By Army Spc. Michael J. MacLeodSpecial to American Forces Press Service
FORT BRAGG, N.C., June 3, 2009 Irony, our English teachers told us, often is confused with odd coincidence. Just ask Army Pfc. Wenderson Jangada of the 82nd Airborne Division, who will tell you it is ironic that the benefits of enlisting in the U.S. Army can be more significant to immigrants than to citizens.
Jangada, who became a U.S. citizen in Raleigh, N.C., on May 22, has a knack for linguistics. Not only does he speak six languages, but he also has written an historic novel about Attila the Hun.
The well-spoken, 34-year-old Brazilian immigrant who serves with 1st Battalion, 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, also is a former professional boxer.
Every enlistee has a story, but the tracks laid by older enlistees often are the most colorful. Jangada's is a love story, for a woman and a country.
"I was in Paris sparring the French heavyweight champion and teaching soldiers in the French Foreign Legion to box when I met my wife," he said.
A likely story.
"I met him at a bar," said Susan Jangada. An American from the small town of Linn Grove, Ind., she was a star volleyball player, the second best pro "middle" in all of France.
Jangada introduced himself and gave the attractive American his phone number. She stuck it in her pocket, she said, intending to throw it away at first chance.
"I didn't want anything to do with someone I met at a bar, and besides, I didn't want to be tied down in France," she said, noting the irony.
Jangada began his fighting career studying muay thai at Chute Boxe, the same Brazilian gym that spawned mixed martial-arts champs Wanderlei and Anderson Silva.
People said he had "heavy hands."
"Anyone you touch, you put to sleep," a friend said of Jangada's quick knockouts. He suggested the 6-foot-5-inch, 230-pound Brazilian try boxing.
Jangada's first boxing match ended in a knockout. "I broke the guy's nose and knocked him down. There was blood everywhere. But I had no technique," he said.
He became a student of the sport. He trained hard, went pro and became the transcontinental heavyweight champion for 2001 and 2002. He aspired to make Brazil's Olympic team, but the soccer-loving country had no money for boxers.
A friend suggested he move to Europe. "There are too many obstacles for foreigners to fight in the U.S.," Jangada said. "Europe is easier, and the money's the same."
Coincidentally, a certain pro volleyball player from Indiana was in Paris at the same time. The phone number that she intended to throw away — the one a friend encouraged her to dial, the number she texted two weeks later — would connect her to her future husband and father of her children.
Now pregnant with the couple's second child, Susan Jangada recounted their journey to her husband's enlistment in the Army and eventual U.S. citizenship as one that only true love could endure.
A doctor advised Jangada to quit boxing before recurring health issues became serious. Facing similar issues on the court, Susan Jangada suggested that starting a family would be easier in the United States.
"She took me to a Starbucks and fed me cheesecake and hot chocolate. I could not believe how good it was, and this came from America," he said, laughing. "I wanted to go to this country."
Each went home -- Jangada to Brazil for a visa, Susan to Indiana, where she worked three jobs to save money to start a family.
"It took seven months for him to get the visa interview," Susan Jagada said. Once his application was approved, he was in Indiana within 24 hours. The couple was married two weeks later on Nov. 27, 2005.
Jangada submitted paperwork for a green card so that he could find work. Susan took a job in Shreveport, La., coaching college volleyball, but the $15,000 salary wasn't enough. The couple moved in with Susan's parents, and Susan taught high school as a substitute teacher. When she landed a coaching job at Houston Baptist University, a Division One school with a more generous salary, the couple moved again.
"But I was pregnant, and my husband wanted to take care of me and the baby," she said. A short while later, Jangada's green card was approved.
"I went to the Marine recruiter, but since I did not speak any English, they would not take me. They suggested I try the Army," Jangada said. He guessed his way through the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery and passed.
"He asked me what job he should choose in the Army, and I suggested cook, plumber or electrician," Susan Jangada said. "Anything but infantry."
Jungata chose infantry. "I am a fighter," he said. "I want to be in the lead. It's my nature."
At basic training, he learned his sixth language – English – from fellow recruits and earned Soldier of the Cycle honors. Airborne school was easy, the ex-athlete said, though he acknowledged landings for the big man always were hard.
Assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Company of the 82nd's 1-504th, Jangada was hand-picked by Army Sgt. Maj. Frank Hacker to serve on the team that provides security for the battalion's senior leaders.
"I was impressed with his boxing background and the way he presented himself," said Hacker, who, with his wife, attended Jangada's citizenship ceremony. "The man knows six languages, and now he is teaching himself Arabic — not just to speak it, but to read and write it."
Jangada said it just makes sense to him. "It is like in boxing," he explained. "When I am deployed, my opponent will speak Arabic. I want to know him."
Set to deploy to Iraq in August with 1st Brigade, Jangada said he believes that, in his absence, his pregnant wife and 16-month-old daughter will be well cared for by the Army family. With readily available health care, his steady Army income, and other resources available to his family, he will be able to stay focused on his job, he said. When he returns from Iraq, he may use his GI Bill to go to college, he added.
"I come into the Army, and they don't care that I am not a citizen. They accept me anyway," he said. Even better, the Army made it easy for him to become a citizen, he noted.
"I am so grateful for all that I received that I will put my life on the line for this country," Jangada said.
"Sometimes I can't believe that he used to be a professional boxer," his wife said. "But then we run into some of his old acquaintances, and they holler, 'Jangada, where have you been?' And they cannot believe he is in the Army."
Life is full of the unexpected, she said.
(Army Spc. Michael J. MacLeod serves with the 82nd Airborne Division's 1st Brigade Combat Team public affairs office.)

