So, good god. I got a crappy old toshiba notebook, non-functional at the time it came into my posession, and I'm trying to figure out what to do with it. I had to format the hard drive to get it to boot, so now I'm thinking linux. Only problem is, it doesn't have a cd-rom drive, and the network card is missing the dongle. So, I have two options. Either a) I can dial up at 33.6 if I can find a provider, or b) I can try doing a direct link through PLIP and installing as such.
So anyhooo, I was up fairly late last night trying this, and I seem to only have managed to damage the NFS daemon on my desktop machine. (keeps bombing out on boot now). I'll be repairing this for a bit now, but does anyone know anything about PLIP networking?
Never tried a PLIP install, but there is a HOWTO available.

$1 million Keating match to SMOA met in six weeks
By Susan Rife , Herald-Tribune | Thursday, March 20, 2014
It was thrilling enough for Wendy Surkis when Elaine Keating, a longtime supporter of the Sarasota Museum of Art, offered a million dollars in matching funds to get the museum project closer to its $22 million goal.
That was on Jan. 23. Within three days, more than $300,000 had been pledged.
And within six weeks, the million-dollar match had been met. New donations to the project now have topped $1.3 million.
As of Thursday afternoon, the balance stood at $19,545,629 and 89 cents, said Surkis, SMOA's president, who keeps the figure in her head, to the penny.
"Elaine's gift really was a definite added inspiration for people to step forward and donate at many different levels," said Surkis. "It was very helpful and at a propitious moment. She wanted to inspire the community and it really did that."
Surkis and SMOA's parent organization, the Ringling College of Art and Design, have set the end of this fiscal year — May 31 — as the target to raise the last $2.45 million.
"We're still aiming for that and I am still optimistic toward the community and the manner in which it's been stepping forward," said Surkis. "There's an excitement that is going on now."
The $22 million goal includes $14 million to renovate the former Sarasota High School building facing U.S. 41 south of downtown, and an $8 million endowment.
Keating's million-dollar match is her second major gift to the museum; when fund-raising began in earnest in 2007, Keating gave $1 million. She is a founding member of the SMOA board.
"Our area needs a world-class venue for contemporary art," Keating said in a statement released by the Ringling College. "I am very excited by what SMOA will accomplish in this building. Waiting for work to start has been like waiting for a new baby to be born."
Elaine Keating Creates 'Million Dollar Match' to Drive Completion of Funding for Ringling College's Sarasota Museum of Art
Elaine Keating, a Trustee of the Ringling College of Art and Design since 1991 and founding Sarasota Museum of Art Board Member, has pledged $1 million to match new contributions to finalize funding for Ringling College's Sarasota Museum of Art (SMOA) in the historic Sarasota High School building.
Sarasota, FL – Jan. 24, 2014 – Ringling College of Art and Design president Dr. Larry R. Thompson and Wendy G. Surkis, president of the Sarasota Museum of Art/SMOA, a division of Ringling College, announced that Ringling College trustee and SMOA board member Elaine Keating has pledged one million dollars to match new contributions to the Sarasota Museum of Art to help propel it to its completion in a 'Million Dollar Match' program.
In the 'Million Dollar Match' program every donor dollar given will be matched up to one million dollars by Elaine Keating's gift. "Our community needs a world-class venue for contemporary art," said Mrs. Keating. "I am very excited by the Sarasota Museum of Art, what will take place in that building and I am extremely motivated to have it finished. The campaign is already 80 percent funded – if we close the funding out by May we can get started remodeling the building. It's been like waiting for a new baby to be born – the final success after so much effort and expectancy. I wish it had only taken nine months, but at this point we are so close I pledged this 'Million Dollar Match' to unite our community in finishing the campaign."
"Elaine has been an exemplary supporter of Ringling College and instrumental in driving our innovation and growth over the past two decades," said Dr. Thompson. "Her 'Million Dollar Match' pledge underlines the depth of her commitment to the creation of a contemporary art museum in Sarasota like no other in the world. We are awed and inspired with Elaine's drive to complete the funding and encourage arts supporters and believers in Sarasota's future as a creative nexus to join with her in giving to make SMOA a reality."
According to SMOA president Wendy Surkis, "Elaine is one of the founding SMOA members and has been unwavering in her enthusiasm and commitment to establishing a contemporary art museum in Sarasota. Her confidence in the great value SMOA will bring to children and adults is evidenced by her original seven-figure gift to get the funding campaign started. Now she is showing her continued generosity and motivation by stepping forward with this magnificent 'Million Dollar Match' so we can complete the fundraising and move on to renovation. I love her for that and am eternally grateful."
Mrs. Keating concluded, "The people that come to Sarasota could live anywhere in the world, but we chose Sarasota. It's the culture that brings us here. The Sarasota Museum of Art is the missing link in our community for being the center for the arts that we are. I was an artist as a youngster and an art major in college. I went into business but have always had a preference for the visual arts. Ringling College is a pioneer in educating contemporary visual artists. This museum is a way for Ringling to connect even more with the Sarasota community. After all, the College may not have a football team or field, but the renovated Sarasota High School will be our football field highlighting contemporary and modern art. We are so close and my intention for this gift is to help finish the campaign and get our team on the field. It gives me great joy to be at a point in life to be able to do this - all our people benefit from it."
As Sarasota's first art museum devoted to modern and contemporary art, SMOA interweaves exhibitions, educational programs and community outreach initiatives to engage a diverse audience and serve as a stimulating hub for creative discovery. When fully funded, Ringling College and SMOA will transform the former Sarasota High School building into nearly 60,000 square feet of exhibition space, a 110-seat, multi-purpose auditorium, sculpture court, indoor/outdoor café, classrooms and studios providing education programs for adults and children, and meeting spaces.
SMOA has already been engaging and educating the community through the ARTmuse program. Lisa Hoke, the current artist in the SMOA 2014 ARTmuse program, began working on her installation on January 15 and will work through February 4. Using massive quantities of everyday consumer materials, Lisa is creating one of her color-saturated installations with the assistance of volunteers from our community, akin to the work SMOA is doing to re-purpose the location into a dynamic arts destination for contemporary visual art.
The 2013 ARTmuse 'Stickworks' project with artist Patrick Dougherty exemplified the power of art to engage residents and visitors, with hundreds of volunteers helping Patrick weave his work, thousands visiting and walking through his creation and millions seeing 'Stickworks' as they pass in their vehicles on US 41.
To participate in the 'Million Dollar Match' program for the Sarasota Museum of Art/SMOA, please call Wendy G. Surkis at 941-309-7662 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

