President Huddleston's Op-Ed
Imagine a New Hampshire business that generates $1.3 billion for the state's economy every year. Imagine that its partnerships with private businesses create or save hundreds of jobs, raise millions in investments and help thousands of small businesses get started, meet payroll and succeed.
Its research and development wing is rated among the nation's best.
At the same time, it gives its trainees the skills they need to thrive in the new economy. Finally, it helps their families and makes New Hampshire a great place to live.
This is the University of New Hampshire.
While UNH is not a for-profit business, as an investment UNH offers the New Hampshire economy an extraordinary return on its public dollars.
Remarkably, UNH accomplishes all this with a relatively modest, though critical, contribution from the state. The state's contribution to UNH is just 13 percent of our budget. As a state, New Hampshire makes by far the lowest per-capita contribution to higher education in the country.
With ingenuity and true New Hampshire frugality, UNH wisely leverages this state money. For the state's $68 million annual investment and with other sources, UNH contributes $1.3 billion to the gross state product. Put another way, UNH generates $1,000 per state resident in economic activity, while the state's contribution to UNH equals $52 per state resident. That's a 20-to-1 return on investment.
So it was disheartening to learn that the House Finance Committee recommends cutting the state's contribution to University System of New Hampshire by 45 percent. In real dollars, this would mean a $31 million loss for UNH -- a historic and devastating cut.
We understand the dire nature of the state's budget. The challenges New Hampshire faces are unprecedented, and we well know that the era of business-as-usual has passed. As partners with the state, UNH takes its responsibility for addressing these challenges seriously. Our strategic plan for 2020 is a major step that will remake the way we deliver higher education. At its core is a demand for more innovative UNH collaborations with private industries, funders and entrepreneurs.
It also demands real sacrifices. Last month, the University System took a proactive step to cut almost $9 million in employee compensation and benefits. UNH also appointed a new task force to seek further savings, which will report out soon.
While we are uncertain how such deep cuts would be absorbed, they would certainly threaten UNH's ability to deliver the research, technology and expertise that are already helping hundreds of New Hampshire businesses get started, stay in business and thrive in tough times.
The New Hampshire Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at UNH, for example, is the only state agency that has certified, full-time business advisers to provide confidential, long-term management advice to small businesses. Last year, it advised 724 companies in 181 New Hampshire communities -- resulting in a return of $10 in tax revenues and $158 in wages for every dollar invested by the state.
The New Hampshire Innovation Research Center at UNH has awarded more than $6 million to 129 companies. Matching money brings the total to $20 million over 20 years.
Last summer, UNH launched the New Hampshire Innovation Commercialization Center at Pease Tradeport. This effort provides expert advice, business services, and seed money to new companies -- including those that are using UNH-patented technology.
UNH also launched a new partnership to extend broadband Internet access across the state, which will create 700 jobs and improve access to 12,000 businesses and institutions.
I'm optimistic that the full House, and then the Senate, will take a second look at UNH and reconsider the House Finance Committee's recommendation. In times like these, it makes no sense to slash an investment that offers such strong, consistent returns for our citizens and our state's future.

Had a bit of a mishap last week, not my mares fault, just a set of circumsances that put me in A&E having been kicked in the face by her front foot. I was putting her out, she can be lively especially if something new is on the yard, be it a piece of kit a wheelbarrow whatever, anyway she was flying around this new scary object, I was tired and stupidly couldn't be bothered to go to the tack room and get her head collar so had her in the Dually. Once being silly the pressure came on as she pulled, this shocked her so she started snorting which set my other 2 off in the field! They galloped about, she got more wound up then the wind blew the gate shut!
Stupidly even though she was on her toes threatening to rear I walked in front of her to open the gate, she shot through the gateway again the pressure of Dually got her so she spun round reared and boxed out kicking me in the face. I have 12 stitches by my eye, the wound went into the muscle and we won't know for months whether the nerve damage is permanent in that side of my face!
The following day I didn't put them out for other reasons, but the next day I was almost physically ill by the time I had walked them all out individually to the field. I am trying to convince myself it is all OK and a freak accident, but a week later I am really struggling with leading them in and out. I don't have any help, as my horses are at home. Once they are in the stable or the field I am absolutely fine around them, it is just the leading bit that is causing a problem! Well I keep a bit of a distance because I don't want to get the stitches knocked!!
I have spent the last hour this morning trying to get up the courage to put them out, they are all wound up because of the wind, men working on the road outside the yard laying new tarmac so I gave up and have come in here to ask you guys if something similar has happened to you and how you dealt with it.
I have tried telling myself it was an accident, and I know how lucky I am - had enough Doctors telling me at the hospital! It could have all been worse, I could have lost my eye as the blow was only a few mm from it, I could have been killed but still I have the 50 yard walk from yard to field and the sheer terror of it. She is only allowed out for a few hours a day because of her Cushing's and Laminitis last winter otherwise I would probably chuck them out 24/7!
So any ideas? Please?
There is no greater gift than to share time with a creature of such beauty - The Horse.

