CUMBERLAND — Chris Magill has had a history of top-three finishes at the Arnold Mills Road Race, an event he's won a record five times.
The 38-year-old former St. Raphael Academy standout had every intention to make an attempt at a sixth crown in the 43rd edition of the Cumberland race Monday morning.
Those thoughts, however, were quickly erased after the first mile.
Bobby Hartnett, a onetime Cumberland High all-stater and Columbia University grad, built a sizable 10-second cushion over Magill and the rest of the chase pack at the mile mark and won going away under a sweltering sun on the Fourth of July. Hartnett toured the moderately-challenging four-mile course in a winning time of 20:23.
In the battle for second place, Magill out-dueled Sam Spencer, 20, of Seekonk, crossing the finish line in front of the North Cumberland Fire Station in 21:18. Spencer was third among the 508 finishers at 21:22.
"Right after the mile mark," Magill admitted, "I knew that I was basically running for second at that point."
Hartnett, a 2006 grad of Cumberland where he earned multiple all-state honors, becomes the first from CHS to earn the individual title at Arnold Mills since Jim Dandeneau captured the 1998 race on the original four-mile course.
"This is great," he said. "I knew most of the people cheering for me so that was pretty cool. It was exciting."
The 23-year-old runner, who graduated with a degree in Economics from Columbia in 2010, cruised through the opening mile in 4:58. By the two-mile mark, passed in slightly over 10 minutes, he was well on his way to victory.
"It was hot out there," said Hartnett, who now resides in Manhattan and does financial operations for State Street Bank. "I just wanted to kind of be aggressive and get into a rhythm right away. I run for the New York Athletic Club and I live in Manhattan now. I have been doing some races and some good workouts so I knew I was in good shape."
A couple of those races that gave Harnett added confidence for Monday's event occurred last month. On June 19, he was seventh among more than 4,600 participants at the NYRR Portugal Day five-miler in Central Park, running the hilly course in 25:16. The following day, he was second in a field of 15,000 at the J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge with a fast time of 17:42 for the 3.5-mile distance.
Hartnett was running Arnold Mills for the first time since placing 14th overall in the 2007 race.
"Last summer I was going to run it," he said. "I went out too late the night before watching the fireworks and changed my mind the day of. I felt I could have contended last year. I wanted to be in good shape to be able to do it this year."
Magill, who has had at least a dozen top-three finishers at the Cumberland race over the last few decades, was more than satisfied with his effort on Monday. Just two and a half months ago, he became the proud father of his third son, Copper Ross Magill.
"I can't complain with second place," he said. "Honestly, I always think there is a chance that I can win, even though I haven't won in a while. I have never lost that attitude. My legs may have lost a little bit, but I still have the kick and experience to hold off."
"I always run to win so I was chasing Bobby for a mile," he continued. "My legs didn't have it. My mind had it. Various guys passed me, but I always positioned myself for a chance to finish as a runner-up."
Cumberland's Yvonne Libano, a former Providence College runner, won her second straight women's title, running just over six-minute pace with her time of 24:09, good for 27th overall. The 35-year-old Libano was followed across the line by two more Cumberland residents. Kim Maguire, 36, the 2008 champion, was second (37th overall) in 25:21. Another past winner, Katie Libby, 33, was third (43rd overall) at 25:35.
Libano, who lives on the course on Abbott Run Valley Road, was never challenged on the familiar roads. She hit the first mile around 5:50.
"I went out a little quicker than I thought, but it was helpful with all the people cheering me on," she said. "I just kind of stayed with a pack of guys and held on."
FINAL KICK: Utilizing the race as a quick tempo run for his summer training, last year's champion Brian Doyle, a sophomore at Northeastern University, was ninth overall in 21:52…Anthony Gonsalves, a former Tolman High standout and winner of the first annual PFC Kyle Coutu 5K this past May, finished fourth with a time of 21:28.

