Photo: A 60-hour wait for OSU-Michigan
This is what two die-hards look like. Ohio State freshman Marcus Otte, left, and fellow student Johnny Theuring set up camp outside Value City Arena around 1 a.m. yesterday, about 60 hours before Sunday's 1:30 p.m. tipoff between No. 15 Ohio State and No. 2 Michigan. Student seating is first-come, first-served, so Otte, a 19-year-old from Mason, Ohio, and Theuring, a 20-year-old from Maineville, Ohio, figure to have a good view of the game — once they're done waiting through two days of rain.

On the Farm
2nd Grade Oral Language Resources
Content Objectives
Children will:
• Learn about the concept of farms.• Access prior knowledge and build background about different kinds of plants and animals on a farm.
• Explore and apply the concept of the different ways people use different kinds of plants and animals from a farm.
Language Objectives
Children will:
• Demonstrate an understanding of the concept of farms.• Orally use words that describe ways that we can learn about different kinds of plants and animals on a farm.
• Extend oral vocabulary by speaking about where different foods come from on a farm.
• Use key concept words [corn, vegetables, cows, milking, planting, harvesting].
• Use the slideshow to review the key concept words.• Explain that children are going to learn about:
• What a farm is.
• What plants grow on a farm.
• What animals live on a farm.
• How we use plants and animals from a farm.
• After the host introduces the slideshow, point to the photo on screen. Ask children: What do you see in this photo? (field, soil, farmer, tractor). What is the farmer in the photo doing? (riding a tractor).• Ask children: What is your favorite food that might come from a farm? (answers will vary).
• Say: There are many animals that live on a farm. Some animals that might live on a farm are chickens, cows, pigs, and horses. What do these animals need to be happy and healthy? (food, water, shelter).
Guided Practice
• Guide children through the next three slides, showing them the different foods from a farm. Always have the children tell if they like that food.Apply
• Have children play the games that follow. Have them discuss with their partner the different topics that appear during the Talk About It feature.• After the first game, ask children to talk about what foods from a farm they have seen in a supermarket and help the children learn more about the farm products they are interested in. After the second game, have them discuss other foods that come from cows, chickens, or a farming field.
• Ask children: If you had a farm, what plants would you grow and what animals would you take care of? Explain.• Summarize that we get many foods from a farm. We drink milk from cows that live on a farm. We eat eggs from chickens that live on a farm. We eat fruits and vegetables that grow on a farm. Encourage children to think about what it's like to work on a farm.

DOE Addresses Privacy for Data Enabled by Smart Grid Technologies: Convenes Multistakeholder Process to develop Voluntary Code of Conduct
Meeting Documents & Draft Principles
Throughout the U.S., intelligence is being added to the grid through the deployment of advanced technologies and grid modernization efforts. This increased intelligence has led to concerns regarding consumer data access and the privacy of consumer energy consumption data. Historically, utilities have taken very seriously the job of protecting customers' privacy, and privacy and security protections will remain fundamental objectives. However, with the new technologies being deployed today, these fundamental protections warrant new attention. Consumers must feel secure that their data will be protected and treated responsibly. Therefore, it is important that stakeholders on all sides of the privacy debate work together to address concerns and coordinate activities.
On January 31, 2012, U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability (DOE OE) hosted the Smart Grid Privacy Workshop to facilitate a dialog among key industry stakeholders. In addition, on February 23, 2012, the White House released the report, Consumer Data Privacy in a Networked World: A Framework for Protecting Privacy and Promoting Innovation in the Global Digital Economy (Privacy Blueprint). The Privacy Blueprint outlines a multistakeholer process for developing legally enforceable voluntary codes of conduct (VCC) to help instill consumer confidence.
In response to workshop findings and in support of the Privacy Blueprint, DOE OE and the Federal Smart Grid Task Force are facilitating a multistakeholder process to develop a Voluntary Code of Conduct (VCC) for utilities and third parties providing consumer energy use services that will addresses privacy related to data enabled by smart grid technologies.
Work Groups
Work Groups have been established to focus on the development of the mission statement and the evaluation of different aspects of the proposed VCC elements. If you are interested in participating in a Work Group or have questions regarding their activities, please contact the appropriate lead directly.

