Ki eager to impress
by Stuart Vose
New boy looking to contribute at both ends of the field.
Ki Sung-Yueng is eager to make a good first impression having secured a season-long loan move to the Stadium of Light.
The 24-year-old central midfielder has joined the Black Cats from Swansea and has already played more than 100 games in British football as well as winning 51 caps for his native South Korea.
"I'm very pleased to join Sunderland," he said. "I have heard a lot of good things about the club and I am looking forward to playing here."
Speaking after the signing was confirmed, head coach Paolo Di Canio cited Ki's technical quality, ability to get forward and range of passing as key factors behind the move.
The South Korean scored 11 goals during an 18-month spell at Celtic and says he's comfortable getting stuck in at either end of the field.
"My strength is keeping the ball and getting it to the forwards; I like to join in the attack too," he said.
"It doesn't really matter – I can go from defence to attack and maybe do both. I have a lot of confidence with that.
"The first game is very important for me and for the team as well."
Ki is one of 13 new arrivals at the Stadium of Light this summer, having sealed his loan moe in the build-up to transfer deadline day.
He was a regular at Swansea last season, playing 38 games and picking up a Capital One Cup winners' medal.
However, he has found opportunities harder to come by this season and was eager to grab the chance to go out on loan.
With the Black Cats remodelling their squad over the summer, competition for places is high but Ki says such a challenge is one to be embraced.
"I played many games last season and I think I did well – we won the cup and did well in the league," he explained.
"I want to play some games and show my quality to the people.
"Of course, there always is competition and I think we need that otherwise the quality will drop. I enjoy competition."

Nov. 3, 2004
By Jeff Honza
CARBONDALE, Ill. - Southern Illinois' women's cross country team placed six student-athletes on the 2004 Missouri Valley Conference women's Scholar-Athlete Team, the most of any league school since 1992.
Twelve years ago, the MVC began honoring its cross country runners for their athletic and academic excellence. In 1992 and 1993, there were two teams - first and second -- consisting of at least 25 members combined. Indiana State had six honorees in '92.
Following those years, the first and second squads merged into one team of 10 to 16 members in 1994, and for the last 10 seasons, the most scholar-athletes any conference school had was four (INS in 1994; SMS in 2002).
Senior Noa Beitler (3.88 grade point average, Industrial Design) and sophomores Katie Birn (3.62 GPA, Physician Assisting), Brittani Christensen (3.37 GPA, Health Education), Sarah Rinker (3.81 GPA, Social Work), Cherylynn Schilling (4.0 GPA, Engineering) and Lindsay Wagner (3.79 GPA, Elementary Education) dominate the 16-member women's team. For Beitler, the honor marks the second of her career.
On the men's side, Eli Baker garnered MVC academic honors for the third year in a row. A senior from nearby Marion, Ill., Baker carries a 3.32 GPA as an Education major.

Clinique Moisture Surge CC Cream Hydrating Colour Corrector Broad Spectrum SPF 30
I am a big fan of anything that can make my daily routine quicker and easier and this cream fulfils that need to perfection.
It is easy to apply, it is lightweight - though it is has a thick consistency, which makes it easy to know that you have applied it evenly. It has a fresh summery scent that is delicate and invigorating and best of all it makes your skin tone, even, radiant and glowing. I was really impressed.
I love how it only takes a couple of minutes to apply and roughly 5 minutes after applying, your skin appears radiantly teenage (without the blemishes).
I tried it under make-up and it made my usual foundation smoother and stay on for longer, but I also tried it without and overall I would say wearing this cream, removes the need for foundation. It looks great without and it feels so natural that you forget you have it on.
I would highly recommend this cream. It leaves your skin feeling soft and looking fantastic and best of all it shortened my routine, which is a must when you have twins constantly tugging at you, asking you to come play. This has become a permanent addition to my daily routine.
(I used the very light cream).

This sweet fur boy needs help with an unexpected vet bill, Facebook reported February 18.
Orangello is a beautiful 18-month-old orange and white boy who was adopted through a rescue by Shelly Brock. She fell in love with him on site, and has devoted her life to giving Orangello a forever home.
A few nights ago, Orangello became sick, and Shelly had to rush him to an emergency vet. This poor baby was screaming and howling in pain, and the vet had to keep him overnight. Orangello was given fluids and a catheter, and was diagnosed with a blocked urethra.
Orangello is now at his regular vet, where he must to remain until Thursday for continued medication and to allow the inflammation to subside. His catheter can't be removed until his condition improves. His total care will run near $700 after both vets are paid.
Not only will Shelly have to deal with the vet bill, Orangello will have to go on an expensive special diet to prevent a recurrence.
Shelly is well known in the rescue world in upstate South Carolina. She's administrator over the Pets Lost and Found of Upstate SC, where she devotes a good bit of her time helping reunite lost dogs and cats (and an occasional bird) with their owners. Not only is she an animal advocate, Shelly works as a firefighter, and is also a single parent to three children.
A GoFundMe donation webpage has been set up here. Please donate if you can, and share her story with others. Every dollar helps, and any over payment can be used for the expensive food Orangello will need to remain healthy.

