GREENWICH, Connecticut, March 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Starwood Capital Group, a leading global private investment firm, announced today that it has entered, through a controlled affiliate, into a strategic partnership with AS Roma SPV, LLC, the majority shareholder of the AS Roma football club.
Through the acquisition of a minority stake in the club, Starwood Capital Group will have the ability to become a real estate capital partner in AS Roma's new stadium and adjacent mixed-use real estate complex in the Tor di Valle development. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
"Rome is one of the most important and exciting cities in the world. This transaction presents an opportunity to partner with AS Roma and its major stakeholders to develop one of the most thrilling real estate projects in Europe today," said Barry Sternlicht, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of Starwood Capital Group. "The site is superb but has been abandoned for some time as the old racetrack. It seems appropriate -- and, frankly, wonderful -- that as Italy comes out of its prolonged slowdown, we can invest our capital and be part of this redevelopment: a gleaming, new project that will be among the world's finest stadiums, and which we hope will be a symbol of the bright future of this incredible city, its citizens and its AS Roma fans. We look forward to enhancing our partnership with AS Roma through follow-on transactions in the coming years and participating in the resurgence of the Italian economy."
The partnership represents a strategic investment by Starwood Capital Group in Italian real estate, with a focus on the Rome mixed-use sector, as this market is beginning to stabilize and recover.
Tor di Valle is a minimum 250,000 square meter master site development housing the new stadium campus of AS Roma and an adjacent retail and entertainment district. The site is strategically located in the southwest of Rome and enjoys excellent access and visibility. It is immediately adjacent to and easily accessible via the A90 auto route midway between Fiumicino International Airport and Rome's city center, and also enjoys direct access to Rome's railway system. The project likely will be the largest real estate development in Rome in the coming years.
"We are excited to have such an experienced and strategic real estate investor like Starwood Capital Group onboard," said James J. Pallotta, President of AS Roma s.p.a. "Starwood Capital Group will add substantial value to our stadium development project, and we welcome their long-term commitment, which will further help establish AS Roma as one of the leading football clubs worldwide."
Founded in 1927, AS Roma is a three-time champion of Italy's Serie A and a two-time winner of the Italian Super Cup. The club currently sits in second place in the Serie A table.

Great article on our friend Spencer McClay by Christopher Rosacker (Feb. 23)!
I and many others have "rubbed shoulders" with Spence at St. Pats over the years. He is a fellow parishioner who charitably shares his dedication and ebullient personality as a cook, server, acolyte, dishwasher (as I am), and faithful "Sir Knight." We know Spence as a man of faith, joy energy and humility who is always nearby as the "go to guy" if a helping hand or the voice of experience is needed. We coworkers are always livened-up by his presence at the liturgical services and fund-raising events. It is an uplifting reflection on the Grass Valley community, as well, that Spence likes living here, and is doing so well. Artistic talent abounds here, and Spence stands out as one of our brighter stars.
We rejoice in his success, and thank him for the service to the parish that he cheerfully provides, and the enhancement to the community that results from his many involvements.

Yesterday was Turkey Day for most of us – or maybe ham. We'll also enjoy these same entrées for a few more meals. Then before we know it, we'll be doing it all over at Christmas. These are great meals. Many people, my husband included, probably enjoy cold turkey and dressing as much, if not more, than the original hot feast.
But a changeup can be welcome. I suggest my son David's take on ribs. They are all done in one dish in the oven. This melt –in-the-mouth delicious dish has an unusual sauce. Based on an Emeril recipe, it was a hit at a recent family tailgating.
It takes a lot of ingredients, but every one of them is worth it. And once assembled and completed, the recipe delivers wonderful smells and unforgettable taste. According to Jim, "Th best ribs I've ever had!"
Spicy Root Beer & Bourbon Glazed Baby Back Ribs
2 (12-ounce cans root beer) sugarless
2 T hot peper jelly
1 bay leaf
2 T steak sauce, plus ¼ cup more at the end
1 t hot sauce
6 whole cloves
1 stick cinnamon
1 orange, zested and juiced
1 lemon, zested and juiced
½ T vanilla
2 t bitters
1 cup bourbon
1 cup sugar (or substitute)
4-5 lbs ribs (2 full slabs, each cut in ½)
2 T kosher salt
1 T paprika
¾ t granulated garlic powder
1 ½ t granulated onion powder
1 t freshly ground back pepper
½ t cayenne pepper
½ cup chicken stock
Place glaze ingredients in 6-quart pot or larger, cook over medium-high heat. Bring to boil, stirring often to dissolve the sugar. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and allow to reduce to glaze consistency about 25-30 minutes longer. Remove from stove and strain through a fine mesh strainer. Reserve and keep warm, until ready to use.
Preheat oven to 250 degrees F
Place ribs on a sheet or baking sheet. In small mixing bowl combine kosher salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and cayenne pepper. Stir well to incorporate, and use 1 T of the spice rub to cover each of the ribs. Rub the mixture into the meat a allow it to sit undisturbed for at least 20 minutes.
Pour chicken stock into the sheet pan, cover with aluminum foil, making a tight seal. Place the sheet pan into the oven and bake for 1 ½ to 2 hours, or until the ribs are very tender.
Remove ribs from the over, discard the foil and the fat and oil from the sheet pan, and allow the ribs to cool for 15-20 minutes. Adjust the oven to broil setting, and position oven rack to the lowest rung. Brush ribs with a generous coating of the glaze, about 3 T per set of ribs. Place sheet pan back in oven, and broil until ribs are browned and caramelized, about 5 minutes. Remove ribs from oven and lay them on cutting board meaty side down. Use a sharp knife to cut the ribs apart. Serve with some of the leftover glaze on the side if desired.

