DURHAM -- The LOSSA football league has navigated its way through the regular season and playoffs, with only championship games to be decided.
Tier One Senior
Semifinal playoffs
Donald A. Wilson 32, Pickering 6
Led by the tandem of CJ Stephens and Andrew Smith, the Gators have reached the Tier I championship for a seventh consecutive season, defeating Pickering 32-6. For the third straight year and fourth time in five years, their opponent will be Holy Trinity. Wilson holds a two-to-one advantage in the three previous championship meetings.

Pickering: Tyree Burke TD
Holy Trinity 28, Paul Dwyer 27
During week two, the Titans surrendered a 16-point lead in the final three minutes to fall to the Saints 35-30. Playing the Saints for the third time this season, the Titans turned the tables scoring 20 unanswered points in the final three quarters to prevail by one point and advance to the Tier I finals this Saturday at 3 p.m.

Sinclair 7, Ajax 3
In a defensive struggle, the Celtics, on a failed third and touchdown attempt, received a reprieve when a Ram defender was called for pass interference. With the ball placed on the one-yard line, Sanjay Francis would carry the ball over the goal line as the Celtics overcame a 3-0 deficit. The win advanced the Celtics to the championship final.
Sinclair: Sanjay Francis TD; Dylan Lee C
Ajax: Brad Till FG
St. Mary 33, O'Neill 1
The remarkable turnaround season for the Monarchs continued as they shut down the potent O'Neill offence, allowing only a rouge by Brandon Costello on a kickoff. The win advanced St. Mary to the league championship Thursday night at Oshawa Civic (7 p.m.) against Sinclair.
Quarter-final playoffs
St. Mary 37, Eastdale 0
Tyler DeCarios posted 13 scoring points with three field goals and four point-afters on touchdowns by Raishaun Provo, Damien Lombardi, Carmen Scala and Matt Boujos. The shutout was St. Mary's fourth in five games.
St. Mary: Tyler DeCarios 3FG, 4C; Raishaun Provo TD; Damien Lombardi TD; Carmen Scala TD; Matt Boujos TD
Sinclair 21, Notre Dame 0
The Sinclair Celtics booked a semifinal date with Ajax as they turned back an injury-depleted lineup from Notre Dame. Tre Ducasse, Paul Watkins and Garrett Arsenault each reached the house once while Jordan Kotyluk added a two-point convert and Dylan Lee kicked a convert.
Sinclair: Tre Ducasse TD, Paul Watkins TD, Garrett Arsenault TD, Jordan Kotyluk 2ptC, Dylan Lee C
O'Neill 53, Uxbridge 14
Trey Campbell and Dylan Hall combined for five O'Neill touchdowns at the Red Hawks eliminated the Tigers from post-season play. Patrick Kepa and Matt Cox each posted one touchdown while Brendan Costello added 11 kicking points. Callen Hageman and Matt Edwards, each with one touchdown, replied for Uxbridge.
O'Neill: Trey Campbell 3TD; Dylan Hall 2TD; Patrick Kepa TD; Matt Cox TD; Brendan Costello FG, 7C, S
Uxbridge: Callen Hageman TD, 2C; Matt Edwards TD
Ajax 19, St. Stephen 14
Trailing 14-13, a turnover on downs late in the fourth quarter gave the Rams one last chance. They responded with two pass completions, the second of which saw the ball placed on the one-yard line due to a penalty following the play. Tommy Kemp's one-yard plunge gave Ajax their first lead of the game with only 29 seconds remaining.
Ajax: Bradley Benedetto 2TD; Tommy Kemp TD; Brad Till C
St. Stephen: Matthew Peters TD, 2C; Kyle Rideout TD
Tier One Junior
Holy Trinity 34, Donald A. Wilson 27
Trailing by 21 with just over three minutes remaining, a furious fourth-quarter comeback by the three-time defending champions fell just short when Josh Ritchie intercepted a Gator pass deep in Titans territory in the final minute. Six turnovers (four interceptions, two fumbles) by Wilson played a prominent role in the outcome.
Trinity: Nathan Jones 2TD, 3 2PtC Alex Olay TD, 2PtC; Mikey Akeson TD; Stan Knowlton SFT

Eastdale: Aaron Young 2TD; Chris Desouza TD; Sebastien Malette C
J. Clarke Richardson 33, St. Stephen 0
The pounding running style of George Goudogianis proved to be too much for the Royals to handle as the second-seeded Richardson Storm qualified for the Tier II championship. Goudogianis tallied three touchdowns. Quarterback J'van Manhertz and Tevin Lawrence each had one while Tyler Knights-Rocheleau kicked two converts.
J. Clarke: George Goudogianis 3TD, S; J'van Manhertz TD; Tevin Lawrence TD; Tyler Knights-Rocheleau 2C
St. Stephen 14, Uxbridge 13
Tyler McNicholl converted both Royals touchdowns, one by himself and one by Evan Reece, which gave the Royals a slim one-point margin of victory over the Tigers.