Previous Meetings
Federal Smart Grid Task Force convened the first meeting in the multistakeholder process on February 26, 2013 from 9:30am to 4:30 pm in Washington, DC. Stakeholders engaged in an open, transparent, consensus-driven process to develop the VCC. The objectives of the meeting were to 1) promote discussion among stakeholders regarding a proposed VCC outline, including the types of data to be covered and 2) establish procedural rules for developing the VCC.

Piranha 3D [Blu-Ray]
Director : Alexandre Aja
Screenplay : Pete Goldfinger & Josh Stolberg
MPAA Rating : R
Year of Release : 2010
Stars : Steven R. McQueen (Jake Forester), Jessica Szohr (Kelly), Elisabeth Shue (Julie Forester), Jerry O'Connell (Derrick Jones), Ving Rhames (Deputy Fallon), Adam Scott (Novak), Brooklynn Proulx (Laura Forester), Sage Ryan (Zane Forester), Christopher Lloyd (Mr. Goodman), Kelly Brook (Danni), Riley Steele (Crystal), Richard Dreyfuss (Matt Boyd), Eli Roth (Wet T-Shirt Host)
Alexandre Aja's Piranha 3D is a purposefully and unapologetically tacky monster movie that borrows all the camp and gore from the 1978 Roger Corman-produced Jaws knock-off Piranha, but without screenwriter John Sayles's self-conscious wit and director Joe Dante's satirical style. Oh, there is plenty of self-consciousness and satire here, so much so, in fact, that the movie is in constant danger of parodic overload, beginning with the opening scene in which Richard Dreyfuss humorously recreates his Matt Hooper character from Jaws and is served up as the first helping of human flesh to a ravenous pack of prehistoric piranhas that have been suddenly loosed from a subterranean lake following an earthquake. But, funny and gross and tasteless as it is, it frequently feels like too much, as if Aja is swinging for the fences of cult moviedom at every moment.
Written by Pete Goldfinger and Josh Stolberg (who also penned 2009's Sorority Row remake), Piranha 3D takes place during Spring Break at the fictional Lake Victoria in the Arizona desert, where thousands of scantily clad high school and college revelers gather for a weeklong bacchanal in the hot sun. Unable to partake in the revelry is Jake Forester (Steven R. McQueen, grandson of the great Steve McQueen), a decent-hearted college kid who is stuck at home babysitting his younger siblings (Brooklynn Proulx and Sage Ryan) while his mom (Elisabeth Shue), who happens to be the local sheriff, tries to keep order amid the chaos. Since he is chronically denied Spring Break action, it isn't too hard to blame Jake when he succumbs to temptation and agrees to act as a "location scout" for Derrick Jones (Jerry O'Connell), a sleazy, coked-up porn entrepreneur in the Joe Francis mold who wants to shoot video around the lake for his Wild Wild Girls video series. Derrick is already accompanied by two sultry models (British model and regular "Page Three Girl" Kelly Brook and American porn star Riley Steele), but he also manages to recruit Kelly (Jessica Szohr), Jake's sweet-faced crush.
What we have, then, is a recipe for disaster as the lake is soon teeming with carnivorous fish by the thousands who can't wait to munch on some hot naked bodies. The fact that Aja spends the first half of the movie with his camera drooling over said bodies before turning them into mincemeat is nothing new in the horror genre, but it's done with a mixture of such leering perversity and gleeful sadism that the movie's high-wire balancing act of horror and comedy is frequently in danger of collapsing (as when our attention is purposefully drawn to a well-endowed young woman's assets before revealing that she has been sliced in half by a high-tension cable). Aja pours on the gore as the revelers are literally shredded in the water in an orgy of violence that plays like a nightmare episode of MTV's Spring Break, or perhaps the collective fever dream of all the unattractive geeks and quiet prudes who aren't invited (the amount of blood that is shed in the carnage has to be measured in the thousands of gallons, making one wonder if the oil cleanup technology from the Gulf of Mexico had to be borrowed to clear the water). The comedy of violence here is over the top (especially with the digital stereoscopy thrusting everything in our laps), and the shock value of hot young things reduced to fish food sometimes overshadows the camp silliness of it all, especially because veterans Howard Berger and Greg Nicotero's make-up effects are all too convincing (most of the digital effects, however, are notably shoddy and cartoonish). At other times, though, the film's self-awareness takes over, as when Aja stages a drunk girl vomiting overboard right into our laps, perhaps the most aggressively tongue-in-cheek use of 3-D since Paul Morrissey threw intestines and gall bladders in the audience's face in Flesh for Frankenstein (1973).
