I give up. ServerFault has been overrun by idiots and people that bought their first Ubuntu VPS an hour ago.
Everybody has to start somewhere. Why does that somewhere always have to be here?
It's clear that nary a single person reads anything here on their first visit beyond 'serverfault' (hey, I have a server! That's the place for me!#@) or even the 'post your question' button. Several times daily one has to ask 'what's your question?'.
I'm insulted by this. I will spend no more time on your question than it appears you put into asking it. Except when..
If it seems like you tried only once without bothering to even understand what it is you're doing before asking a question here... I'll probably spend quite a lot of time with your post. Just know that my comments and answers are filled with an incalculable number of f-bombs and gfy's via invisible type. You can imagine how it sounds as if I was saying it to you right now, out loud. I sound like Rob Schneider pretending to have a deep voice. Now say it out loud. You can do it! F___ Y__ and G_ F___ Y____s___!
If you're asking yourself 'Who is Rob Schneider?' right now, then please do this site a favor. Put down your VPS on digitalocean or your dedicated Hetzner root server and pick up a book on Linux. Sorry Windows guys, my skillset ends at Steam as do my witty references. Something about cake being untrue? I guess I could talk about Trumpet Winsock as well.
Seriously, what the flippity flap is a root server? Is it some magical place where all the sysadmins go to never have to deal with a failed DIMM or a backhoe molesting fiber ever again? And why do you think that matters when your problem is not hardware or network related?
50% of the posts here are questions that could possibly be relevant on day 1 of your 'Learn Linux' class. 50% of the posts are simply seeking free consultations. The other half are just stupid. Yes. 150% of the posts to Serverfault could be solved by reading a man page or even just the error you're actually pasting into the question.
I come here looking for challenging problems completely unrelated to what I'm being paid to work on when I need a break. 90% of the new posters here are simply too lazy to use google. If you actually do search google and see nothing about your problem, realize that the odds are about 300:1 that this has been solved and blogged about several times already. Research at least to the point where you know what to call the thing you're dealing with. You can't walk into a vet's office and say my uhh... you know.. not working. You can't do that shit here either.
I can't wait until the day all you devops and cloud enabled simpletons have a real problem to solve. You're going to get the middle finger and then you're going to lose your job to people that actually know how to fix things.

Three seasons ago a brand new series aired on ABC Family about two teens who were switched at birth, one of them being deaf and changing the way we watch television. The show even aired an almost complete silent hour filled with only ASL and subtitles. Katie Leclerc plays Daphne Vasquez on the hit show and she sat down to discuss her similarities with Daphne, how the show has changed her life, her upcoming movie and of course, beauty!
You are gorgeous! Would you share some beauty tips?
Hydration! Your skin looks so much better when it's full of water. I've been keeping on top of that. I just found a new face cleanser that I'm insanely in love with called Ultra Bland and they sell it at Lush. I don't like washing my face, but this is a cream you rub on your face and you rub it off with a washcloth. It's made with all natural ingredients including beeswax which is a natural emollient, so this way it removes makeup as well. I cant get enough of this stuff! I use it like three times a day.
What do you use on your hair?
I use a protein liquid when I get out of a shower. One is by Redken and the other by Kerastase. I mix the two together. I think its important to protect your hair with all of the straightening and hair drying. I skip daily conditioning and use the liquids.
What type of diet do you follow?
For some reason a lot of people think I'm a vegetarian, but I'm not. I don't follow any specific diet. I feel like you should eat what makes you happy. I do eat a ton of fruits and veggies. I have been obsessed with smoothies for breakfast and it's a great recipe. It's made with spinach, apple, celery, cucumber, ginger, parsley, lemon, lime and coconut water. The spinach makes it very smooth, and I drink that almost daily. I don't eat pork and I don't eat a lot of beef, but I do eat chicken.
How has it been spending so much time with your costars?
It sounds cheesy to say, but as we started everyone has high expectations and high hopes, and then we realized that the people we were going to be spending our lives with were actually really awesome! It made it easier to get into it as a family. Now that its season 3, we love each other, it's a giant love fest for 12 hours a day 5 days a week and I could not be more thankful not just for the cast members, but for the crew members and the writers and creators. Everyone just really gets along incredibly well. The serenity on set is that everyone feels that we are all contributing to something awesome.
Who is the biggest jokester on set?
D.W Moffett is a really big jokester and if anyone can get me to crack and break a line it's D.W. He pulls out all of the stops during peoples close ups and really tries to get them to crack.
What similarities do you have with Daphne?
Obviously I don't have the same speaking voice, but its really interesting that from the beginning they said they wanted Daphne to play a sport and they asked me which sport I played and I said basketball so they wrote that in. And they wanted Daphne to cook and they didn't ask me about it. Now I'm starting to think, as Katie, should I think about being in the medical industry? [laughs] Daphne and Katie are so parallel it blows my mind what they come up with.
Did you expect the show to be so well received?
We have amazing fans and I didn't expect it to be so well received, to be 100% honest. It was a dream come true that I was even in the pilot and then when the pilot got picked up I said to myself "if we get 10 episodes in it will be the best thing that's ever happened to me", and we are going on 75 episodes and its still the best thing that's ever happened to me!
How has it been working with Marlee Matlin?
Oh my gosh she is amazing. I was so nervous the day I met her that I walked up to her and said "my name is Katie" and I forgot to sign! I know how to sign but I put my hand out and it was shaking. She is so down to earth and shes got the dirtiest hands in the business. She has this incredible ability to make you feel comfortable from the minute you meet her.
What other projects are you working on right now?
I just wrapped a movie for Hallmark called "Cloudy with a Chance of Love", and I play a meteorologist who may or may not fall in love with her news director. It was great to do that. We shot the whole movie in 20 days, so it was really go, go go. But the director really got a great performance out of everyone. I grew as an actor on that set. I am really excited for people to hear my actual speaking voice. I'm excited to see the reaction! (Release date pending)
The Switched at Birth spring finale airs tonight on ABC Family!

Singers have a rocky history in their transitions to the big screen. Do we need a better example than Mariah "Glitter" Carey?
Norah Jones doesn't embarrass herself to that degree in "My Blueberry Nights," which came out on DVD last week. But she doesn't distinguish herself as a bona fide movie star, either. Then again, the fine cast around her also struggles with the material before them.
My Donne Tempo review expounds on the film's beautiful veneer – and its deeply shallow surface.

