The UCLA Bruins men's basketball program, established in 1920, owns a record 11 Division I NCAA championships. UCLA teams coached by John Wooden won 10 national titles in 12 seasons from 1964 to 1975, including 7 straight from 1967 to 1973. UCLA went undefeated a record 4 times, in 1964, 1967, 1972, and 1973. Coach Jim Harrick led the team to another NCAA title in 1995. Former coach Ben Howland led UCLA to three consecutive Final Four appearances from 2006–2008. On March 30, 2013, Steve Alford was named the school's 13th head men's basketball coach and led the Bruins to the Sweet 16 ! Way to Play Bruins!!! Practice makes perfect for next year!
Shake Smart out of the mix at Marquette. I'd be happy with Ben Howland
I must be stupid because I am blaming USF for what happened with Steve Masiello. The school paid over 60,000 dollars for a committee to come up with Steve Masiello as the best candidate for the head coaching job. Masiello was only at Manhattan for 3 years, and had a losing record for one of them. Manhattan was suppose to win the MAAC's regular season title this year but didn't. The major reason for the success that Manhattan had this year was based around three players that were at Manhattan before Masiello arrived. For a school that is in a major conference, USF did not aim very high in getting a new basketball coach. If Marquette and Wake Forest are interested in Shaka Smart, why isn't USF. Obviously, Mark Harlan has a relationship with Ben Howland, so why wasn't Howland a candidate. USF isn't a big time school for football and basketball because they are unable or unwilling to hire big time names for those jobs.
If Bruce Pearl has to much baggage for MU then Ben Howland will never be the coach either. Is anyone 100% clean?
Hope coach Alford does what Ben Howland failed to do, use a zone defense to beat Florida! John Wooden used a zone press.
Ben Howland, Gregg Marshall, Tommy Amaker come to mind right away.
So who will it be Marquette Shaka Smart or Ben Howland? I vote for Shaka, gotta get those Chicago recruits!!
Billy Donovan praising Kyle Anderson, who he badly wanted and nearly landed as a recruit in 2012 until Ben Howland swooped in.
Really hope Marquette gets a big name. Ben Howland, Shaka Smart or Gregg Marshall would be wonderful.
I want Wake to get either Ben Howland or Shaka Smart.
Wow, Buzz Williams to Virginia Tech? Not a head scratcher to me that he left. But to Virginia Tech? I think he was really disappointed about the season and the configuration of the new Big East. But he had a bad year, so he gets Virginia Tech instead of Texas. I was sure he was leaving last year. Oh well, I love the idea of Ben Howland! A guy that's hungry, wants to prove himself again...and can keep recruits from leaving and recruit himself. Hire him this week! He said he'd only go somewhere that can win now, and Marquette is loaded with new blood, Let's Go Warriors! Good Luck Buzz, you always gave it 100 percent, but we all new you weren't gonna stick around
Leon Rice, Dan Monson and Ben Howland are my first three. Big no to Ernie Kent. Is *** Bennet available? LOL.
Really hope Ben Howland doesn't become our next basketball coach. Gonna pull a Dennis Erickson just to get his reputation back.
if I were them I take a long look at Seth Greenberg who has ACC experience as a HC and can recruit to a point and Ben Howland

Former UTEP player Terry White and former UCLA head coach Ben Howland is there for the UTEP men's basketball Orange-White Scrimmage. I met both of them for the first time after the scrimmage. Terry White plays for UTEP under late Don Haskins from 1978-82. He is the 2nd-best rebounder of all-time in UTEP men's basketball history. My dad knows him for over 30 years. Ben Howland coached at UCLA from 2003-13. He led UCLA to 3 straight Final Four from 2006-08. Before UCLA, he coached at Northern Arizona and Pittsburgh. I told him that my dad went to UCLA. I also told him that my dad really enjoy watching UCLA play under John Wooden when he was a kid. He told me John Wooden was the best coach of all-time and enjoy spending time with him while coaching at UCLA. He also told me that he hopes to meet my dad someday.

