Johnson City, Tenn. -- The East Tennessee State University Athletic Department today announced the addition of Central Michigan and North Carolina State to future football schedules.
The Bucs will play North Carolina State on September 7, 2002 at Carter Finley Stadium in Raleigh. ETSU will play Central Michigan on September 13, 2003 in Mt. Pleasant, Mich.
"We are excited to take on the challenge of competing against both North Carolina State and Central Michigan," said ETSU Athletic Director Frank Pergolizzi. "These two games complete the bulk of the East Tennessee State football schedule through the year 2003. Long range scheduling that included games versus I-A opponents is a key component of the long-term strategic plan for football approved last fall."

Marion Cotillard
Paris, France
"I'll never approach a part in the same way again. Piaf taught me so much. In terms of my work, I think I'll enjoy it even more than before, because now I know that characters truly exist in their own right. I'll have a way to bring them even more intensely to life."
- Marion Cotillard, on how La vie en rose has shaped her career.
In her native France, Marion Cotillard is seen as a highly-respected Oscar-winning actress who successfully embodied the iconic French singer Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose. With more visible roles in English-language films like A Good Year, Public Enemies and Nine, North American audiences are slowly but surely starting to come around to the talent and beauty that exists within Cotillard's creative aura.
While she's already captured Hollywood's acting equivalent of the Holy Grail, Marion Cotillard hasn't quite yet conquered pop culture as a name and face with instant worldwide recognition. Right now, she's a very accomplished actress whose skills are polished, but whose popularity still has room to grow. Recent roles in the blockbuster Inception with Leonardo DiCaprio, Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris, Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises and the thriller Contagion alongside Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Winslet have certainly gone to cementing her image in popular culture.
While she's already captured Hollywood's acting equivalent of the Holy Grail, Marion Cotillard hasn't quite yet conquered pop culture as a name and face with instant worldwide recognition. Right now, she's a very accomplished actress whose skills are polished, but whose popularity still has room to grow. Recent roles in the blockbuster Inception with Leonardo DiCaprio, Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris, Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises and the thriller Contagion alongside Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Winslet have certainly gone to cementing her image in popular culture.
Beneath Marion Cotillard's outer layer of sexiness and talent is a budding environmentalist and artistic keener. As an official spokeswoman for Greenpeace, she has promoted the publication's views on climate change and has also allowed the environmental juggernaut to use her apartment as a testing facility. Where art is concerned, one of Marion Cotillard's favorite extracurricular activities include visiting museums. Given that her romantic relationship with fellow French actor Guillaume Canet has been known to focus on low-key and quiet times, we could imagine spending an afternoon with Cotillard at the Musee d'Orsay before heading to a Parisian cafe for some chocolate croissants.
With a name that's now considered Academy Award-worthy, Marion Cotillard has seen her roster of substantial male co-stars grow from Russell Crowe (A Good Year) and Johnny Depp (Public Enemies) to Daniel Day-Lewis (Nine), Leonardo DiCaprio (Inception) and Matt Damon (Contagion) in only a short time. As she already has Hollywood's top awards under her belt, Cotillard doesn't need to do much to convince the industry and its audiences that she remains worthy of both their precious time and money. Since Hollywood is lacking an obvious French beauty with first-rate acting skills, Cotillard's acclaimed talents and flattering appearance have positioned her to pursue that crown and claim it all for herself.
Marion Cotillard BiographyMarion Cotillard spent her childhood in Orléans, France, where her acting and artistically-inclined parents continually inspired her to become a performer. Though Cotillard's actor mother, Niseema Theillaud, and actor-director father, Jean-Claude Cotillard, were often filming in exotic countries or traveling with their performance group, they would come back from destinations like Asia and South America with inspirational mementos for their daughter. Eager to get a taste of the acting lifestyle herself, Cotillard began studying acting at the Conservatoire d'Art Dramatique in her hometown, and got her first chance to do so as an actress in a play directed by her father.
marion cotillard in taxiAt the age of 16, Marion Cotillard left Orléans for Paris with the idea of chasing the acting dream in the City of Lights. Following a number of small roles in TV series like Highlander (1993) and films such as My Sex Life... or How I Got Into an Argument (1996), Cotillard earned a fine reception for her portrayal of a racer's girlfriend in the Luc Besson-penned 1998 effort, Taxi. The box office smash led to greater exposure for the actress in Taxi's two subsequent sequels, and in 1999, she would enjoy an early career highlight by costarring with French screen legend Jeanne Moreau in War in the Highlands. Two years later, in a challenging role in Pretty Things that required her to sing and act as twins, Cotillard earned stellar reviews and her first acting nomination at the French Oscar equivalents, The César Awards.
marion cotillard in la vie en rose and public enemiesMarion Cotillard's increased star power in Europe caught the attention of America's most popular eccentric filmmaker, Tim Burton, who promptly cast her as the wife of Billy Crudup in his 2003 effort, Big Fish. The film's positive reception led to more substantial roles for Cotillard both Stateside and back home, as she alternated between films like A Very Long Engagement -- which won her a César Award opposite French darling Audrey Tautou -- and A Good Year, a romance from Ridley Scott that paired her up with Russell Crowe.
In 2007, Marion Cotillard was the surprise casting choice to play the late, beloved French songstress Edith Piaf. Olivier Dahan, the film's director, had made the choice without auditioning the actress and had based it strongly on the actress's resemblance to the singer. The producers of the film felt that disaster was imminent and slashed the budget, but the ensuing film, La Vie en Rose, proved all the naysayers wrong, and then some. For her part, Cotillard won over even the strictest French film critics before taking home a César Award, a BAFTA Award and, finally, an Academy Award for her breathtaking performance. By winning the Hollywood statuette, she was the first woman to win an Oscar and a César for one role as well as the only actress to win top Oscar honors for a French-language film. Following her win, Cotillard waited until 2009 for her next film, which would be Public Enemies, where she played the moll to Johnny Depp's high-powered gangster, John Dillinger.

