SANTA CLARITA, Calif. – The Lady Mustangs took an unusual late-season break from conference play and faced New Hope Christian (OR) (11-15) Thursday night in Bross Gym. TMC took the Deacons in an 83-49 victory and elevated their overall record to 22-2.
While the Lady Mustangs spaced themselves by 34 points at the end of regulation play, the evening began in favor of the Deacons. Besides a quick 5-2 lead in the opening three minutes of the first half, the Lady Mustangs struggled to pull ahead as they faced four ties and trailed the Deacons by as many as six points over the next twelve minutes.
This all changed when Jacquelyn Marshall (San Clemente, CA) sank a three-pointer with four minutes left in the first half, putting the Mustangs up 27-25. From there, the Lady Mustangs went on a 9-4 run fueled by a Zoe Scott (Spokane, WA) three-pointer, two free throws and a jumper by Lena Rivera (Allen, TX), and a jumper by Shannon Kingery (West Hills, CA), giving the Lady Mustangs a 36-29 advantage going into the half.
At the break, Marshall led the Lady Mustangs with eight points and six rebounds. Despite TMC's lead, the Deacons finished the half with a better field goal accuracy of 45% (14-31), eclipsing the Lady Mustangs 38% (14-37).
Whitney Best (Snohomish, WA) opened up the second half with a three-pointer, giving the Lady Mustangs a 10-point lead. From there, TMC controlled the entirety of the final stanza, posting a final score of 83-49. With 44 seconds left in the game, Kimmy Iverson (San Marcos, CA) sank a three-pointer giving the Lady Mustangs their largest lead of the night of 34 points. Marshall led the Mustangs in the second half with 11 points, followed by Nichole Nitake (Torrance, CA) and Iverson who each posted nine points. Notably, Nitake finished the night by going 4-6 on three-pointers. Kelly Burns (Yorba Linda, CA), Scott, Rivera, and Iverson all yanked down three rebounds apiece.
At the end of the night, four Lady Mustangs posted scores in double digits: Marshall (19), and Scott, Rivera, and Burns each chipping in 12 more. Marshall also paced the Mustangs with nine rebounds. Best and Rivera each dished out four assists while Burns made four steals. The Lady Mustangs produced 42% (32-75) accuracy at the end of night.
The Lady Mustangs now focus on their final five games, all of which are against Golden State Athletic Conference teams. Next up for TMC is Biola (11-13 overall and 2-7 in conference play) which will visit Bross Gym on Saturday night.
"Biola's a great team," assessed Mustang head coach Dan Waldeck. "We're going to have to play a lot better than we did tonight to be able to stay in the game with them."
Tip-off is slated for 5:30 PM.

