Teams hope for NCAA berths this season
Maybe some rebranding is in order for the NIT.
The joke about the once-proud postseason tournament is that it's nothing more than the Not-Invited Tournament.
Certainly, the NIT, the College Basketball Invitational and the CollegeInsider.com Tournament are consolation prizes for missing the NCAA tournament.
But for many teams, the NIT could be called the Soon-to-Be-Invited Tournament instead. Of the 32 teams in the 2008 NIT, 17 reached the 2009 NCAA tournament. And Washington and Utah made the NCAA field last season after playing in the inaugural CBI in 2008. The CIT began last season and doesn't have a track record of producing NCAA teams.
As for the teams relegated to the "lesser" tournaments in 2009, here is our list of teams that could parlay those appearances into an invitation to the Big Dance this season:
Looking good for a 2010 NCAA bid
Baylor: Good luck figuring out this team. Baylor collapsed in Big 12 play last season, finishing the regular season on a 2-10 skid. In the postseason, though, coach Scott Drew tweaked the lineup, and the team showed more commitment defensively in reaching the final of both the Big 12 tournament and the NIT. Curtis Jerrells and Kevin Rogers are gone, but LaceDarius Dunn, Tweety Carter and Josh Lomers, who all played key roles in the postseason, are back.
Creighton: The Bluejays had the best overall record in the Missouri Valley and tied for the regular-season title last season, but a second-round loss to Illinois State in the league tourney knocked them out of the running for the NCAA tournament. Creighton, the MVC's most consistent program, should make another run for the league title despite the loss of MVC player of the year Booker Woodfox. P'Allen Stinnett, Kenny Lawson and incoming four-star recruit Andrew Bock are the players to watch.
Georgetown: The Hoyas won the Big East title in 2008, then tumbled to a tie for 11th in the league last season. The Hoyas should make a similarly dramatic trip back up the standings this season. First, the conference shouldn't be as tough. Second, sophomore Greg Monroe should continue to develop into one of the best centers in the nation. And the "key departures" won't hurt too much. DaJuan Summers' decision to enter the NBA draft wasn't devastating, and point guard Jessie Sapp had lost his job by the end of the season.
Jacksonville: The Dolphins won the Atlantic Sun regular-season title before losing in the conference tournament final to East Tennessee State. That's still an accomplishment, as JU was 1-26 as recently as 2005-06. Entering his fifth season as coach, Cliff Warren has completed the rebuilding process. He returns his top three scorers, including first-team all-league guard Ben Smith.
Kansas State: The Wildcats remained in the NCAA tournament discussion until the final days of the season. Ultimately, a weak non-conference schedule and a first-round loss to Texas in the Big 12 tournament did them in. Darren Kent is the only major loss, and there's a good recruiting class coming in.
Kentucky: Maybe you've heard about the Wildcats this offseason. John Calipari is the new coach and the Wildcats landed the top signing class led by the nation's top overall recruit, John Wall. Kentucky will open the season as a top-three team, and the NIT shouldn't see the Wildcats for years to come.
Tulsa: Has Memphis' domination of Conference USA ended with Calipari's departure? Tulsa returns four starters to a 25-11 team. Behind 7-footer Jerome Jordan and guard Ben Uzoh, the Golden Hurricane could end Memphis' streak of four consecutive C-USA titles.
Washington State: The Cougars lost coach Tony Bennett to Virginia, and Taylor Rochestie and Aron Baynes ran out of eligibility. That's the bad news. But Ken Bone was a home-run hire as coach. He'll be able to rebuild around sophomores Klay Thompson and DeAngelo Casto. The Pac-10 won't be as strong this season, giving Bone's new team a solid shot at an NCAA bid.
An NCAA bid is possible
Niagara: The Purple Eagles need to beat MAAC pace-setter Siena (they went 1-2 against the Saints last season), but returning seniors Tyrone Lewis and Bilal Benn give them reason for optimism. Niagara finished second in the MAAC last season, thanks to a high-powered offense.
Notre Dame: Luke Harangody's return gives the Irish NCAA hope, but they must replace 3-point threats Kyle McAlarney and Ryan Ayers.
Penn State: Talor Battle is the only key component of Penn State's "Big Three" to return. Jamelle Cornley and Stanley Pringle will be missed by the defending NIT champs.
San Diego State: The Aztecs were in the at-large mix last season and must replace three of their top four scorers. But a big-time recruiting class will keep them in the hunt in the Mountain West. Malcolm Thomas, Tyrone Shelley (a transfer from Pepperdine who will be eligible this season) and Kawhi Leonard are the newcomers to watch.
South Carolina: The Gamecocks couldn't make the NCAA tournament out of a weak SEC last season, but the bulk of the team returns to try again this season. It will be tougher this season because of a vastly improved Kentucky team.
UNLV: Don't count out Lon Kruger's Rebels, but UNLV needs to find the right mix in the starting lineup. Three transfers and five freshmen are expected to make an impact.
Virginia Tech: Malcolm Delaney is an underrated guard, but the Hokies have to recover from the loss of A.D. Vassallo. They look to be about the sixth- or seventh-best team in the ACC, but that might be enough to get them an NCAA bid.
