The Division focuses on the poorest and most vulnerable developing countries in the world. Specifically, it aims to increase understanding of the development problems of Africa and the Least Developed Countries (LDCs), as well as countries with specific geographical impediments, notably Landlocked Developing Countries (LLDCs) and Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
The Division proposes policies for actions to support inclusive and sustainable development.
Over 90 developing countries fall under the Division's areas of work.
The results of three national assessments on women's entrepreneurship development (WED) in East Africa conducted using a new framework developed by ILO and UNCTAD, through its Division on Technology and Logistics, found that ICTs are increasingly important for women entrepreneurs. Thanks to the rapid spread of mobile telephony and improved international broadband connectivity, there are now more opportunities to leverage such technologies in support of entrepreneurship.
Three UNCTAD meetings on development in Angola called for efforts to upgrade agriculture and to educate and train women to ensure that economic growth leads to broader progress.

The lazy days of summer – are you feeling them yet? The calendar says it's officially here, but we're just as busy as ever in my house, with certain things even causing stress, making me count the days until we can leave town for some much needed down time on our favorite beach.
My style of vacation cooking is pretty simple; the only tool I bring along to our rental cottage is my favorite chef's knife, since the kitchen there is supplied with the major essential – a lobster pot.

Dodgeville, Wis. -- Canvas Lands' End is reinventing the pop-up concept by taking it online with the first-ever blog-up shop. The result is Arrivals, a virtual pop-up shop series curated by eight well-known fashion and lifestyle bloggers. Each shop will function as its own mini e-commerce site and will feature fall and holiday looks styled by the blogger in his or her unique style that readers can purchase.
The shops will live on the individual bloggers' sites for a week and on the Canvas Lands' End site where all shops will be compiled. The first of eight Arrivals shops launched on Oct. 30, with shops continuing to roll out weekly through the end of the year.
The Arrivals shops will each contain three looks styled by the blogger. In addition, the bloggers will provide content to help shoppers put their own looks together. This will include a behind-the-scenes look at the bloggers' styling processes, their must-have pieces and tips on where to wear the look. All content within the shops will also be fully sharable with easily accessed links that enable people to post the looks on their social channels, including Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter; #CanvasArrivals will be used to help track the conversation.
Finally, in addition to supporting their Arrivals shop by hosting it on their sites, the partner bloggers will be pushing out the content through their own social channels and on subsequent blog posts.

Retired New York Giants tight end Gary Shirk is among three former All-Ohio Valley Conference student-athletes who will be inducted into the Morehead State Athletics Hall of Fame this Fall, joining men's basketball all-time leading scorer Ricky Minard and men's basketball career assist leader Marquis Sykes as the others.
"The Athletic Hall of Fame is the ultimate individual accolade our department can award," Director of Athletics Brian Hutchinson said. "It's my pleasure to welcome these outstanding individuals to that list. Ricky, Marquis and Gary are three of the most decorated athletes in MSU history. We are excited to induct them into our Hall of Fame."
Shirk, a First-Team All-OVC choice in 1972, caught 96 passes for 1,236 yards and five touchdowns in his Morehead State career, twice leading the team in receptions (1970 and 1972).
Following the conclusion of his college career, Shirk played seven seasons with the New York Giants (1976-1982), hauling in 130 receptions for 1,640 yards and 11 touchdowns — most coming courtesy of another Morehead State Athletics Hall of Fame member, Phil Simms.
In addition to the Giants, Shirk also played for the Memphis Southmen of the World Football League (WFL) and Memphis Showboats of the United States Football League (USFL).
Shirk was also inducted into the Kentucky Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010.

Yee-hah! Hockey in Texas!
Sean Avery makes his return to Dallas, his first since his "sloppy" exit. He's going to play where he finished the last game, with Artem Anisimov and Marian Gaborik. Those three had some good stuff going — I thought it was one of Avery's best games, and one of Gaborik's best, too.
John Tortorella told reporters in Big D that Avery is going to get minutes because he deserves them off of last game, but I'd bet that even if Avery hadn't had that game, Tortorella would ride him tonight. Why? Because a motivated Avery is the good Avery, the annoyingly effective Avery that we often see vs. the Devils, Flyers and Islanders. I expect him to be flying and yapping and taking Stars down with him tonight.
Ryan McDonagh makes his NHL debut in place of Michal Rozsival (ribs). There are no pruchas.

Didn't see that one coming... Flannagan, Hasay and Erdmann...
Me neither. I mean I saw Flannagan, but Hasay at 2 in the 10,000? Really cool.
Looks like Flannagan wants to go for the 5,000 just to "see what [she] can do." Definitely an inspiring runner.

"I changed the table number Font to match the other paper items that will be issued to guests at the wedding. It was extremely easy and it works perfectly! I wish I could have personalized it a bit more but I am very happy with my experience and the finished product. These place cards are absolutely beautiful."
"Ordering was easy. My notes about what to print were followed precisely. I wish the print had been a tiny bit bigger, but they came exactly as pictured. I just forgot how small place cards are!"
"These are very nice also. It leaves alot of room for you to fill in your guests names and same as before, the colors are just vibrant. Very professional and beautiful."

The navy has begun a review of security across its fleet after an intruder broke into a Darwin naval base, overpowered a guard and stole weapons. HMAS Coonawarra base went into lockdown on Friday after the armed man stole at least two pump-action shotguns and 12 semi-automatic pistols. The masked intruder assaulted the guard just before midnight on Thursday and bound him up with cable ties.
On Friday, Northern Territory police locked down the base and searched all exiting vehicles but the weapons have not yet been found.
Commander Richard Bryson from the Crime and Specialist Support Command said that the magazines that go with the weapons had not been stolen.
''Unless there's been some further assistance or intervention we're confident that the weapons are not capable of being utilised at this point in time,'' he told reporters in Darwin.
Commander Bryson noted that the attack had happened in the dark and that the sailor had only been able to provide a basic description of the intruder to police.
The intruder was wearing a balaclava and military-style clothing.
He also appeared to have good knowledge of the layout of the patrol boat and ADF procedures.
NT police are investigating the incident, along with Defence personnel and the Australian Federal Police. On Friday, most of the police investigations were forensic.
Chief of Navy Vice Admiral Ray Griggs told Fairfax Radio that he had also initiated a review of security "more broadly across the fleet" on Friday morning, in the wake of the incident.
"It's certainly a breach of security and it's a very concerning one for me," he said, noting an incident like this had not happened before on a ship.
The navy chief said that the young sailor assaulted in the incident was shaken but OK. "He's being looked after," he said.
HMAS Coonawarra is a naval base in Darwin, about two kilometres from the city centre.

