FOXBORO Tom Brady had the night off on Thursday night, as his Patriots hosted the Jacksonville Jaguars at Gillette Stadium in the first preseason game of 2011. So he got to watch his backup quarterbacks show off their stuff while he listened to the play calls from the sideline.
Brian Hoyer got the start under center for New England, and he finished the first half 15-of-21 for 171 yards and a touchdown pass to help the Patriots to a 19-9 halftime lead over the Jaguars.
After that, rookie Ryan Mallett took over to begin the second half, and finished his two quarters 12-of-19 for 164 yards and a touchdown.
All in all, two passing touchdowns and zero interceptions in a 47-12 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars with Brady on the sideline is a good night.
Both guys did a good job, said coach Bill Belichick. They moved the ball and scored some points. Theres plenty of mistakes, things we have to work on. But that was a positive.
Hoyers touchdown pass came on a 3rd-and-8 from the Jacksonville 11-yard line, as he found wide receiver Taylor Price wide open in the back of the end zone.
Its funny, because we had that play in practice the other day, and it was almost the same catch, said Hoyer after the win. Price has come a long ways. When it comes to game time, he really turns it on . . . He comes to play when he gets the opportunity.
Like Price, Hoyer got his opportunity on Thursday night, and didnt find out he was starting until today.
And just as he ran through practice drills all week, Hoyer made second-year tight end Aaron Hernandez his go-to target in the first half. Hernandez finished the first half with 6 receptions for 68 yards. But unfortunately, Hernandez fumbled twice, losing one of them.
Hernandez fumbled Hoyers first pass attempt of the game, which was a seven-yard reception that the tight end lost inside his own 30-yard line.
That didnt phase Hoyer though, as he continued to go to Hernandez throughout the half.
We got in there and talked about having a good tempo, said Hoyer. And after those first two series, and obviously the first play and then the three-and-out, we just wanted to get out there and pick up the pace. I think that kind of gets you in a rhythm a little bit, and we started moving the ball a little bit better.
Thats obviously something you dont want to do, added Hoyer on the fumble. But from then on, youve got to bounce back. And I missed a throw to Julian Edelman. I threw it a little high. But then after that series, I think we set the tempo and the pace. We picked it up and got in front. Just get in and out of the huddle, have a good tempo out there, and really attack those guys.
Once Hoyer was done attacking the Jaguars, Mallett made his debut in the second half. And he had even more success than Hoyer, as the Patriots put together a scoring drive every time Mallett stepped under center.
It felt good just to get out there and play football with the guys, said Mallett. Weve been working hard in camp, and to get out there and actually see a product thats not just practice, and see a different color jersey, was a lot of fun.
I felt like I was comfortable after the first play. And then after that, I had good protection for the most part. Obviously Stevan Ridley had a great game. Buddy had a pick and a couple catches. Overall, I thought we did a pretty good job.
Malletts touchdown pass came on his second possession, as he found running back Stevan Ridley busting down the left sideline for a 16-yard touchdown, giving New England a 33-9 lead after the extra point.
But Mallett was maybe most impressive during his opening drive, as he led the Patriots 82 yards in the first 5:57 of the third quarter. The drive resulted in a one-yard touchdown run for Ridley, but Mallett was 6-of-8 for 79 yards on the impressive drive.
He played great, said Hoyer about the rookie quarterback. Its obvious that hes got a great arm. He had good poise out there and led those guys. I thought he did a good job.

