I am a Voyager fan and it took me about 2 months to finish the 7 seasons. I will be onto DS9 next (haven't seen it yet but I'll be watching on Netflix).
I love Voyager (unlike some Trek fans), but Endgame is one of my least favorites. Are there any Voyager fans out there who DON'T want to change how Endgame was made? lol

APP OF THE DAY: Great British Chefs - Summertime review (iPad and iPhone)
The Olympic Games may be on but, before you get too tempted to order your sixth takeaway in a row, we've got a little taster for you at Pocket-lint on App of the Day.
Great British Chefs Summertime
- Platform
- iOS
- Price
- £1.99
- Where
- iTunes
Another six months, another release of a Great British Chefs recipe compilation for the iPad and iPhone. Were it any other app, we'd probably be complaining about it but, well, with GBC, it's just hard to say no. Besides, our guests are beginning to give us strange looks when we serve up festive quails with chestnut stuffing.
So, this time around it's the turn of the fairer season with Great British Chefs - Summertime. As per expected usual, the app hooks in a host of Michelin starred chefs (this time 21) and gets them to tell us how to make a whole meal comprising of three or so dishes, and all top quality, naturally.
Just so you don't muck up the instructions, it's all broken down fairly simply including voice commands, places where you can make your own notes and even a shopping list where you can add what you need straight to the Ocado food delivery service. On top of that, you also get links to profiles on each chef, what their restaurants look like and where you can find them.
As ever, it's a really well put together app which is well worth the download to iPad if you can stomach the fee. There's top-notch photography, delicious food and very smooth navigation. What's more, a minimum of £1.20 per app sale goes to charity. Not a bad package for 105 recipes with which to wow your dinner guests.

Barnaby talks to banks, Salvos visit desperate farmersBy Jane Norman, Kerrin Thomas and ABC's AM program, Friday February 7, 2014 - 20:39 EDT
The member for New England and Agriculture Minister, Barnaby Joyce, has revealed he's held talks with all the nation's banks as part of a drought relief package he's developing for Cabinet.
On Thursday, the Prime Minister flagged plans to bring forward the introduction of a farm income support package, scheduled to commence in July.
Mr Joyce has told ABC's AM program it's not in the interests of financial institutions to foreclose on farmers.
"Well, because people understand that it's a viable industry and they want to make sure it works in the long run," he said.
"There is certainly a viable industry there and if we just add water we'll get back to it [because] we're just lacking the final water because it's a drought."
Meantime, a rural chaplain with the Salvation Army says he's worried depression is on the rise among farmers battling the drought.
Peter Ridley has visited Narrabri, Pilliga, Gwabegar and Burren Junction offering emotional support to struggling farm households.
He says he is seeing signs of depression in some landholders and it's clear they need to talk over what's happening to them.
"We're just chatting with farmers on farm, talking to them about how they're going, and what's happening for them and listening to their story because we think that's very important," he said.
"Depression in the bush has really come back with a vengeance and we want to ensure we catch people who have the beginning signs of depression early, so that it doesn't escalate."
Peter Ridley says farmers are pretty tough but he says they're telling him this drought is one of the worst they've ever seen.
"Farmers are the most resilient people I've ever met, but this drought is different; in this drought the biggest problem for our farmers is water," he said.
"We faced this problem in the last drought, but not to this degree, and now farmers are running out of water for stock and they're running out of water to drink themselves."

SATURDAY, Dec. 10 (HealthDay News) -- Giving low-dose aspirin to patients after they've received stronger blood thinners for dangerous clots in the lungs could cut their odds of redeveloping the clots, a new study finds.
The clots in question are venous thromboembolisms (VTEs). These can include both the leg clots known as deep-vein thromboses, or pulmonary embolisms, clots in the lungs that can cause rapid pulse, shortness of breath, chest pain and even death.
Patients with VTE are typically given anticoagulants such as warfarin (Coumadin) to help prevent future clots and dissolve existing clots in the veins. However, about 15 to 20 percent of VTE patients redevelop blood clots within two years after completing such treatment, according to background information in the study.
Extending blood thinner treatment with powerful medicines such as warfarin can prevent recurrences, but it also carries an increased risk of bleeding. So, the longer term use of aspirin as an alternative therapy against recurrent blood clots in VTE patients has been advocated but is controversial. That's because aspirin is typically used to prevent clots in the arteries, not the veins, and studies have yielded mixed findings about the aspirin's effectiveness against VTEs.
This new study examined whether two years of low-dose (100 milligrams per day) aspirin therapy after an initial six to 12 months of warfarin therapy could prevent recurrent blood clots in VTE patients. The patients were followed for up to three years after completing their aspirin therapy.
The Italian researchers reported that blood clots recurred in 28 of the 205 patients who took aspirin and in 43 of the 197 patients who took a placebo -- 6.6 percent versus 11.2 percent per patient-year, respectively.
Major bleeding occurred in one patient in each group and there was a similar rate of non-major bleeding.
The study was scheduled to be presented Saturday at

