Collins proud despite defeat
Neil Collins paid tribute to the players of South Manchester Sports Club 2nd and Manchester Maccabi 3rd after they marked the 30th anniversary of his mother's death with a real cup thriller.
Both sets of players observed a minute silence in honour of former MJSL league secretary, Joan Collins, before playing out a cup classic in the Harold Feldman Trophy.
And despite watching his side squander a two-goal lead to lose 4-2 in extra-time, South boss Collins believes his mother would have been delighted by such a contest.
"My mother would have been proud that 30 years after her passing, two sides which had formed the backbone of the league's success, could put on such a display," he said.
"The League had requested a minute silence in her recognition and it was superbly upheld by both sides.
"It signalled a fantastic match, almost in her honour you could say.
"But we're mega disappointed because it was ours for the taking. You have to take your hat off to Maccabi, because they never gave up."
Jack Lee's penalty and Dan Linton's effort had given South a two-goal advantage with Oli Black and Danny Schweiger also hitting the woodwork.
Maccabi keeper Josh Samberg pulled off three stunning saves to keep his side in the game as South failed to kill off the tie.
And Collins' men were made to pay for their wastefulness as they collapsed to a dramatic defeat.
"I think the moment which changed the whole course of the game was the injury to Danny Schweiger," he added.
"He had been peerless at the back with Darren Brewer but he went down in agony with a back spasm.
"It has been a long recurring problem, which has restricted his games to singles rather than any run of games and it was his first start in months.
"After he was replaced with Jack Rowe in the centre, the team totally lost its shape."

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Change of Heart Pit Bull Rescue, Norco, CA, USA
What I love most about Sarah and Change of Heart Pit Bull Rescue is not only their love and caring of the dogs, but that they keep in touch after the adoption. Help and support is just a phone call away, helping the Pitties and their adoptive families get their "happily every after." I first contacted COHPBR to adopt, but after going through the process and seeing how much they are doing and how much they could use volunteers, I knew I wanted to help! I love knowing that I have helped this wonderful group and the pups they rescue. Thanks Sarah for bringing our sweet Pandora into our lives!

