Most memorable moment: Since I have been a part of this team was at the 2008 NCAA Championships, where we won our first National Team title. It was an amazing and long awaited accomplishment and I am blessed to have been able to be a part of something so special.
Why Arizona?: I didn't even want to take my recruiting trip down to Arizona my senior year in high school because I was so set on going to another university, but once I stepped off the plane in Tucson I was in a whole new world. I eventually ended up committing on my trip and found myself here a year later, and I never once looked back or questioned my reasons for coming here. Everything from the coaches to my teammates, men's and women's teams, create this unique bond that I can guarantee you will never find anywhere else.
Improvements at Arizona: I haven't just learned a lot about my swimming, but I have learned a lot about myself and have seen myself grow over the past three years. I believe that I have gotten better here at Arizona over the past three years for a few reasons, and it definitely all starts with the coaches. Coach Busch tells us that by the end of our careers, whether that is in 4 years or 40, you will learn to be your own best coach. I am constantly learning about myself and my stroke, what works and what doesn't, and I am always pushing myself to be the best I can be. Every single one of us wants to succeed and see the person in the lane next to us succeed to our fullest potential, so we push each other in and out of the pool day in and day out, while still maintaining this family atmosphere and that, that is something really special.
Favorite Book: Eat. Pray. Love. I read it over this past summer and it is a journey of a woman who travels to 3 countries to figure out what it is she needed to do in life to be successful, happy, and loved. It's the little things in life that paint the big picture in the end.
What's on your ipod?: A little bit of everything. I like to have music for everything I do whether it's running, homework, or bringing back memories.
Favorite Animal: My dog Austin. He's a labradoodle (lab and poodle) and he is basically my only sibling. He is a big baby, but full of love and gets a lot of attention from the family. He took over my roll of only child when I went to college.
Favorite Season: Fall, especially in Chicago. The changing of the leaves and that distinct smell of the season is something I miss being in a place where it is either hot or cool.
Philosophy on Life: Take life as is comes at you, one day at a time. You can't predict the future so enjoy every moment you're in and make the most of your experiences!
If you could choose any location in the world to swim, where would it be?: Tucson. I don't know who wouldn't want to train in a place like this. We are outside all year and have one of the best facilities for training. We are under world-class coaching and get to train with some of the best athletes in the world, our own teammates. We go to a great school and have a competitive, winning tradition in all of our sports. McKale brings all of together everyday to share our passion for what we do and that makes us all a little better. We are the definition of team.

Permissions on the password database may be too restrictive
Bent Bagger <bbagger <at> gmail.com>
Hi I teach a Linux course at the Engineering College in Copenhagen and the subject next time is PAM. To demonstrate how to use PAM I have taken a small program from the O'Reilly book "Linux Security Cookbook" (p.74). Trying to execute the compiled program results in this error message: Permissions on the password database may be too restrictive The funny (?) thing is that if I make /etc/shadow world readable with chmod, the program runs succesfully. This, however, is not a workaround, I like! I hope one of you can provide me with a better solution. Here are some details about my setup: My distribution is Suse 10.0, /etc/nsswitch has both passwd and shadow set to 'compat'. My configuration file in /etc/pam.d is this: # # /etc/pam.d/my_applic # # configuration file for PAM-aware program # auth required pam_unix2.so debug account required pam_unix2.so and finally, here is the application itself: ==============(Continue reading)

Not long ago Robin van Persie was a shoo-in for player of the year - an accolade Charlie Thomas says now belongs to Gareth Bale.
08:56, UK, Tuesday 26 February 2013
A lot of words have been written about Gareth Bale this month. No apologies - here are a few more.
Better get used to it. The Welshman is currently playing the sort of football most can only dream of, and which simply inspires breathless tributes.
His performance in the 3-2 win over West Ham last night (scored two, set up the other) was just the latest in a run of form that is becoming almost supernatural.
What makes it all the more remarkable is that opposition players and managers know what they're up against, prepare accordingly - yet are still powerless to do anything about it.
This was West Ham manager Sam Allardyce before the match: "The team (Spurs) has got to provide him with the service that he needs to express that ability."
And this was Allardyce after the match: "Phew ... " (accompanied by disbelieving shake of the head).
Many of football's great and good had gathered at Upton Park to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the death of one of the all-time greats, Bobby Moore.
Amongst them was current England manager Roy Hodgson. How he must have wished he could select Bale for his World Cup campaign. Because right now the Welshman is taking giant strides towards greatness himself.
It's not just that he has scored eight goals in the last six games for Tottenham. It's the manner in which he is scoring them. The winner last night was just breathtaking, both in its audacity and its execution, a curling, fizzing rocket from fully 30 yards out.
The irony is that, with each performance like this, he is making himself ever more attractive to the likes of Real Madrid, but at the same time helping to ensure that Spurs themselves are playing Champions League football next season.
Andre Villas-Boas' side are now third, two points ahead of Chelsea, four ahead of Arsenal.
Not long ago Robin van Persie was clear favourite for Premier League player of the year. Now, though? Can anyone stop the Welsh Wizard? Bring on the north London derby.

Last year's fashion trends were all about monochromatic and matching, so get ready for this year's trend of mixing unexpected prints, colors and textures together. It's much easier to do than you think. Although it might be an intimidating trend, everybody can achieve the right look a little bit at a time. In order to accomplish a polished look, you should start with a larger print on either the top or the bottom, and work from there. Be careful though, you don't want to overdo your look, so keep all of the other prints simple and subtle. Here are a few street style inspirational shots to get you started.

