Hoosiers Explode for Five Runs in Sixth to Win Bronze Bracket
March 11, 2007
CLEARWATER, Fla. - Junior Tory Yamaguchi went 4-for-4 and Indiana erupted for five runs with two out in the sixth inning to top Fordham 7-2 on Sunday, March 11, to win the championship game of the Bronze Bracket at the USF adidas Invitational.
Indiana (6-9) took advantage of an odd series of events to plate the go-ahead runs in the top half of the sixth inning. With Yamaguchi on second via a ground-rule double, sophomore Emily Bergeson grounded out to short on a 3-1 pitch to apparently end the inning. But Fordham reliever Rachael Wiggins was called for an illegal pitch on the play, turning the groundout into a walk and sending Yamaguchi to third to prolong the inning. The Hoosiers quickly capitalized, as junior Janetta Deaven smashed the first pitch she saw to the gap in right center for a two-run double. Sophomore Julie DiNallo then reached on Wiggins' fielding error, giving IU new life once again, and Deaven then scored on a wild pitch. Senior Kim Richards kept the improbable rally going, smacking a two-run home run over the fence in left center to knock Wiggins from the game.
Starter Sara Kinney returned to the circle for the Rams (9-9) and promptly surrendered a triple to center off the bat of junior Julia Hamilton, but Kinney recovered to get a flyout to center to end the inning.
The Hoosiers drew first blood in the contest, striking for a pair of runs in the top of the fourth. Yamaguchi was again the catalyst, as she stroked a one-out double to left center to get things going. After freshman Kristin King came on to pinch-run for Yamaguchi, senior Rachel Terry singled to center to put runners at the corners with just one out. Bergeson then laid down an excellent sacrifice bunt, and the Rams were unable to get King at the plate.
After a Kinney wild pitch advanced Terry and Bergeson, IU would add another run on Deaven's sacrifice fly to center, making the score 2-0 in favor of the Hoosiers.
Fordham got on the board in the bottom of the fifth, finally getting to Indiana starter Jennifer Moore, who had cruised to that point. Melissa Andrews got the Rams' offense on track with a one-out single to center, and Krystle Henry followed with a double off the glove of Indiana third baseman Jennilee Huddleston to put runners and second and third with no one out. Moore was called for a balk to score Andrews, and one out later, Allison Twarowski doubled to score Henry with the tying run.
The Hoosiers then went to the bull pen, bringing in their ace, sophomore Monica Wright. Wright needed just two pitches to stop the bleeding, inducing a groundout to second to end the inning.
Fresh off surrendering the lead, Indiana responded with its big sixth inning, getting five runs on four hits and an error to put the game out of reach. Wright shut the door on the Rams in the sixth, retiring the side in order, before surviving a pair of seventh-inning walks to nail down the win.
Wright improved to 4-6 on the season with 2 1/3 innings of scoreless relief in which she surrendered just two walks and no hits. Moore did not figure into the decision, as she gave up two runs on six hits and a walk in 4 2/3 innings pitched.
Wiggins fell to 0-1 on the season after allowing five runs, two earned, on three hits and a walk in just 2/3 of an inning pitched. Kinney earned a no-decision, allowing two runs on seven hits and a walk in 6 1/3 innings pitched.
Richards finished 2-for-3 with a run and two RBIs, while Deaven was 1-for-3 with a run and three RBIs for the Hoosiers. Twarowski finished 3-for-4 with an RBI to pace the Rams' offense.
With the win, Indiana overcame an 0-5 record in Pool D play to post a 3-0 record in bracket play and win the Bronze Bracket. IU pounded out 16 hits in an 11-3 win over Wagner in five innings on Saturday before topping Big Ten rival Michigan State 5-4 in eight innings on Sunday morning.
The Hoosiers remain in the Tampa area for the University of South Florida Tournament on March 13-14. Indiana will take on George Mason and Quinnipiac at 9:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., respectively, on Tuesday, March 13.

Here's a woman we'd love to get alone in a room for 5 minutes. This is pretty disturbing, folks.
A female kindergarten teacher in northern China's Shanxi Province has been detained by authorities after she was caught on surveillance video smacking children around, according to local authorities.
Li Zhuqing, who slapped a five-year-old girl in the face along with other kids at the Sky Montessori Kindergarten in Yingze District of the capital Taiyuan, has been placed under a 15-day administrative detention, said a spokesman with the district.
Plain and simple…this woman should be locked up and never allowed near children ever again. If she has kids of her own, they need to be taken away immediately. There is no excuse for this type of behavior in the world.
Check out her horrific actions below.
CAUTION: Disturbing…

Kim Zolciak's Don't Be Tardy Spin-Off Premiere: What Did You Think?
After months of anticipation, Kim Zolciak's spin-off, Don't Be Tardy..., finally premiered this evening with back-to-back episodes and the show started off with a bang: hello, baby Kash!
For the next hour, we watched Kim going about her life, from finding out her new house has a mold problem, to trying to organize her gazillion pairs of sweatpants, to throwing Ariana a trampoline party, to coming to the realization that she wears drag queen makeup.
The real drama started at the end of the first episode, when Kim receives the news that her mother is not only suing her for visitation rights to see Brielle and Ariana, but she's also planning to write a tell-all book about Kim and her stripper past, even though Kim denies ever stripping.
Later, she has to tell her daughters about the lawsuit after the story explodes in the Twitterverse.
No one said being a Zolciak is easy!
Did you enjoy Don't Be Tardy as much as we did, or will you be dropping it from your DVR schedule?