Great win by UCLA vs. Northridge, I can't believe that every win now is a gift because we could lose games not by our talent, but because of awful coaching from Ben HowBLAND. Remember fans, although the Smith transfer *** we've never lost a player who became an NBA star, or better than who was currently on the roster. Tyler Lamb would never have played with Shabazz & Adams in front of him. The Brendan Lane's, Matt Carlino's & Anthony Stover's of the world leaving are NOT the reason Ben Howland *** His Coaching is. Howland is not going to help us win games, but our talent will. This is our best chance to make the tourney, have a good run & We're 8 deep, with experience. With this talent, the pressure is on... Howland, the only way you keep your job is make the Final 4 or win a National Championship. Because you will Never have a chance like this based on your recruiting. You won't have 5 more years to pull this kind of class again.
I bet Ben Howland is getting a kick out of Tony Parker and Josh Smith being out.
Wow - Ben Howland going all Jim Boeheim and opening in a zone.

Shabazz Muhammad Declared Ineligible If UCLA is going to have a come back season, it's going to have to be with out Shabazz Muhammad. A lengthy NCAA investigation determined that multiple violations of the NCAA's amateurism rules were committed. A brother of a Bishop Gorman Coach, identified only as a financial adviser and family friend paid for multiple trips. This comes as no surprise to some as stories of athlete's receiving financial assistance to play sports at the school are constantly in the rumor mill. Sadness filled the university as UCLA athletic director Dan Guerrero indicated that it may be temporary as the University will file an immediate appeal. Head Coach Ben Howland called the ruling very disappointing and was saddened for Muhammad who he said was dealing with the review with a phenomenal attitude.