"This is a terrible hockey team": The Islanders Knock Out the Rangers in 1975
In the Islanders third year in the NHL, 1974-75, they made the playoffs for the first time. After two abysmal seasons — only 31 wins in 156 games — they finished 33-25-22 in '75 and tied the Rangers for second in the Patrick Division with 88 points. The two teams met in the first round of the playoffs for a best-of-three series that would vault the Islanders into the New York sports consciousness when they knocked out the long-established Rangers. The Islanders took Game One at the Garden, 3-2, and were routed 8-3 two nights later at the Coliseum. That setup a decisive Game Three the next night at the Garden. The Islanders held a 3-0 lead early in the game before the Rangers mounted a furious comeback to force overtime, which is where we'll pick up the story. The following is an excerpt from Dynasty: The Oral History of the New York Islanders, 1972-1984 and is republished with permission from author Greg Prato.
EDDIE WESTFALL: I had been there before in the playoffs and overtimes. So my thought was, "What did we do when I was a Boston Bruin when we got to the playoffs and overtime?" One thing we always said in the Bruin dressing room was, "When you're going to go to overtime, you've got to win as quickly as possible. You've got to be aggressive, you've got to take a little bit of a chance. You don't want to sit back." So that's what we had drummed up in the dressing room. They put out the oldest line on the team – JP Parisé, Jude Drouin, and Ed Westfall. And that's all we talked about – "Win the face-off, get the puck in, put pressure on them, and we'll take our chances down in their end of the ice. They can't score if the puck's in their backyard."
JP PARISÉ: I think it was Dave Lewis who dumped the puck into the Rangers corner. And at that time, Jude and I had a play, where he would go to the puck, and just kind of bang it behind the net. I would automatically go to the far corner and receive that pass. We bought time so I could make a play – give him a chance to get back in front of the net or follow behind the net. We had different options. And for some reason, I decided to go to the net, instead. And Jude got to the point, first. One of the Rangers didn't pick up the puck, so Jude was right on top. He's the guy that made the whole play – he spotted me going towards the net. All of a sudden, it was right on my stick, and I had a whole open net. I scored, and that's the last I remembered, because after I scored, I got hit from behind. Brad Park hit me, and I fell down on the ice. But we all went nuts, and the game was over. It was just a great, great feeling.
STAN FISCHLER: The overtime happened so fast, it was a blink of an eye. The whole sequence was surreal – so fast and very little replay availability in those days. I watched it on television. I still can't believe it.
EDDIE WESTFALL: That was a playoff record at the time [the goal was scored eleven seconds into overtime]. We were surprised. You don't know you're going to score. You can't set it up to say, "This is how you're going to score it." You set it up so you give you and your teammates the best opportunity to win the hockey game. And that's really what that whole thing was about – to give yourself a chance to win it.
JEAN POTVIN: I remember sitting on the bench, and watching a lot of the fans still trying to make their way back from the hot dog stand to their seats, when JP scored eleven seconds into overtime. I will never forget with all the cheering we were doing, you couldn't help but when you were skating off the ice, to notice all the fans that were still in their seats – many of them were just there with a blank stare. They could not believe that this had taken place. And you had people who were still coming back from the hot dog stand, rushing to see what the roar was, and they couldn't believe it! People were telling them, "It's over. They scored." It was unbelievable.
GLENN "CHICO" RESCH: To get the early goal in the overtime really helped. I wouldn't have wanted that to go too much further than that.
AL ARBOUR: It really sticks out. Beating the Rangers is really something. We were just starting at the time, and that made our team go. It was a very big win for us.
CLAIRE ARBOUR: I certainly do remember that! Oh my gosh – I was there. I went to very few Rangers games. It wasn't an easy thing for me to do. Our neighbors down in the courtyard, they knew nothing about hockey, but they said, "Claire, if you want to go to the game, we'll take you." So off we go to the game. We're sitting, and we're very politely applauding every time the Islanders scored. So people around us kind of knew we were Islanders fans. They didn't say anything. Then, when they tied it up and we were going into overtime, they tapped us on the shoulder, and said, "Oh, you guys had a great season." They were kissing us goodbye. "We go to the Coliseum, we have season tickets there too, and it's really nice. You can be proud of your team." And of course, the overtime lasted so little – I still don't know how I got the courage to turn around and say, "Well …see you at the Coliseum!" I was so excited; it was such an unexpected thing. Poor Al – he was in tremendous pain with his back. And they all got up at the same time. The bench went flying on his feet, and he's trying to cheer that he's happy, but he's trying to get the bench off his feet. [Laughs]
BILLY HARRIS: We get down the back freight elevator to the bus, and there's a mob scene out in the street. They've got beer bottles; they're throwing shit at us. We had to get a police escort to the Midtown Tunnel.
CLAIRE ARBOUR: We came back home, and sat there in total disbelief, that we had won the series. But that was always what he aimed at – to win the playoffs.
AL ARBOUR: It was really great to beat the Rangers in the first round, the first time we were in the playoffs. I mean, it was unbelievable.
BOB NYSTROM: In just the first round with the Rangers, I think it was as if we had grown up. That series really put us on the map, because we beat "the big bad Rangers." From that standpoint, it was a real feather in our cap. We finally got a little bit of recognition.
GARY "BABA BOOEY" DELL'ABATE: With the Rangers series, my dad was really excited about it – he always loved the underdog. So after they beat the Rangers, it was a huge statement.
STAN FISCHLER: That series was without a doubt the turning point for the team. The enormity of the upset – considering the relative talent on the team – cannot be measured. It was one of these hundred-to-one shots, and the way it was done was even more amazing. It was so tremendous in so many ways. First of all, it established that this was an exciting team. There were individuals now who were becoming personalities, like Potvin and Gillies. And of course, the fact that they were young and were underdogs, there was a romance about these guys. It was the key. It was the kind of thing that's missing in teams like the Blue Jackets, for example, or the Thrashers – these guys never won. And the Islanders won. It started with that playoff.
GARY "BABA BOOEY" DELL'ABATE: Everything after the Rangers win was gravy.
GLENN "CHICO" RESCH: It was just sort of our year. It was meant to be our "Cinderella year/coming out year."
JEAN POTVIN: I'll never forget in the paper the next day [after the Islanders eliminated the Rangers], Derek Sanderson was quoted as saying, "This is a terrible hockey team" – the Islanders are. "They were lucky to beat us. I predict they will never win another game this year in the playoffs." And we almost didn't.

