What does Alliance have that museums in Canada and Britain want? The answer is: "Brushes With War: Paintings and Drawings by the Troops of World War I," which is currently on exhibit at the World War History & Art Museum in Alliance. The display will only remain in town until April, however, as director and curator Joel Parkinson has announced he is taking the exhibit to a number of other museums, some of which are abroad, some in Canada, and some possibly in the U.S.
"Brushes With War" is a world-class collection of 325 original paintings and drawings, mainly created by the soldiers themselves, from the trenches of World War I. Parkinson reported on Friday the "Brushes With War" art exhibit will be touring major metropolitan and national museums in the U.S., Canada and the United Kingdom as the 100th-year anniversaries of World War I are marked, from 2014 through 2018. Farthest along are plans to take the "Brushes With War" art exhibit to one of the most prominent museums in Scotland.
"It has always been our intention to take some of the displays on the road, but we had hoped to be able to keep the museum open while we were traveling. However, it's just not feasible," said Parkinson.
During the last three years that WWHAM has been open, Parkinson said admissions at the door have only covered a fraction of the overhead costs. Numerous marketing efforts have not produced enough local interest to justify continued operations in Alliance. "On the other hand, there is substantial interest and demand for our exhibits elsewhere. About 86 percent of our patrons have come from outside Alliance anyway, so it makes sense to close WWHAM and take our exhibits on the road," Parkinson said.
As a result, the World War History & Art Museum will permanently close its doors to the general public on April 17. "It will be my job over the next three to five years to find homes for some of the displays and places to exhibit others," Parkinson added.
The World War History & Art Museum will be transformed into a service to design, develop and deliver exhibit content to other museums. In addition to touring "Brushes With War" abroad, plans are in the works to send several exhibits to other museums. Most notably, WWHAM is looking for a new home for its HO scale model of the Germans' 1944 2nd Panzer Division. With over 15,000 tanks, armored vehicles, trucks, artillery, motorcycles and men, it will be too difficult to move from place to place.
"If you want to see our original World War I art or our massive model of the 2nd Panzer Division, you will need to come to the museum before April 17. After that, the museum will be closed and these gems will be traveling to other venues," Parkinson said. He noted some of the displays may even be removed from the museum before April 17.
Parkinson said he has no regrets about opening the museum in Alliance three years ago. "I met interesting people and made some new friends. The patrons who have come through our doors have been uniformly pleased and impressed. And I landed two good book deals with Schiffer Publishing as a direct result of WWHAM. The intent was always to tour "Brushes With War" among other museums from 2014 to 2018. So WWHAM's collections will live on and be appreciated by even more people. All in all, it has been worth it. I especially want to thank those folks who have been supportive of WWHAM."
Other WWHAM exhibits include the outbreak of World War I, trench art, Hitler's aggression, tank warfare in World War II, women in World War II, aviation art by the pilots and airmen of World War II, the history of toy soldiers, and local contributions to the war efforts.
The World War History & Art Museum is located in College Plaza, 1300 E. State St., in Alliance. For more about WWHAM and its exhibits, hours and admission cost, visit www.wwham.com or call 330-829-3911.

The moon always carry my thoughts home. No matter how far away I had drifted, in body or soul. On a night like this, years ago in Beijing, we'd sometimes step out onto the street for a walk. The dinner dishes had been put away, and there would be a breeze that invite even the most languid member of the family - dad - to venture out.
Chess players and a crowd of onlookers would often line the street. Both sides - the players and the prospectors - observed the silent rules of mutual respect. But they would smack the cap sized pieces against the board to make a move, and the crowd would inhale sharply, as if finally letting go of the magic of suspense. Dad would sigh, exhale loudly before moving on.
The moon would glaze over us then, draping a silvery cape over our shoulders and backs. The old drum tower in the far corner would usually frighten me with its menacing black shapes, sharp corners and tall shadows. But on those nights with a bright moon and few clouds, its corners would turn a soft silvery gray, giving out an air of soft grandfatherly warmth.
And so tonight we walked on, imagining the world shrinking to the size of the patch of garden around us so we could be transported with the touch of a thought. London, Paris, Bangkok, or Rio. We walked into the quiet of the night, imagining the palpable stress weighing us down melting into a land farther than we can reach.
Then we saw, around dark and shadowy corners, a familiar warmth glistened in silvery sparks.

