BURLINGTON, Vt. - Junior Alvin Abreu (Lynn, Mass.) matched his season high with 25 points, including 20 in the second half and overtime combined, but the University of New Hampshire men's basketball team suffered an 85-76 overtime defeat at the University of Vermont on Sunday afternoon at Patrick Gymnasium.
|Chandler Rhoads
The Wildcats fall to 10-14 on the season, including 5-8 in America East play, while the Catamounts improve to 19-8 and 10-3 in the conference.
Abreu, UNH's America East Player of the Game, was 9-for-22 from the field and 7-for-9 at the line to go along with four assists and three rebounds in a season-high 42 minutes. Freshman Chandler Rhoads (Berryville, Va.) netted a career-best 16 points on 5 of 10 shooting and added a career-high eight rebounds, two steals and an assist in a career-best 30 minutes. Classmate Ferg Myrick (Philadelphia, Pa.) added 11 points on 5 of 9 shooting and had three rebounds in 22 minutes, which are the highest of his career. Junior Dane DiLiegro (Lexington, Mass.) was 4-for-6 from the floor as he recorded 10 points and eight boards.
Evan Fjeld, Vermont's America East Player of the Game, led the Catamounts with 22 points on 7 of 10 shooting. Fjeld made all eight of his free throws and tallied nine rebounds, four blocks, two steals and an assist. Marqus Blakely tallied 22 points, eight boards and three assists, while Maurice Joseph scored 16 points.
UNH trailed by 12, 62-50, with 4:26 to play in regulation when a 14-2 surge tied the game and sent it to an extra session. Rhoads knocked down a jumper to cut it to 10 and then followed a Joseph free throw with a three-point play that cut it to eight, 63-55, with 3:47 to go. Abreu sank a jumper to slice the deficit to six and then added two free throws after Joseph sank 1 of 2 at the line to bring the score to 64-59 at 2:24.
DiLiegro then scored the final five points of the half in a span of 1:37 to force overtime. After he sank 1 of 2 at the line and the Wildcats made a defensive stop, DiLiegro reeled in a loose ball and layed it up and in to make it 64-62 with 1:21 on the clock. After another stop, Abreu found DiLiegro down low for a layup that tied the game with 37 seconds remaining. The Wildcats then forced two misses at the other end to send the game to overtime.
Over the final 4:49 that spanned the run, the UNH defense forced Vermont to go 0-for-4 for the field and turn the ball over three times. The Catamounts went 2-for-5 at the line and committed an offensive foul during the stretch.
After the Wildcats won the overtime tip, Abreu opened the scoring with a jumper 19 seconds in that gave UNH its first lead since it was up 2-1 just 1:36 into the contest. Joseph answered with a layup inside and after Rhoads found sophomore Brian Benson (Rochester, N.Y.) for a two-handed slam, Fjeld hit a basket inside to tie the game at 68 with 3:33 remaining.

Abreu then sank another jumper to give the Wildcats their third lead of overtime and fourth of the game, but a Blakely three-point play on the other end at 2:57 put Vermont up for good, 71-70. Blakely's layup made it 73-70 before Abreu sank a pair at the line to cut it back to one with 1:42 left. Brendan Bald made two free throws to push the lead back to three and after a defensive stop, Joseph found Blakely for an alley-oop dunk that made it 77-72 with 1:15 on the clock. The Catamounts then made 6 of 8 at the line the rest of the way and closed the scoring with another Blakely dunk with three seconds remaining.
Vermont started the game on a 9-2 run and led by eight, 16-8, with 12:05 left in the opening half when a pair of Rhoads free throws and a layup by junior Tyrone Conley (Burlington, Vt.) sliced it to four at 10:29. The two teams went back and forth the rest of the half, with the Catamounts leading 31-26 with eight seconds left when Myrick buried a 3 to send the Wildcats into the locker room down two.
The Catamounts scored the first four of the second half before layups by Rhoads and Abreu brought UNH back to within 35-33 at 17:07. Fjeld and Abreu then traded jumpers and after Nick Vier made 1 of 2 at the line, a DiLiegro dunk cut it to 38-37 at 15:49. Following two Blakely free throws, Abreu sank a jumper at 14:23 to again slice the deficit to one, but a 17-6 run, sparked by a Joey Accaoui 3-pointer, gave Vermont its largest lead of the game at 57-45 with 8:31 left in the second half.
Conley halted the run with a big 3 from the top of the key at 6:30, but with his team still up nine, Joseph buried a 3 from the right wing that pushed the lead back to 12 at 62-50 with 4:50 remaining and set up the Wildcats' furious comeback.
Conley finished with seven points and eight rebounds in his homecoming.
Despite being outshot 41.2 percent (21-51) to 39.1 percent (27-69), the Wildcats outrebounded Vermont, 45-42, including 19-12 on the offensive glass, which led to a 19-9 edge in second-chance points. They also outscored the Catamounts in the paint, 38-30, held a 33-12 advantage in bench scoring and turned the ball over three fewer times, but Vermont scored 40 points at the free throw line after getting to the stripe a whopping 55 times (72.7 percent).
The Wildcats return to action Wednesday, Feb. 17 at 7 p.m. when they play host to the University of Maine as they White Out Lundholm Gymnasium live on Comcast SportsNet.

