Smuin Ballet Begins Season With OH, INVERTED WORLD, COLD VIRTUES and More in San Francisco, 10/5-14
Smuin Ballet kicks off its bold 2012 -2013 season with a revival of its smash hit Oh, Inverted World by Trey McIntyre, the West Coast premiere of Cold Virtues by rising star choreographer Adam Hougland, and three works by the late Michael Smuin: Starshadows, Homeless, and No Viviré. Smuin Ballet's Fall Program runs October 5-14, 2012 at the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre, San Francisco. Single tickets ($25-$65) and subscriptions ($120-$168) are now available at www.smuinballet.org or the public may call (415) 912-1899.
Called "striking" and "remarkable" by the New York Times, Oh, Inverted World by Trey McIntyre is set to music by the influential indie-rock band The Shins. An innovative fusion of McIntyre's fresh, impulsive choreography and The Shins' distinctive style, Oh, Inverted World is a mesmeric and lingering work marked by intricate patterns and athletic partnering. This dynamic ballet, commissioned by Smuin Ballet, received its world premiere in Fall 2010 in San Francisco, and recently enjoyed its New York premiere at The Joyce Theatre in Manhattan, when the New York Times again proclaimed it "irresistible. The Smuin dancers are excellent…they're at their finest here."
Smuin Ballet will also present the West Coast premiere of Cold Virtues by rising star choreographer Adam Hougland. The piece features 14 dancers, who whirl and leap against a hypnotic backdrop of spinning fans. Called "beautifully bleak, honest in unflinching fashion" by Louisville Courier-Journal, Hougland's piece, set to Philip Glass's haunting Violin Concerto, uniquely captures attention and halts time. As the Principal Choreographer for The Louisville Ballet and Resident Choreographer for Cincinnati Ballet, Houghland has added to his list of accomplishments by choreographing original works for The American Ballet Theatre Studio Company, Introdans in the Netherlands, The Limon Dance Company, The Washington Ballet, and The New York Choreographic Institute at New York City Ballet. In 2006, he created a world premiere for Juilliard's Centennial Celebration that was broadcast on the PBS 'Live from Lincoln Center' series. He has won the Princess Grace Award for Choreography, the Choo-San Goh Award for Choreography, and a New York State Council for the Arts Commissioning Grant, and was included in Dance Magazine's 25 to Watch for 2011 and Pointe Magazine's 10 VIPs of 2006.
The program continues with a set of pieces choreographed by Michael Smuin. Starshadows, a sensual and evocative adagio for three couples, explores the mystery and beauty of intimate relationships. Set to Maurice Ravel's Piano Concerto in G major, this piece is dark, dreamlike, and describes in dance a half-remembered melody that flows through the viewer's consciousness. Two solo works by Smuin will also grace the stage; Homeless is a joyous, exhilarating piece that celebrates dance athleticism through sudden leaps and sublime jumps while following the insistent exotic rhythm imbedded in the music. No Viviré spices up the stage when it pairs the extensive classical training of dancing en pointe with the delicious flavoring of Latin American rhythms.

Maori test for Brave Blossoms
Mon, 07 Jul 2014 09:22
We will treat them as Test matches
Japan's record 10-game winning streak will be given a stern test when the Asian champions face the Maori All Blacks in two matches this November.
The "Brave Blossoms", who last month beat Italy 26-23, face the Maoris on November 1 in the western city of Kobe and again in Tokyo on November 8.
"It's a fantastic opportunity for us to play against a team that probably ranks sixth or seventh in the world on ability," said Japan coach Eddie Jones.
"We will treat them as Test matches. They have a winning record of 90 percent over the last 20 games so it's fantastic preparation for the World Cup."
Japan, who will hold a training camp from July 14-18, broke into the world's top 10 for the first time following their win over Italy, but Jones has his sights on arresting their poor World Cup record.
The Japanese are drawn in Pool B at the World Cup in England, alongside South Africa, Scotland, Samoa and the United States.
They disappointed at the 2011 tournament under former All Black John Kirwan, beaten by hosts New Zealand, France and Tonga before drawing with Canada.
Japan's solitary World Cup win to date came against lowly Zimbabwe in 1991.