Mika Hakkinen started his final F1 season ten years ago.
The 1998 and 1999 world champion went on to race in the DTM and is now helping Finnish driver Valtteri Bottas on the way to an F1 seat.
Hakkinen talked exclusively to F1 Fanatic about his time in F1, his rivalry with Michael Schumacher – and what it's like to discover your new car is a potential championship-winner.
F1 Fanatic: It's ten years since your last F1 season – it seems to have gone very quickly. What have you been doing since then?
Mika Hakkinen: The time is really flying, that's true. When I think about all these years it feels just like yesterday.
The time when you are in Formula 1, your life is so incredibly attached to the sport. Formula 1 takes from your life 24 hours a day. It?������s not going into an office in the morning and leaving in the afternoon. It?������s unbelievable, one hundred percent commitment to the job.
So in these ten years a lot of things have been happening. I?������ve been experiencing a family life, I have three children in my life, so it?������s been an amazing time. There have been bad moments, of course, and incredibly positive moments, but it?������s just life.
In the racing world I experienced the DTM for three years with Mercedes. It brought me back years because I was racing with young guys and it was interesting to see their mentality and commitment for the sport ?����ǣthe girls as well, not only the boys.
F1F: You described how intense life is when you?������re in Formula 1. When did you decide first to take a sabbatical from it, and then to leave it completely?
MH: It?������s never so clear-cut to be honest. My career in Formula 1 was very complicated, let?������s say it this way. Of course I had my accident in ?������95 and [after that] I had to use much more effort to do my performance in Formula 1 compared to other racing drivers.
I was not able to go so far with my career in Formula 1 as other drivers ?����ǣ in terms of time, I don?������t mean the results, I got the result that I was looking for.
I had to stop racing probably four or five years earlier than others because I was just finished. I felt that physically and mentally I was not doing the right stuff for myself and I was not doing the right stuff for the team and it was time to get new, young drivers to take my position and perform.
That was my decision. To be honest, it started after my accident. Not directly, you know, but something happened in my thinking and after ?������95 I was still driven by the dream that I was going to be world champion, I was going to do everything for that and I was going to keep fighting.
As soon as I had that goal I thought ?���?�that?������s it?���?�. I was slowly realising in my mind that life has given to me so much, my sport has given me so much, I don?������t want to try to step on ice and see if it?������s strong enough any more, because I know what it feels like when you fall through.
F1F: You talked about how much the sport has given you: what was the time you enjoyed most in your career?
MH: That?������s a really good question. Every year there was something. Motor racing gave me a great education in what you cannot just learn from reading books and going to university ?����ǣ those things are great but Formula 1 gave me something to educate myself in everyday life and the business world.
If you particularly want a year that was something I think years like ?������97, that was an extremely fantastic year.
F1F: A breakthrough year?
MH:A breakthrough, yeah, I would say so. ?������97 was a great year. Then going back I would say ?������94 was an incredible year.
But I have to be honest every year there was something amazing. Without doing much I could think [of something] in a year I learned that which gave me the step towards the experience of winning the world championship one day.
I always picked up a lot of things every year which I could together and then attack. You cannot just one year, look in the mirror and say ?���?�I?������m ready to win everything?���?�. No, you have to continue working, year after year, collecting this knowledge in your head.
And then when you can put all these together and have a clear mind, you can do it. Bu, of course, you?������ve got to be in the right team, you cannot do it alone, so I was grateful to be in a fantastic team with McLaren and we did it.
F1F: Which drivers at the moment are gaining the benefit of your experience?
MH: I?������m taking care of [Williams reserve driver] Valtteri Bottas with Didier Coton?������s management team. He?������s doing GP3 this year.
For me it?������s unbelievably positive to talk about my experiences in the past, when I was in Formula 1. But I have learned in my career, I had great management team behind me ?����ǣ Didier Coton and Keke Rosberg and Keke?������s sister.
But at the end of the day, yes you can help and advise the driver, you can do a lot of things in the background, but at the end of the day the driver has to learn for himself. He has to study the life study the sport and put everything on the correct way. That?������s why it is always good to give.
The basics of the driver have to be right. The parents have to do the right work when the driver is a kid and doing go-karting, the parents have to do the right education so the young man or girl one day can take information in the right way. They can use it to suit their style in their life because everybody is individual and different.
F1F: Is the life you had in Formula 1 something you?������d want for your children, if they wanted it?
MH: Oh, definitely. I think that being a Grand Prix driver is the best job in the world. It?������s absolutely fantastic.
It?������s hard work but, hey, it?������s a great job!
F1F: You had a lot of testing opportunities with McLaren and Lotus when you came into F1. But there?������s not as many chances for young drivers to do that today. Is this a problem F1 needs to sort out for drivers like Valtteri?
MH: I don?������t say it?������s a problem because every driver who is coming into Formula 1 is in the same situation.
So I?������ll just tell you: I don?������t think it is a problem. Because if there?������s a problem somewhere there?������s always ways to mange that problem and analyse that problem.
F1F: Turning to F1 today, what?������s your view on the adjustable rear wings ?����ǣ a positive step for a F1 or a gimmick?
People have been thinking a lot about this wing. There has been a lot of thought, a lot of reasons why it is like that.
Personally I think, from the drivers?������ point of view, it makes life more interesting. But we?������ll find out how it works when the season starts.
F1F: Fernando Alonso recently said ?���?�the most dangerous rival for me is always Michael [Schumacher]?���?�. Some people were surprised by that because Michael had a tough season last year. Do you understand what Fernando means when he says that?
MH: I understand that every driver has their opinions, their feelings, before the start of the season. The drivers are always being asked questions before the season starts. So that?������s just one thing that?������s been picked up from these comments.
In my opinion when you?������re starting a season in Grand Prix racing you have to focus on working with your team at the highest level possible. And the first driver you have to beat is your team mate so he?������s the biggest threat. That?������s the reality. Then comes the rest.
And you can, of course, look at the drivers in the Grand Prix field in 2011 and look at the level of professionalism it is absolutely amazing what the level of performance Grand Prix drivers today are delivering. They?������re doing a great job in terms of the physical side, marketing side, professionally with the team, the performance they do at the track, the technical knowledge they have ?����ǣ the list is long.
I would not pinpoint one driver out there and say ?���?�this is my threat for 2011?���?�. This is just my way of thinking. Michael is definitely a driver who I have experienced in the past, he?������s an amazing individual who can work very hard and not give up even when thing are not going so well. He keeps going until he gets the result. And he has shown that in his career when he was racing in any category.
So when we are heading for the first Grand Prix of the season we will know who will perform and who will not. And it?������s not only about the driver himself who will be doing the result, it?������s also the team. Both sides have to deliver the maximum attack performance.
F1F: After your rivalry with Michael it?������s amusing to see you now appearing in adverts together.
MH: I talked with Michael, we talked about last year and the future. It was good, I could see he has this incredible commitment now he has decided to go back to Formula 1.
It was funny doing the commercial with him together and overtaking him. We enjoyed doing it. There?������s humour in it and it gives people the opportunity to laugh about the past.
Yes, when we were racing it was very tough and very serious. But at the end of the day it?������s just a sport and when we did the commercials it was nice. I think you always have to put the humour in your life because otherwise you just don?������t survive. You have to learn to laugh and have fun.
F1F: It looked a bit easier overtaking him in that advert than it was in Spa in 2000.
MH: Oh yeah! Much easier.
F1F: Sebastian Vettel drove this incredible car last year, designed by Adrian Newey, who was also behind your world championship-winning cars. What is it that makes his cars different and special?
MH: How could I say it? What Adrian was able to do, in my opinion, was really think about everything. Every single part of the car has gone through a lot of thinking and he was able to create this car that could perform at the highest level and be better than any other.
I can?������t really explain it. I?������ve driven many cars in the past and I know there have been possibilities for people to design these cars however they want. But Adrian was able to find ultimate performance in every part of the car. Whatever it is, he was able to do that.
The cars he did for me, in 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001, were just amazing. I was many times working with him, looking at the numbers and collaborating, looking at this and that and how much downforce it was developing. He understood the language when you communicated, what problems the driver was experiencing. He was able to understand what you need.
F1F: What?������s it like when you drive a car like the [1998] MP4-13 for the first time ?����ǣ and realise that you?������ve got a car that could win the world championship?
MH: Oh yeah it?������s an unbelievable feeling. When I first drove that car, when I was driving out of the pit lane and I was steering the wheel and changing gear I thought ?���?�what is going on here? This is it!?���?�
I didn?������t even have to get to the first corner, I felt on the steering this was it. I went on the accelerator and felt the traction and the acceleration of the car and I thought, ?���?�hey, we?������ve got something here?���?�.
You want to jump up and down in the pit lane and say ?���?�I?������ve got it, I?������ve got the best car here?���?� ?����ǣ but you cannot do that! The team are keeping their feet on the ground and you know that even if you have a good car, the season is long and people will be catching and developing their car. So you just have to keep your emotions down and keep working, making it even better.
Adrian and the McLaren team, the engineers and mechanics, they gave me this great car and we had a meeting and said ?���?�that?������s where we are, now we just have to get even better.?���?�
It was about creating the overall package and complete performance because it?������s not just about the clock that says you are fast, you have to have so many elements right to win the world championship. The driver?������s part in that moment is even more important because you really have to start working seriously hard.
When you have the chance to win the world championship that?������s the only chance you get. It?������s maybe never going to happen again in your life if you miss it once. You have to do everything you can to win it that year when you have the chance.

