Although most of the major press will focus on the 62nd Anniversary Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring Fueled by Fresh From Florida, there are several days of racing preceding the historic endurance classic. The SCCA Pro Racing Mazda MX-5 Cup Series Presented by BFGoodrich Tires starts 2014 at Sebring International Raceway, for the third season in a row, with twin 45-minute timed races on Thursday, March 13, at 5:05 p.m., then again on Friday, March 14, 8:10 a.m. Qualifying for both events takes place on Wednesday, March 12, at 5:50 p.m.
Aside from battling for the Mazda MX-5 Cup Championship, each driver is also fighting to earn the Mazda Motorsports Development scholarship. The prize, which is given to the series champion, is a funded ride in the next step up the motorsports ladder for 2015. Stevan McAleer, the 2012 series champion, spent 2013 in the Grand Am Continental Tires Sports Car Challenge series, earning two wins and Rookie of the Year honors. Last year's champ, Christian Szymczak, will delay his scholarship until the 2015 season.
The race will be filled with competitors who call the sunshine state home. Andrew Charbonneau (No. 15 ALRARA Racing MX-5), of Delray Beach, Fla., will make his first Mazda MX-5 Cup start. While he may be a rookie, Charbonneau has some serious racing credentials foremost of which is a 2010 Spec Miata National Championship.
The Sebring-based Sick Sideways group should be in the mix for a podium during this two-race event. John Dean, of Sebring, Fla., returns to his home track after logging a very strong second half of the 2013 season. Driving the No. 16 Projections Research/PPG MX-5, Dean has the opportunity to lead his team to a quality finish on home turf.
Also part of then Sick Sideways crew are Nathanial Sparks (No. 8 Bimmerworld MX-5), of Spanish Fort, Ala.; Daniel Bender (No. 3 Bravo Trailers MX-5), of Glencoe, Ill., and rookie Ethan Low (No. 40 K&M Logistics/D&T Productions MX-5), of Clearwater, Fla. This will be the third year that Sparks will be competing at Sebring in Mazda MX-5 Cup trim, and will look to improve from the third- and fourth-place finishes he notched last year. Bender will make his second series start at Sebring, but this is the first in which he is associated with Sick Sideways.

Dozens of teens at the TD Bank Garden concert in Boston, Mass. were sent to hospitals on Wednesday night. Nearly 40 teens were hospitalized and 50 more were treated on site, according to ABC News reports. Drugs and alcohol use were reported as the direct cause by some of the concertgoers who paid to watch Avicii perform.
The affected Avicii fans were under the influence – most likely from the popular ecstasy drug, "Molly" – which required many to be restraint to control their erratic behaviors. "Molly," also known as "Mandy" in the United Kingdom, continues to be a popular and most widely used drug at rave concerts; the drug intensifies stimuli particularly at night clubs due to their amazing smoke and laser light shows during electronic music performances.
Locally known as the Boston Garden, TD Garden's ticket sales website posts a list of restrictions to those who purchase and plan to attend their multi-purpose arena; the list outlines that drugs or drug paraphernalia are prohibited at the center.
Musician Tim Bergling, his stage name Avicii, is currently doing a world tour, performing in the United States and abroad this summer. The band was scheduled at the TD Bank Garden, formerly known as the FleetCenter, located on 100 Legends Way to start at 7:30 p.m that evening.
The 24-year-old "Wake Me Up" singer has over 15 million fan followers on their official Facebook fan page. The two-time Grammy Award winner appeared in the music scene in 2006, delighting fans with his use of electronic-stylized music. DJ Magazine also named Bergling as the 100 Top DJs in 2012.
The "Levels" music producer also belted out hit songs, "Sunshine" and "Hey Brother" for the band.
The hot band of today's music, Avicii is predicted to be around for a while with millions of fans worldwide – it also looks like "Molly" as well.
What concerts or performers are you planning to attend this summer? Are you a fan of Avicii?

HONOLULU (AP) - Dee-Dee Wheeler scored nine of her 21 points during a key second-half run in No. 21 Arizona's 66-57 victory over Hawaii in the fifth-place game of the Rainbow Wahine Classic.
Wheeler scored nine straight points in a 12-6 Arizona run that broke a 41-41 tie in the second half and gave the Wildcats (3-2) the lead for good.
Danielle Adefeso added 12 points, and Aimee Gryzb had 11.
Hawaii got within two points three times midway through the second half, the last on Jade Abele's jumper with 6:10 remaining. But Arizona held the Rainbow Wahine scoreless for the next four minutes and built the lead back up to eight.
Callie Spooner's two free throws broke the drought, the last Hawaii would score in the game.
Abele led Hawaii (1-4) with 21 points, and Pam Tambini added 11.

