Aberdeen, Scotland (UPI) May 21, 2013
British researchers say they've solved the puzzle of why penguins can't fly: Their survival hinged on swimming underwater not soaring in the air.
A study of seabirds closely related to the penguin has convinced the researchers a wing designed for flight cannot also be good for diving and swimming, they said.
They examined a close relative of the penguin, the guillemot, a black-and-white seabird not only looks a lot like a penguin, it can swim nearly as well.
And unlike the penguin, it can also fly -- but poorly, the researchers said.
That constitutes a 'biomechanical hypothesis' of why some birds eventually become flightless, John Speakman from the University of Aberdeen said.
"When the bird is flying and diving it has to use its wings to do two different things," he said. "The biomechanical hypothesis is that you cannot build a wing that is good at doing both."
"These birds [guillemots] have these very short wings and they have to beat them at an incredible speed to stay in the air. It is exhausting for them."
Guillemots represent a tipping point between seabirds that are able to both fly and swim, and those that are flightless, Speakman said.
At some point in penguin evolution, the species would have faced a tradeoff between flying or attaining agility when diving and swimming, he said.
"At some point it became so 'expensive' for them to fly, that it was better to give up flying altogether and make the wings into small flippers," he said.

Here's Peter Attia's statement of the Alternative Hypothesis: "Obesity is a growth disorder just like any other growth disorder. Specifically, obesity is a disorder of excess fat accumulation. Fat accumulation is determined not by the balance of calories consumed and expended but by the effect of specific nutrients on the hormonal regulation of fat metabolism. Obesity is a condition where the body prioritizes the storage of fat rather than the utilization of fat."
The CICO proponents all too often fail to understand what they're arguing against. Give this a shot: Do calories matter? � The Eating Academy | Peter Attia, M.D. The Eating Academy | Peter Attia, M.D.

I am on a journey of self-discovery after two life changing experiences in one year confronted me with mortality face to face. I have come to, or at least I am beginning to belive in some degree of synchronicity of how life unfolds.
I thrive in tolerant, accepting and loving environments where arts, music, dance, love and community are central. I am resuming my passion for music making, I collect and play different instruments, and I am now learning the bass guitar (Golden Slumbers is my favorite now, since I dedicate it to my beloved sister now in the ICU). I love people, their stories, and connecting with what makes the hearts soar, their inner goodness and wisdom.
I strive to have strong, unique and deep connection with people, from the inside out or the outside in, in whichever way the dance of life flows. I like to stay away from boxes, labels, loaded words, and limiting stories about who we are together. I enjoy contact improvisation dancing, poetry, music and the whole range of beauty that life as evolving human beings offers. I am open to possibilities and enjoy the vitality that awareness, freedom, kindness and honesty brings to a connection with someone, as it unfolds.
I am also the father of a 19 year old young woman who is the apple of my eye. I love discovering her more and more as she reveals herself as the person she wants to be in the world. She is away in school and I miss her and use any opportunity to spend time with her. Her mother and I split up over a year ago and we have an increasingly amicable relationship.
I am involved in an loving intentional relationship and moving in with a woman who understands, loves and embraces who I truly am, with my need to seek and maintain interconnectedness among my fellow humans and non-human who form my circle of love. She is a spiritual comrade along our paths, we have a tantric relationship and I delight and fall in love with every moment that we put into each other with intention and discovery. I fall in love easily and she understands that.
Keeping multiple romances is not within the range of my possibilities right now. I have lots of room in my heart for loving, cuddling friends with whom I dance and make music, or simply cuddle and open up. Sexual experimentation from a place of sharing our love, available energy and fun might be the way to go for us eventually, checking in with each other to make sure we are on a similar learning curve and comfort zone. Right now we are simply putting out energy in our new life together and the intensity of discovering each other moment to moment. That takes energy, time and dedication, so we tend to be the focus on each other a lot of our time.
I like to keep growing in all areas of life that matter to me, and this area matters to me. Exploring, connecting, going with the flow, cooking tasty and creative veg meals. Like to really discover people for who they are inside and listen to their stories. Having connected, long and engaged emotional, artistic, philosophical, political and spiritual discussions, and appreciating the most ordinary of moments.
Poetry, Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Chris Hitchens, Tolkien, Khalil Gibran, Kissing the Sunshine Pig, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, the Kite Runner (cry each time I think about it), Pablo Neruda, Walt Whitman, T. S. Elliot, Robert Foster and Leonard Cohen's poetry. Isabel Allende, Garcia Marquez...mmmh, so much more I cannot remember.
Movies: Happy Feet, Up, Toy Story (I love Pixar and good animations with humour and humanity in it). Delicatessen, Amelie, Francois Truffaut (spelling may be wrong), French film, oldies, Local Hero, Pricilla Queen of the Desert, Departures, Billy Elliot, Lord of the Rings, Everything Illuminated, The Station Agent, Pedro Almodovar, Manon of the Springs, Jean de Florette, Y tu Mama Tambien, Sex and Lucia, All about my mother, Volver, and so, so many more. I love film. Will Farrell makes me laugh even when he is being serious. I identify with his wackiness.
Shows: Bored to Death, Game of Trhones, Dr. Who, Pillars of the Earth, Seinfeld re-runs. Not a TV guy. I am a late convert to Game of Thrones, Fringe, and Boardwalk Empire. Some of these shows kick ass and scare me at the same time.
Music: David Bowie, Marc Almond, Talking Heads, Francoise Hardy, old Sinatra, Tony Benet, Ella Fitzgerald, The Beatles, Schubert, Chopin, Liszt, Ravel, Debussy, Bach, Vivaldi, Mozart, Monteverdi, Handel, The Stones, Crosby, Still and Young, Leonard Cohen, Middle Eastern, East African, Flamenco. The Doors (would have slept or at least cuddled with Jim Morrison), Led Zeppelin (yes, I would sleep with Robert Plant, even now), James Brown, Johnny Cash, Joe Cocker, Jimmy Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Soft Sell, The Animals, Queen, Yes, Edith Piaf, Janis Joplin Charles Aznavour, and so much, so much more.
Food: Vegetarian: South Asian, Ethiopian, Southern France, Persian, Moroccan, Italian, And Peruvian, Rasta food, some French Canadian and First Nation foods. Seasonal food. Making the best of what is available fresh and local.. I love all vegetarian food when well prepared. I am mostly veg except when I visit my mom by the Chilean coast and she invites me to eat fresh fish by the rocks where the waves break. I also indulge in Peruvian food which includes ceviche and other fish items, but quite seldom. I know, ethically it may be a contradiction...and willing to live with it......I love cooking and eating with love for the people around me, my body, fellow evolving beings, and mother earth. I do not claim to get it right each time !!
The future of mother earth and her fruits (including us).
Social justice and a way to serve it.
Music, connectedness, those whom I cherish in life.
My 19 year old daughter studding in Kingston and how much I miss her.
I collect rare musical instruments, especially bagpipes (which I was trained to play by a wonderful recording artist) and exotic wind once per day for something that may trigger itI can get a high from Bach, Mozart, or Led Zeppelin. I have a Seinfeld reference at least daily. It may get stale, since the show is from over 20 years ago now.

