|Rev. Tara Spuhler McCabe
announces resignation
McCabe's fitness to serve the Church was challenged by anti-gay conservatives when they published an article before the General Assembly that included reference to a same-gender wedding license she had signed in Washington, D.C. McCabe told the Assembly today in her resignation statement that "the amount of conversation in person and comments online indicate that my confirmation touched a nerve."
"We grieve that these personal attacks did not stop with that first article. Rather, they escalated in person and online. It is a sad day for the Presbyterian Church (USA) when some within it resort to nothing less than ad hominem attacks and cyber-bullying. This is a sad day for Christianity. This is a sad day for civility," said Michael J. Adee, Executive Director.
During the question-and-answer session during the moderatorial election Saturday night, Rev. Neal Presa acknowledged that he and McCabe disagreed on same-gender marriage but their friendship outweighed their disagreement. When Presa placed McCabe's name in nomination as Vice-Moderator on Sunday, questions about McCabe were raised on the floor. Her confirmation was approved by a 55-44 percent vote.
Of McCabe's resignation and this situation, Moderator Rev. Neal Presa said today, "It is clear that there are parties within the church who would not let her split confirmation vote rest, who questioned her integrity and even the authenticity and veracity of our eleven-and-a-half year friendship. I absorbed those attacks and still stand by her while this pernicious poison reared its ugly head."
We believe her statement before this Assembly and the whole Church is both a teaching moment and a wake up call. We hope and pray that the leadership of the Presbyterian Church (USA) will not allow such bullying to continue. It is time to draw a line against such un-Christian attitudes, speech and action.
Rev. McCabe, we stand with you. We give thanks to God for you. We certainly respect the decision you've made to step down from serving as Vice Moderator and regret the circumstances around it. Rev. McCabe, please know that you will always be Vice Moderator in our hearts. We are holding you and your family in our thoughts and prayers as together we're building a Church that reflects God's heart.
Watch Rev. Tara Spuhler McCabe's Resignation at Minute 8:00

Two weekends ago I did the iron hill challenge race. I set my bike up with my new continental mountain kings 2.4"… I set the rear up tubeless… they are nice tires… sizing is a little off more like a 2.25 but they are tall extenuating the 29er feel. Rolling over and absorbing bumps noticeably better than the maxis ingnitors that I was running before (especially in messy rock gardens)… they run a little sketchy on the road being tall with large nobs but seeing as they are mountain bike tires and they weren't meant to ride on the road I suppose I cant complain about that. (even though I just did)
Ok back to the race… it was a hot day 90 something degrees and course was super flat and fast… my new big aggressive tires didn't suit this course but I'm not one to buy and switch out tires to suit particular races. I think people who do have a mild case of OCD.
I didn't start very strong but I was slowly passing people and expecting to real in more as the heat got to people. A lap and a half in I got a flat… in the rear.. the one I was riding tubeless…I could hear the air leaking out and the sealant wasn't doing the trick so I put a tube in… it took me a while to fix it and by the time I did I pretty much gave up on a respectable placing… I rode the rest of the race with teammate Jay Dodge (who was riding strong, winning the masters men).
I haven't looked yet to see what the issue was with the tire… I've done 6 races so far and have had flats during 3 of them…
I heard Greg lemon would stop and let the air out of his tires when he was doing bad during races… with the high frequency of flats I imagine people are thinking I am pulling a Greg lemon… I'm not but I am getting so many flats that it seem unbelievable to me and probably others… hopefully I can figure out away to avoid flats in the future so I can regain my reputation as a 5th -10 th place finisher (on a good day).

Real Salt Lake's Nick Rimando, Kyle Beckerman, Tony Beltran and the rest of the U.S. national team were crowned CONCACAF Gold Cup champs on Sunday, beating Panama 1-0 in the tournament final at Soldier Field.
Rimando went on a bit of an Instagram spree after the match, posting a bevy of pictures from the postgame locker room celebration. Check 'em out below:

Rimando, Beckerman and Beltran are all traveling to Kansas City on Monday ahead of Wednesday's MLS AT&T All-Star Game against Italian side AS Roma. The RSL trio will return to the Claret-and-Cobalt on Thursday ahead of Saturday's decisive 2013 Rocky Mountain Cup Presented by Mark Miller Subaru match at the rival Colorado Rapids.
18-year-old forward Benji Lopez signed a Homegrown contract with RSL last week. His welcome to the team? This unicorn mohawk, courtesy of midfielder Sebastian "Ruffio" Velasquez.