Kim Kardashian & Kanye West Planning $20 Million Wedding, Says Tab
"Kim's Surprise Wedding," blares the cover of OK!, which reports that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are set to tie the knot in a "$20 million" ceremony.
The tabloid, which earlier this month claimed the pair was heading towards a split (BOGUS), and then last week said Kardashian was demanding a proposal for her October 21 birthday (NEVER HAPPENED), now alleges the couple is "planning a spectacular wedding — designed to make the world forget her disastrous, 72-day union to Kris Humphries."
Of course another over-the-top Kardashian wedding would draw absolutely zero comparisons to her 2011 nuptials.
Genius plan!
Anyhow, a so-called "source" for the mag says, "She wants a classy but extravagant ceremony… She's figured $20 million should get her the very best of the best."
The purported "insider" explains that "some people were somewhat taken aback" by Kardashian rushing into marriage again, but notes, "Her sisters love Kanye. No one has told her to slow down. It just feels right."
OK!'s source goes on to detail the couple's supposed elaborate ceremony, with a "half a million" dollar wedding planner, "several" wedding dresses to choose from and "8.5 million" worth of jewelry.
But wait, there's more!
The alleged insider adds, "Kim's all-time favorite singer is Celine Dion, and she has had her people reach out to her" about performing at the nuptials.
"Another option they're strongly considering is Beyonce, who will be there anyway."
Kardashian and West are not even engaged.
And she's still legally married to Kris Humphries.
Also, Kardashian has said she wants her next nuptials to be a low-key affair.
Basically, there is not one ounce of truth to this story.
A Kardashian insider tells Gossip Cop it's 100% FALSE that she and West are currently planning a wedding.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy murdered his opportunity to be a judge on "Dancing With the Stars" last season. Or so the fans thought after watching his lack-luster performance. Well, the actual show along with the ABC's President of Entertainment, Paul Lee obviously weren't as harsh on their commentary of the professional dancer and might invite him back into the ballroom. According to E! Online on Friday, the rumors are that the dancer could touch the paddles once again.
So far the decisions of the network only have offered a premiere date and a teaser on what will be part of the show in the future. With the date coinciding towards the end of The Bachelor, everyone is assuming that Juan Pablo will be in the mix as well.
When Maksim Chmerkovskiy was judging on the show, the biggest issue was the lack of opinion and his sympathy towards the professional dancers. However, that was just one episode. If the star could be a little more focused on the celebrities and a little more critical, he might be a good judge after all.
How can Maksim achieve a little more finesse behind the judging table before "Dancing With the Stars" premieres on Monday, March 17 on ABC? Perhaps he should follow Len Goodman around for a while and develop a critical judgment towards the dancers. While nobody wants him to be as harsh as the elderly judge, they just want him to point out errors and critique the contestants without all the sympathy.

Sometimes I think a person from the 19th century would go mad after living in our world for about 15 minutes.
I live in the 21st century and it almost makes me go berserk sometimes. What would do them in, as The Grinch might say, is: "All the noise, noise, noise, noise!"
Some people take comfort in background noise — leaving the TV or radio playing in an otherwise empty house. On the other hand, the Environmental Protection Agency identifies sound pollution as one of the most subtle risks to human health. We can't see, taste or touch sound, but it can have a quiet negative impact on our hearing, sleep, blood pressure, productivity and mood.
Most workplaces are all-you-can-eat buffets of noise. Even working at home as I do, when everyone but me and the cat have gone off to school and work, I am amazed at the inventory of sound in the air.
The kitchen radio is on so I can catch bits and pieces of the news while I work. The old Seth Thomas mantel clock is ticking loudly away on my desk. I hear the hum of the cooling fan in my laptop and the click of the keyboard.
The dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer all slosh and spin about their business. The coffeemaker wheezes to the finish line. In the basement, the water heater kicks on and the well pump responds in kind, replenishing the water tank. The dehumidifier is running down there, too, still drawing out remnants of the damp spring and summer.
The refrigerator clatters on and off. A robo-politician leaves a voicemail. My cell phone chirps to tell me it wants charged. In my son's room, the fish tank hums and burbles. My daughter's cat crashes into the screen door, trying unsuccessfully for the 1,000th time to pounce on the bird or beetle or rabbit or chipmunk passing by the porch.
When the kids are here, an entirely separate layer of electronic noise is added to the soundscape — the Wii, the computer, the Game Boy, the iPod, the CD and DVD players — punctuated by the occasional quarrel over who borrowed whose game and didn't put it back. That noise a dad gets pretty good at ignoring.
I am famous at our house for trying to silence all appliances that can be muted. I don't need the microwave to beep shrilly at me when the leftover chicken and noodles are heated for my lunch. My stomach will remind me of that, thank you very much. I don't need chimes on the washer and dryer to tell me they are done. I get the hint when they shut off. The annoying artificial shutter sound on the digital camera? Who needs that? Why not give the keys on my laptop an old-time typewriter sound? Complete with a bell that dings when I reach the end of the line?
Every time I send something to our printer, it plays a little two-note song as it spits out the paper. It sounds like it's singing: "Ta-da!" It reminds me of a toddler emerging from the bathroom after using the toilet for the first time. "Ta-da! Look what I did!"
With the windows open on a pleasant July morning, I hear lawnmowers, cars and the occasional semi going by like a horizontal rocket ship. A mile away, a freight train lumbers down the railroad tracks. An airplane flies overhead. And don't even get me started on motorcycles with loud pipes and even louder radios. In the intervals in the traffic, I hear birds singing, insects buzzing, and the wind rustling the tree leaves.
When our house was built in 1832, none of these man-made sounds would have existed — except for the kid-made sounds of squabbling siblings. That goes back to Cain and Abel.
In the early 19th century, the only internal combustion engines on the road were hay-burners — horses and oxen and mules. Our house has heard clop of horses, the rattle of wooden wagons, the "awooga" of a Model T horn, and, of course, the roar of every gas and diesel engine that followed.
I often wonder if in my lifetime transportation technology will return to the day when engines were as silent as the movement of a horse's muscles. I have already been startled by the approach of hybrid electric cars, which can creep up on you from behind as stealthily as a cat.
A 19th-century time traveler could come to terms with wireless technology, with Lady Gaga, with freeways and blow-up swimming pools. But the layers of ambient noise, tangled and overlapping, would seem overwhelming. It is to me, sometimes.
Yet, many background sounds I find tremendously reassuring. The genuine, mechanical, spring-powered, non-electricity-dependent, old wind-up clocks ticking around the house. The spin of a bicycle sprocket. The sound of my neighbor's John Deere chugging up the hill, pulling gravity wagons heaped with grain, on the way to the elevator in town.
What a gift to hear all these things. Even the things some of us call noise might seem like music to others.
As they say, beauty is in the ear of the beholder.