Peterson returned to Norman, Okla., over the weekend to conduct a fundraiser for his All Day Foundation. After the event, he sat down with Dean Blevins, sports director of OKBlitz.com, a website devoted to Sooners athletics. The full 12-minute interview can be heard HERE.
Peterson isn't sitting idly by during his down time in the offseason. He is going to Uganda to do missionary work starting March 15. He will be joined on the trip by NFL players Tommie Harris, Roy Williams and Mark Clayton – all greats with the Oklahoma football program.
When asked about giving of himself for charity endeavors, Peterson said he realized in his teen years that he had the chance for a special life and, from that point on, felt like giving back.
"I've always dreamed about helping others," Peterson said. "That's what it's all about."
Peterson also spoke candidly about his father Nelson. He said that, even when his father was going through hard times and spent time in prison, they remained very close. The interview also dealt with subjects like how he would assess his career in the NFL to date and what it feels like to be role model.
For a player of his stature, it would natural to accept that Peterson deserves some time to himself, but that isn't how the Vikings running back is wired. There is no offseason when it comes to being a humanitarian.
One thing you can say about Sharp: he doesn't lack for confidence in his skill set. Considering his postseason press conference in which he said the Vikings Cover-2 defense hindered his playmaking ability, he would seem to have changed his tune.

By Dan Gillmor - Today, I cannot imagine why a parent – or school – would buy any encyclopedia in book form. That's why my only surprise at hearing that Britannica will no longer be printed is that the decision took so long to make.
It's not the only overdue cessation of a print product, of course, but a genuine milestone in the history of shared human knowledge. Yet, as the company is telling journalists, this is not a death knell for the wealth of knowledge it has accumulated. The company has been moving more and more online, and shifting its business model; it will be fascinating to see how that material moves forward in this digital era.
The printed Britannica's days have been numbered for well over a decade, and it's not Wikipedia that foretold its demise. The credit more properly goes to Microsoft's pioneering Encarta, a CD-Rom product the software company launched in the early 1990s and maintained until 2009 in several formats including, late in its life, a web version.
Encarta wasn't as good as Britannica. It didn't have to be. It was good enough to become a useful reference aid to countless people.

