April is Safe Digging Month in Florida.
"Throughout the month," explains Cheryl Ritter, Sunshine 811 damage prevention manager, "we're running the 811 Promise campaign to make Florida's residents aware of the requirement to call 811 before digging – even for smaller projects like landscaping or installing a fence or mailbox."
Calling 811 gets underground utilities in your yard located and marked with paint and flags.
The consequences of not calling can be inconvenient, like no‐cable‐tv‐for‐the‐weekend inconvenient. But if you cut into a line carrying phone service to your neighborhood, the neighbor up the street won't be able to reach 911 when he begins having chest pains.
Making the 811 Promise and then carrying through with it every time you dig will keep you and your neighbors safe.
"Making the 811 Promise doesn't cost you a dime," Ritter said, "but it does give you peace of mind when you're working outside."
To make the promise, visit sunshine811.com and click on the 811 Promise button. Then, share the 811 Promise with your friends and family through Facebook, Twitter or email using the share tools at the top of the page.
"The more people who make the 811 Promise," Ritter concluded, "the more we can realize our mission: to make Florida the safest place to dig."
Sunshine 811 is a statewide organization that raises awareness and educates Florida's communities on the legal requirement to call 811 before digging. Its goal is to eliminate digging damages to underground utilities through a series of five steps that begin with "Call 811 Before You Dig." Visit sunshine811.com for more information on the five steps.

David Ferrer complained about the giant television screens in Arthur Ashe Stadium, saying they were a distraction and made it "impossible to focus". TV executives probably wished they could have done a deal with the Spaniard: we'll turn off your screens if you get off ours.
Having lost Maria Sharapova, the biggest name in the women's game, as early as last Saturday, the US Open suffered a double whammy here on Tuesday night. Television had been drooling over the possibility of a Williams sisters semi-final, only for Serena to suffer a crushing third successive Grand Slam quarter-final defeat to Justine Henin.
Even worse was to follow as Ferrer's victory over Rafael Nadal in the last match of the day dashed hopes of a third successive major final between the world No 2 and the best player on the planet, Roger Federer. Ferrer has a superb return of serve, crunching forehands and lightning feet, but he would almost certainly have been on his way to JFK Airport, without an autograph-hunter in sight, if his fellow Spaniard had been any-where near his peak.
Nadal needed treatment for a finger problem and the strapping he wore on both knees was evidence of the tendinitis that has been troubling him ever since he dropped a set to Alun Jones, an Australian wild card, in the first round. After his 6-7, 6-4, 7-6, 6-2 defeat Nadal refused to talk about his physical problems, saying he did not want to make excuses and preferred to give credit to 25-year-old Ferrer, "one of the best players in the world right now".
What Ferrer may lack in charisma he makes up for in dogged determination and Nadal was gradually worn down by the world No 15's tireless retrieving and punishing forehands – a case of the biter bit if ever there was one – during a match that lasted nearly three and a half hours and finished at 1.50am.
Comparisons with last year, when Nadal did not win a tournament for nine months after taking his second French Open title, are inevitable. Although he won a clay-court event in Stuttgart immediately after Wimbledon two months ago, he has since lost to Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals in Montreal, retired during his first match in Cincinnati and now made his earliest exit from a Grand Slam tournament since losing in the third round here two years ago.
He is a wonderful athlete, but the way Nadal plays puts enormous stress on his body. While he has proved that he has the game to win on hard courts, they provide a far less forgiving surface than clay or grass and he may have to find a more economical way of winning points if he is to make as effective a challenge for Grand Slam honours here and in Melbourne as he has at Roland Garros and Wimbledon.
While Nadal was philosophical in defeat – "It's disappointing for me but that's tennis," he said, "I'm having a good season" – Williams was left all but speechless by Henin's 7-6, 6-1 victory. The first questioner at her post-match press conference asked if she could explain what had gone wrong. "No, I can't," Williams replied.
Henin swept Williams away at the French Open and although the world No 1 was taken to three sets at Wimbledon, when the American was carrying injuries suffered in the previous round, this was another emphatic victory. Having failed to capitalise on an early break, Henin saved a set point at 5-6 before winning the tie-break 7-3. The Belgian had played a cautious game in the first set, but she came out shooting from the hip in the second and Williams had no answer to a fusillade of attacking ground strokes.
Two Russians, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Anna Chakvetadze, will contest the semi-final in the bottom half of the draw. In yesterday's quarter-finals Kuznetsova, the No 4 seed and 2004 champion here, beat Hungary's Agnes Szavay 6-1, 6-4, while Chakvetadze, the No 6 seed, reached the last four of a Grand Slam event for the first time by beating Israel's Shahar Peer 6-4, 6-1.
The first player into the last four of the men's singles was Russia's Nikolay Davydenko, who beat Tommy Haas at the quarter-final stage for the second year in succession. Despite being broken in the second game of the match, Davydenko won 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 with a controlled display of baseline aggression to set up a semi-final against Roger Federer or Andy Roddick.Reuse content

