A magnificent Harbin Opera House, located in the Northern Chinese city of Harbin has been unveiled by MAD Architects. The company won the international open competition for Harbin Cultural Island, a master plan for an opera house in 2010. This architecture can be an iconic landmark, a focal point of the Cultural Island, featuring a building area of approx. 850,000 square feet of the site's 444 acres total area. This building houses a grand theater that can accommodate up to 1,600 people and a smaller one for more intimate events with an audience of 400.
Surrounded by Harbin's wetlands, this opera house has been designed in response to the force of spirit of the northern city's untamed wilderness and frigid climate. The exterior is designed as if sculpted by wind and water, it blends in harmony with its surrounding nature and topography, a transfusion of local identity, art, and culture. The vision is to create a futuristic cultural center, a dramatic space that integrates human, art, and the city identity.

New Britain — Reports of a person carrying a sword or a handgun led to a three-hour lockdown at Central Connecticut State University on Monday, but police said no weapons were recovered and there was no threat to the campus.
Three school-age people were in custody, but no charges were filed and police said they were investigating whether the scare may have been set off by somebody wearing a Halloween costume.
"We had no real threat to students or faculty," said Chris Cervoni, chief of the campus police.
The university declared a campus emergency at about noon Monday, directing people to stay inside and away from windows on the 182-acre campus south of Hartford. State troopers and police from several nearby cities responded, and SWAT teams swarmed around a 400-student residential building, James Hall, where the suspect had been seen.
Officials said that even if it was a prank, the concern was real, noting the person dressed in camouflage was the subject of several 911 calls.
"In this situation, our prayers were answered," said Jack Miller, the university's president, who noted the FBI was among the agencies that responded. "Certainly there have been many other situations that didn't conclude in this way."
Jordan Governale, a 20-year-old junior from Farmington, said he walked by a man carrying a backpack and with a sword and sheath strapped to his back Monday morning. The man was wearing a mask, camouflage pants, knee pads and a vest resembling body armor, Governale said.
A minute later, he said, he saw police.
"At first I thought it was a Halloween costume. But after I saw the cops I thought it was some sort of threat," he said. "It's pretty scary. It's pretty strange, unexpected."
The lockdown was lifted shortly after 3 p.m. University spokeswoman Janice Palmer said that the students who had been inside James Hall were moved to another building for questioning.
Cervoni said the three people of interest were taken into custody on a fourth-floor hallway of James Hall and the primary suspect is a student at CCSU. He said police were continuing to search the building.
Classes were canceled for the rest of the day at the school, which has more than 12,000 students.
Morgan Podlisny, an 18-year-old freshman who lives in the adjacent Seth North residence hall, said she and her friends watched the situation unfold next door.
"Our whole dorm was freaking out," she said. "At first, there were a lot of cops there rushing in with guns.
Kiara Gupton, a 21-year-old junior, said she could see SWAT teams and dogs.
"I'm really just upset about this," she said, recalling last year's deadly school shooting in Newtown, about 30 miles away. "It's scary. ... To see all these SWAT teams outside is really just overwhelming."
Two New Britain schools near the campus were also locked down as a precaution, according to the superintendent's office.

When I asked for a refund due to their false advertising I was told that they are not responsible for duties charged outside of Canada. If they had labelled the package properly I would have been duties. I got no response. Fine, they can't ship packages properly.. How about their ink quality? Well, they drain immediately with the most minimum of usage. I only print an average of 5 pages per month. That's a total of 25 pages so far and now the cartridge is bone dry.

I have been going gah-gah for Janet's (Janet1949) recent pages, so much so that I was determined to lift one; I even pm'd her to get her secrets. If you haven't seen it, you really must go take a look at Janet's fantabulous St. Katherine's Docks, London. This page turns out to be Janet's lift of a beautiful page by Guinevere, so I guess we have a chain lift here.
The story is this...
Well, actually, the story is already in the journaling (see below). However, I will add that my neighbor now considers me certifiable, if she didn't already. My response upon seeing a vine growing out of my chimney? Why, I ran into the house and grabbed my camera, of course! The conversation went something like this...
Me: "Blah, blah, blah..."
Her: "Blah, blah, blah..."
Me: "Blah, bla- HOLY #$%^! There's a vine growing out of my chimney! How'd that get there? Wait! I'll be right back!"
Me: "Oh! Hi! You're still here! Sorry about that! I needed to get my camera."
Her: "I swear you'd photograph lint!"
Me: "I would if it had a story to tell!"
ETA: page title is taken from a song from the movie "Mary Poppins."
Journaling reads:
"The other day I was standing at the entrance to our cul-de-sac chatting with one of the neighbors when I
happened to glance back at our house and saw...a vine! Growing out of our CHIMNEY! Akk! Time to tear down the jasmine!"

