March Madness Contest Guide, With a Little Coaching from Bracketologist Brad Wachtel
But, ambitious participants with lofty hoop dreams should certainly rely on more than just blind luck. And no one, in terms of accuracy and enduring reliability, provides guidance like the preeminent bracketologist Brad Wachtel. Wachtel joined the Rutgers coaching staff this year, so "a conflict of interest" prevents him from providing his full, round-by-round bracketology breakdown. However, he was generous enough to bestow our readers with his remarkable insight, and -- most graciously -- his essential tips for filling out a competitive, successful bracket on some of the great Web options out there.
Take his advice, and take ours: we've rounded up the ten best free bracket sites, so once you've gotten your Wachtel-approved strategy, you can hit the courts. Digitally, of course.
To the Contests"Selection Sunday" arrives March 13th, but the actual tournament officially tipped off yesterday. The primary games begin two days later, so the final deadline to submit brackets (aside from the round-by-round challenges) will be Thursday morning prior to the first game's tip-off. CBS and ESPN, which provide excellent online coverage of the games, also feature highly popular bracket challenges. And, as with its killer online Masters coverage, CBS bestows users with a crucial, cut-away "boss" button (just so the workplace slacking won't be quite so blatant).
Dozens of other sites also provide free -- and lucrative -- tournament contests, so players shouldn't fling just one or two desperate half-court heaves. If you take enough shots, you're bound to eventually nail one, right? Why not sign up for all?
CBS Sports, 'Mayhem Bracket Challenge' and 'Round by Round Challenge'
Style: CBS provides a particularly user-friendly bracket service, and it also offers enticing perks like live-streaming and the "boss" button. Allows group creation so you can split your earnings amongst your partners. Open to residents of the U.S. and Canada (Sorry Quebecois), 18 and over.
Scoring: In the Bracket Challenge, players receive one point for each correct pick in the 1st round. Points then double for each following round (Traditional style). Individual round competitions are based on correct number of picks.
ESPN, 'Tournament Challenge'
Style: With ESPN's excellent and instant live-stat options, die-hards can follow every point swing -- both on and off the court. Allows group creation. U.S. residents, 13 and over.
Scoring: Players receive 10 points for each correct pick in the 1st round. Points double for each subsequent round.
Coke Zero, 'NCAA Bracket Challenge'
Style: Players can complete up to three brackets. Open to U.S. residents, 18 and over.
Scoring: Winners are selected from each round's individual leaders.
NBC Sports, 'It's Madness'
Style: Allows group creation. U.S. residents, 18 and over.
Scoring: Traditional.
Yahoo! Sports, 'Yahoo Tourney Pick'em'
Style: Yahoo! provides exclusive trash-talk from Kenny Powers, as well as excellent customizable features for Facebook users. Allows group creation. U.S. residents, 18 and over.
Scoring: Traditional.
Hooters/Fox, 'Bracket Challenge'
Style: The Hooters March Madness of meat serves up particularly mouth-watering prizes for wing lovers. Allows group creation. U.S. residents, 21 and over.
Scoring: Traditional.
Ruby Tuesday, '$1 million Perfect Bracket Challenge'
Style: Played entirely on Facebook. One entry per person. U.S. residents, 18 and over.
Scoring: If multiple players submit a perfect bracket, the winners receive equal percentages of the $1 million. For the 50 other prizes, scoring starts at 2 points for each correct 1st round pick. The points then double for each following round. Winners will be randomly selected from the top overall finishers.
USA Today, 'March Mania Contest'
Style: USA Today's prizes may seem meager compared to some other challenges, but it does provide a great option for playing it safe, picking outlandish upsets or backing a personal favorite regardless of their seed.
Scoring: Uses a formula that tabulates points based on seed and round.
theScore.com, 'Bracket Buster'
Style: One entry per person. Residents of the U.S. and Canada (sorry, Florida, New York, Rhode Island and Quebec), 16 and over.
Scoring: Traditional.
Sports Illustrated, 'Bracket Challenge'
Style: Players are allowed to submit four brackets, so this could be a good method for trying out more creative, and perhaps ridiculous, selection methods. Allows group creation, U.S. residents, 18 and over.
Scoring: Traditional
Now you've got your sites lined up, check out the sidebar above for tips and tricks from Wachtel to keep your (March Madness) game on track.