KHOBAR, Saudi Arabia: Financially troubled Saudi Arabian construction company Mohammad Al Mojil Group (MMG) plans to start legal action to collect dues and claims worth more than 400 million riyals ($107 million), it said on Sunday.
The company said it would take legal action against the Saudi unit of Britain's Petrofac, Saudi Binladin Group, and South Korea's SK Engineering and Construction, an affiliate of SK Holdings.
MMG, which is restructuring its operations after being hit by heavy losses and accumulated debt, said in a bourse statement that the legal action was coming after "all available solutions and options were exhausted".
It did not give details of the legal action. It added that it would take measures against other companies, but did not elaborate.
Officials at Saudi Binladin and the Saudi operations of Petrofac and SK Engineering were not immediately available to comment.
In November last year, shareholders in MMG rejected the idea of liquidating the company, which is involved in oil and gas projects, mainly for state oil company Saudi Aramco.
The company's recovery plan includes asset sales, cutting bank debt and absorbing accumulated losses.
MMG is involved in building part of Aramco's Wasit gas programme, as well as the Aramco-Sinopec refinery in Yanbu, among others. It has branches in the United Arab Emirates.

On the morning of December 4, 2004, two patrolmen swept the Corbin home, then waved the EMS team inside. The teams entered the master bedroom and found it just as Kelly Comeau had reported. The woman who lay across the bed had what appeared to be a single gunshot wound behind her right ear. The palm of her hand rested very close to the butt of the .38-caliber revolver. Medics checked her for signs of life. They found none.
Patrol Sgt. E. T. Edkin joined his officers and immediately saw that there was nothing they could do for the blonde woman. At first look, it appeared that she had killed herself. Still, with his years of experience working homicides, Edkin questioned whether this was, in fact, a suicide. With crime scene tape, Edkin set up a perimeter around the house and yard, and then briefed homicide detective Marcus Head, who took charge, about his suspicion that this death was not what it seemed.
Kelly Comeau now approached and asked if someone could get clothes for Jenn's two boys — they were still in their pajamas. Officer Michelle Johns went upstairs and grabbed pants, shirts, shoes and socks from what was obviously the children's bedroom. Glancing into another bedroom on the second floor, she saw the clothes of an adult male hanging neatly in the closet.
Crime scene investigators from the Gwinnett County police department and forensic staff from the medical examiner's office began arriving. All sudden and/or unattended deaths were worked first as homicides, next as possible suicides, third as accidental, and only then as a natural occurrence. Nobody yet knew where the dead woman would fit. A search warrant was being obtained; detectives were trying to locate relatives of Jennifer Corbin.
Neither Kelly Comeau nor her husband, Steve, knew where Bart was. Kelly managed to find a number for his mother, Connie Corbin, who lived nearby. Steve called her at 8:45 a.m. "Jennifer's been shot," he said.
Connie then called her younger son, Bobby, and told him what had happened. He said that Bart was with him and he would break the awful news. Steve Comeau also called Heather, Jenn's sister, who lived about 25 miles away. Heather collapsed in tears, crying out, "Jenn's dead!"
"We ran through the house, collecting our kids," recalled Doug Tierney, Heather's husband. They headed for Max and Narda's house. "In the car, I called Bobby back and said, 'Where's Bart? Is Bart with you?' and he said, 'Yes, he's here, but he's really, really upset.' "
Doug asked if he and Bart would be on their way over to the Corbin house. Bobby avoided answering. "Heather kept saying, 'Go! Go! We have to take care of the boys.' " Doug asked Bobby Corbin again, "Are you on your way?" There was no response.
Doug couldn't believe it. Surely Bart realized that Dalton and Dillon needed their father? Meantime, fighting panic and disbelief, Max Barber got in his car and drove as fast as he could to Jenn's house.
Detectives at the scene kept expecting Jenn Corbin's widower to drive up any minute. They assumed he would be crying and upset but that, like most fathers, he'd pull himself together and race to his children in a crisis. It was eight hours before Corbin called the detectives back.
By then he had "lawyered up," according to Marcus Head. He agreed to meet at police headquarters to be tested for the presence of gun residue, but he would answer no questions — not even about securing his home.
Marcus Head spoke briefly to the young boys, who remained at the Comeaus' home until their extended family could arrive. Dalton told the detective he had gone to wake his mother to fix breakfast and he had seen blood coming from her mouth. He had also seen the gun.
"I tried to call 911 from our phone," he said, "but it didn't work. So I ran to Kelly and Steve's to get help." The boys were questioned again later at police headquarters. When a detective asked Dalton if he wondered why his phone wasn't working, the boy replied, "Maybe my dad cut it off."