Weber State: The Wildcats dominated the Big Sky Conference last season, winning the regular-season title by four games. But they were shocked in the semifinals of the league tournament on their home floor. Led by sophomores Damian Lillard and Kyle Bullinger, Weber State will be the favorite in that one-bid league.
Looking good for a 2010 NCAA bid
College of Charleston: The Southern Conference is wide open now that Davidson's Stephen Curry is gone. Actually, the College of Charleston beat Davidson twice last season. The Cougars went 27-9 and return three starters. Coach Bobby Cremins hasn't taken a team to the NCAA tournament since 1996 (Georgia Tech), and Charleston hasn't gone since 1999. Both droughts could end this season.
Nevada: The Wolf Pack have a new coach; David Carter was promoted after Mark Fox left to become coach at Georgia. Nevada was inconsistent last season, finishing three games behind Utah State in the WAC race. That could change this season because Nevada's two best players - Luke Babbitt and Armon Johnson, who also happen to be two of the league's best players - are a year older.
Oregon State: The CBI champions are ready to start thinking about NCAA appearances. The Beavers improved from 0-18 in the Pac-10 in 2007-08 to 7-11 last season, their first under coach Craig Robinson. Those seven wins included two over California, which is projected to win the Pac-10 this season. The Beavers return their four leading scorers and add a top-25 recruiting class. With coaching changes at Arizona, USC and Washington State and a lot of roster turnover at UCLA, the Beavers could make dramatic improvement in a weakened Pac-10.
It's possible
Northeastern: The Huskies' win total has increased each season under coach Bill Coen, who is entering his fourth season. Led by guards Matt Janning, a junior, and Chaisson Allen, a sophomore, they will be squarely in the mix for the Colonial Athletic Association title.
Richmond: The Spiders are a sleeper pick in the Atlantic 10, thanks to a top-notch backcourt of Kevin Anderson and David Gonzalvez. And with junior Dan Geriot healthy, Richmond should have more stability in the frontcourt.
UTEP: The Miners were the CBI runners-up and are another C-USA team looking to take advantage of the changes at Memphis. Transfers Derrick Caracter (Louisville) and Christian Polk (Arizona State) join a core that includes Memphis natives Arnett Moultrie and Randy Culpepper.
Looking good for a 2010 NCAA bid
Mount St. Mary's: The Mountaineers were a game away from reaching their second consecutive NCAA tournament before losing to Robert Morris in the Northeast Conference tournament final. This season, Mount St. Mary's should be the league's preseason favorite because of the return of the team's top four scorers. Jeremy Goode, a 5-9 guard, might be the best players in the league.
Oakland: The Golden Grizzlies won 23 games and finished third in the Summit League last season; they were eliminated in the CIT and league tourney on last-second shots. Forward Derick Nelson returns after taking a medical redshirt last season; he averaged 17.3 points in his last full season. Oakland also adds guard Larry Wright, a former starter at St. John's. Those two and standout point guard Johnathon Jones make Oakland the Summit favorite.
Old Dominion: The departures of coach Anthony Grant and guard Eric Maynor from VCU will help open the door for the rest of the Colonial Athletic Association, and ODU should be ready to barge in. ODU won the CIT and the top six scorers return to the team, including All-CAA first-teamer Gerald Lee (15.7 ppg, 5.7 rpg) and CIT MVP Frank Hassell (three double-doubles in four tourney games).
Looking good for an NCAA bid:
Georgia Tech: The Yellow Jackets were good enough to beat ranked Clemson and Wake Forest teams, but they also were bad enough to lose 15 ACC games (including the league tourney) last season. Other than Kentucky, Tech might have the biggest ceiling for improvement in the country. Gani Lawal (15.1 ppg, 9.5 rpg) decided to stay in school rather than enter the NBA draft. The Yellow Jackets also bring in the No. 4 signing class, led by center Derrick Favors. Favors and Lawal could be gone after this season, especially if Tech gets into the NCAAs. On the other hand, coach Paul Hewitt almost certainly would be gone if Tech misses the postseason again.
Ole Miss: The SEC West is wide open, giving Ole Miss a chance to win the division and reach the NCAA tournament. The Rebels went 16-15 last season and 7-9 in the SEC, but they were hammered by injuries. Losing point guard Chris Warren was the biggest hit. Warren will be back this season, but the Rebels are guard-heavy and lack frontcourt players. True freshman Reginald Bucker could be the only big man of note. But, hey, teams with good guards usually make some noise in March.
Vanderbilt: Vanderbilt returns every key player form a team that went 19-12 overall and 8-8 in the SEC last season. Junior A.J. Ogilvy and sophomores Jeffery Taylor and Brad Tinsley should improve, and the Commodores also add highly touted guard John Jenkins.
It's possible
Cincinnati: Mick Cronin oversaw a rebuilding project in his first three seasons, and the Bearcats may be ready now. Yancy Gates, Cashmere Wright and freshman Lance Stephenson should take some of the pressure off overworked senior guard Deonta Vaughn.