Real Salt Lake will face off against former Claret-and-Cobalt players Fabian Espindola, Jamison Olave and Jonny Steele for the first time this Saturday, when RSL will take on the trio's New York Red Bulls at 5:00 p.m. MT at Red Bull Arena on ABC 4.
RSL Head Coach Jason Kreis, defender Nat Borchers and midfielder Ned Grabavoy have already shared their thoughts on going up against the former RSL men. On Thursday, Espindola and Steele spoke to NewYorkRedBulls.com about facing off against their former team.
"It's going to be special," Espindola said. "I know that they're a great team. They're going to play and be a tough team to beat."
"Everything about Real Salt Lake was good for me," he continued. "I have a lot of good things from my time there and I'm grateful for that team."
Steele - who made his MLS debut as a member of RSL against the Red Bulls on March 17, 2012 - was also complimentary of the Claret-and-Cobalt.
"Salt Lake is a small franchise but they do things right and things are professional," he said. "All around they've got great coaches and they've been succesful."
Espindola is particularly looking forward to the on-field battle between Olave and RSL maestro Javier Morales on Saturday.
"I was just joking with [Olave] about how I'm going to laugh when I watch him and [Javier Morales] fighting," he said. "That's going to be funny.
- The last couple of weeks have been pretty hectic after getting my first games. A lot of my friends that I haven't talked to in a while have been reaching out to me, I had my parents fly in last minute for the Sporting KC game, my in-laws came in, so it's been pretty hectic, but it's been fun too. I didn't want to go the whole season and not feel like I was a part of the team and didn't contribute in any way, so to get the opportunity to contribute is something that I've really appreciated.
- After I made my debut in the Dallas game it was pretty wild. Leading up to Kansas City I was just doing my best to kind of focus. I was on edge a little bit all week and I think I got my wife pretty annoyed with me, but it's starting to settle in. This week I definitely feel a lot more comfortable; I'm not on pins and needles this week the way I was last week.
- It was tough not getting any games for four or five months and then getting thrown in there. I mean it still is tough; I have big shoes to fill with Nick and Josh. It's kind of funny because I hadn't been playing much in Reserve games either, so I hadn't really gotten many minutes at all and just to get my first 90 minutes with RSL against a MLS team in a game where its first-place vs. first-place, sold-out stadium, and then to have everything go the way it did and the end to happen the way it did, I feel like I experienced at least five months worth of emotion in about 90 minutes.
- While it's definitely been pretty crazy, I'm just appreciative that the staff trusts me enough to throw me into that situation. To be able to contribute to the team in a positive manner – which I feel like I've done so far – is something I've really, really appreciated.
- The support from the fans has definitely been incredible. I think coming in at Dallas and making a great save probably had something to do with that, because I can't imagine the expectations were that high originally. But the team support as well has been really what has been helping me get through this. Nick has been reaching out to me a bunch, telling me to keep calm and play my game. Josh has been really supportive as well, which is obviously tough in his situation. And all the teammates have really shown a lot of faith in me. That they feel comfortable with me back there means everything. The support from really the whole RSL family has been pretty incredible, actually.
- Where I was in preseason and where I am now I think that I'm such a better 'keeper. A lot of that is a credit to Nick and Josh, just watching them train, picking their brains every chance I can. Obviously working with [Goalkeeper Coach Jeff Cassar] has been great as well, but to be able to see these two guys up close and personal every day for five months, I've learned so much from them.
- We're obviously in a pretty weird goalie situation here with four goalies on the roster. Josh has been a starter in this league for a long time, Nick is obviously the best goalie in the league and then there's Lalo and I, so the goalkeeper situation I think had a chance to be pretty awkward and unsupportive because everyone's competing for a certain spot. Thankfully, it's been the opposite of that and I think that speaks really highly to the type of people that Nick and Josh both are.
- Honestly, coming out of college, I thought not making RSL and going to the minors was a huge setback. You don't really know how hard it is to make it to this level right out of school. I was first-team All-American my junior year, I went overseas a couple of times and did really well, so I thought things were going to come pretty easy, to be honest and to go down to the minors right away and get drafted in the Supplemental Draft and not taken on the first day was a huge wakeup call. But it was a blessing in disguise. I went down to the Tampa Bay Rowdies and got 50+ games and gained a ton of experience. Obviously I got to stay in my hometown for two extra years, and that was awesome – playing professional soccer in your hometown, it doesn't really get any better than that. So it was huge, I owe the NASL and the Rowdies a lot. Being able to get those games, playing one or two games every week for eight months was huge for my experience and I really think that it helped me get to the point I am now, even if just in the fact that I feel comfortable in the net in a game situation. The game Saturday was probably my 60th career professional game including the NASL; it's a lot different when you're playing in your 60th compared to if that was my first start as a pro.
- I'm a huge Tampa Bay sports fan, so any chance I get I'm watching those teams in action. I have a Slingbox hooked up to the TV in my parents' house, so I've been watching a lot of Rays baseball. I'm also spending a lot of time taking my dog to different trails and things like that. I'm trying to get a little bit of Utah life, the whole outdoors life, see what that's like. Off the field, I just spend a lot of time with my wife. When the guys are getting together, I hang out with the guys, a lot of the single guys, so I'm sure my wife appreciates that. But I've just been trying to dive into Utah and getting used to how life is out here.
- I listen to all kinds of music; really it depends on my mood. But I am a country fan and I was 100 percent planning on going to go the Jason Aldean concert this weekend at Rio Tinto Stadium. I went to that concert actually twice in Tampa and had a great time. Obviously I'd rather be in New York with the team, though, and I'm happy I'll be there this Saturday. But when I saw Jason Aldean coming and that we were away I was pretty excited about getting the chance to see him again. The plan is for my wife to go and take some videos for me, though.
It's one of the best features on MLSsoccer.com: Simon Borg takes a look at controversial refereeing decisions from the weekend and breaks them down, as only he can.
This week's edition is - unsurprisingly - heavy on decisions from Real Salt Lake's tough 2-1 loss to Sporting Kansas City on Saturday. Mr. Borg offers his opinion on the calls and RSL Head Coach Jason Kreis' assesment of them. Give it a watch above.
The Real Salt Lake-Arizona Academy U-16's won the U.S. Soccer Developmental Academy Championship on Saturday, defeating Dallas-based Solar Chelsea 4-2 to take home RSL-AZ's first title.
After the match, the players celebrated on the field by signing the "Believe" anthem. Video above.
What could possibly be better than Real Salt Lake's first ever win on Texas soil?
How about a behind the scenes video of that trip, directed and shot by the man with the best rat-tail in MLS, RSL midfielder Sebastian Velasquez.
Check out "Road Trip with Sebastian" above. You won't regret it.
Interesting video from MLSsoccer.com's Greg Lalas and Josh Whisenhunt on Real Salt Lake's Saturday home match against Sporting Kansas City.
Greg and Josh debate whether or not RSL-SKC is a MLS Cup Preview; Greg says it is, Josh picks Kansas City to make it, but bails on RSL. Greg's clearly the smarter of the pair.
Saturday's match will kickoff at 8:00 p.m. at Rio Tinto Stadium. Tickets are going fast; click here to get yours now.
U.S. manager Jurgen Klinsmann made four swaps in his CONCACAF Gold Cup squad on Wednesday, bringing in Sporting Kansas City defender Matt Besler, LA defender Omar Gonzalez, San Jose forward Alan Gordon and Seattle forward Eddie Johnson and sending home Houston's Corey Ashe, Philadelphia's Jack McInerney and ex-MLS players Herculez Gomez and Oguchi Onyewu.
Besler's call-up means the Sporting Kansas City defender will miss Saturday's RSL-SKC match at Rio Tinto Stadium. His absence will be a big one; the 2012 MLS Defender of the Year is Sporting's best defender, playing a crucial role in organizing SKC's back four, distributing well, posing an offensive threat on set pieces and locking down opposing strikers.
A very limited number of tickets are still available to Saturday's 8:00 p.m. match, which will be followed by a postgame fireworks display in celebration of Pioneer Day. Click here to get yours.
Real Salt Lake defender Tony Beltran talked with U.S. Soccer about his opportunity with the U.S. national team in the Gold Cup. It's a nice piece; check it out above.
Beltran and RSL teammates Kyle Beckerman, Nick Rimando and the U.S. return to action tomorrow night, when they'll take on Claret-and-Cobalt forward Alvaro Saborio and Costa Rica in Group C's deciding match.

