Tune In – ABC World News Tonight
In a story scheduled to air tonight, ABC World News Tonight with Diane Sawyer will feature Autism Speaks Executive Vice President of Programs and Services Peter Bell and his family in a segment on preparing adolescents with autism for life as adults. ABC recently spent the day following Peter and his wife Liz at home as they build a transition program for their 17 -year-old son Tyler, who has autism. The segment will highlight the challenges many families face in preparing their children for adulthood when educational entitlements go away and services are limited and opportunities are few. For more information on what Autism Speaks and other organizations are doing to improve the outlook for adults with autism, please visit Advancing Future for Adults with Autism.

Hope! Jeffrey Stanton represents the hope that exists for kids with autism. Check out a recent story written by Charlotte motor Speedway. Jeffrey not only is racing a race car at Charlotte motor Speedway but even more important he is helping thousands of kids with autism and other serious needs with his charity he founded when he was eight years old. Despite his own struggles with autism he is every bit of the meaning of hope, kindness and caring. http://www.charlottemotorspeedway.com/media/news/576810.html
He needs sponsorship for his racing and also for his charity. He has helped over 6500 kids but knows he can triple that this coming Christmas season with some added help from others.

Thank you for the story on ABC world news. I just stumbled upon it as my son was flipping channels! We are going through the transition stage right now with our 22 year old son. He finished school in June. We are lost! There has to be something meaningful I can find for our son to do.

I couldn't agree with you more Ginger. I also have a 17 year son named Tyler. He wants to work and save for things he wants. I applaude him. Out of my three children, he is my most diligent worker and would make a super employee. He will finish high school but then what? I feel like from here, we are on our own. Alone.

From TV, reading the printed News, searching the Internet, you'd believe that only children born lately have autism.
My wife and I live in Scottsdale AZ and we will be married 46 years this November. We have an 'autistic daughter' who still lives with us. She is now 44 years old. Yes 44!!! A lost autistic generation. With 24 hour/day for 44 years my wife and I ARE autism experts and know first hand what AUTISM IS, and what autism IS NOT!!!
The media has lead people to believe that autism is a "new generational medical problem" that only "children-of-late" have, and of those rarely mentioned adult autistic people, that they are all "mental savants" like Temple Grandin or Dustin Hoffman in the movie "rainman". It would be nice – for a change, – if SOMEONE would write about what we as a society can do for these autistic adults who cannot care for themselves, – many many many thousands, – that soon will have no-one & no-place to go. Autistic adults do not "fit" into 'assisted living' or 'group homes'. Their aging parents or relatives who have cared for them 24/7 for many many many years, – suffer selflessly the most in silence, – every minute of every day.

Well said David! And thanks Autism Speaks for bringing this up on the news. We definately need more awareness. There's a good videooo on youtube called, "Where do Severely-Autistic Adults Go After Special Education Ends?" It talks about this. Also some good posts by journalists in various newspapers over the past few years, talking about how their children are gettting older and there's no places set up to handle autistic adults with challenging behaviors.

Kevin Mastin, a small business owner and environmentalist, is the kind of person we need as a Summit County commissioner. That's because he is:
1. A candidate who has lived in the area most of his life and who knows the county and is committed to its economic and environmental welfare.
2. A candidate who wants to make Summit County's budget fit its revenues and expenses without raising taxes.
3. A candidate who treasures our environment and is sensible about finding ways to sustain economic activity and jobs while protecting the reasons we all live here.
4. A strong communicator and a great marketer and sales person for Summit County's tourist attractions and local businesses. He will talk with his constituents, not down to them.
5. A person with integrity, both intellectual and financial.
6. A hard worker who knows how to be a family person as well as a politician, member of the community and business owner.
7. A learner who's not only gotten a good education but also learns every day and isn't stuck in a single-issue rut.
8. A listener. He listened to my opinions about high building permit fees with respect and understanding. I appreciate that. That he has widespread support shows that he listens to voters and understands the issues facing the county's commissioners.
Please see Kevin's website at www.kevinmastin.com, which shows his talent as a communicator, marketer and long-time service as the president of various county organizations and as a high school coach. You'll be impressed. He's running at large, not just in the 3rd district.

Grant Abstract
Grant Number:
PI Name: HEANEY, ROBERT P.
Project Title: Bone-Sparing by Ca Salts With & Without Extra Phosphorus
Abstract: DESCRIPTION: (provided by applicant) Bone mineral is basically calcium phosphate, and both elements (Ca and P) are required for bone acquisition. Typical Ca intakes in the U.S. are lower than current recommendations, and typical P intakes, higher. Thus attention has been focused mainly on increasing Ca intake, by supplementation and food fortification. The salt most commonly used for these purposes is calcium carbonate. But while the average P intake tends to be adequate or generous, nevertheless substantial proportions of older women ingest less than 70 percent of the RDA for phosphorus on any given day, and hence may be said to be at risk for P deficiency. When these women are given a combination of anabolic therapy and supplemental Ca (as the carbonate), the added Ca may uncover and aggravate the latent P deficiency. This is both because Ca binds phosphate in the gut and reduces its absorption (thereby effectively lowering the P intake still further) and because the induced bone anabolism will itself consume phosphorus, as a result of which absorbed phosphorus may not be sufficient to support the increase in bone mineral mass made possible by this therapy. To test the possible importance and value of supplementing both of the components of bone mineral in support of anabolic therapy of osteoporosis, we propose a 1-year randomized trial, comparing, in two groups of teriparatide-treated postmenopausal osteoporotic women, calcium supplements with and without extra phosphorus (i.e., Ca phosphate vs. Ca carbonate). The principal outcome measure will be change in bone mineral content over the one year of the trial. A secondary outcome is measurement of bone resorption biomarkers so as to assess whether the phosphate salt elevates remodeling relative to the carbonate salt. A finding of superiority of the phosphate-containing Ca supplement would provide evidence leading to a cost-neutral change in Ca sources and a corresponding improvement in osteoporosis co-therapy (and possibly osteoporosis prophylaxis as well).

