It seems Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer heard the complaints from fellow Big Ten coaches Bret Bielema and Mark Dantonio about his recruiting tactics on Thursday, and not surprisingly, he doesn't care.
According to Buckeye fansite the OZone, Meyer fired back while at the Ohio High School coaches clinic on Friday morning.
"You're pissed because we went after a committed guy? Guess what, we got 9 guys who better go do it again," said Meyer. "Do it a little harder next time."
Meyer also released a statement on Friday afternoon.
"I was pleased to take part in a productive, regularly scheduled meeting of the Big Ten Conference coaches today in Chicago," said Meyers in the release. "We had an opportunity to discuss a number of issues with each other and conference staff, including those that have arisen this week. It should be noted that my coaching staff is in full compliance with our recruiting efforts, and no one on this staff did anything illegal or unethical. We will continue to comply with NCAA rules and recruit with relentless effort, especially the great state of Ohio.
"I want to thank Commissioner Delany for his insight and leadership, and at this point we all look forward to moving past this week and getting ready for the start of spring football."
This all started when Wisconsin's Bret Bielema and Michigan State's Mark Dantonio publicly criticized Meyer's recruiting tactics. Of the ten players that committed to Ohio State after Meyer became head coach, eight had previously committed to other schools. That includes offensive tackle Kyle Dodson (Wisconsin) and defensive end Se'Von Pittman (Michigan State).
Bielema also said on Thursday night that Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez was going to be talking to Jim Delany about Meyer's recruiting tactics. All because of a supposed "gentleman's agreement" -- an agreement that even Alvarez himself denied exists on Friday -- within the Big Ten that says coaches aren't supposed to go after another coach's commits while recruiting.
Which wasn't the way Meyer, or any coach, did things in the SEC, and it doesn't look like Urban is willing to adapt.

Urban Meyer responds to fellow coaches' criticism
Urban did nothing wrong here....he is as dirty as they come will break any rule, play criminals if they help him win, will cover up anything, win at all costs regardless of ethics and morals....perfect for the SEC, Ohio St, Oregon, Miami, Florida St, Nebraska and any Texas program....but he did nothing wrong here, folks are cry babies in the little 10

Urban Meyer responds to fellow coaches' criticism
God, I never knew the Big 10 was such a conference full of crybabies and whiners. Wah=wah...the SEC is sleazy..wah-wah...Urban Meyer stole our recruits. Just shut up and play! The Big 12 and Pac 12 aren't crying, and the Big east...well, the Big East isn't relevant anymore.

A lot of whining going on. If he did something wrong he will eventually get caught. Listen, schools win some and lose some in recruiting, get over it and try to do a better job next year. SC loses quality players yearly and you don't hear us whining.

Urban Meyer responds to fellow coaches' criticism
First, it was Michigan State, not Michigan, doing the whining. Brady Hoke was interviewed after this commotion arrose and stated that there is no gentlemens agreement and every prospect is fair game until he signs that LOI.
Second, Les Miles came out and blasted Gunner Kiel for switching his commit to Notre Dame at a recent LSU rally event. That was big time sour grapes right there.

Urban Meyer responds to fellow coaches' criticism
You sound so ignorant. He did not cheat moron. Until a kid signs on the dotted line... ANY school can approach him and recruit him. Michigan and Wisconsin are simply whining because they didn't get the kid to sign yet.
I didn't hear other schools crying when the QB prospect changed his mind and singned with Notre Dame at the last minute.
The Big 10 is gong to need to step up their game or Urban Meyer is going to destroy them... LEGALLY

Urban Meyer responds to fellow coaches' criticism
Anybody that doesn't believe Ohio State is one of the most corrupt schools in NCAA history has holes in their head. They have cheated for a very long time and that will never stop. It's not JUST Ohio State though, it's basically any school that's had a lot of success the last 20 years that cheats. They buy these kids.... kids don't miraculously just change their mind like that, they get bought. Complete families get bought all the time, we just don't hear about it

Urban Meyer responds to fellow coaches' criticism
Until a person signs on the dotted line there's no contract. That applies to buying a car, a home and certainly to kids making verbal commitments to play for a scholarship. If the NCAA wants to turn these commitments into a two-way binding agreement it needs to change the rules and let kids sign whenever the spirit moves them. They are committed to play; the school with which they signed is committed to provide a scholarship. Done deal. Until that time that a contract is signed the athlete can change his mind and the school, at the risk of damaging its reputation, can renege. Urban Meyer is a high profile coach who went to a high profile college that badly stubbed its toe. Bringing the two together seems to have righted the wrongs in the eyes of these high school seniors who project happy days ahead. Thus 9 of them apparently opted to pass up their first love for Ohio State. To think that Meyer should have said no, to think that Meyer would not say hey, give us a look, I'm here now and good things loom on the horizon is rather foolish. Certainly fans who lost players can feel disappointed but it happens everywhere. College sports recruiting, particularly football and basketball, is not a genteel affair. Whether you like him or hate him, Urban Meyer plays hardball when it comes to recruiting and what he does is within the rules. Gentlemen's agreements can be damned.