I use the product daily. If I am ever without this cologne and use something else, my nose misses the relaxing smell of the real thing.
It has a very natural smell, is not overwhelming, and does not smell like a fragrance of the month. Therefore, the aroma is always in style and season.
I really cannot think if anything that is not great about it. I once thought it was too expensive, but they started making larger bottles at a better value. My only reason for reconsidering a purchase was no longer valid.

I was unceremoniously kicked out of my last job in finance early in 2004. It was a career turning point for me after 24 years as an equity analyst at eight firms – brokers and investment managers – in both the United States and Europe. I took shelter in financial journalism. Much has changed in the money business since then. But reading about the behaviour that has led to a litany of huge fines, I fear that too much remained the same, at least until very recently.
Staunchly Catholic Malta approved the introduction of divorce, backing the move by a small majority in a referendum. "The referendum outcome is not the one I wished for, but the will of the majority will be respected and parliament will enact legislation for the introduction of divorce," Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi said in a video statement on Sunday. The vote was seen as a test of the influence of the Roman Catholic Church in a country where 72 percent of people say they go to Mass on Sundays and nearly all marriages are held at the altar. The Mediterranean island of 400,000 people is the only country in Europe not to allow divorce. Early results from Saturday's referendum showed a majority backing divorce of between 52 percent and 54 percent. The Divorce Movement declared victory and the anti-divorce movement conceded. Opposition leader Joseph Muscat had said changing the law was a vote for modernity and a chance for those with broken marriages to start afresh. Gonzi had said divorce offered "no solutions" and called for better preparation before weddings so that the "value of an indissoluble marriage is bequeathed to the young." Divorce legislation was proposed in July last year by Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, a member of Gonzi's own parliamentary group. It provides for people to become eligible for divorce after four years of separation.

Pope Benedict voiced the Catholic Church's deep concern over "hostility and prejudice" against Christianity in Europe on Thursday, saying creeping secularism was just as bad as religious fanaticism. In the message for the Roman Catholic Church's World Day of Peace, marked on Jan. 1, he also reiterated recent condemnations of lack of religious freedom in countries in the Middle East where Christians are a minority, such as Iraq and Saudi Arabia.

Gluten-Free Coconut and Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars by Squirrel's Bakery

In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease. In 1998 I founded The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore!, and I am the co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.View all articles by Scott Adams
In addition to being gluten-free, Squirrel's Bakery thick & hearty cookie bars are also soy, dairy and nut-free, so they will appeal to those of you who have additional food intolerances or allergies, as well as to those who have celiac disease. The bars are made using quality ingredients like Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, organic brown rice flour and Enjoy Life gluten, soy, dairy & nut free chocolate chips, and they are also a good source of fiber, iron, calcium and protein (the bars do contain eggs).
The first thing I noticed when biting into the Squirrel's Gluten-Free Coconut and Chocolate Chip bar is the large coconut flakes, which tasted wonderful. This taste was enhanced by the wonderful combination of their allergy-friendly chocolate chips, along with their blend of gluten-free flours and oats. The texture was very nice, it was not too moist and not too dryI've never been a fan of overly-soft cookies or bars.
The last question that must be answered about this excellent gluten-free "cookie": Could I get used to eating "cookie bars" instead of regular old cookies? Sure…I really can't imagine anyone who would not enjoy these special treats! They should please the most die hard cookie lovers, and offer a unique take on a traditional treat.
Squirrel's Bakery is a small family owned cookie manufacturing business based in Virginia Beach, Virginia and was founded in 2009. For more information, you can visit their Web site at www.squirrelsbakery.com.

text: Keep in mind the OM and Nikon bodies don't handle the same way - the OM shutter speed adjustment is at the front of the body, at the lens mount, while the Nikon has the more traditional shutter speed dial on the top of the camera. If you ever plan to use this camera with gloves on, make sure you try the OM before you buy it. Both are wonderful systems.

