About the Aggies: Heading into the NCAA Volleyball Tournament one might say the New Mexico State Aggies finished their volleyball season very strong. This would be an understatement after a shaky start to the 2013 season. Under Head Coach Mike Jordan, the Aggies started off their regular season with a 3-7 start in the first 10 matches. This is hardly the start you would expect from the defending WAC Champions.
The turning point in the season seemed to come during a tournament that NM State co-hosted with I-10 Rival UTEP in late September. The team beat Hampton (19-10), who also was also seeded in the NCAA Tournament, in a sloppy showing 3 sets to 1.
Almost like clockwork, the Aggies drastically improved in all areas on the court. As a team they had an overall hitting percentage of .227 and held teams to .137. After their 3-7 start, the Aggies seemed to be a different team completely as they finished the regular season 22-10 including a 14-2 record in the WAC; a team record that seeded them as the No. 1 seed going into the WAC tournament in Phoenix, Arizona.
The Aggies struggled a little bit against No. 4 seeded Idaho, but pulled out the match after a slow start (3-2). NM State saw four players earn double-doubles in the match (the most for the Aggies this season) with Taylor Livoti earning 28 assists and 10 digs. Bradley Nash had 10 kills and 23 digs, Stephanie Ziegler earned a career-high 18 kills and 23 digs and Ciara Brown had 31 assists and 11 digs.
New Mexico State then advanced to the championship match to face No. 2 seed Bakersfield. The team earned its second straight Western Athletic Conference Tournament title in straight sets (25-9, 25-12, 25-16) on Wednesday, Nov. 27 giving them an automatic bid for the NCAA Volleyball Tournament. Senior Desiree Scott was named the tournament's most valuable player. Senior Stephanie Ziegler, senior Ciara Brown and redshirt sophomore Bradley Nash each earned all-tournament honors.
The Aggies are led by WAC Player of the Year and WAC Tournament MVP Desiree Scott, who averages 2.62 kills on .372 hitting and 1.33 blocks per set. Scott and the rest of the Aggies will travel to San Diego, Calif., to face Arizona the first round of the NCAA Tournament at 5 p.m. (PT) this Friday, Dec. 6.
Arizona (20-12) earned an at-large bid out of the Pacific-12 Conference. The Wildcats tied for fifth in the Pac-12 with a 10-10 conference mark. Arizona is led by Madi Kingdon, who averages 4.38 kills and 3.19 digs per set.
This will be the seventh time Mike Jordan has taken the NM State Aggies have made the NCAA Tournament with a (1-6) record to date. The Aggies have had an upswing season to date, and they aren't finished just yet.
Aggies in the NCAA Tournament: The Aggies make their seventh NCAA appearance in school history this season. NM State is 1-6 all-time in the NCAA tournament, defeating St. Mary's in the first round of the tournament in 2008 for their lone victory. This will be the Aggies' second trip to San Diego of the tournament and the third time NM State has traveled to the state of California to play in the NCAA. NM State has faced seven different opponents in the NCAA Tournament, including Arizona this season. The Aggies have faced BYU twice in 2003 and 2012. Head coach Mike Jordan has been the coach for NM State all seven times the Aggies have qualified for the tournament. Four times the Aggies have entered the NCAA Tournament after winning its conference championship, twice as members of the Sun Belt in 2003 and 2004 and twice as members of the WAC in 2012 and 2013.
Year Opponent Result
2004 San Diego L
2006 Colorado L
2008 St. Mary's W
2008 California L
2013 Arizona ?
Record Watch: As the season nears its end senior Desiree Scott is still climbing to the top of NM State record books. Scott has a total of 360 block assists on her career and is close behind former Aggie middle, Jonna Steffens (1989-92) who is No. 3 on the all-time block assist list with 383.
With her second solo block of the match against Utah Valley, Thursday, Nov. 21, Scott reached the century mark in solo blocks. She is currently No. 5 on the all-time solo block list at NM State and is just the fifth player ever to reach 100 solo blocks in a career at NM State.
With Scott's ability to block her opponents at the net, Scott has tallied 460 total blocks in her career at NM State. This puts her just three total blocks behind Kim Oguh (2004-07) who is No. 3 on the all-time list with 463 in her career.
Scott is currently sitting in the No. 3 spot in the NM State record books with a .339 hitting percentage in her career since 2010.
Scouting the Wildcats: Arizona enters the tournament with an overall record of 20-12 after defeating in-state rival Arizona State in their final match of the year.

Penina Snuka runs the team's offense, while recording 1,137 assists while leading her team to a .214 team-hitting percentage.
Aggies against Arizona: NM State is 2-15 all-time against Arizona. The last time the Aggies faces U of A was on Sept. 18, 2010 with NM State falling 3-1 during the Wildcats' home tournament. NM State and the Wildcats first faced off on Nov. 15, 1974 in Albuquerque during an Intermountain Athletic Conference match. NM State defeated U of A on Nov. 21, 1975 in the IAIAW Regional under former coach Linda Koch. The other victory of the Wildcats came on Oct. 30, 1976 in Tucson.

