Woodcreek's Pinkerton stepping down due to health
By: Kurt Johnson, The Press Tribune
Paul Hayes will be back on the bench for the T-wolves
Having just completed knee replacment surgery on one side, and with another to come on the other, Woodcreek High basketball coach Burnel Pinkerton resigned Monday. "We knew back on November 30 that things were probably worse than we first thought," Pinkerton said. "The pain was getting worse and worse and after the season I had some time to think. I didn't think it was fair to the kids, to the program or to me when I couldn't really coach the way I should." With the team coming off a magical season in which the Timberwolves reached the Northern California final, the coach decided that it was time to take care of his health. "With all of the work he has put in, going out with a league and section title and on top is a great way for him to go out," said Granite Bay coach Jason Sitterud. "People never know all he did for the kids. That is the greatest thing about him. The kids are drawn to him and he gave his time and interest always to the kids both on and off the court." His love of coaching and of the players in his charge has not waned, but the call of his body become too loud to ignore. "This is not a situation with burnout or anything like that," Pinkerton said. "It was 31 years ago that I had my first surgery (the next one with be his 10th procedure) and I am just looking forward to getting my body healthy." The coach is very good friends with Oakmont coach Rick Campbell, who is hoping to be able to tap Pinkerton as a resource down the road. "It's often difficult to keep friends in this business," Campbell said. "You are friendly with other coaches, but he and I kept all the competition stuff on the side and were really close friends. I am happy for him and he will be able to do more hunting and fishing, but he will be around and hopefully be a resource for me." Pinkerton is not ready to say he is hanging up his whistle for good, but for now he felt it was the way to go. "When you can't get out there and demonstrate post moves and jump stops, you can't be as hands-on as you need to be," Pinkerton said. "I asked the doctor how bad the knees were and on a scale of one to 10, he told me it was a nasty 8 1/2." The coach told his players Monday, and he said they pretty much knew it was coming and understood the situation. It was his love for those players who drove Pinkerton to work so hard as a coach. "He was one of the better coaches in the area," Campbell said. "He did things for the right reason. The time with the kids is the reason we do this. It's all of the other side stuff that makes this job a grind." He will be replaced on the bench by Paul Hayes, the former Woodcreek coach who last led the Timberwolves deep into the postseason. Hayes has been running the school's junior varsity program since making his return to the sidelines two years ago. Some changes in his life had necessitated that he step down, but now he will resume the reins of the varsity squad. "Paul is the greatest guy in the world," Pinkerton said. "He has been there before and it will be an easy transition. He has a great nucleus of kids coming back and he will be very familar with all of them, having coached them at the JV level." As the coach steps away, at least for now, it is not wins and losses that he remembers, but the kids he coached. "The winning is not why I do this," Pinkerton said. "We are building young men. My high school coach was a great influence in my life and taught me a lot about character and I wanted to do the same thing."

NOAA officials are still working out the details of the sequestration-triggered budget cuts
The 25 employees of the National Weather Service in San Diego each face four furlough days as part of a larger plan by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to reduce its budget because of sequestration.
About 12,000 NOAA employees are expected to go on furlough between now and Sept. 1.
Roger Pierce, meteorologist-in-charge of the San Diego office, said details of the furloughs are still being worked out, but that the time off will be done in a way to minimize the impact on forecasting. He also said administrators will step in to help if forecasters are on furlough when a severe event — such as a wildfire — occurs.
"We've been dealing with (budget issues) since Oct. 1," Pierce said. "We've been doing only the emergency training that is required and making only the emergency repairs that are needed."
The San Diego office, in Rancho Bernardo, forecasts the weather for 10.1 million residents of San Diego, Orange, southwestern San Bernardino and western Riverside counties. Eleven forecasters, three interns and nine administrators and support workers are based there.

Drake and Chris Brown have been offered one million dollars each to continue their feud in a boxing ring. The pair and their entourages were involved in a fight at a New York club earlier this month. A billionaire named Alki David made the offer and is willing to donate another million dollars to a charity if the guys agree to it. He says it will be for three one-minute rounds, and no one will get hurt.
By now we've all seen clips of Channing Tatum stripping in his new movie "Magic Mike". Some new video surfaced over the weekend of Channing from his legit male-stripping days. There are scenes from two different dances. The first one looks like a finale where all the guys get together and dance to "YMCA" at the end of the night. Channing doesn't display much rhythm in that one. But he is wearing a grass skirt, which makes sense when you see the second clip, in which Channing and another guy are natives about to sacrifice a woman until a dude playing Tarzan shows up and chases them off. I doubt women are going to mind how well Channing dances. He looks fantastic and that's what counts.
Jennifer Lopez might be a germ-a-phobe. She has her own potty cover to ensure a germ-free bathroom experience. Her ex-boyfriend Ben Affleck had it made back in 2003.

