I'm Giving My Steam Account To One Of My Friends
Yes, I have TF2 stuff. No, you can't have them. It's staying with my account since I'll still use it once in a while.
I almost never get on Steam anymore, so I figure I might as well give it to a friend who hasn't experienced the glory of Steam (although he has played TF2 before). I might still get online sometimes, maybe once a week or so, so if you are wanting to talk to me you can ask if it's me playing. If you don't want to have some random noob in your friends list then feel free to un-add me.

If you bothered to actually read the article, you'd see that it doesn't mention if the kids died or not, and it also says that there has been some kind of macabre social trend of people attacking schools and children in China, mostly by people who're at the end of their ropes (just lost jobs, divorced, etc).

Jay Heritage Center
Striving for Freedom: The Jay Family and Slavery
School Programs
...to Chief Justice Jay...may be attributed, more to any other man, the abolition of negro bondage in [New York] state... --Horace Greeley, founder of the New York Herald Tribune
In 1790, New York State had the largest number of slaves north of the Mason-Dixon line.
Although John Jay and various members of the Jay family were slave owners, he and his sons were leaders in the fight to abolish slavery. Among their anti-slavery efforts, John Jay was a founder of the New York Manumission Society and served as its president, as did his elder son, Peter Augustus Jay. Both men encountered great resistance to their efforts to extend civil rights to African Americans.
Excerpts from original 1785 newspaper, the American Mercury that reports on a news item in another paper, The Hudson Gazette, detailing the formation of the Manumission Society JHC Archives
The names of several Africans owned by the Jays at their home in Rye are known, and some of their manumission papers have been located. Their stories, along with the Jay family's involvement in slavery and its abolition, make the Jay Heritage Center an ideal location for consideration of these issues.
Program I – Classroom Visit
Document Based Questions
A Jay Heritage Center educator will visit your classroom for a discussion of slavery in the North and resistance to it. The anti-slavery efforts of John Jay will be revealed as students examine primary source documents.
Fee: $3.00 per student
Program length: 1 class session
Program II – Museum Theater
Your class will come to the Jay Heritage Center where your students will participate in an interactive theater presentation performed by a professional cast followed by a discussion period. Set in 1813, Striving for Freedom examines the lives of two sisters, Clarinda and Mary, who were enslaved and owned by the Jay family. The program includes tours of the site-orientation exhibit, the 1838 Peter Augustus Jay House, and grounds. Teachers receive pre- and post-visit materials.
Fee: $5.00 per student
Program length: ½ day
Both programs are appropriate for grades 4 and up and meet the following learning standards for Social Studies: 1.1, 1.2., 1.3, and 1.4
We can accommodate groups as large as 130 students.
How to schedule a program –
(914) 698-9275 or email@example.com
Performances are typically scheduled on Fridays.
Lunch space is available.
When signing up for Program II, teachers are encouraged to
schedule Program I as a pre-visit at a reduced rate.
Fee: $7.00 per student
Please note: A $50 non-refundable deposit is required for groups scheduling Program II.
The deposit must be received 2 weeks before your visit and
will be deducted from amount billed.
A reduced rate may be available for qualified students.
The Jay Heritage Center thanks Con Edison
for their support of these programs
and New York State Council on the Arts for its support of the programs' development and original production.
Read what people are saying about these exciting programs:
"…many times students are told slavery was in the South. Though this may be true, it was in many other places as well. This is our history, our families' history."
- 7th grade student
"I loved having the privilege to come such a special place…Thank you for helping to preserve some of our nation's history."
- 7th grade student
"I feel very strongly that the Striving for Freedom program had a major impact in the lives of our students and renewed their sense of purpose and value in education. I recommend this program for students and adults of all ages." – 11th grade teacher

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 15, 2011) - African Gold Group, Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AGG), ("AGG" or the "Company") is pleased to report the analytical results for six near surface (oxide), reverse circulation (RC), step-out drill holes, from the Company's Kobada, Mali gold project.

