Timbers, Whitecaps end regular season with 2-2 draw
The Timbers and Whitecaps met for the final time during the regular season as members of United Soccer Leagues/USSF Division-2 Pro League, competing against one another for the past 10 seasons as lower-division clubs. Portland and Vancouver join North America's top flight in Major League Soccer as expansion clubs in 2011.
Down 1-0 at halftime, the Timbers rallied back in the opening 12 minutes of the second half on goals by Alhassan and Dike to take a 2-1 lead in the 58th minute. The Whitecaps were able to fight their way back and equalized the score in the 68th minute with a header on the doorstep by Cody Arnoux, ending another physical, fast-paced matchup between the two rivals in a 2-2 draw.
Midfielder Ryan Pore recorded an assist, goalkeeper Steve Cronin made four second-half saves, Dike scored his 10th goal of the season and Alhassan scored his second goal in three games to help the Timbers (13-7-10, 49pts) close the regular season with 10-game unbeaten streak.
Midfielder Terry Dunfield scored his second goal of the season and took a team-high four shots, Arnoux scored his first goal of the season, defender Kyle Porter notched an assist and midfielder Martin Nash tallied his team-leading eighth assist for the Whitecaps (10-5-15, 45pts).
As a result of the draw, the Timbers sealed their position as the No. 4 seed in the USSF Division-2 Pro League heading into the postseason, which begins next week, and will face the Whitecaps in the first round.
With momentum on their side, the Whitecaps broke the game open in the 27th minute. Midfielder Philippe Davies played a corner kick in to Nash, who then flicked a pass over the crowd in the box to Dunfield on the back side. Dunfield knocked a shot through two defenders and by Cronin for the go-ahead score.
The Timbers pulled level at 1-1 in the opening minute of the second half. Defender Steve Purdy brought the ball down the right side and laid it off for forward Doug DeMartin. Deep in the corner, DeMartin crossed the ball in and it deflected off of Dike and his defender and out to Alhassan in the middle of the box. Alhassan tucked a shot from 12 yards out inside the right post for the equalizer in the 46th minute.
Dike's 10th goal of the season put the Timbers ahead 2-1 in the 58th minute. Starting with Cronin in the back, the ball was played to Pore in midfield. Pore carried the ball up the middle of the park, drawing the Whitecaps defense. Pore then split a pair of defenders with a well-timed through ball, springing Dike on a breakaway. Dike slipped by Nolly and drilled the ball into an open net. With the goal, Dike became just the ninth different Timbers player in modern-franchise history to reach the 10-goal mark in a single season.
A header by Vancouver's Arnoux in the 68th minute made the score 2-2 midway through the second half. From his right back position, Porter delivered a well-placed cross into the box from the right side. The ball sailed just over the reach of Timbers defender Ross Smith and dropped in for Arnoux on the back side. Arnoux punched in his first goal as a Whitecap from the doorstep for the equalizer.
The Whitecaps put the Timbers under pressure for a spell early in the match. In the third minute, forward Davide Chiumiento cut across the top of the box and unleashed a shot that hit off the left post. During a series of corner kicks and second-ball chances for Vancouver early in the half, Dunfield ripped a shot that bounced through the box and nearly found its way inside the left post; Dunfield attempted three of his four shots in the first half.
The Timbers best chance in the first half came in the 19th minute on a breakaway forward Ibad Muhamadu. He broke loose down field from the midfield stripe and out-ran the Vancouver backline. Muhamadu charged into the box along the right post and took a shot from 15 yards out. His shot forced Nolly into a diving stop to redirect the ball wide of the post.
The Timbers offense found its groove in the second half and the attack found holes in the Whitecaps defense, leading to a pair of goals early in the period. Dike attempted all three of his shots in the second half, and had a hard, low shot in the 86th minute denied on a kick save by Nolly.
With the lead in the race for the league's scoring title and Golden Boot, Pore had a chance to add to his league-best 15 goals total on a breakaway in the 72nd minute. Running up field along the right post, Pore had the advantage on his defender. Once inside the box, he cut inside and pulled the trigger on a shot, but it was blocked at the top of the box.
Off of a corner kick in the 74th minute, the Timbers had a chance to steal their second win in Vancouver in 2010. The ball rattled around the box before falling onto the path of Purdy. His effort was blocked, and the ball rolled out to defender Stephen Keel still inside the box. Keel hit a shot on frame, but it was plucked out of the air by Nolly with a quick reaction save.
Needing a win to clinch the NASL Conference title, the Whitecaps continued to push forward in the second half, attempting nine of their 13 shots in the period. Nash ripped a shot from 22 yards out in the 64th minute from the top of the arch. Cronin was able to knock it wide with a diving save to his right.
With the USSF D-2 Pro League regular season completed, the Timbers advance to the playoffs for the seventh time since 2001. Portland will face the No. 5-seeded Whitecaps in the first round. The first round features a two-game, aggregate-goal series, with the winner moving on to the semifinals.
The Timbers will play the first game of the series in Vancouver; match date and time will be announced at a later date. Portland will play host to Vancouver on Sunday, Oct. 10, at Merlo Field on the University of Portland campus at 6 p.m. Playoff tickets are available in three-match strips for $65 by calling the Timbers ticket office at (503) 553-5555.

This is what happens with social medicine and is why a lot of Canadians come to the US for major operations.
So care to explain my posts...since I'm from the US, and socialized medicine didn't play into any of my points...
As regards Canadians coming here for operations...when is that old bit of half-truth going to die?
The interesting part...is I usually hear that Canadians flooding the US for healthcare thing...from folks who live in Red States.