Teen killed in Vermont crashApril 29,2013ENOSBURG — A standout high school basketball player in Vermont has died following a two-vehicle collision.
Police said 17-year-old Brandon Gleason of Enosburg was a front passenger in a Jeep when it collided with a pickup Friday night on Route 105 in Enosburg.

Well a New Year and Chihayafuru is back, and so is Arata. While I am disappointed that Chihaya self-destructed during the team portion of the tournament, I can't really blame her. I don't think for a minute that the likely reigning Queen got to her when going up the steps. In fact it had little to do with people unless you count the Empress being a heretic. You see they simply prayed at the wrong temple to false gods. Had they converted to Jodo Shinsu Buddhism their faith would have given the power over their enemies who oppose the will of heaven, instead Chihaya gets crushed by the weight of Taichi's sins. Such is life for a non-believer when you listen to an old bag who is a glory chasing hag. If nothing else plenty of Fukui-ben.
As expected as a team they did not get far although they did not get bounced in the first round when Taichi struggled to get Chihaya off the field. While I am sure every Taichi apologist out there is in agreement that Chihaya is fat, I hope they apply Taichi's habits and start calling all women who aren't skeletor, fat. I would totally pay to see the beat down such an ingrate would get. Still it is not that Chihaya is fat, it's that Taichi is weaksauce and as in much of his life can barely carry his own weight let alone carry Chihaya, so much for the dashing "athletic" Taichi, so much for Taichi putting Chihaya on his back and carrying her to the promise land. Yet this is all the more humorous because Chihaya could and DID carry Kana-chan a great distance to her bedroom. I am saddened by this pointless emphasis on beauty and desirable weight. Were Taichi a real man he would never have allowed himself to be so out of shape as to struggle to help a woman to the door, but in end he blames Chihaya for his inability to carry her. Chihaya is fine the way she is I would personally shoot Empress in the face given the chance. How dare she insist that Chihaya is only pretty when she doesn't talk and just sits there like a piece of furniture?
At any rate Taichi went where he belonged, off screen. Not only does Sudo return to be Chihaya's arch rival and claim a more important rank in Chihaya's heart and mind, we get the whole deal on what lead to Arata quitting karuta. I just want to say everyone who got on Arata's case kicking cards boy do you all look petty and moronic. As if being a rich boy running around half-heartedly doing things and coasting on talent was such HARD TIME. Then again being there family is an outmoded concept and living selfishly is the way to go in modern era… So in the end Arata had it harder than Taichi, while Taichi was gallivanting around with Miss Girlfriend, Arata had to watch his Grandpa die a slow and painful death. It was a most cruel fate that Grandpa first got paralyzed and then senile to the point he could no longer consistently identify objects, feed himself, or recognize his family.
Arata was always the poorer of the three and not only did his family remain poor their finances declined even further as Arata no longer could travel by car. The medical bills must have been crushing, and the slow mental decline of Grandpa must have been devastating. Arata basically had no social life because he was his Grandpa's aid, so much for the Taichi idolator propaganda where Arata simply went into a hole and cried. Arata knew he was getting left behind, and he did make an effort to keep in touch but in the end reality and death took over and Arata fell behind. Still Arata being a smart kid did not waste his screen time crying "woe is me." Instead Arata took the mantle that he was born to have and he decided that he would carry on his Grandfather's karuta style. Arata went further by giving Chihaya a get well gift and promised to face her in the singles match just like Chihaya had dreamed for all these years. All in all Arata was efficient in using his screen time. Sadly that girl who passed Chihaya by at the temple to the False Gods of the Empress will have other ideas. I have this funny feeling that this dark haired bishoujo is the reigning Queen and will take note of Chihaya, who had bested Sudo of Hokuo.
I really like how Nishida pried Retro-kun's state secrets book away from Taichi and was the one making all the big decisions, and the biggest surprise yet is that Desk-kun finally realized that he wasn't going to be a master in this life or the next and took on the status of role player. Bravo Desk-kun you finally found your niche and realized that if Zeus wanted you to be a champion he would have miracle it to you by now. Still a step in right direction and a much better use of screen time than Taichi wasting his with "Chihaya is fat" comment. I am glad Sudo is coming back, and while I understand how Sudo is mad about Chihaya not playing, she's not there yet and I am sure that after this Chihaya will have Michael Jordan-esque Flu game. Nevertheless a bad sign for Taichi in the Chihaya sweepstakes for unlike Taichi and Arata, Sudo is unafraid to be direct and he does play at Chihaya's level.
Looking forward to the singles matches, I expect Nishida to put up a good showing and Taichi to not last long, while Chihaya runs into the Queen. Should be interesting to see who this Queen really is, and how Arata is going to make his presence felt.
Hana's thoughts: On falling
I missed Chihaya and co. during the break last week more than I thought I would. Though, not as much as I missed Arata. Finally, we get details surrounding his grandfather's demise and Arata's withdrawal. Finally, and heartbreakingly. Firstly, let's focus on Chihaya and the Scoobies. Let's face it, for a club that hasn't been around long, they've had a pretty smooth ride. Thus, the arrival at Omi Jingu, Chihaya's prayers to do well, and her brush with the possible reigning 'Queen', all pointed towards another eventful, but plucky group victory… Perhaps, it might've been more interesting if Chihaya had simply 'choked', momentarily crushed by the pressure, which would have shown us a different side to her as a Karuta player. (Un)fortunately, she has the pretty air-tight excuse of being genuinely ill. Secondly, as if that wasn't frustrating enough, we are torn away from Chihaya at her most vulnerable… to see Arata at his. Yep, it was as satisfying as it was gut-wrenching. Satisfying that we finally see the details behind Arata's grandfather's passing and Arata's behaviour surrounding his final tourney, and of course gut-wrenching in the realistic, unsentimental way that his grandpa's decline and behaviour was portrayed. The terrible irony of the former Master succumbing to a physically and mentally degenerative illness was hard to watch, but sensitively portrayed, I thought. However, at least Arata (though perhaps, predictably, given the genre) can now be seen as blameless in his part in what he thought was the neglect of his grandfather; we now know that he was practically ordered to attend the tourney and wouldn't have gone otherwise. Unsurprising, but what was inspired, was the way the two stories (Chihaya's meltdown and Arata's back-story) were interspersed to convey some much needed exposition and to continue to hike up the tension. Almost as if Chihaya's powerful, childlike sobbing also symbolised the tears that Arata was unable to pour out. A dramatic, but cathartic and moving episode.

