Game One Box
Game Two Box Score
WEST POINT, N.Y. - Senior Jake Gorman (Norfolk, Mass.) went 2-for-4 including one double and one RBI as the Holy Cross baseball team defeated Army, 5-3, in the second game of the Patriot League Semifinals at Doubleday Field on Saturday afternoon. The Crusaders fell to the Black Knights, 5-1, in the first game of the series today. The Crusaders are now 22-26 overall while the Black Knights are 30-18 on the season.
In the second game, trailing 2-0 in the bottom of the third inning, Holy Cross' junior John Sills (Milton, Mass.) singled into center field and then advanced to second on a single by sophomore Jack Laurendeau (Sudbury, Mass.). A sacrifice bunt by sophomore Brendan McCrea (Hicksville, N.Y.) advanced both base runners. Junior Matt Perry (Sudbury, Mass.) reached first on a one-out fielder's choice, scoring Sills. In the top of the fifth inning, the Black Knights scored one run, taking a 3-1 lead.
In the bottom of the sixth, McCrea hit a leadoff single up the middle and then advanced to second on a single by Perry. With two outs, sophomore Eric Oxford (Danvers, Mass.) singled up the middle, scoring McCrea, making the score 3-2. In the bottom of the seventh, senior Tim Hughes (Andover, Mass.) hit a leadoff single to center field and then advanced to second on a walk by senior Billy Cupelo (Franklin, Mass.). Sills hit a sacrifice bunt but reached first base due to an error by Army to load the bases and then a walk by Laurendeau scored Hughes to tie the game. A sacrifice fly to center field by McCrea drove in Cupelo, giving Holy Cross a 4-3 lead. With two outs, Gorman doubled down the right field line, scoring Laurendeau. Both teams were held scoreless in the final two innings of the game, giving Holy Cross a 5-3 league tournament win.
Junior Bobby Holmes (Dedham, Mass.) picked up the win with three inning pitched and two strikeouts. Ben Koenigsfeld received the loss for the Black Knights, giving up five runs on seven hits while striking out three batters in six innings.
In the first game, Laurendeau scored the lone Crusader run on a solo home run to left field in the top of the eighth inning.
The Crusaders return to action on Sunday, May 10, as they face Army in the final game of the Patriot League semifinals at 1:00 p.m. Tomorrow's game will determine who will play the winner of the Bucknell/Lafayette series in the league championship series. Bucknell and Lafayette split their doubleheader this afternoon.

The Best-Known Taste in the World
In Atlanta, Georgia, on May 8, 1886, Dr. John Stith Pemberton, a local pharmacist, produced the syrup for Coca-Cola®, and carried a jug of the new product down the street to Jacobs' Pharmacy, where it was sampled, pronounced "excellent" and placed on sale for five cents a glass as a soda fountain drink. Carbonated water was teamed with the new syrup to produce a drink that was at once "Delicious and Refreshing," a theme that continues to echo today wherever Coca-Cola is enjoyed.

Last year, a group of Claremont Middle School's super-parents raised money for a digital media lab so that kids could learn professional video editing and animation software. They lent a good amount of creativity and elbow grease to the project, devoting weekend days before the start of school.
Mike Mages, one of the dads who spearheaded the project, was there when the lab opened this fall. And last month, he came running to the scene after a major break-in. Mages said thieves ripped off four of the school's 20 new iMacs, a projector and a 52-inch LCD display just before winter break.
The thing that really bothers Mages, though, is that the theft might have been prevented. He said school administrators had requested deadbolts months before the burglary, and that they never came — well, at least until after the damage had been done.
"Literally, within an hour of the break-in, they had guys here putting locks in," he said. "I call them the $8,000 locks."
Now I don't know the other side of the story, but this doesn't sound like an unusual scenario. I suspect it's a staffing issue, at least in part — which doesn't bode well for the response time after the next round of budget cuts.
What will it take for OUSD to better protect its assets, and what can schools (and parents) do in the meantime?

The state's comptroller isn't a fan of the idea of using public funds on the construction of the Obama presidential library.
Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka believes the state has higher priorities than appropriating $100 million for the library, specifically pointing to the state's bill backlog.
"I mean, I still have over $5 billion worth of bills to pay," Topinka said. "They don't go away. So, you know, before we start looking at new things to do, we've got to take care of that. We just have to, and I'm gonna ride that horse into the sunset."
Topinka says she's not entirely opposed to using some public funds on the library, but only once private fundraising efforts have been exhausted. Even then, she believes $100 million is too high of a price for the state.
The proposal was introduced by House Speaker Michael Madigan (D-Chicago), but it has not been brought up for a floor vote. Hawaii and New York are also considering bids for the library.