"Zane," I placed my hand on his chest, looking over my shoulder into the woods. The scent of death overpowered my nostrils, making them burn. "You better put on your superhero cape. We're about to get some unwanted villains."
He glanced down at me, eyes unfazed. "Piper, how many times do I have to tell you? I'm not the hero."
My hands clutched his shirt. "You are to me." Ice coated my insides. Hallows. They were approaching, fast.
The hardness in Zane's expression softened. "Declan, I hope you're ready to unleash your inner Chuck Norris."
Declan cracked his knuckles. "I'm already game. Let's use these assholes as dartboards."
"Should I call—" …for backup, but it was too late. They were already here. A strange, almost prickling of anticipation twisted through me as the hallows emerged from the tree lines. Their eyes appeared first, breaking through the darkness like a dozen lanterns. They dipped and glided along the ground, coming straight for us.
I braced myself as the frightening hissing filled the air. The sight was jarring, and I was so glad to have Zane, Declan, and even Crash present.
I remained in place, trying to control my inner turmoil and ignored Crash.
Zane, on the other hand, didn't have my self-control. He pointed a finger in Crash's face. "By God, if you try any funny business, I'll kill you with my bare hands. And she's not your cupcake."
The sucky thing about being in the middle of nowhere…no streetlights. The only light we had was the measly bit of moonlight illuminating through the thick trees, hitting small sections of the clearing. I was going to have to rely heavily on my other senses and instinct.
A strip of darkness filled the center of the glade, and that was where the ghosts came from. Straight down the middle. As they drew closer, so did the scent of decay. It was a noticeable smell I'd never detected before, but as my banshee abilities strengthened, so did my other senses.
"Game on," Crash said, and stepped out of his body, emerging a wolf. He let a howl, long and high.

Sometimes cases turn on a single word or phrase, whether those pivotal words are found in a statute, regulation, rule, handbook or an email. It's a rarity that those singular expressions or phrases have as widespread an impact as the words at issue in a Supreme Court decision issued today. In a 6 -2 ruling (Justice Kagan took no part in the consideration or decision of the case), the Supreme Court clarified the meaning of the words "filed any complaint" from the Fair Labor Standards Act's (FLSA) anti-retaliation provision. Kasten v. Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics Corp.
While employers will not be pleased with the Court's ruling, the opinion adds some much-needed clarity to the issue of what constitutes protected activity under the FLSA's anti-retaliation provision. In the end, both employers and employees may find that Court's opinion is beneficial.
When Is A Complaint A "Complaint"?
Kevin Kasten worked in the Saint-Gobain's facility in Portage, Wisconsin from October, 2003, until December, 2006. In 2006, Kasten received several disciplinary warnings due to several "issues" he had with clocking in and out. Kasten's first disciplinary action included the following warning: "[i]f the same or any other violation occurs in the subsequent 12-month period from this date of verbal reminder, a written warning may be issued." Kasten's second disciplinary action included the following warning: "[i]f the same or any other violation occurs in the subsequent 12-month period from this date [sic] will result in further disciplinary action up to and including termination."
Kasten's third write-up contained the following warning: "[t]his is the last step of the disciplinary process" and warned that another violation could result in further discipline, including termination. In December 2006, after a fourth violation of the time clock policy, Saint Gobain suspended Kasten, and subsequently terminated his employment for these repeated violations.
Kasten alleged that he complained to several superiors, and a Human Resources employee, regarding the placement of the time clocks from approximately October 2006 until his termination in December 2006. Specifically, Kasten alleged that the location of the time clocks was illegal and that if he [Mr. Kasten] were to challenge the company in court, the company would lose. None of Kasten's alleged complaints were made in writing.

Below are the best three songs that come up when I search my media player for the word mother, what are yours? A few others that came up for me were:
- We Share Our Mother's Health, The Knife
- Matilda Mother, Pink Floyd
- Mothers, Sisters, Daughters & Wives, Voxtrot
- Mother's Little Helper, The Rolling Stones
- My Mother Was A Chinese Trapez Artist, The Decemberists
Song two is from The Veils, who I discussed once upon a time in this entry.
The third track is from the final album by the now-defunct Beulah, who were associated with Elephant 6. Wiki: "Beulah themselves had stated that, if Yoko did not achieve gold status, the band would split. Though it received the best reviews of the band's career, scoring Universal Acclaim on Metacritic and described as a "career-spanning epic" by Dusted Magazine, the record still failed to achieve gold status, and consequently the band, after one final tour, split up, ending with a free concert at New York's Battery Park at Castle Clinton on August 5, 2004. Recently, a DVD chronicling their last tour in fall 2003, titled A Good Band is Easy to Kill (referring to the band's song "A Good Man is Easy to Kill", which, in turn, references lead singer Miles's love for Flannery O'Connor) was released, again to much praise. In 2005, all four Beulah albums, as well as the single "My Horoscope Said It Would Be a Bad Year," were released on iTunes after fans suggested they be easily accessible.

