"Its nice for everyone to get a start and the only one who hasn't started now is Rob Kearney. It was only precautionary for Sam not to play up to now and it is a big game for him and the team," said head coach Gatland. I think the Reds will be a little big stronger than the Force, although they have still got a number of key players missing."
Even so, Ewen McKenzie's side will have 12 Qantas Wallabies in their matchday 23 and will go into the game with absolutely nothing to lose. They have a great record at Suncorp Stadium where they have lost only once a season for the past three years and they have a number of players who will have points to prove to on-looking Wallaby coach Robbie Deans.
And the fact the game is being played in what should be a packed stadium in Brisbane at the venue of the first Test will also have a bearing on proceedings. The Lions won't want to lose their 100% record at a ground where they will return for the vital opening game against the Qantas Wallabies in two weeks time.
Gatland's 'mixing and matching' means there is a chance for Wales centre Jonathan Davies to show what he can do at inside centre and for his midfield partner Manu Tuilagi to have a run in his preferred position of outside half. There are also changes on the wing, where Tommy Bowe switches to the left to see how he runs in tandem with two-try Alex Cuthbert from the opening game.
The skipper should feel very much at home in the all-Welsh Grand Slam back row of 2012 and it will be their task to keep the home hero, Quade Cooper, quiet. That is easier said than done, but will be vital if the Lions are to make it three from three.
Cooper is in the last chance saloon as far as selection for the Qantas Wallabies squad to face the Lions is concerned and a good game, especially defensively, could see him pick up one of the final six places in Deans' group.
"I've played against Quade a few times - he is a great player with fantastic footwork. He will pose a different threat at No 10 than we've faced so far," said Warburton.
"We are always learning and we want patches when our defence is under threat because you don't want to go into the Test matches with your defence undercooked. He will definitely be an attacking threat, but that's what you want to test out your defensive system."
Cooper will be in command of a Reds backline that is only missing Will Genia - and which will have two Wallabies to call on from the bench. The 2011 Super Rugby champions love to play attacking rugby and the Lions can expect fireworks in what promises to be a fast, furious and free-flowing.
The Reds have seven players away on national duty and their biggest loss, other than scrum half genius Genia, will be in the second row. James Horwill and Rob Simmons have been replaced by the former Ulster and Ireland A lock Ed O'Donoghue and Adam Wallace-Harrison.
They will pack down behind an all-international front row and have another former Wallaby, Beau Robinson, behind them. The blonde haired openside's battle with Warburton at the breakdown will be one of the game's cameos, while this season's Super Rugby ever-present Jake Schatz will relish his battle with Toby Faletau as he tries to push his international prospects.
The first game in Brisbane was always going to be the Lions' biggest test before their return for the first Test and all the talk and signs are that we'll learn more about Gatland's side after this one than we have in the opening two romps.

'Inside' to end print publication
Beginning with the 2010-2011 fiscal year, Inside Binghamton University will no longer be printed and distributed across campus, but readers will find the same news coverage, kudos, calendar items, student profiles and more online at http://www2.binghamton.edu/news/index.html.
Originating as Intramuros in 1950, Inside Binghamton University has changed its name and its format many times. Started as a means of communication for faculty to exchange ideas, stories and news items of interest, the publication grew from a bulletin to a newspaper that serves the entire campus community.
In October 1979, the now-familiar name Inside BU appeared for the first time. It has gone through several variations: Inside SUNY-B, Inside SUNY Binghamton,
SUNY-B Inside, and the current Inside Binghamton University, and is frequently referred to as Inside or "The Inside."
Through its history, the writers, editors, photographers and designers of Inside Binghamton University have worked to produce a newspaper that educates and communicates, and has evolved with the times — and they will continue to do so as Inside Binghamton University ceases its print publication and moves solely online in a new, dynamic format.

Cry Me A River: The NBA Lockout Is Interfering With Kimmy Cakes And Kris Humphries' Reality Spinoff Plans- By Bossip Staff Categories: Ballers, Bangers, Cry Me A River
That gosh darned lockout is screwing with your Kimmy Cakes overload dolls!
Humphries and fiancee Kim Kardashian are in talks for a spinoff reality show on E!, dependent upon where the power forward signs as a free agent, Hollywoodlife.com reports.
"Kim and Kris have been filming different parts of their lives, including wedding prep, but their show hinges on Kris's contract negotiations," an insider close to the production told the Web site. "Currently he's a free agent, but it all depends on what teams he ends up with and their rules for their players and outside commitments."
Humphries is unable to sign with a team until the NBA lockout is over. He made $3.2 million last season and the Nets want him back at a reasonable price — and all indications are he wants to return.
"We have to take care of the lockout first and from there my agent is going to handle the process and lay everything out," Humphries said last month.
The couple intends to continue on E!'s "Keeping up with the Kardashians" in addition to a new show, conditions permitting.
The good news is, if the lockout continues Kris can spend all year being Kimmy Cakes' b****!
And what a job that is…

Shepard Fairey lends a hand to Earth Hour 2009… Turn out your lights!
He might be under the spotlight for crafting the ubiquitous Obama "HOPE" print and his subversive methods, but Shepard Fairey is also lending his designs to help turn out the lights for Earth Hour 2009. Another reason to dismiss the haters who have lately been attacking his work.
As their website says:
What began as a campaign to get Sydneysiders to turn their lights off, has grown to become one of the world's biggest climate change initiatives. In 2009, at 8.30pm on March 28, people around the world will turn their lights off for one hour – Earth Hour. We're aiming to reach one billion people, more than 1000 cities, all joining together in a global effort to show that its possible to take action on global warming.
So, check out the site, scope the statistics, and get involved. Also, check out this video:

A modern dictionary of Catholic terms, both common and obscure. Find accurate definitions of words and phrases.
In general, the state of being equal. There are, however, two divergent interpretations of what this means. Theism, which assumes that there is a personal God, defines equality as the capacity that all men have to reach their eternal destiny, and therefore have the right to the means required for attaining the end for which they were created. Given these postulates, theism recognizes that no two people are completely equal in their possession of anything, that whatever they have is ultimately a gift from God. The nontheistic view of humanity considers man essentially earthbound with no assured destiny beyond the grave. It therefore redefines equality in this-worldly terms, as equal access to the good things of life on earth. Inequality, then, becomes any deviation from this mathematical sameness in sharing the world's available resources for giving satisfaction to mankind.

