"What's the matter Schweinsteiger? Are you nervoushh?" - Diego Maradona
Errr… not one bit, as it would turn out.
Serendipity. It's one of my favorite words in the English language. It has a complex and nuanced meaning that, at its' core, can be broken down to mean "a happy accident". When I use it in a sentence, I would say, "The injury sustained to Michael Ballack was serendipitous for Jogi Loew and die Mannschaft."
The transition from attacking mid to holding midfielder came at the start of last Bundesliga season for Bastian Schweinsteiger. Wily as a fox, Bayern Munich trainer, Louis van Gaal paired Bastian up with team captain, Mark van Bommel--- and they never looked back. The ueber-dynamic midfield, co-starring Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery, was a pleasure to behold once it all gelled together--- much like what is happening at this tournament.
Jogi Loew made some very unpopular decisions, according to most Germans, before he picked his final 23. The usual line-up having been battered by injuries, he chose to leave out a couple of Nationalelf stalwarts, Torsten Frings and Kevin Kuranyi. Instead, choosing a pack of up-and-comers from the youth squads, mixed with established talent he could trust implicitly. And here we sit today, after dismantling another major threat.
Frankly, I'm sick and tired of hearing, from the English and Argentines alike, "But, we looked so much better on paper than you." Bah! Last time I checked, a proper football match was played on a pitch. You know, one made of grass--- with some seats around it. And a proper footballing team, is exactly that. A team. Eleven guys, in sync, with one common objective. To win. Up to this point, Germany has exemplified this best. By far.
It's been spectacular, hasn't it?
With his, now obligatory, wink for the camera during line-ups, a cheeky Thomas Mueller opened up the scoring on just 3 minutes, after Lukas Podolski won a free-kick from a hapless Nicholas Otamendi. The Bayern Munich youngster nudged in on a beautiful cross by Bastian.
After finally settling in, La Albiceleste created some chances, only to be closed down, seemingly last-minute, by a German back four that held their line. The best chance the Argentines had was a lovely through ball, by Lionel Messi, that Manuel Neuer managed to get to, just ahead of Carlos Tevez.
Shots were traded throughout the first half, and when a soft yellow was shown to Thomas Mueller, on 36 minutes, Gonzalo Higuain thought he had equalized before it was revealed that the entire Argentine squad was offsides. Ha.
A nervy start to the second half saw us back on our heels, while Per Mertesacker's face saved a Tevez shot on goal. Ouch. But as the hour mark passed, the tide turned in our favor as Klose doubled our score on an open-net tap-in from a Podolski pass.
A couple of minutes later the score was 3 - 0 after a short corner let Schweinsteiger pass to Arne Friedrich, who promptly scored his first international goal.
After that, Argentina had no answers, and no gas left. And to add insult to injury, Klose once again tapped in on 89 minutes from a lovely cross by Oezil.
4-0. Against Argentina? And after destroying the English 4-1 (4-2)? Man, it really doesn't get any better than that! And, against an arrogant coach, in Diego Maradona, who seemingly chose not to view any German tape, resorting to showmanship and disrespect of the highest order.
His choices to leave Cambiasso and Zanetti off of his national team are perplexing. As well as his leaving Milito on the bench for the entire match. After all, this talented trio was a huge part in Inter Milan's victory over Bayern Munich in the Champions League final. And just so you remember correctly, a full quarter of Germany's national team is comprised of Bayern Munich squad members.
Who's nervoushh now? We won't cry for you, Maradona.
Well, who would have thought that?
WC quarter final? Argentina-Germany 0:4? Are you kidding me?
What a fantastic match. What a great team effort. Contrary to the French "team", which crumbled in epic fashion, the three musketeer phrase "One for all. All for one." was and is the key note for our national team. Paired with a lot of style and great coaching, Argentina was crushed. WoW! As i wrote before: Ballacks injury really seems to be a blessing in disguise. The fanstastic performance of Schweinsteiger showed that we really do not need the "Capitano" anymore. At least not in the starting XI.
But ... it was not all gold that glittered. Between minute 30 and 60 there was more than one shaky moment. Supporting a 3rd league club teaches you to be a very skeptical football person. Believe me. And Spain imho is still the best team in the world. Therefore the next match will be more than tough. Lets see how the kids do against them.
Even if we don´t win. There is still 2014!
Hopefully in the next press conference involving Mueller and Maradona - Mueller can bounce Maradona from the press.
Also keep in mind that since Maradona took over the national team, the midfield played in a very unorganized fashion due to the absence of Juan Riquelme.
that unorganization is what nearly got them bounced from the qualifiers and it is what also go them beat when facing a true powerhouse.
argentina got as far as they did and had a "good" group stage b/c their talent made up for their lack of tactics against weaker teams...
hoping to see Germany vs Holland on Sunday!!

2004 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 RecallsFuel May Leak from Fuel Rail
The retainer clip for the fuel rail pulse damper may fracture and allow the damper to come loose from the fuel rail. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire. Dealers will replace the engine fuel rail pulse damper free of charge. The recall began August 31, 2006. The GM recall number is 06080.
The second row center seat belt routing may make it difficult to position correctly on smaller passengers. If the seat belt rides up to fit around the abdomen, the risk of internal injury is increased in a crash. Dealers will cut the guide loop, remove a portion of the loop, and the remaining sides should be folded over and secured with a retainer. The recall began July 21, 2005. The GM recall number is 05037.
On vehicles equipped with the Bosch hydraulic brake booster, the boost pressure accumulator may crack and break away from the hydro-boost assembly during normal operation. If this were to happen while the hood is open, fragments from the accumulator could injure people standing in the immediate area. The loss of fluid while driving would cause increased steering and braking effort and a crash could occur without warning. Dealers will test the hydro-boost assembly for function of the two-function valve. If the hydro-boost assembly fails the test, it will be replaced free of charge. The recall began March 23, 2005. The GM recall number is 05006.

Hi all!
You guys are my last resort here.
I have a FreeBSD 5.3 RELEASE box at the office and a NetBSD 1.6.1 box at
home. I'm trying to do something stunningly unimaginitive, mount my
office nfs export on my home box.
I made the requisite entries in /etc/exports on the office machine,(also
hosts.allow and hosts.deny for security) then started:
On the home machine I then tried to mount the share:
mount server:/usr/home/colin serverhome
and (as the subject line states, got this error message:

I've been wrestling with this problem for over a week now. Googling the

PARALYMPIC and Olympic athlete Oscar Pistorius arrived in a police convoy at the Mamelodi Day Hospital on Thursday following the Valentine's Day shooting of model and law graduate Reeva Steenkamp at his home earlier in the day.
It was not immediately clear why he was there. He was taken to the clinic at high speed after spending part of the morning at the Boschkop police station.
Mr Pistorius was expected to appear in the Pretoria Magistrate's Court later on Thursday after a case of murder was opened.
The management of the publicity agency that Steenkamp, 30, retained confirmed she had died. Sarit Tomlinson, MD of Capacity Relations, said in a statement: "We can confirm that Reeva Steenkamp has passed away... Our thoughts and prayers go to the Steenkamp family, who have asked to have their privacy respected during this difficult time. Everyone is simply devastated."
Steenkamp was reported to have been dating Mr Pistorius for a year.
Police spokeswoman Lt-Col Katlego Mogale said a 9mm pistol had been found at the scene and a 26-year-old man was taken into custody. Police do not identify suspects until they are charged in court.
"There are witnesses and they have been interviewed this morning. We are talking about neighbours and people that heard things earlier in the evening and when the shooting took place," police Brig Denise Beukes told reporters outside the Silver Woods Country Estate complex in Pretoria where Mr Pistorius lived.
The public reacted with shock to the news of the shooting. Callers on John Robbie's Talk Radio 702 breakfast show expressed a range of opinions about the incident, which has ignited a fresh debate on crime in the country.
Police officers, paramedics and local and international film crews were on the scene at the residential estate.
"Paramedics declared the woman dead on the scene and police proceeded with their investigation. The woman sustained wounds to her head and upper body," spokeswoman Lt-Col Mogale said.
Lt-Col Mogale would not confirm an earlier news report that Mr Pistorius was the shooter. It was suggested he had mistaken the woman for a burglar.
Mr Robbie said on his show: "We are not prejudging but people will obviously speculate. All sorts of questions need to be answered."
Another talk-show host, Redi Thlabi, raised the issue of gun ownership.
"I am just shocked and speechless. I wonder if this puts the spotlight on the gun ownership debate. Do you feel safe when you hear such stories?" she said.
As the news broke on Thursday morning, early reports flooded South African social media channels, with the topic quickly trending on Twitter. It was also the lead report on international news websites such as CNN and the BBC.
Last year, Mr Pistorius became the first double leg amputee to compete in the Olympic Games when he ran the 400m race in London, reaching the semifinal, and was part of the South African 4x400m relay team. When competing, he uses specially designed carbon-fibre prostheses, which gave rise to his nickname of "Blade Runner".
He also took part in the London Paralympics, where he won two gold medals and one silver medal.
'Obnoxious and rude to speculate'
The South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (Sascoc) said it could not comment on the news.
"Sascoc, like the rest of the public, knows no more than what is in the public domain, which is there has been an alleged fatal shooting on the basis of a mistaken identity and an apparent assumption of a burglary," the Olympic body said in a statement.
"The organisation is in no position to comment on the incident other than to say our deepest sympathy and condolences have been expressed to the families of all concerned."
Mr Pistorius's father told South African Broadcasting Corporation radio news that his son was "sad".
"I don't know anything. It will be extremely obnoxious and rude to speculate. I don't know the facts," Henke Pistorius said. "If anyone makes a statement, it will have to be Oscar. He's sad at the moment."
Mr Pistorius is sponsored by British telecoms firm BT, sunglasses maker Oakley, sports apparel maker Nike and French designer Thierry Mugler.

