WALES say they're prepared to risk more all-or-nothing trick plays to beat the Wallabies after shocking the All Blacks last week with a try from a 13-man lineout.
Forget all the "Wounded Dragon" headlines, six straight Test losses or an injury-hit Wales camp supposedly on its knees.
In one play last weekend, the huge danger posed by the home side to the Wallabies in Cardiff on Sunday was seen clearly in the bold tactics they're prepared to use to beat southern hemisphere heavyweights.
Wales stunned the Kiwis in the second half of their clash when the entire backline joined an attacking lineout on the All Blacks' line.
Devised by Warren Gatland, the innovative play was a huge gamble by Wales - if New Zealand stole the ball they'd have scored unopposed out wide - but it paid off, with the Welsh driving a maul off the lineout for a Scott Williams try.
"When Gats called it during the week a few eyebrows were raised but it obviously worked," Wales centre Jonathan Davies said.
"I'm not sure whether we'll take it into this game again, we'll have to wait and see.
"We'll see what the coaches think in training this week but I am sure Gats has something up his sleeve."
The 13-man lineout (only the hooker and halfbacks stayed out) took advantage of law changes in 2009 that threw out restrictions on players in the lineout, and sent a delighted Welsh crowd into raptures.
Being well-beaten at the time - the try took them from 33-5 to 33-10 - Wales arguably had nothing to lose but the fact the trick play paid off has emboldened the embattled Welsh side.
Wales have lost six Tests on the trot and, if they lose to Australia, face a slide into the third tier of World Cup seedings next week.
While appreciative of their left-field tactics, Australian fullback Berrick Barnes said they're well aware of Wales' desperation.
"It (the 13-man lineout) is definitely something that was back to the old-school. It is great to see really," Barnes said.
"They got due reward from giving it a crack, which is great. They'd be mad not to try something, they're getting to a stage where there is a lot of pressure on them obviously.
"They need a result and there will be a number of avenues I reckon they'll be trying. That's not to say we won't have something up our sleeves too. I think we'd like to be a bit more adventurous on what we do with a few things, but conditions and a lot of things will dictate how that goes."
Backed in a corner and with Gatland back in charge, the Welsh showed enough last weekend to indicate they'll be anything but a pushover for the Wallabies, even with an injury-list to match the Australians.
Gatland - back from Lions duties for the All Blacks-Wallabies swing - is a left-field thinker, prepared to ditch convention to get a result.
Wales spurned kickable penalties early against New Zealand to kick for the line and look for tries, only for Rhys Priestland to kick one dead when trying to bite off as much territory into the corner as possible.
New Zealand coach Steve Hansen described it as "crazy", given the Kiwis raced to a 23-0 lead, but the Welsh camp had no regrets.
"We felt you are not going to beat New Zealand by going 3-0, 6-0. When you play Test matches against New Zealand and Australia, to beat them you have put them under pressure," attack coach Rob Howley said.
Revealing their intent, Howley said they'd pushed Priestland to aim for the corner flag to "exhaust" the kick and get lineouts on the line, not 15 metres out.
Howley indicated the 13-man lineout could have come in the opening stages if the kick didn't go dead, and not just when the game was lost.
"I am sure you would have seen a 13-14 man lineout earlier if we had field position," Howley said.
"The way we tried to play, heads up and never give, showed great attitude. Obviously our players have been questioned over the last couple of weeks in the media about their attitude to the cause, and I thought they were absolutely fantastic at the weekend."

From music to television to film, Mariah Carey is making a huge comeback just one year after giving birth to Dem Babies.
Related: Confirmed: Mariah Carey Joins 'American Idol'
According to Shadow and Act, the five-time Grammy Award winner has joined the cast of Lee Daniels' The Butler, along with actress/model Yaya Dacosta. It is unclear what roles the women will play.
The film's newbies join an all-star roster that includes Forest Whitaker, Oprah Winfrey, Robin Williams, Jane Fonda, David Oyelowo, Jesse Williams, John Cusack and more.
Music for The Butler will reportedly be composed by Quincy Jones.
The film is based on the real-life story of Eugene Allen who worked as a butler in the White House from 1952 to 1986, serving under eight presidents. His experience was documented in a 2008 Washington Post story entitled "A Butler Well Served by This Election."
The film is currently in production.

COMMUNITY projects based throughout Dorset are celebrating after being awarded a share of Lottery grants worth almost £20,000.
The Awards for All scheme offers grants of between £300 and £10,000 to social and environmental projects and the cash will be used for everything from boats to solar panels.
The Maritime Volunteer Service (MVS), based in Weymouth and Portland, received £8,154, which the charity plans to use to buy rescue boat equipment.
Rob Chick, head of the unit, said: "This will make a big difference for our members.
"Our role, since we started up about three years ago, has been to give the harbourmaster whatever assistance is needed.
"Before we would just go out in their boats on patrol during busy periods but now we will have our own to do that and also to train even more members."
Portesham village hall was awarded £10,000 to install solar panels on the roof of the building.
Some of the funding will also be put towards renewable energy events and organisers hope the changes will make the village hall more energy efficient.
Ian Bullock, chairman of the Portesham village hall committee, said: "It's a great thrill for us to be supported with this money.
"One of the biggest problems we have is heating, and with the price of oil going up there has been a dramatic increase in our overall running costs.
"A lot of clubs in our community hire the hall, and the solar panels will help to keep the charges to an absolute minimum."
Events are planned at the hall later in the year to demonstrate the benefits of the panels, and how they work. Mr Bullock added: "This is only the start of the project and we are really keen to get the community involved."
A village hall in Melpash, near Bridport, was awarded £1,000 to fix a leaky roof.
The hall's management committee hopes the improvement will encourage more disabled visitors to use the building, because the leak means the disabled toilet cannot be used.
Mark Cotton, head of the Big Lottery Fund's south west region, said: "There are 42 groups across the region that are benefitting from the Awards for All programme."