Hi guys!
I'm from Croatia and I recently purchased Citroen C4 Coupe 1.4i 16V.
The model I purchased came with the "RDS stereo radio/CD player" and 4+2 loudspeakers installed.
Now, I have one question for you.
I want to install my active subwoofer but I presume that the build-in stereo has no subwoofer pre-out (or any pre-out at all). I cannot connect it parallel with rear speakers as well because the signal is too strong. The other option is replacing the unit, but that is out of the question also because I'm controlling some of the car options as well as time/date with the unit.
Do you have any idea how to connect the subwoofer to that system?
Thank you in advance for your answer!

perfect for summer. the colour is just WOW. the consistency is great, doesn't smear.. love it. urban decay 24/7 eye liners are THE BEST.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Dry, Fair, Cool
Hair: Red, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Blue
This is a stunning bright turquoise eyeliner with silver glitter. It is smooth as butter and has amazing staying power. It can be hard to sharpen because it's so soft and it doesn't stay very pointy, as other reviews stated as well. It's a great, albeit expensive, eyeliner that would look striking on brown eyes especially, however it looks terrible on my blue eyes. I would buy this again because it's a great product but I think I'll try it in a more flattering colour (I'm eyeing the bright purple!)
EDIT: had to take a lipstick off - I tried one of the liners on my waterline and it was so uncomfortable and irritated my eyes like crazy. It was as though someone sucked the moisture from my eyes. This liner is great for the lid but I will never put it on my waterline again! Ouch... I guess I should have thought glitter=pain but I thought the main selling feature was the fact that they stay on so well, and the only time I have issues with eyeliner staying on is when it's on my waterline!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Neutral

I have had this since it came out - but lately I have been wearing it much more. For me it's perfect for the summer and warmer months. I have hazel eyes and I love how this liner brings out the green in my eyes and makes them pop. I've used this with bright colours as well as with greys and neutrals for a surprising pop of colour. Even though I love it, I find the color a little too bright and not really wearable.
The application is amazing it glides on creamy and thick. It's easy to work with if you want to smudge it out and it stays on really well even if you don't. I don't have any problems with smudging, running, or anything not even in water. I don't know if it's waterproof but it stays put wonderfully for me.
One downside is it's a little soft so if it gets too sharp it can easily break off and sharpening can be an ordeal. If you live somewhere very warm you may want to store it in a cool place like the refrigerator.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Very Oily, Olive, Warm

I LOVE this eyeliner! I actually bought a full size of this instead of buying a mini in a kit. I have NC30-35 asian skin (brown eyes) and this just looks perfect on me. It pops against my skin and makes my eyes look SO brown. I always get compliments when I wear this bright aqua shade. For some reason, this lasts the longest on me out of all the 24/7 liners I have. Zero smudges on me immediately, but Electric will last the whole day without smudging. I don't have sensitive eyes, but this works on my waterline too. There is glitter in it, but it doesn't irritate my eyes or my contacts. I would buy this again in a flash.

This is a gorgeous blue w/ silver NO CHUNKS/FALLOUT, finely milled glitter....does not irrate my eye & makes my Brown eyes Pop!!! I have no problems w/smudging OR sharpening...this does not migrate 1nce I put it on....For Reference I only use it under my eyes I tightline my eyes w/black & then apply....Instant Eyegasam...Lol!!!