Get a restraining order
Dorchester County Sheriffs deputies responded to a complaint of stalking Dec. 29, in North Charleston. The victim told police that she suspected her estranged husband had put a GPS tracker on her vehicle and had gone to a garage to get assistance locating it. The tracker was found attached to the gas tank. Deputies say they have been called to her aid four times from Dec. 25 to 29, and that she has, on several occasions, told them she is in fear of her life.
Her estranged husband told deputies, according to the incident report, he was too busy with his work schedule to meet with them to discuss the issue.
A family that drinks together
Dorchester County deputies responded to a report of a fight in progress, involving family members, on Fannie Dr., in Summerville Jan. 1. As the first deputy on scene began separating people, he quickly found himself surrounded by a small crowd of family members who were getting more and more hostile toward law enforcement, according to the incident report. As other deputies arrived, another, louder, commotion started in the side yard and deputies observed other deputies engaged in what appeared to be an active fight. More personnel arrived on scene to help get the situation under control. EMS was called for injuries to the two family members who started the fight. All family members smelled of alcohol, according to the report.
Apparently one of the family members had been issued two traffic citations earlier in the evening and the fight arose over who was going to pay for the citation. One person shoved the others head into the refrigerator and the fight erupted, the report stated.
Sawmill trail assault
Summerville Police responded to the Sawmill Branch trail Jan. 11 in response to an assault. The victim said he was walking along the trail when three black males approached him and told him to give them money. He described the subjects as 5-foot, 7-inches weighing 140 pounds. He could provide no further information as he was intoxicated, according to the incident report.
He told police he began yelling and fell to the ground and the subjects ran off toward the Evergreen subdivision.

The threat of a school bus driver strike has prompted Charleston County schools leader to express her concern for the students, families and drivers who could be affected.
The issue
What is the problem?Charleston County School District hired Durham School Services to employ its bus drivers and manage its bus routes. Durham has been negotiating a new employment contract with drivers since last summer, but theyve been unable to make a deal. Drivers agreed last week to authorize a strike if they cant reach an agreement.Whats next?Negotiations between Durham and the bus drivers union were scheduled for Monday and today. A deadline for a deal has not been set, but Durham has promised to come up with a contingency plan should drivers strike.
Charleston County School Superintendent Nancy McGinley has asked the company that employs the drivers, Durham School Services, to take whatever steps necessary to avoid the strike.
Our students cannot afford to miss any instructional time and families should not have the continued burden of worrying about safe and consistent transportation for their children, she wrote in a letter last week to Durham Chief Executive Officer David Duke.
Durham School Services employs more than 400 Charleston school bus drivers, and it hasnt been able to reach an agreement with them on a new employment contract. The biggest hang-up has been how much drivers should be paid.
The drivers union, Teamsters Local 509, agreed Jan. 15 in a 186-0 vote to authorize a strike if they are unsatisfied with the deal. Negotiations were scheduled for Monday and today.
Neither Durham nor the union would disclose how much drivers are being paid now, nor how much Durham has proposed raising their salaries. Durham officials said they prefer to negotiate privately rather than through the media.
While we are unable to meet demands for an increase many times above the national average, we remain both optimistic and determined a deal can be completed and look forward to our meetings with the union next week, said Carina Noble, a spokeswoman for Durham.
Noble said the company was disappointed to learn of the potential strike through the media and would do all it can to ensure Charleston students bus service is not interrupted.
L.D. Fletcher, president of the local union, said it was too early to say how much drivers make, but he promised to disclose that information when the time is right.
We dont have anything to hide, he said.
Bus drivers pay cant be obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request because it involves a private company and its employees. Durhams advertisements for drivers dont list pay ranges.
McGinley said in her letter she wanted to ensure drivers were treated fairly. Many are parents of local students and longtime community residents, and they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, she wrote.
Durham has promised to create a contingency plan should drivers strike, but McGinley wrote she would hate to see you bring in replacement drivers if a fair settlement can be reached with drivers who are loyal and care about children.
McGinley also wrote that she was troubled about drivers saying their repair requests are being ignored.
Fletcher said he was pleased with McGinleys letter and it was good for the district to put pressure on the company to negotiate a good and fair contract.
I think its the right thing for the district to do, he said.
Reach Diette Courrégé Casey at @Diette on Twitter or 937-5546.
The Teamsters Local 509 union, led by L.D. Fletcher, voted last week to authorize a strike if they are unhappy with the deal.×

India is unanimously recognized as one of the most powerful cricket teams in the world. The Indian National Cricket Team represents an esteemed cricket odyssey with excellent performances in all the 3 formats of cricket- Test, ODIs and Twenty20. In fact, India was the first T20 World Cup champion.
The Indian National Cricket Team has been honored with the much deserved 1st stature in the international ODI rankings while it ranks 2nd in both the Test and T20 rankings.

The maiden session of T20 World Cup (2007) had India fighting up to the semis & from there on it reached to the final match defeating Australia. The T20 World Cup 2007 final was played between archrivals India and Pakistan in which- as mentioned earlier- India emerged as the first champion of T20 World Cup.
The 2009 T20 World Cup saw India in Super 8 yet the team could not proceed further that season given its loss to South Africa. The following seasons (2010 & 2012) were not particularly hopeful for India as it couldn't get to the semis. However, in 2014 T20 World Cup, the Indian National team has already been selected for the Super 10 stage.

