SLIDESHOW: U's cheer up young fans ill in hospital
Posted: December 12, 2012|
Sick children staying in Addenbrooke's had something to smile about when some footballers paid them a visit.
Players from Cambridge United descended on three children's wards at Addenbrooke's yesterday to spread some festive cheer – chatting to the youngsters, their parents and staff.
Patients were handed goody bags containing a T-shirt bearing the Cambridge United centenary logo, a wristband, a match day programme and sweets.
Rev Stuart Wood, the club chaplain and minister at Barnwell Baptist Church in Cambridge, said the visit from players including Tom Elliott, the U's leading goal scorer this season, and the club captain Kevin Roberts, gave the children a boost.
He said: "The play team [at the hospital] were saying that some of the people who haven't smiled, or haven't smiled for days, smiled and it made their day.
"The children that wanted to see a player or some of the players were thrilled – as were the parents and staff.
"It just brightens their day a little bit, it helps boost their spirits, really."
Mr Wood said the annual pre-Christmas visit by players was positive not just for the patients but for the players as well.
He said: "I think it's good for the club to do it. We are striving hard to make the club more community-focused, more community minded. It helps the players to appreciate what they have and what a privileged position they are in."
The footballers did a sterling job chatting to the children on subjects including what they wanted for Christmas and where they were from, he added.
Saffron Apparel donated the T-shirts in the goody bag and Sainsbury's provided the sweets.

Okay, I've had a positive ANA 1:320 for SLE so my PCP sent me to a Rheum. who therefore ran several test and called me today and said so far I don't have SLE (my CSR, ESR and anti-phos and UA are normal except for a UTI, but there is one more test that will take a few more days called a Reiter test and they will call back regarding those results, but actually I guess they are saying I don't have lupus and are referring me back to me PCP for my shortness of breath and then I might need to see a pulmonologist. So what do I have then I feel like I'm 80 years old, daily headaches, joints in hands, hips, feet and now my neck is hurting, short-term memory prob's, neuropathy in feet and hands, rash on face, chest and abd., fatigue, achiness all the time. My friend suggested I see another Dr. but this Dr is a University Dr? Go figure! Sorry I'm just frustrated cause when you feel like crap all the time and now they are saying theirs nothing wrong with you, it's depressing. :?

Gotta say today this was the best back workout I've ever had. This is definitely an area that I've been working hard to develop, this as well as my chest. Everything is coming along greatly, one more week to blast out this month, and I will finish it strong, I want this with a passion. I figure the only person that can beat me now is myself and I have faith in God that He won't let that happen. Next month I'll be experimenting with fascia stretching, been reading a lot about this, and I wish I would had found this sooner. Pain has never bothered me so I'm ready to see what kind of results I can get in the month of February.

City man, 19, flees from police
COAL TOWNSHIP - A 19-year-old Shamokin man is in Northumberland County Prison holding cell this weekend after allegedly running from state troopers and local law enforcement, only to have been apprehended and found with various drug substances.
According to a police report filed by state Trooper Justin Rosboschil of the Stonington police barracks, Cody Zacchaeus Horne, of South Market Street, fled in his vehicle when Rosboschil attempted to stop him for multiple code violations at approximately 2:47 a.m. Sunday in the area of Route 61 and Hospital Drive.
As he sped through Coal Township, he allegedly committed multiple traffic violations, police said.
Horne then stopped his vehicle and attempted to flee on foot, police said.
When the teen was apprehended, he was allegedly found with marijuana, cocaine and methamphetamine, police said.
Charges were filed by Rosboschil in the office of Magisterial District Judge John Gembic, Shamokin.
Reports of guns drawn and Horne being taken in by Tasers were not confirmed.
Coal Township Patrolman Terry Ketchem, Joshua Wynn and Jason Adams were involved in the incident.
A representative from the prison said late Sunday afternoon that Horne was being held in a holding cell until his arraignment can be processed.
No further information could be obtained Sunday.

There is new kid in school, his name is CampusLIVE, and wants to act as every college kid's 24/7 RA (Resident Assistant) by providing all the information you need to know as a student on campus.
The new social community website aggregates information a college kid needs to know. Besides the usual, like weather, there are customized news feeds (CNN, Boston Globe, Philly.com, Fox News, MSNBC, and even Playboy, and much more), customized search feeds; that include Google, YouTube, Wikipedia, Amazon, Flickr, Technorati and much more. In addition, each school's page has 'quick links' that feature necessary housing and health information, local public transportation schedules, dining services, registrar information, library, academic calendars and more.
They also feature a great Food Finder feature that allows students to find local eateries, their contact information, whether they offer dine-in, delivery and take-out options, and they offer online menus for each in their system, as well as the ability to leave public reviews for each.
CampusLIVE also understands the need for a college kid to know what is on TV at all times – therefore implementing the ability to find TV listings using the TVGuide.com system.
One thing you might think after reading the above would be 'another Facebook', but they aren't. Actually, they have gone as far to integrate with Facebook so that students can actually see their live Facebook messages from their homepage. They also have plans to tie in other social networks that are popular to students such as LinkedIn, MySpace, and I assume Twitter, Digg, and maybe a few others might join the force @ some point.
CampusLIVE started in UMass and has grown to cover 26 universities in nine states. They are doing well – in terms of providing useful information for students, and in a concise and clear manner. However, they need to focus their growth overall, in terms of adding more schools, and integrating more customizable features that will allow students not only have access to useful information, but also build a virtual dorm room. So for each school, they can go beyond just providing a portal for useful information, but access to teachers, other students, virtual blackboards, and so on.
CampusLIVE was started by a group of UMass students, and finished in the top 5 of Business Week's Top 25 Entrepreneurs Under 25 in America 08′. CampusLIVE employs five full-time people, and interns, and had just over $100,000 in revenue during 2007. The company is currently negotiating a $1.25 million investment deal, according to Business Week. They are also looking to lease office space in Boston, moving themselves into an office and out of the dorms.
I love their business model and opportunity to strike while the iron is hot, so to speak. I just hope they do it now, and push aggressively – as you never know what the landscape for a model like this might look like in a year.
They need to build up their school database offering – at the same time, it opens up a huge door for advertising opportunities, which they must take advantage of – especially if they have angel investors now involved. You don't want to have to carry their weight for too long, and obviously wish to become profitable in the next three years in a major way.
They have a great platform here to also explore partnerships of all kinds; building on all the above – sets themselves up nicely for an aggressive business build – before 'selling' to a top organization, i.e. Google, Yahoo, etc…in five years or so.

