The usual stars on the gridiron are the quarterback, the running backs, the wide receivers or the violent tacklers from a stifling defense. Rockford has plenty of talent to fit all of those descriptions on this year's team. Kyle Short, Sam Reinke, KC Zenner, Brent Showers and Randy Garvin are just several of the headliners on a typically talented Rockford squad. But in the Ram's stunning 35-28 come from behind victory over West Ottawa, it was a pair of players who perform under the radar regularly who really rose to the occasion and made plays in critical situations.
Steven Bilski has started several games at cornerback for Rockford and rotated in and out of the lineup with regularity. But with Rockford trailing 28-21 and trying desperately to get the ball back with four minutes left in the game it was time for him to show his moxie.
Tyler VanTubbergen had riddled the Rockford defense repeatedly all game long with his incredible scrambles and precise throws from the quarterback position for the Panthers. But facing pressure, he tried to force a throw into tight coverage while rolling to his left. Bilski not only provided the tight coverage, he dove in front of the receiver to make a sprawling interception that set the Rams up at the Panther 27. It was his first career interception.
"Steven Bilski made what we call a "MAD" play there," said Rockford defensive coordinator Randy VanderVeen. "That stands for make a difference and that is exactly what he did in a pressurized situation. It was an opportunity for him to shine and he really made an incredible interception."
The Rams quickly punched the ball into the end zone to thrill the team and it's fans and make it a 28-27 game. But that thrill quickly turned to disappointment as the extra point just sailed by the right upright to keep it a 28-27 contest with only 2:12 to play. The Panther fans rose as one to celebrate the errant kick and the unexpected gift that would send them on to their first win over Rockford in the last twelve games.
But out trotted an even more unlikely hero for Rockford. Curran Schoff doesn't leave a very large physical imprint with his 5'9" 148 pound physique. But he left a huge impression on all in attendance with what happened next. Schoff calmly teed up the ball at the Ram 40 and sent a blistering onside kick towards the front wall of the receiving team. The ball caromed off a Panther and was recovered by Connor Grady at the Ram 48-yard line. Two plays later Connor Darby put the Rams on top for good and the home crowd was truly in a frenzy as the final seconds ticked off in the stirring triumph.
"What a great kick by Curran Schoff there," said Rockford special teams coordinator Steve Dengler. "He has not only done a great job all year holding for kicks, he got the chance and delivered perfectly when we most needed it. I am so happy for him."
Rockford head coach Ralph Munger was also thrilled for Schoff. "Curran Schoff has been practicing onside kicks for eleven weeks and came up huge for us," said Munger. "He wasn't remotely apprehensive when he got the chance and did exactly what we needed him to do. He wasn't overly apprehensive, he kicked it perfectly and the recovery team guys did a great job too. It was like Curran was willing it to happen for our seniors."

If you are a parent and you divorce, the parent the child lives with often receives money (child support) from the parent no longer living with the child. Unlike alimony, which is paid to maintain an ex-spouse's lifestyle, child support pays for the child's physical, emotional, and educational needs. A child support lawyer can help parents negotiate and calculate child support, either by agreement or in court. While national guidelines to calculate child support amounts exist, you or the judge may choose to calculate the amount based on your income and the child's needs. If you believe you are not the father of a child and want to contest a child support claim, a child support lawyer can also help you determine paternity. A child support lawyer can be useful during negotiations to help objectively determine the most appropriate amount of child support for your situation and protect against paternity fraud.

Program prepares new administrators for the job ahead :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Last year, Zoila Garcia packed her bags and went to Washington, D.C., where she attended class, did her homework and lived in a dorm.
While she may seem to have more in common with her college-age daughter, Garcia's classes weren't aimed at getting an undergraduate degree. They were aimed at getting a new job. Garcia is now the newly appointed principal of Whittier Elementary School in Chicago and a recent graduate of New Leaders for New Schools, a national principal training program.
New Leaders works to prepare educators for principal positions in urban schools, says Ben Fenton, executive director for Chicago's program. It started in 2001 in New York and Chicago, and now includes schools in Washington, D.C., Memphis, Tenn., and Oakland, Calif.
To date, all of the graduates from the Chicago program have been offered jobs in Chicago Public Schools, says Fenton. Garcia was one of more than 200 applicants for New Leaders in Chicago, although the program accepted only 21 applicants in 2004, says Fenton. The Chicago candidates graduated this summer. Foruteen others graduated in 2003 and seven in 2002, says Fenton.
The program tries to match the number of admitted candidates to the needs of the school district, Fenton says. "There is just a significant need for a new volume of principals," Fenton says, since many current principals will reach retirement age in the next few years.
The program also is limited by the number of residency spots available and its high admission standards, Fenton says.
As part of the training process, Garcia spent six weeks in Washington, D.C., with the other 55 New Leaders trainees from around the country. They attended class six days a week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., then dispersed to various cities to work for a year with an established principal.
Garcia spent the 2003-2004 school year working with the principal at Galileo Scholastic Academy in Chicago, where she helped make decisions and received a hands-on experience, she says. "For me it's been the best preparation program that I could have had," she says.
Before being hired as principal at Whittier Elementary, Garcia spent 12 years teaching at Inter-American Magnet School, a dual-language school. She first thought about becoming a principal after the principal of Inter-American announced plans to retire. Garcia says she still thinks of herself as a teacher and is eager to start her new position. "I feel very confident," she says. Alissa Calabrese