The rocker was released from jail five days earlier than he is supposed to and is now due to serve another 15 days at home.
Rocker Vince Neil has been released from jail after serving just 10 days of his 15-day sentence for a DUI charge. The Motley Crue star began his punishment on February 15, just days after celebrating his 50th birthday, after pleading guilty to the count, which stemmed from a 2010 arrest, last month.
But he walked free from Clark County Detention Center in Nevada on Friday, February 25, reports TMZ.com. Neil will spend the next 15 days under house arrest as part of his sentence. The singer recently hit out at the punishment, insisting the judge overseeing his case was "a little harsh" and wanted to "make an example" out of him.
"My great day just got even BETTER!! He's finally HOME!," his girlfriend, KSNV-TV entertainment report Alicia Jacobs, exclaimed via Twitter. "@Thevinceneil just walked in the front door of his home! Home Sweet Home!!"

AFM's North American May Releases: SHAKRA, SUIDAKRA, VOODOO CIRCLE, U.D.O.
The rise of SHAKRA continues! It seems like nothing can stop the successful Switzerland-based hard rock force, as their previous album Everest fought its way all the way to #4 on the Swiss album charts in 2009. Since Everest, the band have recruited new vocalist John Prakesh, and showcase their newly refined lineup on their latest piece of work, Back On Track. Recorded and produced at the renowned Power Ride Studios with the band's own guitarist Thom Blunier, the new album is quite varied from previous releases, as SHAKRA´s catchy rock moves in some slightly new directions. Prakesh´s voice allows the unit to combine the classic SHAKRA sound with the most passionate, soulful and energetic vocals the band ever offered. [http://www.shakra.ch]

Shrimp With Broccoli From Giant Eagle By Eating Well
Here's an example of international cooking at its fastest and best: a speedy Asian take-out favorite given an update with the Italian sparkle of basil, garlic and lemon.
2/3 cup bottled clam juice or reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 tsp. cornstarch
1 Tbsp. minced garlic, divided
3 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/4-1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper
1 lb. raw shrimp (21-25 per pound), peeled and deveined (see Ingredient note)
1/4 tsp. salt, divided
4 cup broccoli florets
2/3 cup water
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil or parsley
1 tsp. lemon juice
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Lemon wedges
Recipe Directions:
Combine clam juice (or broth), cornstarch and half the garlic in a small bowl; whisk until smooth. Set aside.
Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining garlic and crushed red pepper to taste; cook, stirring, until fragrant but not browned, about 30 seconds. Add shrimp and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Saute until the shrimp are pink, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
Add the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil to the pan. Add broccoli and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add water, cover and cook until the broccoli is crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the shrimp.
Add the reserved clam juice mixture to the pan and cook, stirring, over medium-high heat, until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in basil (or parsley) and season with lemon juice and pepper. Add the shrimp and broccoli; heat through. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges.
Ingredient note: Shrimp are sold by the number needed to make one pound--for example, 21-25 count or 31-40 count--and by more generic size names, such as large or extra large. Size names don't always correspond to the actual count size. To be sure you're getting the size you want, order by the count (or number) per pound.

Robot submarines could be the tool to unlock MH370 mystery
NEW YORK — Three kilometres down or more and darker than night, the ocean becomes a particularly challenging place for human searchers.
If the missing Malaysian airliner rests somewhere in the depths of the Indian Ocean, investigators will likely need to entrust the hunt, at least partly, to robot submarines and the scientists who deploy them to scan remote swathes of the seafloor.
Such unmanned submarines, called autonomous underwater vehicles or AUVs, played a critical role in locating the wreckage of a lost Air France jet in 2011, two years after it crashed in the middle of the south Atlantic. The find enabled searchers to recover the black boxes that revealed the malfunctions behind the tragedy.
That search keyed off critical information: The search area for the Air France jet was much smaller than that for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 and the first pieces of wreckage were recovered within days of the crash.
Even then, it required two years and four deep-water search missions before a team from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), using an AUV equipped with side-scan sonar, located the jet about 3,900m under water.
"Air France 447 is a bit different from Malaysia Air 370 in that we had a few more clues to work with," said Dr Dave Gallo, who led the search team from WHOI, located on Massachusetts' Cape Cod.
The independent research institution has offered its services to MH370 investigators, but has not yet been asked to join the search effort.
If the investigators can zero in on what they think is the plane's last known location, they will probably turn to AUVs to begin the methodical task of tracking back and forth across miles of ocean floor in search of anomalies that might be wreckage.
The unmanned submarines used by the WHOI team were developed as tools to research and monitor relatively shallow coastal waters, measuring variables such as salinity and temperature over wide areas for hours on end.
However, AUVs are increasingly being harnessed to perform some of the most demanding underwater jobs.
The United States Navy uses them to search for underwater mines because they can stay below the surface of even very cold water much longer than any diver, without the worry of exposing a human to danger. Energy firms employ unmanned subs to survey the floor at underwater drill sites.
The area off western Australia where search planes and aircraft are looking for the Malaysian jet slopes from about 800m to depths of 3,000m. However, part of the zone drops into the narrow Diamantina Trench, with depths of about 5,800m.
"Let's hope the plane has not landed over this escarpment. It's a long way to the bottom," said Dr Robin Beaman, a marine geologist from Australia's James Cook University.
The US Navy last week sent a Bluefin-21 autonomous submarine to Australia to prepare for an eventual deep water search. That submarine can dive to about 4,500m. The largest unmanned submarines used by WHOI researchers are built to reach depths of about 6,000m.
AUVs can scan a larger area more quickly, without being affected by conditions on the surface. However, they must be brought back to the surface to be recharged and for researchers to download and analyse their data.
Even so, they are much better suited to the job of a deep-water search than any manned submarine, whose descents are limited by air, light and power, as well as safety concerns, said Professor William Sager, a professor of marine geophysics at the University of Houston.
Prof Sager recalled that in 2000, when he climbed aboard a submarine and ventured 1,700m down to the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico, all those factors limited time on the sea floor to just four hours, moving at a crawl. A researcher looking out a porthole into even the clearest water with a very bright light cannot see beyond 30m, he said.
Unmanned submarines are far more flexible. When WHOI engineers built their first REMUS 6000 submarine a little more than a decade ago, they tested it off the Bahamas by driving it down a trench the scale of the Grand Canyon, said Mr Chris von Alt, who led the team that developed the craft and then co-founded Hydroid, the Massachusetts manufacturer of the submarines.
The REMUS submarine — nearly 4m long, weighs 860 kg and is mustard yellow — is equipped with sonar that can be programmed to capture images of vast stretches of seafloor and the objects resting there. Powered by a lithium battery, the unmanned submarines can stay below the surface for 20 to 24 hours.
Scientists on the surface are now able to modify instructions to the submarine via an acoustic link that allows them to look at bits of data gathered by the vehicle, Mr von Alt said.
However, they do not know what the submarine has found until it surfaces and its data is downloaded to a computer.
The task requires patience and for researchers whose livelihoods are focused on ocean life, a willingness to harness their expertise in a grim, but necessary pursuit of answers.
"That's why you do it," Mr von Alt said. "One of (the reasons) is, 'Why did it happen?' But the other is to get closure for the families who have suffered through the tragedy." AP