Although he doesn't have Morrissey's marriage of artistic rigor and camp sensibility, Aja is hardly a hack director, despite his having settled happily into hack assignments. He first got on the map with his grisly French psycho thriller High Tension (2003) before turning his attention to the remake assembly line, first with Wes Craven's The Hills Have Eyes in 2006 and then Sung-ho Kim's Mirrors in 2008. Piranha 3D's best moments generally involve Aja relying more on suspense than gore, and he gives the film's murky underwater sequences, with their sonic echoing and otherworldly detritus, a genuine sense of the creepy and uncanny. In one of the film's best sequences, a team of underwater geologists led by Adam Scott's Novak descend into the depths to explore the previously hidden prehistoric lake and have the misfortune of meeting its denizens, including the piranha spawn, which live in semi-translucent orbs that float right out in the middle of the audience. He also dials up the tension in the climax, which finds Jake, Kelly, and the kids needing to escape from a sinking yacht by climbing hand over hand along a rope strung to another boat while the piranhas leap and snap beneath them.
Such sequences, however, are the exception to the rule, with the majority of the movie being given over to grisly sight gags like a buxom beauty being devoured, leaving only her silicone implants floating in the water, or Hostel director Eli Roth as a horny wet T-shirt emcee getting splattered between two crashing boats. As with many an '80s slasher movie, there seems to be a direct connection in Piranha 3D between one's sexual licentiousness and the nature of one's demise, which is why it is so unsurprising that O'Connell's leering porn king gets one of the nastiest deaths, with a particular part of his anatomy being singled out for what may very well be one of the most perverse sight gags in horror movie history (ah, how far the MPAA has opened the door for on-screen gore). Aja's ability to assemble a cast of familiar Hollywood faces, including Christopher Lloyd as a tropical fish expert and Ving Rhames as the town deputy, is impressive in its own right, and it gives Piranha 3D an added level of ridiculousness. It helps when you know that everyone is in on the joke.

The high-def 1080p/AVC-encoded transfer of Piranha 3D looks fantastic. It is the very epitome of bright and shiny, with the impossibly blue lake water and sky set off nicely against the rugged earth tones of the surrounding desert. Skin tones, of which there are plenty (natch), look natural even though the overall color scheme is incessantly bright and gaudy, with a plethora of almost hyperreal primary colors (of course, the blood runs bright red). The image is nicely textured and boasts excellent detail, which actually does a disservice to some of the shoddier digital effects, which look more cartoonish than I remember them looking in the theater. To that end, I cannot comment on the effectiveness of the 3D on this disc, so you will have to seek out another source for that information. I can say, however, that the DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1-channel surround track is superb in its aggressiveness, with great surround effects that immerse you in the mayhem. The underwater sequences are particular good, with plenty of ghostly echoes to create a sense of density and depth to the water. | |
Due to the space requirements on the disc, the Blu-Ray 3D sacrifices some of the supplements that are included on the regular Blu-Ray, including deleted scenes with optional commentary, deleted storyboard sequences, a storyboard gallery, and trailers and TV spots. However, there is still room for a fun audio commentary by by director Alexandre Aja and producers Gregory Levasseur and Alix Taylor, who were all recorded together. Given that Aja and Levasseur have worked together on numerous films and have known each other since they were 10, they have a natural, easy-going rapport. It was also nice to have Taylor providing a female perspective to help offset the two Frenchmen, especially Aja, who claims that every grisly death is his "favorite" and suggests a drinking game in which you do a shot every time you see a naked breast (which would probably result in acute alcohol poisoning). Also included on the disc are 10 behind-the-scenes featurettes that run more than two hours in length. Together, these provide a comprehensive documentary about the film's conception, production, and reception, with special emphasis given to the gory make-up special effects. Virtually everyone involved in the film is interviewed at some time or another, although the majority of the face time is given to Aja, Levasseur, Taylor, and producer Mark Canton. |

Audrey Faith Perry was born in Ridgeland, Mississippi in 1967, but grew up a few miles away with her adopted parents in Star, Mississippi. She began singing from an early age, inspired by an Elvis Presley concert she saw on her 9th birthday. Though her singing career began in the choir of local churches, she eventually formed a local country music band that played at fairs and rodeos. After graduating high school, Faith did what most successful country music stars do; she moved to Nashville, Tennessee in hopes of making her big break in the country music capital of the world.