ETC.: Busch has completed 93.1 percent (9,682) of the 10,404 total laps contested in 26 career starts at Dover. His average start is 11.2, while his average finish is a significantly worse 18.1. He also has a career-high (for a single track) six DNFs there.
24 JEFF GORDON, Chevrolet
Team: Hendrick Motorsports
WHERE HE STANDS: 8th, 42 points out of first place. Lost one spot last week.
DOVER RECORD: Finished third in the June race after a runner-up finish last September. Has four wins and 23 top-10 finishes including 16 top-five's in 41 starts.
LOOKING AHEAD: After two top-three finishes in the last two Dover races, Gordon can't wait to get to the high-speed facility. "I enjoy racing there because of the high speeds and the high-banked corners and the high-banked straightaways," said Gordon. "But you are constantly on edge and you can find yourself in trouble quickly - whether it be by yourself or in a group of cars. It seems like the groove can widen out there where we can run low, middle or high. You may have to search for a line or a groove that works best for your car. Another tricky aspect is the balance of the car can be different from one end of the track to the other."
LOOKING BACK: Gordon was leading the race when he headed for pit road during the fifth caution flag of the day. But he carried too much speed into his pit stall and slid over the line by maybe an inch or two. But it was enough for the NASCAR official to tell the team they needed to back up. The pit crew had to stop what it was doing, drop the jack and push the car back a few inches. But the time Gordon left his pit, he had fallen to 22nd place. He was only able to rally a few spots as he ended the day in 15th place. "Highly disappointed in myself," said a dejected Gordon. "I'll be disappointed until we get to Dover (for the next race). My car was a really good race car, but it wasn't a good passing car. We needed good track position and we had it until I messed up."
ETC.: Gordon knows his chances of winning a fifth championship took a real hit at Loudon. "For us, we have to be realistic and look at our points position (eighth, 42 points back with only eight races to go)," said Gordon. "Right now, we're not that far out of fourth (six points) and that's a realistic goal for us. Anything is possible. If we go on a tear, who knows? We're higher in the points that we were when we started this thing (13th). But..."
39 RYAN NEWMAN, Chevrolet
Team: Stewart-Haas Racing
WHERE HE STANDS: 9th, 47 points out of first place. Lost one spot last week.
DOVER RECORD: Three wins and 11 top-10 finishes in 23 starts.
LOOKING AHEAD: Newman calls Dover a "miniature Talladega, of sorts, because the speeds are so fast. It's narrow, it does cleanse itself to bottom. It's a timing event depending on where the crash happens. If it's in the middle of the back straightaway or going into the corner, everybody is going to wash back up across the race track and then come back across it in front of your nose, typically. We've seen 20-car pileups there into turn three. We've seen cars upside-down and some unexpected things in the past few years."
LOOKING BACK: After winning the pole position, the 51st of his career, Newman had visions of duplicating his July 2011 Loudon weekend when he followed his pole-winning run with a dominating victory. But instead he battled an ill-handling race car all afternoon as he finished a disappointing 16th. "I don't understand what happened with the car," said Newman. "It just never drove the same after we won the pole on Friday afternoon. Even in practice on Saturday. It just wasn't the day we expected."
ETC.: Newman calls Dover "pretty physically tough. It's not as physical as the road courses - I think they are the most physically demanding - but with the banking and 400 laps, you're just constantly maneuvering the race car. You get just a short distance on the straightaways to take a quick breath and get ready to go back at it in the next corner."
15 CLINT BOWYER, Toyota
Team: Michael Waltrip Racing
WHERE HE STANDS: 10th, 48 points out of first place. Lost one spot last week.
DOVER RECORD: Will be seeking his sixth straight top-nine finish.
LOOKING AHEAD: Bowyer hopes this is the week that he gets back on track in his bid to challenge for the championship. "Dover has been a really good track for us," said Bowyer. "We need a real good week to get back in the hunt, and Dover can be that place for us. There is still plenty of time left. We just need to start making some noise."
LOOKING BACK: Problems on pit road and an ill-timed caution flag left Bowyer in 17th place at the end of the day. "We stubbed out toe a little today," said Bowyer, who had expected to run up front all afternoon. "We just had a hard time in traffic and couldn't get through the corner like we would have liked. We gambled on track position and I thought we'd be fine, but that caution flag right after our pit stop killed us. It was a tough day overall for the team, but we aren't done yet. There is still some time in this deal and we plan to make some noise before it's over."
ETC.: Michael Waltrip continues to say "Clint did not spin on purpose (at Richmond). I stand behind him. We made some mistakes during the course of those final laps. We're sorry for that. We apologize to the fans. We totally understand their concerns. We will race ahead with much dignity and respect as humanely possible. No matter what happens in life or in sport, you learn from it. You become stronger, you become better. I think our organization has learned a great deal about going forward and being a strong team. I look forward to watching us grow from this unfortunate incident."