Kobada Review
On July 14, 2011 AGG announced the results of a positive NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment (the "PEA" or the "Study") that evaluates the potential of an open pit, bulk mining model, utilizing a gravity recovery process plant, at the Company's Kobada (Mali) gold project. The PEA incorporates and includes drill data up to the end of December, 2010. There is no drill data from the 2011 campaign included in the PEA. More specifically, the PEA does not incorporate drill data for the northern extension holes that hold potential to extend Zone 1 up to 2 kilometers north of the Zone 1 deposit, in addition, the PEA does not incorporate the 2011 southern holes that hold potential to extend Zone 1 up to 1.55 kilometers south of the Zone 1 deposit, nor does the Study include any potential from the newly discovered Foroko North deposit, the newly discovered Termite Zone or the recently announced Gosso discovery zone the latter three discovery zones being separate and distinct structures from Zone 1.
Project Economics - Base Case
The PEA estimates an after-tax Net Present Value (NPV) of US$216.9 million from commencement of construction and an after-tax Internal Rate Of Return (IRR) of 90.57% using a base case of US$1,100 per ounce of gold and a discount rate of 5%.
The Kobada project base case is for processing 20,000 tonnes per day for a total of 7,000,000 tonnes per year in a gravity process plant that is projected to recover 87.9% of the gold contained in 41,750,000 tonnes of lateritic material assaying 0.64 g/t Au, for average annual production of 126,600 ounces of gold for the first five years of operation. The average annual operating cost is calculated to be US$8.27/t for the first five years of operation with a CAPEX of US$122,500,000. The project produces gold at the direct cost of US$470.90 per ounce. The Study demonstrates that the Kobada gold project is economically optimized by adopting bulk mining versus selective mining. The direct implications of bulk mining are demonstrated in a substantial increase in tonnage and recoverable gold but with an associated decrease in the average gold grade. Please visit www.africangoldgroup.com to review the entire content of AGG's July 13, 2011 press release announcing the results of the positive Preliminary Economic Assessment.
The results contained in today's release serve to reinforce AGG's growing perception of its ability to extend the 43-101 Zone 1 resource further north along strike. On April 07, 2011, AGG announced the analytical results of the first set of 27 northern step-out drill holes from the 2011 campaign. The 27 northern step out holes were grouped in four distinct regions, north of the Zone 1 deposit. The group of holes closest to the Zone 1 deposit, located on 1100S have already been in-filled and now form part of the NI 43-101 resource that was published in conjunction with the July 13, 2011 dissemination of AGG's PEA. The most northerly grouping of holes, located on Section 400N, are situated 1.5 kilometers north of the current NI 43-101, Zone 1 resource.

"We are most encouraged by the drill results contained in today's release. We have no doubt that our Zone 1, 43-101 resource will ultimately extend north and include the potential tonnes and ounces of Au intercepted within the area contained by these step-out holes. Of even greater significance is the blue sky potential that is being amply demonstrated by the mineralized intercepts encountered as much as 1.4 km north of the drill holes that are the subject of today's release on Section 1000S. We remain open along strike, in both directions and at depth. We have encountered new discovery zones at Foroko North, Gosso and the Termite Zone. We have drill tested less than three per cent of our 218 sq km footprint and are confident that Kobada will continue to grow," states AGG President, Michael A. Nikiforuk
Pending Drill Results
At present, the following Kobada step-out holes, forming part of AGG's ongoing 2011 exploration campaign, remain pending: Zone 1 southern extension step-out holes; Foroko North strike extension step-out holes and step-out holes east of Zone 1 to test a perceived parallel structure. The analytical results for the outstanding step-out drill holes will be published upon receipt of the results from the laboratory.
Sampling - QA/QC Program
RC cuttings are recovered at the bottom outlet of the RC rig cyclone into 50-kg capacity poly-weave bags to recover the cuttings from each 1 meter of drill penetration. Each one meter sample weighs an average of approximately 19 to 23 kg. Each sample is passed through a 3-tier Jones Riffler (1 to 8 split), the samples are riffled twice to obtain from 3 to 5 kg of cuttings which are put in a numbered sample bag. Each bag is sealed and picked up on site by ALS Chemex Laboratories for delivery to its Burkina Faso facilities. The remaining 14 to 18 kg of cuttings (field rejects) are stored in camp under tarps to protect the bags against the elements.
Original samples are analyzed using Leachwell on 2 kg of pulp. Leachwell is a bottle roll cyanidation procedure with the addition of a catalyst to speed up gold dissolution. A QA/QC program is in place and includes: blank (1 in 20 samples), duplicates (1 in 20), standards (1 in 20), external lab checks (1 in 30) and two different analytical procedures checks (1 in 100).

