prev | next
(a) Annual report
After the end of each fiscal year, the Corporation shall submit to the Congress a complete and detailed report of its operations during such fiscal year. Such report shall include—
(1) an assessment, based upon the development impact profiles required by section 2199 (h) of this title, of the economic and social development impact and benefits of the projects with respect to which such profiles are prepared, and of the extent to which the operations of the Corporation complement or are compatible with the development assistance programs of the United States and other donors; and
(2) a description of any project for which the Corporation—
(A) refused to provide any insurance, reinsurance, guaranty, financing, or other financial support, on account of violations of human rights referred to in section 2199 (i) of this title; or
(B) notwithstanding such violations, provided such insurance, reinsurance, guaranty, financing, or financial support, on the basis of a determination
(i) that the project will directly benefit the needy people in the country in which the project is located, or
(b) Effect of all projects on employment in United States to be included in annual report
(1) Each annual report required by subsection (a) of this section shall contain projections of the effects on employment in the United States of all projects for which, during the preceding fiscal year, the Corporation initially issued any insurance, reinsurance, or guaranty or made any direct loan. Each such report shall include projections of—
(A) the amount of United States exports to be generated by those projects, both during the start-up phase and over a period of years;
(2) The projections required by this subsection shall be based on an analysis of each of the projects described in paragraph (1).
(3) In reporting the projections on employment required by this subsection, the Corporation shall specify, with respect to each project—
(A) any loss of jobs in the United States caused by the project, whether or not the project itself creates other jobs;
No proprietary information may be disclosed under this paragraph.
(d) Maintenance of records
The Corporation shall maintain as part of its records—
(1) all information collected in preparing the report required by subsection (c) of this section (as in effect before October 1, 1988), whether the information was collected by the Corporation itself or by a contractor; and
(e) Assessment of cooperative political risk insurance program
Each annual report required by subsection (a) of this section shall include an assessment of programs implemented by the Corporation under section 2194b (a) of this title, including the following information, to the extent such information is available to the Corporation:
(1) The nature and dollar value of political risk insurance provided by private insurers in conjunction with the Corporation, which the Corporation was not permitted to provide under this subpart.
(2) The nature and dollar value of political risk insurance provided by private insurers in conjunction with the Corporation, which the Corporation was permitted to provide under this subpart.
(f) Information not required to be made available to public excluded from reports

|Premier Ball
|0 (buy 10+ Poké Balls at once)
|First Appearance:
|Generation III
|Catch Rate:
The Premier Ball (プレミアボール Premier Ball) was created for a special event. It is entirely white except for the band around the middle which is red. According to the official Pokémon Colosseum game guide, it has the same catch rate as a regular Poké Ball, but "it looks cooler."
It can be obtained by purchasing 10 regular Poké Balls from a shop (Generation III onward).
- Because you obtain a free Premier Ball when purchasing a least 10 regular Poké Balls from a shop, it is more money-efficient to just buy 10 Poké Balls at a time, and repeating the process if purchasing more.
Premier Balls have a minor glitch to them. When one is thrown, and if it's your last, Poké Ball D, and if the target is a Legendary Pokémon, it will have a 8x catch rate.[citation needed]

May 3, 2016
The Teacher of the Week for Wednesday, November 13th 2013 is Cassandra Byrd.
She is the Business Education Teacher at Riverside High School in Williamston.
Byrd has been teaching for seven years.
She graduated from NC State with a Bachelor's degree in Speech Communications. She worked at GlaxoSmithKline for seventeen years as a Training and Development Consultant and as a Senior Pharmaceutical Sales Representative before deciding to return to college to become a certified elementary teacher.
In 2006, she graduated with her Masters in Elementary Education from East Carolina University. From 2006-2008, she taught second grade. In 2008, in order to utilize her vast years of experience in the business world, she got a second certification in Business Education. She then began teaching at the high school level.
She is married and has three children.
Byrd writes: "What I love most about teaching is taking on the challenge of teaching my course content to students with such diverse backgrounds and styles of learning. I make every effort to get to know some of the likes and dislikes of each of my students. I then incorporate several different ways of accomplishing tasks, assignments and projects for my classes that will allow these likes and dislikes to be addressed. It takes a lot of extra time planning my lessons each week, but the results are remarkable. When I see the smiles and comfort level exuded amongst students in my classroom each and every day and the excellent final post assessment scores, the extra time is well worth it."
Byrd received two nominations. One of them stated Ms. Byrd "is an excellent teacher with lots of energy, patience, and compassion. She teaches all levels of students at the same time and does it well. She does step by step instructions with her classes and takes extra time to help out the students that move at a slower pace while encouraging the faster paced students as well. The students LOVE her and have fun while they learn. Ms. Byrd is also a wonderful role model not only for her teaching but because she is very active in her church , very active with her family."

