Outskirts launches a self-publishing platform for iBooks
March 6, 2014 | 2:18 pm
By Paul St John Mackintosh
Denver-based Outskirts Press, which claims to be "the fastest-growing full-service book publishing and book marketing firm," has just launched a self-publishing platform for authors targeting the iBooks platform, with an iPad/iPhone standard edition package for $299, according to an announcement made via the London Book Fair.
How this offering differs from the current "iPad/iPhone Premium Edition with Private Label iBooks Distribution" package available off the Outskirts website for $699 is not clear. The product blurb for the package outlines what it can achieve but not how it works – such as whether Outskirts undertakes to edit a manuscript delivered to it, what the formatting options are, what kind of publicity or marketing support, if any, is offered, etc. Given the number of add-on options available via the Outskirts website, such as a custom press release for $219 or five celebrity endorsements for $109, it's reasonable to assume that many of these are offered as optional, but not cost-free, extras.
Smashwords in particular is known for its strong relations with the iBooks platform, and has nothing like this upfront cost structure. So although the quoted costs for Outskirts' services don't run too far past what you would normally pay suppliers for anyway if you went the full bells-and-whistles self-publishing route, it's fair to assume that Outskirts has pitched its tent fairly squarely in the vanity self-publishing camp. Their site is also chock full of ads and promo buttons, with offerings like "Receive $300 in spending money during Mad Money Month."
Just as a comparison, and not especially to boost Smashwords, here's a sample of their literature: "We DON'T employ sales people. We'll NEVER try to sell you anything (because we don't sell anything!). Our interests are 100% aligned with your interests. Since we only earn income on commission, our business is entirely oriented toward helping our authors, publishers and literary agents reach more readers and sell more books."
Meanwhile, "say good-bye to the rejection of traditional publishers and the two-year publishing cycle. Say good-bye to the hassles of independent self-publishing, like guessing print-runs, managing inventory, and the responsibility of order fulfillment," says the generic Outskirts introductory blurb. "Say hello to the flexibility and control of self-publishing combined with the full-service support and confidence of a book publishing company, all under one roof. Outskirts Press offers you the best of both worlds by combining the advantages of independent self-publishing with the advantages of traditional book publishing."
Say goodbye to a fair slice of your money too, it seems. Just make sure it's worth it.

What can we learn from a 'Kindle Gold Rusher'?
'iBooks Author 2.3 adds support for ePub 3, opens up ebook creation to anyone'
Salon wishes Amazon an unhappy 20th birthday

I fully agree with Paul. For most writers, Smashwords make more sense. All you need send it is a Word file following a few rules. No payment at all, and their website makes it easy to manage your ebooks. Smashwords can take that Word document and put your ebook on almost every U.S. ebook retailer, including Apple. The one exception is hold-out Amazon.
Smashword can't handle complex formatting though. If someone is only interested in the iBookstore and has or can pick a Mac inexpensively, Apple's iBooks Author is free. It handles ordinary text (such as a novel). It'll also handle books with graphics such as picture storybooks or textbooks. Like Smashwords, ebook uploads cost nothing.
There also Vellum, a new app intended specifically for publishing ebooks to iBooks, the Kindle, and the Nook. You can find it here:
It's still new, so the feature set in still quite limited. For now, think of it as a novel-only way to publish. I'm suggested as strong as I could to them that they need to give it a user-interface like Scrivener's binder. That'd allow scenes to be rearranged rather than just chapters. With that, it'd be more than adequate for writing novels not just publishing them.
The upside to Vellum is that they intend to make it a virtually error-free, completely non-technical way to publish simple ebooks to the major vendors. The downside is that you must pay them a per-book-published fee. Currently that is:
1 book: $49.99
10 books: $149.99
Unlimited: $299.99
And I believe those fees include any upgrades to the app in the future. It's not a bad price. Run into a glitch getting Apple or Amazon to accept your ebook and you can easily spend hours figuring out what's wrong.
For those who don't mind paying, who have a novel-like book they can write elsewhere, and who want no technical hassles, not even that of laying out the interior, it might be an good option. It's certainly cheaper than going through $299 publishing platforms. For the cost of one book that way, you could potentially publish for a lifetime with Vellum. Just be sure you try it before buying the two pricier options. They have a version you can download and try for free.
But don't forget that all these solutions for the interior still leave you with a cover-like image to create. Make it attractive, perhaps by using a full-color photo, and make sure the title stands out well even when the image is small. You can see the cover of my latest book here:
There are pictures from a stock photo service on the front and back along with black bars in which to place the title and author. You can't get simpler than that. Just spend the time it takes to find just the right pictures.
The covers, copyright and contents pages at that webpage are for the print version. The interiors are how the book looks on an iPad. Starting each chapter on a new page with the chapter title followed by a picture is a good way to make a book look good and avoid inconvenient page breaks in an ebook. I make all images 4 inches wide at 150 dpi and that seems to work well, as you can tell.
I also must confess that both the print and iPad versions were done in InDesign. It's pricey, $20/month for a one-app Creative Cloud license, but you can't beat in for ability to make text look really good or to create both print and ePub versions from the same document. It also comes (free) with the website that's hosting images of all my books.

