Live Stats | Live Video on the Ivy League Digital Network
PHILADELPHIA – The lone Ivy League team yet to concede a goal in League play, Penn takes to Rhodes Field on Saturday night (7:30 p.m.) in a crucial Ancient Eight match against Dartmouth.
The Quakers (4-6-1, 1-0-1 Ivy) are tied for second in the Ivy League with four points through two matches, while the Big Green (4-2-4, 0-2-0 Ivy) is searching for its first Ivy win of 2013.
For Penn, the unbeaten start to League play related to staunch defense, as the 0.00 goals-against-average in Ivy play suggests. After allowing 17 goals through nine non-conference matches, the Quakers have posted clean sheets in both outings inside the Ivy League – including a 110' double-overtime draw with Columbia last weekend. As a team, Penn has posted four shutouts this season – last year the Quakers did not record a single clean sheet. Four shutouts in 2013 is the most in a single season since the 2010 side recorded nine during its run to the NCAA Tournament. That season, the Quakers did not concede a goal in Ivy League play until its sixth Ancient Eight match of the season.
The 2010 team recorded five of its nine shutouts at home, one more than the current club has secured on home turf this season.
Tyler Kinn has recorded three of Penn's shutouts in goal, including the 0-0 draw with Columbia a week ago. He made four saves in that match, two in each half, for his first career Ivy League blanking. Prior to the Columbia match, Max Polkinhorne had started the previous two matches, picking up the win in both – including a 1-0 win over defending League champion, Cornell, to start the Ivy slate. With both keepers entering the weekend riding positive momentum, the Quakers should feel comfortable regardless of who gets the starting nod.
The Quakers have received offensive contributions from a variety of players this season, with 11 different Quakers notching at least one point. Seven different players have scored at least one goal, led by Sam Hayward and Duke Lacroix who each have four. That number is good for a tie for second among Ivy players, Hayward leading all rookies in scoring to this point. As a team, Penn still sits atop the Ivy scoring list with 17 goals – which also puts Penn in the top 25% nationally. Two players the Quakers would like to see get back on the scoring register are Stephen Baker and Alec Neumann. Each has two goals, but hasn't hit the back to the net since Sept. 15 and Sept. 8, respectively.
After outscoring opponents by a 2-1 margin through the non-conference season, the Big Green has dropped a pair of one-goal games the last two weeks. After a 2-1 loss to Princeton to begin the Ivy slate, the Big Green was edged in double overtime by Yale, 1-0, last weekend. A Bulldog free kick in the 107' was the deciding factor in a match which featured just 12 total shots between the two sides.
First-year head coach Chad Riley guided his team through an eight-match unbeaten streak to start 2013 before suffering losses each of the last two times out. The Big Green is 3-0-3 at home this season, with just two true road matches to its credit (0-1-1).
Alex Adelabu leads the team with four goals and two assists to this point. The junior forward was a first-team All-Ivy and NSCAA All-Region selection last season after netting nine goals and three assists. In goal, James Hickok and Stefan Cleveland have alternated starts throughout the season. Each has five starts, Hickok starting last weekend against Yale. Each keeper is 2-1-2 this season, Hickok leading with an 0.69 GAA to Cleveland's 1.18.

My point was that the choice of tense for the main verb ("refused" or "had refused") is independent of the choice of tense for the subordinate verb ("saw" or "had seen"). All four combinations of tense are possible, depending on the meaning. In each case the refusing precedes the seeing, but that does not constrain the choice of tense in either clause.

