Mx$MlUm. RULES FOR COURTING. The following good advice on the above subject is from the pen of John Quill, who seems to have.rathor a blissful experience in relation to such matters -:' 1.. Never go courting the girl's pa-, rents. You'd better edge up to the clwiHer,horself at once ; for you can't rilarry her if you don't try, unless she wants you, and you may be able to even if the old folks are hard on. you. 2. By_.aU means get the, girl's ma down on you as much as possible. If the Mil lady is* always blowing against you, the little dear begins to take your part, and can't-help loving you. I did this way, and my present mother-in-law used to throw brooms and washboards at me, and teach tho dog to bite me in the trowsers as I climbed over, the fence. N. B. She's got over it now, and lives at my house without paying hoard. If remorse festers in her soul in conse- qnence of her conduct, however, I qayenft bbtieed it yet. 3. If you see any other fellows prowling about, always euchre them if you can. If you see one of them buy tickets for Tlie opera, .go aaght up and make an engagement with the girl, and get your tickets afterwards; and when they visit the house always act as.if you wefe at homo] anjd fcfiey fveS-6 only visitors', and never leavVfirst. I always did this, and have frequently sat until .daybreak, while thefair one snored away^on'lhe sofa. You can't bluff me. No, sir, ha! ha I I guess not.- I would have been there yet if the fellow had stayed. 4. If the old man has worldly wealth, express a dislike to. greenbacks, and a hankering after love in a small hause. 5. When you inquire if she-will have you, don't fall on your knees—it's ridiculous, Upsides being rough on trousers. Just take her hand and speak out like a man. 6. When you are engaged, don't go off like an old jackass, and begin buying teaspoons and wash boilers and candles. It is very unwise and excites comment. Why I recollect, I was so glad That I went right off and purchased a baby- jumper and a gum ring. It was a long while ore those things were necessary, the baby-jumper had shrunk so and that when we put the first of the little Quils into it, it suddenly jerked up, and came frightfully near battering the devoted child's brains out against the ceiling, while the gum ring, having been kept Jn a box with cockroach poison, threw the baby into fits, and he (it was a boy) had spasms in the orib for four days. 7. If a girl refuses you don't give it up, but try it again. Becausertwo negatives make an affirmative in grammar; however, don't consider yourself accepted when a girl jilts you twice. I asked one female forty-one times, and at last she got to expect it whenever I came, and sometimes would holler out " No I " from the top'of the stairs before I got fa-My in the house. 8. Kiss all the little children in the house, erven if they are dirty, and do smear molasses candy in your hair. Let the boy play horse with you and make a fool of you generally. It is a trump card if you play it right. 9. And finally, if there are two sisters, and the old one is jealous, get some one to choke rherofTwhile you go in for the younger.' I did that once, and used to get my friends to -ask the senior girl out every evening; but she found me out and used to arrange hair pins in the sofa cushions before she went out, so that it was extremely uncomfortable. If any further information iswanted, send me a letter enclosing stamp '(fifty cents), and I will cheerfully give it gratis.. A LEGEND OF THE GREAT EASTERN. '- There is a wild sort of legend in connection with the Gr&at Eastern steamship, the origin, of -whwjh I do not know, but the shiprights firmly believe in it. So much has been written about the construction of this famous vessel; that the slightest allusion to it here will suffice. She is a ship with two cases, orskins^as they are called ; that is, she; is almost like one ship fitted inside another. Between the inner and outer skin workmen can crawl for repairs. Dreadfully dark and sepulchral, of course, it is in there, for, from the nature of the space, • the workman must be completely closed in, excepting the spot where he enters. Very few smiths or shipwrights would care to work in here alone, for two terrible spec ties are supposed to haunt the place. Almost all the men who were engaged in the construction'of the vessel believe that, somewhere there in the darkness and thick air, lie two skeletons, which never can be found till -the vessel is broken up. These are'the remains of a'smith and his riveter, the latter being a lad. During the construction of the vessel these two workmen all through the week, kept full time ; and their work lay. in between the skins. The smith was an elderly man, of a moody temper, who made no friends; and was not popular with his mates. No one had seen him leaving woric; nobody was interested in him. But one pay day both he and his lad failed to appear at the pay table to draw their monejf. '-'They were never heard of more by any one who worsted on the Great Eastern. Of course their iab- senee had been noticed by the time Keeper and other officials; but the missing men being, as I have said, unpopular with their comrades, there had been very little inquiry about them until it was found that their money was not claimed. It was then soon noted that the last time they had been seen, that they were at worK" in the " case " of the ship, and before long it became a fixed notion that by a fall, or by the -effect of some vapor, the two had been Killed, or stunned until closed ia'; and all the hostof meriwho worxed at the great ship believed thatvsome- where m the 'vast IiuIk there lay two sKeletons, which, for some.. reason, could never be found; the.\prosaic idea that the old fellow and his helper had left without warning for a better job, finding, of course, no favor. ■ . LOOK" ALOFT. -When in a perilous position it is dangerous to look down. The sight.is very apt to create dizziness and fright,; and lead'to a fall. A boy on shipboard was sent out on one of the long, high yards to do some work. He finished his task, but as he walked back to the mast- on the single round 'yard, he looked down' to the deck, dizziness came over him, his head began to swim, and in another moment he might have fallen, and been killed. But the Waft;!*-. ful eye of $}e rcaptawi' saw ;tbe: lad's danger, and he cried out to hdm, in a tone that could but be obeyed,'" Look rfioft, boy, look aloft I " The astonished boy looked up, recovered his poise and self possession and reached the deck in safety. " My boy," said the captain," "when, in danger remember to look up." It is always dangerous to look down on things and people below us. ■ Your head may not swim.with .dizziness, you may not be paralyzed with fright, but by looking down on bad. persons and unworthy things your heart may grow dizzy, an,d in spite of good resolutions you may fall almost before you realize -your danger. The desires and feet usually follow the lead of the eyes. Look rriuoh at wicked companions and impure objects' and you will almost surely go downward and become bad too. It makes an immense difference boys, whether you look down or up. Many of the best young men have fallen, because they looked constantly at companions •and scenes that were unworthy and degraded. Many of themost promising boys have failed in life because they had no high aim—because they looked not above. The only safety for you, boys, in this world, so full of perils, and pitfalls, is in looking up to persons and things above you. The upward look steadies the heart, and keeps the being sound and strong. The more you think of. great and good men, the more will you wish to become great and good yourselves. The more you associate wi£h those, the wiser and better will you become. Heart and hand usually follow the eyes. Look up, you will most likely ascend. Boys, I give you a motto to-day— Look aloft. When you are tempted and your heart grows dizzy with wrong desires, remember the sailor boy, and look aloft. In your private hours, in your walks, plays, conversations, keep your eyes fixed on men and things above you. Look aloft in your meditations, and He who dwells above will reward /your upward look with . the prizes and prospects He has reserved for only those who look aloft. A Very Peculiar Case of Hydrophobia- From the Detroit Free Press, July 6. Sixteen years ago last Wednesday, James Bay, then a,resident of Pontiac, was bitten by a rabid dog, but experienced no serious effects' from the bite, until one year from the day ori which jhe was bitten. He then felt some sym- toms of the terrible disease, which soon developed into a most frightful attack. For six weeks -he was a raving maniac, and all hope of his recovery was abandoned; but an iron constitution, and skillful nursing, brought him out from the shadow of death, and he rallied, |the disease finally- passed off. He pur- su'd'd :the even tenor of his way until the second anniversary, when he was again attacked, but with less severity than on the first occasion. The 26th day of June in each succeeding year has been the occasion of a hydrophobic fit, the last of which attacked him one week ago yesterday, at Sandwich) where he was employed as a brickmaker. The usual symptoms were felt during the early part of the day, and Bay requested some of his friends to tie him in order to prevent personal injury. Being frightened by his personal appearance they refused to -do so, and he continued at his work all day and until midnight, his usual time for quitting. Going to a neighboring barn, he-tried to sleep off the dreaded attack. After a while his companions heard a noise in the barn, ahd learning that it was as Bay had declared, went to his aid. An appalling sight greeted them. The poor victim was foaming at the mouth, biting at various objects, and to all appearance suffering the most horrible agony. As soon as he caught sight of them, with eyes glowing like fireballs, and uttering an unearthly yell, he made a rush for them. The party at once retreated, leaving Bay alone in the gloomy hay- loftj-wrought up to the highest pitch of. maniacal frenzy^ and battling With an enemy that no mortal man can subdue. In one of his convulsions • he lifted a portion or the roof completely off, which evidently exhausted him, as nothing more was heard, and when his friends finally ventured to look after- him, he was found in a sound sleep. He was at once secured and taken to a safe place, where he was kept for several hours, and when he awoke nearly all traces of the previous night's awful experience had disappeared, and with the exception" of the exhaustion produced by his great escape by that means all would, be drowned. After many hours of laborious efforts to raise the boat, the hoisting machinery broke, and the attempt was necessarily abandoned. About the middle of the afternoon of the second day the bubbles commenced to grow fainter and more rarej and before sundown entirely ceased. The boat still lies where it went down, and passengers arriving by the steamer are _told by the boatmen, as they row towards the shore, the painful story of these ten men's fate, and of the females who still mourn in Valparaiso for their fath* ers and brothers,in the iron coffin- at the bottom of the sea. sultenngs was as well as usual. TEN MEN ON THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN. The -Herald's Valparaiso correspondent sends the following: After the bombardment of Valparaiso and while the Spanish fleet was at Callao, a man, residing at Valparaise, constructed a submarine boat for the purpose, of applying torpedoes to" .the bottom of the Spanish frigates. The boat was forty feet long, and was propelled by a screw worked by hand. So confident was the builder in her efficacy that at the first experiment in the bay