With two massive road victories under their belt, the Fire play the final regular season game of 2013 at Toyota Park against Toronto FC on Saturday night (LIVE 7pm CT on My50/Time Warner Sports Wisconsin).
With six goals scored in the last two matches, the Men in Red are hitting form at the right time and know if results go their way, they could be guaranteed an MLS Cup Playoff spot by the final whistle. Toronto have nothing to play for but will be looking to play spoiler. Here are some tactical things to look out for from a tactical perspective.
Keeping up the high pressure tactic – play a high line and get players into the TFC box
As I mentioned before, the Fire have scored six goals in the last two games. The closest to that tally in a previous two-game MLS span has been four goals. With that in mind, the Men in Red must try and get people into the box whenever possible against Toronto.
In many games this season, Toronto have not been undone by individual brilliance, but rather defensive errors. TFC coach Ryan Nelson, a former defender, must be disgusted by the amount of tap in goals his team has allowed with Sporting KC, Montreal and New York all scoring simple goals against Toronto and all stemming from defenders ball watching and not following their marks.
The Fire need to try and take advantage of this by getting more players from the midfield into the box to support assumed strikers Mike Magee and Juan Luis Anangono. The high pressure tactic can be very beneficial to this, with players like Alex not allowing the defenders to have time and space on the ball. With the team playing a high line and not dropping deep, it will give players an opportunity to get forward and into the box faster.
The Rios conundrum – who to start in the center of midfield?
Arevalo Rios played two grueling matches for Uruguay over the past week, helping La Celeste qualify for the World Cup intercontinental playoff against Jordan.
After playing 180 minutes for his country and only returning to Chicago on Thursday, it might be difficult for him to start in the middle for the Fire on Saturday night.
WATCH: Magee, Berry talk Toronto FC
One reason that the coaching staff might decide to start Rios however is that Jeff Larentowicz is currently sitting on four yellow cards and one more against TFC would rule him out of the season finale at New York next Sunday.
Another option for the Men in Red could be to start Larentowicz and bring on Rios for the former New England man if the Fire are in a comfortable position.
That being said, as we have seen from the past two games, the high pressure tactic is effective regardless of who starts in the middle.
Muzzling Bobby Convey – a danger on both wings
Bobby Convey is one of the few players to have a strong year for TFC and the Fire must not allow him to create chances for target striker Bright Dike. Convey is equally comfortable playing on either wing and it wouldn't surprise me if he started on the right where he would link up with improving right back Mark Bloom.
While Bakary Soumare has found form again in the last few matches after having a few horror moments previously, Gonzalo Segares is a player that will be looking to have a better performance against TFC.
In 1v1 situations, Sega is very difficult to beat but the problems start when players make runs in behind him. The Costa Rican can sometimes be caught too high up the field while other times he is forced to move inside to cover for one of the center backs. Both of these were highlighted in last weekend's match against Dallas.
Against Toronto, I would also like to see the Fire's outside midfielder track back and help out Segares more, especially if Bloom gets forward. A composed and compact performance by the Fire's back four as a unit will give the team a very good chance of coming out of the game with three points and maybe even a guaranteed playoff spot.
Prediction: After having to endure a nervy end to last week's match, the Fire make it easier on fans by winning 2-0 with goals from Alex and Mike Magee.
Hey, look at that... For his vaillant performance en route to a win over FC Dallas, the folks over at MLSsoccer.com decided to make Mike Magee the #3 performer of the week!
And since we're on the subject of Mike Magee, we would like to subtly steer you in the direction to support him to be the MLS MVP. Check out the video below!
The Fire won back-to-back away games and scored six goals. They sit in a playoff position and control their own fate with two games remaining. Juan Luis Anangono is heating up. Mike Magee is so hot he's scoring goals by accident. Sean Johnson is playing like, and being recognized as, one of the four or five best American goalies. Jeff Larentowicz is owning midfields. Jalil Anibaba and Austin Berry are two of only three MLS players who've played every single minute so far this season and their defensive relationship is finally solidifying. There's real depth on the outside and through the middle (where captain Logan Pause and summer standout Daniel Paladini are working to get past Alex and Arevalo Rios).
That's the general view right now. The squad is playing up to their potential and the depth is supporting them. The competition for spots is pushing everyone harder, and the depth is allowing Frank Klopas to cover for injuries, international duty (Rios, Lindpere), or to go with the hotter player (Anangono over Chris Rolfe).
In other words, things are shaping up nicely. The general feeling is a good one, momentum is building, the Twitter trolls have returned to their caves, and it's hard to fend off enticing thoughts like, you know those lower-seeded teams that barrel into the playoffs and scare everyone because they're playing with momentum and confidence? What if the Fire can be that team?
All season long, the Fire's major problem was consistency. They were infuriatingly inconsistent from game to game and, indeed, from half to half. Maybe it was a focus thing, maybe it was a changing personnel thing, who knows. But now the Fire are managing games better. They're attacking straight from the beginning. They're pressuring the ball all over the field. They're getting crucial two-goal advantages and defending well enough to hold on to them.
We saw all that last week in D.C., where a super high defensive line pushed the Fire team way up the field to pressure United players into mistakes that led to chances and goals. We saw the same thing in Dallas on Saturday night. Alex, especially, was way up the field in the first half, never letting the Dallas players play the ball comfortable in their own half. (Magee, Anangono, Patrick Nyarko, and Dilly Duka deserve credit too.) How many shots did the Fire have at the top of the Dallas box in the first 30 minutes? It was harassment.
So just like in DC, a high defensive line and concentrated pressure led to a 2-0 first half lead. But just like in DC, we saw where it could be dangerous. We saw the team pay the price of so much early pressure, with Nyarko tweaking a hamstring and the rest of the team almost running out of gas late in the second half. We also saw how pushing too eagerly can be scary:
But I like this high pressure because it fits the moment, with the Fire desperately needing these results to make the playoffs. There are just two games left and the Fire have to prove their potentially newfound consistency beyond the past two away wins. They have to show the urgency and the commitment and the work rate into the next two games, too. Klopas's high risk and high pressure tactic fits.
It's a great moment: After all the work and all the struggle, suddenly the players' quality shines through. Suddenly everybody trusts each other. Goals and points happen. Anibaba scores a stunner. Other teams hit the posts.
I don't know about predicting anything against Toronto and New York. But if we keep seeing the Fire play as they have these past two games, they'll get to play a few more.
Bet you didn't see that title coming two weeks ago did you?
While much of MLS sat idle this weekend, teams in the thick of the Eastern Conference playoff race nearly played a full slate with perhaps the Fire coming away as the biggest winners from the weekend's results.
A look at where the race stands heading into the final two weeks of the season...
x - 1) New York Red Bulls
Current Points: 53 (15-9-8)
Games Remaining: 2 (1 home / 1 away)
Last 5 Games: DDWWW (11pts)
2013 Home/Away Record: 10-2-4 / 5-7-4
Maximum Possible Pts: 59
Average Opponents Pts: 47.0
Remaining Schedule: 10/20 @ HOU, 10/27 vs. CHI
Rundown: New York sat idle this weekend, letting the rest of the Eastern Conference catch up to them on games played. Already qualified for the playoffs, Red Bull will be watching the Cascadia clash between Seattle and Portland closely Sunday night as it will have significant implications on the Supporters Shield race.
Red Bull will certainly be in the mix for their first true silverware the last two weeks of the season but with so many teams still in contention for the hardware, Fire fans shouldn't expect New York to put out a weaker lineup on the last day of the season.
A win this week vs. Houston would at the very least lock up a top two finish in the East for New York while a loss would make things very interesting…
x - 2) Sporting KC
Current Points: 52 (15-10-7)
Games Remaining: 2 (1 home / 1 away)
Last 5: DWLWW (10pts)
2013 Home/Away Record: 8-5-3 / 7-5-4
Maximum Possible Pts: 58
Average Opponents Pts: 31
Remaining Schedule: 10/18 vs. D.C., 10/23 vs. OLI**, 10/26 @ PHI
Rundown: Sporting KC could have controlled their own destiny for the top spot in the East if they would have won out but Wednesday's draw at Houston means they've relinquished that opportunity to New York.
Still, Sporting welcomes D.C. United this weekend and will no doubt be in the equation for both that top spot and potentially the Supporters Shield race on the final day of the season.
By virtue of the draw between Philadelphia and D.C. United Saturday, they also locked down a playoff berth. A win Saturday vs. D.C. and Sporting will lock in a top two finish in the East.
3) Houston Dynamo
Current Points: 48 (13-10-9)
Games Remaining: 1 (1 home / 1 away)
Last 5 Games: DWWWL (10pts)
2013 Home/Away Record: 9-3-4 / 4-6-4
Maximum Possible Points: 56
Average Opponents Pts: 34.5
Remaining Schedule: 10/20 vs. NY, 10/24 @ AU**, 10/27 @ D.C.
Rundown: The midweek draw vs. Sporting KC cooled off the Dynamo's hot streak just a bit, leaving them exposed to a potential drop in the standings at the weekend. Fortunately for Houston, Montreal fell to New England and the Dynamo are still in with a small chance for a top of the East finish.
With three games in eight days to end the season, the Dynamo have a huge week ahead of them beginning Saturday vs. New York.
How the qualify this week: A win over New York combined with a Philadelphia loss or draw to Montreal or a win over New York combined with a Philadelphia draw/win and a Chicago loss or draw to Toronto FC.
4) Montreal Impact
Current Points: 46 (13-11-7)
Games Remaining: 3 (1 home/ 2 away)
Last 5 Games: LLDLL (1pts)
2013 Home/Away Record: 9-4-3 / 4-7-4
Maximum Possible Pts: 56
Average Opponents Pts: 39
Remaining Schedule: 10/16 @ LA, 10/19 vs. PHI, 10/26 @ TFC
Rundown: Oh how the mighty have fallen. Long holders of the Eastern Conference top spot the first half of the season, Montreal are now winless in their last five following Saturday's 1-0 defeat to New England.
Montreal still hold a game in hand over the rest of the East but make that up with a tough midweek match Wednesday at LA. In that game the Impact will be down two starters in Matteo Ferrari and Davy Arnaud due to yellow card accumulation while Landon Donovan returns to the Galaxy from U.S. Men's National Team duty.
A loss in that match and Montreal will officially be in the dog fight for one of the knockout playoff spots and will have to recover quickly as they'll host fellow contender Philadelphia three days later.
How they qualify this week: Two wins vs. LA and Philadelphia is the simplest way but a combined four points with the win coming against Philadelphia along with either a New England loss/draw to Columbus or a Fire loss to Toronto FC.
5) Chicago Fire
Current Points: 46 (13-12-7)
Games Remaining: 2 (1 home / 1 away)
Last 5 Games: WWDLW (10pts)
2013 Home / Away Record: 9-4-3 / 4-7-4
Maximum Possible Pts: 52
Average Opponents Pts: 39.5
Remaining Schedule: 10/19 vs. TFC, 10/27 @ NY
Rundown: Following the disappointing 2-2 draw to Montreal on September 28, naysayers said the Fire should give up on the season and "play the kids" with only home game remaining out of their final four.
Two weeks later, they've won two straight MLS games for the first time since early July and both of them came on the road. Naysayers…
Now above the red line and tied on points with Montreal (and Philadelphia), the Fire are actually in a position where they could clinch a playoff berth this weekend and still have the possibility to finish in the East's top three spots, something that would have been unthinkable back in mid-May.
With two games left, the Fire control their own playoff destiny and after two confidence boosting victories, have a very winnable game in Saturday's home finale vs. Toronto FC.
How they qualify this week: A Chicago win over Toronto FC combined with a Philadelphia loss vs. Montreal and a New England loss or draw vs. Columbus.
With the Chicago and Philadelphia even on points, how would this work you ask? If the Fire won and Union lost, couldn't they still catch the Fire on points? Yes, but they would only tie Chicago and the Fire would already have a two-game edge in the first tie breaker which is total wins.
With both Montreal/Philadelphia and New England/Columbus ending before the Fire/TFC game, Saturday could be a very special night at Toyota Park. Get your tickets!
6) Philadelphia Union
Current Points: 46 (12-10-10)
Games Remaining: 2 (1 home / 1 away)
Last 5 Games: DWWLL (7pts)
2013 Home/Away Record: 7-4-5 / 5-6-5
Maximum Possible Points: 52
Average Opponents Pts: 49
Remaining Schedule: 10/19 @ MTL, 10/26 vs. SKC
Rundown: For two weeks in a row, Philadelphia have needed a very late goal to stay in the hunt for a playoff spot. On Saturday though Jack McInerney's strike was only good enough to equalize with lowly D.C. United, meaning the Union missed out on a huge opportunity to gain crucial points ahead of what will be two tough matches at Montreal and vs. Sporting KC to end the season.
How they qualify this week: Even if Philadelphia beats Montreal (and the Impact have lost to LA at midweek) and the Fire and Revolution both lose to Toronto and Columbus respectively, Philly would still need to get a point in the final week against Sporting KC.
7) New England Revolution
Current Points: 45 (12-11-9)
Games Remaining: 2 (1 home / 1 away)
Last 5 Games: WDDWL (8pts)
2013 Home/Away Record: 7-5-4 / 5-7-4
Maximum Possible Points: 51
Average Opponents Pts: 41
Remaining Schedule: 10/19 vs. CLB, 10/27 @ CLB
Rundown: New England bounced back well from a disappointing 2-2 draw last week at New York, earning a valuable 1-0 away win in Montreal but still find themselves in a difficult spot after the Fire win in Dallas and Philly's last gasp draw in D.C.
An odd home-and-home series with Columbus (who are now all but out of the playoff race) will help determine their playoff fate but even if they win both matches to close the season, they'll need help in the form of two teams above them dropping points. With Montreal, Chicago and Philadelphia all just one point ahead and the Impact and Union facing each other this week, New England still has plenty to play for.
8) Columbus Crew
Current Points: 41 (12-15-5)
Games Remaining: 2 (1 home / 1 away)
Last 5 Games: LWWWL (9pts)
2013 Home / Away Record: 7-6-3 / 5-9-2
Maximum Possible Points: 47
Average Opponents Pts: 42
Remaining Schedule: 10/19 @ NE, 10/27 vs. NE
Rundown: The Revolution and Fire wins as well as the Union draw pretty much put to bed the Crew's hopes for the postseason. It's not that they're mathematically out, it's just that it's damn near improbable that all the results that would need to go Columbus' way would.
It's not even worth getting into with two weeks left but if they can play a little spoiler and win at New England this weekend and are still in the hunt on the final day, I'll explain it next week.

