ANN ARBOR, Mich. - More misery for Michigan basketball.
The Wolverines were barred from the next postseason and put on 312 years' probation by the NCAA on Thursday for a booster's payments to players dating to the Fab Five era.
The team also will lose one of its 13 annual scholarships for four years, beginning in 2004-05.
The case stems from an investigation involving now-deceased Michigan booster Ed Martin, who said he paid players, including current Sacramento star Chris Webber.
"This is one of the most egregious violations of NCAA laws in the history of the organization," NCAA Committee on Infractions chairman Thomas Yeager said.
"The reputation of the university, the student-athletes and the coach as a result of the basketball team's accomplishments from 1992 through 1998 were a sham."
Michigan held itself out of NCAA tournament play last season, and the NCAA infractions committee called the university's self-imposed penalties "meaningful" but not enough. The Wolverines were barred from the NCAA tournament and NIT next season, but the Big Ten can decide whether to allow the school into the league tourney.
"We have always accepted responsibility for the concerns raised by the NCAA and by the infractions committee in its report," Michigan president Mary Sue Coleman said.
"We own the wrongdoing, and we own the responsibility."
She said the school will appeal the postseason ban.
Martin said he gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to former Wolverines basketball players while they were in high school and college.
He died in February - on the same day school officials met with the infractions committee.
Michigan hoped the NCAA would accept its self-imposed sanctions, including the removal of four banners from Crisler Arena and any pictures, words or records in printed materials involving Webber, Maurice Taylor, Robert Traylor and Louis Bullock; forfeits of 112 regular-season and tournament victories from five seasons, plus its victory in the 1992 NCAA semifinals; the return of $450,000 to the NCAA from tarnished postseason appearances.
After pleading guilty a year ago to conspiracy to launder money, Martin told the federal government that he lent $616,000 to Webber, Taylor, Traylor and Bullock.
Webber is to face trial in July on charges of obstruction of justice and lying to a federal grand jury about Martin.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama --The Birmingham City Council this morning is set to vote on nearly $1.8 million in incentives for a Crestwood shopping center.
Owners of the Crestwood Festival plan $1.78 million in improvements following earlier renovations and want city assistance.
Under the proposal, the city would rebate up to 50 percent in sales tax at around $356,800 annually for five years.
Canadian investors bought what was a struggling shopping center in April 2012, when the property had a 36 percent vacancy rate.
Since then, the commercial area has strengthened its position with $3.2 million in upgrades, and now boasts nearly full occupancy.
Mark Gold acquired the shopping mall with partner Skyline International Development Inc. and changed the name to Crestwood Festival Center from Eastwood Festival Centre.
Gold later acquired the struggling Grants Mill Station shopping center in Irondale, with plans for a similar commercial revival.

Even as most stocks fell in trading on Friday, the S&P 500 Index (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC ) was able to log a remarkable seventh-straight week of gains. Alas, that was not the case with these three companies today, as a variety of factors combined to send them spiraling downwards to the undesirable depths of the index.
The first most violently spiraling stock of the day was oil and natural gas company Apache (NYSE: APA ) , which fell 4.3% on the day -- something that's liable to happen when companies report terribly disappointing results. Oddly enough, the energy sector was the only one in the S&P to post losses today. Apache sure did its part in the decline, though, as investors showed their disapproval of management's decision to sell $2 billion in unspecified assets.
Frontier Communications (NASDAQ: FTR ) , which won't get a chance to potentially disappoint investors until next week, dropped 3.4% on Friday, as the telecom industry faces cash flow problems that threaten to hit income investors. Fellow local telecom CenturyLink just cut its dividend and, with an annual dividend of nearly 9% at current levels, investors are understandably worried that Frontier's payout could take further hits. Citigroup even downgraded the stock yesterday on cash flow concerns.
My, how fickle the market can be. It loves you one day, and hates you the next. Literally, in fact, in the case of First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR ) , which only yesterday was winning like Charlie Sheen in a YouTube rant, earning itself a spot as one of Today's 3 Best Stocks after an analyst upgrade. No such luck today, as the solar module producer fell 2.4% on profit-taking. But with a 1.41 beta, First Solar shares are roughly 40% more volatile than the market, so exaggerated day-to-day swings aren't anything new here.
Investors and bystanders alike have been shocked by First Solar's precipitous drop over the last 12 months, and now the stakes have never been higher for the company. Are they done for good, or ready for a rebound? If you're looking for continuing updates and guidance on the company whenever news breaks, we've created a brand new report that details every must know side of this stock.

