There was a bold, confident knock on Hollywood executive Geoff Chaser's rare Brazilian Weeping Tree door. The recently extinct wood slightly muted the harshness of initial knuckle contact, but delivered an authoritative resonance on the deeper notes. Or at least, that's what the salesmen had told him when he bought it. "Come on in, Chaz!" Geoff yelled, splitting a thin line of cocaine out from a pile on his desk. "Geoff! Baby! How it do?" Chaz Blazer was decked out in a severe black three-piece suit, yet his dress shirt was completely unbuttoned down to the crotch. It was, inexplicably, still tucked in. "Take a seat, Chaz. I'm afraid I have some bad news. The studio's been going through some tough times, and it breaks my heart to say it, but I'm afraid we might have to let you go..." "Oh, god..." Visions of unemployment ran through Chaz's head; he wouldn't go back to the Tanning Salon. He'd burned that bridge a long time ago. And the warehouse next door, too.
You can pre-order Robert's book, Everything is Going to Kill Everybody: The Terrifyingly Real Ways the World Wants You Dead on Amazon, or find him on Twitter, Facebook and his own site, I Fight Robots where you can read his exhaustive store of Spongebob Squarepants/C'thulhu slash fiction.
"Wow. This really got out of hand. That spray-tan stuff is pretty hardcore.""...unless you love this pitch!" "Ha ha! Yes!" Relief poured over Chaz like kerosene on a hooker. "You fucking nailed me with that one, Geoff! I wouldn't even blame you if you didn't call me the next day." "I totally wouldn't! I'd leave you a business card with a fake phone number that connects up to a venereal disease treatment clinic." "Fantastic." Geoff quickly ran through a series of meditative stretches, then snorted three lines in rapid succession. "I am burnt today, Chaz. Absolutely burnt out. You want a cappuccino?" Geoff asked, his finger above the buzzer to his non-gender specific assistant, Janice. "I will fucking murder a cappuccino right now. I'll kill it and then flip through its wallet until I find the address on its driver's license, and then I'll go to its house and kill its fucking family too," Chaz eyed the powder with equal parts lust and hunger. His nose drooled in anticipation.
"Your kids: Dead. Your friends: Dead. Your dog: Dead. I am become Shiva, motherfucker.""Twisted! I'm right there with you, guy. I have just no respect for human life right now without a cappuccino. Janice? Janice are you there?" "Yes, sir?" "I swear to God, Janice, if I don't get a cappuccino right now, I will turn into a werewolf." "What, sir?" "I will transform into a wolfman, and in my wolfen state I will bite somebody. And they will bite somebody, and they will bite somebody else, and so on and so on until there is an entire army of wolfmen bearing down on the civilized world, Janice. That's what's going to happen unless we get two cappuccinos with extra foam in here, ASAP." "Right away, sir." "All right! Let's get down to it, Chazzykins," Geoff finally gestured toward the thin white lines, and Chaz cheerily bent to it. "I'm sure you've heard by now all about the Spider-Man 4 shake-up? Even though it's pretty much a brand new series, it's still being canceled, recast and rebooted. It is going to be a gritty reboot of a series that is less than a decade old. And that got me thinking..."
"No, no, no. Grittier! He should have guns! He should be raping somebody!""Yeah of coOOOOH GOOD LORD THAT IS MAGNIFICENT BLOW!" "Why, thank you! I made it myself. I've been getting really into this new Artisanal movement--you know, bake your own bread, brew your own beer, cure your own meat--and this shit here is my pride and joy. Shade grown, hand-cut, environmentally-friendly, 100 percent organic cocaine." "You can really tell. There's almost a whimsical tone throughout. It finishes brightly, with a summery tartness - and is that hints of cherry I detect?" "Well, a gentleman never tells, Chaz. But back to business: This Spider-Man movie isn't alone; you know they're doing a gritty reboot of Mad Max?" "Wow. That was a pretty gritty movie already. I feel like my eyelid is bleeding." "Oh, it is. It absolutely is." "Fantastic," Chaz enthusiastically replied, fidgeting in his seat. He quickly took off both shoes and squatted on the floor, rocking on his heels. "And you're absolutely right," Geoff continued, frowning dismally at his enormous pile of coke, "Mad Max was gritty in every sense of the word. It was dark. Dystopian. Morally bankrupt and violent. Hell, there was even sand everywhere. It was literally fucking gritty - there was grit all over the place! And it's still getting a reboot. You understand? We're reaching an impasse here - there can't be much more done."