Northwestern Office for Research
Sharing Facilities and Administrative Cost Recovery Revenue
Last Review: October 2005
1. Introduction
Starting in FY 2006, Northwestern University is implementing a program to share Facilities & Administrative (F&A) cost recovery revenues with select research-intensive schools and research centers that operate under the centralized financial management structure. F&A is sometimes referred to as "Indirect Cost Reimbursement" on sponsored projects. This program is not meant to encompass or evaluate any of the underlying scholarly activities that occur as a result of university sponsored research.
The research-intensive areas that operate under the centralized financial management structure include the Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences, the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science, the School of Communication, the School of Education and Social Policy, and the research centers reporting to the Vice President for Research (VPR).
The Feinberg School of Medicine and the Law School operate under a decentralized financial management structure and receive all of the F&A cost recoveries that they generate from their sponsored projects. Under the decentralized financial management structure, these schools must pay for the annual operating costs for all of the space they occupy and are assessed their share of University academic and administrative support services.
2. Objectives
The objectives of the F&A recovery revenue sharing program are to:
3. Definition of F&A Recovery
F&A recovery revenues are generated by the assessment of indirect cost expenses to individual sponsored projects. The assessment is accomplished through the charging of an F&A cost rate to most direct costs on an individual sponsored project account. The F&A cost rate is negotiated periodically (typically, every three to four years) between the University and the Federal agency assigned to the University for this purpose.
The Facilities and Administrative cost rate is comprised of the following components, as defined by the Federal government:
Administrative costs (so-called "A" component)
For additional background information on institutional F&A cost rates, see the Office of Research's F&A Costs Primer.
4. Description of the F&A Recovery Sharing Program
Under this new program, the research-intensive areas will receive the portion of F&A recoveries that are attributable to the department administration component of the University's calculated organized (sponsored) research F&A rate, which represents approximately 28.0% of the total F&A recovery.
The central administration has allocated an additional $1 million for FY 2006 to the research-intensive areas participating in this program. This will be augmented by an additional $1 million in FY 2007. These recurring funds were allocated based on the current level of research expenditure activity at the school or area level.
For each research-intensive area participating in the F&A recovery revenue sharing program, the Budget Planning Office has established revenue budgets equivalent to 28.0% of F&A recoveries generated by that area. In addition, the Budget Planning Office has reduced the annual expense budget appropriation to the participating areas by an amount equal to the new F&A recovery budget. In FY 2006, the net impact on this new revenue budget for participating areas will be zero, since the actual recovery revenue transfers will exactly equal the revenue budget. The 28.0% share of recoveries is based on a three-year moving average of actual recoveries, lagged two years. The FY 2006 revenue budget and actual transfer reflect actual F&A recovery expenses in FY 2002, 2003, and 2004. The participating research-intensive areas will receive the transfer revenue at the start of FY 2006.
For the centralized areas that have opted for this revenue sharing program, budgeting for FY 2007 and beyond requires an annual calculation of the area's new weighted three-year average recovery revenue budget. The new recovery budget for FY 2007 will be based on the actual F&A recoveries for FY 2003, 2004, and 2005. When the recalculated recovery revenue exceeds the prior year's recovery revenue budget, the area realizes a revenue gain. Conversely, when the calculated three-year average recovery revenue is less than the prior year total recovery revenue budget, the area will experience a loss of revenue in this portion of its budget.
5. Recalculation of the Percentage for Department Administration
The portion of F&A recovery revenues that are attributable to department research administration generally will be recalculated every three or four years, each time a new F&A rate is negotiated with the Federal government. While it is possible that the 28.0% share will change, the University does not anticipate that it will change significantly in future years.
6. Eligibility
The F&A cost recovery revenue sharing program is limited to research-intensive areas that are managed under the centralized financial management structure, and those areas for which the annual F&A cost recovery revenue exceeds $350,000. An area must reach this threshold before it can choose to participate in the new recovery revenue sharing program. Each area above this threshold will decide whether to participate in the program, in consultation with the Provost. For FY 2006, Weinberg College, the McCormick School, the School of Education and Social Policy, and the research centers reporting to the Vice President for Research all have opted to participate in this program.
7. F&A Recovery that Crosses Areas
The F&A recovery revenue-sharing program assumes that the administration of sponsored projects is provided by the areas to which accounts are assigned in the University's General Ledger (CUFS) system. To the extent that responsibilities are borne in a different area, the respective area managers must work out an equitable arrangement to distribute both the administrative responsibilities and the F&A recovery. The assignment of sponsored project expenditure credit is discussed further in a separate document titled Tracking Investigator Award and Expenditure Credit for Sponsored Programs.
8. Distribution of F&A Recovery to Departments and Individual Principal Investigators
The deans and the VPR are responsible for the distribution and management of these recoveries within their respective areas.
9. Impact of Changes in the Organizational Unit
In cases where the organizational unit moves from one management area to another, sponsored activity associated with that unit will be credited to the new management area, regardless of where accounts reside in CUFS. (The Infrastructure Technology Institute and the Transportation Center are recent examples of these types of changes.) Changes of this nature may require restating expenditures and recalculating the three-year average for purposes of measuring the bases for this new revenue sharing program.
10. Allowable Expenditures from the F&A Recovery
Under these guidelines there are two classes of research-intensive areas in the University: decentralized areas and centralized areas. The decentralized areas are: Feinberg School of Medicine and the Law School. All of the F&A cost recoveries attributable to these areas are treated as revenues to these areas. The decentralized areas pay for their own space costs and are assessed their share of University academic and administrative support services. Both of the decentralized areas have full discretion over the use of the F&A revenues they receive.
For the centralized areas that have opted to participate in this new program, the Facilities portion of the F&A cost recoveries is not allocated to the areas because the University pays for all of their space costs. Only the F&A recovery revenue that is attributable to departmental administration is allocated to these areas under this new revenue sharing arrangement. The deans and the VPR decide how these recovery revenues will be allocated within their respective areas.
In general, the Federal government does not stipulate or limit how an institution may use the F&A recovery revenue it generates on its sponsored projects. (The one exception relates to the recovery associated with the building depreciation component of Facilities costs). The Federal government expects institutions to demonstrate that an amount equal to federal recoveries generated at the negotiated F&A rate have been invested in construction or improvement of research facilities.
The annual expense budget appropriation to the areas participating in this program supports the existing administrative support staff, such as PI administrative assistants, financial assistants and accounting clerks who are assigned to assist principal investigators in managing their sponsored project activity. These staff members can be serving in the dean's office, in the department or center office, and/or in an individual laboratory office. The annual expense budget appropriation also supports expenses for general material and service costs such as office supplies, copying, postage, and recurring telephone and data line costs that support sponsored project activity, but cannot be charged as direct costs to the project accounts. Under this new revenue sharing program, any incremental funds received annually by the participating areas are expected to support new administrative staff positions and their associated non-personnel related costs reflective of the growth in sponsored project activity.
There are two basic principles that govern the use of these cost recovery revenues:
Though there is a relatively broad interpretation of research administration, there are important boundaries for using of these funds. For example, the allocated recovery funds cannot be used for:

