Comments about Shimano ES-51 Deore LX Bottom Bracket:
The non-drive side was a little tight when installing.
Make sure you look for the same part listed twice, but perhaps cheaper. The Jenson guy on the phone indicated that they sometimes purchase the same part from different suppliers and because of that, the price on the same part can vary.
Comments about Shimano ES-51 Deore LX Bottom Bracket:
I wouldn't buy this one, maybe the ES-71 V2 is better, I plan on replacing this one with that one, if it's not any better than I'll go back to ISIS.

About Rudimental
About Rudimental
While a wave of bands has emerged from London's underground music scene, perhaps none carries with it the notoriety and fame of Rudimental – four men who have taken the music world by storm.
Consisting of Piers Aggett, Amir Amor, Kesi Dryden and Leon Rolle, Rudimental rose to prominence in 2012 behind their massive No. 1 single "Feel The Love." It was that cut that earned the guys global recognition, and it came fast and furious. They were nominated for a Mercury Prize and a Brit Award. The latter earned them Best Single of the Year for the song "Waiting All Night," featuring then unknown singer Ella Eyre. They also captured a Mobo Award for Best Album, and were nominated at the MTV Europe Music Awards for Best New Act, and Best UK and Ireland Act.
Behind what the band says is a much more traditional songwriting approach, Rudimental also touts its mix live instrumentation with digital programming. Essentially, it's the formula perfected after years of raves, listening to pirate radio and dub tapes. The resulting sound captures each member's musical journey prior to forming Rudimental, and fans are digging on the group's energy, layered basslines, live instruments and contagious hooks.
Rudimental has toured extensively in the UK, as well as in Europe, Australia and throughout the United States in 2013. They were invited by Jay Z's label Roc Nation to perform at the Made in America Festival in Philadelphia, and remembered for shows at the Outsidelands in San Francisco. Their worldly trek has continued into 2014 behind a sold out UK tour.

Snow Shortens Rendleman Invitational; Men's Golf Comes In 14th
March 2, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Slow putting greens due to snow caused the Rendleman Inviational at the Salisbury Country Club to be shortened down to an 18-hole event instead of the planned 36-holes due to wintry weather on Tuesday. After play had started, tournament officials elected to call off the second round due to the snow. Pfeiffer Universitys men finished 16th in the 18 team field.
Laurence Noott led the Falcons with a Monday round of 75 (36/39) finishing T-34. Marc Kourie (39/38) put together a 77 with Parker Robertson firing a 79 (37/42). Cameron Fields and Jonathan Miles each shot 80 and 81 in the first round, which held up as the final round scores.
Playing in back-to-back weeks, the men will now have a week and a half break before hosting the Piney Preamble the weekend of March 12-13.

PIQUA — A case that began in Indiana and ended in Miami County has investigators from Ohio and Indiana working together to solve the Easter day incident.
Local authorities received information that a female subject was reportedly stabbed sometime early Sunday morning in Ft. Wayne and that she and the man who allegedly stabbed her might be on their way to the Piqua area. The victim, who was reported to have been stabbed multiple times and her alleged assailant drove to Piqua and where he dropped her off at a relative's, or friend's home. She was then transported to Upper Valley Medical Center for treatment.
As information about the case was being gathered by Miami County law enforcement agencies, a traffic crash was reported in the 1500 block of Nicklin Avenue in Piqua.
According to Lt. Marcos Rodriguez of the Piqua Police Department, the crash occurred at 5:47 p.m. and officers on the scene found an SUV that had crashed into a parked vehicle. Rodriquez said that it was determined that the SUV involved in the crash was the one that was wanted in connection with the stabbing.
The driver of the vehicle, Tommy Townsend, 45, was arrested at the scene. He faces a charge of OVI from Piqua police in connection with the crash.
The vehicle was impounded. Detectives from Ft. Wayne arrived early Sunday evening to interview the suspect, who was under guard at UVMC and the victim, who was transported to a Dayton-area hospital for further treatment, and to execute a search warrant on the vehicle.
Ft. Wayne police are, "in the process of requesting a warrant for his (Townsend's) arrest from the Allen County (Indiana) prosecutor's office," said Mike Joiner, public information officer for Ft. Wayne police. Joiner said that one of the charges will be aggravated battery. Joiner said, "At some point we will seek extradition from your jurisdiction, back here."
Townsend was released from the hospital and transferred to the Miami County jail where he faces the OVI charge. He is also awaiting the filing of charges by Ft. Wayne police.
The victim's name and condition has not been released.

