What is Dimitra?
Dimitra is named after Demeter, the ancient Greek goddess of agriculture and harvests.
Dimitra, an FAO project
The Dimitra project, which has its main office in Brussels (Belgium), was launched in 1994 by the European Commission with the support of the King Baudouin Foundation.
It has been a project of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) since 1998 and receives financial support from the Belgian Development Cooperation. Dimitra also benefits from the support of other bi- or multilateral funding agencies in the framework of its field activities.
Since 2008, Dimitra is part of the FAO-Belgium partnership programme "Knowledge Management and Gender".
Objectives: gender, communication and rural development
Dimitra is a participatory information and communication project which contributes to improving the visibility of rural populations, women in particular.
The goal of Dimitra is to highlight the role of women and men as producers, so that their respective interests are better taken into consideration and they can fully participate in the rural development of their communities and countries.
The project builds the capacities of rural populations, women in particular, through information dissemination and the exchange of experiences. It aims at helping rural women and their organisations to make their voices heard at national and international levels. This way, it contributes to improving their living conditions and status by highlighting the importance and value of their contributions to food security and sustainable development. Dimitra also strives to make development actors more gender sensitive and to promote gender equality.
Dimitra's work is guided by three important principles:
- partnership - working closely with local partner organisations to highlight local knowledge;
- participation - active participation of civil society organisations;
- networking - supporting the exchange of good practices, ideas and experiences.
Today, about ten African organisations have a partnership agreement with Dimitra to collect information on organisations based in Africa which work with rural women and/or use a gender approach. All the information collected is integrated into our regularly updated Database. Particular attention is given to the link between women and men farmers' organisations and community radios. An indispensable communication tool in Africa, community radio is an important development actor, particularly in rural areas.
What Dimitra does:
collaborate with its African partners to raise awareness on gender issues for sustainable development and to collect information on organisations which work on gender issues and/or with rural women;
disseminate this information as largely as possible, using both new technologies (Internet, on-line Database, etc.) and more "traditional" means of communication (newsletter, brochures, community radio, radio listeners' clubs, etc.);
support the organisation of workshops, conferences and events on themes and issues determined at the grassroots, women's organisations in particular;
facilitate the networking of grassroots organisations;
strengthen the capacities of civil society organisations and the personnel of relevant ministries in the field of information, communication, gender, advocacy and networking;
promote the exchange of information between rural populations, grassroots organisations, NGOs, Ministries and all other development actors, women and men alike.

Well that devastating and frankly historic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is today causing -- problems along the gulf south.
More than two years after the disaster happened.
According to the reporting of the US Coast Guard there's an oil Sheen.
That turned out near the sunken deep water horizon rig last month and it matches the oil from the 2010 disaster they tested it.
It does not pose a risk to the gulf shoreline.
The Coast Guard report that BP and Transocean which owned the rig could be liable for this new oil.
In the meantime BP is apparently close to a multi billion dollar settlement.
In the Justice Department's federal lawsuit over that -- that's according to the reporting of the Wall Street Journal which again is owned by -- company.
Remember the explosion killed eleven people injured more than a dozen others it unleashed some 200 million gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico.
Let's take this to the judge Fox News senior judicial analyst educated Paula tanto inspected -- New York studios a settlement is it to get it what's the situation -- just.
Well there's there's two there -- cases that the federal government has against BP one -- a threatened to criminal case.
They have not yet indicted the corporation but -- basically holding and an indictment in their hand saying we'll file this tomorrow there.
And the other is a lawsuit that the feds have filed.
Under several federal statutes which lets the federal government sue in behalf of property owners whose property has been damaged by the oil spill.
The Wall Street Journal reports this morning that both cases will be settled.
That BP will cough up billions in criminal fines.
As well as billions in compensation -- -- the numbers sound ridiculous because Wall Street Journal and just like anybody else doesn't know exactly what the numbers are.
There somewhere between 6000000000 and 21 billion but the Wall Street Journal sources and they -- they appear to be reliable.
Have have indicated that they are very close to some number between six and 21 -- whatever it is BP will pay of course that won't actually have to pay -- chat because you may remember.
They coughed up twenty billion -- -- a month after the -- because that vice president literally.
Put his arm on the then CEO of BP saying have a twenty billion now.
So the feds will just take this money and -- And that money would go to the states Alabama Mississippi Louisiana all of Florida or -- went out without it getting too much in the weeds there until federal statutes one lets the federal government give it to the states for all their damages damages to state property and say reduction and in taxes paid by people who lost -- -- -- didn't pay taxes to the state.
The other -- only lets the federal government reimburse the states that have actually spent money to clean up the environment only one state in the Gulf Coast has spent.
Enough money to -- him to demand reimbursement for cleaning up the environment.
That's Louisiana.
But the other states there Texas Alabama the great state and Mississippi.
We all so want some money from the -- my guess is.
The feds will distribute that money to the states the -- will collect a lot of money from BP somewhere closer to the twenty billion and and this case will be over.
Over over and done with the -- sitting in BP can move on do more drilling and make more billions right.
Well yes and what you said at the outset here is very significant because that the people who received money from BP agreed never to -- again for anything having to do what is the most they didn't know that there might be yet another spill or another machine.
Coming from the original spell they won't be able to sue for any damages from that.
Yes stand by for news just a volatile great to see thank you good to see your --