Two members of One Direction allegedly shared a nice kiss onstage during a concert in Houston on Sunday night. Or at least, that's what some of their fans would apparently like to believe. Here's what happened: Harry Styles, "The Hot One", walks over to Niall Horan, "The Blond One", after the group's performance of "What Makes You Beautiful". He grabs his shoulder, leans in, and "kisses" him. Or, he's just leaning in to tell him something, if that seems more likely. Neither of these guys has responded to this nonsense, but after the show, Niall Tweeted, "Bedtime! Great show in Houston! Tired now! Sleepies!"

According to a report by the Virginian Pilot newspaper, The Old Dominion Monarchs will open the 2013 football schedule at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium against Conference USA opponent ECU.
The newspaper cited an unidentified source who also said The Citadel agreed to cancel its contract to play at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium next season in return for playing at Old Dominion. The source went on to say ECU athletic director Terry Holland then agreed to schedule ODU in place of The Citadel.
Old Dominion moves up to FBS (old Division I) in 2014, when it begins playing a full Conference USA schedule.

The Complete Guide to Westeros is a series of short videos that appear in the Game of Thrones Season 1 Blu-ray set. Actual cast members, in-character, narrate the major events of the 12,000 year long history of Westeros. The "Complete Guide" for each season has a combined running time of 60 minutes, thus each functionally constitutes a full-length "bonus episode" of sorts. The featurettes were written by series staff writer Bryan Cogman.[1] The illustrations in the Complete Guide are created by the TV series' storyboard artist, William Simpson.[2]
The goal is that viewers new to the TV series that are not familiar with author George R.R. Martin's books are given within the space of an hour a thorough crash-course on all of the vital things one needs to know about the backstory of the world of Westeros.
Similar to the theme of the books, each of the characters gives their own perspective on historical events. For example, Robert Baratheon is filled with self-righteous fury when he describes the Sack of King's Landing, while Viserys Targaryen stresses what a betrayal it was and how the Targaryen children were butchered. The House Stark characters are horrified by the bloodshed in the Sack of King's Landing, while Tywin Lannister considers it to have been a necessary evil.
The Complete Guide to Westeros is broken in two groups of featurettes: "Houses" featurettes are in full-color limited animation and explain the specific history of main Great Houses of the Seven Kingdoms; meanwhile, "History and Lore" explain the nature of institutions, cultural aspects, and historical events of the Seven Kingdoms, and are presented in charcoal-style drawings.
History and Lore
- "The Children of the Forest, the First Men, and the Andals": Bran Stark speaks of the original inhabitants of Westeros, their conflict with the First Men and the later invasion of the Andals.
- "The Age of Heroes": Bran Stark briefly narrates the stories of legendary figures of several of the seven independent kingdoms that existed prior to the War of Conquest
- "The Old Gods and the New": Bran Stark and Catelyn Tully explain the nature of the two largest religions in Westeros: the Old Gods of the Forest and the Faith of the Seven.
- "The History of the Night's Watch": Lord Commander Jeor Mormont, Maester Luwin, and Lord Tywin Lannister separately narrate the origins and purpose of the Night's Watch and describe its current status from their own perspective.
- "The Order of Maesters": Maester Luwin explains the role and function of the Order of Maesters in the Seven Kingdoms as well as studies aspiring Maesters undergo.
- "Valyria and the Dragons": Viserys Targaryen narrates the origins of the Valyrian Freehold, the role of dragons in Valyrian supremacy and the consequences of the Doom.
- "The Field of Fire": Viserys Targaryen and Robb Stark give separate accounts of the War of Conquest and the consequences of the Field of Fire.
- "Mad King Aerys": King Robert Baratheon, Maester Luwin and Lord Tywin Lannister speak their own accounts of the actions of King Aerys II Targaryen that led to Robert's Rebellion.
- "Robert's Rebellion": King Robert Baratheon and Viserys Targaryen give their own perspectives on the events of Robert's Rebellion up from its beginnings to the Battle of the Trident.
- "The Sack of King's Landing": Viserys Targaryen, King Robert Baratheon, Maester Luwin, and Lord Tywin Lannister describe the Sack of King's Landing and offer their own conflicting opinions on the event.
- "House Stark": Bran and Robb Stark narrate the ancient origins, history and particularities of House Stark.
- "House Lannister": Lord Tywin Lannister speaks of the origins, status, and power of House Lannister and his role in the Reyne Rebellion.
- "House Targaryen": Viserys Targaryen narrates the origins of the Targaryen dynasty, the conquest of the Seven Kingdoms and the exile of himself and Princess Daenerys Targaryen.
- "House Baratheon": King Robert I explains the origins of House Baratheon in the War of Conquest and its rise to royalty after Robert's Rebellion.
- "House Arryn": Catelyn Tully speaks of the origins of House Arryn and the conquest of the Vale during the Andal invasion and its role in Robert's Rebellion.

