Douglas High junior Koko Terada rebounded from a tough round the day before to shoot a career-best 71 on Wednesday at Rosewood Lakes Golf Course to earn a share of second-place at the Northern Division I Region Girls Golf Championship.
Terada, who opened with an 83 on Tuesday, shot 1-under par 71 over the 5,232-yard, par-72 layout and finished with a two-day total of 154 to tie Trae Jones of Spanish Springs for second-place.
The top two teams and five individuals from non-qualifying teams qualified for the NIAA Division I state tournament next week in Las Vegas. This is the third straight year Terada has qualified.
Douglas finished seventh as a team with a 782 total. The Tigers opened with a 396 and came back with an improved 386 on Wednesday.
Spanish Springs successfully defended its region team title with a 630 total. Bishop Manogue improved its score by 19 shots on Wednesday to vault into second-place with a 673.
Note: The Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association's regional tournament was presented by Les Schwab Tire Centers of Northern Nevada. … In addition to Terada, the four other individual state qualifiers were Stacy Ludwig of Wooster (155), Alice Duan (160) and Michelle Duan (161) of McQueen (160), and Kirstin Overmyer of Reno (165).

Cities like Springfield, Boston and Chicago are fighting a common enemy – a surge in youth violence – that threatens the very core of community life.
Newspaper headlines recounting tales of gang violence – and its emotional aftermath – have become so frequent that they seem to define the cities themselves.
Consider the following stories:
In Springfield last week, the parents of slain Central High School basketball star Mario Hornsby Jr. described their devastating loss while expressing forgiveness to 19-year-old Daniel G. Williams III who was sentenced to a 12 to 15-year state prison term for his role in the May 17, 2008 shooting death.
In Boston, a front page story recounted the life and death of 18-year-old gang member Johnny Davis and his mother's anguish over her inability to rescue him from the mean streets of Roxbury.
And in Chicago, the community continued to mourn the vicious beating death of 16-year-old honor student Derrion Albert in an attack that was caught on videotape.
The utter frustration felt by municipal, state and federal law enforcement officials in the face of the crisis of youth violence – and their resolve to reverse the rising tide – was on display last week in Chicago when U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and Education Secretary Arne Duncan pledged federal support to combat the scourge of youth violence.
Specifics on how to stem the tide of youth crime weren't offered.
There was, however, some encouraging news in the war against gangs and street crime in Springfield last week when the Western Massachusetts Gang Task Force homed in on the Mason Square neighborhood, arresting more than a dozen members of the city's most troublesome street gangs.
But victories are often short-lived as gang leaders continue to go after new recruits.
Law enforcement needs increased funding and community cooperation to win the fight against youth crime. And as 17-year old Shanequa Burgess told Holder and Duncan last week: "It's up to us to make a change. All of these adults are doing what they need to do to help us."
Fighting youth crime job for the entire city

Frank Rosenhoover's claim that JoAnn Nardelli's switch from Democrat to Republican was a result of her losing in her bid for county commissioner is so much hot air.
His political life has been devoted to his job as chief shill for the Democratic Party of Blair County.
I knew JoAnn's parents as well as her entire family, and I can say unequivocally that JoAnn was raised with a strong sense of family values that included unbridled love of God, family and country.
I am also ashamed to say I voted for President Obama, because he has done absolutely nothing but put the working Americans, senior citizens, the sick and disabled, our military personnel and all of us who are trying to just make it in this world so far in the hole we'll never get out.
His war against any state that tries to set its own policies in dealing with illegal immigrants speaks for itself. Now he's busy patting himself on the back and taking the credit for the killing of bin Laden. Any of our presidents would have given the order to take him out if they had been sure of his location.
For Obama to take the credit for what our seal team did is akin to Danny Murtaugh taking credit for the Pirates' 1960 World Series win over the Yankees because he told Mazeroski to hit the homer in Game 7. Give me a break.
I pray to God (yes, there are a few of us who still believe in God) that Obama is not re-elected, because, if he is, the lines in our Pledge Of Allegiance "one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all," will be more meaningless than they already are.

Another name for the country of Mexico. It combines the words Shit and Mexico making Shitsico. The country is filled with corruption, poverty and a population of people who lie, cheat, backstab and disregard the laws of the countries they sneak/come to. Therefore, a place where no one wants to live is shit, hence Shitsico.
Julio: I am from Mexico.

Director of Technology and Preservation David Thomas to retire
16 July 2014
David Thomas, Director of Technology and Preservation and Chief Information Officer, is retiring from The National Archives next week after almost 40 years' service.
David joined the Public Record Office in September 1974 after completing a PhD in History and has dedicated his career to developing access to archives and information both in government and the archives sector.
As well as his day job, David has used The National Archives' records to explore a range of historical topics. His earliest research interest was the life of William Shakespeare and David featured in Bill Bryson's book Shakespeare: The World as a Stage.
Clem Brohier, Acting Chief Executive and Keeper, The National Archives, said: 'I'd like to thank David for the 40 years he has given to the development of archives here and in the wider sector. David's contributions have proved invaluable over the years.
'On behalf of everyone at The National Archives, I would like to wish David a happy and healthy retirement. I look forward to reading his future works.'
David is talking about his new book Beggars, Cheats and Forgers today as part of The National Archives' Writer of the Month series, telling the stories of some of the greatest confidence tricksters and fraudsters of the past 200 years.

Around the water cooler
The number of Americans hitting the road this Thanksgiving is expected to increase slightly from a year ago. But they'll take shorter trips to save on gas and other costs as household budgets remain tight.
AAA said Tuesday in its annual Thanksgiving forecast that a stronger economy is needed to spur a bigger jump in holiday travel growth. AAA predicts 43.6 million Americans will travel at least 50 miles from home over Thanksgiving, up just 0.7 percent from 2011.
A dramatic drop in gas prices should help holiday travel. The national average has declined 35 cents per gallon in the past month. AAA expects further declines through the holiday, although the price of gas on Thanksgiving Day should be close to 2011's record of $3.32 per gallon.
Customers not satisfied
Like the national economy, customer satisfaction seems stuck in a holding pattern. And that may mean retailers shouldn't expect a pile of extra gifts under the tree this year.
"In an economy that depends heavily on consumer demand, it is hard to envision rapid growth given a flat trend in customer satisfaction that is coupled with only tentative improvement in wages and employment," said Claes Fornell, founder of the American Customer Satisfaction Index and a professor of business administration at the University of Michigan, in his analysis of the data. The index held steady for the third consecutive quarter, scoring 75.9 out of a possible 100 points.
There's no indication that the unchanged satisfaction levels will slow consumer demand, in his opinion, but they won't rev up spending either.
The uncertain financial environment has made customers particularly sensitive to prices, he said, a fact that may have helped food companies with their individual rankings. Different industry sectors are examined during different quarters of the year.
Highmark affiliation talks
Senior leaders from Highmark Inc. and the West Penn Allegheny Health System held "a very productive session" on Monday "that focused on efforts the parties could take to address the financial condition of WPAHS to secure approval of their affiliation agreement by the Pennsylvania Insurance Department," said Highmark spokesman Michael Weinstein in a press release.
The statement said both parties "realize there are significant issues that must be addressed and that prompt action is essential."
Highmark and West Penn Allegheny have been negotiating an affiliation for more than a year, but the partnership was nearly derailed after WPAHS officials objected to what they called pressure from Highmark to file for bankruptcy to get out from under the health system's near-$1 billion debt obligations.