Alaska's Iditarod Trail challenges Unity couple
During her fifth trek across the Alaskan wilderness, Loreen Hewitt said her biggest challenge wasn't the 30-below-zero temperatures or whipping winds, but her stomach.
"My motto was not to get upset about anything that happened the first week," she said, unsure if her body had trouble adjusting to the exertion of pulling the 30- to 40-pound sled with supplies or her change in eating habits during the 1,000-mile Iditarod Trail Invitational.
Despite that, the 57-year-old Unity woman traversed the length of the race in record time: 26 days, 6 hours and 59 minutes.
The trail follows the path of the famous sled dog race, over the Alaskan Mountain range with a 350-mile leg from Knik to McGrath, then continuing on to Nome.
This was also husband Tim's eighth 1,000-mile finish.
"She had the mental resolve — I don't think she ever thought about quitting — but it was a physical challenge," said Tim Hewitt, 59.
While her husband normally trudges ahead and each goes at their own pace, this year they decided to stick together, which may have contributed to Loreen Hewitt's record-breaking time on the trail completed March 21.
"I just decided to stay with her, and it paid off," he said.
Without enough snow, a 40-mile swath of the trail was extremely difficult to pull across, while many sled dog teams were going too fast, causing injuries and crashes, Loreen Hewitt said.
Dogs started March 1. The foot race began Feb. 23.
During other parts of the race, the Hewitts had to contend with freshly fallen snow and to work harder by using snowshoes.
"When I'm out there, I'm doing 100 percent of what I can at the time," said Loreen Hewitt, adding that having Tim by her side pushed her more with shorter-than-usual rest periods. "He helped me as much as he hurt me, I think."
He agreed, adding that his wife finished with a faster time than his first trek in 2001.
"She pushed pretty hard," Tim Hewitt said.
And for that she was rewarded as the third woman ever to complete the 1,000 miles across Alaska, even though there is no cash prize.
"It's an unbelievable state. I just was really happy to do it," she said. "It's like anything else hard: The more time passes, you look back on the positive things."
Loreen Hewitt has entered for the 350-mile leg next year and plans to "take (her) sweet time," but won't continue on to Nome.
As for Tim, he's toying with the idea of trying the race by bike instead of foot next year.
"The race wasn't tougher than I thought it would be, it was harder on me than I thought it would be," Loreen Hewitt said.

There is arguably no treatment in cosmetic dentistry as versatile and transformative as porcelain veneers. At our San Diego dental practice, Scripps Center for Dental Care, our cosmetic dentists routinely use porcelain veneers as the foundation for the most dramatic smile makeovers, creating bright, vibrant, flawless smiles that look completely natural. In terms of their durability and realistic appearance, porcelain veneers are simply unmatched among cosmetic dentistry treatments.
Whether you are looking to treat a single tooth or make over your entire smile, porcelain veneers offer a potentially ideal solution. For further information about porcelain veneers, please contact our La Jolla cosmetic dentistry practice to schedule a consultation today.
Veneers are thin sheets of ceramic glass that are shaped to fit over your teeth, offering a natural-looking option for concealing cracks, chips, discoloration, and other cosmetic flaws. At Scripps Center for Dental Care in La Jolla, we also offer porcelain veneers as an alternative to more time-consuming orthodontic treatment methods; our dentists often use veneers as a form of "instant orthodontics" to fix minor gaps and misalignment. For our patients who desire more comprehensive smile makeover results, our dental specialists often combine porcelain veneers with other cosmetic dentistry options such as teeth whitening. With porcelain veneers, you can have a stunning smile in as little as two office visits.
The key to the realistic appearance of veneers lies in the light reflecting properties of porcelain. Like natural tooth enamel, porcelain is translucent, meaning that it allows some light to pass through its surface rather than simply reflecting it. When this high-grade porcelain is custom-crafted to complement the size, shape, color, and texture of surrounding natural teeth, it is virtually indistinguishable from enamel.
The first step in the process of placing porcelain veneers at our La Jolla office is a consultation with one of our cosmetic dentists. During this consultation, we will determine whether you are a suitable candidate for veneers. Using advanced digital imaging technology, we can create a mock up of your smile with porcelain veneers so that you can preview what you may look like after treatment. This smile design can help you decide whether porcelain veneers are the right choice for you.
Once it is determined that you are a good candidate for porcelain veneers, a digital impression of your teeth will be made and sent to our master ceramist, who will custom craft veneers according to precise specifications provided by our office. Temporary veneers will be placed on your teeth to protect them while your permanent veneers are being created. You will return to our La Jolla office for a second visit once your porcelain veneers are ready, and we will bond them to the front surfaces of your teeth. You will leave this second appointment with a beautifully restored smile that will last for years with proper maintenance.
If you would like to learn more about porcelain veneers or schedule a consultation at our La Jolla office serving the entire San Diego region, contact Scripps Center for Dental Care today.

