Daniel Day-Lewis as Lincoln and The Deep Blue Sea star Rachel Weisz have been awarded the top male and female acting awards of 2012 by the New York Film Critics Circle, with Sally Field also getting notice as Best Supporting Actress for Lincoln. But before you start to think that Steven Spielberg's biopic of our 16th president also has been named Best Picture, think again: Zero Dark Thirty has stealthily snuck in to claim the top prize, with its helmer Kathryn Bigelow nabbing the Best Director award.
The awards were tweeted one-by-one today by the NYFCC, doling out other big awards as well: Matthew McConaughey has been named Best Supporting Actor for his performances in both Bernie and Magic Mike, and Best Animated Film went to Tim Burton's Frankenweenie.

The choices are interesting to note in that both Argo and Les Miserables have entered the awards season as titles to beat in 2012, but were curiously omitted by the NYFCC at the finish line.

8 January 2014
Quadrise Fuels International Plc
("QFI", "Quadrise" or the "Company")
Update on active programmes.
Quadrise, the emerging supplier of MSAR®, a low-cost alternative to fuel oil in the shipping, refining, and power generation markets, is pleased to issue this update on its principal project programmes to the year ending December 2013.
Marine MSAR®2
The fuel required for the 'proof of concept' seaborne programme was loaded in November for supply to two Maersk ships equipped with Wärtsilä and MAN Diesel two stroke propulsion engines respectively. The fuel will be used periodically in a series of programmes involving specific operations and load conditions that will lead to final approval to commence the next phase.
The seaborne programmes are substantially independent. The Wärtsilä programme is under way and at sea. The MAN Diesel programme awaits results from a precursor land-based engine test required to provide settings for optimal seaborne operation. The land-based test has unfortunately been delayed due to external factors not related to Quadrise, and the required information may not be available before end-January 2014.
The 'proof of concept' confirmation will signal the transition to commercial operations and the determination of contractual terms between the parties - Quadrise International Limited ("QIL"), the refiner and the shipping company. The first joint activity will involve installation of manufacturing capacity and production of Marine MSAR®2 fuel to provide for up to 4,000 hours of seaborne performance data collection on each engine type.
This resulting data is expected to support the issue of Letters of No Objection ("LONOs") to be supplied by the respective engine manufacturers for the use of Marine MSAR®2 in the engine types concerned. These are the latest two stroke main propulsion engines used in the largest container ships, most modern oil tankers and dry cargo bulk carriers.
Saudi Arabia
Saudi Aramco has designated a very large refinery for the first installation for commercial production. Selection was based on both scale of opportunity and ease of supply to a major steam and power generation facility located on the same site, and integrated operationally with the refinery.
QIL and Aramco have agreed that the first step should be a 'commercial pilot plant' which, on success will form the first production module of a significantly larger scale operation.
Quadrise and the Rafid Group are in discussion with Aramco on concluding the terms for supply of QIL services and resources for the MSAR® plant installation, and fuel supply and use at nearby power plants.
South America
The current focus is on the Joint Feasibility Study with Ecopetrol for supply of MSAR® fuel into the South and Central American power and marine markets.
In December QIL participated in a joint on-site review at the nominated Ecopetrol refinery to determine a preferred location for the MSAR® Manufacturing Unit ("MMU") and re-confirm the estimated manufacturing economics. Refinery residue samples are en-route to the MSAR® research facilities to confirm their suitability for MSAR® manufacturing.
The next phase of the study will be to finalise the installation costs, review logistics and identify the prospective client base in the power generation and marine markets. This activity is expected to be completed during the next six months.
Global Major
QIL and the Global Major have confirmed that residue may be available on a multi-site basis and could be processed into MSAR® fuel for either thermal power or marine applications. It is therefore prudent to await the marine 'proof of concept' confirmation as described in more detail above before discussing the next steps in the programme. Assured future Marine MSAR® fuel demand will affect the preferred direction of the programme for the next phase, and this should be clarified during 2014.
Corporate Resources
The active programmes have been both de-risked and broadened over the past year, with an increased number of ventures planned to enter the commercial phase over the next 24 months. This naturally has consequences for technical, commercial and operational management resources and for Group funding.
As regards staffing and structure, requirements have been defined and specialist consultants engaged to assist with selective personnel recruitment. The target is to complete recruitment by mid-2014 to ensure capacity to support all key programmes and maintain a high standard of professionalism across a broader front.
As regards funding, the board of the Company (the "Board") has re-confirmed that debt finance will be precluded until production related revenues are contractually assured. As advised in the 2013 Annual Report, the combination of a broader portfolio of high quality projects, and the need for additional staff to support active programmes, have increased the call on available funds beyond that anticipated when QFI last raised additional equity in November 2012. The Board favours a prudent approach to funding in these circumstances by securing a reasonable reserve to cover all eventualities. It has become clear that additional equity funds should be raised in the current year, preferably before end March 2014. The anticipated level of fundraising will be within the existing shareholder approvals obtained at the AGM in November 2013.

After playing online for about two years starting on Party, then Stars and finally Full Tilt I have seen and experienced some truly horrific bad beats and heard all the tag lines bout the sites "riverstars" "partyjoker" etc, etc. But was jus wandering what the general thoughts of the online player is on what sites they prefer, think dishes the worst beats, or just generally don't like the software and would really like ya feedback.
For me personally I think Full tilt is the best, obv cos its the only site iv made a decent profit on. I used to think Party poker was the worst, but I was a donkey when I first started playing there and don't find it to bad now. And personally think that Pokerstars is just sooooooo sick. Im pretty sure alot of you are gonna say that all sites are the same and guess its just how good u run on some rather than others but would like ya thoughts. Thanks pockets0071
riverstars got it's name for a reason. truly the worst site on the planet at beats.
has to be stars, you want the fish to make those piss poor calls, but you want the math to work out and have your good hands hold but it dont happen on stars
without a doubt pokerstars
dont cash out and ur ok
I play on Stars and Tilt. They are both bad. Bottom line, continue to get your money in good, and there are plenty of donks playing from all over the world that will hit the most ridiculous suckouts to sap your confidence right away. I swear, it happens way too often online.
^^^^ I play on both too. I used to think just Stars but now I see it is Tilt too and of course Party before the onset of the Dark Ages (UIGEA)
You couldn't have said any better what you did above.
i have witnessed horrible beats also, but i believe after playin every poker site out there that pokerstars gives the worst beats, it just seems the winning hand cant be a pair, always 2 pair or better, its odd, i prefer full tilt, seems the best to me.. gl
Pokerstars. Got so sick of it i went to bodog. Have not seen anything like i have on stars or FT. Like i tell everyone if it keeps on happen why not leave??????