Hey guys, i am just trying to finalize what products to use to finally tackle the oxidized single stage acrylic enamel on my summe car.. A little backround, it is red, about 9 years old and quote dull and noticeable fading. My plan is to use the PC DA.
I now the "least agressive method first" is ofter recommended but with the amount of dullness and fading i figured it will likely take a bit of effort. I know the UC/UP are newer and possibly a better finish due to their technology but i am just wondering if the UC is going to be too aggressive....i hear it takes off a lot of paint which makes me nervous with the single stage. On the other hand, startinig with the UP i am thinking might be too light to take of the fading etc??
Would the 83 or 80 be a better bet with this paint and then follow with M7? Would it be best to try the M80 first and see what happens? The only thing i am curious about the "least aggressive first" is say if you use M80 and then 83 (becuase it didn't take off enough) then you are actually worse off then if you just used M83 in the first place, correct?
Any advice would be helpful.

Roaming back and forth from the track to the jumping stations all afternoon long, Nodaway-Holt junior Megan Rosenbohm was among the busier athletes at Saturday's Class 1 Sectional 4 Meet.
That will be the case this coming weekend, too.
In her best sectional showing yet, Rosenbohm qualified for the Class 1 State Track & Field Meet in all four of her events and advanced in two of them as the first place finisher.
Rosenbohm defended her sectional title in the triple jump, pulled a minor upset to win the long jump and finished third in both of her track events—the 200M and 400M dash.
Single-handedly, Rosenbohm scored 34 points and earned the Lady Trojans a ninth place team finish, best among the five teams present from Nodaway County. She was the only one of four Nodaway-Holt sectional qualifiers to get to state.
Rosenbohm will be making her third appearance at the state meet in Jefferson City, looking to add to her collection of five state medals.
"It's pretty exciting," said Rosenbohm. "I would've liked to place better in the 200 and 400, but I'll take it. Hopefully, I can run faster and jump further at state."
Rosenbohm locked down her first sectional title in her first event of the afternoon—the triple jump.
A second place finisher in the triple jump at state last year, Rosenbohm won with a distance of 34-2.50 that was under the 35-0.75 mark she jumped at districts Tuesday.
Nobody else in the field went past 34 feet, though. Polo sophomore Cati Boruch finished second at 33-9.
In the 200M dash, Rosenbohm ran right around the same time as she did at districts—27.5—and crossed the finish line in third, securing a spot in the event at state for the first time in her career.
Rosenbohm duplicated that finish in the 400M dash with a time of 1:02.88, making her 3-for-3. After that, it was back over to the long jump where on her final attempt Rosenbohm ensured a healthy margin of victory with a landing of 16-4.50.
The fourth seed coming into the event, Rosenbohm was the only long jumper to go over 16 feet. Her winning mark bettered what she did at districts by over six inches and approached her career-best of 16-7.
"After that 400, I was pretty drained," said Rosenbohm. "But I got a second wind."
Rosenbohm ended up as the only county athlete to win two sectional events. The only other to win even one was North Nodaway sophomore Alysa Lyle.
One of four Nodaway County sectional qualifiers in the high jump, Lyle beat all the rest and four others from District 7 with a season-best jump of 5-0. Lyle, whose been bothered by ankle issues most of the season, hadn't reached that mark since last year at state.
Page 2 of 3 - She jumped 4-8 at districts and finished third.
