The Army on Thursday faulted reports attributed to the Jama'atu Nasril Islam that the deployment of the Commandant of the Armed Forces Command and Staff College, Air Vice- Marshal Abdulahi Kure, and the Commander, Infantry Corps and Centre, Jaji, Maj.-Gen. Mohammed Yusuf, was motivated by religious sentiments.
The Director of Military Intelligence, Maj.-Gen. Ahmed Jibril, who represented the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen Azubuike Ihejirika, at a press briefing in Abuja, said the changes were devoid of any religious undertone.
The JNI had through its Secretary-General, Dr. Khalid Aliyu, faulted the removal of the two moslem officers and their replacement with Christians.
"The fact that the two officers who were swiftly removed are Muslims and were replaced by two officers who are non-Muslims makes any discerning observer to be suspicious of the motives behind the whole exercise," the group said.
However, Jibril, said it would be unfair for people to impute religious sentiments into the postings at the Jaji Cantonment following the twin bomb blasts that hit St. Andrew's Military Protestants Church, Jaji.
He maintained that religion was not an issue in the Nigerian Army's decision-making process.
Jibril said if the JNI, which he described as one of the organisations that had supported the Army in the fight against terrorism and general insecurity in the country had contacted the Army, adequate explanations would have been made available to the group on the issue.
He said when the Division 1 of the Nigerian Army, Kaduna was attacked in February 7, 2012, the Army authorities replaced its General Officer Commanding, Maj.-Gen. J.O. Shoboiki, a Christian with Maj.-Gen. Garba Abdulwahab, a muslim.
He pointed out that when the decision was taken, no section of the society frowned on the removal of Shoboiki and his replacement with a Muslim officer.
He urged Nigerians to avoid attaching ethno- religious sentiments to the actions of the Army, stressing that the force was an institution whose actions are guided by professionalism and global best practices.
He said, "The boards of inquiry and changes in some appointments are inevitable steps to create the right atmosphere for thorough investigations. It is however surprising that a section of the public is insinuating that the changes at the Armed Forces Command and Staff College and Infantry Corps and Centre have religious connotations."

A two-car accident Friday afternoon on Route 3 at the entrance to Salmon Run Mall in the town of Watertown left five people injured, with one being flown to Upstate Medical University in Syracuse.
Jefferson County sheriffs deputies said Faith G. Bettinger, 69, Adams, was making a left turn into the mall in her 2007 Toyota sedan when she crossed into the path of Dawn M. Knight, 40, Watertown, who was traveling west on Route 3 in her 2005 Mercury SUV and had the right of way.
Mrs. Bettinger was taken to Samaritan Medical Center, as were three of the four passengers in Ms. Knights vehicle.

How Are We Doing Compared to the Plan?
For those of you who capitalized Missouri Corporate Credit Union (MCCU) you might be interested in how we are performing against the Strategic Plan approved for release by the NCUA for the re-capitalization process. For credit unions interested in joining MCCU, I'm certain you are curious about how well we are doing and what the future holds.
Regarding the NCUA capital standards, the most critical target facing us is compliance with the 45 bps retained earnings requirement that must be met by September 30, 2013. The Strategic Plan approved for release by the NCUA in May 2011 and used for the re-capitalization effort, projected a retained earnings ratio of 53 basis points in September 2013. As of May 31, 2013 our retained earnings ratio is already 53 basis points (unaudited), well ahead of the 2011 projections. I wouldn't be surprised if retained earnings didn't come close to 60 basis points by September 2013.
The NCUA also requires corporates to have a Leverage Ratio of 4.00%, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 4.00% and a Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 8.00% at September 30, 2013. As of May 31, 2013, Missouri Corporate's Leverage Ratio is 8.80%, the Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio is 77.5% and the Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio is 80.3%, all well above the regulatory minimums required at September 2013.
In addition, as of April 30, 2013 our base case Net Economic Value ratio is 11.46%, well above the 2.00% minimum. The NEV decline in the up 300 bps scenario is -12.39%, well inside the regulatory maximum of -15.00%. Finally, our asset Weighted Average Life (WAL) is 0.76 years, well below the regulatory maximum of 2.00 years. Missouri Corporate's investment portfolio consists of government agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS), government agency securities, insured bank CDs, and investments in the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.
To those credit unions that provided capital that well exceeded our goal, thank you! To those that are interested in joining a vibrant, successful, safe corporate credit union, please contact Michelle Thompson at email@example.com for more information.