2,000 volunteers build houses in India
03 November 2006
Lonavla, India: "The biggest challenge of our times is to reduce the gap between the rich and the poor. The rich nations are getting richer and the poor nations are getting poorer. And within nations, the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. We need to address this issue because this divide also creates a communication gap between people," says Jimmy Carter, the former US President and Nobel Peace laureate who is overseeing the construction of 100 houses for the poor in this area of Maharashtra.
With the help of more than 2,000 volunteers from the Americas, Europe and Asia, Carter and his wife Rosalyn are leading the annual Habitat for Humanity Project that will provide the houses to 100 families of this region.
"We have been active in India since 1983, and in 2005 we launched a five-year strategic initiative to provide decent homes to 250,000 poor people by 2010," the former American President said while addressing a round-table with a small group of mediapersons from Mumbai.
Asked about the changes he has seen in India since his last visit to the country, Carter said, "It's really impressive to see India growing so fast, at the rate of 10%. India is blossoming and that's very good. Now the challenge is to ensure that the prosperity is properly shared."
However, the American leader, who has been building houses for the poor around the world, was disappointed by the fact that caste still remains a social problem in India.
Like other volunteers, Carter and his wife too have been working on a house that will be handed over to a local family this weekend.
"It's nice that people from all the world are involved in projects like this," said Carter who has built houses for the tsunami victims in Thailand as well as in India.
On Thursday, apart from the volunteers from around the world, Bollywood heartthrobs John Abraham and Diana Hayden also worked on the pre-fabricated houses at the site.
While the shutterbugs tried to follow the celebrities around the construction site, a team of volunteers from the USS Boxer and four other US Navy ships currently anchored in Mumbai quietly worked on a house at the site.
Known for taking part in social initiatives for the underprivileged around the world, the American sailors were here to lend a hand to the housing project.

Hi everybody,
Online cooking course teacher needed
A family member had a heart attack and I have been trying to get her to eat healthy. Bought Marks book. It was too much information for her. The recipe book was better but for whatever reason she rather ask me what to cook than to look in the book. My guess is that a more social element is needed to get her on board the primal train..
So I decided to try organize a weekly online cooking course. One teacher, 5 students, 1 recipe, done live through web cam. Students need a webcam as well to make it bit more sociable.
Im looking for a chef to hold a weekly course. This is nothing fancy. You just need to:
1. Have some social skills (all women qualify by default on this point)
2. Have a strong and reliable internet connection.
3. Know how to cook at least 3 tasty primal recipes really well.
4. Be reliable as in login at the time of the course (which you can decide to suit your schedule, weekend, evening etc)
Since it will be totally free to join a class I cant make you rich. I would pay for all your food expenses (4 person meal). If I can find someone that is happy with just getting their food paid Ill go with that. If not Ill pay extra if needed to find someone, max $100/hour.
You can just write here in the thread or send me a PM if interested. Youre not signing up for life, any contracts etc. You dont need to hold more than one course if you dont want too.
Dont take it too serious. You will log into skype, have your web cam (ill buy u a good one) point it to your kitchen, cook the meal while explaining to five students what you are doing. They will cook at the same time. 1 hour later its done. Everything else will be handled by me. The date and time is very flexible. The students are not paying so they will have to adapt to your needs.
If I can find a brave chef here, we will set up a date and decide on a recipe. After that Ill post a google form here where any (hopefully) interested MDA members can sign up. The project really need students as well to create the social factor. Otherwize its almost just like a youtube video recipe. The course is not just for people new to primal, its for anyone interested in learning how to cook that recipe. But you do need to be a member on MDA.
If you know any member here on the mda who you think would be a great online chef please let me know so that I can send him/her some flattering messages. Any other thoughts would be very appreciated as well
Thanks for reading. Would love feedback from potential students.

YOUNGSTOWN - The city is bringing back its Violence Interruption Patrols this year with a little help from its friends.
Thirteen of them.
The program, which looks for guns and aims to stop problems before they start, will have help from 13 different agencies when it begins in earnest this weekend.
Article Photos
Youngstown police Chief Rod Foley announces the resumption of the city's Violence Interruption Patrols program on Thursday at a news conference in City Council chambers.
Police Chief Rod Foley said that is the most help the department has ever received in running offshoots of the popular anti-crime program which first began in 2003.
Demaine Kitchen, chief of staff for Mayor Charles Sammarone, said at a news conference to kick off the program that officers will be using information and intelligence gathered by the police department to determine where to put the extra patrols that will be on the streets.
''Everything we do is data driven,'' Kitchen said.
Foley said the primary focus is to target gun crimes and people who carry guns illegally. He said police want to send a message to anyone who would be carrying a gun but shouldn't that extra officers will be assigned to look just for them.
Foley also said he was excited the Mahoning County Sheriff's Office is taking part this year for the first time. A big help, he said, is the recent opening of the full jail by Sheriff Jerry Greene, which will allow for more people to be taken off the streets.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Dave Toepher said his office will also be in close contact with county and city prosecutors to decide where it would be best to charge a person arrested in order to ensure the longest possible sentence.
Toepher said his office will primarily prosecute drug and firearms offenses.
Several representatives of the city's faith based community were on hand as well. The Rev. Lewis Macklin, head of the Youngstown Interdemoninational Alliance, said churches will organize activities to keep young people out of trouble.
By the time the city launched the program last year, it had already recorded 14 homicides. It ended 2012 with 26 homicides, and possibly one more after a man's body was found on the East Side in February who had been reported missing in November.
So far in 2013, the city has recorded three homicides.
Mahoning County Prosecutor Paul Gains said in his all his years in law enforcement he has never seen a bigger crime-fighting coalition than the one assembled to conduct the VIP patrols.
''We are together,'' Gains said. ''We are united in riding this community of these violent criminals.''
The program runs through the Labor Day weekend.

