Keo.co.za brings you news related to the World Cup.
Half-time extended by two minutes – The IRB has confirmed the half-time length for the 2011 World Cup matches will be increased to 12 minutes.
IRB head of the Rugby World Cup Kit McConnell said the longer break had already been tested in the northern hemisphere, and that the laws of the game were changed in November by members of the IRB Council to allow half-times up to 15 minutes.
'International matches in the northern hemisphere go to around twelve-and-a-half minutes including matches the All Blacks have played in recent northern hemisphere tours, so it's not unusual,' McConnell said.
McConnell denied rumours that the IRB was considering instating a half-time break of 20 minutes. He also said that the proposal of a 12-minute break was put to the various teams earlier in the year.
'There's a number of factors obviously to consider, one is the teams and we sought feedback from a number of the teams before making the final decision.
"The second one is the venue operations and a large part of the reason the English Premiership went to 15 minutes is to help out the spectators and alleviate the crush on toilets and food and beverages at half-time. Obviously there's broadcast considerations also in terms of half-time analysis and commercial breaks.
'When we looked at what was happening around the world we decided 12 minutes was probably a very good result to balance all those considerations.'
Fiji wait on Nacewa – Leinster utility back Isa Nacewa will be given time to decide whether he wants to represent Fiji at the World Cup or not.
Nacewa told British media this week he had yet to decide whether he would play at the tournament after a long season with Leinster. The formers Blues player, who already has one Fiji cap, plans to discuss the matter with his family before making a final decision in the next two weeks.
'We've already had our chats with him [Nacewa]. Now the ball is in his hands,' coach Sam Domoni said. 'He now has to manage and make sure what is beneficial to him. We all want him to come and he understands that. So he's got to manoeuver his club and his family.
'For us it's a family concept – family comes first in everything we do. If the heart is not with us, then he cannot execute what is required of him. We cannot force anybody to come.'
Fiji last week named the first 43 members of a 50-man preparation squad, leaving seven places open.
If Nacewa decides to join the team, he will come against the Springboks during the pool stages of the global tournament.

Toddler's death: Mother was of unsound mind at the time of alleged offence
Published on Jan 14, 2014 4:09 PM
The woman accused of murdering her baby son, who was found in the waters off Bedok Jetty last November, has been found fit to have her plea taken, but was of unsound mind at the time of the alleged offence.
The prosecution told the court this when Lim Ann Nee's case came up for mention on Tuesday.
The 44-year-old woman has been charged with causing the death of her 17-month-old son in the sea off East Coast Park on Nov 25 last year. Emilien Lacroix's body was found floating about 300m from Bedok Jetty three hours later, after being spotted by a passenger on a passing boat.
Lim had been remanded at Changi Women's Prison for psychiatric evaluation.

quick bodyfat reduction?
quick bodyfat reduction?
I might get a model shoot if I can lose 6 or more pounds of bodyfat while retaining muscle. The catch is that I have a month to do this. What would be the best way to go about this. Training, cardio, diet, ect.... I just dont want to shrink up to nothing. I am currently weight training 4 days a week. My cardio has been 10-20 mins a couple times a week. My diet has not been great but I am thinking about doing something like oat meal and whole eggs for breakfast, protein shakes as snacks, 1/2 cup rice broc & lean turkey for lunch, and the samething for dinner but with a small lean steak instead. My stats are currently 165lbs with a little over 8 percents bodyfat.

If you are 8% BF then your fat is negligible and losing 6lb of fat while maintaining muscle would put you down to about 4%. I would have thought this level of BF is only needed for BB competitions and not photo-shoots.
If you want to lose fat while retaining as much muscle as possible then you need to:
- Cut calories so you are on a deficit but not too much of a deficit otherwise you will lose muscle. Carb cycling can work well.
- Increase cardio and incorporate some HIIT cardio into your schedule
- Make sure you get enough protein. This should be at least 1g per lb of bodyweight and 1.5g per lb is better
- Change your weight training to circuit style. Short breaks with higher reps.
- Some people use a diuretic a few days before a shoot to get rid of any excess water and have the hardened/dry look
definitely diet and hiit, cut carbs in the beginning, then up carbs the final days to add fullness to your muscles and deplete water the last day or so. I believe potassium can help you do this as well as a diuretic like mentioned above.
Thank you men. I dont know what I was looking for here. I will just diet my ass off and do lot of cardio and hiit. I just dont know if I can cut that fast without losing a lot of muscle.

