CLEARLAKE -- City Council candidate Charles O'Neill-Jones pointed to bringing industries into Clearlake and upgrading education some of the issues he would focus on if elected in November.
The potential for new industries would help "bring Clearlake back on the map as a family-orientated vacation area," O'Neill-Jones, 66, said.
He said his ideas included, "the upgrading and implementation of small and moderate businesses into the former airfield area and bringing a moderate airfield back to the city of Clearlake to increase our exposure."
O'Neill-Jones said he has lived in Clearlake since 1984 and is a retired facilities engineer and U.S. Navy veteran. He seeks one of the three council seats up for election this fall.
Enhancing the city's educational system is also important, according to O'Neill-Jones.
"Basically what's going on, and I had the same thing raising my children here, there's no place for them to extend their expertise in their education or gain practical experience," he said.
O'Neill-Jones said he supports the proposed countywide sales tax to fund lake-related programs as well as the city's sales tax measure to benefit road maintenance and code enforcement.
"(They) would give us the startup financing for some of these major issues," he added.
O'Neill-Jones served on the Clear Lake Advisory Committee and participated in the quagga mussel prevention program.
He said he would also seek to help the council create new housing for moderate- and low-income families. "I would look at the areas of the city that are owned by the city that haven't been utilized as a possible site for new (residential) development," he added.
O'Neill-Jones highlighted other issues he considered important, including improving road safety, addressing water quality and problems with drainage and irrigation, and bringing in more activities such as cultural and sporting events.
O'Neill-Jones said he is a divorced father of four with seven grandchildren who works part-time in entertainment and transportation.

New Dance Faculty Member at AU
The dance program at American University welcomed a new full-time faculty member this semester. Brian Devine, a recent MFA graduate of Ohio State University and professional dancer and choreographer, brings an open and forward-looking approach to AU's dance program.
One of his goals is to further the growth of the dance minor. This semester, in addition to directing Choreolab, he teaches ballet and Dance as an Art Form, a class he describes as "an anthropologic, ethnographic melting pot of the human body and movement and where it fits in society."
For the past 10 years, he has split his time primarily between choreographing and teaching. Prior to coming to AU, he taught at a boarding school in New Hampshire, studied and danced in Seattle, and worked in New York City. In Seattle, he danced with a pick-up company—if the magic combination of money and an event occurred, then the dance company could function. "I didn't have as extensive of a performance career as I think I would've wanted when I was 18 and doe-eyed and going off into the world, but that's okay," he says. "I still have dance in my life every day, so that's a success for me."
Devine describes his choreographic process as musically driven. "I have to find the music in order to make the dance, and then I can go from there and shape it," he says. While he has a different experience with each dance he creates, the music is the impetus, his driving force. "The piece that I walk in the room thinking I'm creating and the one I end up creating are sometimes two very different pieces," he says.
As this year's artistic director of Choreolab, Devine got to watch fledgling choreographers stretch their wings in a supportive environment. This year, six AU students were selected to present at Choreolab, the largest number chosen in recent years. For some of them, it is the first time they had choreographed a dance. Each of the student choreographers selected a creative advisor who watched rehearsals, gave feedback, and nurtured them throughout the process.
The six pieces presented at the concert were of varying genres and styles, and sometimes unexpected given the students' backgrounds. Perhaps students came from a balletic background, but the work they ended up with was not balletic. "It's exciting to watch them grow and learn and see what they make," Devine says.
Seeing the students grow as artists and start to develop their own choreographic voice through this process was exciting for Devine. "It was interesting to see their frustrations and how they worked them out as a choreographer rather than a dancer," he says. "It gave the students the experience of being on the other side of the table, and experience they might not necessarily have had."
At the Choreolab performance on November 6, three outside adjudicators were brought in, two from D.C. and one from New York City. After the students' works concluded, the panel was invited onstage to provide feedback, giving the audience the chance to hear the dancer's lexicon. It was an opportunity to see what dancers talk about when they talk about dance. "Learning how people talk about their work gives you a deeper insight into their work in general," he says.

10x KC Pro Gazelle is max weight, Used condition 1 decent gouge that isnt removed from the disc . Minor ink. 6 / 10
Red KC Pro Teebird is 170 pearly gummy with a flat top. Well used with lots of ink. Flies laser straight with slight fade @ the end. 5/10
Green KC Pro Teebird is 175 clear champion plastic with a domey top. Used with some minor scuffs and hardly noticable ink. 7/10
Looking for Premium plastic discs with cool stamps. For example, the buzz with the huge bee on it. Or custom stamps of discs I throw. It would be cool to have a teebird with a T in the middle and wings on either side like the classic roc stamp. Or a firebird along the same concept. PM offers

2. I couldn't get the "miracle distance" out of the Spectra that everyone told me I would either.
3. Best, easiest to throw, wide winged drivers (IMHO) are the Sidewinder and Roadrunner. A 168g Champ Sidewinder would be ideal, I think, for you.
4. I found that until I had the snap to throw a hyzer flip, anything with a wide rim was useless to me.
Yea, a guy we played a round with the other day was throwing a champ sidewinder pretty well, said it was his favorite disc.
So, now I'm looking at getting either a sidewinder or teebird-L (any reason to pick one over the other?). And which plastic should I get it in?
I'm still trying to figure out what to get Camellia for her distance driver. I've seen the leopard recommended a couple times. Do you all agree that would be good for her? And I wonder if the 150 class would be too light for her (i assume she could get distance but would sacrifice alot of control, she gets real squirrely with her 146 roc when she tries to throw it with any distance, drives/long midrange shots, etc) or the 160 too heavy?
I've really been enjoying this thread. Lots of good discussion.