Adds Hsing Liu, Director of Operations, Sophia's Heart Foundation, "This program is a great way to engage Danny's fans across the country and utilize Wisconsin Vision's advanced, quality vision care to benefit area children. We hope to eventually grow this program in other communities."
The program will initially start with a selected school yet to be determined within the Milwaukee Public School system. Gokey's first pairs of eyeglasses will go online for auction early next year. As Gokey donates his old pairs, Wisconsin Vision, as part of its relationship with the recording artist known for his passion for eyewear, will replenish Gokey's vast collection with up to 60 new frames. Gokey's relationship with the optical company began earlier this year. Since then, he's been featured in Wisconsin Vision advertising and social media. His first store visit attracted about 1,000 fans in just a few short hours.
"With Thanksgiving and the holidays coming up, we wanted to use my visit today to help give back," Gokey says. "We're so grateful to the many fans that have been so generous with both their time and hearts to support the community."
Wisconsin Vision estimates they've collected 500 pairs of glasses and 800 food items for the Lions Recycle for Sight program and Hunger Task Force during the past six weeks and expects to collect much more after today's Gokey visit.
Danny Gokey, a Milwaukee native and 19 Recordings/RCA Nashville recording artist, made chart history this year with the release of his debut album, My Best Days, delivering the best first-week sales of any debut country male in 18 years. His current single is "I Will Not Say Goodbye." For more information, visit http://www.dannygokey.com.
Wisconsin Vision, the state's largest independently owned optical company, has 22 locations and operates 5 locations in Illinois and Indiana as Heartland Vision

For January 18, 2005, ADV Films will release SAIYUKI: REQUIEM, THE MOTION PICTURE and FARSCAPE: STARBURST EDITION, COLLECTION TWO.
SAIYUKI: REQUIEM, THE MOTION PICTURE is the sequel to the hit anime series. Based on the original 16th-century Chinese novel XIYOUJI by Wu Cheng-En, SAIYUKI first began to take shape with an animated version of the tale in the late 1960s. The current incarnation features a colorful cast of characters based on the popular manga by Kazuya Minekura and features the storyboard and direction work of Hayato Date (NARUTO) along with Dentsu Inc. (FINAL FANTASY UNLIMITED) and Studio Pierrot (THE SUPER MILK-CHAN SHOW, NARUTO).
When the unspeakable evil of the demon world begins to plague mankind, powerful heroes are needed to defend the earth from these atrocities. The Sanzo party has always been haunted by the past, and most of the time theyve been able to deal with their ghosts. But when they enter The House of Dougan, they may not be so lucky. Lured to the mysterious shrine by a beautiful girl, Sanzo, Goku, Gojyo, and Hakkai become ensnared in a trap of dangerous shikigami, murderous doppelgangers, and a malevolent monster who has destroyed his own soul for a demented purpose.
SAIYUKI: REQUIEM, THE MOTION PICTURE ($29.98) is a DVD-only release including a 95-minute feature presented in English 5.1 and Japanese 5.1 with English subtitles. Extras include: character profiles and art gallery, interview with creator Kazuya Minekura, Japanese promos and TV spots, voice actor commentary with the men of SAIYUKI, reversible cover, fold-out poster insert and ADV previews.
The second expanded and updated volume of FARSCAPE is a two-disc collection, which includes seven complete episodes, in-depth video profiles of the cast, three newly recorded audio commentaries with the cast and crew, and tons of new behind-the-scenes information.
Lost, but not at all alone, astronaut John Crichton (Ben Browder) is trapped in a distant part of the universe -- where the rules from home dont apply. On board a massive, living ship named Moya, hes trying his best to get along with a bizarre crew of escaped alien prisoners who cant agree on much of anything. Hes intrigued by the beautiful, and fiercely independent Aeryn Sun (Claudia Black), a soldier deemed contaminated by her strict society the Peacekeepers. All Crichton knows for sure is hes trying to find a way home.
Produced in Australia by The Jim Henson Company and Hallmark Entertainment, FARSCAPE has been called The Best Sci-Fi on TV, by TV GUIDE, and hailed as TVs Best Space Series by USA TODAY. FARSCAPE also received the Saturn Award for Best Syndicated/Cable Series three years in a row (2001, 2002, 2003).
FARSCAPE: STARBURST EDITION COLLECTION TWO ($24.98) is a DVD-only release, including seven complete episodes on two double-sided discs, with audio presented in English 5.1 and 2.0. Episodes in this collection: That Old Black Magic, DNA Mad Scientist, They've Got a Secret, Till the Blood Runs Clear, Rhapsody in Blue, The Flax and Jeremiah Crichton. In the 12 years since its inception, ADV Films has become the #1 producer-distributor of anime for the North American market and has also developed a leadership position in the U.K. Parent company, A.D. Vision Inc., encompasses a multitude of complementary media divisions, spanning publishing, television, licensing and merchandising and continues to expand into new areas. Headquartered in Houston, the company has offices in Europe and Japan. For more information, visit www.advfilms.com.