Read Poems by
Monique Steenkamp
Do I have what it takes to put this straight?
I know deep inside I don't want to fake
It's time for me to take back my life
With you holding so tight I can't survive
Did controlling me make you feel strong?
Made me numb for way too long
You need to be a man and let me go
Can't pull me down just because your spirit is low
Tell me did breaking me make whole?
I hope you got something out of stealing my soul
Held my heart in your hand only to destroy
Telling me how to behave like I was a toy
But your twisted fairytale is coming to an end
Welcome to my reality where lies don't easily mend
Your punishment won't succeed when your power is gone
You might have scarred me but the battle you never won
Now I walk on a set path where I reign
Have no time for you and your pathetic game
Find someone else to shift around in your fantasies
My life your will never again have to seize

Cloud keeps Boston businesses running without power
On March 13 Boston's Back Bay neighborhood was plunged into darkness following a transformer fire that left thousands without power. Among those effected were the two largest office buildings in Boston, the Prudential Center and the John Hancock Tower. Thousands of workers in these buildings were without power and appeared headed for a day without business.
Thanks to cloud technology, the following morning went on as normal.
Boston businesses, both big and small, are singing the praises of mobile file sharing and cloud technology for allowing them to work remotely.
Many corporations saw their work-from-home systems traffic nearly triple and found that because of mobile file hosting services were able to save face for the business day.
"We're all working from afar. We have email access and cellphone access," said Charlie Gifford, general partner of equity firm New Heritage Capital to the Boston Herald.
Gifford told The Boston Herald that the company had moved its files to cloud storage only nine months prior, and without the technology would have lost the entire business day.
"It's paid for its weight in gold," Gifford concluded.

I have always been wary or very particular with fusion dishes. It could either go horribly wrong or oh so very right. I am amazed when two worlds are able to blend in so perfectly together and at the same time horrified if a monstrosity has been created. But love 'em or hate 'em, people will continue to pursue this art of fusion cooking.

I was at first excited when my friend recommended Madeca to me because I knew it served Mexican food. I LOOOOVVEE taco, burritos and all that jazz despite being messy dishes. Madeca is actually located right beside the Cinemas of Podium, right at the top floor. It doesn't look like a fancy place unlike the New Bombay restaurant that was nearby but it had a cheerful ambiance because of the soft green colors. I gasped though when I looked at the menu - SISIG TACO. What the heck is sisig taco? I then found out that it was a Filipino-Mexican restaurant. Madeca actually stands for MAnila de aCApulco. A brief history lesson for everyone: during the Spanish colonial period, the Galleon Trade between Manila to Acapulco, Mexico was a booming industry which brought in various treasures and of course cookng styles to the Philippines. It kinda made the Spaniards very rich here.

A 72-year-old woman from Chembur was attacked at her home on Friday by a man pretending to be from a courier firm.
Anusaya Parash Dhyani was stabbed under her arm by the man whom neighbours descri-bed as being in his 20s.
He had come to the house under the pretext of taking Dhyani's signature on a courier document.
The woman, however, escaped certain death after neighbours rushed to her aid when she raised an alarm.
"The man had asked the senior citizen to open the safety chain, saying he needed her signature on the document. But, as soon as she opened it, the man barged into the house. He first tried to choke the woman and then stabbed her under the arm," said Qaiser Khalid, additional commissioner of police (East region).

"Delicious, authentic Dutch butter cake. This cake is moist with a great almond flavor - a favorite in most Dutch households!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

Watch video tips and tricks
1 cup
butter, softened
1 1/2 cups
white sugar
eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon
almond extract
2 1/2 cups
all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons
baking powder
almond halves
I am from Holland and can definitly say that this tastes pretty authentic. If you want perfectly authentic, put it aside and eat it the next day. Excellent! Yummm
This comes pretty close to Opa's authentic Boterkoek, and I must agree with Debora T. that it tastes more authentic the next day. I recommend letting it sit out for a night before eating it. I sprinkled sliced almonds on top after applying the egg wash. Also, we like it a little more dense, so in subsequent batches I used only a teaspoon of baking powder
31 Ratings
Delicious! I used 2 tsp of almond extract, and 1 tsp of lemon extract for extra flavour. I added 2 tbsp of milk to make it a little less dense,and a pinch of salt along with the flour and baking powder. Instead of brushing the egg on top I made a quick icing with powdered sugar, almond and lemon extract, and milk.
This cake was amazingly simple and delicious, which is why I'm about to make it again.
Buttery goodness. A little bit dry but thats how its suppose to be. Tasted better the next day as per other reviewers comments. A few changes made was I used self raising flour and ommited the baking powder. Didnt have almond extract so used 2 tsp vanilla & 1/2 tsp rum extract. Pleace macadamia nuts on the top of the cake before baking. Simply delicious..would make it again! Dh loved it.
I just made this recipe for friends and it was demolished. This is very, very good. I will be making this one again and again. I did make one change, I suggest adding 1/2-1 teaspoon of vanilla extract along with the almond extract. It mellows the almond out a little, otherwise it becomes too overpowering.
This was really good, though with a little more almond extract than I liked. I also dusted it with powdered sugar. Great dessert!
So yummy! If you want it to taste amazing....put a layer of almond paste in the middle!!!!! So good and thats how my Oma always makes it! YUM!