A fire-weary week drew to a close Friday with little rest, watery eyes and lots of hard work ahead to contain numerous wildfires burning around the High Desert, including a group of four fires battled as a new complex around Big Summit Prairie on the Ochoco National Forest east of Prineville.
Residents around Central Oregon were dealing with plenty of thick smoke, and many feared it meant new fires closer to them -- but Central Oregon Interagency Dispatch said the smoke was from fires dozens if not more miles away, though a new complex of fires was being fought on the Ochoco National Forest.
Eyes were watering and throats were burning, especially in Madras, where the DEQ 24-hour air quality reading reached the "hazardous" level Friday night (though a bit better by Saturday morning) and "very unhealthy" in Prineville. Check the latest readings at http://www.deq.state.or.us/aqi/index.aspx
The evacuation notices issued earlier in the week grew as the Wheeler County Sheriff's Office issued a Level 3 evacuation notice - meaning to leave now -- for the West Branch area near the Bailey Butte Fire in the Waterman Complex. A Red Cross shelter was located at Mitchell City Hall, 104 S. Nelson St.
A red flag warning remained in place through 11 p.m. Friday due to those conditions, meaning more major growth likely on the fires, especially the ones racing across rangeland and open fields, the Central Oregon Interagency Dispatch Center in Prineville said in Friday's update.
Residents in Marks Creek east of Prineville, rafters along the Lower Deschutes River and visitors along the Metolius Arm of Lake Billy Chinook had something in common Thursday: Evacuation orders forced them to leave.
And the Bridge 99 Complex of two fires north of Camp Sherman grew by more than 2,900 acres Thursday, despite the efforts of 400-plus firefighters, and remained just 5 percent contained Friday.
There were about a half-dozen new fire starts reported Thursday to COIDC, making for a total of 110 starts since last Sunday's thunderstorms raked the region with 3,500 lightning strikes
A Level 3 evacuation order remained in place Friday for about 30 homes in the Marks Creek area of eastern Crook County due to the threat posed by the Bailey Butte Fire, which grew 5,625 acres and still was only 5 percent contained. That also has meant a large area closure west and south of the fire.
On Thursday morning, the fire prompted ODOT to move back the Hwy. 26 closure to just 16 miles east of Prineville. A 21-mile stretch is closed until further notice due to hazardous conditions.
Also on Thursday, the Bridge 99 Complex of two fires near Camp Sherman grew substantially, to over 6,300 acres, and the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office issued three levels of widespread evacuation notices for nearby areas.
All private lands along the Metolius River were put under a Level 3 (go now) order, from Allen Springs Campground to Lake Billy Chinook.
The Three Rivers subdivision was under a Level 2 notice to be ready to leave at a moment's notice, while a lesser, Level 1 pre-evacuation alert to get ready was issued for the Rim Park, Forest Park and Air Park subdivisions, along with Cove Palisades State Park)
There are also numerous forest roads, campgrounds and trails closed in the area.
Fire managers on Thursday closed the Lower Deschutes due to the fires moving toward the river from both sides.
The Shaniko Butte Fire on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation -- 25,000 acres at last report, and putting up tall plume late Thursday -- burned down toward the Lower Deschutes River near the tiny hamlet of Dant, forcing closure of a stretch of the river during the height of rafting season.
For Marks Creek residents, about 6:30 a.m. Thursday came the word: "Current conditions present specific and immediate threat(s) to the life and safety of persons in this area," it read. "You are advised to evacuate immediately."
The area affected was along Hwy. 26E between the Mt. Bachelor Academy and Forest Service Road 2630.
"If you choose to ignore this advisement, you must understand that emergency services may not be available," the notice to residents warned. "Volunteers and other persons will not be allowed to enter the area to provide assistance."
Roadblocks and 24-hour patrols were being established in the area, Ryan said, and "residents will not be allowed to return until conditions are safe."
The American Red Cross was set up a shelter at Crook County High School for evacuees to check in and to provide information.
Many of the larger fires around Oregon have the latest details listed, including maps, on the state's InciWeb page,, http://inciweb.nwcg.gov/state/38/
Here's the COIDC and other fire officials' Friday update on fires burning around the region:
Ochoco Complex: The Ochoco Complex has burned about 600 acres and consists of five fires -- four on the Ochoco National Forest (Lava, Fox, Broadway and Antelope) and the Oscar Fire burning on the Prineville BLM in the North Fork Wilderness Study Area. All are believed to have been sparked by last Sunday's lightning.
Officials said Saturday morning the acreages were likely to grow as the fires were "very active" Friday.
The largest blaze, the Fox Fire, is burning in steep, rocky terrain six miles south of Big Summit Prairie and about three miles northwest of the North Fork Wilderness Study Area, near Forest Road 4230. It is currently estimated at 400 acres, and believed to have burned into the Oscar Canyon Fire.

The Rogue Candidate
Washington, D.C.-That Malcolm Stevenson 'Steve' Forbes Jr. continues to exist as a presidential candidate is almost an allegory for the worst of American excess and sanctimony. His shoveling load after load of daddy-derived dollars like wheelbarrows of Weimar marks into the maws of media buyers-who provide sustenance for the fiction he is a serious political candidate-makes the nascent Trump candidacy look endearing and modest by comparison. The litany of instances in which he has gone from sounding vaguely enlightened to positively Pentecostal on social issues demonstrates either cretinous conversion or hypocritical desperation for votes; taken in tandem with his largely ignored or forgotten-but brazenly brilliant-end run around political financing regulations, one beholds a degree of guile perhaps unparalleled in the 2000 electoral contest.
"My position has been absolutely consistent on a whole host of critical issues," he said last year. Yet in pursuit of power, he is positively Clintonian in his unabashed reversals. Once upon a time, the Timberfield's scion said Pat Robertson was a "toothy flake" and the Christian Coalition an astigmatic association that spoke only "for its members." Now members of the Coalition have been hired to labor in the vineyards of Forbes 2000, and the candidate speaks as if the most noxious elements of Quayle and Buchanan have been channeled into him via one of the Coalition's snake-handling acolytes. In 1996, the pragmatist said that attempting a total abortion ban would be "a waste of time." Now, the Right Reverend reveals that "the first order of compassion is protecting the unborn," and he yearns for the day when a total abortion ban bill will come to his presidential desk so he can sign it and "rid ourselves of this blight." In 1994, he wrote that the balanced budget amendment "deserves to go nowhere"; in 1996, he revised history on CNN, explaining, "I've always felt we needed a balanced budget."
There are other examples, as well, and how does one rationalize them? There may be a more charitable rationale: mere vote-mongering. "In their late forties," Forbes posited during the last election, "Forbes men's hormones seem to change. Pop started riding motorcycles. I would say running for president qualifies." Running for president as a form of embracing your inner alpha male? There is an undeniable (though still, sadly, patrician) edge to Forbes; as Republican consultant Alex Castellanos once famously said of him, "Nobody wants to get chased down the street by a mad billionaire with a squash racket." (Perhaps Naomi Wolf is needed more urgently as a consultant at the Forbes, rather than Gore, campaign.) Yet, these days, his chasing of votes seems increasingly quixotic; while a trickle of former Quayle and Buchanan supporters have rerouted themselves down the electoral sluice to Forbes-doubtless attracted by the new, bold right-wing rhetoric over the old and more moderate-he still trails in the polls behind Bush and McCain. Some things, apparently, never change: "I am white, a Protestant, an Ivy Leaguer, rich, business-oriented, without practical political experience," the candidate said last time around. "It couldn't be worse, but at least I'd like to be free to fall down on my own arse, without any help from conservatives."
While he may not be hacking it on the hustings, in the realm of campaign finance, Forbes has never had to fear falling on his arse; with a personal fortune of at least half a billion dollars, rattling the tin cup is hardly essential. Yet that hasn't stopped him from exploiting fundraising loopholes that have saved him a bit of money in the past. In fact, Forbes holds a dubious honor previously unawarded in politics: his proto-2000 campaign operated completely outside the realm of campaign finance law.