Do not require each new user to enter a CAPTCHA for your site automatically. Some captchas require the user to jump through hoops just to access content. Only the most dedicated and interested visitors will continue through an unnecessary captchas; many will simply abandon the page. When deciding on an appealing domain name for your website, look into auction sites such as Sedo. These sites offer access to dozens of domain names, including those that were abandoned or sold. Your best bet is going to be to start small, and move up to larger websites. This way you can easily see what you're good at, and what you need to work on. Create the basic pages of a website, such as Contact Us and About Us, and add items as you go along.
When adding videos to your website, you should take into account that some people's Internet bandwidth isn't very high at all. You may want to stream at 5,000 kb/s, but only the fastest cable and fiber connections can handle that sort of bandwidth. This can result in a video that is slow-loading and needs to buffer often. A good web design tip for the newcomer to this field is look at all the tools that are available in the market. You will find an endless amount of resources for great web design in the form of books, articles and online blogs. It is a great way to learn your craft and become a better designer.
Concept sketches are a great way to organize and plan out a website during the earliest, most flexible stages of the web design process. Using this tool will give you a visual of what your site should contain and how it will appear. This is a very good starting point. Be careful when you are adding sound to your website. Sound can often aggravate the user if they haven't explicitly designated the audio to play and is even worse if a volume option isn't present. It's ok to provide links to video or audio clips, but be sure it's the user's choice as to whether they hear it or not.

Recap | Final Stats | Notes
Washington 99, Gonzaga 95
Bank of America Arena; Seattle, Wash.
Sunday, December 4, 2005
WASHINGTON COACH Lorenzo Romar
On Adam Morrison:
"If I could just help all of you out, and help you understand something you might not understand, Adam Morrison is really good. That is a phenomenal performance, probably the best, no question the best performance of anyone I have been sitting on the other bench, as an assistant or a head coach. We contested him all night, and he hit great shots. As crazy as it sounds, I think our guys guarded him pretty good. The tougher the defense was, the higher level he played."
General Comments:
"I couldn't be more proud of our guys. Our guys played a tough brand of basketball. That was as high a level of basketball game as you are going to get, in college. I thought our guys responded. A couple of people asked me, `what about your freshmen in a game like this, Jon Brockman, Justin Dentmon.' But my comment was, it seems like the bigger the game, the bigger they play. Justin Dentmon stepped up big time there in the second half. Jamaal Williams got us going, we felt that we could go inside against them and be effective. I thought, early on, we did a pretty good job of doing that. That is a very good basketball team, but we were able to get it done, I'm very proud of our guys."
On His Technical Foul:
"That was a big, pivotal time in the game, obviously. But prior to that was the play, and I have to watch what I say because I haven't seen the tape, but from where I was standing, I thought Adam Morrison just grabbed us. To the point where he came over and said, `coach, I wasn't trying to be dirty, I wasn't trying to be dirty.' He just grabbed a guy, but it wasn't called and I was probably more upset at that, that that wasn't called. Now you have Brandon Roy, our leading scorer trying to get going, now he has picked up his fourth foul, that we thought was a charging call. But, as I tell officials, a lot of times I go back and look at the tape and I'm wrong. They usually do a pretty good job, and when the dust settles and the emotions clear, but I can't wait to go and watch the tape on that one."
General Remarks:
"We battled through a lot of adversity, and Washington hit a lot of big shots. I am proud of my guys, they got us back in it, with the hodgepodge lineup out there, and we battled, we just didn't come up with enough plays at the end, but Washington hit some big shots, and made some big plays down the stretch.
ON Derek Raivio:
"He just couldn't play. We x-rayed his back, and his lower body was tightening up, and basically he couldn't push off. He tried to warm up in the second half, but he just couldn't go. I don't know what medically is wrong with him."
On the atmosphere difference from two years ago:
"It is pretty obvious. There are a lot more people, and it is a lot more louder."
On playing tough throughout:
"I thought our guys showed character. They stepped up, and hit some big shots--we got some good looks. We had two freshmen on the floor for a long period of time. We had some JC guys. I am proud of how the guys handled it."
On the last play:
"We were looking for an isolation out there. We took too tough of a shot. We should have been patient out there, but Adam makes tough shots all the time, so if the ball is in his hands--that is where we want the ball to be. He was making his shots earlier, so it was pretty much his call. But no, we were not looking for a three."
On the fouls:
"The foul trouble was what we were trying to solve. We got very deep into our bench, and they were out there for quite some time. We were trying to keep those guys out there as long as possible. We did a poor job communicating, and that just goes with experience. Sometimes we had three guys in their defense, and two guys in another. We got a freshman point guard, and some inexperienced. We will solve that though."

Karl Lagerfeld
Karl Lagerfeld (born Karl Otto Lagerfeldt on September 10, 1933) is a German fashion designer, and the host of Liberty City's K109 The Studio. He has collaborated with a variety of different fashion labels, most notably Chanel but also Chloé and Fendi. Furthermore, he owns several labels, which he launched in the early 1980s, in various industries including perfume and clothing. He has also played a role in equipping leading artists.
Karl-Otto Lagerfeld was born 10 September 1933 in Hamburg, Germany, although Lagerfeld has long asserted that he was born in 1938. The German newspaper Bild am Sonntag has quoted his former teacher and classmates as confirming the earlier date. His older sister, Martha Christiane (a.k.a. Christel), was born first in 1931. Lagerfeld also has an older half-sister, Thea, from his father's first marriage. His original name was Lagerfeldt (with a "t"), but he later changed it to Lagerfeld as "it sounds more commercial."[1]Though Lagerfeld has stated that his father was Swedish, journalist Alicia Drake in "The Beautiful Fall" (Little, Brown, 2006) established that Karl's father, Otto Lagerfeld, who made his fortune introducing condensed milk to Germany, was indeed German. According to Drake, Lagerfeld's mother, Elisabeth Bahlmann, was a lingerie saleswoman in Berlin when she met her husband and married him in 1930.

