"Hold your breath, baby.
We have to make our hearts sit still.
Hold your tongue, honey,
The things we know could unleash hell."
The song of the day is the perfect, amazing 'One Hundred' by Hands Like Houses!
I've spoken about this amazing Australian sextet before, but I clearly forgot how unbelievable this song is and it really does help you get through a long, horrible, cold, agonising journey (yes I'm using pretty much every descriptive term in the dictionary!)
This song, along with their whole album, is so great. Today I actually figured out why I love HLH so much! Other than the fact that they are really cool, funny guys (hello! they are Australian- win!!), super talented and humble, they aren't like everybody else! The reason why I really love their music, is because they almost seem like a post-hardcore band. They have the same vibe, and every time I listen to one of their songs, I wait for a breakdown and some heavy screaming to kick in, but it doesn't happen. I kinda love it. I like screaming, don't get me wrong, but I always prefer a post-hardcore band's clean vocals to the unclean (screaming) ones!
And I am so stoked to see them supporting Pierce The Veil in London, and also at Slam Dunk Festival. Best news ever!!
Here's one of the greatest songs I've actually ever heard.

In the integration process of Indian Airlines and Air India, 204 of the 226 issues have been completed while integration is in in progress on 17 issues and five issues are pending in court. This information was presented in Parliament on Tuesday by the civil aviation ministry.
To a large extent, level mapping and seniority merger of the two erstwhile airlines have been completed. The draft revised basic pay and allowances in respect of the different categories of employees of the merged entity have been displayed on the intranet and the same could not be implemented due to on-going court cases, a statement made in the parliament said.
Separately, the civil aviation ministry said that the Government has proposed to set up three new low-cost airports in Bihar at Muzaffarpur, Raxaul and Gaya. While Gaya is an operational custom airport, Raxaul will be a non-operational airport.
The development of an individual airport depends upon many factors such as availability of land, availability of mandatory clearances, environmental clearances, traffic projections, and provision of support services by the State Government. The support services include access road to the airport, water supply, power supply, services of State Police and State Fire Staff, the statement said.
The government has also undertaken development of 35 non-metro airports in the country based on the recommendations of the Task Force and keeping in view the potential for traffic, tourism, business etc.

CINCINNATI (AP) — A southwest Ohio homeless advocacy group wants assaults on homeless people to be considered hate crimes under the law.
The Greater Cincinnati Homeless Coalition says the designation of homeless people as a protected group would enhance penalties for offenders and help deter attacks.
The Cincinnati Enquirer (http://cin.ci/1s9k9kC ) reports that homeless coalition executive director Josh Spring says the proposal comes on the heels of the beating of a homeless man last weekend. Spring said one of the three men accused of the assault said they did because they were "bored."
The National Coalition for the Homeless says that since 1999 the number of crimes against homeless people resulting in death outnumber the number of deaths in crimes associated with race, religion, sexual orientation and ethnicity combined.

The world's second-largest airline is just a little over a year removed from the May 2010 merger that brought two of America's iconic air-travel brands together under a single corporate entity. The result is a hybrid that sports the simplified brand name "United" supported by the old Continental globe logo. Also retained by the new company is Continental's ad agency, Kaplan Thaler. The New York based agency and creators of the Aflac duck will head United's rebranding effort with support from United's former lead ad agency: Barrie D'Rozario Murphy of Minneapolis. Senior Vice President of Marketing Programs and Distribution at Continental Airlines, Mark Bergsrud, has yet to unveil a new slogan for United. A new tagline together with a fresh TV campaign is expected early next year.

James Arthur – Wrecking Ball (Miley Cyrus Cover) – Video
The X Factor UK 2012 winner James Arthur has had a huge year since winning reality talent competition. His winner's single, "Impossible," became the fastest-selling coronation single in X Factor history, and is the second best-selling winner's single ever, after Alexandra Burke's "Hallelujah". He also has a new single out, "You're Nobody Til Somebody Loves You". Yet he hasn't given up on covers just yet.
James Arthur was in Germany to appear on the Radio Hamburg Live-Lounge, where he delivered an emotional, unplugged cover of Miley Cyrus' hit single, "Wrecking Ball". In short, it's pretty damn remarkable. If he released this, I'd buy it faster than my credit card could process it (which doesn't speak too well of my financial management).

In wake of Newtown tragedy, White House says Obama is exploring legislation reinstating ban on assault weapons
Associated Press
Published: 12.18.12, 21:06 / Israel News
Associated Press
The White House said Tuesday that President Barack Obama
is "actively supportive" of efforts on Capitol Hill to reinstate an assault weapons
Obama has long backed the ban but has failed to push for it during his first term. The president's position has been reiterated in wake of the Newtown massacre.
Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein plans to introduce legislation to reinstate the ban early next year.
Related stories:
"He is actively supportive of, for example, Sen. (Dianne) Feinstein's stated intent to revive a piece of legislation that would reinstate the assault weapons ban," White House spokesman Jay Carney said.
Carney added that Obama would also support legislation to close the gun show "loophole," which allows people to buy guns from private dealers without background checks.

Obama spoke Tuesday with Senator Joe Manchin, a conservative Democrat and avid hunter who is now supportive of a national discussion on preventing gun violence.
The president "Is heartened… by what we have all heard from some members of Congress who have been longtime opponents of gun control measures," Carney said.
According to Politico, Carney also offered some other gun laws Obama would back. "He supports and would support legislation that addresses the problem of the so-called gun show loophole, and there are other elements of gun legislation that he could support… high capacity ammunition clips, for example. That is certainly something he would be interested in looking at," he said.
Obama has pledged to address gun violence in the coming weeks following Friday's deadly shooting at a Connecticut school.