The nursery and landscape industry in Florida, second in the nation in sales behind California, hopes to emerge from an economic decline that began in 2006. Business owners are hopeful that business will pick up this spring as the harsh winter has left landscapes messy and consumers will look to buy plants to improve the conditions. "Spring is our holiday season, basically," said Craig Fishel, a Home Depot spokesman.

Note: Sample below may appear distorted but all corresponding word document files contain proper formattingExcerpt from essay:
In this system, in which we must increasingly compete for students and research dollars and create new sources of funding, international university rankings are the utmost importance." (Probert, 2006) it is emphasized in this report that these changes are of great significance toward ensuring "greater strategic capacity within the Faculty." Probert (2006) relates two key changes which have been proposed and states them as follows:
1) the reduction in number of existing departments to ensure increased accountability and improved governance structures, and;
2) the creation of a Faculty Executive based on the Heads of School and key Associate Deans. (Probert, 2006)
There are two benefits from these changes noted and stated specifically is: "Growing Esteem requires us to work collaboratively as a Faculty in new ways (for example, in the management of the BA, the improvement of the graduate student experience, development of Graduate Schools, multi-disciplinary teaching and research, as well as the imperative of reducing dysfunctional competition and duplication). If we want to create a more collaborative way of working across disciplines and traditional boundaries then we need an Executive in which this is put into practice as a matter of course. Second, the existing large number of very varied organizational units leads to uneven leadership and management capacity - resulting in faculty decision-making that is less than optimal. We need a strong, smaller group of Heads capable of representing School, discipline and multi-disciplinary interests within the broader Faculty. These considerations, combined with the Faculty's widely shared commitment to collegiality and academic coherence, have led to the proposal that the Faculty's current organizational units be restructured from sixteen departments to seven Schools." (Probert, 2006)
It is further agreed that membership of the key committees of the Faculty should be upon the basis of "functional principles." (Probert, 2006) This includes the nomination of members able to provide effective representation and who "can be held accountable for their work, while at the same time the Faculty is assured of well-informed and relevant input in all areas." (Probert, 2006) Each school should have representation on the key committees of the faculty as well. Stated to be of equal importance is the "recognition that overly complicated administrative structures and organizational units hinder the ability of talented professional staff to provide exemplary services to students and staff alike." (Probert, 2006) Also stated to be equally important is the recognition "that overly complicated administrative structures and organizational units hinder the ability of talented professional staff to provide exemplary services to students and staff alike." (Probert, 2006) it is related that the services must be "more efficient and streamlined" to provide support for students and staff which will involve reconfiguration of the way services are delivered and that this will involve removal of duplication and reconsideration of existing organizational groupings to change groupings to be upon the basis of the performance or functions of services or service provision.
It is stated in relation to 'external' factors that the University and Faculty both are presently greatly dependent on "non government sources of revenue, at the same time as international student fee income is declining in traditional markets, and research funding is threatened by increasing levels of competition." (Probert, 2006) it is related that the University is seeking a reduction in its reliance "on Commonwealth funded undergraduate teaching" and that a need exists for development of "the highest quality graduate courseworth programs, and ensure levels of postgraduate research enrollment from international markets as well as nationally." (Probert, 2006) Stated in the area of internal factors is that the University has stated as one of the 'Growing Esteem' key principles as being reconsideration of approaches previously considered for revenue increase and that while there was "previously...a reliance mostly on increasing enrollments in international, undergraduate programs at the University" that it is "clear that the intention is now to diversify revenue streams with a shift of student load from undergraduate to graduate teaching." (Probert, 2006) in order to achieve this there must be an "increase in quality and strategic focus at every level." (Probert, 2006) in order to achieve these two goals it is necessary that high levels of staff development and management be in existence at the School level. The basis of budgeting decisions is stated to be upon the "explicit planning in the context of 'Growing Esteem'." (Probert, 2006)
It is articulated in the Melbourne Model that a need exist to make provision f "an exemplary postgraduate student experience" and that the logic conclusion appears to be the consideration of the relationship between coursework and research along with recognition of the commonalities "whilst maintaining the distinctiveness of each program." (Probert, 2006) Considered are stated to be the "opportunity to achieve economies of scale and redirect resources toward supporting this cohort" a well as the "opportunity to reduce the duplication that currently occurs across three sections in the Secretariat in relation to student selection and administration." (Probert, 2006) Probert states that reduction of duplication is possible "across three sections in the Secretariat in relation to student selection and administration." (2006)
The Faculty has stated a need for reviewing all post-graduate coursework programs "in order to ensure viability and quality." (Probert, 2006) as well it is stated that the new generation BA will be required to demonstrate the following:
1) a focus on majors as the structuring principle of the degree and a requirement for the completion of at least one major;
2) a revised first year which provides a cohort experience and core skills, and opens up opportunities for further study; and 3) a requirement that all students undertake 75 points of study (25 points at each year level) outside the Faculty of Arts. (Probert, 2006)
In order to develop and support this approach which is more structured in nature there is a requirement for development of structures that are new and that support both collaboration and strategic decision-making. As well, this presents the opportunity to "set down broad educational principles for our first year students, and to construct a stable and coherent set of subjects which provide a foundation for future, discipline-based study." (Probert, 2006)
In relation to the process of consultation it is related by Probert that the following steps were taken:
1) Appointment of an external consultant who will assist in the development and management of a consultative approach that is very thorough with the Deans and the Faculty General Manager;
2) Creation of a consultation website has been established and on which "all working documents relating to every aspect of the review were posted and on which all staff could post comments and contributions of any kind." (Probert, 2006)
3) Key position papers which made identification of principles that were agreed upon and that reported stages in decision making were posted on the Faculty's consultation website; and 4) Proposals for the structure of new Schools and Faculty Portfolios were circulated for discussion to the Standing Committee of Heads. (Probert, 2006)
Three academic working groups were formed to focus on:
1) Academic programs;
2) Decision making; and 3) Arts Strategy. (Probert, 2006)
Investigation by the Academic Programs Group included the following areas:
Mechanisms for supporting the Melbourne Model
Support mechanisms for increased multi-disciplinarily
Administrative processes that could be streamlined
The degree regulations that could be simplified
Possible models for the new generation BA. (Probert, 2006)
The Decision Making Group is stated to have investigated the following:
Governance and management structures across the Faculty
The optimum size of a School / Department.
Faculty committee composition
Where decisions are best made in relation to Faculty and School governance
Structures that support the Faculty's strategic goals and those of the University
The composition and function of Executive (Probert, 2006)
Stated to be that which the Arts Strategy Group investigated were:
Values to be articulated by our academic programs;
The implications of providing an excellent, responsive BA to larger groups of students;
Strategies of retaining the BA as a degree in its own right and not only a pathway to other degrees; an d
The appeal of the new generation BA to students to a broader range of students. (Probert, 2006)
Probert (2006) relates that the working party was established for the purpose of providing a systematic definition and review of possible Graduate Schools in the Faculty of Arts. In addition the working groups were also involved in development of the schools response to the proposals which emerged for the +2 of the 3+2+3 model. Requirements of the working party are those as follows:
1) Develop a position paper on the role of Graduate Schools in Arts and the difference between Graduate Schools and other Masters coursework programs;
2) Through consultation across the Faculty identify all existing suggestions for the development of Graduate Schools, and establish a process and timeframe for developing each proposal (bringing together key people from within and without the University), and bringing them to Executive, SCHD and Curriculum Review Committee for…[continue]