In architecture a pavilion (from French pavillon, from Latin papilio) has two primary meanings. It can refer to a free-standing structure sited a short distance from a main residence, whose architecture makes it an object of pleasure. Large or small, there is usually a connection with relaxation and pleasure in its intended use. A pavilion built to take advantage of a view is referred to as a gazebo.
In its other primary meaning, in a symmetrical range of buildings in the classical styles, where there is a main central block – the corps de logis – the wings may end in pavilions that are emphasized in some fashion, in order to provide a full stop to the composition, like a period at the end of a sentence.
Free-standing structures[edit]
Such pavilions may be small garden outbuildings, similar to a summer house or a kiosk. These were particularly popular in the 18th century and can be equated to the Italian casina, usually rendered in English "casino". These often resembled small classical temples and follies. A pool house by a swimming pool may have sufficient character and charm to be called a pavilion. By contrast, a free-standing pavilion can also be a far larger building such as the Royal Pavilion at Brighton, which is in fact a large oriental style palace; however, like its smaller namesakes, the common factor is that it was built for pleasure and relaxation.
A sports pavilion is usually a building adjacent to a sports ground used for changing clothes and often partaking of refreshments. Often it has a verandah to provide protection from the sun for spectators. The term pavilion is also used in stadia, especially baseball parks, to distinguish a typically single-decked, covered seating area from the more expensive seating area of the main grandstand and the less expensive seating area of the uncovered bleachers.
Classical architecture[edit]
In the Place des Vosges, Paris (1605–12), twin pavilions mark the centers of the north and south sides of the square (illustration, lower). They are named the Pavillon du Roi and the Pavillon de la Reine though no royal personage ever lived in the square. With their triple archways, they function like gatehouses that give access to the privileged space of the square. French gatehouses had been built in the form of such pavilions in the preceding century.
Other uses[edit]
In some areas, a pavilion is a place used for hunting. The "Pavillon de Galon" in Luberon, France is a typical 18th century aristocratic hunting pavilion. The pavilion, located on the site of an old Roman villa, includes a garden "à la française," which was used by the guests for receptions.
One of two pavilions at Place des Vosges, Paris, built 1605–1612
Ahmad Shahi Pavilion in the Niavaran Palace Complex, Tehran (19th century)
The wooden cricket pavilion at Leyton Cricket Ground in London, built in 1886
Musikpavillon at Bürkliplatz in Zürich, Switzerland, built in 1908
Island pavilion in the Chinese Garden, Zürich,
built in 1993

About the Game
Probable Starters
#Assists Per Game
Head Coach: Andy Landers
Series history vs. PC Georgia
Last Time Out...
Four Lady Bulldogs notched doubledigit scoring efforts as No. 10 Georgia defeated Rutgers, 57-51, Sunday in the season opener for both teams.
After trailing 12-8 early, Georgia utilized an 18-4 run to build a double-digit advantage at 26-16 with 4:17 left in the first half. A free throw from freshman Tiaria Griffin at the 11:14 mark gave the Lady Bulldogs a lead they would not relinquish the rest of the afternoon.
Georgia led 28-18 at the intermission before Rutgers opened the second stanza with a 9-1 surge to close the gap to 29-27. Following a timeout, Jasmine Hassell scored on a layup to push the lead back to four.
The contest was a one-possession game for the final occasion at 35-32 before Erika Ford scored five straight Georgia points to extend the margin to 40-34 just 1:18 later.
The Lady Bulldogs eventually worked their lead back to double digits twice before a pair of late threes from Rutgers.
Freshmen Contribute In Debuts
Georgia's freshman class played significant minutes in the Lady Bulldogs' season-opening win over Rutgers, a traditional NCAA Tournament participant.
Shacobia Barbee started and played 21 minutes, while Merritt Hempe was the first player off the Georgia bench at the 16:38 mark of the first half.
All told, Barbee, Hempe, Marjorie Butler and Tiaria Griffin logged 49 minutes - just shy of 25 percent of the Lady Bulldogs' total playing time in the contest.
"I would like for them to play more than they did today," Andy Landers said. "We have a freshman class that's going to be able to help us; there's no question about that. You saw glimpses of that today. They'll grow and mature as we move along and in another month or so they'll look totally different than today."
Landers closing in on 800 at UGA
Andy Landers enters tonight's game with Presbyterian just four victories shy of securing his 800th win at the University of Georgia.
The Lady Bulldogs will have four home games over the next eight days, making next Tuesday's matchup with Savannah State the earliest potential reaching of the milestone.
Landers' career tally of "Ws" in Athens now warrants expansion from just women's basketball to NCAA Division I basketball overall. The Lady Bulldogs' first - and still only - full-time women's basketball head coach, Landers will soon become the eighth Division I coach - men's or women's - to secure 800 victories at a single school as oulined in the column to the right. Active coaches are in bold-faced type.

As of March 2014, we will no longer offer the .017" 2-Ply "Business Card Thick" veneer option.
The 2-Ply veneer option we offer now is the same thickness of what used to be our .025" "Postcard Thick" veneer, with the price of our old .017" "Business Card Thick" veneer. Ultimately, this is more cost savings to you, as it also streamlines the veneer selection process.

Two northern Indiana organizations have selected California-based URS Corp. (NYSE: URS) to develop a strategic plan for mass transit. The more than $500,000 initiative will aim to find ways to enhance the region's connectivity to Chicago.
April 2, 2013
News Release
CROWN POINT, Ind. - The Northwest Indiana Regional Development Authority (RDA) and the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District (NICTD) have chosen URS Corporation to develop a strategic business plan for commuter transit in northern Indiana.
The two organizations will split the estimated $550,000 cost of the plan, which is expected to be complete in early 2014. The RDA Board of Directors approved funding for its half of the study during its quarterly board meeting today. This follows NICTD, whose Board signed off on the project in late March.
"Connectivity to Chicago is key to the economic health of the region," said RDA President and CEO Bill Hanna. "This plan will help us to maximize the job creation and economic development potential of the South Shore line."
Mark Yagelski, NICTD Board Chairman and LaPorte County Council President, said that NICTD is looking forward to having the RDA/URS team help chart a course for future strategic investment that will enhance Northwest Indiana's access to Chicago.
Items and issues that URS will address as part of the strategic plan include, but are not limited to:
-Strategies for increased ridership
-Transit-Oriented Development
-Access to airports and recreational destinations
-Public/private partnerships
-Expansion of service
About the Northwest Indiana Regional Development Authority
Established in 2005 through a bipartisan effort including Governor Mitchell E. Daniels, Congressman Peter J. Visclosky, key state legislators, and local elected officials, the RDA is quasi-governmental development entity entrusted to make public investment decisions within a regional framework for supporting catalytic infrastructure projects and inducing private sector investment. Its mission is to be a catalyst for transforming the economy and quality of life for Northwest Indiana. For more information, visit www.rdatransformation.com or www.in.gov/rda