USN-928-1: Sudo vulnerability
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-928-1
15th April, 2010
sudo vulnerability
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 9.10
- Ubuntu 9.04
- Ubuntu 8.10
- Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Software description
- sudo
Valerio Costamagna discovered that sudo did not properly validate the path
for the 'sudoedit' pseudo-command when the PATH contained only a dot ('.').
If secure_path and ignore_dot were disabled, a local attacker could exploit
this to execute arbitrary code as root if sudo was configured to allow the
attacker to use sudoedit. By default, secure_path is used and the sudoedit
pseudo-command is not used in Ubuntu. This is a different but related issue
to CVE-2010-0426.
Update instructions
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package version:
- Ubuntu 9.10:
- sudo-ldap 1.7.0-1ubuntu2.2
- sudo 1.7.0-1ubuntu2.2
- Ubuntu 9.04:
- sudo-ldap 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu3.2
- sudo 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu3.2
- Ubuntu 8.10:
- sudo-ldap 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.3

About Me
I am very serious about taking life not too seriously in order to take it very seriously.
I like a lot of things. The things that i like, i like to to do them a lot. when i was a child i loved sports. now that i am all grown up i like to educate myself and get educated and, if possible, educate others on my perspective.
I try to take the stance that i know very little about only a few things. Therefore i believe in attempting to take in as many different perspectives of life as possible.
Some ways of doing things are better than others for different things. Profound, no?
I find that one of the best possible ways of understanding other people is to find out what their favorite music is. Mine: Bach, Arvo Pärt, Radiohead and Gorillaz. Favourite artist, Glenn Gould.
I believe that i stated it more or less in my personal description. I understand the moment, and knowledge to be far too dynamic to be given a great deal of emphasis and thus everything must be kept in perspective.
perhaps a more intelligible statement is better stated by Plato:
There are two things a person should never be angry at, what they can help, and what they cannot.
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I have heard great things about couch surfing and would like to experience it for myself.
Music. Philosophy. People. Jokes. Food. and interesting things are also usually interesting.

I am a teacher in a community in Western Alaska with fewer inhabitants than found on most city blocks. (150) I live over 500 miles away from the nearest library,(or road for that matter) that would even consider stocking up on the archives mentioned by JC in his earlier post, (adjusting and maintaining ph (1/14/00). The personal connections with qualified people willing to share their information (Bruce Rittel especially)has made more difference in my tanning in a matter of weeks than I have been able to make in 8 years. I have books and numerous phone calls to suppliers and people in the industry to try and figure out the tanning process. I was still not satisfied. It was the unconditional help that I received from this forum and the people in it that made the difference for me. Talking to someone who has done it and does it everyday with the newest information and products is what I think it is all about. I guess that is why my blood is boiling after reading the dialog that pursued in the post(adjusting and mauntaining pH (1/14/00). JC your obvious wealth in information is greatly overshadowed by your lack of respect for the post writers. I took it as a personal insult. I can't imagine how sleepy felt. You can blast me if you want. I am used to it. I trap the animals, you forum users mount, at -30 below. You won't keep me from going to the forum. But I sure hate to see you chase people away from it with your ill lack of respect for the readers. If you are not willing to help then stay away. It is your decision to post or not.

Point well taken, but before lashing out at John C, think for a minute about who often
asks questions here. Beginners with little or no experience and kids, yes young kids
starting out in the hobby.
You know tanning, so you also know how dangerous an acid with a pH of 1.5, truly is.
John doesn't know the experience of the person asking the question, neither do you
or I. So John's suggestion that sleepy, create a knowlegde base by reading a book is
not the terrible answer you took it to be.
I wouldn't type out, how for you to reload my 300 Wby ammo, and I don't believe you
would either. But if asked, I bet you would too, think about the novice's safety and then
suggest that he read one or more books on reloading, before tackling that 300 mag reload.
With home accidents increasing at such an alarming rate that the national press last
week ran stories about OSHA getting involved with the safety of the home workplace,
John did the best thing, suggesting that this person seek the basics before risking his
safety by mixing a home acid. I for one can not fault John at all.
Please reconsider your position on this matter Len. Either way thanks for your imput.
This response submitted by MarkV on 1/14/00. ( firstname.lastname@example.com ) 126.96.36.199
Dear Len, I just wanted to add that I agree with you as far as my personal experience goes Bruce Rittel is the most knowledgeable tanning authority I know of. Not to say that there isnt anyone out there that knows as much but I havent talked to one yet. Before I learned of Bruces stuff I used formic acid, phenol and other chemicals that you could have serious health problems from. Now I feel confident that the stuff I use isnt gonna give me burns or gang green at the touch. Has anyone ever had formic acid on their skin? Im sure there is a few out there. Anyway I just want to say Hats off to Mr. Rittel for all the great products and a vast world of knowledge to all. Good luck to everyone, MarkV
This response submitted by Len on 1/14/00. ( firstname.lastname@example.com ) 126.96.36.199
Point well taken. I agree that researching is a key. It can be done
here or at the lib. Some don't have that luxory of a library.To answer a post as JC did
hum looks like you need some books
This response submitted by John C on 1/14/00. ( ) 22.214.171.124
Not being a smart XXX on this but go to a libary and check some out/ JOHN C
This is no help to anyone. Especially to some one who needs help fast. It wasn't until the tif between wayne and JC became apparent that JC offered his knowledge.
If you don't want to help. Let someone else reply. All I know is that I felt very upset at the dialog that was used. I won't post that. Lets keep it to advice that betters the forum and doesn't alienate the readers.
How about the name of a good book. Now that would be helpful. I have yet to have a good one reccommended to me to purchase. Lord knows I can't check one out at the local library.
Sorry to add to what I am speaking out against but I hate to see people get shot down and I want all to know it so it can be avoided.
Waiting to be bit