Ashton Kutcher's 'Jobs' Biopic Gets New Release Date
In March, Open Road Films pushed back the movie's April 19 release.
The Steve Jobs biopic Jobs, starring Ashton Kutcher, has a new release date of Aug. 16.
Distributor Open Road Films initially scheduled the movie to hit theaters April 19, the 37th anniversary of the month Apple Computer was founded. But in March, it was announced that the release would be pushed back.
PHOTOS: Ashton Kutcher's Career Through the Years
The project, fully financed and produced by Mark Hulme's Five Star Feature Films, centers on Jobs, a college dropout who became one of the 20th century's most famous and successful innovators.
Directed by Joshua Michael Stern from a script by Matt Whiteley, Jobs chronicles the Apple co-founder's life from 1971-2001. It also stars Dermot Mulroney, Josh Gad, Lukas Haas, J.K. Simmons and Matthew Modine.
The Aug. 16 release puts the biopic up against other openers including The Weinstein Co.'s The Butler, from The Paperboy director Lee Daniels; Universal's teen superhero sequel Kick-Ass 2; and Relativity's thriller Paranoia.

Brandon Sun - ONLINE EDITION
Local economy better but...
Some things will go wrong, others ought to happen but might not
There's a case to be made heading into 2014 that the local economy is in better shape than it's been in for many years.
Traditional sectors such as manufacturing and food processing have found religion and become more efficient and innovative, the ag sector is stronger than ever, the finance and insurance business just keeps getting bigger, the travel and tourism industry will soon have a bona fide major attraction in the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and positive developments continue to emerge in the technology sector. But since the variation between the highs to the lows in the Manitoba economy covers a pretty narrow band, it's not likely the new year will produce Alberta-style growth.
Having said that, here's a mixture of predictions sure to go wrong, things that ought to happen if there were any justice in the world, developments already taking place that should continue along with some fantasies for 2014.
Downtown development: Winnipeg still has to work to do overcoming its old reputation that had an exclamation mark put on it when the Jets 1.0 left in 1996. But serious progress in downtown development is occurring with the Jets once again a featured player. With the RBC Convention Centre expansion underway, the developer is mandated to build a four-star hotel and everyone is waiting for news of something to be built likely at the site of the old Carlton Inn. Fortress Real Developments won't start construction of its SkyCity Centre but it will become committed in 2014 and the careful folks at Longboat will also firm up their So/Po project.
Coming and going: The history of head office mobility in Winnipeg has traditionally been in one direction -- out of the city. The latest was IMRIS Inc., the city's best new high-tech business in years, which de-camped to Minneapolis last year. Styles in corporate structures are always changing and there's arguably fewer highly centralized head offices than there used to be. But maybe this could be the year for a new home-grown corporate head office to emerge downtown. Just to say, two of the city's long-standing head office entities that have shown the most consistent growth over the course of several years now -- the Boyd Group and Exchange Income Corp. -- currently toil in suburban locations.
Not going anywhere: There's no company in Winnipeg that's been rumoured to be a take-over target longer than MTS has. But since that chatter has been going on for so long you could argue those rumours aren't really worth that much. When MTS announced a proposed sale of its Allstream division last year the analysts dusted off their takeover scenarios once again. But with Ottawa nixing that deal, those bets are now off. In 2014 MTS will dig in and re-engage its Allstream growth strategy. The take-over rumours aren't likely gone for good but will subside in 2014.
The song remains the same: More than any other province in the country, Manitoba's economic growth rate comes closest to mirroring that of the country as a whole. Which is to say it's not going to grow too quick during boom times or shrink too much in a recession. Many experts say Manitoba's aggressive provincial nominee immigration program played a significant role in the positive trajectory the economy has enjoyed for the past few years. That program is not growing, so now it's up to the fundamental strengths of the diversified economy to start blossoming. However it plays out no one should expect anything but a growth rate somewhere between 2.0 and 2.9 per cent in 2014.