Firstly, so sorry to hear about your accident, and glad that you are recovering well from it. Have you got an MP4 or something similar. Put some easy sing along songs on it and when leading put it them out. Also being particulary obvious, put a your hat on ( when you can get it on) to lead them out. Take your time and good luck. xxxx

Oh my gosh you poor thing, I can only imagine how you must be feeling. Your safety does come first though and if you are still understandably feeling nervous around the horses after your accident (most people would be feeling this way as well I am sure) then you need to see if you can find some help somehow. Remember as well the horses may be confused as to why you are acting a little nervous around them, if they are not used to you being like this. Are they maybe using this to their advantage and having a little bit of fun?
Although you are at home, do you have any experienced friends that you could ask to help you out for a little while until the shock of what has happened sinks in a bit more? If you do not have any friends that are able tp help you out, maybe call some local tack shops and ask if they have any notices for riders looking for some extra money, maybe for a few weeks it could be worth paying someone to come and help you out. Sometimes just physically having someone there with you is enough to make you feel comfortable handling the horses etc yourself, they are always there if you start to feel unable to carry on. Please do not feel at all embarrassed in any way about asking for help. You have had a terrible shock and even if your horses were the most laid back in the world, I think most people would still be feeling very wary.
Do not rush yourself either, I do think these things take time emotionally to get over. Your are also physically hurting from the accident, which will be making you feel worse as well I imagine. If you can, try to stop yourself thinking about the 'what if's'. I think it is natural for us to think about how much worse things could have been, however that normally only makes us feel worse, just the thought of it all.
Good luck and remember do not rush yourself. Maybe speak with your Dr as well and see if he can recommend anything to maybe help calm your nerves over the next little while. I know a few friends use Rescue Remedy when going to competitions etc to help calm them down.
Keep us posted on how you get on
Thanks Guys.
I did have a girl come in a few days a week to help out, sadly she quit day after my accident! My friends have been wonderful, but they all say I am stubborn in trying to just get on with it!
Anyway, had a few good days, had a good talking to myself and reminded myself that this was an accident, have tried to be more myself around the horses which has helped and have even put the other 2 out without any problems - I have had to ask myself am I keeping them in because of the me or for them. So took the bull by the horns and they have been out every day, I even put my kick boxer out today, she was excited and on her toes but she waited until I had taken off her head collar before letting rip across the 'play pen' rearing and bucking - I can handle that behaviour!!
I am tending to make sure someone is around somewhere when I put them in or out as a just in case, but your right it probably gives me more confidence.
I think everyone is right once the stitches are out and I am not worried about getting bumped or knocked things will gradually go back to normal - tomorrow hopefully some of the stitches are coming out. At least the black eye has more or less gone now!!
Well, it was certainly an experience I wouldn't want to repeat and my beautiful mare I think was so upset by it all, she knew she'd done it and has been so very sweet, not that I was ever angry with her, I did have a laugh yesterday with the Farrier and her yesterday saying she will now always be engraved on my skin!
Funny really, she is the one horse I trusted 100% on the ground, get on her back and I never trusted her at all, every injury I have had from her was ridden! But these things happen and we learn a valuable lesson.
Thanks for help.

The success of the Jeep Grand Cherokee means that Sergio Marchionne will be looking to expand the use of this platform across the Fiat-Chrysler range to other new models. A Fiat crossover using this platform has been talked about for some time, but it seems that Marchionne could be considering both a Maserati SUV and an Alfa SUV based on the Cherokee.
To be honest, the reports have been slightly beaten up across the internet from the original article appearing in the Detroit News in which it was said:
There has long been speculation about an Alfa Romeo version of the SUV, but Marchionne talked about the high-end Maserati brand potentially adding SUVs based on the Grand Cherokee as well…. "I've never seen a vehicle have this kind of support," Marchionne said.
So Marchionne didn't confirm the Alfa SUV and neither do we get a quote directly associated with the Maserati SUV. What is interesting is that Marchionne clearly believes the quality build and platform of the Jeep Grand Cherokee is what's driving demand - not the brand appeal or style of the car itself.
The new Fiat Group crossover and SUV models would contribute to an expanding line-up expected to reach the ambitious targets for the Alfa brand and Fiat overall, set by Marchionne for the year 2015. This is the first indication of exactly what we'll be seeing as although Alfa Romeo has the new Alfa MiTo and Alfa Giulietta directing sales at the moment, no replacement model for the Alfa Brera had been announced and even plans for the new Alfa Giulia sedan were looking shaky.
We can't help wondering if the crossover and SUV category in the Maserati and Alfa brands is worth pursuing. Alfa Romeo could probably get away with a SUV, but we're less convinced that Maserati can. We also would have loved to have seen a snazzy new Alfa coupé - that would have been something to write home about.
Marchionne is a practical man though, and the sales results of the Jeep Grand Cherokee make sense in this context. A new Fiat Crossover, perhaps more upmarket than the Panda or Fiat Sedici could really work and on the local market, too. Hopefully there's more news to come soon and if it's like this, the Alfa Romeo and Maserati futures could be more interesting and optimistic than first thought.

Kolkata. Amidst mounting clamor for his resignation from chairmanship of WBHRC and his unwillingness to do so, Justice Ganguly has sought guidance from BCCI chief N Srinivasan on how to tackle such demands in a shameless sophisticated manner.
Initially Ganguly, who is being accused of sexually molesting an intern, wasn't worried and thought that with growing number of sexual harassers, his case would soon get buried under other high profile cases. But after expected outrage from Arnab Goswami and unexpected outrage from Sushma Swaraj, he was under tremendous pressure to rethink his strategy.
Following this Ganguly started looking for public figures who could help him out. That's when he realized there is nobody better than Mr Srinivasan to consult when it comes to stubbornly ignoring public and media demands with élan.
Ganguly has now expressed his wish to learn the art of 'how to step aside from a post and still continue to retain it and call the shots' from the CSK owner. He has even offered to come out of retirement and fight future corruption cases against BCCI chief and his son-in-law in return.
"Not everybody is as talented in handling constant humiliation and as blessed with shamelessness as Mr Srinivasan. I look forward to an enriching guidance that will help me in going about my daily routine without an ounce of ignominy," the retired Supreme Court judge told Faking News.
As per latest reports N Srinivasan has decided to help Ganguly and to begin with has asked him to start calling himself just a legal enthusiast of Human Rights who has no role in the position he is holding thereby ruling out resignation demands.

