"It was a huge risk. It was shocking."To read more or comment...

The Ohio High School Athletic Association Board of Directors is adopting a rule that many other states also utilize in lopsided football games.
Starting this upcoming season, if a team is ahead by 30 points or more in the second half of a game than a running clock will take place.
"First and foremost, this was proposed out of concern for player safety," said Beau Rugg, the OHSAA's assistant commissioner in charge of football, wrestling and all officiating.
"Lopsided games aren't good for anybody. The risk of injury goes up and it can be a tense situation for coaches and players. The length of games is also a topic of conversation at the national level. This is just the right thing to do."To read more or comment...

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio High School Athletic Association member schools passed 14 proposed Constitution and Bylaw revisions, Commissioner Daniel B. Ross, Ph.D., announced Friday following ballot counting.
One item, regarding a proposed Constitution revision that would make it mandatory for schools to return a ballot, is a virtual tie and will be recounted next week. The OHSAA's annual referendum voting period is from May 1-15, with approved items going into effect August 1 unless otherwise noted.
After a total of 820 ballots were mailed in late April, 737 were returned for a voter turnout of 90 percent. Only 83 member schools did not return a ballot.
Highlighting the referendum voting was approval of a Competitive Balance Plan that makes modifications on how schools are placed in tournament divisions in team sports. The plan, approved by the membership after three similar proposals were narrowly defeated between 2011 and 2013, passed 411 votes to 323 votes (56 percent to 44 percent, with three ballots abstaining). It will become effective during the 2016-2017 school year.To read more or comment...

Holmgren, a 6-foot-1 and 160-pound guard, played three years on the Comets varsity team and was a two-year starter.

Davey Johnson statement on passing of Gary Carter
"Today, the world of baseball lost a Hall-of-Famer and I have lost a treasured friend. Anyone lucky enough to have been part of Gary Carter's world will agree...nobody loved life in a bigger way than Gary. He seized every opportunity to savor what mattered most to him: his close-knit, loving family; meaningful, enduring friendships; an unbridled passion for baseball; and the fulfillment he felt from making a difference in his community. Gary's brave battle has ended, but his from-the-gut laughter will be heard and his vitality and spirit will be felt forever. I loved him very much, and I know he is finally at peace."

GTA III Maverick
Is there really a helicopter in GTA III that is specifically called a "Maverick"? I really support removing mention of GTA III's helicopter or moving it to a new article (Helicopter (GTA III)). - ZS 11:13, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- The helicopter in Grand Theft Auto III isn't playable and it almost looks like a Huey actually rather than the Long Ranger based Maverick of Vice City, Liberty City Stories, San Andreas and Vice City stories. Red Polar Bear Ranger
- That's very clear, but it is really called a Maverick? - ZS 19:10, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- Because it wasn't possible for the player to fly the helicopter it wasn't given a name like drivable vehicles are. Biggest GTA Fan EverTalk 22:24, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