• Final Stats | Final Stats
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - The University of Wisconsin men's soccer team's postseason run ended as No. 3 seed Michigan topped the seventh-seeded Badgers, 1-0, in the semifinal round of the 2010 Big Ten Conference Tournament at Penn State's Jeffrey Field Friday afternoon.
Big Ten Freshman of the Year Soony Saad teamed up with older brother Hamoody Saad on a give-and-go to net the game-winner for Michigan in the 78th minute. The Wolverines outshot the Badgers, 19-6, including a 6-0 advantage in shots on goal.
"The guys played their hearts out," head coach John Trask said. "They really did. I'm proud of the way they battled and the effort they put out there.
"Today it came down to the two [Saad] brothers. I said at halftime that we we wanted to try to contain them. If someone was going to beat us, we wanted to try to make [Michigan] turn to someone else but the two brothers were still good enough."
Wisconsin (4-13-3) held the Wolverines to just one goal after Michigan (13-4-3) entered the game averaging 3.5 goals per game over its last four outings. UW kept Michigan scoreless for the opening 77 minutes of the game, extending freshman Max Jentsch's (Hartland, Wis.) shutout streak to 435:34 before the Saad brothers solved the UW defense to tally the game-winner.
The Wolverines gained possession in the final third of the field, and Soony Saad found Hamoody Saad just inside the 18-yard box. Hamoody Saad flicked a quick one-two pass back to Soony Saad, who cut around the UW defense and beat Jentsch far post to net his nation-leading 17th goal of the season.
Wisconsin was not without its chances to tally the equalizer as the Badgers had four corner kicks in the game's final 10 minutes.
Freshman Joey Tennyson (Milwaukee, Wis.) found fellow rookie Luke Goodnetter (Elm Grove, Wis.) on a corner kick, but Goodnetter's header went high with 9:44 remaining. Tennyson sent in another corner in the 83rd minute, but Michigan headed it away.
Tennyson then battled in the corner and drew a foul with 5:03 to play. He joined fellow freshman Chris Prince (Naperville, Ill.) on the ball, and Prince's free kick found the head of senior Aaron Nichols (Woodstock, Ill.). UW could not capitalize though, as the header by Nichols went wide.
Nichols and the Badgers made one final push in the final 90 seconds as the senior worked the ball up the right side of the field. Wisconsin pressured but could not find the game-tying goal. UW was called for a hand ball with just seconds to play, and time expired as Michigan sent the resulting free kick up the field.
The Badgers finished Trask's first season by going 3-2-1 with four shutouts in their final six games of the season, only allowing two goals over that span. On the season, only one of Wisconsin's losses came by more than one goal; the Big Ten semifinal loss to Michigan marked UW's 12th one-goal loss of the year.
Wisconsin used a 5-4 win in a penalty kick shootout to knock off Big Ten defending champion and No. 2 seed Ohio State in Thursday's opening round. The Badgers' semifinal appearance marked the team's best postseason finish since 2003 when UW also made it to the final four of the Big Ten tournament.
Michigan will face the winner of the second semifinal game between No. 1 seed Indiana and No. 4 seed Penn State. The Big Ten tournament championship game is slated for 11 a.m. (CT) Sunday.

16-year-old pronounced dead at scene; 12-year-old questioned in incident
BREAKING: Police have confirmed that the 12-year-old involved in the shooting death of his brother in Dorval will appear in youth court within the hour to face charges.
© Olivier Laniel
A 16-year-old boy was killed after being shot in the head at home in Dorval Monday evening; police questioned a 12-year-old bot who was in the home with him.
A 16-year-old Dorval resident is dead after he was shot in the head Monday evening in Dorval. The incident occurred about 5:30 p.m. when a neighbor heard a shot fired in a home on Hamilton Place, a small street just off Thorncrest Avenue in the city's northwest sector, said Montreal police spokesman Const. Simon Delorme.
Attempts to save the boy at the scene were not successful and he was pronounced dead on scene, Delorme added. Details of the incident are not yet clear – "investigators are still going through various hypotheses to figure out exactly what happened," Delorme said -- and no motive has yet been uncovered, he said.
Police, though, questioned a 12-year-old, who was also in the home when the shooting occurred, and are mulling charges ranging from unlawful use of a firearm to manslaughter. Police were unable to disclose the caliber of the gun, but said it did come from inside the home. At press time, police were unable to say if the gun was registered or not.
One of the 16-year-old's parents was transported to the hospital for shock. Check out www.westislandchronicle.com for updates as the story progresses.

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- Michael Mauti intently watched every drill from underneath the brim of his white baseball cap on Friday, putting himself through the mental paces as his new Minnesota Vikings teammates sprinted around him at the start of their rookie minicamp.
The seventh-round draft pick from Penn State was the only one of 68 players on hand who didn't practice at all, though he did jog a bit and stepped through a few drills -- about the most he can do as he continues to recover from the third knee reconstruction surgery of his young career.
"I'm sprinting. I'm doing some light agility stuff. So, it's not like I'm limping around here," Mauti said. "I feel great. But at the same time, it's all about being patient and going through the process. But it is a little tempting to get out there and run around, for sure."
Mauti, 23, tore his right ACL during fall practice in 2009 and missed what would have been his sophomore season. He tore his left ACL four games into the 2011 season, then re-tore it on Nov. 17, at a time he was playing well enough some projected him as a second- or third-round pick.
"That's as good as I've felt in any season," Mauti said. "That's as healthy as I've ever felt, and I feel like that was the best I've ever played. I'm just looking to carry over that into the next level here, and I think that these trainers are going to help me get there."
Mauti arrived for the three-day camp on Thursday night and has spent time discussing his rehabilitation process and program with head athletic trainer Eric Sugarman. Asked if he intends to be ready for the start of training camp in late July, Mauti said, "Absolutely. That's my goal."
He won't be on the field for any of the Vikings' upcoming organized team activity practices or next month's mandatory minicamp, though, putting him in a challenging position to make the 53-man roster, much less contribute in his first year.
That didn't stop coach Leslie Frazier from mentioning Mauti's name as a possibility for the Vikings' middle linebacker job, along with Erin Henderson, Audie Cole and Tyrone McKenzie. Mauti said he's studying the weakside spot, too, but mainly focusing on the mike.
"He's no question behind as a rookie, to miss all the reps that he's going to miss between now and training camp," Frazier said. "It makes it tough. But he's capable of catching up. He'll have to."
Crash course
Fifth-round pick Jeff Locke made a trip to the Metrodome to punt in front of special teams coordinator Mike Priefer, who figures to give general manager Rick Spielman an assessment after this three-day camp about whether Locke should move forward unopposed.
"It went really well," Locke said. "It was cool to see (the Metrodome) for the first time, and I thought I punted really well."
A rare May snowstorm forced the Vikings to move Friday's practices into the Winter Park fieldhouse, where the ceiling is too low to punt. So, Priefer took Locke downtown for a workout the rookie said included all the basics -- directional punting both ways, inside the 20s, backed up, etc.
During the afternoon practice, Priefer worked with Locke on holding, another duty that has belonged to incumbent punter Chris Kluwe.
"You just want to make sure he can handle some of the situations we're going to put him in," Frazier said.
Last year, Priefer put rookie place-kicker Blair Walsh through similar paces during rookie camp, and the Vikings cut veteran Ryan Longwell the next day. Kluwe told 1500 ESPN on Tuesday he wants to compete to keep his job, but if they fully intend to go with Locke, "then I would much rather be cut early and have a chance to find a job somewhere else."
That decision could come as soon as Monday, when Kluwe -- like Locke, a former UCLA standout -- and Spielman are expected to meet again.
"I don't want to be too specific," Frazier said, "but there are some things we want to be able to look at with (Locke) and just see if he can get them done."
Good start
Cornerback Xavier Rhodes didn't waste any time flashing his first-round ability.
On the first rep of one-on-ones, Rhodes intercepted undrafted rookie James Vandenberg's pass for practice-squad holdover LaMark Brown.
"I was just ready to come play, man," Rhodes said. "I'm a born football player. I've been playing this game since I was young. I just want to get on the field and show everybody I can play."
Rhodes played left cornerback with the No. 1 defense during team drills, with Bobby Felder -- one of nine non-rookies participating in the camp -- on the right.
"He did some things (Friday) in this first practice that really open your eyes," Frazier said of Rhodes. "I think he has the game that fits what the league is becoming. Now, it's a matter of fast does he mature and how confident can he be when he lines up in that first ballgame?"
Nicked up
Former Gophers cornerback Michael Carter had a decent showing during the Vikings' morning practice but sat out most of the afternoon session and limped off the field.
Carter is one of 34 players participating in camp on a tryout basis. The list includes three other ex-Gophers: tight end John Rabe and linebackers Keanon Cooper and Lee Campbell.
"It's just about getting the plays down," Carter said before the injury. "You have to be in shape for this."
Carter said his cousin, former Gophers and Vikings safety Tyrone Carter, helped him condition in the offseason.
"He just knows the game," Carter said. "He knows the down and distances, splits, difference in hashes. I just have to focus more on NFL plays and concepts."
Quick hits
• Undrafted free agent Colin Anderson (Furman) said playing tight end is "what I'm here for," but he's also one of at least two experienced long snappers in camp, along with tryout player Scott Albritton (Colorado State).
• Sixth-round pick Jeff Baca (UCLA) played with the first-team offense at right guard and got reps at center, too. Seventh-round pick Travis Bond, who played guard at North Carolina, was at right tackle with the first string.
• Felder, Cordarrelle Patterson, Greg McCoy, Jerodis Williams and tryout player Duron Carter all worked as punt returners.
• The Vikings have two more practices on Saturday and one on Sunday before wrapping the rookie camp. However, those sessions are closed to reporters.
• The 90-man roster is full, meaning if the Vikings want to sign any of the 34 players trying out this weekend, they'll have to cut someone. "It's a tall task, but it happens," Frazier said. "Marcus Sherels is a great example of it a few years ago. It can happen."
• After camp ends, rookies have a week to return home. They can rejoin the offseason strength and conditioning program on May 13. OTAs begin two weeks after that.