So I tackled the news that the Mets have borrowed another $700 million, almost certainly against their SNY ownership stake, here.
But I just want to point out exactly why the valuation, and sum that came with, is a worst-case scenario, as I described this morning on Twitter.
The Mets borrow another $700 million or so: that means they can take care of 2013 expenses, the $320 million due against the team in 2014, with a few hundred million left over to fund losses for the next few years. There's more to it; the profit margin from SNY, their only remaining source of it, may be affected, and servicing this new, $1.1 billion+ debt will probably run more, while there's an infusion of $50 million in 2014 thanks to the national TV deal taking effect, but that's basically what we're dealing with here.
They'd already borrowed $450 million against their SNY stake back in 2010. So getting another $700 million in collateral means they borrowed against a 65 percent stake in a company valued at around $2 billion. That reflects a huge boom in sports television values, most recently reflected in the sale of YES (valuation $3.1 billion) and basically everything financially involving the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Had SNY come in with a value of, say, $3 billion as YES did, the Mets could have presumably borrowed a great deal more than $700 million, providing extra money to be used on players, with the real chance of reversing the downward spiral that extends beyond putting everything on hopes that Sandy Alderson's farm system can deliver enough talent, that performs well at the same time, before becoming too expensive.
Had SNY maintained close to its estimated value of just over $1 billion, which is where most experts placed it as recently as last year, there wouldn't have been enough remaining value within it for ownership to borrow against just to pay off that looming 2014 team debt.
An asset doubled in value in a year, essentially, to bail out ownership in the short-term, but insufficiently to allow ownership the financial room to invest in the team.
Now, will that change? Can SNY double in value again in a year? The ability of ownership to find any more money (this was the last asset they had to leverage) depends on it. The value of the team, locked into a sweetheart deal with SNY for a long, long time, is compromised. The ability of the team to use TV money, thus, is similarly compromised. That boom that has allowed the Dodgers, under new owners, to spend freely, is being directed in New York toward survival of ownership.
The remaining piece of information left: did the new loan include an extension of time beyond the 2015 due date for the old SNY loan? That tells you how much time this move bought ownership.

"The designers did exactly what I asked for and it was delivered well ahead of time. I was thankful for such professional work. I will recommend them to anyone that needs this service."
"I used this product for a 'schedule of events' for my destination wedding. The longer cut allowed me to fit all the information I needed in in regards to a 3-day schedule. The design team at Wedding Paper Divas adjusted the layout and text and transformed it into exactly what I was looking for. The quality is great and the design team got it done super fast."
"I created a welcome card to include in gift baskets to be delivered to out of town guests. This was my first time using Wedding Paper Divas. I was completely blown away. The quality and service way exceeded my expectations. Absolutely beautiful and 100% perfect. Beautiful printing, thick and high quality paper. I will only use this company in the future. Really amazing."
"I love my wedding programs! The rich purple is consistent throughout printing and matches what I saw on the screen. The printing is clean and easily read, and the font looks great in person too. I definitely took advantage of paying the extra few cents per card in order to have a more elegant edge cut on the card. I think it added a hint of "something" that gives the program extra personality and it better matches the direction I was going for. I would order these again in a heartbeat."
"The design team was able to help me with font sizes and made some changes to the layout as I requested. The paper turned out to be better quality than I expected. I wanted something elegant, yet simple, and this worked perfectly."

ELIZABETH CITY, NC – The Saint Leo University men's basketball team closed out its pre-Christmas trip to Virginia and North Carolina with a resilient 87-74 win over Elizabeth City State University on Monday evening.
The win, the Lions' fourth-straight, came after Saint Leo (7-2) was forced to open up two big leads in order to down the Vikings. Rolling in the opening half, Saint Leo opened up as much as a 16 point advantage over its hosts, but watched as ECSU (6-3) cut the lead to just six at the half.
Out of the break, the Vikings used some fortunate breaks to tie the game at 45 with 16 minutes to go, but the Saint Leo answer would be swift and decisive.
Holding a slim advantage at 51-50, the Lions would go on a 25-6 run over eight minutes to wrap up the win. It was a run that was sparked by three consecutive three-point baskets in a 90 second span where the Lions scored nine unanswered points.
It was after Saint Leo opened up the 20 point advantage that the hosts resorted to fouling the Lions in the hopes that making free throws would be a problem. The Lions would connect on nearly all of their chances, making any sort of an Elizabeth City rally impossible.
"Elizabeth City is a very good basketball team and is very difficult to stop," Head Coach Lance Randall said. "It was a great defensive game as a team effort."
"I like the way we responded at halftime. It felt like it was slipping away and I thought in the second half we came out and were the tougher team and just kind of built it up; we got the ball to the rim and got to the free throw line. It's a great road win, an especially great road win heading into Christmas Break."
Senior Trent Thomas scored a game-high 28 points on a night that he went 8-for-11 from the field and connected on 7-of-9 free throws. He was also 5-for-5 from the free throw line. Only six points behind him was Jerrel Harris, whose 7-of-11 night put him in the book for 22 points.
Also in double-figures for the Lions were Marcus Ruh and Shaun Adams as each scored 11 points.
Elizabeth City was led by Angelo Sharpless whose double-double (23 pts. /10 rebs.) managed to keep the Vikings in contention until midway through the final half.
The Lions will now head into the Christmas Break where they will see the longest span between games this season. Saint Leo will next take to the hardwood when they travel to West Palm Beach, Fla. and face Palm Beach Atlantic University on January 2, 2013. It will be 15-day span between contests.
This postgame recap is brought to you by Papa Joe's Italian Restaurant in Brooksville, Fla.