Website: Deadly shooting of US marine in Kuwait claimed by Al Qaeda
A shooting attack in Kuwait, which killed a US marine and injured another was purportedly claimed by al-Qaeda on Friday.
The statement, published by an Islamist web-site, also claimed the US has covered up "huge losses" in the October 8th attack during marine training on Failaka island, some 20 kilometers east of Kuwait City. "We hail this courageous and successful operation ... that caused huge losses to the Americans," said the Arabic-language statement signed by the "political office" of the terror group carried by www.jehad.net, cited by AFP.
The statement, whose authenticity could not be immediately verified, continues on to accuse Washington of "covering up the huge losses of marines, and saying the bloody operation killed one and wounded another."
Furthermore, the statement claims that "to cover up the degree of their losses, the Americans did not allow Kuwaiti police to investigate the incident." It claims the US forces "prevented, for four hours leading Kuwaiti officials and the interior and defense ministries to land on Falaika island, to have enough time to evacuate the bodies by helicopter to US aircraft carriers in the Gulf." (Albawaba.com)

Rating: nr - Violence, Profanity
Evil Dead director Sam Raimi takes the helm for this "spook-a-blast" shocker about an ambitious L.A. loan officer who incurs the wrath of a malevolent gypsy by refusing to grant her an extension on her home loan. Determined to impress her boss and get a much-needed promotion at work, Christine Brown (Alison Lohman) lays down the law when mysterious Mrs. Ganush (Lorna Raver) literally comes begging for mercy at her feet. In retaliation for being publicly shamed, Mrs. Ganush places the dreaded curse of the Lamia on her unfortunate target, transforming Christine's life into a waking nightmare. Her skeptical boyfriend, Clay (Justin Long), casually brushing off her disturbing encounters as mere coincidence, Christine attempts to escape eternal damnation by seeking out the aid of seer Rham Jas (Dileep Rao ). But Christine's time is fast running out, and unless she's able to break the curse, she'll be tormented by a demon for three days before literally being dragged to hell. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Actually, only 23% of pregnancy charts have an implantation dip. So more than 3 in 4 pregnant women don't get a dip!
I love fertility friend's chart studies. If there's one thing I've learned, it's that the women talking about signs and symptoms have made me greatly overestimate their reliability as pregnancy indicator. The only thing that has a >50% reliability is a positive pregnancy test.

This is the expectation of a person to see or perceive something based on prior experience. Writers sometimes use this concept in movie scripts in a humorous scene. For example, people expect a large man to have a very low voice. This is a stereotype. If instead, the large man in a movie speaks in a very high pitched voice, the audience is surprised and therefore finds the scene funny.

Very nice looking, but unsure about accuracy
The graphics are undoubtedly beautiful, but I'm unsure about the accuracy. I placed first an iPhone 4 (with its built-in compass app) and my iPad 2 (with this app) in the same place in one room (one at a time so as not to cause interference). The readings seemed to differ by about 6° (phone would read 355°/8°, pad would read 350°/2°) in either mode (magnetic/true). But that may be because the *iPhone*'s app is inaccurate. I can't tell. In any case it would definitely appear to be in the general vicinity of the exact direction.
The best I've found
I deleted my other paid compass apps after I downloaded this one. The others just had too much information, more than I wanted. I needed a simple, easy to understand compass and this one fits my need perfectly.
Works just like a real compass
In a bind and in the freezing cold I needed a compass to get elevation and azimuth for pointing a satellite dish back on path. This compass functions just like the real thing, it was even affected by the metal in the dish to throw off the reading. Once I stepped away from the dish it gave me the true reading.

Just a quick heads up for all you online shoppers out there: Amazon.com has announced that they will start charging sales tax on all orders coming from The Keystone State (that's us).
In the past, the company did not charge sales tax, which sort of pissed of state governments and became this whole big thing. Alas, state authorities have finally put an end to our foul impropriety, drafting a directive which forces us to pay the tax man starting this Saturday.
Since everything you order from Amazon will cost you 6% more, now would be the best time to order that Three Wolf Moon Short Sleeve Tee we've been asking for… just sayin'.

I called the number and waited... and waited... so I googled the name of the company as it was provided in the recording when my call was first "answered". I found the rip-off report instead of a company website.
I am even more on the deffensive, as the customer service rep finally picks up. I ask him where he got my credit card information and who authorized for these services. He says that they are a "sales partner" to DishNetwork and that he can access my account if I give him my home phone number.
I tell him that I will not be providing him with ANY personal information as I did not recognize nor authorize any of these services. The rep says that DishNetwork probably signed me up for this and I missed it in the agreement since I am a new subscriber... I say "new subscriber... I have been at DishNetwork for YEARS and this is the first I ever heard of any protection plan from some outside company".
I tell him to cancel whatever it is I am signed up for... He says if I give him my DishNetwork information he can cancel it for me... Again, what did he not understand about me NOT giving him any personal information... I tell him that I will call DishNetwork and work it out with them since they allegedly signed me up for this plan.
I talk to a DishNetwork rep that says she has never heard of this company and they do not sign-up their customers to protection plans offered by E-Club. She puts a note in my file and I tell her she should consider putting a warning on their website or warning other customers of this kind of activity.
Good news is when I called my credit card company they removed the charges to my account and will be contacting E-club or Homes Club, or whatever it is they are calling themselves and will cancel any furture attempts they make to charge my card.