Hello all
New member here & glad I found this place. Seems like alot of neat people here. I purchased the " How to grill" book this past weekend. I don't like it. I can't get this thing in my pocket, even after rubbin some olive oil on the book covers. But really, after I happened to find the BBQU show on the tube, I noticed Steve's picture on this book at the book store. I recognized Steve from that show & bought the book. I've showed the book to 8 coworkers & got the same responses. "Where did you get this", "I gotta get me one", & "man I'm hungry".
After reading this book & finding this site, I've learned alot of new stuff. The grilled pizza caught my eye. I had seen a post about how something tasted better, the second time around, on the grill. Well, we bought some Little Caesars last night. I thought Hmmm. I indirectly grilled a few slices of pizza 5 to10 minutes. I was thinking the cheese would melt all over the place & I would have a mess. It didn't happen & man did it turn out good. I love thin & crispy crust. The pizza was hot & had just a little bit of crispness to it. Way better than heating it up in the microwave. Well , I've blabed long enough. I'm gonna have to get some of the other books, as I have a new excitement about grilling. Thanks for the books Steve & members keep them posts coming.

HOUSTON - More than 20 people appeared before a federal court judge following Tuesday's raid on dozens of homes as part of a federal crackdown on indoor marijuana growing operations.
The more than year-long investigation was dubbed operation "Green House Effect" and involved suspected members of a Vietnamese crime ring.
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, 24 people have been arrested and a total of 19,000 marijuana plants were seized during the operation.
Drug Enforcement Administration agents conducted search warrants on 60 properties in Harris, Fort Bend and Montgomery counties and reported 40 of those locations were active hydroponic marijuana "grow houses." DEA officials said each active location had anywhere from 100 to 850 marijuana plants in varying stages of growth.

By Philip Hensher
Macmillan, $34.99
IF PHILIP Hensher is a snob, he is the rare Proustian sort: a snob who recognises snobbery and reveals it with playful honesty. But I'm writing this in blue ink and, as Hensher explains in The Missing Ink: The Lost Art of Handwriting (and Why It Still Matters), ''blue ink … is cosy and friendly, but perhaps not very serious''. Read me with caution, sober readers.
The subtitle of Hensher's book suggests a popular polemic or earnest manifesto, but it is, thankfully, neither. The Missing Ink is instead a personal defence of the value of handwriting. This is sometimes achieved straightforwardly, with the help of research: Washington academics, for example, found correlations between good handwriting and higher educational results, among ''problem children''. Better-formed letters went hand-in-hand with better memory and word recognition.
But more engaging than the few cited studies is Hensher's obvious pleasure in pens, ink and penmanship. His detailed descriptions of letters and ligatures invite the reader to smile and scowl along with him.
On a note he received from a fellow Oxford student: ''What it said has been lost in the mists of time, but the style of the thing was unforgettable: triangular, oval, thick-and-thin pen strokes, meticulous down strokes and curving up strokes. I had had my first living encounter with a living italic hand.''
Importantly, The Missing Ink is not filled with fawning odes to any one style. This very same ''living italic'' style, for example, is also panned as an adolescent fad, or the plaything of pretentious ''arses''. (Hensher's own striking hand is italic.)
The nearest thing in Hensher's book to hero worship is, as he admits, the chapter on English educator Marion Richardson. While the American acolytes of P. R. Spencer and A. N. Palmer were dedicated to rote drilling and discipline - often for ''moral improvement'' or social climbing - Richardson encouraged her pupils to draw, doodle, colour in. She taught them the rhythms and gestures of writing, but she also made it fun: spontaneous, inventive, imaginative. In Richardson's classrooms, handwriting was not a military duty or mystical rite, but a kind of play.
This is very much the spirit of Hensher's book. While he devotes several well-researched chapters to the history of writing styles, inks and pens - including a corker on that apex of modern design, the Bic Cristal - what really makes The Missing Ink are the stories, jokes, mocking asides and parenthetical grumbles.
The mood of his footnotes skips from curious (''Definition: a 'looped' alphabet would return along a different path to the upper portions …'') to grumpy (''Seriously, what crap'') to wicked (''I mean, I'm all for the baroque in its place'' - the footnote to ''place'' reads ''Dresden''). Hensher breaks up the traditional chapters of history and argument with interviews and anecdotes, including a story of the author's hunt for a good piston-filled fountain pen with an oddly uncommon nib.
His novelistic observations on retail pretence, and London's generic touchscreen pecking, are skewering and sad in equal measure. His chapter on Proust and the allure of illegibility is outstanding.
While Hensher recognises that graphology is quackery to most professional psychologists, he seems to want a bob each way, noting one graphologist's surprising triumph. But this does nothing to overturn the evidence. He is more convincing on the Humean associations we make between handwriting and character: distinctive lines on paper stand in for a distinctive self. Passages on the notebook of a student who died are particularly moving.
Hensher can be surprisingly sentimental (''Ink runs in our veins'') and huffy, but his refusal to censor his impressions adds to the book's portrait of an intense and fascinating personality. He contains multitudes. It is this portrait of the author, and his devotion to handwriting's palpable intimacy, that makes the book so enjoyable.
Hensher argues for, but also conveys, the value of slow, spontaneous pleasures. He also fills his book with others' memories: a novelist remembers a ''dapper, sarcastic, chain-smoking'' headmaster.
Without fetishising German fountain pens and French paper, Hensher makes a compelling case for manual, artful pursuits and against generic automation.
Like Hensher's italic hand, seemingly reproduced on the cover (in dark-blue ink, with some purple; an ambiguous message to readers), The Missing Ink is an idiosyncratic pleasure.