Hey All,
On the DPM newsgroup (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/dataprotectionmanager) there was a very interesting thread the last few days. One of the users asked if it was possible to include all volumes into a Bare Metal Recovery
As you might know, Bare Metal Recovery only protects the critical volumes (boot + system + volumes hosting files of server roles), so if you have a volume with applications or user data or whatever, you need to protect it also. Now that is not a problem because you can choose BMR and also the additional volumes
Now the user said that this was not OK, because in a disaster, he wanted to recover as quickly as possible.
Luckily, Praveen D [MSFT] found out a good solution, one which I think can be very helpful in some cases, so here goes…
DPM uses windows backup to do the job. So in your DPM\bin folder, you will find a file called BmrBackup.cmd. Inside this cmd you will find the command that drives windows backup.
With BMR, you will see something like:
start /WAIT %SystemRoot%\system32\wbadmin.exe start backup -allcritical -quiet -backuptarget:%1
If you add the option –include:VolumeLetter:,VolumeLetter: then you add your volumes in the BMR. Don't forget to increase the volumes for your replica and recovery point volumes.
Thanks Praveen
Mike Resseler

Zlob Variants
I have attached a few Zlob Variants that I have collected over the last month incase anyone was interested in its progression.
One of the six files is not detected by any online scanners atm, yes even NOD32.
NOD is usually good at detecting the variants but for some reason this one spooked it. I only scan the "ecodec.exe" to limit the flagging by default of the other files in the self extracting archive. I have only upped the ecodec.exe's.
Some scanners never get the new ones, some may say "suspicious" but IMO that is not enough to warrant a "detection".

Wr.Up Freddy, pants shaping curves
Model curves to correct the defects, to be beautiful and toned. Would not it be wonderful if there were a pair of pants like that? There are many brands of clothing that promise a B-side dream, but few are those who truly realize the commitment made by the customers. Maybe there's an interesting news for the ladies and celebrities are already completely crazy (you can see from the photo gallery).
It is Wr Up for Freddy, trousers in jersey that is gaining more and more fans. Among the famous people who already wear are beautiful actresses and sports such as Laura Chiatti, Eleonora Abbagnato, Marica Pellegrinelli and Violante Placido. But why love it so much? First of all it is comfortable and then gives a perfect shape.
It is true Chiatti, Eleonora Abbagnato, Marica Pellegrinelli and Violante Placido already have a great physique, probably due to mother nature but also strict diets and hours of sport. These ladies always have the cameras and cameras aimed at helping him at all times of the day and can not afford to look dowdy or shabby.
The Wr Up Freddy is then the head just to be simple, but they appear in order at all times. What are the models? You can choose between long or short, capri or 7/8, WR.UP. Then there are many colors. Those who want to dare to choose between the neon yellow, orange, fuchsia and turquoise, if you prefer, instead of a more classic can be directed on black, beige and blue.

Report: US government now buys more malware than anyone else in the world
7 Responses to Report: US government now buys more malware than anyone else in the world
theyre also the biggest criminals in the world
Every human being has the ability to choose goodness over destruction the bad part now is that destruction' to me seems like the best American option that way when everyone is dune fighting!
Someone can place humty dumpty back together again, in some fashion, that gives freedom, once again the chance to shine! Shine through our eyes and give all our children the same chances that we took for granted, and to have some resemblance of a happy societal because frankly ours is just plain bad awfull to me!
"We are all criminal and saints one will go one will stay"
"The reference to the article is malware"
what are you talking about?
[* ] – [ *]
So instead of using our money to make our lives safer, they use our money to stoke the malware/virus market and don't tell us when they find anything in the wild we should be concerned about. Because, of instead of letting us know so we can take steps to secure ourselves and protect our information, they use the exploit themselves to gain access to your information.
I'm getting confused, who is the enemy that we need to be concerned about?

