Her husband Kurt Cobain's remains have been stolen from her home and she finds it "disgusting" that she's suicidal over it.
The remains of legendary musician Kurt Cobain have been stolen, according to his distraught widow Courtney Love. The ashes of the late musician were taken from her Los Angeles home, it's been reported.
Love kept Cobain's ashes in a pink bag shaped like a teddy bear, along with a lock of his hair. However, she was devastated to find the bag and thousands of dollars worth of jewelery missing after thieves broke into her home late last month, Britain's News of the World newspaper reported. Clothes were also stolen from her home.
"I can't believe anyone would take Kurt's ashes from me," Love stated. "I find it disgusting right now I'm suicidal. If I don't get them back I don't know what I'll do."
She went on saying, "They were all I had left of my husband. I used to take them everywhere with me just so I could feel Kurt was still with me. Now it feels like I have lost him all over again."
Cobain, the lead singer and guitarist of rock band Nirvana, committed suicide in April 1994. He was 27.

A CLOSER LOOK AT THE USA: A total of 17 different universities are represented on the American roster. Portland, with their trio of Michelle Enyeart, Elli Reed and Keelin Winters and North Carolina, represented by Meghan Klingenberg and Nikki Washington, are the only two schools to send more than one player to Chile. Due to the overlap of the event with the NCAA season, several players who were a part of the team that successfully qualified for the tournament in June are not able to travel to Chile because of commitments to their college programs.
U.S. U-20 WWC Roster by Position
GOALKEEPERS (3): Chantel Jones (Virginia), Alyssa Naeher (Penn State), Cat Parkhill (Minnesota)
DEFENDERS (6): Kiersten Dallsteam (Washington State), Kaley Fountain (Wake Forest), Lauren Fowlkes (Notre Dame), Liz Harkin (Arizona State), Meghan Klingenberg (North Carolina), Nikki Marshall (Colorado)
MIDFIELDERS (6): Gina DiMartino (Boston College), Becky Edwards (Florida State), Christine Nairn (Bowie, Md.), Elli Reed (Portland), Ingrid Wells (Georgetown), Keelin Winters (Portland)
FORWARDS (5): Michelle Enyeart (Portland), Sydney Leroux (UCLA), Alyssa Mautz (Texas A&M), Alex Morgan (California), Nikki Washington (North Carolina)
CHECKING OUT THE OPPONENT: The USA's first opponent in Group B, France, is poised to be one of the breakout teams of the tournament. After a disappointing fourth place finish during the 2007 Under-19 European Championship, France comes to Chile with a purpose. Scoring eight goals in four matches last year in Iceland, the French have since been focused on shoring up their defense. Entering their third world championship at this level, France hopes to use their experience from the 2006 edition where they advanced to the quarterfinals for the first time.
France Roster by Position
GOALKEEPERS (3): 1-Meline Gerard, 16-Karima Benameur, 21-Alisson Branger
DEFENDERS (6): 2-Gwenaelle Butel, 3-Emilie Gonssollin, 4-Wendie Renard, 5-Laura Agard, 12-Livia Jean, 13-Delphine Chatelin,
MIDFIELDERS (7): 6-Charlotte BilBault, 8-Melissa Plaza, 14-Ludivine Bultel, 15-Kheria Hamraoui, 17-Nora Coton Pelagie, 18-Marine Pervier, 19-Alix Faye Chellali
FORWARDS (5): 7-Charlotte Loze, 9-Marie-Laure Delie, 10-Eugenie Le Sommer, 11-Julie Machart, 20-Fanny Tenret
Quick Hits:
- Michelle Enyeart leads the U.S. in goals in 2008 with 10. Alex Morgan is second on the team with six goals on the year.
- The U.S. U-20 Women's National Team is one of only five teams to have qualified for every edition of the FIFA U-20 WWC. The other four countries: Australia, Germany, Brazil and Canada.
- The first two tournaments at this level were 12-team events held as U-19 World Championships. In 2006, FIFA expanded the tournament to 16 teams and made it a U-20 World Cup.
- Tracey Leone (nee Bates) is the only female to ever win a world title as a player (FIFA Women's World Cup 1991) and as a coach (FIFA U-19 WWC 2002).
- The fastest goal in the history of the tournament was scored by Angie Woznuk in the second minute against Russia in 2004. She narrowly edged Megan Kakadelas, who scored in the third minute of the USA's game against Chinese Taipei in 2002.
- The U.S. has lost only one of 18 matches in regulation time (2004 semifinal against Germany, a 3-1 loss).
- The U.S. has faced France once before at this level, in the group phase of the 2006 event. A Jessica Rostedt goal gave the U.S. 1-0 victory.
- Lindsay Tarpley scored the first goal in the history of the tournament against England in 2002. She also scored the final goal of that tournament in the 109th minute in overtime of the Final to win the inaugural FIFA World Cup at this age level.
- France holds an all-time record at this tournament of 3-4-0 in seven overall matches, with their best-ever finish of seventh place coming two years ago.
- France finished fourth in European qualifying, falling to Germany in extra time of the semifinals.
HOW WE GOT HERE: The U.S. earned their place in Chile during a successful run through CONCACAF Qualifying in June. Scoring 20 goals en route to the championship match against rival Canada, the U.S. allowed their first goal of the tournament and fell, 1-0. Michelle Enyeart led the team in qualifying with six goals in five games, including a hat trick in the opener against Trinidad & Tobago. Mexico joins both Canada and the U.S. in representing CONCACAF, having won the third place game against Costa Rica in overtime.
WORLD CUP MARKS RETURN TO CHILE: The U.S. returns to Chile for the first time since the Four Nations Tournament in February. The U.S. will look to repeat the success of that tournament, which they won by dominating the hosts, 5-1 in their third and final game. The U.S. also posted wins against Norway (2-1) and England (1-0) during their time in La Serena.
THE LEGACY: The FIFA Under-20 Women's World Cup has become one of the marquee youth events on the FIFA Calendar and the U.S. women have played a major role in all three previous editions of the tournament. Stars that have shined in previous editions include Canada's Christie Sinclair, Brazil's Marta and the USA's Lindsay Tarpley, who captained the team to the first ever championship win in 2002. Read more about the legacy of the U-20 Women's World Cup here.
LAST LINE OF DEFENSE: U.S. Under-20 WNT first-choice 'keeper Alyssa Naeher is preparing for the FIFA Under-20 Women's World Cup in Chile as one of the world's top goalkeepers for her age group. The Penn State All-American sat down with ussoccer.com to talk about growing up as a goalkeeper, not filling the position's stereotype and her identical twin sister.