Defense spending cuts a 'strategic misstep,' panel warns in Pentagon review
Downsizing the armed forces is a "serious strategic misstep on the part of the United States," a bipartisan panel has concluded in its report on the Pentagon's review of its strategy and priorities.
"Our policy of active global engagement has been so beneficial and is so ingrained that those who would retreat from it have a heavy burden of proof to present an alternative that would better serve the security interests and well-being of the United States," said the National Defense Panel, which was led by former Defense Secretary William Perry and retired Marine Corps Gen. John Abizaid at the request of Pentagon chief Chuck Hagel.
"There is a cost when America does not lead, and there are consequences when America disengages," agreed outgoing House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon, R-Calif., in an interview with The Washington Times. "What the president fails to understand — which the report points out — is that a strong military underwrites all other tools our nation has for global influence."
The panel, mandated by Congress to review the Pentagon's latest Quadrennial Defense Review, concluded the military should not jettison its policy of preparing to fight two wars at the same time and endorsed politically toxic cost-cutting measures, such as base closures and compensation reform.
The spending cuts caused by the sequester have harmed the readiness of the armed forces and should be reversed, the panel said. Citing mounting global conflicts — including nuclear proliferation in North Korea and Iran, the "assertiveness" of China, the "recent aggression" of Russia and "a serious insurgency" in Iraq — the panel advocates for increased Defense funding.
The panel said the capabilities called for in the Pentagon's review "clearly exceed the budget resources made available to the department." The panel recommended "a twofold plan to rebuild a force structure with both sufficient capacity and capability to meet the demands of sustained American global leadership."
Among the recommendations:
• The Army and the Marine Corps should not be reduced below their pre-9/11 size — 490,000 active-duty soldiers in the Army and 182,000 active Marines.
• The Navy must be larger. The fleet is on a budgetary path to 260 ships or less, but the panel says it needs between 323 and 346 ships.
• "Nuclear force modernization is essential" with the "looming obsolescence" of forces from the Cold War.
Although the panel is bipartisan, it is mostly heeded by Republicans, according to Sydney J. Freedberg Jr., deputy editor of BreakingDefense.com.
"Given that they're endorsing some things most of the Armed Services Committee already agrees with, e.g. repealing sequestration … you'll see the NDP being whipped out and used as a rhetorical support," one House Democratic aide told BreakingDefense.com. "It will be used by people who already believe in the message — and everyone else will ignore it."
Sam Brannen, a former Obama administration official who is a senior fellow in the International Security Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, told Freedberg: "The chief proponents of the (panel) the whole way along definitely have been (House Armed Services Committee) Republicans; I don't think it's been particularly of interest to anyone" in the Armed Services Committee.
Nevertheless, "the (panel) can say things that are both inconvenient for the administration and inconvenient for Congress. It can blow the alarm on things like the actual cost to our national security of the collapse of consensus on defense spending (and) frame some of these grand strategic questions that are now contributing to gridlock inside the armed services committees."

Jaipur (Rajasthan), Aug.19 (ANI): In a sharp contrast of size, the world's shortest woman, Jyoti Amge, unveiled a 30-foot-high book, which is a contender to become the world's largest and heaviest book, here over the weekend.
Amge, 19, hails from Nagpur, Maharashtra state, is just two feet six inches tall, and has entered the Guinness Book of World Records as the smallest woman on the planet.
Hundreds of excited residents attended the function just to catch a glimpse of Amge. And, as she emerged through the crowd onto the stage, onlookers rushed to click a photograph of this 'small celebrity'.
"I have been called here because I am the world's shortest woman and my name is registered in the Guinness Book of World Records and that is why I have unveiled this book. I am very happy that I am an Indian and this book is also of an Indian and I would want its name to be featured with me in the Guinness Book of World Records," said Amge.
The book, titled 'Kadve Pravachan' (Hard-Hitting Discourses) has been authored by Jain saint Tarun Sagar, who has taken a vow to remain naked.
The current Guinness record for the world's largest book is held by 'This the Prophet Mohamed', which measures 16.40 feet high and 26.44 feet wide and weighs approximately 1500 kilograms.
President of World Records India Pawan Solanki claimed the book is the largest on the planet.
"The book is 30 feet high and 24 feet wide. This book has also created another record of being the heaviest book. The last record was of Brahma Kumari in Mumbai and the book was 27 feet high. But this book is at 30 feet," said Solanki.
The book weighs 2,000 kilograms. About 1,500 kilograms of iron, 100 litres of colour and 400 kilograms of flax were used by ten workers who came from Ahmedabad and Nasik to make the book in four days. (ANI)