More Information
The church will meet rave-up jam band action when sacred-steel guitar wizard Robert Randolph & the Family Band hit downbeat Thursday at Sam's Burger Joint. Randolph comes out of the House of God Church, where the steel guitar has long been as important to worship music as the piano and the organ. The upbeat, positive soul and revved-up gospel of Randolph and the Family Band have endeared them to an array of fans, spiritual and secular. His new CD, "Robert Randolph Presents: The Slide Brothers," features Randolph and other players from the sacred-steel tradition.

Product description
Winner of the 2010 Richard Asher Prize for best undergraduate textbook Oxford Cases in Medicine and Surgery teaches students a hypothesis-driven, logical step-by-step diagnostic approach to common patient presentations. This approach mirrors that used by successful clinicians on the wards, challenging students with questions at each stage of a case (history-taking, examination, investigation, management). In tackling these questions, students learn to integrate their existing knowledge and apply it to a real-life scenario from start to finish. Each chapter focuses on a common presenting symptom (e.g. chest pain). By starting with a symptom, as doctors do in reality, students learn to draw on their knowledge of different physiological systems - for example, cardiology, respiratory, gastroenterology - at the same time. All the major presenting symptoms in general medicine and surgery are covered, together with a broad range of pathologies. This book is an essential resource for all medicine students, and provides a modern, well-rounded introduction to life on the wards. For SBAs and more visit the book's Online Resource Centre. "This is a wonderful book! It uses cas histories to guide through all major medical and surgical scenarios, giving an initial presenting complaint and then working enough each case giving differentials, explaining why each is more likely, before going on to thoroughly describe what investigations are needed and why. It is a very fun and realistic book. I thoroughly, thoroughly recommend it to all medical students - and the sooner in you training the better." Caroline Rance, 5th Year Medical Student, Southampton Medical School

Review quote
"The perfect adjunct to any textbook of clinical medicine. In the months before finals it is as essential as the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine Oxford Cases is clearly presented and helpful for young doctors learning about diagnosis. Diagnosis is often a skill that new doctors find difficult. This well designed and logically organised book describes diagnostic reasoning in the assessment of patients presenting with 29 common symptoms, from headache to leg ulcer. As a GP who graduated in 1977 I also found the book helpful in reviewing my knowledge and learning about modern practical medicine. Dr Stephenson, King's College School of Medicine, and member of The Richard Asher Prize judging panel This book is not like the other boring textbooks out there, and really entices the readers to think and challenge themselves. This book has improved my history taking skills 10-fold. All my friends want to know what my secret is! Kamalpreet Singh Cheema, 4th year media at Leicester Medical School It basically mirrors bedside learning on the wards and is a fantastic tool, whether you are preparing for Phase 1 OSCEs, starting clinic rotation or preparing for your finals.