Demeyeres multilayer products (frying pans/skillets, conic sauté pans, simmering pans and woks) use 7-Ply, a unique technology consisting of 7 alloys including stainless steel and an aluminium core. It is spread over the bottom and the side of the pans. This technology guarantees that the heat is spread evenly over the whole surface of the pan up to the rim. Hence, complying with the specific requirements of frying, making sauces, stir-frying in a wok, slow-cooking, simmering etc.
Details of the 7-ply
- stainless steel at the inside of the pot (1)
- A thin coat of pure aluminium for perfect adhesion (2)
- A layer of aluminium alloy for heat conduction (3)
- A thin coat of pure aluminium for perfect adhesion (4)
- A combination of three special alloys (TriplInduc) with magnetic properties for optimal use in combination with induction cooking (5-6-7)
The total thickness of the 7 layers is designed with the cooking process in mind and the necessity to control or regulate the temperature:
- 2,3 mm for woks: 230°C at the bottom - 140°C at the sides
- 3 to 3,3 mm for conic sauté pans, simmering pans and certain frying pans (skillets)
- 4,8 mm for professional Proline frying pans (skillets).

Baltimore County News
by Police Chief James Johnson
Statistics for the first half of 2012 show crime in each of the County's 10 precincts trending downward.
Data provided by our Crime Analysis Unit show that Part I crimes – the most serious crimes – decreased by 8.6 percent during the first six months of this year compared to the previous five-year average for the same time period. Total crime – Part I and Part II – declined by 5.4 percent from the previous five-year average.
Before we get into the details, a word about how we look at crime statistics in Baltimore County: In 2011, we began comparing current crime data against the previous five-year average rather than against the previous year. In any given year, a host of factors – weather is one of the most significant – may cause crime to spike up or down. Such short-term comparisons often do not provide a true picture of local crime. I believe we should focus on trends, on whether crime is rising or falling over the longer term.
In the first six months of 2012, Part I violent crime decreased by 348 cases from the previous five-year average for the same period. There were 1,942 violent crimes in the first six months of the year, down from the previous five-year average of 2,290.
Part I property crime decreased by 898 cases; there were 11,268 Part I property crimes from January through June, compared to 12,166 for the previous five-year average. That is a 7.4 percent decrease from the previous five-year average.
Rape, which increased by nine cases, from 71 to 80, is the only category of Part I violent crime that exceeded the previous five-year average during the first six months of the year. The other types of violent crime all dropped:
- Homicide decreased by five cases, from 15 to 10
- Robbery decreased by 88 cases, from 726 to 638
- Aggravated assault decreased by 264 cases, from 1,478 to 1,214
All categories of Part I property crime compared favorably to the previous five-year average:
- Burglary decreased by 70 cases, from 2,033 to 1,963.
- Theft decreased by 356 cases, from 8,823 to 8,467.
- Motor vehicle theft decreased by 446 cases, from 1,172 to 726.
- Arson decreased by 26 cases, from 138 to 112.
Total Part I crime – violent crime and property crime – for the first six months of 2012 decreased by 1,246 cases, from 14,456 to 13,210, when compared to the previous five-year average.
Part II crime also declined during the first half of the year. Part II crime includes simple assaults, sex offenses, drug violations, vandalism and many other crimes. During the first half of 2012, Part II crime declined by 509 cases, from 17,862 to 17,353.
In addition, our clearance rates for Part I crime continue to exceed the national average as determined by the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting System. This means we are solving crimes and getting criminals off the street.
I am always cautiously optimistic when providing positive crime news such as this.
Optimistic, because we know we truly are making Baltimore County safer when data over a five-year period shows declines in almost every category of crime. Cautious, because human nature cannot be controlled.
We have an extraordinary team of personnel committed to public safety. We are focused on crime prevention and reduction, using technology and partnerships to continue the great crime reductions we have experienced over the last several years.
As always, we will look closely at the next set of crime statistics to see if the downward trend holds. The never-ending work of determining the best strategies to keep Baltimore County safe continues.

text: Processes & Procedures As an ANSI Accredited Standards Developer (SDO), SHRM offers the following references for standards development processes and procedures: Informal Complaint Any participant with a concern regarding the Taskforce process is encouraged to first discuss their concern with the Taskforce leadership. Formal Complaint After exhausting the appeals options internal to the Taskforce, any individuals and entities not satisfied that their grievance has been properly addressed may file a written complaint with SHRM. Written Complaint Persons who have been or may be affected by any Taskforce action or inaction shall have the right to appeal such action or inaction. The appellant shall file a written complaint with the Secretariat within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of notification of any action, or at any time with respect to inaction. The complaint shall state the nature of the objection, the procedures or the sections of the standards that are at issue, the action or inaction at issue, and the specific remedial action(s) that would satisfy the appellant's concerns. Previous efforts to resolve the objections and the outcome of each shall be noted. Response Within thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt of the complaint, the Secretariat shall respond in writing to the appellant, specifically addressing each allegation in the complaint to the extent possible. The Secretariat shall attempt to resolve, informally, the complaint of the appellant. Hearing and Panel If the Secretariat is unable to informally resolve the complaint, it shall appoint an appeals panel to hold a hearing on a date agreeable to all participants, with at least fifteen (15) working days notice. The appeals panel shall consist of three individuals who have not been directly involved in the dispute and who shall not be materially affected by any decision made in the dispute. At least two (2) members of the panel shall be acceptable to the appellant and at least two (2) shall be acceptable to the Secretariat. Conduct of Hearing The Appellant has the responsibility of demonstrating improper action or inaction, the adverse effects there from, and the efficacy of the requested remedial action. The Secretariat has the responsibility to demonstrate that the Taskforce took all actions in question in compliance with these procedures. The hearing shall be conducted in an informal manner and subject to such reasonable rules as the appeals panel sets forth. The appeals panel and the parties shall not be bound by any formal rules of evidence. Representatives of other interested parties shall be allowed to observe the hearing but shall not be permitted to directly participate unless requested to participate by the appeals panel. Decision The appeals panel shall render its decision in writing within thirty (30) calendar days of the hearing, based upon a preponderance of the evidence, stating its findings of fact and conclusions, with reasons therefore and citing the evidence. The Secretariat shall notify the Appellant and the Taskforce of the decision of the appeals panel, which shall be binding and final on all concerned. Further appeal may be made directly to ANSI, if the standard involved is only to be ANSI-approved. If the appellant gives notice to SHRM that such a further appeal to ANSI is intended, all relevant materials, including the decision made by the appeals panel set forth above, shall be submitted to ANSI by SHRM. See paragraph 2.8.2 of the ANSI Essential Requirements. American National Standard Appeals Process Chart Appeals Process Procedures for Developing American National Standards (PDANS) Standards Quick Reference Guide (Coming soon) Consensus One of the key principles in the standards development process is establishing consensus. Consensus is the method used by the SHRM Taskforces to reach resolution of issues, unless specifically otherwise provided for in these procedures. Consensus is established when substantial agreement has been reached among those participating in the issue at hand. Substantial agreement means more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimous agreement. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. Under some circumstances, consensus is achieved when the minority no longer wishes to articulate its objection. In other cases, the opinions of the minority should be recorded with the report of the substantial agreement, or consensus, of the majority. When there are questions or disputes regarding consensus, leaders or participants should ask the objecting participant(s) to state the rationale for the objection and provide an opportunity for full discussion aimed at achieving full understanding and consideration of the objection.