Lesson Tee
Steal My Feel
Hit balls with your eyes shut
At the end of a range session, I like to hit about 10 driver shots with my eyes closed. I'm looking when I get into my address, but before I take the club back, I shut my eyes and don't open them again until I'm holding my finish. It's a good way of instilling everything I've just worked on and want my body to remember the next time I practice or play.
When you can't see the ball, you become highly aware of the movements in your swing. You get a strong sensation of your posture and balance, like how much your spine is tilted and how your weight transfers between your feet. You also swing in control because you're nervous that you might miss the ball. I don't do this with my irons, because taking divots blind doesn't seem like a smart thing to do. But with the driver, which you hit on the upswing -- and which conveniently has the largest clubface -- it's a fun drill to help retain the good things you've figured out.

It might appear that I'm a broke record of late and honestly, I don't know what's up with that. All I can say is I seem to be seeing a lot of movies this month that aren't anything spectacular. Take today's film for example. I've watched The Innocents twice and while it's good I'm not considering it one of the best psychological horror films according to Martin Scorsese (hmm he's making his second appearance in the references this week). I applaud the cinematography, the story, and the acting from Deborah Kerr and Martin Stephens. The idea of sexual repression comes through loud and clear, one of the reasons this film is so groundbreaking. Put it all together and it makes a fine movie, but one I can't see myself rewatching again and again.
Lonely governess Miss. Giddens (Deborah Kerr) is given the job of watching two neglected children. The girl Flora (Pamela Franklin) immediately takes to Miss. Giddens but Flora's brother Miles (Martin Stephens) has been recently expelled from school for reasons he won't divulge. When Miss. Giddens learns of what happened to the last governess and her lover, Miss. Giddens believes that the two are trying to be resurrected by possessing the souls of the children.
Apparently The Innocents is based, in part, on Henry James' The Turn of the Screw. Unfortunately I didn't take that class this semester so I've never read the book. Regardless, it does have a Gothic atmosphere that permeates the frame from the old house, the costumes, and the sexual repression. The time period of the film is never stated but it's safe to say it's steeped in the Victorian era and opens itself up to Freudian analysis. The crux of the plot is Miss. Giddens fear that the children have been corrupted by witnessing the sexual depravity of their former governess, Miss. Jessel and her lover, a man named Peter Quint (Peter Wyngarde). Interestingly, one of my classes has been discussing the Victorian fear of children discovering their sexuality and creating a secret around it. Ironically, the need to make sex a secret ended up making it the worst kept secret around and only heightened interest in it (really has the world changed since?). With that the film explores the fear of innocence being corrupted and the need to keep people in the dark about their own sexuality. Miss. Giddens also finds herself unable to cope with sexuality, forcing the children to "confess" to what they've seen as a means of absolving their sins, but also allowing her to discuss sex in some way.
It's safe to say this is an overwhelming role for any actress and Deborah Kerr rises to the challenge. I've only seen Kerr in this film (you don't need to tell me, I already know) but she is astounding. The character of Miss. Giddens appears to be a pseudo-Mary Poppins with her enthusiasm and dedication to her job and her charges. She genuinely loves children, especially Flora who she has a sweet rapport with, and in the opening scenes she appears to be infatuated with their uncle (Michael Redgrave). As her concern for the children increases she keeps mentioning going to talk to their uncle but never does. Is this her own psyche preventing her from visiting him due to her attraction for him? It's apparent that Miss. Giddens has issues with men as not only does she have a problematic relationship with the uncle but her relationship with Miles and, in a way, to Peter Quint is disturbing. Quint keeps terrorizing Miss. Giddens and yet he's supposed to be dead! As she learns more about Quint and his sexual hold on Miss. Jessel, it appears our new governess serves as a proxy to Miss. Jessel, craving Quint in a way and causing him to manifest. It could also explain her views towards Miles being possessed. From the minute the young boy and the governess meet there's an attraction (it's creepy just typing that up). When the two are riding in the carriage after Miles has been kicked out, Miss. Giddens looks at him intently and it's obviously not purely because she wants to derive why he was kicked out of school.
The child stars round out the cast well, creating two characters that could either be harmless children or possessed lovers. I feel they're the former but the argument obviously is there for the latter. Pamela Franklin is adorable as the precocious Flora but she doesn't hold a candle to Martin Stephens as Miles. You might recognize Stephens' name as he was the head of the bizarre alien children in the original Village of the Damned which came out a year before this. The role of Miles is completely different from that of David in Village of the Damned. Where David was an automaton, Miles is a mini-adult. He's creepy in how sexual and flirtatious he is with Miss. Giddens. He's obviously mature and older in his mind than his age allows. He's perceptive and understands that his uncle doesn't care for him. It could be argued his relationship with Miss. Giddens is a desire for attention and his confusion of sexual attraction with the love of a parent; going back to the corruption of children who discover their sexuality. The film came under fire for the relationship between Miles and Miss. Giddens. Miles calls the older woman "my dear" and shares a kiss, on the lips, with Kerr twice.
The Innocents is supposedly he most expensive use of the CinemaScope technology and it's used to beautiful effect. Vertical lines break up the composition of the frame and characters are often times placed at opposite ends of the frame. The expanse of the frame itself looks fantastic and no matter the size of your television each shot looks huge. The film showcases the empty spaces and with the element of shadows in several scenes it appears like the characters are the only things in the darkness. When Miss. Giddens walks around with a candle the area around her is pitch black making her appear to be in an otherworldly plane. The strongest scares are when things you don't expect glide out of the darkness such as the face of Peter Quint. At least twice in the film Quint's face appears at a window and it's perfectly executed both times. The first time is when Miss. Giddens is standing at the window during a game of hide and seek. You don't expect something to pop out behind her since a statue is in the garden. You believe if anything that statute will get in the way of any scare. Nope, that's what makes the Quint moment so frightening because he seems to be inhabiting a different space away from the statute. Quint's face itself is frightening for the lecherous and sexual quality of it. You take one look at this guy and it's apparent he's got dark intentions. There's also several staircase shots that are beautiful to behold (I'm a sucker for staircases, particularly spiral ones).
Is Miss. Giddens really seeing ghosts or is her sexual repression getting the better of her? The film doesn't present an answer and that works. I'm not a huge fan of The Innocents but I enjoy the story and acting. The scares are effective and the use of darkness makes everything infinitely more ominous because you can't see what's not immediately in the beam of candlelight. The Innocents is the perfect movie to watch on a rainy night in the dark!