he took with him into the boat his son and eight friends- After sailing about a few moments on the surface, the boat was made to sink without the precaution of having the cables atached for use in case of accident, or even a buoy to. mark the spot where she went down. Several hours elapsed, and the boat failing to return, the spectators crowded on the mole began to fear that all was not right, and as the day passed away, the conviction became general that the adventurous party had gone to the bottom. Late in the afternoon the mail steamer from Panama -came in and fired a gun near the spot where the boat disappeared. As the small boats were passing to and from the steamers with passengers, etc., bubbles were discovered rising upon the surface of the water where the submarine boat was last seen; and as they came up at regular intervals and in small numbers • it was supposed that the party was still alive, and hearing the steamer's gun, and knowing that a great many boats would be going.to and fro, was signalling for help by ejecting air. A diver belonging to one of the English men-of-war Was at once sent down', and after half an hour's anxious waiting he returned with the intelligence that the boat was on the bottom, in thirty-three fathoms of water. Chains arid cables were immediately attached to the boat, and repeated efforts made to raise her, but without avail, her bottom seeming to have been sucked into the oozy bed of the sea, and become firmly fastened. All night and the next day, until afternoon, the bubbles kept coming up like signals, ■ sometimes not appearing for half an hour at a time, and then suddenly rushing up for a few seconds with great force. The feelings of the popu- lac»/asse'mbled to rescue the party from their terrible fate may be imagined;' but what must have been the reflections of the men during these awful hours at the bottom of the sea, knqwing as they did what little hope there Was for them. They could have heard the divers working on the sides of their, boat attaching the chains, and, perhaps, -,j&$fr the strain as the cable drew taut; but as time sped away without their being raised, dispair, worse than death, must have taken possession of them. Doubtless they tried hard to signal through the sides of their boat to the diver hammering outside, but he, in his diving dress, could hear nothing. The apertures-to the interior were so small that but one person could pass through at a time, and that very slowly, so that if an attempt was made to DANIEL WEBSTER'S CHARACTER. Mr. Parton, the historian, in a late magazine article, thus portrays the character of-the late Daniel Webster He says : In surveying the life and works of this eminent and gifted man, we are continualjy struck with the evidences of his magnitude. He was, as we have said, a very large person. His brain was within a little of being one-third larger than the average, and it was one of the three largest on record. His -bodily frame, in all parts, was on a majestic scale, and his presence was immense. He liked large things—mountains, elms, great oaks, wide fields, the oeeaii, the Union, and all things of magnitude. He liked gseafc Borne far better than refined Greece, and reveled in the immense things of literature, such as Paradise Lost and the Book of Job' Burke, Dr. Johnson and the Sixth Book of iEneid. Homer he never cared for—nor,, indeed, anything Greek. He hated, he loathed the act of writing.. Billiards, ten-pins, chess, draughts, whist, he never relished, though fond to excess of out-door pleasures, like hunting, fishing, yachting. He liked to be alone with great nature—alone in the giant woods or on the shores of the resounding sea—alone all day with his gun, his dog and his thoughts—alone in the morning before any one was astir but himself, looking out upon the sea and the glorious sunrise, r What a delicious picture of this' large healthy son of earth Mr. Lanman gives us, where he describes his coming into his bed-room at sunrise. "Awake, sluggard ! and look upon this glorious scene, for the sky and' the ocean are enveloped in flames!" He was akin to all large, and slow things in nature. A herd offine cattle gave him a keen, arr inexhaustable enjoyment; but he never "tasted" a horse, he had no horse enthusiasm. In England he chiefly enjoyed these five things, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey. Smith- field Cattle Market, English farming, and Sir Eobert Peel. Sir Robert Peel, he thought, was "head and shoulders above any other man " he ever met.— He greatly excelled, too, ih describing immense things. In speaking of the pyramids, once, he asked, "who can inform us by what now unknown machines mass was thus aggregated to mass, and quarry piled on quarry, till solid granite seemed to cover the earth and reach the skies ?"' His peculiar love of the union of these States was partly due, perhaps, to this habit of mind- He felt that he wanted and required a continent to live in; his mind would have gasped for breath ia New Hampshire. PUT TO HIS STUMPS. . About forty years ago there lived in Western Pennsylvania two farmers named Wood and Osborne respectively.-. They were near neighbors, but inveterate enemies; and it is said they almost lived in sight of each other. Wood one day went out with a mat- toCk to dig up half a dozen stumps that had never yet been removed from his meadow ; but he -finding it pretty hard work, and, -moreover, not being very fond of work, he gave it up arid returned to the house.. On the way it occurr. ed to him that by a cunning device, he might induce his friendly neighbor to uproot the little annoyances. Acting on a bright idea that occurred to him, he entered his house, got his writing materials; and in a disguised hand, wrote : «*•--_« " Mr. Wood:—I am an old man, fast approaching my end, and I cannot go to my grave without revealing to you a seeret. When I was a young man I helped to rob your grandfather of a large amount of money. I and my partner in crime buried five thousand dollars of it under a tree in the meadow that now belongs to you. No doubt these trees have been cut down by this time, but the stumps may still remain. My companion was soOn after hanged for a murder he committed, and I was sent to jail: for highway robbery. I was but lately released; and I wish to do all I can to atone for past misdeeds, I send this letter by- a person who says he knows where you live, and he will throw it; into your house. •■ " A Repent ant Criminal" vMy. Wood sealed this bit of fiction, addressed it to-hinjjself, and when night came crept stealthily to Osborne's dodr4 opened it, tossed in the letter and ran as thong*h satan were after him. On reaching home he retired and slept soundly till'morning. When he rose he cast a glance toward his meadow and to his satisfaction, discovered that every stump in it had been dug up and pulled out by the roots. After breakfast he went to work and'piled them up ready to burn. . Imaeioe-Qsborae's bitterness of heart as he passed on his way to the village that morning, saw Wood thus, engaged, and knew that he had been duped by him.- MODEL TEMPERANCE HOUSE. A few years ago, when the Maine liquor law was in full force in Vermont-; Judge C, of . was en a journey. He stopped at a tavern in the town-of for the night. After supper the Judge asked the worthy landlord ' for a glass of gis;' The landlord said be was sorry he could not accommodate him. ' "I am obliged by law to keep a temperance house," lie said. , It was late, so the Judge could not go on that night, but told the landlord he would leave early iri . the morning before breakfast. The Judge was taken to a fine room; the landlord said : " I hope you will be comfortable." Theje was an open stove in the room where Judge C. found a bottle of brandy. He then went to his washstand and opened it; he found a bottle of gia, water, glasses, etc. The J udge after helping himselfj went down and told the landlord he would not leave early. After breakfast the next morning- Judge C. paid his bill, and said to the landlord : " I have been a great opposer of temperance houses, and I always refused to stop at one, but I like the.hang of yours, and will call whenever I come this way."' The landlord said:' " I am sorry I could not let you have some gin last evening; but the law is so strict, and my neighbors keep so close Watch, that I am obliged to keep a ' temperance house.' ? ■ " What is a Tare ?"—Many men, although not as exemplary as they should be in their own lives, are yet at much.pains to rear their -children coft rectly. The sentiment with them is; " do as I say, not as I do." Such a father (hot far from Cincinnati) is in the habit of- getting intoxicated, or on a " tare," rather often. He endeavors, however, to hide the fact from his children, "but-" little pitchers have long ears," and children. know more of what is going on than grown people generally suppose. - The evening this exemplary parent was hearing his little Johnny recite his Sunday school lesson. It was. from, the fourteenth chapter of Matthew^ wherein is related the parable of the malicious individual' who went about sowing tares, etc. " What is a tare ? " the parent interrupted to inquire. . Johnny hesitated.. Tell me, my son, what a tare is."- " You have had 'em," said Johnny, casting his eyes down and wriggling his foot. " Had "em," said the astonished parent, opening his- eyes rather white: " why,-what do you mean, Johnny?" " When you didn't come home for three days last week," said Johnny, " I beard mother tell Aunt Susan that you were off on a tare." The Sunday school lesson wasbrougkt to an abrupt close, and Johnny, who knew too much altogether to sit up any later, was sent oft' to bed. Masculine . Etiquette.'—Gentlemen walking should keep their hands in their pockets. It shows their figure to advantage, keeps their hands warrn and out of other people's pockets. In the afternoon congregate in front of hotels and saloons. Then upon ladies passing- set up an equine cachina- tion (translated horse laugh). Keep the centre of the sidewalk. By this means others in meeting you will know fvbich side to pass.; when they attempt it, step iri the same direelvo'ri with them. -This' affords an agreeable variety in a promenade. If you see a' rjerson on the opposite side of the street you wish bo inbefvep't, cry as loud as possible to "him, " Ho, Jones." Of course Jones will "Ho ! " and yon will show people that yam take a great interest in the fate of Joeest When turning a corner, walk rapidly, with your eyes in the opposite' direction. You may meet • somebody, and give them an opportunity to study astronomy by daylight. One of the best stories we remember referring to a stolen watch comes from a French source. In the pit of the old French opera,- One of the audience suddenly discovered that his watch was gone. The 'evening's entertainment had not commenced" and the owner of the property mounted a bench, stated the loss, which could not have occurred above two or three minutes, and begged those around him to remain- perfectly quiet, as his watch strucK th<: hours lixe a cIock, and it then being on the st-riice of seven, the watch would speedily indicate into whose possession it had .fallen. There was a dead silence; lmfc the. eye .of the proprietor detected an individual who was trying to edge away from the vicinity, and he immediately denounced tlie SKubxor as '■ the thief. The latter was seized,' and the watch was found upon him; and as the owner quietly put it into his; poCKet, he romanced: "The watch- does not striKe the hour, but I thought my assertion that. it-did would eUal'J*' me to striKe out the thief. It waS ah apt answer of a fair 3«oup-H ladv, who, being asxed where—-"*^ -**?£. native place, replied^*^. "on?;. * am the daiigh>-«T^Methodist minister." 1 ^^^