|The Game Story:
|WESTMINSTER, MD --- The fifth-ranked Washington College men's lacrosse team
completed its third unbeaten Centennial Conference regular season and its
first since 1997 with a 14-4 win over 13th-ranked host McDaniel this
afternoon in Westminster, MD. The win gives the Shoremen hosting rights to
next weekend's Centennial Conference Tournament. The Shoremen (10-2, 8-0
Centennial), who lead Division III in defense with just 4.17 goals allowed
per game, limited McDaniel (10-1, 6-1) to just 17 shots in the game.
McDaniel got on the board first, just 1:08 into the game, as Rob Weaver fed Justin Merson for a goal, but the Green Terror did not score again for the next 40:13 as the Shoremen ran off 10 unanswered goals. Senior attackman Chris Edwards (Baltimore, MD/Boys' Latin) scored WC's first two goals with 10:14 and 1:16 left in the first period off assists from senior midfielder Craig Earley (Ridgewood, NJ/Ridgewood) and sophomore attackman Ryan Morrison (Manhasset, NY/Manhasset/Salisbury School, CT), respectively.
The Shoremen then put up six goals in the second quarter to take an 8-1 lead at the half. Washington went on to score the first two goals of the third quarter as sophomore attackman Jon Spivey (Timonium, MD/Dulaney) scored an unassisted goal to give the Shoremen the 10-1 lead with 8:25 left in the period. The Green Terror finally got back on the board on a goal by Jeremy Freed with 3:39 left in the period, but unassisted goals by junior midfielder Randy Vane (Sparks, MD/Gilman) and junior midfielder Steve Berger (Jessup, MD/Mt. St. Joseph) with 2:23 and 1:35 left in the third, respectively, gave the Shoremen a commanding 12-2 advantage heading into the final period.
Spivey finished with four goals on the day for the Shoremen, including three in the second quarter. Edwards added two goals and two assists, while Berger totaled three goals. Earley contributed two goals and one assist to the win. Vane tallied two goals and Morrison added one goal and one assist.
Washington junior goalie Richard Yost (Westminster, MD/St. Paul's) made 11 saves, boosting his save percentage this season to .664.
Merson led the Green Terror offense with two goals. Washington outshot McDaniel, 48-17, in the game and held a 36-22 advantage in ground balls.
As the top seed, the Shoremen will play in the first of two Centennial Conference semifinal games on Friday in Chestertown. McDaniel, Gettysburg, and Franklin & Marshall will be the other three seeds, with their specific seedings hinging upon the outcome of this Tuesday's game between McDaniel and Gettysburg. The championship game will be held in Chestertown on Sunday, April 27th.

Members of the Somerset County Long Term Recovery Committee elected two new co-chairwomen Monday to replace John Phoebus, who recently announced his resignation after a year of leading the group through Hurricane Sandy recovery.
Phoebus said he has added Kristy Hickman, the county's former state's attorney, to his practice, and has expanded the office to include a Salisbury location in addition to Crisfield.
His decision to step down from the chairmanship was based on his obligations to his clients, he said in a letter to board members. ...

Are Your E-Learning Courses Pushed or Pulled? | The Rapid eLearning Blog
Here's the challenge for many of us. We want to make our courses engaging and interactive, yet sometimes the content or the time pressures of work don't make that easy. The default position for many elearning courses is to merely push the information out to the learners. The end result is that the course is heavy on information and light on interaction. By changing the way you structure the information, you can quickly build the framework for more engaging and interactive courses. It's just a matter of rethinking how you approach the course design.

The human brain is divided into several parts that control movement and sensory function, or how the body moves and feels. This picture of the left side of the brain shows some of these areas. When a stroke damages a certain part of the brain, that area may no longer work as well as it did before the stroke. This can cause problems with walking, speaking, seeing or feeling.
The left side, or hemisphere, of the brain controls how the opposite (right side) of the body moves and feels, and is responsible for how well we can figure out problems with science, understanding what we read and what we hear people say, number skills such as adding and subtracting, and reasoning.
The right side of the brain
controls the movements and
feelings on the left side of
the body and is in charge
of how artistic we are,

Hello, I'm John Moss, and I'm a full time student athlete currently living in Fairfax, Virginia. I've been making swanky websites and other things since around 2008. Welcome to my little corner of the web!
In the 6th grade, I was asked to develop an application that could help astrophotographers properly align their telescopes. Shortly after, "CentriSky" was born. It took off through Australian astrophotography forums and conventions and is still in use today.
In 8th grade, I was listed by .NET Magazine as one of the Top 10 Young Web Designers of 2011.
In early 2014, as a Junior in high school, I traveled with students from George Mason University to compete at MHacks 3 against "more than 1,000 university students from across the US, and as far as Poland." In 36 hours, our team of 3 designed and developed post., a web application that allows users to send physical mail (and postcards, posters, & mugs) with the same ease they send email. Our application, 1 of 249 submitted, won one of the 19 prizes awarded that weekend.
My hackathon good fortunes continued with prizes at Bitcamp 2014 with StackIQ and PilotDC with Bombeo.
In the summer of 2014 I will intern at Social Tables in Washington D.C., focusing on Front-end Web Design and Development.