Seriously, the whole situation: Very gritty. From the atmosphere to Lord Humungus's Rhinestone jockstrap. So gritty."Right right. But you gotta milk that cow until the liquid runs red. Right? What else are you gonna do? Right? Am I saying 'right' too much? I feel like I am. Am I right?" "You're right. Shit. Now it feels weird when I say it. Listen, Chaz - I'm already goddamn bored with this coke. Would you do me a favor? Come over here and choke me a little while I take this next hit." "God you're so fucking jaded and I LOVE YOU FOR IT," Chaz replied, removing his belt and skipping around the desk. "So, what do we do when something's become stale and unprofitable?" Geoff's voice rose to a squeak at the last syllable, strangled off by the seal-skin leather of Chaz's $14,000 belt, ironically adorned with a Pabst Blue Ribbon belt buckle he paid an intern to find at a thrift store. "You don't mean..." Chaz's grip on the belt slackened as the realization dawned on him. "We reboot the entire concept of the reboot!" Geoff rasped, before momentarily passing out and falling to the floor. He awoke almost instantly, sporting the kind of erection only asphyxiation and power-dealing can invoke. He crawled back up to his desk and depressed the intercom button. "Janice, ETA on that cappuccino?" "Five minutes, sir." "Army of wolfmen, Janice. Army of wolfmen."
That blood is on your hands, honey."Where was I? Oh, right. Reboots: What are all reboots?" Geoff continued, his voice regulating. "Gritty," replied Chaz instantly, as if it were a muscle memory. "That's right! We take lighthearted franchises and give them a gritty reboot. What I'm proposing is flipping the script: Give gritty original properties a lighthearted reboot." "Oh tits," Chaz whispered reverently, "I know we just thought of this, but I already want to run it into the fucking ground. I want to bury it." "I want to more than bury it. I want to take it up to the hills and push it off a cliff," Geoff continued, a blank, frenzied expression overtaking him, "I want to push it off a cliff and then jump off after it, following it all the way down to Earth just fucking... just fucking beating the shit out of it as we fall like Gandalf and the Balrog from Lord of the Rings. I want to die beating this into the fucking ground."
FUUUUUUUUUUCK YOOOOOUUUUUU!"I can't even properly picture it," Chaz said, weeping cocaine blood onto the pressed slacks that he had sewn onto him every morning for an optimal fit. "I'm too wired for gritty." "Understandable. Want me to hit you with some examples?" "Absolutely yes. I want you to hit me until I recover repressed memories about my father. I don't want you to ever stop, ever. No safe words. Wow! This cocaine is bringing me to a dark, dark place and I just could not be happier about it!" "I'm thinking Saving Private Ryan, but instead of World War II it's a dance competition." "Holy shit!" "I'm thinking Scarface... as a child. Think Charlie Brown meets Little Rascals meets True Romance." "Fuck your brilliance!" "When he says 'say hello to my little friend'... it's actually a little friend of his; it's like a fucking fairy or something." "MOTHERFUCK YOUR GENIUS MIND." "I'm thinking Blade Runner, only this time Deckard is an aging figure skater trying to get his groove back after a bad divorce."
Like this, but replace the gun with a bouquet and the cigarette with a kazoo!"Holy shit you just ruined my language center! I'm not even hearing words anymore! I agree with the all of the sounds you are making, even though they are not forming coherent concepts in my brain!" Chaz began rabbit-punching his own legs. "We can reboot everything! Everything! I'm thinking a digital remaster of The Terminator where all the gunfight scenes are digitally replaced by high-fives." "I love you; I want to fuck you; I just might kill you." "I'm fucking rebooting the gritty reboot of Spider-Man 4!" "That's not even out yet!" "I know, and I don't care! I want a light-hearted reboot of the gritty reboot out before the fucking gritty one is out!" "You've gone absolutely mad and you will change the course of human history because of it; you are fucking Rasputin!" "We've got to move on this, Chaz! Quick, get down to production and greenlight every expense you can possibly think of! I need this to happen now!" Geoff was surprised to learn that somewhere along the way he had torn his pure white blazer into shreds and tied one around his head. He also did not recall making the decision to turn over his desk and straddle the remains, but in retrospect it did seem rather appropriate.
"I don't recall how this happened, but I'm pretty stoked that it did!""I'm going to run down there, and then when I get there I'm going to keep running in circles while I talk because I feel like if I stop moving now I'm going to die!" "Do me a favor on your way out, Chaz?" "Anything! EVERYTHING!" "Bite Janice on the arm; keep her doubting." After the door slammed--the unique resonance of the wood reverberating like the shockwaves of a distant explosion--Geoff sauntered over and flipped the deadbolt. He made his way back to the floor-to-ceiling windows that looked out upon the Los Angeles skyline. He took a deep breath, and held it. Slowly, he undid his belt, lowered his slacks and underwear to the floor, and pressed his bare balls gently against the cold, slick glass. After a moment he began, almost imperceptibly, to gyrate his hips. The balls issued a soft, plaintive squeak as they ran across the surface, like windshield wipers in a light drizzle. "All for you, Hollywood," he whispered affectionately. "That's all for you."