In 1996, Forbes conjured up a nonprofit corporation, Americans for Hope, Growth and Opportunity. What commenced as an organization devoted to flacking the flat tax has become, over time, Forbes's bridge to social conservatives; in addition to spending millions advocating Social Security privatization and Medical Savings Accounts, the group has championed the antichoice position on abortion and the prochoice position on schools. Ads featuring Forbes on these issues have afflicted the airwaves over the past few years, particularly in South Carolina, Iowa, Arizona, and New Hampshire-states that just happen to have early but crucial primaries. AHGO has also flooded the Republican faithful's officeholders and activists with faxes and e-mails at crucial junctures in policy debates; after Clinton's January 1998 State of the Union address, money raised by AHGO underwrote a national one-minute response ad featuring none other than AHGO's "honorary chairman," Steve Forbes.
Sound more than a little like the campaign of someone running for president way before election year? Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course; any number of aspirant officeholders have their own PACs that they use to campaign in the off-years, and they're all registered and regulated by the Federal Election Commission. AHGO (now defunct with the advent of Forbes 2000) maintained that what it did was "issues advocacy." Yet it strains credulity to see how AHGO wasn't inextricably linked with the Forbes candidacy, especially as its staffers were all Forbes '96 staffers, and as its offices and phone number (until 1998) were the same as the Forbes '96 campaign. Indeed, speaking to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in 1998, the chairman of the New Hampshire Republican party, Stephen Duprey, simply said, "Everyone knows that AHGO will someday become the Steve Forbes for President campaign."
Yet AHGO has never been registered with the FEC. It's a nonprofit corporation registered with the New Jersey secretary of state. As such, it's never had to abide by fundraising limits that apply to PACs, nor is it subject to contributor disclosure requirements. And this worked well for Forbes, who raised more money in 1997-approximately $4 million-through AHGO than any other presidential hopeful did through their own PAC. Though Forbes once magnanimously declared he would "voluntarily" post a list of donors on AHGO's Web site, he never did. But, then, that's in keeping with standard Forbes practice as well. As a candidate, Forbes has advocated expansive electronic filing of tax returns, as well as what the Center for Responsive Politics characterizes as "full and prompt electronic disclosure of campaign finance records."
Though he proudly kicked off his campaign on the Internet, guess who didn't file electronically to the FEC, thus making citizen access to an accounting of Forbes's war chest more difficult? Of the just over $2 million in individual contributions of over $200 (that's 10.8 percent of what's in Forbes's coffers), fully one quarter of those are bereft of donor identification. Not that it matters that much, though; almost 80 percent of Steve Forbes's campaign money comes from Steve Forbes. Yet unlike Perot, who simply gave himself the money, Forbes technically loans himself the money-if he wants, he can use his campaign contributions, however paltry, to pay himself back.
Even so, perhaps, for the sake of the polity, his dignity, and his financial holdings, Steve should have emulated Daddy and just bought himself a Harley.

Shrimp pinwheels
Makes about 30 servings
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Pinch of salt
2 cups whole milk
4 egg yolks
4 egg whites, beaten until stiff peaks form
1 teaspoon sugar
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
1 pound cooked and peeled shrimp, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped chutney
3 tablespoons chopped preserved ginger
2 tablespoons curry powder
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and salt, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Gradually add the milk and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and blend in the egg yolks and sugar. Fold in the egg whites.
Oil an 11-by-16-inch jelly roll pan and line with wax paper, and then lightly oil the wax paper. Spread the batter evenly over the wax paper. Bake until the bread springs back when lightly touched with your fingers, 40 to 50 minutes.
Remove from the oven and cool slightly. Turn the pan onto a sheet of wax paper, lift the pan, and peel the paper from the bread. Cool.
Beat the cream cheese and sour cream together in a mixing bowl until smooth and fluffy. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.
Spread the mixture evenly on the bread and roll, jelly-roll style (on the 10-inch length), pressing gently but firmly. Slice (with a serrated knife) into �-inch slices to serve.
Note: I suggest wrapping the loaf in aluminum foil and chilling it in the refrigerator for several hours before slicing to serve.

Vanessa Hudgens and boyfriend Austin Butler had a busy afternoon yesterday, but what's most eye-catching for me is Vanessa's outfit. Typically I'm a fan of Vanessa's outfits, but this may not be one of my favorites.
It's quite a combination: bustier top, long skirt, oversized sweater, and an adorable hat. Individually, each piece is nice, but together? I'm not so sure about them together. This is part of taking fashion chances, and I've always admired Vanessa's willingness to do that!

We're about to learn how to say SpongeBob SquarePants in Mandarin. Nickelodeon parent Viacom (NASDAQ: VIA ) (NASDAQ: VIAB ) and Chinese dot-com darling Sohu.com (NASDAQ: SOHU ) are teaming up to offer hundreds of hours of Nickelodeon programming on Sohu's popular video portal.
SpongeBob SquarePants, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Avatar -- the show, not the movie -- are just some of the Nickelodeon programming that will be available on Sohu Video starting next weekend.
The deal calls for Nickelodeon's content -- dubbed in Mandarin but also available with subtitles -- to be available for free to China's 389 million online-video consumers. The content-licensing partnership will span only 12 months, but there's little reason to expect it to come undone by the end of next year if it's beneficial to both parties.
The timing of the deal couldn't be any sweeter. China approved the rollout of its first commercial 4G wireless service yesterday, a move that will speed up mobile connections and likely increase demand for digital-video content. That's something that even a curmudgeon like SpongeBob SquarePant's Squidward Tentacles can get excited about.