Color Blind Tests
A color blind test is a device your eye doctor uses to determine if you have a color vision deficiency, commonly known as color blindness.
There are two types of color blind tests: screening tests that can detect the presence of a color vision problem, and more detailed quantitative tests that can detect a color vision deficiency and determine the type and severity of color blindness.
Screening Color Blind Tests
The most widely used screening test for color blindness is the Ishihara Color Vision Test. The test is named after Japanese ophthalmologist Shinobu Ishihara (1879-1963), who devised the procedure and first published a description of it in 1917.
The Ishihara Color Vision Test consists of a booklet, each page containing a circular pattern (or "plate") comprising many dots of various colors, brightness and sizes. The seemingly random colored dots are arranged in such a fashion that a person with normal color vision will see a single-digit or two-digit number within the array of dots, while a colorblind person will either be unable to see a number or will see a different number than the one seen by a person with normal color vision.
Eye doctors use Ishihara plates to screen patients for color vision problems. Someone with a red-green color deficiency may not see the red number in this example.
The complete Ishihara Color Vision Test contains 38 plates. Abbreviated versions that contain 14 or 24 plates are more frequently used as screening tests during a comprehensive eye exam.
People being tested generally view the Ishihara plates in normal room lighting while wearing their normal prescription glasses. Because the Ishihara test requires the person being screened to recognize and identify numbers, the test may be less reliable when testing the color vision of very young children.
A term frequently used to describe the color plates of the Ishihara Color Vision Test is "pseudoisochromatic." This alludes to some of the colored dots in the pattern that may at first seem equal ("iso-") in color ("chromatic") with surrounding dots. But this is a false ("pseudo") sameness, and the difference that exists enables a person with normal color vision to detect the "hidden" number within the array of dots.
Since the introduction of the Ishihara Color Vision Test, other companies have developed similar color blindness screening tests using pseudoisochromatic plates.

Quantitative Color Blind Tests
For a more detailed analysis of color blindness and/or a person's ability to accurately perceive colors, a quantitative color blind test is needed. The most popular such test is the Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test.
This test consists of four trays containing many small disks of varying hues. Each tray has a colored reference disk at one end. The person being tested must arrange the other disks within the tray to create a continuum of gradually changing hue.
For accurate results, the Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test should be administered in a viewing booth that simulates natural daylight as closely as possible. Also, the colored disks should be replaced at least every two years to prevent loss of color saturation that could affect outcomes.

- Get affordable coverage for eye exams, eyeglasses, contact lenses and more
Each colored disk is numbered on the bottom to enable scoring the results against a key. The closer the match between the test sequence of caps and the correct sequence, the more accurate the person's color perception is.
In this fashion, the 100 Hue Test can detect whether or not the person being tested is colorblind and also determine the type and severity of his or her color blindness.
An abbreviated version of the 100 Hue test called the Farnsworth-Munsell D15 Test contains only 15 numbered disks of different hues. The D15 test, like the Ishihara Color Vision Test, is for color vision screening purposes only, and cannot quantify the severity of a person's color blindness.
Who Should Take a Color Blind Test?
A color blind test should be given to anyone considering a profession where accurate color perception is essential. Examples include electricians, commercial artists, designers, technicians, and certain manufacturing and marketing personnel.
The effect color blindness has on a person's job performance depends in large part on the color-related requirements of the position and the severity of the person's color vision deficiency.
In many cases, fears about being handicapped by color blindness are unwarranted. Because the condition is present at birth, most colorblind people are unaware of their color vision deficiency and do not find that it interferes significantly with their daily lives.
Though there is no treatment for color blindness, in some cases specially tinted contact lenses may improve a colorblind person's ability to perceive the differences between certain colors.
Online Color Blind Tests
Many color blind tests can be found online. These almost always are variations of the Ishihara screening test and are presented in varying degrees of quality.
Because exact color representation is essential for the accuracy of any color blind test, results from online color vision screening tests are suspect. For the most accurate results, see your eye doctor and take a color blind test administered by a trained professional using standardized testing materials under proper lighting.