Report: Brett Brown being urged not to take Sixers' head coaching job
Aug 10, 2013, 9:30 AM EDT
The Philadelphia 76ers took a long, convoluted route to finding the man they wanted to replace former head coach Doug Collins. The man they selected might not take the job however, as ESPN's Marc Stein reports that San Antonio Spurs assistant Brett Brown is being urged to pass on the Sixers' offer.
Turning down a head coaching job would be a big decision for an assistant that wasn't even the top guy on his own staff — that honor goes to new Atlanta Hawks head coach Mike Budenholzer — but it could pay off for him in the long run.
The Sixers aren't expected to be competitive in their first season under new general manager Sam Hinkie and are widely considered the favorites for a top pick in next year's loaded NBA Draft. If Brown endures a sixty-loss season, the first-year head coach would be starting his stateside career in quite the hole and without much to add to his resume if he's canned for a higher-profile coach next season. That could put Brown in the company of a guy like Mike Dunlap, who coached an already bad Charlotte Bobcats team to a 21-61 record last season before being replaced after just one year on the job. Kevin O'Neill, Sam Vincent, Quinn Buckner, Jeff Bower, Johnny McCarthy, John Wetzel, Leonard Hamilton and fellow candidate Michael Curry were also canned after their first season as an NBA head coach — and none of them have been able to get another head job since.
If the Sixers aren't going to give Brown enough money and job security to prove that they want him for the long haul — and not just as a cheap Band-Aid while they rebuild their roster — it likely isn't going to be worth his time when considering he should have more opportunities next summer. Because, if Philadelphia decides they don't want to commit to a long-term deal with Brown this season, what's stopping the Australian national team coach (he coached in the Australian league for years before coming to the Spurs) from waiting and applying for the job next summer … when the team's prospects are better and he's got a year of top experience under Gregg Popovich in San Antonio?
It's an interesting spot for both sides: the Sixers don't necessarily want to win this year and likely aren't interested in committing too much to a head coach that they want to lose in his first season. But, if they really think a guy like Brown is their coach of the future, they'll have to open their pocketbooks to make sure the risk of starting off really bad doesn't scare him away.
- tcclark - Aug 10, 2013 at 10:34 AM
They wouldn't have spent 4 months looking for a bandaid. This is a guy with player development experience. they want him to grow with the team.
- ProBasketballPundit - Aug 10, 2013 at 10:49 AM
I think they absolutely would spend 4 months looking for a bandaid. If Philadelphia was series about hiring a good head coach they would have gone after some of the top coaching candidates. Now they're skimming the bottom, looking for a guy they can easily forget after they fire him next summer.
- tcclark - Aug 10, 2013 at 2:10 PM
You know who they could easily hire and not even have to fire him next summer because his contract is up? Michael Curry. He's essentially been their head coach all summer, coached the summer league team, has head coaching experience, and would be gone at the end of the year anyway. You don't spend four months looking for a coach, interview everyone known to man, go through a second round of interviews, and then hire someone who isn't already under contract, if you're just planning to fire him at the end of the year. Throughout this whole process, they've said they want to hire someone who can grow with the team. Brian Shaw wasn't going to Philly nor was Lionel Collins. They were looking for a good assistant who specializes in player development. That's Brett Brown. They know they aren't going to be good this year. They don't want to be good this year. There are very few reasons they would WANT to fire him at the end of the year.
- tfoz5150 - Aug 10, 2013 at 5:14 PM
They've been linked to him since the beginning of their search. I do feel though they want to tank this year, so he would have to be onboard with that.
- antistratfordian - Aug 11, 2013 at 12:08 AM
I believe the Sixers are doing everything in their power to tank this year. They're off to a great start.
- shanelsweet - Aug 10, 2013 at 11:43 AM
Must be nice to have the media helping to negotiate your contract. Now Philly has to offer him a multi-year guarantee or risk having to sell a "cheap band-aid" coaching hire to their fans and players. Nobody wants to watch a band-aid or be managed by one.
- mophatici - Aug 10, 2013 at 11:53 AM
"That could Brown in the company of a guy like Mike Dunlap"
What? Is Dunlap a toaster oven now?
- abchome - Aug 10, 2013 at 12:19 PM
Just hire Allen Iverson and get a guaranteed mission completion.
- pxeeks - Aug 10, 2013 at 2:57 PM
It's an NBA head coaching gig.. Right?!!? What's the trouble? Still getting millions. Top of Mount Rushmore in coaching position. No brainer
- onlyavoice - Aug 11, 2013 at 9:09 AM
LOL, The Sixers Want To Tank It This Season.
It's A Lottery Team, What Choice Do They Have Except To
Go To The Lottery.
- pukpokito - Aug 11, 2013 at 8:15 PM
hire a temp for a year.Then have an agreement internally with this coach that they'll hire him next year or however you want to arrange it with him. I would go for Lionel Hollins next summer too if this does not work out.

St Mirren striker Esmael Goncalves admits he still does not know if he will be waving goodbye to the Paisley club's adoring supporters this summer.
The on-loan Rio Ave frontman has enjoyed a sensational short-term stint in Scotland since arriving from Portugal in January.
The 21-year-old struck just seven minutes into his debut in the Scottish Communities League Cup semi-final victory over Clydesdale Bank Premier League champions Celtic.
Then he bagged another goal as the Buddies overcame Hearts 3-2 in the final to secure their first major trophy for 26 years.
All in all, Goncalves has struck six times in 11 outings for Danny Lennon's men but that form has convinced his paymasters in his homeland to recall him once his loan spell is up and try to cash in on his impressive figures.
Lennon admitted yesterday, however, that he has not given up hope of securing another loan spell and the former Nice attacker admits his future destination is uncertain.
Asked if he was preparing for his final four games in black and white, Goncalves told Press Association Sport: "It's the last four games of the season - after that, I don't know.
"If the opportunity was there to stay, I'd like that because I have really enjoyed my time in Scotland. But all I know is that Rio Ave want to sell me.
"You never know what could happen. I'm not sure about another loan deal but if they told me to come back here to St Mirren, I'd be happy. The fans really like me and I feel good here.
"If I go, though, I will miss Scotland, and especially the St Mirren fans. I really love the St Mirren fans."
Goncalves returns to the Saints line-up for tomorrow's SPL trip to Hibernian's Easter Road having sat out games against Kilmarnock and Dundee through suspension.
The Portuguese striker was banned retrospectively after the Scottish Football Association used television evidence to convict him of diving to win a penalty against Celtic in a 1-1 league draw last month.
But despite accepting the charge, the player today pleaded his innocence.
"It was difficult to sit in the stand last week against Dundee," said Goncalves after missing the 2-1 defeat at St Mirren Park. "I was dying to be out on the pitch with the boys. The team was losing and I could do nothing to help them.
"I was surprised when they suspended me because I have never seen that decision in any other country. I have played in France and Portugal and I've never seen that before.
"For me, the Celtic player touched me but the federation didn't think so. I accepted the decision, I didn't want to contest it because I didn't know how the system works and perhaps I would miss more than the two games I was banned for. Maybe they might have made it longer."
Dundee's win in Paisley closed the gap separating the bottom club and Saints to just 10 points with 12 still to play for.
But a win over William Hill Scottish Cup finalists Hibernian tomorrow will confirm safety for St Mirren and send the Dark Blues down.
"I'm not worried about being relegated," said Goncalves. "We will win one of our games. If it is not this week, we will win one of the others."
The first opportunity to kill off the spectre of demotion comes in Leith but Goncalves is wary of the home side despite a slide down the table that has seen them drop from first place in November to their current slot in ninth.
He said: "I just found out Hibs were top of the table earlier in the season but now they are in the bottom six. That can happen to any team.
"It's sad for Hibs but they are in the cup final now and that can save their season. They will be confident and we must be ready."