Teen Trips
Private Groups
Peaks of Tanzania
Hi people!
With less than 3 months to go, I thought it might be worth seeing who else out there is booked up to go to Tanzania on the 15th to do the route up Kili that only the brave need apply for?! I'm allowing myself to get excited now although the nerves are kicking in too!
Sally x
I'm booked on this trip too - getting very excited about it now I can't wait it's coming around really quickly!!
Hi Alex - nice to hear from someone else on this trip!
I have a habit of putting these posts on the forum and then forgetting to check them to see if anyone has replied - sorry for the delay!
Apparently there are 9 of us booked on this trip so that's 4 accounted for! I'm travelling on my own but I know one other couple on this trip as I met them 2 years ago when we ended up on a Morocco trek together.
It's amazing that there is only 52 days to departure (and also scary!) I've just got my passport back today with newly acquired visa so it's making it all very real!
So how many of these trips have you done before?
Hi Sally,
Whoops forgot to check up on whether anyone had replied - sorry for the delay. I can't believe how close it's getting got all my injections scheduled for next week :( . Haven't sorted the visa yet going to send that off this weekend. Last trip I did like this was a couple of years ago when I did the Everest base camp trek in Nepal which was great fun.
Not heard from anyone else on this trip yet but I think there are at least 2 other solo travellers.
Have you done much training?
Hi Alex,
I did the Adventure Nepal trip about 3 years ago, which was incredible. I loved Nepal and fell in love with these kind of trips from that point on! Everest Base Camp is definitely on my to-do list.
I've sorted my visa but not the injections yet. I'm booked in for those the week after next, which is never fun. I did my visa through travcour and it was very easy and quick. I always panic about sending my passport anywhere out of my control so the least amount of time it has to be the better! I think they only had it for a week, so they were very good.
I'm going on a walking weekend this weekend coming with two of the others going on this trip (they are called Fish and Aly.) We're off to Shropshire (not that hilly but I think it's all about the mileage this weekend!) I do quite a bit of running and cycling so I'm hoping that will tide me over as far as fitness is concerned. The main training that I need to get used to is use of trekking poles! It's the first time I've opted to take them on a trip and I'm not entirely sure I will ever get used to them!! As far as altitude is concerned, I did the High Inca Trail last year and that reaches 5000m so, again, I'm hoping that gave me a pretty good idea of what high altitude is like. This of course will be a completely different experience and to an extent I don't think anyone knows how they are going to be affected until they get there! Think it's a massive bonus we get to do Meru first.
Can't believe it is is only 6 weeks away as of tomorrow. I booked this is in November last year and it seemed such a long way away then! I've sorted my train ticket out to get down to Heathrow. I think the only thing I've got left to sort is spending money. I don't think you can take their currency in with you so will probably just take some British pounds and a bit of US dollar to change when I get there... and, of course, my credit card - I think I've ended up using it at some point on every trip I've gone on!!
I'm booked on this trip too so thought i'd say hello! 25 days to go!
Just got to decide on my anti-malarials and how much spending money to take...anyone have any idea how much we'll need...?
I'm guessing not that much given that we're on trek for all but 3 days and we get BLD provided most days.
Any idea?
Hello Sharon!
Eeek, indeeed! Only 17 (soon to be 16) days to go and I cannot wait!
As far as money is concerned I've got $400 (apparently it's the easiest to exchange and dollars are what you pay the porters with) and I'll rely on that and my trusty credit card! I don't think we'll need hardly anything for food but I think most of the money will go on porter's tips with a few dollars for some celebratory tipples on the evening when we get back down! I understand there's an additional charge for an optional trip (I think it's for the safari between the two mountains) as well so I'm hoping it will be enough... and if not that's where the credit card comes in!
I've got the full strength Lariam (Mefloquine) for my anti-malarials. It's what the doc recommended so I'm going with it. Hopefully it'll prevent the malaria but won't send me too crazy - it's never good when you see the possible side effects are hallucinations!!
I'm just about all ready with everything piled up in my spare room ready to pack - just 11 more shifts to get through at work and that's all I'm counting down now!
Sally x
Hi Sally!
Cool - I'll probably take $400 and a credit card too then!
I can't see where we'll have any time to spend any money from the itinerary so yes, think it'll be mainly tips and drinks on the last night...
I've ordered Doxycyclene (spelling?) which i've taken before and hap problems...but my doctor assures me it's because i wasn't taking them properly (i.e. standing up and with a massive glass of water)
If I have problems again i'll just cover myself in Deet. I'm assured by other people who've done this trip that they never saw a single mozzie the whole time!
I have another friend who had the hallucinations on Larium and made me promise not to take it!
Can't believe it's 2 weeks on monday!!
This time next week we will all be furiously packing!!! Can't believe it's come round so quicky. I booked this trip in November last year so it felt like an eternity away then!!
I've started on the Lariam now and so far, so good! My friend took it when she went to Borneo and had no problems with it, so I'm taking my chances. You only have to take one tablet a week as well, which makes it easier. When I went to Nepal I was on one that you needed to take every day and then a separate pill once a week so this is much better... assuming the hallucinations don't make an appearance! I feel like a pharmacy counter at the moment having recently had my yellow fever jab, typhoid booster, malaria tablets and also taking aspirin to try and thin my blood a bit so I don't have to take Diamox. let's hope it's all worth it!
Hope you are all ready people and see you in just over a week!!! x
Woooo just one week to go!!!!!!!! Can't believe we fly out next Monday I'm so excited I can't believe it's finally here! I've never taken malaria tablets before but I've got Malarone tablets, not sure whether they are any good or not? Just got to get currency sorted then I'm all set.
Looking foward to seeing you all next week!!
This week is going to go so slowly!