Voltron, simply put, is one of the most iconic cartoon series of all time. Airing in the United States in 1984-1985, the show depicted the adventures of a group of heroes piloting robot lions that could combine into a giant humanoid robot: Voltron, the Defender of the Universe! Since then there have been various Voltron products and incarnations, including the Nickelodeon show Voltron Force. For lots more information on whats going on with the Voltron brand, check out the recent interviews Figures.com did with the World Events Productions office HERE.
Creative Director Jeremy Corray Address the Crowd
At Comic-Con this year attendees were treated to a really fun panel called Voltron: Form Blazing Fans! Creative Director Jeremy Corray welcomed the fans with a cool intro video featuring the giant robot appearing all over pop culture. Next he introduced three current Voltron partners; Crunchyroll offers streaming uncensored episodes of Go Lion (the Japanese animation Voltron was based on), MyxTV is a sort of Asian-American MTV that plays Voltron, and Skinit has cool Voltron wraps for your phones and mobile devices.
The first panel guests were the guys behind the fan film Voltron: The End. Writer/director Alex Albrecht was joined by star Timothy Omundson (Psych) to talk about the filming process and his love for Voltron. The End captures the final moments of Lance and the Red Lion after some sort of catastrophic accident. Omundson recalled wanting to do the project just to grow a beard, while Albrecht recalled he signed on once he heard there would be Diet Coke. The actor admitted that he wasnt familiar with Voltron, but quickly got up to speed and appreciated it. Omundson further described why The End is so good, referring to its story and the stakes involved. The pair went on to talk about how they managed the short film on such a low budget with only half a costume, cheap instrument panel, etc. Meanwhile, a fan volunteered to build a 3 foot long Red Lion model for the final shot!
Next up on stage were Voltron toys! Scott Toy Guru Neitlich from Mattel came out to show off the current series of Voltron Classics lions. While the blue and black lions are still on their way, Scott had the entire set on stage to show the fans. Along with him were the ladies of Team Unicorn who got to play with the toys and assemble the individual lions into Voltron. It took them a few minutes, but in the end they were succesfull! Scott described the Voltron Club Lion Force and how popular its been, finally bringing collectors large, high quality lions with accessories, weapons, and even pilot compartments for the figures. While anyone can buy individual lions, only subscribers will get the exclusive Sven figure that comes on a cardback reminiscent of the '80s.
The latest animation has been Voltron Force, the first season of which aired from June 2011 to April of this year. The show can be seen in reruns on Nick Toons as well Netflix Streaming. On hand to talk about the show was Toplessrobot.coms Rob Bricken. A super fan, Bricken described how the show really spoke to those of us who enjoyed the original while also adding new elements to attract kids today. Another really cool thing about Voltron Force is that it digs deeper into the mythology and answers a lot of question like where do Robeasts come from, why does it take so long for the lions to form Voltron (and why dont they do it right away), etc.
While you can catch Voltron Force on TV, it also appears in comics from VIZ. Senior Editor Traci Todd and artist Jacob Chabot arrived next to talk about the youth/young adult series. Todd described it as for kids, but with plenty to make older fans excited. It definitely pays homage to the original show. There will be 6 volumes of the comic and each one features a different artist except for numbers 1 and 6 done by Chabot. He explained that in preparation he watched a lot of the cartoons, both old and new, then filtered the stories and characters through his own style. Volume 3 hits stores in August, with the remaining books coming out every other month.
For those of us a little older, Dynamite has two Voltron comic series that are creating a big splash. Brandon Thomas writes both of them, and was on hand to share his incredible enthusiasm. He describes the mainline series as the Voltron series he wanted to see as he grew up, the high school version. It takes the original cartoon as canon and builds vastly upon the characters and mythology. Other than the main series he also writes Voltron Year One which tells the story of Svens group of Space Explorers just months before the start of the cartoon. Craig Cermak, the artist, described it as a cross between Mission Impossible and Oceans 11. That book revolves around special ops missions undertaken by the team led by Sven with cool action, covert assignments, and political conspiracies.
A live action Voltron film has been rumored for a while, and Jeremy confirmed that it is in the works. He described a couple minor companies theyre partnered with... like Atlas and Relativity. On the panel were the films writers, Josh Oppenheimer and Thomas Donnelly (Sahara, A Sound of Thunder, Conan the Barbarian, upcoming Uncharted). Naturally, they couldnt reveal much about the film at this early stage but did say that they were huge fans and remembered the cartoon, promising to stay faithful to Voltrons legacy, characters, and storyline while updating it for a modern film audience. Oppenheimer described the project as a huge opportunity to bring a cult classic to new audiences, saying theres only one shot to do Voltron. Donnelly talked about working with Atlas on Uncharted and said that all of the guys are amazing.
With that the main panel presentations were done and all that was left was for Jeremy to give out some awesome prizes including the full Mattel Voltron! Audience members even got to see a young child dressed up in a pretty amazing Voltron costume. All in all there was a lot of excitement for the brand and fans were pumped up about their favorite cartoon thriving in 2012.
After the main fan panel I got a chance to talk to some of the panelists directly. Scott Neitlich of Mattel talked about the amazing success of their lions and reiterated that these were limited editions and once they are all sold they will never be made or offered for sale again. If you dont have a subscription keep your eyes out for the final two lions; Blue Lion goes on sale next month in August. When asked about Voltron Force toys (you may remember that the Mattel booth had some early prototypes on display last year), Neitlich admitted that Matty is ready to go; they just need to get retail partners on board and toys could be on shelves in as little as three months. If youre a fan, get the word out and build awareness so we can these cool toys!
Brandon Thomas was eager to talk about his Voltron comics at Dynamite, especially about the deeper mythology hes delving into with the next story arc (starting with issue #7 titled Ten Lions) and the different versions of Voltron existing in different dimensions. Thomas revealed that the licensors gave him lots of freedom to develop his stories based on a comprehensive outline he created that covers the first few years worth of stories. Well continue to see more of that as Lotor takes the place of his father in this next arc leading to a very interesting situation involving politics and conspiracies. Lotor advertises his desire to join the Galaxy Alliance, but what about the new evil Voltron that shows up and causes trouble? Thomas also revealed that hell be bringing back other fan favorite characters including Haggar, who he described as appearing cool, creepy, and sexy!
A new artist, N. Steven Harris, will be taking over Voltron in this new arc as well, further differentiating it from the initial storyline. Well see Sven come back into the fold and a new focus back on Voltron. The first arc was in essence a long-form story of Dr. Elliott/Zarkon, a character who shows the balance and relationships between the three great geo-political entities of the Voltron universe: Earth, Arus, and Doom. His allegiances and enemies added layer upon layer to the overall story. Going forward the series will address such questions as: is one Voltron enough and what is the real history of Arus? Meanwhile, it was announced that issue six will be the final chapter of Year One, though Thomas would like to come back to it to tell one more storyline that hes already prepared. It has a natural conclusion, the beginning of the Voltron cartoon story. The comic has a more kinetic feel with lots of action, and that was reinforced by Thomas different method of writing it (more book by book instead of a long plan for the series). The next issue will see Svens team confronted with another group of Space Explorers that includes some current (and future) love interests on the Voltron team...
From the live action movie to comics and everything in between its clear that the Voltron brand is in good hands. Fans have a lot to enjoy right now and the future looks bright for the Defender of the Universe!

Office of Youth Development Home Page
The Office of Youth Development (OYD) was created to design, coordinate and promote innovative strategies to advance youth development. These strategies will cut across all disciplines at the state and local levels. The goal is for all New York State youth to reach their full potential and become healthy, productive adults.
The Office of Youth Development supports and funds programs and initiatives that enable youth to build on their strengths. It supports programs that provide opportunities for youth to gain important life skills and core competencies, and that allow youth to have meaningful roles in their communities. Youth development initiatives benefit young people in their homes and neighborhoods, in schools, as well as in foster care and residential treatment.
Partnership is key. The Office of Youth Development staff work collaboratively within OCFS and with other state agencies, youth bureaus, local governments, contract agencies, schools, public and private organizations, the faith-based community, and with young people and their families.
The Office of Youth Development is an active member of the Partners for Children Youth Development Team, a state-level public/private partnership focused on positive outcomes for New York State youth.