BUFFALO, N.Y.-Saturday afternoon at Nichols Clarence beat the Vikings 9-to-4 in a non-league boys lacrosse matchup.
Nichols took an early 3-1 lead but the Red Devils roared back to take a 4-3 just before the end of the first half. Nichols tied it at 4 with 7:58 remaining in the third quarter on a goal by # 19 Ryan Petro. Jacob Parentis assisted on the goal.
The tie lasted less than three minutes. With five minutes remaining in the third quarter Clarence took the lead for good. # 25 Lex Oaks scored off an assist from Matt Colickia. Clarence added four more goals to win it going away 9-to-4.
# 21 Michael Roth had three goals and an assist for Clarence.
With the win Clarence improves to 7-3 on the season. Head coach Mike Silverstein told Two On Your Side's Stu Boyar "we settled down in the second half .We got impatient offensively against their zone and then settled down in the second half. In the first half we took bad shots and didn't look for a good shot."
Clarence has a rematch with Orchard Park this Wednesday. The Quakers won their first meeting 18-10. Silverstein told Stu "they are the cream of the crop in Class A. Its a game you always mark on your calender. We have to go out there and play our best lacrosse in prime time."
Nichols drops to 5-7 on the season. Head coach Rob Strickland told Stu " if we did a better job of possessing the ball on offense for the full game the outcome may have different."

The success of HAART is largely dependant on an individual's ability to adhere strictly to an antiretroviral regimen. Regimen characteristics that affect adherence include dosing frequency and pill burden. Several studies have shown improved adherence with lower pill burden and a meta-analysis of the virological outcome in relation to pill burden has shown a significant correlation between lower pill burden and better virological outcome. A systematic review of studies across a range of medical specialties demonstrated that once daily therapy improves adherence relative to more frequent dosing although statistical significance was not demonstrated relative to twice daily regimens.