Bodmin and district grassroots sport, September 28
Posted: September 28, 2012|
Devonp't Services 43 Bude 3
September is often described as the season of plenty, but for Bude, after four successive defeats, it is anything but and they are still seeking their first league point of any kind.
That said, the fixtures schedulers haven't been kind to the Seasiders, with three of their first four games on the road, tough opponents all and Devonport Services at The Rectory last Saturday their latest hosts.
On a sunny and breezy afternoon and conditions underfoot perfect for running rugby, the home side emerged victorious, with a try scoring bonus point and all Bude had to show for their labours was a first half penalty goal from right wing Dan Pearce.
There were a few bright spots for the visitors, with No.8 Joe Wilson performing heroics, time and again picking up under severe pressure at the back of a retreating scrum and making good yardage.
And full back Harry Goodrun, making his first start of the season, was secure under the high ball and made some counterattacking thrusts from deep.
The half back pairing of Olly Mounce and Andy Yates also did sterling work around the base, to try to get their three quarter line going, but, all in all, it was another disappointing afternoon for Bude's players, coaches and supporters alike.
Tomorrow, Bude make a welcome return to home soil, with Exeter Saracens the visitors on Vice Presidents' Day when a large crowd is expected, and hopefully an improved performance.
Bude: Harry Goodrun, Dan Pearce, Duncan Tout, Olly Denford, Sam Latter (Josh Diamond), Andy Yates, Olly Mounce, Jason Bolt, Paul Cholwill (Matt Williams), Chris Allin, Will Kingdon, Luke Dunkin (Capt.), Richie Herzog, Freddie Saxton (Josh Farrar), Joe Wilson.
Scores: Devonport Services: Ben McGowan, Jason Stead, Panu Ratu, Matt Morrision, Harry Elliott, Manoa Tikoisauva (Tries), Matt Anstis (5 Conversions and 1 Penalty goal). Bude: Dan Pearce (Penalty goal).
Referee: Dan Gorfin (Exmouth - Devon RRS).
Camelford 5, Redruth Albany 25
On a glorious early autumn day at Parc Tremain, Camelford hosted Redruth Albany in the Tribute Cup.
Having had a run out against Falmouth seconds last weekend the Ford were full of high expectations.
Last minute changes to their back division were to prove the telling factor in this fixture.
Camelford had a great start as from the kick off they showed their intent to monopolise the forward game and shape the pattern.
Within 90 seconds the Ford's pack worked their way down field with some wonderful rucking and mauling and shocked the visitors when fly half, Steve French crashed over for five points. Unfortunately he failed to convert.
On ten minutes Redruth Albany were able to launch their first counter attack after a deep kick was eventually fielded. Despite the claims for a knock on, the Albany full back linked with his strong running centre and this resulted in a try wide out on the left.
An excellent conversion by the Albany scrum half gave them the lead, much against the run of play.
On 16 minutes Albany took the lead. A well placed kick was knocked on and from the resultant scrum Albany were able to make use of scrappy ball and dot down for their second try. The easier conversion was surprisingly missed leaving Albany 12-5 to the good.
On 39 minutes Redruth Albany received the first of their brace of yellow cards following a late hit on fly half Steve French, who had been making some incisive line breaks.
On 43 minutes Albany launched yet another counter attack and claimed another score, running through some indecisive defence, out on the left. The conversion went awry leaving the Ford 17-5 adrift, but still in the game.
On 48 minutes Albany lost their second player to the bin, but Camelford lost Will Baker to the yellow card on 52 minutes. Both were for tripping incidents and at this stage neither side could afford to be a man down.
Poor retention of the ball proved to be Camelford's undoing at this stage and Albany were able to use the man advantage to drive through the Ford's inexperienced, youthful 3/4s and create a penalty opportunity from 35 metres.
This was well slotted by the Albany scrum half who was becoming their most influential player.
On 60 minutes Albany were able to seal the cup win with their fourth and final try. Once again they were able to take advantage of Camelford's inability to clear their line and the unconverted try gave them a 25-5 lead.
These two sets meet again this weekend at Redruth in the league.
Panto Ponting and Chris Stevens Camelford were awarded man of the match.
Stithians 29 Bodmin 17
Bodmin RFC travelled to Stithians for a Cup game on Saturday, losing 29-17. In truth the score rather flattered Stithians.
Bodmin, lacking three regulars, brought in replacements from their second team who certainly stepped up to the mark with great performances.
Bodmin totally dominated the scrum with the engine house of Trevarthen, Williams and Hicks in the front row and Thomas and Day in the second row smashing every scrum.
Stithians game plan of kick and chase certainly worked for them in the first half with them going in at half time 17 points up.
Bodmin always knew they had more to give and stepped up their work-rate to score the first try in the second half by prop Andy Trevarthen to go under the posts from a well worked penalty move.
This really got Bodmin's tails up and again they made their way into the Stithians 22, resulting in a try scored out wide from centre Paul Carter.
Things were starting to hot up with Stithians' discipline starting to let them down and forever committing foul play and arguing with the referee.
Bodmin brought on their four replacements, Dale, Thomas, Cullip and Jenkins, which certainly upped the tempo of the game adding to Stithians players starting to drop all over the pitch disrupting Bodmin's drive.
Stithians then earned a penalty to take the score to 22-12. Bodmin never giving up, and scored another try from fly half Mark Trevarthen which he converted.
Stithians, with five minutes to go, had a rare visit into the Bodmin 22 and came away with another try to win the game.
Bodmin will know that this game should have been one if they had been more ruthless in the tackle area.
Man of the match was Sam Leburn for his industrious work around the park, followed closely again by Andy Trevarthen.
Bodmin seconds again played opponents St Ives which seem to be of two or three leagues above them.
However, this did not stop them playing some excellent rugby and come away from the game looking forward to when they will meet genuine second team opponents.
Bodmin's try was scored by returning Ben Evans. Man of the match Maculey played well followed closely by Mitch. It was also good to see Connor Dymond and Aaron Redmond playing for Bodmin.
More rugby on Page 103.
This is a slightly unusual competition in that only ladies who have won a medal competition in the last 12 months are eligible to win the Peto Cup although anyone can enter the day's medal competition.
In theory this could mean that the best round of the day does not necessarily win the cup but on this occasion there was one worthy winner of both competitions.
Norma Richards played extremely well to win the cup and take first place in Silver Division despite the cold and windy conditions.
Norma struck the ball sweetly throughout her round and had the thrill of a birdie four on the thirteenth hole. In the last 12 holes of her round Norma had five excellent pars and the birdie helping her to a score of net 72.
Chris Ball continued her run of good form to take top spot in Bronze Division with a net 74. She played the back nine particularly well enjoying pars on the 13th and 16th holes. Four shots behind were Sheila Hodson and Margaret Oliver tied on net 78. It was very difficult to separate them but Sheila just managed to claim second place on count back.
Two other achievements of note on the day were a magnificent eagle three by Linda Simpson on the 9th hole and a super birdie two by Jane Symons on the third hole.
Results. Cup Winner: Norma Richards net 72. 1st Silver: Norma Richards net 72. 1st Bronze: Chris Ball net 74. 2nd Bronze: Sheila Hodson net 78(on countback). 3rd Bronze: Margaret Oliver net 78.
In spite of a sparkling round of 66 from Welsh international Ben Westgate, giving him 38 Stableford points, David Plume hung on to win round three of the Victoria Cup at Trevose with 40 points.
Bill Cairley finished third on 37 points and Robbie Murt pipped Dennis Doano on count-back to take fourth place with 36.
Westgate, playing from a handicap of plus 3, whose scorecard included eight threes and only two fives, completed the first nine holes in 32 strokes with an eagle three on the fourth and birdies on the sixth and ninth holes.
However, Plume had also started well and at the turn led by one point.
Turning for home, Westgate birdied the tenth to draw level, birdied the 15th and had solid pars on the remaining holes apart from the 18th, where he dropped a stroke.
Meanwhile, Plume had pulled away to lead by four points at the 16th. He then made a mess of the two final holes but by that time, he had sealed a winning margin.
In return for an outstanding performance Westgate's handicap was adjusted to minus 3.6, so next time out he will play off plus four, for most of us a daunting prospect.
In round three of the Harlyn Cup, visitor Anthony Finnegan, playing off a handicap of eight, took first place with 42 Stableford points from outgoing Trevose captain Stephen Spiers on 41.
George Rumbold finished third on 39 points and Trevose professional Gary Lenaghan, playing off a handicap of plus 2, was placed fourth, on count-back, from David Cowan and Nick Gammon after all three players had finished on 38 points.
Victoria Cup (round 3): 1 David Plume 40pts; 2 Ben Westgate 38; 3 Bill Cairley 37; 4 Robbie Murt 36.
Harlyn Cup (r3): 1 Anthony Finnegan 42pts; 2 Stephen Spiers 41; 3 George Rumbold 39; 4 Gary Lenaghan 38.
Bowood Seniors visited Newquay Golf Club to play their annual match against RAF St Mawgan and came away with only one win and one halved game from an eight pairs format encounter.
There was decent weather and the course was in good shape with excellent greens all enjoyed this fixture.
Stan Martin won the nearest the pin prize at the par three, seventh and Des Pooley won the longest drive down the eighth fairway, both for Bowood.
Also taking place recently was the final of the seniors individual handicap knockout for the Trewin Trophy at Bowood Park's Lanteglos course between Mike Neicho and Leon Wagstaff.
Both had dispatched some good players on their way to the final with Mike encountering Dave Bragg, Keith Vassey, Steve Steadman and George Wass on his journey and Leon facing Bob Lemza, Barry Richardson and Dave Goodman on his.
Leon Wagstaff proved too strong for Mike Neicho in the final to take the cup making it a hat-trick of trophies for him this season having also won the Summer Eclectic competition and the Chipper Trophy.
Holsworthy Golf Club was the destination for Bowood Park for this senior's fixture and upon which the home side showed no mercy in taking full advantage of home soil by recording a resounding victory five points to one.
Nearest the pin contest at the 139 yard par three, eighth hole was won for Bowood by Alec Luckin and by Tony Houghton for Holsworthy.
Bowood Seniors enjoyed a better day when they posted a six points to two victory over their guests from Lanhydrock to win this senior's match.
Stan Martin was again on form to take the prize for nearest the pin at the par three, 14th hole as was Bruce Fletcher for Lanhydrock.