King's Disappointment
Both King and Gandhi were frustrated that they could get people to protest but not to serve.
Thinking that my friend Martin Luther King might turn over in his grave if he knew the holiday in his name was becoming just another day of shopping, TV, and relaxation, in 1994 I went to one of Martin's comrade-in-arms, Congressman John Lewis. "How do we make it a day on, not a day off?" I asked.
As legislators (I was a senator from Pennsylvania at the time), our solution was a bill. Congress passed the law charging the new Corporation for National Service and the Federal King Holiday Commission with organizing it as a national day of service.
It seemed so obvious. After all, it was King who had said, "Everybody can be great because everybody can serve." And he said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is 'What are you doing for others?'" King and "service" are virtually synonymous, we thought.
Yet I have a confession. The holiday we created emphasizes something for which King was not known.
Rather, he was most closely associated with civil disobedience, struggle, a season of suffering, marching through unfriendly streets, facing snarling dogs, and going to jail. And, of course, as one whom Martin used to describe as the only lawyer in his camp who would help him go to jail instead of using all the tricks of the trade to keep him out of jail, I know that his insistence on nonviolent action changed the course of history.
Yet I believe that Martin would be deeply disappointed that his name were connected only with the fight for racial justice and nonviolent protest.
Time and again, Martin talked with me about a side of Mahatma Gandhi that deeply appealed to him. Not just the Gandhi of the salt march, and the years in prison, but Gandhi the servant leader.
Gandhi said thatsatyagraha
--the name he gave to his way of action, "firmness in truth"--had two sides: civil disobedience and, the other side of the coin, constructive service.
Gandhi often said that his purpose in life was to live the sermon on the mount. He asked the Indian independence movement to carry out a 13-point plan of constructive service that included personal action to end untouchability by working, eating, and serving side by side with untouchables, by adopting them as members of one's family. It included teaching all Indians to read and bringing health care to every village.

The Haines Solar Cooker combines the power of a Funnel cooker with stability of the traditional CooKit. It has been designed by Roger Haines of San Diego, California, USA. The cooker is made in the USA from a mylar-coated bubble insulation material that is sold "off-the shelf" at Lowe's Home Centers in 4-foot by 25-foot rolls. The material can also be ordered on-line under different brand names. The material is strong (Roger has driven his car over it without breaking the bubbles) and it is unaffected by boiling water. The cooker is made from a single 48" by 54" rectangle of bubble material, and requires only three cuts with ordinary scissors for cooker assembly. In testing in November, 2012 in San Diego, this cooker heated an empty pot to a sustained 380 degrees Fahrenheit (193 degrees Celsius) and heated a liter of water from room temperature to boiling in less than an hour.
The two curves of the cooker form an oval funnel. The base of the cooker should be anchored with rocks or bricks as shown in the photo. On windy days, the bottom curve of the cooker can be prevented from being blown upward, by wrapping a circle of string around each side of the curve, and securing the string with the same brick or rock that is used to hold down the back flaps of the cooker. So secured, the cooker can withstand quite strong winds. When the sun is high, the cut at the front bottom of the cooker can be overlapped and clipped together with a binder clip to concentrate more sun on the cooking pot.
The Haines Polycarbonate Sleeve eliminates the nylon cooking bag commonly used in solar cooking. This sleeve is a cylinder of stiff polycarbonate or other high-temperature plastic film (about the stiffness of card stock paper), which encloses the bottom and sides of the pot but not the top. The cylinder can be held together with paper clips, which allows its diameter to be adjusted to fit a variety of cooking pots The pots must be round, with no handles, and must have a top rim that can rest on the top of the cylinder. The cylinder elevates the pot above the surface of the cooker, allowing the sun's rays to bounce off the reflective surface of the cooker and be absorbed by the bottom of the cooking pot. It also provides an insulating "greenhouse" making a traditional cooking bag unnecessary. Haines's testing indicates that a pot with a glass lid retains more heat than one with a metal lid.
Kirkpatrick Solar Cooker (Kirk-ook) variation
Mark Evans Kirkpatrick has offered modifications to the Haines Solar Cooker, known as the Kirk-ook. The base reflector is slotted through the rear reflector to provide more stability for the cooker in windy conditions (with less base material extended and more base material supported). The bottom-rear of the cooker can be supported with rocks as shown in the picture. By extending the sides you will create a wave-like formation focusing more rays in the center for higher effectiveness (depending on the angle of the sun). Higher temperatures can be reached using a turkey bag around the pot & lid on windy days (alleviating the effect from high winds, elevating the pot 2" with black rocks) . The plastic film can be coated with UV agents to avoid discoloration and distortion. Alternate transparent plastics are being tested for higher heat resistance (*email suggestions). It is recommended using clear packaging tape to cover each area that is cut (easier when applied prior to cutting out the design) on each side of the cooker. Tape can also be added to other areas prone to wear-and-tear (mainly the latching triangles that replaced the Velcro or binder clips).