1999 Acura RL Q&A
1999 Acura RL Question: Check Engine Light
I disconnected battery and, check engine light was off until I got up to 45 mph and light came back on. Any suggestions. Also, car has 270,115 miles on it and, runs great even with light on. - darrius
Answer 1
You will need to get a diagnosis on your vehicle by a qualified mechanic. To me, it sounds like a fuel control issue (oxygen sensor, etc). Not entirely sure, the diagnosis will tell you everything you need to know. Good luck. Here are some shops near you... http://repairpal.com/directory?address=28215&car_brand_names=Acura - DaveJHM
Answer 2
Disconnecting the battery won't clear the trouble codes or fix anything. If the light's on, it's indicating that the computer detects a fault in the sensors and control systems. It should have data and trouble codes stored in the computer and you need a scanner to access that information. Then you can fix the car. With that mileage, the first thing I suspect are oxygen sensor or catalytic converter problems which you may not notice driving the car.

Catching up.. Leave Puerto soon, nice to relax and learn to speak spanish...
Had a hard time getting out of bed today, felt like crud all day. Did not go surfing or anything, just drank a lot of water and gatorade.. I have to get better at drinking water, I don't and then I get dehydrated and feel like crud all day long. Today was a very mellow day. I got to class and again it was hilarious we just learned and laughed all class. If my college classes were this fun I probably would of graduated.. haha. I went back to the hostel skipped dinner and just passed out by 9pm.
Day 28-
Woke up refreshed and ready for a great day. I ran around in the Centro all day looking for a vocab book, but cannot find it anywhere. I saw Andrea for a little while and then headed back into town. I met up with Lious and Mark and went surfing with them for awhile. Didn't have much luck again, although not as big just a lot of people. It was still a blast and a good work out. Did my spanish homework, played some pool and got a little dinner made. I headed up to class, stopped at the store to pick up some beer for us and went to class. Today was probably one of the funniest classes I have ever been envolved in, we just joked around and learned spanish for almost three hours. I was headed back to the hostel when I ran into my friend Martin from Argentina. He had just gotten back from a little surf trip down south and was headed into town, so I turned around and followed. I all of a sudden ran into three guys on motorcycles, I knew I knew one of the bikes it was a fellow I head met in Baja, one of the other guys was Patrick who I have been trying to meet up with for the whole trip. We talked for a while I showed them the hostel but they were looking for something more up scaled. I think they will be leaving today, must of the guys I have been running into are all about riding riding riding. I personally like to stop, meet people, and experience first hand where I am. Each to our own adventures. But I am truly having the time of my life, so many great new friends and experiences.
These past 4 days have been great!!! I went on a couple short surf trips, was doing spanish almost every night up until the 6
of December. My friend from Argentina came back from a surf trip in the South, we met back up for a few more nights of beer, cooking, and surfing.
I have made a family dinner a couple of times this week. I started off with fresh seared Ahi, Orange Buerre Blanc on the fish, Butter smashers, and Broccoli. Everyone was blown away, I was not thought I could of done a lot better but oh well next time. The next night we did Cheese burgers and Potato salad which were delicious, took them to a Medium don't know if I can trust the ground beef here.. gotta find that out. I then cooked a big pasta dinner for us and have been making lots of breakfast tacos.
I have made good friends with the owners of the hostel Mark and Lious. I have been going surfing a lot with Mark and leanring from him, they took me on a little have day surf trip up north to our own secluded beach break. Which was awesome to learn on.
I was walking into the bar to grab some pineapple juice one morning to go with my Breakfast tacos and everything is very low in mexico. I caught my head on a plastic screw nail thing and ripped my head open a little. (pictures below) Cleaned it up and went to my last spanish class on Tuesday night… sad… I learned a lot and had a lot of fun in this class. As a thank you for such fun and cheap classes, I took her out to dinner after class. We went to her friends place over looking the beach, with awesome Cerviche and Tacos. Couldn't have been a nicer person with two rad kids, one was 7 and an amazing surfer the kid rips…
I have been getting chewed alive by Mosquietos, started all of my Central and South America meds so I will be ready to leave in a few days.. My parts have been taking longer to get then expected so I am getting them shipped down to my Friend Ben Love and Dale Dagger Surf Hotel. I am just going to roll the dice fingers crossed that my tires have enough life to make it or another adventure with pervail.. hahaha.. I will be leaving here this weekend at some time, all my friends here want me to hangout until Christmas, but I am itching to get on the bike and ride into Gautemala..