In 1982, marketers associated with Algonquin College met in Ottawa to establish a marketing institute modeled after the Chartered Institute of Marketing—UK. The Institute was launched to promote and develop the practice of marketing in Canada by encouraging the adoption of professional Standards and qualifications by practitioners and employees, and to become the recognized body for professional marketers in Canada.
In 1984, the Institute's by-laws were approved and James Jarrett, MCInst.M., FCInst.M was confirmed as the Institute's National Chairman.
In 1992, the Institute changed its focus on educational standards and decided to accredit educational institutions whose programs matched the Institute's education requirements for membership.
At the 2001-2002 Annual General Meeting, Grant Lee became the Institute's first paid general manager to run the day-to-day operations of the Institute and activate committees chaired by members of the Board of Directors.
The Institute enhanced its online presence through 2005 by refreshing its Website and e-marketing activities. For the first time, readers of Marketing Canada could subscribe to the journal online.
In 2007, a new classification of membership was introduced. Members holding the designation MCInst.M could apply for a Certificate of Registration to practice as a Registered Professional Marketer (RPM).
Strategic alliances became the focus of the Institute from 2012 through 2015 and continue to influence the growth of the Institute.
Marketing Canada is the official journal of the Canadian Institute of Marketing. The publication is distributed quarterly as a pdf file to all members and friends of The Canadian Institute of Marketing. Each issue covers articles related to changing marketing theory, applications of standards and principles, and case studies. The journal also documents the history of events taking place at the Canadian Institute of Marketing.

The Canadian Institute of Marketing received its Certificate of Continuance in July, 2014. To secure the documentation from Industry Canada, the Canadian Institute of Marketing adopted the model bylaw provided by Industry Canada and updated the Institute's bylaw. Included in the update is a new membership category - International Associate.
The category, International Associate (ICInst.M) is for marketers residing in countries other than Canada who wish to be a peer-reviewed member holding a Canadian Institute of Marketing credential. They are non-voting members and cannot challenge the Institute's Certificate of Registration to be able to use the post nominal RPM (Registered Professional Marketer). Only professional members holding the designation MCInst.M can challenge the exam.
Any marketer residing in countries other than Canada may apply for the voting level Associate (ACInst.M) and Professional Member (MCInst.M) designations. There are, however, experience and academic requirements for the ICInst.M designation. These are detailed on the membership page of this Web site at http://www.professionalmarketer.ca/Membership.aspx.

When asked whether the call for the protest was voluntary or under someone's influence, he said, "It was my call and I am happy that my family supported me. The day I decided to sit on hunger strike, my son took charge of agricultural work at home as I own 35 acres of land in the village," said Khalsa. "Now I have decided to leave my family for the cause," he added.
"Earlier, we were demanding the release of four prisoners, but then we got so many phone calls, and decided to demand the release of the six prisoners. "We will also fight for the Sikh prisoners who are under trial and will provide them all legal help."
On being asked about the role of the Punjab government, he said that initially they did not pay heed to their demands, but it was in the last week that they were under pressure and were forced to act on their demands. He said some political parties tried to politicise the issue, but failed to do so.
Khalsa seemed relaxed and in a jovial mood as he had langar with a few journalists. He wore a Rolex watch and later went home in a brand new Mitsubishi Pajero SUV costing around Rs. 24 lakh.

