"We don't win the game without Ruslan (Pateev)'s performance. I don't know if I've ever been as proud of a player as I am of him because he's all in no matter what."

Three Sun Devils scored in double figures to lead ASU, highlighted by Felix's double-double. He scored a team-high 17 points and anchored the Devils with 13 rebounds. Jahii Carson struggled from the field most of the night, but made crucial shots that tied the game in regulation and won it in overtime. Carson finished with 15 points. Jordan Bachynski added 14 points, many of which kept ASU in the game in the beginning of the second half.
Utah held Arizona State scoreless for over four minutes early in the first half, and used a 9-0 run to lead the Sun Devils, 9-6, at the second official timeout. Bachynski made two of his first three shots to give ASU the early 4-0 lead, but the Sun Devils went cold quickly thereafter, making only one of their next 10 shots from the field.
Felix accounted for 10 straight ASU points and recorded a block during the Devils' 12-2 run, putting the Sun Devils on top, 21-17, at the final official timeout in the first half. At halftime, ASU held onto a 25-24 lead, after the Utes controlled the final minutes of the half. Felix led all scorers with 10 points at the break, while Jason Washburn nearly had a double-double at the break for the Utes, with eight points and nine boards. Neither team shot particularly well from the field, with ASU shooting a 39.3 percent clip and Utah being just below at 35.7 percent.
Despite the continued shooting struggles for Arizona State to begin the second half, Bachynski kept pace with the Utes, scoring all eight ASU points, allowing the Devils to maintain a 33-31 lead at the first official timeout of the half.
The teams traded baskets through the middle of the half until Utah was able to overtake the Sun Devils, 42-41 with 6:22 remaining in the game, as a result of a 6-0 run that kept ASU scoreless for just over three minutes late in the half.
Felix finally broke the run with a free throw, followed by a layup on the next possession, and the Sun Devils regained the lead at the final official timeout, 44-42, with 2:47 remaining in the game.
Utah jumped back on top of the Devils, following a 7-2 run, but Carson drained a crucial three with a minute to play, knotting the game, 49-49. Neither team was able to get anything going offensively on their final possessions, sending the game to overtime.
Bachynski put the first points on the board in overtime, draining a jumper a minute into the period to give ASU a 51-49 lead. Utah countered with a layup to tie the game for the eighth time of the night, but Ruslan Pateev broke the tie with a layup on the Devils' following possession. Sloppy ball handling kept the score stalled into the final minute of overtime, before Jarred DuBois hit a deep three pointer to give the Utes a one-point advantage with 41 seconds remaining. Carson delivered a hard-fought layup on the following play to give the Sun Devils the lead, and Utah the last shot. Arizona State's defense held strong in the final seconds of the game, denying the Utes on four opportunities to deal a devastating blow.
Under Coach Sendek, the Sun Devils are 7-4 in overtime games. Before tonight, ASU had not played in an overtime game since a 73-72 loss to UCLA on Jan. 29, 2011.
Both squads struggled shooting from the field, with ASU shooting slightly better, recording 37.1 percent on 23-62 from the field. Utah shot 34.5 percent on 20-58 from the field. The Utes outrebounded Arizona State, 44-39, but only had seven second-chance points compared to 15 for the Devils. ASU also had 30 points in the paint, while Utah had 20.
Utah was led by the efforts of Washburn, who had a game-high 19 points and 18 rebounds. Jordan Loveridge also anchored the Utes on the glass, pulling in 11 rebounds to go along with nine points. DuBois added 12 points for Utah.
The Sun Devils will return to action on Sunday, hosting Colorado at 6 p.m MT, to conclude their home stand.

NEW YORK – In a nationwide assessment of sustainable practices by the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and the Green Sports Alliance, Sun Devil Athletics was named one of the top-10 athletic departments for sustainability. Arizona State University was honored for its use of solar energy to provide power to its sporting facilities as well as ASU's four campuses in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
"Progress toward sustainability requires the reconceptualization and reorganization of all of university enterprises," said Arizona State University President Michael Crow. "Nowhere is this more visible than in athletics, where the interaction between the university and its constituents is most public."
Harnessing one of Arizona's most abundant natural resources with almost 300 days of sunshine a year, Sun Devil Athletics leads the nation in solar panel installations with nine athletic-specific systems and one dedicated to the campus' recreational facility. These installations generate approximately 7.5-megawatt hours of electricity each year, the most of any athletic department in the country. Collectively, Arizona State University has 72 solar systems across four campuses Valley wide.
"Athletics provides a unique opportunity to promote sustainability at our university, and Sun Devil Athletics has fully embraced the opportunity to advance sustainable practices as an institution and with our fans," said Steve Patterson, Vice President for University Athletics.
Sun Devil Athletics' ninth and newest solar installation at Farrington Stadium, home to the two-time NCAA Champion Sun Devil softball program, plans to be fully operational come late September and will not only provide power to the facility but act as a sun shade for fans attending games in the spring. The Farrington Stadium project will be the first solar install for Sun Devil Athletics that provides dual-functionality for a sporting facility by providing both power and shade.
The Arizona State University solar system installations are facilitated, in part, by Arizona Public Services (APS) Renewable Energy Incentive Program. The program offers financial incentives to customers, such as ASU, who add renewable energy systems to their businesses.
The NRDC Collegiate Game Changers report highlights 30 schools across the NCAA and provides 10 detailed case studies on the top universities in various sectors of sustainable practices: Arizona State (solar power), Arizona (plumbing), Colorado (green building), Florida (irrigation), Minnesota (energy efficiency), Ohio State (zero waste), Oregon (food donation), North Texas (wind), Texas (turf efficiency), and Washington (supply chain).
The NRDC is an international nonprofit environmental organization with more than 1.4 million members and online activists. Since 1970, its lawyers, scientists, and other environmental specialists have worked to protect the world's natural resources, public health, and the environment. Since 2004, NRDC has been a world leader in professional and collegiate sports greening.