UD Electric eye pencil
Wow! This is such a gorgeous, bright, medium turquoise with silvery glittery sparkles (this is not a frost shade, but rather a glittery one -- which can sometimes look a bit off with big chunky glitter pieces afloat everywhere on your lashline if you use to heavy a hand, imho). I use this shade to double line my upper lash line (I use black tight against the lash line, then use Electric VERY light-handedly right above the black line -- stunning! and really makes my brown eyes look so bright!).
I had purchased this shade in hopes of finding a dupe for my long lost love MAC Out To Sea eye pencil (a creamy matte light turquoise), but Electric just doesn't fit that bill, though it is a keeper for me, nonetheless. I much prefer Out To Sea's paler, NON shimmery turquoise color, as it really lent an ethereal quality to my dark eyes, even when rocking a dramatic smokey eye. Out To Sea was soft-focus magic. :) I'm still on a quest to find a dupe, but in the meantime, UD Electric is the nearest match so far.
I find the UD eye pencils have great staying power, so no complaints there. And they do not irritate even my very sensitive eyes. As for CONS, aside from the glittery chunks sometimes leading to a less than perfectly smooth line application, I wish this pencil were NOT so soft! It seems my pencil sharpener just loves to eat UD pencils. :/ I can go through a UD pencil several times faster than I go through any of my MAC ones. For this reason alone, I think UD should lower their eye pencil price One can hope, can't they? :)

This is a beautiful color. I'm NC 45 and this pop of color looks sophisticated and luxe.
I want to buy another of these in a diff color.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Dry, Fair, Warm
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Blue
This thing is worth the price! It's GORGEOUS! It is such an attention-grabber, but not drag-queeny. Easily applied, well pigmented, and lasts. The metallicness is subtle, but adds a splash of glamour. Use with neutral colours to make your eyes pop. A beautifully coloured, fabulous liner. I reccommend it even to those who shy away from bright colours as just a little on the bottom lashline goes a long way and it doesn't look too crazy.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
Overall, the Urban Decay Liners are amazing. I got this as a sample in August and it's still lasted. It's a beautiful electric blue color, which I love cause I'm very into blue liners. My cons are that the glitter does annoy me and the price. Other than that, it's a fantastic liner :)
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Hazel
love this pencil, in fact the whole range - they glide on so easily i can do them one handed on the bus! they smudge, but only if you are messing about with your eyes! Not perfect for precision as they tend to be a bit too creamy for that, but for ease of application and intensity of colour i dont think they can be beaten

Hiking in Singapore: Sungei Buloh
While most people think we Singaporeans live in an urban jungle. They might be right. We live in an urban city and next to our city is still pretty much a jungle! Pockets of original greenery still occupy our little island. And in some pockets, you can still see swamps, monitor lizards, snakes, etc. Sungei Buloh is a beautiful wetland reserve in...more
Hiking in Singapore : MacRitchie...
If you're feeling fit and fine, go on a hike and be Tarzen for a day in Singapore. Instead of swinging on the vines, you get to walk from tree to tree. Strange though it may seem in urban Singapore, hiking is an available sports option over here! I'm not joking, we have gorgeous rainforests within city limits and lots of easy-to-do trails that are...more
Good camping sites in Singapore
In my opinion, the good camping sites in Singapore are along the various beaches where you can experience the sea breeze and beautiful surroundings. Also, there are lots of facilities including toilets, washing area, food stores etc which makes it very convenient. I think the best camping sites in Singapore are Changi Beach Park, East Coast Park...more

Cycling at East Coast Park
If you enjoy ecycling, you should visit the famous East Coast Park in Singapore where you can easily rent a bicycle for about $6-$8 per hour and cycle along the beautiful long stretch of beach in this area.

The most popular physical activities among residents in Singapore are jogging and brisk walking. Well, there are nice parks around if you want to have a good jog.

