His list of achievements in the college hockey circuit places him among the elite in the coaching ranks. He is not only the winningest coach in Badger history in any sport, but he is the WCHA�s most victorious and most tenured coach.
This season marks Jeff Sauer�s 31st year behind the collegiate bench and his 20th season in charge of the Badger hockey program. Since beginning his coaching career back in 1966, as a 23-year-old assistant to the legendary Bob Johnson at Colorado College, Sauer has become the fourth-winningest coach in NCAA history and is the only person in WCHA annals to coach 30 seasons in the league.
The 58-year-old Sauer holds numerous league coaching records including those for longevity and for most games coached (1,225). His 647 wins rank fourth (third among active coaches) on the all-time coaches victory list.
Sauer is one of just two current coaches in the WCHA with two national titles (Dean Blais of UND is the other). In fact, there have been only eight coaches in the history of the WCHA that have multiple NCAA championships and that list reads like a Who�s Who of College Hockey Coaches. DU�s Murray Armstrong (5) and Michigan�s Vic Heyliger (4) head the list followed by Bob Johnson (UW), John MacInnes (MTU), Herb Brooks (UM) and Gino Gasparini (UND), each with three.
In his 20th year at the UW, Sauer has enjoyed unprecedented success. No other coach has won more UW games (481) or coached in more contests (822). Those 481 wins include a mark of 61-32-7 (.645) over the last two seasons.
Under his direction, Badger teams have flourished both in conference play and on the national scene.
He became the first coach in college history to win a national title in his inaugural season at a school when the 1982-83 Badgers won the school�s fourth NCAA championship. His second national title came during the 1989-90 season when that team went 36-9-1 on its way to recording the school�s second-winningest season in history.
Sauer has recorded four 30-win seasons (1982-83, 1987-88, 1989-90, 1999-2000), the most of any UW coach.
In WCHA play, the UW has finished in the league�s top three 14 times during his tenure, winning league titles in 1990 and 2000.
Sauer won his 600th career game in December of 1999, joining an elite group of four others to pass that plateau. He is the only coach at the UW (in any sport) to win that many games and just the third coach in WCHA annals to win that many games at one school.
One of the most-respected coaches in the game, he continues to be a consummate diplomat for the game of hockey. Sauer remains involved at all levels of hockey, from instructing kids at summer camps to speaking at high school assemblies to coaching international-level athletes in world tournaments.
In the summer of 2000, Sauer was honored by USA Hockey, when he received the JOFA/USA Hockey Distinguished Achieve-ment Award. The award is given annually to a U. S. citizen who has made hockey his or her profession and has made outstanding contributions, on or off the ice, to the sport in America.
Many of Sauer�s former players have received national honors and gone onto successful careers in pro hockey. Seventeen have earned all-America honors, including three first-team selections in the last two years -- Steve Reinprecht and Jeff Dessner (2000) and Dany Heatley (2001). Reinprecht (runner up) and Heatley were also finalists for the Hobey Baker Memorial Award. In 1998, Erik Raygor won the Humanitarian Award, given to college hockey�s finest citizen.
Names like Chelios, Driver, Flatley, Granato, Joseph, Mellanby and Richter have adorned NHL jerseys for decades after playing collegiately for Sauer at Wisconsin.
Over the years, Sauer�s Badger teams have been very successful in the playoffs and have a reputation of peaking when the postseason arrives.
Over the years, his teams have averaged 25 victories per year and posted at least 24 wins 12 times. Under Sauer, Wisconsin teams have earned NCAA tournament bids in 11 of the last 14 years, including eight consecutive seasons (1988-95).
Sauer has guided the Badgers to a stellar 69-36-2 (.654) mark in the postseason. Noted for their second-half surges, the Badgers own a cumulative 255-145-26 (.629) record from Jan. 1 through the playoffs since 1982-83 and a mark of 160-89-16 (.634) from Feb. 1 through the playoffs in that same time period.
In addition to being one of college hockey�s top coaches, Sauer has had a noticeable presence on the international scene as well. He is very active in USA Hockey, the national governing body for U.S. hockey, and is dedicated to the development and promotion of hockey at all levels in the United States. Sauer has been chosen frequently to coach U.S. select teams in international competition.
He currently serves on USA Hockey�s International Committee which is involved in the selection of coaches and teams for various world tournaments and championships and will assist in determining Team USA for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah.
In August of 2000, Sauer coached his first-ever women�s team at the women�s Olympic Festival in Lake Placid, N.Y. Olympian Cammi Granato (a sister to former Badgers Tony, Don and Rob and a cousin to Kevin) was one of his players, becoming the fifth member of the Granato family to be coached by Sauer.
In August of 1998, Sauer was head coach for the inaugural WCHA All-Star Team that competed against elite teams from Germany and Switzerland in the Kolin Cup Tournament in Switzerland. It was the first time in collegiate hockey conference history that a league sent an all-star team overseas.
During the summer of 1997, Sauer was one of two coaches for the U.S. Select Team which played at the Tampere Cup in Finland. The team, made up of 20 of the top American-born collegiate players, competed against top international teams.
In the spring of �95, Sauer was chosen to be head coach of the U.S. National Team at the World Championships in Sweden. The American team finished first in Group B, emerging from first-round action with a 3-0-2 record. With wins over Austria (5-2), Norway (2-1) and the Czech Republic (4-2) and ties against Sweden (2-2) and Finland (4-4), the United States advanced to the medal round, before losing its first game to Canada (4-1).
Sauer was a finalist for both the 1992 and 1994 U. S. Olympic coaching jobs. In April of 1992, Sauer was an assistant coach for the U.S. at the World Tournament in Prague, Czechoslovakia.
At the 1990 Goodwill Games, Sauer served as head coach of Team USA. Prior to the Games, Team USA beat the Soviet Union�s National Team in an exhibition contest at the Oakland Coliseum. It was the first time since 1980 that a U.S. squad had beaten a team from Russia.
That Goodwill Games team advanced to the gold medal game against the Soviet Union, but lost a 4-3 decision in a shootout at the end of sudden death.
In 1989, Sauer coached the USA Select Team at the Pravda Cup (Leningrad, U.S.S.R.). During the spring of 1985, he served as an assistant coach to the late Dave Peterson for the USA Hockey team that participated in the International Ice Hockey Federation World Championships in Czechoslovakia.
Sauer has also coached at the Olympic Festival (1987), served on the U.S. Olympic Hockey Committee (1984), been a member of the NCAA Rules Committee (eight years) and served as editor of the rule book.
Since 1968 when he became an assistant coach at Wisconsin, Sauer has been involved with hockey schools during the summer. His Wisconsin Hockey Schools have been located in Madison, Milwaukee and St. Louis, Mo. over the years.
He has assisted at the Bob Johnson Hockey School in Aspen (Colo.) and has worked as a counselor for Stan Mikita�s hockey camp for the hearing-impaired in Chicago for nearly 25 years. In 1997, he was honored by the Stan Mikita hockey schools for his service and dedication.
Sauer began his coaching career at Colorado College as an assistant to the �Badger� Bob Johnson. In addition to his coaching duties with the hockey program, Sauer was also an assistant baseball coach, a sport he played and lettered in as an undergraduate at CC.
In 1968, he followed Johnson to Wisconsin becoming his first full-time assistant at the UW. Sauer was an assistant coach for the Badgers when the UW made its first-ever appearance in the NCAA tournament in 1970. He served in that capacity until 1971, when he accepted the head coaching job at Colorado College.
At CC, where he served as head coach from 1971-82, Sauer won 166 games and was twice named WCHA Coach of the Year. His first award came following his rookie season, and the second followed the 1974-75 campaign when Colorado College posted a 23-16-0 record. The Tigers� third-place WCHA finish that season was the highest in 15 years for a CC team.
Sauer graduated from Colorado College in 1965 with a B.S. in sociology.
Sauer and his wife Jamie (also a CC alum) reside in Middleton, Wis., and are the parents of a son Chip and daughter Beth. Chip graduated from Wisconsin in 1999 with a degree in engineering mechanics and Beth is a senior at Colorado College this year.