A 42-year-old Ocala man is scheduled to stand trial this week on charges that he molested a 4-year-old girl.
Jury selection began Monday in the case of Guies U. Johnson, who is charged with six counts of sexual battery on a child younger than 12, two counts of lewd or lascivious molestation on a child younger than 12, seven counts of promoting sexual performance by a child and 11 counts of child pornography possession.
Johnson was arrested on Aug. 29 after the father of the victim contacted authorities, a sheriff's report said.
The father's name is being withheld to avoid identifying the victim.
In an interview with authorities, Johnson denied all of the allegations and said he had a recording of the victim saying that another man had molested her.
The trial is scheduled to begin Thursday.

TUSKEGEE, Ala. (AP) -- Tuskegee city officials say Lt. Col. Herbert Eugene Carter, one of the original Tuskegee Airmen, has died.
Tuskegee Mayor Johnny Ford said Carter died Thursday afternoon at East Alabama Medical Center.
Carter flew 77 missions and crashed landed only once. The Tuskegee Airmen were the first black aviators in the U.S. military. They were trained in Alabama at the Tuskegee Institute, now Tuskegee University, as a segregated unit during World War II.
Ford said he's ordered all U.S. flags in Tuskegee to be flown at half-mast.

- Abstract
- This paper concerns with the number of limit cycles for a cubic Hamiltonian system under cubic perturbation. The fact that there exist 9-11 limit cycles is proved. The different distributions of limit cycles are given by using methods of bifurcation theory and qualitative analysis, among which two distributions of eleven limit cycles are new.

Wildlife officials say continued warm temperatures in Colorado's mountains mean some bears are still active.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife biologist Sean Shepherd tells The Summit Daily News that bears in the area normally begin hibernating in early October, but he is still getting reports of sightings.
He says bears are typically well settled into their dens by November and do not emerge until late April. But without dropping temperatures and snow, they are without a cue to begin their hibernation.

new Van Bommel HQ with historic black-and-white photographs
04 Dec. 2012
Van Bommel Make-overSituated in the 1950's neighbourhood of Moergestel, a village with a population of 6000, with 1700 square meters office space, 1750 square meters manufacturing space and 3600 square meters storage – this is the new Van Bommel Headquarter in figures.
Van Bommel opened completely rebuilt Headquarter
The shoe factory and headquarters of the 9th generation company was completely rebuilt and now appears in a new façade in a 1950's style, with Dutch charm as far as the eye can see. The new design, for which the three Bommel brothers are responsible, combines modern and traditional elements. For instance industrial elements such as floor coverings have been preserved and integrated into the new design. Highlights are the 12 meter long wooden installation with historic black-and-white photographs, a collection of historic books regarding shoes, instruction books, reference books, photographs and documents as well as a 30 meters long family tree painted by Creature Designer Kevin Bannister. Besides manufacturing and storage, the new headquarter is also home to design, office, and representation areas as well as a new company museum and a company cinema. In addition there is a visitor's tour at the moment. In 2013 the factory, where 35% of the shoes are produced, will be open to the public.