A Celtic Psaltery
By David Adam
I offer Thee Every cloud that ever swept O'er the skies and broke and wept In rain, and with the flowerlets slept. My King. Each communicant praying Every angel staying Before Thy throne to sing. Adoramus Te!
This extract from the ancient Irish prayer, Glorificamus Te, beautifully captures both the Celtic people's devotion to the psalter and their desire to express their love for God in every situation.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — The University of New Mexico says it has reached an agreement in principle with former basketball coach Steve Alford over his buyout.
Alford said in April he was willing to pay a $200,000 buyout for leaving the Albuquerque school to take the job at UCLA, but he wouldn't pay the $1 million that New Mexico wanted.
The dispute stemmed from the timing of his announcement and a term sheet he had signed just weeks before agreeing to a new 10-year contract with New Mexico that included a $1 million buyout.
Under the agreement announced Friday, the net benefit of the buyout will be $625,000. That includes a $300,000 payment and certain bonuses Alford had agreed to forgo.
The school says there are still some final details that have to be resolved, but it sees the agreement as favorable.

We bring you the worlds first peek at the upcoming F12 M6 coupe! The telltale sign here are the quad exhausts. This prototype appears to wear camoflage body panels and the front bumper is that from the standard F12/F13 that weve seen. However, the wheels appear to be upgraded 19" versions with some beautiful high concavity.
The F12 M6 will share the same engine as the upcoming F10 M5 – the turbocharged 8 cylinder motor from the X5 … CONTINUED
We bring you the first ever video of the upcoming BMW M6, captured near the Nurburgring. Though the video is short, it nevertheless provides a dynamic look at the M6, not to mention a listen at the ~600hp V8 twin turbo motor. We hope these wheels are the eventual production wheels as they look terrific in motion!

Cougar caught in Pincher Creek!
A cougar was spotted Monday morning in Pincher Creek!
The (approximately) 75-pound yearling male cat was in a tree between St. Michael's Catholic church and St. Michael's School on Christie Avenue at 7:15 a.m.
Fish and Wildlife officer Perry Abramenko was called to the scene, and the cougar was tranquilized and relocated safely.
Deer are the primary food source for cougars, and Peace Officer Nigel Whittington says the cougar likely followed some deer into town.
Read these tips from Alberta Environment Sustainable Resource Development regarding cougar encounters.

Baron guards his wood
Heavenly redwood
The second generation
Custom milling available
Got redwood? We do!
Artwork by Krupt.com
Family owned and operated since 1977, The Lumber Baron is your place for redwood lumber. Recently we have expanded our repertoire to include a vast selection of clear Western Red Cedar and numerous reclaimed wood products, including salvaged redwood and doug fir lumber. Over the years we've developed special relationships with the best redwood mills around, so we are able to consistently offer the highest quality, widest selection, and lowest prices on redwood lumber in the Bay Area and beyond. Visit our competitors and compare. You'll be amazed with the quality, selection, price, and service at our lumber yard.
If you're going to build, make it last
Why spend money on a product that doesn't last? Many of our competitors and big box stores offer sapwood redwood products. Learn more about the difference. White or cream in color, sapwood can rot away from the heartwood redwood in a very short amount of time. At The Lumber Baron you can choose from five grades of premium all-heart redwood lumber to satisfy the highest standards for any budget. Whether it's a new 2×6 redwood deck, a back yard trellis, gorgeous old growth vertical grain redwood siding, or replacing a few redwood fence boards, you'll find it here. We also have a large selection of reclaimed and salvaged redwood and doug fir lumber for your green building needs.

this is not what i want it to end but what i think will happen in the end (i just cant get it out of my head)
i think naruto will learn the reaper of death seal that the third used against orochimaru (haven't thought that hard about who would teach him or has taught him. the toads or maybe jiraiya. it could be "that jutsu")
well i think it will be a fight between naruto and the uchiha person (dont correct me i just dont like him) the one that looks like a girl and naruto will be unable to kill sasuke and use the reaper of death seal and seal both of their souls and be locked in an eternal battle until the end of time.
after the battle there will be the largest funeral in the ninja world having everyone in the world at his funeral.
afterwards konoha will accept naruto to have been the hokage and have his face carved into the mountain.