Environmental Issues in the Texas Portion of the U.S.-Mexico Border Area
In the border region, as in the rest of Texas, we work to improve the environment in a number of ways, including monitoring air and water quality and enforcing regulations and permits. Much of this is done through our regional offices in El Paso, Laredo, and Harlingen.
A summary of the special border activities of all our divisions is contained in the TCEQ Border Initiative.
Interacting with all the involved divisions, we have a dedicated Border Affairs team that supports TCEQ's programs in the border region by working with multiple parties in Texas and Mexico. This team collaborates with local communities, environmental groups, industry, trade associations, and other agencies, and acts as Texas' point group in the U.S.-Mexico Border 2020 Environmental Program, a partnership between federal, state, and local governments in the region.
Following are links to pages related to the binational Border 2020 program, other activities involving the TCEQ's Border Affairs team, additional activities of the TCEQ in the border region, and external sources of information on this region.

John Etheridge and legendary classical guitarist John Williams goes back some 10 years to the formation of the "Magic Box" group which also featured Paul Clarvis, Chris Laurence and multi-instrumentalist Richard Harvey. This group toured for 3 years and made a cd for Sony records, a highlight was an appearance at the Proms. The next association was a short-lived trio WEB - Williams, Etheridge, Bebey. Bebey is the African Percussionist, pianist and singer son of renowned Cameroonian composer Francis Bebey.
Finally Etheridge and Williams decided to go out as a duo-making their concert debut at the National Theatre in Dublin,where they were recorded for Sony Records cd "Live in Dublin".
Since then they have made 2 tours of USA-appearing at Carnegie Hall Recital Room, Chicago Symphony Hall, Seattle's Bene Royal Hall and other top venues.
2008 saw them in Australia and New Zealand,appearing at Sydney Opera House and Hamer Hall Melbourne, Auckland Town Hall and the other big centres.
In Europe they have played Amsterdam,s legendary Concertgebouw,the Cologne Philharmonic, the Montpelier Festival and many wonderful venues in Europe and England .
The two John's play an eclectic mix that illuminates their highly different skills -complementing each other and bringing to the table a vast wealth of musical experience across the genres.
"The two Johns delivered a dazzling display that travelled from Bach,through Vivaldi and Django Reinhardt". New Zealand Herald
A review of John Williams / John Etheridge at Pizza Express **** (4 stars) August 09
Clive Davis
Fusing world music, jazz and folk with a soupcon of Bach, this was an enchanting conversation between two masters. Even when he is not playing John Etheridge makes delightful company. Whether mimicking a Radio 3 presenter or musing over the legacy of the late Les Paul, the guitarist turns his Soho residencies into the most intimate of gatherings.
Not surprisingly, the room was jammed full for his latest encounter with the classical virtuoso John Williams. For some reason Places Between, the live album released by Sony Classical a few years ago, did not receive the attention it deserved. Fusing world music, jazz and folk with a soupcon of Bach, it was an enchanting conversation between two masters from two very different traditions.
Some of the material cropped up in their opening night — part of a seven-night run by Etheridge that also featured his limpid Django-Grappelli band, Sweet Chorus. The centrepiece of the first set, though, was Ludwig's Horse, an extended new work by Paul Hart which took polite liberties with a Beethoven theme. If the demure contours favoured Williams's classical rigour, Etheridge made the most of the openings that came his way.
There was more of a rhythmic edge to Malinke Guitars, the phrasing evoking the spartan qualities of the kora. Throughout the evening Williams supplied delicate asides while Etheridge gently probed for improvisational possibilities. He opened up the throttle at the beginning of the second set as he switched to solid-body guitar for a solo sequence that included his exceptionally spacious treatment of Mingus's Goodbye, Pork Pie Hat.
Electronic effects broadened his palette, and by the time he had moved on to the funky riffs of Green Onions he had conjured up his own miniature rhythm section. After Williams delivered his own unaccompanied performance on a collection of tunes, which included a homage to the Cameroonian musician Francis Bebey, the two men signed off with Extra Time, their ingenious reworking of a prelude from Well-Tempered Clavier.

Honolulu got a "Taste" of the Ramen Burger on Wednesday straight from the man who created it.
Click here to watch Lara Yamada's story.
Keizo Shimamoto from Brooklyn, New York was at the Taste Table in Kaka'ako with the help of his brother Jeff to give foodies in Honolulu a chance to eat the original Ramen Burger.
Jeff says it started at a flood flea market in Brooklyn. Keizo posted his blog on a Wednesday.
"On Thursday, Good Morning America called. On Friday, he was on Good Morning America," said Jeff Shimamoto. "On Saturday, he had 400 people in line for 150 burgers. It was just insane. Since then, it's never stopped."
People were served starting at 11 a.m. and at one point the line went all the way from Auahi Street to Ala Moana Boulevard.
Hawaii Chef Mark "Gooch" Noguchi made his own version for a one-day pop-up at Taste with their 700 burgers going fast. Very fast.
"Here in Hawaii, we love noodles. We love hamburger. So you would think it's a no-brainer,but like you said, Hawaii is a tough crowd and we like what we like and we're proud of that, so you never know," said Noguchi.
Ruby Kay with a "three-fer." As did Jeanne Hill, who waited three hours to be one of the first in line to make sure she sampled her own.
"Oh my good. It's good. It's good. It's worth the wait," said Hill.
But, for those at the end of the line, the taste of a new creation may this time be a dream on hold. This turnout is likely a sign the Ramen Burger is up for an encore.
The burgers cost $10 each. The Shimamoto brothers say they still sell some 300 of them in New York every Saturday. They plan to open a shop in March.

Populus balsamifera
Populus balsamifera, commonly called balsam poplar,[1] bam,[2] bamtree,[1] eastern balsam poplar,[1] hackmatack,[1] tacamahac poplar,[1] tacamahaca,[1] is a tree species in the balsam poplar species group in the poplar genus, Populus. The genus name Populus is from the Latin for poplar, and the specific epithet balsamifera from Latin for "balsam-bearing".[3] Other common names for the species include heartleaf balsam poplar, and Ontario balsam poplar.[citation needed] The black cottonwood, Populus trichocarpa, is sometimes considered a supspecies of P. balsamifera[4] and may lend its common name to this species, although the black poplars and cottonwoods of Populus sect. Aigeiros are not closely related.
Populus balsamifera is the northernmost American hardwood, growing transcontinentally on boreal and montane upland and flood plain sites, and attaining its best development on flood plains. It is a hardy, fast-growing tree which is generally short lived, but some trees as old as 200 years have been found.[5]
The Balm of Gilead (Populus × jackii), also known as P. × gileadensis, is the hybrid between P. balsamifera and the eastern cottonwood (P. deltoides), occurring occasionally where the two parental species' ranges overlap. This hybrid is also sometimes planted as a shade tree, and sometimes escapes from cultivation.[6] The name Populus candicans has been variously used for either P. balsamifera or P. × jackii; it is currently considered a synonym of P. balsamifera.
Balm of Gilead is a balm (healing compound) made from the resinous gum of this species[7][unreliable source?] or related species such as Populus × jackii.[6] However, despite the name, this tree is not the source of the terpentine Canada balsam, derived instead from the balsam fir (Abies balsamea).
The light, soft wood of Populus balsamifera is used for pulp and construction.[5]
Many kinds of animals use the twigs of Populus balsamifera for food. The leaves of the tree serve as food for caterpillars of various Lepidoptera. See List of Lepidoptera that feed on poplars.