'Boy in a Dress' is a terrific amalgamation of three earlier memoir shows by 'transdrogynous' performer La JohnJoseph, engaging with gender and its discontents, a precarious spell in downtown New York and an exuberantly unstable Liverpool Catholic childhood.
Developed with director Sarah Chew and performed with Jordan Hunt and Anna Lewenhaupt, this piece mixes scripted direct address, live song, dance and movement and several nice coups de théâtre, including a gorgeously obscene use of blacklight, a Virgin Mary en travesti and a striptease set to Doris Day's 'Teacher's Pet'.
If the form is dispersed, the effect is cohesive, thanks to La JohnJoseph's wry charisma and intellectually robust sensibility, in which radical sexual politics blends with drag heritage and pop culture: Bataille meets Bloolips with a dash of Benny Hill.
The set is a compelling mess of skyline, closet and crates; the costumes an evocative mixture of schoolboy chic and paper ballgowns; the singing rich and moving; the script witty and perverse ('Eros and Thanatos were 69ing in my subconscious').
'Boy in a Dress' has a sharp eye for the social, sexual, religious and political absurdities that surround us, as well as their hidden rhymes and echoes; what elevates it is their humane connection to a personality unafraid to fail or aspire.
La JohnJoseph asserts: 'I made of myself an ornament without a heartbeat,' which thankfully can't be true, and: 'My whole life I felt like a rarity,' which thankfully is.

Romanian cinema triumphs again with top Berlin award
By Mike Collett-White
BERLIN (Reuters) - Romania claimed another major scalp on the European film festival circuit this weekend when "Child's Pose" won the Golden Bear in Berlin, underlining the country's emergence as a powerhouse of hard-hitting cinema in the post-Communist era.
The film, directed by Calin Peter Netzer, tells the story of Cornelia, an obsessive mother who uses every trick in the book to prevent her son from going to jail after he kills a boy in a car accident.
It is the latest in a long list of critical hits that have enjoyed startling success at festivals like Berlin and Cannes in recent years, helping to bring Romania's cinema to a wider audience.
Some of Romania's top directors, who have enjoyed the artistic freedom that flourished after the death of Communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu in 1989, dismiss talk of a cinematic "new wave", saying it lumps together very different styles and stories.
But ever since Cristi Puiu's "The Death of Mr. Lazarescu" hit Cannes in 2005, and two years later his compatriot Cristian Mungiu won the coveted Palme d'Or there for the harrowing abortion drama "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days", Romanian cinema has been firmly on the map.
"It is an acknowledgement, I think, that Romanian cinema is still producing good quality cinema and has been for a few years and it is a good endowment that it is still like this," Netzer told Reuters after receiving the Golden Bear for best film.
While each film differs, there is a common thread of unflinching storytelling and compelling human drama often laid out against the backdrop of a cold and uncaring society. Continued...