It took seven weeks, but we have separation. Three Lucky Losers have broken from the field, and each seems determined to make the worst of this season.
The question, of course, is: Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the baddest of them all? Based on what I saw last weekend it's Indianapolis. The Colts were so egregious I heard Baltimore refused to take them back ... even after Indianapolis agreed to accept the Orioles and Ravens' offensive coordinator Cam Cameron in return.
The Colts were more tangled than Curtis Painter's 'do, so dreadful you almost forget what happened in Miami ... and I'm not talking about Tim Tebow. I'm talking about the never-say-breathe Dolphins. What a brutal loss, and let's hear it for Tony Sparano. He blew a 15-point lead in the last three minutes of the fourth quarter, and that takes imagination. Call it Commitment to Pestilence.
Then there's St. Louis. Once I thought the Rams were better than their record. Now I believe Bill Parcells when he says you are what your record says you are. Translation: The Rams stink. This is one team that won't draft Luck, nor should it. If the Rams have the first pick they should auction it off to the highest bidder in return for a gazillion draft picks -- turning them into wide receivers and offensive linemen -- as well as directions to the nearest end zone.
5. Minnesota -- After watching Christian Ponder operate against Green Bay I have one question: What took so long to get him in the lineup? I don't care what Donovan McNabb's study habits were or if he was late to meetings or what his footwork looked like. With him, the Vikings were on life support; with Ponder, they at least have a pulse. OK, so I was wrong about McNabb. I thought he'd have a big season. I also thought the Rams would win the NFC West, and the earth was flat. Now you know why I consult a Ouija board. Anyway, if Minnesota is going to keep the Vikings out of Los Angeles it better give people a reason to go to games. With Ponder, it has. Onward, Christian soldiers.
Next loss: at Carolina. The Land of 10,000 Lakes has a Defense with 10,000 Holes, and, sorry, I don't get it. Leslie Frazier is the head coach, and he knows defense. At least he should. Forget about fixing the quarterback. You did that. How about plugging this defense so Cam Newton won't use it as his next launching pad?
4. Arizona: Hand out the life preservers. The S.S. Minnow is taking on water and starting to sink. Not only have the Cards lost their last five; they play four of their next five games on the road. So what? So they lost their last 10 there. This isn't a football season. It's the Bataan Death March. Quarterback Kevin Kolb was supposed to make these guys competitive, but he's struggling and so are his teammates. Beanie Wells is hurt. The offensive line is struggling. The defense can't stop a cold. I feel for Ken Whisenhunt. The guy's a terrific coach, and the natives are restless. Patience, people. Maybe you don't get Andrew Luck, but have you checked out Landry Jones?
Next loss: at Baltimore. This time the Ravens promise to include Ray Rice in the game plan.
3. Indianapolis: Remember when these guys were competitive? Now they get blown out by 55 points on national television, which tells you one thing: They know what they're playing for, and what they're playing for is Andrew Luck. I saw them against New Orleans, and they reminded me of the Dallas Cowboys in last year's beatdown in Green Bay. Not good. Offense. Defense. Special teams. Coaching. All go to the back of the class. Now there are rumors about Jim Caldwell's job security, and puh-leeze. A man's got to do what a man's got to do, and what Jim Caldwell must do is steer the Titantic to the bottom of the Atlantic. All I can say is: Thank goodness Jim Tressel finally was cleared to navigate. Remember, If you're going to stink ... or sink ... this is the year to do it.
Next loss: at Tennessee. The good news: The Titans just surrendered 41 points at home. The bad: The Colts just surrendered 62 on the road.
2. Miami : So the Dolphins were in the wrong defense for Tim Tebow's two-point conversion. I have no problem with that. In fact, I'd like to congratulate Mike Nolan, Tony Sparano and the rest of the Miami coaching staff for responding on such short notice. It's not often you get to blow a sure win, but isn't that what it's all about now? I mean, why sacrifice draft position for a meaningless victory? Basically, it comes down to this: Whom do you want more -- Tebow or Luck. I mean, do you really want to beat Tebow so badly that you blow your chances for Luck? Of course, not. You go for the silver, and Miami did. People aks when Sparano gets fired, but let's be honest: Why fire the guy who could bring you a franchise quarterback?
Next loss: at the New York Giants. Look at it this way, Miami: Neither Tim Tebow nor Urban Meyer will be in the building.
1. St. Louis: Scratch that Christmas layaway. Someone must give offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels a GPS system now so he can find the end zone. Over the past four games the Rams produced 27 points, never scoring more than 10 in each nor more than 7 in three. Pathetic. There's more life in downtown St. Louis on a Tuesday night than there is in this offense. What's so disturbing is for all the megabucks the Rams invested in their offensive line they're getting little or no return. If I'm Sam Bradford, I hope for a long, slow recovery from my sprained ankle. If I'm the Rams, however, I'm hiring Tony LaRussa once baseball is over to serve as a consultant. If he can put the Cardinals in the Series maybe he can put these guys in the end zone.
Next loss: New Orleans. Rewind the videotape to last weekend's Indianapolis-New Orleans game. Check, please.