DeLAND—Stetson connected for a season-high 18 hits in the opener en route to an 18-9 victory, but Florida Gulf Coast rallied for a 4-3, extra inning win in the nightcap, as the Hatters and Eagles split their Atlantic Sun Conference doubleheader, Sunday at Melching Field.
FGCU's win in game two gave the league-leading Eagles (18-10 overall, 5-1 A-Sun) the series win.
Despite the heartbreaking loss in game two, Stetson head coach Pete Dunn was pleased with his team's efforts in rallying twice.
"We came back twice in two games and we haven't shown a propensity to do that this year," said Dunn. "We gave up the lead after having a big lead in the first game, and came back to tie and had a chance to win it twice in the second game. That's a giant step from where we were."
Stetson pounded FGCU's vaunted pitching staff in the opener, scoring its most runs in over two years. Patrick Mazeika led the charge with a 4-for-4 effort, while Garrett Russini, Kyle Zech and Kyle Pitts each had three hits. Russini and Pitts each knocked in four runs.
The Hatters jumped all over FGCU starter Nick Deckert in the first inning, scoring six runs, their highest-scoring inning of the year. Leading 1-0, Russini hit a three-run home run, and Mike Fernland later added a two-run double.
FGCU responded by scoring eight runs over the next three innings, taking an 8-6 lead with four runs in the fourth. Stetson battled back with three runs in the bottom of the fifth as Pitts laced a bases-loaded double to score all three base runners.
With Stetson leading 9-8, FGCU's Zack Tillery tied the game with a solo home run in the top of the sixth. But once again Stetson regrouped, scoring five runs in the bottom of the inning.
Darby McCormick, Russini, Zech, Pitts, and Kevin Fagan each had RBI singles in the sixth as the Hatters strung together five straight hits in the inning. When the hit parade ended, Stetson led 14-9.
The Hatters added a single run in the seventh on a Mazeika double, and three more runs in the eighth, including another RBI single for Mazeika, to make it 18-9.
Mitchell Jordan (2-3) picked up the win in relief, allowing one run on three hits in 2.1 innings of relief. The Stetson bullpen combined to allow one run on six hits in 5.1 innings of work in the opener.
Reliever Sterling Koerner (2-1) took the loss for the Eagles.
In game two the Hatters fell behind early, and rallied late to send the game into extra innings. But FGCU had the final rally to get the win in what was scheduled as a seven-inning game.
Tillery put FGCU on top 1-0 with an RBI double in the first inning. The Eagles took a 3-0 lead in the third as Clayton Bottomley hit a solo home run, and Nick Rivera added an RBI single.
The game remained 3-0 until the Hatters broke through in the bottom of the sixth. McCormick's one-out infield single scored Mazeika to make it 3-1, setting the stage for Stetson's rally in the seventh.
Down 3-1 in the final frame, Mitch Piatnik got the rally started for Stetson with a one-out single. He moved to second on a single by Tyler Bocock, and later scored on a single by Zech to make it 3-2. Mazeika followed with a sharp single up the middle to score Bocock and tie the game at 3-3.
The Hatters had two chances to win the game in the seventh. But Russini grounded out with Zech at second, and pinch-hitter Tanner Blackman grounded out with Zech at third to end the inning.
Stetson had another chance to win in the eighth. Jordan Schulz led off with a single but was erased on a sacrifice bunt attempt by Pitts. Pitts eventually moved to second on a ground out by Fagan, but Piatnik struck out swinging to end the threat.
FGCU put two of the first three batters on in the top of the ninth and Bottomley knocked in the winning run with a single to right, his fifth hit of the game.
The Hatters went down in order in the bottom of the ninth.
Stetson had 11 hits in the nightcap, with Mazeika going 4-for-5. In the two games on Sunday, Mazeika was 8-for-9 with three RBI and four runs scored. He reached base in 10 of 11 plate appearances in the doubleheader.'
Bottomley was 5-for-5 in game two, with three doubles, a homer and two RBI.
Taylor Cockrell (2-3) was the hard-luck loser for Stetson. The freshman scattered 10 hits over 8.1 innings and allowed four runs. He struck out three and walked three.
Tiller (2-2) picked up the win for FGCU, tossing two shutout innings of relief.
The Hatters open a two-game series with South Florida, 6:30 p.m., Tuesday at Melching Field.

BERLIN CENTER - Respect is something that is earned in high school football.
For some schools, it is naturally commanded from success in years past, and for others it is repeatedly earned year in and year out.
Western Reserve's string of recent success is something to be proud of, and now top-ranked and undefeated Mogadore awaits the Blue Devils on Friday night in the Div. VI, Region 21 semi-finals.
"We feel that we're earning our respect and different places like Mogadore, they've been good for so long they just get it," Western Reserve coach Andy Hake said. "We have to keep earning it. They have a right to have it, and when you do that for so long you have a right to have that respect."
The Wildcats boast a high-scoring offense that rolls up an average of 40 points a game. Mogadore has scored more than 30 points nine times this season, and piled up 60 or more on two occasions.
Last week against Steubenville Catholic Central, the Wildcats churned out 348 rushing yards en route to a 49-24 victory.
"You have to attack the box, and you've got to gang tackle," Hake said. "They have a running back and he's a real bad daddy, man. We've got to get on them early and we have to out-hit them. "
The "bad-daddy" would be Gary Strain, who rushed for three touchdowns against the Crusaders. He was joined by Brandon Berry, who also added three scores on the ground.
Eighth-seeded Central Catholic. hung tough with Mogadore throughout the first half, but a 28-point ourpouring in the third quarter saw the Wildcats pull away.
Stopping the run is key to avoiding such a surge, and conversely moving the ball on the ground is equally important.
"I think that's playoff football in Ohio - you've got to be able to stop the run and you've got to be able to run the football," Hake said. "I love going five-wide, but this time of the year the ball gets cold and hard. It's harder to throw now."
Western Reserve won't however be intimidated by unbeaten Mogadore. The Blue Devils are just a week removed from knocking off a perfect Shadyside squad on their home turf.
Reserve jumped out early and had to endure a late charge from a Shadyside team that had never lost a playoff game at Fleming Field.
"We moved the ball on them, but there was a period where they were really selling out to stop the run," Hake said. "But I'm not taking anything away from them. They were 10-0. Had they kicked our butts in the very beginning I don't think anyone would have said anything because they've done that all year."
The Blue Devils' Tim Cooper sealed the win with an interception on a last-second Hail Mary. Cooper came through for his team several times throughout the evening, adding a 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and a 58-yard run to put the Blue Devils inside the five-yard-line.
On the year, Cooper has 890 yards rushing on 150 carries for 11 touchdowns. He's also dangerous as a wide-out where he's tallied 482 yards on 36 catches and three more scores.
"Timmy Cooper is an exceptional player," Hake said. "He's as good as a player that we've had at Western Reserve since I've been here. He just comes up big every time we need him. We have a lot of guys lie that."
Dan Zilke rounds on the Reserve rushing attack (827 yards, 125 carries, nine TDs), and Dan Rosati has been equally as effective catching the ball (378 yards, 29 receptions, 1 TD). Nick Allison has also been efficient under center as a junior going 113-of-210 for 1,574 yards and 16 TDs to contrast just seven interceptions.
Zilke is the team's leading tackler (81), Jon Timko leads in sacks (10), and Cooper also has eight interceptions.
The win last Friday night was sweetened by the fact that Hake was able to share the accomplishment with his father, who serves on his staff and does a lot of film analysis for the team.
"My father has been riding us for years now and is probably one of the better coaches I've been around," Hake said. "He's a real slick guy and it's really great to have him around and be a part of it. I'm blessed to have him around to coach with me and enjoy it. It's been a heck of a ride."
Hake and his staff attempt to instill a mindset that beating someone begins with a belief that one can simply achieve it.
"You can't worry about playing Mogadore, you can't worry about playing Shadyside," Hake said. "You're playing 11 guys. They're coached well, they're tough kids. We know all that. So let's go out there and beat them."
Western Reserve and Mogadore kick off at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Ravenna High School.