Portsmouth punts naval boy-on-boy to innocent kiddies
Avast there and unfurl the Twat-O-Tron ye scurvy landlubbers of Middle England, lest Portsmouth Historic Dockyard make barrel boys of ye all, damn their eyes: Poster for Portsmouth Historic Dockyard Yes indeed, me buckaroos, that's how Portsmouth punts Blighty's nautical heritage, as a suitably shaken Igor Z can attest. Mr Z …
Gives a whole new meaning to 'Jolly Rodger'
So that's how the flag got it's name!
Lets get this out of the way quickly
..as the young bloke probably said
Let's get all the obligatory jokes out of the way early:
Up the poopdeck
Give him a good flogging
Anything involving the word 'semen'
'You're not the first mate'
Spelling mistakes (and worse)
I'm sorry but even a humorous article should have correct spelling, please correct this.
"..a touch o' the cat.."
This is getting dangerously close to extreme porn so I have to stop reading here and clear my cache.
More in sorrow than in anger.....etc, etc
"a touch o' the cat"
Sorry, no pussy involved.
RE: Lets get this out of the way quickly
You forgot Roger the cabin boy.
You've missed the obligatory
Seamen Staines,
Roger the Cabin Boy
Master Bates
Also, how about,
Polish the Cannon
Slide upon my Sword
@ Tony
You forgot "Porthole surprise".
Viz readers...
..will be all too familiar with these sort of shenanigans, I refer of course to "Up the ****!" section!
The reason the guys f**k each other...
Is because the standard of the young female population is so low.
Having spent a few years gracing the south coast sh*thole with my presence I can attest to the truly shocking quality of the female population.
Generally ugly, a loud gibbon-like eloquence and social structure with a propensity for bad language and the drinking of cheap alcohol. Too many small tight tops to proudly show off the flabby results of too much shallow end of the gene pool breeding and eating of junk food to the uneducated chav like male population. It goes without saying that this model for a life is handed down from the elders who generally believe that shouting "Pom-peeeeeeeey" and having those very letters self tatooed onto ones body is the way to bag a quality partner.
There is also the interesting fashion style called the "Fareham facelift" - this involves the female tying the hair back so tightly it pulls all of the wrinkles out of the face to hide the fat. These pituary retards must think this makes them more attractive, but upon reflection... I beg to differ.
Paris obviously. She may be a bit wayward but she'd light up the back streets of Stamshaw or Fratton like an angel... until the girls of Portsmouth, with their unevolved frontal lobes beat her up of out of jealousy of course.
please please please
can we have a playmobile recreation of this scene (evidently from bareback seamen 3)
mine's the one with easy release buttons.
I think the term you were looking for
Is a lick of the cat, shurely
I fail to see the problem...
... Perhaps I don't have this inane fear of "omg, young man being buggered in picture"...
Does that mean that this, since it does not come with age warnings, could be considered porn?
Bad Reg, bad, bad, bad!
Once again, the Royal Navy are...
coming up from the rear.
Avast (one) there!
Let's all pretend..
..that historic naval life was not like this at all. Sanitised history is CORRECT history.
Pirates killed raped and pillaged, but they wstill appear in kidds books as just lovable characters. We need to harden our kids. SHOW THEM THE UNDERBELLY!
Yes cap'n?
Should it be a "a taste of the captain's daughter"?
Mine's the cape & tricorn...
Naval tradition
Don't talk to me about naval tradition. It's nothing but rum, sodomy and the lash. Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)
With a Yo-ho-ho and perhaps, I might venture, a bottle of rum into the bargain?
I think you mean:
Aaaaaaahrrrrr Aaaaaaahrrrrr Aaaaaaaaaaahrrrrr. Me laddy. The last one up the old sea dog gets a lick of the cat'!
He may have been only a third-rate sailor, but he made a first-rate second course.
The one with a stick that comes back, a beard and bottles of Fine Wine in the pocket.
Those famous last words...
Kiss me Hardy.
@ Viz readers...
Yes! Excellent suggestion for where this ad should be placed!
learning the ropes
"Right, next we use the ram rod and shove the load in hard"
Is it a scene from 'Brokeback Midshipman'?
Is it improper use of the term 'yard arm'?
Is this really what's meant by 'naval exercises'?
I live in portsmouth..
and can assure you this picture is correct off a Friday night down the docks.
AC for so many reasons.
Royal Navy
Dear Sir,
I am glad to hear that your readership disapproves of the poster as strongly as I.
As a naval officer I abhor the implication that the Royal Navy is a haven for buggery. It is well known that we now have the problem relatively under control, and that it is the RAF who now suffer the largest casualties in this area. And what do you think the Argylls shagged in Aden. Arabs?
Yours etc.
Captain B.J. Smethwick, up the old sea dog, with a lick o' the cat.
written on the wall of my law school bogs :
"She was only an admiral's daughter but her room was full of discharged semen."
ok one more
Any of you landlubbers know what a "fid" is?
Ok no.
Imagine a truncheon 6 inches long.
Affectionately known on board as a "ship's boy's starter".
I say!
Arrrrrr! Bring me another cabin boy! This'un be burst...
"....so I have to stop reading here and clear my cache"
Call it what you want but it'll make you go blind.
All together now...
In the navy yes, you can sail the seven seas
@Arsitotle's horse
Off-topic, and a tad too coherent methinks to make Rant of the Week, but bless anyway.
@ Phillip Nichols
Variation on the theme;
"She was only an Admiral's daughter, but every night her navel base was full of discharged semen."
The Sou'wester, ta.
Of course...
Your average innocent kiddie (anyone seen one lately? Anyone?) wouldn't see anything odd in that picture at all. You're only going to look at it a bit sideways if that sort o' thing is on your mind already.
Which says a lot for the mentality of your average Daily Mail reader...
Portsmouth, you say?
There'll be an angry mob along any minute I'd have thought. I'll just go and fetch my "Think of the children" placard...
Nothing but two Republicans getting together in Saint Paul next week
Come on boys, this is what the GOP has turned into over the past decade, and the Repugs don't seem to have a problem with it, so why should should Her Majesty's Navy?) . There's a couple of recreated 19th century riverboats at the docks in St. Paul where Larry Craig can recreate these scenes with his butt buddies, with Dick (no snickering!) Cheney watches for the coast to be clear
Paris because she'd be safe with this crowd while the cabin boy's in danger
@Olly Simmons re. ...clearing my cache
I've tried surfing in a sandbox, to help soak it up, but that causes more problems than it solves. (Looks for the Ibuleve painkilling gel........)
@Aristotle's Horse
...loud gibbon-like eloquence
Brilliant! Love the moniker, too!
Well done!
Royal Navy?
The cabin boy, the cabin boy,
That dirty little nipper...
He packed his ass
With shards of glass
and circumcised the Skipper!
@ Luther Blisset...
Apologies. But it's a way of purging the mental scars.
Off topic again though... when the real Luther Blisset used to play for Bournemouth he used to live in Corfe Mullen. His house was called "Far Corfe".
Work that one out for yourselves.
Oh what the hell... Paris again as she likes dimwits hung like horses.
I'm surprised no one has noticed
that the blonde needs his roots doing. Were there a lot of peroxide blondes in the navy back then?
@Aristotle's Horse
You sure you're not from Colorado, mate?
He's just pulling his rank...
as a rear admiral...
Quite disgraceful
The poor guy is struggling with the cannon while the other one in the funny hat just totally ignores him.
... or have I missed something
obviously its a scumhampton fan as its in winchester were alot of em live avin a laugh doing it.
@Patrick Bateman
Actually, it looks like the middie is pulling it for him.
Paris, 'cuz she does more than that.
The seamen action was funny enough, but oh my, right below it I get the "Don't mess with the Moderatrix" ad as well!!!
Hmmm , an interesting way for the young ladette to stroke a caronade with the port all tightly buttoned up tighter then a kiwi sheeps whatever !
I have to whole heartedly disagree with Aristotles slow and dimwitted horse, I have been drinking in Portsmouth many times and there are some fantastic looking women.
Well bugger me!
( I didn't mean that) Is this a poster of the modern navy?
I think they're getting too much from the pubic purse.
That is all I am going to say!
@ Chris G
"Ha. -Aarh! You have a woman's purse, My Lord! I'll wager that purse has never been used as a rowing-boat. I'll wager it's never had sixteen shipwrecked mariners tossing in it!"
Aah Pompey
The picture.......having long ago dated an RN Admiral's daughter I can attest to the fact that anyone in relation to the Royal Navy ALWAYS does it "Navy style on the Poop Deck". And there's always plenty of "seamen" ;)
To Aristoles.....clearly you have been there and now the place well. I grew up in Havant, (monumental shit hole that it is which makes me so glad I live in Surrey now.) and yes the "females" of the area are generally either stick thin anorexic chav twigs with the "Fareham facelift", or fat gobby fakkiiiiin caaaawwsss with the same hair do, and half a dozen kids by different fathers. There are a few, and I stress few exceptions. Mostly the minority of the population that aren't chav's.
Although saying that there are a number of the female chavs that if you scrapped off the cheap plastered on makeup, scrubbed off the cheap tarty perfume that they seem to bath in, unplastered their hair and got them out of the slapper clothes, they would actually pass as quite attractive young women. Sadly they won't. Perhaps someone would like to perform a massed "My Fair Lady" on Pompey ??
Won't someone think of the children - Aah the Paulsgrove Paedophile riots. A thoroughly entertaining event to everyone local when contacted by people from other area's of the country commenting in shock at the "cars on fire, people being dragged from their homes and beaten up by mistake" and being advised that Paulsgrove is always like that. (Ok so there were 2 cars on fire in comparison to the normal 1 car on fire.) The best part is when I learned that the women in charge of the protesters was arrested right after giving an interview to the BBC for child neglect. She's left her 2 year old at home alone and it had gotten out of the house and was found running in the middle of the street naked. (A thoroughly dangerous thing to do because of all the boy racers round there.) People I know at Portsmouth City Council advised me that this particular woman was not fit to lead such a protest as she had a rap sheet with Social Services for child neglect and child abuse as long as your arm, and had had her children taken away from her several times. Which of course by Paulsgrove standards makes her a model mother lol
I went back to Pompey over the weekend and ended up having to email a friend when I got home to check and see if Pompey really was as run down and crap looking as I saw it, or if I was comparing it to a rose tinted memory of Pompey after living in lovely clean Surrey for the last 8 years.
Paris as she's probably done it Navy style and loves Seamen ;)
@ Chris Miller
Winston Churchill forgot to mention the illegal drugs...