Frightening Video Shows Trees Literally Being Swallowed By Massive Underwater Sinkhole in Louisiana
We have been hearing a lot about sinkholes recently, especially in Florida. One such sinkhole swallowed an entire house while the owner was asleep in his bed...he was never found. There is a massive sinkhole in Assumption Parish, Louisiana that is literally dissolving the area into liquid muck and a mandatory evacuation order is in effect as the hole grows.

TWO pupils from a Kidderminster school have not only been competing to claim the school's best GCSE results, they've been competing to be the best pupil since they were two-years-old.
Elliott Cox and Grace Hogan, who attend Heathfield School, have spent most of their lives together at the independent school.
Since joining in April 2001, the pair have been in the same classes, achieved similar results and in the last year, Grace has been school captain with Elliott as her deputy.
The duo are close friends, but said there are times when they are also arch enemies.
Elliott said: "There's always been competition between ourselves but I think the competition we have with each other is what spurs us on to be better."
Continuing their rivalry into their GCSE results, both Grace and Elliott achieved nine A*s and an A grade, which they said they were expected to achieve.
Grace said: "We've always been about the same level, one of us is usually better at one subject compared to the other, but on the whole we're pretty well matched.
"Throughout our school lives our results have usually evened each other out."
Elliott said: "We knew we were going to get good grades, but because everyone was expecting us to get A*s we have been under a lot of pressure over the last few years.
"We've been so nervous but we've put the work in and are really happy with what we've achieved – it's a big relief."
Their competition could continue into their A levels as they both leave the school this summer to attend sixth form at King Edward VI College, in Stourbridge.
"We're actually doing three of the same subjects there - we're both doing maths, history and French, but Elliott is doing economics while I'm studying Spanish," said Grace.
"So we're still going to see a lot of each other."
As they have spent most of their lives at the one school, Elliott feels moving away from the same environment will help them when they eventually go to university.
"The school is a family as we've grown up together and spent 13 years with the same people," he said.
"We're going to keep in touch with our friends but a large contingent of our year is actually going to King Edwards so it won't be too much of a goodbye."
Deputy headteacher of the school, Faith Wilson, said she was delighted that 86 per cent of pupils gained five or more A* to C grades.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - A 29-year-old Jacksonville man was convicted Wednesday evening on charges of armed robbery and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
On New Year's Day 2011, Marguiste McDonald robbed a man at the Shell gas station on Ramona Boulevard. McDonald was parked at a gas pump when he saw the victim and demanded the man give him $5 for gas.
As the victim opened his wallet, McDonald fired a shot into the air and demanded all of the victim's money. McDonald then fled the area with $200 in cash.
Hours later, the victim spotted McDonald at another gas station and called 911. McDonald was then arrested by the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.
McDonald has a 2004 felony conviction for sale of cocaine. He faces up to life in prison.
He will be sentenced the week of April 30.

OLD WASHINGTON The Buckeye Trail Lady Warriors defeated the Cambridge Lady Bobcats in volleyball action Saturday afternoon, 15-11, 15-6.
In the first game, Trail topped Cambridge thanks to the efforts of Brittni Borrero, Molly Grimes, and Amy Kittle at the net and Heather Nealey at the serving line.
Kittles kill at the start of the game tied it up 3-3. Later, a spike by Grimes earned Trail a side out that brought about two points for the Warriors.
Borrero then launched a major offensive attack and tied up the score 8-8 with a powerful kill. But unbeknownst to Borrero, Cambridges Jessica Johnson was ready to launch her own major attack.
With Cambridge taking the lead 9-8, Johnson stepped up and earned point number 10 with a block that left Borrero silent. Johnson and Borrero battled at the net for the next few plays as Cambridges Jessica Lynn laid out a few kills of her own.
Lynn aided the Cats in gaining point 11 and her strength at the net allowed for several sideouts in the Bobcats favor. Cambridges Kelsey Folkert and Whitney Whitis each had key plays assisting the Cats in getting two sideouts.
But Trails Nealey had other plans in mind as she served up the next five points straight to win the game.
In game two, Trail seemed at a loss to maintain the momentum it had gained in the first game and Cambridge appeared to have lost its fight. However, that loss of excitement didnt translate to every team member as Borrero and Grimes maintained their outstanding level of play throughout, with Borrero putting down four kills and three tips to the middle.
Grimes showed her versatility by making some major plays in the back row on both saves and serve receive. Her serving in the second game earned the Warriors seven points.
The most improved player award during the second half would have to go to Trials Courtney Dinges, who displayed some promising talent at the net. Thanks to two double blocks (first with Borrero, then with Grimes), two tips, and a line kill from the right side, Dinges earned the Warriors three sideouts and one point.
Cambridge also displayed some promising talent in junior Leann Berger, whose powerful kill earned the Cats their first point of the second game. She later aced a serve that brought the game to 8-5 and in a fight for the finish, her kill earned the team a side out.
Cambridges Johnson continued to challenge the Warriors with her play at the net while Samantha Lilienthal, Whitney Milligan, and Whitis added some major plays in the front row to give the Cats three sideouts and a point. But in the end, the Warriors finished what they started.
Well take the win, commented Trail coach Jeff Beros. Im disappointed however in the lack of effort and enthusiasm. Well have to play a lot better than this to beat Indian Creek on Tuesday.
Leading the Lady Warriors were Borrero with 16 kills, two blocks, and four points; Katie Canel with 29 assists and six points; Grimes with seven points, six kills, and three blocks; Dinges with three kills and three blocks; and Nealey with nine points (two aces).
Leading the Lady Bobcats were Johnson with five kills, three blocks, and two points; Lynn with five kills and two points; Folkert with 11 assists; and Lilienthal with five points.
NEXT The Warriors travel to Indian Creek on Tuesday, with action starting at 6 p.m. Cambridge hosts Meadowbrook on Thursday beginning at 5:30 p.m.