What won't be built this year: The city's two biggest and most successful hotel developers -- Lakeview and Canada Inns -- are also famous for saying they're going to develop projects that don't get done or take years to pull off. They both effectively had openings in 2013 with Canad Inns Destination Centre Health Sciences Centre finally opening and the grand opening of The Grand by Lakeview at the Richardson Airport scheduled for this month. But in 2014 we predict Lakeview will continue to not build its much-promised hotel across from the convention centre at Edmonton Street and St. Mary Avenue and it won't be surprising if Canad Inns holds off another year before building its McPhillips Station property.
Crash and burn: We take no joy in predicting in 2014 Tribal Councils Investment Group will be closed and dismantled. The ambitious and unique First Nations-owned investment firm might have become a little too pleased with its track record and succumbed to some of the hazards of success. Management was canned but the lenders wanted out at the same time and it looks like the new board may have run out of time to find new bankers. The jewels in the crown are still attractive so look for new owners of the northern Pepsi distributor, Arctic Beverages and the popular rib joint, Famous Dave's in 2014.
Crude idea: You have to feel for Omnitrax a little in that it owns an amazing asset that some day might become very valuable -- a railway through northern Canada connecting to the country's only northern saltwater port. But right now, the company is desperate for cargo. Its latest scheme is to ship crude oil by rail to the port. There's so much opposition to the plan from different quarters, it's bound to be a controversial story throughout 2014. The latest crude oil derailment in North Dakota is not going to make it any easier for Omnitrax.
The biggest to the smallest: 2014 will prove to be a big year for several companies. Everyone knows James Richardson and Sons is one of the largest private companies in the country but it has not got as much attention as it should have after quietly growing much larger both in the agricultural sector and in the financial services. Look for even more muscle flexing in 2014. At other end of the spectrum, there are a number of smaller bio-tech and info-tech companies on the verge of bigger and better things such as Miraculins, Kane Biotech, Cubresa, Marsala Biotech, Wolf Trax, Invenia, Reclaim IO and Joist.
Métis millions: Settlement talks are expected to start this year regarding the landmark Supreme Court decision last March which ruled the Canadian government failed to live up to the promises it made to the Metis people when it negotiated for Manitoba's entry into Canadian Confederation in 1870. Manitoba Metis Federation president David Chartrand has high hopes a substantial capital infusion is in the works. These will be tough negotiations.
New Flyer express: After the 2008 financial crisis, municipalities throughout the U.S. shelved plans to upgrade their transit fleets. In the meantime one of the five North American bus makers shut down and New Flyer bought another with the help of a major investment in New Flyer by the large Brazilian bus company, Marcopolo. In 2014, it will be poised to start reaping the benefits of its well-managed operations and top-notch product line that will extend to mid-sized Midi buses this year.

|Reviews for Stregoni Benefici, Unico
| kiwihipp chapter 21 . 3/10
That was really beautiful, despite all the horrors that you describe!
| Jessica314 chapter 21 . 3/8
(thanks for the link- it didn't work, but I found it using those words as search terms. I love learning about Civil War stuff. So sad but true, how medicine was so far behind military technology, in that war especially)
I love the idea of Carlisle donning an army medic's uniform and sneaking into camp! He must have seen (and done, unfortunately) so many horrible things- tons of amputations, especially. He really has come a long way in terms of resisting blood, to be able to manage that!
I've always wondered what the exact "resolution" of vampire vision is. Like, I assume Carlisle can see some organisms that are invisible to the human eye, but probably not bacteria, right?
Oh, I just love Carlisle's humility here at the end. He doesn't realize that the beauty of his selfless, kind heart makes him far more a "man" that any of these mortals around him will ever be :)
Great job as always! I'm so glad you gave us a civil war scene :) If you decided to do another we would all love to meet Garrett in Yorktown! (the new screenplay is okay, but I bet you could do much better!)
| KJOHN chapter 21 . 3/7
I love your writing and attention to detail. Great chapter. I will wait for however long it takes for you to bring us these interesting little historical tidbits that you so expertly weave into Carlisle's story.