FrightFest to open with The Dead 2: India
Genre festival to close with Big Bad Wolves.
Film4 FrightFest will open its 2013 edition with The Ford Brothers' The Dead 2: India [pictured] and will close with the UK premiere of Aharon Keshales & Navot Papushado's revenge thriller Big Bad Wolves.
The Dead 2 is the first international zombie film to shoot in India; it is directed, written and produced by UK team Howard and Jon Ford. Their original The Dead was set in Africa.
The sequel is about an India-based American engineer (Joseph Millson) who needs the help of an orphan (Anand Goyal) to reach his pregnant girlfriend (Meenu) 300 miles away during a zombie apocalypse.
They said: "It's truly an honour to be the opening film – mind-blowing! Being at FrightFest for The Dead was such an incredible experience for us and one of the highlights of our whole journey with the film. It's an awesome event with a brilliant crowd and we both sincerely cannot wait to see you all there!"
Big Bad Wolves, from the team behind the acclaimed Rabies, follows three men entangled in a series of brutal murders: a victim's father, a vigilante police detective, and the main suspect.
Keshales and Papushado said today: "We always dreamt of having a film which would be good enough to be shown at FrightFest, but not even in our wildest dreams did we think that an Hebrew-language revenge thriller would get us there. FrightFest is really making history here. As a token of our appreciation we promise to give everyone there a night they won't easily forget".
Film4 FrightFest Co-director Alan Jones said: "Film4 FrightFest is delighted with our Opening and Closing Film choices. Both The Dead 2: India and Big Bad Wolves represent everything FrightFest is about; the discovery, nurturing and celebration of vital new voices in the genre. FrightFest launched the Ford Brothers' The Dead to worldwide acclaim in 2010 and Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado's Rabies in 2011 became the only movie in our entire 14-year history to warrant successive extra screenings based on overwhelming want-to-see demand. So to welcome both duos back with their stunning new movies, both exploring unusual cultural aspects within a remarkable genre framework is an absolute thrill. These films bookend Film4 FrightFest perfectly and hint at what we are trying to achieve this year - the best platform to deliver our broadest, most diverse and most surprising event ever."
FrightFest will run Aug 22-26 at the Empire Cinema in London's Leicester Square. The full lineup will be announced on June 28.

We're taking a trip to Frankfurt this week (work related, Mrs. G will have to put in a few hours every day) and I've been doing some research, but then I figured, why not ask here? Has anybody been? Can you recommend places to eat and what foods we should try? Things to do? Apparently they are famous for their Apfelwein (like an apple cider), not so much for their local beer (although I'm sure there will be plenty of other German beers to drink). We'll be there for about a week and we're really looking forward to it. Would love to hear some recommendations if you got any.
And just in case you follow my blog regularly, don't think I've abandoned you. I've lined up 4 or 5 (still waiting on the fifth) of my favorite bloggers to do guest posts for me while we're gone. One of them being a fellow Egghead, Chris at Nibble Me This. Should be interesting to see what they are cooking up.
Anyway, any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

PHILADELPHIA – It was a Sunday filled with plenty of volleyball as day two of the Crowne Plaza Philadelphia West Penn Invitational came to a close with exciting wins for the University of Pennsylvania volleyball team. The Quakers (3-4) played in two of the day's five matches, first facing-off with Temple University -- 25-23, 13-25, 19-25, 25-21, 16-14 -- and closing with Weber State University -- 17-25, 26-24, 17-25, 25-18, 15-10.
The Red and Blue pushed both matches to five sets, which were the only in the tournament, and the matches were nothing short of thrilling to watch.
Day two opened for the Quakers at noon in the Palestra against Big 5 rival Temple. Set one began with the normal back-and-forth until senior captain Kristen Etterbeek came down with a kill, tying the score at five. Etterbeek stood behind the line to serve, helping the Quakers to a 7-5 advantage. It wasn't until a service error by Owl Jennifer Iacobini, giving Penn a 18-16 lead, that the Quakers were able to maintain the point advantage and finish on top, 25-23.
The second and third sets were a bit of a struggle for Penn on offense but it turned around in set four.
An attack error by Owl Gabriella Matautia gave Penn the first point. A few serves later, a hard kill by freshman Arielle Winfield started an energized four-point streak, followed by a service ace from sophomore Alex Caldwell, block by Winfield and sophomore Jasmine DeSilva, and ended with another hard kill by Winfield. The Owls gradually caught up with the Quakers and even had a point advantage, but the Red and Blue saw to it and went on another four-point streak, ending the match with an exclamation point by Etterbeek, who smoldered the Owls with two kills in a row and claimed the fourth set victory, 25-21.
Penn started set five strong and with a lot of momentum. The Quakers reached eight first (8-5) and kept the Owls at bay. Anticipation was high and the Owls gave the Quakers quite a scare when they took the advantage 14-13. A kill by DeSilva led to the 14-point tie and it was only a matter of time before one of the teams won by two. Etterbeek slammed two attacks in a row to solidify the W against Temple.
The Quakers reached an impressive team block total of 12 and made Head Coach Kerry Carr excited and proud of her team.
Three players finished with double-digits in kills: DeSilva (19), Etterbeek (16), and Caldwell (10). Caldwell also picked up 29 assists and 14 digs. Sophomore Alexis Genske led in digs with 30.
The Quakers took the court later with Weber State --the last opponent of the day and the final match of the invitational.
Weber State looked confident and took set one. Penn, who wouldn't let them claim two in a row, fought through a four-point run at the end by the Wildcats to take set two.
Set three got away from the Quakers, who slipped to an 8-2 deficit. The difference was too much and the Wildcats took set three.
Everything seemed to turn around in set four for the Quakers. The stamina and enthusiasm the Wildcats were bringing each set diminished and it showed in the score. The Red and Blue seemed to gain what the Wildcats lacked.
Penn had come alive.
Endurance was high and held a 21-14 lead. A few serves later, the Quakers brought the heat with a kill by junior Trina Ohms, holding off Weber State 25-18.
It didn't take long for Penn to pull away in the fifth set, again reaching eight first (8-5). The Red and Blue laid it all on the line and never let up, taking the last three points of the game. A kill by Wildcat Rebecca Fuchs was the last point Weber State would score. Etterbeek blasted two more kills, setting up the match point. Ohms received a nice set by Cladwell and locked the win with another set ending kill, 15-10.
The Quakers will rest this week and prepare for the Villanova University Tournament (September 20-21) where they will play Norfolk State, Sacred Heart, and host Villanova.