St. Olaf's baccalaureate social work program was founded in 1977 and has been accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) since 1990. Graduates in good standing are eligible to take the ASWB social work licensure exam at the baccalaureate level.
Social work is a growing profession, with social workers holding about 607,300 jobs in 2012.

Definition of Generalist Practice
Generalist practice is multilevel intervention with clients (individuals, families, groups, organizations and communities) of diverse backgrounds. It uses the social systems framework, planned change process, empowerment perspective and strengths-based approach to practice. It is grounded in the liberal arts, scientifically informed and ethical.
High-quality individualized advising is a strength of the program. Any student interested in working with people in relation to their social environment is welcome to talk with faculty about course and career options. Liberal education is at the heart of the Social Work major, and all courses available at St. Olaf can contribute to the preparation of excellent social workers and other professionals.
Admission to the Program
To prepare for social work, students take courses in psychology, sociology, and biology. Study of social and cultural diversity, especially relative to race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, class, and geographic location, is required. Students in good standing who have completed prerequisite courses make application to the program and are formally notified of admission during the junior year (see the St. Olaf College Academic Catalog and Social Work Program Manual). The program welcomes transfer students who come into the program prior to the beginning of the junior year and is pleased to include non-traditional students returning to college. Students are expected to maintain a G.P.A. of 2.0 and receive grades of "C" or higher in major courses to remain in the program.
Field Education
A required field practicum (400 hours minimum) is completed in one full-time block placement in the fall semester of the senior year. This valuable preparatory experience with clients may be in the Twin Cities, other communities close to campus, or at a greater distance by individual arrangement.
Celebration of Diversity
Social workers are diverse themselves and serve diverse clients, so the program actively seeks and encourages students from diverse backgrounds to consider a Social Work major. Social Work faculty and staff encourage diversity at St. Olaf and in the program by working with Admissions, Student Support Services, Upward Bound, Multicultural Affairs, Gay, Lesbian, or Whatever (GLOW!), and the International and Off-Campus Studies department. The program does not discriminate on the basis of age, class, color, culture, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity and expression, immigration status, political ideology, race, religion, sex, and sexual orientation.
International Study Opportunities
Diverse global traditions, histories, and methods of helping are increasingly crucial for social workers to understand and apply. Graduates from the St. Olaf Social Work Program work both domestically and internationally with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. Content on international social welfare and social work is integrated throughout the social work courses. Social Work majors can conveniently schedule Interim courses abroad in any department; the program offers Social Realities of South Africa every other January. In order to study abroad for a semester, students need to plan early and carefully. Of particular interest to majors with Spanish language is the spring semester program Social Work in a Latin American Context which meets junior level requirements for the social work major. Students can arrange for independent study or academic internships abroad with sufficient planning.
Special Student Scholarships, Awards, and Activities
Social Work students are eligible to apply for two scholarships. The Amy Jahren Scholarship is provided to a candidate who "demonstrates through course selection, internship choices, participation in off-campus study, independent study, research or tutorial topics, and/or volunteer work an interest in and dedication to a career of serving others." The Amanda Kimer Memorial Scholarship is awarded to students who demonstrate particular interest in working with oppressed communities, especially communities of color. These awards are part of the financial aid package for the students selected.
The Amanda Kimer Award for Excellence in Social Work is given yearly to a senior major who best exemplifies the hard work, passion to serve others, and sense of humor possessed by Amanda Kimer, a Social Work major who died during her junior year in 1996.
Serving Our Society (SOS) is the student organization for majors and others interested in social work and family studies. The club sponsors volunteer activities and programs of general interest during the school year. During Social Work Month in March, they co-sponsor Social Work Career Night with the program and the Piper Center for Vocation and Career. Alumni/ae living nearby return to campus to describe where their majors in social work have led them.
Each year, students have the opportunity to attend the Day at the Capitol, an advocacy and education day sponsored by NASW Minnesota Chapter.
Social work seniors participate in a Senior Reflection Retreat each Spring, planned by social work faculty, with funding from the Kimer Endowment.