Lets talk about horse trailer floors and ramps
So I'm looking to replace the rubber mats in my horse trailer this year once the weather settles down and warms up and I got to looking at the floor and ramp and have these questions:
1. My ramp looks like it needs to be replaced. I didn't take it off since I am still using the trailer and its "okay". It looked bolted on - once I take it off will it be noticeable how I need to bolt it back on to the metal ramp?
2. Besides very obvious damage, what are signs to look for to replace the wood floors? My wood floors look okay and feel solid but I know sometimes looks can be deceiving. I would rather replace something sooner than really needed but I don't want to be wasteful either.
3. Should the ramp and floor be waterproofed with the sealer before installation?
4. What kind of wood do I use and where do I get it? Is it just lumberyard wood?
5. Is there any way to reinforce the floors so that if the wood does break there's something I can do to potentially help the horse come through okay? It's a big fear of mine that he will crash through while I'm driving though its not based on anything other than me being paranoid.
6. Is the floor just laid down or is it attached in some way? (I didn't go looking too closely)
7. Should I always replace both sides of the flooring or does the side I don't use have less importance?(I have a 2h bumper pull and only ever haul my own horse).
Posted via Mobile Device
Hey I've had a bunch of trailers LOL, I really like to buy and sell... Like everything I own several times over ha ha... So I'll try to answer what I've learned from my experiences with that.
1) sometimes, I know this isnt the answer you want but, its how it is. I wouldn't bank on remembering where the bolts go so I would figure out a system of remembering what goes where, especially in the ramp style trailers because they to my knowledge have spring mechanisms which make it easier to move up and down. Versus moving the entire 200lb slab of wood/metal up and down.
2) things to look for... I would look for areas of excessive rust and mark them if you plan to do something about Slowing down it's oxidation process. In regards to the wood though, I would replace anything wood that looks soft, cracked, excessively dry, excessively moist, very dark or very gray. Though 9/10 of the times it's fine structurally but, like you said better safe than sorry. I would especially check the wood nearest to the walls because that's where moisture tends to collect the most.
3) you can waterproof and seal it. I'm planning to stain and varnish the whole inside of my trailer tack room and horse compartment. Though I would consider whether or not it will affect your horses ability to gain traction on the ramp.
4) I would only use 2x8 pressure treated STRUCTURAL wood. Some people don't like persecute treated wood because it's got formaldehyde but, I still do for safety.
5) you can, once you lay your floor down, put a large piece of plywood onto of the wood floor but, under your mats. though I would be cognizant and pull the ply when the trailer was in storage as it likely would retain a large amount of moisture. Wth 2x8 structural wood checked and maintained regularly I wouldn't be too concerned honestly.
Hope this helped you a bit
I would always replace both sides, just because you're already doing it and lumbar is pretty cheap. Not to mention for resale people are going to be like "... You only replaced half of the floor?..." lol, or in other words, not very impressed.
To answer your question about installation it really depends on your trailer. I've heard of people having to cut the middle beam to slide the planks in and reweld when they were done. Though i cut the wood along the beams, popped the rusted screws with a chisel and a hammer. Then I slid the new planks in (after taking the old ones out of course). But, be cognizant of where your light wires are because I've seen older trailers that run their wires along the wood beams.
well did you look at the wood you could check the wood by taken a screwdriver and seeing if you could go though the floor check you under side that is were the rot will start

Sean Lowe's Bachelor Blog: "Am I Going To Make It Out Alive?"
Sean Lowe isn't a man of many words (he's a man of many abs), but did you know he's a secret literary genius? Welcome to the wonderful world of Sean's People Bachelor Blog, a fabulous place where all your fantasy fiction dreams come true. Plus, we love that Sean is giving us a sneak peek into what he was thinking during the Season 17 premiere!
"I was filled with an excitement that I can't quite put into words," Sean muses. "I was so anxious to meet the women and I had so many questions that needed answering. Would I feel a connection with anyone? Am I going to meet my future wife tonight? Can I really carry on 25 different conversations with 25 different women? Am I going to make it out alive?"
Answer: probably not. Though apparently Sean had a lovely time during his first cocktail hour! "Any nerves I had going into the first night were calmed by the unusual and very funny antics of a few women," he says. "The woman who made the biggest entrance of the night had to be Lindsay. The girl showed up in a wedding dress! My first thought was that she was crazy, but I quickly learned that it was just her quirky sense of humor and she wasn't afraid to put herself out there."
As we know (wait, no we don't) being in a room with 26 potential lovers can make a dude hungry — but fear not. Sean took care of business. "There came a point during the evening when I had to get away for a few minutes by myself to eat and decompress," he says.
So, what do we have to look forward to next week? We'll leave you with this tasty tidbit: "my photo session with a group of vampires." Um, we want to go to there.