After getting the job done in DC last Friday night, the Fire head south to take on a FC Dallas side needing a miracle to make the MLS Cup playoffs Saturday night (7pm CT My50/TWC Wisconsin). Dallas are in free fall and despite the Fire's record in Texas, the Men in Red should be settling for nothing less than three points. Here are some things to keep an eye on from a tactical perspective.
Perez away on Panama duty
Blas Perez has all the characteristics of an elite CONCACAF striker: finishing ability, gamesmanship and non-stop focus; similar to Carlos Ruiz. So perhaps it's a good thing that the Dallas's leading goal scorer is away for Panama's crucial World Cup qualifying match with Mexico this weekend.
Perez has 11 goals on the year, with his closest teammate being Kenny Cooper at four. In Perez's absence, it's hard to see Dallas switching way from their lone striker formation and Cooper would seem the likely candidate to slot in after ending his nearly five-month goal scoring drought last weekend vs. RSL.
Cooper is a powerful forward that has historically done well against the Fire, tallying six goals in 12 career matches. With a goal last weekend under his belt and Dallas fighting for their playoff lives, he won't be one to take lightly.
Focusing on Jackson – the Brazilian is instrumental in the Hoops' attack
Jackson has impressed me in Dallas's most recent matches against Columbus and RSL. He normally operates on the right wing, trying to get the ball inside to Perez or a midfield runner. In the last match against RSL, Jackson drifted inside more often.
This was in part due to the fact that RSL had a man sent off early after a disgraceful tackle on the Brazilian. He also showed that he can be a threat in the box, forcing Nick Rimando into a brilliant 1v1 save after an attempted flick over the keeper with the outside of his foot.
In last week's match against DC, the Fire played a very open style of play in the first half, attacking in numbers. If you only looked at the score line, you would think that this tactic was a success but it could've been a lot different if it wasn't for Sean Johnson. He bailed his team out with some brilliant saves after DC caught the Fire out with too many players forward.
It is understandable that the Fire will play in a similar fashion against Dallas due to the need for three points but allowing a player like Jackson time and space on a counter attack can be very dangerous.
Singling out Kellyn Acosta – targeting the Homegrown wingback
In their most recent home loss to Columbus, FC Dallas were exposed on the wings, most notably on the left where Dominic Oduro torched Zach Loyd. On the right, FC Dallas Homegrown player Kellyn Acosta also looked vulnerable. His distribution out of the back was poor; with the 18-year-old trying to play one-touch passes too often.
Columbus clearly targeted Acosta, with players such as Federico Higuain running at the defender whenever possible. A tactic that I would like to see on Saturday night is a constant switching of the Fire wide players so that Acosta is never comfortable.
If Fire wingers Nyarko, Duka, Alex and Co. can get into 1v1 or 2v1 situations with Acosta, it could pay dividends for the Men in Red.
Prediction: The Fire won't play as open as last weekend but score early and late. 2-0 Fire with goals from Magee and Alex

