As consumers of network news/entertainment we must resign ourselves to accepting the bias in every broadcast. It would seem every journalist major wants to change the world rather than report the news. It is easy to see by the stories reported and the facts presented that bias hasn't just crept in but has an anchor spot on every broadcast. How many times have you seen Democratic party affiliation buried deep in a story that would have highlighted Republican malfeasance. Have you even noticed crimes stories with detailed descriptions of the perpetrator excluding race?
It has reached the point where every news story is viewed with a jaundiced eye. At least we could assume the facts of the report are true. Or can we? What if the reporter's bias isn't enough to sway you into his or her world view? Will we find some reporters manufacture controversy out of whole cloth to discredit a group or idea they disagree with? Let us report and you decide.
Earlier this month Dana Milbank of the Washington Post reported that the Benghazi Accountability Coalition turned into "ugly taunting of a woman in the room who wore an Islamic head covering". (Story here) He described Saba Ahmed as an American University law student who asked questions in a soft voice. Then he wrote panelist Brigitte Gabriel pounced, attacked and demanded even using the N word (Nazi). Dana then accused the panel moderator Chris Plante grinning while joining in the assault as the audience cheered.
It doesn't paint a pretty picture of those involved. Before we go to the video tape to decide for ourselves a few facts might be in order. This was not the Heritage Foundation as the headline implies, it was the Benghazi Accountability Coalition. They borrowed a meeting room to discuss why four Americans died in Benghazi and not to bash Muslims. Our soft spoken university student is not who she is portrayed as. She owns a Washington lobbying firm (here), ran for Congress in Oregon (here), graduated Portland state in 2004 (here) and still finds the time to march with OWS, volunteer for Democrat candidates and pal around with the Christmas tree bomber (here). She is as much a student as those that held our embassy staff in 1979.
Now that we know the facts let's review the video of what happens when an interloper asks a question designed to be off topic and newsworthy. (Video) Now that you have seen the actual exchange does it agree with what Dana Milbank reported? Is it possible that Dana and Saba were in collusion to produce what they hoped would be an O'Keefe moment? When it failed to meet their expectations did their prejudice get the better of them and did Milbank report what he thought would happen?
Since we have now seen both sides of the story and arrived at our own interpretation can we find other stories that are so blatant? It is easy to find if you look, here is one on gun control. What about stories that don't make the news? Stories of conservatives wanting not to disrupt, but inform the public of what goes on with public servants at college meetings. (Portland University public meeting) You can watch it several times and still not find the tolerance shown to Saba.
If you are now wishing for the halcyon times of the past you watch too much news. As Mark Twain said over 100 years ago "Those that don't read the news are uninformed, those that do are misinformed".

Stagflation Fears Stalk Turkey
ISTANBUL—Turkey, one of the economies hit hardest by the global rout of emerging markets this summer, saw its borrowing costs surge on Monday while its currency continued to weaken, feeding fears that the one-time market star could be developing a new ailment: stagflation.
Yields on the government's benchmark two-year bonds jumped 0.42 percentage point to 10.16%, the highest since January 2012, and the lira flirted with crossing an all-time low of two per dollar, a level it dropped to on Friday. Bond yields rise as prices drop. The lira recouped some of its losses and was at 1.9944 in late Istanbul trading.
Analysts say that with a currency in free fall, rising borrowing costs, and political challenges including mounting calls for intervention in Syria, Ankara will struggle to meet its 4% economic growth target in 2013.
That could presage a new normal that spells stagflation—a toxic combination of rising inflation and stagnating growth.
"Fundamentally, I don't think it helps a lot what Turkey's central bank is doing, it is adding to the uncertainty. The central bank has an inflation target and it should be focused on that, and not on all types of other things," said Lars Christensen, head of emerging markets research at Danske Bank in Copenhagen.
"The other problem is some of these political uncertainties will have policy shocks in Turkey which will also challenge economic growth… which means you're getting high inflation and low growth," he said in an interview Monday.
The central bank's confusing stance is also contributing to the selloff, analysts say. Spooked by the U.S. Federal Reserve plans to end some of its stimulus measures as soon as September, international investors have been leaving emerging markets since May. Turkey has been especially hard hit because fund managers have a difficult time following Governor Erdem Basci's multi-pronged policies, with targets ranging from inflation and economic growth to exchange rates and credit expansion.
Economists say Mr. Basci's efforts to stem the lira selloff is insufficient and only a significant boost to the central bank's key interest rates would send a clear signal.
Since cutting the benchmark one-week repo rate to an all-time low of 4.5% in May, Mr. Basci has refused to hike its policy rate amid government pressure to keep borrowing costs low to spur economic growth. Still, Development Minister Cevdet Yilmaz said Friday that that gross domestic product would likely expand by only about 3% this year, echoing Economy Minister Zafer Caglayan, who earlier in August had said Turkey would miss growth targets in 2013.
At its last two monthly meetings, the policymakers in Ankara have raised the overnight lending rate, which constitutes the ceiling of Mr. Basci's interest-rate corridor, to 7.75% from 6.5% in an effort to calm volatile markets. But as the inflation rate rose to 8.88% in July, and the lira plummeted, the moves failed to reassure investors about the central bank's resolve to stem the currency selloff.
The central bank has responded with series of policy tweaks and interventions, including $8.3 billion of currency auctions to support the lira since early June. But after spending more than 15% of their net reserves, policymakers have little to show for it.
On Tuesday, Mr. Basci is widely expected to verbally intervene, once again, with an interview scheduled for 10:30 a.m. local time. Analysts say the governor should use the opportunity to shore up the lira and put a halt to its dismal performance compared with other emerging market currencies. Turkey's lira was the worst loser among all peers except the Indonesian rupiah in the past week.
"We are seeing that Turkey's markets and currency is diverging significantly from emerging markets, especially in the last week… Considering the lira's recent divergence, we believe there is a need for a clear and strong verbal intervention by the central bank. Unless we see such a strong intervention, the lira's continued depreciation looks very likely in the short term," said Gizem Oztok Altinsac, chief economist at Garanti Securities in Istanbul.