John Charles "Jack" Major, CC, QC (born February 20, 1931) is a Canadian jurist and was a puisne justice on the Supreme Court of Canada from 1992 to 2005.[1]
Early life and education[edit]
Born in Mattawa, Ontario, Major received a Bachelor of Commerce degree from Loyola College in 1953 and a Bachelor of Laws degree from the University of Toronto Faculty of Law in 1957.

On January 5, 2006, he rejoined the Calgary office of Bennett Jones LLP, the firm with whom he practised before his judicial career.[2] On March 8, 2006, he was appointed by Prime Minister Stephen Harper to lead a public inquiry into the Air India Flight 182 bombing and the resulting trials.

Jack Del Rio: 'Lot of pride' in finally being able to knock off Tom Brady, Bill Belichick
|01.28.14 at 2:27 pm ET
Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio said Tuesday that he "took a lot of pride" in being able to execute a successful game plan against the Patriots that allowed Denver to come away with the AFC championship.
Prior to this year's the AFC title clash, Del Rio had struggled against Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. The quarterback had won all seven matchups while completing more than 70 percent of his passes and throwing 17 touchdowns and no picks. But in Denver's 26-16 win, Brady was limited in the first three quarters by the Broncos — he didn't throw a touchdown pass until late in the fourth quarter, and the majority of his production came with the game out of hand. He ended 24-for-38 for 277 yards passing and a touchdown.
"It was good. We had a good plan — we went out and executed a good plan and got to advance, and that's what it was all about," Del Rio said. "Clearly, the combination of Tom and Bill [Belichick] has been a very productive combination and one that I hadn't seen a lot of success against. I took a lot of pride in the fact that we were able to put together a good plan, go out there and execute, play well and advance."

Finance, Accounting, and Special Projects at ShopKeep.com Inc.
ShopKeep is looking for a Finance, Accounting, and Special Projects leader to join our team that is revolutionizing how retailers and customers interact. This posistion will help lead all financial analysis, accounting, and reporting for the business. You will be our controller and count every penny. You will also work closely with our ~40 other team members, especially the operations team, but report directly into the Company's COO & Co-Founder. This will be a very high growth position within the company.
About Us
Our company is at the forefront of the quickly developing cloud based technology software space for small and medium businesses. We develop and distribute software which packages retail transactions with business reporting tools and superior customer service into one compact and beautiful SaaS product.
In simple terms, we are revolutionizing the traditional POS business. For more than a century, these clunky boxes have taken up valuable counter space at bars, restaurants and coffee shops, and have served as a costly impediment to small business ownership. They are notorious for their lack of reliability, their shady supply chain and their DMV-like customer service.
This market is ripe for disruption, and ShopKeep continues to remain ahead of the game (that's where you come in). We are changing the way local businesses leverage technology. Our cloud-based system allows merchants to work offline, create in-depth sales and inventory analysis, and chuck the register for a visually pleasing, easy-to-use interface. Even better, our product is much less cash intensive for small businesses.
And the evidence that we are on the right track. Our growth is staggering. Our customer list keeps growing. We are very well funded by some of the world's largest and most respected VC funds. What we are missing is an exceptional person to help us lead efforts in accounting, financial analysis, reporting, and generally supporting our leadership team with unique projects impacting this rapidly growing business.
This is a dynamic role, but one that is based on leading and continuing to develop our growing financial function. Your key responsibilities will include, but will not be limited to:
Please reply with a cover letter - in order to be considered, your sample must also include the answer to the following question (so we know you care enough to read this description and find the answer on our website): Where does one go in the ShopKeep POS system to create items, receive orders, and set triggers to notify merchants to reorder stock?
Compensation will be market and commensurate with experience but will include amazing big company benefits.
ShopKeep is moving from startup to name brand by consistently delivering on its big ambitions. Merchants LOVE us (they put in the capital letters) and want our products. This is a fun place to work - we have a beer fridge and many goodies consistently sent to us by our customers. If you want the chance to put your signature on a product that will change the way people do business, join us.
ShopKeep is an equal opportunity employer.