Once assured of victory, Lyle attempted 5-1, but couldn't quite make it over the bar.
Regardless, the first place sectional finish sends her back to state for the second time in two years. Once again, she'll be North Nodaway's lone representative.
"It felt really good because I haven't gotten over five-foot all year," said Lyle who transferred into the district from Worth County before she was a freshman.
Two schools that produced multiple state qualifiers were West Nodaway and Northeast Nodaway.
The Rockets had the most with five, advancing junior Emily Cordell (400M dash), sophomore Trevor Meyer (long jump) and their 4 x 400M girls relay.
After narrowly missing out on going to state in the 200M dash, Cordell finished runner-up to Maria Rains of KC Lutheran in the 400M dash with a time of 1:02.64. Running nearly a second faster than at districts, Cordell is headed back to state in the event she finished fourth in last year.
That's not all.
Later on in the day, Cordell willed the Rockets 4 x 400M relay to state by overcoming a sizable deficit to Worth County on the last lap. West Nodaway was in fifth place until Cordell passed Worth County's final runner in the last 30 meters.
The Rockets finished in 4:38.49, edging Worth County by just over a second for the final state qualifying spot.
"We were in fifth and these girls, they've worked hard all season long trying to get there," said Cordell, pointing to relay mates Toni Carroll, Mel McGinness and Andrea Muller. "It was just worth it for them to get to state. It was a fun experience."
Just before the 4 x 400M relay comeback, Meyer earned his first-ever trip to state with a fourth place finish in the long jump.
The third-seeded Meyer traveled 19-4—three inches off his best at districts. He earlier finished seventh in the 200M dash.
Northeast Nodaway advanced a a pair of first-time qualifiers to state, senior Sage DeLong (100M dash) and junior Steve Schulte (triple jump).
DeLong ran right to his seeding to finish third in the 100M dash in 11.67. The fourth-seeded Schulte did the same in the triple jump but landed nearly a foot further than he did at districts, 40-9.75.
Jefferson brought the most girls athletes in the county to sectionals, but only one—senior Shanna Welch—made it through to state.
Competing in four events, Welch qualified for state in one—the triple jump—with a third place finish.
Welch was seeded fourth in the long jump and finished fifth. In the 300M and 100M hurdles, she was sixth and seventh.
Page 3 of 3 - "Not the best, but I'm at least going to state," said Welch, a three-time state medalist in the triple jump. "In the long jump, I just didn't jump my best and everybody else was jumping pretty good. I didn't get up there like I did earlier this week."
All first-time sectional qualifiers, Jefferson freshman Jessie Henry (high jump), junior Maddison Clements (high jump), sophomore Kristen Neilson (discus) and junior Margaret Guss (800M run) finished outside the top four.
Henry came the closest of the bunch of going to state, finishing fifth in the high jump with a height of 4-8.
Other girls eliminated in sectionals were Northeast Nodaway junior Taryn Farnan (high jump), Northeast Nodaway freshman Jill Spire (100M dash) and Nodaway-Holt freshman Jordan Long (shot put). All three finished sixth or below.
Nodaway-Holt sprinter Wade Saxton missed out on going to state by one spot in the 100M dash, finishing fifth. He was seventh in the 200M dash.
West Nodaway's Clay Mitchell (400M dash) and Nodaway-Holt's Derek Lemon (1600M run) each finished eighth.
Mound City won the girls sectional title with 107 points. Rock Port was the boys sectional champion with 85 points.
The Class 1 State Track & Field Championships begin Friday at Dwight T. Reed Stadium in Jefferson City.