A recently approved project one block removed from San Francisco's "Postcard Row" in the Alamo Square Historic District illustrates the complexities of designing within a hypersensitive historic context. Brazenly marketed as the "painted gentlemen" to play off the world-famous "painted ladies" up the street, three contiguous single-family homes will replace a 1950s structure in a neighborhood celebrated for the "intense ornamentation" of its Victorian- and Edwardian-era homes. Plans for the trio were approved by the city's Historic Preservation Commission in March 2011, but only after a two-year, three-architect design-by-committee saga that tested notions of what is compatible and the limits of consensus building.
With the best of intentions, the developer solicited input from the neighborhood association, preservation organizations, preservation commissioners, and city planning staff—all seemingly at odds with one another. Neighbors pushed for exact Victorian replicas, while preservation professionals weighed in with their own spin on what would best fit into the neighborhood context.
Frederic Knapp, AIA, a preservation architect who consulted on the project, reflects on the project's tortured path: "When different stakeholders are working toward different goals, preservation requirements—which are usually narrowly defined—can be overshadowed in serial design critiques based on additional criteria that are hard to anticipate."
The design was refined, scuttled, and re-muddled, but in the end it could not satisfy everyone. The final iteration was described in the San Francisco Planning Department's staff report as "distinctly contemporary," but taking cues from the front gabled roof forms, projecting bays, and horizontal wood siding prevalent throughout the district. Approved over the muted objections of San Francisco Architectural Heritage and the Alamo Square Neighborhood Association, this cautionary tale underscores the importance of a clear design direction, ideally informed by historic district guidelines from a project's inception. It also points to the essential role of the architect in navigating, but not necessarily assimilating, the competing views of stakeholders when building anew within a historic setting.
Back to Basics
Historic districts give residents two rare and economically valuable assurances: that the very qualities that attracted them to their neighborhood will endure over time, and that they can safely improve their home without fear that their neighbor will undermine this investment with a new and inappropriate structure. Designation as a historic district helps to ensure that the most distinctive, historic, and charming qualities of the neighborhood will be preserved.
Preservationists cite studies from around the country that find higher appreciation rates in historic districts than in neighborhoods lacking that distinction, with price stability translating into longer owner tenure and enhanced neighborhood stability. This peace of mind makes historic neighborhoods more desirable, which can lead to speculation and intensified development pressures. New construction and additions within district boundaries are frequently, and understandably, subject to vigilant scrutiny by residents seeking to uphold the promise of living in a historic district.
Contrary to a well-worn trope about historic districts, new construction need not—indeed, should not—mimic the older buildings that surround it. A bedrock principle of the U.S. Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation, utilized by local governments in thousands of historic districts across the nation, provides that new construction within a historic district must be "differentiated from the old" and "compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment."
"Compatibility" requires more than similarities of massing or abstract references. What makes buildings from different eras and styles compatible is that they share the same underlying principles of space, structure, elements, composition, proportion, ornament, and character. This concept is broad enough to accommodate contemporary new construction, a design that more closely adheres to the relevant historical style, or something in between.
Simple enough, but achieving the right balance between old and new can prove to be elusive. The design process, skewed by competing views among clients, neighbors, and city officials, and tempered by financial considerations, can yield wide-ranging and sometimes controversial results. To limit imbroglios that can result from a lack of clear rules, many cities develop context-specific design guidelines for historic districts that describe the prevailing architectural styles and features that define a neighborhood's significance, and lay out parameters for alterations, additions, and infill construction.
In Los Angeles, the Department of City Planning works with residents to create a detailed "preservation plan" for each new historic district. The process allows neighborhoods to tailor design guidelines that respond to the needs and preferences of each community. Well-documented historic districts and design guidelines help avoid delays and neighbor-to-neighbor clashes by identifying protected features in advance, and by clearly defining the approval process for different types of projects.