Ambari/Hadoop Listening on Two Networks?
Login to create new topics or reply. | New User Registration
This topic contains 0 replies, has 1 voice, and was last updated by William Lu 1 year ago.
Would it be possible for Ambari and other Hadoop components to listen on two or more networks? For example, a Hadoop node svr1.domain.name has two addresses: 10.1.2.3 and 184.108.40.206, is there a way so that, for a given port (say, 50030), it can receive and process requests on all three below?
I am asking out of necessity. Depending on which network the user is on (and the corresponding DNS server), a FQDN like svr1.domain.name may resolve to either 10.1.2.3 or 184.108.40.206. Currently, all requests to 188.8.131.52:50030 are not serviced. Also, once svr1.domain.name:50030 is resolved to 188.8.131.52:50030, the user won't get to that server port.
Please help. Thanks!

TABOR CITY, NC (WWAY) — Another strange chapter in the R.C. Soles saga. Tabor City Police say the former senator got into a couple of fights with Allen "Frog" Strickland over the weekend.
Police say the men showed up at the police department yesterday and said Saturday night Strickland hit Soles in the back leaving a mark and that Soles had bitten Strickland on the arm.
They also said Sunday morning Strickland showed up at Soles's office, where the senator hit him with an umbrella and Strickland kicked in the door to Soles's car.
Both men refused to swear out warrants for the others' arrest.

Rumor Control: The Craziest, Most Outrageous, Unbelievable Rumors Of 2012- By Bossip Staff Categories: Multi, News, Originals
Craziest Rumors Of 2012The Internet world is full of rumors. It's what makes the net go 'round. 2012 was full of crazy rumors from real-life Olivia Popes to illegitimate kids nobody could prove. We're here to count down all the insanity and see if any of these rumors actually got resolved. Take a look and find out.
Kerry Washington Wants Obama - There was a rumor that Michelle Obama had to keep Barack away from Kerry Washington because she wanted to chop him down so bad. Sounds like they were just promoting Scandal if you ask us.
LeBron Is Going To LA - LeBron James' contract is up in a couple of years and there was a rumor he was heading to Los Angeles to be the next franchise star there.
Trey Songz Is Kissy - This pic allegedly of Trey Songz and some dude making kisses spread around the net. It's not the first time Trey had these sort of claims come his way.
Draya and Breezy - There was the rumor she was getting chopped down by him and that she was always trying to get trifectas popping off.
Drake Leaving Young Money - We get these rumors every few months. But 2012 had Drizzy leaving YMCMB for who knows what.
Barack and Michelle Are On The Rocks - Rumor had it they couldn't get along after a rough year and barely speak. We don't see that happening.

As New Year's Eve approaches we start to think about how to reorganize our lives, how to 'do better', to 'eat right', etc. An easy step toward starting the New Year right is to put your home in order. Simplify. Start by taking down heavy window coverings and replace them with simple shades. Natural light in the kitchen is essential; you spend a lot of time there. Shades offer a privacy treatment and still allow plenty of light. One example of an attractive pleated shade are the Lewis Hyman Sun Solar Shades. They are energy efficient, and reduce cooling costs and block the sun while still letting in air and light.
Too much direct sunlight is also an issue in kitchens, making them hot and unpleasant to work in. Simple wood blinds or woven wood shades, like the Bamboo shades from Lewis Hyman are of the highest quality and will add a touch of the tropics to your decor. They come in several colors and styles to choose from, If you need to add more privacy, just add a roman shade privacy liner to keep our prying eyes and light.
The kitchen typically has lots of straight lines- the cabinets, the appliances, the counters – try adding a window treatment with soft curves to open the space up, especially in a small kitchen. Arching a valance is a good option, especially over the sink where we spend too much of our time. Curved curtain rods can not only be hard to find they can be a challenge to have custom made. Since most windows are not the same it requires a company that knows what they are doing to get things made right. Continental Window Fashions specializes in custom bending and curving of curtain rods. Traverse rods for bay windows are functional and serve their purpose but putting up a decorative curved rod changes the look from ordinary to amazing.
Next time our New Year's reboot will change up the windows in one of the harder rooms in the house – the powder room! Get your tape measure ready, there's a lot to do.