Is a Post-Grad Research Degree Right for You?
Before you commit to a post-graduate program you will want to do some research to make sure this is the right choice to serve your life goals. There are three obvious places to start your search: the Internet, current PhD students and staff, and the top journals.
Internet resources
Below are few links that might help both in your evaluation of whether a post-graduate degree is right for you and how best to go about getting the degree of your dreams. A number of these are focused on the North America schools, since that is the largest market, but there are still significant insights here about what is required and why one might get a degree. Views on these websites represent the views of the site owner and not necessarily those of the University of Sydney.
Some blogs about getting a PhD in Business. Typically these give some useful insights into what is involved and what it is like to be a graduate research student. Most are based on the U.S. experience, which differs somewhat from the Australian model (i.e. Australian model is typically shorter with less coursework) but they should still be helpful in assessing whether a PhD is right for you.

- http://www.cs.unc.edu/~azuma/hitch4.html
- http://www.cs.indiana.edu/how.2b/how.2b.html
Other sites you might find useful in the process
- The Graduate School Lots of information about the entire process from getting into programs to getting ones career started.
- DocSIG A student run association of marketing doctoral students run through the American Marketing Association.
Talk to current students and staff
Talking to people who are already in or have completed a post-graduate program, this may seem like an obvious way to get first hand information but surprisingly few people do it. Reach out to your network and talk to as many people as you can find who have completed or are completing the type of degree you want.
Read through articles in the top journals
If you are interested in learning more about whether a post-graduate research degree in Marketing is right for you, you should explore some of the articles in the leading journals in the field. The journals listed below are some of the best in the field and represent the aspirational outlets of most academic marketing researchers. Reading these will give you an idea of what academic marketing research is at its best.
- Journal of Consumer Research
- Journal of Marketing
- Journal of Marketing Research
- Marketing Science
- Journal of Retailing
- Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science
- Journal of Consumer Psychology
Attend an academic marketing conference
Another good way to learn whether an academic career is for you, is to attend an academic conference. These are gatherings of researchers from all over the world where they present the results of their original research. Numerous academic conferences are held throughout the year in various locations some of the biggest are listed below. If you are nearby, it is worth attending to better assess whether an academic career is right for you. ANZMAC hosts the largest marketing conference, held annually in either Australia or New Zealand. ACR hosts conferences in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America.
Some of the more famous academic marketing conferences or their organising bodies:
- The Australian & New Zealand Marketing Academy (ANZMAC)
- Association of Consumer Research (ACR)
- The American Marketing Association (AMA)
- The Academy of Marketing Science (AMS)
- INFORMS Marketing Science Conference (Marketing Science)