There is no real reason to attempt a comparison between sake and wine. Each are their own universe and deserve to be evaluated on their own terms. Leaving aside for a moment the radically different methods of their making, sake and wine are different enough that comparisons tend to introduce more confusion than clarity to any particular effort to make a point.
Nonetheless, I continue to draw parallels between wine and sake if only to explain sake in terms that most wine lovers can understand. My latest angle at helping wine lovers make sense of sake comes in the form of a comparison with non-vintage Champagne.
When champagne houses make their non-vintage cuvees, their goal, which many admirably achieve, is perfect consistency from year to year. With a great deal of care, painstaking blending of base wines with reserve wines, and consistent maturation processes, the best champagne houses manage to produce wines that may not have the the signature of a specific vintage or place, but are nonetheless unmistakable in their individuality and highly predictable in their quality.
Sake breweries are in a remarkably similar position. They seek to achieve consistency in flavor from year to year, even when producing very high volumes of sake. In the service of such a dedication they employ carefully home grown strains of the koji mold, genetically consistent rice varieties and yeasts, and very specific sources of spring water, not to mention brewing techniques.
In the wine world, producers take pains to develop points of differentiation which they believe signify the quality of their product. Some might brag about the length of aging that their wines undergo, others might mention the incredibly low crop yields of their vineyards, while still others might talk about their meticulous processes. In the extremely complex process of sake brewing, there is a lot one might brag about, but perhaps one of the key points of differentiation among some of the top sakes of the world has to do with one of the most expensive and easily quantifiable aspects of making sake: the milling of rice.
Readers who are more familiar with sake will remember that the degree of milling or polishing of the rice kernels used to make sake is the primary way of distinguishing between different quality grades of sake. The higher the degree of polishing, the higher the quality of sake, and broadly speaking, the more expensive it is. To qualify for ginjo status, a sake must have been made from rice polished down to at least 60% of its original mass. To qualify for daiginjo status, the highest standard quality designation, the rice used must have been polished down to at least 50% of its original mass.
Beyond these basic quality level requirements, the actual degree of polishing is left up to the brewery, and as one might expect, there are those who take the process to its logical extreme. The complexities and expense of polishing rice grains (already small to begin with) to consistently smaller sizes than required has become the luxury (or the fanatacism of some breweries).
As a measure of its quality, the refinement of its production, and its pedigree, I ask you to marvel at the fact that this sake is made from rice polished to the point that each grain is a mere 23% of its original size. In purely practical terms, this means that millions of rice kernels have been "sanded" consistently across their entire surfaces until all that is left is the tiniest center of the rice kernel -- a bit of pure starch smaller than the head of a pin.
To a certain extent, this is nearly insane. I know of only one other sake in the world whose rice is milled to a greater extent (to a mere 14% of its original mass). On the other hand, I can say that the producers of all the best things I have put in my mouth have each posessed their own special breed of insanity.
The brand name Dassai means "Otter Festival," a moniker chosen for its clever double meaning. Made in Yamaguchi prefecture, known for its rivers where otters used to frolick, the sake's name references an occasional theme in ancient poems that would refer to these congregations of creatures as "otter festivals." Additionally, however, a famous 19th century poet named Masaoka Shiki adopted the name Dassai because of his propensity to scatter his reading material all over the floor, just as otters are famous for scattering fish parts everywhere as they feed. Masaoka is respected for both his playful nature, but also his role in transforming modern Japanese literature and poetry. He is also widely acknowledged to have invented the term haiku that we now use to describe the traditional Japanese poetic form.
So this sake attempts to embody a poetic ideal, not of perfection, but of some combination of the playful and the profound. Whether it achieves such a balance is for you to judge.
Tasting Notes:
Clear and viscous in the glass, this sake smells of sweet cucumber, green melon, and rainwater. In the mouth it is beautifully silky and smooth with flavors of honeydew, jasmine, with hints of alpine strawberry and cedar on its clean, airy finish. This sake manages to offer two often contradictory elements - delicate flavors and aromas and big bodied texture and presence on the palate. It is both distinctive and arresting, and incredibly easy to drink.
Food Pairing:
I had this tonight with a fresh steamed fish with ginger, soy sauce, and scallions, and it was a lovely companion.
Overall Score: 9.5
How Much?: $78
This sake is available for purchase on the internet.

Kim Hawkins, Christian Life Coach
Hello, I'm Kim.
I grew up in an unusual family composed of five kids, both parents and my grandmother. Yes, I grew up with clutter of all kinds which led me to where i am today. I'm the one who encourages everyone to lead a clutter free life in all aspects–physically, mentally, and spiritually. I came to the realization that things are just things and it's the relationships that truly matter.
How I Became a Christian Life Coach
After working for others, then working for myself, I decided it was time to do what God intended for me to do–which is serve others. I was juggling through emotions of being a newlywed at the age of forty-something, a failed business venture with my husband, relocation from Florida to Texas, and what seemed like suddenly, I became overwhelmed and stuck. I knew something had to change.
My desire to help others eliminate clutter stemmed from my own struggle with it. I'm a certified Christian life coach. I work specifically with Christian women and my niche is de-cluttering to attain a healthy mind, body and spirit. I have received training and certification as a Christian life coach through the Professional Christian Coaching and Counseling Academy.
Why Christian Life Coaching?
Because Christians are misunderstood in today's society. Being a Christian doesn't mean we don't face the same challenges and difficulties as non-believers. Being in this world but not of it, isn't easy. My work experience is varied and it is through a combination of all of those experiences that I come to you with the first hand experience of tackling clutter. Now, don't misunderstand what clutter is. We aren't talking about tackling the next person to be featured on an episode of A & E's "Hoarders"; we're talking about everyday people like you and me. Those who have stuff! Clutter is anything which no longer serves you. I am here to serve the Lord by serving you as a client in making the best life choices which will deepen your relationship with God and help you to rely on His guidance and His timing, not man-made ingenuity.
Some people refer to finding their calling as their "aha" moment, I refer to mine as B.I.N.G.O.–Begin In New Godly Order! TM
Mission Statement:
To compel my clients to act on faith to find their God inspired passion, purpose and vision while building on the cornerstone of their own weakness (clutter) supported by the firm foundation of God's Word. His promises and the constant presence of the Holy Spirit. I want my clients shouting E.U.R.E.K.A. (Everyone Under Righteousness Enjoys King's Allowance)TM after working through their sessions with me. The upright in Spirit reap the harvest.
I Was My First "Official" Client
One thing I have always done for family, friends and co-workers is figure out step-by-step instructions. I enjoy working through the steps to get to an end result. I also know there's more than one way to skin a cat and one-size does not fit all. So, why not answer my calling by making it my work?
I know that the removal of clutter opens space in life for authentic living. In a cluttered environment, we exist but it's difficult to breathe.
Aside from my Christian life coaching course, I have taken college psychology courses. I continue to study everything I can get my hands on about clutter and the nature of clutter. I have learned, tested and applied techniques personally. I have made epic and miniscule changes in my life, home and office.
My end result? Clarity. Aside from not having piles of unfinished business surrounding me, the fog in my mind was lifted. I could literally and figuratively feel the sunshine again! Feeling this good was too good not to share with others.
What I Gave Up
I didn't give up anything that did not need to go. Combining two adult lives into one life and living space had its challenges. The blessings that have followed are priceless.
By letting go of pieces of our past we made more room for things to come. I received in exchange renewed self-esteem, increased productivity, learned some simplified cleaning methods, better time management and the get-up-and-go to do the things I like to do in life. I want you to have this too!
How Can I Serve You?
If you're tired of the rollercoaster ride caused physical, mental and spiritual clutter, then I'm at your service for guidance, encouragement and accountability!
I provide Christian life coaching that is thoroughly Christ-centered and glorifies God. Through accountability, encouragement and powerful questions and prayer, I will help lead you to fulfilling your God-given purpose while you eliminate the clutter in your life.