Picture this: you write all your documents in Microsoft Office. You have important information, presentations and research data.
In 30 years from now, Microsoft Office will be history, Microsoft will not exist anymore, computers will be smaller than our mobile phones and extremely powerful.
Remember your Office documents? Well, no one use them anymore, Google has a very powerful Office suite Mindly that has support for mind reading, automatic translation and spell checking, conceptual summarizing and online brainstorming. This application doesn't read the deprecated doc files, and no one complains. Most people have converted their Office documents to the new formats many years ago. Including yourself.
But you discover you've still got some important documents on a backup disk. Nobody can find you a Windows system with Office. And you stare at the binary files with your great ideas. The proprietary formats were once reverse-engineered, but Microsoft destroyed all the information about that.
So now, 30 years before that, you can make a choice. In what format do you save your documents? XML, text files and PDF documents are a better choice.

The East Tennessee State basketball team went into Cassell Coliseum and held its own with Virginia Tech to open the season a year ago.
With plenty of fresh faces on both sides, ETSU coach Murry Bartow isn't sure what the experience will be worth today when the teams tip off a new season. Gametime is 2 o'clock.
"These are different teams, and with them having a first-year head coach, we're going in totally blind," said Bartow, who enters his 10th season at ETSU. "We know some of their personnel – (Erick) Green is a very good player, (Jarell) Eddie is a very good player, and (Robert) Brown hurt us inside last year – but we just don't have much of a scouting report."
The Bucs trailed the Hokies by four with less than two minutes left in the last meeting before losing 64-53. Virginia Tech went on to finish the season with a 16-17 record, and coach Seth Greenberg, a good friend of Bartow's, was fired.
Johnson was promoted from assistant coach, taking the reins of a program that was picked 10th in the Atlantic Coast Conference preseason poll.
ETSU, meanwhile, was picked in the middle of the pack in the Atlantic Sun Conference.
The Bucs lost three double-figure scorers who accounted for over 37 points and 18 rebounds for a 17-14 team. The new roster includes two junior-college transfers, three true freshmen and redshirt freshman Lester Wilson.
Wilson scored a game-high 17 points last Saturday as the Bucs held on to defeat Carson-Newman 71-63 in their only exhibition game of the preseason. Venturing to Blacksburg will be a much different challenge.
"We played a Division II team a few days ago and had to make some plays at the end to win," said Bartow. "Now we're playing an ACC team on the road, so we've got a lot of work to do. We've got an incredibly coachable team; we just need game experience.
"We'll play eight or nine guys this weekend, and at least six of them didn't play at all for us last year."
Senior guards Sheldon Cooley and Marcus Dubose are the only seasoned players. Cooley scored 10 in that last game with the Hokies.
"We fought pretty hard, and it was a close game all the way through," said Cooley. "We just didn't execute at the end, but we were right there."
The Bucs didn't see Green in that game. The 6-3 guard, now a senior with 941 career points, sat out with an injury but ended up leading the team in scoring (15.6), assists and steals for the season.
Tyrone Garland led the Hokies with 13 points. Brown had 12, and freshman Dorian Finney-Smith had 10 points and 16 rebounds in his college debut.
Finney-Smith has since transferred to Florida.
Bartow will start a true freshman, Petey McClain, at point guard today. That allows Cooley to move over to shooting guard and gives the Bucs a little experience coming off the bench with Dubose.
"Personally, I prefer playing the 2," said Cooley. "Petey is more of a quarterback for our offense, and I'm confident he's going to play well. When I play the point, I'm more of a scorer."
Dubose, the team's leading returning scorer (10.8), probably made the move easier by going 1 of 12 in the Carson-Newman exhibition. Wilson, a 6-4 wing, will also come off the bench today.
ETSU's front-court starters will be former jucos Hunter Harris (6-7, 220, Jr.) and Kinard Gadsden-Gilliard (6-5, 250, Jr.), and John Walton (6-7, 200, So.), who played in just 12 games as a freshman.
Virginia Tech's probable starters include Green and Brown (6-5, 190, So.) in the backcourt, with Eddie (6-7, 218, Jr.) and C.J. Barksdale (6-8, 232, So.) at forwards and Cadarian Raines (6-9, 238, R-Jr.) at center.
Tech holds a 14-3 advantage in the series and is 10-1 at home. The Hokies are 21-4 all-time against current A-Sun teams.