If you have been following my blog you would know that I love photography as much as I love cooking and baking. I like to capture snippets of my life and various milestones in the form of pictures and that's the main reason I love Instagram, where you speak and express through pictures. To reveal a quirk of mine though - as much as I love photography, I hate posing for pics which is why you would rarely find my selfies or pictures. But I am glad my daughter has taken on her dad and loves posing for mommy. Here are a few pictures I took for her 5th birthday (Yep - she is already 5 - time flies !!!).
Every year for my daughter's birthday I make an elaborate cake. This year even though I was pumped up in spirit I just could not muster the energy to get into the whole physical process. So I decided to cheat a little (well a lot ;) ) by using a cake mix. I jazzed up these cupcakes and made them pistachio flavored by adding Jell-O pudding mix. This addition not only enhanced the flavor but also gave the cupcakes a cute pastel green color. Quite a few went into our bellies before getting frosted :) This is how they looked before they got frosted.
After frosting the cupcakes I had a challenge to take a picture that would showcase both the blue and pink colored cupcakes together. After a few failed attempts I took a walk outside my house thats when my eyes spots these pretty vines and I came up with the above arrangement. I was pretty pleased with how it looked finally !
Yields: 24 cupcakes
Ingredients for cupcakes
1 box - White or yellow cake mix & the ingredients that the recipe calls for (I used Betty Crocker)1 box - Jell-O Pistachio pudding mix
Directions for cupcakes
- Follow the directions on the cake box and mix all the ingredients along with the pudding mix.
- Line the cupcake tray with cupcake-liners
- Fill the batter in the cupcake-liners up to the halfway mark
- Bake as per package directions and let the cupcakes cool on a cooling rack before frosting them.
Ingredients for frosting
1/2 Cup - Butter (at room temperature)
3 1/2 Cups - Confectioners' sugar / powdered sugar
1 1/2 Teaspoon -Vanilla extract
1 Tablespoon - Whipping cream (optional)
Wilton 2D tip (closed star)
Piping bag or Ziploc bag
Food Color of your choice (I used pink, blue and purple)
Directions for frosting
- Whisk the confectioners' sugar, butter, vanilla essence on lowest speed.
- Once the ingredients incorporate and turn into a homogeneous mixture, increase the speed and whisk for another 3-5 minutes or until the frosting is fluffy.
- Divide the frosting into 2 parts (one for the pink hydrangea flowers and the other for blue hydrangea flowers)
- For pink hydrangea flowers, I divided the frosting into 3. I added a pink color to the first part to get a dark pink color. To the second part I added fewer drops to get a light pastel pink color and to the 3 part I didn't add any color.
- Fit the 2D tip onto the piping bag and fill it 3 colors (dark pink, pale pink and white) in equal proportion, side by side. Now start piping large star shapes around the edges of the cupcakes, then moving to the center.
- For the blue hydrangeas, I divided the frosting into 2. To the first portion I added blue color and to the rest I added purple color. Then I filled the piping bag with both the colors side by side and started decorating as mentioned above.
Note and Tips
- If the icing gets very soft, then place the piping bag in the fridge. This will make the frosting firmer and easier to handle
- I made the cupcakes and frosting 1 day ahead of the party. But if are using it the same day feel free to add 1 tablespoon of whipping cream to it to make the frosting fluffier.
- Watch this tutorial from Rosie Cake Diva for more tips on piping the flowers.