PHILADELPHIA –The University of Pennsylvania's men's tennis team is set to host its 2nd annual Penn Invitational this weekend. 15 total schools will partake in the tournament and in addition to all 20 courts being utilized at the Hamlin Tennis Center and Levy Tennis Pavilion, matches will also be played at courts on Temple's campus across town. Action will get underway on Friday morning starting at 9 a.m. at both locations and will continue through Sunday.
Unlike last year's inaugural invitational, the format this year will feature various dual matches between participating schools rather than the traditional individual tournament during the fall. Each dual match will consist of eight flights of singles and four flights of doubles.
The Quakers will have representation on three separate teams competing in the tournament. Penn's main team of eight players will face off against Duquesne at noon on Friday. Also taking the court at noon will be a mixed team of Penn and Monmouth players joining forces versus Binghamton. Lastly, an All Star team roster consisting of players from Penn, Lehigh, Niagara, and Stonybrook will kick things off at 9 a.m. against Delaware.
Other schools participating this year are Brown, Buffalo, Norfolk State, St. John's, St. Joseph's, St. Peter's, and Temple.
Results will be posted on PennAthletics.com after each day of play is completed.

>Racing>Post Race Recovery
You'll ruin your knees!
""...the truth that someday, you will go for your last run. But not today—today you got to run." - Matt Crownover (after Western States)
12 Monkeys
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Post Race Recovery...
1) protein within 2 hours of finish (hmmm....burger)
2) If you like, I have had success with Recoverite. It is a recovery drink from Hammer Nutrition.
3) Ice bath...get 2-3 bags of ice put it/cold water in the tub and sit in it for 15-20 minutes as soon as is feasible after your marathon. It really helps keep the soreness at bay the next day.
You don't necessarily have to do all three...I find the ice baths the hardest to do, but the most effective.
Good luck with it..
Lynn B
Abs of Flabs
Yep, ice bath works, the cold pool is great, if that's an option, that is what I do when the pool is cold enough, which isn't all that often here. The ice cubes in the bath tub are a lot of effort, so I only do it when I know I am really going to have some muscle damage that I need to avoid. Also, it takes a little...er, uh, tactical thinking to keep certain things out of the ice, if you know what I mean! I never win the tactical battle and usually just...oh, that's just too much information....
Lynn B
Forgive me for being the only straight forward female in this thread to state teh obvious: I've got to think this ice bath thing does not do much for your post-race sex life?! How many ways can we say, "stack of buttons"?? Hell, I'm a woman & I can't even imagine jumping in an ice bath...of course we women have the advantage of then cutting our way out...
Actually, I could use a little more information. I get how to do this wading into a pool or a (great) lake. How'd you pull if off in a bathtub? (I'd prefer to avoid iced johnson syndrome (IJS)).

