Comment on Aya Hirano Reborn – On Rolling Stone's Cover by HouseLife:
@ Anon 0:57
What people seem to actually be sick of is the way the industry works, and that Aya is working within that framework even after having violated the doll-like image the industry tries to maintain for morons. People are just angry at the house of cards tumbling down, and that she is still 'alive' amidst the ruins, and don't understand why.
You complain about her getting attention. If you've ever lived a life where you're being scrutinized by people, you would have a clue in the world that that is not 'attention' that any sane human being wants. It's thrust upon you, especially when there is nowhere that you can escape it.
You complain about her twitters being for attention… but have you had a tumor before? I have… you kind of want to talk to someone about it if there's even a suspicion. And if a taxi driver kidnaps you? Yeah, I'd imagine that'd be an ordeal for a celebrity woman. If you believe she lied about it, that's another issue entirely, but I have no real reason to assume she did.
If she is lonely enough that the only people she felt she could express how scared she was was to her twitter followers, she gets my sympathy. If you can say something like 'she should get some friends' then you know nothing about what friends can become when you gain celebrity. Your life changes, as does your relationship to them. It takes very, very strong bonds to survive that. Rock stars, actors, and various A and B-list celebrities haven't ended up in rehab or killing themselves because it's just the 'way it is.' Do you have any idea how lonely it is to be surrounded by people who love you, but know absolutely nothing about you, nor really care?
That is why people will still talk about her reasonably. They have perspective. She did roles that we love, made music we enjoyed, and we're not liking her to spite the people who don't like her, regardless of what those morons think.

The issue with open world is they significantly diminish any real plot or character development. Open world adds nothing to gameplay in and of itself if you have an area large enough to work with. The ideal is what best older RPGs managed to achieve which was the illusion of open-world with an actual relatively linear guidance.
- Top 10 Anticipated Summer Anime According to Kadokawa:
I laughed reeeeally hard at the picture for Battery being a guy holding up his fist. Not sure if that was intentional, but if it was, thank you. It was appreciated.
- Action Pose Artbook "Sketch Half-Naked Men!":
These books aren't for anatomy, more like dynamism and posing reference. If anything it helps with muscle shapes rather than proportion. As always the issue with still images is they flatten the three-dimensionality. If anything it's beyond worth it for the suits and folds. A youtube video or movie will have motion blur so it too works overall for poses, but in terms of dynamic folds being caught in a still, these are far superior. It all depends on how they're used really.
- Action Pose Artbook "Sketch Half-Naked Men!":
No 'still' about it, only an idiot would consider this just 'drawing half naked men.' This book looks absolutely amazing. To be able to catch that much dynamism in motion in still real life pictures is absolutely a feat worthy of praise. I am definitely buying this, I'm already inspired to draw from some of these poses right now.
Even better, if you care enough to have an opinion, then anyone who has the desire to type an opinion yet defines their position by context-less acronyms is worthless to listen to. The counter to the regulation argument is the industry regulations would have to accommodate the rather ridiculous type of JAV that exist so they can continue to explore without becoming too constrictive on 'creativity' as long as the actors/actresses are considered properly. This I find difficult to point to the JAV …

Source: U.S Energy Information Administration, based on Federal Energy Regulatory CommissionThe first export shipment of liquefied natural gas (LNG) produced in the Lower 48 states on February 24 is a milestone reflecting a decade of natural gas production growth that has put the United States in a new position in worldwide energy trade.With the rapid growth of supply from shale gas resources over the past decade, U.S. natural gas production has grown each year since 2006. The resulting decline in domestic natural gas prices has led to rising natural gas exports, both via pipeline to Mexico and, since last week, to overseas markets via LNG tankers.The United States is currently a net importer of natural gas, and gross imports represented nearly 10% of total supply in 2015, based on data through November. The United States imported 7.5 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of natural gas, mostly from Canada by pipeline, and exported 4.8 Bcf/d, mostly to Mexico by pipeline. For years, Alaska has exported LNG, mostly to Pacific Rim countries, but these volumes have been small. In addition to the Sabine Pass terminal that was the source of last week's LNG shipment, four other LNG export terminals are currently under construction.When natural gas is cooled to -260 degrees Fahrenheit, it becomes a liquid that is 1/600th of its gaseous volume, making it easier to transport via vessel. The U.S. Gulf Coast has a large existing pipeline network, which makes the area attractive for developing export terminals. Many of the LNG export terminals now under construction or proposed are at sites that have functioned, and may continue to function, as LNG import terminals. Several LNG import terminals were built in the 1970s, and a new wave of terminals was constructed in