POTSDAM – Four in a row.
The Chateaugay girls varsity soccer team collected its fourth consecutive Section 10 title on Thursday, defeating the Parishville-Hopkinton Panthers for the third time during the 2012 fall Northern Athletic Conference season to earn the Class D crown with a 3-0 victory.
The win by the lady Bulldogs propels them into state play, hosting the Section 7, Class D champion Elizabethtown-Lewis Lions at noon on Saturday, right back at Potsdam High Schools turf field.
With the victory, Chateaugay also kept its record perfect for the year at 19-0-0 heading into the state playoff game while the Lions enter the contest with a 12-6-1 mark. Elizabethtown-Lewis defeated the seven-time defending champion Chazy Eagles 2-0 in the Section 7 title match.
It didnt take the Chateaugay girls long to establish which of the two squads was the dominant one on Thursday, as the Bulldogs weathered a brief offensive flurry by the Panthers following the opening whistle, without allowing a shot on goal.
The lady Bulldogs broke out of their defensive zone and, seemingly, scored the games first goal just six minutes, 18 seconds in, but the marker was waved off on an offside call.
The call didnt deter the CCS girls as they came right back and launched one off the post, then sent three consecutive shots wide of the intended target.
Chateaugay finally ended the scoreless deadlock just past the 10-minute mark as co-defensive player of the year Hannah Cook stole a ball at midfield, raced down the right wing and sent a left-footed shot past P-H goalie Marlee Wilson. Cooks unassisted tally came at 10:07.
Parishville-Hopkinton regrouped and took the ball back up the field for its best scoring chance of the game as a foul was called 25-yards out, which resulted in a direct kick for the Panthers. Chateaugay goalie Makayla Fleury had little trouble deflecting the ball over the crossbar to maintain the shutout.
That was a real big save, stated CCS Coach Steve Lang. Makayla did a nice job. She was ready for the kick and had little trouble getting to the right spot.
It was all Chateaugay after that, as the Bulldogs kept applying offensive pressure and solved Wilson for the second time in the opening half with 21:26 left before the break.
Co-offensive MVP Alexis Beach received a sweet feed from Stephanie Whyte. Whyte stole the ball from a Parishville-Hopkinton player 20 yards out, slid the ball to Beach, who did the rest. Beach rolled to her right and put the shot just inside of the near post for a 2-0 Chateaugay lead.
The Bulldogs didnt stop there and kept up their offensive pressure with the Panthers dodging a bullet with under 30 seconds left in the half, as Chateaugay again came close to scoring, but sent another shot just over the crossbar.
Chateaugay kept up its offensive onslaught on the P-H defense to open up the second half, with Katie Beach sending a header just wide as co-offensive MVP Courtney Boyea lifted a crossing pass to the right spot for the younger Beach sister.
Chateaugays Courtney Yando also launched a blast from 22 yards out, but that shot was just over the top of the crossbar. The Bulldogs got the insurance goal they were looking for as Danielle Charland sent Cook in on another break with a nice lead pass at midfield. Cook, a Chateaugay junior, outraced a pair of P-H defenders down the field and beat Wilson with a low liner to the far corner.
That third goal took a lot of pressure off us, pointed out Coach Lang. Its easier for a team to stay in the game down just two goals than it is three. If they score, then its only a one-goal game. Fortunately for us, that scenario never came into play.
That didnt stop the lady Bulldogs as they came close to scoring once again, as Katie Beach rattled a shot off the post with just over 17 minutes remaining in the season for the Panthers.
Just as we thought, they (Parishville-Hopkinton) didnt quit and they did their best to come after us, said Lang. They are a well-coached team and Evan (P-H Coach Harper) always puts a quality team on the field. They are always well prepared.
Its tough, very tough, to beat a team three times in one season, but this group of girls worked extremely hard all season long to get to this point, summarized the Chateaugay coach. We got to where we wanted to be, back in the state playoffs.
Backstopping the Section 10 title-game win was Fleury, who made a total of seven saves during the victory, but faced only the one difficult shot via the direct kick. The other six saves were rollers that were sent from afar, as the Bulldog defenders did their jobs and kept the Panthers away from point-blank range.
We came in and wanted to limit their quality chances, and we succeeded, Lang added. I cant say enough about how well we played defensively, not just one or two girls, but the entire team.
The Chateaugay girls will face the Elizabethtown-Lewis Lions at noon on Saturday at Potsdam High School. The winner of Saturdays contest will advance to the state semifinals at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 17 at Thompkins-Cortland Community College in Dryden (east of Ithaca).
Coach Harper, who once led three Parishville-Hopkinton teams to the NYS Final Four, credited the quality of the Lady Bulldogs and his Panther contingent.
We had a very good team and they worked hard. They were a very good group to coach, said Harper.
They would rank right up there with our final four teams of the eighties, he concluded.
In the all-NAC West Division Class D boys soccer final Thursday night at Potsdam Central, Jon Sloan finished off a play set up by Mike Guardino23 minutes into the second half and the Bulldogs made it stand for their first-ever Section10 title.
Chris Power made 13 saves backstopping the shutout while Zane Mono made 10 saves for the Pirates (11-4).
The Bulldogs improved to 11-3-2 with the win and will now take on Section 7 champion Chazy on Saturday in the state Class D quarter-finals starting at 2 p.m.

Saginaw, Michigan: place of the sauk
November 13, 2006
place of the sauk, photo by gsgeorge.
Today's post springs from a critique by Lawrence Drouillard of a photo of Saginaw that we posted this spring
Now, I happen to like that photo quite a lot, but it's certainly not a photo that shouts "move yourself or your business to Saginaw or just drop by for a visit" as a photo like this one by Geoffrey George does. (view larger). Since the other picture is the first thing that pops up on a search for "saginaw michigan photo", we probably better address that.
The Saginaw Library details the history of Saginaw and says that there is archaeological evidence Paleo-Indian nomads in the Saginaw Valley from 12,000 years ago (some of the most valuable archaeological sites in Michigan are in the area). Woodland cultures including the mound-building Hopewell Indians settled along the Saginaw River. According to the library, name Saginaw is derived from an Ojibway term "O-Sag-e-non" or "Sag-in-a-we" that means "to flow out" and probably refers to the outflow of the Saginaw River into the Saginaw Bay. However, there are also those who believe that Saginaw is derived from Sagina'we', signifying 'the country or place of the Sauk'.
The library's history goes on to explain how the American Fur Company established a trading post on the west side of the Saginaw River after the War of 1812, and how Saginaw City was founded by Norman Little in 1836. Both the article and Wikipedia's entry on Saginaw, Michigan detail how Saginaw's easy access to waterways served to fuel growth as Michigan's massive white pine forests were felled and shipped around the nation in the 1800s. Soon after the close of the lumbering era, a new industry: the auto industry.
In Saginaw, the Jackson, Wilcox and Church Company produced carriages to be drawn by horses, and later produced components used in motor vehicles. This was eventually acquired by General Motors and formed the basis for its Steering Gear division. Additionally, General Motors established foundries and other manufacturing facilities in Saginaw. The early development of automotive production within Saginaw would set the course for the future economic circumstances of the City. (click for photo from the early automotive industry in Saginaw)
Modern day Saginaw has faced major challenges due to manufacturing job loss, but community leaders are actively seeking new industries through initiatives such as those listed on The Saginaw Valley. You will also want to explore the area through the Saginaw Chamber of Commerce, the Saginaw Valley Convention & Visitors Bureau and the City of Saginaw, Michigan.
You can see where this picture was taken (along with many more) on the Flickr photo map of Saginaw, MI and also see more photos from the past and modern day in the Saginaw, Michigan group on Flickr. Please also feel free to add your own thoughts on Saginaw or links to more information in the comments!