Rochester Mayor Thomas Richards today warned state lawmakers that upstate cities can't turn to their local revenue base to pay for growing government costs, saying the state either needs to provide more aid or find another way to help them.
Richards said the city's tax base simply can't afford higher property taxes, and there's little money in it anyway. If Rochester raised it property taxes 2 percent, it would raise $3.2 million. It's deficit is $28 million next fiscal year, which starts July 1.
"We got to wake up and take these cities into the 21st century," Richards said during his 45-minute testimony.
Richards recommended the state look to its income-tax base to help fund cities.
"As a practical matter, I don't see any way to go to get a broad enough base, except to the state of New York," Richards said.
He pointed out that even though the city's property values have increased, it does little to offset higher costs. For example, the bankrupt Eastman Kodak paid the city about $13 million in property taxes a decade ago. Now it pays about $3 million.
"It would take an investment in residential and smaller commercial property, something close to four maybe 10 times the size of the Eastman Kodak industry base to generate that kind of revenue," Richards said. "It's just going to happen, and so we need to get away from it."
He said the city's problems are also a societal one. Half the city's children live in poverty, but the Rochester suburbs are generally prosperous. He said if you drive down Monroe Avenue from the city, you'll pass James Monroe High School — one of the worst performing schools in the nation. Further down Monroe Avenue, Brighton High School in the suburbs is one of the best in the country.
Richards said he support Gov. Andrew Cuomo's proposal to allow for pension costs to be spread out over a long period of time, saying it would lead to fewer spikes in costs.
"In the long run, we are going to need to look to the state to either increase our direct aid or reduce our expense burden," Richards said.

POLICE are urging elderly people to be alert after residents of St Johns, Worcester, have been targeted in a bank card scam.
Between last Tuesday, July 22, and last Friday, there have been six incidents in St Johns, with other occurring in the wider force area.
The scam is worked by cold callers pretending to be a police officer, who ask for account details or PIN numbers, before urging the victims to hand over their bank card over to a courier who will call at their house.
The public are warned that police officers, and banks officials never ask for account details or PIN numbers over the phone, followed by a courier coming to collect the cards afterwards.
A police spokesman said: "Not all of these incidents resulted in people handing over the cards. This is exactly the right response. If you are suspicious, it is absolutely correct to refuse to provide your card or any of your bank details.
"If you do get such a call and a courier comes to the door, then at no point allow them entry. Immediately dial 999 and provide as much detail as possible of the courier and vehicle."

Besides just being hot outside, a number of weather factors including humidity, wind speed, nighttime temperatures and the duration of high temperatures contribute to the risk of heat stress in livestock.
To help producers monitor those conditions and make management decisions during hot weather, University of Missouri environmental physiologist Don Spiers, PhD, developed a smartphone app called ThermalAid. The 99-cent app tracks humidity and temperature through its GPS function. The cow's respiration rate and other determining factors are submitted by the user with the help of tools available on the app.
With the information available, the app provides the animal's Temperature Humidity Index, a measure of how the animal is handling the heat. The tool advises the most effective intervention strategies when necessary. To download the app, search for "ThermalAid" in the iTunes App Store, or to learn more about heat stress and the ThermalAid app, visit thermalnet.missouri.edu.