MASSENA The Massena Town Council hopes to use savings from refinancing its bond to help to pay for up to $3.5 million in repairs and renovations to the downtown municipal building that houses the village and town offices.
Supervisor Joseph D. Gray said the town will bond to pay for repairs to the town hall, including addressing roof problems that have resulted in leaking over the courtroom on the buildings second floor.
Mr. Gray would like the bonds financed with enough time for the town to secure bids before spring and start work as soon as the weather permits. We have to get that work done, he said. We just cant wait.
Highway Superintendent Frank Diagostino noted that water is leaking into both the courtroom and server room, where a number of computers are stored, on the north side of the building, and ceiling tiles are starting to fall out. Equipment has not yet been damaged nor have court dates been interrupted.
The roof began to leak after the snow from late December melted during the recent thaw, Mr. Gray said. The reason for the leaking has yet to be determined.
Ive been up there trying to figure out whats going on, Mr. Diagostino said. We found a few minor cracks that we patched up, but we went up in a crawl space and saw water running down the structural steel.
Two drains meet over that portion of the building, one of which is higher than the roof itself. Obviously over time water will find its way in, he said. We thought we could see, but who knows where the water is coming in.
The roof was installed about 10 years ago, which left some town officials wondering about its effectiveness.
We have to find out why if its a problem with the installation or if it has outlived its usefulness, Mr. Gray said.
Town officials werent able to provide the name of the contractor that installed the roof.
Mr. Gray estimated the work to cost between a minimum of $1.5 million to $2 million and a maximum of $3 million to $3.5 million. He plans to work with C&S, a Syracuse-based engineering firm that has been responsible for work at the Massena International Airport for the past 25 years, on the building improvement plan process.
He said the annual payments for the new bonds likely will be covered by the savings from refinancing bonds held by the town and Massena Memorial Hospital. Refinancing now could significantly lower the interest rates on the bonds, saving the hospital a projected $780,000 and the town a projected $169,000 over the next 15 years, according to town Bookkeeper Nancy Fregoe.
However, hospital officials would prefer to wait until mid-2013 to avoid fees associated with refinancing bonds before they mature, Mr. Gray told the town board in December. Town officials have said the fees for refinancing the bonds will be in the $80,000 range.
Mr. Gray plans to meet with officials from the hospital and Fiscal Advisors & Marketing, a bond advisement organization, to discuss the pros and cons of the hospital refinancing its bonds. If it chooses not to, Mr. Gray said, the town would consider refinancing its outstanding bonds on its own.
The refinancing could lower the interest rates on the bonds from 4.125 to 2 percent, Ms. Fregoe said. The $11 million bonds were taken out in 2003, $8.9 million of which went to refinance MMHs capital improvement project and the rest went to improvements to the Massena Town Hall and Massena International Airport, Ms. Fregoe said.
Mr. Gray plans to look for grants through the St. Lawrence River Valley Redevelopment Agency and the United States Department of Agriculture, but he noted there are limited sources of grant funding available for these types of projects.
At Wednesdays town board meeting, Mr. Gray said they could receive a maximum of $30,000 from the DOA, but due to the numerous grant requirements the town would have to fulfil, he doesnt expect the town to receive any significant funding. Because of all these other entanglements that come with this federal money being equal opportunity, meeting certain requirements for minority-owned businesses, minority-owned contractors, etc. - it is very hard to meet some of those requirements, he said.