JO and S. Williams
JWill, RDavis, Zo, Cook and 1st rounder (lottery)
The Heat traded their 1st round pick to the TWolves in the Ricky Davis / Mark Blount trade....which means that they can't trade their 2008 draft pick.
I think that Miami might be a decent trading partner in that they are currently sucking it up out there and actually has an offense that fits JONeal's style. JONeal should be able to fit with Wade and Shaq as a viable 2nd/3rd scoring option on the team and can play at the slower pace that is required if Shaq is playing.
However, I would be surprised if JONeal would go to the Heat without them sending back any contracts of significant length.
I proposed a similiar trade on Real GM:
JWill+Earl Barron+Haslem+Dorell Wright
JWill+Earl Barron+Blount+Cook
We get some salarycap relief and either a solid F that fits our needs ( Haslem ) and an acceptable SG Propsect ( Wright ) or an acceptable Big Man ( Blount ) and a solid SG prospect ( Cook ).
And before you ask...yes...I do think that JONeal's trade value is that low
Ash from Army of Darkness: Good...Bad...I'm the guy with the gun.
Zo already retired.. Davis is pretty good, Williams is alright, but too much like the players we already have (inconsistant) and Cook is also inconsistant.
But a lottery pick would be nice.

Print Ariat International has been providing boots since 1993. Co-founders Beth Cross and Pam Parker both realized in 1990, that many traditional English and Western riding boots were not suitable for equestrian riding. With their expertise and with a footwear background, they realized there was a need for improved riding boots for men, women and kids. Using their knowledge in athletic footwear, they began making performance enhancing changes to their riding boots, giving these athletes an edge. Ariat Boots quickly became known as the most innovative and performance riding boots. They provide the same technology in men's riding boots, women's riding boots and kids riding boots. They totally redesigned the traditional outsole, arch support and last shape and took Ariat Boots to the next level in riding boot technology. While building the technology into these western riding boots, Ariat had hundreds of top riders help design and develop their final product. Today Ariat is the world leader in performance equestrian footwear as well as offering the most stylish western boots on the market. Ariat Boots offers a wide range of products from English and Western riding boots, work boots and casual boots. Their forward thinking and performance lines outfit today's most avid equestrian riders and enthusiasts. If you are the professional rider who absolutely demands performance boots or the novice who likes to ride around from time to time, Ariat definitely has the boots for every man, woman or child. We have all of the top styles including the Fatbaby boots, Heritage Western, the Dixie and the QuickDraw. These styles are all must have for men's western boots, women's western boots or kids western boots. The casual look and performance driven Ariat Boots will provide you with long comfy rides in the country or a relaxing day in the sun. Get yours today!

Set sail from Vancouver on your 7-night Roundtrip Vancouver Cruise onboard Holland America Line's Volendam.
Set sail from Vancouver on your 7-night Roundtrip Vancouver Cruise onboard Holland America Line's Volendam.
Set sail from Vancouver on your 7-night Roundtrip Vancouver Cruise onboard Holland America Line's Volendam to:
Most recently ranked by The Economist as the number one most liveable city in the world, Vancouver is a picturesque city surrounded by the waters of the Pacific Ocean and the snow capped peaks of the Coast Mountain range. Vancouver is Canada's third largest city with many unique neighbourhoods to explore including Gastown, Yaletown, Chinatown and the West End. Visitors can enjoy world class shopping, gourmet meals, outstanding live entertainment, sporting events, theatre, outdoor adventure and world-class attractions.
Tracy Arm
Nestled between 3,000-foot high granite walls, the narrow, twisting slice of ocean called Tracy Arm Fjord weaves through the Tongass National Forest for roughly 35 miles. The shoreline is spotted with waterfalls created by melting snowcaps and trees sprouting at odd angles from rocky outcroppings. You will have ample time to admire the landscape and perhaps catch sight of a few native animals as you cruise through this port.
Juneau, the capital of Alaska, was founded during a gold rush in 1880. Today, the former gold-mining town counts among its riches some of Alaska's most spectacular scenery. Nestled at the foot of Mt. Juneau in the Alaska Panhandle, it faces the water from the mainland side of Gastineau Channel. Several magnificent fjords are located along the channel coast, and the majestic Mendenhall Glacier, a favorite of visitors, is nearby.
When gold was discovered in the Klondike region of the Yukon Territory (just across the border from Alaska), it resulted in the historic Gold Rush of 1898. As thousands of gold-crazed adventurers sought the best starting point for their arduous trek, they found the deepest penetration possible by boat was at the northern tip of the Lynn Canal. This is how Skagway was born.
Glacier Bay
If you didn't know any better, you'd think Glacier Bay ostentatious for the way it flaunts its ice. The glaciers practically terminate in your lap. A cruise to Glacier Bay National Park with Holland America Line will show you a UNESCO World Heritage Site that protects a unique ecosystem of plants and animals living in concert with an ever-changing glacial landscape.
When a monumental chunk of ice splits off a glacier and thunders into the sea the impact shoots water hundreds of feet into the air. You hold your breath as you catch the moment on film. Then you wait for it all to happen again. And it does: Glacier Bay has more actively calving tidewater glaciers than anyplace else in the world.
Ketchikan originated as an Indian fish saltery, but the town's major growth began when it became a supply base and entry port for miners during the 1898 Gold Rush to the Klondike. Much of the town's colorful past is still in evidence, especially in the nearby Indian villages, where you'll see colorfully carved totem poles and hear the fascinating legends that surround them.