BERKELEY -- Redrawing City Council district boundaries just got even more complex.
The city has sued itself in order to ask the courts to use the council district boundary lines for the November election that were approved by the City Council in December, but were the subject of a successful referendum the following month.
The city clerk is named as a defendant, but the actual opponents, named as "real parties in interest," are three councilmen -- Kriss Worthington, Jesse Arreguin and Max Anderson -- and several citizens, who sponsored the referendum.
The complaint filed April 3 in Alameda County Superior Court on behalf of the city by the San Leandro law firm Remcho, Johansen & Purcell, says the city clerk believes that, given the referendum, he should use the 2002 council boundaries for the November election.
The lawsuit contends the court, instead, should impose the district boundaries for the November election approved by the December ordinance, even though it was placed on hold after the successful referendum.
It calls for using those boundaries "to avoid violating the United States and California Constitution and the Berkeley City Charter, and ... provide certainty for voters, candidates and elections officials."
Referendum supporters, however, have engaged their own attorneys, who contend the council violated the Brown Act, the state's open meeting law, at its March 11 meeting, where the agenda addressed the issue of placing the referendum before the voters in June. The council approved placement in November, rather than June.
Further, the supporters' attorneys say, the council voted to retain outside legal counsel without placing it on the agenda.
"The council's actions thus violated the Brown Act because the agenda did not identify either placement of the referendum on the November 2014 ballot or the hiring of outside counsel as potential actions by the Council," Richard Miadich of Olson Hagel & Fishburn, said in an April 4 letter to the city attorney, asking for "immediate action to remedy these violations of the law."
Miadich also alleged that the city violated its charter by placing the referendum before the voters in November and not, as the charter mandates, on "the next occurring regular statewide or general or special municipal election," which would have been June.
The $30,000 city contract with Remcho, Johansen & Purcell, dated Feb. 26, 2014, is for "Personal services -- legal advice re Redistricting Ordinance adopted by Council Feb. 25, 2014."
While the contract was dated Feb. 26, the council did not vote to engage outside legal services until two weeks later.
City spokesman Matthai Chakko explained in an email: "Our job is to be prepared and anticipate potential issues. Since these types of cases require a fast pace, the City Attorney retained outside counsel in case the City needed them on short notice."
Contacted for comment, Worthington called signing the contract before the council vote "outrageous and incredible."
"It looks like a political act, not an administrative act," he said. "That is so sad and disappointing that anyone would enter into such a contract before the City Council discussed or voted on it."
On other questions regarding the lawsuit, Chakko declined to comment for this story given "pending litigation," as did James Harrison of Remcho, Johansen & Purcell. Mayor Tom Bates' office referred this newspaper to the city attorney, who did not return requests for comment.
The boundaries for District 7, Worthington's district, are at the heart of the redistricting controversy. The December 2013 ordinance set new council boundaries both to equalize the number of residents in each district and to create one district consolidated around a special interest group -- students.
The debate between the council majority and the three council members supporting the referendum and named in the lawsuit has been principally over whether to include several blocks north of campus within a "student" district.
The December ordinance removes these blocks, where student co-ops traditionally support Worthington, who claims the intent of the approved ordinance is to remove progressives like himself from office.
Worthington said he would like a judge to review a variety of possible council district maps for the November elections.
"If they were going to the judge and said, 'here are all the plans, you pick one,' I would have no problem with that," he said.
Attorneys were set to be in court April 8 to set a schedule for hearing the lawsuit.

If I were vacationing in Washington, D.C., this summer, I'd probably think twice about doing the White House tour.
The president's house is being targeted by terrorists again this weekend (don't say that out loud -- the NSA isn't known for its sense of humor) with the opening of "White House Down."
If it seems like you've heard this before, you have, in "Olympus Has Fallen," which was released earlier this year. Both films feature terrorist attacks against the White House, which is saved by an unlikely lone-wolf hero inside the president's digs. While the hero in "Olympus" was a disgraced Secret Service agent, the presidential savior of "White House Down" is a D.C. police officer who wants to be in the Secret Service.
Obviously, these two need to talk.
This pair of similar films coming out around the same time joins the pantheon of movie twins, including "Turner & Hooch" and "K-9," "Armageddon" and "Deep Impact," "Volcano" and "Dante's Peak," Tombstone" and "Wyatt Earp," "Snow White and the Huntsman" and "Mirror Mirror," and various animated films about penguins that dance and/or surf and lions with issues who escape New York zoos.
Even before "Olympus" was released in March, some of us had already heard this one before. Fourteen years ago, Vince Flynn, who died of cancer last week at 47, wrote a book called "Transfer of Power," which introduced thriller geeks everywhere to Mitch Rapp, the CIA superspy/assassin who became the protagonist of his next 13 books. Funny enough, the plot involved terrorists attacking the White House and only being vulnerable to a single armed superstud on the inside.
These movies owe Flynn big-time.
He died just as CBS Films finally got on track with a Rapp movie, plans for which remain in play, the network told the Huffington Post. Bruce Willis reportedly has signed on to play Rapp's grumpy-but-deadly mentor, Stan Hurley. Flynn said he envisioned Willis in the role as soon as he introduced the Hurley character. Chris Hemsworth is said to be in talks to play Rapp.
Alas, they might be too late. The arrival of conjoined films usually signals the end of a subgenre. It means the market is saturated, ideas are obviously repeating themselves, and filmgoers will start to look in other directions. The evidence is already pretty strong that the thriller/spy movie genre is shriveling on the vine.
The Jason Bourne series -- which inspired me more than a decade ago to start reading Robert Ludlum novels like I was getting paid big bucks to do so -- has gone off-track since Matt Damon stopped playing the lead character. Films featuring Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan character were done in by the casting director who decided to reboot the series with Ben Affleck in the lead. The same thing happened when someone decided Lee Child fans would buy Tom Cruise playing the 6-foot-5 overpowering military policeman Jack Reacher. That series is dead after one movie.
Nelson DeMille could have scored big, had someone decided that his books featuring John Corey -- whose sense of humor makes him the most entertaining bad-ass in the spy thriller world -- would appeal to filmgoers more than "The General's Daughter," which had a plot involving rape and murder that many understandably found distasteful.
So this weekend could be the end of the spy/thriller genre for a while. Thankfully for thriller geeks, good writers are still producing good books for their loyal fan bases. It's just too bad Mitch Rapp couldn't have thwarted those White House terrorists five years ago -- it would have been fun to watch.

Confidence among U.S. home builders rose last month to its highest level in six years, and many believe the housing recovery will strengthen in the next six months.
The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo builder sentiment index rose to 40 in September. That's up from 37 in August and the highest reading since June 2006, just before the housing bubble burst.
Any reading below 50 indicates negative sentiment about the housing market. The index hasn't reached 50 since April 2006, the peak of the housing boom.
A measure of builders' outlook for sales in the next six months rose to 51. That's up from 43 in August and is the highest level since June 2006.
Builders also reported seeing the best sales level since July 2006. And turnout by prospective buyers returned to levels not seen since May 2006.
The median sales price of a new home rose 11.2 percent in August to $256,900. That was the biggest one-month increase on record. Prices have risen 17 percent over the past year and are at the highest level since spring 2007.