No one is ready to refer to the quarterback situation for the University of Wisconsin football team as an abundance of talented players.
But the Badgers do have a glut of players to sort out at the position as spring practice opens today, which is going to put pressure on offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Andy Ludwig to make some quick decisions.
The Badgers go into spring practice with six quarterbacks: junior Joel Stave, sophomore Bart Houston, junior Tanner McEvoy, freshman D.J. Gillins (an early enrollee) and two walk-ons -- redshirt freshman Connor Senger and sophomore Thad Armstrong.
Stave has started 19 games over the past two seasons, including all 13 last year. But he was knocked out of the Capital One Bowl with a shoulder injury that is expected to keep him out of the start of spring drills.
"Joel's our starting quarterback," UW coach Gary Andersen said. "He started all the games last year. It's his spot to lose."
In early February, Ludwig expressed no concerns about Stave being ready in the spring. But ESPN indicated last week via its ESPN--Big Ten Twitter account that Stave would be limited for the first part of spring, with Houston, McEvoy and Gillins all getting work with the first team.
The tweet also indicated Ludwig wants to reduce the quarterback pool to three. With Stave a lock to be part of that group when he returns, that means Houston, McEvoy, Gillins and possibly Senger could be battling for two spots.
"They all want to play," Andersen said last month. "There's a lot of quarterbacks, but there's only so many reps to go around."
Ludwig mentioned "production" and "potential" as factors when it comes to dividing the practice snaps.
"Who's doing things right?" Ludwig said. "And then, the biggest thing is making sure, to evaluate guys, that they're getting the same reps. They're each throwing that corner route or that curl route in a team situation.
"In seven-on-seven, you're just learning plays and you're going as fast as you can. But in the team reps, trying to orchestrate it where they're getting the same type of plays, so you get a good chance to evaluate them equally."
Gillins, from Jacksonville, Fla., is the kind of dual-threat quarterback the Badgers have sought since the coaching staff arrived in December 2012. But he also has the furthest to go, missing almost his entire junior season of high school with a torn ACL.
"He needs to develop himself more as a dropback passer," Ludwig said. "Obviously, on the film you can see him run and make plays, but he's real raw in terms of his mechanics and throwing the football and his footwork in the dropback pass game. That's something he started working on already. That's where his upside is tremendous."
Gillins, 6-foot-3, 185 pounds, was a four-year starter at quarterback in high school, operating in spread offenses. He spent three years at Eagle's View Academy before transferring to Ribault as a senior. He threw for 7,271 yards and 76 touchdowns in high school while running for 775 yards and 13 TDs.
"They'd roll the ball out and (say), 'D.J., make a play,'?" Ludwig said. "There will be a little more structure here."
Ludwig said Gillins' high school coaches refer to him as a "gym rat," which has also proved true in his brief time on campus.
"He knocks on my door every day," Ludwig said. "That's the kind of guy you want."
Ludwig thinks he can have a big impact on Gillins' mechanics, which is why getting him to enroll early was crucial.
"He hasn't had a lot of quarterback coaching in his life," Ludwig said. "He's got all of the raw talent to do it. He can really spin it."
Houston spent last season as the No. 3 quarterback and could be ready to make a big jump. He has a strong arm and can make all of the throws, with a quick release and loads of confidence. He's not considered a strong runner, though he played in an option offense in high school at De La Salle in Concord, Calif.
McEvoy, 6-6, 223, opened eyes after moving to safety last season and playing well at the position in the second half of the season. He is determined to give quarterback another shot. That's the position he was recruited to play last season as a junior-college transfer from Arizona Western.
He didn't have time to get comfortable in the offense and the plan was to try him at receiver. That was foiled by a wrist injury that required surgery late in preseason camp. After that, he moved to free safety and flourished.
"He looked so much more comfortable (at quarterback) when he came to us in bowl prep," Ludwig said. "He was a different guy. A big part of that is just being more settled in Wisconsin and knowing the program and how we operate.
"Ask him, he'd tell you he's throwing it the best he's ever thrown it right now, as the guys are working out on their own."
McEvoy didn't get a chance to show off his running skills at quarterback last season. Ludwig said that gets added later, usually after a starter is picked.
But McEvoy flashed his speed, athleticism and competitiveness at safety.
Ludwig was asked if there was anything he saw McEvoy do at safety that will translate to playing quarterback.
"Yeah, the way he went out and competed and the way he hit," he said. "You just don't know (about the hitting). He wasn't doing that in my (quarterback) drills. He's a competitive guy."
Senger, 5-10, 175 pounds, is another dual threat who was named Offensive Scout Player of the Year last season. He's a bit of a long shot, but the coaches love his leadership potential, athleticism and personality.
And don't forget Stave, who put up decent numbers last season, throwing for 2,494 yards and 22 touchdowns while completing 61.9 percent of his throws. His problems were too many interceptions (13) and too many missed throws with open receivers.
"I saw improvement, but not enough," Ludwig said. "We want more.
"If you look at it, we need two more completions a game out of Joel. If he does that, he's throwing 68 percent completions on the year. That's a whole 'nother level."
Stave completed nine of 13 passes for 80 yards and two touchdowns before injuring his right shoulder late in the third quarter of the Capital One Bowl.
Until that point, Ludwig was encouraged by how Stave played in the game.
"We made some adjustments in the bowl prep with some of the things we were doing," Ludwig said. "I think he took to it well.
"He's working on his feet (last month); he's not throwing just yet, but he's continuing to work on some of those things. I anticipate, as does he, great improvement from a year ago."