Denver - United States
A historian once termed Denver the "turnstile city." Travelers come in, travelers go out. Some come for the skiing, others show up to call the city home. Over the past few years the business crowd has been enticed by the region's bustling economy, culture and recreational attractions. An addition to the convention center is in the works. New hotels preparing to open, or in the planning stages, will add to the 17,000 rooms already available. Many hotels occupy three prime areas: downtown, the Denver Tech Center (DTC) and the area around Denver International Airport (DIA). Comfortable lodging can easily be found in every nook and cranny of the city. Accommodations range from the glorious to the unassuming as do the prices, but most provide a good night's sleep at a fair price. If you prefer the provincial charm of a bed-and-breakfast, Denver has some of the best in the western region. Usually located in elegant Victorian mansions, they provide many of the modern conveniences of a hotel with a dash of history.
The majority of business travelers heading to the city usually wind up staying in one of downtown's array of notable and contemporary hotels. The convention center is propped in the heart of the district and many of the region's corporate movers and shakers headquarter in the towers populating the skyline. In other areas, especially on the fringes of the metroplex, one might feel isolated without a vehicle, but downtown offers easy access to shopping, dining and the city's popular attractions. Almost every hotel in downtown underwent extensive renovation in 1997, prior to the G7 Summit, so expect the latest in luxurious lodging.
The Brown Palace is the pride of downtown. Built in 1892, this Victorian brown brick building is a classic interpretation of Italian Renaissance design. Every president since Teddy Roosevelt, with the exception of Jimmy Carter, has enjoyed pampering in these posh rooms. Even The Beatles and Elvis Presley slept here. Hotel Monaco is the new kid in town but has quickly carved a niche with the businesses class with impeccable service and homey rooms; it has also developed a reputation as the place for romantic weekend getaways. The Magnolia Hotel, in the restored American Bank Building, offers extended stay visits in one- and two-bedroom suites along spirited 17th Avenue (a.k.a "Wall Street of the Rockies"). If you are searching for Denver's past, check out the Grand Hyatt's gold rush and Wild West motifs, or enjoy a long jog around its rooftop track. The Westin Tabor Center is Denver's stop for all-out extravagance. The towering Marriott City Center offers affordable luxury and easy access to area attractions. For an even cheaper sleep, head over to the Capitol Hill neighborhood or try the downtown Holiday Inn.
Historic Lower Downtown (LoDo)
Tucked among the restaurants, bars and clubs of this nightlife haven are a couple of secluded lodging gems. The landmark Oxford Hotel. Once on the outskirts of a seedy red light district, it has served some of Denver's most interesting and notorious characters. The hotel offers easy access to the Pepsi Center, Coors Field, and is home to the stellar McCormick's Fish House.
Uptown/City Park
Denver's most popular bed-and-breakfasts are scattered about this predominantly residential neighborhood. The fashionable Merritt House, in the historic Swallow Hill district, shares the same architect as the lavish Brown Palace and features rooms with antiquarian furnishings and 19th-century charm. A less expensive getaway is the Franklin House, a restored 1896 mansion. Although not as fancy as some of the other inns around town, the owner has taken great care in reviving the home's original Victorian luxury. A visual masterpiece, Castle Marne, resides at the east end of uptown. The place actually looks like a small castle, and features a unique window of circular stained glass ascending a grand staircase, known as the Peacock Window.
Capitol Hill
The East Mansion district is in the heart of Capitol Hill. Throughout the century, many of the stately homes have retained their grandeur through conversion into multiple room apartments and museums. A few have been transformed into lively bed-and-breakfasts and provide visitors a chance to experience Denver's Victorian legacy. The Capitol Hill Mansion, erected when the district bore the kindly term "snob knob," is an aristocratic ruby sandstone structure complete with turrets and balconies, and is on the National Historic Register. Other area delights include the cozy Adagio Bed and Breakfast and the inexpensive Holiday Chalet. The area also offers the business class some excellent choices. The Burnsley Hotel towers high above the area and provides business travelers comfortable extended stay facilities and views of the Rocky Mountains.
Cherry Creek
This neighborhood is known as Denver's upscale section.