OJAI -- The bottom of UCLA's lineup ensured the Bruins would end on top at the Pacific-12 Conference men's tennis championships Saturday night at Libbey Park, capping a strong day for the Bruins in the 113th annual Ojai Valley tennis tournament.
After losing the doubles point to rival USC and having Thousand Oaks graduate Marcos Giron fall in straight sets at No. 2 singles to Yannick Hanfmann, the top-ranked Bruins rallied with four consecutive victories, punctuated by Clay Thompson's 7-6, 6-4 triumph over Jonny Wang at No. 5 singles to secure UCLA's 4-2 victory and a sweep of the regular-season and tournament crowns.
"The last time we played them, we won at Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 5, so it was the exact opposite this time, but either way, I'll take it. This shows No. 6 is just as important as No. 1," Thompson said. "Ojai has always been a special place to me. I had lost to (USC's) Ray Sarmiento like 17 times in a row before I beat him here last year, so this place has always been good to me. I feel like I have a little luck going my way on these courts."
UCLA (24-1) lost to USC 4-2 in last year's final and suffered a 4-3 setback at the ITA Indoor National semifinals in February, but has since defeated the Trojans (23-4) three straight times outdoors.
Dennis Mkrtchian, a former SOCES standout, gave UCLA a 3-2 lead by defeating Eric Johnson 7-6, 6-4. Karue Sell and Adrien Puget also won in straight sets to spark UCLA's comeback.
The Bruins have a chance to add their championship run today with Kyle McPhillips advancing to the women's singles final, along with Courtney Dolehide and Pam Montez reaching the women's doubles title match.
McPhillips rallied to win the final five games to defeat Stanford's Kristie Ahn 3-6, 6-1, 6-4, securing a matchup today against Stanford's Krista Hardebeck, a 2-6, 6-4, 6-2 winner over Cal's Anett Schutting.
"I knew exactly what I had to do to fix it. It always comes down to my footwork and focusing," McPhillips said. "This means a lot to me. There are so many good players who have played in this tournament, so I consider it a real honor to play here."
USC's Kaitlyn Christian and Sabrina Santamaria will have a chance to defend their doubles title following an 8-4 victory over Stanford's Stacey Tan and Ellen Tsay. Dolehide and Montez defeated Lynn Chi and Schutting 8-6.
Christian and Santamaria fought off three match points in a 9-8 (6) opening-round victory over Chanelle Van Nguyen and McPhillips, but regrouped to roll in the quarterfinals and semifinals.
"Sabrina and I haven't really had one close match all year, but I have so much confidence in Sabrina and I know she trusts me. I knew what we were going to do (in the tiebreaker) because we play well under pressure," Christian said. "This means so much to us, so we're ready for anything."
Christian also advanced to the invitational singles final with a 6-2, 6-0 victory over UCLA's Skylar Morton. She will face Tsay -- who prevailed when Cal's Tayler Davis had to retire with an injury in the first set -- in today's title match.
"This is always my favorite tournament of the year, staying in housing, seeing all my friends from high school, I just love the atmosphere and it's always good to be in the finals," Christian said. "I always want to play as many matches as possible and this keeps my confidence high as we get ready for NCAAs."