While the Oakland A's have been busy resolving disputes over the ten-year lease that will allow them to continue playing at the O.co Coliseum, Nicolas McGegan has been negotiating the renewal of his contract with Philharmonia Baroque. Yesterday the Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra (PBO) announced that McGegan has renewed his contract through 2020, thus adding to the 29 years during which he has served as the ensemble's Music Director. McGegan has an international reputation for his mastery of music from both the Baroque and Classical periods. However, what has particularly distinguished his tenure with PBO has been his adventurous pursuits into the nineteenth century. These have led to the release of concert recordings of "advanced" repertoire by composers including Hector Berlioz and Johannes Brahms.
McGegan released the following statement following his renewal:
Working with the musicians of Philharmonia has been a central part of my career, and I'm delighted to continue my collaboration with this exceptional ensemble. I look forward to many more seasons of splendid music-making together.
He will continue to play a central role in planning concert programming, recordings, and tours (such as this summer's "circuit" of East Coast music festivals). Details of the six programs for the 2014–15 season were announced last April when tickets went on sale.
Executive Director Michael Costa also released a statement regarding McGegan's renewal:
We are fortunate to have Nic at the helm of Philharmonia's artistic direction. His compelling artistic vision keeps Philharmonia at the forefront of period instrument performance in North America and around the world.
To this Board President Ross Armstrong added:
Since its origins in 1981, Philharmonia has grown from a passionate group of early music pioneers into one of the most accomplished period-instrument orchestras in the world. Nic's leadership, erudition and thrilling energy have all been key in propelling Philharmonia to the first rank of period-instrument performance movement.

To round off the opening day in Rio de Janeiro, the Bilikiki Boys caused an upset with a display of beach soccer that belied their embracing of the sport just a few short months ago. By imposing their unrefined yet mightily effective style, the islanders never allowed Cameroon to wrest control of the encounter.
''I really don't understand what happened to my players," admitted the Cameroonian coach Joseph-Antoine Bell. They seemed so nervous that they simply did whatever came into their heads. In view of all the chances we had, there is plenty of cause for regret, as we could still have won the game without actually playing well.''
As might have been expected, it was more a football match played on sand than a bona fide beach soccer encounter. What with two teams prepared to run and run despite the Brazilian heat, the early minutes were particularly frenzied. However, all that changed in fifth minute when, one on one with the Cameroonian goalkeeper, James Naka flicked the ball over his opponent before scoring into an empty net. It was a fine goal and one which will go down in history as the Solomons' first at the finals of the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup.
At the first break, with his side by then two behind, Joseph-Antoine Bell read his players the riot act. The former international goalkeeper urged his players to fight back and above all demanded greater defensive discipline.
But the rest of the match was to follow pretty much the same pattern as the opening twelve minutes. Although the Cameroonians did their level best to impose their own more aerial style on the proceedings, the Oceania champions lost none of their effectiveness. Moreover, in James Naka, they possess a first-rate striker who, as well as scoring all five of his team's goals, looked dangerous every time he touched the ball.
But in the last few minutes of the game, the Cameroonians finally decided to show why they are known as the Indomitable Lions, with a pair of late goals from Etienne Ngiladjoe and Benoit Eyoum making the defeat a little easier to digest.
''What we've just achieved is so incredible," declared a beaming Solomon Islands coach Eddie Omokirio. "We were unknown a few weeks ago, but beach soccer is allowing us to shine. It really is a dream come true.''

Lake Superior ice, large hail, a cold summer and snow top the list of Michigan weather events on this day in history. From the National Weather Service archives here events that happened on June 20.
1857 - Ice was still reported in Marquette Harbor.
1898 – Muskegon records their latest measurable snow on record with 0.5 inches.
1953 - An early summer heat wave peaked with temperatures around 100°. It was the hottest June day on record at Grand Rapids with a high of 102° and a sultry low of 79°. Lansing and Flint also observe their warmest low temperature for the month of June with a reading of 77° at Lansing and 78° at Flint. Several other cities observe daily records for the heat. Record warm minimum temperatures include Muskegon and Detroit with 77°, Houghton Lake with 72°, and Sault Ste. Marie with 64°. Some of these records were tied or broken during the steamy summer of 2012. Daily record highs include Lansing, Flint and Detroit, all with a reading of 97°. Flint would tie this record in 1988.
1979 - An F0 tornado touched down in the mid-afternoon 7 miles ENE of Iron River in Lake Emily in Iron County. It was 33 yards wide and was on the ground for 0.1 mile and did $2500 worth of property damage. In the late afternoon, another F0 tornado touched down near Chief Lake 8.1 miles SW of Republic, MI in Marquette County. It was on the ground for 0.1 mile, was 33 yards wide, and caused no damage.
1992 - Snow mixed with rain was reported a few miles north of Alpena. A trace of snow was reported early in the morning across parts of the U.P. The high temperature for Flint reached a chilly 51° after a cold front had passed the day before. This temperature reading turned out to be the record low maximum for this date. This record low maximum was one of several that occurred over Southeast Lower Michigan during the "Cold Summer of 1992". Other daily records for the chilly high temperatures include Lansing 58°, Alpena 46°, Detroit 52°, Houghton Lake 53°, and Marquette 47°. For Alpena this is the coldest June high temperature.
1995 - Houghton Lake observes record 100° on this day. Muskegon hit 98°, their highest temperature on record in the month of June. Their second hottest June reading of 95° would occur the following day.
2002 - An eight inch diameter popple tree and several smaller trees were blown down 3 miles west of Baraga in the early morning with wind gusts up to 69 mph in severe thunderstorms. A 14 inch diameter tree was blown down 7 miles northwest of Houghton. Thunderstorms ahead of a weak cold front impacted mainly western Upper Michigan overnight on the 19th and into the morning of the 20th. Some of these storms became severe during the early morning of the 20th, with large hail and/or damaging wind gusts in Ontonagon, Houghton and Baraga Counties.
2007 - Severe thunderstorms dropped large hail over portions of central Upper Michigan in the afternoon. The hardest hit areas were downtown Marquette and the southern area of Marquette south of Highways 28-41 and in Harvey where damage estimates from the storms were reported to be over $60,000,000. A large birch tree was down across Way Dam Road 7 miles northeast of Crystal Falls at 1427 CST with a lot of small hail covering the ground. Hail up to 3 inches in diameter (tea cup sized) fell on the south side of Marquette and in Harvey. The hail covered the ground, damaged many automobiles and roofs on the south side of Marquette and shredded leaves that clogged storm drains resulting in street flooding from melting hail in Marquette. Several trucks were damaged or totaled in Harvey with 3 inch hail (tea cup sized) at 1412 EST. After the hail fell, a dense ground fog formed and caused a brief period of low visibilities in the Marquette area. Several large tree branches down on Front Street in Marquette at 1403 EST. 1 inch hail (quarter sized) fell in La Branch at 1435 CST. Several four-inch diameter branches down, as well as a 14-inch diameter tree 2 miles southwest of Bagley at 1543 CST.
2012 - Thunderstorms forming ahead of cold front dumped widespread heavy rain over much of the west half of Upper Michigan in the afternoon of the 20th into the early morning of the 21st. Many locations throughout Gogebic County measured between two and three inches of storm total rainfall. A tree was reported down on a power line on Lake Road at Little Girls Point. Observers near Calumet measured nearly two inches of storm total rainfall. The Copper Harbor ASOS measured 2.01 inches of storm total rainfall. Locations from Michigamme northwest to Big Bay measured between 1.5 and 2.0 inches of storm total rainfall. Observers from Bergland and Paulding to Rockland measured nearly two inches of storm total rainfall. A 68 knot wind gust was measured by the Lake Superior buoy 45001 in the early morning.