Editor's Note: The following is a press release issued by the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business.
LOGAN, UT – Stephen M.R. Covey, author of the best-selling book "The SPEED of Trust," will speak at a Special Commemorative Dean's Convocation at Utah State University Huntsman School of Business in honor of his father's 80th birthday Oct. 24.
Covey is the son of Stephen R. Covey, the Huntsman Presidential Chair in Leadership who died in July 2012 due to complications after a biking accident earlier in the year. Stephen M.R. Covey led the strategy that drove the sales of his father's book, "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People," into the millions. CEO Magazine called the book one of the two most influential business books of the 20th Century. He will speak in honor of his father, at 11:30 a.m., in the George S. Eccles Business Building in the Orson A. Christensen Auditorium (room 215). The convocation is open to the public and free.

When he was named CEO of the Covey Leadership Center, the company was valued at $2.4 million. Within three years, shareholder value grew to $160 million, partly through a merger he organized with then Franklin Quest to form FranklinCovey.

Hamburg Central School Board members plan to meet Friday morning to approve the teacher evaluation plan, just seven days before the plan has to be approved by New York State.
Friday's special meeting will take place only if teachers approve the plan Thursday, Superintendent Steven A. Achramovitch said Tuesday night.
School districts must have an approved evaluation plan in place by Jan. 17, or they will lose their share of this fiscal year's increase in state aid. Achramovitch has said the aid for Hamburg, which is one of the last districts in the state to submit a plan, is about $450,000.
The district submitted the unsigned plan Friday to expedite the process, Board Vice President Thomas Flynn said in a statement at Tuesday's School Board meeting.
"It has been the intention of the district to wait until our plan was fully approved by the Hamburg Teachers Association and the Board of Education, however, as the time frame narrowed, the initial submission could not wait any longer," he said.
The superintendent told The Buffalo News that the state will not formally review the unsigned plan, and wants the final, approved version.
"We're hoping everything goes through, we'll submit Friday morning again," Achramovitch said. "I'm hoping that they're looking at it. My feeling is they have it, they're looking at it, and they'll be ready for comments as soon as I submit it."
The state has said it will expedite reviews, but that it usually takes four to six weeks to evaluate a plan.
A committee of administrators and teachers has been working on the plan for months, and another committee put finishing touches on the plan in late December.
School Board member Holly Balaya urged teachers to consider the plan. She said if union members are not happy with it, they should change it next year.
"It's new to all districts," she said. "Have faith and try and realize … unfortunately, we've come down to a deadline and if we don't pass this, we're in trouble."
Board member Sally Stephenson said once language is put into a contract, it will be difficult to change it, but Achramovitch said the teacher evaluation plan is effective only for this school year, and then the language expires.
The board approved the evaluation plan for administrators Tuesday night.
The Annual Professional Performance Review, or APPR, governs how teachers and principals are evaluated under new state requirements. On the 100-point evaluation, 60 points are determined through more traditional, subjective means, primarily classroom observations; 20 points on student growth on state assessments; and 20 points on measures of student growth that are determined by the local district.
Teachers Association President John Mrozek said teachers will meet this afternoon to discuss the final plan, and ballots will be cast during school Thursday.
If the union does not approve the plan, the superintendent said, "I think we'll go back to the table and figure out what we have to do next."

