While the company did state that the transition should begin soon, users were left without a date well, not anymore!
A couple of months ago, news about Microsoft bringing Windows Live Messenger users to Skype, thereby letting go off Messenger, grabbed headlines. While the company did state that the transition should begin soon, users were left without a date – well, not anymore! On its Big Blog, Skype's Parri Munsell confirms that the transition from Messenger to Skype on Windows desktop will begin on April 8. Munsell adds that the entire process will take a few weeks. The process will begin with their English language clients and will end with Brazilian Portuguese on April 30 or later.

Madison OperaŌĆÖs ŌĆśToscaŌĆÖ: A fine performance of a ŌĆśshabby little shockerŌĆÖ
Once famously called a ŌĆ£shabby little shocker,ŌĆØ the opera tells the tale of Floria Tosca (soprano Melody Moore), her lover Mario Cavaradossi (tenor Scott Piper) and Baron Scarpia (baritone Nmon Ford), whose evil schemes prove to be the undoing of them all. Generally reviled when it premiered in Rome in 1900, the opera has become one of PucciniŌĆÖs most popular works.
Played amid some impressive sets on loan from the Seattle Opera, director A. Scott Parry paints Tosca as fiery and flirtatious, a role to which Moore has no trouble rising. Her searing soprano soars to the heights of Overture Hall in MadisonŌĆÖs Overture Center for the Arts, yet still manages a tender, almost intimate rendition of the noted ŌĆ£Vissi dŌĆÖarteŌĆØ aria in Act II.
As Cavaradossi, Piper delivers a fine performance as the painter who loses his life for dabbling in the politics of the day. But the show may belong to Ford as Scarpia, who plots his brutal conquest of Tosca with the same fervor he gives to planning CavaradossiŌĆÖs undoing. His voice during the famous ŌĆ£Te DeumŌĆØ sequence that ends Act I has sufficient edge and power, never once causing us to doubt his malevolent intent.
Maestro John DeMain and the Madison Symphony Orchestra do their usual excellent work and Karen Brown-LarimoreŌĆÖs exquisite costumes bring added vibrancy and color to the production. This is Madison OperaŌĆÖs fifth time around for ŌĆ£ToscaŌĆØ in its 53-year history, proving once again why the ŌĆ£shabby little shockerŌĆØ has become an operatic favorite.

The latest racing wheel to come from the Thrustmaster stable takes full advantage of its Ferrari license and comes with the intent of offering "a unique experience by allowing them (that's you) to enjoy intense racing sensations with a racing wheel proudly bearing the legendary 'prancing horse' emblem... nothing less."
But let's get the most important question out of the way first. How much does it cost? Well seeing as though you asked the wheel comes in at £34.99. Which is pretty much the price of a game. Now that's out of the way, onto other equally important things.
So, nothing less then? Well it just so happens that we were recently behind the wheels of several different Ferraris at an event in Italy. Was the Ferrari GT Experience wheel exactly the same?
No, of course not, and you tell that a mile off. But after clamping the whole shebang to the desk, putting the pedals on the floor and sticking on Colin McRae: Dirt, we were suitably impressed.
The whole rig handled pretty well as we squeezed the life out of it going flat out round Dirt's bendy bends. We would have tried it with the racer of the moment - Project Gotham Racing 4 - but Thrustmaster's offering is only compatible with PS3, PS2 and PC so that was out. We say only...
Like any racing wheel worth its g-clamp there's an option to adjust the sensitivity of the turning circle. Dirt needed twitch-style movements and not full lock left and right before the car started to turn, which seemed to be the default setting out of the box.
There's a pair of flipper / paddles just under the wheel for gear shifts if any of you are brave enough to play with manual gears turned on. Actually the sort of gamer that loves his racing games enough to buy a wheel wouldn't dream of playing with automatic gear? So it's a good job we mentioned them and that they are present and correct.
Our only real grip was with the foot board that houses the pedals. Made entirely of plastic the two pedals rise up so high that they can be quite uncomfortable on the ankles when used over a prolonged period of time.
To minimise discomfort you need to sit back far enough from the board (rather than on top of it) so that your feet and ankles aren't in a 'V' shape. Not too far though, or else you won't be able to reach the wheel. But with a little playing around with positions, we eventually found our sweet spot.
The Ferrari GT Experience wheel does everything you'd expect it to and not a thing more. If you're into your driving games that much chances are you've already got one, or maybe holding out to see what wheels might be available when the new Gran Turismo ships for PS3. It's not as elegant as Microsoft's Official 360 Wireless offering, but you can't get that to work with PS2, PS3.