clusterflock interviews: Hillman Curtis
Hillman Curtis is a designer, author, and filmmaker whose work has informed, inspired, and influenced a generation of designers interested in the possibilities of new media. His books include Making the Invisible Visible: Process, Inspiration and Practice for the New Media Designer and On Creating Short Films for the Web, a book that was instrumental for me as I set out to film my own documentary. His series of interviews with artists and designers continues to set the standard for video on the web. This interview was conducted via email and I am grateful for his participation.
Can you give us a brief overview of your career? How did you get started, what led you here?
I started designing in '95 or '96. I was a rock musician and had just been dropped by MCA records. I had made a small amount of money from a publishing deal and I took the money and bought a used Mac II. I had made all of the band's posters and flyers and — having come to the obvious conclusion that I was through with the music business — thought I'd have a go at design. I worked my way up to an Art Director position at Macromedia and from there started hillmancurtis.
How did you get interested in video for the web? Was the distribution of video on the web always your intention?
I was a film minor in school, so I've always been into film. The web, along with DV cameras and digital editing software, provided an easy way to experiment with filmmaking and see if I could make any sense of it. So, it was always about the web. I have a weird distaste for the whole business side of filmmaking — festivals and distribution and all that. Which is probably a hangover from my experience with the music business. The web gave me a means of distribution that I could control. And I like the short format, which I think works best online. I like trying to pack meaning into these little moments.
Any thoughts on the convergence of filmmaking and the web?
My guess is the same as everyone else's, which is that it's only a matter of time before first run films have premieres online at the same time as in the theaters. In fact Mark Cuban's film company does that now. But I also believe that theaters are going to be around for a long time, simply because that's where you can have the best film experience.
What's your process for interviewing designers? Is your approach different with each one? What have been the challenges?
It's all about having a conversation and not reading off a list of questions. It takes a bit of faith because there's the chance that the conversation will go nowhere — which actually has happened a couple of times — but it presents you with an opportunity for a story you may not have imagined — one that's far more interesting. Most of the people I've interviewed have been interviewed many times before and will feed you spin if you ask the obvious questions. My job is to get past the spin.
Who are your filmmaking influences? Who are your design influences? Is there an overlap?
My film influences are too numerous to list, but I really like the period in film that starts around '71 and goes through '78. Films like Three Days of the Condor, All that Jazz, Manhattan, Network — and directors like Scorsese, Woody Allen, Coppola were doing really great work. I like Fellini a lot and Bergman, though I have only sampled a small amount of his vast body of work. Peter Weir was a favorite for a while. I also like PT Anderson and Wes Anderson and the Coen brothers.
My influences in design are people like Josef Müller-Brockmann, Neville Brody, Saul Bass, Paula Scher, Michael Bierut, Kyle Cooper, Stefan Sagmeister, David Carson and James Victore. So there's minimal overlap.
I'm a huge photography fan. I don't actually practice that craft, but the influence of photographers like Richard Avedon, Diane Arbus, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Jeff Wall and many others readily finds it's way into my film work.
Tell us about your books. What has the process of writing them been? Has it been different for each one?
I'm happiest about MTIV. That one was written at a wonderful time in my design career. I had recently moved to NYC and started my company. Business was booming and I was discovering the NYC design community — which is supportive and generous and populated with my heroes. I was completely caught up in the craft. I was also relatively new to the wonders of New York. All of that found it's way into the book and, to be honest, the only thing I remember about writing that one is getting up really early, walking to my office as the city woke up, drinking four shots of espresso, and writing like a fiend.
The last book was harder…though I really like it's tone. It's less celebratory and more reflective of the time it was written, which was in the years immediately following 9/11.
I think the process has been the same for all three. I make an outline, hire a good editor, and carve out a few hours in my work day to write.
I love the video on the hillmancurtis home page of people staring into the camera. Can you talk about the inspiration for that? Did you have in mind the idea of portraiture, the long photograph?
Yes…that's all about the portrait work of Thomas Ruff and Richard Avedon. I started the portraits as a means of learning how to work a video camera…not so much the technical aspects like white balance and gain and shutter speed — though that stuff was part of it — but composition, lighting, and working with subjects. This video came out of that.
What advice would you have for a filmmaker wanting to make a space for themselves on the web?
There's a quote in my last book Creating Short Films for the Web by Stanley Kubrick that basically says "get a hold of a camera, some film, and make a movie of any kind at all".