Court date set for pair charged with Loretta Saunders murder
Saunders' body was found two weeks after she disappeared from Halifax
HALIFAX – Four days have been set aside in July for a preliminary hearing for two people charged with the murder of Loretta Saunders.
Blake Leggette, 26, and his girlfriend, Victoria Henneberry, 28, were charged with first-degree murder on Feb. 27, two weeks after Saunders disappeared from Halifax.
They did not appear in provincial court in Halifax on Tuesday when the date for the preliminary hearing to begin was scheduled for July 21.
Several friends and relatives of Saunders sat in the front row of the courtroom. Saunders's cousin said someone from the family will be there each time the case is in court.
"It's important for us to have family representation," Lisa White said outside court. "We're going to be there every step of the way."
Leggette and Henneberry were charged with first-degree murder on Feb. 27 after Saunders body was found in a wooded area off the Trans-Canada Highway in New Brunswick.
She disappeared from Halifax on Feb. 13.
Police allege the 26-year-old woman was killed the day she was last seen at an apartment she once shared with the two accused.
Saunders, an Inuit woman from Labrador, was a student at Saint Mary's University in Halifax and focused her studies on missing and murdered aboriginal women.

Johan Santana finally got some run support and the Mets finally won a game as they exploded for six runs against the Dodgers on Friday night.
Santana continued his excellent outings over his past few starts by allowing only one run on four hits in seven innings.
The Mets offense got things rolling early as Jose Reyes and Luis Castillo got hits off Dodgers starter Vincente Padilla. Both Angel Pagan and David Wright struck out, but Reyes was able to score when Russell Martin tried to throw out Luis Castillo, who was trying to steal second. The ball was dropped, however and Castillo was safe at second.
The Mets struck again in the second when Ike Davis hit his 14th home run of the season, just one behind Wright's total.
The game stayed 2-1 through the seventh inning after the Dodgers got a run in the fifth inning. Then the Mets' bats came alive in the eighth with a little help from four walks. The Dodgers used four relief pitchers in the inning.
Reyes walked to lead off the inning. He stole second, followed by a walk by Castillo. Pagan bunted the two base runners over, and Wright hit a sacrifice fly to score Reyes. Carlos Beltran was intentionally walked. He and Castillo then advanced to third on a wild pitch. Davis walked. Jason Bay finally got a clutch hit as he doubled in three runs. Maybe banging his head against the fence jarred his bat lose.
The Mets not only displayed offensive prowess and patience at the plate, but they also exhibited some great defense. Bay made a running catch, smashing into the left field fence. He was shaken but was able to continue playing. Pagan had two back-to-back sliding catches in right field, while Beltran had one of his own.
Bobby Parnell and Francisco Rodriguez finished up the game. K-Rod had an unusual 1-2-3 inning.
Jerry Manuel was ejected in the second inning after arguing a call when Castillo was called out at first when instant replay showed he was safe. Sometimes managers will try to get themselves tossed out of a game to get their teams fired up. If so, it seemed to work this time.
The Mets gained ground on the Braves who lost to the Marlins. However, the Phillies blanked the Cardinals to stay a half-game in front of the Mets.

Show Me the Mommy!Logic puzzles require you to think. You will have to be logical in your reasoning.
Biggie Nuff, Baron of Grey Matter, now living in Shapeless, Mass., was dying from a newly developed allergy to water, and wanted his will to reflect the common inheritance law of his father's native country. Biggie's wife, Faerie, was pregnant at the time with what would be the first child for either of them. Biggie's new will stated that if his child were a boy, the son would get 2/3 of his estate, and his widow would get 1/3. If the child were a girl, the widow would get 2/3 of the estate, and the daughter would get 1/3.
In due time, Biggie died, and the authorities read his will, holding dispensation of the estate until the child was born. Five months after Biggie's death, Faerie delivered ... normal, healthy twins, a boy (whom she named Manny) and a girl (whom she named Goodie).
The estate's executor immediately appealed to the Shapeless magistrate to rule on the proper division for the estate. After a great deal of arguing and deep thought, plus several failed attempts to raise Biggie's spirit with a seance, the judge rendered a fair decision.
How did they divide Biggie's estate?
AnswerThe judge reasoned that Biggie intended to give his wife half as much as a son, or twice as much as a daughter. Therefore, he ruled that Manny gets 4/7 of the estate, Faerie gets 2/7, and Goodie gets 1/7.
(This is supposedly a real decision in Massachusetts, according to the Reader's Digest puzzle book in which I first read this, copyright 1967. Obviously, I've changed the names).

Son stabbed in the back in South Surrey, father arrested
Police arrest a 50-year-old man following a domestic dispute in the 17300-block of 3 Avenue in South Surrey Thursday evening.
A 50-year-old man is facing charges following a domestic dispute that ended with his 22-year-old son stabbed in the back.
Police were called to assist B.C. Ambulance Service crews around 8 p.m. Thursday, after a stabbing was reported at a home in the 17300-block of 3 Avenue.
Police say alcohol likely fueled the dispute.
One witness counted four patrol cars on the scene; police took one man into custody.
The younger man was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and released shortly after, police say.
Charges of assault with a weapon have been recommended.
The investigation is ongoing.

Africa's elephants are in crisis.
With over 35,000 elephants killed annually for their ivory, the elephant population in Africa has been depleted by 90% in the last 50 years alone. Not since the 1980s when between 600,000 and 800,000 elephants were killed, has such epic levels of poaching been seen. With fewer elephants remaining in Africa and an insatiable demand for ivory, it is likely that elephants will be wiped off the Earth in less than 12 years - unless change happens soon.
The S.A.F.E. campaign powered by the Bodhi Tree Foundation has two goals: 1) educate and spread awareness with the tourism industry and its customers and 2) provide support to those local field organizations working hard to conserve elephant populations, curb poaching and stem the demand of ivory.
The travel industry has a vested interest in the loss of wildlife as it directly touches almost every player. With a powerful global voice that is already attuned to providing opinions and information to travelers, our united efforts can inform and impact millions and serve as a role model for other industries to follow.
To learn more about the S.A.F.E. campaign and how you can help, visit www.SaveAfricasElephants.com.