Fridays From the Frontline
Jun 27, 2014 | 0 comments
Hello and welcome to Fridays From the Frontline, Clear Admit's weekly summation of the best of the b-school blogosphere. This week, UCLA Anderson welcomes a group of incoming MBA students and bloggers, and current applicants discuss what's involved in staying focused on the admissions process during the summer.
Zafeer Khan Anderson '16 shares his journey from Bangladesh to pursuing the MBA in Sunny California. Classmate Asher Kurland is enjoying happy hours with fellow admits in Brooklyn. Nikhil George Punnoose '16 is moving away from living on oil rigs, to learning about the business side of production, and James Huntington rounds out the introduction of Anderson '16 bloggers by describing his reasons for selecting Anderson. Chief among them are the school's family friendly policies, and the Joint Ventures Club. We wish all of these new student bloggers all the best as they embark on their MBA journey together!
Anderson students, past, present and future have been active this week, with MBAReApplicant continuing the 'Why Anderson' series, featuring comments from current students and alumni. MBAonMyMind has started a tally of schools to consider, GrantMeAdmission outlines a typical 'day in the life of an MBA applicant' which is anything but 'typical! GrantMeAdmission is also celebrating 10,000 views on the blog, with a post that lists some of his favorite bloggers.
And that's all the news for this week's edition of Fridays From the Frontline. As we have finally reached the official start of summer, we on the East Coast of the United States are enjoying the warm weather and the slower pace of MBA admissions. We also hope that current applicants continue to update us with information about statuses and future plans, and that current students and recent grads also update their blogs with summer activities, or as they transition into post MBA careers.

The Matriculation and Secondary Education Certificate (MATSEC) Examinations Board was established in 1991 by the Senate and the Council of the University of Malta. The Board was entrusted with the development of an examination system to replace the GCE Ordinary and Advanced level examinations set by UK examination boards. The new board also took over the function of the Matriculation Board which also used to set examinations at Ordinary and Advanced level in a number of subjects. Indeed, the MATSEC Board holds records of Matriculation examinations that go back to the late 19th century.