With the first day of school on the horizon, my meal planning has turned from dinners on the grill back to the offerings of my trusty, effortless slow cooker.
And with recipes like this one, I'm not even sad.
There's no question that a crock pot is ideal for cooking roast. But if you want to take that same cut of beef and branch out a bit from the ordinary, French dip sandwiches are the way to go.
You'll hardly believe that such a simple recipe can yield such a flavorful outcome. It doesn't get any easier than this, folks. Mix together a few ingredients that will end up serving as the "dip" in your French dip. Then plop in your roast, slow cook all day, and serve the succulent, falling-apart beef on a toasty baguette with plenty of provolone cheese melted over the top and, of course, a generous crock of the cooking broth on the side.
Bear with me for a moment, but when the crunchy bread soaks up that deep, savory beef broth, I'm reminded of the episode of Friends when Ross' leftover Thanksgiving turkey sandwich gets stolen out of the refrigerator at work. He is highly upset because he doesn't get to enjoy his once-a-year sandwich with its piece of gravy-soaked bread in the center dubbed "the moistmaker."
Well, this French dip sandwich has a moistmaker as well and it's the jus, which is just the fancy French term for the juices/gravy that the meat was cooked in. Nobody would ever be able to guess that the depth of flavor of this jus is thanks to dark beer. I promise that the final result tastes nothing like beer, so don't let that scare you away. As for the beef broth component of the jus, I use one of my favorite secret ingredients:
As if the Friends episode wasn't off-topic enough, allow me to go off on another brief tangent to share with you this favorite pantry staple of mine. I use this beef base all the time in gravies, sauces, soups, stews, beans, etc. If you've ever read the back of a jar of standard chicken or beef bouillon granules or cubes, you might be alarmed to find that its ingredients aren't exactly straightforward. So I was thrilled to find this substitute, the organic version of which contains only ingredients that I am actually able to spell and pronounce. One jar of this stuff goes a long way. I always keep jars of BTB chicken, beef, and vegetable base handy in my fridge (I believe they make a turkey flavor, too), and I use them regularly. However, it should be noted that, like bouillon granules or cubes, this bouillon paste is pretty salty, so I typically find that additional salt is unnecessary when I use it.
And now back to your regularly scheduled recipe…
The bottom line is that this recipe is quick and easy to throw together, and it receives rave reviews from every member of our household, from the baby to the picky preschooler to the grown-ups. So as life gets crazy once more with the beginning of a new school year, do yourself a favor and dust off the ole' crock pot. And when you do, be sure to try this recipe! You just can't beat coming home and having dinner waiting on you, especially when it's as mouthwatering as this one.
This succulent beef if slow cooked in a flavorful broth and served on toasty rolls with melted cheese and extra broth for dipping.
- 3 pound beef roast (such as a rump or top round)
- 1 (12 ounce) bottle of dark beer
- 2 cups water*
- 1 tablespoon beef flavored Better Than Bouillon*
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- French baguette, French rolls, hoagie rolls, or other crusty bread for serving
- Slices of provolone, Swiss or mozzarella cheese
- Trim excess fat off of roast and place in a large slow cooker. Add all of the remaining ingredients to the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or longer (the longer, the better).
- Split open your rolls (and spread with butter, if desired). Heat in a toaster oven until toasted or bake in a regular oven set to 350°F until warm and toasty (about 10 minutes).
- Slice meat across the grain and pile on top of toasted rolls. Place slices of cheese over the meat and put in the toaster oven or under the broiler for a couple of minutes until melted.
- Serve hot sandwich with a small bowl of reserved cooking juices (jus) for dipping.
Tips, Tricks, & Variations
I use Shiner Bock for my dark beer.
*You may substitute another type of bouillon for the Better Than Bouillon, but you may have to adjust the amount. Or if you have prepared beef broth, you may substitute that for the 2 cups water/1 tablespoon BTB combo.
I like to use fresh minced garlic in most recipes, but since crock pot recipes cook for so long, I find that jarred minced garlic (the kind that must be refrigerated) works great.
I try to flip my roast over halfway through the cooking time, but it's not necessary if you're not home.

Surgery of Fetus Reduces Spina Bifida Complications
Surgery of Fetus Reduces Spina Bifida Complications
The Management of Myelomeningocele Study (MOMS) is a study funded by the National Institutes of Health that was started in 2003 to compare prenatal surgery (surgery before birth) with postnatal surgery (surgery after birth) in children who had myelomeningocele (MMC), a form of Spina Bifida. Experimental studies had suggested that closing the opening on the back before a baby with MMC is born is associated with better neurological outcomes. Recently, some findings from the study were published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Click here for article (PDF)
Origins of the Study
Early studies done in animals seemed to confirm that the amount of nerve damage could be lessened if the open spine was closed early in a pregnancy. This led researchers to want to compare the safety and effectiveness of prenatal and postnatal surgery.
It was determined that the study would seek to enroll 200 women who were carrying a baby affected by myelomeningocele (MMC), the most severe form of Spina Bifida. The affected pregnancies would all be diagnosed with Spina Bifida by ultrasound between the 19th and 25th weeks. In 100 cases the opening in the spine would be closed between the beginning of the 19th and the end of the 25th week of pregnancy. In the other 100 cases, the baby would have surgery to close the opening in the spine after they are born. Participating women were not "selected" for one type of surgery or the other, but rather were to be randomly assigned to one of the groups.
Over 1,085 women were screened for participation and 299 were referred to one of the three study centers for further screening. Women could be excluded from the study for maternal, obstetric, or fetal reasons; the most common of which were maternal obesity, a prior history or risk factor indicators for pre-term birth, or severe spine curvature or other anomalies not associated with Spina Bifida in the fetus. Enrollment concluded at the end of 2010 with 183 women participating in the study.