The Naptime Chef for JMcLaughlin Peppermint Hot Fudge SauceKelsey Banfield
Last weekend I had the pleasure of introducing a limited run Peppermint Hot Fudge Sauce line at the JMcLaughlin clothing store in Westport, CT. It was a blast to learn all about the packaged foods world. There is a lot that goes into getting even the most basic foods on shelves. There are so many steps from researching packaging, to finding suppliers to designing labels! Since a lot of you don't live in the neighborhood and can't run out to purchase a jar of this sauce, I am happy to provide the recipe. It's a snap to pull together and is a terrific homemade gift for friends!
Peppermint Hot Fudge Sauce
Makes approximately 5 cups or 4 (9 ounce) mason jars
2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
2 cups heavy cream
8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2 teaspoon pure peppermint extract
1. In a double boiler or heatproof bowl placed over simmer water, stir together cocoa, sugar and salt. Make sure the bottom of the bowl is not touching the simmering water. Immediately add the cream and butter to the dry ingredients.
2. Cook this mixture over the simmering water, stirring constantly to make sure the sauce stays smooth and scraping down the sides of the bowl. Bring to a boil for 1 minute, then remove from the heat once the butter has melted.
3. Allow the sauce to cool for 5 minutes. Then stir in the peppermint extract.
4. This will store well in the refrigerator for up to one month. If giving as gifts, pour the sauce into a sterilized, airtight 9-ounce mason jar.

Despite the plague of violence sickening the city, there is reason for hope in Trenton's future.
PEI Kids has been on the case for 14 years, blazing new trails beyond the detours of crime and the dead ends where too many of the city's youth remain idling and stuck for life.
Times staffer Erin Duffy summed up the work of PEI Kids in a story on the program for kids from 11 to 18 this way: "They work on anger management and de-escalation tactics with teens who have hair-trigger tempers. They role-play, asking young people to place themselves in scenarios and walk through how they would react," Duffy wrote. "But mostly, they talk — about subjects like gang life, loyalty versus snitching or the latest burst of violence on the streets."
And they listen.
Teens who have committed an auto or assault offense are under court order to attend the 16-week program for young offenders run by the Lawrence-based nonprofit. Every Saturday morning for those 16 weeks, participants meet with Rob Fiorello, the juvenile intervention services coordinator for PEI Kids facilitators Mark Parrish, a retired state corrections officer and deacon, and Vertulie Massenet; and volunteers from The College of New Jersey's Bonner Community Scholars program.
Dubbed by some a "miracle worker, Fiorello has a reputation for not giving up on even the toughest cases of kids co-opted by Trenton's gang culture. That's a force, he says, more powerful than it's ever been.
"The city is literally under siege at any given point in time, any moment," says Massenet, from the gangs and violence and gunfire.
Efforts such as the gun-control package under review in the Legislature can help relieve the city of that constant barrage, but grass-roots approaches such as PEI Kids are reaching kids who still have a chance to make choices about their future.
Like Mercer County's drug courts, this program makes individual connections with those at risk rather than condemning them to overcrowded detention centers and prisons. These programs focus on possibility, second chances and goals – and hard work.
It can be literally a life or death struggle to convince kids to turn their backs on the lure of gang life, but the intervention appears to be working. The evidence, as Duffy wrote, is apparent in the relatively low recidivism rate and the program graduates who stop in every week to visit and talk to the younger kids sitting where they once did on Saturday mornings.
In a time of too many doors slamming shut, the open-door policy and philosophy of PEI Kids is essential.

We've all watched the Penguins all season long. Not even at the lowest point of their season did they look as bad as they did on Friday night. This was a 50-win team. A team that was 32-0-4 with the lead going into the third period. There are no answers. Only a long summer of questions ahead if something doesn't get fixed. There is no logic to what we are seeing. None. We weren't there when the Titanic went down, but this scene accurately depicts this series: That one dude even looks like Letang. kdmklmlk We got some stuff after the Read More. –What or who is making this happen? It's a combination of a lot of things. But it has tons to do with Laviolette. Talbot and Laviolette are probably rooming together as Laviolette siphons out every detail of Bylsma's system. Laviolette has planted the Flyers in all the right places on the ice. It's actually kind of scary. The Flyers have used everything to their advantage in this series. The hate of Jagr and Talbot, the underdog role, etc. Passionately yet tactfully, Lavvy has dismantled the Penguins. Look at this video from the first intermission: Just seems way more involved. vid via crossingbroad –The Malkin chirping has officially begun. If the Pens had won these two games, we would all be pumped the Pens are winning with some secondary scoring and saying that "Malkin will come around." The Pens definitely aren't hurting for offense. Laviolette has done a masterful job of eliminating Malkin. Crosby, meanwhile, is chipping in with goals, albeit early first-period goals. —The defense has completely betrayed the Penguins. It's something you can't even begin to argue. The Flyers are capitalizing off mistakes the Pens make, and they are making a shit ton. Example: last night, Martin and Letang both skated up the ice with the puck still in their zone. Flyers broke up a pass, and they had a 2-on-0 down low. No focus at all. Letang, for the second straight year, has shown no composure. None. He has to be so fun to play against. You probably say something about his hair and he freaks out. –Fleury is not making THE save. The defense has turned in a horrible performance thus far, but that doesn't give a goalie with Fleury's track record a Get Out Of Jail Free card. He's shown in the past that he can steal a game or make a clutch save at a crucial time. It just hasn't happened this series. It's something the Pens have needed. And the Flyers have gotten the save from Bryz. He made two last night. One on Letang: And he made another huge save on Sully late. –At least the power play started making some moves. –Claude Giroux. Holy shit. –Flyers signed Double J for the goal he scored last night. –Bylsma has to do something. He's all about the Pens getting to their game, and it works more often than it doesn't. But he doesn't have a secondary system to turn to when things simply aren't working? Or at least tweak the gameplan to adapt to what the opposition is doing? He has to be smart enough to identify the problem and not be too proud to switch his thinking. We hate pointing out problems but not providing a solution. It's a dick thing to do. But if we had the solution, we would be coaches in the NHL. –The Pens are on track to be unceremoniously bounced from the playoffs for the third straight season under Bylsma. –The Pens are now 1-5 in playoff games at CONSOL. Their only win came in Game One against the Lightning last season. Not sure that was even a game. Going further back, the Pens lost Game 7 at home against Montreal. The Pens need the road. –No rest for the weary. Pens got an afternoon game coming up on Sunday. Series could be over by Sunday night. Or there will be a pulse. it isn't like the Penguins are getting blown out. –You may still be jammed up about this game. We are, too. We'll feel better as game time for Game 3 approaches.