African Gold Group, Inc., based in Toronto, Canada, is engaged in the identification, acquisition and exploration of prospective gold projects that are situated along significant gold trends within West Africa. To date, the Company controls a total of eleven gold concessions that are consolidated in four distinct stand alone exploration projects. Three of these projects are located in Ghana and one project (Kobada) is located in Mali, West Africa.
Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The preliminary assessment includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary assessment will be realized.

2007 Alabama Crimson Tide Basketball Preview
For the Alabama Crimson Tide (20- 12 overall, 7- 9 SEC West) to get back to the NCAA tourney, they'll need star guard Ronald Steele to stay healthy. The Tide tied for third in the SEC West and were then eliminated by Massachusetts 89- 87 in the first round of the NIT. Coach Mark Gottfried (181- 108 in nine years with Alabama, 249- 132 overall in 12 years) has some solid vets on which he can rely to help the team get back to the NCAA which they missed for the first time in five years last season.
Alabama was definitely not on its game in 2006- 2007 as they finished sixth in scoring (74.0 PPG) and ninth in scoring defense (69.5 PPG). The team was last in assists, notching 13.1 per game and fourth in both rebounding margin (plus-4.0) and turnovers (13.8 TPG).
Although F/C Jermareo Davidson (14.0 PPG, 8.2 RPG, 2.3 BPG) is gone, the Tide still possesses some potent players in the frontcourt. Junior center Richard Hendrix (14.6 PPG, 8.7 RPG, 60.2 FG%), who possesses tough to defend against moves when around the basket, has developed a fine 16-foot jumper. He's also an accomplished rebounder. Sophomore forward Demetrius Jemison (2.9 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 44.7 FG%) and freshman Justin Knox look to be the other upfront starters. Jemison was tough but inconsistent in his first season (and in college basketball betting), while Knox is an athletic rebounder. Junior forward Alonzo Gee (12.6 PPG, 5.3 RPG, 46.4 FG%) will start for sure if he can give the team more even play.
Senior Ronald Steele (8.6 PPG, 4.0 APG, 38.4 FG%) has speed and dexterity when healthy. At the point, he's one of the best in the nation. Senior shooting guard Mykal Riley (12.6 PPG, 4.6 RPG, 44.8 FG%) is an accurate shooter who carries a 37.0% success rate from downtown. There's depth in the backcourt, and that's good news for the college basketball point spreads.
'Bama has been to the tournament 19 times. This club could be a major force in the league and a NCAA contender and must be considered for NCAA basketball picks. Health is the key for this team. The Crimson Tide has experience, skill and talent.

- Scoring formulas schema theory mathematical expression response type
In this report, we describe the development of general, accurate, cost-effective, and immediately usable automatic analysis routines that dichotomously score rational expressions of arbitrary complexity. This development has led to the new Mathematical Expression (ME) response type, which may appear operationally in the new GRE Mathematical Reasoning test scheduled for deployment in 1999. We detail work confirming the accuracy of these scoring routines and then describe extensions to the existing capability based on schema theory. We show how schema theory can be applied not only to the scoring of more complex test responses but also to the automatic generation of items and intelligent tutoring.