Resolving conflicts with Classloaders - Example with Hibernate/Antlr
By Laurent Goldsztejn-Oracle on Feb 15, 2013
The same query working properly under the old environment. At first it might look like an invalid syntax in the query but the issue is really coming from a conflict between parsers clients. The solution is to use prefer-application-packages in weblogic-application.xml (WebLogic Server-specific deployment descriptor extension for the application.xml) to define which package(s) should be loaded from the application and not from the system classloader, example:
The suitable Antlr (Java-based compiler generator client) version should be made available in the application itself, inside WEB-INF/lib - this parser being used by Hibernate. prefer-web-inf-classes must be set to true in weblogic.xml, the default value being false, for classes located in WEB-INF to be loaded in preference to the system classloader.
WLS 10.3.x is shipped with antlr version 2.7.7 (built on Mon Jun 11 12:19:48 EDT 2007 ImplVersion: 2.7.7)
WLS 12c is shipped with antlr version 220.127.116.11 (built on Fri Nov 4 19:42:39 EDT 2011 ImplVersion: 220.127.116.11)
You can find all packages versions in %Home%/modules or simply by running java weblogic.utils.Versions

MOUNTAIN VIEW -- A 38-year-old man was fatally shot Friday night at Shoreline Amphitheatre after a sold-out concert by rapper Wiz Khalifa.
Officers responded about 11:05 p.m. to the concert venue after police received multiple calls reporting that shots had been fired, Mountain View police spokeswoman Shino Tanaka said.
Thevictim suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was taken to a hospital, where he died Saturday morning, Tanaka said. No one else was injured.
"We do not know how the victim was associated with the concert," Tanaka said. "That is part of our ongoing investigation."
The victim's name was still being withheld by police late Saturday. But ABC7 reported that friends and family had identified him as Eric Johnson, of Oakland.
On Twitter, Khalifa, a breakout hip-hop star from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, called the shooting "a senseless tragedy" in a tweet Saturday afternoon.
"Violence is never the answer," Khalifa wrote. "My prayers go out to the victim's family."
Police described the shooting suspect as a black man in his 20s with short hair who is between 5 feet 6 inches and 5 feet 8 inches tall. He was wearing a black shirt, a red baseball cap and possibly white pants, police said. The shooting reportedly happened backstage.
Fremont resident Jamie Cooper, who attended Khalifa's Friday night show, heard the gunshots soon after it ended.
"We heard gunshots right as we were walking out to the parking lot," Cooper said. "We saw police officers running" toward the backstage area.
Police believe the weapon used in the shooting was a black pistol with a large magazine, Tanaka said.
The motive for the shooting remained under investigation Saturday. Police turned to social networks, particularly Twitter, to solicit tips. They asked people to either call police or text information anonymously.
Khalifa played to some 22,000 people Friday night. The performance was part of his ongoing Under the Influence of Music Tour -- a not-so-subtle reference to Khalifa's reportedly prodigious use of marijuana.
In a statement, Live Nation, which organizes events at Shoreline, directed inquiries about the incident to Mountain View police. "We continue to cooperate with authorities in their investigation into last night's isolated incident," the company said Saturday.
The company said that Saturday night's Shoreline concert, featuring Rascal Flats, Sheryl Crow and Gloriana, would go on as scheduled. But the Khalifa concert scheduled for Saturday night in Chula Vista, near San Diego, was canceled and won't be rescheduled "due to an active investigation" of the shooting at Shoreline, Live Nation said in a separate statement. On his Twitter account, Khalifa blamed the cancellation on "a situation out of our control."
Tanaka did not immediately respond when asked if police had questioned Khalifa about the shooting.
Meanwhile, Khalifa's Sunday night concert in Irvine is still on the schedule, said Aaron Siuda, a Live Nation vice president in San Francisco.
Anyone with information, video or photos about the shooting is asked to call police at 650-903-6395 -- or email email@example.com. Anonymous text messages may be sent to 274637 with the code MVTips in the text.
Police are also asking people to use the hashtag #MVPDInfo in their Twitter and Instagram posts about the shooting so that they can examine relevant images and video.

OAKLAND -- Laura Graham's clothing charity "1 Closet, Teen 2 Teen Giving," has clearly become a success story.
To date, the 16-year-old Bishop O'Dowd High School junior has gathered and donated about 7,000 garments, which have helped more than 800 East Bay teens. Graham collects gently used clothing from teens and donates them to less fortunate teens.
"I don't want it to be like a charity," she said. "I want it to be like we are sharing."
Graham's efforts haven't gone unnoticed -- she received a Red Cross Community Service Hero Award and a Jefferson Award in October. The idea for the project came out of a dinner table conversation between Graham and her parents. One of her father's colleagues had just adopted a foster child and Graham was struck by how little the child had.
"Foster kids get nothing, about $224 a year for clothes," she said. "I thought about how I discard my clothes like it's nothing."
Graham shared her idea with a manager at an American Eagle store.
"I asked her what they did with their leftover jeans at the end of the year," Graham said. "She (the manager) motivated me."
Graham began to move her project forward in 2011, during the fall of her sophomore year. She has successfully organized a number of clothing drives in many of the East Bay's more affluent high schools and the clothes she's collected have been donated to local charities such as Lincoln Child Center, Boys and Girls Clubs, Foster Care of Alameda and Contra Costa and Youth Homes in Walnut Creek.
"It's neat to see my clients wearing the clothes," said Cassandre Deleonecheverria, of the Lincoln Child Center in Oakland. "It makes them feel better about themselves."
It also empowers them, points out Deleonecheverria, who works with middle and high school youth.
"It's neat that she is a high school student just like them," she said. "It how them that they can help others."
Graham's headquarters is her former playhouse, although donations occasionally spill into other parts of the house. Graham sorts the donations by type of clothing and size, then compiles boxes for individual teens. One of her biggest challenges is that she sometimes doesn't have the right sizes. She admits to buying clothes to complete boxes.
"I want everyone's box to be equal," she said.
Each box is personalized for the recipient.
"What's unique about Laura is that she wants to know the ages, gender and size of the recipients and she responds quickly." Deleonecheverria said.
"It's important to reach out to teens who may feel like they are alone and nobody cares," said Laura Graham's mother, Sue Graham.
"I want this to be different," said the teenage Graham. "I want this to be teen to teen giving, not an adult giving to a child."
A few months ago, "1 Closet" attained 501C3 nonprofit status which Graham anticipates will open up further opportunities to receive donations, especially from retail establishments.
"I had no idea this would take off," Graham said. "I've learned to be thankful for what I have and that anything is possible. A little effort can go a long way."

In an effort to keep it there - not better, not worse - the Tribes a have applied for federal permission to disallow any more pollutants to float around the immediate atmosphere than already exist as of sometime this month. The goal is Class I "pristine" air, a designation that only the Northern It runs in the family- Cheyenne Reservation in eastern Montana enjoys, along with various national parks and wilderness areas. Class I is the cleanest type of air an area can have under the Clean Air Act of 1970. What you're breathing now (unless there's a cigarette burning close by) is Class II air, what most places in the U.S. have. The move for status quo clean air began over a year ago when the Tribes set up an Air Quality Department to start the long progress of researching the deteriorating air on the reservation. Under supervisor Tom "Bearhead" Swaney, an air quality team began an 18-month research effort that culminated in a 136-page report about the past and present of the Flathead Reservation, paying particular attention, of course, to air pollution and its effects on residents, Indian and non-Indian. Two points that the report makes concern the economic health of the rez and the respiratory health of it residents. Economically, the area's three major sources of income, agriculture (farming), forestry and tourism, depend on clean air. Health-wise, the report finds that while only 16 people out of every 1000 in the general population, on the (Continued next page) Sanchez Wins Lake County Junior Miss No, not Margaret, but younger sister Juanita, a senior at Arlee High School.