I was one of those Century Club members who, after several years with a parking pass, lost out this year. I guess I gambled, thinking I would have enough points to hold on to my parking pass. If you look at the number of Nat'l Cyclone Club members at the Century Club level, that is a lot of people losing parking. I just hope I don't walk by the donor lot with thousands of empty spaces, similar to the Cardinal level and up lots the past several years.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Personally, I think they should have offered the donors not able to get passed into the donor lots, season passes to the grass lots. I'd be estatic then.
We prefer to park in the grass. Easier on the body when ya want to play a game of catch, etc.
So...we lost out on parking this year...it wasn't a huge deal...except we've got to pay for it.
I'm just not sure what the incentive is to donate $100, as opposed to donating the minimum $50 to the National Cyclone Club, if you still have to pay $10 per game for public parking.
It has also been rumored that seat assignments will be re-evaluated next year.
Pollard better hope we are successful this year. Another "dagger in the heart" type of season and he'll be begging people to come back!
Were parking passes supposed to be sent along with tickets or separate? Will they let you know if you don't get a pass or the fact that you don't get one the notice?I've been a season holder and NCC $100 member for 6 years but not counting on getting one this year. I'd give more but its going to cost me about the amount of a cardinal membership just to drive the 3 hours.I hope taking away some of the fringe benefits a lot of smaller donors enjoy don't come back to bite us. We are going to need some major success on the field to keep the interest really going. A lot of interest has been increasing because of Pollard is doing. If FB lays an egg or underachieves, it's tough to keep peoples interest or to get them to give more. Hopefully we get 8 wins or more and this isn't a problem. Been nice to get those last year!
cydsho- all parking passes were sent with season tickets. According to the Nat'l Cyclone Club, some but not all of the State's 250 Members received parking passes. Apparently a lot of people upped there donation this year, which is great for the program.
However I just wish, instead of taking away parking to donors, find more parking for them...
I am one of those from the century club that moved up to Cardinal. My parking is actually in the section behind Cardinal because I didn't have enough points. It seems that there were plenty people who went up in membership, judging by the numbers below.
So, don't worry about the people in the parking spaces. There will be plenty. I completely understand why Pollard had to up the parking permit donation. They were giving out more parking spaces than they had. In sell-outs, aka Iowa and Nebraska, not all of the donors were getting their promised parking. I would rather him make sure he can keep a committment, than know that he can't and do nothing about it.

I added all of those numbers together, and it ended up being 13,911,750. That seems a lot higher than I remember in year's past, and it's very encouraging to me.
Quick question: What percentage of money from Alumni association donations goes to athletics, if any?
I don't believe the Alumni Association is apart of the Athletic budget. They are a separate entity that works in relationship with the university. I don't know if they give anything to the Athletic department, that is what the National Cyclone Club does. The Alumni Association gives their money to the University. The University, in turn, helps the Athletic budget.
If anyone knows otherwise, please correct me.
So umm.....I got my tickets on Saturday to find that I did not receive a parking pass.......I was so caught up in the moment and so giddy that the tickets finally arrived it didn't hit me that I didn't recieve my parking pass. This is my first year getting season tickets and first year of donating to the NCC. I donate the lowly $50/year, being that I'm still a young'n.
Did I not get the pass because I donate the lowest amount and because I just started donating? Little help please.

This year you wouldve needed to give to the States 250 to get a parking pass.
probably a dumb question, but what is the easiest way to join the NCC? I am a lifetime member of the Alumni Association, but have never been an NCC member - I would like to change that. Thanks.
Did anyone in the $250 level get a pass? I thought you have to give at least $500 to be certain to get a pass.
We thought that was too much money considering just last year we paid $100 a pass and on our budgets from not being out of college that long we'd rather pay $10 a game to park in the grass lots compared to what would be $62.50 a game had we given $500 this year. The $250 we might have lived with but considering we could give that times about 3-4 parking passes we usually get for our group and wind up not getting a single pass it wasn't worth the risk.
Besides, I think the grass lots may actually be closer to the stadium than where we were at clear over by Hilton the past few years. The people in the grass lots are more likely to be fun and there as early as we get there. Usually we'd be some of the first people in the paved lots and a couple hours later the lot would finally start to fill up. I remember the days when the lots next to the stadium were packed full within an hour of the lots opening. Tailgating next to the stadium is basically dead now since that change...

There's the contact info for the office to get an application for the NCC.
Travman23- according to people at the Nat'l Cyclone Club, some members of the State's 250 received parking (the ones with the most points built up). Others did not.
Ok...here's another story for you all. I currently donate at the $250 level. A few weeks ago, I called the NCC to increase my giving level to $500 so I could get a "guaranteed" spot. During my call I also requested an RV pass since I have transit bus which I converted into a tailgater. Long story short, last year I was awarded an RV spot at the $250 level. This year I was told that a RV pass would require a $1,500 donation ($215/game) since demand is so high. I kindly said...no thanx. I've been a season ticket holder for 10 years and even though I understand what Pollard is up to, I think we are walking on thin ice with this concept of selling passes to the highest bidder. My story gets better. I DID receive a parking pass...but I will not be able to use it because my bus does not fit into a "single" slot. I have friends lining up to use it...

