It's probably falls into the "Hard to Believe" category, but Jerry Lewis was one of the top box office stars of all time. From 1951 through 1963, Jerry Lewis made the list of Top 10 Money Making Stars 11 times, either with Dean Martin or solo, failing to make the list only in 1959 and '60.
Dino, himself, didn't make the list again until after the ebb tide of Lewis' screen popularity went out. Martin made the Top 10 List of Box Office stars twice as a solo act: Buoyed by the Matt Helm spy spoof series, he cracked the Top 10 in 1967 and '68, ranking #4 & #6, respectively.
Two years after making their film debut as supporting performers in My Friend Irma, Martin & Lewis were voted into the Top 10 in 1951, coming in at #2, topped only by John Wayne. It was the first of six straight years on the list. Ironically, 1951 was Abbott & Costello's last year in the Top 10. (Show business legend has it that Martin & Lewis were "discovered" by Abbott & Costello.)
The comedy team of Bud Abbott & Lou Costello, Martin & Lewis' only rivals as a comedic team in terms of box office popularity, had debuted on the list in 1941, the first of four consecutive years in the Top Ten, and were #1 in 1942. They also made the list in 1948, '49 & '50, seven times in total, one more than Martin & Lewis. However, by the early '50s, they definitely were suffering from over-exposure. Their career went into eclipse, as Martin & Lewis became America's comic darlings.
The year after being voted onto the money makers list by theater owners, Martin & Lewis duplicated Abbott & Costello's distinction by being named the #1 Box Office attraction in America. For the next four years, they were ranked #2 two straight years, then #7 and #6. In 1957, Jerry Lewis as a solo act cracked the Top 10 at #9 and was #3 the following year, his best showing without Dino.
Here is links to an excellent series on the Dean Martin-Jerry Lewis crack up, featured on Michael J. Hayde's blog BETTER LIVING THROUGH TELEVISION.
Aside from My Friend Irma & it's sequel, My Friend Irma Goes West (1950), Martin & Lewis appeared in 15 films from 1950 to 1956:
At War with the Army (1950)
That's My Boy (1951)
Sailor Beware (1952)
Jumping Jacks (1952)
The Stooge (1952)
Scared Stiff (1953)
The Caddy (1953)
Money from Home (1953)
Living It Up (1954)
3 Ring Circus (1954)
You're Never Too Young (1955)
Artists and Models (1955)
Pardners (1956)
Hollywood or Bust (1956)

Instructions for Entity Annual Report (Form E-1)
(Form E-1 located at bottom of page)
Nongovernmental organizations (entities) receiving financial assistance from governmental sources in the form of grants, subsidies or contributions, are required by Indiana Code (IC) 5-11-1-4 to file an Entity Annual Report (Form E-1) with the State Board of Accounts.
Receipt of the funding referred to above subjects your organization to State audit requirements discussed in IC 5-11-1-9. The information you report on the Entity Annual Report enables us to assist you in correctly determining your auditing and reporting requirements. Therefore, it is extremely important that you exercise care in the preparation of this report.
You should report as "government funds" all cash received from any state or local government. These may be in the form of grants, contracts, subsidies, contributions, reimbursements, loans or possibly other agreements. "Government funds" may include Federal funds if the Federal funds go to state or local government first and then are subgranted to your entity. Federal funds received directly from a Federal agency should not be reported as "government funds" on this report. Also, non-Federal funding arrangements that are considered "purchase of service" agreements and not "financial assistance" should not be reported as "government funds" on this report. However, both should be included in your entity's total disbursements (Line 3).
"Purchase of Service" agreements are those where a government agency reimburses you based on specified "per diem" or "per unit" rate for services actually provided. Please note that contracts with a government unit to provide services for a flat fee or contract amount are not considered "purchase of service" agreements and, therefore should be reported.
Since the purpose of the Entity Annual Report is to determine the audit requirements placed on your entity by IC 5-11-1-9 it is important that you report "government funds" in accordance with the preceding paragraphs. Failure to properly report "government funds" could result in a violation of IC 5-11-1-9 and possibly other statutes.
This report is used to determine your STATE audit and reporting requirements. Your entity may be subject to other audit and reporting requirements (specifically Federal OMB Circular A-133 or other contractual agreements with the grantor agency). Please contact the grantor agencies for help in determining your entity's overall audit and reporting requirements. If your entity receives both direct Federal awards and state or local funds, we recommend audit arrangements to meet both requirements.
If your organization receives federal funds, please note that the threshold requiring an audit under OMB Circular A-133 has increased significantly for fiscal years ending after December 31, 2003. It is possible that an organization exempt from audit under OMB Circular A-133, will still need to have an audit done under IC 5-11-1-9. In these instances an audit done in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards (GAAS), rather than generally accepted government auditing standards (GAGAS), will suffice, if this is acceptable with your funding agencies.
Shortly after the date you file the Entity Annual Report, you will be notified if an organization-wide audit is required, or if you qualify for a waiver of the State requirements. If you qualify for a waiver, a tentative waiver letter will be sent and you must supply us with financial information supporting the amounts reported on the Entity Annual Report. If you have qualified for a waiver in the prior year and believe you will qualify in the current year, you may send the supporting documentation at the time of sending your Entity Annual Report. If in fact you do qualify for a waiver, a final letter will be sent, completing the process. All organizations qualifying for a waiver will be processed as such.
Please make any name or address changes directly on this form. Mail to: Indiana State Board of Accounts, 302 West Washington Street, Room E418, Indianapolis, IN 46204, within 60 days after the close of your entity's accounting year end. If you have a name or address change between reporting periods, please contact our office.
The Entity Annual Report should not be confused with the Secretary of State's Business Entity Report. This is a separate form that is required to be filed by all corporations with the Secretary of State's Office. The Business Entity Report has a filing fee, typically $10 for not-for-profit corporations, which should also be sent to the Secretary of State's Office. Any questions concerning the Business Entity Report should be addressed to the Secretary of State's Office at (317)232-6576.
If you need assistance in filing your Entity Annual Report, please contact Sherry Parton, Supervisor for Non-Governmental Entities, at (317) 232-2525.