I'm seven weeks away from my due date. Seven weeks away from having a second child. (Well, 6 1/2 if we're counting, which I am.)
During my last pregnancy I did what many about-to-be-new moms do and bought parenting books. Actually, I bought mostly pregnancy books and then realized that was really just the first – and certainly not the hardest – part of my journey. So I skimmed the baby books and fantasized about nursing and milestones and cuddling a sleeping baby.
And then Connor was born. And I started reading those baby books in much more detail.
Why is he not sleeping?
Is it normal to nurse this often and this long?
I think he's bored. I bet Dr. Sears has ideas for how to entertain him…
It was exhausting (and not just because he wasn't sleeping).
I was also involved at the time in forums that were full of new moms. There I could peruse thread after thread of questions and advice and compare their situations to mine and analyze every little thing to the minutest detail.
It didn't help.
I didn't realize it at the time, because those books and forums seemed like a lifeline to a first-time mom at home on mat leave for a year. And some of the advice was helpful. But for someone like me with a tendency to over think things and not trust my instincts, the perspectives of others were actually a barrier to figuring out how to be a mom.
This is what I now know:
- Every baby is different and you need to figure out how to soothe/feed/whatever your baby without worrying too much about what others are doing.
- Whatever you're experiencing is probably normal, so just take a deep breath.
- Baby books are full of advice about what is typical. Most babies aren't typical. Normal, yes. Typical, no. If you expect your baby to be like the books you're going to drive yourself crazy.
- Some babies just don't sleep. Accept it and you'll be much less frustrated. But for the love of God, figure out how to get some sleep yourself. (Confession: I'm still working on this one.)
- Being a mom is hard, and some parts of having a baby are REALLY hard.
- It's OK to ask for help.
So when the time comes again seven weeks from now (or six – I'd be okay with six) this is the advice I plan to follow. My own. And for the most part I'm planning to leave the parenting books on the shelf where they belong.

Now just a few years later, Violet is at it again, expanding their ever-growing "internet of things" with the launch of Mir:ror. The Mir:ror is the new must-have gadget for any tech-conscious consumer. This simple and sleek device grants you the power to make everyday objects interactive and content-rich. Just like Nabaztag, Mir:ror's underlying technology relies on a connection to wireless internet. Mir:ror also uses RFID technology, or radio-frequency identification, in the form of RFID Ztamps, which give it the ability to automatically identify people or objects through radio waves. Simply affix a Ztamp to the object of your choice and enjoy the perks of a perfectly intuitive and excitingly interactive lifestyle.
With this magic mirror and a handful of Ztamps, the possibilities are endless. Taking a coffee break? The Ztamp on your mug will alert Mir:ror to automatically update your twitter or facebook status. Just come home from a weekend trip? The Mir:ror will send emails to your friends and family notifying them of your safe return. Too busy to read the paper? Your Mir:ror and Ztamps will find the latest news and read it to you aloud while you take care of your other business. With so many great applications, the Mir:ror is sure to be one of those technologies that once integrated, will be absolutely indispensable. Like cell phones and PDAs before it, I'm sure it won't take long before we wonder how we ever managed to get through a single day without a magic Mir:ror in our lives.

