College Hockey:MASCAC picks: Nov. 23
Did I mention look out for the Owls? Westfield State continues to roll, improving its overall record to 6-1-0, and sits atop the MASCAC at 3-0-0. Bob Miele's club netted 12 goals in its last two games, before being shutout by No. 8 Amherst, 6-0.
Plymouth State grabbed a big victory on Monday night, defeating No.15 Wentworth, 2-1, and has won three of its last four contests. Salem State and Massachusetts-Dartmouth battled to a 2-2 tie in an early MASCAC showdown.
I went 2-1-1 last week, another solid week of picking for me, as I continue to improve my own record.
As we enter the Thanksgiving break, I want to wish everyone and their families a happy and safe Holiday!
Let's look at the picks.
Saturday, November 24
Assumption Greyhounds (1-7-0) at Worcester State Lancers (0-6-0)
Two struggling teams kickoff the Worcester Cup Tournament, and it may be the game that Worcester needs. Worcester has been in a lot of close games this season, while Assumption has yet to win since its opening night victory. I thought the Lancers would get their first win last week, but the bleeding stops now. Worcester 4-3
Sunday, November 25
Salem State Vikings (2-1-1) at Connecticut College Camels (0-2-0)
The Camels of Connecticut College have been slow getting out of the gate, dropping their first two games while being outscored 11-2. Meanwhile, Salem State has played in three close games, with the outcome being decided by tow or less goals. Not today though. All Vikings in this one. Salem State 4-1
Becker/Nichols at Worcester State Lancers
Becker and Nichols square off in the other opener in the Worcester Cup Tournament. Nichols, which is always a strong program, will get by Becker and take on the Lancers. The Bison though, usually have a heavy offensive team and will get by the Lancers. Nichols 5-2
Record to Date: 6-5-2 (14 pts.)

Alexander "Al" Green
Al Green 2016 Congressional Candidate Texas District 9
Al Green Biography from House.gov
[2012 Bio] On January 5, 2011, Congressman Al Green took the oath of office to serve the people of Texas' 9th Congressional District and began his fourth term in the United States House of Representatives. As a veteran civil rights advocate, he has dedicated his life to fighting for those in society whose voices, too often, are not heard.
Congressman Green's chief legislative priorities for the 112th Congress are rebuilding the American economy and stabilizing our housing market. He serves on the Financial Services Committee, where he sits on two subcommittees; Domestic Monetary Policy and Technology as well as Capital Markets and Government Sponsored Enterprises.
Additionally, Congressman Green serves as an Assistant Whip for the Democratic Party in the U.S. House of Representatives. He remains committed to increasing the levels of affordable housing and ensuring that every American realizes the dream of homeownership.
Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, Green's parents taught him the importance of education and instilled in him the drive and determination to succeed. After attending Florida A&M University in 1971, he went on to attend Tuskegee Institute of Technology. In 1974, Congressman Green earned his law degree from the Thurgood Marshall School of Law at Texas Southern University, where he later served as an instructor. As a student, he earned awards in the areas of Federal Procedure and Conflicts.
After graduating from law school, Green co-founded and co-managed the law firm of Green, Wilson, Dewberry and Fitch. In 1977, he was elected Justice of the Peace, Precinct 7, Position 2, where he served for 26 years before retiring in 2004. Throughout his career, Green has earned the respect of his colleagues and a wide cross-section of community leaders who have praised his legal skills, impeccable character and innate ability to communicate skillfully with people of diverse backgrounds.
For nearly ten years, Green served as president of the Houston Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Under his leadership, the organization grew to unprecedented heights, increasing membership from 500 to 3,500 and the staff from one to twenty. Congressman Green would become known as an unwavering defender of equality and a champion of all people. During his tenure, he oversaw the purchase and renovation of a building to serve as the NAACP's home. In an effort to ensure that all Houstonians share in its growing economy, Green created the Houston Fair Share program, which encourages corporations to join with minority firms in joint ventures and to hire minority vendors. He co-founded the Black and Brown Coalition with Judge Armando Rodriguez. This organization brings together Houston's African American and Hispanic communities to work on issues of common interest.
As a testament to his exceptional service to the community, and in recognition of his outstanding professional achievement and superior leadership ability, Congressman Green has received numerous awards. These awards include: Texas Association of REALTORS Legacy Award, 2011; Texas Black Democrats' Profiles of Courage Award, 2007; the AFL- CIO MLK Drum Major Award for Service, 2007; Ebony Magazine's 100 Most Influential Black People, 2006; and the NAACP Fort Bend Branch Mickey Leland Humanitarian Award, 2006. Green was honored for his outstanding accomplishments by the City of Houston with "Al Green Day." Mayor Bob Lanier cited him as a "vigorous spokesman for fairness, justice and equality for all," and cited his "distinguished reputation for his ability to bring together people of different ethnic, political and social lives."