The always-industrious Matthew Eddy posted some minor league transactions over at Baseball America. There are some names that could potentially help the Mets, and I've broken down a few of my favorites here.
Just to get ahead of the reaction from some quarters every time I bring up minor moves like this- no, none of these players are likely to turn the franchise around by themselves. But that's not how turning a franchise around works. Even if the Mets were operating under normal financial conditions, the way to win is by squeezing talent out of every avenue it is available. Minor league free agents are one such avenue, particularly for a franchise lacking in depth at the upper minor league levels.
So, with that in mind, let's get to a few of my favorites on Eddy's newest list:
Matt Liuzza, C: Just released by the Toronto Blue Jays, Liuzza had a down year, posting a .224/.325/.373 line at mostly Double-A. He only posted 154 plate appearances, thanks to a back injury that kept him out from May until August. But he returned near the end of the season, and is just a year removed from posting a .251/.389/.456 line in High-A ball. He's 27, so time is running short for him, but with catchers often developing later offensively, and the Mets with a real depth problem at the position organization-wide, I'd love to see Liuzza picked up and given the chance to catch regularly in Binghamton or Buffalo. His position and control of the strike zone make him worth a shot.
Brandon Boggs, OF: A minor league free agent most recently with Milwaukee, Boggs is a wise pickup for the Mets for similar reasons to Liuzza. He's got terrific control of the strike zone, and he plays center field, a position of need for New York. Boggs put up a .241/.381/.419 line for Triple-A Nashville in 2011, and is a year removed from hitting .290/.406/.470 in Triple-A Oklahoma City. Yes, offensive stats in the Pacific Coast League should be taken skeptically (though Jeff Sackmann/Dan Szymborski had the team's home park playing as a slight pitcher-friendly environment), but Boggs, who will be 29, seems to possess skills that Jason Pridie clearly doesn't.
Anthony Slama, P: Most recently with Minnesota, I can't begin to understand why Slama, who has a career minor league ERA of 2.08 and 12.2 strikeouts per nine innings, didn't get a chance to pitch with the Twins. He'll be 28 next year, and for a team in need of bullpen help, this is how you do it- grabbing a bunch of Slama-types, and see what sticks. Hope he is in camp most of all.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough, on Friday's Today show, remarked how similar the Eric Massa case was to the Mark Foley sex scandal in 2006, and back then Scarborough went with Matt Lauer's premise that Hastert should be "Thrown under the bus" - a point some Republicans and conservatives agreed with then. However when NBC's Meredith Vieira questioned if Pelosi needed to testify, let alone resign, over the Massa mess Scarborough demurred: "I don't think so." So much for holding a Democratic Speaker to the same standards.
The following is what Scarborough told Lauer on the October 4, 2006 Today show:
MATT LAUER: So in other words, are you saying that the Republicans, to turn those numbers around, are going to have to--for lack of a better expression--throw somebody under the bus other than Mark Foley?
JOE SCARBOROUGH: They're going to have, they're going to have to throw Denny Hastert under the bus. But I-
LAUER: You think he should resign?
SCARBOROUGH: I think politically if the Repub-, the Republicans have to do something dramatic. Ray LaHood, a congressman also from Illinois who came in 1994 with Foley and myself, said that just the other day. They have to do something dramatic. Of course, Matt, I just got to tell you, I think whatever they do will be too little too late. This is the final straw that broke the camel's back. Again, Republicans never trusted Bob Woodward. I mean, the thing is, it's the base that's going to be upset by the Foley scandal that will end up dooming the Republican majority. I think Nancy Pelosi's the next speaker of the House.
LAUER: Joe Scarborough, interesting prediction.
Fast forward to 2010 and Scarborough is singing a different tune, saying Pelosi doesn't even have to testify about the Massa fiasco:
MEREDITH VIEIRA: Do you think Nancy Pelosi will be called before this hearing and, and, and asked to say what she knew and when she knew it?
JOE SCARBOROUGH: I don't think so, but, but I don't think she has to do it. I don't think there has to be one of those great Howard Baker moments in Watergate.
The following is the relevant exchange between Scarborough and Vieira as it was aired on the March 12 Today show:
MEREDITH VIEIRA: Joe Scarborough, host of MSNBC's Morning Joe is a former Republican member of Congress...
JOE SCARBOROUGH: I didn't know this guy, though, I swear! No lunch dates, nothing!
VIEIRA: Nothing, nothing?
SCARBOROUGH: Nothing, nothing.
VIEIRA: It's way after your time.
SCARBOROUGH: Wasn't in the Navy, nothing.
VIEIRA: Alright, the House has weighed in.
SCARBOROUGH: Right.
VIEIRA: They want the Ethics committee to continue its investigation of Massa's behavior and what the Democratic leadership knew about it. So now the committee has to decide whether to do that. Right?
SCARBOROUGH: Right.
VIEIRA: They can cast their own vote. You've got five Republicans, five Democrats, which means at least one Democrat has to side with the Republicans here. Do you think that somebody will and that indeed they'll go forward with this?
SCARBOROUGH: I think they will, only because yesterday they had a vote on the floor. I think it was 402 to 1.
VIEIRA: Right.
SCARBOROUGH: That they needed to investigate this. Democrats know this is deja vu all over again. I can't believe how similar this situation-
VIEIRA: To the Foley situation?
SCARBOROUGH: -is to Mark Foley's a couple years ago. And so I see John Boehner up there going, "Well, you know maybe we were hiding or, or she was hiding something and staffers weren't protected." And of course, it was John Boehner who was in the middle of the Foley mess a couple years ago, where Republicans said, "We didn't know until this point," and then the investigations start-
VIEIRA: Right. And he was accused of a cover-up then.
SCARBOROUGH: Right. And, and so then we find out later after the investigation starts that they actually knew a month before, a month. So, so this is so much like Foley. And again, the importance of it is that this sort of story gets on the late-night shows, everybody talks about it, and it gives Republicans a nice bow to put on their box of culture of corruption which you sell in the fall-
VIEIRA: So, it's really not about-
SCARBOROUGH: -which is what happened with Foley. Foley was a small situation. It was bad for what he did, but it had very little to do with deficits or debt, but it was a great punch line for Democrats. It was the bow on top of a lot of other scandals.
VIEIRA: So it really doesn't have much to do with Massa's behavior anymore. It's about embarrassing the Democratic leadership?
SCARBOROUGH: It's about keeping this story going as long as it can, because when you do that, it's on The Daily Show, it's on Leno, it's on Letterman. Just like Mark Foley. We heard about Foley for a month or so, and we all laughed about it, but Republicans were slow. It's so funny, with all the things that went wrong with the Republicans from 2001 to 2006, when Foley broke, everybody was like, "Okay, that's it, it's over!" This is, Americans will wake up and say, "Those guys are out of control." Democrats are now concerned same thing may happen here.
VIEIRA: Do you think Nancy Pelosi will be called before this hearing and, and, and asked to say what she knew and when she knew it?
SCARBOROUGH: I don't think so, but, but I don't think she has to do it. I don't think there has to be one of those great Howard Baker moments in Watergate. If Republicans keep this story alive, then it will hurt the Democratic Party, especially now. My God, the timing with health care reform, that's the big issue. That's what will determine whether Barack Obama has a successful first two years or not.