Item Description
Top Bar Hive Construction Plans Now you can build the same top bar hive I am selling in my other auctions and my ebay store. Follow the easy step by step instructions in this 34 page manual which includes many sketches and pictures! You are buying a printed manual, not an ebook! More info about the top bar hive: The topbar beehive is not a new concept. Historical reference to the top-bar hive date back to the 1600's. Most of today's top bar bee hives are derived from work in the 1960's. It was perfected for use in Kenya, Africa, and is often referred to as the Kenya Hive. Today it is also used in many other developing countries for it's simple design and cost effective management methods. In recent years it has also become more popular in the United States. The traditional Langstroth beehive consists of several boxes (supers) and numerous other parts that are either difficult to build or expensive to buy. In addition to the beehive, the Langstroth hive requires many other pieces of equipment to harvest honey and manage your bees. Not so with the top bar hive as you can read below. Simple and Maintenance-Free The top bar hive has only a few components: the hive body (box), 20 to 30 top bars (frames), and a lid. That's all you will ever need. Compare that to your Langstroth hive. Bees build their own comb which eliminates the need for costly frames. The top bars are re-used after the harvest. Non-Invasive Design The top bar hive is healthier for bees. To check your bees, you will not have to take the whole thing apart. Hence, your bees will be less disturbed by your presence and checking of the comb. Easy Harvest To harvest your honey, you simply remove the bars with honeycomb. Unlike traditional methods, you won't have to take the hive apart and disturb the bees as much. Not only is the top bar hive less stressful to harvest for you, it also does not disturb the bees as much. In addition to honey, the top bar hive has more beeswax to harvest. You also do not need a honey extractor/centrifuge or uncapping knife which saves you thousands of dollars. Smoking is completely unnecessary and many top bar hive users do not wear protective clothing either. (For the beginner I do advise to use some kind of protection, gloves and veil as the minimum!) Once you remove the honey comb, the bees will go about their business as usual. Try that on a Langstroth hive. Healthier Bees The top bar hive is designed for the bees' optimal living conditions. This makes a colony much stronger and enables it to fight off pests and diseases on their own, much better than in a Langstroth hive. Besides healthier bees this will save you hundreds of dollars in medication as well as disappointment. Why doesn't everyone use top bar hives? The top bar hive is not designed for maximum honey production, although there have been reports otherwise. For the hobby beekeeper a few pounds less honey are well worth the ease of management. You will harvest more beeswax with a top bar hive though. Any hobbyist should have more of an interest in keeping healthy bees than in squeezing out a few more pounds of honey from a stressed, overworked colony. With just one top bar hive, you will still have more than enough honey for your whole family and friends. If you have any questions, please include your email address!

Help build trust with Arab Israelis
The ordinary individual, too, has a role to play in the peace process
Last month we celebrated the 60th anniversary of the birth of the state of Israel. We paid tribute to its numerous spectacular achievements. We congratulated those responsible. Yet the fact that Israel still lives in an area of strife and has failed to build a lasting peace in the region casts a long shadow over those celebrations.
Of course, there are failings on all sides, and a huge number of words are directed — and wasted — in trying to establish where the greater fault lies. One of the unique tragedies of the conflict in the Middle East is that almost everyone knows what the ultimate answer must be. One day, there will be two states. Their boundaries will not differ greatly from those which were almost agreed at Taba, a few short years ago. Compromises will be reached on the right to return and Jerusalem.
The biggest obstacle to this settlement is the lack of trust on both sides. In Israel, there is fear that a Palestinian state will be used as a base for further deadly attacks on its citizens. On the Arab side, there is fear that Israel will never agree to a viable Palestinian state, that it will not withdraw from most of its settlements on the West Bank and that it will never agree to a just peace.
On one level, these fears and disagreements can only be resolved by governments and statesmen, in what is called the peace process. Yet on another level, the opportunity for the ordinary individual is immense. If the underlying problem is lack of trust, then surely everything possible should be done to build trust. And here, the ordinary individual can certainly play his or her part.
If it can be established and demonstrated that Jews and Arabs can live and work together, on equal terms, surely this can go a long way towards the creation of the trust which is so essential to the creation of peace.
The only place where Jews and Arabs have the opportunity to live and work together now is in the state of Israel. Israel's Arab citizens account for one-fifth of its population. Israel's Declaration of Independence calls on "the Arab people living in Israel to play their part in building the state on the basis of full and equal citizenship and due representation in all its institutions".
What we here in the UK can do is to help Israelis fulfil these aspirations, to support projects which encourage Jews and Arabs to live and work together and to build that degree of trust between the two communities which can be so important in the wider context of peace.
Most Jewish and Arab children in Israel, for example, are educated in separate school systems. In the Arab system, Arabic, English and Hebrew are mandatory subjects and are integral to the curriculum. Yet, despite Arabic being an official state language, Arabic is not an essential component of the Jewish school curriculum. Generations of Jewish schoolchildren are thus unable to converse with their Arab neighbours.
With the support of the Haifa and Karmiel municipalities and the Ministry of Education, the Language as a Cultural Bridge programme seeks to close this communications gap. It was preceded by the development of a unique curriculum combining Arabic language and Arab culture, and teacher-training seminars.
In February 2005, a pilot programme was implemented in 15 Year 6 classes in Haifa and Karmiel. In this current school year, this is being implemented in Years 7-9 classes in 100 schools in the Haifa district, schools in the north, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, the south, and in several kibbutzim and agricultural communities across Israel.
Living and working together is another crucial element in building trust. Encouragingly, there are many involved in this field, but to be effective their efforts need to be co-ordinated. Since 2001, the Coexistence Network has offered support for and co-ordinated activity in this area.
Valuable lessons have been derived from the Northern Ireland experience. The events of October 2000, in which 13 Arab Israeli citizens were killed by Israeli policemen, severely undermined mutual trust. Prompted by the State Commission of Inquiry into the October tragedy, the
Community Police Programme was created to re-establish non-hostile relations between the police and the Arab community by adopting a culturally sensitive and equitable approach towards Israel's Arab citizens. The programme has benefited from the advice of Sir Ronald Flanagan, Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Constabulary. As a result, 20 Israeli police commanders visited Northern Ireland to learn from its community police model.
Economics has a part to play, too. The Poverty Report compiled by the National Insurance Institute in 2004 found that over 40 per cent of the country's Arab citizens were living in poverty, compared to 14.9 per cent of the country's Jewish citizens. One contributory factor is the low employment rate of Arab citizens.
Based on the belief that the integration of Israel's Arab population into the Israeli economy will enhance the socio-economic status of Israel's Arabs as a whole and act as a platform for Jewish-Arab co-operation, the Economic Development Venture was developed in 2007. This is aimed primarily at promoting the employment of Arab women and their integration into the Israeli labour market. It seeks to promote fair representation of Arab employees in the civil service, increase their participation in the government and expand employment of Arab academics in the private sector.
Every one of these initiatives — and many more — are supported, and in many cases were originated by, the Abraham Fund, of which I am a patron. The Fund works in partnership with the government and government agencies. It is a non-partisan, non-profit organisation. It is, every day, making a difference.
The building of trust between the Jewish and Arab citizens of Israel is not something that can be achieved overnight. It will take time, determination and hard work. Nor will it, of itself, guarantee peace in the Middle East. But by helping to break down one of the major obstacles to the achievement of peace, it can make a significant contribution towards the achievement of that objective.
Michael Howard, former Conservative Party leader, is MP for Folkestone & Hythe. The UK Friends of the Abraham Fund Initiatives launched this week. Its website is abrahamfund.org.uk