Cynthia Gallatin, associate vice president for online programs at Quinnipiac University, said mobile video ads are still novel enough to make an impact on viewers.
Sixty-five percent of mobile searchers participating in a recent survey reported noticing ads, and 59 percent of those mobile users found ads useful, Gallatin told the E-Commerce Times.
Users enjoyed the ads' relevancy, brevity and fast loading times, she said.
"I believe businesses will want to include video within their mobile ads, since consumers are using their mobile devices extensively for personal and business purposes," Gallatin said. "This will be a phenomenal way for businesses to capture the attention of prospective customers and increase the conversion rate for action."

"We bought these to compliment the Dappled Glade Signature Wedding Invitations, and they performed perfectly! We used the card to send out information about RSVPing, the reception site, and a note to see our wedding website. We ended up changing the Header font to match that used in the text body, and centered all of our text. I would highly recommend ordering the 8 free sample invites from WPD - it comes with a paper texture information booklet that is extremely helpful!"
"These are adorable cards, perfect for that extra memo for your guests. They are on the smaller side, so try to limit the length of the message. I used these for our wedding website address, and just wish our website address we used was shorter so it didn't look like it was running off the card. Otherwise I love these cards!"
"We used this enclosure card to include some additional details for our guests. This card is the same size as the rsvp card, which is my only negative comment. I would have liked if it was slightly larger to give some variation in sizes. Also, this card came with free envelopes which I thought was strange - in most wedding invitations this card has hotel information (or something similar) and would never need to be mailed back. Nonetheless, I accepted the free envelopes and hope to use them casually."
"Love that you can work with a designer to customize the design. We wanted a different color for some of the text. The designers went through a few back and forths till we got the design just right. I appreciate the time they took to listen. End product was just what we wanted."
"I was able to reformat the templates to suit our needs for an extra enclosure card. The request was received quickly and within minutes I had the blank card to personalize. Quick, efficient and beautiful. Thanks Divas!"

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
Hi. I'm Smitty. I am a professional appliance repair consultant here to help you diagnose, and repair, your appliance.
Put it back together but leave access to the pump. Start the unit and let it fill some. Set it to a drain cycle and measure the voltage to the pump. You should have 110vac. If you do not then replace the main conrtrol board. If you have 110vac at the pump see if it actually pumps the water out before you get the error code. If it does then the water level pressur switch is the problem. Pull the hose off of it and blow through it. It should be clear. If not clear it, or replace it. If the hose is clear then replace the presure switch.
If you would like any additional information or have more questions please don't hesitate to ask!
IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ.You should NEVER have to use use either "Helped a little" or "I expected more", unless you feel that I really screwed up the answer. Both leave a permanent black mark on my customer satisfaction rating. Instead, please reply to me via the REPLY or CONTINUE CONVERSATION button and I will do anything short of lie to you or commit a homicide to make you happy.Thank you, Smitty
Ok below is the flow chart for the OE error code. Check these items and if all ok please let me know.
This is the formula for the water frequency readings.
Press the CUSTOM and PRE-WASH buttons simultaneously. The digits indicate the water level frequency.For example, if the display indicate 41, the water level frequency is 20+(41X0.1) = 24.1 kHz.
Thanks Smitty. I'm not going to be able to get back on this till tomorrow. It's 11 PM here. I've never used this site before so I have one more question. I feel like you've answered my original question very well. I mentioned that if it got into electronics on the board, I'd probably be in over my head. As a contractor the last thing I want to do is take advantage of your time, so how do I handle this? I want to be sure you get paid for this, but can I come back to you after I've tried some of these steps when I put the washer back together tomorrow or would that be going beyond my original question? I trust your answer on this, your reputation speaks for itself.
Tim, go ahead and do what you feel comfortable doing and then if you want I will walk you through the rest. Rating me now will not close the question. You can ask all the followup questions you like untill we get this resolved.
Im thinking that the pump is not getting voltage from the main control board. If that is the case then testing the pump for proper ohms reading, and then for voltage at the control board is the only way to know.
I agree. I don't see what else it could be but a voltage problem coming from the board. I won't know until tomorrow but I'm assuming I can put everything back together but leave the control panel haning where I can access the board. Thanks again. Job well done!
Good point, I'll do that. Thanks again.
You are welcome Tim. Let me know if you need anything else. Ill be on most of the day tomorrow.
Have a good evening. =)
Hey Smitty, are you online?
I measured the ohms on the motor leads. I'm getting 27.7. The manual page you posted said it should be 10 - 20 ohms. I haven't put everything back together yet. The manual says to replace the pump assembly. Does it sound like that will fix the problem or will I not know until I button it up, put the existing assembly in and check the voltage?
If the ohms reading is high then the motor is probably on the way out. You can button it up and test at the control board, but if the board shows good you will have to tear it apart again to replace pump motor.
This time it is your decission, Tim.
Hey Smitty,
I want to give you an excellent rating but I don't see where to do that.
Nothing to do with your service, but a general complaint about the industry. I'm flustered. I've been pricing that little drain pump and I can't believe that little nothing motor encased in plastic is $60.00. What a racket these appliance parts are. I know they have to make a living, but I compare everything to what I sell and there's no comparison. I'll sell a 125 amp panel for about that price and it will last 30 years.
Sorry, just had to get that out of my system. If you would tell me how to do the rating I'll get right on it.
Thanks again for the help.
I was going to try one more thing and I realized the page you posted from the manual wasn't for my model. I want to try to check the water level frequency using the CUSTOM button and the PRE-WASH button, but my model doesn't have a custom button. Is there any other button I can use to try this?
LG Model WM2487HWM
Tim I am so sorry but this is the first I have seen of your replies!
You have already rated me so dont worry about that.
This is a definate glitch in the system and I will be informing our staff about it.
I have to step out for about an hour or so. I will give your question my complete attention at that time.
Sorry for the inconvienience.
WOW! this is the first time that the drain hose itself turned out to be the problem. If it gets clogged then you bet it affects the drain system.
Of course it is ironic that every drain problem solution starts out with "check that the drain hose is clear and unobstructed".
Sometimes you just gotta go back to the basics and get schooled again.
Glad you got it going, Tim.
Best, Smitty