Sandy Continues Push Towards New Jersey [VIDEO]
The National Weather Service says it's not a matter of "if" Sandy will hit New Jersey but "when."
New Jersey will begin to feel the effects of Sandy today as winds begin to pick up and heavy rains starts to fall in southern areas and moving north.
Not much has changed in the National Weather Service forecast since a briefing was issued Saturday night called for "strong damaging sustained winds" of 35-50 MPH from from Sandy as it arrives as more of an intense Nor'easter than a hurricane. "Major to record flooding" is expected on along rivers & streams and along the coast along with "extremely heavy rainfall." The strongest winds are expected east and south of the I-95 corridor.
Sustained wind gusts of 75 MPH are expected along the coast.
The NWS warns that even if the track of the storm changes, New Jersey is still in the path of a "dangerous storm." High tides on Monday will be the most dangerous for the barrier islands, which are under a mandatory evacuation by Governor Christie as of 4PM Sunday afternoon. Expected record high tides will likely cut the barrier island communities off from the mainland.
Governor Christie on Saturday declared a state of emergency, traveling to East Keansburg and North Wildwood after meeting with his cabinet at the Office of Emergency Management "bunker" in West Trenton where he plans to ride out the storm.
All across New Jersey stores were inundated as water, generators, flashlights and batteries were taken off shelves. Lines wrapped around gas stations for a final fill-up before the storm.
NJ Transit is preparing for a possible shutdown and tolls on the entire westbound Atlantic City Expressway are suspended as of 6AM Sunday morning. The northbound Garden State Parkway will also be toll free from Cape May to the Driscoll Bridge.
Utilities are warning customers to be ready for long outages. Christie says his office understands the need for conditions to improve before crews head out but will also be watching to make sure there are no unnecessary delays in restoring power.
Toms River has postponed its annual Halloween Parade to a date to be announced following the storm.
Atlantic City's 12 casinos will close on Sunday for only the fourth time in the 34-year history of legalized gambling here. The approach of Hurricane Irene shut down the casinos for three days last August.
Atlantic City officials said they would begin evacuating the city's 30,000 residents at noon Sunday, busing them to mainland shelters and schools.

Hello all.
I have a question regarding Python. I feel very silly asking this question as, given how quickly various Python sites and books quickly breeze over this section, it seems I should be able to perform this particular task quite easily. The task in question is calling a program via Python using the text, "python test.py".
For starters, I own a Mac. I have TextWrangler, and have saved programs in ".py" format. I have saved files on my desktop. I currently have a file titled, "test1.py" How would I call this file into Python? I really would like to know how to perform this task. My interactions with Python involve typing the code into the terminal (or the IDLE window which I just discovered how to call by luck), and seeing it appear (string) or executed (line of code). However, I know were I to properly perform the task I request assistance in, I would improve my programming abilities, and be able to write code in TextWrangler and have it appear executed in my Terminal or IDLE window. I know the task involves calling and creating directories but I'm not exactly sure what that means.
Help would be appreciated. Thank you for reading.