I have never seen one of those flying around, and I can't find anything on YouTube showing it, or any images. Does anyone have an image they can upload? Fluffy Clouds 19:30, February 5, 2010 (UTC)
Don't have any images but just watch Weazel News at the TV and you will see it, it's a white one with black stripes, and it's the same who sometimes fly over the bridges, if you want it try to snipe the pilot and take a screenshot.Nostrein 14:20, February 18, 2010 (UTC)
Bell 207 and Bell 407
I am pretty sure that the gta III universe maverick was the Augusta Bell 207 (Because it has 2 blades)and the gta IV universe maverick is a Augusta Bell 407(Because it has 4 blades)Andrew nicholson 17:00, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
- The chopper is depicted in its earlier two-bladed form in both a TV recording, as well as a game art. Looks reasonable enough to believe they put a four-blade rotor later. - ZS 18:14, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
You can keep the golden chopper in tbogt
After it lands on the boat thing, and the drug wars thing ends, just go back and take it to Playboy's Safehouse, that's the easiest place to land a chopper for me. Jackass2009 04:22, July 29, 2010 (UTC)
Message in Maverick in GTA IV
Can someone get a screenshot of the humorous message inside the Maverick? It would be a good addition to the Maverick gallery. User:Omega'sHand
New maverick or just new helicopter?
hey look at this screenshot it looks alot like the police helicopter in the GTA V screenshots so could it be the new maverick or just a new helicopter??
Zombotech Corporation (talk) 06:49, January 12, 2013 (UTC)
Updated Maverick, I think. Only the game will tell. Mikey Klebbitz (talk) 17:48, January 12, 2013 (UTC)
How can you be sure?
Are you sure this is a Maverick? Because if you look in the first trailer, in the shot of the police chasing that black guy down an alley, there is a Maverick identical to the GTA IV one (albeit in LSPD colours obviously). So either there is multiple generations of the same vehicle (which would be cool, they should do it with a lot more vehicles) or its a different chopper all together. Sammyrock0087 (talk) 06:51, May 9, 2013 (UTC)
- The GTA IV Maverick didn't appear after the first trailer, so I think it was only in the beta.Dodo8 Talk
True, but we'll just have to wait until the games release to be sure. Sammyrock0087 (talk) 18:38, May 9, 2013 (UTC)
I told you, I knew I was right.
I knew the new chopper wasn't a Maverick, it's a Frogger. What did I say? Sammyrock0087 (talk) 11:42, September 21, 2013 (UTC)
Paintjob section
Should we need to keep the paintjob section or delete this one? Having this is like giving this section to all vehicles, unless we should keep it only for special paintjobs. Just giving a point. -- SWAT Cam F 17:34, November 8, 2015 (UTC)

Two kidnappers remained at large Thursday as Los Angeles police and the FBI tried to find out what prompted the abduction of a 10-year-old Northridge girl.
Nicole Ryan, who was discovered missing early Wednesday, was found 11 hours later wandering shoeless in a Woodland Hills strip mall.
She was back home Thursday after being evaluated at a hospital.
The LAPD was looking for two men the girl said abducted her. Nicole described one only as a white man about 18 years old and did not have a description of the other, Cmdr. Andrew Smith said.
Nicole told police she did not know the men, who she said took her from her house to an abandoned home nearby and then to a storage facility before dropping her off at Kaiser Permanente's Woodland Hills Medical Center. Nicole said she was put in several vehicles during the ordeal.
Such stranger abductions are highly unusual in the United States and in Los Angeles, Smith said. He said detectives would "leave no stone unturned" and were investigating Nicole's family, registered sex offenders in the area and whether something that happened online led to the crime.
The LAPD's elite Robbery Homicide Division, whose Special Assault Section investigates kidnappings, was leading the investigation.
The Los Angeles Times reported police were investigating whether there is a link to a 2008 kidnapping case that involved a child related to the Ryan family.
Police already had one vehicle in custody Wednesday night and were looking for others. They also found a storage facility at Mason Avenue and Nordhoff Street and were treating it as a crime scene.
Police said relatives told them Nicole did not have a history of running away and there was no apparent incident that would have led her to leave.
On Thursday, Nicole's relatives did not speak to media camped outside the family house, which was still surrounded with yellow police tape. But late in the morning, a blonde woman, believed to be Nicole's aunt, ducked under yellow crime tape and briskly walked to her car parked off Oakdale Avenue as news cameras swarmed her. The woman, who did not give her name, was faintly heard saying Nicole was home and doing fine.
Stanely Zeitlin, who has a garage abutting the Ryan house, said he didn't know about the reported kidnapping until Wednesday around 6 a.m. when helicopters began hovering overhead.
Otherwise, Zeitlin he rarely heard any noise come from the house other than kids occasionally playing in the neighborhood on the weekends.
But other neighbors said they were shocked to know a child lived at the house, which is on a quiet block of Oakdale Avenue.
"We're very familiar with the neighborhood, but we didn't even know there were kids there," said Stephanie Dolatre, who lives off Gresham Street just two houses from the intersection of Oakdale. "I've certainly never seen the girl."
Dolarte said her son told her he'd occasionally seen the redheaded girl riding her bicycle around the block, although the two children didn't know each other.
Dolarte's 2-year-old son goes to Primrose Child Care at the corner of Oakdale and Gresham, and she never worried for his safety until Wednesday. With her neighborhood turned into a crime scene, she was suddenly cautious.
"My husband left for work last night, and I was scared," Dolarte said. "It makes you worry when you don't know what's going on."
A day earlier, Ashley Mansour and her boyfriend, Jamal Sayed, stood at another scene surrounded by police tape: the strip mall in Woodland Hills where Nicole was found. They were surprised to hear about the attempted abduction.
"I was born and raised in Northridge, so for it to happen in my neighborhood was scary to hear about it," Mansour said.
Nicole's mother last saw her in bed about 1 a.m. Police said she woke to a noise about 3:30 a.m., checked on Nicole and discovered her missing.
A neighbor, Amanda Velasquez, said in an interview that her son came in her room about the same time, 3:30 or 4 a.m., but didn't mention anything being wrong. Later in the day, he told his mother he'd heard a door slam in the middle of the night.
There was no sign of forced entry to the Ryan home, but a missing persons flyer said the back door was unlocked and the side gate was open - a gate whose lock Nicole could not reach without help.
The disappearance triggered a massive police response. Capt. Kris Pitcher of the LAPD's Devonshire Division said police did a door-to-door search in a two-square-mile radius around Nicole's house.
Officers and detectives from all seven LAPD stations in the San Fernando Valley joined in the search, along with other LAPD officers and FBI agents with the juvenile abduction unit.
Just before 3 p.m. Wednesday, someone spotted Nicole at a shopping center at Canoga Avenue and Oxnard Street in Woodland Hills, about six miles away from her house. The person recognized her from media reports and notified nearby police officers.
Police said Nicole had "facial bruising and lacerations," but was walking and talking. She was last seen at home wearing a black T-shirt, but had on a white T-shirt when she was found.
"She basically is in shock right now," Pitcher said Wednesday afternoon.
Velasquez, who has lived behind the Ryan family for two years, described Nicole as reserved.
"She is very withdrawn and very quiet. She doesn't say much," Velasquez said.
She said the Ryans seemed to be up late a lot.
"They are up at all hours of the night sometimes," she said. "I know because their lights shine right on my French doors."
At a news conference Wednesday night, LAPD Capt. William Hayes, commander of the Robbery Homicide Division, told reporters, "you have a 10-year-old girl ... who was taken from her home and held by individuals for several hours. If these individuals are brazen enough to do that, I'm putting all the resources I have to make sure they don't do it again."
Police officers said they were not sure when they would open up portion of Oakdale Avenue near the girl's house, as they were protecting neighbors from media and curious bystanders.