Standard Metals Processing, Inc. (Standard Metals, the Company) (OTCCBB:SMPR), as a result of an acquisition it completed in March 2011, will offer custom, specialty and toll milling services primarily to Junior mining companies based in the western US, Canada, Mexico and Central America.
Toll milling is a process whereby mined material is crushed and ground into fine particles to ease the extraction of any precious minerals contained therein, such as gold, silver, platinum, and rare earth metals. Custom milling and refining can include many different processes to extract precious metals from ore, carbon or concentrates.
The milling services will provide the Company with an immediate and on-going revenue stream and help assuage the impact from the fluctuations in precious metal prices.
The Company's assets include one of the largest private land holdings in Esmeralda County, NV (with one of the largest tailings holdings), historical ore dumps and substantial water rights.
The tailing holdings and ore dumps represent potentially significant precious metal reserves for the Company, akin to a large Junior mining company. The difference, however, with the Junior mining companies, is that Standard Metals' reserves have already been mined, are above ground and require no expense related to exploration. Standard Metals is commencing a Third-party verification to validate the value of the holdings and will comply with all federal, state and local regulatory guidelines for its operations.
Standard Metals seeks to capitalize on rising precious metal prices, greater mineral exploration in combination with a lack of independent toll milling capacity and a dearth of specialized milling expertise by becoming the leading provider of toll, specialty and custom milling services for precious and rare earth metals to mining companies and their investors throughout the world.
Standard Metals plans on extracting what most others can't. An experienced team integrated with versatile facilities and powerful tools will provide custom solutions for your ore needs. These same tools, combined with the art and science of modern metallurgy, will provide maximum yields of precious metals skillfully and quickly.
Customized solutions that compliment your business may include, but certainly not limited to, (a) Analytical Protocol Development, (b) Extraction Amenability, (c) Proprietary Milling Operations, (d) Lab Design & Commissioning, (e) Process Engineering Services, (f) Refining, and eventually (g) Bonded Warehouse Storage
Standard Metals is well positioned to capitalize on a convergence of macroeconomic factors, including: (a) rising precious metals prices, (b) greater exploration, including the re-opening of existing mines with proven reserves, (c) the need for processing capabilities for various precious metals, (d) a lack of independent toll milling capacity, (e) long environmental lead times to build mills, (f) the high cost of building a new mill ($20M - $30M), and (g) the specialized skill in milling as opposed to mining. By providing specialized milling services, Standard Metals is in a unique position to be a very successful company, especially given the current precious metal prices and without the reliance on hit and miss exploratory drilling programs.

Madisonian Fair Use
Michael J. Madison
University of Pittsburgh - School of Law
May 25, 2012
Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal, Vol. 30, No. 39, p. 101, 2012
U. of Pittsburgh Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2012-15
This short essay reflects on developments in the law, scholarship, and practice of fair use since the publication in 2004 of an earlier article on patterns in fair use practice and adjudication. It synthesizes many of those developments in the idea of "Madisonian" fair use, borrowing the separation of powers metaphor from James Madison's work on the US Constitution and applying it, lightly and in a preliminary way, to copyright.

Pope Francis' speech appealing for peace in the Ukraine was spoken with true compassion as to be expected from him. Common good gestures were in store as well, as the scheduled Peace Doves were gathered to be set free in flight for the thousands of spectators at St. Peter's Square, at the Vatican, Sunday, Jan. 26, 2014.
As the "Two white doves that were released by children standing alongside Pope Francis as a peace gesture have been attacked by other birds. As tens of thousands of people watched in St. Peter's Square on Sunday, a seagull and a large black crow swept down on the doves right after they were set free from an open window of the Apostolic Palace."
Both of the white Peace Doves were immediately attacked when released by Pope Francis and two children who assisted, as onlookers gasped as the feathers flew. One Dove was attacked by a large black and grey Crow while the other Dove was attacked by a Seagull who was persistent at tearing out the feathers of the unsuspecting creature of peace. This Dove broke free from the gull as the other Dove was being constantly pecked at by the crow. No one knows why the attack happened as many suspicions started to fly through the crowd.
"Pope Francis has called for "constructive dialogue" between Ukraine's authorities and its people, urging all to renounce violence in the upheaval convulsing their country." Prayers for peace have been a commonplace around the world as the number of recent deaths of anti - war protesters in the Ukraine rises.
No one is sure what happened to the Doves that took off in flight, hopefully they broke free from their oppressors as well. Hopefully temperatures will calm in the Ukraine as well.

On last night's episode of "Catch a Contractor," multi-talented comedian Adam Carolla and his team of private investigator Alison Bedell and her husband Skip, a licensed home-improvement contractor, this team is going after the worst contractors in America. Before Adam became famous for his comedy and other endeavors, he was a contractor, so it is not so much of a stretch for him. Now, the three are on the job to hunt down the crooked people who screw over innocent people, and force them to complete the jobs they left unfinished. If they cannot find these people, they will finish the job and help the family take legal action against these swindlers.
Adam and Skip went to meet with Samantha and Scott whose contractor promised to do magic to their dream home and instead, ripped them off and left them with a house of cards that could virtually fall down on top of them. The actual bid was $43,000, of which they have paid $38,000. The place is a disaster, and this slick devil is nowhere to be found.
The place is just unfinished walls and ceilings; the thermostat was on one wall, but when they took down the wall, the thermostat went with it. They have been using space heaters to stay warm. However, as Skip pointed out, the wall they removed was a load-bearing wall and should have been replaced by a header or engineer-approved beam to hold up the structure. As Skip noted, the ceiling was starting to cave already.
So Jeff Dillman, who is also a model, will be hunted down by Alison, who can find just about anyone flying under the radar. She found him and will be meeting him at the sting house the next day. Sure enough, he showed up at the house, and was confronted by Adam and Skip. He tried to weasel out of it by stating that more money was owed, he did not do the work himself, and stated that the wall he removed was not load-bearing. When given three options, he could finish the job under Adam and Skip's supervision, return their money, or they would help the couple take him to court. As usual, he chose the first option and would be there the next morning.
When he showed up, he denied just about everything that Adam and Skip said were wrong with the job. His apology was about as lame as it could be. When the work was completed as per Skip and Adam's direction, the couple returned to their now livable home. They were in tears at how great it was and the excuses ceased, and a firm handshake and apology were given once again to the couple. Jeff swore that this was his last residential job, which was confirmed. He also went back to school to earn a Masters in Business and recently updated his headshot.