That is one awesome looking bathtub.
With the drains and all, it looks like a mini-pool in the comfort of your own home. And no worries about leaving it to overflow, just turn on and leave. Come back when you're ready. I literally got up from work and went home just to show this to my husband.

Fitbit is one of the most well respected names in the quantified-self space, so we expected a lot of the Fitbit Flex. When we put the device in front of Terrence O'Brien, he found that it wasn't the most feature-packed, or the flashiest, but certainly the most well-rounded device on the market. That was despite the fact that the Nike Fuelband had a better display and the Jawbone Up had a better mobile platform. One of the reasons, of course, that the Flex won out was its cheaper price, and you can rarely argue with that. What we'd like you all to do this week is to sign up to our product forums and discuss what, if Fitbit came knocking on your door, you'd change.

We had so much fun following Charice around for Teen.com's "30 Days With Charice" web series that now we're going through withdrawal! Lucky for us, the super adorbs singing sensation (and Glee guest star) is taking time out of her busy schedule to answer some fan questions. Score!
Yeah, we're still anxiously awaiting her return to the show — even if it is as a member of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline — but in the meantime, here's your chance to get connected to Charice as she tours the world. Ready, set, ask!

A number of different technologies were previously deployed with essentially identical goals, such as frame relay and ATM. MPLS technologies have evolved with the strengths and weaknesses of ATM in mind. Many network engineers agree that ATM should be replaced with a protocol that requires less overhead, while providing connection-oriented services for variable-length frames. MPLS is currently replacing some of these technologies in the marketplace. It is highly possible that MPLS will completely replace these technologies in the future, thus aligning these technologies with current and future technology needs.
In particular, MPLS dispenses with the cell-switching and signaling-protocol baggage of ATM. MPLS recognizes that small ATM cells are not needed in the core of modern networks, since modern optical networks (as of 2008) are so fast (at 40 Gbit/s and beyond) that even full-length 1500 byte packets do not incur significant real-time queuing delays (the need to reduce such delays — e.g., to support voice traffic — was the motivation for the cell nature of ATM).
At the same time, MPLS attempts to preserve the traffic engineering and out-of-band control that made frame relay and ATM attractive for deploying large-scale networks.
While the traffic management benefits of migrating to MPLS are quite valuable (better reliability, increased performance), there is a significant loss of visibility and access into the MPLS cloud for IT departments.
MPLS was originally proposed by a group of engineers from Ipsilon Networks, but their "IP Switching" technology, which was defined only to work over ATM, did not achieve market dominance. Cisco Systems, Inc. introduced a related proposal, not restricted to ATM transmission, called "Tag Switching" when it was a Cisco proprietary proposal, and was renamed "Label Switching" when it was handed over to the IETF for open standardization. The IETF work involved proposals from other vendors, and development of a consensus protocol that combined features from several vendors' work.
One original motivation was to allow the creation of simple high-speed switches, since for a significant length of time it was impossible to forward IP packets entirely in hardware. However, advances in VLSI have made such devices possible. Therefore the advantages of MPLS primarily revolve around the ability to support multiple service models and perform traffic management. MPLS also offers a robust recovery framework that goes beyond the simple protection rings of synchronous optical networking (SONET/SDH).
These MPLS-labeled packets are switched after a Label Lookup/Switch instead of a lookup into the IP table. As mentioned above, when MPLS was conceived, Label Lookup and Label Switching were faster than a RIB lookup because they could take place directly within the switched fabric and not the CPU.
The entry and exit points of an MPLS network are called Label Edge Routers (LER), which, respectively, push an MPLS label onto the incoming packet and pop it off the outgoing packet. Routers that perform routing based only on the label are called Label Switch Routers (LSR). In some applications, the packet presented to the LER already may have a label, so that the new LSR pushes a second label onto the packet. For more information see Penultimate Hop Popping.
Labels are distributed between LERs and LSRs using the "Label Distribution Protocol" (LDP). Label Switch Routers in an MPLS network regularly exchange label and reachability information with each other using standardized procedures in order to build a complete picture of the network they can then use to forward packets. Label Switch Paths (LSPs) are established by the network operator for a variety of purposes, such as to create network-based IP Virtual Private Networks or to route traffic along specified paths through the network. In many respects, LSPs are no different than PVCs in ATM or Frame Relay networks, except that they are not dependent on a particular Layer 2 technology.
In the specific context of an MPLS-based Virtual Private Network (VPN), LSRs that function as ingress and/or egress routers to the VPN are often called PE (Provider Edge) routers. Devices that function only as transit routers are similarly called P (Provider) routers. See RFC 2547. The job of a P router is significantly easier than that of a PE router, so they can be less complex and may be more dependable because of this.
When an unlabeled packet enters the ingress router and needs to be passed on to an MPLS tunnel, the router first determines the forwarding equivalence class (FEC) the packet should be in, and then inserts one or more labels in the packet's newly-created MPLS header. The packet is then passed on to the next hop router for this tunnel.
When a labeled packet is received by an MPLS router, the topmost label is examined. Based on the contents of the label a swap, push (impose) or pop (dispose) operation can be performed on the packet's label stack. Routers can have prebuilt lookup tables that tell them which kind of operation to do based on the topmost label of the incoming packet so they can process the packet very quickly.
In a swap operation the label is swapped with a new label, and the packet is forwarded along the path associated with the new label.