Did you know?
The southernmost section of the Drakensberg mountains is sometimes called the Tail of the Dragon. ('Drakensberg' means 'Dragons' Mountain).
Where the high Drakensberg Mountains tail down into high sandstone foothills in the northern part of the Eastern Cape, you'll find the slackpacking Mehloding Adventure Trail.
Not far from the rural town of Matatiele in the northern part of the scenic Eastern Cape, the Mehloding trail is a relatively demanding four-day hike. Interestingly, it is designed and owned by the surrounding community, and you'll walk through small villages as well as some breathtaking mountain scenery.
As you walk, you will be guided by community members and hosted in specially built chalets. There's no need to pack noodles and dehydrated food, because the community will also cook for you.
In fact, the daily hikes, varying between 13km and 20km over hills and valleys, are the only things you'll really have to work at.
For a small extra charge, the community will transport your luggage from chalet to chalet, leaving you free to stroll with only a daypack and a camera.For the rest, you'll have hot showers, comfortable bedding and local food for dinner and breakfast, some of it grown locally.
Each chalet has flush toilets, and although there is no electricity, there is gas for cooking and paraffin lamps, which adds real atmosphere when everyone gathers in the lounge.
Depending on the season (late spring and high summer are the best) you'll see plenty of wildflowers and your guide will point out the rock art if you're interested.
The chalets and trail are run and owned by the Mehloding Community Trust.
If you have only enough time for a small taste of the trail, you could stay at their Masakala Guesthouse just outside Matatiele. Here you can take short hikes, go horseback riding on a Basotho pony, visit a traditional healer and partake of African cuisine.

How to get here
Matatiele, your starting point, is about three hours' drive from Durban. Take the N2 south via Kokstad, where you will veer west on the R56 to Matatiele.
Best time to visit
This is an all-year-round destination. Having said that, the thunderstorms can be spectacular in high summer (November to February, when the wildflowers are out) and mid-winter (June to August) can be snowy and icy.
What will it cost
The cost of the full four-day guided and catered trail per person is R1 920 (a minimum of two people need to do the trail). Transport from the end of the trail back to your car is R800 per group. If you want to slackpack, it will cost R200 between each of the chalets to transport your packs.
Length of stay
The trail will take four nights, but you may want to spend some extra time at the Masakala Guesthouse on your way back.
What to pack
Don't worry about food or bedding. Just bring clothes, comfortable hiking boots and your camera.
What to eat
African cuisine almost always contains meat, but vegetarians can be catered for.

Any Mac freaks out there?
I am strongly considering getting a new MacBook as mine is getting fairly old, the case is crumbling - quite literally - and I want to keep up with the times. (Current one is circa 2008)
Any suggestions on what might be a good choice for Development and Managing a Website remotely?
What is the current state-of-affairs for Mac Operating Systems?
Anything new coming out (e.g. Hardware or Op Sys) that I should wait for?
I'm pretty simple in my choices, and am still fairly content with my tiny 15" white MacBook, however, I would like something with a more reliable case, and maybe the newer Op Sys's have better security?
I think the only MacBook you can get now is the Air, which scared me a bit, but I know a few people who have one and love it. The MacBook Pros are amazing computers, though, and that's what I would get for professional work (if not a desktop, of course). As for OSes etc, Apple is regularly updating them, and it's easy to upgrade them anyhow, so that's nto really an issue.
They do have new MacBook Pros with retina display available, although I have heard mixed reviews regarding the retina display. I have a 2010 MacBook Pro (15") and absolutely love it.
Any thoughts on which Operating System I would want? (They had to pull my teeth to upgrade to Snow Leopard, and now that is like 3-4 Op Sys's removed?!) :eek:
I'm running the latest version of Mountain Lion and have had no problems out of it.
There's no point in worrying about OSes with Mac. Just keep up with the times, I say. It's like the difference between versions of Chrome and IE: With Chrome, you just auto update and don't bat an eyelid (= Mac OS)—whereas with IE, your whole world changes each time (= Windoze).
I've got a new Macbook Pro running Mountain Lion for php dev work, and I've gotta say I love the thing. Much as I dislike Apple as a company (I pretty much can't stand them), I've gotta admit that the Macbook Pro is the best laptop on the market in my opinion. I'd recommend it.
It's really down to personal preference if you go with an Air or a Pro, personally my favourite machine is the 13" max spec'd non-retina macbook pro.The air's are great machines but I prefer the feel and weight of the pro's. If you like the feel of the Air I'd suggest going with that.I haven't been convinced by the retina macbooks yet, I quickly noticed the scrolling was more laggy than the ones with the standard displays.
As Ralph said the OS is simply a downloadable cheap install so you'll get the latest with a new computer which will be fine.
I've been using the new MacBook Pro (15" Retina display). I've never been a Mac person, so it's been a different experience for me. I can't say I'm totally used to it (my primary machine is a Windows Desktop); but the Retina display is AMAZING. As far as the OS goes, Mt. Lion is pretty sweet.
Some more questions...
1.) Any reasons to NOT get a MacAir or whatever they are called?
(I'm pretty content with the footprint and weight of my white, 13" MacBook from circa 2008.)
2.) Any reason to be leery of any of the newest Mac Laptops for whatever reasons there may be?
(I tend to be a late adopter.)
3.) Thoughts on getting a conventional Hard-Drive versus the new Solid-State ones?
1) No, the airs are great dev machines.2) I find the scrolling laggy and the battery life isn't close3) Solid state is better, but I've never had a laptop with it and it's perfectly fine without.
So, I'd go with air if you like the feel and won't miss a cd drive.My reasons for going with the pro are only that I prefer the feel of it.
Not sure if it's changed now, but the lack of disk drive (and other ports like firewire—that may have changed) put me off the Air. You basically have to install everything wirelessly, which I don't like the sound of. And it has a Flash drive, or used to ... and since I don't know what that is, it scares me. :lol:
i have last gen top mbp15 and my gf recently upgraded her mb to latest mbp13, and my sister is using latest mba so i guess that makes our whole family mac freaks Feel free to ask any questions.
Overall it goes likes this: if you dont care about screen size but want some performance you get mbp13, else mbp15, mba if you do nothing but browsing, facebooking and emailing. Not to say that mba is not powerful but battery life is shorter its less durable for everyday's use and it got smaller hdd and no firewire as well. I would still get mbp15 (vs mbp13) if you are man (i mean its not that heavy or that much bigger then 13 and bigger screen is cool) and if you can afford it, cause why not..
As for retina — we didnt get retina display because we dont have the best eyesight and things tend to get smaller when resolution gets bigger. Also i play online games occasionally and higher resolution = lower performance. I use external monitor when i work anyway.I am not sure about new retina ones, slimmer is cool but i heard you cant upgrade hdd yourself there which sounds like a problem cause hdd failed me the most over the last 10 years of using apple stuff.