Haverford College is pleased to have the support of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation in establishing an endowed fellowship program designed to nurture the professional potential of an emerging generation of young humanists. As a liberal arts college dedicated to the complementary pursuits of excellent teaching and advanced scholarship, Haverford has a profound stake in ensuring continuity in the tradition of scholar-teachers. We likewise believe that an institution such as ours, with its opportunities for faculty development through intimate interdisciplinary exchange and innovative pedagogy, provides an ideal setting for cultivating the creative energies of young scholars. At the same time, Haverford has much to gain from the steady infusion of fresh intellectual and pedagogical perspectives brought by the Fellows from their recent university training and experience.
Haverford's program for Mellon Post-Doctoral Fellows is organized to provide five key instruments of professional advancement: meaningful teaching (Fellows teach one course per term, with the expectation that they will supplement the curriculum with innovative course designs); collaborative intellectual exploration (through participation during the first year in the year-long John B. Hurford '60 Center for the Arts and Humanities Faculty Seminar); interaction with the broader world of scholarship and public life (focused in the Fellowship's second year through the staging of a symposium connected to the Fellow's teaching and research interests); mentoring (through association with host departments and programs, as well as the Faculty Seminar); and the time and resources for scholarly endeavor (a reduced teaching load, support for research, and funds for travel to professional conferences).
The search criteria will reflect the topic of the upcoming Faculty Seminar: "Revision: How Time Passes," led by Jill Stauffer (Philosophy/Peace, Justice and Human Rights).
Deadline: Jan. 13, 2014

Titans WR Britt faces more legal trouble in NJ
Nashville police stopped him in August during training camp, ticketing him for driving without a license because he obtained a photo ID after misplacing his license.
He also was accused of being involved in a bar fight Oct. 22 in Nashville, but authorities later decided not to charge him.
Titans coach Jeff Fisher benched Britt after repeated mistakes during a preseason game.
Britt left Rutgers after his junior season and was the Titans' first-round draft pick in 2009. He tied for second on the Titans with 42 catches in 2010 and led all Tennessee receivers with 9 touchdowns and a per-catch average of 18.5 yards.

Slight Uptick In Yellowstone Visitation For First Five Months Of 2014
National Park Service

Slight Uptick In Yellowstone Visitation For First Five Months Of 2014
Visitation to Yellowstone National Park for the month of May and for the first five months of 2014 is up almost six percent compared to the previous year.
Visitation to the world's first national park begins to pick up in May as weather improves and interior roads and visitor facilities begin to open to the public.
There were 310,039 recreational visitors to Yellowstone in May and a total of 415,185 for the first five months of 2014. That compares to 293,250 recreational visitors for May 2013 and 392,222 recreational visitors for January through May 2013.
Visitation at each of the park's five entrances for the month of May and for the first five months of 2014 is up compared to 2013 levels.
Visitation statistics are calculated by taking the actual number of wheeled vehicles entering the park gates, and using a person-per-vehicle multiplier to calculate the number of monthly recreational visitors.
July is typically the park's peak visitation month, followed in order by August, June, September, and May.
Detailed park visitation information and additional information on how these statistics are calculated is available online at https://irma.nps.gov/Stats/Reports/ReportList.

Ige, Abercrombie reveal plans if elected
HONOLULU — Hawaii state Sen. David Ige said his first priority if he is elected governor would be to submit a balanced budget and collect $450 million in unpaid taxes. Gov. Neil Abercrombie wants to prioritize affordable housing and smart growth.
The Democratic rivals shared details of their plans for the next four years on Wednesday, ahead of the Aug. 9 primary.
Ige said he would not raise taxes and he rejected Abercrombie's prior plan to tax retiree pensions, soda, transit accommodations and plastic bags.
"As the chairman of the Senate Ways and Means Committee for the past four years, I crafted a balanced budget in each of those years," Ige said in his proposal. "During that time, I reduced the governor's spending proposals by a total of $1 billion. That is why the state now enjoys an $800 million surplus."
He said his philosophy in budgeting is that the state must operate within its means instead of raising taxes.
Ige's other priorities include increasing domestic and international travel to the state.
Abercrombie said increasing the housing supply is essential to easing homelessness. He said the state should provide an additional $100 million for the Rental Housing Trust Fund to be used for homeless initiatives and micro-units during the next four years.
In releasing their plans, the candidates also clashed about their leadership style.
Ige said he would hold his appointees to a high standard of transparency and accessibility to assure the public that there are no conflicts of interest.
Abercrombie criticized Ige's plan, calling it "vague." But while giving credit to Ige for his work on the budget in the Legislature, Abercrombie joked, "I would be happy to think about finding a position for him in our next administration."
Ige said in an email that he's not sure if the governor had time to read his proposal, and that his plan is a "living document that will be refined over the next four years. It's not a campaign document that shows up and then disappears until the next election."
The winner of the Democratic primary is likely to face Republican James "Duke" Aiona and Independent Party candidate Mufi Hannemann in November.