No. 9 UMass Throttles No. 17 Brown, 12-5
March 19, 2005
AMHERST, Mass. -- With the New England Patriots Super Bowl Champion coach Bill Belichick in attendance at the biggest New England men's lacrosse rivalry, No. 9 Massachusetts combined a balanced offensive attack and a spirited defensive effort to throttle No. 17 Brown, 12-5, Saturday afternoon on Garber Field.
Senior Jeff Zywicki (Napean, Ontario) paced the Minutemen attack with three goals and an assist, while sophomore Brett Garber (Avon, Conn.) found the back of the cage twice and notched an assist. Eight Minutemen scored on the afternoon, as UMass was a perfect 3-for-3 on extra-man opportunities.
The difference in the game however, was junior Jack Reid (Glastonbury, Conn.), who was remarkable on defense, as he stymied preseason All-American Chazz Woodson to zero points and five turnovers.
UMass opened up a 2-0 lead in the first period as sophomores Brian Jacovina (Hicksville, N.Y.) and Andrew Recchione (Mahwah, N.J.) each tallied goals. Brown responded with a goal by David Madeira to make the score 2-1 at the end of the first stanza.
Over the next 32:54 of the game, the Minutemen defense would hold the Bears scoreless, while hitting the twine on nine occasions. Two man-up goals in the second period by Zywicki and senior Chris Doyle (Putnam Valley, N.Y.) sandwiched a goal by junior Jamie Yaman (Cortland, N.Y.) at the 4:21 mark, to put UMass up 5-1 at the half.
The Minutemen continued the offensive onslaught, with six goals in the third period. Zwyicki notched two goals, while senior Gene Tundo (Orchard Park, N.Y), Sean Morris (Marshfield, Mass.), Garber and Yaman all beat Brown goalkeeper Nichola Gentilesco, to break the game open with a 11-1 lead.
The Bears tallied four goals in the final stanza and Garber added another tally to make the final score 12-7. The Minutemen defense of Matt Garcia (Cortlandt Manor, N.Y.), Aaron Paskalis (Gloucester, Mass.), and Reid combined for six caused turnovers, with Reid having three. Reid tallied his first-career point as well, assisting Tundo's goal in the third period.
UMass returns to action on Tuesday, March 22, when the Minutemen travel to Fairfield, Conn., to take on Sacred Heart at 3:00 p.m in another tough New England matchup.

New Fox sports network to debut in August
By RACHEL COHEN
Associated Press
NEW YORK — For anyone who thinks TV is already saturated with sports of every stripe, stay tuned.
Here comes Fox with an in-your-face challenge to ESPN - a 24-hour sports cable network called Fox Sports 1, set to launch Aug. 17.
"ESPN, quite frankly, is a machine," Fox Sports executive vice president Bill Wanger said Tuesday in announcing the venture. "They have very consistent ratings, obviously huge revenue. We're coming in trying to take on the establishment. It's no different than Fox News or Fox Broadcasting back in the '80s. We're going to have to scratch and claw our way all the way to the top."
To do that, Fox executives are confident they have enough live events, with rights to college basketball and football, NASCAR, soccer and UFC fights. In its first year, the new network will broadcast nearly 5,000 hours of live competition and news.
Fox owns rights to many Big 12, Pac-12 and Conference USA basketball and football games. Its soccer deals include UEFA Champions League and the men's and women's World Cups from 2015-22.
Starting in 2014, FS1 will start broadcasting Major League Baseball games, including part of the postseason. It will show some NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races as early as 2015, with other NASCAR events on the air from the startup.
"We believe we've amassed enough live events and can package and put programming around it where we can have scale," Fox Sports co-President Randy Freer said. "We can have significance. We can be a major player in the market."
However, unlike ESPN's lineup, there's no NBA, no SEC football, no ACC basketball and, the biggest attraction of all, no NFL games. On that last point, Wanger was quick to add: "Yet."
Still to be determined is whether the NFL sells some Thursday night games separately from its NFL Network package. If it does, everyone will try to buy a piece of the action.
Also, will they watch nightly highlights on something other than "SportsCenter"? FS1 will try to find out with its own news show, which will look more like Fox's NFL pregame coverage than ESPN's cornerstone program.
"We like our position," ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz said.
"We have always had vigorous competition so there is really nothing substantially new here. Others are, however, beginning to recognize what we have long known: The power of live sports, especially in light of technological advances, is substantial and brings tremendous value in today's entertainment landscape."
ESPN has eight cable networks that combine for almost 30,000 hours of live coverage.
FS1 will be converted from Speed, a motorsports network, and will be available in 90 million homes, compared with 98 million for ESPN and ESPN2.
And in what might seem odd for a company known for drawing a young audience, Regis Philbin will host a weekday sports talk show for the new network. The 81-year-old Philbin jokingly pretended to be hard of hearing when questions came up about this at the news conference.
Wanger noted that "Live! With Regis and Kelly" did well in younger demographics before Philbin left that show in late 2011.
"Regis has appeal from young to old," Wanger said. "That's why we want him."
Fox plans to use its "double box" format for showing commercials during live action for sports events. Kicking off the coverage on Aug. 17 will be a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race from Michigan and a UFC event in prime time.
Fox executives had talked about potentially launching a sports network for years. As DVRs made live events even more valuable, the timing was right once the company was able to line up enough broadcast rights. And not having a cable sports partner could have hurt the main Fox network in negotiations, Freer said. Fox has used cable channel FX in the past to show some sports.
The network wasn't ready to announce its deal with the new basketball conference formed by breakaway Big East schools, but Fox's executives were happy to talk up the ratings draw the league will provide. Freer called it an "iconic basketball brand" that will immediately be one of the top hoops conferences in the country.
"They're very historic, high-profile teams. The Georgetowns of the world and so on, St. John's, Villanova etc.," Wanger said. "It would be a coup if that deal did happen."
Fox is airing the 2014 Super Bowl in the New York area, a valuable opportunity to promote the new network. Its 22 regional channels will also offer regular chances to direct viewers to FS1.
A report by RBC Capital Markets analyst David Bank says that while FS1 may not match ESPN right away, it can still thrive without doing so. Banks writes that a "modestly successful" venture would more than quadruple Fox's monthly subscriber fees from what Speed received and increase ad revenue from $90 million to $460 million.
"It's going to take us a while, and we're aware of this fact," Fox Sports Chairman David Hill said. "We're not expecting to knock ESPN off in the first week or two. … It's going to be a solid slog."