News of the deal, with an estimated value is $1.1 billion, didn't surprise industry observers. In a separate contract announced this year, the London-based global consumer products company tapped Accenture to take over its European information technology operation, and rumors were that HRO would be next.
But what surprised experts was that a deal of this scope and size—spanning 206,000 employees in 100 countries—didn't include benefits administration. The deal includes recruitment process outsourcing, payroll, performance management and learning.
"Benefits administration is usually a big portion of deals of this size," says Yankee Group analyst Jason Corsello. "It seems like a lot of money, especially since it doesn't include benefits."
Although Unilever and Accenture are not commenting on the value of the deal, IDC estimates that it's the biggest deal yet on an annual basis. With an estimated value of $1.1 billion for seven years, it beats DuPont's deal with Convergys, which was valued at $1.1 billion over 13 years.
Given the complexities of benefits administration in Europe, where each country has its own laws and procedures, Unilever decided to stay with its current providers, says Michelle Adelman, a senior executive at Accenture. Unilever uses Fidelity Investments as its U.S. benefits administrator and a number of providers internationally, including Hewitt Associates.
"We don't force clients to take on all the costs associated with switching benefits providers," she says.
Accenture often comes across potential clients who are happy with their benefits providers. In these cases, Accenture will integrate with the client's existing provider. If the client wants a new benefits administrator, the HRO provider often teams up with third parties.
Accenture is discussing building or buying its own global benefits capabilities, Adelman says.
"Global benefits administration does not exist as a capability, but it's one of the areas we are looking at as part of our global strategy," she says. "We have a number of global customers now and we are trying to understand the requirements and design process to determine how we can do that."
In the meantime, Accenture is spending the next 18 to 24 months helping Unilever standardize its HR processes before it makes the transition to outsourcing, Adelman says.
Unlike many HRO buyers who outsource their HR processes and then upgrade them, Unilever wants to establish standards, then have Accenture take them over.
Accenture has partnered with Arinso International in Brussels, Belgium, to provide payroll for Unilever, and with Vurv Technology of Jacksonville, Florida, to provide recruiting software.
Getting into global benefits administration is a big task for Accenture to take on, analysts say. "There is a huge barrier to entry in the benefits market," says Neil McEwen, an analyst at PA Consulting Group. "Between multiplicity of languages, privacy issues and different country laws, it requires a lot of work."

Charges filed against Serbian priest for drug rehab beatingBy AP

Serbian priest charged in rehab beating
BELGRADE, Serbia — Police have filed torture charges against a Serbian Orthodox priest for beating a drug rehab patient with a shovel.
The former head of the church-backed Crna Reka rehab center in southern Serbia, Branislav Peranovic, has been removed from his position after a video broadcast on national television showed him swinging a shovel at an unnamed patient's lower back.
An employee of the center, shown in another video punching a patient with brass knuckles, was also charged by police on Friday.
Crna Reka priests have said the beatings are a necessary part of the therapy and are carried out with the consent of patients' parents.

Everyone needs an Aunt Pat
September 2, 2008 - Betsy Bethel
Just spent the weekend at my aunt and uncle's farm in Mount Sterling, south of Columbus, and it was glorious. There are several things you can count on when you visit my Aunt Pat.
1. You will be fed to bursting.
Aunt Pat believes in three large meals a day when entertaining guests. Here's a sample menu:
Saturday lunch -- Cold meatloaf sandwiches on homemade bread, potato salad (Gram's recipe), watermelon, and double-thick brownies for dessert.
Saturday supper -- Beef and noodles, mashed potatoes, green beans with bacon and onions, homemade bread, and her famous chocolate pie topped a mile high with Cool Whip for dessert.
Sunday breakfast --Thick bacon with scrambled eggs and mush fried in the grease.
Sunday lunch -- Hamburgers and hot dogs, potato salad, corn bake; pie for dessert.
Sunday supper -- Pork tenderloin, leftovers, and chocolate cake and ice cream for dessert.
Monday breakfast -- Bacon, cinnamon-vanilla French toast and scrambled eggs fried in bacon grease.
Mmmm, mmmm good!
2. You will be presented with gifts.
Aunt Pat believes in shopping for all her family members year-round and doesn't bother to wait until a holiday or birthday to give gifts. She finds many of these treasures at auctions.
I left her house yesterday not only with a matted black-and-white drawing of a bunny (our daughter's nickname), but also with a paperback set in Scotland, four day lilies and two sedum plants to transplant, nearly a whole pie, and a grocery sack filled with DVDs and videos borrowed from my uncle's extensive video library.
3. You will have fun.
Whether it's swimming in the pond, hiking down to the creek, playing volleyball in the yard, catching butterflies, playing "spoons" (a card game), playing dress-up (yes, even the adults get in on the act), putting on a puppet show, racing through the cornfields, or just hanging out and visiting, folks of all ages find something enjoyable to do at Aunt Pat's.
The youngsters still bring along their MP3 players and handheld video games, but they get surprisingly little use on the farm -- the great outdoors beckons.
Aunt Pat is my mother's sister. My mother and stepdad joined us at the farm this weekend, along with my cousins, my brother and lots of little ones. My mom shares Aunt Pat's fun-loving, food-loving, kid-geared mentality, and brought homemade berry pies, handmade paper necklaces she bought at a farmers' market, and crazy dress-up wigs to share.
When we were kids, a visit to Aunt Pat's farm was cause for much rejoicing. Now that we're grown-ups, it has lost none of its charm, and a second generation is making memories there. Thanks, Aunt Pat!

ML Game 10
Campbell's Boathouse Restaurant 11
Baker Printing 3
Campbell's Boathouse knocked off Baker printing for the second time in this young season to push their season opening win streak to 4 with a convincing 11 - 3 victory. Campbell's jumped out early with 4 runs in the top of the first and never looked back. It was Andrew Sposato that would help pace the potent Campbell's attack on this night, scoring 3 runs on his first 3 at bats. Jack Higgins helped Sposato reaching base twice himself, including a key RBI single in the opening frame which turned out to be the games winning run - plating Campbell's Centerfielder Nick Corrado.
Evan Fooks took the hill and notched his 2nd win of the season, spreading 3 hits over 3 2/3 innings of work. He handed off to Campbell's ace closer Bryan Paz, who struck out 5 and gave up his lone hit on a line drive by Baker starting pitcher Brian Virbitski.
The Campbell's boys take a rare day off on Friday, as they ready themselves to face the sleeping giant Carman Insurance in an early Saturday morning contest.
Pitch Counts:
Fooks – 86
Paz – 26
Virbitski – 88
Summy – 33
Lunger – 9

I Can't Wait For This Day To End…
Ever have one of those days – you just want it to be over?
Those kind of days it seems like a string of one bad thing after another. Almost like a dark cloud is following you around.
I used to wish those kind of days would just be over with. C'mon tomorrow!! But then one day I realized that was a day I would never have again.
So, I started looking at those bad days differently. Those bad days became my classroom. Those bad days are rich with lessons if we are simply willing to view them that way.
Maybe the lesson is to slow down. Maybe it's to take time to stop and appreciate all the good people and other blessings you have in your life.
I've often found when I'm having a bad day it's signpost that maybe I'm focusing on myself too much. So, when you are having a bad day, change your focus and look for ways you can help someone else. If you help someone else you have made 2 people have a better day – them and you. That's a day worth living!
Let me know your thoughts in the comment section below…