Rickettsia philipii 364D: Microbiome, Ecology and Potential Risk to Public Health
Presented by: Nikos Gurfield, D.V.M., D.A.C.V.P., Adjunct Professor of Pathology,
UC San Diego County Veterinarian, San Diego County Vector Disease and Diagnostic Laboratory
A new rickettsial disease was described in California in 2010 which caused swelling, erythema and ulceration at the site of a presumed tick bite. Biopsy of the affected skin revealed the genetic material of a rickettsia closely related to Rickettsia rickettsii, an organism called Rickettsia philipii 364D, that was first detected in Ventura County, CA, in 1966.
Four additional pediatric cases of 364D-induced disease were subsequently described and additional cases in California reported.
In order to assess the potential risk of 364D to public health in San Diego County, the San Diego County Vector Control Program/Vector Disease and Diagnostic Laboratory conducted a study to determine if 364D was present in Dermacentor occidentalis ticks in San Diego County.
Furthermore, the microbiome of ticks with and without 364D organisms was explored to determine if the microbial diversity within ticks affects the ability of D. occidentalis to harbor 364D. The preliminary results of this study will be presented in this talk.
This and all other lectures in the Seminar Series will be held at the Beckman Center Meeting Room, (next to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in Escondido) at 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. unless otherwise noted.
Address to the Beckman Center:
15600 San Pasqual Valley Road
Escondido, California 92027

BPDCN is a relatively uncommon hematologic cancer of plasmacytoid dendritic cells, which are specialized immune cells that circulate throughout the bloodstream, bone marrow, and many other organs. In BPDCN, the cancer cells typically reside and grow in the skin and bone marrow. Their growth in the bone marrow results in decreased blood cell counts, thereby causing serious infections, bleeding, and invariably death. Although BPDCN can be controlled for brief periods with standard chemotherapy that is used to treat other hematologic cancers, meaningful clinical responses are rare and such treatment often produces serious side effects. There are no therapies approved to treat BPDCN. BPDCN cells express high levels of IL-3R on their cell surface, which served as the rationale for treating the patient with SL-401, which specifically targets the IL-3R. SL-401 has also demonstrated clinical activity in other hematologic malignancies that overexpress IL-3R, including AML and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Other malignancies in which high levels of the IL-3R are expressed include Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), and multiple myeloma. Preclinical studies of SL-401 in these cancers have demonstrated favorable anticancer activity. SL-401 is currently being advanced into a registration-directed Phase 2b study in advanced stage AML.

Community Notes
Jon Masters follows the recent foibles surrounding DRM – Digital Rights Management – and gives a roundup of the latest news from a variety of Linux community groups.
February was a month filled with discussions around DRM. News stories, blogs, editorials, LUG discussions – you name it – DRM was a hot topic. It all started when Apple CEO Steve Jobs posted a blog-style editorial on the Apple corporate website defending Apple's much-publicized use of DRM technology in products like iTunes and the iPod. His editorial was timed, in part, to coincide with reports of mounting criticism in Europe of the difficulties faced by third parties who want to interoperate with the "FairPlay" DRM technology Apple uses to lock up its digital media. Did I say "lock up"? I'm sorry, I meant "protect you from yourself."