Some of the most powerful design lessons can't be taught in school. I remember, back when I was a young architecture student, walking into a small Tudor stucco house in St. Paul, Minn., that a classmate had been renovating, and being awestruck by the living room ceiling. No fancy tracery or pendant lights – just a flat sheet of plaster trimmed in glossy white cove molding and painted a saturated, penetrating periwinkle blue. Still a design naïf, and a product of Midwestern split-level society, I had honestly never met a ceiling not painted white, covered in knotty pine or encrusted with cottage cheese crystals. I marveled at my host's temerity. Color on a ceiling – fantastic!
Since that time, I can't help but walk into a home with all white ceilings and quietly lament the missed opportunities. And while I appreciate a white on white on white interior for its minimal purity, I've often felt architects and designers too often forgo color out of fear or lack of imagination, rather than in pursuit of an aesthetic principle.
Thanks to an explosion of free DIY advice circulating on the Internet, we can now add "misinformation" to the list of reasons people avoid rich or deep colors in architectural interiors. The recommendation goes something like this: To make a room "feel bigger," paint it a light color. Occasionally, this dictum will be supplemented by the corollary: "Warm colors will make a room feel smaller and cool colors will make it seem larger."
Two things concern me about these statements. First, there is no scientific paper or study suggesting either of these statements to be true. Second, scientific studies conducted during the last one hundred years shows the opposite to be true.
Psychological studies on human perception and distance (the earliest study I found dates to 1898) have consistently found that observers perceive bright objects to be nearer than the same objects in darker colors. Additionally, bright objects appear larger than dark objects. In design textbooks, this finding has been converted into the mantra "light colors advance and dark colors recede." [see Light: The Shape of Space, Designing with Space and Light by Lou Michel. (John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1996) or Color in Three Dimensional Design by Jeanne Kopacz. (McGraw Hill, 2004)].
Applying this principle to an interior space, light colored walls (let's call them white) would seem to be closer to a person standing in the room and dark colored walls (let's call them gray) would seem to be farther away. Now, if I'm in a room and all the walls seem to be closer to me, I would say that makes the room "feel" smaller. Accordingly, the gray walls would seem to be farther away, giving the impression of more space between myself and the walls – to wit: a bigger room.
In the interest of fairness, it needs to be admitted that although my investigation failed to uncover any proof of the "light walls make rooms big" theory, there is an equal dearth of material proving the "dark walls make rooms big" counter theory. The only study that comes close to research on the topic was performed by a couple of psychologists (Oberfeld and Hecht) at Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany and focused on the perception of room height related to ceiling and wall color. Published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology in 2010, the research (using virtual reality apparatus) offered some support to the "light equals height" position, yet the findings were mixed and, to my mind, inconclusive. While observers reported that the room painted a light color seemed the tallest, the room painted a dark color appeared taller than a room painted a medium color. Go figure.
Perhaps more telling was the minor variation that color had in the perception of space, according to their paper. While the room's actual height was 10 feet, perceptual change, based on color, varied just two inches from one color to another. In fact, removing color as a variable, people overestimated the ceiling height by an average of eight inches. Even if the perceptual change is real (one way or another) it would still remain an open case of how significant the color effect would be in relation to other design decisions – let alone human fallibility in gauging distances. Do windows make a space feel bigger or smaller? How about other openings like doorways and cased openings? What about trim shape, size and gloss? Do patterns on walls have an impact? How about lines of sight to other spaces, which Frank Lloyd Wright used in numerous Prairie Style and Usonian house plans to expand the sense of spaciousness?
The Minneapolis-based residential architect Tom Whitcomb is well-known for his brazen embrace of color in his work (20 years ago he painted his own rambler-style house purple). When I recently asked him on which side of the color and room-size debate he stands, he confessed that it had never crossed his mind. "It sounds like marketing lingo more than a real design insight," Whitcomb explains. "Design rules of thumb like that don't translate well into the real world. Things are rarely so simplistic."
What's your take on color and the visual perception of space?
I agree with Tom. The point of generic rules (and of scientific studies) is to eliminate or disregard a lot of complicated reality in order to find a black or white answer. Of all the design considerations that an architect puts into a project, it would be a shame to think that making a room look a couple of inches bigger would ever be a driving issue.
I've been in a lot of living rooms since my college days – many of them much larger, brighter, more open and airier than the one in my friend's St. Paul Tudor house. But that is the one that stands out in my memory – the white room with glossy trim and a periwinkle ceiling.

Uncle walks Keswick to Barrow twice for Alice
Last updated at 14:21, Monday, 28 May 2012
FOR many people a 40-mile walk is enough to last them a lifetime.
But Gary Pennington took inspiration from his niece Alice Pyne to complete a mammoth trek twice in a week.
Only seven days after taking part in the Keswick to Barrow as part of Team Alice, Mr Pennington, 46, set off on his own to do the walk again.
The challenge came about after Mr Pennington, who is a control centre manager at Agilisys in Barrow, boasted to other team members, who were raising money for his niece's charity Alice's Escapes, that he would be happy to do the walk again.
He told the Evening Mail: "After doing the walk the first time all the team members were comparing blisters, aches and pains.
"But I said 'To be honest, I don't have any aches, pains or blisters. I'm fine, I could do it again'.
"It all started from there really and I said I was happy to do it if we could raise more money. The team said I should do it again and then on Facebook someone said I should do it the following Saturday. By last Friday, I had raised £300 so I did it on the Saturday. I got someone to give me a lift down and I set off myself.
"The second walk went fine as well. It was different doing it on my own with no support around. I had to make the use of a couple of coffee shops and a pub as well. It rained for the first two hours, but it cleared up in the afternoon."
Mr Pennington completed the walk in around nine hours, a similar time to his first effort a week earlier, and has raised a further £500.
But Mr Pennington, brother of Alice's mum Vicky, said his challenge paled in significance to what his niece has achieved.
He said: "The money raised and also the raising the charity's profile has made it all worth it."