The Viability of an International Draft
International News
Last summer, Pirates Prospects had a point-counterpoint piece regarding the possibility of a truly international draft. Since that time, the new Collective Bargaining Agreement installed a $2.9M cap on international signing bonuses for each of the 30 teams. Considering that the Pirates spent $2.6M on just Luis Heredia in 2010, you can see how this will greatly crimp the international signing period. Many teams, such as the Yankees and Rangers, have laid out extravagent expenditures yearly on multiple 16-year olds, so this will definitely change those spending habits.
It is possible that MLB is using the aforementioned $2.9M international spending cap as a precursor to an international draft. This interim step will allow teams to grow accustomed to working with a budget for the intern...

Ly Nha Ky quits Vietnam tourism ambassador race
Tuoi Tre
Updated : 03/14/2013 20:09 GMT + 7
Model-turned-actress and businesswoman Ly Nha Ky, the first tourism ambassador of Vietnam, today announced her decision to quit the 2013 tourism ambassador race through a heartfelt letter and even refused to talk to media.
>> Ky leads tourism ambassador race
>> Tourism Ambassador's background raises eyebrows
>> Tourism ambassador raises $288,000 for kids
"My health condition is not good… Slanderous words against my last year's position have had a tremendous influence on my family and relatives," she wrote.
In the letter, Ky also reassessed her work as the last year's tourism ambassador: "I did my utmost not to betray trust and expectations from people and the state leaders. Some supported and some did not when I officially took the position."
"Some people even tried to hurt me in different ways. But then the mission to promote the country was most important to me."
"My greatest happiness is that I have contributed to making people more interested in promoting the country's image to the world as well as to help raise public awareness of Vietnam's tourism development," she continued.
She also remembered good memories "which helped her live a more meaningful life" when Ha Long Bay was named one of world's 7 new wonders of nature and Hanoi was granted the right to host ASIA 2019 last year.
Ky hoped the country will find a more worthy candidate who is able to fullfil all expectations of Vietnamese people.
Luong Trong Nghia, her manager, confirmed with Tuoi Tre on Thursday: "She is too tired [for the position]. Mixed public opinions regarding her position really upset Ky's mother and hurt her family. She does not want to be a disrespectful daughter."
Nghia said Ky will continue to run her own business and is happy to give assistance to promote the country's tourism any time.
He added Ky will be willing to be contacted by local media in the coming days, not today [March 14].
Praise and criticism
Despite mixed public opinion on her performance as last year's ambassador, Ky, who is one of those credited with successfully promoting Ha Long Bay in the race to gain worldwide recognition as one of the new natural world wonders, stands a very good chance of becoming the new tourism ambassador, which is a voluntary and unpaid position, said a VnExpress report.
Armed with attractive looks, great popularity, excellent foreign language skills and good relations in art and business circles, Ky is capable of calling for financial support for Vietnamese tourism as well as making tourism promotion products on her own, Tran Nhat Hoang from the ministry noted.
The high-profile beauty is also very dedicated to the job, as she spent a considerable amount of time and her own money in promoting Ha Long Bay and helping Vietnam become the host of the Asian Games (ASIAD) in 2019, Hoang elaborated.
However, local press voiced concerns about the possibility of Ky's reelection that her scandalous lifestyle may taint Vietnam's tourism reputation.
The hesitation mostly stemmed from some shocking recent public statements and scandals, including showing too much skin and showing off her wealth and deluxe costumes on the internet.
"We're only responsible for Ky's public statements as the tourism ambassador, we don't care much about her personal life or scandals," said Nguyen Van Tinh, head of the ministry's International Cooperation Office.

Las Vegas • Miley Cyrus can't stop.
The pop singer was a crowd favorite at the iHeartRadio music festival day event Saturday in Las Vegas. Before she hit the stage, the crowd of a few hundred chanted: "Miley! Miley! Miley!"
The 20-year-old emerged onstage in all white, wearing a tight corset and high-waisted shorts that revealed some of her backside.
Her four-song set opened with the anthemic "We Can't Stop," where people onstage were dressed in flower, mushroom and rainbow costumes. She gyrated and slapped a dwarf-sized dancer's butt onstage. She followed the colorful performance with "Party In the USA."