For all of the seemingly complicated and varied formations, the strict attention to detail and the emphasis on tempo, what the Mountaineers really do is throw stuff against the wall and see what sticks.
"Everything we do is kind of trial and error,'' Dana Holgorsen admits. "If it looks good, we keep doing it. If it doesn't, we do something else.''
Last weekend, what West Virginia threw against that wall was lining up Tavon Austin in the backfield and handing him the football. To say that it stuck would be an understatement. He rushed for a school-record 344 yards, a performance that nearly allowed the Mountaineers to upset Oklahoma.
To think that Holgorsen and his staff won't try it again on Friday when West Virginia (5-5, 2-5 Big 12) tries once again to snap a five-game losing streak and become bowl eligible in a game at Iowa State (6-5, 3-5) is ludicrous.
But to assume it will work as well - or at all, for that matter - is probably wishful thinking. West Virginia will throw it against the wall again, but this time it might not stick.
"It's just the way [Oklahoma] played,'' offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson said of Austin's wildly successful night. "I don't know that you'll see that again from anyone else.''
If nothing else, Austin's performance against Oklahoma will force opponents, beginning with Iowa State this week, to game plan for it. And that takes time away from preparing for other things. Coaches refer to it as chasing ghosts, which means being forced to prepare for a bunch of things that teams might do, rather than what they normally do.
"It's a pain in the rear end, especially with a six-day work week,'' Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads said. "It's hard enough to prepare for the offenses you face in this league [in a full week]. And then they start doing things different and you've got the unknown.
"You don't want to chase ghosts, but to a certain extent you have to, especially when a player is as talented as he is. You don't do that against the University of Oklahoma and their personnel. You just don't do that. He's a very, very special player and now you've got to spend the time to make sure you're ready for it, you're aligned for it and give your kids at least a chance to try and tackle him.''
If the Austin-in-the-backfield element was the primary thing that an opposing defense had to worry about and prepare for, it would be manageable. But it's not.
With Austin forcing Oklahoma's safeties to pay more attention to the run, Geno Smith and Stedman Bailey also had another huge game. Bailey caught 13 of Smith's passes for 205 yards and four touchdowns and on several occasions managed to do something that had become increasingly rare of late - get behind a defense that had to play the run.
Iowa State won't play the same defensive alignment as Oklahoma, of course. In fact, the Cyclones are adamant about stopping the run against every team they face, whereas Oklahoma pretty much concedes it in order to prevent big plays in the passing game. That means Austin won't be taking handoffs and immediately finding open space against a five-man box, which is what led to his huge rushing day.
Austin can, however, have some success running the ball if West Virginia's offense can make some plays elsewhere. He touched the ball on about 30 percent of the offensive plays last week, which is considerable. But that also means that on 70 percent, he did not. The Mountaineers have to make things happen on those plays.
"He got the ball 25 times [21 rushes and four receptions] out of about 90 plays [actually 82],'' Dawson said. "That's a good amount and probably as much as he should be getting it. But those other guys have to make plays, too.''

Our own U of M remains among the worst
There are 34 NCAA-sanctioned college football bowls — a total of 70 schools, including Minnesota, who earlier this month accepted their second consecutive Texas Bowl invitation. All but two of the 34 bowls are corporately named, including five restaurants, two credit cards, two auto parts stores, two by the same U.S-based television brand, one hotel, one cruise line, one junk-food company, one insurance company, one mortgage company, one on-line tax-preparation software company and one athletic apparel company. Only a pear tree-bound partridge is missing. Meanwhile, what sports fanatics and their cosigning media lackeys don't endlessly talk about is the poor academic records of most of the teams examined by The Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport (TIDES) in the University of Central
Florida's annual academic progress report on the bowl-bound teams.
"The substantial gap between White and African-American football student-athletes remained large for the 70 Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) eligible schools," wrote TIDES Director Richard Lapchick in his December 9 "Keeping Score When It Counts" report. This includes our state's only FBS school, the University of Minnesota, which is consistently among college football's worst in graduating Black players. Continue Reading →

Vivek Kabra
this wiki
Vivek Kabra lives in the Mumbai area of India, where he has used his scientific background to empower child and adults to eat food cooked in solar cookers. He is the creator of Suryakumbha, literally, a festive gathering celebrating the power of the sun. It involves a series of workshops conducted across the country, focused exclusively on hands-on experience with solar energy.
He was encouraged to start his solar cooking campaign after having lived with solar cooking growing up. His mother solar cooked throughout his childhood, and he thought solar cooking was the norm for everyone. Frustrated that solar cooking was being passed over by his local scientific community, only fueled his desire to spread awareness of the potential for solar cooking. Solar energy is available for free across the country and there is no transportation cost involved.
All the operations of Suryakumbha are run from Jalna district in Maharashtra, which lies 60 km (37 miles) from Aurangabad.
Read more about Vivek in this interview done in 2014.
Recent news and developments
- India raises the bar for the world's largest solar cooking class - "As many as 3,484 children from over 80 schools participated in the largest solar cooking initiative Suryakumbha on January 4th, which has qualified as an entry to the Guinness Book of World Records. The emergence of renewable sources of energy as an answer to the imminent exhaustion of conventional energy sources pushed a Bhayander NGO, Keshav Srushti, to start with the most influential members of society, children." The class was held in Mumbai, India. Read more...