When I was about 10, I was still convinced that I could play basketball in the NBA. I learned to dunk on my Nerf basketball hoop just like Vince Carter. I spent hours in my drive way, pretending to hit buzzer beaters. Suffice to say…if an NBA team had ever tried to lure me away from, well, just about anything, I would have dropped it like it was hot and moved to Minnesota, Charlotte, Alaska, Russia, or pretty much wherever they told me to be.
So maybe a part of me is just jealous of Ricky Rubio. Maybe.
But honestly, I can't be the only one getting sick of the Rubio drama, right? The never-ending speculation? The waiting game? At this point, I feel like we are getting expertly led on by a girl who knows the game much better than we do, leaving us just interested enough to keep hope alive, but deep down, of course, fully aware that we have no chance in hell.
I started writing this piece several days ago, actually. The original title was Ricky Rubio: A Refresher. Included within the article were glowing reviews of Rubio's court vision, defense, and addiction to no-look passes; all the reasons why Wolves fans should be excited. See, things were starting to look optimistic. Kahn had just visited Spain. NBA writers were speculating on how Rubio coming over would change up the draft. I caught myself frequently refreshing my Google news with the key word "Ricky Rubio" typed into the search bar. I'm guessing I wasn't the only one.
Then, somewhere along the line, my Ricky positivity faded. I'm pretty sure it was around the time the draft lotto happened, and reminded us all that the Timberwolves are still the Timberwolves, and they still never catch a break. And Kahn stopped sounding optimistic, and started saying things like "I'll talk about it when there's news." And Rubio decided that he didn't want to ditch his Spanish League team during their playoff run, which sounds all well and good, until you consider that Rubio's next series doesn't end until June, and nobody really has any idea when David Kahn's mystery timeline runs out on signing Rubio…including David Kahn. Not only that, but Rubio is a bench contributor at best on his Spanish League team. In their clinching game of the last series, Rubio played 19 minutes off the bench. Ricky! You are getting the same kind of playing time as Eric Maynor! They would survive without you!
Tangent: Is Rubio aware that the only way he doesn't start on the Timberwolves is if he's a European flop of Darko proportions? Or, as a matter of fact, that Darko actually started for the Wolves this year? (Insert the sound of Wolves fans weeping.)
Anyway, at this point, thanks to a badly worded clause in the CBA (see the fantastic Canis Hoopus link above), we don't actually know when the Wolves have lost their opportunity to bring Rubio to the States, or when they could sign him if he was even interested. Speculation is running rampant that Kahn has to be considering trading Rubio, especially if Derrick Williams succeeds in his campaign to have Cleveland draft him second.
So which would be more frustrating: suffering through even more Rubio drama or seeing Kahn trade away the player we've been hoping and waiting to see in a Timberwolves uniform for the past two years?
You tell me. I'm tired of thinking about it. If you are looking for me, my Nerf basketball hoop is calling.

Brian's Best Pumpkin Carving Ever [PICTURE]
I even impressed myself.
I even impressed myself.
Carving pumpkins can be hard...I've never mastered the art of the perfect cut. My dad used to cut ours with his jig saw. We'd draw the design on, he'd cut it out, and poof, nice lookin' pumpkins.
Here's a question to ponder with your second cup of coffee; most of us know a lot of pumpkins get grown in the United States, with the majority being sold from roughly Halloween to Thanksgiving. But how much pumpkin is grown in the US each year, in pounds?
This Halloween season I have challenged myself to get better at my pumpkin carving. I have a LONG way to go to catch up to Ray Villafane from Michigan.

Local chiropractor to participate in Augusta Ironman
STUART - Dr. Daniel Rukeyser, DC, founder of the Vital Wellness Center, will be one of the participants in the upcoming Augusta, Georgia Ironman events as a competitor and service provider.
Rukeyser is a certified provider of the Active Release Technique (ART) and a member of the prestigious Ironman Provider Network and is also a triathlon competitor.
"For the Augusta Ironman event, I will be in Augusta in advance of the race to work with the various athletes to help them be better prepared to compete," said Rukeyser. "I have assisted athletes in a number of Ironman events to compete safely by properly preparing their bodies for the test of their endurance while at the same time helping them to recognize any potential warning signs that they are pushing their bodies beyond their limits."
Rukeyser will also be completing training at the event to receive his biomechanical motion analysis certification.
Biomechanical motion analysis is the art and science of observing and identifying biomechanical dysfunctions by watching the gait, movement, and performance of the various parts of the human body. With ART, this process also includes the identification of appropriate treatment protocols, the execution of these protocols, and the evaluation of the effectiveness of these treatments.
"With this system of analysis and treatment we can be sure that any injury that we treat is fully resolved and we can spot trouble areas before they become an injury," he said. "How many times do we see athletes with a Piriformis, or IT Band injury that they thought was taken care of only to get hit with a hamstring issue six months later? We know those problems are related and now we can prevent the secondary issue from happening at all. In this case it's a hamstring issue, but we see the same types of patterns with upper back and shoulders and other areas of the body. Not only can we prevent injuries with this method but we can improve performance in immediate and testable ways."
Rukeyser will also compete in the Augusta Ironman event. On Sunday, Sept. 30, upwards of 3,000 athletes will start their day swimming with the current in the Savanna River and should anticipate record breaking times as they venture 1.2 miles in a point-to-point swim.
At the Augusta Rowing Complex, the Ironman athletes will transition and begin their single-loop, 56-mile bike ride throughout Georgia and into the countryside South Carolina. The hilly terrain of this one-loop course will spread out the field and be a true test of stamina.
Competitors can then expect to be cheered on from start to finish of the 13.1-mile, two-loop run throughout downtown Augusta. Participants will conclude their Ironman with a strong finish on Broad Street.
"I'm looking forward to the challenge of the August Ironman event and plan to share the experience with competitors here on the Treasure Coast," concluded Rukeyser.