Canadian manufacturing PMI growth slips for fifth straight month
By Claire Sibonney
TORONTO (Reuters) - Canadian manufacturing growth slowed for a fifth straight month in November and hit a more than two-year low, according to data released on Monday, signaling the third quarter's disappointing economic performance may persist for the rest of the year.
The RBC Canadian Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index was 50.38 last month, compared with 51.39 in October. It was the weakest reading since data collection began in October 2010, and came dangerously close to contraction.
Still, the index was slightly above the 50 mark that separates expansion from deterioration.
"Minimal growth in the manufacturing sector in November likely reflects the continued global economic uncertainty," Craig Wright, chief economist at Royal Bank of Canada, said in a statement.
"We expect the economic weak patch to be short-lived, however. As the downside risks plaguing the global economy start to ease, so will some of the weight on Canadian export demand and the broader manufacturing sector."
The data showed manufacturing production and new orders both fell, pushing overall activity in the manufacturing sector closer to negative territory. Employers did create jobs in November, the report said, but the pace of growth slowed to a seven-month low.
"November was one of the most difficult months for Canadian manufacturers in the past two years," said Cheryl Paradowski, chief executive at the Purchasing Management Association of Canada, which helps source the data. "This reflected weaker domestic and export market conditions. Nonetheless, firms continued to hire additional staff."

The $600 tuxedo was stolen off a mannequin at a bridal shop, so police called around to local schools and discovered that one of them had its prom over the weekend. The store owner then attended the prom and spotted the tux on the 18-year-old student, who was promptly arrested. The boy denied stealing the tux, but he gave some conflicting statements and was booked in jail on felony burglary and felony criminal damage charges. MORE HERE

I Can't Afford A Hotel While My Home Is Fumigated
Tom and his wife are facing a scary proposition: termites. In their home. They're renters, so they called the landlords. That's why people rent, right? So they have landlords who will take care of this stuff. And their landlords are happy to take care of it: by calling in exterminators to tent the house and kill any pests inside. That's okay, but requires vacating the house for a few days. Tom and Mrs. Tom don't have the money to cover a motel stay up front for the time they'll be required to be out of the house. Sure, they could sleep in their car and hang out at the library or something when they're not at work, but they have dogs. And they live in Florida. It's August. Even the cheapest motels that allow dogs are too expensive. What should they do?