Welcome back!
This was a nice interlude in Carlisle's life. To have visitors and be able to show them what you like is always great!
| Jessica314 chapter 20 . 8/30/2014
Beautiful job, as always! It's so funny to think of the vampire ladies with their big dresses and parasols, running across the American frontier LOL! I also like the idea of drugging the horses slightly. Good idea!
Poor Timothy... is he never going to see his family again? That's so sad :(
So it looks like Carlisle's loneliness is still growing, though this trip with his friends must have been a relief. Looks like he is beginning to wonder if the only way to have a companion is to make one. Still a while to wait, though! poor lonely vegetarian :(
Great chapter! Thanks for updating!
| Jessica314 chapter 18 . 7/1/2014
This was a fun one! I bet Emmett is going to love hearing about this someday :) Although now that I think about it, maybe Carlisle wouldn't tell him- it's not wise to give Emmett any ideas LOL!
Well, sadly (or happily?) I'm caught up to the current point, so... I'm ready for more! Seriously, don't worry about how long it takes to update. It's not like this is a story with cliffhangers killing us between waits :) I do love it, though! At first I skipped over this one because there was no Edward or anyone else, but Eternity made me fall in love with Carlisle, and with your writing. Your ideas (especially in this "collection of one-shots" type of writing) are so creative and I just love the history that you build them around. I feel so deeply for Carlisle and for his growing loneliness (I notice you're having him think about it more often as you go on). I'm looking forward to a Civil War chapter, if you're headed that way soon. And though I do feel sorry for Carlisle, I'm very much looking forward to his increasing depression and loneliness and how you bring it about, since I know that happy endings are on their way in less than a century now!
| Jessica314 chapter 16 . 7/1/2014
well, Carlisle has come a long way- no mention of terrible thirst anymore. Good for him!
man, it's going to get much easier when Edward's around, to know when it's time to leave town.
| Jessica314 chapter 15 . 7/1/2014
Back in merry old England! I love these brushing-shoulders scenes, especially when we get peeks into famous people's minds like this.
aw Esme foreshadowing again! poor lonely Carlisle!
| Jessica314 chapter 14 . 7/1/2014
I like Prudence's visions of airplanes :) This was a cool twist on Alice's talent- and you're right, I never got the impression that Carlisle was too surprised by Alice. I'm almost to that point in my own series right now (I'm writing prequels) and to be frank, it's going to be rather disappointing to have the meeting go so smoothly. Oh well, canon is canon!
uh oh... I'm nervous about the green door thing! What's going to happen!
| Jessica314 chapter 13 . 7/1/2014
Garrett! I was hoping this would be coming up soon! That's a really cool approach, having Carlisle be the first vampire he meets, and attacking him! What a cool idea!
Man, Carlisle didn't pull any punches did he? Garrett doesn't seem to mind, though. As long as there's Redcoats to kill, he's good :)
| Jessica314 chapter 12 . 7/1/2014
Liza! :) I'm normally not interested in OCs but I just love her, for her eccentric, stuff personality as well as how much she's done for Carlisle. Just seeing him smile because of her visit makes me so happy. He's been so lonely in America, meeting tons of vampires but hardly making any friends (and completely failing to convert anyone to vegetarianism)
It's sweet, the balance that you let Carlisle's character strike between his distaste and disapproval for Liza's diet, and his friendship and tolerance of her choice. I love it :)
| Jessica314 chapter 11 . 7/1/2014
This is the kind of situation that really shows the different between Carlisle and young Edward.
aw. Esme foreshadowing :)
| Jessica314 chapter 10 . 6/30/2014
this was a really interesting look into the vampire world. It seems a bit more crowded than it does in later years- I guess vampires don't tend to stick around as much, the busier the night life of a city gets?
oh poor Carlisle! A century from now he'll STILL be alone :(
| Jessica314 chapter 9 . 6/30/2014
I'm glad you're taking it slow with Carlisle's growing resistance to human blood. it makes him seem more.. well I guess human isn't the right word :) I guess newborn Edward will just be in awe of Carlisle's control, not seeing the centuries of effort and suffering that went into it.
| Jessica314 chapter 8 . 6/30/2014
that was scary for a minute! I like how you're making up a few new vampires for Carlisle to run into, and this was a neat twist, having him feel like he was briefly in danger of being killed. It's so funny to see people of him as a "harmless lunatic", though I'm sure that's what the Volturi thought of him, as well.