the mid- to late-2000s. As domestic production increased, LNG imports declined, as many new terminals were barely used and the utilization rates of older terminals declined.The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is responsible for authorizing siting and construction of LNG export terminals (as well as import terminals) that are onshore or that are close to the shore. FERC prepares environmental impact statements to assess the environmental consequences of the terminals under its jurisdiction. Although most of the LNG terminals fall under FERC jurisdiction, the U.S. Maritime Administration regulates deepwater terminals. Only one deepwater export terminal has been proposed, and if approved, it would be located about 50 miles south of the Texas-Louisiana border in the Gulf of Mexico. In addition to approval for construction from FERC or the Maritime Administration, the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy issues separate authorizations to export to countries based on whether they have a free trade agreement with the United States.Cheniere Energy's Sabine Pass Liquefaction Project in Sabine Pass, Louisiana, consists of six different liquefaction units, or trains, the first of which began service in February after many delays. The other trains are in various stages of development and permitting. Total permitted capacity by FERC is 4.16 Bcf/d.Four LNG export terminals are currently under construction:
Another terminal, Southern Union's Lake Charles (Louisiana) LNG facility, has been approved by FERC but is not yet under construction. Lake Charles also has an LNG import terminal. Several more LNG export terminals, mostly on the Gulf Coast, have been proposed or have pending applications with FERC.Source: U.S Energy Information Administration, based on Federal Energy Regulatory CommissionThe new terminals are expected to take advantage of natural gas produced in the Appalachian Basin, particularly the Marcellus and Utica regions, the source of much of the nation's production growth over the past several years. The Sabine Pass Liquefaction project has secured 300 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of natural gas from the Texas Gas Transmission Ohio-Louisiana Access Project, which facilitates additional flows of Marcellus and Utica natural gas to the southern United States. Additionally, Cheniere's Corpus Christi Liquefaction project will receive 385 MMcf/d from the Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America's Gulf Coast mainline pipeline system. Dominion's Cove Point (which began operating as an import terminal in 1978) already has a dedicated pipeline with a link to three interstate pipelines that operate in the Marcellus area.Market conditions have changed since many LNG export projects in the United States were initially proposed. Proposed LNG terminals in the United States face not only increased competition from other domestic and foreign terminals that have been completed, but they also face uncertainty in global LNG demand. Australia, already a major LNG exporter, plans to expand its LNG export capacity in the coming years. In late 2015, two terminals began service in Australia, Gladstone LNG and Australia Pacific LNG, both located on Australia's East Coast. At the same time, LNG imports by countries in Asia declined slightly in 2015.Principal contributor: John Krohn, Nicholas Skarzynski, Katie Teller

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/091,779, filed Jul. 6, 1998.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to devices for dispensing adhesively backed labels. Specifically, the invention is a label gun for applying labels to curved or irregular surfaces.
2. Description of Related Art
Several different inventors have developed various improvements to label guns. Such improvements include means for ensuring that the label gun properly dispenses labels of varying lengths, means for printing information on a label as it is dispensed, means for protecting a label gun from damage if dropped, and means for applying labels to angled surfaces. To the current inventor's knowledge, no one has developed a label gun suitable for applying labels to curved surfaces, around corners, or on other irregular surfaces. Additionally, many other label guns are significantly more complex—and consequently expensive to produce —than the current invention.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,440,123, issued to Paul H. Hamisch, Sr. on Apr. 22, 1969, describes one example of a label gun which dispenses labels having a glassine paper backing strip. The labeler has a printing head comprising a series of bands which can be rotated to change the character being printed in a given location. The labeler is operated by squeezing a movable handle towards a fixed handle, which moves a drive wheel lined with a material having a high coefficient of friction. The labeler includes a series of fingers biased to drop into notches on the backing, taking the drive wheel out of contact with the label strip.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,111,735, issued to Paul H. Hamisch, Jr. on Sep. 5, 1978, describes a labeler having an applicator which deflects when the labeler is dropped on the applicator, preventing damage to the labeler.
Paul H. Hamisch, Jr. attempted to improve the ability of label guns to apply labels to angled surfaces, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,116,746, issued on Sep. 26, 1978. This labeler has an applicator roll providing for both rolling and canting movement so that it will conform to the surface to which the label is applied. Unlike the current invention, it can not accommodate irregular or curved surfaces.