Hard Rock Cafe
Drink in the American rock and roll atmosphere at this famous restaurant.
The Hard Rock Cafe London
The brainchild of Isaac Tigrett and Peter Morton, the first Hard Rock Cafe opened its doors in London, England June 14, 1971. Attracting customers with first-rate but moderately priced casual American fare, warm service and ubiquitous Rock 'n' Roll music and sensibility—Hard Rock Cafe became an instant classic.
Beginning global expansion in 1982, Tigrett and Morton agreed to develop their own Cafes in various parts of the world. Morton opened Hard Rock Cafes in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago and Houston, while Tigrett opened New York, Dallas, Boston, Washington, D.C., Orlando, Paris and Berlin—then later sold his interest to Mecca Leisure. In 1990, The Rank Group, Plc., a London-based leisure company, acquired Mecca and continued expansion of the concept in their geographic territory. Later Rank acquired Hard Rock America from Morton, and Hard Rock Canada from Nick Bitove, then consolidated worldwide control of the Brand. With this came one of the most universally recognized trademarks on the globe.
Boasting more than 104 Hard Rock Cafes in over 36 countries, Hard Rock Cafe is a truly global phenomenon. From our launch in London, England, to major city expansion in New York, L.A, Paris and Tokyo, then onto exotic and far-flung locales such as Kuala Lumpur and Taipei, Hard Rock offers an amazing experience to our devoted and ever-expanding clientele. Our unparalleled memorabilia collection consists of 60,000+ pieces which rotate from restaurant to restaurant, providing the world's most comprehensive visual history of rock 'n' roll. This includes our awe-inspiring collection of classic guitars and other instruments, posters, costumes, music, lyric sheets, album art, platinum and gold LPs, photos and much more. Like any "living museum" worth its salt, Hard Rock Cafe's memorabilia collection remains very much a work in progress. Hence, we are constantly expanding our collection as new music and new music history is made every day!
For more information please visit www.hardrock.com
Georgian House Hotel is ideally situated in a very central location, so visiting sights all over London is quick and easy. Why not book Georgian House Hotel when you visit the Hard Rock Cafe? You can book online or email to make a reservation on email@example.com, or telephone on 0044(0)207 834 1438.