Call to Order
Chairman Norris Kantor called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. at the Upper-Classman II and informed the group that the minutes could not be approved or decisions made until the group had a quorum. He welcomed Dr. Jim Voelker's State and Local Government class to the meeting and explained how the Board of Governors works.
President's Report – Dr. Albert Walker
- Dr. Walker reported that BSC participated with Concord University and the Princeton and Bluefield Rotary Clubs to donate dictionaries to third graders at Mercer School in Princeton earlier this week. Every third grader at the school received a dictionary encyclopedia. This project will provide every third grader in Mercer County with a dictionary.
- The deadline for applications for the Director of Development has passed and a committee will be selected to review applications and conduct interviews of candidates for the position. Members of the BSC Foundation Board will serve on the selection committee.
- Dr. Walker reported to the group that he has been appointed to the Mercer County Board of Advisors for BB&T Bank and has been informed that BSC will be receiving grant funding from the BB&T Foundation from a proposal written by Mr. Gerald James. At this time the amount of the grant is unknown.
- Dr. Walker called the group's attention to the revised organizational chart and explained that as departmental changes are made the chart will continue to change. The major change at this time is in the Development office.
Student Affairs and Enrollment Management
In the absence of Mr. Cardwell, Dr. Walker gave a brief report on enrollment:
- Student enrollment is up 5% with a larger than usual traditional student enrollment. The availability of student housing has helped to make this increase possible. The border county initiative has been very successful and enrollment for the spring is expected to be up significantly. The enrollment goal for the spring is 2000 students. The present headcount is 1,845 with 1,775 students paid. Last year the total headcount was 1,720.
- Offering 200 distance learning courses. Persons with special needs can benefit from these courses.
- BSC Athletic Director has announced that a Soccer Club will be started in the spring. Several students have expressed interest. This organization will be made up of volunteers with uniforms being donated. If a BSC team is organized there will be both male and female teams.
Financial and Administrative Affairs – Ms. Shelia Johnson
- Ms. Johnson called the group's attention to a list of services which are currently outsourced for the institution and the reasons for such outsourcing.
- Campus Facilities Projects –
• One of the Basic Science building elevators is completed and in use while repairs for the second elevator are in progress. Both should be in full operation by November.
• Roofing projects – two roofing projects are in progress – the PE building and the Basic Science building. Ms. Johnson discussed various problems encountered.
• ADA parking lot project – from the Library lot to the far side of Hatter Hall. Access to Conley and Hatter Hall will be greatly improved. There will be 69 additional parking places as a result of this project.
• Entrance, signage, and tunnel corrections – in a 2002 survey one of the lead problems identified was the need to improve the appearance of the campus. Ms. Johnson reviewed the progress of these projects.
Dr. Aikens inquired concerning the outsourcing list and asked if there was a list available for NRCTC and BSC outsourcing information.
Academic Affairs – Dr. Don Smith
- Dr. Smith called the attention of the group to the reports by Dr. Sudhakar Jamkhandi concerning the International Initiatives and the references to the ESL (English as a Second Language). He discussed the benefit of offering these courses at BSC to international students who now must attend the ESL classes through Virginia Tech in order to enroll at BSC. Discussion followed.
Institutional Research and Effectiveness – Dr. Tracey Anderson
- Peer review and selection process – Dr. Anderson discussed the peer list provided by HEPC which was prepared by MGT of America, Inc. Each institution will select 15 peer institutions. Dr. Anderson explained that three institutions listed appeared both on the old peer list and the list compiled by MGT and will automatically be placed on the peer list, leaving 12 for the institution to select. The recommendations are to be submitted to HEPC by October 24 and Dr. Anderson asked the Board for administrative authority to make the selections based on the criteria most beneficial for the institution. Discussion followed.
Virtual College and Technology – Dr. Thomas Blevins
- Distance Learning Courses and Related Activities – Dr. Blevins discussed the various modalities used for distance learning courses. He discussed the benefits to students and how BSC compares with other institutions in regard to distance learning. He informed the group that the interactive video is live and connects all campuses. Due to the technology available to students there are 63 students taking complete degree programs online. Dr. Mirsky discussed the concern of some instructors that some classes are being taught only online, adding that students would like to have the opportunity for those courses in the classroom also. Dr. Blevins will research and work with Academic Affairs to make all courses taught by distance learning also available in the classroom.
- Dr. Blevins informed the group that the BSC Internet Radio Station has been very successful. The station has a link on the BSC website.
- Dr. Blevins discussed the progress of the wireless project and informed the group that all academic buildings now have wireless access.
- Marshall University's Nursing Masters program runs from the interactive video in the electronic classroom.
Human Resources – Mr. David Lord
- Mr. Lord discussed the comments received concerning the by-laws distributed at the last meeting. Since a quorum was not obtained, there will be another month for comments to be received.
- Policy on Presidential Appointment and Evaluation – Mr. Lord reviewed comments and informed the group that this policy will be included as an action item at November's BOG meeting.
- Two additional policies have been presented to the College Council and will be presented to the BOG in November for approval for a 30 day comment period.
Upper-Classman Presentation – Mr. Dennis Johnson
Mr. Johnson reviewed some marketing efforts and played a television advertisement that ran recently. He invited all in attendance to walk through the facility to view the progress made in the past year. Mr. Johnson discussed the benefit of marketing the College to students in a wider geographic area with the availability of student housing. Discussion followed.