Rusty Revelations
by Lorraine A. DarConte
March 01, 2011 — "The light in Tucson is incredible," photographer Juliya Lezhen says. "There was hardly ever a cloudy day, so I never needed to use a flash or other artificial light. Every day I would go out and photograph something." That "something" for her has been metal, mostly of the rusting, peeling and decaying variety. "I started noticing little details and imperfections on metal, and so I concentrated on photographing these flaws up close and personal. I find the process of deterioration and erosion intriguing," she notes. "Neglected, discarded and antiqued objects can be found almost anywhere, and because they're exposed to the elements, they are changing every day. Most of these things no one pays any attention to. They're just part of our everyday lives. But I discovered, while looking through the camera lens at a tiny portion of peeling paint, a whole new world created by bright colors and beautiful light."

We don't care how fancy you think your mascara is — even if you use Armani Eyes To Kill, your lashes simply can't look half as awesome as Kreayshawn's do on the cover of i-D Magazine. Because there are little gold stars erupting from them.
The rapper behind the hit song Gucci Gucci may not be fashion plate, but she's certainly doing a good job of getting the industry's attention — and not just because she called out Louis Vuitton customers for being basic bitches en masse. It's her dedication to her image that's so impressive — and she shows it here with a two-tone hairdo, a leopard print manicure, and an impressively restrained nude lip. This is one cover we're definitely going to pick up. Will you?

Railways want the makers to carry a disclaimer
Controversies over films has become a joke in Bollywood nowadays, as none of them seems to come clean without a mild bit of hullabaloo.
And 'Mausam', for the second time, is running into trouble before its release.
Incidentally, its heard that the Railways have shown their discontentment on a scene where Shahid does a risky stunt of crossing the railway line in a fast paced car before a passing train.
The Railways have apparently decided to take the matter to the makers by asking them to carry a disclaimer so that people don't try that act.
The promos of the dangerous action scene have been aired on TV and the Railways are planning to send a letter to the film's team so that a disclaimer is put on that scene.
My character in 'Mausam' is completely opposite to who I am --Sonam
The 'Aisha' star is gung ho about 'Mausam' as the film reminds her of classic love stories. The actress who has portrayed a typical coy Kashmiri girl in the film recently stated that it had been difficult for her to essay this character since it's completely opposite to her real life character.
Talking about her strong character in 'Mausam', the actress revealed that to get her expression right for her character, Sonam had watched old movies of Nutan.
Talking further about 'Mausam', Sonam stated, "I am a very romantic person and the film, which is about four seasons of love, reinstated my faith in love. This is why when I was in Edinburgh, which is the second season in the movie, I felt like I was a part of Emily Bronte's 'Wuthering Heights'."

Series: SDSU leads 2-0-0
*Records do not include Friday's games (UMKC hosts NDSU on Friday)
The South Dakota State women's soccer team returns home for a pair of conference games this weekend against Oakland and IPFW on Friday, Oct. 14, and Sunday, Oct. 16, respectively. Game times are set for 6 p.m. CT on Friday and 1 p.m. CT on Sunday.
SDSU enters the game with an 9-5-2 overall record, 5-0-1 in The Summit League. The Jackrabbits are currently second in the league standings.
Jacks have put together a streak of seven straight games without a loss, which began with
the last non-conference game. SDSU tied Oakland 0-0 (2ot) before beating IPFW 3-0 last weekend.
Senior Kayla Braffet leads the offensive attack for the Jacks with four goals, four assists, 60 shots and 28 shots on goal. Senior Kelsey Ferguson has recorded four goals, two assists, 43 shots and 15 shots on goal. Junior Christa Nyblom has three goals, one assist, 26 shots and 14 shots on goal. Sophomore Darci Miller, thanks to two assists this past weekend, has three assists on the season. Senior Danielle Neuhalfen and junior Megan Huegli have two assists apiece.
Senior Kelli Herman and Steph Peterson, juniors Courtney Higgins, Huegli and Stéphanie Bérubé and sophomores Caylee Costello and Miller have played key roles on the defensive side of the ball this season. The things these players have done do not always show up in the statistics, but are vital to the team's success.
Senior goalkeeper Kat Donovan did not have to make a save in either victory this weekend. Donovan now has nine wins, nine shutouts and 52 saves this season.
The defense has now played 589 consective scoreless minutes; 560 coming to start conference play.
Head coach Lang Wedemeyer leads the Jackrabbits in his twelfth season. Wedemeyer compiled a 100-82-24 record is his first 11 seasons.
South Dakota – The Jackrabbits face the Coyotes for the fifth time in school history. USD holds a 4-0-0 series lead over SDSU. However, the last time the two teams played was in 2003 as members of the Division II North Central Conference.
In the four games between 2000-2004, USD outscored SDSU 9-1, with the last three being shutout victories.
SDSU will attempt to produce a different outcome this time around.
The teams were scheduled to play last season, but the game was canceled.
This is the first season that South Dakota has been a member of The Summit League.
Last weekend, the Coyotes played only one game, falling 2-1 at UMKC on Saturday.
That decision may be telling for Sunday's game, as the Jacks face USD on Friday before traveling to Kansas City, Mo.
On Monday, the Coyotes also fell to Northern Iowa, 2-0.
The losses made USD 1-3-1 in the conference and 1-11-3 overall. The record puts them in sixth place in the conference standings.
UMKC – The Jackrabbits face the Kangaroos for the third time in school history, the fewest of any conference opponent. SDSU has won the two games played against UMKC.
Last season, the Jacks beat the Kangaroos 3-0 in Kansas City, Mo.
The first half was scoreless, but SDSU pouredit on in the second half.
The Jacks scored three goals in a 22-minute span, the first coming 1:38 into the second half. Steph Peterson scored an unassisted goal to put SDSU on top.
Darci Miller recorded an assist on the second goal and the Jacks added a third 13 minutes later.
UMKC was held to one shot, which was on goal and saved.
The year's UMKC team is much different from last year's, however, as the Kangaroos were 0-7-2 in conference play last season.
Last weekend, UMKC played in only one game, beating South Dakota 2-1 on Saturday in Kansas City, Mo.
The win made UMKC 5-0-0 in the conference and 7-5-3 overall. The Kangaroos are in third place in the conference standings, one spot behind the Jacks.