The 23-year-old son of former Wigan and Castleford rugby league star Frano Botica kicked five penalties from five attempts for Quins, 31-30 winners at Northampton last weekend.
Botica's teenage replacement Louis Grimoldby added two second-half penalties to kill off a fightback by Bath, who had been comprehensively outplayed in the first period.
Former All Blacks fly-half Stephen Donald kicked three penalties for the visitors, with his replacement Tom Heathcote kicking one.
But their cause was not helped by the sin-binning of prop Anthony Perinese in the first half and replacement hooker Brett Sharman in the second.
Rob Miller's late penalty secured Sale Sharks' first triumph of this season's LV= Cup as they won 25-23 at the expense of Saracens at the Salford City Stadium.
Tries by Kameli Ratuvou and Joel Tomkins to go alongside 10 points from the boot of Nils Mordt gave Sarries a 20-12 half-time advantage, with Sale's response before the interval coming through Mark Cueto's score and a penalty try.
A Fraser McKenzie touchdown and a Danny Cipriani penalty took the Sharks into the lead before Ben Spencer's three-pointer edged the visitors ahead again, but Miller slotted a late penalty to earn the victory for the hosts.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Hello, my name is Katherine. I've had a heart wrenching holiday season for many reasons but refusing to honor purchased insurance coverage for packages sent for $2000 that were lost by UPS delivery is my last straw.
In the Denver community, I am known as The Pumpkin Lady. I have a local Christian Ministry called Heavenly Loaves. I deliver food and free bibles to the abused women's and children's shelters and other homeless shelters in Charlotte. I teach and counsel young abused women that they will continually be victimized unless they tell someone about the abuse. I am now once again the victim except that I intend to tell anyone who will listen to me. I am a practicing Christian and I make no apologies for it. But enough is enough, I may not get my money back but I would feel better if others were not scammed like I was.
On November 30th, I shipped four extra large boxes of Christmas Items to my only daughter in Idaho. They never arrived, despite waiting extra few days before we called an alarm because of usual Christmas rush packages at that time of year. Each year, Jewel (Store manager of UPS in Denver, NC, Store #4081) has chastened me to be patient when boxes did not arrive on time because Millions of boxes are being delivered during the busiest time of the year. I waited a few days as I was told to sound the alarm, now it has been thrown up in my face as my fault the boxes were never delivered.
I put the right address on each box, as I always do. Why would I send my daughter's and grandchildren's gifts to another??? All throughout the years of 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, my boxes were shipped successfully to my daughter's correct address without incident. So I took my Christmas boxes there again before the holidays began on November 20th, 2006. The lady behind the check out counter rang up the charges (Over $100) and put printed labels ON TOP of my addresses that I had printed on each one. I saw her do it and I didn't think there was anything wrong.
Apparently, the Denver UPS Computer had a former address (many years old) of my daughters and the packages were dropped off there. Unfortunately, the woman there claiming to be my daughter was not and the boxes were stolen. When the investigation got going by my daughter as to where the boxes went, the woman said she stacked the four boxes in front of the local UPS Store in Sandpoint, ID late on Friday night, thinking they would be picked up and taken inside the following Monday morning. How can a business charge for $2000 insurance coverage when they don't even require a signature to prove delivery?
I am not a stupid woman. I do not believe her but apparently we can't prove she's lying and so my grandchildren and family had no Christmas to speak of. You need to understand that I am disabled and make a monthly check of only $601 from Social Security Disability. I am blessed with a wonderful husband who has a job to pay for our needs. But money was impossibly short this year because he went through TWO hip replacement surgeries back to back in five months.
My only child has a son of four years and a little girl born with Cerebral Palsy, she is profoundly disabled. I sent crafts and sewing and many toys and clothing gifts. I have to start my Christmas shopping in February because of my low income.
When we finally knew the boxes were lost, my daughter cried for the homemade baby's quilt that was taken and went to her local newspaper and ran the article enclosed, asking for at least that blanket because it had such sentimental value. My little granddaughter has spent more of her life in a hospital in critical care than in the home of my daughter and son-in-law. We just did not know if Little Natalie was even going to get a Christmas last year. God was good to us, she is still alive and we are grateful. Oh course, nothing was retrieved.
I took out $500 worth of delivery insurance (I have the receipts) on each box for safe delivery. After contacting Jewel (Denver UPS Manager), she managed to arrogantly hang up on me twice without me ever raising my voice. She said she would do what she could do.
It's now the middle of January, and after much calling and asking, she finally called me this afternoon and said that her store would not honor my insurance claim. They won't even refund the shipping costs, despite that the boxes never arrived.
I don't know what to do. I did not break the law. Three Christmas's ago, I sent many boxes as I always do and one was never delivered. Jewel firmly stated that there was nothing they could do, I should have insured them. The following Christmas of 05, I did insure all the boxes and sure enough, one was never delivered. The store gave me half the $100 insurance I was entitled to, plus shipping costs. I agreed to the amount because basically Jewel said I had no other recourse.
Now Christmas of 2006, ALL of my Christmas boxes are lost and they won't honor the insurance I bought and paid for. I need this story to get out. I can't believe that I am the only person in Denver, NC that has ever had these people do this to them, especially three years in a row.
As a sign of Christian faith and love, I took them the usual tray of cookies I give out to many businesses every Christmas in celebration. And the call this afternoon was my thanks. I'm frustrated, I'm mad, and I have been robbed. Not just by a stranger but by UPS Staff that I trusted with my shipping needs for three years.
Can you help me and get something written up about this?
If UPS will not honor their insurance, the public should never pay for that service. It's wrong and it's public fraud. Please help me.