Windows Server 2008 introduces a DNS block feature that may affect the ISA Server automatic discovery mechanism when implementing WPAD using a Windows Server 2008 DNS Server.
The block feature provides a global query block list to reduce vulnerability associated with dynamic DNS updates. Dynamic update makes it possible for DNS client computers to register and dynamically update their resource records with a DNS server whenever a client changes its network address or host name. This reduces the need for manual administration of zone records, especially for clients that frequently move or change locations and use DHCP to obtain an IP address. This convenience comes at a cost, however, because an authorized client can register any unused host name, even a host name that might have special significance for certain applications. This can allow a malicious user to "hijack" a special name and divert certain types of network traffic to that user's computer. WPAD is a commonly deployed protocol vulnerable to this type of hijacking, and by default WPAD look up is disabled by the blocking mechanism.
If you want to use WPAD with a Windows Server 2008 DNS, note the following behavior:
To update the block list, use the dnscmd command-line tool. Open a command line prompt, and do the following:
For more information about the DNS block list feature and dnscmd commands, download the article "DNS Server Global Query Block List" from TechNet at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/network/bb629410.aspx.

Esta es una de las típicas preguntas que siempre nos hacemos los IT Pros, los Developers y los Arquitectos.
I just had to add a comment here, hoping to help people googling this subject. With the DNS blacklist enabled (blocking WPAD) you'll get a Windows Event ID 7600. At this point, if you search Technet, Support, etc you'll find nothing useful regarding Event ID 7600 and Windows 2008 DNS blocking the query.

Katie Green is an English model from Chichester, West Sussex.
Bellucci was born in Città di Castello, Umbria, Italy, the daughter of Maria Gustinelli, a painter, and Luigi Bellucci, who owned a trucking company. Bellucci started modelling at 16, when she was attending the Liceo classico. Initially pursuing a career as a lawyer, Bellucci modeled to pay her tuition at the University of Perugia, but the lifestyle tempted her away from her law studies. She speaks Italian, French, and English fluently, Spanish semi-fluently, and she has had speaking roles in each of these languages as well as in Aramaic for her part as Mary Magdalene in The Passion of the Christ.
Bellucci was married to fashion photographer Claudio Carlos Basso in 1990. She is currently married to fellow actor Vincent Cassel, with whom she has appeared in several films, and has two daughters, Deva (born 12 September 2004) and Léonie (born 21 May 2010). In 2004, while pregnant with Deva, Bellucci posed nude for the Italian Vanity Fair Magazine in protest against Italian laws that prevent the use of donor sperm. She posed pregnant and semi-nude again for the magazine's April 2010 issue.
In the documentary movie The Big Question, about the film The Passion of the Christ, she stated: "I am an agnostic, even though I respect and am interested in all religions. If there's something I believe in, it's a mysterious energy; the one that fills the oceans during tides, the one that unites nature and beings."
I found this image at Fleshbot but the image is stamped from Egotastic so it probably came from there at some time.
Jodie Foster recently made the news by admitting to a "relationship" with Mark Hurd of HP. While both adults state that they were not lovers, Mark Hurd ended up resigning his position supposedly since he filed inaccurate expense reports concerning the relationship. I am confused, if there was no sex then why were there expense reports and why would Mark file them incorrectly? The man was a multi-millionaire – he could afford a bed at the local Motel 6!
So here are some file image of Jodie with clothes on.