TUCSON, Ariz. � At various points throughout the season, Arizona football alumni letterwinners have the opportunity to reconnect with their alma mater through a variety of events. This year, Arizona Athletics will host the inaugural Super Wildcat Weekend with the premier event being the Arizona Football Spring Game on Saturday, April 12, at 1 p.m. MST.
Super Wildcat Weekend will provide Arizona football alumni an opportunity to reconnect with the program through participating in a golf tournament, a letterwinner reception hosted by head coach Rich and Rita Rodriguez, a celebrity flag football game and a tailgate coupled with the spring game.
"Part of the reason that guys come back is the gravitation towards Coach Rodriguez and the program," Arizona Alumni Letterwinner Coordinator Raymond Wells said. "I think he has been very open for alumni and letterwinners to be a part of the program. He has a great understanding and awareness for what the alumni can do for the program."
Rodriguez is not only excited for the opportunity for his players -- especially freshman and incoming players -- to perform in front of a crowd, but also looks forward to connecting with former letterwinners.
"It's a great weekend for everyone associated with the University of Arizona," Rodriguez said. "There are a lot of activities going on and alumni events. For a lot of the guys, it's the only time of the year that they can connect because they get so busy in the fall. I want them to enjoy it. It gives the staff and I a chance to meet the guys that we haven't met yet. We also want them to get to know us as well."
Arizona football will begin the alumni festivities by partaking in the golf tournament, which is set for Friday morning. Members of the Arizona coaching staff alongside approx. 100 former players will participate in the event at Westin La Paloma Resort.
That evening, there will be a dinner reception for all football letterwinners to attend. For the first time, Rodriguez will host the event at his home. There, players will have a chance to network and reminisce on their own football experiences.
"What alumni do for the program is through word of mouth - being a positive reinforcement in the community," Wells said. "A lot of former players are now coaches and having a good relationship with our program here ultimately gives us a stronger network as far as kids knowing about Arizona when it comes to recruiting. They come back to Tucson and connect to the program but when they go back it really gives us a strong network."
Rodriguez also understands the importance of alumni networking and what they are able to contribute back to the program.
"Obviously, they put a lot into this program, so they feel a sense of ownership which is good," Rodriguez said. "They can also help us in recruiting wherever they live whether that's in Arizona or not. People know who they are as a former Arizona football player. They can talk about the good things. It's going to help us in recruiting."
On Saturday, the first A-Club Letterwinners flag football game will take place at 11:15 a.m., followed by a tailgate lunch prior to the game. The teams will be coached by Ricky Hunley and John Fina. Players will include letterwinners from football, baseball, women's basketball, tennis, swimming and diving and volleyball. Full team rosters will be announced in this week's Wildcat Wednesday.
Simultaneously, Lance Briggs will be at his annual football camp at Tucson High School where he will spend his time with the Tucson community alongside former players. From there, he will bring the group to watch the spring game.
With the spring game starting at 1 p.m. MST, former athletes will have the chance to bring together their experiences and enjoy the annual game that brought them back together.
"What this weekend is about is getting our former athletes back on campus,," Wells said. "(We want to them to get) reconnected with the athletic department, coaches and programs, and go back and be a sound board for us in their communities."

Sunny graduated from Westminster College in 2007 with a BA in psychology. During her studies Sunny worked as a research coordinator on neurological clinical trials for multiple sclerosis such as the Teva Nabscount study, which examined how the implementation of regularly scheduled neutralizing antibody (NAb) tests in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients receiving high-dose therapies and how this ultimately affects treatment patterns, versus the usual care of patients. One of the issues that came up inspired Sunny to develop a career in public health, was that many patients enrolled in these clinical trials were unable to afford the cost of their MS drugs. Many of the pharmaceutical companies have patient assistance programs so that patients can afford their treatment, however even with these cost effective options, many of which are unable to maintain the care that is needed. This issue is part of a greater problem where many people in low resource communities are unable to access healthcare locally, nationally and globally. Sunny is most interested in health policy and access to healthcare on a global level. Currently, Sunny is a part-time student in the MPH Program. She works for the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine as a research administrator, which entails running a research lab and managing grant proposal submissions for a principal investigator researching diabetes and periodontal disease.
Anna Barnwell graduated in 2010 from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee with a BA in psychology and medicine, health, and society.

Tirza graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in May 2012, where she spent much of her time engaging in activities that aligned with her interest in public health. In addition to working at Gillings School of Global Public Health, where she became exposed to a broad range of public health research, Tirza focused on the issue of global water quality and quantity by establishing an organization called A Drink For Tomorrow. As a student-run group, they worked to raise awareness for the global water crisis and funds to build two wells in rural Guatemala. Further, she had the opportunity to gain a better understanding of the meaning of public health by volunteering abroad on medical brigades in Honduras. On these trips, where they concentrated on facilitating general medical practice and pharmacy, Tirza learned that the numerous medical problems encountered by the Hondurans could never be fully addressed without public health. From this point on, she grasped public health as a way to improve the health of communities at the intersection of a variety of efforts such as education, the environment, lifestyle and more. With a great passion to protect the health of populations, she considered the many ways that public health professionals prevent problems from happening and re-occurring. Tirza feels that she could make the greatest impact on the largest number of people by pursing work in public health policy. She is currently employed by the University of Pennsylvania's Center for Interdisciplinary Research on Nicotine Addiction, working as a clinical research assistant and counselor on a study that evaluates the effectiveness of a smoking cessation medication among HIV/AIDS-infected individuals who smoke.

