These candidates were current commission Chairman Marie Rice, Loren Thomas and Gene Wilson. Rice received 631 votes, Thomas received 501 votes and Wilson received 521 votes, according to unofficial totals.
Two new commissioners will now represent the county's second district on the commission. Jason Harris and Glenn White were among the five candidates who appeared on the general election ballot and represent two of the three winners of the Republican Primary. Harris received 594 votes, and White received 705 votes. Harris and White will be joined in representing the second district by incumbent Commissioner Kenneth Garland, who received 644 votes.

Easy steps for peeling this unevenly textured part of the ginger plant.
As the part of the ginger plant that grows underground, ginger has the ability to grow both new stems and root systems. Ginger has become a very popular ingredient in many cuisines, and can be found in most supermarkets across the United States. When shopping for ginger, look for firm ginger with a smooth skin. Ginger freezes well, but before freezing it is best to break the ginger into smaller pieces (without peeling it). Wrap the pieces tightly and individually, and place in the freezer for up to six months.
1. Peeling or scraping ginger with a spoon is one of the most common ways to peel ginger. The skin is thin and scrapes off easily. Some people use a common vegetable peeler to peel ginger. Using a peeler will create more waste than is necessary. We used a large piece or a "hand" of ginger, and a common spoon to illustrate this method. Rarely would you ever need to peel this much ginger.
2. Scrape the ginger with the inside of a spoon, getting the edge of the spoon into the crevices of the ginger.
3. The skin will come off with a gentle scrape.
4. Once complete, you will notice the ginger looks almost identical to how it looked before peeling. Removing the skin of ginger does not alter the shape the original piece of ginger held.Your new ginger peeling skills will come in handy when you make these recipes:

|Eau Thermal Avene
|Meaningful Beauty
Eau Thermal Avene is a brand that specializes in skin care treatments for sensitive skin, oily skin, wound care, anti-aging, dry skin, intolerant skin, and sun care. This French company dates all the way back to 1736, and is based on a horse drinking water from a particular spring, which in turn cured its skin disease. At this point, Eau Thermal Avene offers both a professional line of treatments for physicians, as well as a retail line of skin care products, which appear to be available online, but no prices are posted.
The retail line of Eau Thermal Avene products are separated into 11 different sections. These are Sun Care, Cold Cream, Ystheal, Eluage, Cleanance, Hydrance, Cicalfate, Anti-Redness, Intolerant Care, Thermal Spring Water, and Essentials. Under the Essentials category, you will see treatments like the Rich Compensating Cream. This product is described as non-greasy, but very rich to hydrate the facial skin. It provides anti-oxidant protection and is geared toward dry to very dry skin types. The key ingredients found in this product are Avene Thermal Spring Water, Ceramides, Fatty Acids, and Plant Sterols. Like many other Eau Thermal Avene treatments the rich Compensating Cream is paraben-free, non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic.
Product Details
Eau Thermal Avene is a full line of skin care products that are mostly geared toward women. They are claimed to suit any condition from sensitive skin, to dry complexions, to wrinkles, to intolerant skin, to excessive oil, to redness and irritation. The primary touted ingredient found in all Eau Thermal Avene products is Avene Thermal Spring Water, which is essentially supposed to heal and protect the skin. There are simple directions for using each topical treatment posted on the official website. Furthermore, there are clinical results provided on the website to give you an idea of how well these products worked in studies that were conducted. Full ingredient lists are not available at this time, which can sometimes be an issue for those with allergies.
The Good
- There is a Physician Finder link provided on the website to help you find professionals that offer Eau Thermal Avene treatments.
- There is some interesting history presented on the website about the Avene spring in France.
- It appears that all retail Eau Thermal Avene products are available online.
The Bad
- Individuals with allergies may not appreciate that all ingredients for these skin care products are not posted.
- There are no free samples of Eau Thermal Avene available via the website.
- These skin care treatments cannot be conveniently purchased in common, local department stores or drugstores.
- The actual prices for these products are not disclosed on the official website.
The Bottom Line
In the end, the Eau Thermal Avene line of skin care treatments certainly has some unique and interesting history to it. There is no disputing that. The idea of a miracle spring that offers water to heal is pretty enticing to say the least. However, this does not change the fact that prices for Eau Thermal Avene treatments are left off of the website, and no free trial samples are provided for new customers to test out. This may affect some individuals and their choice to purchase.

Tue Jul 25 2006 Illegal Immigrant Protesters Fail to Rally in Santa Cruz
A group of racists who organize through the website "Illegal Immigrant Protest dot com" called for an "Illegal Immigrant Protest Rally" at the Town Clock in Santa Cruz on July 22nd. Peace and social justice activists from across Santa Cruz County put out a call for solidarity with migrants and to confront and educate the out-of-town "anti-alien" group. About 30 activists showed up in solidarity with migrants and 3 "anti-alien" protesters came to Santa Cruz to scapegoat problems in our society on people migrating from Mexico to the United States. Feeling far too outnumbered and unwelcome, the racists returned to their cars and drove back over the hill. Read more and view photos