Men's Hockey Drops League Opener at Cornell, 4-2
Live Stats
ITHACA, N.Y. (11/1/13) - The Princeton men's hockey team couldn't recover from a four-goal deficit as the Tigers fell 4-2 to Cornell in the ECAC Hockey league opener on Friday, Nov. 1 at Lynah Rink.
Cornell capitalized on its first power-play opportunity as John McCarron scored at 3:48. Brian Ferlin skated into the zone on the right side and passed to Joel Lowry. Lowry's pass was corraled by McCarron and went glove side for the goal.
The Big Red grabbed a 3-0 lead early in the second period with two goals in 56 seconds as Christian Hilbrich and Ferlin both scored.
Princeton had chances to score as it had two two-man advantages after four Cornell penalties. Senior Andrew Calof was awarded a penalty shot at 11:15 after Clint Lewis was called for covering the puck in the crease. Senior netminder Andy Iles thwarted the Calof shot, as it fell under his pads. Cornell itself had a two-man advantage late in the period but the TIgers successfully killed off both.
The Big Red however struck again at 16:37 of the second as Lowry made it 4-0.
Junior Tyler Maugeri scored his second goal of the season less than three minutes into the third period with help from seniors Eric Carlson and Andrew Ammon.
With four penalties in the third period Princeton couldn't gain momentum. With 1:27 remaining Cornell was called for a penalty and the Tigers struck. Princeton put six skaters on the ice, pulling netminder Sean Bonar for the 6x4 and junior Tucker Brockett delivered. Senior Jack Berger and Calof earned the assists.
Princeton oushot Cornell, 28-24 as Iles made 26 saves for Cornell and Bonar stopped 20 for the Tigers.
Princeton faces Colgate tomorrow afternoon at 4 p.m., at Starr Rink.

The Public folders are a convenient way to share files on your computer. You can share files in the Public folders with other people using the same computer and with people using other computers on your network. Any file or folder you put in a Public folder is automatically shared with the people who have access to your Public folders.
The Public folders are in the Documents library.
Open the Documents library by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Documents.
In the left pane, under Libraries, click the arrow next to one of the libraries (Documents, Music, Pictures, or Videos).
You will see the Public folder for each library.
No. You can also share files directly from any folder on your computer without copying or moving them to the Public folders. Sharing directly from a folder gives you more control over who you share files with. It lets you select people on an individual basis and set the level of sharing permissions for each person. For information about when to share from a Public folder and when to share directly from other folders on your computer, see File sharing essentials and Share files with someone.
Using a homegroup is a new way to share. A homegroup is a group of computers that shares pictures, music, videos, documents, and even printers. The computers must be running Windows 7 to participate in a homegroup. To learn more, see What is a homegroup? and HomeGroup: frequently asked questions.
The Public folders contain subfolders to help you get organized, but they don't contain any files until you or other people using your computer add files to them. The folders are organized by content type, and include:
Public Documents
Public Music
Public Pictures
Public Videos
It's up to you. You can put files or folders you want to share into the Public folders. Copy or move songs you want to share into the Public Music folder, photos into the Public Pictures folder, and so on. The Public folders are a good place for any files you want to share with the people who have access to your Public folders.
Don't put files into the Public folder unless you're sure you want others to see them. If you want only certain people to access a file, consider sharing it from a non-public folder. For information about how to share this way, see Share files with someone.
Public folder sharing is turned off by default (except on a homegroup). When Public folder sharing is turned on, anyone on your computer or network can access these folders. When it's off, only people with a user account and password on your computer can access them.
Open Advanced sharing settings by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type network, click Network and Sharing Center, and then, in the left pane, click Change advanced sharing settings.
Under Public folder sharing, select one of the following options:
Turn on sharing so anyone with network access can read and write files in the Public folders
Turn off Public folder sharing (people logged on to this computer can still access these folders)
Click Save changes.
If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
When you share the Public folder on your computer with other people, they can open and view the files stored there just as if they were stored on their own computers. If you give them permission to change files, any changes they make will change the files on your computer.
If you click a Public folder or its contents, you'll see Advanced sharing settings in the Share with menu. This option takes you to Control Panel, where you can turn Public folder sharing on or off.