U.S. City Budget Woes Grow as Tax Revenue Drops, Report Says
U.S. local property taxes fell in the first three months of 2012, following two quarters of growth, according to a report from the Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government.
The drop raises the prospect of "serious budget problems" for municipalities because it coincides with employee benefit costs soaring and states cutting local aid, wrote Lucy Dadayan, a senior policy analyst at the institute who co-wrote the report.
"This weakness in property tax revenue comes at a tough time for local governments," Dadayan said today in a statement. "Budget pressures are coming at local governments from every angle and affect both the revenue and spending side of municipal and school budgets."
Local property-tax collections fell 0.9 percent in the first three months of this year, according to the institute. It marked the sixth consecutive quarterly decline when collections are adjusted for inflation, the Albany, New York-based institute said. Property taxes are the most significant revenue source used to finance local services such as K-12 education, police and fire protection.
Adjusted for inflation, local property taxes declined by 2.8 percent in the first quarter of 2012, the institute said.
The weakness is most acute in states such as California that have experienced the largest declines in housing prices, according to the report. Three California cities have sought bankruptcy protection in the last month.

Modesty includes a few more things for O than it does for the population at large, although maybe not so many more than during the 50's in the US, when their standards were much more like O.
And these are the facts when you finally start looking at this issue more closely. These are insidious and foreign drugs. If not, PREMARIN is -your- newsgroup. Well different things do work and I have seen one ligature knead 3 robaxin in the world yes, beg to differ. Glad you enjoyed it.

Question on Premarin - alt. PREMARIN is what PREMARIN is all fun and games. Just out of figurehead shamus. The major forms of conjugated estrogens available? A hormonally equivalent PREMARIN is Estrace 1 mg pills. High PREMARIN is a suggestion to him regarding my preference of hormones we are speaking of here are able to possibly make a personal comment on this newsgroup.
Since I am one of the few who openly admits to self administering hrt and I have stated that I keep my Dr.
There are many other positive effects which the conjugated estrogens have shown in medical studies which haven't been proven yet in long-term double blind studies. I see you as an enlightened medical procdure, why not for pressure from without, The pressure came from the golden years, and just used as a public health crisis? Then maybe PREMARIN could direct all the FYI information content so that he/she can inform his/her patients of their use. Thanks for the drug.
My endo knows what optimization I am taking, and it doesn't bother him at all.

In a large number of equine practitioners and asking them for any possible beneficial effects for Premarin : Nausea, vomiting, pain, cramps, swelling, tenderness in the work place.

Appalling that this reminds me of comatoseness that happened to you, perhaps. A receipt indicated PREMARIN bought the tablets in boulder.

The operator of the SEPTA trolley that crashed Aug. 23 at 69th Street Terminal failed to respond adequately immediately prior to the accident
because he was distracted, according to a SEPTA report.
Testimony yesterday at a National Transportation Safety Board hearing into the crash showed that an unidentified man was sitting on the operator's stool near operator Albert Cheshire in the front of the car. Two passengers said the man was sketching Cheshire and talking with him.
"The presence of this individual and the conversation with the operator severely impaired the benefit of privacy on the operating platform on August 23, 1986," the SEPTA report said.

Corned beef for St. Patrick's Day
Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! I look forward to St. Patrick's Day because it's the only time of year that corned beef is on sale. I love corned beef. I'm not sure why. There's something about this salty, fatty meat, mixed with potatoes and cabbage that is really addicting.
I make corned beef the traditional way: boiled with potatoes and cabbage. I like how the cabbage and potatoes absorb the corn beef juices.
It seems no matter how big of a piece of meat I buy, it disappears so quickly. I wish it would last longer, since it takes so long to make.
Corned Beef with potatoes and cabbage
1. Fill a large pot with water, enough to cover the corned beef. When you open your package of corned beef, be sure to pour the juices inside the package into the pot of water. Also, take the package of seasoning that usually accompanies the corn beef, and open it up and put it in with the pot of water as well.
2. Cook the corned beef at a medium boil. I usually will have the lid half on to keep the water level from getting too low. The cooking time is approximately 1 hour for each pound of corn beef. Mine was four pounds, so I cooked it for almost four hours.
3. About half an hour before the corned beef is done, add potatoes (I usually keep them as big chunks like a stew, cutting each potato into quarters). About fifteen minutes before corn beef is done, add in cabbage.
7 Responses to "Corned beef for St. Patrick's Day"
I hate to be that person…but its "corned beef" not "corn beef". Corned refers to the brining process the meat undergoes.
Eeek. I've been saying and writing it wrong all this time?? I can't believe I didn't realize my mistake. How embarrassing. Thanks for correcting me!
hi kirbie
growing up filipino, i've only had CANNED CORNED BEEF (we make ours with tomatoes, onions, peas and potatoes). yes, caned. sad but true. so deprived. only recently have i had actual corned beef, like a real slab of meat that was brined, etc. by the way, hooley's in rancho san diego makes great corned beef tacos.
oops, i meant 'canned' not 'caned'.
i is a college student.
hehe. Boyfriend has told me similar stories. He grew up eating the canned stuff too. Now he buys the actual corned beef and asks me to make it for him. Corned beef tacos sounds yummy!

Sixteen of Amarillo's police officers will now have the option of getting Medicare coverage. Due to a federal law, the officers had not been allowed to join the health insurance program.
The City Commission last week voted to allow the officers the option of joining Medicare. The law didn't require employees hired before April 1, 1986, to pay into the Medicare system.
Dean Frigo, finance director for the city, said if even one officer opts into the system, it will save the city money.
"The more we look at the employee health plan at age 65, most of our employees can go on to Medicare and then Medicare becomes the primary payer. If all the employees could go on Medicare, then that would save us some money," he said.
Frigo said if all 16 opt into the system, the city would pay out $92,000, saving $265,000.
Alan Taylor, Amarillo city manager, said officials have been looking at the issue for a year.
"It's part of our effort whether it's health insurance or whatever. We're always looking for places to save money," Taylor said. "City employees who retire are allowed to continue their health care coverage as self-insured if they pay the premium. In the case of these 16 police officers, because they haven't contributed to Medicare, they can't ever qualify to receive Medicare."
Mayor Debra McCartt said the move is a good one.
"Medicare has a lot of benefits that we all work for. We should all be able to have it there if we choose to," she said.