Release Notes for Cisco CNS NetFlow Collection Engine, Release 4.0
March, 2003
This release note provides information about new features in the CNS NetFlow Collection Engine 4.0 release. The CNS NetFlow Collection Engine application is used with the NetFlow services data export feature on Cisco routers and Catalyst 5000 and 6000 series switches. CNS NetFlow Collection Engine provides fast, scalable, and economical data collection from multiple export devices exporting NetFlow data records.
In previous releases, this product was referred to as Cisco NetFlow FlowCollector (NFC).
This release note contains the following sections:
•NetFlow Services and IOS Release Support
•Obtaining Technical Assistance
What Is New
The following features were added in CNS NetFlow Collection Engine, Release 4.0:
•NetFlow Data Export Format Version 9
The NetFlow Data Export Version 9 is an enhancement to support different technologies such as Multicast, Internet Protocol Security (IPSec), and Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS). CNS NetFlow Collection Engine, Release 4.0 can collect, filter, and aggregate Version 9 data in the same way it does for NetFlow Data Export Versions 1 through 8.Version 9 is not compatible with previous versions of CNS NetFlow Collection Engine.
•Cafeteria-style aggregation
Users can define aggregation schemes by choosing keys and values. The key fields form a unique key for output file records. The value fields for records with the same unique key are aggregated.
•Linux port
CNS NetFlow Collection Engine, Release 4.0 can be deployed on a Linux platform using RedHat Linux 7.1 for i386 processors.
•CNS/XML interface
CNS NetFlow Collection Engine, Release 4.0 integrates with CNS using the CNS Integration Bus. This interface allows CNS applications to configure and manage CNS NetFlow Collection Engine and uses XML to format application-specific messages.
•Cisco CNS 2100 Series Intelligence Engine appliance
CNS NetFlow Collection Engine, Release 4.0 can be deployed on the Cisco CNS 2100 Series Intelligence Engine appliance.
Table 1 lists the caveats that were closed or resolved in CNS NetFlow Collection Engine, Release 4.0. In Table 1, "C" indicates a closed caveat and "R" indicates a resolved caveat.
Table 1 Closed and Resolved Caveats
DDTS Number Description Status
Can not add or remove filter while modifying Thread via configuration and control protocol.
Error reporting event: start_collector: no such files or directories.
Entry added at the end for the protocol configuration of NetFlow Collection Engine.
Temp files created for RawFlows.
Invalid port entry accepted but wraps.
Entered filter ID truncated.
fdgenerate not checking incorrect options.
Catalyst 6000 requires input, output, and router_sc fields for V8 aggregation.
Misleading and harmful error when maximum thread is configured.
NetFlow FlowCollector, Release 3.5.2 has missing flows problem.
Padding information missing in binary data structure definition.
NetFlow Gateway (NFCGW) returns an error when protocol is configured with more than 4 ports.
NetFlow FlowCollector crashes with signal 6 and signal 11.
System Requirements
CNS NetFlow Collection Engine operates with the following platforms:
•Solaris 2.6 or 2.8. A minimum of an Ultra-1 workstation is recommended with at least 128 MB RAM, 512 MB of swap space, and 4 GB of disk space.
•HP-UX, Version 11i (32-bit and 64-bit are supported). A minimum of a Class C workstation is recommended with at least 128 MB RAM, 512 MB of swap space, and 4 GB of disk space.
•Linux for RedHat Linux 7.1 for i386 processors. Requires RedHat Package Manager (RPM). An i386 processor-based Linux platform is required with at least 128 MB RAM, 512 MB of swap space, and 4 GB of disk space.
•Cisco CNS 2100 Series Intelligence Engine appliance.
Note To prevent NetFlow data export packet loss, the workstation should be dedicated to the CNS NetFlow Collections Engine and should not be running other applications.
CNS NetFlow Collection Engine, Release 4.0 requires at least 45 MB of disk space for its binary and configuration files.
CNS NetFlow Collection Engine generates output files containing aggregated data. These files require additional disk space; the exact amount depends on the flow arrival rate, collection interval, number of aggregation schemes specified, binary versus ASCII data file types, use of compression or not, and data file retention policies.
For more information on planning and managing disk space usage, see the section about Managing Disk Space in Chapter 5 of the Cisco CNS NetFlow Collection Engine Installation and User's Guide.

I am totally new to this forum as well as Mac. Right now I have a Compaq laptop that I bought 5 years ago. At any day now it is bound to die!
Well the time has come for me to switch to Mac and after doing the research I plan to get the Mac Pro 13in. As much as I love the 15in right now it is not within my budget. Hopefully some day I will be able to get the 15in. Right now I just want something to start off with. Hopefully I will be more prosperous down the road; right now the road is good and has left me with money to buy this Mac and room to expand my education.
I should mention that I have a 19in monitor (which I am using to type this message as we speak) to hook up my Mac to. So technically I am not really losing screen size.
Also I should admit that I wanted a laptop with Blue Ray and HD but after reading articles and talking to people it seems like a waste of money. I took into account licensing fees, picture quality ( which to see a difference you would need at least a 40in TV), and there is the issue of a DVD player being able to actually play the DVD at home or on any other computer which is also tied to regional issues on the DVD player. It seems that right now the technology has not matured to make me want to run out and buy it. And if I do want to burn HD or Blue ray there is Roxio for that. This whole Blue Ray and HD is just a bunch of hype to please the masses and is a format war just like VHS and DVD in the beginning. Well not hype but more like something else for consumers to pay money for when it still has flaws.
Does anybody have the latest news for Mac? I was going to buy one tonight but then there is a event on January 27 so I waited. My guess there is going to be updates for the Iphone or tablet.
I hope my rambling did not bore anyone but I wanted to share some good news. Look out Mac here I come!

The new MacPro's are great, and so are the new MacBooks for that matter.
You should go to Apple.com , click the store tab, scroll down to refurbished in the left column and see what they are offering.
The refurbished units come with full warranty, as well as option to purchase AppleCare (extended warranty and support), and are pretty heavily discounted.
They will also have been more rigorously tested than units straight out of the factory.
In all honesty, there is always gonna be something newer, flashier, etc come out when you buy something, be it a computer, car, boat, etc ....so if you wait for the next best thing, when does the waiting stop?

I considered getting a refurbished Mac but I prefer to buy from the Mac store. However I will wait after the 27th because I want to be up to date. If it does not relate to the Mac Pro laptop then I will definitely purchase one. But part of me feels like the news will be related to the Iphone or the tablet. If I wait any longer it will hurt me in the end.
Does the Panasonic Lumix with HD video work on the Mac?
Your absolutely right about things always being newer. But when it comes to electronics its so frustrating due to this format war. There are still so many issues surrounding it. I just want to buy the product and enjoy it. The opinions of people who have the fastest HD, Blue Ray laptop does not mean anything to me. And if they have a HD DVD player or Blue Ray player good for them. But till then the 13" is perfect for my needs.
And who knows one day I may be able to afford a 15" or 17."
What matters is the computer being able to do the job.
Plus if I do want to move into HD and Blue Ray there is always Roxio software and my 19in monitor with a matte screen.