First Meeting (2/26/13) - Oregon 3, Portland 1: Four Oregon pitchers combined for 15 strikeouts to lead the No. 14 Ducks to a 3-1 non-conference win over Portland at PK Park.
Christian Jones, making his first start since May 28, 2011 because of an elbow injury that forced him to miss all of last season, allowed just two hits in three innings while striking out five. Jeff Gold, who didn't allow a base runner, fanned seven in four innings to pick up his first win of the season.
Freshman Garrett Cleavinger went an inning-plus striking out two before giving way to All-American closer Jimmie Sherfy with a runner on first and no outs in the ninth. Sherfy picked up his third save of the season, striking out one.
Oregon's 15 strikeouts were the most by the Ducks since UO pitchers fanned 17 in a 12-inning win at Hawaii on Feb. 18, 2012.
Scott Heineman, Brett Thomas and Ryon Healy all drove in one run each for the Ducks in the win. Heineman, who didn't have an official at bat, also scored two runs. He was hit by pitches twice, walked once and had a sacrifice fly.
The Ducks jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning when Healy picked up a RBI single to left field scoring Heineman who had a one-out walk to start the inning.
Oregon added to the lead with runs on sacrifice flies in both the third and fifth innings. Thomas extended the lead to 2-0 in the third with a sacrifice fly to left field scoring Heineman, while Heineman plated J.J. Altobelli with a sac fly to centerfield in the fifth.
Ducks sweep defending National Champions: Oregon opened its seven-game homestand last weekend with a three-game sweep of Arizona, the defending National Champions. The Ducks picked up a 2-1 win in game one on Friday, a 5-1 win in game two on Saturday and a 7-6 victory in game three on Sunday. Oregon hit .274 as a team with Tyler Baumgartner (.500, 1 double, 1 triple), Brett Thomas (.375, 4 runs scored), Ryon Healy (.300, 1 home run, 5 RBI), and Scott Heineman (.300) all batting .300 or better. The Ducks pitching staff limited Arizona's potent offense finishing with a 2.33 ERA. All three Oregon starters -- Jake Reed, Tommy Thorpe, and Cole Irvin -- picked up wins. Jimmie Sherfy had a save, while the Ducks bullpen didn't allow a run in the first eight innings of work before giving up three runs in the ninth inning of game three.
UO climbs in polls: Oregon moved up in all four of the polls released on Monday after sweeping defending national champion Arizona last weekend. The Ducks climbed one spot in the Baseball America poll to 12th, while moving up five spots in the Collegiate Baseball poll to 10th, three spots in the USA Today Coaches Poll to ninth, and five spots in the Perfect Game poll to 11th. (The NCBWA poll wasn't released as of 4 p.m. Monday)
Ducks schedule features a number of ranked teams: Oregon played six games in a 10-day stretch against teams ranked in the top 25 poll starting March 1 when the Ducks visited No. 5 (this week's Baseball America ranking) Cal State Fullerton. The Ducks returned home for a two-game series against Cal State Northridge and then played three games against No. 3 Vanderbilt. Oregon's schedule doesn't figure to get any easier with the Ducks facing two Pac-12 teams and one West Coast Conference team currently ranked in the Baseball America poll later this season. Second-ranked Oregon State (April 9 at OSU, May 17-19 at PK Park, May 21 at OSU), No. 7 UCLA (April 19-21) and No. 21 Gonzaga (May 14-15) are all ranked in the Baseball America Poll. Stanford and Arizona State, who both dropped out of the BA poll in the last few weeks, are ranked in at least one of the other polls. Stanford, who Oregon plays April 26-28, is ranked 24th in the USA Today Coaches Poll. Arizona State (April 5-7) is 24th in the Perfect Game poll. Arizona, who the Ducks swept last weekend, was ranked in all five polls earlier this season but has dropped out after being swept by Oregon State and Oregon in back-to-back weekends.
Ducks use strong pitching to get off to quick start: Oregon has used solid pitching to get out to an 18-6 start heading into this week's games against Portland and Washington. Oregon's staff has combined for a 2.92 ERA while striking out 173 hitters in 213 innings with just 77 walks. UO has used six different starters in the first 24 games, with those pitchers combining for a 3.33 ERA. Jeff Gold, who has started three games and appeared in relief three times, leads the group of starters with a 1.23 ERA. In his three starts, Gold has allowed just four earned run in 17.2 innings pitched for a 2.04 ERA. Friday starter Jake Reed leads the team with 30 strikeouts in 36.2 innings pitched. Saturday starter Tommy Thorpe has a 3.28 ERA and 26 strikeouts in 35.2 innings. Sunday starter, and true freshman, Cole Irvin has a 3.69 ERA with the Ducks winning five of his six starts. The Ducks' bullpen has been even better compiling a 2.30 ERA over 74.1 innings. All-American closer Jimmie Sherfy (1.65 ERA) has seven saves and a win, while striking out 24 in 16.1 innings pitched. True freshman Garrett Cleavinger has a save, as does junior Christian Jones. Darrell Hunter is second on the team with 12.1 innings pitched out of the bullpen and has a 2.19 ERA.