Detroit is atop the NFC North with a 6-2 record, a position strikingly similar to where the Lions were around this time last year. After starting 6-3 in 2013, they ended up 7-9, frittering away a great chance to make the playoffs. So it's understandable that fans are a bit cautious in their excitement this season.
"That's a natural reaction because it's happened. It's imploded before," center Dominic Raiola said. "But this is different, this is a new year."
The most obvious difference is a new coaching staff. Jim Caldwell took the helm last offseason after Jim Schwartz was fired. Although Detroit's offense has not taken off under the new regime, the Lions have generally been able to avoid the types of mistakes in the fourth quarter that plagued them last year.
And in their upcoming clash with streaking Miami they get their best player Calvin Johnson back.
Over the past five games, Miami's Ryan Tannehill has been the best player on the Dolphins. He has a passer rating of 104.1 while completing 68 percent of his attempts and averaging 8.2 yards per attempt. He has led the Dolphins (5-3) to three consecutive victories, and they're above .500 at midseason for the first time since 2003.
"He's the reason we're playing well," guard Mike Pouncey said.
The Dolphins (5-3) have also forced 10 turnovers over the past three games, their best such stretch of takeaways since 2004, helping them take a three-game winning streak to Detroit on Sunday.
Because Miami's offense has been holding onto the ball, the result is a turnover differential of plus-6 this season. That's tied for sixth in the NFL, and especially notable because the Dolphins haven't finished a season in the plus column since 2008.
Not coincidentally, that's the last time they made the playoffs.

CRT Kicks off 40th Anniversary Season with Rumors June 8-18
Cortland Repertory Theatre starts their celebratory 40th Anniversary "Ruby Jubilee" season at the Little York Pavilion with "Rumors", a hysterical farce penned by America's Master of Comedy, Neil Simon. Simon is best known for his cannon of wildly successful comedies, and is the only playwright in history to have four shows running on Broadway at the same time: "The Odd Couple", "Barefoot in the Park", "The Star Spangled Girl" and the musical "Sweet Charity". He has been nominated 17 times for the Tony Award, has won 3, and also won the Pulitzer Prize for his semi-autobiographical comedy/drama "Lost in Yonkers". "Rumors" is the only true farce that he has added to his extensive body of work.
Performances will run from June 8th - 18th with evening performances at 7:30. Matinees are available on June 10th, 12th and 15th at 2:00 PM. Tickets may be purchase by calling 800-427-6160 or at the CRT Box Office at 37 Franklin Street in Cortland. Tickets are also available for sale 24 hours a day through the CRT website at www.cortlandrep.org.
"Rumors" takes place on the evening of the 10th wedding anniversary of the Deputy Mayor of New York City. Over the course of the evening, four affluent couples, including his lawyer, his accountant, his therapist, and a rising politician, arrive separately at the Mayor's swank Sneden's Landing townhouse to celebrate. However, one-by-one they are horrified to discover that the Mayor has shot himself (through the ear), his wife is missing, the servants are gone and no food is prepared. As the Mayor lies incoherent and groggy in the bedroom, the couples frantically try to figure out what exactly happened. Fearful of scandal, they create stories to keep the truth from each other, which become more convoluted as the "rumors" get bigger and wilder. When the police eventually arrive, no one is sure what the real story is, the confusions and miscommunications mount, and the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity. The New York Times said that "Rumors has nothing on its mind except making the audience laugh" and NBC-TV said that it is "Not only side splitting, but front and back splitting".
Producing Artistic Director Kerby Thompson directs. "I'm very excited to work on this hilarious Simon play," he says. "It's actually quite similar to "Unnecessary Farce" from our 2009 Season, which became our highest attended non-musical play in our 40 year history. With this great script and a fantastic cast, anyone who loves or needs a good laugh is sure to enjoy this production." Thompson's other recent CRT directing credits include "See How They Run" and "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas".
The cast is a mix of familiar and new faces to CRT audiences. Last seen in 2010's "The Andrews Brothers", Sean Riley plays attorney Ken Gorman with newcomer Melissa Macleod Herion as his wife, Chris who picked a bad day to quit smoking. Nicholas Wilder is accountant Lenny Ganz with Amy Desiato, who played "Steam Heat" dancer Gladys in last summer's "The Pajama Game" as his gossipy wife Claire. Playing Cookie Cusack, a cooking show host, is Erica Livingston, who was in CRT's "Unnecessary Farce" and "The Great American Trailer Park Musical"; her therapist husband Ernie is played by Colin Wasmund, who was seen in CRT's "Almost Maine". Rounding out the couples are Jackie Washam as neurotic Cassie Cooper and CRT favorite Dustin Charles as her husband, the up-and-coming politician Glenn. Charles has been seen in eight CRT shows, including "Brigadoon", "Unnecessary Farce" and "I Hate Hamlet". The two police officers who stumble into the chaos are played by Danny Blaylock, last seen in "Johnny Guitar" as Officer Welch and Cortland's own Jamilla Fort as Officer Pudney. Fort appeared in numerous plays at Cortland High School and has just completely her junior year at the Crane School of Music.
Returning Stage Manager Eric Behnke leads a talented production team. Returning this year are: Jason Bolen who created scenic designs for CRT's "The Andrews Brothers", and "The Pajama Game"; Costume designer Jimmy Johnsmeyer fresh from last season's "Brigadoon", and "Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks" among many more; Lighting Designer Shawn Boyle, direct from serving as Associate Director for the new Broadway show "The People in the Picture"; Sound Designer Dave Huber in his third CRT year and Technical Director Patrick McGovern. Properties Mistress Danielle Hodgins and Assistant Stage Management Intern Tracy Hoida make their CRT debuts with this show.
CRT will continue the tradition of "Friday Night Talk Backs" at which a Q & A session with the actors, designers and crew take place after every Friday evening performance. Tickets are also on sale for all of CRT's summer season, which includes "Chicago", "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat", "A Murder is Announced", "The Smell of the Kill", "Souvenir: A Fantasia on the Life of Florence Foster Jenkins" and the children's show "Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz".