Luís I (Portuguese pronunciation: [luˈiʃ]; English: Louis I, Full name: Luís Filipe Maria Fernando Pedro de Alcântara António Miguel Rafael Gabriel Gonzaga Xavier Francisco de Assis João Augusto Júlio Valfando de Saxe-Coburgo-Gotha e Bragança, the Popular, Port. o Popular; Lisbon, 31 October 1838 – 19 October 1889 in Cascais) was the King of Portugal and the Algarves between 1861 and 1889. He was the second son of Maria II and Ferdinand II and was created Duke of Porto and Viseu.
Luís was a cultured man who wrote vernacular poetry, but had no distinguishing gifts in the political field into which he was thrust by the deaths of his brothers Pedro V and Fernando in 1861. Luís's domestic reign was a tedious and ineffective series of transitional governments called Rotativism formed at various times by the Progressistas (Liberals) and the Regeneradores (Conservatives – the party generally favoured by King Luís, who secured their long term in office after 1881). Despite a flirtation with the Spanish succession prior to the Franco-Prussian War of 1870–71, Luís's reign was otherwise one of domestic stagnation as Portugal fell ever further behind the nations of western Europe in terms of public education, political stability, technological progress and economic prosperity. In colonial affairs, Delagoa Bay was confirmed as a Portuguese possession in 1875, whilst Belgian activities in the Congo (1880s) and a British Ultimatum in 1890 denied Portugal a land link between Portuguese Angola and Portuguese Mozambique at the peak of the Scramble for Africa.
Personal interests[edit]
Luís was mostly a man of the sciences, with a passion for oceanography. He invested great amounts of his fortune in funding research boats to collect specimens in the oceans of the world. He was responsible for the establishment of one of the world's first aquariums, the Aquário Vasco da Gama in Lisbon, which is still open to the public with its vast collection of maritime life forms, including a 10 meter long squid. His love for sciences and things new was passed to his two sons.
Marriages and descendants[edit]
Luís married Princess Maria Pia of Savoy, daughter of Victor Emmanuel II of Italy and Maria Adelaide of Austria. They both had a deep love at first, but Luis's countless mistresses lead Maria Pia to depression. Together they had two sons who survived childhood, and a stillborn son in 1866. The King also fathered one illegitimate child, born in 1874 in Lisbon, a son named Carlos Augusto.

A Farmington day care provider has been charged in connection with the death of a 3-month-old boy.
According to the Dakota County Attorney's Office, 45-year-old Rebecca Graupmann was charged with two counts of manslaughter in the second degree, one count of endangerment of a child, neglect of a child and interference with a death scene in connection with the death of Kaiden Staebell.
Kaiden was in Graupmann's care at her home day care facility on July 21, 2012. Farmington police were called out to her home shortly after 3 p.m. on the report of a child who had stopped breathing and was unresponsive.
Emergency crews were unable to revive Kaiden and he was pronounced dead at 3:23 p.m.
According to authorities, Graupmann's story changed during the investigation. She initially told police that Graupmann had fallen asleep in his car seat around 1:45 to 2 p.m. and that he was "perfectly fine" when she checked on him. Graupmann said when she returned at 3 p.m. she noticed his skin was blue and cold.
Later when authorities told Graupmann they found a wet spot and what appeared to be blood on a comforter upstairs, she allegedly changed her story.
Graupmann told authorities she put Kaiden on the bed in the afternoon and moved him downstairs after he stopped breathing. She said he was cold to the touch, his lips were blue and he had blood around his nose so she picked him up and moved him downstairs.
She told authorities, "I freaked out. I am sorry." She told police she put Kaiden on his back and that his head was turned to the side when she found him not breathing.
Kaiden's mother told police she had given instructions to Graupmann to have Kaiden sleep on his back. She had also given specific instructions that stated: "Kaiden likes to put blankets over his head-keep an eye on him during naps."
Both his mother and father told police that Kaiden was not yet able to rollover or turn from his back to his side.
Graupmann told authorities she had completed the required day care training. She also said that Kaiden had slept on her couch and bed several times and she believed it was safe for him to sleep on his side.
The medical examiner who conducted an autopsy on Kaiden believes he died of probable positional asphyxia.
Graupmann is expected to make her first court appearance May 22.

that to post a pic in a thread...that can be done by uploading directly from one's computer. When you attempt to upload to an

anything you might have posted/uploaded to the board. I deleted three pics from my first album...thinking I needed to make
room for more...the three I deleted were posted on the Giant's "big" thread...and although I deleted them from the album, they
still appear on the thread...unless they disappeared when the board...refreshes?
I'm going to leave these for Jordan to answer as that's more his area.