I can appreciate your thick skin. Mine has enough scar tissue to hold its own too, but Bob hit is square on the head.
These forums are the best thing in this industry since we stopped using brains and urine to tan with, but it is NOT the panacea of all the neophytes who want to jump right into the middle of the industry. Look at the recent entries in the last 5 days and you'll see that even in that short period, we've had the same questions asked more than once. This generation wants to jump in, screw up, and bail out when things go to hell, and it's our (the old guys) fault for not giving them enough information soon enough. All coments like yours do is to drive us from even bothering with ANY advice.
How about me coming up to Alaska and going grizzly bear hunting out in the bush alone? How about running your trap lines depending on a Gortex jacket, long johns and leather boots? How about hunting sheep, or salmon fishings, or going after big halibut in a row boat? That's a field of YOUR expertise. How would you react if you were asked about that? And just why can't I hunt the same day I fly in?
John C might not have the tact of a politician, but I hope and pray he never has to stoop that low to become politically correct. Remember that small paragraph that follows the main body of the US Constitution. Because you don't want to hear what someone says, has absolutely nothing to do with their right to say it - just like you just proved- I might add. In America I can't weld commercially without a certification, I can't scuba dive, I can't fly, I can't drive, I can't be a bank teller, a tax preparer or a GRADE SCHOOL TEACHER without some formal training and certification. But I can jump in and call myself a taxidermist and work with chemicals that can easily kill or maim myself with impugnity. Picking up a hide and trying to tan it doesn't make you a taxidermist any more than going to McDonalds makes you a hamburger.
You have the unique opportunity to teach younger people that along with knowlege comes responsibility. Freedom has never been free, and simply by living here doesn't obligate others to indulge in assuming it for them.
This response submitted by John C on 1/14/00. ( ) 188.8.131.52
Let me make one thing clear. Another taxidermist in a near by state tried to help a KID learn to tan. This beginner thought that he could use bleach as a acid. Well this child now is in the ICU, with less than a 30% chance to live. THe crap he tried blew up.
Now guess who was found accountable and liable. Yes the taxidermist. This kids hospital bills are now over $100,000, Damages have been negotiated and a out of court settlement reach of the punitive level.
Now do you want the responability?
References is a must for tanning or taxidermy.
Wayne was not any help to that person.
WAYNE could get the person killed with the simple explanation.
Do you Len buffer your solutions before disposale? Few do!!! I do have to do the politically correct crap.
Firm correct conditions should applie and the reference have the receipes you and Sleepy need. Sincerly John C
This response submitted by sleepy! on 1/15/00. ( ) 18.104.22.168
sorry fellas if i started a riot but i would like to comment on a few of your posts first of all you ain't dealing with no youngster,m second of all i as len is a hard working trapper who supplies much fur to friends and buissnesses alikeand needed a little input. just for the hell of it i use citric acid for pickling don't think i will get hurt with that nasty stuff huh fellas. and as far as that generation crap, you are the ones that passed the torch if i am correct. personally all i wanted was a little advice from some differant people. so don't ASSUME you are always dealing with a kid. i do trapping seminars and am also frequent on the trapping forums, i am asked the same questions by new and old trappers all the time but i try to answer each respectively. if you can't help out "DON'T" I COULD CARE LESS! happy trappin, gotta ck the line, sleepy!
This response submitted by Bob B on 1/15/00. ( email@example.com ) 184.108.40.206
I do apoligize, if I offended you. I wasn't trying to imply that
you are a kid. The point is you could have been. Had your first
post explained a little more of your background, assistance with
such a dangerous question, may have been more quickly and freely
As an example, now you mention how safe you are with citric acid.
Guess what sleepy, a pickle with a pH of 1.5 achieved with citric
acid with burn you as bad as an acid with a pH of 1.5 reached by
using formic acid. This is exactly why John C was trying to be so
careful in this question. Citric is often used by those concerned
with possible carcingenics, and or chemicals that may cause later
damage after being disposed of. That was the basis of that John
Travolta firm "A Civil Action".
After all the question, wasn't about mixing a hidepaste, it was
about rising or lowering the pH of a very acidic pickle. One thing
that still stands out from my Organic Chemistry Professor was his
very loud screams - that you never add water to a pickle, it wasn't
because water will raise the pH (water usually being more neutral)
but because that's how accidents happen, by creating a splash.
Sleepy, you splash a citric acid pickle with a pH of 1.5 into your
eyes, you'll lose your sight, just as fast as any of your trapped
critters die to your connibears. I hope you care appreciate John's
concern for your safety, or that of others thinking of pickling
their hides or capes, without a solid knowledge base.
This response submitted by John C on 1/15/00. ( ) 18.104.22.168
Were you 6 years old or 60? You did not give much information. Since you are in a learning stage, it is still better to be reminded of the research needed for becoming a tanner. Your question was a simple one, yes it did show to me and many other lack of experience. Your are learning!
Just finished watching Civial Action.
Many states are now adopting a HAZWOPER license. WHat this concerns is handling HAZARDOUS MATERIALS, guess what TANNERS AND TAXIDERMIST are includeed in the FEDERAL OUTLINE of those to be licensed by 2010. Most samller city sewer systems can be screwed up but just one vat on acidic coumpounds that are not neutralized. End result can be fines that will force you to shut down.
Use the info that apllies and blow the other off. You are not the only one that will read the post, what would happen to someone just starting out????? This is always a concern for me, I don't want to get anyone hurt of killed with the info I put out. John C
This response submitted by sleepy! on 1/15/00. ( ) 22.214.171.124
guys, here the deal i am currently tanning a few yote and coon hides. i use the curatan kit out of van dykes. pickling crystals are the enviornmentally safe, non burn type. i can attest to this as i have gotten this on my skin, no oxalic or sulphuric acids present with this kit. i like the tan it produces nice soft stretchy leather hardly any breaking required. now for the problem i have noticed traces of hairslip especially with fox and yotes, the problem area seems to be around the ears, yes they have been turned and salted till the cows come home. another question how do you fella feel as borax for a fat lifter during the fleshing process. nowhere on the curatan kit is mentioned ph, now on getting slight hairslip ( i am a perfectionist who takes pride in a good tan) i follow the directions to the letter ratios etc. i just needed a little more understanding of the ph and how it affects the hide while pickling. its the same as asking a trapper which trap or set he prefers, fistfights have started over this. yes i also now there are some morons out there who can't tie their own shoelaces. but if i need help i want a straight up answer much like i would try to give you if you needed my help. may your furs be prime, and stretchers full. sleepy!
This response submitted by Bill on 1/15/00. ( firstname.lastname@example.com ) 18.104.22.168
and here we go again. I read this whole post as it progressed, even emailed one of the guys to clarify. I say that, yes, we have to take precautions when we give certain advice. We dont expect you guys with easier questions to give us background checks, but we sure as hell do expect that you might undestand that we dont know what level you ARE at. Based on the question, I still wouldnt. You ask a technical question, yet you are using a basic beginners type kit for tanning. Who knew? I even got a piece of what I call "hate email" that I think a guy screwed up and forwarded to me by mistake! You guys would have loved to read THAT one! All that, and the question STILL gets asked? Unbelieveable!