It's true confession time (again).
The Catholic Church tells me confession is good for the soul. But some subjects aren't really "confessional worthy," so bringing them here, to the supportive family of Just.Be.Enough, works for me.
You ready? Here's my confession:
I don't really think about hygiene.
I sometimes forget to shower. I sometimes forget makeup. I very often forget to wash my face. I never wash behind my ears. I will wear the same jeans until they can walk on their own before I wash them. I do brush my teeth every night, but sometimes (ok, a lot), I forget in the morning. I don't wash the sheets as often as I should.
Am I grossing you out? Or are you like me? I know some of you have to be. Right? Please?
Anyway, why am I telling you this?
Because I have daughters and oh-no-what-am-I-going-to-do-to-teach-them-hygiene-when-I-don't-even-practice-it-myself?
Not easy, friends!
I keep forgetting.
My tween is RIGHT at the age where she needs to learn things like making sure she rinses all the soap out of her hair, the importance of brushing her hair daily so knots don't build up, the need for deodorant. And gasp! Some of her friends are even shaving their legs.
And how am I helping? Not much, I'm afraid. Because I keep forgetting.
So to help myself out, I actually made an Excel spreadsheet of the things she needs to do daily and weekly.
Things like brushing her teeth morning and night, brushing her hair morning and night, showering four times a week (for now), washing her face on the non-shower days, wearing deodorant.
She's got the deodorant wearing down – she loves that. But some of the other stuff? If I don't remember she doesn't remember because it's just not something on her radar yet.
And apparently it's not on my radar either. I'd much rather lie around reading books with her until right before bedtime than remember to send her upstairs for her hygiene routine before bed.
And the same goes for myself. I often read until I literally can't keep my eyes open anymore. Then I go to bed without washing my face.
Do you have any tips for us? This non-hygienic family of ours? I could use some! Maybe an Excel spreadsheet of my own to follow…

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between hippocampal volume loss, depression, and epilepsy. Background: There is a significantly increased incidence of depression and suicide in patients with epilepsy. Both epilepsy and depression are associated with reduced hippocampal volumes, but it is uncertain whether patients with both conditions have greater atrophy than those with epilepsy alone. Previous studies used depression measures strongly weighted to current state, and did not necessarily assess the influence of chronic major depressive disorder ("trait"), which could have a greater impact on hippocampal volume. Methods: Fifty-five epilepsy patients with complex partial seizures (CPS) confirmed by electroencephalography (EEG) had three-dimensional (3D)-spoiled gradient recall (SPGR) acquisition magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans for hippocampal volumetric analysis. Depression screening was performed with the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI, 51 patients) and with the structured clinical inventory for DSM-IV (SCID, 34 patients). For the BDI, a score above 10 was considered mild to moderate, above 20 moderate to severe, and above 30 severe depression. MRI and clinical analysis were performed blinded to other data. Statistical analysis was performed with Systat using Student's t test and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results: There was a significant interaction between depression detected on SCID, side of focus, and left hippocampal volume. Patients with a diagnosis of depression and a right temporal seizure focus had significantly lower left hippocampal volume. A similar trend for an effect of depression on right hippocampal volume in patients with a right temporal focus did not reach statistical significance. Conclusions: Our results suggest that patients with right temporal lobe epilepsy and depression have hippocampal atrophy that cannot be explained by epilepsy alone.

I've cooked with escarole before and even grown it in my garden, so we are big fans of this slightly bitter salad green that transforms into a delicate cooked vegetable. Trufflehead's Escarole with Garlic and Hot Pepper is easy and makes a satisfying vegetable side
I had a little trouble finding escarole in February (two different grocery managers told me it was out of season), but when I finally did
locate it at the supermarket I grabbed two heads, so I could make this delicious dish twice.
If you've never cooked with escarole before, there's a great little Trufflehead demo on how to clean it. Escarole hides a lot of mud in
its base so you want to make sure you rinse it several times in your sink or in a big soup pot like I do. Nothing's worse than chomping
down on some grit in your finished dish.
You can also make this recipe into a heartier main dish, Greens and Beans, by adding a can of drained cannelli beans (white kidney beans) and garnishing with grated Parmesan. Italian cooks also traditionally fry up some chopped pancetta (a cured bacon-like product that you can find in many delis) along with the garlic for their Greens and Beans.

His dangerously black eyes looked up at her desperately, a painful cry left his throat as he collapsed to the tile floor, her thin arms still fiercely clung to him. She traced the scars on his back. "Bella, I need you to say it..I can't..please..."
His fingernails dug deeper into her bare thighs as the rest of his body started to tremble.
You look for light On the blurry nights When home is hardly a word...Edward and Bella story...slightly twisted...all human, OOC

What if Edward and James had met years before the baseball game? What if James' kidnapping of Bella was justified revenge?
After Edward leaves Bella in New Moon, life goes on, and she decides to start making the best of what she has. Now in her junior year at Endicott College in New England near Salem, MA, Bella is living a copacetic existence. She loves her job at the local coffee house/bookstore, is doing well at school, majoring in English, and couldn't ask for anything more. Even someone new enters Bella's life, leading her to hope that there can be (love) life after Edward. Unfortunately for Bella, she hasn't totally left trouble behind in Forks. Previously unseen forces have been set in motion, eager for her to fulfill certain destinies. And when a certain vampire family comes back into her life, will it push her in the wrong direction, or be her salvation? Can time heal all wounds or bleed them dry? Bella will soon find out as she nears the Witching Hour.
Entry for the Steamy Movie Crossover Contest featuring the show Friday Night Lights. Jasper, the star quarterback, focuses his life around his one passion, football. That is until Alice shows up, but what's a guy to do when the girl he finds himself falling for is his new coach's daughter?
The year was 1934 and the summer was one of the warmest I had the displeasure of experiencing in the little logging town of Forks, Washington. The usual rainy weather that had been my constant companion these last 5 years had been scarce leaving me to the heat that never seemed to go below 90 degrees even once the sun had fallen beyond the horizon. But the stifling heat was nothing compared to formality of my life. My days had been filled with endless tea times, hours upon hours of practicing the pianoforte and horrid dresses that sucked the life right out of me. That year was also the year that I met a them, the family that changed my how I wanted to live my life.
The Cullen household had been ravaged by a loss that Bella still didn't quite comprehend; Emmett was so wrapped in his own guilt for letting Rose go that he was still a stanger to her. With summer approaching, Bella makes a last ditch effort to convince them all to come with her to visit a part of her family that explains away her own mysteries.
And possibly heals the Cullens' old wounds.
(This is not, under any circumstances a happy-fluffy-summer-fling story. Sorry)

Forks was supposed to be good for him. A change. But Edward didn't like change. It was unavoidable at this point though. He didn't feel seventeen anymore.