Adding a heat source
I am in the process of adding an additional heat source, an outdoor wood furnace. My current system is a dual fuel heat pump, with a two zone system. I want to have the option to have the heat pump or the gas heat to come on automatically if the outdoor furnace were not to be fired or the fire were to go out. My other issue is I want to ensure the zoning remains in play when using the wood furnace. Has anyone done this or have ideas on how?
if the outdoor furnace were not to be fired or the fire were to go out.
how does the logic circuitry know if the furnace were not to be fired?
My other issue is I want to ensure the zoning remains in play when using the wood furnace.
Are wood furnaces adaptable to zoning?
So, one input to the logic block is a flame sensor for the wood stove, another is the temp. of at least one room.
The outputs are DC signals? Switch contact closures?
Does the logic block need to store a program?
You want battery back-up?
Homebuilt logic will be $10 to $20 in parts and require some electronics know-how to assemble and test.
Commercially built logic will be much more bucks and will take some Internet searching and you still may need custom, but very simple, interfacing circuits.
And there is possibly a compromising of personal safety if this circuitry malfunctions. Above all it must not defeat the built-in safety equip. and sensors of your existing HVAC equip.
Thanks for the reply, let me clarify.
No logic circuit is needed to detect flame. I want to have the existing dual fuel system to be the back up and to only come on if the temp gets too low in the house(thus the fire in the stove must not be able to keep up or has gone out).
The zoning portion is the house currently has two zones, they are controlled by duct zone valves I want to still have them operate as now but also with the new heat also.
I know I can accomplish the first issue by adding an additional thermostat but I worry I will not be able to control the temp in both zones.
So if the wood furnace can't keep up, as detected by a sensor or 'stat either at the wood furnace or in the house, a relay drops out and switches in your dual fuel backup system.
This part is easy.
Is it that you need the zone control 'stats to also work with your wood furnace? If so, post a schematic of the control circuitry of your dual fuel system.

Daringly plotless and disconnected ("just like my life!" squeals the target audience), Noah Baumbach's latest, a breeze, feels a lot less self-absorbed than usual, mainly for not having a neurotic at its core. Greta Gerwig, as the title's 27-year-old Brooklynite—a modern dancer whose overall flexibility is tested when her best friend (Mickey Sumner) moves out—is animated by childlike impulses. She flounces around the streets and seems to handle her stress fairly well; the actor's quirk doesn't strangle you with cuteness because Gerwig (also a cowriter) never allows her character to become an obnoxious emblem for anything. Frances is a good listener, even when people disappoint her.
Still, the filmmaking isn't wholly comfortable with itself. Baumbach is taking a leap here into something freer, but his shooting style—in undistinguished b&w—feels like part of an old affectation he couldn't drop (yes, we all know you dig Manhattan). His empathy for Gerwig is real, not cynical, and she's no fantasy dream girl. Yet some of the director's usual acuity has been sacrificed for looseness and, for all of Gerwig's energy, there's not much forward momentum here, apart from a series of transitional apartments. (Their addresses are noted onscreen.) The best sequence of the movie is Baumbach's cleverest to date: an unsatisfying solo excursion in Paris, a place of inflexible shopkeepers and zero romance, set to the forcibly funky "Every 1's a Winner." In these moments, we love Gerwig's loser terribly.

I would encourage each of you to consider an Alzheimer's disease clinical trial. You might be surprised by the benefits.....
By Bob DeMarco
A recent study indicates that patients suffering from dementia and participating in a clinical trial for an experimental drug stay out of nursing homes longer than patients receiving standard care.
This phenomena occurs even when the experimental drugs don't work.
A possible explanation could be that study participants benefit substantially from the frequent, high-quality medical attention they receive as part of the clinical trial.
As some of you know my mother, Dorothy, is currently enrolled in a Dimebon clinical trial. I was really impressed by all the pre-clinical trial medical testing she received. We are also receiving lots of medical attention while enrolled in the Dimebon clinical trial. The doctors and staff at Brain Matters Research in Delray Beach are very professional.
Free medical testing is one of the biggest benefits you can receive from an Alzheimer's clinical trial.
Medical pretesting is a requirement to gain entry into a clinical trial. You actually experience a sense of relief after the testing is completed. I did. At least I knew there was nothing new and different that was being missed. It is also like getting a second opinion free of any charges.
I would encourage each of you to consider an Alzheimer's disease clinical trial. You might be surprised by the benefits.