Even before U.S. Rep. Rick Renzi?s recent difficulties, the political pundits were speculating about who would be in the field of candidates for the Republican congressman?s seat in the 2008 election cycle.
On the Democratic side, the names coming up are Jim Ledbetter, of Cottonwood, Steve Owens, of Morenci, and Howard Shanker, of Flagstaff, according to Shane O?Shea, chairman of the Democrats of the Verde Valley.
Coconino County Republican Party Chairman John Echols declined to comment on the 2008 race for Renzi?s District 1 seat or the investigation of alleged wrongdoing by Renzi.
All the potential Democratic candidates are attorneys.
Ledbetter runs the Ledbetter Law firm in Cottonwood.
Owens is currently the director of the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality.
Shanker is a Flagstaff environmental attorney who represents the Sierra Club and the Red Rock Rural Community Association in challenges to the Bella Terra subdivision outside Sedona over its land use and wastewater issues.
Ledbetter said he was encouraged to run in a recent telephone call from U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi [D-Calif.].
Ledbetter said has talked to Brandon Hall, director of the Democratic Coordinated Campaign Committee.
Ledbetter also confirmed that someone from Renzi?s staff called to find out his intentions.
Ledbetter said he plans to decide whether to run by the middle of May.
Shanker said he plans to attend the Democratic State Committee meeting in Phoenix on Sunday, April 29, to test the waters.
Owens could not be reached for comment as of press time.