SAN JOSE -- West Catholic Athletic League baseball has been a pitching-dominated affair the last two years, ever since composite bats similar to the ones adopted in college baseball were put into use.
But you wouldn't have known it Tuesday at Archbishop Mitty where the Monarchs defeated Serra 14-6 to remain in a three-way tie for first place with St. Francis and Valley Christian.
Angelo Bortolin rocketed a two-run home run over the fence in right-center in the first to give Serra a 2-0 lead. But Mitty got that back and more with an eight-run second. Trent Scharrenberg's two-run single and Luke Rasmussen's two-run double were the big hits in the inning.
Mitty (12-3, 6-2) added three more runs in the third on five two-out singles.
Rasmussen hit an RBI single in the fourth to make the score 12-2. It was the third hit of the game for Rasmussen, who is batting .475 on the season (19 of 40) with 20 RBIs.
"He's a legitimate player in the middle of the order,'' Mitty coach Bill Hutton said. "For three years he didn't have much protection. This year we're a little deeper, plus he's a year older, matured a lot.''
It was still 12-2 in the bottom of the fifth when Brett Foley led off by bunting for a base hit. The next batter, Connor Young, was hit on the first pitch. The home plate umpire immediately ejected Serra coach Craig Gianinno and pitcher Robert Hanson.
"I had just got done talking to the team about keeping it classy,'' Hutton said. "As soon as Brett got to first base he threw up his arms as if to ask, `why did I do that?' Brett apologized to their coach and I apologized to third-base coach Ryan Allgrove. It's just unfortunate their coach got thrown out. This is a pressure cooker, this league. Things boil over.''
This is a three-game week in the WCAL. Both head coaches made liberal use of their bullpen in order to save some top arms for the rest of the week. Serra (9-8, 3-5) has an especially tough week, playing at Valley Christian on Thursday before taking on St. Francis at home on Friday
In other WCAL games, Valley Christian (10-4, 6-2) defeated Bellarmine (11-4, 4-4), 4-3, and St. Francis (11-2, 6-2) beat St. Ignatius (9-7, 4-4), 4-1.

LSU tallied four blocks in the opening set while Brink recoded five of her 10 kills in the first set.
In the second set, the Tigers jumped out to a 10-7 lead before the Islanders rallied back with three straight points, including back-to-back kills by Baresh and Parker to knot the score at 10-10. The Islanders and Tigers went back-and-forth until five straight hitting errors by the Islanders pushed LSU back out front, 17-12.

After a LSU timeout, the Tigers built a four-point cushion on a 3-0 run to make it 22-18. The Islanders and Tigers traded points back-and-forth until LSU capped the match on an Islanders' hitting error to win the set, 25-20.
The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi volleyball team bounced back in the final match of the Rice Invitational I with an exciting five-set victory over UALR to win 3-2 (20-25, 25-21, 22-25, 25-21, 16-14) Saturday evening at Tudor Fieldhouse. The Islanders hit a season-match high .268 and had four players finish in double-figure kills.
Ashley Phelps had a career night with 14 kills and Brianna Brink also tallied a season-high 14 kills to lead the Islanders who matched a season-match high seven blocks.

She hit .556 in the set with six kills while the Islanders hit .483 as a team. Texas A&M - Corpus Christi and the Trojans tied nine times in the set until the Islanders built a 19-15 lead. During the run,Shaquinn Parker and Brink each added a kill. The Islanders stayed out in front the rest of the way with Phelps finishing the set at 25-21 with a kill.
The Islanders gained momentum out of the break to take a 5-0 lead in the third set, but eight kills by the Trojans' Sonja Milanovic and six kills by Edina Begic lifted UALR to a 25-22 third-set victory. The Islanders stayed with the Trojans until a 3-0 run by UALR gave them a 21-18 advantage. Both teams traded points back-and-forth until Milanovic finished the set with a kill and a 25-22 Trojan victory.
Texas A&M - Corpus Christi fought back to secure the next two sets. In the fourth set, the Islanders hit .440 and received solid play by Brink and Phelps. With both teams even at 15-15, Brink slammed down a kill and Baresh followed with an ace to push the Islanders ahead 17-15. After a Trojans' timeout, UALR knotted the score at 18-18 with back-to-back kills. The Islanders then built a 21-18 lead on a pair of kills by Brink and an attacking error by the Trojans. Out of an UALR timeout, both teams traded points back-and-forth until consecutive errors by the Trojans sealed a 25-21 fourth-set victory for the Islanders.
The Islanders carried over their momentum into the final set to propel to a 16-14 victory. Texas A&M - Corpus Christi opened the set with a 4-0 lead and never trailed until a late surge by the Trojans tied the set at 13-13. After an Islanders' attacking error, UALR took their first lead of the set with a 14-13 lead. However, an attacking error by the Trojans knotted the score at 14-14, and the Islanders followed with two straight points to capture the set and the match, 16-14.

Buster Posey, the Giants' old-fashioned baseball star with a go-go new megacontract, looked fulfilled and fidgety all at once Friday.
Fulfilled, because Posey's just-signed nine-year, $167 million deal means that he and his family are financially set for this and many lifetimes.
Fidgety, because the Giants' catcher isn't always fond of camera lights and broad compliments, especially if they're about him.
"It can be a little uncomfortable at times," Posey said with a chuckle moments after the 25-minute news conference to announce the biggest deal ever earned by a Giant. "But it's good. It's obviously a very special day."
This was a landmark day, no doubt -- it's a glorious time in the franchise's history and Posey, only 26, is the player most responsible for it.
That's why he was flanked by CEO Larry Baer, general manager Brian Sabean and other team officials at the podium Friday.
"The organization will be better off each day he's in the uniform," Sabean said of Posey.
And that's why Posey deserved and got the deal he did, which runs through 2021 and can extend through 2022 if the Giants exercise a team option.
"This is, by any measure, the largest and boldest commitment we've ever made to a player," Baer said. "And obviously that's a big deal."
The list of Posey's on-field achievements: Two World Series championships (the first titles in the franchise's San Francisco history) in his two healthy seasons, the National League MVP last season, the NL Rookie of the Year in 2010.
"Our organization really turned on a dime when this fella came to the big leagues," Sabean said, adding that Posey is "a kid on a mission."
And most excruciatingly, the long, affirming comeback from his devastating ankle and leg injury in May 2011.
But there is more to this, of course, because Posey has so much more to him.
In the middle of more manic personalities and less predictable talents, Posey is the serene, exacting, hyper-disciplined epitome of everything the Giants have become and hope to be for years and years.
"He has a great way of finding a calm way about it," pitcher Matt Cain said. "He's able to think through a lot of things and someone we go to for advice. And he's not afraid to ask questions when he has things going on. He's just a smart guy."
Simply, Posey is an old-school captain; his clubhouse leadership is as much about personal responsibility and accountability as it is about talent and personality.
He's the boss, he leads this team by example, and he knows this contract is part of that compact.
"It's not something (the Giants owners) take lightly and not something I take lightly, either," Posey said of the massive financial commitment.
Posey is the Giants' Cal Ripken, Jr., their Derek Jeter, their Lou Gehrig -- all-time great players who played their entire careers on the same team and came to represent the essence of those teams.
This contract is the big step toward Posey as a Giant for eternity, which is where he belongs.
"Ideally, Buster will be wearing a Giants uniform for the entirely of his career," Baer said.
Posey said it has always been a goal of his to find the right franchise and to remain there. That's why the idea of free agency -- and possibly much larger dollars -- in a few years only was a brief thought in his mind.
"Of course it's always in the back of your mind," Posey said after the news conference. "But I felt if the Giants were willing to make this commitment at this point in my career, it was something that I couldn't pass up."
During the news conference, Posey cited the support of Giants fans at AT&T Park.
"I don't see how you can play here and not want to spend your career here," Posey said.
Then Posey let out a little sigh, smiled at his family in the audience, and headed out to catch a ballgame.
That's his job. That's what he does. And that's what he'll do for nine more years, and probably a lot more, probably always in a Giants uniform, just the way it ought to and had to be.