Did you know?
The Richtersveld boasts 29 lichen species - more than any other single place in the world.
The Richtersveld World Heritage Site is massive, sprawling over 162 000 hectares. But there are times when you can hardly move further than a few metres with your camera.
A tiny pelargonium in a little hollow, a group of indomitable yellow flowers, a few weirdly-shaped butter-trees, luminous pink mesembs and yellow oxalis conspire to attract your eye and your camera.
Strange little plants will intrigue you: Leaves that look like coins, leaves that look like stems, plants that move your soul because despite the harsh climate they seem so courageous, tenacious and carefree.
Shepherd's trees frame the view. You may find the famous plant called the 'halfmens' (half-human) with its frilly mop of leaves on top – some with a spiky furze of red flowers in spring – always bending to the north.
Over it all is the buzzing of pollinators, and the plaintive call of birds, and a backdrop of rocky mountains that seem to change colour all the time.
Every now and then, you'll come across friendly nomadic farmers with goats and sheep. This tradition of moving herds to different seasonal grazing grounds is centuries old.
This is the Richtersveld Community Conservancy, and it has so much to commend it in terms of human traditions and plant life that it became World Heritage Site in 2007, based on both its cultural and botanical importance.
But the path towards such an honour started with theft.
In the 1990s, the Richtersvelders started to see more tourists coming to visit their remote piece of flower-rich desert.
But they were troubled to see some going offroad into sensitive areas. There were even more perturbed when a few vehicles were seen carrying out loads of indigenous plants.
The destruction alerted the Richtersvelders to how precious and vulnerable their botanical heritage was. In 1997 and 1998, plans for a community conservancy were slowly drawn up. It gave the community control and management options.
Every Richtersveld stakeholder had input – farmers, tourism hosts, provincial and municipal authorities, South African National Parks, small diamond miners, and the councils and representatives from every town.
Turning this 162 000-hectare community conservancy into a World Heritage Site put the crown on a massive conservation effort.

If you are using the CQ5.5 authoring environment to add links to DAM assets through the rich-text editor dialog by drag-and-drop, then you may notice that some of these links will be marked invalid after clicking OK on the dialog.
A invalid link appears like the "banking" text below, whereas a valid link appears like the "investors" text.
You may also see errors similar to the following in the error.log:

The links are marked invalid when the assets in DAM contain spaces, or other characters such as !%$üäö, in the file-name (e.g. GeoSphere_D a tasheet.pdf). Such file-names are being parsed by a URL encoder and the characters get converted by a URL encoder at the wrong place.
You can workaround this issue by creating the link with the in-place editor, and also creating the link manually using the link button in the rte dialog, and selecting the document through the browse function. Only drag&drop directly onto the text in the rte dialog is not working.
This is a product issue with the rich-text widget and has been fixed in later product versions.

May 2, 2005
Genco Opens Battle of San Jacinto Site to Archaeologists
Houston — Texas Genco, LLC has reached an agreement in principle with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to clear the way for archeological research on a parcel of company property believed to contain artifacts from the Battle of San Jacinto.
That battle was fought 169 years ago today, pitting General Sam Houston's Texian army against Mexican troops commanded by Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna.
"While the battle of San Jacinto lasted only about 20 minutes, it was one of the most important and decisive military clashes in Texas and, therefore, U.S. History. At Texas Genco, we're thrilled to be able to open up company property to detailed archeological research that might provide historians more information about this seminal moment in the life of our state and nation," said Texas Genco Vice-President Don McArthur.
"The chance to study this part of the battlefield not managed by TPWD is a tremendous opportunity to increase our knowledge of the battle's end. We hope to find patterns of artifacts that will show us the route of the Mexican Army's flight across the east Texas prairie and marshes, and we certainly appreciate Texas Genco helping us in our research," said Michael Strutt, Director of Cultural Resources for TPWD. "This information will help us to better interpret the battle for the public." Strutt also noted that Texas Parks and Wildlife is working closely with the Port of Houston Authority to conduct archeological survey on their lands adjacent to Texas Genco's power line right of way.
The property lies principally to the south of the main battlefield, on land that is part of Texas Genco's S.R. Bertron power plant site. Texas Genco intends to provide researchers access to the property for an archeological dig as well as any other research activities that are deemed warranted.
According to McArthur, "We intend to work with the Parks and Wildlife Department to make sure archeologists have access to the land and can learn everything possible from it."

TAMPA, Fla. – In their first NCAA South Region appearance since 2009, the Saint Leo volleyball team fell to the Florida Southern Mocs by a 3-2 score (29-27, 25-21, 23-25, 19-25, 15-11), Thursday night from the Martinez Center on the campus of the University of Tampa.
Florida Southern took the first point of the match, but Saint Leo quickly responded, regaining the lead at 9-8 in the first set. After the Lions forced a three point lead, the Mocs were able to tie the score at 15-15. Five lead changes later, both teams battled for every point, as Florida Southern came up with the 29-27 set victory.
After a short break, the Lions came out swinging, taking a quick lead until the Mocs gained a 14-13 lead halfway through the set. Soon after, Saint Leo tied the score at 14-14, but Florida Southern surged ahead to 25-21 second set victory.
As expected, every point in the third set was a battle for both squads. With no team leading for more than three consecutive plays, the lead changed hands a total of twelve times, and Saint Leo took home a 25-23 set win.
With a Florida Southern point to lead off the fourth set, The Lions refused defeat, earning an exciting 25-19 victory to tie the match at 2-2.
In the fifth and final set of the game, the Florida Southern Moccasins garnered the momentum needed to bring home a 15-11 set win, taking the match.
Despite the loss, junior Lauren Campbell led all players in the match with 16 kills. Senior Jordan Sisson added 12 kills to the effort, while junior Tawni Warren notched ten in the loss. Aiding her offense, senior setter Jaclyn Mailoto collected 43 assists.
Defensively, Yaidimar Santiago led her team in digs with 22, while Campbell tallied 18 and junior Tawni Warren notched 15.
As a team, the Lions collected 55 kills in the effort, tallying 76 digs and nine team blocks. The squad earned a .157 attack percentage.
The Moccasins will face the winner of Tampa and Kentucky State tomorrow at 7:00 p.m. in the Martinez Center on the campus of the University of Tampa.
After being picked eighth in the Sunshine State Conference preseason poll, the Lions end the regular season with an overall record of 23-11 and a second place finish in the SSC. The squad boasted a 10-6 conference record, five All-SSC selections, two AVCA award winners, and three Sunshine State Conference Players of the Week in the 2013 season.