One dies every 19 minutes
It's true — every 19 minutes, one American dies from an unintentional drug overdose. And we aren't talking about illegal street drugs — we're talking about prescription drugs found right in your own medicine cabinet. The fact is, more Americans die from prescription drug abuse than cocaine, hallucinogens, inhalants and heroin combined.

Hello, everyone. I'm on the road for a few days so postings might be spotty. Earlier in the week, I had emailed Tom requesting some info about how his FLL team is doing... Tom responsed with some great stuff, including some videos. If you are a team coach (or member) and would like to let us know a little about your team, feel free to email me the details (email address on right side of blog screen) - Jim
Tom's email:
Hey all, Coach Tom Williamson of FLL team 2137 here with a status report. Our team is anxiously awaiting the official kick-off in September but we've certainly been busy in the mean time. This is my first year as a FLL coach and I've been busy putting together a website (www.bricksforbrains.geekytom.com) for my team. I've also been: trying to drum up some sponsorship (that's going slow), getting binders ready for the team with all the information they need and materials for the research project, trying to get shirts printed (cafepress stonewalled me with legal hassles), trying to get tracksuits for the team and keeping the blog up to date. Not to mention getting to know LEGO Mindstorms NXT.
I decided to go with the retail version of NXT for a few reasons. The main one was the difference in included LEGO elements. I definitely wanted the hassenpins. They're just way too useful. The other differences weren't anything I don't already have in my boxes and boxes of LEGO Technic. I also read that the rechargeable battery might have been a little less powerful than regular alkalines. Not to mention that you need two to really be competition ready. Always have one charged and ready to go. I think we'll be fine with loads of AA's from Costco. I also have to admit that there was a certain immediate satisfaction with racing down to Toys R Us as soon as the kits came out :-)
The kids have been busy too. We had an unofficial kickoff build party to celebrate the arrival of our challenge kit. We built all the models over a weekend and they're waiting patiently on the dining room table for a table to live on. Dane's father Eric has agreed to build the table (whew, something I don't have to do!) and should be starting on that this week. Austin has been learning NXT with me. We're playing with the RoboArm T-56 these days, it's a blast. Last weekend all the kids personally signed our letters seeking sponsorship and Austin and I drove all over Lompoc delivering them to local businesses. No responses yet, but we're hopeful. They also signed a thank you letter to our only sponsor so far, Larry Perry of Double Density Software.
As far as this year's challenge, the kids are very excited to see what we'll have to do. Some of the models are easy to figure out, some are not. The models are excellent though, and they were fun to put together. My personal favorite is the self assembling nano-tube. You trip one end and it sequentially trips all the levers.We were all impressed with the mat, and spent a good while analyzing how it was going to be laid out. The plan at this point is to keep the table in my garage. Hopefully we can rearrange things enough to all be comfortable out there.We plan to meet twice a week, for 1 to 1.5 hours on Wednesdays, and 2 hours on Sunday afternoons. Once we get really going we'll adjust our meeting times to suit the schedules of all and make sure we spend enough time together. We still plan to have 6 kids on the team. Next week the kids will all have been in school for a couple weeks and we can start recruiting. I don't think we'll have any trouble filling the spots.
That's about all the news that's fit to print. I'll check in again in Sept to let you all know how things are going. You can also watch our progress on the website. In the mean time...Play Well!Tom Williamsoncoach - FLL team Bricks For Brains
Tom also included links to some videos of the different FLL challenges...
UPDATE: The videos are no longer available... bandwidth limits were exceeded so, for now, the videos are offline. - Jim

Bialik's character is a neurobiologist, which corresponds to Bialik's real-life educational pursuits, as described below.
Prior to her joining the cast in the episode "The Bat Jar Conjecture," Raj suggests recruiting the real-life Bialik to their Physics Bowl team, saying "You know who's apparently very smart, is the girl who played TV's Blossom. She got a PhD in neuroscience or something."
On March 6, 2012, her book, "Beyond the Sling: A Real-Life Guide to Raising Confident, Loving Children the Attachment Parenting Way" was released.
Personal life
Hayim Nahman Bialik, Israel's national poet, was Mayim Bialik's great-great-grandfather's uncle.
Bialik attended Walter Reed Junior High School in North Hollywood, CA, located in the San Fernando Valley. At the end of Blossom, she chose to attend UCLA, although she also had been accepted to both Harvard and Yale. She stated that she wanted to stay close to her parents and did not want to move to the East Coast. She earned a bachelor's degree in 2000 in neuroscience, Hebrew, and Jewish studies, and went on to the PhD program in neuroscience.
She took a break from studies in 2005 to return to acting. Bialik completed her PhD in 2008. Her dissertation was an investigation of Prader-Willi syndrome.

His relationship with his religious mother is well done. Whereas Howard and his mother, while I get the joke, is just disturbing.

I am pleased that the Department is issuing this Dear Colleague letter on athletic programs today. I think this reaffirmation of longstanding policy will help to bolster Title IX and assure that educational institutions that receive federal financial assistance do not discriminate on the basis of sex.

Paintings and poetry, music and design... they all define who we are as a people."

