William is a good-looking young actor. He may be vain and cocky, but his doubt manifests itself in endearing self-criticism. Sarah is a beautiful singer-songwriter.

A few short weeks into their relationship, swept up in the giddy currents of their youthful love, they almost marry. But when Sarah changes her mind, William's world crumbles. They fight, they break up, he is devastated. After numerous desperate bids to win her back, William flees to his Texas homeland in search of answers about relationships and his own past.

Peg People tutorial
Posted by Cindy on Thursday, May 31st, 2012
We have a new how to video! Peg People. This project is a little reminiscent of the days of tole painting. Liz Evans of Simple Simon (and our RB Project Design team) makes you want to pick up your brushes again to make these adorable handmade toys. No sewing required. Fabric is added to the doll with Mod Podge making it a fun and easy project.

"Experience China," an art exhibit by China's "greatest contemporary artists," is the first in a series of events resulting from a Memorandum of Understanding entered into last April by Gov. Jerry Brown and Party Secretary Luo. California and Jiangsu Province became Sister States in July, 2011.
The paintings that will be displayed at the Pasadena Convention center are the gold prize winners of an annual art contest and display in Jinling, which began in 2005 as the Jinling Art Exhibition of One Hundred Chinese Paintings. They capture current social development, urban and rural landscape, natural scenery and public life. Jiangsu Province has sponsored and displayed China's top paintings in 2011 at the Louvre, in Paris, and in 2012 at Westminster Cathedral in London.
Opening ceremonies are on Saturday, Sept. 14, 2013 form 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. and require reservations. RSVP to Mei Mei Huff, (909) 815-7272 or email@example.com. The exhibition continues Sept. 15 and 16, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The Pasadena Convention Center is located at 300 E. Green St., Pasadena, Calif.

Here's a preview of the 75th Iron Bowl between #2 Auburn (11-0, SEC 7-0) and #11 Alabama (9-2, 5-2 SEC) at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Saturday, November 27, 2010.
Kickoff is scheduled for 1:30pm CT, and will be televised by CBS.
Below, I give my analysis of each phase of the game, key match-ups, what to expect and a score prediction.
Phase 1: Alabama Offense vs. Auburn Defense
Key Match-ups:
Alabama C William Vlachos & OGs vs. Auburn DT Nick Fairley
Alabama QB Greg McElroy vs. Auburn LB Josh Bynes
Alabama WR Julio Jones vs. Auburn CB Neiko Thorpe
The Crimson Tide offense has been criticized at times this year and rightfully so. I've done so and still have my reservations that we will see a performance that matches the talent on this offense. Alabama's offensive line hasn't been the dominant force of the last two years. That and the inability to play to the team's strengths have hurt Alabama in big games.
I expect Alabama to run the ball early and often and play ball-control offense to limit possessions for Cam Newton and the offense.
Auburn's two DL suspensions for the first half shouldn't be a huge factor because there won't be enough time to wear down a thinner line rotation. C William Vlachos has to be better against NT Nick Fairley than he was against NT Drake Nevis of LSU. A healthy or available Barrett Jones would be big at LG. Chance Warmack has to be sound at RG as well. The assignments are the biggest thing for Alabama's offensive line. If they clean that up and QB Greg McElroy gets rid of the football, then the Tide can make some plays.
Alabama has to throw deep and throw it up to Julio Jones to let him make plays on a susceptible Auburn secondary. I expect RB Trent Richardson to be healthy, physical and effective.
OC Jim McElwain, QB Greg McElroy and C William Vlachos may be the most critical figures for Alabama to win this game. McElroy has to be aware of where Josh Bynes is at all times because he is very good in pass coverage and has excellent ball skills to cover ground and intercept passes underneath receivers.
Phase 2: Auburn Offense vs. Alabama Defense
Key Match-ups:
Auburn QB Cam Newton vs. Alabama S Mark Barron
Auburn C Ryan Pugh vs. Alabama DT Josh Chapman & Reserve DTs
Auburn LT Lee Ziemba vs. Alabama DE Marcell Dareus
Hit Cam. That's not a camera on a hitter in baseball, it's the necessary plan to slow down QB Cam Newton and try to punish him. Hit Cam.
CBS' Gary Danielson pointed this out a few weeks ago. When Newton hesitates at the line of scrimmage and almost comes to a stop, why don't teams attach him and hit him? It's a great point. Yes, Auburn offensive line has something to do with that in holding blocks long enough for Cam to get loose. But, I still think teams are passive defending him because they don't want to get juked by a quarterback. I think Alabama will be very physical and aggressive in playing their gap control.
If Auburn can run the ball with their running backs, that will make things really tough for Alabama.
The Tide secondary continues to improve. If they can eliminate the big plays in the passing game, Alabama will have a shot at staying out of a track meet with Auburn. Alabama may play simple coverages on the perimeter to allow SS Mark Barron to be the every down spy on Cam Newton. Barron won't always look like the spy but, similar to Rashad Johnson a few years ago, he will come out of nowhere to fill that role late pre-snap.
Auburn isn't quite as effective when it doesn't play with a fast pace. Down, distance, field position and score often determines that. Auburn will make some plays but I don't expect them to just go up and down the field on the Tide defense in Tuscaloosa.
Phase 3: Special Teams
Both teams have had inconsistent and at times shaky punting. Auburn doesn't have full use of its extensive offensive playbook when it's pinned deep in its own territory. That doesn't happen to them much. Field position can really help Alabama in this game. Both teams have good return games and solid place-kicking.
Overall Analysis
I 100% admit I have see-sawed in viewing this game. All season I felt that when this week arrived Alabama would beat Auburn. Since Alabama's LSU loss, I felt that Alabama wouldn't be able to stop Cam Newton or keep-up with the Tigers offensively. Now this week, after taking a step back, I'm back to my gut feeling, and that's an Alabama win. That's not an alleged homer-pick, that's an unbiased feeling of who will win.
There are numerous factors at play here. The biggest factor is that I believe Alabama will play with the energy, intensity, focus and motivation that, at times, hasn't been at peak levels this season. If Alabama is clicking on all cylinders and doesn't break down in those few key plays that turn a ballgame around, it will win.
Alabama is more talented than Auburn, top-to-bottom. Yes, the best player in college football will be in white, but with the intimidating atmosphere inside Bryant-Denny Stadium, I don't think you'll see the same Auburn that has fed off of its electric crowd all season. Alabama wins.
Score Prediction
Alabama 27 Auburn 24

Neil Young has expanded his acoustic solo run in Los Angeles to three shows.
According to an update posted Feb. 24 at Young's official Facebook page, the legendary Canuck singer-songwriter has announced a third performance by popular demand, scheduled for April 1 at L.A.'s Dolby Theatre in addition to the previously scheduled shows on March 29 and March 30.
The "Heart of Gold" hitmaker, who continues to veer unpredictably between solo and Crazy Horse gigs, began the year with a critically hailed four-night acoustic stand at New York's legendary Carnegie Hall, followed by four controversial solo benefit shows across Canada, raising money for Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation Legal Defence (AFCN) Fund.
The two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee has also gradually been adding new Crazy Horse 2014 summer dates to several previously announced make up dates in Germany, England, Ireland and Belgium, which had been axed by Young and company last summer when their 2013 Euro Alchemy Tour leg was cut short due to a hand injury suffered by guitarist Frank "Poncho" Sampedro.
See Neil Young.com for more details.
In the wake of his successful 2012 memoir "Waging Heavy Peace," Young has also begun work on a second memoir related to his lifetime love of cars, which will be published by Penguin subsidiary Blue Rider Press this fall.
Did you know? Neil Young's latest release is "Live at the Cellar Door," an new archive offering recorded live at a six-night stand in late 1970 at a Washington, D.C. club.