Is the phone going to be unlocked? Are they offering unlimited data? Are they allowing FaceTime on unlimited data?
Would they go half with me on paying AT&T the ETF?
The iphone will be locked until you are finished paying it off.
T-Mobile handsets will remain network locked, can be freed when the device is yours
That is pretty stupid on T-Mo's part. I'm a infrequent traveler and would've like to use my iPhone in India while I'm there for 15 days within my 2 year contract period.
So $99 up front plus $20 for 20 months comes out to $400.
So your actually buying a 16GB iPhone 5 for $499 with a 2yr contract am guessing which is why they would ask for you to pay $20 a month for 20 months since it kinda is the 2yrs just 4months shorter.
Finallllyyyyy!! But will it be jailbreakable? Do you guys think it will come with 6.1.2 or 6.1.3??
I like the idea of them selling the phone for full price and not a subsidized amount... If that is going to help them maintain low prices with their services... It may even become a new business model for other carriers to follow... I personally would rather pail full retail price for phones if the carriers would lower their prices on plans... Time will tell how their plan works... When I jail broke and unlocked the iphone 3G years ago, T-mobile was the only other option aside from AT&T... They were really great... No contract, no deposit, month to month, and I had a unlimited data only plan for a lil over 20 a month... A google voice number and I was smooth sailing on an iPhone for about 80% less $ than AT&T... It was on the Edge network which was kinda slow... But still, T-Mo rocks and has been helping iPhone users out since the first iPhone unlock... Bout time they got in the game for real... Glad AT&T didn't buy them out...
If you want non subsidized prices you can get unlocked iPhones now from apple and use Tmobile sim. 3G, 4G any LTE works in some area. I'm ready to switch if the call/data plans are much cheaper then AT&T. Else, I'd wait a while until t-mobile sorts out the details
^^^ Ditto, I have the same plan, grandfathered in (since they were Voicestream many years ago) at $19.99 a month for unlimited everything, no throttling, truly unlimited. And one of the best things for me is that here in Phoenix they have turned on 4G and LTE today, yippee. Finally...

Explorys, a Cleveland Clinic spinoff, offers a cloud-based performance management platform that taps into a healthcare provider's clinical, financial and operational data to look for previously undiscovered patterns. Among its clients are St. Joseph Health System, MedStar and Catholic Health Partners.
Unlike old-school analytics, which relies on relational databases, the company has enlisted the services of Cloudera, a Hadoop-based software and services firm, to help its engineers and informaticians do the heavy lifting.
The Explorys platform allows providers to do three things: Do searches across patient populations and care venues to help identify disease trends; coordinate rules-driven patient registries; and view performance metrics -- a key ingredient if an organization plans to meet ACO requirements.
Of course, all this firepower is meaningless if it doesn't generate the hard data to demonstrate better quality of care and lower costs.
Anil Jain, M.D., chief medical information officer at Explorys, explained that because the company is relatively young, it has yet to generate those kinds of results. Put another way, there's no proof that it can reduce the number of foot amputations in diabetics or reduce the number of myocardial infarctions in patients with pre-existing heart disease.
But some of the data generated by Explorys suggests it is approaching that target. Working with Catholic Health Partners in Cincinnati, for instance, the analytics platform helped increase pneumonia vaccination rates by 14%, breast cancer screenings by 13% and increased HbA1c testing of diabetics -- a measure of long-term blood glucose control -- by 3%.
A recent report in the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association (JAMIA) outlined an Explorys project that looked at EHR-generated patient data from nearly 1 million patients from several different healthcare systems. The analysis helped clinicians pinpoint those most at risk for blood clots in the extremities and lungs. The analysis took only 125 hours and required minimal manpower for a project that would typically take years to perform using traditional research methods.

Waterfowl Season Getting Off to Wet Start
AUSTIN, Texas — Wetland habitat conditions across much of Texas have gone from one extreme to another entering the Oct. 31 waterfowl season opener in the North and South Duck Zones, creating what some waterfowl biologists see as a mixed bag for migrant birds.
"Considering how dry we've been, we're pretty pleased with what water we've gotten," said Matt Nelson, central coast wetland eco-system project leader for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. "Unfortunately, we don't have the groceries for the ducks because we just got the water and the vegetation hasn't had a chance to respond."
Biologists feared the extended drought that had gripped the Texas coast during the first half of 2009, combined with the aftermath effects on marshes from Hurricane Ike, could be devastating for wintering waterfowl.
Instead, much of East Texas and the coastal prairies and marshes have been inundated with heavy rainfall in recent weeks, leaving some prime public duck hunting areas inaccessible for opening weekend due to flooding.
The Guadalupe Delta Wildlife Management Area, for example, will be closed to public hunting opening weekend and possibly longer, said Nelson.
"The Delta is shut down until further notice," he announced. "We have high hopes there when the water recedes because the marsh was in pretty good shape and they had quite a bit of aquatic vegetation, so they might see a pretty good season once the water goes down."
Other WMAs along the central coast will be accessible for opening weekend, but hunters should temper expectations despite the abundance of water.
"Mad Island water conditions are in good shape, but because the water just arrived, there are very little groceries in the marsh," Nelson offered. "It should be okay for the opener. We're still not seeing many birds, but what is here includes primarily gadwalls, teal and mottled ducks."
The Justin Hurst WMA is also in good shape and most areas are huntable, except for a few compartments that still lack water.
Hunters are reminded that mottled ducks are off-limits during the first five days of the season.
In East Texas, waterfowl biologist Jared Laing is also reporting seeing fewer ducks than usual heading into the season and because of the abundant water throughout the region birds are scattered.
"We've been checking up and down; the birds just aren't here yet," he noted.
After three years under the Hunter's Choice experimental bag, Texas is back to a conventional six-duck limit per day in the aggregate, with the following species and sex restrictions: five mallards (of which only two may be hens), three wood ducks, two scaup, two redheads, one pintail, one canvasback, and one "dusky duck" (mottled duck, Mexican-like duck, black duck and their hybrids).
"The real plus is adding a third wood duck to the bag for 3 woodies per day for the first time in anyone's memory," said Vernon Bevill, TPWD small game and habitat assessment director. "That will be a special plus to East Texas hunters, at least until the main push of ducks begin arriving. That push may be starting today with the heavy snow now hammering the Dakotas and other states to our north and west."
Bevill also reminds North and South Zone hunters not to start taking any mottled ducks opening weekend or for the first five days due to a reduced season length on this species to soften the harvest impact.
Thursday, Nov. 5, is the first day hunters in the North and South Zones can take a dusky duck, however it opens Nov. 2 in the High Plains Mallard Management Unit.
The bag limit on mergansers is 5 daily, of which only 2 may be hooded mergansers and the daily bag on coots is 15.
The first split for the North and South Duck Zones runs through Nov. 29, and then reopens Dec. 12 through Jan. 24.
New this year, purchase of the Federal Duck Stamp will cost $15-$17 depending on where you buy. If purchased through the TPWD license system there is a $2 administrative fee. Your license will indicate Federal Duck Stamp purchase and the physical stamp will be mailed. Purchasers will be given a 45-day grace period to allow for delivery of the actual stamp, which must be signed and affixed to their hunting license. There are other options for purchasing the stamp, either at some major post offices or online.
Waterfowl hunters are reminded they will need to request HIP (Harvest Information Program) certification from the license clerk when purchasing their hunting license this year. HIP certification is required in order to hunt migratory game birds in Texas.
Also new this year, sandhill crane permits may be obtained in person at no cost only through TPWD Law Enforcement offices and TPWD headquarters in Austin. Permits are also available anytime online through TPWD's online license sales and by calling 800-792-1112 (option 5, menu 2) or 512-389-4820 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. For online and phone orders, a confirmation number will be issued in lieu of a permit and a $5 transaction fee will be charged.