In what seems to be a chase of a wild goose, Fox Odoi, the chairman of the Rules, Discipline and Privileges committee was given ten more days to conclude the investigations into the misconduct of hundreds of lawmakers during the November 27 deliberation on the Petroleum bill.
The investigations have been described by lawmakers as a "waste of taxpayers' money", with some calling on the Speaker, who ordered for the probe, to simply leave it and consider giving amnesty to the 239 lawmakers. The argument of lawmakers like Dr Francis Epetait (Ngorwa county) is that if the Odoi committee was to recommend the punishment for the misconduct of these lawmakers, then the speaker Rebecca Kadaga would be left with no quorum to conduct business. Parliament has 375 MPs.
"If action is taken, you will not have quorum. 239 MPs is a huge number, and it shows that the action was spontaneous and not deliberate. Madam Speaker, I ask that these members be given amnesty," Epetait said.
However, Kadaga, who granted the ten days' extension request by Fox Odoi, argued that she could decide on whether to grant amnesty or not because the committee had not compiled a comprehensive report over the matter. On November 27, MPs turned rowdy and refused to put to vote the proposal by President Museveni that clause 9 of the Petroleum Bill 2012, be recommitted before parliament so that the powers to grant, revoke license and negotiate oil deals be removed from the mandate of the Petroleum Authority to the minister of Energy.
So far sixteen witnesses have been interviewed by the Fox Odoi committee, and he has assured Parliament that in the next ten days, his probe would finish interfacing with the remaining 200 and more members that have been cited as potential witnesses. Interestingly, Odoi told Parliament that some of the members on his committee were witnesses--raising the possibility that he might lack quorum and signatures to make his report valid.

|Here's Daidalos Team's version 4.101 English/international update for IL-2 Sturmovik, intended to address most of the issues players have found in v4.10.
The TD 4.10 patch is a modification of the original IL2 series, AUTHORIZED by Oleg.
View more details...
Date: 01-24-2011
"First of all, thank you for your testing and bug reporting of patch 4.10. Even though we did not have enough time to respond to each individual post, we have been reading your reports and comments carefully. As we speak, we are in a process of internal testing of patch 4.101 Release Candidate which will address most of the issues you have found in 4.10.
One of the most commented features of 4.10 has been the 2s bomb arming delay. We have listened to your feedback and spent a lot of time and energy reviewing and discussing this feature inside our team. In 4.101 we have removed arming delay from ampoule loadouts only. In 4.11 - we will rework the arming delay for each individual bomb based on available historical references and within limitations of IL-2 code. Plus we will make this feature optional either via an existing or a new difficulty switch.
Now, we would like to take this opportunity and review with you publically the list of fixes which are already included in our latest 4.101 version. In case we have forgotten or overlooked a bug you have already reported, please remind us in this thread. Keep your reports 4.10 specific, please. No old bugs or "wish list" here.
Again, we want to say thank you to those who provided a constructive feedback to us on several IL-2 forums and/or our email address. We really appreciate it."
Daidalos Team. - http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=18367
Fixes already INCLUDED in 4.101 RC we are testing:
1. Problem with class compiling causes problems with online & check runtime.
2. Finding a free space for plane spawning on carrier deck is overloading dedicated server too much which can cause temporary warping. No problem for normal player hosting.

4. Saved Quick Mission Files from 4.09m do not work correctly anymore when they are loaded.
5. Destroyed ships are reported as bridges at the stats page.

8. Entries for "Countries" in the home base MDS screen are not loaded correctly when mission is opened in FMB. Saving after this erases the countries list.
9. In dogfight missions, clients are not able to ground spawn from the test runways. The old narrow transparent runway should stays as airspawn only, but the two new transparent should be ground spawnable.
10. Fulmar unable to take off from ground airfields because of wrong tail wheel rotation.
11. Bf-109 G-6 Mk 108 cannons don't work.
12. Bf-109 G-6 Finnish version cannot use the Wfr.Gr.21 rockets.
13. S-80 torpedo boat rear gun alignment is invalid.

15. Ju-88 with empty loadout causes exception.
16. AI planes on DF maps not flyable from external view.
17. Ju-88 A4-torp FM has dive brakes.

19. Spitfire Mk.IXc 1942 - when 2x250lb bombs loadout selected, only one (left-side) bomb is shown under wings in loadout screen and in game.
20. Do-217 (both version) are missing one clip from right wing, so wingtip goes through ground.
21. Ghost landing gears on Hs 129 when it gets ripped away.
22. Wrong amount of ammo in Bf-109F-4 2xMG151 pods.
23. CW-21 cockpit warning lights not functioning. Added lights for following functions (up to down in panel):

55. No default skin folders or void skins for new spits.
56. Erg_JG26 has invalid gruppe number 5.
57. Glidepath of AAF IAS should be finetuned better to match typical runway length. Now the landing following instrument precisely falls short.

59. Various spelling mistakes in CW-21 cockpit.
60. No prop pitch HUD printout when changing pitch for engines. When engine #1 & #2 pitch is mapped, only #2 shows the HUD text.
61. On the Ground Control page of the communications menu there is no customary blank line between the last option and the '0.Back' option.

79. D3A1 cockpit airspeed gauge shows wrong indications.
80. He-111 H-6 tail stinger changed to MG17.
81. Me-210 PaK40 changed to Bofors40.
82. Added: Ampoule loadouts have no arming delay and no safe jettison
Known issues that are fixed but didn't make it to the RC build:
- If user loads a mission in FMB which has AI planes assigned as recon planes, AI planes are not loaded into the list and next save causes them not to be saved.
- If player's side FoW spotter/radar gets destroyed, player might still see the icons on minimap as if the unit was still alive.