IPFW – The South Dakota State women's soccer team had two players score their first goals of the season in a 3-0 win over IPFW...
Career games for sophomores Darci Miller and Megan Kingston helped the Jacks stay undefeated in The Summit League with a win over the Mastodons on a windy Sunday in Brookings, S.D.
Kingston, a transfer, scored two goals for the Jacks, the first coming in the 22nd minute on a cross from senior Kayla Braffet. Kingston took the ball out of the air and placed it inside the near post.
The goal was her first as a Jackrabbit.
The score was 1-0 at halftime, as SDSU controlled the ball despite being against a strong wind.
"I thought we, at times, played better against the wind [in the first half]," head coach Lang Wedemeyer said. "The wind definitely makes a difference. It is harder to clear the ball out during a pressure situation and a lot of balls are under hit. It is so windy out here so often; we have become used to it."
The Jacks outshot IPFW 13-1 in the first half, including a 4-0 shots on goal advantage. SDSU also took six corner kicks to the Mastodon's none.
It did not take long for SDSU to add to its lead.
Fifteen minutes into the second half, Miller received a pass from Christa Nyblom and finished from the top-center of the box, putting the Jacks ahead 2-0.
The goal was her first of the season.
SDSU controlled the ball for the majority of the second half, as well, and continued to create scoring opportunities.
In the 89th minute, Kingston added another goal, putting an exclamation point on the already impressive performance. Miller was credited with the assist.
"Hopefully this is just the beginning of things to come [for Megan Kingston]," Wedemeyer said. "We have talked to her a lot about getting into the box and on the back post and that is how she scored her first goal. We knew she had these capabilities, which is why we moved her from midfield to forward."
"Darci Miller had a great ball on [Kingston's] second goal and Kayla Braffet had a nice pass [on the first]; those are things we have been working a lot on in practice and it is nice to see them being executed," said Wedemeyer.
The Jacks outshot IPFW 22-2 in the game, including an 8-0 shots on goal advantage. SDSU held a 10-0 corner kicks advantage, as well.
Oakland – On a cold Friday night in Brookings, S.D., the South Dakota State women's soccer team could not heat up the net, tying Oakland, 0-0 (2ot)...
The Jackrabbits dominated the game statistically, but could not find the go-ahead goal.
SDSU outshot the Golden Grizzlies 17-5, including an 8-0 shots on goal advantage. In addition to the eight shots on goal, the Jacks had two shots hit the crossbar.
In the 84th minute, senior Kayla Braffet hit a shot from just outside the box. The ball cut through the air towards the far post, striking the crossbar and bouncing straight down before being cleared out by an Oakland defender.
In the second overtime period, sophomore Caylee Costello also had a shot hit the crossbar. The shot deflected away from the goal and out of danger.
Aside from two shots that were saved by Oakland's goalkeeper, these were the best scoring opportunities the Jacks had all night.
"In a game like this, the only thing that happens is you need a goal," head coach Lang Wedemeyer said. "A goal forces the defense to come out of that shell and it opens up more space. They were able to be effective packing it in and trying to counter. We were not able to break it down. The girls played a good game, but missed that scoring touch."
Seniors Braffet and Kelsey Ferguson led the offensive attack with four shots apiece. Junior Christa Nyblom took three shots, all of which were on goal.
The starters accounted for 16 of the Jacks 17 shots. SDSU also led in corner kicks, 3-2.
The defense had another solid game, as senior Kelli Herman, juniors Courtney Higgins and Stéphanie Bérubé and Costello anchored the back line for the Jacks.
Senior goalkeeper Kat Donovan was not forced to make a single save.
The only caution in the game was given to Oakland's head coach in the sixth minute.
"We played fairly well for most of the game," said Wedemeyer. "It was a little bit of a chess match. They played with five backs a lot of times, trying to stagnate our attack and for a good portion of the game it worked. We created enough opportunities to score a few goals, but it was the same story as the rest of the season; a little unlucky or a good goalkeeping save or just missing an opportunity. Oakland is a good team, but we are a bit disappointed with the tie."
NEXT UP – SDSU returns home for the regular season finale against North Dakota State on Saturday, Oct. 29. Game time is set for 6 p.m. at Fishback Soccer Park.
The game will have postseason implications, as NDSU is currently atop the conference standings with a 6-0-0 mark.
The Jacks face the Bison for the 14th time in school history, the most of any opponent. NDSU holds a 6-5-2 series lead over SDSU.
Last season, NDSU beat SDSU in the regular season 2-1. The two teams met again in the first round of the conference tournament. In that game, the teams tied 1-1 (2ot), but the Bison advanced with a 4-3 advantage in penalty kicks.
THE SUMMIT LEAGUE – A nearly full slate of games is set for this weekend, once again.
On Friday, along with the SDSU at USD game, three late games are on the schedule.
UMKC hosts NDSU.
IPFW hosts Southern Utah in Fort Wayne, Ind.
Oakland hosts Oral Roberts in Rochester, Mich.
All games are set for 7 p.m. (times local to event locations)
On Saturday, Western Illinois hosts IUPUI in Macomb, Ill., at Noon.
On Sunday, in addition to SDSU at UMKC, three games will be played at the same time.
USD hosts NDSU.
IPFW hosts Oral Roberts.