SAPELO ISLAND, Ga. -- An island community feels its way of life is under attack.
On Sapelo Island in Georgia, the Gullah Geechees feel they are being pushed out.
"These places are precious to us and we don't want to lose it," said Cornelia Bailey, one of 45 full-time residents on Georgia's Sapelo Island, a barrier island nestled just above St. Simons.
The people are part of the Hog Hammock Gullah-Geechee community. They are descendants of slaves who worked on the island's plantation. The Geechees still live on the island that generations of family inhabited.
"It's a lot of passed down history and culture and so," Bailey said.
The Geechees live off the land. The island's natural resources are plentiful for the hunters and gathers: fish, oysters, clams, wild animals, and many plants.
The Hog Hammock community has two churches, one restaurant and a small store.
Some of the Geechee descendants live and work on the mainland now. Children take the ferry to school every morning, and many who live on the island keep a car on the mainland at the dock.
Bailey said those who live off the island still stay close to their family.
"They come over here and gather their life everlasting tea," Bailey explained. "They come over here and gather oysters and clams and go fishing because they're right down the road, they're right in Savannah or Brunswick or Jacksonville."
Bailey said although she and other Sapelo Island residents pay county taxes, they don't receive the same benefits as those on the mainland. For instance, she said although they pay for garbage pickup, there is none; they still haul their trash to the island's dumpsters.
"We're paying taxes. We don't get garbage services, we don't get road services, we don't get sewage services, we don't get road services," Bailey said. "We don't get any of the services that if most places if they lived there, they're responsible for some of those services and we don't get any of those services."
She and many of the residents experienced a hike in taxes over the past year.
"If your taxes have gone from $200 last year to over $2,000 to $3,000 this year, that's a big jump," Bailey said.
So much that many feel their way of life is being threatened.
"We're going to preserve and keep Hog Hammock at all costs," Bailey said.
Much of the island way has already been lost. There were originally five communities. There is now just one. Only 45 full time residents remain.
But "outsiders", as Bailey called them, are discovering the island. Some have purchased land and built homes.
Bailey is afraid if the Geechees can't afford the new taxes, they'll be forced out, creating more land available for purchase.
The Geechees are fighting for their culture. To live naturally, making tea from wild persimmon and jump ropes from cat briar vines. To keep it the way it's been for decades.
"We don't want to go someplace where there's such restriction on things that we can't do it or we can't enjoy the things we enjoy here," Bailey said. "That traditionally, we have enjoyed since my people have enjoyed, since even when they were slaves they were able to fish and hunt and gather and so that's the way it was supposed to be."
First Coast News tried to contact the county to find out why the taxes were increased on Sapelo Island. We have not heard back and will continue to attempt to contact those officials.

Ports Initiative
EPA partners with stakeholders to create more sustainable ports.
More about the Ports Initiative
Ports play a significant role in the goods movement supply chain. Many ports are located in areas that do not meet EPA air quality standards for criteria pollutants and/or border on environmental justice communities. Ships and harbor craft are the largest contributors of diesel pollution at ports. In addition to air quality, water quality may also be a concern for ports.
Reducing exposure to diesel exhaust in and around ports is important for public health and the environment. Diesel engines last 20 to 30 years, but EPA regulations apply only to new diesel engines. Fortunately, there are a variety of strategies, including idle reduction for reducing emissions from older engines.
In addition, EPA offers funding for diesel emission reduction programs. In January 2011, President Obama signed legislation reauthorizing DERA funding to eligible entities for projects that reduce emissions from existing diesel engines. Appropriations are determined by Congress on an annual basis.
Port Authorities, Terminal Operators and Fleet Owners, Drayage Truckers, and Rail and Locomotive Operators all have a role in helping to reduce diesel emissions at the ports where they work and in nearby communities. Information about environmental management systems, port-related emission inventories, reducing emissions at ports and more is available on the Publications page.