R. I... BAG SEAL UTILIZING PRESSURE SENSITIVE TAPE HAVING WEAKENED TRANSVERSE ZONES Filed Jan. 30, 1962 FIG. 1.
INVENTOR ROY L. BUSH FIG.4. BY 7 wkMm/fi ATTORNEYS United States Patent Ofi ice 3,322,325 Patented May 30, 1967 3,322 325 BAG SEAL UTILIZING IRESSURE SENSITIVE TAPE HAVING WEAKENED TRANSVERSE ZONES Roy L. Bush, 260-04 58th Ave., Little Neck, NY. 11362 Filed Jan. 30, 1962, Ser. No. 169,796 3 Claims. (Cl. 229-62) This invention relates to a pressure sensitive tape particularly adapted for sealing bags or the like, and to a method for applying the same to said bags.
Many commodities are presently vended in polyethylene bags or the like, the upper end of which is gathered to form a neck around which is placed a pressure sensitive tape. This tape is generally made of a treated paper base material for strength, to prevent accidental or premature severance of the tape, one side of the tape having a pressure sensitive adhesive applied thereto. While this tape provides an efiicient sealing means, it has been found that, when the contents of the bag are to be removed, it is virtually impossible to pull the tape off, or tear it in two, without ripping the bag, thereby destroying its storage usefulness.
It is an object of this invention to provide a pressure sensitive tape for placement around the gathered neck of a bag or the like, to seal the latter, the seal being readily broken to permit facile opening of the bag and removal of the contents without tearing the bag.
Another object is to provide a pressure sensitive tape of the character described having transverse weakened zones at spaced intervals to permit the tape to be torn apart at the locus of the neck of the bag, for opening the latter.
A further object is to provide a method of applying pressure sensitive tape having uniformly spaced, transverse weakened zones to the neck of a bag, comprising placing the central section of a length of the tape around the neck, aligning the weakened zones of the terminal portions of the tape, and securing the terminals of the pressure tape together.
Other objects of the invention will be manifest from the following description of the present preferred form of the invention, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing.
FIG. 1 is a fragmentary front plan View of pressure sensitive tape made in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a rear plan view of the same;
FIG. 3 is an elevational view of a bag, illustrating the application of the pressure sensitive tape of the present invention thereto, for sealing the bag;
FIG. 4 is a fragmentary elevational view similar to FIG. 3, showing to advantage the manner of securing the tape to the bag;
FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIG. 4, showing the manner of tearing the tape to open the bag, for removing the contents;
FIG. 6 is a top plan view of the tape per se after it is applied to the bag in a manner shown in FIG. 4;
FIG. 7 is a similar view showing the terminal portion of the tape wrapped around the main body of the bag; and
FIG. 8 is a top plan view of the tape per se in the partially torn condition shown in FIG. 5.
Referring now in greater detail to the drawing, there is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a tape 10 of predetermined length which may be in roll form or cut into strips as desired. Tape 10 is preferably made of a paper base material which has been treated for greater strength in order to prevent accidental or premature tearing thereof during, or subsequent to, application to the bag. As shown in FIG. 2, a pressure sensitive adhesive coating 11 is applied to one side of the tape to permit facile application of the tape to a bag. In accordance with the objects of the present invention, tape 10 is provided with a plurality of uniformly spaced transverse perforations or weakened zones 12 which extend entirely across the width of the tape. Perforations 12 serve to make the treated tape more pliable for use in accordance with the present invention and also to permit ready severance thereof both for application to the bag for sealing and for tearing of the tape when it is desired to open the bag.
In FIGS. 3-8 there is illustrated the manner of applying the tape of the present invention to a bag designated 13, which bag may be made of polyethylene, paper or any other suitable flexible material. In accordance with the objects of the present invention, the bag is gathered near its open end to form a neck 14 around which the central portion 15 of a predetermined length of tape 10* is placed. By virtue of the pressure sensitive adhesive 11 on one side of the tape, central portion 15 readily adheres to the neck of the bag. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, the terminal portions of the tape designated 16 and 17 extend outwardly from the neck of the bag and are adhered together in such a manner that transverse perforations 12 are aligned. This forms a tear strip designated 18.
It is within the contemplation of the present invention to extend the extreme terminal portion 17 beyond that of portion 16 as indicated at 17. This permits portions 16, 17 and 17' to be wrapped around central portion 15 with the adhesive coated side of terminal portion 17' adhered to main body portion 15 to hold the tape terminals in wrapped positions. This effects a more aesthetic appearance while at the same time effecting a tighter seal on the bag.
When it is desired to open the bag for removal of the contents, terminal portion 17 is first lifted out of adhesive engagement with central portion 15 and portions 16 and 17 returned to the position shown in FIG. 6. Tear strip 18 is then severed along aligned perforations 12 at the juncture of main body portion 15, in the man ner illustrated in FIG. 8. In most instances, this action is all that is necessary to complete opening of the bag. However, at times, the remaining terminals of the tape are still lightly sealed, in which event the seal is readily broken by spreading the upper terminals of the bag to pull the terminals apart.
With the process and apparatus of the present invention the sealing of bags is quickly and efficiently effected. Additionally, opening of the 'bag is greatly facilitated without ripping the latter and thereby destroying its storage usefulness.
It is further within the contemplation of the present invention to secure tape 10 to the gathered neck of the bag by adhesively securing the terminals thereof in such a manner that perforations 12 are not aligned. Also, if desired, the terminals of the tape may be coextensive or the terminals may be haphazardly overlapped and secured together. The terminals need not be wrapped around neck portion 15, as disclosed in FIG. 7. Whether perforations 12 are aligned or unaligned, the tape may be broken by pulling the bag apart :at the locus of the neck portion of the tape. This causes the tran verse severance along a perforated line 12, the particula point of the break being the weakest point of the tape. Therefore, when the bag is opened in this manner, the tape may be torn at the point indicated in FIGS. 5 and 8 or at a point on the periphery of neck portion 15. Various other changes may be made within the scope of the claims hereto appended.
What is claimed is:
1. In a bag of flexible material open at one end, sealing means therefor adapted for engagement with a neck portion of the bag formed by gathering the latter near the open end thereof, the sealing means including a flexible tape having a pressure sensitive adhesive coating on one side thereof and having spaced transverse weakened Zones, the intermediate part of said tape encircling the neck portion of the bag, the terminals of said tape being adhered together, whereupon the exertion of stress along a weakened zone at the locus of the neck portion causes the tape to break and permits opening of the bag.
2. In a bag of flexible material open at one end, sealing means therefor adapted for engagement with a neck portion of the bag formed by gathering the latter near the open end thereof, the sealing means including a flexible pressure sensitive tape having transverse weakened zones comprising equi-spaced perforations coextensive with the width of the tape, the intermediate part of said tape encircling and being secured to the neck portion of the bag, the terminals of said pressure sensitive tape being adhered together with the transverse perforations thereof being aligned in opposed relationship, thereby forming a tear strip, to facilitate severing of the tape along a weakened zone at the locus of the neck portion of the bag.
3. The sealing means of claim 2 wherein the extreme end of one terminal portion of the pressure sensitive tape extends beyond the other, to permit the joined terminals of the tape to be wrapped around the neck portion of the bag and the extended terminal adhered to another portion of the tape.

Phoenix Suns
Suns coach: Gerald Green benefiting from growth, team's system
Gerald Green has always been known as a great athlete.
Since being selected in the first round of the 2005 draft out of high school by the Boston Celtics, the shooting guard has shown flashes of being more, but had yet to really put everything together.
But aside from winning the NBA's Slam Dunk Contest in 2007, his career had been pretty nondescript.
Green had played for seven different NBA teams before this season -- as well as a few other D-League teams and two in other countries -- but it appears he may have finally found something in Phoenix.
And, in turn, the Suns may have found something in him.
Brought over from the Indiana Pacers in an offseason trade, Green is averaging 13.9 points, 3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and nearly 1 steal per game, while shooting .439 from the field and .370 from three-point range.
Forced into a starting role due to Eric Bledsoe's absence, Green has averaged 15.5 points per game and helped the Suns stay relevant in the Western Conference playoff chase.
It's shaping up to be Green's best season as a pro, and Suns coach Jeff Hornacek says a lot had to happen for the player to get to where he is now.
Monday in Philadelphia, Green exploded for 30 points on 10-of-12 shooting (4-5 from three) while adding 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 blocks and 1 steal.
"When a guy goes overseas and then he gets back in the NBA, they change a little bit," the coach told the Doug and Wolf Show on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM Tuesday. "Maybe he's matured a little."
But at the same time, Hornacek understands the team's system has likely also played a role in the increased production.
If the season ended today, Green would finish with the highest scoring average of his career by a full point. With an ever-expanding role, chances are good the difference will be even greater when the season comes to a close.
"It's our system that probably allows him to do some of the things that make him good," Hornacek said. "I think early in the season, because of our team, we let him do a lot of things that, typically, a coach probably won't put up with, with some of the crazy shots. You see a coach take him out and take guys out when they take the bad shots.
"We tried to allow him to do it because sometimes he'd get hot. We're just trying to teach him, day-to-day, what's a good shot, what's a bad shot, when to make a pass."
The coach added he's been pleased with Green's passing of late.

