LEWISTON, Idaho —The La Grande boys basketball team lost both of its games this weekend at the Inland Cellular Bengal Shootout in Lewiston, Idaho.
The Tigers fell to Lewiston 47-37 Friday and lost to Moscow 62-36 Saturday.
Against Lewiston, La Grande led 19-16 at halftime but got outscored 12-5 in the third quarter and 19-13 in the fourth.
"We didn't play great," coach Mark Carollo said.
"We had 22 turnovers. We just didn't handle the ball well. They sat back in a zone, and we just haven't had much time to work on playing against the zone.
"We were flat."
Troy Williams had a team-high 10 points to lead La Grande.
Tyson Wicklander added eight, while Jake Powell chipped in six.
Kaleb White, Johnd Bodfish and Brandon Dall scored four.
The Tigers ran into a talented Moscow squad Saturday.
The Bears grabbed a 14-8 lead in the first quarter but outscored La Grande 26-6 in the second quarter to take a 40-14 lead into halftime.
That lead proved too much to overcome and Moscow cruised to victory.
"They jumped on us," Carollo said.
"They played a man-to-man, full-court defense and we came out soft. We need to handle that pressure better."
Williams led the Tigers again with 12 points.
Wicklander and Kurt Boyd both scored four, while Powell and Derek Yohannan added three.
La Grande will travel to face Vale Friday before returning home to host Nyssa Tuesday.

Jelly is not, despite popular opinion, a delicious green desert which is often found hiding in a bowl at various pizza restaurants. Instead, he is a designer and developer that works long hours as part of a team that creates web-based applications for geoscientists and their esteemed and not-so-esteemed peers.
At this point it is important to note that it is quite difficult to have long hours, seeing that all hours are made up of the same amount of minutes, which are made out of the same amount of seconds and so forth. It requires much commitment and concentration to stretch hours, and can usually be avoided by simply not owning a watch.
In any case, it is outside of these long hours that Jelly is able to chase his true passion, which is undoubtedly film. Or design... or cartooning. Or animation. In which case it would mean that he has a number of passions and the previous list is not necessarily in a particular order.
Besides having written and directed one film, he spends most of his waking hours tending to an online comic that goes by the name of Jelly's World. This comic is heavily based on his life, which must be exciting enough for people to care, because he enjoys a select following of regular readers.
He also owns a watch, but chooses not to look at it in the hopes that he will find that the long hours are only a very uninviting dream, or a dream of a dream, or both, or neither, or all of the above.

NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown Completes Tw0-Month Study in Eastern Pacific
Ronald H. Brown was part of the Variability of the American Monsoon Systems' (VAMOS) Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study (VOCALS) in the Eastern Pacific off the coasts of Chile and Peru in October and November of 2008. VOCALS is a NOAA, NSF, and NASA-sponsored investigation of the physical mechanisms that keep the ocean in a large region west of the coast so cold. Ronald H. Brown joined five aircraft from the U.S. and Britain and a Peruvian research vessel in a 2-month regional study of oceanography, meteorology, and biology in the region, which is covered by low stratocumulus clouds.
Stratocumulus clouds and ocean eddies play a major role in cooling the ocean but, strange as it may sound, oceanic biology may also play a key role. In a complex chain of processes, plankton emit a biogenic gas that gets into the air and eventually forms aerosol particles that are condensation sites for cloud droplets. This increases the shading efficiency of the clouds and cools the ocean. Ocean eddies not only transfer cold water out from the coast, but also may enhance the nutrients to stimulate plankton growth.
For this study, Ronald H. Brown fielded one of the most comprehensive sets of observing systems ever assembled on a research vessel. The ship was festooned with 6 seatainer laboratories and all manner of instruments including five meteorological radars, a Doppler Lidar, four different ocean profiling systems, and a variety of chemical, aerosol, and biological measurements. Some 40 scientists have participated in two deployment legs. The science party included representatives from three NOAA labs, 13 universities, and three research laboratories in Chile and Peru.
The ship's missions included annual servicing of two climate buoys west of Chile on the 20 S latitude line, investigating the dynamics of eddies shed from the coastal upwelling zone, and finding links between the clouds, aerosols, biogenic gas, and biological activity.
As part of the effort to investigate stratocumulus cloud formation over the large region off the coast of Peru and Chile, scientists from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, IMARPE (Peru), and U. Chile are collaborating to investigate oceanic eddies (or vortices) in this region. We believe that these eddies, which form near the coast in a region where winds bring cold, deep waters to the surface, may play a role in carrying the cold waters offshore. This contributes to lowering the surface ocean temperatures and, therefore, cloud formation. These eddies are quite large, about 100km in diameter, and their surface expression is partly visible from satellite images. From the ship, we then measure water properties with depth, as well as collect water samples, to understand their deeper structure, their nutrient content, and their role as microcosms of higher ocean productivity. The figure below shows a satellite rendering of these eddies with the Brown's cruise track.
One of the factors that controls the amount of sunlight reflected back to space is the brightness of clouds. In marine areas, this is controlled to some degree by a gas that is created by algae. The University of Hawaii group is studying the emission of this dimethyl sulfide gas to the atmosphere, so that its impact can be more accurately described in numerical climate models. The University of Washington, NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, and SIO groups are studying the aerosols; Bigelow Laboratory (Maine) is studying the plankton and their sensitivity to solar radiation. NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory's Physical Sciences Division and Chemical Sciences Division and the University of Miami are using remote sensors to study the atmospheric boundary layer and its interaction with the clouds.
The aerosol studies involve measuring the number and size and chemical composition of particles in the air above the ocean. The chemical analysis can tell us about the origin of the particles; that is, whether they come from the ocean surface, the upper atmosphere, or are brought to the area with winds from coastal regions and pollution sources. These particles have a strong effect on clouds and determine in part where they form, how long they last, and whether they produce rain or not.

While thick, robust watches have their benefits, they often fall prey to door jams and snags on cuffs and jacket pockets alike. More often than not, a truly practical and comfortable watch will also be a thin watch. Among the absolute slimmest — we put the bar at 10mm, including the crystal — the leanness of the stacked parts is a holistic philosophy, depending on everything from the movement to the dial, hands and case. These watches feel wafter thin (because they are) but still look of consequence, and are in fact some of the best dress watches around. For an understated yet stately look that fits under a cuff with heaps of clearance, these six are some of the best.