CICADAPOCOLYPSE: Billions of Red-Eyed Cicadas to Swarm Tri-State Area
Posted By Yuka Yoneda On April 10, 2013 @ 12:15 pm In Bronx,Brooklyn,Long Island,Manhattan,New Jersey,Queens,Staten Island,The Bronx | 1 Comment

If you're looking for yet another sign that the end is near, the media has been buzzing (pun-intended) with reports that billions of cicadas will be burrowing out of their underground holes [2] soon and swarming the East Coast of the United States. Okay, so "Cicadapocolypse" – what many entomologists [3] are calling the insects' mass exodus from the ground – may be a bit sensational considering that the bugs would hardly hurt a fly, but the event likely will be painful to our ears. Some experts predict that the noise the cicadas emit could even be comparable to the sound of a New York City train [4].
Photo from Shutterstock [5]
The gigantic batch of cicadas – called Brood II [6] by entomologists – is a specific type that hatches every 17 years on the East Coast. The mass hatching will take place from North Carolina to Connecticut, and is estimated to happen between mid-April to late May or when ground temperatures reach approximately 64 degrees (these bugs are an exacting bunch).
Brood II cicadas will have dark-colored bodies and bright red eyes [7]and while they aren't at all harmful to humans, their sheer numbers may be a nuisance for those that don't like seeing those empty brown cicada shells everywhere.
The swarms will also be emit a sound that will not be music to most people's ears, so be prepared to deal with a bit of extra noise pollution for about 4-6 weeks [4]. But we won't be hearing from the Brood IIs for a while after that, as the next hatching will take place in 2030.

Packers Hold Graham Harrell In (Somewhat) High Regard
The Green Bay Packers apparently think highly of practice squad quarterback [intlink id="1102″ type="category"]Graham Harrell[/intlink].
They don't think highly enough of him to keep him on the active roster, but they do think highly enough of him to pay him a wad of cash.
The league minimum for practice squad players is $96,900, which is what the Packers are paying everyone on their practice squad… except Harrell. The team rewarded the Texas Tech product with a $220,000 contract after his strong preseason.
That probably softened the blow of getting released a little bit.
It's also a good sign the Packers see Harrell as the heir apparent to [intlink id="84″ type="category"]Matt Flynn[/intlink]. The Packers No. 2 quarterback is playing out the final season of his rookie deal and is expected to seek a starting job in the offseason.
Harrell's salary is also a good sign the Packers would move him to the active roster if another team tried to claim him off their practice squad.
Monty McMahon is one of the founders of Total Packers. He is probably the most famous graduate of UW-Oshkosh next to Jim Gantner.
Bob McGinn of the Journal Sentinel tweeted the other night that Tom Brady might be the greatest of all time….made me want to throw up coming from him.
Rodgers has never had a really good offensive line like Brady has and last I checked the Patriots haven't won shit since they stopped video taping the opposing team. Coincidence?
Rodgers in his short career..IS the greatest of all time. No one has a more complete set of tools while being so mechanically sound in all of it. Right now I can accept arguments about Brady or maybe Manning being the greatest ever, but only injuries will prevent ARodge from universally being recognized as the most complete…and greatest quarterback to ever play the game.
Really in my eyes he already is….now he's just stretching his lead like Secretariat in the Belmont.
Can't remember who the guy was on ESPN radio the other night, but he had a great rant about a statute of limitations on bragging rights….pointing out that it had been over 1300 days since the Patriots won a playoff game…LOVED IT. So sick of hearing about Brady/Bellichek/Patriots.
Very glad Harrell is being kept happy. I believe the interest in Flynn will pick up considerably this season/next off season, and I wonder how long he will be content to be a back up.

I have discovered my fiance is looking at porn, porn of all
Customer Question
I have discovered my fiance is looking at porn, porn of all sorts which i do get. the one thing i don't get is he is also looking at very young girls. Nonudes as they are called. I a deeply disturbed and dont know what to do. I feel sick and cant even look at him. This is not the first time i have discovered this but it seems to be getting worse. I have two granddaughters 4 and 10 months old and worry about him being around them now. Is he a phedophile I dont understand. We have not had an intimate relationship for over a year although i have tried he denies me. I am so confused. We have been together for 10 years.