The Government has drawn-up plans to tackle the woodland fungus, which has already wiped out 90% of ash trees in Denmark.
14:46, UK, Thursday 06 December 2012
The Government has unveiled plans to control ash dieback as the number of sites where the fatal tree disease has been found nears 300.
Environment Secretary Owen Paterson set out actions to reduce the rate of spread of ash dieback and develop disease-resistant trees.
The disease has been identified in 155 sites in the wider countryside, 119 areas where ash trees have recently been planted, and 17 nurseries.
The Chalara fraxinea fungus, which causes leaf loss and crown dieback and can lead to death in ash trees, has wiped out 90% of ash trees in some parts of Denmark.
The discovery earlier this year that it was in the UK - thought to have arrived on imported ash trees and blown on spores from infected sites - prompted fears of similar devastation as that wrought by Dutch elm disease in the 1970s.
The control plan unveiled by the Environment Department on Thursday includes funding research on the production of spores at infected sites and working with other European countries to develop resistant trees.
A task force asked to assess the current tree disease threats to the UK and what can be done about them has made initial recommendations for a risk register for tree health.
It also wants a chief plant health officer to be appointed to manage tree health in the same way the Government's chief vet is in charge of dealing with livestock diseases such as foot and mouth.
Environment Secretary Owen Paterson said: "While the science tells us it won't be possible to eradicate this disease, we mustn't give up on British ash."
But Woodland Trust chief executive Sue Holden said the Government was playing scientific catch-up on the crisis.
"Our natural infrastructure is suffering from chronic under funding and is also at increasing risk from development. Government as a whole simply cannot afford to ignore the benefits our trees and woods deliver."

Facial recognition technology which is gaining ground in forensic applications is now here to identify a VIP, which is you at the hotel or store and your spending habits, explores The New York Times Bits section today.
The NEC Corporation, for instance, is working on 'V.I.P. identification' software, based on face recognition, for hotels and other businesses 'where there is a need to identify the presence of important visitors.'
FaceFirst in Camarillo, Calif. has a goal to soon complement their shoplifter-identification services with parallel programs to help retailers recognize customers for preferential treatment. The gaming industry utilized the company to spot the con artists, counters and the good guys that the casino wants to attract and provide great VIP service.
The FaceFirst marketing section of its website provides the benefits of its technology: 'Instantly, when a person in your FaceFirst database steps into one of your stores, you are sent an email, text or SMS alert that includes their picture and all biographical information of the known individual so you can take immediate and appropriate action.'
Joseph Rosenkrantz, the chief executive of FaceFirst, envisages stores using the software to recognize shoppers and immediately send personalized offers to their phones. But he expects retailers to seek permission from their customers first and states, 'That would require opt-in consent.'
This week technology industry experts and consumer advocates are meeting in Washington D.C. this Thursday to discuss facial recognition. The event is the first of a series on the topic organized by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration. Agency officials expect that participants will eventually hammer out a voluntary industry code of conduct for the technology's use.
The meetings are part of an initiative, introduced in 2012 by the White House, to draft and enact baseline federal consumer privacy legislation. Last year the telecommunications industry leaders met and agreed upon notices that apps could display before they were downloaded, alerting users if an app collected material, like photos or contact lists, from their phones.
Yet Joseph Atick, a pioneer in facial recognition, views the technology as much more powerful than current consumer-tracking tools. Facial recognition may soon let companies link a person's online persona with his or her actual offline self at a specific public location. That could seriously threaten our ability to remain anonymous in public.
'I don't think there has ever been a capability that converged in this way to give people power over you,' Mr. Atick says.
But rather than react to the data-mining technique of the day, some regulators want Congress to pass a law giving consumers basic rights to control how intimate details about them are collected and used, no matter the technology.
Of facial recognition, Jessica Rich, the director of the bureau of consumer protection at the Federal Trade Commission, says: 'This is another reason that we need omnibus privacy legislation.'