Prestowitz (2005) addresses the incongruity that this is presenting to the American laborer. Even as education costs continue their annual climb, the competition for jobs in service and technology industries is making a loser out of the American white-collar worker.

Above all else, senior management must show belief in and a strong commitment to the change as well for it to succeed (Aladwani, 2001). Best practices in this area are achieved when companies rely on transformational or Coach-based leadership relative to transactional or authoritarian-based means (Ash, Burn, 2003). The greater the belief those most affected by the ERP implementation see the new system as a compliment to what they are
Generally, those same performance objectives also contribute directly to the strength of internal measures of operational success. A commitment to quality on the part of organizations and their personnel is naturally conducive to customer satisfaction; however, it is equally beneficial to the organization internally because genuine commitment on the level of individual employees is infectious, just as are negative attitudes. Likewise, employees who are recruited and trained to be efficient

Rio's interim result was well flagged, so there was nothing surprising about the numbers themselves. Rio Tinto reported an 18% fall in underlying earnings to US$4.2bn for the half year ended 30 June due to lower commodity prices. In contrast, operating cash flow increased 62% to US$5.5bn due to lower taxes (including the Minerals Resources Tax) paid, and from underlying earnings per share of US$2.29 a fully franked dividend of US83.5 cents was declared (ex date Aug 14).
Rio Tinto: Interim result 2013
Lower iron ore prices have hurt profits but Rio's focus on cashflow and cost cutting means it's well on the way to redemption.