BOULDER � Former University of Colorado skier and Olympic bronze medalist Jimmie Heuga passed away here Monday afternoon, 46 years to the day he won one of the first two medals in United States men's Olympic ski team history.
Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1970 after displaying symptoms for a year, he courageously fought the disease for almost four decades before succumbing after some recent respiratory problems. He was 66.
One of four skiers from Colorado to participate in the 1964 Winter Olympics at Innsbruck, Austria, he won the bronze medal in the slalom. The coach of the U.S. team was Bob Beattie, also head coach of the CU ski team, and Heuga was one of four CU skiers on the U.S. squad, along with Billy Kidd (who won the silver in the slalom), Buddy Werner and Bill Marolt. This group, with Jean Saubert (female) from Oregon, is largely credited with putting U.S. skiing on the so-called international map. Werner was on the cover of Sports Illustrated the previous week leading up to the Olympics, for January 27, 1964; Heuga and Kidd graced the cover four years later for the same (February 5, 1968).
Kidd mentioned Monday night that Heuga passed away shortly after 1 p.m., the irony there being that the slalom back on February 8, 1964 commenced at ... 1 p.m. "I'll always remember that day, the excitement when we found out we finished 2-3 behind (Josef) Stiegler (Austria). Only our parents and Bob Beattie thought we had a chance to win a medal.&rdquo Stiegler won in a two-run time of 2:11.13, with Kidd timed at 2:11.27 and Heuga at 2:11.52.
Werner, Heuga and Kidd were the first CU athletes to ever appear on the legendary magazine's cover.
Kidd's and Huega's medals the first two skiing ever captured by U.S. males; Saubert was a double medalist that year (silver in GS, bronze in slalom) to give the United States four in 1964. Gretchen Fraser had won the first medals for the U.S. in the 1948 games at St. Moritz, Switzerland, with Andrea Mead Lawrence winning two gold in Oslo in 1952.
An interesting side note is that those were the last Olympics where the equipment included wooden skis, leather boots, and bindings that Kidd said, "were so bad that you had to wind things so tight that you'd rather break your leg than lose your chance at the Olympics." By 1968, plastic boots and fiberglass skis were the norm.
Marolt said Monday that when "Heuga needed to be great, he'd be great." The greatest example of that might have been that slalom performance at Innsbruck. When facing the world's best, starting in the 24th position is not exactly ideal. To rise from the 24th spot and to claim the bronze is not something readily accomplished on any level in alpine skiing.
Heuga also skied in the 1968 Winter Olympics at Grenoble, France, before retiring to enter coaching. At the same time, he eventually finished his CU degree, earning a B.A. in Political Science in 1973. He was inducted into the United States National Ski Hall of Fame in 1976 , the Colorado Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame in 1987, the University of Colorado Athletic Hall of Fame in 2000 (the school's third overall class, only six athletes went in before him), and the World Sports Humanitarian Hall of Fame in 2008.
A three-time letterman at CU, Heuga skied before the sport fully acknowledged All-Americans, and was the 1963 NCAA champion in the slalom. In addition to being a two-time Olympic team member, he was also a member of two championship United State Ski Teams (1962, 1966), skiing for the national team for 10 years.
His bio on the Ski Hall of Fame site mentions that he was, "regarded as a 'phenomenal kid' with enormous self confidence on skis. At the age of 17 he performed well at the 1959 U.S. Olympic Trials but was not selected for lack of experience. Undeterred, he was invited to travel with the team to Europe for pre-Olympic training and gained valuable experience racing against Europe's best. He earned a spot of the 1962 FIS team for the World Championships at Chamonix where he took fifth in the slalom-downhill combined, and placed 12th place in slalom and giant slalom."
He appeared in a Warren Miller ski film when was just nine, and in 1958, at 15, he was named to the U.S. Ski Team. He remains the youngest man ever on its roster.
After being diagnosed with MS, he battled symptoms most of his adult life and has been an inspiration for many. In 1983, he founded the Jimmie Heuga Center for Multiple Sclerosis in Edwards, Colo., offering physical conditioning and consulting services to help people with disabilities and personal challenges. It is now called Can Do Multiple Sclerosis and has had a profound effect on numerous people's lives.
Although confined to a wheelchair for basically what amounted to the second half of his life, he still remained active and involved in the Boulder area community. CU's current ski coach, Richard Rokos, became his personal coach and Jimmie defied the odds (and the experts) and on a specially crafted three-wheeler, started to do laps around the school's track located on east campus. And despite his MS affliction, in his own words he still "skied aggressively" when he was 63. He spent the last 12 years of his life at the Balfour Retirement Community in Louisville (Colo.), but still attended two or three CU football games every season, one of his passions. He only recently was moved to Boulder Community Hospital, where he passed away Monday.
Heuga was born Sept. 22, 1943 in Tahoe City, Calif., the son of Lucille and Pascal Heuga, a Basque immigrant who ran the cable car at Squaw Valley. He is survived by his wife, Debbie, three sons, Wilder, 20, Blaze, 18 (both CU students) and Winston, 15, and a daughter from a previous marriage, Kelly Hamill of Seattle. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Jimmie Heuga Endowment Fund, 27 Main Street East, Suite 303, Edwards, CO 81632. Details on services are pending.
What they are saying about Jimmie Heuga:
Bob Beattie, CU/U.S. Ski Team Head Coach
"When I think of Jimmie, one word comes to mind: toughness. Absolutely � toughness, all the way through. He was the toughest athlete I've ever known, mentally and physically. He could climb up to the top of the mountain faster than anybody, and he was just as tough coming down mentally. I am certain that's what allowed him to live so long with such a debilitating disease.
"One year when he signed up for classes, he had signed up for the toughest classes I'd ever seen. There was one term where he wanted to take courses like biology, physics, chemistry and calculus all at the same time. I had to take him to the side and tell him to slow down a little bit. But that's the way he was about everything.
"We were all very close, though I'll always be about 10 years older then those boys, Heuga, Kidd, Marolt. I think that's one of the great things about all of his classmates, they've all remained very close through the years. Skiing may be an individual sport, but definitely within a team aspect. I think that shows through a lot."
Bill Marolt, CU/Olympic Teammate
"Jimmie was a great friend and the consummate competitor. "I knew him from the time we were 13 years old, so that's more than 50 years. We were great friends this whole period of time, starting first as competitors and youngsters through the world championships and then Olympics. When I think of him, he was this 5-foot-6, 140-pound guy who didn't back down from anybody, but pound per pound, absolutely without question I've never seen a tougher guy, physically, mentally, emotionally.
"He had the kind of toughness you need to be a champion. He could rise to the challenge and when he needed to be great, he'd be great. He was a champion in every sense of the word. He was a champion as an athlete, as a person and any way you want to measure him. He was one of those rare people who come along who impacts everybody around him, and he made a difference to a lot of us. Jimmie's dad was a Basque, from the region of France closest to Spain. The world is full of nicknames, but (the late) Fred Casotti (CU sports information director) gave him one of the great ones: The Bounding Basque," and that really exemplifies what Jimmie was and how we'll remember him: this little guy who was full of energy and buzzing around all the time. Whether it was the slalom, dancing the twist at the Tul (Tulagi's, a famous Boulder student hangout) or simply life in general."
"Jimmie was a great Buffalo. Later in his life, Richard (Rokos) became one of the real heroes in Jimmie's life. He was always there for him as a friend and a personal coach.He cared deeply for Jimmie and I know Jimmie was comforted that he still had that close a tie to the program after Fred passed away."
Mike Bohn, CU Athletic Director
"Jimmie's competitive spirit coupled with his resolve to overcome adversity will remain as an inspiration to me and the so many people that he touched. He faced adversity with such great grace and humility."
Richard Rokos, CU Head Ski Coach & Longtime Friend
"Being young ski racers we all were hanging on news from 1964 Olympic Games in Innsbruck which was actually so close to our home yet "behind the curtain." (At the time, Rokos was a youth in Czechoslovakia, under USSR control.) For good reason we were favoring a few American boys they came to stronghold of Alpine skiing, Austria, to challenge the best in the world. Most appealing was the fact that those guys were viewed by ski aristocrats as a bunch of cowboys coming to Europe to get a bloody nose. It did not happen, the underdogs won and we were happy because being underdogs as well we felt a close affiliation.
"Jump some thirty years; one of those boys (Bill Marolt) hired me. By accident and God's design I did end up with those guys in the same bundle and that is when I met Jimmie. They all were the same as thirty years back, achievers in charge. Jimmie was different because he was an underdog to his disease and that was most appealing to me. We became friends, which in the sport of skiing is actually the norm, and I realized that Jimmie was willing to do anything possible to beat the disease and maintain the competitive edge.
"An unbelievable opportunity for me; Jimmie could not walk but through our mutual friend Tyler Hamilton and combination of fundraising events Jimmie got his three-wheeler (adult bicycle). I was suddenly the self-appointed coach to the most dedicated athlete I could dream of with all expert and doctor opinions against us. It did not matter that Jimmie could not walk, he could move with his own power and could challenge himself on any given day. He started training and improved his strength. We set his parameters: CU track, no gear, no breaks. In three years he rose to athletic stardom. We were celebrating almost weekly victories. You read a lot of inspirational stories every day but to be so close and part of it is incredible. Jimmie gave me a tenfold feeling a coach can have when things with an athlete goes right. He was willing to go on track any day, any time and challenge his previous record.
"With athletes we talk often about commitment, dedication, perseverance, drive, etc. To see it in form Jimmie presented all those qualities that can be described only by his own words, "I am living a simple dream."Jimmie was a dreamer with the biggest heart and I am sure he is already training and setting records in Heavenly Kingdom."
Billy Kidd, Teammate/Lifelong Friend
"He was the personification of determination and never giving up � he inspired so many people. Jimmie's accomplishments on the race course will forever be remembered. But it's his accomplishments and drive in the fight against MS that will continue to help so many people live their lives. His life is an inspiration.
"Jimmie and I were 20-year olds in 1964, and the main guys on the team were really Buddy Werner and Chuck Ferries. Only our parents and Bob Beattie thought we had a chance to win a medal. If only one of us had medaled, not being one of the top guns, many would have written it off as a fluke. But when both Jimmie and I won medals, outsiders really started looking different at the U.S. Ski Team."
Scott Blackmun, U.S. Olympic Committee CEO
"Jimmie Heuga was one of our greatest Olympians and one of our greatest Americans. As a skier he was among the best in the world. But, as a human being later in his life, he made a difference for those suffering from a terrible disease. He will be sorely missed by our Olympic Family and by everyone he touched in his life."
Larry Zimmer, Former KOA Sports Director/Ski Enthusiast/Voice of the Buffs
"Jimmie Heuga was one of the bravest people that I knew. He refused to let MS get him down. In the early stages he still got on skis and even after being confined to a wheelchair continued to make appearances for his foundation and at fund raisers to fight MS. He never lost his love of life, the infectious smile and the warm personality that made him special."