I'm looking for a PPA for Ruby 1.9.2 for Lucid Lynx, and I've noticed that there's a couple of them. Is it possible to determine which one is more commonly used, and therefore more likely to be error-free?
The important thing to remember is that anyone can register a PPA. The main question you need to ask yourself is do you trust the PPA's owner. The level of trust needed depends on the package and what you hope to do with it. I might trust a PPA for an indicator based on the recommendation of a blog that I follow, but I'd want to know a lot more about the PPA owner if I were looking to upgrade X on my desktop or Ruby on a production server.
You should look at the PPA's owner on Launchpad. Is it team maintainer? What else is the owner involved with? Is the owner involved with the software upstream? Is the owner an Ubuntu developer?
Remember when you add a PPA to your sources, the main concern isn't the installation of a single package, it's that you are more or less giving the PPA root access to your machine through the ability to push updates.
Though it works the other way as well. Is the owner still actively providing security updates? foo 1.0 in Lucid might be a bit old, but at least it is still receiving security updates. foo 1.2 from Joe Bob's PPA might be more recent, but if a security bug is found to affect both version is he going to provide an update? Check their Lauchpad profile to make sure they are at least active.
Here's a scary story. I was investigating a PPA to possibly recommend to you for getting Ruby 1.9.2 on Lucid. Unfortunately one seeming popular one I came across is run by an "open" team. Team membership confers upload right to the team's PPA. As it now stands, someone could potentially join the team and upload a compromised version of the software in the PPA at anytime.
First you check what is available in the official repositories.
I performed the search and found that there is only one version of Ruby available (in
There are unofficial ones that people compile code to and stick up for anyone (brave enough) to use but the official and (probably better tested) version is the one in http://packages.ubuntu.com/ - which you can access via synaptic. I wouldn't touch the other PPAs for production systems.
The short answer seems to be that the only supported version of Ruby at the moment on Ubuntu is 1.8. Don;t touch 1.9.1 with a barge-poll if you're using Rails - there's even a message on the Rails homepage to that effect.

Alice v CLS will be argued before the Supreme Court on March 31, 2014.
As reported by Lyle Denniston of Scotusblog, the Supreme Court has just released its oral arguments schedule for March, 2014. The Supreme Court schedule indicates that Alice v CLS will be heard on Monday, March 31.
What is being argued
Alice holds patents to a "system" that reduces transactional risk between traders in multiple time zones. The patents are typical of those criticized for taking a well known idea and simply applying it on a computer in a fairly general fashion. CLS argues that the invention is not patentable subject matter under Section 101 of the Patent Act while Alice holds that it is.
Critically, the district court ruled the patents invalid on a summary judgment basis. If this sort of approach is upheld, it could mean that software patents, particularly weaker ones, could be disposed of quickly and cheaply in litigation, before expensive processes like discovery have been completed. As such, this would be a potent defensive weapon.
A tortured history
Much like the entire body of jurisprudence surrounding software patents, the litigation history of the case is a tortured one. The case began in District Court in Washington D.C. In a preemptive move, probably because Alice was attempting to shake CLS down for money, CLS sued Alice for summary judgment of invalidity. Alice promptly countersued CLS for infringement. The District Court Judge Collyer found the patents invalid and issued summary judgment in favor of CLS.
The case was appealed to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC). As academics have noted, and as was recently highlighted by the Wall Street Journal, the CAFC was formed under the Carter Administration with the idea of promoting invention and patents. As evidenced by the steady drumbeat of patent battles hitting the news virtually daily, and the steady drumbeat of shakedown letters reaching the in-boxes of executives at newly successful Silicon Valley start-ups, that court's parochial, pro-patent rulings have generated catastrophic results.
A three member CAFC panel reversed Judge Collyer, awarding a victory to Alice. But that victory was short-lived for Alice. After a request from CLS, and after repeated reversals and remands by the Supreme Court on subject matter eligibility, the CAFC agreed to rehear the case en banc.
The full court ruled in favor of CLS. But the decision was so fractured that there was no legally binding precedent generated. Indeed, shortly after the CAFC decision, two members of the minority in CLS essentially ignored the approach taken in that case, and generated a 2-1 victory in favor of the subject matter eligibility of a patent for a "system" that serves up content in return for sitting through an advertisement. That case, WildTangent v Ultramercial, was also appealed to the Supreme Court.
The case appealed to SCOTUS
Alice then went on to appeal to the Supreme Court (SCOTUS). Because of the enormous amount of uncertainty surrounding software patents, numerous amicus briefs were filed arguing that one or both of the Alice v CLS and Wiltangent v Ultramercial cases be taken up.
On December 6, SCOTUS agreed to hear Alice v CLS. And as reported by the Examiner, on the following Monday, SCOTUS held WildTangent v Ultramercial back until it decides Alice this Spring.
The significance for Silicon Valley
Intellectual property risk, particularly patent risk, is consuming an ever increasing amount of executive time and corporate resources in Silicon Valley. Executives must devote careful attention to intellectual property risk management. Various efforts are underway including individual and collective defensive patent aggregation, joint defense agreements, and the purchase of patent insurance.
Additionally, Silicon Valley business leaders are focusing increasing attention on Washington. In addition to reform efforts underway in the Congress, leaders hear are watching cases like Alice v CLS intently.
The Examiner is following high-profile software patent litigation and patent reform efforts closely. We plan to report further on both in the coming months.