When you write code for Node.js you certainly will have a couple of things in
your build-test-release cycle to automate. I use
make utility for that, mainly
because it is simple and concise.
To start using
make you should create a
Makefile file in your project root
Makefile contains variable and tasks declarations (below I'll give
the examples). To perform some task you just call
make <task name> from a
command line. Easy!
Below is my generic
Makefile from which I usually start a new Node.js or
Browserify project. I'll go step by step through it.
First thing is to define some useful variables: I store sources in
src and
compiled code in
lib (yes, I use CoffeeScript but feel free to customize
template to any language you like).
BIN = ./node_modules/.bin
SRC = $(wildcard src/*.coffee)
LIB = $(SRC:src/%.coffee=lib/%.js)
SRC will contain a list of
.coffee files in
src directory and
LIB — a
list of corresponding (but not-yet-existent)
.js files in
lib directory — the
$(VAR:pattern1=pattern2) form allows to specify a transformation on each item
stored in a variable.
So if we have
src/index.coffee src/mod.coffee in filesystem then
SRC will
capture them and
LIB will contain
lib/index.js lib/mod.js correspondingly.
BIN points to a directory with executables of local Node modules installation.
Now let's define our first task called
build and state that it depends on all
files stored in
LIB variable.
build: $(LIB)
Easy, right?
$(LIB) syntax is just a way
make dereferences variables.
After running
make build the utility will try to ensure all files in
LIB are
in place and up to date. But how we tell
make on how to get all these files in
LIB from corresponding files in
The next snippet defines a so called wildcard rule which is applicable to files
matched by a given pattern, in this case —
lib/%.js — exactly this pattern
will match files in
LIB variable.
lib/%.js: src/%.coffee
@mkdir -p $(@D)
@$(BIN)/coffee -bcp $< > $@
This rule tells
make that file
lib/%.js depends on corresponding
src/%.coffee file and so
make will rebuild the former file if the latter is
How it works? First it creates a directory for a target file (
$(@D) denotes
such directory, it is a
make magic variable), then it calls CoffeeScript
compiler on corresponding
.coffee file denoted by
$< which writes result
into target file denoted by
Note the
@-prefixed lines — by default
make prints all lines it executes,
but lines prefixed with
@ will not be printed.
Enough for a build process —
make build will rebuild all outdated (and only
those) files in
lib directory from corresponding files in
src directory.
task is very easy
test: build
@$(BIN)/mocha -b specs
We just specify that
test depends on
build — we want to run tests on fresh
code — and run our test runner of choice,
mocha in this case.
Auxiliary tasks
Next go auxiliary tasks —
clean which removes all compiled code:
@rm -f $(LIB)
install and
link tasks which simply run corresponding subcommand of
install link:
@npm $@
Note the trick with
$@ variable and how it allows use propagate task name into
a subcommand of
Next thing is releases.
The following snippet may seem a bit magical but actually it's really simple. It defines a parametrized macro for doing patch, minor and major releases and it is used by tasks below.
define release
VERSION=`node -pe "require('./package.json').version"` && \
NEXT_VERSION=`node -pe "require('semver').inc(\"$$VERSION\", '$(1)')"` && \
node -e "\
var j = require('./package.json');\
j.version = \"$$NEXT_VERSION\";\
var s = JSON.stringify(j, null, 2);\
require('fs').writeFileSync('./package.json', s);" && \
git commit -m "release $$NEXT_VERSION" -- package.json && \
git tag "$$NEXT_VERSION" -m "release $$NEXT_VERSION"
In short, it rewrites
package.json with a new incremented version (which part
of version is incremented is defined via
$1 variable which is a macro
parameter) then it creates a corresponding git commit and a git tag.
Next up just call a
release macro with
minor and
major parameters
to create correspondingly
release-minor and
tasks which in turn depend on
build and
test tasks. That way we cannot make
releases if we fail on build or test phases.
release-patch: build test
@$(call release,patch)
release-minor: build test
@$(call release,minor)
release-major: build test
@$(call release,major)
The final point is a
publish task which just pushes commits into a repo and
publish package on npm.
git push --tags origin HEAD:master
npm publish
Now to make a new minor release you just need to execute
make release-minor
publish from a command line — minor version in
package.json will be
incremented, new commit and tag will be created and pushed into a repo and,
finally, package will be published on npm.
The entire
Makefile is available here.

Officials at Laconia High School said they don't believe messages implying that there would be a shooting found recently on bathroom walls represent a credible threat.
In a call and letter to parents, Superintendent Terri Forsten said writing was found in a bathroom at Laconia High School on May 30 and again in another bathroom on Wednesday that could imply that someone was threatening a shooting on June 10.
Forsten said school and police officials don't believe the messages constitute a serious threat. Classes are still planned to be held on Tuesday, and there will be an increased police presence at the school all day.
Final exams at the high school will still begin on Tuesday, as scheduled. A makeup day for students who miss their Tuesday exams will be held on Thursday.

JERUSALEM, Israel - The facts emerging from yesterday's deadly clashes on the northern border brought an admission from the Lebanese Army that they had opened fired on the Israeli border patrol, initiating the incident.
It also became clear they weren't "responding" to Israeli aggression; in fact, they had invited journalists and photographers to record the fire fight. They had also positioned snipers who succeeded in killing one senior IDF officer and critically wound another.
"If this incident was not planned in advance, why did field commanders in the Lebanese army bother to dispatch journalists to the area and ensure that cameras were present at the site," one Israel Defense Forces officer asked.
Two of the journalists were affiliated with Hezbollah media outlets. Assaf Abu Rahal worked for the al-Akhbar newspaper out of Beirut, and Ali Shuaib for the Hezbollah's al-Manar satellite television network. Rahal was killed in the crossfire and Shuaib wounded.
Assad, Nasrallah
Syrian President Bashar Assad pledged to stand by Lebanon against Israeli "aggression."
"The Israeli attack proves once again that Israel is constantly working to destabilize security in Lebanon and the region," Assad told SANA, Syria's state-controlled news agency.
"Syria stresses that it is standing by its sister Lebanon in the face of the criminal Israeli aggression and calls on the U.N. to condemn and stop this aggression," Bashar said.
Hezbollah spiritual leader and general secretary Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah said his "opposition" group was "on alert" and "ready to help the military."
"Officers and soldiers in the Lebanese military are our brothers and loved ones. How could it be that the opposition will sit with its arms crossed from now on as the military is bombed? I will say honestly, we will not sit with arms crossed...the Israeli hand outstretched to strike the Lebanese military will be cut off by the opposition," Nasrallah said.
Coordinated with UNIFIL
UNIFIL, the United Nations peacekeeping force deployed along Lebanon's southern border, said the IDF coordinated the routine pruning work with the Lebanese Army through the U.N. forces.
"I can confirm that the IDF had coordinated the pruning work along the border with the Lebanese Army through UNIFIL," Hungarian diplomat Milos Strugar, who serves as political adviser to the UNIFIL commander, told Army Radio on Wednesday morning.
Struger said UNIFIL troops "face many complaints regarding provocations and arousals by the Lebanese Army against IDF soldiers on a daily basis," but that Tuesday's incident was "the most serious" since 2006.
Lebanese President Michel Suleiman issued a statement immediately following the ambush promising "to stand up to Israel's violation of [U.N.] Resolution 1701, whatever the sacrifices are."
Resolution 1701 stipulated the conditions of the U.N.-brokered ceasefire that ended the Second Lebanon War in the summer of 2006.
A cross-border attack by Hezbollah terrorists on an IDF patrol, in which four soldiers were killed and two kidnapped, sparked the 34-day war.