NEPD Staff Writer: Mike Gerken
We reach the final scouting report for the 2016 draft. I apologize for dragging this out so long, but an unexpected work trip has kept me from finishing this up until now. Way back when, before the draft, I said in one of my reports that the Patriots could surprise us and double dip at Wide Receiver, and that is exactly what they did. Now, when I made that statement, I was thinking that it was a real possibility that Danny Amendola could be released. Either way, a seventh round pick is going to struggle to make the final 53 man roster, but Lucien should enough in college that he might just have what it takes to surprise us all and force his way onto the roster.

Peter Kirschner and Stuart Rubens are at it again TRYING TO STEAL $$$$ FROM THE PUBLIC. This time they are running a debt settlement company from Hollywood FL and Boca Raton FL.
There are two company names involved in this scam so be careful- WHITESTAR FINANCIAL and NATIONAL DEBT DEFENDERS NETWORK- they scam you into signing up with them and then will totally screw you over any way that they can. They were bragging about how funny it is to over charge people on their new pre paid debit cards because they have bad credit. These guy are botttom feeding maggots!!!
You do not have to take my word for it- after looking at their public records on the NASD website and all of the trouble they got into with SEC- just type their names into a search engine with debt settlement or WHITESTAR FINANCIAL and you will see they have stolen from the elderly and people just trying to get by. [continued below]....
I was hired by these guys to raise money for them- obviously nobody on earth would give them a penny with their records so they were on Craigs List looking for people with contacts. The problem with me was that- my clients and I found out about how dishonest they were and how many people they have tried to steal from in the past. I got 4 draw payments from them for all of my time and expenses that I incurred before I realized their track records. One of my prospects actually sent me a print out- all I can say in THANK GOD we found out before they got a chance to steal from us.
They will be closed down soon, but scum like these always seems to pop up again so just no matter stay away from PETER KIRSHCNER and STUART RUBENS

One man is in critical condition and three others are in stable condition in hospital after being struck by lightning at a golf course north of Toronto.
York Regional Police say the incident happened just before noon Tuesday at Bethesda Grange Golf Course in Whitchurch-Stouffville.
Witnesses at the golf course say they heard a horn warning them to get off the course and shortly afterwards heard a loud crack, believed to be the lightning.
Some of those at the scene rushed to assist the injured golfers by giving them first aid and CPR.
Police say a 51-year-old man from Thornhill, and two Toronto men, aged 53 and 56, are in stable condition, while a 60-year-old-man from Richmond Hill is in critical condition.
Peter Epstein, one of the first people to reach the injured, says one of the men had no vital signs but was revived by an ICU nurse who happened to be playing golf, and a firefighter who arrived.
He says the man, who he described as ``dead'' when found, had many burns and melted clothing.
``His hat was just melted, it was just completely blown off his head,'' he said.
He said the golfers who were hit appeared to be in the same group, about 100 metres from the clubhouse.
``We heard the horn ... and then the next thing you know, just this big flash and bang, all at the same time,'' said Epstein, who was at the golf course for a tournament. ``It was wild.''
Environment Canada had earlier issued a severe thunderstorm watch for southern Ontario, including Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area.

Naomi Campbell for YSL? Linda Hunt As Simon Doonan?
Plus, are plain black heels a thing of the past? Could the Chanel exhibit in downtown Hong Kong get any cooler? Will Camille Alves handbag line be a success? So many questions for a Monday…
• So long, Kate Moss? Rumor has it Yves Saint Laurent head designer Stefano Pilati has chosen Naomi Campbell as the next bad-girl model for his fall campaign, which she already shot in Paris (or so the story goes). [WWD]
• Simon Doonan hopes an actress like Linda Hunt will play him in the new BBC sitcom series based on his memoir, Nasty: My Family and Other Glamorous Varmints. [NYP]
• The hardest thing for shoe retailers to sell is a "black kitten heel" as women try to look edgy with footwear like Louis Vuitton's record-setting seven-inch spiked platforms. [Times UK]
• The Chanel mobile art exhibit might look like a haute spaceship in the middle of downtown Hong Kong, but the art inside is pretty special: All works had to be based on the quilted Chanel bag Coco designed in 1955. [IHT]
• Former Valentino and Armani model Camille Alves is launching a line of leather handbags called Muxo. They're everything she wished she had when she was a jet-setting model. [WWD]
• Kate Moss bought a black cab in London and is driving her friends to the pubs. [Daily Mail]
• The invitation to fashion designer Juliette Longuet's party at Blue and Cream boasted "many models, socialites, and working girls" would be in attendance. "Page Six" notes "working girls" really means hookers, but the designer probably meant girls with jobs. We hope. [NYP]