Worrying developments for freedom of expression in the UK
By VARIOUS - VARIOUS
Added: Tue, 17 Jan 2012 22:52:16 UTC
This thread combines a number of examples where atheists, humanists and/or secularists have been threatened or coerced into silence, both by Muslims and by institutions or other groups apparently subscribing to the view that 'If someone believes it, you must respect it'. All these examples have happened in the UK in the course of the last week or so.
In none of these examples was anyone on the censored side inciting anyone to violence or hatred. They were not even spewing foul-mouthed abuse: they were simply acting in accordance with the principles of free speech in a free society, to express their views. In each case the response has been heavy-handed, to say the least.
Rhys Morgan, who, despite being only 17 years old, is already one of leading lights of the sceptical movement, has apparently received veiled threats of expulsion or suspension from his school if he does not remove a Jesus & Mo image from his personal Facebook page - I am not as yet aware of any similar threat hanging over his Muslim school colleagues who have threatened him with violence, including the threat that they'll burn his home down, though I would certainly hope there is one.
A meeting to advance the cause of One Law For All has had to be called off as a result of death threats from Muslims; whereupon a security guard present blamed the organisers for having had the temerity to arrange such a meeting in the first place.
And we also have the already much-discussed UCL situation which has resulted in predictable outpourings of rage from the usual suspects and in which an atheist society posting on an atheist social networking page for an audience of atheists, and in a way that contained no threats or incitement, has found itself at the centre of a completely disproportionate storm of disapproval, outrage and coercion with a view to forcing it to remove a cartoon. Indeed, we have seen on the pages of this very website how a number of religious users - not all of them Muslim - have called for the cartoon to be censored, or self-censored, which amounts to the same thing.
But the key thing to note in all these cases is that it is no longer just the religious who would inhibit our freedom of expression: increasingly, secular bodies are buying into this invidious idea too, all in the name of 'tolerance' or 'community relations' or 'respect'.
This erosion of our freedom of expression really matters. The reason it's difficult to take a stand against religion and its hold on society is because it has a long tradition of being shielded from criticism and there is therefore a widely held assumption that shielding it is the 'nice' thing to do. Secularists are challenging that shield, and religious people - understandably enough - feel upset and resentful about it. They don't want to be challenged, and they don't want their ideas to be subjected to criticism. I can understand their feeling, but is that a good enough reason to make such challenges unacceptable, either socially or legally? You cannot have a free or healthy society where some ideas may not be challenged, especially when - as in the UK - those ideas have real power and influence in public life. And you certainly can't have a free or healthy society where a person's rights to challenge ideas peacefully are not protected, but the rights of the challenged to respond with threats of death and other violence are (even if only tacitly, by caving in to them and treating those who threaten violence in response to mere ideas as though they were the real victims).
The day I see atheists threatening violence or inciting hatred or indulging in any other kind of threatening behaviour, I will not hesitate to condemn them for it. But so long as they are merely insisting on their right to express their views even though doing so is going to offend those who disagree with them, they must be free to do so.
If we don't stand up for our freedom to express ourselves when that freedom comes under attack, as it has done in many ways this week, then we are tacitly accepting that the campaign for true secularism must be waged with one arm tied behind our backs. If that arm were wielding a knife or a bomb, fair enough; but the only things we want to be allowed to wield are words and ideas and occasionally a bit of mockery; exactly as we would be free to do if we were talking about anything else at all.
Please read these stories and consider how best you can show your support for freedom of expression in the UK. If you want to contact your MP, you will be able to find his or her details via this link.