Buying Online Drugs Safely
Topic Overview
Buying medicine over the Internet can make life a lot easier. Medicines on the Internet are sometimes cheaper. Your pills are delivered to your door.
Unfortunately, there are many dishonest online drugstores—and it can be hard to tell the honest ones from the dishonest ones. So you need to be very careful when you're buying medicines online.
How can you safely buy drugs online?
You can safely buy medicine online if you use online pharmacies recommended by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy. This organization verifies Internet drugstores throughout the United States and most Canadian provinces.
The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy has created a website at www.awarerx.org. You can visit this site to find out which online drugstores are recommended and which aren't.
It's also safe to buy medicine through your health insurance company's website.
Don't trust an online drugstore if: 1
- The website doesn't ask you for a prescription.
- The drugstore isn't a licensed pharmacy. In the U.S. and Canada, pharmacies are licensed by individual state or provincial governments.
- The online drugstore doesn't have a licensed pharmacist available to answer your questions.
- The website isn't "secure." This means that any information you type in—your address, your credit card number—could be read and used by anyone who comes across it. Secure websites use special tools to "encrypt" your information. They turn it into a code that other people can't read. You can tell that a website is secure if the URL (the Web address) begins with "https" rather than just "http."
Why should you worry about online drugs?
You could end up buying pills that hurt rather than help.
A research project by the European Alliance for Access to Safe Medicines found that more than half the drugs bought online as part of the project were either fake or were too strong or too weak.2
Criminals who sell drugs online have one goal: to make money. So they often focus on medicines that are in demand. Examples include:2
- The erectile dysfunction drugs Cialis and Viagra.
- The Alzheimer's disease drugs Aricept and Razadyne.
- The schizophrenia drug Zyprexa.
- The depression drug Effexor.
- The heart drug Plavix.
- The weight loss drug Reductil. This drug is no longer sold legally because it has been linked to heart attack and stroke.
Many fake drugs are expertly packaged. They look like the real thing, but they may have been made under very dirty conditions. And they may contain ingredients like chalk, sugar, and flour instead of the medicine you need. In the worst cases, a fake pill will contain drugs or chemicals that could harm you.

Worker misclassification occurs when a worker is not classified as an employee, but should be. Some forms of misclassification occur when workers are not reported at all, such as when working off the books or being paid under the table in cash. Misclassification also occurs when workers are classified incorrectly as independent contractors.
Misclassification of workers is not only wrong, it's against the law. Employers that misclassify employees as independent contractors cut costs by not paying unemployment contributions, workers' compensation insurance and social security withholdings. These employees are off the books and unable to access employee benefits such as health insurance and pension plans. More importantly, misclassified workers are denied the protection of the state laws, such as unemployment and workers' compensation in the event that they lose their job due to no fault of their own or incur a workplace injury. Are you off the books?
Consequences of 1099 Fraud
Employers that knowingly misclassify their employees face penalties in the amount of $50 to $1,000 per day per misclassified worker, and/or up to six months in jail per violation. State statute allows the Division of Employment Security (DES) to penalize an employer 25 percent of the amount the state has been defrauded. If an employer classifies an employee as an independent contractor and does not have a reasonable basis for doing so, the employer will be held liable for unemployment taxes for that worker. Knowingly failing to insure workers' compensation liability under the law is a class A misdemeanor, and is also punishable by a civil penalty of up to three times the annual premium the employer would have paid had it been insured or up to $50,000, whichever is greater. To determine whether a worker is classified correctly, Missouri uses the IRS 20-factor test to identify his or her legal status.
*Please note, employers with five or more employees, if applicable, must submit the federal 1099 miscellaneous forms to the Department of Revenue (those who intentionally fail to do so are subject to fines).
We are here to help:
Our department provides educational training to businesses that have questions about this issue. Learn more and sign up today! Make sure your business is in compliance with the law and that you are properly classifying your workers. Read our informational brochure.
Report 1099 Fraud
If you feel that a business may be improperly classifying their workers, take our new worker misclassification assessment. To report a business, use our online report form or call our worker misclassification hotline at 573-751-1099.
Did you know?
In Missouri in 2014, 7,517 misclassified workers were identified. These workers were employed by 1,118 employers. Those employers owed an additional $1,370,272 (est) due to misclassification.

As I said before the board went down, this thread has nothing to do with the Misfits. This thread is all about a fire inside me, a burning need to kill. My eyes radiate with anger, I am the one with the radiating eyes. I will be the boy who destroyed the world, even if it takes me forever and a day. Someday I will sit atop the world on a weathered throne and it will be a perfect fit. I will look down on my subjects in their prayer position and I will whisper 'my fallen children... the devil loves you'. As the great disappointment that is mankind sings in sorrow, I will be the one who laughs last.

A state judge has declined to let the defense lawyer remove himself from the trial of the business partner of a Zumba dance instructor charged with running a prostitution business from her Kennebunk studio.
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) _ Mark Strong Sr.'s defense lawyer told a judge that his client doesn't have money to continue paying him and that he didn't have resources to fully prepare for trial.
But the Justice Nancy Mills rejected the motion Friday, just as she'd rejected previous motions earlier in the week to delay the trial and to move it to another location.
The trial is scheduled to start with jury selection on Tuesday.