When Royalty Comes To Town
February 4, 2011
Read: 1 Corinthians 6:12-20
Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you . . . and you are not your own. 1 Corinthians 6:19
My friend Tim Davis tells the story of being in Trinidad as a little boy when Queen Elizabeth came to visit their town. He recalls going with his missionary parents to join hundreds of others who gathered to greet the queen. Waving his little flag, he watched as the entourage came down the streetfirst the soldiers, then the mounted guard, and then the limousine from which she waved to the cheering crowd. He looked on as the queen drove out of town, leaving everyone to return to life as usual. In Tims words, Royalty came to town and nothing changed!
For those of us who have accepted Jesus as Savior, there was a day when royalty arrivedin our heart. As Paul put it, our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 6:19)a reality that has huge ramifications. His residence in our life is intended to transform us to live in a way that brings glory to Him. Our relationships, the way we serve our employer, how we use our money, how we treat our enemies, and everything else in our lives should reflect the wonderful reality that royalty lives within.
Has anything changed since King Jesus came into your heart? Does your world notice or do they think He was just passing through?
By this shall every person know
That we serve God above:
His Spirit dwells within our hearts
And fills us with His love. D. De Haan
If Jesus has taken up residence in us,
the world should notice a lasting change.
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men"

Lamar's Game Notes
Nicholls' Game Notes
BEAUMONT, Texas -
The Lamar University women's basketball team looks to get back to the .500 mark in Southland Conference play as they travel to Thibodaux, La., to take on the Nicholls Colonels at 3:30 p.m. Saturday.
Lamar (10-9, overall, 2-3 Southland) comes off Wednesday's 58-56 win over visiting Northwestern State as Larry Tidwell became just the second coach in Lady Cardinals' history to reach the 100-victory plateau. Tidwell is nine victories behind Pat Park's 109 wins on the program's all-time chart.
Lamar had three players score in double figures, led by Kalis Loyd's 14 points. Monique Whittaker and Brateicka Mock had 11 points apiece. Gia Ayers set career highs with 10 rebounds and two blocked shots in the win.
Loyd leads Lamar in scoring (15.5), rebounding (6.2), assists 58, blocked shots (11), steals (42), field goal percentage (.471) and minutes played (593).
A win over the Colonels would put LU into third place in the East Division, pushing them past Nicholls (10-9, 3-3).
Nicholls has already equaled last season's Southland Conference win total and its 10 overall wins are the most since the 2001-02 team went 11-16. Leslie Sumar leads the Colonels in scoring at 16.3 ppg. Alisha Allen averages 14.2 points and team-leading 6.6 rebounds per game.
The Colonels have lost three of their last four, including a 68-53 loss at McNeese State on Monday night.
Lamar leads the all-time series 17-12, and has captured the last seven meetings. Tidwell is 6-0 all-time against the Colonels.
Saturday's game will be broadcast live on LamarCardinals.com.
Following Saturday's game, LU returns home to Southeastern Louisiana in Southland Conference game at the Montagne Center at 7 p.m. Wednesday. For ticket information, call (409) 880-1715, or visit LamarCardinals.com.

Hull City: Danny Graham moves towards exit as new strike force planned
Posted: January 16, 2014|
DANNY Graham's future at Hull City has been placed into doubt after a couple of clubs sounded out Sunderland about taking the out-of-sorts striker on loan.
Despite the departure of Egyptian striker Gedo back to his former club Al Ahly, and with Nick Proschwitz continuing to attract
interest on the continent, Graham's future at the KC is also uncertain.
Graham ended his 11-month goal drought, stretching to 28 games, with his first goal in City colours in the 1-1 draw at Swansea back on December 9, but has struggled to get a start since the 3-2 Boxing Day defeat by Manchester United.

Hull City: Medical underway for Shane Long after bid accepted by West Brom (updated)
Having only featured as a non-playing sub for the 2-0 home defeat by Chelsea at the weekend, the 28-year-old has this week seen his spot placed under even
further pressure by the arrival of £7.5m record signing Nikica Jelavic, and the expected signing of Shane Long from West Bromwich Albion.
With manager Steve Bruce certain to start new signing Jelavic in Saturday's trip to Norwich, that would put Graham out of the picture for a second successive week.
Parent club Sunderland are closely monitoring the situation and could opt to invoke their recall clause.
After investing more than £5m in the hitman in the last January transfer window, the Black Cats don't want to see his stock diminish too much as they remain keen to recoup a sizeable portion of the fee paid to Swansea for his services.
While manager Gus Poyet will not recall Graham to aid his side's relegation fight, he would be willing to loan him to a Championship club chasing promotion in a bid to get him on the goal trail.
Bruce and the Tigers are aware of the interest in Graham and are also monitoring the situation closely as his departure would free up another loan place and allow City to borrow from a Premier League side.
If Graham were to leave the KC before this weekend, it could allow the Tigers to scour the market for another loan addition whilst they try to wrap up the finer details of Long's protracted move.
City have agreed a fee with the Baggies, but are now trying to iron out the finer points of the repayment plan in a bid to find a stance which suits the needs of both parties.
The Tigers are known to like to pay most of their transfer fees up front, but the chase for Long may see them stagger payments to allow them to free up more cash in the short term.
Whether that would mean City boss Bruce being handed even more money towards his transfer kitty remains to be seen, but if a loan space did become available City are believed to be keen to use it.