If the Lord tarries
I wonder how many theological Ph.D. dissertations ever get read after they're approved. Is there a mausoleum they all go to once the authors collect their coveted sheepskin? What would you say is the percentage that survive as something helpful to the Kingdom? Does it parallel the one sperm in a million that hits the ovum?
At a recent church party I met a man who is working on his Ph.D. He didn't look very excited, but it could just be that he had a headache, or didn't like talking to me. His topic is the use of sarcasm in the first eight chapters of Isaiah.
My late husband started a dissertation on some minor theological point in the thought of a minor Scottish theologian-but I could see his heart wasn't in it. We were both relieved when the seminary let him break tradition by researching a freshly dead Korean theologian (Young was Korean) rather than a long dead white man.
Sometimes I wonder if we denominational types get ingrown and are forced to scrape the bottom of the barrel for topics. I fear the academic counterpart of genetic inbreeding among the Tudors.
I've been reading Charles Finney, who was radioactive in the seminary I attended-mentioned only in passing and with a sneer. His book is changing my life. I am fantasizing that some gutsy student will write this dissertation: "How Our Denomination Should Repent for Disdaining a Godly Man Like Finney." Do you think the title is too long?
The Intelligent Man in C.S.Lewis' The Great Divorce thought it would be interesting to probe "what [Jesus'] mature views would have been." Now there's a dissertation proposal, if the Lord tarries. I don't think we have that kind of time, though.

Certainly, one part of our efforts to ensure fair access to trails in Los Penasquitos Canyon and the Del Mar Mesa will be to generate "sweat equity" in the trails. City Ranger Rick Thompson has requested the community to donate volunteer time to maintain and repair trails, and the San Diego Mountain Bike Assn. responded by setting two of their 2004 "trail maintenance days" for Los Penasquitos. The first one is this Saturday, January 24th, 8:00am to Noon or so.
Ranger Thompson has put the word out to the equestrian community, the hikers involved in the Trails Committee and those of us seeking to support multiuse trail designations that he'd really like to see us all come out this Saturday.
The location for the work will be in the Upper Cobbles section of Cobblestone trail, leading down from the Del Mar Mesa into LPCP. This section of trail is currently, and has always been, open to all user groups. It connects to Lower Cobbles (which is marked as closed to bikes), and we are working to establish the entire Cobblestone Trail as a "multiuse corridor", ie open to equestrians, mountain bikes, runners, hikers... and with signs that say so!
The Ranger has identified an area on Upper Cobbles with erosion damage and some sightline issues, and will allocate volunteer labor for appropriate repair work. If you don't know, Ranger Thompson has significant experience in trail design and repair at Mission Trails Regional Park, so this event should give us all some great results on the trail!
The meeting point will be at the top of Cobblestone, on the Del Mar Mesa. To get there, take the 56 Freeway to Carmel Country Rd, south. Carmel Country Rd to Del Mar Mesa Rd (Shaw Ridge Rd) east/left. Follow Shaw Ridge Rd to the point where it Tees into Del Vino. Turn right onto Del Vino, park at the end of Del Vino. The top of Cobblestone is to the southeast of the end of the pavement. Of course, you can also ride your bike, horse or running shoes to the worksite. The meeting time to start work is 8:00am, but if you come later, you will be appreciated (see below).
Notes on Trail Maintenance: if you haven't come to one of these events before, you will enjoy it, even if you do break a sweat. There will be tools for working available, but you can bring your own (mark it with your name using a Sharpie) if you like. Certainly, bring a hat, some water and work gloves. If you don't have work gloves, you can use cycling gloves but they'll get a little torn up. These "work parties" usually go about 4 or 5 hours, so if you're late, it will still work out fine.
Come by! Lend a hand, whether it be in hard labor, walking water up and down the trail to workers or just cheering others on and taking photos. If you are planning to come, please RVSP to: firstname.lastname@example.com so we can give an expected count to the Ranger. If you have questions, email them to the same place and I'll try to get back to you quickly.
Here's hoping to see you out there!

LDS Church unveils Restoration site plan
A plot of land in Oakland Twp., once home to Joseph Smith, founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, holds sacred significance to the church and is also a recognized historical site.
On Saturday, Oct. 13, the LDS Church publicly unveiled its plans for the development of the site – now marked only by a monument – into a visitors' center focused on the events that occurred at the Oakland Twp. location.
Keith Dunford, Stake President of nine LDS congregations in northeastern Pennsylvania, said, "Some significant events occurred here and the church concluded it was time to do a full restoration of this site for church members and non-members to learn about our church history."
Plans for the site include the realigning of SR 171 for safety issues; the reconstruction of the Isaac Hale and Joseph Smith homes; and the building of a Visitors' Center and Chapel. Trails, walkways and access roads will also be constructed, Dunford said.
The work on SR 171 is slated to begin as early as November, Dunford said. But, he added, that work could be delayed until next year.
The roadway cuts through the property which, if left as it is, would make accessing various locations at the site dangerous for visitors.
Dunford said the roadway will be moved to the north for safety. "It's not possible to leave it where it is," he said.
The road realignment is expected to take over two years to complete. The church is paying to have the roadway moved.
Archeologists are already at work around the foundation and well at the Isaac Hale home. Hale, and his wife, Elizabeth, were parents to Emma (Hale) Smith, wife of Joseph Smith.
Although there are no photographs of the Hale home, Dunford said the archeologists would be looking for clues about the home's construction so it could be replicated at the site.
There is, however, a picture of the Joseph and Emma Smith home. Plans include reconstructing the small home where Smith worked at transcribing a large portion of the Book of Mormon in 1828-29.
Walking trails will be constructed in the area of the "Sugarbush," a grove of maple trees that, according to church doctrine, is where John the Baptist first appeared to Joseph Smith.
A roadway, leading to the Joseph Smith baptismal site along the river, will be put in along with a parking area for visitor convenience but no buildings will be built in that area, Dunford said.
And on Saturday, Dunford unveiled the artist's rendering of the Visitor's Center and Chapel. The building will be able to hold about 235 people, he said.
Pennsylvania bluestone will be used on the building façade and on walkways in the garden area outside of the center.
Susquehanna County native daughter, Emma Hale's home is a "sacred place to the church," Dunford said. "(The project) will not only be to honor Joseph Smith, but also Emma."
"We feel strongly about the history of what occurred here," said Dunford.
Community leaders indicated they thought the development of the site could be a boon to the local economy.
Currently, about 20,000 people visit the site each year.
Dunford said he expects that number to double after the work in completed.
Dunford also shot down rumors that the LDS Church would be building a hotel in the area.
"No hotel is being constructed by the Church," he said. "But one may be by someone who sees an opportunity."