Our New Year's resolution
My family is so excited about a new year's resolution we just made that we want to share it around. At the dinner table the other day we were talking about the new year and what it had in store for us, and the discussion got around to New Year's resolutions. As usual with my teen son and daughter, they began challenging each other to come up with the coolest, most do-able resolution for 2012, and without noticing, we parents were soon drawn into the contest.

All Day
Event Description
Sorrows of War
Feb. 16 – March 24
Reception Thursday, Feb. 21, 5–7 p.m.
When most Americans are far removed from any actual armed conflict, when Hollywood so often glamorizes & portrays war as heroic and video games of war are ubiquitous and at times glorified, how can we understand the consequences of war to individual human beings, to their families and to society as a whole?
How can a society understand the true costs of war to those caught up in a conflict, be they soldiers or civilians? We witness a virtual war on the news, but how can we truly understand the reality of these events? How can we understand that every casualty of war—whether the injury is visible or not—every death means suffering for the individual and for those who know them.
This collection of works of art is an attempt to bring attention to the personal cost of war.
Rust Hall Main Gallery Hours
Monday–Friday: 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Saturday: 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Sunday: Noon – 3 p.m.


text: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection, or ICSI, is a form of in vitro fertilization in which fertilization occurs outside of the body. First, egg cells are harvested and transferred to a special media in a laboratory dish. Within a few hours, a single sperm is injected through a fine needle into the center of an egg cell to aid in the process of fertilization. If successful, the cell will divide and form the beginning stages of an embryo. If necessary, the DNA of a single cell from an embryo may be checked to ensure that various genetic disorders are not present. Typically, several egg cells are harvested and fertilized at the same time then inserted back into the uterus to increase the chances that one will implant and develop into a successful pregnancy.

Azam`s Mainland premiership title race banks heavily on how they fair in today's return leg tie against visiting Mtibwa Sugar to be played at the former's backyard of Chamazi this afternoon.
Azam who have attained 50 points have three matches to wind up the season and need hundred percent clean sheets to sail through.
A loss to Mtibwa would lower Azam's ceiling in terms of points while opening wide opportunity to pacemakers Simba in their title aspirations.
Mtibwa who have won more premiership matches against Azam in Dar es Salaam stand at the latter's title passage.
Azam are in must win situation and have to play it safe despite a massive home ground advantage at Chamazi.
Wining would keep Azam in title hunt as they have two more games before ending the season, all to be played at their Chamazi backyard.
With 35 points to their credit Mtibwa Sugar have an opportunity to pile up pressure on dethroned champions Young Africans in the race towards finishes third in the premiership race, their best over performance after four seasons.
Azam with a ceiling of 59 points should they post victories in the rest of their three matches remaining in the fixture, would pile pressure on Simba in the event they breeze past Mtibwa this afternoon.
Third finish in the premiership standings is of no use for any team but would herald a significant achievement for Mtibwa Sugar, the former Mainland champions.

Wow, he was terrible last night with the ball. I hope it's a one game funk because it was like he forgot how to dribble. He had some nice athletic moments but Buckley should have been in the game much sooner.
He needs to start finishing around the basket. It seems he misses every one of them. He has shown some good passing and defense. Hopefully he starts picking up on things, but he has time.
He's a freshman, and that's going to happen. I'm hoping when we get into more competitive games that McD turns to Buckley a little sooner too. It's good experience for Colvin since the games so far have been completely in the bag from the tip, maybe Buckley will be first in when we get to tougher matchups. I imagine we'll find out this weekend.
I think having 2 other capable point guards in buckley and DG will allow him time to learn. The good thing is we don't need him to have a huge role right away. DG was starting as a freshman and really struggled at times. Colvin has great potential and will be very good down the road. He's only played in 5 games so far so I've probably expected way too much out of a true freshman pg.
I'm just happy we aren't only having to depend on a freshmen to run our point. He is just one of several options. DG is solid. I'm not concerned.

Not in CO anymore but I'm not changing my name :)
He needs to understand that, with the talent he has around him, he doesn't need to be a playmaker right now. He really just needs to be a competent point guard, and he will see some minutes. Playing like this will reduce his minutes, particularly in close games.

dribble, dish no need to score my man. He'll get it and one day will be GREAT!

I agree Colvin didn't look great. Tenn State was kind of a scrappy, pressing team. We were too good and were able to beat them on it, but they were always kind of poking at the point guards. You could tell DG had been through it before and Chris hadn't.
Right now Colvin is playing for his defense and to build experience...b/c we'll need his defense. He oozes potential (found out last night that he can JUMP)--just needs minutes and coaching.
I'm not worried but I found myself feeling for Buckley because Colvin was handing the ball to TSU. We'll be fine.
DG had a hard time finishing around the basket as well. Colvin will settle down and when he has some more experience he will go ape **** on teams without a doubt.
He had some bad turnovers but he looks like he has a TON of potential. That jump stop driving basket last night hasnt been seen since Tinsley's days here.