English Premier League official app on Apple TV? Wouldn't it be great to be just two clicks away from fantastic games like yesterday's City's impressive victory against Liverpool? Daily Mail reports that Apple is considering bidding for the TV rights to show live Premier League football. The Mail claims that "the Premier League is seen as the type of premium content that will help establish Apple TV in the UK and boost iPad sales." According to DM, the three certain bidders will be Sky (who paid £1.6billion for their current packages), ESPN and Al Jezeera. The Mail also suggests that Google could be interested in the EPL rights for its Google TV, which is due to launch in the UK and Europe this year.
Little by little the apps are coming to the Apple TV. Hacker and iOS developer Steven Troughton-Smith and a hacker called TheMudKip have made it to run iPhone and iPad apps on an Apple TV 2, jailbroken with Seas0nPass. Using @TheMudkip's MobileX window manager for iOS, and @chpwn's MobileLaunchpad launcher to go with it, they managed to get multiple iOS apps running natively on Apple TV, without AirPlay. Later on, they even figured out a way to run iPad applications at a full 720p resolution.

on February 18, 2013 - 5:05 PM
Dear Abby: I am a woman who is more than 50 pounds overweight. It didn't happen overnight, and I completely understand that I am the only person to blame for it. I gained the weight because of years of unhealthy eating, lack of exercise and the birth of my two daughters over a period of six years.
Recently I decided to do something about it. I took the initiative, adopted a sensible diet and have started walking two to three miles a day with my friend, "Shannon."
Abby, on almost every occasion, Shannon and I are made fun of as we walk. It's embarrassing and extremely discouraging. We realize we are overweight. We don't need people calling attention to us or making fun of the "fat girls."
Won't you please let your readers know that struggling with weight loss is hard enough without adding the fear and anxiety of being made a laughingstock while exercising?
– Losing Slowly in Ohio
Dear Losing Slowly: I applaud you for recognizing you had a challenge and rising (literally) to meet it. When I see someone who's carrying extra weight walking or working out at a gym, what comes to mind is, "There's a person who is doing something positive about his or her problem."
Because a jackass brays doesn't mean you have to take it to heart. The individuals making those unkind remarks are trying to make themselves feel superior by putting you down. Please don't let it discourage you. You're on the right track.
Reader should get a grip
Dear Abby: The adage, "If you don't have anything nice to say ..." is easier said than done. When I am tired or stressed, I have a tendency to be less tolerant of others' quirks, and sometimes I voice my annoyance.
While my opinions do have a basis, I sometimes feel guilty about insulting or hurting the person's feelings. I envy those who are strong enough to not allow the stress of certain situations to affect them.
I have never been a believer in "killing them with kindness" because that seems to enable their behavior. My intolerance is probably due to unhappiness about my own life. So how do I allow these annoyances to roll off my back and bite my tongue?
– Can't Tolerate Fools in Des Moines
Dear Can't Tolerate Fools: One way to do that would be to remind yourself that the more you take your unhappiness out on those around you, the more you will isolate yourself.
When you are tired or stressed, and before shooting off your mouth, ask yourself: Is it true? Is it kind? Is it helpful? And if what you were about to say is not all three, bite your tongue, zip your lip, or walk away until you get a grip.