Andersen's Fairy Tales
by Andersen, Hans Christian
Andersen's Fairy Tales Religion Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Tale Title.Paragraph)
Quote #7
From prison directly to an almost heavenly freedom, to love and friendship; that also Jurgen was to try. No man would offer another man a glass to drain that contained nothing but bitterness. How should God then be able to do it, He who is all goodness? (A Story from the Dunes.137)
And here's that old religious conundrum: If God is so good, why do bad things happen in the world? It's comforting to know that even a pious, smarty pants like Andersen struggled to answer this question for himself.
Quote #8
"Amber is the most beautiful incense; from it comes the smell of God's great church: Nature." (The Sunshine's Story.18)
Nature = God's great church. It's a cool metaphor, if you think about it. So, like, could hiking be a form of prayer? Is littering an actual sin?
Quote #9
His bookshelf was filled with books, and one of them, which he called the book of books, he read often. It was the Bible, and in that was the whole history of the world and humanity: the creation, the flood, and the King of Kings. "Everything that has happened or will happen is written about in that book," claimed Godfather. "So much in one book, that is worth thinking about!" (What the Whole Family Said.9-10)
The Bible is the number one best seller of all time for a reason. But we here at Shmoop think there are other books out there that are worth reading as well. Like Andersen's, for example.

I've been finalizing my Infected card game, but also ordered some research material for future projects (and for bit of "just for fun" as well). I happened to spot Survivorman show and learnt there were several seasons of their show "available". I decided to purchase, and of course since it's year 2012 you'd think everything would be easy: just push couple of buttons and I could start watching the show, right?
Well, not exactly.
I learnt that Netflix had some survivorman episodes quite likely available. Netflix just arrived to Finland so I tried to signup. I got error "try again later". I tried like 47 times, but no can do. I don't know why, but I just could not sign up. Maybe I did something wrong, but well. That attempt failed.
But fear not, I could go to amazon.com and order it, right?
In Amazon.com, there was only Region 1 dvds, not 2. I looked into figuring out if my PS3 could play Region 1 dvds and learnt that quite likely not. Well that sucks a bit then.
Amazon.ca said "not available".
Amazon.co.uk said "Region 1 import", so no can do.
I then tried purchasing direct streaming through Amazon.com, just to learn that it was available only in "US store". Of course. Sorry about trying.
Then I went to Discovery channel official store, where it was "no longer available".
Then tried one online streaming system which told me to "view from Canada".
Sucks to be me, I live in Finland.
Play.com could have it? It always has stuff I can buy.
Not today, no.
At this point I went to watch that Monty Python clip. You should watch too:
I then started thinking, that all this region coding requires plenty of work. Region codes didn't just appear: these need to be programmed in the system. My playstation by default didn't have region codes, no… those needed to be created.
So what essentially happened here is that:
Publishers put massive amount of work to ensure that I cannot buy the product.
It's like…
I'm almost speechless.
I have money here that I want to hand over to you. You've spent your money to prevent me from buying.
Can somebody tell me why, because I'd really like to know.
(Oh, and in case you happen to know where or how I could watch – yes, I'm willing to pay – Survivorman full episodes, then please let me know. And no, I'm not buying into that "buy region free dvd player" madness just to watch one show, I have no room for that anyway.)

"Teen Mom" star Courtland Rogers hasn't been a part of the show since they were not filming when he and Jenelle were married. The show started up just after Jenelle decided to file for divorce. Courtland and Jenelle have two sides of the story and Jenelle is often using Twitter to share her feelings about her estranged husband. And with everyone watching "Teen Mom 2," Courtland seems upset about how she is slamming his name. According to a new Wetpaint Entertainment report published on March 13, "Teen Mom" star Courtland Rogers is upset with the things that Jenelle is saying on the show about him.
On Twitter, she wrote, "I hope u get bad bags the next time u shoot up," about Courtland. "Are u serious and how could u say that about me?" Courtland replied. "What in the actual f—k are you heartless?" However, Jenelle thought that her statements were justified given how badly he had treated her. "None of u understand what I've been through with him... It was nothing like I ever experienced in my life. Such a horrible person."
However, people think that she is being a tad bit harsh, hoping that he will overdose next time he does drugs. And Courtland thinks it is unfair that she has the MTV platform to share her thoughts about him. "It's just so wrong that I'm not on there defending myself to the world," wrote Courtland. "Y'all will NEVER know the truth and that sucks man #F—kTeeNmOm2."
What do you think of their troubled relationship?

Reader Question:
I can't cook worth a bit and I'm tired of going out all the time, can you please recommend a cookbook using a crock pot?? Thanks!!
- Tara
Marilyn's Answer:
Hi Tara,
Thank you for your question! A few years ago cooking teacher and author Diane Phillips wrote a slow cooker cookbook with other 400 recipes that I would recommend – "Slow Cooker: The Best Cookbook Ever". There are a lot of other options for time saving meals as well! Many of our cooking classes can help you with time management cooking. You can view our Chapel Hill and Mt Pleasant class schedules online. If you roast a chicken or buy a roasted chicken, you can organize and create multiple meals. Our Chapel Hill store has a program called Dinner For You, where you can pre-order a delicious dinner 5 nights a week and pick it up. It's a very reasonable way to eat nutritious meals five days a week without any preparation or planning on your part. There are also many ways to "cook your dinner" from a salad bar, besides just making a salad! For example, if you have on hand flour tortillas you can select fillings for quesadillas from a salad bar and make a very quick and easy dinner! I hope these tips help.
Thank you,

For some reason this Saturday I had an impulsive itch to take Hunter to Chuck E Cheese. It was awesome to see Hunter have a blast.
Had to have a horse race.
We played air hockey which Hunter was just blown away by the floating puck. Hunter loved whacking moles even if he would get himself all tangled up. ten bucks worth of coins lasted us over two hours. I will have to keep this in mind next time we have a rainy Saturday.
After Chuck E Cheese and a lil "ow" chasing we took Hunter to his first movie How to Train a Dragon. Watching Hunter was a blast. Everything was a wow! or a look mommie look daddie. I wish I could have videoed him. When the movie was done Hunter was mesmerized he wanted to stay and watch all of the credits. We are definitely buying that movie on DVD when it comes out.