Dr. Monroe has moved to a beautiful spacious office. The staff is also new which adds to a relaxing and very pleasant spa-like atmosphere. There is soothing background music playing as well.I love how this doctor talks to me and cares about my issues. She is also a busy working mom, so she understands how hectic my life is.
I was refered to Dr. Monroe by my primary care because I was tired of dealing with the get em in/get em out attitude of most group medical facilities and I wanted a doctor who subscribes to the same practices as my primary care. It was nice to have an office visit where the PA and doctor both took time to listen to you and learn about your medical history and current health. I've only had one visit, but it was a very pleasant one.
The dr. was nice but the staff are so bad they need their own reality show. No answers the phone it is left on a machine. No one call you back either. And i waited over 3 months to see her. Glad i was not dying.
Dr. Monroe is a fantastic doctor who treats almost everyone in our family including my mother, daughter, husband and myself! I am 50 years old and have had issues with stress, OCD, perimenopause and low libido. Dr. Monroe has helped me in all of these areas! She is very, very knowledgable, compassionate and patient! I recommend her to everyone I know. My hormone levels were extremely low and with quarterly appointments I feel tremendously better having more energy and better libido! Dr. Monroe has also helped our family with our food selections and we have all lost weight in the process of trying to improve our blood work results! I trust Dr. Monroe 100%! We are very grateful to have Dr. Monroe as our family physician!
She was able to cure my condition without a hysterectomy. I went to other doctors over the past few years who did not help at all; they either sent me home with antidepressants and /or wanted to remove my uterus. Dr. Monroe took care of issues I was suffering with for many years in three visits. Now she is working on making healthy all over, no more sleeping pills, no more anti-depressants. I want to age like her, gracefully and very slowly.
I have lived in this area for the past few years and finding the right gynecologist was very important to me . After speaking with a few of my friends i finally found a Doctor I can trust , is compassionate to my needs ,answers my questions and concerns and is accesible.Love the office staff, Love the doctor.......
I can't believe there is people trying to hurt doctors who their only goal is to help their patients and help the community. Dr. Monroe helped me during my menopausal changes and also helped my daughter with her female problems. For the last six months I've been sending patients to Dr. Monroe and they have been very pleased with the whole experience. This comment was made to hurt Dr. Monroe and her staff. I wish her many more successes in her career.
Very knowledgeable doctor, nice staff
I went to see Dr. Monroe after visiting a couple of gynecologists. I had decided to leave my gynecologist of many years. He did not want to do anything for my menopause symptoms. One of the docotors wanted to prescribe "synthetic" hormones, the other told me "you do not need hormones". It is unbelievable that in the year 2012, there are still gynecologists not knowing how to treat or refusing to treat menopause. Women, do your own homework, read, ask, search online. Dr. Monroe got me out of depression without "antidepressants" , got me to sleep again without "sleeping pills", and gave me energy and libido back. She started with the Testosterone "pellets". Within 24 hours I started to feel an "awakening", after a week, I started to feel alive again. She then continued with pregesterone pills and a hormone cream cocktail. At 51, I feel like when I was 40. I am not just another woman dealing with menopause pushed aside. Someone cares and understands, there is a better way.
This office is all about empowering women to take charge of their health in order to feel better. Dr. Monoe turned my life around. For the first time in years I'm sleeping all night, have more energy, feel like having sex again, no more mood swings or hot flashes either. My weight is starting to drop too. She is keeping my blood sugar and cholesterol under control. I have no idea how she does it. She is great!.
Dr. Monroe is exceptional in that she is very understanding and knowleadgeable. She took care of all my issues with menopause . I feel great and look better too.
It took me 8yrs to find the best female health care provider in Las Vegas:) Getting the necessary health care for my feminine needs had become so very frustrating,adding unnecessary stress to everyday life, especially mine as a fulltime working professional woman,head of household sole provider for my family,as I'm sure so many of my "sisters" can u
I have had dr monroe for over 10 years and she has always treated me great and helped me throughout the years. she is very updated doctor in her knowledge and excellent with taking care of women going through menopause. as a women doctor I feel she understands more than a male doctor would. I highly rtecommend her to my friends and family female members and also gave her a great review to my family physician who has sent other female patients who are suffering through menopause.GREAT DOCTOR!!!!
There few doctors such as Dr. Monroe. Super amart, sweet,considerate and friendly. I will not even think about going anywhereelse. I do not care hw long I have to travel or wait to see her. It is a good sing when an office is busy with just one doctor. It means she takes her time with every patient.Things come up all time and I like they are handled right on the spot. Some docotrs have you come back another time.
Actually I believe she is excellent! Never before I went to a gynecologist that was so personable without being fake. You know the type. She is very f ...
I am so glad I found Dr. Monroe;Although she looks very young for her age, she has many years of experienced in women's health. It is very hard to find a woman doctor who is a hard working mother like myself who understands what I am going through at 50. She made me feel comfortable enough to talk about things that are difficult. She was very understanding and caring. Took care of all my issues. I am starting to feel like the younger woman I once was. She is treating me with bio-identical hormones and other compounding supplements. She is so knowledgeable.
She did my myomectomy. I had great results, no more pain. After 3 months my scar is almost invisible. She has a great bed side manner, is very attentive and answers all of my concerns and questions.I highly recommend her.
I had a wonderful visit in spite of my condition. Dr. Monroe treated me with dignity and compassion. She seemed very caring and knowlegeable
I have never seen any Dr. or Drs office act so unprofessional in my life. I use to work in a hospital for ten years & have also worked in a couple of Dr. offices & Dr. Monroe (if u can call her that) & her staff are the worst. Her & her receptionist & the people she has work for her are rude to the extreme & uncaring, suppose to be professionals I have very dealt with. I have been a patient with Maribel E Monroe for aprox. 8 plus years. I would not recommend her to treat even a family pet. I was suppose to have surg. with her & spent the money & time to have blood work, etc done & then 4 days before my surgery she sent me a Express Letter informing me that she was cancelling my surgery. And, then saying I was welcome to request my Medical Records & place myself under the care of another physician. All this & no explanation why she was cancelling my surg. Her receptionist & back office would not tell me why either. The only thing I can come to the conclusion of since she doesnt have the professionalism to tell me why, is that I canceled the bladder surg. of the Dr. she had recommended to me, Dr. Grigoriev. I had researched the surg. that Dr. Grigoriev was to perform on me & found out there are a lot of complications with it so I cancelled the bladder surg. on Mon. & on Thurs. I got the letter from Dr. Monroe saying she is cancelling my surg. The reason I believe she canceled my surg. is because I found out from a hospital stafff when I went for my lab work for my surg. that Mon., they are dating. I guess she is upset that I cancelled the surg. with her boyfriend. Regardless of why she cancelled my surg., she could have been human enough to let me know why. If you dont want to be treated like you are not human dont go & see her.. Horrible bedside manner! This is how I got treated after being a patient for 8 yrs.
When I first entered Dr. Monroe's office, I was immediately taken aback by the sign on the glass window that read, "Do not tap or open the window" (or something to that effect). So, I waited there until someone opened the window. Being my very first visit to her office, I was not welcomed warmly. I found the receptionist to be a little calloused in her dialogue with me. After she gave me the initial paperwork to complete and I finally sat in the waiting room, I was confused by all the plastic surgery posters and the plastic surgery video that was playing on the t.v. When I went back to the receptionist with my paperwork, I asked, "Is Dr. Monroe a gynecologist?" I was surprised when the receptionist said yes. When I met Dr. Monroe for the first time, she was very brief and didn't seem appreciative of my patronage by not welcoming me. She quickly did a breast exam, and took my pap, and that was it. She seemed anxious to leave. Two weeks later, I've been trying to contact her office for test results and no one except the answering service picks up!!! I will not be giving Dr. Monroe my business again.
I question whether Dr. Monroe is actually a trained medical professional.
I have been a ptient of Dr. Monroe for almost seven years and I would wouldn't see any other Gyn. She does not rush you....she really listens to your concerns and takes them seriously. Dr. Monroe correctly diagnosed quite a few of my medical problems. Her staff is prompt and caring also. I hope I never have to change gynocologists.
I had an irregular mammogram (2 masses were found) and she never notified me. Three months later I had to pick up the results from the radiologist to find out my results. When you call her office, they have the service on or the phone will ring for 5 minutes, then someone answers and hangs up!! This also happened to the radiologist who was trying to get a referral for me to have a repeat mammogram. Her bedside manner is horrible. Instead of telling me I was "overweight," she told me I WAS FAT!! Her exact words. I had to have a breast biopsy and she never called me once to tell me the results. I reseived a boiler-plate letter 2 weeks later stating my biopsy results were "NORMAL." I had to take it upon myself to see a breast surgeon to find out what I am supposed to do with these 2 grape-size masses in my breast. Her office also has frosted glass window they keep closed and there is a note that states not to knock on the window. So I had to wait 10 minutes before anyone even knew I was there. STAY AWAY FROM THIS DOCTOR!!! SHE AND HER STAFF ARE THE WORST. If you don't want to see or communicate with your patients, then you should not be in business!

5 Levels of Leadership
As a Head Strength and Conditioning coach, Owner, etc. you have the privilege to lead a department. However, once you reach that point you often realize how much you don't know about leading. We spend years studying the physiology and mechanics of the human body, but rarely get trained on how to lead people. That is why I try to read at least one Leadership book a month. In "The 5 Levels of Leadership" by John Maxwell. He defines the five levels as: Position - Rights, people follow you because they have to. Permission - Relationships, People follow you because