He was name checked last week on the hockey-friendly 30 Rock ("My mother stopped watching the Boston Bruins because she said Derek Sanderson's mustache made him look like he took his sandwiches with a pickle."--Jack Donaghy).Now, it looks like his life story is one step closer to the big screen.Ed Burns, best known for The Brothers McMullen, Saving Private Ryan and guest spots on Entourage, offered up some new details on the gritty Sanderson biopic, tentatively titled Turk, on the StyleBoston site.Burns, one of the film's producers, says the script is "in terrific shape" but probably needs one more draft. "It's a father-son story, a redemption story, a story about friendships," he said.Although Burns revealed that he'll play the "small role" of Sanderson's father, Harold, he said no other casting decisions had been made. But he has an idea of what he wants for the lead."This is a tricky part," Burns said. "Obviously you need someone who is a great actor. But you need someone who has some ability, some sense of the game, is able to get around on skates," he said.Our choice? Liev Schreiber. Yeah, he's already created a classic hockey anti-hero in Goon's Ross Rhea. But he rocks a mean snot mop, and if Chris Evans can play the Human Torch and Captain America, there's obviously a little wiggle room here. So, who do you think should play Sanderson?

News & Media Centre
An exciting exhibition featuring a selection of 20th century travel and tourism posters will open on 25th June (Thursday) at the National Museum Ireland -- Decorative Arts & History, Collins Barracks, Dublin. The exhibition is entitled Come Back to Erin and will run until 23 August 2009. Originally developed by the branch at the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life, Turlough Park, Co. Mayo, this exhibition has now travelled to the National Museum of Ireland – Collins Barracks. Several new acquisitions not seen in the original exhibition will be on show.
It features a selection of strikingly colourful travel and tourism posters spanning the decades from 1908 to the 1970s. This was a period when mass tourism began to develop and also represented a period of great growth in the advertising and marketing industry. Some of the poster images by the Irish artist Paul Henry in particular became best sellers even in the 1920s and became essential images of Ireland and traded internationally.
Dr Séamas Mac Philib, Exhibition Curator at the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life said "The exhibition focuses on some of the prime examples of Irish poster art. Famous Irish tourist locations like Killarney, Connemara, Glendalough appear and Dublin too is well represented. Other images are not place-specific but feature familiar scenes of upland well-proportioned landscapes, big skies, lakes and coasts. Of course there are also stereotypical Irish images of thatched houses, ruins, round towers, jaunting cars and friendly natives. The aim was to create an attractive marketing image, presenting Ireland as happily old fashioned, but which could be visited by the most modern means of travel"
Our Education Department will run a number of engaging events to coincide with the exhibition, including a special event on Saturday 18th July with a talk given by the curator of the exhibition, Séamas Mac Philib and a screening of archival films, courtesy of the Irish Film Institute. All events are fee and no booking is required.
Admission to all exhibitions at the National Museums of Ireland are FREE
For further press information please contact:
Maureen Gaule
Marketing Department, National Museum of Ireland
Tel: 01 – 6486429 Mobile 087 2819420
Initially Irish and British railway companies commissioned the posters. These included CIE and its predecessor Great Southern Railways, and also British Railways and its predecessors. After World War II, airlines such as Aer Lingus, TWA and American Airlines began to issue posters about Ireland as an important part of their marketing campaigns. Irish tourist boards also began to promote Ireland north and south and there is an interesting use of symbolic and stereotypical imagery as well as turn of phrase. This will be of interest to those interested in marketing and advertising, not to mention history and politics.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper today welcomed the news that Their Royal Highnesses The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall have accepted the invitation from the Government of Canada to undertake a Royal Tour in 2014.
"I am pleased that Their Royal Highnesses will be joining us in a few months time as Canada enters a five-year period of significant national celebrations, beginning with the centennial of the outbreak of the Great War and the 150th anniversary of the Charlottetown and Québec City Conferences, which led to the creation of the Dominion of Canada," said the Prime Minister. "Canadians look forward to having Their Royal Highnesses with us for these and other important moments in the history of our country."
The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall will tour Canada in May with stops in Manitoba, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. The programme will be coordinated by the Canadian Secretary to The Queen. A detailed programme for the visit will be released at a later date.