Our Vision: For Palo Alto public schools where all children thrive emotionally, socially, and academically.
We are a group of Palo Alto parents, students, former students and community members advocating changes to PAUSD policies to reduce academic stress and improve the emotional and mental health of our students. We are concerned about rising rates of depression and anxiety among our student population. Many of us have had that concern for many years as the result of our experiences, or those of our friends, with PAUSD. Others of us came to that concern as a result of the highly publicized suicide cluster afflicting our community in 2009-11.
We reject the false choice between lowering stress and high achievement. We believe that lower stress and achievement go hand in hand. Think about it. Do you do your best work in a stressed-out pressure cooker? Of course not. Neither do our kids. Join us. Together we can make Palo Alto a national model for stress reduction and a return to sanity in secondary education.
Our goals include advocating for the district to implement Section P-8 of the Project Safety Net plan, developed jointly by PAUSD, the City of Palo Alto and various community organizations. P-8, entitled "Supportive School Environment" calls for a focused effort to "study, discuss, and implement" changes to improve student emotional and mental health through measures such as "finals prior to winter break, revised test and project calendars, revised homework policies addressing purpose and volume, academic integrity concerns, tutorials and advisories, and social and emotional skill development." P-8 also calls for PAUSD to "apply positive strategies across all schools in the district. This would allow for a common language, economies of scale, cross training and sharing of what works."
In part as a result of our efforts in the spring and summer of 2011, the PAUSD school board adopted several focused goals that are in line with P-8, including:
- Formulating and adopting a Board policy on the appropriate content and quantity of homework through the grades
- Creating a policy to prevent overlapping project and test scheduling for our kids
- Investigating why we have different counseling systems at each of the two high schools, with the goal of improving counseling for our students
In line with P-8, we are working toward the implementation of an advisory counseling system at Gunn. An advisory system employs teachers to meet regularly with students to help with scheduling, academic issues in classes, and general support. Students gain a caring adult on campus with whom they have regular contact. Counselors are freed to provide more specialized support, including psychological support. Paly has an advisory counseling system. District surveys have consistently shown, over a period of years and a variety of measures, that parents and students at Gunn are twice as dissatisfied with counseling as parents and students at Paly. The most recent survey, released in March 2012, told the same story: Paly exceeded Gunn by 5 or more percentage points on 95 of the 125 measures of effectiveness on which the two high schools could be compared. Gunn exceeded Paly by a similar margin on just 6. Implementing an advisory counseling system at Gunn would immediately improve the quality of counseling and increase student connectedness. See our counseling and guidance page for more information on this issue.

Last week we were informed of the dictionary's (and of course Wikipedia's) definition of what a "Muscle Car" is, so this week we will attempt to discover where the term, "Muscle Car", actually originated from! Now, let me tell you, as I started looking into this seemingly simple task, I soon realized this "moniker" seems to be a huge bone of contention within the industry and is a serious enough topic, that could incite a WAR (or would that be a "Police Action") or at the very least, generate one of the most EPIC discussionary (yes, that is evidently a "word", which is used in the blogging world! I "Googled" it!) battles in automotive history! Just check out this blog I ran across, early on in my search, for the origination of the term "Muscle Car".
Well, you can imagine after reading through all that and then trying to verify all the points/arguments made, I was totally exhausted! Now I was born in 1957 and have been a gear-head and car, motorcycle (and actually, anything even slightly mechanical) freak since I was a baby (so my parents had always told me, even as far back as I was too young to remember, I was tearing things apart, just to see what made em work)! Now, I remember the term "Muscle Car" being used, in at least the late 60's and early 70's by guys my Dad would talk to about cars, dirt-track and street racing, which he and his buddies enjoyed very much. But according to all the seasoned veterans from the above "blog", they say it started in/around 1949 with Oldsmobile and Cadillac installing big-displacement (at the time), overhead-valve, high-compression V8 engines in their "lighter-bodied?" vehicles. And here I thought all cars were big and heavy back then!
So, with that in mind, for this week's story, I chose a beautiful, modified and hot-rodded, 1949 Oldsmobile Rocket "88" "Muscle Car" which is offered by Streetside Classic Cars of Charlotte, NC! Here's what they have to say about this awesome, quick, 1949 Oldsmobile Rocket "88" 2-door, fastback:
"1949 Oldsmobile 88s have that classic look and styling. This 88 has been mildly upgraded with a 1969 Toronado 455ci V8 mated to a 700R4 automatic transmission. The blue with white cove color combination and chrome hub caps give this Olds an absolutely breath taking look. Inside the matching blue and white interior are 4 auxiliary gauges oil psi, volts, water temp and tachometer. Body modifications are 1955 Packard chrome on the doors, 1950 Buick spears on the doors, 1950 Olds one piece windshield and Rocket 88 tail lights. Making this 88 easy to drive are power brakes and power steering. The front clip is out of a late model Camaro and a posi rear end. Coker wide whites roll this Olds down the road in style."
Incidentally, the "88" model was added to the Oldsmobile line-up in 1949 and continued through, as an Oldsmobile model, until 1999! That's over a 50 year, un-interrupted run for the same model name! The "Rocket" logo would be introduced on the trunklid of the 1950 models and was used throughout the rest of the series' run. Not bad for one of the cars that is tagged as being the start of the "Muscle Car" era. A topic that is to be debated much further, I am sure!
Quiz-O-Da-Week: What compact, iconic vehicle first arrived in the USA, from Germany, in 1949?
Answer: the Volkswagen Beetle (a pair of em' to start with) Take care, drive safe, but always have fun and thanks again for reading!

|Defensive Back
|Washington, D.C.
|High School:
|Howard D. Woodson
AT COLORADO: This Season (Fr.-RS)-He enters the fall still as an unknown, as he finally had the chance to practice after coming back from a hip injury but suffered a bruised knee midway through spring drills. He did have three tackles and a pass deflection in two scrimmages he was able to participate in.
2011 (Fr.)-Redshirted; he suffered a stress fracture in one of his hips (on June 1) and underwent rehabilitation throughout the season, so he was limited in what he could do in and around practice.
HIGH SCHOOL-As a senior, he earned SuperPrep All-Mid-Atlantic honors, as the publication ranked him as the No. 36 player in the region and the seventh best cornerback and 11th best overall player from the Washington D.C. area. He was also selected as a first-team Pigskin All-Metro team member at cornerback and was the first-team All-Metro Return Specialist of the Year. ESPN ranked him as the No. 40 cornerback and the No. 7 player from Washington D.C. and was the second cornerback on that list. As a senior, he was in on 55 tackles, five for losses including two quarterback sacks. He had three interceptions, returning two for touchdowns, and 13 passes broken up. He averaged around 20 yards per punt return, including two for touchdowns, one that covered 93 yards. As a junior, he had 30 tackles and 16 pass break-ups with four interceptions, three returned for scores. On offense as a wide receiver, he had 19 receptions for 305 yards and six touchdowns and he returned punts on special teams. His sophomore season, playing primarily on offense, he had 22 receptions for 408 yards and two touchdowns. His top and most memorable game came his senior year: in a 44-12 win over Dunbar for the city championship, he was in on 10 tackles, two for losses with one sack, and had two pass break-ups and what he termed three "monster hits." In a 33-18 loss at Glen Mills in Pennsylvania, he had 12 tackles, one for a loss, and had two pass break-ups in the game where he returned the punt 93 yards for a TD. His best offensive game came his junior year in a 39-7 win over Roosevelt when he caught five passes for 120 yards and two touchdowns. Under coach Greg Fuller, Howard D. Woodson compiled a 29-10 record his three years there (10-3 as a senior, 9-4 as a junior, 10-3 as a sophomore) and won the Washington D.C. City Championship all three years.
ACADEMICS-He is majoring in Communication and is also interested in obtaining his Entrepreneur Certificate. He was a member of the National Honor Society in high school, as he maintained above a 3.5 grade point average.
PERSONAL-He was born June 11, 1992 in Washington, D.C. His hobbies include acting and modeling. First cousin is Thomas Robinson (All-America basketball player as a junior at Kansas in 2012) and Don Hursey (a former defensive back at Texas Tech). He has auditioned for a few major productions including the HBO original show The Wire and he made a cameo appearance in a friend's music video. He has modeled in a few shows for local photographers in the D.C., Maryland and Virginia area. He frequently visits his old neighborhood to encourage kids to make the right decisions as they grow up. Great sources of inspiration to him are his father, who he lost to prostate cancer in July 2010, and his best friend, who was killed in the same year; his father never told him he was dying and that he was only sick, but in his final weeks and days taught him several invaluable life lessons.