Apparently it states it the manual that AVCHD motion pictures can not be downloaded to a MAC!
Found a thread though which states you can use Final Cut Express to import AVCHD files from an SD card reader.
Final Cut converts the AVCHD to MOV files.
Also, that you can use iMovie 8.0.3, which comes with iLife 09 which will come preinstalled on your Mac already
Here's a link

I know that the Mac Pro does not burn HD but I do there is a way to adjust the resolution so that it has the same feel as HD. And this job can be done through iMovie.
Can a MacPro 13" handle something like Final Cut Express. That is a pretty big file. I also plan on getting an external hard drive soon. Good there is no interest for 18 months.

1 you can always upgrade ram yourself and save bucks,
2 you can always install a larger hard drive
Both of which can be done with way less cash than can be done from apple. As for processor speed... there is roughly a 12% increase in the faster 13" MBP..in my opinion not really worth the extra coin but then again depends on intended use. In either case good luck with the decision and enjoy.

Friday night I will hopefully being buying my first Mac.
How is the warranty on Macs?
Also I am thinking of trying iWork first before purchasing Microsoft Office. I figure iWork does the same stuff as Microsoft Office and I can send the files to a PC.
Does Final Cut Express 4.0 support HD video on the Panasonic Lumix?

I went bottom end back in 2007 on a Macbook. Only 1G of Ram and 120G hard drive. I upgraded to 4GB via Kingston for $100 and bought a 1.5 TB external for $100. Much cheaper than going through Mac. Since you already have a 19" monitor, just buy whatever adapter you need to plug it in and dual screen it like I do with my old Windows monitor. My Macbook is still running well, and has everything I need.

Heart Evangelista started the year with a breakup and closed it with a relationship. And as the girlfriend of Senator Francis "Chiz" Escudero, the Kapuso star has a lot of things to be happy about, and her budding love life is "just a bonus."
[Related: At The Heart Of Christmas]"I'm already so content with my life and I have a bonus pa, so masaya," she told the entertainment media during the press conference for "Sosy Problems" recently.
Heart said this year has been good to her. "2012 was like a time na… (It's) a change in my life na parang na-close ko yung chapter—which is exciting kasi when you turn one page, may next na papalit. So na-excite na ako."
The "Sosy Problems" star is positive the following year can only be better.
[More: How 'Sosy Problems' stars think their movie will fare]"One thing I learned with changes in your life: it happens for a reason, for a good one, because God wouldn't want anything else for you except good things."
However, she has no specific expectations for 2013.
"I have no deadline," Heart added.
Relationship getting serious?
She also applies her "no expectations" mentality in her relationship with Chiz, which she said is doing "very good."
"I've known him (Chiz) now for seven months, almost eight, so I think it's working for us na hindi namin tinatago. Mas pribado lang kumpara sa past ko. But I think it's working for us."
How is it to be in a relationship with a senator?
Surprisingly, Heart said she doesn't feel Chiz is a senator.
"Kaya siguro pakiramdam ko, 'Oo nga pala ano, senador siya.'Hindi siya nagbo-bodyguard, wala siyang entourage, hindi siya flashy, hindi siya magastos, hindi siya bumibili ng mga mamahaling bagay."
[More: Chiz and Heart: In-love and proud of it]Heart added it's even Chiz who reminds her to stay grounded.
"Pag nakikita niya akong nagsho-shopping, sinasabi niya, 'Don't you feel bad?'" she narrated. "I mean, everything that I get from it is just making me better."
And perhaps it also works both ways, as the senator attended the "Sosy Problems" premiere night on December 22 with Heart. This was after the two were seen together during the Chiz's Christmas party for Senate reporters on December 12.
Is she already thinking about the possibility of becoming a politician's wife?
"Oh my gosh, hindi ko iniisip yan," Heart said. "I really have no expectations with anything. That's what makes it better now, kasi I'm just really enjoying the moment."
She reiterated that she has no deadlines as she now goes with the flow.
Still, Heart said her relationship with Chiz is a serious one.
"But it's a very serious relationship and I really like the level that I'm in."
'Sosy' is a mindset
As one of the main stars of "Sosy Problems," GMA Films' entry to this year's Metro Manila Film Festival, the entertainment press asked Heart if she's like her character in the movie, "sosy"?
"Yes, I am," she promptly answered.
But being "sosy" shouldn't be a bad thing, the actress added.
"You really don't have to be rich to be sosy. It's just really a mentality and how you want to carry yourself. You enjoy life."
"Sosy should be a good term. Sosy should be a happy-go-lucky, good vibes girl, wants to make friends, enjoy life."
"Sosy Problems," which also stars Rhian Ramos, Solenn Heussaff, and Bianca King, is now showing in theaters nationwide.