Stephen Zunes : Africa (sub-Saharan)
Mandela's utilitarianism and the struggle for liberation
13 December 2013
"Mandela was a great leader because he recognized that the movement had become a civil insurrection, a largely nonviolent struggle. A great leader is one who recognizes where the movement is and leads them accordingly, not one who says, 'Do it my way!'"
The Mali Blowback: More to Come?
1 February 2013
The French-led military offensive in its former colony of Mali has pushed back radical Islamists and allied militias from some of the country's northern cities, freeing the local population from repressive Taliban-style totalitarian rule. The United States has backed the French military effort by transporting French troops and equipment and providing reconnaissance through its satellites […]
Sudan's protests become civil insurrection
6 July 2012
A growing anti-government movement consisting of nonviolent demonstrations as well as scattered rioting is beginning to threaten the Sudanese dictatorship of Omar al-Bashir, an indicted war criminal, who has ruled this large North African nation for twenty-three years. Beginning as protests against strict austerity measures imposed three weeks ago, the chants of the protesters have escalated to "the people want to overthrow the regime," the line heard in recent uprisings in other Arab countries, including Egypt, Yemen, Libya, Bahrain and Syria.
Mali's Struggle: Not Simply of Their Own Making
9 May 2012
In examining the political crises which have gripped Mali in recent months, it is important not to fall into simplistic analyses of dysfunctional or "failed" African states. Indeed, the Malian people have repeatedly demonstrated their ability to mobilize civil society and build stable democratic governance despite a history of enormous poverty, ethnic divisions, and foreign intervention.
A Tale of Two Human Rights Awardees
2 December 2009
I have worked with both Jenni Williams and Aminatou Haidar. They are both deserving of the RFK Prize, and they both deserve the support of the U.S. government as well. A test of a government's sense of justice is whether it sees human rights as a universal principle or simply as a political tool to advance its foreign policy agenda. The Obama administration appears to have opted for the latter. It is easy to support human rights activists like the women of WOZA, since they are battling against a regime opposed by the United States. When it comes to human rights activists who challenge a U.S. ally, however, the Obama administration appears no different than previous administrations in tolerating their oppression.
Mauritania's coup is a setback for democracy
3 October 2008
The overthrow in August of what arguably constituted the most democratic government in the Arab world marks a serious setback in Africa as well as the Middle East.
Washington's Hypocrisy Over African Dictatorships
1 July 2008
The Bush administration has justifiably criticized the Zimbabwean regime of liberator-turned-dictator Robert Mugabe. It has joined a unanimous UN Security Council resolution condemning the campaign of violence unleashed upon pro-democracy activists and calling for increased diplomatic sanctions in the face of yet another sham election. In addition, both the House and the Senate have passed strongly worded resolutions of solidarity with the people of Zimbabwe in support of their struggle for freedom and democracy….
Somalia as a Military Target: Updated
14 January 2007
The U.S.-backed Ethiopian invasion of Somalia and subsequent U.S. air strikes and naval blockade against that east African country mark another dangerous chapter in the Bush administration's war against Islamic nations. And, despite no authorization from Congress for the United States to become engaged in that country's civil war and despite the failure of President Bush to consult with Congress as required by the War Powers Act, the new Democratic leadership in Congress apparently has no objections to this dangerous and illegal escalation.

Self Determination Struggle in the Western Sahara Continues to Challenge the UN
1 September 2003
After much wrangling from the French, the UN Security Council unanimously passed resolution 1495 right on the July 31st deadline for the rollover of the MINURSO peacekeeping operation in Western Sahara. In the best diplomatic tradition, the resolution affirmed the commitment to provide for the self-determination of the people of Western Sahara, even while it seriously compromised on it by supporting a peace plan that would allow the Moroccan settlers in the territory to vote on independence in five years. As with Israeli settlers on the West Bank, these Moroccan colonists are there in violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits countries from transfering their civilian population onto territories seized by military force.