The Vermont Agency of Education and the Vermont Personalized Learning Plan Work Group have developed a series of resources to help schools consider ways in which they can plan for and implement Personalized Learning Plans. These resources will enable educators to work with their community members, parents, educators, and students to create a process and a product that considers the assets of the school and community while remaining focused on the unique qualities that each student brings to the learning process.
The successful implementation of Personalized Learning Plans typically requires revision of existing and the development of new school and district policies. These new and revised organizational and instructional policies can foster common understanding across multiple audiences and stakeholders, secure official support for new practices, promote the sustainability of decisions in the midst of personnel changes, and give purposeful direction to school leaders and educators.
Local policy should outline expectations and provide the support and resources required for successful implementation. Well-designed policies help educators, staff members, students, and parents clearly understand new requirements, while also building in enough flexibility to enable teachers to personalize learning for students. When developing new district and school policies, we strongly encourage a minimalist approach that targets only the most essential components of an effective educational system.
The Vermont Agency of Education belongs to the New England Secondary School Consortium and has collaborated with other New England states to create the High Leverage Policy Framework to assist local school and district policy development. Drawing from the fields of education policy, school redesign, organizational change, leadership development, and program evaluation, the High Leverage Policy Framework is a detailed exploration of education policy from rationale to development to implementation. By taking into account the larger social and political "ecosystem" in which policy is formed, written, and implemented, this tool provides a step-by-step framework to identify and develop effective, high-impact policies. The HLP framework can be found here.
The PLP self-assessment on this site allows for users to respond to a series of questions around local policy. After conducting the self-assessment, school or district personnel may want to engage in a conversation using a series of guiding questions aligned to the steps associated with the self-assesment.
Opportunities and Options: Making Career Preparation Work for Students The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) today released a series of actions states are taking to close the skills gap and make sure more students graduate from high school prepared for successful careers. The recommended actions in the Opportunities and Options: Making Career Preparation Work for Students report, produced by CCSSO's Career Readiness Task Force, seek to elevate career readiness programs in K-12 public schools. - See more at: http://ccsso.org/News_and_Events/Press_Releases/States_Announce_Actions_to_Close_the_Skills_Gap_for_All_Students_.html#sthash.RJ8cvhAF.dpuf
There needs to be unified understanding, support, and buy-in to champion the cause and develop appropriate policy. In addition, this work needs to tke place preK-12, and as such, requires coordination from the classroom to the school board. As the school/district moves ahead with implementation, school board members will be needed to support this effort with the public.
As a board embarks on a review of current policies with an eye toward flexible pathways and Personalized Learning Plans, a thoughtful analysis of current policies will be required. Members will need to determine key leverage points for policies knowing that a school board cannot create policies for all occasions. It is important to remember that no set of policies can predict all future considerations and must be undertaken jointly with cultural changes and understanding.
New policies may be needed—but such policies need to be targeted to specific issues. In general, fewer but more specific policies are more helpful than a host of broader policies.
After the policy committee has had ample time to review and revise policies, the full board will want to consider the changes. This might be an appropriate time for parents and the general public to attend a board meeting to learn about the proposed policies and provide feedback. Upon conclusion, the board may choose to consider the public response when finalizing the language of the policy(ies).
Following proper decorum, the school board will secure final language of policy as it relates to Personalized Learning Plans. The policy will be included in future manuals and available for school and public review at will.

It was easy to make, smells fantastic and tastes good. The tuna is a little dry but that might have been my fault. Doesn't taste too fishy for people who may not like that 'fishy' taste. I wish the sauce had been thicker, maybe add tomato paste?? Overall though I liked it and I especially like the parsley, garlic and lemon zest mixture that you add at the end, really kicks it up a notch!

A 51-year-old Millsboro man was taken into police custody April 26 after he allegedly shoplifted from the Georgetown Wal-Mart.
According to the Georgetown Police Department, Richard Temple allegedly walked through the store and placed several items in Wal-Mart shopping bags. Police said Temple then attempted to return these items for a refund by using an old Wal-Mart receipt that had the same items listed on it.
Police said Temple was released on a criminal summons with a future court date.

It's all about frequency seperation! I was going to try and make some 'clever' analogy between trees..and space...and crowding...it all made a lot more sense in my head.
But anyway.
The 'vanishing guitar' syndrome is almost always because your guitar is trying to occupy the same range of frequencies as one or more other instruments. The top end might be clashing with the cymbals, or the bottom end might be clashing with the bass or kicks. The narrower you can get the band of frequencies the instrument lives in (without sacrificing the tone) the tighter your mix will sound. There aren't any concrete rules as to exact frequencies, as much of it is down to your own taste and the kind of sound you want. But a rough example might be:
|Kicks|Bass|Snare+Guitar|Synths|Cymbals| |----------------------------------------| 20hz 20khz
Imagine a typical 'swept' metal guitar sound (lots of bass and treble, not much mids). It might give the snare plenty of room to breathe, but once you add cymbals and bass to the mix, they'll start fighting for your attention
That's how I tend to look at my mixes anyway. I mean, I don't have exact cut off points for different instruments but if I add a really warm mid-rangey lead sound, the first thing I'll do is kill everything under 100hz with a high pass filter so any backing/rhythm guitars don't get overpowered. Stuff like that. You'll always get a little crossover. Some instruments naturally occupy a wide range of frequencies. But in those cases it's just about careful arrangement and composition.
Also bear in mind that overtones and harmonics and other things will increase the space in a mix an instrument occupies. The body of my bass tone might be in the lower mids, but there's also some additional emphasis placed on the high mids to bring out pick attack. Again, it's just a case of careful planning and writing; knowing when to ease up on the cymbal action, or when one instrument isn't complementing the others.
Other than all of that...best thing to do is find mixes you like, and really train your ear to key into where the engineer has put emphasis within it. By doing that you'll also learn to zero in on offensive frequencies that you can kill altogether within a tone.
I'm waffling now.
Hope it helps even a little! Sorry if I've stated the obvious!