Jones gets first start since May 28, 2011: Senior Christian Jones made his first start in 21 months Feb. 26 against Portland. The 6-foot-3 left-hander entered the game on a pinch count and threw 3.0 innings, allowing just two hits while striking out five. Jones missed all of the 2012 season while recovering from an elbow injury. He returned to the mound during this year's season opener when he pitched three innings in relief, allowing just one hit while striking out two in a win over Hawaii on Feb. 16. Jones earned the save in the Ducks' win and appeared in two more games out of the bullpen before making his start, throwing an inning at Hawaii on Feb. 18 and two innings against Loyola Marymount on Feb 22. For the season, Jones has a 0.00 ERA in 13.0 innings while allowing just four hits with 15 strikeouts. In 2011, Jones finished the season with a 7-2 record and a 3.24 ERA. He started 12 games for the Ducks, striking out 73 hitters in 77.2 innings. The Danville, Calif., native struck out more than 10 hitters twice that season. He had 13 against BYU and 12 vs. Saint Mary's.
Four Duck pitchers combine for 15 strikeouts in 3-1 win over Portland: Christian Jones, Jeff Gold, Garrett Cleavinger and Jimmie Sherfy combined to strike out 15 Portland batters in a 3-1 win on Feb. 26, while not allowing a walk during the game. Jones started the game and struck out five in three innings before giving way to Gold who fanned a career-high seven Pilots in four innings. Cleavinger struck out two in the eighth inning, and Sherfy added one punch out in the ninth to give the Ducks their most strikeouts since Feb. 18, 2012 when Oregon pitchers struck out 17 Hawaii batters in a 12-inning win.
Ducks play 10 TV games: Oregon will make its second of 10 regular season appearances on national television on Saturday when the Ducks host Washington on the Pac-12 Networks. Oregon plays a total of eight games on the Pac-12 Networks during the season, while also playing one game on ESPNU and one game on the Big 12 Network. (See complete TV schedule on page 6)
Ducks 14-6 all-time against ranked teams at PK Park: Oregon is no stranger to hosting ranked teams at PK Park. During the program's four-plus seasons playing in the park, the Ducks have played 20 games against teams ranked in the Baseball America top 25 and compiled an impressive 14-6 record in those games -- a .700 winning percentage. Oregon hosted No. 2 Vanderbilt March 8-10 and won one of three against the Commodores. The Ducks dropped games one (4-1) and two (4-2) before winning the series finale (7-5) on Sunday. Vanderbilt was the highest-ranked team to visit PK Park, matching the number-two ranking of Arizona State in 2010.
The Ducks have won every series against ranked teams they have played in PK Park, with the exception of the Arizona State and Vanderbilt series. Oregon beat defending National Champion, and 15th-ranked, Fresno State two out of three in 2009 in the first series in ballpark history against a ranked team. The Ducks won the first two, 1-0 and 7-1, before losing game three 10-3. In 2010, Oregon dropped two of three to No. 2 Arizona State winning game two 6-5 in 12 innings, while beating No. 19 San Diego 13-4. In 2011, UO beat No. 23 Arizona two of three and swept No. 6 Oregon State at PK Park. Last season, the Ducks swept No. 14 Arizona State in a three-game series, while beating No. 23 Oregon State in a single Tuesday game. Since baseball was reinstated at Oregon, the Ducks have played the No. 1 team in the country in two separate series on the road. In 2009, UO lost two games at UC Irvine (9-6, 7-4) before taking two of three games (5-4, 8-4, 1-5) at UCLA in 2010.
Sherfy named to Golden Spikes Award watch list and NCBWA Stopper of the Year watch list; junior also on three preseason All-America teams: Jimmie Sherfy has been named to both the 2013 USA Baseball Preseason Golden Spikes Award watch list and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Stopper of the Year watch list. Sherfy, who is one of 50 players named to the Golden Spikes Award list and 75 players named to the NCBWA preseason list, was a Stopper of the Year finalist as a sophomore last season. The Camarillo, Calif. native has also claimed a number of preseason All-America honors. He was named a preseason first-team All-American by the NCBWA and Louisville Slugger, and was a second-team preseason pick by Perfect Game. Sherfy earned multiple postseason All-America honors as a sophomore after finishing the season with 19 saves and a 2.20 ERA. The right-handed reliever claimed first-team ABCA/Rawlings All-America recognition, while being named second-team All-America by the NCBWA, Baseball America, and Perfect Game, and third-team by Louisville Slugger. Sherfy was also a NCBWA Stopper of the Year finalist and claimed first-team All-Pac 12 accolades after leading the league in saves. Sherfy set an Oregon record with 19 saves while finishing with a 5-3 record in 36 appearances. He struck out 93 hitters in just 61.1 innings (an average of 13.6 strikeouts per nine innings pitched) and held opponents to a .172 batting average.