The sign of a good piece of writing is being able to imagine yourself there, and I can. I'm always pleased when I see you pop up in my blog roll. Lovely blog post.ReplyDelete
Yep, I was there with you too.ReplyDelete
Pretty piece.
Soothing piece. I could envision it clearly. Walks have such a wonderful way of clearing the mind and releasing stress from the body and mind, and the moon is such a mysterious, fun subject. I'm glad to read your words again this morning. :) :)ReplyDelete
Oh, I've missed your sensitive and beautiful tellings. I love this description: "But on those nights with a bright moon and few clouds, its corners would turn a soft silvery gray, giving out an air of soft grandfatherly warmth." That is such a lovely thought. :)ReplyDelete
Brilliant; I was also there with you.ReplyDelete
"The moon would glaze over us then, draping a silvery cape over our shoulders and backs." I loved this as I often swear, just as the sun, that I can feel the light of the moon on my flesh...ReplyDelete
Gorgeous and atmospheric--I was right there with you. Wonderful to see you writing once again! :)ReplyDelete
Beautiful writing with very poetic prose, I absolutely loved it.ReplyDelete
I can almost see the moon smiling down on you, wrapping you with a silvery shawl. You set my imagination in motion with this one.ReplyDelete
Thanks for putting up, very good stuff, It is pretty ideal for everyone.
Thank you!

Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb, R-Canandaigua, said today he plans no immediate action against Assemblyman Steve Katz, who was charged Thursday with marijuana possession and speeding.
Katz, R-Yorktown, Westchester County, didn't inform Kolb on Thursday after Katz was hit with the ticket on the state Thruway. Kolb told Gannett's Albany Bureau on Friday that he learned of the incident through the media. He said today that he did talk to Katz after being contacted about the arrest by Gannett on Friday.
"We had a good conversation, and certainly I think what Steve wants to focus in on is moving forward, representing his district and then he'll deal with the infraction through the legal process," Kolb told reporters.
Katz sits on several legislative committees, including the Assembly Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Committee. He receives a $9,000 stipend for serving as the ranking member on the Assembly Mental Health Committee. Lawmakers all receive a base salary of $79,500.
Kolb said he would let the legal process play out before deciding on any legislative punishment for Katz, who was first elected in 2010. Katz is due in Coeymans Town Court on March 28.
"I'll let the process take its own course," Kolb said. "I want to see what the result of all that is, in fairness to him."
Katz, meanwhile, was nowhere to be found at the Capitol so far today. He didn't go to his office this morning, and he missed a noon press conference with his Assembly GOP colleagues to discuss their opposition to extending an energy tax.
Katz's spokesman, Joseph Ahearn, said the assemblyman would have no further comment until his court date. In a statement Friday, Katz called it an "unfortunate incident" and that he would continue his work.
"I am confident that once the facts are presented that this will quickly be put to rest," Katz said in the statement.

End of life planning in regards to a patient deciding, with their doctor, is, of course a common occurence. End of life planning decided by a "panel" of people who will decide what procedures you qualify for is a whole other story to me. I want my medical decisions to be between me and my doctor, not a panel of people and a "commissioner."
If you're interested in an analysis of the facts involved in the conflict about end of life planning coverage, you can read it here.
If you're interested in the undocumented immigrants issue, you can read about it here.
Rather than say "this is what the Dems read" or "this is what the Reps read" and then shrug your shoulders and give up, I would think it would be more helpful to get the facts and make your own judgment.
Rheanna, you always say you don't belong to either party, and that you don't really have faith in either side.
So why does all the language you use to make your point ["death panels" being an example] come straight out of the Republican talking points?