Join us as we continue The Bible From 30,000 Feet, taking our thirtieth flight high above the book of Ecclesiastes. This book reveals some startling truths about how King Solomon felt about finding meaning and fulfillment in life through the things of this world, and ultimately his conclusion that "all is vanity" in a life lived without God. The key chapters to review are 1-3, 5, 8, and 12.
DESTINATION: Ecclesiastes 1-12
The book of Ecclesiastes records an intense search by Solomon to find
meaning and fulfillment in life. The main theme in Ecclesiastes is
"vanity." Solomon realized that all the things this world has to offer are
empty, that life's pursuits lead only to frustration, and that life apart
from God is meaningless.
Solomon reigns over the Unified Kingdom of Israel
The dating of this book is a subject of controversy. Some believe that Solomon wrote Ecclesiastes in the early years of his life, before he was swept away into carnality by his foreign wives. Still others speculate that he wrote Ecclesiastes in the twilight of his life, as a testimony of the futility of a life lived without God.
What is the meaning of life? At some point in life, everyone asks this question. The book of Ecclesiastes is a search to answer that question. Does fulfillment come through wealth, power, relationships, and wisdom? After tasting all that this world has to offer, Solomon concludes that life without God is meaningless. Ecclesiastes can be divided into three parts.

I always forget the words to this poem. So next year I'll write them on my shoe…IN SHARPIE!
Do you have your own version of this poem? Finish it in your own words!
Here are more VDay videos with Chicagoans expressing their thoughts on Valentine's Day:
These videos got me thinking… Sometimes Oftentimes, when I want to express myself (vocally) the words just aren't there. I get nervous or my head is racing with 1,000 thoughts; I want to say them all and it just doesn't come out how I had planned…I hate that! You know earlier I had it down perfectly and then afterwards I'm left thinking, "Brain, how could you do this to me? Of course NOW you're calm and collected.. Quit telling me all that I should have said " …so frustrating.
While I may not always be the eloquent speaker I'd like to be, I take the good with the bad and to be honest, I can write one heck of a letter! The words just come to me! Am I alone on this or can you relate? Expressing my true thoughts and feelings is easier for me in this respect. I'm not sure why but whatever the reason, the words just flow. They flow from my brain through my hand, right onto the paper (obviously the process is more complicated but I'm not talking science here).
So if you're like me, take advantage of Valentine's Day with the power of a pen (Sharpie pen of course) and paper. Take the opportunity to tell the people in your life that you love them and why you love them. Express yourself and don't let the day go to waste, despite your love or hate for VDay. I guarantee that you will enjoy it so much more if you express the love for those you care about.
Now let me end by asking you: How do you express yourself?

needs to beat a legit top 10 guy first.
him verses the winner of Kampmann/Condit would be good.
Sherdog.com - The number one MMA site on the web today!
Condit would run away from him and out point him you know its true lol.
Retired 2k and out.
Beyond that Condit has been a beast, look at the guys he has stopped. Brown has looked great, but look who he has been fighting. Condit would pick him apart standing & if he ever got in trouble could submit him.
Retired 2k and out.
Condit could do that to Diaz because Nick has very limited ability to cut off space. Brown is the exact opposite, his ability to herd his opponent is second to none. Condit would grapple with him, I would think.

As said its a opinion not trying to be a dick just saying how I see it.
Retired 2k and out.
look at condits fight with Hendricks, he went to fight against arguably the hardest hitter in the division. baby cakes is at it again. and if brown and condit hit the floor, condit subs him
He's on a good run granted, but it wasn't that long ago his streak was of losing fights. Pyle's a good name & that was impressive, the rest of his run isn't as stellar. Condit imo would pick him apart standing. He's stood with either guys who could bang like Hardy & Hendricks, can't see him being scared of Matt. Plus, as I said, if he gets in trouble he's light years ahead of Brown on the ground so always got that.
However a lot of this comes down to what people class as "running away". Against Diaz I thought Condit did a great job of striking & movement to throw Nick off his game. To others he was just back pedalling. Each to their own I suppose.

Post subject: I had to do another one....
I did two off-season possibilities; this is the second one .
Offensive thoughts
What I attempted to do was provide Tannehill a polished WR core that all run great routes and have very good hands. The combination of Jennings, Hartline, Bailey and Bess will provide 4 guys that Tannehill can feel comfortable getting the ball to. Last season you could tell that RT did not want to throw to anyone not named Hartline, Bess, and Fasano. My understanding of the offense is that you have very good options all over the field, not just one great option and several OK options. Reggie should be more productive in the offense with an improved O-line and more threats in a passing game. I like to potential of Robinson and his versatility and see him as a replacement for Bess in 2014. Tannehill will also benefit from an improved O-line .leaving Martin at his more natural LT position, signing Vazquez, and Vollmer and drafting Warmack should upgrade the line to provide the protection Tannehill needs to be effective.
Defensive thoughts
On the other side of the Ball I didnt want to make any more than one major move to the front 7. I like the idea of moving Odrick to the inside, hes got good size and a nice burst and should be able to still provide a bit of the pass rush. The biggest move is adding another DE (Johnson) to improve the pass rush which hopefully will force the QB into rushing throws leading to more picks. The defensive back field gets a complete overhaul. Jones is the only good player the Phins have back there and playmakers are needed desperately it they ever hope to slow QBs in the era of the passing game. Smith walks .as much as I dont think hes worth more than 5 million, some team will. I see Jenkins as a more affordable upgrade over Smith; a former 1st round pick that fell out of favor in Dallas. With that I hit the draft hard picking up a safety (Elam) and two CB (Wren-Wilson and Poyer) that should compete for a starting position and provide a very solid nickel.
Here we go
Reggie Bush
(RB) He wants to be in Miami, should be a decent value and is finally becoming the player many thought he would be coming out of USC. He could have Marshall Faulk type impact with improved line play and increased involvement in the passing game.
Brian Hartline
(WR) Hes not a number one, but he is very good, runs great routes, and catches anything thrown in his direction. Over the last season he became Tannehills go to guy and keeping players the young QB is comfortable with will continue to help his development.
Anthony Fasano
(TE)- Again this goes into keeping some players Tannehill is comfortable with and Fasano is one of those guys. Shouldnt be too expensive, blocks well, works hard and knows the offense.
Matt Moore
(QB) Vets that knows the offense I think most teams see him as a vet back-up and will realize that hes still not going to get his shot to start elsewhere.
Greg Jennings
(WR) Hes a vet with very good hands, nice speed and knows the offense. As with finding Tannehill guys he is comfortable with it is also imperative they bring in a vet that can adjust to what Tannehill is doing. Jennings appears to want to become a Dolphin and should. Wallace and Bowe may have more on paper, but Jennings has a certain je ne sais quoi that will make him a better fit and he does push-ups with a Jet-Ski on his back.
Louis Vasquez
(G) The line needs to be updated .there was holes and weaknesses especially at right guard. Vasquez should be a significant upgrade as he is a very good pass protector and extremely strong. Andy Levitre could be a possibility, but will be very expensive and most likely will get resigned by the Bills.
Michael Johnson
(DE) Will provide that complimentary pass rusher opposite Cam Wake. With moving Odrick inside (who also has decent pass rush ability the Dolphin vastly improve one of their weakest areas and make them one of the scarier team to drop back against (ello Brady!).
Sebastian Vollmer
(OT) Jake Long moves on and Martin takes over LT .How great would it be to take from the Patriots .especially someone who is very solid at RT on a team that has kept Brady pretty clean. Vollmer has had a Hartline like contract and will be looking for a raise .wont garner they type of money Long wanted and should be able to come in and shore up the right side.
Mike Jenkins
(CB) Compete for a CB position and provide solid depth has tons of potential. Was a starter in Dallas in 2011 (he was their best CB), but was replaced by Claiborn (after Jenkins injury kept him out). Still has solid ability and should be an upgrade over Smith and cheaper. Coyle turned Jones in a pro-bowl caliber player and could do the same with Jenkins.
Round 1
(12) Chance Warmack
(G) Easily my favorite player in the Draft this year and should come in and start at guard for the next 10 years and go to numerous pro-bowls.
Round 2
(42) Matt Elam (S)
Might go in the first, but Im crossing my fingers he drops to the Dolphins in the second. He is a force in the defensive backfield providing great ball skills and tackling. Another big play guy who can not only pick off passes, but is a ferocious hitter that can force fumbles.
(54) - Jordan Poyer
(CB) Good speed and excellent balls skills. Plays physical and has very quick feet. For a team that needs interception and turnovers (apple) they need to pick up a guy who can actually make those types of plays (7 INTs as a Sr./ 4 INTs as a Jr.)
Round 3
(77) Blidi Wreh-Wilson
(CB) Yes another CB .this group needs as many play makers as it can get especially facing the Patriots twice a year Wreh-Wilson provides another guy who could possibly start for the Dolphins. Nice size and athleticism that should be able to step in and make an impact.
(82) Stedman Bailey
(WR) Great in the slot and adds more playmaking ability to the offense. As much as I like Devon Bess and he is steady, hes very similar to Hartline where there isnt much that happens after the catch, Bailey scores TDs and this team needs WRs who get in the endzone.
Round 4
(TBD) Denard Robinson (WR/ATH)
Bess becomes a Free Agent next off-season and I see Robinson being his replacement. He was easily one of the 5 most dynamic players in college football the past few seasons. Picking a guy like him now allows him to learn WR and the offense without being asked to be a major contributor and eventually replace Bess next off-season. The ceiling is huge on a guy like him and not rushing him could be key to his development.
Round 5 thru 7: Depth and pro-bowl sleepers
(Im only listing reserve players how should contribute on a regular basis)
QB Tannehill
RB Bush/Miller
WR Hartline
TE Fasano/Clay
T Martin
C Pouncey
DE Wake/Vernon
DT Soliei
DT Odrick
LB Misi
LB Burnett
LB Dansby
S Jones
- Rookies
Free Agents
-Not sure if I overdid it on the Free Agency .may be too expensive
-I understand there are areas that still need to be addressed I think with the additions to the O-line, WR and with resigning Fasano that position should be serviceable and if needed be addressed next off-season.
-Yes I add a lot of WR, CB, and Lineman .these are the areas that needed the biggest change and did what I could to completely revamp those units.
-I understand I am taking a chance with Martin at LT, but I still think that year of experience and an off-season on improving strength and technique could improve him enough to be a good to very good LT.