MISENHEIMER, N.C. – Junior guard Domonique China (Durham, NC) posted a triple-double with 13 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists leading Pfeiffer University past St. Andrews 81-64 in Conference Carolinas women's basketball action on Saturday night. The win snaps a five-game skid for the Lady Falcons as they improve to 12-13 overall, 12-8 in league play. St. Andrews, dressing just five players hung tough, but sees their mark fall to 3-20, 1-18.
Pfeiffer started the night on a 10-0 run thanks in part to a pair of baskets by Christina Harvey (Locust Grove, VA). Megan Lee's (Cillicothe, OH) bucket put the Knights on the board with a jumper at 17:11 before a Jacquese Smith (Raleigh, NC) steal and lay in cut the deficit down to four. Kayla Hay (Hanover, IN) trimmed the lead down to one with 13:53 to go before Pfeiffer jumped out on a 9-2 run. Shelley Reese (Brown Summit, NC) knocked down a three and jumper sparking the streak.
Another basket by Reese at the 4:07 mark put the Lady Falcons up 13, 30-17, as St. Andrews was able to cut the lead back to single-digits with under a minute to play. Lee would hit another jumper with 53 ticks left as Pfeiffer would take a 34-26 lead into the half.
The Knights would come out and hit several early shots in the second half to make it a five point contest on another toss in by Lee at the 16:23 mark. A three-point play by Smith would slice the Pfeiffer lead down to three at 12:15 before a Sylvee Ubiera (Westport, MA) field goal tied the contest 50-50 with 9:33 to play.
A 12-0 run then led the Lady Falcons to a 62-50 lead on a China bucket with 5:40 remaining. Brittany Roberts (Concord, NC) would drain on three to bring the Knights to within a half-dozen at the 3:48 mark but another 13-3 run by the hosts sealed the deal with 52 seconds remaining.
Needing one point, board and assist inside the final 23 seconds for the triple-double, China pulled down the tenth rebound on a missed three by Roberts, made two late free throws and assisted on Charlotte Fuller's (Moorestown, NJ) with eight seconds left.
Hay led all scorers with 23 points on the night. Lee tallied 18 while Smith finished with 14 to pace the Knights. Jamila Harris (Danville, VA) notched a team-high 18 for the Lady Falcons. Harvey finished with 14, China 13, Reese and Devona Knight (Woodbridge, VA) each had 11.
Pfeiffer returns to action on Wednesday traveling to Hartsville, SC for a matchup with Coker at 5:30 p.m.

Massie won election to the U.S. House in 2012. He defeated Alecia Webb-Edgington, Gary Moore, Brian Oerther, Tom Wurtz, Marc Carey and Walter Christian Schumm in the Republican primary. He defeated Bill Adkins (D) and David Lewis (I) in the general election on November 6, 2012.[1]
He is set to run for re-election to the U.S. House in 2014. If he runs, he will seek the Republican nomination in the primary election. The general election took place November 4, 2014.
Based on analysis of multiple outside rankings, Massie is a more moderate right of center Republican Party vote. As a result, he may break with the Republican Party line more than his fellow members.
Massie was born and raised in Vanceburg, Kentucky, and then went to attend the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. There he earned his undergraduate degree and then later a masters degree. Massie and his wife started SensAble Technologies where they sought to market products. Eventually they moved back to Kentucky where they started a farm.[2]