Second in a two-part series on suicide and the Church's response.
ROGERS — It knows no age limitations or socioeconomic biases. It does not discriminate in race or gender. Suicide speaks all languages. So knowing the words to address and prevent this issue can be complicated.
As parishes, youth ministers and parents are confronted with this complex topic, the first barrier is just learning to talk about it.
"We have created a cultural environment that in conversation if someone asks you if you are fine, we feel we must say we are fine," said Dawn Spragg, licensed professional counselor and director of therapeutic services with the Teen Action and Support Center in Rogers. "We need to have the courage to say we are not fine and help young people have the courage as well."
Spragg, who worked as a youth minister for 18 years, only works with teens. She does many assessments for teens at risk of suicide and said adults and peer ministers need to understand one important fact about dealing with young adults.
"You cannot blow it off if a teen tells you about something that is bothering them," she said. "You have to validate the depth of their hurt, otherwise they begin to feel that people don't understand. Sometimes they can get stuck there."
Liz Tingquist, director of youth and campus ministries for the Diocese of Little Rock, believes there should be a call for boldness in youth ministers and adults.
"We cannot shy away from this discussion. We have to be bold in speaking about it, be bold in contacting parents, be bold in being Christ to other people and be bold in being proactive on this topic," Tingquist said. "We want to help kids experience what the love of God is by being Jesus in their lives."
Despite the stigma still surrounding the conversation of suicide, educators, counselors and youth ministers see it as the one-eyed monster it is. But mental health issues, bullying, social media and addictions all have to be a part of the conversation when discussing this issue.
But how?
When a tragedy occurs, the family contacts their parish almost immediately. But the reality is that a young adult may only spend two hours of their week at church activities while the majority of their hours are spent at school.
Beyond the consoling of the family, prayer vigils and funeral arrangements, pastors are often charged with the additional task of responding not just to the family, but also to the parish at large.
In February, four different suicides plagued three parishes in northwest Arkansas. Each parish responded to the tragedies in their own way.
Following the suicides of two young girls, ages 12 and 14, Father John Connell, pastor at St. Raphael Church in Springdale, addressed the young people about the Church's teaching on suicide and challenged them to love and respect one another even in their differences.
But the parish priests took it a step further and reached out to the community.
"We had a meeting with the superintendent of Springdale schools, principals, a few middle school administrative personnel, resource officers and counselors, plus my formation staff to begin the dialogue of how we can work together in dealing with a multitude of issues that our young people are dealing with, including suicide, the dangers of social media and gang violence," Father Connell said. "We shared our concerns about the best way to reach the parents of our children so as to be aware of their children's struggles and we made a promise to keep communications open and to share resources."
Father Connell, pastor of the largest Catholic church in the state, said he also met with his formation team separately to begin looking at how to reach the 1,800 children enrolled in religious educations classes, parents and organizations about many character issues in fall programs.
Father Jason Tyler, who has been pastor at St. Joseph Church in Fayetteville since December, believes listening and being present to teens and young adults is important.
"Perhaps a good question for any parent to ask," added Fr. Tyler is, "'How do my children know I care about them and want what is best for them?' Ask that question from the children's point of view so that it's not simply 'How do I show my love for them?' but rather 'How do they know?'" he emphasized.
Another impediment to reaching teens at risk can often be the church itself.
"Often I hear young adults say they are afraid to mention how they are feeling at church because they feel they should be perfect," Spragg said.
Part of the fear in addressing the issue, said Judene Kuszak, is that if suicide is talked about, it becomes real.
"Some parents are not comfortable talking about this," said Kuszak, director of religious education at St. Vincent de Paul Church in Rogers. "There is still a stigma attached and some feel it could happen to their children if they talk about it."
Ultimately, parents listening to their children, asking questions and recognizing when their child is at risk is the first line of defense for battling the issues young adults face.
"All of us have to reach out and be aware of what is going on around us," Father Connell said, "in our families, classrooms and circle of friends. The best way to help families going forward is to be knowledgeable, be aware of what is going on and to not be afraid to inform those in authority when you hear or see something. Maybe our actions and words going forward can prevent another suicide or act of violence."