Mile Map HostelBangkok, Thailand
Nice common area and helpful staff. Location is a little far from most sights but within walking distance to BTS or river transport. Also right on Si Lom which has a night market. Very clean rooms and bathroom. Overall a nice place to stay.
Pak-Up HostelKrabi, Thailand
Very clean hostel with massive lockers under bed and individual light and sockets for each bed. Nice common area with bar attached to hostel. Also close to night market.
Cocoa MewsPenang, Malaysia
Good location in walking distance to most of the many sights. Staff are very friendly and extremely helpful in letting you know where to go, suggestions for where to eat and even what to eat. Our room had a bit of a strange smell to it although it appeared clean, which remained the entire time. Everything else about the hostel was great!
De'Native Guest HouseCameron Highlands, Malaysia
De'Native guesthouse was our favorite hostel so far! The owner Krish was amazing. He took us on a hike, cooked us amazing Indian food for dinner one night and arranged a tour of Cameron Highlands for us. He has a wealth of knowledge and can help arrange travel to your next destination. The outdoor hut we stayed in was lovely, and the whole property has been kept up beautifully. Also not far from the downtown area. We would highly recommend this place for exceptional staff and nice rooms!
The LonghouseKuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Nice location by Chinatown and easy walk from MRT. Secure building with lockers. Rooms were small with very thin walls so if you're a light sleeper, it may be difficult to sleep if it's loud. Also there were no windows so it made it difficult to wake up in the morning. Overall, decent place if you just want a cheap place in a good location.
Roof Top Guest House and Hostel MelakaMelaka, Malaysia
Very nice rooms and great location. Thanks so much for the hospitality.
Five Stones HostelSingapore, Singapore
Very clean and nicely cooled rooms. 10 minute walk from closest MRT which can get you anywhere in the city. And the free breakfast was a nice touch.
Kiss HostelSplit, Croatia
Very close to the old town but far enough that the price is kept down compared to other hostels. Good security and lockers to keep your stuff. Overall a good place to stay.
Hostel EnjoySarajevo, Bosnia And Herzegovina
Finding the hostel was extremely difficult as the instructions are next to impossible to follow. The building doesn't even have a sign and the only indication the hostel is there is the word 'enjoy' in the buzzer list. When we got there, no answer and we had to wait 20 minutes before the buzzer was finally answered. I was charged full price even though I paid the deposit and when I brought it up I was rudely told I was being offensive. DON'T do the war tunnel tour, it's way overpriced!!!
Hostel NinaMostar, Bosnia And Herzegovina
Extremely friendly staff! Felt very welcomed by the family. Great location within walking distance of the mostar bridge. Clean rooms and offered free snacks and coffee along with rides to and from the train station. I highly recommend this hostel.
Villa BananaDubrovnik, Croatia
Great pickup service and extremely friendly staff. Welcome drink and snack was a nice touch. The room was clean but could have used lockers in the dorm to lock up valuables. Ride back to bus station was also extremely expensive.
Zorbas HotelAthens, Greece
Location a bit out of the way, but close to metro. Staff are also helpful.
Youth Hostel AnnaSantorini, Greece
Cheap rooms that are clean. But need more power points. Impossible to find somewhere to plug in electronics. Also very loud at night with a bar across the street.
Jimmy's HostelParos, Greece
Awesome location by the beach. Great value for your money with clean air conditioned rooms.
Hostel ZeusAthens, Greece
Great location within walking distance to the acropolis. Very friendly and helpful staff. No lockers or anywhere to lock up valuables though.
Sofia Peace HostelSofia, Bulgaria
There were ants all over the floor and when it rained the water dripped through the roof. Seems more like a bed and breakfast than a hostel and there is practically no common area. Also the bread served with breakfast was all moldy. the place itself is a really nice building though with tons of room.
Hikers Hostel PlovdivPlovdiv, Bulgaria
Stephan is an awesome guy to run the hostel. Very friendly and welcoming, and a great guy to hang out with. Breakfasts here are really good as well. Especially Stephans fruit salad. The amazing thing about the hostel is the location, right on the middle of the old town. Only negative is the few bathrooms that are only on the first floor but overall an awesome place.
Hostel Mostel Veliko TarnovoVeliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria
Staff were extremely helpful! Day trips are amazing with Andy and at a reasonable price. Small hostel atmosphere where you get to know everyone really well. This is the hostel to stay at in Veliko
Hostel MostelSofia, Bulgaria
Staff were extremely helpful in planning next transport. Very busy hostel with a lot of people to meet.
Yo-Ho-HostelVarna, Bulgaria
Great location by the pedestrian street and the beach. Hostel itself was fairly quiet but rooms were nice and even then large dorms were split to provide more privacy.
Explorers HostelBucharest, Romania
Great little hostel. Staff were very friendly and helpful, rooms were clean, air conditioning in room was nice in the boiling heat.
Retox Party HostelBudapest, Hungary
Beds weren't made until late at night. Lockers were terrible, half had already been previously ripped open. Door keys were useless since people were climbing in through the windows. Door was broken and hard to open. Shower door didn't lock. Double booked people in the beds in my room. Basically a sketchy place with a lot of guys who are loud all night.
Hostel BluesBratislava, Slovakia
Great relaxing atmosphere. Bratislava is small so it's really easy to reach anywhere. Washrooms and bedrooms were kept very clean. Overall great hostel.
Hostel Krumlov HouseCesky Krumlov, Czech Republic
Amazing atmosphere. Felt like being in a nice cottage. Staff was super helpful, they helped find and then booked our next travel for us when we arrived. This place definitely felt more like being at home then being in a hostel and it seemed to attract a very easy going crowd.
St Christophers PraguePrague, Czech Republic
Great location and really nice rooms. I'd assume it used to be an old hotel so the security with key cards is great and the bathrooms are really nice. Bar can be loud at night even from the rooms but the common room is a great place to meet other travels. Great value for your money and I' d definitely recommend this hostel
Grampa's HostelWroclaw, Poland
Awesome atmosphere to meet fellow travelers. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful and get involved in activities as well. Really nice common room with PlayStation and nice tv. Rooms and showers were also kept extremely clean. If staying in wroclaw, this is the place to be.
Happy Go Lucky Hotel & HostelBerlin, Germany
Great location by the s-bahn. Clean rooms and friendly staff. Good stay and great value for your money.
St Christopher's CamdenLondon, England
Great location by the Camden market. Common room was empty the night I was there. Overall a decent hostel, although the bunks dint give you a whole lot of room to sit up
Arsenal Tavern BackpackersLondon, England
Located in a very sketchy area of town. Only stayed for one night but it was extremely quiet in the hostel which is nice if that's what you're looking for. In the common room there is a pool table but everyone there was just sitting by themselves on their computers.
USA Hostels HollywoodLos Angeles, USA
Amazing location! Very friendly environment and great value for your money.