Dec. 30, 1999
PULLMAN-Wash. -- College basketball recruiting expert Bob Gibbons has ranked Washington State's 2000 recruiting class as the 28th-best in the nation in his December newsletter. The four WSU signees are also listed as the No. 2 class in the Pac-10, trailing only Oregon.
The Cougars signed four guards during the early signing period in November. Slated to take the hardwood for WSU next season are high schoolers Tommy Johnson from Los Angeles' Crenshaw High School and Marcus Moore from Dominguez Hills High School in Compton, Calif., and junior college transfers Jerry McNair (Fullerton College) and Kendall Minor (Southern Idaho). Both McNair and Minor will come in with three years of eligibility remaining.
"When it comes to recruiting, Bob Gibbons really knows what's going on," said WSU coach Paul Graham. "Obviously our focus is on this season and more immediately our game at Colorado State Thursday night, but being ranked speaks well of the type of players we are recruiting and signing to Washington State. You know you're doing a good job as a coaching staff if you are on Bob Gibbons' list."
St. John's had the nation's top class, followed by Seton Hall and Connecticut. Oregon was ranked 25th, just three spots higher than WSU. Other Pac-10 schools in the top 75 include No. 57 Stanford, No. 61 Washington and No. 72 Arizona State. The rest of the Pac-10, which ranked No. 7 among all conferences, included UCLA, Southern Cal, Oregon State and California. Arizona did not sign any recruits during the early period.
Other teams on WSU's schedule that made the top 75 include No. 71 Gonzaga, No. 60 Colorado State and No. 41 Nevada. Oklahoma State, where both Graham and assistant coach Randall Dickey coached before coming to WSU last spring, was ranked sixth.
WSU has one more newcomer who will join the four fall signees next year -- 6-10 center J Locklier who transferred from Miami, Ohio. Locklier must redshirt this season under NCAA transfer rules and will be a junior in 2000-01.

CUMC IT began offering Exchange accounts in 2008 in response to demand for a familiar software program that supported more seamless communication and collaboration across departments. Exchange and Outlook are the two elements that make up Microsoft's widely used email and calendaring program.
Requesting an Exchange Account
Please click here to submit the online Exchange Account Request form; ARC billing information and DA approval are required.
After your DA has approved the request, we will contact you to schedule a survey if desired.
Account Size and Cost
In order to support the costs of maintaining the Exchange server and provide adequate space for everyone using it, there is a fee of $134 per year for an account with the 1GB of space on the Exchange server.
Please note that Microsoft does not recommend mailboxes larger than 2GB for performance reasons. Messages can be moved or archived onto your computer's hard drive for permanent storage to avoid going over your Exchange quota. If you need to request more space on an existing account please contact us at extension 5-Help (212-305-4357), option 5.
Exchange and Columbia Email Addresses
Anyone receiving an Exchange account should set up email forwarding from general Columbia email account to their Exchange email address. This allows you to receive all of your work and/or academic-related emails in Exchange, rather than having to check two email accounts for messages.
You will still have your general Columbia email address (email@example.com) and can give that as your contact information if you prefer. When anyone sends a message to your general Columbia account, it will appear in your Exchange inbox and you can reply from there. Messages sent to your Exchange email address (email@example.com) will of course appear in your Exchange inbox as well.
Since most email programs only display a contact's name rather than the full email address, it will not matter to the recipient if you are sending from Exchange vs your general Columbia account. They will receive your message and not notice your specific sending address.
CUIT (Morningside) Exchange and CUMC
If you have been using CUIT Exchange but need access to CUMC Exchange calendars, we ask that you request CUMC IT Exchange account instead.

Dum Dum Girls
Dum Dum Girls' first Sub Pop single, "Jail La La," was released in early 2010, with the debut album I Will Be following soon after. Both recordings were mostly done by Dee Dee at home (with some help from Nick Zinner and Crocodiles' Brandon Welchez) and then expertly produced in the studio by Richard Gottehrer, who had formerly worked with the Go-Go's and Blondie. Before the album's release, Dee Dee teamed up with guitarist Jules, bassist Bambi, and drummer Frankie Rose (formerly of like-minded groups Crystal Stilts and Vivian Girls) to form a live band. Rose left the band in June of 2010 and was replaced by drummer named Sandra Vu, who was with the band when its fall tour of the U.S. was canceled due to the passing of Dee Dee's mother. After spending some time regrouping, the band began playing more shows as the year drew to a close.
In 2011, the He Gets Me High EP was released. Recorded just before her mother's death, the record was cut by Dee Dee without her band, and was produced again by Gottehrer with help from the Raveonettes' Sune Rose Wagner. On the personnel front, Bambi left the band in late 2011, making way for Malia James. A full-length sophomore album, Only in Dreams, appeared later that year. The album featured Dee Dee's bandmates for the first time and revolved around the pain of her mother's death. In autumn of 2012, End of Daze, an EP consisting of tracks recorded just after the Only in Dreams sessions, plus songs recorded a year later, was released. The band's third full-length record, 2014's Too True, was once again produced by Gottehrer and Wagner, but this time Dee Dee played and sang everything herself (with some help from Wagner). ~ Margaret Reges