David Stern believes the New York Knicks are "loaded" and he is also hoping they form a budding rivalry with the Brooklyn Nets.
"They are loaded, and that's why the Nets decided to load up," said Stern.
"I would say that they're loaded still, but Amar'e Stoudemire being out six to eight weeks is a real potential game-changer, and they may be loaded in different ways," Stern said. "They have a replacement for Jeremy. ... I think the pundits that know more than I do were picking them preseason to do pretty well in that conference."
With the Nets moving to Brooklyn, the rivalry with the Knicks figures to intensify.
"I think the competition level is going to be wonderful for fans," Stern said. "I think it's great and it's going to propel the league to better situations."

Big Macs prove too much for Plum
Friday's homecoming game surely didn't play out as the fans of Plum hoped.
The game ended in a 17-7 loss to Quad Central opponent Canon-McMillan and was marred by a fight in the fourth quarter. Senior Canon-McMillan linebacker Alec Rideout was ejected along with Plum senior offensive tackle Dante Palmieri.
"From my viewpoint, (Rideout) swung on (Palmieri), and (Palmieri) swung back and retaliated, and that turned into what the big scuffle was," Plum coach Matt Morgan said.
"I had to run out onto the field because no one was stopping it. The refs weren't stopping it."
The fight occurred after Mustangs running back Nathan Turchick scored on a 1-yard plunge. Rideout and Palmieri will be suspended for one game.
Hopes of a comeback followed for Plum (0-5, 0-5). The Mustangs got the ball back at their 36, and quarterback Will Fuhrer moved the ball through the air all the way to the Canon-McMillan 14, before a false start penalty and a sack pushed Plum out of field-goal range.
A dropped touchdown pass on fourth down sealed the first win of the year for Canon-McMillan (1-4, 1-3).
"We practiced hard this week," Canon-McMillan coach Ron Coder said. "The kids worked hard, and I'm glad we got this win for them.
"It builds confidence for them going into next week. I'm disappointed how we played down in that melee down there, but overall I was pleased with our performance."

Quote Of The Day: Cindy Crawford Is Trying To Kill The Magazine Industry
"If you don't like something, don't buy it. Don't buy the magazine if you don't like what it says. If you don't like the image a brand is putting out, don't buy it. What I really don't agree with is people who complain about it but still support it. You're giving your power away. If people don't want skinny models, stop buying the magazine with the skinny model, and believe me those magazines will change fast. It's business."
– Supermodel Cindy Crawford recommends boycotting fashion mags that only use skeletal models, making her Conde Nast/Hearst/Hachette Fillipacci enemy number one. [Huffington Post]

Does Billy Joel Need an Intervention?
Former supermodel Christie Brinkley and the Piano Man Billy Joel have been divorced since 1994 but that hasn't stopped Brinkley from being concerned about her ex. After Joel was photographed at a Florida restaurant with a glass of wine, Brinkley has been trying to no avail to stage an intervention to help her ex who completed stints in rehab in 2002 and 2005. A source told the National Enquirer, "Billy is playing with fire by continuing to drink . . . He's semi-retired now and plays very few concerts. Christie knows Billy, and when he's bored he turns to drinking."
Brinkley has approached the couple's daughter Alexa Ray and Joel's current girlfriend, Alexis Roderick, to try to get them on board but she hasn't been able to get them to take a stand.
The source explained, "Alexis believes Christie may be well-meaning, but thinks she's being a control freak and that Billy can handle his drinking now. She tells Christie until she really sees a problem, let him have his glass of wine – he's earned it . . . Alexa doesn't want to confront her dad, either. She wants to maintain a good relationship. But there's a big fear that Billy's headed down a slippery slope by drinking at all."