This section covers the Versatile Interface Processor 2 (VIP2) and the
Versatile Interface Processor 4 (VIP4) for Cisco 7500 Series Routers.
Interface Processors (IPs), in general, contain the network interfaces
for the Cisco 7500 Series Router. There are two kinds of IPs:
Legacy Interface Processors: These cards are
considered to be non-intelligent compared to the VIPs as they cannot make any
packet switching decisions. Also, the entire card needs to be swapped out if
there is a need for a different interface.
Legacy interface processors do not contain dissimilar interfaces,
meaning that you cannot have a Token Ring interface with an Ethernet interface
on the same legacy interface processor.
Versatile Interface Processors (VIPs): VIPs are
versatile, meaning that they can contain two different interfaces. Thus, unlike
the Legacy Interface Processor, the VIP can contain a Token Ring and Ethernet
interface on the same Interface Processor. These interfaces are built into the
Port Adapter (PA) which needs to be inserted on the VIP.
Changing an interface is as simple as swapping a PA. PAs come in two
sizes: single-wide and dual-wide. A single-wide PA takes up only one slot,
whereas dual-wide PAs are twice the size of single-wide PAs and fill two slots.
A VIP can hold only one dual-wide PA.
If distributed switching is enabled on the router, the VIP can make
packet switching decisions. This decreases the load from the Route Switch
Processor (RSP) and shifts it to the VIP.
In a distributed switching configuration environment, the RSP sends
information such as routing table updates to the VIP that is used to make
switching decisions. VIPs are essentially routers on a blade that allow the
7500 to be a distributed system in which switching decisions can be made on the
VIP instead of by the route processor.
Distributed switching is not available on VIP2-10s and VIP2-15s.
There may be restrictions and limitations on which PAs can be
inserted into a specific VIP. Consult the product documentation listed below to
verify that the combination is supported before you attempt to implement it.
For the VIP2 Series, see the
and Port Adapter Compatibility section of
Versatile Interface Processor (VIP2) Installation and
For the VIP4 Series, see the
and Port Adapter Compatibility section of the
Generation Versatile Interface Processor (VIP4) Installation and Configuration
VIPs can reboot or reload for various reasons. Several of these are due
to potential hardware issues. Below is information on how to capture outputs
helpful for troubleshooting and identifying misleading symptoms caused by bad
hardware. The troubleshooting steps for the symptoms are listed in the
Troubleshooting section below.
In order to determine what is causing the issue, the first step is to
capture as much information about the problem as possible. The following
information is essential to determining the cause of the problem:
VIP crashinfo file(s) - When a VIP crashes, a file
is saved into the bootflash of the primary RSP. The crashinfo contains logs,
memory dumps, and other vital information to facilitate the troubleshooting.
Detailed information on crashinfo can be found in
Information from the Crashinfo File.
RSP console logs and/or Syslog information - These
are crucial in determining the originating issue if multiple symptoms are
occurring (this is usually the case when a VIP crashes or has other problems).
Effective troubleshooting can be done if the console log/syslog is made
available. If the router is set up to send logs to a syslog server, check the
server for the log. For RSP console logs, make sure you are directly connected
to the console port of the router and
Correct Terminal Emulator Settings for Console Connections. Ensure that
is enabled.
Output from the show diagbus command - When a VIP
crashes, the reason for the latest crash may be displayed in the
show diagbus command. This information can be
helpful in troubleshooting the problem. This command is also part of the
show technical-support command which may be
requested by the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC).
If you have the output of a show command
from your Cisco device (including show
technical-support), you can use registered
You can use Output Interpreter to display potential issues
and fixes. To use Output Interpreter, you must be a
There are a few issues that can be misinterpreted as hardware problems
when, in fact, they are not. For instance, a failure following a new hardware
installation is not always a hardware issue. The table below lists symptoms,
explanations, and troubleshooting steps for these commonly misinterpreted
Parity Errors - Parity errors on a 7500 are usually triggered due to
bad hardware. To troubleshoot parity errors, capture (as stated above in the Capturing
Information section) the output at the time of the crash.
When you have collected this information, see
Versatile Interface Processor Crashes - Parity Errors for
troubleshooting steps.
Crash Fault Tree Analysis can also help you narrow down the cause of the
VIP parity error crash.
Negative acknowledgement message (NACK) present on
CyBus - While this is usually a software problem, it can also be a
hardware problem. Be sure to capture the RSP console log at the time of the
problem and then refer to
Versatile Interface Processor Crashes - NACK present on CyBus for
further troubleshooting information.
Note: If you see the message "Parity Error from CyBus" or "NACK Present
on CyBus access" anywhere in these error messages, the parity error comes from
some other component, or there is a mis-inserted card within the 7500.