England prop Alex Corbisiero insists he won't be making up the numbers when he joins the British and Irish Lions squad in Australia.
Corbisiero was due to play for for England against Argentina in Salta on Saturday but was called up as cover for Ireland front-rower Cian Healy, who suffered an ankle injury in the Lions' 69-17 victory over the Western Force and also faces a biting allegation.
Despite going over as a replacement, Corbisiero is convinced that he can win a place in the Test squad.
"I am going there to be first choice and to put my hand up," Corbisiero told Press Association Sport.
"It's going to be a big challenge and there are so many quality players out there. Just to go out there is amazing, but once I'm out there I want to get in the Test team.
"I am really excited. I feel very proud to be included and involved in something as prestigious as the Lions."
The Northampton bound prop was informed of his call-up by England coach Stuart Lancaster and will take four flights from Salta to Brisbane, via Buenos Aires, Santiago and Sydney.
"I was really looking forward to the first Test against Argentina," added Corbisiero.
"We have put a lot of hard work in and we have got an opportunity to put a statement down - Argentina is a hard place to win so part of me is gutted to miss that but part of me is excited to be out there with the Lions, which is one of the most prestigious things in rugby."
Corbisiero was a contender for a spot in the initial Lions squad but sustained a knee injury which limited him to just five starts for London Irish and two for England.
"This season was frustrating with injuries and that took me out of the running for the Lions," he explained.
"I only had a run of two games by the time they picked this squad.
"It was on my radar as a goal this season and I am very grateful I have ended up there."

campaigning to persuade the War Office of the importance of commemorating
the brave sacrifice of men and women from all over the British Empire.
As early as 1916, Ware was requesting help from distinguished horticulturalists
at Kew and from the greatest architects, on how the cemeteries and memorials
should be designed.
On 21 May, 1917 his diligence was rewarded when the Imperial
(now Commonwealth) War Graves Commission was established by Royal Charter.
After the war, the Commission began to make cemeteries into
the tranquil havens we see today. The task was gargantuan; a million Commonwealth
men and women had lost their lives. Started in 1919, the building and planting
of the Commission's First World War cemeteries and memorials would
take twenty years to complete. Just one year after the last memorial was
unveiled, war once again engulfed Europe and the Commission was called upon
once again to honour the fallen.
The Commonwealth War Graves Commission is now responsible for
the graves and memorials of 1.7 million Commonwealth men and women who gave
their lives in the two world wars. The Commission manages over 21,000
sites in 150 countries throughout the world.
The task is never-ending. Gardening takes place all year round
while regular inspection and maintenance keeps the now aging structures in
good repair. The Commission also works to inform, providing information when
required and engaging a new generation in the importance of remembrance.
Education and Community initiatives aim to ensure continued public awareness
of the ultimate sacrifice made by so many young men and women in the name
of freedom.