Docket No. AB-290 (Sub No. 331X)
Norfolk Southern Railway Company — Abandonment Exemption—
in Henry and Spalding Counties, Ga.
On December 6, 2011, Norfolk Southern Railway Company (NSR) filed a verified notice of exemption under petition under 49 U.S.C § 10502 seeking exemption from the provisions of 49 U.S.C. § 10903 to permit it to abandon approximately 4.92 miles of rail line between milepost 4.80 M (south of Meredith Park Drive near the line's crossing of Indian Creek in McDonough) and milepost 9.72 M (east of Trestle Road in Locust Grove), in Henry and Spalding Counties, GA (Line).[1] A map depicting the Line in relationship to the area served is attached to this Environmental Assessment (EA).
According to NSR, the Line has been out of service for more than 2 years. In fact, a 1.47 mile section of the Line located between milepost 8.25M and the end of the Line at milepost 9.72M was mistakenly salvaged in 2002 by NSR, the result of a miscommunication between the real estate department and the salvage contractor. Therefore, if approved, no salvage would take place along this section of the Line. NSR states that there is no alternative to abandonment other than for it to retain the track in place.
The topography surrounding the Line is generally level, passing through suburban residential areas. The width of the right-of-way is approximately 100 feet wide and traverses United States Postal Service Zip Codes 30223, 30228, 30248, and 30253.
The Line contains a single structure, a trestle bridge that is 50 years old or older. According to NSR, the trestle bridge was constructed in 1943 and is of typical railroad design. Should the Board approve this abandonment, NSR plans to salvage the trestle bridge and the remaining 3.45 miles of track not salvaged in 2002. NSR would either reuse or sell as scrap the salvaged materials from the Line.
NSR states that Line does not contain federally granted rights-of-way. Because NSR does not hold fee title to most of the right-of-way, it does not believe that the right-of-way would be suitable for public use. However, NSR has no opinion on whether or not the right-of-way would be suitable for other public purposes.
NSR submitted an Environmental Report that concludes that the quality of the human environment will not be affected significantly as a result of the abandonment or any post-abandonment activities, including salvage and disposition of the right-of-way. NSR served the Environmental Report on a number of appropriate federal, state, and local agencies as required by the Board's environmental rules (49 C.F.R. § 1105.7(b)).[2] The Board's Office of Environmental Analysis has reviewed and investigated the record in this proceeding.
Diversion of Traffic
As noted above, the Line has been out of service for several years. Consequently, no rail-to-truck diversions would occur. Therefore, OEA believes that there would be no impact on existing regional or local transportation systems or patterns. Furthermore, because no rail traffic has moved over the Line in more than 2 years there would be no effect on the movement and/or recovery of energy resources, recyclable commodities or change in overall energy efficiency.
Salvage Activities
If the Board should approve the proposed abandonment, NSR would salvage the remaining 3.45 miles of track, ties and other track materials. NSR states that salvage would occur as follows:
All remaining track structures would be removed from the existing railbed. The contours of the existing railbed along with all existing drainage systems would remain intact. Once the track structures have been removed, the contractor would smooth the railbed. No ballast would be removed nor would any digging or burying of any kind would be permitted. All steel track materials would be reused or sold as scrap, while crossties would be reused or disposed of in accordance with applicable federal and state laws and regulations.
The Spalding County Community Development Department finds no inconsistencies as the proposed abandonment relates to its local land use policies. Spalding County also notes that the tracts of land in question are under private ownership.
The Henry County Department of Planning & Zoning indicates that that the proposed abandonment of the Line could be advantageous to the County is the Line were developed into a Rail-to-Trails Project. The County notes because the Line is not located in an industrial areas, it appears that the proposed abandonment would not pose economic hardship on the County. Furthermore, the proposed abandonment is consistent with Spalding County's Rails-to-Trails Program.
According to NSR, it does not hold fee title to the entire right-of-way and therefore does not have a contiguous corridor available for public use. However, NSR states that it would be willing to negotiate with interested parties for alternative public use.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service states that prime or important farm lands are located in in the area of the proposed abandonment. However, because NSR states that it would not engage in any additional land disturbance beyond the salvage activities discussed above, the proposed abandonment is exempt from the Farmland Protect Policy Act guidelines.
The Georgia Department of Natural Resources (GDNR) states that the abandonment, as proposed, would be consistent with the State's water quality standards. GDNR also concurs that a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit would not be required. Likewise, the U.S. Department of Army, Corps of Engineers, Savannah District, states that because no fill would be placed in any jurisdictional waters of the United States, that no Department of Army Permit would be required under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.
The Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Coastal Resources Division, states that proposed abandonment would not likely result in any impacts on coastal counties. Therefore, the Georgia Coastal Management Program concurs with NSR's Federal Consistency Determination of No Effects.
According to NSR, it does not believe that any federally listed endangered species or their habitats would be adversely affected by the proposed abandonment. Furthermore, NSR notes that the Line does not pass through any state parks or forests, national parks or forests, or wildlife sanctuaries.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, West Georgia Ecological Services Office, concurs in that it has no concerns related to threatened and endangered species.
NSR states that there are no known hazardous waste sites or sites where known hazardous material spills have occurred on or along the right-of-way.
In an email dated November 18, 2011, the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Geodetic Survey (NGS) states that there are approximately 7 geodetic survey markers located in the area of the proposed abandonment. OEA will recommend that NSR consult with the NGS prior to the commencement of any salvage activities to allow for relocation of any affected survey markers.
Based on all information available to date, and if the Board imposes the recommended mitigation, OEA does not believe that salvage activities would cause significant environmental impacts.
In its Historic Report, NSR states that the right-of-way is approximately 100 feet wide and includes a single trestle bridge that is 50 years old or older. According to NSR, the trestle bridge was constructed in 1943 and is of standard railroad design. NSR also states that it believes that there are no archeological resources or historic properties on or immediately adjacent to the Line.
The Georgia Midland Railway (GMR) was founded in 1896 to take over the failed Georgia Midland and Gulf Railroad, which operated approximately 100 miles of railroad from McDonough, GA, to Columbus, GA. Within a year, the GMR was leased to Southern Railway Company (SRC), for 99 years and 3 months. Norfolk Southern Corporation acquired control of SRC and the Norfolk and Western on June 1, 1982. In December 1990, SRC changed its name to NSR. Of particular note, President Franklin D. Roosevelt used this rail line (which was then owned by the Southern Railway) on his trips to the 'Little White House' in Warm Springs, GA.
NSR served the Historic Report as required by the Board's environmental rules (49 C.F.R. § 1105.8(a)) and served the report on the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Historic Preservation Division (SHPO) pursuant to 49 C.F.R. § 1105.8(c).[3] The SHPO, in a letter dated November 29, 2011, states that the proposed abandonment would have no adverse effect on historic resources provided that the trestle bridge, which is a contributing resource to the railroad, is not removed. In response to the SHPO's letter, NSR, in a letter dated December 20, 2011, clarified its intent that it would remove the trestle bridge as part of the proposed abandonment. Accordingly, we are recommending a condition requiring the NSR to retain its interests in and take no steps to alter the historic integrity of the trestle bridge which may be eligible for listing or listed in the National Register of Historic Places until completion of the Section 106 process. Guidance regarding the Board's historic preservation review process is available on the Board's website at http://www.stb.dot.gov/stb/environment/preservation.html.
We recommend that the following conditions be imposed on any decision granting abandonment authority:
1. Norfolk Southern Railway Company shall consult with the National Geodetic Survey at least 90 days prior to the beginning of salvage activities that will disturb or destroy any geodetic station markers.
2. Norfolk Southern Railway Company (NSR) shall retain their interest in and take no steps to alter the historic integrity of trestle bridge located at milepost 4.90M that may be eligible for listing or listed in the National Register of Historic Places until the Section 106 process of the National Historic Preservation Act, 16 U.S.C. § 470f, has been completed. NSR shall report back to the Office of Environmental Analysis (OEA) regarding any consultations with the SHPO and the public. NSR may not file its consummation notice or initiate any salvage activities related to trestle bridge (including removal of tracks and ties from the trestle bridge) until the Section 106 process has been completed and the Board has removed this condition.
Based on the information provided from all sources to date, OEA concludes that, as currently proposed, and if the recommended conditions are imposed, that abandonment of the line will not significantly affect the quality of the human environment. Therefore, the environmental impact statement process is unnecessary.
Alternatives to the proposed abandonment would include denial (and therefore no change in operations), discontinuance of service without abandonment, and continued operation by another operator. In any of these cases, the existing quality of the human environment and energy consumption should not be affected.
Following abandonment and salvage of the rail line, the right-of-way may be suitable for other public use. A request containing the requisite 4-part showing for imposition of a public use condition (49 C.F.R. § 1152.28) must be filed with the Board and served on the railroad within the time specified in the Federal Register notice.
A request for a notice of interim trail use (NITU) is due to the Board, with a copy to the railroad, within 10 days of publication of the notice of exemption in the Federal Register. Nevertheless, the Board will accept late-filed requests as long as it retains jurisdiction to do so in a particular case. This request must comply with the Board's rules for use of rights-of-way as trails (49 C.F.R. § 1152.29).
The Board's Office of Public Assistance, Governmental Affairs, and Compliance responds to questions regarding interim trail use, public use, and other reuse alternatives. You may contact this office directly at (202) 245-0238, or mail inquiries to Surface Transportation Board, Office of Public Assistance, Governmental Affairs, and Compliance, Washington, DC 20423.
If you wish to file comments regarding this Environmental Assessment, send original and 2 copies to Surface Transportation Board, Case Control Unit, Washington, DC 20423, to the attention of Troy Brady, who prepared this Environmental Assessment. Environmental comments may also be filed electronically on the Board's website, www.stb.dot.gov, by clicking on the "E-FILING" link. Please refer to Docket No. AB 290 (Sub No. 331X) in all correspondence, including e-filings, addressed to the Board. If you have any questions regarding this Environmental Assessment, please contact Troy Brady, the environmental contact for this case, by phone at (202) 245-0301, fax at (202) 245-0454, or e-mail at email@example.com.
Date made available to the public: January 13, 2012.
Comment due date: January 30, 2012.
By the Board, Victoria Rutson, Director, Office of Environmental Analysis.
[1] OEA notes that NSR incorrectly listed the length of the rail line to be abandoned as 4.72 miles in its Environmental Report. The correct length of the rail line to be abandoned is 4.92 miles as noted in NSR's Notice of Exemption and in its Historic Report.