With apologies to Paul Simon:
Ever feel like you — and the rest of us — are slip-sliding away?
That sinking sensation was underscored for some Post and Courier readers Tuesday by this front-page news from esteemed colleague David Slade:
"On Monday a sinkhole large enough to swallow a car opened in Dorchester County on rural, state-maintained Wire Road, near the Orangeburg County line. Meanwhile, S.C. Department of Transportation crews continued to work on repairing an equally large sinkhole on Interstate 26 in Berkeley County that was discovered July 5."
Equally large as in "about 10 feet deep and at least 6 feet wide."
Last Friday, that I-26 sinkhole forced a lane closure that backed traffic up for 7 miles.
A tough way to go
But hey, getting stuck in a gridlock rut beats being buried alive by a 60-by-30-foot sinkhole. An extraordinarily hard-luck Tampa-area man suffered that grisly fate on Feb. 28 when he — and his house — were sucked into eternal oblivion.
Much closer to home, I-26 was a congested mess before those sinkholes appeared, and the new port terminal at the old Charleston Navy Base will only add to its bumper-to-bumper prospects.
Plus, as if DOT officials didn't have enough to worry about with our state's dangerously underfunded, increasingly decaying road system, they have figuratively wandered into the deep woods of controversy in their quest to cut trees in the I-26 median from Summerville to I-95.
Nature lover Mark Sanford, our new (and old) 1st District congressman, has even joined the ranks of interstate-greenery-scenery defenders who oppose that DOT plan.
And remember, sinkholes don't just swallow pavement, vehicles, houses and people.
Sinkholes swallow trees.
Thus, sinkhole reality is deeply depressing.
Yet sinkhole symbolism can be a downright downer too.
So can the way art has long imitated life — and vice versa — both above and under the ground.
Recall Dante Alighieri's "Inferno" and other frightful fictional (let's hope) specters of the netherworld.
For instance, in 1961's "Mole Men vs. the Sons of Hercules," mighty Maciste (muscle man Mark Forest) must summon all his strength to liberate himself and hundreds more from "wheel of woe" servitude imposed by subterranean albino mutants.
Maciste prevails, in part, by luring some gullible mole men into the daylight.
Back in our own modern realm, sunshine laws serve a similarly positive purpose by illuminating public awareness of government's frequently low-down machinations.
Still, it's daunting to know that even heroic powerhouses like Maciste, Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and Ultraman have found mole-type creatures challenging adversaries.
And back again in our so-called real world, real moles do a lot of damage to a lot of yards in these parts by constructing vast, grass-killing tunnel systems.
Watch your step
Back to sinkholes: If those harrowing Lowcountry hollows don't alarm you, how about the massive chasm between federal spending and federal revenues?
As of Wednesday, our record national debt was $16.74 trillion — and steeply climbing.
And how do we stop digging ourselves ever lower into a bottomless pit of despair over proliferating futilities — both collective and individual?
Well, we could start by not constantly gazing into the abyss.
Instead, try looking upward — and onward — more often.
But every now and then, look downward too.
Otherwise, you might fall into a sinkhole.

Jungle Boogie
|"Jungle Boogie"
7" Japan vinyl
|Single by Kool & the Gang
|from the album Wild and Peaceful
|Jungle Boogie
|North, South, East, West
|November 24, 1973
|Kool & the Gang, Gene Redd
"Jungle Boogie" is a funk song recorded by Kool & the Gang for their 1973 album Wild and Peaceful.[1] It scored number four as a single and became very popular in nightclubs.[2] Billboard ranked it as the No. 12 song for 1974.[3]
The song's spoken main vocal was performed by the band's roadie Don Boyce. An instrumental version of the tune with an overdubbed flute part and additional percussion instruments titled "Jungle Jazz" appeared on the album Spirit of the Boogie. The song is noted for the Tarzan yell heard at the song's end and the grunting, panting, and the scatting heard throughout.
In popular culture[edit]
"Jungle Boogie" and "Jungle Jazz" have been repeatedly sampled in subsequent popular music. For example, samples are used in EPMD's 1988 album Strictly Business, Beastie Boys' 1989 release "Hey Ladies", Madonna's 1992 top ten success "Erotica", Janet Jackson's 1994 top ten single "You Want This" and M/A/R/R/S' "Pump Up the Volume" in 1987.
The song was featured in Quentin Tarantino's 1994 film, Pulp Fiction.[4] It is used in the Xbox 360 Kinect game, Dance Central and for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 downloadable game Rock Band Blitz. 24-7 Spyz covered this song on their first album, Harder Than You.
The French performed this song in Disney's 2004 direct-to-video animated film The Lion King 1½. It was also featured on the soundtrack album for the Disney TV series That's So Raven. The Chipmunks and The Chipettes cover this song in the Limited Edition of the Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked: Music from the Motion Picture album.
The "get down, get down" part of the song's intro was featured in the American Dad! episode, A Jones for a Smith. It plays whenever Stan Smith sees an object that he can use to score more crack cocaine (which he initially mistook for cold medicine).
The song is featured in the 2006 comedy film Beerfest.
The song's structure and sound was borrowed by WWE's composer Jim Johnston in the song "Somebody Call My Momma," originally used as entrance music by Ernest Miller and currently used by Brodus Clay and his tag team, Tons of Funk.
Eagles of Death Metal used the song as intro music to their live festival gigs during their 2012/13 tour.
The Roots often cover the song during live performances.