Corn traders may be anticipating bullish data. Corn futures are testing technical resistance around recent highs, which is rather surprising when one recalls the looming release of the USDA's Grain Stocks and Prospective Plantings reports next Monday morning. Position squaring seems likely, but the early gains may indicate traders are expecting bullish data. May corn inched up 1.25 cents to $4.9325/bushel late Friday morning, while December rose 0.5 to $4.885.
Position squaring seemed to cap early Friday soy action. Traders in the soy complex are also anticipating next Monday's USDA reports, but they seemed less willing to push the market in either direction beforehand. Beans and meal declined modestly in Friday morning action, while oil appeared to benefit from firm Asian palm prices last night. May soybeans edged up 1.5 cents to $14.38/bushel around midsession Friday, while May soyoil gained 0.13 cents to 40.56 cents/pound, and May soymeal skidded $0.7 to $469.8/ton.
Improved weather prospects seemed to sink wheat futures this morning. The latest weather forecasts suggest the Great Plains may get better rainfall in early April, which rather obviously could boost wheat production prospects. That news apparently triggered widespread long liquidation, especially with the reports looming Monday. May CBOT wheat futures dove 15.75 cents to $6.9475/bushel just before lunchtime Friday, while May KCBT wheat futures plunged 17.75 cents to $7.66 and May MWE futures tumbled 14.0 cents to $7.4025.
Big beef losses are limiting CME cattle gains. Cattle futures were clearly supported by this week's cash market push to record highs. However, beef cutout values fell sharply Thursday afternoon, which almost surely caused the CME losses posted overnight. Futures have rebounded from those early lows. April cattle futures bounced 0.35 cents to 146.82 cents/pound in Friday morning activity, while August added 0.05 cents to 135.47. Meanwhile, April feeder cattle dropped 0.22 cents to 179.27 cents/pound, but August rallied 0.32 to 181.47.
Hog traders are likely squaring positions. After suffering a big early-week setback, hog futures rebounded strongly Wednesday, Thursday and again last night. Renewed cash market gains likely powered the rise, although pork quotes are now showing signs of weakness. That news, along with concerns about the afternoon release of the quarterly Hogs & Pigs report apparently spurred widespread position squaring this morning. April hog futures had dipped 0.17 cents to 125.30 late Friday morning, while June had climbed 0.67 to 129.97.

It comes in the wake of another alcohol-related issue, when he allegedly assaulted a partygoer at a Christchurch house on January 12 after a drinking and gambling session.
Guildford, who has played 10 tests for the All Blacks, has been involved in a string of high-profile incidents over the past 18 months, including a drunken rampage in Rarotonga in November 2011 that resulted in his arrest. He ran naked and bleeding into a bar before assaulting two patrons
After that incident, the Napier-born player admitted he was struggling with a drinking problem and vowed to give up alcohol for 12 months.
He has gone into hiding since allegations of the latest incident emerged this week but has withdrawn from the Crusaders to seek treatment.
"We are all supporting Zac and see this as a positive step forward in overcoming his illness," Crusaders coach Todd Blackadder said. "This is ultimately about his well-being so it is important for him to take the time to fully address it.
"We are unclear on what it means for the Crusaders at this time."
Blackadder had earlier said Crusaders management were considering whether Guildford would be dropped from the franchise for the rest of the season.
The NZRU banned Guildford for four matches after his post-World Cup exploits in Rarotonga in 2011. He missed the Crusaders' round one fixture against the Blues last season, with the rest of the suspension served during the pre-season campaign.
"It has been a challenging week for everyone involved, and we are working closely with the players' association and his manager to ensure that he gets the professional help he needs and is held accountable for his actions," NZRU chief executive Steve Tew said. "As people may appreciate, this is an employment matter and we must ensure that the process both respects his right to a fair hearing and our legal obligations as an employer.
"We also have a responsibility to the wider game and all those who support it. We are working hard to deliver on our obligations to the game.
"Zac's withdrawal from the Crusaders means they are able to concentrate on preparing for their 2013 season, and Zac will be free from rugby to concentrate on resolving his personal issues. We will remain in touch with Zac to monitor his progress and will address the issue of misconduct at the appropriate time."
The NZRU are likely to take a dim view of Guildford's latest indiscretion.
"Zac has a renewed acceptance of the challenges he faces," New Zealand Rugby Players Association chief executive Rob Nichol said.
"We have taken the advice of experts and Zac is committed to the plan they have developed. It is fundamental that he commits fully to the plan, and sees it through. This means withdrawing from the rugby environment.
"We are all supporting Zac during what will be a challenging time. Zac himself wants to make the most of the opportunity provided and is very appreciative of the support he is receiving."
The Zac Guildford file
August 2011
Broke team rules when he left the All Blacks' hotel to go out after their Bledisloe Cup victory against Australia at Eden Park. Within weeks, he drank heavily and broke the team curfew after the All Blacks' 25-20 defeat to the Wallabies.
September 2011
Guildford admitted to having issues with alcohol and promised he would get problem under control.
November 2011
The 23-year-old was arrested after he stormed into Trader Jacks in Rarotonga naked and allegedly punched two men. He then announced a self-imposed 12-month drinking ban, saying: "I need to sort myself out."
November 2012
After being photographed drinking at a function, Guildford said he had changed his ways and now trusted himself to enjoy one or two drinks with friends.

The former Tottenham striker says that the 23-year old is on a different level to the Arsenal forward - but warns the Welshman to eradicate diving from his game
Lineker went on to suggest that Bale has the potential to be one of the best players in the world and that the Welsh player reminds him of Cristiano Ronaldo - in both his game and progression in football.
Lineker told Absolute Radio: "Spurs have got Bale. People talk about Walcott but I don't think they are quite in the same league personally."
|Spurs are 9/4 with Bet365 to win the Europa League this season
"He's phenomenally talented, he's unbelievably fast and he's strong and he strikes the ball beautifully as good as anyone around.
"He's also good in the air, he's got all the attributes to be an absolute all time great.
"If he can keep the consistency that he's shown certainly in 2013, if he can keep that going for a year or two, he'll be right up there amongst the best handful of players in the world."
Lineker moved to Tottenham from Barcelona in 1989, scoring an impressive 67 goals in 105 appearances for the north London side during his three seasons at the club.
On the subject of whether Bale has an unfair reputation for diving, Lineker used Lionel Messi as an example to the Welshman.
The former striker continued: "Well you know you tend to create these things for yourself. So that's something that he probably needs to look at.
"Messi doesn't ever dive which is another amazing attribute to him. There are one or two incidents where he's clearly thrown himself to the ground and then people look for it.
"If I were him now I'd try and eradicate that from my game."
Absolute Radio's Rock 'N' Roll Football with Ian Wright airs Saturdays from 17.00PM ON 1215AM

Rodney Stuckey has agreed to join the Indiana Pacers on a one-year deal, @USATODAYsports has learned. Nice pickup after losing Stephenson.
Stop quoting people I have on ignore!
Garbage pickup what the **** Larry.
yuck... even kstat will tell you the same id guess... at least its just a year though..
"They want to be famous. We want to be champions. They want to be rappers and backup dancers. We want to play football." - T.J. Ward, Denver Broncos
Oh boy. Here's to hoping it's really cheap and he's not as dumb as kstat says haha
Here's hoping Frank can utilize him and he meshes with our veteran core and brings us what we need.
But I am not over the moon about it or anything.
Today is a devastating day for this team. No two ways about it.
Ugh. Not the move I was hoping for.
Color me not amused.
At least it is only a year deal...
Pretty much just another warm body. I'm not crazy about this but we needed another SG.
One-year deal makes it tolerable.
So does Solomon Hill completely suck or something? Or do we consider him a 3?
If it's any consolation I believe Stuckey was rated higher than Lance on 2k14
Definitely a 3, PG24 main backup hopefully
he is our backup 3 now.
Just glad its one year
Stop quoting people I have on ignore!
Solo is Rush 2.0.
OK Larry, now can we have the trade for one of Dragic, Bledsoe, Rondo.
Garbage players get 1st round picks, (WTF)! All of the NBA must hate the Pacers! LOL
so how much over the tax are we now??
2012 PD ABA Fantasy Keeper League Champion, sports.ws
2011 PD ABA Fantasy Keeper League Champion, sports.ws
2006 PD ABA Fantasy League runner up, sports.ws
This feels like a 'full-stop' on the offseason type move.
"He's a strong physical presence out there on both ends of the court. He's a man. There's a reason he was an All-Star." -- Vogel on David West
Don't wanna make too much judgment till we see how he fits, but I'm not excited about this.
There is still a lot of unknown around EuroShooter. Will he acclimate well to the NBA? Will he be able to play right away at a high enough level, or will he not really pan out until next season? Is he even actually good enough for the NBA? Solo is a 2/3 while Stuckey and Miles are clearly just 2's. So for now Solo is the default back-up 3 until EuroShooter can prove otherwise.
Love the pickup if it's just the year!
Garbage players get 1st round picks, (WTF)! All of the NBA must hate the Pacers! LOL