Additional Tea Leaves
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Sun, 10/12/08, 11:00pm:
At a certain point, the Brand story will run its natural course here in Los Angeles. I hope that time is soon. But it's probably worth noting Jonathan Abrams' piece in this morning's New York Times on Brand:
[Brand] was on the verge [of re-signing with the Clippers], focusing on the fine print with Clippers Coach Mike Dunleavy, who also had the role of general manager, a title recently made official by the team's parting with its longtime vice president for basketball operations, Elgin Baylor.
Dunleavy negotiated directly with Brand. They agreed on money and years, but became stuck at a point for an early termination option, a clause that would allow him to become a free agent earlier.
"My last correspondence with him was July 1 at 7:57 p.m.," Dunleavy recently said in a telephone interview. "He texted, 'Hey Coach, I have some problem with some language and the E.T.O.'
"By the next morning, I texted him back and said I got it taken care of and to call me. I haven't heard from him since."
At that point, Brand recalled, his agent, David Falk, told him: "Turn your phone off. You're not talking to them anymore. I'm your agent. Let me do my job."
Brand cut off communication with everybody from the Clippers. Falk took charge of Brand's negotiations and, after entertaining an offer from the Warriors, Brand signed a five-year, $82 million deal with the 76ers.
The signing ignited a war of words between Dunleavy and Falk, through radio waves and newspapers. It put a mark on Brand's good-guy reputation in the N.B.A.
"It wasn't an issue of him leaving," Dunleavy said. "It was an issue how Elton left. To me, it was that he didn't even call or explain it after the time we had together. I basically did all I could for the guy. He could have called me up and said this is better for my family and I would have said O.K. What could I do with that?
"After being with somebody for five years and being as close as I thought I was with someone and a guy gives his word, that's all it would have taken as far as I'm concerned. It's just one of those types of things."
Brand acknowledged that he had not spoken with Dunleavy since.
"After that, it was kind of he-said, she-said; I didn't know what was true," Brand said. "But Coach Dunleavy was the best pro coach I played for. I got the furthest in my career and I was an All-Star under him. I hope it's water under the bridge because I think he's a good coach and a good person."
Most fans might be inclined to blame Falk. But agents are intrinsically amoral, and Falk's actions don't fall outside the boundaries of what's typical in pro sports -- though this was clearly an atypical situation. I suspect that Elton's recollection of Falk's imperative to cut off all contact with the Clippers is probably accurate. Whether that absolves Elton of doing the right thing by Dunleavy, the Clippers organization, people who like the Clippers, Baron Davis, etc, depends on how much self-management and loyalty you demand from the pro athletes you support. Likewise, whether you blame the Clippers' organization depends on how much competence you demand from your team to close deals, irrespective of whether agents act like agents and players act like players -- and whether you consider these factors to be beyond the organization's control.

LED streetlight demonstration allows side-by-side comparison
Each newly installed light contains 80 LEDs, which emit the equivalent light at ground level as the 250-watt high pressure sodium fixtures nearby.
Although the initial capital outlay for LED lights is currently much more expensive (it would cost between $10 million and $15 million to retrofit the City?s entire streetlight inventory) they may cost less to operate and maintain long term.
The LED lights were purchased through a $3.7 million federal Energy Efficiency Conservation Block Grant (EECBG). The grant was awarded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The LED Streetlight Pilot Program received $473,267 to retrofit a total of 430 streetlights.