San Francisco Ballet wraps up its 2014 season with works by the two master choreographers of the 20th century - George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins. The program features Balanchine's Agon and Brahms-Schoenberg Quartet, and Robbins' Glass Pieces.
Agon was the last of three collaborations between George Balanchine and Igor Stravinsky. Stravinsky based his work on a book of 17th century French court dances, the influence of which wasn't lost on Balanchine, as evidenced throughout the ballet. Although Agon was created as long ago as 1957 (for New York City Ballet), "It looks like it could have been choreographed yesterday," says stager, Elyse Borne, from the Balanchine Trust.
One of Balanchine's "black-and-white" ballets - no costumes, it's performed in simple practice clothes - Agon is a series of pas de deux, pas de trois and ensemble dances in which he uses the 'canon' principle to great effect (sets of dancers executing the same steps, one group after the other).
The title remains something of an enigma, since "agon" in Greek means a contest, or struggle, but Borne describes it as "full of humor", "a fun/serious abstract ballet, but it's a human-relationships one".
Balanchine's second work in the program, Brahms-Schoenberg Quartet, features four diverse but related ballets - ranging in style from the neoclassical, to the Romantic, then classical, ending with an exuberant gypsy-type work. Staging for San Francisco Ballet is by Francia Russell, former co-director of Pacific Northwest Ballet, who says that although this isn't one of Balanchine's iconic works, to her it's one of his great works, because of the variety in the four movements. Staging this ballet, she says, is all about the "music, music, music", and beyond that "it's always a challenge to persuade dancers to be free".
The music in question is Arnold Schoenberg's orchestration of the Brahms G minor piano quartet - prompted by his quoted statement that, although he liked the piece, "It is always played very badly, because, the better the pianist, the louder he plays, and you hear nothing from the strings ..... I wanted [for] once to hear everything, and this I achieved." (Conductor Robert Craft). Balanchine apparently felt that chamber music wasn't suitable for large ballets, because the pieces are "too long, with too many repeats, and are meant for small rooms." (George Balanchine Trust). An obvious meeting of minds!
When Jerome Robbins choreographed Glass Pieces for New York City Ballet in 1983, it was, according to one of his biographers, Amanda Vaill, "quite unlike anything else" in the Company's repertoire. For the score he chose music by minimalist composer, Philip Glass - Glass Piece # 1 (Rubric), Glass Piece #2 (Facades) and Glass Piece #3 (Funeral from Akhnaten).
Representing the pulsating rhythm of city life, Robbins' dancers (dressed in a colorful array of practice clothes), move purposefully hither and thither across the stage, too intent on their own lives even to notice when they're joined by three pairs of seemingly other-worldly characters who appear in their midst. In the next movement, a line of dancers shuffles in silhouette in front of a grid-like backdrop, behind a couple dancing "a coolly erotic neoclassical duet" (Amanda Vaill) - which, according to Ballet Master Betsy Erickson, "is like life going by while this couple is having this beautiful, breath-filled moment". It's followed by a wild, almost tribal-style, finale.
The remaining performances of Program 8 take place at the War Memorial Opera House on May 6, 7, 9 and 11. For further information on performances, times and tickets - as well as some video clips - visit the San Francisco Ballet website.

Return of the Exorcist
Writes Daniel Burke about the increase of exorcists in the U.S. Catholic Church at U.S. Catholic, "there are more exorcists in the United States now than at any other time in modern history, according to experts. More than 100 bishops and priests met in Baltimore last November to recruit dozens more." He continues:

We've been bringing you information on Spring 2014 trends for months now, and there's another one to add to the list: espadrilles. Designers have taken the lightweight and distinctive espadrille design and incorporated their own signature detailing to it, and the effects have been rippling out through the shoe market.
The more I browse online retailers, the more I've noticed these espadrilles in all variations. The flat version is great for casual weekend endeavors, whereas the wedge-heel version is dressier and can work with anything from distressed denim to a flared sundress. Check out some of our favorites across the spectrum below.

An upstate woman is offering a reward for the return of her dog. I was contacted on February 5 and asked to share her story on social media.
Stella is a German Shepherd mix who went missing from the Pelzer, South Carolina area on New Year's Eve. Her owner, Pam Leverett, has posted hundreds of flyers in the area without success.
Pam is also running newspaper ads, checking with the local shelters and has done a door-to-door search. A month has now gone by with no information on whether Stella is wandering the area, or someone has taken her in.
Stella is still missing, and Pam is offering a generous reward for the return of her baby. No questions will be asked. Pam just wants her dog back. Stella is dearly missed, and likely frightened being out on her own.
Please share Stella with friends, especially in the upstate South Carolina area. Stella may be out of the area by this time, so if you recognize her photo, contact Pam just in case. She can be reached at (864)787-8346 or by email at email@example.com.

SAFC Movember XI
by Stuart Vose
Charity push honoured with special side.
In honour of the month of Movember, we've put together a special SAFC Tache XI.
The yearly charity push helps raise funds and awareness around mens' health, including prostate and testicular cancer.
We've picked out 11 players from throughout the club's history sporting fine foliage, managed by Middlesbrough legend and former Sunderland boss George Hardwick.
The side lines up in an ambitious 3-4-3 formation, though little would get past our trio of centre-halves – Nyron Nosworthy, Emerson Thome and Charlie Thomson, who made 265 appearances for the club between 1908-1915.
And if opponents did manage to worm their way through, they'd come up against Barry Siddall in goal.
Into midfield, where Bobby Kerr and his legendary tache are patrolling. The little general's glorious upper lip is immortalized in the famous picture of him lifting the FA Cup in 1973.
He's joined by current star David Meyler, who took part in Movember for the first time last year and is doing so again this time around. Look him up at http://uk.movember.com/mospace/1632204.
Temporary tache-wearer Julio Arca is on one wing with Eighties winger Paul Atkinson on the other.
Turn of the century star Jimmy Millar, who scored 123 goals in 260 games during two spells with the club, slots in up front alongside Mel Holden, who spent three years on Wearside in the mid to late Seventies.
The pair are joined by a modern goalscoring legend, Kevin Phillips, who qualifies for the side thanks to an obscure archive pic and would certainly bring goals having scored 277 times during his career so far.
See above for a pictorial run-down of our Movember stars.

