Tark: Catching Up with the Legendary Coach
Congratulations to Jerry Tarkanian, the newest member of the Basketball Hall of Fame.
Former UNLV basketball coach Jerry Tarkanian died Wednesday, Feb. 11, 2015. This story was originally published in the the Fall 2010 issue of UNLV Magazine. Read the obituary and share your memories of #Tark with us in the comments section.
The trophies and photos from Jerry Tarkanian's 30-plus years of coaching sit off to the side in the family room of his home off Rancho and Alta drives. The focus is on the three scaled-down rocking chairs for the younger of his 11 grandkids. They all live within two miles of the two-story he has shared with his wife, Lois, since 1974. It hasn't changed much — with its wrought iron banisters and lava rock fireplace — and neither has Tark.
Sure, he's slowed by age — he is 80 now — but the Runnin' Rebels coach from 1973-1992 rattles off player names and moments from those glory days with ease.
There's the 1990 squad. Heading into that season, Tark expected them to be good. They had momentum after reaching the NCAA Tournament's Elite Eight the previous season. They returned all five starters in 1990, including future NBA players Stacey Augmon and Greg Anthony, and had signed junior college phenom Larry Johnson.
"You never know you'll win a national championship, but …" he says.
The rest of that sentence is easily filled in by anyone with even a passing knowledge of the Runnin' Rebels. On April 2, 1990, the Rebels routed Duke University's Blue Devils, 103-73, and set a championship record for widest margin of victory that still stands today.
Great as they were, Tark says, the '90 team wasn't the greatest Rebels team ever. That honor goes to the following year's team. He throws out some more stats: "Our closest game was 7 points (a 112-105 win at Arkansas; the Razorbacks were No. 2 in the country at the time), and we led that game by 23 late." And: "We played Michigan State that year (a 95-75 win), we went to Louisville (97-85). We played everybody."
But one potential opponent concerned Tark: "Duke was the one team I didn't want to play."
UNLV was 34-0 and on a 45-game win streak when they met Duke in an NCAA Tournament rematch at the 1991 Final Four in Indianapolis. The Blue Devils beat UNLV, 77-75, spoiling dreams of an undefeated, two-time national champion.
Tarkanian is reluctant to say where the '91 Rebels fall in history's rankings. The coach mentions North Carolina's 1982 squad with James Worthy, Sam Perkins, and a certain shooting guard who would go on to some success with the NBA's Chicago Bulls. Still, coach says of his '91 team, they "probably played better than any other team."
TARK LEFT UNLV at the end of the 1992 season. His battles with the NCAA already were well-publicized and dated back to his time at Long Beach State in the early '70s. Then, he felt the major institutions were treated different from up-and-coming small programs. "They had total immunity," he says. "I get older, but I still get upset when I really think about it."
Recent NCAA sanctions against schools such as Southern California have somewhat softened Tarkanian's views of the organization. "I really believe the NCAA is fairer today than it's ever been."
In 1995, Tarkanian took over head coaching duties at his alma mater, Fresno State, and led the Bulldogs until his retirement in 2002.
He returned to his Las Vegas home after the Fresno stint and remains active in the community. In 2005, UNLV named the Thomas & Mack Center's court for him. At this year's homecoming — 20 years after bringing the NCAA title to Las Vegas — he's being honored with the UNLV Alumni Association Silver State Award. It's the top award given to a nonalumnus for contributions to UNLV and the community.
He spends his summers in Del Mar, Calif., in north San Diego County, where he has a condominium. Most days he heads to the racetrack. But he's not much of a horseplayer, he says: "Even when a wise guy gives me a tip, I still lose."
He keeps in touch with his former players. Greg Anthony also will be recognized at this year's homecoming with the association's Alumnus of the Year Award. He is now a college basketball analyst with CBS, and he's featured Tarkanian as a guest on his radio show.
Tarkanian calls Anthony his toughest player. His leadership on the court was solidified when Anthony broke his jaw in a February 1990 game against Fresno State. He played the rest of that championship season with his jaw wired shut. "The doctor said he'd probably be able to play 12 minutes a game. Greg played 32 minutes."
After a successful NBA career, Johnson returned to UNLV and finished his bachelor's degree in social sciences in 2007. He now splits his time between Dallas and Las Vegas. He and Tark frequently have lunch.
It is suggested to Tarkanian that his friendship with another basketball personality would surprise some longtime Las Vegans. "Coach K and I have been friends for years," he says.
Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski has a radio show, on which Tarkanian is a frequent guest. "He's a great coach and a great guy. We talk about basketball all the time," Tark says. "I tell him, 'My guys were better guys than your Duke guys.'"
The UNLV program, Tarkanian likes to say, was based on loyalty.
BACK IN HIS RANCHO NEVADA ESTATES two-story, Tark spreads out the sports section at a small breakfast table off the kitchen. There's a story on the Runnin' Rebels prospects this season.
"I think he's done a heck of a job," Tark says of current coach Lon Kruger.
UNLV basketball has experienced something of a renaissance since Kruger arrived in 2004. The Rebels have made three trips to the NCAA Tournament, including a spot in the Sweet 16 in 2007 along with a 30-win season.
Kruger, for his part, is also appreciative of Tarkanian's legacy.
"Coach Tarkanian and his teams are at the heart of the tradition of UNLV basketball," Kruger says. "He means everything to the program. He took it to another level." In its 2008 "Prestige Rankings" of basketball programs since 1984-85, ESPN ranked UNLV No. 8. (Topping the list is Duke.) Kruger's current student-athletes weren't yet born when Tarkanian's teams were establishing UNLV's place on the national stage, but his legacy continues to attract top players to the university.
"The national reputation (for the men's basketball program) at that time was as good as any in the country. It (still) has a huge impact on recruiting efforts."