Southern Illinois tops Chattanooga, falls to Virginia Tech in opening day of 2013 season.
Feb. 8, 2013
CLERMONT, Fla.-- The Southern Illinois University softball team opened the 2013 season Friday at the Dot Richardson National Collegiate Invitational.
The Salukis recorded a win against Chattanooga in their season opener at the National Training Center Softball Complex before falling to Virginia Tech.
SIU 6, Chattanooga 3 Box Score
The Salukis topped Chattanooga 6-2 to start the afternoon. Brittney Lang was a force in the circle pitching a complete game for Southern Illinois. The senior struck out five batters in the Salukis first win of the season.
Chattanooga brought their bats out early scoring one run in the second inning and following suit in the third, taking a two-run lead over SIU. Southern answered in the fifth when Kelsey Gonzalez singled to bring in Kalyn Harker for the first run of the game. Morgan Barchan repeated the series singling to bring Gonzalez around to the plate, tying the game.
Southern raked in the runs in the sixth inning to edge out the Lady Mocs. Taylor Orsburn sent a shot up the middle to kick-off the inning. The Salukis capitalized on Chattanooga errors and a late-inning double by Kaylyn Harker to pick up four more runs and lead the game 6-3.The Salukis put away their opponents quickly in the seventh inning to close out the win.
Virginia Tech 4, Southern Illinois 2 Box Score
Southern Illinois and Virginia Tech met for the first time ever Friday during the last game of opening day. The Hokies wasted no time recording their first run of the game in the first inning to take a 1-0 lead.
The third inning saw more Virginia Tech runs as the Hokies laid down two singles and a double to record three more runs, which would be their final of the game.
The Salukis struggled to drive in a run remaining scoreless until the fifth inning. Meredith Wilson led off the inning working a walk to be brought in by a Kalyn Harker single for the lone run of the inning.
Southern found its rhythm in the seventh inning, challenging Virginia Tech down to the last out. SIU loaded the bases for two batters but only was able to bring in one more run, stranding the remaining runners on base. The Salukis closed out the game with two runs for a 4-2 loss.
With a 1-1 start to the season, the Salukis will be back in action tomorrow as they take on Fordham University at 12:30 p.m. CT.

Dear all,
Release 0.8.8 is available for download from this moment on. It took a long time for the new release to reach production quality. The first week of 2012 was used to polish things up and add internationalization support within ProjectPier itself. I am pretty excited about the internationalization plugin. Translators do not need to edit lots of files to get the labels right on screen. Companies can change labels to fit their environment using a browser. Administrators can simply edit the label and see the results immediately. Also, the link plugin has a nifty feature: To set the logo; ProjectPier gets a snapshot of the website the link is pointing to allowing you to cut out a part of that snapshot.
For those using 0.8.6, this release has a validated upgrade solution on board. A big thanks to bluesky who offered his production site for upgrading.
Also the emerald curtain theme and theme plugin have been validated to work with 0.8.8 (see the attached picture). The reminders plugin that is mentioned is under development now so you should be seeing a validated reminders plugin soon.
But for now, enjoy 0.8.8
Cheers, Reinier (aka phpfreak)

It's massive, and I know this analogy has been used before, but for a golf enthusiast, it's like being a kid in a candy store.
"(Golf) Professionals and industry executives from around the world are preparing now to open the 2014 golf business season with the first "major" on their industry calendar," states PGA Worldwide Golf Exhibitions Senior Vice President and General Manager Ed Several. "And in 2014, the PGA Merchandise Show will have a major impact on the careers and business success of industry professionals across the globe who will preview and test the newest products; learn from the foremost experts in their fields; and engage with the international golf community through a variety of enjoyable and valuable networking programs."
While the old guard of golf like Titleist, FootJoy, Bridgestone, and Adams will be attracting a lot of the attention, the show also about the new small company with an innovative idea and even the mom and pop inventor that will be meeting potential customers in the Inventor's Showcase.
More than 40,000 golf industry professionals from around the world will be focusing on how they can better not only their golf business, but the golf industry as a whole at the PGA Show.
They will check out the interactive demonstrations, exhibits, products, innovations, and celebrity appearances over the course of the four days.
I will also be at Demo Day, roaming the floor and have one-on-one meeting set up with about a dozen companies to see what they have in store for 2014. Follow me on Twitter at @RickRoswell to stay up to date on the events, my articles, and the PGA Show as a whole.