"We can truly say that the whole circuit of the earth
is girdled with the graves of our dead… I have many times asked
myself whether there can be more potent advocates of peace upon earth… than
this massed multitude of silent witnesses to the desolation of war."

Miss Selfridge glam up grey with the checked waterfall dress
Miss Selfridge are doing this to test me, I swear. It's a case of 'so many frocks, so little cash' for me at the moment, as they churn out loads of pretty, smart dresses that are just perfect for my 'dress, tights, shoes, done' way of dressing for work.
The Grey Check Waterfall Dress (£45) has a little of the Louis Vuitton about it, with a bit of draping detail on the skirt that makes it stand out from the dozens of other checked, belted dresses that are floating around at the moment. I'd swap the black belt for something coloured (perhaps bright blue) and wear my beloved grey ribbed tights underneath. Whoever said grey had to be dull?

Why should they have to? If it can be proved that some benefits are far too high then by all means reduce them. Similarly if some are too low, they should be increased. But individuals shouldn't have to account for what they spend their money on.I also think more should be done around benefits claimants providing supporting evidence for their spending.
On a business trip your company asks you to support spending with receipts. Perfectly reasonable when someone else is fitting the bill.
Why are benefits any different? Why shouldn't benefits claimants be subject to audits, just like HMRC does with many taxpayers.
Im sure you'd have a problem if a millionaire put a stop to a tax audit, why is this different?
There a thousands of long term unemployed housed in council /social housing. As they don't earn income how exactly to you think they pay their hugely subsidised rents?
You guess it, benefits.
Its a free house john. Free because they don't do a single hour of work for it

That is what Congressman Peter King said at a press conference in which elected officials called on the federal government to send resources to get the job done in turning power back on for all Long Island residents. On Friday, Nov. 8, 11 days after super storm Sandy devastated Long Island, the Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) reported that more than 81,000 Nassau County customers remained without power and more than 162,000 throughout Nassau and Suffolk. That was enough for King, County Executive Ed Mangano, Congressman Steve Israel, New York State Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos, Town of Hempstead Supervisor Kate Murray and Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor John Venditto, to hold a press conference and ask the federal government to send the resources to do the job which LIPA has not been able to.
"Today, I along with Congressman Israel will be calling on the President of the United States to immediately harness all of the appropriate federal agencies," said King. Among the agencies that King is calling for are FEMA, the Department of Defense, the Energy Department and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
"LIPA's management has become a disaster managing a disaster," remarked Israel. "We are now on day 12 of delays and excuses. We have no more time for excuses. We have no more time for delays. We need action."
Israel said that the army has the ability to do this as evidenced by their turning the lights back on in Baghdad and Kabul. He said he would call on President Obama to send those same resources to Long Island.
"We need the federal government to mobilize the full range of assets to assist in turning lights back on and getting the gas back flowing again," said Israel. "We don't need to turn the lights back on in Baghdad and Kabul, we need to turn the lights back on in Plainview, and Great Neck and the south shore of Long Island."
Israel further added that James Lee Witt, director of FEMA during the Clinton administration, is considered to be an expert in disaster situations. Israel said he had spoken with Witt, who told the congressman that he is willing to help out.
"He said he is ready, willing and able," Israel said of Witt. "LIPA is unready, unwilling, and unable to get the lights back on."
New York State Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos joined with the congressmen in calling for federal help. Rockville Centre, where Skelos is a resident, has its own utility company. Skelos remarked that village had a plan and restored the power after five or six days, and if a small village could do that, it should have been done by a large organization such as LIPA.
"We are in a desperate situation," said Skelos. "Please, President Obama, this is our Katrina. Get the troops here, get the resources here, get the knowledge here, so we can start an immediate recovery."
"To put it into terms that Washington can readily understand, LIPA's power is at Defcon Two," said County Executive Ed Mangano in also calling for federal help. "I've requested that the federal government send every resource at their disposal to assist the management here at LIPA. LIPA clearly needs the technological and logistical assistance, right down to getting the information on a piece of paper, with clear concise instructions to our residents."
The lack of communication between LIPA and its residents was another issue that the elected officials attacked LIPA about. Town of Hempstead Supervisor Kate Murray said that the town fields about 1,200 calls from residents per day and is frustrated that more information cannot be given to residents.
"There has been a total abrogation of responsibility by LIPA not only in delivering and restoring electricity to our residents but in communicating," said Murray as she blasted the power authority. "The bottom line is we are among the highest ratepayers for electricity in the country, and yet LIPA doesn't think we deserve a phone number to call to say when is my electrical inspector coming to my neighborhood, when should I expect them, what should I do, what can I do to help LIPA restore our electricity."
Murray also said that she had a conference call with LIPA COO Michael Hervey, who could not answer her question as to whether she, as a Town of Hempstead citizen living south of Merrick Road, needed an electrical inspection.
"Get back in our neighborhoods, repower our homes, and let us get back to a semblance of normalcy," she stated. "LIPA has absolutely fallen down on the job."
Oyster Bay Supervisor John Venditto expressed similar feelings. He remarked, "The lack of communication between LIPA and its ratepayers, the very people to whom they are beholden, has been incredulous since Sandy hit our area. Our residents and their customers deserve better."
When the storm struck, Governor Cuomo had remarked that he would closely be watching the performance of utility companies in restoring power outages. He sent a letter to the leaders of utility companies that operate in New York State, including Hervey. In that letter, Cuomo said he would take appropriate action against utility companies and their management if they did not meet their obligations to New Yorkers in this time of crisis. Since then, the governor has labeled the power authority as a "failure."
Brian Nevin, a spokesperson for Ed Mangano said that the county executive has called for the termination of LIPA management. Both King and Skelos said that change is needed.
"I think LIPA will be structurally changed, as the governor has indicated, and for the better," said Skelos. "What exactly that is going to be, we don't know right now. At some point, we will sit down and figure out how to make this responsive to people."
When asked if changes had to be made, Skelos replied, "Absolutely."