About the Episode
Bruce Smith & Dave Ettl present opposing views about the plan for downtown Yakima. The proposed plan will begin a conversion to create a pedestrian only downtown core. The plan converts a large parking center into a plaza designed to encourage people to walk to businesses, create an experience & be a focal point for downtown. It's a hotly debated topic with Smith & Ettl at the fore front debate.
Yakima's Downtown Master Plan
Dave Ettl did a great job in the interview of sharing a way to make Yakima a community we are proud of. I would love to help drive this initiative if I can help in any way to revitalize downtown and make it "tourist friendly".
We at Hopunion have been part of the Yakima community for many years and are also investing in the city's rejuvenation with our new property downtown.
The type of forward thinking that Dave showed is what is needed to help Yakima move forward.

Brazil and the United States, the world's top two teams, are expected to thrill the audience with their exceptional performances, while hosts Thailand and Dominican Republic will also join the fray.
Volleyball has become a popular sport among Thais in recent years following the impressive performances by the national women's team in several competitions.
Last year, thousands of fans queued for more than one kilometre from 6am to buy tickets for the finals of the Asian Women's Volleyball Championship in Nakhon Ratchasima.

Graham was last seen alive when he exited a Light Rail train at the County Line station at 11:40 p.m. on Nov. 5. On Thursday night, investigators rode the Light Rail trains from Union Station to County Line. They believe that was the same route Graham took.
Witnesses report hearing the sound of a shot or shots being fired in the area of East Phillips Place and South Yosemite Street. Graham's body was found five hours later by a homeowner.
Investigators also shut down lanes County Line Road. and South Yosemite Street on Thursday night. They handed out fliers to drivers in the area asking for information about the crime.
Earlier in the week, a surveillance tape from inside the Light Rail train where Graham was seen riding was released to the media. Captain Louie Perea with the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Department says no one in that video has come forward.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to contact the sheriff's department at 303-795-4711. A significant cash reward is being offered.

Mr. Wong in Chinatown (1939)
A pretty Chinese woman, seeking help from San Francisco detective James Lee Wong, is killed by a poisoned dart in his front hall, having time only to scrawl "Captain J" on a sheet of paper. She proves to be Princess Lin Hwa, on a secret military mission for Chinese forces fighting the Japanese invasion. Mr. Wong finds two captains with the intial J in the case, neither being quite what he seems; there's fog on the waterfront and someone still has that poison-dart gun. Stars: Boris Karloff, Marjorie Reynolds and Grant Withers.

7 Quick Takes Friday: National Marriage Week Edition
It's National Marriage Week! So I'm hoping these quickly-written takes will all be at least tangentially related to my marriage.
1. We're going to Washington D.C. for reals! We were planning to last summer to celebrate our anniversary and my birthday (3 days apart), but it was the hottest stinkin' week of the year (as it usually is), and we decided it would be better to wait. So we've waited and waited, and here, Colin is giving an invited talk at an American Mathematical Society sectional meeting in DC on HIS birthday! Chicka chicka what now! So we're going next month.
2. Friday night is my favorite night of the week. Partyin', partyin', yeah! No, but seriously, I love knowing that the weekend is ahead and snuggling with Colin while we watch 30 Rock, Parks and Recreation, and The Office (or some partial combination thereof -- can't be up too late when our little Elise alarm goes off at 6 AM every day). Thanks, Hulu!
3. We have nothing planned for Valentine's Day, which is our usual schtick. Based on the week's dinner schedule I wrote up earlier today, it looks like we'll be having some chicken and rice soup that evening. And then he'll have to go back to work to tutor. We're really bad at "occasions." But hey, we went out to celebrate our 4.5-year wedding anniversary last month (baby in tow, of course), and that went well, so yippee!
4. Does anyone else get "phantom" baby-kick sensations in her abdomen? (Don't worry, I'm not one of those women who doesn't realize she's pregnant, this has been going on practically since Elise was born.) Just happened to me again. (How is this related to your marriage, Louise? Never happened until after I had OUR baby, skeptical one!)
5. Speaking of our baby, is the father-daughter bond not the most adorable thing on the planet? Those two are just completely smitten.
6. Colin and I love food, and we love grocery shopping together. Our Trader Joe's has WALLS now! It is actually going up! I can't wait to go on a grocery date there with my man.
7. A few weeks back, I mentioned to Colin before nursing Elise to sleep that I had a bunch of things I wanted to remember to do before going to bed myself. When I came out of Elise's bedroom, I discovered this note he left for me on the fridge:
Def married the only man for me!