Coming Up for Air
By Bill Shortell
Dick Fadgen's initial impression of Rhodes swimmer Will Corvey?
"He won't last a week," said Fadgen, assistant swimming and diving coach at Rhodes.
However, by the end of the 2003-04 season, Fadgen and head swim coach and athletic director Mike Clary '77 agreed: Corvey was the most improved swimmer on the team.
"It was unbelievable. He was an animal in the water," said Fadgen.
A sophomore from Dallas, Corvey improved by 1:40 on his 1650 time for a season-best 19:27. He dropped 18 seconds off the 500 for a season-best 5:27. He swam the 200 freestyle in 2 minutes.
Swimming collegiately for the first time, it was Thanksgiving before Corvey (6-3, 165) began training.
He made a splash because of his aerobic conditioning and flexibility.
He runs cross country, indoor track (1500 and 3000 meters) and outdoor track (1500, 5000 and 10,000 meters).
Corvey is Rhodes's first four-sport athlete in about 10 years said Clary.
In Dallas, Corvey studied yoga and practices it on his own. He said it makes him more flexible.
"It helps a lot knowing your body position," he said.
At the Greenhill School in Addison, TX, he was all-conference in cross country and swimming and captained the rowing team.
"I always had variety. I like the combination. I'm always happiest at what I'm doing whether it's running, swimming, biking, lifting. It's something constant in my day," said Corvey, who has registered for the Memphis in May triathlon.
His desire for running made a U-turn in the ninth grade. In middle school, he was "just trying to finish the race and have it not hurt as much," he said. One day, while running around White Rock Lake in Dallas, he began to enjoy "running for running's sake. That fueled my interest for running through high school."
With continued training, Corvey should score in the 2005 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference swimming championships, said Clary. The Lynx finished 8th in the SCAC meet at Delta State in February.
Corvey's goal is to qualify for the NCAA national championships by the time he is a senior.
Determination and mental focus have been keys, he said, in his ability to maintain academics and go from one activity to another without burning out.
Coming up for air, Corvey was academic All- SCAC in fall 2003 with a 3.4 grade point average. Majoring in Spanish and English composition, he plans to attend law school.
He is also a resident assistant at Townsend Hall and involved in student leadership organizations.
Corvey has further honed his flexibility, in more ways than one, through a theater dance class spring semester. He's the only male in the class.
"I get picked on a lot. I'm totally out of my league," he said.
Fine arts is nothing new for Corvey, 20. He studied classical piano from age 8 to 18.
"I want to find a way to make the best of everything around me and to make the best of my ability," he said. "I'm one of those people who thrives under stress. The more stress I'm under, the calmer I get. That's why I want to do as much as I can."
Dressed to Kill
By Bill Shortell
Putting on her red and black Rhodes volleyball uniform, Laura Borg is dressed to kill.
An outside hitter, Borg earned All-Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference honors for the third straight season after leading the Lynx in kills with 332.
A senior from Lexington, KY, Borg finished her career with 1,333 kills, third most in school history. Her 2.92 kills per game in 2003 was a team-high. Her 2.84 kills per game average ranks fifth all-time.
Borg is a student athlete to die for.
A biology/religious studies major, she was third team Academic All-American this past season and has been Academic All-SCAC for four years. She has a 3.7 GPA.
During her volleyball career, she has wanted to play smart.
"A smart player will get the point every time," said Borg (5-9). "Being smart is more important than being physical. You can get blocked out the wazoo regardless of how strong you are."
Borg was among the first players coach Samantha Lambert recruited. She was all-state her junior and senior years at Henry Clay High School. Borg, 22, has played volleyball since she was 9.
Defense, a desire to win, enthusiasm and motivation were among qualities that Borg brought to the table, said Andé McDaniel, the team's only other senior and Borg's roommate. Selflessness also contributed to Borg's leadership, she said.
Leadership, which Borg calls her strength, is the ability to give and to take direction.
"I'm really driven to compete. To be an effective player takes inner drive and the ability to respect players. A player can only get better based on the players around them."
Borg is a leader off the court. She is treasurer of Mortar Board, a leadership society, and scholarship chair for Kappa Delta sorority.
On the court, Borg helped the Lynx achieve their best record of Lambert's tenure (23-15) and gain their highest conference seeding (fourth).
They defeated DePauw for the first time. During the SCAC crossover weekend, where west division teams played east division, Rhodes went 5-0. The DePauw victory and a victory over Centre, which came on the same day, made it a day "I'll remember forever," said Borg.
Her athletic and academic careers at Rhodes have helped her realize what she is passionate about.
Medicine, pediatrics, children and "working with people who can't help themselves" fuel her passion, she said.
She has interned at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and at Methodist-LeBonheur Children's Medical Center.
As her Rhodes career ends, Borg said she faces it with mixed emotions.
"I accomplished what I set out to do. I will take that and I'll put it into something else. I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason."
Lynx Win Golf Tourney
With a team score of 289, the Rhodes men's golf team won the Pizza Hut/BellSouth Intercollegiate Golf Tournament Feb. 22 at Dancing Rabbit Golf Club in Philadelphia, MS. The Lynx won by 13 shots over second-place University of Indiana at Purdue (302) and 13 shots over third-place William and Mary (303).
John Jennison '07 won his first collegiate tournament with his 2 under par round of 70. Chris Thompson '05 tied for second with 1 under par 71.

adidas Originals continues its ObyO line with another installment by Kazuki Kuraishi. As of late, Kazuki has been working with friend and fellow designer, Takahiro Miyashita, to create 84-74 lab clothing line. So it was only natural for him to use his new project as inspiration for this season's selection of adidas footwear.
The collection dons classic monochrome palettes of grey and navy on a variety of material applications. Subtle to the naked eye, it's KZK's signature eye for detail and design saavy that results in amazing nuances.
First a Campus 80 with a mesh medial overlaying reflective silver stripes, similar to last year's Kazuki x CLOT Superstars. Next the ZXZ ADV made of nubuck, leather and canvas. The cherry on top is the retrograde resistance patent leather hit on the forefoot. As the shoe is worn in, the patent will also break in to reveal a distressed hue pattern unique to each wearer (consider it like raw denim). The retrograde patent is taken to the max on the Torsion Allegra, composing the entire upper. Break in the patent to reveal other classic hues of maroon and forest green. These won't sit on shelves long- and rightfully so, because these need to be worn and broken in for a one-of-a-kind look.