I decided to write this review for many reasons:
1- I'm a big Neowin fan
2- I searched everywhere for a review on Dell's UltraSharp 2005FPW 20.1-inch Widescreen LCD, but I didn't find any!
3- I recived the monitor 4 days ago, and decided to post this review in hope that it might help someone out there!
Now, I ordered and paid about US $670 for this new screen from dell. I received it within 5 days and shipping was free..
I really wanted a widescreen LCD, I looked at Apple's 20-inch WS LCD and HP's 23-inch WS LCD, but the price was prohibiting! ($1,300 for Apple's and $1,900 for HP's)..
I currently own a ViewSonic VP171s 17-inch LCD monitor, I really like it, and it's great for gaming (16ms response time and 1280x1024 nativeThe official specs for Dell's UltraSharp 2005FPW 20.1-inch LCD are:-inch LCD are:
20.1-inch, Wide Aspect (16:9), Active Matrix TFT, Midnight Gray, 1680x1050 Pixels, 300 cd/m² Brightness, 600:1 Contrast Ratio, 12ms response time, VGA / DVI-D / S-Video Connectors, 4 USB 2.0 Ports, 100 Hardware:t
The package looked really cheap! but after opening the box, I fell in love immediately!! The screen wasn't much heavier than my previous 17-inch LCD. There are 4 inputs in the lower rare end of the LCD: DVI, S-Video, analog VGA, and composite video. There is also a USB hub to connect up to 4 USB devices.
On the stand, there is a cable organizer (just 2 long clips to hold the power cord, DVI cable, and so on).
On the lower right corner of the LCD, there is 6 buttons for accessing the OSD, changing input, and Picture-in-Picture.
There is no manual with the LCD, just a CD and an installation flyer. There is an HTML manual in the CD which I didn't even look at. I just plugged the monitor and updated Windows XP with the monitor's driverDesktop Usage:D.
Desktop Usage:
The screen is simply marvelous, the work space is enjoyable, and you can easily open more than one program horizontally. MS Word and Photoshop CS never looked better! Colors were even better than ViewSonic's VP171s, shiny and vibrant colors, excellent brightness, and silveresh colors never looked better. The screen is huge! I mean it's really huge!!
One more thing: in Photoshop CS, the program asked me if I wanted to change the color profile to the one supplied by Dell. I accepted but found that the colors weren't that good! So I changed the profile back to Photoshop's default and everything looked great.

Watching Movies & TV:
I'm not a big fan of watching movies on computer screens because I have a kick ass home theater setup in my living room, but I tested a couple of movies just for this review!
Guys, this screen changed my mind!! Colors & clarity were amazing.. I didn't notice any ghosting or frame drops, this LCD kicks ass! I didn't test the TV inputs though, and the Picture-in-Picture function works fine, you can even choose the second picture's position on the screen, or even watch two inputs horizontally..

Gaming (HL2)
This is the ultimate gaming LCD, I used it with Half Life 2 and I couldn't be happier. I was really surprised by HL2's ability to display the game in widescreen; it gave me the option to display the game in widescreen (16:10) using a resolution of 1680x1050!! The display was amazing and the view is simply stunning! No ghosting or frame drops, but you have to choose "wait for V-Sync" in the game's video options menu.

1950s London. In the kitchen of an enormous West End restaurant, the orders are piling up: a post-war feast of soup, fish, cutlets, omelets and fruit flans. Fifteen hundred customers an' half of them eating fish. I had to start work on a Friday. Thrown together by their work, chefs, waitresses and porters from across Europe - English, Irish, German, Jewish - argue and flirt as they race to keep up. Peter, a high-spirited young cook, seems to thrive on the pressure. In between preparing dishes, he manages to strike up an affair with married waitress Monique, the whole time dreaming of a better life. But in the all-consuming clamor of the kitchen, nothing is far from the brink of collapse. We all said we wouldn't last the day, but tell me - what is there a man can't get used to?

somebody tell the spider that once you're knocked out you can't "give it back" hehe.
on a serious note. Silva relies on his head movement to throw off fighters. if he just fights smart and tentatively he will get take down easier. He needs those matrix body movements to make fighters think too much and as they throw tentative punches and kicks...then he counters. He is not as effective without the head movements and taunting.

What creepy things have you either thrown at your players or had thrown at you?
One of my favorites was Annika. Annika was a young girl, about twelve years old, who had been kidnapped amid a rash of deadly nightmares through her town. The PCs determined that she had been kidnapped by a night hag, and went out to the forest where, according to lore, the hag laired. The hag told them that Annika was her daughter, and she was just transforming her in the method traditional of the night hags. The Freelance Police drove away, but didn't kill, the hag, rescued Annika, and used Remove Curse to dispel the unfortunate purple tone her skin had taken.
But, although Annika was still mostly human, she thought a big, well, haggishly. After the intial shock of being rescued, she was very calm, very collected and very intelligent. And one of the players just wanted to kill her, because he was sure that she was going to go for all of their throats. But she never did, which just made her all the creepier in his eyes...
I liked her. I think I'm going to have to bring her back.