Levi Hobbs
Winter Haven, Florida
Git 'R Done Racing was established in 1999 as a family hobby between David Hobbs (not the famous racer/TV commentator) and his son Levi. A four-cylinder Dodge Daytona was converted into their first race car, and they competed at the 1/4-mile semibanked oval at Auburndale Motor Speedway in Winter Haven, Florida. Levi competed in the "Kids Club" class for three years with much success before the racer's hunger for more speed and better competition led the team to move up to the next level.
The Fastruck series runs at several tracks throughout Florida and uses GM metric chassis and crate engines with fiberglass pickup truck bodies. This seemed like the logical series for Levi and the family to progress into as he moved up the ladder. The Fastruck series has a separate division for kids between 12 and 16 called Fastkids. The Git 'R Done team purchased a used chassis and wiped out Levi's savings, plus some of Mom and Dad's, to get it on the track. His first year in the series, Levi finished Seventh in points with no DNFs and picked up tremendous experience and confidence. The next season, he finished Third overall in the Fastkids points standings.
In 2006, Levi moved up to the adult division of Fastrucks and has already captured one pole, one win, and five Top-5 finishes in just eight races. He's Third in the championship standings as of this writing. Like anyone who has ever strapped into a race car, Levi wants to make a living as a professional driver. He has his sights set on moving up to a Limited Late Model next year and wants to get into a driver development program to run in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.
The $250 of Sunoco Racing gas supplied by this month's YRC sponsor-Sunoco Race Fuels-will help Levi and the Git 'R Done team cover expenses this season. Thanks, Sunoco, and best of luck on your career aspirations, Levi.
Micah Veleba
Sutton, Nebraska
It was almost inevitable that this month's winner of our Young Racers Club sweepstakes would end up behind the wheel of a race car. Micah Veleba, 18, first went to the racetrack when he was only 1 week old. His uncle, Kent Tucker, was a regular competitor at various Nebraska short tracks. Micah always wanted to get behind the wheel himself but was told by his father Randy that he would have to wait until his uncle retired. You see, Randy Veleba co-owns Sutton Auto Supply and figured they could only afford to sponsor one racer in the family at a time.
In 2003, Kent Tucker hung up his helmet and sold his familiar No. 57 Late Model. It took Micah until 2005 to obtain a car of his own and get it ready to compete at Junction Motor Speedway in McCool Junction, Nebraska. Micah chose to put the number 57 on his Hobby Stock race car as a tribute to his uncle, but he added the "JR" designation to indicate that he was a second-generation driver.
Micah spent 2005 learning his way around the 3/8-mile semi-banked dirt oval at Junction Motor Speedway. He finished Third in points and won the Rookie of The Year title. His father Randy says that he's proud of how much Micah has learned about the mechanical aspects of a race car in such a short time, and he's had plenty of practice doing bodywork.
The '06 season finds Micah running Fifth in points after suffering many mechanical woes. The $250 product certificate from this month's sponsor, TCI, should at least help him in the transmission department. He's brought on some new sponsors this year and would like to make a good showing for them. Micah is a senior in high school and is the point guard for his school's varsity basketball team.
Micah's racing endeavor is truly one of those stories you like to hear around America's short tracks-an uncle as a racing mentor, a father who prepares his son's car, and a young man who has learned respect and built character through competing on the racetrack.
Erica Harmon
Lake Almanor, California
22-year-old Erica Harmon of Lake Almanor, California, is this month's YRC winner. Erica competes regularly at the Lassen Speedway, a 1/4-mile dirt oval in Susanville, California, as well as the 3/8-mile clay oval known as Reno-Fernley Raceway in Fernley, Nevada.
Erica not only started racing in 2000, she started accumulating track championships as well, winning the Mini Stock division crown. The next season she jumped up to the Street Stock class, where she competed for four years, taking the championship in 2004. In 2005, Erica tried her hand at an IMCA Modified and, as you may have guessed, won the Modified division championship at Lassen Speedway that year.
When Todd Bruso of ESPN Radio of Reno, Nevada, learned of Erica's championship, he contacted her for an interview and mentioned that he thought she was the first female to win a Modified championship west of the Mississippi.
Erica credits her car owner, Steve Buhr, and crew, Josh Gillis and Charlie Farris, for helping her get to the winner's circle. She also mentioned that she has 21 proud sponsors that have contributed to her success on the track.
As this month's YRC winner, Erica will receive a $250 product certificate from the fine folks at Comp Cams. That should come in handy as she decides what racing division to conquer next.
Danny Efland
Irmo, South Carolina
17-year-old Danny Efland is one of those guys you would say has auto racing in his DNA. His father, Tom Efland, was testing at the racetrack when he got the call that Danny's birth was imminent. The team rushed home 150 miles to Irmo, South Carolina, in time for his birth, celebrated, then headed back to the track to prepare for the SCCA National Championship races.
Danny started his own racing career in karts at the ripe old age of 7, and amassed three WKA National Asphalt Championships, two WKA National Dirt Championships, and seven State Kart Championships (South Carolina and Alabama). WKA Triple Crown and WKA Grand National Championship trophies also reside in the Efland race shop. He accomplished all of this while maintaining his standing in the academically gifted program in his school despite travel that took him to races from New York to Florida.
In 2002, Danny made the move to stock cars by campaigning a Pro-Modified Mustang at the Florence Motor Speedway and the Summerville Speedway, both 4/10-mile banked asphalt ovals. With a goal of just learning how to drive a fullsize stock car, Danny surprised everyone by winning numerous races, the Rookie of the Year title, and the Florence Motor Speedway Track Championship.
Danny spent 2003 and 2004 gaining experience in the UARA-STARS Late Model Stock Touring Series. He finished Eighth in points while competing against some of the biggest names in the region. He also gained valuable experience by running such fabled tracks as Nashville, Hickory, Coastal Plains, and Myrtle Beach. In 2005, Danny managed two Late Model wins at Florence and made his USAR Hooters Pro Cup debut finishing 24th at USA International Speedway in Lakeland, Florida.
This year has started with a bang. Three poles, two wins, and a Second - all in just three races at Florence Motor Speedway, where Danny is running for the Late Model Championship. He also plans to make several USAR Hooters Pro Cup races, including those at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and Lakeland, Florida. The $250 Young Racers Club award certificate presented by Racing Head Service should help the team stretch its budget a little further this year. Keep tabs on Danny by checking out his Web site at www.dannyefland.com.
Brannon Simpson
Chesapeake, Virgina
This month's YRC winner is 19-year-old Brannon Simpson, who first caught the racing bug while sweeping his dad's race shop at a very young age. By the time he turned 13, Brannon was driving a Mini Stock at the 3/8-mile Dixieland Speedway in Elizabeth City, North Carolina. He won The Most Improved Driver award in 2001 while finishing in the Top 10 in points at the challenging dirt track.
Brannon then made the jump to the Budweiser All Star Limited Late Model division, where he again won The Most Improved Driver award while also taking home the Hard Charger award and finishing in the Top 10 in points. In 2005, Brannon stepped up to the highly competitive Super Late Model division at Clary's Speedway, a 1/4-mile, semi-banked red clay oval located in Brinkleyville, North Carolina.
Knowing that it takes more than a heavy right foot to make a career in racing, Brannon is enrolled in The Motor Sports Technology Program at Patrick Henry Community College in Martinsville, Virginia. There, he is president of the PHCC Motor Sports Association, which allows students to prepare and support an asphalt Late Model stock car for competition at local tracks.