SAN DIEGO Environmental organizations sued the National Marine Fisheries Service on Monday to demand it force the Navy to consider alternatives to its five-year plan that will intensify sonar use off Southern California and Hawaii.
Earthjustice, representing several groups, filed the lawsuit in federal court in Honolulu only hours after the federal agency said it had decided to grant the Navy permits to move ahead with its plans for training and testing in the Pacific.
Navy officials estimate its activities would have a negligible impact on marine mammal populations.
Environmentalists dispute that and favor creating zones that would be off-limits to biologically sensitive areas. They also want the Navy to avoid training in certain spots during the months when they are rich in marine life.
"The science is clear: Sonar and live-fire training in the ocean harms marine mammals," said Marsha Green of the Ocean Mammal Institute, which is among the groups suing. "There are safer ways to conduct Navy exercises that include time and place restrictions to avoid areas known to be vital for marine mammals' feeding, breeding and resting."
The Navy estimates its activities could inadvertently kill 186 whales and dolphins off the East Coast and 155 off Hawaii and Southern California, mostly from explosives.
It calculates more than 11,000 serious injuries off the East Coast and 2,000 off Hawaii and Southern California, along with nearly 2 million minor injuries, such as temporary hearing loss, off each coast. It also predicts marine mammals might change their behavior – such as swimming in a different direction – in 27 million instances.
The National Marine Fisheries Service granted the permits for the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico last month. The Pacific permit was the final one.
Environmentalists won a small victory in September when a federal judge ruled that the agency did not consider the latest science when it granted permits last year.
In Monday's ruling, the agency said it would review the latest scientific data yearly with the Navy to determine if enough is being done to mitigate the risks.
"The Navy is committed to complying with environmental laws and protecting the environment," Navy spokesman Kenneth Hess said about the lawsuit.

Contact Coach Statham:
- Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
- Office: (610) 330-5458
Mick Statham begins his ninth year at the helm of the Lafayette women's soccer program. Last year, Statham coached Third Team All-Patriot League selection Jaclyn Giordano, who was also on the Academic All-Patriot League Team. Academically, Statham's 2012 team led the Patriot League with 22 Academic Honor Roll selections and in 2013 posted a combined 3.5 team grade-point average.
In 2012, Statham mentored a pair of All-Patriot League selections, First-Team choice Jill Dozier '12 and classmate Lauren Smedley, who was recognized with a place on the Academic Team.
In 2011, Lafayette posted a 9-6-2 mark and earned the second seed in the Patriot League Tournament.Statham collected a pair of personal accolades as a result of the season, including being named Patriot League Coach of the Year. The award was the first for a Lafayette head women's soccer coach in the 21-year history of the program. In May of 2012, Statham received the inaugural Maroon Club Athletic Staff Achievement Award, which is voted on by the Maroon Club Executive Committee and given to a full-time athletics department staff member who has demonstrated outstanding service to Lafayette College and its athletics program.
In addition to claiming the number two seed, Lafayette added three more accomplishments that were program firsts. A perfect 6-0-0 home record and a 4-2-1 Patriot League mark highlighted the campaign, as well as four players earning All-Patriot League selections.
In 2010, the turnaround began to translate to wins on the field as Statham led the Leopards to their most wins (6) during his tenure and the program's most since 2002.
Before taking the reins at Lafayette, Statham spent the 2005 season as the top assistant coach at Florida State, where he helped guide the women's soccer program to a 20-4-1 record and a Final Four berth. For his efforts, he was named Regional Assistant Coach of the Year by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA).
Prior to coaching at Florida State, Statham spent one season as an assistant coach at the University of Pennsylvania, helping the Quakers to a 9-6-2 finish. In 2003-04, Statham was an assistant for the men's soccer program at Philadelphia University.
In addition to coaching at the college level, Statham served as team administrator and assistant coach for the Philadelphia Charge of the WUSA, as well as the former Director of Coaching and Player Development for the FC Delco Soccer Club in Downingtown, Pa, from 1999 to 2003. Then, in 2004, he worked as a staff member with the US U-19 Women's National Team.
Statham was the Head Girls Varsity Coach at Radnor High School (1997-2003) in Radnor, Pa., where he guided the team to its only PIAA state title.
He spent 1995-96 as the head men's soccer coach at Mount St. Mary College in Newburgh, N.Y.
A 1992 graduate of Franklin Pierce College (N.H.), Statham lettered four years, helping the Ravens to the NCAA Division II Tournament three times. This included a trip to the Final Four in 1991, when he was a team captain. An All-New England selection in 1990 for Franklin Pierce, Statham earned a degree in communications in 1992. Statham is a member of the Franklin Pierce College Hall of Fame following his induction in 2008 and his 1991 squad was inducted in 2007.
Before attending Franklin Pierce, Statham spent four years with one of England's most prestigious football clubs, Blackburn Rovers. In 1987-88 he was a professional youth coach with Bury Football Club and gained his English Football Association coaching license.
Statham currently serves on the staff of the U.S. National Training Centers for Pennsylvania.
The Manchester, England native and his wife, Kelly, reside on College Hill and have four children; Ryan, Matthew, Megan and Emma.