Wonderful for Baker to have done this. Very unfortunate that it is only a FORMER Israeli official who does do it. And very unfortunate that Israel itself has for so long failed to defend the legality of the settlements out loud. Better late than never, certainly. But I for one wish it had come a lot sooner, and with more confidence in the strength of our case.
I also wish that Baker had released the letter in some effective way so it could be read and known about by people other than a) the readers of the Jewish Press and b) the drone who opens Kerry's mail. Kerry himself will likely never see it. And if the State of Israel doesn't press the point officially, Kerry – who I'm guessing is not a reader of the Jewish Press — will never even confront the ideas, the facts or the legal argument that Baker has expressed.

Comment by Carl Milan — November 11, 2013 @ 7:50 AM
"Palestinians"???? From their own lips:
PLO executive committee member Zahir Muhsein made one such statement to the Dutch newspaper, Trouw, in March 5,1977. He said:
"The Palestinian people does not [sic.] exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct "Palestinian people" to oppose Zionism."
On September 13, 1993, the same day Arafat and Yitzhak Rabin signed the "Declaration of Principles" embodying those ideals for which he would later get the Nobel Prize, he explained his motives on Lebanese TV:
"Since we cannot defeat Israel in war, we do this in stages. We take any and every territory that we can of Palestine, and establish sovereignty there, and we use it as a springboard to take more. When the time comes, we can get the Arab nations to join us for the final blow against Israel."
Comment by Robbie Goldstein — November 11, 2013 @ 8:15 AM
John Lunsmann The Bible explains who owns what in detail, down to tribal territories. G-D gave the Land of Israel to the Jews, and plenty of land to the Yismaelim. They should be satisfied with the lands they were given without trying to take Israel from the Jews.

Whilst paragraph 1 of article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention talks about 'forced transfer', paragraph 6 refers only to 'transfer'. Clearly, Israel is not in breach of paragraph 1, but could it be in breach of paragraph 6?
Comment by Geoffrey Short — November 11, 2013 @ 5:37 PM
Mohammed El Batta Have you actually bothered to read the article by Baker that prompted this conversation? To say that land has been "stolen" implies that it was previously owned legally by another sovereign state. In the case of the West Bank it wasn't. That territory was previously controlled illegally by Jordan.

We are sickened at Mr. Kerry's words, tossed out so carelessly, last week. He is ignorant, uninformed and in power, which is a frightening combination.

Comment by Esther Holden — November 11, 2013 @ 7:45 PM
Geoffrey, would it not be absurd if the Geneva 4 convention had too separate meanings for one word in one article? In any case, transfer even by itself –without "forced"– implies or connotes that the action is compulsory. Transfer is a transitive verb, as you know. Hence it does not refer to a voluntary action but a compulsory one.
Comment by Eliyahu Ben Abraham — November 11, 2013 @ 8:52 PM
Thank you Alan Bakerfor your letter to John Kerry(explaining to him that
Israel won the war in 1967) He is a hater of Israel as Obama is
Comment by Paul Sutton — November 11, 2013 @ 8:59 PM
The idea of Article 49 as a whole is to protect those subject to transfer [and deportation] by outlawing it. Other articles of Geneva 4 are meant to protect the population of an occupied territory.
Deportation is seen in comments by Henri Coursier, an int'l law expert, as basically synonymous with transfer. The purpose of the article was to prevent what had happened to Jews during the Holocaust and WW2, when Jews were transferred or deported from many countries to the death camps in occupied Poland.
In any event, Judea and Samaria are NOT occupied by Israel, as Baker has made clear in other writings, including the Levy Commission Report made to the Israeli govt. Judea, Samaria and the rest of Israel were legally assigned to the Jewish National Home by the San Remo Conference [1920] and the League of Nations [1922]. So Jewish ownership of the land was recognized by international law in those acts.
Comment by Eliyahu Ben Abraham — November 11, 2013 @ 8:59 PM
why have the US citizens, not DEMANDED that Obama fires Kerry immediately, and apologises to Israel for the unfortunate comment by this idiot, Kerry.
Kerry has given Abbas every reason NOT TO NEGOTIATE, but to make more demands on Israel.
As Don Sebold said, Kerry was a traitor and coward in the Vietnam war. He lied and was given hero medals.
The only people who know the truth about this idiot, are those soldiers who he turned his back on. He should have been court marshalled and imprisoned as a coward in a war zone.
And we all thought that Hilary Clinton was bad. She was an angel in comparison.

Dylan McInnis Israel is purely a defensive state. The ONLY reason they would ever use nukes is if someone else used one first or as a last resort (like any country would). Iran is the rouge state. They have constantly threatened Israel over the years while claiming they want peace at the same time, and the US is trying to let them continue to build nuclear weapons?

Dylan McInnis In case you haven't noticed, Israel is a tiny little country surrounded on all sides with either the sea, or enemy Arab countries. They HAVE to be strong and able to repel millions of people who would love to see them dead. They're not a rogue state; they are strong, smart, and always at the ready if they are assaulted in any manner. And then, they will give worse than they got, and that's only right. Kerry, Obama, Biden, and all the rest of those jerks in Congress don't speak for the people of the United States. Because we love Israel for the most part, and are solidly in support of them.

Comment by Peggy Green — November 12, 2013 @ 9:28 AM
I do not hold a high opinion of James Kerry, U.S. Secretary of State, but it gives me great pleasure to see someone standing up to the incessant Israeli bullying of the United States. After listening to it for 45 years, and seeing billions of U.S dollars going to Israel, I am glad someone, anyone, has the huevos to tell Israel where to go. Your unabashed shooting of Palestinian schoolchildren and your taking Palestinian lands must be halted and if someone I loath can do that, then I will give Kerry high marks if he accomplishes such. Israel no longer has the moral high ground and it is especially gratifying to me to see Israel being held accountable not only by the United States but also by a growing number of nations for its "cowboy" behavior.
There is a new generation living and working in the world who have no experience with World War II. Most of us are tired of listening to Israel harp about the Germans and what happened during the war. That is ancient history. You have your country now. Stop whining ("exerting unfair pressure on Israel.") about everything, and start treating Palestinians like humans. Then you might regain at least some of the moral high ground. Until then, I have heard enough. And don't shoot, or otherwise maim, any more Palestinian children.
Now, call me any and all names Jews usually do to those who dissent with Israel's official line. I know who and what I am and the Jew's typical response to call people "haters," "anti-Semites," etc. leaves me nonplussed.
BTW, don't send the Jewish Defense League, or Mossad, or any other organization around to threaten me. I am a former United States Marine, a Vietnam veteran, I am armed to the teeth and I know how to kill. Thank you for reading this little missive. Maybe if Israel starts listening to the rest of the world, real change can come about.