Burnout. It happens in careers, with relationships, or for some, just day-to-day living. Burnout results from becoming tired of the same old issues, problems or even the things or activities one used to enjoy. You can be the most loving, responsible and committed parent in the world, but make no mistake. You are not exempt from the occasional "crash and burn" of child-rearing.
Let me get you thinking with a simple question. When it comes to being a parent, what are you tired of? Is it dealing with the same misbehaviors from little Bradley, the obsession teenage Susie has for Facebook, or dealing with fighting over homework each evening?
Maybe it's the lack of quality family time like you had growing up. This list of questions could go on and on, but examples are only to get you thinking.
Today, I suggest you do this. Find a quiet time and place, get your laptop or notepad handy, and make a simple list.
What are you tired of when it comes to fulfilling your role as a parent? My hope is that the list is not too long.
If you find yourself on the third page of issues after working 10 minutes on this little exercise, put your list down and pick up the cell. You may need some family counseling, or at least some direction in parenting 101.
Take that list and rank items in order -- No. 1 is your biggest concern, second, third and so on. Don't list more than your top five or so (as you don't want to begin your quest to avoid parenting burnout by being completely overwhelmed by the list!).
If you are doing this little task alone, next, share it with your spouse (or even your ex if you are divorced). Though I realize it's not always easy, parents, stepparents and sometimes grandparents need to be on the same page when addressing areas of family life that need change.
Now that your teamwork is set, start with No. 1 on your list. That is the target area you are working to change.
For that No. 1 item, don't just aim in hopes of hitting at least somewhere on the target. Go for the bullseye. Nothing will lead you toward burnout more than half-heartily trying to make changes in your family -- only to fall short and be right back to dealing with the same ol' same ol'.
Once the plan to fix No. 1 is off and running well, go for No. 2.

College Hockey:Bracketology: A Final Analysis
The selections for the 2003-2004 NCAA Tournament were announced Sunday, and we almost hit it on the head with our final Bracketology.
Once again USCHO.com's PairWise Rankings correctly picked all 16 teams in the tournament, all 16 seeds correct, and, using Bracketology, we had every matchup correctly picked except for two, with two teams being switched.
Here's what we predicted:
Midwest Regional:
13 Notre Dame vs. 4 Minnesota
12 Michigan State vs. 5 Minnesota-Duluth
West Regional:
16 Holy Cross vs. 1 North Dakota
10 Miami vs. 7 Denver
East Regional:
15 Niagara vs. 3 Maine
11 Wisconsin vs. 6 Ohio State
Northeast Regional:
14 Harvard vs. 2 Boston College
9 New Hampshire vs. 8 Michigan
Bracketing the Frozen Four, if all four number-one seeds advance, then the top overall seed plays No. 4, and No. 2 plays No. 3. Therefore, the winners of the Midwest and West Regionals face each other in one semifinal (Minnesota and North Dakota's brackets), while the winners of the East and Northeast Regionals (Maine and Boston College's brackets) play the other semifinal.
We got everything right except for one thing — Harvard went to the East Regional and Niagara went to the Northeast Regional.
Why did this happen?
Simply put, the committee decided to keep bracket integrity rather than follow the fly rule to save some money.
I was burned by it last year, and I got burned again.
The Committee, over the last two years, has shown a trend — that bracket integrity is the most important thing. Moreso than attendance and moreso than saving money on the fly rule.
Either way, it's a great tournament. Sit back and enjoy.

Once again we arrive at February. A month which has become synonymous with Arsenal's season imploding. After the heavy defeat to Liverpool at the weekend and with a less than pretty fixture list coming up at over the next 3 weeks, could this spell the end of the title race for Wenger and his talented group?
The humbling defeat at the weekend showed some glaring problems with Arsenals defensive line. Laurent Koscielny was reduced to the comic figure that would be more identifiable with his haphazard performances of previous seasons than the sturdy performances we have seen this season, that have led him and his fellow defensive line to keep the most clean sheets this season.
With Manchester United coming up this week Arsenal need to kick on from this loss. Despite the loss dententing but not completely extinguishing their title hopes, the psychological factors of such a poor performance may yet be more telling. Mesut Özil for example cut a dejected figure on the pitch on Saturday, contributing to the loss of two if not three of the Liverpool goals. At £42 million you would expect the player to be chase back if he's offering nothing up front. Wenger has said after the match he expects a good response from his star player when the Gunners hit the turf again on Wednesday.
Wenger quickly came out after the game and has urged the press and fans to not judge his team on their performance on Saturday but on their response to the loss in the forthcoming games. This is a good move but does it detract from the fact that there is a possibility February could derail Arsenals season once again.
With Bayern Munich also looming on the horizon as well as another game in the FA Cup against Liverpool, Arsenal would look some what more like a team to contend with in the title race should they come out on top.