Other inventors also attempted to provide label guns allowing for different size labels. U.S. Pat. No. 4,985,110, issued to Werner Becker on Jan. 15, 1991, describes a labeler having a printing mechanism. The labeler can accommodate labels of different sizes by varying the diameter of the pinion engaging the transport roll, or by an adjustable lug on the operating handle. U.S. Pat. No. 4,986,874, issued to Toshikaru Kawada on Jan. 22, 1991, describes a labeler having a feeler and lever stop to allow for different length labels. When the feeler pushes up against the forward edge of a label, the lever stop tilts. Both designs are significantly more complicated and expensive than the operational design used in the current invention.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,013,390, issued to Klaus-Dieter Hermann on May 7, 1991, describes a labeler having a tape brake pressing against the tape when the operating lever is in its rest position, releasing the tape as the operating lever is released. The same invention appears to be described in international application WO 88/07960, filed by the same inventor, and published on Oct. 20, 1988.
U.K. Pat. App. No. 2,008,070, published on May 31, 1979, describes a labeler having a printer which is slightly rockable to improve contact with the label, and which completely separates the label from the backing before applying the label to the desired surface, preventing pulling on the backing.
Related international patents include Japanese Pat. No. 4632984, published in Sep. 1971, German Pat. No. 2,123,598, published on Nov. 16, 1972, and German Pat. No. 2,512,471, published on Sep. 30, 1976.
None of the above patents describes a label gun having the simplicity of the current invention, or the ability of the current invention to apply labels to irregular or curved surfaces.
None of the above inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the instant invention as claimed.
The current invention is a label gun with a far simpler actuation means than any other label gun known to the inventor, and which is capable of applying labels of varying lengths to curved or irregular surfaces. The invention includes a label storage area, a dispenser, a plurality of flexible fingers next to the dispenser, a slidable front handle and fixed rear handle.
The labels for the current invention are stored inside the housing on top of the label gun. The housing has a clear top to allow the user to view the labels as they are dispensed, ensuring that the user can dispense the proper length of label. The labels are preferably stored in a roll. The side walls of the housing may include a rod or shaft passing through the center of the roll, and attached to one side wall for centering the roll of labels. Alternatively, a pair of convex bubbles opposite each other may be used.
The dispensing unit comprises a rounded surface at the front end of the label gun having a small radius. A typical sheet of backing paper is flexible enough to travel around the small radius, but a typical label is too rigid to do so. The label will therefore separate from the backing paper when the backing paper is pulled around the small radius dispenser. The label can then be pressed against the desired surface using the plurality of flexible fingers located adjacent to the dispenser.
The backing paper continues back through the label gun, passing adjacent to the tops of the front and rear handles. The rear handle's location is fixed. The front handle is slidably movable along the length of the bottom of the label gun's housing, and is biased towards the forward position. The top of the front handle is elongated and flat. The rear portion of this flat surface is preferably elevated and preferably has a high coefficient of friction. When the front handle is pulled rearward, this rear surface engages the backing paper, pulling the labels to the dispenser. When the trigger slides forward, the front portion of the top surface engages the backing paper. The front surface is slightly lower than the rear surface, and does not have a coefficient of friction sufficiently high to move the backing paper.
Ideally, a foam rubber member will press against the backing paper with sufficient force to prevent undesired movement of the backing paper, but insufficient force to overcome the rearward movement caused by pulling the front handle.
If the means of biasing the front handle in the forward position is a spring, a threaded rod can be used to vary the compression of the spring, thereby limiting the front handle's distance of possible movement to the length of the labels currently being used. Alternatively, if the top of the housing is transparent, the user can watch the labels being dispensed, thereby pulling the front handle only the appropriate distance to dispense a label.
Accordingly, it is a principal object of the invention to provide a label gun capable of applying labels to curved and irregular surfaces, by applying pressure over the entire surface of a label engaging such a surface.
It is another object of the invention to provide a label gun capable of applying labels of varying sizes.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a label gun with a significantly simpler and more inexpensive operating mechanism than other currently existing label guns.
It is an object of the invention to provide improved elements and arrangements thereof in an apparatus for the purposes described which is inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing its intended purposes.
These and other objects of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
FIG. 1 is a environmental, partial perspective view of a label gun according to the present invention being used to apply a label to a curved surface.