Hillary Clinton Hasn't Driven a Car Since 1996
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is admitting that she hasn't driven a car since 1996.
She made the comment in a speech at the National Automobile Dealers Association in New Orleans.
"I remember it very well, and unfortunately so does the Secret Service, which is why I haven't driven since then," Clinton said.
1996 was the third year of the first term of Bill Clinton's presidency.
It wasn't all jokes for Hillary Clinton at the auto dealers conference.
She remarked that her biggest regret from her time as Secretary of State was the militant attack in Benghazi that killed four Americans, including ambassador Christopher Stevens.
She also dodged questions on whether she'd run for president in 2016.

Biotech Watchlist Update: Small-Cap Biotechs Struggle to Rebound

When the biotechnology market hit a speed bump in early 2014, every stock in the sector was jolted. Large-cap biotech and big pharma have largely recovered, but small- and micro-cap companies haven't yet entirely recouped the losses.

Del Piero Rejected Liverpool Because Of Heysel, Former Agent Claims
After signing a two-year deal with Sydney FC, Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero reveals that he received a proposal from Liverpool.
However, his former agent Claudio Pasqualin believes Del Piero turned the proposal down due to Heysel tragedy which caused 39 deaths back in 1985 European Cup Final.
"I think as a real Juventino, out of respect and remembrance for the massacre at Heysel, he said no to Liverpool," Claudio Pasqualin revealed to TuttoMercatoWeb.
Pasqualin also believes that Del Piero's move to Australian League is a fantastic challenge for him as well as a step-up in quality for Australia.
"I think Sydney is a fantastic opportunity for him.
"Alessandro will return in his way to being a protagonist after the crucial contribution he gave to Juventus over all these years.
"He can promote Australian football throughout the world and I'm certain he'll be very happy there. In fact, Australians could find nobody better than Del Piero to let them make that step up in quality.
"When he returns to Italy, he'll be able to do whatever he wants. I'd see him making a good director, but he could also be a great President of the FIGC one day or a Coach at the Juventus academy."

Thread: A Month of Angels
A Month of Angels
I got to thinking about my original post about angel crafts and decided to make angels during the month of December. I have not set goals or quotas for the number or type of angels. My purpose for doing this is to have a relaxing activity that will help me center and reflect on the spiritual significance of the season.
I will post photos of projects on my website as soon as they are finished. I plan to make quite a few and thought it would be easier to have them on my website than trying to post them all individually here.
Anyone want to join me in creating a month of angels?
Doesn't anyone want to join me in making a month of angel crafts?
You get to choose your own projects and how many projects you do. You don't have to make something everyday. You can even choose easy projects. I started out with a paper angel chain -- can't get much easier than that. I also cheated a bit by sneaking in a project I had already started - but I did finish it in December.
This would be a good thing to get the kids involved in.
Come on, I'm going to need encouragement to keep going as the month progresses.12-07-2007, 09:58 AM #3

Angel Update
Today is Dec. 15 -- I'm going to say I'm halfway through the month.
So far I have 16 angel project on my website, 1 more completed and 1 more in the works. I have filled one page on my website and when I add more will have to start another page.
These are some general ideas I have for projects I would like to make before the month is over.
A pop bottle angel -- have the bottle, don't havestyrofoam ball for the head.
Something beaded
Something to wear in my long hair
A doll
Something wearable -- scarf, vest, jacket, sweatshirt...
A tote bag
An original project -- something a little more abstract
Some of these will be larger projects so I may not continue to average one project a day -- but that's okay I really haven't set any quotas.
I have loved making angels -- may not stop in January. I'm not sure yet.12-18-2007, 09:51 AM #11
I know I've still got two weeks left in December, but I'm going to start winding down the month of angels projects. Had problems with my website, so had to do some rearranging to keep this down to one page. There's still room for more projects and I will make angels when I can between now and the 1st. But I've had a lot of problems with geocities over the years and will be closing the personal website shortly after January 1. I will keep my professional art site going at bravehost, but won't have a personal site anymore.
I've made it through the worst of the holiday season and work beckons. Received a notice of an art show with a short entry deadline and I don't think I have anything ready to go... so it's back to work.
I am going to continue the angels when I need inspiration or busy work between art projects.
I still have one angel in the works and 4 or 5 ideas so a few more photos will be popping up before the end of the year.12-22-2007, 04:52 PM #12
I actually got three angels finished this week -- a totebag and a couple of "cheater projects" a pin and a table runner. Okay so I had a couple of angel motif fabrics on hand.
Some of my angels are starting to fly away to watch over other people so I guess I need to keep making them so we are always surrounded by angels.12-26-2007, 04:09 PM #13
I went ahead and took the angels off the website today. I know I said the
1st, but there hasn't really been much interest and I needed to go ahead and get most of that stuff off the site to get ready to close it down.