When SharePoint first came out, ECM (enterprise content management) was a big driver for adoption. Users were now able to organize emails, PDFs, Word files and all manner of content. SharePoint 2010 introduced metadata, allowing users to tag content so it could be found again from massively growing content lists and libraries.
Now, organizations want to understand WHY they save documents, and HOW LONG should they be kept. Enter the records managers. I had an interesting interview with ARRAY's Mike Miller on the topic, and today I got a chance to speak with Colligo Networks' Barry Jinks on the subject. The company is introducing Colligo Briefcase, for browsing, viewing and storing SharePoint content on tablets (iPads for now, Windows-based tablets down the road, Jinks said), and Colligo Email Manager and Contributor Pro software. You can read about those here.
Jinks was talking about the expanding definition of records, and how everyone in a organization is creating records all the time. About how, in fact, EVERYTHING -- a blog post, a Wiki entry, an email attachment, even a TWEET -- is a record. So in-place records management becomes critical, and users must be empowered and trained to use SharePoint to choose content types, and create metadata tags at the time the document is created. SharePoint, he said, offers centrally managed compliance, but the hard part is getting users to do it. "The value of applying metadata is seen in search," he said, "so they get why they're doing it." And the organization gets the value of retention policies that work.

THIS RESTAURANT HAS CHANGED LOCATIONS Buzina Pop Restaurant Review: Buzina Pop is inspired by a 1960s Brazilian TV icon, "Chacrinha," an illustrious entertainer and his celebrated buzina (meaning "horn"). Reminiscing on Chacrinha's influence on Pop culture, the décor lends itself to a rustic-contemporary Brazilian style. The floor has motifs of a sidewalk in Leblon, Rio, and tasteful Latino design elements. Appetizers (Para Comezar) include thinly sliced, lemony hearts of palm that sit under fat, juicy scallops. For entrées (Para Continuar), the crispy cod with grainy black-eyed peas and dende-scented farofa proposes complex consistencies.

Step 4: Fully
fund your pretax retirement savings. Stash
15 percent of your gross household income into a retirement plan or Roth IRA if
you're eligible. If you can't afford the full 15 percent, start slowly and add
1 percent to 2 percent at a time, as you are able.
A reminder: If
you're already saving the maximum amount in your retirement fund, but still have
non-mortgage debt (Step 2) or haven't created your emergency fund (Step 3), you're
not ready for Step 4.
Financial experts emphasize that you
must take care of your current financial situation before you can plan for the
future. Cut back or eliminate your retirement contributions until you have completed
Steps 1 through 3.
And why focus on retirement before college
savings? "Millions of baby boomers are learning the hard way that they can't
afford to retire because they didn't save enough soon enough," says A. Todd
Black, a fee-only financial planner in Cumming, Ga. "If you put off saving
for retirement until education expenses are paid for, it could be too late for
you to save and still have the retirement options you were hoping for."
says Black, remember that your kids can take out loans for college. You can't
take out loans for retirement.
Step 5: Create a college fund for your kids.
Once you've established an ongoing contribution to your retirement fund, this
is the time to set up a college fund for your children -- if that's important
to you.
"I know some fabulously successful people
whose parents didn't pay for their education," says Black. "I also know
some less successful ones whose parents did, so it's not the end of the world
if you can't afford to save for college."
Step 6: Pay off your mortgage
early. It's finally time to burn that mortgage note! Many
financial experts suggest that their clients pay off their houses before they
retire, if possible.
Some ideas: Refinance from a 30-year
to a 15-year mortgage, arrange for additional principal to be automatically withdrawn
each month from your bank account or use windfalls such as bonuses or inheritances
to pay off large chunks of your mortgage.
7: Build wealth and enjoy your financial independence. Once
you're debt-free and solidly on the road to retirement, it's time to have some
fun. Buy that sports car you've always wanted, invest money so you can leave a
legacy for your grandchildren or use your financial freedom to support causes
that interest you.
It's all a matter of priorities.

I'm considering two different MSI-G series laptops. Some are 15.6" and some are 17.8". Some of them have the same CPU, but a big difference in price. I'm wondering whether they reduced the performance from of the CPU and GPU on the 15.6" ones.
Do they have similar performance on games etc, or might size cause significant difference?

College Hockey:Friel's Second Is OT Winner For Plattsburgh
Cardinals Take SUNYAC Title, Look Ahead To NCAAs
PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. — The Plattsburgh State Cardinals are the 2003-04 SUNYAC champions, thanks to their second straight overtime victory.
Dave Friel scored his second goal of the night 37 seconds into the extra period to defeat Oswego, 3-2, and give Plattsburgh a two games to none series win.
With the teams tied up after 40 minutes, the third period went by without a goal as Plattsburgh clamped down, allowing only six shots from Oswego. That meant that once again, the two teams headed for overtime.
In OT, after Oswego missed a chance on a rush off a faceoff, Plattsburgh — skating four-on-four — took the puck the other way. Tyson Gajda left some daylight along the post, and Friel backhanded it on net. Though Gajda got a piece of his pad on it, the puck managed to trickle in.
The game started out as all Oswego-Plattsburgh games have this year: with Oswego scoring first. Tony DeFour converted at 7:13 of the opening period.
Plattsburgh tied it up on the power play at 18:13 when Chad Kemp scored.
The scoring continued to follow the pattern from the night before. The Cardinals took a 2-1 lead at 15:28 of the second period on another power-play goal. This time, Dave Friel notched it.
And like the night before, the Lakers outshot Plattsburgh in the middle period, this time 20-10. It paid off as Oswego tied it up before the period ended.
The Lakers got a late power play, and though they didn't technically convert, they did take advantage, as Mike Lukajic scored just after the power play ended with the Lakers still maintaining control of the puck.
The tying goal came with just seven seconds left in the second period. Ryan Woodward picked up his second assist for the night.
For the game, Oswego outshot Plattsburgh 35-30. Once again, Craig Neilson got the win with 33 saves, while Gajda took the loss with 27 stops.
Plattsburgh has now won 17 SUNYAC championships (with one shared with Oswego) and seven in the last eight years. Oswego is the next closest with seven titles.
Oswego placed two players on the All Tournament team — Woodward and Lukajic. Paul Kelly, Doug Carr, and Neilson were named from Plattsburgh along with Tournament MVP Kemp.
Oswego, a national finalist one year ago, ends its season at 19-9-3.
Plattsburgh gets an automatic bid into the NCAA playoffs with a record of 22-4-3. The Cardinals will await Sunday's announcement to find out who and where they play.