By Chris Barsanti on Wednesday 21st December 2005
Marshall gives the film, especially its early scenes where Sayuri (Ziyi Zhang) gets schooled in the hard-knock ways of the okiya, a goodly amount of sound and fury that has more than a hint of Spielberg to it (the original director of the project, he stayed on as producer). Having one of the world's most photogenic period settings, Marshall makes all that he can of it, and the results are astonishing. This is a film of fluttering cherry blossoms and dark alleyways lit by paper lanterns, where all houses have their own deftly-maintained garden and everyone is dressed to the nines. The problem is that no amount of amped-up drama or pretty window-dressing can make up for the fact that the phenomenally talented cast has been stuck with hackneyed dialogue to deliver in English - a first language for none of them.
Given that the filmmakers had already made the controversial decision to cast non-Japanese actors in key roles (apparently with the idea that Asian is Asian), wouldn't it have made sense to cast Asian-Americans with a greater facility for English? Forcing such graceful actresses as Zhang and Michelle Yeoh - as the older geisha Mameha, who takes Sayuri under her wing - into the clumsy circumlocutions of English seems practically an insult. That's not to say that the cast doesn't work some magic with the material at hand. Zhang and Yeoh have a warm and sisterly chemistry, used to better effect in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and their martial arts skills give them a natural grace that makes them all the more believable as the quietly regal geishas, the "artists of the floating world" as Sayuri calls them. Also doing what they can are the great Ken Watanabe and Koji Yakusho (Cure), whose characters are both vying for Sayuri's hand - they play patently ludicrous lines with undeserved dedication and emotion. Faring less well is Gong Li, whose preternatural beauty and quiet skill is here twisted into a caricature of jealous hatred and decadent self-destruction. Playing another older geisha, Hatsumomo rival to Mameha, she does everything within her power to destroy Sanyuri. Although it's meant to be seen in epic scale, the bitter little contest is more like something out of a Joan Collins novel, or Showgirls. All of them, from Zhang to Watanabe and Li, should be above this.
Unfortunately, this is the film's problem: Although the impressive visual scope is that of a grand studio melodrama, the small-scale story of love and betrayal seems hardly appropriate to the treatment. The oversize grandiosity of the film's look also goes against the grain of the book, a far less romantic treatment. Rightly fascinated by the minutely detailed bylaws of the geishas' universe, Golden was more journalistic than celebratory. The filmmakers, however, produced a work of unreflective Japanese kitsch on a level with The Last Samurai. When Americans show up, as part of the occupying army, they are presented as uncouth barbarians who demolished the delicate floating world of Sanyuri, Hatsumomo, and Mameha. While an air of remorse is perhaps the right tone for the death of any subculture, the world of the film is so narrow that pre-occupation Japan looks like a feudal Disneyland, where everybody knew their place and the cherry blossoms were always falling. It's hard to say which is more troubling, the fact that the filmmakers present this fantasy as truth, or the fact that they seem to pine so much for it.

While FIFA organizers hail the 2015 Women's World Cup as a success, Edmonton's city manager says the international spotlight on the city throughout the tournament enhances its reputation for hosting global events. "I think FIFA and the Canadian Soccer Association have been very positive about the city, and I'm not surprised about that," said city manager Simon Farbrother.

David, I'm curious how did you find the members for your mastermind? My brother-in-law and I have started one but so far we've asked 5 to join us and none have shown much interest. Curious as to how others have found folks.
Great David! That's wonderful!
I hosted my first mastermind group this morning in Wilmington NC. It went great!
Jon's mastermind has really helped me get more out of what I am doing and help others too. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to take their business to another level.
We had a really good Mastermind Group session the other day with fellow 48 Days Member Leo Landaverde. Leo shared some of the lessons he learned from his journey as an owner of a $20 Million health care organization to going bust and working his way back again - The Unbreakable Mindset
I'll be launching a new Maximizer Mastermind Group next month. If you'd like more information, send me an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Met some wonderful people today. We had a great mastermind! If you would like to join us next week, then check it out and e-mail me. ONLY 1 spot left for the Tuesday afternoon group. View details.
Keep "Pressing Forward"!
All the best,
Only 2 spots left, then the Tuesday mastermind is full! If you would like one of the last spots for our meeting on Tuesday, May 19th at 5:30 p.m. CDT, check out the details. You can try the first meeting for "free", then it's only $20 a month. Less than a dollar a day investment.
Not available on Tuesdays; Try our Saturday mastermind starting on Saturday, May 30th.
All the best,
As a follow-up to our teleseminar... Kathy Brunner and I have created a mastermind. It's a great way to take your dream to the next level:
Maximize Your Momentum

David -
I had a person ask to join my current Mastermind Group, and they brought up this exact issue. I very politely explained to them that the biggest value that I (and the group) bring to them is the ability to connect them with people that can help execute their idea, and asked them to reconsider their thoughts regarding "stealing ideas" and instead take the risk of "sharing ideas."
I've been strongly influenced by posts like this one. In a related context, I've ranted about NDAs on my podcast and blog. (As a rule, unless a client is willing to pay for a minimum engagement of $10,000 I don't sign NDAs.)
Here's why I think that type of mindset can be poisonous to a Mastermind Group:

P.s. Learn about 1x1 Coaching and take advantage of my special offer for 48 Days Members and get Dan's Full Sha Bang DISC Assessment for only $35.
We are starting a new Mastermind group and a couple of questions came up. One was about "stealing ideas" and how to set-up ground rules for dealing with that, and the other question is if one member gives another member an idea or suggestion for their business that turns out to be a home run idea, who gets credit? Any one have any ideas or recommendations on how to handle these 2 situations in a Mastermind? Thanks.