Sept. 10, 2013
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan softball team announced its fall ball schedule today (Tuesday, Sept. 10) featuring a five-game tilt in Traverse City and two exhibitions at nearby Eastern Michigan University. The Wolverines will play all of their fall contests on the road due to the renovations at the Donald R. Shepherd Softball Center and the installation of synthetic turf at Alumni Field.
Head coach Carol Hutchins will once again take her squad north to take part in the Traverse City Collegiate Softball Tournament held at Traverse City West high school on Sep. 28-29. The Maize and Blue will play a trio of five inning contests on Sep. 28 beginning with Central Michigan at 10:30 a.m., followed by Western Michigan at noon and then Oakland at 2 p.m. The tournament concludes the following day with a pair of seven inning games.
Michigan will make the short trip to Eastern Michigan twice this fall, taking on the Eagles on Thursday, Oct.3, and again on Tuesday, Oct. 8. The two matchups will feature a familiar face on the Eastern bench. Former U-M All-American Melissa Gentile took over the Eagles' program this summer.
The Shepherd Softball Center is being completely rebuilt this offseason, with a three-story, 10,200-square-foot structure taking the place of the previous one-story building. The space will contain two new team meeting areas, enhanced training capabilities including hydrotherapy, improved locker room space and an instillation of coaches' offices. A roof terrace will provide unparalleled views of Alumni Field and the entire Wilpon Complex.
Alumni Field is receiving several upgrades as well. A new state-of-the art video scoreboard is going up in left field. The outfield grass will be replaced with synthetic turf which will provide the team with a more consistent field and better drainage. This upgrade will allow Michigan to use the field earlier in its competitive season.
The Wolverines are coming off their 10th appearance in the Women's College World Series and a Big Ten record sixth consecutive conference crown. Seventeen players return from last season including Big Ten Player of the Year and All-American sophomore Sierra Romero (Murrieta, Calif./Vista Murrieta) along with first team All-Big Ten selections senior Caitlin Blanchard (Petersburg, Mich./Summerville), junior Sara Driesenga (Hudsonville, Mich./Hudsonville), junior Lauren Sweet (Corona, Calif./Santiago) and sophomore Sierra Lawrence (Norcross, Ga./Greater Atlanta Christian).
The fall schedule will also give fans their first opportunities to see U-M's four freshmen: Megan Betsa (McDonough, Ga./Union Grove), Kelly Christner (Tinley Park, Ill./Victor J. Andrew), Lindsey Montemarano (Seaford, N.Y./Seaford) and Abby Ramirez (Chicago, Ill./Trinity).

I was on the phone watching opening ceremony on NRA website but I swear I just heard John McCain at the NRA Annual Meeting say. So tell me If I heard this correctly? He opposses any ban on Assault Rifles because he did say that banning a guns based on features is not right and he opposses it. Did I miss hear that?
However, I did hear him say he is in favor of backround checks at gun shows; however, he doesn't support a ban on private transfers between family members. Hummmm..