New minibus for Yewtock School - after five long years fundraising
Posted: January 24, 2014|
They've finally done it! After five long years of fundraising, Yewstock School has purchased a brand new minibus.
Over the years there have been countless bingos, bazaars and fetes, quiz nights and non-uniform days and last week they took delivery of a new Peugeot Boxer specially adapted 17-seater (complete with ramp) minibus.
The school would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported them, from the Friends of Yewstock Committee, Marlene Crowder, Sue Finney, Sallie Polkinghorn, Gloria Hunt, Phil Ryall, Margaret Cowell, Clive Padgett and Sue Danoris, who have spent many, many hours organising the fund-raising events, to all the family, friends, carers, pupils, the Williams Williams Trust and members of the local community who have come along to each and every one, made cakes, donated this and that and made the whole thing possible.
Head girl Beth said: "Having a bus is so important to help children with learning difficulties access learning in the community."
It is such a vital part of the school and gives the children opportunities to explore the wider community and see and experience things they may not have had the chance to do before.

The husband of Gabrielle Giffords is speaking to the man who shot her, as she stands by his side.
Former astronaut Mark Kelly spoke directly to Jared Loughner, saying he changed his wife's life forever but couldn't dent her spirit.
It was the first time Giffords came face-to-face with Loughner. She did not speak.
Giffords and Kelly walked slowly to the podium, the former congresswoman appearing to struggle with her steps.
Loughner shot Giffords and 17 others in the attack, killing six. As part of a plea agreement, he is being sentenced to life in prison.

Teenage Manager of TitleMax Indicted for Fraud; Will She Be Filleted?
Categories: Bidness, Criminally Stupid
You've seen the ads, right? Give TitleMax the title to your car, and they'll give you some quick cash. It's as simple as that. Of course, if you don't repay your loan, they get to keep your car. (Oddly, that's never mentioned in the commercials.)
But could it be that you don't even need a car title to get a loan from TitleMax? That's what the U.S. Attorney's office in St. Louis alleges in a criminal complaint filed yesterday against the former manager of a TitleMax in Moline Acres.
Mignon Norfolk-Jones is charged with fraud and creating phony loan applications for her boyfriend Devonte Cosby and others. Norfolk-Jones allegedly knew that her sweetheart and other friends did not have automobiles to post as security for the loans and that the loans would not be repaid. Yet, in five instances, she helped them get loans anyway.
According to the indictment, she would tell these accomplices to cash the loan checks and divide the proceeds with her.
And here's the real kicker to the story, in my humble opinion.
Norfolk-Jones, the esteemed manager of the Moline Acres TitleMax, is nineteen years old, according to prosecutors. Sorry, but outside of a few sno-cone stands, what legitimate business lets a nineteen-year-old serve as its manager? Especially when you're talking about a financial institution?
If convicted, the federal court could, umm, "fillet" Mignon with 100 years in prison (20 years per each count of wire fraud) and fine her up to $250,000. Her boyfriend could spend 20 years in the poky.
I wonder if her family will post bail with a loan from TitleMax? That would be the cherry atop this fruit cake.

Nicki Paterson has won a USL Pro Division title and played in the U.S. Open Cup for the Charleston Battery.
Carolina Challenge CupWho: Chicago Fire vs. Houston Dynamo, 5 p.m.Vancouver Whitecaps vs. Charleston Battery, 7:15 p.m.Where: Blackbaud StadiumTickets: 971-4625
But Paterson, who enters his third season with the club, has never played in a Carolina Challenge Cup match.
The talented Scottish midfielder will get that opportunity tonight when the Battery will face Major League Soccer's Vancouver Whitecaps beginning at 7:15 p.m. at Blackbaud Stadium. The 10th Carolina Challenge Cup will open with Houston taking on Chicago at 5 p.m.
As of Friday night, there were less than 400 tickets remaining for tonight's match.
The last two years that Paterson has been with Battery, he missed the week-long tournament because of immigration issues or because he was finishing up his season in New Zealand.
"I'm excited to finally get a chance to play in the Carolina Cup," said Paterson, who led the Battery with 12 goals a season ago. "I've heard a lot about the tournament and obviously any time you can play against teams from the MLS it's exciting. We haven't won it yet, so hopefully we can start the year by adding another cup to our trophy case."
After helping lead the Battery to the club's fourth title last summer, Paterson was loaned to the MLS' New York Red Bulls. Paterson spent a month with the Red Bulls honing his skills and playing in two reserve games, recording an assist in each match.
"They were watching me every second and I kind of liked that," Paterson said. "Your touch had to be really sharp and you had to be switched on all the time. It kind of forces you to be focused all the time and I could see myself improving every day. I feel like the month I spent in New York was the best month I've had as a pro."
Paterson was able to work with and against one of the top strikers in the world in New York forward Thierry Henry. Henry, who won a World Cup title with France in 1998, played for two of Europe's most elite soccer clubs in Arsenal, of the English Premier League, and Barcelona. Paterson said he had a couple of one-on-one sessions against Henry during his time in New York.
"The guy is a magician," Paterson said. "Even at 35, he still is really, really quick and he's so sharp mentally. We worked out one-on-one a few times and he that was a huge help. I got along with him very well."
For the first time in several years, Paterson did not play in the offseason. He spent most of the offseason back home in Scotland. Paterson also got engaged to his longtime girlfriend Cheryl McSeveny.
"I've playing year round for the past few years, but we'd just won a championship and I had to go to a couple of family weddings," Paterson said. "The month I spent in New York took a lot out of me and I just wanted to go home and rest for a few months. This is the best I've felt in a long, long time coming into a season."
Paterson spent the last month training with the Red Bulls, but was released last week to join the Battery.
"It's very difficult to get an international spot in the MLS," Paterson said. "They tend to give those to established players from Europe or South America. I think they liked me and had good things to say about me. It was a good experience. I got myself sharp and that can only help my season here."