The defensive coordinator and assistant track and field coach at Athens Christian School began his prestigious football career at Clarke Central in 1973.
A four-year starter at linebacker, Smith garnered numerous accolades under Clarke Central coach Billy Henderson, including the "Pop Pearson" and "Iron Man" awards as a junior and MVP and captain honors his senior season.
"I was approached by Coach Henderson in 1973 to play football," Smith said. "I'll never forget the first thing he said the first day of practice. He said, 'I want you to know that I'm prejudice.' All of our jaws dropped because it was in the middle of integration. Then, he finished his sentence by saying 'I'm prejudice against anyone that doesn't go full speed.' He was an incredible person and coach."
After Henderson's first speech, Smith didn't look back.
He lived by Henderson's words, always giving his best in any endeavor. Smith was recruited heavily by several Division I-A programs, but poor SAT scores forced him to consider other options. Smith found a home at Division I-AA Western Carolina, where he became a four-year starter at middle linebacker under coach Bob Waters.
Smith etched his name in the school's record books. He left holding the record for most tackles in a game and the most career tackles, solo and assists.
Smith also earned Most Valuable Defensive Player of the Year honors and a unanimous nomination for all-conference his junior and senior seasons. Smith's records with the Catamounts remained untouched for more than a decade.
"It was a wonderful experience," Smith said. "By the end of my career, I had broken every tackle record in the school's record book. My senior year I tore my MCL, which pretty much did it in for me. I couldn't play in the Blue-Gray game because of injury."
Smith's injury signaled the end of his football career. Despite short stints with the NFL's Atlanta Falcons and the USFL's Los Angeles Express, Smith's reoccurring knee injuries proved lethal to his playing career.
After being waived by Los Angeles, Smith honored a previous military commitment, serving with the U.S. Army Reserves for seven years, including two years of active duty. In the U.S. Army, Smith received several letters of commendation and one medal of commendation.
Later, as a member of the Asheville (N.C.) Police Department's Emergency Response Team (SWAT), he received numerous other honors including the medal of valor and the life-saving award. At the end of a career that spanned from 1984-1996, Smith served on the selection board for the SWAT Team.
After retiring from police service, Smith returned to Athens, as the defensive coordinator at Clarke Central.
After serving at the post for six years, Smith moved on to become the defensive coordinator and assistant track and field coach at Athens Christian. Over the years, Smith has taught his athletes the "never less than full speed" work ethic.
"He's one of the greatest individuals I have ever come in contact with," Athens Christian athletic director Tim Cummings said. "He's committed and dedicated to his work. He's one of the best coaches I've ever worked with. He is really gifted at working with young people."
As for being selected to the Athens Athletic Hall of Fame, Smith said, "It's a humbling experience to be mentioned in the same breath as the other guys in the Hall of Fame," Smith said. "I'm very flattered. I've always wanted to be the best I can be - that was Coach Henderson's philosophy."

Our mission is to provide a fun, supportive and inspiring environment for women to explore and awaken their unique beauty. We are dedicated to offering well rounded classes that enable women to experience and behold the breathtaking and awe inspiring feminine mystique. Our goal is for you to look and feel gorgeous as you master the art of pole dancing.
Our Philosophy
Divine Movement Dance is dedicated to awakening beauty, elegance and playfulness. We are about grace, strength, passion, and integrity.
Our classes are held in a private, women only environment as we respect the art of the dance as an intimate journey and a discovery of the joy of being a woman. We encourage women to rediscover the value of their feminine identity and to experience the joy of the complex, mysterious, creative and awesome female design we've been blessed with.
We believe that dancing can be empowering but that there is a profound difference between power and empowerment. Empowering women into a happy, healthy relationship with their bodies while encouraging self respect and integrity is our goal. Divine Movement encourages women to take ownership of their bodies in a positive and loving way. Because of this we discourage the use of our sexuality to gain power and we do not encourage using our bodies as a means for financial gain. No nudity is involved and there is no audience. All women are welcome here.

Scannal visits Chappaquiddick, and that fateful night in July 1969 when Senator Edward Kennedy's car overturned on a remote bridge on an island just off the Cape Cod coast, killing his passenger, Miss Mary Jo Kopechne.
The circumstances surrounding the events of that night have always been the subject of controversy. How did Kennedy manage to survive and not save his passenger? Why did he not get help immediately? And why did it take him over 9 hours to report the incident to the police?
Kennedy made a statement to police at the time and later broadcast his version of events live to the nation, but his story has been consistently - and vehemently - contested by many over the years. We go back through the archives to piece the story together once more and examine the fallout of the incident for all involved. We speak to some of those central to the investigation and look at how the many inconsistencies in Kennedy's version of events that night have haunted his political career ever since.

Ten Favorite Arizona Summer Festivals and Adventures for Food, Wine, and Beer Lovers
This way to food adventures!
Summer travel season is here -- so we've made you a list of food and drink adventures. It might be stretching it a bit to call them all day trips -- if you do attempt them, be sure to bring along a designated driver!
Cheesemaking Class at The Fossil Creek Creamery, Pine -- Just north of Payson (about an hour and half from Phoenix) in the little town of Pine sits one of Arizona's finest producers of goat cheese. The Fossil Creek Creamery at The Fossil Creek Ranch churns out creamy chevre and tangy havarti from the milk of their pampered goats. You can learn to make your own cheese every Friday and Saturday morning throughout the summer. Creamery owner and head cheesemaker John Bittner will assist you in making your own batch of chevre and teach you the ins and outs of cheddar and havarti. The class costs $95 per person and includes Ricki Carroll's book- Basic Cheesemaking. Class size is limited to six people. Call 928-476-5178 to save your seat.
The 22nd Annual Strawberry Festival, Strawberry -- This quaint little festival features a little something for everyone, including quilting, arts and crafts, live music, and fun activities for kids, but we're heading north for the vibrant strawberry treats. From 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, June 9, and Sunday, June 10, at the Pine/Strawberry Community Center, indulge in homemade strawberry shortcake, strawberry ice cream, and chocolate-dipped strawberries. It's a far cry from the giant California Strawberry Festival, but it's still a fun out-of-town event. Admission is free, bring cash for strawberry treats.
The Mile High Brewfest, Prescott -- Find a designated driver and head up to Prescott on Saturday, June 16, for the very first Mile High Brewfest. From noon to 7 p.m. sample craft beers from breweries across the state on the beautiful lawn of the historic courthouse building in downtown Prescott. Lumberyard, Four Peaks, Prescott Brewing, and maybe even a few Arizona wineries will be in attendance along with a slew of food vendors. Tickets are $20 and include a Brewfest pint glass.
Agua Linda Farms Garlic and Onion Festival, Tucson -- The only one of its kind in the state, Tucson farm Agua Linda celebrates its garlic and onion harvest with a festival complete with hayrides, a petting zoo, and tasty grilled eats featuring freshly harvested garlic and onions. The farm's fourth annual event will be taking place June 8, 9, and 10 on its cool, elevated lawn from 4 to 9 p.m. Admission is just $5 per car. Don't forget to take home a stockpile of garlic and onions for your pantry.