So this will be slightly offtopic. Im coming to San Francisco for about 1 week, and of course plan to play at least Golden Gate Park and Delaveaga. Id also like to get a round in at Stafford, but Im not quite sure if the Trek is possible with a 2 year old. Can a stroller be used at Stafford?
What other sights should one go see when in SF, any good recommendations for places to stay?

REMEMBERING THE HOLOCAUST WHILE FIGHTING ANTI-SEMITISM -- (Extensions of Remarks - February 01, 2006)
* Mr. SMITH of New Jersey. Mr. Speaker, the anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camps is often selected as the day to honor those murdered at the hands of the Nazis and their collaborators. More than one million people were killed at Auschwitz before the survivors were liberated on January 27, 1945. Appropriately, each January 27, individuals and governments around the world pause to remember those individuals murdered by the Nazis during the Holocaust. Also known as the Sho'ah, Hebrew for ``calamity,'' the Holocaust witnessed the death of six million Jews by the Nazi killing machine, many of them in concentration camps or elsewhere in a web that stretched throughout the heart of Europe. Millions of individuals--political dissidents, Jehovah's Witnesses, those with disabilities, and others including entire Romani families--also perished at the hands of the Nazis.
* Holocaust Remembrance Day also celebrates those brave souls who faced unimaginable horrors and lived to tell of their experiences. In a historic first, late last year the United Nations designated January 27 as International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Initial drafters of the resolution--Australia, Canada, Israel, Russia and the United States--were joined by 100 nations in sponsoring the resolution in the General Assembly. Other international organizations, like the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), have done much to ensure the lessons of the Holocaust are taught in schools across Europe, including the former Soviet Union. In addition, the Belgian Chair-in-Office of the OSCE held a commemorative event for Holocaust victims on January 27 in Brussels.
* Unfortunately, while the Holocaust is rightly remembered, its lessons have yet to be fully learned. Early on, the world said ``Never Again'' to genocide, only to allow genocide to happen again in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Rwanda in the 1990s, and in Darfur today. The establishment of international tribunals to seek justice in response to these crimes may indicate some progress, but the best way to honor the lives of those who died during the Holocaust or in subsequent genocides would be to have the resolve to take decisive action to try to stop the crime in the first place.
* Some heads of state refuse to recognize even the existence of the Holocaust. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the President of Iran, made the outrageous claim on December 14 that Europeans had ``created a myth in the name of Holocaust.'' Showing his virulent anti-Semitic nature, two months earlier in October, he said Israel is ``a disgraceful blot'' that should be ``wiped off the map.'' While Ahmadinejad's anti-Semitic hate is shocking, other hate mongers have physically attacked Jews. In early January, a knife-wielding skinhead shouting ``I will kill Jews'' and ``Heil Hitler'' burst into a Moscow synagogue and stabbed at least eight worshippers. A copycat attack followed in Rostov-on-Don, with the attacker thankfully being stopped inside the synagogue before anyone was hurt.
* As Co-Chairman of the U.S. Helsinki Commission, I have worked over the past four years with other Members of Congress and parliamentarians from around the world to fight anti-Semitism. I was pleased to have either authored or cosponsored three resolutions at the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly, which condemned anti-Semitism, while also being a principal sponsor to the Global Anti-Semitism Review Act that passed the Congress and was signed into law by President Bush in 2004. Internationally, the OSCE has held three international meetings focusing on anti-Semitism and has pledged to hold another major conference in Romania in 2007.
* Mr. Speaker, while our struggle continues, we have made progress, moving governments and international organizations to begin to act. To reverse Edmund Burke's truism, what is necessary for the triumph of good over evil is for good men and women to take action.

My mom was born and raised in Honolulu. She moved to the mainland and started a family of her own. I've asked her repeatedly and wistfully, "What were you thinking?"
How I would have loved growing up an island girl, navigating the waves at Waikiki on a surfboard rather than the mountains of Colorado on skis.
Honolulu has felt like home to me since the first time I visited, even though my mom says it's not what it used to be. I've become a cheerleader for the city – praising its culture, its history, its vibe and generally recommending it as a great stop for visitors to Hawaii.
I've heard negative stuff. It's not the "real Hawaii." I tell those critics that it's a working, cosmopolitan city. Complaining about the hordes on Kalakaua Avenue is like complaining about crowds on the Strip in Las Vegas or Times Square. And there's no better place for people-watching than a few feet away on Waikiki Beach. Staking out a spot on the small strip of beach (though it's growing larger now, thanks to a barge importing sand) was always part of the charm for me.
But now I have to shift my expectations. I'm just back from a multi-generational trip to Honolulu – my mom, me, my 5-year-old daughter and my 9-month-old son. Honolulu has changed.
Somehow, it never occurred to me before the trip that vacationing with young kids might alter my routine viewing of the sunset hula show at the Halekulani. Or that rather than eating at nice restaurants on the water with lovely views, we'd be in search of the closest place with grilled cheese on the menu.
And my outlook toward Waikiki itself has changed, too. Part of this is my circumstance, but it's also because of renovations there in the past few years. Lewers Street used to house many funky places, hotels with great views of the water in between other tower blocks but in need of some restoration, and shops full of tourist trinkets and Hawaiiana. That's all gone now, replaced with luxury hotels and chain restaurants. I like Roy's and P.F. Chang's, but since I can visit those places in Orange County, why would I go to Waikiki to eat there? The shops along Kalakaua are designer boutiques and high-end stores. Again, with access to all those places in Orange County, there's not much lure to them in Honolulu. And negotiating the throngs of people on the streets of Waikiki with two little kids is its own version of a Body Combat workout.
Time to downshift. Could I find the simpler, more kid-friendly parts of Honolulu?
We could still park ourselves on the sand in front of the Moana Surfrider to listen to Sunday-afternoon Hawaiian music, but now we needed an umbrella rental from the beach boy stands to provide some shade. Another necessity: sand toys. The kids were set for hours feeling the sand in their hands and feet and making "fruit salad" and other delicacies from sand and water combinations.
Moving down to Queen's Surf Beach in front of Kapiolani Park was a good bet, too. We found the perfect spot in the shade of palm trees, next to the grass, and near waves that were easily navigable. The nearby pigeons delighted my son every time they came within his sight, and off he went crawling after them.
My daughter didn't need fancy meals with large checks. She was happy to stop at the shave ice cart at the edge of the beach every day and make her tongue vivid colors of red and blue while watching the ocean. And the hot dog I got at that cart seemed better, just because we were on the corner of Kalakaua and Kapahulu.
There was a mayor's parade, a hula show at the Ala Moana Center, and the fireworks off the beach in Waikiki for us to take in as well. We were able to see the elephant enclosure from the balcony of our hotel, which overlooked the zoo, though we didn't make it to the zoo or the aquarium at Kapiolani Park this trip. And watching kids have fun with tourist trinkets like fake leis or puka shell necklaces was a treat.
There was one tradition I kept intact from my visits to Honolulu without kids: bookending the trip with warm, fresh malasadas from Leonard's Bakery on Kapahulu Street near where it meets the freeway. That's something people of all ages can enjoy. I expect the bakery to still be around when my kids bring their children in a couple of decades. They'll have their memories and be able to say, "Honolulu isn't what it used to be," and find new ways to enjoy it.