NEWPORT-The weather was frightful but that did not effect the focus of the North Country Falcon girls as they put together a solid opening season effort knocking off the Northfield Marauders 4-2.
The Falcons iced the contest late on Kate Meuiner's second goal of the contest off a well set up dead ball.
NCUHS had a couple good chances early. Senior Cara Worth weaved her way thru the Northfield defense and caromed a shot off the crossbar. Moments later Anna Bingham made a strong rush into Marauder territory getting off a hard shot from the right wing.
Joel Tetreault of West Charleston died when the truck he was driving rolled over in Coventry Tuesday night. State police say that Tetreault, 57, was driving his 2002 GMC pickup south on Pine Hill at around 10 p.m. The truck left the roadway, went down a small embankment, and then went down a second embankment, which caused the truck to roll. Tetreault was thrown from the truck and pinned under the vehicle. The Newport City Fire Department assisted on the scene. The crash remains under investigation.
NEWPORT CITY – Judge Robert Bent Tuesday sentenced William Debonville, 43 of Island Pond, to serve one to three years in prison for the sale of cocaine. He was also assessed $141 in fees. Two felony charges for the sale of a depressant/stimulant/narcotic were dismissed by the state.
Newport City Police Officer Seth DiSanto wrote in an affidavit that the Vermont Drug Task Force, where DiSanto serves as a detective, launched an investigation of the distribution of narcotics in the Orleans County area during the week of Jan. 20, 2010.
BRIGHTON - At the Brighton Selectboard meeting on Tuesday evening, the issue of abandoned "eyesores" and cluttered properties, which may be creating possible public hazards, drew a small crowd that turned out to ask the selectboard to take some action. The town health officer held the floor for the first part of the meeting. He had reports on several inspections he had done recently at the request of the board.
WATERBURY, VT - The Vermont Electric Company (VELCO) has filed for reconsideration of the Jurisdictional Opinion (JO) issued by the District 7 Environmental Commission.
Kirstin Sultan, the District 7 Coordinator, issued the JO on August 8. It states that the existing telecommunications towers located on Nelson Hill in Derby need Act 250 permits. However no one seems to know when the towers were built. Neighbors provided conflicting reports and USDA photos do not identify the year the photos were taken.

Surgeon Testimonial
Jeffrey Baker
Dr. Baker has been fantastic! He took the time to answer every question I had before and after surgery. We went over the risks of surgery in detail (scary, but necessary). He even gives out his pager number in case you have problems after surgery.rnrnHe really emphasizes aftercare with the Unity Bariatric Center for the first year and then annual appointments with him.rnrnI would rate him 10+ for both surgical competence and bedside manner. Truly a great man.

The former woman MP of Mpigi district remained ill until she was flown to Nairobi hospital this week for further treatment.

8-Months-Pregnant Lily Allen Flaunts Baby Bump
Celebrity Moms Oct. 31, 2011 AT 4:58PM
Lily Allen has something to "Smile" about this Halloween.
The pregnant singer posted a glowing photo of herself carving a pumpkin on Twitter Sunday. "Me, bump and pumpkin," she wrote. "I did it last night during X Factor."
PHOTOS: Celeb kids' cutest Halloween costumes
Though she received multiple compliments for her handiwork, Allen, 26, refused to take credit for the intricate design. "OK, so I did use a stencil," she admitted. "But it's still pretty cool, no?"
PHOTOS: Stars who struggled to conceive
Due in November, this will be the first child for the British singer and business owner Sam Cooper. The two wed in June at St. James the Great church in Glocestershire, England.

I'd always enjoyed taking snapshots as a child, and when the announcement was made one day at middle-school that they were going to be in need of a photographer, I jumped at the chance. Not as a way to express myself creatively, or contribute something to the… Read more »
Models' Photo Choices vs. Yours
According to several in the About Photography FB group, I'm not the only one who experiences this. Models will often select, as their favorite shots, something I wouldn't have picked myself. This does happen with clients, too. Once in awhile, a subject and I will share an aesthetic sense and she'll surprise me. A kindred… Read more »
Are Photo Competitions a Good Idea?
I've always thought of myself as a competitive person. No, I'm not the kind of guy who turns everything into a race or gets bitter if I don't win a board game. For me, the competition has to at least be quantifiable to have a chance at being meaningful. There has to be a well-defined… Read more »
What You Like About Black and White Photography
Last weekend, the theme in our Facebook group was "Monochrome." I asked our members to comment about their feelings on Black and White photography. Here are a few of their responses: I love the timelessness of B&W. It strips away any pretense and you're left with the raw subject, in all its glory. I am… Read more »