aac exhibition
AAC Art Venture Spring-Summer-Fall 2013
GREEN ACRES at AAC is a multi-seasonal, multi-faceted, interactive art venture focused on art and agriculture that comprises several elements: the Gourd Palace Spirit House; the GREEN ACRES exhibition, with Arlington Site Projects; and a series of public programs. It will incorporate broad community involvement across the county and the region. The goal of the venture is to visually and spatially engage the public in a discussion around topics related to food, agriculture, urban farming and livability, and to expose the investigations artists are making in these areas.
The Harrison Studios' indoor farm; Anya Gallaccio's Motherlode; Mei-ling Hom's mushroom work;
photo from Dan Devine's Sheep Farm series; the XYZ Spaceframe Vehicle from N55; algae farming;
Shannon Young's shopping cart; Soil Olympics from Permaganic Co.
AAC's venture takes its name from the exhibition GREEN ACRES: Artists Farming Fields, Greenhouses, and Abandoned Lots, curated by Sue Spaid. Following its run at the Cincinnati Contemporary Art Center, GREEN ACRES will come to the Washington DC area: to AAC in June and to American University Museum at the Katzen Arts Center in September. Developed by independent curator Sue Spaid, the exhibition explores a global art movement that has been developing over the past 40 years, wherein artists have developed and realized novel farming practices to inspire self-reliance, improve food quality, demonstrate sustainable farming techniques, engender community actions, and foster local identities.
AAC will include the historically significant refabrication of Newton and Helen Harrison's Survival Series (1970—1973), projects from Permaganic Co., as well as the work of artists J. J. McCracken, Mei-ling Hom, Anya Gallaccio, Dan Devine, Mara Scrupe, Patricia Johanson, Matthew Moore, Ecological Greenhouse, the Land Foundation, and Sakarin Krue-On.
This exhibition is made possible by an Emily Hall Tremaine Exhibition Award. The Exhibition Award program was founded in 1998 to honor Emily Hall Tremaine. It rewards innovation and experimentation among curators by supporting thematic exhibitions that challenge audiences and expand the boundaries of contemporary art.
Doug Retzler: The Gourd Palace Spirit House at AAC
The Arlington Arts Center, in collaboration with Arlington Public Art, is hosting Baltimore-based artist Doug Retzler for a public art residency focusing on urban agriculture. Retzler will oversee the construction of the Gourd Palace Spirit House, which will grow and develop over the summer on AAC's front lawn. The artist creates living sculptures that illustrate our connection to nature and the important place that nature has in the lives of children and adults alike, particularly in an urban environment. The AAC site will become a community meeting place, where reading sessions, workshops on agriculture and environmental stewardship, music performances, and art-making projects for children and families can take place.
The underlying structure of the Gourd Palace Spirit House is a bamboo armature; the bamboo comes from Arlington's Banneker Park, thanks to Sarah Archer, Invasive Plant Coordinator of Parks and Natural Resources. After constructing the armature in May, the next step is planting its perimeter with gourd seedlings. As the seedling grow, they produce vines, which must be trained to grow on the armature, covering the whole structure to create a leafy green shelter.
This spring Doug Retzler went to two Arlington schools—HB Woodlawn Secondary Program and Tuckahoe Elementary—to show slides of habitations in other countries made from natural materials, including bamboo, and to explain some of the challenges inherent in building a large living shelter. Students first made sketches of their ideas and then built models, using pipe cleaners and foam core. Their preliminary sketches and many of the models are on view in AAC's Jenkins Community Gallery. A design team assessed these ideas with Doug and assisted in coming up with the final Arlington Arts Center Gourd Palace design. Design team members: Alyson Steele, Quinn Evans architecture; Kimberly Haun, Arlington County horticulturist; Suzanne DeSaix, GREEN ACRES farmer/artist. We are very grateful to Faylinda Kodis, art teacher at HB Woodlawn, the fourth grade teachers at Tuckahoe, and Nancy Libson who organized the Tuckahoe event. Children in AAC's Spring Break classes also submitted sketches and models. We thank all the students who participated with such enthusiasm.