ROE: Measuring Successful Meetings in San Diego
Conferences and meetings are held for various reasons: to inspire, educate, reward and most commonly, impact both the top and bottom line. While some of these objectives are more quantifiable than others, there are several ways to measure the success of a meeting regardless of the end goal.
Given today's smaller meeting budgets and larger corporate accountability, not to mention the endless hours invested in planning, determining the ROE (return on event) is more essential than ever.
Many planners try to measure the success of a meeting once it has concluded, but there are several valuable insights to be gathered throughout the course of the event.
- Marketing-related metrics. Increased website views, email clicks, inbound calls, and social engagement and will give you preliminary feedback on how interested people are in attending.
- Registration counts and pace. Most registrations open with only a few key facts unveiled: topic, date and cost. Watch how sign-up rates behave when you determine and release certain details. Selecting an attractive, unique conference venue in San Diego such as Paradise Point versus an airport hotel in St. Louis will amplify registration rates even at early stages.
- Session attendance. When measuring the success of a meeting, compare registration numbers to actual attendee figures, and conduct headcounts during sessions to gauge interest on speakers and topics.
- Watch engagement. Calculate using audience-polling techniques or make a point to simply observe the physical and verbal cues of attendees. Do they look bored? Are they laughing and interacting with each other? It may seem like excessive scrutiny but actions speak louder than words written later on surveys.
- Survey scores. Within a few days of the conference ending or even during the closing session, conduct a survey of both attendees and no-shows. Ask for feedback on everything from agenda topics, time of year, city and venue, food choices and value for time and money spent. If they didn't come, why? Compare your internal survey results with those from the meeting venue. Most hotels and conference sites typically send out a post-event survey to evaluate satisfaction with similar aspects of the experience, which can help you measure the success of your meeting from both angles.
- Corporate metrics. Sometimes the impact of an event is immediately evident and sometimes it takes time to see the results, but look for a correlation between conference material and your company's KPIs. Remember that it may be quantitative (improved employee satisfaction scores, increased revenue) or qualitative (heightened creativity or teamwork), but the ROE on face-to-face interaction is almost always there.

What are flower farmers doing at a coffee convention?!
Discussing the future of Fair Trade coffee
For the past 24 years, the Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) has held a conference to be the coffee professional's one stop shop for everything needed to succeed in the coffee industry. Historically this conference had only been for coffee roasters and importers, but over the past decade Fair Trade USA has changed this by enabling small-scale coffee producers to attend. This has created a 'global-handshake', connecting coffee farmers with those who roast and sell their products.
Record turnout for the Fair Trade USA producer Forum at SCAA
This year at SCAA's 24th Annual Exhibition & Symposium in Portland, Fair Trade USA helped make history again by hosting a forum that included every step of the coffee supply chain, from origin to shelf. Attendees included:
- members of over 100 small farmer coffee cooperatives
- farm workers from both flower and coffee estates
- non-profit organizations who provide financing, business training and social programs to farming communities
- businesses who demonstrate their commitment to ethical coffee sourcing through their sales of Fair Trade Certified products
Discussion focused on how to improve Fair Trade in an effort to impact the lives of more farmers and farm workers. Cooperative farmers indicated their need to remain competitive, but also expressed their desire to see everyone in their community have the opportunity to benefit from Fair Trade. Whether their neighbor is a small farmer who is not able to join a cooperative or a worker who doesn't own any land and therefore needs to work on a large farm to earn a living, farmers agreed that everyone deserves a fair chance.
Workers from the Hoja Verde & Agrogana flower estates in Ecuador answered questions all weekend about how their fellow workers democratically choose how to allocate their premiums and how their entire community has benefitted from Fair Trade.
"I feel so happy and proud to be at this event, sharing my story with the coffee industry. Working for a Fair Trade Certified farm has greatly improved my working and living conditions. I hope that our experience serves as a powerful example for the coffee industry." Maria Elvia Almachi, Agrogana Flower Farm, Ecuador
From pediatric care to micro-financing, these women have seen the benefits of Fair Trade Certification grow over the years and provided valuable insight into the long-term community development effects. The success of Fair Trade Certification for flower and tea estates inspired Fair Trade USA to introduce pilot programs for coffee farms.
Workers from the first pilot Fair Trade Coffee estate came from Brazil to provide early insights into the impact of Fair Trade. As the model has only been applied to one estate so far, everyone in attendance was eager to hear from this group.
Luir Fontes of the Fazenda Nossa Senhora de Fatima pilot Fair Trade coffee estate
The workers received a standing ovation as they shared how Fair Trade has already improved their community by enabling some workers to visit the dentist and ophthalmologist for the first time in their lives.
Fair Trade USA achieved an important goal at SCAA's event this year by connecting all parts of the coffee supply chain in order to engage in conversation about how we can all work together to deepen and expand the benefits of Fair Trade. When independent coffee farmers, cooperative members, and workers from large estates are all excited about working towards a common goal, we know the future is bright for Fair Trade.

ROCHESTER -- Oakland University officials say they are seeing signs that young adults are interested in preparing to thrive in a more robust economic future.
They point to Oakland University's School of Engineering and Computer Science's annual Engineering and Computer Science Day which was held Saturday. Staff welcomed more than 400 high school students, pre-college students and their families who were able to check out the college's programs and projects.�
"The response was overwhelmingly positive," said� Lorenzo Smith, the school's associate dean. "The experience helped (guests)� understand just how easy it is to get connected to research at the university. One father joked that he is tempted to become an engineer himself."
Guests toured faculty research laboratories, viewed student project displays and demonstrations, and observed how skills can be applied to real-world problem solving and innovation.
Christopher Kobus, a professor of mechanical engineering and director of outreach and recruitment for the school, said that outreach efforts in the region's K-12 community -- including onsite visits to schools, participation in career fairs, and contributions to science, technology, engineering and mathematics workshops -- has helped prospective students see how they can begin to pursue a wide array of rewarding career possibilities.
"In all of these efforts, we have been selling SECS on our biggest strengths, which include student-faculty interaction from day one and hands-on experiences throughout the curriculum," Kobus explained.