National security
American response in Syria
- See also: United States involvement in Syria
Massie said on September 4, 2013, that he believes the opposition to congressional approval to use force in Syria could prevail, though it will be difficult.[7]
"I think if the vote were today it would fail," Massie said. "And I'm hopeful, but I'm well aware that once members return to D.C. they are going to be under a lot of pressure, particularly if our leadership and the committee chairmen are for this engagement, and after a week in D.C. some of the lean nos could become leans yes. I'm concerned about that."[7]
DHS Appropriations
Massie voted against HR 2217 - the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 and was largely along party lines.[8]
Keystone Pipeline Amendment
Massie voted against House Amendment 69, which would have amended HR 3 to "require that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, conduct a study of the vulnerabilities of the Keystone XL pipeline to a terrorist attack and certify that necessary protections have been put in place." The amendment failed on May 22, 2013, with a vote of 176 - 239 and was largely along party lines.[8]
Massie voted against HR 624 - the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act. The bill passed the House on April 18, 2013, with a vote of 288 - 127. The bill would allow federal intelligence agencies to share cybersecurity intelligence and information with private entities and utilities.[9] The bill was largely supported by Republicans, but divided the Democratic Party.[8]
Massie voted against HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote.[8]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.[10] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.[11] Massie voted against the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.[12]
The shutdown finally ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funds the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[13] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Massie voted against HR 2775.[14]
Paul Ryan Budget Proposal
In March 2013 the Republican controlled House passed the budget proposal set out by Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan (R) for the third straight year.[15] However, not all Republican representatives voted in favor of the proposal.[15] Massie was one of the 10 Republican Representatives who voted against Ryan's budget proposal.[15]
The proposal was killed after being voted down in the U.S. Senate with a 40-59 vote.[16]
The proposal would have cut about $5 trillion over the next decade and aimed to balance the budget by the end of the 10-year period.[15] The 2013 bill had opposition from 10 Republicans — the same number that voted against it in 2012. In 2011 only four Republicans cast a vote in opposition.[15] Democrats have unanimously voted against the bill every year.[15]
Morton Memos Prohibition
Massie voted in favor of House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain illegal aliens residing in the United States. The vote largely followed party lines.[8]
Health Care Reform Rules
Massie voted in favor of House Amendment 450 - Requires Congressional Approval for Any Rules Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The amendment was adopted by the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 227-185. The amendment requires all changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act be approved by Congress before taking effect. The vote was largely along party lines.[8]
Keep the IRS Off Your Health Care Act
Massie voted in favor of HR 2009 - Keep the IRS Off Your Health Care Act of 2013. The bill passed through the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 232-185. The bill would prevent the IRS and Treasury Secretary from enforcing the powers provided to them in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The vote largely followed party lines.[8]
Social issues
Amash amendment
Massie voted in favor of House Amendment 413 - Prohibits the National Security Agency from Collecting Records Under the Patriot Act. The amendment failed on July 4, 2013, by a vote of 205-217. The amendment would have prohibited the collection of records by the National Security Agency under the Patriot Act. Both parties were split on the vote.[8]
Previous congressional sessions
Fiscal Cliff
Massie voted against the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. He was 1 of 151 Republicans that voted against the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013.[17]
Conservative Fight Club
According to the conservative website RedState, Massie is 1 of 16 U.S. House members in the "Conservative Fight Club", a designation meant to describe the gold standard of conservatives, as outlined by RedState. They are the 16 Republicans who voted against the continuing appropriations resolution to avoid the impending government shutdown in March. This type of resolution is used to fund government agencies when a formal federal budget has not been approved.[18]
Massie is set to run for re-election to the U.S. House in 2014. If he runs, he will seek the Republican nomination in the primary election. The general election took place November 4, 2014.
Massie ran in the 2012 election for the U.S. House, representing Kentucky's 4th District. Massie won the nomination on the Republican ticket. [19] Massie defeated Alecia Webb-Edgington, Gary Moore, Brian Oerther, Tom Wurtz, Marc Carey and Walter Christian Schumm in the Republican primary. He defeated Bill Adkins (D) and David Lewis (I) in the general election on November 6, 2012.