Tampa native Joe Lala has had a truly amazing music and acting career. He helped form the group Blues Image in 1966, and later scored a huge hit with "Ride Captain Ride" in 1970. He was also a member of Stephen Stills incredible band Manassas, and the blues rock band PG&E. And that was just the beginning.
Joe Lala died Tuesday morning of complications from stage 4 lung cancer. Joe had told me that he was undergoing chemotherapy treatments in our last conversation. Frank Turano his personal assistant said, "His first round of Chemo went well and then there was a break in between before they started the second round. He was doing very well; he didn't lose his hair and had a good appetite and the cancer shrunk during the third round. Then in between it grew again with vengeance and he never recovered from that." He passed away at St. Joseph's Hospital in Tampa.
Recently, I had invited Joe to meet me in Venice, Florida to hang out with an old friend of his drummer Corky Laing (Mountain) and then again to attend John Mayall's 80th Birthday concert in Sarasota. But I didn't realize how sick he really was because Joe was always so upbeat and positive. Joe had been doing session work in Nashville and remained musically active before he got ill.
Joe was one hundred percent Sicilian but spoke Spanish fluently. If you didn't know about his Italian heritage you'd swear he was Cuban, but that may be because of his Ybor City roots. My mother is Cuban so hanging out and chatting with Joe was always like being with family. He was very proud of his seemingly endless accomplishments in life. He was a sweet and caring man with a sensational sense of humor. It was a privilege to know him. Joe was very close to his mom and had been caring for her until she died earlier this year at 98.
Joe Lala became a session percussionist and has been credited on such recordings as Jackson Browne's, "Hold Out", David Crosby, "Oh Yes I Can", Crosby, Stills & Nash, "Daylight Again", Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, "American Dream", Dave Mason, "Some Assembly Required", McGuinn,Clark & Hillman, Poco, "Crazy Eyes", The Souther, Hillman, Furay Band, Rod Stewart, "A Night On The Town", Stephen Stills, "Stephen Stills Live";"Stills"; "Illegal Stills"; "Right You", Stills and Young, "Long May You Run", Joe Walsh, "The Smoker You Drink, The Player You Get", Dionne Warwick, "Heartbreaker" and Bill Wyman, "Monkey Grip."
Joe also played with Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, The Byrds, Chicago, The Eagles, The Bee Gees, Andy Gibb, The Allman Brothers Band, Rod Stewart, Rick Derringer, Firefall, and so many other legendary artists.
You can view all of Joe Lala's music credits Here.
Lala has accumulated over 32 Gold records and 28 Platinum records.
Then Joe got into acting. Some of his film credits include ... "Active Stealth", "Sugar Hill", "On Deadly Ground", "Deep Sleep", "Havana" with Robert Redford, "Out For Justice", "Marked For Death" "Eyewitness To Murder" and "Born In East L. A."
His TV credits include ... "Ali an American Hero", "Miami Vice", "For Love or Country" The Arturo Sandoval Story, "General Hospital", "Melrose Place", "Seinfeld", "Hunter", and "Who's The Boss."
Lala had told me … "I have to check my ID every morning to see who I am."
I thought it was only fitting to repost an interview I did with Joe back in 2011. During our interview …I spent a wonderful laid-back Friday afternoon with Joe and his two Dachshunds inside his Tampa condo. He said his dogs were great companions.
Ray Shasho: So Joe, you really got your barbers license after you graduated from Jefferson high school?
Joe Lala: "Yea, in 1966, I was playing music at night and cutting hair during the day. I went to Tampa Barber College."
Ray Shasho: Then you, Mike Pinera, "Manny" Bertematti, and Malcolm Jones formed Blues Image in Tampa.
Joe Lala: "Yes, then we ran into Frank "Skip" Konte in Norfolk Virginia, he was in a band called Blue Chip Stock."
Ray Shasho: Your first keyboardist Emilio Garcia left the band to become a pilot, is that right?
Joe Lala: "Yea, he works for Bacardi now."
Ray Shasho: The band moved to Miami in 1967, what was that like?
Joe Lala: "Our manager set us up in airplane hangar- type venues like "The World" on Biscayne Blvd.
"We opened for acts like the Doors and Janis Joplin. You know, all those big mothers. When we opened for Cream with Eric Clapton and the Yardbirds with Jimmy Page, they'd go to the promoter and say, how dare you book someone that good before us. (Referring to lead guitarist Mike Pinera of Blues Image) Pinera was intimidating to other guitar players. Clapton told the promoter and came that close to saying he wouldn't go on after Pinera. Mike was at his probable best, he was a monster- guitar player."
"Then Frank Zappa was staying at the Castaways and he told us to come to his room. He said you guys need to get out of here. (Meaning get out of Florida) So we saved our duckets and drove out to LA. When we got there we called Frank and said we're here, okay now what? Later, The Animals manager Kevin Deverich signed us up with Atco records."
Ray Shasho: You had your big hit "Ride Captain Ride" in 1970, and there was a lot of speculation about what the song was really about.
Joe Lala: "Yea man, there were so many interviews that asked if it had anything to do with the Pueblo? Seventy three men on the Pueblo in North Korean waters, and then got busted. The song was about, you're a great band, you have great talent, you're fabulous, but we need a hit record, and we don't hear the cash register. We need something commercial. But the song originated by staring at the seventy-three keys on Frank's Fender Rhodes organ."
(Then Joe began singing…"Seventy-three men sailed up from the San Francisco Bay") Most everything we did was unrehearsed; it was a fabulous jam band."
Ray Shasho: Tell me about the band in LA.
Joe Lala: "We were the house band at a club called "The Experience" on the Sunset Strip."
Ray Shasho: Jimi Hendrix once said that Blues Image was "one of the best up and coming bands around". How well did you know Hendrix?
Joe Lala: "I knew Hendrix quite a bit. Hendrix was a perfect gentleman, and one of the sweetest and nicest guys you ever want to meet. I mean, he was amazing. He didn't want to be what he was made to be. He didn't want a bone through his nose or burn his guitar. We'd have these massive jams at The Experience and everyone would show up. Guys like Johnny Winter, Rick Derringer, and Jimi Hendrix. And all Jimi wanted to do is sit on his f-ing Marshall amp, he would not take center stage, he'd sit back there and put his cigarette between the guitar strings, when it was his turn to play he'd sit there and go man. Jimi had a style and a presence, how do you compare this guy with anybody he was amazing, and an incredibly cool guy."
Ray Shasho: I brought up Robin Trower and Stevie Ray Vaughan's similarities to Hendrix.
Joe Lala: "I was very good friends with Bill Graham, when I heard about that it just broke my heart." (Joe was immediately sent into a somber mood after remembering the helicopter crash that killed promoter Bill Graham)
Ray Shasho: So why did Blues Image break up?
Joe Lala: "Mike was enticed by our former manager to leave the band and join Iron Butterfly. We all said, are you crazy? Then later we all went our separate ways."
Ray Shasho: I heard Iron Butterfly missed an opportunity to play Woodstock because their helicopter never showed up.
Joe Lala: "Blues image was supposed to be at Woodstock too, we took a gig at Binghamton instead. Our manager said there's only one road in and it's going to be raining, you don't want to be there. We said, don't you think it'll be beneficial that we're there?"
Ray Shasho: So you were living in LA, what did you do next?
Joe Lala: "After I left Blues Image, I was with a band called PG & E. They did a song called "Are you ready" and we did a record for CBS. I worked as a session guy around LA and then I got a phone call. I was house-sitting for somebody. The phone rang and the conversation went like this, hi this is Stephen, I'm thinking of putting a band together. I said Stephen who? Stills. I said yea right. We met at the cigarette machine at the Whiskey- a- Go- Go with Dallas, we talked for a minute. I've got this idea about putting a band together, come to my house in Colorado and let's see what happens."
"The Colorado thing sounded good so we cut some stuff down in Miami. Then I went to Stephens's house in England to rehearse before we hit the road. I was in England for about four months. I cooked for Jerry Wexler and for the band. I made homemade sausage balls, Chateaubriand, and these baby potatoes. We kept a low profile while we were there. That house in England was bought from Peter Sellers, and then Ringo Starr before that. It was built in the fifteenth century. When I first moved in I found a stethoscope and a blood pressure monitor next to my bed. Peter Sellers was married to Britt Ekland at the time. She was insatiable. I found out that he would check himself with the blood pressure monitor after having sex with her."
Ray Shasho: I guess he left it there thinking that a bunch of rock stars could probably use it. Manassas was a great band. Did you and Stills know each other when you were both attending high school in Tampa?
Joe Lala: "We did not know each other in Tampa. He went to Plant high school. He loved the Latin influence of Blues Image though. His dad worked for the CIA, and had a seafood plant in Costa Rica."
Ray Shasho: Here's a quote from Stephen Stills about you ...
"Joe Lala was an answer to a prayer, I desperately wanted to find a 'Spanglish' a latin-cuban player, cause I was going absolutely crazy trying to play that kind of music with those Turkey white drummers. No matter how good they were, no white drummers could cut it, and my songs were getting more and more Spanish flavoured."
Ray Shasho: Why did Manassas break up?
Joe Lala: "There was lots of drama in the band. We were together for about two and half years. I went back to LA and did a lot of session work. Then I started getting calls from artist like The Bee Gees and Dan Fogelberg, and I never had to worry."
Ray Shasho: Joe, I need a juicy classic rock story, something those rock and roll aficionados don't already know.
Joe Lala: "I had to throw Mick Jagger and three women out of my hotel room. We played Carnegie hall together when I was with Manassas and we had suites at the Carlyle in New York. There was Mick Jagger in my room with three little beauties. I told Mick okay party's over. He said what's that all about? Well, this is my room and I think I'm going to bed now, unless you're going to share. The next day Bill Wyman said that Mick was furious with me."
"Then when I was touring with Crosby, Stills and Nash, we were at one of the hotels that looked like one of those round guys in circles. Graham Nash went to go take a pee in the middle of the night and walked out his front door buck naked without his key. He used a house phone in the hallway and called downstairs to the front desk. He said, I've locked myself out of my room can you send a man up to my room to let me back in, I'm naked. They sent a chick up there instead and he ended up having sex with her."
"I consider myself really fortune to get to hang with these guys and play with them in the late 60's and mid 70's. Those were some day's man, those were some days."
Ray Shasho: Now that the travel restrictions have been lifted, do you have any thoughts about going to Cuba?
Joe Lala: "I was there in 1979 for the Havana Jam. It was at the Karl Marx Theater formerly known as the Teatro Blanquita. One night Fidel came to check us out. I had to pinch myself in the green room; I was there amongst all the greats like Dexter Gordon, Jimmy Heath, and Weather Report. Woody Shaw and I became very close friends, and Stan Getz was a very funny guy. There were three hundred and fifty amazing players."
Ray Shasho: Who were your biggest musical influences?
Joe Lala: "I love Latin jazz, straight ahead mainstream jazz, Coltrane, Charlie parker. My favorite kind of music was the organ trio's, Jimmy Smith, Jack McDuff, you know that shuffle thing, when I listen to that man I wet my pants."
Ray Shasho:What was your favorite acting role?
Joe Lala: "It was probably working with Robert Redford in "Havana." The movie was almost Casablanca but fell short. I was nervous and Redford fed me my lines. He said, don't worry I'm here for you man, come on. Working with Robert Redford was really something."
"You know, I raised Christina Applegate, her mom and I was an item at one time. I'd hold little Christina on my lap while reciting lines to her, and she would read them back to me perfectly. She was great."
Ray Shasho: Have you ever married?
Joe Lala: "Yes, not to Christina's mom but to Ginny McSwain my ex wife. We're still close. She just won her third Emmy award for a show she walked off of. She's a dialogue director."
Ray Shasho: How was the Firefall reunion concert in 2008?
Joe Lala: "The Firefall reunion was a gas. I was never a member of the band but I played on anything that ever happened. That concert was BAD man, Firefall is a fun band."
Ray Shasho: So you continue to play your gigs, you're still getting auditions, and now you do private acting workshops.
Joe Lala: "Yea, I want to give back something to the city that gave me so much. I've been very blessed in what I've done."
Ray Shasho: What's different about your music career versus your acting career?
Joe Lala: "When I do my acting thing I really have to do my homework, when I do music it comes natural man. It just happens."
After our interview Joe told me that he was looking for a personal assistant and even offered me the job, but the commute was a bit much for me. I called a close friend in the Tampa area to see if he could help find Joe an assistant and he recommended Frank Turano who has been his assistant ever since. Then I thanked Joe for the interview and he hugged me before I left. He was an amazing man with amazing accomplishments …A Silent- Giant of the music industry and he will be deeply missed.
Services will be held this Sunday March 23rd from 5p.m.-7p.m. at Boza &Roel Funeral Home -4730 N. Armenia Ave Tampa, Florida. 33603
RIP Joe Lala 1947-2014