I am not sure if Alan Baker qualifies as one of the Jewish Press' "legal experts" (and I do not claim to be one). However I do believe that while the 49th article of the Geneva Convention was one of the consequences to the Nazi actions, its intent is to prevent occupying armies from using the transfer of citizens into those territories for political or other gains.
There are other examples of this where the UN (and the world media and governments) has done nothing. The first that comes to mind is China's invasion and occupation of Tibet where millions of Chinese have been encouraged and sent to Tibet. I find it an unfortunate irony that Israel does not limit its connections to China. I guess the shekel speaks louder than justice when it comes to Israeli politicians.
Anyway, The Jewish Press and Mr. Baker's attempt to attack Kerry for defending what everyone knows is the US position on settlement activity in the West Bank is typical of those whose failure to understand the depth to which Israel's settlement policy is destroying our nation from within and without.
It is time for The Jewish Press and all the religious extremists who support these positions to understand that there is a Palestine and there exists a Palestinian People. While the Jewish ones were blessed to be part of the creation of the State of Israel, the rest have set out to create a nation of their own. Our (and your) continued efforts to prevent this by sticking your heads in the sand and ignoring reality will only continue to bring destruction to our great nation.
I suggest that you go out and rent The Gatekeepers Film, take a dose of reality and hopefully wake up from your crusade.

obama and kerry have NO credibility at all,their positions are the same as pa's and their positions are equally anti-Israel. They simply have no right to waste Israel's PM time any longer with their nazi propaganda,their LIES and inacceptable pressures which would make any agreement as illegal as the oslo TENTATIVE agreement which is totally INVALID.

Robert Davis : anti-Israel jews like you are just a pawn in the hands of those who want to destroy Israel first and jews thereafter. If you do not understand this it is only because you are not overly clever.

Falafel Frankie...!!!Author: Siddhi Shirsat // Category: Kebabs N Rolls, Middle Eastern Recipes
As i am trying some middle eastern recipes this days, this is my first recipe. I made falafel.Falafel is a fried ball or patty made from spiced chickpeas and/or fave beans. Originally from Egypt, falafel is a popular form of fast food in the Middle East. It is mostly served alone as a snack or in bread called as pita bread along with salads, pickled vegetables and hot sauce, and drizzled with tahini based sauces.I made this falafel and made a frankie from them. Its taste was nice and different.We must try some different cuisine for a change sometimes.
For Falafel:
1 cup chickpeas
2 table spoon lapsi rava(wheat semolina)
1 table spoon besan
3/4 cup chopped corainder leaves
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
1 table spoon sesame seeds
1 tea spoon corainder powder
1/2 tea spoon cumin powder
1/4 tea spoon pepper powder
3-4 green chillis
1 table spoon parsley
4-5 garlic cloves
For Salad:
1 cup chopped cabbage
1/2 cup sliced onion
1 table spoon lemon juice
pepper powder
For Frankie:
1 cup wheat flour
1 cup maida(all purpose flour)
1/2 tea spoon baking powder
1 table spoon butter
1/2 cup Tahini Sauce
Soak the chickpeas in water for min 7-8 hours.Now grind chickpeas along with lapsi rava, besan,green chillis, garlic,corainder,cumin powder,corainder powder,pepper powder,parsleyand baking powder.Add very little water while grinding, it should form a very dry course paste.Keep the mixture covered for 1-2 hours.Then mix raw chopped onions, salt and sesame seeds in it.
To make the dough for frankies mix wheat flour,maida,salt,butter and baking powder and kned it using cold water.Keep the dough for 30 mins.
Make small balls of the prepared chickpeas mixture and flatten them on hand.Deep fry them till golden brown and crisp.Falafel are ready.You can enjoy them wid tahini sauce also.
Now to make frankie, make rotis of the kneded dough.To make salad mix cabbabe and onion and add salt and lemon juice.Keep it for 10 mins and them add pepper powder.
To make the frankie, first apply tahini sauce to the roti, then add fried falafel in line as shown below.Add salad.

SAN DIEGO — This was football in retreat. Norv Turner played it scared. He played to keep his quarterback in one piece. He played not to lose. While he should have been playing fast and loose with house money, he squeezed his coin purse and nickel-and-dimed it.
In other words, he played not to lose his job, played right into the hands of the unemployment office. Football coaches do not carry around white flags.
The good ship Charger has hit the iceberg, the band is playing "Nearer, My God, to Thee," the fat lady is clearing her throat, and instead of being desperate and innovative, Turner can't help but think that the creative way to stop the leak is with a cork.