Golfing at the Many Driving Ranges
As golf is really "in", many are swinging at driving ranges these days. There are many ranges in Singapore and some of the public range are at Seletar Base, Marina, East Coast, etc. Prices from $2 for 40 balls onwards. Your clubs, perhaps your woods and irons.more
Hiking or Bicycling in Bukit Timah...
It's a nature reserve where you can hike or bicycle (on separated trails) in the reserve. There is 1 cycling track (9 kms) and there are 3 options of hiking tracks (1.9 kms the longest), one of them is the nature trail. I personally suggest the nature trail. Enjoy the tropical forest with its sounds and keep yourself on trail. They do not rent...more

I love the glass that it's in, it makes me wonder how it balances XD
The bottom of the glass is leveled off so it can rest on a flat surface. If you look closely, you can see that the bases aren't perfect spheres.
it is balanced like all other glassware, by sitting on top of the flat surface.
Looks so good!
They look lovely! Those glasses are amazing, by the way. O.o
That's make me hangry now!!
These look awesome! The glasses are really cool as well!
A sprig of mint, some sprinkles as well.... yup, you got me drooling for breakfast again

Some robes are so thick that they are heavy on your shoulders .... these soft cuddly lightweight beauties are comfy ... great to put on as you step out of the shower ... or when you give yourself a personal gift ... a day of reading and drinking hot chocolate when it is snowing ...you cannot even imagine how you will want to stay cuddled up all day ... they are difficult to get out of ..easy to put on ... enjoy !!! I bought one for my sister ... one for a friend ... and of course ... one for me ... and Christmas is coming ... if you are shipping these ... you will love that they don't weigh much ... so great for sending Santa to loved ones you won't see for the holidays ... I wash only on gentle cycle ... dry with a dryer sheet to make it softer, fluffier, and to smell wonderful ... on gentle heat .. for a short time ... take out of dryer and then hang it up quickly so it is like brand new ... and ready for giving more hugs !!

Using a little-known federal statute (Title 18, Section 1001 of the U.S. Code), federal prosecutors are threatening to send Martha Stewart to jail for lying to government officials and for publicly declaring her innocence of insider trading even though the government refuses to charge her with the actual crime of insider trading. That's outrageous.
Today, the federal government regulates virtually every facet of our lives, and consequently there is hardly a crime conceivable that cannot be swept up in a federal indictment. This includes securities regulations that are so broad and vague that a determined federal prosecutor can literally convict you of making "misleading public statements." This is precisely what federal prosecutors are attempting to do to Stewart. So much for the First Amendment.
Everyone has the right to remain silent when questioned by the police. If police fail to read you your Miranda rights, the courts must exclude from evidence against you statements you made to the police, even a confession.
The rationale for such strict enforcement of the Supreme Court's Miranda
decision rests on the premise that the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination is so fundamental to our freedoms that it must be protected against erosion and government encroachment, even at the expense of occasionally allowing obviously guilty defendants to go free on a technicality.
The problem is that this right can only be exercised once you are in the clutches of the government. Before that, if one stands on his constitutional right to silence and refuses to "cooperate" with authorities by not answering a single question or responding to a single allegation in the press, one's reputation can be ruined, his or her business can be destroyed and their lives can be made miserable by unrelenting, harassing government officials who leak harmful stories to the press and business associates.
The natural inclination is to "cooperate" with authorities and answer allegations levied in the press. Gotcha! The minute you open your mouth or allow your attorney to speak on your behalf, not only does the protection of silence go right out the window, you expose yourself to an assault by federal prosecutors who are given virtually limitless powers to intimidate you under Section 1001.

I've been trying to figure out why your Catwoman is so damn cute, I think it may be the way that shock of hair shows ahead of her cowl.
Beautfifully done. I generally don't care for the Adam Hughes version of Catwoman, I prefer the older versions, but yours are especially enjoyable. You do very intriguing work.

I hope Jim Piculas was a bad substitute teacher, but the excuse his supervisor offered for firing him was a doozy.
Substitute teacher Jim Piculas does a 30-second magic trick where a toothpick disappears then reappears.
But after performing it in front of a classroom at Rushe Middle School in Land 'O Lakes, Piculas said his job did a disappearing act of its own.
"I get a call the middle of the day from head of supervisor of substitute teachers. He says, 'Jim, we have a huge issue, you can't take any more assignments you need to come in right away,'" he said.
When Piculas went in, he learned his little magic trick cast a spell and went much farther than he'd hoped.
"I said, 'Well Pat, can you explain this to me?' 'You've been accused of wizardry,' [he said]. Wizardry?" he asked.