Success Story: TK – 53 Year Old Needs More Energy
TK is a 53 year old vibrant female who came to Caring Medical with concerns over her hormone levels, high cholesterol, and osteopenia that had been diagnosed three months prior to her visit with us. TK was always a high energy person, but lately she felt like she was just not herself.
TK was interested in Diet Typing because she also wanted to lose about 20 pounds. Dr. Hauser ordered Diet Typing, Allergy testing, hormone panel, and a metabolic profile. Her Diet Typing results showed that she was a balanced oxidizer with a normal blood pH. Dr. Hauser prescribed the Hauser Bear Diet.
On her first visit with our nutritionist, her initial weight was 162 pounds and her body fat percentage was 33.4%. TK reported that she was following a dairy-free and egg-free diet. She had a dress size of 12 at the time of her first visit. After carefully reviewing TK's diet, the nutritionist recommended that TK decrease her carbohydrate intake (especially simple carbohydrates) and increase her protein intake in order to meet the Bear Diet proportions, making her diet much more balanced. She began taking the Bone Builder pack, a supplement that provides all of the nutrients necessary for building and maintaining bone mass, from www.Benuts.com.
One month later at her follow-up visit, TK's food allergy test results were discussed. A number of foods tested positive for antibodies: dairy, chicken, gluten, malt, cod, halibut, red snapper, sardine, sole, trout, orange roughy, walnut, avocado, pineapple, asparagus, garlic, and kidney bean. TK worked with our nutritionist to come up with meal ideas that fit within the Bear Diet plan, but also avoided her food allergies. She also began using a natural hormone replacement cream to boost her current low hormone levels. Dr. Hauser also prescribed weight-bearing exercises to be done at least three times per week to strengthen her bones.
TK returned for a follow-up visit with the nutritionist. Her weight was up to 172 pounds, however she had lost one pant size. She was avoiding all of her food allergies, but was still having trouble with garlic. The nutritionist suggested that she make a serious effort to avoid garlic for 2 weeks and see how she feels. She was also told to stay on her current Bear Diet.
TK returned to Caring Medical and reported that she was down to 148 pounds – right around her goal weight. She lost 2 dress sizes while on the Bear Diet. Her blood pH was within normal range.
TK maintains her health and her energy by following the Bear Diet, avoiding her food allergies, following her supplement regime, and monitoring her blood hormone levels. Her lipid panel showed that all of her cholesterol levels normal and her hormone levels were in great ranges.
TK now returns to Caring Medical once per year for a check-up on her optimal health maintenance. TK has a lot on her plate, yet she is able to keep up now that she has optimized her health. She cares for her mother, along with working two full time jobs, and still finds the time to exercise and take care of herself. She said, "I feel great, I sleep great, my digestion is great, and my energy is great!"
If you are looking to feel great and don't know where to start – give us a call! We would love to help you get on the road to feeling great!
Good foods can make you look great, bad foods can make you look not so great. These days we all need a little edge, why not make food your secret weapon! Make an appointment today!

Miami Dolphins: Combine QBs to keep an eye on
There are only a handful of draft eligible quarterbacks Miami Dolphins fans should pay attention to during this week's NFL combine.
Everyone else is too small, or bad footwork, or is inaccurate, or is viewed as too much of a project (which means a late round option).
Paying attention to anyone outside of these five names would really be a waste of time because they wouldn't fulfill owner Steve Ross' mandate of upgrading on Matt Moore.
The list starts with Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III, who the Dolphins would need to move up to the No. 2 or No. 3 pick in a draft trade to acquire.
The Cleveland Browns and Washington Redskins have far more assets to get that done, so don't bank on it.
But if you're enamored with getting a rookie starter pay attention to Texas A&M's Ryan Tannehill, who won't be throwing during the combine because of his foot issues.
Tannehill will likely be the third quarterback taken in the 2012 draft, and has all the tools needed to be a first rounder. However, he reminds me a lot of Chad Henne.
Then there's Arizona State's Brock Osweiler, a tall and athletic system quarterback. Oklahoma State Brandon Weeden, a 28-year-old with marginal feet, and Michigan State's Kirk Cousin, a quarterback with a decent arm and a leadership intangible.
Everyone else is viewed as filler.
"It's kind of interesting, after last year we had Ponder and Locker go in the first 12 picks and I think we were all surprised. I think the same thing could happen with Tannehill this year," NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock said. "He's got everything you want. He's got size, arm strength. He's a really good athlete. All you have to do is look at his tape as a wide receiver a year ago. He's a big, strong, fast kid with a really good arm. What I don't like about him is he waits for routes to develop before he throws the football. In other words, he lacks anticipation, and because of that he throws late in the coverage and makes mistakes. Now, that's not atypical for a lot of young quarterbacks in college football, especially ones that only have a year and a half of starting under their belt."
Mayock points out that he generally likes for starting quarterbacks to have at least 25 games worth of experience. That's the Bill Parcells school of thinking.
But few of the quarterbacks not named Andrew Luck and Baylor have that type of experience. As a two year starter, Weeden gets pretty close.
But it doesn't help that he's mature.
"When you look at Weeden, there are two negatives. One is his age. Everybody knows he's 28 years old. You have to decide as a franchise how much of a negative that is. The other thing is I think he struggles when he has to reset in the pocket. He's got to quicken up all the process in the pocket, feet, arms, decision making, everything," Mayock said. "He's 28 years old, and you have to ask yourself at what point is he going to be our starting quarterback? If the answer is immediately, somebody might take him late one. But I think he's more like a second round pick."
Osweiler is a giant (6-foot-8) with good feet. He had a basketball scholarship to Gonzaga, and really does move like a real athlete.
The problem I have with Osweiler is he played in a funky Dennis Erickson offensive at Arizona State, and you have to wonder about his development considering Erickson has a bad reputation with quarterbacks.
Plenty of the system Osweiler runs doesn't translate to the NFL, but that's nothing new.
Cousins has a solid arm, and a good track record as a leader. He and Arizona quarterback Nick Foles actually started at Michigan State together. Foles was the star recruit but Cousins beat him out, and Foles eventually transferred to Arizona.
I'm told by a friend in the scouting community that Cousins has the moxie that yours truly likes.
Moxie at quarterback goes a long way.