Endia Martin, a 14-year-old girl in Chicago, was shot to death. After the incident, another 14-year-old girl has been charged with first degree murder in the shooting. According to the Chicago Tribune on Tuesday, two other persons may also be charged in the homicide case.
The charges against the 14-year-old girl came after a person of interest in the case was questioned by Chicago Police Department authorities. Chicago's Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy has said that two other individuals are in custody and will likely be charged with the murder of Martin as well. Explaining the circumstances of the gunshot murder in the city, McCarthy said that what would have been – under normal circumstances – a fist fight between girls over a boy, turned into a murder.
According to an ABC News report, the murdered teen was walking home from school on Monday at approximately 4:30. Martin attended Tilden Career Academy which is located in the 900 block of West Garfield on Chicago's South Side. The girl was shot in the back while another girl – who is 16 years old – was shot in the arm. The 14-year-old offender ran away but was apprehended and taken into custody some 20 minutes later.
Ironically, Martin's parents claim that their daughter had recently transferred to Tilden Career Academy to have a shorter and safer route to school. There is no word as to whether or not this route to and from school was on or near one of Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel's "safe passage routes." The routes were designed when Emanuel closed some 50 schools last summer which not require school children to cross gang-territories to get to and from school.
Martin was taken to Comer Children's Hospital where she died. The 16-year-old girl who was shot in the arm is expected to recover. She was taken to St. Bernard Hospital.
McCarthy has apparently chosen to use the horrendous tale of yet another murder in Chicago over a gun rights statement. McCarthy said that the weapon involved in the shooting was reportedly missing by a legal gun owner in the 4th District of the city on April 13 after it was stolen out of a vehicle. In Chicago's top cop's words, "This is madness."
He continued to say that there are too many guns coming in, and no one is going to jail for guns. He claims something has got to change but did not specify what he thinks should be done. Many believe that McCarthy and Mayor Emanuel should spend more time fighting crime in the city rather than spending time pointing the finger of blame – which apparently isn't easing the number of murders to an acceptable rate. Earlier this month, the Chicago Tribune reported that the Chicago Police Department isn't accurately reporting crime in the city. The report states that crime is much worse in Chicago than is being reported by McCarthy's department.
Regarding the owner of the stolen gun, a 24-year-old uncle of the suspect is possibly facing charges as an investigation looks into how the shooting suspect got his gun. With the warmer weather comes the increased number of murders in Chicago. Two weekends ago, when temperatures were warmer, the city had 9 murders throughout the city. Last weekend, a less-perfect weekend in the city, saw 4 persons murdered in Chicago.