Shoots already?
Pupils from Oakfield Primary School asked: 'When will the bulbs sprout?'
Normally, I would say 'nothing much will happen until after Christmas', but some bulbs have already decided to pop up through the soil!
Pupils from Pentrepoeth Junior School reported: 'We were very surprised to find the shoots and we have now noticed a few more in our flowerbeds. I am attaching a photo for you to see.'
From studying the photograph, although I can't be 100% sure, they certainly look like daffodil shoots. Compare my photograph from last year - what do you think?
Please leave a comment if you see any early shoots or email any photographs to email@example.com
Many Thanks, Professor Plant
Thousands of young scientists study climate change
National Museum Wales is working with 3,600 young scientists to investigate and understand climate change.
Over the past few weeks bulbs and pots have been delivered to schools and home educators all across Wales - ready for the big planting day on the 20th October. Some schools have sent in some lovely pictures and reported on how excited the children are to be taking part.
From now until the end of March 2010 each young scientist will be recording the weather and flowering dates of their Daffodil and Crocus bulbs as part or a long-term study looking at the effects of temperature changes on spring bulbs.
The study started in 2005, and will hopefully continue for many years to come. To see the results so far or to sign up for next year please visit Spring Bulbs for Schools
Each pupil will work through Professor Plant's tasks to be awarded a Super Scientist Certificate and the most dedicated school will win a trip to the Really Welsh Daffodil Farm and Kenfig Nature Reserve. The Really Welsh company kindly donated all the daffodils for this experiment - which are grown in good Welsh soil at Kenfig, near Bridgend.
Watch this blog to see some of the schools reports & observations - or watch the picture diary in the spring.
If you are taking part and would like to send Professor Plant a question - then please get in touch. Professor Plant would love to hear from you.