A five-run 9th inning nearly carried the Orioles to a dramatic, come from behind win but the Tigers held on to win 7-6 and take the first two games of the series in Detroit. After struggling at the plate through eight innings, the Orioles offense came to life in the 9th. With the tying run on 2nd base and only one out, Nelson Cruz struck out swinging and Chris Davis popped out to short left field to kill the rally and drop the Orioles to 1-4 on the season.
Starter Bud Norris gave up 9 hits and 5 runs in only 5 innings of work, and Brian Matusz gave up another two runs in relief to spot the Tigers a 7-1 lead going into the top of the 7th inning. Relievers Evan Meek and Darren O'Day shut the door on the Tigers and gave the Orioles offense and opportunity to get back in the game. The 9th inning rally featured a triple by Adam Jones that plated Chris Davis and a two-run double by Steve Clevenger. David Lough then hit a sharp grounder to shortstop Adrian Gonalez who threw too late to get the speedy Lough at first base, and Steve Lombardozzi came around to bring the Orioles within one run. With runners on first and second and only one down, Nelson Cruz struck out swinging on a pitch down and away and Chris Davis hit a lazy short fly to left field to seal the deal for the Tigers.
Although the Orioles had a golden opportunity to tie the game or even take the lead in the 9th today, the offense failed to produce more than a run in the first eight innings. Additionally, right-hander Bud Norris and southpaw Brian Matusz put pressure on the offense by giving up seven runs through six innings. Norris gave up a three-run double to Torii Hunter in the bottom of the 3rd inning and a two-run home run to Hunter in the 4th inning. Matusz threw 29 pitches in only one frame and gave up two runs to seemingly put the game away. Meanwhile, Tigers starter Rick Porcello stymied the birds by only giving up one run on three hits in 6 2/3 innings of work.
The Orioles are now 1-4 after winning on Opening Day against the Red Sox. A combination of unreliable starting pitching and an anemic offense has combined to keep the Orioles out of the last four games. Although some fans will likely expect Orioles manager Buck Showalter to make some moves to spark the offense and solidify the starting rotation, there is no real solution at the moment other than waiting for the team to develop some consistency. The 9th inning comeback was a good sign for this offense, and one should expect the Oriole bats to continue to come around as the weather warms up. Of course, they will have their work cut out for them tomorrow when the birds face Justin Verlander. As much as the Orioles need a win to earn some early-season respectability, tomorrow's game may be a challenge for an offense that has had trouble plating runs of late. Verlander will go up against Orioles ace Chris Tillman who pitched well on Opening Day but did not earn a decision. After Detroit, the Orioles head to Yankee Stadium for another American League East showdown.

Be careful what you fish for –Shark Week is upon us! Don't know what I am talking about? The Discovery Channel's Shark Week, first broadcast on July 17, 1988, is a wildly popular weeklong series of television programing dedicated to sharks.

This year Discovery is pulling out all the stops for its biggest Shark Week ever. It starts Sunday, August 10, and includes 13 hours of documentaries plus nightly live talk shows, which by the way is the most programming in the event's history.
While Shark Week always includes shows from previous seasons, new features include the highly anticipated Jaws Strikes Back, made in conjunction with the well-known Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and marine biologist and shark researcher Dr. Greg Skomal.
For the piece, Skomal traveled to out-of-the-way Pacific island of Guadalupe to film the hunting behavior of the largest great white sharks on earth, using the SharkCam, the world's only robot that can get close to a great white shark. The robot can even get bitten (for the definitive first-person perspective) and still keep filming. According to Amy L. Kukulya, a Senior Engineering Technician in Applied Ocean Physics & Engineering at Woods Hole, the "REMUS SharkCam is an autonomous underwater robot designed and built at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. It's the only robot of its kind capable of tracking, following and imaging large marine animals in their natural environments."
Be ready for Shark Week beginning on August 10, 2014 with irreverently-themed cocktails from TY KU Sake and ZYR Vodka. Sink your teeth into these recipes while you shake and stir them up like "the second coming of Sharknado." After all, with these delicious cocktails in hand, it may be a bad week to be a seal, but it's a darn great week to be you!
Blood In The Water
· 2 oz ZYR Russian Vodka
· 2 oz Club Soda
· 1 oz Grapefruit Juice
· Dash of Grenadine
Sake Shark Attack Sangria
· TY KU Sake Silver
· Wedges of Fresh Fruits
· Splash of Agave Nectar
Shark's Tooth
· 2 oz TY KU Coconut Sake
· 1 oz Rum

Eva Radich
Presenter of Upbeat
Eva comes from Hawera – the little town that produces broadcasters by the dozen – must be something they put in the water, or maybe that water tower?
At school she drove her teachers mad by asking subversive questions and it doesn't seem much has changed since.
You could say her broadcasting training began in the Hawera High debating team; free love, the war in Vietnam, legalization of marijuana and prostitution were just some of the memorable topics.
Armed with a BA in English literature and theatre Eva tried teaching but it wasn't long before the lure of the footlights proved too strong. Acting didn't bring fame and fortune but it sure beat the 9-5 routine. But after ten years as a struggling actor she was ready to get serious about a career.
In 1986 Eva discovered her niche: radio. The intimacy of the studio, the magic of the microphone, the way people will tell you things when they can't see you. She says it's the only medium where you get paid to ask embarrassing questions and have fun!

On June 30, 2009, Bowe Bergdahl went missing in Afghanistan. My unit within the US Special Operations Command along with a select few SOF units, were alerted to conduct a hostage rescue/recovery mission in Afghanistan. The A.O. (area of operation) had stood down upon receiving the intel of Bergdahl's disappearance. My element composed of 35 men, was alerted and sent to our briefing room to conduct our necessary planning in order to try and retrieve Bergdahl.
The intel that we were given at the time consisted of the following:
- Bergdahl D.O.B: March 28, 1986
- Assigned to 1st Battalion, 501st Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, based at Fort Richardson, Alaska.
- Bergdahl's unit was sent to an outpost called Mest-Malak in Afghanistan to conduct counterinsurgency operations.
- We had all been given copies of his military issued ID card along with his PASS or FAIL security questions.
- His unit had been on a patrol where he had fallen behind during an enemy ambush and captured. (This has been proven FALSE through written and sworn statements from members in his unit, one of them being a man initialed N.B and my unit commander talking directly to Bergdahl's GFC. There were no patrols on the night that Bergdahl went missing and Bergdahl had stated multiple times his desire and ambition to leave.)
With the intel that we had received that night, we kitted up and loaded two Chinook helicopters. With the support of multiple air assets, we flew to the last known location where he had been taken captive during the "ambush".
As the HELO's landed and we offloaded into the town, everyone noticed something oddly wrong. Absolute silence. There were no signs of enemy personnel, the expected AK-47 and M-4 shell casings were nonexistent, etc. I cannot at this time disclose the events which followed pertaining to this operation.
Although his unit had been placed on a gag order and told not talk about the incident, after several weeks of failed attempts to rescue Bergdahl and the loss of at least 6 known personnel, the entire story began to unravel.
According to Afghan villagers and elders close to the outpost, Bergdahl had asked where he could find the Taliban. A few children in the area also stated that they saw an American acting funny and wanting water while another local Afghan child had seen Bergdahl walk off the post. According to a few close friends of his and some letters he wrote home, he just wanted to find himself. Bergdahl left behind his weapon and other sensitive items, shipped his personal belongings home to Idaho, only taking some water and his knife.
Bergdhal had simply become disenchanted with Army life and wanted to seek out the Taliban on his own free will. He stated this in his letters home to his family as well as others in his squad and unit.
As more of the information came in, my unit, along with others in the community, simply stopped looking for him. As for the videos of Bergdahl in military and Afghan attire, we were privy to analyze and dissect all of the "unedited" video. We realized that he had vowed to help the Afghan people (meaning Taliban), and teach them tactics he had learned through his training. As for what he may have taught them, we are not sure, but we can say that American casualties and the amount of attacks in the area did increase following his capture.
After seeing what his father, now turned Muslim, had to say about his son in Afghanistan, I am truly appalled. During his opening speech given at the White House, his father praised him for "helping" the Afghan people and pushing for the release of all those detained in Guantanamo Bay. In the same speech, Mr. Bergdahl's father went on to praise Allah saying, "bism allah alrahman alraheem" which means "in the name of Allah the most gracious and most merciful".
Here is what I know, not from hearsay, but because I was there. Bergdahl became a sympathizer, walked off his post to seek out the Taliban in order to join their ranks, to help and live with them. In exchange for his release, the United States released the following 5 known Taliban; Khairullah Khairkhwa, Mullah Norullah Noori, Mullah Norullah Noori, Abdul Haq Wasiq, Mohammed Nabi who were immediately welcomed back into the Taliban network. The Taliban are currently seeking the release of additional prisoners, but will not state specifics. Now that they have the blue print on how to accomplish this by simply capturing an American soldier and with the troop number drawing down to 9,800+, I can only hope our service men and women keep their heads on a swivel.