A race motor capable of good power and durability is not only a product of the components you put into it, but also of how well it is put together. Without the correct tools, it is impossible to quantify such things as how tightly the bolts hold the rod and main caps together; how much clearance there is between the rod, main, and cam journals and the bearings; and even the engine's compression ratio. For these tasks and more you must have and be able to appropriately use the correct measurement tools. Many of these are fairly common in general automotive applications, but a few are quite specific to building race engines.
The one measurement tool that is absolutely necessary is a torque wrench. A torque wrench lets you specify exactly how much twisting force is applied to a fastener. Too little torque on a bolt does not provide enough clamping force, while too much torque can cause it to fail. Nearly every bolt inside the engine should be tightened with a torque wrench because every component in a race engine walks that thin line between ultimate performance and failure.
There are several different styles of torque wrenches, but no matter which style you choose, make sure you purchase a quality unit. Your engine's health depends upon the wrench's ability to measure torque accurately.
Other measurement tools that you should consider "must-haves" include a feeler gauge and a pair of dial calipers. A feeler gauge is useful for determining such things as ring gap, valve lash, and even crankshaft endplay. Dial calipers, either analog or digital, are much more accurate than trying to read a ruler or a tape measure. In general, all measurements must be accurate to within less than 0.001 of an inch, and this is only possible with quality measuring instruments.
The next step in engine-building accuracy is to purchase a dial bore gauge and a set of micrometers. The micrometer is extremely useful for measuring the diameter of a round surface. A dial bore gauge is useful for determining the diameter of a cylinder. A dial bore gauge can help you determine the quality of the honing job your machinist did on your cylinders or whether the connecting rods you wish to reuse after a rebuild have been damaged by detonation. Together, the micrometer and dial bore gauge are used to determine bearing clearances for your rod and main journals.
A dial indicator mounted on an adjustable stand, preferably with a magnetic base, also comes in very handy. The magnetic base allows you to position it just about anywhere on a cast-iron block, and you can use it to check such things as crankshaft and camshaft endplay, piston TDC, and even rocker arm movement, among other things. A dial indicator accurate to within 0.001 of an inch can be had relatively inexpensively from most tool distributors. You can also easily measure rod bolt stretch with a dial indicator mounted on a special fixture. You can begin by doing without these tools or borrowing from a friend. By the time you begin the build for your second engine, however, you will be ready for a set of your own.
Finally, there are other measurement tools that are necessary only to race-engine builders. A perfect example is when the rulebook mandates a minimum combustion chamber size for the cylinder heads or a maximum compression ratio. To produce as much power as possible, you will need to make sure your engine pushes these limits without exceeding them. If you are just getting started you can trust your cylinder head manufacturer's chamber volume specification to calculate compression ratio, but eventually you will want to measure this yourself.
A CC test kit uses a graduated burette that measures how much liquid an area, such as a combustion chamber, will hold. This allows you to measure your combustion chamber volume so accurately that you can even account for how deeply the spark plug intrudes into the chamber. Armed with this knowledge, you can calculate your compression ratio accurately to the tenth. You can then be sure all your hard work won't get thrown out after failing inspection in the tech shed.