Isobelle! You naughty goat you!

Kezia is looking so much better and stronger and growing up, to boot! Her face is getting more character, as if she needed more, LOL!
Jack N Jill are itchy too, can't see a thing except pink skin, maybe some allergy to dew, or chiggers, or something. Poor Thistle!
Ravished? That poor hen looks like she was put in the tumble dryer!

Isobelle you are so good to share your blog. Your a good goaty!

Isobelle, as soon as Kezia is for sure on the road to recovery, we will be thrilled to see as many photos of your beautiful self as you or your lady wish. Remember you can become more beautiful on the inside if you let Kezia have a little of the limelight.

Great news, indeed! Kezia's hair will grow back, not to worry and if it doesn't, she's still beautiful!

It's so nice to hear Kezia is doing well, but I do think you should go on strike. All your adoring fans want to know about the life and adventures of Isobelle! You should practice flying and fly away and then your lady will be sad she neglected her. Then when she's all sad, you can fly back, and she'll be all excited because you came home to her! (I think I've been hanging out with the yearlings too much.)

It is really the blessings of our ancestors to have understood the importance of education during their period more than a century ago.
Srilanka became a colony when Portugese came here. They used this island for their commercial purposes. Later they started to spread religion and along with religion they were equally interested in the education of the indegenous. Therefore administration in all the school were done by the clergy. The curriculum and the management were according to their decision. The Schools were always close to the church environment. The development of schools and the education started from here. So this is where the foundation for education started for Vankalai. Our school has a history of evidence before the independence of Ceylon which was housed by the side of Church.
In the very early stage, this school was only a hut. Before 1900 this school was named as Vankalai Catholic Mixed School with very little number of children. Amongst this, the number of girls were only a handful.
The first Principal to start with the Varandha school was Mr.Soosaipillai of Jaffna, and then Pundit Gabrielpillai master. These both are the fathers of education in the then Vankalai. Mrs. Slomia Leena was the first lady teacher from Vankalai, who served with dedication along with Mr.Gabrielpillai.
In 1936 Mr.S. Barnabas colas took charge of the school with 226 students and 4 teachers in a half walled building. He served in this School till 1963 for a longer period of about 32 years. During his period i.e. From 01.05.1935,this School Started to function as Vankalai Boys' school and Chirst the king Girls school. On the request made by Rev.Fr.Soosaithasan Nalliah, Holly family nuns came and engaged in education activities from 1935. Then they took the responsibility of running the girls school.
The boys' school was changed as St.Annes' Boys school. In the Grede 5 scholarship examination held in 1944, 6 students(boys &girls)passed the exams with distinctions and was selected to Errukalmpiddy M.M.V to continue their studies. As there were religious barriers, they were not allowed to go there. After the barrier was removed, for many years the student who obtained Grade 5 scholarship awards joined Erukalmapiddy MMV and St.Xaviers's College,Mannar. Because until 1960, our school was a primary school managed by the clergy and the Dioces of Jaffna.
Then in 1960 a legislative act was moved to take all these kinds of schools by the government. The whole island opposed to this move. On this base our school also opposed to that at the beginning. The management –justified their points. But the government did not give in and under severe protection made some promises. In December 1960, this became a government school. But the standard of this school was not changed .Though there were so many Maha Vidyalayams and Madhya Maha Vidyalayams were coming up island wide, the standard of our school was the same. This situation brought an awareness about education among the parents & elders. As a result a delegation with the sponsorship of the then parliamentarian Mr.V.A.Allagacon, met the Director General of education and discussed the matter. This effort brought success on 05.01.1968. This delegation consisted of Mr.C.S.Samson Miranda, The Chairman, Village Council, Mr.Thiruchlvem –Principal, Mr.P.Abias sosai, Mr.T.Maximus lambert , Mr.F.Saverian Lambert and Mr. S. Gnapragasam Morais.
Mr. S. Adrian Mark took over the school and worked until 31.07.1974. During his tenure, on 12.06.1972, The Additional Secretary of the Ministry of Education, Hon. K. H. M. Sumathipala, officially inaugurated the Advanced Level Arts Stream. These students entered the university in 1975 and made a mile stone in the history of our school.
Mr. S. Soosaiappu peries was the Principal until 02.05.1978. Following that late Mr. S. Vethanayagam, former Zonal Director of Education, Mannar, became the Principal. Mr. T. Maximum Lambert succeeded him. The schools that were functioning as St. Anne's Boys' School and Christ the King Girls' school were amalgamated on 1981.10.01 and was up graded as St.Annes' Maha Vidyalayam. The idea to shift the school functioning, to the present location rooted at this point. As a result of Mr. T. Maximus Lambert's continuous efforts, the then Hon.Minister Rajadurai and the Member of Parliament Mr.P.Soosaithasan Sosai recommended the 1st 100' x20' up-stair block and the government fund was allocated. The foundation stone for this building was laid by the then Minister for shetler & Housing, Janab M. N. Mohamed.
The proposed land was a marshy land and also there were some residential houses. So there was a need to settle these people somewhere and take the whole land for t this purpose and to compensate for the houses. The government allocated funds for this purpose, which was not-enough to do all the work concerned. Therefore the foundation work was done on church expense and on sharamadhana basis by the villagers.
The then Parish council and late Rev.Fr.Mery Bastian were in the forefront to complete this work. The youth and the elders of this village willingly supported on this task.
Then Mr.F.Saverian Lambert succeeded up to 1984.05.18 and ran the school successfully. During his period a reverend Brother, namely Bro. Christy Dorus FSC, of De La Salle congregation rendered his services very dedicative.
Mr. A. Wilfred Sosai served as the Principal till 1985.06.01. Following him Mr. A. Auspice Croos took over. During his period of tenure, the A/L stream was expanded with the Commerce stream. These student ts sat for the A/L in 1987 and successfully entered to the commerce faculty.