I LOVE 30 rock, the office and parks also!ReplyDeleteReplies
I think they're all quite funny! Too bad there was no new Parks this week!Delete
Yay! DC! Can't wait to hear all about your trip!! :)ReplyDelete
As for 'partyin' yeah!' every Friday Gary gets up for work, looks over at me and says "It's Friday!" and I respond, to much groaning from him, "It's Friday! Friday! Gotta get down on Friday!" This morning was no exception.
Chicken and Rice soup sounds fantastic! I've been meaning to find myself a recipe for it for some time now. For vday at our house there will be pizza with heart shaped pepperonis. :P
And OHH you are way closer to having a Trader Joe's than we ever will be.Replies
and hehe - just noticed that Elise's shirt looks like a Twister board!Delete
Also forgot to say that, yes, I get the phantom baby kicks ALL THE TIME.Delete
LMAO on your Friday routine!Delete
Heart-shaped pepperonis sound so cute. Aww. :)
If we're still living here when it opens, you are more than welcome to visit and we can check it out!
HAHA it does! That actually never occurred to me but it always vaguely reminded me of something.
I'm glad I'm not the only one with the phantom kicks!
LOL @ the note on the fridge!ReplyDeleteReplies
Yeah, I about doubled over in laughter! I'm glad I had the presence of mind to photograph it.Delete
Seriously every time I read these I wish I could just like drive and meet your family. Because you are that cute.ReplyDelete
Also, your husband rocks. And that picture is adorable. Ahhh I love love.Replies
And it would be our delight to meet you!! It is my ardent hope that we will someday move back to northeastern Ohio. And then we will be much closer!Delete
DC is one of my most favorite cities!! I haven't been there since senior year of high school, I'm so jealous you'll get to go!!ReplyDelete
Hulu rocks, and so does Netflix :)
Hahaha, that note is great, inside jokes are always a fun thing!!
Elise looks so adorable! Father-daughter bonds are the greatest for sure :)
And I am just not a fan of Vday, so staying in and having a normal dinner sounds like it will be great!
Our stay-in dinner was great! I hope that you had a lovely day! :)ReplyDelete