What is a Doorstep Sport Club?
A Doorstep Sport Club provides a vibrant and varied sporting offer to young people in disadvantaged communities that is designed to grow their motivation and ability to adopt a sporting habit for life.
The coaches who run the clubs will be special people - skilled in leading sport as well as in supporting young people to make the best of themselves. The coaches will be local and know the communities they work in. The young volunteers who co-run the clubs will gain new skills and qualifications and grow as they learn to lead.
In January 2012, the new Government and Sport England's 2013-2017 Youth Sport Strategy - Creating a sporting habit for life - was launched. StreetGames' role in the strategy is to lead the creation of 1000 new Doorstep Sport Clubs for young people (aged 14-25 years old) in deprived areas. The new Doorstep Sport Clubs will draw on the increasing expertise of a large number of agencies delivering doorstep sport – sport at the right time, for the right price, in the right place and in the right style.

Arizona congressman places sequester blame on Obama
PHOENIX -- Arizona Republican Congressman Paul Gosar said President Barack Obama is far more interested in racking up political points and creating panic than he is in finding a solution to the impending sequester.
"It's very obvious that he is," he said. "In fact, it has more of a flavor in Arizona because he's releasing illegal immigrants from prison in advance of this just to put pressure on lawmakers."
Gosar said Obama took a page right out of the Fidel Castro playbook regarding the release of immigrants for the totally wrong reason.
"People expect our government to act wisely, not turn loose people who have violated the law," he said. "This is outright extortion."
Gosar said these cuts will go through and the country will be just fine.
The $85 billion package of federal spending cuts will take effect at 12:01 a.m. Friday unless Congress and the White House can reach a compromise.

Thursday, March 6, 2014
While Horry County Council may ban tents on the beach, any action the county may take would be accepted by the board of the Garden City Beach Community Association.
If its a matter of safety, its a good thing, said Drew Streett, chairman of the group, which promotes the Garden City Beach area.
Mari Armstrong, a board member, greeted the news of a possible ban with enthusiasm, especially for the turtles. The tents up all night are a problem for the hatchlings, she said. Current rules require that the structures come down at night, but Armstrong said that is not always the case.
Horry County Council Chairman Mark Lazarus on Feb. 25 asked Arrigo Carotti, the county attorney to prepare two separate ordinances for councils consideration, one that bans the tents totally, the second that would ban them for a set period. The council is expected to take up the issue during a March meeting.
Lazarus action came during a council workshop on the issue, during which Lt. Mark Bonner, the former head of the beach patrol, noted that in 2013 there were 3,800 encounters because of the beach tents, taking an average 15 minutes each to resolve.
Beach tents/canopies degrade our ability to provide a safe environment on Horry County beaches, said Paul Whitten, the assistant county administrator for public safety.
He added that there are so many tents in such a small area of beach that it interferes with law enforcements ability to do its job.
Although there is a rule on the books that the tents must be behind the established line of the high tide as well as a requirement that there be space between the tents, there are now so many tents that those rules are ignored.
Bonner showed pictures of tents two and three rows deep, with no access for law enforcement or emergency vehicles to get through. In addition, the sight line for the lifeguards is blocked by the tents and canopies.

Hang tight!
Recipe by HBIC
"This onion dip is a hit with all of my friends. Sometimes I throw in some fresh herbs from the garden too. They can't believe it isn't made with sour cream because it tastes great! For really low fat, use nonfat plain yogurt. Perfect for dipping potato chips or veggie sticks."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.
Show ingredients on sale

Save money at local stores when ingredients are on sale!
Watch video tips and tricks
2 tablespoons
1 small
onion, finely chopped
2 cups
plain yogurt
1/2 teaspoon
white vinegar
salt and pepper to taste
I pulled a Rachael Ray and did a caramelization of the onion with some garlic (I used a huge onion and three cloves minced garlic) and just let it hang out in the skillet for about 25 minutes. I used half FF sour cream and half NF plain yogurt. Couldn't even tell that it was lower in fat. Little sea salt and fresh ground pepper and you have a nom-worthy dip. We ate it with Romanitas and pita chips.
It does thicken up a bit after standing overnight and the onion flavor does increase. Still I could not fool myself into thinking this was "real" onion dip. Not even close. This might go good as a spread for a gyro. Very health dip I must admit
28 Ratings
With some revisions, I used this recipe at my last superbowl party and it turned out great!! People are funny about yogurt, so instead of 2 cups yogurt, I added 1 cup yogurt and 1 cup lowfat sourcream. I also added a 1/2 tsp of garlic powder and 1 tsp onion powder to add more flavor. The flavor will intensify if refrigerated for a day. I loved the sauted onions, nice touch.
Great dip! You can trick people into snacking healthy. I did a few things different that makes it even better. Instead of using butter, I used like half the amount of peanut oil (1 tablespoon). I used half shallot/half onion,and I cooked them for a really long time on low heat until caramelized, then deglazed with white vermouth. I also left out the vinegar. This is a versatile dip, but I think the best thing about it is that it can be made extremely low fat, and it still tastes great!
What a great dip! nobody can believe it's made with yogurt, and it tastes a lot better than anything made with onion soup mix. I suggest adding a sprinkle of chopped parsley or minced green onion for color.
Appreciated a healthier onion dip. Made 24 hours in advance for a dinner party and, though it was complimented by the guests, a lot was left over. I'm still eating it. You can't tell it's yogurt and it tastes almost like sour cream and onion. Maybe I'm too used to sour cream, but it just seemed to be missing something.
Excellent dip Emily! I love yogurt so this was no problem for me. I too strained out the liquid overnite using cheesecloth as I like my dips on the thicker side. I added garlic and onion powders and chopped green onion for a bit of color. Delish!
What a difference it makes to saute the onions-- wonderful onion flavor yet sweet-- delicious. I cheated and made the recipe with sour cream but it was a hit so it was woth it. I also added fresh finely diced cilantro. Kudos to a simple yet great tasting dip recipe.