I lost my father on Sept 15, he was 89. His family, the Richters lived on Michigan Ave in a grand old home that is still there. There are stories about playing by the river, photos,things that connect me forever to Saginaw Michigan, although I was raised in the Detroit Area. My great grandfather built several homes for his sons and the family homestead is said to have the first elevator and vacuum system in Saginaw. Thank you for sharing. Those times will never return but we can carry on the stories for our families

I was born and raised in Saginaw in 1977. Me and my family lived on Hill street.And many other places.I went to school and I attended Arthord Hill High school.At the age of 17 I moved to Indiana to go to Job corps. Of course I stayed.But I always know where my home is.I still have freinds and I have a sister who still lives there.I come and see changes on the internet,and some of the pic's remind me of home.Some places have not changed.But some have,and it is the same Old downtown Saginaw.Thank-you for the memories of home.
November 26, 2008 at 5:00 pm
Lar, I just read your report on our home town and our father and grandfather. It was great! We have much to be proud of despite our shortcomings in this life. As your younger (5 min.) twin brother, I truely encourage you to continue to post such interesting information for all to read and wonder about. Love you brother.

Saginaw was said at one time to have had the name Conchradum and later Sankinon. Even later it was Saguinan. I like the origin of the names as meaning the place where there is a "pouring out". It seems also that Saginaw Bay was called Tekari-endoindi and Karegnondi, which I believe are the same word. River mouth in Huron is "arient" while rock is "ar[i]end". I think Karegondi means at the river's mouth. The early people in Sansan's map of 1656 were the Ariatoeronons. I think an "n" is missing, and these people are the people of the river's mouth. As to Conchradum and Sankinan, in French and Latin an "echanson" is a cupbearer or a person who pours out a liquid. The word comes from "shank" the bone once used as a spout. In German the word "schenken" meant to pour out and forms their word for tavern. The Chippewa word "sagi" means river mouth, and "siginan" means to pour out as per the Baraga Chippewa Dictionary.

I just happened to come across this website in my quest to find some photos of Saginaw that could be shared with some folks in Manitoba, Canada who were doing a collage on Saginaw as a class project. This is a WONDERFUL site! Thanks for all your work in putting it together!

Hi Larry,
i was just exploring "Drouillard" history on the web, and came across your old post. Yes, I'm Chrissy, your first cousin from Lakewood, Ohio. Yes, Grandpa Drouillard still holds a special place in my heart. His stories of the Great Lakes were often told around our dining room table after a family dinner. His corn meal pancakes were especially memorable. I remember sitting in his comfy lap while he did crosswords and watched Red Skelton or boxing (his favorites). Your Aunt Ellen is still very active in Bloomington, Indiana- ask Jeannie or Richard. I hope you are well. I didn't know you had worked in the automotive industry for so many years. So sorry our families did not remain connected.
September 3, 2014 at 11:47 pm
Thanks Larry and Al for the good write up of your family in Saginaw. Why not write about your dad's scouting days and other
Adventures? Aunt Ellen

Abstraction for unification of sender and senderFuture for later reply
abstract class Channel[T] = { def !(msg: T): Unit } def channel: Channel = { if (senderFuture.isDefined) { new Channel[Any] { val future = senderFuture.get def !(msg: Any) = future completeWithResult msg } } else if (sender.isDefined) { new Channel[Any] { val client = sender def !(msg: Any) = client ! msg } } else IllegalActorStateException("No channel available") }
So the server does, say
replyTo = channel
(or put it in a queue, or whatever) and then later uses it like this
replyTo ! response
just like sender would be used in a direct reply in fire-and-forget
"replyTarget ! response" would be equivalent to "reply(response)"
(the implementation of replyTarget is, of course, very similar to that
of reply).
MsgTarget is identical to Lift's SimpleActor - maybe better called
SimpleActorRef or so?
on 2010-07-13 03:17 *By Heiko Seeberger
Better call MsgTarget Channel. That's almost aligned with Scala's OutputChannel.
on 2010-07-13 07:06 *By Jonas Bonér
Description changed from abstract class MsgT... to abstract class Chan...
Agree. It should be called Channel. Changed the sample.

Our Vision
Our Vision is to help people feel good, look good and get more out of life with brands and services that are good for them and good for others. We will inspire people to take small everyday actions that can add up to a big difference for the world. We will develop new ways of doing business that will allow us to double the size of our company while reducing our environmental impact.
Enthused with Vitality
Vitality is at the heart of everything we do. It's in our brands, our people and our values.
Vitality means different things to different people. Some see it as energy, others view it more broadly as a healthy state of body and mind – of feeling alive.
Whatever their personal definition, millions of people around the world use our products daily to add Vitality to their lives - whether that's through feeling great because they've got shiny hair and a brilliant smile, keeping their homes fresh and clean, or by enjoying a great cup of tea, satisfying meal or healthy snack.
Ever since the 19th Century when William Hesketh Lever stated that the company's mission was "to make cleanliness commonplace; to lessen work for women; to foster health and contribute to personal attractiveness, that life may be more enjoyable and rewarding for the people who use our products," Vitality has been at the heart of our business.
Vitality defines what we stand for: our values, what makes us different, and how we contribute to society. It's the common thread that links our brands and it's central to the unique way we operate around the world.
Health & nutrition
Our Vitality mission commits us to growing our business by addressing health and nutrition issues. We focus on priorities including children and family nutrition, cardiovascular health and weight management.
Inside & out
Our culture also embodies Vitality. Adding Vitality of life requires the highest standards of behaviour towards everyone we work with, the communities we touch and the environments on which we have an impact.
The growing demand for more Vitality in life provides us with a huge opportunity for growth. The way we work and the products we develop are shaped by consumer trends, along with the need to help raise health and hygiene standards in both the developing and industrialised regions of the world.

Gisele Bündchen and her sandy butt on the June/July cover of Vogue Paris was merely a precursor to the requisite lengthy editorial inside the mag.
Gisele does a variety of things (frolic in the water, play with dumbells, and drink green juice) in a variety of swimwear (monokinis, bikinis, and sometimes just bikini bottoms). The editorial, entitled "Perfect Girl", was styled by Emmanuelle Alt and photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. So yeah, it's pretty perfect.
Okay, now look at the pics:

Subaru WRX Concept First Look
This car will destroy the Germans in this segment!
Hope the blue rendering is closer - it's grunty. The grey version is typical Japanese crappy Lexus styling. Only Japanese can appreciate that style. Certainly very few people buy the new Lexus for their style (rather - more for their new found exciting ability and reliability presumably).
Lexus seems to have a lack of cohesion their style - something the Germans do so well. Their cars look light and unsubstantial whereas the German look chunky and tough and like they are meant to protect you if you overshoot a tight turn on the autobahn and flip it into the bushes at 120mph.
But this is a step in the right direction. If they look to their past for inspiration, they would have some better luck though. Some Japanese designs of 30 years ago were beautiful.
I'm certain, this new RC will be amazing performer otherwise though. I suppose they deserve credit for sticking with that priority.
Release this car and Im trading in my 2005 C6. I need a change and Im not a fan of the C7 styling.
that rendering of the grey coupe is sweet, can I get some AWD with that please.
Love the effort..
Great effort!
I don't think the M4 has anything to worry about. As ugly as BMW styling has been over the years, the RC is even less desirable.
Cayman S for the win.
just when i thought Lexus was going to be consistent with their design language, and now they're going to deviate with this??..... it's more on par with an Accord Coupe
Lovein dis hope it will come with a sedan so we can feel that IS F again but now with more power and better looks it will wipe the M4 sedan. Cool
oh my my myyy! Lexus! Lexus! yes baby! this is the one! finally a true vehicle emerges! who else can compare? BMW and their cross eyed kidney grilles? I'll take the lexus at least I'll know it will run well past 200k milse and still look good every mile in between...It's so 2030!
The RC and RC-F looks to be a fantastic car. Reading through the comments made my head hurt, how come people are still mad about the LFA?
just a turbo 2.0 and starts at over 40k? why is mercedes the only one who gets it? unless this thing comes loaded to the gills stock its probably a good 5k over what a sane human being would pay.
Is that slot in the hood where I put the coin in to start it?
Maybe it's the fact that the last Supra was such an awesome car, or maybe it's the reputation of top notch build quality and reliability that Toyota earned during the 80's and 90's (not sure if it's still true today). Maybe it's that this vehicle is a slightly more obscure choice than the M3s and AMGs everyone pines for. I'm not sure what it is, but something has me very excited about this car. Maybe it's just the sound that came out of the exhaust of the LFA and the hope that this sounds similar.
The artist rendition reminds a lot of the 7th gen toyota celica (especially the hood and scoop) hopefully these moves by toyota will inspire them to resurrect the Celica name soon
looks like the subaru/scion, only with real balls!
Being that I will be attending CCS in Detroit this year I'm really excited to see this concept. (never thought I'd say that about a Toyota) I just hope they keep a very strong LF-LC influence.
Glad to hear that Lexus is serious about their sports cars. The 10% bump in power sounds good to me. Hope they sufficiently revise their transmission to be able provide faster acceleration, the IS F's only serious weakness for me in terms of performance.
And thenof course there's the BRZ with a turbo slapped on a stock engine turning 11 second 1/4 miles at 127 mph for $30-something.
At 100k, the top spec version of this car will be competing with M5's, base 911's, and the GTR. Even with a few carbon fiber parts, something tells me this car will weigh well over 3500lbs. That being said, 455hp and 401ft-lbs will not be nearly enough to compete. Lexus needs some forced induction, a higher redline with more power (like the LFA), or a lower price.
What's REALLY going to happen is this will cost $65-70k, then the 2016 Lexus SC will start at $75k, and it's SCF will cost over $100k, going against cars like the M6
(The RC will be a 2015 model, then the SC comes in 2015 as a 2016 model.)
The two coupes definately look good. But that four door is butt ugly.
Who else new BLACK DYNAMITE was gonna be all over this story, huh? TOYODA
Anyone who's anyone that knows about cars would not spend 400k on a Lexus. I'm sorry but if I'm gonna spend that much I'd expect my Vehical do a better performance even a GTR can beat it
Ill take the brown one with a 4.8L V-10 and AWD .
@rotostar1 @Nate.
So what you're saying is there should be no M5's, no XFRS's no Corvette ZR1's no E63 AMG'S no RS6's etc etc the list goes on and on...yea I'd rethink that one...
Wait....there's a 40K version and a 100k version??? that makes no sense! I would never pay 100k for a car and have another one that is 40K being driven around. I think that must be a misprint by the journalist of the article.
Yea. If your going to charge over $100k it better have north of 550hp lol. And if I do pay $100k for a car I don't want a $40k version of it. I want to feel like I got one of a kind. Don't want to see many versions of it. Like paying $2 million for a Bugatti then they have a $50k version of it with a 150hp engine lol. I don't want to see many affordable version of a high priced car!!!!
I'm eager to see the spec on this thing.
I like the idea of a Lexus coupé, but I'm really getting annoyed with automakers' decisions to separate coupés from their 4-doored twins. Really. I understand that coupés are meant to be sportier than sedans, but in the past I don't see how it has hurt the market to have them share names (M3, anyone?). The A5 and A4 look very much alike, especially with those new headlights (which I find messed up the A5 more than anything), and the 4 series looks like the 3 series coupé it is. Still, I can't wait to see this one, seeing as I really like the new look of the IS. But "Racing Coupé" just sounds stupid.
@faire you don't know style! the Lexus RC is the winner!
@faire You must open your eyes to appreciate the new RC, instead of stumbling around in the dark.
@mlivshiz take a listen to the "spy video" of the RC testing at the nurburgring http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXdj7MocNIU
MT didn't convert the money into US Dollars (This is an Australian story). This will cost $65k or so here.
The Lexus SCF will be over $100k, competing with the M6 in 2015.
@ishliSS ooookkkk....?
@big j
Except at Nurburgring, kid.
And when the GTR first came out, before they fixed it for the 37th time, LFA beat it from a dig too.
The one trick pony didn't even win with it's one trick!
Haters are not winners. I guess that makes you a double threat.....
@big j Dude, what are you even talking about, the article mention nothing of a 400k Lexus. The 375k Lexus LFA has been sold out for over a year and has stopped being produced for months now. Get with the program.
I guess the Corvette should have gone out of business 5 years ago, huh?
The RCF won't cost $100k. They made a mistake with the currency exchange. This story originated in Australia.....
@rotostar1 This car is not going to cost anything close to 100k, even in it's most expensive form... More like 35k to 65k top spec.
@StylinRed @mlivshiz Doesn't sound quite as guttural as the LFA, but then again, it's going to cost roughly 20% the price of the LFA. I think this is going to be an awesome car. Thanks for the post.
@Black Dynamite @warrenwed2013 1.00 AUD = .92 USD, so that means it should cost about 92k, according to MT and current conversion rates.
I don't know how anyone can be crowing about a $375k carbon fiber car that weighs 3600 lbs vs. the rest of the market - especially when a metal AWD GTR with 4 seats only weighs 3800 lbs. Let's face it, whatever you may like about Toyota, the LFA was a day late and a dollar short. Overweight, underpowered, crappy single clutch trans, etc. But hey, it sounded great. As for the video, the actual MT specs say the GT-R smokes the LFA. http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/exotic/1107_2012_lexus_lfa_quick_test/
@Black Dynamite @big j Actually the GTR was a little quicker off the line and to 60mph in that video, but yes, the LFA did reel it in eventually and in the long run would simply walk away from the GTR because the LFA has a higher top speed. The newly updated GTR's are much quicker off the line, but in my book the LFA is still a much better car. Why? ANYONE can make a GTR like car. EVERY major auto company has the money and technology to do it, but it takes much more to go through the troubles of creating a LFA. So yes, I would take the slightly "slower" and much more expensive Lexus if I could.
Agreed...article stated that it will be a 4-series competitor, in that case the 40k-65k sounds about where they will be priced. The F model to go head to head with the M4....should be interesting. If Toyota kept the weight down it should be competitive.....especially since all the "M-car puriists" are scoffing at BMW for switching forced induction. I for one don't give a rats......this V-8 coupe could make some noise, no pun...
@warrenwed2013 @Black Dynamite Cars cost more in Australia. A BRZ starts at $37,000 Australian dollars.
akira iida reckoned the LFA could do the ring in 7:23
"can't keep up with a 458", really? there was only a 0.17 sec difference there and it beat the 458 at el toro (top gear US), and your not making a legit comparison by comparing a sport auto test to a manufacturer test, let me help:
aventador, veyron, one-77 and SLR are all heavier than the LFA, why aren't you bashing them?
tested price
LFA: 375k
F12: 404k
tell me why you aren't bashing ferrari for their price or bashing the pagani huyara for getting beaten by a 458 on anglesey curcuit?
the pricier a car gets the less of a factor preformance will acount for
read chris harris's review of the LFA (edmunds) and read his review of the NE (scans on toyotanations if i'm not mistaken) and last but not least listen to what kelly blue book has to say about it in his review
@BlackDynamite. @church123
The base Lexus LFA has a Nurburgring lap time of 7:38 and the LFA with the Nurburgring Package has a time of 7:14.64. The times for the other cars are as follows:
2010 Dodge Viper ACR, 7:12.13
2013/2014 Nissan GT-R, 7:18.6
2012 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, 7:19.63
Ferrari 458 Italia, 7:32.92
The McLaren doesn't seem to have a track time for the Nurburgring that I can find.
1. So you defend your ignorance. What a surprise.
2. Slower at Nurburgring.
3. If these cars are so fast, where are their Nurburgring lap times?
@Black Dynamite @church123 If this is a double post apologies. As for you BD, hatred and ignorance? Can't play that card here homey cause the facts are against you.
1. Every magazine that weighed the LFA found it just under 3600 lbs - deal with it.
2. The Gallardo and 458 are $200k cars. And faster.
3. The LFA couldn't even keep up with a Vette at Laguna Seca, or a 458, or MP4-12C, or Viper.....
You can't refute the criticisms so you bluster and obfuscate. Fail.
Thanks for the hatred and ignorance, but now time for some facts to balance you out.
1. The Lexus LFA doesn't weigh anywhere near 3600 lbs. If you want a vehicles specs, why wouldn't you go to the vehicle maker?
2. The LFA had similar power to the Gallardo and 458. Are they underpowered?
3. Exactly when will the GTR, or Vette ZR1, or Porsche GT3 RS beat the LFA around Nurburgring?
If the LFA was so bad, what does that make them?