Active Questions
|Dating / 3:30 PM - Thursday January 29, 2009
Why do women like emotionally and/or physically unavailable guys?
I'm just going to put this out there--I really think I'm attracted to emotionally and/or physically unavailable guys. If they live several hours away from me, or don't want a relationship, I'm totally in love with them. However, if they want any kind of committment or live in my city, I'm simply not interested. My question is, why?
- Asked by Female, 29-35
As a guy, I can only be angered by this. The guys you don't want are almost in your face and you are passing them by? I think that is what distinguishes a girl from a woman. Emotionally unavailable guys do nothing but pump and dump, and the guys in different time zones/state/county lines even, have more of a chance than someone who wants to drive 15 minutes to see you? I think you need some growth and or a little maturity to realize and understand that you are becoming the person who says, "There are no good men out there.", when in actuality, your eyes aren't open to the men right there. So sorry if tis sounded angry, wasn't my intent, but it's more frustration because I've dealt with girls who do the very thing you're saying you do and it is honestly becoming a lot more ridiculous as time goes by.
- Response by micoll, A Life of the Party, Male, 26-28, Medical / Dental
Community Rating: Community Star
the age old theory which applies to both genders.....you want what you can't have.
- Response by mantis, A Creative, Male, 18-21
You are attracted to those kind of guys because they are safe. There are no expectations, no time schedules, etc. No real need for serious "engagement".
- Response by uasked, A Career Woman, Female, 56-65
Well you would say that these men are commitment phobic, but the reality of the situation is you choose these type of relationships because you yourself have commitment issues and by keeping them at a distance, them not being available, etc. then you don't have to relate to them on a deep emotional level and/or make a serious commitment to them.
- Response by kdtxchic30, A Thinker, Female, 36-45, Who Cares?
Your age alone pretty much says it all. Most women your age are like that. I know because I dealt with it a lot from women when I was your age. As a former "nice guy," I thought expressing myself to women was what women liked. But I found out the hard way that that is a huge myth. Most women your age don't want a guy who is available whenever you want to be around him. Most women like a guy who is a bit of an asshole because many women think they can "change" him into what they want him to be. The assholes are different, they play women, bang them and leave them, and are emotionally unavailable. I have found out that women like to chase men just as much as guys like to chase women. So with you I think it's all about the chase. The harder, the better. The bad thing is that you may also become one of those women once you reach your thirties who constantly complain that there no good men out there, when the reality is that you bypassed them all or treated them all like shit when you were younger, and now you're suddenly alone. It's something you may grow out of once you're older, but considering your age at the moment, you're not even remotely the only woman your age who does things like this. Take it from me, I have dealt with what seems like dozens of women like you when I was your age.
- Response by newdad, A Jock, Male, 36-45, Las Vegas, Transportation
You are obsessed with the turnaround. You want one of these guys to finally realize how great you are and abandon all their wanton ways and completely commit to you in the most embarrasing "I'd do anything to be with her" way. Good luck with...I think I saw that happen in a movie once.
- Response by 7zebras, A Career Man, Male, 36-45, New York, Financial / Banking

These egg rolls are light and crispy.
YIELD: 15 lumpia
Ingredients2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 lb lean ground pork
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, sliced
1/2 lb green beans, julienned
2 carrots, julienned
1 tbsp soy sauce (optional)
1 cup bean sprouts (optional)
15 lumpia wrappers, square or round
Salt to taste
PreparationHeat oil in skillet and saute garlic and onions until tender. Add pork and saute until browned. Add vegetables and cook until tender, yet crisp, about 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat. Season with soy sauce. When mixture is cool, add bean sprouts. Salt to taste.
To assemble lumpia: Carefully separate wrappers. To prevent them from drying out, cover unused wrappers with moist paper towel. Lay one wrapper on clean surface. Place about 2-3 tablespoons of the filling near the edge closest to you. Roll edge towards the middle. Fold in both sides and continue rolling. Moisten opposite edge with water to seal. Repeat with other wrappers. Lumpia can be frozen until ready to use.
Deep fry at 350 degrees until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sweet sour or vinegar and garlic dipping sauce (recipes below).

Weezer is releasing their 8th full-length studio album on September 14th, and just two days ago, the cover art was released. Apparently, there were some issues deciding what to call the album as well as what should go on the cover. I'm happy to say that the name of the album is no longer an issue; it is called "Hurley". Alright, I can dig that.
However, the cover art that they released seems an unusual choice:
"I just loved this photo of Jorge Garcia — it just had this amazing vibe. We didn't want to do a fourth self-titled record and we knew people would refer to it as 'the Hurley record' even if we left it without that title, so we just called it 'Hurley.' No words are on the cover because all we wanted was his amazing face."
Amazing face, people. His face is AMAZING. I can't say I'm particularly surprised that this is the cover art they have chosen; but I'm not sure if I agree it would be the best course of action. Maybe I'm just being old-fashioned. What do YOU think, huh?
This cover art also reminds me of the cover of my friends' band in highschool. The band was called The Cocks, and they only released an EP (if you could even call it that). It was pretty amazing stuff if I remember correctly.

Cardinal Dolan scoffs at idea he may be 1st American Pope
Catholic World News - February 18, 2013
New York's Cardinal Timothy Dolan has abruptly dismissed speculation that he could be the first American elected as Roman Pontiff.
Speaking to reporters after he celebrated Sunday Mass at St. Patrick's cathedral, Cardinal Dolan laughed off the reports that some people have named him as a possible Pope. "I'd say those are only from people smoking marijuana," he said.