Login to Review This Car
2005 Dodge Grand Caravan (14 Reviews)
I bought this new new on 9/11/04. The airbag light came on at 20k and Chrylser covered it. It was the airbag control module. Since then it's been replaced 5 times but I still have the problem about every 6 months. The Dodge dealership replaced the Occupant Restraint Controller Module and I'm still having problems with the airbag control module! Also I had to have the whole front end rebuilt, struts, swaybar bushings, tie rods etc just to get the "bump" out of the front end and this was done at 50k. This has cost me more money than I could sell it for so I'm stuck with it. I just wish it would catch on fire or be wrecked so I could get rid of it. I'll never buy another Chrysler product as long as I live!!
Dirt & Dust come in thru vents.........just bought a month ago and can't keep DUST out.........can chew dirt while driving and your eyes get filled with dirt... Took back in and they said the "rubber" around this vent in rear of van (after tearing my whole inside apart) wore out and needs replaced.... $375.00 and was MY expense, not theirs!!! I argued for over 1 1/2 hours that I bought this van a month ago not intending to put money into it for repairs right away. I would NEVER have bought this knowing it leaked DIRT/DUST and would cover everyone and everything inside when driving it!!! They now are telling me to pay my $100.00 deductable/fee and they'll pay the rest. Guess better than nothing!!! UGH>>>>>>>>>
Bought a 2005 Grand Caravan with around 32,000 miles about 5 years ago. I think I have sunk about $5,000 in repairs into it since I bought it. I will never buy another Chrysler product. I have had the transmission rebuilt (at around 65,000 miles), brake problems, coolant leaks, power locks that won't work and now it looks like it will need a new computer. What a piece of junk. Don't waste your money on one.
the 05 dodge grand caravan is the biggest peace of gunk iv ever owned . ive replace all the parts up front and still wonders all over the road . driving on wet roads water leaks into the floor bords and the stow and go compartments . and sucks gas like crazy . just build me a new 91 , best van ive ever owned but has rusted out and looks terable
Bought vehicle new,Like it very much, except had to replace front sway bar twice less than 50K miles (problem with mini vans),showing some rust bubble on paint, have seen other Caravans with same problem on hood at same spot,dealers will not respond .
I purchased a New 2005 Grand Canavan. The van is 6yrs old I had to replace the sway bar link 2 times, rack and pinon 3 times, struts 1 time, bushings 6 times. I don't suggest this van to anyone. I had nothing but problems, it is more in the dealership than I am driving the van. Good luck
This van has been an excellent proformer, It is loaded w/all the options and they work well, besides standard maintenance there have been no problems.
Lots of little electrical problems. Leaky power steering. Leaky radiator.
We got this van because the seats would fold flat in the floor. We have really enjoyed the extra space for vacationing. The problems we have with the van is the cup holders in the second seating area are unhandy. The front end is very noisey, alot of rattling when we go over the smallest bunp..
A decent family car. Spacious and functional.
My Wife and I enjoy this the drive it gives on long trips and around town. The Stow and go seats are great and easy to use. MPG is 18.9 which I is good for weight and size.
I bought this van because it was one of the first to come up with Stow N Go seats feature, where the seats fold down into the van leaving you with an entirely flat surface. It is incredibly convenient for transporting larger items. This van has been very reliable and we have taken many long trips with it.
I Love My Grand Caravan... Runs great, powerful, comfortable, and the Stow N Go Seating is just unbelievable.. Name one other vehicle that can have all of the seats for 7 people still in the van and still haul sheets of 4X8 plywood... if I find a bargain I just flip down as many seats as necessary and load it up. This also makes it the perfect road trip machine. 110,000 miles with only a water pump, oil changes and two sets of tires. And it averages 20 mpg in daily driving and has done 26 mpg on trips with 5 adults and all of our stuff on board. Simply the best all around vehicle that I know of.
We got this van because it had the stow n go seating. We have enjoyed the extra space . The extra space comes in handy on vacations. We don't like the second seat cup holders , they really are NOT in the best place. We also have alot of problems with the rattling noise that comes from under the front end of the van. You can hit the smallest bump and the front end sounds like it is going to fall off..

Quartet envoy to the Middle East says most in the Were seems 'curiously resistant' to face up to a force that 'is undermining the possibility of peaceful co-existence in an era of globalization.'

LONDON - The West should set aside its differences with Russia and China to focus on the growing threat from radical Islam, Tony Blair said Wednesday, in a speech that included a call to support Egypt's military government against its Muslim Brotherhood opponents.
The former British prime minister said that tackling "a radicalized and politicized view of Islam" should be at the top of the global political agenda.
He said many in the West seemed "curiously resistant" to face up to a force that "is undermining the possibility of peaceful co-existence in an era of globalization."

High-ranking Palestinian official slams Israeli president's upcoming meeting with US leader; says last few years have seen Peres 'disgrace himself' by promoting Israeli governments, policies opposing peace
Ali Waked

President Shimon Peres' meetings
with US President Barack Obama and other White House officials later this week have the Palestinian Authority up in arms, as a senior Palestinian official told Ynet that "over the past few years, Peres has become the 'besom' for radical Israeli governments."
"Even the withdrawal from Hebron was done by the current (Israeli) prime minister, and Peres is now trying to 'launder' him in the eyes of the US administration."
The international community must stop lauding Peres and a person dedicated to peace, he added, "since his is, in fact, obstructing the peace process by trying to market governments and policies which oppose peace."

Document Imaging
Document imaging is the conversion of paper documents into electronic images on your computer. Once on your desktop, these documents can be retrieved effortlessly in seconds. Thousands of organizations around the world use document imaging every day instead of paper filing systems. The reasons for this change are simple: Document Imaging: o Prevents lost records o Saves storage space o Manages records easily With document imaging on your computer: o Documents are found quickly o Images are available to all o File cabinets magically disappear The steps necessary to introduce document imaging are simple: Documents are scanned into the system. The document imaging system stores them somewhere on a hard drive or optical disk. The documents then get indexed. When a person later wants to read a document, they use the retrieval tools available in the document imaging system. Where they can read the documents, and who can read the documents is dependent on the access provided by the document imaging system. Scanning Major advancements in scanning technology make paper document conversion fast, inexpensive, and easy. A good scanner will make putting paper files into the your computer easy. Storage The storage system provides long-term and reliable storage for documents. A good storage system will accommodate changing documents, growing volumes and advancing technology. Indexing The index system creates an organized document filing system and makes future retrieval simple and efficient. A good indexing system will make existing procedures and systems more effective. Retrieval The retrieval system uses information about the documents, including index and text, to find images stored in the system. A good retrieval system will make finding the right documents fast and easy. Access Document viewing should be readily available to those who need it, with the flexibility to control access to system. A good access system will make documents viewable to everyone, whether in the office, at different locations, or over the Internet.
Automated Forms Processing
What is Forms Processing Anyway ? Automated Forms Processing is a technology that enables the user to process documents from their images or directly from paper and convert them to computer readable data (usually ASCII). Not to be confused with basic OCR, Forms Processing packages do a lot more than just Recognition of data (OCR/ICR/OMR/BarCodes, etc). While Forms Processing packages will give you Recognition capabilities, they also manage the complete life cycle of the document from scanning to extract and sometimes even include Image Archive and Retrieval. Note to site submitters - If your company offers multiple products and services please indicate the URL that refers to the Forms Processing system you offer.