Hello, I'd like to help you with your question.
Looking at porn is never a good idea in a relationship. It often makes you feel cheated on because your partner is being turned on sexually by an image that is not you, but someone else. Any sexual feelings about another person, even if they are not in person, is demeaning to the relationship and to the other partner. It says that the sex in the relationship is not enough and there needs to be something else or that you are being replaced. And if you have self esteem issues already, seeing your partner view other women is going to make you question yourself even more.
Men are often attracted to porn because it represents an escape from their worries and burdens. It is common to feel stressed but not be aware of how much, making you feel overwhelmed. Escape is appealing. And men are attracted visually to females so the nature of watching porn is appealing.
However, the fact that your fiance is looking at young girls is disturbing. It means that he has crossed a boundary. It is one thing to look at adult women and quite another to look at young girls. It may also be against the law where you are, which
another element to the situation.
If your fiance will not listen to your concerns about his activities and tries to make this your fault, then you may have reason to feel concerned about him and your relationship. His refusal to see this as an issue and to understand that by viewing this type of porn he is hurting someone says that he is only thinking of his own needs and no one else's. Because he is able to block out the fact that what he is doing is wrong, you are right to be concerned for your granddaughters.
You may want to consider a separation from your fiance. Leave the home or ask him to leave if it is your home. Tell him why you are separating from him and ask him to get help. If he is viewing child porn, you may also want to consult with your attorney about your responsibility in case your fiance does get caught for what he is doing. And until this situation is sorted out, you may want to keep your granddaughters away from your fiance until you feel the situation has been addressed to your satisfaction.
You may also want to seek counseling for yourself. This is not an easy situation to deal with and if you have to separate, you are potentially losing a relationship. Plus you have been hurt and betrayed. Dealing with your feelings from this with the support and guidance of a therapist can help you work through this and feel better about what choices you make.
I hope this has helped you,

Dexter Season 8 Spoilers: Will Hannah Come Back?
UPDATE: Hannah is returning on Dexter Season 8, Episode 6, "A Little Reflection," which airs Sunday, August 4. She's also scheduled for the next three episodes after that.
Original story, from June 2013:
TV Line's Michael Ausiello has seen fit to give us some Dexter dish on his Ask Ausiello column today. In addition to some details on how Vince Masuka's character will grow, we have some details on a big, Season 7 cliffhanger: Hannah McKay.
When we last saw her, she'd skipped out on her jail sentence and left a black orchid by Dexter's door. Is she coming back this season? Why?
"Basically, I'm allowed to tease nothing," says the actress behind Hannah, Yvonne Strahovski, but she gives some hints, anyway. "But the question is, how and in what fashion does Hannah come back? And what method does she use to reintroduce herself into Dexter's crazy life? And what motivates her? Is it going to be love or revenge?"
That just made us more anxious!
As for Vince, it sounds like we're going to get a little more of his dark side for the last season. "He gets visited by his past," says actor C.S. Lee, "It's a very interesting premise."
Are you excited for Season 8? Were you hoping Hannah would come back in a big way? Sound off in the comments!

The fire broke out Sunday around 7 p.m. at the Emerald Acres Mobile Home Park, located on the 3700 block of North Cascade.
Investigators are still looking into the cause of the fire. An investigation team arrived at the home around noon Monday and continued working through the day.
Ella Cannedy lived in the home, and her mentally-disabled son visited on the weekends. He was there when the house caught on fire. Neighbors say he came out of the house and started screaming. His mother was lying on the couch, and neighbors called 911. One neighbor recounts, "By the time I got off the phone, it was burning real good inside, started coming up through the trailer." One neighbor tried to get into the house to rescue the trapped woman, but the mobile home was already engulfed in flames, and Ella Cannedy was still inside.
This fire hits close to home for neighbors, who saw the blaze outside their windows, taking the life of someone they knew. "It cost her her life, and that's the sadness of it," says one neighbor.
Firefighters say Cannedy probably died as a result of the fire, but an autopsy is underway to determine the exact cause.