Susan Leibovitz Steinman: The Straw Bale Farm
Artist Susan Steinman has designed a public sculptural installation to be planted with organic vegetables using Permaculture techniques. Four Arlington community volunteer gardeners will maintain the gardens throughout the summer and donate part of their produce to the local food bank. The installation is sited on the west side of AAC, with a view of the Gourd Palace to the north. Steinman's unusual media include straw bales, metal trash cans, PEX pipe, mulch, and concrete blocks.
Shannon Young: How Does Your Garden Grow?
Young's outdoor art installation incorporates shopping carts as transportable gardens. After their installation on AAC's front lawn opposite the Gourd Palace Spirit House, the carts will be wheeled to other Arlington sites during the summer.

"My son has been going to Kids Korner since he was bout 8 months old (now 5) and he truly loves all the teachers he has had throughout his years at the Center. They are well qualified, genuine and care so much about the children. I am grateful for the love they show my son – it gives me such peace-of-mind when I have to head off to work – thank you so much for that."
"My oldest son has been attending Kids Korner since he was 15 months old, and my youngest since he was an infant. Over the years I have watched them both flourish intellectually, emotionally, and physically. I am filled with pride when they demonstrate to me the latest in their cognitive development….. Pointing out the newest letter, color, animal, or dance move that they learned with their friends."
"I have been bringing my son to Kids Korner since he was 6 months old. I was extremely nervous and had many questions in the beginning. Between Lynn and Nettie, all of my questions were completely explained and my nervousness was put to ease. I never could have imagined how wonderful all of his teachers would be."
"Leaving your child in someone else's care is one of the hardest things I think a parent will ever make. However, once you get to know the teachers at Kids Korner, it will be so much easier. They don't just babysit your children; they invest their hearts in your children. They care about them…"
"I have had two children attend the preschool program at Kids Korner. I am very impressed with the facility, its teachers and administrators, its educational curriculum, the outside playground area and its meal plans. I had researched a lot of preschools and found Kids Korner to offer the most and is the best value."
"As a first time parent I had my reservations about putting my daughter in a day care center. After my first visit to Kids Korner my worries had disappeared. My daughter was 6 months when she was enrolled (now 3) and I could not be happier with the level of care she receives while my husband and I are at work."
Gathering information is an important part of choosing childcare for your family. We are here to help. Learn why so many families have chosen to trust in the caring staff of Kids Korner.

Pregame: LeBron James Not Surprised By Derrick Williams' Skills
Mark Remme
Wolves Editor/Writer
Email / Twitter
Heat forward LeBron James turns 27 years old today, a youthful age for a player now in his ninth year in the league.
Tonight at Target Center, he'll share the court with 20-year-old Derrick Williams, the Wolves highly touted rookie forward who in his third NBA game will get a chance to play against one of his childhood idols.
But what Williams might not know is that James has had his eye on him through the years, too. Now, the two get a chance to share the same floor.
"It's very humbling, man. I think he's a great young player," James said of Williams' admiration. "I watched him in college, watched him in high school as well. Best of luck to them—they've got a good one in him."
James got a chance to see Williams play at his youth camp years ago, and he said he remembers Williams' athletic ability back then.
"You always remember those guys that are just head over heels (above the rest) as far as ability and jumping ability," he said.
It will be a memorable night for Williams, who said he has family and friends on hand at Target Center for Minnesota's 7 p.m. showdown with the Heat. He said his group is on hand to see him play, but they're also excited to see the talent on the other team—James and fellow All-Star Dwyane Wade.
"Tonight will be a little bit more special," Williams said.
The University of Arizona product, taken second overall in June's draft, has a similar build to James. His 6-foot-8, 241-pound frame mirrors James (6-8, 250), and at the forward position Williams has already shown the ability to grab entire an entire arena's attention. He electrified the Target Center crowd during Monday's game against the Thunder with his high-flying, fast-break dunks. In two games this year he's averaging 8 points and 5.5 rebounds per game.
James and Wade, who long ago established themselves as elite players in the league, are averaging 32.7 and 20.0 points per game, respectively, for the 3-0 Heat this season.
Williams admits it's different watching his idols these days. Instead of watching James and Wade for fun, this week it was part of a scouting report.
"That's the crazy part," Williams said. "You're watching them, and then all of a sudden you're in the film room, seeing their moves, what they do best, if they go right or left. Just the little things like that. That's the crazy part about it."
It will be Williams and the rest of the Wolves' job to find a way to contain both James and Wade come game time, but until then both sides are showing their admiration for one another's game.
"He's a good young player," Wade said. "He's very bright, and I appreciate that."