HEDGESVILLE - Local West Virginia Mountaineer fans gathered Thursday at Hedgesville High School to give back to the Boys & Girls Club of the Eastern Panhandle and join in the excitement of the coming football season.
Some 100 fans gathered for the Eastern Panhandle's third annual event, which included a tailgate dinner, a silent auction featuring Mountaineers merchandise and Mountaineers play-by-play announcer Tony Caridi talking about the Mountaineers' first season in the Big 12 conference .
"The concept of the event began six years ago in Charleston as a way to bring people in the community, raise money for a cause and provide a program centered around what a lot of people talk about, which is WVU football and basketball," Caridi said. "Three years ago, we decided to come out to the Eastern Panhandle, and it has worked out great."
Article Photos
Tom Shade makes a bid on a silent auction items during the third annual 'Inside the Huddle with Tony Caridi.' All proceeds for the event went to the Boys & Girls Club of the Eastern Panhandle.
Even a rain shower couldn't dampen anybody's enthusiasm.
"Every year, we try to make this event better, but the Eastern Panhandle has such an incredible fanbase that we wanted to bring Tony back to talk about the major changes," fan Gail Shade said. "It's a great time to get fired up about the Mountaineers' season,"
Caridi gave the attendees insight about the Mountaineers new conference and also shed light on the significance of the change.
"This is a historical time, not only for the athletic programs, but the school itself," Caridi said. "This move will change the brand and what West Virginia is known for.
"The last 10 months have been a whirlwind as to where WVU would land, but where we did go is a wonderful place that will add security to the programs for years to come."
He said West Virginia and other schools in conference are similar in scope.
"The schools in the conference have commonalities with WVU," Caridi said. "The missions of the universities are similar, and there are similarities geographically in places such as Stillwater, Okla., the location of the Oklahoma State Cowboys."
The Mountaineer fans in attendance were also excited for not only what Caridi said, but also about the noise West Virginia is expected to make in the conference. The Mountaineers enter the season predicted to finish second to Oklahoma.
"I love the conference move. I think the Big 12 is going to be a great fit," fan Tom Shade said. "The level of competition has changed, and it puts us at a whole new level."
"Being No. 2 in the conference gives us new insight and shows us what to expect," fan Justin Henry said. "It's going to be a positive for us going into the Big 12, but the growing pains will be present.
"It's good for the school."
There will be adjustments to joining the new league, but Caridi feels that the Mountaineers can adapt with recruiting.
"To gain depth in the lineup, people will see more true freshman playing, as we will see a minimum of 10 to as many as 14-16 playing because depth is needed," Caridi said. "From a recruiting standpoint, there has been little resistance.
"It can be an advantage being the easternmost school selling the Big 12 brand of football. It very well can be a positive in saying "How would you like to play against Oklahoma, the Texas Longhorns, Oklahoma State and the Kansas State Wildcats?"
As Mountaineer fans got excited for the football season, the feeling of giving back to the children of the community was an added bonus.
"Boys & Girls Club is a great opportunity to give to the kids in the area," Shade said. "This event was successful in helping the kids and getting ready for the season."

Phunk Investigation & Schuhmacher
Great Stuff Recordings
Yearning for a little filtered funk in your life? Phunk Investigation & Schuhmacher have the answer with their new rumpshaker Critical, a smooth slice of dancefloor dynamite that fuses the textures of yesteryear's filter disco sound with a serious dose of contemporary tech house energy.
It's a subtle beast that eases you in with its tortured disco loop, not preparing your ears and body for the rampant vigour of what's to come. A plump, curt synth arpeggio bubbles away as the turgid counterweight to the loop's sassiness, with all manner of build-up apparatus thrown in to help the track explode all over your face, plus a vocal warning of the perils of jazz cigarettes. Oh, and a cheeky little cowbell never goes amiss, does it? A beast of a track.
Italian producer Siwell tames and tempers this dancefloor titan somewhat on his remix, harnessing its fiery nature for a deeper yet still rolling and lively remix. Cymbals pan around your head, bongos trickle over the bumping bass groove and inflect a gentle tribal lilt to the proceedings, and the loop pops its head in here and there to keep things bubbling. The Phuture Mix strips things down to an incessant, looping minimum, making for a more succinct yet still hard-hitting take on the original.