Random drug testing and testing for drug use as a prerequisite for participation in sports or other extracurricular activities does not change the rate of use of illegal drugs, rates of smoking, or rates of consuming alcohol illegally in high school students according to new research conducted by Dr. Daniel Romer of the University of Pennsylvania Annenberg Public Policy Center in Philadelphia that was published in the Jan. 13, 2014, issue of the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs.
Thirty-three percent of the 361 students that Romer interviewed indicated that their school had a drug testing policy but that policy did not make the students any more or less likely to try marijuana, cigarettes, or alcohol.
Students involved in sports and clubs were found to be less likely to use marijuana and other illegal drugs that are commonly tested for in high schools.
Romer notes that 66 percent of high school students try alcohol before they are of legal age. Romer faults sports broadcasting as a source that makes drinking alcohol appealing to young people.
Romer claims that the rates of the use of marijuana and cigarettes were 20 and 15 percent lower in schools where students knew the rules, knew that the rules were enforced equally among all students, and where the relationship between students and teachers was one of mutual respect.

According to the Western Major Baseball League website, the Lethbridge Bulls defeated the Okotoks Dawgs 2-1 on Friday to take a 2-0 series lead in the Western Division semi-finals of the 2014 Western Major Baseball League playoffs. However, the Bulls needed the ninth inning to generate their runs in order to be victorious.
With a runner on first and two out in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bulls generated three straight singles off the bats of left fielder Bretton Gouthro of Calgary, shortstop Evan Comeau of Waverley, Nova Scotia and center fielder Cody Stewart of Temecula, California. For Stewart, it was his first hit of the game after going zero for four in his first four plate appearances. With that, a slim one run Dawgs lead was all of a sudden gone.
The Dawgs lost despite outstanding pitching performances from starting pitcher Chris Sievers of Greeley, Colorado and relief pitcher Anthony Willeford of White Hall, Illinois. Sievers threw five innings, had six strikeouts, three walks, two hits in five and two thirds scoreless innings. While Willeford threw an inning and two thirds, and despite giving up three hits and a walk, prevented the Bulls from scoring.
On the Bulls side, starting pitcher Scott Cone of Glenwood, Australia was dominant as he threw eight innings, four strikeouts and gave up zero earned runs (Dawgs run in the contest was unearned). Interestingly though it was Dylan Hastings of Vista, California, who threw the ninth inning that got the victory.
Dawgs' closer Travis McDonald of Melbourne, Australia struggled from Spitz Stadium (formerly known as Henderson Stadium), as he had a blown save and was unable to get the final out in the ninth inning. The Bulls can now sweep the series with a victory on Sunday night from Seaman Stadium in Okotoks.

Report: Not All UVM Employees Earn Livable Wages
By Channel 3 News
BURLINGTON, VT -- University of Vermont students and staff are celebrating the findings of a group looking at whether all employees of UVM earn a livable wage.
The task force was created by the school last year. One of the main findings, there are about 250 UVM employees who earn less than a livable wage, or about 12 dollars an hour.
"Today marks the completion of the basic needs and equitable compensation task force which was created by president Fogel last year to address the issue of livable wages. So, the ball is in their court and we're asking them to for a speedy and transparent implementation," said Sam Maron of the Student Labor Action Project.
The group will make recommendations to the UVM administration on how the University should proceed in making sure all employees get paid a fair wage.