Slow and Sensual or Rough and Hardcore? (ladies)
OK I got a good one. This question is more general based as the situation will change things. But I wanted to know what kind of sex do you enjoy? Do... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
It really all depends. While in a relationship, a mix of the two would be nice depending on the mood. My ex never would go for the rough and hardcore so that part of our relationship kind of sucked. It was hard for me to get him to do ANYTHING out of the ordinary sweet lovemaking. It was nice, but still it lacked that animalistic lust you sometimes need. A few months after we broke up, I met this guy and we slept together twice. It was purely about the sex and it was a mixture of the two. At first it was slow and sensual, then rough and hardcore, then back to slow and sensual, with a good rough ending. The second time it was rough with a little sensual thrown in here and there. Now, I've only been with two guys, my ex and this other guy. I'd still say the other guy beats out my ex in that department any day. He can do both, while my ex couldn't. When my ex calls, I get annoyed, when this other guy calls, I get excited. Lol. Hope that answers your question =)
What Girls Said 7
First of all, did you see the scene in the Notebook where they first have sex? When Ryan Gosling has her up against the wall?Jesus... If I so much as meant a man that good looking with that much passion I'd freaking rip my clothes off like they were on fire and would never put them back on. That sex scene gets me hot just thinking about it...
Maybe you mean sex like 'Meet Joe Black' sex instead of 'Notebook' sex. I vote Notebook sex in that case.
For a one time deal...rough and exciting would be my choice... Long term better be mixed up though cause I have a short attention span. Not saying I'd ditch him cause he wasn't keeping my attention in bed (at least not at first) but mixing things up means you have a connection and want to keep it going.
It definitely goes with who your with and how long as well, For me, depends on my mood, if I just got home from a night out with the girls, I may feel pretty kinky for rough headboard sex but if its just a night home with my guy and we just watched the notebook, well I guess its notebook sex then!.:)
Probably 50 percent of the time I like the in between, not putting a hole through the headboard with my head but not "notebook" sex either.
About 45 percent of the time please put my head through the headboard, pull my hair and spank me. I am like this after spending the day fantasizing, after talking dirty, or when we are in a room full of a million people and we undress each other all night with our eyes. Also if we go two or more days without it then rock my world baby!
Every once in a while when I have had a bad day, when I am emotional, or when I am feeling extremely close to my man (more so than normal) I want him to slip in and out slow while he kisses me.

About POGO's Federal Contractor Misconduct Database (FCMD)
The government awards contracts to companies with histories of misconduct such as contract fraud and environmental, ethics, and labor violations. In the absence of a centralized federal database listing instances of misconduct, the Project On Government Oversight (POGO) is providing such data. We believe that it will lead to improved contracting decisions and public access to information about how the government spends hundreds of billions of taxpayer money each year on goods and services. Report an instance of misconduct »
Withholding 2008 LOGCAP Award Fees
Date: 02/23/2010 (Date of 8-K)
Misconduct Type: Poor Contract Performance
Enforcement Agency: Defense – Army
Contracting Party: Defense - Army
Court Type: N/A
Amount: $20,000,000

Synopsis: KBR reported that the U.S. Army's LOGCAP Program Award Fee Government Determining Official notified the company that it will not receive any award fees for Task Orders 139 (dining facilities, laundry and other support services) and 151 (support services at Chief of Mission sites and U.S. Embassy-Iraq) for the period January 1, 2008 through April 30, 2008. KBR estimated it had accrued approximately $20 million in award fees during that period. According to the Associated Press, which received a statement about the matter from the Army Sustainment Command, KBR "failed to meet a level deserving of an award fee payment for work it did during the first four months of 2008."

Another case for HIIT
I am currently reading "Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers" by the noted stress psychologist Dr. Robert Sapolsky, Ph. D. I came across this quote that seems to be just another good case for HIIT vs. long distance running...maybe I am taking it a bit out of context but I feel it still applies:
"This brings up a broader issue important to our era of lookin' good. Obviously, if you don't exercise at all, it is not good for you. Exercise improves your health. And a lot of exercise improves your health a lot. But that doesn't mean that insanely large amounts of exercise are insanely good for your body. At some point, too much begins to damage various physiological systems. Everything in physiology follows the rules that too much can be as bad as too little. There are optimal points of allostatic balance. For example, while a moderate amount of exercise generally increases bone mass, thirty-year-old athletes who run 40 to 50 miles per week can wind up with decalcified bones, decreased bone mass, increased risk of stress fractures and scoliosis (sideways curvature of the spine) -- their skeletons look like those of seventy-year-olds."
Its something I never really thought of before -- but the increased stress of 40-50 mile runs is downright degrading to the body. It does have proven effects especially in older populations.
If the goal is not to be elite, just to be fit, I think this is another good argument for HIIT vs. ET. HIIT can give you many of the benefits of long distance endurance training (plus some other good benefits) without the negative effects. This means one can run 12-20 MPW at most and not have to worry about the problems associated with severely long run times and thousands of impacts onto the joints from each stride.