In a push operation a new label is pushed on top of the existing label, effectively "encapsulating" the packet in another layer of MPLS. This allows hierarchical routing of MPLS packets. Notably, this is used by MPLS VPNs.
In a pop operation the label is removed from the packet, which may reveal an inner label below. This process is called "decapsulation". If the popped label was the last on the label stack, the packet "leaves" the MPLS tunnel. This is usually done by the egress router, but see PHP below.
During these operations, the contents of the packet below the MPLS Label stack are not examined. Indeed transit routers typically need only to examine the topmost label on the stack. The forwarding of the packet is done based on the contents of the labels, which allows "protocol-independent packet forwarding" that does not need to look at a protocol-dependent routing table and avoids the expensive IP longest prefix match at each hop.
At the egress router, when the last label has been popped, only the payload remains. This can be an IP packet, or any of a number of other kinds of payload packet. The egress router must therefore have routing information for the packet's payload, since it must forward it without the help of label lookup tables. An MPLS transit router has no such requirement.
In some special cases, the last label can also be popped off at the penultimate hop (the hop before the egress router). This is called Penultimate Hop Popping (PHP). This may be interesting in cases where the egress router has lots of packets leaving MPLS tunnels, and thus spends inordinate amounts of CPU time on this. By using PHP, transit routers connected directly to this egress router effectively offload it, by popping the last label themselves.
MPLS can make use of existing ATM network infrastructure, as its labeled flows can be mapped to ATM virtual circuit identifiers, and vice versa.
Extensions of the BGP protocol, starting with RFC 2547, can be used to manage an MPLS path, including RFC 3107 and RFC 4781. .
An MPLS header does not identify the type of data carried inside the MPLS path. If one wants to carry two different types of traffic between the same two routers, with different treatment from the core routers for each type, one has to establish a separate MPLS path for each type of traffic.
In the event of a network element failure when recovery mechanisms are employed at the IP layer, restoration may take several seconds which is unacceptable for real-time applications (such as VoIP). In contrast, MPLS local protection meets the requirements of real-time applications with recovery times comparable to those of SONET rings (up to 50ms).
Telcos often sell frame relay to businesses looking for a cheaper alternative to dedicated lines; its use in different geographic areas depended greatly on governmental and telecommunication companies' policies.
AT&T is currently (as of June 2007) the largest frame relay service provider in the United States, with local networks in 22 states, plus national and international networks. This number is expected to change between 2007 and 2009 when most of these frame relay contracts expire. Many customers are likely to migrate from frame relay to MPLS over IP or Ethernet within the next two years, which in many cases will reduce costs and improve manageability and performance of their wide area networks.
The most significant difference is in the transport and encapsulation methods. MPLS is able to work with variable length packets while ATM transports fixed-length (53 byte) cells. Packets must be segmented, transported and re-assembled over an ATM network using an adaption layer, which adds significant complexity and overhead to the data stream. MPLS, on the other hand, simply adds a label to the head of each packet and transmits it on the network.
Differences exist, as well, in the nature of the connections. An MPLS connection (LSP) is uni-directional - allowing data to flow in only one direction between two endpoints. Establishing two-way communications between endpoints requires a pair of LSPs to be established. Because 2 LSPs are required for connectivity, data flowing in the forward direction may use a different path from data flowing in the reverse direction. ATM point-to-point connections (Virtual Circuits), on the other hand, are bi-directional, allowing data to flow in both directions over the same path (bi-directional are only SVC ATM connections; PVC ATM connections are uni-directional).
Both ATM and MPLS support tunneling of connections inside connections. MPLS uses label stacking to accomplish this while ATM uses Virtual Paths. MPLS can stack multiple labels to form tunnels within tunnels. The ATM Virtual Path Indicator (VPI) and Virtual Circuit Indicator (VCI) are both carried together in the cell header, limiting ATM to a single level of tunnelling.
The biggest single advantage that MPLS has over ATM is that it was designed from the start to be complementary to IP. Modern routers are able to support both MPLS and IP natively across a common interface allowing network operators great flexibility in network design and operation. ATM's incompatibilities with IP require complex adaptation, making it comparatively less suitable for today's predominantly IP networks.
In practice, MPLS is mainly used to forward IP datagrams and Ethernet traffic. Major applications of MPLS are Telecommunications traffic engineering and MPLS VPN.
IEEE 1355 is a completely unrelated technology that does something similar in hardware.
IPv6 references: Grossetete, Patrick, IPv6 over MPLS, Cisco Systems 2001; Juniper Networks IPv6 and Infranets White Paper; Juniper Networks DoD's Research and Engineering Community White Paper.
MPLS supports a range of access technologies, including T1, ATM and frame relay. In April 2008, New Edge Networks announced traffic prioritization on its MPLS network available via less expensive DSL access. Previously, traffic prioritization was not possible across DSL connections.
MPLS provides networks with a more efficient way to manage applications and move information between locations. With the convergence of voice, video and data applications, business networks face increasing traffic demands. MPLS enables class of service (CoS) tagging and prioritization of network traffic, so administrators may specify which applications should move across the network ahead of others. This function makes an MPLS network especially important to firms that need to ensure the performance of low-latency applications such as VoIP and their other business-critical functions. MPLS carriers differ on the number of classes of service they offer and in how these CoS tiers are priced.