He'd come by the mission Tuesday afternoon to shower and figure out a plan. He shrugged and shook his head when asked what he was going to do for a place to sleep for the next 60 days.
"Whatever — guess I'll be staying in the woods," Choate said. "You got to do what you got to do."
The forecast was clear for the evening, unlike the night before. Eddie, who asked not to have his last name released, was sitting across the picnic table. He burned through his five days one day earlier and spent that night curled up in the woods trying to stay dry.
"I can stay warm on a cold night but can not stay dry when it's raining," Eddie said. "Cold nights, you can just pull the cover up."
Two months earlier the mission began turning away people who choose vagrant lifestyles, reverting efforts to its original goal of being a transitional facility, according to Rev. Billy Fox, mission director.
"We just boxed ourselves in to say we are not equipped and it is no longer our focus to meet those individuals' needs," Fox said. "They aren't going to get anything done. They consumed our staff and we never got anywhere with them. Now staff can focus on getting the people who want help back on their feet."
In doing so, basic shelter stays have been reduced from five days every 30-day period to five days in 60. Three meals a day are now only offered to people in transitional programs. A supper and a shower per day are still attainable by anyone in need, but if they are over the allotted limit they cannot stay the night unless it is raining and about 45 degrees outside.
The most substantial change was the day shelter transitioning into the Pathways Christian Recovery Ministries'
Fox cited these as proof of success — for the mission.
"We fixed our problem, but I'm not sure we fixed the problem," Fox said. "Downtown has not been affected as much as we thought it would be."
Several employees and business owners downtown said they haven't seen a decline in the vagrant population.
However, much of the homeless population who stayed near the mission for meals, or in the day center for shelter, now are spreading to outlying communities.
"With them changing it from where you can only stay five days every 60 days, it put a lot more homeless on the street, I can tell you that," Choate said. "They go from here to the beach, staying in run-down buildings or in the woods."
Fox said many of the day center regulars he now spots in outlying area as opposed to downtown where they could be contained.
"If the city or county wants to do something, that should be their target population," Fox said.
The Homelessness Task Force, assembled by Mayor Greg Brudnicki, has been keeping a dialogue going with the Rescue Mission through its transitional period, according to Jo Shaffer, project manager of the Community Resource Center Task Force. The
"It's been interesting to watch them rethink their priorities; both what they are going to offer and how they are going to offer it," Schaffer said. "We wanted to let them work through that as their own independent organization."
Shaffer said
In 2003, the mission began offering the
"The reason they can't stay here now is they don't want to change," Fox said. "We say all right, come back in 60 days and we'll try it again. We get some that come back and say they don't like it and they do want a change."
The mission's initial goal was to have 90 percent of its population in transition programs. Fox said an outpouring of approval has come from the community because of the recent changes.
"People are supporting it," Fox said. "It is really becoming a real good move on our part."
One concern is still of a humanitarian nature.
"Even if it's pouring down rain they'll say you got to go," Choate said. "There's a lot of older people out here that really don't need to be in the weather like that."

The Phillies RBI (Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities) program began in 1993 as a part of Major League Baseball's international RBI campaign, which today encompasses more than 200 cities and as many as 120,000 male and female participants a year.
The RBI Leagues focus on instruction and also have a competitive nature. Participants have the opportunity to capitalize on their learned skills during true game situations. Though RBI was open to boys and girls, both were playing baseball. Softball was folded into the RBI program in 1995. The integration of softball has helped the number of teenagers participating in Phillies RBI Leagues in the area grow to over 2,000 participants in over 20 locations.
In addition to the traditional RBI Leagues, the program supports three All-star teams - a Junior (13-15 years) and Senior (16-18 years) boys baseball team and a girls softball team (15-18 years). These teams travel and compete in MLB sponsored local and regional RBI competitions for the opportunity to play in the RBI World Series held each year in August.
The RBI Leagues are sponsored by Turkey Hill.
For the past six years, Phillies second baseman Chase Utley has been the Jr. RBI and RBI League Chairman.
Chase loves working with the children and has met with members of the Jr. RBI and RBI Leagues on several occasions to give baseball tips, answer questions, sign autographs and help hand out gloves to those in need.
Each year participants of the RBI Leagues have the opportunity to participate in various special events.
During the weekend of February 11, 2012, the Phillies hosted a RBI IMPACT clinic designed to educate our young RBI players on the five tools of baseball -running for speed, arm strength, hitting for average, hitting for power and fielding. The nearly 60 players participating in the RBI IMPACT clinic left with a greater knowledge of the tools and drills on how to improve their game in all the areas.

Former Phillies pitcher Dickie Noles gave pointers to 13-15 year-old baseball players interested in learning or fine tuning their pitching skills. He also spoke to the RBI All-Star softball team.

On August 10 members of the Phillies Jr. RBI and RBI Leagues were invited to Citizens Bank Park to take part in the PLAY (Promoting a Lifetime of Activity for Youth) a public awareness campaign developed by the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society (PBATS) in 2004 to combat child obesity. Through a series of fitness programs at all 30 MLB ballparks, PLAY was designed to encourage youth throughout the country to be active, eat right and sustain a healthy lifestyle. Phillies Head Trainer Scott Sheridan and Strength and Conditioning Coordinator Dong Lien taught participants how to stretch and warm-up their bodies and ran them through a number of exercise used by the Phillies players. Brad Lidge took time to speak to the participants about the importance of exercise and eating properly and shared with them his work with the Food Trust which helps to bring healthy food options to local schools and corner stores throughout Philadelphia.
The Phillies helped kick off the 2014 RBI season with an annual coaches clinic for local RBI coaches and volunteers.
Watch Video
The Phillies annually host an umpire clinic for coaches and volunteers. During the clinic, coaches from various Jr. RBI and RBI Leagues learn how to call a game. Instructors explain the different hand gestures that signal different calls, such as a strike. They also discuss the proper field position an umpire should be in to call a play at a base.
Some lucky members of the Phillies Rookie and RBI program in West Philadelphia were treated to a baseball clinic run by the Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation.
Each year the Phillies provide tickets to the RBI players, many who have never attended a professional baseball game, and coaches to come out and cheer on the home team.
The Phillies appreciate the contributions of each league leader and coach who throughout the baseball season work hard to give the children in their leagues the opportunity to play ball. In recognition of their efforts, the Phillies invite league leaders to a Phillies game and a special Rooftop party filled with food. In addition, Phillies RBI League sponsor Turkey Hill Dairy contributes $100 per Phillies win and five cents per carton of Phillies Graham Slam Ice Cream sold to the RBI Leagues. Members of the RBI League help us say thank you with a special on field presentation.
A select baseball team made up of members from different teams in the Phillies Junior RBI intercity league travelled to Reading, PA for a game against an All-Star team from the Boys & Girls Club of Reading. The Philadelphia team travelled by bus and played their game in the home of the Reading Phillies.
Out of the RBI Leagues, three All-Star teams - a Junior (13-15) and Senior (16-18) Baseball team and a Softball team are selected to compete in MLB's RBI tournaments.