Barbara Walters, who has spent her entire adult life on the small screen entertaining people, will be retiring in May 2014, according to sources close to the veteran ABC News personality.
Walters, 83, is expected to announce her retirement in the new few weeks. She will continue on The View through its next season, to help guide it as it transitions from its current state to whatever it will be when Walters, Joy Behar and Elisabeth Hasselbeck are gone (Behar and Hasselbeck have announced their exits already).
Expect a variety of tributes to Walters during her final year, as she has spent more than 50 years broadcasting and is arguably one of the most iconic figures in television history. The belief is that she will appear on other ABC News programs in addition to the View during her last 13 months on the job.
Her retirement has been expected for some time now, after her health problems this year. She contracted chicken pox earlier this year, which caused her to faint and cut her head open during a nasty fall in January, which hospitalized her.
In 2011, when interviewing President Barack Obama, she made a remark that she planned to retire "next year" which stunned media sources.
At the time, an ABC source said that "Barbara has joked that she is retiring every year since the Clinton administration."
However, it seems the curtain is finally closing for good this time.

Cody Posey
Cody Posey, born on October 9, 1989 in New Mexico, is a convicted murderer who was represented by Jack Thompson in court.
On July 5, 2004 Cody Posey killed his father, Delbert Paul Posey, his stepmother, Tyrone Schmid, and stepsister, Marelia Schmid. He first killed his stepmother, before killing his father and stepsister. Cody dragged the bodies out of the house and loaded them in the bucket of a John-Deere backhoe. Cody admitted he attempted to bury them in a nearby plot of land, but after not being able to break the hard ground, opted to bury them in a shallow grave in a manure pile. After the murders, Cody changed clothes and drove his father's truck to the store for a can of Sprite. He then drove to a friend's house staying there until his arrest.
After his arrest, Cody Posey confessed to the murders and the bodies were recovered. The trial began on January 16, 2006. Cody's defense attorney, Gary Mitchell, never denied that Cody murdered the family - instead he suggested the murder happened as a result of years of abuse and dissociation. On February 7, 2006, Posey was convicted of first degree murder in the death of his stepsister, second degree murder in the death of his stepmother, and voluntary manslaughter in the death of his father. On February 23, 2006, Cody was sentenced by Judge Counts as a juvenile and is to remain in the custody of juvenile authorities until he reaches the age of 21.
On September 25, 2006, Cody was named in a wrongful death lawsuit filed by attorney Jack Thompson on behalf of the surviving Posey relatives. Also named were Grand Theft Auto creator Rockstar Games, publisher Take-Two Interactive and PlayStation 2 manufacturer Sony. The lawsuit alleged Posey was trained by the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City to be more aggressive, and a more effective killer. On December 19, 2007, Jack Thompson's lawsuit against Sony and Take-Two was thrown out by a New Mexico judge. The judge dismissed Jack Thompson's wrongful death suit since neither Sony or Take-Two have offices in New Mexico.

The Gazette
NEW FRANKLIN TWP. — It's never easy going against Manchester's football team, especially on its home field.
A perennial state power within the small-school ranks, the Panthers were too much for Black River to handle in cruising to a 56-13 non-conference win Friday.
A member of the PAC-7 Conference, Manchester has won 19 league titles and has 20 state playoff appearances on its resume. The Panthers easily won last season's game 41-14.
Blessed with a balanced offensive attack, Manchester (3-0) reached the end zone on just its fourth play when quarterback Pavin Parks found wideout Chandler Stahl in the right flat for a 24-yard score.
It was the fist of two touchdown connections for the pair. Parks finished 11-of-17 for 174 yards, while Stahl hauled in four catches for 51 yards.
Black River (1-2) answered with 5:06 left in the first quarter when All-Gazette running back Andrew Vaughn found paydirt on a 69-yard run. The 200-pound senior showed agility and speed by starting right, then cutting back left before going into high gear and outracing Manchester defenders.
"He's one of the best running backs that we've played against in years," 42nd-year Manchester coach Jim France said.
Vaughn finished with a game-high 205 yards on 25 caries for an impressive 8.2-yard average. Unfortunately for the Pirates, he was about their only bright spot on the night.
On Manchester's first play of its ensuing possession, Parks threw a beautiful long ball down the right sideline that hit receiver Aaron Hoxworth (3 catches, 111 yards) in stride for a 65-yard score. After a successful point-after kick, the Panthers led 14-7 midway through the opening quarter.
After softening Black River's defense with the pass, the Panthers went to the ground game, again scoring on the first play when running back Austin Klein (13 carries, 157 yards, 2 TDs) took an off-tackle handoff 79 yards untouched.
"Tonight was the best that we've played offensively this season," France said. "We put the run together with the pass and it made it tough for them. We were also just more physical tonight, and that was the difference."
The Pirates cut the deficit to 21-13 in the second quarter on a 3-yard keep by quarterback Brock Waltz (1-for-6, minus-1 yard, INT). The eight-play, 15-yard scoring drive was set up by an interception by linebacker Pat McIntyre.
It was the last score for Black River, but the Panthers were far from done, answering with two more touchdowns to take a 35-13 halftime lead.
Manchester continued to pour it on in the second half, and the Pirates couldn't get anything going to keep up. Two lost fumbles (5 total) didn't help their cause.
Black River allowed 309 rushing yards, but outside of Vaughn's numbers amassed only 38 yards on 32 carries.
Its one pass completion, for minus-1 yard, didn't happen until the fourth quarter on a screen pass to Vaughn that was snuffed out.
Pirates coach Al Young declined comment.