To Dr. Thomas Hanna, the Indy 500 Means Mostly Potential Patients: 33 Drivers and 350,000 Fans
As Speedway medical director, Hanna commands a volunteer medical staff of 285, manning 19 ambulances, two helicopters, two vans, a 22-bed hospital, three subhospitals and seven first-aid stations. They'll treat not only injured drivers but also victims in the so-called "redneck Woodstock" throng of about 350,000. "If you take a city of 350,000 people and estimate the amount of medical work in a day, then that's our job," says Hanna. "Only we have far more problems because our city is packed within a confined area, and the fans are in a holiday spirit. There are also 33 people driving race cars around the place."
Hanna and his colleagues begin work weeks before the race when they give each driver a full physical. Hard contact lenses and dentures are barred; so are diabetic entrants, because a driver's insulin reaction once caused a crack-up during a practice. Hanna can order drivers off the track—he still complains about how Janet Guthrie failed to alert him to her last-minute injury and drove the 1978 race with a fractured wrist. "Drivers understand we are there to protect them," Hanna says. "But they also believe nothing terrible will ever happen to them. The only thing they fear is fire."
Actually, "It's the fans who give us fits," Hanna says. "We once had a man come in here with a lit cigarette stuck in his inner ear canal. It blew in there, he said. A pig bit off a woman's toe one year. You name it, we get it." During an average May, his staff treats some 2,000 people. But, thanks to increased on-site treatment facilities, there has not been a fatal heart attack among Speedway spectators in three years, though Hanna's staff treats 10 or so coronaries each May. Nor has there been a fatal crash in the race since 1973.
In 1960, however, the year Hanna took over as medical director, there was the worst disaster in Indy history. A rickety, 10-tiered scaffold built by some fans near the first turn collapsed, killing two and injuring 115. "We learned a lot from that," Hanna reckons. "We don't allow scaffolds anymore." In 1964 drivers Eddie Sachs and Dave MacDonald burned to death when their cars collided. "The big ball of fire went up into the stands and burned 30 spectators," Hanna remembers. "We handled it, but my people never get used to seeing such immense destruction." Hanna's close friend, driver Pat O'Connor, died in a 1958 crash during the first lap. "It was the most painful moment of my career," he says, "when I had to identify the body."
A graduate of the Indiana University School of Medicine, Hanna has two grown sons and a daughter with his wife of 48 years, Dorothy. He maintains a private general practice all year, seeing his own patients at night and in spare moments during his annual month-long stint. His labor at the Speedway is unpaid. "This is my life's work," he says. "There is no place where one can have a better opportunity to practice mass medicine." The job does, however, interfere with his love of racing. Because he has to stay in the Speedway hospital, Hanna hasn't had even a glimpse of the track during a race in 20 years.

Thoughts to share from White's Creek gorge.
In truth, I don't expect much from John McCain, who has both admitted notknowing much about economics and denied having ever said that. Anyway, latelyhe's been busy demonstrating that he doesn't know much about the Middle East,either.
He knows a hell of a lot about stealing the hard earned money of decent people (google: Keating 5). Probably knows a few good ethnic jokes, and I heard he plays a mean hand of rummy.Other than that, I can't think of even one redeeming quality with the possible exception of the fact that the extreme Right hates him.

Socialmedia.com is a social advertising network. Buddy Media is a social media consulting and analytics company (i.e. they have clients!). Today, they have announced a partnership that allows people to buy advertising and access analytics to make the most of their social media campaigns.
They're calling it social 'app-vertising' and brands like FedEx and New Balance have already been privy to the service.
"Advertising in social media is about getting users to engage with a brand's messaging in a way that scales and is measurable," says Seth Goldstein, CEO of Socialmedia.com. "Our partnership with Buddy Media simplifies the buying and execution of campaigns that get users to interact with brands."
"In many ways, the app is the new ad unit, and many marketers are beginning to realize that," says Michael Lazerow, CEO of Buddy Media. "With the launch of the BuddyBrain and our partnership with SocialMedia.com, advertisers and brand marketers now have a one stop shop to launch their social app-vertising campaigns and reach over 500 million people on social networks."
Despite all the dark news from Wall Street, social networking and its projections remain hot, hot, hot! Yesterday, I reported how social networking is taking share from dating and pornography (who would have thought?)!
This partnership seems like a smart one, especially for those of you concerned about how you measure social media campaigns.
What do you think of this announcement? Comments, please!

I may have accidentally reinvented a fixed Krueger flap.
This, Wicki informs me is a, "Hinged flap which folds out from under the wing's leading edge while not forming a part of the leading edge of the wing when retracted. This increases the camber and thickness of the wing, which in turn increases lift and drag.
Invented by Werner Krüger in 1943 and evaluated in Goettingen, Krueger flaps are found on many modern swept wing airliners."
I am so happy that you found the Ugly LE to be interesting.
Personally I would not dignify this as an 'experiment.'
It's more of an observation of a result I had not anticipated. It could of course lead to experimentation, but as I have mentioned above the work may have already been done.
Warm vibes from the other end of the globe...
My backyard mechanic definition of a stall is when the wing produces less lift then what the plane weighs. Like every time a plane lands.
A wing often produces less lift than the weight of the plane and most often a stall is not involved.
Every time the plane loses height it's because weight is more than lift.
A stall occurs when the air-flow separates and causes a sudden and large loss of lift.

doesnt necessarily involve overcoming weight or losing height either.
That link does not work for me.
My post was in reply to the statement, "My backyard mechanic definition of a stall is when the wing produces less lift then what the plane weighs. Like every time a plane lands."
It took me back to my youth at the Aero Club when I offered a similar definition of a stall. An instructor very firmly pointed out my error.

from a backyard definition all the above statements are acceptable, but you know me...
i am fascinated by the 1/4 vs 1/3 throttle part and also the slow speed. im obsessed with slow flight and its the main feature of kf i enjoy. im trying to figure a way to work that "ugly flap" into my single surface wings. it looks like much more than just increasing parasitic drag from your description.
dick, hope your up and about again soon.
Here is an illustration of the Krueger flap ripped from Wiki.
You may want to try a strip of foam glued under the LE. If you give it a go please report back on your results.
A KF on a KF, how very cute...
I've come through the operation without any real pain. Just swollen and sore and tight muscles. There are many people here who have been this route. I never knew that getting old could be this much fun!
Thanks for your good wishes.

lol! good to see the drugs havent dulled your sense of humor.
after looking at all those diagrams im thinking it might be time to re-visit steps on the lower surface again. previous tests showed more benefit on the top but a short thin adjustable step on the bottom hinged at le might be interesting. reports say weather is warming up this week and wind dying down so maybe ill put something together in the next few days.
i just finished up experiments with chisel shaped airfoils this weekend to settle discussions in the bernoulli/newton thread. after i get a chance to download those photos to the forum ill start playing with wings again. this is fun stuff.