It's Monday, two days have passed, and the ire hasn't dimmed. Erislandy Lara is still quit angry that two of three judges saw Canelo Alvarez as the better man in their twelve round clash Saturday night in Vegas.
The judge who scored widest for Canelo, one Levi Martinez, drew special scorn from the Cuban, who went from insinuation to straight up allegation as he drew a bulls-eye on Martinez, who declared with his card that the Mexican beat Lara, 9 rounds to 3.
Lara, in many circles, isn't getting much support, as many folks think he spent far too much time "running" from Canelo, the guy who they say was the only guy trying to make the fight a fight. The Cuban talked a great and ferocious game pre-fight, and at the weigh-in, when he said he wanted to break Canelo's face, then and there...but during the fight, spent the majority of rounds in "don't let me get hit" mode, rather than fighting with an intention to inflict harm on his opponent.
Steve Carp of the Las Vegas Review-Journal said he spoke to the two top men at the Nevada Commission, Francisco Aguiler and Bob Bennett, and both men said the Martinez card "concerned them" and would be studied.
Here is the release sent out by Team Lara today (Monday):
LAS VEGAS (July 14, 2014) - After landing more punches and connecting with a higher percentage, Erislandy "The American Dream" Lara (19-2-2, 12 KOs) feels he was robbed in his fight with Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (44-1-1, 31 KOs) that took place at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas this past weekend.
Fact, Lara landed 107 total punches to Alvarez's 97 and had a higher connect percentage (28% Lara - 23% Alvarez). The body shots that Alvarez landed were grazing shots that Lara blocked with his elbows, and most of them came in the round he got cut.
Erislandy sounds off on why he feels he won the fight and deserves an immediate rematch.
"Before the decision was announced, I felt 100% confident I won the fight," said Lara. "The facts don't lie, I landed more total punches. Looking at it from the punch stats, you're supposed score based on clean and effective blows landed. Most of the shots that Canelo landed were body blows that didn't even land cleanly, and most of them came in the round where I got cut. All my punches were clean shots. I out jabbed him and boxed his ears off. The punch stats don't lie...there is no way I lost to Canelo."
"I'm very disappointed in Judge Levi Martinez for his horrendous score. How in the world did he score it 117-111? Before the decision was announced, I stood across the ring and saw Team Canelo and their body language said it all. You could see the depression in their eyes. Everyone on their whole team had a look of despair because they were defeated. When the final score was read, their look went from despair to relief. They knew they lost the fight, period."
"Levi definitely needs to be investigated and he should never be appointed to judge a big fight again. I'm not sure if he's dishonest or inept to be judging at this level, either way he needs to be reprimanded for this horrible decision. This is the second time this has happened to me and I wouldn't want to see this happen to someone else. Like what happen to the judges in New York in the Williams fight, Levi should be suspended. I left communist Cuba to escape corruption and now I see it happening here in the boxing world."
"Oscar De La Hoya said that I have to wait in line to fight Alvarez again because there are 10 others ahead of me. That speaks volumes because he knows Canelo got a gift." Lara concluded. "Who are these 10 guys he's talking about...I want to know. I won this fight and a rematch needs to happen right away."
Strong words from Lara, using the "c" word, corruption, apparently while having no proof, beyond his heated opinion. I'm not prepared to go there, and would say, with all due respect, that Lara maight have swayed Dave Moretti, who had it 115-113 Alvarez, if he'd attacked Canelo with a similar level of fire he shared in this release, than he showed at the MGM.
As for the rematch talk, I'd be less surprised if Kate Upton reached out to me on Facebook, and expressed her desire to snuggle with me in a cocoon of enchantment than if Lara were able to secure a rematch. Canelo's next foe will be a straight ahead banger, in the Alfredo Angulo mode, the sort which plays into his strengths and away from his obvious weaknesses.
Boxing is a sport, but more importantly to the ones who promote it, a business, a business in which "entertainment" is supposed to be at the forefront. Lara's style, when he uses the one he used vs. Canelo, is not one that appeals to the masses..and therefore, he shouldn't be surprised if his opportunities shrink as a result. It will be interesting to see if Lara "gets it," or he clings to his POV on this subject...
Let me finish by making clear I respect Lara's boxing talent, and the need for scorers to reward the ring generals, and not simply be power worshippers. But I do think Mr. Lara and a couple other guys out there who get accused of being too cute would only be serving themselves, in the popularity and revenue generating department, if they concentrated on the offense a tad bit more than their instincts direct them to do during fights.
Your thoughts, readers?
He needs to quit complaining and go investigate tapes of Jimmy Young and Andre Ward.
Oh, Dandy Landy, also "investigate" how to throw more than three combinations.
Pacquiao didn't act like this when he was robbed. But then again, Pacquiao knew he would get eight figures next time regardless, lol.
Lara style in not very Fan friendly, he got his chance an blew it!! now he is on Oscar bad side, he is not getting a second chance Vs Canelo!. Lara Knows, chances of him facing Money may are slim and None, nobody would want to pay for the fight. Shields has been around for a long time, he should of known, they would not win a track meet vs Canelo. The influnce of the fans Booing looks bad on a pay per view show. lara has risked alot more escaping from Cuba, He should of gone for broke, and taking more risks, Canelo is vulneable to getting hurt or KO. lara would on gone in with knockout mentality into the fight!!, He had a 50/50 chance of getting Ko or koing Canelo. He blew it!! With a winning result he would be in line to face Money May or Cotto $$$$. DLH is not going to do nothing for lara Guaranteed.
You're too right Riverside. Lara just crossed himself off the list of big fights. No one wants to fight him, no one wants to watch him and he brings nothing to the table. This south paw needed to do win big but he made a fool of himself wht his style and mocked the paying public.
Now he's crying foul play. There's no mercy in this sport and no amount of song and dance by the loser will improve his situation.
"The American Dream" just need to learn that there are many mirages and nightmares in that dream. Hehehe! Even in Heaven, you had hell. That is why a hell was created to get it outta Heaven.
Getting jobbed comes with the territory. The game is banana CROOKED. And ev'bodee and dey momma go apesyet when things don't go their way. There will nothing done because it's prizefighting, not fair fighting. And few, if any, will pay to see a repeat. Holla!
No investigation is needed, E-Lar. Fifty percent of us saw it for you. Fifty percent saw it for Alvarez. Where it truly counted, 66 2/3 percent had it for Alvarez...33 1/3 percent had it for you.
Judging a boxing match is very subjective. Your constant movement was frowned upon by judges Levi Martinez & Jerry Roth. It was rewarded, along with your quicker punches, by judge Dave Moretti.
Close? Yes.
Controversial? Yes.
Investigation? No.
-Randy G.
9rds to 3 is pretty much a suspect score, the 115-113 scores were more reflective of how the fight went
Good comments by all, particularly Riverside.
Scoring boxing subjectively - not objectively - is one of the few legal acts (that governs fame, success and money) in the world where you don't have to be objective.
And, despite how I can see a case for what Lara is saying, he forgets this.
I think he does, because of his (highly polished) amateur style and how that emphasizes your scoring strikes whilst seeking to de-emphasize your opponents; which is - in one way - what Lara was trying to do in the Canelo fight.
Problem is, when you do that you leave it up to the judge's subjective interpretation as to what your running means and also as to what your opponent's charges represent.
And one thing is for sure, particularly in the eyes of judges that are unsure which way to score a 10 point must round; whilst Lara's evasiveness is up for debate, Canelo's forward charges are not.
Nobody is unsure of whether Canelo wanted to make the fight.
Put with my comments here http://www.thesweetscience.com/forums/showthread.php?16228-A-Few-Last-Thoughts-On-Canelo-s-Win about how Lara was advised by Shields to do more . . . . . .
What can you say?
Lara, whether he is right or wrong, better be careful with these words of his, as his Cuban team mate Gamboa's experiences with Arum clearly show that there are better things you can do for your career than pi$$ off boxing's ivory towers.
And since Lara just joined up with Arum, that doesn't leave a whole lot more of options for Lara.
There were times when he had Canelo stunned and it would have been easier to follow up rather than run, and he simply didn't capitalize; enough to make his own corner express concerns that were themselves dismissed by Lara and/or not acted upon.
This is professional, world class boxing my friend. Here you do or die. It's often that cut throat.
Lara had the ability and chances to change the verdict, but didn't.
He should have known all this.