According to the new reforms, the cluster school system was introduced to get-the maximum benefit used. our school was one of the centre schools for the cluster schools. Mr. A. Auspice Croos was the principal to this. The foundation stone for 80'x20' science lab was said in the new school prsmisses. Mr. Auspice Croos retired from the services on 1987.01.25 and the Deputy Principal Mr. C. Tiburtius Peries took over the school charge during which period the school was shiflted to the new premisses on 1987.05.07. Mr. A. Sebamalai became the Principal of this school and functioned as the cluster Principal from 1988.01.02 who discharged his duties very well. A remarkable development was seen in sports and education during his time. On the transfer of Mr. A. Sebamalai on 1990.05.15, Mr.B.Emil culas succeeded. On the awakening of the disturbances in the area again, the whole people of this village were compelled to displaces to south India, Madhu and to and Mannar Island. The school could not function any more. Therefore this school started to function temporarily at Mn/Thalvupadu RCTMS, from 1991.01.09. After some time, it was again shifted to a hut school at sunny village. Surprisingly and shockingly, this hut was burnt to ash by some unscrupulous people which was a heart breaking experience to the people of Vankalai who took education as their life. This incident gave more enthusiasm to the people to go forward in education and also to return to their village. As a result the educational activities resumed in the village from 1993.01.25, under the leadership of Mr. B. S. Emil culas. Also A/L Science stream was started. During his period of tenure a 90'x25' building work was commenced. He was transferred on 1994.07.11 and Mr. S. Soosaippu Lambert took the charge over. During his service period Mn/St.Anne'd M.V was promoted as Mn/St.Anne's Madhya Maha Vidyalayam on 1994.09.23. On the transfer of Mr. Soosaiyappu Lambert on 1995.07.25, Mr. A. Pancras sosai became the principal. During his tenure in 1995, the first batch in science/ maths appeared for A/L exam and successfully entered Medicine and Engineering faculties. While his service, Mrs. Anne Mary Arokkiyanathan took over the responsibility and discharged the best to the development of this school. She was the first lady Principal of this school. After her transfer, Mr.Pancras Sosai continued his service as principal.
According to the new reforms in educationintroduced by the government ,our Madhya Mahavidyalayam was divided as, senior & junior schools on the 1st of February 1999. At this Juncture Mr. A.Pancras Sosai administered the senior school and Mr. S. Remegius Peries functioned as the Junior school Principal. Mr. Pancras retired from his service on the 5th of June, 2000, and the then deputy Principal Rev. Bro. S. E. Reginald FSC became the Principal. During his period of tenure, the office of the principal was renovated and designed modernly. Following that Mr. Remigiar Peries became the senior school Principal and Mr. C. Maryamn Coonghe become the junior school Principal. While Mr. Mariyan Coonghe's period, foundation stone for the 100'x20' up stair block was laid.
According to the government circular, on 2002.06.01,the senior and junior schools were combined again and Mr. Remgius was transferred on 2002.05.19. Mr.C.Tiburcius Peries shouldered the responsibilities.
Then Mrs. L. Malini Weniton, who was functioning as a Deputy Director of Education in the Mannar Zonal Education office became the Principal. During her tenure, the basic needs of the schools i.e.- Water supply and Urinals were completed to a certain extent with UNICEF assistance. Also with the NECORD funds , foundation stone was laid by Mr. S.ariathasan Croos, Directorm, NECORD for a modern Library complex with three class rooms on 2004. 01.18.
This was declared open in 2005. An arch at the front entrance was erected with the money collected by the 1998/99 A/L students union and was declared open on the 18th January 2004. At the same period Mannar District was divided as Mannar and Madhu Educational zones. Mr. M. Abel Revel functioned as the zonal director of Education, Mannar and the Mr. A.Jusephlius Croos functioned as the zonal Director of Education, Madhu. We are proud to say both these Directors are from our village, Vankalai.
Following the transfer of Mrs. M. L. Weniton, to the Zonal Education office, the present Principal, Rev.Bro. S. C. Vijayathasan F.S.C. took over the school on the 3rd of Aug 2005. The physical and human resources brought to this school and the development taken place in education and extracurricular activities at present are immense. It is appropriate that a number of works that have been completed during his period, should be listed here. The intercom facilities to the sectional heads, renovation to the assembly hall, creating a green house, opening a new science lab, building a 5000lts. underground sump, erecting a children's park, renovation of the office and a new attached washroom, purchase of a settee set, opening a milk board, new kitchen for mid day meals, tree planting campaigns, erection of a basket ball court, moving volley ball court, a net ball court, purchase of athletic warm up kits, netball jerseys, prefects' blazers etc. On a special offer from the Governor for North, a 2000kv generator & 5 Nos. of LCD computers were obtained. Computer courses for students from Gr. 6 to 9 were started and running smoothly. Above all our school has been selected as an Isuru school and our village has been selected as an e'village during his tenure. We are very proud to state that during his period our school won a national level award in athletic competitions held in the year 2008 in triple jump. This brought fame to the entire district after a period of 20 years.
The history of our education goes beyond centuries. In these period, teachers from Jaffna and other places have stood as the pillars of education for generation and had rendered a high dedicative service to education. Specially the Holly family nuns, namely Rev. Srs. Monica, Jane mary, Emelda, Concepla, Basil, Valantine, Constantine, St.Paul , Andrew, Hilda Heart, Evresta, and Bibiana should be Praised for their spiritual and discipline life taught to the children of this village to lift up their life style to the standard of the entire country. Most of the above nuns are not alive today, but we remember them with sincere thanks and gratitude for their guidance.
In the long run of the history, this school has produced various walks of people such as, government administrative officials, Educationalists, doctors, engineers, adminstrative officers, Lawyers, teachers, Principals ,government employees, religious(as priests and nuns) politicians, sociologist etc. Though there were periods of down fall, on the whole, it has engraved a name In education as well as in sports and other extracurricular activities in the national level.
We pray that St.Anne will guide us all in future too.

Thinking of a Plastic Greenhouse?
Additionally, as plastic greenhouses are completely glass free, they're very safe for pets and children who may also run around in your garden. So what are the other benefits of owning a plastic model? Well for a start they offer you the ability to control the growing environment for your shrubs, plants and vegetables which helps you grow great quality produce and flowers in abundance.
Another reason that a Plastic Greenhouse is a fantastic option is simply that it gives even inexperienced beginners the opportunity to propagate and grow their favorite vegetables successfully, and maybe even some rare ones too! It's no secret that home grown fruit and vegetables taste so much better than the ones we buy in the supermarkets and stores, so why not grow your own better quality, better tasting, fresher vegetables this year and save money at the same time! Home grown produce gives the gardener full control of the growing techniques so you can be sure non of the potentially dangerous chemical pesticides ever touch your food!
Completely organic, healthy and fresh vegetables, straight from the soil or grow bag every single day of the season! Once you've tasted vegetables straight from the Greenhouse you'll never want to buy them again! Growing using a plastic greenhouse is simple and enjoyable, so you'll soon get some great result with only a small amount of effort and a surprising amount of fun! Not yet a green-fingered gardener? There's never a better time to get involved! Plastic Greenhouses are now available from a wide range of manufacturers and stores so why not make this summer the best growing season you've ever had?