text: A baby was born. His name was Lenny, and he fell into an ocean. He swam forward for twenty-two years and ended up on Terraria. Lenny gathered some sticks and made a wooden sword. He found a cell phone on the ground and called the three contacts on it and told the people to come to Terraria. The first person came. He said, "Hi, my name is Killcrash." "Hello, Killcrash," Lenny responded. "I have some things to ask you. First of all what is your life story?" "Okay, I'll tell you my life story. I was thirteen, and I found guns in my mom's closet. I asked my mom about the guns, and she said it was a secret. Fifty years later she confessed and said she was in the CIA." Lenny thrust his sword through the man and killed him. Then the next two people came and Lenny made them fight each other, and they both died. Lenny went into a house and wrote three letters and sent them to the addresses on the contact list on the phone. They informed that the person had been killed. While Lenny was taking out the first piece of paper for the letters, he paper-cut himself accidentally on the side of his right hand. While he was writing the letters, his hand pressed against the paper and he got lead poisoning. Lenny laid down on the bed and died. Two of the letters that Lenny sent were never read because he killed the only residents of the house. Killcrash lived with his mom, though, so she traveled to Terraria to figure out how Killcrash died. When she arrived, she found the three dead bodies. After weeping over Killcrash's corpse, she entered into the house Lenny died in. She felt the ground shaking near the house. When she opened the door, she was looking at a billion million trillion worms. They were all screaming "Help me! Help me! We got lead poisoning!" The mom looked over and saw Lenny's dead body with a tear in its stomach. She deduced that these worms were parasites that lived inside of him, and she made this deduction seconds before she was engulfed by the worms. The worms were dying and becoming insane. They were wildly squirming around without purpose. There was one worm though that was immune. The worm consumed every single other worm and the five dead bodies. "I need to find someone alive," the worm said. The worm traveled westward. 300 Billion years later the worm made it to America. Someone in New York stepped on him and he died. The worm's goo got all over the guy's shoe and when he walked into his house, he noticed some weird slime that came off his shoe onto the floor. He looked at it for five seconds and then died. His wife killed him by beating him over the head with a plank. She was mad because she had just found out he was cheating on her. If he hadn't turned around for five seconds, he could have noticed his angry wife and guarded against her. Now, his wife was a murderer. His wife was emotionally destroyed and couldn't think striaght, so she turned herself into the police. She was depressed, so she started eating heavily and got really fat. But at the same time, she was pregnant and didn't know it because it happened two nights before the murder, so she was getting fat from the baby, but thought it was just from the food alone. So one day she was walking through the prison hallway, and suddenly her water broke. Then the baby came out, and he was one the floor, and no one saw, and the mom fainted. The mom died from the fall on her head. The baby crawled away into a prison block, and the guards thought it was just a prisoner who lost his suit, so they treated him like a prisoner. They wondered when the baby would be released, so they looked through the files and couldn't find the baby's file. They decided that meant it was the death sentence, so they publicly hanged the baby, but a millisecond before they pulled the box out from under the baby's feet, someone from the crowd screamed, "Wait! That's not a prisoner; that's a baby!" The baby died, but everyone was appalled. The crowd formed into a mob and lynched the two guards.