The Summer Olympics are coming! We're less than two months away from the opening ceremonies, so I guess it's time to start getting excited about finally having our every-four-years itch for world-class track and gymnastics scratched. Except it's different this time around. At last count, nearly half of all Americans believe the Olympics should be delayed or cancelled altogether. I'm one of those Americans. We talk about all the reasons that going forward with the Summer Games is a mistake on this week's Unpopular Opinion podcast ...
... where I'm joined by comics Jeff May and Caitlin Cutt. It's also what I'm talking about in this column here today. Up first, let's get the most obvious concern out of the way.
5The Zika Virus
Remember the statistic I quoted earlier about Americans who believe the Olympics should be cancelled? It was like three sentences ago. Humor me and pretend you read the intro. Anyway, the people questioned in that survey were expressing their concerns about just one issue: the Zika virus.
It's kind of difficult to grasp how much of a problem Zika already is and could be in the future, because it's not one of those Hollywood movie plagues which cause people to bleed from the eyes and discharge their liquefied innards through their already-overworked orifices. In adults, the symptoms are similar to a mild version of dengue fever, if there are any symptoms at all.
However, pregnant women who become infected can spread it to their fetus, at which point the impact of the disease becomes way more noticeable. The standout performer in the arsenal of brain defects and issues it leads to is microcephaly, in which the brain stops developing in the womb. Since the brain isn't growing, the skull just kind of collapses around it, leaving your kid with a head that's approximately half the size of a normal head.
A small price to pay for getting Usain Bolt's autograph.
The Zika virus needs three things to be in place before it can truly take hold in any given area: the Aedes aegypti mosquito, crowded human dwellings, and poverty. The Olympics are in Brazil this year. If you're even sort of familiar with that place, you already know that two of those three things are so common there that they might as well be on the flag (along with guns and beautiful people). It won't surprise you at all to know they do, in fact, have the necessary mosquitoes as well. As a result, the CDC slapped a level 2 alert on the country to warn travelers about Zika. What does that mean? I don't know, but it's worse than level 1, and level 3 means you just shouldn't go there at all, so it's not great. And that's without thousands of people from all around the world converging on Rio at the exact same time.
Last month, 150 doctors signed a letter urging the World Health Organization to postpone or cancel the games. The WHO responded by releasing a statement meant to reassure us that the threat of Zika spreading during the Olympics was slim, because mosquito activity in Brazil is usually on the decline by August.
If that doesn't do much to make you feel better about it, you're not alone. Several scientists have already come forward to point out that what the WHO is saying is based, at least in part, on the idea that the weather will be cooler and less rainy in August. Mosquito eggs don't die; they just go dormant when the weather gets cold. However, that literally changes with the weather. Any sudden rise in heat or humidity, and those eggs will hatch. But hey, the weather's been pretty easy to predict lately, right?
Also, it's worth noting that the WHO is the same organization that accepted cash from food companies like Coca-Cola and Nestle in exchange for those companies having a say in how we fight obesity and diabetes in the United States. That's like letting drug cartels have a say in how to keep cocaine from entering the country. Call me crazy, but I think I trust those 150 doctors a little more than the WHO.
Even if the Zika virus doesn't become a pandemic as a result of the Olympics, it's still a pretty safe bet that at least some of the athletes brave enough to participate will get sick, because of ...
4The Pollution
Part of the appeal of the Olympics coming to town is that, in theory, some of the work done to get ready for a production of that magnitude will have long-term benefits for residents after the games end. That's probably not going to happen for Brazil. One of the biggest improvements was supposed to happen in Guanabara Bay, which looks beautiful from a distance in stock photos ...
So pretty!
... but a little less so when you see it up close.
It's brimming with raw sewage and other assorted pollutants. Back when the dream of the 2016 Olympics not becoming a full-on disaster was still alive, it was estimated that 50 percent of the water flowing into the bay was sewage. That's pretty gross, but the government of Brazil promised to reduce that by 80 percent before the opening ceremonies rolled around. Which was in the best interest of everyone, really, seeing as how a "super-bug" that's resistant to antibiotics was also found in the water around that time.
Unfortunately, Brazil being the hotbed of corruption that it is, the money that was allocated to clean up the bay has apparently gone missing, and the promise of a less polluted Guanabara Bay for Olympic athletes is now off the table. They swear the pollution doesn't pose a health risk, as does the IOC, but that's because none of their testing is checking for viral pathogens, like the super-bug mentioned earlier.
You can't possibly fathom how long I've been waiting for an excuse to use this stock photo.
Stories of athletes in practice events coming down with stomach illnesses have already started making the rounds online, but that's apparently not going to stop hundreds more from swimming or boating in literal shit water in pursuit of Olympic gold.
Even worse, the problem might even extend to the drinking water, as pointed out in this article which covers all the various immunizations a person should get before traveling to Brazil.
So even if Zika doesn't infect a single additional person as a result of the Olympics, the toilet water some athletes will be forced to compete in will still guarantee that a lot of people get sick. I suppose it's worth it if it means you might get to live the rock star lifestyle of an Olympic-medal-winning sailor afterward, but I certainly wouldn't want to risk it.