Speaking at the conclusion of what has been a superb twelve months for his Rhinos side Hetherington expects next year to be an even better one for the entire sport. He said: "I think 2013 will be a landmark year for Rugby League and as we head into the New Year I believe there are six big things for Rugby League fans to be cheerful about:
- The best opening round of Super League fixtures with hard to predict results.
- Leeds Rhinos v Melbourne Storm in the World Club Challenge, which will be a classic best v best contest with three of the World's best players in Cooper Cronk, Billy Slater and Cameron Smith all representing NRL Champions Melbourne Storm and arguably the World's most successful coach in any sport, Craig Bellamy, looking to wrestle the World Club Challenge Trophy away from Leeds Rhinos.
- The Etihad Stadium will host a record 70,000 plus fans for the annual Magic Weekend fixtures.
- The new Academy U19s competition will easily be the best to date and full of unique talents ready to burst onto Super League.
- The best England team for over 20 years assembled by coach Steve McNamara and captained by Super League's most successful captain Kevin Sinfield.
- The biggest and best Rugby League World Cup tournament to date."
- Following the new £1 million pitch reconstruction the team will start the season playing on a bowling green, rather than a bog, with a hard and fast surface that will suit our style.
- In newcomers Mitch Achurch, Joel Moon and Joe Vickery we have a trio of terrific talents who add extra strike and quality to our team.
- In Brian McDermott we have a coach who ranks alongside any other in the World.
- The most exciting and talented squad in the club's history who are all hungry for more success."

DirectionsShow MapHide Map
We are just over an hour from Stone Town and you can take the local dala dala, shared minibus, or taxi.
To find Mustapha's Place, when you turn left at the Paje roundabout, continue past Paje and towards Bwejuu to the north. After a few minutes you will see a Mustapha's Place sign on the right hand side of the road. Shortly after this is a red container. Loop around the back of the container and take the first main sandy road on your left. After a few minutes you will see a big orange house in front of you. Mustapha's is just in to the right. Karibu!
Located Near
Back in 1997 local Rastafarian Mustapha and his close friends envisioned a remote, idyllic guest-house with stunning gardens in Bwejuu, next to the most beautiful beach on the island.
It was meant not as a money-making exercise but a community, a place where like-minded locals and travelers could meet and mix, talk and learn from one another.
In Mustapha's place will always be the same spirit, that of ensuring a relaxing haven for those travellers who want to know the real Zanzibar.

By Dave Wagner: CNJ sports writer
Eastern New Mexico University's men have had their way with East Central in recent years.
The shorthanded Greyhounds (3-8) hoped to continue that trend in today's 7:30 p.m. clash at Greyhound Arena.
ENM has beaten the Tigers seven times in a row dating to a January 2001. East Central is off to a 6-3 start, though, while the Greyhounds are scheduled to dress only seven players for the third consecutive game.
"They're big," ENMU men's coach Shawn Scanlan said. "They were real young a year ago. They run their stuff well. They're not flashy, and they don't change a whole lot."
Women's teams meet in the opener of a league doubleheader.
The Hounds are coming off a 74-60 loss Saturday at Lubbock Christian. They got off to an 11-2 start against the Chaparrals and still led 31-30 at halftime despite 10 turnovers and 11 missed free throws in the opening 20 minutes.
"We put a lot of emphasis on getting off to a good start, and we did," Scanlan said. "But after that, it didn't translate into very good basketball."
Scanlan said junior forward Travis Cooper continues to sit out a team suspension, noting that he "still has some issues to clear up."
Scanlan said he's hoping to pick up a couple of walk-ons when the second semester starts later this month.
"Those seven (active players) have to accept the challenge," he said. "We haven't put the focus and effort into the same venture yet."
ENMU's women (2-7) are playing for the first time since a Dec. 17 win at New Mexico Highlands. Zias coach Linden Weese said his 17-player roster has been pared to 13 with four girls not returning to the squad, including three of the team's five non-freshmen.
The Zias returned to practice on Sunday. Weese said he isn't sure how the layoff will affect his team.
"We'll find out," he said. "People handled it differently, but I think our kids needed a break."
Weese said he thinks the Zias are beginning to come around.
"We're starting to see longer stretches of consistency," he said. "I think they're really starting to grow up.
"It's just taking us a while to piece it all together. The longer we go, the better we feel about it."
East Central brings a 7-2 mark into tonight's game. The Lady Tigers have four players averaging in double figures, led by senior Lacey Goldwire at 20.2 ppg.