Conservative authorities claim President Barack Obama should not be entertaining ideas of releasing oil from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR).
And though the president says hes doing no such thing, a British official with knowledge of the discussion confirmed Obama raised the issue during a broad bilateral meeting with British Prime Minister David Cameron last week.
In fact, Obama called for that solution as a candidate in 2008 when gasoline prices neared $4 per gallon.
Both the prime minister and the president are known to be extremely concerned that instability in the Middle East and talk of a war between Israel and Iran could drive up oil prices with serious consequences for global economic recovery.
Stephen Allison, a retired economic assistant with Strategic Petroleum Reserve, told Sunshine State News Sunday that releasing oil from the Reserve is still not a good idea for anything but the very short term.
The SPR, managed by the Department of Energy (DOE), exists for moments of national crisis when there is a dramatic disruption in oil supplies, Allison said. The current high prices at the pump are a national concern, but playing politics with a national security asset is not the way to address the problem.
He said the global oil market can adjust to supply disruptions. Releasing reserves now simply allows the administration to avoid addressing the underlying problem with U.S. energy policy.
The Heritage Foundations David Kreutzer also claims an SPR oil release is a bad idea. If there is going to be a one-shot injection into the system, the price will drop during the injection and bounce back after it stops. The speculators simply kept that price dip/jump from being bigger than it otherwise would have been by buying as the oil was released and reselling when the release stopped.
Crude oil production on federal and Indian lands decreased 13 percent from 739 million barrels in fiscal 2010 to 646 million barrels in fiscal 2011. Production of crude oil on federal lands is dominated by offshore production, which fell by 17 percent in fiscal 2011, notably due to government actions taken following the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010.
According to Heritage's Kreutzer, ramping up production on federal lands where we do have access will bring more supply to offset higher global demand.
President Obama admitted in his weekly address Saturday that he cant do much to lower gas prices, and renewed his call for Congress to end tax breaks for oil companies.
The truth is, the price of gas depends on a lot of factors that are often beyond our control, the president said. "Unrest in the Middle East can tighten global oil supply. Growing nations like China or India adding cars to the road increases demand.
In 2008, Obama stood in front of a gas station near Indianapolis and pledged to take steps to reduce the price of oil. He focused on long-term actions such as increasing fuel efficiency standards and promoting clean energy, which he has done as president. Those measures have yet to show they are working.
The first words Obama delivered publicly after David Cameron's departure from Washington were on the problem of U.S. gas prices.
The idea of releasing oil stocks has happened in the U.K. before. In June last year the U.K. and its partners in the International Energy Agency (IEA) released 60 million barrels of oil with the U.K. contributing 3 million.
In the U.S., oil reserves were tapped in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina and at the time of Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990/91.
Whether there is any truth to the rumor of a joint U.S.-U.K. oil release from the respective reserves, it doesnt matter, says Heritage. The idea is nothing more than a temporary political fix -- one that could make us worse off, should events deteriorate further in the Middle East.
Obama's approval ratings have come under pressure from rising gasoline prices, which have hit seasonal record highs, and the White House is eager to show exasperated Americans that it is doing all it can to keep fuel costs in check.
Republicans are bound to see an SPR release as a gimmick to appease voters during an election year.

Fantasie Response:
If the strapless does not stay up it is too big in the band. You might need a 28F (D4) cup. The problem with the silicone in the band could mean that you are possibly having an allergic reaction to the silicone which can happen with some customers, or it could be because the bra is rubbing on you due to the bra not staying in place because the band is too big.
Fantasie Response:
The 4530 usually runs full in the cup rather than small. The deco strapless in Freya is a little less coverage and has a plungier silhouette.
Brittany from Los Angeles, CA
Fantasie Response:
The cup usually runs big, but you might want to try going up a cup!!! This is a super great strapless bra!!!
Pros: The band fits wonderfully - perfectly snug, the way I like it - so no problems there. The silicon grips make it feel very secure.
Cons:The cups are definitely too big and gap away from me at the sides, though. Having nursed 3 children, I'm not perky at all anymore, so I could understand a bit of a gap at the top. But the sides? Also, while I like separation in a regular bra, I find that I prefer a little more cleavage with a strapless, given the type of dresses and tops I would wear a strapless bra with. This bra is almost a minimizer in this respect, and offers no cleavage enhancement at all, which is fine, but not what I'm looking for. I don't think that this will change with a smaller cup size and I'm hesitant to go smaller than a 36F to get a good fit. So this bra is going back and I'll have to try a different brand.
Fantasie Response:
You might try the 36F. If the bra is gapping at the sides it should be too large. It is difficult to find a push up strapless in your cup size, but you could also try the Freya strapless Deco style 4233
for a little more "vavoom".
Jen from Lacey, WA USA
Fantasie Response:
The Fantasie strapless is one of the best strapless bras out there for larger busted women. The cup does run a little full so make sure you do not need a 30F.

Finuge protesters stand firm to try to stop wind farm
WIND FARM construction will have to at least treble in Kerry and other coastal counties if the State is to meet its 2020 Kyoto targets, according to one of the companies behind the hugely-controversial plans for a wind farm in Finuge.
North Kerry can expect to see scores of new applications being lodged with the local authority in the coming years as the wind farm industry squares up to what one of the Finuge project planners described as its biggest challenge.
Wind farm construction will have to increase by three or four times the current rate to meet the State's 2020 target of generating 40 per cent of our electricity from wind energy by 2020, chief planner on the Finuge project Brian Keville, of Galway-based consultant planners McCarthy Keville O'Sullivan, told The Kerryman.
It is against this background Stacks Mountain Windfarm Ltd is lodging an application to erect ten massive turbines in Finuge - which would be the highest in the country - in what has become one of the most controversial wind energy projects ever seen in the county.
Up to 300 locals in the Ballyhorgan area of Finuge and surrounding townlands erected signs outside their homes indicating all are up for sale pending a decision on the windfarm application.
The dramatic gesture has captured national and international attention.
Mr Keville has moved to assure locals their concerns are mainly unfounded, saying there is no research to suggest that house prices or health would be affected by the presence of the massive turbines.
"There is simply no evidence to say that people won't be able to open their windows with the noise, that they won't be able to sleep at night or that their health will be impacted, these beliefs are not informed by the evidence," he said. Wind energy companies are required to ensure homes are not affected by 'shadow flicker', for example, for any longer than half an hour in the day.
"In Kerry the average amount of sunshine per day is between 28 and 30 per cent of daylight. The location of the turbines, sun and home is known at all times and companies simply turn off individual turbines to ensure they do not exceed the guideline of a maximum 30 minutes' shadow flicker per day on an individual home," Mr Keville said.
Finuge was chosen as the nearest suitable location to an ESB substation in Muingnaminane.
"The Stacks mountains are no longer feasible due to wildlife protection status so the company looked to the nearest possible location feasible and open to consideration for windfarm development under the County Development Plan," he added.

Instead, being crowded out of prime shots by some 30 Russian photographers led the young Hopkins to assert his leadership skills.
Hopkins called a meeting of all the photographers. Using a Russian interpreter, Hopkins framed the issue in three steps:
- He pointed out that this was surely the most vital meeting of the war, and that it was their responsibility to record it.
- He sketched the problem. So far, all the photographers had done was take pictures of each other's backs.
- He proposed a solution: reducing the number of photographers.