Wells: Only 3 emergency response units available for entire District
Ongoing issues with D.C.'s emergency medical staff came to the forefront Monday after a D.C. councilman toured a district 911 call center and discovered that there were only three medical transport units available for the entire city.
Councilman Tommy Wells said in a statement Monday that the three emergency transport units were also located in NW.
This is not to say that there were no other emergency response vehicles working. During Wells' visit to the call center at the non-peak time 10:30 a.m., 31 units were on a response call or at a hospital while five of the remaining eight ambulances weren't available for unnamed reasons.
"This is exactly why we must take a long, hard look at the proposed ambulance redeployment plan. The prevailing issues with our Fire and EMS fleet readiness are of grave concern to me, the Council, and the public," Wells said in a statement.
Earlier this year, D.C. Fire Chief Ken Ellerbe said nearly half of the city's ambulances are out of service.
The city's emergency department has been in the spotlight after an MPD officer waited for more than 20 minutes after he was injured in SE D.C.

Gabriel Project opens site at Marshall
HUNTINGTON -- The Gabriel Project of West Virginia has opened a client services site at the Newman Center at Marshall University, 1609 5th Ave.
The Marshall University Gabriel Project will provide tangible baby items -- cribs, car seats, diapers, formula, clothing and baby wipes -- at no or low cost to pregnant students and to student families with children under the age of 2. The Marshall University Gabriel Project will also provide emotional support, answer questions about baby care and make referrals to other community organizations.
Assistance will primarily be provided by student volunteers.
The project funding was provided by the 1st and 10 Foundation, which was established by former Marshall and NFL quarterback Chad Pennington and his wife, Robin.
"There is a definite need for our services among Marshall's student families," said site coordinator Traci Ann Ferguson. "Students who are pregnant or who have young children are often struggling to provide for basic baby needs while at the same time continue their education and hold down one or more jobs. We can help with these basic baby items as well as offer emotional support, baby care information and assistance with community referrals."
The Gabriel Project of West Virginia is an independent ecumenical nonprofit organization serving West Virginia families in 27 counties throughout the state. It does not impose financial eligibility criteria on potential clients and services are provided without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, disability or national origin. Although the Gabriel Project primarily serves mothers and mothers-to-be, it also assist fathers and grandparents caring for their child or grandchild.
The organization does not offer pregnancy testing, crisis pregnancy services, counseling, housing or utility assistance, but can refer clients to other community resources for help with those needs.
The Marshall University Gabriel Project is now open by appointment as needed. For more information or to make a donation of baby items, call 304-525-4618. For more information about the organization, visit www.gabrielwv.org.