Jessica Dobson-Tufo had other plans coming out of high school.
She didnt plan on attending Jefferson Community College, and when those plans changed, she didnt expect to still be playing collegiate softball this spring.
But the third-year student is back at her familiar position of shortstop, ready to end her decorated JCC athletics career by leading the softball team back to the Region 3 playoffs.
Originally, the diversely talented athlete from Carthage High School had plans to attend SUNY Oswego to play volleyball.
I was supposed to be going there out of high school, I got accepted but there were some things that came about, some family issues. My mom got sick, she had cancer, Dobson-Tufo said.
Dobson-Tufos mother passed away in the fall of 2011, during her sophomore soccer season at JCC.
Dobson-Tufo said that the entire school athletic department served as a support group through the difficult time. They were there for me pretty much through the whole thing, Dobson-Tufo said.
The soccer team changed plans for its annual pink-out cancer awareness game that season, instead dedicating the game to Dobson-Tufos mom.
I really think that being part of that team at that time really helped me through it, because its not an easy thing to go through at this age, Dobson-Tufo said.
Dobson-Tufo has provided plenty of help to JCC athletics, excelling in three sports and providing a presence that fifth-year coach Charlie Bridge said has helped cultivate the family atmosphere, he had envisioned for his softball program.
It feeds to everybody else on the team, just the character and personality that she has, Bridge said.
Dobson-Tufo played two years of soccer, anchoring the teams defense and earning All-Mid-State Athletic Conference honors in both seasons 2010 and 2011 and was selected to the All-Region 3 Team as a sophomore.
This past winter, she stepped onto the volleyball team midway through the season and helped the school to its first conference title in years.
She started every game for the softball team as a freshman in 2011, helping that program to an 18-7 record in Region 3 and a regional playoff berth its best season in Bridges tenure.
But last spring, another wrench was thrown into Dobson-Tufos plans. She tore the anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee during the teams fourth game of the season and was forced to miss the year after starting 7-for-11 at the plate with three RBIs.
She put in a lot of work that winter. She was so driven to have a great year, Bridge said.
Dobson-Tufo learned just over a month ago that she would receive a medical redshirt for last season. That, combined with her changing majors from elementary education to athletic training, allowed her an extra year of eligibility to play softball this year. She plans to transfer to SUNY Brockport to play either volleyball or soccer in the fall.
Dobson-Tufo doesnt plan to play softball beyond this year. But then again, plans can change.
Here is a look at the JCC spring sports teams.
Coach: Charlie Bridge (5th year).
2012 record: 16-17 overall (14-15 Region 3).
Outlook: The team will get its best defensive infielder (Dobson-Tufo) and its best outfielder (Taylore Kelsey, concussion) back from a strong 2011 team after both players missed last season with injuries. Also back is the teams top pitcher, sophomore Lindsey Croneiser. Bridge hopes they can add to a good freshmen class, highlighted by Mary Young, who led Jamesville-Dewitt to the Class A state title game last season, and Lauren Youngs, a pitcher from Okinawa, Japan. The Cannoneers will also play on a new enclosed, on-campus field this season.
Roster: Jane Judware (OF, Fr.); Paige Morgia (OF, Fr.); Taylore Kelsey (OF, So.); Samantha Giruzzi (P, Fr.); Lauren Youngs (P/2B, Fr.); Jessica Dobson-Tufo (SS, So.); Kate Gehrke (C, Fr.); Mary Young (3B, Fr.); Megan Couturier (OF, Fr.); Jenna Ferlito (OF, Fr.); Nictoria Bates (OF, Fr.); Lindsey Croneiser (P/OF, So.); Kari Gehrke (OF/C, So.).
Coach: John Northrop (5th year).
2012 record: 20-26 (13-11).
Outlook: The Cannoneers will rely on a lefty-dominated offense and a deep stable of 15 pitchers to follow up on the first 20-win season of Northrops tenure. Sophomore Nicolas Espino is back at the leadoff spot. He batted for a .395 average last year and ranked second in Region 3 with 32 stolen bases. Josh Amann is back to anchor the pitching staff after leading the team in wins last season. Mitchell Dubois, who was second in wins, and Jake Welch, who missed significant time with injuries, are also back to pitch from last years team. The key to this season, according to Northrop, is if the team can win close games, which were a struggle with a young group a season ago.
Roster: Kyle Simmons (SS/P, Fr.); Calder Roggie (INF, Fr.); Jordan Parker (C, So.); Mike Mosher (INF/P, So.); Josh Amann (P, So.); Eury Villalona (P, Fr.); Ariel Suriel (3B/P, Fr.); Ryan McDougall (OF/INF, Fr.); Louie Diaz (OF, Fr.); Nathan Mastervick (OF, So.); Terrence Belec (1B, Fr.); Jason Hardie (C, Fr.); Joey Sewillo (INF, Fr.); Elliot Martin (C, Fr.); James Adydan (P, So.); Corey Weller (P, So.); Rolando Rincon (P, Fr.); Nicolas Espino (2B, So.); Erric Barnier (OF, So.); Adam Terrillion (P, So.); Jorge Mera (OF/P, Fr.); Jake Welch (P, So.); Jordan Delaney (P, Fr.); Junior Garcia (P, Fr.); Mitchell Dubois (P, So.); Tyler Decker (1B, So.); James Matthews (P, Fr.); Chris Ballester (INF/P, Fr.).
Interim head coach: Dave Vespa.
2012 record: 4-11 (4-9).
Outlook: JCC has its eyes on returning to regional playoffs after a down year. They had qualified every year from 2008-11. Vespa will take the place of veteran coach Mark Streiff, at least for the early portion of the season, while he is out for medical reasons. Attackman Kyle Scordo is back to lead the offense, which expects to be strong with new additions Travis McGraw and Joe Spooner. Taylor Mustizer will anchor the defense in his second season.
Roster: Travis McGraw (A/M, Fr.); Kristian Baxter (M, So.); Kyle Scordo (A/M, So.); Matthew Damon (M, Fr.); Jonathon Walters (D, So.); Jacob Speno (M, So.); Dan Lazore (A/M, Fr.); Christian Booth (M, So.); Kelsey Brady (A/M, Fr.); Taylor Mustizer (D, So.); Ken Hall (M, So.); Will Benko (M, Fr.); Andrew Derouin (D, So.); Vince Renzi (D, Fr.); Javier Primicias (M, So.); Cale Siver (D, Fr.); Michael Dake (D, So.); Robert Hughes (G, Fr.); Mike Mulligan (D, Fr.); Joe Spooner (A/M, Fr.); Dave Damon (M, Fr.).
Coach: Whitney Bachner (2nd year).
2012 record: 10-6 (10-4).
Outlook: The Cannoneers are looking to build on a strong 2012 season that ended in the final four of the regional playoffs, but will have to do so without a bench and with much of its scoring talent gone from a season ago. Midfielder Gabby Navarra will be the strongest returning midfielder, with the ability to play offense and defend, while Caitlin Stone returns to anchor the defense for a second straight year. JCC expects improved goalie play with freshman Ashley Kirch.
Roster: Gabrielle Navarra (M, So.); Cierra Recor (A, So.); Kaitlyn Rajner (M, Fr.); Brittany Campbell (A, So.); Allison Brady (A, Fr.); Caitlin Stone (D, So.); Paige Hart (M, Fr.); Brianna Bates (D, So.); Jorden Mead (A, So.); Ashley Kirch (G, Fr.).
Coach: James Ambrose (5th year).
Outlook: Mike Donnelly, who made it to nationals last season, is back for his second season to be the anchor of a young group. Chadd Call, who qualified for states at General Brown, will join the team along with high school teammates Riley Parker and Andrew Robinson. Freshman Matthew Wojasinski is also expected to claim a travel spot.
Roster: Chadd Call (Fr.); Vinny Cesario III (So.); Matthew Dermady (So.); Kevin Dibble Jr. (So.); Michael Donnelly (So.); George LaBarr (Fr.); Bryant McCarthy (Fr.); Issac Newton (Fr.); Riley Parker (Fr.); Andrew Robinson (Fr.); Matthew Wojasinski (Fr.).