Ike Rescue Unit: The Good SamaritanPosted by on September 15, 2008
Monday morning, it is a beautiful day here in Texas. As we were traveling through the state we noticed how nice the scenery was with huge ranches all full of horses and cows. We stopped along the way at a gas station and were greeted by a Good Samaritan that asked us if we knew of any animal shelters around the area. As we walked closer to the car we found out why. She had this cute black puppy with white markings on his paws looking up at us from the floor of the passenger side. The woman went on to say she found it on the side of the road. Not being from around the area we said that we did not know of any shelters but explained that we were on our way to an Antonio to conduct a rescue and would take the poor little guy with us. I immediately thought that "Ike" would be a cute name for our new little friend. The woman was very grateful that the pup was going to be safe and find a good home with us.
We set up a cage for him and gave him water and food. After a little while of driving he settled right down and took a nap. We all agreed that he must have been exhausted running around the side of the highway. Thank goodness this wonderful woman came along picked the puppy up. Everything happens for a reason so they say. I guess that is why we just happened to come along and stopped at that particular gas station.
We arrived at San Antonio's shelter in Bexar County and got the grand tour for Mike and me since it was our first time there. Claire was fully familiar with the set up as she has partcipated in our annual Tour for Life events with them for the past six years. The shelter was very welcoming and has a terrific set up for people to go outside with the dogs to meet with them. We selected a whole bunch that we are going to rescue and bring back to the shelter. We are going to try and get as many on board to return back to the Animal League. We have selected some felines as well as dogs.
Tomorrow we are going back to the shelter in the morning to go over paperwork and records so that everything is in order for the long journey back home. We are hoping to fill our mobile rescue unit with as many rescued animals from the evacuated areas that we can. We learned that one of the shelters in Galveston that evacuated to the Humane Society of Bexar County, will take quite a while before it is up and running once again. So we are happy that we are able to rescue animals that were transported from Galveston. There are still more animals that will need to be rescued from affected areas, like Galveston, so we are planning to arrange another vehicle to come down here load up some more dogs to be placed for adoption with us.
We will update you tomorrow on and tell you more about "Ike" – our hurricane puppy.
Claire, Mike and Diane

In the 15th century, a sultanate from Malaya was established in Brunei. At the time, he controlled almost all of Borneo. The sultan followed the national philosophy of Melayu Islam Beraja, guiding principles which stretch back to 100 AD. The Brunei Malay monarchy was first established around the 5th century when Islam began to spread around the Malay archipelago, though Islam didn't become the official state religion of Brunei until its first king, Sultan Muhammad Shah, assumed power in the 15th century.
By the 19th century, the sultan's power had waned to the point where Brunei declined into a haven for pirates and other miscreants. The British established a protectorate over the sultanate in 1888, and the sultan retained his formal authority. When the Japanese invaded during WWII, Brunei's modern government began to take its current shape.
A written constitution was drafted in 1959, creating an absolute constitutional monarchy. The sultan remained in charge, but a nominal government consisting of a chief minister, council of ministers, and an elected legislative council advised him. This legislative council was disbanded in 1962 following antimonarchist election victories and a failed military coup.
Brunei signed a treaty with the British in 1979, which led to full independence in 1984. Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah then became the country's absolute monarch. He used the blend of Malay culture, language, and customs of his predecessors, along with the teaching of Islamic laws and values, to create the core philosophy of his new country. A tolerant approach to other religions has allowed Brunei to develop a unique form of constitutional monarchy, which seems to go over just fine with its residents.
In 2004, the sultan appointed a 21-member legislative council to keep up with the changing times. He signed a constitutional amendment allowing a partially elected council, though these men are still essentially advisers to the sultan. The sultan remains the highest authority, appointing the Supreme Court judges and most of the legislative council. Sharia courts follow Islamic law to settle most matters concerning Muslims, while a more British-style judicial system deals with non-Muslim matters. The sultan is also the self-appointed defense minister and prime minister.
The present sultan is part of the same lineage which was established in the 15th century. He is advised by a number of different councils, and even has a cabinet of ministers to help run the various parts of his country. But in effect, he is the supreme ruler of Brunei, both the head of state and the head of the government. Brunei's media is very pro-sultanate, and the royal family is treated with extreme veneration within the country. As a part of ASEAN, Brunei keeps good relations with neighbors Singapore and Malaysia.

Suspended Aboriginal leader Geoff Clark could be sacked even if cleared of a conviction over a pub brawl, according to a document tabled yesterday by the Federal Government.
Indigenous Affairs Minister Amanda Vanstone outlined her reasons for Mr Clark's continued suspension as chairman of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission.
Her statement indicated that his "conduct" could alone be enough for him to be permanently replaced.
Her statement said "Mr Clark's conduct in, and/or commission of and/or conviction for the offence of, obstructing police" constituted misbehaviour under the ATSIC Act.
Mr Clark was fined $750 in December for obstructing police during a Warrnambool pub brawl after appealing against an earlier court decision.
Senator Vanstone said the fact that the offence carried a possible jail term meant Mr Clark could be removed for misbehaviour, but she would not consider his termination until the outcome of his foreshadowed Supreme Court appeal.
Opposition indigenous affairs spokesman Kerry O'Brien called on Senator Vanstone to clarify whether she would sack Mr Clark if he successfully appealed.
"That would be extraordinary because if those grounds disappear, the grounds for the ministerial action appear to be very fragile," he told Parliament.
Mr Clark accused the Government of encouraging apartheid. "It sends a clear message to those who wish to discriminate against Aboriginal people that it's OK to do so," he said.
Labor, the minor parties and independents have until March to move a motion reinstating Mr Clark but would need the support of the Government-controlled House of Representatives.