Finance guru wins recognition
Published: Sunday, July 8, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, July 7, 2007 at 10:53 p.m.
HOUMA -- Hard work and support from his family earned a local financial advisor an award for exceptional work during his first year with a national financial-services firm.
Blake Bergeron Jr., 24, received the Ted Jones Prospecting Award, given to advisors who open more than 120 accounts within their first year of employment with Edward Jones, said Bergeron. The firm helps people with long-term investments including college savings and retirement planning. The St. Louis-based company employs more than 10,000 financial advisors across the United States.
The award is named after the son of the firms founder, who established the tradition of one-person branch offices in smaller communities rather than limited offices to large cities. Bergeron operates a single-advisor office at 707 Grand Caillou Road.
"Im very proud to receive an award named after Ted Jones," Bergeron said. "It is because of him that our Houma office exists, and I believe we are serving an important need here for one-on-one investment information. I plan to do my best to continue meeting that need."
Bergeron was one of three financial advisors to receive the award in the companys Region 64, which includes Houma, Thibodaux, Morgan City, Kenner, Metairie, Gretna, La Place and New Orleans. The others are Lee Rogers of Gretna and Mike Gautreau of Metairie.
"We recruit and hire our financial advisors from among the best, so we expect our brokers to do well," said James D. Weddle, Edward Jones managing partner. "But to achieve such success in the first year is outstanding, and I commend Blake for his performance and dedication."
Bergeron credits his success to several factors. "Door knocking in neighborhoods to meet people, staying in contact with my prospects, presenting investments that solved a problem to my clients needs, great team work with my partner Anna Boquet and support from my family."
A Houma native, Bergeron graduated with a degree in finance from Nicholls State University in 2005 and joined Edward Jones last year.