Marxism, Leninism, Marxism-Leninism, Stalinism, Maoism... The communist ideologies persist in carrying names of individuals in spite of their expressed principles of the rule of the masses.
They also tend to consist of idolatry. One person is given complete charge and swiftly demands to be worshiped like a deity. Beyond any reason, as if that person was the creator of the universe and then some.
I noticed it way back in the 1960's, when I was a kid and these movements were high fashion. Their supporters spoke of revolting against the men in power and substituting their rule with one of the people. But why, then, were they obsessed with these individuals? It didn't make sense to me, and still doesn't. So, I had my doubts.
Not that idolatry is a monopoly of the communists. It pops up just about everywhere, as far as political power is concerned. I guess we simply haven't grown out of monarchy yet.
Democracy may have been invented already by the ancient Greeks, some 2,500 years ago. But it was forgotten for a number of those years. Since its recent renaissance, it's still in its infancy. We easily slip back into the habits of monarchy. Communists do, too, for sure. More than most.

WFP has been in Zambia since 1967 and is committed to providing food assistance to more than 900,000 people in Zambia in 2013. WFP programme activities in Zambia operate within the framework of a Country Programme (CP), which began in 2011, and a Protracted Relief and Response (PRRO) operation which is in its phase-out stage. The CP aims to support social protection for vulnerable households, while the PRRO provides food assistance to refugees in need.
All WFP activities in Zambia are implemented as an integral part of the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) and in line with the 'Delivering as One' mechanism under which UN agencies in selected countries have pledged to work together to ensure a more coordinated and effective level of action in areas of development, humanitarian assistance and the environment. Though not among the original pilot countries to sign up to the initiative, Zambia is among those that have agreed to take specific steps towards the goal of Delivering as One.
The WFP Strategic Plan (2008-2013) is aligned with both the Sixth National Development Programme (2011-2015) and the UNDAF (2011-2015). The overarching goal of the strategy is to support the Zambian Government's priorities to reach the MDG hunger targets and ensure long-term solutions to hunger, consistent with the Government of Zambia's 'Vision 2030'. The strategy is premised on a social protection approach that demands a shift from reactive and localized poverty reduction efforts to country-led proactive, consistent, and sustainable nationwide poverty reduction initiatives implemented in harmony by multi-stakeholders.
Since the 1970s, the Government of the Republic of Zambia has consistently granted asylum to people seeking refuge from Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Angola, Burundi, Rwanda and Somalia. WFP food assistance to refugees in Zambia was phased out at the end of June 2013, and the refugee PRRO will officially close on the 31st of December 2013 due to the reduction in the number of vulnerable refugees to below 5,000 (the minimum threshold for WFP assistance as stipulated in the global UNHCR/WFP Memorandum of Understanding signed in July 2002). As part of a phase-out plan, WFP provided technical and financial support to United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to conduct a market survey in August 2013 that assessed the potential effectiveness of a Cash and Vouchers (C&V) programme among the refugee population. Through an examination of availability, affordability, and acceptability by the local population, the market survey identified C&V as an effective delivery channel for locally-sourced food products to the refugee population. As such, plans are underway by UNHCR for its implementation.
Country Programme
The CP contributes to WFP's Strategic Objectives 2, 4 and 5 and United Nations Development Assistance Framework Outcomes 1 to 5, as well as towards the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The CP focuses on:
• Improving human capital through food based safety-nets;
• Improving Government preparedness to respond to and mitigate disasters as a way of reducing vulnerability; and
• Expanding market opportunities for smallholder farmers by leveraging local food procurement.
WFP is expanding its Home-Grown School Feeding (HGSF) programme to strengthen its link to small-scale producers, while taking measures to transfer ownership and management of the programme to the Zambian Government. HGSF works within the Government's agricultural frameworks, and promotes the production and consumption of nutritious products. The Home Grown School Feeding programme in its expanded version provides an opportunity for the Government to meet its poverty reduction, food security, social protection, nutrition and education objectives.
The Government's commitment to addressing under-nutrition is reflected in Zambia's membership of the SUN Early Riser initiative. Stunting levels in Zambia stand at 45.5%, a high prevalence relative to other countries in the region. WFP, working with other UN agencies and cooperating partners, has committed itself to supporting the Government in attaining its targets for the reduction of stunting. This support will come at various levels, including policy through advocacy and programme design involving the mainstreaming of nutrition in key sectors like social protection, education and agriculture. WFP will also use its HGSF programme as an entry point for nutrition education.
Purchase for Progress
Purchase for Progress (P4P) is a WFP global pilot project aimed at supporting smallholder farmers to improve their marketing opportunities through increased access and better linkages to more lucrative markets. Through P4P, WFP is supporting the Zambian Government in strengthening its capacity to provide social safety nets to assist poor and hungry households and is committed to purchasing Zambian-grown commodities for food assistance interventions in the country and the region.
P4P is currently using its purchasing power to mobilize and procure food supplies from smallholder farmers for the school feeding basket in all the districts where WFP is implementing the HGSF programme. This is in turn helping trigger increased productivity among local farmers and thereby increasing their food and nutrition security and incomes. Activities implemented under the P4P programme in collaboration with implementing partners include: the empowerment of women through animal traction (WEAT), increasing market access and post-harvest handling and storage, and promoting sustainable agriculture methods and business and entrepreneurship skills through training.
To implement its P4P activities, WFP works with various partners including ZAMACE, Musika, World Vision, Kawambwa District Farmers Association (KDFA) Young Women Christian Association (YWCA), Dunavant, ADRA, Ministry of agriculture and livestock and Heifer. P4P activities are implemented in five provinces/regions and 11 districts, namely: Southern Province (Kalomo, Choma, Monze, and Mazabuka districts), Central province (Kabwe and Mkushi districts), Eastern Province (Petauke, Katete, Chadiza, and Chipata district), Luapula Province (Kawambwa district), and North-western Province (Mwinilunga district).
Mobile Delivery and Trucking
The Mobile Delivery and Tracking (MDT) unit is unique to WFP Zambia. Originally started to roll out an electronic food voucher program known as Splash, it has transitioned to providing technical support to national programmes in agriculture, education, health, and social protection programmes. The unit supports the Government through the Food Reserve Agency, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Health, and Ministry of Community Development Mother and Child Health.
The MDT unit participates in several Mobile Technology (M-Tech) Technical Working Groups with the Government, and is a vital member of the Cooperating Partners Group, which includes UNICEF, DFID, and Irish AID among others.
Currently, the unit is implementing the following long-term projects:
• Mobile Data Collection for the Social Cash Transfer Programme
• Mobile Technology pilot for the Ministry of Education
• Mobile Technology pilot for the Food Reserve Agency
• Engaging the private sector on the distribution of an affordable, acceptable, and accessible nutritious food product