I want to take a stab at this. I'll try to have it make sense money-wise:
Matt Moore
Jake Long
Randy Starks
Tony McDaniel
Free Agency:
Dwayne Bowe/Greg Jennings (whichever comes cheaper)
Any FA Gaurd (2)
Devon Bess for the best draft picks possible. He's been my favorite player since we got him, but he just doesn't fit our system. Someone has to need a solid slot guy who gives his everything. Hopefully we could get a 4th or 5th for him.
I would love to trade down from the 12 spot to build up this team around Tannehill. I'm not gonna list draft pick by pick because most likely we'll be moving around. Instead I'll list guys I like.
Keenan Allen WR, Cal - There aren't any crazy studs like Megatron in this draft but this class is deep and they are good. A few other guys could be the first WR we select and I'd be fine with that.
Tavon Austin WR, WVU - Yep, I want a free agent WR and at least two drafted. We're gonna be throwing the ball a whole hell of a lot obviously so let's make it look good.
Note: These are my two favorite WRs but I wouldn't mind any combo of a few that made sense ie, Robert Woods, Quinton Patten, Aaron Dobson, Markus Wheaton.
Desmond Trufant CB, Wash/Jordan Poyer CB, OregSt - I'm loving both of these guys more and more watching the Senior Bowl practices. We need improvement at corner and I think one or both of these guys could help.
Tyrann Mathiue CB, LSU - I know he's a headcase but he is a playmaker.
Vance McDonald TE, Rice - It's early and I can't stop watching the Senior Bowl, but for a late round guy I think he'd be perfect to coach up.
David Quisenberry OG, San Jose State - Kid looks like he's going to be a big time steal in this draft.
I think the main thing that the organization has to do this year is make a splash. The fans have been clamoring for something sexy and I don't think the Tannehill pick is what will satisfy them. I'm usually the guy that wants the O lineman that the casual fan has never heard of (I was a huge fan of both the Jake Long and Pouncey picks) but this year we need to address the biggest problem on this team, which for the second year in a row is the worst WR corps in the league. We need to draft at least two in the first three rounds and possibly sign a free agent. I could go on but I don't want to ramble and lose everybody.

This is why I wanted him (especially after seeing the size of his hands)....the guy is coming in to play WR only and he provides so many options as an athlete that he will instantly boost the big play potential of the Phins.

I agree. Say what you want about Shoelace Robinson, but he can move and he's a playmaker.....and that's what we need is some youth that has speed and makes big plays.

Well ViolentMonk you are getting closer to the mock thats been sitting on my desk the past two weeks. Its a good mock the first two rounds after that i would go in other directions. Your off season is solid but once again I have some differences. Overall nicely done.

With a WR class this deep I'd rather spend a pick on someone that's proven. I love Shoelace and have followed his career since Deerfield High but he still can't catch the ball despite having the 10 inch hands.

That's why it is a 4th round pick...
The guy is learning a new position after playing QB most of his life, but his intangibles, speed, and play making ability is too high to not at least take a chance on him later in the draft. Even if he runs bubble screens and quick slants for the first year he still has the possibility to turn those into big plays and TD's.

DECLO, Idaho (AP) — Students who did not meet their reading goals in a fourth-grade class in southern Idaho had their faces written on in permanent marker by those who did, with the teacher's permission.
Some parents say the effect on their children was humiliating and that some of the youngsters have learning problems.
District Superintendent Gaylen Smyer says students in the class read a set number of books over a certain period.
The Times-News of Twin Falls reports (http://bit.ly/S2oNii) the teacher allowed them to choose their own incentive to meet that goal. The students who fell short either would stay in at recess or have their faces written on.
Six students chose to have their faces marked and three missed recess.
Parent Cindy Hurst says she's not after anyone's job but she wants positive changes made at the school.

What Not to Get William and Kate: Highlights from Their 2011 Royal Gift List
A list of all the gifts William and Kate received on their 2011 overseas tours has been released. Just in case you were curious.
-Lucia Peters
It's unlikely that any of us will ever be in a position in which we will have to find a gift for William and Kate; but just in case it does happen, now you know exactly what not to get them. The list of gifts the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge received on during their 2011 overseas tours has just been released, so now we've all got a record of exactly what they do and don't have already. Because obviously you'd want to avoid giving them duplicate gifts.
The list, which has been posted on Prince Charles' official website (bet you didn't know Prince Charles even HAS an official website!) is a whopping 14 pages long, and believe you me, it's a doozy. It's divided up by location, covering New Zealand and Australia before moving onto Canada and the US. Want some highlights? Here you go:
– In New Zealand, William was given rather a lot of baseball caps; several entries on the list read, "selection of baseball caps," "four baseball caps," and the like. He also received a block of jade and a commemorative plaque. What exactly that plaque is commemorating, however, remains a mystery.
– In Australia, he got a bunch of sports jerseys, more hats, a cricket jacket, books and DVDs out the wazoo, a "soft toy" of some sort, a wooden mantle clock and trinket box, aboriginal art… and a jar of Vegemite. The jar of Vegemite is just listed as coming from an "individual," but really, I just want to know what inspires a person to give Prince William a jar of Vegemite.