{Leather sleeve bomber jacket - WeSC; Floral pants - Motel; Velvet booties - Alloy}
Just got through one of the hardest midterm weeks of my life, and now it's spring break baby whooo! Except there's not really anything to whoo about. For instance, I just napped for 3 hours today after already sleeping 13 hours last night.
Anyways, I finally got myself some Motel Jordan jeans because they're kind of a cult classic. Went with a bit of a crazy print. Don't know if it's something I'd wear to school, but I'm definitely wearing them out to the bar tonight. (And it's only Monday! Yay spring break!)

Too often we hear the horror stories of teenage attraction - everything from the provocative Abercrombie & Fitch ads to high school pregnancy. But what happens when one teen discovers a higher form of love?
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered.
That description of love ' from 1 Corinthians in the New Testament ' is often heard at weddings. But many people, especially many of my teenage peers, fail to really understand it.
And for a time, I was no different.
At the beginning of my teenage years, love was irrelevant to me. Girls didn't interest me much. My church life was virtually nonexistent. Neither mattered to me (or so I thought). Most of my time was spent with a group of four guys who have been together since seventh grade.
Now we're sophomores at Strongsville High School. We aren't part of any crowd, falling somewhere between the jocks and the losers. We are often misinterpreted as stoners, even though we have no interest in drugs or alcohol. We play paintball in the woods and hang out on Xbox Live. We also spend a lot of time listening to everything from country to metal, as well as the music my friends and I make in their garage band. I write lyrics and they add the music.
A small group of girls hangs out with us too ' although they usually don't join us for paintball. We watch movies and go bowling together. We also all attend church, which makes my friends different from many other people I could hang out with.
Back when we were in middle school, some of the boys in our group started to date the girls who hung out with us. I stayed on the sidelines as my friends bounced from relationship to relationship as if they were taking new cars for test drives. They spoke of hair color and looks as objective things like a paint job or rims. I thought I knew better. The urge to fit in drove me to enter my first relationship completely unprepared, mentally and spiritually. I often had to reassure myself that our relationship was special, something I now see as a sign that I should have re-examined why we were together.
In fact, we dated for more than a year through eighth and ninth grade, enduring many of the typical jokes and jabs. The comments came from all sides. 'You know you're getting married, get over it,' became a typical line I chose to ignore. Her friends constantly reminded me of how 'cute' we looked together.
Yet, all of the outside commentary ultimately highlighted how little I knew about love. Just because my friends were happy that we were together should not have convinced me that we had a loving relationship. Sadly I was fooled, as it became apparent that our relationship was no different from many other middle or high school relationships, built on an initial physical attraction that often fades rather than matures. None of these relationships was spreading messages of love and kindness to the people involved or to the people around them.
I finally convinced myself that this relationship was not leading either of us in a good direction. I told her it was over. She and her friends took it hard, hounding me for weeks. They apparently thought I was 'taking a break' (a term I still don't understand). But my first relationship ended on my terms.
In the weeks that followed, my friends and I enjoyed the freedom that is lost when a relationship takes over your life. There was more time for paintball, music and just hanging out again.
Meanwhile, I had turned increasingly to the Life Teen program at St. John Neumann in Strongsville for guidance and direction. Every Sunday after 6 p.m. Mass our youth group of 30 to 70 teens meets to have a program led by our Core Team of adults on the week's topics.
I'm not sure why I became so interested in Life Teen at such a pivotal time, but likely my family, especially my older sister, who is also involved in Life Teen, had a large impact. I began to see her growing more content, meeting many new friends and being a much happier person. I think I wanted those changes in my life as well. In the days after the breakup, I attended a summer retreat at the campus of the Franciscan University of Steubenville, which changed my outlook on life and love.
Gene Monterastelli and Brad Farmer travel the country as an evangelical group called APeX. They visit parishes and retreat centers spreading their spiritual message through juggling, entertainment and their own brand of humor. They talked to us about life, love and the treatment of women.
By getting to know God in a new way ' a personal way ' I began to see things about love and myself that had never been apparent. From their message, I began to understand that love is not a feeling, but a gift from God. Every person in my life is there for a reason, they said, and must be treated with respect. I began to see that love isn't what you want it to be. It's not easy or simple and you can't buy it with your mom's credit card.
So many in my generation have been convinced by the media, advertising and Hollywood that love is exactly what it isn't, that love is cheap, opportunistic and temporary. For the first time, I felt I could see it for what it was and take a step back. Giving everything you have to someone else is never easy. But that is what love is.
They also gave me the courage to trust in my instincts. Before their talk, I had never trusted myself with important feelings, always ignoring them if it was easier. They told me that God was always there with me and that my instincts at important times were the best things I could use to find my way.
Pray about love, they encouraged, and follow the answers. Not until I share my gifts with someone else will I realize the good that I can do. Love is a devotion to a person that doesn't disappear after the first night apart. True love is always there.
These revelations reshaped my outlook, my life and the way I share my love. I am much more comfortable with who I am and what I believe. They opened my eyes to possibilities that I otherwise would have dismissed ' and things have fallen into place in many unexpected ways.
Although I wasn't searching for a relationship, I began noticing different things about the girls in my life. Acts of patience and kindness that had never been particularly important to me before jumped out at me, making me think about what I really thought I could love in another person.
I never would have thought that alphabetical seating in second and third period at high school could lead to a growing friendship with an acquaintance from church. (Maybe school does have a purpose after all.)
In my current relationship, outward signs are unnecessary. The days of walking through the halls tied to a girl's arm are long gone for me. In fact, we talk more outside school than we do in school, so it took weeks for all but one of my closest friends to see the subtle smiles. I've learned that a smile while passing in the hallways says more about us than we ever see in the Siamese twin relationships of the ever-changing couples that pass us every day.
Even though my current relationship is still young, I know it will continue to grow through the grace of God. When I see her, as well as all of the people in my world, as gifts from God, love becomes all the more powerful in the way I live my life.