All our dear friends, our dear sweet mother passed away March 29, 2014, at her home.
Mother was a friend to us and she was always there to take care of us no matter what. She loved life, she loved her family, she loved everyone, she loved her church, her church family and she loved God!
Martina Myers Barnes was 86 years young. She was a native of Elizabethton, Tennessee. She graduated from Elizabethton High School in the class of 1947. She enjoyed so much her high school years and often spoke of her life long class mates. Mom would tell us kids about being in the high school band and school plays. She was famous for her portrayal of "Carmen Maranda!"
After graduation she married James F. Barnes on July 3, 1947, and moved to the family farm in Gray, TN. Mom loved the country and loved her new family. She would tell us again and again how they taught her so many things, and mom used the same pattern: Work hard, play hard, and go to church.
As her family grew she did to. Mom was active in her community and her church. She served on several committees, PTA (Parent Teacher Association) officer at Gray Elementary and district. She helped and volunteered with scouts, Ruritan and Appalachian Fair.
In her church she was a Sunday School teacher, leader in Nancy Jones Circle, United Methodist Women, Young Adult and Older Adult ministry. She loved her Sunday School class "Mary & Martha's" where she shared meaningful messages of her belief and faith. She loved to sing and be a part of the church choir; loved her "Lively Ladies" group, they shared so many good times. When the church started making apple butter she joined right in the "Apple Butter Gang!"
For all fund raising events at church or community, Mom would make her famous "Chess Pie" to be auctioned and they would go for a good price. Mom loved to entertain at these events with her loving and gracious personality where she would do the "Jitter Bug."
In 1947, she ran for "Republican State Executive Committee Woman"; was employed at ITT North Electric for several years.
She was truly a remarkable devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, mother-in-law, sister, teacher, entertainer and a godly woman that will be missed very much. Rest in peace our dear mother.
Becky, Frank and Jeff
She was preceded in death by her husband, James F. Barnes; her parents, Maggie and Chester Myers; her brothers, Jimmy and Kenneth Myers; her son-in-law, Laddie R. Olterman.
She had three children: Daughter, Rebecca Barnes Olterman, of Gray; Son, James F. Barnes (Frank) and daughter-in-law, Donna, of Gray; Son, Jeffrey L. Barnes and daughter-in-law, Eglee, of Coral Spring, FL; Grandchildren: Brandon Barnes and wife, Donna, of Sulphur Springs, Nicolette Barnes, of Coral Springs, FL, Anothy Barnes and wife, Kaylee, of Baltimore, MD, Vanessa Barnes, of Starkville, Mississippi, Stacy Newton and wife, Natalie, of Sulphur Springs, Scott Newton and wife, Heather, of Bowmantown; Great Grandchildren: Olivia Barnes, Bo Newton, Saylie Newton, Ashlyn Newton, Nicollette Newton, Nicholas Roma, Isabella Roma; Sisters-in-law, Betty Myers and Irma Lucas, June Barnes; Sister & Brother-in-law, Marjean and Tom Alexander; several nieces and nephews.
A special thank you to Cheryl Humphrey, mom's caregiver, and Caris Hospice.
Celebration of Life has been scheduled at Gray United Methodist Church, Thursday, April 3rd, with visitation between 2:00-4:00 PM and 5:00-7:00 PM with service at 7:00 PM by Pastor Lloyd Jones.
Burial will be Friday, April 4, 2014, at 11:30 AM at Gray Community Cemetery. Pallbearers will be family and friends.
In lieu of flowers donations to Gray United Methodist Church, 2108 Oak Street, Johnson City, TN 37615 will be appreciated.
Condolences may be sent to the Barnes family online at www.dillow-taylor.com.
Dillow-Taylor Funeral Home & Cremation Services, Jonesborough, 423-753-3821

Did You Make This Advent Wreath or Was It Given to You?
We purchased this Advent Wreath (our first) from Cotter Church Supply in Los Angeles, CA. The cost was ~$11.00.
How Do You Use the Advent Wreath?
We light the candles of our Advent Wreath every night during Advent before we eat dinner. We say our Grace Before Meals prayer and then enjoy our dinner with the candles lit until the end of our meal. Lighting these candles before dinner serves as a nice reminder for us that we are in the Advent season.
Tips and Tricks
- We purchased this Advent Wreath but plan to make our own wreath next year. We already started assembling the supplies!

Tom Ford Pure Pink Lip Color Review, Photos, Swatches
Tom Ford Pure Pink Lipstick
Tom Ford for Lipstick — Test #2
Tom Ford Pure Pink Lip Color ($45.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a tantalizingly bright fuchsia pink with a satin-matte finish. It might have the most subtle dusting of shimmer in it, but it's really hard to make a clear distinction. It's almost like shimmer dust–maybe even fairy dust, since I'm not entirely sold that I'm not just seeing things… The pigmentation is excellent with full-color coverage in one to two layers (depending on your application technique).
Tom Ford's Private Blend Lip Color collection are all vanilla scented and come in a white and gold square tube. It's a very clean and elegant look, and the tube itself is weighty, so it feels more luxurious when you hold it in your hand. I like that the usage of the white paneling means no fingerprints, since that is a common problem when brands use more metallic/metal kind of packaging. The top and bottom are both "gold," with the top having "Tom Ford" imprinted on it. It does click shut and stay closed well.
The formula itself is creamy and lightweight–it doesn't feel slippery or nearly as creamy as YSL Rouge Voluptes, nor does it glide on as smoothly and effortlessly as Guerlain Rouge Gs. Tom Ford's color range is full with twelve different shades ranging from nudes to deep plums. The textures of Tom Ford's lipsticks are semi-matte–they're not shimmery at all–and so they have a smidgen of sheen/glisten but overall, a much flatter finish.
This shade wears very, very well, particularly because it's a much darker/deeper shade than Pink Dusk. The majority of the color lasts four to five hours, but a fuchsia stain persists for a couple more after that. I like that it's long-wearing without feeling drying. With Pure Pink, it is more of a blue-based pink, so it suits those with cooler complexions best, but if you have a warmer complexion, I still think it would work.