With the All*Star weekend behind us, the Detroit Red Wings look to get back in the win column. Leading up to the break, the Wings couldn't keep a 8 game winning streak going when the Montreal Canadians embarrassed the Wings 7-2 at the Bell Center on the Wednesday night. "I'm not going to watch any video of this, at all," Detroit coach Mike Babcock said. "I'm going to have a drink. Actually, it is what I'm going to do." The Wings looked disorganized, loosing puck battles that they normally win, standing and watching the Canadians skate with the puck. Perhaps the Wings shut it down with the rest of the league on Tuesday 24th. Some thought the absence of Captain Nik Lidstrom my have had something to do with the play of the Wings. "Nick's a great player, but I don't think this had anything to do with Nick," Babcock said. Whatever it was, I hope it's out of their system.
I was reminded by a fellow blogger DArm91 on nhlfanchat.com about the 7-1 thrashing the Wings were handed, by the Washington Capitals on October 22, 2011. I had filed that game in the deepest, darkest place in my mind, and for good reason. The Capitals put the kibosh on a 6 game winning streak to start the Wings season, and put them on a 6 game loosing streak in return. In that span of 6 games the Wings were unable to score more then 2 goals and shutout once. My hockey superstitions are heightened, thanks DArm91.
Granted the Wings are in mid-season forum, but there's no need for a 6 game skid now. (13-14) on the road the Red Wings continue their 4 game road trip, before making their way home to Joe Louis Arena where the Wings are a lock. First stop Calgary to take on the Flames Tue, January 31. The Flames (52) find themselves 3 points back of 8th spot Minnesota. With a home record of (13-7-2) and the resurgence of Captain Jerome Iginla, Calgary won't make it easy for the Wings. The league leading Red Wings (67) make their way to Vancouver Thurs Feb 2, to take on the Canucks (64). This team is very disciplined with 4 lines that can score. Of coarse the main two guys to watch is the mental telepathy playing Sedin twins. These guys seem to play with one brain (that's a compliment). The Canucks PP is lethal, so the Wings can't get caught up in (Alex) Burrows & (Ryan) Kessler's shenanigans. Saturday nights tilt brings the Wings into Edmonton to face the speedy Oilers (41) Home record (12-8-3). This Oilers squad was the feel good story of the NHL in the beginning, but then the injury bug infected the dressing room and didn't leave till it was to late for them to recover. Still the Wings can't take them lightly, they're fast, skilled and very creative with the puck. So after a three city Western Canada trip, the Wings head to the desert Mon Feb 6th (who makes this schedule?) to face the NHL owned and operated Phoenix Coyotes (52). The Yotes always play the Wings tough with veteran leader Shane Doan. Catching the Wings at the end of their road trip might be good for the Coyotes to stay in the playoff picture with a win.
The Wings need to get out of the gate quick, if they can make it home with a 2-2 split, i can live with that. It's ill-advised to start a losing streak at this point of the season. GO WINGS!!

|Bible text
|Luke 18:31,34
|Elisabeth Cruciger: Herr Christ, der einig Gotts Sohn
Du wahrer Gott und Davids Sohn (You true God and Son of David),[1] BWV 23, is a church cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach. He composed it in Köthen between 1717 and 1723 for the Sunday Estomihi and performed it as an audition piece for the position of Thomaskantor in Leipzig on 7 February 1723.
History and words[edit]
Bach probably composed the cantata in Köthen between 1717 and 1723 for Quinquagesima Sunday (also known as Estomihi), but it was revised to be included as Bach's other test piece (with Jesus nahm zu sich die Zwölfe, BWV 22) for the position of Thomaskantor in Leipzig. The work was performed there on 7 February 1723 (after the sermon), and performed again on 20 February 1724. It is unclear whether a "test" performance of the 1723 revised version took place in Köthen before Bach's audition at the Thomaskirche.
The prescribed readings for the Sunday were taken from the First Epistle to the Corinthians, "praise of love" (1 Corinthians 13:1–13), and from the Gospel of Luke, healing the blind near Jericho (Luke 18:31–43). Authorship of the poetry is unknown.
The chorale theme Christe, du Lamm Gottes first appeared in print in Johannes Bugenhagen's Braunschweig church order, published in Wittenberg in 1525.[2] The theme is an adaptation of Luther's setting of the Kyrie eleison in his 1525 Deutsche Messe.[3][4]
Scoring and structure[edit]
The cantata is scored for three vocal soloists (soprano, alto, and tenor), four-part choir, cornett, three trombones (or trombe), two oboes, two violins, viola, and basso continuo.[5] The piece has four movements:
- Duet aria (soprano, alto): Du wahrer Gott und Davids Sohn
- Recitative (tenor): Ach! gehe nicht vorüber
- Chorus: Aller Augen warten, Herr
- Chorale: Christe, du Lamm Gottes
In this cantata, Bach combines elements of ritornello and concerto writing to expand his range of structural experimentation. Although the chorale was a later addition, its melody is incorporated earlier in the piece. The text's theme is optimistic, but the music throughout has a sense of underlying sadness.[6] Craig Smith describes the cantata as "one of the densest and greatest".[7]
The opening movement is "a sinewy and somewhat enigmatic quintet" for soprano and alto voices (assuming the role of the blind man addressing Jesus) with low active oboes and continuo. The movement is in adapted ternary form with an opening and closing "Italianate" ritornello. The soprano line includes a "drooping" motive, hinting at later harmonic and emotional development.[6] There is a "thorny, even awkward juxtaposition of triple and duple meters" throughout the duet.[7]
The tenor recitative is quite similar to that for bass in BWV 22: they are in major and use chordal strings underlying the vocal line. This movement adds an instrumental rendition of the melody of the closing chorale in oboe and violin.[6]
The chorus is "dance-like but not toe-tapping, major but not ebulliently so, employing the full chorus but restrained throughout". The form is free rondo with interspersed extended episodes of tenor and bass duet. The opening includes the BACH motif.[6][7]
The closing chorale sets the same verse three times, likely representing the Trinity and drawing the listener's attention to the Passion narrative.[6] It opens with "some of the weightiest and most ponderous music that Bach ever composed".[7] The instrumental introduction varies between settings: the first and second begin with an oboe figure in G minor, the third with imitative counterpoint above the continuo. The harmonic structure of the movement is unsettled, ending on a C major chord that does not resolve. There is a concluding coda of Amens, heralded by a syncopated figure.[6]