Narrow your search
Sling TV's bargain price and freedom from contracts make it well worth a test-drive for prospective cord-cutters or "cord-nevers" who can live with its stripped-down selection of live TV channels.
Visit manufacturer site for details
We've limited the list to standalone streaming boxes, but be aware that lots of other home theater devices are competent streamers these days, from Blu-ray players to game consoles.
The way you set up your home cinema equipment matters. Sharon Profis explains why on "You're Doing it All Wrong."
Apple's new streaming-video box offers a real app store including games, a new remote with a touchpad, Siri voice interaction including cross-app search, and a revamped interface.
Pricing not available
The new Fire TV streams 4K video and offers faster, more capable hardware. It'll cost £80 in the UK.
Google is taking yet another shot at a living room software platform with Android TV, which runs on the upcoming Android L platform.
Pricing not available
While the Nvidia Shield's 4K video and solid gaming chops make it the most potent Android TV device yet, app shortfalls and a relatively high price limit its appeal.
The Fire TV streaming-media box is an impressive living room debut for Amazon, with standout features like voice search, gaming, and superfast video streaming, but it falls short of being an elite streamer -- at least for now.
Razer's Android TV device has its own PC game-streaming technology, and will be arriving in the first part of the year. Can it help define the iffy Android gaming space?
While it doesn't match the app selection or search capabilities of Roku, Amazon's Fire TV Stick's solid performance and mastery of Amazon content make it easily worth the $40 price.
The PlayStation TV sounds great on paper, but out of the gate, it underwhelms as both a gaming and an entertainment box.

VENICE, Florida - Located right off Tamiami Trail on beautiful Robert's Bay, Marker 4 Oyster Bar is known for both its amazing views and savory seafood.
"I had the grilled grouper, probably the best piece of fish I've had since I've been down here," said customer Dave Johnson from Boston.
But Johnson was unaware Marker 4 got bad marks from the state, racking up 13 critical violations on their July 18 inspection. The biggest problem: ROACHES.
The inspector documented dead roaches on a shelf above where the food is prepared, and 32live roaches -- including by the main food prep table, on the kitchen floor, underneath the frying station, crawling across the ketchup and mustard packets. They also found roach eggs inside a box of plastic silverware.
The inspector returned the following day and documented finding more roaches on the salad dressing, behind the knife holder, in with the cups, and crawling up the walls.
"There were some roaches in the dry food area, but no roaches in the food or anywhere else," said Marker 4 manager Richard Mote. "We took everything out, all the dry storage, every dish, took everything outside, had it taken care of. We had our exterminators come in not once, but twice."
Mote even offered to take our camera on a tour of the kitchen. Inside, we found food up off the floor, soap at the employee hand sink, and no more bugs.
Customers we talked to were very happy to hear that news.
"They had a problem, it was addressed," said Johnson. "I came here twice, I ate here yesterday and I ate here tonight, and I would come back tomorrow."
Management says they're committed to keeping their kitchen clean. "We're all taken care of," said Mote. "We're striving not to have anything like that happen again."

CITES, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, is an international agreement between governments aimed at setting common rules on trade in endangered species.
Representatives from countries around the world met in Doha, Qatar this week to debate trade rules governing various wild plants and animals. At the meeting, restraints on trade were set on some species, including a large rhinoceros beetle found only in wet forests in Bolivia and Kaiser's Spotted Newt, a salamander found in Iran. Trade restrictions were voted down, however, on bluefin tuna, pink and red corals, and three species of hammerhead sharks. We'll get an update on the meeting and its decisions.

Recent years have seen much attention focus on preparing workers for the future high-tech economy, particularly in the STEM subjects science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Workers with solid backgrounds in these distinct, yet interrelated, fields are the true innovators in the emerging global information economy, and will become increasingly important assets to the United States in the 21st century. The bulk of the economic growth in the coming years is expected to be centered in the countries and regions within those countries where the workforce is most proficient in the STEM subjects. Ensuring a qualified supply of STEM-workers is also becoming increasingly essential for national security purposes.