Thoughts on the Baltimore Ravens' 30-27 win to the visiting Arizona Cardinals:
What it means: The Ravens avoided a second straight loss to a one-win team. Baltimore trailed 24-3 late in the second quarter before scoring 24 straight points. The Ravens improve to 5-2 to keep pace in the competitive AFC North.
Game-winner: Billy Cundiff's 25-yard field goal as time expired allowed the Ravens to overcome their first-half struggles. The game-winner was set up by Joe Flacco's 36-yard pass to rookie Torrey Smith.
Thumbs up: Ray Rice and Anquan Boldin. Rice was involved in the offense again with three touchdowns after eight carries on Monday night. Boldin carried the offense in the second-half rally and finished with 145 yards on seven catches.
Thumbs down: Penalties and pass protection. The Ravens had to sweat this one in the second half because of mistakes. They were flagged 11 times for 99 yards. The biggest problem in the first half was the Ravens' blocking. Flacco had no time in an ever-collapsing pocket.
Flacco watch: Flacco shrugged off a terrible start to go 19-for-28 for 238 yards in the second half. It was his third 300-yard passing performance in his past five games.
What's next: The Ravens play at the Pittsburgh Steelers seven weeks after they beat their AFC North rival, 35-7, in the season opener.

TRENTON, N.J., Jan. 9 (UPI) -- A mile-long dam of ice on the Delaware River near Trenton, N.J., brought street flooding and flash flood warnings Wednesday.
A portion of Route 29, which runs along the river on the New Jersey side and of River Road in Pennsylvania were closed, WCAU-TV in Philadelphia reported.
Observers said the ice, large chunks crowded together, covered the entire river for at least a mile. The National Weather Service issued a flash flood warning for the 30-mile stretch of river between Trenton and Philadelphia.
"When this ice jam breaks, there may be enough water behind the jam to cause flash flooding downstream," the NWS said.
Temperatures in the area got down into the single digits Tuesday and never got above 12 degrees. Wednesday was slightly warmer but still well below freezing.
The jam might break up Thursday afternoon as the mercury rises into the mid-30s, forecasters said.
A similar ice jam formed in the Lehigh River, one of the Delaware's major tributaries, the (Allentown) Morning Call reported. Part of Lehigh Drive in Easton, Pa., was closed, and a woman had to be rescued from her car after it got stuck in water on the roadway.

text: Is it ethical to walk up to (and sometimes provoke a charge) wounded dangerous game (or any other game that would stand its ground and charge) instead of shooting them there & then as soon as eye contact is made with the quarry? Although the former (walking to the animal) does really put your nerves to the test, it does prolong the pain & sufferings of the animal. Tracking and shooting the wounded animal on first sight is a thrill but to some more 'intrepid' hunters, walking up to their wounded game and letting them decide the way they are going to die is the preffered way to settle terms with the prey. What are your opinions guys?

17 quarantined over Hong Kong bird flu
Hong Kong will quarantine 17 people after the city confirmed its first human case of the deadly strain of the H7N9 bird flu virus.
The 17 are mostly relatives of the employer of a 36-year-old Indonesian domestic helper, who is in critical condition in hospital after a visit to mainland China.
They were all taken to hospital for observation.
"If those who had been in close contact [with the patient] don't have symptoms, we will later arrange for them to enter quarantine facilities," said Hong Kong's Health Minister Ko Wing-man.
"Tonight, five people who were in close contact and do not show signs of infection will enter the quarantine," Mr Ko said, adding that they will be held until 10 days after their last contact with the carrier.
A government statement later said all 17 people had tested negative for the virus, but would be sent to a holiday village in the seaside town of Sai Kung "for medical surveillance".
The Indonesian domestic helper had a history of travelling to the mainland city of Shenzhen, just across the border with Hong Kong, and coming into contact with live poultry.
"She has a history of travelling to Shenzhen, buying a chicken, slaughtering and eating the chicken," Mr Ko said.
She was admitted to hospital on November 27 after developing a cough and shortness of breath.
Hong Kong has suspended imports of live poultry from Shenzhen and raised its flu contingency plan to "serious".
"At this point, we reckon it could be an imported case, but the government will continue to follow this up with full effort," said Hong Kong Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying.
Altogether, 137 human cases of H7N9 have been reported in mainland China since February with 45 deaths, according to the World Health Organisation.
In April Taiwan reported its first case, a 53-year-old man who had been working in eastern China.
The man was eventually discharged, but the case prompted the island's authorities to begin research into a vaccine, which they hope to roll out by late 2014.
In August, Chinese scientists reported the first likely case of direct person-to-person transmission of H7N9.
However, they stressed that it was still difficult for the virus, believed to jump from birds to people, to spread between humans.

I purchased my strimmer about 3 years ago mainly for use for the path on my allotment as I didn't fancy plugging a corded strimmer into the electric railway.
I have been pleased with the strimmer and have used it in my garden as well, it is ideal for cutting the edges of the lawn and although the plastic cutters do wear quite quickly, especially when hitting concrete or wood, they are quickly replaced and there is a convenient place behind the battery to store several spare ones.
B & Q sell their own replacement plastic cutters for this strimmer which are cheaper than Bosch

Thank you to all the NSCAD students who took time to meet with me yesterday afternoon following the on-campus peaceful demonstration about student tuition.
I appreciated listening to your passionate concerns about the rising cost of advanced education in Canada and the proposed tuition market adjustment at NSCAD University. The message I received from students yesterday is that you are concerned about the proposed tuition reset, not just because of the immediate impact it will have on you, but also about the impact these changes will have on future students. Thank you to SUNSCAD for your prepared statements and questions. What impressed me most was the energy in the room and your collective creativity in offering to explore alternative models for a sustainable future for NSCAD. Currently we are working to achieve the approved five-year Framework for Sustainability; and, as I said at the meeting, there are challenges and difficult decisions that have to be made. I acknowledge receipt of a letter addressed to the Chair of the Board of Governors from the Canadian Federation of Students Fédération canadienne des étudiantes et étudiants and a statement from NSCAD students. I also recognize the voices of students who were not at the meeting and sent messages of support of the positive changes at NSCAD and its revitalization. Thank you to all of the NSCAD community for working together.