Prior to the movie trailer premiere of "CBGB" on Entertainment Tonight this week, USA Today published a sneak peek article about "CBGB" and spoke exclusively to Rupert Grint about his role.
The complete article can be read here. Some choice quotes:
"I have always wanted to play a punk," says Grint, 24, who stars as rocker Cheetah Chrome in the historical drama CBGB (opening in limited markets Oct. 11). "It was really good fun."
"It was a real buzz. We actually felt like we were in a band, which is something I have always wanted to do, secretly," Grint says. "It was nice to have a little taste of that."
There is also a photo gallery with some stills from the movie, and additional quotes from Rupert:
Grint, a fan of the music, says he also loved the fashion. Even the dog collar. "Weirdly, I kind of got used to the collar. I kind of felt naked when I wasn't wearing it."
Justin Bartha as Stiv Bators, the lead singer of The Dead Boys. On-screen bandmate Grint says, "We just played the music really loud, and we'd just go for it. And we'd get into all sort of disgusting things. It was a real buzz."
Rupert Grint says Cheetah Chrome was on set for 'CBGB,' in which has has a cameo. "I spent a lot of time with him," Grint says. "He had loads of stories. I could sense the passion."

quote Dantess26i agree with all except ocelot. ocelot joined foxhound sometime after the death of big boss. hey may make another phone call or two to major zero or something but ocelot and big boss were never directly involved with eachother on the same team per se... unless they decide to change that in this game.i'd rather have a few characters that are deeply involved than loads of side-characters with cameo appearances!!!
I hope Null is there, just for novelty. We need to know more about his past. Ocelot may also be involved somewhere. These characters need to come together to create the basis of Outer Heaven, so where better to bring this era of MGS to a close???
I also hope Rising will explain more about Grey-Fox (after all, that image of Raiden with brown eyes... well how is it Raiden? My bet is on it being Grey Fox, and thus some kind of flash-back in Rising may give us the final missing link to Peace Walker? I can't wait!)
I still think those footprints are either a raptor or Metal gear MK.1!

The Stetson lacrosse team lost its 2014 home opener to Oregon as the visiting Ducks came away with a 20-3 victory on Monday evening at the Athletic Training Center.
"The positives I can take away from this game were that we had three freshmen contribute with goals or assists," Stetson head coach Nicole Moore said. "Also, Caili Guilday had a very challenging yet successful night in the goal."
Oregon (1-0) came out of the gates on fire, scoring two goals in the first one minute and two seconds of the contest. The Ducks continued to roll through the first half, putting 12 in the back of the net before Stetson picked up its first score.
The Hatters (0-2) scored their first goal of the season when freshman Jill Chiachetti beat Oregon goalkeeper Carol Federighi on a free position attempt to make it 12-1 with just 2:13 to play in the first half.
Stetson cut the deficit to 12-2 before the break with a second straight score. Freshman Julia Lozano scored off an assists from sophomore Mary Kate O'Sullivan with 47 seconds to play in the half.
The Ducks continued their scoring streak in the second half with seven goals in the first 25:11 of the period. Both teams scored late, as sophomore Melanie Fredericks put one away from freshman Lindsay Summers, and Oregon made the final score 20-3 with a score in the final seconds.
Carly O'Connell led the Ducks with five goals, while Nikki Puszcz added four and Courtney Valdez chipped in with three. Shannon Propst was the playmaker for the Ducks, assisting on nine Oregon goals on the day.
Lozano and Chiachetti scored their first career goals for the Hatters, while Summers recorded her first career assist.
Sophomore Caili Guilday recorded 16 saves playing all 60 minutes in goal for the Hatters. Summers led Stetson with four draw controls, three ground balls, and two caused turnovers in the defeat.
"Every time we step on the field we get better, mainly because we are still so young," Moore said. "We still need to focus on the fundamentals, our composure, and working together as a team from end line to end line."
Stetson will continue its five-game home-stand on Thursday, Feb. 13. The Hatters host Colorado at 7:00 p.m. from the Athletic Training Center.

Open business model for the modern age
Openness in the workplace changes everything
I love my job. I don't know a lot of people who can say that, but I really do love my job and I've been thinking about why exactly that is a lot lately.
Often when talking to friends and family and colleagues in the library science field I find that the number one complaint boils down to the closed/boxed-in nature of their jobs. The other day I spoke with a friend who shared her frustrations over the fact that her employer wouldn't let her step out of her defined role to assist in other areas of the business. She had other jobs before this one and knew a lot that would help in new efforts the company was pursuing, but she wasn't allowed to consult because it was outside of her job description. Another friend constantly talks to me about how he could offer so much more if people would just include him in the discussions that happen before decisions are made.
Where I work, I don't have these kinds of limitations—no one I work with does. Instead of employees, we're all teammates and our expertise is valued and called upon all the time. We understand that each of us has experiences in life and in our careers that have given us unique insights that could help. So, just because someone is a developer doesn't mean that they can't contribute to marketing efforts. And just because someone is a trainer doesn't means they can't also spearhead the website SEO.
I read Open Leadership a few years back and it really stuck with me. I find that too many of my friends and family are working for companies run by people who follow an older model of management: a top down approach that is very rigid. The kind of model where people think that the entry-level employee couldn't possibly have anything to contribute to the managerial staff. I can't tell you how many times I've heard people say to me, "You don't understand, that's just not the way it works" when I suggest that they just go to management and explain that they have something to contribute. This kind of model causes companies to stagnate.
Charlene Li says in Open Leadership:
The first step is recognizing that you are not in control—your customers, employees, and partners are. If you are among the many executives who long for the "good ol' days" when rules and roles were clear, indulge yourself in that kind of thinking for just a few more minutes—then it's time to get to work. This is a fad that will not fade, but will only grow stronger, with or without you.
I love that! I think that the open/collaborative model is not only here to stay in business, but way more efficient than closed efforts.