Comments: LOVE the shoe, but HATE the laces. I usually wear a minimal shoe, and I've found these light and comfortable (plenty of room in the toe box). They also have a little support in the arch, which I like, though initially it felt strange since I'd transitioned to minimals. Now I appreciate it. They wear well, and feel great. The laces are horrible though. I've knotted, double knotted, and triple knotted and still had to stop and re-tie. It's surprising since the last 3-4 pairs of NB shoes have had great knobby laces which tied quickly and stay tied. I don't know what they were thinking with these laces, but I suggest you replace them quickly.
From: Cyndi, Boylston, MA, USA
Comments: When I got this shoe I loved it because it's so lightweight and comfortable. However, after about 250 miles, the mesh on the sides of the shoe started falling apart. I've never experienced such a fast breakdown with a running shoe - normally I only see rips after 500-600 miles. I was disappointed since New Balance usually puts out a quality product.
From: Liz, Philadelphia, PA, USA

The Department's Configuration Management of Non-Financial Systems
The Department of Energy (Department) utilizes many types of information technology (IT) systems to support its various missions related to environmental cleanup, national security, energy and scientific research. Protecting these systems has become increasingly challenging as the frequency and sophistication of cyber attacks continues to rise. A key component of helping to ensure an adequate information security posture is the implementation of an effective configuration management program. Configuration management helps to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of IT resources through controls over the processes for initializing, changing and monitoring information systems. Prior Office of Inspector General (OIG) reports identified systemic issues with the Department's cyber security and configuration management programs. In light of the need to ensure effective security practices over the Department's information systems and the challenges noted in prior OIG reports, we initiated this audit to determine whether the Department implemented an effective configuration management process over non-financial systems.

The Seattle Yacht Club Juniors enjoy an active calendar of social and sailing events, both on and off the water.
Long running traditions such as the Junior decorated boat for Opening Day are opportunities for Junior Members to work together on a project in a fun atmosphere representing the Seattle Yacht Club. New events, such as dinner before the monthly meetings, afternoons and movie nights at Elliot Bay Outstation bring folks together for the casual fun of a shared meal. The group has a great time planning and creating memorable moments for Juniors throughout the year.
Across the Club, Juniors are important to the success of such activities as the Special People's Cruise, Children's Christmas Party, Children's Santa Brunch, Opening Day and the Children's Easter Brunch. Involvement in these events not only encourages interaction with the wider club, but the Juniors can also earn community service credit for their hours of volunteering. They help plan and facilitate these happenings which generations at the club and in our local community have enjoyed throughout the years.
Over the course the year, the Junior Officer team, pick from a variety of activities including: sporting-related events, local fields trips, community involvement and educational undertakings. The goal is to have one gathering per month available to the Juniors so that they can interact in a more intimate setting with other members their own age. The monthly meetings are the first Thursday of every month (except July and August which fall on a designated Tuesday) with dinner in the Junior Room starting at 6:00 and the Meeting following at 7:00. The officers go over upcoming activities and get feedback from the larger group on what kinds of things that the members are interested in persuing.
On the water, the Junior Race Team and Sumer Sailing School offer our younger members one of the truly outstanding youth sailing programs in the country. More information can be found on the Junior Race Team Page.
The Juniors always welcome new members. Junior-class membership starts at age 10 and runs up to age 21, when members reach Active Intermediate status. If you'd like to learn more about SYC's Junior program, please contact the SYC Membership Director.

Have We Hit Rock Bottom?
1 Comment
When I turned the game on yesterday and we were losing 2-0 with our pitcher throwing a no-hitter, I pretty much decided that we were at the pinnacle of rock bottom.
It's probably a good thing that I am not a manager. Because, right now it would be a toss-up between actually trying to come up with a cohesive line-up that *should* work and putting everyone's name into a hat and pulling out names in a random order. Because I now officially think that it can't get any worse.

Celebrating René Colato Laínez's 10th book release "Señor Pancho Has a Rancho"!
René Colato Laínez is the Salvadoran American award-winning author of many multicultural children's books and has been a featured guest blogger here on the PaperTigers blog. Earlier this month René's 10th book, Señor Pancho Has a Rancho, was released! As René says in his blog post introducing the book:
When I came to the United States, I discovered that not only people had problems learning a second language. Many farm animals had the same challenge too! El pollito said pío pío and the chick said peep peep. I am sure that you know that Old MacDonald had a farm. Now, he has a new neighbor, el señor Pancho, and in his rancho he has many animales."
Señor Pancho Has a Rancho
By René Colato Laínez, illustrated by Elwood Smith (Holiday House, Inc.)
The barnyard animals on Old MacDonald's and Señor Pancho's farms have a hard time communicating. MacDonald's rooster says cock-a-doodle-doo! While Señor Pancho's gallo says quiquirquí. The English-speaking chick says peep, peep, but el pollito says pio, pio. Then the cow says moo—and la vaca says mu! Maybe they're not so different after all! So all the animals come together for a barnyard fiesta, because dancing is a universal language.
This is an excellent choice for read-alouds, but it also includes a glossary and pronunciation guide, making it useful in one-on-one contexts for young readers looking to develop Spanish vocabulary. -School Library Journal
To celebrate the book release René has been deemed Luna Press and Bookstore's author of the month in September and will be appearing in the store on September 14th to read from and sign his books. Lots of fun activities are planned and you can visit Luna's Facebook page or René's blog for more details. The store is located at 3790 Mission Street in San Francisco.

Loc: Hawaii, USA
A story appeared in the local paper (Honolulu Advertiser) using the term "strangulate" to describe what the accused had done to the victim (i.e., he "strangulated" her). I believe strangulated has a medical connotation and cannot be used interchangeably with strangled. On the other hand, "she died of strangulation" sounds all right to me (clearly a medical condition). and I can't think of a different noun equivalent of strangle. So, do we have a case where the two words, strangle and strangulate, have different connotations as verbs, but share a single noun form meaning?