College Hockey:North Dakota Penalty Kill Negates Minnesota-Duluth
ST. PAUL, Minn. — If you boil things down to the critical elements in postseason hockey, you usually end up looking at goaltending and special teams.
Both teams had the goaltending in the opening game of the WCHA Final Five Thursday night, but one had the special teams advantage.
That's why North Dakota is into the league semifinals Friday, headed for a matchup against league champion Denver.
The Fighting Sioux killed all five Minnesota-Duluth power plays and broke a scoreless tie with a third-period shorthanded goal in their 2-0 victory over the Bulldogs.
"It's been a huge factor for a lot of our wins," said Jason Gregoire, who scored the shorthanded goal. "We try to limit their puck time, and that's a huge advantage for us. If they have puck time, they're making plays and we just try to limit that. Once they get shots, our [defensemen] are boxing out, our forwards are collapsing to clear pucks."
It was on the Bulldogs' fifth and final power play that the game was decided.
After an icing on UMD brought the faceoff into the Bulldogs' end, Sioux defenseman Derrick LaPoint stepped up to hold the zone, then got the puck to Chris VandeVelde, whose shot was turned away by Bulldogs goaltender Kenny Reiter.
But Gregoire got the rebound and fired a shot home high.
The Sioux's penalty-killing success was a whole-ice effort, North Dakota goaltender Brad Eidsness said.
And it had to be, considering how strong the Bulldogs' power play has been this season. Entering Thursday's game, it had scored a power-play goal in eight straight games, and UMD led the league at 23.5 percent.
"I think we did a really good job disrupting them up ice," said Eidsness, who stopped all 22 shots he faced. "We didn't allow them to get set up in our zone a lot, and I think that's one thing that we're very good at. We score a goal shorthanded because two guys are down deep breaking up a play and making a play of their own.
"I think it's frustrating for a power play as well to have it be difficult to come up ice and be set."
It had to be frustrating for the Bulldogs, who opened the third period with 1:22 of power play time left but didn't get an official shot on goal — they had a goal waved off because of a high stick.
In five power-play opportunities, UMD got five shots on goal while conceding four and the shorthanded goal.
"We knew that they were going to pressure," Bulldogs coach Scott Sandelin said. "They look for a lot of offensive chances on their penalty kill. They're pretty aggressive up the rink. We didn't come up the rink with a lot of speed. We didn't get pucks deep.
"You can't come up the rink half speed. You've got to come up with some urgency, with a little more speed, continue to get pucks behind and get support. I didn't think we did a great job of that most of the night."
There wasn't much surprise at the pressure the Sioux brought.
"We knew what they were going to come with and we didn't respond," Sandelin said.
With Eidsness turning away everything that came his way and the penalty kill getting the job done, the Sioux had a good formula going Thursday.
"It's about four guys being on same page and your goaltender making saves," Sioux coach Dave Hakstol said. "You can make what you want out of it, but that's really what it comes down to. It's hard work."

You're lucky you didn't get your ass beat for that, there's some dangerous black women out there.
yeah, some bitchez be crazy
There's more crazier & dangerous white women...they're the ones who pay hundreds for their weave.
they can't all use horse hair
Im black and I pay $300 for my sew in.... I would've been pissed
Did her weeve get unwoven?
A weave is fake hair sown, glued or clipped into a girls hair.
Probably Bridgeport or New Haven, I'd guess.
Everyone has extensions nowadays! I can never be sure who's hair I'm really touching....
Oh no you D-int!
That's awesome I don't know why so many pricks voted it down