Crystal structure analysis of human carbonic anhydrase II in complex with a benzenesulfonamide derivative
Structural highlights
[CAH2_HUMAN] Defects in CA2 are the cause of osteopetrosis autosomal recessive type 3 (OPTB3) [MIM:259730]; also known as osteopetrosis with renal tubular acidosis, carbonic anhydrase II deficiency syndrome, Guibaud-Vainsel syndrome or marble brain disease. Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disease characterized by abnormally dense bone, due to defective resorption of immature bone. The disorder occurs in two forms: a severe autosomal recessive form occurring in utero, infancy, or childhood, and a benign autosomal dominant form occurring in adolescence or adulthood. Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis is usually associated with normal or elevated amount of non-functional osteoclasts. OPTB3 is associated with renal tubular acidosis, cerebral calcification (marble brain disease) and in some cases with mental retardation.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
[CAH2_HUMAN] Essential for bone resorption and osteoclast differentiation (By similarity). Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. Can hydrate cyanamide to urea. Involved in the regulation of fluid secretion into the anterior chamber of the eye.[6] [7]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
N-(4-Sulfamoylphenyl)-alpha-d-glucopyranosylamine, a promising topical antiglaucoma agent, is a potent inhibitor of the zinc enzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 126.96.36.199). The high resolution X-ray crystal structure of its adduct with the target isoform involved in glaucoma, CA II, is reported here. The sugar sulfanilamide derivative binds to the enzyme in a totally new manner as compared to other CA-inhibitor adducts investigated earlier. The sulfonamide anchor was coordinated to the active site metal ion, and the phenylene ring of the inhibitor filled the channel leading to the active site cavity. The glycosyl moiety responsible for the high water solubility of the compound was oriented towards a hydrophilic region of the active site, where no other inhibitors were observed to be bound up to now. A network of seven hydrogen bonds with four water molecules and the amino acid residues Pro201, Pro202 and Gln92 further stabilize the enzyme-inhibitor adduct. Topiramate, another sugar-based CA inhibitor, binds in a completely different manner to CA II as compared to the sulfonamide investigated here. These findings are useful for the design of potent, sugar-derived enzyme inhibitors.

Liverpool appeared to be heading for a fourth defeat in five games against bogey side Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon.
Joe Ledley broke the deadlock early in the second half to put Palace 1-0 up before Liverpool vice-captain James Milner received a red card for a second bookable offence.
However, Brazil international Roberto Firmino capitalised on Alex McCarthy's mistake to halve the deficit before Christian Benteke won an added-time penalty for the hosts.
The Belgium international assumed responsibility from the penalty spot and duly dispatched his penalty with ease.
And Sakho selected one lucky, young Liverpool supporter to receive his signed match-day shirt following their 2-1 win at Premier League strugglers Palace.

Oh boy, if you've been pining hard for some simulated, grain grinding, crops cropping action, your wish has been granted: Farming Machines Championships 2014 has been released.
Gamers of an ilk who find themselves wanting to showcase their farming skills against fellow farm simulators have been given the short of the end stick in the interactive entertainment space, much like the professional cow milking simulators and the elephant dung-scooper simulators. That was the case, until PlayWay S.A., decided to hop onto the gravy tractor train and release Farming Machines Championships, featuring 11 "dynamic" events, 12 brand new farming machines and a wide range of various landscape types to compete across. You can even customize your farm equipment with hats and accessories, just like in real life!
Now, of course, an image and some brief description of a game doesn't do much to entice those with itchy fingers. I'm sure there are also gamers who dabbled in the previous iterations of Farming Machines who are wondering if this year's release is better than those prior? Well, you'll have to judge that by either playing the game or giving a looksy to the trailer below to make that decision.
Keep in mind that not everyone managed to make it through the following trailer without succumbing to a fine art known to mankind as sleep. It's a three-minute long trailer and it doesn't hold anything back... for better or for worse.
This is a fine compliment to other real-life simulator-based games, such as the highly lauded Woodcutter Simulator 2014, or Train Simulator 2014, featuring a Game of the Year worthy trailer with voiceover work from Sean Bean, in a rare instance where he doesn't actually die.
Gamers have also flooded to the forums and review threads for Farming Machines Simulator 2014, throwing out praises such as...
"This game is a scam, IMHO."
"Pick up Farm Sim 2012 instead?"
As well as very detailed descriptions on expanding your library by offering an exegesis of textual work that would have made Ebert smile before heading to the grave, with Steam user thePoark writing...
Finally! It's here.
That's very true thePoark... it is here. And you can be where Farming Machines Championships 2014 is by heading to the Steam Store page to either pick up a digital copy for only $10.49 (as it's 30% right now) or you can head to the official website to learn more.

Turkey: Mothers of "disappeared" take action: update 1
The body of another "disappeared" person has been identified by relatives examining photographs of unclaimed and unidentified bodies at the Forensic Medical Institute in Istanbul. Ridvan Karakoc, who was last heard of around 15 February 1995, was found dead in the Beykoz district of Istanbul on 2 March. The autopsy report of the Forensic Medical Institute records that he died on 1 March and that there were marks of torture of his body. His body had been buried as an unidentified person on 26 March but was exhumed on 2 June 1995 and buried on 3 June. AI is calling for the death of Ridvan Karakoc to be investigated by an independent and impartial body.

Re: WDYT of this sib set?
I love them!! That is one of my favourite books, too. I think that all the names sound good together, after all the characters were given names that existed together at the time. But I also think that mchobbit has a point, and that Mercedes stands out a bit from the other names because it is heard more often (why did they have to go and name the car Mercedes?? It totally ruins the name for me in terms of actual usage!).
Also, whenever I think about naming kids after characters from books, I think about how my kid might feel reading about that his namesake married someone with the same name as his brother or sister.

Many Servers Crash During CAT Online Exam, Fresh Exam In 10 DaysThe first-ever experiment of the IIMs to conduct its Common Admission Test (CAT) using computers ran into trouble today with servers crashing in 11 of the 105 centres across the country, affecting over 1500 students
The first-ever experiment of the IIMs to conduct its Common Admission Test (CAT) using computers ran into trouble today with servers crashing in 11 of the 105 centres across the country, affecting over 1500 students who would take the exam again within ten days.
Soon after the exam started, students faced problems in opening the computers at 11 centres in Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Bangalore, Kolkata and Bhopal.
Nearly 2.41 lakh students across the country had registered to take the exam for getting entry into seven Indian Institutes of Management and other elite B-schools.
Doing away with the paper-based system, the IIMs had entrusted the conduct of computer-based CAT 2009 to American firm Prometric. The firm has decided to spread the test over a period of ten days at 105 centres in 32 cities.
"Once the exam started, the screen went blank. We were made to sit in another room and there was no information given to us on what happened," said a candidate here.
Another student said they faced problem when they pressed the 'exit' button on the key board.
Prometric said the tests would be rescheduled within ten days for the affected students.
"It has certainly not been cancelled in any of the test centres. As a result of isolated technical issues, exam of some candidates are being rescheduled and provided with a new appointment via email and SMS," said Soumitra Roy, Managing Director, India, Prometric.
Convener of Common Admission Test Satish Deodhar said there was no widespread server crash but just delay. "There is no widespread server crash. What is happening is there are delays due to many process that we require to fulfill," he said.
To accommodate maximum number of candidates, Prometric and IIMs delayed the start of the morning session by about half an hour, Roy said.
However, IIM, Bangalore, Director Prof Pankaj Chandra claimed the first session of the examination was a "smooth affair".
There will be two rounds of test each day. The first round will be from 10 am to 12.30 pm while the second round from 3.30 pm to 6 pm, Prometric said.
A total of 2,41,582 students have registered for the exam this year, which is a marginal drop as compared to last year when 2,46,000 students appeared for CAT. The candidates will vie for around 2000 seats in IIMs. PTI