For a medical usage of "strangulate" where "strangle"
would not fit, a hernia of the bowel through the
inguinal canal may have arterial input continue
after lower pressure venous flow becomes impossible.
The extruded portionfinally develops enough pressure
than arterial input ceases, and lack of oxygen causes necrosis of the contents of the hernia. Such an
inteference with circulation is called "strangulation".
Edit: I edited the damned thing, but the corrections did
not appear. Sorry about screen going wide.
"Strangury" is the agony caused by a kidney stone too

Actually, i found labor to be well named, it was hard work, but not especailly painful-- (well, my daughter was painful, but that was because of medical problems (the placenta was slow to detach, -- the standard medical approach is to externaly 'kneed' the uterus.. and if needed, gently "pummel"-- as i hemoraged, the gentle part of the pummeling got forgotten..

A near-barefoot experience with a socklike fit, the Saucony Hattori offers minimal cushioning and a firm ride.
The Saucony Hattori embodies "natural" running. The zero differential heel-to-toe platform encourages mid to forefoot striking; a thin, EVA+ sole provides minimal protection for pavement running and the simple upper hugs the foot like a sock. This is "barefoot" running for the modern, manufactured world.
Model Number:
Weight: 4.4 oz (size 9)
Stack Height: Heel (15mm), Forefoot (15mm)
Available Widths: D=Medium
How it Fits (based on width D)
The Hattori is a minimum feature, minimum neutral shoe designed for daily training.
Comments: The shoe felt great. I've been used to toed shoes (skeletoes), so this was a nice change to a comfortable and cushioned
shoe. They are very lightweight. I got size 10s (which are usually too large for me), but these were too tight. I can't wear socks with them,
so the medial side of the forefoot not has nasty blisters. My suggestion is get about 0.5 or 1 size larger than your normal shoes. Going to try some of the other minimalist shoes, but these definitely felt really good and may consider getting another pair after trying out some of the other shoes.
From: Ray, Burke, VA, USA
Comments: A great minimalist running shoe. I purchased this shoe to try to transition into more of a midfoot strike when wearing traditional shoe. However,when i did a 400m repeats at interval pace they hold up quite well, until on the right side of the toe box area started tearing a decent sized hole.I wasn't gonna expect that until at least a months worth of use!
From: Jon, Somerdale, NJ, USA
Comments: My initial qualm was that these shoes were too padded--but that didn't affect my form in any significant way. In fact, once I hit ~200 miles in them, they felt like, well, butter.I'm a minimalist/barefoot guy (Altra's Instinct is my beefiest shoe, huraches and Inov8's Bare-X 200 are my other bread-and-butter).
This is, without a doubt, the best zero drop shoe for the money. I run a lot--80+ miles a week. My Hattoris, which are ~$50 (less with a team discount) here right now have over 450+ miles on them. They are ludicrously more durable than I expected them to be. Sure, the bottom has worn down, but the upper is--amazingly--still in great shape. No tears or anything. I expected them to last about half this long--they are engineered far better than they look. Do size up by half--I wear a 10 in most shoes, 10.5 in these. Don't be deceived by their appearance--they last a good, long time!
From: Ryan, Bellefontaine, OH, USA
Comments: I absolutely love these shoes. The no laces is great. They feel a bit mushy at first but after some miles they really seem to compress a bit and form to my feet. I always use socks with mine. I came from wearing VFFs. I ran two marathons in mine plus a couple 5ks and they are still holding up. Great for the gym too, easy on and off. They are road shoes of course, I found that Merrell trail gloves are a perfect match if you want to run some trails. I wear an 11 in the Hattoris and the 10.5 in trail glove is perfect. Thanks to running warehouse, great service and pricing!
From: Gabe, Indianapolis,IN,USA
Comments: These shoes are great for running but I have two complaints. First, they smell like rhino dung after wearing them without socks for a while and they now make my feet smell bad, not the other way. Also, I have the white and blue version and they get dirty very fast so get a different color.
From: Matt, Wilmington, NC, USA
Comments: Best shoe I've ever worn! First time I put them on it felt like i was stepping into a pillow. They felt just as good on the run. A super light-weight, responsive shoe. Definitely could tell that the shoes made me land with more of a midfoot strike.
From: Eli, Illinois
Comments: Awful product. I have never had a shoe rub so much in so many different places. Forget about wearing it barefoot like they advertise. Also, the construction feels cheap. The strap on the back right shoe ripped already after a month use. Not too happy with this purchase.
From: Konstantin, New York, NY, USA
Comments: Dear minimalist shoe manufacturers: Yes, much of the technology in running shoe-boots may be excessive and counterproductive, but not laces! There is a reason shoes have laces, and it's because feet are shaped differently! This was never an issue in standard shoes, but in minimal shoes with just the velcro strap, the correct length is always too tight over the top of my foot and eventually causes problems. This is too bad because I think I would really like the shoe if it had laces.
From: Rob, NJ, USA
Comments: I have had these for 3 months now and really love them. Very light and minimal, good barefoot feel and they protect the feet well. You must break in your feet with these and build you the muscle in your feet. I do my primal sprints, light running and walk in these. They will change the way you walk and run away from heal striking. They run about a half size small if you wear socks, which I don't, so they fit well to size barefoot and are very comfortable that way. They are good in wet conditions including beach runs and in the rain. I was between these and VFFs and couldn't get over the look of the VFFs. I am super happy with these.
From: Joe, Newtown, PA, USA