Volbeat Live In Dallas [Video]
While we were partying down at Avalanche last Wednesday (Apr. 13th), Volbeat was tearing it up at the House of Blues in Dallas. I keep hearing good things about their live show but for obvious reasons couldn't make the trip. Their new album "Beyond Hell/Above Heaven" dropped Nov. 9th as a digital and the physical came out Dec. 15th. For those who couldn't make it enjoy a taste of what we missed.

As you grow older you are going to be making more decisions that impact your life. Where you go to college, whether your play soccer or volleyball and who you choose as a date to the dance are all a few examples. While every decision may seem small, they contribute to help form the young adult you're becoming.
One decision you may face is whether or not you're ready to have sex. This is a personal decision that will have a significant impact on your life. It requires maturity and you need to be able to think about your decision and how it might impact your life. As a teenager, you have a lot going on. Making the decision to have sex may not be something your ready for. You may not have a fully developed brain with the capability to make the right decisions to prevent teenage pregnancy.
Read below to learn more about your development and how it might affect you making right decisions.
Your Brain is Still Developing: Babies on the Teenage Brain
It's a fact: Teens and adults do not have the same brains. They think and reason in different ways. Until you get past your early 20s, part of your brain (the prefrontal cortex) is NOT FULLY DEVELOPED! That is the part of your brain that controls judgment, planning for the future and understanding the consequences of your actions (like preventing teenage pregnancy). Your whole life may hang in the balance, but your brain has not yet fully developed to think through your choices and make decisions based on giving you the best outcome in the long term.
You Get Caught-up In the Moment: Hot & Sticky Situation
Fast forward to a weekend in the future. You're dating a guy and find yourself alone with him in a car. You're feeling waves of desire and emotions you feel may be love. You weren't prepared for this situation and you don't have condoms, you're not taking birth control, and you have no way of preventing a pregnancy. You're caught up in the moment. You won't go all the way, right?
According to statistics, there's a good chance you might. Your underdeveloped prefrontal cortex in your brain should be screaming about disease, teenage pregnancy, rejection and gossip all over the school. Instead, your feelings may likely take over completely. You love the intensity, romance, risk and living for the moment, but your brain may not be equipped to warn you that this may be self-destructive behavior.
Focus on Your Long Term Interests
It's hard to believe that you are not yet capable of making wise decisions for yourself or that your brain is not yet up to the careful calculations needed to act on your own best long-term interests. Just remember: Even your most cherished longings and emotions could push you to make decisions that feel good today but you'll regret tomorrow. If you focus on your long-term interest and who you want to be, you can make some good decisions that will help you get there.
Feeling torn? Find an adult you trust and talk to him/her about your future, your boyfriend, and risks of pregnancy. Try to postpone ALL-important decisions until you've had time to talk things over with the adult. And in even the most heated situations, remember to focus on your future and make the right decision.

2 cups [500 ml] flour
6 oz [170 g] butter
5 tbsp [75 ml] sugar
¼ tsp [pinch] salt
1 egg
1 egg yolk
For the tart
½ cup [125 ml] butter, softened
½ cup [125 ml] sugar
2 eggs
½ cup [125 ml] all-purpose flour
2 oz [56 g] finely ground almonds
1 tsp [5 ml] almond extract
4 apples, peeled and sliced 1/8-inch thick (any variety of apple that you would use in a pie would do just fine)
First, prepare the crust. Mix the flour, butter, sugar and salt in the bowl of a food processor until combined. Add the diced butter and pulse until butter pieces are the size of edamame. Add the egg and egg yolk and mix until the dough starts coming together. If the dough seems to lack moisture, add 1 tablespoon [15 ml] of very cold water and pulse again. Turn the dough out onto a work surface and gather it together in a large disk. Wrap in plastic and chill for 20 minutes before rolling.
Preheat the oven to 350ºF [175ºC]. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a circle slightly bigger than your tart pan (preferably an 11-inch [28-cm] fluted pan). Put the dough into the pan and press the dough into the corners all the way around, and remove any overhanging dough from the sides. Patch any holes in the crust with the dough scraps.
Blind bake the pie crust: Line the tart shell with a large circle of parchment paper. Fill it with pie weights and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, take out the pie weights and the paper together, and bake again for about 10 minutes, or until the bottom of the crust is cooked, but has not darkened. Let the crust cool while you prepare the filling. Leave the oven on.
Beat the butter and sugar together in an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, beat for one more minute. Finally, beat in the flour, almonds, and almond extract, stopping to scrape the sides of the mixing bowl if necessary. Spread this mixture in an even layer into the baked tart shell. Begin arranging the sliced apples around the side in overlapping concentric circles, until the entire top of the tart is covered. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the center of the tart is firm and fully cooked. Remove from the oven and cool completely before slicing.