The four Sudanese athletes who came to the U.S. through the A-HOPE whose eligibility was in jeopardy at Mooseheart High School in Illinois were ruled eligible to play Monday. However, the Illinois High School Association placed Mooseheart on probation and said that A-HOPE took advantage of the players, though the story doesn't say exactly why it came to that conclusion about A-HOPE. The Associated Press story is linked here and pasted below.
BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (AP) — The Illinois High School Association ruled Monday that four Sudanese students can play sports, but placed their suburban Chicago high school on probation and said the foundation that brought the athletes to the U.S. took advantage of them.
The three basketball players and one cross-country runner, all juniors at Mooseheart High School in Batavia, had worried about the IHSA's final decision and what it would mean for their dreams of obtaining college scholarships, earning degrees and returning home to help rebuild their war-torn country.
The IHSA, which governs the state's interscholastic sports, got involved after the coach of a rival high school's basketball team raised questions about A-HOPE, an Indiana-based foundation that paid for the four to come to the United States.
On Monday, the IHSA said the athletes are safe, but Mooseheart is ineligible to participate in the 2013 end-of-year state basketball series until it completes IHSA directives, which include reviewing and refining admissions processes to make sure those comply with IHSA rules.
IHSA officials said the school should be able to complete the tasks with enough time to participate in the series, which start in late February.
The IHSA also said A-HOPE took advantage of the students, and that any Illinois school that accepts referrals from A-HOPE or similar organizations, will be "presumptively ineligible."
Messages left through A-HOPE's website weren't immediately returned Monday.
"These kids just want a chance," IHSA board president Dan Klett said in a conference call with reporters. "Anybody who wants to give them a chance, they're going to jump at it."
The basketball players are 6-foot-7-inch Mangisto Deng, 6-feet-8-inch Makur Puou and 7-footer Akim Nyang. A fourth student Wal Khat, 6-foot-4, runs cross country.
A-HOPE, which stands for African Hoop Opportunities Providing an Education, is based in Bloomington, Ind. Its mission is helping "African student athletes studying in the U.S., but whose financial ability would otherwise make it impossible," according to the nonprofit's federal income tax forms.
The Sudanese athletes came to the U.S. on student visas, helped by A-HOPE. Many of the foundation's students play on the founder's AAU basketball team during the summer.
The Sudanese students came to Mooseheart after the school's basketball coach reached out to A-HOPE. Mooseheart's executive director Scott Hart has denied that anyone at the school was interested in the Sudanese students' athletic abilities before they arrived.
Hart said Monday that the school is pleased the students can play sports and is "more than willing" to make the changes necessary to get off probation.
A-HOPE's founder, Mark Adams, previously has drawn scrutiny. Last month, the NCAA suspended two Indiana University freshmen for nine games and required them to repay a part of the impermissible benefits they received from Adams, including plane tickets, meals, housing, a laptop computer, a cellphone and clothing. The NCAA said Adams was considered an Indiana University booster because he once donated $185 to the school's Varsity Club.
The IHSA board met at the group's Bloomington office Monday to hear Moosheart's appeal of the IHSA executive director's ruling that the four athletes were ineligible to compete because of a violation of the association's bylaw prohibiting recruitment of students for athletic purposes.
Last week, a judge allowed the players to compete in one more basketball game pending the board's decision. That game on Wednesday resulted in a 58-51 loss to Hinckley-Big Rock, the school that raised questions about A-HOPE.
The high school is part of Mooseheart Child City and School, a 1,000-acre residential center for children from troubled homes that is supported by the Loyal Order of Moose and the Women of the Moose.
Read more in Just sayin'
I have a question. After reading the IHSA release I see nothing specifically addressing how A=HOPE took advantage of these four students. Were they used to raise money? Were they exploited in some way? If so, specifically how? Was the school involved accomplice in taking advantage of them? How? Some specifics are required here Dustin. I would like to know exactly what the allegations are, the role of the foundation in 'taking advantage' pf these kids, the role Adams played in any possible exploitation…something. There is an undertone to the story but it is not clear what it is.
What bothers the IHSA? Is it that these kids are from another country? Is it that they are African? Is it that they are needy? Is the IHSA responding to the allegations from a clouted school? Is is that the school they are attending is a school that accepts kids in dire circumstances? Bet your life there is a story here, I just question whether the story is about the kids, about the school, about A-HOPE, about Adams, about Illinois high school athletics or about influence peddling in the IHSA?
Until something is clear, a good journalist should not drop this story.
That also was the drift I got. I can't identify the handle to the charge.
Yeah…doesn't make sense. I've had questions about A-HOPE and Adams but, when you consider the reality these kids come from, it p_ss_s me off a completely useless agency like the IHSA would direct its energies to questioning anything that gives kids a chance.
It seems to me that the story is in the IHSA and whatever is driving them. Maybe the word Africa? They'd find a lot more corruption looking internally. Good story here for any good journalist who wants to make a difference.
The short answer, I don't see where anyone took advantage of anyone else but, unless they want to clarify their statement, this is either a false allegation or a reporter's misinterpretation. I did not see the quoted phrase anywhere in the release or AP story.
Tsao – great line… "they'd find a lot more corruption looking internally."
To those of you complaining about the lack of clarification about what AHOPE did wrong here, the AP story says "the IHSA also said that A-HOPE took advantage of the students." Few if any AP stories will contain editorialization of any kind; that quote should impart enough information to understand the IHSA's verdict.
On a more important note, it's very disconcerting that this is how athletic governing bodies are treating these teenagers. "These kids just want a chance." Is it so wrong that a non-profit organization provided them with the chance that otherwise may never have come??
That quote imparts absolutely nothing. The quote itself is an editorialization withou8t any substantiation whatsoever. What is the specific allegation. From what this story read you could understand anything from economic misdeeds to much, much worse. Ap reports what they are told, in this case by the IHSA. Living in Chicago and being retired from a long career as an investigative journalist the quote from the IHSA is insufficient and nothing more than pitching c___p against the wall in the hope some of it sticks, a very routine event in 'oversight' agencies too lazy to do the work and made up of often pompous, self empowered, controlling individuals who can point fingers everywhere except the mirror. If there was something wrong, fine…then the IHSA has a moral responsibility to spell it out…otherwise their best strategy would have been to keep their mouth shut. And, if need be, the AP needs to get the clarification for the reader to understand what the IHSA mouthpiece is saying here. Fairness to those kids requires that.
Nevertheless, when I read your second graph you seem to argue (or believe) exactly the opposite of your intent in the first paragraph. The AP does not need defense, they need clarity.
DD-I agree with you and it does seem to be a confusing statement made in a very frivolous manner. It does irritate me that the AP reporter failed to get further comment on a very significant and accusatory phrase (saying this without any thought about A-HOPE or Adams, both of whom have raised questions with me). The one thing I am sure, the four Sudanese kids should not be further victimized and that should be all our concern.
I really did not think you did anything wrong. I do think perhaps this should be pursued since the IHSA it obviously misled you with the incomplete information. What was the basis for their now apparently irresponsible accusation?
Teedee- As I reread your post, perhaps I see you had the same concern about the IHSA lack of clarity as I did. (Unless the problem lies with the incomlete reporting by the AP). Don't let it surprise you about the IHSA….Salomon's Court they ain't. They'd split the baby and look for a grill.