|Barone honored again
DENVER – Kyle Barone's strong play is a big part of Idaho's five-game winning streak and on Monday, he was honored again by the Western Athletic Conference as its Verizon Men's Basketball Player of the Week for the week of Feb. 13-19.
Barone, a junior center from Garden Grove, Calif. (Pacifica HS), led Idaho to a 77-68 win in its Sears BracketBusters game against Portland State at the Cowan Spectrum on Saturday. He led all players with 25 points on 10-of-11 shooting – both of which are career bests – and added eight rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block.
The 10-of-11 field goal percentage is tied as the third-best single-game shooting performance by a Vandal and is the best since Mike Hall equaled the tally in a win over San Jose State on Jan. 24, 2008. It's also the second-best single-game shooting effort in the WAC this year.
In addition to his hot shooting from the field, Barone also went 5-of-5 from the free throw line.
The honor is Barone's second in a row this season and the second of his career. During Idaho's active season-best five-game winning streak, he's averaging 17.6 points and 8.4 rebounds on 33-of-54 (.611) shooting from the field, along with a 22-of-28 (.786) free throw clip.
Idaho men's basketball has one game this week as the team heads to Logan, Utah, for a Friday matchup with Utah State. The Vandals and Aggies tip off at 6:05 p.m. (PT).

'Green' pizzeria latest addition to restaurant boom in Ogden
Published: Tuesday, November 5, 2013 at 11:51 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 5, 2013 at 11:51 a.m.
Ogden's red-hot restaurant boom continues.
New Jersey-based restaurateur Kleantis "Kleo" Pechlivanidis said he intends to open Green Line Pizza & Steak with business partner Matthew Skutnik at 7134 Market St.
In late September, the owners of Avanti NY Pizza Restaurant announced plans to leave the space and move further north on Market Street into the Big Lots plaza, a spot that has seen a significant uptick in traffic since the opening of Ogden Tap Room last month.
The property vacated by Avanti didn't sit empty for long. With 20 years in the food service industry, Pechlivanidis said he's drawn to the comparatively relaxed coastal lifestyle Wilmington has to offer. "The Green Line" isn't a nod to a favorite transit line, but rather a reference to the sustainable, organic and otherwise healthful fare he intends to offer.
The restaurant will be a pickup and delivery operation once renovations are complete, and Pechlivanidis said he hopes to open by the end of November. Expect chicken and cheese steak sandwiches to round out the pizza offerings, which will be available to a lunch and dinner crowd from 11 a.m. daily. Closing hours were not yet set, but will likely be around 10 p.m.
As for Avanti, a late-September Facebook discussion thread indicated the restaurant intended to reopen in early November, but no renovations were immediately evident in the vacant units near Big Lots. Calls to the pizzeria's phone number indicated the line had been disconnected, and a visit to the Web address listed on its Facebook page indicated the domain name was available for sale.

Philadelphia, Pa. -- University of Maine senior defensive lineman Michael Cole (North Brunswick, N.J.) has been named to The Sports Network FCS Preseason All-America Third Team, as announced by the network on Monday, July 1.
A season ago, Cole recorded seven sacks in just five games to go along with 20 tackles and a pair of forced fumbles. Cole's 7.0 sacks unofficially led the CAA, as he did not appear in enough games to officially qualify for the recognition. Heading into 2013, Cole stands just 6.5 sacks away from tying the all-time school-record of 27.5 sacks in a career.
The Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) received a total of 14 selections to the preseason All-America team, fourth most among FCS leagues.

text: Mention the term "Southern rock" and two bands instantly leap to mind: the Allman Brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd. They defined the genre in its Seventies heyday and beyond, and both bands are still active entities. But whereas the Allmans were deeply steeped in blues and jazz, Lynyrd Skynyrd more freely embraced rock. Their three-guitar lineup gave them an uncommon musical muscle, while their down-to-earth songs spoke plainly and honestly from a working-class Southerner's perspective. Theirs is one of the most dramatic tales in rock history. The saga of Lynyrd Skynyrd has unfolded in an almost mythical series of ups and downs, from ...full bio

Bonar Makes 36 Saves but Princeton Falls to SLU in Regular-Season Finale
CANTON, N.Y. (3/1/14) - Senior Sean Bonar came in on relief and made 36 saves for the Princeton men's hockey team, as the Tigers lost 5-0 at St. Lawrence in the regular-season finale on Saturday, March 1 at Appleton Arena.
Princeton will return to the North Country next weekend to face Clarkson in the ECAC First Round Series, as the Knights earned the No. 5 seed in the tournament.
Jeremy Wick had a natural hat trick to pace the Saints offense. Gavin Bayreuther scored a power-play goal and added two assists. Greg Carey and Justin Baker had two assists apiece.
Kyle Essery opened the scoring when he flipped the puck past freshman netminder Colton Phinney, who started in goal for the Tigers, at 2:22. Wick started his hat trick with a one-timer 1:29 later to end Phinney's night in net.
Bonar took over and played well the rest of the way, but the Saints expanded their lead. Wick scored his second of the night at 18:32 of the first and completed his hat trick with a rebound at 11:47 of the second. Bayreuther completed the scoring with a power play goal from the center slot with 43 seconds left in the second period.
The Saints outshot Princeton 41-14 with Bonar making 15 saves in each the second and third periods to finish with 36 for the game. Weninger made 14 saves in his eighth career shutout.