[Right] Tinkerbell at intake, and again two months after receiving treatment.
The ASPCA Humane Law Enforcement (HLE) department has made arrests in two truly shocking cases of neglect.
On February 26, HLE Agents arrested Manhattan resident Peter Morin, 60, over the neglect of his 11-year-old Shih Tzu, Tinkerbell.
Staff at a dog grooming salon knew something was wrong when they met Tinkerbell, so they did the right thing: They called the ASPCA. Our Agents located Morin, who agreed to relinquish Tinkerbell. We rushed her to get the veterinary attention she needed.
At ASPCA Animal Hospital, veterinarians found Tinkerbell to be blind and in pain due to untreated kidney disease. They also found her to have dental disease, hair matting, dried discharge, debris all over her coat and overgrown nails.
Under our care, Tinkerbell has regained some sight and is recovering from her other ailments. She'll eventually be made available for adoption.
[Below] Biggie upon intake at the ASPCA Hospital, and again on the day of his adoption with his new family.
Just a day after Morin's arrest, ASPCA Agents arrested Brooklyn resident Marvin Silver, 24. Last April, Silver surrendered his dog, a three-year-old Pit mix named Biggie, to Animal Care & Control of NYC.
At the time, Biggie was just 45.2 pounds and showed signs of neglect. Staff at the shelter alerted the ASPCA to his condition, and we responded right away.
ASPCA veterinarians found Biggie to be weak, emaciated and dehydrated. They concluded he had been starved. Two months after receiving treatment, Biggie's weight increased to 71.1 pounds—a 57 percent gain. Biggie was adopted February 7 by a Staten Island family.
Both Morin and Silver have been charged with one count of misdemeanor animal cruelty. If they are convicted, they face up to a year in jail and/or a $1,000 fine.
If you suspect you've witnessed animal abuse or neglect, please report it. You may just save a life.
How wonderful that this nice family adopted this tortured dog. May Biggie find peace, love and care with these good people. Also, thank you to the Humane Law Enforcement Officers for the difficult, heart and gut wrenching work they do. Blessings all around.
You are safe and cared for now, Tinkerbell. I know that a nice family will come along to adopt you and give you the love you deserve. Thank you and salutes to the marvelous doctors at the ASPCA Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital for saving Tinkerbell's life and for giving her a real chance at happiness.
There should be prisons where they get reciprocity and are tortured in return, Chain them 24/7, no bathroom,
, daily beatings, etc. And wild lions are guards and the warden a tortured pittbull, Let's see how long animal abuse lasts then.
Animal abuse is so sad to hear about why would we hurt mans bestfriend i cant imagine hurting an animal they feel just like us they cry and suffer they know what pain is poor babys
Morin and Silver got what was coming to them. This is just wrong on all levels. They are luck the charge was not worse. To the adopting family, thank you for giving Tinkerbell a good home.
Both before and after pics look like two different dogs. If you don't want to take care of an animal, don't get one. I wish I was allowed to have a cat or small dog in my apartment. Fortunately I can have small animals. I spoil my gerbil rotten and need to get her a new tankmate.
You must have a chemical imbalance or mental illness to think its logically okay to do this to any animal. Because any person in their right mind can't conceive of neglecting an animal this bad or starving it!
I had a pet sitting client of 2 years that I had to report to the County Animal control. I had to think long & hard about the consequences before taking action. She did just what I thought she would - start posting negative reviews about my business. stating "made fraudulent reports to the health department." Thank goodness I was able to rebuttal the negative reviews.
" have pet sat for this cat owner since 2010. When I sat for her 7 cats 7/5/12-7/8/12 the conditions in the home were unsafe, unsanitary & unhealthy. 2 over flowing litter boxes in addition to 30 plastic grocery bags & 4 - 20lbs Tidy Cat plastic bins filled with cat waste. There was urine, feces, and vomit all over the basement. The cats were defecating & urinating wherever they wanted.
The year prior I had voluntarily helped the cat owner when I was caring for her cats by bringing up 3 or 4 - 20lbs Tidy Cat plastic bins filled with cat waste I had found in the basement. I left her note letting her know what I had done for her & offered her help if she needed help keeping up with the cats in the future.
As a respected professional in my industry I have a professional obligation as a pet sitter to look out for the best interest of the animals in my care. I thought long & hard before making my decision & had to do what was best for the cats. Living in their own waste, defecating & urinating wherever they want, or in an over flowing litter box is a very unhealthy & unsanitary condition. On 7/9/2012 I reported the pet owner to the Lake County Dept. of Animal Control stating the cats were very loved by the pet owner, well fed, & have veterinary care as needed. However, there is a cat waste hoarding issue that is unhealthy for myself, her & the cats to be in. I did advise them I took photos of the conditions if they would like to see them. I was told they were not necessary at that time. They would go out & investigate the situation.
Thursday July 19, 2012 I called the Lake County Dept. of Animal Control to follow up & was advised they had not heard back from the pet owner after leaving 2 door hangers notices for her. So it is evident that the pet owner cleaned up the cat waste in her basement before responding to them & letting them in her home 2 weeks later on 7/20/2012.
Yes my actions upset the pet owner & caused me to lose a client. However, I did what was in the best interest of the cats in this case. And the result was the cat waste they were all living in was cleaned up & they have a healthy living environment. I previously offered the owner help & it was not acknowledge, accepted or asked for. I could no longer continue to turn a blind eye after 3 years to what was disgusting, unhealthy & unsanitary living conditions. I have continued to hold on to these photos in case my actions are brought into moral or legal questioning." http://www.shannonspetsitting.net
Thankfully from the free back I have received her negative reviews have not impacted my business & just made me look like the better pet & animal professional for dong what was in the best interest of the animals. I can't sit back & watch an animal suffer - it not in my nature. But I'm glad she now under the radar of the county who I'm sure will be monitoring her & her cats!
This makes me furious that someone would neglect these two adorable dogs! I want to cry when I see their "before" pictures. Thank God for the people that saved them! I would like to hurt the people who did this to them.
I thank all the people who have adopted animals from neglect.
i hate wen i see what people do to animals it makes me digusted

|Introduction | Pentax MX-1 sensor performance | Pentax MX-1 versus competition | Conclusion
Although Pentax is a bit late to the high-end compact camera party, the MX-1 is a solid entrant. With good low-light performance, the MX-1 is well suited for capturing sports and delivers image quality that rivals its more established competitors like the Canon S110 and Panasonic LX7. It's heftier than most of its competition, especially the slim S110, but Its retro design will appeal to high-end, enthusiast shooters who don't mind carrying a bit more bulk in return for style.
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
To website
The Pentax MX-1 is a 12MP high-end compact camera with a fast 28-112mm equivalent zoom lens - the first camera of its type that Pentax has created. With a rich history in camera design, it seems fair that Pentax would seek to recapture the two-tone camera designs of the last century with its MX-1 enthusiast compact (the MX-1 is also available in an all-black model as well). A metal top and bottom and a leather-like band around the middle provide a gripable surface as well as a classic look. Thanks to the painted brass top and bottom plates, we're told users will enjoy that old tendency toward 'brassing' exhibited in well-used vintage cameras as the MX-1 accumulates wear. We haven't yet bashed the Pentax MX-1 around enough to test this feature, but there's still time.