A World Built on Pillars of Salt
Salt, long used as a flavor enhancer and preservative, scarcely garners a second thought from most people today, yet its influence throughout history has been immense. Salt: A World History (Walker & Co., 352 pages), traces the economic and cultural impact of this seasoning through the centuries, covering such far-flung areas as China, Italy, India, and the U.S. (for a review of the book, see BW, 1/28/02, "A Savory Story").
Author Mark Kurlansky even spices up his quirky and engrossing narrative with a few recipes, from salted cucumbers to garum (a preserved fish liquid) to one for "mothproof ham." The latter is a reminder that in the days before refrigeration, salt was a necessity for keeping foods edible over long periods. After reading this book, you'll think differently next time you bite into a pickle, use ketchup, or follow a de-icing truck down the road in the winter. Kurlansky, who lives in New York, recently spoke with BusinessWeek's Karin Pekarchik. Here are edited excerpts from their conversation:
Q: Where did the idea for this book come from? A:
Q: Where did the idea for this book come from?
A:I first began thinking about the significance of salt while working on Cod, which explored the salt-cod industry. From the Middle Ages on, the European market for salt cod was virtually limitless. So was the cod, after Europeans learned of the fishing grounds in North America. But the one limitation was salt. Sea salt was needed to cure fish and, since it is made by solar evaporation, it is [more thought of as] a southern product.
The valuable fish -- cod and herring -- are northern, so northern countries, especially England, conducted foreign policy with the goal of securing southern sea-salt supplies.
Q: Can you briefly recap salt's significance as a commodity? A:
Q: Can you briefly recap salt's significance as a commodity?
A:Everyone needed it, and it had no substitute. It was far more profitable to trade in salted goods -- salt fish, then olives, then ham, game, beef, and other meat, and cheese -- than to simply trade salt. Salt had the ability to turn perishable food into a durable trade commodity. For example, there was not much that could be done internationally with milk -- but a great deal could be done with cheese.
A fish is a local food -- but a salt fish is a commodity of international trade. Salt created other nonfood commodities such as textile dyes and pottery glaze, and today it has more uses than ever. [More recently] its value has declined, not because it has lost its uses but because the supply has become too easily obtained.
Q: What are the different ways that salt can be mined? A:
Q: What are the different ways that salt can be mined?
A:Sea salt is the most common [type], and it is [obtained] by pumping sea water into artificial ponds and letting the heat of the sun evaporate the water. Brine is pumped from underground springs and boiled. And rock salt is mined, crushed, and washed. There are also less common sources -- such as dried salt lakes in deserts, notably the Sahara, that are scraped up.
Salty seaside sand can be boiled, as can peat from bogs. But most of the world's salt comes from evaporated sea, brine springs, or rock-salt mines.
Q: Can you explain the significance of salt taxes? A:
Q: Can you explain the significance of salt taxes?
A:Governments have always found it tempting to tax salt because everyone, rich and poor, uses it at about the same rate, so it's a natural poll tax. Throughout history, poll taxes have been very unpopular because poor and middle-class people resent paying the same tax as the wealthy. So whenever salt taxes have been attempted -- in ancient China, France, Colonial India -- it has usually led to rebellions.
Q: Sodium chloride is the salt we eat. What are some of the other uses for salt? A:
Q: Sodium chloride is the salt we eat. What are some of the other uses for salt?
A:The largest single use for salt in the U.S. is for de-icing roads. It is also used in pharmaceuticals, and there are numerous refined saline solutions that are used in medicine. It is also used in textiles, papermaking, and many other industries. There are many types of salt besides sodium chloride -- potassium chloride is used for fertilizer, magnesium chloride in metalmaking. Sodium chloride for food has become one of the less-important commercial aspects of the modern salt market.
Q: What is working in a salt mine like? Can people make a decent wage at it? A:
Q: What is working in a salt mine like? Can people make a decent wage at it?
A:To ask about the wages and conditions of salt workers is like asking about farmers -- it depends on the crop and the society. Salt workers in India and sub-Saharan Africa have horrible conditions. In large operations in the U.S., Germany, or France, they have [similar working conditions] as other factory workers in those countries.
Salt mines are not dangerous the way coal mines are. Sea-salt workers, to my thinking, have a more pleasant setting than [workers] in salt mines. The historic sea-salt works of the French Bay of Bourgneuf are mostly operated by individuals organized in cooperatives. While they're not getting wealthy, they enjoy a pleasant, fairly independent agricultural existence. But many of those operations are so small that they [offer] only part-time work.
Q: How much salt does a person actually need, and how much does the average person consume? A:
Q: How much salt does a person actually need, and how much does the average person consume?
A:There is considerable debate about how much salt we need. The body contains about 250 grams, and that level needs to be maintained. People in most societies consume more salt than they need. The excess is stored in the kidneys, which should not be a health problem as long as the kidneys are healthy. Everyone seems to agree that Americans consume more salt than other people and always have. But some people say we consume as little as 10 grams a day per person, while others say it's more than 100 grams a day per person.
Q: What countries are big salt producers now? A:
Q: What countries are big salt producers now?
A:The U.S. is the world's largest salt producer as well as the largest consumer. The U.S. salt industry earns more than $1 billion a year. The second-largest producer is China, then Germany, Canada, and India.
The U.S. and Canada are upstarts, though the U.S. has been an important salt producer for more than 150 years. China has always been a leader, as has India [when it was not] being manipulated by British salt interests. But the fact that France and Britain have fallen to eighth and ninth place is a historic shift, since for many centuries these two countries were leaders. And the Mediterranean, which was a major salt center from ancient times until a few hundred years ago, has considerably faded in its world salt position.
Q: Why do you collect rock salt? A:
Q: Why do you collect rock salt?
A:If you find yourself traveling the world visiting salt mines, what else can you take for souvenirs? I was struck by the fact that although these rocks were, by majority, sodium chloride, which is white, they all looked very different in color and surface.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/7/2014 (1068 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Rays from the slow-falling sun peeked through the twitching leaves and swaying branches of trees, the light dancing on the Keystone Centre grounds.
It was near-perfect weather Friday for opening night of the Brandon Folk, Music and Art Festival, an event now in its 30th year and one with audience loyalty so steadfast, it rivals the ground's trees that still stand even after this month's massive storm.
The slow pace of the sun was emulated by the people who sauntered down to the stage as B.C.'s shayne avec i grec (as in Shayne with a Y), the festival's poet laureate, opened the festival with a nod to Brandon's war on mosquitoes.
"Remember the dragonflies in your malathion dreams," he said with impact, "where humans spray mosquitoes from pickup truck cannons. They always get under your skin, the buzz, buzz, buzzing, mechanically amplified.
"When you get agitated, remember the dragonflies."
The coastal native has been at the festival for seven of the last eight years as an annual Prairie pilgrimage of sorts and the small plot of land here in Brandon has become a second home.
"Especially in the last couple of years, it has really gelled into the perfect hybrid of small festival and a big festival," he said after stepping off stage. "It's cozy, comfortable, warm."
Singer-songwriter Wax Mannequin of Hamilton, Ont., opened the weekend, followed by Toronto-based singer and Winnipeg expat Iskwé.
Friday was rounded out by Amber Suchy, Chez Willi, Ben Figler and headlined by Winnipeg's Federal Lights and New York's Martin Sexton, known for blending styles from soul and gospel to rock, blues and R&B with an ability to improvise, beatboxing and scat singing guitar solos.
The festival is now celebrating its pearl anniversary, but the festival's artistic director, Shandra MacNeill, said she isn't one to count the years too closely.
"Every year that the festival is still around, I consider it an amazing accomplishment of the community to keep it alive," she said. "I'm still really amazed at the loyalty it inspires and the work that it inspires."
The festival "under the trees" does look a bit different this year. Nearly 30 trees — many of them more than a century old — toppled this month alone, leaving holes in the canopy.
"It was quite a shock when we did a tour of the site the day after that happened," MacNeill said, "but the Keystone did such a great job, we didn't have a minute's worry about whether the site would be ready or not."
But some good came from the storm's ravage, she said. More attention was paid to the grounds and as a result, she said it's the best the site has ever looked.
Headlining tonight is Halifax's Ben Caplan, performing with his band the Casual Smokers. Closing out the festival Sunday night will be Canadian singer Cold Specks, returning to this side of the Atlantic after significant success in the U.K.
Both today's and Sunday's afternoon workshop shows start at 12 p.m.
As for Friday evening's perfect weather, it may be fleeting. The forecast for today calls for cloudy skies and a few showers in the morning that are expected to clear by the evening.