Women's Lax Drops One-Goal Contest to Quinnipiac in MAAC Opener
HAMDEN, Conn. - Despite being up by as many as four goals early in the second half, the Jaspers fell to the Quinnipiac Bobcats in each team's first Metro Atlantic Athletic Conferece (MAAC) game of the spring. With the loss, Manhattan falls to 2-7 on the year. The win marks Quinnipiac's first of the season and first as a member of the MAAC.
The Jaspers held an 8-6 edge at halftime and were up 10-6 only 1:53 into the second stanza, but the Bobcats stormed back scoring six of the game's final seven goals. Quinnipiac went on a 4-0 run in the middle of the second frame to tie the game at 10, but junior Domenica O'Brey halted the spurt with 6:04 to play. O'Brey's tally put Manhattan back up by a goal with the score 11-10. Quinnipiac netted the last two goals of the game over the final 5:52 of play to leap ahead and finish on top.
The Jaspers offense was very balanced, as seven players accounted for the 11 goals. Senior Kelsey Rehain, junior O'Brey, sophomore Megan Yarusso and freshman Darby Nolan each tallied twice. Seniors Clare Kerrisk and Carly Eskenazi and junior Donna Jo DiNorcia scored once apiece. Rehain and Nolan had a team-high three points each.
Defensively, DiNorcia led the team with two ground balls and two caused turnovers. Junior starting goalkeeper Christina Fiorinelli made 12 saves in the contest.
For Quinnipiac, Kyra Ochwat had a game-high six point effort. Ochwat registered four goals and two assists on the afternoon. Kelly Babstock also scored four times for the Bobcats.
The loss marked the third time this season the Jaspers have fallen by just one goal.
Manhattan is back in action on Wednesday, April 2, when they host the Siena Saints for a MAAC duel at Gaelic Park. The opening draw is set for 3 p.m. The meeting with Siena kicks off a three-game homestand for the Jaspers.

Beautiful application
By CanadianMade
from Kanata, Ontario
Even though this product is sold out at the time of writing, it may come back. I purchased the Vienna version of this eye shadow and it is perfect for my dark skin and dark brown eyes. The only complaint is that it did not come with an applicator, so you will need to use a Qtip or brush of your own. It would be great if the TSC could list the country of origin of beauty products so that we can make a more informed decision.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
The colours are vibrant and the fabrication is soft. I would have given it a 5 star rating, but I was expecting a built-in applicator which is not included. Will have to find my own brush.

The palace may not be pleased with Prince Harry's recent Las Vegas antics, but images of the nearly naked Royal have earned the Prince a few new fans - "Bachelorette" stars Isla Fisher, Kirsten Dunst and Rebel Wilson.
Access Hollywood caught up with the stars at the premiere of their new comedy in Los Angeles on Thursday to find out if they think the Prince would make a good bachelorette party guest.

"If his butterfly breaststroke hybrid was anything to go by, then yes," Isla told Access, referencing the Prince's Sin City weekend pool race with Olympian Ryan Lochte. "I think it's a pretty funny bit of footage.
"I mean, I wouldn't want to be in the palace right now," she added with a laugh. "I'm sure the Queen's not exactly jumping for joy."

"Bridesmaids" alum Rebel Wilson admitted she too would enjoy a little Royal blood at her festivities.
"If Prince Harry wanted to strip at my bachelorette party I would allow it," the hilarious actress told Access. "I mean, I wouldn't be like, 'Oh, no.' I'd be like, 'Yes!'"
Kirsten told Access the Prince would "definitely, definitely" be fun to party with, but said his naked party photos weren't exactly shocking.