GoNorth 2011 review
There was something for everyone at GONORTH, the Inverness conference and artist showcase now in its 11th year.
For unsigned musicians, the daytime seminars and workshop sessions offered a chance to learn a thing or two about how the modern industry functions – positive and negative – and pass on demo CDs (unfortunately they haven't yet been replaced by USB sticks in the physical world) to people who might be able to further their careers.
For music fans, the evening schedule presented dozens of live acts for free across nine locations. While my initial thought was that having so many bills running at exactly the same time seemed a bit ill-considered, the ultra-compact layout of Inverness town centre made venue-hopping an absolute doddle, with no two points more than five minutes from one another on foot.
Since the Thursday showcase at Flames featuring Kid Canaveral, PAWS, LightGuides and Indian Red Lopez was curated by me, Peenko and Song, By Toad, there's no way I could expect you to trust the impartiality of anything I write about it, so I'll just say that it was probably the most absorbing four-band bill of Scottish talent I've ever witnessed and leave it at that. It's such a buzz to see bands who don't need reminding they're in the entertainment business.
There wasn't really any inclination to leave Flames but I did venture across the road to the Ramada Encore hotel to catch the last 10 minutes of Panda Su and meet Luke Joyce aka I Build Collapsible Mountains for the first time, both highly enjoyable experiences.
The seminars I attended were a mixed bag. A lot of the topics covered the same ground that Wide Days did in April so, personally, I didn't get as much out of them as I would have hoped. A recurring theme was the difficult balancing act between the commercial and creative worlds. During the Modern Management panel, for example, Idlewild manager Bruce Craigie – a no-bullshit, baseball cap-wearing Scot who gave the impression that he'd walked the walk – revealed that he'd actually signed Scouting For Girls (which he attempted to justify with "my mum likes them"). I suspect I wasn't the only member of the audience who died inside just a little at that moment.
The only word for the Worldwide Radio Summit panel was surreal. Alongside DJ Jim Gellatly and Jeff Zycinski, head of radio at BBC Scotland, was a guy called Jesse Rae who was clad head to toe in full Braveheart regalia for reasons nobody thought to ask. Rae dented the charts a couple of times in the 1980s and now works as a broadcaster on Brick FM in the Borders, but it's hard to take someone seriously when they're dressed for a battle that finished eight centuries ago. The undoubted highlight of the talk was when Rae and Gellatly disagreed about something, prompting Zycinski to put his hand on Gellatly's shoulder and say, "Jim, he's got a sword."
The keynote interview with Feargal Sharkey on the Thursday was a huge letdown. While you can't argue with the man's pedigree with The Undertones, the anecdotes he told about his anti-everything punk roots couldn't have been further removed from the latter half of the conversation about his current role as head of UK Music and rock 'n' roll tales of government lobbying and the minutiae of England's licensing laws.
The one on the Friday with FatCat co-founder Alex Knight was infinitely more engaging and candid, especially with regards to the Brighton-based record label's signing of Scottish trio Frightened Rabbit, We Were Promised Jetpacks and The Twilight Sad, as well as their challenging relationship with eccentric Icelandic geniuses Sigur Ros before they moved on to EMI.
Knight described Frightened Rabbit's unexpected defection to major label Atlantic as "very frustrating on a personal level". When asked if FatCat had the resources to take the band's career to the next level, Knight replied: "We were as well placed as the label they signed to."
Olaf Furniss then hosted a walking tour of Inverness, taking in the picturesque banks of the River Ness and some historically significant landmarks before a piper led everyone over an alarmingly swaying footbridge to Eden Court theatre. Mercifully, the three screenings were brief since Robert 'Boab' Canavan from Campfires In Winter and I had our sights trained on Jamaican restaurant Kool Runnings. Curried goat: yum!
The Friday evening showcase was full of acts I was less familiar with but that, in turn, lent itself to a series of pleasant surprises, beginning with Lucy Rose, who is as close to an English version of Feist as you'll find.
However, her 30-minute set at Mad Hatters was just as memorable for the fragile, tender beauty of her music as it was for the loopy behaviour of a girl in the front row. The fan's actions included clapping out of time on her own during slow songs, initiating awkward conversations with the London-based singer and stomping off to the bar mid-song before coming back with two unrequested drinks and plonking them down on the stage.
You could have forgiven Rose for heading straight to the emergency exit at the end of her performance, but to her credit she hung around for the rest of the night and was bopping along to the charming twee-folk sounds of Edinburgh group Chasing Owls at Hootananny downstairs.
Back upstairs, the musical shenanigans were rounded off by The Second Hand Marching Band, who were chaotic and bonkers, but in a merry, non-obsessive, no-need-for-a-restraining-order way.
So, to sum up my GoNorth 2011 experience…
Lesson learned: The general consensus was that radio, especially Radio 1, is still imperative to the success of breaking a new act, so arguably there were fewer figures more influential at GoNorth than Vic Galloway, Ally McCrae, Jim Gellatly and Jeff Zycinski, who were all in attendance either as panelists or delegates.
To be continued: I was told about one or two genuinely exciting developments within the Scottish music scene which will be unveiled and debated about when the time is right. Patience, peeps.
Room for improvement: GoNorth have an extensive Fringe programme which runs the day before the event's official start date. Given that this follows the same pattern of seminars/workshops/showcase gigs, the organisers really ought to just advertise GoNorth as a three-day event, thereby encouraging more people to turn up 24 hours earlier.
In conclusion: GoNorth is a thoroughly worthwhile event for anyone with even a passing interest in the music scene in Scotland and/or the industry as a whole. It has so many things in its favour – the fact that it's not in the Central Belt helps it avoid being insular or parochial in its outlook; it shines an all-too-rare spotlight on the creative talent that exists in the Highlands; it provides an invaluable platform for making helpful contacts; and all the fun is completely free.