@cyfert26 on Twitter
He is doing the same thing Will Blalock did at this point in his career. He will show us something. Then nothing. It's a freshman thing. If he ends up like Blalock I will be completely satisfied. Give him time.
Nobody but HB knows for sure. You pretty much know nothing....like Knownothing would like to say.
Agree with the above statements, I think he needs to value the ball a little more and maybe underestimated his opponent. Still a freshman, good game to have an off night, definitely potential there.

The maps I have done are all for the fantasy world I created. I have been writing a story since 2002 and I started mapping out stuff later. I only had a couple of rough sketches.
Don't name everything, a lot of places in my world don't have a name either. You don't want to clutter your maps too much anyway, unless you are going for an atlass style map. I found naming stuff difficult as well. That's why the names of places of interest in my world have simple, logical names, like "Greenwood" for a city located in large woods and "Northgate" for a town that lies to the north. I also used the fantasy name generator to get some more exotic names:
Oh, and I cheated a bit, as the overland map I needed didn't have any continents or seas

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) -- Airbus says it will build its first assembly plant in the United States in Alabama.
The official announcement Monday gives the European aerospace giant its first foothold in the U.S. to compete with archrival Boeing. The plant will make passenger airplanes.
The plant is expected would cost $600 million to build and will employ 1,000 people when it reaches full production. It will be built in Mobile.
Boeing has employed hundreds of people in Alabama for years. Airbus had planned to build in Alabama previously to manufacture refueling tankers for the U.S. Air Force. But its parent company, the European Aeronautic Defense and Space Co., lost the contract to Boeing in 2011.
The companies have had a long-running international trade dispute. Each also has been critical of subsidies received by the other.

More children in the United States than ever before are being diagnosed with some form of autism.
Take a look at the skyrocketing numbers from the Centers for Disease Control:
While experts continue to research and debate the cause, many frustrated families are left wondering what they can do to lower their risk.
A board-certified Tampa pediatrician has created an experimental prevention program that includes three ways to increase your chances of having a healthy baby.
"I think every mother is concerned about how their child is going to turn out," says newly pregnant mother Orel Zwiebel.
Some parents in the Tampa Bay area, like Orel, are taking a proactive approach. They're looking for ways to prevent autism BEFORE pregnancy.
Even with one healthy child, Orel took extra steps the second time around. She turned to Tampa pediatrician Dr. David Berger from Wholistic Pediatrics for suggestions. He admits this is a controversial area. Dr. Berger specializes in kids with autism and, over the past decade, developed a pre-pregnancy testing program to check for vitamin deficiencies and toxins.
10 News Anchor Heather Van Nest recently interviewed the doctor to find out if his methods are effective.
Heather Van Nest: Can you REALLY prevent autism?
Dr. Berger: So far, we have had a tremendous amount of success. In over 10 years and hundreds of children born into our practice, we know of no children who have gone on to develop autism, even in families who have had one child already.
Those high risk families already have a one-in-seven chance of having another child with autism.
Heather: So how did you come up with these suggestions?
Dr. Berger: It was really out of necessity. Families who had a child with autism, who started nutritional and toxin testing, we found these things in the child, so the family started asking, "Is it possible that the mom could have these types of findings?"
Heather: There are a lot of doctors out there who would say this is controversial. "How can he say autism can be prevented?" What do you say to them?
Dr. Berger: I would say yes, we need more research, but the experience we've had a lot of success with, the types of things that we're talking about are nutritional things that are well known and should be done to support pregnancy in the first place. However, it's not common for doctors to proactively check for these things ahead of time.
Here are three things Dr. Berger checks and corrects BEFORE pregnancy:
Including Iron, B-vitamins, Omega-3 fatty acids and Vitamin D levels.
Dr. Berger says low levels of vitamin D in the mother have been linked to delayed language development and weaker immune systems.
Untreated Hypothyroidism is a known cause of developmental delays in children.
Including pesticides, lead, and mercury, which have been linked to learning disorders.
For moms like Orel, the early testing motivated her to make changes. "Mentally, it gives me peace of mind and physically my pregnancy is a lot easier. I don't feel drained or tired and I feel like I have good energy, and that's an important factor," she says.
Dr. Berger wrote an article that includes all of his nutritional and environmental strategies to lower the risk of autism in Autism Science Digest. Click here to read.
Many researchers suspect autism may have genetic and environmental triggers.
The Children's Environmental Health Center at Mount Sinai School of Medicine created a research-based list of the "Top 10 Toxic Chemicals suspected of causing autism and other learning disabilities." Click here to read.
In response to some viewer comments, we have included this editorial from Dr. Berger:
As a person with both ADHD and sensory integration issues, I have had life experiences similar to some people who are on the Autism Spectrum. In no way am I attempting to extinguish autistic existence. If anyone took that as my message - then I truly am sorry. I embrace the individuality of all. My approach towards people with autism is to help them obtain their maximum potential, not eliminate them.
Families seek out my assistance and I try to provide whatever help they need. When a child with autism cannot communicate his/her needs or explain what is bothering them, or is irritable much of the day, or who sleeps poorly, it is difficult for parents to care for all of their family's needs. Usually when these symptoms are improved, I often get the opportunity to see a beautiful mind grow. I fully agree that the road to improving the life of a child on the spectrum is through education and traditional therapies, but often we can remove roadblocks that permit the child to flourish at a faster pace. I often ask families if they are content with how their child is doing. If a family is comfortable with where the child is at, then we try to back off the various biomedical therapies and see how things progress. I am also a strong supporter of the emotional well being of families that have children with special needs. I encourage families to find ways to gain acceptance of their life events .
I know there are many doubters of the biomedical approach, mostly because of the lack of good research that supports its use. But with each child having his/her own combination of genes and exposures, it is very difficult to study these kids. However, I have seen countless children have a quick, remarkable decrease in their hyperactivity, irritability, or abdominal symptoms when they respond to an antifungal therapy, a dietary change, or an amino acid. It is my experience that there is no single biomedical therapy that a majority of children respond to - but a strong majority will respond to something.
Early on in my career, parents of children on the autism spectrum asked me if there were things that they could consider to decrease the likelihood of having another child with challenges. The issues that I bring up in the Autism Science Digest article are real concerns that many have reported on and researched. This is a review article that raises many questions and contains my personal observations. There is no family who has made every change that is discussed in this article.
There seems to be significance to the approach we are taking in that it has helped to keep children born into our practice healthy and well-developing. And I am not talking just about neurodevelopmental issues. I rarely see these children have an ear infection. I cannot recall the last time a child developed asthma. These kids have not developed colitis, diabetes, cancer, or significant immune problems either.
If a family wishes to make one or more changes in their lifestyle, or try to correct an imbalance, in an attempt to improve their child's future health - shouldn't we support them in their decision? It is my goal to address these needs. I hope that over the next decade, we can conduct good research to see which, if any of these strategies, can result in better outcomes.
In Good Health,
David Berger, MD, FAAP