A Clockwork Orange (Norton Critical Editions)by Anthony Burgess
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A terrifying tale about good and evil and the meaning of human freedom, became an instant classic when it was published in 1962 and has remained so ever since. Anthony Burgess takes us on a journey to a nightmarish future where sociopathic criminals rule the night. Brilliantly told in harsh invented slang by the novel's main character and merciless droog, fifteen-year-old Alex, this influential novel is now available in a student edition. The Norton Critical Edition of is based on the first British edition and includes Burgess's original final chapter. It is accompanied by Mark Rawlinson's preface, explanatory annotations, and textual notes. A glossary of the Russian-origin terms that inspired Alex's dialect is provided to illustrate the process by which Burgess arrived at the distinctive style of this novel. "Backgrounds and Contexts" presents a wealth of materials chosen by the editor to enrich the reader's understanding of this unforgettable work, many of them by Burgess himself. Burgess's views on writing , its philosophical issues, and the debates over the British edition versus the American edition and the novel versus the film adaptation are all included. Related writings that speak to some of the novel's central issues--youthful style, behavior modification, and art versus morality--are provided by Paul Rock and Stanley Cohen, B. F. Skinner, John R. Platt, Joost A. M. Meerloo, William Sargent, and George Steiner. "Criticism" is divided into two sections, one addressing the novel and the other Stanley Kubrick's film version. Five major reviews of the novel are reprinted along with a wide range of scholarly commentary, including, among others, David Lodge on the American reader; Julie Carson on linguistic invention; Zinovy Zinik on Burgess and the Russian language; Geoffrey Sharpless on education, masculinity, and violence; Shirley Chew on circularity; Patrick Parrinder on dystopias; Robbie B. H. Goh on language and social control; and Steven M. Cahn on freedom. A thorough analysis of the film adaptation of is provided in reviews by Vincent Canby, Pauline Kael, and Christopher Ricks; in Philip Strick and Penelope Houston's interview with Stanley Kubrick; and in interpretive essays by Don Daniels, Alexander Walker, Philip French, Thomas Elsaesser, Tom Dewe Mathews, and Julian Petley. A Selected Bibliography is also included.
Book News Annotation:
Edited by Rawlinson (literature, U. of Leicester, UK), this volume continues Norton's practice of including the original 21st chapter in North American editions of Burgess' A Clockwork Orange. The text of the novel precedes a section offering context-providing material by Burgess, along with commentaries from individuals including B.F. Skinner and George Steiner. Sections in a third part of the edition present reviews and scholarly analyses of both Burgess' novel and Kubrick's film. A glossary of "nadsat" terms, a chronology of Burgess' life, and a selected bibliography, are also provided. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
"A brilliant novel . . . a savage satire on the distortions of the single and collective minds." — "Anthony Burgess has written what looks like a nasty little shocker, but is really that rare thing in English letters: a philosophical novel." --

As a traveler, I enjoy meeting new people. I see it as a part of the big adventure. The prospect of spending a night with strangers offers an opportunity to learn something new about the place I'm visiting and, of course, the people that makes a certain culture and society rich with alien energy and unfamiliar praxis. A wide range of personalities composed the group: from a free-spirited librarian to a digital marketing consultant, throw in an engineer, too. The strange mix naturally gave way to varying conversation topics all to satiate an interesting social experiment, thanks to Katie for hosting and my sister for inviting me.
I don't get to share most of the outfits I wear to my night outs. Major reason is because I'm usually in a hurry to rush out the door, hence, forgetting to take a snap. That's one of the reasons why I sometimes would share outfit posts using photos taken with Hipstamatic or Instagram. However, since I had a few minutes to spare while I was re-charging my phone's battery. It's actually important that I do that since I wouldn't want my phone's batt run out on me while I'm out on my own (my sister had to go home ahead of me since she's traveling to Sri Lanka for a business trip the next day).
Deciding on an outfit with mixed neutrals was sort of accidental. I simply wanted to wear this adorable Grey panel pencil high-waisted mini. I actually found in Kmart while on a different errand (having some photos printed out). As soon as I saw it, I was reminded of wanting to get one since, I don't know, forever? It's the stretch kind so it fits me like a glove, which I love! It didn't hurt that it only costs AUD$ 15.00 (roughly around Php 672.00). Maybe, like the kimono tee from Sportsgirl, I should've gotten it in a different colour as well, haha.
Anyway, anticipating a temp drop plus knowing I'll be catching the train on my way back, I borrowed a black trench coat from my sister. It's at a perfect length which was quite handy in concealing my party clothes, too.

On top of meeting new folks, another new thing that I got to experience that night was having dinner at a Go-in Hotpot Train on Hindley Street (after cocktails at Amber Lounge). The Pork Rib Soup wasn't stellar, mind you, but the novelty of the whole thing was a treat nonetheless. It kind of reminds me of Shabu-Shabu dinners back in Manila (now that's way better, of course) and made me miss my Ramen. (Dear P, let's go on a Ramen trip when I get back, please? Love, S). After dinner, I had my Stella at one of my favourite spots in town, the Belgian Cafe, before dashing off to catch the last train out the city.
What about you? What sort of adventure have you gotten yourself into lately?

The short October/November and March/April rainy seasons notwithstanding, the Serengeti's temperate and mostly dry climate plus abundant resident wildlife makes for a great game viewing experience all year round - the question of exactly when to go to the Serengeti really revolves around whether you want to see the wildebeest migration.
If so, then the best time to visit the Serengeti is between October and July before the wildebeest return to Kenya's Masai Mara around August. Note however that the migration is a fluid affair: not only is its precise timing subject to each year's rainfall pattern but the herds move around the Serengeti depending on the time of year.
Ensure you're in the right place at the right time: use our detailed climate guide below or contact one of our African Safari Experts to help you plan when to go on a Serengeti safari for maximum reward.

It was brought to my attention by Mr. and Mrs. Steven Tanner and I also witnessed myself several weekends ago, that members of the local stock car racing association rolled up their sleeves and cleaned up the sides of the road of the Carbon County Airport Road. I also understand they do a clean up each weekend that stock car racing takes place and do it because they want to make a good impression to those visiting the area and for those attending the ever popular event of stock car racing.
I would like you to bring to the attention of those doing this work that we have noticed and that others in the community have seen these efforts as well.
I know that the races bring many people to the area by offering a quality facility and event and by the extensive promotion that they do to bring spectators and participants to our area of Castle Country.
Their efforts to clean up the road as well is just another demonstration of what community spirit can do.