Brutally Honest: Moments That Make You Shake Your Head
by No_Name on
Don't you just hate that?
The biggest shake my head moment in comics definitely goes to Power Girl's appearance in JSA Classified #2. Unfortunately, not even Amanda Conner's incredible art could make this moment easier for me as a fan to accept. In that issue, Power Girl explains to Superman the meaning behind the lack of insignia on her uniform. Her reason being that she simply could not think of anything. Really? She couldn't think of a symbol so she just put a giant hole there? How absolutely and utterly disappointing. Not to mention the way that she compares herself to Superman just totally turned me off as a reader.
More recently, however, was the appearance of Wonder Woman in issue #708 of Superman.
While I can't take any credit for being the first person to notice this particular panel ( I can thank Sue for pointing that out to me), I can't say I wasn't equally as disappointed as so many other readers. If you have been reading Wonder Woman, then you know that the character has not only seemed to have misplaced her costume- but her identity as well.
Much like Superman in his current series, both founders of the Justice League seem to be a little lost in their own ongoing books. Superman has been trekking across the United States from city to city in search of himself, and Wonder Woman has been on her own journey of self discovery and understanding, looking for clues about who she is. Decked out in a new costume and without any knowledge of the woman she used to be- Wonder Woman has a whole new identity. In this particular scene, Wonder Woman encounters Superman and tells him that while her sisters have taught her how to be a warrior, that by watching him, Superman has taught her how to be a hero. Okay, given that this is a completely new take on a Wonder Woman with a new identity, I can almost understand where she is coming from. Almost.
In a recent issue of Wonder Woman, she did everything she could to save an innocent boy and his single Mother, without Superman's help- that alone is pretty heroic to me. But putting that fact aside for just a moment, let's look at the panel itself. This incredibly important appearance is vital to Wonder Woman's self discovery and her journey of uncovering her own identity- and like someone pointed out, it happened in Superman's book. She couldn't even realize that she wants to be a hero in her own book.
Finally, why Superman? Lately, Superman seems just as lost as Wonder Woman, so of all heroes to choose from, why look to him and have this epiphany? Wonder Woman is supposed to be this extremely powerful character (both emotionally and physically) so it was rather disappointing to me that she had to look to Superman in order to validate herself. In that sense, this moment which was supposed to have been crucial to her own character development was used as a plot device to propel Superman's character- thus throwing Wonder Woman even further into limbo. What a bummer for Wonder Woman fans, and I am supposed to look up to her as a character, right? And it isn't as though there aren't a plethora of strong female characters that are fully grounded in their identities and aren't completely self aware, either. Look at Oracle, Donna Troy or Power Girl? All of these characters have proven (particularly recently) that they are exceptional role models. I guess it would have been great as a female reader to see the most iconic female character influenced and inspired by another Woman.
Enough of my rant, though, what moments in comics have made you just shake your head?

At the moment there is no removable storage encryption product with PGP. Symanted Endpoint Encryption have a "Standalone" encryption product that allows you to encrypt an entire removable device without the need to have SEE at the other end.
The solution for PGP will be to use PGP Zip and unzip the encrypted files when you get home, but you will not be able to re-encrypt them

how to fire up the grill
Instant-light briquettes are not a good idea. Neither are briquettes doused with lighter fluid. Although it will be safe to eat, the food you cook over fuel-started briquettes can pick up a chemical taste. Instant-light briquettes are made from pulverized charcoal and mixed with additives to make them easy to light and to keep burning. Hardwood charcoal, or charwood, lights faster and burns hotter and cleaner than briquettes. That means whatever you cook over it tastes better, too.
The easiest (and healthiest) way to ignite a fire is with a chimney starter―a large can open at both the top and the bottom. A wad of newspaper is packed into the bottom; a grill-load of charcoal goes on top. Put one match to the paper and in about 15 to 20 minutes you're ready to cook. The can, available at hardware stores, has a sturdy handle that makes it easy to pour the ash-covered coals into the grill.