How to Treat Body Lice
Body lice are tiny parasitic bugs that are 2.3 - 3.6 mm in length. Body lice live in clothing, and only move to the skin to feed. They also lay eggs in clothing. This article will outline steps to treat a body lice infestation.
1Maintain access to regular changes of clean clothing. Body lice prefer unsanitary conditions.Ad
2Bathe regularly and improve your personal hygiene. Body lice live and reproduce on your skin.
3An infested person may also be treated with a pediculicide, a medicine that can kill lice. A pediculicide is not necessary if items are laundered at least once weekly and proper hygiene is maintained. A pediculicide should be applied exactly as directed by your physician or as stated on the bottle.Ad
Give us 3 minutes of knowledge!
- Do not share bedding, clothing, or towels with someone infested with body lice.
- Wash clothing at least once weekly using the hot cycle and high heat drying.
- Epidemics of louse-borne relapsing fever and typhus have been caused by body lice.
- Body lice are known to transmit disease. If you have skin rashes or additional infections caused by excessive scratching, see a doctor.
- "Vagabond's disease" is a condition caused by an infestation of lice for a significant period of time. The condition consists of darkening and hardening of the skin in areas heavily bitten, usually the mid-section of the body.

Upon emerging from my formal sitting meditation I decided to unload the dishwasher with deep concentration and mindfulness. As I slowly began the process of unloading the clean dishes I thought about each cup, each plate and each utensil. How many wonderful meals have these plates and bowls held for this body to enjoy!! How many times have those forks and spoons helped me eat??
Yet I could not have savored these many wonderful tastes without water for more then one reason but mostly I was concentrating upon the cleaning aspect of water. How wonderful that we have this beautiful, soft, cool manifestation to cleanse our body and dishes amongst so many other gifts. When later washing dishes to put into the dishwasher I ran my fingers through the water cascading out of the facet. Here I had a little waterfall right in my home!! I couldn't help but think of all the beautiful waterfalls that I saw upon our visit to Oregon a few years ago. However, mostly I thought of the world famous Multnomah falls (pictured above) outside Portland--the water pouring into the sink through my hands was no different then the water pouring down the Multnomah falls!! What a great thing to have a waterfall in one's house!! How lucky that I am to have such a delightful and generous gift.
It made me think about my brothers and sisters around the world who do not have such access to clean drinking water. I remember the difficulty that some Africans had in obtaining water during my two years living in the Cote D'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), West Africa. They cherished every drop because of all the effort that went into obtaining it. It reminded me not to take that fresh water available right inside my house for granted. Water is so precious and as we know we'd die without it so let us treat it as the precious treasure that it is and keep our rivers and lakes clean.
However, let us return to the dishes. My focus then settled into the make-up of the plates themselves. How wondrous and curious a thing is a plate. I wouldn't even know where to start to make manifest a plate from all the non-plate elements within it. I don't even know how to make a paper plate!! However, I do enjoy them and honor all the things that go into their creation including the artisans who invest their time, energy and concentration into making these dishes possible. I care for these plates as to not break them and waste the efforts of these wonderful people.
There is no magic other then what is already around and within us. How amazing that we can create any number of things from the joining of individual elements and other materials!! A bowl is a bowl and yet it is not--it's also a rock. A table is a table and yet it is not--it is also water and iron. This warm hooded sweatshirt is a warm hooded sweatshirt and yet it is not--it's a sheep and a sowing machine. The fingers that type this post are fingers and yet they are not--they are oxygen and tomatoes. Why tomatoes? Why not? All things are found within an one isolated "thing" (as well as anything can actually be isolated). In a more precise answer, however, my mother ate many tomatoes when she was carrying me in her womb and I would not have grown into a human being without those tomatoes--amongst so many other things that she ingested and did NOT ingest.
My focus also settled next upon my beautiful, kind and compassionate wife who was the last one to touch these dishes. She was in those dishes and I gently caressed them before placing them gently in the cabinets because I wasn't just handling fragile dishes--I was handling my fragile wife at the same time. If I slammed the dishes into the cabinets without care then I was doing the same to my wife and I didn't want to bring discomfort to her so I handled them with the careful attention that they deserve.
And I also saw you, my friend reading this right now--and I smiled to you. I hope that you see my smile the next time you use a plate. And when you do? Please smile back to me to maintain an infinite circle of smiles. Thank-you in advance for your smile blessed one.
~Peace to all beings~