Red Raiders Earn Eighth Straight National Ranking
Tech has been nationally-ranked every week of the 2014 regular season
April 7, 2014
LUBBOCK, Texas - Texas Tech received its eighth consecutive national ranking today as the National Collegiate Baseball Writers' Association tabbed the Red Raiders No. 30 in this week's national poll.
The Red Raiders (24-11, 5-7 Big 12) went 2-2 last week with a midweek, neutral site win over New Mexico in Midland, Texas, before hitting the road for the third time in Big 12 play and knocking off 20th-ranked Oklahoma State, 16-6, in game two in Stillwater.
The Red Raiders are among the nation's top 30 teams for the eighth straight week according to the NCBWA while checking in at No. 30. Texas Tech has occupied every spot in the poll from No. 25-30 during the regular season in the NCBWA poll.
Tech has been ranked every week of the regular season (Feb. 17-Apr. 7) in the NCBWA poll with its highest ranking at No. 25 (Mar. 10). Tech's highest national ranking this season came at No. 23 in the USA Today Coaches' poll on Mar. 10.
Texas Tech opens an eight-game homestand Tuesday, Apr. 8, hosting Abilene Christian at 6:30 p.m. at Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park. Later this week, Tech will host Kansas State, Apr. 11-13, for its second home Big 12 series to open the second half of the league slate.

the only con is that , it is very prone to scratches, so be careful with it
if you are looking for a good timepiece dont think,just go for it!
Yesterday it got it's first big scratch, went to the store to see what can be done..
they buffed it right away at no additional charge and left no scratches on it.
I wasn't sure at first if getting a Swatch was a right move, as all I've heard about them is that they're barely fixable..
But they simply work perfectly, look awesome and if one day you actually need a service, you'll get it.
Kudos Swatch.

Jane Austen Book Club Movie Reviews
User reviews on Jane Austen Book Club
My fourteen year old daughter and I went to see this movie without the slightest clue what it was about. It's a classic "chick flick" about the bonds of friendship, relationships & love. And what a wonderful surprise! The acting is stellar with a cast of very familiar faces. It's so heartwarming without being sappy. We laughed out loud and even cheered. It's like opening a very special present. Sit back & enjoy!

Glenn Beck-Backed Congressman-Elect to Ghostwrite Elizabeth Smart's Memoir
Chris Stewart is about to be very busy.
With captor Brian David Mitchell serving two life sentences, now 25-year-old kidnapping victim Elizabeth Smart feels free to tell her story to the world via St. Martin's Press, which recently bought the rights to publish her memoir. She'll be getting some help from Utah congressman-elect Chris Stewart, who has already written several titles "with religious and patriotic themes" and will serve as a ghostwriter on the project. As it turns out, Glenn Beck is a fan: "If he wasn't running, I'd be trying to convince him to work for me, to help me stay the course, strategize, and save the country," Beck said last winter.
Unfortunately for Beck, Stewart now has his hands totally full, what with his dual commitments to the people of Utah's 2nd district and Smart.
Stewart said Friday that Smart has made a surprising recovery from the brutal experience at the hands of her captor. "She has taken a professional outlook on this and is able to talk in an impressive way about these things frankly," Stewart told The Associated Press. He said parts of her book would receive "appropriate" but not "salacious" treatment.
On her end, nearly a decade after being taken from her home and held captive for nine months, Smart is busy with college, married life, and her job as an abduction expert at ABC News.