Seismologists warned of second quake
Page Tools
In a study published on March 17, a British team said there was "potential" for a massive temblor in the ocean floor west of Sumatra as a result of tensions stoked up there by the December 26 quake.
They said the quake could be as powerful as 8.5, and possibly generate a tsunami.
"There is no doubt - our calculations show a very significant increase on stress on two major active faults in the Sumatra region," seismologist John McCloskey at Britain's University of Ulster said on March 15.
"We are not trying to cry wolf," said McCloskey.
"We can point to many other quakes where the stresses like the one we've measured have resulted in a following earthquake, and we are suggesting there is a significantly increased risk."
He added: "When it comes to earthquakes, lightning does strike twice".
McCloskey said the indicators of an early, powerful quake in the Sumatra region were very strong, but admitted that no-one could tell exactly when such an event would occur.
But his warning was exceptional. It was as close as it gets to a prediction in a science whose practitioners are notoriously cautious about false alarms.
McCloskey explained that in so-called subduction zones, an earthquake can be swiftly followed by another one if certain geological conditions are met.
"There is a very well-established link between these stresses and following earthquakes," he said.
Energy released by the December 26 9.0-magnitude quake had boosted stress in adjoining parts of two dangerous faults, he said.
One fault runs under land to the east of the quake region and crosses the northwestern tip of Sumatra, running under the city of Banda Aceh, the capital of the Indonesian province that was badly hit by that event.
Banda Aceh was in fact rocked by a 5.9-magnitude quake last Friday.
The other fault, known as the Sunda Trench, runs under the sea to the south, parallel to the Sumatra coast, where two fatal tsunamis occurred in 1833 and 1861.
The December 26 movement ruptured 250,000 square kilometres on a stretch of the Burma microplate, a narrow tongue of the Earth's crust that is jostled by the neighbouring Indian, Australian and Sunda plates.
That seabed plunge, by as much as 20 metres, triggered the tsunami, killing more than 273,000 people in 11 nations on the northern rim of the Indian Ocean.
Part of the energy released by the quake was transferred to the contiguous fault sections. It distorted, compressed and deformed the rock, adding to the burden at known stress points and creating new ones.
Several known episodes in seismic history point to the danger of an imminent follow-on earthquake in subduction zones when the interplay between two vast forces, of sliding and vertical stresses, is right.
Just a very small increase in pressure on these tensed parts of the Earth's crust can trigger a catastrophic rupture.
In part of the Nankai Trough, south-east of Japan, five of the seven large earthquakes of the past 1,500 years unleashed earthquakes in the fault's next section within the following five years, the study says.
Another example is what happened in Turkey in 1999. A 7.4-magnitude earthquake in Izmit, south-east of Istanbul, was caused by the stresses of previous temblors on the Anatolian fault. In turn, this placed stress on the adjoining section of the same fault, unleashing a 7.1-magnitude quake at Duzce three months later.
The study by McCloskey's team was published on March 17 in the British weekly science journal Nature.

I've taken a quick look at this essay question, I've got some basic points, but I was wondering if anyone actually held an opinion on this, or even just had some useful arguments?
Are the rules which govern when the benefit of a freehold covenant may be annexed to, and 'run with' the covenantee's land, satisfactory?
Explain the rules regarding the passing of the benefit of freehold covenants, briefly:
must 'touch and concern' the land, so it must be for the benefit of the land itself (P & A Swift v Combined English Stores).
intention that it should run with the estate owned by the covenantee at the point of covenant (Smith and Snipes v River Douglas).
The covenantee must have a legal interest.
Then perhaps suggest that the rules regarding annexation are complex and difficult.
The courts' approach to the requirement that the covenant must relate to/benefit/touch and concern the covenantee's land; the role of intention in annexation; the identification of the benefited land, and with it, who can enforce the covenant?

I don't know whether it'd be going too off topic, but you might want to examine the different types of annexation: for example, the structure concerning 'express' annexation is far more satisfactory in terms of favouring the covenantor (in absence of contrary intention, it will be assumed that annexation attaches the benefit - Federated Homes v Mill Lodge) then 'implied', where the 'burden of proof' (so to speak) is reversed, and it will only be when there is an extremely clear intention implicit in the circumstances that it is granted (Marten v Flight Refuelling) so the balance is tipped in favour of the covenantee (in that the benefit is less likely to be given). Of course, remember that under s.78(1) LPA most covenants will now be annexed automatically to land, even where there are no express words, so cases where this fails will be few.
Don't know if that helps at all...is this a random essay question you've been sat, or one you're trying to practice from an exam paper? If it's the former, then it probably would help to mention the 'old law' before the legislation in a bit more detail then if this is a practice exam question, whereby you might just want to say that in the past it was slightly harder to prove annexation if it wasn't expressly stated, but this hurdle has been overcome by the 'new' statutory provisions.Last edited by Ad-Alta; 19-04-2009 at 16:11.