whoa, scary times for the LAPD
http://news.sky.com/story/1049315/ex...ling-manifestoThe former police officer at the centre of a manhunt after a shooting spree that left three people dead has issued a killing list of "high value targets".
Christopher Dorner vowed "warfare" on anyone working for the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), promising an element of surprise by attacking where they work, sleep or eat.
http://www.scribd.com/doc/124363332/...rner-ManifestoI know most of you who personally know me are in disbelief to hear from media reports that I am suspected of committing such horrendous murders and have taken drastic and shocking actions in the last couple of days. You are saying to yourself that this is completely out of character of the man you knew who always wore a smile wherever he was seen. I know I will be villified by the LAPD and the media. Unfortunately, this is a necessary evil that I do not enjoy but must partake and complete for substantial change to occur within the LAPD and reclaim my name. The department has not changed since the Rampart and Rodney King days. It has gotten worse. The consent decree should never have been lifted. The only thing that has evolved from the consent decree is those officers involved in the Rampart scandal and Rodney King incidents have since promoted to supervisor, commanders, and command staff, and executive positions...

Most of my work with younger children happens within the context of family therapy. When I work with children individually, I use modalities that are primarily experiential in nature such as art and play therapy through which I more able to gauge specific developmental deficits and needs. In all the years I have been working with people, the most profound and lasting wounds resulted from attachment issues experienced as children who often merely want adults to be with them in a safe, affirming way.

Awesome board!