This is one of the reasons that I love working for a small company. You have more collaboration and tend to wear many different hats out of necessity. It's a great environment for learning new skills and there is a greater feeling of importance.
Great post Nicole, thanks for sharing.
I find aspects like openness, sharing, collaboration to be important in my job environment also. I one day hope to work at/for a company based on open source. At the moment, I'm actually changing jobs in a few weeks, hoping to gain more of the above aspects.
You also might enjoy the article in Harvard Business Review's May issue, "Creating the Best Workplace on Earth".
"You also might enjoy the article in Harvard Business Review's May issue, "Creating the Best Workplace on Earth". "
I'd like to read an article on "Creating the Best Life on Earth", where work and workplace, and business is considered to be a means of securing the Best Life, rather than a means of securing that Biggest Business.
If one were to think this way, I'd expect a lot of the good aspects of openness in the workplace would be part of the answer. Unfortunately that's not how our world works --- openness in the workplace will be adopted if and only if that's what makes the "biggest Business" .. and if boring narrow soul-destroying jobs are what makes the biggest business, that's what people will have to put up with.

The seeming vagaries of the transcriptome may become more explicable, thanks to validation efforts that are distinguishing true RNA editing events from artifacts. One such effort, made by researchers centered at Brown University, involved the painstaking, genome-wide validation of 1,799 RNA editing sites in Drosophila melanogaster, plus the prediction of another 1,782 sites. The result: a master list of 3,581 sites in which adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is accomplished by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADAR).
The researchers used the tried-and-true, decades-old Sanger method of sequencing to double-check all the candidate editing sites that they had found using the high-throughput technology called single-molecule sequencing. They compared the sequenced RNA of a population of fruit flies to their sequenced DNA and to the RNA of another population of flies engineered to lack the ADAR editing enzyme. By comparing these three sequences they were able to see the RNA editing changes that could not be attributed to anomalies in DNA (that is, mutations, or single-nucleotide polymorphisms) and that never occurred in flies incapable of editing.
The researcher team published its results in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology on September 29. The team's paper, "Genome-wide analysis of A-to-I RNA editing by single-molecule sequencing in Drosophila," presents a discovery pipeline that has demonstrated an accuracy of about 87%. According to the team, this accuracy is sufficient to reveal the global patterns underlying biological functions of RNA editing in their Drosophila model.
"Drosophila serves as a model for all the organisms where people are studying transcriptomes," said the paper's corresponding author Robert Reenan, Ph.D., professor of biology in the department of molecular biology, cell biology, and biochemistry at Brown. "But in the early days of RNA editing research, the catalog of these sites was determined completely by chance—people working on genes of interest would discover a site. The number of sites grew slowly."
Several more recent attempts to catalog RNA editing sites have yielded larger catalogs, but those contained many errors (the paper provides a comparison between the new list and previous efforts such as ModENCODE).
"For anyone who wants to do the same experiment under the same conditions, the sites [that we validated] should be there," said co-author and postdoctoral researcher Yiannis Savva, Ph.D. "In other papers, they just did sequencing to say there is an editing site there, but when you check, it's not there."
When they examined the implications of their results, the research team arrived at several insights. One was that a considerable amount of editing occurs in sections of RNA that do not code for making proteins. Editing is concentrated in a small number of RNAs, raising the question of what accounts for that selectivity.
Where editing is found, the researchers discovered, there is usually more alternative splicing, which means the body is more often assembling a different recipe from its genetic instructions to make certain proteins.
The researchers also found that the RNAs that are most heavily edited tend to be expressed to a lesser extent, decreasing how often they are put into action in the body.
RNA editing helps explain why organisms are even more different from each other—and from themselves at different times—than DNA differences alone would suggest. "RNA editing has emerged as a way to diversify not just the proteome but the transcriptome overall," Dr. Reenan said.
Although the editing changes considered in the study may seem subtle, they are significant because they change how genetic instructions in DNA are put into action in the fly body, affecting many fundamental functions including proper neural and gender development. In humans, perturbed RNA editing has been strongly implicated in the diseases ALS and Acardi-Gutieres disease.

But who recaptured the '80s era of legwarmers, headbands and big hair the best (not counting Keith Urban, who opened the show sporting a clip-on mullet that had Ryan Seacrest calling him "Billy Ray Urban")?
Here are the singers who had "The Eye of the Tiger" and those who were more "Borderline."
The Eye of the TigerRocker Caleb Johnson finally softened it up, singing a powerfully reverential version of "Faithfully" filled with fireworks (and Urban holding up his iPhone "lighter" in admiration).
"I have been waiting for that subtlety. You did it," said Harry Connick Jr., while Jennifer Lopez called it "amazing," saying it's "no small task to take on Steve Perry."
Although the judges weren't unanimous in their praise of Alex Preston and Jena Irene's reimagined '80s tunes, their unique takes were still standouts.
Preston's guitar-string-heavy reinvention of "Every Breath You Take" into a sweet love song had Lopez missing the "soul of the song," but Urban and Connick raving.
"You grab my attention like that," Urban said, snapping his finger, adding his version was a "bold dismantling."
Irene reinvented Joan Jett's "I Love Rock 'n' Roll," starting the rock song slowly on a piano before turning it into a bluesy number.
"I love the originality you always bring," said Urban, a take with which Connick agreed. "You're trying and twisting and manipulating these arrangements."
However, Connick and Lopez, who said the arrangement "languished" in the middle, told her to ignore the advice of Idol producers and do her own thing on stage.
BorderlineAfter last week's dramatic save, the judges felt Sam Woolf's stripped down version of "Time After Time" was vocally strong but again lacked connection.
"Look up young Ricky Nelson on YouTube," instructed Connick. "Watch what he does."
Connick said Dexter Roberts earned himself a free week to "rock out" after last week's performance, and the country crooner's version of "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" needed something "completely unexpected," according to Urban.
Malaya Watson took on "Through the Fire," and the judges agreed with Connick's assessment that although "not a lot of people that can hit that Chaka note in full voice … the entire performance was geared up for that moment."
Jessica Meuse sounded strong but looked uncomfortable without her guitar singing "Call Me," and Urban said her performances were akin to being "close to the door, ready to go into the party."
Lopez called C.J. Harris's version of "Free Fallin'" "shaky" and Connick gave him yet another lesson on pitch, although Urban called it a "great rendition" due to the "survivor tone to your voice."
Results air Thursday (9 p.m. ET) on Fox.