Full detailed profile on Dario Hernandez Played by Francisco San Martin on Days of Our Lives Daytime Soap Opera.
Francisco San Martin (NBC)
Birthplace: Spain
Dario quits his job at Cheatin' Heart. Adrienne's bummed that another employee bit the dust. Jenn turns up and tells Adrienne about Daniel. Adrienne reminds Jenn that Daniel isn't romantically into Carly, so why make all three of them miserable?
At the loft, Dario's glad Rafe's back but is overwhelmed after hearing about Arnold. Sofia drops by and tells Rafe in Spanish that the mission is accomplished. He swings her in his arms, happily. She hugs Dario as well. Sami looks on curiously and jealously. Rafe finally remembers Sami's there and introduces Sofia as his ex-partner. Sami admits Rafe never mentioned her. Neither lady is happy about that. Sofia explains how she helped get Arnold to sing like a canary. Sami's not happy Rafe didn't tell her about this either and tries her hand at Spanish but has issues. They laugh at her and Sofia finally realizes how impolite it is to speak Spanish in front of a non-Spanish speaking person. Dario ditches them and Sofia hears Rafe has four kids. She's in awe. Sami gets her hackles up. Sofia remembers Rafe as a young and reckless young man. Rafe tries to remind Sami he was a kid, but she's upset. Sofia takes this as her cue to leave. Rafe tells Sami that he didn't say anything about Sofia because she was undercover. Sami thinks Sofia was obnoxiously flirtatious. Rafe begs to differ. The arguing begins and Rafe assures her she has no need to be jealous. Later, Sami looks at Arnold's rap sheet, unhappily and apologizes to Rafe for her jealousy.
Mel meets Brady at Cheatin' Heart. He's drinking club soda and tells her he had an epiphany about them. Dario listens from nearby and Brady tells Mel he cares about her and is thankful for what she did to help him. Brady takes a call from Nicole and asks him to come get her. He asks Mel to stick around. He'll return. He goes and Dario and Mel agree they know what Brady wants to tell her. Dario wants to tell her the same thing. He stammers and Mel tells him she and Brady are just friends. She thinks she has already met the right guy.
Brady walks in on Dario kissing Mel at the Cheatin' Heart.
Sami freaks out at home about the possibility of Rafe being killed. She asks Bo and Hope how long they need to lie low. They need Sami's full support before they move forward. She reluctantly agrees. Rafe assures her that it will be okay. They kiss. Dario comes to their door. Rafe thanks him for finding Arianna's killer. Dario can't lose anyone else. Rafe hugs him. When Dario leaves, Sami and Rafe acknowledge that their new life will start tomorrow but he coyly reminds her they still have tonight and they begin to get it on.
At the Cheatin' Heart Brady is concerned about Melanie's reputation. Dario tells Brady that he's bad news and says he's lucky they covered his ass at all. Bo walks in and Dario leaves. Brady tells Melanie he won't rest until EJ has paid for what he has done. Vivian joins Quinn at his table. She offers to be his mother but he denies he asked her to be that. She suggests dinner later at Chez Rouge and leaves. The 'John' who hired Chloe walks over to Quinn and wants a new girl. Lola two-timed him.
At Cheatin' Heart, Detective McCarthy quizzes Dario. Melanie has an alibi for him. She admits she and Dario spent that night together. Adrienne has a flashback then says that Melanie is telling the truth. The detective leaves and Adrienne quizzes them next. She knows they are hiding something and tells hem to be careful. Adrienne leaves, the two talk and she kisses him. Brady watches.
At Cheatin' Heart, Adrienne and Dario are doing inventory when Detective McCarthy arrives, asking to question Dario about his whereabouts last night, when EJ DiMera was attacked. Both Adrienne and Dario say he was at work. Adrienne recalls Dario's bloody scarf and the detective says somebody placed Dario at the scene of the crime. Dario admits he wasn't at work the whole night. Melanie walks in as the detective prepares to drag Dario downtown.
Daniel and Jenn walk into the free clinic where they find EJ coding. Daniel uses the paddles on him and EJ's heart starts again. Jenn calls Carly for back-up but she's zonked on her bed and ignores the call. Jenn leaves a message and goes to pick her up. Daniel accuses Dario of getting Mel into this mess but Mel assures him that it's not Dario's fault. Dario mutters about not getting justice for his sister and takes off. Melanie confesses that Troy was working for EJ and is Ari's hit-and-run driver. She lets Daniel know she's covering up Brady's handiwork, which Daniel understands. He doesn't want to cause another war between the DiMera and Kiriakis family. Melanie starts to unravel, and they wonder what EJ will do once he wakes up.
Dario arrives at Cheatin' Heart late to receive the shipment. Adrienne admonishes him and demands to know what the delay was. He covers and goes to work. Adrienne notices the bloody scarf in his pocket and goes white. She demands answers. He flashes to EJ but covers.

The Isle of Wight had over 300 dairy farms in the 1960s. There are now less than 16.
Approximately 80% of the milk we produce is transported off of the Island while mainland milk is brought onto the Isle of Wight. If you would like to continue to see cows grazing Isle of Wight pastures, please buy Isle of Wight milk.
Please sign our petition to encourage Island shops to sell Island milk.
There are some simple things you can do to help our campaign (and our cows!) - for instance you can print off a leaflet to hand in when you next go shopping.

Description And Comments
As the trail winds between the domain of two troops of lowland gorillas, it's hard to see what, if anything, separates you from the primates. Also on the trail are a hippo pool with an underwater viewing area, and a naked-mole-rat exhibit. A highlight of the trail is an exotic-bird aviary so craftily designed that you can barely tell you're in an enclosure.
Touring Tips
- Open for Morning Extra Magic Hour.
The Pangani Forest Exploration Trail is lush, beautiful, and jammed to the gills with people much of the time. Guests exiting the safari can choose between returning to Harambe or walking the Pangani Forest Exploration Trail. Many opt for the trail. Thus, when the safari is operating at full tilt, it spews hundreds of guests every couple of minutes onto the Exploration Trail. The one-way trail in turn becomes so clogged that nobody can move or see much of anything. After a minute or two, however, you catch the feel of the mob moving forward in small lurches. From then on you shift, elbow, grunt, and wriggle your way along, every so often coming to an animal exhibit. Here you endeavor to work your way close to the rail but are opposed by people trapped against the rail who are trying to rejoin the surging crowd. The animals, as well as their natural-habitat enclosures, are pretty nifty if you can fight your way close enough to see them.
Clearly this attraction is either badly designed, misplaced, or both. Your only real chance for enjoying it is to walk through before 10 a.m. (i.e., before the safari hits full stride) or after 2:30 p.m.
Another strategy, especially if you're more into the wildlife than the thrill rides, is to get a Fastpass+ reservation for Kilimanjaro Safaris for around 60 to 90 minutes after the park opens. That's just enough time for an uncrowded, leisurely tour of the Pangani Forest Exploration Trail before you go on safari.
Attraction Photos
Special Comments
In September, October, and November 2014, Pangani Forest Exploration Trail is undergoing a partial refurbishment. Expect the underwater hippo exhibit, the aviary, and the research outpost to be closed during this time.
Special Needs
Disney Dish with Jim Hill
Disney cast members regularly hide fruit-filled plastic jugs in the gorilla enclosures, hoping to stimulate the apes' cognitive functions by making them search for treats. But one gorilla has turned the tables by hiding his empty jug in a different place every day, presumably to keep the staff on their toes.