PENNINGTON — Junior forward Christie Clune-Persichetti still doesn't know if she's earned more playing time for her Hopewell Valley High school girls' soccer team, despite scoring the lone goal in the Bulldogs' impressive 1-0 victory over previously unbeaten Steinert at Hopewell Valley's Ackerson Field yesterday.
Clune-Persichetti came off the bench in the showdown with the Spartans, but she made the most of her playing time, scoring in the 28th minute of the first half what turned out to be the game's lone tally. The win was huge for the Bulldogs, who dropped a heart-breaking, last-minute goal to Notre Dame for their only loss of the season.
"Today was mostly a group effort, because obviously throughout the whole game it was a battle to the end," Clune-Persichetti said. "I'm glad to do it (score a goal), because every year that we've played them, it's just been a non-stop battle, and we've been like rivals in some way.
"So it was kind of nice to come out here, and we played a great two halves, and obviously came to compete, and they did so as well, but obviously we were able to put one away to get the win."
For Clune-Persichetti, it was her second goal of the young season, but she wasn't quite sure what happened on her game-winner. "On my goal, I stole the ball off the defender, but I didn't see the goal," the forward said with a laugh. "I wasn't looking at the goal, I just hit it. I don't know how far out I was either."
That didn't matter, because she struck the ball well and got it up in the air high enough to put it close to the crossbar, where Spartans goalie Briyanna Femia couldn't possibly stop the shot for the score.
The Bulldogs' win helped erase the memory of their loss to Notre Dame on Thursday.
"We all worked so hard to come back and tie the game the other day against Notre Dame, and we were so pumped, and then unfortunately they scored in the last minute," Clune-Persichetti said. "I was just glad I got to play a part today because we needed this win. And I didn't start today and haven't yet this season. I don't think I'll start any time soon just because I scored. We all share playing time, and we've got a lot of subs, and our whole team's really strong. So we just alternate, and it's a group effort.
"I may play sometimes, but it's no different than when some of my teammates are playing."
Steinert was the more aggressive team in the first half, as it outshot the Bulldogs 6-4 in the first half, but Clune-Persichetti's goal turned out to be the only shot that made the mark, as Hopewell goalie Shelby Butler earned the shutout by turning aside eight Spartan shots on goal.
"It was a good win — we needed it," said Bulldogs coach John McGinley. "And obviously Steinert (was) undefeated and having a great season and we were coming off a tough loss to Notre Dame and bounced back and get a W.
"In the second half, we knew we gave up that late goal to Notre Dame, and we were trying to be persistent, and knew we couldn't give them anything the whole second half. You want to score, obviously, but if we don't let them out of the zone, they can't score, and we were just really harping on that at halftime and during the game."
McGinley was impressed with his goal-scoring super-sub as well.
"Christie's gotten some minutes here and there, and today I actually put her in to see what she could do and give us a little spark, and she played fantastic" McGinley said of Clune-Persichetti's play. "That's what she can do, and once we get play like that from her, she'll be playing more and keep on scoring goals."
Steinert coach Aimee Turnbull thought that her team, particularly the defense, played well.
"I thought we played well in spurts," she said. "I thought in the first half, we battled nicely, but they owned the second half. I thought our defense and (goalie) Briy (Femia) had a great game. I thought Kaity Gmitter had a great game. So I want to look at this game from a positive side that we're making strides on the defensive side, because we were on our heels a good part of the second half, and they handled themselves nicely. There's no excuse.
"We battled nicely in the first half, but in the second half, we just came out flat, and we remained flat for a good 30 minutes."
Steinert (5-1) 0 0—0
Hopewell Valley (4-1) 1 0—1
Goal — HV: Clune-Persichetti. Saves — S: Femia 8; HV: Butler 7. Shots — S: 12; HV: 14.

The St. Tammany SALT (Seniors and Law enforcement Together) Council will present the Spring Senior Security Seminar for Senior Adults, ages 50-plus, on March 19 at the Slidell Memorial Hospital Founders Building, 1150 North Robert Blvd. in Slidell. Caregivers also are welcome.
SALT Chairman Ralph Oneal said the free program will start at 10 a.m. and finish at 2 p.m., and will include lunch from Dickey's BBQ. "This is the first seminar of the year, and our Emergency Preparedness seminar for 2014," he said.
The event will feature presentations by delegates from the American Red Cross, Louisiana State Police, St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office and the SALT Council.
"This program is refreshed each year to include new ideas and review standard emergency preparedness information, but it is distinct from other presentations because it is tailored to meet the needs of senior adults by addressing issues significant or unique to them," said Oneal.
The program will feature guidance on preliminary preparation, evacuation vehicle readiness, evacuation procedures, making your residence secure when you evacuate and preparing for your evacuation destination.
The event is catered and is limited by space to 60 people, making preregistration a necessity.
Those who want to register online may find the registration link on the SALT website at http://stsalt.org/Events.html. Others may register by email to email@example.com or by calling the SALT Events Message Center at 985.809.5455 and leaving a name and call-back number so a SALT member can make contact to complete the preregistration.
"We will maintain a waiting list when we reach the maximum seating, so we encourage anyone who registers but then has to cancel to call us so we can accommodate others on the list," said Mr. Oneal.
The SALT Council is in its 12th year serving St. Tammany Senior Adults, and is seeking volunteers and sponsors. Anyone interested should contact the SALT Council at 985.809.5450.

This marvelous volume was prepared at the time of a major exhibit of expatriate American Man Ray's work in Paris last year. No matter how many of his Dada and surreal images, erotic nudes or portraits you may have seen, this book has fresh work of a quantity and quality that conveys an astonishing range of technique and imagination. Many of the pictures evoke with great wit the Paris of the 1920s. A shirtless Man Ray (he is present in many of his photographs, occasionally in drag) has a rope around his neck and fondles a pistol. A pipe-smoking man has a five-pointed star shaved in the back of his head. Marcel Duchamp is a bearded Adam with a bejeweled nude Eve. An elegant nude woman at a printing press is smeared with printer's ink. Wood dolls are photographed in obscene poses. Some of the fashion photographs are sublime, and there are sharp, vivid portraits of Picasso, Miró, T.S. Eliot, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Stravinsky, Giacometti and a Dali with a tiny mustache. The text includes an interview with Ray, who died in 1976. He admits his cynical, outrageous stunts and silly titles helped him make a living. It was all for liberation's sake, he says: "When they said I was ahead of my times, I said, 'No, I'm not, I'm of my time, you are behind the times.' " Much of his work still has the surprise of the avant-garde. (Thames and Hudson, $35)

Age Estimation based on Neural Networks Using Face Features
In this paper, the authors propose a methodology based on neural networks to estimate human ages using face features. Due to the difficulty of estimating the exact age, they developed their system to estimate the age to be within certain ranges. In the first stage, the age is classified into four categories which distinguish the person oldness in terms of age. The four categories are child, young, youth and old. In the second stage of the process they classify each age category into two more specific ranges. The uniqueness about their research project is that most of the previous research work does not consider the fine tuning of age as they are presenting in their research.

NEW BRITAIN, Conn. - The Curve entered their recent road trip on a high note, they return to Altoona on anything but one.
With a 13-4 loss to New Britain on Sunday, the Curve completed their six-game road trip without a win. The Curve have been outscored 41-24 on their current six-game slide, which started Tuesday in Trenton.
The Curve, who were one game above .500 a week ago, are now 54-59.
On the road trip, the Curve's bullpen was not dependable, which was the case Sunday at New Britain Stadium.
Prized prospect Gerrit Cole got the start for Altoona. The right hander had to work through a 22-minute rain delay, but managed to go 4 innings.
Cole got a no decision as he allowed two runs on three hits and struck out two batters while walking two. The No. 1 overall pick in last year's MLB draft now has a 3.93 ERA, a 2-4 record and 37 strikeouts in eight starts with the Curve.
Fact Box
Covering the bases
LEADING OFF: The Curve's current six-game losing streak matches their longest of the season. Their first six-game skid occurred from May 8-13.
SAFE AT FIRST: With a 21-37 record away from Peoples Natural Gas Field, the Curve aren't good on the road, but they're especially bad in road games played during the day. With another loss on Sunday afternoon, the Curve are now 2-12 in road day games.
STEALING SECOND: Though they lost by nine, the Curve did hold the lead briefly Sunday. OF Quincy Latimore hit a homer in the third inning to give the Curve a 2-0 lead, it was Latimore's 13th home run of the year, which leads the team.
ROUNDING THIRD: With Gerrit Cole turning in a solid start for Altoona, the Pirates' top draft pick from the 2010 draft is heating up in Bradenton. In his last two starts for the Pirates' High-A affiliate, RHP Jameson Taillon has combined to throw 12 scoreless innings.
HEADING HOME: The Curve return home tonight to start a seven-game homestand. RHP Phil Irwin, who has been the Curve's best starter in the last month, will get the nod against second-place Bowie in the series opener.
- Stephen Pianovich
When Cole left the game, the Curve actually led the game, 2-1, but things quickly turned sour for the visitors.
Mike Colla came out of the bullpen to relieve Cole and though there was just one runner aboard and two outs, the Rock Cats ended up scoring five runs in the fifth inning.
Oswaldo Arcia got the scoring started in the frame with an RBI single, and the other four runs came on one swing. The Rock Cats loaded the bases and Joe Benson cleared them with a grand slam to give his team a 6-2 lead, which it never surrendered. Benson went 3-for-5 on the day and had a total of five RBIs.
Colla (4-5) allowed six runs on five hits in 1 innings and took the loss. Things weren't much better for his bullpen mate Jeff Inman, who came in to pitch in the seventh inning. Inman gave up five runs in 1 innings, and he issued four walks on top of giving up six hits.
In an untraditional move, outfielder Drew Maggi eventually came in to pitch for the Curve. In what was Maggi's first professional appearance on the mound, he got Aaron Hicks to groundout with the bases loaded to end the eighth inning.
During the road trip, the Curve's bullpen had a combined 11.07 ERA and went 0-4.
B.J. Hermsen (9-5) gave up three runs on four hits in six innings and got the win for New Britain.
Game recap
Key player: New Britain CF Joe Benson was 3-for-5 with a five RBIs.
Key play: Benson's grand slam with two outs in the fifth inning broke a 2-2 tie.
Key stat: Curve relievers had a combined 11.07 ERA on the team's six-game road trip.
How they scored
Top 3rd: Cutler walked, scored on Latimore two-run homer (2-0).
Bottom 4th: Aricia doubled, scored on Romero single (1-2).
Bottom 5th: Hicks singled, scored on Arcia single (2-2); Herrmann walked, Colabello walked, both scored along with Arcia on Benson grand slam (2-6).