LeRoy, NY - Its a story that continues to gain national attention as a community searches for answers in what's behind the mysterious illness that has affected several teenage girls in the Town of LeRoy.
National environmental groups such as one led by environmental activist Erin Brockovich, and others are in LeRoy this weekend to launch their own investigation. Brockovich's team visited the LeRoy Junior-Senior High School on Saturday, and other parts of the town to get some ground samples they believe could shed some light on why a cluster of female students at the school developed tics, twitches and verbal outbursts last fall.
One incident they are focusing on is a train derailment that happened near the high school 40-years ago. The industrial solvent trichlorothene, also known as "TCE" was spilled in the derailment 3 miles from the school. The chemicals may have seeped into the water below ground. Environmental Investigator Bob Bowcock said, "I understand this school was built on old swamp lands so if you've reconfigured the ground water aquifer capability of breaching the surface, all those different things could have caused a released of the "TCE" into the surface environment from the subsurface environment."
School Superintendent Kim Cox stopped by the school to issue this statement saying, "Certainly anything that's being taken, samples or anything being taken in the nature of this would be considered invalid because its not going through the appropriate protocols, and the district is working to do that an so that's where our statement is."
Recently LeRoy Central Schools released the results of environmental tests conducted at the girl's school, saying "The health and safety of our staff and students is our first priority. The medical and environmental investigations have not uncovered any evidence that would link the neurological symptoms to anything in the environment or of an infectious nature."
Please stay tuned to WGRZ for all the latest information as we continue to follow this story.

Since modern man began to leave the continent of Africa nearly 70,000 years ago, practically every inch of the inhabitable earth has been reached by human settlers. Today, we base so much of our identity on our nationality; where we think we come from, and where our ancestors originated.
The far-flung islands of Polynesia were the last places to be populated and current inhabitants are thought to have come from South East Asia. On their long-stretching trade voyages, Malaysian seafarers judged the distance they had travelled using charts, creating early forms of maps such as this one from the Marshall Islands.
The sticks recorded ocean swells and the sea shells represent islands strung throughout the North Pacific. The skilled seamen used 'way-finding' navigation based on their observations of the sea, sky and monsoon winds.
According to the International Organization for Migration, "No universally accepted definition for 'migrant' exists." However, the term is generally applied to groups of people moving from one area to another in order to settle and improve their way of life.
In man's earlier days this meant conquering unknown lands and seas that had never been seen before, but in present society, asking 'How did you get here?' may be ever more relevant as populations become more and more ethnically diverse for so many reasons.
Imagine your local area experiences a natural disaster like a flood. Where would you go? Nowadays it is easy for some of us to travel around, but for people in developing countries and indeed for many of our predecessors, it wasn't as simple as getting into a vehicle or following a map.
Ask someone where they're from and most will answer without hesitation, with the country of their birth, their upbringing or their parents' home country. Science can now tell us, using techniques such as DNA testing, how our genes decide who we are but also from whom exactly we have come.
Should the National DNA Database be used to help people find out about their personal ancestry?
What does your nationality mean to you?

MORRISTOWN - Wetland protection regulations may slow down construction on a $500,000 road connecting Main and Bay Streets in the village, though Department of Public Works employees are still working to clear the land.
The project is designed to connect the northern and southern parts of the village in the event that the bridge spanning Morristown Bay is shut down. Village officials expect the bridge will be closed in the near future due to structural deficiencies.
Earlier in the year the village purchased a $96,000, 130-acre property that reaches from Main to Bay Street.
Part of the property contains wetlands, and Mayor Cheryl A. Shatraw said the Army Corps of Engineers instructed the village to get a plan in place that will allow for the road to have as light a footprint as possible.
Mrs. Shatraw said the corps wants to ensure that water is able to pass relatively freely under the road.
Village Superintendent of Public Works Kevin J. Crosby said the village is consulting with the state Department of Environmental Conservation to work out the engineering details to ensure wetland protection.
Mr. Crosby said he expects the process may slow down, but not halt, the project.
In the meantime, DEC has given the village a permit to demolish a beaver dam in the path of the road and trap the beaver.
Mr. Crosby said the engineering study needed to protect the wetlands wont be completed until spring or summer.
The village will press on clearing the 60-foot wide, 0.75-mile-long path through the forest where the road will eventually be built, Mr. Crosby said, so they it be ready to build once the study is complete.
The total price tag for the project, including paving the road, is roughly $576,000, Mr. Crosby said.
Mrs. Shatraw said the village is working on a plan to pay for the project. Currently the village is investigating low-interest bank loans and grants.
Mrs. Shatraw said she hopes to have more clarity about funding sources by the spring when the village passes its 2014-2015 fiscal year budget.
With the bridge in a state of disrepair, Mrs. Shatraw said, the road is a top priority for the village to ensure emergency vehicles have access to the southern part of the village.
Without the bridge a two minute trip from the Morristown Volunteer Fire Department to the intersection of Northumberland and Bay Streets would take 12 minutes.
Once the road is built, Mrs. Shatraw said, the village hopes to see economic development follow. Removing the bridge would allow the water in the bay to flow more freely, possibly opening up waterfront property.
Back years ago when I was a kid you could swim in there, Mrs. Shatraw said of the bay that is now clogged with mud and weeds. It would be great to be able to develop that bay if we could get the bridge out of there and get the water flowing like it used to.