I thought I would share my latest project. While I've made several packs in the past, this is my first time working with Cuben Fiber. I purchased 1 yard of the 1.5oz sq/yd, 54" wide material with the plan of making a pack worthy of a through hike. Here's how it turned out...Here is how I planned to cut the cuben material;My previous packs were of similar design and weight. The large outside pocket is one of my favorite features, but I tend to find myself digging through it to find what I'm looking for. On this design, I decided to make two shorter pockets instead. They are equally sized, and each are large enough to fit a wet tarp or single walled tent.The strap side of the packSide view showing how the pack fits. The shock cord that closes the rear pockets also holds tall items protruding from the side pockets, such as trekking poles or 3 liter water bladders.Specs:total capacity 3035 cimain pack 2325 cirear pockets 269 ci eachside pockets 86 ci eachTotal weight 4.9 ozI'm very happy with how this pack turned out. Now it's time to get out and use it! Happy Trails...John
That looks great, awesome job.So you exclusively sewed all the seems together or did you use tape/glue/etc?
your pack turned out great, I like the idea of the two back pockets.great job!
Yeah I dig the dual pockets also. Good work.
Phil, good question. I exclusively sewed the pack, like I would silnylon. I added diagonal reinforcement at all of the pressure points. The idea is the Spectra threads are aligned horizontally and vertically, so the diagonal patches add the needed durability much like Dyneema X Gridstop does. Time will tell...
Nice Job on the pack.
John,This looks fantastic, man. And it's even so light, you were able to attach that lighthouse to the bottom of the pack. Is that so the pack won't float away?What kind of attachment did you use for the lighthouse?Dug
Thanks for sharing! Where did you buy your Cuben material?Thanks again, Steve
He probably bought it from Zpacks.com who sell the 1.5oz cuben by the yard ($29). I don't know of anyone else that sells the 1.5oz stuff:http://zpacks.com/materials.shtml
Correct, Joe from ZPacks has been great to work with. Very good customer service! The material is very difficult to cut, but great to fold and sew...much easier than silnylon. As for the lighthouse, I guess that was decadent bringing decorations just because the pack is so light and tough. :)
Your pack is inspiring! I'm about to attempt to make my first cuben pack. I had a couple of questions, if you'd be so kind as to share your technique:--How is the bottom sewn? Is it a stuff-sack, "roll three times and sew" kind of construction or something more complex?--what kind of stitching do you suggest for securing the pack straps? It looks like the bottom of the straps are sewn into the pocket seam. Are the top straps "x-boxed", triple stitched into the reinforcement patches or something else? Thanks for sharing your project with us, John.-Greg
Hi Greg,Thanks for the kind words!The bottom is sewn similar a stuff sack, rolled once and triple stitched. Then I square off the corners, again similar to a stuff sack, to give the bottom its square shape. The long seam against your back is felled (double stitched).I've read all the bad things about sewing cuben, the stitches pulling out and such. I have to say, with this thicker 1.5oz/sq yd material, it's just not the case. The material actually does very well with bartack stitches. I originally had sewn the top of the straps to the pack with an x-box stitch, but the thread was actually breaking (not the fabric). I think this is because, unlike silnylon, cuben does not stretch at all. I went back and bartacked the entire x-box, and have a super tough connection now.Yes, the bottom of the straps are sewn into the pocket, with some cuben backing on the inside as well. These too are bartacked. I made another one of these packs for a friend, who prefers a hip belt, so in this case the bottom of the straps are sewn directly onto the hip belts as seen in this photo...I hope this helps! Good luck on your pack...looking forward to seeing it!
This is very helpful, especially with the fabric layout to display the relative dimensions of each piece. Thank you so much. Can you tell me if you sealed the stitch lines for waterproofing? And if so, what sealer did you use? I have a yard of 1.43 oz/yd cuben. Is that a little too light for a backpack? I have mostly read heavier such as yours at 1.5 oz/yd.
Jama,1.43oz and the 1.5oz you are reading about are the same. Most people waterproof the seams with cuben seam tape or Seamgrip.Ryan
Jana, check out John's website for more info and pics of his cuben backpack. Here: http://www.mountainultralight.com/2011/09/make-your-own-cuben-fiber-backpack.htmlI asked him by email a long time ago about whether he seam sealed the pack; he replied that sewing the straps and tie-out points created more holes than he thought was worth it to seam seal so instead he used a 0.5 oz cuben pack liner that had been seam sealed. Hope that helps.