Each problem that I solved became a rule which served afterwards to solve other problems.
Rene Descartes-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Please bear with me as I am but a Newbie, but although I've read the FAQ, but I'm still a little bit unclear on some parts, (and I'm definately one for asking some daft questions, and probably putting them in thw wrong places), namely:
1 - How come my posts don't immediately show up? Is there a connection between this and the amount of posts moderated? (Or have I just answered my own question? )
2 - What does it mean when posts do not show up at certain times and special holidays?
Please don't wallop me..! Thanks!
I promise not to wallop you for asking the question if you'll promise not to wallop me for saying the font and color choice you've made for your posts is really hard on old eyes.
1. Those with less than 250 posts will have their messages moderated and the time it takes for them to show up will depend upon how quickly a moderator (there is only one on duty at a time and only 3 overall) can get to them. For me, this is part of my job so am here during weekday work hours but it's only one part of my job so there are times when I have other priorities.
2. Until just recently, I was the only moderator and the Board was closed on the weekends and holidays. Now that we have Flake Noir and Dana Jean as volunteer moderators, the Board is no longer closed down for those occasions.
Thank you for getting back to me, Ms. Mod - you're a Sweetie! And thank you for helping me out. No worries about walloping - I completely understand..! Okay, I have noted the font and color situation and have reverted back to the originals: I had no idea that particular colors make some peoples' eyes go a bit fuzzy, as it were...
Much better--thanks!
You're welcome!

Nationality: Welsh
Date of birth: 11 December 1947
Association president since: August 2012
• A lifetime's association with football began for Trefor Lloyd Hughes with his local village team Bodedern FC on the island of Anglesey, and he went on to hold a host of administrative posts with the club before graduating to become an official with local and regional leagues. A former mechanic, he worked for the ambulance service for 34 years.
• Hughes was elected to the Football Association of Wales (FAW) in 1989 and was previously its treasurer and senior vice-president. He was also the North Wales Coast FA area association representative for many years. Away from football, he is a county councillor and has served as chairman of Anglesey Council and mayor of Holyhead.
• As one of the smaller nations, Wales faces particular challenges both on and off the pitch but Hughes believes they are able to punch above their weight. "We are a very progressive association under chief executive Jonathan Ford and we want to push Wales to the forefront as much as we possibly can," he said. "Anybody who dismisses Wales as a little country does so at their peril."

Family learnt about execution later: Afzal cousin
Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru's family said they were not told in advance about his hanging Saturday morning and want his body.
Yaseen Guru, a cousin of Afzal Guru, told IANS on phone: "It is all rubbish that we were told before the execution... We came to know about it through the media."

Security at Kumbh tightened after Guru's execution
Security at the Kumbh Mela, where millions of Hindus and others have congregated, was further tightened Saturday as Afzal Guru, convicted for his central role in the attack on the Indian parliament over 11 years ago, was hanged at the Tihar Jail in New Delhi.
Heavy security was clamped in the 58 sq. km. premises, with police blockades added at vantage points. Central forces were deployed at important places as hundreds and thousands of people are entering the city from various places.
Mela administration officials said that the number are likely to swell by midnight, a day before the main royal bathing day on Mauni Amavasya.

Only the government can tell why there was a delay," said Gautam Negi, the son of Matbar Singh Negi of parliament's watch and ward staff who was killed in the attack.