Please help.
Many smiles to you, James! I also make the same experience when f.ex. I'm cleaning my house in consciousness on whatever I am doing - you feel contentment and the holiness of every movement and every touch...inner peace!
Isn't it meditation?!
- trinitystar said...
Yep! Ill be thinking of you doing the chores. It is only when one focus on a job other than ones own does one see.
hugs for you.
Good post.
- Mac said...
hi James! Thanks for this beautiful post. What a great use of words!
- Greenwoman said...
Geez...I can only shake my head at you my friend. I have begun to set your blog aside for when I can just sit and share your meditation with you....because I generally feel so deeply about it. You are the kind of person that I would profoundly enjoy sharing community experience with. You'd add so much wisdom to the circle and it would be a joy to be in your physical presence as well as your writer's presence here. I feel very blessed to send you a smile when I next handle a plate. Thank you and bless you.
- They call him James Ure said...
Yes inner peace no matter what one is doing.
Trinity Star:
Thank-you kindly. I'm glad the post moved you.
Green Woman:
My, I don't quite know what to say in response to such kindness besides thank-you deeply.
I am so happy to share my meditation with you. I would be honored and pleased to participate in community. My only desire in life has been to be a teacher. I couldn't get there through school because of my mental health condition but I am glad to be able to use blogging as a way to teach and be taught.
I bet you have a great smile by the way. :)
Your words brought tears of joy and thanks to my eyes. You move me in ways that not many can do. I feel that we've known each other before.
I bow to you in respect.
- Reiki 4 Life said...
I came here based on a comment you made on one of greenwoman's (many ;) ) blogs....(pardon the paraphraseing) about how a spiritual teacher told you that mental illness is due to one
s true nature being too big to fit inside their physical body. wow. that resonates deeply with me. hmmmm.
in any case, yes to immerse oneself deeply in whatever you are doing is to find the sacredness in each moment. it is impossible to do so when you are speeding through life with a checklist in hand...marking things off just to get them done. i used to be that way, but have since learned to slow my mind, body and being...
it makes a world of difference.
and greenwoman was right...this is a place that makes you think. well deserved thinking blogger award.
- amanzi said...
Thank you, James. An inspiring post. Your meditation is your meditation, but it is also your readers. (:

7 Cup Burfi Recipe
Recipe Cuisine: Indian | Recipe Category: Sweets
- Kadalai Maavu (Besan / Chickpea flour) – 1 cup
- Fresh grated coconut – 1 cup
- Milk – 1 cup
- Ghee (Clarified butter) – 1 cup
- Sugar – 3 cups
- Keep a plate greased with ghee ready. I used 4 aluminium takeaway containers, as I was giving them off as gifts. I did grease the insides with ghee.
- Heat a thick bottomed pan with 1 tsp ghee. Add the besan and roast over low flame for 2-3 minutes till you get the roasted aroma. Transfer to a plate.
- In the same pan add another tsp of ghee. Add the grated coconut and once again roast for 2-3 mins till you get the aroma. Switch off the flame.
- Now add the roasted besan, sugar and mix well. Make sure that there are no big lumps of besan. Use a whisk if its easy for you. Now add the milk and mix well once again till the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
- Switch on the flame now, add 1/4 cup of ghee and using a wooden spatula start stirring in a circular motion slowly.
- After 10 mins, the mixture would have thickened considerably and would start letting out big bubbles. Keep stirring to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- After 20 mins the color would have also changed, now add the remaining ghee and keep mixing well till it comes into a thick mass without sticking to sides and moves to center of the pan when you spread the mass around. This should take another 5 mins.
- Transfer the burfi mass to the greased plate and tap the plate on the counter to level the top.
- While it is still warm draw lines according to your preferred shape. Once cooled down use a sharp knife to break them into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
- You can adjust the measurements according to your taste. When I make for us, 3 cups of sugar is too sweet according to my H, so I use 2 cups sugar and add 1/2 cup besan and 1/2 cup grated coconut as extra.
- Transfer to the plate once you see large spouts appearing on the top, that is the correct consistency. If you cook more than that the burfi will be crumbly and hard.
- Use fresh grated coconut and use only the white part.
- Normally as the sweet is rich with the aroma of ghee and coconut, no flavoring agent is used but feel free to use either cardamom or vanilla essence.
- I filled up 4 containers like the ones shown in the picture.

Did HBO's 'True Blood' Campaign Achieve Immortality or Just Plain Suck?
Sunday night played host to an anxiously-awaited television event on our newly all-digital TV signals (and we're not talking about the Lakers' victory). It was the premiere of the second season of True Blood, the vampiric HBO show that first catapulted into our collective consciousness with a series of extremely effective viral ads that had all of us doing double-takes when we caught our first glimpse of ads for the TruBlood energy drink. Viewership skyrocketed during the first season, so HBO was faced with the challenge to top the faux-blood beverage for Season Two. Did they?
This year, HBO tapped Digital Kitchen, the same firm that designed the main titles, to create several mock ads that target vampires. They also made six videos that played upon the thought of vampires being casually inserted into roles as lawyers and Olympic athletes (see all the videos and media response). But it's the mock ads that we're most interested in, seeing as they persuaded at least eight real brands—Harley-Davidson, Mini, Monster.com, Gillette, Geico, Marc Ecko, Comcast, and DirecTV—to hand over their logos, branding, and, in some cases, actual ad campaigns to be reinterpreted for a more fanged audience. HBO went even deeper with the prank this season, adding a page to the show's site with "Ads for Vampires" that feels like standard promotional placement, featuring all the brands and why they're supportive of the undead community (Monster.com: "Vampires unique physiology qualifies them for jobs too dangerous for humans."). Brilliant or bloody awful? Take a look at some of the companies that played along and see if you think their brand equity got its moment in the sun—er, pitch black darkness.
Mini: The headline we could have done without—it conjures up a vision of a dog hanging its head out of the rear window—but the blood-red Mini is nice, and we can totally see the teeth in the paint job.
Monster.com: There are better ones of these that we've seen around town, but you have to hand it to Monster.com for embracing the whole monster-vampire connection.
Harley-Davidson: A solid rebellious brand and it's completely believable that Harley would have vampires patronizing its bikes. Couldn't you see the Lost Boys riding these?
Gillette: These don't look much different from those Mach 3 (are we up to 5? 7?) razor ads, so it really takes a minute or two before you get the joke. Come to think of it, we've never seen a vampire that's not clean shaven. Guess they're not worried about nicks.
Geico: That talking money thing freaks us out already as it is, so the fangs are a nice touch. But do vampires really need insurance?
Nope, this wasn't an ad for True Blood's second season, rather, these were ads promoting the first season airing in New Zealand. This one's pretty great—not to mention useful if you need, say, something to stir a bucket of new paint—plus it gives new meaning to making your idea stick.
What do you think? Were True Blood's ads something you could really sink your teeth into?