If I was designing a patch kit this would be it. The container is quality, not flimsy soda can aluminum. You can drive a car over it. It keeps everything clean and organized. It has just enough extra room to fold up a $20 for emergencies.
I've used plenty of these patches thanks to some sub-par tires I was running. Not a single patch has failed. Easy to use and a quality patch.

Tycho's latest album was one for the books. He seems to have matured with time and ripened alongside some very talented musicians that supported his sound on the record. So it only seems natural to have remixers come out of the woodworks in a similar profound fashion. Bibio x Tycho, what an exciting concept, and the tune does not fall short of the possibilities that plagued my mind prior to first listen. The natural bird sounds and faded guitar strums narrate a fantastical daydream that transport you to a simpler time. It's minimal at it's finest, because that's all a song really needs to be.
Coldplay released a new single this past Tuesday and it seems like the internet could not get over how much it sounded like Bon Iver. Regardless of their new sound, it was only a matter of time before everyone jumped on the bootleg remix train. The first one that caught my eye was this subtle, yet dancey take by NYC resident and Parisian transplant LEVI. Available for free download via his facebook page it's chill in all the best ways.
Warning: this will make you feel some type of way. As if my obsession with this track couldn't get any more real, MNEK had to go and drop the four on the floor, insert an unmerciful amount of piano, and let his talented vocals run rampant on the track. Guaranteed to stir up every emotion you've got in your arsenal, grab the nearest tissue box and just let em flow…
Our very own aRod returns with another seasonal mix – FallGaze 2013. Whether it's warm indie/disco sounds to fit the feel of the Indian Summer or darker, sexier deep house/minimal sounds to go with the cooler, moody feel of Autumn, this mix will fit whatever vibe you're feelin'. The track list includes originals from Nadia Ksaiba, Hot Natured, LUXRY & Daniel Avery plus remixes by Diamond Cut, Grafton Primary, GRUM, Jonas Rathsman, PIXELATED and many more. Extra special shout out goes to the artists/labels/management who helped out with a few exclusives (Kaytranada's remix of "Perfect Form" by Cyril Hahn and Joe Goddard's remix of "Everything You Never Had" by Breach).

Yolanda Be Cool's massive rebranding effort from their 2010 hit single, "We No Speak Americano," has proved to be very fruitful. Signing to Dim Mak Records for the U.S. release of their new album turned a lot of heads, and their mix for the label's pool party in Miami stirred up a lot of passion. With many ID's on their way according to some facebook activity, a new song and video titled, "A Baru In New York," has come into being.
It would appear Kieran Hebden has been pretty busy recently conjuring up two massive dance records at the same time, for two separate projects. First, JT gets a Four Tet makeover for his omnipresent "Suit & Tie" record. Its use of the vocal stems makes it one of the more original interpretations and features some tech house to compliment a very minimalistic acapella version of the record. Also included in this post is Four Tet's contribution to the Nonplus Records compilation release titled, "Four These Times." Boddikah, Joy Orbison, and Lowtec comprise of the other talent featured on the "Think and Change" project. The bass in Four Tet's record finds its groove right away and features a simple vocal sample repeating one line over and over at changing frequencies. The percussion in it has his fans admiring a sound more reminiscent of his earlier works — an impressive feat considering how different these two productions are.
It's been 17 years since Josh Wink's original Minimal Tech hit, 'Don't Laugh,' made its way into record stores around the globe in the mid 90s, and with all sub-genres of electronic music exploding at the moment, Josh found some time to team up with Saved Records boss, Nic Fanciulli, for a revamped remix ready for the 2012 crowds that was just released today on Fanciulli's imprint. An ultimate classic dance music tune. Stream the 2012 remix + 1995 original after the jump and pick it up on Beatport now. Muahahaha. Continue Reading
Digital Structures have just released the second installment of their miniature compilation series, At the Crossroads. At the Crossroads Vol. 2 is a well-rounded record that showcases some of Digital Structures best talents. The new compilation premieres their recent label recruit, Child remixing A. Balter & Eitan Reiter's 'Komodo Dragon'. Also on the compilation is GDD favorite Danalog with a groovy and un-deniably catchy new track entitled Ol' Paapsh, a guaranteed dance floor killer.

As with many profound experiences, words cannot express the thoughts, feelings, and emotions that culminated from the 3-day fantasy land, Lightning in a Bottle. After attending, I realized what it was that motivates a company to be committed to "the highest levels of art, production, and aesthetic to always challenge people's preconceived notions of reality and what is possible." (website) There are countless festivals and music events in the world, but it is clear that Lightning in a Bottle is in a class of it's own because of The Do LaB's determination to create an event that encompasses music, art, spirituality, and culture.

Here's something we welcome back with open arms: a brand new mixtape from Edwin van Cleef. Although not as consistent in terms of frequency, Edwin van Cleef's mixtapes are certainly right on par with the likes of The Magician and Aeroplane in terms of quality monthly mixtapes (some say better). So anytime we can get our mitts on an EvC mix, our excitement levels are on high.
Earlier this year, EvC gave an upgrade to his mixtape titles. No longer does he simply name them after whatever current month he is in; he names his mixtapes after whichever favorite subgenres he is showcasing that particular month (subgenres which he totally doesn't just make up, of course). This month is his "Starmix", which I can only imagine is a fusion of subgenres which primarily exist in the outer reaches of the cosmos and were first discovered at some alien discotech or perhaps some pool party on Venus. It's deep, atmospheric, galactic, funky spacehouse….or "Starmix".

Police's hunt for white van driver
Posted: November 10, 2012|
POLICE investigating how a woman come to be found lying in the street with head and body injuries are appealing for information on a vehicle seen in the area.
Detectives say they are keen to speak to the driver of a white van seen around Morfa Street and The Strand in Swansea city centre as he or she may hold vital clues as to what happened to the casualty.
The 30-year-old woman was found lying at the roadside on Morfa Road — near the railway arches — at around 8.30pm on Monday, and she is currently in Morriston Hospital where her condition is described as stable.
Officers investigating the incident have released a CCTV image of a long wheel-base van they want to trace.
Detective Inspector Darren George of Swansea Central CID said: "Having made extensive enquires we are still not fully aware how this young woman has sustained her injuries.
"Officers have viewed a substantial amount of CCTV footage and along with other enquiries have identified a white van in the vicinity of Morfa Road at the relevant time.
"This van may or may not be connected with the incident — I am appealing to the driver of this van to come forward as they may hold important information which will assist our investigations."
Inspector George added that it was believed there were several people in the area at the time of the incident, and he urged them to come forward.