Wrestling, baseball share spotlight at 13th Maine Jewish Film Festival
PORTLAND — Maine's annual celebration of Jewish film will feature talks with visiting directors and a larger venue this year.
The 13th annual Maine Jewish Film Festival begins Saturday, March 20, with a reception at Greenhut Galleries followed by a screening of the Oscar-nominated film "Ajami" at the Patriot Cinemas Nickelodeon on Temple Street.
"Ajami" was co-directed by Israeli filmmaker Yaron Shani and Palestinian filmmaker Scandar Copti. The film explores life in an impoverished and violent Israeli neighborhood.
"It took them seven years to make," festival Executive Director Kari Wagner-Peck said. "It is not an upper."
"Ajami" screens at 8 p.m. Saturday at the Nick, following the 6 p.m. opening reception. For information and tickets to opening-night events and all other films showing during the week, go to mjff.org or call 831-7495.
The director and two baseball players from the documentary "Holy Land Hardball" will be in Portland March 22 to discuss that film, prior to its showing at 7 p.m. The documentary is a comical look at the creation of Israel's first professional baseball league – which was spearheaded by a middle-aged Jewish baker from Boston with no sports management experience.
"(Boston Red Sox player) Kevin Youkilis makes a brief appearance in it," Wagner-Peck said. "It's really pretty funny."
Director Erik Kesten, Petach Tikva Pioneers pitcher Ari Alexenberg and Bet Shemesh Blue Sox infielder Jim Pierce will talk about the film, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., at Salt Institute for Documentary Studies. The event is free and open to the public. Salt is at 561 Congress St.
Wagner-Peck said that for the first time, the film festival is collaborating with Salt to host to director discussions.
In another first this year, the festival will feature a locally made documentary about a local celebrity. "Canvasman" chronicles the life of Portland's Rob Elowitch, art gallery owner and professional wrestler. Elowitch has wrestled for the past 40 years under the name Robbie Ellis and for a long time kept his wrestling career a secret.
The film is directed by Portland native Gary Robinov, and he and Elowitch will be at the screening March 24 at 7 p.m. at the Nick. People who attend the screening should keep their ticket stubs and join Robinov and Elowitch at 9 p.m. at Salt.
The festival features nearly 20 feature and short films during its six-day run. Go to mjff.org for more information.
Kate Bucklin can be reached at 781-3661 ext. 106 or email@example.com

Did you try running games by switching the ios it uses t load? That's a cause of black screensOriginally Posted by Darthmunky
I don't want to bring this thread off topic now that you got that fixed.
I would suggest doing as I said with the ios loading. Than searching through the forums. After that open a new thread with your issue.

I just don't understand how changing to a different version of USB Loader would cause the games to suddenly not work. Keep in mind, these are games that didn't need the IOS changed before.

In 2011, Singham came, roared and captured many hearts & a lot was expected from this super-cop as he came out of his den yet again with Singham Returns. Unfortunately, despite Ajay Devgn's immense efforts, it ended up being a disappointing & confused action thriller. For me, the main spoiler was Kareena Kapoor with her over-energetic and over-enthusiastic portrayal.
The plot starts with a police constable being found dead along with an enormous sum of money and is later on charged of being corrupt. The now DCP Singham, discovers the conspiracy behind it and also its masterminds who then kill Singham's mentor and a noble politician, Guruji. How Singham tackles these gundas and once again saves the state is the story that follows.
Rohit Shetty tries really hard to make the sequel grand by inducing more power politics, more singham powers, more big actors, more nonsensical comedy, more over the top action, more save the country philosophy, more social messages ,more media, more glamour & definitely more 'Cars' but it's nothing more than a failed over-ambitious attempt.
He overdid a lot of Singham elements especially Aata Majhi Satakli which kept repeating in every ten minutes. However, the quality of film-making surely improved for Rohit. The way Singham Returns was shot was very vibrant and appealing to the eyes. The Rohit Shetty crew really deserves all the credit to take his technical skills a level up.
The movie's runtime was almost two and a half hours which seems way too long - bad piece of work from the editor. The scope for cutting down illogical Kareena Kapoor scenes was enormous.
An alternate name for the movie could easily have been Cars Return. The movie starts with a car show and ends with a car show. And in every possible action scene you see cars flying, colliding, bombing, crashing and what not. Also , to my amaze, the central minister's car is not bullet proof nowadays. To top it all, the 'DCP' Singham now drives a 'pink' coloured 'Zen Estilo' instead of his usual and more manly Scorpio. Why Singham Why?
The music is average and there is no exceptional song that just makes you go wow! Though Aata Majhi Satakli is catchy, I find it really shitty and irritating with all those crab hands. This music album didn't really work out for Meet Bros Anjjan.
As I kept watching the movie, I Just realized that it's only Ajay Devgn who can totally pull off a Singham and the sole reason for it is his intensity which cannot be matched by any of his counterparts. His eyes are just enough to make you believe that a super-cop like Singham could exist and his voice and delivery makes ordinary dialogues look real classy. If Singham works for me, it is only Ajay who makes it happen.
As much as Ajay was brilliant in his portrayal, Kareena was dreadfully irritating as Avni. This was perhaps the most over-acting done by her after Main Prem Ki Deewani Hun. Probably If she would not have been in the movie, I would have given it an extra star. I know I am being harsh, but seriously, I just can't help it.
Amol gupte really tried hard to do a Prakash Raj but failed terribly. He was far from menacing and his caricatured character made it worse. Also, the Amercian Dasiyan never really helped. Dayanand Shetty aka Daya is Daya, Cut-Copy-Paste from C.I.D. There is also a special sequence where Singham orders Daya- Daya Darwaza Tod. Ashwini Kalsekar did okay playing the stereotypical media journalist rather a Barkha Dutt copy. Zakir Hussain is average and offers nothing different or new. Anupam Kher is average in his short and very predictable character. Mahesh Manjrekar suits perfectly in his role of the righteous politician. Sameer Dharmadhikari, Pankaj Tripathi have been poorly utilized. A special mention to the actress who played the dead police constable's wife had a sequence with Ajay Devgn in which she was amazing. Also, Ashok Saraf (from Singham 1) too was missed.
In all, Singham Returns is yet again a Ajay Devgn show but this time with no one there to support him.view less