Tech Opens Outdoor Season in San Antonio
March 20, 2014
Texas Tech opens the 2014 outdoor season Friday in San Antonio.
SAN ANTONIO, Texas - The Texas Tech track and field program is set to open the 2014 outdoor season this weekend as the Red Raiders and Lady Raiders compete at the UTSA Invitational. The two-day meet begins Friday and continues through Saturday, and will serve as the official opening of the Park West Athletics Complex on the UTSA campus.
The UTSA Invitational will be the first home outdoor meet at UTSA since the 1995 season. Texas Tech will join programs from Houston, Texas, Texas A&M, Texas A&M Corpus Christi and host school UTSA in the scored meet.
Friday's events are scheduled to begin at noon with the start of the men's decathlon along with the women's javelin and men's hammer throw. The women's heptathlon is scheduled to begin at 12:30 p.m.
The meet will continue Saturday beginning at 9:30 a.m. with the continuation of the decathlon and heptathlon. Events on the track will begin at 11:55 a.m., while field events will follow beginning at noon.
The Red Raiders open the 2014 outdoor season on the heels of the program's fourth-straight top-25 finish at the 2013 NCAA Outdoor Championships. The Red Raiders finished third last year at the Big 12 Outdoor Championships with 117.5 points - the highest point total for the squad at the outdoor conference meet since winning the Big 12 in 2005.
The Red Raiders return 13 All-Big 12 performers from 2013 along with two legs from the All-Big 12 4x100 relay, and two legs from the All-Big 12 4x400 relay. Among those returners are 2014 NCAA Indoor All-Americans JaCorian Duffield and Bradley Adkins, who tied for fifth in the men's high jump.
Also making his return for the Red Raiders is two-time NCAA National Champion Kennedy Kithuka. The Kenya native brought home Tech's first men's national title in the 5,000-meter run at the 2013 NCAA Indoor Championships.
The Lady Raiders, who finished sixth at the 2013 Big 12 Championships, return 11 All-Big 12 performers, along with two legs from each the All-Big 12 4x100 and 4x400 relay squads.SPRINTS
Junior Cierra White opens her junior outdoor campaign for the Lady Raiders this weekend. The Philadelphia native enters the season as the reigning Big12 Champion in the 100-meter dash - Tech's first by a Lady Raider since 2001. White holds the school record in both the 100-meters (11.09) and the 200-meters (22.89). She's the only Lady Raider in school history to record a time under 23-seconds in the 200-meter dash in legal wind (< 2.0). Tech will also look to benefit from the return of All-Big 12 sprinter and relay leg Joseph Richards III. He finished sixth in the 400-meter dash at the Big 12 Outdoor Championships last year and enters the outdoor season with a collegiate best time of 46.60 in the event. HURDLES
The Red Raiders return a crop of talented hurdlers for the 2014 outdoor season including 2013 All-Big 12 performers Dwayne Extol, Tramaine Maloney and Le'Tristan Pledger. Pledger enters her sophomore outdoor campaign after qualifying for the NCAA Indoor Championships in the 60-meter hurdles. She also set school records in both the 55-meter and 60-meter hurdles during the stellar season. Pledger qualified for the 2013 NCAA Outdoor Championships in the 100-meter hurdles and enters the season with a collegiate-best wind-legal time of 13.29 seconds - good for No. 8 all-time at Texas Tech. Maloney earned All-Big 12 honors in both the 110-meter hurdles (3rd) and the 400-meter hurdles (7th). Maloney qualified for the regional meet in the 110-meter hurdles last year while Extol qualified in the 400-meter hurdles. DISTANCE
2013 NCAA Indoor 5,000-meter Campion and NCAA Cross Country Runner-Up Kennedy Kithuka returns to the track for his senior campaign this weekend. Kithuka, during his senior indoor campaign in 2013, set school records in each the mile, 3,000-meter run, 5,000-meter run and as a member of the Red Raider distance medley relay team. Kithuka is entered to run the 800-meters this weekend. The Red Raiders also return the services of Big 12 800-meter Champion Nick Rivera. Rivera became the first Big 12 athlete to sweep the indoor and outdoor conference championships in the event since 2008. Returning for the Lady Raiders will be reigning All-Big 12 athlete Sharlene Nickle who finished fourth at the Big 12 Outdoor Championships in the steeplechase. HORIZONTAL JUMPS
The Lady Raiders return the services of 2014 NCAA Indoor qualifier Le'Tristan Pledger for the start of the outdoor season. Pledger, who was also a national qualifier in the 60-meter hurdles, was a double qualifier in both the long jump and 100-meter hurdles for the 2013 NCAA Outdoor Championships. She enters the 2014 outdoor season with an outdoor collegiate best leap of 6.37-meters (20'-10.75") which ranks third in school history. She finished fourth at the Big 12 Conference meet. Also returning for Tech will be Shujaa Benson who finished the 2013 season strong, placing fourth at the conference meet in the long jump. He boasts a career-best of leap 7.58-meters (24'-10.50") - he went on to qualify for the regional meet. The Lady Raiders will also look to benefit from All-Big 12 performer Gionna Jackson who finished sixth at the 2013 Big 12 Outdoor Championships and recently earned All-Big 12 honors in both the long jump at triple jump at the Big 12 Indoor Championships. VERTICAL JUMPS
Texas Tech is fresh off a historic performance at the NCAA Indoor Championships in the men's high jump. Junior JaCorian Duffield and sophomore Bradley Adkins tied for fifth in the competition at the national meet - marking the first time in 15 years that a duo from the same program finished in the top-5 at the NCAA Indoor Championships. The pair finished 2-3 at the Big 12 Indoor Championships and also broke a 30-year-old school record in the event as they each cleared 2.23-meters 7'-3.75". The pair finished 2-3 at the 2013 Big 12 Outdoor Championships before qualifying for the NCAA meet in Eugene. Duffield is the first two-time All-American high jumper in program history while Adkins' earned is his first career All-America honor during the indoor season. Senior Kyal Meyers returns for the Red Raiders in the pole vault - he finished runner-up at the 2014 Big 12 Indoor Championships and also finished runner up at the 2013 Big 12 Outdoor Championships - he boasts a career-best outdoor clearance of 5.41-meters (17'-9"). All-Big 12 performer Michaela Palu, who finished seventh at the 2013 Big 12 Outdoor Championships also returns for the Lady Raiders in the high jump. THROWS
The Red Raiders return the services of junior All-American Kole Weldon along with a talented crop of Tech throwers for the 2014 outdoor season. Weldon finished runner-up last year at the Big 12 Outdoor Championships in the shot put before going on to finish third at the NCAA Championships. Weldon threw a season-best 19.43-meters (63'-9") in 2013 - good for No. 2 all-time at Texas Tech. He was the only Big 12 athlete to score at the conference meet in each the shot put, discus and hammer. The Lady Raiders will welcome back Hannah Carson - the school record holder and 2013 national qualifier in the javelin throw. Also returning will be All-Big 12 thrower Natalie Thompson in the javelin, and All-Big 12 thrower Jorge Garcia in the men's shot put.