First stop for many has to be Times Square. This bustling square is the nucleus of the city, with those iconic illuminated billboards fighting for your attention. Just off Times Square you'll find the Broadway theatre district and, whether you choose tickets for a classic like Les Miserables or Phantom of the Opera, or a more modern spectacle like Wicked or The Book of Mormon, seeing a show on Broadway, one of the world's most celebrated theatre hubs, is a must.
Shopaholics will love 5th Avenue. Stroll down and pop into Tiffany & Co a la Audrey Hepburn, or make like Rachel from Friends with a spree in Bloomingdales. For those holidaying with lucky little ones, FAO Schwarz, the legendary kids toy store (as seen in BIG) is an essential stop, or why not follow the lead of the NYC cool kids with a browse of the SoHo shops?
Head to the Statue of Liberty for a cultural and iconic day out. This colossal neoclassical structure is located on Liberty Island (a short boat ride away) and it is well worth the visit. Make sure you also visit Elis Island to check out the Immigration Museum – a fantastic social history of New York
The Empire State Building is a must. Open until late, so don't worry about queuing, the views from the observation deck are staggering. You can see the entire city and beyond while imagining King Kong holding onto the tip of the tower! It's definitely worth getting a guided tour and try to aim for when skies are clear.
Central Park is a fantastic experience all year round. With a zoo located in the middle that houses all sorts of animals – including polar bears! – a stroll around will make you feel like a real New Yorker. You'll be met by magical little gardens and shady inlets of incredible flowers and bushes.

With so much to do in New York, it's hard to pick a few things out. Much of the city centre, though, is walkable, so you'll be surprised how much you can do in a day.

Topeka, KS–Collective Brands posted today a 43% increase in first quarter profit, buoyed by international sales growth of 23.1% from its Payless Shoe chain and its Performance and Lifestyle Group (PLG).
"We experienced strong global growth in a number of our Performance and Lifestyle Group brands, and had excellent sales performance at Payless International to drive strong earnings and cash flow for the company," said Matthew Rubel, chairman, eo and president.
Sales at the company's Payless domestic unit, which makes up for more than two-thirds of its business, fell 4% during the quarter. "We entered the first quarter with a very lean inventory position of clearance merchandise at Payless which negatively affected the Payless Domestic sales performance in February," Rubel added.
Collective Brands, which is the holding company of Payless ShoeSource and Stride Rite, posted net income of $54.2 million, or 83 cents share, up from $38.0 million, or 59 cents a share, a year earlier. Revenue at Collective Brands, which bought shoe maker Stride Rite last year, rose marginally to $878.8 million.
Market analysts report that the company, whose brands include Saucony, Sperry Top-Sider and Keds, benefited from early warm weather in the first quarter which helped spurred sales of sandals, and from the toning footwear trend. The firm added that the company continues to boost its fashion appeal, most recently adding a new clover charm necklace inspired by designer Patricia Field's work on the movie "Sex and the City 2."