Voodoo II
Program InformationSeries: A Moment in Time
Duration: 00:04:01
Year Produced: 2010
Faced with intense opposition in the French ruling class, the African slaves of Saint-Domingue, now Haiti, took their traditional Vodou religion underground by combining it with Roman Catholicism.
A Moment in Time is a brief, exciting and compelling journey into the past. Created to excite and enlighten the public about the past, its relevance to the present and its impact on the future, A Moment In Time is a captivating historical narrative that is currently broadcast worldwide.For more information visit: http://amomentintime.com
Lead: Faced with intense opposition in the French ruling class, the African slaves of Saint-Domingue, now Haiti, took their traditional Vodou religion underground by combining it with Roman Catholicism.
Intro.: A Moment in Time with Dan Roberts.
Content: Vodou originated in Western Africa. The word in the indigenous Fon language of Dahomey, now Benin, means "spirit" or "deity." Each human is a spirit of the perceptible world and after death crosses over into the invisible realm which also is inhabited by spirits, ancestors--those who are recently deceased--and angels. Vodou (anglicized as voodoo), as it evolved in the Western hemisphere, gradually adopted many of the characteristics of Roman Catholicism, the most important being its acceptance of the Christian God as the deity. He created the spirits of the universe--the lwa, visible and invisible--to help Him keep humanity under control and bring order into the world.
In practice, Vodou is a family cult in which the spirits, especially of ancestors, are implored to provide protection, health and welfare to those still alive. Central to Vodou is the pursuit of healing through the assistance of the invisible spirits. Prayers, singing and dancing, accompanied by drums, are part of Vodou ceremonies. During these--at times--adherents often enter a state of trance, give divinely inspired advice, perform athletic feats, or attempt to cure the sick. The purpose of these rituals is to connect with the spiritual universe and bring order out of a world that is in chaos.
During the time of slavery, the opposition to open Vodou ceremonies was so intense from the French in Haiti that rites were forced underground, and many followers gradually began to synchronize their celebrations with the church year. In Haiti, two-thirds of the population is Roman Catholic, but many of these participate in the rituals of Vodou on the side, as do many others in the Haitian diaspora in the South America and the United States.
At the University of Richmond, this is Dan Roberts.

Duplication is the key. No thanks! I just let my account renew by mistake. Don't get the wrong idea you have a great concept, but it is so far in the hole I can't believe people are complementing it. This has nothing to do with the models it has to do with doing the same damn shoot over and over every week with differrent models. I know you did the beach and boat location a couple of weeks ago but it you look at the shoots they are all the same. Please look at earlier work you have done a long time ago. When's the last time you did a two girl shoot with girls that don't look like hookers. Maybe I'm out of touch, but this all blends together. You guys are better than this, I promise I cancelled my subscribtion today. I certainly will not renew when it runs out unless I see at least one shoot a month that is ORIGINAL. Thanks
|Mar 26, 2003
Why do you guys keep sucking up with "nice work" and "great" when it's always a rehash of something done recently, or as we have seen just a continuation. There are so many things you could do but you have been in a rut so long I doubt you have any vision left. I'm sorry! This site is a great idea but the problem is you have ran out of ideas. Try harder!
|Feb 1, 2003
Damn I can not believe you guys, this is the same damn vidio that we see week after week. No offence to Kendra. This is all production. You guys have a great site here but the originality continues to suck. Please bring in some help! I know you won't listen because you are deep in a rut and when these idiots cheer you on you suck it right up! Believe me This SUCKS!
|Sep 9, 2002
You guys must be running out of ideas, even this looks pretty much like everything else lately except for all that dumb wrap. Get back to the basics.....
|Jun 6, 2002
OK It was nice to get two updates this week and the electricity was not bad. I would like to see the girls seem more concerned than just playing along though. It's also been a while since we've had a two girl scene. I know it's hard to keep this stuff fresh, but you certainly are trying....
|Jun 9, 2002
My problem is that every shot still looks the same, There is really no good close-ups on how tight things are and the gigling drives me insane. I would really like to see some fear coming out as to what the hell am I doing here and how am getting out of this situation. It would also be nice if the girls didn't start out naked or half naked like they are pros. Why is this so damn hard? I would love to see a two girl scene where they have gotten into a lot more than they have bargained for and no damn tatoos. Good looking innocent girls who don't act like they want to be there. Thanks 1tyler you are on the right track. You guys are too but you could do so much better but it still seem like you are going through the motions. Please don't make me go into detail, this week lets have a good update.
|Apr 26, 2002
Damn, Guys all this crap is starting to look the same. Please try to get some original thinking going as I have no intention of renewing my subscribtion. Madison
|Jan 14, 2002
It seems lately that all of the shoots look the same, You could be so much more creative.
|Nov 17, 2001
I love them totally nude and gagged with lots of DROOOOOL.....
|Nov 8, 2001
This is one of the hottest scenes ever, do more two girl bondages.
|Dec 6, 2001
Why not more scenes with the stocks, Why are these girls always tied in a stationary position? I think to totally naked women with the exception of say a ballgag, maybe stockings, a nice thick cpllar, and their hands cuffed behind their back along with a regular pair of handcuffs on their ankles, trying to escape would be hot as hell.
|Nov 8, 2001
Why don't you get her to use this penis gag on one of her tied up girlfriends