Reviewed by: Adam Dechanel
Zod, Ursa and Non are free... oddly however the New Kryptonians subdue him and stand at Zod's side... Alura was telling the truth - Zod is head of the Kryptonian army and pardoned for his sins.
Ursa shifts suspicion in Superman's direction, pointing out that since he started sniffing around the bottled cities Brainiac's ship have vanished. They had paid for their crimes - more so than any Earth justice system have sentenced them. Perhaps Superman was the one here to cause problems?
Superman is taken aback and swears he did not steal the ship of cities and is even more surprised when Alura softens. Looking around he sees the distrust in his people and offers to leave, but only after a few questions and Alura grants him that.
He asks about Kara, and Alura is short with an answer. He than asks about his son Chris to which Zod points out Lor-Zod is none of his concern any longer.
Alura points out though he may see animosity, every single one of the New Kryptonians know they owe their very lives to him, and she hopes one day he'll renounce Earth and return to his family and reclaim his birthright.
Superman takes one last look around and agrees to ponder the offer to stay. Even Zod points out that though once upon a time he would have crushed Superman in a heartbeat, he too hopes what is left of Krypton can be whole once more. Ursa shrugs of the sentimentality and points out they still have a theft to deal with - if it wasn't the son of Jor-El - who was it?
Lex and Superwoman present General Lane with a gift - Brainiac's ship! In its new home... in bunker 7734.
7734 is on Jimmy Olsen's mind too, he cant crack the code of this impossible clue. Enter Steve Lombard and his larger than life abrasive personality. He grins that the code is a stupid pocket calculator gimmick that every child the world over knows.
Seeing Jimmy utterly bewildered, Steve cracks the code 7734 is HELL.
Elsewhere Lois and Clark have a heart to heart and head to the Fortress of Solitude just missing a news broadcast. Other than Superman, all Kryptonians are now banned from Earth! When Nightwing and Flamebird hear this they realize time is against their mission.
Meanwhile Clark is showing Lois around the Fortress pointing out it is a 'perfect' shrine, infallible and ultimately a rose-tinted idealized reflection of real life. Clark talks of his suspicions and despite Lois interjecting that Zod was pardoned, Clark still believes Zod is evil and plotting something...
Before they can discuss it more Mon-El calls for help through a Phantom Zone portal.
Mon begs for Superman to release him from the Zone... as it's somehow being shut down killing off all its residents. Even knowing he will die from lead poisoning he begs to spend his last living minutes in the arms of his brother. Superman wrestles with assisting Mon-El's suicide or allowing him to be murdered... ultimately he chooses to pull Mon out of the Zone and is able to do so with milliseconds to spare.
Echoing his father's death Superman holds his dying brother...
To Be Continued...
BACK-UP STORY: Origins and Omens - "The Guardian"
Writer: James Robinson
Penciller: Renato Guedes
Inker: Jose Wilson Magalhaes
Continuing from Adventure Comics #0, Scar continues to read from the Black Book and sees someone relevant to the future... Jim Harper, The Guardian. Scar recounts his origin while at the same time Jim and the duty SciPol are mustering ready for a mission.
It's Winslow Schott's birthday and he always gives Metropolis a 'present' of some kind and Guardian wants them ready for action.
As it turns out Jim was right and a rampaging android bear smashes through the city causing untold damage. The SciPol are successful in saving the day and curiously it sets Jim also to recount his origins. Scar and Jim's thoughts converge on Gwen Harper.
Suddenly omens of the future appear before Scar.
A meeting with legionnaires... joining forces with Flamebird and Nightwing... the destruction of SciPol... and the death of Gwen...
And because Scar sees it so, it WILL happen unless something changes...
Story - 4: A lot of character driven writing this issue, all extremely thought provoking. I know a lot of you aren't really sold on 'Non Johns' books, several critics included, but James Robinson has added a LOT more depth to the New Krypton story that would otherwise be overlooked. I have nothing against sheeple following a particular writer but a lot of the storytelling is being overshadowed by the overall 'event' that they keep forcing on us.
See I can be controversial too, I mean we're not learning anything really are we? We followed Grant Morrison into the drug induced Final Crisis just because All Star Superman was quirky. Before the wolves dash for my jugular - we also followed Kurt Busiek into Trinity... nuff said.
The feasibility of Clark leaving Lois to expose Zod and find his son is clearly established and makes a lot of sense rather than the vague press release we were served a few months ago about Superman vacating his titles. It feels natural that the investigative journalist in this talented journalist would drive him to reveal the truth. I'm also glad Lois seems to encourage him - I'd rather she didn't go all 'Peter Parker' on a slippery slope to misery.
The theft of Brainiac's ship could have been played up more by Superwoman and Lex in their blink and you'll miss it cameo though I'm guessing the 'Who Is Superwoman' storyline will explore that more.
I'm intrigued by Jimmy's cameo also, I really want to see what he does with 7734 and if he'll have a bigger role to play.
I'm curious to find out who shut down the Zone and how they did it, it was my understanding it was a place... not a 'thing' that could be activated and deactivated... And that leads into the end of Clark's half brother; the rescue/death sentence of Mon-El was heart wrenching... kill him or let him be killed... given what he just had to go through with Pa, I couldn't begin to imagine being put in the euthanasia position.
I'm wondering when Mon is temporarily cured - I say when though I'm not sure he'll make it to the current Legion now their future is in the balance... as Mon looks like Clark - will he become Clark in his absence? The awkwardness and dorky behavior worked for Matrix once upon a time... so I could see Mon masquerading...
To end this review I'd like to state that as a comic reader I DID NOT appreciate the in-story advertisements. That was just absolutely disgusting on DC's part and a slap in the face to the creative team let alone the reader.
I knocked a point off for that.
Art - 3: Rollercoaster art is never fun to look at and the way the stylistics changed throughout made it hard to concentrate. The character designs seemed uncomfortable and some of the close ups to convey emotion lost that impact because of this. The art didn't seem to suit the book or the story...
Back-Up Story - 3: I hate that the foreseeable future has already been 'written'. It's like enforcing a spoiler upon us and that's a shame because if it comes to pass it spoils the Guardian character or at least the enjoyment of his future storylines. I only hope this is a glimpse into 'possible' futures in the time line - it does make Adventure Comics very enticing to me I'll admit, but it also leaves me a little sad that Guardian's character is destined for eternal doom and gloom.
Back-Up Art - 4: Now this hit the mark. When you have a giant teddy attacking a city and you can make it look like a credible threat rather than an escapee from the Super Friends comic then you know you've got something there. Guardian looks majestic shield surfing across the skyline.
Cover Art - 3: Aaron Lopresti serves up a 'run of the mill' cover. His work over in Wonder Woman was nothing short of spectacular and after reading the interior this just doesn't register on the 'holy crap!' scale. But on initial appearance anything is better than the yawnfest the painted covers have been this past year.

I was reading the an article which made the following statement:
since $g$ is a continuous function which is bounded from below by a positive number, it has a continuous inverse?
The only other relevant information about $g$ is that it is a function from a compact set to $\mathbb{R}$, but that is used in the statement that is attains its minimum. My question is:
Why exactly can one conclude $g$ has a continuous inverse?