Richmond, Surrey
I was in Bantry recently and after buying a CD of songs on the 90th anniversary of the Easter Rising went to visit an old family friend on the Sheep's Head peninsula where my mother's family, devout Catholics and republicans, had farmed. While chatting about the past, she mentioned the Black and Tans. To my surprise - and dismay - she said how her mother had told her how polite they were - knocking at doors, never asking for food. Quite unlike the IRA, who would demand rations, leaving children hungry. She said her father, who sometimes went out with them, was quite ashamed of their behaviour. As Peter Hart's The IRA and its Enemies - Violence and Community in Cork 1916-1923 shows, nothing is ever black and white.

A version of Robert Dwyer Joyce's rebel song can be found on the Dubliners Thirty Years A-Greying. Joyce (1830-1883), a professor of English at what was to become University College Dublin, was forced to seek asylum in the US. More recently, Ciaran Carson has used the Barley line as the title of a sonnet in his remarkable meditation on the role of violence in Irish history, The Twelfth of Never.

Off the pitch it is evident that Liverpool target Fabio Borini is still a very young man. Reserved and softly spoken, his mannerisms regularly betray him revealing a nervous edge. Looking away as he answers his questions, his personal life guarded with ferociousness.
Fab deal: Liverpool agree £12m fee with Roma for Fabio Borini
On the field however, we see the other side of the hungry striker. "I like his anger," Carlo Ancelotti grinned as he described the young Italian he used to manage at Chelsea. "His meanness, and his desire to always be the first on the ball."
As a player, Borini is the poster child for dedication and commitment. For him, football is simply not a game to enjoy but rather a profession to master. It is this precise determination to succeed that has seen Borini establish himself both at club and international level. Perhaps the precise reason why, as a youngster, he often deliberated over his decision to be a footballer. How much will he have to sacrifice to be the very best?
Born into a family of athletes, Borini knew he had to be a sportsman. His father Roberto ran the 400 metres races at an amateur level, his sister Gloria was a long jumper whilst his mother Cynthia regularly partook in marathons. Sport was the answer and Fabio entered the world of football becoming a youth product of Bologna, the football club he and his family supported.
Determined but rarely spectacular, Borini always played alongside someone who appeared to be better than him. Yet despite his relative mediocrity, it was difficult to ignore his predatory nature and his instinct for goal. So much so that Chelsea came knocking.
Leaving his country and his family behind, Borini came to England and the sacrifices for his profession had begun. He often spoke of loneliness, of the difficulty in settling into a country he felt to be so different to his own but gradually he began to enjoy it. He took up cooking lessons, trained heavily and quickly became the first choice striker for the Chelsea reserve team before scoring 10 goals in 11 games the next year to finish as top scorer.
Borini's eye for a goal and his great finishing demanded attention. "At Chelsea, Ancelotti defined me as a nuisance like [Filippo] Inzaghi," he recalls. Displaying the same hunger for goal and the same lethality in the box, Borini was a little Inzaghi but to describe his as just a goal scorer is simply an injustice.
Tactically flexible, the ex-Chelsea player can play any position in attack, on the left, through the middle or on the right. He can play as the centre forward or as a second striker as he can exploit his pace and willingness to uncover space when deployed in a more withdrawn role. Additionally, his sacrificial nature sees him eager to provide for the side when out of possession whilst statistically, he produced more tackles than any other attacking player for Roma last season.
His overall game combined with his intensity intrigued Ancelotti, who offered him the chance to form part of Chelsea's Champions League squad. The Italian Coach always smiled when he recalled the boy, explaining to la Gazzetta dello Sport how the 17-year-old ordered his teammates to turn off the stereo that was pumping rap music, as it always did before every game. "I need silence to concentrate!"
It's perhaps interesting to note than when asked what was the most important lesson he learned as a young footballer, Borini replied: "In the locker room, the newcomer should always be quiet. In the beginning I used to just say what I thought."
The striker was loaned out to Swansea where he scored six goals in 12 matches, Parma than decided to bring Borini back to Italy in the summer of 2011 before loaning him out to Roma, who had just embarked on a new project with Luis Enrique at the helm.
Under the Spaniard, Borini developed his game even further and, despite fierce competition from Roma's vast array of attacking talent, the young striker grabbed the many chances he was offered to exhibit his talent. His undeniable technique, his work off the ball and his pressing game proved invaluable for Roma and his devastating performances against Claudio Ranieri's Inter side and Palermo allowed his team to accumulate much needed points at a time in which they were fighting for a spot in Europe.
So what can he bring to Brendan Rodgers' Liverpool side? Fiercely competitive and eager to impose himself, Borini is curiously calm under pressure and hardly ever intimidated regardless of the amount of stars he has played alongside. Aware of his quality, his insatiable right foot and the ability to score goals, he finished last season as Roma's second highest goal-scorer.
Despite his many qualities, though, Borini is very much a boy whose talents require refinement. The easiest Roma player to be dispossessed, he struggles for control at times and his natural inclination to always play the ball to feet makes has seen him fail in his attempts to provide crosses to the middle. Curiously Liverpool were statistically the most successful side in the Premier League last season in terms of crossing ability but Rodgers' Swansea side were one of the poorest.
What Liverpool can expect, should they manage to complete the deal, is a team player and a model professional. Borini may be reserved off the pitch and uninterested in joining his teammates on nights out but on the pitch, he will do all he can to provide them with what they need to drive their team forward.