I haven't forgotten any detail about that day — not the snow outside piling up by the door, or the smell of the forced air-heat, or the ringing of the church bells down the street. I was in the red room seated at a bar stool, and Cannon was on the sofa, wrapped in a burgundy sweatshirt. We were talking about our script.
"Gangsters made their own rules, and they stood by them," I said.
"And, they lived the largeness of life; beyond limitations," Cannon added as his arms accentuated his words. "I wish I was one sometimes."
"I know what you mean, but I'm very happy you are who you are," I added. I glanced off to the distance. "Why would you want to be a gangster?"
"I wouldn't know fear, not like I know it," he said.
"What are you afraid of?" I asked.
"Strangers and the motives they don't reveal," he answered.
Cannon's legs were crossed, and one arm stretched over the back of the sofa. His eyes were on me, like two soft spotlights. His feelings filled the pupils of his eyes.
"I think we need to keep our relationship on a professional level," I said.
"I'll respect whatever you choose; if this is it then I'll accept that. Your friendship is very important to me," he added. "I hope you know that."
An hour passed, we drank espresso, and then moved to the kitchen. I was fidgeting with a dish sponge.
"Can I give you a hug?" he asked. It was the first time he'd asked, over the last six months. We are writing partners, we are blending fiction and non-fiction into a screenplay.
Like leaves rustled from their branches, layer upon layer of self-preservation shed as effortlessly as sand between my toes, and deeper I sank, until my legs trembled. Does that really happen? Yes, it happened.
Our lips met, and I collapsed into his abyss, his arms and hands caressed my face, and my knees buckled. I'd seen this moment in movies, and dreamt of it so many times.
Cannon's physical strength seized the fragility of my passion, but with the tenderness of stroking a sick child, as if he knew my sickness.
He slipped his hand beneath the folds of my sweater, and my eyes closed, immediately. In the darkness, his fingers, smooth as silk fabric, tapped, like a kitten's paw the curves, dips, the bones. My eyes opened, to his moss-brown pupils, and soared with his eyes, into a path, into the sudden elapse of time. The powdery blue walls of the kitchen dripped, the wood beneath our feet turned to liquid. In the moisture of our tongues, our mouths devoured the insides of hungry sexes, mouths thirsty for pleasure and assurance.
I am sliding into a man, after the longest period of solitaire. It has been seven or eight years. A woman stops counting just as she stops noticing the creases and lines. It was when he touched my back that he started to unravel me, like a ball of yarn tossed from the hand. The force came from his fingers, his hands, his whispers. Lightly stroking my back, the marrow of my backbone, the moles and freckles, the back that I hate and guard in one-piece bathing suits, turtlenecks, and the back I hide.
"I love your back," he whispered. His voice crawled into my bones, and my nerves awakened the dead wood of my sensuality. Years, too many to count, at least 10, I endured the unfulfilled hollow of physical love. This primitive eruption. It was as if I was running through the rainbow of ecstasy, at the moment of abandoning myself into the folds of his skin. My breasts, my head, my belly, my sex. The turtleneck sweater dropped to the floor. A powdery dusk past, a chorus of clouds sailed by the window… transforming the sky into steely grey… all light vanished.
I took Cannon's hand in mine and led him upstairs. Beneath the faded pink sheets, I tossed and scratched, eagerly, selfishly, violently. I tugged at his skin, murmured, and inhaled, while he parted my body in two halves, and stroked the bud of me.
"Ride the wave," he whispered in my ear.
"How beautiful and soft you are, God you feel like silk in my arms."

In the final paragraph, suggest they call you for
a meeting, and provide your phone numbers and e-mail -- even if
they're also at the top of the letter. Or show a little extra moxie
and say you'll be calling them in the next week to set up an interview.
Then do it.
User-friendly letters
You can accomplish all of this by creating a
user-friendly cover letter. That means keeping it short and sweet,
like four to five paragraphs. Certainly no more than one page.
Your cover letter is not the place to go into exhaustive
detail about your experience cataloguing ancient Korean pottery
or that Pentagon internship during the Gulf War. Touch on relevant
topics. You can regale them with your stories during the interview.
"Try to think of three main things you want the employer
to know," McKinney advises. She suggests a breakdown such as this:

About the Artwork
All the artwork you will see on this site I have created. Before meditation, I had this mental tape that I was not an artist. And only artists did artwork. However, as I began to watch my thoughts and come to that Awareness that is beyond all definitions and judgments, I became free to explore and experiment. Like my writing, my art seeks to bring about a peaceful sense of mind for the viewer and to activate one's spiritual imagination. Most of the images in my paintings arise out of playing with colors and being in a receptive state. Out of the formless comes form.