When Samantha Campolongo '09 graduated from Wilson College with a degree in veterinary medical technology (VMT), she dreamt of one day becoming a veterinarian and opening her own practice. She is one step closer to making her dream a reality after being accepted to Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in St. Kitts, West Indies.
Samantha Campolongo '09
"I know that right after I graduate I'll have to work for other people for a while, but I really want my own clinic someday," said Samantha, who wants to her practice to focus on small and exotic animals.
At Ross University, Samantha will have an opportunity to handle the exotic animals – one of the things she finds appealing about that particular institution. She will have access to amphibians, reptiles and zoo animals, including turtles, birds, monkeys and even a jaguar.
Samantha, who lives in Lavallette, N.J., has loved animals since she was a child. "As I grew older, (I had) a real distinct interest in their anatomy," she said. "I want to be able to notice what's wrong with them and fix it."
Since graduating, she has worked at several veterinary clinics and is currently employed at Animal Emergency & Referral Associates in Fairfield, N.J. She will start vet school in January and will continue through April 2014. She must then complete one more year of clinical work at a college in the United States before earning her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (D.V.M.) degree.
According to Samantha, Wilson's VMT program has given her a big advantage in the veterinary field by preparing her better for a career than many of her peers.
"The (Wilson) VMT program has basic versions of vet school courses," Samantha said. "Anatomy, pharmacology, lab animal science - I get calls from my friends already in vet school asking me for help because they were never required to take these courses."
In addition to the strong academics at Wilson, Samantha loved the small, intimate atmosphere here – especially the ability to interact with professors. "You don't get the same experience at a big university," she said.

Gaining a Global Advantage
Dozens of MBA and MA programs offer master's degrees with a curriculum focused on global issues. Few, if any, approach the challenges of doing business internationally the way we do in the School of Organizational Leadership & Transformation. Rather than approach these issues through a theoretical lens, we approach them through the lens of transformational leadership and culturally-sensitive, people-focused management. With our program, you'll learn how the challenges of the global workspace affect the entire organization, from operations, logistics, and human resources to technology, marketing, and finance. You'll learn how to develop the underlying communications network and social grids that are key to creating virtual teams of individuals who are able to collaborate successfully across cultures..
Innovative Team Teaching
Each term you'll take two concept courses with the two professors working as a team of co-instructors. This approach will integrate different cultural and global perspectives directly into the fabric of instruction. The first half of each semester focuses on the acquisition or skills and knowledge.
Real World Application
An application-focused course each term provides an opportunity to ground your learning in a real-world application. Throughout the program, you will draw on your experience working in organizations to apply the new concepts you are learning. This process enables you to develop and demonstrate the skills needed to influence and lead change
Blended Learning Model
The MA in Management program combines the best of both online learning and in-person classes and seminars. You are able to participate in the program remotely through interactive online classes, teleconferences, and small group sessions, without relocating or disrupting your schedule.
At the start of each semester, you'll come to Seattle or San Francisco to participate in a four-day Residential Conference, working with instructors and fellow students face-to-face in half-day or whole-day seminars.
This highly successful learning model, which is used across Saybrook, is specifically suited to people who want to continue their careers while getting an education. We take pride in the creation of the strong learning communities fostered by our hybrid teaching approach. You will get to know your fellow students and faculty well, thriving with their support and insights.

Conservationist sets his sights on trail system
The idea for a network of trails has been carefully discussed and planned for decades by various leaders, including members of the Fallbrook Planning Group, but Tucker and Ross are on to something, I think.
"We want to find the trail," Tucker told me. "We're not trying to create a lot of trails; we're trying to use trails that exist."
The conservancy hopes to publish an instructional trail map later this year, providing local residents with a tutorial on how to hike from the San Luis Rey River to the Santa Margarita River, for example.
For Tucker, whose conservancy has preserved swaths of rural Fallbrook, and Ross, a downtown visionary who supports community development, the trail concept has meant a return to the issue that originally brought them together — albeit on opposite sides.
"This is what I've been wanting to do for years," Tucker said. "We're returning to that now, Vince and I. Since then, there's been some precedence set. A lot of the pieces are in place now that weren't in place, so the time is right, I think."
And if you ask why he chose this, of all the possible retirement projects, he'll just shrug.
"I like to walk," he'll say.