On March 26 the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Utah Price Field Office will open the Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry for the season.
One of the world's greatest fossil resources, the quarry offers visitors outstanding educational and recreational opportunities. Visitors can view preserved fossils and replicas and observe fossils as working paleontologists excavate them. Children can imagine what life might have been like at the quarry when dinosaurs roamed Utah; families can relax and enjoy lunch at the quarry picnic tables; and, adventurous visitors can hike the trails around the quarry itself.
From March 26 to Memorial Day, the quarry will be open Friday through Sunday. From Memorial Day, May 31, through Labor Day, Sept. 6, the quarry is open daily. After Labor Day to the end of October, the quarry will return to weekend hours. Quarry hours of operation are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., except on Sundays when doors are open from noon to 5 p.m.
Visitors 15 and under are free.
Please note, the Quarry can facilitate large groups of visitors, as well as educational groups, but advanced arrangements should be made through the Price Field Office at (435) 636-3600.
The Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry is located approximately 30 miles south of Price at the end of a graded, gravel road. From Price, head south on Hwy 10 to the Cleveland/Elmo turnoff and follow the "Dinosaur Quarry" signs located at the intersections. The last 12 miles of travel are on graded, unpaved road.

Dr. Robotnik generally falls into the Bowser category of video game villains. He really wants to be evil, but he's kept from reaching his true potential due to an ESRB system that won't let him murder fuzzy animals. He has potential, but it remains perpetually untapped.

17 U.S. Code § 411 - Registration and civil infringement actions
(a) Except for an action brought for a violation of the rights of the author under section 106A (a), and subject to the provisions of subsection (b), [1] no civil action for infringement of the copyright in any United States work shall be instituted until preregistration or registration of the copyright claim has been made in accordance with this title. In any case, however, where the deposit, application, and fee required for registration have been delivered to the Copyright Office in proper form and registration has been refused, the applicant is entitled to institute a civil action for infringement if notice thereof, with a copy of the complaint, is served on the Register of Copyrights. The Register may, at his or her option, become a party to the action with respect to the issue of registrability of the copyright claim by entering an appearance within sixty days after such service, but the Register's failure to become a party shall not deprive the court of jurisdiction to determine that issue.
(1) A certificate of registration satisfies the requirements of this section and section 412, regardless of whether the certificate contains any inaccurate information, unless—
(A) the inaccurate information was included on the application for copyright registration with knowledge that it was inaccurate; and
(2) In any case in which inaccurate information described under paragraph (1) is alleged, the court shall request the Register of Copyrights to advise the court whether the inaccurate information, if known, would have caused the Register of Copyrights to refuse registration.
(3) Nothing in this subsection shall affect any rights, obligations, or requirements of a person related to information contained in a registration certificate, except for the institution of and remedies in infringement actions under this section and section 412.
(c) In the case of a work consisting of sounds, images, or both, the first fixation of which is made simultaneously with its transmission, the copyright owner may, either before or after such fixation takes place, institute an action for infringement under section 501, fully subject to the remedies provided by sections 502 through 505 andsection 510, if, in accordance with requirements that the Register of Copyrights shall prescribe by regulation, the copyright owner—
(1) serves notice upon the infringer, not less than 48 hours before such fixation, identifying the work and the specific time and source of its first transmission, and declaring an intention to secure copyright in the work; and