While inaugurating the Pakistan Pavilion at the 32nd India International Trade Fair 2012 being held in Pragati Maidan, New Delhi from 14th to 27th November, 2012, he stated that more than 176 stalls have been structured in the fair which is the highest of all time.
He supplemented that the Pakistan's enhanced participation in IITF 2012 is been a welcome step for the trade relations between the two countries. He believed that the IITF has become a platform for the Indo-Pak entrepreneurs to build up the joint venture opportunities in both the countries.
On this auspicious occasion, President of FPCCI Mr. Haji Fazal Kadir Khan Sherani, said that the textile products of Pakistan have always been in big demand, not only in IITF but throughout the world.

England's World Cup began with a tale of woe against Italy, and turned into a nightmare as they were sunk by two Luis Suarez goals on Thursday evening.
Successive defeats to Italy and Uruguay have left the Three Lions in need of a minor miracle if they're to qualify for the last 16, needing a pair of favours from the Azzurri, and then needing a convincing win over Costa Rica themselves.
The disappointing showing from England has heaped pressure on manager Roy Hodgson, the man whose initial 23-man squad had hinted at a brave new world.
Instead, it was old failings that led to England's demise, but Hodgson has declared that he will NOT step down despite the side's failure.
But if the ex-Fulham, Liverpool and West Brom coach does depart, then who are the men to replace him?
Here's a look at the top 10 candidates, according to bookmakers Paddy Power - as unlikely as they are.
Harry Redknapp (6-1)
The man the Football Association didn't want when selecting Fabio Capello's successor in 2012.
Then, they went for Hodgson, and Redknapp's disastrous attempts at keeping QPR in the Premier League the following season won't have done his cause any great help. Did however lead the big-spending R's to promotion, via the play-offs, in 2013-14. Highly critical of the current England squad.
Gary Neville (8-1)
Roy Hodgson's right-hand man - well, aside from Ray Lewington - and Sky Sports super pundit, the ex-Manchester United man has seen his reputation go stratospheric since he left the pitch and stepped into the studio.
Unquestionably intelligent and knowledgable, the 39-year-old would represent a major risk considering he has never been a head coach before. His current occupancy is his first coaching role.
Jose Mourinho (8-1)
The Portuguese has teased that he was close to replacing Steve McClaren in 2007, and while he is joint second in the betting, a move now seems unlikely.
He only returned to Stamford Bridge, where he is lauded as a modern-day messiah, at the start of the 2013-14 season, and has told of how he doesn't expect to make the move into international management for some time yet.
Pep Guardiola (10-1)
The ex-Barcelona boss is one year into his deal at Bayern Munich, and has already picked up four trophies.
However, he's come under considerable scrutiny in Bavaria, with the likes of Franz Beckenbauer and Matthias Sammer questioning Die Roten's performances this term, despite their record-breaking Bundesliga success. Could he be keen on a quick getaway?
Arsene Wenger (14-1)
The Arsenal boss led his side to FA Cup glory last month, having gone nine years without silverware.
Question marks over his tenure at the Emirates Stadium do continue however, although the support from the Gunners board would appear to have never wavered. Recently signed a new three-year deal to remain in north London.
Stuart Pearce (14-1)
Joining three-time Premier League winner Arsene Wenger as a 14-1 shot is the man who once used England keeper David James as a centre-forward in a Premier League fixture.
Since then Pearce has taken charge of England's under-21 side and Team GB at the 2012 Olympics. This summer, he's returning to Nottingham Forest, where he starred as a player.
Alan Pardew (14-1)
The longest serving English manager in the Premier League, the Newcastle boss has had an eventful time at St James' Park.
Took Newcastle to 5th and 9th place finishes in the last three years - as well as a Europa League quarter-final - but still hasn't adhered himself to the Geordie faithful. Incidents like his attempted headbutt on David Meyler haven't adhered him to the Football Association either.
Brendan Rodgers (20-1)
Two years at Swansea City and two years at Liverpool have seen the Northern Irishman's reputation flourish.
Took the Reds to second place in the Premier League with a brand of vibrant, attacking football last season, bringing through the likes of Raheem Sterling and Jon Flanagan at Anfield. Faces a Champions League challenge next term.
David Moyes (20-1)
After 11 years of stability at Everton, the Scot endured a miserable 2013-14 at Manchester United.
Sacked in April, he's stayed relatively quiet over his future, and though he has spoken of an interest in managing in the Bundesliga, he's expected to return to the British Isles sooner, rather than later.
David Beckham (20-1)
England's most-capped outfield player, darling of the nation and all-round man of the people.
But does that make him potentially the leader of the Three Lions?