The most convenient way to get to know poetry is to read poetry. It would be invidious for the writer of a general article on the subject to prejudice the reader by making a selection of poems or poets; in experience, anyhow, one's acquaintance with poetry comes about chiefly by love and accident, supported, when not undermined, by schools, colleges, and libraries. Beyond that, the bibliographical temptation is to put before the reader numerous learned works that are not poetry but about poetry; whatever their usefulness at various stages of study, and it may be great, they must not substitute for the reading of poetry itself. Therefore no such list is attempted.
The beginning reader, however, may well be able to use some help in interpreting, such as a critical or explanatory anthology. Cleanth Brooks and Robert Penn Warren, Understanding Poetry, 4th ed. (1976), is still probably the best of its kind, as numerous imitations amply attest. See also Tzvetan Todorov, Introduction to Poetics (1981; originally published in French, 1973), a comprehensive introduction to modern poetics.

Release and Restore; Upper Body Expansion; Free the Hips; Strong and Long; Mindful and Deep; Move & Breathe
This collection of classes are described in broad themes but experienced with a deep and focused attention. Each student is encouraged to cultivate a patient, compassionate approach to the practice while playing along the edge of their current boundaries. All are encouraged and assisted in adapting poses to respect any existing restrictions or pain patterns. Each individual can then work safely at a depth and pace that their body is willing to accommodate and able to integrate. This approach to practice leads to a softening of our defensive armoring and enables deeper levels of connection to occur. With a steady practice old habitual patterns fall away to be replaced with new ones that better serve us. A willingness to explore is all that's required to attend these classes although a sense of humor is always helpful.
Warning: Yoga is transformational.
Designed for those wanting to strengthen as well as those with limited range of motion, pain or dysfunction, we will work at an appropriate level and pace as we explore movements and breath that bring strength, integrity and freedom to the neck, shoulders, upper back and low back. Regardless of size, shape or current level of fitness, Therapeutic Yoga is yoga anyone can safely participate in and benefit from.
All levels welcome.

Below is the poem entitled What Is Truth, Question Mark which was written by poet
Ligon. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Juliet Ligon
"What is truth?" Pilate plainly asked,
if a relative lens is one's looking glass.
What's right for you is different for me.
We haven't the same perfect eyes to see.
Do we seek to define our own,
when who could know truth but God alone?
How can one know which truth is right,
if holding a broken glass and not viewing with light?
How do we know God really exists?
The answer's written on our fingerprints.
We are made in His perfect image,
but the curse of sin reveals the damage.
A moral conscience is painted within.
It becomes more tainted the more we sin.
Where is the standard, if our conscience is led?
Some are soft, while others are hardened.
It's okay to murder the innocent,
an ignorant mob was convinced.
The bible says murder's a sin.
Is it THE Word, or a cultural spin?
Jesus claims," I am THE way, THE truth, THE life."
But people sometimes give this strife.
What sets Him apart from all the others?
He's the only one that saves without works.
God came down, as Jesus in humility.
He reaches to us, while others seek to reach.
Who is this God people try to understand?
What is our purpose, and what is His plan?
This is a great mystery, revealed in prayer.
Is truth found in Jesus, or elsewhere?
"What is truth?" people still ask today.
Where are you going, and who leads the way?