NEW YORK (AP) — The president of an Oregon investment research firm has been arrested on conspiracy and securities fraud charges in New York City.
John Kinnucan of Portland, Ore., was awaiting an initial court appearance Friday in Manhattan. He was arrested late Thursday.
The president of Broadband Research LLC is accused of obtaining secrets about publicly traded companies and selling the information to Broadband's clients.
Prosecutors say those clients included hedge funds and money managers.
U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara says Kinnucan used financial incentives, fancy meals and other inducements to curry favor with public company insiders.
Authorities say Kinnucan then obtained inside information about earnings reports between 2008 and 2010 and relayed the numbers to his clients.
It was not immediately clear who will represent Kinnucan in court.

10 March 2010
|Adi Rum and Damian Kovach
Monash IT graduates Damian Kovach and Adi Rum have created an original and successful business that combines their skills in computer science with their interest in health and fitness.
Soon after graduating they created an online fitness search engine that matches people to gyms and fitness centres in the area they live.
Three years down the track they work on the business 10 hours a day. The Local fitness website receives more than four million hits a month and gyms large and small want to be involved.
"Our concept was simple," explained Damian, who completed a double degree in science and computer science at Monash in 2006.
"We wanted to be able to give people an exact match to their needs in the least amount of time. We merged our knowledge of IT, psychology and fitness and came up with the lifestyle search, where without having heard of yoga, you can search by 'body and mind' and be introduced to yoga, pilates, and anything else that fits that category, sorted by proximity to where you live.
"Browsing every fitness business site can take hours. Using the lifestyle search we bring this down to 10 seconds."
Adi became interested in the area of human-computer interaction during his computer science degree and then pursued knowledge of human behaviours in a Graduate Diploma in Psychology.
"Understanding behavioural sciences helped me design a fitness search engine based on the key variables that influence fitness participation," Adi said.
"Location is fundamental as is choice; people want to find what suits their personality."
Damian and Adi met at Monash and worked together on group projects through their computer science degrees.
Damian started a job with an IT consultancy after finishing study but wanted a more people-focused job.
"We noticed from our own experience that gyms had a poor presence online and were generally not good at communicating what they offered," Damien said.
"We felt we had the technical skills to design and build the website architecture, so I quit the job and we've worked on it flat out ever since, learning a lot about online marketing and gaining valuable business experience through mentors and people we have met along the way."
In late 2009 the business started to expand to other states after establishing good relationships with hundreds of clients in Melbourne including well-known franchises and those run by local councils.

The Islamic group Boko Haram, (in Hausa means "Western Education Is Sin"* and this is the root of the reason the Taliban tried to murder the 14-year-old girl Malala) has kidnapped and is holding 223 girls taken from a school in Nigeria. The leader of the group, Abubakar Shekau, said on a video obtained by the French media that the girls will be sold as slaves. He said, "I abducted your girls. I will sell them in the market, by Allah." Yesterday, May 6, 2014, the US government announced it is sending a team to help the Nigerian government locate and free the girls.
This very horrific and tragic situation provides Deists and freethinkers with a very important talking point that should get everyone we bring it up to to THINK. That talking point is that as disgusting as this situation is, it is in line with all three "holy" books of the Abrahamic "revealed"/hearsay religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
The Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, which Judaism, Christianity and Islam all look at as being at least part of "the Word of God", actually claims God put a monetary value on people. Leviticus 27:3-7 has God saying: "And thy estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary. And if it be a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty shekels. And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels. And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver. And if it be from sixty years old and above; if it be a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels." Clearly the Hebrew/Jewish god doesn't value human beings very highly and values girls and women much lower than boys and men and doesn't value at all unborn babies or children under the age of one month.
Leviticus 25:44-46 has the Jewish/Hebrew god instructing Jews/Hebrews not to own their fellow Jews/Hebrews as slaves but to only own Gentile people as slaves. It reads, " Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids. Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession. And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour."
Christianity actually teaches slaves to be good slaves and to live in fear. 1 Peter 2:18 teaches people who are slaves as follows: "Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward."
Most people who value freedom and liberty look at freedom and liberty as being God given as is made evident by the Deistic document the Declaration of Independence. The Bible teaches the opposite. 1 Timothy 6:1-2 teaches Christians, "Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed. And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort." According to this, any slave that doesn't believe the person who owns them and is their master is not worthy of honor blasphemes against God and God's doctrine. Of course what the religions teach is "God's doctrine" is NOT God's doctrine but is in reality only the ramblings of ancient ignorant men. This Bible passage also shows it is alright for Christians to own fellow Christians as slaves since it teaches about Christian slaves who "have believing masters." The Bible truly is repulsive!
The Quran, like the Bible, teaches slavery is acceptable. Unlike the Jews, who are taught not to have fellow Jews as slaves but to take all of their slaves from Gentile people, Islam allows Muslims to own fellow Muslims as slaves much the same way Christianity teaches Christians can own fellow Christians as slaves. Surah 4:92 makes this clear when it talks about "believing slaves." It reads, "It is not for a believer to kill a believer unless (it be) by mistake. He who hath killed a believer by mistake must set free a believing slave, and pay the blood- money to the family of the slain, unless they remit it as a charity. If he (the victim) be of a people hostile unto you, and he is a believer, then (the penance is) to set free a believing slave. And if he cometh of a folk between whom and you there is a covenant, then the blood-money must be paid unto his folk and (also) a believing slave must be set free. And whoso hath not the wherewithal must fast two consecutive months. A penance from Allah. Allah is Knower, Wise."
Surah 33:25-26 seems to apply directly to what is going on in Nigeria today with the unfortunate 223 kidnapped/captured girls who are being sold into slavery. This Quranic quote reads, "And Allah repulsed the disbelievers in their wrath; they gained no good. Allah averted their attack from the believers. Allah is ever Strong, Mighty. And He brought those of the People of the Scripture who supported them down from their strongholds, and cast panic into their hearts. Some ye slew, and ye made captive some."
If this situation and these teachings from the "holy" books do not make it crystal clear that we desperately need a revolution in religion based on our innate God-given reason and Deism as Thomas Paine called for in The Age of Reason, The Complete Edition then I don't think anything will.
*The clergy have power over people when they can get people to believe in "sin" (which the clergy themselves defined). To take a bite out of this power of the clergy and to help free yourself and others from this "revealed"/hearsay religious power visit our Declaration and Certificate of Sinlessness page here. It's time for people to emphatically just say NO to the "revealed"/hearsay religions.