The cardinal would be the wrong choice for the Church. He is too "political" and is obviously afraid to deal with politicians and other dissidents within the Church and has closed more schools. This is not the example we need to portray to the world. The next pope doesn't have to be a cardinal, for that matter.

I have never touched marijuana, I promote Cardinal Dolan to be our Next Pope! It is time for an American Pope to lead the world by first leading our Country away form The baseness we are now in, then we will lead the world. from that pit as well. This time we lead from the Church. First we organize our Country, then the World! "Be it done by the Grace of God!" let us pray!!!!

Google stretches Android to wearable technology, on your wrist
It was signposted last week and is now formally announced… Google is extending the Android platform to "wearable" technology, with Android Wear. Along with the Internet of Things, wearable tech is becoming the big tech theme du nos jours...
The company is starting with a familiar form factor: watches (no, wearable technology doesn't have to involve light-flashing clothing). "Going well beyond the mere act of just telling you the time," it says.
According to Google, Android Wear will support:
Useful information ("Android Wear shows you info and suggestions you need, right when you need them. The wide variety of Android applications means you'll receive the latest posts and updates from your favourite social apps, chats from your preferred messaging apps, notifications from shopping, news and photography apps, and more".)
Voice control ("Just say 'Ok Google' to ask questions, like how many calories are in an avocado, what time your flight leaves, and the score of the game. Or say 'Ok Google' to get stuff done, like calling a taxi, sending a text, making a restaurant reservation or setting an alarm.
Monitor health and fitness ("Real-time speed, distance and time information on your wrist for your run, cycle or walk.)
Multiscreen support ("Access and control other devices from your wrist. Just say 'Ok Google' to fire up a music playlist on your phone, or cast your favourite movie to your TV.")
In terms of UI, Google says a new form factor deserves a new UI model and at the highest level this consists of two main elements: the "context stream", to be swiped through, for suggestions; and "cue cards" for demands, i.e. unanticipated actions.
First out of the blocks is LG, with its Android Wear-based G Watch due to arrive in a few months.
For developers, there's a new section on developer.android.com/wear focused on wearables.
Resources include a Developer Preview. Google says you will be able to tailor your existing app notifications for watches powered by Android Wear. Because Android for wearables works with Android's rich notification system, many apps will already work well. More APIs and features for Android Wear devices are promised in coming months.
Google says it is working with several consumer electronics manufacturers in this area, including Asus, HTC, LG, Motorola and Samsung, as well as chip makers Broadcom, Imagination, Intel, Mediatek and Qualcomm.
Fashion brand Fossil Group is also mentioned to deliver watches powered by Android Wear later this year.

David Vonderhaar, the Treyarch developer in charge of balancing the multiplayer experience for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, believes that player feedback is less important to his work than a focus on solid data acquisition and error-free math.
The developer is using Twitter to teach the player base about the process, saying, "Math + Feedback = Tuning. But mostly math. Sometimes what you have to say and the math agree. Sometimes, they do not agree. Where they agree is that hipfire SMGs needed to get de-tuned. True story. I couldn't pay people to use SMGs in development. When the game came out, I couldn't pay people to use anything else."
He adds, "I'm excited and scared about the game tuning changes. This is the not the first or last time we'll touch it. It's the hardest and most rewarding part of the job."
Vonderhaar has previously mentioned that he is willing to ignore information coming from vocal players as long as there's no actual hard data collected from Black Ops 2 matches in order to back it up.
The team he is leading needs to keep an eye out on how multiplayer matches actually play out while also scouring forums for important information.
Based on subjective and objective elements, they can decide which weapons are overpowered and how the various skills need to be tweaked in order to deliver better balance.
The Call of Duty series has based much of its sales performance on its multiplayer mode in recent years and Black Ops 2 has changed a lot of the core structure for the game, allowing players to have more freedom when it comes to their skill and weapon loadout.
Activision says that Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 has managed to sell more than 1 billion dollars (773 million Euro) worth of games, a figure that some analysts dispute.