HBO was also innovative in how it integrated this campaign online and offline. Check out examples of how it is utilizing video with paid search to leverage the search demand generated by the campaign here: http://www.searchandsocialmedi...
True Blood was the first show to jump the shark before it was even on the air.
The image of that sh0ow is much better then the actual show. So yes it's working great. The marketers are doing great only if the filming cast where as good.
Those ratings do sound like a vote for success, Todd. And Gretchen, that's an awesome point. These might qualify for a new category entirely: viral-obvious?
Uniquely, does something truly qualify as viral when it's so obviously done? It's hardly a sneak attack here ...
The season premiere was 2nd most watched HBO episode ever - right behind Sopranos finale, so i'd say it was a success. The campaign at least -- we'll know if the first ep did well by the second ep numbers, of course.

Presenting PRS for NAV Dev Team in Vedbæk (MDCC)
Quite an interesting day today :-).
As you might know, Gary Winter, Mark Brummel and me are also working on an initiative we call "Partner Ready Software". If you don't, it might be interesting to read up on it on one of my previous blogposts. Microsoft had seenour session in Antwerp (NAVTechDays) and Orlando (Directions US) .. which resulted into an opportunity to us to present our initiative to the NAV DEVteam. Now, as part of the MVP program, we were invited for a NAV7 "Knowledge Transfer" we refer to as "KT3″ this week, so it was a great time to combine the trip with that meeting.
So we came a day earlier .. and before we knew, we were in one of the Microsoft meeting rooms(MDCC) this morning, preparing for an internal "brown bag" session with the focus: "New NAV Architecture and Coding principles".. with the intention that we bring fresh ideas on how to code in a more decent way.. . We must admit, what we have is still all quite high level without any concrete-fully-broken-down-application-example .. but hey .. we're just in the beginning of this.
I think we can be very happy with the attendence. As far as I understand .. it wasn't mandatory to anyone .. and it was going to be recorded. So anyone could have watched it anytime anywhere. But still, the room was filled with about 40 people, and except from 2, they were all developers - our target audience. The other 2 people were program managers - and it's a good sign that also they are interested in this :-).
We talked about:
- the scope of PRS: what's PRS all about, what are we trying to achieve, .. things like that;
- the Architecture: we actually gave (probably the wrong) names to some (what we call) "Design Patterns" in NAV. This should make it easier to choose and apply some kind of design pattern to any problem.. . It's basic .. but it's progress!
- the coding: quite the same as at NAVTechDays, where we addressed things like "Atomic coding", "object-oriented coding in NAV" and "Facade designs".. .
Basically it's the same as what we did at NAVTechDays. If you're interested, I recommend you to download the movie and/or the pptx from mibuso.
And it was definitely worth doing all this. Again, people we didn't know yet at Microsoft were very interested in the content and what we were going to do with it .. but more important .. people really want to help us as well. So we really are in close contact with Microsoft now, which is very motivating on moving forward with all this … now we have to deliver! :°)
Speaking of which .. how will we move forward with this?
Well .. my very personal first job is setting up our wiki page. Too bad that the software isn't really cooperating yet .. but I'm working (and mailing with the servicedesk) on that.. . I think it's very important to set it up, because it's going to be our place to facilitate the content of PRS: that's where we'll be adding the content, writing about coding examples and all other things PRS includes .. and trying to get feedback from you on all we write :-).

Ready for his adieu: A beloved dancer reflects
This undated image released by the American Ballet Theatre shows Alina Cojocaru, left, and Spanish dancer Angel Corella in "Giselle," in New York. After 17 years with ABT, Corella bids farewell this week to his many U.S. fans with one final performance of "Swan Lake." He is retiring from ABT to focus on the Barcelona Ballet, the company he founded and directs in Spain. (AP Photo/ABT, Gene Schiavone)
NEW YORK (AP) — In the ballet world, they call him the charming one. In fact, the word "charming" is used so often to describe Angel Corella, American Ballet Theatre's dashing Spanish star, that it seems to have become part of his name.
But anyone seeking to disprove the thesis that Corella, now 36, is eternally charming will be sorely disappointed by sitting down with him. His famously sunny smile is in ready supply. He speaks with abundant generosity of the many ballerinas he's partnered. And he seems to be in awe of the 17-year ABT career that he's been privileged to have — and is about to end.
On Thursday, in what will surely be the emotional high point of the New York ballet season, Corella will dance one final time with ABT — in "Swan Lake" — before returning to Spain to focus full-time on the company he founded and directs, Barcelona Ballet.
He will continue to dance, for now, with his own company. But Thursday will also be the last time, he says, that he dances a full-length ballet.
What? No more Romeos, no more Siegfrieds in "Swan Lake," Albrechts in "Giselle," or Basilios in "Don Quixote"?
"I think it's good to close a chapter, and not leave it vague," Corella says, relaxing in between rehearsals in a lounge at the Metropolitan Opera House. "I think it's better to say this is it."
Looking at Corella in his jeans and hoodie, it's hard to imagine he's 36. Dancers always seem to look younger than their age, and Corella has an especially Login to read more