If I have a weakness for anything, it would be handbags. I've mentioned this to you guys a long time ago, but I literally love handbags. It's the one thing I definitely save up for and splurge on. I feel like it does make all the difference to have and carry a nice designer bag.
I've collected a few of my favorite classic ones from different designers but always dreamt of having a Chanel 2.55. This vintage beauty is definitely a classic bag that all women need!
Save up and splurge! It's definitely your investment piece. You won't regret it. I promise.
Or… visit your nearest thrift stores and/or flea markets. They sell vintage designer pieces for more than half the price. I know I've bought a couple of vintage Gucci bags at my go-to flea market on Sundays. Make it an adventure to visit flea markets in hunt of a vintage designer bag! Don't stop until you find one…. Good luck! xo

- "In my family we say: A naked man has few secrets; a flayed man, none."
- ―Roose Bolton
House Bolton of the Dreadfort is a noble house from The North. Their lands are in the northeast of the formerly-owned Stark territories. Their stronghold is a castle called the Dreadfort and the head of the house is the Lord of the Dreadfort.[1]
House Bolton is infamous for its centuries-old practice of flaying their enemies alive, to the point that they use a flayed man as their House sigil. Lord Eddard Stark outlawed flaying in the North, but it is implied that the Boltons continue this practice in secret.[2]
House Bolton's sigil is a faceless flayed man upside-down on an x-shaped white cross over a field of black. Their official motto is "Our Blades Are Sharp" but a common saying of members of the house is "A Flayed Man Has No Secrets".
- Roose Bolton, the head of House Bolton, Lord of the Dreadfort.
- Ramsay Snow, his bastard son, acting as castellan of the Dreadfort.
- Walda Frey, his new wife.
- Reek
- Qyburn, a former maester acting as healer and in charge of the ravens during the Bolton occupation of Harrenhal. Now en route to King's Landing with Jaime Lannister
- Locke, Lord Bolton's master-at-arms, holding Harrenhal in Lord Bolton's name.
- Steelshanks, a man-at-arms sworn to Lord Bolton. En route to King's Landing with Jaime Lannister.

In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, House Bolton is noted as one of the most powerful families of the North. They are noted for flaying their enemies alive and even wearing their skins as cloaks. They have even captured and flayed Starks in the distant past. House Bolton were unruly vassals of the Starks until approximately a thousand years ago, when they finally bent the knee. Three hundred years later they rebelled but were defeated. The armies of House Stark besieged the Dreadfort for four years before finally forcing the Boltons to surrender and submit.
The Boltons are considered a sinister and ill-omened house, but Lord Roose Bolton is noted as a capable battle commander. Roose Bolton fought alongside Eddard Stark during Robert's Rebellion. After the Battle of the Trident, Roose suggested executing the defeated Barristan Selmy, but Eddard and Robert Baratheon refused.
Besides Lord Roose, the members of the family in the books are:
- Bethany Ryswell, Roose Bolton's late wife.
- {Domeric Bolton}, their only son and heir.
- Ramsay Snow, his bastard son.
Domeric Bolton died shortly before the beginning of the series, having sought out his bastard half-brother Ramsay (Domeric having always wanted a brother of his own). With no other trueborn heirs, Roose brought Ramsay to the Dreadfort and began to treat him as his heir.
The sigil of House Bolton in the books is a red flayed man on a field of pink with red blood drops. The TV series design has specified that the flayed man is displayed hanging upside down on an X-shaped cross. The color scheme in the TV series is slightly different: it is a red flayed man, but hanging upside-down on a white X-shaped cross with a black background.

A Fort Carson soldier and his wife deliver their baby in an unexpected place--in her car.
The newest addition to the Holcomb family is baby Ava.
"She was seven pounds, six ounces, 20 inches, super healthy, perfect little baby," said proud mom, Sarah Holcomb.
Sarah, her husband Nick and big sister Aislynn are adjusting to life as a family of four, after an unforgettable delivery.
"Everything turned out perfect," said Sarah.
After her water broke, Sarah and Nick drove to Evans Army Community Hospital on the Mountain Post, but they never made it inside.
"By the time I got to the parking lot, I knew it was going to happen right there," said Sarah.
She delivered Ava in the front seat of their car, with the help of her husband and a delivery and labor nurse who ran outside to help.
"I was kind of panicked, and then I was thinking 'this is happening,'" said Sarah.
Nick tells 11 News he tried to help any way he could.
"They needed a shoelace for the umbilical cord and so I was ripping off shoelaces," said new dad Nick.
There were no complications during the delivery, and both mom and baby were released from the hospital the next day.
It's a delivery story that the family can't wait to share with their new daughter when she's a little older.

*disclamer* just to start this of i am not some pro l33t player or anything like that and this just my opinion and it is subject to change.
tier 1-
GHEIST their bonus is just so damn stong and well their cards are much better than their counterpart the Roots imo, i dont think they are the best and they have their weakness "like SoB" and their mono decks arent as stong with the recent perma banns
Montana that attack reduction is just insane, they have so many good cards like Mona, Griezzo and Spiaghi probably the best clan, makes a nice mono or half deck
Skeelz so solid good in a half deck, mono and splash does pretty much every thing. nuff said
Piranas before i get started i have to say they are my main "well used to be" their bonus is really good, clans that need it like Rescue and GHEIST are just slaughtered most of their cards have huge power, pill manipulation is real strong Scrubb can just overpill and get away with it. Only down side half deck isnt so strong imo and their perma banns really make a difference.
Vortex their clan bonus is so forgiving and allows you to make huge plays and not geting punished for it, however the main problem is their bonus doent win fights. btw they are on the edge of being top of tier 2 but im nice like that.
ok so thats the end of tier 1 i just wanna say that thats not in any order and that if your favourite clan isnt there tier 2 is still very viable they just have down sides that tier 1 dont.