(PRWEB) January 25, 2013
Inovitech, formed in 2011 to innovate and streamline processes around the legal services market, is proud to announce the launch of its first cloud-computing product called ISOTASK. ISOTASK, a patent pending process, was developed to alleviate some of the bottlenecks that occur when managing eDiscovery projects across the entire EDRM reference model. Since the eDiscovery process is highly transactional in terms of scope and case needs, the goal was to create a system that incorporated the right amount of flexibility, ease of use, and features to support the overall process. ISOTASK is not just another tool to add to the eDiscovery project manager's tool box. It was designed to consolidate several steps into one, so project managers can spend more time consulting with clients, and less time performing menial tasks.
"I am pleased to offer a solution that is truly needed in our industry. I have worked in close collaboration with eDiscovery professionals and industry veterans over the last 1.5 years to derive at a solution that really addresses a problem. Most of the technology to assist eDiscovery professionals focuses more on the production of tasks, and not necessarily the management of them. I have seen first-hand the challenges eDiscovery project managers face on a daily basis and I wanted to truly help make their lives easier," said Debra Rozier, Founder, Inovitech.
"The software is intuitive and organized in a way that "thinks" like a project manager. We are confident that it will not only help us manage our projects more efficiently, especially with internal communication, but will also allow us to provide better customer service. That's the real value for us," said Michael Eck, Director of Client Services, AlphaLit.
Some of the key benefits of using ISOTASK include:
About Inovitech:
Inovitech, established since 2011, is a boutique solutions company based in the Washington, DC metro area, specializing in building cloud-computing business applications to support eDiscovery professionals.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Priorities USA Action and SEIU today doubled their efforts to educate voters about the "two-faces" of Mitt Romney and his unbelievably low 13.9 percent tax rate with new Spanish language radio ads in Florida and Nevada. Priorities USA Action launched a new ad in Tampa and Orlando, Florida and SEIU launched a new ad in Las Vegas and Reno, Nevada. The text of both ads is the same. The ads will launch today, February 1.
"Although Mitt Romney may walk away winning the Florida GOP primary, he can't walk back his support of treating immigrants so terribly that they are forced to self-deport," said SEIU Secretary-Treasurer Eliseo Medina. "He can't walk back his fondness of Kris Kobach, the godfather of anti-immigrant legislation like Arizona's SB 1070. He can't walk back the fact that as head of Bain Capital he fired thousands of workers. He can't walk back the fact that as a multimillionaire he pays less in taxes than the majority of hardworking Latinos. As he heads into states with more Latinos, his 'dos caras' with our community will become even more evident."
The ads highlight Romney's dramatically low tax rate. While accusing immigrants of coming to this country to look for handouts, Romney helped himself to a massive handout on the federal government's dime with a tax rate of 13.9 percent.
"Mitt Romney's 13.9 percent tax rate is the ultimate handout," said Paul Begala, senior adviser to Priorities USA Action. "To claim that immigrants come to America for a 'free deal' while paying a tax rate that is half of what hard working Americans pay is the height of hypocrisy. If Mitt truly cared about the best interests of the Hispanic community, he would advocate for a fair tax system and job-creating policies that benefit middle-class families, not just the wealthiest Americans."
In Florida and Nevada, we will remind voters of the two-faces of Mitt Romney: the candidate who is willing to say one thing in Spanish to Hispanic voters and something entirely different - and more sinister - in English to non-Hispanic voters.
"From his partnership with Kobach, to his economic policies that will harm Hispanic communities, Mitt Romney cannot hide from his record," said SEIU National Political Director Brandon Davis. "We intend to pound the pavement and cover the airwaves to remind voters of Romney's anti-immigrant and anti-working family record."
Although the SEIU-Priorities USA Action campaign is targeting Mitt Romney, no current GOP presidential candidate, including Newt Gingrich or Rick Santorum, is a viable alternative for Hispanic voters.
The ad can be heard on www.prioritiesusaaction.org/DosCaras and http://action.seiu.org/page/s/doscaras2
Florida "Dos Caras" Ad
Mitt Romney has no shame. He shows one face to the Hispanic community and another completely different one to everyone else.
On the one hand, Romney is a multimillionaire who pays an unfairly low tax rate. But on the other hand, he accuses hard working immigrants of being opportunistic, declaring that they're just here looking for handouts.
(Romney sound bite)
"...a lot of people just come here or come across the border that have no skill, no education, and are looking for, for a free deal."
Romney says he cares about our children, but time and time again he promises to veto the DREAM Act that would open educational opportunity for young Hispanics.
His Spanish-language ads say Romney "believes in us," but his deeds speak for themselves.
Let's not be fooled. He might have two faces, but we know all too well who the true Mitt Romney is.
Priorities USA Action paid for and is responsible for the content of this ad. Not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee. www.prioritiesusaaction.org.
Priorities USA Action is an Independent Expenditure PAC that supports candidates who will advance policies that provide the strongest and most sound outcomes for middle class families.
With 2.1 million members in Canada, the United States and Puerto Rico, SEIU is the fastest-growing union in the Americas. Focused on uniting workers in healthcare, public services and property services, SEIU members are winning better wages, healthcare and more secure jobs for our communities, while uniting their strength with their counterparts around the world to help ensure that workers--not just corporations and CEOs--benefit from today's global economy. www.seiu.org