Comments: I am definitely a fan of these shoes. I do most of my running in Kinvaras, but these are a good change of pace for my easy runs. The cushioning is not bad for a zero drop minimalist shoe. They're tougher on my feet than the Kinvaras, but that's expected. I've been wearing these with socks, so I can't comment on sockless comfort. The only issue I've had is a little plantar fasciitis pain towards the end of my 5 milers - I think it might be more of a "me" issue, than the shoes though. I think these are a great option if you want to go minimalist, but don't want to be running around in VFFs.
From: Nick, Tampa, FL, USA
Comments: The Hattori seems to be a good compromise between the Kinvara and the Five Fingers. Most of my running is on pavement and I would find the balls of my feet getting sore after anything over 5 miles wearing the Vibrams. The little bit of extra cushion of the Hattori has eliminated that. Ordered the same size as my Kinvaras and it felt a little snug at first, but over the course of a couple of runs the felt-like material of the strap and heel has definitely stretched a bit. After 20 miles the soles have shown only minimal signs of wear, no more so than any other shoe I've had, so I suspect they will last awhile.
From: Patrick, CA, USA
Comments: Awesome shoe. Feels best on road but can be even used on the trail or track. Order spike/flats size if you intend to use socks (avoid blisters maybe? havent really used it sockless) or half a size smaller if you intend to run without socks. Truly minimalist and will keep you landing on your forefoot/midfoot with no effort!
From: Jose, San Diego, CA, USA
Comments: I started minimalist running in the Vibram Five Fingers, and then moved on to the Saucony Type A4 and more recently the Merrill Trail Glove, but these are my new favorites. Extremely light weight and minimalist in every respect. Very innovative use of materials and I love the lack of laces. Unbelievably light weight. Not for heel-strike runners, but perfect for the minimalist forefoot runner. Sizing seems consistent with Saucony's line (I wear 10.5 in the Type A4 and in the Hattori). Insole feels a bit warm, opposed to what I'm use to in the Five Fingers and Type A4 which seem to allow more airflow to the sole of the foot. Probably not suited for trail running like my Vibram or Merrills, but feels good on pavement and packed gravel. First 5-mile run resulted in a little rubbing and a blister forming, but that's expected to some degree. Toe box seems roomy but not sloppy for my foot. For the Running Warehouse price and their free shipping/return, they are definitely worth checking out.
From: Devon, Minneapolis, MN, USA
Comments: Feels great! What I like about them most is the price. Most other minimal/barefoot like type shoes are in the $100 plus range (why!). Also, the weight is a plus. Why do the merrill glove shoes and Vibrams weight 2 ounces more? Why aren't Vibrams less than 4 ounces since they have even less sole than these shoes? Despite minimal cushioning, my thighs and hips feel better after a run than they do using my other shoes. Without conscious effort, I find it very difficult to run on my mid-foot in other shoes and I truly feel these are forcing me to run more on my mid-foot. However, I have only run 8 miles in them at one time (my weekly miles are 60-70) as my lower calves are still getting used to them. I look forward to being able to run more in them as my lower calves get adjusted. I alternate between these, Saucony Kinvaras (main shoe), nike free 3.0 v2 and nike lunar racer 2 (I don't really like the nike lunar racers that much- too stiff, but they are not horrible). Flexibility is much like nike free 3.0 v2. Caution, if you have a narrow foot like I do, get a 1/2 size smaller than shoe fitter tells you (your normal saucony size) . They may feel a little tight, but the larger size will fall off no matter how tight the velcro is. I bought these at an expo and a 12.5 fell off my foot (shoe fitter states I should get a 12.5 based on my other shoes). My wife has a normal width foot and she bought a 1/2 size up.
From: Gino, Dayton, OH, USA
Comments: Just got these and wore for a day to see how I feel. Nice shoes for running or walking. They feel solid, fit like a glove and are so so light. Short of rock climbing, this shoe could probably do everything. It will replace my hiking, running and gym shoes for sure. They definitely run a half size too small: I am normally size 11.5 and these fit me well in size 12. No idea on longevity obviously. The shoe hugs the foot even with straps undone but the front velcro strap gives it a solid feel for the fit. The back strap will be useless for most people I suspect but it does not really add weight. Unlike Merell glove shoes, these do not feel like my foot is being pinched in the middle - I can wear these all day. The shoes feel closer to Minimus from NB: Hattori shoes are harder to put on but noticeably lighter and do not restrict blood flow in my feet as much.
From: Michael, SLC, UT, USA
Comments: How can Saucony not put any type of extra rubber protection on the lateral part of the outsole, but have it on the heel and inside part? If it is truely a Barefoot type shoe that promotes midfoot or forefoot landing, isn't that where it is needed the most? I can't see getting very many miles out of theses shoes before the sole breaks down. I won't be buying these.
From: John, NY, USA
Comments: The shoe was a little too beefy. I don't typically like something this cushioned. I really just want something flatter.
From: Matthew, Missouri City, TX, USA

Vt. revenues up in most categories in JanuaryFebruary 16,2013
MONTPELIER New figures show that Vermont state revenues were up in most categories last month, coming in slightly ahead of projections.
In the results released Thursday, Administration Secretary Jeb Spaulding said January was a good month for the state treasury.
General Fund revenues in January were $2.3 million, or 1.6 percent, above forecasts. Seven months into the current fiscal year that ends June 30, general fund revenues total $750 million, three-tenths of one percent above the target figure.
The non-dedicated transportation fund receipts in January exceeded forecasts by about three-quarters of one percent. Year-to-date the fund is about one-tenth of one percent above target.
But the non-property tax education fund receipts for January were about one-tenth of one percent below expectations. For the year, the fund is just below even.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON The House on Thursday cleared bills to keep the government running through April and... Full StorySALISBURY, N.C.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.