The taste was really good for the cake, but the cake didn't hold together with just the Dr. Pepper. The icing was very light. Does not taste like regular cream cheese icing at all, but was a nice light option if you really want cake.
only adding Dr. Pepper to cake mix seem odd, cakes are not as fluffy as made with oil, taste good, added more than 1 teaspoon to cup cake papers I added about 1/3 of a cup. I also made a double batch of frosting. For the 24 cupcakes I made.
I made these with a can of coke zero and tasted great too !
These are amazing! I look forward to making them again.

Fans Offer MOTHER 3 Translation to Nintendo for Free - NewsVGChartz Staff, posted on 21 April 2013 / 2,968 Views
After news this week broke that Nintendo will bring EarthBound to the Wii U Virtual Console in the west later this year, the fervent fanbase of the series has floated an offer to Nintendo intended to build on that development. Clyde Mandelin, the professional translator who spearheaded the efforts of an unofficial fan translation of MOTHER 3, the sequel to EarthBound in Japan, is willing to turn over his manuscripts for free if it means a MOTHER 3 release on the Virtual Console outside of Japan.
Here we see Lucas, of Super Smash Bros. Brawl fame, in his natural habitat.
"This is the first time Nintendo has seriously acknowledged the series' existence in a marked way outside of Japan in 18 years," said Mandelin on his EarthBound blog EarthBound Central, suggesting momentum could be everything in terms of a MOTHER 3 release. "I realize that localizing a game this size can cost a lot, so if it'll help in even the slightest, I'll gladly offer to let Nintendo use my text translation files for any use at all, completely for free. I'll even edit the files to fit whatever new standards are necessary...I'll even retranslate everything from scratch if need be. Just whatever it takes to get an official release out."
Ness is now older than the demographic he targeted at release.
The MOTHER 3 fan translation got its start after the release of the title in Japan in 2006, followed by clear indications from Nintendo that there were no plans to localize it for other markets. A team of EarthBound enthusiasts then got to work on a high-quality English translation, which was released in 2008.
Mandelin admits the offer is unlikely to yield results, "I definitely realize this is a silly-sounding offer and all, but I figure it's better to make the offer and seem silly than possibly miss an opportunity entirely." However, he does cite precedent for such an occurrence, "It might seem unlikely for a legitimate company to use a fan translation or work with fan translators, but it has happened before – Ys: The Oath in Felghana."
In other EarthBound news, the Virtual Console release of the cult classic is expected to be an unchanged port, suggesting Nintendo either no longer cares about possible copyright infringements related to some samples used in the game's music or has resolved such concerns.

Wabash Scores in 22 Possible Swims in Friday Competition
Howard W. Hewitt - Canton, Ohio - With a huge freshman and sophomore class, Wabash swim coach Peter Casares knows there is a learning curve. His team passed one test, but will have to continue to show improvement to make up distance on Kenyon and Denison in future NCAC meets.
The Little Giants entered the day with 22 scheduled swims where they could score points in the night's finals. Remarkably, that's just what happened when the second night of finals concluded.
"The highlight of the day was having 22 possible swims scoring this morning scoring and having all 22 come back tonight, that's the first time that's happened since I've been here," Casares said."What we need to do is to do a better job at night and find a way to improve."
Wabash had some great evening swims but many of the swimmers were not able to substantially improve their times from the preliminaries. But there was still plenty of positive performances.
"We did have some spectacular swims from Adam Petro and Tony Caldwell, both relays did great, and Rob Fenoglio's diving was wonderful. Casares said. "Our depth is one of our keys and we can get better at improving at night."
The 200 medley relay team opened the night's competition with a second-place finish and 1;34.71 swim that knocked five seconds off their morning performance. The time puts the relay in possible position for a trip to Nationals. They made the "B" cut as possible alternates.
It was also a good day for senior Tony Caldwell whose 100 backstroke swim earned him a "B" cut also with a fourth place swim.
Brent Graham and Elijah Sanders scored in the top 12 of the 400 individual medley. Adam Petro swam to a fifth place finish in the butterfly, just missing the national cut time. Five Little Giants scored in the 200 free paced by Jordon Blackwell's seventh in the A final.
Rob Fenoglio claimed a sixth in the three-meter diving and will return to the board Saturday in the 1 meter competition.
So the positive results become a building block. Casares acknowledges it's one thing to qualify in 22 races in the morning preliminaries, but quite different to come back at night and substantially drop times.
"There is a huge learning curve," the coach said. "There's no faster meet in the country and its extremely difficult to swim against talent that will be placing in the Division III championships. When you have a young team competing against this type of talent you learn about a whole new level of swimming and it takes some time to adjust to that."
A note about photos: I'll post some Friday night photos up early on Saturday. A very small technical glitch. Also tomorrow, will try to get a posting up about the Wabash staff people who've been here helping run the meet. Each NCAC school takes a turn hosting at McKinley High School. The high school is less than a mile from Canton's best known attraction, the Pro Football Hall of fame.