I have had the same problem. My doctor told me to eat foods like Cooked beans and lentils,Pumpkin seeds,Baked potato with skins. Canned asparagusposted 09/08/2007 by pittkat
I am 22 weeks and anemic also and Im taking this liquid iron called FLORADIX. I dont know where you are from but if you have a whole foods they sell it there. If not go to any health store. Its actually made for vegetarians and trust me it works. Plus it taste like orange juice. Very yummyposted 09/25/2007 by linzbecker
I'm also 22 weeks and have been told I'm slightly anemic. While I am not a vegetarian, I am a very picky eater. My doctor said I could either eat more iron rich foods or take over the counter ferrous sulfate. So, I take 1 tablet of 325 mg ferrous sulfate since this was the easiest option for me. I just take it when I take my prenatal pill. But, I was told by my doctor that this was okay, you should definitely speak with your doctor for any ideas or suggestions.posted 09/28/2007 by fairylovergrl
I just had a call from the dr saying i have the same problem and the reccomended me to take ferrous sulfate 325 mg a day. however she said not to take it at teh same time as i take my prenatal. she said you can only absorb so much iron at one time so take prenatal in morning and iron supplement at night or vise versa but don't take them togetherposted 06/12/2008 by cathy13mom
Spinach!!!posted 01/02/2008 by BabyHariki08
my midwife recommended Floradix iron=herb tablets - they're all natural. www.florahealth.com. I started feeling better right away - but i'm nervous because it's possible to get too much iron, I was trying to research it a little - with the prenatal vitamins and 3 iron pills a day - thats almost 300% rda - she only has me taking 2 but it still seems like a lot to me - i dunno - just got them this weekend so I'm still looking into it.posted 10/02/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I am in 31st week.My Hb level is very poor.Now i took Imferon injection once in 3 days.Eventhough i have taken 2 times no more change.What to do next?posted 11/09/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
For those whose digestive systems do not absorb nutrients very well,I would reccommend HIGHER NATURE True Food Easy Iron as it has high absorption easily digested iron plus a full spectrum of food based nutrients. Or Vitamin B-Complex "50" b SOLGAR along with QUEST Vitamin C 1000mg (Timed Release)posted 03/09/2011 by Universal Momma
I have this same problem. Odd though, my dr could not tell me how many mg to take of iron. So I just bought a box of 50 mg and take it once a day. But have been eating a lot of beans and spinach. When you eat iron rich foods, you are supposed to have a bit of vitamin C to help absorb the iron from what I understand. I can't stand the thought of eating red meat so here's what I eat mostly: Whole wheat tortilla, black beans rinsed and stir-fried with a small amount of canned tomatoes, shredded chdr cheese, and a small amount of salsa. After heating the beans and tomatoes, near the end, add a small amount of fresh spinach and just barely heat it up. Very good and full of iron.posted 01/16/2011 by MarmeeOfmany

Water got in while snorkeling. Canon Camera now uuseless
Went snorkeling - first time using case with my canon powershot SD1200 IS Digital Elph. Estimate price as it is not new approximately $150. Purposely used small older camera. Owner of a local dive shop checked to make sure I had the case securely closed prior to use. Unfortunately when I went to use it and it was only under two or three feet of water, the case was filled with water which distroyed my camera, card, and now have useless case that did not meet requirement of how the case was advertised.

Works but...
The bag works as advertised. But, getting good underwater pictures is not easy - the lower light conditions may require a longer exposure and it may be difficult to hold the camera steady, especially in the ocean. So pictures may end up blurry.I bought this AquaPac to keep a GPS Heart Rate monitor watch dry while I swim. I needed the clear portion so I can read the watch dial. For this purpose it works great. I put the strap around my neck and the pack on my back while I swim.

Worked very well!
These bags are watertight! I put a brand new Canon Powershot in them (holding my breath) and snorkeled for hours and hours with no moisture. I got several great shots through the bag, but I'll admit it is tricky to take a picture while being moved around by waves. It does take some practice. I loaned the bag to a friend of mine the next week for her Caribbean trip and she also loved it!