Felix and I have the added bonus that Captain Scott Smith of the "Dolphin Dream" allows us to freedive with the sharks. While it may not sound like a big deal, it is Scottie's way of saying: "I trust you guys as you know what you are doing."
Diving freedom and as little interference from the operator as possible (preferably none at all) is what I want, indeed need, to feel good when I dive with sharks.
I have free-dived almost all my life alone; it's been forty years when I saw my first shark while spear-fishing in the Virgin Islands. I was 27 then. Many shark operators are in their late thirties or early forties - what can they tell an old, saggy bagged sea wolf about shark-diving? :-)
To imagine that somebody would tell me: Kneel down, here is your shark billy just in case, form a semi-circle, and don't touch "it" (touch what?, the fish called Wanda? :-) would be totally unacceptable - NO WAY, JOSE. Not for me!!!

The Blues have the chance to leapfrog Liverpool and return to the top of the Premier League this weekend as they face Stoke at Stamford Bridge.
The Scousers don't play until Sunday, so Chelsea could reboot their title challenge after hitting a dreadful run of form.
Of their last seven away games in all competitions, Chelsea have won one, drawn two and lost four.
Wednesday night's defeat in France has left Jose Mourinho's once-merry men with a mountain to climb on Tuesday's second leg of the Champions League tie against Paris St-Germain.
At 2-1 down, it all looked poised for a tight, winnable return.
But a third goal for PSG in injury time put a different complexion on the second leg and, while Chelsea will come out all guns blazing, it's now a tall order to progress to the semis.
What's concerning is the Blues' inconsistency. It's not a problem that has often affected The Special One. But these are not ordinary times.
Chelsea's 1-0 league defeat at Crystal Palace was a shock after the 6-0 demolition of Arsenal the previous week.
Unlike Arsenal, Palace hassled and harried the Blues every step of the way, and deserved their win… for persistence alone.
For once, Mourinho's tactics were wayward. In a bid to get his players used to a style he was toying with against PSG, he played a 4-3-3 formation at Selhurst Park, with Fernando Torres, Eden Hazard and Andre Schurrle leading the line. It didn't work.
In Paris he tried pushing Schurrle to the front, with Oscar, Hazard and Willian in close supporting roles, but it all left Chelsea looking vulnerable in other areas.
Jose will do his best to refocus minds on Stoke, who will fancy getting something from Saturday's late kick-off game, but attention is bound to wander to Tuesday, when the Blues have nothing to lose and can either implode spectacularly, or perform a miracle.

It has been several years since we've had the opportunity to drive—maybe that should be pilot—a Bentley, but our recollection is that it is the most sumptuous and powerful car we've ever been in. There have been more sumptuous cars in terms of amenities (e.g., the new Mercedes S-Class comes to mind) and there have been more powerful cars in terms of, well, as Iggy might put it, raw power (e.g., the new Dodge Challenger, with the Hellcat engine that produces 707 hp vs. the 500 hp of the Continental GT V8).
This is the Continental GT3-R, which will reportedly cost on the order of £ 240,000
That said, the Bentley cars are nothing if not notable in many ways. Including what's done with them.
Because racing is the sort of thing that vehicle manufacturers do to validate their bona fides, Bentley races. In the Blancpain Endurance Series. As of right now, the #7 Continental GT3 is leading the points in that series.
This Saturday, July 26, they will be on the Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium for the Total 24 Hours of Spa.
The Continental GT3 is built by Bentley's motorsport team in conjunction with M-Sport, a racing organization best known for its activities in rally racing. Somehow the Ford Focus RS WRC seems a long, long way from the GT3, but racing is racing.
Racing at Goodwood
What is rather amusing (in a droll British sense, mind you) is that one of the sponsors of the Continental GT3 racing program is Naim Audio, a British purveyor of high-end audio systems.
Somehow we can imagine the drivers in Belgium rolling along in their GT3 with a bit of Handel's Water Music cranked up to 11. . . .

SAN JOSE — Lawyers and relatives of the 22-year-old woman charged as an accessory to the murder of Monte Sereno millionaire Ravi Kumra accused authorities on Tuesday of playing games by refusing to disclose any evidence against her.
"They need to stop this circus and show evidence or release her," said Sandra Mitchell, the mother of Raven Dixon, 22, who appeared in court Tuesday shaking and straining with her shackled wrists to wipe away tears. "They're playing really dirty with her."
Three men have been charged with murder for the Nov. 30 killing of Kumra at his Monte Sereno estate. Dixon, who was first arrested on prostitution and drug charges, had known Kumra for years and had attended a big party at his house last year. Now, she is accused of harboring at least one of the men charged with killing Kumra.
"This poor girl is sitting there and is confused as to why she's there," said one of her defense lawyers, Denise Zingale. "I need to know what they have against her. It's very upsetting."
Deputy District Attorney Kevin Smith said, however, that Dixon is "well aware of why she's being held," and because the case is considered gang related — he wouldn't explain why — police have to be even more careful with their investigation.
"When charges were brought against all of these defendants, the police asked for and a judge agreed to seal all of the paperwork," Smith said. "The reasons for that sealing still exist and as soon as they don't, we will unseal them and let everybody know."
Dixon's case was ordered held over until 2 p.m. Feb. 4, when she will join the men charged in the home-invasion killing: Lukis D. Anderson, 26; Javier R. Garcia, 21, of Oakland; and Deangelo J. Austin, 21. Smith said he will attempt to consolidate the four cases.
Kumra, 66, was a wealthy tech investor who once owned The Mountain Winery concert venue. But divorce files and other civil lawsuits accused Kumra of being a ruthless businessman who lived a sordid lifestyle filled with prostitutes, illegitimate children and drugs. He was accused by former business associates of orchestrating a "sham divorce" to hide millions of dollars in assets from creditors. The divorce was finalized in 2010, but his ex-spouse Harinder Kumra still lived in the home with Kumra.
Dixon's mother, who attended the court hearing with a dozen other relatives, said Tuesday she wants to know why her daughter was arrested instead of any number of women who attended a "big party with Brazilian escorts" at the Kumra mansion about six months ago. "Why wasn't everyone pulled in?" asked Mitchell. "Why just her?"
Mitchell declined to discuss her daughter's background, except to say that she comes from a "good family" who all showed up to support her Tuesday. Dixon's 3-year-old son, whose father was also at the hearing, waved from the gallery to his mother in her red jail suit. Mitchell also said that her daughter didn't have a home to harbor anyone in because she was mostly living with relatives in recent months, and that she tried calling Kumra after the break-in, proving that she didn't know he was dead.
Dixon's defense lawyers, Zingale and John Ambrosio, had requested reams of discovery from the prosecution, but in a brief hearing Tuesday were handed only a thin packet containing the already-public charging document and her rap sheet.
"We have nothing saying why they're holding her," Zingale said after the hearing. "It tells me that maybe they're looking for someone else. It's a way of keeping evidence against this other person under wraps."
The killing has riveted the exclusive hamlet of Monte Sereno. But police and prosecutors have remained tight-lipped, saying little more than Kumra's ex-wife had called police frantically at 1:30 that morning, saying at least one or more intruders had broken into their 7,000-square-foot gated estate and had beaten her up. When police arrived, they found Ravi Kumra dead. Coins, jewelry and cash had been stolen.
Dixon is being held in jail in lieu of $1 million bail. She was charged in the case after she was arrested Dec. 18 in Mountain View for allegedly offering an undercover officer sexual services for $600 and cocaine for $50. The prostitution and drug case is pending separately.