I'm interested in learning how to play the guitar, but can't figure out whether to start with a regular guitar or a lefty one, because I'm left-handed. I've been learning to play the piano for a little less than a year, and would really like to be able to play with a regular guitar, not having to carry mine around. Should I learn as a right-handed person or maybe play with the guitar upside down? All my experience with music learning dates to a little less than a year, but I'm familiar with a couple of theoretical concepts as well so figuring things out should be a little easier with the piano to back me up.
If your main aim is to be able to play a regular guitar wherever you go, I would suggest learning regular, but as a pianist I would imagine you could learn either way.
Various famous guitar players learnt the 'wrong' way so it shouldn't stop you, and it will make understanding tablature simpler.
I've been playing for 20 years, am left handed, and learned right-handed. In my opinion, this made it easier for me to learn, as my dominant hand was doing the "more complicated" stuff for a long time. The strumming is largely simple motions unless you're looking at playing really sweet fingerstyle (which you shouldn't have a problem with anyhoe if you're picking up piano).
The other major benefit to learning right-handed is that it'll be way easier to play guitars that other people have.
I would definitely recommend learning left-handed. I initially began playing musical instruments (violin) at an extremely early age, before I or my parents knew I was left-handed. The teacher said "get a right-handed violin because left-handed violins are rare and typically far more expensive". I learned how to play righty, but I was always behind my peers which was frustrating but, in hindsight, was the result of having a more difficult time learning. I still play right-handed, and learned guitar right-handed, and overcame the obstacle, but, in my eyes, any way to remove obstacles in learning a new (and often frustrating) instrument further ensure your maintained level of interest and enjoyment.
Of course, the best answer is to learn both hands...
My older brother who is left handed learned left handed guitar. I would suggest that you do the same. Do not allow us right handed folks to corrupt you and make you think that you must adapt to our right handed ways! Embrace the left hand and get a left handed guitar.
I'm left-handed but I've played guitar right-handed for decades, reaching a rather competent level in classical guitar before I quit at my 20s because I got bored with classical guitar repertoire.
If holding your guitar left-handed feels more natural, go with leftie, whatever the cost. For a beginner a fretting hand might feel having a more demanding job but actually the plucking/picking hand is more important. Yes, even if you like to play slurs and legatos.
That's because you'll always have a better command on your dominant hand. This affects the rhythm and precision, the things that in the end make your playing sound good or bad.
I'm personally learning electric guitar and occasionally thinking about learning to play it left-handed. Especially because I still tend to strum air guitar like a southpaw.

POTSDAM The busy Main Street crosswalk in front of the Roxy Theater again became a cause for concern during Mondays village Board of Trustees meeting.
The crosswalk is on a busy stretch and is frequently used by pedestrians trying to get to and from the large municipal parking lot across from the theater. Walkers complain frequently that drivers do not slow down or stop for them, Trustee Eleanor F. Hopke said.
She suggested installing brighter lights near the crosswalk to improve visibility.
Especially in the winter when were wearing black jackets, its hard to see, she said.
Mayor Steven W. Yurgartis said National Grid installed the existing lights, and he could contact the utility to ask if improving the lighting is possible.
However, low visibility plays a small role in the crosswalks dangerous reputation, he said.
Thats a crosswalk that frequently has problems in the middle of the day in bright light, he said.
Any changes to the road itself, such as the addition of signs or flashing lights, are almost out of the question, according to village Administrator David H. Fenton. Main Street is U.S. Route 11, and the state Department of Transportation is unlikely to approve any changes unless all other options have failed, including increased enforcement, Mr. Fenton said.
The DOT is very hesitant to make changes to the actual highway until several things happen, he said.
In 2012, police responded to complaints by cracking down on drivers who failed to stop for pedestrians. The area is still frequently patrolled, and tickets are regularly handed out to those who ignore the rules, but the complaints keep coming in, said police Chief Kevin M. Bates.

NEW YORK (AP) - The NHL has rejected the players' latest offer for a labor deal, and negotiations have broken off at least until the weekend.
Donald Fehr made two separate appearances Thursday night in front of a large throng of reporters just moments apart after talks with the league ended. Initially, Fehr said he believed the sides had agreements on some key issues, but he returned soon after to say NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly left a voicemail saying that the players' offer wasn't good enough.
The voicemail, left for union special counsel Steve Fehr, stated that "some things or everything" the league has offered is now off the table, according to Donald Fehr, who added that this is not a positive development.
2 on Your Side's Adam Benigni contacted Buffalo Sabres goaltender Ryan Miller about the latest rejection.
Miller replied, "Too bad. The league will make it seem like nothing was accomplished, but we got closer to a deal. If they blow it up, I guess we have to find another way. We worked hard and moved in a fashion that would indicate that they could move and get a deal done. They just want surrender on all issues."
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman was expected to speak later Thursday, the 82nd day of the lockout. Bettman was not part of the one-hour meeting earlier in the day.

You've got a problem, maybe.
We made a new sketchbook. This is the introduction contained therein:
"In our ranks are mountain bikers, BMX racers, anti-establishment commuters, 'cross racers, e-bike enthusiasts and all the bike types and places in-between. Sometimes, we have a hard time defining who our audience is. Like many of our childhoods, we just don't fit into any one group.
So who are you?
Perhaps you were the one kid in the neighborhood that knew how to get anyone's department store bike back up and running with nothing more than an adjustable wrench and a blunt object. Maybe you're still that kid, just all grown up and holding better tools.
Or you've done this all before. Bike shop Service Department veteran, some might say LEGEND. You fear nothing – can't be told no. You know who Frank Berto is, and have poked some holes in Sheldon Brown's theories. You know how things are done, and how to do them right—the first time. The UBI should give you some sort of certificate, gratis, 'cause you're so pro.
Maybe you're a total parts geek and you want your bike any way but "standard." Of course you have a bunch of unreal parts around, just waiting like Excalibur in the stone. That sweet Dura-Ace Aero single bolt stem is going to fit that top tube length perfectly because you have YOUR geometry committed to memory like a Social Security number. That 26.0 Zeus 2000 seatpost isn't going to fit in the 27.2 frame, but you know where you can find shims. You've got to find the perfect cable hanger to put on your headset so you can run those new-in-the-box Onza H.O. canti brakes. You've got an XC Pro front thumbie and a 600 "Arabesque" traditional road front derailleur, so even though the frame has top tube cable routing, you can use a clamp & pulley to get that working. With that cassette body in its current state, there's no way you can slide a full 7-speed cassette on there, so with a splined cog and some spacers you make it a two-speed since you also have a sick NOS Avocet road crank in a double. Guess who's got the most unique bike in Springfield now? Nice work, pal.
If you've picked up this little sketchbook, you likely fall somewhere in between, on a think we like to call the DIY Spectrum. You might be at the point where you fix flats and keep your drivetrain lubed, or you might be taking a break from welding a few tubes together that'll become your next frame. Once you get a taste for getting it done, there's no going back. It feels so good to resurrect an old bike, or to make an impossible setup work well. This impulse to problem solve translates to a lot of things we're sure, and maybe it's just our bias, but there's something personally satisfying about building, maintaining and fixing your own bike.
We decided to make this sketchbook because we've gone through piles of them ourselves, and writing things down is important. Whether it's to sketch out new ideas, record your findings, workarounds, geometries, spoke lengths, never-try-it-agains…or just to doodle during that boring meeting at work. Whatever the reason, you'll be glad you put pen to paper."