When Can We Expect Economic Data?
The flow of official U.S. economic data, largely halted by the shutdown, should resume once government economists and analysts return to their offices. But many releases will be delayed and others could face technical hurdles that muck up data or lead to outright cancellation.
September employment, retail sales and inflation reports, among others, have been on hold since the shutdown started Oct. 1. Raw data for the next round of reports has not been collected with offices dark, email inboxes filling up and phones going unanswered.
"The primary question will center on the long-delayed payroll employment report and where the [Bureau of Labor Statistics] was when they stopped processing the household and establishment survey data," Mizuho Securities chief economist Steven Ricchiuto said in a note to clients.
Logistical questions also remain unanswered. The two main agencies that produce and release economic reports, the Labor and Commerce departments, release data to the media using a shared "lockup" room. They'll need to coordinate schedules, likely spacing out the data once it's ready for release.
Ready To Go
Some gauges were ready for release or very near that point. The August construction spending report, which was due out Oct. 1, should be ready to go almost immediately after the Commerce Department gets up and running. It likely would have been finished while the agency was still funded on Sept. 30.
Close, But Not Quite There
The Labor and Commerce departments had collected data for the employment report (due out Oct. 4), retail sales (Oct. 11) and the consumer price index (Oct. 16).
When the Labor Department announced Oct. 3 that it would not release the employment report as planned, it did not offer a rescheduled date. What remains unknown is how close analysts in the Bureau of Labor Statistics were to finishing the report and how quickly they could restart their work.
It's a guessing game. Mr. Ricchiuto estimates two or three days for the employment report. TD Securities analyst Millan Mulraine is more skeptical, and said he anticipates a turnaround time of seven to 10 days after the government reopens.
Damaged Forever?
Also unknown is what will happen to October's employment report, currently scheduled for release on Nov. 1.
The Commerce Department's Census Bureau, which collects information for the employment report's household survey, stopped collecting economic data.
Normally, it would have contacted households this week, asking people about their employment status the prior week. Those answers determine the monthly unemployment rate, among other numbers.
Should the survey be conducted much later than mid-October, it could skew the results because people may not remember their status as accurately.
The other half of the employment report, the establishment survey, should be less problematic. It relies on data collected from companies that typically keep records of hiring and firing. The establishment survey shows how many jobs were added, or lost.
The October consumer price index, due out Nov. 15, also may face technical difficulties.
In a normal month, the Labor Department would dispatch data collectors to thousands of retail stores, apartment buildings, doctors' offices and other establishments to obtain prices on about 80,000 items.
With only two weeks left in the month, time would be short and the snapshot narrower.
The Independent Fed
Other reports, like the Federal Reserve's industrial production report, rely on figures from shuttered agencies. The Fed said last week it wouldn't release that data as scheduled on Thursday (Oct. 17).
The central bank, to preserve its independence, isn't subject to the congressional appropriations process. It has continued to release other data and key reports including Wednesday's "beige book" on regional economic activity and minutes from its Federal Open Market Committee meeting last week.
Here is a partial rundown of when official government data was scheduled for release:

Beautifully written piece.
Although I agree with you that fashion is escapism for most people in America, it is not for everyone. I strongly feel that street style is a part of my dharma/karma/spiritual path. There's a very cosmic element to walking randomly around the world seeking beauty in the roaring chaos. I so deeply love meeting new people and brightening their day by honoring them with a photograph. There's all sorts of synchronicity involved with an art like street style hunting.
Street style is my "puja," my meditation on the beauty in the world. It's important to be aware of the ugly/dark/negative energy int he world, but it's even more important to celebrate the light. And if being stylish gives you "the armor to face the realities of every day" (as Bill says), then that's enough justification.
Fashion is one of the defining elements of civilization. All human beings adorn themselves. I've been to Kibera in the slums of Nairobi, which makes Cabrini look like Disneyland. I went with a non-profit group to meet with women who were HIV+/AIDS who make jewelry. Why jewelry? They told me it was to bring beauty into their lives, as well as keep their minds off the fact that they were dying because their husbands (who'd already passed) refused to wear condoms when they cheated with another woman and passed HIV on to them. Another group of HIV+ women traveled around Kibera braiding hair. Why? Because they want people to be beautiful!
Even in the most horrific circumstances, humanity uses visual self-expression - fashion - as a source of strength in the fight for psychological survival. I did my honors thesis on the use of dress and apparel in the Igbo Women's War of 1929, the only all female military uprising in human history. And guess what? Fashion was a central element in their story and these women changed the path of British colonial history by eliminating the despotic male "warrant chief" system.
When you look at the mass-market "it bag," label obsessed fashion culture of industrialized countries, it's easy to forget that fashion is SO MUCH MORE.

I'm at work and read the whole thing in one go. Thank you for this post. Can fashion ever be ok, when in order to survive designers have to suck up to the establishment?

Definition of connate in English:
1 Philosophy (Especially of ideas or principles) existing in a person or thing from birth; innate: are our ethical values connate?
More example sentences
- The fact that compassion is both voluntary and learned differentiates it from other kinds of suffering, which are involuntary and connate.

Example sentences
- Five united stamens are adnate to the top of the pistil, which is made up of five connate carpels.
- In young flowers all the carpels are connate at the base, and each mature mericarp represents a single carpel rather than half a carpel as is the case in Lamiaceae and Boraginaceae.
- Sepals and petals are usually similar in form and free, but the lateral sepals may be connate to different degrees, forming a spur.
3 Geology (Of water) trapped in sedimentary rock during its deposition.
Example sentences
- This water is thought to be associated with condensation from the ventilation system or connate water from the salt itself.
- In addition, he determined that the Na / K ratios of the included fluids were low, suggesting that the minerals were deposited from hydrothermal solutions of meteoric rather than connate origin.
- The origin of the vein-forming fluids - whether magmatic, meteoric, or connate - may also be determined from a study of the oxygen isotopes of the inclusions.
Mid 17th century: from late Latin connatus, past participle of connasci, from con- 'together' + nasci 'be born'.