Vermeer Corporation's WC2300 whole-tree chipper is designed specifically to produce chips for the growing biomass industry. The heart of the WC2300 is its infeed system that includes variable-speed; dual-infeed conveyor chains, a conveyor head pulley with integral grip bars and an aggressive large-diameter infeed roller with crush capability. These design elements provide efficient feeding of difficult material types, reducing the number of times an operator has to handle the material. The infeed conveyor chains are individually tensioned to accommodate unequal chain wear, allowing the operator to replace a single chain at a time. The drum design, discharge chute, cutter housing and infeed conveyor floor are designed with bolt-in replaceable wear parts. This helps to extend machine life, and reduce down-time. The WC2300 offers two drum knife options — double-edged or babbitted single-edge cutter knives. www.vermeer.com

Municipal and other public pensions took a legal and legislative whammy in the last few days.
A U.S. bankruptcy judge in Detroit ruled that the federal bankruptcy law trumps any protections afforded by Michigan's constitution. According to Barron's Income Investing blog, Moody's, the bond-rating service, summed up the potential nationwide impact of the decision:
The court held that the city may reduce accrued pension benefits because federal bankruptcy law, which allows for the impairment of contracts, will supersede the state constitutional language that prevents diminishment or impairment of earned benefits. Today's ruling sets an important judicial precedent establishing that pension benefits are unsecured contractual claims in Michigan and could be cited as precedent in other jurisdictions.
Meanwhile, two states away, the Illinois legislature mustered enough votes from both Democrats and Republicans to overhaul the deeply indebted state pension plan, which is only about 40 percent funded. The deal will cut benefits to retirees as well as current workers in order to shore up the pension system over the next 30 years.
If you are receiving a public pension -- or expecting one -- this is unsettling news no matter where you live.
Mark Mitchell, a Certified Financial Planner and retirement planning expert in the Detroit suburb of South Lyon, is a retired police officer. Many of his clients are also current and former public employees. In the wake of the action in Detroit, his phone has been ringing off the hook. He's been telling these anxious people -- who are worried about their retirements -- to stay calm.
"I'm saying, 'Don't do anything rash. This isn't the final straw because there is going to be a court appeal and that is going to take a long time,'" he says.
He also points to recent court decisions in San Bernardino and Stockton, Calif., two other cities facing bankruptcy, where courts have been more sympathetic to pensioners.
In the meantime, Mitchell is emphasizing to his clients the importance of maximizing the defined contribution plans most have in addition to their defined benefit pensions. These plans are similar to 401(k) plans but are labeled 457 plans when they are held by government employees.
"I'm telling people their 457 plans are federally protected. Nobody can go after them. They can't be attached by creditors. This is their money and their safeguard," Mitchell says.
For some, this will be nearly all they have because they didn't pay into Social Security. And even if they did have outside jobs that were covered by Social Security, what they are entitled to is greatly diminished by WEP, the Windfall Elimination Provision, a federal law that limits double dipping by public employees.
While he doesn't believe many public pensioners will actually lose their benefits, he does urge all of them to engage in smart retirement planning -- whether their current or former employer is in financial trouble or not. "One or two bad administrations can ruin everything," he says.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has given the green light for the club to make a bold move for Blackpool winger Tom Ince in the January transfer window.
Tottenham scouts, including technical co-odinator Tim Sherwood, have watched the 20-year-old star several times in recent weeks and have returned to White Hart Lane with glowing reports.
Ince has scored ten goals in 17 appearances this term and four goals in his last five matches.
Several Premier League clubs have shown an interest in the Blackpool ace but Spurs - determined to bolster their attacking ranks in January - hope to steal a march on their rivals with an early bid.
Ince's stock has risen substantially since the start of the season and, according to the Sun, would not be allowed to leave for less than £10m.
That is unlikely to deter Spurs though, with Villas-Boas desperate to add an extra wide man to his ranks to add competition and cover for established wingers Aaron Lennon and Gareth Bale.
Other targets high on Tottenham's list include Shakhtar Donetsk's Willian and Crystal Palace's Wifried Zaha but both players' price-tags have inflated considerably in recent weeks.
Willian is attracting the attention of a host of European clubs after impressive displays in the Champions League while Zaha received a call-up to the England squad last month.
Levy is therefore keen to swoop for Ince who he believes could represent better value for money.