Brookville's Green Vale School students were featured in the September/October 2013 issue of Sport Rocketry, the official journal of the National Association of Rocketry.
The seventh-grade students competed nationally at the Team America Rocketry Challenge (TARC) last May in Virginia and were the youngest rocket scientists competing. They were also the only team from Long Island that qualified to enter the competition and one of only two teams from New York State.

Well done
to our 'Olympic Reading Challenge' medal winners!
Keep reading!
Well done! Asia was so proud to show off her first medal .Published on Saturday, May 26, 2012 Like
Week beginning 21.5.12
Last week, the K1 children peaked at just the right time for the K1 Triathlon 2012! We were so proud of them all as they rode bikes around the bike track, ran laps of the running track and swam laps of the swimming pool, cheered on by the rest of the year group. With big smiles and a great sense of achievement, each child climbed to the top of the podium to receive their gold medal. They were all amazing and true champions! Take a look at the Patana News to see photographs of the event and there will also be an entry in your child's 'Learning Journey' to mark this special occasion.
Observing the children taking part in the Triathlon, they all showed great perseverance and displayed a range of skills that they have developed this year. We would like to thank the P.E and Swimming staff for all of their support and for the part they played at the event too.
It is with great pleasure that we invite you all to our Foundation Stage Mini Olympics on Wednesday 6th June 8.00am – 9.30am in the Patana Sports Hall.

"Let's get moving!'
Despite high temperatures in our K1 garden, "On your marks, get set, go!" has been heard as the children have set up their own running races. They have used the stage as a table tennis table and have further activities to try over the next two weeks. We have also been encouraging the children to dance and move to music. It has been very popular!
We have been encouraging the children to drink water after exercise and to eat healthily. This week we made the long trek to the Secondary Smoothie Bar to see how smoothies are made.
We hope you enjoy sharing these pictures at home.

Killing Rommel
It is Autumn,1942. Hitler's legions have swept across Europe and France has fallen. On the Eastern Front, Soviet Russia reels under the German ... Show synopsis It is Autumn,1942. Hitler's legions have swept across Europe and France has fallen. On the Eastern Front, Soviet Russia reels under the German onslaught. Across the channel, a beleaguered Britain struggles on in near-isolation. And in North Africa, Field Marshall Erwin Rommel and his unstoppable Panzers have routed the Eighth Army and now threatens the vital oil fields of the Middle East. With the outcome of the war hanging in the balance, the British hatch a desperate plan - to send a small, heavily armed yet highly mobile force behind enemy lines to strike a blow that will stop the Afrika Korps in its tracks. It is to be called the Long Range Desert Group and its exploits will become the stuff of legend.Narrated by a young lieutenant, Steven Pressfield's bold new novel brings to life the ingenuity, agility and daring of this maverick commando unit. Describing in detail the tactics, the weaponry and the specialized skills needed for combat under extreme desert conditions, he captures too the camaraderie and courage of a disparate, dedicated 'band of brothers' who sacrificed so much for the sake of freedom. Combining historical authenticity with thrilling, explosive action, "Killing Rommel" confirms that we are in the company of a great storyteller - a master chronicler of the fighting man, whether amidst the mountain passes of ancient Greece or the scorching Saharan sands of a more recent world at war...