Comments about Ronix Quarter 'Til Midnight Wakeboard - Women's 2012:
Very nice board. I was afraid switching boards since my old one was a 3 stage rocker and this one is a hybrid that has both continuous and 3 stage. I was afraid I would lose some pop and that I'd have to adjust to the new board. Well the first run it felt normal but when I did some jumps it felt super clean. My left leg wasn't geting shot in the air like with my old board, I had more comtrol of my body and my board is now horizontal in the air and not diagonal like before. I am getting much higher on this board too. I am glad I switched!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Brain Freeze: Conservative media still using winter weather to attack global warming
Research ››› ››› CHRISTINE SCHWEN
Conservative media figures have used the recent snowstorms in the Washington, D.C., area to level more science-free attacks on global warming. As Media Matters for America has repeatedly noted, scientists agree that short-term localized weather patterns are not relevant to global warming.
If at first you don't deceive ... Conservative media again use winter snow to deny global warming
Limbaugh: It's "absurd" that Obama admin proposed global warming agency amidst "record-setting cold weather." On the February 9 broadcast of his radio show, Rush Limbaugh stated: "The Obama administration yesterday, amidst all this record-setting cold weather, proposed a new agency to study and report on the changing climate, also known as global warming." He added: "They're having to delay setting up the office [of Climate Service] because they're expecting another 16 to 20 inches [of snow] in Washington. I mean, this is absurd."
Fox & Friends asserts "dichotomy" between "those big snowstorms" and proposed "federal office to study global warming." On the February 9 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, co-host Gretchen Carlson said she wanted to talk about the "dichotomy" created by "big snowstorms" occurring while "the Obama administration [is] talking about creating a new federal office to study global warming." Co-host Steve Doocy added: "It's interesting, though, given the fact that the weather is so rotten right now that people are going, 'how can there be global warming if it's snowing and it's fairly cold?' "
Washington Times: D.C.'s "Snowmageddon" is "undermining the case for global warming one flake at a time." In a February 8 editorial headlined, "Snowmageddon is nigh," The Washington Times wrote that reports of more snow blanketing Washington, D.C., "must send chills up the spines of global warming adherents, for whom this winter has been marked by discontent." The editorial later added: "Those who value freedom should thank Mother Nature for her sense of humor, undermining the case for global warming one flake at a time. So although we're quite tired of shoveling, we say, 'Bring on the blizzard.' "
Hannity: "I'm sure the Climate Service will do a lot to ... help with the snow." From the February 8 edition of Fox News' Hannity:
SEAN HANNITY (host): Now, earlier today, Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke tunneled his way through two feet of snow in D.C. in order to hold a news conference to discuss the threat global warming poses to the U.S.
He announced that your hard-earned tax dollars will be funding a new government agency on climate change that will be known as the Climate Service and will be headquartered in D.C.
And I'm sure the Climate Service will do a lot to get us out of this economic crisis, and, by the way, probably help with the snow.
Erickson said of D.C.'s snow: "You know what this all means right? We need a new federal agency to 'study and report on the changing climate.' " In a February 8 post on RedState.com, Erick Erickson wrote:
There are thirty inches of snow in Washington, DC. Here in Macon, Georgia, an area global warming scientists have long predicted would become a desert, we are 24 inches into a rain surplus in the past 365 calendar days.
You know what this all means right? We need a new federal agency to "study and report on the changing climate."
BigGov: "[A]nother 10-20 inches of snow ... Now THAT is some climate change." In a February 9 post to BigGovernment.com, a blogger writing under the pseudonym "Publius" wrote:
Yesterday, President Obama announced his plan to create a new federal agency tasked with climate change. Later that day, the National Weather Service announced that DC was due to receive another 10-20 inches of snow today. (On top of the 2 1/2 feet of snow over the weekend.) Now THAT is some climate change.
Reality: Snow in winter does not disprove global warming
FACT: Cold weather has no relevance to the climate debate. In a March 2, 2008, article, The New York Times reported that climate scientists -- including at least one who has disputed aspects of the scientific consensus on climate change -- completely reject the notion that short-term changes in weather bear any relevance to the climate debate. The article quoted Gavin Schmidt, a climate modeler at NASA saying: "It's all in the long-term trends. Weather isn't going to go away because of climate change."
FACT: 2000-2009 was the warmest decade on record. In January, major meteorological organizations throughout the world -- including NASA -- released reports showing that the past decade, 2000-2009, was the warmest on record. The reports undermine the right-wing media's numerous claims that recent snow and cold weather show climate change does not exist or has slowed over the past 10 years.
Media conservatives have a long history of using weather to deny global warming
Led by Fox News hosts, conservative media use weather patterns to claim the planet is cooling. Led by Fox News, conservative media figures have relentlessly turned to weather patterns in their ongoing assault on global warming science, despite reports showing the past decade was the warmest on record.