Just a month ago, Spain stood atop the soccer world.
Real Madrid had defeated Atletico Madrid for the Champions League title, one of the sport's most prestigious prizes after the World Cup. The fact two Madrid clubs reached the finale reinforced the notion that Spanish football reigned supreme.
Today, Spain lies in a crumpled heap after becoming the fifth defending champion to get bounced in World Cup group play.
That's a lightning-fast elevator drop to the bottom floor for the dethroned soccer kings.
It wasn't so much that Spain lost its opening two Group B games in Brazil. It's how it unfolded. Spain was a muddled mess in a 2-0 defeat Wednesday to determined Chile at the famous Maracana in Rio de Janeiro. The performance came after a disastrous 5-1 shocker to the Netherlands a week ago.
Spain didn't regroup. It reverted to a time of failed expectations. Now an overhaul is needed for the first team to win three consecutive major tournaments — the 2008 European Championships, 2010 World Cup and 2012 Euros.
Take nothing away from the Golden Generation of Spanish football. Spain hadn't enjoyed that much success since investing in Columbus' voyage across the Atlantic.
But soccer runs in cycles — all sports do. Four years ago, Spain's mesmerizing tika taka passing style was sublime. Wednesday, Chile's pressing proved so disruptive that it was difficult to tell who was FIFA's top-ranked team.
Last month, seven Spanish players competed in the Champions League showdown between Madrid clubs, including key members Iker Casillas, Sergio Ramos, Xabi Alonso, David Villa and Diego Costa.
Portugal, which faces the United States on Sunday in another possible elimination game, had three stars play for Real Madrid: Cristiano Ronaldo and defenders Pepe and Fabio Coentrao. Pepe is out with a red card while Coentrao is out for the rest of tournament after suffering an injury against Germany. Also, Ronaldo has been bothered by a knee injury since the end of the La Liga season.
I asked ESPN analyst Taylor Twellman if it were too much to ask these aging players to appear in the Champions League final three weeks before the World Cup.
"No doubt the Champions League wore out some big players," said Twellman, formerly a Major League Soccer star. "You can't not say there are too many games being played and there wasn't a long enough break from the Champions League and some of these high-quality teams."
That said, Twellman had other observations.
"Look, they've won three major tournaments in a row," he said of Spain. "If they were going to make a run at it, it would be epic. They're still arguably part of the best generation of national team. It's happened too soon."
Indeed, it has.
Adios, amigos.

A CONTOURED car deck could cut the risk of a "roll-on roll-off" ferry capsizing, according to researchers at the University of Strathclyde. Their new design has just won a Royal Institution of Naval Architects competition on making ships safer.
Ro-ro ferries are very successful commercially and there are now about 5000 of them worldwide. Most have an unobstructed car deck running the length and breadth of the ship not far above the water line.
If water gets onto the deck, the ship can quickly become unstable and flip over. In 1987, off the Belgian port of Zeebrugge, water began flooding through open bow doors on the British car ferry Herald of Free Enterprise. It turned over 90 seconds later, and 193 people died.
Despite the introduction of tougher safety standards, the Baltic ferry Estonia capsized in 1994 after water reached the car deck during a storm, killing nearly 900 people. ...

anny from San Francisco bay area, CA reviewed the The Dordogne Marble-Topped Console Table
Bottomline: Yes, would recommend to a friend.
Comments: The product looked elegent. However, during the assembly, the art work is not best, and some of the joints between each connections did not match exactly, so you need to make some effort to get it done. No assembly drawings are available, and you have to use your knowlege and guess what to do. Although the assembly is not that hard, it is still better to have a drawing for your reference.

WebStorm 4.0 in Harmony with ECMAScript
ECMAScript Harmony Support
For those who prefer to stay one step ahead, WebStorm presents experimental support of a new ongoing ECMAScript version code-named Harmony. To try out new features, set ECMAScript Harmony to be the JavaScript language version in the IDE settings.
Note: each JavaScript engine implementation adds some nice features that others don't have. When you use a language feature that isn't supported by the currently selected JavaScript version, WebStorm will notify you and suggest a Quick-Fix:
HTML5 Boilerplate and other Web Application Templates
When you're creating a new project, it makes sense to begin with an appropriate starting template. WebStorm offers some well-known project templates to use depending on your needs:
- client-side — HTML5 Boilerplate, Twitter Bootstrap and Kickstrap
- server-side — Node.js Express application wizard.
Just select the project type via File | New Project...
Code Coverage in JavaScript Unit Testing
Code coverage for unit testing provides a clear picture of which parts of your code remain untested. From now on, users of JsTestDriver can measure code coverage visually.
The IDE shows which lines were exercised by your unittests, and which weren't. Look for the colored bar to the left of the source lines (green means performed, while red means omitted):
You can also see test coverage statistics by file and by directory in your Project View:
Easier JavaScript Library Scope Configuration
The main benefit of specifying JavaScript libraries in your project is to populate a completion list only with relevant members. We have reorganized the configuration panel at Settings|JavaScript|Libraries, so it becomes easier to use.
Smarter JavaScript Completion
More relevant suggestions now appear at the top of the list in many cases.
- Suggested names are ordered by their definition scope nesting, i.e. global variables are placed at the bottom of the list.
- Object members are ordered by class inheritance.
- If a local variable exists with the same name as the parameter of the called function, that variable is considered the most relevant.
Custom Code Folding Regions
This feature gives you a possibility to define your own code-folding regions with special line comments.