The Federation of Canadian Municipalities' (FCM) project aims to enhance sustainable and equitable economic growth in selected developing countries in Africa, Asia and the Americas. Its specific purpose is to support local governments and local government associations (LGAs) in these countries to enable them to provide more effective services that advance sustainable and equitable local economic development.
The FCM co-manages the project with the seven national LGAs. Technical assistance is provided to LGAs to increase their capacity for policy development and political representation, so that national legislation, regulations and policies are supportive of an increased local government role in economic development. As well, technical assistance supports their efforts to establish training and knowledge-sharing programs on sustainable and equitable economic development.
The project concentrates on key areas important to local governments' ability to provide an efficient and attractive operating environment for both large and small-scale businesses. Up to 15 demonstration projects are undertaken in selected local governments of the seven target countries. Up to three local governments are involved in each demonstration project for a total of up to 45 local governments directly benefitting from the program. These projects focus on: (a) local economic governance, including political leadership (men, women and youth leaders), business development advocacy, local economic development planning, and business and community engagement; (b) municipal services to businesses; and (c) revenue generation, and access to financing. The demonstration projects aim to create positive changes in the local governments involved. They also help the LGAs to exemplify or advocate for policy and legislative changes, and to provide examples of best practices to be disseminated to other local governments in the country and the region.
The delivery of technical assistance to local municipalities by volunteer Canadian municipal practitioners is at the core of this FCM project.
This is a new feature, part of CIDA's efforts towards increasing transparency. Information will only be available for projects approved after October 15, 2011. For other projects, information on expected results is usually included in the description.
Results achieved as of March 2013 include: This project is supporting 20 demonstration projects following the completion of 27 local economic development plans. At the local level, 24 new local economic development services were developed and 613 municipal staff, including 22% women, were trained on various aspects of local economic development. They are now applying new skills in areas such as business information exchange (Cambodia), a municipal local economic development unit (Nicaragua), and tourism development (Vietnam). At the national level, seven country program strategies were developed and seven local government associations have completed their capacity building plans. A total of 1,173 local government leaders, including 17% women, participated in local economic development training delivered by or in collaboration with local government associations. This training has contributed to local government associations strengthening their intergovernmental relations, policy development, and member relations and services. For example, gender-disaggregated baseline data on local economic development indicators was collected for the first time in three towns of Bolivia, a diagnostic study of productive capacity and environmental conditions in an Arenal Reserve project was completed in Matagalpa, Nicaragua, and five demonstration projects on local economic development planning were completed in Cambodia. At the regional and global levels, Municipal Partners for Economic Development partners are participating in municipal networks that help showcase and share best practices in local economic development from demonstration projects (such as land administration in Vietnam, support for local entrepreneurs in Tanzania and local economic development corridor initiatives in Mali and Burkina Faso),and utilizing their participation in these networks to help develop national policies regarding the role of local governments in development that benefits men, women and youth.

Latin American art auction fetches $11 million
By Walker Simon
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Latin American art works fetched a total of more than $11 million in a comparatively strong sale that set five world auction records for the artists, Christie's said.
Virgilio Garza, Christie's Latin American chief, credited the excitement about the Thursday evening sale to the top three selling works, all from the 1940s and rarely available to the market.
"That really brought people in," he told Reuters, "People flew in from all over."
A rediscovered 1943 masterpiece of Cuban modernism by artist Mario Carreno called "Fuego en el Batey," (Fire in the Farm), was the top seller at $2.1 million. A family on Long Island unexpectedly offered the work, whose whereabouts had been unknown.
Layered in thick swipes of industrial car enamel, it depicts a panic-stricken mother handing a child to a man on horseback fleeing a burning farm. Its swirling colorful arcs and the horse's blurred motion recall the Italian Futurists, Garza said.
Mexican Leonora Carrington's "The Giantess," sold for $1.42 million, setting a record for the English-born surrealist who is still active at 93 years old.
"The Giantess" shows a towering blond allegorically commanding flora and fauna, the earth, sea and sky, Christie's said. The work, set mostly against a watery background, embodies her fascination with mystical femininity.
A 1941 Diego Rivera self-portrait had a $1.02 million price tag. Painted at age 55, Rivera's wife Frida Kahlo said he looked like a frog in the piece, with his skin tinged with green and one eye drooping, according to Garza. Continued...

Darth Vader has had a bad run in the press, but try seeing things from his perspective. Sure, he's done a lot of bad things, what with the blowing up of the planets and the crushing of the rebellion and the cutting off of his sons hand and all, but don't forget that he also kept a lot of citizens in jobs and kept the economy ticking over with two moon sized construction projects and a great dental plan.