A Bit About Me
I'm a dev/ops weasel who enjoys tech, good times with friends and the occasional rum and coke… well, there's nearly always an occasion.
My Past Computer Experience
I've been using computers in one form or another since early elementary school – and helping people troubleshoot their problems with high-tech wizardry ever since. In high school, I began building my own systems and performing software development for local businesses. At work and as part of my own business, I use Linux on a daily basis.
My Past Experience With Free Software
While I have significant experience with free software, I don't believe in a complete hippie-like communist worldview. Crusaders for a complete F/OSS (Free/Open Source Software) ecosystem often do more harm than good. Commercial software has its place in the ecosystem and can serve different needs than free software.
I've now used nearly all the Linux distributions on DistroWatch (including Ubuntu, Fedora, Mandrake, and SuSE) and software packages (Apache HTTPD, Tomcat, Firefox, Thunderbird, VLC), and have enjoyed my experiences with most of them.
Why I Agreed To This
For the first experiment, my normal workflow in the office involved mostly free software, and I believed it wasn't too much of a stretch to migrate to totally free software for nearly everything. It was an interesting challenge that showed my remaining dependencies on proprietary applications.
For the 2011 experiment, I wanted to get a better understanding of the intricacies of the OS and how Linux actually works. I use it regularly in both personal and professional contexts, but apart from understanding the differences between distributions, my intention was to understand things at a deeper level. I certainly got that experience with Linux from Scratch and have carried forth quite a bit of knowledge with respect to the Linux library system and atchitecture.
In the 2013 edition, I tried FreeBSD as my primary operating system. It's not Linux, but I'd acquired a Lanner FW-7540 running pfSense and wanted to be better able to troubleshoot any problems from the command line. I also ran various Linux distribution as a primary OS at work. Will it be possible to interact with email, SMB fileshares and perform typical Windows-y tasks without too much grief? Spoiler: Linux still wasn't there in a corporate environment, and FreeBSD had its own similar quirks.
What I Hope To Get Out Of It
To gain additional experience with Linux and figure out which open source applications make viable alternatives to commercial software.
My Experiment Computer Setup
For the 2013 experiment I used a Dell XPS 8300 desktop with some upgrades:
- Intel Core i7-2600K
- Intel 330 SSD, 180GB (OS) and WD Black 1TB 7200RPM (data)
- Zotac GeForce GTX 660, driving a Dell 3007WFP 30″ monitor
- Intel Pro Gigabit Ethernet, PCI-Express card
For the 2009 experiment, I used my previous desktop:
- Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, running at 3.0GHz