Following is a partial transcript of a story to run in the Chicago Tribune in which IHSA and Board President Dan Klett blames A-HOPE for the recruitment of the four Sudanese refugees.
"…When asked what he would say to any other school who might use AHOPE to find basketball players, Klett said, "Don't. We don't believe they are a quality organization," [accusing]… AHOPE [of using] the students as pawns, and…Mooseheart [the residential school for kids from troubled backgrounds] didn't do enough to make sure they were complying with IHSA rules…[that] prohibit athletic recruitment," said the Tribune.
It seems, however, that the IHSA was trying to rescue IHSA Director's Marty Hickman who had originally suspended the four Sudanes kids and had been hauled into court by Mooseheart, a 99-year-old residential and educational institution for children from unstable environments, including refugees. Mooseheart disputed Hickman's decision in court and won the decision in Kane County Court from Judge David Akemann.
Lawyers for the "child city" argued that Mooseheart accepted Sudanese children regardless of their athletic prowess, sight unseen. Most important, however, the lawyers against the IHSA established the four boys in question had arrived in May 2011, they were not recent 'discoveries' and then waited a full year — at the IHSA's direction — before allowing the teens to compete in any sports.
The IHSA countered by arguing that A-HOPE, which had placed the four boys at Mooseheart, works with athletes exclusively and that basketball coach Ron Ahrens deliberately called A-Hope searching for basketball players.
The judge found against the IHSA and in favor of the four Sudanese boys, restoring their eligibility to compete. The IHSA still suspended the school, Mooseheart, however from participating in the 2013 Illinois state tournament unless it shows it has taken actions to avoid violating IHSA recruitment rules.
IHSA director Marty Hickman was later quoted as saying: "Ba humbug!", as he welcomed the Christmas season. The rest of the IHSA board sneaked out-of-town and would not comment.
The story missed the part about the 7'er wearing a Indiana shirt during the interview.
Is this a spreading of the ncaa mentality?
Again we go back to the kids in the story who know this may be their only hope for a productive life. If they had lost the case, they would be heading home with no idea of "what just happened..?"
Not a parking sticker in sight but the same over-kill.
I love how every reference to the Perea/Jurkin situation fails to mention that Adams was THEIR LEGAL GUARDIAN. It ALWAYS just says "they got meals, plane tix, housing, etc".
I'm not sure I've seen more than 1 or two stories that present all the facts.
"using students as pawns…".
It's clear that none of these 3 basketball players is going to be suiting up for IU, but this story outrages me just as much as the Perea/Jurkin one.
To what end is A-HOPE using them?
What is A-HOPE's gain?
Does A-HOPE gain more than the students do?
I could be wrong, but from what I can tell Adams is dumping his personal savings into this organization on an annual basis. I certainly don't think he is profiting from it.
IHSA = more bureaucrats with ZERO perspective… Glad the judge had some.
Hey Dustin…any chance of an story on A-Hope. The organization, where and how they get the $ to operate. I know nothing about A-Hope, but they appear to have the kids best interest in mind.
My small town in SW Florida, 10 yrs ago had one of these "prep schools" with kids from Africa and S America. Two of the kids ended up at Memphis and did well. The local school it-self was always in the local news. Failing inspections and such. The administrator, had his team playing the national schedule and was doing pretty good. Trips were supported by donations which was a problem. School closed when the program director was found to falsify schhol documents and lost state license.
One of the board members was a shoe company employee?
"…When asked what he would say to any other school who might use AHOPE to find basketball players, Klett said, "Don't. We don't believe they are a quality organization," [accusing]… AHOPE [of using] the students as pawns…." What BS
One of the many things that bothers me about the press and scrutiny that Mark Woods and A-HOPE is going through is that few if any stories mention the quality of the kids from a basketball viewpoint. Many who are not IU fans are led to believe that he is bringing 5 star studs to feed his summer team and then they are funnelled to IU. Why don't they do their job and report on how the students have performed on Mark's AAU team – studs or raw talents who have a long ways to go and then what colleges they go to and how they perform at those schoo;s in college.
TsaoTsuG, are youi a little bored in retirement, with winter coming on in Chicago why don't you put your investigative reporter talents to use and get some answers for us.
This is a non story. The timing of the posting with Hanner and Peter back is very curious.
Aruss… Are you insinuating that the NCAA asked the IHSA to sanction these kids and Moosehead in an attempt to bolster their own suspension of IU players?
I would love it if that were true because the resulting scandal would crush the current version of this "institution" and force either a complete overhaul and re-structuring, or it would cause a re-examining by BCS schools of their need to be members of the organization, potentially going off on their own.
As interesting as that would be, I don't think there is anything suspicious or nefarious about the timing of the story.
Coach Jon Fabris strikes again. Native of Flowery Branch, Georgia OLB Kristopher Smith, 6'4″ 205, is 17th commit to IU.
Geoff – no, I'm saying Dustin posting this "news" is suspect. We just had a huge football signing yesterday of a linebacker from Georgia but this is what is posted to the scoop.
Well, the timing and the A-HOPE ties are the only thing that make this a story for this blog. I don't see it as curious… It's basketball season. Probably 80% of your readership is most concerned with basketball. The fan base is still obviously sore over the NCAA ruling. A-HOPE is right in Dustin's back yard.
I see it as a story.
I think Clarion's post #19 about covers the other story…
Instate paper the Oklahoman is suggesting Seth Littrell could be 1 of 6 possible candidates contacted by Coach Gundt to interview to be OSU's next OC. Todd Monken made $600k last year as OSU's OC. Littrell is a native Sooner.
Plankton, not bored at all…with my son home from five rotations and my 4 and 2 year old grandchildren around and the tons of reading and writing on other matters I do and IU to satisfy my need for passion, not bore at all.
However, do let me tell you how it works. The story (from a newspaper's point of view) here is the possibility that four kids from Africa now in Illinois are being recruited by a somewhat opaque and mysterious organization (AHOPE) that also involves them in the 'coach's summer AAU team.They (newspapers) like the possible exploitation angle, and the involvement of schools that rival Illinois in the B1G but in a very perfunctory way.
All truth be told, I have asked the question on guardianship several times and keep getting this not too clear answer and (as a former journalist) it does raise questions. Don't forget that the issue of human trafficking is a huge issue these days and though this doesn't even come close it does raise a few 'yellow' flags since most believe corruption is rampant in the world of recruiting and basketball in general.
I could be overstating it; but, were I still and editor, I'd assign the story to see what's there.
On the other hand, (and someone correct me if I'm wrong), if Adams does in fact have legal guardianship over Mosquera Perea whatever he spends on Hanner is none of the d_____d business. Adams would then have a legal parental obligation to satisfy Perea's needs, including his travels and incidental expenditures. On Jurkins, it would be somewhat limited because of NCAA restrictions.
Adams, in some senses, brought the problem on himself. And, IU didn't help. Anytime a story comes out a drop at a time like the entire A-HOPE saga unfolded journalists will notice. I've always believed, either let it all out or say absolutely nothing, not one single word. But the story came out with a little squeeze here, a little garbled answer by Crean there, a surprise over a $185 30-year old contribution, summer AAU competition with Adams, the job for young Adams at IU, leaving for new horizons at New Mexico…you get my point…nothing is bad and everything is mysterious. Whoever the journalist is that can ignore it just isn't doing his/her job. DD did as well at opening it up and not going off the cliff as anyone would, but I'll bet he had the same misgivings I'm voicing.
A word …Crean was not always forthcoming with information and IU seemed to be operating two curves behind all the way. Either come out with it or post guards on all the approaches to the Athletic Office complex but mid-ways will get you hung and people love to attend hangings.