Monique McDermoth graduated in 2009 from Princeton University with a BA in sociology. While at the University of Pennsylvania, she has spent the last three years doing patient recruitment for grants involving Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) and Testicular Germ Cell Tumors (TGCT). Monique served as a Family Health Advocate - using Motivational Interviewing to better understand the needs of men and women in IPV relationships. As a clinical research coordinator in the Abramson Cancer Center, she built upon her patient recruitment skills within the TGCT grant to include familial recruitment while getting more familiar with the Institutional Review Board submission and review process.
Through these seemingly disconnected positions, Monique was able to understand the impact of IPV on women's health, in addition to seeing the possible deleterious effects of chemotherapy on male fertility as a result of a TGCT diagnosis. These two projects have fueled her passion for women's health/women's fertility research and the understanding of how health outcomes are affected by psychosocial factors, disease construction and access to contraceptives. Monique is currently enrolled on the generalist MPH track and hopes to design community and evidence-based interventions to better women's health locally and globally.

Maureen has worked in the pharmaceutial industry as a bench scientist for ten years. In this environment, the focus is on identification of a viable disease target, and development of effective treatment methods. This model, while valuable, centers on treatment as opposed to prevention. Maureen believes the public health sector offers the opportunity to intervene and effect chagne before disesase overwhelms a community, be it biological or social disease. Maureen believes the direction of our society would benefit from changing our focus on cure to a focus on prevention and personal responsibility. This will require candid communication among many groups to better understand individual community differences and belief systems which are often key barriers to successful implementation of public health practices. Maureen has seen within her own circle of family and friends the gap between public health problems identified through solid scientific research and the resulting distilled message relayed to the larger community. Often, the message is miscontrued, the intent lost, and change does not happen. Through study, she hopes to gain the necessary skills to identify and evaluate public health disparities and then effectively communciate potential solutions to the individuals or communities affected.

There she worked one-on-one with children, in collaboration with their parents and doctors, to develop resources and programs that served the specific emotional and developmental needs of the chronically ill pediatric patient. Her experience at Shaare Zedek sparked her curiosity in the patient-parent-provider dynamic and its impact on compliance, health literacy and disease management. Upon returning to the U.S. Deena began to question where children actually fit into the national health literacy agenda and how parents' and caregivers' own health literacy influences a child's ability to acquire, process, and understand health information. She recently contributed an article entitled "Building Rapport with the Pediatric Patient: A Retrospective Perspective" to PEDIATRICS: A Competency-Based Companion (Elsevier 2011) and is now working part time at The Nemours Center for Children's Health Media (KidsHealth.org) as a policy analyst.

August is here, which means that hunting season is starting and fishing trips to Mexico have been planned by Big Bad Dad. This means making sure that most of the venison and fish have been consumed before the next harvest comes in. This isn't too hard when you have a garden full of fresh herbs and product, and a smoker on the deck set up and ready to go.
Smoked Tuna with Sauteed Summer Squash and Zucchini
This is not a specific recipe, just a record of what I did. Since there is so much room to substitute ingredient, experiment, add your favorites, and most importantly have fun.
1. Take your tuna steaks and marinade for a few hours in the refrigerator in your favorite marinade. I used a store bought fish marinade from our discount market. It was O.K. but too spicy. I would have preferred something sweeter like teriyaki sauce. I also marinade the fish in a large freezer bag, but you can do it in a non-reactive bowl.
2. Get the smoker going and smoke the fish for a couple of hours. I'm not going into how to use a propane smoker grill. There are good directions on ehow, and ezine articles. But if you have the chance to buy an inexpensive smoker grill or borrow someone's, you'll fall in love with it. They're very easy to use, and not too much of a pain to clean. The only draw back is that you have to be at home watching it a bit, unlike a crockpot. Since smoking can take a few hours, you can plan to work on the yard or sit outside reading and working on your tan while you smoke.
3. About 30 minutes before the fish is ready, chop up your squash and zucchini and some onions. My husband chopped up a couple of small onions, a very large zucchini and a big summer squash. It was so much that I had to use two pans.
4. Heat up pan(s) add olive oil and vegetables. Sautee. Add herbs, salt, pepper, etc. to taste. I used sea salt and dried garlic seasoning from Costco. I didn't stir the veggies enough and a few browned and got a little crispy. A good accident!
5. From the garden, my husband brought in sprigs of parsley, Texas terragon, basil, and sage. I chopped up quite a bit of herbs, and wondered if I had too much. Luckily it was perfect. I'm not used to fresh herbs and don't realize that you can use a lot without overpowering the rest of the food.
Also, I couldn't find my cool herb mincer. Instead, in an act of desparation, I used my pizza slicer, which is pretty darn sharp. It was easy to roll the wheel over the herbs to chop them up.
6. With sadness, we noticed that the fish wasn't very moist. The problem with smoking things the first time is that you're never really sure if you have cooked the meat or fish enough. We should have taken it off the smoker 30 to 60 minutes earlier. Since it was dry, I flaked it over the sauteed veggies on my plate, using the juice from the veggies to revive the fish. Delicious!