A new national study has found modest declines in obesity among 2- to 4-year-olds from poor families, a dip that researchers say may indicate that the obesity epidemic has passed its peak among this group.
The study, by researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, drew on the height and weight measurements of 27 million children who were part of the federal Women, Infants and Children program, which provides food subsidies to low-income mothers and their children up to age 5.
The study was based on data from 30 states and the District of Columbia and covered the years from 1998 to 2010. The share of children who were obese declined to 14.9 percent in 2010, down from 15.2 percent in 2003, after rising from 1998 to 2003. Extreme obesity also declined, dropping to 2.07 percent in 2010 from 2.22 percent in 2003. The study was published Tuesday in The Journal of the American Medical Association.
"The declines we're presenting here are pretty modest, but it is a change in direction," said Heidi Blanck, one of the study's authors and the acting director of the Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity and Obesity at the disease centers.
The findings were another sign that one of the nation's seemingly intractable health problems may be reversing course, at least among children. Single interventions like school exercise programs have not worked, and public health experts now say that only a broad set of policy measures has a chance of success.
Over the past year, several major cities, including Los Angeles, New York and Philadelphia, have reported obesity declines among some parts of their student populations.
The new study was one of the first to document a national decline in obesity among young children from low-income families. Researchers say that is particularly meaningful in a population that is disproportionately at risk. Twenty percent of poor children are obese, compared with about 12 percent of children from more affluent families, according to the centers.
It is unclear what drove the decline, but Blanck offered hypotheses. Breast-feeding, which often leads to healthier weight gain for young children, has increased since 2000. The percentage of 6-month-olds still being breast-fed increased to 47.7 percent among children born in 2009, up from 34.2 percent among children born in 2000.
Breast-feeding of infants from low-income families has risen over the years. In 1980, only 28 percent of infants from those families had ever been breast-fed, compared with 66 percent in 2011.
Blanck also pointed to changes in the environment, like those documented in a report about food and marketing practices released by the Federal Trade Commission on Friday.
The agency found that the amount of money spent on food marketing to children declined by nearly 20 percent from 2006 to 2009, with the biggest drop in television advertising. The total spent on food advertising to youths in 2009 was $1.79 billion, the report said.

Anna Bay-Morna Point Swell Statistics, Agosto: All Swell – Any Wind
This chart illustrates the range of swells directed at Anna Bay-Morna Point through an average August and is based upon 2480 NWW3 model predictions since 2006 (values every 3 hours). The wave model does not forecast wind and surf right at the coast so we have chosen the optimum grid node based on what we know about Anna Bay-Morna Point. In the case of Anna Bay-Morna Point, the best grid node is 25 km away (16 miles).
The rose diagram shows the distribution of swell sizes and swell direction, while the graph at the bottom shows the same thing without direction information. Five colours show increasing wave sizes. The smallest swells, less than 0.5m (1.5 feet), high are coloured blue. These happened only 42% of the time. Green and yellow show increasing swell sizes and red illustrates largest swells greater than >3m (>10ft). In either graph, the area of any colour is proportional to how frequently that size swell was forecast.
The diagram suggests that the dominant swell direction, shown by the largest spokes, was ESE, whereas the the most common wind blows from the W. Because the wave model grid is out to sea, sometimes a strong offshore wind blows largest waves away from Anna Bay-Morna Point and offshore. We lump these in with the no surf category of the bar chart. To simplify things we don't show these in the rose diagram. Because wind determines whether or not waves are surfable at Anna Bay-Morna Point, you can load a different image that shows only the swells that were forecast to coincide with glassy or offshore wind conditions. In a typical August, swells large enough to cause good for surfing waves at Anna Bay-Morna Point run for about 34% of the time.
IMPORTANT: Beta version feature! Swell heights are open water values from NWW3. There is no attempt to model near-shore effects. Coastal wave heights will generally be less, especially if the break does not have unobstructed exposure to the open ocean.

When is the best time to fly to Missoula?
High season in the state of Montana is during the summer months of June till August, as this is the best time to enjoy the wonderful outdoor activities for which this part of the US is famous. Travelling during the hot summer months is likely to be more expensive than off peak seasons, though. Beat the crowds by visiting a little earlier than other people, in May or June, though, and you can take advantage of cheaper travel and still experience some beautiful sunshine. Winters in this region tend to be snowy, but visit during the Christmas period to soak up the festive mood.
Missoula overview
Set amid lush hills and valleys, and majestic mountains too, Missoula also has a wealth of cultural attractions for visitors to explore. Keen hikers and mountain bikers will love the Rattlesnake National Recreation Area, which has plenty of hiking and biking trails to keep you busy in some gorgeous scenery. Visit the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation to learn about the natural and cultural history of this famous antlered resident of the Montana area: this child-friendly museum is a great place to spend an afternoon. The Missoula Art Museum is filled with beautiful art works both old and new, and you can top your day off with a picnic by the babbling waters in Caras Park. If you are seeking more things to do with a young family, then be sure to head down to the Carousel, and to the Dragon Hollow Play Area. Fort Missoula Museum will delight all enthusiasts of history, and military history in particular, as it will tell you all about the city's role as one of the earliest military outposts in the US. In the evening, why not catch a play or a concert in the Wilma Theatre, or check out some of the great bars and restaurants on offer in the town centre?