Published 4:00 am, Sunday, November 8, 1998
1998-11-08 04:00:00 PDT SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA; JONESTOWN, GUYANA -- A memorial exhibit of the work of the late Examiner photographer Greg Robinson will be on display at San Francisco's temporary City Hall, 401 Van Ness Ave., Fourth Floor, Nov. 12 through Dec. 11. Robinson was 27 years old when killed while covering Congressman Leo Ryan's fatal fact-finding mission to the Peoples Temple compound at Jonestown, Guyana, Nov. 18, 1978.
The exhibit, which is free and open Mondays through Fridays, features a selection of Robinson's photographs, including those he took at Jonestown, and others taken of the mass suicide at the compound after his death.
The Examiner established the Greg Robinson Scholarship at San Francisco State University to encourage aspiring photo journalists. The work of some recipients of those scholarships over the last two decades will be included in the exhibit. To make donations to the scholarship fund:

SANFORD, Fla. - The Sanford Fire Department is investigating a fire that happened Sunday night at the Wyndham Crest Apartment Complex.
Firefighters believe it may have been lightning that caused the fire that started in the attic of one of the apartment buildings.
The fire left 12 families without homes due to the heavy water damage, including the Rodriguez family.
"All of a sudden this thing is in flames and I went across the street over there and I saw the flames," said Amelia Rodriguez. "It looked close to our apartment because we're all to wall with that apartment."
The fire happened in building eight and took crews an hour to get the fire completely contained. They even ripped off the roof of building eight to get to the fire below in the attic. Two cats and a lizard were also saved in the fire.
Sunday night, only half the building was allowed back inside their apartments.
Red Cross is helping the 12 families that were displaced because of the fire.

I was just browsing Pacers.com, and I saw this ad:
I clicked on it, and came up to this page:
Please note that it looks like you must log in with an nba.com account to vote.
You can help decide the greatest games in Pacers NBA history to be featured in a DVD Box Set to be released in the Spring of 2007! Just register below and select the four most memorable games you want to be included in this set, to be produced by Warner Home Video, Inc. After casting your ballot, you will automatically be entered for a chance to win one of 10 of these special sets!
Here are the choices:
My HOPE is that we're helping pick 4 of EIGHT games to be included on this set (I'm hoping it's 4 2-sided discs, leaving plenty of room for 8 games). Because while I really want the ones I picked, I want a few others as well.
April 29, 1987
NBA Rookie of the Year Chuck Person scores 23 points with 17 rebounds and seven assists to carry the Pacers to a 96-87 victory over Dominique Wilkins and the Atlanta Hawks in Game 3 of a first-round series, the first NBA postseason victory in franchise history.
April 28, 1994
Byron Scott's jumper, the shot that started it all, completes a comeback from a 17-point deficit to beat heavily favored Orlando in Game 1 of the first round matchup, propelling the Pacers to their first NBA playoff series victory.
June 1, 1994
Reggie Miller scores 25 points in the fourth quarter against the Knicks in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals to lift the Pacers to a 93-86 victory in Madison Square Garden and a 3-2 series lead.
May 7, 1995
Reggie Miller scores eight points in the final 8.9 seconds to rock the Garden and shock the Knicks, 107-105, in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.
May 29, 1995
Rik Smits' last-second jumper, dubbed the "Memorial Day Miracle," caps an astonishing back-and-forth finish as the Pacers stun Orlando 94-93 to win Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
May 25, 1998
Reggie Miller beats Michael Jordan for a game-winning 3-pointer as the Pacers beat the Bulls 96-94 to tie the Eastern Conference Finals at 2-2.
May 4, 2000
Dale Davis' offensive rebound leads to Travis Best's game-winner as the Pacers stave off first-round elimination to beat Milwaukee 96-95, beginning their run to the NBA Finals.
June 2, 2000
Finally breaking through against their most bitter rivals, the Pacers beat New York 93-80 to close out the Eastern Conference Finals and advance to the NBA Finals for the first time in franchise history.
June 16, 2000
Jalen Rose scores 32 and Reggie Miller 25 as the Pacers blow out the mighty Lakers 120-87 in Game 5 of the NBA Finals in Conseco Fieldhouse.
May 2, 2002
Reggie Miller's 39-foot turnaround jumper forces the first overtime, and then his dunk forces the second as the Pacers push the top-seeded Nets to double-overtime in Game 5 of a first-round series.
My picks were the 3 2000 Playoffs games and Reggie's 2002 Nets game. Do I necessarily feel those are the top 4 games listed? No, but there ones I've always wanted to own, and they relate to my most vibrate memories of the team (due to age). Plus, I now have the 1998 "Reggie over Jordan 3" game on my DVR, so I no longer have to hunt/wish for that one.
I expect the winners to be the 1994 and 1995 Reggie vs. Knicks games, Smits' Orlando 1995 game, and the 1998 game.
Frankly I want a set with ALL of these games.

Four of us from ICIS travelling to EPCA Berlin were in a head-on car crash on Saturday afternoon, but we walked away with only minor injuries. Nick, Ed, Dan and Barbara were in an airport taxi, a Mercedes estate car, which smashed head first at speed into an oncoming Skoda saloon car on the Kurfurstenstrasse, only minutes away from our conference hotel.
The four of us – three from the London editorial team, together with our European sales manager – watched as police and firefighters examined the wreckage of the cars and then towed them out of the way of the traffic.
Nick in the front seat was saved by the airbag.
"It's lucky that we all had our seat belts on," said Dan, as we counted our cuts and bruises, standing in the rain on the traffic island in the middle of firefighters, police and onlookers.