Hockey Pick: Washington Capitals @ New Jersey Devils 11/11/11
- Updated: November 10, 2011
Two of the contending teams in the Eastern Conference lock horns in the Garden State on Friday night, where the Washington Capitals will pay a visit to the New Jersey Devils.
Though Washington has played two fewer games than the Tampa Bay Lightning, the two squads have the same point total with 18, and it is clear that the Caps have the stronger of the two teams at this moment. They have scored 50 goals, the second most in the NHL this year and just behind the Philadelphia Flyers for the most goals per game in the league, and they just have star power that most teams cannot compete with. Nicklas Backstrom already has a whopping 19 points on the campaign, and Alexander Ovechkin, always a threat for a 100+ point season, has six goals and seven assists. Six players have five or more assists and six have four or more goals. To put that in perspective, the 29 goals that the top six goal scorers on this team have accounted for are more than the entire New York Islanders team has all season long to date. There is a flaw in this team though, and it is in its road form at just 3-3-0. There haven't been a ton of tests as visitors this year for Washington, and it definitely could be in a tad bit of trouble in this one if the Devils bring their 'A' game.
Are the Devils finally playoff material once again this year? At least for right now they aren't, but just like with Washington, they have a couple games in hand in which they can do some real damage. This is a big stretch of games coming up though, as the next five are against the Caps twice, the Boston Bruins, Buffalo Sabres, and Tampa Bay Lightning. This is the only one of the games that will be played at home, and after this one, 10 of the next 12 are on the road. It's early in the season to be saying that this is a make or break stretch, but if the team only yields say, six or seven points from these 13 games, as the club found out last year, it may have built itself a hole that is just too deep to get out of when push comes to shove. But for now, we'll look at the positives. A three game losing streak with no points to show for it was ended last Thursday with a 4-3 shootout win over the Philadelphia Flyers on the road, a win that sparked a three game winning streak. The Devils haven't won a game at home by more than a goal since October 10th though, one of just two multi-goal victories of the entire season by multiple goals.
Washington Capitals @ New Jersey Devils Pick: In the end, we know the importance of this game for these two teams. The Caps really need some mojo on the road, but the Devils need to snare as many points as they can from this horrendous schedule ahead. Back the hosts, particularly as the short underdogs that they will likely be.

Hello and welcome to a place where we can talk about what matters to you. Zip Xpress people will share some stories with you in this blog about the complex and fast-paced world of the transportation supply chain. We will try to keep things simple and straightforward whenever possible, because straight answers sometimes are hard to find in all the alphabet soup of industry abbreviations, acronyms and regulations.
Let's get started with a sampler of some "Zip Xpress Messages" about this business and what we're doing to modernize and appropriately scale shipping services to our customers.
The following is a selection of comments that company President Mike Dargis has published recently in a nationally distributed supply-chain publication:
On helping a company with its shipping costs:
"All of us, all the way up and down the line, are refusing to see that we're sucking dollars right out of our customer's pocket. How does it help anyone to ask some business to cough up $8,000 or so for a couple of high-value skids on an otherwise empty trailer? If we can help businesses with their profitability by fixing our shipping practices … why the heck don't we? How does it save my drivers' jobs to slowly bankrupt some small business or damage the bottom line of a bigger one?"
On "dead air" (and we're not talking about silence on a radio here!):
"A growing number of customers large and small are confused about the inefficiencies they see among haulers. The customers wonder why they are paying to ship so much dead air along with their precious cargo. Aren't there better options out there for incorporating loads to save the customer money? We should learn to save the obviously wasted fuel of trailerloads so under-optimized that they echo with empty space inside."
On shipping with a sustainability mindset:
"The sustainability model of shipping options employed by Midwest-based Zip Xpress and its sister company Green Transportation Inc. is answering some big questions about waste, optimization, and customer care. Originating from its Michigan base, the company offers hauling options to most of the U.S. and western Canada, and a Zip Xpress West is opening soon in California to serve customers targeting the Midwest and eastern Canada."

Message from Dean Rebecca Lytle
Our faculty share a common purpose: the success of each one of our students. Bringing deep expertise in their chosen fields, they are committed to sharing that knowledge in ways that will facilitate your learning. Their standards are high because they know that your aspirations are equally high. They will measure your success not only in terms of a program that will carry you through to a degree, but a career well beyond.
We know that the best learning takes place where the following conditions are present: an environment that supports and encourages you to explore; a challenge that helps you to develop and meet your own expectations; and an opportunity that allows you to practice the very skills you will use in the future. And there is a bonus to all of this – you will learn how to learn. That is a skill you will use throughout your lifetime.
Ask any one of our faculty members what brought them to Keene State College, and they will gladly share with you a unique story of how they were inspired to teach by those who taught them. Many are the first in their families to attend college. Others will describe a journey that includes advanced learning, real world experience, ongoing research, collaborative projects with other working professionals, and years of service to the community.
Bring your interest, your unique gifts, your perseverance, and your willingness to immerse yourself in your studies. We will match it.
When students ask us, "Why Keene State?" we tell them about some of the programs they won't find at other schools. That's when the excitement happens!
Our program in architecture is the only BS degree major at a public liberal arts college in New England! We place special emphasis on sustainable design, problem-solving, and a collaborative work environment. This pre-professional four-year program will prepare you for graduate study or work in the field. In these videos, two of our recent graduates talk about their experience in the program and how it made a difference for them. More about Architecture
Sustainable Product Design and Innovation
Class of 2013
"I am one of those people who likes to take everything apart," laughed Kyle English, a recent graduate of the Sustainable Product Design and Innovation program at Keene State College. Through the SPDI program, Kyle found an opportunity to design and build and to play a part in every phase of the process. His final project was an ergonomic laptop stand that eliminated two of the most common ailments associated with the frequent use of laptop computers: carpal tunnel syndrome and toasted leg syndrome. "I have this problem. I've gone through three or four of the generic laptop rests. So I knew I needed to find the solution."
How are new consumer products designed? KSC's program approaches the artistic, scientific, and technical aspects from a viewpoint that values sustainability and sound business practices. Hands-on, project-based learning gives students the tools and experience for jobs in this fast-moving environment. More about Sustainable Product Design and Innovation