Tami Taylor, full of Southern charm but always the smartest and often the most opinionated person in the room, resonated with Britton and with viewers. "I have a lot of similarities to Tami at a core level," says Britton. "My values are the most closely aligned with hers of anyone that I've played."
On FNL, Britton and Kyle Chandler, who portrayed her husband, Coach Eric Taylor, created what may be both the best and the most realistic marriage ever seen on TV. Tami and Eric were a team, and so, professionally, were Britton and Chandler. Several times the two caravanned together, she in her car and he on his motorcycle, making a road trip of the drive to Austin, Texas, where FNL filmed, from their homes in L.A.
"Kyle and I shared the same point of view on how we wanted that marriage portrayed," says Britton. "We said early on, 'Don't even try to write one of us having an affair because we're not going to do it. We want to portray what most people who live in small towns do: They get together, live together, have good days and bad days. They make it work.' "
Chandler, who remains a close friend, especially admires Britton's insistence that the show be about more than football. "Most people don't know how much she fought on that set to get a woman's perspective across," he says. "And that was a great benefit to the show. We always knew that Tami knew what she'd given up for her husband's job. There was always that tension."
As FNL was finishing its run, Murphy, riding high on Glee, met with Britton about his next series, the lurid American Horror Story. He wanted her to play Vivien Harmon, a homemaker who moves to L.A. seeking a fresh start with her unfaithful husband but inadvertently ends up living in a haunted house. Her character would have sex with a masked man wearing a black rubber suit, eat brains and give birth to a demon baby. "I told her, 'Why don't you go from being the best wife and having the best marriage to being and having the worst?' " Murphy says. "She just laughed." Britton took the role, finding herself drawn to the risk.
The fall of 2011 was beyond busy for Britton. FNL ended its run, Horror Story began airing, and she was learning to be a mother, having just brought Yoby, then nine months old, back to L.A. She had begun the adoption process three years earlier, not long after her father died. "I was going, What am I waiting for? I had always thought, I'm going to find a man first and have my own babies before I adopt, but [my father's death] was a wake-up call," she says. She decided on Ethiopia because she had been working on a self-financed documentary (as yet uncompleted) about orphans there and was active on behalf of the African Children's Choir, a charity that promotes education for children in the region. (Sharp-eyed viewers will remember that Britton regularly wore an African Children's Choir T-shirt to bed as Tami on FNL.)
Once she'd set her course, Britton says, there was no turning back: "Being a single mom is challenging, but never in a million years would that have stopped me. You get an idea in your head, and you're going to do it. People can tell you how hard marriage is or how hard it is to birth a baby, but we do these things. We want the journey of that."
As for her son, she's enamored. "He's incredibly openhearted. One of my favorite qualities is that he has an enormous curiosity about everything, but he's not stupid about it. He wants to open and close doors, but he immediately learned that he'd better watch where his fingers are. Of course, I think my kid is brilliant."
Draining her coffee cup, Britton reflects on where she finds herself today. "My whole life has been building to all the good stuff that has happened to me in the last few years," she says. "I think—and this is ironic when I'm working harder and have more responsibility than ever before—that I now know the importance of grace and sitting back. I have a deeper understanding of how most people are just trying to do the best they can."

Tradition will shine brightly at Pine Forest School of the Performing/Visual Arts this week as they present their 14th annual Second Grade Art and Science Show on Thursday, May 3.
"The show is a kind of rite of passage at Pine Forest," said Laura Hammock, the second grade teacher who wrote and choreographed this year's show. "We put it on for many reasons: to introduce the students to being part of a production; to build confidence and the will to perform; and to educate students about important subjects through the arts."
This year's show, The Science Machine, will feature three "mini scientists" as they build a time machine and travel throughout the universe to learn about dinosaurs, the water cycle, the ocean, space and the rainforest. This art and science-infused show encompasses singing, dancing and acting from the second grade students.
"It took a dedicated team to produce," Hammock said. "From the other second grade teachers, Linda Behner, Kim Baumgardner, Lauren Davis and Kim Drawdy to our dance, music, and drama teachers: Debbie Rankin, Terri Wester and Sam Fisher. We all help each other and the students."
There will be three free performances open to the public on Thursday, May 3: 10 a.m., 1:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Donations will be accepted and concessions will be sold to help offset the cost of the production.
Pine Forest is located at 3929 Grant Road in San Marco. Zip code 32207. For information contact Laura Hammock at 904.346.5600 ext. 209 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

email@example.com URL: http://www.valpo.edu/law
The Valparaiso University School of Law is recognized
for the following four traits:
Exceptional Legal Research and Writing: According to a survey by the American Bar Foundation,
hiring partners at law firms ranked research and writing skills as the most
important skill set a new lawyer can bring to the job. It is common for law
schools to require one year of legal writing. Valparaiso requires students to enroll in
three years of both legal writing and legal research.
Enduring Core Competencies: No matter how much the world and laws change, no
matter how often attorneys change their practice, there are certain constants:
the ability to engage in critical, analytical, and creative thinking, and the
ability to communicate clearly and succinctly. These core competencies comprise
the cornerstone of a Valparaiso
Truly Personal Manner of Teaching and Learning: The teaching and learning style of Valparaiso is highly collaborative and integrated.
strives to provide a legal education that is tailored to the aspirations of
each student. Every pedagogical component, including the intentionally smaller
student body, is designed to help law students, as individuals, succeed in
their professional endeavors.
Law as a Calling: Valparaiso
is a community dedicated to imparting not just skills and knowledge, but
values, the sense of self, and the commitment to service. Our graduates are not
just good lawyers, but good people. Not just successful men and women, but
noble men and women. Not just influential lawyers and leaders, but ones who use
their influence for the highest service and the profoundest good.
Valparaiso University School of Law is one of six
colleges of Valparaiso
(www.valpo.edu), a private university affiliated with the Lutheran church. The
other five colleges include an honors college, Christ College; the College of Nursing;
the College of Engineering;
the College of Business
Administration; and the College of Liberal Arts.
The campus is located in the Chicago exurb of Valparaiso, one hour from the Chicago Loop in Northwest Indiana.
The School
of Law offers full‑time,
part‑time, and accelerated programs leading to the Juris Doctor degree. It
also offers dual J.D./Masters degree programs and an LL.M. for foreign lawyers.
The School of Law enrolls approximately 550 students, drawn from
over 140 colleges and universities in the United States and abroad. There are
over 4,000 alumni around the world. Alumni include lawyers in large and small
firms; attorneys in general counsel offices; federal and state judges;
academics; businesspersons; and leaders of nonprofit organizations.
Valparaiso is the only American law school with a sports law
clinic that offers free legal services to amateur athletes. The Sports Law
Clinic, founded in 2005, attended the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy,
and recently defeated the U.S. Anti‑Doping Agency in USADA vs. Jenkins,
the first athletic victory in USADA's five‑year history.
A summer program of international and comparative law
studies is offered annually in Cambridge,
Courses are taught by faculty and distinguished visitors, among them several
United States Supreme Court Justices. A second summer program in international
human rights with the Universidad de Valparaiso in Chile, commenced in the summer of
Skills education is an important part of the School of Law's curriculum and programs. The Law
Clinic, which was established in 1965, offers a civil clinic, a criminal
clinic, a tax clinic, a juvenile clinic, a domestic violence clinic, a sports
law clinic, and a mediation clinic. Approximately 40% of Valparaiso University
School of Law students participate in one of these clinics, which provide free
legal services to over 700 members of the community each year.
A wealth of externships is available in federal and
state agencies, prosecutor and public defender offices, public service
organizations, and other institutions.
Students participate in many practice competitions. The
prestigious Luther M. Swygert Moot Court competition is held each year; judges
include members of the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, Indiana Supreme Court,
federal district courts, and in some years the United States Supreme Court. The
student Moot Court Society enters student teams in ten national competitions
annually. Teams also compete in ATLA Mock Trial competitions, client counseling
and negotiating competitions, and other moot court competitions.
Several endowed annual lectureships enrich the life of
the School. The Monsanto Lecture brings a leading scholar in law or economics
to speak on issues in tort law or reform. The Seegers Lecture brings a leading
legal scholar or philosopher to speak on the topic in jurisprudence or legal
theory. The Tabor Institute brings to campus a leading scholar in legal ethics
to deliver two lectures, one for practicing lawyers in the community and one
for those interested in scholarly issues in the field. The Indiana Supreme
Court lectureship offers a national speaker on a topic of current interest to
the academy and the profession.
A graduation requirement is that law students provide
20 hours of pro bono activity in the form of legal service, government, or
nonprofit work. Many students perform more than 40 hours, and those that do are
recognized at graduation with Public Service Honors.
Students who work in public service during the summer
are eligible for financial assistance through the Summer Public Interest Scholarship
program. Graduates who commit to working in public interest positions following
graduation may apply for loan repayment assistance through the School of Law's Loan Repayment Assistance Program.