Historical and Revision Notes
house report no. 94–1476
The first sentence of section 411 (a) restates the present statutory requirement that registration must be made before a suit for copyright infringement is instituted. Under the bill, as under the law now in effect, a copyright owner who has not registered his claim can have a valid cause of action against someone who has infringed his copyright, but he cannot enforce his rights in the courts until he has made registration.
The second and third sentences of section 411 (a) would alter the present law as interpreted in Vacheron & Constantin-Le Coultre Watches, Inc. v. Benrus Watch Co., 260 F.2d 637 (2d Cir. 1958). That case requires an applicant, who has sought registration and has been refused, to bring an action against the Register of Copyrights to compel the issuance of a certificate, before suit can be brought against an infringer. Under section 411, a rejected claimant who has properly applied for registration may maintain an infringement suit if notice of it is served on the Register of Copyrights. The Register is authorized, though not required, to enter the suit within 60 days; the Register would be a party on the issue of registrability only, and a failure by the Register to join the action would "not deprive the court of jurisdiction to determine that issue."
Section 411 (b) is intended to deal with the special situation presented by works that are being transmitted "live" at the same time they are being fixed in tangible form for the first time. Under certain circumstances, where the infringer has been given advance notice, an injunction could be obtained to prevent the unauthorized use of the material included in the "live" transmission.

Controversy over an executive order issued by Rick Perry in 2007 is following the Texas Governor on the presidential campaign trail. In New Hampshire on Saturday and in Iowa on Monday, Perry faced questions about his order to have girls entering the sixth grade in Texas vaccinated against the human papillomavirus, a common sexually transmitted disease and the cause of about 70 percent of all cervical cancer, according to the federal Center for Disease Control.
Girls would be exempt from the order only if a parent or guardian signed an affidavit claiming a "conscientious objection." The order, signed by the Governor on February 2, 2007, became the subject of sharp and widespread criticism and the Legislature promptly passed a law revoking it. According to the ABC News blog, "The Note," Perry was asked about the controversial order during a backyard reception for the candidate at the home of state Rep. Pamela Tucker in Greenland, New Hampshire.

|Written by Staff Reports
|Tuesday, 26 April 2011 06:30
The Hickory Crawdads fell to the Augusta GreenJackets, 9-3, before 1,111 fans at L.P. Frans Stadium on Monday.After both starters dealt two scoreless frames to start the game, the GreenJackets (6-12) plated a pair of two-out runs in the top of the third against RHP Nick Tepesch (L, 0-2). 2B Carlos Willoughby singled and LF Raynor Campbell doubled to keep the inning going, before 3B Adam Duvall drove both in with a base hit to make it 2-0.
Augusta struck again in the fifth inning to stretch it to 3-0. CF Chris Lofton led off with a double, moved to third on a fly ball to center and scored on an RBI ground out by Campbell, adding another tally to the lead.
The Crawdads (12-6) got on the board and chipped away with a run in the bottom of the fifth against RHP Justin Schumer (W, 2-1). LF Jhonny Gomez got himself on with a one-out single and advanced quickly to second on a walk drawn by C Kellin Deglan. Both runners then moved up on a wild pitch, before CF Jake Skole came through with an RBI single to right field, scoring Gomez. Deglan also tried to score on the play, but was thrown out at the plate by RF Ryan Scoma, leaving Augusta up, 3-1, through five.
The GreenJackets got back to it in the top of the sixth, increasing the lead with a two-run homer by DH Devin Harris, making it 5-1. However, Hickory again came right back to keep it close with two runs in the bottom of the frame. With two outs, RF Josh Richmond and 2B Odubel Herrera singled to extend the inning, and both scored on a two-run double by 3B Christian Villanueva, cutting it to 5-3.
Augusta, though, went on to score four unanswered runs the rest of the way. Harris drove in three of the four with an RBI double in the seventh and and another two-run homer in the ninth, pacing the GreenJackets 9-3 win.

• lowcostholidays forecast record breaking 2013
• Price still the main focus for cash conscious holiday customers
• 20% of all lowcostholidays Irish customers now departing from Cork Airport
lowcostholidays.ie remain buoyant about the Irish holiday market after the popular online holiday company announced a record breaking start to its first seven weeks of business for 2013. Irish MD Clem Walshe, said, "It's not easy to forecast with any great certainty in the current climate but the dramatic increase in the levels of both site traffic and early bookings are key indicators that there's a lot more consumer confidence out there than we initially anticipated."
The lowcostholidays brand has now become one of the most searched holiday terms in Ireland. Walshe continued "We had a record breaking number of visitors in January and whilst February has seen the customary dip in visitor numbers we're still looking at coming in well ahead of plan and effectively doubling the amount of traffic we enjoyed last year".
Reasons quoted for the somewhat unprecedented level of business include an increase in brand awareness and a fast user friendly site with a massive choice of holiday options. But consumer feedback ranked 'price' as the main overriding factor as to why they decided to book with lowcostholidays. "Price is still the main consideration for many holiday consumers and the majority of the early bookers cashed in on tempting lead in prices and exclusive sale offers for their well-earned summer getaway to the sun. All inclusive packages are proving to be a very attractive option this year due to the fact they make overseas spend easier to plan, a big plus for families in particular."
Lanzarote, Algarve, Gran Canaria and The Costa del Sol are the main beach destinations of choice with Cork holiday makers sighting short flights and a wide selection of good value accommodation to choose from as the key factors in the decision making process.
London, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Milan and Paris are proving to be the most popular city break destinations from Cork with Mexico (Cancun), The Dominican Republic and Orlando appealing to customers willing to travel further afield.
lowcostholidays.ie was one of the few Irish travel companies to have launched a major advertising campaign in 2013 and the strategy has proved to be a highly successful move for the online holiday provider. Titled, 'go on you deserve it' the campaign encourages people to leave the bad weather behind and get away for a well-earned break in the sun. It featured on all the main advertising channels including online, TV, outdoor, radio & print media.