Maybe we should schedule some NFL teams for a few home games. I mean, after all, just ask some Duck fans and they'll tell you the Ducks could hang with most NFL teams. Right Duck Fan? I'm sure Duck fan has already slotted their Ducks for another appearance in the National Championship Game because the Ducks always deserve to be in it (at least on paper).
Yup, that is correct. As I said, their #5 national seeding was a joke and was proven to be when they were dominated against a mid-major in Kent State. I don't know how the Ducks won as many games as they did this year because their hitting was very, very weak at an anemic .265 and only 29 homers on the season. Good pitching and good defense but you still got to score runs.....
Hey Chipster, as I recall the Beavs and the Ducks split their basketball series 1-1 and the Beavs actually went farther in the Pac-12 Tourney than the Ducks did by beat the Huskies. True, the Ducks made it to the NIT, but head to head it was even. Maybe the joke is on you instead of CR being the joke. Quack quack quack!
Hmmm, I would think you'd at least have to win a S-Regional first and make the CWS before you could actually make "another run at a national championship." Let's face it, the Ducks anemic hitting would have been an embarrassment had they made the CWS this year. The #5 National Seeding was a joke and we all know how that #5 seeding was influenced by a certain unnamed coach.
Sure, Kent State is a good team and a nice story, but the Ducks were a #5 national seed. Either the Ducks weren't as good as advertised or Kent State is a great team. I think the former is more accurate that the latter.
I've said the same thing of the Beavs, until Casey realizes you need to hit the ball and score runs, pitching and defense will only carry you so far. He's made some progress with the likes of Conforto, but now must bring in other hitters to compliment his power.
Lastly, promising your team will make the CWS is one thing, but actually doing it is another. The Beavs didn't make any promises in 2006 and 2007, they just went out and got it done. But, grandstanding is what the Ducks are all about so I suppose Horton's promise fits in nicely with the rest of the self-indulgence of Ducks athletics.
It is interesting in that just last year Duck fan didn't consider baseball that important of a sport. I suppose that's because the Beavs have produced two national titles back to back so it's easy to see why some Duck fans would downplay the significance of the sport. It's easy to jump on board when the Ducks are winning, just ask many Duck fans. However, the true loyal fan base comes from those fans that support the team win or lose as OSU fans do. Great season for the Ducks this past year and tough way to lose an opportunity to go to the CWS on a bloop fly ball. I mean it was within the Duck's grasp much like the Auburn game when the guy rolled off the tackle of a defender and poof....game over....just like last night....all Horton has to do is give Kent State's best hitter with 1st base open and set up the double play and play the %s. I felt bad for the Ducks players, but to be honest couldn't have had a better finish and outcome than to watch some of those spoiled Duck fans whine and cry in disbelief after the game. Mind you not all Duck fans, but those bandwagon fans who only show up when the Ducks are winning. Beavs 2 National Titles Back to Back.....the Ducks ZERO.....priceless!.
And the Beavs took 4 out of 5 from the Ducks, but you conveniently left out that FACT.
It appears that now Oregon Duck fans think College Baseball is serious stuff as opposed to just a year or two ago when college baseball wasn't that big of a deal to Duck fans. So I don't want to hear anymore garbage that college baseball isn't a big deal or one of the major three college sports. Obviously, Duck fans were all in tonight even though their Ducks bluff was called by Kent State.
Sorry, that's an old argument because the Beavs and Casey were successful before Knight's help with a new contract. Remember, Knight helped the Beavs resign Casey after the 1st or 2nd championship, not before.
6538, Oh, I think we Beav fans grasp the concept in that the Ducks got a HUGE gift in the 1st game vs. Austin Peay, when the guy was tagged in the back but called safe to tie the game 5-5 in the 9th, but I didn't see you complaining about that call. Bottom line is, the Ducks lack of offense finally caught up to them. They were something like 17-5 in one run games and eventually you're going to lose a game like that as the Ducks did tonight. Face it, Kent State outplayed the Ducks for most of the series and that's why they won...they were the better team...not because the umpiring was bad.
Plus, Horton blew it by not walking KS best hitter with one out and runner on second and 1st base open. You never let the other team's best player beat you and you play the %s and set up a double play....bad decision by Horton that contributed to the loss. No Natty for you guys again while the Beavs just have to sit pat with back to back natty's! Booyah!
Last time I checked, OSU is in the State of Oregon, so maybe this is as much about Oregon representing the state. I don't care if you're a Duck or a Beaver, but we all should be rooting for the Pac-12 to do well. Despite some of the chest thumping, I'd like to see Oregon advance but I gotta be honest, they don't hit worth a lick. I'm still trying to figure out how the Ducks lost with 7 hits and 11 walks. I don't see the Ducks winning the next two as Kent State appears to be a stronger offensive team and it's doubtful they'll gift the Ducks with another 11 walks in the remaining games. Either way, it's been a fun season for Ducks and Beavs alike. Good luck to the Ducks as they're going to need it.
BTW, how the heck do the Ducks lose when they are gifted 11 walks....are you freaking kidding me...that RiDuckulous! The Ducks lost because they had something like 7 hits....plain and simple. While the RF's play didn't help in the 8th, it was a much tougher play to make than most fans think. But that didn't cost the Ducks the game.....11 walks....WOW!
What do the rules say about Whining?
I thought the homeplate umpire had a very tight strike zone and he squeezed some of those KS pitchers in the 9th inning too....bad calls go both ways. I didn't hear Duck fan complaining when Austin Peay got jobbed on that play at the plate in the 1st game when the Duck player was clearly tagged in the back and was out but instead called safe and 5-5 in B9th. Bad calls go both ways and you can't conveniently ignore a gift call that helped you win that mediocre regional. As I've said before, you gotta hit the ball and score runs to win no matter how good your pitchers are.
Personally, I believe it's a little easier today than it was say 20 years ago to build a team from scratch and become competitive because more established programs turn their rosters over every two years with kids leaving early, .....much like what's happened in college basketball. That's one of the main reasons there's so much parity in college baseball. You no longer have the traditional powerhouses like the USCs, Texas, Okla State, Miama, etc. that make the college world series year in and year out.
Last night's loss is just one game, but make no mistake, it shows just how difficult it can be to make the CWS let alone win the whole thing despite the parity issue. It makes OSU's back-to-back C-ships look even more impressive because it's one thing to reach the CWS but entirely another to win it all and back to back to boot.
I'm not sure this Oregon would have been even good enough to make the S-Regionals 20 years ago given their lack of hitting, but they do have heart. Sometimes desire and the will to win makes up for a lack of talent.
What a great catch by the KS left fielder too, but those unis were pitiful....too old school for me.
Last time I checked, the Beavs were playing a much higher caliber opponent than Austin Peay and Cal State Fullerton. It's improbable the Ducks would have done any better than the beavs had they played in the LSU Regional. However, I understand your myopic point of view. It might be an easier route for the Ducks in the regional and S-Regional, but once you get to the CWS....that's where it becomes really difficult. Despite a fan like you, I'm still rooting for the Ducks to go all the way. WTP!
Today's loss pretty much sums up OSU's season in that relief pitching has been a huge problem along with missed opportunities at the plate. Schultz pitched outstanding today and deserved a better outcome.....to lose on a wild pitch is just bad, bad baseball. OSU still had an opportunity with one out in B9 after Conforto's double, but again, we couldn't get the key hit....another troublesome spot for the Beavs all season. Regardless, I'm don't think the Beavs would have won a deciding game had they won tonight because there staff was pretty thin at this point. But, it was disappointing in that it's a game they were in position to win and push it to a C-ship game tomorrow but couldn't get it done. Overall, 40-20 was a decent season for the Beavs given they turned over almost the entire infield, outfield and several key pitchers from last year's S-regional team. If some kids stay around and don't jump, the Beavs could be a pretty good team next year, but that's a big IF. Congrats on pushing LSU tonight, but I don't see LSU winning the whole thing....they're good but not great. We Beav fans need to root for the Ducks now as it's the Ducks representing the State of Oregon. WTP!
Ugly performance by the Beavs today as Child look out of sync all day throwing several pitches into the dirt. Beavs defense uncharacteristically made two errors although the game was 5-1 when those miscues occurred. On the positive side, Dylan Davis looked strong in relief. Outside of that, the Beavs did not produce offensively. Keyes is making solid contact now, but he's hitting the ball directly at the defense. Beavs left on 8 or 9 guys so their offense is not producing. They have a chance to get another win tomorrow, but I'm curious why Wetzler did not pitch today. I know he has some sort of minor injury. That combined with Jace Fry's injury may not bode well for the Beavs should they win tomorrow's early game and then have to face LSU twice....of course that's all dependent upon the Beavs winning the 1st game tomorrow. Good luck Beavs and you need to play better against Louisiana Monroe, a team that I believe beat LSU this year so they're no slouch.
It's different when players blow a play, but when the game is determined by the umpires bad call, that's a entirely separate matter. Still, the Ducks could have won despite the bad calls, but we'll never know because the umpire took the game out of the players' hands.
That's what Jerry Allen said on the call as I listened to it along with a big Duck fan buddy of mine. Jerry Allen said that he was out because ran out of the baseline as well as being tagged. Selective hearing doesn't hide the truth about Allens call of the play.
28...don't be such a homer. Even the Duck's announcer, Jerry Allen, said he was out by virtue of running out of the baseline not to mention getting tagged. That's what makes some Duck fans like you ridiculous. Oregon still might have won, but that was just a bad, bad call. To say anything less, is just plain stupid!

Summer Springboard
Summer Springboard is the second phase of your transition. You will come to campus for one day in either June or July to meet other members of your incoming class, get advice from your Orientation Peer Adviser, learn about the expectations of being a member of the campus community, and finalize your fall course schedule. Summer Springboard is a full day, and all the steps you completed throughout the One Book will ensure that you are prepared for the day.
1787 August Orientation
Finally, we'll round out your transition with 1787 August Orientation, our fall welcome week program. This is the official beginning of your JMU experience…you'll move into your residence hall, reconnect with your OPA, meet your First yeaR Orientation Guide (FROG), and be immersed in several academic and social programs throughout the week to help you become acclimated to the campus. Sure, there will be fun times and many memories made, but the important thing about this week is that we help you get prepared for the collegiate experience that you have chosen for the next chapter of your life. We hope you're ready for all that we have in store for you, because the university is excited about you, as the newest member of James Madison University!