Carthage coach Marty Weaver has been encouraging his girls soccer team to finish off the opposition when the opportunity presents itself.
Junior forward Bryanna Gagnon and her teammates did just that on Monday night with a victory against Immaculate Heart Central after settling for a tie against the Cavaliers in the first meeting this season.
Gagnon scored the deciding goal in the 94th minute as Carthage edged past IHC 2-1 in a Frontier League A Division game on a frosty evening.
We wanted to finish what we started after the first game, Gagnon said. This was a very physical game.
With the victory, the Comets improved to 4-3-1, including 4-2-1 in the league, and maintained a share of the division lead with Watertown, which defeated General Brown, 1-0 on Monday.
For me, I havent really thought much about us being tied for first, Carthage coach Marty Weaver said. IHC is a good rival and weve had some close games, so its nice to come away with a win. But I think mostly, its nice to see us finishing a game well. Thats something weve been talking about and working on sometimes we havent finished. So to win like this is what Im really excited about.
With both teams battling to a 1-1 deadlock through regulation and after a scoreless first overtime period, both sides appeared headed to another draw as the two tied 1-1 in the league opener for both Sept. 4.
That was before Carthage finished off a prime chance in the second extra session to close out the Cavaliers.
Gagnon collected in the ball off a free kick from teammate Cassie Birth, sped down the left wing and beat goalie Skylar Short with a drive into the left side of the net with 6:44 remaining in the second overtime.
She was just in the right place at the right time, Weaver said of Gagnon. Shes been like that all year and hasnt been able to finish much, but tonight she did it. She had one earlier tonight, but she hit it right at the keeper and she came back and made up for it with this one.
Junior goalkeeper Becky Brandal made four saves to record the win for the Comets.
Yet it was Carthages team effort on defense led by senior defenders Doria Darroch and Alexis Wallace and juniors Morgan Miller and Emily Busch which shut down IHC when it counted most.
Were learning to play a system we havent played before, Weaver said of his teams defense. So each game is just a little bit of a learning experience for us. Different teams play different styles and its about how we adjust.
After the Cavaliers produced several scoring chances in the final minutes of the second half, they were unable to generate any shots in overtime.
I thought we played very well tonight, IHC coach Kurt Robbins said. But they were able to get that ball over the top and they scored. It was a pretty even game other than that. ... Were a very young team, but we still had our chances.
Junior goalie Short was credited with 18 saves for IHC (1-5-2, 1-4-1) to keep the score tied for most of the game.
IHC took an early 1-0 lead as Brandal made a save on Charisse LaPointe, but Rachel Chamberlain was there to boot the rebound past the goalie in the games sixth minute.
We gave up that early goal, which tends to be our thing right now, Weaver said. We always seem to come from behind to win games. But we settled in and started to play together and it was nice to see.
Freshman forward Rebekah Zehr, who leads the team in scoring, followed with the tying tally with an unassisted effort as she worked her way down the left side and placed a drive into the right side of the IHC goal in the eighth minute.
This is a big deal, Gagnon said. In my freshman year we were tied for first as well as we had a hard loss against Watertown. So its good to be in first place again.
The Comets, unbeaten against A Division foes at 3-0-1, have five league games remaining on their schedule and close their regular season by hosting Watertown at 6 p.m. on Oct. 9.

Mom told you to wash your hands -- but do you? New research published in the American Journal of Public Health gets the dirt on our handwashing behaviors. Researchers observed the behavior of drivers visiting highway service station restrooms, recording entry and soap use, and studied what kinds of signs were most likely to encourage more handwashing.
Women responded best to text messages mentioning germs, while men were most affected by unpleasant messages such as "Soap it off, or eat it later." We'll talk with one of the authors of the paper about their study and what they discovered.