On March 15 2010, I took our van in to replace what I thought to be a simple replacement of a cooling fan relay. A job I thought would be roughly 300.00 dollars. Once inside the shop, it was suggested that spark plugs be replace, which was coming up anyway. I allowed that, only to find that for some reason they pulled wheels and said that tie rod ends and bushings were faulty and had to be replaced. I am not a mechanic, so have to trust people.
The van was road tested after all this and yet they missed the real problem where the noise was at the rear wheel driver side. I talked to two other mechanics and both asked why the wheels were pulled in the first place, since this was not what the van was brought in for in the first place.
The end result, instead of a bill for the relay and the spark plugs, I ended up with a bill of over 1,700.00 dollars. They now THINK the noise is a driver side rear wheel bearing that nobody picked up on in the road test. The likelihood that we will buy another Chrysler product is slim to none. Something is not right here and we are very unhappy with whole event. It appears that there will be an additional cost of another 300.00 plus dollars. Where does it end? Thank you for giving us all this added expense.
Purchased my 2005 Chrysler Town and Country minivan new in 2005, it has 51,500 miles on it. Started getting a noise which I believed was in the steering. The dealer is now repairing the vehicle at a cost of $1200 to replace the cylinder and reservoir with a possible additional charge of $500 if the pump is out. $1700 is a chunk of change to spend on a vehicle with only 51,500 miles on it.
You can say what you want about the recalls announced by Toyota but my other cars have always been Toyotas and I never spend $1700 in repairs on all five of them combined. Never again will I purchase a Chrysler, Dodge, Ford or Chevy product, never.
VISALIA, CALIFORNIA -- We began having an electronic problem about six months ago with our 2006 Chrysler Town and Country. At the time it was 2 1/2 yrs old. For all these six months it has been in the shop 7 times, the Chrysler Dealership where we bought it has said they cannot fix it. They, themselves manufactured the car. This same dealership, wants to wash their hands of the whole thing. We feel that a Van only 3 yrs old, to have a major problem like this is devastating. This is a new car, we should get many more years out of this van! This is such an unbelievable thing! This is exactly why Chrysler needs a bail-out! But do they stand by their products? No they don't. Beware of buying from Chrysler.
I was driving to work last week and spotted a mini van-Dodge. The bumper sticker on the back said Elect Ronald Reagan. Sure looked like the original sticker. Never had a Chrysler but may consider in future considering age of vehicle. A real blast from the past Reagan and the van.
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA -- Our 2005 Chrysler Town & Country AC leaks water condensate inside the vehicle. We did not find that out until the carpet inside started molding - there is no physical way to notice that until the mold appears because the water leaks under the floor mats. We have now 37280 miles on the van - wouldn't you know it? 1280 over the warranty mileage. We are still within the 3 year warranty period, but...
We called Chrysler to find out about our options because as I mentioned earlier we believe this issue has happened before the warranty expiration. There is no real way to notice the issue until later... more than 1280 miles later... of course high and mighty Chrysler does not acknowledge that and will not do anything about (call reference # **).
Oh yeah... and we took our kids to day care everyday in a moldy car... until we found out... now we drive with windows open and no AC in the Florida heat. Furthermore, this van has had 2 recalls already and 1 major repair (dash board lights and CD went out). All this in 2 years since we owned... What junk!!!
HAMPTON FALLS, NEW HAMPSHIRE -- I own a 2002 Chrysler Town & Country LXi (original owner). This past April with just under 39K miles on the odometer I noted a whirring noise from the engine compartment that grew progressively louder over the course of several weeks. I suspected a bad alternator which the dealer confirmed. Since I was 3K miles beyond the 'bumper to bumper' warranty (36K miles) I assumed it would be replaced under the extended powertrain warranty.
Surprise! An alternator is not considered part of the powertrain and I had to shell out $460 to have it replaced. What really frosts me is that I paid extra for the 'heavy duty - extra capacity' alternator package when I bought this car because I tow a trailer with it.
I have owned many different cars over the years from many different manufacturers (Volvo, Saab, Ford, GM, Audi, etc.) and I have never had to replace the alternator in any of those vehicles, many of which exceeded 100K miles while I owned them. I wrote a letter of complaint to D/C customer service and received a polite form letter in return expressing regret for the problems I experienced, and that's all.
My brother-in-law also has a 2002 T&C (LX model) and guess what? He just had to pay to have his alternator replaced too and he has 58K miles on his odometer. Everyone seeing a pattern here? Bottom line - D/C quality is crap and they don't stand behind their products. This is the first and last D/C product I will ever own.
I would not advise anyone to purchase a Chrysler. My Town & Country reach 97,000 miles and began to systematically break down. Within one year my engine, electrical box, transmission, and air compressor broke down. The bad news is that Chrysler would only honor repairs cost while the car is under warranty.
My problem with that is that the car should not break down in this manner at 100,000 miles. I am now a believer that American cars are a piece of garbage. I'd rather pay $70,000 for a Lexus that has less car repair issues than $40,000 for an American car that in the long run will cost me $20,000 in repair, car rentals, and aggravation.
My advice - don't buy a Chrysler. They are built to break down and Chrysler will only stand by the warranty that YOU buy. If you have a Chrysler car once you reach 70,000 miles - start shopping around for a new car because what you have will soon go up in smoke.
COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO -- After 6 months of comparing minivans, we decided to go with the Chrysler Town and Country and purchase through Lithia dealership in Colorado Springs. We ordered a "tow package" as an option for an extra $300+ AS SPECIFIED in the brochure. When the vehicle was delivered, the "tow package" turned out to be a bundle of wires in a zip lock bag thrown into the back of the van. There were instructions on how to install the wires that required clipping the wires to existing features and splicing in the "tow package" wires. It was NOT a simple "plug in" system.
When we asked why Lithia hadn't installed the wires, they said it would cost an additional $300. We decided to have the dealership install the wires when they installed the tow hitch itself. So we ordered a hitch. For weeks we chased the dealership for delivery of the hitch and kept being put off. Finally they told us that there were no hitches available and they were on back order until January 2005, 8 months away.
So we were sold a "hitch package" for $300 that turned out to be just a bundle of electrical wires and there are no hitches to attach to the wires when you finally get them installed!! So the literature is FALSE, you CANNOT get a tow hitch for a 2005 Town and Country. But wait, it gets better. 3 weeks after finally admitting they couldn't get a hitch, Lithia of Colorado Springs charged our Credit Card for a $350 hitch!

Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff decided to condemn the US spying program on her country in a speech before the United Nations. The NSA spying program on Brazil, revealed in a story for Brazilian news outlet El Globo by Glenn Greenwald, already caused President Rouseff to cancel a trip to the US and has now led to a direct attack on President Obama before the international community at the UN.
Brazil's president, Dilma Rousseff, has launched a blistering attack on US espionage at the UN general assembly, accusing the NSA of violating international law by its indiscriminate collection of personal information of Brazilian citizens and economic espionage targeted on the country's strategic industries.
Rousseff's angry speech was a direct challenge to President Barack Obama, who was waiting in the wings to deliver his own address to the UN general assembly, and represented the most serious diplomatic fallout to date from the revelations by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.
Not only has the US spying program damaged relationships, it has caused such distrust that Rouseff and other leaders in Brazil are looking to break away from the US' domination of the internet.
Washington's efforts to smooth over Brazilian outrage over NSA espionage have so far been rebuffed by Rousseff, who has proposed that Brazil build its own internet infrastructure.
"Friendly governments and societies that seek to build a true strategic partnership, as in our case, cannot allow recurring illegal actions to take place as if they were normal. They are unacceptable," she said.
Brazil has in recent years become an economic powerhouse rising to the seventh largest economy in the world. The consequences for the NSA spying program will negatively impact the political and commercial relations between the two countries. It also moves Brazil closer to China, a key US competitor in Brazil.
Apparently spying on the world is not without cost as US businesses looking to work in Brazil will soon find out. Perhaps it is time for those Americans with international and global interests to tell the US government to back off its arrogant posture of claiming the right to spy on the world's communications. It seems such activity not only doesn't promote US interests, it hurts them.

Residents with access to the internet can now use Aylesbury Vale District Council's website to view council tax and business rates bills online.
The idea is that residents may prefer to receive their bills online rather than get them through the post. People can check their bill and make a payment at the same session.
Online bills can help residents manage their account better because they will be able to gain quick access to their bill, any time day or night, without having to wait until they receive it through the post. The system will also provide a history of all subsequent bills, avoiding the need for residents to keep a paper record to see or compare what has happened from one year to the next.
Councillor Margaret Morgan-Owen, Cabinet Member for Resources, said that the new service would benefit the council as well as local residents and businesses. She said: "No-one enjoys paying bills, but it's important we make it as easy as possible for residents and local businesses to sort out payments for things like council tax and business rates.
"Sending out business rates and council tax bills is an expensive and time consuming exercise. Residents who choose to view their bills online will help us save time and money in the future."
Residents who wish to receive their bills online will need to register for the service by following the link from the home page on the council's website or by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com
Business rate customers should email firstname.lastname@example.com
You will need to tell the council your name and council tax or business rates account number and when the next bill is produced a password, which you can change, will be given to you. Armed with this and your account number, you will be able to log on to the council's website and view your bills at any time.

Memphis-Marshall notebook: Tigers' special teams shine
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — Conference USA will, as it does every week, announce a league special teams player of the week Monday. If the conference had an award for a school's special teams' effort, the University of Memphis would be in the running, even if it dropped a 38-28 decision Saturday to Marshall.
The Tigers executed a fake punt that turned into a 61-yard pass that set up a touchdown. They pulled off an onsides kick by Paulo Henriques that led to another score. And they returned a kickoff 51 yards to open the second half that led to a scoring opportunity.
"Those were big momentum plays and we were trying to find a way to steal a possession and get the ball back," said Tiger coach Justin Fuente. "And what Paulo did, that was just a perfect (onsides) kick and it gave our guys a boost and a little fire."
The special teams play that generated the most momentum came early in the fourth quarter when Tiger punter Tom Hornsey, on fourth-and-11 from the Memphis 34, faked a punt, ran up to the line and threw a jump pass to Bobby McCain, who darted 61 yards to the Marshall 5. The resulting touchdown two plays later cut the Thundering Herd's lead to 31-28 with 9:56 left.
"There've been a lot of games in which we've installed it, but we haven't run it," Hornsey said. "This week was a good luck for us (to run it) and practiced it all week and it paid off in the game."
"(Marshall) is a big block team and we've had that (fake punt) in for a couple of opponents," Fuente said. "All that stuff is neat and fancy, but you still have to execute. That unit did a great job of executing that call."
McCain also had the 52-yard kickoff return, but Henriques had a 28-yard field goal blocked.
Microcosm of 2012
If there was a possession that exemplified the U of M's difficult season, it was the final one of the opening half.
Starting on their 37, the Tigers, trailing 17-7, moved to the Marshall 43 in two plays. On second-and-five from the 43, quarterback Jacob Karam zipped a pass to a wide-open LaMarvin Ashley near the Marshall 20. It would have been an easy touchdown, but Ashley let the ball slip through his hands.
The Tigers regrouped and moved to the Marshall 29 in the closing minute of the first half and appeared to be close to getting Henriques in position for a long field goal.
But on first-and-10 from the Marshall 26 with 22 seconds remaining, Karam was stopped five yards short of the line of scrimmage and attempted to pitch the ball back to teammate Alan Cross. The loose ball was picked up by Deon Meadows of Marshall, who fumbled.
Memphis finally recovered but instead of having one final attempt facing first-and-10 from the Tiger 43, the half ended because the Tigers called a timeout they didn't have.
Rucker's records run
The U of M's Marcus Rucker entered Saturday's game closing in on former NFL great Isaac Bruce in multiple school receiving categories. Rucker, a senior, needed 59 receiving yards to move past Bruce and into eighth on the school's career list. Rucker, a former Whitehaven High star, had 44 yards on six catches. Bruce finished his two-year Tiger career in 1993 with 1,586 yards. Rucker has 1,572.
Rucker also needed three catches to tie Bruce for seventh on the U of M's career receptions list and his six receptions moved him past Bruce and Ryan Scott with 116 and into a fifth-place tie with Russell Copeland.
Thundering (block-happy) Herd
Few teams in the country can match what Marshall has done in blocking kicks the past two seasons. The Thundering Herd has blocked 13 kicks since the start of 2011. Former Marshall standout Vinny Curry blocked three in 2011 and 5-7 receiver Jermain Kelson has had a block in each of the past two seasons. In Saturday's game, Jeremiah Taylor got credit for blocking Henriques' second-half field goal attempt. It was Taylor's second block of the year.