Barrett sparking 10-1 Redhawks
Zasha Barrett is putting up some impressive numbers as a first-year starter for Monroe High's girls basketball team.
A 6-foot-1 sophomore center, Barrett is second on the team in points per game (11.2) and first in rebounds (11.5). She also averages 2.2 blocks, which leads the team and ranks third in Union County.
Barrett has helped the Redhawks to a 10-1 record, including 5-0 in the Rocky River Conference. She nearly had a triple-double in a win over Cuthbertson on Jan. 4, finishing with 16 points, 15 rebounds and eight blocks.
Four days later, Barrett pulled down a career-high 20 rebounds.
Barrett is one of three players in the county averaging a double-double.
Parkwood junior forward Emry Tsitouris is putting up staggering numbers at 20.2 points and 15.8 rebounds per game, while Cuthbertson junior forward Morgan Carlson averages 11.9 points and 10.2 rebounds.
Warriors on hot streak
It's been more than a month since Weddington's girls have lost a basketball game.
The Warriors (12-3, 2-0 Southern Carolina Conference) are riding a county-best nine-game winning streak dating back to Dec. 11. Their last loss came to Robinson on Dec. 7.
Two of Weddington's three losses this season came to Ardrey Kell — a 4A program that boasts a 14-1 record.
WHS is currently tied for first place in the SCC with Porter Ridge, which has won five straight and seven of its last eight.
The Warriors and Pirates (11-3, 2-0 SCC) have two regular season meetings scheduled on Jan. 22 (at Porter Ridge) and Feb. 5 (at WHS).
Odds and ends ...
... Forest Hills junior guard Tonjai Everett leads the county in assists (5.1) and steals (6.4) per game.
... Amber Isley, a senior guard at Central Academy, has scored 20 or more four times this season. Isley ranks fifth in UC in scoring at 16.1 ppg.
... Forest Hills is the only team in the county with three players averaging better than seven rebounds per game, including sophomore Onyx Burns (9.3), Everett (8.0) and junior Natalie Smith (7.1).

We all know how much A.J. Soares enjoys being on camera. Check out a little behind the scenes action with A.J. and his teammates at the teams' photo shoot, courtesy of CSNNE.com.
We've listened to your suggestions and came up with a few of our own, so without further ado, here are your nominees for the 2012 Revolution goal song.
Voting runs now through Friday, March 23 at 12 p.m. We'll reveal the 2012 goal song when the Revolution score their first home goal of the 2012 season! Cast your vote now (you can vote once per day).
Because of space constraints at Kino Sports Complex, we've been shooting our postgame videos just steps outside the Revolution's locker room. This is what happens when players walking from the locker room to the bus spot a teammate being interviewed on camera …
Matt Remsberg of ESPNHS Magazine highlights 18 male teen athletes under the age of 18 who are doing remarkable things both on and off the field. Honored in the article is the Revolution's very own, Diego Fagundez.
Read the full story here.
On this day (Feb. 29) in 1980, @TaylorTwellman was born. If his real bday is once every 4 yrs, he turns 8 today!#TTyoung #DiegoIsOlder
— NE Revolution (@NERevolution) February 29, 2012
Revolution all-time great Taylor Twellman is the only player in the history of the team to do a lot of things - win the MLS Most Valuable Player (2005), MLS Golden Boot (2005), MLS All-Star Game MVP (2005), score 101 career goals, etc. etc.
And as the above tweet stats, Taylor is also the only player in Revolution history to be born on leap day.
For Taylor's previous official birthday in 2008, we made this little video tribute to Taylor for his then-7th birthday and now seems like a good time to re-visit this.
Happy 8th birthday, Taylor!
As you know, the Revs opened the Desert Diamond Cup with a three-goal effort against the LA Galaxy on Wednesday night in Tucson.
That said, we'll be unveiling a new goal song in 2012. We have several songs in mind, and will be launching a poll with 8-10 songs to let fans vote on the new goal song.
Before we get the poll going, we'd like to give you guys a few days to suggest songs you'd like to hear as the 2012 goal song.
So, post in the comments if you have anything in mind, and if possible, post a link (youtube, spotify, etc.) so everyone can listen!
Have a great weekend, and be sure to catch the Revs take on the New York Red Bulls on Saturday night at 10 p.m. ET, live on MLSSoccer.com
We've got a Bigfoot situation on our hands here in Tucson.
No, we didn't actually spot a Yeti, although that would be pretty cool. We'll post that video if we do. What we do have is Benny Feilhaber talking about an allegedly breathtaking goal he scored during yesterday's training session. The problem is – much like with Bigfoot – we didn't capture the goal on film. So all we have to go by is Benny's vivid description.
With some prodding from anxious onlooker Chris Tierney, Benny was adamant that he mention this alleged goal during yesterday's post-training interviews. Now it's up to you to watch and decide if it actually happened. I suppose it wouldn't be all that outrageous for Feilhaber to score a highlight-reel goal. There was that whole 2007 Gold Cup Final against Mexico thing.
If you haven't yet had a chance to check out the Revolution's updated preseason roster, I'd suggest you do so here. There were quite a few new faces in camp for the first training session here in Tucson this morning and the roster was necessary even for those of us who've been around for the entire preseason.
All told, there are 10 players currently in camp with the Revs who are not under contract with the club, which accounts for approximately one-third of the players in camp. Included in that group are Supplemental Draft picks Alec Purdie, Michael Roach and Rick Smith.
Also traveling with the Revs to Arizona were Blake Brettschneider, Gabe Mercier and Jeremiah White, all of whom had spent time in camp with the Revolution prior to this trip. Joining the club here in Tucson were four fresh faces: Italian midfielder Luisito Campisi, British defender Tom Cruise, German defender Florian Lechner and Swedish forward Bjorn Runstrom.
Last Thursday we held our annual promotional photo/video shoots at Gillette Stadium. It was a whirlwind day, as the players visited three different stations set up throughout the stadium to cover all of the photo and video needs for us creative types to work our magic with. Over the coming weeks and months you'll see the products of the shoots on ads, billboards, TV Broadcasts, wallpapers and more. What you won't see in these media are the photos below.
And as you may have seen on Twitter, A.J. Soares had a camera crew from Comcast SportsNet following him throughout the shoots and that video should surface sometime in the near future on Comcast SportsNet.
Enjoy! Photos by David Silverman.
You're in the shot, dude
"A.J. Soares here, tell us what you think of photo day so far."
"Oh, Hey!"
Uh, can you fix your hair, please? And sit up straight!
"Hey check out my quad!"
The guys made Kelyn laugh. A lot.
"Hey Chris, look what I found out back!"
"How's this?"
"Cut it out, D. You'll pay for this if you keep messing with me..."
...true to his word, Kevin made Darrius laugh so hard he ran off after two photos and had to start over
In case you were wondering, the Revs did not sign former Seattle SuperSonics, Oklahoma City Thunder and New York Knicks center Saer Sene. Different guy.