Educator Preparation
The Marlborough School and Keene State College have been working together for over three years to create a pilot program for a partnership that benefits the children of Marlborough and college students in the elementary teacher education program at Keene State College.
"Enter to learn, go forth to serve", the Keene State College motto since 1909, exemplifies our educator preparation programs. Not only do our students embody this motto through their work, they also discover ways to support their future students to do the same.
Each educator preparation program's curriculum is designed to meet both national and state standards, and is grounded in the KSC Teacher Education Conceptual Framework.
Students engage in thoughtfully designed and incrementally challenging learning opportunities in field experiences and clinical practice.

Possessive Humping?Posted by: Lindsay
Category: Behavior Problems
Posted on: November 07, 2002 at 12:38:37
My 8 month old neutered male JRT, Magnus, is displaying a curious behavior. I've read other posts on humping and that it is a dominance behavior. Magnus does it in only one situation. I am a student/housewife so I am home a lot of the time, my husband works full time (and sometimes a lot of OT). Everyday when my husband comes home, I greet him at the door and give him a big hug. Whenever we are hugging, Magnus begins humping my leg very aggressively. He wraps his front legs around my leg in a puppy-death-grip and has now started holding on to my jeans with his mouth, making it hard for me to get him to let go. As so soon as hubby stops hugging me, Magnus stops humping me. If I tell Magnus NO, he'll stop and stare at me with those sad JR eyes. He only does this humping when my husband hugs me. So is this still a dominace behavior or is he being possessive? Magnus gets along with my husband well (and everyone else) with no problems, but he is very attached to me.

Newly released Columbus police data shows there have been 12 officer-involved shootings so far this year, as compared with 20 in all of last year. Suspects were killed in four of the shootings, including two this past weekend. Police and city officials say the number of officer-involved shootings will drop when stronger gun laws are in place.

TYPE: Turtle, Boss.
TURF: Space.
AFFILIATIONS: Koopa Troop.
CLOSE RELATIVES: Magikoopa, Kammy Koopa, Kamek.
SKILLS AND ATTACKS: Fire Blast, Shell Blast, Summon Magikoopas, Disappear.
STRENGTHS: Moves around a lot.
WEAKNESSES: Koopa shells.
Bowser ordered Kamella to guard Stars in the Space Junk Galaxy and Deep Dark Galaxy. After being defeated by Mario by air and by sea, she quit and devoted her time to fixing the Galaxies with her magic.
Kamella is possibly related to Kammy From Paper Mario. Both wear purple robes.
Does maniacal laughter count?
Games: SMG
Offence: 1 or 2
Defence: 0
Speed: fairly fast
Items: A power star.
Attack Pattern: Like most SMG bosses, she has 3 parts to her battle. At first, she lingers of the side of the airship and shoots fire and koopa shells. 2nd stage the only difference is she's on the airship. 3rd stage is the same as the first, but with the addition of 2 magikoopas for that little boost of annoyance to get you to push yourself.
Basic Strategies: When you see a Shell, star spin next to it. It will automatically go into your hands. Then throw.
Advanced Strategies: Low on health? Never fear! "?" block is here! smash it and coins will fall out!
As with all of bowsers high ranking officials, her name references the japanese name for magikoopa: Kamek. Here, her name is a portmanteau of Kamek and -ella, a feminine suffex for names. As if her green lipstick didn't give THAT away.

I'm often asked whether current students, especially first-year students should read CliffsNotes Graduation Debt. The answer is always yes. The book begins with a story of how I borrowed and didn't worry about the money piling up until after graduation. Many of my friends never worried about student loan debt until it was time to repay them. Thus, every dollar of student loan refund checks, the amount leftover after tuition and fees, was always spent. I would have had thousands less in student loan debt if I had thought about money borrowed while I was still in college.
A friend of mine saved $900 by comparing auto and home insurance rates. You may not be able to save quite this much, especially if you don't drive. But you might have rental insurance. Compare rates of five companies on the insurance you do have. Choose companies that have low complaint ratios on your state's department of insurance website. If you save just $25 per month, that's a nice dent in your student loan payment.