Dear Green Wave Fans,
How appropriate that I am writing to you on St. Patrick's Day. In addition to this being a day when the whole world celebrates wearing green, I am writing to you with news that will make Greenies everywhere excited about the future of Tulane football.
Last night at the Wilson Center, Tulane President Scott Cowen and I addressed an overflow crowd that gathered for the debut of The Playbook, which articulates our vision for Tulane's football program. Beginning this year and into the future, we expect our football program to win consistently, compete for the conference championship and participate in post-season play.
As President Cowen says in his message in The Playbook, it is now time to focus on the development and success of Tulane Athletics. Now more than ever, we need all of our fans and supporters to come together and support the amazing student-athletes who proudly represent our university. It is time to look ahead and make the most of our opportunities.
We now have the tools to build a successful program, including increased financial support, increased admissions support, priority registration for student-athletes, additional academic advisors and tutors, more strength and conditioning staff, plus we are exploring a better game day experience. Check out The Playbook for details. As always your comments and questions are appreciated, so please e-mail them to email@example.com. You will receive a response.
Last night was all about football (plus a little baseball as the Wave defeated Alcorn State 12-0 at Turchin), but tonight is all about our women's basketball team. Following a 22-win season and a trip to the Conference USA Championship title game, the team was rewarded with an at-large berth to the 2011 Women's National Invitation Tournament. Tonight they tip off against in-state foe Southern University at 7 p.m. in Fogelman Arena.
Coach Lisa Stockton is so fired up about a great home crowd that she's personally buying the first 100 student tickets. We know that Southern is going to bring a bunch of fans; let's make sure that all Green Wave supporters turn out in force. Our team deserves lots of noise and fanfare. See you tonight!
Roll Wave,
PS: Almost forgot--take a look at our new recruiting website. It's a great site that really emphasizes what makes Tulane and New Orleans a terrific destination for student-athletes.

LOS ANGELES - Check back throughout the day for updates from Los Angeles as Washington prepares to play Washington State tonight at 8:40 p.m. PT.
3:45 p.m. - The team just returned from shootaround at Price HS in Los Angeles, the alma mater of Tyreese Breshers. Numerous visitors popped their head in to say hi to the retired Husky and he seemed to definitely be in his element.
The Huskies got down to business and worked on some plays and the scout for Washington State. A familiar face was back in the fold for the Huskies -- senior Justin Holiday. He participated in the entire 60 minute session and looked sharp throughout.
The Huskies were loose during their practice, but seem focused and ready to try to exact revenge for two earlier losses vs. Washington State. They'll relax in their rooms for an hour or so before meeting up again for team dinner.
Below is a video of Gregg Bell prior to the Huskies' shootaround.
11:45 a.m. - Good morning Husky fans!
The team arrived at the J.W. Marriott Hotel in downtown at L.A. Live and immediately gathered for a team dinner. They then spend 30 minutes in film study and from there, headed to their rooms for lights out.
It is an interesting dynamic at the hotel as all 10 teams are staying at the J.W. Marriott. Each team is assisgned a floor where their block of rooms are, but all 10 teams have their meetings and meals on the same floor -- just in different rooms. So, you can hop on an elevator at any given time with players, coaches and staff members from multiple schools. For the most part, it's a quiet ride!
Today, the players were given a 9:30 a.m. wake up call and breakfast was at 10:00 a.m. From what I observed, OSU, Oregon, Arizona and UCLA were all on a similar schedule and having their breakfasts at the same time.
Immediately following breakfast, the Husky players headed back to their rooms and grabbed their backpacks and books and headed back to their meeting room for study tables. Next week is finals week at Washington, so the guys were hard at work.
The next activity for the Huskies is shoot around at 2 p.m. at Price High School, where Tyreese Breshers matriculated. The Dawgs went to the same gym last season, so hopefully it proves to be the good luck charm again.
For those curious, the shootaround will also be where Justin Holiday will give it a go and see if he can play tonight against Washington State.
We'll report back later and tell you how things are going.
Go Dawgs!!

Strawberry Recipes for Smoother Skin
Enjoy vitamin-C-rich strawberries in these sweet and savory recipes.
Strawberries are a favorite summer fruit—and they're super-nutritious too. Just 1 cup of strawberries has a respectable 3 grams of fiber and more than a full day's recommended dose of vitamin C. Eating more vitamin-C-rich foods, such as strawberries, may help to ward off wrinkles and age-related dryness, suggests research from 2007 in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Vitamin C's skin-smoothing effects may be due to its ability to mop up free radicals produced from ultraviolet rays and also its role in collagen production, which helps keeps skin firm. Enjoy the super-healthy fruit in these delicious easy strawberry recipes.

I seem to have a problem with rotating and moving the molecule with the wireless Logitech mouse that I have. This is a three button mouse but the middle one is a wheel. What can I do about it?
The wheel itself should also act as a button. By pressing on the wheel button, you should be able to rotate the structure. For more information, see the Maestro User Manual section entitled "Mouse Functions". The manual can be accessed from Maestro with Help → Manuals Index.