APPALACHIAN OUTLAWS NEW TV SHOW - Ginseng Hunters
I watched a new show the other night called Appalachian Outlaws and I figured it was about either moon shining or ginseng. It is about Ginseng Hunters in the Appalachian mountains - some illegally, some legally. One guy has a farm he inherited and he has huge patches of ginseng that his grandfather and father planted. Others take huge risks trespassing on other's lands. It was an interesting show.
Ginseng only has a two month hunting season (late summer to early fall) and it is worth lots of money. The going rate is about $300-550 a pound depending on your area. I like in the Blue Ridge Mountains of NC and part of that chain is also Appalachian. I know several Ginseng hunters in my area who go up to the mountain and camp out for a week or two at a time and collect ginseng. It is getting much harder to collect due to new ridiculous laws limiting the hunting. Some states have lottery only permits to collect.
I think a great retirement plan is to plant some ginseng in your own garden or forest. Let it grow for many years and you will have a big root to cash in.

Reducing the number of business intelligence (BI) technologies in your organization can result in significant cost savings (through elimination of duplicated costs such as evaluation, deployment, training, and support), greater control over information and better alignment with your business users. But migrating your BI system is not just about the technology - it's about methodology too. Read this white paper to learn how you can refine your BI strategy and experience accelerated ROI.
The fraud and risk manager is often caught between demands to reduce losses to fraud and balance the requirements of customer value. With false positive rates (FPR) becoming a significant driver for fraud detection operations, organizations must determine a way to effectively provide FPR values to allow the fraud prevention and detection strategy to be updated, tailored and adopted quickly, and its performance to be monitored efficiently. This white paper examines credit card fraud and details business rules-based fraud prevention and detection.
Until now, business process improvement practices have focused resources on exception processing or the automation of as many business decisions as possible. While both approaches are valid, the outcome can vary substantially based on how the decisions are automated. If organizations lack the tools necessary to effectively automate these decisions, their improvement options become significantly limited, resulting in reduced visibility and limited agility. This white paper discusses how Business Rule Management Systems (BRMS) simplify business process automation, making processes easier to understand, manage and maintain.
Communication Intelligence: Bringing Accuracy and Efficiency to Policy Production and Underwriting Automation
Significant automation reforms are underway at insurance carriers to make the underwriting process less error-prone and more productive, cost-effective and customer-responsive. This paper explores the new techonologies making all this possible.
While IT can play a role in innovation and change within a company, leadership at CIO level is what really makes a difference. By focusing on business value, and implementing changes that are specifically suited to the individual company rather than generic technology based solutions, CIOs can be the drivers of real business growth. This is especially true when implementing a business intelligence initiative. Without executive leadership, most BI projects are doomed to fail. Read "The CIO's Guide to Business Intelligence: Leading the charge for Innovation" to learn how the direction of the right executive within a company leads to the creation of a BI system which increases revenue and provides the information to make better business decisions.

Professor Lenny Moss
My interests in philosophy and science both go back to my early teens but they were conceived in very different contexts, and nurtured in very different moods. The twists and turns, engagements and disengagements that have led to their coming together have surely constituted a principal leitmotif of my intellectual life. Where my scientific intrigues may have been seduced by the well-crafted, pseudo-utopian rhetoric, arfully deployed in the New York World's Fair 'pavilions' of Dupont Chemical, General Electric and the like, and further developmentally embedded by early 'successes' in the seventh grade chemistry classroom of Mrs. Chasen—philosophy has always had a very different status for me. As philosophy was hardly on the career menu in the projects and terraces of Queens and Brooklyn in which I grew up, it has always been about something special, ill-behaved, revelatory, critical and tinged with a giddy promise of liberation. (Nor have I even yet come to be able to countenance the standpoint of those for whom a career in philosophy is taken, not as a provocation of the marvelous, but rather as a somber birthright). As a sexually starved sixteen year-old, with liberal politics and a psychological bent, it is hardly surprisingly that my first intellectual passion was with the writings of Wilhelm Reich. Whether the pathways from Reich to the likes of Sartre, Situationism, Marcuse, Habermas and the Frankfurt School has since become well worn, or perhaps just worn-out, the scent was more than discernable at the time.
* * *
Not every experience that cultivates and conditions one's purchase on or in the world finds a place on one's academic vita. Before settling into a life as a research scientist I ran corned beef and pastrami for a Kosher-style deli on Wall Street, hawked souvenirs for the 6-feet-wide-by 60-feet-deep Aquarium gift shop on Coney Island's boardwalk, devoted two summers as a camp counselor with brain-damaged and severely autistic children, washed pots and pans in the hot summer kitchen of Old Ebbit's Grill, endured the all-night, clean-up shift at the Sheraton Park Hotel, managed a non-profit 'radical' bookstore, founded a child-rearing commune, stuffed envelopes for the Washington Monthly, handled (albeit poorly) an off-set printing press for Tyler Buiness Services, set-up sherry-hour and searched the marijuana infused, back-stacks of the Library of Congress for the scholars (and political insiders) of the Woodrow Wilson International Center when it was still housed in the Smithsonian's castle, mixed bacterial media and autoclaved its finished fruit, and clocked-in for two and a half years with a former military intelligence officer named Carlton C. Crook (who had once chased after Jewish communists) collecting evidence of corporate collusion amongst major oil companies for the California State Attorney's office (until a Republican was elected governor). Without the benefit of remuneration, I was also arrested twice for anti-war activities but only handcuffed and smashed in the face with a police sargent's walky-talky once.