For years, the names rolled off your tongue so effortlessly that it felt like you were on a first-name basis with them. Everything felt so warm and reassuring when discussing certain Big East coaches that mentioning them in the same breath as death and taxes was perfectly acceptable.
Nothing is certain but death and taxes ŌĆō along with Jim Boeheim coaching at Syracuse. Ditto Jim Calhoun at Connecticut, Rick Pitino at Louisville and Mike Brey at Notre Dame.
Harkening back to when the Big East took flight in the early 1980s, the association between schools and the men who patrolled the sidelines in splendid suits ŌĆō or in Lou CarneseccaŌĆÖs case, flamboyant sweaters ŌĆō was just as prevalent.
You couldnŌĆÖt speak about Georgetown without mentioning John Thompson. The same holds true with Villanova and Rollie Massimino, along with St. JohnŌĆÖs and Carnesecca. All three leaders of young men helped to bring credence and acclaim to their respective institutions of higher learning.
They also played a substantial hand in creating the kind of coaching cache that helped rocket the Big East into national prominence.
Yes, the ŌĆÖ85 Final Four will always be remembered as THE moment when the league that Dave Gavitt built from the ground up left the college basketball landscape little choice but to pay attention. One conference sending three representatives to the sportŌĆÖs crowning event will do that, but what Thompson, Massimino and Carnesecca did in guiding their respective squads was to help create the perfect salt-to-pepper ratio that would serve as a guide for those Big East mentors who would eventually blossom into worthy heirs.
What Thompson, Massimino and Carnesecca did was bring a rock star mentality to the Big East coaching realm. The trio turned winning games and embracing the spotlight into an art form. Their personalities filled every arena they walked into, and the same belief could be directly applied to Boeheim, Calhoun and Pitino.
ŌĆ£The evolution of college basketball has changed that the one constant is the coach. HeŌĆÖs the image,ŌĆØ longtime college basketball analyst Bill Raftery explained. ŌĆ£This isnŌĆÖt denigrating the presidents at these schools, but the head coaches are the image for the school.ŌĆØ
When the reconfigured Big East gathered for Media Day in New York City recently, there was no Boeheim, Calhoun or Pitino on hand. Left behind in their wake is a collection of coaches that if you break them down individually have carved out successful reputations in their own right.
Yet when youŌĆÖre competing against coaches where ŌĆ£Hall of FameŌĆØ and ŌĆ£national championshipsŌĆØ appear on the r├®sum├®, itŌĆÖs easy to cave to peer pressure and focus on the select few who have driven the bus for so long.
ŌĆ£I think we thought we were at the top already,ŌĆØ said GeorgetownŌĆÖs John Thompson III with a laugh.
With Boeheim, Brey and PittsburghŌĆÖs Jamie Dixon now in the ACC, Pitino in the American Athletic Conference and Calhoun in his second year of retirement, the Big East coaching spotlight now shines on Thompson, Jay Wright (Villanova), Steve Lavin (St. JohnŌĆÖs) and Buzz Williams (Marquette).
Certainly itŌĆÖs a good foundation to build upon considering Thompson and Wright have been to the Final Four, while Williams fell one game shy of reaching that aforementioned Holy Grail last year. Lavin was a regular ŌĆ£March MadnessŌĆØ participant when he held the top job at UCLA.
You could have added even more luster to the current configuration had Butler University prepared to set sail in the Big East with Brad Stevens still at the helm. Alas, Stevens was able to parlay back-to-back national championship game appearances into a head-coaching job with the Boston Celtics.
ŌĆ£Did it hurt our league that Brad Stevens left? Yeah, because heŌĆÖs a really good coach,ŌĆØ Williams stated.
Moving forward and not fretting over whoŌĆÖs no longer in the fold is what the coaches in the ŌĆ£newŌĆØ Big East plan to do.
ŌĆ£If you look around the room, I think the quality of the coaching is outstanding,ŌĆØ said Thompson III. ŌĆ£Yeah, we lost some Hall of Fame coaches, but I donŌĆÖt think too many teams want to go up against the guys in this room.ŌĆØ
Thompson III then provided the secret ingredient as to why stalwart head coaches such as his dad, Boeheim and Calhoun were able to scale the lofty heights of coaching success.
ŌĆ£If you look at the coaches who have stayed at one institution, it helps create aura,ŌĆØ he said.
It also creates easy recognition. You can mention Georgetown, but also make sure to include that Thompson III is preparing for his 10th season at the university. You say Villanova, where Wright has been for the past dozen seasons.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs a new era, but there are still established coaches like John and Jay,ŌĆØ ProvidenceŌĆÖs Ed Cooley pointed out.
Time will tell if history repeats itself regarding the coaching-association game that for so long has served as the hallmark of Big East hoops. Rest assured that the pieces are in place that someday, some expansion talk regarding recognizable Big East coaches could be in order.
ŌĆ£In the old days, we started using first names on the air. John, Lou, Rollie, everyone knew who they were,ŌĆØ Raftery said. ŌĆ£With exposure, these guys will start to become first-name guys. John Thompson III has a legacy with his dad, but Jay will be Jay and Buzz will be Buzz.ŌĆØ
Added Williams, ŌĆ£It will be interesting to see who in this room blossoms into those guys. Somebody is going to.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£There are Hall of Fame coaches in this room just waiting to happen,ŌĆØ Cooley expressed.