Initially unsuccessful in her search for a recording contract, Faith worked for a time in a T-shirt shop, and eventually found a job doing clerical work at a small record label. At around this time she married Dan Hill, a producer at the firm. One day, a co-worker heard her singing idly while filing papers one day, and convinced Faith to record a demo with the company - a move that revitalized her singing career. She began singing locally again, and was signed to a record deal with Warner Brothers in 1993. Though by now she had divorced Dan Hill, she kept his surname as her stage name. She released her first album with Warner Bros., Take Me As I Am, in 1993. The album featured restrained instrumentation, and instead focused on Hill's rich voice. The beautiful young songstress's voice was clear, alluring, and slightly raspy all at once on her debut album - perfect for singles Wild One and Life's Too Short To Love Like That, both of which deal with the struggles of a teenage girl growing up. Her sophomore record, 1995's It Matters To Me, was even more successful, selling 5x multi-platinum and reaching the 4th spot on the Billboard Top Country Albums index. In 1996, she met country heartthrob Tim McGraw while on tour, and the two married in a matter of weeks. After taking a three-year break from recording, Faith returned to the studio and began to experiment with a more mainstream-pop sound. The formula worked, and her next three albums - Faith, Breathe, and Cry - together sold over 13 million copies worldwide. Though some country purists derided Hill for altering her country sound, she nonetheless retained most of her traditional fan base and became a huge crossover success in mainstream music circles, with chart- topping singles like This Kiss, Breathe, and When The Lights Go Down, all of which charted on the Billboard Top 200. In 2005 Faith reinvented herself yet again by returning to her country roots with her 6th original studio album, Fireflies. Featuring top country singles The Lucky One, Stealing Kisses, and Mississippi Girl, the album reached the coveted #1 spot on both the Billboard 200 and Top Country Albums charts - among only a handful of records to do so. She is still happily married to Tim McGraw, and rumor has it that the duo plan to record an album together by 2009.Audrey Faith Perry was born on September 21, 1967 in Jackson, Mississippi.
Audrey Faith Perry, later known as Faith Hill (born September 21, 1967 in Star, Mississippi), is a successful American country singer, known for her commercial success as well as her much-publicized marriage to country singer Tim McGraw. The tall blonde songstress's self-titled album, 'Faith, ' sold four million copies worldwide. The album featured her hit single 'This Kiss, ' which topped the charts for three straight weeks and became her first crossover success, hitting number five on the pop charts.

Hill has been honored by the Grammy Awards, the Academy of Country Music, the Country Music Association, the American Music Awards and the People's Choice Awards. Her Soul2Soul II Tour 2006 with McGraw became the highest-grossing country tour of all time. In 2001, she was named one of the "30 Most Powerful Women in America" by Ladies Home Journal. In 2008, Hill released her first Christmas album, titled Joy to the World. In 2009 Billboard named her as the No. 1 Adult Contemporary artist of the decade 2000-2009. Hill was ranked the 39th best artist of the 2000-2010 decade by Billboard. Her voice type is a mezzo-soprano.

Comments about REI Sheridan Jacket - Men's:
My husband is tall with big shoulders. XXL was too big in the neck and midsection. Could not go with smaller size as it would be tight in shoulders and too short sleeves.
Best Uses
Comments about REI Sheridan Jacket - Men's:
If you are one of those people who switch between a small and medium size based on brands, this jacket is NOT a good fit because the small is way too small and the medium is way too big. But other than that the jacket itself is great!
Best Uses
Comments about REI Sheridan Jacket - Men's:
True to fit, including arm length that is long enough (I have a 35 inch sleeve). Cuts moderate winds and sheds light rain. I use this backpacking, camping, and around town; I wish it had a bit more fleece to the lining to add about ten more degrees of comfort on the low end of temps. As is, I don't find it warm enough for lounging around camp if the temp is below 40 degrees F, but plenty warm if I am on the move at 40 F. Good pockets, good adjustments for the cuffs and waist. Good jacket for the price.
Best Uses
Comments about REI Sheridan Jacket - Men's:
I love this jacket. Its sleek, comfortable, has nice color and will work as a daily jacket for the office and a technical jacket for weekend trips. I received the North Face Defroster as a gift and though I liked its comfort and design, it didn't pass the work appropriate test (my wife send it looked more like an exercise jacket than work attire). When I returned to the store and tried this jacket on, I was a happy camper.