You want world change, want it so bad you cant stand to leave things be. there is only one solution.
Kill all those who oppose you.

The myth that the death of Osama bin Laden was a mortal blow for al-Qaida seems to be debunked more with every passing day.
Our military options in Syria are limited because some of the groups fighting Bashar al-Assad are backed by al-Qaida. We do not want to topple his government if it results in a new government run by fanatical terrorists.
We are on the horns of a dilemma - do we negotiate with Russia to allow a monster who has gassed his own people to remain in power? Or do we strike militarily and then aid and arm the rebels - some of whom are aligned with al-Qaida?
Bin Laden's successor as head of al-Qaida, Ayman al-Zawahiri, also used the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks to urge terrorists to continue attacking the United States to weaken our economy.
USA Today quoted al-Zawhri's message as saying, in part, "To keep up the hemorrhage in America's security and military spending, we need to keep the United States on a constant state of alert about where and when the next strike will blow.
"We must bleed America economically by provoking it, so that it continues its massive expenditures on security. America's weak spot is its economy, which began to totter from the drain of its military and security expenditure."
So there is no question that al-Qaida continues to exist to commit acts of terrorism. And there is no doubt that our country is its main target.
The only certainty in the whole situation is that we are going to be fighting terrorism for years to come. And, despite what al-Zawahiri says, we can afford to do so.
Frankly, we can't afford not to.

In the spirit of healthier eating, Newark Beth Israel Medical Center has partnered with Garden State Urban Farms, South Ward Councilman Ras Baraka, and Shaping NJ, part of the state's Department of Nutrition and Fitness, to create a Farmer's Market. This outdoor market, which began in June and runs through November, features a wide variety of locally grown fruits and vegetables and baked goods.
"The market serves as a vehicle to provide fresh produce to an underserved community that does not always have access to affordable, homegrown foods," says John A. Brennan, MD, Executive Director. "We are pleased to provide this variety of healthy foods, which can translate into stronger, healthier Newark residents."
The market is held on Thursdays from 1-4 p.m. in the lot directly across the street from the Maple Avenue School Annex on Lyons Avenue.
"The Farmer's Market also serves as a teaching tool to educate the community, adults and children, on the benefits of eating more fruits and vegetables and eating healthy in general," says Barbara Mintz, MS, RD, Director of Clinical Nutrition at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center.
Newark Beth Israel's KidsFit Newark, pediatric obesity management and wellness program, is being piloted in Maple Avenue School, right next to the lot. The market helps to reinforce the messages in our KidsFit lesson plans, which are about the importance of healthy eating.
"The market is part of a comprehensive, community wellness initiative that is providing access to wellness programs, nutrition and exercise education as well as healthy food," Ms. Mintz adds.
There are plans to bring the market indoors at the Beth once a week.

Environmentally friendly aviation
We strive to reduce CO2 emissions at the airport. We also have set as a goal to generate 20% of our own energy needs in a sustainable way by 2020. The biggest contributors to CO2 emissions at Schiphol are energy consumption; heating, air conditioning, and lighting, and mobility(our motor pool, and commuters).
Schiphol actively works at reducing greenhouse gases by cutting down on our energy consumption and through greater efficiency, and sustainable energy practices.
We have reduced our energy consumption by smart on and off switches for our lighting and air conditioning. We have also chosen for energy efficient LED lighting.
Schiphol has 8 locations with heat cold storage, and has a field with 3,000 m2 solar panels.
Schiphol plays a part in the Airport Carbon Accreditation benchmark of our industry organization Airports Council International. In May 2014 the CO2 reduction effort at Schiphol was awarded with the Airport Carbon accreditation level 3+. This is the highest level. This was obtained not only because of the reduction of CO2 output at the airport, but also because the airport was successful in motivating its partners (airlines, ground handlers) to reduce their CO2 output as well.