|Written by Steve Frank
|Tuesday, 09 July 2013 12:46
Fire destroyed a pickup truck traveling NC 105 just after noon today. Foscoe Fire was called to the scene at about 12:15 after the engine compartment of the truck erupted in flames as it pulled over onto the lot of the Tomato Shack just above Bairds Creek Road. In spite of the intensity of the fire
reported by the first 9-1-1 callers and still evident as the fire company arrived, Foscoe firemen had the blaze out in short order, but the truck was totaled. No injuries were reported, the cause still under investigation.

The Temporary Travel Office produces a variety of services relating to tourism and technology aimed at exploring the non-rational connections existing between public and private spaces. The Travel Office has operated in a variety of locations, including Missouri, Chicago, Southern California and Norway.
urbanhermes fashion display
an augmented messenger bag that aims to incorporate the expressive signals of electronic display into the material-based environment of physical fashion. the bag is able to change its dynamic display within the context of its social environment, providing versatile means for 'face-to-face signaling'.
the images are designed to be temporary: with each change-of-hands the image quality successively degrades. each image remembers its history, triggering any nearby ones if they share the same source. the goal of this wearable display is to accelerate the physical fashion cycle, facilitating more meaningful representions of self-identity. see also public fashion orchestra & illuminated clothing & wearable data architecture for similar concepts. [mit.edu|via unige.ch]
XPod a human activity
Tim Finin of UMBC points to a paper on XPOD as a prototype portable music player that can sense a user's context -- what she is doing, her level of activity, mood, etc. -- and that to refine its playlist. The device monitors several external variables from a streaming version of the BodyMedia SenseWear to model the user's context and predict the most appropriate music genre via a neural network.
[thank you Tim !!]
Viral Tracking
This is scary and annoying. This company has a service called The Viral Chart where marketing and advertising videos distributed on the internet for "viral marketing" purposes have a little "sprite" embedded in them that "phones home" over the network, even if you're just watching the file locally on your computer, and tells them whenever you play the file. (So they can track how well the campaign is working, see?) Ok, so, from now on whenever you watch something on your computer, ipod, whatever, discconnect it from the internet, or else open up the file with quicktime pro or whatever...
Floating Points 3: Ubiquitous Computing, Spring 2006
Floating Points 3: Ubiquitous Computing February 8 and March 15, 2006 Emerson College and Live Online
Emerson College and New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc./Turbulence.org announce a new speaker series, "Floating Points 3" [FP3] that will address the subject of "Ubiquitous Computing" or "Ubicomp", where computing and wireless capabilities are so integrated into the fabric of everyday life (clothing, cars, homes, and offices) that the technologies recede into the background and become indistinguishable from everyday activities.
[FP3] will consist of two moderated panel discussions, one on February 8 and the other on March 15. The first will focus on artist-thinkers who work collaboratively with research teams--including scientists--to produce environments and systems that respond to the human presence; it will include Mark Goulthorpe, Susan Kozel and Chris Salter. For the second panel, we have invited artist-thinkers who question and confront the ongoing development of technical objects and work creatively to subvert them, for instance, the ever-enlarging practice of surveillance and data mining. Our guests will be Adam Greenfield, Beatriz da Costa and Brooke Singer (Preemptive Media), and Michelle Teran.

This exhibition begins with the experience of sitting in front of the monitor and looking out into the vast culture of possibility offered to us by the Internet. On the one hand it is external to us, what's out "there" on the net. On the other hand, it's inside us, the imagined space of the network. It's like being at the center of a cosmic architecture that is at once chaotic and highly organized and which we can know only in fragments. All of the works in this exhibition, which range from the witty to the hypnotic, either communicate or arise from this sense of the Internet.

I spent this last week working on Tree::Optimizer (and getting distracted by Rakudo *).
I've got the functionality described in my blog post last week mostly finished. The only thing remaining is making sure that recursive passes correctly handle nulls, which I'm about to work on.
The Google Summer of Code is almost over. Next Monday is the "suggested 'pencils down'" date. The following Monday is the "firm 'pencils down'" date. After that are final evaluations.
Here's my plan for the remainder of GSoC:
- Merge the pass-manager branch of my project's repo into master.