Capital Classic women's preview
HUNTINGTON — In women's basketball, Marshall University and West Virginia University are two programs at completely opposite ends of the spectrum.
Marshall (4-3) is trying to turn its program around under first-year head coach Matt Daniel while West Virginia (4-2) has a perennial Top 25 team under 12-year veteran coach Mike Carey. They collide at 7 p.m., Tuesday, in the Charleston Civic Center.
"Tuesday night is without a doubt a tall order," Daniel said. "It's not only about head-to-head, but also where the two programs are. Coach Carey's established a tradition and a way of how they are going to operate and we've been around a few months."
Daniel is not one to sugarcoat any scenario faced him.
He knows the Mountaineers are talented and stake their claim on making the opposing offense look bad.
On Sunday, West Virginia forced Virginia into 23 turnovers while limiting the Cavaliers to just 26 percent shooting and seven assists on 15 field goals in the Mountaineers' 54-47 win.
Marshall is struggling to find consistency on the offensive end while getting acclimated to Daniel's scheme, and such was seen over the weekend in a tournament at Eastern Kentucky when the spurty Thundering Herd dropped a decision to Jackson State on Friday before rebounding with a win over Presbyterian on Saturday.

Bogle Essential Red 2010
Other Red Blends from California
Winemaker's Notes
Rich, ripe, luscious and juicy, this compelling red blend brings together the best of Old Vine Zinfandel, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah. Unlike anything we've made before...
Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast - "This wine is sensationally rich and ripe with wild cherry, mocha, anise and tobacco flavors, with a long, spicy finish. It really impresses for sheer deliciousness. The blend is Zinfandel, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah.
Best Buy"
Wine Spectator - "This red blend offers tart cherry and jammy blackberry flavors, with zesty pepper, licorice and smoky sage notes. A no-brainer for summer entertaining."
Bogle Vineyards
Although the Bogle family has been farming since the 1800's, it wasn't until 1968 that the father and son team of Warren and Chris Bogle planted their first 20 acres of wine grapes in Clarksburg, California. Clarksburg is a small farming community nestled in the Sacramento Delta. Today Bogle Vineyards farms over 1,000 acres of wine grapes in the Delta region. While the winery was established ten years after the first grapes were planted, it has grown tremendously along with the vineyards. Bogle Winery is currently producing 100,000 cases of wine. Winemaker Christopher Smith joined the winery in 1992. He sources fruit from some of the best vineyards throughout the State of California and blends that fruit with the best grapes from our Estate Vineyards in Clarksburg. View all Bogle Vineyards Wines
About Other CaliforniaView a map of Other California wineries
California has nearly 100 American Viticulture Areas (AVAs) and accounts for almost 90% of wine production in the United States. In our section of Other California, we include wines from smaller AVAs as well as wines from the California AVA. Here are a few smaller AVAs you may see on the label:
Livermore Valley AVA, located right outside of San Francisco and home to wineries such as Wente.
Lodi County AVA, an AVA further east of San Francisco and known for its excellent, old-vine Zinfandels.
San Francisco Bay AVA, a sprawling AVA that covers Contra Costa, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz counties, to name a few. Wine that holds only the California AVA is typically a wine that includes grapes from a number of different AVAs, which leads to the general labeling of the wine as California. This does not denote the quality of the wine, only the diversity of where the grapes originate.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

This is a fascinating wine if allowed to breathe for DAYS. Otherwise, it's an average red blend. But 4 days after our first glass, with the bottle pumped, it had opened up to reveal marvelous and complex notes, including a huge note of pine - which doesn't sound great but was FABULOUS.

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

Hi all,
This just came in. I highly receommend getting a passport anyway.
Yesterday, the Departments of Homeland Security and of State issued the final rulemaking concerning the requirements of passports for land and sea border crossings under the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative. After years of development following 9/11, this ruling is the end of the process.
Effective June 1, 2009, the following rules take effect for cruise passengers:
U.S. citizens on cruise voyages that begin and end at the same U.S. port (closed-loop itineraries) must show proof of citizenship* and government-issued photo ID (such as a drivers license). A passport will not be required for passengers that fall into this category.
*Documents include: Original or certified copy of birth certificate; Naturalization papers; Consular Report of Birth Abroad issued by Department of State
All other passengers and/or itineraries (such as cruises which begin in one U.S. port and return to a different U.S. port or any cruise that begins or ends in a foreign port) will require a passport or other recognized document. For a list of accepted documents, see www.travel.state.gov.