Breaking news: Downhills primary school to become an academy
18:38 20 June 2012
Downhills Primary School will be forced to become an academy - despite just three per cent of parents being in favour of the move in a consultation.
The Department for Education today confirmed the Tottenham school will reopen in September as an academy under the Harris Federation - which runs a string of schools in south London and, from the next academic year, Coleraine Park in Glendish Road, Tottenham.
This is in spite of a fierce battle from the Save Downhills group, who are desperate to keep the school under local authority control, and a consultation which revealed 94 per cent - or 219 of the 234 respondants - were against becoming an academy.
A second survey of 100 parents, carried out by Populus at the gates of the Philip Lane primary school, found 80 per cent wanted the school to remain under the Haringey's control.
Just 25 per cent, when given an option of sponsors if the school had to become an academy, selected Harris.
Yet Education Secretary Michael Gove stood by his plans to hand the school over to Harris, citing the latest Ofsted report and a report of the Interim Executive Board (IEB).
The IEB, including two Harris Federation staff members and four others, was parachuted in after Mr Gove sacked the governing body earlier this year.
A DfE spokesman said: "The IEB's report states that radical structural solutions are needed to deliver and sustain rapid improvement at the school and it is confident that the Harris Federation will be able to deliver such solutions.
"The Secretary of State has therefore decided that to deliver the improvement needed, the school should be converted to a sponsored academy under the leadership of the Harris Federation. The new academy will open in September.
"Harris, a not-for profit educational charity, will give the school the leadership and expertise it needs to improve. Harris has turned around a number of previously failing schools in London, nine of which have now been judged as outstanding."
Haringey NUT secretary Julie Davies has reacted angrily to the news - which came just one day after pupils, teachers and parents protested outside the DfE headquarters in central London.
She said: "The Secretary of State is clearly abusing his power. He is using the school for political purposes. This just proves that Mr Gove is both and ideologue and an enemy of promise - the promise shown by Haringey and its track record in running 62 primary school, not one."
But Harris Federation chief executive and IEB member Dr Dan Moynihan was "delighted". He said: "We have agreed to be sponsor because we firmly believe we have the track record and experience to transform the quality of education on offer at the school and to support the staff and pupils.
"Our first priority, in every school we operate, is to make sure that children receive their right to an excellent education. In sponsoring Downhills as an academy, we will be building on everything that is already good about the school in order to accelerate its path out of Special Measures and into Good and then Outstanding Ofsted status."
The Save Downhills campaign group have yet to comment on the news.

that is such a cool land shape! A nice idea as well.
I should be working now but nah. I'll map hell instead. Just a little.
My idea is a bit unrefined so far, but basically, I'm planning a map in something like this style (brought to my attention by Vorro), as if someone living in the now independent state of Hell, in the 1960s, drew a map of the colonial period when the underworld was invaded by colonial powers who couldn't find more land to conquer in the regular world. You know, when there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk on Earth but the other way around. And steampunk and stuff. And a style I haven't tried, which is usually fun. Here's the first step; coastlines, rivers and sketched mountains. The coloring is completely temporary, just to make it a little easier to see what's going on which may have been pretty futile
### Latest WIP ###
that is such a cool land shape! A nice idea as well.
Thanks! Here's a small update with more detailed mountains, and a new color test where darker color indicates lower land instead of the opposite, as in the style example. I think I like it better, it will give really strong contrast where the land meets water, and it also feels more intuitive to me that the lower areas are sort of shaded
### Latest WIP ###
And the color mock-up:
Great idea here! And a good shape too. Its interesting to see how you try new things.
Thank you! Trying new things is a lot of fun, in my opinion! It doesn't always turn out very good, but at least I enjoyed finding that out!
This one will have to turn out pretty fantastic if I'm going to have a chance in this challenge though There are some really amazing entries! And I haven't even come farther than a colored sea and some paint on the height lines.
### Latest WIP ###
The shape of the land is very original and "in motion". I love your sea, but it has something a bit "angelic" to me
Anyway, I'm very curious to see it done with those numerous mountains!
Thanks Ilanthar and Arsheesh! Interesting to hear your associations!
Hopefully this will look less angelic
### Latest WIP ###
I think I have abandoned the idea of a steampunk colonial era It will probably show the "current" state of Hell instead, as it looked when the map was "drawn", sometime in the sixties. The colonial powers are still strong there though, and in this particular region the native demons are confined to the southwestern part, while the humans live primarily in the north and east. The opening to the underworld appeared somewhere in southern Russia (no idea why, just felt like that ), hence a large Eastern Europe presence. But the British of course have a little part of Hell too, because they are everywhere
The russians actually spear headed the digging of the deepest hole in the world to study the mantle of the earth. Some people believed it would end the world by causing an eruption or opening the gates of hell. The project was stopped before they got to the mantle because it got so hot that all the dirt from the earths crust kept melting and falling in on itself. I can't remember the name of the project or exactly where in russia it is, but your reason for choosing russia has some backing
And BTW its looking really awesome!