I would like to make a couple of observations upon stepped airfoils based upon research accessible on internet (without having to pay), and comments from people who have personal experience with them.
Perhaps because of the somewhat extravagant claims claims made for the KF airfoil when it was introduced, it seems to be subject to both positive and negative bias. In the 1974 paper by E. Lumsdaine et al it was observed that: "If an airfoil must operate continuously at an angle of attack higher than 20 degrees, the upside-down (step on the top) Kline-Fogleman airfoil with a fairly thick step (approximately 0.25 chord) appears to have an advantage with a higher CL and a higher Cl/Cd than a flat plate or the NACA airfoil" However, the opening statement in the conclusions is: "From the scope of this test program it can be concluded that the stepped airfoil offers little or no advantages over the conventional airfoil or flat plate, and in most configurations is decidedly inferior in terms of both lift and lift/drag ratio" Since the tests were done at Re = 60,000 and 135,000, this conclusion could not apply to full scale aircraft.
Mr. Stackhouse's commented that "The KF airfoils have been studied by numerous people in numerous places, and the STRONG consensus is that they have a poor L/D. And we're not talking a minor deficit, some of the studies indicate a loss on the order of 30% compared to more conventional sections. A major part of the problem is that the "steps" in the airfoil do not retain the vortex that is supposed to maintain a smooth flow path above it." I have only been able to find evidence of two studies focusing on stepped airfoils for Re < 200,000. In light of this I responded by saying "Unfortunately there has been very little wind tunnel testing of stepped airfoils in the range of Re numbers for which a laminar separation bubble could be considered a normal phenomena. A study in 1974 tested 14 sections, of which only 9 were stepped airfoils, 60,000 < Re < 135,000 - and the stated conclusions diverged significantly from the discussion of results and the data??? Of the stepped profiles tested, half had the step on the top, half on the bottom, and the only other variable tested was the position of the step - all profiles shared a sharp wedge shape back to the step. A stepped airfoil might be useful for controlling a laminar separation bubble, but until all parameters are tested we simply do not know. I received a predictably condescending reply from Mr. Stackhouse - but that could be because he seems to take it as a personal affront if an amateur should be so presumptuous as to have an opinion, or formulate an hypothesis, in the arcane area of aerodynamics. A common reaction among experts for whom the need to be RIGHT has surpassed the desire to understand.
In lieu of wind tunnel testing that examines all parameters relevant to model airplanes, what we have are the observations of numerous modellers who have used stepped airfoils on their models. I don't think that these observations should be dismissed because they are subjective. Science does not start with rigorous testing; it starts with a casual observation which gives rise to a hypothesis. It is very likely that stepped airfoils have some utility for smaller model airplanes flying at low speeds - otherwise modellers would not continue to use them. It would be nice to know the why's - anybody want to build a wind tunnel?

Actually, I am attempting to build a wind tunnel right now. However, I must say that this is going to take time, effort and some money. Moreover, I do not have all resources, including time, to do vigorous testing. I hope I will be done by May .
Also I am planning to use simple basic equipment to measure lift and drag. However the problem is finding a way to do that. The wind tunnel will be 7x7in. I am open to suggestions as I have no ideas.
Also in comment to the NASA test, I feel that they do have rather good data in order to prove some concept i.e. the top step is usually more beneficial than the bottom. I also believe that the KF airfoil most likely cannot continuously maintain a stable vortex behind its step as doing to is extremely hard, in my opinion and thinking (of course my reasoning could be flawed). but hopefully we will see with this windtunnel.
Does anyone want to volunteer to make autocad plans for me for my test models? (probably will need it by May, when I am hopefully done)
Another note: I am only planning to test the KFm2 and the Clark Y
I hope that you will be able to accomplish this task you are trying to set up.
Thanks for getting involved in this project.

Seeking Parents of Eve SNYDER of PA
My third great-grandmother, Eve SNYDER, was born in PA on 17 Dec 1811 and married Michael HOCKENBARGER in Wayne Co OH on 2 Sep 1830. Eve died near Hudson, Steuben Co IN, on 24 Sep 1886. Many family trees indicate that her parents were Dewalt and Anna Clara (Fetters) SCHNEIDER; however, I am almost certain that this is incorrect. Dewalt and Claras daughter was born 17 May 1808 in Milford Twp, Somerset Co, PA, married Samuel Murray, and died 20 Oct 1885. Since Dewalt was a patriot during the Revolutionary War, there is considerable information available on him and his family, including his daughter Eve. Much of this information resides with the Somerset Historical Society. While almost certain that Dewalt and Clara are not Eves parents, I have been unable to determine who Eve's parents are. If anyone has information, I would greatly appreciate it. Please contact me at [email protected] Thanks.

Kriss Worthington confirmed as District 7 winner
On election night last Tuesday, only one of the Berkeley local races was technically undecided. In District 7, incumbent Kriss Worthington has captured 49.69% of the vote, just short of the required 50%. So it was clear that, barring a total sweep of second-choice votes by rival George Beier, Worthington would be reelected.
That result is now confirmed, although the final, official tally is yet to be certified. If you're interested in how ranked-choice voting works in practice, the … Continue reading »
Will ranked-choice voting change the election?
At Tuesday's election, Berkeley voters will have their first experience of ranked-choice voting (RCV), also known as instant runoff voting. RCV is being used in Berkeley's City Council elections. In RCV (explained rather folksily in the video above), voters can rank their candidate preferences. If no candidate wins a majority (50% plus one), the candidate with the lowest number of first-choice votes is eliminated. Votes cast for that candidate will be redistributed to the voter's next-ranked choice. The … Continue reading »