Miley Cyrus is wigging out.
The ubiquitous pop star took to Twitter on Tuesday and shared a couple of pictures in which she tries out new (fake) hairstyles.
In the first photo, Cyrus goes with long locks that call to mind her "Hannah Montana" past, while her second pic features a striking purple cut with bangs.

But Brennan in that briefing said the al Qaeda leader died in a firefight, a claim the White House later retracted.
The official line is that civilian casualties, in the words of Brennan, are "exceedingly rare."
In the front row not far from where his own parents sat, he sighted both Mr. Maxwell and Mr. Brennan.
"Mrs. Burke has gone," Brennan said, as he came over to the counter.
Mr. Brennan, will you state your name for the record, please?
Brennan is in the office, and I have some matters to arrange with him.
When James escaped for the third, and very successful, time, Brennan was helpless.

Had the privalige of watching his fights in the 2004 mundials. Never in my life have I seen an atmosphere and crowd as wild as that in a grappling or bjj tournament, and it was 99 percent from his fans.
They were all grouped up in one corner of the stadium, with huge drums, singing 'OOOOOO TERERE!!! OOOOOOH TEERERE' or something, his fight with Roger Gracie where he broke his arm, ran around the mat for 3 minutes because he was winning on points, madness. Never seen anything like it since.

text: Making the Connections The winners of this year's Interior Design Education Video Competition demonstrate the link between the work of designers and the health, safety and welfare of occupants in healthcare environments. by Robert Nieminen * required fields From* To* Message cancel At the core of the heated debate about regulating the profession of interior design is the question of whether or not an interior designer's work has a measurable impact on the health, safety and welfare (HSW) of the general public. With the battle over legislation hitting a fever pitch in Florida recently, licensed interior designers and professional associations such as the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) and International Interior Design Association (IIDA) have been hard pressed to convey to legislators in many states how their work affects the public, thanks to well-funded organizations like the Institute for Justice who have portrayed interior designers as nothing more than glorified florists. The popularity of new media, such as YouTube, hasn't helped matters. A search for "interior design" invariably delivers results with a focus on the "decorator-type" shows seen on television which only exacerbates and confuses the issue. As a result, four interior design associations decided to forgo the traditional models of communication, such as press conferences and news releases, to reach the public and engage decision makers where they search for information: the Web. As a result, the Interior Design Educators Council (IDEC) partnered with the National Council of Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ), Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA), American Academy of Healthcare Interior Designers (AAHID) and Interiors & Sources magazine to host the second annual Interior Design Education Video Competition. The international competition, open to interior design students, interior design educators and interior design practitioners, called for the creation of a short video that demonstrated the importance of established interior design education and examination standards. "Our primary goal when starting this competition was to tell the story of how competent interior designers come to be (education plus experience plus examination) and how their work affects the public," explains Jeff Kenney, executive director of NCIDQ. "Today's students and younger members of the public look first to social media such as YouTube and Twitter for so much of their information, and we want to be on those platforms to get our story out." Given the complexity of the HSW issue, on which volumes have already been written, the contest organizers decided that short videos would be the most effective way to get their message across. "One way to look at a video in the competition is to picture standing next to your state legislator with the video on your laptop. Would he or she 'get it' in a one- to two-minute video?" explains Kenney. "Interior design is such a visual profession that the use of still and moving images is a very good way to convey what it is that interior designers do in practice." The theme for this year's competition centered on the question: How is the public's health, safety and welfare protection enhanced by the skills of fully prepared healthcare interior design practitioners? "For our first competition we focused on 'health, safety and welfare,'" says Kenney, which the associations felt was rather broad; it was eventually narrowed down to healthcare. "Healthcare is one area where legislators and the public can easily understand why someone designing every aspect of what is seen, touched and experienced in a healthcare setting should be competent to do that design work," he adds. The winners of the 2010 Interior Design Education Video Competition were announced on March 19, 2011 during the IDEC Annual Conference in Denver, Colo. The winning video, submitted by a team of students from Louisiana State University, is titled "Interior Design & Healthcare." Students Colette DeJean, Leigh Hardy, Ryan Weilenman, Sarah Tull and Alyse Lambert worked under the guidance of faculty advisor Danielle Johnson. Judges commented that the video was "very relevant, imaginative, informative," and an "on target explanation of how professional interior design impacts healthcare." In second place was a video produced by Ahmed Alawadhi from the University of Missouri, Columbia, titled, "The Role of Accredited Healthcare Interior Designer." Judges noted that "it informs about interior design skills" and "reaches several audiences" as its strong points. The judges selected as the third place video a team effort by Radford University students Michelle Cleverdon, Laura Payne, Ashleigh Wilson, Kendra Travis and Katie Childress, working under faculty advisor Holly Cline. Judges praised this video for emphasizing design, targeting healthcare professionals, and being informative regarding interior design skills and experience. More than 25 videos were submitted for consideration by a panel of judges from IDEC, AAHID, CIDA and NCIDQ. Winning videos receive cash prizes along with recognition on sponsoring organizations' websites. The winning videos and other contest entries can be seen online at www.youtube.com/idecorg.