Indeed !! I knew you would do an awesome use of those mountains! Your water coloring is so inimitable and excellent! The red and yellow of the land clashes gorgeously with the white and blue of the seas now... It feels like a battle to me. And Hell is winning !By Lingon
Hopefully this will look less angelic

Comments On May 27, 2015:Best levers I've used in 30 years!
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Feb 25, 2015:40+ Vet rider here. I have used many clutch levers/perches through the years and I have found that this is the top of the line perch and lever. The fit and finish is awesome. The generation 2 comes with two adjuster "barrels" for different cable lengths, so it will adapt to all bikes. Just order it, you won't be disappointed. Well worth the price once you see the quality compared to other brands.

Fitness and fellowship
Read a related story here.
BELO, W.Va. -- On Tuesdays and Thursdays, when the weather's good, you can see them out there, walking around and around church, 20 or 30 of them, circling the Little Dove Independent Baptist Church.
Some stride. A few hobble along with canes. "I may be in first gear, but I get there," said 72-year-old Wanda Maynard.
Last spring, they figured out that 15 times around the church is a mile.
"In Mingo County, if you try walking on the road, you risk getting flattened by a coal truck," said Pastor Jimmy Maynard (no relation to Wanda). A few hundred feet away, coal trucks whiz by on narrow, twisty W.Va. 65, a steep hill on one side, a creek on the other.
"They don't let coal trucks stop them," said Dr. Patty Jo Marcum, their medical adviser. She grew up in the 132-year-old church. "We're a close bunch," she said. "I'm so proud of them."
They started exercising last spring. Jesus was a healer, Pastor Maynard noted. "We had sisters and brothers with sugar problems, knee problems, arthritis and heart problems, and we decided it was time for us to step up," he said. "When the body's fit, the spirit's more likely to be fit, too."
"I advised them to walk and stretch," Marcum said. "They created their own program from there. They have such a good time together, they keep coming back, and I'm telling you, they're getting results."
"What Little Dove is doing is simple, straightforward and do-able," said the Rev. Jeff Allen, director of the West Virginia Council of Churches. "It doesn't cost them anything. It's something any church could easily do."
"Most churches have a nurse or doctor who can help them," Marcum said.
"If every West Virginia church did what Little Dove is doing with just 10 people, that would be 30,000 people with better health," Allen said. "Think about that."
There are roughly 3,000 churches in West Virginia. "Churches can be an important part of the answer to our health problems," he said. "It's got me thinking how we could spread this statewide."
Here's how they do it
When it's too cold to walk outside, the Little Dove walkers do laps around the basement fellowship room instead. "Thirty-two times around is a mile," Thompson said.
"We aren't doing this so we can be good-looking," Pastor Maynard said. "We're doing it so we can feel better and see our grandkids grow up. Enjoy the life God gave us."
Surrounded by junk-food ads, with no gym, they're learning how to protect themselves anyhow.
A typical session: At about 6 p.m., they pull into the parking lot and drift inside in sweatshirts and running shoes, hugging and weighing in, joking and checking blood pressures. "If you take those shoes off, you'll weigh less" somebody says. "I want you to look at how loose my pants are!" someone else says.
"Fellowship is the glue that holds it together," Pastor Maynard said. "We call it Fitness and Fellowship."
Mostly in their 50s and 60s, they pray and stretch, do knee bends, waist twists and leg lifts, and then start walking.
Ninety-year-old Arva Reynolds troops along, her Lifeline Rescue button hanging around her neck. People like to tease her about the time she pushed the button to find out if it would work, and a bunch of firemen arrived at her house. "I just wanted to see if I could get me a man," she said, shrugging. Everyone laughed.
They walk after Wednesday night church, too. That's three nights a week. Most exercise on their own, too.
Since May, they've shed several hundred pounds, collectively, and drastically lowered their blood pressure and sugar, fellowshipping and laughing all the way. "Others can see how well it's working," Pastor Maynard said. New people keep joining, he said, including some who don't attend Little Dove.
In the fall, a church member led them in the Arthritis Foundation's five-week "Walk with Ease" stretching program. "We still use lot of those exercises," Maynard said. They use others they got from Dr. Oz on TV.
"It goes by quick when you have people to talk with!" Beulah Davis said.
"We fellowship before and after we walk," Maynard said. "Lots of nights, we'll be here another hour, telling stories, laughing, praying, trading recipes and Bible health trivia, solving problems.
"We trade healthy recipes we find on the Internet, or sometimes tell how we changed a recipe to make it healthier," he added.
"We try to apply what we've learned at church dinners. We bring healthier dishes, grilled chicken instead of fried, vegetable dishes, what have you. We're still Baptists, and Baptists like to eat, but we've got choices at the dinners now."
"This has been good for the church. It's brought us all a lot closer," Thompson said. "We're taking care of each other. That makes you close."
"The fellowship keeps them coming back, the way they support and care for each other," Marcum said. If they had to exercise on their own, many probably wouldn't, she said.
"If people from another church want to do this, they should feel free to contact me," Pastor Maynard said.
The Little Dove program is taking a break for Christmas, he said, but come 2013, "We'll be walking again. This isn't a fad. It's lifestyle change."