Pump-and-dump scammers issue German prospectus
The fraudsters behind pump-and-dump stock spams are trying a new technique in a bid to fool spam filters. Junk mails promoting worthless stocks seen this week are appearing with an attached PDF file. Typically titled "German Stock Insider", these PDF files purport to offer insider tips and contain more detail than is generally …
Good spam filters?
I must have some pretty good filters. I've received none of these, just like they filtered out all the garbled image spam. Eudora plus Spamnix.
I did an analysis of pump&dump spam last year. In October, 60% of those were for Chinese firms sold on Chinese pink sheets. Less than five per cent were on US pink sheets. About 5-7% of the total spam I received was via fax, which accounted for about 30% of my total junk faxes. I've got lots more vacation offers.
Can you profit from a pump-and-dump?
Presumably those duped by pump-and-dumps are oblivious to the stocks' collapse until the scammers have sold out.
But given that we're tipped off to the pumped companies via the spam, couldn't someone buy up stock in one of these companies at the low price then sell before it crashes?
Would that work?
The spammers are hoping for that...
They buy their stock first, or get it from the company for some real or imagined service (e.g. 'marketing' or PR); *then* send the spams, and are poised to sell as soon as it climbs - depends on the stock but often they'll be dumping at anything over 10%-20% rise, and they're trying to sell while it's still rising (far easier!).
The idea is that punters see it rising, think it's for real, buy more (which helps the price rise more)... and then no one else is taken in by the spam, and the party stops within a day or so.
If these are sparsely traded penny shares, or on an unregulated market like the Pink Sheets (like Ofex but worse, basically a private market) they'll maybe do 100x their normal volume for a few days and then revert to nothing, so you risk having real trouble even finding a buyer, still less at a profit.
Don't be fooled. If anyone really knew of a sure money-making opportunity, they wouldn't be shouting it on millions of emails... unless that IS the opportunity.
Re: Can you profit from a pump-and-dump?
I got one a few months back plugging Patientline (the only Uk based victim I know of). The price did jump soon after and stayed high long enough for me to have profited if I'd moved fast enough. I only found out too late to take advantage.
Pump and Dump doesn't help the victim company though. So there's no way I'd get involved.
All my Pump and Dump spam lately are in German. No pdf attachments yet though.
Re: Can you profit from a pump-and-dump?
I remember reading a paper about this recently, where some students analysed the performance of these pumped stocks (I think I saw the article @ SANS?)
While some might think that it's worth a punt, these are penny-stocks that are being traded. Say, you buy a few thousand £££'s worth. The paper concluded that even if you knew exactly the right time to sell them, then you weren't likely to see a hell of a lot of return on that - most likely considerably less than 10%.
There's the downside - the scammers know at what point they are going to dump the shares. You don't. Too risky was their conclusion, and certainly not worth it financially.
Re: Can you profit from a pump-and-dump?
Rather risky. When you receive the email, you don't know where you are in the chain - yes, you might be able to get in before everyone else, but equally you might have received the email later than everyone else and buy just before it plummets.
If you tried it over a number of scams, I suspect it would average out to a loss - rather like gambling. The house (in this case the scammers, who got in before sending the email) always wins.
To tell the truth, I rather suspect the only people being pulled in to these scams now are people who recognise that it is a scam, but like you think that they can beat the system. A typical con, actually. After all, do you really think people genuinely believe the image-based stock tipoffs?

Long bobs like Gwyneth Paltrow's are everywhere this season "because everyone's growing out their hair," says celebrity hairstylist Kristin Ess of Warren-Tricomi L.A. To make over your look without a cut, try "a voluminious '60s-inspired Bond girl bob," she recommends. Use a 1.5-in. barrel curling iron to give all-over curls, let cool and brush gently.

For the People should more aptly be called "For Just Over Half the People" Lifetime still has trouble grasping the concept that it can provide strong role models for its female target audience without casting the opposite sex as nothing more than criminals, creeps and cads.
In the drama series set in the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office, all the authority figures are women - the new DA, the chief deputy district attorney, the head prosecutor and the judge in one of the cases that drive the pilot. There has never been such a female-centric chain of command in reality, series creator Catherine LePard acknowledges, but this is "Television for Women."