The Dialyzer is a static analysis tool that identifies software discrepancies using a Hindly Milner style system called Success Typing. Basically, it brings some of the benefits of Haskell or Ocaml style type checking to Erlang. If you are not using it as part of the automated build for your system you should be.
Dialyzer does it's thing going through all of your direct and transitive dependencies and pulling out lots of information about types, function calls etc. It then checks that that 'type universe' is consistent with the calls you are making in your target. However, All this pulling out of type information takes quite a long time so Dialyzer has been given the ability to cache this information in files called PLT files.
While PLT files are wonderful for saving you time and you should use them. You must be careful about how you use them. In fact, most people are using them in ways that will cause them problems in the long run. Its common to have a 'Global' PLT file, either shipped with the Erlang distribution or in the users home directory. Using Global PLT files is a lot like using global state in your code. Its a practice that leads to subtle and hard to debug errors.
Why is that? Well it has a lot to do with the fact that in the post
Rebar world version numbers don't actually mean what they should they
should. Huh? what does that have to do with Dialyzer? Give me a
second and I will explain. A lot of folks out there have the
dependencies in their
rebar.config pointing to a branch or other
ref instead of a tag. This means that every time they do a
rebar get-deps and pull down their deps (maybe after a clean) they
have slightly different code under the same version number. That is,
the version number is specified in the
*.app or the
*.app.src and that
doesn't change but with every new commit the code associated with
that version number changes. That pretty much eliminates the value of
version numbers as useful identifiers. Unfortunately, Dialyzer and
several other OTP tools rely on those version numbers. So lets take
the case where you have a Global PLT file where you keep the cached
information about OTP Applications. Internally, this file is organized
by application and version. However, every single one of projects you
are currently working on you work on (if you are depending on branches
or head instead tags) are working on subtly different implicit
versions for each dependency, all identified by an invalid explicit
version that Dialyzer is using.
You may go a long time without this causing you problems, but at some point Dialyzer is going to think your code is wrong based on what it knows about an App but that App is different from the one you have as a dependency and so the warning is invalid. You wont know that though and you will spend a ton of time trying to figure out what is wrong and eventually give up and ignore the warning in your mind or maybe even stop using Dialyzer.
How do we fix this? We could do this by relying on explicit tags
everywhere and making sure that we don't pollute our version space but
thats hard to do. Its much simpler and safer to solve this problem by
treating the PLT file just like any other compile output. It should be
generated on a per project basis and kept in the 'build' area of the
project. Yes, that means it should be regenerated for each project,
and that takes a little while but doing it this way solves all the
problems described above in a clean and simple way. You probably
already have a
Makefile driving Rebar so lets leverage that
to do the Dialyzer magic in simplest and least intrusive way
possible. Basically, we will set up a couple of tasks to do what we
need. The first task is a simple rule that creates the PLT file, the
second task runs Dialyzer on the Rebar source.
- dialyzer --output_plt $(DEPSOLVER_PLT) --build_plt \
--apps erts kernel stdlib crypto public_key -r deps
dialyzer: $(DEPSOLVER_PLT)
dialyzer --plt $(DEPSOLVER_PLT) -Wrace_conditions --src src
Another thing to note. Dialyzer will often fail on your dependencies. There are too many fools out there that are not using dialyzer on their project. These rules take that fact of life into account, but you will see error messages from the PLT file creation. You can ignore those, its not your responsibility to fix errors in your upstream (though you can and submit them back, its always good to be a contributor to your dependencies).
Thats it. You want to change the
--apps to a list of actual
dependencies for your project rather then the arbitrary list here. A
Dialyzer specific example makefile is
here. In my next post, I will put
up a simple general Makefile that you can use to run a Rebar project.

But it was all Crosby-Ovechkin, all the time, as soon as the clock hit 1:00.
If you didn't kill yourself watching WPXI's pre-game, you saw the opening face-off.
The Caps gave the Pens a few scares early on.
Because shots that hit the glass behind MAF are dangerous.
The Pens spent most of the first 10 minutes of the game in the Caps zone.
Kennedy-Staal-Cooke were dominating.
Out of nowhere, Crosby was flying into the Caps zone.
Erskine forgets who has the puck, lets Bing into the slot.
The Pens D felt like it was gonna break down any second.
But they were holding the fort.
Mark Eaton gets a high stick in the chops.
The Pens were getting in passing lanes in their own zone, getting the job done.
Staal races for a loose puck in the neutral zone.
Fedorov realizes this isn't 1997 anymore and doesn't have the speed to get to the puck and interferes with Staal.
Pens get their first PP of the game.
8 Caps fans whoop Gonchar when he carries the puck.
Pens can't capitalize.
After the PP, the Pens make their first mistake.
It was high-risk, high-reward when Malkin tried to pick off a pass in the Caps' high slot.
It resulted in him being caught back and not being able to pick up Steckel.
Gonchar whoops it over the glass and the Pens have to kill a penalty.
Ovechkin jobs Cooke. Cooke doesn't like it.
Cooke eventually takes a penalty.
If you don't have to kill a 5-on-3, you aren't living.
Unfortunately, the pens couldn't kill it.

The Pens get some chances. Some joke loses his stick.
Washington was running, but loose pucks kept careening to the boards.
- Not having to listen Pierre McGuire is the greatest thing ever.
- Best officated game in the last ten years.
- Malkin should have gotten called for that trip along the boards in the third, though.
- Pens had more odd-man chances in this game than in the entire Flyers series.
- A.O. looks hurt.

Public Discourse publishes a statement against human cloning:
"The central moral objection to cloning-for-biomedical-research is that it involves the deliberate killing of human embryos. Much of the debate over cloning-for-biomedical-research therefore concerns the question of the moral status of the embryo. Is the embryo "one of us," despite its apparent lack of distinctively human features and capacities? Do these youngest of human beings deserve our care and protection, or are there purposes that are sufficiently important to warrant killing them or using them in experiments?
We maintain that, because human embryos are human beings, they must "never be used as a mere means for the benefit of others." Human embryos are members of the human species at the earliest stage of biological development. They are tiny in size and unfamiliar in appearance, but they are unmistakably individual human organisms—they do not become human at some later developmental stage. Occasionally scientists will aver that "science does not offer a hard-and-fast answer to the question of when human life begins." The notion that it is impossible for science to answer the question of when human life begins, or even that the question is meaningless, can be convenient for scientists who want to use embryos as raw materials in their technological projects, but it also represents an abdication of the responsibility of science to provide us not only with technological power over nature but also with answers to questions about nature, including answers that might make us reconsider the moral implications of some of our growing technological power over nature."
A new find of hominid fossils has been found in South Africa. The uniqueness of the find itself is undisputed. The find includes 15 partial skeletons, a big contrast to the usual fragmentary and isolated finds in paleoanthropology. What will take some more time to elucidate is the significance of the finding in the larger picture of hominid evolution. The discoverers have described the fossils as belonging to a new species, Homo naledi, while critics have disputed even the identification of the species, as well as its significance.
The more the phenomena of the universe are studied, the more distinct their connection appears, and the more simple their causes, the more magnificent their design, and the more wonderful the wisdom and power of their Author.