Stocks retreat, drop as Europe, earnings weigh
NEW YORK -- Stocks slumped on Wall Street Thursday, and the rally which has pushed indexes close to record levels stalled.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 42 points to 13,944, after sliding as much as 134 points earlier. The index has edged lower this week, after logging its best January in almost two decades.
The Standard and Poor's 500 fell three points to 1,509 and the Nasdaq composite dropped three points to 3,165.
"We had such a big January, some type of weakness, or consolidation, make sense here to us," said Ryan Detrick of Schaeffer's Investment Research in Cincinnati.
The S&P 500 has lost an average of 0.58 percent in February over the last 20 years, making it the weakest month for stocks, according to research by Schaeffer's.
Stocks fell as weaker earnings and worries about Europe overshadowed healthier signs for the U.S. economy.
Fewer Americans sought unemployment benefits last week, a sign that layoffs are easing. Applications for unemployment benefits fell 5,000 to 366,000.

This Thursday, Pay Your Last Respects to Stan Musial
Thursday afternoon and evening, from 2 to 8 p.m., you'll be able to pay your respects to the late, great Stan Musial at the Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis, the Cardinals announced yesterday.
image via The Musial statue outside Busch Stadium has become a place of pilgrimage for the Cardinals faithful.
The funeral will also be at the Cathedral Basilica on Saturday morning at 11 a.m., followed by a procession to Busch Stadium, where Musial's family will lay a wreath at the base of his statue.

Preview: Maryland meets Northern Iowa in Paradise Jam
Maryland Paradise Jam preview
Date: 24 November 2013
Time: 7:00 p.m.
Location: Paradise Jam, U.S. Virgin Islands
Television: CBS Sports Network
Spread: Maryland (-5.0)
[RELATED: Why is Maryland falling flat on defense through three games?]
Coming to the Virgin Islands 1-2, Maryland did not get the hot start it anticipated against Marist on Friday afternoon. They overcame a slow first half with a strong second, though, in a 68-43 win.
Sophomore forward Jake Layman was once again the one who sparked the Terrapins in the second half, finishing with a game-high 16 points, including 4-of-6 shooting from three-point range. Forward Charles Mitchell had another near-double-double with 12 points and eight rebounds.
Can Maryland keep the momentum going against Northern Iowa? Read more below.
PG Deon Mitchell vs. Roddy Peters/Dez Wells
Maryland head coach Mark Turgeon experimented with the freshman, Peters, in the starting lineup against Marist and though Peters' final stat line was not bad, the offense was stagnant in the first half while he was on the floor.
Turgeon switched it up to put Wells there in the second and the big Maryland run began, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the change at point guard was the catalyst. So who will start on Sunday?
Whoever it is, they'll have their hands full with 6-1 Texas native Deon Mitchell, Norther Iowa's leading scorer and a player who put up 23 points, five assists, and two steals in the team's opening win over Loyola Marymount.
Mitchell had high-major interest from some notable programs coming out of high school, including Arizona State, Colorado, Marquette, and TCU.
Shaquille Cleare, center
After struggling through the teams first three games, sophomore center Shaquille Cleare took a step forward against Marist. It wasn't a breakout game by any stretch, but it was a confidence builder for Cleare, who had eight points on 4-of-4 shooting from the floor and grabbed five rebounds.
Cleare continues to start over counterpart Charles Mitchell, mostly because Turgeon likes having a spark off the bench if the team comes out flat. The two ultimately end up playing the same number of minutes.
Another similar game from Cleare on Sunday would be a significant step toward getting fully back into a groove after injuries hampered him in the offseason.
[RELATED: Will Peters take over the reins of the offense at PG?]
Matt Bohannon, guard
Maryland's poor perimeter defense has made for easy living for three-point shooters so far this season, going back even as far as the team's exhibition against Catholic. Because of that, the Terrapins will want to keep an eye on the junior, Bohannon.
He is shooting close to 53 percent from three-point range on the year, including scoring 22 points on 5-of-7 shooting from three-point range in the team's Paradise Jam opening-round win over Loyola Marymount.
The split for Maryland between the first half and second half of games has been staggering. Through four games, the Terrapins have been outscored 136-129 in the first half. In the second half, Maryland has outscored opponents 166-119, an average difference of close to 12 points in each game.
Is that actually a positive? Well, it's better to start slow and finish strong than start strong and taper off. But, at the same time, Turgeon would likely prefer to see more effort out of the gate.