– Moving on to Canada: Along with the usual mountain of books and DVDs, William received such creative gifts as a flying helmet, a Canadian Ranger Patrol knife, a tartan waistcoat, and (oddly) a ballpoint pen. I guess it must have been a really fancy ballpoint pen. Kate, on the other hand, received a number of hats to add to her collection, among them a ladies blue hat, a tartan fascinator, and a peacock feather fascinator. She also now has quite a sizeable collection of wicker flower baskets. Addressed to both of them were things like a framed facsimile of the First Treaty concluded between the First Nations of Canada, some hockey jerseys, a pair of cowboy hats, caribou antler snow goggles, newspaper cuttings (why? No idea), a framed musical score… and a box of mailed correspondence. What? Why? Whose mail is it? Who knows.
– The biggie in the US was an iPad given to the royal couple from the Governor of California, Jerry Brown. The Chief of Staff to the British ambassador gave them a teddy bear, and (I kid you not) the Santa Barbara Coroner's Office gave them a set of coasters.
They also now have enough scented soaps and hand towels to last a lifetime. I wonder what the royal policy is on regifting?
Check out the entire list here; you can also find the list of gifts given to Prince Charles and Camilla here.

Apple, Samsung Release Statements Following Court Decision; Microsoft Gloats
Brandon Hill

Want to guess which company is breaking out the champagne tonight?
jury reached a verdict today
and they found Samsung guilty on multiple counts of infringing upon Apple design and software patents. While Apple was able to hold Samsung's feet to the fire on the majority of its utility patents, Samsung received no love from the jurors on its countersuit claims.
The jury ordered Samsung to pay Apple $1,051,855,000 USD ($1.05B USD) in damages. Apple owes Samsung absolutely nothing.
Apple CEO Tim Cook [Image Source: Paul Sakuma, Associated Press]
Not surprisingly, both Apple and Samsung have issued statements to the
New York Times
regarding the decision. First up, Apple:
We are grateful to the jury for their service and for investing the time to listen to our story and we were thrilled to be able to finally tell it. The mountain of evidence presented during the trail showed that Samsung's copying went far deeper than even we knew. The lawsuits between Apple and Samsung were about much more than patents or money. They were about values. At Apple, we value originality and innovation and pour our lives into making the best products on earth. We make these products to delight our customers, not for our competitors to flagrantly copy. We applaud the court for finding Samsung's behavior willful and for sending a loud and clear message that stealing isn't right.
And now we have Samsung, which is clearly not pleased with the outcome of this case:
Today's verdict should not be viewed as a win for Apple, but as a loss for the American consumer. It will lead to fewer choices, less innovation, and potentially higher prices. It is unfortunate that patent law can be manipulated to give one company a monopoly over rectangles with rounded corners, or technology that is being improved every day by Samsung and other companies. Consumers have the right to choices, and they know what they are buying when they purchase Samsung products. This is not the final word in this case or in battles being waged in courts and tribunals around the world, some of which have already rejected many of Apple's claims. Samsung will continue to innovate and offer choices for the consumer.
And even though Microsoft had absolutely nothing to do with this trial (Microsoft can
safely sit on the sidelines
as a spectator), Bill Cox, senior director of Marketing Communications for Windows Phone,
added his two cents
in on the decision:
Considering Microsoft's current position in the
smartphone marketplace
, we're not quite sure it's "winning" in this case.
Updated 8/25/2012 @ 2:53am EST
has received an internal memo
sent to Apple employees by Apple CEO Tim Cook. In the memo, which features similar wording to the statement issued by Apple after the ruling, Cook describes how taking Samsung to court wasn't about the "patents or money":
Today was an important day for Apple and for innovators everywhere.
Many of you have been closely following the trial against Samsung in San Jose for the past few weeks. We chose legal action very reluctantly and only after repeatedly asking Samsung to stop copying our work. For us this lawsuit has always been about something much more important than patents or money. It's about values. We value originality and innovation and pour our lives into making the best products on earth. And we do this to delight our customers, not for competitors to flagrantly copy.
We owe a debt of gratitude to the jury who invested their time in listening to our story. We were thrilled to finally have the opportunity to tell it. The mountain of evidence presented during the trial showed that Samsung's copying went far deeper than we knew.
The jury has now spoken. We applaud them for finding Samsung's behavior willful and for sending a loud and clear message that stealing isn't right.
I am very proud of the work that each of you do.
Today, values have won and I hope the whole world listens.

"What would I do? I'd shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders." -- Michael Dell, after being asked what to do with Apple Computer in 1997

Barbara Jane Bennette
October 18, 2012
Barbara Jane Bennette passed away Tuesday, Oct. 9, 2012. She was 89 years old.
A Memorial service will take place at 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 20, 2012, at the Emmanuel Episcopal Church, 235 South Church St., Grass Valley, Calif. There will be a reception with food following the service.
Barbara was born in San Francisco Nov. 13, 1923, but grew up on a 500-acre ranch in Placerville, Calif. She has lived in Nevada City, Calif., for 50 years. She was a tennis champion at Eldorado High School in Placerville, Calif. Her hobbies included riding horses, golf, gardening and playing cards. She obtained her pilot's license in 1949. She was also a member of Nevada County Country Club. Barbara paved the way as a model woman for most of her life as a public servant. Besides being a mother to five boys and a wife to Robert S. Bennette for 60 years, she also served our country in the Navy Sea Bee's from 1944 until 1946. Then, when World War II was over and the Navy no longer needed her service, she volunteered to work in a supply depot in Okinawa, Japan, which included taking charge of several POWs. She married Bob Bennette (deceased) Nov. 4, 1949. They moved to Nevada City in 1963. Shortly after her arrival in Nevada County, she began serving the community as a secretary for Nevada County and worked her way up to become the first female county superintendent of buildings and grounds, serving us as a public servant for 20 years. She also served Grass Valley as the charter president of the Lady Lioness in 1985 and later as a member of Grass Valley Lions Club. Even at age 85, she answered the call to serve our county as a member of the Nevada County Grand Jury from 2009-10, chairing the Audit and Finance Committee.
She is survived by her sons, Bob, Steve and Don; 13 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren.
Barbara is preceded in death by her husband, Robert Bennette, and sons Douglas and Charles.