Time for a game that comes up periodically on these forums, I'm sure:
Where should I go to bring in my 50th in style and panache without breaking the bank?!?
This year we're ringing out my 40s by spending a well-deserved 5-night getaway in San Francisco. Relaxation, a little romance, good food, The City. Since we're looking at over a year from now, we have time to fantasize a bit. Places already in the hopper:
-- NYC (already been, LOVE)
-- Chicago (already been, LOVE)
-- Maui (I've never been, but I LOVED O'ahu)
-- Hawai'i (i.e., Big Island-- never been etc., etc., etc.)
-- Eastern Caribbean Cruise (a bit of a homecoming since I lived in Puerto Rico as a preteen)
-- Montréal and/or Vancouver and/or Toronto (Montréal mostly to visit my niece who lives there)
What would YOUR dream vacation to celebrate a milestone birthday be? Some ground rules:
-- Seven to ten days duration
-- We will NOT drive more than 10 hours from home (southern California); otherwise we fly (in fact, we prefer to fly, except when we're buying cases of wine, tee hee)
-- We're game for anything, but not keen on heavy scheduling of activities; for example, we know we can do anything and everything in NYC, but we don't want to feel obligated to try to do everything
-- Must be LGBTQ-friendly, but not over-the-top so
Price won't be an object till we decide on which location we're going to. Dream away, and thanks for your ideas!

My 50th-- August 2014-- Where to Go?!?
Time for a game that comes up periodically on these forums, I'm sure:
Report Abuse
I'd go to Hawaii myself. Oh that's right... I DID! (lol)
Report Abuse
Yes, another vote for Hawaii. Big Island might be hot in August so I would go for either Maui or my favorite, Kauai. The North Shore is beautiful that time of year.
Report Abuse
Or how about Paris? Or Venice? Or Amsterdam?
To me (assuming you live in the US) NYC or Chicago just don't seem like quite a big enough deal for a special b-day.
Report Abuse
What month? Although, I vote for Maui any time of year.
Report Abuse
suze: We're open to the entire world, really. Like I said, we'll decide on a place and price out the trip, then make the final decision.
msteacher: The month will be August of 2014. That could put a wrench in, say, a southern Europe trip (as I recall, some cities essentially shut down in that month). But I know I will love Hawai'i in August, since we went there for my husband's birthday six years ago (also in August).
Yes, this is a very open-ended query, but this is everyone's chance to dream, and talk up your favorite "milestone" spot! And thanks again, everyone. It DOES help me.
Report Abuse
Ah the entire world? How about Buenos Aires?
Report Abuse
Intriguing.... It would definitely interest me, but my DH-- not so much.
I might see splurging on a Family Roots trip to Spain (my roots) and Portugal (his), with some time in Paris (both). But that would probably take us to 2 weeks, which can be a hard amount of time to block out (he runs his own business). Still....
Report Abuse
I think Spain/Portugal and family roots sounds great, but you would need at least 2 weeks, and it really doesn't strike me so much as a celebratory vacation type of trip.
Report Abuse
Oh, we'd celebrate-- we can make anywhere we go a party. And I plan to!!!
Report Abuse
My wild idea - YMMV.
Fly to Toronto - see Niagara Falls?
Take the ViaRail train from Toronto to Montreal.
See your niece!
Take the Amtrak Adirondack train from Montreal to New York City.
See and do whatever you wanted to see and do in New York.
Day 10 fly back home to Southern California from New York.
Living where you do you can probably go to any of the Hawaiian Islands at a nicer time of year.
Report Abuse
tom: Hmmmmmm.... That has possibilities. I'm going to put that in the hopper; that could be a lot of fun!
Report Abuse
For my 50th, we went to Spain to visit family. We did tourist stuff: Barcelona, Cadeques, San Sebastián, Rioja, but also spent some time with cousins near Pamplona. We got to visit both my grandparents' villages in the Pyrenees. My grandmother's village is on the Camino de Santiago. We also spent time with some other cousins living closer to Barcelona. Great fun, learned so e more family history. Since then, several cousins have passed away, so I am glad we did the trip.
Report Abuse
August is the kicker....I think you are right to leave off the European destinations. I would have recommended Paris (that's where I spent my 50th ), but so much shuts down in August, and its so hot.
Hawaii is great anytime, its a good choice.
But lets think about someplace that is particularly good to visit in August, and not some other time...
The Northeast could work. Cape Cod? Maybe Provincetown is too over-the-top LGBTQ-friendly. But other parts of the outer cape would lovely that time of year.
You mentioned cruising. How about Alaska? Perfect time of year for it. A few days in Vancouver would be lovely that time of year as well. If the Alaska cruise doesn't appeal, how about Vancouver and the Canadian Rockies? In fact, I see you mentioned Vancouver. I think that would be a great starting point for a celebratory vacation. And there are a number of places you could go from there.
If you decided on Montreal, you could pair it with a visit to the Eastern Townships. Since you said money is no object, check out Manoir Hovey. Now that is a place to celebrate http://www.manoirhovey.com/en/
Report Abuse
Peru. For the Spanish routes. Lima has amazing food and you will at times think you are in Los Angeles. You can fly nonstop LAX to Lima on LAN.
Include an extension to Machu Picchu (hiking is not required) and stay at some of the luxurious hotels around Cusco, the Sacred Valley (Tambo del Inka) or in Aguas Calientes .
August is high season so start looking for availability soon.
You will find lots of how to advice here in the trip reports.
www.andeantravelweb.com is another good resource.
Report Abuse
Go to Vancouver(Canada), if you've never been.
Project your future, and with Vancouver not being on the way toward anywhere else, when else are you likely to get there??
The logistics of Vancouver are relatively simple, and you can easily have a wild "celebration" by merely throwing yourself in the middle of Granville Street action. The whole trip can be as tame or as wild as you might choose, and the backdrop can scarcely be topped, while just 3 or 4 hours from home by air.
Report Abuse
Well, kids, checking back in....
We have gone a bit back and forth on this issue, and domestic family issues are steering us toward....
(drum roll)
We will have one day for family obligations on the Cape, then spend one crazy week in P'Town by ourselves to ring in my 50th!!! At this point we don't need suggestions; P'Town is familiar and ADORED (we're coming back, Dina Martina!!!).
Thanks for the suggestions. If the family stuff weren't so pressing, we'd entertain other places. And hey-- as long as we're young(-ish), we'll have plenty of time for those places!!