Pointe Shoe Guide
Pointe Shoe Guide
A dancer's love affair with her pointe shoes, though it may seem silly to an outsider, is very real. Every dancer's reputation depends on her shoes never letting her down. They must help her balance and allow her to roll up with ease and down with control. In the decade since Pointe debuted, manufacturers have addressed many pointe shoe challenges. Now dancers can spend a little more time focusing on their technique instead of worrying about their shoes.
Challenge: So much time spent breaking in shoes
Solutions: Bloch has updated the paste they use in their Axis and B-Morph shoes with a formula called TMT technology. It accelerates the break-in process, allowing the dancer to mold the shoes to the contours of her foot. This spring, Capezio introduced Simone, which uses a new paste formula that forms to the foot quickly without sacrificing longevity.
Challenge: Short life span
Solutions: In 1993, Gaynor Minden began to explore how space-age technology could produce a longer-lasting shoe. In the past 10 years, the company has reformulated its elastomeric shanks and boxes to accommodate a greater range of foot types with more options like shank strength, vamp length and heel width.
The recently patented Flyte pointe shoe by Inspire has a shank made of polymer compounds of varying strengths, giving it both rigidity and flexibility. The use of polymers means that the shank will last up to five times longer than a traditional shoe. It is made of three separate components: box, shank and a removable outer shoe that can be replaced without the need for an entirely new pair.
Bloch's Axis and B-Morph shoes have a curved composite insole, made of materials that make it virtually unbreakable.
Challenge: Finding the right fit
Solutions: The Heel Ovals Kit from Prima Soft includes hypoallergenic pads that can be used as heel grips or to prevent narrow heels from twisting in the shoe. Their Make It Fit Kit helps dancers who have one foot that is bigger than the other. Gaynor Minden has introduced wafer-thin removable urethane liners that expand and contract to prevent the dancer from sliding in the box. They also designed a Sleekfit option for feet that are broad at the metatarsal and narrow in the heel.
Challenge: Noisy shoes
Solutions: The new Jewels Collection by Russian Pointe uses less fabric, making the shoes lighter and quieter. Grishko's new model, Miracle, has an insert that absorbs sound. The "Whisper-Toe" of Sansha's Gloria 601 uses a piece of PORON, a high-quality shock-absorbing material that makes the shoe almost inaudible.
Challenge: Sweaty, blistered toes
Solutions: Grishko's Miracle model has medicinal silver nanoparticles in the insole and box that act as natural antiseptics and protect the skin from injuries like blisters. Capezio's Aria shoe has a So Suede lining that absorbs moisture, reducing foot odor and retarding mildew and fungus growth.
Challenge: Constantly changing needs
Solutions: Working closely with professional dancers, Freed of London tracks changes in choreography and shoe requirements. Their latest introduction, the Classic Pro, is handmade with the traditional "turn shoe" method (making the shoe from the inside out), but it also incorporates the latest techniques to create a truly modern shoe. The platform is banged out by hand, there is flexibility at the demi-pointe and a graduated insole.
Challenge: The difficulty of dancing on pointe!
Solutions: Prima Soft's new En l'air is designed for dancers with tight ankles and feet. It has flexibility points that enable the dancer to roll through the shoe but also receive proper support.
Expectations for the Future
As choreographic and technical demands increase, pointe shoes must evolve to meet dancers' needs. Considering the advances in the past 10 years, what will the next decade hold? A shoe that makes dancing effortless? One can only hope.
Janice Barringer is the author of The Pointe Book and On Pointe.
Pointe Shoe Evolution: In Search of the Magic Slippers
Since the pointe shoe first appeared, the idyllic image of a dancer perched on delicate slippers covered in pink satin has captivated audiences and tantalized young dancers. Though the pointe shoe's image hasn't changed much, the past decade alone has brought numerous advances. As Prima Soft Vice President Marlena Juniman notes, "There is no such thing as a magic shoe," but with dancers demanding longer-lasting, better-fitting shoes, manufacturers have developed a host of alternatives to the original paste-and-cardboard creation. Check out these 21 pointe shoe manufacturers for their latest updates.