Turing back the clock on the age of glasnost and perestroika under former Russian Premier Mikhail Gorbachov, 61-year-old Russian President Vladimir Putin got more that he bargained for seizing Crimea from Ukraine March 1. Putin overreacted to the U.S. and European Union-backed Feb. 22 coup while watching helplessly at the Sochi Olympics. Instead of letting the cards play out, Putin grabbed the strategic Ukrainian peninsula, hoping to secure Russian military interests from threats made by Ukraine's pro-U.S. and EU government. Putin grabbed the former Soviet satellite not knowing the global political consequences, especially worldwide condemnation in the U.N. General Assembly, voting 100-11 with 58 abstentions to oppose Russia's annexation of the Ukraine. Putin watched helplessly Yanukovich's Russian-backed government toppled in a coup d'etat.
Rushing into Crimea, whatever the reasons, has begun to backfire on Putin, in part due condemnation on the world stage. While it's true that Moscow enjoys backing from certain allies like Cuba or China, it's also true that it's lost support from the European Union, a $160 billion customer of the Russian Federation. Stationing some 80,000 troops along the Ukrainian border has raised the eyebrows of many former Soviet satellites now fearful that Putin might try to gobble up their territories. Leaders in the Baltic States, Poland and now independent Caucasus region also expressed concerns about Russian troop movements. So far, the U.S. and EU have fashioned feckless sanctions against Moscow involving travel and economic restrictions. Putin has responded defensively, promising to bypass U.S. or EU-based banking practices currently using Visa and Mastercard in the Russian Federation.
Putin's real problems stem from his imperious proclivities shunning the consensus of world opinion opposing his March 1 seizure of Crimea. While Putin has many internal reasons for the action, he has set back Russia's attempt to normalize relations with the Free World. While Obama and EU foreign policy and security Chief Catherine Ashton are on the same page about Crimea, the EU has undeniable dependence on Russian oil and natural gas. EU officials have asked Washington to refrain from harsher sanctions for now, unless Putin encroaches on more Ukrainian territory. "You've seen a range of troops massing along that border under the guise of military exercises," said Obama, asking Putin to pull back his forces. So far, Obama's requests have been rebuffed by Putin, prompting Barack to call Russia "weak" or a "regional player" for annexing Crimea.
Most outside observers see the U.S. as the weaker of the parties in light of Putin's recent territorial moves, something former President George W. Bush and VP Dick Cheney started in 2008. When Putin invaded Georgia Aug. 7-16, 2008, Bush didn't say boo, let alone demand U.N. sanctions or any other consequences to Putin's invasion of Georgia. Obama and Ashton evicted Putin from the G7, canceling plans for Putin's G7 conference in Sochi. If Putin continues to threaten his neighbors, or, for that matter, any other former Soviet satellite, Washington will have to much more than threaten sanctions or beat the war drums. White House critic, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), agreed that there was no military option in Ukraine, requiring more potent sanctions to get Putin to back down. Stripping Russia of its veto power on the U.N.. Security Council would have far more weight.
Obama's problems in Crimea stem from the obvious way in which the Feb. 22 revolution took place. Staging the coup while Putin's hands were tied at the Sochi Winter Olympics didn't sit well with the Kremlin. Too many reports of CIA involvement also didn't help matters, prompting Putin to take more draconic steps. Instead of calling Putin names, Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry should think of more diplomatic ways to pressure Putin to change his mind. If Kerry proposed to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov that the Ukraine's new revolutionary government should offer Russian security guarantees in Crimea, it would be a step in the right direction. All the anti-Kremlin rhetoric by Ukraine's new post-revolutionary government has forced Putin's hand. Getting assurances from the U.S. about Russian security would go along way with Moscow.
Isolating Russia in world opinion applies the most effective pressure on Putin to consider reversing course. Voting against Russia's moves in Crimea, the U.N. has already voiced its displeasure with Moscow's actions. "It may be that they've got additional plans," Obama told CBS Evening News while visiting the Pope Francis at the Vatican. While Putin and Lavrov laugh off the economic and travel restrictions, the fact that the U.N. voted 100-11 with 58 abstentions to disapprove of Moscow's actions in Crimea turns back on the clock on Russia's integration into the international community, especially Europe. If the EU opted to buy petroleum and natural gas from another source, Putin would be hard-pressed to make up lost income in China and the Indian subcontinent. Less public rhetoric from U.S. officials would go a long way in communicating with Moscow.