NSA Harvesting Contact Lists From Gmail, Facebook
Posted October 15th, 2013 @ 8:14am by Ruth Brown, Newser Staff
(NEWSER) – The Washington Post has the latest document leak from Edward Snowden, revealing that the NSA has been collecting hundreds of millions of contact lists from email, social media, and IM accounts around the world—including those of Americans. The agency then uses those lists to uncover and map connections and relationships between with its targets. In one day last year, it harvested 444,743 email address books from Yahoo, 105,068 from Hotmail, 82,857 from Facebook, 33,697 from Gmail and 22,881 from other sources, according to an NSA document. Those are described as typical numbers, which puts the annual total of lists collected at more than 250 million.

When Audrey Gray started gathering pigment from the earth to create her paintings, they reflected her last name - they ended up mostly gray and brown, because she didn't know where to look for variations in color.
But after paying closer attention to the land's coloring on road trips throughout the Southwest, she began to discover red, orange and even green and "cool purple" coloring within the earth. Now, she paints solely with all-natural pigments, which she collects and grinds up mostly from the Four Corners region.
"It's really organic," she said. "It's calming and it's grounding for me to do it, and my hope is it's grounding for people to look at. We don't pay attention to what color the earth is, and then we see a bright green."
While she's at the Tin Shop this month, she'll experiment with adding birds made of mica to her paintings. She also enhances her pieces with sticks and gold leaf.
"Audrey's work is simply beautiful. Her use of organic materials is intriguing," said Jenn Cram, administrator of the Arts District.
Gray earned her degree in fine arts (in painting) from Southwestern University in Texas. She began using natural material toward the end of her education, and then took a break from artwork for a couple years, in order to differentiate her style from that of the professors' expectations.
The natural world drew her in, with its "calmer" tones, as well as its nontoxic qualities (as opposed to commercial paints).
Now two Colorado galleries, one in Canon City and one in Manitou Springs, showcase her work.
March 15, she leads a workshop for kids ages 6 to 11, using the natural paints and mica. She chose the younger folks not only because they're "fun to work with," but also because she believes it's important for kids to have access to creative outlets while they're still young.

With $25 billion in excess pharmaceutical production capacity in China, and much of its production facilities standing idle,1 many Chinese pharmaceutical organizations are beginning to evaluate the strategic value in biopharmaceutical production. Recombinant proteins are considered more technically complex, and the regulatory hurdles for these are higher, compared with other therapeutics, therefore, moving into this area requires a thoughtful approach.
Dr. DC Yu, of Kanghong Biotechnology Co., Ltd., in Chengdu, China, has seen a move among pharmaceutical firms in China to get into the biopharmaceutical field, including the conversion of existing resources or changes to their business directions. Many firms have started working on biologics, approaching it in a number of ways. "A few approaches these companies are taking include building a biologics division, converting existing space into production facility for biologics, and building new facilities specifically for biologics, " said Dr. Yu. Publicly listed companies, in particular, want to add 'sexy' products or capabilities in biotechnology. "A few biotech firms have been recently acquired by pharmaceutical companies,"continued Dr. Yu. "The Gendicine manufacturer (Ad-p53, the first gene therapy product in the world) has been recently acquired by a pharmaceutical company, and Endostar (endostatin, which failed in the US in trials) was recently acquired by Simcere, which was recently listed in NYSE."
China is already an international supplier for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and intermediates, and as domestic consumption increases, China will continue to attract the attention of global pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. As Chinese fine chemical companies increasingly move into more complex areas like biopharmaceuticals, industry experts expect large global biopharmaceutical companies to consider China as a materials, labor, and service resource. Large biopharmaceutical companies in China will likely become a more significant global resource for APIs and advanced intermediates.
According to government statistics, China's biologics market exceeded $2.5 billion in 2004 and is growing at a rate of 13% per year. This market is primarily dominated by generics manufacturers. Most of these companies are small domestic players that compete on price and tend to have excess manufacturing capacity. With excess capacity and compressed margins, Chinese biopharmaceutical manufacturers are ideal to partner with or acquire.

Indonesia Expects an Increase in Oil and Gas Investment for 2013
From Jakarta Post
Indonesia expects an increase in oil and gas investment this year after approving as many as 274 work plans and budgets from contractors.
Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Jero Wacik said in Jakarta on Tuesday that investment for 2013 of US$26.2 billion was anticipated.
"We want all contractors in the country to implement their program as specified in their plans so that our target for oil and gas output and state revenue can be achieved," he said.
Jero, head of the interim upstream regulatory task force SKMigas, officially approved the 274 work plan and budgets in December last year and, on Tuesday, handed them over at the task force's headquarters in Jakarta.
Of the 274 oil and gas contractors, 74 are in the production phase such as France-based Total E&P Indonesia in the Mahakam block in East Kalimantan.
The total investment for these 74 contractors is around $23.5 billion. They plan to drill 1,200 developing wells, 1,100 work-over wells and 100 exploration wells.
Meanwhile, the 200 contractors still on the exploration phase will invest $2.7 billion this year, to drill 75 exploration wells and over 80 coal bed methane (CBM) gas exploration wells.

Lakeland Police Arrest Suspect in Fatal Shooting
Published: Tuesday, December 4, 2012 at 4:28 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 4, 2012 at 4:28 p.m.
LAKELAND | Thomas S. Waring was arrested Tuesday afternoon at a Lakeland apartment less than a mile from where he is accused of killing a 26-year-old man, police said.
Waring, 25, is charged with first-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Police received a tip Tuesday that Waring was at an apartment in the 1300 block of West 14th Street where he surrendered to police.
He's accused of killing Christopher Campbell of Lakeland who was found shot to death in a vehicle Nov. 11 in the 1200 block of Wright Drive, police said.
The owner of the vehicle Campbell was found in told police he let Campbell use it to meet someone, but he didn't provide more details.
According to the Florida Department of Corrections' website, Waring has served time in prison on cocaine and fleeing from law enforcement charges.
Lakeland detectives are interviewing Waring. He will be booked into the Polk County Jail this evening, police said.

Dublin High boys basketball coach Tom Costello was more tense than usual at school on Wednesday. His team had a chance to clinch its first league championship in 40 years, and it was affecting him around his co-workers.
Consider the weight lifted. JoJo McGlaston scored 31 points and Jamir Andrews added 21 as the Gaels pulled away from host Campolindo late for a 91-75 victory to clinch the Diablo Foothill Athletic League championship.
Dublin's last league title came in 1973 when it won the East Bay Athletic League crown.
"Man, that's a long time ago -- 40 years," has become a mantra for the Gaels, according to Costello.
Dublin (20-3, 10-0 DFAL) used strong second and fourth quarters to pull away from a gutty Campolindo team. The Cougars (16-7, 7-3) had five players in double figures, led by Walter Brennan's 13 points. However, Matt O'Reiley was held to three points by Cameron Moses, one of the keys to the game, according to Costello.
Another key was Spencer Hollie's 11 rebounds, as well as Devin Koeplin's 12 points -- all in the second half.
Costello said Dublin Mayor Tim Sbranti pointed out to him that the team hadn't won a league title in 40 years. Costello and his coaching staff then had to decide whether to make it a goal for the Gaels.
"Do you tell the kids and throw it on their shoulders?" Costello said.
Dublin has a bye on Friday, so the team can celebrate for a few days. However, now there's another goal for the Gaels -- an undefeated league season.
Girls basketball
K.C. Waters became the first Bishop O'Dowd player in girls program history to reach 1,000 rebounds in a career as the Dragons handled Hayward 63-16. The Cal-bound senior forward grabbed 11 rebounds in the victory. She reached the 1,000-point mark earlier in the season.