Roc Nation Sports and Jay-Z continue to build their roster of athletes. The Jay-Z led sports agency has just inked a deal with New York Yankees star pitcher C.C. Sabathia.
C.C. Sabathia is a six-time all-star who has been with the Yankees since 2009, winning a World Series and ALCS MVP that same year. Sabathia joins the stellar lineup over at Roc Nation Sports that includes Kevin Durant, Victor Cruz, Geno Smith, Skylar Diggins, and former Yankee second baseman Robinson Cano.
Late last year, Jay Z and Roc Nation Sports helped Cano get a 10-year $240 million deal from the Mariners. So apparently Hov knows what he's doing. However, no details regarding this contract have been revealed yet.
A big fan of the Brooklyn rapper, Sabathia has supported Jay Z since arriving to the Yankees. He's been spotted many times at concerts, Jay Z's charity events, and courtside at Brooklyn Nets games. It was just a matter of time before it was official.
The deal is meant to have Roc Nation represent Sabathia on and off the field, according to ESPN.
"CC exemplifies everything Roc Nation looks for in an athlete and a partner," Roc Nation Sports president Juan Perez said about the deal in a statement to the ESPN network.
Roc Nation's verified Twitter account posted a photograph of Sabathia signing a contract next to Roc Nation's leader Jay Z.
Congrats to C.C. and Roc Nation Sports.

This should be really interesting….:
(Reuters) – President Barack Obama will announce on Friday a major overhaul of a controversial National Security Agency program that collects vast amounts of basic telephone call data on foreigners and Americans, a senior Obama administration official said.
In an 11 a.m. (1600 GMT) speech at the Justice Department, Obama will say he is ordering a transition that will significantly change the handling of what is known as the telephone "metadata" program from the way the NSA currently handles it.
Obama's move is aimed at restoring Americans' confidence in U.S. intelligence practices and caps months of reviews by the White House in the wake of damaging disclosures about U.S. surveillance tactics from former U.S. spy agency contractor Edward Snowden
via Exclusive: Obama to announce overhaul to controversial NSA program | Reuters.
This is the part of President Obama's job that I would not do, even if they offered me a million dollars a day to do it. Doing the balancing act between national security and privacy is not an easy task. On one hand, you have the people who want to protect America from terrorist attacks; on the other, you have those who want to keep the privacy of Americans safe.
The article goes on to say what Obama has in store. I highly recommend that you go read it. Because needless to say; this is going to make many people, on both sides of the argument, very unhappy.

As a retail marketer I understand and agree with you Jon, however as I am also a hair salon owner I'm a bit concerned about the examples used in your comment re what is left in the high street being a 'depressing mix'. The reason salons and coffee shops are commercially sustainable is that (the best) already are an experiential offer.
People can make coffee at home for pennies. People can choose to get a local neighbourhood or mobile hairdresser to cut / colour there hair. The reason that high street businesses like these survive is because they listened, learned and serve an experience.
Any brand, for it to be sustainable, needs to offer a customer experiential, emotional and economic value.
The insidious proliferation of charity shops and bookies would be a better illustration to the piece. Those places are depressing and offer little in the way of positive experience.

Light snow showers will continue through the morning commute making very slick conditions around Central Indiana.
As of 3:45 am 1/2″ of snow has fallen at the Indianapolis International Airport. We're expecting up to an inch of snow with some spots north of I-70 seeing up to 2″ of snow by 8am.
Flurries will continue throughout the day with highs only reaching the upper 20s.
This is below our normal high of 38 this time of year.
Tonight a we may get a quick dusting of snow. FutureTrak13 shows very spotty snow showers at 8pm.
A big warm up is coming our way with temps in the 50s by Friday… however… we are watching the weekend very carefully. Stay tuned as we continue to watch for rain or possibly heavy snow. The track of this system has still not been determined, we'll keep you posted!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Desertbella Nice scrub I'm surprised to find that the sample is different from the full size product. The beads in the full size product a lot more rare. It leaves skin velvety soft. It has disturbing fragrance, but as long as it washes off it is ok. February 28, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by siouxnyc The Product Does What You Suggest It Does -- EXCELLENT From the time I discovered the first Biotherm fragrance for men during a trip to Paris, I have found your products to be the best among the many deluxe lines of French skin preparations. Unfortunately, you discontinued the fragrance, which I had been subsequently able to purchase in New York for several years. It was clean, subtle, light and not arrogantly drawing attention to itself from a distance. When others noticed it, they always said how wonderful it was -- as are all your products I've tried and continue to use. Biomains is the finest hand cream I've ever found, but it is no longer available for purchase in the US market. I buy it at CDG when I find it in stock, and friends bring it to me when they are coming for a visit. You have never marked successfully in the United States, and I don't understand that. July 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JennL Smells Awesome! This is the best scrub on the market. It washes off well leaving skin very soft and clean. The awesome citrus smell is a bonus! October 4, 2012