How BIG?
A definitive question -- and when it comes to growing respectable yields of high potency buds, it's a an important consideration.
Growers usually need to gain some experience to get the hang of planting density, which can be one of the biggest stumbling points in achieving good yields of solid and sticky nugs grown indoors.
While some marijuana strains are genetically predetermined to yield more than others, growing cannabis under lights has a lot of practical considerations that need to be addressed to maximize returns for the time spent growing and paying for necessary inputs like electricity.
If power and grow lights were free, it wouldn't matter, however, being as expensive as both of those requirements are, the goal is often to harvest as much as you can per watt consumed and paid for.
Planting density and sizing once a strain has been selected is key. Marijuana growers need to have the right number of flowering sites in a given area receiving strong and direct light from artificial light sources to realize good harvest weights. With a lot of space between buds and plants, some nice stuff can be harvested, but at a greater expense.
Conversely, you can stuff a lot of plants under the light source and while you may get a decent harvest weight, it can be mostly leafy little nugs that lack density and other qualities found in larger, better developed buds.
Again, the trick is getting the right planting density-which of course depends a lot on the strain you grow, ie does it gain a lot of height and create new flowering sites when switched into the bud phase, or does the strain stop growing and go right into producing buds, staying near the same size as when you triggered budding? This will in part determine how BIG to grow first, as well as plant spacing when finally flipped into budding.
There is a range in the amount of "stretch" that different strains tend to exhibit at the onset of flowering (usually lasting first two weeks after changing to 12/12 light cycle). Management techniques and factors such as fertility can also have an impact.
Some cultivators are limited by the number of plants allowed, so they tend to grow them big. In some instances, VERY BIG (pound plus plants). This is a slightly different discussion, although the same rule applies: the plant needs to get to "X" size and stature before budding begins to potentiate the target yield.
Whether you grow big trees or little bushes there are some universal factors. One of them being container size or the amount of space available for the root system.
While it IS possible to grow a big heavy yielding plant in a small container, typically container size and spacing is going to have a very strong determining factor on how big your plants will finish, especially when grown in soil.
Strains may have different rates of growth, but typically the goal is to have six strong main branches per lineal square foot under the grow lighting source. On average, a 1000w HID (high intensity discharge) grow lamp provides strong light in a four foot by four foot area when operated with a good reflector suspend at an optimal distance above the plant canopy.
For a lot of Indica dominant strains, including Cup-Winning Kush strains, these guidelines work well as a rule of thumb under grow lights, per 4' X 4' area with intense lighting:
25-36 one gallon pots, 5-7 days vegetative growth
9-16 two gallons pots, 10-14 days vegetative growth
6-9 three to five gallon pots, 14-28 days vegetative growth
4 ten gallon pots, 21 to 42 days vegetative growth
1-2 twenty gallon pots, 28 to 56 days vegetative growth
Other determining factors include management practices like pruning, bending and staking (and of course, strain selection). However, getting planting density right and making sure plant growth doesn't become restricted due to issues like crowded root systems while leaving space that is `just right` up top to produce good quality buds (and enough of them) keeps crops on track to good yields for cultivating efforts.

BANGOR-- The Old Town Coyotes boys basketball team got hot at just the right time.
The Coyotes jumped out to a 9-0 lead and never looked back as they rolled to a 64-39 victory over the Poland Knights in the class B state championship game on Friday evening at Cross Insurance Center.
Old Town (18-5) finished the season with 10 consecutive wins.
Eric Hoogterp recorded 26 points, seven rebounds, three assists, and two blocks to lead the Coyotes.
Garvey Melmed won the BDN class B Eastern Maine tournament MVP.
Melmed was held to eight points as he only attempted two field goal attempts. He was fine with Hoogterp doing his thing and being MVP of the state title game.
"He (Hoogterp) loves a great crowd, he got on fire early and he didn't stop,"Melmed said. "I will step back a little bit and let him shoot his shots. As long as we get that win, we got it and now we are on top of the world."
Hoogterp scored seven first quarter points as the Coyotes held a 13-7 lead. Old Town took a 24-13 lead on a Melmed three pointer with 3:16 remaining in the second quarter.
Adam Richardson made a layup late in the second quarter to give the Coyotes a 28-18 halftime lead.
Poland came back from a 19 point deficit in their regional final victory against Greely. The Knights showed that fight early in the second half.
Poland scored the first five points of the third quarter, including Caleb Martin nailing a three pointer with 6:11 remaining to cut the Coyotes lead to 28-23.
The Knights could not cut the deficit closer than five the rest of the way.Old Town put the game away with a 9-2 run to start the fourth quarter.
Mitchell Cole scored 14 points for the Coyotes.Cole got the starting nod with Zack Bartlett out with a serious hand injury.
"Mitch Cole has been waiting on the bench. Zach Bartlett had been a starter for us, he went down with a serious injury,"McDormand said. "Mitch was ready, he is really not a bench guy. If we had a six starters he would be a starter. He had a great tournament."
The Coyotes started believing a gold ball was a possibility as the tournament went on and they continued playing good basketball.
The tournament run started with a preliminary win over Waterville. The Coyotes lost to Waterville in a 2013 prelim game.
"The prelim game was a little stressful because we had to play Waterville,"Old Town coach Brian McDormand said. "They pounded us last year. We are a different team, we had a game like this against Waterville."
Hoogterp added, "I think it was after our prelim game when we beat Waterville by 30, I thought we had a chance to go all the way."
Bartlett came into the game late in the fourth quarter and the Old Town crowd and bench erupted when he scored a basket.
Old Town played against MDI exactly two weeks ago in the first high school tournament game ever played at Cross Insurance Center.
The Coyotes defeated MDI 57-44 in that quarterfinal game..
"We came in and we beat MDI, who beat us twice during the season. Getting over the hump, it was my first time in nine tries we beat MDI since I have been coaching at Old Town,"McDormand said. "We saw some of the upsets and we were believing. We split with all those other teams. We were not really looking at this early in the year. We won 10 in a row to end the year, I think we are as strong as any team around."
The Coyotes knew coming in that they would need to slow down Martin.He scored 26 points in the regional final victory over Greely. Martin was able to get 17 points, but only six in the first half.
"We had to shut down #40 (Martin), he is a good player. He had 26 points against Greely,"Hoogterp said. "We knew if we shut him down we would be alright and that is what happened."
The last state title for Old Town came in 1991, when they won the class A state championship.
"Last five home games of the season, we had a five game winning streak. Coming into the playoffs we knew that we had a good team,"Melmed said. "We beat Waterville pretty handily, we had a good run, played some good teams and came out on top."
Old Town out-rebounded the Knights 31-18.
Poland finishes the season 13-9.