Life is hectic, it doesn't always allow for you to have freedom. This can influence how your workouts go. Most of the time you plan to do a 45 minute workout hoping to reach their fitness goals. However, like I said earlier, life is hectic. There are points where you can not reach the full workout that you want. In those cases what do you do? How do you reach your fitness goals in half the time?
When life is bombarding you with social events, family obligations, and work schedules, you need to shorten your work out and intensify that workout at the same time. Your movements should become complex movements that will allow you to hit the most muscle groups at once. This will deliver a little more bang for your buck when it comes to intensity. Good example movements for this would be the Pushup(which is the best movement for overall fitness), or the Squat if you like to work with your own body weight.
When adding weights, the best route to follow would be complexes. This can be done with dumbbells or barbells. You take a couple movements and add it into a small routine. An example would be Squat and Press, followed by a Lunge and Curl, finishing with Bent over Rows. When doing these complexes you should aim for 8 reps in each position and shoot for three to four rounds. Of course have a resting period between each round to allow your body to recover.
Another route to use when it comes to quick fitness is to aim for what is called AMRAP. This is a concept where you take a few moves at set reps and try to complete as many rounds as possible within the time limits. A good example would be to do an AMRAP with 15 pushups, 20 squats, 10 burpees. This will work your upper body,core, lower body, and cardio all within a short period of time.
Don't let life take you down when you get busy. You can take a few moves an incorporate an amazing intense workout. Just remember to always push yourself and your busy schedule won't impede with your fitness goals!

Fingerhuth tallied two second-half goals in Saturday's 9-0 victory over the Mountain Hawks, and scored the Eagles' final two goals, including the game-winner, in the victory against the Tigers Sunday. Fingerhuth's tallies gave the Eagles a 3-0 halftime lead over Princeton before they held on for the 3-2 win.

After playing all but the last 10 minutes of a 9-0 victory over Lehigh Saturday, Weitzman held the nation's highest-scoring offense in check with the seven saves Sunday. She faced 22 shots overall and nine on goal, and helped the Eagles hold on to a 3-0 halftime lead despite being outshot 16-0 in the second half. Weitzman receives her second Goalkeeper of the Week award in the past three weeks.

Patriot League Weekly Men's Soccer Awards
BRINE Offensive Player of the Week

The Bison went 2-0 during the week, and Plump was a catalyst in both matches. He came off the bench to tally Bucknell's game-winning goal in double overtime to defeat Drexel 2-1, which snapped the Bison's four-match losing streak. In Saturday's League opener, he scored his club's insurance goal in the 72nd minute of a 2-0 victory over Navy. Two of Plump's three goals on the year are game-winners.
BRINE Defensive Player of the Week
KEVIN STRUNK, LEHIGH Jr., D, Downingtown, Pa.
Strunk made a game-saving play for the Mountain Hawks in their tight 1-0 victory over archrival Lafayette Saturday. Four minutes after Lehigh had taken the lead in the 76th minute, Lafayette's Stephen Macurdy took a shot off a scramble in front of the Mountain Hawks' net. With Lehigh keeper Jonathan Nydell out of position, Strunk was able to make the defensive save and clear the ball out of danger to preserve his team's lead.
BRINE Goalkeeper of the Week
MARC HARTMANN, BUCKNELL Jr., GK, Bradenton, Fla.
Hartmann posted a 2-0 week for the Bison. His first victory was in his team's 2-1 double-overtime win over Drexel, where he gave up one goal and stopped three to keep his team in the game. His biggest save of the contest came on a point-blank opportunity for the Dragons with 12 seconds left in regulation to preserve the tie. Hartmann added a stop in overtime as well. He followed up that performance with two saves in his club's 2-0 shutout of Navy in Lewisburg Saturday. The Mids came into that contest averaging a League-high 2.6 goals per match.
BRINE Rookie of the Week
DAVE ARNOLD, NAVY Fr., F, Baltimore, Md.
Arnold notched two goals and four points during a 1-1 week for the Midshipmen. His offensive output came in a 4-0 victory over George Washington, as the Mids struck early in the second half against the Colonials and ran away with the contest the rest of the way. Arnold's two goals came just three minute apart in the opening stages of the second half of Wednesday night's contest, with the first one counting as the eventual game-winner. Arnold's 12 points are the most for a Navy freshman since Michael Paisant had 14 in 1997.
Honorable Mentions
JON WERTH, HOLY CROSS Sr., F, University Park, Md.
Werth notched two goals and an assist for five points for the Crusaders, including the team's game-winning goal in double overtime in a 4-3 decision against Albany.