In Old City, 110 Church Gallery is located in the heart of Philadelphia's densest conglomeration of galleries and art spaces, but it still maintains an air of distance from the main drag. Nestled on the narrow Church Street, the area seems like a colonial getaway compared to the nearby storefronts hardly a block away around 2nd and Market. The space also rightfully prioritizes artists above all else. Sales go entirely to those exhibiting, which is certainly refreshing news for creators.
Currently, 110 Church is showcasing photographs from the "Future Cities" series by Noah Addis in partnership with the Center for Emerging Visual Aritsts (CFEVA), a Knight Arts grantee. Curated by Stella Gassaway, this series documents the unplanned growth and informal settlements of major cities around the world. For this exhibit, Addis turns his lens on Cairo, just two years after Arab Spring protests in the region ultimately led to the ousting of then-president Hosni Mubarak.
Noah Addis, "Construction; Manshiet Nasser, Cairo."
The migration away from rural areas and into urban centers that offer more opportunity in a stale economy is hardly more evident anywhere than in a nation like Egypt. These factors precipitated unrest in one of the largest Middle Eastern countries, and eventually shifted the political power and path of progress. Addis focuses on the building projects that emerged during this tumultuous period in Cairo, capturing depopulated scenes of construction sites and residential areas.
Noah Addis, "Cliffside homes; Manshiet Nasser, Cairo."
With a discerning eye for photojournalism, Addis shoots these dusty images to display the tenacity and resolve of the Egyptian people through the products of their labor. Right angles, pinkish bricks and stony cliff faces dot the landscape, broken up only by the soft green leaves of adjoining fields and carpets draped from windows of newly built homes.
One skeletal form in "Construction; Manshiet Nasser, Cairo" reveals the wooden framework of an in-progress structure, the workers apparently having left for the evening. These tall planks appear thin and toothpick-like at this distance, but mirror the tops of incomplete buildings in other photos, whose half-bricked facades reveal how gigantic some of these projects really are.
Noah Addis, "Construction on Farmland; Maryouteya, Cairo."
Perhaps the most impressive image overall is a shot of a lush, leafy agricultural expanse and a flat block of brick towering above it, other urban details lost in the hazy Egyptian atmosphere. This one photograph does well to summarize the contemporary climate of Cairo and of the global shift to cities at large. The show will be up until July 27, when there will also be an artist talk at the gallery at 1:30 p.m.
110 Church Gallery is located at 110 Church Street, right off of 2nd and Market, Philadelphia; email@example.com; heavybubble.com/110-church.