So Pep picked Germany, yeah, Bundes-many. The league which no one in England watches at 2am on a Tuesday. Fortunately, this is a good thing. Remember when Pep was in La Liga and it gave other teams a chance too? Oh…So Chelsea are being told they lost out, maybe they didn't: maybe there are other options. This is certainly a great preview to the summer.
To preview the weekend the pod look at the mid-week games and ahead to Spurs – United. Chelsea also play Arsenal this weekend, after such underwhelming results for both what can we take away as a positive?

Niche indie game - cheap as chips

It is far more complex than it looks and is actively supported by the developer.

I got the collectors. MPlayer is really just publicly submitted missions so there are literally an endless amount of them. You can browse for these missions in game and they have community granted ratings and win/loss ratio's so you can try to find one that has a nice balance of difficulty and entertainment.
You're still playing by yourself though - there is no one on the other end of the interweb waiting for you to finish your turn. You d/l the mission, play against it as often as you like then d/l another. Repeat.
You can do the same with just a mate (private challenge) if that's your preference as well - you can design a fleet and challenge your mate to beat it.

o.k. u did set "interact with mouseover" like this?
and also activate autoloot in wow?
Esc -> Interface -> Control -> Autoloot like this?
Pictures by andykh (thanks)
plan to make it fish pools?
I dont think the bot is picking up the fact that i have the game running. It wont let me push the start button or anything. Do you need to run in window or anything special. I am using 32 bit everything.
yes, I already have a working one. But I will test it before and fix some bugs. When MoP gets released I will give you an update which also includes fishbpool support.
I just released it now, because some people ask for a version which works with 5.0.4.
Normaly I do not want to make this public, because I am new and the most of the OC community will kill me for the shit code xD
When u press refresh you should get the processid of wow. After that the startbutton should be enabled. When there is no ID, please have a look to your processmanager and search the wow.exe. Maybe there is the wow-64.exe? :x
After the patch, the most people don't know, that they are playing with 64 Bit. That is my experience of some users.
Last edited by fortiZ; 09-03-2012 at 01:46 PM.
Okay I tried a few things. I tried both DirectX 9 and 11. I'm pretty sure I'm using wow 32 bit because when I check the "properties" of the wow shortcut that I'm using it says wow -86x. The "Health bar" on the bot is green. When I click refresh nothing happens. I also tried running as administrator.

Israeli airstrike kills Hamas militant chief
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Hamas officials in the Gaza Strip say an Israeli airstrike has killed the commander of its military wing.
Ahmed Jabari becomes the most senior Hamas official to be killed since an Israeli invasion of Gaza four years ago. Jabari has long topped Israel's most-wanted list.
Witnesses say Jabari was traveling in his vehicle in Gaza City when his car exploded.
Israeli officials had said in recent days that they were considering assassinating top Hamas officials following a wave of heavy rocket fire from the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.
Israel's brutal occupation of Gaza failed; Israel's brutal invasion of Gaza failed; Israel's brutal blockade of Gaza failed; and Israel's brutal assassination and terror campaign against Gaza will fail, as will another brutal invasion. The blood of martyrs is the lifeblood of the resistance, which is stronger now than ever. As the Nazism of our times, Zionism has no future for as someone from the Holy Land once prophetically said: those who live by the sword shall die by the sword.

It's raining development VirtualBox images again!
By pieter.humphrey on Feb 21, 2011
The cloud has burst.. forecast is looking like large amounts of VirtualBox images are coming down from OTN.
Are you finding the install for Database, WebLogic, SOA or WebCenter to be complicated when your goal is simply to setup a development sandbox? Sick of giving your credit card info to cloud vendors, only to be stuck in a walled garden where you can't connect to your own internal systems? Are you new to Java and just wanted something technical to sink your teeth into? Or maybe you just want to put some stuff on that new terabyte drive you got? ;)
Have no fear. VirtualBox 4.0 is here. We've have several development (read: don't use in production) images that were designed for use for in-person events, but we're posting them for your enjoyment. Some of the images have step by step hands on labs baked into them too! So get a freeware download manager like BitComet, install VirtualBox, an MD5 checksum utility (if you are on windows) and get wet!