Thanks for the input David!
And FYI -- Earlier today, I spoke with somebody from Clarke's office who elaborated. Look for the post on Friday.
I didn't mention it in the post, but VFA says it is working with SPARK. Per a press release the nonprofit has "established partnerships with Detroit Venture Partners, Betaspring, Bizdom U., the New Economy Initiative, Rhode Island Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Ann Arbor SPARK and other regional start-up accelerators, investors, and incubators."
@David -- Thanks for the comment. I've updated the post to include his direct language and put in a call with Clarke's office seeking clarification. Congress is often blamed for inaction -- as opposed to action -- that led to the debt crisis, so I'm curious to hear the explanation as well.
@JacksonWolverine -- This loan is part of the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing program, otherwise known as Section 136 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. This is a bit word (as legislation often is) but according to governing documents...
"First, the statute establishes that the loans will have an interest rate that, ''as of the date on which the loan is made, is equal to the cost of funds to the Department of the Treasury for obligations of comparable maturity[.]'' In determining the date upon which the interest rate will be calculated, the Department of the Treasury will set the loan rate at the time the loan funds are disbursed. Additionally, the statute prescribes that the loans shall have a term ''equal to the lesser of—(i) the projected life, in years, of the eligible project to be carried out using funds from the loan, as determined by the Secretary; and (ii) 25 years[.]'' The statute also states that loans may be subject to a deferral in repayment for ''not more than 5 years after the date on which the eligible project carried out using funds from the loan first begins operations, as determined by the Secretary[.]'' Section 136 is silent as to whether a deferral is available for interest on the loan. In today's interim final rule, the Department interprets the deferral of repayment option to apply to only loan principal, not interest. Allowing a deferral of interest would have the effect of increasing the principal amount of the loan, perhaps beyond the authority provided by Congress for this program. Moreover, the statute allows only for deferral of ''repayment'' of a loan. The principal amount of a loan is the amount that is actually being ''repaid'' to the Government. Finally, the statute requires that all loans be made by the Federal Financing Bank. "
Long story short, they're low-interest loans with a max 25-year term. Repayment can be deferred up to five years after the project is completed, and at this time I'm not clear on how long that will take.
And, we're live: http://www.mlive.com/auto/index.ssf/2011/07/dearborn_manufacturer_wins_730.html
But of course. I'll be on a conference call with Chu and Stabenow in a few minutes.
Interestingly, in roughly 45 minutes Energy Secretary Steven Chu and Sen. Debbie Stabenow are expected to announce a $730 million federal retooling loan for a Dearborn company to help it produce lightweight, high-strength steel for fuel-efficient vehicles. Look for the news later today.
We don't have the rights to any photos of the alleged mistress. But if you're interested... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2009511/To-Catch-Predators-Chris-Hansen-caught-cheating-wife.html?ito=feeds-newsxml
Ha! We were just having that conversation in the office. Researchers in the UK actully have tested out sci-fi sounds, including Star Wars, for electric vehicles. And no, not the wookie wail. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1272218/Silent-electric-cars-Star-Wars-sound-effects-warn-pedestrians-coming.html
I'm guessing that's combined city/highway? The EPA estimates 26/36 for the basic Cruze and 28/42 for the manual ECO version.
Thanks for the comment ButterTub1. I agree that there are certainly parts of Detroit where residents lack easy access to healthy foods, as I mentioned above. However, there's a common perception that because Detroit lacks big box grocers, it does not have any good stores, which is utterly untrue.
If you study the phenomenon, you might have access to more drilled-down data, but here's a look at food deserts in Metro Detroit as mapped by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture: http://media.mlive.com/news/detroit_impact/photo/detroit-food-desert-usda-locatorjpg-e576302e8bccf14c.jpg
And I tend to believe Fogelman when he says Tuesdays are about local access. Certainly, fewer suburbanites will take time off work to travel to the city midweek than on a Saturday, but they're hoping enough local customers -- including those in need who might already be using their Bridge Cards on the weekend -- will make it worth the effort.
Certainly, organizations like Forgotten Harvest might be doing more to help those truly in need, but Eastern Market is a different beast.
Fixed, thanks much!
Thanks for the heads up. The first error was a typo, and I fixed it. The second was on purpose and will stand.
Dillon said later today that up to $33 million in revenue sharing may be available for municipalities across the state this fiscal year. Of that, $10 million may go to Detroit.
The Moroun family isn't interested in building a second bridge in Delray. They only want to twin the Ambassador, which they say would cost the bridge company considerably less because they already own some of the necessary land. Said Matthew Moroun this morning: "If you ask me to divorce myself from financial reality, I'll build it anywhere you want." Windsor, of course, really doesn't want another bridge funneling traffic downtown.
Detroit certainly has problems with corruption and post-industrial decay. No arguments there. I wouldn't dismiss Sugrue though, whose book "Origins of the Urban Crisis" provides a comprehensive analysis of Detroit's decline, including some of the factors I mentioned above. He was also on WJR today explaining his theories. Check out that interview here: http://wjrpodcasts.com/podcasts/frankbeckmann/Surgue-052311.mp3
Say what? How about clicking the link (which directs you to a story about Pugh's preference for strip club regulations).
Uh, this legislation would not cost the state a cent. It would allow Detroit to continue taxing itself at a higher rate than other municipalities.
@Grind3r You're right and I've added it to the story. I was focusing on the federal picture, as different states charged different rates.

A bestselling phenomenon among parents and educators, this book is the essential guide that offers an inspiring new roadmap for raising children.
Internationally known clinical psychologist and lecturer Wendy Mogel's sage reflections on raising children in a world where entitlement and competition abound have struck a chord with thousands of readers. In a culture whose values are often at odds with the ones parents wish to uphold and instill, The Blessing of a Skinned Knee points the way to raising self–reliant, compassionate and ethical children.
With warmth and humor, Mogel distills the wisdom of the Torah, the Talmud, and important Jewish teachings, as well as contemporary psychological insights, into nine "blessings" that address key parenting issues such as:
A practical and refreshing antidote to anxious over-parenting, The Blessing of a Skinned Knee is itself a blessing.