Distasteful ideas delay immigration reform
The headlines and talking heads all tell us President Bush desperately wants a comprehensive immigration reform plan passed this year to provide at least one positive legacy for him. The Senate is even putting in long hours discussing the possibilities.
But sorry, W, it probably won't happen, at least not this year. That's because the main proposal Bush and his allies in Congress are now pushing amounts to fundamental selfishness, disregard for human rights, ignoring of lawbreaking and payoffs for campaign donors, all at once.
It's a package so distasteful to so many on all sides of this issue that, regardless of what any Bush employees may now say, it's not likely to get by the House, even if the Senate should give its OK.
Here's what Bush and Republican senators like John Cornyn, of Texas, and John Kyl, of Arizona, now want to do:
End the long-standing policy where family reunification takes precedence over other factors in deciding who gets to enter this country legally.
Make the employment needs of businesses the top priority instead.
But don't do anything at all until the Border Patrol gets a 50 percent boost in personnel and 570 miles of fencing and other barriers are constructed along the Mexican border.
As part of this plan, some currently illegal immigrants would be given legal status so long as an employer wants them badly enough to vouch for them.
But those who want to become U.S. citizens would first have to leave the country and then re-enter using secured documents. Meanwhile, a guest-worker program would be created, but one that neither allows workers' families to accompany them nor lets them bring in their families later.
In short, it's an inhumane plan that helps no one but the agriculture, textile and other industries that have been major contributors to both of Bush's presidential campaigns.
And it has so many holes in it that it's hard to see how it could win a majority in either the House or Senate.
For one thing, Democrats wanting to keep the Latino vote solidly in their column will not vote in large numbers for a plan that makes unifying families a bottom priority. That would be flat-out inhumane and they would be called down for it instantly by Hispanic leaders.
For another, Republicans will not vote in large numbers for a plan that allows legalization of immigrants who entered this country illegally, no matter how hard they've worked since arriving. Too many Republicans ran on platforms flatly opposing anything like this. They know they'll face strong primary election opposition next year if they flip-flop. The same for many moderate Democratic congressmen who ran on much the same kind of platform.
And yet, business desperately needs more workers, according to Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez. "Businesses are already beginning to feel the pinch," he said, citing figures showing a combination of raids on businesses employing illegals and increased border enforcement has reduced the corps of available cheap laborers. Hundreds of California farms experienced labor shortages last summer when a shortage of migrant workers left some crops rotting.
Tough, say foes of illegal immigration. The strongly anti-illegal immigrant Center for Immigration Studies has published studies purporting to show that increasing wages for unskilled workers would attract American citizens to many jobs now taken by illegals.
Meanwhile, Democrats led by Sen. Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts say they will never agree to reduce the emphasis on family reunification and on giving future "guest workers" some kind of path to citizenship.
"You don't compromise on the morality of these issues and we're not going to," Kennedy said.
On the other extreme, Republican Rep. and presidential candidate Tom Tancredo, of Colorado, vows never to allow legalization of today's crop of undocumented immigrants, and not to allow guest workers any way to become citizens.
Both sides vow never to compromise, as Bush is trying to get them to do.
Maybe he needs to conduct a "surge" campaign for his compromise proposal. But even if he does, chances are it will be no more successful than the other surge campaign he's run for the last five months in Iraq.