SAINT LEO, Fla. – The Saint Leo softball team (17-18) dropped a pair of non-region games to Fontbonne University (6-4), Wednesday evening from University Softball Stadium. The Lions fell 6-4 in game one, before being edged in the finale, 9-8.
Game one saw Fontbonne score four runs in the fifth inning as they posted a two-run, 6-4 win. Game two featured 17 combined runs, but a three-run home run off the bat of Sarah Cerutti in the seventh inning allowed the Griffins to steal the one run victory.
In total, three Lions posted double-digit hits including Brittany Yates who went a combined 2-for-6. One of her two hits, a fifth-inning, two-run home run, set the all-time home record at Saint Leo as the blast registered as her 34th career long ball, surpassing Saint Leo great Ashley Urbanik (33). Danielle Moreda and Ali Lamb each posted three hits, while scoring two runs apiece.
The Griffins got on the board first in game one as they etched one across in the third inning. After an Alex Garris ground out tied the game in the fourth inning, the visitor's erupted for four runs in the fifth inning to take a 5-1 lead. Still, Saint Leo battled back in the bottom of the frame as Moreda drew a bases loaded walk and an opportunistic Rachelle Gremo scored on a wild pitch.
Unfortunately, it was as close as Saint Leo could get as Fontbonne added an insurance run in the sixth to push the score to its eventual 6-4 final.
Ashley Ehlers took the loss for the Lions as she dropped to 4-3 on the season.
Game two witnessed the Lions face an immediate deficit as the Griffins scored six runs on five hits in the second inning. The Lions, however, immediately began fighting back as they scored three across the next two innings highlighted by a McKenize Burns RBI single in the third.
Saint Leo, behind a four-run fourth inning took the lead when Yates blasted her two-run shot over the centerfield fence, and Dianne Gonzalez forced home two on a sacrifice fly.
The Lions added an eighth run in the sixth on a Ashlee Sismilch groundout, but it turned out not to be enough as Cerutti used a two-out, three-run blast to put the Griffins up for good.
Megan Still, after nearly five innings of scoreless relief, was tagged with the tough-luck loss as she fell to 6-11 on the season.
The Lions will return to the field on Saturday, March 24, when they travel to West Palm Beach, Fla. to take on the Palm Beach Atlantic Sailfish in NCAA South Region action. First pitch is set for noon.