One final Happy Festivus, Boneheads!
The Festivus episode is on tonight for those who get Seinfeld on Fox-TV.
Here are the post-game notes and quotes, from the Rangers:
Dec. 23, 2010 – New York Rangers 3, Tampa Bay Lightning 4 SO (Game No. 36, Home No. 18)
- The Rangers were defeated by the Tampa Bay Lightning, 4-3, in a shootout tonight at Madison Square Garden, and are now 20-14-2 overall and 8-8-2 at home. New York has registered a point in 14 of their last 21 games (14-7-1 over the span).
- The shootout lasted 11 rounds, which is tied for the sixth longest in NHL history, and longest since Detroit and Nashville required an 11-round shootout to decide their contest on Mar. 27, 2010. The 11-round shootout is the third longest in Rangers history, behind their NHL record 15-round shootout on Nov. 26, 2005 vs. Washington (3-2, 4-3 in the shootout) and a 13-round shootout at Philadelphia on Oct. 7, 2006 (5-4, 1-0 in the shootout). Henrik Lundqvist was in net for both contests.
- Henrik Lundqvist stopped 21 of 24 shots through regulation and overtime, and turned aside eight of 11 shootout attempts, and is now 14-12-2 overall with a 4-6-2 mark at home. He is now 7-4-1 with a 1.88 goals against average, a .931 save percentage and three shutouts in his last 12 games. Lundqvist is 31-22 with a .751 save percentage in 53 career shootouts.
- Derek Stepan tallied the game-tying goal at 11:18 of the third period to extend his goal streak to three games (three goals), and send the game into overtime. He has now registered 15 points (seven goals, eight assists) in the last 20 games.
- Ruslan Fedotenko and Alex Frolov notched goals in a 12-second span mid-way through the first period to give the Rangers a one-goal lead after surrendering an early goal. Fedotenko also led New York and tied for the game-high with three blocked shots. Frolov has now registered five points (two goals, three assists) in the last five games.
- Brian Boyle tallied the lone assist on Fedotenko's goal at 11:16 of the first period, and was credited with a team-high, five hits. He has now registered seven points (two goals, five assists) in the last nine games.
- Artem Anisimov and Chris Drury each recorded an assist on Frolov's goal at 11:28 of the first period. Anisimov also led all skaters with six shots on goal, and has registered four points (two goals, two assists) in the last five games. Drury won a game-high, 11 faceoffs in 16 attempts (69%), and has tallied two assists in the last three contests.
- Brandon Dubinsky and Matt Gilroy registered one assist apiece on Stepan's game-tying goal at 11:18 of the third period. Dubinsky finished the contest with five shots on goal and led all forwards with 20:42 of ice time.
- Erik Christensen and Mats Zuccarello each tallied a shootout goal for the Rangers. Christensen improved to 21-38 (55.3%) all-time in the shootout with 10 game-deciding goals. Christensen's 10 game-deciding goals is tied for fifth in the NHL all-time and his 21 shootout goals is tied for sixth, while he ranks seventh all-time with a 55.3% career shooting percentage in the shootout. Zuccarello logged 17:52 of ice time while making his NHL debut after being recalled from Connecticut (AHL) yesterday.
- The Blueshirts' next practice is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 26, at the MSG Training Center.
- The Rangers will return to action when they face-off against the New York Islanders on Monday, Dec. 27, at Madison Square Garden (7:00 p.m.). The game will be televised live on MSG Network and can be heard on 1050 ESPN Radio and newyorkrangers.com.
John Tortorella on the team's ability to come back… "I think we grind. We don't have (Marian) Gaborik. We have some major guys out of the lineup. Again, like I said, I like the hockey team. It is a team that continues to play, continues to grind. The things that we do…we have to work our (tails) off to score a goal. I have a lot of respect for the guys because we didn't get frustrated. We gave them a couple but we battled back. I am not down. I know they are because they didn't win, but there was some good stuff that happened tonight as far as how we have to play."
Mats Zuccarello on tonight's game… "To lose a game is always tough. We are not happy with that. We felt like we should have gotten two points."
Derek Stepan on tonight's game… "We have to be happy with how we grinded and how we played. Other than a couple of breakdowns that ended up in the back of the net we played exactly the way we wanted to."

HOUSTON - Friday night inside Minute Maid Park, there was a visible increased police presence.
It was the first game since Monday's bombing at the Boston marathon.
Group gatherings will never be the same.
"I actually think it's a good idea with things that are happening now," said Crystal Garza, an Astros fan who attended the home game Friday night. "We need more security. Large crowds always make me nervous, but especially now."
Details of the security plan were not made public but Local 2 did learn that bomb sniffing dogs were brought in before the game to search garbage cans. The dogs were also used to search underneath random cars parked near the ballpark.
The heightened security will continue through the weekend in Houston. The National MS Society - Lone Star: 2013 BP MS 150 bike ride will attract thousands of people and so will the International Festival downtown.
Even as crews worked to set up for these events, police stood watch nearby.
"We want the public to come out and enjoy themselves," said Houston Police Chief Charles McClelland, Jr. "And not be afraid to participate in mass, festive events."

Location: Corn Insects and Crop Genetics ResearchTitle: MaizeGDB: Global support for maize research through open access information [abstract] Author
|Lawrence, Carolyn
Submitted to: Meeting Abstract
Publication Type: Abstract Only
Publication Acceptance Date: 2/27/2013
Publication Date: 4/29/2013
Citation: Lawrence, C.J. 2013. MaizeGDB: Global support for maize research through open access information [abstract]. In: G8 International Conference on Open Data for Agriculture, Washington, D.C., Apr. 29-30, 2013. p. 1. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: MaizeGDB is the open-access global repository for maize genetic and genomic information – from single genes that determine nutritional quality to whole genome-scale data for complex traits including yield and drought tolerance. The data and tools at MaizeGDB enable researchers from Ethiopia to Ghana to Tanzania to intelligently select germplasm for use in accelerating improvements in yield, disease resistance, and adaptation to climate change. "New Users" at MaizeGDB make up roughly one-fourth of site traffic, with sub-Saharan Africa foremost among that group. The freely-available data, knowledge, and tools served by MaizeGDB enable researchers anywhere to enhance crop improvement. MaizeGDB addresses the data access and analysis needs of researchers by developing and deploying data analysis methods, tools, and portals that simplify how researchers interact with biologically meaningful information. In so doing, the MaizeGDB project has become a model for how to meet the needs of basic, translational, and applied researchers. Development of MaizeGDB and other agronomically important databases that embody a sequence-aware and genomics-centric paradigm transforms how researchers interact with information and forms the groundwork for the creation of systems that enable researchers to retrieve distributed data and access heterogeneous datasets from a single website to allow access to data irrespective of where data are physically located. Enabling broad access to data via such systems has the potential to shift the bottleneck for crop improvement from inability to access relevant information to a world where research is limited only by human creativity, which is boundless.