CHAPEL HILL -- The former tutor linked to North Carolina's investigation of possible academic misconduct in the football program has declined to cooperate with the probe, athletic director Dick Baddour said Thursday.
"We've reached out to her a number of times," Baddour said in a telephone interview. "We've indicated to her that we would like to talk to her about this investigation, and her preference is not to do that."
Baddour said her lack of cooperation hasn't impeded the investigation: "We have to take the information that we have and go forward with it. Maybe there are situations where we've had to dig deeper. But I like to think we would have done those things with her involvement."
Earlier in the day, UNC Chancellor Holden Thorp told the University Board of Trustees that the tutor's contract was not renewed in summer 2009 because "there was too much of a friendship between her and the players."
The News & Observer and Charlotte Observer have learned that Jennifer L. Wiley of Chapel Hill is the tutor being looked at for her possible role in the academic probe that has led to the suspension of players from football games. She's a 22-year-old elementary school teacher in Durham.
It is unclear what role, if any, Wiley played. The investigation is ongoing.
Wiley and her family declined comment when contacted in person and multiple times via e-mail and phone message by The N&O and Charlotte Observer over the past two weeks. Her father said she has representation but would not provide the lawyer's name.
School officials have refused to confirm her identity but have confirmed 15 players as part of their investigations into possible agent and academic misconduct.
"She's protected, she's got some FERPA rights on that," Baddour said, referring to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records.
2009 graduate
Wiley, 22, graduated from UNC in 2009.
She was working as a mentor/tutor in UNC's academic support program in 2006 when Butch Davis, then the newly hired head football coach, asked for recommendations for a tutor for his son, Drew, now 17. Davis said during an interview Thursday that he was given a list of four or five people who worked in the academic support program. His family used several of the tutors, and the woman in question worked for him from December 2008 to May 2010.
"She was kind of like an academic coach," said Davis, who declined to name the tutor. "She tried to teach him how to organize his notebooks, how to separate one subject from the other, how to do research, how to do papers, she just helped him in a variety of different [ways]. She was one of a couple of tutors. She worked with specific subjects.
"... She did a good job for our family."
Meanwhile, she also worked as a tutor/mentor for the school until July 2009 - after she had graduated from UNC with a bachelor's degree in elementary education and just before she started her job teaching fifth grade at a Durham elementary school in August 2009, according to university alumni association records and her teaching contract.
At that time, Baddour explained, her contract with academic support wasn't renewed because supervisors in the program - which is headed by the College of Arts and Sciences - felt that friendships were developing between the tutor and the players she was mentoring.
"And that was outside the expectation of the program," Baddour said. "And I am not suggesting in any way that anything inappropriate was going on, other than the perception of hanging out or being together. And that was clearly in exception to what the guidelines are, what the expectations are in that program."
At UNC, tutors and mentors (who work with small groups of athletes) receive four hours of training before they are hired, including instruction on NCAA compliance. At the beginning of each semester, they are required to sign a form agreeing to follow academic honesty policies. At the end of each semester, they must sign another form stating they have neither witnessed, nor committed, any academic fraud or violations.
They can't type athletes' papers. They are not allowed to communicate with athletes over e-mail or work with them anywhere outside the Academic Support Center. They are given handbooks to remind them of the procedures.
Although the handbooks don't expressly forbid tutors or mentors from friending athletes on Facebook or other social media sites, "our training spells out that you're not to be personal friends," associate athletic director John Blanchard said last month. "You're not to hang out. It's a professional relationship, and we want to keep it professional."
UNC announced on Aug. 26 that it was looking into possible academic improprieties involving a tutor who worked for both the school and Davis.
Baddour said then that a player interviewed during the NCAA's investigation into possible improprieties with sports agents shared information about the academic situation, prompting a separate branch of the investigation. A university source familiar with the investigation said the problems involved inappropriate help on papers that football players were required to write for classes.
Thirteen players were ultimately deemed ineligible, or withheld, before the Sept. 4 season opener against LSU because of the academic and agent investigations.
One player, tailback Shaun Draughn, was reinstated after missing two games. Two others, defensive backs Kendric Burney and Deunta Williams, have garnered NCAA suspensions in the "agent" side of the investigation. UNC has declined to say which of the 10 remaining athletes are still out because of the agent part of the probe, the academic side, or both.
No comment
Attempts to reach Wiley's current principal in Durham failed. A secretary at the school refused to take a message for the principal, referring all calls to the district's public relations office.
Doris Walker, the school principal who helped hire Wiley last year, said that her work as a tutor in the athletic program was known but that she was unaware of any other work directly with Davis' family.
"It was not a deciding factor [in hiring her] in any way," Walker said. "It was just incidental information. ... It just came up that it was one of the things that she was fortunate enough to do that contributed to her teaching experience."
Wiley started with fifth-graders but was moved into a kindergarten room within a month or two, Walker said.
Walker described Wiley as a bright, up-and-coming teacher who had a gentle manner and was "very devoted" to her students. Her way was especially helpful with kindergarteners, she said.
"We felt that her very caring, gentle attitude would be very good with our 5-year-olds. ... It's an extra gift for 5-year-olds to have that caring personality," the former principal said.
She called it "startling" that there would be any questions of academic misconduct.
No contact
Davis, meanwhile, said he has not been in contact with the tutor since the August news conference when the academic part of the investigation was announced.
Although no rules were broken when Davis hired a tutor who was also working as a tutor for the school, that policy might change in the future.
"I agree with Holden's comment on that," Baddour said. "There wasn't a policy that precluded that. I think in light of all that has happened, it would be a safeguard to prevent that from happening again, and I'm confident that it won't."
Baddour said that the Faculty Committee on Athletics is taking a "hard look" at the academic support program - including whether undergraduates should be used as tutors.
"I think that's something we need to ask," Baddour said. "I do know that I am familiar with other tutoring and mentoring programs in the University that do use undergraduates, so that's not out of the norm."
Baddour would not say whether the academic investigation might be progressing faster, had the tutor agreed to talk to school investigators. "That would be speculation on my part, and I really don't have an answer for that question," he said
But asked if she could still be helpful, Baddour said: "We would welcome her involvement and would look forward to the opportunity to talk to her."