The moody video for "Under" by Dallas based hip-hop duo A.Dd+ features rapper Dustin Cavazos and producer Picnic Tyme (of the Cannabinoids crew with Erykah Badu).
The piano-driven beat featuring Little Dragon's "Twice" aids heavily in creating a cozy, nostalgic feel to the track. It can be quite the feat to live up to samples with such strong recognition and memories already attached to them, so we have to give it up to A.Dd+ for really carrying the song and making it their own.

Driver License Eligibility Requirements
First Time Drivers
You must be a resident of the Commonwealth of Virginia and at least 16 years and 3 months of age to obtain a Virginia driver's license.

If you are under age 18, you must provide written consent from one of your parents or your legal guardian unless you are married or emancipated.
If you are under age 19, you must complete a state-approved driver education program.
If you are age 19 or older, and you have never held a driver's license issued by Virginia, another state, a U.S. territory, or foreign country, or cannot show proof that you previously held such a license, you must show proof that:
- you have passed an approved driver education course, or,
- you have held a Virginia learner's permit at least 60 days before taking the DMV road skills test.
At any age, as a first time driver, you will be required to provide documents to prove identity, legal presence, Virginia residency, and, if you have one, Social Security number. Use the interactive document guide to determine which documents you will need to bring to DMV when you apply, or refer to "Acceptable Documents for Obtaining a Driver's License or Photo ID Card" (DMV 141) .[Back to Top]
New Residents
Within 60 days of moving here, you must obtain a Virginia driver's license. However, if you hold a commercial driver's license (CDL), you must obtain a Virginia CDL within 30 days.
If you are age 19 or older and you hold a valid driver's license issued by a U.S. state or territory, a Canadian province, France or Germany, you may not be required to:
- take the two-part knowledge exam or the road skills test
- show proof of successful completion of a driver education course or hold a learner's permit for 60 days.
However, you must pass a vision screening test.
If you are age 19 or older and you hold a valid driver's license issued by a country other than Canada, France or Germany, you may not be required to show proof of successful completion of driver education or hold a learner's permit for 30 days.

Military Personnel
If you are an active-duty member of the Armed Forces stationed in Virginia, you, your spouse and dependent children 16 years and 3 months of age or older may drive with a valid driver's license issued by your home state or country.

If you are enrolled as a full-time student in an accredited school in Virginia and not employed, you may drive in Virginia with a valid out-of-state (or another country) driver's license and valid out-of-state license plates on your vehicle. If you are a full-time student and employed, you are considered a resident of Virginia for the purposes of motor vehicle laws only. This does not necessarily qualify you for in-state tuition rates. Therefore, you must apply for a Virginia driver's license and register your vehicle in Virginia. You must register the vehicle in Virginia even if it is owned by someone else.[Back to Top]
If you are a non-resident temporarily living in Virginia, you may drive with your home state or country driver's license and license plates for no more than six months.

TEMPE, Ariz. -
For just the third time the season, the No. 22 Arizona State Sun Devils (15-3; 5-2 Pac-12) women's tennis team suffered defeat, at the hands of UCLA 5-2, on Saturday afternoon at the Whiteman Tennis Center in Tempe, Ariz.
"It's never easy to lose, especially when you're at home. The weather was at our advantage, it was a little hot this weekend so when you have those things going in your favor you want to come away with a win for sure," ASU Head Coach Sheila McInerney said.
Arizona State was forced to give up the first point before the match even started, forfeiting the No. 6 singles spot due to injury. When the lineup was written on the grease board, Desirae Krawczyk's name was noticeably missing -- the freshman who normally plays at the No. 2 singles position sat out of the day's match as a precaution to potential injury on her leg.
The previous match against USC, in which ASU did not win even a single set, left a horrid taste in the mouth of each and every player. The team as a whole was committed to improving their game in a quick turn around, and they did just that securing the doubles point against UCLA to tie the match at one all.
Seniors Jacqueline Cako and Nicole Smith, paired at No. 40 overall, defeated the No. 3 singles player in the nation, Robin Anderson and her partner Skylar Morton by a score of 8-4. On the No. 3 court, the sophomore-senior pairing of Leighann Sahagun and Hannah James secured the match point with an 8-5 victory over Catherine Harrison and Pamela Montez.
"I thought we came out with a lot more energy (than yesterday) in the doubles, I was really happy with the way we played doubles and I thought all three teams played very well," McInerney said.
But singles play was a different story -- UCLA was able to win four of the five matches played, clinching the overall match win on the No. 4 court.
"It just goes to show you that the doubles point is important but it's certainly not the end all," McInerney said. "We were competitive in a lot of these matches. Joanna (Smith) had some chances to win the first set, Hannah (James) had some chances to get back into that second set. I think we had more belief than we did yesterday."
The one bright spot of the weekend came on the main stage for Senior Jacqueline Cako. Ranked No. 23 in the country, Cako defeated No. 3 Robin Anderson with no question in two sets 6-2, 6-3, earning the sole singles point for her team.
The highly ranked Bruin was no match for Cako's strength on Saturday afternoon. Especially after losing the day prior in a match Cako called "horrible."
"I did returns by myself for 45 minutes after that match yesterday," senior Jacqueline Cako said. "I go out there when I am beyond frustrated. I hate to lose and I wanted to come out and play better than I did yesterday because the match yesterday was unacceptable in my eyes."
From beneath her Sun Devil visor, McInerney echoed the same sentiment.
"Psychologically it's great, Robin (Anderson) is ranked in the top-5 so it's a great win for Jacqueline (Cako) for sure. It's something she has worked hard for and with our toughest competition at the end of the season she had a tough one against today and an even tougher one yesterday."
Arizona State continues conference play when the Golden Bears of California make their way to Tempe, Ariz. for a mid-afternoon matchup on Friday April 12. Competition gets even tougher with Stanford the following day.