- Draco: "You have something of mine. I'd like it back."
- Harry: "What's wrong with the one you have?"
- Draco: "It's my mother's. It's powerful but, it's not the same... doesn't quite, understand me. Know what I mean?"
- — Draco asking Harry for his wand back.
The wand of Draco Malfoy is 10" precisely, Hawthorn wood and with a unicorn hair core. It was described by Mr. Ollivander as "reasonably pliant".[1] It was taken from him by Harry Potter in Malfoy Manor in 1998, which would have unforeseen and enormous consequences in Harry's final duel with Lord Voldemort.
Draco presumably received his wand from Mr. Ollivander in 1991, just prior to his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
In 1997, Draco cornered Albus Dumbledore atop the Astronomy Tower, disarming the Headmaster. He was under orders from Lord Voldemort to kill Dumbledore, and had made multiple attempts over the course of the year to do so, terrified for his family's safety.[2] Draco had no idea that by disarming Dumbledore, he became the master of his wand — the Elder Wand, one of the Deathly Hallows[3]. He was unable to go through with the murder, and Severus Snape stepped in to kill Dumbledore per their secret plan[2].
In spring of the following year, Draco was home for the Easter holidays when a group of Snatchers led by Fenrir Greyback caught Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley, and brought the three of them and their other prisoners to the Malfoy Manor. In the skirmish that ensued, Draco was disarmed by Harry, who won the wand's allegiance and subsequently used it. Draco's mother gave him her wand to use.
- "It's my mum's, but it doesn't work as well, it doesn't understand me."
- —Draco Malfoy to Harry Potter on his mother's wand
During the Battle of Hogwarts, Voldemort found that the Elder Wand, otherwise known as the Deathstick or Wand of Destiny, which he had taken from Dumbledore's tomb, was not working as impressively as he had hoped. Believing that this was because Snape had its allegiance after killing Dumbledore, Voldemort had Nagini kill Snape. When he and Harry faced off shortly afterwards, Harry corrected him: since Draco had disarmed Dumbledore, he was the true master of the Elder Wand, not Snape. When Harry disarmed Draco in Malfoy Manor, the Elder Wand's allegiance shifted to him. Thus, when Voldemort tried to use the Killing Curse on Harry, the Elder Wand refused to attack him. The curse backfired, defeating the Dark Lord once and for all.[3]
It is unknown if Draco ever got his original wand back. If so, it is unknown if the returned wand would continue to function for him as it had before Harry won it, as it is never stated how a wand that has been won behaves towards it's original master afterwards.
Behind the scenes
- In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Draco comments that his mother was "up the street looking at wands", when talking to Harry Potter in Madam Malkin's. This suggests the possibility that his wand was purchased for Draco by his mother, Narcissa Malfoy, and that it therefore never "chose him". However, it is much more likely Narcissa was simply comparing the wandmakers' craftsmanship and that Draco joined her afterwards and was chosen by his wand, when she had decided from which wand shop they would make their purchase.
- Draco's wand wood matches his date of birth in the Celtic tree calendar. However, it is unlikely that this was intentional on J. K. Rowling's part, as she once commented: "I have only used the Celtic assignations for Ron and Hermione... I liked having a hidden connection between Harry, Ron and Hermione's wands that only I knew about".[4]
- Draco's wand (aside from having his mother's wand) is one of the few wands in the film adaptations to have the same design throughout all eight films. But, the prop in the last two films is all-black rather than brown with black handle.
- In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, Harry snaps the Elder Wand rather than repairing his original wand. It is unknown if he kept this wand in its place.
- In Part 2 of the final film, rather than saying "reasonably springy", Garrick Ollivander describes it as "reasonably pliant".