Divas and dabblers — The lesson of the crisis in English opera is that we have to overhaul how the arts are governed
Raphaela Papadakis seems to like 'playing with fire'. After her acclaimed performance as the put-upon maid, Anna, in Independent Opera's production of Šimon Voseček's Beidermann and the Arsonists at Sadler's Wells last year, she is currently rehearsing for the premiere this week of And London Burned, a new opera by Matt Rogers which has been commissioned by Temple Music Foundation to commemorate the 350th anniversary of The Great Fire of London.
Charlotte Higgins [The Guardian, 14 December 2005]
If Martin Smith, chairman of English National Opera, survives the week in his post, it will be a miracle. The opera company, once more famous for theatrical invention and fearlessness than for cock-ups, is in meltdown. The sacking of artistic director Seán Doran two weeks ago can only mean that the rumours which have been wafting out of the London Coliseum about financial troubles (despite an £11m Arts Council England bailout in 2003) are true. The council has condemned the coronation of Doran's successors - tantamount to a withdrawal of support from Smith. He, meanwhile, has self-deludingly posted a letter on the ENO website about the company's "genuine and very exciting renaissance". The words Nero, fiddling and Rome spring to mind.

Published on Jul 18, 2013 Editor's Pick Director Eliot Rausch -- who many remember from Expedia's TED-awarded spot "Understanding" -- brings us Under Armour's "Ready for August," a long-form story at the heart of the company's new #IWILL campaign. The nearly 5-minute film depicts the day-to-day lives of high school football players and inner-city setting. The beautifully shot video is made up of moments -- from young men rising early and traveling via train, bicycle and truck carpool to get to practice to scenes of them leaving home lives behind, focusing all of their emotions, aggression, and athleticism into drills. Many train with the fantasy of going pro and making it out of the conditions they were raised in. The locker-room speech voiceover urges them to ask "What makes me different?" A competitive streak and determination helps a player improve and eventually stand out, bringing him a step closer to realizing his dreams, like his idols have done before him. Under Armour and UBER Content teamed up with retired Baltimore Raven Ray Lewis -- who also provides the voiceover -- whose own story is similar to the one told here, to create the campaign.

At the Master's Hearing the parties' adult son testified that during the past six years appellant had accused her husband of infidelity on numerous occasions and that these accusations were unjustified, had called her husband "bastard" and other abusive names several times a week during that period, had told her husband that she hated him on numerous occasions, had refused to cook for her family or to do normal household chores such as cleaning the house or washing their clothes even though appellant was employed
[ 266 Pa. Super. Page 117]
full time during that period and appellee was not steadily employed. He also testified that appellant had purchased a horse and other items which created financial difficulties for the parties and then blamed appellant for the difficulties. Appellant also threatened to kill herself on several occasions by taking an overdose of pills and had struck her husband in the face with a belt buckle drawing blood. Appellee also testified to the above occurrences. He further stated that after he had been in the hospital his wife told him that she'd "wished the hell he'd died" there. He also related to the Master several situations wherein the appellant had damaged household goods and appliances during fits of anger. He stated that his wife's conduct towards him made him extremely nervous and that he had to seek medical attention for the nervous condition which was caused by his wife's conduct. Appellee went on to testify that since the parties' separation his nerves have been much better and that attempts at counseling failed to change his wife's conduct.
Appellant testified that it was her husband who had been abusive towards her, that she was often sick so that she required hospitalization and that she had caught her husband in a sexual act with another woman. (Both the appellee and the woman denied having sex together.) Appellant also denied virtually all of the allegations against her to which her husband had testified.
In his report, the Master stated that: ". . . the testimony made a record which was difficult to analyze and to evaluate as to credibility." However, he went on to conclude that: "5. Plaintiff is entitled to a decree in divorce from the bonds of matrimony on the grounds of indignities to the person." It is apparent that the Master resolved the conflicts in testimony in plaintiff's favor. The court below then granted a decree in divorce to plaintiff.
Great weight must be accorded to the findings of the court below or the Master if the issues of credibility are ones that are necessarily resolved by personal observations. Hargrove v. Hargrove, 252 Pa. Super. 120, 381 A.2d 143 (1977). A master in a divorce action is not required to state
[ 266 Pa. Super. Page 118]
specifically why he credited one party's testimony over another's testimony. Dougherty v. Dougherty, 235 Pa. Super. 122, 339 A.2d 81 (1975).
In the instant case the Master's findings, clearly indicate that he resolved the conflict in the parties' testimony in favor of the plaintiff. Since the conflict in testimony is of such a nature that it could be resolved by personal observations we are constrained to grant great weight to his findings.
Indignities may consist of vulgarity, unmerited reproach, habitual contumely, studied neglect, intentional incivility, manifest disclaim, abusive language, or malignant ridicule. Hargrove v. Hargrove, supra. The testimony of the plaintiff regarding his spouse's constant verbal abuse of him, constant accusations of infidelity, and constant expressions of contempt and hatred of the plaintiff were sufficient facts to constitute the offense of indignities and although his testimony was contradicted by appellant it was not shaken.
Therefore, we hold that the court below was correct in granting the plaintiff a divorce on the grounds of indignities.
Order and decree affirmed.