Utica Property Auction Nets $465,000
The City of Utica's latest property auction generated $465,000 in revenue.
15 properties were sold.
Two of the properties were vacant lots and the rest were homes.
Mayor Robert Palmieri says selling of the properties not only brings in revenue for the city, but also puts property back on the tax rolls.
The auction puts over $747,000 in assessed property value back on the tax rolls, providing an over $1 million positive impact for the city.
All of the money generated from the auction will go to the city's general fund.

The scheme was introduced in 1988 as an alternative mechanism for the Commonwealth Government to fund health services outside the Medicare arrangements. The Scheme provides a contribution towards the capital cost of eligible radiation therapy equipment. Payments are in addition to Medicare rebates that patients receive for radiotherapy services, as Medicare benefits are for the professional and operating costs of services and do not include funding for the cost of equipment used in providing these services.
The ROHPG Scheme is established and administered under Part IV of the Health Insurance Act 1973 and is open to public and private providers who are recognised as an 'approved health service' (at a specific location) under the Act.
- eligibility of equipment
- area of need and affordability of services
- financial viability
- integration with multidisciplinary and patient-centred care
- staffing and
- implementation of the project including whether it is well developed, well-resourced and implemented within a reasonable timeframe.
A review of the ROHPG has been completed. Further information can be obtained on the 2016 Review of the Radiation Oncology Health Program Grants (ROHPG) Scheme web page.
In line with the recommendations of the review report, the Government has announced in MYEFO 2016 that it will achieve efficiencies of $18.7 million over four years from 1 July 2017 by linking funding towards high-cost linear accelerators (linacs) and directing these funds to areas of need as agreed to by states and territories. This will keep the Commonwealth capital contribution for radiation oncology sustainable into the future.
Further information about the changes to the ROHPG Scheme and transition arrangements can be obtained on the MYEFO – Radiation Oncology Health Program Grants (ROHPG) Scheme webpage.

1. FC Nuremberg are preparing for the DFB Cup quarter-finals against FC Schalke 04. It's something of a friendly match as the fans of both clubs have enjoyed good relations for many years. The common tradition of being the once best German club created this kinship: the "Club" achieved nine German titles, FC Schalke seven. Now the clubs will meet again on Tuesday (January 25), but for the players the friendship will play no part for at least 90 minutes. Qualification for the semi-finals of the DFB Cup is at stake.
Nuremberg reached this stage when they took advantage of a postponed match to defeat Kickers Offenbach 2-0 away. Offenbach are presently top team in the third division and previously caused a sensation by eliminating Bundesliga leaders Borussia Dortmund. In the second postponed match a first division club also beat third division opposition: 1. FC Kaiserslautern won the Rhineland-Palatine derby 4-1 at TuS Koblenz after being 1-0 down. Kaiserslautern now face a difficult match away against second division club MSV Duisburg on Wednesday (January 26). Duisburg defeated 1. FC Cologne in the round of 16
Consequently only first and second division clubs will meet in the quarter-finals.
A sell-out crowd of 24,000 filled the stadium at Bieberer Berg which will soon be pulled down and replaced by a new arena. Belgian international Timmy Simons was Nuremberg's best player, scoring both goals (20th and 67th minute). Offenbach keeper Robert Wulnikowski performed excellently, keeping the match on an even keel for a long time with many great saves. The estimated 4,000 Nuremberg supporters repeated their song from the 2007 DFB Cup triumph. However, the team coached by Dieter Hecking will meet another Cup specialist at Schalke.

Kaiserslautern's Lakic put paid to Koblenz with three goals
Four goals within just eleven minutes catapulted Kaiserlautern into the next round. At first Koblenz, who had previously defeated second division clubs Fortuna Dusseldorf and Hertha BSC Berlin, dominated the match watched by a sell-out crowd of 15,000 spectators at Stadium Oberwerth in Koblenz. Thomas Klasen gave the hosts, who had been relegated from the second division last summer, the lead in the 17th minute. TuS supporters were hoping for another Cup sensation in Koblenz, when goalkeeper Dieter Paucken saved a penalty from Srdjan Lakic in the 37th minute. But the Berlin-born Croat performed better in the second half.

The FCK striker, who had been sent off in the Bundesliga match against Cologne three days earlier, scored three goals (54th, 59th, 65th). Adam Nemec (64th) added the fourth. Koblenz were beaten, Kaiserslautern through.
The quarter-finals will begin with the match Schalke against Nuremberg on Tuesday at 20:30 hrs CET and broadcast live by the TV channels ZDF and SKY. ARD and SKY will show the quarter-final between Alemannia Aachen and FC Bayern Munich live on Wednesday from 20:30 hrs. In a further match between teams from the first and second Bundesliga, Energie Cottbus will play host to TSG Hoffenheim 1899 on Wednesday. At the same time MSV Duisburg will meet Kaiserslautern. Both matches will kick off at 19:00 hrs and broadcast live on SKY. The two semi-finals are scheduled for March 1 and 2.