Al in all, I'm very happy with purchase (price, fit, comfort, design). It was time to retire my bulky fleece for something newer.
Best Uses
Comments about REI Sheridan Jacket - Men's:
I picked up this jacket the last time I strolled through the local REI. I didn't plan on getting anything, but when I saw this jacket on display, I was intrigued. I tried one on, and now I own it. I would NOT have bought this jacket based upon the website pictures. Not that it looks different, it just looks a lot better in real life.
Let me describe my expectations for this jacket, as I think that always effects the rating. At first, the jacket's style was why I tried it on. I was expecting the jacket to be a bit casual, light-weight, water resistant, wind resistant, and stylish. This jacket meets all of my expectations, and a bit more.
First off, the term "soft-shell" can mean something different to everyone. Any avid adventurer knows this… To me, it's a soft jacket used as the top layer which is more breathable then a hard-shell. Basically, a happy middle ground between a fleece jacket and a hard-shell jacket – offering a bit of both worlds. Of course, I do not expect a soft-shell to have all the benefits of a hard-shell.
Based upon what I've seen, there are 2 different kinds of soft-shells: A stretch-woven soft-shell, or one with an outer "membrane". Basically, the stretch-woven material looks more like fabric and doesn't have a rubbery or plastic feel. This jacket is of the stretch-woven type, and therefore is not as water resistant/proof as one with a membrane. Whereas this jacket may not be completely waterproof, it's pretty darn good at beading-up the water (see picture). Water will soak into the jacket if you rub it in, but repels "free" water as described.
The outer fabric texture is really nice and smooth. It doesn't look like it would repel water, but it does. I really like this because I don't like the rubbery or plastic-type outer layer. I've been out in the rain quite a few times, and it's always kept me dry. The inner fabric texture is a waffle-fleece, nice and soft. It's not a thick jacket, and I've been comfortably warm down to about 55 degrees or so.
This is a close fitting jacket at the right size – I could fit into a large, but a medium is nice and snug. I've noticed that the forearms are a bit tight, but I prefer a snugger fit and have larger forearms than most. Just something to keep in mind if you have Popeye arms.
Based upon earlier reviews, I must be reading a different website description or it was changed, because I don't find anything misleading. I mean, just looking the pictures alone, I didn't expect the jacket to have an outer membrane or a hood. The specs for the jacket definitely say it is NOT waterproof, windproof, insulated, and does not have a hood. So that's what I expected. When the description says, "Urban-savvy design" and "ideal for around-town wear", well, I kinda took that to mean it wasn't a back-country hiking jacket. Btw, it is great for around-town wear, and I've received many compliments!
Overall, the jacket is holding up great. I will modify my post accordingly if there are any changes to my opinions after a few more washes and additional use. Even if it does start to lose its water repellency, a quick search shows that you can buy a spray-bottle DWR treatment for under $10 – so you won't be spending a fortune or hours of time. So ask yourself what you really need in a jacket, and make sure to read all of the specs and descriptions so you're buying something that will meet YOUR expectations.

Comments about REI Sheridan Jacket - Men's:
I love this jacket. I first bought another brand and then brought it back and took this one home. Great fit and looks good.
Best Uses
Comments about REI Sheridan Jacket - Men's:
The first reviewer was absolutely right about the jacket not being waterproof. Luckily, I bought it without reading the misleading description on the website. I like it for being warm but not too heavy and for style since the fleece look isn't cutting it for me these days. I'm a thin guy and this jacket has a lot of room underneath for additional warming layers if necessary. If you want something to resist rain, look elsewhere. If you live in a climate that doesn't receive much rain and gets cool on occasion, this jacket might be perfect.
Best Uses
Comments about REI Sheridan Jacket - Men's:
I purchased this jacket with the intent of using as my go-to shell for cold weather hiking, thinking it would shed water and snow for adequate protection against the elements (the bare minimum for the word "shell" used in the description). However, this jacket is a sponge and the lack of a hood insures your head will be soaked. Unless you dump significant dollars and hours into maintaining the DWR on this jacket, it is nothing but a heavy, less-breathable, wind-resistant fleece. Whenever I go hiking, I have to also pack a hard shell just in case I catch some showers. Which begs the question, what is the point of this jacket? There is nothing shell-like about it. It is fine if you buy it with the intent of using at as an insulating layer, but why would anyone want this weight and bulk with an insulating layer? Ask yourself what you really need in a jacket; then ask yourself how this jacket will meet those needs. I bet you'll realize that this jacket is not the right choice. Attached is a photo of what a single second of water exposure will do to this jacket even with renewed DWR. I would give it more stars if it wasn't marketed as a soft-shell, but then I also never would have bought it in the first place.