Break-in Tips and Techniques
By Rebecca Breau
Despite the leaps and bounds pointe shoe manufacturers have made in the past decade, most dancers still spend hours breaking in their shoes to fit the unique needs of their feet. There are many factors to consider, such as the size, shape, plus the strengths and weaknesses of the feet, as well as personal preferences. It can take a lot of trial and error to figure out which customizations work best. Some dancers end up finding their shoes don't need any breaking in at all. Here is a look at the break-in rituals of three professionals.
Tempe Ostergren
Kansas City Ballet
Shoe: Freed of London Wing Block
Padding: Paper towel—it's quick and convenient. And it's consistent, because you always start with a fresh sheet.
Techniques: I step on the box and bend the shank. Next I hammer the shank right at the ball of the foot so that it shapes to my demi-pointe. Then I glue the shank there with Jet Glue.
How It Helps: I form my shoes specifically for each performance so that every shoe is customized to what I am doing at the time. For balancing and turning, like in a pas de deux, I need a harder shoe. Contemporary requires something more organic—the shoe should play less of a role and be softer.
Dream Shoe: A shoe that doesn't hurt your toes would be great!
Anne Marie Melendez
Ballet Austin
Shoe: Sansha 202S
Padding: None. I just tape three toes on each foot and use a jelly toe cover when I bruise or crack a toenail.
Techniques: First I take the staples/nails out of the shank. Then I use a small amount of rubbing alcohol to soften the shank, and cut nearly half of it out. I cut the satin off the tip and scratch the bottom with a pair of scissors. I step on the box and put a little rubbing alcohol at the widest part. It dries quickly but helps the box mold to my wide feet.
How It Helps: My foot bends right in the middle, so if a shank is too high for me, it will eventually just buckle and bulge at the bottom. By cutting it so low, the remaining shank gives me more support in the long run.
Dream Shoe: I feel like Sansha and I have grown up together. We've seen each other through a lot of changes, a lot of ballets and a couple of shoe sizes. I just wish I could special-order some of my customizations.
Nadia Iozzo
Kansas City Ballet
Shoe: Freed of London J maker
Padding: I wear masking tape on most of my toes and thin lamb's wool toe pads. Sometimes I wear spacers to help prevent corns.
Techniques: I lay them flat on the floor and stand on top of the box to flatten them out. Then I flip them and repeat this process. I take them to a corner or a barre and try to pop the shank close to the toe. My shoes come customized with a three-quarter shank, but I cut them down a little further. On the outside of the sole, I cut a little hole at the ball of the foot to help them curve better.
How It Helps: When I first began pointe work, I barely broke my shoes in—I just sort of bent them. As I became more exposed to different techniques, I worked out a method that was just right for me. Now the initial break-in process is the same no matter what.
Dream Shoe: It can be hard to find your balance just standing on flat-foot when you are wearing pointe shoes. If there were a way to have a very thin but very strong shank, so you could feel like you were standing on your whole foot, it would be very helpful.
You can pick and choose from these dancers' tips, but the technique you use must be your own. Whether you bend, bind, darn, cut, shave, strip or super-glue, breaking in a new pair of pointe shoes is its own art, always molding itself to fit the next generation of dancers.

Hey everyone, I just had an idea for a cool thread. Lets start a list of questions you have heard for a Linux related position interview. It always amazes me with some of the off-the-wall questions interviewers can come up with to 'test' your Linux knowledge. Usually they are highly esoteric, and require knowledge of not-oft used portions of our favorite OS. (Don't forget the answer to your question too!) Have fun!
I will start, here is one I got a while back:
Q: What are pipes, and how are they used?
A: A pipe is a chain of processes or commands that send the output (stdout) to the input (stdin) of the next process/command.
An example of their usage would be:
Would basically search a directory for a file named 'filename'Code:find /dir | grep filename

Aldosterone level test
Aldosterone is a hormone released by the adrenal glands. It is part of the complex mechanism used by the body to regulate blood pressure. Aldosterone increases the reabsorption of sodium and the excretion of potassium in the distal tubules of the kidneys. The reabsorption of sodium is accompanied by the reabsorption of water, which raises blood pressure.

Gov. Corbett Claims Victory In Tussle With White House Over Medicaid Expansion Rules
CBS Philly (con't)
Affordable Care Act Updates: CBSPhilly.com/ACA
Health News & Information: CBSPhilly.com/Health
By Tony Romeo
HARRISBURG, Pa. (CBS) — After months of negotiation, the Corbett administration today said the federal government has approved the governor's alternative proposal to use Medicaid funds to extend private health coverage to hundreds of thousands of adult Pennsylvanians.
Jennifer Branstetter, Gov. Corbett's director of policy, insists it is Medicaid "reform" and not simply an expansion of Medicaid. She says it is about reform first and increased coverage second.
And she says there will be a voluntary employment and job training incentive component.
"What it is, is if you participate in job training, if you want to go get your GED, if you participate in job training opportunities to increase your skills, we're going to reduce your premiums. It's encouraging personal responsibility (and) healthy behavior," she said.
And Branstetter says those who participate can reduce premiums by up to 50 percent.
She says 14 current Medicaid programs will be reduced to two, with the number and types of visits reduced to align Medicaid to commercial standards.
Coverage in the new private insurance plan would begin January 1st of next year.

Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today.
Due to BlizzCon shenanigans, this is my first Queue since late October. Did you miss me?
No. Of course not. Even I wouldn't miss me.
gamer4279 asked:
I need to know: Is that sale of the $5 60 day time cards at Gamestop on Black Friday, absolutely confirmed? Ive seen the flyer. but it doesnt mention a definitive price. I plan on buying enough time cards to last me for quite some time if this is in fact true.
It is not confirmed. Since that original ad was revealed, some other details about it have come out. You can't just buy a stack of time cards for $5 each. It looks like you get that bundled with buying, for example, a World of Warcraft battle chest or something along those lines. In other words, if you buy the game, you get a deal on the gametime.
Ron2 asked:
I was fighting General Nazgrim today, and in the chat pane, everything he said was labeled as labeled as [Demonic]. Is that just in-game weirdness, or did something happen to Naz?
That's what happens when a warlock puts Curse of Tongues on something. Wait, no. I think that's wrong, but I'm leaving it there so you can see the exact moment I performed a double-take at my desk. I haven't played my warlock in ages, so I have to ask the readers this question: do warlocks even have Curse of Tongues anymore? Has it been rolled into another spell?
Cyrael asked:
Anyone else sick of people conceding in Hearthstone right before you land the killing blow? Pretty much deflates most of the satisfaction of finally breaking a losing streak. Makes me wish there was a "Coward!" emote.
I concede when I know I've lost. Sometimes that's when I'm looking at the field on my own turn and realizing I have nothing to stop my inevitable defeat. Sometimes it's when I'm behind and then my opponent slaps down another badass I can't deal with. I don't do it because I want my opponent to lose out on the satisfaction of victory. I do it because I got tired of opponents that, when they have a sure victory, stop and play every single card in their hand to do eight million damage in one go instead of the one damage they need. Not everyone does that, but enough of them do that I don't waste time finding out.
ScottLeyes asked:
Will there be opportunities for more epic Alliance Poop Quests in WoD?
If you don't get at least two poop quests per expansion, you're not playing Alliance. On the other hand, if you play Horde, you get to buddy up with an entire race of people who make poop and butt jokes for an entire expansion! Isolated case so far, though.
@Xtina_Marie04 asked:
with squish dropping our health down, will it drop our dps output as well? Old raids still soloable?
The devs have said that old raids will still be soloable. That won't change.
@wowcynwise asked:
What's up with these new secondary stats?
I'm going to cop out on this one a little bit and say keep an eye out this week. Blizzard will be publishing a dev blog post that explains everything about stat changes in Warlords of Draenor. That post will, most likely, lay out exactly what the new stats are and what they do. Considering that post might be coming out today, it's silly for me to give an explanation when my understanding might turn out totally wrong within 24 hours.