Aw yuck. Sorry - I don't argue that these are good, but they say "chew" - hard for me to even leave in my mouth long enough to swallow! But they also claim to have no fishy report, and I found that to be true.

Country Life Omega products are "Pharmaceutical Grade", what ever that means. I didn't find pretty much anything good to say about these products. Starting from the horrible package. It's hard to get the "Jelly" (Lemon gummies) fully out the of aluminum foil (so far 0% success rate), at least you got a new challenge everyday. Taste does have some lemon, but otherwise you can taste the fish too (not in a a good way). I gave few lemon gummies to other persons to test, and they didn't like them at all. Only good thing is the price ($1.95 each), but with regular price, there's just no reason to buy these!

Activist ships are clinging grimly to the wake of the Japanese factory ship, Nisshin Maru, after it was caught processing minke whales in the Antarctic.
The Nisshin Maru cut short its whaling and sped north of the Ross Sea with two Sea Shepherd ships on its tail on Monday, its hunt disrupted only days after arriving in the whaling area.
Rare, graphic images of minkes being butchered on the deck of the factory ship were captured by the activists in a helicopter inside the International Whaling Commission's Southern Ocean whale sanctuary.
"It's just a gruesome, bloody, medieval scene which has got no place in this modern world," said Sea Shepherd Australia chairman Bob Brown.
The engagement marked the resumption of hostilities between the two sides for a tenth season, as a decision on the legality of the hunt is awaited from the International Court of Justice.
A third Sea Shepherd ship, the Bob Barker, was sailing for Tasmania's Macquarie Island in an attempt to shake off a pursuing Japanese ship, with all whaling vessels banned from Australian waters.
This foreshadowed a test of the Abbott government's resolve against whaling, which Dr Brown questioned after the Environment Minister, Greg Hunt, failed to deliver on an election promise to send a Customs ship to monitor the kill.
Mr Hunt re-confirmed a government commitment to flights by the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service, which he said was the first monitoring effort in six years.
"It will also allow us to monitor multiple ships in a diversely spread fleet," Mr Hunt said.
But with the conflict currently in New Zealand's search and rescue zone, the spotlight is turning on an angry demand of Sea Shepherd by its Foreign Minister, Murray McCully.
Mr McCully said in a letter to Sea Shepherd Australia's managing director Jeff Hansen that he was "very disappointed" with the group over its "unacceptable" previous non-compliance with New Zealand government directives.
He demanded that the group's three ships report their positions twice daily while in the NZ search and rescue zone.
Dr Brown said that Sea Shepherd may comply if given a public guarantee the same requirement was being fulfilled by the Japanese fleet, and that the information would remain confidential.
"This criminal behaviour by these Japanese whale killers is taking place in front of the whole world, while the Australian and New Zealand governments sit on their hands," he said.
Japan's Consul-General in Melbourne, Hidenobu Sobashima, said the government would not comment on statements by Sea Shepherd, but stood by its belief that the whaling was lawful research for scientific purposes.
Mr Sobashima said unlawful violent activities by Sea Shepherd were unacceptable.
"The Government of Japan has repeatedly requested the government of Australia, as a flag state and a port of call by Sea Shepherd vessels, to take effective measures to ensure the safety of navigation at sea, and hopes such specific measures will be taken," Mr Sobashima said.