I chuckled. It's clear to see who the "Lore Junkies" and "Fanboys" are here. If you don't get the joke it's basically parodying how everyone's characters have reverted and done a complete 360, and how it doesn't make any sense.
Oh man, thanks OP, I haven't laughed like this in a while. I guess you need a way too active imagination to laugh at this.
It wasn't that funny the first time this joke was played, certainly wasn't funny when it was reused and recycled and recited back to me.
Definitively not my kind of humor, not by a long shot... : P
Even if I didn't get it right away (before I turned on my brain again), it still wasn't funny after I got it.
Oh well, that's me. Can't like everything either.
The Stratholme one was much, much funnier.
Arthas: I watch my tone with you, old man. I may be the prince, but you're still my superior as a paladin.
Uther: As if you could forget. Yes Arthas, there's something about the plague I should know. ...Oh no, it's already begun. These people may look fine now, but it's only a matter of time before they turn into the Undead!
Arthas: What?!
Uther: This entire city must be purged.
Arthas: How can I even consider that? There's got to be some other way.
Uther: Damn it, Arthas! As my future king, order me to purge this city!
Arthas: I am not your king yet, old man. Nor should you obey that command even if I were.
Uther: Then you must consider this an act of treason.
Arthas: Treason?! Have I lost my mind, Uther?
Uther: Have you? Prince Arthas, by right of succession and the sovereignty of your crown, you must hereby relieve me of my command, and suspend my paladins from service.
Jaina: Uther! He can't just--
Uther: It's done! Those of you who have the will to save this land, follow him. The rest of you... get out of his sight.
Arthas: I've just crossed a terrible threshold, Uther.
Jaina: ...Arthas?
Arthas: I'm sorry, Jaina. You can't watch me do this.

Quit is urging smokers who don't want to run out of puff to think about quitting on World No Tobacco Day, May 31. And to help those who want to give it a go, Quit has developed a free World No Tobacco Day Quit pack which includes a range of resources and materials to help smokers quit for good.
Quit Executive Director Todd Harper says this year's theme - Quit and be fit – is a great opportunity to remind smokers that quitting will help them feel fitter and better. To tie in with the theme and help smokers 'Quit and be fit' this year's World No Tobacco Day Quit pack also includes a gym voucher to the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre, and other items to help smokers stay quit for good.
Mr Harper says smoking reduces your ability to participate in sports and physical activity in a number of ways.
'Smoking will affect your fitness and general wellbeing, no matter what your fitness level is.'
'Poisons from cigarettes like carbon monoxide, nicotine and tar make your heart work harder and reduce the amount of oxygen being transferred to the blood and muscles. And the build up of tar in a smoker's lungs results in less air being breathed in and out.'
Co-Captain of Melbourne Phoenix netball team, Liz Boniello, agrees that whether you're serious about sport, or just want to get the most out of life, smokefree is the only way to go.
'To be your best, at any level, you need to be smokefree.'
'So whether you enjoy a game of football, hit of tennis, a game of golf, or simply a stroll around the park, quitting smoking will help you enjoy these activities more. You'll have more puff to enjoy life!'
Mr Harper says World No Tobacco Day is a popular time for smokers to think about quitting, and each year many thousands of Victorian smokers try to quit on May 31.
'Setting a date to quit is an important part of a successful quit attempt, and I'd encourage any smoker thinking of quitting to call the Quitline and get a free World No Tobacco Day Quit pack.'
'This year's World No Tobacco Day Quit pack includes a calendar that sticks on to your computer and includes quit tips – which is a great tool to help smokers get quitting on their agenda.
'No matter how long you've been smoking, when you quit, you'll feel the benefits straight away as your body starts to repair itself.'
The free World No Tobacco Day Quit and be fit' pack is available by calling the Quitline on 131 848.