College Hockey:RIT Motors Past Lebanon Valley
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — In the opening game of their NCAA quarterfinal series, the RIT Tigers (25-0-1) defeated the Lebanon Valley Flying Dutchmen (18-8-2) by a score of 8-1.
After RIT established a 4-0 lead early in the second period, Lebanon Valley scored a shorthanded goal to get on the board, presaging an even and scoreless remainder of the frame.
But an RIT goal just 41 seconds into the third period killed the Dutchmen's momentum.
"When they put in their fifth goal, that took a lot of wind out of us," said Lebanon Valley defenseman Michael Sarro.
Nevertheless, the game was closer than the score might indicate, as Lebanon Valley's penalty kill kept the high-flying RIT power play off the board.
"Penalty killing is one of our strengths — we work real hard on it," said Sarro.
Although the underdog, Lebanon Valley came out playing very unlike it. The Dutchmen put pressure on the RIT net and outshot the Tigers early. Neither team could establish much of a territorial advantage through the first half of the period.
The only scoring during the opening stanza of the game was by RIT. Tiger defenseman Jerry Galway passed from the RIT blue line to Mike Tarantino breaking into the Dutchmen zone. Tarantino slid the puck through Lebanon Valley netminder Kevin Block's five-hole for the goal at 6:59.
RIT turned the gas up a notch midway through the period and started to gain an edge territorially. The pressure paid off for the Tigers. While killing a penalty, Tiger Brian Armes broke into the Dutchmen zone alone on another RIT breakaway. Armes flipped a backhander over Block's shoulder for the goal at 13:34.
"When you get into these short series, getting momentum is so important," said RIT coach Wayne Wilson.
Lebanon Valley continued to plug away, and put several more first-rate shots towards the RIT net. But it was the Tigers that got the next goal. Peter Bournazakis roofed a backhander high at 16:13 for this 100th career goal, and into a tie for second place on the RIT all-time scoring list with 225 points.
When asked about it after the game, Bournazakis said, "I didn't even know about the scoring position until one of my teammates told me."
Lebanon Valley did everything right in the first period, except for scoring. They were able to put pressure on the RIT zone, keep RIT away from many rebounds deep in their own zone, and won faceoffs. Block faced a barrage of 23 RIT shots in the period.
"I have to take the real blame for that. I wasn't covering my rebounds real well and gave them too many chances," said Block. RIT skated into the locker room with a 3-0 lead at the first intermission.
RIT built its lead to 4-0 early in the second period. On a delayed penalty, Josh Faulkner weaved around a Dutchmen defender, deked Block, and slid the puck into the far side of the net at 5:22.
Lebanon Valley erased the Tiger shorthanded goal earlier by getting one of its own. Sarro took advantage of a lazy RIT defense to skate in from the blue line, and got around the Tigers to put a clean wrister past netminder Tyler Euverman for the goal at 8:52.
"We gamble on the penalty kill a lot, we take chances. They got a shorthander, and this one evened it out," said MacCormack.
This goal gave the Dutchmen confidence and play evened out for the remainder of the period. The play got more physical late in the period. RIT's Matt Moore caught Dutchmen star Brian Yingling with his head down in the neutral zone, and sent him bottom-over-tea-kettle tumbling to the ice. The RIT bench, crowd, and even the press box erupted.
"Up to that point, I didn't think we played a real physical game. I was looking for some more physicalness from the team, and Moore delivered," said Wilson.
Lebanon Valley came out with two point blank chances in the opening 10 seconds of the third period, but Euverman came up with two big saves to keep the puck out of the Tiger net.
RIT weathered the early storm and scored on its first rush of the period down into the Dutchmen zone as Josh Faulkner poked in a loose rebound 41 seconds into the period. Jonathan Day poked in another rebound at 7:25, and Sam Hill scored on another delayed penalty at 8:10, and all of a sudden RIT was enjoying a commanding 7-1 lead on the scoreboard.
Completing the bookends, Tarantino scored the final goal of the game with just three seconds remaining to cap off the 8-1 score.
"This is the best RIT team that I have ever seen, very well balanced. These games put our program on the map," said MacCormack.

The solar receiver was as bright as the heart of the sun, glowing with a retina-melting white. I had to force myself to look away.

Watch Dogs was one of the most anticipated games of 2013 and it is now one of the most anticipated games of 2014. Luckily for gamers, there is almost no doubt that Watch Dogs will actually be released this year, since it has an official launch date for later this spring. A new report that surfaced Monday morning indicates that video game fans might have benefitted from the delay with new content inserted into Watch Dogs during the delay.
The report cites Ubisoft's Jonathan Morin who confirms Watch Dogs' story is about 35-40 hours long depending on how it is played. In order to complete all the activities made available in the open world game, it will take the average player about 100 hours. Considering Watch Dogs' release date was delayed in order to polish up the open world experience it appears the company made the right call. Stories like Watch Dogs are known to complete in 15-20 hours on average, so Ubisoft took the time to make sure there is plenty of action in and around the virtual version of Chicago.
As is the case with a growing number of video games these days, Watch Dogs is not a game for the younger among us. At least some of the new Watch Dogs content appears to be of a graphic enough nature that the rating for the game went from a MA15+ to a R18+ by the Australian Classification Board. Polygon reports the Watch Dogs rating changed because at least some of the content that was added included implied sexual violence.
While implied sexual violence in a video game doesn't exactly sound all that great, it doesn't appear Watch Dogs has made this violence gratuitous. Rumors are circulating that some of the added content is that of a mission revolving around a human trafficking ring. If true, Watch Dogs might be offering more than the average video gamer is used to as far as realism goes.
Watch Dogs, following the story of Aidan Pierce was first set to launch last October but that date was moved back just weeks before it was set to debut. Watch Dogs isn't you average everyday brawler and the game-play will likely even set it aside from titles like inFamous: Second Son in that regard.
Watchdogs might be similar to that story in that you are taking on a shady government but in this title you aren't using super powers. Instead Watchdogs has you doing your good deeds for the people using hacking and surveillance tactics.
Watchdogs is hitting store shelves for the next-gen consoles, the Xbox 360, the PlayStation 3 and the PC on May 27. A Watch Dogs version for the Wii U is due out sometime later.