Occupational exposures to bloodborne pathogens continue to concern all health care workers, including dental professionals. A top priority in every dental office should be to follow rigorous infection control practices. However, even the most stringent precautions cannot entirely eliminate the risk of exposure. Although preventing blood exposures is the primary means of preventing occupationally acquired bloodborne diseases, appropriate post-exposure management is an important element in workplace safety.

Bus Cook has represented one of the NFL's most high-profile players in quarterback Brett Favre for more than a dozen years. Now, as Favre steps away from the game, Cook is adding college football's most high-profile player from this past season.
Cam Newton, who won the Heisman Trophy and led Auburn to its first national title since 1957, has signed on with Cook as well as Perennial Sports of Washington, D.C., according to CBS Sports. Newton's brother, Cecil Newton Jr., is represented by Perennial Sports, the Birmingham News reported.
Newton announced last week that he was leaving Auburn early to enter the NFL draft.
According to a ProFootballTalk.com report earlier in the week, Cook went as far as bringing along Favre to his visit with Newton and his family.
In leading Auburn to its 14-0 season and win over Oregon in the BCS title game, the 6-foot-6, 250-pound Newton led the Tigers with 1,473 rushing yards and 20 touchdowns. He also was the NCAA's more efficient passer (182.05 rating), completing 66.1 percent of his passes for 2,854 yards, 30 scores and seven interceptions.
In his most recent mock draft, Russ Lande, Sporting News' draft expert, had Newton being selected 12th overall by Minnesota. Lande predicts that Newton will be the fourth quarterback selected behind Missouri's Blaine Gabbert, Washington's Jake Locker and Arkansas' Ryan Mallett.

The highly integrated design of Helen DeVos Children's Hospital seamlessly weaves functional programs with physical design. The new hospital's shape centers on circular and curvilinear form - from the façade of the building to the flourishing interior details. Intended as a colorful and artistic representation of nature, the 14-story, 464,000 square foot building includes seven working operating rooms, a cardiac catheterization lab, a full imaging center, a neonatal center and a pediatric emergency department, all of which supports a total of 212 beds for specialty treatment and advanced care for children and their families.
Because of Johnsonite's innovative color matching technology as well as the ergonomic and environmental benefits of our resilient flooring, Johnsonite Solutions were selected for over 90 percent of the hospital's floor covering needs.
Subtle Elements Equal Big Impact
Interior Designers Laura Saltsman and Carly Visser, with URS Corporation out of Grand Rapids, said their overall goal was to create a space that would make children feel like they were at home. Over 1,500 pieces of art, designed by children from all over the state, were incorporated into the new construction, along with a vibrant mural, which was designed with contributions by pediatric patients.
visit their web site
Ergonomics Meets Economics
The hospital maintenance employees were familiar with Johnsonite's System of Solutions and liked the ease of maintenance they offered, along with their shock absorbing and acoustical qualities. These noted qualities increased comfort for patients, visitors, and employees while also representing a higher ROI for the hospital owners. Johnsonite's Melodia Homogeneous Vinyl Sheet flooring in custom colors, I.D. Premier Luxury Vinyl Planks, Rubber Tiles, Finishing Borders and Stair Treads were ultimately selected for the site. The non-directional pattern of Melodia and the modular convenience of I.D. Premier provided the flexibility the hospital designers wanted. Additionally, Melodia's tough PUR construction offered the durability needed for the high-traffic requirements of a busy hospital.
John Tomei of Johnsonite said once the space was completed the design was both cohesive and beautiful. "The coordination of the floors with the counters and walls pulled the design together giving it a unified look," he said. "It's not just a hospital, it is exceptional design."
An Iconic and Sustainable Design
As a symbol of the superior medical care available in the area as well as the region's progressive environmental concerns, the hospital was designed to meet United States Green Building Councils' (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) standards for new construction. Some of the major sustainable attributes include a rooftop garden, low-emitting building materials, products with recycled content and specification of products that were manufactured or shipped from within a 500-mile radius. Like most Johnsonite solutions, Melodia and I.D. Premier are FloorScore® certified for indoor air quality and constructed using a significant portion of natural raw materials and pre-consumer recycled content, assisting the site in meeting LEED standards.
The $286 million project opened its doors in January 2011. "This kind of project doesn't come along often," said Carol DeHaan formerly with Bishop Distributing. "This is a significant building that will be an icon for the Grand Rapids community for generations to come."

Jamarcus L. Jackson
A Johnson City man was arrested on murder charges after police said he shot four people outside of a downtown nightclub.
On Sunday morning, Johnson City police arrested Jamarcus Lavelle Jackson, 24, 1211 King Springs Road, and charged him with killing DeShaun Wesley Greer, 24, 1412 E. Cedar St., Bristol, Va., and trying to kill Greer's brother, Jamison Lewis Greer, 20, also of 1412 E. Cedar St., Bristol, Va., in the parking lot outside The Battery, located at 601 Spring St.
The Greers were taken to Johnson City Medical Center for treatment, where DeShaun Greer was pronounced dead.
In addition to the Greers, Zachary Breedlove, 23, 159 Alfalfa Lane, Jonesborough, and Jonathan McInturff, 27, 944 Larry Mills Lane, No. 1, Kingsport, were also treated for gunshot wounds.
According to the affidavit of complaint, police responded to the parking lot at around 3 a.m. to find DeShaun Greer with gunshot wounds to his chest and lower back area, while Jamison Greer had wounds to his upper back and shoulder area. Members of the Washington County Sheriff's Office and Tennessee Highway Patrol also responded to the scene.
Officers also saw that bystanders were restraining Jackson, who, according to the affidavit, they identified as the shooter. Police then took Jackson and a gun — a Smith & Wesson M&P .40-caliber pistol — into custody. After searching Jackson, police said, officers found a green, leafy substance that was later identified as marijuana.
JCPD Chief Mark Sirois said evidence and witness statements indicated that Jackson and the Greer brothers may have been involved in an altercation prior to the shots being fired, but that he was unaware as to what Jackson's motivation may have been for allegedly shooting the Greers.
"At this point, we haven't been able to determine (motive)," Sirois said. "What we're getting is, it started out as a verbal (argument), then a physical confrontation, and then it escalated to gunfire."
Sirois added there was "no indication" that either Breedlove or McInturff were involved in any altercation prior to shots being fired.
Jackson was charged with second-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder in the death and injury to DeShaun Greer and Jamison Greer, respectively. In addition, he was also charged with aggravated assault for the injury to Breedlove, and reckless endangerment for the injury to McInturff, simple possession of a schedule VI drug, and unlawful possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.
The last charge, according to Sirois, may draw the interest of federal prosecutors.
"That has the potential for federal prosecution," Sirois said. "The purpose, of course, for that would be more stringent sentencing."
Sirois added, however, it was too early to know if any charges would be pursued in federal court.
Jackson was convicted of robbery on July 19, 2009, and was serving part of his six-year sentence on probation during Sunday's incident.
Jackson was taken to the Washington County Detention Center, where he was being held in lieu of a $200,000 bond. He will appear in Sessions Court today to face his charges.
While Jackson's alleged role in the incident has yet to be determined, the incident itself marked another time in which a violent crime has occurred in that parking lot, located at the corner of West State of Franklin Road and Cherry Street. According to Sirois, that area, along with several others, was "targeted" by the Targeted Community Crime Reduction Program — an $800,000 state grant aimed at reducing crime. Sirois said he has used some of those funds to increase patrols in some of the city's more problematic areas, including that parking lot.
"We do recognize that, over a number of years, that particular area of town has been a challenge, from a crime standpoint," Sirois said. "One of the aspects of that grant is putting officers on an overtime basis ... during those times when we have a number of issues come up. If you go downtown, and you go to that area, you'll notice we do have more officers out ... to try to address those issues."