Despite having already defeated North Metro of Roseville twice this season, Faith Christian School Girls Basketball Coach Mike Sohre was a bit concerned when the Saints met North Metro for a third time Tuesday, Jan. 29, in Roseville.
"First of all, we had two closely-contested wins over them and this game was on their home court," said Sohre. "Second, we were still pretty weary from the weekend tournament in Iowa. And, third, just before the bus left I received notice that reserves Lauren Curott and Anna McClain could not make the trip due to illness.
"Our only junior varsity girls available to bring along were Beth Childs and Emma Brown. Then, in our pre-game meeting, several of the starters told me they didn't feel well and didn't know how well they were going to play. I asked them if we should forfeit. They said no and we huddled together and prayed for strength and energy."
After the players were announced, the team huddled once more and prayed for energy.
"Once the whistle blew the girls snapped into game mode and we took a quick six-point lead," said Sohre.
North Metro led 22-21 at halftime but FCS held the Blazers to 16 second-half points and scored a 50-38 victory.
Sophomore center Ashley Johnson made 15 of 19 shots from the field and set a Faith Christian girls single-game scoring record with 31 points. She also had 11 rebounds.
"North Metro just could not stop Ashley in the low post area," said Sohre. "We have been working hard the past month on getting the ball to our post players and putting them in favorably positions, as well as our post players developing good post moves."
The old FCS single-game mark was 29 points which was shared by Christine Kessler, Jessica Linz and Brenda Vanderweyst.
Junior center Faith Britton added 10 points and 11 rebounds while senior forward Jamie Nelson had eight points.
Britton fouled out with 2:15 left in the game and Childs, an eighth-grader, took her place. It was the only FCS substitution in the game.
"Beth held her own and we were able to maintain our 12-point lead," said Sohre. "During the game we had no clue that Ashley was closing in on the scoring record.
"All the girls wanted to do was win the game. They are so good at working together. I credit our team chemistry and prayer for this win."
On Thursday, Jan. 31, the Saints topped St. Francis Baptist 51-26 at Faith Christian.
Faith Christian pulled away from a 20-15 halftime lead by outscoring St. Francis 31-11 in the second half.
Britton led the way with 17 points and 23 rebounds while Nelson had 13 points and six rebounds and Johnson totaled 11 points and nine rebounds. Senior guard Madde Brown had eight points and 10 assists.
"We're 10-7 but we're only 11 points from being 14-3," said Sohre. "And, I don't think we've played our best ball yet."
Faith Christian is at Christian Life of Farmington Friday at 6:15 p.m.

How Do I Know If I've Damaged My Nose if it Got Hit After Rhinoplasty Op?
I have performed Rhinoplasty for over 20 years and from the history you gave...it's very likely that you caused significant trauma to your nose. IMHO, you should tell your Rhinoplasty surgeon so if your nose is crooked or has a hump 6 months from now...the cause will be certain. I tell all my Rhinoplasty patients to avoid all contact, to the nose, for 1 month after the surgery.

Contact sports after rhinoplasty
The nose is well enough healed after rhinoplasty to resume sports after four weeks. Contact sports pose a problem as the nose will be more easily fractured and damage your result and airway. Contact sports after two weeks is begging for trouble. Your doctor should have a look and expect him to be unhappy.
Best of luck,

Damaged Nose After Rhinoplasty
Without photos it will be difficult to tell if you have injured your nose. However, if it was a real problem needing surgery it likely would be visually or functionally obvious. See you doctor to help compare your photographs and his opinion about your current appearance. Normally, as some of the swelling resolves after a normal rhinoplasty, more details will be revealed.

Trauma after rhinoplasty
First of all I would tell you, like I tell my patients, that it will take 6-8 weeks for 80% of the swelling to resolve post surgery. I also tell them to avoid situations where they may injure their nose(such as contact sports) for at least a month post-op. It is probably just additional swelling form a new injury however you should see your surgeon right away to make sure you haven't developed a hematoma or caused other damage. Your post-op massages should be continued as directed.
Injury to nose 2 weeks after a rhinoplasty
Given the nature of this injury occurring only a little over 2 weeks following your rhinoplasty, you need to contact your surgeon who can then assess your nose for any potential damage. Hopefully, there will be no damage.

You need to contact your surgeon or see a facial plastic surgeon for evaluation. At this time you may simply have to wait to do anything until healing is more complete
Nasal Trauma 2.5 Weeks after Rhinoplasty
Getting hit in the nose with a basketball 2.5 weeks after rhinoplasty could easily compromise your result. Please don't ask us to evaluate your nose via the internet; see your surgeon as soon aspossible.