Remodeled Needham Theater opens July 7
A gleaming lobby, air conditioning and new carpeting will greet movie fans July 7 as the Needham Theater holds a grand opening celebration featuring the movie, "Pacific Rim."
"I think people will now find the Needham comparable to any movie theater off base," said Sean Haley, who has worked at the theater for 11 years, managing it for the last two.
The theater has been closed since mid-December for a $1.7 million interior renovation that brought it up to code in several areas, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
The movie will be shown at 5 p.m.; doors open at 3:30 p.m. Tickets will be available July 2 with priority given to active duty members of the military and a limit of four tickets per family. For more information, check Facebook and Twitter.
The theater is reopening 46 years — nearly to the day — after its predecessor burned to the ground. The July 10, 1967, fire razed the 25-year-old wooden structure, and the current Needham was built on the same site, opening in 1969.
"I have no idea what upgrades were done after that," Haley said, "but this renovation was definitely needed."
Besides the air conditioning, visitors will immediately notice the new lobby. Not only is the counter area new, but the walls have been refinished, the ceiling has inset lighting and three new digital flat screens will advertise menus and upcoming base activities. Later, movie trailers may be added, Haley said.
The electrical system was upgraded, allowing for an Icee dispensing machine.
"That was a big complaint, that we didn't have Icees," Haley said. "We'll be adding pretzels and churros, and later on, we'll have more frozen foods."
During previous special events, the Needham would try to serve special snacks like hot chocolate and apple cider. The result was always blown circuits.
"That won't happen anymore," Haley said.
Another big change: People can control how much butter is on their own popcorn.
"Self-dispensing butter on popcorn is really popular right now," he said.
Now that it's ADA-compliant, the theater and its restrooms can be used comfortably by people who use wheelchairs. A local Wounded Warrior who uses a wheelchair was invited to test everything out, and he gave a thumbs-up, Haley said.
Nearly all fixtures are new — from water fountains to door handles. The staircase leading to the upstairs balcony is now polished wood, and all the carpeting on the stairs and inside the theater is new.
The theater seats, curtains and sound boards were redone a few years ago. But the stage lighting was never updated, so it was all replaced with an LED system to make it brighter and more energy-efficient.
Some of the remodeled areas won't be seen by most movie-goers. The wooden stage floor was sanded down and refinished. The dressing rooms behind the stage were redone with new fixtures. The sound system was rebraced to make it more secure.
Of all the changes, Haley thinks the addition of air conditioning will make the biggest difference.
"Especially during the summers," he said, "it would get really bad during some sneak previews. I think that's going to be the most appreciated change."