You need a healthy balanced diet to ensure that your body gets all the nutrients it requires to support itself and fight off diseases. A balanced diet will regulate your, heart and blood circulation, aid your digestive system, regenerate skin and bones, and build muscle mass. Apart from a well balanced diet, a sufficient intake of fluids is also essential to flush out harmful toxins from your body.
Diet food chart. While following a balanced diet is important, what you eat and how much you consume is also an important part of your dietary habits. A diet food chart can help you understand your dietary needs and help to plan a daily menu.
Your diet chart must illustrate the various foods you can consume based on the different food groups such as proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. A balanced diet food chart will also provide information on micronutrients such as minerals, vitamins and fiber.
A diet food chart is particularly beneficial for individuals on a weight loss diet. For instance, a weight loss food chart may recommend consumption of more proteins to build muscle. At the same time, it may require a lower consumption of foods from other food categories such as fat and carbohydrates. You may even have a specific weight loss food chart that monitors your salt intake, sweets intake, and so on. For individuals suffering from diabetes, a personalized diet food chart may recommend avoiding certain fruits that are high in their sugar content. For individuals suffering from digestive disorders, a high fiber diet may be recommended depending on their condition.
A personalized diet food chart may also help individuals who suffer from lifestyle diseases such as high blood pressure and other cardio vascular diseases. Your doctor may recommend certain changes in your diet food chart if you suffer from any medical conditions that require specific dietary guidelines.
Weight loss food menu. A diet chart for weight loss recommends the standard measure for consumption of foods from within each food group. However, you can use these guidelines to formulate a weight loss food menu. Ask your doctor or dietician to help you plan your meals with the specific aim of weight loss. A customized weight loss food menu will allow you to pencil in meals that are fulfilling and to your taste. This way you can plan your calorie intake in a systematic way and even distribute these calories across various meals. With the help of regular exercise and a weight loss food menu, you can easily lose the extra weight.
Balanced diet food chart. The standard balanced diet food chart is based on a 2000-calorie diet. For individuals on a weight loss diet chart, these measures may differ. Talk to your doctor or dietician about your individual calorie needs and accordingly formulate a diet food chart. Include plenty of fruits and vegetables. These provide you with carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins without the fall out of fats. Whole grains, oatmeal, barley provide fiber to aid digestion and increase metabolism. Lean meats, poultry, seafood, and egg whites provide both proteins and healthy fats. Limit the intake of salt and saturated fats such as palm oil, butter, margarine, and so on. Switch to mono saturated seed oils and extra virgin olive oil to reap heart healthy benefits.
Make variety the focus of your weight loss food menu to ensure that you do not get bored of the foods you consume. However, before you embark on any diet consult your doctor. Make sure that a particular diet will not cause or harm or worsen an existing medical condition. Research your diet food chart and make sure it provides you with healthy nutrition. Crash diets and fad diets may claim quicker results, but leave you feeling exhausted, or worse, ill.
Health Eating with Diet Food Chart
The nutrition that you get from food drink is the very basis of your health. Whenever you choose a meal for your body it plays a very important role either in a positive manner or negative manner and impacts your health greatly. The type of food that intake in and quality of your food also determines the quality of your life and also the length. Most ailments today are the result of poor nutrition or malnourishment. Diseases such as heart disorders, hypertension, some types of cancers, diabetes etc. are often linked to the kind of food one eats. Hence a majority of these diseases can be kept at bay by being aware of the kind of nutrition one must take. All meals must be based on a balanced diet with the correct proportions of necessary nutrients. Too much or too little of any substance can often cause harm and bring in diseases. Your daily diet food chart should contain the right proportions of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and fiber. According to the world health organization, complex carbohydrates should contribute to at least fifty percent of the calories in the diet, while fats or fatty acids should be not more than 35 percent while the rest 15 percent should comprise protein. In order to obtain the necessary 50% of carbohydrates, you should have a good quantity of brown rice, whole wheat breads, potatoes etc. in almost all major meals clothes and vegetables should also occupy a substantial portion on your plate. Small amounts of low or moderate fat routine like lean meat, different types of seafood, lean chicken etc. should also be included in the meal. Try to keep high calorie proteins or high fatty substances such as whole milk dairy products to a minimum. The amount of calories that you consume is also dependent on your height, your weight, your age and sex and also your current status on physical activity and nutrition. Try to maintain a diet chart and an activity schedule with the health of a nutritionist or dietician if you feel the need to maintain a daily diet.

olanzapine/fluoxetine - oral, Symbyax
GENERIC NAME: OLANZAPINE/FLUOXETINE - ORAL (oh-LAN-za-peen/floo-OX-e-teen)
BRAND NAME(S): Symbyax
Warning | Medication Uses | How To Use | Side Effects | Precautions | Drug Interactions | Overdose | Notes | Missed Dose | Storage
WARNING: Antidepressant medications are used to treat a variety of conditions, including depression and other mental/mood disorders. These medications can help prevent suicidal thoughts/attempts and provide other important benefits. However, studies have shown that a small number of people (especially people younger than 25) who take antidepressants for any condition may experience worsening depression, other mental/mood symptoms, or suicidal thoughts/attempts. Therefore, it is very important to talk with the doctor about the risks and benefits of antidepressant medication (especially for people younger than 25), even if treatment is not for a mental/mood condition.
Tell the doctor immediately if you notice worsening depression/other psychiatric conditions, unusual behavior changes (including possible suicidal thoughts/attempts), or other mental/mood changes (including new/worsening anxiety, panic attacks, trouble sleeping, irritability, hostile/angry feelings, impulsive actions, severe restlessness, very rapid speech). Be especially watchful for these symptoms when a new antidepressant is started or when the dose is changed.
There may be a slightly increased risk of serious, possibly fatal side effects (such as stroke, heart failure, fast/irregular heartbeat, pneumonia) when this medication is used by older adults with dementia. This medication is not approved for the treatment of dementia-related behavior problems. Discuss the risks and benefits of this medication, as well as other effective and possibly safer treatments for dementia-related behavior problems, with the doctor.

The discovery of common genetic patterns in different system vascular diseases may provide important insights into the pathogenesis of these severe medical conditions. Recently, the coincidence of mutations in ACTA2 (vascular smooth muscle cell specific isoform of α-actin) in families with thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD) and Moyamoya disease (MMD) was reported in patients of Northern European descent and a positive family history for TAAD and MMD. In this study, we analyzed the nine exons of the ACTA2 gene in central European patients with non-familial MMD, aiming to replicate previously described genetic findings and possibly identify further mutations. DNA sequencing of the nine exons and flanking intronic regions of ACTA2 was performed in 39 MMD patients with no family history for MMD or TAAD and 68 healthy controls of central European descent with custom made primers. One new mutation (R179H, heterozygous) in exon 6 of ACTA2 was found in one patient with MMD. We were not able to detect other previously described mutations. In contrast to a previous report, we did not identify significant sequence variations in ACTA2. Further combined analysis of ACTA2 and other, possibly causative, genes in larger cohorts of MMD and other vascular diseases may identify possible common disease-causing mechanisms.