Of course, Norv denies this. But if you watched Sunday's hideous scrum here between the Chargers and Broncos to the end of regulation time, with the game tied at 13, then you saw the head coach and play caller allow time to expire with one timeout remaining and the ball at his own 46.
So he got himself overtime. So he got himself a 16-13 loss, his sixth in a row, and in the process probably secured his ticket out of town.
"I don't look at it in terms of playing scared," Turner, looking beleaguered, would say, trying to explain the Broncos abused the Chargers' junior college offensive line so badly he feared quarterback Philip Rivers might not live to see Nov. 28.
"Again, if you throw up a ball from the 50 with two seconds left and hoping I understand the feeling of that. I was more concerned about Philip taking a big hit. I think we did the right thing."
I don't. A coach's job is to try to win a game without worrying about his quarterback taking a hit.
"No one threw in the towel," Norv said. "We were sitting there and Philip was having a tough time getting into the end zone, No. 1 (true, in that they scored but one touchdown). No. 2, I don't think we would have protected and gotten it off."
Sure, the Chargers were without three of their starting offensive linemen (as they were in Chicago, when they protected well), and the Broncos are fast and furious up front, but is this not showing a complete lack of confidence in your men? Why didn't he just forfeit?
That is one damning quote. When Al Saunders was asked to compare the Chargers roster with that of the Raiders, he said: "Which would you rather go to war with?" It didn't take Alex Spanos long to fire Al after that.
Rivers is making millions to win games. Football is hard. He's a tough guy. He isn't being paid to cower.
Turner can only dance with the people at the ball, but he wasn't down 20 points and out of it. This could have been for the win. They got the ball at their own 25 with 1:33 in regulation and two timeouts and they left the field with one remaining.
I don't know why anyone would play for overtime. What was there to keep Rivers from getting hit in OT? Norv has problems with clock management, perhaps more than any coach in the game, but this had nothing to do with that. This had to do with playing not to lose, and while you may get by with it for a while — Marty Schottenheimer was the master at it — sooner or later it's going to catch up with you.
Sunday, he lost a game to Tim Tebow, and the game plan was to treat the Anointed One as if the field was a lake and he could walk across it. The defense played scared; too, afraid to get after Tebow, as though fearing he would fling bolts of lightning at them.
They blew a 10-0 lead to a guy who can't throw unless he has 10 seconds to release the ball, and at times it seemed like he did. Tim's first completion came with 3:55 left in the first half. Old Chargers teams would have had him writing an obit.
Defending his coach, Rivers said: "Again, like I said last week, he didn't miss the throws; he didn't miss the tackles this season."
On his offensive line, he added: "I don't even think that was close to being one of the deciding factors in the outcome was those guys up front."
Coach sure made it sound like it.
Meanwhile, they wasted an outstanding effort by tailback Ryan Mathews, who rushed for a career-high 137 yards on 22 carries. And yet, in the overtime, after Mathews put them down near field goal range at the Denver 32, he mysteriously was relieved in favor of Mike Tolbert, who lost 4 yards trying to go wide. It might have been just enough for Nick Novak to barely miss what would have been a game-winning field goal.
"I'm calling a play based on personnel on the field," Turner said. "He came out and I don't know why he came out."
If the head coach calling plays doesn't know, who does? Maybe they didn't want Mathews to get hurt.

Glee Spoilers: Which Characters Hook Up in "Bash"?
Okay, so Glee Season 5, Episode 15: "Bash" will definitely have some tough moments in it. But it will also have some awesome moments, which we can sum up with one word: Samcedes!
According to a rumored synopsis of the episode, Rachel (Lea Michele) gets a night off from her Funny Girl rehearsals to perform in her NYADA "Midwinter Critique." This leads to the return of Whoopi Goldberg as Carmen Tibideaux, who is none to impressed with Rachel's performance. Will Rachel decide to quit NYADA to focus on her career? It's starting to sound that way.
Meanwhile, Sam (Chord Overstreet) and Mercedes (Amber Riley) are both in NYC now, and sure enough, the two ended up hooking up. All together now: Yippee! But Mercedes is not as eager as Sam is to start a relationship, since she is worried about how it might affect her image in the music industry.
Also, Kurt's (Chris Colfer) will be affected by a violent altercation he witnesses, although it helps him make an important discovery about himself. Burt Hummel (Mike O'Malley) will be returning for this storyline, and we can never get enough of Burt on Glee.
What do you think of the rumored synopsis? And are you hoping that Sam and Mercedes start dating?

- Abstract
- An investigation of the micromachining of trenches in lithium niobate (LiNb03) using direct imaged 248 nm KrF excimer laser ablation is presented. Trenches 20 fim wide and 0.5-7.5 fim deep have been produced. These trenches are assessed and are deemed suitable for the machining of integrated electro-optic structures. Based on the characterized ablation conditions, trenches of high quality have been successfully fabricated on an X-cut optical modulator which is potentially important for the realization of efficient broadband optical intensity modulators.

VW inks Malaysia car assembly deal with DRB-Hicom
Tuesday, December 21, 2010
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — German carmaker Volkswagen AG will make its new Passat and Jetta cars in Malaysia by late 2011 in a 1 billion ringgit ($318 million) venture inked Tuesday with local auto group DRB-Hicom Berhad as it seeks to expand in Southeast Asia.
DRB Managing Director Mohamad Khamil Jamil said DRB will foot 70 percent of the investment, with the rest from VW mainly to build production infrastructure and for training and quality control at DRB's existing plant in Pekan in central Pahang state.
The VW cars, due to roll out by the fourth quarter of 2011, will be sold in Malaysia and later possibly exported to other Southeast Asian nations, said VW board member Christian Klingler.
"Developing the market potential of the region is of major significance for the VW Group's long-term growth strategy," Klingler said after VW and DRB inked a collaboration and license agreement.
The VW group — which includes brands such as Audi, Skoda and Seat — aims to boost sales and production in Southeast Asia to between 40,000 and 50,000 over the next few years from 14,000 last year, he said while declining to give more details.
Mohamad Khamil said DRB will initially produce some 3,000 VW cars annually before expanding output from the end of 2012.
DRB's Pekan plant — which also assemble vehicles for Mercedes Benz, Suzuki and Mitsubishi — has a production capacity of nearly 100,000 vehicles a year but only a third of that is utilized, he said. DRB will set up a vendor network to increase the proportion of Malaysian-made parts in VW cars to 40 percent in the long run, he said.
The deal came after VW scrapped alliance talks with national carmaker Proton earlier this year — the second time that talks had collapsed between the two. No reasons were given but the government's insistence on maintaining control over Proton has made it difficult for the carmaker to seal any meaningful partnership.
Wolfsburg-based Volkswagen made its first foray into Southeast Asia last year after setting up assembly operations in Indonesia to produce the Touran minivans.
Klingler said Southeast Asia's market of more than 500 million people has huge growth potential for the VW group. He said the group has picked Malaysia over Thailand as it is the largest passenger car market in the region whereas Thailand is a hub for pickup vehicles.
However, he didn't rule out the possibility of setting up assembly operations in other Southeast Asian countries.
Volkswagen shares were up 0.1 percent in Frankfurt at euros 126.40 ($166.19).