By Kyle Woodlief, Special for USA TODAY
A funny thing happened on the way to the coronation party for the "Dukes of Windsor," aka Taylor Hall and Cam Fowler. An uninvited guest from the colonies crashed the party.
We know it's only four weeks in and this may be controversial, but Tyler Seguin's performance, dating all the way back to August's Team Canada U-18 evaluation camp and the subsequent gold medal performance at the Ivan Hlinka Eight Nations tourney, means that the Plymouth star has ascended and currently sits atop Red Line's early-season rankings. Before you laugh, hear out our reasoning.
It's simple: Seguin has just been on fire. He is presently leading the OHL in scoring with staggering 15-11-26 totals in only 12 games. He has recorded a point in each of his team's games and has been in on over 60% of Plymouth's goals thus far. He is the Whalers' unquestioned main man and, with the injury to R.J. Mahalak, has elevated his game and put the entire Whalers' squad on his back.
Plus, he's doing all this without the support of a star studded lineup like Hall and Fowler benefit from in Windsor.
We're not taking anything away from Hall or Fowler. We just feel that Seguin has to be rewarded for achieving an incredibly high level of play and sustaining it for over two months. At Red Line, we reported that he looked like a man among boys in dominating Team Canada's camp, and he was clearly the Hlinka tournament's dominant force in Slovakia. Whether or not Seguin can maintain this level of play for an entire season remains to be seen, but for now he has earned the right to be our No. 1.
Off the Record— News-'n-Notes from around the scouting community:
The season in the Quebec League has started off with some pleasant surprises. Red Line wasn't expecting much depth at all in this year's Q crop, but some unexpected performances have given us a bit rosier outlook thus far.
Jumping up out of nowhere were a pair of big, smooth centers that RLR had not previously been aware of. First off, there's towering Louis-Marc Aubry of the Montreal Junior. At a gangly 6-4/193, Aubry has a surprisingly quick burst and a long, powerful stride that eats up ground. He's good laterally as well and uses his long reach and agility to beat defenders and create off the rush. He's already receiving time on the top PP unit and is averaging a point per game. He looks like a keeper and is certainly a nice addition to our list.
Next up is Danick Gauthier from St. John. At 6-2/183, he's not quite as large as Aubry, but still has fine size and natural athleticism and plays a flashier offensive game. He's got tremendously soft hands and slick moves that make him dangerous in 1-on-1 situations and loves to use the spin-a-rama directly into a deceptive backhander. Gauthier is very involved in the offensive end and creates loads of chances, heading straight to net where he can use his long reach and good body positioning around the crease.
And finally, there's Shawinigan's Michael Bournival who, while not an unknown, has certainly shown much more offense than we would have expected in the early going, among the league leaders with 16 points in 14 games. We were not encouraged by his Team Canada U-18 camp performance in August, but he's making believers of us now.
Warroad (Minn.) High School power center Brock Nelson recently committed to the University of North Dakota, and the Fighting Sioux can really count this one as a coup in smuggling the emerging star out of state right from under the noses of the Minnesota Golden Gophers.
Nelson, who is currently playing this fall in the Midwest Elite League until the local high school season starts in about six weeks, is one of Red Line's favorite early line sleepers for the 2010 Draft. Not many scouts outside of Minnesota have ever heard of him, and he didn't blossom until last season, so he's never been a part of the whole U.S. select process. So he may suffer from underexposure for now, but that won't last much longer.
Nelson, 6-2/205, with a great stride and powerful shot, also has a very strong bloodline in the sport. His uncle is Dave Christian, one of the key scoring cogs on the 1980 U.S. Olympic gold medal-winning squad. Christian is also a former UND All-American and won a national championship with the Sioux before launching an NHL career that spanned over 1000 games and nearly 800 points, so he likely had some influence on young Nelson's decision.
Hungarian forward Janos Hari, a late sleeper in our rankings, started the season on a hot streak. Hari plays for Färjestad in the Swedish J-18 league and also started last season well, causing RLR's Swedish scout to make a few special trips. What he saw were some very fine skills in the body of a tiny puck wizard.
We almost wrote him off due to his small stature (5-9/159) and the fact that when the competition got stiffer during the spring, his production dropped dramatically.
This season is still very young and Färjestad won't face the better teams until later in the year, but Hari's stats so far are hard to ignore: in just five league games he has put up an astounding 14 goals and five assists. The little sparkplug darts into holes with lots of speed. His super-soft hands and slick moves force defenders to back off and give ground every time he approaches the blueline and he has the vision to find linemate Erik Thorell once the D swarms. So Thorell actually benefits to the tune of a league-leading 21 points (5G, 16A).
We'll keep you posted on how this interesting duo plays when they face some tougher opposition later on.
Alex Burmistrov (Barrie) — Took no time at all adjusting to the North American game, exploding out of the gate for 20 points in first 12 games. Already running Barrie's lethal power play.
Brock Beukeboom (Sault Ste. Marie) — We expected the rock steady play and physicality in his own end. What we didn't expect was more than a point per game offensive production.
Charlie Coyle (South Shore) — Was a dominant force at the EJHL's opening showcase. Has terrifically soft hands to go along with his size and skills. Can dangle with the best of them, just needs to improve his quickness off the mark.
Ryan Johansen (Portland) — Apparently that strong playoff run in the BCHL last Spring was no fluke. Shows a fine combination of size and playmaking ability.
Christian Thomas (Oshawa) — Bloodlines don't lie. He's a chip off the old block, and like his father, Steve, looks like he'll overcome the lack of size with pugnacious play, intelligence, and a great shot.
Denis Kindl (Gatineau) — Slightly built and we thought he'd struggle handling the physicality at first, but he came out of the chute firing on all cylinders and has led the Olympiques to a flying start.
Mark Stone (Brandon) — Not making Team Canada for the Eight Nations in August was a disappointment. Now he'll miss the next six weeks with a broken thumb.
Here is Red Line's preliminary identification list of the top draft eligible prospects for the NHL's 2010 Entry Draft in Los Angeles next June 25-26:

Maybe y'all can help me out with a few questions. A little prelude -- It's been two months since I was out of the saddle for 10 years or so. When I was riding initially, I was on a Bianchi with downtube shifters and toe-clipped pedals -- brifters and clipless pedals hadn't been invented yet. So there have been a lot of changes in bike technology that I'm trying to catch up on.
My first questions are about bottom brackets. I'm currently riding a Trek 1000; would that frame take an older-style "European" (as they were called BITD) bottom bracket? Or have bottom brackets changed to the point where modern frames won't take the older "European" bottom brackets?
My second questions relate to brifters. The Trek 1000 comes with Sora brifters; the 2203 front deraileur leaves a lot to be desired. I've got a line on a Campagnolo Veloce front deraileur (for triple-sprocketed cranks); would it work with the Sora brifters? Or would I be best to get the matching Veloce rear deraileur, cassette, and brifters to upgrade them all at the same time?