Senior team captain Billy O'Conner was named the A-10 Championship's Most Outstanding Player
May 23, 2009
DAYTON, Ohio - The Xavier baseball team won four games in 28 hours to take the 2009 Atlantic 10 Championship hardware home Saturday evening for the first time in program history with its 10-1 dismantling of No. 2 Rhode Island. Senior catcher Billy O'Conner was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player and five other Musketeers joined him on the All-Tournament team.
Joining O'Conner were sophomore third baseman John McCambridge, junior starting pitcher Zac Richard, sophomore designated hitter Ben Thomas, junior first baseman Bobby Freking and senior shortstop/relief pitcher Jordan Conley.
In the title game, junior Neil Lindgren led the Musketeers' offense, going 3-for-four with an RBI and three runs scored. Thomas was 2-for-3, scored two runs and tallied three RBI for the contest.
Xavier (38-19) scored four runs quickly to kick start its offense in the first inning. O'Conner took a base on balls and came around to third on a double from junior Drew Schmidt. Junior Neil Lindgren singled in O'Conner to put two on with no outs. Thomas was up next, sending his school-record tying 16th long ball of the season over the right field fence for three RBI and giving the Muskies the 4-0 lead.
The Musketeers got another run in the third on three hits as Freking's ground-rule double plated Lindgren to put XU up, 5-0.
The fifth inning brought three more runs for the Musketeers as Conley's fielder's choice scored Lindgren and Freking doubled in Conley. Senior Steve Brown's single to left sent in Freking and Xavier took the commanding 8-0 lead after five.
Rhode Island (37-20-1) finally got on the board in the seventh on back-to-back singles, scoring Jeff Cammans who was on second after a balk.
Pinch hitting for Brown in the seventh, senior Sean Farrell tallied an RBI with a fielder's choice that scored Thomas and McCambridge did the same with a sacrifice fly out that sent home Conley. Neither team would score again in the game and XU took the 10-1 victory and the championship title.
Richard (4-0) recorded the win for Xavier after throwing six scoreless innings. He struck out a career-high six batters while walking only one. Senior Joe Kohler recorded the save for the Muskies, his first of the season, as he tossed three innings giving up one run.
Ken Graveline (6-2) took the loss for Rhode Island after putting in three innings of work. He gave up five runs on six hits and fanned two while walking one.
With the win, the Musketeers earn their first-ever trip to the NCAA Tournament with the A-10's automatic bid. Host sites and brackets will be announced on Monday, May 25, at 12:30 p.m. on ESPN.