The Macropædia was introduced in the 15th edition (1974) with 19 volumes having 4,207 articles. In the drastic reorganization of that edition in 1985, these articles were combined and condensed into 17 volumes with roughly 700 articles, ranging in length from 2-310 pages. The longest article, on the United States, resulted from the merging of the 50 articles on each state. The articles of the Macropædia are generally written by named contributors and have references, in contrast to the roughly 65,000 articles of the Micropædia that have no named contributor and no references. However, some parts of the Macropædia were written by the editorial staff of the Britannica; such editorial articles are identified by the initials "Ed."
Since its reorganization, the Macropædia has not remained constant. New articles are constantly being added, whereas older articles are sometimes split, absorbed into other articles or drastically shortened, even deleted. An example of the latter is the 1989 article on Adhesives, which had its own article of 7 pages in the 1989 Macropædia but was merely a page in a different article of the 1991 edition.

Film: Craftsmanship and men's fashion collide in this stylish film with Job Wouters
Job Wouters is a calligrapher, artist and illustrator based in Amsterdam, who has made creating large-scale typographic murals his thing. His aesthetic combines traditional craftsmanship with a contemporary minimalist edge, which might explain why Italian brand Canali chose to collaborate with him to celebrate their anniversary in this short video for Nowness, in which he creates 80 calligraphic pieces – one for every year of the brand's existence. The slick simplicity of the video's composition paired with his unfaltering brush makes for dangerously dreamy, almost hypnotic watching which makes even glancing down at the predictability of your keyboard again entirely unappealing. You've been warned.
If you fancy familiarising yourself with his work then you can also see the brilliant talk he gave with his equally talented brother Roel at our annual creative Symposium Here back in 2012. It's available to watch in full now on our audio-visual channel First Broadcast.

The Bachelor
Bachelor Ben Flajnik's Hair: 5 New Styles He Should Consider
Not since Donald Trump has one man's follicular activity been the recipient of so much ire. Ben Flajnik's The Bachelor Season 16 has certainly doled out a lot of drama early, but it's hard to ignore the one big conflict going on atop his head. (Sorry, @BachelorBenHair.)
Would combing help? Does he need a haircut? Should they let it grow out a little longer? Part in the middle or not at all?
Unfortunately, neither Ben nor the Bachelor hair department have been able to figure it out. So we'd like to be of some service to the Flajnik-ator (that works, right?). While it's too late to do anything about his poorly groomed, overly long shag right now, Bachelors and Bachelorettes usually have the opportunity to show off a slight makeover by the time "The Women/Men Tell All" or "After the Final Rose" specials roll around (see: Ashley Hebert's color change, Emily Maynard's sleeker locks).
And so it is WITH LOVE that we submit some suggestions for Ben's consideration. Here are some celebrity-inspired looks that we've envisioned for our favorite wine maker for his post-Bachelor life... scroll through and let us know which you like best! (Or least worst?)
Punk Ben
The hair, inspired by American Idol's Adam Lambert, may not fit with Ben's laid-back, California boy vibe/style, but sometimes a drastic change is just what you need to start a new chapter (of loooove) in your life.
Bieber Ben
Why not? Justin doesn't need it anymore.
Twi Ben
Gel: It worked for Robert Pattinson. Need we say more?
Silver Fox Ben
We know Ben is still in his 20s, but gray is the new black (or brown... ), and there are many celebrities whose sexy quotient actually went up since they gave into their hair destiny (see: George Clooney, Anderson Cooper, John Slattery). Nothing wrong with getting a head start!
Fabio Ben
Maybe the problem with Ben's hair is that it hasn't reached its full potential. With a little time (and a lot of deep conditioning), we could see it having a certain appeal. And if the wine business goes sour (ha!), he could start a career as a cover model for those romance novels Chris Harrison will inevitably write after he retires from hosting the Bachelor .
Need your daily dose of The Bachelor? Like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter. After all, you'd get our final rose.