The San Francisco 49ers fired Jim Tomsula after the team's season-ending loss, Sports Illustrated reported late Sunday night.
In a statement about the former Niners head coach, San Francisco owner Jed York spoke highly about Jim Tomsula.
"Jimmy has been a valuable member of the 49ers organization for the last nine years. We all know he is a man of high character, and his contributions on the field and in our community have always been greatly appreciated. This entire organization is proud and grateful to have worked so closely alongside Jimmy. We all wish him and his family great success in the future."
Jim Tomsula took over the Niners after a messy divorce from previous head coach Jim Harbaugh. Under Jim Harbaugh, San Francisco went to three straight NFC Championship games, including a Super Bowl against the Baltimore Ravens. Yet an 8-8 record in 2014 forced Harbaugh to look at alma mater Michigan for his next head coaching opportunity.
Jim Tomsula had limited head coaching experience before being hired by the San Francisco 49ers. His only time leading a team was when the Niners fired Mike Singletary in 2010, serving as the team's interim coach for one game. Because of that one game, Tomsula's official record will be 6-11. Before that, Tomsula only spent one year running a team, leading the 2006 Rhein Fire to a 6-4 record.
The end for #JimTomsula: #49ers "proud" of fired head coach. https://t.co/oQkEaFvuia pic.twitter.com/okxqEDNF7h
— SFGate (@SFGate) January 4, 2016
Jim had his hand's full before the team ever took a snap. Several veterans over the summer to retirement. After a 1-4 start to the season, issues with the team's star quarterback – Colin Kaepernick – began to surface. A mid-season demotion led to further problems as the team finished 5-11 following Sunday's victory over the St. Louis Rams.
Bleacher Report doesn't think the San Francisco opening is as attractive as others that could be open this season, ranking the job ninth out of a potential 10 openings this off-season. Calling the owner situation "over-involved," the next Niners coach will have some issues dealing with a front office that doesn't make the sound decisions, Ryan Van Bibber wrote.
"Winning a lot of games didn't actually work out very well for the guy before Tomsula, and GM Trent Baalke and CEO Jed York chose loyalty over experience, competence and anything else that you'd generally look for in a head coach. So probably not a great place to work, as the 49ers' last coaching search proved."
In the same article, San Francisco was reportedly seeking to speak with New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Peyton about the job opening. Peyton has worked on the West Coast before, starting his career as an offensive assistant with the San Diego State Aztecs and returning a second time in the 1990s. Peyton is regarded as an offensive genius, having led the Saints to their only Super Bowl victory in 2009.

— Bleacher Report NFL (@BR_NFL) January 4, 2016
Adam Gase will also garner attention during the search. Currently, the Chicago Bears' offensive coordinator, Gase interviewed for the position in 2015 but declined the position, Fansided reported. Will time and the elimination of Jim Tomsula from the picture change Gase's mind about San Francisco? For a first-time head coaching position, Gase may choose to look elsewhere.
Jim Tomsula could also be replaced by Chip Kelly. The former Philadelphia Eagles coach was shown the door earlier this week, ending a three-year stint that had led to a playoff victory during his first season. But his name will be on the list for most fans – if not the GMs – this off-season, and Kelly may choose to avoid the Niners.
What do you think about the Niners decision to end Jim Tomsula's reign in San Francisco? Leave your thoughts in the comment section below.

NEWPORT Gwent Dragons suffered a 16-5 loss to Cardiff Blues at Rodney Parade in the RaboDirect Pro12 this evening.
It was nip and tuck throughout in a low-quality encounter until a pair of late penalties by visiting young gun Rhys Patchell killed off the Dragons.
In the end it was the breakdown prowess of Wales skipper Sam Warburton and his fellow flanker Josh Navidi that did for the hosts – most of the 16 penalties that they conceded came at the contact area.
It was a scrappy, error-strewn first half but the Dragons wouldn't have complained as they headed to their changing room with a 5-3 lead.
Mistakes, wrong options and penalties at the fiercely-contested breakdown were the theme of a frustrating yet engaging first 40 minutes.
Patchell missed a penalty for the Blues before both Tom Prydie and Steffan Jones failed with shots at goal, the latter striking both post and crossbar from 52 metres.
Patchell got the visitors on the scoreboard on 36 minutes but the Dragons struck straight back, Steffan Jones going over to send Rodney Parade wild after important assists from Pat Leach, Lewis Evans and Phil Price.
The Blues were reduced to 14 men when Nathan Trevett was sin-binned for killing the ball yet it was the visitors who struck while the prop was in the sin bin, Adam Jones' fumble gifting Alex Cuthbert a run-in for a try that Patchell converted.
The errors continued both out of hand and from the tee with both Prydie and Patchell failing with three-pointers.
But Patchell made no mistake with a late brace that meant the Dragons didn't even have a bonus point to show for their efforts on a grim night.
Dragons scorer: try – Steffan Jones
Blues scorers: try – A Cuthbert; conversion – R Patchell; penalties – R Patchell (3)