Picture Bride, first published in 1987, is the story of a young Japanese woman who leaves, what she believes to be, the confines of her small village and heads for the broader horizons of the United States in the early decades of the twentieth century. Waiting for her is her future husband, a man whom she has never met. She has seen a picture of him and has heard stories of his prosperity, but she knows little else about the man, who has also only seen a photograph of her. Theirs is a typical story of the times in which Japanese bachelors ventured forth to the West Coast of the United States, hoping to find wealth, to buy a house, and then to send for a woman to marry. In most cases, both the men and the women were not fully prepared for the challenges of moving away from the security and comfort of their native country. Many of these new immigrants were caught off guard by the cultural and racist antagonism waiting for them in their adopted country, as well as the awkwardness of marrying a complete stranger.
Picture Bride begins as the protagonist, Hana Omiya, is sailing toward the United States to meet for the first time a man called Taro Takeda. Hana's heart and mind are afire with imagined possibilities. Unfortunately, by the end of the story, many of Hana's and Taro's dreams are unrealized. They have watched friends die. Others have given up and returned to their native land. When World War II breaks out, Hana and Taro are detained in prison camps, their material possessions reduced to the contents of four suitcases. This is all they can show for their thirty years of hard work. They are mistrusted by non-Japanese people, their neighbors, employers, and government leaders. How will they find the strength and courage to begin again?
Although a prolific writer, Yoshiko Uchida wrote only one novel for adult readers, Picture Bride. The work was reprinted many times over the years. Despite the traumatic events presented in this novel, the story ends on a hopeful note, encouraging readers to cheer for the protagonist's seemingly endless supply of courage.

"Good for walking to Kennebunkport"
This was a motel. The location was good, within walking distance of Kennebunkport. The rooms were clean but need to be upgraded, they were very basic. Quiet location, good value.Ósvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia
"Nice for family, outdated"
Friendly staff. Room was low quality. Yucky thin stained sheets, bedding barely covered mattress, old dirty lamps, stained carpeting, very weak wi-fi in rooms, In general the buildings and furnishings are in need of updating. But on good side, if you are going with kids you should be comfortable there. Breakfast ALL carbs, no protein.Ósvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

"A disappointing stay for the money."
My wife and i spent 6 days at the Village Cove and had expected more for the money. The room was clean but maintenance of building D whitch we were in was lacking. Assigned parking places were poorly marked and not monitored by management. Little did we know the pool was shared by quests from other facilities owned by management and private parties […] were held at the pool on several of our days. This created parking problems for us. The room was quiet until the weekend when some quests played loud television until after midnight. The complementary breakfasts were the same each day and boring. Yes we expected more and would not return or recommend this facility. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

"Try somewhere else!"
There was no elevator. Only stairs which were very steep. There was also a dirty man's sock sticking out from under one of the beds. The room was decorated sometime in the 1970's and has not been updated!Ósvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

The Village Cove Inn has recently been purchased and the new owners have scheduled a renovation of the whole property to take place at the end of this season. We hope that you might consider returning to us and enjoy all our new upgrades.
"Great Place"
We enjoyed our stay at the Village Cove Inn. The only problem I had was that the restaurant on the property was closed. Also, we never got a chance to enjoy the indoor pool. The continental breakfast was adequate. We greeted well and our room was upgraded for us. I would definately stay there again if we are in the area.Ósvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
"Very Pleased"
I had read other reviews about the hotel after booking. I was concerned about my choice based on those reviews. I must say, I didn't find any of the concerns listed. The Onwers/Staff where very helpful. The room was clean and beds where comfortable. The Hotel was properly built back in the 60's, which added to the charm. The continental breakfast was […] good and I highly recomment the homemade blueberry coffee cake. I would stay here again and recomment it to friends. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com