MARK AUSTIN THOMAS: The auto industry expects slumping sales figures for December, but Marketplace's Sam Eaton reports one company should buck that trend.
SAM EATON: You can blame the economy, the housing slump or higher gas prices for the projected six percent drop in U.S. auto sales this month.
But there's one glaring problem with that says Edmunds analyst Jesse Toprak: Toyota. He says the Japanese automaker will likely see a seven percent jump in sales, replacing Ford as the U.S.'s No. 2 automaker.
JESSE TOPRAK: It seems like nothing can stop Toyota this year. They seem to have the right product mix, right image, right momentum in the marketplace.
In contrast, Ford sales are likely to sink nearly 20 percent over last December. Ford has been especially hard hit by declining truck sales.
Of the big three, GM is expected to fare best. The world's largest automaker is projected to post only a five percent drop in sales.
In Los Angeles, I'm Sam Eaton for Marketplace.

Sound familiar? This is what New York Times best-selling author Gay Hendricks calls the Upper Limit Problem, a negative emotional reaction that occurs when anything positive enters our lives. The Upper Limit Problem not only prevents happiness, but it actually stops us from achieving our goals. It is the ultimate life roadblock.
In The Big Leap, Hendricks reveals a simple yet comprehensive program for overcoming this barrier to happiness and fulfillment, presented in a way that engages both the mind and heart. Working closely with more than 1,000 extraordinary achievers in business and the arts, from rock stars to Fortune 500 executives, whose stories are featured in these pages, the book describes the four hidden fears that are at the root of the Upper Limit Problem.
The Big Leap delivers a proven method for first identifying which of these four fears prevents us from reaching our personal upper limit, and then breaking through that limitation to achieve what Hendricks refers to as our Zone of Genius. Hendricks provides a clear path for achieving our true potential and attaining not only financial success but also success in love and life.