John Shakespeare
Born in 1530, and outwardly an aspirational middle class gentleman of impeccable credentials, John Shakespeare, father of William, was actually a man of secrets.
Of farming stock, and raised against a background of country Catholicism, John had moved to Stratford in an attempt to better his lot. He gained some prestige almost instantly by marrying Mary Arden, whose family name was much respected in rural Warwickshire. He also became a successful Glover, constable of Stratford, Chamberlain in charge of the town's property and finances, and a year after William's birth he was appointed Alderman. He would rise to the rank of Bailiff, which carried with it the powers of a Justice of the Peace and later became Chief Alderman.
So on the face of it an acceptable member of Elizabethan society. But in the parlance of our times, John Shakespeare was also a dealer.
Not that he traded narcotics, but he did trade illegally in the hottest currency of the day, wool. The wool industry at this time was a state monopoly and the transference of material strictly controlled. John looks to have been quite successful in his illegal trade as a "brogger," using the money to buy property.
William uses many terms familiar from the wool trade in his works, so it is likely he was familiar with his father's activities. Accompanying his father on deals would also have brought him into contact with exactly the kind of shadowy amoral figures who would later populate his plays.
Throughout William's childhood, John seems to have fallen foul of the government's paid informers. When William was eight his father went before the courts on two charges of illegal wool dealing.
John might have been instrumental in first exposing William to the power of the stage. Coventry, just a day's ride away from Stratford, was then England's third largest city and the place where the Coventry Mysteries were performed.
Simple, often earthy and crude in a Farrelly brothers way, the Coventry Mysteries were Christian folk dramas largely taken from the New Testament. They were written specifically for their audience - unsophisticated ordinary folk - and drew large audiences. William seems to have a nostalgic affection for them later in life, and employed their people-pleasing style in his own works.
John's prosperity seems to have hit an iceberg in the winter of 1576-7. There was a crisis looming in the wool industry, and John began to skip public duties. The government became more punitive in its treatment of Catholics, with fines handed out to those who refused to attend Protestant church services. John also refused to pay a levy imposed on the town for strengthening the local militia presumably to fight off the much anticipated Catholic threat from overseas.
In 1578 John and Mary begin to strategically dispose of their land and property, the equivalent then of moving cash out of the country and into a Swiss bank account. Then, later that year, tragedy struck when William's seven-year-old sister Anne died.
At this time, John seems to bow out of public service, attending only one council meeting in ten years. He accumulates debts, over which he is sued by creditors. William is forced to leave school early. John, the once popular and successful Stratford citizen, seems by act of will or necessity to be opting out of the increasingly Protestant society.
It is thought that around this time John, perhaps as reaction to what he may have seen as petty government persecution, experienced a renewal or rekindling of his Catholic faith.
In April 1757 men working in Shakespeare's Henley Street birthplace found a handwritten testament of faith dating from around the time of Edmund Campion's mission to England. Each page of the testament was signed by John Shakespeare. John would later appear on lists of "obstinate papists," alongside more notorious Catholic sympathizers, for excusing himself from Protestant communion on the grounds of debt.
Later, William's daughter and John's granddaughter Susanna would appear on a similar list for failing to appear at Protestant Easter Communion in Stratford.
In the year of his own son Hamnet's death, William would take his father to London to try and acquire the status of gentleman for John. In Elizabethan times this badge of social advancement was acquired by trumpeting the past loyalty and achievements in the family's history.
Twenty years earlier John had made his own application, which had gone no further. With William's help the family finally gained a coat of arms beneath which appears the motto "Not without right." In the year that he lost his only grandson the coat of arms afforded him some immortality at least.
John may never have learned to write, but was educated enough to be able to read and conduct his affairs at the height of his powers in Stratford. Compelled by the danger of his times to facilitate the changes on his town demanded by central government, he seems to have done so with a gentle hand, something which would have been obvious and of irritation to Protestant modernizers. While his sympathies may have been more open than his son's there is a shared sense between them of being forced to operate between two worlds.
He died in 1601.

A new shop has provided an updated release date for the upcoming software product, "The Last of Us: Remastered." According to a report from Gear Nuke on May 30, an international retailer listed that the next-gen port should be arriving on Aug. 12. The unspecific region usually share the same release date as the North American territory.
So far, Sony Computer Entertainment has only announced a summer release period for "The Last of Us: Remastered." However, a representative did deny reports of a potential delay after some retailers pushed the date to Dec. 31 of this year. The individual confirmed that it is simply a placeholder.
The development for the PS4 port is apparently going smoothly at Naughty Dog as a lot of the new assets were already pre-made for the PS3 game. One of the potential problems is disc space as the product is apparently filling up the 50 GB Blu-ray. The development team decided to render the cut scenes at 1080p in addition to including all three DLC packs in the same package. Doing so may have push the amount of space to the limit, however.
Along with the improved cut scenes, Naughty Dog is also enhancing the in-game models for both the main characters as well as the enemies. The other changes include better lighting and some gameplay tweaks. You can find a screen from the original PS3 third-person shooting survival-horror game near the top side of this article (courtesy of the official Playstation Facebook webpage).
"The Last of Us: Remastered" is launching with a full price tag of $59.99. Naughty Dog did promise fans that some kind of upgrade plan is being put together so that existing owners of the PS3 game do not have to buy the same software product to play on the PS4. With the original version selling over six million copies, the port should be one of the most popular titles for Sony's new console.

The UFC returns to free television Saturday night with UFC on Fox 11: Werdum vs Browne. The main event of the evening will be a heavyweight fight between Fabricio Werdum and Travis Browne. UFC on Fox 11: Werdum vs Browne takes place at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida.
The winner of this fight is expected to face UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez. Velasquez won the title for a second time in 2012 when he defeated Junior dos Santos at UFC 155.
Travis Browne is the number 3 ranked heavyweight in the UFC. He brings a 16-1-1 record into his fight with Werdum. Of the sixteen wins, fourteen of those wins were finishes and twelve of those fourteen finishes came in the first round. Browne has notable wins over Josh Barnett, Alistair Overeem, and Stefan Struve.
Browne brings an awkward and diverse striking style. He posses solid speed and knockout power. Browne is light on his feet and moves around well in the cage.
When you talk about Fabricio Werdum you have to talk about his jiu jitsu skill. The number 2 ranked UFC heavyweight is a high level grappler and may be the best grappler in the UFC heavyweight division. Werdum is 17-5-1 with wins over Antonio Nogueira, Roy Nelson and Fedor Emelianenko.
Fourteen of Werdum's seventeen wins have been finishes. While Werdum is not a great stand up fighter, he has shown that he can stand up when needed. However, his strength is in his grappling and there is no doubt he will want to take this fight to the ground.
This is an interesting fight because you have Werdum who has a clear advantage on the ground, while Browne gets the clear nod in the stand up department. That is not to knock either guy's ability but it is an obvious difference when you look at the tools these two bring to the cage.
Browne will have a slight speed advantage and will need to use it to move away from Werdum's attempts to make it a grappling match. In the beginning of the fight Werdum will likely try to test his stand up versus Browne's. Browne will come out looking to use different angles to strike Werdum while not giving up many kicks that Werdum could convert to takedown attempts.
Browne will look to avoid the ground all together. His path to win is to keep his striking diverse, stay patient and out score Werdum. Werdum on the other hand, will need to use his striking to set up takedowns and make this fight a grappling match where he will have a big advantage.
Expect Browne to defend the takedowns early and for Werdum to either look for a way to pull guard or draw Browne into his guard. If Werdum is forces to stand up with Browne, it will be a long night for him. Likewise, if Werdum is able to get Browne to the ground you could see Werdum get the submission victory.
I think Browne will be a little faster and much stronger than Werdum and he will be able to stop the takedowns. Browne will force Werdum into a kickboxing match and win this fight by stopping Werdum by the third round.
Browne has quietly worked his way to the top of the UFC heavyweight division and could be the biggest threat to current champion Cain Velasquez. Browne is on a three fight win streak and UFC on Fox 11 is over he will have made it four in a row.
UFC on Fox 11: Werdum vs Browne airs live on Fox this Saturday night beginning at 7:00 p.m. central with the main card and 4:00 p.m. central on Fox Sports 1 with the preliminary card.