- The most valuable swimmers were Naja Harvey (Orono, Minn.) and Matt England (Bangor, Maine)
- The most improved swimmers were Cece Mceachern (Ellsworth, Maine), Ben Hebert (South Berwick, Maine) and David Vittori (South Berwick, Maine).
- The Chandler Comeback award was awarded to Lauren Joliat (Fayetteville, N.C.) and Kenny Regan (Hollis, N.H.).
- Naja Harvey (Orono, Minn.) and Robbie Bickford (Milford, Maine) were each awarded the Palmer Plaque for Academic Excellence.
- Hayli Weitz was awarded the Miller Diving award.
- Becca Bonnett (Bath, Maine) received the Senior Service Award.
- Taylor Sharp (Burlington, Ontario) and John Carlucci (Danbury, Conn.) received the Erin Woolley Memorial Award. The Erin Woolley Memorial Award will be awarded annually in memory of Erin Woolley (1984-2010), who was a member of the swimming and diving team from 2002-2006. Woolley never failed to brighten the day with her spirit, spunk and zest for life in and out of the pool. Her dedication led to inspiring performances, often as "lead dog" at America East. She left us far too soon, but her memory and character are forever in our hearts. The Erin Woolley Memorial Award will be awarded annually to an underclass member of the team that best embodies the contributions that Woolley made to the program.

Bermuda Field Course 2012 :: Daily Report
Day 01 | Thursday, March 08, 2012
Travel to Bermuda and arrival at Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences
Today was an exciting day! We all woke up super early, with very little sleep (if any at all) and met at the Wilmington International Airport at 5:30am. We departed Wilmington about 7:30am for Bermuda via Atlanta, arriving around 2:30pm our time, 1:30pm Bermuda time. We loaded into the taxis and headed to the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) which is to be our base for the next 10 days. BIOS is in the parish of St Georges on the East end of the Islands and is absolutely beautiful. After we all dispersed to settle in to our rooms, we went exploring. Some stayed on the campus, while others napped or went for a run. On campus, the concrete beach was one of the first sites we came upon. It is interesting to see a beach made of concrete when we are so used to sandy beaches like Wrightsville. Another thing that struck us was that the weather is much colder than expected, but the water is so amazing; the prettiest aqua-light blue! It's stunning! However, Bermuda beaches do accumulate trash and plastics and it's really sad to see such amazing waters polluted with this debris.
We all met for dinner and were surprised to get such great food at a field station! After dinner, we all made the trek into the historic town St. George's (the town nearest us), which was once the capital of Bermuda. While walking to town we had to be really careful, always keeping the flashlights in the front. The roads are really narrow and windy here, the cars just buzz by you so fast! When we finally got to the town, it seemed like everything was closed down. We stumbled upon a marina with a large sail boat. The sign said "School at Sea" and there were many students aboard speaking different languages. We stopped to take several pictures of the vessel. We then found a little grocery store and after making a few purchases headed home. Some of us took some blankets down to the concrete beach and gazed at the stars and the gorgeous moon, while others hit the hay. The view was just outstanding and we all enjoyed one another's company. Needless to say, it was an amazing day and all of us were so happy and thankful to be here.

Last Tuesday, I went for a ride with James Fry, executive director of Mean Street Ministry, whose faith-based outreach program visits hotels along Colfax Avenue. Volunteers from various churches filled two vans, hitting the north and south sides of Colfax.
Our first stop was the Aristocrat, an old hotel that now houses the homeless (very temporarily) as they are released from Denver General Hospital. These people have a short amount of time (typically 2-8 days) to try to recover and find shelter.
As our van pulled up, the masses lined up to get burritos, some sweets, and a very small ration of bus tokens. MSM also passed out bibles, a few toys and some plastic Easter eggs for the children. But the main mission was to offer a friendly face and some emotional support.
We broke off into groups of three, with baskets of burritos and donuts, and started knocking on doors. I was with Ebony and Craig, two very out-going volunteers that got people smiling and laughing in very short order. The saddest part of this visit was speaking with an older woman named Bonnie that claimed she had been raped and evicted with no real notice and was now scrambling to find a place to stay.
From the Aristocrat, we headed back west and stopped at the Mesa. Here, the people were more familiar to MSM, those that had been hanging on. Most of their income went to the rent, but James had known some of these people as long as eight years (about when he first started Mean Street Ministry).
I met a man in his late forties, in wheelchair, that had been run over by a truck back when he was 18. His legs were like sticks and some of his fingers were missing. Twice he had received help from MSM to allow him to stay at the Mesa, but money was running out again and he was scared. "I can't live out on the streets again. They beat me up. They take everything I've got."
We talked him through the anxiety and assured him that MSM would try to help him again. We took down an order for a food box that MSM would deliver to him that Thursday. One of many...
Before we left, James held a vigil for two people that had lived there for quite some time and had recently died. One was on his way to the liquor store and was held up for $4, but he wouldn't surrender his money, and so he was shot. But then he got up and made it to the store, bleeding all over the counter. James celebrated his life with a circle of volunteers and a few of the departed's friends.
"It's really not about the stuff we bring" said a volunteer named Dave. MSM is just trying to reach out to these people to offer some comfort and cheer.
Approximately 320 burritos are prepared each week for the trips. MSM hits east Colfax on Monday nights and west Colfax on Tuesday nights (6PM departure). As one of those coming from the religion of no religion, I felt quite at home joining this group. If you'd like to get involved, visit MSM's web site.