Springbok and Bath flank Francois Louw has been cleared of punching by an RFU judiciary.
Louw received a red card and was subsequently cited following an incident in a Premiership game between Bath and Leicester last Saturday.
The matchday referee ruled that Louw had transgressed the laws of the game, and the citing commissioner clearly felt the flanker deserved further punishment.
But it has since been confirmed that Louw will not be subject to suspension, and the citing has been dismissed.

Bryan Habana has answered his critics in the best possible way this season – through his performances on the field.
After a disappointing 2011, Habana re-emerged in the 2012 Super Rugby competition as one of the form wings and returned to the national set-up rejuvenated and renewed. He turned in consistent showings for the Stormers, solid performances shot through with a characteristic crowd-raising brilliance. And if the man himself is to be believed, that was just a starting point.
'I've gone back to basics,' he says in the new issue of SA Rugby magazine. 'I've found myself in the right place at the right time, whereas in the past year or two maybe I wasn't in that kind of position.
'When things aren't going your way, you tend to overwork yourself. You know you should allow the ball to come to you in space, but when it doesn't, you go looking for it, sometimes unnecessarily. This season, certain things have made all the difference.'
Habana goes on to explain what those things are, while Stormers attack coach Robbie Fleck provides some insight into Habana's struggles last year.
The winger also talks about what it's like working with Heyneke Meyer, competition for the Bok No 11 jersey and mentoring tomorrow's stars.
Also in the new issue:
– Keo on why the Kings should not have appointed a Kiwi coach
– How Cheetahs hooker Adriaan Strauss powered his way into Springbok contention
– The Bulls have given JJ Engelbrecht the opportunities he was denied at the Stormers
– Tim Whitehead has helped to solve the Sharks' problems in midfield
– Former France prop Pieter de Villiers on how he got into coaching, the technical aspects of the scrum, and why it is such an important part of the game
– A once-proud New Zealand franchise has fallen on hard times. The big question is: Can the Blues find a way back?
– In his most revealing interview since winning the World Cup, Graham Henry talks about the pressures of the All Blacks job, the effect it had on his family, and what he's up to now
– Wallabies captain David Pocock is not your average rugby player
– Ruan Pienaar had an outstanding season for Ulster
– Former Free State prop Daniel Kotze has become the cornerstone of the Clermont scrum
– Gary Gold on his short stint at Newcastle, the challenge he faces at Bath, and the issue that fractured his relationship with Peter de Villiers
– The Blitzboks' poor World Series campaign highlighted flaws in the national sevens system
– All professional rugby players should have a post-retirement plan

Yesterday, President Bush signed the Higher Education Opportunity Act, the official reauthorization of the Higher Education Act (HEA) which governs federal student financial aid for college, as well as other federal programs and regulations that pertain to higher education.
Under the new version of the HEA students can expect a number of benefits when it comes to finding money for college. Some of the changes include:
The National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators also offers a point-by-point breakdown of the Higher Education Opportunity Act on their website.

For everyone currently slogging their way through scholarship applications and college placement tests, as well as all of you gearing up for Composition, Creative Writing, or other English-related classes, here's a bit of fun. Take a break from writing your own bids for essay scholarships and enjoy some really bad writing. San Jose State University just announced the 2008 winners of the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest, an annual challenge to craft the worst opening line for a novel. Named after the man who penned the famous opening line "It was a dark and stormy night," the competition seeks to give proper recognition to terrible prose.
This year's winner was penned by Garrison Spik of Washington, DC:
Theirs was a New York love, a checkered taxi ride burning rubber, and like the city their passion was open 24/7, steam rising from their bodies like slick streets exhaling warm, moist, white breath through manhole covers stamped "Forged by DeLaney Bros., Piscataway, N.J."
Even if you decide not to try your hand at fiction, perusing the Bulwer-Lytton contest winners could enrich your life in other ways beyond simple entertainment. See all of those flowery, adjective-rich lines that seem to go on forever with their archaic and polysyllabic prose that looks like what would happen if someone cut the thesaurus apart and taped it back together to form a sentence? That would be writing to avoid submitting to scholarship essay contests ( poetry contests, too). While flexing your writing to its full extent is always tempting, there are limits. When a sentence becomes difficult to read and a metaphor, image, anecdote, or quote is stretched further than it can reasonably go, or plopped down with no clear context provided, an otherwise brilliant attempt at winning scholarships can fall flat. Even though School House Rock tells you to unpack your adjectives, the Bulwer-Lytton contest reminds us that in some instances it may be wise to leave a few of them put away.