Bret Bielema will be paid $3.2 million annually for six years at Arkansas, the school said Wednesday as it prepared to introduce its new football coach. Arkansas released its signed letter of agreement with Bielema, which includes another $700,000 in annual incentives. Arkansas will also pay its new coach's $1 million buyout to Wisconsin. It was not immediately known whether Bielema would coach Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl against Stanford on Jan. 1. ''His tough, aggressive style of play has been successful and will be appealing to student-athletes and Razorback fans,'' Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long said ahead of a Wednesday afternoon news conference. ''He not only shares the vision and values for the future of Arkansas football, he embraces them.'' Bielema replaces interim coach John L. Smith, who was hired after Bobby Petrino was fired. Long announced after the season that Smith wouldn't return. Bielema's agreement calls for paying Arkansas $3 million if he leaves during...

Five years later, Eve Mackay, the eldest sister, has graduated from college and settled in to life as a Mackay in Pulaski County, Kentucky. She works hard as a cocktail waitress and helps out at the bed-and-breakfast that Dawg bought for her mother. If she keeps herself busy enough, maybe she'll be able to stay away from the man she promised Dawg she wouldn't date, the man who has awakened her most ravenous fantasies...
He's Brogan Campbell, a biker rumored to be a traitor and a thief. But he's just playing a part; he came to Kentucky for a DHS mission that no one, except Cranston, is supposed to know about. Eve is the key to the whole operation, and his orders are to get her participation. But his need for Eve has nothing to do with stolen secrets and the safety of the country...
When Dawg took in Eve and her sisters, he warned them that if they ever lied, cheated, or betrayed the family, they risked losing everything. But desire and danger are locked in an inescapable embrace, and Eve has to make her choice between family or Brogan, for better or worse...

Autism Caucus Co-Chairs and Leading Grassroots Autism Association Push for Services Worldwide
BETHESDA, Md., April 1, 2008 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The United Nations has designated April 2 as World Autism Awareness Day. To mark this historic occasion, the Autism Society of America, the World Autism Organization and the Co-Chairs of the bipartisan Congressional Coalition for Autism Research and Education (C.A.R.E.), Rep. Chris Smith and Rep. Mike Doyle, will hold a press conference on the Cannon Terrace to build support for critical legislation that would provide needed autism services in the U.S. and around the world.
An estimated 30 million people in the world have an autism spectrum disorder, 1.5 million in America alone. Every day in America, 60 families learn their child has autism. These families face challenges of care, support, education, financial hardship and medical and health care issues that make autism a national public health issue. Though there is no cure, autism is treatable and individuals with autism have tremendous potential.
"We have an epidemic on our hands and we need to immediately and aggressively address it on every front," Smith said.
Members of the House of Representatives are working so that the U.S. will become the first nation to initiate an effort to establish a global autism assistance program. In February 2008, a bi-partisan group of legislators joined Congressmen Smith and Doyle in introducing the Global Autism Assistance Act, (HR 5446). This landmark legislation will establish a global health and education grant program related to autism spectrum disorders and provide support to families, educational institutions, clinics and medical centers in developing nations.
"We will know we have succeeded when people on the autism spectrum
become an accepted part of the human condition," said ASA President and CEO
Lee Grossman. "While this goal may take a generation to achieve, the globa