Horton named 2012 Division I Coach of the Year by FieldTurf: University of Oregon head baseball coach George Horton won the 7th annual FieldTurf Baseball Award as the 2012 NCAA Division I Coach of the Year Field Turf announced in January. Horton led the Ducks to within one win of the College World Series in just the program's fourth season after it was reinstated for the 2009 season. Under Horton's tutelage, Oregon finished the 2012 season with a 46-19 record and a No. 11 ranking in the final Baseball America Top-25 poll. The Super Regional appearance was the eighth by a Horton coached team, and the first for Oregon since 1954. The 40-win season was the ninth in Horton's 15 years as a head coach at the Division I level and the team's .708 winning percentage was the best by a Ducks team since 1978.

More about the Trayvon Martin case
July 3, 2013 - Andrea Johnson
There's probably a reason that all defense attorneys tell their clients to keep their mouths shut.
Reading accounts of the George Zimmerman trial in Sanford, Fla., this morning, I see that the prosecution showed the jury a TV interview that Zimmerman gave several months after he shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, following a scuffle he claims was started by Martin. Prosecutors contend that he deliberately followed Martin, profiled him as suspicious, and shot him "because he wanted to."
In the TV interview, Zimmerman said he had never heard of Florida's Stand Your Ground law until after he shot Martin. Today the prosecution put one of Zimmerman's college professors on the stand, who said Zimmerman got an A in his class and knew all about Florida's self defense and Stand Your Ground law before the shooting. Had the shooting never happened, Zimmerman would have graduated in the spring of 2012 and hoped to become a police officer himself.
I don't know that Zimmerman's obvious poor judgement, his interest in the law or even his allegedly fibbing to a TV reporter necessarily adds up to a guilty verdict. I, too, know a fair amount about the law and at one point considered becoming a lawyer. I have read North Dakota's Century Code and State and U.S. Supreme Court decisions, as well as various legal blogs. I know it is a very bad idea to talk to the police, even if you're innocent, without a lawyer being present. I suspect all of that knowledge would fly straight out of my ears if I were ever in the situation Zimmerman was in that night in February 2012. Yesterday his friend testified that Zimmerman was stunned and wide-eyed when he picked him up from the police station. The police officer who interviewed him soon after the shooting testified that Zimmerman, a Catholic, told her that that killing people is always a sin. He was surprised and upset that Martin had died. I'm not sure that a man who was in shock was capable of a convincing fabrication.
What's interesting at this point is the way social media is being used in this trial, for good or for ill. Every time a witness appears, people give instant (often unflattering) feedback on Twitter and on various blogs. The defense attorney's daughter posted an Instagram photo of her and her father eating vanilla ice cream. The caption read "We beat stupidity celebration cones." The prosecution, apparently believing that the defense attorney can control his daughter's exercise of her right to freedom of speech, is demanding an investigation. Angry supporters of the Martin family have tweeted death threats to Zimmerman if he is acquitted. If the NSA is really watching us all, as Edward Snowden (currently in hiding) has said, then none of these people seem overly concerned.
What would have been good advice to Zimmerman is also good advice to Molly West and to the scores of blabbermouths threatening violence on Twitter: when in doubt, shut up.

agreed.. now Rachel the star witness told CNN that she told trayvon to run because the guy following him might be a rapist and maybe was going to attack him..
So maybe Rachel was the instigator in the fight????
Maybe if he hadn't been on the phone and wasn't being coached maybe he would have gone to his fathers on a dead run.. Was he trying to show rachel he could handle himself? Was he trying to impress her?