Marathon Runner Named Army's Male Athlete of Year
January 31, 2007
By Tim Hipps
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (Army News Service, Jan. 31, 2007) - Staff Sgt. Barry Brill, an endurance runner and bicyclist, has been selected as the Army's 2006 Male Athlete of the Year by the Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation Command.
Brill, 35, averaged 70 to 80 miles per week on training runs last year while serving as a military policeman in Ansbach, Germany. As a member of the U.S. Army-Europe team, he finished 120th among 16,676 competitors with a time of 59 minutes, 44 seconds in the 22nd running of the Army Ten-Miler at the Pentagon on Oct. 8.
Two weeks later, Brill was 68th among 20,934 finishers in the 31st running of the Marine Corps Marathon with a time of 2 hours, 52 minutes, 54 seconds - the fastest of his 10 marathons.
"The Marine Corps Marathon is so famous because Al Gore and Oprah Winfrey ran it, but the spectators realize that it originally was designed for the Armed Forces competition, the race within the race," Brill said. "So if you're wearing one of the Armed Forces' jerseys, the people go crazy. They've got banners on the side of the road saying: 'Go Army!' and 'Go Navy!' It's just crazy the amount of people who are cheering you on and pushing you forward."
Brill then returned to Germany and finished third in the U.S. Air Force Europe Regional Cross Country Championships with a 37:03 clocking for 10 kilometers. In December, he finished fifth among 650 runners in the Ciebengebirgs Marathon, a 26.2-mile cross-country run, with a time of 2:58:55.
Brill posted top-40 finishes at the ING Brussels Marathon in Belgium (34th of 882 runners), the Regensburg Marathon (36th of 1,074) in Germany and the Tirol Speed Marathon (19th of 550) in Innsbruck, Austria. He also fared well in four half marathons, including third-place performances in Ansbach, Wassertrudigen and the Tour de Hesselberg Half Marathon.
Brill is the lone American ever to finish as high as third place in the Ansbach City Half Marathon, the town's premier running event. He also volunteered to coach first-time road racers in a 20-week training program to prepare for the Volkswagen Prague Marathon, scheduled for May 13. Soldiers struggling with physical fitness and weight-control issues often seek Brill for advice.
"I went a little overboard and did quite a bit in 2006," he said. "I tried to do a lot of cross-training on the bike because you can't run yourself in the ground every day. It just beats your body apart, so it's a good mix to get on the bike two or three times a week."
Although he's a member of running organization Lauftreff Ansback Nord and biking club RSG Ansbach, Brill proudly displays his U.S. Army affiliation at every event. His goal is to favorably represent the local military community and the Army in races throughout Europe.
"I make it a point when I register to sign up for the Army as a whole," Brill explained. "My long-term goal is to get accepted into the World Class Athlete Program."
In the meantime, Brill has been selected to compete for the All-Army team in the 2007 Armed Forces Cross Country Championships, scheduled for Feb. 10 in Boulder, Colo.
Assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment at U.S. Army Garrison Ansbach, Brill serves as a physical security inspector and force protection specialist for the Provost Marshal Office. As the garrison's noncommissioned officer in charge of physical security, he oversees the garrison installation access control program and a 270-employee contract security guard force that ensures the safety of more than 8,500 residents.

The Kardashians
Who is Kim Kardashian's New BFF, Blac Chyna? 5 Things to Know
Since starting her relationship with Kanye West, Kim Kardashian has gone through a lot of changes. She's refreshed her wardrobe, her career, and even her social circle, adding a bevy of new beauties to her already extensive group of friends. One such pal is Blac Chyna. She and the Kardashian sisters seem to be attached at the hips these days, whether getting in a workout together or having a cozy dinner with their significant others in L.A.
So what do we know about Kim's new pal?
1. She's also engaged to a rapper.
Blac Chyna met Young Money rapper Tyga back in October 2011 and started dating him shortly thereafter. The former stripper even stars as the love interest in the video for his mega-hit "Rack City." The two announced their engagement the following year.
2. She's a mom, just like Kim!
Tyga and Chyna welcomed their first child, son King Cairo Stevenson, on October 16, 2012. The couple both got tattoos to commemorate their son's birth.
3. She's a Calabasas resident.
After baby King was born, Tyga and Chyna moved into a luxe mansion, purchased for a cool $6.5 million, in the Kardashians' stomping grounds.
4. She's Amanda Bynes' style mentor.
Remember when Amanda Bynes bought all of those wigs and pierced her face? That was all an attempt to look as lovely as Chyna, according to the troubled starlet.
5. She's a social media star.
Between her 1.3 million Instagram followers, her 180,000 Twitter devotees, and the droves who turn out to check out the bootylicious pics she posts on her website, Chyna, much like her pal Kim, knows a thing or two about the art of a well-placed selfie.

Big 12 football: Can Minnesota beat Texas Tech?
Texas Tech was not a good football team the second half of the 2012 season. The Red Raiders were 6-1 after a triple-overtime victory at TCU but stumbled to a 7-5 finish.
Tech was routed by Kansas State and OSU, lost at home to Texas and lost in overtime to Baylor in Arlington. Tech's only victory was an overtime home win against Kansas.
Then Tech's coach, Tommy Tuberville, fled for an inferior job, Cincinnati, and the Raiders are left with a makeshift coaching staff for the Houston bowl against Minnesota.
High hopes fly with incoming coach Kliff Kingsbury, but Tech in this game will be guided by interim coach Chris Thomsen, who has been in Lubbock only since 2012 and appears headed to Cal-Berkeley to join Sonny Dykes' staff.
Hard to see how Tech's players can summon any commitment to this game from coaches. Minnesota is a 13 1/2-point underdog, but let's go with the Golden Gophers in the upset.