The goal of this guide is help new players, understand the concepts of competitive file building.
In this guide I will build step by step a simple Wild Dogs file. Wild Dogs are ideal because 2 of them can be found in the Lawtia starter and their tribe buffer Black Hound Master is a common card.
1. The first step in file building is to determine the general file type of your file. We want to use Wild Dogs and most Wild Dogs related units are lvl3 so our file is going to be a lvl3 lawtia rush file (similar to the starter). Generally all competitive Lawtia files run 2-3 Shade and 1 copy of Death's Embrace and Bitter Destiny. Now that we know the file type, we need to decide the open unit (the unit you will always set at turn 1). Shade is the most popular lawtia open so we will choose Shade as our open unit. We now have the following:
2. Most lvl3 rushes usually open with a lvl3 free revive unit or a lvl3 that won't easily die. This is important because of the SP flow. If your lvl3 unit that you drop turn 2 dies and requires SP to revive you won't be able to set a lvl3 unit next turn. That is why we are going to add 3 copies of Hell Smoke. Hell Smoke is technically not a free revive, but with it's Refresh skill it doesn't require SP to be revived. After the second iteration the state of your file is the following:
3. The 3 main units are Shadow Hound, Magic Doll -Lycanthrope- and Black Hound Master (you could add other Wild Dogs like Black Hound or EX: Lycanhtrope [Fenrir] if you have them). Because they are the main units you will want to have 3 copies of them. So after the third iterations we have the following:
4. Now in this iteration I will add some additional units that have a synergy with our file. We already have 3 RNG1 units so we will need an unit with RNG 2 or higher, so I will add 3 copies of Augmented Sorcerer. Her open skill works with Black Hound Master's auto skill and she has a grimbane double attack for 1 SP.
5. We have 5 spaces left now. You could now add more cards that have synergy with your file or add tech units that will help you in certain match ups. First we are going to add a Copy of Salamander, why because you don't want Falkow files to generate SP and it can sometimes help you to bring 50 HP units to 40 HP so your Soul Skill will finish it off. Next we need something to help us deal with Big Units or units with a lot of DEF. For that I will add 1 copy of Warning Knife or if you don't have it a copy of Corruption.
6.The amount of LP for a rush file is usually optimal at 7-9 LP. You don't have to use the soul skill line up I used her, you can experiment and see what fits best your play style.
Now it is time to choose our soul skills, as first soul skill you want to use a soul skill that deal dmg and gives you SP or reduces the SP of your opponent. Soul skills of this type are the perfect fit for your file, because you want to be aggressive as much as possible and accelerate your own or slow down your opponent. A good common soul skill that does is Crest Sabotage Knight. As second soul skill I will use a dmg soul that will keep up the pressure on my opponent. A good ss for that is Volcano Wyvern. As third soul skill I will use Assassin, because Warning Knife might not be enough to deal with Bigs. As 4th ss I will use a 20 x Lawtia Sphere dmg ss and as last Soul skill you should use a 3 LP that won't hurt your file that much, a good one that you get with the starter is Leviathan.
7. If you still have space. For the 3 remaining spaces you can add anything you want that will help either help your soul skills to trigger properly or cards that will help you against certain match ups. I will add 1 Crest Spy as tech against Bigs, 1 copy of Consuming Grudge to help the timing of my Assassin and 1 copy of Exchange of Souls.