In danger of losing their lives? Not likely in Minot. I think they probably do get looked at a little more closely when they're walking down the street or in the store, etc. After awhile, that's got to be a pretty stressful way to live. I can understand all the outrage to some extent, but I still think this was the right verdict under the law as it is written.
Jul-15-13 11:00 PM
AJ Unless you live in a really bad city blacks don't have the fear walking down the streets either.. Are you saying blacks in North Dakota fear for their lives when they walk to the store?
Yes there are bad neighborhoods in cities but the majority of the killings are black on black or hispanic on hispanic.. Its not white on white..
Jul-15-13 8:00 PM
I'm white, not black, and I don't have much to fear if I walk down the street on my way home from the store. In a lot of ways, I can understand why black parents are so upset by this and feel that Zimmerman should have been punished. Statistically, minorities are more likely to be prosecuted and to serve longer prison sentences than whites for the same crime. Profiling and sentencing laws and programs like New York's "stop and frisk" all contribute to the outrage. Those are the feelings that Obama and Holder are trying to address. But all the moral outrage in the world wouldn't have made it appropriate to convict Zimmerman. The state simply didn't prove its case.
Jul-15-13 6:58 PM
Seems the DOJ would be at odds with the FBI who claim they have investigated this already and found no racial bias.
I suspect Holder doesn't have the gonads to come right out and say justice was done. Like Obama he has to use the system and excuses for 30 or 40 days to get his people calmed down before he can agree with the verdict.
What a sick country we have with our current leaders.. Pathetic
Jul-15-13 5:02 PM
I knew what you were getting at but the law that people call "Stand Your Ground" sounds like it was an addition to the standard self defense statutes that a lot of states have. Zimmerman's lawyers were claiming that he acted in self defense and weren't using the newer law for his defense. The newer law could come back into play if Zimmerman uses it to claim immunity to civil action.
So far I see the President and Eric Holder making soothing noises in their speeches and saying they'll look into it, but Holder's office also talks about the "limited" options under the law. I think the DOJ likely knows they wouldn't be successful bringing a federal civil rights charge against Zimmerman.
Jul-15-13 4:45 PM
Andrea the point is there is no "Stand Your Ground Law" That is a slang for "No Duty to Retreat" ..
I suspect that Stand Your Ground is NOT TAUGHT but rather they are taught No duty to Retreat.. Even the teacher said they dont "teach" Stand your ground" but they do teach No Duty To Retreat!
Jul-15-13 12:03 PM
The statute that would apply relate to "self defense." Zimmerman's lawyers mounted a self defense case and didn't use the so-called Stand Your Ground law that says there's no obligation to retreat if your life is in danger, presumably because Zimmerman said he didn't have the option of retreating at the time he pulled the trigger. The "Stand Your Ground" law would come back into play if the Martin family files a civil suit for wrongful death. Zimmerman can request a hearing and claim immunity because the killing was in self defense and justifiable under Florida law. The acquittal would provide strong support for the claim.
Jul-15-13 11:42 AM
I find it rather funny that namexxx cannot undewrstand what happened.. Martin was NOT gunned down in the streets.. Martin was on top of a man beating his head into the cement when he was shot.. He was not gunned down. He was killed by a man who could not get away from the beating he was being given.
I guess one should just get use to the left changing the story to make themselves feel good.
Jul-15-13 11:38 AM
The guy on the stand also said they don't teach Stand Your Ground!! They teach self defense and he doesnt have it any where in the books the words "Stand you Ground" law.. Just a slang..
Jul-15-13 9:32 AM
None of this means that I think Zimmerman did all the right things that particular night. There are also reportedly some things in his past that cast a real shadow over his character, though he was very young when they happened and I don't think they had any real bearing on this case. I hope he has a chance to try to put his life back together and do something good for society.
Jul-15-13 9:29 AM
I don't know much about the Alexander case, but it certainly sounds like she received far too harsh a sentence. I hope someone will look into it.
I think this was the only decision the jury in the Zimmerman case could arrive at, given the law. I find it rather dismaying that the feds are considering charging Zimmerman with civil rights violations. Looking at the federal hate crime law that could apply, I don't think they're likely to succeed, but it's more piling on. A civil suit is likely to fail in Florida as well because of the Stand Your Ground law that grants immunity against civil action for a justifiable homicide. Zimmerman's lawyers have said they'll seek immunity if anyone does file a civil suit.
Jul-14-13 12:48 PM
Yeah, I think I first heard about the Marissa Alexander case for the first time on MSNBC last night AFTER the Zimmerman verdict was handed down.
Certainly sounds like it could have been a huge miscarriage of justice for Mrs Alexander. Of course, I don't know any of the facts of the case, aside from the few that you and MSNBC have presented, so I'm not prepared to comment on it any further.
So what does it have to do with Zimmerman's case. Absolutely nothing. So why bring it up? The race-baiting continues. Mrs. Alexander was a black woman, and of course Zimmerman was "white".
Well, understand one thing: the justice system may have indeed failed Mrs. Alexander. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with the outcome of the Zimmerman trial.
By the way, I don't seem to recall you championing Mrs. Alexander's case at any time in the past year. Why so silent, if this was such a travesty of justice?
Jul-13-13 11:46 PM
Jul-11-13 4:28 PM
I'll add that a good bit has come out about the background of George Zimmerman over the past year that makes me think he is not a terribly good guy. I am rather glad there is little to no chance he will ever become a police officer. But that still doesn't add up to second degree murder.
Jul-11-13 11:54 AM
If you have been watching the trial, you would have seen Zimmerman's Peruvian-born mother and uncle and his white American father testify and it would have been clear that Zimmerman is half white and half Hispanic. I believe the family has said that one of Zimmerman's maternal grandparents was a black Hispanic. Zimmerman also appears to be friendly with black and Hispanic neighbors, teachers, and others in the neighborhood. The prosecution hasn't done a terribly good job of proving he is racist, if that was their intent.
Jul-11-13 11:48 AM
I don't think anyone here said there is anything funny about racism or bigotry. However, it isn't necessarily illegal to be racist or bigoted. Zimmerman was not breaking a law by following Martin; he wasn't breaking a law by "profiling" a young black man as a suspicious person after there had been break-ins by young black men in the months prior in that neighborhood. Under the Florida statute, what matters is whether a reasonable man would have feared for his life or safety at the time he pulled the trigger. Zimmerman claims that Martin was on top of him, banging his head into the ground, at the time he shot Martin. Zimmerman had up to six head injuries -- two lacerations on the back of his skull, a broken nose, and other facial injuries, according to testimony at the trial. Martin had no such injuries, aside from a laceration on his left hand, and the fatal gunshot wound.
Jul-11-13 11:23 AM
There's nothing funny about racism and bigotry.
Jul-11-13 9:02 AM
Andrea...was my comment asking about MDN policy THAT bad that it had to be removed? I received a "black mark" on my "record" for asking a question? In the "blogs" section, which I haven't commented in up to this point, I am now 2 "good" comments and 1 "bad" (removed) comment. Sorry for being out of line.....
Jul-10-13 11:29 PM
An Innocent man? Innocence is in the eye of the beholder, my friend. And so far, Zimmerman is the one with the EVIDENCE on his side.
Jul-10-13 11:18 PM
Jb, I listened to it many times. There is absolutely no evidence Zimmerman started any confrontation, or even that Martin was in the immediate vicinity when Zimmerman got out of his car.
Like it or not, your assumptions are not fact. And the mere act of following someone to watch where they are going is not an aggressive act, nor is it against the law in ANY jurisdiction.
If you think you can justify Martin throwing a punch at Zimmerman for doing this, I see a jail cell in your future, because sooner or later, you're going going to apply that logic in your own life (if you haven't already).
Jul-10-13 6:10 PM
angeR69, listen to the phone call made by Zimmerman. It is very clear that Zimmerman was the one who forced the confrontation even after being told to stop following him.
angeR69 and AndreaJohnson, Martin had the right to throw the first punch if he did. He was clearly worried for his life. The Stand Your Ground law should only be a defense for Martin in this case and NOT Zimmerman as he was the one who was acting like a wannabe cop and killed an innocent man.
Jul-08-13 8:16 PM
Namexxx, you keep bringing that up. Juries do not and should not decide whether a guy should go to prison based on how they would feel if it were their kid or, in my case, my nephews. Of course I feel bad for the family of Trayvon Martin and that a kid lost his life. But the state has the burden of proof and it doesn't appear to have proven its case. I don't think there was ever enough evidence for them to bring charges under the Florida statute. They haven't proven that Trayvon Martin did not throw the first punch or that George Zimmerman was not in reasonable fear for his life. The second is what he needed to be able to legally pull the trigger.
Jul-08-13 6:32 PM
I wonder if this would all be so funny if it was your kid gunned down on the street because he or she went to the store for some Skittles.
Jul-07-13 10:37 PM
Andrea, I'm going to caution you right now on your application of reason and logic. I know you're just a lowly MDN reporter and blogger, but a case like this calls more for bigotry and wild speculation, like the professionals we see on MSNBC. Your liberal credentials are at risk.