AUBURN, Mass. — Auburn has embarked upon a series of collaborative efforts to attract and retain businesses, with officials continuing to look for ways to open the doors of communication.
"It's a collaborative effort, and it's a strategic partnership between the public sector and private sector," said Auburn Town Manager Julie Jacobson.
"The town administration, the selectboard, the finance board and town meeting have all worked hard to continue the town's financial strength, and I think that's important in this economy," she added
One effort is through Auburn's Economic Development Committee, a seven-member panel that makes recommendations to the town manager on strategies for stimulating economic growth.
Additionally, Jacobson said, the town has created a business roundtable made up of CEO's from Auburn businesses "ranging from small companies to major corporations."
This panel, which includes businesses such as Polar Beverages, Chuck's Steakhouse and Fuller Automotive, gives the town valuable input on what barriers companies face in Auburn and how the town can address them, said Jacobson.
"There's only so much the public sector can do, but we can create an environment that makes it easy for corporations and small businesses to be successful," she added.
The town also works closely with the Auburn Chamber of Commerce, with its president contributing to the town's business round table discussions.
"We benefit them, hopefully by bringing in new businesses that join the Chamber, and they're an enormous asset for us in attracting new business," Jacobson said.
"It's definitely a collaborative effort, but it's not just about attracting new business, but retaining existing business," said Jacobson. "If we were to lose one major employer that employed 300 people, it would take quite a bit to make up for that job loss. So it's really critical for us to focus on our existing businesses and make sure they understand we're here to help them wherever we can, and want to help them facilitate their projects."
To help businesses, Jacobson said that, in the past four years, the Board of Selectmen has voted to lower the differential on the tax-rate, closing the gap between residential and commercial taxes to be more conducive to economic development.
"The selectmen have to recognize and balance the needs of the residents with the needs of businesses, but the better we can grow the pie, the more relief there will be to the residential taxpayer."

Rated 1.5 / 5 stars
It is an extremely generic game with below average graphics, visuals, and audio. It was also misplaced in the movies section. On the plus side, it does load and seems to run without any real bugs.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
This really isnt that bad. Just a mediocore bubble shooter, like the music is okay, the gameplay is okay, and the graphics are okay and I had only one bug and that's where the bubbles change color even though it's not supposed to. The thing where i'm really confused is that this is in the movie portal.
Rated 2 / 5 stars
This actually wasn't too bad. Just a generic little bubble shooter. The collision isn't the greatest, and the gameplay is a little slow, but it's by no means bad. I'm also a little impressed that this game actually has level design instead of just randomly colored sheets of bubbles, which in many ways puts it above a lot of games of this type.
The graphics really aren't bad in my opinion. Not very colorful, but the bubbles themselves look... Different. I like the style, it's unique. The music is rather dull and would probably kill you if you listened to it for too long.
The only huge bug I noticed was that if you shoot horizontally your ball will go back and forth (almost) indefinitely, creeping forward at the slowest goddamned pace ever. You could have made the minimum angle a little higher.
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Ok, I played this and, I really don't get why this is so low?
It's a decent game, it works, there doesn't seem to be anything bad about it, perhaps the colors are not so bright but that's about it really.
This is one of those games to mess about on or take time out of work to play on during a break.
Rated 1 / 5 stars
very very generic game

Wahhabism: Understanding the Roots and Role Models of Islamic Extremism
Lastly, the alliance made itself manifest in the holy struggle (jihad) against the atheist/Communist Soviets in Afghanistan. Salafis of all strains worked together as the righteous Sunnis to counter the Shiah-Communist threat, from proselytizing to killing to make their Salafism prevail. Indeed, Salafis have used both proselytizing and revolutionary means to express their message using both political and apolitical approaches. So-called Sunni terrorism today is perpetrated by radical Salafis who desire to replace infidel governments with myopic scholars who adhere to their fanatical interpretations and ideologies. Their tentacles are spread to all corners of the globe, including Bosnia, Albania, Indonesia, Philippines, Uzbekistan, England, Malaysia, South Africa, Lebanon, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. Salafis have demonstrated the havoc they are capable of wreaking in recent decades.

Absinthe Pigalle has a great wormwood profile which is surrounded by a warm and pleasant anise flavour. The bitter aftertaste - as this Absinthe is macerated and not distilled - is perfectly acceptable, it's this bitterness that has been described in literature so often. The louche is strong and the Absinthe has a natural light green color.