I love Rivendell, I love their philosophy, their products, their logo and most of all their bikes. I'm not sure I can drop over 2 grand on a bike though. I've looked for a production or brand bike that is similar to a Sam Hillborne or Atlantis or Hilson. What I mean is comfy country bike style, decorative lugs, steel, not brown or black, ready to go with fenders and rack. gears. Drop bars or moustache handlebars. So anyone know of anything?
Raleigh Clubman & Jamis Aurora are best I've been able to find and they don't seem close. Anyone with deeper knowledge on this topic willing to help this poor man find a cheap version of Rivendell?

Four Georgia commitments were invited to play in All-American games. Two played in the Offense-Defense All-American game in Ft. Lauderdale and two played in the East Meets West All-American game in Orlando. UGASports.com caught up with each one to see what they thought of their performance.Antwane Greenlee and Aron White played in the Offense-Defense All-American game down in Fort Lauderdale on January 4.Greenlee started for the East at left tackle and White started for the West at tight end.Here is what they had to say about the event and their performance.Greenlee: "I think I played pretty good at the Offense-Defense All-American Bowl," said Greenlee. "I went up against some very good defensive ends (Cliff Matthews and Carlos Dunlap) during practice and they made me better. I think the ends I went up against in practice were better than the guys I went up against in the game.""I really improved my pass blocking down there. I think I learned a lot and just got better. I was very happy to be selected to play in the game and I felt I had a very good week. In practice, I got a lot better and in the game, I think I played very well. I had one pancake block and the East OL's gave the quarterbacks all day to pass. I am definitely happy with the way I played."White: "I felt special to be playing at a game with those kind of players involved. Usually in high school, all of were like the man, but out there, we were all just another guy. It made me want to go in the weight room more and it really showed me how tough college is going to be. It was tough, but I definitely felt I belonged out there.""It was tough at first in practice because I had been playing basketball and away from football for a while. But, after a day or so, I think I really came on and played real well. In the game, I had 4 receptions for 31-yards and I was happy with my performance.""I also met some people and made some new friends, so I was happy about that. I met Greenlee and I got to spend a little time with him before we play at Georgia together, so that was great too. Overall, it was a lot of fun, a great experience, and I got a feel for how it will be on the next level." ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

Wreaths will be placed on the graves of more than 800 veterans at noon Saturday in Rome, Lee and Westernville.
At the same time, thousands of wreaths will be placed on veterans' graves at Arlington National Cemetery and at cemeteries across the country as part of National Wreaths Across America Day.
The local ceremonies are open to the public and will take place at Rome Cemetery, 1500 Jervis Ave. in Rome; Evergreen Cemetery on Route 26 in Lee; and Westernville Presbyterian Cemetery on Stokes-Westernville Road in Westernville.
Family members or friends of deceased veterans are encouraged to take a wreath for placement on their veterans' graves. The ceremonies were organized by the local chapter of the Military Officers Association of America (MOAA), the Lee Center American Legion, Western American Legion Ladies Auxiliary and the Rome Cemetery Association, with help from the national Wreaths Across America organization.
The wreaths were purchased by businesses, organizations and individuals. A portion of the proceeds from the purchase of wreaths will go to the local MOAA chapter, which funds local Junior ROTC groups and other activities, and to Rome Cemetery.
Among the local veterans who will be remembered Saturday:
* Army Private Joseph Cervo of Rome was a paratrooper with the 101st Airborne in World War II. His plane was shot down by Germans, and he died in a POW camp. He is buried in Rome Cemetery.
* Frank Donai of Lee was drafted into the Army Air Corps during WWII. Captured in the Philippines, he joined 70,000 other American and Filipino POWs in the 120-mile Bataan Death March in April 1942. When he was liberated in September 1945, he weighed only 86 pounds. He returned to this area and worked at Rome Cable, retiring in 1981. He died May 27, 2012, and is buried in Evergreen Cemetery.
* Carl Carman was born in Rome. He proudly served in the Air Force as a jet aircraft mechanic from December 1952 to February 1962, including during the Korean War. He died in May 2011 and is buried in Westernville Presbyterian Cemetery.