Service and delivery comments:
REI has been giving me quite a hassle with returning this jacket, claiming that it was never advertised as waterproof and that I am not using it as intended. However, this is marketed as a soft-shell and I believe that REI should be held responsible for meeting shell-like qualities; lest any fleece or down mid-layer be sold as a soft-shell. Considering that I have been a member for a decade and never made a return before, I am surprised that I have been met with such criticism.

News Release
Volleyball Returns Home to Host Albany on Friday, Hartford on Sunday for Senior Day
Head Coach Ian Blanchard |
BALTIMORE � After splitting a pair of America East contests on the road last weekend, the UMBC volleyball team returns to the RAC on Friday to open its final home stand of the season. The Retrievers will host Albany on Friday at 6 p.m. for Hero�s Night, recognizing all those who have made sacrifices for our country, and then welcome Hartford to Baltimore on Sunday for Senior Day.
The Retrievers currently sit in fourth in the America East at 5-4 heading into the second-to-last weekend of the season, holding a half-game lead over Stony Brook (4-4) for the final spot in the conference tournament. Albany currently leads the league with a 7-1 mark while New Hampshire and Binghamton sit two games back with 6-3 records.
Scouting the Retrievers
On the road last Friday, UMBC held off a comeback against Providence, downing the Friars in four sets behind Hannah Schmidt�s (Catonsville, Md./Mount de Sales) tenth double-double of the season. The sophomore led the Retrievers with a match-high 16 kills to go along with 11 digs, but was not alone as junior Emily Vandegrift (Leesburg, Va./Loudoun County) and freshman Krystal Mlemchukwu (Baltimore, Md./Western Tech) chipped in with 13 kills and 11 kills, respectively.
Then on Sunday, the Retrievers fell behind two sets to none at New Hampshire, but responded by winning the next two, forcing a decisive fifth set. In the end though, UNH defeated UMBC for a second time this season in five sets, despite 21 kills from freshman Sherelle Walker (New Freedom, Pa./Susquehannock) and 28 digs by senior Ali Loynachan (Whitby, Ontario/Sinclair).
Walker�s performance on Sunday landed just shy of her career-best 22 kills against UNH earlier in the season, but returned her to the top spot for the Retrievers with 253 put-aways this season. She currently ranks fifth in the league with a .245 hitting percentage and sixth with a 3.12 kills per set average. Schmidt is just one back of her teammate with 252 winners while Mlemchukwu, Loynachan, Vandegrift and junior Emily Witsaman (Media, Ohio/Medina) have all recorded at least 100 kills in 2012.
Loynachan has also been a key factor for the Retrievers on defense since returning to the lineup and is averaging 3.44 digs per set in conference action this season. Her 2.91 average for the season sits at ninth overall in the America East and she trails only junior Ali Goc (Oshawa, Ontario/R.S. McLaughlin) who has a 3.44 average, for the team lead. With 964 digs in her career, Goc is in tenth place all-time in UMBC history.
Scouting the Great Danes
Albany (10-13, 7-1 America East) lost its first conference match of the season in four sets to Stony Brook at home in its only match last weekend. The Great Danes took the opening frame 25-15, but the Seawolves rebounded quickly, winning the next three sets to avenge a four-set loss on Long Island earlier this season.
Despite the loss, Albany can still clinch a spot in the America East Championships with one win in its final four conference games. After taking on UMBC Friday night, the Great Danes travel to Binghamton on Sunday before heading home to face Providence on Nov. 9 and UNH on the road on Nov. 11.
The Great Danes have been paced by great defensive play this season, led by junior Viktoriia Stroilo who leads the conference with a 5.41 digs per set average. Senior Traci Vandegrift has also made a significant contribution and ranks sixth in the league averaging 3.41 digs per set. In addition, Albany sits in second, behind only UMBC, averaging 1.89 blocks per set.
On the attack, Albany�s senior setter Gabby Whitworth has spread out the opportunities with sophomores Sara Pope and Samantha Brostrom receiving the most chances. Pope ranks fifth in the America East with a 3.19 kills per set average, and a team-best 258 winner on the year, while Brostrom is not far behind with a 2.66 average.