Bruce Craigie Says:
Just seen this review & would like to state for the record that it wasn't me that claimed to have signed Scouting for Girls…. As I wasn't (& don't wear) baseball caps & I have a 'southern' accent, I'm sure that it was a case of mistaken identity. I'm not too sure if I've 'walked the walk' either!
The conference & showcase is great!

Crikey, sorry Bruce – I'm not sure who I've mistaken you for, but whoever it was clearly got off lightly!

CONCORD, New Hampshire — A man serving a life sentence for the rape and slaying of a University of New Hampshire student has been conditionally denied parole for a lesser charge associated with that crime.
Seth Mazzaglia (muh-ZAYL'-ee-uh) asked the state parole board Tuesday for parole on a witness tampering charge that's tied to the 2012 death of 19-year-old Elizabeth "Lizzi" Marriott of Westborough, Massachusetts.
WMUR-TV reports (http://bit.ly/1T4RsUr) the board said Mazzaglia needs to be re-classified to a lower security level and be of good behavior for six months before that parole would be granted.
The parole order would have no effect on Mazzaglia's life sentence.
Marriott's father, Bob Marriott, said Mazzaglia needs to stay where he is.
Mazzaglia denied raping and killing Marriott, but said he helped cover up her murder.

Guide to Finding a Clean Beach
How to Find Out if a Beach is Tested for Pollution—and What Authorities Do If They Find It
Wondering how clean the water is at your favorite beach? Finding an answer can be tricky, because there is no national protocol for communicating with the public about the risks from unsafe swimming water. Beach testing and closing/health advisory practices vary beach by beach and state by state. Some localities regularly test the water quality at their beaches, but others do not. Even when states and local authorities do perform tests, they don't always notify the public or close beaches when bacteria levels in the water exceed health standards.
Finding Help Online
Here's how to investigate the safety of your favorite beach before heading out for a swim:
Start by checking Testing the Waters 2014. This NRDC report will give you the details on beach water monitoring results for coastal and Great Lakes beaches in 2013.
Photo: Jake Rome
The Environmental Protection Agency's Beaches website is full of useful information, as is its interactive database of water quality testing, beach closures, and advisories. The agency's beach Do's and Don'ts also offers tips about how you can help to improve water quality at the beach.
Finding Help at the Local or State Health Department
In most cases, staff members at your town or county health department will be able to answer your questions about local beach water monitoring. You also can contact your state's health department or environmental protection agency. The information for EPA regional beach contacts and state, tribe, and territory beach contacts can be found here.
When you contact local or state health officials, ask:
- What are the sources of pollution affecting the waters where I swim, and what is being done to make sure they're clean?
- Do you perform water quality monitoring for swimmer safety at these beaches? If so, how often?
- Do you always close beaches or notify the public when testing shows that bacteria levels are worse than the health-protective Beach Action Value identified by the EPA?
- What is the current status of these waters (are they closed or open?), and what warning signs should I look for that might indicate there are water pollution problems?
Avoiding Polluted Beaches
In some cases, beach water quality test results may be announced on local radio and TV, printed in the newspaper, or posted online. Most states have information about beach closings and swimming advisories available on a website. Below is a list of such states; click on one to visit its site. Also be on the lookout for posted signs at the beach before you swim.
- New Hampshire
- New Jersey
- New York Coastal Beaches
- New York State (Lake Ontario and Lake Erie beaches)
- North Carolina
- Ohio
Whenever possible, swim at beaches that your research shows have the cleanest water, are carefully monitored, and have strict closure and advisory procedures. If your beach is not monitored regularly, there are some things you can do to avoid swimming in polluted water:
- If possible, choose beaches that are on open waters and away from urban areas. They frequently have cleaner water than beaches in developed areas or in enclosed bays and harbors with little water circulation.
- Look for pipes along the beach that drain stormwater runoff from the streets, and don't swim near them. Avoid swimming in beach water that is cloudy or smells bad.
- Keep your head out of the water.
- Avoid swimming for at least 24 hours after it rains and 72 hours after heavy rains.
- Contact local health officials if you suspect beach water contamination so that others can be protected from exposure.