Game Stats | Postgame Notes | UW Season Stats
After trailing by as many as 22 points, the University of Wyoming men's basketball team staged a furious rally to draw within six points of No. 20 UNLV with one minute to go, but the Rebels hit free throws down the stretch for a 56-48 victory in the Mountain West Championship Quarterfinals on Thursday night in the Thomas & Mack Center.
The sixth-seeded Cowboys (20-11) trailed by 17 at halftime and let the third-seeded Rebels (26-7) extend the advantage to as much as 22 six minutes into the second half, before using a 19-6 rally to climb within seven points with six minutes to go. UW would cut the lead to six at 51-45 with 1:01 left, but that was as close as the Cowboys could get, as UNLV made four free throws over the next 30 seconds to seal the victory.
Redshirt junior forward Leonard Washington led Wyoming with his fifth double-double of the season at 11 points and 10 rebounds, while redshirt junior guard Luke Martinez notched 11 points as well and grabbed a career-high nine rebounds. Senior center Adam Waddell tied a career high with four blocks to go with four rebounds and a steal.
The Cowboys shot 29 percent (17-of-58) from the field, including 28 percent (7-of-25) from deep, to 40 percent (20-of-50) and 28 percent (4-of-14) for UNLV. The Rebels outrebounded Wyoming 56-48 and earned a 9-6 advantage in assists. Both teams committed 14 turnovers.
It was a defensive battle to start the game, as neither team could find an offensive rhythm. The Rebels opened the scoring with a three, but exchanged baskets with the Cowboys through the first 10 minutes. UNLV found its stride on the offensive end to craft an 11-0 run and extend their lead to as many as 12 at 18-6. Back-to-back steals gave Wyoming some momentum and Waddell and senior guard Francisco Cruz hit free throws to cut the lead to nine at 18-9 with 6:03 left in the half.
The Rebels quickly pushed the lead back to double digits with another 8-0 spurt to go up 26-9, before Washington broke UW's drought with a layup at the 2:45 mark. UNLV hit the last basket of the half to go into the break up 28-11. Washington, Waddell and senior guard JayDee Luster each had four points in the first half, as UW's 11 points in the opening frame were the Cowboys' lowest of the season.
The Pokes hit just 12 percent (3-of-24) from the field and no three pointers (0-of-8) in the first half compared to 40 percent (12-of-30) from the field and three (4-of-10) for the Rebels. UNLV outrebounded the Cowboys 23-17 and earned a 6-0 advantage in assists.
UNLV continued that momentum into the second half with a 5-0 run to start the period and extend the lead to 22 at 33-11. Washington broke the stretch with a dunk and the squads exchanged baskets over the next two minutes until Cruz hit a trey to pull Wyoming back within 17 at 37-20 with 15:43 to go. The Rebels answered to extend the lead back over 20 points, though.
That would be UNLV's last basket for over 10 minutes, as the Cowboys made a furious rally. Washington started it with a three at the 12:56 mark to begin a 19-6 UW run. Martinez added two threes in the stretch, while Washington had two layups to go with his trey to battle the Cowboys back within seven at 46-39 with 6:32 to go.
The Rebels momentarily extended the lead back to 11, but Martinez nailed a three and Cruz followed with one of his own to cut the UNLV lead to six at 51-45 with 1:01 to go. That would be as close at the Cowboys could get, though, as the Rebels hit four free throws in the next 30 seconds to seal the victory.
Wyoming now waits for word on a possible postseason berth on Sunday.

Porsche is getting back to basics with its new 911 R: fast engine, great handling, two seats: GO!
Perhaps not quite that basic, but the new R, which made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show, is a nod to the automaker's more no-frills past.
In fact, it was inspired by the company's limited-production 911 R – the R stood for racing – from 1967, which was designed to be a performer on the road and the track. (more…)

Home > National News > Article
Thirty-thousand new full-time jobs made January a record month for the number of Australians in work, but that was not enough to stop the jobless rate drifting up from 5.6 per cent to 5.7 per cent.
January was the sixth month in a row the jobless rate has been under 6 per cent.
Economists believe it will fall further by the middle of the year, although recent interest rates rises could eventually slow employment growth, especially if construction sector activity slackens.
Total employment rose by 13,900 in January - the sixth consecutive monthly rise - with the big gain in full-time jobs of 29,900 offset by a 16,000 drop in part-time employment.
The Treasurer, Peter Costello, drew attention to recent strong gains in full-time work, including 169,000 jobs added in the past six months. "It now looks like, in a trend sense, as if unemployment has moved below that 6 per cent notch," he said.
But Labor's shadow employment minister, Jenny Macklin, said the figures showed women were losing out in the jobs market, with 50,000 fewer part-time jobs for women than in January 2003.
"This collapse in part-time work demonstrates that women have markedly fewer job opportunities than 12 months ago," she said.
The figures showed the number of people in jobs last month was at an all-time high of 9.68 million. The participation rate - those in work or seeking employment - remained steady at 63.8 per cent.
The unemployment rate in NSW was 5.4 per cent.
Tax also pushed its way back onto the economic agenda yesterday when it was revealed Labor is exploring the cost of tax relief for high-income earners, and the Prime Minister, John Howard, indicated that families with children would benefit from this year's budget.
Labor has asked economic consultant Access Economics to estimate the costs of a range of tax relief options including lifting the top marginal tax threshold from $62,500 to $75,000.
The shadow treasurer, Simon Crean, denied this meant tax cuts for the wealthy would be a priority in Labor's tax policy.
"We know the Government has been talking about taxation and we have to consider all options and be prepared in advance of the budget," he said. "We would be crazy, in considering the options we prefer, not to also consider options we think the Government prefers.
"Our priority, as we've consistently said . . . is not for the top end of town. It is for struggling Australian families."
However, Labor has not ruled out broader tax relief, depending on the state of the budget.
Mr Howard reiterated his preference for tax cuts if there is money left over after the Government has funded all its commitments. He hinted the pre-election budget in May would target working families with children.
"We try, in putting a budget together, to be fair to people. We try to give incentives to people who are trying to improve themselves," he said. "We try and recognise the burden of the cost of raising children."
The Australian dollar surged to a fresh seven-year high of US78.99 cents on Wednesday night after the US dollar fell on global financial markets.
The dollar's gains followed comments by the US Federal Reserve chairman, Alan Greenspan, suggesting that changes in US interest rates are still some way off.