All-Time Series vs. Albany
The Great Danes defeated the Retrievers in four sets earlier this year in New York to push their win streak to 13 straight and the all-time lead to 22-2. UMBC last defeated Albany on Oct. 12, 2007 at the RAC Arena in five sets. Since then Albany has won all ten America East meetings while also knocking UMBC out of each of the past three conference tournaments.
In the match earlier this season, Mlemchukwu recorded a career-high 18 kills and Schmidt notched a double-double with 13 kills and ten digs, but it was not enough for the Retrievers to snap the streak. Three Great Danes registered double-digit kills in the match, led by Pope who put away 20 winners.
Scouting the Hawks
Hartford lost its only match of the weekend, a four-set decision to Stony Brook on Senior Day. With the loss, the Hawks dropped to 8-16 overall and 2-6 in conference play and now sit in sixth place in the league standings. Sareeta Nethersole led Hartford with 15 kills and Kami Nethersole chipped in with 13 kills.
After earning a spot on the conference All-Rookie Team last year, sophomore setter Jackie Tamburri has impressed again this year and currently leads the league averaging 9.75 assists per set. Sareeta Nethersole has benefitted the most from her classmate�s success leading Hartford with 336 kills this season while placing sixth in the league with a .240 hitting efficiency.
All-Time Series vs. Hartford
UMBC improved to 19-2 all-time against Hartford after winning in Connecticut in straight sets earlier this season. The Retrievers held a 14-match win streak against the Hawks going into 2011 before the teams split the season series, each winning on its home court.
In Connecticut earlier this year, Schmidt notched a match-high 16 kills and scooped up ten digs as the Retrievers leveled their conference record at 2-2. Hartford�s Sareeta Nethersole was the only other player in the match to record double-digit kills, earning 11 winners.

Multiplatform Package Manager
After seven months of development, the highly portable, distribution independent package manager RPM 5.0.0 has now been released.
The package management system, which was originally developed by Red Hat, has been reworked by a project team in collaboration with OpenPKG starting in spring 2007. The rework involved rewriting or updating major parts of the code. The build environment, which is based on automake, autoconf and libtool was programmed completely from scratch. Support is now available for external links to third party libraries. Support for obsolete RPMRC files has been dropped; the configuration now uses RPM throughout.
The RPM code can now be compiled with almost any C complier, including GNU GCC, Sun Studio, and Intel C/C++ on most major platforms, such as BSD, Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X and Windows/Cygwin. Besides LZMA compression RPM now also supports the XML archive file format (XAR). Support for the older RPMv3 format has been dropped due to code cleanups and simplification. The software will still support RPMv4 type packages.
New features for package specifications have been added (spec files) including new tags and sections. All changes and new features are described in the official announcement.
The RPM command line tool was developed by Erik Troan and Marc Ewing in 1997 as the "Red Hat Package Manager" and later renamed to "RPM Package Manager". The package manager was adopted later by other distributions and platforms such as Suse, Mandriva and AIX with ongoing development by the community. It remains to be seen whether RPM 5.0 will succeed. Neither Red Hat nor Novell support the project. Instead, they have their own versions of the package manager. The source code for RPM 5.0 is available from the project website.

I bought this jacket and pants for a hunting trip where the temp went from 20Degrees to 75 degrees and sunny cloudy windy to rainy wet damp. This jacket held up all around. When the temperature dropped I used it under the browning 4 in 1 parka to get to the stand. When it rained I was bone dry and held up perfect!

America's Action Territory encourages familial bonding through amusements in session year-round indoors and seasonally outdoors. During warm weather, the park staff operates six outdoor activities, from bumper boats in a 75,000-gallon pool to paintball on a 20,000-square-foot inflatable field. Back inside, kids can enter the smoky, black-lit laser-tag arena to demonstrate who is most deserving of parents' love, or challenge their progenitors to skee-ball at the arcade. Between games, an eatery supplies patrons with refreshments such as sandwiches, chicken strips, and pizzas on crust made without gluten or lasers. It also offers a wine and beer list for adults, as well as free WiFi. For special occasions, Action Territory's team can also arrange birthday parties and organize group packages.