Wildfire Victims in Larimer County Rebuild Home With Burned Trees [VIDEO]
If ever there were people who truly made the most of a bad situation, it was this Colorado couple.
If ever there were people who truly made the most of a bad situation, it was this Colorado couple.
A brush fire started late last night on the north side of Windsor Lake during the town's fireworks display at Boardwalk Park.
According to the Greeley Tribune, the fire started around 9:45 p...
A number of wildfires continue to burn in Colorado. We have the latest.
The human being is an amazing creature no matter how you slice it up. I wrote a story last week (Click here to read it) about a little boy who was trying to replace a police department patch collection he had that honored his fallen uncle who was a police officer. Mother Nature would have other plans as his collection was destroyed in their family home, along with 500 others in the Black Forest Fire outside Colorado Springs. What has happened since that story is one of the most amazing things I have seen in a long time.
I'm not sure what's up but it must have something to do with the stars not being in alignment or something. For the second summer in a row, thousands of acres here in Colorado are being consumed and this summer could be the worst yet.
I wrote a story yesterday about a boy in Colorado Springs who was trying to replace a police department patch collection lost in the recent Black Forest Fire that honored his Uncle, not his Father, who lost his life in the line of duty.
The Black Forest Fire has done more damage in a week then we care to think about but when a fire destroys a home, the actual home is the last thing on someone's mind. Many things can be replaced, some can't and some need help replacing memories and futures.
Colorado has again been hit hard with wildfires before the official arrival of Summer has even made it's way into the state. The worst of these fires is obviously the fire still burning in the Black Forest area outside Colorado Springs. This Thursday, we all will have a chance to help out no matter where you are.
If you have sat around a table with friends or messaged each other in the last few weeks, surely someone has said "the whole state of Colorado seems to be on fire". Other comments probably include that it's only June, here we go again. It is true, it does seem like we have had our share of fires this year and the recovery is going to take a long time and a lot of money.
There are over 1,000 firefighters battling the 15,000 acre Fire in El Paso County. The Colorado National Guard has been right by their side the whole time. I have some pictures from the 1157th Engineer Firefighter Company of the Colorado National Guard.
The Galena Fire west of Horsetooth Reservoir is 45% contained and is still estimated at 750 to 1,000 acres.
All evacuations for the Galena fire west of Horsetooth Reservoir will be lifted tonight at 8:00 p.m. tonight (Saturday). Residents in the affected area will be allowed to return home at that time.

I have just started dabbling in Debian and I really love Firefox. I have Firefox installed, but I can't figure out how to get Flash in Firefox. All of the online guides I have tried lead to one dead end or another. Can anybody walk me through how to get Flash working in Firefox?
Without having direct experience in the matter, doesn't Debian have a package manager which you can search for Flash and it will install it automatically? I know the last time I forayed into playing with Ubuntu on my laptop I used the package manager to install flash and the problem was solved. If nothing else I am sure you can simply take it to the console and do a dpkg -i (package).deb after downloading the .deb file...otherwise an apt-get should work if you could get the package name. I will look into this for a bit to see if I find anything

The Indian Economy: From Growth to Stagflation to Liberal Reform
A review that considers the optimistic scenario that India was on a high growth path and would follow China's path with a lag (as its reforms started in 1991 compared with China's in 1980) which would produce an economic miracle.
Youth Employment Crisis in India
A comparison of two regional economic communities – the East African Community (EAC) and the Southern Africa Customs Union (SACU) – suggests that deeper intra-regional, and in particular intra-industry, trade ties have contributed to the EAC's resilience to external output shocks.

Figure 2. Morphological changes in PC12 cells with different treatments. Cell morphology was examined under a phase contrast microscope 24 h after incubation with phosphate-buffered saline (A), 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) (B) and MPP+ plus 3-n-butylphthalide (NBP) (C). Twenty-four hours after MPP+ treatment, some of the PC12 cells died (arrows), leaving cells that appeared shrunken and with short processes (B). In contrast, in the NBP-treated groups the dendritic processes surrounding the cells were largely preserved (C), suggesting that NBP protected neuronal cells from MPP+-induced death.