"Inspiring, useful, a little preachy but VERY good"
Thought-provoking, inspiring, a little preachy but otherwise VERY good...
I agree with other reviews that this book starts off feeling a little anthonyrobbinesque (yes I did just make that word up haha) - but I was intrigued to see where it went, and how it developed.
I found it extremely useful more as a springboard for exploring my own situation and my own limits. I am somewhat skeptical by nature, and so took the book as I do any self-help resource - with a good grain of salt and an open mind.
I would say that anyone expecting a manual for success will probably be somewhat disappointed - but anyone with the courage to look inside themselves and honestly ask what holds them back from happiness and success will find the book inspiring and thought provoking.
No book holds "the answers" in itself, but I think this book could help people to begin really *looking* for the answers.
I'm listening to this for the 2nd time, and am buying a copy for a friend. I think that speaks as loud as any long-winded review, hm? ;)
"Changes my life"
This book has changed my life. The way I live think act respond. The hours that were once days are now minutes as I embrace Einstein Time. The concepts I share with those around me. I bet I've accidentally sold dozens of copies of this book just by how much I tell others about its influence. I've listened to it 10 times now and am making my Big Leap into the life I've always meant to create.
"On my third listen"
It might take me years to implement all the wisdom in this book, but thanks to this book, I will take a lighthearted, 'hmm' approach to the learning. I was so ready for this. Between Don Miguel Luiz, Gary Zukav, Chopra, Byron Katie and now Hendricks...life is amazing and ever more amazing all the time.
Inspirational, uplifting, transformative... how can I add stars?
"Breaking Your Personal Glass Ceiling"
This book is really eye opening. Does this sound like you – You have success and things are going very well. Then something goes wrong and you end up back where you were. Has that happened in your career, with your finances or your relationships? If you said yes, The Big Leap is for you. It is about how to recognize your upper limit behavior and break through you self imposed glass ceiling.
"Okay, but it's still lacking"
The beginning is powerful, but then the book turns dull and inconsistent. It tries to be inclusive to many things, but lost my attention -and my interest- in the process.
"Chock full of important concepts"
The Big Leap is full of wisdom and practical, applicable steps. I appreciate the depth of this book-it reflects a profound knowledge in psychology, relationship, spirituality and human potential. This is the real deal. I have at least 3 big new concepts from this book that I'm certain will be pivotal to my life. Thank you, Gay Hendricks.
The audio is read by the author, but don't be wary potential buyers. I often am disappointed with author-read material because they often don't have the "polish" of the professional readers. But Gay Hendricks' reading is an easy listen. The audio has the feeling of a caring friend/coach/ therapist imparting material they truly care about. Really, I can't say enough about this book. Get it.
"Game Changer"
This book was recommended to me by a friend and boy am I glad that I listen to her. This book is a game changer. Within the first five minutes I knew I was in the right place. Halfway through the book, things started shifting in my life. I'm so thankful for it.
"This really gets you thinking... life-changing!!"
I'm in the process of reinventing myself in my 50's having become a Life Coach a little over a year ago. I'm always looking to up-level myself and most books can be helpful but I find often times it's something I've heard before or maybe just didn't resonate with me. Well, this book is different... I immediately hit replay after I'd finished it because there's so much GOLD in it that I knew I had to listen again to absorb more of the incredible insights it offers. Gay has a great way of putting things... his playfulness and witty choice of words makes it fun to listen to and his passion makes you want what he's got. Love this book!!!
"Best self-help book ever"
I've read or listened to this book more than a dozen times over the years and every time it surprises me with some new nuggets of wisdom that are highly relevant to my life at that moment in time. I have recommended it more times than I can count and I have bought copies and given them as gifts many many times. It is my personal life bible. Thank you Gay.
"Great explanation!"
This is a great book if your struggling with personal barriers and glass ceilings... Gives excellent advise! Well read and easy to follow!
"The Big Leap - let it change the way you think!"
The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks is by far the best personal development book I've ever read (or even better, listened to!).
Gay makes everything very clear, and gives easy steps to take in order to improve your mindset, which in turns allows you to make positive changes.
The audiobook format is excellent, as it's so easy to focus on what's being said when you're listening, rather than being distracted whilst reading. I'm listening to it for the second time already!
I've recommended this to a dozen of my friends.
"Medicine for the nerves"
Speaks of intangible but real stuff that calms nerves . Greatly worth the time invested.
"Insights into why we undershoot our potential"
I read this in paperback last year and really enjoyed it, yet as with many personal development products/services, I felt I needed more to get the key learning points really down pat. This recording just does that for me.
If you haven't read the book, this audio version can definitely stand alone and is a really good listen.
Great that the author is doing the reading, and he does it very well, with humour, gentleness and wisdom, in a style that's easy to listen to. Gay provides really practical insights into why so many of us undershoot our potential, often unwittingly, and have hidden 'upper limits' that we don't even realise are holding us back.
For me it reprised some real 'aha' moments, and reminded me of important things I'd forgotten once the book was back on the shelf. That's one of the reasons I like audiobooks: somehow it's easier to listen to them over and over and dip back in when I feel the need.
"Awesome...MUST LISTEN"
One of THE best books I've listened to. Great narrating, inspiring stories and brilliant life facts to put into practise. Thank you!
"Just what I've been looking for"
Hendricks put into words a phenomenon I had experienced throughout my adult life that I have never been able to describe until now. There are plenty of self development books that will tell you what steps to follow to be successful, but this is the only one I have found that teaches you how to overcome your aversion to taking those steps in the first place. Brilliantly written and wonderfully narrated.
"This Book is Changing The Way I Behave"
Learn about your upper limits and why you always seem to sabotage getting ahead. Find out what your genius level is and how to start operating on it.
I found myself nodding vigorously as Gay Hendricks described scenario after scenario of sabotaging behaviour. I could definitely relate.
This book is a must for everyone!
"Take the leap!"
Loved it, thought provoking and inspiring. Especially helpful for a trainee counsellor to hear his stories
"Interesting & thought provoking"
This was recommended to me and I'm very happy to recommend it too. An easy listen - I like Gay's delivery - and with really interesting content and lots of helpful examples illustrating key points.
The Upper Limit concept is clearly defined and is one that will stick in my mind! Thank you.
"Don't hesitate get it now!"
Amazingly insightful book, jammed full of foundational content. Self awareness is the key to a happy and successful business and life, making the activities and lessons shared in this book essential learning and implementation. Thanks Gay Hendricks this is going to be a compulsory read for all my clients!
"short and to the point"
love it and plain from again as so many good ideas, think this will be added to my list to keep

Just tried this restaurant and was pleased to have a delicious salad included with the $29.99 lobster entree. Might have been a tad overcooked but was worthy of ordering again at a future visit. They even serve it "lazy man's" style.
Can anyone suggest any similar offers in Western Ma.?

Western Oncolytics Ltd., a biotech company in Cleveland that is developing an immuno-oncolytic therapy licensed from the University of Pittsburgh to treat a range of cancers without harsh side effects, said it has closed $275,000 in seed funding.
The proceeds "are planned to set a path toward clinical trials and execute initial manufacturing for its novel virus-based cancer therapy, which delivers genes to guide the immune system to kill cancer cells," Western Oncolytics said in a news release.
"We are thrilled by the commitment from our investors to support our efforts and advance this novel therapy," said Kurt Rote, the company's founder and CEO, in the release. The company did not identify the investors.
"For years there has been a lot of wishing for better cancer treatment, and we are now finally approaching this aim with such immunotherapies," Rote said. "This seed funding will allow us to continue our work to defeat a variety of cancers in a wide range of patients without the harsh side effects common to current treatments."
He said Western Oncolytics' virus-based therapy "begins replicating as soon as it comes into contact with a cancerous cell or tumor allowing it to propagate at the site of the tumor." The therapy also expresses added genes that send signals to the immune system to tell the body to build an immunity against the cancer cells, according to Rote
Stephen Thorne, Ph.D., a professor at the University of Pittsburgh and inventor of Western Oncolytics' technology, said in the release that the goal of the immuno-oncolytic therapy "is to have the virus to fight the disease directly while training the patient's own immune system to clear cancerous cells. By doing so, we can target tumors throughout the body, with minimal side effects, and in combination with other therapies."