Dacula claimed three county championships and Brookwood took two this past Saturday in the Gwinnett Football League's county championships.Dacula claimed titles in the 6- and 7-year-old division along with the 8-year-olds and 10-year-olds while Brookwood upset previously undefeated Mountain Park in the 9-year-olds and took home the final game of the day in the eighth-grade Division A championship. 6- and 7-year-old Tre Verett and Reed Adair each had two touchdowns as Dacula from the National League East defeated Dacula of the American League North 25-0. Verett scored on a 58-yard run with 6:42 left in the first quarter to give East a 6-0 lead. Verett then scored on a 9-yard run with 1:07 left in the half to give his team a 12-0 lead. Adair scored with 2:19 left in the third on a 40-yard run and Bailey Skelly added a run for a 19-0 lead. Adair finished off the scoring with a 44-yard run to make the final 25-0. The team from the NL East finished a perfect 12-0. 8-year-old Two undefeated teams collided but in the end it was Dacula taking a 40-12 victory over Grayson. Jordan Jones opened the scoring with a 5-yard run and Jalen Virgil added the extra point with 5:06 left in the first quarter. Grayson's Ernest Tiller scampered 59 yards with 4:13 remaining in the first but the extra point failed and Dacula led 7-6. Dylan Singleton ran it in from the 12 and Brandon Marsh added the extra point for a 14-6 lead with 3:01 left in the period. Singleton added a 10-yard run with 9:10 left in the second period and Virgil added the extra point for a comfortable 21-6 lead. Cameron Hankins increased the lead to 27-6 with a 40-yard run with 5:04 left. Grayson's Jordan Highlower got the Rams back in it with a 48-yard run with 2:59 left to cut the lead to 27-12. Connor Holman built the lead back with a 17-yard run with 6:51 left in the fourth period and Marsh had a 2-yard run with a minute to go to close out the scoring. 9-year-old In a game that featured arguably the best running back in his age category, Brookwood stifled Mountain Park's Duke Shelley all afternoon and Patrick Sullivan scored with 4:39 to go in the first period for a 6-0 lead. After the touchdown Brookwood recovered the onside kick and Mountain Park didn't have the ball until 9:50 in the second period. After Ben Klotz recovered a fumble, Sullivan scored the final touchdown as time expired for the final points. Brookwood finished 11-1 to avenge an earlier loss to Mountain Park while the Panthers finished 11-1. 10-year-old In probably the most exciting game of the day, Dacula edged Mill Creek in overtime 13-12. After a scoreless first period, Aaron Grove found Deante Harris for a 10-yard touchdown pass with 3:44 left in the half. But Myles Jack scored on a 30-yard run to tie the game 6-6 with 6:31 in the third. In overtime Ryan Coleman scored from 1-yard out and Harris found A.C. Collins for the extra point and a 13-6 lead. Mill Creek got a 1-yard run from David Curry but was stopped inches from the goal line on the extra point. Eighth Grade Division B Collins Hill shut out Mountain Park 22-0. Dakota Conn opened the scoring with a 13-yard touchdown run with 6:02 left in the first period. Taylor Heinicke hit Myka Hester for the two-point conversion and the Eagles led 8-0. Heinicke found Kyle Duran on a 16-yard touchdown as the half expired and Conn ran it in for a 16-0 lead at the half. Ken Cook closed out the scoring with a 1-yard run with 5:00 to go in the game for the 22-0 lead. 11-year-old Mountain Park remained undefeated with a 14-6 victory over South Gwinnett. Chris Carson opened the scoring with a 4-yard run with 1:17 in the first period. Shaq Vereen added the point for a 7-0 lead. That was the halftime score. Carson added a 6-yard run with 6:28 in third period and Ali Groves hit Rob Youngblood for the extra point and a 14-0 lead. Joe Torres recovered a fumble in the end zone for South Gwinnett with 7:28 left in the game but the extra point failed for the final 14-6 score. 12-year-old In the highest-scoring game of the evening, Buford got revenge for an earlier loss to North Gwinnett with a 38-20 shootout win. Fabian Taylor got Buford off and running with a 35-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown. Kentarious Bailey added the point after kick for an 8-0 lead. North bounced right back with an A.J. Clements to Chad Scott 14-yard touchdown pass with 2:18 in the first. Clements' kick tied it at 8. But Rick LeGrant ran it in from 36 yards out with 9:18 in the half and Bailey's kick made it 16-8. After a Preston Sweatman interception LeGrant ran 25 yards and Bailey's kick made it 24-8 with 7:01 left. Kelby Threckhold's interception thwarted another North drive before the half. North got a touchdown in the third period as Collins hit Jordan Lovelace from 10 yards out with 7:03 left but the point was no good and North trailed 24-14. Cole Thornton had a 3-yard TD run and Bailey's kick made it 32-14 with 2:50 in the third. Clements kept on firing as he found Austin Golden from 5 yards out with 17 seconds left in the third, although the point after was no good and Buford led 32-20. LeGrant added a 33-yard TD run with 6:56 left for the final 38-20 score. Eighth Grade Division A Brookwood got a late touchdown from Matt Carroll to seal a 22-14 victory over Norcross. Zeke Brown scored from 3 yards out and a Brown run on a fake kick gave the Broncos an 8-0 lead. Kenny Huitt scored on a 2-yard run with 7:44 left in the second period but the extra point failed and Norcross trailed 8-6. Huitt gave the Blue Devils a 14-8 lead with 1:02 left in the half. But Moore hit Matt Carroll on a halfback pass with 33 seconds left in the third and Ben McLane's kick gave Brookwood a 15-14 lead. Norcross was driving in the final minute of the game when Huitt's pitch on an option was intercepted by Carroll and run back 70 yards for a score. McLane's kick made the final score 22-14. Norcross finished 9-2 while Brookwood was the champion with an 9-3 record. The Broncos started the season 1-3.

AURORA, Colo. (May 27, 2013) A new study shows the relaxation of marijuana laws in Colorado has caused a significant spike in the number of young children treated for accidentally eating marijuana-laced cookies, candies, brownies and beverages.
"We have seen an increase in unintentional ingestions of marijuana by children since the modification of drugs laws in Colorado," said George Wang, MD, lead author of the study and clinical instructor in pediatrics at Children's Hospital Colorado and the University of Colorado School of Medicine. "We need to educate marijuana users, the community and medical professionals about the potential dangers."
The study, published Monday in the JAMA Pediatrics, compared the number of young children treated at the Children's Hospital Colorado emergency department for ingesting marijuana before and after the modification of Colorado's drug laws beginning in 2009.
A total of 1,378 patients under age 12 were evaluated for unintentional ingestions 790 before Sept. 30, 2009 and 588 after Oct. 1, 2009. The number of children treated for exposure to marijuana before Sept. 30 was zero. The number from Oct. 1 on was 14 with eight of those coming directly from consuming marijuana food products.
Wang, a fellow at the Rocky Mountain Poison & Drug Center, said today's marijuana can be much stronger, and these products can contain higher concentrations of THC, the active ingredient in the drug. Some marijuana infused candy bars, for example, contain 300 milligrams of THC. Children who ingested the drug exhibited symptoms that included respiratory problems, extreme sleepiness, difficulty in walking and lethargy. Many underwent a battery of expensive tests to diagnose their problem because the history of exposure was not given, or medical professionals were not familiar with marijuana causing these symptoms.
"Before the marijuana boom these kinds of edibles were not mass-produced and the amou