By Wendy Townley
Today he's an award-winning news producer. An Emmy nominee. But it was the fast-paced, ever-changing schedule of a TV sports reporter that Ken Archer first longed for, focused on and worked toward during his UNO days in the early 1990s.
He came to UNO by way of two states and four military stops. A New York native who spent his teens in Florida, Archer had joined the U.S. Air Force after graduating from high school in 1981. His first and fourth military assignments landed him at Offutt Air Force Base near Bellevue, Neb. After taking a few classes on base through UNO, Archer decided to leave the Air Force in 1992 and pursue a broadcasting degree.
"I am a sports fanatic," Archer says exuberantly via phone from his office in Florida. "It dawned on me how cool it could be to get paid to talk about sports. And it really just went from there."
In 1993, at age 32, Archer enrolled in on-campus classes at UNO. A year later he pursued an internship opportunity with Cox Communications in Omaha. Archer first worked in master control and later assisted with productions on Cox TV. He generated on-air graphics and ran studio cameras.
His on-camera break came when Cox TV produced "Sportsline with Gary Java," a sports show that profiled area athletes. While taking classes at UNO, Archer joined Java's program as a reporter.
"That fueled my love for sports and reporting," he says.
That love continued when Archer worked on "The Locker Room," another Cox TV program that covered the Omaha Royals, UNO Maverick football and surrounding high school teams.
If Archer's schedule wasn't busy enough—keep in mind he was married with two children at the time—he also interned at KMTV, Omaha's CBS affiliate, while working at Cox Communications and studying at UNO. Archer worked three days a week as a videographer learning the techniques behind video production and TV news.
Michael Hilt, a professor and graduate program chair in the School of Communication at UNO, recalls Archer's all-out passion for TV news.
"He demonstrated this by working hard and asking questions," Hilt recalls. "Ken was receptive to the suggestions and he always strived to improve his work. One thing that I noticed is that since he accepted instruction, his work would improve tremendously from assignment to assignment. That's when I first thought he would have the ability to succeed in television."
A church fire in rural Nebraska helped advance Archer's career. To cover the story KMTV sent only Archer, who shot his own video and self-recorded his on-camera reporting.
"I started one-man-banding it at that point," says Archer, who earned his BS from UNO in 1996.
He joined KMTV's morning show as a reporter and continued shooting stories for other reporters when not in front of the camera. Archer credits his time spent with then-reporter Tom Elser as one of his best on-the-job experiences to learn the tricks of the broadcasting trade. Elser returns the compliment.
"Ken is one of those people who will take any assignment and give it his all," Elser says. "It doesn't matter if it's the lead story or a kicker, he will deliver a product that is worth watching. And best of all, he'll do it with a smile on his face."
After spending about a year reporting and shooting news and sports at KMTV, Archer realized his longing to return to the world of athletics on a full-time basis. He polished his resume and sent videotapes of his work to TV stations across Nebraska. In 1996 KHAS, the NBC affiliate in Hastings, responded to Archer's inquiry and offered him a job as weekend sports anchor.
While certainly a promotion, the new opportunity wouldn't be without sacrifice for Archer and his family. "I went from making pretty good money in the Omaha market to taking nearly a $10,000 pay cut in Hastings," Archer says.
Archer worked Wednesdays through Sundays covering "Husker football everything," he says. On Friday nights he hosted "The Fourth Quarter," a show about local sports. On football Saturdays he drove to Lincoln to cover the Huskers.
Archer was in his element broadcasting sports. After four years covering sports from Hastings, though, the job started to wear on Archer. While he enjoyed the challenge his career presented, there was little room for growth. The sports director was a constant at the station and didn't have any plans of leaving.
An urge to grow paired with a low tolerance of Nebraska winters sent Archer looking elsewhere for employment in early 2000. Archer's mother, who lived in Florida, phoned her son about a TV sports position open in The Villages, a retirement community that spans three counties and includes 100,000 homes.
Archer faxed his resume to the Villages News Network and received a phone call 10 minutes later. After interviewing, he got the job. When he informed friends and colleagues in Hastings and Omaha of his new job, some were skeptical whether the pace covering senior citizens would maintain Archer's interest.
That was six years ago.
"The opportunity to work in Florida was intriguing because the job focused on trying to develop and draw in the senior sports crowd. It was certainly a challenge."
Archer worked two years as the station's assistant sports director before being promoted to sports director in 2002. He developed a 30-minute daily sports highlight show covering the area's 11 high schools.
Two years had passed when Archer was named news anchor in 2004. Archer returned to life behind the camera in 2005 when he was moved to assistant news director and, later, to executive producer for VNN, the job he holds today.
One of Archer's prouder moments while working in Florida came earlier this year. Archer and his news team received three Telly awards for "Faces of Freedom: America's Airborne Heroes," two 30-minute programs that profiled 14 Florida veterans who served in some aviation capacity during military conflicts from World War II to Iraq.
The Telly is the premier award honoring outstanding local, regional and cable TV commercials and programs. "Faces of Freedom" was among 12,000 entries from all 50 states and five continents. Only 2,000 Tellys were awarded this spring. "Faces of Freedom" also received an Aurora Award, an independent film and video competition, and was nominated for an Emmy.
Today, as a married father of four, Archer said he is pleased with the path his career has taken. And he's happy to have placed roots back in Florida.
"I didn't want to become that person who picked up and moved every two years," Archer explains. "That's when I decided this was an organization [Villages News Network] where I knew I'd have longevity. I was able to come here and work and be creative."
Archer adds with a chuckle: "Getting out of the Nebraska snow was a bonus, though."

Will Xavier Henry be a one and done?
Kansas freshman Xavier Henry can't escape questions about the likelihood of him jumping to the NBA after this season. The former Putnam City standout and The Oklahoman's Super Five Player of the Year for 2009 prefers to stay in the present. "I just try to stay focused on my main goal of coming here and helping my team win the national championship," Henry said. "I don't think too far ahead. "If I'm ready, I'm ready. And if I'm not, I'm not." According to several early NBA mock drafts, Henry is ready. The projections: →NBA-draft.com: No. 9 to Philadelphia →NBAdraft.net: No. 11 to Minnesota →Insidehoops.com: No. 12 to Chicago →Mynbadraft.com: No. 15 to Minnesota →Draftexpress.com: No. 15 to Houston →NBAdraftguru: No. 16 to Chicago