Ka - "To Our Name"
(Grief Pedigree Vinyl; 2012)
Ka is one of the most effective earnest rappers I've ever heard. It almost sounds as if it physically pains him to even speak on his hustling stint in East New York. He has the ability to translate suffering and inner conflict in an engaging way, without ever establishing a legitimate connection with the listener. We probably learned more about the life and times of Raekwon from his verse on "C.R.E.A.M." than we did about Ka throughout the entirety of both Iron Works and Grief Pedigree. Still, it's difficult not to take a vested interest in his vague narratives. "To Our Name," the bonus track packaged with the vinyl formatted version of Grief Pedigree, picks right up where the record left off. It's good on first listen and remarkable by the twenty-sixth. The prospect of Ka collaborating with Roc Marciano for an entire full-length album is intriguing, if only to see whether they'll take the good-cop-bad-cop approach or compromise their individual styles.

An audit into the activities of the Market Operations (MO) department of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) in relation to adherence to guiding principles in the Multi Year Tariff Order (MYTO-1) electricity framework has shown that the MO consistently flouted existing rules of financial transactions in Nigeria's Electricity Supply Industry (NESI).
The audit, which was commissioned by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) and undertaken by KPMG Financial Services in 2010 discovered that apart from the MO's disregard for the market rules which applied to activities in the sector, it also ditched the practice of qualitative internal controls in all its dealings in the sector.
Commissioned to reconcile the accounts of the MO with that of other market participants to determine related liabilities in operations within the electricity value chain, the KPMG audit disclosed that market participants in NESI especially the MO had misapplied the MYTO-1 mechanisms in its management of finances in the sector right from its inception in 2008.
It discovered that over N200 billion worth of unpaid energy bills were owed various market participants as a result of such disregard to existing market rule by the MO.
This, according to the audit report, suggested a possible misappropriation of over N178 billion budgeted in 2008 as subsidies for electricity consumption by the Federal Government.
The report entitled; "Reconciliation of Market Operations' Account with Market Participants and Determination of Related Liabilities" was obtained by THISDAY recently in Abuja.
It partly reads: "In the Nigerian electricity market, only the market rules for the transitional and medium term stages of the Nigerian electricity power sector (Market Rules) specify the requirements of market settlement accounts. The market rules became effective as at 17 February 2010 and provides guidelines for the operation of market settlement accounts during the 'transitional' stage of the market. According to the market rules, this stage has not yet been reached.
However, Rule 6.2.2 (a) of the market rules, states that during the pre-transitional stage of the market, the Market Operator is required to "Commence application and implementation of the draft market rules to the extent that these rules apply during the transitional stage with a view to (i) enable it review feasibility, coordination, timing, metering problems or gaps; and (ii) draft such amendments as may be required to the draft rules".
This implies that the directives relating to the transitional stage of the market as contained in the draft market rules apply during the pre-transitional stage to the extent possible. Since the draft market rules became effective in February 2009, it implies that from July 2008 to January 2009, there were no rules guiding the operation of market settlement accounts."
"Nevertheless, MO does not fully comply with the limited guidelines provided by the market rules on the operation of market settlement accounts in the pre-transition stage," it added.
The report also made comments on MO's compliance with internal control mechanisms saying: "Responsibility for internal control lies with an entity's board. Thus, the TCN board is responsible for the quality of internal control within the MO department. However the TCN board is not operational. An ineffective governance structure over MO has resulted in PHCN CHQ (Power Holding Company of Nigeria Corporate Headquarter) directing MO to make payments which are not in line with the market settlement process.
For example, we noted transfers from MO clearing accounts to CHQ (backed by directives from CHQ) totalling N524 million over the period July 2008 to March 2010 that were not settlement statement related."
The audit report further stated that the MO's accounts that contain government subsidy funds do not comply with Section 734 (i) of the Federal Government Financial Regulations and Circular (TRY/A4&B4/2001/OAGF/PRS/005/III/85) issued by the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) and which states that government funds should not be placed in any commercial bank that would charge commission on transactions.
"The MO may be running market account contrary to required policies or guidelines, the market rules should be amended appropriately to reflect the most practical requirements for the upcoming transitional stages of the market, the available guidelines for subsidy disbursement are ambiguous and open to interpretation by users.
This is evident in the different approaches applied by MO in disbursing the two batches of subsidies released to date and without clearly documented processes, MO may employ its own methods in the disbursement of subsidy, which might not be in line with leading practices. The required subsidy disbursement process should be formally documented and approved by all relevant parties," it added.

What a pile of shit!!!! First the ref let's Hatton get away with murder against Tszyu, now this ref stops a fight in probably the worst stoppage in recent memory! He lands 2 OK shots then miss after miss after miss, what a crock of shit. Yea he could've and maybe still would've won but for christsake LET HIM. Those refs look for every chance to be sure their fighters come out on top and it's sickening already. Hey boxers that aren't from the UK DON'T GO THERE....HELLLLOOOOOO!?!?!?! Peter hit it on the head when he said "He threw pitty pat amateur punches, i covered up, and it was stopped premmaturely." End of story because that's exactly what happened. Kessler should knock this clown out. All his fast shots were pitty pat just like he said nothing but show. I'm so pissed right now because i was robbed of what could've been a good competitive fight. This aint nothing to do with me now hating the country or the people there, but when it comes to protecting their golden boy boxers (the two) they're the worst on earth. Oh and Hopkins and Taylor would pick him apart too, they're boxers not brawlers. WOW and Frank bitchass Warren just said they declined an offer from Kessler for a fight this summer......hmmmm wonder why?!?!?!?! His time is coming as soon as he accepts that fight.