"We loved the setting, and close to downtown"
The location of the hotel was perfect; within a short walk to everything you want to do downtown. The layout of the hotel was great - tucked away, quiet, tranquil setting. The hotel's restaurant and bar were closed, which was not made clear to us before we reserved, but they did serve a nice breakfast which was included with our stay. The heated outdoor […] pool was not heated! But it was refreshing during out stay when it was 85 degrees. We liked our stay a lot, and are considering returning. We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to others; it was very affordable. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
"Not Impressed"
Even with Expedia's discount, this Inn was expensive. It was old and not kept up very well. the desk clerk was cordial, as was the maid, that we met. Inns and B&B's at the high season in Kennebunkport, are expensive, but this place was way overpriced for the condition that we found it in. If there had been any other rooms available, I would have gladly […] paid a bit more for something nicer. Needs updating, painting, musty smell removing! We went out and bought a candle to keep burning while we were there, just to be able to stand it. The sheets were clean and the continental breakfast was good. The in room a/c worked well.

"Disappointed in Kennebunkport"
We had read in the reviews that the another couple were disappointed that the restaurant was not open during the off season but it is no longer opened at all. The hotel needs a lot of repair and for the price we paid we were surprised with how musty the room was and that it needed so much work. The owner was very nice and helpful.Ósvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
"What a dump."
Customers are misled to believe they actually have a full service restaurant. They serve a low end continental breakfast. We felt ripped off. The room smelled of cheap disinfectant and is about the wierdest setup I've ever seen with no real door, but a sliding glass entry where the only amount of natural lighting available would be to have your full […] room on display like a fishbowl. The location was convenient, but this place should be bulldozed or at least properly advertised. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
"Not Impressed"
Knowing that we were paying more for location than quality of accomodations, we went into this with already lowered expectations, however, this property failed to meet even that. Room was okay, except for the super slippery tub that my son fell in twice over the course of a week, the less than effective air conditioning unit, a sink stopper that didn't […] work and an unpleasant odor in the room that either went away over the week or we just got used to it. Continental breakfast was served in a dingy, former restaurant and was the same offering day in and day out. Outdoor pool could use some attention. Water was murky and paint was peeling from the stairs and the closest restrooms were out of service. Be forewarned - the 'beach' that this property is within walking distance of is small and rocky - not a place you'd want to spend the day at and walking distance to town is a bit of stretch. Also note that the local beaches here require the purchase of daily parking passes at the local Chamber of Commerce, not very convenient. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia
"Good location, but thin walls."
POSITIVES: Walking distance to town, beautiful surroundings, large room, quaint porch, good continental breakfast, enjoyed indoor pool. Good for price. NEGATIVES: Thin walls, commercial drop ceiling. Kinda felt like a modular building. Heard more than I'd like to in the room next door.Ósvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia
The In was very nice. The grounds were beautiful. I wish though theat the restraurant and tavern had been open. It would have been nice to go and sit on the patio in the evening and relax and get a snack. Also my air conditioner didn't work and it was quite stuffy in my room.

"Village Cove in Kennebunkport, ME"
A breakfast basket was delivered as soon as we opened the drape in the morning - a lovely touch. The layout of the inn plus our room and lavatory area were very nice, but we were puzzled by the condition of toilet and tub area. It needs to be redone to match the rest of the accommodations. The restaurant is not open, but they are looking for someone […] to run it. This was not a hardship for us since they guided us to a very good restaurant. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
I was disappointed that the hotel dining room was not yet open for the season. I would have liked to know this before booking. The toilet in our room rocked every time we sat on it.

Directions stated it was at 29 S. Main, howver, that was not correct. Took us over 30 mins to find exact location of the Inn. When we pulled in no directions to tell you where to check in.