PROVIDENCE – Immediately after Lincoln High senior quad-captain Nik Zicuis had posted a 10-5 triumph over La Salle Academy senior John Georges in the 220-pound weight class, he hustled to the opposing coaches' corner and accepted congratulatory handshakes.
He then sprinted to the opposite side and leaped into head coach Mike Tuorto's arms; while hugging him and grinning at able assistant Anthony Turchetta, Zicuis threw his fist into the air, index finger pointing skyward.
That's when, and how, he truly celebrated his second-ever state title at these R.I. Interscholastic Wrestling Championships, held at the Providence Career & Technical Academy field house on Saturday evening.
"This is the best feeling in the world right now," Zicuis laughed. "This is everything I felt my sophomore year, but so much better because I'm a senior. I've been pointing for this for so long."
It nevertheless had been a trying road back to "champion status" for the amiable, gregarious Lion. Last winter, he gained weight and – as a result – had to grapple in the heavyweight (or 285-plus pounds) division. He ended up taking fourth at the 2012 version of "States," and failed to qualify for the New England tourney.
Toward the end of his junior campaign, a doctor diagnosed Zicuis with extra fluid in a testicle, and underwent surgery to his groin in late June.
"My coach (Tuorto) had told me after states last year that, if I lost that weight – I was weighing in at about 260 – I'd win again at 220," Zicuis offered. "I had my mind set on (losing the poundage), but then I had to have the surgery. My mom (Bobbie-Jo) was terrified, and, I've got to say I was a little nervous myself.
"The surgery wasn't that long, but I couldn't do anything, no exercise, no nothing, for about a month; I ended up losing 40 pounds," he added. "What Coach had told me was always in the back of my mind. I kept my (gold) medal by the side of my bed, and I kept looking at it.
"I was really bummed because I had the chance to go to the Junior Olympics in (Houston) Texas (as a member of the Wadsworth, Mass. Wrestling Club), but I couldn't. The surgery, though, helped me get back to 220, and that gave me more motivation."
After a long fall season on the gridiron, the center/nose tackle continued to ponder how he'd compete on the mat, but it didn't take long for him to realize he was on the right track.
He entered the state 220-pound category as the No. 3 seed after finishing the campaign with a stellar 39-3 individual record. He also was a key cog in the Lions' first-ever capture of the Division II-South title with a terrific 15-2 mark.
Zicuis made his title-winning match against Georges look just as elementary as 15-2. He took a 2-0 lead into the second period, and needed just seven ticks to gain a 4-0 advantage. Over the next 15 seconds, Georges pulled off a reversal, but Zicuis responded with a one-point escape. With 11 left, another two-point takedown gave him a 7-2 cushion to start the third, and he sailed to the gold.
Actually, his victory happened to be the night's second for Lincoln. Junior quad-captain Alex D'Aloisio collected his initial Ocean State title after pinning Cumberland High junior (and "Cinderella story") Kris Nordby at 2:30.
"Nik won at 220 two years ago at 215. then went to heavy but took fourth last year; he lost to (then-East Providence junior) Jonah Aurelio in the semis," Tuorto stated after the bout. "When he didn't qualify for New Englands, that bothered him profusely. It made him work really hard to get back to 220 and win another championship.
"I've got to say, it was a perfectly wrestled match," he continued. "Nik got the first takedown, took the lead and never relinquished it. If (Georges) countered, he countered right back, and that's why he's the state champion.
"This is a true testament to his mental fortitude and his work ethic, to set a goal and achieve it, and Alex is the same way. If someone had asked me if I thought our kids would win (Saturday), I would've said, 'I know it!' I've seen the desire and the work they've done all season. I mean, they have a combined 85 wins this year, so there's nothing they do that surprises me."
Tuorto then chuckled, "The only difference between them is 100 pounds. Honestly, you look at the season we've had: 15-2 dual-meet record, division champion for the first time in the team's (approximate 14-year) history and two state champions. From where this program was even two years ago to where we are now, OK, now I'm speechless!"
Thanks to those two crowns, Lincoln finished 15th overall with 56 points, again it's best ever. Defending team champion Cumberland took fifth with 113.5, only seven shy of fourth-place Mount Hope. Hendricken cruised to the crown with 168, a whopping 34.5 more than runner-ups Exeter/West Greenwich and Johnston. Still, it was a bittersweet event for the Clippers, who landed four matmen in the finals but didn't earn an individual title.
Junior Cody Beaudette came the closest at 113, though had to settle for a 2-0 loss to Warwick Vets' John Altieri. In the very next match, D'Aloisio – on his 17th birthday – recorded the pin of Nordby.
"I had a whizzer on an overhook; I had his leg shelved on my hip, and I felt his lips lower, so I just 'hipped' into him," D'Aloisio noted. "I wrestled him before in the Cumberland Invitational finals on Jan. 12 and beat him, 16-6; my game plan was not to wrestle nervous and just do what I've done all year.
"I wanted to wrestle my style and not let him dictate the match."
After hesitating, he smiled, 'Yeah, this is a great birthday gift – to myself!"
For the 12th-seeded Nordby, who previously had defeated the No. 2-ranked grappler from D-II (Pilgrim's Jordan DeSisto) and the top-seed from D-I (Hendricken's Rob Lanni) to gain the final, it was a dream-come-true.
"I couldn't be any happier," he said. "This is probably the best tournament I've ever wrestled. I missed a lot of matches (seven in all) because my brother was in the Air Force, and we went to visit him in San Antonio for about a week; that's why I was seeded so low.
"I just approached the match like I had nothing to lose," he added. "I felt good in the first period, but – in the second – I got my arm caught under my left leg, and I couldn't move. That's when he flipped me with his hip."
When asked how he felt about being a state runner-up, he chuckled, "I know! It's awesome!"
Mentioned veteran mentor Gordon: "What Kris has done here is remarkable. They sure know his name now, that's for sure!"
Minutes after junior Chris Hayes delivered a pin of Mount Hope's Jon Perroni only 47 seconds into the third-place bout at 170, he shrugged, "That's been our problem in this tournament. We didn't have a lot of consolation guys get up to place third through sixth. If we had more guys in those matches, like we did last year, we'd have been in the hunt with Hendricken (for the crown).
"We just didn't get the job done," he added. "Last year, we had a lot of guys in the back scoring points for us, but we also graduated seven seniors, and they're hard to replace. But I couldn't be more pleased with our guys. They wrestled their hearts out."
After Exeter/West Greenwich junior Christian LaBrie pinned Clippers' senior co-captain Jon Maccini a mere 24 ticks into the 145 final, LaBrie's twin brother Andrew did the same to fellow co-captain Erik Travers at 152, though much later at 4:40.
In the final few seconds of the opening stanza, LaBrie threw Travers to the mat, and the latter cringed in pain; the same matman had injured his right shoulder while battling at 145 of the New England event last March.
The match was scoreless after that period, though LaBrie fashioned an early takedown before Travers sliced his deficit to 2-1 with an escape with 12 seconds left. Travers, still guarding that shoulder, eventually suffered the pin.
"I felt it almost pop out; I've done this three times so I know what it feels like," the Clipper said afterward. "I felt a grinding of the bone. It didn't hurt my wrestling; it just hurt … It was a good match. I just got caught on a stupid move. I shot at his leg when he had an overhook and he threw me.
"There is no consolation to taking second," he continued in response to his No. 3 finish at 145 last winter. "I wanted a state championship, but he won it fair and square."
The good news: He will attend the New Englands next weekend at this same site, as will most of the other top-three placements.
In the final match, East Providence senior Jonah Aurelio made mincemeat of the Scarlet Knights' Tony Tavares, pinning his shoulders down at 2:39. For the hefty Townie, it was his second straight heavyweight championship.
"Being a senior, I wanted to be successful; I wanted to win it again," he said shyly. "To me, it was all a drive to the New Englands, and then the nationals (in Virginia Beach in early April). This was just a stepping stone.
"I just wrestled hard and gave my all, but there's more in store."
That's for sure. Should Aurelio, who incredibly hasn't yielded an opponent a single point all season and now has a career record of 151-17, win five more bouts at New Englands and beyond, he would tie EP legend Matt Martin's mark of 156 career triumphs.
One other Townie found his way into the finals, sophomore Collin Cardoso at 106 pounds. He, however, dropped an 8-2 decision to the Hawks' Jason Davol.