The open house for the local American Red Cross service station revealed a familiar setting. After years of being located in the municipal building, the Red Cross returned to its old location at 2150 Juniper St.Its return was celebrated with food and music. "It feels good," Kathy Seguara, service center manager, said. Just the response from the community is rewarding."She added people have commented about how nice it was to see the Red Cross flag hung outside.Seguara said the Red Cross returned to the little house nine months ago because of the reconstruction occurring at the municipal building.Marge Wolfe, a former Red Cross volunteer, said the reason why the Red Cross left the 2150 Juniper Street was "there wasn't enough room."With materials, classes and offices, the staff was always looking for a bigger place, she said. However, "we always loved this place," Wolfe said.The event was more just to reintroduce the community to building; it also presented Cindy Adams, the new regional chief executive officer, to the community.

Gov't satisfied with US support over sea row – Malacanang-A A +A
Wednesday, April 23, 2014
THE Aquino government is satisfied with the support it is getting from the United States, especially regarding the country's territorial dispute with China over the West Philippine Sea (South China Sea), a Palace official said Wednesday.
Presidential Communications Operations Office Secretary Herminio Coloma, Jr. said that statements of support from the US "have been encouraging and tend to affirm the cooperation and the partnership of both countries."
He said the government is also pleased with the actions the US has taken as these actions are "aligned with the pronouncements they have made."
In a recent trip to Japan, US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said the US remains committed to its defense treaty partners in Asia, including the Philippines, amid a more aggressive posturing of China in the region.
The Philippines continues to get American support in terms of beefing up its military capability through annual joint training exercises with US troops.
The Philippine military also recently acquired two ships from the US to strengthen its capability to patrol its coastline, especially in the West Philippine Sea.
US President Barack Obama is set to arrive in Manila on Monday for a two-day visit.
Coloma said the visit would provide President Benigno Aquino III and Obama "an opportunity to exchange views and their strategic vision for the 21st century and discuss new avenues to further strengthen the longstanding relations between the two countries by intensifying political and security cooperation, expanding trade and investments, tourism and development cooperation, and deepening people-to-people ties."
He further said that the meeting will allow the two leaders to "discuss continued cooperation on the rehabilitation of Yolanda-affected areas."
Coloma noted that Obama's visit is the peak of a series of recent high-level exchanges between the two countries.
Last year, US Secretary of State John Kerry and Hagel visited the Philippines. Early this year, US Senator and member of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee Marco Rubio, and US Congressman Ed Royce, who also chairs the Foreign Affairs Committee of the US House of Representatives, visited Manila.
"The treaty alliance between the Philippines and the US has been a cornerstone of peace and stability in the region. The United States is the only defense treaty ally of the Philippines," Coloma said.
"This wide-ranging security partnership includes joint military exercises, such as Balikatan and humanitarian assistance and disaster response activities, to defense and security assistance that supports Philippine efforts toward achieving enhanced defense capabilities," he added.
Coloma also noted that the US continues to be the major trading partner of the country, with total trade amounting to US$14.5 billion in 2013. Last year, the US was the second largest export destination of the Philippines after Japan, with exports reaching US$7.8 billion.
"The US is one of the Philippines' top sources of assistance. From 2011 up to 2013, US assistance to the Philippines has amounted to over a billion dollars. The development and military assistance covers a broad range of programs, from enhancing defense capabilities to supporting the good governance reform agenda, poverty reduction, and improving public infrastructure," Coloma said.
He said that people-to-people ties are strong with an estimated 2.27 million Filipinos living in the United States, while thousands of US tourists visit the Philippines every year. In 2013, more than 670,000 American tourists visited the Philippines.
"The visit of President Obama affirms the vigor of our strategic partnership and alliance, and the strength of our people-to-people ties," Coloma said. (SDR/Sunnex)

Is it still shorts and flip flop season where you live? Trust me, I feel your pain! Even in the Pacific Northwest, which is known for its gorgeous and crisp falls, it is still feeling very summery despite a few sprinkles here and there. There's no color in the trees, it's definitely not sweater weather, and the last thing I want most days is a hot beverage.
But, you see, I adore fall. I long for autumn almost as soon as summer begins and visions of this kind of weather keep me happy even during the hottest days of the year.