How to publish PowerPoint to standalone Flash slides with iSpring Suite DX
iSpring products help not only regular users but also professional developers who use PowerPoint presentations within their applications and services. iSpring Suite DX is a desktop product with extended functionality featuring more output options and a Slide API.
The capability to generate standalone Flash slides was included in previous iSpring versions (6 and earlier). It's a real life-saver in situations when you need to build a slide deck in a third-party application or website by loading separate SWFs one by one. This option is now available in Suite DX 7.
To convert a .ppt or .pptx file to standalone Flash slides, do the following:
- Open a PowerPoint presentation you'd like to convert.
- Click Publish on the iSpring Suite DX ribbon.
- Check the Standalone slides (Flash) option.
- Go ahead and hit Publish to start conversion.
This will create separate .swf slides and a data folder that may contain embedded objects on slides.
On the Advanced tab of the Publish window, set the Detach Media Content setting according to your preference. If unchecked, all media resources will be contained within the .swf – if checked, media files will be stored separately in the data folder.
Standalone slides are always used in a third-party player, so no iSpring Player (such as the Universal Player) will be included. Hence, in this mode, the Player drop-down menu and Customize button are greyed out.
The iSpring Narration Editor lets you add video and audio narrations to a presentation. Since narrations can be used only with the iSpring Player, Standalone Flash slides will not preserve any narrations added with iSpring. Use PowerPoint's internal audio or video insert options instead.
Keep in mind that transition effects will not be preserved either because slides will appear separately and won't be connected with each other.
Now you can design your own slide viewer and integrate your Flash slides into an application, a web page or a blog.

Reading as a Writing and Revising Strategy.
Selfe, Cynthia L.
To explore the role of one specific revision strategy--reading and rereading pieces of text--in the composing process, case studies were made of two college freshman writers: Jim, who was highly apprehensive about the process of composing, and David, who was not at all apprehensive about writing. Specifically, videotapes of the students' composing aloud processes were examined and transcripts of interviews with the two students were reviewed to see how they used reading as they wrote. Findings revealed that Jim did not use reading to discover and articulate his thoughts. David, on the other hand, interrupted his writing more frequently than did Jim to read what he had written, and also employed a much wider range of reading strategies. Reading seemed to serve David as a multipurpose writing strategy, a catalyst that helped him make decisions about the rhetorical effectiveness of his prose, his audience and their needs, the purpose of his paper, and the grammatical problems he recognized. Jim's and David's reading activities also differed dramatically after they finished their first drafts. David spent more time engaged in rereading portions of his completed first drafts and used rereading as a strategy for "re-seeing" his paper. (HOD)

1995 Dodge Ram 2500 ProblemsEngine Will Crank But Not Start Due to Fuel Return Line Leak
If the engine is difficult to start or cranks but does not start, it can be caused by a leak in the return side of the fuel system. This type of leak can allow air to enter the injection pump resulting in starting issues. A rubber hose on the back of the injection pump, connecting the pump to the steel hard line, that can be the source of this type of leak.
On some models a void in the rear window seal may cause a water leak. Water may be present on or under the carpet. The seal will need to be replaced if that is the source.
On the 3.9L V6 and 5.2L V8, rerouting the ignition coil wire and spark plug wires can help solve a misfire and/or surge problem that occurs at approximately 45 mph. A service bulletin was published that outlines the specifics of the repair. It states the rerouting procedure should be performed before other repairs are done for misfires, surging or spark knock.

1995 Dodge Ram 2500 RecallsChrysler Recalls 1994-1999 Dodge Rams Due to Corrosion on the Secondary Hood Latch
Chrysler has recalled certain 1994-1999 Dodge Ram 1500/2500 models in areas that use road salt because corrosion of the return spring on the hood secondary latch could cause the mechanism to bind in the "release position." This may cause the hood to open unexpectedly. Dealers will replace the secondary hood latch.
Chrysler has recalled certain 1994-1996 Dodge Ram 1500/2500 models equipped with Diesel engines because the throttle cable could unravel (fray) or break, which may cause a loss of throttle control. A throttle that does not return to idle may lead to unexpected acceleration. Dealers will inspect and replace the throttle cable and upper bell crank lever.
Chrysler has recalled certain 1994-1996 Dodge Ram 1500/2500 light duty pickup trucks because they were built with an ignition switch and wiring that may overheat. Dealers will install a relay and overlay harness.