Bishopswood WI
TWENTY-FOUR members attended the May meeting at Bishopswood village hall on May 9. The meeting opened as usual with Jerusalem . This was followed by the business meeting. It was explained that as this meeting was to discuss the WI resolutions, there was to be no speaker, but members would have their annual quiz. President Ann Jones told of events that were coming up.
Cicely Symonds then read out the resolution which was that the WI were to encourage everyone to carry a donor card and to support organ donation as 3000 people die every year for want of organ donation. She also explained that Alison Kinder, one of the group's members, was a recipient of a new kidney and had given a very good talk and insight into the problems faced by a person with a failing kidney. Members then voted on the resolution which was carried unanimously with two abstentions.
The minutes were confirmed as correct and signed. It was noted therein what a wonderful talk members had last month by speaker David Emerson on 'A life in professional theatre'. Many people wanted to know if he had a sequel to the talk.
Tea was served and then members settled down for the quiz. This was devised by Julia and Malcolm Brain. There was much rivalry and it was thoroughly enjoyed by all participants. It was won by The Laughing Cavaliers, second were The Kernels.
The next meeting is on June 13 at 6.30pm. This will be an open meeting and all visitors are asked to attend at 7pm. Cost for visitors will be £2. The subject is Hospice Angels, tales of fund raising on motorbikes. It promises to be a very interesting talk and the charity is St Michael's Hospice.

Chairman Anthea Lock announced several study groups to be held at Cirencester, Shrewsbury and Brecon during the summer. She paid tribute to Peter Ellis, retiring editor of the Knot newsletter, and appealed again to members for a volunteer replacement.
Deborah Jarman gave details of Leominster Museum's forthcoming exhibition Rifles and Spades to commemorate the First World War. David Hughes then described the skills and hazards of the slate mining industry in North Wales.
Despite arduous travel and working conditions the miners were known for their sense of humour, comradeship and love of music.
Twenty five local quarry brass bands competed for prestige, travelling to competitions as far as Manchester and London, one band famously entertaining Queen Victoria during a royal visit. The few remaining quarries still produce slates for roofing and gutters, fencing, gravestones, hardcore and a range of ornaments, while powdered slate is used in some cosmetics.
At the next meeting on June 17 Joy Ardy will speak on My Life in Teaching. Visitors welcome - £2.
High sheriff speaks for Vaga Probus Club
AT Vaga Probus Club's meeting on May 13, there was a talk by Major Patrick Darling on his role as the High Sheriff of Herefordshire.
Before explaining his role, Patrick gave a the membership and their wives a brief background to his earlier life and subsequent career in the Army and beyond. He was born in Perth, Western Australia, and raised in Northern Ireland, educated at Harrow, Edinburgh University and the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester, where he was awarded the Silver Medal as the best potential farmer.
He served as an officer in the15th/19th The Kings Royal Hussars, later the Light Dragons from 1981 to 1998 before moving to Sellack, Carradoc Farm near Ross-on-Wye, where he now farms. His army career included tours of Bosnia in command of a squadron during the Civil War and a military adviser to the former Swedish prime minister and high representative of Bosnia after the war. Patrick's interests are wide and varied and involve supporting a considerable variety of groups and organisations throughout Herefordshire.
He came across to the membership as a caring individual with strong Christian beliefs which manifested particularly while serving with the military in Bosnia where he did his best to create a path to peace between the Muslim/Croat/Serb populations.
Patrick continued by describing the history of the office of high sheriff, before answering the questions about his role as high sheriff. And indeed where do these fit in with the many other similar roles, for example, the police commissioner/lord lieutenant and members of the judiciary's role in society, as it is only natural that the general public could be somewhat unclear on the relationships of these multiple functions. In fact, with some members of the public, perhaps on a more humorous note, conjuring up images of the Wild West with six gun-toting sheriffs enforcing the law, Patrick explained in detail how these different organisations all work in unison for the good of all Herefordians, but again this equally applies to all the 55 high sheriffs serving the counties of England and Wales. The duties include attendance at royal visits in the county and support for Her Majesty's high court judges when on circuit, giving active support to the police and the emergency services, to the probation and prison services and to other agencies involved with crime prevention, particularly among young people.
The Probus Club president thanked Major Darling for his talk and all were most appreciative of the dedicated and demanding role he undertakes.