RH7.3 + nForce 420-D + startx = FROZEN
1 Attachment(s)
I've got an ASUS A7N266-E Socket A Motherboard. It has an nVidia nForce 420-D Chipset built in. I downloaded and installed Redhat 7.3. I installed Redhat with the workstation option and I selected the development package + KDE + Gnome. I installed the kernel source from the Redhat CD2. I used up2date in order to get the latest gcc and glibc-kernheaders.
I used the following to packages to make and install the nVidia drivers:
Redhat's installer (I think it is called anaconda.) created the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and I editted it by:
# Load "dri" # Commenting out this line
# Load "GLcore" # Commenting out this line
Load "glx" # making sure this one existed and it does
# Driver "nv" # commenting out this line
Driver "nvidia" # replacing it with this one
Is this part correct? I loaded the NVdriver by typing:
insmod NVdriver
I then start X by typing:
and my computer's screen becomes black. I am able to reboot my computer by hitting ctrl+alt+delete. I had similar results when I tried loading the binary rpm's.
I need help. I can be emailed directly at email@example.com by anyone willing to help. I will post the solution if I ever figure it out.
My XF86Config-4 is attached.
visit http://www.nforcershq.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=29 for a detailed faq and tips
Can you post a copy of your /var/log/XFree86.0.log file?
Mandrake 9.0 RC1 Worked
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I replaced Redhat with a newly downloaded Mandrake 9.0 RC1 and the installer detected my hardware and installed some drivers for it that allow me to get to KDE and Gnome just fine. I may try installing Redhat again in the future or the nVidia drivers on my Mandrake PC, but untill then everything is working fine.
I'm still somewhat of a Linux newbie and I'll probably play around on Mandrake untill the next Redhat release.
Redhat 8 + nForce 420-D + startx = FROZEN
1 Attachment(s)
I was hoping the new version of Redhat would solve my problems, but X freezes when I try to start it. What I don't understand is why Mandrake Linux 9.0 RC1 didn't have any problem detecting my video card and montitor and configuring X appropriately. I am tempted to reinstall Mandrake Linux to grab a copy of the XFConfig files and compare them to Redhats.
I'm not trying to install the drivers from NVidia yet, as the NV ones should work with Redhat. They are working with Mandrake.
Here is the log file /var/log/XFree86.1.log
Any help would be appreciated.

Here is the /etc/X11/XF86Config (XF86Config-4 doesn't exist) file created from Redhat 8's installation program, Anaconda.
Redhat 8 XServer Not Working
1 Attachment(s)
I reinstalled Mandrake Linux 9.0 RC1 in order to get a copy of the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. This configuration works with Mandrake Linux (It is attached to this post.)
I then reinstalled Redhat Linux 8.0 and I compared that file to Redhat's /etc/X11/XF86Config file. (I already posted it in a previous reply.)
The main differences I could see when looking at the two files are that Mandrake doesn't load the modules: dri, fbdevhw, or record. Mandrake also uses the "fbdev" driver rather that the "nv" driver.
I tried making a lot of different change to the Redhat XF86Config file, but I would hang evertime. As a last resort, I even tried replacing it with Mandrake's XF86Config-4 file, but that didn't help either. (Should I have just removed the current XF86Config file and copied XF86Config-4 in from Mandrake.) I noticed Mandrake has both a XF86Config and a XF86Config-4. What is the relationship? Does XF86Config get read at all; my assumption was no.
Any help getting Redhat to work with my nVidia nForce would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Making Progress with Redhat 8
I downloaded and installed the latest 1.0-3123 nVidia graphics drivers from source .tar.gz files. For those of you following along, I have Redhat 8 Workstation installed. The only addition package I had to install to compile (make install) those packages was kernel.source.rpm from CD2.
I'm now posting messages primarily in the nforcershq.com forum, because I have a motherbaord with an nforce chipset. I just posted my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file and the /var/log/XFree86.0.log file there.
I hope those that can help, especially those of you from nvidia can read my postings there. I'm still having problems, but a lot of progress has been made.
The log message is reporting errors like this:

In 3 words: Best Experience Ever! I do prefer adventurous vacations, and always thought of skydiving as both appealing and terrifying! Once I scheduled the jump for myself and my daughter, I began having second thoughts out of sheer fear, which subsequently proved baseless. Everyone at NZone is professional and friendly. Clearly, they are all about safety first. We jumped from 15000 and would definitely do it again with NZone in the future. Two suggestions based upon our experience schedule the jump early in the day and at the beginning of the vacation, in case of changing weather conditions which may result in a reschedule or two, and definitely hire the photographer to record the event. Our photo books are an excellent keepsake of this incredible experience. Finally, my advice to anyone who is considering a jump, just do it with NZone!

It was really awesome and all tensed adults enjoyed it. Just enough extreme for us, flying upside down helped once the first zip was done. The people were great. Remember that the trees block a lot of the views, although there were still good ones between and two out of the 6 lines offered good views. It wasn't scary.

Not much time down at Milford Sound compared to how much driving is involved, but it turns out the drive is a huge part of the trip! Breath-taking views and scenic spots on the way down, we stopped several times to take it in and our driver had plenty of stories and information to keep us entertained informed. The boat trip once you reach Milford is worth the wait too!

One not so good thing- when we were booking we thought "4WD tour" meant we would be driving ourselves on 4 wheelers, we didn't know it meant we'd be riding in a bus. Found out New Zealand calls the trip we were wanting "quad bikes," so we would've booked something like that instead, had we known.