Big data is mostly a buzzword created by analysts and the press with the most literal examples of big data being restricted to machine data, SAS CEO Jim Goodnight has claimed.
Goodnight made the comments during the opening keynote of his organisation's Premier Business Leadership Series 2013 conference in Orlando, Florida.
"Most of our customers don't have big data, it's not that big," he said in response to a question posed during an on-stage Q&A hosted by Walter Isaacson, president and CEO of the Aspen Institute - and the author of a Steve Jobs biography.
Before introducing Goodnight, Isaacson told the audience the SAS CEO had all of the positive attributes of Steve Jobs, but without the slightly darker side the late Apple boss had sometimes displayed.
Goodnight argued that "big data" is just another buzzword following on from other recent trends in the IT industry, even suggesting that analysts promote them in order to generate business.
"The term big data is being used today because computer analysts and journalists got tired of writing about cloud computing," he said.
"Before cloud computing it was data warehousing or 'software as a service'. There's a new buzzword every two years and the computer analysts come out with these things so that they will have something to consult about."
For Goodnight, big data is really about machine data which involves millions of transactions per hour and he gave the audience his views on what he believes big data actually is.
"Really big data is what we see machines are creating with sensors everywhere; all over the electric grid, all over the railroad tracks across the country, there are sensors that are measuring movements of trains.
"That's where really big data is coming from; it is all of the machine generated data and logging information, which has moved from one machine or router to another," Goodnight continued, adding: "All of that is captured and there are literally millions of these transactions an hour."
When asked what should be the next buzzword for the computing industry, Goodnight responded with the rather un-snappy "I think they should go with high performance analytics," drawing chuckles from the audience.
"It's mainly because of the fact that data is just going to get bigger and bigger," he continued when drawn to explain why he thinks it'll be the next big thing.
"There are a lot of platforms for data out there which are being generated and a lot of high performance capability and it needs to be analysed," he added.