By 2020, it is predicted that Africa will be facing a cancer epidemic. Claudia Hammond reports from Ghana, where efforts are being made to transform cancer care before it is too late.
When I first walked into the room labelled brachytherapy in the hospital in Ghana's second city, Kumasi, it seemed fairly empty.
There was just one nurse sitting at a wooden desk.
But she was watching a black-and-white monitor, and there on the screen was a woman lying very still on a bed in a cell-like room.
Broad tubes emerged near her feet from under the crumpled sheets.
For the safety of staff, she was separated from them by several heavy, lead doors while she had the radioactive treatment.
Still a young woman, she has cervical cancer, the most common form of cancer in Ghana.
'Distinctly uncomfortable'
This hospital is one of just two with cancer centres, and between them they serve a country with a population of 23 million.
Radioactive material is inserted into the cervix via tubes, which are held in place with metal gynaecological devices.
The doctor showed me the equipment and it looked distinctly uncomfortable.
For this treatment the patient must stay alone in this room for 50 consecutive hours.
There was a TV, but little else to distract her.
Fear of surgery
Like many cancer patients in Ghana, the disease was not diagnosed until it was already at a late stage.
There are just five cancer specialists in the whole country, treating tumours of a size that doctors in the West rarely see.
A combination of a lack of awareness of the symptoms, combined with a fear of surgery and the stigma of cancer, leads people to seek help late.
Then there is the belief that cancer always leads to death.
It is not unusual here to know someone who has had a mastectomy for breast cancer that was at such a late stage that they later died.
So in many people's minds their deaths are linked with the operation.
Recruiting ex-patients
Sharon, who has lost two cousins and a sister to cancer, was diagnosed with breast cancer 19 years ago and had a double mastectomy.
She told me women are afraid to have mastectomies in case their in-laws persuade their husbands to leave them.
Her approach is blunt. Whenever she is going to the hospital to meet a woman reluctant to have the surgery, she gets dressed up so that she is looking her best, draws the curtains around the hospital cubicle and then quickly undoes her blouse.
"One woman almost fainted," she told me.
And then she spells it out to them: "If you don't do it, you will die."
Charitable organisation
But in rural areas, even the option of treatment is not always available.
A new charitable organisation called Afrox - led by a team from Oxford University - has ambitious plans to transform cancer care across Africa before the predicted epidemic starts, and it is beginning its work in Ghana.
The proposals cover the prevention and early detection of cancer as well as treatment and palliative care.
This is an area where a lot of people miss out.
Sharon told me about a woman she used to visit who was dying from breast cancer.
Her family saved what little money they had to give her a good funeral, rather than spend it on pain relief for her final days. They said she was going to die anyway, so why waste money on treatment?
Ministerial meetings
For two days I sat in on the meetings Afrox had with health ministers and other officials.
It was an insight into the way ministerial meetings work.
Protocol seems to dictate that no decisions are made during the meetings themselves, so by the end very little appears to have been achieved.
What does take place is a great deal of business-card swapping.
There is even an etiquette for the timing of the handing over of the card.
People introduce themselves, set out their stall, get some kind of response and then out come the cards. It is easy to get 20 in a day.
Then everyone shakes hands, and with nothing agreed the meeting is over. Yet somehow this is how policies are formed and things do get done.
As well as going to meetings in the two days since I had seen the patient having brachytherapy, I had recorded lots of interviews, had two lunches, two suppers and two nights' sleep.
But all along I knew that she was still there, lying with that equipment inside her, all alone in that little room.
And it turns out that after all that, this treatment is not even aimed at curing her. She just might live a little longer.

Coca-Cola makes management changes; Four Ahold execs receive criminal charges.
Coca-Cola Enterprises' Board of Directors has elected Shaun B. Higgins, currently senior vice president and chief strategy and planning officer, to the post of chief financial officer, effective August 16, 2004. Higgins, 54, will succeed Patrick J. Mannelly, who has elected to retire.
Higgins has 18 years in the Coca-Cola system and more than 26 years in the soft drink industry. Prior to leading CCE's corporate strategy and planning function, he was president of CCE's European Group, president and chief operating officer of Coca-Cola Beverages Ltd., chief financial officer of Coca-Cola Beverages and chief financial officer of The Coca-Cola Bottling Co. of New York. He was named to his current post in early 2003.
Mannelly, 49, has served as chief financial officer since 1999. He will continue as a consultant to CCE through the end of 2004 to ensure a seamless transition.
In other news, federal prosecutors have unsealed criminal charges against four former executives of U.S. Foodservice, accusing them of inflating the company's revenue by more than $800 million in 2001 and 2002.
According to an indictment, the four executives exaggerated their company's revenue to meet budget targets expected by Royal Ahold, the Dutch parent company of U.S. Foodservice. By allegedly falsifying revenue, the four men received lucrative bonuses from their company.
The four executives charged are Michael Resnick, 42; Mark Kaiser, 47; Timothy Lee, 40; and William Carter, 43. Carter and Lee have already pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the fraud and are cooperating with the government's investigation.
Ahold, which is trying to get out of the convenience store business so it can focus on its core food operations and supermarkets, has been trying to sell 127 Wilson Farms stores, 67 Sugar Creek stores and 10 free-standing Tops Xpress locations.

Hardkernel ODROID-X Quad-Core Micro PC
New Micro ODROID-X PC packs a quad core CPU, a quad-core GPU and ample ins and outs into a $130 computer that measures just 3.5 x 3.7 inches...
It wasn't long ago the Raspberry Pi – a $35 miniature bare-bones PC capable of performing most everyday computing tasks – was creating waves on the Internet.
However a measly single core ARM 11 CPU providing 700 MHz of processing power might be sufficient for some people's needs, but Hardkernel, a Korean based tech company, is edging their bets that bit more cost for a considerable increase in power, will have consumers swaying their way when it comes to purchasing micro PCs.
The new ODROID-X features a Samsung Exynos 4 quad- core CPU that runs at 1.4GHz. It also comes with a quad-core Mali 400 GPU and 1GB of RAM.
Measuring just 3.5 x 3.7 inches, the micro board still finds room for ample ins and outs, which include 6 USB ports, an Ethernet port, headphone and mic jacks, as well as an SD card slot for storage.
Another bonus is that the Hardkernel board can run Ubuntu and Android since it's built on the ARMv7 architecture. The Raspberry Pi doesn't support these popular operating systems; its makers advise using Fedora on its board.
The ODROID-X is not the only micro system to taken on the Raspberry Pi. Norwegian-based FXI Technologies sells a similar PC called the Cotton Candy. This USB-sized computer features similar specifications, as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth but retails for slightly more at $199.

Divani Casa White Leather Sectional Calla
This is a sectional sofa made of Italian white leather, and has a grace of a smart and neat piece of living room furniture. The innovative shape of the sectional sofa makes it look different from any other piece of furniture. It is sleek and stylish in its look. This one is special in the sense that it is made to fit the space, without wasting even the corner floor space of the room. The white color of the leather makes it look all the more noble and lovely. The sofa is such that it can accommodate more people than a normal set, adding extra sitting space in-between the two arms of the L-shape that it has. The frame of the sectional sofa is made of solid hard wood and the frame work of the sofa is tufted with high density foam and springs. This enables the sections to provide the required comfort to the users. The uniqueness of this sectional sofa lies in the fact that it has headrests only at the two corner seats. The seats lying between the two ends are not supported by headrests. This gives a rare, asymmetrical look to the style line of the sofa and makes your living room look something unusual and uncommon. The backrests and the seats are adequately firm and neat, with the encasement of the white Italian leather covering. Overall it is a full package of great comfort and style.