Little ORBY is "tired of space" as it states on his packge and now likes to spend his time here on earth crawling down walls as ORBY actually has little suction cups on a rotating wheel that enables him to crawl on walls and evidently even your ceiling. Today likely about 50 years after little ORBY was made I kind of doubt if his rubber sucytion cups will still work, but perhaps if you want to give him a try he just might. You are supposed to stick him to a window or smooth surface, then pull his spring activated rotating wheel via a string and off he goes. Come in colorful original box. I don't think he's been used. Spring action his very tight and seems like new just like the rest of ORBY. Packaging has a small tear at a staple that can easily be repaired with a little Elmers Glue.

South Korea will revoke an honorary title given to the socialite tied to a scandal involving former CIA director David Petraeus, officials in Seoul said today.
Jill Kelley misused her title as honorary consul by raising it in personal business dealings, a Foreign Ministry official.
A New York businessman said Kelley was introduced to him at the GOP Convention in Tampa in August as someone whose friendship with Petraeus would help facilitate a no-bid deal with South Korea on a coal-gasification project. But she demanded a 2 percent commission, said Adam Victor, president executive officer of TransGas Development Systems.
Kelley had complained that Petraeus' mistress, Paula Broadwell, had sent her threatening emails, telling her to stay away from the former general.

UN chief calls for real dialogue between Russia and Ukraine on Crimea crisisListen /
The UN Secretary-General has stressed that the current crisis between Russia Ukraine over Crimea can only be resolved through peaceful diplomatic solutions.
Ban Ki-moon spoke in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv where he met with Acting President Oleksandr Turchynov.
Mr. Ban is in Ukraine as part of his efforts to help resolve the crisis in the wake of the annexation of Crimea by Russia which has been largely condemned by the international community.
He told reporters on Friday that he was very seriously concerned about the tense situation within parts of Ukraine and between Ukraine and Russia.
"This current crisis can only be resolved through peaceful diplomatic solutions based on the principles of the United Nations Charter, including respect for the sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity of Ukraine, and a determined statesmanlike pursuit of peace and security. There has to be a real dialogue between Kyiv and Moscow." (28")
Before going to Ukraine, the Secretary-General was in Moscow where he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

Boehner to Speak At GAC
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) will speak at CUNA's Governmental Affairs Conference, the trade association announced today.
Boehner, a former small businessman, is scheduled to speak during the March 2 session of the conference.
Boehner, who became speaker earlier this month as a result of the GOP gaining a majority in the House in last November's election, will outline his legislative priorities for the upcoming Congress. He would be the second house speaker to address a GAC. Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) did so in 1998.
Other lawmakers speaking at the event include House Financial Services Committee Chairman Spencer Bachus (R-Ala.) and that panel's top Democrat Barney Frank (D-Mass.). All three NCUA Board members are scheduled to speak at the conference, as is Elizabeth Warren, who is leading the set up of the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
The conference runs from Feb. 27 to March 3.

Smith Op-Ed Won't Cause Instant Reform on Wall Street
If Greg Smith wanted revenge on Goldman Sachs, he definitely got it. In one trading day, Goldman lost $2.2 billion in stock value, with shares dropping 3.4%. It was the third-biggest decline in the S&P 500 index yesterday.
Smith, who also wrote that he was quitting after 12 years at the company, blamed Blankfein, 57, and President Gary D. Cohn, 51, for a "decline in the firm's moral fiber." They responded in a memo to current and former employees, saying that Smith's assertions don't reflect the firm's values, culture or "how the vast majority of people at Goldman Sachs think about the firm and the work it does on behalf of our clients."
Former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker, 84, whose "Volcker rule" would limit banks like New York-based Goldman Sachs from making bets with their own money, called Smith's article "a radical, strong" piece. "I'm afraid it's a business that leads to a lot of conflicts of interest," Volcker said at a conference in Washington sponsored by the Atlantic magazine.
But fear not for Goldman. They've made most of it back, today, up 2.35% so far. And before long the world will move on. The op-ed was emailed widely throughout Wall Street yesterday, according to many reports, but that was probably due to the envy of someone finally telling their boss to go screw themselves. There's a reason that only happens once in a while.
I'd like to think that there are "last straw" moments, when one man's clarity of vision forces a new reckoning, and every investor on Wall Street queues up to remove their money one by one from Goldman Sachs. Sadly, the world doesn't work that way. Maybe over a period of years, the unbridled greed will catch up to a Wall Street firm. In the short-term, it's unlikely.
I thought Nomi Prins, who was the original Goldman Sachs whistleblower, had a good take on all this:
I applaud Smith's decision to bring the nature of Goldman's profit-making strategies to the forefront of the global population's discourse, as so many others have been doing through books, investigative journalism, and the Occupy movements over the past decade since my book, Other People's Money, was written after I resigned from Goldman. It would be great if Smith's illuminations would serve as the turning point around which serious examination and re-regulation of the banking system framework would transpire.
The inherent conflict of interest that firms such as Goldman possess through enjoying the multiple roles of 'market-maker,' 'securities creator' and 'client-advisor' foster an environment rife with systemic risk. The trading revenue portion of Goldman's profits, as well as its derivatives vs. assets ratio, is the highest amongst the American bank holding companies. And yet, in the fall of 2008, the Federal Reserve approved Goldman Sachs (along with Morgan Stanley) to alter its moniker from investment bank to bank holding company, thereby allowing it to gain access to federal subsidies and potential ongoing support.
In this regard, the firm's practices should remain under intense scrutiny by the general public and legislators. I would hope that the message behind Smith's resignation will not be obfuscated by debates over the extent to which the firm's clients are either supported or exploited, but instead, serve as a powerful call to foster a more-strictly delineated and less reckless financial system.
In other words, it's not enough to just heavily sigh and say "well of course Goldman rips off its clients." I agree that investors need to wake up and understand how they're being fleeced, and that they have a role to play in the ultimate resolution of Wall Street perfidy. But public policy must also play a role in not only setting the boundaries of the financial system, but enforcing those boundaries. We're not really in a position to see that with the regulators we have in place right now. But that ought to be the goal, and we should not wait for the market to reform itself.