I love experimenting in the kitchen! I made these for my parents this summer and they absolutely loved them.
Turkey hot sausage combined with ground beef in pasta sauces is wonderful.
I love bold spices as well as the flavors from steak and cheese subs.
I love to make pizza and I love Italian spices, so I decided why not try a hamburger? Please note this is a revision of the one sent last 8/27, but a made a couple of corrections... thanks!!
I like great Italian food. I wanted to create an Italian-inspired burger with red peppers and tomatoes. The flavors in Great Caesar!
It a favorate a family get togethers. My mom can't believe its Hamburger.

There is a lot of talk going around about the gun control laws and what our Second Amendment world will look like in the future. Part of this argument is about the average citizen's right to own an assault rifle. A picture of an assault rifle nail gun has been flooding Facebook. It is not real, but what if it was?

A letter bomb is a kind of Muggle explosive device that can be placed within correspondence sent by Muggle Mail. If properly wired, the device will detonate upon the opening of the letter.
In 1991, after Harry Potter hesitated in bringing Vernon Dursley the mail, which included his first Hogwarts acceptance letter, Vernon joked that Harry might be "checking for letter bombs" and then chuckled at his own joke.[1]

Our company has been clear coating a polished aluminum diecast part, with a large fall-out rate for outgassing. We have heard about the "Metabrite" hard anodizing process, through an advertisement by Fort Wayne Anodizing. Supposedly, this process can make a part as shiny as if it had been polished. Could this part be clear coated, with a reduction in "outgassing"? B. L.
I am not familiar with the "Metabrite" process. However, anodized aluminum parts have been successfully powder coated for more than 25 years. Applying a clear coating over a part that has been anodized should be relatively easy, as long as the product's surface is clean. It sounds as if this new process may greatly reduce the polishing efforts currently expended on your parts. However, I highly doubt that this process will affect your outgassing problems. To reduce outgassing, I recommend that you follow the more traditional methods of preheating, sealing the casting and using an outgassing powder coating formulation.

MBA President David W. White Jr. announced the formation of a Drug Policy Task Force during a Sentencing Symposium hosted by the MBA at the Statehouse Tuesday, Oct. 23. The task force will examine current drug policy and consider reforms.
"We look to build a coalition from a broad spectrum of the Massachusetts health care, business and law enforcement communities. The coalition will take a hard look at the difficult questions of drug addiction and punishment of drug-related crimes," said White, who offered welcoming remarks at the symposium.
"This is one part of our effort to improve sentencing in Massachusetts. Reforms of the current sentencing system will reduce crime, rebuild families and communities and save money," White said.
White's announcement came at the end of the two-hour symposium in the Statehouse Great Hall, where key leaders suggested the state could see meaningful sentencing reform for the first time in years. Two panels of legislators, advocates and attorneys discussed the political, financial and ethical issues surrounding the state's sentencing structure and Criminal Offender Record Information system.
"I'm more optimistic than ever that we can have a useful discussion," said panelist Sen. Robert S. Creedon Jr., Senate chairman of the Joint Committee on the Judiciary.
Several panelists, including Suffolk County Sheriff Andrea Cabral, said mandatory minimum sentences make it difficult to treat inmates with drug addictions and to offer rehabilitation and training programs.
"The sheriffs, we are on the forefront of re-entry programs, but we are stymied by mandatory minimums that don't allow us to classify people for acceptance into some of our programs," Cabral said.
The other panelists were:
Following the symposium, White testified before the Joint Committee on the Judiciary about the MBA's objection to reinstating the death penalty in Massachusetts. Symposium panelist Leahy and Boston Bar Association President Anthony Doniger, among others, joined White to testify.
White testified on behalf of the MBA, outlining the association's position against reinstating the death penalty because it would cause economic hardship for the state. It costs more money to execute a person than to sentence them to life imprisonment without parole. Because of that, reinstating the death penalty would mean higher taxes and redirecting millions of dollars toward executions.
"As other states have already found, the death penalty process imposes a staggering drain on economic resources. Virtually every Massachusetts citizen would feel the effects of the high cost of trying death penalty cases," White said.