Looks from Jonathan Simkhai's spring/summer 2014 collection.
Photo: Courtesy Jonathan Simkhai
We don't mean to pick favorites, but we love Jonathan Simkhai. The New York-based designer is relatively fresh to the New York Fashion Week scene (his first show was in 2010!), but he's already won over buyers at Barneys, Shopbop and Bergdorf Goodman, just to name a few. His sporty-meets-edgy-meets-feminine pieces are a fresh take on super cool work wear (or, heck, any kind of wear!), and we're obsessed with his graphically bold designs. His spring/summer 2014 collection features everything from breezy palazzo pants to sultry cut-out crop tops to super mod frocks, and we NEEDED to find out more about this visually-inspiring line. Luckily, we got a chance to catch up with Jonathan himself to tell us about his collection inspiration, live presentation music, and the type of girl he designs for. Check it out below!

Comments about Five Ten Hornet Climbing Shoe (Men's):
When I first tried the hornet I realised this truly superior air-tight fit.The asymmetrical lacing system works very well but it takes long time to put them on and off so I don't recommend it for long trainings or bouldernig sessions. I always use the hornet on comps and to execute my projects. The laces and the design of the toe is excellent for toe hooks too. The heelcup is simply perfect and the other thing I love about these shoes is the synthetic Cowdura upper. It makes the hornet really lightweight, minimizes the break-in period and looks very cool too with it's beautiful green color.
The hornet is the best shoe I've ever had for overhangs and steep problems due to it's sensitive and very aggressive construction but for edging on vertical climbs I found the rubber too thin.
Comments about Five Ten Hornet Climbing Shoe (Men's):
These shoes are awesome. I've owned Dragons for a while, and these seem like a better fitting, thinner version of the dragons. They don't have as much toe rubber for toe hooking, but they can still toe hook just fine.
Comments about Five Ten Hornet Climbing Shoe (Men's):
I have climbed in the Dragons for a while now, and saw these on sale so I got a pair. They are awesome. They size the same as the Dragons, and I think they fit even better (right out the the box there was no break-in period required). I have really wide feet and the asymmetrical lacing makes it really easy for these to fit me like a glove. My dragons needed a break-in period, but these didn't at all. I recommended these to some strong friends and they love them for the exact same reasons.
They are also remarkably thin and sensitive, and are very aggressive. I haven't climbed in them long enough to comment on the durability of the thinner sole, but I really like the sensitivity. Also, the heel seems to fit better in these than in the Dragons. For outdoor climbing, I still prefer my Dragons, but for the gym (up to 5.13s) I love these guys.

Warriors' Martial Arts
Testimonials to our program
Since my son billy joined the Art Masons Peaceful Warriors, I've seen such a change in him. you guys are great role models for billy. With his disabilities, against all odds.. His karate builds his confidence to help make him assertive and he's inquisitive to learn & achieve high B, to high A average in school.
He's earned the respect of his teachers. And they are proud to have him as a student. It's too bad I can't express that to every parent considering martial arts for their child.
Thankyou just doesn't seem to be enough for all you do and your dedication you show to all your students.
Kara Borshuk
"Special Thanks,
I am the mother of a boy, who after many diagnosis from several different doctors, was told my son has a number of behavioral disorders. As heartbreaking as that was to hear and deal with I was so relieved to finally find a place where my son was welcomed and not judged for his disability, but encouraged to thrive beyond expectations.
We tried everything from Cubs, Tee-ball, to city soccer league. While all of them were friendly and tried to work with my son, not one could keep his interest for any period of time. He would loose interest and walk off to do his own thing. He had no focus or ambition for anything he tried.
Then while searching the webs for something to help my son, I came across a website for The Peaceful Warriors'. The name alone made me feel comfort. I set up a meeting with Master Art and his son Master Curt. After talking to them and explaining my son's disorders, Master Art assured me that they were not worried about dealing with my sons unusual behaviors and with a very respectful confidence, he assured me my son would excel in his karate school.
I has been two and a half years since my son joined The Peaceful Warrior's school. He will soon become a Red Belt, is in the Black Belt Club, and on the Demo Team, by his own choice.
In less then three years at this school, my son has grown into a calmer, happier more pleasant person to be around. I believe that this school is more then that, they truly want to see children reach their full potential. They have made such a difference in our lives, they believe it takes a village to raise a healthy well rounded child, and they show it in many ways. The Peaceful Warriors' are always in touch with parents on the progress or need improvements of each child. They even ask for input from the child's grade or high school teachers, before they can advance to another belt.
Please believe me when I say that I tried everything to find positive outlets for my son's Hyperactive behavior and until I found The Peaceful Warriors' family, I though it was hopeless for my son to ever fit in anywhere.
So in closing, I give my most sincere thanks to the many Masters, instructors and people involved in The Peaceful Warriors' family. You all truly have made a positive difference in my family's lives..."