Rated 4 out of 5 by TSH Wonderfull!!! We just put in a pool last summer and had many gatherings on the weekends. We set up a table with our food and the bugs and flies found their way to the table. I searched for easy and inexpensive covers for food everywhere. Places were wanting way more than I was willing to pay for just one and they weren't very good quality. I came across these and am very satisifed. I may have to get another set for this summer. April 25, 2012

No. "To have dinner" is the idiom.
While "to have a dinner" is not ungrammatical, I have been struggling to concoct a circumstance in which I might say that, and it's hard. The only one I have been able to come up with is with a different meaning of the word "dinner", viz a formal event at which one eats (i.e. a banquet). Then we might say "Our society has a dinner every year on the occasion of ... ".
But I can't come up with a likely use with the ordinary meaning of "dinner".

Within a few weeks she was living in our house, her belly swelled up with the cancerous fluid called ascites, lying in bed in a state of unrelenting nausea, with my dad—her son—carrying her regularly to the bathroom so she could vomit. A few weeks later, she was in the hospital. And a few weeks after that, she was dead. Witnessing this as a healthy teenager was horrifying. Far from fading, the memory of my grandmother's death has loomed over me ever since, because, it turns out, that exact cancer afflicted her mother, my great-grandmother.
Three decades later, in my forties, I started experiencing pain in my lower right abdomen. It was variously diagnosed as endometriosis or irritable bowel syndrome. At one routine physical, I mentioned the family history, and my GP suggested I get checked out by doctors conducting an ovarian-cancer study at New York University. There, a sonogram picked up an 11-centimeter mass. My doctor thought it was just a fibroid, but she strongly recommended that I get the test for the BRCA gene; if I had the dreaded female cancer mutation, it would make me 15 to 40 percent more likely to get ovarian cancer.
She wrote the prescription, and I called my insurance company for prior approval. It refused, on the grounds that the ovarian cancer is on my father's side of the family, not my mother's, and is therefore less likely to be passed down (though doctors consider maternal and paternal family histories of cancer equally). Of course, I could have had the test if I paid for it myself. But it cost $3,340, and I had two kids and an underemployed husband.
Fast-forward three years to today: The fibroid is still there. My doctor, who checks on the lump every six months, assures me that if it were cancer, it would be growing, which it isn't. Although that's reassuring, I'd enjoy more peace of mind if I knew my BRCA status. Which I don't. The test still costs thousands of dollars. And I still cannot afford it.
But if bioethicist Lori Andrews succeeds at the U.S. Supreme Court, I may be able to have the test for a price closer to $300. Right now theBRCA test is very expensive because the gene has beenpatented by some of the researchers who helped to isolate it. Myriad Genetics, the patent holder and sole provider of the diagnostic test for the gene, has the right not only to set the price for the test but also to approve or prevent any non-Myriad research involving the gene. Should a commercial entity be entitled to patent a human gene, as if it were a product the company had invented? Andrews, who is also a lawyer, says no. "Patenting a genetic sequence is like patenting the alphabet and charging us a royalty each time we speak," she once told CBS News, and since 2005 she has been working with other lawyers to overturn the patent. Now the case has a good chance of reaching the Supreme Court.
That is why, on a sunny summer day last year, I visit her in Chicago. Even though the skirt suit she's wearing is a TV-ready purple, Andrews, 59, is so slight that she nearly disappears in her large, glass-walled corner office on the fifth floor of the Chicago-Kent College of Law. Petite and fair, she brings to mind Reese Witherspoon's character in Legally Blonde. Decades ago, when she was a newly minted graduate of Yale Law School, the elders at her firm openly called her the lawyerette.
Thirty years on, that lawyerette has staked a place for herself on the futuristic edge of her field, where ethics tries mightily to keep pace with technology. "I have been an early-warning system about technologies and about what can go wrong in a society that is hugely enthusiastic about technologies," she says as assistants hand her one document after another. "Throughout my career, I've looked at the impact of technology on individuals and on society as a whole. And women have been central from the beginning."

TORKIN WAKEFIELD(far right), DEVIN HIBBARD (left) and GINNY JORDAN (seated),
Since 2004 this nonprofit has helped thousands of Ugandan women and their families emerge from poverty by marketing their beaded jewelry (see photo) and shea butter products.
In 2003, Wakefield was working in Kampala, Uganda, helping women with HIV/AIDS; Hibbard (her daughter) and Jordan (a family friend) visited. After checking on a patient in a slum, Hibbard recalls, the three passed a woman outside her mud home making rolled-paper beads. She said they were hard to sell. "We bought a few necklaces," Hibbard says, "and so many friends in Kampala admired them that we wondered how there could be no market." They asked the woman to gather other local bead makers; 100 showed up. "We bought two necklaces from each and brought them home as gifts. People liked the beads—and the stories of these incredible women, working to give their kids a better future."
The trio wanted to create sustainable income for the bead makers. They knew a lot about helping—Hibbard has a master's in public administration, Wakefield is a former Peace Corps volunteer, and Jordan is a psychotherapist. But none had a business background. Still, they launched an organization that not only sells jewelry made by Ugandan women but also trains them in entrepreneurship.
The beads and shea products, made from nuts harvested by rural women, are sold online and in 50 retail outlets. But 70 percent of revenue comes from bead parties—more than 3,000 of them in 2011 alone. Necklaces, bracelets and earrings go for $5 to $50. The volunteer hostess gets a kit that includes a CD of songs sung by former bead makers. Party proceeds fund development projects in Uganda, including entrepreneurial training, health programs and kids' school fees.
On average, beaders' monthly income after training increases sevenfold, to about $230. This past year, 1,700 women who made beads, sewed bags for them or gathered nuts supported 14,000 family members.
"When you learn that 50 percent of the world's people live on $2 a day or less," Jordan says, "you feel overwhelmed. It's great to discover that helping doesn't have to be arduous. You can start to take action by buying something beautiful." Wakefield agrees: "People in our culture are yearning for connection and meaning. Bead parties create an opportunity for women to say, 'I can do something that matters for real people.' "