The city of Hoover, Ala., is known for its shopping opportunities and nice places to have dinner.
When Sam Frost returns to his hometown this week, he will be searching for something that can't be found in a store or a restaurant.
Frost and the Mississippi State Bulldogs are wanting to play well enough at Regions Park to bring a Southeastern Conference Tournament championship back to Starkville.
"There's nothing I'd like more than to get a ring this week," Frost said. "The SEC Tournament is the biggest attraction every year and it draws the biggest crowds at Regions Park. To win this tournament is almost like a national championship."
Frost remembers his mother allowing him to leave school early as a young boy to go watch some of the action of the SEC Tournament.
It was a dream of his to be able to play in that stadium and now he gets that opportunity with MSU.
"That's where I wanted to be my whole life," Frost said. "I'd go watch the college teams and I'd go watch the (Birmingham) Barons play. It's somewhere I've always seen myself playing."
One thing Frost doesn't see himself doing often is shop, but he can see why people like Hoover as a place to satisfy that urge.
"From what I've heard from all of the girls in Mississippi, that's the place to go," Frost said. "You have the (Galleria) mall and the Summitt out on (Highway) 280 where there are a bunch of stores. A lot of the guys like to go over there and shop for shoes.
"It's not a huge town, even though some people think it is. We have all of the chain restaurants. It's just home for me."
Frost was a two-year starter as a middle infielder at Hoover High School, which is located near Regions Park.
In helping the Buccaneers to a 32-13 record and a berth in the AHSAA Class 6A playoffs as a senior, Frost hit .389 with 42 runs scored, 31 runs batted in, 17 doubles and eight home runs in 45 games. He was voted the team's Most Valuable Player and was selected to the All-Birmingham Metro, All-Over The Mountain and All-Birmingham Metro Academic teams.
Frost helped Hoover to a 29-18 mark as a junior and the Class 6A State Championship.
Since joining the Bulldogs, coach John Cohen said Frost understands his role and performs it well.
"He's a very athletic kid, has got tremendous quickness, and he's got arm strength," Cohen said. "He can do the short game and can play any position on the infield.
"Sam has been a great player and great leader for us. He is almost a straight A student in mathematics at Mississippi State so we love Sam and everything he does for us."
Cohen said Frost, now a junior, is one of the few members of the squad that has experienced success in the postseason as MSU won the Atlanta Regional last season.
Frost only played in 40 out of 63 games last season, but did get 38 at-bats and contributed seven hits with one of those being a double. He had much better numbers as a freshman with a .248 batting average, eight doubles, a triple and 13 RBI.
So far this season, Frost is hitting .227 with 25 hits, six doubles, 15 RBI and has stolen seven bases in 10 attempts.
Frost said the Bulldogs are all trying to do a job, whatever that may be.
"We all rely on each other," Frost said. "When the coaches ask me to get a bunt down, the whole team is counting on me to get a bunt down. We're just trying to do everything we do to help the team."
As far as the prospects of MSU winning the SEC Tournament, Frost believes it's hot enough to make a run.
The Bulldogs take a 34-21 record to Hoover after sweeping the Kentucky Wildcats over the weekend.
"Our pitchers always pitch well and they pitched well against Kentucky," Frost said. "We have quality players and we try to do what the coaches say, have quality at-bats and things started to click for us."

Axsium Group's Latest Whitepaper Describes How to Drive Continuous Improvement through Enterprise Workforce Management
Toronto, ON, February 28, 2008 - Axsium Group, Inc., North America's leading Workforce Management (WFM) consulting firm, announced today the availability of a whitepaper aimed at communicating the value and importance of continuous improvement through enterprise Workforce Management. This whitepaper is available for download at http://axsium.cyberplex.com/en/Axsium/Research/Overview.
Using case studies and real world examples, Axsium's latest white paper offers tangible evidence that companies can create a culture of continuous improvement around their enterprise WFM solutions that yields increasing returns on investment and sustainable competitive advantage. The whitepaper also explains how failures to focus on WFM as an ongoing discipline (as opposed to a point-in-time project) can handicap organizations, causing them to lag behind their competitors.
This white paper, titled Continuous Improvement through Enterprise Workforce Management demystifies some of the common roadblocks that prevent companies from maximizing the value of enterprise WFM. When properly designed and then administered within an infrastructure of continuous improvement, Enterprise WFM solutions can drive a steady stream of labor cost savings, sales increases and productivity improvements.
"We can differentiate our most successful clients because they recognize the value of committing to an evolutionary, not revolutionary, vision of Workforce Management," said Tim Lett, Managing Partner, Axsium Group. "Based on those lessons learned, we can share critical thought leadership with the community that has the potential to empower their own WFM initiatives. This research provides clear evidence of the benefits to and approaches for implementing continuous improvement."
This whitepaper is the most recent addition in a series encouraging readers to think holistically enterprise WFM. Based on Axsium Group's extensive experience engineering and implementing enterprise WFM solutions, these free whitepapers strive to simplify a number of complex WFM subjects, enabling organizations to simultaneously drive down labor costs and increase productivity and customer satisfaction.
Axsium's Americas head office is located in the historic Toronto Carpet Factory Building. The Factory employed over 1,000 people in it's prime, about the same number of people that work there today. During World War I, the company was instrumental in supplying army blankets and khaki cloth for uniforms.

- Love but wont sharpen! Review by Michelle
Value Quality Price
I love this Crayon, it is so smooth and wonderful, and such a beautiful colour (empress rose - looks way better than the sample) but I cannot get it to sharpen for the life of me and I got a new sharpener! That is why I cannot give it a 5 star rating. I am so very disappointed as I have a whole crayon that I cannot use.
Note from gloProfessional: The design of the pencil is made to ensure that the crayon does not break during application. Although this may be harder to sharpen with a regular sharpener it serves a the purpose of protecting the crayon from breaking. Our Royal Lip Crayon Sharpener should sharpen the Royal Lip Crayon without a problem. Thank you for your feedback, Michelle.

Replying to Hakimullah Mehsud and his Successors
Topic Summary

Here is our latest drone fodder. http://www.bbc.co.uk...d-asia-24854087 As you can see it's compulsory for Taliban leaders to have silly hats and even more silly beards

Definitely worth a punt in 2014 especially for the fact you get 10 points if he dies.