Great work again, good sir, but I'm not really interested in any Venom and I just remembered that I have to get that Necrovore demo, right now.
I never bothered to listen to anything after At War with Satan, but if this is as good as you say it is I'll look it up. Excellent review.
blast "Welcome to Hell" at high volumes while smashing your skull on a concrete wall and smoking PCP or snorting speed. Aaaarrgghhh!!!
Album Rating: 4.0Just look at the cover, you know it's gonna be good. I don't understand why people bash this album at all. Buncha morons.
Later Venom never thrilled me, but I this is mildly interesting
Album Rating: 4.0This is hardly "later Venom". It's still part of the original 80-86 era with Mantas on guitar, and honestly isn't that different from Black Metal.
Never said it was, just said it was more interesting than later Venom though hardly spectacular, though as far as I'm concerned Welcome To Hell and Black Metal are the only vintage Venom albums.
I absolutely hate this band. I absolutely love your reviews. You're one of the best metal reviewers on this site dude.

Strong winds and showers are expected on Thursday, with wind warnings expected to be issued for parts of the state.
And the cooler weather forecast for the next week makes it unlikely this March will be Melbourne's warmest, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
"Thursday will be quite windy and we'll have warnings out for damaging winds, most probably in elevated areas and the Alps," said senior forecaster Rod Dickson. "It will be a windy day throughout."
For Melbourne, "we'll probably see winds increase to 50km/h, with gusts up to and around 70 or 80km/h," said Mr Dickson.
Winds up to 50km/h would continue into the afternoon and evening, he said, and thunderstorms were a possibility. The expected top was 26 degrees.
While Melbourne recently had a run of nine consecutive days above 30 degrees – a record for any month, including March – it seems 1940 will retain the record for the hottest March, said Mr Dickson.
Currently Melbourne's average maximum temperature is 29.7 degrees for March, compared to the 1940 average of 28.9, said Mr Dickson.
But cooler weather would probably drag this month's average below that of 1940.
"That 1940 was a warm end to the month, with temperatures in the mid-30s," he said. "It would really take something special to beat that 1940 record and it doesn't look like it at this stage.
"We're forecasting fairly average temperatures over the next week with the exception of Wednesday. Beyond that, we've got a couple of fronts coming through on the weekend so it's looking reasonably mild."
The average maximum temperature for March is is 23.9 degrees, meaning temperatures so far this month are exceeding that by nearly six degrees.

What is outreach?
refers to the process by which the public or professionals
are made aware of a problem, informed of available services,
and instructed in what they can do to help. In the field
of elder abuse prevention, outreach has accomplished the
may be general in scope, reaching a broad audience, or it
may target specific groups. Groups that are typically targeted

outreach message
campaigns and activities can convey a variety of messages
to achieve specific goals. "Elderly Pennsylvanians Deserve
Honor and Respect, Not Abuse," for example, was the keystone
of a campaign carried out by the Pennsylvania Department
of Aging Services, after focus groups revealed that seniors
didn't like being portrayed as passive victims. AARP chose
the message "Telemarketing is a crime," after a survey revealed
that although seniors felt that telemarketing was wrong,
many didn't view it as criminal.
special populations
efforts may be needed to reach individuals who are isolated
as a result of illness or disability, geography, low literacy,
language, or cultural factors. A variety of innovative approaches
have been developed to overcome specific obstacles.

Q: How can I find symbols for preferred stocks like Ford?
A: Preferred stock is increasingly popular with investors, including some that didn't even know what it was not long ago.
Preferred stock is an often misunderstood and under-followed corner of financial markets. Preferred stock shares some traits with common stock and some with bonds. Like common stock, preferred stock trades by a ticker symbol, often three letters. And like bonds, preferred stock pays a prearranged and fixed dividend.
If you're interested in learning more about preferred stock, you can read this previous Ask Matt column.
How do you get the ticker symbol for preferred stock? You can go to the Money section at USATODAY.com and look up a preferred stock symbol just as you'd look up any stock symbol.
Go to money.usatoday.com and scroll down a bit until you see the "Get a quote" box on the left side of the page, just below the Market Summary. Start typing the name of the stock. You'll see a list of all the securities tracked by USATODAY, which usually includes preferred shares.
Ford and its credit operations both have preferred stock, so you'll want to make sure you have the correct one. Ford preferred is FPRS.