Inspired by a traditional northern recipe, Matt Tebbutt prepares a rich, fragrant cheesecake
Method1. Preheat the oven to 170C/150C fan/Gas 3. Grease and line a 23cm springform cake tin.
2. For the base: melt the butter. Blitz the biscuits in a blender until they are the texture of crumbs. Stir together the butter and biscuits (melting and adding a little more butter if you feel the mixture is too dry). Press into the bottom of the cake tin in an even layer.
3. For the filling: soak the raisins in the rum with a little hot water while you get on with the rest of the recipe.
4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the Yorkshire curd with an electric hand whisk until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one by one, then add the sugar and mix well until incorporated.
5. Add the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla seeds and the zests of the lemon and orange and mix well, until there are no lumps. Fold in the soaked raisins then pour the filling into the prepared cake tin.
6. Bake the cheesecake in the centre of the oven for 45-60 minutes, or until golden on top and just firm in the middle.
For the base
- 50 g butter
- 175 g digestive or gingernut biscuits
For the filling
- 100 g raisins
- 2-3 tbsp rum
- 1 kg curd cheese, preferably Yorkshire
- 6 eggs
- 200 g caster sugar
- 50 g plain flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- 1 vanilla pod, seeds only
- 1 lemon, zest only
- 1 orange, zest only
Tips and suggestions
- Yorkshire curd should not be confused with cream cheese or cottage cheese. It is traditionally used in Yorkshire curd tarts and must be cooked before eating.

Selling an image and a lifestyle is branding. Harley probably does it better than anyone, but Ducati and BMW do it very well too. Honda makes pretty good bikes too, but they can't give away a new VFR1200 because none of us can describe who a Honda rider is. There are pages of posts about HD pirates, Aerostich-wearing BMW snobs, and Ducati owners hanging out in cafes dressed like Valentino Rossi, drinking espresso and chatting it up with models. We identify with the lifestyle and we buy into the program. Apple's average laptop sells for 30% more than the industry average, but they all do basically the same things with the same basic parts, but Sony never had a Steve Jobs or catchy new Coldplay song in their commercials.
I'm not a Harley guy, but I'm a sales and marketing guy, and when you can get people tattooing your brand all over their bodies it's something that has to be admired. It's literally branding personified.
I just wish most HD riders didn't ride like such twats.

September 10, 2014 // 12:30pm — 2:00pm
Why did a small number of European statesmen take the world into the seminal catastrophe of the Great War? The German Chancellor Otto Bismarck had warned in 1880 that "some damned foolish thing in the Balkans" might lead to a terrible war. The shots at Sarajevo did just that a hundred years ago.

The recent upsurge in violence in the West Bank and Gaza have brought the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to a new and dangerous level. Is this just another periodic escalation or have we reached a tipping point that could take the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to an even darker and dangerous place? Is the Fatah-Hamas unity deal dead?

He's a guy that I've heard of, but I don't really know a ton about. I remember watching a few of Clair's matches with Nickerson a few years ago when he was down at 125. He's another generally solid guy.
While looking at Smith I came across Sean Clair -do you know his story -he also beat Grey 10-2 and won nearly 30 matches his sophomore year then goes 12-12 ? And is listed a maybe starter for Eastern Michigan ? He has several impressive wins but when I went to Earl's site and he is listed as a 133 ? I went with Ortega . I am really worried about Grey -especially since you ignored him -can he hold 33 ?
Thanks for the tip Russ...all I'm really looking to do with this last one if fill a few gaps in the line up so I don't have anyone special in mind.
I'll give Smith a look.
Unless you have a super pick saved up-look at Kevin Smith from Buffalo-29-9 last year but was sick the day of the MAC and lost all 3 matches -2 against guys he had beaten -beat DeShazer 8-2 and is just a tough little guy from Mexico ,N.Y.. Ness killed him 15-1 but Hoch beat him 4-0 and Hump 9-5 .lost to Kubec 2-1 but hurt him and won 3-4 matches more in the Reno .
How do you say-team full of losers-- in Swahili ? My team is pretty lame .
Your last pick is up my friend...
I know I have your guys, but I'll let you do the honors in making the picks...
If you would be so kind as to explain the SUPPLEMENTAL draft -when it takes place and what happens -the IU guy[s] I might pick have their own quads against schools for the Handicapped -when does this S draft take place ?
I'm used to it by now. If I get really impatient I'll draft his dumb ass a 25 and let him trade him in for someone else if he doesn't want whoever I give him.
I may be the source of LoSt's bitchiness -he asked me to draft Bonano for him and I said I was keeping him -he already grabbed 2 of my picks. I had to PM and tell him I wasn't his monkey boy.
Steve Bonano -Hofstra and Austin Trotman 174 App State -if they are gone -Knox from Tennesee-157 or Mangrum 141 Oregon state . Hopefully just the first 2 .
Yes sir, go ahead.
can I just give you my next picks -I need to eat .
Done -what aree the chances of my drafting again tonight ?
Your turn again buddy.
Russ...your two picks are here.
I'm heading to McDonallds -I don't pick for 25 picks or so ....be back in 15 .
Yo Russ, you're up
Your show Russ...Grips just picked.