Bhattani only lasted 3 days. Start the new thread under Mullah Fazlullah .It must be compulsory for taliban leaders to have Mullah in their names .I thought it was a b rand of yoghurt myself.. http://www.bbc.co.uk...d-asia-24854087

He survived Wednesday, may well survive this year because the Americans won't want to annoy Pakistan any more than they already have. So if the peace talks start going badly in the new year...
Might be worth a punt. Politicians and tribal/terrorist leaders aren't noted for their ability to die of old age in Pakistan.

They're made by ZAG and sold by Stanley - do a Search for part #14325 (25 Compartment Professional Organizer). You can take out the little yellow boxes or move them around to make space for larger items.
I believe I bought them from Sam's Club for US$6 each... (US$10 online)
They're thin, light, and my favorite part - look at the back - it has the LEGO pattern - holes and studs. Yes, it's the small things that bring me amusement.

A few years ago, I searched high and low for the ideal Lego storage system. In the end, I settled on the same Zag boxes that you like. I just wish they had some long, narrow yellow inserts.

You know, you're right... some longer boxes would be good. I have about 10-15 of them (spares) that I removed to make room for the books and cables. It might be possible to take some of the spares and cut and glue them to make longer boxes. Do you have any spares left over?

I had thought about gluing some together, too, but I haven't done it. I'm using my spare bins as extra part bins.
I want to make something else for class sets of Lego. I want 12 kits that have identical pieces, and I want them set up so that the pieces go in dedicated places. My inspiration is the Dacta 1030 set, but I need to adapt it to a different set of Lego elements.
I'm thinking of using dense foam and cutting out holes to match each group of element, but I'm afraid that's way too anal retentive.

You're a braver man than me... cutting foam for pieces to insert sounds like punishment.
Hey, there's an idea for disciplining students :) kidding.

Once upon a time in the early 1970s, there was a class in racing called Pro Stock. Street machiners across the land were smitten with these rides, which were based on actual production automobiles.
It wasn't long after that people were stuffing giant L60x15 tires (on Keystone Klassic or Cragar SS mags) under the back of their hot rods and adding tunnel ram intakes to their engines, just like the real racers. This necessitated cutting a hole in the hood and adding the requisite giant scoop used by your favorite Pro Stock driver.
By the 1980s, Pro Street (as it came to be known)had taken over and guys were tubbing their cars, gutting the interiors and adding blowers, multiple carbs, wild manifolds, you name it. What stuck out of your hood was more important than what was inside the engine. Add to this wild graphics, fluorescent colors, and wheelie bars and you were the man
Few automotive trends have lasted as long as the Pro Street movement. While it has waned in popularity some, replaced in many circles by the Pro Touring/g-machine build, it is still wildly popular in the Chevy world.
Virginia's Tom Calverley is one of those who remain committed to Pro Street. And why not? In the early 1990s, Tom crewed on Jim Revis' IHRA Pro Stock Olds Cutlass, and later in the decade crewed for John Montecalvo on his IHRA Pro Stock Monte Carlo.
"That's where the inspiration came from," says Calverley, a deputy sheriff in Stafford County, Virginia. "I knew I wanted a big-inch small-block and a Lenco. I knew I wanted removable floor boards, just like a Pro Stock car."
The big decision was whether to do a '69 Camaro or a '69 Chevelle. Chevelles, Tom said, were virtually non-existent and the F-bodies were mostly junk. Ultimately, he found the right car (less engine and trans) in Fort Pierce, Florida. This was circa 2004.
Around the same time the build was commencing, Scott Shafiroff Racing Engines had introduced its 472-inch small-block and Tom knew that was the powerplant for him. His dyno'd at 673 hp at 6,000, though its high compression ratio does require expensive race gas for the 16-gallon fuel cell. Heads are Brodix 227 M2 aluminum and a Comp solid roller (0.630 lift in/ex, 256/266 degree duration cam opens the valves. Fuel comes via a Barry Grant 1090 King Demon carb and Dart Super Mod intake and leaves after combustion through Lemons 2-to-21/8-inch step headers and a Spintech exhaust system. A 2.5 inch Griffin radiator with a pair of 10-inch fans is required to keep things cool.
A 10.5-inch Ram clutch and alminum flywheel help send the power through the Lenco and back to the 4.30 gears in the Moser Engineering 9-inch.
From a driving standpoint, Tom's favorite part is sitting in the Funny Car-style cage and pulling the levers on the Lenco. Besides that, he's enraptured with its look and stance. He wanted it slammed to the ground stuffed with the biggest tires possible, just like a real Pro Stocker. As he said, you have to get the front-to-rear rake right and Tom did. It was Chris Cheek of Cheek's Performance in Fredericksburg, Virginia, who built the car, and he used Heidt's tubular A-arms (narrowed one inch), QA1 coilovers, and a Flaming River rack up front.
The rear suspension is a Competition Engineering four-link with diagonal bar and chrome-plated wheelie bars (with that company's coilover shocks). Cheek fabbed the 2x2 frame connectors with X-brace and the Lenco slide mount. The factory Chevy front clip was raised even with the side rocker panels for ground clearance and the factory inner fender panels were notched and bubbled up for tire clearance. The rear Mickey Thompsons measure a robust 33x21.5x15 and really fill up the 38-inch tubs
Tom makes himself comfortable in a Jaz fiberglass race seat and a Grant steering wheel gives him something to hold onto when he's not ripping the shift levers. Auto Meter Pro Comp gauges are set in a custom-fabbed aluminum gauge panel.