The Governor's Office of Appalachia has awarded the Ohio Valley Regional Development Commission (OVRDC) a $135,000 grant, to be used for programing supporting community and economic development activities throughout the region.
"This is a grant we get every year for our operations. This funding allows us to help communities with in our region," said John Hemmings, Director of OVRDC.
He said this years grant is a little higher than in years past, by $4,500.
Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional Development District (Washington County) and Ohio Mid-Eastern Governments Association (Guernsey County) also received similar grants from the Governor's Office of Appalachia to conduct similar activities.
"The Local Development Districts provide my office with valuable insight as we identify and support the needs of Ohio's Appalachian communities," said Jason Wilson, director of the Governor's Office of Appalachia in a released statement. "Together, we are making a difference in the region's economic growth."
Last week OVRDC broke ground for what will be their new office, located on State Route 220 in Waverly. It's estimated the new office building will cost about $600,000 to construct. With construction expected to be finished in early-spring.
According to its website, "OVRDC coordinates federal, state and local resources to encourage development in 12 southern Ohio counties: Adams, Brown, Clermont, Fayette, Gallia, Highland, Jackson, Lawrence, Pike, Ross, Scioto and Vinton."
For more information about OVRDC, visit www.ovrdc.org.

John Densmore...
Born in Los Angeles, John Densmore attended Santa Monica City College and California State University, Northridge.
He joined
The Doors
in 1965 and remained a member until the band's dissolution in 1973.
Densmore met keyboardist Ray Manzarek and guitarist Robby Krieger at a Transcendental Meditation lecture.
After the Doors' last performance with Morrison in New Orleans in 1970, the band agreed to discontinue performing live.
Densmore allowed "Riders on the Storm" to be used to sell Pirelli Tires, in England only. Densmore later stated that he "heard Jim's voice" in his ears and ended up donating the money earned to charity.
In 2002, Densmore vetoed an offer by Cadillac for $15 million for "Break on Through (To the Other Side)" because of his strong views to conserve the environment.
John Densmore formed a band with fellow ex-Doors Robby Krieger in 1973 called The Butts Band but disbanded after two albums in 1975.
John Densmore left rock and roll in the 1980s, moving to the world of dance as he performed with Bess Snyder and Co., touring the United States for two years. In 1984, at La Mama Theatre in New York, he made his stage acting debut in Skins, a one-act play he had written. In 1985, he won the LA Weekly Theater Award for music with Methusalem, directed by Tim Robbins.
In 1988, he played a feature role in Band Dreams and Bebop at the Gene Dynarski Theatre. He developed and performed a one-man piece from the short story, The King of Jazz, at the Wallenboyd Theatre in 1989. With Adam Ant, he co-produced Be Bop A Lula at Theatre Theatre in 1992. He has acted in numerous TV shows, most memorably as himself in the show Square Pegs, working as a drummer for Johnny Slash's band Open 24 Hours.
His film credits include: Get Crazy with Malcolm McDowell, Dudes directed by Penelope Spheeris, and The Doors directed by Oliver Stone.
As the drummer and an influential member of The Doors, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He worked as a technical adviser on the 1991 film The Doors, and was very impressed with Val Kilmer's performance as Morrison and overall was quite happy with the film.
In 2006, his band, Tribaljazz, released their first album of original work.
Densmore appears alongside Krieger and Manzarek in 2012's RE:GENERATION, a documentary directed by Amir Bar-Lev. It features Densmore collaborating on a new song with Skrillex.
In 2013 Densmore released "The Doors Unhinged", a book covering his legal battle with Krieger and Manzarek over the use of the name The Doors for a tour they were doing, and Densmore's veto over a 2003 offer by Cadillac to buy the rights to The Doors music.

John Densmore Website

...no, this is not Dave Tough - it's John Densmore
...but the resemblance is intentional. For an L.A. production of a play entitled "Bad Dreams and Bebop" former Doors drummer John Densmore was recruited to portray the legendary Dave Tough.

(Photo Credit: Todd Drexler/GoMocs.com): 11th-ranked Liam Johnston leads Chattanooga into the spring campaign
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.---The Chattanooga Mocs men's golf team begins its spring season Monday at the Mobile Bay Intercollegiate. Nine Mocs will be action with the five-man team joined by four individuals.
The nation's 11th-ranked golfer Liam Johnston (Dumfries, Scotland) leads the five-man squad. Johnston is joined by Davis Bunn (Knoxville, Tenn.), Wes Gosselin (Knoxville), Chris Robb (Aberdeenshire, Scotland) and Ewan Scott (St. Andrews, Scotland). Zac Stolz (Sydney, Australia), Brooks Thomas (Chattanooga, Tenn.), Stuart Thomas (Knoxville) and Benni Weilguni (Langenlois, Austria) tee it up as individuals.