text: Yoshimura R&D Rider Tomac Delivers Victory Press Release | July 23, 2013The following is from Yoshimura…The Yoshimura-backed GEICO Honda squad were front-runners at Washougal. Eli Tomac posted an overall victory in the 250 class, by way of back to back moto wins. Tomac slipped into the lead right away in Moto 1, taking the position away from Yoshimura-backed Teammate Justin Bogle who was the holeshot winner. Tomac, with a clear track in front of him, checked out from the rest of the pack. He finished with a 20-second lead over 2nd place. In Moto 2, Eli Tomac once again dominated. He slipped into the lead on the first lap, and again checked out from the pack. Coincidentally, he finished again with a 20-second lead over 2nd place. In the holeshot department, the Yoshimura-backed GEICO rider Justin Bogle snagged the first holeshot, and teammate Wil Hahn grabbed the next holeshot. In both motos, the top positions off the start were dominated by the Yoshimura-powered GEICO Honda machines. GEICO riders Justin Bogle, Zach Osborne, and Wil Hahn would post overall finishes of 4th, 6th, and 12th, respectively. Eli Tomac, after his victory at Washougal, sits in 2nd place in the Championship points, just 1 point shy of overtaking the lead. Osborne, Bogle, and Hahn currently sit 5th, 7th, and 17th, respectively in the Championship points. Yoshimura-backed Muscle Milk Honda rider Justin Barcia, motored out of the gate in 450 Moto 1, and started the race off in 2nd. He held that position throughout most of the race, until a mishap through a hard right-hander gave the spot over to Yoshimura Suzuki's James Stewart. Barcia remounted in 4th, and hung on to that position to the finish. Justin Barcia could have hoped for a better Moto 2, but luck was not on his side this weekend, as he was unable to put together another top 5 finish. Teammate Trey Canard has a love/hate relationship with the Washington track, given his past 1-1 finishes, and a 2011 crash resulting in a broken femur. He was able to successfully finish both motos without any major drama. His 12-11 finishes would net him 12th overall. After Washougal, Justin Barcia sits 3rd in the Championship points, with Trey Canard sitting in 5th.Yoshimura Suzuki's James Stewart rode the wheels off the number 7 machine; he put in a solid ride in Moto 1, taking 2nd from Barcia, and duking it out with Villopoto in the closing laps. James' daring speed earned him a 3rd place finish in the race. Moto number 2 saw James chase the leaders all the way to the checkers, for another solid 3rd place finish. His ultra consistent 3-3 finishes earned him the 3rd place overall, which landed him atop the podium. Stewart's latest podiums have him in 4th in the Championship points. Yoshimura-backed RCH Suzuki rider Broc Tickle's performance at Washougal shows that he has the dedication to run up front. Broc finished 13th in Moto 1, and more than made up for it in the 2nd Moto with a 5th. His 2nd Moto finish was his best of the season. His overall placement was 9th, which matches his 9th place in the Championship points.Yoshimura riders head next to Millville, Minnesota's Spring Creek Motocross park for Round 9 of the 2013 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship.450MX Results: 3.

Hated rival helps Cowboys in tight NFC East
Updated 1:33 am, Wednesday, December 5, 2012
DALLAS — Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has done the unthinkable.
Resign as general manager? Walk past a television camera? Utter a simple, declarative sentence?
Well, nothing quite that dramatic.
But in an interview with KRLD-FM on Tuesday, Jones revealed he rooted for Dallas' hated rival, the Washington Redskins, on Monday night.
"We couldn't believe 'Redskins' was coming out of (our) mouths," Jones said.
That's "Redskins" as in, "Go Redskins. Beat the New York Giants."
And they did, 17-16, behind another impressive performance from rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III.
Sports Channel
Just two weeks ago, the Redskins bludgeoned the Cowboys 38-31 on Thanksgiving, a defeat that depressed Jones and left his team out of the playoff picture.
But Dallas climbed off the mat to come from behind to vanquish Philadelphia 38-33 on Sunday. That win, coupled with Washington's victory over the defending Super Bowl champs, tightened the NFC East race.
"That was a big win for them and for us," Jones said.
The Giants, who are 7-5 after losing three of their last four, hold a one-game lead over the Redskins and the Cowboys, both 6-6, with four games left.
Dallas remains in third because Washington owns the head-to-head tiebreaker. The teams close the season Dec. 30 in Landover, Md.
The Cowboys, who split with the Giants, likely will have to capture the division to make the playoffs for the first time since 2009. As it stands now, the wild-card favorites are Seattle (7-5) and either Chicago (8-4) or Green Bay (8-4). The Seahawks and Bears own head-to-head tiebreakers over Dallas.
The Cowboys hope to close the gap Sunday when they face the soaring Cincinnati Bengals (7-5), who have won four straight behind a fierce defense that includes three former Cowboys (coordinator Mike Zimmer and cornerbacks Terence Newman and Adam "Pacman" Jones).
Jerry Jones cautioned a loss at Cincinnati could serve as a death knell for Dallas. Still, he's thrilled to have his team in the hunt after all the uneven play and injuries.
"It is where we hoped it would be after our game against Philadelphia," said Jones, whose team has lost four defensive starters to injury. "If we beat Cincinnati and we play well, then good things could happen for us, giving us a tie-breaking situation with the Giants."
Jones wasn't the only member of the franchise taking to the airwaves Tuesday.
During the midst of his six-game absence because of a foot injury, DeMarco Murray feared his season could be over, the tailback revealed in another interview with KRLD-FM.
"Four or five weeks (into it), I'm sitting there (thinking that)," Murray said. "This past week is where I really turned the corner and felt better. It was definitely a hard deal."
Murray celebrated his return by rushing for 83 yards on 23 carries with one touchdown against the Eagles, a performance that included runs of 14 and 27 yards.
Murray said he originally thought he would miss only a week or two after going down Oct. 14 at Baltimore.
"After four or five weeks, six, it was hard," he said. "It was a very frustrating deal. I tried to stay positive and keep my head in the Bible and strive to get better."
Asked how he felt after his first contact in more than a month: "It feels like you've been in a car crash. It's a good feeling. I actually like it."

The Tennessee coaching search includes a class of experienced coaches, and not those on the rise.
North Carolina coach Larry Fedora could meet with UT athletic director Dave Hart at the National Football Foundation meetings in New York, GoVols247.com reported.
Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy and Louisville coach Charlie Strong already have interviewed for the job, according to multiple reports. Gundy also was a candidate at Arkansas.
It would be interesting to see Gundy's spread offense in the SEC. Gundy would join Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin with a style of play—a pass-heavy, hurry-up offense—that grinds the gears of traditionalists like Alabama's Nick Saban.
Unlike last week when Strong vehemently denied that he'd interviewed with Auburn, the Cardinals' coach was less emphatic Monday when asked whether he would return to Louisville.
"I will say that at the right time," Strong responded.
Strong would leave behind one of the best quarterbacks in the country in Teddy Bridgewater. The Big East champion Cardinals are playing in the Sugar Bowl against Florida.