Las Vegas, September 22, 2009 – Opening the door to a new era of advanced image quality, workflow simplicity and efficiency in the workplace, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital document imaging, today launched the imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series, a new document service platform that blends hardware, software and services to help advance modern business environments.
Building upon the Company's long heritage of its award-winning imageRUNNER product line, the new imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series will help seamlessly bridge the distance between user and multifunction printer (MFP) to transform and advance one's business and digital communications. Incorporating sophisticated workflows and innovative technologies, the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series is designed to address the ever-growing needs of users, administrators and business decision makers to better manage and customize workflows, while accomplishing more tasks in less time and achieving higher levels of quality.
The new Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series will include:
"Over the years, Canon has developed and delivered several monumental technology innovations and solutions to respond to customers' needs and change the marketplace, including the transition to digital with its GP product line in the early 1990s and the introduction of the current imageRUNNER product line in 1999," said Sam Yoshida, vice president and general manager, Imaging Systems Group, Canon U.S.A
"The new imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series is a game-changer that will exceed customers' expectations. These new solutions will help increase the productivity of 'knowledge workers' through greater efficiency and simplified workflow, while producing consistent high-quality color and black-and-white output in office and light production environments," adds Yoshida.
Its new sleek, compact and natural color design, combined with its advanced innovations, allows the imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series to fit harmoniously into nearly any work environment. These models have been redesigned from the inside out with the user in mind, starting with its brand new system architecture. Built upon a new Advanced imageCHIP system architecture, these models leverage two central processing units separating image processing and information processing functions. These CPUs work together to accomplish multiple tasks simultaneously, and achieve exceptional performance, faster processing speeds, as well as deliver new features and functionality.
The new Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE series will also incorporate a Full Color SVGA TFT Control Panel (8.4-inch screen on the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5000 Series models and up to 10.4-inch screen on the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7000 and C9000 PRO Series models), with a customizable user interface to help define and simplify specific user workflows. The new large control panel also features a Main Menu key to easily access main functions and a Quick Menu key to help improve and simplify workflow, as well as share frequently used jobs or functions within a workgroup using one-touch buttons.
The new models are designed with robust and flexible paper handling capacities and finishing options, including staple and booklet finishing, and a wide range of media support through a variety of optional hardware accessories. The new imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9075 PRO and C9065 PRO, which have a paper capacity up to 9,300 sheets, and the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7065 and C7055, with a paper capacity up to 6,900 sheets, will support a variety of media, including coated and tab paper, in sizes up to 13 x 19 1/4 inches and with a weight up to 300 gsm (110 lb. Cover), while the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5051/C5045/C5035/C5030 will have a capacity up to 5,000 sheets, and support paper ranging from 14 lb. bond to 140 lb. index (52 to 256 gsm) and up to 12 x 18 inches.
The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series delivers superior and seamless workflow productivity and efficiency, thanks to a number of new functional capabilities including its innovative Advanced Box functionality and imageWARE ADVANCE Essentials Solutions Package.
The Advanced Box is a document sharing space built into the new models, providing enhanced document storage and advanced collaboration. With the ability to store documents in their native file formats and share Advanced Box documents across network connected models and personal computers, the Advanced Box delivers a new level of capability in document storage and collaboration.
imageRUNNER ADVANCE Essentials is an integrated software suite designed to enhance the end-user experience and interaction with imageRUNNER ADVANCE models. imageRUNNER ADVANCE Essentials, which includes imageRUNNER ADVANCE Desktop, imageRUNNER ADVANCE Tracker and Workflow Composer with connectors, will allow users to easily access the functions that simplify their work. Users can bring imageRUNNER ADVANCE functionality directly to their desktops for one-touch workflow key creation, document publishing and management, and basic document tracking and accounting.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE Essentials Package allows any size work environment to optimize the core functionality of the new Series and includes:
From easy set-up to centralized administration and security, the new imageRUNNER ADVANCE models deliver a combination of integrated hardware and software for scaling and managing document workflow. For example, administrators can use the improved Remote User Interface (RUI) on the imageRUNNER ADVANCE to monitor a single device on the network or imageWARE Enterprise Management Console to check the activity of an entire fleet. Enhanced security solutions, including Authentication, Data, Network and Document Security, are incorporated into the new models to protect sensitive and confidential documents, as well as the device's integrity.
With the imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series, Canon delivers a consistent and reliable platform that easily integrates into any environment to increase uptime and encourage seamless communication and collaboration. The new models, which will provide true 1,200 x 1,200 dots-per-inch (dpi) print resolution, will deliver exceptional image output quality, yielding smooth, vivid and well-defined images by virtue of the new system architecture and technologies. Also, the imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series will use a new oil-free "pQ" toner to produce sharp, vivid and dense images with a smooth finish, combined with new fusing technologies to improve color consistency and gloss optimization.
The new models will come standard with Ultra Fast Rendering II (UFRII) printing technology, as well as optional Adobe PostScript 3 and PCL 5c/6 capabilities. For color intensive users, there will be imagePASS and ColorPASS* print controller options available. In addition, these models will have a tighter collaboration with Adobe technologies, by offering the ability to print and scan into a variety of Adobe PDF formats, support for a wider variety of Adobe PDF formats, and integration with Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management Server ES to bring secure collaboration to PDF documents.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE models all support Canon's MEAP technology, allowing for greater integration with customized business processes and with leading third-party software applications. eCopy, the leading document imaging software provider, is announcing the availability of its ShareScan document imaging application with the imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series, giving customers instant connectivity to more than 100 of the most commonly used business applications. In addition, NT-Ware is announcing that uniFLOW Output Manager, an intelligent output management application, will run on the new imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform. Other third-party developers are expected to announce that their MEAP applications will support imageRUNNER ADVANCE models at the time of shipping or shortly thereafter.
Canon is committed to the environment and green technologies through every phase of the product lifecycle. With these new imageRUNNER ADVANCE models, Canon will have an even stronger environmental focus than in past products, including:
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE models are expected to be available for customer delivery in the fourth quarter of 2009 through Canon Authorized Dealers and Canon Business Solutions. The manufacturer's suggested retail prices will be:

NEWPORT–It is not uncommon to go up to a golfer and have them tell you that they have been playing golf for more than half of their life.
When I met up with Austin Giroux and asked him how long he had been playing, he said most of his life.
Here is the difference:
Austin is a ten years old.
He started golfing when he was three.
So, to say that Austin has been golfing for most of his life is a pretty darn accurate statement.
Austin has had quite the summer so far, and I made the trek up to the Newport Country Club to sit down and chat with Derby Elementary School fifth grader.
ORLEANS–The 3rd Annual Northeast Kingdom Junior Golf Tour swung into action on Thursday afternoon at the Orleans Country Club.
For the second year in a row, the day began with a one hour clinic that had OCC Club Pro Josh Olney and Newport Country Club Pro Kin O'Neil giving the kids instruction and helpful points on improving their golf technique.
NEWPORT-Basketball camp on a warm July week has become a tradition in the town of Newport.
What started out as the Lake Mephremaggog Basketball Camp forty-four years has ago has evolved into the Vermont Triple Threat Basketball Camp, and under the direction of of John Gunn, the program is as strong as ever.
Gunn, who started with program as a coach in the 1990's and has since moved on to be a director in the new millennium, explained the camp's mission when it comes to teaching the game of basketball.
NEWPORT–The OEC Lightning Junior Legion baseball team squared off against the Montreal Rockies in a non-league doubleheader on Sunday afternoon at North Country Union High School.
After dropping the first contest 11-7, the Lightning's bats came alive in game two, as they went on to earn the split, defeating the older Rockies 15-11.
WILLISTON–Former Jay Peak Club Pro and Current Stowe Mountain Club Assistant Pro Dave Jankowski teamed up with a trio of North Country high school golfers, Alex Giroux, Katie Goulet and Tyler Smith, to play at the Vermont PGA Pro-Junior Champions event at the Williston Country Club on June 30th.
The end result was an extremely satisfying one for the quartet, as they shot a 137, edging out teams from Vermont National and Country Club of Barre by one stroke to take home the Gross title.
BARTON-Three runs scored in the third inning was all of the offense the 12-U Cal Ripken District Championship baseball game would see, as Lake Region defeated their neighbors to the north, North Country, 3-0 to pick up the win and take home the hardware.
"I thought it was a really good effort and our pitching was outstanding," said LR coach Rick Hudson.
Said NC coach Mike LaCourse, "I thought it was a huge improvement from the last time we played them. Our boys really came around and started battling hard, but we just ran out of time."
For the full story, see the Express on 7-1-14.
BURLINGTON–The official conclusion to the 2013-2014 Vermont high school hockey season came on Saturday evening at the Make-A-Wish All-Star Game between the top seniors from Vermont and New Hampshire at UVM's historic Gutterson Field House.
The two games featured a total of five players from Orleans County.
Corrina Cota and Meghan Martin skated in the girl's game, and the trio of Ross DeLaBruere, Nate Marsh and Ryan Paul in the boy's.
It turned out to be a wonderful showing for our area athletes, as they tallied three goals and four assists between the five of them.
North Country golfer Katie Goulet competed in the New England Girls Golf Championship at the Bretwood Golf Course in Keene NH on Monday. She scored an 84 for the day, going 39 and 45. She reported she had a number of birdie opportunities, but had to settle for pars. The second nine provided her with more sand shots than she wanted. Over 60 girls representing six New England states competed for the title, which was won with a score of 72. Katie's score placed her in the top 20 players. Katie has had a great freshman year and looks forward to next season.
NEWPORT–Newport City and Derby squared off on Monday night for the Babe Ruth 12-U Softball League Championship in Gardner Park, and with a 5-run outpouring in the bottom of the 6th inning, Newport City was able to wake away with a 7-3 win and the championship trophy.
"The girls take three to four innings to get going, it has been an on-going thing all year, but they usually come out late in the game to prevail," said NC coach Eric Cotnoir.
MONTPELIER VT-- The OEC Kings won game one of their double header at Montpelier High School against Post #3 by a score of 12-0 in five innings.
Danville's Brett Elliott picked up the win, going four innings and allowing three hits. Saint Johnsbury's Chris Connolly pitched a scoreless fifth inning to close things out.
On offense for the Kings, Lyndon's Davis Guyer went 2 for 3 with a double and triple while driving in four runs. North Country's Wyatt Prue doubled, drove in two runs, and scored three times.