Getting on your knees is not enough, but it's a start.
So. Damn. Sexy.
I'm not the biggest Bakemonogatari fan, but once I start following a series and it turns out to be half decent then I keep watching, and Nekomonogatari: Kuro was interesting in its portrayal of Hanekawa. Nekomonogatari: Kuro follows the same style the other *monogatari shows: distinctive background visuals and transitions, a good dose of fan service, and lots of Koyomi having witty conversations with various people (mostly the girls in his life). And of course there are very, very short bursts of glorious and extreme violence, but (unfortunately) fighting and action are not really the main focus of the show.
Just your normal brother and sister activity here.
Yup, perfectly normal brother and sisters.
Since this was before the events of Bakemonogatari, the only girls Koyomi can talk to are his sisters, Hanekawa, and Shinobu who actually talks a little bit in this show. Before getting to Hanekawa's problem, we learn that Koyomi and his sisters already have an unusual relationship. The siblings are care for each other and are close... maybe a little too close for brothers and sisters given how Koyomi had no reservations about groping Tsukihi. As for Shinobu, we see her develop her taste for donuts, and of course being the awesome vampire that she is, she's the one who actually solves the Black Hanekawa problem when Koyomi's plan of trying to get himself killed doesn't quite put an end to Black Hanekawa.
Thus begins Shinobu's obsession with donuts.
The main female star for Nekomonogatari: Kuro is of course Hanekawa, and the first obvious thing is that Black Hanekawa is sexy as hell. The combination of Hanekawa's figure, black lingerie, long silver hair and cat ears is quite formidable. Drooling over Black Hanekwawa aside, the main story of Nekomonogatari: Kuro Hanekawa gets possessed by the bakeneko after having trouble with her parents. Hanekawa's current parents are not her biological parents and they don't particularly care for her, and she lives in their house more or less like a stranger. The situation is somehow compounded by Hanekawa trying to maintain her appearance as the knowledgeable, friendly, role-model student. I thought the show would put Hanekawa in a sympathetic light, but interestingly the show suggests that Hanekawa herself is partly at fault because she's too perfect. Also, Hanekawa largely directs her own actions as Black Hanekawa and even refuses to have the bakeneko removed from her. Hanekawa seems to be so fed up with her current life that she'd rather become a monster. Even in her Black Hanekawa form, Hanekawa is hard to read because she rarely if ever tell people how she really feels. Nekomonogatari: Kuro gave us some insights into Hanekawa's personality, but she can still be enigmatic.
I thought it was funny that in order to outwit the very intelligent Black Hanekawa, Koyomi used a pretty stupid tactic of swallowing Shinobu's anti-monster blade and letting Hanekawa cut him in half. Of course, betting that Hanekawa would come to his aid was a bold and calculated move on Koyomi's part, but the rest of the strategy was at best questionable. It worked out well though in the end since Shinobu had enough of Koyomi's stupidity and saved the day. Hanekawa is turned back to normal without any memories of her transgressions, although it's hard to say if that's for the best. As for Koyomi, he concludes that while he cares for Hanekawa deeply and is willing to die for her, he can't bring himself to love her. That of course may still change though as the franchise rolls on.
Other random thoughts:
- Loved the OP sequence with Hanekawa wandering around with a guitar. Decent OP song too. Would have been awesome if Hanekawa actually played guitar in the series.
- Did I mention Black Hanekawa was hot?