To Thy Heart (2013) Trailer
Trailer for the animated short To Thy Heart.
He was sweet and wonderful. He had raven black hair and stood near a swing on the square. When he smiled, all eyes turned to him. Life with him was thrilling. When he let his paranoia run wild, she was prepared to do whatever he demanded. She wanted to be with him – the whole night. Appreciatively, he sank into her lap. But after waking she is not prepared to forgive his unfaithfulness. The story of a disappointed relationship that reverberates amongst the vast apartment blocks of the suburbs.

Number of uninsured children falls in La.
Published: Wednesday, February 22, 2012 at 6:27 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 22, 2012 at 6:27 a.m.
BATON ROUGE — A new report conducted by LSU finds the number of uninsured children in Louisiana continued to decline while the number of adults without insurance rose over the past two years.
The 2011 Louisiana Health Insurance Survey found 16,190 fewer uninsured children than in 2009 — bringing the percentage of uninsured children down to 3.5 percent statewide.
Meanwhile, the number of uninsured adults age 19 to 64 has increased significantly in the past two years — from 540,490 to 633,943, based on survey results. The percentage of uninsured adults jumped from 20.1 percent in 2009 to 22.7 percent in 2011.
The survey is the fifth in a series dating back to 2003 done by the LSU group for the state Department of Health and Hospitals.

I was able to get an advance copy of this game since I purchased Guitar Hero 5. It is a BLAST! I love every minute and every song. The only disappointment is that there is no Michael Anthony or Sammy Hagar. If Van Halen management was smart they would come to terms with them on the game, this could lead to big time downloadable content!!! Anyway, I highly recommend this game. Even though I received mine for free I would have bought it anyway even if there was no promotion!!! ROCK ON!!!!!

A friend decided to start baking fandom cookies. She really enjoys baking…and fandoms…so why not combine the two! These cookies came from Fantastic Bakes and Where To Find Them on Facebook. If you contact her via her Facebook page, you can get some gorgeous cookies like these delivered to you. She doesn't just do Loki cookies, she can do any fandom or anything else you can imagine, so get in touch and see how she can help you!
In case you were wondering how in the world do cookies arrive intact, this is how they were packaged. EACH one was sealed in it's own plastic wrap and then EACH one was wrapped in bubble wrap. None of them were chipped or broken. They all arrived in wonderful condition. Some of them had the slightest bit of smear between dark and light colors, but keep in mind these were shipped to Houston, TX, which is always very HUMID and we've had a lot of rain. They survived a lot of dampness and looked just fine!

Instead of addressing the merits of this dangerously misguided precedent, critics of last week's decision, like censors throughout history, worried that freedom of speech would have bad consequences. "It gives the special interest lobbyists new leverage to spend millions on advertising to persuade elected officials to vote their way -- or to punish those who don't," Obama warned. "Any public servant who has the courage to stand up to the special interests and stand up for the American people can find himself or herself under assault come election time."
It was a bit rich for Obama to bemoan the influence of "special interests" the same week Massachusetts voters expressed their anger over bailouts he enthusiastically supported, the week after he cut a deal that exempted union members from a tax everyone else would have to pay, around the same time he was bragging about a spending binge that has stimulated lobbying more than the economy and in the midst of his attempt to salvage health care legislation backed by big corporations.
In any case, democracy is a clash of interests, which we call "special" when we don't like the policies they support, and the election-time "assault" of Obama's nightmares is nothing more than public criticism of politicians.
Obama and other supporters of restrictions on political speech believe voters can't handle clashing versions of the truth, that they need to be shielded, in the name of democracy, from messages that would otherwise mesmerize them into doing the bidding of "powerful interests." The Framers thought otherwise, and that's why we have the First Amendment.