continued From humble beginnings to $1 million
Back in 2004, CORE FCU, which has served ESM for 55 years as the district's credit union, approached the school district with the idea of starting a student-run credit union, which, at the time, was not something that was being done in many schools. "We knew that the district has always been very focused on looking for hands-on, real life experiences," said CORE CEO Bill Sweeney.
That proposal became a reality and the Spartan Branch began operations at the beginning of the 2005 school year. The credit union, which was first run by 15 students enrolled in a money and banking class, has grown into a big part of student life at ESM, with contributions from dozens of students in several different classes who all play a pivotal role in the branch's success, Sweeney said.
Many students still first get involved through the money and banking class, where they go through a rotation each week so each student gets the chance to be a teller at the branch. Meanwhile, the other students enrolled in the class are back in the classroom learning basic financial skills.
But not just anyone can work at the Spartan Branch – just like at all of CORE's other branches, the students must prepare resumes, go through an interview process and get formal training from an FCU employee before they can perform the day-to-day operations.
Marketing students play a key role in the branch's success each year by putting together promotions within the school to generate awareness of the Spartan Branch and to focus on things that promote financial literacy.
"They operate very much like a Madison Avenue marketing company," said Sweeney. "At the beginning of the year, our marketing director and I visit the school and they make pitches to us, basically saying, 'Here are our ideas for the marketing program this year.'"

This was rather frosty, like most White Widow samples — the harvest timing was also wonderful, with plenty of ambers scattered around the leaf and calyx surfaces. It had above-average structure and dryness level, feeling stout in the hand and leaving a trail of kief after being handled. There were some small seed pods and a bit of yellowing on some leaf surfaces, indicating that there may have been some late stress.
A smooth and floral citrus was the dominant taste, reminding one reviewer of peaches. The taste wasn't very pungent though, it was only really noticeable on the first two hits. The final ash was a nearly pure white, and that translated to a rather smooth smoking experience — some of the traditional Widow harshness crept in at times, but it was an easy smoke overall.
(We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY) Strong ocular effects, appetite stimulation, mental and body relaxation, and minor pain relief.
This was a very nice Widow — it hit all the right taste and smell notes while also packing quite the potent punch. Though we would like to see it stress-free in the winter, the minor stresses and flaws didn't seem to negatively affect the experience much — the taste was good despite the tiny seeds. This strain was very potent almost immediately and held on strongly for a solid 2 hours, giving us a variety of medical benefits. Due to the lethargic and drowsy latter half, we'd recommend this most for evening or nighttime use, primarily for intermediate to experienced patients.

Lawrence Tech is partnering with several organizations to reach more than 25,000 people statewide with the survey. People interested in or involved with innovation and entrepreneurship across Michigan are encouraged to access and take the survey at www.iesurvey.ltu.edu.
Once the survey data is collected and analyzed, Lawrence Tech researchers will conduct in-depth interviews with selected survey respondents, hold focus group meetings and have meetings with key stakeholders to help determine recommendations and action items.
These recommendations will be documented in a final report to the U.S. Department of Commerce, and will be used to help chart improvements in developing a collaborative focus for innovation and entrepreneurship in Michigan.
The Detroit Regional Chamber of Commerce also provided financial support for the survey.
Lawrence Technological University, ltu.edu, offers more than 100 undergraduate, master's and doctoral degree programs in Colleges of Architecture and Design, Arts and Sciences, Engineering and Management. Founded in 1932, the 4,500-student, private university pioneered evening classes and today has a growing number of weekend and online programs. Lawrence Tech's 102-acre campus is in Southfield, and programs are also offered in Detroit, Lansing, Petoskey and Traverse City. Lawrence Tech also offers programs with partner universities in Canada, Mexico, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

If you're someone who regularly has to bring together information from a variety of sources and then organise it into something coherent, then a personal notes organiser is a must. CintaNotes is a simple, free tool that works perfectly for those wanting to quickly pull text from any source into a central location before organising it with the help of tags.
Once installed, launch the program and CintaNotes' main window appears, which can be minimised. Now when you come across any interesting snippet of information – whether it's from the web, in an email or via a document you're reading, just select the text in the usual way, press [Ctrl] + [F12] and it'll be deposited in the CintaNotes tray as an untagged piece of text, complete with title and link to the original website or document (double-click the note to view and edit these, along with the text itself).
As your collection builds, you can organise your notes by assigning tags to them – just right-click the entry and choose Tag to do so. Type a tag or tags (separate them with spaces) and click OK, and the note will be assigned to that tag – further tags can be added, and as you type any previous tags will appear as an auto-complete entry – press the right cursor key to accept that tag and save your keys.
Your notes are saved automatically, but can be exported and imported too. There are limited customisation options, such as the colour scheme of your notes and what fonts are used to display notes (along with how many preview lines are displayed).
A portable version is also available, enabling you to run the program from a USB flash drive on any compatible PC.
Version 2.9.3 changes include:
- Notes list: added option to completely hide tags (in "Options/Notes List")
- Added "Options/Search/Start New Search on Ctrl+F" option
- Added "Options/Search/Multi-step reset on Esc" option
- Store path to the PDF file in the Link field when clipping from Adobe Reader (works only for PDF files opened by double-clicking)
- Editor: numbered list lost on copy paste when text font is large
- Editor: crash when trying to delete a note which was deleted from the notes list
- Search: auto moving window doesn't work correctly in Win XP and Win 7 with Classic theme
- Links to PDF files were not extracted when clipping from Adobe Reader 11
- Editor: pasted text was highlighted if system had non-white background
- Editor: whole lines could be trimmed on save
- Fixed possible crash upon program exit
- Untagged count was not updated after deleting tag using tag's context menu
Lacks some of the more sophisticated options of other organisers, but as a no-frills note-taking tool works perfectly.