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a label gun according to the current invention, showing the label compartment's cover open for adding labels.

FIG. 7 is a top perspective view of a label gun according to the present invention.
Similar reference characters denote corresponding features consistently throughout the attached drawings.
The present invention is an improved label gun for dispensing labels having an elongated, flexible backing. Referring to FIGS. 2-3, the label gun 10 comprises a housing 12, a dispenser 14, a plurality of elongated, flexible fingers 16 adjacent to said dispenser, a slidably movable front handle 18, a fixed rear handle 20, and a longitudinal guide channel 22.
The housing includes a label storage area 24 at the top rearmost portion having two substantially parallel sides 89,90 and a top 26. The top 26 of this label storage area 24 is transparent. The label storage area must include a means for accessing the storage area. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the label storage area 24 can be accessed by removing a side door 80 within side 89. The side door 80 may be secured in place using any of several means which are well known to those skilled in the art, with a preferred and suggested means being friction between its side edges 82 and the side edges 84 of the access opening 86. The door 80 may preferably be removed by grasping it through finger holes 88. With the door 80 removed, a roll of labels 38 may be placed inside the storage area 24. Preferably, the storage area will include means for holding a roll of labels 38. A preferred and suggested means is a horizontal shaft 36 within storage area 24. The horizontal shaft 36 is secured to the side 90 opposite opening 86 (FIG. 5).
Alternatively, the label storage area 24 can be accessed by rotating the housing top 30 rearward on hinge 32, as shown in FIG. 6. Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, the means for holding the roll of labels 38 within the label storage area 24 may include a pair of convex bubbles 34 for centering a roll of labels 38 within the storage area. Although some means for holding the roll of labels 38 within the storage area 24 is part of the preferred embodiments, the label gun will function without convex bubbles 34 or shaft 36.
Located in front of the storage area 24 is feed path 40, along which labels 42, on backing paper 44, are pulled towards dispenser 14. Dispenser 14 is a rounded surface at the front of the label gun, having a small radius. A plurality of elongated, flexible fingers 16 is located directly above dispenser 14.
The bottom of housing 12 includes rear handle 20, and longitudinal guide channel 22. The longitudinal guide channel 22 has a front end 21 and a rear end 23, with the rear end 23 being adjacent to rear handle 20. The front handle 18 comprises trigger 58 and a flat, elongated top portion 62, which is best shown in FIG. 4. The top portion 62 of front handle 18 is dimensioned and configured to reciprocate within longitudinal guide channel 22 between a first position at the longitudinal guide channel's front end, and a rear position adjacent to the rear handle 20. Referring back to FIG. 3, the rear surface portion 64 of top surface 62 is slightly elevated, and has a high coefficient of friction. This high coefficient of friction can be achieved by attaching sand paper or rubber to surface 64, or by roughening surface 64. The front surface portion 66 of top surface 62 is slightly lower than rear surface portion 64, and has a low coefficient of friction. Curved surface 62 and backing paper 44 are contained within longitudinal guide channel 22, with trigger 58 extending below the housing 12.
The label gun 10 includes a means for biasing the front handle 18 in its forward position. Preferred and suggested means include a spring 52, located within a spring guide channel 54, parallel to longitudinal guide channel 22. FIG. 4 shows an alternative means of biasing front handle 56 in the forward position. Resilient band 90 is attached to front handle 18 and housing 12, performing the same function as spring 68 in the above-described embodiment.
A backing retainer 70 made from a resilient material such as foam rubber is located in longitudinal guide channel 22, in front of front handle 18. Backing retainer 70 presses backing paper 44 against top 72 of longitudinal guide channel 22. Used backing paper 44 exits the label gun behind rear handle 50.
Referring to FIGS. 2, 3, and 6, the roll of labels 38 is placed in the label gun 10 by removing the side door 80, or by rotating the housing top 30 rearward on hinge 32. The roll of labels 38 is placed on shaft 36, or between convex bubbles 34. Labels 42 and backing paper 44 are then passed through the feed path 40. Backing paper 44 is passed around dispenser 14 and through longitudinal guide channel 52.
Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, label gun 10 is used by holding rear handle 50, positioning label gun 10 adjacent to the object to be labeled 74, and pulling front handle 18 rearward from its front position to its rear position. Pulling front handle 18 rearward brings the elevated rear surface portion 64 upward into contact with backing 44, allowing handle 56 to pull backing 44 rearward. Backing 44 pulls labels 42 and additional backing 44 through feed path 40, and around dispenser 14. Backing 44 is flexible enough to bend around the small diameter of dispenser 14, but labels 42 do not, in part due to the releasable interaction of the adhesive surface of the labels and its release liner backing. Labels 42 therefore separate from backing 44 overcoming adhesion forces between the backing and the label. Fingers 16 are pressed against the label, which is in turn pressed against the object to be labeled 74, causing it to adhere to the desired surface. As the front handle is released, it is biased forward by spring 52. The rear surface portion 64 is now moved away from backing 44, and the front surface portion 66 is moved towards the backing 44. However, because front surface portion 66 is slightly lowered with respect to rear surface portion 64, front surface portion 66 does not make contact with the backing 44, preventing the front handle 18 from pushing the backing 44 forward.
Object 74 in FIG. 1 is a cup having a rounded, tapered surface. A flat roller as is typically used on label guns would be unable to press the label 42 against cup 74. However, fingers 16, each of which can bend individually to the necessary degree, apply pressure over entirety of label 42, causing it to adhere to many curved or irregular surfaces.
The user can determine how far to pull front handle 56 by watching the labels through transparent top 26. Alternatively, threaded rod 76 may be inserted into threaded hole 78, which is coaxial with spring guide channel 54. Tightening threaded rod 76 compresses spring 52, limiting the distance the front handle 56 can travel to the length of a label.
It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the sole embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims.

Reni Maitua's immediate future at Parramatta remains uncertain with Eels coach Ricky Stuart not guaranteeing his return next weekend.
After being told on Wednesday he's free to find another NRL club despite having another year to run on his contract, Maitua pulled out of Friday night's clash with the Sydney Roosters.
Parramatta fought back valiantly to within two points of the lead with 10 minutes left but conceded two late tries to lose 38-24.
Hooker Matt Keating, back-rower Matt Ryan, five-eighth Luke Kelly and utility Pat O'Hanlon faced the Roosters after being among the 11 players told they're not wanted next season.
But a stung Maitua chose to sit out following a chat with Stuart following a "deep conversation".
While Stuart expects Maitua to return to training, he conceded the back-rower is not certain to come back into the squad for next Saturday's clash with his former club Cronulla if he's not in the right frame of mind.
"At this stage, I can't see why not (he'll play)," said Stuart.
"I'll sit down and have a chat with him and see where he's at.
"It's no good playing if you don't have your heart in it. And Reni is an honest guy - he'll let me know where he's at and how he's feeling."
Maitua turns 31 next week and is faced with the decision whether to put his hand up to battle the Sharks, where in 2009 he tested positive for a prohibited substance and was banned for two years.
Stuart said he felt for the players affected by the massive clean-out but difficult calls to improve the side's fortunes were part and parcel of being a first-grade coach.
Eels prop Tim Mannah was proud of his players' efforts against the Roosters after a difficult 48 hours.
But he also conceded that a bit of pain to try to create a winning culture was necessary at the Eels, last year's wooden spooners who will go bottom if Wests Tigers beat Penrith on Sunday.
"It's obviously a tough thing to go through but I thought they handled it very well and put in a great performance," said Mannah.
"The process is always tough but the end result is a place we want to all be as players."

The Weekender: Kickstart your sordid affair with the weekend with our weekly supplement
If Monday afternoons are the squashed spam sandwiches that your mum tucks into your lunchbox and that you physically retch while trying to swallow, then Friday afternoons are the fish and chips that you will continue to eat until the whole damn bag is empty, and you won't stop short of licking the greasy paper from. (Still with me?)
Here, then, I present you with the salt, vinegar and squeezey ketchup to season your Friday afternoon, in the form of the Weekender. It contains priests lost in a lingerie department, a fake orgasm, a reminiscence over Bottom and Christina Aguilera (like anything could ever contain Christina Aguilera.) Read it and lick your vinegar-shrivelled fingers folks.
Stuff you have to read this week
– FINALLY someone has chosen Christina Aguilera's Dirrty as their Favourite Music Video. Thank you Toby Dye.
– We launched a new feature this week called Behind The Scenes, it's pretty self-explanatory. here's Michael Renaud talking about the new issue of Pitchfork magazine and Mark Porter telling us how he redesigned a Dutch news channel.