MLB: Streaks, Tips, Notes
Texas Rangers at Toronto Blue Jays
In the second of a three-game set, the Toronto Blue Jays and Mark Buehrle try to upend Texas Rangers and their ace hurler Yu Darvish. Buehrle holds a 2-4 mark with an ERA of 5.42 in his 12 starts with the Blue Jays (7-5 TSR). Buehrle rounding into form with his new club has pitched at least six innings in seven consecutive outings and heads to the mound 1-1 the past three with a smart 2.84 ERA helping Jays post a 2-1 record over span. For Texas, Darvish carries a 7-2 record, 2.77 ERA to the hill in 12 starts with Rangers 9-3 when he takes the ball. Darvish has gone three starts without getting a victory (1-2 TSR) but did toss seven scoreless innings against the Royals last outing a game Rangers won 3-1. Jays coming in with a ton of confidence taking the opener 6-1 to make it 13-6 as host in the series well roll the dice with Toronto and Buehrle. The left-hander has had great success vs Rangers posting a career 12-5 mark over seventeen starts and is on a 5-2 home team start stretch in June. Rangers on a 1-6 road skid helps the cause.

Saturday FOX Tips
By Kevin Rogers
The second Saturday of June showcases an interesting mix of baseball games at night. FOX will put the spotlight on five regional contests, including the Cardinals battling the Reds, while the Angels and Red Sox play the second game of a double-header. We'll begin in Milwaukee with the struggling Brewers trying to salvage their faltering season against the Phillies.
Phillies at Brewers
Starting pitchers: Kyle Kendrick (6-3, 3.12 ERA), Tom Gorzelanny (1-0, 2.01 ERA)
Season series: Brewers, 3-2. Brewers grabbed two of three meetings at Philadelphia in early June, but the Phillies smashed Milwaukee in this series opener. The Phillies entered Friday winning each of the last three visits to Miller Park, as the Brewers ended that slide with a 5-4 walk-off triumph.
Last 10 overall: Phillies 6-4, Brewers 4-6
Last 10 totals: Phillies 6-4 to 'over,' Brewers 5-5 to 'over'
What to know: Philadelphia has won five of its last six Game 3's of a series, while Milwaukee owns a dreadful 4-15 record the previous 19 home contests.

Season series: Cardinals, 5-2. After the Reds destroyed St. Louis in its first meeting, the Cards have taken five of the last six matchups. St. Louis routed Cincinnati in the series opener, 9-2 on Friday as slight road favorites.

Angels at Red Sox
Starting pitchers: C.J. Wilson (4-4, 3.93 ERA), Clay Buchholz (8-0, 1.62 ERA)
Season series: After getting rained out on Friday, the two teams meet for the first time this season on Saturday with a day-night doubleheader. The Angels have owned the Red Sox since 2011 with eight straight wins in the series, including five consecutive victories at Fenway Park.

Last 10 totals: Angels 6-4 to the 'under,' Red Sox 5-5 to the 'over'