This is a hard tour to rate because the jet boat ride was excellent and ten out of ten.Ben was a great driver and loved doing his 360s. Really good fun. All equipment supplied including fleecy undershirt, wetsuit, wet weather jacket and water boots. Unfortunately I cannot give an accurate review of the Funyak canoe as the weather we experienced was apparently the worst any of our guides have ever experienced on this tour. However the tour still went ahead. We received the tail of Sydney's very bad storm and the winds were gale force. Our guide Toby told us on a number of occasions it was the worst conditions he had ever seen along the river. We were first timers and I found the whole experience really frightening. One occasion Toby told us we could not cross the river as we normally would because the current was so strong so we had to have one person out of the canoe to push it on a 90 degree angle while the other person paddled furiously. The rocks in the water were very slippery under the water boots. When we finally made it to the lunch stop you had to pull your canoe through the water for about 100m. When my husband collapsed our guide and the other family were out of sight. Enter Gareth. In the middle of nowhere he comes walking out of the bushes with only Tshirt and shorts on very, very cold day and offers to take our canoe for us. When he found out my husband was having an asthma attack which he hasn't suffered for at least 20 years he pulled a Ventolin inhaler out of his shorts pocket. He was our saviour. We finally made it up to lunch which was delicious and plentiful. We had a very sedate canoe ride into the canyon which was unbelievably easy because there was no gale force winds and it was magnificent. I was very frightened about canoeing back and I was right, it wasn't easy. I think this would be a lovely day when weather permits, but due to the stormy conditions I would never consider doing this again. HUGE thanks to Gareth.

A movement banned by Stalin is the focus of a show at the Royal Academy, which includes a model of the grandiose Tatlin's Tower.
A model of Tatlin's Tower – otherwise known as the Monument to the Third International – dominates the courtyard of the Royal Academy in London. The display complements the academy's new exhibition, Building the Revolution: Soviet Art and Architecture 1915-1935.
Designed in 1920, Tatlin's Tower was planned to become the headquarters of the Comintern in Petrograd; the 400-metre structure was intended to dwarf the Eiffel Tower. It was to have a projector that would transmit propaganda into the clouds for the proletariat to read. But the tower was not a practical proposition, structurally, and it could only ever have been built in model form.
The spiralling steel and lopsided dynamism of Tatlin's Tower contrasts brilliantly with the symmetrical classicism and colonnaded facade of Burlington House. Reactions to the tower in the courtyard vary hugely, from couples enthusiastically photographing themselves in front of it to old women shaking their heads and muttering. These differences reflect the wider debate about the works on show inside.
Constructivism, an attempt to create a utopian architecture, is an acquired taste. With their uncompromising concrete facades and deliberate lack of embellishment, these buildings are not a popular choice for preservation campaigns, but this was a time when Russia led the artistic world. Part of their appeal lies in the radical rethinking of form and function that inspired their creation.
These early Soviet monuments – built before 1935 when Stalin banned constructivist architecture – were intended to support post-revolutionary life: apartments for communal living, bakeries to cater to the masses and press offices to spread the good news. The RA's celebration of the utilitarian elegance of these buildings is organised thematically by function, with separate halls dedicated to communications, industry, health and housing.
The exhibition includes vintage photographs of these clubs, cafeterias, towers and turbine halls, alongside Richard Pare's images of them seven decades later. Pare's poster-perfect photographs are the largest and most striking images in the show. They include the mesmerising hyperboloids of Vladimir Shukhov's radio tower; the light-filled studio of architect Konstantin Melnikov's house; the Sochi sunset over the palm-planted Voroshilov Sanitorium and Lenin's tomb in a crowd-free Red Square.
Achitectural expert Clementine Cecil calls Melnikov's house "an icon of modernist design and one of the most fascinating examples in the world of an architect's own house." Consisting of two interlocking cylinders with diamond-shaped windows, it is an extraordinary space. The Rusakov Workers' Club, also designed by Melnikov, is a fine example of form and function in harmony with lotus-like petals echoing the shape of the auditorium inside.
It is harder for a lay person to understand the artistic value of a derelict factory or a crumbling apartment block, but the exhibition helps by setting the buildings in an aesthetic context.
The weak point of the Building the Revolution exhibition is that the futurist paintings and drawings on show are only vaguely connected to the architecture in question. The geometric, modernist works, selected from the wonderful Kostakis Collection in Thessaloniki, certainly form an appropriate background for the buildings photographed, but co-curator MaryAnne Stevens' promise to explore "the interplay between art and architecture during these heroic years" doesn't really materialise: the links between them are merely described as "echoes," or "redolent of".
Nevertheless, the images do reinforce the powerful impact of the exhibition.
- Building the Revolution: Soviet Art and Architecture 1915-1935 runs until January 22, 2012 in the Sackler Wing, Royal Academy of Arts, Piccadilly, London. "Tatlin's Tower" is on display until January 29, 2012.