BELGIUM: Ford Genk restart uncertain as union leaders held for 11 hours
By Simon Warburton | 21 January 2013
Confusion surrounds whether or not Ford will be able to resume production at its Genk plant in Belgium tomorrow (22 January) following an extraordinary situation last week that saw union leaders blockaded in a Town Hall for 11 hours.
The ABVV union said there was a series of stop-start attempts to resume production last week following a ballot but that pickets at Ford suppliers had halted flow of parts.
The labour body said the problem lay with some supplier members' fears they would not be included in Ford's social plan for its own 4,300 workers due to be made redundant next year as the automaker shutters the Genk plant in the face of plunging European orders.
"We mentioned from day one without a similar social plan for suppliers, there would not be production possible, not even for one car," ABVV union provincial president, Rohnny Champagne, told just-auto from Belgium.
"Today, we saw an intervention from Ford with a legal procedure to make sure the way for suppliers was free. Someone who can enforce the law [bailiff] went to the picket line this morning with some policemen to make sure there was free passage for everyone who is willing to work.
"If no-one is assembling an engine or seat or dashboard, no-one will build a car. We try to reassure our guys on the supplier side. If they [agree] Ford will start calling in the late afternoon to try to start tomorrow morning."
But despite optimism from the ABVV union - which represents 2,000 of Genk's 4,300 staff - Ford is less hopeful a quick return to work can be achieved.
"We have no indication it [work] will start tomorrow," a Ford spokesman in Belgium told just-auto. "We first have to ensure all parties at the suppliers have agree [d] on going back to work .
"As long as we don't have 100% indication on the supplier part, it does not make sense that the Ford plant will start production. We are talking to the suppliers continuously."
The uncertainty surrounding any resumption of production follows a virtual siege of high drama last week as union leaders including Champagne and attempting to broker a deal with suppliers, were blockaded in Genk Town Hall as protesters refused to allow them to leave.
"We had a meeting with the main delegates from Ford suppliers," said Champagne. "Some 20-25 delegates from the three different unions came into the room and broke some things and made some noise.
"I would not call it taking us hostage, but at least they would not let us go. We were there for 11 hours and they refused to let us go. By 22:30, the police entered the room in plain clothes and asked what was going on.
"By that time we were forced to call everyone we knew to try to force the managers from the four plants to come to that meeting - no-one was willing knowing we were held in that room."
Champagne added he was not happy the ballot to return to work last week had not resulted in new production but had ended up with his members suffering financially.
"When you put out a ballot and there is a majority, that is democracy," he said. "If that kind of energy is also stimulated by a few left-wing parties [people] you get this kind of thing.
"For them it is easy to say whatever and leave the guys in misery."
Ford noted production had resumed for one day in January, but was immediately halted due to lack of components.
"We hope for good news in the next coming days, but we are still watching it closely," said the Ford spokesman.
The Belgian and Flanders governments have both warned the Genk closure could throw at least 10,000 people out of work.

Today you are going to hear the name Kanye West a lot. And if you're like me (Read: The kind of person who didn't even realize that MTV's Video Music Awards were on last night, or that MTV even had Video Music Awards anymore, or that MTV even showed videos anymore) and spent the night watching "Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami" instead — this is the moment you missed.
Don't feel like clicking? The gist: Young and precious country singer Taylor Swift recieved an award and went all doe-eyed and shocked, and walked in a daze up to the stage, took the microphone and began thanking people. The not-so shy Kanye West, (who once compared himself to Jesus) busted up on stage, took the microphone, and said that Beyonce's video was one of the best videos of all time. Oh snap. Swift stood there looking like she lost her Homecoming Queen crown to the band geek, played by Mandy Moore.
Enjoy this pop culture moment.

TUCSON, Ariz. ?- The Arizona women's tennis team (5-4, 0-1) lost to defending National Champion Stanford (11-0, 4-0), 6-1, at Robson Tennis Center today. The Wildcats began the afternoon by winning the doubles point, before losing all six singles matches.
In doubles play, Arizona seniors Dianne Hollands and Maja Mlakar defeated No. 10 Alice Barnes and Erin Burdette, 8-4, at the one, to improve to 9-0 in dual match play. UA clinched the doubles point when sophomore Jessie Rochefort teamed with senior Kelly Perry to defeat Whitney Deason and Lejla Hodzic, 8-5, in the No. 3 position. This was the first time that Perry and Rochefort played together this year, but the pair went 5-3 in the No. 3 position last year. This marks just the second time in Stanford's 11 matches that the team has lost the doubles point. The other loss came against UCLA, which has two ranked pairs.
Of the doubles victory, Head Coach Vicky Maes said, "We made a good adjustment in doubles today. At the three, we went back to a pair we had last year. Hopefully that adjustment will take some of the pressure off of the two, so we can have a really strong first and third positions."
In singles play, although UA lost five of the six matches in straight sets, there was plenty of excitement on Court One. No. 33 Hollands nearly knocked off the back-to-back defending National Champion singles player Amber Liu in a three-set thriller. Hollands captured the first set, 6-3, before going up 3-0 in the second set. Liu then proceeded to take the next six games, winning the second set, 6-3.
The third set was decided by a super tiebreaker, in which the first player to win 10 points wins the match. Liu survived several scares from Hollands who refused to give in. Hollands came back from being down 8-3 to trail by just two points, at 9-7. Liu won the following point, winning the match 3-6, 6-3, 10-7.
"Dianne put herself in a very good position to beat a two-time national champion today. When you do that, you can't afford to hold anything back," Maes said. "My guess is that she probably started thinking and overanalyzing things, which is when things went bad."
Five of Stanford's six singles players are currently ranked in the top 30.