Peanut Butter Muffins
If you love peanut butter, this recipe is for you! Inspired by peanut butter on toast, these muffins are not too sweet. I think they are perfect for a quick breakfast. Of course, a thin layer of jam makes for a fun twist on the classic PB & J.
Dry Ingredients
1 1/4 cups white rice flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup sweet rice flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
Wet Ingredients
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line 12 muffin cups with paper cupcake liners or spray with a non-stick baking spray.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together dry ingredients. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together peanut butter and sugar until light, about 30 seconds. (Use medium-high speed on a handheld mixer, medium with a stand mixer.)
Reduce mixer speed to medium and add eggs, one at a time. Blend well between each addition, about 15 seconds.
Add half of the whisked dry ingredients. Blend for 30 seconds. (Use medium speed on a handheld mixer; medium-low on a stand mixer.)
Add 1/2 of the milk and blend until combined, about 30 seconds.
Add remaining dry ingredients and milk. Blend for 1 minute. (Use high speed on a handheld mixer; medium-high on a stand mixer.)
Fill prepared muffins pans about 2/3 full.
Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until a cake tester/toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove pan from oven and place on a wire rack. Allow muffins to sit in the pan for about 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, remove muffins from the pan and place on the wire rack to cool completely.
Makes 12 muffins

Aaron Cook is refusing to give up on his Olympic dream - with the world number one taekwondo fighter prepared to go to court if necessary.
Cook was overlooked by GB Taekwondo for the under-80kg place on the London 2012 squad in favour of Lutalo Muhammad, also a European champion but who would need to drop down a weight for the Olympics.
At the third time of asking, the British Olympic Association eventually ratified Muhammad's inclusion - a decision which left Cook furious, claiming he had been "cheated" out of his rightful place because of the decision to leave the GB Taekwondo Academy programme.
Following advice from Michael Beloff QC, Cook's lawyers Harbottle and Lewis will send a pre-action letter to the BOA outlining their legal case.
That letter will include fresh evidence that the GB Taekwondo selection process was flawed, according to Cook's management representative Jamie Cunningham.
If there is no progress from the BOA or the World Taekwondo Federation, who are undertaking their own review, by Monday then Cook will pursue his legal challenge in either the High Court or the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
"We would prefer not to pursue any legal route. We urge the BOA to reconsider their position and their nomination," said Cunningham.
"The BOA we believe knows that the British Taekwondo selection process was flawed.
"We will be writing a letter before action to the BOA. We urge the BOA not to make Aaron Cook a victim of a flawed selection process, which they may not have written but they did approve."
Cunningham added: "Until it's dead, we are not giving up.
"It is a disgrace. We should be ashamed in this country that we have a world number one that is not going to the Olympics, particularly when UK Sport set a selection criteria about winning gold medals."
Cook's camp say they have until July 6 to press their case before the International Olympic Committee deadline.
The 21-year-old called on the International Olympic Committee to get involved, demanding UK Sport conduct their own inquiry and expressing his disappointment in the BOA.
"I feel they gave up fighting for me," said Cook, who described the last four weeks as the toughest of his life.
"I am really disappointed with UK Sport. As a UK taxpayer you expect lottery money to be involved in the correct processes.
"The reaction of the WTF has been to investigate British Taekwondo.
"This suggests UK Sport needs to urgently conduct their own full inquiry into what has happened an why. They just seem to be avoiding the whole issue.
"The sport of taekwondo needs a great Olympics given we have to reapply in 2013 to remain an Olympic sport.
"I am sure the IOC are looking at this whole situation and asking why the world's greatest taekwondo tournament does not include the world number one.
"I would ask the IOC to consider my situation."
Since deciding to train in a home-made gym in his parents' back garden and assemble his own support team at the cost of £100,000, Cook has won nine of his last 12 tournaments and become the world number one.
"I always thought it would be impossible for them not to pick me if I won majority of the tournaments listed in their selection criteria, which I did," he said.
"When I have put the results in I feel like I have been cheated."
Cook also maintained he would accept the compromise of a fight-off with Muhammad for the chance to compete in London.

STONE OAK, Texas - With an estimated 30,000 people living and working in Stone Oak, it remains one of San Antonio's largest neighborhoods.
"One of the reasons people buy homes here is because of the aesthetic appeal," said Stone Oak Project Manager David Kincaid.
While the neighborhood's common areas are visually pleasing, maintaining so much greenery and foliage during a year with persistent water restrictions is no easy task.
"We would have guys out here hand watering with hoses for hours, hours and hours," said Kincaid.
Stone Oak quickly took steps to conserve, while still maintaining curb appeal.
Now, the neighborhood has gone a step further by installing flow sensors on water meters that can be activated remotely.
During the hot summer months, Stone Oak experienced leaks in pipes that resulted in thousands in additions to its water bill. The leaks were not detected until weeks and even months later.
"We had to look for alternatives and we were lucky enough that SAWS was willing to work with us," said Kincaid.
The new flow sensors will now detect a leak immediately and water can be shutoff remotely using a smartphone.
"We're doing everything we can to decrease the amount of water that's needed to maintain what people love about Stone Oak, which are the medians and the trees," added Kincaid.
Stone Oak has now added trees for additional shade. Medians also have set days for watering and a weather station will also be added to determine if watering is even necessary.
Meanwhile, the iconic Stone Oak fountain now runs on reclaimed water. All are moves that Kincaid says will save the neighborhood thousands.