Transitioning summer clothes into winter
It's that time of the year again when you are making room for your summer wardrobe. However, with time there is not much of a distinction between seasonal wear. You can add some sunshine to the gloomy winter days by wearing your summer outfits during winters. All you need to do is get a little creative with adaptation and make sure you stay warm.
You can look fashionable, without investing in a whole new wardrobe for the winter. Here's how you to work your basic summer garments through the harsh winter-
1. Jersey sundress
Most women have at least two jersey sundresses in their wardrobe. A pair of thigh length boots and a cardigan is the perfect way to dress up for a casual winter lunch. To add some sophisticated charm, carry a lightweight, woolen pashmina and drape it around the sundress. They can be worn with woolen leggings too.
2. T-shirt women
Layering is hot and a versatile way to wear your summer tees. Wear a long sleeved t-shirt under your skimpy summer tee. But make sure you stick to garments of similar weight. Pairing it with a chunky woolen dress will look obnoxious. Tees can also be worn under shirts and jackets for a simple yet casual look.
3. Short skirt
There are umpteen numbers of ways to accessorize the skirt for winters. You can try the retro-chic look with leggings, ankle length boots and a classic scarf. For a more casual appeal do away with the scarf and try out some bright and contrasting colors of leggings. With Christmas coming up try a combination of red and green and get into the festive mood.