Get an alert for markdowns and new arrivals of Asics!
Showing 1-60 of 203 Results
In 1949 Kihachiro Onitsuka was manufacturing basketball shoes in his living room. Little did he know that he would eventually have created a world-renowned brand for runners and other athletes looking for quality and comfort. ASICS™ is an acronym for the Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano", which translates to "A sound mind in a sound body." And that is exactly what Asics is striving for.
To create top-performing running apparel, running shoes and other running necessities, Asics opened the Research Institute of Sports Science. In Kobe, Japan, this site is where technology and innovation go hand-in-hand to create breakthroughs in running clothes and running shoes. With over 45,000 square feet of space for testing, Asics studies everything from the movements of the human body to the durability of their running gear with a 350m all-weather running track.
When it comes to quality and "what's best for the body", Asics goes above and beyond. When Asics athletes visit the facility, Asics creates tailor-made running clothes and shoes that work with that athlete's body. From this research, Asics is able to enhance the running clothes and running shoes that they create for all athletes. Asics takes every opportunity to better their running clothes, so the athletes can better themselves.

ZF-10277: Constructor code for response header analysis throws "PHP Notice: Undefined offset: 1" when instanciated with header array.
There is no clear format for the header-array required. But the constructor will fail anyway because of a curious call to explode().
list($name, $value) = explode(": ", $value, 1);
From the PHP manual ([http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.explode.php]): ??If limit is set and positive, the returned array will contain a maximum of limit elements with the last element containing the rest of string.??
With the limit-parameter set to one explode() will always return an array having exactly one element. The list-keyword on the left side of the assignment expects two elements. Thus, no matter what $value contains this will issue PHP to complaining with "Undefined offset: 1".
Good catch (looks like it has been a bug for years...). Fixed in trunk in r. 22810 and in release-1.10 in r. 22811. Will be included in the next release.
Also, added a couple of unit tests.

PORTLAND, Ore. – University of Oregon sophomore Liz Brenner added another of the state's top honors Sunday after an impressive multi-sport season for the Ducks.
At the annual Oregon Sports Awards banquet Sunday, the Portland native received the Bill Hayward Award as the top female amateur athlete from the high school, college and resident ranks, and based on 2012 calendar year honors.
Similarly, Duck senior running back Kenjon Barner picked up the men's award named after the legendary former Duck men's track and field coach.
In his 44 years at the helm, Hayward served on the coaching staff of six U.S. Olympic teams and coached four world-record holders, six American record holders, four NCAA champions and nine U.S. Olympians.
Joining Brenner among the Hayward women's award nominees was senior Alaina Bergsma - a first-team All-American and the Ducks' first Pac-12 and AVCA National Player of the Year.
Oregon volleyball head coach Jim Moore was also nominated as the Slats Gill Sportsman of the Year after he was tabbed the 2012 Volleyball Magazine Coach of the Year last month.
Other current or recent Duck winners honored Sunday included Eugene product and freshman Sulman Raza (Prep Men's Golfer of the Year), Ashton Eaton of the Oregon Track Club (Harry Glickman Award for top Professional Athlete) and the Oregon acrobatics and tumbling, women's cross country and women's indoor track and field teams who shared the George Pasero Award (for national titles in their sports).
On the volleyball hardwood last fall, Brenner helped Oregon (30-5, 16-4) to its greatest season ever, thanks to its best-ever runner-up NCAA and Pac-12 placings.
The All-Pac-12 and All-Region outside hitter became the first Duck underclassmen to earn All-America volleyball laurels with her second-team national honor.
Among the team's 35 matches, she led the team in hitting 11 times, and points and kills 10 times, and was one of the team's key passers in serve receive. At season's end, she stood top 70 nationally in both kills (69th, 3.92 per set) and points (70th, 4.39 p/s), and ninth and eighth in the Pac-12 in points and kills.
Among top individual efforts, she won her first Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Week honor in early November for her play in three- and five-set wins vs. Arizona (18 kills, .516, career high 4 aces) and ASU (17K, .297, 11 digs) – and the latter was one of eight double-doubles on the season (and all of which came in league or postseason action).
Her season highs in kills (26) and points (27.5) came in four- and five-set matches vs. No. 16 BYU and California.
The three-sport Duck star – UO's first female since Peg Rees (a basketball, softball, volleyball letterwinner from 1973-76) - also started at forward for the basketball team in the winter of 2011-12 (21 GP, 8 GS, 5.8 ppg, 5.8 rpg). Last spring, she served as a back-up catcher for the Duck softball team that advanced to the Women's College World Series and placed third in the nation's top softball conference.
The past two months, she has started 11 of the 13 games she's played for the women's basketball squad, and is averaging 8.0 points and 3.5 rebounds.
As a prep senior for Jesuit High School, she was an Oregon state player of the year in volleyball and basketball, a state champion in the shot put and runner-up in the javelin, and an all-state catcher in softball as a sophomore.