EPA grants aim to clean up shoreline cities
(Lakewood) - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency today announced the award of four Great Lakes Restoration Initiative grants totaling more than $1.3 million in northern Ohio to fund green infrastructure projects to improve water quality in Lake Erie.
Cameron Davis, Senior Advisor to the EPA Administrator, was joined at Lakewood Park to announce the projects by Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur, Lakewood Mayor Michael Summers, Lorain Mayor Chase Ritenauer, Toledo Environmental Services Commissioner Tim Murphy, and Cleveland Sustainability Chief Jenita McGowan.
"The economies of our coastal communities depend on the health of Lake Erie," Davis told Newsradio WTAM 1100. "The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative projects we're announcing today will help, piece by piece, to reduce harmful algae, make our coasts more resilient in the face of climate change and save money."
Marcy Kaptur & Cameron Davis
Kaptur explained to WTAM, "The Great Lakes are crucial to our region's economic future and the GLRI has been the largest investment in the Great Lakes in two decades. Tens of millions of people rely on the water resource of the Great Lakes and the economic benefits of restoring our Great Lakes are unending."
Mike Summers
The city of Lakewood is receiving $93,000 grant, and will match that to bring the total to $200,000 on projects to reduce rain water runoff and flooding. Mayor Summers told Newsradio WTAM 1100, "We understand that Lake Erie starts at our roof tops, sidewalks, and streets and that water eventually makes it to the lake. We need to do a better job in managing that runoff and this project allows us to do that in a highly visible way to educate our citizens of the job ahead."
The city of Lorain will use the $500,000 grant to improve storm water management at the city's Lakeview Park. Mayor Ritenauer told WTAM, the improvements will reduce the amount of bacteria in storm water being directly discharged to Lake Erie and will reduce the frequency of bacteria-related beach closures.
Chase Ritenauer
Ritenauer says even greater investments are needed to improve the environmental quality of Lake Erie and to protect it from predators like Asian Carp. He contends environmental clean-up creates new jobs, and attracts economic development to the region.
The city of Toledo received a $250,000 grant. The city of Cleveland will use its $500,000 award to install green infrastructure to absorb rainfall that will reduce the discharge of untreated storm water near the city's West Side Market to Lake Erie.
Lakewood, Lorain, Toledo, and Cleveland, are among 16 cities to receive funding in the initial round of EPA's new GLRI Shoreline Cities grant program.

Having a toenail or fingernail become loose can be a troubling symptom, especially because the cause is not always obvious. In most cases, the process of a nail separating from the underlying nail bed is gradual and only part of the nail is affected. However, in cases of trauma to a finger or toe, the entire nail can come loose rather quickly.

Nail Anatomy

The nail, also called the nail plate, is tightly bound to the underlying nail bed, which is the skin-colored area under the nail plate. The white half-moon shape at the base of the nail is known as the lunula. The lunula marks the area where the nail's matrix begins. The nail matrix is where the growth of the nail occurs. Any damage to the nail matrix, whether it's trauma or infection, can cause a nail to separate from the nail bed and become loose.

Common Causes of Nail Loosening

The most common causes of nail loosening, known medically as onycholysis, are infection and trauma.

Fungal Infection and Loose Nails

The most common type of infection is caused by a nail fungus and is known as onychomycosis. Onychomycosis is a common toenail infection but can also occur in fingernails, especially in people who work in occupations where their hands are overly exposed to water.

Onychomycosis is slow-growing and can affect the nail in different ways, but the most common features are: nail thickening, nail discoloration, debris under the nail, and nail loosening. The area where the nail comes loose will often have a white appearance where it has separated from the underlying nail bed. Some fungal and bacterial nail infections produce a dark brown or greenish discoloration and may also cause nail loosening.

Trauma and Loose Nails

The other common cause of nail loosening is trauma. One common scenario is an object dropped on the tip of the toe or finger. Sometimes blunt-force trauma to a nail causes excessive bleeding beneath the nail that causes enough pressure to loosen the nail -- in some cases causing complete loss of the nail shortly after. Because the bone at the tip of the toe or finger, known as the distal phalanx, is very close in proximity to the nail, blunt toe or finger trauma can sometimes cause a bone fracture. It is best to seek medical care for nail trauma, especially if there is bleeding beneath the nail.

Shoewear and Loose Toenails

Another common scenario that causes a toenail to come loose is repeated trauma from shoe wear. This is often associated with running, extended periods of walking or hiking, or any endurance sport and is sometimes referred to as black toenail. In any case of trauma to a nail, the blood that builds up beneath the nail causes a red, purple, or black discoloration and is known as subungual hematoma. Repeated long-term rubbing of the toe against the tip of the shoe may result in the nail edge coming loose without any bleeding beneath the nail.

Other Causes of A Loose Nail

Allergic reaction to manicure/pedicure products

Psoriasis

Photosensitizing reaction to a medication

Hyperthyroidism

Anemia

Treating a Loose Nail

Seeing a podiatrist, dermatologist, or other medical provider for a loose toenail may involve diagnostic testing where appropriate, such as laboratory testing. The most common cause of a loose toenail is onychomycosis and treatment may entail debriding, or cutting away loose portions of the nail, and possibly anti-fungal medications.