Welcome to 2012, where there's an app for everything.
That's right – apps aren't just for games and music anymore – they cover just about every interest and industry out there. As a typical girl who is constantly browsing for fashion and style ideas on Pinterest and the like, I was excited to learn that there are actually useful fashion apps now as well.
So here's a great guest post by Jane Johnson for my fellow iGeeks who also happen to have a thing for fashion.
six must-have tools for the fashion-forward.
Technology has revolutionized the way we shop, find the duds we love, find the best deals on designer brands, and it even influences the fashion that will be on the runways next season. Thanks to smart phone apps like the following six style-inspired beauties I've listed below, all you need is an iPhone, a BlackBerry, or an Android to get impeccable style inspiration while you're on the go! It's true; these apps offer something for runway fashionistas, accessory addicts, global fashion connoisseurs, shoe-o-holics, and even a closet organizer to keep your boudoir looking as fabulous as you do!
Check out my tops picks for the must-have, fashion-focused smart phone apps that every fashionista needs at her fingertips. However, I must warn you, if you choose to get caught up in any of these on the subway, you'll probably miss your stop because they are just so incredibly addictive…
1. Snapette (Free – for Android and iPhone)
The perfect smart phone app for accessory addicts, Snapette is a cult-favorite app among fashion's elite. Snapette features accessory shots—from Rome to Rodeo Drive—and allows users to upload a photo of their favorite shoe and handbag obsessions for other viewers to "like". What's better than a global consensus to convince you that you should buy those $800 Manolo Blahniks? It will sure make you feel better about a little shoe shopping spree every week or so!
2. The Cut on the Runway (Free – for iPhone)
A free app from New York Media LLC., The Cut on the Runway features the latest and hottest runway shows from Fashion Week, plus fashion archives that date back to 2002. Fashionistas can slink their through the latest designs from the hottest designers a la a model on a catwalk. And if you see something you just have to have (and can actually afford) you can bookmark it, save it to your "wish list", or get opinions from your 250 closest Facebook friends before you pull out that credit card.
3. Stylebook ($3.99 – for iPhone)
Think of Stylebook as your really hip fashion accountant (with designer glasses of course)…one that you would kill for their sexy peep toe pumps. Anyhow, the Stylebook app will catalogue every single item of clothing in your closet and pair clothing items, shoes, purses, and accessories together to take the confusion over your morning dressing routine. Literally, this app put together items I never thought would work, and now I have a dozen fabulous, brand new looks in my fashion arsenal. All you need to do to get going with Stylebook is load images of your clothing items on to your smart phone. My girlfriend and I did it in under an hour using our Samsung cell phones. You never know what items you have tucked away in the back of your closet that might be the key piece to a new look or the next style trend.
4. Satorialist (Free – for iPhone)
Talk about fashion eye candy! I can't get enough of the Satorialist, acclaimed fashion photo bug and blogger Scott Schuman began his popular fashion photo blog, The Sartorialist, in hopes of creating a two-way dialogue about the world of fashion and its relationship to real life. Follow the latest trends and styles of fashion from the busy streets of New York, the romantic area of Paris, and the fashion-forward runways of Milan to discover the trendsetting styles before all of your friends.
5. iShoes (Free – for iPhone)
The crowning piece to any outfit is obviously the shoes! iShoes is your fashion ally to tracking down that perfect pair from over 50,000 stunning styles. You can sort by color, style, or by lowest price.
6. Go Try It On (Free- for iPhone)
Have you ever thought it would be nice to have a second opinion when shopping by yourself? Especially before you bought that pair of electric blue jeggings last fall! Never fear, Go Try It On is your second opinion fashion app. Simply snap a shot of you wearing any item you wish you buy, upload it to the Go Try It On app, and let strangers or friends decide the fate of that bubble skirt vs. the strapless dress with the sweat heart neckline. You can also do your fair share of critiquing their fashion choices whenever the mood strikes.