Robert Madison Farrar, Jr., 79, passed away on January 28, 2014 at his residence in Starkville,MS. He was a Research Forester with the U.S. Forest Service. He received his B.S. Degree with honors from Auburn University, his Masters from Yale University, and his Doctorate from the University of Georgia.  He was an avid outdoorsman.
Success was on the side of the Starkville Academy Volunteers Friday night.
In what some might not have called the prettiest game, the Volunteers defeated Washington School 43-31.
"I just thought it was ugly," Starkville Academy coach Mark Alexander said. "It got to be an ugly game, a Helter Skelter game, and that sort of played a part in it."

Travel like a local: Your Neighbourhood Guide to the Cape Town CBD by Day
Rob PetersThe CBD is the heartbeat of every major city and it is no different for Cape Town. The city centre is the pulse of the Mother City, providing the lifeblood of the surrounding areas. It is a melting pot of diversity and culture, a smorgasbord of historical influences and a place like no other on earth. If you really want to get underneath the skin of Cape Town, you need to start in the city.
Travel like a local: Your neighbourhood guide to DurbanvilleDurbanville is not your average Cape Town neighbourhood. There is so much more going on than the daily school run. This is a neighbourhood filled with great experiences for everyone to enjoy.
Take Advantage of Winter in Cape Town
Jenny MorrisI'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth and I love to get a quality deal at a good price. My working season is all year round, but it does slow down ever so slightly in winter and that is when I get to take advantage of all the specials on offer.
Your #lovecapetown weekend: What's on from Wednesday 01 July to Sunday 05 July, 2015
Rob PetersWith a wealth of natural beauty, unrivalled mountain trails and sublime backdrops, it's not hard to understand why Mother City locals spend the majority of their time outdoors and on the go.

What's new in Cape Town
The festive season in Cape Town saw quite a few newbies pop up in the city, much to our delight. Here is a list of the latest and greatest in food, fashion and frozen yoghurt.
Bree: Cape Town's hippest street
What's fast becoming known as the hippest street in Cape Town, Bree Street is where you will find a hive of artisan activity. And if you're a food lover, there's plenty to sample here too, from burgers to gourmet pizza, craft beer and cupcakes. As one of the main arteries of the city, this street is building a reputation as the retail, culinary and design centre of the city. Here is a list of just a few of the gems:

Trinity in Green Point brings clubbing revival to Cape Town
After three years in the making, Trinity in Green Point has opened its doors to the public. Now that these Bennett Street doors open, they certainly won't be closing – not until 04h00 every night of the week, that is. I attended the launch party last week and can't remember when I last saw so many partygoers out on Wednesday night. Every nook and cranny of the club was teeming with beautiful people.
Cast your vote for Table Mountain
Photo courtesy Damien du Toit With Cape Town in the global spotlight after the World Cup, what better way to celebrate than to have Table Mountain named a New7Wonder of Nature? Many visitors who pour through our city have heard of Table Mountain before their arrival, but seeing it firsthand keeps the Mother City firmly planted in their hearts. While Capetonians might take our surrounds for granted at times, it is the mountain that grounds us and keeps nature tangibly part of everyday life in the city.
"Spring It On" Constantia
While summer feels like it is well and truly here, there are still rumours of a slight chill expected before the official arrival of summer in November. What then is one to do with October? One could call it the brief and fleeting spring season; where the itch to remove the winter layers and revel in the sun is equally matched by the need to cuddle up by the fire during bouts of rain and wind.

I am a educated, down to earth, laid back and compassionate man. Love the outdoors in the summer, beaches, hiking, canoeing, traveling,live music concerts and dancing. Latin Music is one of my favorites, Salsa dancing love it. In the winter you will find me on the snowy mountain tops getting my skiing on. I love winter just as much as summer. I keep in shape by running and going to the gym. Bike riding is fun too. I am very attentive, independent, caring, honest & loyal. No drama here, no games . I am intelligent, sympathetic to the needs of others, and I have a quick wit and love to laugh, and just really easy going. I know what I want and I am assertive and confident enough to go after it....I am looking to meet a beautiful caring woman with the intention of one day share my life with. As I continue the rest of the journey it would be nice to have a companion who can enjoy the essence of my being.