Israeli police officers examine a destroyed bus at the site of a bombing in Tel Aviv, Israel on Nov. 21, 2012.
News of the bus bomb in Tel Aviv spread quickly here in Jerusalem. So many people have smartphones with alerts on them. Everyone seemed to know right after it happened, an accelerating buzz spreading from person to person. Have you heard? Have you heard? Have you HEARD?
So now what? Back to the bus bombings of the second Palestinian intifada? Wind the clock back 10 years?
On Tuesday night, when Secretary of State Hillary Clinton arrived in Jerusalem, it felt like a cease-fire was imminent. Today, it feels like it's the last thing on anybody's mind.
It's hard to gauge what the majority of Israelis want to see happen now. A poll in the left-leaning daily Haaretz newspaper published Monday found that more than 90 percent of Israeli Jews supported Operation Pillar of Defense, Israel's aerial attack on Gaza.
At the same time, though, only 30 percent of the public polled supported any ground incursion into Gaza.
Anecdotally, I've heard almost every possible opinion on the progression of the war here, as with many things in Israel.
One I've heard a few times is: "We have to finish what we didn't finish four years ago" during Operation Cast Lead, the last Israeli war with Hamas. But then another Israeli might come back with: 'what do you mean, finish it? How do you finish this?'
I've been to both our family doctor and our dentist in this past week of conflict, just by accident of appointments. (I told you how life goes on as normal here). Both are religious Jews who immigrated to Israel, one from New York and the other from South Africa.
Both doctors were completely convinced an Israeli ground incursion into Gaza was imminent. Like during Cast Lead. Absolutely, they said.
Not that they were advocating it (I wasn't completely sure if they were or weren't). Both men have sons in the Israeli reserve, though.
My family doctor, the South African, was telling me that last Friday, when the first air raid siren sounded in Jerusalem, his son had just been released from the hospital. The phone rang all morning at home, with a taped announcement that his son had been called up and needed to report. They couldn't respond to the taped message, telling them he still needed to recover. A few hours later, an army official appeared at the door.
His son kept insisting he'd be better any minute; his doctor father was saying he wouldn't.
"You don't want your son to go?" I asked.
"You got that right," he answered.
"But he does want to go," I said. No response.
Daniela Deane, a former Washington Post reporter, is a freelance writer living in Jerusalem.

A STAND up comedian cut the ribbon at the grand opening of Mosley Common in Bloom on Friday.
Justin Moorhouse helped the volunteer group open the event which was designed to thank businesses, councillors and residents who have supported them.
They have helped the group to raise money to install a new ornate circular cast iron seat and a notice board on the village common.
More than 30 people turned out to see Justin cut the ribbon and to hear heartfelt speeches from Maxine Abberley, the group's chairman.
She said: "The group aims to put Mosley Common firmly on the map of Wigan rather than it being a forgotten corner at the furthest tip of the borough."
Guests later tucked in to a cake specially commissioned for the event and took part in a flower themed music quiz.

Walmart opens second San Jose grocery store
San Jose is the site of the newest Walmart Neighborhood Market, which is opening Wednesday in the Evergreen district of the city.
Walmart is in a long-vacant space that Lunardi's Market once occupied. The new full-service grocery store will offer locally produced fruits and vegetables, fresh bread, meats, cheeses and prepared foods. It also will have a self-service deli and organic items.
Walmart will employ about 90 people at the store in Evergreen Village Square, just off Aborn Road. The store is about 41,000 square feet in size.
In October, a Walmart Neighborhood market opened in southwest San Jose in a former Safeway store. That 38,000-square-foot grocery employs 90 people.
Oakland retains Ask in downtown district
Oakland has retained a key corporate player with the decision by Ask.com to renew its lease in a downtown office tower, the developer said Tuesday.
Ask.com renewed its lease for 79,000 square feet at 555 12th Street in Oakland City Center, according to executives with CB Richard Ellis, a commercial realty firm.
Oakland City Center is now 94 percent leased. The 555 12th Street office tower is 98 percent leased, CB Richard Ellis said. Ask.com is the largest tenant in the office and retail complex.
"This level of leasing, including the Ask.com renewal, reaffirms the attractiveness of the property," said Ming Lee, an executive with CB Richard Ellis, which through an affiliate is a primary owner of Oakland City Center.
Robert Half profit up on demand for workers
Menlo Park-based Robert Half International said its profit soared in the fourth quarter because of rising demand for temporary and full-time workers, especially in the United States.
The staffing services firm earned $58.3 million on revenue of $1.03 billion for the quarter that ended Dec. 31.
Compared with the year-ago quarter, profit jumped 38 percent and revenue rose 5.8 percent. Per-share profit totaled 42 cents. Wall Street had expected a profit of 41 cents.
Solta Medical buys Sound Surgical
Hayward-based Solta Medical announced Tuesday that it has paid $30.5 million in stock and cash to buy Colorado-based Sound Surgical Technologies.
Solta is buying Sound Surgical for $25.5 million in Solta's common stock and $5 million in cash. The transaction should be completed before the end of March.
Solta in 2012 generated revenue of $144.2 million to $144.7 million, according to a preliminary estimate provided Tuesday by the company. Solta makes a noninvasive skin-tightening system that uses radio frequency energy to banish wrinkles on the face and hands, around the eyes, and other body parts.

Tennessee's so-called "ag gag" bill drew fire from clergy and celebrities alike, and on Monday Gov. Bill Haslam vetoed the bill that would have required evidence of animal abuse be turned over to law enforcement within 24 hours.
Haslam opted to veto the bill for three reasons, stated in a news release:
- The Attorney General says the law is constitutionally suspect.
- It appears to repeal parts of Tennessee's Shield Law.
- Some district attorneys warned that it would make it more difficult to prosecute animal cruelty cases.
Despite his veto, Haslam reaffirmed his commitment to agricultural producers in the state.
"Agriculture is the No. 1 industry in Tennessee. Farmers play a vital role in our state's economy, heritage and history. I understand their concerns about large scale attacks on their livelihoods. I also appreciate that the types of recordings this bill targets may be obtained at times under false pretenses, which I think is wrong," Haslam said.

MORE than ten per cent of all people arrested by North Yorkshire Police for drug offences last year were under the age of 18.
Figures released by police under the Freedom Of Information Act showed 96 out of the 1,036 arrests for drug offences made in 2013 were aged under 17, with the youngest being just 13-years-old.
On a positive note, the number of drug arrests was down in 2013 on previous years, from 1,211 in 2012, 1,320 in 2011 and 1,255 in 2010, but the ratio of under-18s remained roughly similar.
In 2012, 119 of 1,211 drug arrests involved children aged between 13 and 17. In 2011, 138 of 1,320 were aged 13 to 17, and in 2010, 132 of 1,255 drug arrests were aged under 18 - with the youngest arrested aged just 11.
A spokeswoman for North Yorkshire Police said the figures showed not only that access to drugs was not limited to adults, but reinforced the fact that everyone had a duty of care to deal with this behaviour.
She said: "Sadly, children do have access to drugs and it's important that intervention is made at an early age to prevent them from getting caught up in criminality which is often associated with drugs. North Yorkshire Police work with a number of organisations to identify children at risk and drive forward effective initiatives to identify, assess and support those children at the earliest opportunity.
"This approach includes actively engaging with the young person and their family as well as working innovatively with partners within the criminal justice system and other agencies to maximise early intervention and prevention approaches, with the aim of diverting children away from a life of crime to become responsible members of society.
"We all have a duty of care – from parents and professionals to the wider community - to ensure our young people grow up in a nurturing and positive environment and go on to become law-abiding adults."