In 2016, UNICEF and partners plan for:
2.3 million
people in high-risk areas accessed basic health services
unaccompanied and separated children provided with access to basic services
labour-constrained households receive predictable monthly cash transfers
2016 Requirements: US$82,268,287
Total affected population: 4.9 million
Total affected children: 2 million
Total people to be reached in 2016: 3.6 million
Total children to be reached in 2016: 1.5 million
Somalia ranks extremely low across a range of human development indicators, as well as humanitarian and development indexes.1 One out of every 18 women dies during childbirth;2 about 1.7 million children are out of school;3 one in every seven children under 5 years is acutely malnourished; and 44,000 children are severely malnourished. The prevalence of wasting and stunting in Somalia is among the highest in the region and in the world.4 In addition, more than 1 million people remain displaced5 and 973,0006 Somalis are refugees in neighbouring countries due to conflict and insecurity. Military operations launched in July 2015 triggered new displacements in parts of central and southern Somalia and the internally displaced are further affected by forced evictions. The El Niño weather phenomenon may contribute to worsening floods in Puntland and the southern and central regions, and may exacerbate drought conditions in Somaliland. The influx of returnees and refugees fleeing the conflict in Yemen is increasing the burden on already limited basic services. An estimated 29,310 people fled to Somalia from Yemen between March 2015, when the conflict began, and the end of September 2015.7
Humanitarian strategy
2016 Programme Targets
- 110,000 children under 5 years suffering from SAM admitted to therapeutic treatment programmes
- 2.3 million people in high-risk areas accessed basic health services
- 445,000 children under 1 year immunized against measles
- 642,000 people provided with safe water (7.5-15 litres per person per day)
- 200,000 people in emergency situations have access to gender-sensitive sanitation facilities equipped with hand washing facilities
Child protection
- 1,500 unaccompanied and separated children provided with access to basic services
- 50,000 school-aged children, including adolescents, accessed quality education (including through temporary structures)
Social protection
- 16,000 labour-constrained households received predictable monthly cash transfers
In Somalia, UNICEF is working to prevent mortality and morbidity, increase access to services and promote community resilience. Polio eradication remains a top priority and despite the interruption of polio transmission for more than a year, UNICEF is working to ensure a regional polio-free certification in two years time. As part of the ongoing response to the May 2014 measles outbreak, UNICEF is implementing emergency vaccination campaigns across Somalia in conjunction with polio immunization activities. In the area of nutrition, UNICEF will provide a package of curative, preventive and promotion-oriented nutrition interventions, and will strengthen the implementation capacity of the Government, partners and communities. Life-saving and resilience initiatives will be promoted by increasing access to safe water; supporting emergency sanitation; extending community-led total sanitation approaches to flood, drought and disease-prone areas; and maintaining immediate response capacity through 10 supply hubs across the Central South Zone. UNICEF will facilitate the disengagement and reintegration of children associated with armed groups, monitoring and reporting on grave violations, and prevention and response to gender-based violence. UNICEF is also working to improve access to and capacity for quality emergency education. Since the African Union Mission in Somalia offensives in March 2014, UNICEF has continued to provide a package of basic life-saving interventions in newly accessible areas. UNICEF will also continue to utilize Communication for Development as a cross-cutting approach to achieve programme results in all sectors.
Results from 2015
As of 31 October 2015, UNICEF had received 46 per cent (US$51.4 million) of the US$111.7 million 2015 appeal, in addition to US$46.8 million carried forward from 2014. In 2015, UNICEF admitted 79,523 children under 5 years with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) into therapeutic treatment programmes, supported 328,514 children under 5 years to access essential health services, and enabled 79,376 pregnant women to attend antenatal visits. Some 10,200 vulnerable people received cash transfers, enabling them to meet critical basic needs. In 2015, UNICEF supported efforts to identify, trace and reunify 666 separated and unaccompanied children, and assisted 8,937 children and women survivors of physical and sexual violence and 769 children formerly associated with armed forces and groups with quality essential services. Some 22,455 children and adolescents in temporary learning spaces received education support and 1,106 members of community education committees were trained to provide effective school management. The UNICEF resilience programme worked to build the capacity of local communities to address health concerns and protect and educate their children. Although the urgent needs of women and children continued to increase, overall programme implementation was challenged by limited humanitarian access and severe funding gaps.
Funding requirements
In line with the country's inter-agency 2016 Humanitarian Response Plan, UNICEF is requesting US$82 million to meet the humanitarian needs of children in Somalia in 2016. This includes US$1 million for emergency support and cluster coordination. Without additional funding, UNICEF will be unable to support the national response to the country's continuing nutrition crisis, as well as critical WASH, health and protection services. Basic supplies for primary education are also urgently needed to uphold children's right to education. This funding will facilitate the continuity of basic services for the most vulnerable and will contribute to building resilience in the face of future shocks.