Piggy Paint Eco-Friendly Nail Polish | Review
October 10, 2012 by admin - Jennifer
Filed under Reviews
Company: Piggy Paint
Item Reviewed: Piggy Paint
Piggy Paint is a natural, eco-friendly nail polish designed for fancy girls. Its non-toxic, hypoallergenic formula makes it safe to use on all piggies. Piggy Paint dries to a hard, durable finish that can easily be removed with our eco-friendly, low odor Piggy Paint nail polish remover. Both are made in the USA!
Both my girls love painting their nails and while my oldest daughter uses a variety of nail polishes on her nails I only use Piggy Paint on my youngest daughter, especially since she has the tendency to bite her nails when she is nervous. She loves all the bright colors that Piggy Paint has and asks everyday to have a new color put on. My oldest daughter used the lightest pink shade (far left side) and she was asked at school what color it was and what brand and when she said Piggy Paint her friends asked where they could get it. She even lent out her bottles so they all could try it. Every single one of them came back to her when they returned the bottles and said that they loved not only how the color looked on them but that they liked that it didn't have the typical nail polish smell.
These would make great stocking stuffers for all the girls on your list this upcoming holiday season! I am going to work on getting my girls their line of nail pens for this holiday!

Last week I met an old friend at a local coffee shop in Royal Oak. Busy with careers, kids and the rigors of life, we hadn't seen each other in over a year. Sitting at our favorite table, we drank our lattes while her Blackberry buzzed, notifying her of numerous new emails, texts and voice messages.
Disheveled and tired my dear friend explained how she was so overworked that she felt like she was losing her mind. This past year her employer had reduced its labor force by 55% and forced the remaining employees to take a 20% pay cut. Her workload is so overwhelming that she is forced to work long hours and weekends. She sleeps about 4 hours a night and feels constantly stressed out. She began crying as she explained that the horrible job market in Michigan has trapped in her miserable job! I reassured her that she is not alone and there are ways to help her situation.
In fact, many employees feel squeezed by their employers in this dreadful job market. Many companies expect employees to do more work for less money. And the current job market gives employers the power to make unreasonable demands with little fear that the employee will say "no". How do you know if you are being squeezed by your employer? Ask yourself the following questions:
Are you expected to work more than 8 hours a day for no additional compensation?
Are you expected to work weekends to complete projects?
Are you expected to be available via email, voicemail or text messaging outside of normal business hours?
Have your family and friends commented on your long work hours and lack of attendance at social functions?
Are you always thinking about the work you didn't get done and the work you need to do?
Do you lose sleep over your job?
Does your employer make comments about the job market and how thankful you should be to have a job?
Do you feel unappreciated by your employer?
Have you been asked to take a pay cut and work longer hours?
Are doing the job of more than one person?
If you have answered "yes" to two or more of these statements, then you may be being squeezed by your employer. In most cases, there are simple things you can do to better your situation:
1) Set limits to the amount of hours you are willing to work per week. And stick to it.
2) Shut off your cell phone and close your laptop when you are home for the evening. If you are unable to do that, then don't reply to any business related correspondence.
3) Ask your employer to hire additional staff.
4) Don't take on any extra projects. If you are doing the work of two people, your employer will not hire any additional staff. When the employer realizes that projects are not being completed, he will be forced to hire someone to help you.
If you feel like your situation can't be bettered, then it is time to dust off your resume and start looking for a new job. Despite the news reports, many companies in our area are hiring. You may have to look a little harder, but you will find them.