There may be several different structures for thrill-seekers to ascend at Aerial Adventures, but one thing's for certain: they'll find a bird's-eye view waiting for them at the top. If they choose the zipline, they'll soar through the treetops at heights of up to 45 feet. On the ropes course, adventurers clamber up rope ladders and teeter across balance beams, all the while safely attached to a belayer below. Whereas on the climbing towers, guests crawl skyward until they reach a door at the top of the towers for a breathtaking view of the surrounding foliage.
Recurring dreams can often be brief and haunting. But 6 miles west of Lake Geneva at a large theater in the center of 40 acres of wooded trails, Dana Montana happily watches her lifelong dream unfold. Here, she takes center stage to introduce up to 300 guests to her beloved purebred Arabian horses that majestically trot out to join her. They entertain audiences alongside expert acrobatic performers and trainers, whose resumés include stints with the Ringling Bros. Circus, Walt Disney World, and Arabian Nights. Garbed in sparkling bridles and feather-plumed headdresses, the magnificent steeds wow the crowd with dazzling footwork and quotes from Shakespeare's lesser-known horse plays. Montana's park also presents guests with an exotic bird show, a petting zoo, and a wildlife trail that blooms with fiery colors each fall.
During Milwaukee Winter Fest, visitors of all ages can shake the snow from their sleeves inside a climate-controlled facility filled with festive lights and colorful decorations. There they can play in more than 50 attractions including inflated fun zones, carnival rides, and a 240-foot indoor zipline. Singers and musical acts take to the stage during scheduled events to inspire impromptu dance parties and prove once and for all that guitars can be used for more than just housing herb gardens.
On Saturday, September 22, Milwaukee mayor Tom Barrett will gather local businesses, community leaders, and citizens between the two bridge houses of the Wisconsin Avenue Bridge. There, he will ceremonially raise its steel structure and announce a mission to revitalize the street. Following the ceremony, more than 20 motorboats and sailboats will surge down the river and under the bridge, each decked out in Milwaukee-themed decorations and bright colors. Near the bridge, Historical Society members will stage a reenactment of the Milwaukee Bridge War of 1845 and initiate a game of tug of war across the street; on the bridge, meanwhile, trainers from Gold's Gym will lead lightly sweating groups through yoga poses.
Visitors drink and dine to the sounds of live music and multicultural dance performances as well as the sights of a one-act play on two stages on the Riverwalk. They can browse local vendors at a craft market, explore permanent sculpture installations, and stroke their chins while gazing at art pieces in paint, photography, blown glass, and other media from more than 50 local artists at booths along both sides of the river. As the crowd mills about throughout the event, artists from the Plein Aire Painters' Association make art live, painting the beautiful city skyline and buzzing groups of people. A complimentary water taxi runs between both Riverwalks throughout the day's festivities.
Bumper, Slick, Makaia, and Diego may sound like a team of superheroes, but at Oceans of Fun, they are the names of just 4 of the 11 sea lions and seals that inhabit the center's waters. Nestled in the Milwaukee County Zoo, the educational center focuses specifically on marine animals, educating visitors on their traits, their favorite places to play, and conservation strategies. Kids can feed the seals and sea lions buckets of fresh fish or build their animal-training repertoire during interactive programs; the animals also perform in shows four times daily throughout most of the year.
Eight enormous inflatables tower above the sock-clad youngsters visiting Jump Zone's indoor park. Decorated with kid-friendly themes such as Batman, fire trucks, and the rainforest, inflatables accommodate kids ages 2–12 as they hop in bounce houses, slip down slides, navigate obstacle courses, and hatch plans to open up 401(k) accounts. Meanwhile, a toddler play area entices children ages 2 and younger with a pirate-themed inflatable. Along with its inflatable fun, Jump Zone enthralls guests with an arcade and offers to host parties complete with an inflatable throne for guests of honor. Parents enjoy free admission when they enter with a child, at which point they can watch their youngsters play, surf the facility's free WiFi, or join their kids for a bite in the café.

A news service for the people of Michigan from the Mackinac Center for Public Policy
A review and analysis of important state legislative policy issues that do not always receive attention from the general media. Michigan Capitol Confidential will make it easier to keep tabs on your elected representatives in Lansing.
Land banks are supposed to help eliminate blight, revitalize neighborhoods and contribute tax dollars. But in Michigan, land banks have been scooping up property for merely the price of back-taxes owned -- and re-selling them to profit themselves. In the meantime, cutting in front of private-sector buyers.