Students may complete a sequence of courses leading to Pennsylvania state certification to teach at the secondary level, complete requirements for certification in a fifth-year program or complete a minor in educational studies.
Jody Cohen, Senior Lecturer
Alison Cook-Sather, Associate Professor and Coordinator, Teaching and Learning Initiative
Barbara Hall, Lecturer
Alice Lesnick, Senior Lecturer and Director
Kristine Lewis, Lecturer
Program Coordinators
Ann Brown, Program Administrator and Adviser
Robyn Newkumet, Field Placement Coordinator and Bryn Mawr Adviser
The Bryn Mawr/Haverford Education Program is built around three mutually informing pursuits: the interdisciplinary study of learning as a central human and cultural activity; the investigation of the politics of schooling as a powerful source of personal and societal development; and the preparation of lifelong teachers, learners and researchers. Students who complete one of the Education Program options are prepared to become leaders and change agents in whatever professional and human activities they pursue.
The Bryn Mawr/Haverford Education Program offers the following options to students interested in education: students may (1) take courses that are open to all interested students, (2) pursue a minor in educational studies, (3) complete a sequence of courses leading to certification to teach at the secondary (grades 7-12) level in Pennsylvania as part of the four-year undergraduate program, or (4) complete certification requirements begun as undergraduates in a fifth year at reduced tuition.
The certification sequence and the minor are described below. Students seeking certification or wishing to complete a minor should meet with the field placement coordinator and adviser as early as possible for advice on scheduling, preferably by the sophomore year. Once enrolled in either program, students must meet with the appropriate adviser at preregistration time each semester.
Requirements for Certification
The Bryn Mawr/Haverford Education Program is accredited by the state of Pennsylvania to prepare candidates for secondary certification (grades 7-12) in 14 fields: biology, chemistry, Chinese, citizenship education, English, French, German, Latin, mathematics, physics, Russian, social science, social studies and Spanish. Pursuit of certification in Chinese, German, Latin and Russian is subject to availability of student-teaching placements.
Students becoming certified in a foreign language have K-12 certification. Certain interdisciplinary majors and double majors (e.g., romance languages, comparative literature, East Asian studies) may also be eligible for certification provided they meet the Pennsylvania standards in one of the subject areas listed above.
To qualify for a teaching certificate, students must complete an academic major (listed above), college distribution requirements and the courses listed below:
Furthermore, in order to comply with the Pennsylvania certification regulations, there are courses within the academic major that are required for those becoming certified. Again, students should consult with the program administrator regarding course selection and sequencing.
Students preparing for certification must take two courses in English and two courses in math prior to being admitted to the certification program and must attain a grade point average of 3.0 or higher. They must attain a GPA of 2.7 or higher in EDUC 200 (Critical Issues in Education) and EDUC 301 (Curriculum and Pedagogy Seminar) in order to practice teach. They must have received a positive evaluation from their cooperating teacher in Critical Issues in Education and be recommended by the director of the Education Program and the chair of their major department. (Students should check with the program administrator regarding admission to the certification program as requirements change periodically.)
Critical Issues in Education should be taken by the end of the sophomore year if at all possible. The Curriculum and Pedagogy Seminar is offered during the fall semester for seniors and must precede Practice Teaching.
Practice Teaching is undertaken for 12 weeks in a local school during the spring semester of the senior year. Note: Practice Teaching is a commitment to be at a school for five full school days each week for those 12 weeks.
Requirements for the Minor in Educational Studies
The Bi-College minor in educational studies is designed for students with education-related interests, such as plans for graduate study in education, pursuit of elementary or secondary certification after graduation or careers that require educational expertise. A variety of management and training positions, positions in research, administration and policy, as well as professions in social work, health and law, involve using skills as an educator and knowledge about education. Because students interested in these or other education-related professions major in different subject areas and have different aspirations, they are encouraged to design a minor appropriate both to their major area of study and to their anticipated futures.
All minors in educational studies must consult with the field placement coordinator and Bryn Mawr adviser to design a coherent course of study that satisfies the requirements below:
The Portfolio
To synthesize their work in the minor or the certification program, students create a portfolio. The portfolio draws on the work students produce in their courses as well as in their other activities (volunteering, summer programs, community work, etc.); it serves as an ongoing forum through which students synthesize their studies. The portfolio is developed over the course of the student's college career and is completed in the Field Work Seminar (minor) or the Practice Teaching Seminar (certification). The portfolio consists of a series of artifacts, each accompanied by a one-page analysis of the significance of the piece of work.
Title II Reporting: Title II of the Higher Education Act (HEA) requires that a full teacher preparation report, including the institution's pass rate as well as the state's pass rate, be available to the public on request. Copies of the report may be requested from Ann Brown, program administrator and adviser, by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com or phone at (610) 526-5376.