Breakfast in bed is such a nice idea, but speaking as a loving mother…well, it's hard to make yourself pretend to sleep while people who don't know where anything goes rummage around in your kitchen, using every pot and pan available to overcook your eggs. Then you have to eat it all, hungry or not. Then get up and do the dishes.

Okay, what if you blow it completely because after all, Saturday is Derby Day and your horse may win, in which case hilarity and juleps may ensue. Not to worry. Chef Ethan Lappe at Caffe Niche has your back. His restaurant is serving a "No Reservations Mother's Day Brunch." No reservations translates to guilt free. Caffe Niche just remodeled the patio, too. Brunch is from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. and the menu is wonderfully a la carte, including some of the freshest eggs we've had from the free-range chickens at Tifie Ranch in Morgan, Utah. Like,
Fish Tacos with blackened day boat sustainably caught fish cabbage, lime cilantro aioli, house make pico de gallo and fresh avocado, 11
Ethan's famous breakfast sandwich with house-made English muffin, scrambled Tifie Ranch free range eggs, avocado, bacon and hollandaise, 7
Bagel and house smoked salmon plate with sesame bagel, cream cheese, sliced tomato, cucumber, red onion, lettuce and caper berries, 10
Bread pudding French toast with strawberry syrup and fresh whipped cream, 9

Okay, you already know Oasis Cafe–it's one of SLC's favorite breakfast places already. But the tried and true get all spruced up in honor of Mom and Oasis will serve a Mother's Day buffet on Sunday, May 13 from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. (Cost for adults is $32; children 12 and under$18.) Dinner will be served with specials complementing the evening a la carte menu from 5 - 9 p.m. Mom's menu is amazing:

Oasis' sister restaurant Faustina will also serve brunch 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and dinner 4:30 to 9:00 p.m.on Mother's Day, May 13. But at Faustina brunch is a sit-down, served affair with a la carte pricing. And, a specialty drinks menu was created just for the occasion, besides dishes like Texas toast with honey almond butter and roasted grapes, decadent cinnamon swirl pancakes with cream cheese glaze; brie puff pastry with roasted red grapes and a seasonal berry compote; Faustina Benedict with polenta, local Italian sausage, grilled tomato, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce, served with house made breakfast potatoes; and Sotelo's Faustina Scramble with artisan lamb sausage, roasted pepper medley, Asiago cheese and scrambled eggs served with a French baguette.
Faustina is at 454 E. 300 South, SLC, 801-746-4441
At Bambara, it's back to the brunch buffet, but this is not your typical hotel buffet. Executive Chef Nathan Powers is far too fastidious for that. From 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. guests can sample a carving station with mustard glazed ham and organic turkey breast, made-to-order egg dishes, and a wide arrange of decadent pastries. Mouth-watering specialties out of Chef Powers' kitchen include Justin's famous quiches, poached prawns, brioche French toast, truffled macaroni and cheese, roasted spring asparagus and other delicacies. It's $38 for adults, $18 for children 6-12 years of age and $28 for senior citizens, and you must make reservations; this is always a sell-out.
Bambara is at 202 S. Main Street, SLC, 801-363-5454

F.O.G – Fats, Oils, and Grease.
What is FOG?
The term "FOG" refers to fats, oils, and grease, which are commonly found in such things as meat fats, lard, cooking oil, shortening, butter and margarine, food scraps, baked goods, sauces and soups and dairy products. Residential users as well as businesses generate FOG waste.
What's the Problem With FOG?
When FOG is poured down the drain it solidifies and sticks to the insides of sewer pipes (both on your property and in the collections system) causing obstructions and eventually blockages. Once these blockages are formed they can cause sanitary sewer overflows. Sewer overflows can cause raw sewage to enter the streets, storm drains, streams, businesses, yards, and even homes. Sanitary sewer overflows pose a risk to public health, adversely affect aquatic life, and are costly to clean up.
In an effort to prevent the introduction of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) into the City's sanitary sewer system the City is in the process of developing a FOG program. The FOG program is intended to educated businesses as well as residents on the problems associated with FOG and the measures that can be taken to limit or prevent the introduction of fats, oils and grease into the City's sanitary sewer system.
FOG Ordinance
The FOG Ordinance can be viewed in the Merced Municipal Code under "Discharges of Fats, Oils, and Grease From Food Service Establishements" - Title 15 Public Service, Division I Sewer System, Chapter 15.30.