A Brief Historical Sketch of the Academy of Parish Clergy
Writing in the Christian Century, Dr. Granger Westburg proposed that an organization should be founded to assist clergy to enhance their professional skills after initial entry into the profession. He proposed that the new organization be modeled after the Academy of General Practice in the medical field. The purpose of the Academy of Parish Clergy was to require its members to undertake, supervise, and reflect upon their work in a lifelong commitment to continuing competence and skill development.
In response to that article the Lilly Endowment made a grant in 1968 to fund an initial colloquium of about fifteen clergy and professional development leaders to consider the proposal. It was held in Houston. As a consequence, the Academy of Parish Clergy, Inc., was founded and incorporated in the State of Indiana on May 15, 1968, as a not-for-profit corporation.
Substantial assistance from the Lilly Endowment, the Bush Foundation, and the Minister's Life and Casualty Union enabled full-time staff to be engaged, a vigorous recruitment program to be instituted, an office to be established, and instruments such as the Guide for Continuing Growth and the Standards of Competence to be prepared. The Journal of the Academy was also formulated and annual meetings were to be organized.
The Academy rapidly became national in stature, with clergy from nearly every state in the Union, interfaith (Christians and Jews) and interdenominational (forty different bodies) within its membership. Local Colleague Groups were set up, and Chapters were chartered with the Ohio Chapter being the first. Five additional Chapters were chartered over the years, and clergy from several other nations caused the Academy to become an international organization.
Soon after the Academy was founded other professional bodies recognized it as the representative for clergy, and it is still so recognized. The Academy became a member of SACEM (Society for the Advancement of Continuing Education in Ministry), and through this body it sought to give shape to the profession.
In 1981 the Board of Directors found it necessary to forgo paid staff. Since that time, unpaid volunteers recruited from among members have filled all staff positions. This has ensured that the interests of the membership have been paramount in the management of the Academy.
In the Annual Convocation / Meeting of 1988, new By-laws were adopted which gave a "new look" to the Academy. One of the major changes required that members henceforth would be expected to conform to the Standards of Competence and to a new Code of Ethics. In 1989 new Educational Pathways were created to provide options for professional growth. Each of the Educational Pathways was given a Dean to assist members who chose to follow it.
The Advanced Studies Pathway
The Advanced Studies Pathway is open to members who have completed at least 150 clock-hours of study in a particular area of interest during the past triennium. Certificates have been awarded in such diverse fields as Pastoral Care and Counseling, Preaching, and in Police Chaplaincy.
The College of Fellows
The College of Fellows was established in 1973 and is open to those members who have completed three triennia in the General Studies Pathway (some exceptions) and who have made effective use of the Guide for Continuing Growth. The College of Fellows is a self-governing and independent part of the Academy.
Since 1980 the Academy has presented a Book of the Year Award each year to the author of the best book written on a subject relevant to the work of the parish ministry. This prestigious award is greatly appreciated both by the authors and the publishers who offer their books for consideration.
Since 1992 the Academy has presented a Parish Pastor of the Year citation to a pastor considered outstanding in every aspect of ministry. This is an open award and only occasionally goes to a member of the Academy. Many recipients have become loyal members of the Academy.
Annual Conferences have been held since 1970 in different locales. These annual meetings have become the heartbeat of the Academy. In addition to the learning opportunities provided, members share in worship, collegial exchange, and fellowship with one another, the invited speakers, workshop leaders, authors, and on-site personnel.
The Academy of Parish Clergy has become a self-supporting, self-governing, and self-propagating organization. The quarterly journal, Sharing the Practice is sent to members and subscribers (mainly seminary and other libraries and publishers). It contains articles submitted by members, features by non-members that relate to clergy, and many book reviews for which members receive the book at no cost. In 1998 the Web Site was established as an information piece for those seeking to know more about the Academy.

Today we are showcasing the first (very early) version of the Optimization.Framework.JS. As you might have guessed by now, it is a port of the Optimization.Framework to JavaScript. Actually, we could have called it Optimization.Framework.TS, because it is entirely written in TypeScript. If you don't know TypeScript I recommend to check it out, it is pure awesomeness
Anyway, to showcase the Framework.JS, what could be more suited than a little JSFiddle, so here you go:
The important pane to look at is at the lower left, where you see a sample transport model (scroll down to the bottom, which is where the actual model formulation is). If you have worked with the Framework before, everything should look pretty familiar. It does look so familiar because of this amazing (and slightly crazy – in a good way!) project: http://linqjs.codeplex.com/. Yepp, they did port some of the LINQ stuff to JavaScript, pretty cool, huh?

You have much more power to shape things than you might think and I will give you the tools you need to grow your confidence and make things happen.
Give yourself time, courage and motivation to discover what matters most and to figure out how you really want life to look and feel.

text: Hi, I`m new here. Bought the alpha access today like 10 minutes ago. And I would like to download some community made cars. I know that I can find them in the showroom, but it`s hard to tell which one is done and which is a WIP. So I would suggest the mods to create a Showroom for finished community projects so it would be easier for people to find cars that are already finished. Unless there already is a place for that that I didn`t see. It would be awesome if you could direct me to it.