Warns if the truck wanders off lane
Lane keeping support (LKS) option monitors the truck's
position on the road and reduces the risk of accidentally driving off the road. The main application area is in longhaul operations on motorways when the truck is driving at a steady speed in monotonous environments. The LKS video system comes to the driver's aid when he shows signs of distraction, tiredness or lack of concentration.
Warns of potential side collision
The Lane Changing Support (LCS) option - keeps an eye on the blind spot on the passenger side that the rear view mirrors cannot cover. When the driver operates the indicator to change lanes, the LCS system's radar unit first checks whether there is a vehicle in the blind spot. If there is, the driver is alerted via a light signal.
Alert when tired
Driver alert support (DAS) option monitors parameters such as steering wheel and pedal movements. A video camera on the inside of the windscreen reads off the road's centre and edge markings and an on-board computer compares the driver's steering wheel movements with the road markings. When the driver starts weaving with the steering wheel, DAS alerts the driver both via an acoustic signal and by flashing an indication in the driver information display. This option is only available with LKS.
Adaptive cruise control that maintains a steady distance
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) option is an active cruise control system that makes it easy to blend into the traffic rhythm and keep a constant safe distance behind the vehicle in front. The radar-based ACC maintains a constant distance between the vehicle in front through automatic operation of the accelerator and brakes. The radar sensor is entirely new and has improved detection capabilities.
Electronically controlled fast brakes
Volvo's electronically controlled disc brakes (EBS) are characterised by high braking effect combined with heat-resistant disc installation. Electronic control provides an extremely fast response and short braking distance. The EBS brake system is enhanced with the standard Medium package that includes the "Hill Hold" function and the optional High package that features an electronic stability program ESP.
Brake stabilisation forgives the driver
The Electronic Stability Program is included in EBS High for all disc braked tractors and is now available on 6×2 tag axle air suspended rigids. The system permits more uniform braking with the possibility of redistribution of braking forces between the axles and wheels when required in severe conditions, it also provides roll over protection.

Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery
High Availability
Ensure simple, cost-effective availability for all your applications
Traditional application-level clustering solutions are costly, hard to implement and difficult to manage. With VMware vSphere, you increase the baseline level of availability for all your applications and ensure service level agreements are met.
In addition, you can slash planned downtime, prevent unplanned downtime and recover rapidly from outages as you:
- Eliminate planned downtime for common maintenance operations.
- Provide higher availability independent of hardware, operating system and applications.
- Recovery rapidly from operating system and server failures with automatic virtual machine restarts
Planned Downtime
Planned downtime for local system maintenance is the number one cause of downtime in IT environments. Maintenance windows are scheduled long ahead of time for evenings or weekends to minimize business impact. VMware vSphere enables organizations to eliminate planned downtime and perform system maintenance at any time to reduce the burden on IT and without affecting service
- VMware vSphere vMotion leverages the complete virtualization of servers, storage and networking to move an entire running virtual machine instantaneously from one server to another.
- VMware vSphere Storage vMotion provides the ability to perform live migration of FM disk files across heterogeneous storage arrays with complete transaction integrity and application availability.
Unplanned Downtime
Due to the complexity and cost of application-level clustering, only a minority of applications are typically protected with these solutions. In traditional IT environments, that leaves the majority of applications with no protection against unplanned downtime. VMware provides a set of capabilities to provide simple and cost-effective availability for all applications running on VMware vSphere.
- VMware vSphere Fault Tolerance provides continuous availability for applications in the event of server failures by creating a live shadow instance of a VM that is in virtual lockstep with the primary instance.
- VMware vSphere High Availability reduces application downtime by automatically restarting VMs on available servers upon detecting server hardware or guest operating system failures.
- VMware vSphere Application High Availability complements the functionality of vSphere High Availability with application-level monitoring and automated remediation.

Were you born to rage? Is the need for anger management in your genes? Many, like ex-punk rocker Henry Rollins, have struggled with feelings of aggression their entire lives, and National Geographic is on a mission to figure out why.
Scientists are investigating a single genedubbed the warrior genethat has been associated with violent behavior, raising the disturbing possibility that some people are Born to Rage. Henry tests this theory on a colorful crew: outlaw bikers, mixed martial arts fighters, Buddhist monks and former gang members. DNA testing reveals which of themincluding possibly Henry Rollins himselfcarries the warrior gene. The results provide an extraordinary insight into human behavior.

Dapper Ed Carr, of Nicholas & Co., was there too, full of energy and excitement about the 4th Annual Ultimate Chef Competition, which happens this afternoon as a highlight of Nicholas' Food Show at South Towne Expo Center.
I've been a judge at this contest since the get-go, and it's evolved into a serious throwdown. Officially, the prize is the chance to join the roster of ChefDance celebrity chefs during the Sundance Film Festival, cooking dinner for a crowd of luminaries of various brightness.
But the real prize is bragging rights.
The first year, we judges ate for hours - chefs were allowed to prepare multiple courses - but the competition has gotten more streamlined, focused and easier on the judges' digestive systems every year.
This year, the competitors are:
- Chef Jodi Rogers from Deer Valley - Chef Phillip Yates from Grand America - Chefs Ethan Lappe and Adrian Alvarado from Caffe Niche - Chef Elio Scanu from Zucca Trattoria
The secret ingredient will be unveiled at 1:00pm and the winners will be announced at our customer social at 5:30pm.
Tune in for Tweet updates.
Nicholas & Co.'s Food Show has evolved, too. Besides showcasing new products for professional pantries, the event offers kitchen and serving seminars. Today, for example, the owner of Santa Monica Seafood will breaks down a full size Moonfish and a Swordfish marker. On Wednesday, educational seminars include Food & Wine Pairing, Managing by the Numbers, Social Media Bootcamp and How to Sell More Wine Without Being an Expert.
It's all in the interest of elevating the whole regional restaurant scene, just like the Farmers Market, and the vendors, gourmands and foods at last night's event were proof of the pudding
- Leslie Seggar, owner of Tulie Bakery, Matt Caputo, Viet Pham of Forage, Adam Price of Salt Lake Art Center (where the Fallen Fruit show opens this week), Slow Food doyenne Christi Paulson and Salt Lake magazine Dining Award panelist Virginia Rainey and Downtown Alliance's own shrinking violet Jason Mathis were all there enjoying made-in-Utah foods like Beehive cheese, Creminelli salumi, Kiler Grove wines.
Not to mention Squatters beer.Hey, don't try to focus. This was a just- before-leaving shot...