Some of your guys are delusional. The reason Tri-met fares are "cheap" is because it is heavily subsidized, by a gasoline tax no less. Which means, "cheap" mass transit is actually dependent upon gas guzzling SUV's and all the poor saps stuck in rush hour traffic. Ironic doesn't even begin to describe it.
With out that gas Tax your cost for a single bus ride would be north of $12.00 a ticket. So why should anyone cry and complain about MPG in a Hummer? You wouldn't be able to afford to ride with all the wonderful people that use the MAX to take a nap throughout the day.
City Hall is full of Good ol' boys and developer lackeys. The entire east side of town is riddled in potholes, and if full of schools in distress, Basically the infrastructure is falling apart and the schools are failing, Yet city hall thinks a great idea to take more from them? We should pull up pieces of busted up asphalt from the roads on the east side and stack it all around city hall, they'd never get out of the building.
My thoughts are with the family, I can't imagine what you are going through right now. For them there are hard times ahead. I hope they can be comforted in that fact that Brant loved his child so much that he gave, literally, everything he had to save him.
I grew up in Clatskanie. In high school Brant was always kind to me, and everyone in my family liked him. In later years I lost track of most of my friends from back home, and yet every time I came home for the third of July to congregate with the people I spent my young life with, Brant always called me out in the middle of a crowded bar. I never really knew what kind of man Brant became after high school, but now I do. As a teenage boy he would tear his shirt off his back for anyone he loved. And as a grown man and father, he gave his life to save his son.
I don't know if in life or death, there is anything more noble than that.
"This problem will only be solved with the help of the Feds."
Are you serious? The Feds slaughter thousands of innocent people every single year in countries all across the earth. The smartbomb weddings and funerals for christs sake, and you honestly believe that they give a flying crap about someone elses civil rights?
Oh yeah! The arm of government that brought us fantastic things such as the Patriot Act, the NDAA, "Homeland Security", and the ongoing suspension of Habeas Corpus is going to "straighten out" civil rights abuses..... lololololololol
I hope you were being satirical....
dude... Republicans are not even close to having any level of control in Oregon. And OHSU is a state run hospital. You should be yelling at the people in control, instead you freaking out on the minority party in this state? Dude... seriously...
Screw raising taxes, I didn't agree to 90% of the crap our government did. Running up the credit card like a marauding horde of school girls in a shopping mall. Bombing every country they can in the middle east, passing CRAP bill like the patriot act. Always hearing some D.C. idiot screaming "well this bill isn't perfect but it's all we have". Idiots, every single one of them. If you are going to run up a deficit like this the bills had better damn well be perfect. Neither side will even think about ending the wars they all stupidly got us into, So not only do we have to pay for the rebuilding of every country we have destroyed, we also have to pay for ours.
I'm not paying for that kind of stupidity. If they wanna fix the budget they can pull every single armed services member out of every single country they are in(over 100 countries) and bring them back home where they belong.
Thank the lord for President Obama. By God, we had better continue bombing every country we can until our currency collapses. Like the president, I also agree that we should Social Security and Medicare before we even think about slicing spending on wars and foreign aid. Who gives a crap if those seniors lived, worked and fought for this country their entire lives. I rather see a bunch of old ladies starve to death than discontinue our bombing campaigns in Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Yemen, and Pakistan. And if we have to raise the debt ceiling, and incur even more debt to make that happen, by god lets get it done!
You know Barack Obama won the Peace Prize? Because he's a peaceful man that cares about people, really, you can't make this stuff up....
Thank you Lord Obama, for cutting social security instead of ending the wars, you truly have you priorities straight. I hope the GOP comes to their senses and give you all the credit you need to rack up more bills while you slaughter thousands of people for humanitarian reasons. Perhaps in time, you will be awarded another peace prize.
I don't know why people are upset about the skyrocketing debts you have given us, I for one, am more than happy to pay homage to the almighty federal government in the hopes that you will continue the great works that you do. Raise everyone's taxes, and increase the debt limit, drop the standard of living down to nothing so we are all equally living in squaler.
I hoped for change Obama, and you gave it to me. You should me how incredibly stupid Americans are, groveling and begging for their own demise. While they cheer on the deaths of thousands in the 5 countries you are now bombing.
I truly hope you get re-elected, the last two years have been stellar.
Or you could stop spending money on killing people and bailing out billionaires. The United States does not have an income problem, it has an stupidity problem.
oh for gods sake....
Why raise the taxes on anyone? How about we just stop blowing every country in the middle east and bring all of our troops home? Instead you just want the government to keep doing all those "wonderful" things it does, like giving money to billionaire bankers, killing people in foreign countries for "humanitarian reasons", and bankrupting anything it ever touches.
Something else you should consider, you could take 100% of the net worth of every billionaire in the United States, and you would wind up with a whopping 1.3 trillion dollars. Just enough to fund medicare for a year and a half, or we could start another war. What the hell right? War is a great example of government spending, we are currently bombing 5 countries, maybe we should add a few more to that list, if we tax rich people I bet our overlords could make that happen. Given their track record, I wouldn't bet against that happening.
But sure, why not, lets give more money to the Federal Government, they manage it so well, whats to worry about?
Yes Lord Obama, we must raise the debt ceiling so you can continue bombing 5 different countries at once. And by god, if we have to cut medicare and social security to make that happen, lets do it! OBAMA 2012, FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS!
Change, hope, yes we can , or whatever......
The idiots that created this situation are the same morons trying to fix it. Forgive my lack of faith, but they can't even fund daily operations without borrowing money from someone, the federal government is a joke. Democrats are idiots, Republicans are deranged, and Americans are delusional for believing anything these intellectual lightweights tell them.
Screw the debt ceiling, I hope the entire country goes under, we deserve it for electing people like this.
epic lulz...
Lent, I respect your principled stand on the issue of firearms.
Because of that, I solemnly promise to you that I will never use a firearm of mine in the defense of you, or your family, regardless of whatever heinous crime is being committed to you or your relatives.
I will let you wait 15-20 minutes for the Portland police to arrive on the scene. But I will give the police a detailed statement on how you lectured a criminal on why guns are bad as he shot you.
remove the ordinance pertaining to open and concealed carry in Portland, and allow residents to defend themselves. People think twice about shooting someone when they know they can shoot back. While I'm sure that people will freak out and jump all over what I said, consider that a criminal doesn't give a damn about anti-gun laws, and actually would prefer a disarmed society. When people have no means to defend themselves, they get stomped.
There are hunters, and there is prey. To the average criminal, Portland is a government enforced game preserve.
Happy hunting..
Randy Leonard.... yeah.. the wheel is spinning, but the hamster is dead.
Vaccinate your kids for Christs sake, they work. How do you think we eradicated polio in this country? How do you think the Spanish flu was beaten? Medical science is not the end all, be all for sure, and yes, often times, they get things wrong, but vaccines are not one of those things. I don't think the state needs to enforce some kind of ruling requiring vaccinations, I just wish people were educated enough to understand that vaccines are not designed to kill your children.
Spend some time in a third world nation that has no medical system, private or otherwise, to speak of, and look at what the children in those places are dieing of. Kids all over the continent of Africa die of Polio every year, when a simple vaccine, taken orally, can wipe it out completely.
then you better toss out every single electronic device you got, including your IPHONE, schmuck
Keep Portland weird, liberal, and hopelessly stupid. Seems to work out so well....
but, but, but, they can't do this! Portland has gun free zones, curfews and an ordinance that forbids open or concealed carry! Don't these criminals understand that they are breaking the law? Perhaps the mayor should craft tougher restrictions, using harsh language, and printed on card-stock. And lower the curfew to 6 P.M.
That'll teach them!!!