The Woods claims 12th victory for Clabber Girl Trophy
December 17th, 2010 |
The Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College basketball team poses with the Clabber Girl Trophy after a 56-54 victory over Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.
Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College women's basketball team took the 56-54 victory over cross-town rival Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in the annual Clabber Girl Trophy Game at Rose-Hulman on Tuesday. The Clabber Girl record for the two teams stands at 12-5.
The game began slow for both teams, with the Pomeroys not scoring in the first 4 minutes, but was able to maintain a 3-point lead at the half.
The Woods extended its lead to 29-16 early in the second half, due to a 10-2 run. The game then became a back and forth exchange of points over the next 9 minutes. The Pomeroys were up 42-32 at the midway point in the second half, then Rose began their comeback, scoring 7 points on the next 2 possessions, cutting the Pomeroy lead to only 3 points with less than 6 minutes remaining.
Jenni McLeish (Clinton, Ind.) hit a 3 pointer down the stretch, to give the Pomeroys a 50-41 lead, but the Engineers weren't done yet. Rose-Hulman's Marsh scored their next 10 points to get within three points at 54-51 with 17.2 seconds left. Brittney Shaner (Greenwood, Ind.) hit a free throw to put SMWC ahead by four points with 15 seconds left, then Rose-Hulman's Meadows drained her second 3 pointer with 5.1 seconds, slicing the SMWC lead to 55-54. In a close battle for bragging rights, Brooke Brown (Centerville, Ohio) hit 1 of 2 free throws with 3 seconds remaining, and Jordan Barton (Indianapolis, Ind.) stole the ball as time ran out and the Pomeroys enjoyed a time of relief and celebration.
According to the Terre Haute Tribune Star, SMWC Coach Deanna Bradley said, "We're having trouble maintaining a lead for some reason." She added, "Anybody you're playing, if you don't take control of a game you put [your opponent] in a position to win. They didn't take control, we didn't take control. So either team could have come out on top."
The win boosts the Pomeroys to a 6-2 record on the season. SMWC travels to Indiana Tech on Friday.

GOP Says Tax Man Cometh for Health Law Enrollees
Republican lawmakers on Tuesday warned that Americans getting larger health-insurance subsidies than they should under the Affordable Care Act will face a tax hit come April.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the agency overseeing the health law, has said that at the end of May there were around 1.2 million people whose insurance-exchange applications for coverage had income inconsistencies. That could include people who had misstated their income, had a change in family status, or who got a bonus or raise.
Republicans lawmakers are zeroing in on the issue in part because the Obama administration assured them during last year's budget talks that the system to ensure income information was accurate would be operational.
Now, Republicans say, those with income inconsistencies could see smaller tax refunds or owe potentially thousands of dollars to the government next tax season. They may be unaware that money could be taken out of their income tax returns or that they may in some cases have to pay back some or all of the erroneous subsidies, they said.
At a hearing of the House health and oversight subcommittees on Tuesday, some Republicans called for a special inspector general to monitor the Affordable Care Act and for a temporary halt to the issuance of federal subsidies. Democrats on the subcommittees said Republicans were engaging in "fear mongering" to deter Americans from signing up for coverage.
"Let's stop kidding ourselves and admit there will be glitches with the ACA," said Rep. Linda Sanchez (D., Calif.) "It's clear this hearing is just another attempt to bash the ACA."
Low-earning Americans who sign up for health insurance on the health law's exchange may be eligible for subsidies to help them buy private insurance coverage.
The eligibility is also based on the availability of affordable employer-sponsored insurance. Because employers don't have to report on the insurance they offer employees until the 2015 plan year, applicants could get inaccurate subsidy amounts because the plan was considered affordable, said Douglas Holtz-Eakin, president of the American Action Forum, a conservative policy institute.
"Although these subsidies are going directly to insurers, next year the IRS will be in the position of recouping overpayments directly from individuals," said Rep. Charles Boustany (R., La.) "Many of these individuals will end up with unexpected tax debt through no fault of their own."
Calling it "much ado about nothing," Ron Pollack, executive director of Families USA, said most of the income discrepancies are small inconsistencies that will be rectified rather than true income inaccuracies.