Encounters of the coastal kind
CORPUS CHRISTI - I was reminded last week of how confusing bicyclists can be to motorists — and of how their confusion isn't always bicycle-unfriendly.
This thought occurred to me during a bike ride in the still-dark early morning hours, after I stopped on Alameda Street for a red light at the Doddridge Road intersection (I stop for red lights. It's the law.)
A driver pulled up behind me and stopped an unusually long distance back. I noticed a right-turn signal blinking. There was no traffic on Doddridge, so I motioned to the driver to pull up past me and make the right turn on red.
I had situated myself toward the middle of the lane but had left plenty of clearance for cars to squeeze to the right of me so they could turn right on red. It didn't occur to me that a driver would be hesitant to do it uninvited. I thought it overly polite and cautious.
What did occur to me, later, was that the driver wasn't a mind-reader and this encounter was highly unusual for him or her. There I was, on a bicycle, in the dark (but highly visible, with headlight and taillight; it's the law), in a traffic lane asserting my right to a piece of it, stopped at the red light instead of running it like many cyclists do illegally, headed the direction of traffic rather than against it like so many cyclists do illegally.
That's a lot of alien behavior for one driver to encounter so early in the morning.
I bring this up, in such extensive detail, because local drivers are going to encounter a huge dose of alien behavior six days from now and they need to be prepared — and patient.
Saturday is the annual Conquer the Coast bicycle ride around Corpus Christi Bay. About a thousand participants have signed up and procrastinators probably will swell the number.
Some will ride the 25-mile Ocean Drive loop and call it a day, and some will do the 10-mile "family ride." But most are committed to the 65-mile ring around the bay.
They'll be spread out along the route because the fastest will finish the ride in maybe three and a half hours and the slower ones will take six hours or more. That means a lot of waiting for drivers trying to turn onto the major roadways being used by the cyclists.
I drive a lot more than I bicycle and I'm an impatient, Type-A driver. I know the impulses that lead to encounters of the unfriendly kind. On Saturday, if not the other 364 days of the year, bicyclists' encounters with drivers need to be of the chamber-of-commerce kind, which is only fitting considering that the Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce organizes this event.
For those who haven't attempted it, Conquer the Coast is a wonderful experience. Riding 65 miles is no strain for the elite cyclist, but as in all other things, elite means exceptional and few. The ride can be a challenge even for fit people.
But it's organized in a way that enables unprepared or under-prepared non-elites to finish or at least give it a good try without serious risk. Vans cruise the route in case a cyclist needs help with a flat tire, or is flat tired. There are rest stops every 10 miles or so, with water, sport drinks and energy-restoring edibles.
The rest stops are staffed by the various sports teams from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. The men's basketball team is the most easily identifiable (wonder why?). The sports teams participate in this way because the event raises money for the Islander athletic fund, also for bike safety programs.
Like last year, the year before and the two consecutive years before that, I'll be among the riders, assuming no unwelcome viruses or injuries between now and then.
I'll be on a three-speed, fat-tire bicycle with foot brakes and a kick stand, proving again that it can be done on a three-speed, fat-tire bicycle with foot brakes and a kick stand. I'll spend the last 10 miles wondering why I do it to myself and the last 100 yards wishing I didn't have to wait a whole year to do it again.
Happy, safe cycling and happy, patient motoring.

Commentary on Much Ado About Nothing
21 Mar 2010, 00:01
Edward Ocampo-Gooding (2 posts)
This comment is in regards to http://pragprog.com/magazines/2010-01/much-ado-about-nothing by Paolo Perrotta and basically asserts that programs shouldn't do this because Ruby lacks static analysis to counter what you lose in debugging techniques when following the article's recommendation to use Black Holes.
Having thought about making each NilClass instance eat all methods sent to it (i.e. treating nils as "Black Holes" according to Perotta's article) on last Friday, this article was particularly interesting.
I like how Smalltalk, and Objective-C have this behaviour because it means that you can skip having to write extra conditional logic to prevent accidentally causing a NoMethodFound (sic) exception, just like how this article mentioned.
However, after discussing this with some other folks at Shopify (where I work), Tobi Lütke pointed out that NoMethodErrors are an essential part of debugging your Ruby code, which Perotta acknowledges in his conclusion:
bq. On the other hand, Black Holes can cause their own share of trouble. After all, NoMethodErrors are there for a reason: they help you spot bugs in your code. A Black Hole can mask those bugs and make it more difficult for you to notice when things go wrong.
Perotta's article then asserts that you should give them a shot anyway and decide if they work for you or not because "After all, there is at least one popular language (Objective C) where all null reference are Black Holes by default."
Here's my point of contention: a language like Objective-C supports this behaviour by default because they make up for not having NoMethodErrors by having some form of static analysis tell you that there's a possible bug in your code. Because Ruby doesn't suport that sort of thing yet, finding bugs becomes much more difficult and not worth the benefits gained from using this technique.

PS – Could articles in the future please feature an obvious way to respond to the author, even indirectly?

Michael Swaine (67 posts)
Edward, yes we can provide a means of responding to each author, even if indirectly, and I'll implement it in the April issue. Meanwhile, I'll ping Paolo about your post here. -Mike
23 Mar 2010, 00:05
Paolo Perrotta (49 posts)
Hello, Edward. Static analysis can only go so far. It can warn you about obvious uninitialized references, but as soon as you add some indirection (for example, you call a method with a null argument), static analysis fails to spot the problem. If it could spot the problem, then the entire Black Hole discussion would be a moot point, because you'd be unlikely to ever call a Black Hole anyway.
As an example, Java is one of the languages that sports the more robust static analysis environments - and yet, unexpected NullPointerExceptions are the bane of Java programmers. Some people would even contend that null references violate Java's typing assumptions, because there is basically a special "null reference" type that doesn't respect the interface it claims to have. (I'm not steeped in Objective-C, so I'll accept any information on that specific language as a learning opportunity).
However, even if we can discuss specific points of contention, I do substantially agree with you: I very rarely use Black Holes, and I don't think they're a good idea in general. In the article, I tried hard not to be prescriptive, to push the reader into thinking hard about the trade-offs of Black Holes. I'd rather have people make up their own mind about these techniques than just provide a recipe.

Edward Ocampo-Gooding (2 posts)
Mike: thanks!
Paolo: Thanks for following up and for writing the article in the first place. It's a really interesting topic.
I'll point this article and thread to my coworker who works in Objective-C/J all day and see what he comes up with.