text: Despite congressional efforts to stop the practice of slaughtering horses in the United States for human consumption, the Agriculture Department announced Tuesday it would continue, the Associated Press reported.American horsemeat is sold mostly for human consumption in Europe and Asia, although some goes to U.S. zoos.Congress didn't ban horse slaughter outright. Instead, lawmakers last year used a tactic that is common in spending legislation. Horses must pass inspection by department veterinarians before they are slaughtered, so lawmakers voted to yank the salaries and expenses of those inspectors.Department officials maintain the law requires inspections regardless. They announced Tuesday they will pay for live horse inspections by charging the slaughter plants for inspections.Rep. John Sweeney, R-N.Y., denounced the decision, saying, "Commerce and greed have ruled the day. To end this practice, Congress, with widespread public support, passed an amendment by a landslide vote in both the House and the Senate," said Sweeney, who serves on the House Appropriations Committee. "This action is a direct defiance of congressional intent."The department "is thumbing its nose at Congress," said Michael Markarian, an official of the Humane Society of the United States. "The lives of America's horses, which have served us faithfully and provided us with companionship, are at stake."The department acted on requests from slaughter plants, two in Texas and one in Illinois, which said their communities could be facing $41 million in losses.Compared with the huge beef, pork, and poultry industries, horsemeat is a tiny business: Last year, plants slaughtered about 88,000 horses, mules and other equines, according to the USDA.Defenders say it's a low-cost, humane way of ending a horse's life. By law, horses and other livestock must be unable to feel pain before they are killed."We know there's not enough resources to care for these animals when they are no longer useful," said former Rep. Charles Stenholm, D-Texas, a consultant to the slaughter plants. "Without this option, it's more likely that these animals will be subject to inhumane treatment."Even if horse slaughter ended in the U.S., plants in Canada and Mexico would take over some of the business, he added.In letters to Sweeney and other lawmakers last month, department lawyer James Michael Kelly pointed out that Congress did not prevent other inspections of carcasses and meat that are part of the horse slaughter process.Fee-for-service inspections are currently done for more exotic animals, such as bison, deer, elk, or rabbits.The new fee system will go into effect on March 10, the department's Food Safety and Inspection Service said Tuesday.

Beaver Falls, PA- There are few words in the world to describe the all-time rivalry between the Golden Tornadoes in old gold and white and the Westminster Titans in blue. Geneva sits on the low end of the all-time series against record at 30-33.
The last time the two teams met was on Geneva′s hardwood where Geneva suffered a 53-44 loss. Returning starter, Heidi Mann lead the attack with 17 points while Samantha Fisher, also a returning starter, lead rebounds for the GTs with six. All hands will be on deck as Geneva is still seeking its first home game win of the 2013-14 season. Freshman sensation, Nicole Hyland, will take on Westminster for her first time as a Golden Tornado, entering the game averaging 12.6 points and 8.8 rebounds a game.
The Titans look forward to throwing off the 116-49 loss suffered at home on Wednesday night to Thomas More. Giving something for Geneva to fear, Westminster has found six of its seven wins away (Dominican, Hiram, Pitt-Greensburg, Chatham, Bethany and Thiel). Under the direction of Head coach Rosanne Scott (12th year) the Titans hold a positive rebound margin of +0.9 against opponents while scoring an average of 63.7 points a game. Leading the rebounding game are Titans Hannah Shaffer (8.0 rebounds a game) and Courtney Klein (7.0 rebounds a game). Senior Gabby Holko leads Westminster′s offense scoring and average of 14.0 points a game.
Wednesday Geneva will start off the double-header night against the Washington & Jefferson Presidents at home with tip-off at 5:30 p.m.
Geneva College invites students to accept the challenge of an academically excellent, Christ-centered education. Offering nearly 40 undergraduate majors, Adult Degree Programs with fully online and campus-based options, and seven graduate degrees, Geneva has programs that place students at the forefront of higher learning. Adhering to the inerrancy of Scripture, a Geneva education is grounded in God′s word as well as in a core curriculum designed to prepare students vocationally to think, write and communicate well in today′s world.

I like Jimmy John. I just like to say it. Seriously, say it to yourself over and over. Now think about the SuperBowl commercial where dude licks the Doritos cheese off the fingers of the other dude. Now say over and over Jimmy John, again, but say it faster.
Yeah.... Jimmy John.
The stutterer?

Then he can devolop an awesome stutter step :P
Jimmy J...maybe he'll get the hint.

Well I doubt "Tits or GTFO" will catch on, so I'll vote for "Sammich."
J squared

Zed: You'll dress only in attire specially sanctioned by Raptors special services. You'll conform to the identity we give you, eat where we tell you, live where we tell you. From now on you'll have no identifying marks of any kind. You'll not stand out in any way. Your entire image is crafted to leave no lasting memory with anyone you encounter. You're a rumor, recognizable only as deja vu and dismissed just as quickly. You don't exist; you were never even born. Anonymity is your name. Silence your native tongue. You're no longer part of the System. You're above the System. Over it. Beyond it. We're "them." We're "they." We are the Toronto Raptors.
Secondly, undrafted players MUST be included in the available pool. The word undrafted is getting you mixed up. You must focus on the word available. The original point was that an NBA calibre player (similar to JJs level) would not be AVAILABLE at the Miamis pick. Surely, everybody understands that an undrafted player was available to any GM who was smart enough to recognize the talent level and project into the future in the NBA. That's the whole essence of drafting. So the total pool MUST also include undrafted.
But honestly Apollo, I dont get where youre coming from. You applaud Joey for his solid statistical breakdown and scold me for not backing up my general statements. Yet, when the thorough statistical analysis is now made, it is shown that Joey is off by a factor of 10 in estimating the number of NBA caliber players available at the draft position. Why arent you applauding the new data and admitting the old was shoddy? Instead you call the real data tricks. Why? The data is the data.
The original statement was by BC that a player of James Johnsons talent level will not be available by Miamis pick. Ive shown that EVERY year there is on average 10+ draftable players available who will make solid contributions in the NBA. At this point, its not even debatable. The data speaks for itself. BC is wrong.
I really like James Johnson, but he isnt a home run either. More like a single + a stolen base, IMO.
What, no "Karate Kid"?
I applaud the effort but I still disagree with your argument. Which is fine. I'm allowed.
Really, anything other than Kid Dynamite will be alright with me. But I would suggest "The Slap Chop"