White nationalist organization the National Policy Institute (NPI) recently held their 2011 national conference, and Brian Powell from Media Matters was there to cover it. While listening to post-apocalyptic plans for a white "ethnostate" and endorsements for recreating apartheid in American towns, Powell runs into a contingent of members from the Asatru Folk Assembly during lunch. "I nodded reluctantly and the four well-groomed white males smiled politely and sat down.

My neighbor was a biker, a pusher, a dog
and wife beater.
In bad dreams I killed him
and once, in the consequential light of day,
I called the Humane Society
about Blue, his dog. They took her away
and I readied myself, a baseball bat
inside my door.
That night I hear his wife scream
and I couldn't help it, that pathetic
relief; her again, not me.
It would be years before I'd understand
why victims cling and forgive. I plugged in
the Sleep-Sound and it crashed
like the ocean all the way to sleep.
One afternoon I found him
on the stoop,
a pistol in his hand, waiting,
he said, for me. A sparrow had gotten in
to our common basement.
Could he have permission
to shoot it? The bullets, he explained,
might go through the floor.
I said I'd catch it, wait, give me
a few minutes and, clear-eyed, brilliantly
afraid, I trapped it
with a pillow. I remember how it felt
when I got my hand, and how it burst
that hand open
when I took it outside, a strength
that must have come out of hopelessness
and the sudden light
and the trees. And I remember
the way he slapped the gun against
his open palm,
kept slapping it, and wouldn't speak.

Saving APR requests in replay_arp-1112-031550.cap
You must also start airodump to capture replies.
Read 39123 packets (got 0 APR requests), sent 0 packets...
You are not capturing a arp request. Some times with the -3 attack it can take a long time to get a arp request. there are two more attacks to try the -4 and the -5.
why not capturing arp request ?
Because WG311T card not support or accesspoint block or another ?
I actually have the exact same card - it works great.
Is it in monitor mode?
airmon-ng stop ath0
airmon-ng start ath0
If you are trying to crack an AP w/o any connected clients, obviously you won't get any traffic, let alone ARPs.
Use the fragmentation attack and get the prga key... Then make an arp packet with packetforge and send it using aireplay again.

The Latest on Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen's testimony to the Senate Banking Committee (all times local):
10:50 a.m.
Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen says that the Fed does have the power to remove directors of banks, but she did not give a specific commitment to do so when pressed on the issue by Sen. Elizabeth Warren.
Warren, D-Massachusetts, wants to see the directors of San Francisco-based Wells Fargo replaced.
Warren pressed Yellen by saying that the Wells Fargo board of directors had failed to halt improper practices at the bank that involved thousands of employees creating fake accounts.

David and Michelle Haisley of Fort Wayne, Ind., weren't happy with the performance of their retirement funds, so they made another investment—a foreclosed home for $27,000. David, a heating and air-conditioning technician, worked on the house before it went into default, then decided to make an offer when he saw it listed at about a third of the price of surrounding homes. The Haisleys found tenants for the house, who pay $900 a month, giving them an annual return of more than 20 percent. They plan to buy another foreclosed home if they can find the right deal. "It's an income stream for us, and when it's time we'll sell it and make more money than we could from our 401(k)," says David. "There's nowhere for prices to go but up, so it seemed like a pretty safe bet."

Things will not calm down, Daniel Jackson. They will, in fact, calm up.
—Teal'c of Chulak
Teal'c - the proud Jaffa warrior, now available looking larger than life!
The first in a new line of "hero-sized" animated maquettes, Teal'c is sculpted as we first meet him in the Stargate SG-1 pilot episode "Children of the Gods." The First Prime of Apophis is deeply troubled by what he has seen and done in his god's name. That's why, when the humans of the Tau'ri (Earthlings) arrive on the scene, Teal'c rejects a life of obedience to rebel against his master and all Goa'uld.
The hand-painted Teal'c maquette comes posed in full armor and holding his Jaffa staff weapon, a look of defiance captured in this animation-style statue. He comes standing on a base that is a miniaturized, screen-accurate Stargate replica.