1. We need a summit on representative football
We urgently need a summit on all aspects of representative football. We have had to put up with ridiculous scheduling for far too long. That should be top of the list. Secondly, eligibility rules for international football urgently need to be addressed. As the biggest and best rugby league country in the world, I've always believed Australia has an obligation to develop the game throughout all the rugby league playing nations. We need to ensure the various levels of domestic representative football include players who truly represent, and are reflective of, the changing demographics of people who play the game here in this country. We must also ensure that the potential of all rugby league playing nations is not restricted as a result. I believe that players from Pacific Island nations and New Zealand heritage, who play their junior rugby league here in Australia, should all be eligible for the prestigious representative teams and competitions here in this country, including State of Origin. When it comes to international football, however, they should still be eligible to play for their country of heritage. Quite simply, from an international qualifying perspective, players should be permitted to play for the country whose national anthem fills their heart with pride.
2. One referee – one referee – one referee
Repeat after me – One referee!! One referee!! One referee!!!
Let's picket outside NRL Central for One Referee!!
As I sat and watched the thoroughly enjoyable Test match last Friday night between Australia and New Zealand, there was something most pleasurable about the experience I couldn't quite put my finger on at first. Then it hit me. There was only one referee. I couldn't believe how peaceful the game was without the persistent screaming of the two referees yelling out at every play-the-ball. We were also spared the distraction of watching the pocket referee racing up being behind the play-the-ball screaming at players and pointing at them. The game had a nice flow to it and was played at a beautiful pace. The players appeared more relaxed and the game was far less frantic. They were also able to get at each other and the referee allowed just enough natural slowing of the play-the-ball to keep a nice balance between attack and defence. It showed yet again that one referee is quite capable of officiating throughout the 80 minutes of a high-level rugby league contest. Leading referee Shane Hayne appeared composed and completely in control. I say that if we have one referee and he misses the odd knock-on or clever piece of gamesmanship from a smart player, then so be it. It's all part of the game and we should just move on. I honestly believe the two-referee system has created more problems than it solves. I am also positive that the senior referees would prefer to be out there on their own, rather than being second-guessed by another refereeing partner on the field.
3. How Good Was That?
If there was anybody still questioning the value of playing Pacific nations Tests on our stand-alone rep weekend, surely that clash between Samoa and Fiji at Sportingbet Stadium last Saturday was enough to convince them of their importance to our game. We need to get the eligibility criteria sorted out so the participating nations can access the best of our players with the relevant heritage. The game must also insist that clubs, both here and in Europe, release their players for such Test matches. However, even with such restrictions in play last weekend, the players produced a cracking Test match, boosted by the incredible passion of the fans in attendance. One only had to witness the pre-match ceremonies to understand what these occasions mean to those involved and the vast numbers of fans of our game with Pacific Island heritage. If we make the necessary administrative changes and these teams are boosted further by the inclusion of a number of players who were wrongly excluded from the Test, these Pacific nation Tests will only get bigger and better. There is an enormous opportunity here with great long-term benefits for the game.
4. Amazing Australians
What an achievement by the Australian Test team to have stretched their winning sequence to 16 straight with a 30-18 win against New Zealand last Friday night. This equals the record set by the Kangaroos of 1979-83, with skipper Cameron Smith and vice-captain Paul Gallen playing in all 16 wins of this streak. They are truly one of Australia's finest teams and they don't receive the plaudits they genuinely deserve. To break the record, however, they'll now need to beat the Kiwis again in Brisbane on October 25 on the opening night of this year's Four Nations. Judging by what we saw of New Zealand last Friday, that will be no easy task. If they are able to avoid the injury crisis that struck them in the lead-up to this latest Test and can add the likes of Kieran Foran, Issac Luke, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Ben Matulino and Elijah Taylor to the squad that performed so admirably last Friday night, the Kiwis will make a 17th record-breaking win for the Aussies anything but a formality.
5. Please, stop this madness
A good friend of mine recently received a text message from the coach of his 11-year-old son's football team. The message was to notify the parents of the youngsters that the coach was calling an extra training session each week. The reason for the extra practice day? Well, the coach proudly announced that he had secured the services of a wrestling expert to tutor the youngsters in the art of wrestling in the tackle. How bloody ridiculous! If we allow the coaches of 11-year-old football teams to introduce the art of wrestling into kids' training sessions, then surely we have lost the war. Most certainly we have lost the plot. Young footballers should be learning to run, pass and kick the football. Nothing more, nothing less. From a defence perspective, youngsters should be schooled in the art of making a tackle that is safe and prevents risk of injury for both themselves and the player they are tackling. Junior league football should be about participation and enjoyment, having fun with your mates and feeling the joy of being part of a team. Has anyone out there experienced something similar in the coaching of their son's teams? If any parent is aware of their son's junior team being coached in the art of wrestling, they should report the matter to their club officials – and the coach responsible should be sacked.
6. Junior Rep Grand Finals This Weekend
The state grand finals of the junior representative under-16s and 18s will be held this Saturday at Leichhardt Oval. At noon, the Under-16s Harold Matthews Grand Final will feature minor premiers Newcastle up against Penrith. Newcastle last won the title in 2000 with a team featuring current NRL stars Greg Bird, Michael Ennis and Brad Tighe. Penrith are chasing their fourth premiership in 10 years in this prestigious competition. In the Under-18s SG Ball grand final, second-placed Penrith will play third-placed Sydney Roosters, with a kick-off time of 2pm. The Roosters are chasing their third title in seven years and have scored an average of 39.82 points a game this season, while Penrith will strive for their first premiership since 2006, a team which featured Michael Jennings, Tim Grant and Siosaia Vave. There will be some fine football on display and plenty of future NRL stars will feature. The winners will advance to national finals the weekend after this to play the Queensland champions. Get out there on Saturday afternoon and support the stars of the future.