Latest on OF Market: Delmon Young will wait to sign until January
The Mariners have also checked in on Delmon Young (FOX Sports), but he is reportedly waiting to sign until January.
After agreeing to terms with Angel Pagan, the Giants are also looking at the possibility of signing Scott Hairston in a platoon role (Comcast Sportsnet).
The Red Sox are focused on signing Josh Hamilton (Boston Herald), and while the Brewers appear to have some interest in Hamilton (CBS Sports), the Phillies are "weary" of Hamilton (ESPN).
The Phillies and Rockies have had discussions about Dexter Fowler, and the Rockies want controllable pitching back from Philadelphia (FOX Sports).
The Yankees have shown interest in Hairston and Cody Ross (FOX Sports).
The Mariners have "checked in" on Ryan Ludwick, but are considering any offense they can find. (CBS Sports).
Grady Sizemore will miss a significant portion of the 2013 season after undergoing micro-fracture surgery (CBS Sports).
However, the Reds have a contract offer out to Ludwick, and manager Dusty Baker hopes he accepts it (Cincinnati Enquirer).
The Nationals are not actively shopping Michael Morse, but are listening to offers (Washington Times).
Michael Baron, ContributorIf the Mets still have a need in January, I wonder if the Mets would consider Young. He's recovering from minor ankle surgery and reportedly wants to be completely healthy for when he signs. Young doesn't get on-base a lot but he is right-handed and hits for power and had even home run splits both at home and on the road, which is notable considering the deep dimensions at Comerica Park. He wouldn't be my first choice, but he's worthy of a look on a short-term deal.

I have read in the online documentation here on the CentOS site that it may not be a good idea to install new programs by compiling from source, and that it is better to stick to tried-and-true versions in the official repositories.
Is there an email scanner that is officially approved for use with CentOS 5? I'm thinking of something such as ClamAV which seems to be popular.
I have read that there is a binary of ClamAV available for RHE5 and compatible systems (which presumably would include CentOS). I have also read that the only way to get that binary is to have a graphical interface running on CentOS, which I don't have, and to add something called "RPMforge" to the repositories that yum can search. I don't think I would feel comfortable adding an unofficial repository.
We installed the CentOS without a GUI because it is a corporate network server, not intended for "desktop" use. It needs something to check all the emails that come in to the company.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

|Terriers Dismiss Five Football Players
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Tuesday, 29 March 2011 12:13
Wofford College football coach Mike Ayers is a man that lives by the rules.And those that refuse to follow those rules are sent packing. Well, since the beginning of February, Ayers has dismissed five players for violating team rules.
Sophomore Jamar Reaves, a starting safety, and classmate Rob Williams, a defensive back, were recently removed from the team and dismissed from the school for "breaking team rules," according to Ayers.
They join three highly-regarded freshmen, quarterbacks Willie Favors and Madison Burr, and defensive back Andrew Gehring. Favors and Gehring were dismissed from school and the team after they were charged with first degree burglary and grand larceny on campus; Burr was dismissed for violating the school's honor code.
The Terriers open the season September 3 at home against Presbyterian College. They travel to Clemson on September 10. Wofford entertains Appalachian State on October 1.
The Terriers were 10-3 last year, and they reached the second-round of the Football Championship Series playoffs before they were elminiated by Southern Conference rival Georgia Southern.

PRICE/WINNEMUCCA, Nev. - Samuel Sylvester Hunt was called home by his heavenly father March 14, 2004 at the VA hospital in Reno, Nev. surrounded by his loving family.
Sam was born Jun 28, 1928 in Huntington, to Samuel Sylvester Hunt Sr. and Rosann Levi. Sam served in both the United States Air Force and Navy. He retired from the Navy in 1972. During his time in the service Sam met and married the love of his life, Barbara W. Waterman on March 28, 1950, after 33 years of marriage Sam still thought of her as his "girlfriend".
Sam enjoyed dancing at seniors, playing cards, "flipping out" with his wife, and traveling around with his wife before he became ill. Sam will always be remembered for his love and tender heart, he was always willing to help people in any way he could, Sam enjoyed spending time with his family and playing with his grandchildren when he came to Price for a visit, he will be dearly missed by all of us.
He is survived by his loving wife; and their children, Sam Hunt, Dennis Hunt, and Bruce Hunt of Winnemucca, Nev.; and Darlene (Max) Conder of Price; grandchildren, Paul Mullis, Alycia Gabriel, Lori Vasquez, Jenny Mullis, Chris Hunt; and four great-grandchildren and one on the way.

PRICE/WELLINGTON - Leah Mae Wells, age 78, of Wellington, was welcomed home by loving arms on March 20, 2004.
Leah was born to James Kershew and Vena May Wells March 19, 1926, in Victor, Emery.
Leah's place in the family was an enviable one. She was the first girl, and a red head to boot. She grew up mainly on the family farm at Victor. This was the ideal place under Jim and Vena's care to raise great crops, great livestock, and most importantly great children, all of which were counted as their "jewels".
Leah's life was filled with a love of learning. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She served an honorable mission in Canada. She was a knowledgeable scriptorian, and enjoyed sharing that knowledge and testimony as she served excellently as a gospel doctrine teacher. Leah held many other church callings, being a seminary teacher and musical director were among her most memorable.
Leah worked for the Carbon County School District for a total of 31 years, 19 of which she was an elementary education teacher. Teaching and music were two of the great loves of her life, and combining the two was absolute heaven. Surely many of her past students have a dusty ukulele tucked away on some forgotten closet shelf.
Leah was a talented writer and poet. She gave each member of her family a beautifully written family history which we all treasure. Leah loved "All Things Beautiful". We will dearly miss those things about her that we loved most.
Survived by brother, Robert E. (Carol) Wells of Salt Lake; three sisters, Anne Watt of Wellington; Pat (Gary) Christensen of Logan; Verna (Larry) Lauritsen of Price; sister-in-law, Colleen Wells of Wellington; and nephews and nieces a plenty. Preceded in death by parents; brothers, Lynn, Ray, and Dal; sister-in-law, Jean Wells; and brother-in-law, James Watt III.
The funeral will be Tuesday, Mar. 23, 11 a.m. in the Wellington LDS 1stt /4th LDS Ward Chapel with a viewing one hour prior to the funeral. Burial, Wellington City Cemetery under the direction of Fausett Mortuary in Price.