This week's Ranji final at Hyderabad will be played in the shadow of India's tour of New Zealand. But as Chinmay Brahme finds out, for four Maharashtra players, the game against Karnataka could be their defining moment — the summit of their otherwise plateauing careers
Irfani cafe boy turns the corner
Samad Fallah, 28
Even for the self-confessed, attention-seeker Samad Fallah, the past few days have been a bit too much.
On Thursday, Fallah was the centre of attention as a TV crew followed him for an entire day. Fallah, with 201 first-class scalps in 50 matches, says that after a while the constant glare was a little embarrassing.
The day culminated with Fallah, decked up in a sharp suit —diamond studs glinting viciously in his ears — being interviewed on prime-time, an experience he calls 'five star'.
Fallah's 31 wickets have been the driving force for Maharashtra this season. Ever since Fallah, who has Iranian parentage, made his debut for Maharashtra in the 2007-08 season, he has been the lynchpin of their bowling attack. He hasn't picked less than 25 wickets over seven seasons he's played, but he says Maharashtra's run to the final has suddenly seen a lot of people sit up and take notice. As he whips off his sunglasses and makes himself comfortable at the cafe his father owns, a glass of steaming tea in his hand, Fallah says recognition might be at his doorstep.
"It wasn't as if I was not performing before this season. Midway through this season I had accepted that this time I was not even going to reach 20 wickets. However, since then, fate's had something completely different in store for me. Now, I am going to play the biggest match of my career. A good performance might just make up for all the recognition at a higher level that has passed me by," he says.
Much has been written and said about Fallah's eccentric bowling where he does not mark his run-up, often putting to use his tennis ball cricket skills. Though he has 200 wickets, Fallah says that he has often heard snide comments about how he is not a very pleasing bowler to look at. "My head falls away from my body when I deliver the ball. I don't bowl at express pace and they say I can't field but at the end of the day I get wickets. Shouldn't that be enough? I guess, Maharashtra and my own performance in the quarters and the semis answered a lot of questions," he says.
Picking up all 10 wickets in an innings during a district match got Fallah a place in the Maharashtra Ranji squad back in 2007. A self-confessed drifter before that, Fallah once ran away from a Maharashtra Under-22 camp, saying he just didn't feel like sticking around. After that, for two years he handled the cashier's desk at his father's restaurant before the fateful day when a few friends came and forced …continued »

Senior writer Kat Cornetta and myself both had the opportunity to take in a couple of game of the USA Collegiate National Team's tour throughout New England last week. On Saturday night, we made the trip to Holyoke, Massachusetts to see the Holyoke Blue Sox take on the USA squad but the weather would not agree with us as only one pitch was thrown before the skies opened up. On Sunday evening, the National team made the trek to Lynn, Massachusetts to play against the North Shore Navigators. Team USA walked away with a 4-1 win. The next afternoon the National team took on an NECBL Select squad which won 4-3 at Fenway Park in Boston, Massachusetts. This is the first of a two part series of post focusing on pitchers.

Texas holds Scout Day/Fall Scrimmage
The Texas Longhorns were scheduled to hold a nine inning scrimmage and scout day on Sunday afternoon at UFCU Disch-Falk Field but the game was shortened by rain.
The star of the day on the mound was junior RHP Taylor Jungmann who pitched two hitless innings while allowing a walk and striking out two batters. Junior LHP Andrew McKirahan was very good on the day also as he let up two hits in two innings of work but struck out five batters while picking off a baserunner. The other star on the hill was sophomore LHP Hoby Milner who retired all six batters he faced while striking out three.

White Marble Lazy Susan 2 2
I love this! I have been waiting and waiting for this to finally come back in stock. it is high quality and turns so smoothly. I ended up ordering one for my mom also after she saw mine! Great product and a great price! April 14, 2015
Great quality for the price I bought this marble lazy Susan to replace a much more expensive cheese platter I bought at WS. It is excellent and seems to be of the same quality as the one at WS. I love the large size as I don't like clutter and like to do double duty on anything I purchase. I use it for cheese and cakes. I love the lazy susan feature!! Only down side is that I wish I would have seen this when I bought the more expensive one! I would have saved about 80.00 December 31, 2014

Professor Harborne Stuart calls teaching "a fruitful collision" between teachers, or abstract thinkers, and the students who will one day put those ideas into action.
Stuart worries that many professors do not share enough of their research with their students. "For many teachers, there is too much of a disconnect between the research they do and what they teach." For Stuart, this is a mistake. "Our students are our proxy to the real world."
For 2007-2008, Stuart (a professor at Columbia University) will share some of his expertise with MIT Sloan as a visiting associate professor teaching Core Strategy, an experience he said he is excited to have. "I enjoy working with students and helping them figure things out."
As a teacher, Stuart believes he helps to shape "one of the few points in (our student's) lives when they have the time to think reflectively." He does not waste that time; he shares his research with his students and includes them in the dialogue. As a teacher, Stuart holds his students to the same standards as his research partners, a technique he says "maintains high standards for our students and for ourselves."
Stuart' s opinions about teaching were born when he was a student himself at Harvard University. He graduated with a degree in mathematics in 1978 and worked developing and implementing information systems in high-technology manufacturing companies. After eight years, he realized that it was time to take a break from the corporate world and study the foundations of business.
Stuart headed back to Harvard where he earned a PhD in Decision Sciences in 1992. Since then, much of his research has been devoted to the development of business theory using game-theoretic approaches.
One of Stuart' s first papers, "Value-Based Business Strategy," viewed businesses as central players in economic value creation. According to Stuart and his co-author, Adam Brandenburger, a firm' s "added value" is a key determinant of its profitability. The work has become an important base for much of Stuart' s later research, which includes the further development of "interactive decision theory" (taking strategic uncertainty as the primary focus) and "added value theory" (using cooperative game theory to study businesses as the central players in economic value creation).
Stuart plans to share his work with his students and is intrigued by the benefits — both personal and professional — of his time back in his hometown. A long time rower, Stuart is excited to get back on the Charles River. In his time on land, he plans to explore new collaborations and ideas. "I am looking forward to being part of the larger MIT community."