Goliath Bird-eating Spider
Northern South America
Rain forests, living in burrows in ground.
This goliath has 8 legs covered in a dark brown hair and at each leg joint the hairs lighten to almost white. The cephalothorax (head) and abdomen are dark brown covered in reddish hairs, which gives it a golden-blond appearance. The two fangs are large enough to break the skin of a human, although it is considered fairly harmless to humans. It has 8 eyes but does not see well.
This is a nocturnal spider that lives in deep burrows. They do not dig their own, but inhabit abandoned burrows dug by rodents and other small animals. These spiders do not form partnerships and are around other adult spiders only long enough to mate. It is a aggressive spider and when threatened, it has the ability to hiss loudly by rubbing the bristles on its legs together (called stridulation). They can also propel a cloud of hairs off their body at their attacker. These hairs are barbed and can cause severe discomfort and irritation.
Male entices the female out of her burrow and they mate at the entrance. Several days later she lays her eggs in a silken sack. She then stores the egg sack in her burrow and protects it with a tough layer of silk. After an incubation period of 2 - 3 months the eggs hatch, revealing more than 100 spiderlings. These babies only stay in the mother's burrow for their first few weeks, and then they move out to find a burrow of their own.
Interesting Facts:
The Goliath bird-eater was named during Victorian times when explorers in South America saw one eating a hummingbird.
Tarantula populations are under pressure from habitat destruction, whether in tropical rainforests or in deserts. Many suffer the effects of pesticides used to kill insect "pests" that they depend on for food.

Off West-End Announcements – 29 January 2010
Nancy Groves Theatergoer Reporter • London • 29 Jan 2010
Following an excellent close to 2009 with five star reviews for both Bedbound and Christie in Love, the Lion and the Unicorn begins 2010 with a new production of Woyzeck from 8-14 February. Resident company Giant Olive teams up with Theatre Mixte for George Büchner's searing tale of war, which was banned for more than 50 years after its first production in 1836. Alan Marni directs an eight-strong cast with Tommy O'Neill as the proletariat hero
Double Deborah at White Bear
A double bill of Deborah Levy plays opens at Kennington's White Bear Theatre next month courtesy of Papa C Productions. Clam and Honey/Baby (16 February – 7 March) are typically dark tales, showing the playwright at her strange and surreal best after work with the RSC, BBC and Royal Court. Director Nadia Papachronopoulou returns to the White Bear fresh from the success of her recent production of The Housewives of the 1950s at the same venue.
Neither One Nor The Other
And just down the road, the Oval House has announced its major March production to be Sarah Leaver's one woman show, Memoirs of a Hermaphrodite. The show is based on the real-life story of Herculine Barbin, raised in a 19th century French nunnery as a woman but forced to move to Paris when she falls in love with a girl and her true hermaphrodite identity is discovered. Leaver combines physical theatre with a new musical score from Jason Pegg. Running from 10-27 March.
Shenton's View of Kilburn
Mark Shenton was this week announced new associate producer at the Cock Tavern Theatre. Best known for his column in The Stage newspaper, Shenton will be joining the venue to work on the world premiere of Shrunk (18 May – 12 June), the second play from the pen of Charlotte Eilenberg, who won an Oliver and Critic's Circle Award for The Lucky Ones at Hampstead Theatre in 2002. A revival of Jon Fosse's Nightsongs opens at the Cock tomorrow evening (30 January).
And Finally
Less than a fortnight now until Hackney Empire goes dark. But chiming a note of optimism for the future, the venue's final show on 7 February will be the annual variety performance of Hackney's own Anna Fiorentini Theatre & Film School. This year's 150 performers have worked with Spring Awakening director Lucy Skilbeck, vocal coach Jay Henry and Peter Andre's choreographer Mark Short. Guest speaker on the night will be Coronation Street's Shobna Gulati.

As the start of class time draws near, Adjunct Assistant Professor of Communications, Felicia Shearer eyes her watch. She feels well prepared and excited to begin her lecture, ready to make the most out of every second of class time. Her contagious enthusiasm rubs off on her students as they prepare to engage themselves knee deep in mass communication theory at 9:30am.
"I really love teaching," said Shearer. "I see myself as energetic and passionate about getting students involved," she continues.
Shearer's teaching experience
Aside from the enthusiasm that she brings to the classroom, another reason for Shearer's success at motivating her students stems from her teaching experience. She has taught at Old Dominion University in Virginia, Shippensburg University, Harrisburg Area Community College (HACC), Hartford Community College in Connecticut, University of Rhode Island and the Community College of Baltimore County in Maryland.
This variety in institutions and student demographics allows Shearer to relate to a diverse population of students.
Although her relationship with her students thrives due to her teaching experience, she admits that her relationship with the institution could be more developed. As an adjunct instructor for Wilson since 2007, Shearer says that she has little involvement with campus activities.
"I sometimes do feel disconnected. I am inundated with work and physically do not have the time to attend campus events and serve on committees," explains Shearer. "It would be nice to have a real presence here, to have that sense of belonging."
In addition to her teaching commitments, Shearer is also dedicated to her family. She lives in Chambersburg, Pa. with her husband, their three sons and two dogs.
"Our priority is our family. We do movie nights and my boys play sports," said Shearer. "My husband is awesome. It is a hectic life with our schedules and he is great at supporting me."
Shearer would like to include Wilson College as part of her future plans. She wants to remain in Chambersburg to raise her children and hopes to continue teaching locally.