Author, poet and civil rights activist Dr. Maya Angelou died Wednesday at the age of 86. As one of the literary world's most influential figures, Angelou's legacy has been enriched by a life replete with terrible struggles overcome by amazing triumphs.
Angelou was born Marguerite Ann Johnson on April 4, 1928 in St. Louis, Mo. Her older brother gave her the nickname Maya, which stuck with her throughout her life. When her parents split up, Maya and her brother were sent to live in Arkansas with a grandparent.
When reunited in St. Loius with their mother, Angelou was assaulted by her mother's boyfriend when she was just eight years old. The man was charged but only jailed for a day, and was later found dead. This series of events traumatized Angelou but also led to her creative awakening.
The siblings were sent back to Arkansas, which like much of the Deep South, embraced Jim Crow laws. Still, Angelou was introduced there to the literature and theater that became the hallmarks of her career. After moving to California to live with her mother again, Angelou won a dance scholarship to San Francisco's California Labor School.
She dropped out of the program, however, instead making history by becoming the first African-American female to operate one of San Francisco's cable cars. She returned to high school, graduated and then gave birth to her only child, Guy Johnson. After a series of odd jobs, Angelou eventually found her footing as a dancer alongside Alvin Ailey. Their stage act never took off, but she continued in the field.
In 1951, she married Tosh Angelos, working in the Bay Area as a calypso act after their 1954 divorce. During this time, she took on the stage name Maya Angelou. Angelou discovered civil rights activism in the late 1950s, after moving to New York and joining the Harlem Writers Guild.
In 1960, a meeting with Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. inspired her to support the Southern Leadership Christian Conference (SCLC). In 1961, she acted onstage in a production of Jean Genet's The Blacks with James Earl Jones and Cicely Tyson, among others. That same year, she met South African activist Vusumzi Make and moved with her son and Make to Egypt.

SULLIVAN COUNTY- The Sullivan Youth Football League is hosting its second annual flag football league for all Sullivan County Kindergarteners, first and second- graders.
Sign-ups will be Feb. 15 from 12 p.m.- 2 p.m. and Feb. 24 from 5 p.m. – 7 p.m. at the Central Park Gym (the site of the former Central Elementary School.) Cost is $60 per child and $40 for each additional sibling. All participating children will receive a NFL reversible jersey that they get to keep at the end of the season.
Sullivan Youth Football League President Kevin Arnett said organizers hope to build on the enthusiasm from a successful inaugural league last year. He notes that 89 kids signed up then, and they expect to have approximately 120 kids sign up this spring.
"The community has really bought in to what we are doing for our youth, and that was proven with our Super Bowl event last year," Arnett said. "This isn't just for Sullivan kids; we are going to ensure that we target all the elementary schools in Sullivan County. We want everyone to experience this fun event!"
Flag football is not only safe for children, but with more flexible play guidelines, it also allows opportunities for young boys and girls to participate in ways not possible in the more aggressive type of the sport. Arnett explained that some parents are concerned about concussions in tackle football. Because flag football is safer, those parents are more likely to let their child play flag football instead.
"In tackle football, there is a weight limit to who can carry the football. In flag football there is no weight limit, so kids can enjoy playing quarterback or running back that are normally over the weight limit in tackle football," he said.
Important Dates:
Sign Up: Feb. 15 and Feb. 24
Draft: March 8
First Practice: March 12
First Game: April 4
Playoffs: May 30
Super Bowl: May 31
All games will be played at the Sullivan County Sports Complex.
For more information, contact Kevin Arnett 812-887-8551 or Adam Porter at 812-249-6735.