Cardinals swing past Drillers, 4-2
By Springfield Cardinals | May 14, 2013 7:49 PM ET
Tulsa, OK - The Springfield Cardinals topped the Tulsa Drillers, 4-2, before 4,520 fans at ONEOK Field on Tuesday night.
After RHP Seth Blair (W, 2-3) and RHP Christian Bergman (L, 2-2) alternated three scoreless frames, the Cardinals (20-16) jumped in front in the top of the fourth inning. 3B Ruben Gotay led off with a double, followed by a bunt single from LF Chris Swauger to put runners at the corners. After a strikeout, SS Jake Lemmerman launched a three-run home run over the left field wall, swinging Springfield in front, 3-0.
Tulsa chipped away in the fourth and fifth frames. With two down in the fourth, LF Kyle Parker drove a solo home run over the right field wall to get the Drillers on the board. 1B Kiel Roling then led off the fifth with a solo shot of his own, bringing Tulsa within one run, 3-2.
However, Blair tossed a scoreless sixth and RHP Deryk Hooker dealt a scoreless seventh, before the Cardinals padded the lead in the eighth. Leading off the frame, CF James Ramsey hammered a solo home run to right field, stretching the advantage to 4-2.
Hooker logged a scoreless eighth, and then RHP Michael Blazek (S, 7) slammed the door in the bottom of the ninth, closing the 4-2 win for Springfield.

Headline of the week
"Al Franken stole the election? Prove it or shut up" [1]
It's from Joe Conason's piece in Salon:
These [right-wing] media figures, some of whom occasionally pretend to be journalists, have spewed such accusations repeatedly, without offering any proof whatsoever -- in plain contradiction of the available facts. Not only is there no evidence that Franken or his campaign "cheated" in any way during the election or the recount, but there is ample reason to believe that the entire process was fair, balanced and free from partisan taint.

The Fray rocked last weekend's Mile High Music Festival, but that's not all the Denver band's been up to.
The Colorado group recently visited "Rolling Stone's" offices in New York and played an acoustic set — including the new single "Say When."
On Friday night's new VH1 countdown, the song was just bubbling under the channel's Top 20 videos.
In more Fray news: Joe King has been working with this season's "American Idol" winner Kris Allen on his debut CD.

Customer Feedback:
""I have been using Autumn-SavATree for the better part of a decade now and have been so delighted with the people I have come in contact with.
Michael Provost was the man who first came to our property years ago and assured us that we could save many of our trees that were lacking in care when we bought the house. Since using Autumn-SavATree, our trees have never looked healthier or happier. Michael assured us that we could do a lot with a rather large evergreen tree in our front yard that was initially suffering from lack of water and trimming. The evergreen now is probably the most gorgeous evergreen in the subdivision. My Pin Oak is 30-40 feet in the air now and is the talk of the neighborhood every fall when the canopy turns red and orange. It is so very healthy that my landscaper has to come extra late in the season to pick up the leaves that it drops. Michael has always been there to answer my questions quickly and professionally. We appreciate that.
On the 14th of this month, we had the oil treatment applied. Your specialist, Jerry, was here at 8:10 am and informed us that he would be spraying. He was so very courteous and did one of the best and most thorough jobs for this application that we have ever had.
Please be aware that you have two wonderful people in your employ, Michael and Jerry, and we look forward to working with them both in the future. "