Remember that child's game, "Button, button, who's got the button"? Kids form in a circle, and one child goes around with a button in hand, pretending to drop it into each child's hand in turn, but secretly only puts it into one. Everybody then guesses who has the button. Even the one who has the button guesses somebody else to deflect the truth. Eventually, though, the one who has it must 'fess up if pointed out, and becomes the next to distribute the button.
Well, we seem to have the farcical bureaucratic equivalent of the game going on and, as usual, it involves the ICE-house gang. ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), as you know, is the agency within Homeland Security that, under Director John Morton's leadership has become the Keystone Kops of the federal set.
- First, we get news that there's a game of chicken going on between the President and Congress with regard to the looming sequestration cuts to see who will blink first: the White House and its cabinet officers playing at "the sky is falling" with their version of all the evil that will befall the American public if Congress doesn't give, while our legislators pooh-pooh that notion and imply that all will be just fine; agencies will certainly be wise enough to figure out where to apportion their mandatory share of the cuts in a way that hurts no one.
- Next, we hear that ICE, anticipating the sequestration, goes ahead and releases hundreds of detained aliens — many of them described as "minor" alien criminals. We are left wondering, first, why they were holding "minor" criminals since, under Morton's watch, ICE agents are obliged daily to walk away from aliens arrested for misdemeanor crimes — even if, in the eyes of us untutored rubes who make up the American public, the crimes don't seem so minor at all. And we also wonder why this is news since — also under Morton's watch, and at his direction — ICE trial attorneys have done massive purges of their caseloads, filing motions with immigration judges all over the country to dump cases, resulting in untold thousands of "minor" alien offenders walking the streets with no likelihood at all of being deported.
- Then we hear that the President has disassociated himself from that decision, with White House Press Secretary Jay Carney saying that the White House staff had no knowledge of, or involvement in, the decision. This is very hard to believe, given that Cecilia Munoz — presently director of the White House's Domestic Policy Council, and previously White House director of intergovernmental affairs — before joining government was a senior official in the pro-immigrant organization National Council of La Raza, and even now is the White House's point person and chief overseer of the administration's immigration policies. But, let's go with that version for the moment.
- Then comes an Associated Press article pointing out that Gary Mead, who runs the division of ICE most directly involved in immigration enforcement ("Enforcement Removal Operations"), has promptly retired, clearly implying that Mead is the mid-level executive taking the fall for this un-cleared decision. For anyone at all familiar with Mead and his career, that's also a hard sell. Mead is the ultimate man-in-the-gray-flannel-suit. Taking such a decision upon himself stretches credibility to the breaking point; far more likely that he was told what to do by Morton and his small, closed circle of front office minions.
- Then Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano goes on network evening news to proclaim in an interview that, like the White House, neither she nor her staff had anything to do with the decision to release all those offenders.
- Now, we have an article seeping into the media that suggests that Mead's decision to retire, whatever the "optics", had been made quite some time ago, and that the retirement had nothing to do with him improperly and importunately deciding to release all those criminal aliens.
So what are we to think? Who made the decision? Poltergeists? And if Carney and Napolitano are telling the truth that neither the White House nor DHS was involved in the decision, what are they doing to get to the bottom of it all? And why isn't Morton, the boss, being held accountable for this latest lapse, in an agency with so many lapses to be held accountable for?
Button, button, who's got the button?

It would never happen between Brian Smith and Wayne Bennett.
The final buzzer had just blared to end game two of the NBL grand final series at the State Sports Centre last Sunday - with West Sydney's 103-100 victory extending the play-offs to a third, championship-deciding clash - and the Pigs' Gordie McLeod approached his coaching adversary, Phil Smyth.
For McLeod, it was a moment lost in the emotion and excitement; for Smyth, it came as something of a surprise, not quite the consoling gesture he expected from his opponent.
There was no genial handshake or insincere "bad luck" pat on the back for the vanquished. McLeod leapt at Smyth, bear-hugged him, then offered a few playful, gentle jabs to his ribs. He then turned to Smyth's Adelaide assistant, Steve Breheny ... more jabs and pokes as the trio engaged in banter and laughter.
"Don't ask him what he said to his team after the game, ask him what he said to me," Smyth said at the post-game press conference. "I was busy pushing him away, I thought he was going to kiss me."
"I can't remember what I said, I was just so excited," McLeod replied. "Sure, it's not a traditional thing to do and I guess we're supposed to be bitter grand final enemies, but the way I've been brought up is, why do you need to throw shit over the back fence at someone to get a competitive edge? That's just intimidation, and I don't need to worry about that stuff."
Smyth, Breheny and McLeod are not merely coaching rivals, they are very good long-time friends, and that just adds another twist to the series.
"I think it's great," McLeod said of meeting his good mates in the grand final. "When we played against each other we were always very competitive, and coaching is no different. But the thing is, we've had a friendship for a long time, so while it's fierce competition for 48 minutes, as soon as the final buzzer goes it's friends again.
"We all played against each other - quite a while ago now [1970s and 1980s] - and had a healthy respect for each other.
"Then when we got picked on Australian teams and would go into camp, we got to know each other better and became good friends. Steve and I roomed together when we were on tour in Germany and Yugoslavia leading into the 1980 Olympics. And Phil and Steve were groomsmen at my wedding.
"In 1990, when I stopped playing, I got a job as assistant coach at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra. At that time, Phil was playing for the [Canberra] Cannons and Steve was coaching them, and we would always catch up, talk basketball, have meals, do stuff together."
When Smyth finished his playing career, he accepted the job coaching Adelaide in 1998 and took Breheny along as his assistant. They won the championship that season and repeated the triumph the following one.
In that second season, a new team was brought into the league, the West Sydney Razorbacks, with McLeod as head coach. Although the 36ers won the title, McLeod won the personal battle between his old mates, winning both clashes between their teams - once in Adelaide and once at home.
"All wins in that first season were special but that first win against Adelaide - in Adelaide - was a big one for the club, as they were the defending champions, and also for me personally because it was against Phil and Steve's team," McLeod said.
"But just because we're friends, I wouldn't say that will soften the blow on Friday night for the loser, knowing that you were beaten by a mate's team. Nothing will soften the blow. You'll just acknowledge the winner and wish it was you."
Winning championships is nothing new to Breheny and Smyth. Breheny won two when playing with St Kilda (1979 and 1980), Smyth three with Canberra (1983, 1984 and 1988), and together they have won two coaching Adelaide. McLeod is yet to get off the mark.
Twice in his 259-game NBL career his team reached the semi-finals (1986 and 1987 with Wollongong). He's never been closer than he is now.
"To win a championship is your dream as a kid. I always had it, and while I was a player I made it to the semis a few times but never made the grand final," he said. "When I started coaching, the dream continued, as it always will until you win that elusive championship."