President Obama's "American Jobs Act" proposes far more than the $300 billion reports leaked this week. The proposal would invest $447 billion into the flailing economy in the form of $253 billion in cuts and $194 billion in spending. But the big numbers presented in tonight's speech don't break down where this money is coming from or how it will affect Americans. Here at NJ, we're whipping out our calculators and getting into the nitty gritty.
We're a few dollars short in each category, no doubt a sign that the administration is leaving some wiggle room in their proposal.
Tax Cuts: $253 billion total
Employer payroll taxes by $65 billion: This is designed to cut payroll taxes in half for 98 percent of businesses, according to a senior administration official.
Employee payroll cut by $175 billion: By extending the current tax holiday set to expire in December, the president's plan would eliminate payroll taxes for firms that increase their payroll by adding new workers or increasing the wages of their current workers (up to $50 million in wage increases.)
Long-term unemployment tax credit by $8 billion: According to the Bureau of Labor Statistic, those out of work for more than 27 months make up the bulk of the unemployed in America.
Spending: $194 billion total
Infrastructure bank by $10 billion: Echoing the bipartisan proposition brought by Sens. John Kerry, D-Mass., and Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas.
Transportation improvements by $50 billion: For immediate improvement to transportation surfaces.
Unemployment insurance and reform by $49 billion: Extending payments to the unemployed would keep 6 million people who would see the end of the line in December. The reform would allow unemployment insurance to be given to workers whose hours are reduced but not necessarily laid off. The money would work as a bridge for workers to keep gaining experience before they receive a full time job.
Modernizing schools by $30 billion: This supply would be split between federal and state hands to refurbish at least 35,000 public schools. The money that would be allocated is less than the $50 billion proposed by former White House adviser Jared Bernstein. The plan would also protect teachers at risk of losing their jobs.
Funds for low-income students by $5 billion: Part of the "pathway to work" fund. The current unemployment insurance rate for young people is "terrible, deplorable," according to a senior administration official.
Rehabilitation and repurposing of vacant property by $15 billion: The government will pay people to tear down vacant homes and reduce urban blight.

Israel's Bibi Throws Tantrum Over U.S. Iran Policy
Posted By kurtnimmoadmin On September 7, 2012 @ 10:39 am In Old Infowars Posts Style,Tile,World at War | Comments Disabled
September 7, 2012
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and US Ambassador Dan Shapiro did engage in a sharp, undiplomatic exchange last Friday over Netanyahu's frustration with the Obama Administration's Iran policy, the US congressman in that meeting said Thursday.
Republican Congressman Mike Rogers from Michigan, who chairs the House Intelligence Committee, told a Michigan radio station that the "sharp exchange" was "unusual, to say the least."
According to transcribed segments of the interview that appeared on Jeffrey Goldberg's blog, Rogers – when asked whether it was inaccurate to say the exchange was a shouting match – replied that "there were elevated concerns on behalf of the Israelis."

Round Pond Estate Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon 2007
Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, California
Winemaker's Notes
This bright and lively wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. It shows aromas reminiscent of fresh Asian plum, blueberry pie, vanilla bean, all spice, with hints of eucalyptus and cigar box. It boasts a plush mouth feel that is soft on entry, framed by well structured tannins, a balanced acid profile and medium body. Flavors of mocha and chocolate covered cherries are apparent throughout the long and smooth finish. This wine can be
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "A tremendous effort, dense and chewy, robust and concentrated, with a rich, focused core of blackberry, currant, cedar, herb and mineral. Full-bodied, gaining depth and persistence. Drink now through 2018. 4,018 cases made."

About Napa ValleyView a map of Napa Valley wineries
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard lands were scooped up and vines were planted throughout the county. A number of wineries emerged, from large conglomerates to small boutiques to cult classics. Cabernet Sauvignon is definitely the grape of choice here, with many winemakers also focusing on Bordeaux Blends. Whites are usually Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
Notable FactsWithin the Napa Valley lie smaller sub-AVAs that lend even more character specifics to the wines. Furthest south is Carneros, followed by Yountville, Oakville & Rutherford. Above those two is St.-Helena and finally, just grated an AVA, Calistoga. These areas are situated on the valley floor and are known for creating rich, smooth Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay. There are a few mountain regions as well, nestled on the slopes overlooking the valley AVAs. Those include Howell Mountain, Stags Leap and Mount Veeder. Wines from the mountain regions are often more structured and firm, benefiting from more time in the bottle to evolve and soften.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

Lily and Abby have a meeting at Crimson Lights. Lily apologizes for missing the meeting yesterday - she had things to work out with Cane, but everything's fine now. Abby sees something on her phone and shows Lily. "Are you sure about that?" It says that Cane boarded a plane to New York with a beautiful woman who was not his wife. Lily says it was probably the woman boarding ahead of him and it's meant to get a rise out of her. Abby says it seems to be working. She talks her into calling Cane. A woman answers. It's Hilary, who says she's in New York with Cane. Lily asks her to tell him she called. Abby wonders why Cane didn't tell her he was taking Hilary with him. Lily gets defensive.

Jill arrives and tells them Lauren and Fen didn't come home last night. Kevin has a way to track Lauren. Paul doesn't want to know. Kevin tracks Lauren's phone to a landfill outside of town. Michael freaks out and tells Paul to find Basco. Kevin gets a text from Fen saying he's with friends. Jill tries to keep Michael cool. Paul says Lauren hasn't been to work and Basco hasn't been seen since yesterday. Michael curses - he can't find her while he's locked up.
In the cabin, Lauren refuses to eat for Carmine. He talks about her eating the chocolate-covered strawberries before and kisses her neck. She acts tense.

"Let me love you." Carmine says he texted Kevin pretending to be Fen. He complains that Michael let Fen and Lauren down. Carmine feels they're destined to be together. Lauren says he's right - it hasn't worked out with her and Michael. Carmine warns her not to lie to him. She says she stopped Michael from shooting him because she couldn't lose him.

Neil is fed up with people hurting his family. Leslie thinks it's interesting that the blogger has stopped using the old diary entries - it's a good thing.

Billy appears and updates them on Phyllis. Leslie is interested to hear that Billy fired Carmine. She leaves and Neil flashes to meeting Rose in Evanston.
Later, Fen is brought into the station by Jill. He tells Michael it's a bummer he didn't 'waste' Carmine. Michael grills him and he laughs. Michael notices his eyes.