Parents and Guardians of Americas Youth,
As soon as possible, get your kids into Scouting and keep them there.
We write to reassure everyone that ongoing Youth Protection training in the Boy Scouts of America is mandatory for all adult volunteers and is a model of effective protection against sexual abuse and mistreatment by predators and abusers.
Scoutings two-deep adult leadership, modesty rules, prohibition against an adult being alone with a Scout not his child, and full view requirements for counseling help to make Scouting Americas safest youth leadership development organization and our countrys best.
The protection statistics defend that claim. In a 2012 study by Dr. Janet Warren, she stated, youth were safer in Scouting than in society at large. (www.bsayouthprotection.org).
In May, the National BSA will again consider adjustments to rules in Scoutings membership requirements, perhaps allowing those standards relating specifically to sexual orientation to align with those as determined by the Scout units sponsoring (chartering) organization (e.g., a school PTA, church, synagogue, mosque or temple).
Drawing from their religious and moral conviction, many Scouts, Scouters, and Scouting alumni remain opposed to the change allowing gay and lesbian adults to serve as leaders if permitted by their chartering organizations.
Others may support the change individually while their chartering organization does not.
Regardless, with few exceptions such as discussions related to health and welfare ones sexual orientation, sexual activity, or any talk of a sexual nature should remain out of our campfire circles, hiking trails, and unit meetings.
As your Coastal Carolina Council Key Three leadership (one professional and two volunteers), we promise our community that going forward, as it has been for over 100 years, you will not find anywhere else in America an organization more dedicated to teaching and coaching youth leadership development than the Boy Scouts of America.
That mission is worth working passionately to strengthen and to grow now more than ever.
Our council will continue to teach and preach the best Scouting has to offer America preparing leaders for life, confident in their abilities to shoulder the mantel of responsibility, and dedicated to their God, as faith and spiritual revelation lead one to practice his duty to God.
Kindness and love expressed out of gratitude for the blessings we share from an Almighty God is a hallmark of the Scouting Movement.
Rest assured that the Coastal Carolina Council will preserve and promote Scouting to young men age 6 to 21 and young women age 13 to 21 throughout its nine counties from the Savannah River to Georgetown County and west to I-95.
The 12 points of the Scout Law and the three main themes of the Scout Oath are timeless values which undergird a decent and productive civil society and derive themselves from sacred honor and a spirit of sacrificial service to others.
We ask you to join us in this quest and keep faith in Scouting.

Council President

Council Commissioner

Top 10 Bollywood Movies of 2008
Overall it was very weak year in Bollywood in terms of quality. There just weren't very many good films to release…and even the good ones were full of flaws!
#1 A Wednesday
It is these types of films that give hope that Bollywood can indeed compete with Hollywood. This terrorism-based film has top of the line acting from Naseeruddin Shah, Anupam Kher and Jimmy Shergill. If you were to choose one movie to watch from last year, then this is the one.
#2 Jaane Tu Yah Jaane Na
Although the story is typical Bollywood, the way it is presented is what makes the film a winner. Imran Khan could not have asked for a better launch from his uncle Aamir. Its only been two films from Aamir Khan Productions so far, but its time to consider this banner one of the best. The final fifteen minutes of this film are what make it a classic.
#3 U Me aur Hum
This film could have and should have done better at the box office. I blame the poor promos for its failure. Why show Kajol and Ajay Devgan on a cruise dancing to Jee Le in the trailers? There was so much more in the actual story. This film is one of the most original and emotional films to come out in Bollywood in a long time.
#4 Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi
At number four we have Shah Rukh Khan's only movie this year. The story was simple and sweet but there was one huge flaw which we just cannot let go: how does a wife not recognize her husband if he shaves his mustache?? This is one of the weakest films to come out from SRK/Yash Raj collaborations but you can count on Shah Rukh to carry the film. He is the only reason this film did as well as it did and is on this list. Anushka Sharma made a great impression in her debut.
#5 Ghajini
This film had a chance to something special – had it been revolved around the 15 minute short term memory aspect. But the makers take the convenient way out by making half the movie into flashbacks/songs and the other half into a typical Bollywood revenge saga. Even before watching the film, most viewers knew the story from beginning to end – how about adding a twist to make it different than the Tamil version? Yeah the film was the biggest hit of the year…but only because of Aamir Khan's performance.
#6 Jodha Akbar
One of the finest movies of the year. It comes at no. 6 just for its length and lackluster screenplay. If Ashutosh had removed the songs and chopped some of the unnecessary scenes , this movie could have challenged Hollywood. If you haven't watched it, just watch it for Hrithik and Aishwarya's brilliant performances.
#7 Jannat
Emraan Hashmi delivers another perfect performance after Awaarapan last year. He is arguably the most underrated actor in the industry. The movie is another good (not great) one from the Bhatt camp but the ending disappointed big time. The reach for something else but police thinks you are reaching for a gun ending has been done many times before! Will Emraan Hashmi ever stay alive in a Bhatt film?
#8 Race
What was the story of this film? Did it even have a story? All I remember is a bunch of twists and turns. Story or not, this thriller does manage to keep you entertained throughout – as long as you don't use your brain too much!
#9 Singh is Kinng
After a string of good films from Akshay Kumar, Singh is Kingg was a bit of a disappointment. Not only was it predictable, but the movie was not as funny as expected and it tried too hard to give moral lessons throughout.
#10 Dasvidaniya
This '10 things to do before I die' movie did not do any wonders at the box office, but it definitely left a mark in everyone's memory who watched it.
It was hard picking the top 10 movies, because we tried to balance commercial success with quality.
Anyways, we think that we have done a fair job.