Boys soccer
Campolindo 2, Dougherty Valley 1: The host Cougars bolstered their chance for a high seed in next week's North Coast Section Division II playoffs with a comeback win over the Wildcats.
Trailing 1-0, Campolindo (15-6-2, 7-3-1 DFAL) equalized on a Seth Kofman goal in the 32nd minute. Kyle Gavce then scored the game-winner on a rebound in the 64th minute.
Campolindo beat Las Lomas 2-1 on Jan. 30 but lost 2-1 to Alhambra two days later to dash its faint DFAL title hopes. Acalanes clinched the league title last week.
"Last week was probably our two worst performances," Campolindo coach Shane Carney said. "This week we talked a out this being a big game to show how we wanted to play in the playoffs."
Dougherty Valley's goal came in the seventh minute from Anoop Gala -- his 22nd goal of the season. The Wildcats (8-8-2, 4-6-1) could have become eligible for the Division I playoffs with a victory, but they can still become eligible with a win or tie against Las Lomas on Friday.

You may have noticed that the words "Mike Modano" haven't made their way to this blog yet this summer. In fact I know that you've noticed because I have received multiple emails asking if I'm exclusively writing out of a time machine now. That is not entirely true. I do have a time machine that I typically spend the month of August in because I'm a nostalgic old sap who would rather re-live the 90's than read about Brett Favre's dick or give myself an ulcer arguing over old 3rd liners ("But what about all of your Bertuzzi hate from last year?" Easily justified: it's acceptable to be a hypocrite if I am the one being hypocritical. It's only a negative characteristic when others are hypocritical by nature. This self-profiting sense of one's own hypocrisy is hypocritical unto itself, thus canceling out the hypocrisy and forming an opinion that is exemplary of genuine logic because it's done intentionally in the name of irony. The only downside is that nobody takes me seriously and I just fucked my own brain into the 5th dimension.)
But I can't avoid this forever. Modano has become such a divisive force that Chris Hollis retired, "Prodano / Nodano" has enough groundswell to form its own T-shirt line, and some of our favorite writers are re-enacting the Civil War -- except now Hollis won't be there to resolve it. He usually plays Abe Lincoln when we bloggers get together and put on history musicals for Michigan youths. I usually play Dauber from the TV show Coach.
I'm getting sidetracked here, and I need to make up for lost time. I haven't taken one stance on Mike Modano the Red Wing since news first broke that he might be coming home, so let's lay them all out at once. The following issues are all fairly black and white; 99.9% of you not only feel strongly about them one way or the other, but odds are you have a lunchbox or a bumper sticker to show your approval or disdain either way.
No he isn't. "Washed up" is entirely useless. Just now I ran a quick Sega projection of what his 2010-11 season will look like, and it's telling me 62 points and at least 20 TTD jokes relating him to Napoleon Dynamite. Translated to real life equates to roughly 45 points and 130 TTD jokes relating him to Napoleon Dynamite. Good gravy, look at that picture. You might be thinking that that's sort of the same production as #44 put up last season, but I don't pay you to think. I pay you to read what I write and show your co-workers because I'm more egocentric than you think Mike Modano is. By a LOT. Plus, he doesn't smell like 3-week-old tuna casserole fart like Bertuzzi does, and he's at least five times smarter. Then again, so is a tuna casserole.
Well, Darren Helm has now been booked for two years and will be a restricted free agent after that, so there goes his end of the argument. Abdelkader will re-sign for a similar amount, and then the five guys at the bottom of the lineup of forwards can claw at each other's necks for 82+ games. It'll be great.
Are you bummed out that they won't get long term deals? Okay funny guy .... why, exactly? I love Justin Abdelkader. I l-o-v-e him. In a totally, mentally disturbing and frighteningly gay way. When he and I were at Michigan State, I would follow him to classes that I wasn't enrolled in and sit behind him in hopes that I would catch a whiff of Pert Plus off of his curly golden locks. Are you still reading this? Why in the fuck are you reading this? I've probably been arrested since you opened this page. But, uh .... yeah, I'm not dying for him to sign a 13 year deal yet. He's not ready for it, and neither is Darren Helm. Yeah I said it, Herm.
You may have a point. Mike Modano playing 3rd line center is going to give Abdelkader and Helm less space to move up. If everyone stays healthy for the whole year, those two aren't going to see as much ice as they would have without this signing. But the only way that everyone stays healthy for the whole year is if you do more PCP than Scott Hartnell's mom and see it in a wild dream while you're passed out under the porch swing. Todd Bertuzzi is going to tear something in the first month of the season, I'm calling it right now. I will not shut any whore mouths because he's a fragile, older power forward who miraculously - MIRACULOUSLY - made it through 2009-10 relatively unscathed. Maybe Modano himself will get injured again, who knows. Dude looks half asleep anyway, he might miss ten games from excessive napping alone.
He's got a hot wife who does Hollywood things, so naturally, he's full of himself. He's got it made and you don't. That dick.
I'm giving this an honest thought: I might just be oblivious to this. Maybe he just loves people looking at him and hanging out with Mark Cuban a whole lot and I haven't taken note. I just don't recall hearing negative things about him. He's never said anything or done anything that has really rubbed me the wrong way. He wants a few weeks to decide his future? That's fine. I take 20 minutes to decide on what to eat for breakfast, who am I to judge.
We won a Stanley Cup in 2008, pretty convincingly I might add, with the same core defenders, only now Brett Lebda is swimming in money in Toronto like Donald Duck. I think a relatively healthy year cures all of that nonsense. But if I'm wrong and there's a quandary of defensive issues even with a healthy squad, my money is on the whole "team needs to be shaken up a bit" thing, which wouldn't be fixed with a 5th d-man anyhow. Only time and the expiration of no-trade clauses would fix that if you know what I'm getting at.
Honestly, I've just always wanted to have a picture on here where Bombay's head was used to censor nipples.
As in, "He said he'd make up his mind soon..... that's, like, a total lie." This one is my absolute favorite. I could not possibly, conceivably, imaginably give less of a fuck about this. He said the words "It's Detroit or retirement", and then proceeded to be linked with 3 or 4 other teams. Didn't care, and can't see why others did so much. Maybe he said that and a few other teams came calling. I can't remember the order of events, nor do I care to double check them. He said, "The sooner, the better," and then took a couple of weeks. Didn't care, and couldn't see why others did in the slightest.
Some of my dearest of fake friends, many of whom went off in this thread, decided they had enough...... as of July 20th. I have heard people and read people who have said that he's not worth the trouble if he's going to act like this. So he could be a valuable member to the team, could bolster that whiskey dick power play and could provide some forward depth to a team that really needed it last year, but it wouldn't be worth it because he was a little off in some newspaper quotes in fucking July. Yeah I can see that.
This is a good move for the Wings, and that scares me because I am almost always wrong. Luckily for us, Kenny is almost always right. We shall see.