This group, ranked the 19th-best recruiting class by pre-eminent wrestling news source InterMat, has won a combined eight state championships in high school, earning titles in Ohio, Oklahoma, New York, Massachusetts and Alabama.
Five of the wrestlers are ranked in the top-30 nationally in their respective weight classes, including one, Kyle Cowan, who is ranked No. 1 at 215 pounds. Cowan finished his high school career 125-0 over three varsity seasons in Oklahoma with three state championships.
"We are excited to add these eight quality individuals to our program," Eiter said. "They have all worked tremendously hard both on the mat and in the classroom to give themselves an opportunity to compete for the University of Pennsylvania. They have all had high levels of success both at the state and national levels. We look forward to them continuing that progression while at Penn."
Projected 174/184 pounder Zach Agostino comes to Penn from Egg Harbor Township, N.J. where he competed at 171 pounds. He is a three-time District 32 champion and the 2009 Region 8 champion for Egg Harbor Township High School. This past season, Agostino finished sixth at the New Jersey State Championships and ended the season ranked 30th at 171 pounds.
Trenton, N.J. product Canaan Bethea finished second in New Jersey at 171 pounds this season for Trenton Central and earned a No. 12 ranking at that weight nationally from InterMat. Bethea finished 32-1 in his senior season and 134-14 for his career. Those 134 wins set a record in his county for a public school wrestler. Along the way, Bethea became just the third wrestler in Mercer County history to win four county tournaments. He was a three-time District 25 champion and won the Region 7 title in 2010. Recently, Bethea placed fifth at High School Nationals.
Making the trek to Philadelphia from Spain Park High School in Alabama is 2010 Alabama state champion at 135 pounds, Geoffrey Bostany. In 2009, Bostany was runner-up at the state championships. He projects to slot in at 125 for the Quakers after a senior season that saw him finish with a 50-3 record.
Kyle Cowan, a Tulsa, Okla. native, was the No. 1-ranked high school wrestler at 215 pounds in the nation this past year according to InterMat, and the 24th-ranked recruit in any weight class. He earned that distinction with his third-consecutive undefeated season at 215 pounds, finishing with a third Oklahoma state title after a 41-0 season for Cascia Hall Prep. His three-year record in varsity competition was 125-0. He is projected to compete at heavyweight for the Quakers.
Another upperweight wrestler joining the Quakers is Steven Graziano from Syosset (N.Y.) High SchooL. A district placewinner in the Empire State, Graziano placed sixth at the prestigious Super 32 tournament at 215 pounds, defeating the fifth-ranked wrestler in the country along the way. He is projected to compete at either 197 or heavyweight for the Red and Blue. Throughout his career at Syosset, Graziano had his hand raised at the end of a bout 105 times.
Also joining the Quakers in the fall of 2010 will be Buchanon, N.Y. native Andrew Lenzi. The fourth-ranked 135-pounder in the high school ranks at the end of the season (and third senior), Lenzi is the 65th-ranked recruit across all weights according to InterMat. While at Fordham Prep, Lenzi won two state championships, in the process becoming the first Catholic League grappler in New York history to win multiple state championships. This past spring, he claimed his second title with a win over the wrestler who holds New York's record for most wins in a career. Lenzi finished his high school career with a 167-15 record and projects to start his career at 141 pounds for the Red and Blue.
A Needham, Mass. native, Jordan Michelson is another state champion headed to Penn in the fall of 2010. He won the Massachusetts crown at 140 pounds in 2010 with an undefeated 50-0 campaign. He followed that up with a win at the New England Championships and a 4-2 record at Senior Nationals. The Needham High School product had 133 wins over his varsity career.
Another state champion making his way to University City is Brad Wukie from Ohio. The University School product won a Division II state championship at 160 pounds this year and projects to 165 pounds when he takes the mats for Penn in the fall. He ended the season ranked 16th in the country at 160 pounds by InterMat. Over his career at the University School, Wukie finished second, fourth and fifth at the state championships to go with his title, and compiled a record of 143-28. In 2009, Wukie finished third in the Freshman/Sophomore bracket at the Michigan State Open, competing against - and defeating - wrestlers already in college.

text: MOSCOW, Nov. 12, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yandex's mapping service Yandex.Maps has seen a major revamp. Russia's most popular mapping service now runs on a unified platform, which allows the company to support and update unlimited amounts of data without relying on external sources. In addition, Yandex.Maps now features detailed maps supporting the route planning feature for the majority of large cities in the world. The new Yandex.Maps is available both on desktop and mobile. "This update is the result of eighteen months of work. We realised a long time ago that depending on external date providers wasn't a good idea and that we needed maps of our own. Moscow was the first city to be mapped by our mapmakers in 2011. Today, we are offering our own detailed maps of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan, seamlessly joined with the detailed maps of other countries, provided by our partner, so that the Yandex.Maps users can easily 'travel across borders'. What we needed to do wasn't just unify all maps, but also set up storage capacities and design a procedure for quick processing of all data for the world map, so we completely rewrote the service's core. In addition, we've built our own software to quickly edit our maps. Digital maps require fast and regular updating and the currently available commercial products couldn't handle our loads," says Maria Orlova, head of GIS data at Yandex. "Now, Yandex is a mapping company of a different scale." The updated Yandex.Maps covers the majority of countries in the world. The maps of the European and North American countries have the highest level of detail down to the major streets and buildings and the detailed intercity road network. Yandex.Maps also offers route planning, both in the cities and between them. Our users can now easily plot driving directions from Saint Petersburg to Kotka in Finland, or from Paris Charles de Gaulle airport to the Spanish coast.