A civil rights group and several prominent media organizations have requested the release of footage of a high-profile case involving gay marriage in California.
The American Foundation for Equal Rights (AFER) recently filed a brief calling for the full and unedited release of public trial tapes of Perry v. Schwarzenegger, a case that examined the Constitutionality of California's Proposition 8, which bans marriage between same-sex couples. FOX News, NBC News, The Associated Press, CNN and the Los Angeles Times also submitted separate briefs to request the footage.
In August of 2010, a district judge ruled that Proposition 8 violated the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals later ordered that the judgment be suspended pending a decision by the State Supreme Court.
Theodore Boutrous, the attorney for AFER, said that Americans have the right to see what happened in the district trial. He claimed that Proposition 8 proponents are "desperately anxious" to block the release of courtroom footage because they "simply have no case."
"Why should the public be denied the opportunity to see and hear what happened in a public trial in a public courtroom in a case involving the Constitutional rights of millions of people?" said Boutrous.
In their briefs, media organizations argued that the footage will enhance the public's understanding of the matter.

Masamitsu Hidaka (Japanese: 日高政光 Hidaka Masamitsu) is a director and storyboard artist for the Pokémon anime.
Hidaka was born on October 19, 1960, and went on initially to become an architect. After losing his job at an architecture design office, however, he went into the animation industry and soon became a noted director. In addition to Pokémon, he has also worked on various other series, including Mobile Suit Gundam Wing.
He directed the Pokémon anime up to the Battle Frontier arc, and he continues to be a storyboard artist.
Interviews with PokéBeach
Most notably, Hidaka has been interviewed by PokéBeach webmaster Water Pokémon Master twice[1][2] in July 2008.
He confirmed that Celebi was related to the GS Ball before it was relocated to the fourth movie, and that Brock left the show briefly during the Orange Islands arc due to fears that Americans would find him a racist stereotype. He also confirmed that Misty would not return to the main cast. In another comment made in the second interview[2], he joked that part of the reason for changing Ash's female companion from Misty to May, and then to Dawn is that "boys need a new piece of eye candy to look at every once in a while". This caused controversy among Pokémon fanswhere?, who accused him of sexism.

The video above has just popped up on YouTube, seemingly showing Microsoft taking the Smoked by Windows Phone challenge to carrier retail stores, and using it not just to show customers but more importantly carrier sales staff, that Windows Phone 7 is faster and more efficient.
I am sure no matter what else happens, this sales rep will remember that Windows Phone is faster to use, which will hopefully also translate into the same pitch used on incoming consumers.

Cancer patients, families in Westlake learn the magic of fun
Diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in January, Scott Rogers briefly took his mind off his illness Sunday by attending a magic show with his wife and two children at the Cancer Support Community in Westlake.
"The Cancer Support Community has provided excellent support for my entire family," said Rogers, of Thousand Oaks, whose family attends support groups, luncheons and other activities designed for cancer patients and their loved ones.
"This magic show is another great opportunity for our family," Rogers said. "When you have cancer, you spend a lot of time at home because you're not feeling well. The Cancer Support Community connects us to people who understand."
Rogers was among more than 50 adults and children who attended the ninth annual Daniel's Day of Magic, named for Daniel Jacoby, a former Cancer Support Community participant and board chair who had a passion for magic.
"The Cancer Support Community gave him great emotional support, pride and survival for himself and others," said Jacoby's father, David Jacoby, of Woodland Hills.
After Daniel Jacoby died from cancer in 2004 at 38 years old, the Cancer Support Community launched the annual Daniel's Day of Magic event in his memory.
"Daniel learned magic specifically to entertain children with cancer," said David Jacoby, adding that his son befriended magicians at the Magic Castle in Los Angeles who taught him the tricks.
"I have attended Daniel's Day of Magic every year since 2005 and saw the hall always full of adults and kids participating and enjoying the magic," he said. "What a great legacy for the memory of Daniel and support for us, his surviving family members."
Sunday's show was presented by David Richardson, of Los Angeles, a member of the Magic Castle who is known as Dorian the Magician.
"I believe magic is love, and love is magic," said Richardson, whose "close-up" magic tricks included turning a $1 bill into a $20 bill and pulling a live white dove out of a piece of cardboard. "Being an entertainer is a gift, why not share it?"
At the Cancer Support Community, offering an annual magic event is therapeutic on many levels, said Tricia Lethcoe, a marriage and family-therapy intern and program associate with the organization.
"The connection that is made, especially with those who are going through a similar experience, can serve as ongoing support and can strengthen other relationships," she said.
Diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011 that was followed by radiation and a double mastectomy, Sharon Kaye was filled with despair until she found support through the Cancer Support Community, she said.
"Once you find out you have cancer, you feel so alone and isolated," said Kaye, of Newbury Park, who is in remission and continues to attend support groups and participate in other activities.
She attended Daniel's Day of Magic for the first time Sunday.
"I wanted to see some of my friends that I've met through the Cancer Support Community," Kaye said. "What we've gone through has made us a family."
Nancy McIsaac, a cancer survivor, attended with two neighbors, 8-year-old Michael Freda and 11-year-old Sophia Freda.
"This social event is especially great for children, who might see their grandparents or parents suffering from cancer," McIsaac said. "It's important for them to know they can still have fun."