Washington Post Staff Writer

BEIJING -- Amid a clamor in Washington over the value of the Chinese currency, President Hu Jintao used a visit to the United States this week to address what, for any Chinese leader, is a more pressing concern: asserting his nationalist credentials in the face of foreign pressure.
Hu, who arrived in Washington on Monday for the Nuclear Security Summit, told President Obama that China is reviewing its currency policy. But he stressed that any modification "will not be advanced by outside pressure," according to official Chinese media reports Tuesday, and will be based on China's "own economic and social development needs."
The Chinese president's remarks followed widespread speculation in the foreign media and on foreign currency markets in recent days that China is about to bow to American demands and raise the value of the yuan, or renminbi, which is essentially pegged to the dollar. Such a revaluation would make Chinese exports more expensive on world markets and make foreign imports to China cheaper.
China's currency policy has become a major source of friction between Washington and Beijing, though both sides now seem keen to calm tensions and rebuild relations frayed by a host of economic and other issues, including arms sales to Taiwan and Tibet.
Obama has said he regards it as critical to a more stable world economy that China let the value of its currency float more freely on world markets. Economists feel such a policy would be healthier for Chinese companies and workers in the long run, and would help correct the type of global economic imbalances that have pushed the annual U.S. trade deficit with China to more than $200 billion. But following his meeting with Hu, Obama struck a conciliatory tone and said China "rightly sees the issue of currency as a sovereign issue."
"I think they are resistant to international pressure when it comes to them making decisions about their currency policy and monetary policy," Obama said.
Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner stopped off in Beijing last week for a brief, previously unscheduled trip, part of a series of moves designed to head off a confrontation over currency. A few days before, he announced that the Treasury Department will postpone a report originally due Thursday that could brand China a "currency manipulator," a designation that would open the way for possible trade sanctions.
Li Daokui, director of the Center for China in the World Economy at Beijing's Tsinghua University and a member of the Monetary Policy Committee of People's Bank of China, the country's central bank, said repeated demands that China let the yuan rise had put Beijing in a bind. Beijing has debated gradually loosening the peg to the dollar but is afraid that any change would be interpreted as "China giving up under high pressure from the U.S.," he said.
Recent reports of an imminent announcement of a shift in China's exchange rate policy are "not true," he said, adding that any revaluation of the yuan will take place without public fanfare.
"China can either adjust it or keep the status quo for a while," he said.
The currency question has become highly political in both the U.S. and China. U.S. lawmakers denounce China's exchange rate policy as giving its exporters an unfair advantage while many in China complain that the United States is trying to bully Beijing in an effort to solve economic problems of its own making. China ran a trade deficit in March for the first time in years, but this was widely seen as a blip and doesn't reflect any significant slowing of China's export juggernaut.
In his meeting with Obama in Washington, China's leader suggested Beijing will at some point let the yuan rise, a step it has spent billions of dollars to prevent since the 2008 global financial crisis. But, addressing a complaint widely heard in Congress that China's turbocharged exports steal American manufacturing jobs, Hu said that a revaluation "would neither balance Sino-U.S. trade nor solve the unemployment problem in the United States," according to China's official Xinhua news agency.
Jin Canrong, deputy dean of the School of International Studies in Beijng, said Hu's comments establish the political groundwork at home in China for an eventual revaluation by telling his "domestic audience" that China won't shift its policy to please foreigners but for its own reasons. "It's a preparation for real action later," he said.
Special correspondent Zhang Jie in Beijing and staff writer Howard Schneider in Washington contributed to this report.

James Franco to make Broadway debut
Actor James Franco, star of Sam Raimi's Wizard of Oz prequel, is to make his Broadway debut in the John Steinbeck classic Of Mice and Men.
The Oscar-nominated star of 127 Hours will play George in the tragic tale of two migrant workers during the Great Depression. Lennie has yet to be cast.
The play was last seen on Broadway in 1974, with James Earl Jones and Kevin Conway playing the two friends.
This week also saw Franco, 34, receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
"It's something I really didn't even expect," said Franco, who starred in the Sam Raimi Spider-Man franchise.
"You know when I got to LA, I'd come here and you'd see the stars and it just seemed like it was something that was just part of the city and you'd never crack that.
"It's just part of Hollywood history and it's still baffling that my name will be there. So thank you - it's a huge honour that I really can't even comprehend right now."
He was joined at the ceremony by actor Seth Rogen and director Raimi, with whom he is working once again in Oz the Great and Powerful.
Franco, whose film credits include Milk and Pineapple Express, was expected to make his Broadway debut two years ago, in 2011, alongside Nicole Kidman in Tennessee Williams' Sweet Bird of Youth, but the production was abandoned.
He plays Hugh Hefner in the forthcoming film Lovelace, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January.