As the Lions returned to Monday Night Football on Monday, for the first time in a decade, they made their greatest player an honorary captain, while ESPN featured the former running back on its Monday Night Football intro.
"I told him we had a helmet and jersey," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said of Sanders, who retired in 1998, walking away one good season from the NFL's all-time rushing record. "All he needed to know was how we called the runs to the right and runs to the left and let him do the rest."
It appeared as if the Chicago Bears might spoil Monday Night's Lions party. The Bears had withstood the early energy at Ford Field and taken a 10-7 lead in the half -- and they'd get the football to start the third quarter.
But The Lions forced a punt after three plays, keyed by Bobby Carpenter's tackle of the Bears' Devin Hester for an 8-yard loss.
"It really flipped the script of the game," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said. "We scored real quick. It was almost like were going to take a timeout to try to get a little rest in there."
Lions kicker Jason Hanson Monday became the eighth player in NFL history to play 300 games. The 20-year veteran already owns the NFL record for most games played for one team, passing Bruce Matthews (296) in Week 2.
9 -- The number of false start penalties by the Bears Monday.
119-23 -- The score by which the Lions have outscored opponents in the second halves of their five games this season.
67,861 -- The attendance Monday night, a record at Ford Field for a Lions game
"I don't think you win any awards for 5-0. You have to play 16 games. Back then, they were probably playing 12, so 5-0 was almost halfway through the season."
-- Lions coach Jim Schwartz, downplaying the 5-0 start and then comparing it to the Lions' 5-0 start in 1956.

We think of trailers as cargo conveyances, carrying their payloads from shipper to receiver. But some never move because they're meant to store products on-site.

Tiger By The Tail News: As expected, Jhonny Peralta was suspended by Major League baseball 50 games today for a first time PED offense. Detroit knew this was coming and have already acquired his replacement, Jose Iglasius. With just 53 games left in the year for the Tigers (including this one), Peralta will only be eligible to play in the final three regular season games (and possibly the playoffs). With his contract running out at the end of the season, it is unlikely for Peralta to play another game as a Tiger, similar to the Melky Cabrera situation last season.
Player of the Game
Corey Kluber was electric tonight, giving the Indians just the start they needed to this huge series against Detroit. Kluber pitched into the 8th, allowing no runs and striking out six. All of his six hits allowed were singles and three of those runners were eliminated on the base paths (two outfield assists and a double play). Kluber also helped himself defensively, fielding a couple tough balls as he kept the ball on the ground most of the night.
Feathers Up
Both teams showed they knew how important this game was by playing exemplary defense. Michael Bourn and Michael Brantley each made great plays in the outfield, while Nick Swisher, Jason Kipnis and Corey Kluber made nice plays closer to home. The play made by Austin Jackson was the best of all, however, as he took a home run away from Lonnie Chisenhall. The upgraded defense is a nice thing to see as the two teams vie for first place in the AL Central.
Brantley was right in the middle of things again tonight. After hitting a single in the second, he stole a base and scored the Indians first run on a Jason Giambi single. Similarly, with two outs in the fourth inning, he hit another single and this time scored on a Carlos Santana double. Brantley has been integral to the Indians lineup all year and now ranks second on the team in runs (53) and RBI (53), behind just Kipnis in each stat.
Feathers Down
Corey Kluber had his good stuff tonight, but the patience of the Tigers hurt him, forcing him to throw a lot of pitches early in the game and keeping him from completing what he started. A ten pitch at bat in the sixth inning against Prince Fielder was a perfect microcosm of the night as Fielder was able to foul off pitch after pitch, but ended up striking out.
Chris Perez made Kluber pay for leaving the game early as he had the worst outing by any Indians reliever all season. Perez pitched in three games in a row and looked winded as he allowed all four batters he faced to reach base and score, giving up the Indians two run lead. Prince Fielder started things off with double and Alex Avila finished them with a three run home run.
Final Score: Cleveland Indians 2 – Detroit Tigers 4