Pleasanton Lacrosse Club's new junior varsity team is up and running, in short, because one Lax-loving dad from Castro Valley happened to come to town three years ago to run errrands.
"One weekend, I headed over the hill, probably to get something at Home Depot or get a shake at In-and-Out Burger or something, and I stumbled upon a Pleasanton lacrosse league registration sign," said Dave Adams, Castro Valley resident, coach and founder of team Lightning.
Lightning, for boys in grades nine, 10 and 11, is a junior varsity-level team and the newest addition to the popular Pleasanton Lacrosse Club (PLC). With 24 players, Lightning just finished its first season.
"The team is for kids who, for whatever reason, can't or don't play with a high school," said Adams. His son's high school in Castro Valley lacks lacrosse.
Lax-playing boys and girls of Pleasanton have, at their disposal, the boys' PLC, the Pleasanton Girls Lacrosse Club, plus heavily supported junior varsity and varsity teams at both Amador Valley and Foothill high schools.
But that's not the case for some surrounding communities, such as Castro Valley, where there is no lacrosse — the dilemma facing Michael Adams, 15, who played club lacrosse in Pleasanton as a middle-schooler.
But entering Castro Valley High School this year as freshman, Michael, and his lax-playing pals, were out of playing options until Adams stepped up and launched Lightning.
"I knew he'd do something about it," said CVHS freshman Patrick Lavin, 15, a Lightning defender. "He's a can-do kind-of-guy."
PLC board member Rory Manley, a founding father of Pleasanton lacrosse and coach at Amador Valley, said tapping Adams to launch the new PLC team was a no-brainer.
"David has the insight, the passion, and the wisdom," said Manley, plus years of experience.
Adams grew up playing in his home state of Maryland and for his alma mater Stanford University.
Adams coached his kids' Castro Valley soccer teams, until the fateful weekend three years ago when he discovered, by happenstance, that his favorite sport was flourishing one town away.
After being introduced to Manley and Pleasanton lacrosse, Adams jumped in, bought lacrosse sticks for his son and a friend, and coached Pleasanton league teams for the next two years for 7th- and 8th-grade boys.
While it sometimes seems "new" to Californians, lacrosse is actually the national summer sport of Canada, practically an East Coast tradition, and has roots dating back to Native Americans, who played with sticks made of leather and a rock for a ball.
Lacrosse ranks as the nation's fastest-growing sport, with high school participants more than doubling in a decade, from 74,000 in 2000 to 160,000 in 2010, according to the National Federation of State High School Associations.
Going back two decades, that growth is more than 500 percent, according to the NFHS.
In California, the sport has shown serious growth, with high school participation tripling since 2002 when 4,000 boys and girls played on school teams, to more than 12,000 statewide in 2010, NFHS data shows.
But the lacrosse boom is not uniform throughout the East Bay.
In fact, there is a wide swath where no lacrosse exists that runs from San Leandro south to Union City, including Hayward, San Lorenzo and Castro Valley, according to the National California Junior Lacrosse Association, the regional umbrella group. An NCJLA map of leagues and teams shows the void.
That bald spot would actually extend south to nearly Campbell, except a new league sprang up last year in Fremont.
The Fremont Spartans Lacrosse Club is tapping youth from Fremont, Newark and Union City. Organizers hope to have a high school-level club team in place next year, and are offering summer clinics with the city's parks and recreation department for boys and girls ages 5 through 18 years old.
A team like PLC's Lightning is key to expanding playing opportunities for regional teens.
"My son and his friends were loving the game, wanting to play a sport in high school, but were out of options within the PLC (as) it ended at U15," Adams said. "Rory encouraged me to start a club team."
"They all loved it," he said of his players, who hail from Pleasanton, Castro Valley, San Ramon, Danville and Orinda.
Lightning, meanwhile, did not have the winningest of seasons in its debut, but Adams said that was OK and expected as it was a novice team going up against more experienced contenders.
"Year one is always a bit ugly to watch," he said. "But by year two, the game develops 'flow.'"
Since some players are new recruits, Adams teaches what he calls a skill-set, six-pack:
(1) catch;
(2) throw;
(3) throw right-handed;
(4) throw left-handed;
(5) throw standing still;
and (6) throw on the run.
"Once you get that," Adams explained, "which can be mastered with a stick, ball, a wall and ideally a friend or two, you are set."
Registration for summer league play — including the new JV level — is underway at the PLC web site at www.pleasantonlacrosse.com

Eidos president Ian Livingstone has confirmed what pretty much every Hitman fan has been waiting for: a new Hitman game. It's not really a surprise, but it's still good to have some confirmation at least.
In an interview with GameIndians, Livingstone confirmed that IO Interactive is indeed developing the next installment in the hit franchise:
It's being worked on, but there's been no announcement on the release date yet. We haven't even announced the game yet, so everything you hear about the next Hitman game is purely speculation at this point.
Livingstone also noted that the game is being developed alongside a new Kane & Lynch game and Mini-Ninjas, so it may take a while until we see Agent 47 in action again.