Mötley Crüe
The poster boys for Eighties metal, Mötley Crüe parlayed whip-lash hard-rock songs, melodic power ballads and a hedonistic image into platinum-level heavy-metal superstardom, topping the charts with Dr. Feelgood and coming close with Theatre of Pain, Girls, Girls Girls and a greatest-hits collection, Decade of Decadence - '81-'91. In late 2004, the four original members announced a full-scale reunion tour for the following year, marking their first outing since the late '90s. The tour coincided with the February release of Mötley Crüe's double-disc greatest-hits collection, Red, White & Crüe, which went platinum within six months of its release. The reunion tour was further celebrated by the release of a concert album, Carnival of Sins Live, in 2006, while a record of new material, Saints of Los Angeles, arrived in 2008. In keeping with their recent dedication to the road, the bandmates subsequently unveiled plans for Crüe Fest, a summer package tour that netted over 40 million during its inaugural year.

Brandi Glanville is known for her outrageous behavior on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." But according to a new tweet, things are going to be different during season five.
Instead of causing drama and feuding with her co-stars, Glanville claims to be in a better place, happy and excited for season five. In fact, she claims she's already said goodbye to the majority of her ongoing public feuds, which include beefs with LeAnn Rimes, Joyce Giraud, Scheana Marie and Lisa Vanderpump.
"Not sure if any1 noticed but I'm not in a feud with any1! I'm not perpetuating a non existent feud 2 get peeps to watch my tv shows! #ImHappy," she revealed, according to an Aug. 21 report by The Inquisitr. And she's right. For the last couple of months, Glanville hasn't been in the headlines much at all, and definitely not for any feuds.
Glanville has also reportedly made amends with Adrienne Maloof, who was her main nemesis on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" season three.
Although Maloof left the series after season three, she returned to filming for season five and she and Glanville quickly got back to the friendship they had years ago. As fans may recall, Maloof was the one who brought Glanville aboard the series, so it's nice to see them rekindle their relationship.
"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" season five premieres on Bravo this fall.

Kurt Rosenwinkel: Flute
Kurt Rosenwinkel (guitar)
The Remedy-Live at the Village Vanguard (ArtistShare)
Kurt Rosenwinkel (guitar), Mark Turner (tenor sax), Aaron Goldberg (piano), Joe Martin (bass), Eric Harland (drums).
Composed by Kurt Rosenwinkel.
Recorded: New York, NY, January 2006
Rating: 90/100 (learn more)
This track from Kurt Rosenwinkel's latest CD refers to the Japanese Shakuhachi flute traditionally associated with Zen Buddhist meditation. The serene melody Rosenwinkel penned (along with Eric Harland's cymbal textures) creates a reflective atmosphere and conjures up a certain eastern vibe which demonstrates two important aspects of improvisation. First, the idea of tension and release. As the melody concludes, pianist Aaron Goldberg begins his solo over a vamp which, unlike the melody, brings a stark tension and energy, so that when Mark Turner enters with a riveting sax solo performed over the original melody, a dramatic release occurs. The solo sections and melody create the wonderful yin and yang relationship - but they also represent the second aspect. That is, no matter how crazy it gets during an improvisaion, it is the soloist's duty to retain the spirit of the original melody-which is achieved in a transcendental manner here.

There was a blackout in Solon last night
No, the city had electricity, but for at least one night, the people and students of Solon came to support the new #1 girls basketball team in the Cleveland area.
And they all wore black
On a night where Solon honored senior players Arianna Harper, Kristen Confroy and Alexis Gray, the rest of the players on the team wanted to send them out on a high note in their last regular season game at the school.
Mission Accomplished
Solon used a hot first quarter and a vice-like defense in beating Twinsburg for the second time this season 55-37 in front of a good crowd in Solon last night.
The game featured a match-up between Twinsburg's Baleigh Reid, who was coming off a 35 point effort in her last game, and Confroy, a University of Maryland recruit and a favorite to win Ms. Basketball in the state of Ohio. A couple things became clear right after the opening tip-off:
Solon is good, Solon is deep, and Solon has a great supporting cast
Using a baskets by freshman Dee Bekelja, Alexis Gray, and a banked in three pointer by Jordan Bekelja (I heard her call glass), the Comets darted out to a quick 9-2 lead and never really looked back. Two three pointers by Confroy and another by freshman Alexis Stover allowed Solon to stretch the lead to 19-6 after the first quarter. Nine different Comet players saw action in the first quarter, and that depth would take its toll on Twinsburg later in the game.
The second quarter saw some sloppy play from both teams, as both teams struggled to score and take care of the ball. Twinsburg picked up its intensity on defense, and held Solon to just 25 percent shooting in the quarter. Problem was, Twinsburg was having a hard time just making passes, let alone scoring. Solon took a 26-14 lead into the half.
In the second half, Solon's defensive pressure finally began to affect Twinsburg. With the Bekelja sisters providing constant pressure, Solon stretched the lead at the start of the third quarter off Twinsburg turnovers. Confroy hit Gray with two great passes off high pick and rolls to give the Comets their biggest lead of the night at 43-22 early in the third quarter. Twinsburg was having trouble finding another scoring option besides Reid, as the Solon defense kept coming at them in waves, taking a 39-22 lead into the fourth quarter.
The final quarter was just a matter of playing things out, as the lead never dipped below 15. Solon was able to take their three seniors out of the game at the same time with about two minutes left, and they were greeted with a "Thank You Seniors" chant from the Comet student section. The game plan seemed to be that Reid and Confroy would each get their points and basically cancel each other out. Solon would bet that "My four players left are better than your four players left"
They were right
Confroy led Solon with 16 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals. Alexis Gray finished with 14 points and 10 rebounds, and Dee Bekelja added 11 points and 5 steals. Baleigh Reid led Twinsburg with 16 points, while Marissa Howard added 11.
Solon was good, not great. They need to be in the form they were in when they took down Wadsworth last week heading into the tournament, which starts on Saturday night when the Comets host Aurora in a first round tournament game. All in all, it was a good win, against a good team, and the seniors enjoyed a nice Senior Night.
And there were actually people that saw them do it. It's a trend we all hope continues