Observer Staff Writer
Former Eastern Oregon University football coach Rob Cushman has a once-in-a-lifetime challenge facing him in his new job.
As the first head football coach for Feather River College in Quincy, Calif., Cushman gets to start a program from the ground up.
Cushman was appointed earlier this month as the two-year schools football coach, ending his job search that began in November when he resigned as Easterns head coach.
So far, his priorities in his new post have been threefold: recruit players, hire assistant coaches and buy equipment.
He started with nothing, not even a shoulder pad.
Its kind of interesting filling a program when Ive only been on campus one day, Cushman said. Its a chance to build something from the ground up.
Getting help has been Cushmans biggest task.
Hiring a coaching staff has been our first priority, he said. Were trying to fill those with people who fit the college and do some teaching as well.
As for recruiting, the school had advertised for about nine months that it was adding football, and athletic department officials gave Cushman a folder full of questionnaires.
Ive been recruiting since the day I got the job, he said.
Cushman coached at Eastern for 15 years. He was the head baseball coach and football defensive coordinator for the first 10, then took the head football coaching job in 1997. In five years, his teams went 18-31.
Its a great opportunity for me. I came from that area when I came here 15 years ago, he said.
Cushman earned his masters degree from California State-Chico in 1982. He coached high school football for three years in California and was an assistant at Cal State-Chico and Butte College in Oroville, Calif.
Quincy is 70 miles northwest of Reno, Nev., in the Sierra Mountains.
Feather River competes in the Northern California Alliance, a group of 36 teams divided into six leagues. The school will compete against the College of Marin, Contra Costa College, Mendocino College and Solan College during its first season.
J.C. football in California is fairly strong, Cushman said. It will take time to build a program. The administration is really understanding of that.

her dryer making noise downstairs. She went downstairs and noticed there was someone trying to wiggle the basement door open.
The homeowner said she went upstairs, looked out her back sliding door and observed the suspect walking up the steps on the back deck. She described the suspect as possibly a white male wearing a black hoodie over his head, dark ski mask, gloves, about 5'8"

This is an oil painting made in 1931 by Grace Cossington Smith (1892-1984). It is a still life of a branch of poinsettia bracts in a vase, and measures 73.7 cm x 59.7 cm. The orange-red bracts, which curve from the left to the top right of the image, are set against a background of green-grey drapery.
Educational value
This resource is useful because it:
- is a work of art by Grace Cossington Smith - Cossington Smith is regarded as one of Australia's most significant early modern artists and one of the first artists in Australia to respond to European Post-Impressionism; as a young artist, she was exposed to modern art partly through association with other young experimental artists Roy de Maistre (1894-1968) and Roland Wakelin (1887-1971); one of the new ideas that appealed to these Sydney-based artists was 'synchromism', painting based on using pure colour to create form as opposed to using conventional highlights and shadows; Cossington Smith once said, 'My aim has always been to express form in colour - colour vibrant in light'
- demonstrates how Cossington Smith utilised colour theory in her paintings - in 'Poinsettias', she has applied the basic principle of balancing warm colours (the orange-red of the bracts) with cool greens and neutrals (the green-grey of the drapery); Cossington Smith worked in small strokes or blocks of colour and once these were laid onto the surface of the painting they were rarely reworked; all of these elements help to strengthen the overall 'colour energy' of the image
- is an excellent example of how modernist artists of the early 20th century used devices to flatten pictorial space - in 'Poinsettias' this is evident in the use of short brushstrokes which, when examined closely, become a field of patterned movement independent from the 'subject' of the painting
- illustrates Cossington Smith's particular interest in curvilinear rhythms - during the period in which Cossington Smith produced this painting, she also made a number of paintings of the Sydney Harbour Bridge under construction; the curving action of the composition in 'Poinsettias', which starts with the vase form and curves through to the upper right of the image, is an echo of the dynamic curves that Cossington Smith captured in her depictions of the Bridge
- is an expression of the artist's appreciation of the beauty in things around her - Cossington Smith once said, 'Art is the expression of whatever things are lovely, at the same time expressing things unseen - the golden thread which runs through time'; Daniel Thomas, Emeritus Director of the Art Gallery of South Australia, has argued that the key to Cossington Smith's art is colour and spirituality, and that 'all her paintings are devotional'
- is a highly personal statement - the branch of poinsettias in this painting was from the artist's own garden in Turramurra, Sydney, which served as a constant source of inspiration, providing her with numerous subjects
- demonstrates, in its vibrant style, the influence of European modern art, particularly the art of Vincent van Gogh (1853-90), on Cossington Smith's work - Cossington Smith studied with the painter and teacher Anthony Dattilo Rubbo (1870-1955), who introduced her to the work of van Gogh, Paul Cézanne (1839-1906), Paul Gauguin (1848-1903), Henri Matisse (1869-1954) and others; this had an immediate effect on Cossington Smith and fellow students de Maistre and Wakelin, who all adopted a new way of painting that involved using pure (as opposed to over-mixed) colours, stippled or patterned brush work and a blocky arrangement of forms.