Back in the 1950s and 1960s, it was not uncommon for thousands of people to jam McCoy Stadium for the Tolman-SRA Thanksgiving Game. In the 1970s, the R.I. Interscholastic League engineered a playoff system that evolved from two teams participating from each division to four in the current era (with eight in the 16-team Division II).
One of the effects of these playoffs has been the diminished appeal of Thanksgiving games to local football fans. When the Tolman-SRA rivalry died 10 years ago, crowds had fallen to less than 1,000 per game. The Shea-Tolman rivalry draws about half that many.
Here's a scouting report from River Avenue Blues on Mason Williams, who lived in Pawtucket until he was 13 before moving to Florida, where he became a star baseball player drafted in the fourth round last June by the New York Yankees:
Rhode Island's mixed martial arts community lost one of its premier figures and founding fathers early Monday morning when Pawtucket native Manny Neves passed away. He was 45.
Neves wore many hats in the fight business. He was an MMA fighter, Muay Thai fighter, and kickboxer. He was a trainer, a gym owner, and during the 2000s (when MMA shows weren't allowed in Rhode Island), a promoter of several Massachusetts events.
Lincoln High football coach Dave Waycott confirmed on Friday morning that his team's Division III semifinal-round playoff game against the Moses Brown School will take place at Brown University's Berylson Field (the practice field for the Bears' football team) at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 30.
The field, which is part of the Erickson Athletic Complex, is located near the university's baseball and soccer fields.
Just got off the phone with East Providence native Davey Lopes, a solid baseball man as any you'll come across. After a 10-minute discussion about the merits of free agent outfielders Jayson Werth and Carl Crawford, I asked Lopes if he sees himself coaching next year. Earlier this month the Phillies announced that Lopes would not be returning as the club's first base coach in 2011.
"I think if you wait a day or two you'll get that answer," said Lopes, a hearty laugh following the response that seems to suggest the La Salle Academy graduate is close to landing a job.
Tolman AD John Scanlon confirms the Tolman-St. Raphael D-II playoff game on Tuesday, Nov. 30, will be played at Shea High's Max Read field at 7 p.m.
See details in Thursday's Times.
I did a story yesterday talking about how playoff-bound football teams like Woonsocket and Tolman have two games to prepare for right now -- the holiday tilt and then the Nov. 30 D-II semifinals five days later.
Woonsocket coach Carnell Henderson explained to me how his coaching staff will approach the problem. They will prepare the players for the holiday game against Cumberland. The coaching staff will work overtime, looking at films of playoff foe Chariho while also getting ready for Cumberland.
After watching Michael Vick throw for 330 yards and 4 TDs last night, most of them in the first half, and run for 80 more, while leading Philadelphia to a 59-28 victory over Washington, the radio talking heads today are beating to death Vick's "comeback" from prison, still wondering if he deserves a second chance.
Monday's announcement that Ryne Sandberg was hired as the new manager of Lehigh Valley, the Triple-A affiliate of the Phillies, signifies more than just a homecoming for the Hall of Fame second baseman. It means the Red Sox have one less candidate to consider for the managerial opening in Pawtucket.
As my colleague Eric Benevides reports on the previous blog entry, St. Raphael Academy advanced to the Division II semifinals with a crazy 56-50 victory over Johnston on Saturday night.
This means the Saints get a rematch with unbeaten Tolman on Tuesday, Nov. 30, in the Division II semifinals. Woonsocket visits Chariho in the other matchup.
In a royal shootout that will be talked about for years to come, the St. Raphael Academy football posted an edge-of-your-seats 56-50 overtime victory over Johnston High in their Division II quarterfinal-round game on Saturday night in Johnston.
This game featured nearly 1,000 yards of offense, a wonderful game by SRA quarterback Trevor Vasey, who tossed a career-high five touchdown passes, and a strong defensive standout by the Saints in overtime.
I didn't get to see any football games last night because somebody has to put the sports section together. But the scores were interesting. Woonsocket hammered Central 34-14 and Tolman squeaked by Westerly, 6-0. All you can say, at first glance, is Tolman probably drew the tougher opponent in the quarterfinals.
Joe McParlin, who passed away at the age of 54 earlier this week, will be missed in so many places, including on the ball fields and basketball courts of Pawtucket. In all my years at The Times, I never met a father who cared more about his family than Joe. He worked at The Times for awhile and would bring his young son Michael up to the sports desk occasionally, giving me the latest information on Mike's martial arts accomplishments. Michael was always the most polite of kids, even at the age of 7. Joe brought his sons (Brian and Kyle came along later) up the right way. Respect your elders.
Great column today by my old pal Bill Reynolds over there at the ProJo on how the Boston Celtics used to play games at the R.I. Auditorium back in the 1950s. They even had doubleheaders, meaning four of the eight teams that then comprised the NBA were in Rhode Island at the same time.
ESPN is telling us the Minnesota Vikings released Randy Moss today, less than a month after they gave New England a third-round draft choice for the future Hallof Famer.
Speculation is Randy sealed his fate by telling the world how much he loved the Patriots before and after yesterday's game. Minnesota coach Brad Childress is coming off a tough week, after failing to challenge a disputed TD in last week's loss to Green Bay, and then having to baby-sit Bret Favre all week. So when Moss came off the field after meeting with all of his Patriots friends, Childress must have been seething.
If today turns out to be the end of Bret Favre's 292-game starting streak at QB, then the guy went out the only way he could have. Injured. The Patriots' Myron Pryor almost broke his jaw with a clean sack in the fourth quarter today. Favre went off on a golf cart, a trainer holding a ice pack to his jaw. He received 10 stitches under his chin after the game.
Better to go out injured than suspended by the commissioner for off-the-field issues.
Got to see Tolman High's unbeaten Division II football team play Ponaganset on Friday night. This is really a fun group to watch play. As complex and interesting as the offense is, it's the defense that really serves as the spine of the team. The players are all fast and aggressive and fly to the football. They give up long drives grudgingly and touchdowns only rarely. Ponaganset got one late in Friday night's game, a 26-10 Tiger victory.
The Chieftains have a very well-balanced offense and feature some size on the offensive line that seemed to give Tolman some trouble as the game wore on.
Now that the San Francisco Giants are halfway home to winning their first World Series since moving to the West Coast in 1958, it's time to talk MVP.
Regardless how the rest of the series turns out, it's hands-down Bengie Molina.
PawSox Vice President Lou Schwechheimer sent me an email Wednesday mentioning two former PawSox players who are in the 2010 WorldSeries. Lou points out that these two fellows were two of late owner Ben Mondor's all-time favorites.
Here's a look at the Pawtucket connection to the World Series.
1.) Texas outfielder David Murphy went from Pawtucket to the Rangers in 2007 in the infamous Eric Gagne deal. Murphy has become an effective fourth outfielder for Texas. He's a sweet-swinging lefthanded hitter who won't start in Games 1 and 2 because Texas must use DH Vladdy Guerrero in right field.