CARMEL, Ind. (WISH) – Colts owner Jim Irsay's arrest Sunday night on four felony counts of possession of a controlled substance follows a documented history of prescription drug abuse stretching back nearly two decades.
Problems may have begun surfacing decades earlier, however, when Irsay was in college at Southern Methodist University in Texas.
Court records obtained by our sister station WISH-TV show Irsay was arrested in Dallas County, Texas on a misdemeanor driving while intoxicated charge on January 16, 1979. According to court records, he was later found "not guilty" of the offense by a judge.
But, his battle with substance abuse wasn't over.
In 2002, Irsay admitted that he had become addicted to painkillers. Several reports show Irsay was first prescribed Vicodin in the 1990s following several different surgeries on a chronic back injury sustained during his football playing days at SMU.
According to reports filed by the Associated Press at the time, Irsay sought substance abuse treatment at least three times, beginning in 1998. AP stories at the time also cited multiple sources who alleged that Irsay overdosed on prescription drugs in both 2000 and 2001.
VIDEO | New video and details: Irsay booked into jail
Then, in 2002, reports surfaced that Irsay was the target of a federal Drug Enforcement Administration probe into prescription drug fraud, along with two Indianapolis-area doctors who were under investigation for prescribing excessive amounts of painkillers.
No charges were ever filed against Irsay in connection with that case.
But, in response to those reports, Irsay did admit for the first time that he had developed a dependence on prescription painkillers.
"After several years of orthopedic operations and procedures, accompanied by long bouts of chronic pain, I became dependent on prescription pain medications," Irsay wrote in a 2002 statement to the media. "This summer I sought professional help at a nationally recognized facility located outside Indiana. I have successfully dealt with my dependence and my chronic pain issues."
Addiction specialists say that promise is often hard for addicts to keep.
"By and large, that's the trend, to where someone needs repeated exposure to education, repeated exposure to therapy, repeated exposure to treatment in order for them to "get it," and begin to put together, proactively, a lifestyle of recovery," said Fairbanks Addiction Treatment Center Assistant Director of Adult Services Tobyn Linton.
Still, Irsay seemed to have embraced that recovery.
"It's a lifelong thing," he told USA Today in 2007. "It's something you deal with every day for the rest of your life."
Linton says that admission is key to recovery.
"It is a lifelong process. People refer to recovery as a journey, and not as a destination. It's those little days you put together, one day at a time, and then looking back and reflecting now and then," he said.
Linton said prescription drug abuse has grown quickly in Indiana, outpacing national rates, and has reached across all gender, race and income barriers.
"Addiction knows no bounds. It's non-discriminatory. It can affect a seemingly well put together person. And, it can affect people who don't appear on the outside to have their life together. That's a real myth we try to work against," he said.
Irsay spoke publicly about his use of drugs and alcohol as a college student and young adult. And, in a 2010 interview with USA Today, he said he had been "clean and sober" since 2002, in part because of his father's addition to alcohol. Robert Irsay, who moved the Colts to Indianapolis from Baltimore in 1984, died in 1997.
"The alcohol turned him into Jekyll-and-Hyde, and he was a bad Jekyll-and-Hyde drinker," Irsay said in the story, which was printed shortly before the Colts played in their last Super Bowl. "But, there was a part of him that said 'I don't want that to happen to my son."
More recent public affirmations of sobriety were made on Irsay's most popular communication medium: Twitter.
"I don't drink…haven't in over 15 years," he wrote in a tweet last October.
Then, in December, he addressed the issue again.
"Sorry to ruin your theories…but I don't drink…at all," he tweeted. "I'm allergic to alcohol…I break out in handcuffs if I drink!!!"
Still, if Irsay relapsed into additional prescription drug abuse, experts say it wouldn't be a unique situation.
"I hesitate to say that there is any sort of usual situation, because we've heard of cases where someone will put together 6 years or 15 or 20 years [in sobriety], and for whatever reason, those triggering reasons and external cues come together at the wrong time and wrong place and trigger a relapse," Linton said. "As a treatment provider, it doesn't matter how you get to the door. You just have to be willing to accept the help."
Linton-Stockton High School football coach Brian Oliver served as the guest speaker at the Linton-Stockton Chamber of Commerce meeting on Tuesday.
Oliver, an LSHS grad, spoke on football, leadership, faith, family and the small-town experience.
"We're having a very successful season," he said, noting the LSHS football team is working toward winning 15 games.
"I'm proud of what they [players] bring to the town and to the school," he said, adding that several people come from out of town to experience Miner football.
Experiencing the community support during football season has also been great, he said.
Oliver also teaches industrial technology at the L-S Middle School.
"I am a teacher first before I am a coach," he explained.
Oliver is also a deacon at the Linton First Christian Church.
"I am high on the Christian faith," he said, noting his faith keeps him grounded.
Oliver also encouraged everyone to attend Friday's game.
"Our goal is 'win 15′ and these guys are very determined … I honestly believe we will win Friday night," he added, noting the team is practicing great.
The Miners will take on Eastern Hancock in Charlottesville Friday. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. For those unable to make the trip there will be a free online live stream of the game at lintonminers.com.
In other business, L-S Chamber Executive Director Cheryl Hamilton noted that the chamber's annual Christmas party is at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 3 at the Old Bank in downtown Linton.
School spirit hit the Bloomfield School in the way of a pep session on Tuesday afternoon.
Bloomfield Athletic Director Ron McBride explained that the pep session was twofold in that it honored the varsity volleyball team and cross country runner, Ali Workman.
"We [honored] our girls who advanced to regional [in volleyball] and Ali [was] honored for advancing to state finals in cross country," McBride said.
Bloomfield varsity volleyball will take on the Indiana Deaf School in the regional match at 7 p.m. at Bloomfield tonight. Ali Workman, a sophomore, will compete at the cross country state competition Saturday in Terre Haute.
"It's a big honor for our school to have first of all one of our runners advance to the state finals. It's a big honor for her as an individual to represent our school," McBride explained. "It's also great for the volleyball team to win the sectional and advance to the regional. To have them both advancing at this time of year is really good."
Workman is the first girl in Bloomfield cross country history to make it to the state competition, explained Bloomfield cross country coach Caleb Dunkerly.
"For her to be the first girl in Bloomfield history to make it to the state in cross country just shows how much time she's put in… and to do it as a sophomore is remarkable," Dunkerly said, noting Workman's dedication to the sport is phenomenal and as a freshman she qualified for semi-state.
"She doesn't want to take an off-day and she wants to prepare mentally," he added.
Workman also recently set a new personal record.
"This past Saturday at the semi-state at Brown County, Ali set a new personal record at 19:23. She surpassed her [former] personal record by 27 seconds," he added.
Workman has spent this week preparing for Saturday's competition with speed workouts and long distance runs. On Wednesday, she will go to Terre Haute to experience a practice run at the state course.
"She has huge potential for junior and senior year," Dunkerly also said, noting the potential for a scholarship looks hopeful.
Ashlea Dunkerly, Bloomfield varsity volleyball coach, is looking forward to tonight's regional competition and said her team is ready to go.
"They are definitely ready. We had a really good practice yesterday and we played really well at the sectional. They have a really good chance to win the regional," she explained.
The team has improved its winning record and has a current season standing of 18-11.
"Last year we had 13 wins on the season, this is the first winning record we've had in five or six years," she added. "I am so proud of them this season. They have worked so hard. We've laughed, cried, and persevered. I couldn't be more proud to be their coach."
With two seniors, one junior, two freshman, and six sophomores the team has a very bright future, she said.
"I think our sophomore class is really strong. They play basketball, softball, and tennis. They work really hard, but the team in general is a really special group… They're such a close group of girls and that really helps," she added.
The winner of tonight's regional game will compete at the semi-state on Saturday.
Linton Youth All-Star Football invites you to its upcoming Fazoli's fundraiser and silent auction.
The fundraising event is set for 4 to 8 p.m. Nov. 2 at the east shelter house at Humphreys Park in Linton. Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for children 12 and under.
Robbie Boldrey, event co-organizer, encouraged the public to come out and support all-star football.

Menu includes the following: Spaghetti/fettuccine, salad, breadsticks, dessert, and drink.
Several silent auction items have been donated from various local and regional businesses.
"The auction itself is going to be very nice. With Christmas closely approaching, I would be thinking gifts and stocking stuffers," Boldrey added.

Camden has been running since the sixth grade and was inspired to do so by her older sister.
"My older sister did it and I started running with her," she explained.
As for her upcoming regional run, she is really looking forward to it.
"I'm real excited and I can't wait to go and compete against all of the other schools," Camden added.
She's also been practicing harder for the competition.
"We've been doing more speed practices so I can try to get faster in my race," she said.
She was honored as most valuable runner in eighth grade and her best time this season has been

The Colorado Rockies are shipping utility infielder Jamey Carroll to the Cleveland Indians for a player to be named, freeing up money to pursue Tadahito Iguchi.
Carroll turns 34 in February and his two (m) million dollar plus salary were deemed expendable even though the Rockies lost starting second baseman Kaz Matsui to the Houston Astros.
Carroll is a fan favorite for his all-out play. Last season he backed up the starters at second, third and shortstop while his steady defense helped the Rockies reach their first World Series.
Carroll told The Denver Post that he was comfortable in Denver and didn't seek a trade.