Recipe by B Slowleigh
"After getting tired of our standard prime rib recipe (my mom's old fave), I decided to start experimenting with different tactics to cook a roast. This is what I ended up with...the pan juices alone are worth giving it a try!!...and the roast isn't too shabby either! Serve with garlic mashed potatoes and steamed green beans with slivered almonds."

1 envelope

4 cloves
garlic, minced
3 tablespoons
soy sauce
2 tablespoons
maple syrup
1 1/2 teaspoons
Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons
bacon drippings
1 tablespoon
mustard powder
1/4 teaspoon
hot sauce
1 cup
amber or dark beer
1 (5 pound)
prime rib roast
2 cloves
garlic, cut into slivers
1/4 cup
olive oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
Excellent tasting! I marinated in the fridge for 1 hour and then 2 more hours to bring it to room temp. I also used a light beer (that's all we had). This was not difficult to make, but the cook time needed much longer for my 6 lb. roast. Cooked for an hour covered, then uncovered and cooked for 1.5 hours. Then let it rest for 1/2 hour. Next time I will leave it in the oven for another 30 to 45 minutes. This was, by far, the best tasting prime rib I have ever made! The entire house smelled awesome too. Will make again next Christmas.
The best. We had two ducks, a turkey and my roast. Every one complimented the best prime rib they have tested!!!

Hope this article will help but I'm willing to bet every F1 article this weekend and the following races will have a bunch of people whining, "You guys didn't show qualifying blah blah blah" calling NBC crap, accusing them of not caring, etc.
- herogoesallin - Oct 30, 2013 at 1:06 PM
thanks for this service. f1 rocks!
- apexassassin - Oct 30, 2013 at 4:30 PM
Nice to see this in advance of the weekend!!! And also that NBC is willing to use their other channels to show LIVE F1 coverage.
All in all, it's been a good first season for NBCSports and F1 together. Still plenty of room for improvement though.
Kick back and enjoy the final days of screaming F1 engines! 😉

Why the change?
- f1fan1 - Oct 31, 2013 at 1:46 PM
Guessing the change is a result of conflicts with Premier League games. In any case, glad to have somewhere to watch live qualifying.
- peedoffatnbc - Nov 16, 2013 at 8:34 PM
Are you kidding? People applaud this? So for the US Grand Prix: Practice on NBC Sports, Qualifying on CNBC and the actual race on NBC itself? Too bad I didn't know this and missed live qualifying.
- lautenwerk - Nov 16, 2013 at 11:23 PM
Watched "live" qualifying of the US Grand Prix today… With 10 minutes left in Q2 they broke for commercial. When they came back after about 4 minutes of commercials, qualifying was over, done, finished. Drivers were being shown at weigh in. The curling which preceded F1 went way over its scheduled time, but I thought that NBC would at least then show the whole of F1 qualifying. No such inclination on the part of NBC. This is the home Grand Prix for NBC, the US Grand Prix, a chance to win some fans over here. What a waste. Disrespectful of the sport and fans, but really not much of a surprise, given their reputation for making a hash of the Olympics and other major sporting events.
- black2kgsr - Nov 17, 2013 at 1:37 AM
So it wasn't just me. I thought maybe my DVR screwed up. I was very angry with this situation. I enjoy qualifying almost as much as the race, and it was ruined. How does something like that even happen?! And this is the only mention of it that I could find. Did nobody else notice?

Partners put projects on the map
Explore the Partnerships that make up the National Fish Habitat Action Plan
The Pacific Marine and Estuarine Fish Habitat Partnership, one of 19 nationally recognized fish habitat partnerships in the United States, is providing financial and other support to three projects in 2015 that will help restore fish passage, enhance fish and wildlife habitat, maintain and improve hydrologic conditions, and characterize the temporal and spatial patterns of fish assemblages. PMEP, a consortium of federal, tribal sovereign nation, state, local government, and nonprofit organizations, will provide support to the following projects:
(Washington, DC) - The National Fish Habitat Partnership (www.fishhabitat.org) has unveiled its list of 10 "Waters to Watch" for 2015, a collection of rivers, streams, estuaries, lakes and watershed systems that will benefit from strategic conservation efforts to protect, restore or enhance their current condition. These voluntary, locally-driven projects represent conservation actions in progress implemented under the National Fish Habitat Partnership by 19 regional Fish Habitat Partnerships throughout the country.
An assessment of AMD sources and impacts in 1987 concluded that mitigation of AMD in the Aaron Run watershed was feasible. Project funding for AMD mitigation was initially obtained in 2005. Project implementation, conducted by MDE's Abandoned Mine Land Division, occurred through 2011. The project included construction of one limestone doser, one limestone leach bed, two successive alkalinity-producing system cells, and one oxidizing pond (Figure 2). The project also created 1 acre of treatment wetlands and restored 600 linear feet of eroding stream bank. In 2012 the Maryland Department of Natural Resources' Fisheries Service restocked Aaron Run with native brook trout.