Miller posted four saves in the Raiders' 1-0 shutout of Holy Cross Saturday afternoon. It was his fourth clean sheet of the year.
Patriot League Weekly Women's Soccer Awards
BRINE Offensive Player of the Week
PALOMA PEREZ, NAVY Fr., F, Bossier City, La.
The Midshipmen are playing some of their best soccer of the season, and last week Paloma Perez was a big reason for her team's success. She scored two goals and added two assists for six points in a pair of Navy wins. She scored the insurance goal in the Mids' 2-0 win over Colgate in both teams' League opener, then added a pair of goals and two helpers in the 6-0 shutout of Delaware State. She moved into a tie for the team lead with five goals and is third on the squad with 12 points.
BRINE Defensive Player of the Week
JULIA STALLARD, ARMY Jr., D, Colleyville, Texas
Stallard pitched in a strong defensive effort for the Black Knights as they posted back-to-back 1-0 shutouts over the weekend. She led Army's defense in Friday's Patriot League opener against Lehigh, as the Black Knights held the Mountain Hawks without a shot on goal in the first half and four for the game. She pitched in offensively as well, assisting on Lindsay Gordon's goal in the sixth minute of overtime in the victory. In Sunday's win over Penn, she anchored an Army defense that yielded only three shots on goal.
BRINE Goalkeeper of the Week
LAUREN SMEDLEY, LAFAYETTE So., GK, Hamilton, N.J.
Smedley went 1-0-1 during the week with two shutouts. Her first was a 1-0 victory at Delaware St. in which she stopped seven shots. In Saturday's League opener at Holy Cross, she made eight saves to keep the Crusaders off the board in a scoreless tie. It was the fifth and sixth shutouts of the year, which gives her the most clean sheets in a season for a Leopard keeper. She now has 10 career blankings, which is the all-time best at Lafayette.
BRINE Rookie of the Week
KIM AN, ARMY Fr., M, Oak Ridge, N.J.
An scored her eighth goal of the season and the four game-winner of her young career in Army's 1-0 victory over Penn Sunday afternoon. Her eight tallies are tied for ninth-most in Academy history for a freshman and are the most since 2002. Her goal helped spark Army to a 2-0 record for the week, as the Black Knights recorded a 1-0 victory over Lehigh Friday evening to open League competition.
Honorable Mentions

"Jungle Terminator," the second episode of "River Monsters" Season Six aired on Animal Planet on Sunday night. It certainly showcased Jeremy Wade's other area of expertise aside from fishing: sociology. As the storyline involved the devastating effects of an encounter with an electric eel, Wade went in pursuit of a very isolated tribe of Amazon Indians called the Matis who are known to be immune to the power of the electric eel and even use it for food. This episode was especially culturally educational.
The electric eel is very dangerous and even deadly. According to National Geographic, they can discharge electricity at five times the amount of an American wall socket. Repeated exposure can cause a person's heart or breathing to stop, but deaths are rare and usually involve a drowning after being shocked. Extreme angler Jeremy Wade was quite fascinated with stories he had heard of the Matis and their ability to remain unaffected.
It was a long and dangerous journey to reach the Matis, and Wade was visibly apprehensive and unable to sleep along the way. The isolated tribes of the Amazon are not always so glad to see strangers. Finding this Indian tribe who had a secret for remaining immune to electric eels was no easy feat. "River Monsters'" brave host was doing the work of a sociologist as he allowed the viewers to catch a glimpse of a people and a culture rarely seen where the men have big tusks inserted in their nostrils!
There was an almost comical recurring scene through the part of the show when Wade was fishing with the Matis fisherman in an odd little flat boat. The camera kept panning to a woman dressed in what appeared to be American clothing, probably the wife of the fisherman. She was sitting there precariously at the side of the boat holding a rather large infant watching everything with obvious curiosity.
Another candid glimpse into the Matis Indian tribe was provided during the ceremony where the fishermen were being "immunized" against the electric eels. The application of some kind of poison with a hot stick into the upper arm was actually reminiscent of a traditional inoculation. The show left the viewer to try to solve the mystery of how and why by themselves.