|Ice Lake: Best Camping Spot Ever?
Date Climbed: Nov 5, 2012
|Route: East Ridge via Ice Lake
A pretty straightforward (and frankly boring, by Wallowas standards) switchbacking hike for the first few miles, but once you top out at Ice Lake, it's all more than worth it. What a beautiful place in early November snow. Camped there overnight during a full moon and hardly slept because I spent half the night scrambling around on the rocks near my campsite and taking in the moonlight shining off the ice on top of the peak.
The next morning's climb was gorgeous and pretty straightforward. With deep, new(ish) snow and high winds, the ridge up to the face was a little hairy, but luckily I'd brought crampons.

|Fun dayhike - liked the ridge traverse and loved the easy scree/sand descent. Went via Ice Lake.
Did anyone else notice the great big "kettlehole" a little below the ridge line between Matterhorn and intermediate peak. Maybe 20' wide and at least 40' deep. Glacier ground?
Taylor's Falls in Minnesota has similar ones.

|Pretty straightforward trail from Ice Lake leads to the summit. Nice views from the top, and the west face is quite the sight to see. Afterwards we traversed the ridge over to Sacajawea, which is a much funner mountain to climb.
There was no summit register when we climbed, and people were scratching their names in the rocks sadly enough. Needs a new register.

|Dayhike from Wallowa Lake TH. Left at 7:30, up to Ice Lake by 10:45. Left the lake at 11, summit at 12:45. Stayed on top for a while, what a great view. Down to Ice Lake in an hour, steep going, which I paid for in blisters and sore legs on the last 4 miles. Despite walking like an invaild for the last 4 miles, made it back to the TH by 5:30. A beautiful area, would like to camp at Ice Lake someday. Note to self...6000 miles of cycling in 9 months does NOT mean you should do 19 miles and 5500 feet of climbing for your first real hike of the year. I could hardly walk for 3 days after!

|With my dad and Flanders. First time wearing the rubber boots on a peak since the granite on this one is so crumbly and sharp on my pads. Took a nap at the summit and licked a cute girl's face from Beaverton. Went out a bit on the ridge to Sacajawea but not having opposable thumbs, I couldn't get past the scrambly part. So, Flanders and I waited until Dad tagged Sac and came back. Had a blast in the sand on the way down diving into it. Skiing sand is fun! Also, I tried to herd the deer together at Ice Lake but it didn't work so well. Those guys are fast!

David Guetta may be seen as a mainstream pop artist, but the superstar DJ actually started as a pioneer of underground house music in France. We just got a link to an interesting trailer to the soon to be released documentary about his life and rise entitled, Nothing But The Beat. It just goes to show where things can go, and love him or hate him, Guetta has certainly opened some doors for the music we love. We are also glad to see David Morales give some insight.
The movie will be released alongside David Guetta's forthcoming album, also titled Nothing But The Beat, at launch parties worldwide. Below are the dates – stay tuned for more details!

Bardonecchia itself is a market town with a mix of traditional and modern buildings. The resort has great character and a lively atmosphere. There are some good restaurants and bars and the resort can get quite busy at weekends when hoards of Italians arrive for a weekend of Bardonecchia skiing. That said, the resort is very friendly and has plenty to offer off the slopes, such as numerous shops, an indoor swimming pool, an ice rink and a cinema. Alternatively, take a day trip to Turin on the main train line.
There are three main areas for skiing in Bardonecchia which are interlinked providing an enormous ski area with 140km of marked piste. An extension to the lift pass to cover the Milky Way area is also available for the few who feel that they have run out of challenges in the Bardonecchia area.
Beginners: On their Bardonecchia skiing holiday, beginners will find convenient local nursery slopes in Melezet and Campo Smith. Once they have found their feet they can progress to the long blues runs at Colomion and Melezet.

text: I have a -55A compensator and I'm wondering what is the difference btwn the -55A and the -65 and later comp other than the absence of a zirk fitting in the latter, I know the sprocket shaft is longer from '64 to '65 and later but the protrusion after the spacer seems the same. this is for a '66 shovel. is the length the same and will the -55A comp work on the '66

It resembles a terrifying Stephen King novel, but it's all too real. In a lakeside village in Cameroon, West Africa, 2,000 people mysteriously die in one night. Witnesses claim their neighbors were suffocated by a white fog as they slept. Without any other clues, the question remains, was this Death Fog natural or man-made? In this area of volcanic activity, could the deaths have been caused by toxic fumes? Or was something even more sinister at work? National Geographic returns to the village to collect eyewitness accounts, conduct chemical experiments, and draw controversial conclusions.

A long time janitor at Frito-Lay, Richard Montanez came up with the idea for Flaming Hot Fritos and, after presenting the idea to the company executives, his new idea became a reality. Today, those spicy chips are Frito-Lay's top selling snack, and of course, Montanez was recognized. He continues to work for the company, although he now leads Multicultural Sales and Community Promotions. We salute you Mr. Montanez for being an inspiration to everyone, especially our janitor friends.
Let's celebrate together with some of these fine janitorial supplies that even Groundskeeper Willie would get choked up about.

Oxidative stress
The side-chain sulfur of methionine is exceptionally susceptible towards oxidation, which may lead to inactivation and degradation of proteins affected. Methionine sulfoxide reductases A and B reduce the two stereoisomers of methionine sulfoxide (MetO), MetSO and MetRO, respectively, in a thioredoxin-dependent manner. Thus, they repair oxidized proteins. Since the oxidation of surface-exposed Met does not necessarily lead to inactivation, as shown for E. coli glutamine synthetase, cyclic oxidation by cellular oxidants followed by reduction by MSRs may also contribute to inactivation of free radicals.
MSRA and MSRB enzymes from Jena Bioscience constitute useful tools for oxidative stress research. Furthermore, MSRs can be utilized for the reduction of Met-containing peptides and proteins oxidized during synthesis or purification, with DTT efficiently substituting the thioredoxin system.