I attended the 2015 NRF BIG Show in New York a few weeks ago, and while retailers made up the bulk of the 33,000 attendees, solutions providers and industry professionals alike filled the halls of the Javits Center to learn more about the various topics facing retailers today. Chief among those topics — EMV adoption — also affects hospitality. Here's a recap of a session we attended that provides insight into what small to midsize retailers can expect from EMV. I think you'll find it helpful as the October deadline approaches.
Deloitte's recent insightful report, Hospitality 2015: Game Changers Or Spectators?, is a crystal clear look at what the hospitality industry should be doing in 2015 and beyond to bolster customer engagement. Deloitte reports that there are new rules to the game, and those companies that want to win had better restructure their bench.

Its mission is to offer a richer movie-going experience to the local residents of Ogden by pairing plush amenities such as leather reclined seating with gourmet food and drinks. As a new venue, Movie Grille wanted a modern point of sale system that could manage their physical operation while providing robust analytics.
When it comes to payment data security, what you don't know certainly can hurt you. And when you operate several retail stores—each with multiple payment and other network-attached devices—there's plenty you don't know at any given point.
For merchants, the need for a reliable POS system is irrefutable. They speed up the check out process, efficiently manage inventory, and monitor sales so that business owners can keep a pulse on what is happening within their daily operations. Unfortunately, POS Systems can also potentially require a good amount of costly upkeep. With the myriad of POS options available in today's marketplace, selecting the right POS system to meet your business needs can be a daunting task.
Digital Menu Boards Prove to be the Necessary Solution.

The past week or so Adelaide and I have been sticking real close to home - We've been discovering all the ins and outs of potty training. Usually during my days with Addie I try to get her occupied, and sneak in a little bit of work whenever I can. But not this week. Frightened of messing my daughter up with my lack of consistancy and schedule, I've pretty much put my work and anything else aside in order to focus on her and the toilet.
All the while at home I've been keeping us busy with lots of little projects - cleaning the house together, baking cookies and pumpkin loaf, moving furniture around. Addie and I are nesting together. We've also made lots of little tags up, which is one of my projects that Adelaide can actually - kind of - help me out with. She likes to sort out colours, help punch the holes and set the eyelets with the little hammer. it is painfully slow going for me, but she is so persistant and determined to help and do whatever I'm doing. She has an awful lot of focus for a two year old.
So the toilet training is going amazingly well, better than I ever expected, and I'm really really proud of her. She's pretty much going on her own and is accident free at home now, and so we've been going on little diaper-less journeys farther and farther away from home.
Today we headed out together, into the forest to forage for autumn treasures. (And for Addie to practice peeing in the bushes) We had so much fun together, chattering away and giggling like fools together in the forest. Most often, my best moments ever are the very simplest ones spent together with her. It really doesn't take much to have a happy kid (and mama).
I can see that little daughter is becoming, just a bit little more each day, her very own person. I feel like often I can talk to her on the same level now, explain things to her straight up and she really seems to respond to this. But it makes my heart ache, knowing that these days with her are not going to last forever. And I know it. I wish that there was a way that I could bottle these times up and keep them forever with me for always.

A Colorado Parks and Wildlife officer put down a 2-year-old male black bear Monday because it has been hanging out with the wrong crowd � humans.
�I don�t like to put down a bear any time,� said Patt Dorsey, the agency area wildlife manager in Durango. �But the potential for serious trouble was too great.�
If winsome can describe a bear, this guy fit the bill. Dorsey said he was cinnamon-colored instead of the more dominant brown coloring, small for his age and cuddly looking.
�But he�s been seen in the area where he was found today many, many times,� Dorsey said. �This means he was comfortable around people, and he was not afraid of the wildlife officer. Normally a bear would be nervous and huffing around people.�
The bear, in a tree in the east 500 block of First Street, had drawn a crowd when the wildlife officer arrived with a trap.
The chance of successfully relocating such a bear is slim, Dorsey said. Once grown, and unafraid of people, he would become a menace, she said.
�We not only worry about aggressive bears but also about bears who are fearless around people,� Dorsey said.
When bad behavior � getting accustomed to people and their food � gets positive reinforcement, there can be only trouble ahead, she said.
�People could help us � and bears � by not allowing them to get into garbage cans and bird or dog food, Dorsey said.
Bryan Peterson, who founded Bear Smart Durango in 2003 to educate people about living in bear country, said Dorsey was absolutely correct.
�I can�t add anything,� Peterson aid. �This is the dark side of attracting bears.�
In 2010, 28 bears were killed by vehicles, put down as nuisances by wildlife officers, shot by landowners or died from electrocution, Peterson said.
The number that died in the same circumstance in 2011 was 34.
The bear put down Monday the first such incident this season, Dorsey said.