Canada 5 - Denmark 3
2006 IIHF World Men's Championship
RIGA, Latvia – Call it a positive learning experience for a young Team Canada at the World Hockey
The Danes are proof positive that the Canadians shouldn't take any of the so-called second tier opponents lightly. Canada's next game is Sunday against Norway.
'You get three quick goals against you and it gets their fans involved,' said head coach Marc Habscheid.
'You know that their guys are going to be excited about it: Team Denmark headed to the third period tied
with Team Canada.'
The game marked the debut for Sidney Crosby as a pro at the world tournament and the sensational rookie didn't disappoint. Playing on a line with Bergeron and Brad Boyes, Crosby was a catalyst throughout the game. In addition to Crosby's goals, Boyes had a goal and an assist while Bergeron added three assists.
" Me and Boyes played all year together (with the Boston Bruins), and me and Sidney Crosby] played
together at the (2005) World Junior Championships," Bergeron said. "We felt good together. But we hope
to get better every game."
'Both of them are phenomenal players,' he said. 'For me, it's a thrill to be with them.
Jeff Carter, Mike Richards and Jason Williams arrived in Riga just hours before the game and this allowed Canada to go with three full lines. Brendan Shanahan, Mike Cammalleri, Matt Pettinger and Brent Seabrook are all expected to join Canada prior to Sunday's game against Norway.
The teams scored their goals in bunches, as Canada got three in the span of 8:41 in the first period, and Denmark got three in 10:06 in the second period.
Three minutes into the third period, Crosby took a pass from Bergeron and rifled a wrist shot into the top corner of the net to make it 4-3. Canada got the insurance marker after Richards tapped a Jeff Carter rebound into an open net.
" We have some room to improve," said Crosby. "It is the first game of the tournament and there are a lot of things we have to work out. We want to keep going."
On paper, this should be a cakewalk for Canada, the defending silver medalist at the World Championship. But it would be foolish for the Canadians to get ahead of themselves. Denmark beat the United States 5-2 at the 2003 tournament and then tied Canada 2-2. The Danes have about a dozen players who play professional hockey in Sweden and Finland. They have been together for a couple of weeks and are a very cohesive group. The Canadians added Jeff Carter and Mike Richards of the Philadelphia Flyers and Justin Williams of the Detroit Red Wings and more reinforcements are expected in the next couple of days.
Players to watch:
Canada: Budding superstar Sidney Crosby has represented Canada at the World Junior Championships and he will be making his debut at the World Championship level. Crosby is coming off a sensational rookie season for the Pittsburgh Penguins. He set a new franchise rookie points record with 102 points (39 goals, 63 assists) to surpass Mario Lemieux's 100 points as a rookie in 1984-85. Crosby surpassed Dale Hawerchuk as the youngest player in NHL history to reach 100 points but he fell one point shy of Hawerchuk's record of 103 points as an 18-year-old.
Denmark: Frans Nielsen is one of the top young players in Denmark and he was the 87th overall pick by the New York Islanders in the 2002 draft. He played for Timra of the Swedish Elite League this season and is expected to be in the American Hockey League next season.
Prognosis: The Canadians should win this but the Danes won't make it easy for them.

Adam Jones drove in two runs, Bill Hall belted a solo homer in his Baltimore debut and the Orioles posted a 5-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays in the second portion of a three-game set at Camden Yards.
Hall had his contract purchased from Triple-A Norfolk before the game after the Orioles placed third baseman Mark Reynolds on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left oblique. The veteran utility player started in left field and his eighth-inning blast provided insurance for his new team.
Brian Matusz (2-4) gave up three runs -- two earned -- on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings to pick up the win, the third in four games for Baltimore.
"We're playing our own division right now so these are games that are really, really important, especially early in the season," said Jones.
Jim Johnson earned his 11th save of the season with a flawless ninth.
Luke Scott knocked in two of Tampa Bay's three runs, while Matt Moore (1-3) allowed four runs -- one earned -- on four hits and four walks in 4 1/3 innings to absorb the loss.
The Rays have dropped three in a row and six of seven overall.
Tampa Bay committed a club record-tying five errors, three of which came in the second inning. Jones reached on an errant throw by third baseman Sean Rodriguez and took second on a failed pickoff attempt by Moore. After Matt Wieters walked, Moore fanned the next two batters before Steve Tolleson slapped an RBI double down the left field line.
Wieters was able to score as well when the ball got away from Brandon Guyer, who homered in the top of the second.
The Orioles loaded the bases in the fifth and Jones grounded a two-run single up the middle to make it 4-1.
Tampa Bay trimmed its deficit to one in the next frame. Rodriguez extended his hitting streak to 10 games with a leadoff base hit and Jeff Keppinger stroked a one-out single before Guyer hit a grounder to third. Tolleson stepped on the bag, but his throw to first couldn't be reeled in by Wilson Betemit. The error kept the inning alive for Scott and the ex-Oriole delivered a two-run single to center field.
"To keep that game that close after making five errors, that just talks about the grind-out attitude of our boys and I love that," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "Normally when you make five errors you get blown out in that game and we did not get blown out. We had a chance to win."
Game Notes
To make room for Hall on the 40-man roster, the Orioles designated pitcher Brad Bergesen for assignment...Moore recorded six strikeouts, while Matusz fanned five...Tampa Bay was 1-for-7 with runners in scoring position and left five men on base.

Honey Trap
For sweet, vanilla-honey kisses
Our product inventors worked hard in the labs, experimenting with all sorts of different flavors before they landed on this seductive honey lip balm. Recently, they revisited the formula, mixing it by hand on lower temperatures to make it softer and more flavorful. Honey Trap is filled with toning sweet orange and cooling peppermint to soothe dry, chapped lips. Rich honey moisturizes and melted white chocolate is part of that delectable flavor. After all that chocolate tasting and kissing we did in the name of innovation, we think Honey Trap can certainly be considered our most delicious lip balm to date. It's a hard life we have here at LUSH.
MeltThis product may melt if shipped to a warm location.

After Hobby Lobby, These 82 Corporations Could Drop Birth Control Coverage
Hobby Lobby is about to get a lot more company.
Monday's Supreme Court decision in favor of the company and Conestoga Wood of Pennsylvania for refusing to pay for contraception in health insurance affects far more than the 15,000 employees between them. The Supreme Court's decision allows closely held companies (corporations with more than 50 percent of stock owned by five or fewer individuals) to opt out of the Affordable Care Act's contraception mandate. There are at least 80 other companies fighting to be the next Hobby Lobby.
Gretchen Borchelt, senior counsel and director of state reproductive health policy for the National Women's Law Center (NWLC), has been following similar cases for the past three years. She calls the Hobby Lobby decision disturbing—not for the least of reasons, how many other corporations it will affect.
"Other closely held companies now have a license to harm their employees in the name of the company's religion," she said. "If companies qualify, they can use this decision to make the same claim."
A number already have. More than 50 for-profit companies and 59 non-profits have been filed lawsuits against the ACA's contraception mandate. The majority of these rulings were stayed by courts pending the resolution of Hobby Lobby's case.
"After SCOTUS issued this decision, lower courts will apply that decision to these cases that they've been holding," said Borchelt.
Those that don't immediately get approval may simply move forward without it.
"Some of the plaintiffs who have existing cases have said they intend to stop fighting and simply use this decision as a victory," she said.
When asked whether those companies who haven't filed suit will be able to follow the Hobby Lobby decision, Borchelt sounded alarmed.
"It's unclear. There's no process in place. Technically they could." If they do, the national implications would be huge. Despite what "closely held company" sounds like, these aren't all small, family-owned businesses. As Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg noted in her dissent, candymaker Mars Inc., with 70,000 employees, qualifies as a closely held company. Cargill does too and it takes in more than $136 billion in annual revenue.
"It's impossible to predict how many more companies might want to take advantage of this decision," she says. For each of the cases filed in court, the NWLC estimates there are dozens more that hold the same beliefs, but haven't bothered to take it to court.
"We don't know how wide the scope is or how many companies will step forward," says Borchelt. "The Supreme Court claims it is trying to limit this decision, but it includes a huge swath of companies. It's not as limited as it appears."
Below is a full list of pending cases filed by companies, nonprofits, and universities challenging the Affordable Care Act's contraception mandate as of June 26. (*= Both Nonprofit + Profit cases)