In the first year of life, children in the United States are required by law to have vaccinations. When children start school, parents are required by law to continue vaccinating their kids. Exceptions are made for those who fall under certain religious categories. What are these vaccinations truly good for? Are they helping children, or causing more harm than good?
According to a report by Natural News, vaccinated children have up to 500% more occurrences of disease and allergies than those who are not vaccinated. Studies are proving that there has been a rise in cases of diseases such as autism and it is believed to be directly linked to vaccines.
The vaccine controversy has heated up over the last several years. Scientists are scrambling for federal funding for research, to give parents answers to looming questions. In the days of the early 20th century, vaccines helped to prevent the spread of diseases such as polio and the measles. In 2012, these diseases very seldom occur in children, thus eliminating the need for those same vaccines. Today, more updated vaccines exist for illnesses such as HPV, Hepatitis, Pertussis, MMR and Rotavirus.
Controversy surrounding the preservative known as Thimerosal raised the question as to whether it played a role in childhood autism. Thimerosal is a preservative used for many years to keep vaccines fresh prior to being administered to patients. The Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control answered with a resounding "no." According to both federal organizations, there is no direct link between Thimerosal and childhood autism.
Other studies conducted by researchers and not picked up by mainstream media, show different results. One such study took place in 1992 in New Zealand. Comparisons were made between families who had vaccinated children and those who were not vaccinated. The results were astounding, proving that unvaccinated children had fewer cases of common diseases and ailments suffered by vaccinated children.

Giving your feet a treat: how to maintain the glamour while ditching the heels
Whether you're off to a fancy formal occasion or going out for a night with the girls, many women tend to reach for their high heels to add a final flourish to an outfit. While we love the illusion of longer legs and the confidence that comes with putting on a pair of heels, podiatrists agree that they are not the best choice for your feet or posture.
Flats have recently made a comeback, with actress Keira Knightley choosing to pair a prom-style dress with nude ballet shoes for her wedding to James Righton in Provence. If you're looking to get in on the trend, are tall enough to do without or simply want to give your feet a break from blisters and bunions, below are a few tips on achieving a glamorous look without heels.
Choose your shoes
Just because stilettos are out don't limit yourself to trainers – there's a wide range of Clarks women's shoes so fill your wardrobe with boots, ballet slippers and sandals. Get the fab factor from flats by picking out pairs with interesting patterns, textures and details – think bows, sequins, flowers or even skulls to make them really stand out. Achieve the illusion of longer legs that comes with wearing heels by opting for nude tones.
Open toe shoes with gemstones add oomph to any outfit, whether you team them with wide-leg trousers or structured miniskirts for daytime formal events, or with a patterned dress for a night out. Gold or silver sandals give a polished but neutral look to your party outfit while silver metallic flats with a thin matching ankle strap can give the illusion of heeled shoes. If you can't face a completely flat sole, opt for a very slight heel to help with your posture and provide arch support.
Fit your flats to your wardrobe
With a bit of clever dressing it won't matter that you're not wearing heels. Find flats with the right cut for your outfit to avoid a mismatched look. Examine where the shoe cuts across your foot at the front (known as the vamp) and compare it with your hemline. Shoes with a low vamp that finishes near the toes are better for skirts or dresses that are knee length or longer, as this shape elongates the legs and makes you look taller to compensate for the extra fabric. Skirts shorter than the knee and long trousers work well with either high or low vamps, while cropped styles need shoes cut close to the toes.
Shoes for your shape
Low vamp shoes are typically the best bet for ladies with shorter legs, with the ballet flat being a perfect all-purpose leg-lengthening style. The intricate straps on gladiator flats can cover too much of your leg and make you look shorter, but they are ideal for taller ladies as they add an interesting detail without the extra height.
When it comes to boots, knee high designs are flattering for those with long legs while ankle boots suit shorter ladies and work well with everything from shorts and miniskirts to long and flowing trousers or mid-length skirts.
By considering the shape, design and cut of your flats you can say goodbye to painful heels without sacrificing style and elegance.

This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club.
Edinson Cavani has agreed to talk with Premier League giants Arsenal and Liverpool over a possible transfer, according to the Napoli star's agent.
The Uruguayan's agent Claudio Annelucci says the 25-year-old hitman dreams of playing in England and hinted at a possible move.
Cavani, 25, is one of the most sought after strikers in the world and is the current top goal scorer in Serie A.
Annelucci said: "Liverpool and Arsenal are the first clubs Cavani has agreed to talk to.
"It is no secret that Cavani wants to play in England; it is one of his biggest dreams."
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been promised a hefty transfer kitty after the Gunners signed a new £150 million sponsorship deal with airline Emirates.
Whereas Cavani would prove a great acquisition for Brendan Rodgers who has become reliant on Liverpool striker Luis Suarez.
Cavani has an impressive scoring record, bagging 57 goals in 81 appearances since joining Napoli in 2010.

At the height of summer, when the markets are filled with Technicolor produce, pick out a plump purple eggplant and a few heirloom tomatos and make this sumptuous variation on ratatouille. This dish is simpler than the labor-intensive vegetable stew, but is still rich with roasted vegetables and herbs.
When shopping for eggplants, choose plump, glossy fruits without marks. The cap should be green, not dry and curled. A perfectly ripe eggplant will spring back when gently pressed. Eggplant may have a bitter taste, so begin this dish about an hour ahead to allow time to salt the fruit and draw out the bitterness.
This recipe is adapted from Francis Lam's Let-My-Eggplant-Go-Free! Sauce
Eggplant and Tomato Spaghetti
Serves 3 generous portions
1 pound eggplant, peeled and cut into ½ inch dice
1 tablespoon salt
3 ripe tomatoes
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, smashed
2 sprigs thyme or oregano, chopped
1 cup water
6 leaves basil, chiffonade
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound spaghetti, cooked
1. Place the eggplant cubes in a sieve over a bowl and toss with salt. Let sit for a half hour to draw the bitter juices out of the eggplant. Meanwhile, peel and cut the tomatoes into chunks.
2. In a heavy saucepan such as a Dutch oven, pour in the olive oil and set over low heat. Add the garlic cloves.
3. Wipe any moisture off of the eggplant. When the garlic sizzles, add the eggplant and stir to coat it with oil. Turn up the heat, add the tomato and herbs and stir. When the eggplant and tomato soften, add the liquid, let it come to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low. Cover the pot, leaving an edge exposed for steam to escape.
4. After about 20 minutes, the vegetables should be soft and melting and ready for the pasta. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Serve immediately with the pasta, garnished with additional basil.