Copped some 2011 (or was it 2010) Adidas Luke Skywalker hi-tops. Size 9
And my kit for special occasions
The leather jacket is dope.
I have a thing about hats with ears at the moment. Including a knock-off spirit hood and a knitted hat with a cat face and little cat ears >.> Cute? Ridiculous? Who knows.
Ridiculous? Nah, this is ridiculous:
... And I say having recently received them as an over enthusiastic gift that is getting returned >_>
They are neat, though.
I dunno, hats with ears could look sort of cute on a girl, though the headset with the ears is just downright weird.
I have one hat with ears...and one that's a penguin.
It's surprisingly comfortable but the brain sensor on the forehead makes you look like you're in an infomercial and forgot to lower your mic.
And I don't think my brain was good enough to control the ears for the brief time I toyed with them, but apparently you can move them intentionally if you think right, versus them responding to your brain.
I have a Finn hat, which has little ears, and a panda hat, which also has ears. Do squids have ears? I also have a hat that is a squid.
Finn hats remind me of M47R1X.
One of the girls at work had those ^^ delivered to work.
Funny. For about 2 minutes.
So this two piece is pretty amazing.
Also love these shoes.

Liverpool Message Board
Our Players While on Break..
I've had the opportunity to watch a couple of matches live over the past few days, for World Cup Qualifiers and International Friendlies, and while there's a whole other batch to be played tomorrow and the day after, I figured I'd comment on what I've seen.. Curious to anyone else's thoughts/comments on what they'd seen.
Victor Moses - Scored the winning goal in Nigeria's WC clinching victory, and today he was causing all kinds of chaos to the Italy defense, while playing at Craven Cottage, including a very sleek through ball, that led to a headed goal for a 2-1 lead. Goal and half assist (another player crossed it), not bad & we need this!
Kolo Toure - Played RB for Ivory Coast only because they have 2 brothers who play CB for the same European club, Trazbonspor perhaps? He held his own, and more or less helped them keep a clean sheet.
Daniel Agger - Captained Denmark to a 2-1 victory, in a friendly. I didn't see it, but as long as we know he didn't get hurt, then it was a successful match for him.
Martin Skrtel - Captained underdogs, Slovakia to a 2-0 away victory in Poland. Kept Robert Lewandowski in his pocket. Right now, he's on that sheet as fast as Suarez, Mignolet and Gerrard.
Joe Allen - Won MOM vs Finland, and I couldn't believe my eyes. Saw a compilation video & If I didn't know it was Joe Allen, I would have asked, who the hell is this guy? He was winning balls, and pushing players off the ball, while retaining possession, like he was in a Barcelona shirt.. He could end up a huge piece for us!
Sturridge - limps off the field today after 45 minutes with a thigh injury, and some news says he's ruled out, but they uncle Woy declares he's fit and will start vs. Germany, so I expect a torn thigh, missing 2-4 weeks, because he's made of glass and Roy seems to have little concern, while attempting a futile, meaningless effort in winning vs. the Germans..Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Internationals make me nervous due to the injury risk. The games are one thing but I also believe that the air travel also plays a part.
I haven't seen much as my focus has been on the rugby (Autumn internationals) but it's good to hear Allen doing well. In my view he is the closest (style wise) to Ramsey and then Xavi. A short passing game with close skills and being silky smooth in possession. I would also add that before this season Ramsey was being slated by Arsenal fans. This year he's a hot property and I have a theory. Movement. The addition of Ozil into the Arsenal fold has provided a significant increase in midfield movement and that gives him options. It's where we should be aspiring to but we're a long way off that but I see Allen as an important player for us in a future midfield that I hope is whole lot more fluid. It's the next crucial step in our development as a side.
Didn't see Moses but I still remain to be convinced.
Sturridge has been passed fit. Cross fingers that doesn't mean he gets a jab and comes back crooked.

Hey Colyn,
I share the similar concerns, and I get particularly upset/concerned when it involves friendlies. We almost always seem assured of losing someone, and in the past few years, prior to BR's arrival and whatever witch doctor he hired, it's been Gerrard and his groin. This time I'm expecting Danny to strain his never ending thigh injury, or Glenda to break a finger nail..
I watched the video compilation on youtube of Allen's MOM performance in his game again, and I was even more impressed the 2nd time, and no I don't care it was vs. Iceland or Finland, because he's about 5'6 regardless who he plays against, and when he's throwing himself into the tackle, winning balls, and pushing people over, twice his size, it's impressive nonetheless. Perhaps the best part of all of that, was along the lines of what you said, and what we need.. the minute he won a ball back, either in the defensive half, protecting, or higher up the pitch, he immediately re-distributed the ball to a teammate, either going forward, or back, just to retain good possession.
If he can come in, and do these sorts of things, and get the ball out quickly, either backwards to Gerrard to spray forward, or find some clever balls to Coutinho, it makes us even more dangerous, because at the end of the day Rodgers' system and approach, is quick passing and movement.
I still think we need 2 bodies in January, 1 out wide for sure, and then either a mid or versatile forward, but if Allen can come in and look like this, perhaps we get by with 1 super buy of the highest quality.. in a wide player..

SANTA CLARA -- Offensive coordinator Greg Roman believes option packages deserve their increasing presence in NFL offenses, even after his call for an option-pitch Sunday helped spark the 49ers' 16-13 overtime loss at St. Louis.
Other than say there were "too many moving parts," Roman declined to detail why the 49ers, from their 17-yard line with just over three minutes left, had Colin Kaepernick attempt an ill-fated toss to Ted Ginn Jr. The play resulted in a Rams' fumble recovery and touchdown.
"I'm not going to get into X's and O's," Roman said Thursday. "The result was not the intent of the play call."
Coach Jim Harbaugh has repeatedly stepped forward this week and accepted blame for what he admitted was too risky a call at that point in the game, with the 49ers ahead 10-2.
Roman, the 49ers' primary play caller, said of his duties: "Any play you call, bad things can happen ... and great things can happen."
When reviewing past calls, Roman noted he judges the play's intent and who's asked to do what on it. Roman sounds willing to again tap into Kaepernick's talent of read-option plays in the "WildKap."
"I do think it has a role relative to who you're playing against," Roman added. "Pittsburgh ran an option play against the Packers in the Super Bowl a couple years ago. It's in a lot of people's playbooks. ... Those kind of plays put pressure on defenses. It all comes down to execution."