STANFORD, Calif. - Despite fielding what might be the best women's lacrosse team in school history and the best in the collegiate history of the sport in the western United States, Stanford did not receive an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament Sunday.
Against one of the toughest schedules the school has ever faced, one that included five Top 10 teams, and one day after a stunning 8-6 victory at No. 3 Penn, Stanford learned its fate while gathered together at Jimmy V's Café on campus to watch the NCAA selection show on the CBS College Sports Network.
Coach Amy Bokker was too nervous to sit and the players shared her sense of positive nervousness. But as the brackets were announced, the nervousness turned to tension, and then to silence.
The feeling around the room was that Stanford deserved to be there, but without an automatic berth for dominating the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation, it was out of the Cardinal's hands.
"We really thought we did what we needed to do," said first-year coach Amy Bokker, whose team went 14-4, won its fifth consecutive MPSF title, set a school record for goals and tied another for victories.
"Our conference will have an automatic berth next year," she said. "That will be our goal for the season."
After a few moments, and a few tears around the room, Bokker addressed the team: "You obviously have a lot to be proud of. You seniors have made a mark on what we've been able to do as a program. I don't know what else to say."
For seniors Vikki Fanslow, Jamie Nesbitt, Maris Perlman, and Melissa Vogelsong, their collegiate careers are now over.
"We played so well this season," said one senior, to the team. "We have nothing to be ashamed of. Nothing."

Two Wisconsin pre-teens stab their 12-year-old friend 19 times after tricking her to meet them in a wooded area. According to motives learned by authorities, the two girls were trying to appease a mythological creature. Washington Post reports June 1 that the assailants will be charged as adults for attempted homicide and will face up to 60 years in prison if convicted.
The violent stabbing of the 12-year-old happened in Waukesha. Both girls admitted to planning the attack for months.They lured their victim to a park Saturday after a slumber party and intended to murder her.
Bail for the pre-teens who stabbed their friend 19 times are held on $500,000 bail each.
The demon-like mythological creature the girls wanted please was something they discovered on creepypasta.wikia.com, which is a site dedicated to horror stories. They wanted to be "proxies" of Slender Man and "run away to the demon's forest mansion after the slaying," they told detectives.
As of Monday, the victim is in stable condition. A major artery near her heart was missed by just millimeters, doctors say.
According Huffington Post, a passing bicyclist noticed 12-year-old victim after she crawled out of the woods. She suffered stabs to arms, legs, and torso. One of the girls held her down while the other stabbed her.
This story about pre-teens attempting murder on their friend by stabbing her 19 times is still developing.

When you're Kim Kardashian, you can go shopping wearing whatever you want. Which is precisely what the reality star did today.
Earlier this morning, Kim was a guest at the The Hollywood Reporter's Women in Entertainment breakfast. As Kim is a woman and in entertainment, she attended wearing this gold dress and matching jacket. I'm still not entirely convinced it's not mustard yellow.
After the breakfast, Kim, Kanye West and Kris Jenner did some shopping at their local Beverly Hills Barney's. And of course, Kim wore her fancy clothes.
I get why she did it. Don't you love when you're super dressed up and go somewhere really random? Like, if I'm dressed up for a party then stop by like a drug store or something, it's just so entertaining.
Know what else is entertaining? The bikini body that Kim displayed on the cover of Us Weekly. The cover has caused some uproar about whether or not it's doctored. I'm more amused by the fact that she took photographers to the beach for an Us Weekly cover shoot.
Launch the gallery to check out all the photos of Kim's fancy shopping look. Do any of you guys get a kick out of doing that, too? Sound off in the comments!

'The core values of courtesy, cooperation and commitment permeate every aspect of the school.' 'Roundhay is all about its students. Staff ensure that each one, regardless of background or ability, is given every opportunity to shine' Ofsted. However, we are far from complacent and know that, in spite of the fact that we are the most over-subscribed school in Leeds, with 100% of our staff recommending Roundhay as a place to work and 99% of parents also recommending us, our reputation is hard won and easily lost. Staff development is at the heart of what we do and the recent IIP Gold Award is another indication that this is more than just words!We pride ourselves on having a strong ethos which permeates the work of all staff and pupils in our community.

Barton: If Christians Ran Things, Schools Would Institute Prayer & Government Wouldn't Help The Poor

Like Michele Bachmann, David Barton also sat down for an interview with George Barna to discuss "Faith In Politics" a few months back. During the discussion, Barna asked Barton how America would be different if people actually followed the teaching of Jesus, to which Barton explained that everything from our economic to our foreign policy would be drastically different and that public schools would start the day off with prayer because "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge" and the government would stop helping the poor: Barna: How do you think the...

According to Pastor John Hagee, the U.S. military is no longer able to win wars because of Satan worship and increasing "paganism" in America. Hagee, who is an official endorser of Texas Gov. Rick Perry's The Response prayer rally and a prominent Religious Right leader, delivered the remarks in a speech to last year's Word Explosion Conference in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Perry has said that The Response is needed to solve problems that are "spiritual in nature," adding that to create his policy platform he will simply "hand it over to God." Many of the... MORE

Tony Perkins wants it known that, contrary to reports, he was not on the Religious Right's Rick Perry conference call. It is apparently unfair for Rep. Keith Ellison to point out that his opponent is an intolerant anti-Islam right wing activist. I never fails to amuse me when Religious Right groups best known for hating gays decide to speak out on foreign policy issues. It looks like Sally Kern will be promoting her new book on AFA Radio and with Concerned Women for America, so we have that to look forward to. Finally, Peter LaBarbera says "Christians and all...