It's that time again! Most students attending college will be starting school in the coming weeks, and as move-in day and the first day of classes approach, now is a good time to make sure you're all set to begin the semester. Once you know you're ready to go, you can sit back and enjoy what remains of your summer, possibly even squeezing in a last-minute camping trip or road trip.

Nearly 17% more students completed a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) between January and June 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 according to a report released last month by the Department of Education. Several states, including California and North Carolina, have seen an even more marked increase, with at least 20% more students applying for federal student financial aid for college this calendar year.
This increase in applications for financial aid is largely attributed to the rising cost of a college education, the recent loan crunch, and the general economic downturn, which are all making it more difficult for families to completely cover the cost of tuition. More people may also be applying for financial aid due to increased awareness of its existence, thanks to recent news coverage of financial aid issues.
Aside from longer lines at the financial aid office in the fall, this news is likely to have little impact on students attending college this year (although you may want to apply early for a work-study job lest you discover that the only available job is on the receiving end of that financial aid line). Aid programs with limited funds, such as state grants and campus-based programs like Perkins Loans and work-study jobs, could potentially be exhausted a bit earlier this year, but students still procrastinating on applying for financial aid should still fill out a FAFSA if they haven't missed their school's deadline. Federal aid, such as Stafford Loans and Pell Grants, is still available to late applicants, and as long as they haven't missed any deadlines, students could still manage to receive awards given on a first come, first serve basis.
For students considering financial aid for the 2009-2010 academic year, we recommend deciding early whether you intend to apply for federal aid (not sure? Use a college cost worksheet to estimate your actual cost of attendance), researching your school's financial aid and scholarship application deadlines (especially since some institutional scholarships are need-based), doing your taxes as soon as possible, and completing the FAFSA on the Web in January or February (or as far in advance of the deadline as possible) to ensure that you're considered for all the aid for which you're qualified (to get an idea, you can use the Department of Education's FAFSA4caster). Also, continue to conduct regular scholarship searches and to apply for scholarships, since scholarships continue to be the best way to make up the difference between what college costs and what you can afford to pay for school.

Earlier this week, Massachusetts Governor Deval L. Patrick asked his state's wealthiest universities (such as Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology) to help bail out the Massachusetts Education Financing Authority (MEFA), which announced last week that it would not be able to provide loans to over 40,000 students this fall. However, as an article published today in The Chronicle of Higher Education explains, many parties regard this request as well-intentioned but highly problematic, mainly due to recent lawsuits and legislation regarding potential conflicts of interest in relationships between colleges and student loan providers. The Massachusetts state treasurer, who vetoed the governor's request to invest money in MEFA, stated that bailing out MEFA was not a good investment and could set a dangerous precedent for use of state funds. While several colleges said they would consider investing in MEFA to help them provide enough loans to be able to receive assistance from the federal government, none have yet said yes, and many express concerns about what people will think of their relationship with the lending agency once the economy recovers. When viewed in light of last year's preferred lender list scandal, such hesitation is understandable.
However, while both sides of this issue have adopted positions based on sound principles and the belief in doing what will ultimately be best for students, thousands of students are still left in a lurch when it comes to finding money for college. With the new Higher Education Act still sitting on President Bush's desk, and the school year fast approaching, many families, and not just ones in Massachusetts, may be struggling to find ways to pay for school. It's never too late to start applying for financial aid, though! Students who haven't yet done so should complete a FAFSA on the Web, which could potentially qualify you for federal grant programs. Once you've received your financial aid award letter, be sure to talk to your school's financial aid office, especially if you plan on receiving loans. Finally, students of all ages should also check out our free scholarship search, as there are scholarships being awarded year-round, and scholarship awards can be one of the best means of funding your education.