Fluidtechnik - Allgemeine Regeln und sicherheitstechnische Anforderungen an Pneumatikanlagen und deren Bauteile (ISO 4414:2010); Deutsche Fassung EN ISO 4414:2010
This standard defines relevant requirements set out in Annex I of the EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, relating to machines which were placed on the European Economic Area (EEA) market for the first time, with the intent of simplifying the means of proving conformity with such requirements. Once this standard is designated a harmonized standard in the Official Journal of the European Communities, a manufacturer applying this standard may assume compliance with the requirements of the Machinery Directive (the so-called presumption of conformity). This International Standard specifies general rules and safety requirements for pneumatic fluid power systems and their components used on machinery as defined by ISO 12100:2010, 3.1. It gives significant hazards associated with pneumatic fluid power systems and specifies principles to apply in order to avoid those hazards when the systems are put to their intended use. This standard contains the German version of EN ISO 4414:2010 which has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 131 "Fluid power systems", in collaboration with CEN/TC 114 "Safety of machinery" at the European Committee of Standardization (CEN). The following amendments have been made with respect to DIN EN 989:2009-06: The standard has been fundamentally revised. In this regard, the functional requirements contained in ISO 4414:1998 have been updated and adopted. The national interests during the preparation of this standard were represented by Committee NA 060-36-21-05 AK "Ausführungsrichtlinie Pneumatik - ISO 4414/EN 983" ("Execution guideline pneumatics - ISO 4414/EN 983") of Technical Section "Fluid power systems" of the Mechanical Engineering Standards Committee (NAM) at DIN.

The Tale of the Carp Transforming to A Dragon
Posted 11 September 2007 - 05:50 PM
A symbolic meaning of the ability to resist hurdles and achieving success.
The carp is a tough fish that could resist big currents in China's ancient Yellow River.
It represents the attributes of perseverance and determination.
They are able to persistently resist hardship, swim upstream and rapidly jumping above the water to reach heaven to symbolize great achievements in ones pursuit or high ambitions of a lifetime
Could anyone please elaborate more on this tale (the origin, the writer, etc.)?

Btw, 'Koi' is the japanese name for 'carp'.
The legend of the Koi who turns into a Dragon fascinates me most. Basically, it tells of a Koi who manages to swim upstream and up a waterfall to a gate, called the Dragon's Gate, and leaps over it, successfully turning into a Dragon.
I've done research here and there about the legend, and that is the basic gist of the legend - as some state that only one Koi swam upstream on his own, no Dragon Gate mentioned, and with no other Carp competing. The Gods, being so impressed with this Carp's perserverance, turned him, as a reward, into a splendid and powerful Dragon, which proudly took flight above the tumultuous Yellow River; while other interpretations of the legend state that 360 Carp made the trip to the Dragon's Gate, but only one Carp was able to swim over to the other side, avoiding evil spirits and transforming into a Dragon by jumping swiftly over the Gate.
On the basis of this legend, variations being irrelevant, the Carp became, in the Chinese cultural tradition, a symbol of courage and perseverance. The legend teaches us that only the fittest and the strongest can achieve the highest goals. We must strive for our highest goals with patience. Believing in yourself, and always trying to do your best will prove you to be fit and strong enough to conquer any hardship, and overcome any obstacle.

Anyway, I happened to open it to the carp to dragon story (and remember, 1922):
All true dragons are of two kinds: those which are such by birth and those which become dragons by transformation from fish of the carp species. The transformed variety become dragons by leaping up the waters of a certain cataract upon a western mountain stream. Large numbers of carp swim once each year, we learn, to this waterfall known as the "Dragon's Gate." Here under the cataract they flounder about, jumping and springing up out of the swirling water; a few of them succeed in getting over the falls to the higher waters above. Those which are successful in this effort become dragons. After the story of this strange occurrence became known to the public, it was incorporated into the life of the people in a popular saying, and scholars who succeeded in passing the great triennial literary examinations were said to have "passed the Dragon Gate."
And I would be remiss if I didn't point you to this thread.
I had begun to cherish words excessively for the space they allow around them, for their tangencies with countless other words that I did not utter. Andre Breton

Was researching on the tale of "carps turning into dragon". This ancient tale is supposed to be about carps leaping and crossing over "Dragon Gate" to transform into the dragon.
A symbolic meaning of the ability to resist hurdles and achieving success.
The carp is a tough fish that could resist big currents in China's ancient Yellow River.
It represents the attributes of perseverance and determination.
They are able to persistently resist hardship, swim upstream and rapidly jumping above the water to reach heaven to symbolize great achievements in ones pursuit or high ambitions of a lifetime
Could anyone please elaborate more on this tale (the origin, the writer, etc.)?
If I may throw in my little bit:
The carp has long been an emblem of perseverance. It was admired because it struggled against the River in He Jing District, Shansi, linked to the Yellow River. From this struggle, a legend grew up that those fish who succeeded in passing above the rapids of the Dragons Gate, Long Men, on the third moon of each year, had their heads burned off by lightning as they leaped over the rapids, and the face was replaced by a dragons face, and this was left with a mark on the forehead to distinguish themselves from others. The prolonged exertions of these fish and their eventual success in leaping the rapids became synonymous with the long struggle of the literary scholar who eventually achieved success after much persistence and toil. Thus, a fish-dragon in the shape of a carp (sometimes a sturgeon), with a dragons face, became the symbol of literary eminence, and someone who passed an examination for a degree was known as a Carp who had leaped over the Dragon Gate. Accordingly, it was commonplace to present scholars who passed with distinction a plate, or perhaps a vase, decorated with one or more dragon-fish. Several exquisite silver plates with gilt decoration have been found and are in museums around the world. The British Museum has a shard of Yue ware decorated with such a fish-dragon. Sadly, it is incorrectly described as a Makara.
It was customary to put a fish-dragon on the cross-pieces that form the lintels of arches awarded to or erected for those who passed the official examinations with distinction. These fish-dragons are known as Piao (骠) best translated as mark of distinction