Senior Brittany Copeland topped her own school-record time in the 5,000-meter run at the Raleigh Relays this weekend.
April 1, 2012
Women's Final Results | Men's Final Results
WILMINGTON, N.C. - The East Carolina track and field program teamed up with former Colonial Athletic Association Rival UNC Wilmington and emerged victorious for the first time ever over Mountain schools Appalachian State and Western Carolina in the Fourth Annual Mountains vs. Beaches Meet in Wilmington.
It was a clean sweep for the Beaches teams as the men won 354.5-310.5 and the women came out on top 353-321. ECU produced 33 top-three finishes to buoy its effort.
The Pirates did their part by winning 14 event titles, including a school-record performance by senior Dennis Aliotta in the shot put where he threw 17.92 meters. Junior Tiffany Harris was responsible for a total of four titles during the weekend with her three individual wins in the 100-meter dash (11.74), 200-meter dash (24.12) and the long jump (5.83 meters) and joining with Tania Minkins, Tyshonda Hawkins and Erin Tucker to take gold in the 4x100 relay (45.45).
Michael Quercia topped the field in the 800-meter run with a time of 1:54.20 before taking second in the 1,500-meter run, clocking in at 8:56.34. Joseph Samuels also continued his solid campaign with a win in the 110-meter hurdles with a time of 14.25.
Stephen Hodapp added to ECU's gold medal haul, jumping 4.65 meters, and Aliotta followed suit with a victory in the hammer throw at 61.73. Teammate Montrell Morrow fell just behind in the hammer with a second-place result (60.11 meters). Rounding out the first-place finishes for the men was Matthew McConaughey in the javelin, as he recorded a mark of 63.01 with Sam Barnhardt taking second at 57.43 meters.
Morrow and Aliotta also showed well in the discus, capturing second and third with respective marks of 48.75 and 48.20 meters. As for the long jump, Austin Lewis checked in at second place by posting a mark of 7.20 meters.
On the women's side, Brooke Kott earned valuable points for the Beaches team in the 1,500-meter run, taking first place with a time of 4:35.00 while Amanda Tomlin emerged victorious in the 3,000-meter run by outdistancing the field at 10:09.57. Tomlin also recorded a third-place showing in the 1,500 - clocking in at 4:40.55
Rachel Webb represented well for the Pirates in the pole vault, winning the event with a mark of 3.75 meters. The always-consistent Kim Kanala added another title for East Carolina in the hammer as she posted a throw of 55.63meters while Kayla Padgett complemented that performance with a third-place result at 46.87 meters.
A pair of second-third-place showings were turned in by Aiesha Goggins (54.87) and Tyshonda Hawkins (55.85) in the 400-meter run to go along with Krista Vincent (41.60 meters) and Rebecca Cooper (40.75) in the javelin.
A quartet of women also represented East Carolina in the Raleigh Relays this weekend as senior Brittany Copeland smashed her own school-record time in the 5,000-meter run. She produced a time of 16:09.67 which is currently the nation's top mark.
The Pirates continue their outdoor campaign next weekend, heading to Gainesville, Fla., for the Florida Relays. The meet is slated for April 6-7.

Was slicking up some arrows tonight with some turtle wax spay stuff. It reminded me of what I did about a week ago. Got out of the truck bowed the bow . Got all camoed up went to spray some cover scent on me (some dirt smelling stuff not sure if it works or not but I have it so use it. Any way I start spraying myself down and then I realized I'm getting a wax job, grabbed the wrong bottle . .Did not try any calling just chased the fuzzies. but I was slick and water proof. I'm with a lot here scents really make no or little difference. Good thing I was not on a expensive elk hunt or something.
New cover scent for coyotes

When browsing websites with Chrome sometimes I can see a green lock and encryption info inside. It says the connection with this website is 128-bit or 256-bit encrypted with TLS1.2. So I'm wondering that is that possible to use 512-bit or higher encryption on websites?

Not with the current TLS standard (v1.2), the strongest algorithm it appears to support is only Camellia or AES with 256 bit key lengths. The strength and type of the cipher actually used for a connection depends on the server's configuration and the client's browser. When browsing the internet it can be similar to a lottery regarding the quality and strength of the encryption you actually get on each site.
Remember, if you simply serve up the Javascript code from the web server using TLS and your custom code runs 512 bit encryption then your security is only as strong as the TLS connection itself. If an attacker breaks the TLS connection or performs a MITM attack, they can modify the Javascript in transit to remove the custom encryption completely. TLS is not so good, so this remains a real possibility. A signed Javascript extension is the way to go.
TLS does not support any cipher suite combination with a symmetric key size larger than 256 bits. Asymmetric key sizes are available up to 15360 bits, which correspond to a 256-bit symmetric security level.
RFC5246 lists the available cipher suite combinations for TLS 1.2
It should be noted that the symmetric security of TLS is not the weak point, and 128-bits should be more than secure enough for the next 30 years.