Bacterial infections are usually more severe and progress more quickly than fungal infections. Regardless of the cause of nail loosening, it's best to seek medical care to decrease the chance of complications related to a bacterial infection.

Will the Nail Grow Back?

A common question people have when they lose a nail, or part of it, is: "Will the new nail grow back normal?" Any time the nail's matrix (growth center) is injured, whether it's by trauma or inflammation due to infection, permanent changes to nail growth usually occur. The changes can be as subtle as a bumpy texture or thickening of the nail.

Monday night on RAW, fans got to see Ric Flair throw chops at Big E. Langston, strut a lot and even drop elbows to the ring following The Miz's victory on the show.
With that being said, do not expect Flair to get more physically involved in the WWE product. The company is still concerned about Flair's health following the blood clot he suffered last month in Japan.
This site talks about wwe quite often, even more then tna at times. Besides that, I think flair should leave wrestling only at his age. You to Hogan just mainly for your guys health
hopefully no more in ring flair, in his hayday he was the king of d*cks
as long as they don't wrestle they should be fine

Basement laundry room
Couple questions. I have the paneling off in my basement near the laundry area so I want to move the washing machine outlet that is way behind it and out of reach.
1) Does a laundry circuit need gfci protection? I have no sink in the laundry room. Is there any reason NOT to GFCI-protect it (assuming it is not required in the first place)?
2) Where should the washing maching outlet be located? The washing machine drains about 6 feet up in the air to a drain pipe behind the washer. The laundry supply valves are just below this drain. Any height or other requirement from this outlet placement? Common sense tells me to move it away from the supply and drain lines.
3) Can I put a junction box on a basement rim joist?
No gfci required.
I put them above the top of the washer, trying to hit the center.
Yes on the jbox, as long as it remains accessible.
Does behind paneling count as accessible? The paneling is on a framed wall about a foot and a half from the foundation. Also, the paneling can be removed pretty easily. The paneling ends about 3 feet to the left of the junciton (so you can reach or shimmy in behind it).
No that would not be considered accesible, if you have to remove finished walls to get to it, its not accesible.
But you also indicated this laundry room is in the basement. Basements require GFCI protected outlets.
On a personal note, the washing machine is a water related device itself. As such, I personally like the idea of the outlet for the washing machine to be GFCI protected.
I misunderstood, i though you would have to take off the paneling to get to the junction box.
In your case it probably would be fine, the only issue would be any future home owners who have to find that junction box.
GFCI's are required in unfinished basements.
Actually, this will be in the unfinished portion of the basement, so I will do GFCI.
"Where a portion of the basement is finished into one or more habitable rooms...".
However, NEC does fairly consistantly use the words "unfinished basement" to make it clear that a requirement for a basement doesn't apply to "habitable space" that just so happens to be located in a basement.

After fighting with my sewing machine on and off, I finally caved and bought a new machine.
I can't even begin to say the world of difference it's made. I suddenly understand why sewing is fun.
It's amazing how much difference the right tools can make — and how much unwillingness there can be to get them.
I tend to do the same; when I'm looking at a new hobby, I tend to buy the cheapest tools I can. The old sewing machine off of Craigslist. Cheap plastic needles. An inexpensive spindle.
The logic goes something like this: I don't know if I'll like this, I can upgrade later, if I buy the cheap tools I can get more options, etc. Only it's frustrating — things don't necessarily work, I hit snags and bumps, I don't enjoy the process. I fight the tools instead of learning what I need to, and then I worry about upgrading because what if I don't actually like this hobby? Besides, the cheap stuff still works (albeit not well) so it's wasteful…
Now, I'm not saying all inexpensive tools are bad, or that you should buy something you can't afford. But there are ways to find quality tools, from searching for bargains to borrowing something for a tryout (while you decide if you want to invest) to getting a knowledgeable friend to help so you aren't just randomly buying something with the hopes it doesn't suck.
Because tools make a difference. In the way you work, in the end result, in the enjoyment of the process. It's so easy to fall into the mass consumption mindset — ten pairs of cheap needles are better than two pairs of good needles! — but it's not always for the best. Crafting has helped me step back and learn to appreciate that. To consider quality over quantity, and take pride in turning out something that's the best I can make. (Which as a beginner, may not be all that fantastic. But I'll get better.) Good tools and materials make that easier…and more fun.

Showing that ArcSinh[2]/ArcCsch[2] is 3?
I hope I've just overlooked something very simple.
I want to transform ArcSinh[2]/ArcCsch[2] to 3, using just "knowledge"
already implemented in Mathematica. I tried FullSimplify first, and it
doesn't help. I tried several other things. For example,
TrigToExp[ArcSinh[2]/ArcCsch[2]] yields
Log[2 + Sqrt[5]]/Log[1/2 + Sqrt[5]/2].
But then how should we transform that to 3?