Two teens from the Altoona area will get some air time and public recognition when they compete in a talent contest May 18 and 19.
Jared Peterman, 16, of Altoona and Noah Hoover, 14, of Duncansville are finalists in the senior division of the seventh annual Christian Talent Contest. The boys formed the duo Jared & Noah after Jared's father learned about the contest on radio station RevFM in State College.
The boys only have been performing as a duo since the end of March to prepare for the contest. They originally met in the winter of 2011 at a retreat held at Camp Mantowagon in Saxton, but went their separate ways until becoming members of a newly formed band this winter.
Article Photos
(Mirror photo by Patrick Waksmunski) Jared Peterman (left) of Altoona and Noah Hoover of Duncansville will record a song that will be played on radio station RevFM as they compete in the final round of the Christian Talent Contest. Each finalist will be given a code and listeners may vote for their favorite performance by texting their choice to the radio station.
When they met at the retreat, they were going to different churches and youth groups. Now they attend the same church, Faith Bible Church in Bellwood, but belong to different youth groups.
They also attend different schools. Jared is a junior at Altoona Area High School and Noah is an eighth-grader at Spring Cove Middle School.
The other two members of the band are Jason Snowberger, 38, and Zachary Shannon, 20.
Snowberger is youth pastor at Calvary Baptist Church, where the band practices, and Shannon is a college student. Snowberger is a vocalist and Shannon plays drums.
Neither qualifies to perform in the talent contest because they are older than 19.
So Jared, a guitarist who shares lead vocal duties with Snowberger, and Noah, a background singer and guitarist, decided to team up for the contest. They traveled to State College on April 18 for the preliminary competition where they sang a cappella and got the nod for the next round held April 25 in Milton.
"It was really cool," said Noah of the second facility, the Well Coffee House at Christ Wesleyan Church.
"We performed before about 200 people," Jared said.
The teens said there were 26 competitors from Shamokin Dam, Lewisburg and State College in the semifinal round where only three acts would be named to the finals.
"In the first round, we were really excited that we got through [the competition]," Noah said. "The second one was a lot of relief. When they announced the first two people [eligible for the semifinals], we thought we did not make it. Then, [the judges] announced a tie between us and another group."
"I just hugged Noah," Jared said. "I was pretty happy."
The winner of the contest will be determined in a format similar to "American Idol," only on the radio.
Listeners on Rev FM (102.7 in Altoona) will vote for their favorite contestant by texting a code repeated on the radio station May 18 and 19. The four finalists will record their songs May 17 at WGRC studios in Lewisburg. WGRC and a third station in Shamokin Dam also will air the finalists' music.
Throughout the competition, Jared & Noah have been performing their own version of David Crowder Band's "How He Loves Us."
It can be previewed by going to www.soundcloud.com and entering petey peterman in the search. Other recordings by Jared are there, including several he wrote.
The contest is sponsored by the program "Get Real with Dave 'n' Mike" that airs three days a week on WGRC.
The winner will appear on the talk show, perform at WGRC Day Aug. 9 at Knoebel's Amusement Park and receive a one song recording session with Songcrafters Studio in Beavertown.

Internet shorthand used to represent 'your mileage may vary' meaning 'how far you will be able to go depends on (usually external) factors relating to yourself', such as locality. Often used in deal forums to indicate that the OP (original poster) was able to complete the deal but it is unlikely or uncertain that others will be able to do the same. Can also be used to represent 'your market may vary' which is more appropriate for internet deal forums and more easily translates to some, especially people foreign to the english language. Often used in internet forums to indicate the likelyhood of something happening is uncertain.

When you're pedalling about your city, soaking up the fabric of life on your urban landscape, it's nice to know your ass is sitting fine and dandy upon a groovy bicycle saddle. Here's a little guide to some of the derriere options available to cycle chicistas and chicistos.
We heart this seat. The heart is a major cultural symbol in Denmark. They have featured country's coat of arms for centuries, we hang hearts on our christmas trees and we even have hearts on our coins:
Don't get us wrong. Vintage saddles have a charm that is almost impossible to replicate, but sometimes you just need to funk things up a bit.
Ride on a rainbow or on flames of passion. Whatever works for you.
Ride on delicate pink or ride right on target.
Some Danish bicycle brands are now producing bike bits that match, like the seat and handlebar grips from Taarnby Bikes, at left. At right, you can't often go wrong with a classic Brooks saddle, which are all the rage in Copenhagen. Classic leather that ends up fitting your bottom and your bottom alone. Now THAT'S personalising supreme.
If you and your bottom fancy the saddle you have now, then you can always use a seat cover for added spice and style. Fluffy or grassy are only two options out of kabillions.
Funk up your seat with colourful, kitsch colours or feel the urban beat with a seat like the one on the famous Copenhagen Drum Bicycle.
You can choose from a fine selection of animals to keep your saddle dry in the rain or snow.
In Copenhagen many people shove a plastic bag under their saddle and pull it out if the saddle is wet. It's a simple, no-nonsense approach to keep bottoms dry.
The great thing in this city is that if you don't want to use a plastic bag or can't be bothered buying a saddle cover, you'll be given free ones several times a year.
Because there are so many bicycles in the world's cycling capital, advertising printed on saddle covers are an effective marketing tool and you'll often see bike racks where all the bikes have been given a free saddle cover for this or that product.
Here's one from a political party wanting safer routes to school on the left and the text on the right reads, "Does my ass look big on this?!". It's an advert for a light cream cheese.
These two are for a new organic soft drink and a university, respectively.
Lest we forget the artsy/crafty option. Crochet your own bicycle seat cover and create your own personal style, like this one from Carina's Craft Blog.
We have some more accessory ideas in our Cycle Chic Guide to Choosing a Bicycle post from a while back.