– This week's podcast was an absolute banger, we discussed the Daniel Weil show at the Design Museum, hiding "friends" on Twitter, and The Wind Rises.
– Our Opinion piece this week asks if it's wrong to cast good-looking people in deliberately ordinary roles. Thanks everyone for your input!
– Unsurprisingly fantastic Bookshelf this week from Ti Pi Tin book shop owner, Katya Chernova.
– And we get a super-fun mix from music-loving New York design studio, Mogollon.
Tweet of the Week

The Weekender
Rob Alderson –
I know that some people are already bored of hearing about the World Cup which doesn't start for another few weeks, but those people are wrong. This week the slogans that will adorn each country's bus in Brazil were revealed, chosen by way of a public vote. Over on his blog Nick Asbury has reviewed all 32 with typical wit and they range from the quite good to the toe-curlingly awful. "Socceroos: Hopping Our Way Into History" – you're better than that Australia. But I'm a big fan of "Chi Chi Chi! Le Le Le! Go Chile!" and South Koreas's endearingly cheerful "Enjoy it, Reds!" which sounds like the kind of thing my mum used to shout from the touchline.
Liv Siddall –
I'm really into Bottom at the moment. If you haven't seen it, it's a grimy, low budget sitcom from the early 90s that sees two sad, middle-aged men called Richie and Eddie live together in Hammersmith wishing they had more sex, money and friends. I used to watch it when I was little and I was scared it would have dated loads, but it hasn't. As well as being a welcoming bolt-hole from all the high budget, poor comedy on a lot of other sitcoms at the moment, Bottom also reminded me of that golden era in the 90s where Britain was at the height of its comedy prowess. Where's all the British comedy such as Ab Fab, The Young Ones, French and Saunders or Fawlty Towers nowadays?
Maisie Skidmore –
When Harry Met Sally is the film that everyday tells you you're going to love, immediately making you determined to hate it, but then you watch it and find yourself completely glued to it anyway because, yeah, it's incredible – I mean, it's already 25 years old and it's still regarded as an absolute masterpiece in romcom filmmaking. The 80s bouffant hairdos, the plaid shirts, the unadulterated sarcastic humour. This is the best scene from the whole film.
Lisa Farrell –
For this instalment of the Weekender, I give you Irish priests lost in a lingerie department.
Madeleine Morley –
I love this illustration of literary heroines by Badaude which I stumbled across in Five Dials, and which I've had as my phone background for quite a while because I can't bear the idea of changing it. Lydia Davis and Sheila Heti look ready to stop a big bank heist, and Joan Didion is perched on her chair as if about to take flight before gracefully swooping down to the rescue. It's pretty fantastic, and a perfect depiction of some of my favourite heroines.

When Samantha Byrn signed a letter-of-intent Wednesday to play volleyball North Platte Community College, the St. Pat's senior got the red carpet treatment.
Byrn said it was all a little overwhelming.
"It was really cool that everyone came to support me," she said.
Byrn, a 5-foot-8 outside hitter who played under her mother and coach Shelly, at St. Pat's, will be staying close to home. NPCC volleyball coach Sally Thalken is excited to see Byrn sign because she feels she has the complete package of what Thalkan looks for in a player.
Thalken said that Byrn shows commitment and dedication both on the court and the classroom and she is also a talented athlete. As a player, Byrn is well-rounded and has the ability to play anywhere on the floor.
"Sam is just a versatile player," Thalken said. "We're excited to have her. She could have gone to a lot of other places and she chose to sign with us."
Byrn said the feeling is mutual. She likes the coaches, the team and the school she chose.
"I went to their recruiting days and I fell in love with (NPCC)," said Byrn. "All the girls on the team were welcoming and classy. I like the school and I've already taken some classes out there. I like the new med center. The coaches (Thalken and Vicki Hopping) are both awesome. They're great coaches and they run a great program."

Home > News > UK innovation needs backing
September 12th, 2007
UK innovation is being hampered by a lack of early financial support, according to startup incubator St John's Innovation Centre.
St John's hosted the Gorillas of Tomorrow conference in Cambridge last week, which showcased a variety of research developments from three-dimensional modelling to nanotech-enabled next-generation printers.
But insufficient seed funding is making it harder for high-tech developments to make the leap from the drawing board to the market.
Venture capitalists are increasingly reluctant to put money into high-risk fledgling projects, said St John's head of business support Peter Hornby.