Can you believe that February 2012 is already here? Perhaps it seems like yesterday that you made a New Year's resolution to get financially fit, yet somehow you have already gotten off course. Perhaps your goals were too high or you just need a nudge to get back on track. Consider the following three tips to stay focused on your financial fitness goals.
1. Review your budget for the year
Start with an audit of your January expenses, paying special attention to bills that are paid automatically. Are you already spending more than budgeted in any category? Are you paying for items or services you don't need? Review bills from your house phone carrier, cell phone plan, satellite/cable provider and others for any charges or features you don't need or didn't know you had. For example, are your paying for features like call waiting, extra cell phone minutes or special cable channels that you don't want or need?
2. Put any extra money to work for you
If you received a salary increase, bonus or expect a tax refund, put a plan in place to direct that income before you make a credit card purchase on impulse. For instance, you can commit to pay down debt (like the credit card with the highest interest rate) or direct dollars to a savings plan. If you don't plan to put "extra" money to work for you (no matter how little), chances are you will spend and not feel like you received more.
3. Establish your budget for giving gifts in December 2012
It's never a surprise. The holidays and accompanying pressure to give arrives every single year. Budget for it now! If you don't, the credit card bills of January 2013 will create more financial stress. Not having a gift budget will likely mean you will spend more money on gifts that you can afford. Plus, if you start planning now, you will be able to save throughout the year.
Small changes in your daily spending (and saving) can keep you on a path to becoming financially fit.
What steps do you plan to follow this year to stick to your budget?

Hey Karen – thanks for the info…may just have to buzz over there today. Can you please advise where to find the coupon you mentioned? Thanks!
Atlanta, GA
We went to the outlet store up 400N, and they only had the smallest and largest sizes left on clearance – everything else was still full price, even jeans! I bought online last week during the sale, much better prices than the outlet!
I found it on my phone and maybe CP web page. They tried to say it was a online only coupon at first but then still took it. We got tights for girls for $.50, about 20 pairs. This was in Gettesburg PA. And to think I was not going to go. LOL
Feel free to use code T2KFF113 for 20% off entire purchase. I received it in a mailer to share with friends :) It says online web code is valid for 3 redemptions, so the first 3 to use it get it!!!! Enjoy :)

Barack Obama-isms: The Biggest Obama Gaffes
President Barack Obama may be the president, but he still flubs his lines like most politicians. These are the best "Obama-isms" as far as we can tell. These are the 44th President's classic gaffes and funny outtakes. From his time in the Senate to his time during the 2008 elections, President Obama has commited a number of verbal blunders and we expect to hear more from our President until the end of his first, and possibly only, term.

My Preferences
The JavaFX 1.2 SDK provides many useful utility classes such as the Properties class used to access and store name/value pairs or the Storage class used to store the data locally on the client system.
So far the JavaFX programming language does not support hash tables to store data of any type, but you can always use the Properties class for this purpose. For a start, let's create methods to put and get numbers. For example,
public function put(key: String, value: Number) {
put(key, value.toString())
public function get(key: String, default: Number) {
var value = get(key);
if (value != null) try {
return Number.valueOf(value)
catch (exception) {
Note that the
put method converts a number into a string and the
get method tries to convert a string into a number. For primitive data types, this is done rather easily. For more complex cases, you can develop your own implementation of the Converter interface and use it to convert an object into a string and vice versa. Let it be your homework exercise.
Now add an ability to store properties automatically. I decided that at the moment of initialization, the class should read all properties from the storage and put them back when an application terminates. This task is very simple.
var storage: Storage;
postinit {
storage = Storage {
source: source
if (storage.resource.readable) {
function store() {
if (storage.resource.writable) {
Consider an example of how to use the Preferences class. Create a simple application that stores the position and size of a window. Launch this application. Move the window, resize it and then close the application. Launch the same application again. You see that the window is located where you left it in the previous session. It is convenient, isn't it?
class PersistentStage extends Stage {
def preferences = Preferences {
source: "bounds"
} on replace {
def s = Screen.primary.visualBounds;
width = preferences.get("W", s.width / 2);
height = preferences.get("H", s.height / 2);
x = preferences.get("X", s.minX + (s.width - width) / 2);
y = preferences.get("Y", s.minY + (s.height - height) / 2);
override var x on replace {preferences.put("X", x )}
override var y on replace {preferences.put("Y", y )}
override var width on replace {preferences.put("W", width )}
override var height on replace {preferences.put("H", height)}
Later I will improve the Application class from the previous post by adding a support for properties storage.