DIY vs. Buy: Should I Make My Own Pear Liqueur?
I am obsessed with Champagne cocktails. So when I hit upon a DIY ingredient that pairs well with sparkling wine, it's time for me to buy bubbly by the case. One Thanksgiving, I happened upon a delicious fizzy cocktail made with sparkling wine, fresh pear syrup, and gin, which launched a new sub-obsession—finding ways to combine pears and Champagne.

Below is the poem entitled God IS Real Miracles Happen which was written by poet

God Is Real/Miracles Happen
By Nate Spears
God is real, and miracles happen
Despite of his struggles
The middle class poet kept on writing his chapters
Times were tough
But he didn't give up
Unpaid rent
Eviction notes
His bills were overdue
No water, no power
He used GOD as his source; and
kept on writing his chapters
Then came a knock
He opened his door, but no one was there
There was a note left behind, along with a white feather on his mat
A rent paid receipt
Plus full payment of his utilities
He closed the door quickly, and went back in the house to his desk
The pages in his book was flipped
to a ending page he couldn't miss
A inspirational piece was left behind that he didn't write
It read this:
For your time and effort given
to lead and inspire, this is the final chapter in your book that I so desire.
I restored your power, to give you energy to write.
I gave you water again, for the tears shed on your writes.
I provided funding for your rent, for the priceless messages your poems present.
Those sheets of paper have inspired many lives in need to vent.
I read the final chapter, and started to cry
I glanced out the window at a river of joy nearby
A rainbow appeared in the sky
Under covering my darkness
There lies a ray of light
No matter how deep life pounds
No matter how hard things get
If you believe you can overcome
Just keep up the fight
The battle is already won
Just believe.

When you grow up....if you're really lucky.....your inner child is alive and well. The trick is knowing when to be an adult and when to be a child.

We all only have one life to live.

If you're happy, what's the problem?
Most I know just have fun, but can get serious when it's needed.

Life is a just a big playground but you have to know when it's time to do the work and upkeep that keeps the playground fun!
Ahh, the wealthy elites! They have their heads in the sand just like they have in past centuries. Nero fidling, the English of the past upper classes. They all were so surprised when it all fell apart and the real people took back some dignity and control.

I just found out about this linux-based network toolset called aircrack-ng, and its pretty interesting, and I'm learning how to use it. But it just occured to me, that like a lot of linux programs, they're developed in foreign countries, with different laws. I did do a google search, and the only thing in regards to what i am asking that pops up is a question on another site.
So, my question is, is it illegal in America, specifically Ohio, to use this program? I mean i know it has a legitimate purpose, but so does hemp.
Also, sorry if this is the wrong place for this question, but I'm not exactly sure where it should go.

WASHINGTON -- The number of people applying for unemployment benefits fell sharply last week, a positive sign that the job market is slowly improving.
The Labor Department says applications dropped by 34,000 to 388,000, the lowest number since the week of July 12, 2008. The level of applications has either fallen or remained unchanged in five of the past six weeks.
Unemployment applications below 425,000 signal modest job growth. But economists say applications need to fall to 375,000 or below to indicate a significant decline in unemployment. Applications for unemployment benefits peaked during the recession at 651,000 in March 2009.
The level of applications can be particularly volatile during the holidays. But a department analyst said there were no unusual factors affecting the report.

Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD or, simply, Parkinson's) is the most common form of parkinsonism, a group of motor system disorders. It is a slowly progressing, degenerative disease that is usually associated with the following symptoms, all of which result from the loss of dopamine-producing brain cells:
tremor or trembling of the arms, jaw, legs, and face
stiffness or rigidity of the limbs and trunk
bradykinesia (slowness of movement)
postural instability, or impaired balance and coordination
Dopamine is a substance produced in the body which has many effects, including smooth and coordinated muscle movement.
It is incorrectly believed that Parkinson's disease disappeared after the introduction of levodopa (L-dopa) in the 1960s. In fact, about 60,000 Americans are newly diagnosed with Parkinson's disease each year, with more than 1 million Americans affected at any one time. Further, more people suffer from Parkinson's disease than multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis combined.Learn more about Parkinson's Disease ›


text: The Roman Empire wiki last edited by Jagged85 on 10/15/13 03:38AM View full history Founding of RomeRome began in the 8th century BC as a small farming village along the Tiber River. By 281 BC, the Roman Republic had conquered most of Italy. They then went to war with Carthage in the three Punic Wars, during which they came close to defeat at the hands of Hannibal, before eventually defeating him and going on to conquer large parts of North Africa and Spain. For the next two hundred years, the Romans continued to take over large amounts of land as a republic until 31 BC, when Augustus assumed the role of emperor, establishing the Roman Empire.Fall of Roman EmpireCenturies later, the empire would face invasions from various foreign nations, including the Persians as well as barbarian tribes like the Huns and Goths, before eventually collapsing in 476 AD. The Eastern Roman Empire managed to survive as the Greek-speaking Byzantine Empire, before eventually losing most of its lands in the Middle East, North Africa and Southern Italy to the Arabs' emerging Islamic Caliphate in the 7th century. The Byzantine Empire would continue to face invasions from the Arabs, Crusaders, Mongols and Turks for centuries before it was eventually annexed in 1453 by the Turkish Ottoman Empire, which claimed to be the successor to both the Roman Empire and the Islamic Caliphate.

What do you imagine when you hear the word squirrel? I don't know about you, but I see a bushy tailed vegan, delicately nibbling on forest nuts and berries. If you are like me, then I'm afraid you have been terribly misled. Every day over the past 5 weeks, India never failed to surprise me; but seeing a cute (or so I thought) furry rodent jump and snatch a dead mouse and carry it up the tree definitely took the cake. But perhaps this is a phenomenon unique to India? I saw a few more animals in shapes and forms that were not particularly welcoming to the eyes and heart of a tired traveller but that is how my last day in Delhi started. The rest of my Sunday was filled with much more pleasant discoveries and I had the chance to visit the three Baolis (stepwells), which were on top of my to see list. Unfortunately Delhi comes to a halt when it rains because of the mud so I was unable to visit Old Delhi and the Red Fort but I was able to fit in some last minute gift shopping and found the best shop for Jalebi.
I am writing my final entry back home and the streets almost seem too quiet now; When I hailed down a taxi today I half expected the cars behind me to honk their horns but alas, they just waited patiently. It's quite surreal to think that I was in Delhi 24 hours ago because it really is like a different world. I miss it already and am planning to go out for Indian food tomorrow night!
Agrasen Ki Baoli (Stepwell)
During the week I was busy working on my article for the Street Vendor Bill that I mentioned last week. The Bill was introduced in the last session of Parliament to provide street vendors social security and livelihood rights. Despite the good intentions, the Bill empowers local authorities to evict and confiscate vendor goods on account of public nuisance, public obstruction or for any other public purpose. The conditions on which authorities can evict a vendor are so vague that the Bill leaves scope for the possibility of misuse and arbitrary exercise of power. Eviction and confiscation only hinders them from making a living and does not solve the problem of recidivism. Vendors play an important role in the urban economy because they provide employment for themselves and small-scale producers as well as benefiting consumers with cheaper alternatives. So it is always the low income households that have the most at stake when these policies are directed against vendors.

The people I met at CPPR Winter School, Asia Liberty Forum and CCS exposed me to so many different issues and perspectives that I would not have even considered before. Thank you Ron Manners and Mannkal for organizing this amazing experience. It was definitely not an easy task getting to India but I have learnt so much more than I thought possible in 5 weeks and I hope that others will not be discouraged by the all the red tape. Hopefully India will move to at least the top 100 in the Economic Freedom ranking in the near future!