There's probably a vast majority of you thinking that how in God's name can the Celtics follow up defeating highly gifted/highly flawed Miami Heat by losing to the LeBron-less Cavaliers.
This Celtics team was not constructed with back-to-back nights in mind. Too many members of the Green have had their odometers stretched to the max, meaning Boston will spend much of the season picking and choosing when to turn it on and when to back off.

Ruth Milkman joins the Graduate Center as professor of sociology and associate director of the Joseph S. Murphy Institute for Worker Education and Labor Studies. With a current research focus on the sociology of labor, Milkman has also published extensively on gender and work. Her prizewinning book Gender at Work: The Dynamics of Job Segregation by Sex during World War II (Illinois, 1987) is still widely read and cited, and is considered a classic work in both women's labor history and the sociology of gender. Milkman also published a study of U.S. auto workers, Farewell to the Factory (California, 1997). Her most recent book is L.A. Story: Immigrant Workers and the Future of the U.S. Labor Movement (Russell Sage Foundation, 2006) which has been widely discussed in the academic community, as well as the labor movement, for its account of immigrant organizing and the conditions under which union revitalization occurs. Collaborating with Rutgers economist Eileen Appelbaum, Milkman is currently at work on a study of paid family leave and is also part of a large project surveying labor law violations in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York. After more than twenty years at the University of California, Los Angeles, where she taught sociology and directed the Institute for Research on Labor and Employment from 2001 to 2008, Milkman returns to the Graduate Center, where she began her distinguished career. She holds a Ph.D. in sociology from the University of California, Berkeley.

CONYERS -- The Clayton State University master of business administration program, which operates partly in Rockdale County, has another new director.
It's been a year since the school appointed Michael Tidwell, formerly assistant dean of external relations and graduate programs in the school of business at Clayton State, to the director position to replace outgoing director Michael Deis, who served in that position since it started in 2007.
Now, Judith Ogden will serve as the director, as Tidwell has left the position.
"It is an exciting opportunity, and a great honor," said Ogden. "I honestly did not consider applying for the position, but I received so much support and encouragement from the School of Business faculty, that I thought I would take a chance. Now I am delighted that I did."
Ogden is an associate professor of business law and has been on the faculty at Clayton State since 2004. She has a bachelor of science in social studies and doctor of law from Duquesne University, a master of science in taxation from Robert Morris University and a master of law in dispute resolution from Pepperdine University.
Ogden is enthusiastic about the past success of the MBA program.
"It is incredible how successful the program has been and how much it has grown in three short years," she said. "It has been named one of the top MBA programs in Atlanta by the Atlanta Business Chronicle and the American Business Journal, and is offering courses at three different locations: Peachtree City, Conyers and Morrow."
Just one semester after its official rollout, Clayton State's East Metro Atlanta MBA program at the Rockdale Career Academy in Conyers is preparing for the start of its first full academic year.
Having started with a cohort of 19 students in May, the East Metro program is a 20-month, five semester program.
"We are delighted to have these students as part of the Clayton State family," Ogden said. "They bring so much to our MBA program, and provide an opportunity for us to spread out into the communities. Clayton State is really becoming the university of choice for the southern Atlanta metropolitan area."
The cohort is a lock-step program -- meaning that all members of the group start together and take the same courses. A new cohort for RCA already is in the works to start in May 2011, as Clayton State rotates beginning new cohorts among its three locations in Rockdale, Morrow and Peachtree City.
The Rockdale cohort already has completed courses in Communication and Leadership, Operations and Supply Chain and Quantitative Methods. This fall, the students will take Economics and Decision Making Under Uncertainty. The 20-month program will finish in December 2011, Ogden said.
She is looking forward to the future of the program as a whole.
"I think the program can only continue to grow in terms of students, programs and international and community connections," she said. "I would like to see the program expand in terms of course offerings and specialties, and in terms of more international and community opportunities. I would also like to involve our alumni, who have been very supportive."
Individuals interested in applying for the May 2011 cohort at the Rockdale Career Academy should contact Michelle Terrell by e-mailing her at email@example.com or calling 678-466-4520.
A unit of the University System of Georgia, Clayton State University is a comprehensive metropolitan university located 15 miles southeast of downtown Atlanta. More information is available at www.clayton.edu.