In the End Coaching Mistakes Kill Cornell
Cornell should walk off the field with their heads held high. They had a great season and Jeff Tambroni is obviously a good coach. But they really blew their chance. And it was some coaching mistakes that are probably most to blame.
Late game coaching mistakes
- With roughly 8 minutes left in the game Cornell was trying to kill time when they were on man-up offense. There was then a 2nd penalty and they were still content to hold the ball. Cornell was only up 1 goal at that point. With a man advantage and 8 minutes left, they should be trying to score, regardless of the size of the lead. They never even attempted a shot on the 1st man advantage. Another goal sure would have helped.
- Not getting a shot off when there is a delayed flag. This is one of the most common mistakes in lacrosse these days - at any level. Where there is a flag down and play-on situation, it's a free shot. Almost any shot is a good shot. If you start paying attention you'll notice how infrequently teams get off shots when there is a play-on penalty. Cornell missed two free shot opportunities. The players should be coach to recognize these situations and shoot the ball!
- Cornell was up 1 goal with about 1:30 left in the game. They had the ball in Syracuse's box and just needed to run out the clock. Cornell's Roy Lang (who Quint Kessenich refered to as awkward) had the ball covered by Abbott. It was clear Abbott was working to take the ball away and that Lang was in trouble. Cornell should have take the timeout. Even if it meant Syracuse put a pole on the ball don't you like any matchup with Seibald, Glynn, or any attackman better?
- With roughly 25 seconds left in the game Cornell was given possession behind their goal to clear the ball. They weren't setup, they pushed the ball up field using a defenseman to try and dodge. Cornell should have taken a timeout and setup a clear. Or even brought Seibald down to run the ball. This was the most obvious mistake at the end of the game.
- [EDIT] - The commenter made a good point which was meant to be on this list. When you get the ball in OT you call a timeout if you don't have the best matchup on the field. No reason to save the TO in OT.
Yes hindsight is 20/20, and being the head coach of a college lacrosse team playing on Memorial day is a monumental task. But making a different coaching decision on any of those three key 4th quarter situations likely wins the game for them.

A jury found a man who has a former felony conviction not guilty of possessing a firearm in Lycoming County Court Friday.
Brad L. Hornberger, 35, who listed an address of 2813 W. Fourth St., according to court records, was arrested at gunpoint and put in handcuffs by state Game Commission officers on May 12, 2011 while hunting turkeys with his then-15-year-old son near Crescent Hill Road in Hepburn Township.
Hornberger served prison time on robbery charges that he pleaded guilty to in 2003.
He testified in court that he took a shotgun from an acquaintance's barn near where he was hunting to protect himself, his son and nearby children from a wounded coyote that he struck with a crossbow.
Felons are prohibited from owning or possessing firearms, by law.
"He made that choice because he felt he was justified to do so," said Hornberger's defense attorney, Kyle W. Rude. "It was a very difficult decision for Mr. Hornberger."
If convicted of the crime, Hornberger could have faced a mandatory minimum of five years in state prison.
Hornberger told jurors he felt he needed to track the wounded animal, fearing it could turn vicious and attack people. He said the bolt fired from his crossbow didn't fatally wound the animal, adding he thought the coyote should be put down humanely.
Anthony L. Ciuca, assistant district attorney, asked Hornberger why he didn't try to find the coyote and shoot it again with his crossbow.
"I felt much more comfortable tracking a coyote with a shotgun than a crossbow," he responded.
Hornberger told Ciuca he would have a better chance of a direct hit with a shotgun. State Game Commission Officers took him into custody before he could do so, however.
Ciuca also asked why Hornberger didn't tell officers at the time of his arrest about the coyote and why he had the shotgun.
"I was extremely scared. I knew I was probably in trouble and didn't want to make it any worse than it was," he said.
Ciuca said Hornberger could have made a different decision other than looking for the wounded animal with a gun.
"You had the chance to call the Game Commission or anybody to assist," Ciuca said.
"I never really thought about that. I just wanted to get the animal," Hornberger answered.
At one point during his testimony, Hornberger choked up recalling his past criminal history.
"It's been 10 years since I've done anything wrong. I'm a good man. What's the point of putting me in prison for five or 10 years?" he said, before Judge Richard A. Gray stopped him.
Hornberger's son, who is now 16, also took the stand. He, too, shed tears as he told about his experience that day when he saw his father being arrested by officers.
"They had him in handcuffs. He was on his knees," he said.
The boy also said he didn't tell officers about the coyote "because I was never in that type of situation."
The jury deliberated for a little more than an hour before they reached a verdict. Some of Hornberger's family clenched their hands in front of their heads before the forewoman delivered the verdict.
Hornberger was found guilty of a summary game commission regulation violation and was ordered to pay a $50 fine.

Himalayan Institute Mexico Grand Opening
On April 29, the Himalayan Institute Mexico held its Gran Apertura—Grand Opening—event. The day was joyous, as the HIM team celebrated the unveiling of nine months of hard work and the community was first able to directly participate in HIM activities.
The day began in the auditorium of the Jonotla City Hall, where over 600 guests attended a breakfast sponsored by the Himalayan Institute. The breakfast was a way of thanking the local community for their support in helping HIM start its work in Jonotla, as well as a means of formally introducing the organization to a large audience.
Students from the local junior high and high school, gardening club, and university were present with their teachers, along with local farmers, women's organizations, leaders of agricultural groups from surrounding towns, and members of the general public.
Before being served breakfast, guests mingled with one another, read informational brochures about the Himalayan Institute Mexico and its mission in Jonotla, and met with HIM staff, while Huapango music (the folk music of the zone) played over loud speakers. The event officially began with a welcome from a member of the Jonotla City Council, followed by a speech from Jonotla Mayor Profesora Teresa Arriaga Mora.
In her speech, she reminded guests that organic agriculture is not a radical new method of farming, but rather consists of the very techniques used by our grandparents. HIM's work in Jonotla is an opportunity for farmers to return to safer, more sustainable agricultural practices. She also asked that members of the community freely share their knowledge and experience with the HIM staff so that HIM may also benefit from learning the traditional methods, uses of local plants, and about the culture of the zone.
Next, HIM Deputy Managing Director John Daskovsky took the microphone to provide some information about the parent organization, the Himalayan Institute, and its work dedicated to holistic health and sustainable living. There was applause from the audience as he said, "We must work together, so that when you pass your land on to your children, you can say, 'This land is even better than when I received it. It is some of the most healthy, fertile land in all of Mexico.'"
After exploring the community center, visitors walked the short distance to the Demonstration Farm where Energy Farming Program Leader Ariszandy Calderon Diaz described the long-term vision for the land.
…a group of farmers investigate the compost bin for themselves.