1. It lets cheap materials from abroad take the place of innovation
2. Ripping off inventors by letting the knowledge an inventor has to be exploited by other countries
If someone can take a brilliant invention and make it more affordable to everyone by using cheaper materials, I'd say that's progress.
Your posts get more ridiculous at time goes by...
but I assert that, without trade, progress and innovation are impossible.
The only one worth following is the one who leads... not the one who pulls; for it is not the direction that condemns the puller, it is the rope that he holds.
we need to pay people a minimun wage of 100000 a hour not to trade
Trade in our day often frees up skilled labor to doing more productive tasks because the number of people who are performing unskilled labor rises. It also allows for an increase in innovation by increasing the skilled labor and entrepreneurial pool, as well as raising general incomes. In a free market the process you're talking about is quickly corrected, because we are soon brought to the point where profit cannot be reached by not innovating, although in the short run you actually do have a very legitimate point with point 1.
As for number 2, that's entirely wrong. The fact that new ideas circulate mean that new companies can get their hands on it and new people can expand upon it. This increases the rate of innovation. If only on person ever learned about calculus that there would be general mathematical innovation? No, through allowing maths and sciences to circulate and become part of general knowledge instead of being highly centralized, infinite productivity and innovation has been achieved.
No trade means no division of labor. No division of labor means that each person must be entirely self-sufficient, producing everything he consumes. Only a tiny fraction of the existing population could survive on this economic model, and would enjoy a standard of living similiar to what existed prior to the invention of agriculture. The OP is speaking about international trade, not trade in general, but this is only a difference of degree. Less trade means less division of labor means lower standards of living, etc. Protectionist trade policy benefits cartelized domestic industries at the expense of the consumer. That ordinary people like the OP (i.e. people who do not benefit but are rather harmed by protectionism) regularly advocate protectionism only goes to show how effective State propaganda can be.
As for intellectual property, it is not property at all, because it is not scarce. My using the knowledge to build X does not exclude you from using the knowledge to build X, therefore the knowledge to build X is not scarce, and therefore it cannot be property, as the only purpose of property is to define who has a right to use which scarce resources, so as to avud conflict over who gets to use those resources. It's the same for all forms of intellectual property: trade secrets, copyrights, etc. Intellectual property, rather, is a monopoly privilage granted by the State, which (like all monopoly privilages), benefits its holder at the expense of his competitors and of consumers. There's no important difference between the State saying only Bob can produce corn and only Jones can produce copies of a certain song.
So to what level should we restrict trade? National? State? City? Should all individuals do everything for themselves? Any cutoff point you choose will be arbitrary.
Malachi makes a good point. There is evidence that MissMapleLeaf is actually TronCat trolling us.

Cells in your body trade nutrients even. We should criminalize that. Blood cells may no longer give oxygen to any other kind of cell! Blood-cell union!
Man, you could probably make one heck of an extended metaphor out of the cooperative processes of the body.

People complain about globalisation as if it is a new phenomena. But international trade on a large scale has been occurring for 100s of years. People benefit from cheap materials. People want the fruits of their labour, no one wants to work, if we can work less and get cheaper and more goods then that is progress. It is true that imports do impact the local industry as if it did not undercut local goods of the same type then it would not be viable to import the goods. But the amount of different types of goods that are viable to import is generally as a result of exchange rate differences and government regulations, tariffs and custom duties. I am not saying that without government distortions it would never be viable to import goods and those goods would never undercut local industry. I am just saying that the government distortions contribute to a lot of those problems.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with opening up the market to an international market. Everyone can try and copy inventions from people not only in their own country but all around the world and thanks to the internet we can share ideas from around the world a lot quicker and easier than ever before. it realy is a great time to be in the business of innovation.