ECSF Game 2 Live Blog: Rangers vs. Capitals
Looks like Brian Boyle is back in the Rangers' lineup tonight for Game 2 after missing three games with a concussion. Based on the pregame warmups, he'll be right back with linemates Ruslan Fedotenko and Brandon Prust.
From the Capitals' warmups, Dale Hunter is switching Alex Ovechkin to right wing as he juggles his lines. But he did not demote Alex Semin to the fourth line, as was the case in the Capitals' practice yesterday.
Henrik Lundqvist (5-3, 1.62 goals-against) opposes Braden Holtby (4-4, 2.13 GAA).
Rangers lines/d-pairs in warmups:
Carl Hagelin-Brad Richards-Marian Gaborik
Chris Kreider-Derek Stepan-Ryan Callahan
Ruslan Fedotenko-Brian Boyle-Brandon Prust
Artem Anisimov-John Mitchell-Mike Rupp
Ryan McDonagh-Dan Girardi
Marc Staal-Anton Stralman
Michael Del Zotto-Stu Bickel
Capitals lines/d-pairs in warmups:
Marcus Johansson-Brooks Laich-Alex Ovechkin
Jason Chimera-Nicklas Backstrom-Alex Semin
Matt Hendricks-Jay Beagle-Troy Brouwer
Mike Knuble-Keith Aucoin-Joel Ward
Karl Alzner-John Carlson
Roman Hamrlik-Mike Green
Jeff Schultz-Dennis Wideman
The Rangers won Saturday's Game 1, 3-1, as the teams combined for just 32 shots.
So both teams entered Game 2 wanting more: The Rangers looking for more opportunities and the Capitals knowing they needed to play with more intensity.
"It's a fine line," Rangers captain Ryan Callahan said of trying to take more shots on net while getting more traffic to the crease. "You don't want to take chances against this team and leave yourself with a counter because they have some skilled guys who can advantage of it."
The Rangers were also looking to take what has been, historically for the franchise, a rock-solid series lead.
Prior to this series, the Rangers have won the first two games of a best-of-seven series 12 times and won 10 of those series. Of course, the last time it happened, the Rangers blew a 3-1 series lead to the Capitals in the first round of the 2009 playoffs.
"We don't want to be satisfied with just one at home," Lundqvist said. "We want to get two."
Keys to Game 2
1. More shots: It's going to be a tight-checking series between two defensive-minded squads but the Rangers still need to find a way to get more shots on Capitals goalie Braden Holtby after getting just 14 shots on net in Game 1.
2. Stay disciplined: The Rangers showed they were the superior team at even strength over the course of Game 1 so they need to limit their penalties. The Capitals had four power plays in Game 1, including a two-man advantage.
3. More of the same: The Rangers played an impressive defensive game on Saturday and held the dangerous Alex Ovechkin to one shot. The Rangers must continue their strong checking in both zones, particularly by frustrating Ovechkin by taking away his skating room by getting their sticks on the puck when he's trying to carry it up ice.

As I have tried to explain earlier detuning the CA from 20k plus rpm to 18k rpm means virtually a new engine, didn't I mentioned new castings? This is all apart from the all important reliability factor which lets say wasn't a strong point of the CA. and what about what the article calls the enforced used of the Cosworth on the new teams, is this going to be refuted by the FIA? Is it going to be used as proof in the French court by N TECH and in the complain at the EU by the Yugoslav would be team. Reply Report abuse 0 agree 1 disagree