James Kalm visits the exhibition Xstraction at The Hole, New York. The exhibition features work by 32 contemporary abstract painters.
The press release states that the show examines trends in "textile-based and 'craftstraction'", paintings influenced by "digital aesthetics," "trodden-upon, dirtied, worn out or even 'entropic' abstraction," and "un-painterly abstraction" in the works of a younger generation of painters.
Kalm's video walkthrough looks at "commonalities and techniques employed by this generation of artists. Includes views of works by: Adam Henry, Andrew Sutherland, Angel Otero, Anoka Faruqee, Chris Johanson, Cory Arcangel, Gerhard Richter, Kadar Brock, Mark Flood, Sam Moyer, Thomas Øvilsen, Trudy Benson, Wade Guyton, Wendy White, Xylor Jane."

Despite mixed reviews, the Ashton Kutcher thriller "The Butterfly Effect" flew into first place over the weekend on estimated grosses of $17.1 million. After conquering the small screen on "That '70s Show" and "Punk'd," the #1 debut of the time-travel drama bodes well for Kutcher's leading-man prospects, adding to his success in last January's romantic comedy "Just Married," which opened to almost
identical first-week grosses.
Last week's #1 movie saw a 40 percent sales drop-off, as the Ben Stiller/ Jennifer Aniston comedy "Along Came Polly" dipped to #2 on estimated grosses of $16.6 million, bringing its two-week total to $53.5 million. Kutcher's "That '70s Show" castmate Topher Grace couldn't pull them in like Demi's beau; his romantic comedy, "Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!" — co-starring Kate Bosworth and Josh Duhamel — debuted at #3 on grosses of $7.5 million.
Tim Burton's "Big Fish" slipped to #4 on grosses of $7.3 million, followed by "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King," which took in an estimated $6.8 million — as well as four Golden Globes Sunday night (see"Third Time's A Charm For 'Lord Of The Rings' At Golden Globes" ).
Last week's #4 movie, the Ice Cube motorcycle drama "Torque," saw a nearly 56 percent dip as it skidded to #8 on grosses of $4.4 million in its second weekend in theaters. With three Screen Actors Guild Award nominations, as well as a Golden Globe best-actor win for Sean Penn, "Mystic River" had an 844 percent uptick in business as it added more than 1,100 theaters, grossing $3.1 million to land at #10.
Rounding out the top 10 are "Cheaper By the Dozen" at #6 with $6.6 Million, "Cold Mountain" at #7 with $5 million and "Something's Gotta Give" at #9 with $4.1 million.
The top 12 movies grossed $83.5 million, putting the weekend's take about four percent above the same period last year, when the top 12 brought in $80 million.

Patrick Roy, arguably the greatest goaltender of all time, called it quits Wednesday afternoon during a press conference at the Pepsi Center in Denver.
"I feel great about my decision," Roy said Wednesday after announcing his retirement. "I really feel like I emptied the tank and I'm ready to move on. I step aside with no regrets."
At 37 years old, Roy is still considered one of the league's top netminders. He posted the a career-best regular-season just two years ago. However, he preferred to go out while he still was on top of his game.
"It's always been important for me to play with consistency, but also leave on my own terms," said Roy. "I think I've accomplished everything I wanted and I think I've done basically what I think I should."
Roy said he made the decision to retire before the start of this NHL season. He made the announcement of his retirement a press conference attended by his wife and three children, as well as Avalanche coach Tony Granato and teammates Mike Keane, Joe Sakic and Brad Larsen.
Roy is a four-time Stanley Cup champion, twice with Montreal and twice with Colorado. He won the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP three times and holds NHL records for wins and games played by a netminder.
I've had a blast. It's been unbelievable. I've been so fortunate to have lived a dream and have fun for more than 18 years earning a living by playing a game I love," said Roy, who alternated between speaking in English and French as he answered questions from both Denver and Montreal.
Roy spent the first ten years of his career with the Canadiens before he was traded to Colorado in the middle of his eleventh season. After eighteen years in the NHL, Roy has no immediate plans to take a management role for an NHL team but says he's open to the idea. For now he plans on moving his family back to Quebec.
Notes: Pierre Lacroix, Avalanche general manager, announced that Roy's No. 33 jersey will be retired by the Avalanche next season. It will be the second number retired by the Avs since their move to Denver from Quebec. Colorado retired Ray Bourque's No. 77 during the 2001-2002 season.