He doesn't think it has any bearing on his position but Brisbane coach Michael Voss says Mark Neeld's axing by Melbourne shows the importance of results in the AFL.
Neeld's troubled tenure at the Demons came to an end on Monday halfway through a three-year contract.
Voss is also under pressure to hold onto his job with the Lions, with one report in May claiming he had just two months to prove he should be kept on by the club where he won three premierships as a captain.
The Lions have denied that report and will only say a review will be conducted at the end of the season.
Voss himself flatly rejected any speculation Neeld's sacking had made him think about his situation.
"Linking the both is not relevant," Voss told reporters on Tuesday.
"In terms of Mark Neeld I don't think anyone has come into a job and had such a baptism of fire in the first 18 months.
"What's happened has happened but I can't remember another time when a coach has come into a role and received the feedback he's received. It's been quite unbelievable.
"It just shows that regardless of where we think clubs are or lists are, there's still a general perception that we need results now."
Of more pressing concern to Voss is preparing his team to rebound from last weekend's loss to Fremantle in Perth to take on Geelong at the Gabba on Sunday.
Veteran midfielder Simon Black should be fit to take on the Cats, despite the 34-year-old subbing himself off in third quarter against the Dockers as he battled a mystery illness.
Voss said Black had made a "selfless" decision to sub himself off and he had no concerns over Black's fitness.
"He did it on behalf of the team when he probably had every right to be selfish," Voss said.
"I don't anticipate any further problems from here. I've spoken to him and he's said he's feeling pretty good."

Anoka-Hennepin District 11 will not make up any of the five days lost when schools closed for cold weather.
After a recommendation from administration to press on with the current schedule, the school board released a statement this week saying that the district will do just that.
"While educators regret the lost instructional time, they realize that changing the school calendar mid-year could place a hardship on families that have already scheduled vacations," the statement read. "In addition, the school calendar includes enough days beyond the state minimum, so there is no requirement to make up days already lost."
The state requires elementary students to have 935 hours of instruction and students in grades seven through 12 to be in school for 1,020 hours of instruction each year.
Secondary students under Anoka-Hennepin's daily schedule would need to be in class 166 days to hit that 1,020 hour-mark, according to Derrick Williams, communication specialist for the district.
The 2013-2014 calendar includes 173 days of planned instruction for secondary students and 172 days for elementary students, so there is some cushion.
"They're not days that are built in for snow days," Williams said of the schedule. "We just value educational time in the classroom."
At the school board meeting Jan. 27, one of the five days canceled with extremely cold temperatures, Superintendent Dennis Carlson hinted that the days may not be made up. With school already going into mid-June – students' last day is June 11 – adding days at the end of the year would not be ideal. Since all of the canceled days fell in trimester two, already the shortest trimester, staff planning days may have been converted to student contact days if school staff felt additional instructional time was necessary, Carlson said.
Parent-teacher conferences in the middle schools and Compass Program that were canceled with the cold will be rescheduled by principals at a later date.
Contract language and canceled days
Contract language pertaining to canceled days varies slightly for each bargaining group, but in general, staff is not required to report to school and does not see any loss of wages, according to Director of Communication and Public Relations Mary Olson.
Building supervisors are an exception. They are required to report to work in order to check the building – make sure everything is secure, the boiler is working, etc., Olson said. Custodians are supposed to call in to their supervisors and see if they need to report to work. If their services are not required, they do not lose pay.
Administrators generally come in to work as usual, according to Olson, who added that most staff is probably keeping up with their duties when school is canceled. "I would be surprised if many teachers were not working on those days, working from home."
A 'very unusual' year
"We used to have the reputation as being the district that never closed," Olson said.
Each of the last three years, the district has called off school at least once, but before that time, closings occurred very sporadically.
All five days were canceled for dangerously cold temperatures this year, but snow has been the cancellation culprit in prior years.
"With cuts that some of our cities have made … they're not plowing as often as they did before or as early as they did before," Olson said.
Anoka-Hennepin closes schools with negative windchill values if the National Weather Service issues a warning. When snow and ice descend, the district relies on staff driving the roads between 3:00 and 5:30 a.m. to determine if buses will make their routes safely. The call is typically made no later than 6 a.m., according to Olson.
The district has called off school more times this year than it has in the past 10 years combined. It's what Olson calls "very unusual."

Norwegian artist Bjarne Melgaard has never been much for subtlety. His paintings, drawings, films, and sculptures are schizophrenic mixes of raunch and color, where violence and heavy brushstrokes, pornography and scrawling text coexist in entropic harmony.
Lately, Melgaard has been writing novels, though certainly not in the traditional sense. At the intersection of reality and fantasy, the artist's narratives weave around logic and chronicle, mimicking the feeling of his fine art pieces. This month, in the aptly titled exhibition "A New Novel" at Luxembourg and Dayan, Melgaard is collaborating with a team of artists and designers, namely, the New York fashion label Proenza Schouler. The brand's designers, Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough, have worked with Melgaard to create clothing to outfit dolls placed around the gallery's Upper East Side townhouse. The dolls are positioned to create a tableau of enacted violence reminiscent of that portrayed in Melgaard's novel. 150 digitally woven and sequined garments, inspired by the artist's latest paintings, will be on view in the behemoth exhibition.
The dolls will be on view with wallpaper and carpeting also designed by Melgaard, in addition to 13 new paintings and the debut of the artist's latest novel. "A New Novel" promises a uniquely immersive and supremely chaotic experience.

text: Akshay Kumar earned praises from all quarters of Bollywood when he gave away his Star Screen Most Popular Actor to Aamir Khan. But now it seems Akshay did not do this out of generosity but anger. Akshay was promised the Best Actor award for his performance in Singh Is Kinng but as it turned out the award went to Hrithik Roshan for Ashutosh Gowarikers Jodhaa Akbar.Akshay was supposed to perform at the event and asked a hefty sum for it. The organisers were reluctant to pay him and promised him the Best Actor award for his presence during the event. Akshay had even written his winning speech and given it to be set on the teleprompter. Hrithik who was not expected to be present during the awards ceremony turned up at the last moment and had to be given the Best Actor award for his superb performance in Jodhaa Akbar.The organisers then called Akshays name for the Most Popular Actor award. Akki who angry but could not have escaped being on the stage played a masterstroke. He nominated Aamir for the award knowing that the perfectionist actor never attends award ceremonies. Akshay soon left the place much before the ceremony was over. Well this was the closest Akshay came to winning the Best Actor award something which has eluded him all his career.

CSX Rebuilds Northwest Ohio Track Where Train Derailed
TONTOGANY, Ohio
Railroad workers have rebuilt track at the site of a northwest Ohio train derailment.
A spokeswoman for CSX Transportation Corp. tells The Blade in Toledo that it could take weeks to determine why 19 train cars jumped the tracks late Monday in the Wood County village of Tontogany, about 25 miles southwest of Toledo. No one was hurt.
CSX says one of the cars was hauling scrap metal. The rest were empty.
The track was expected to reopen Wednesday.
The sheriff's office says debris from the derailment caused minor damage to several nearby buildings, including a firehouse.
The derailment happened at a switch for a track that allows trains to pass one another on the mostly single-line route.

When Eric Berridge, co-founder of Bluewolf Group, suggests the CFO as Captain Chaos he is recognizing that someone has to take charge of the chaos increasingly surrounding us. He wrote recently in his blog that CFOs must learn to harness chaos for a very simple reason: business is becoming more chaotic.
The evidence is everywhere. Hurricanes, hybrid superstorms, earthquake-tsunami combinations, extreme heat, heavy snow in April are just a few signs. Others can be seen in the proliferation of smartphones and BYOD or the deluge of data under the banner of big data or the proliferation of myriad security threats. Even a shortage of sufficient energy can lead to chaos. Think of it this way: chaos has become the new normal.
Can the CFO step up as the new superhero able to overcome whatever chaos to deliver the right value at the right time and guide the organization through today's tumultuous business environment? Sure, and Berridge offers four steps to get you going.
First, don't build stuff you don't absolutely have to build. You want your organization to travel as light as possible. This means reining in IT's tendency to suggest new technology to address every problem and the business units' propensity to continually request new and more in-house systems.
The trouble is when you build systems you are stuck with them. Instead, you want systems you can change as fast as the business changes. That means you need to encourage an agile IT infrastructure, probably one that taps cloud services and turns them on and off as needed.
Second, recognize the consumerization of IT and the BYOD (bring-your-own-device) chaos it sparked. The consumerization of IT -- wiredFINANCE has written about this previously here -- is not something to be resisted but embraced and facilitated in ways that enable the measure of control you need. Figure out how to take advantage of BYOD through responsive policies, elastic infrastructure, and flexible security capabilities.
Third, encourage the organization's R&D group and product development teams to adopt agile approaches to innovation, especially through social media and other forms of collaboration. Even encourage those groups to go further by reaching out to valued customers and trusted partners to participate. Your role as CFO at this point can be to encourage and facilitate interaction, collaboration, and innovation.
Fourth, layer on enough just-in-time governance to enable the organization to manage the collaboration and interaction. The goal is to put chaos to work. To do that you need to help set priorities, define objectives, execute plans, and enforce flexible policies but do it in the context of a chaotic world that is changing in ways you and the rest of top management can't predict.
As CFO this puts new demands on you and takes you out of the traditional CFO comfort zone. However, since there has never been a Chief Chaos Officer (CCO) or as Berridge calls it, a corporate Captain Chaos, you can start by writing your expanded job description. Then, just keep your finger on the pulse of what is happening with the world at large, in business, and with technology. (wiredFINANCE promises to help.) That means you need to identify sensors and monitors that can tip you off as things change. Since you also can't become familiar with every technology you need to identify an ever-changing stable of technology masters as advisors you can call on as needed. And finally, familiarize yourself with the vast amount of resources available in the cloud.
In the end, these last two points -- a stable of technology master advisors and deep familiarity with cloud resources -- will enable you to deliver value to your organization despite the chaos of the moment. At that point you truly become Captain Chaos, the one your organization counts on to deal with today's increasingly frequent, unpredictable change.

Pleasant Valley Country Club may open dining room to public
The Pleasant Valley Food and Beverage this week asked Bullskin Township supervisors to approve a process of transferring a liquor license to it as a first step in allowing the dining area at the Pleasant Valley Country Club to be open to the public.
Greg Nichols, who is the legal representative of the Pleasant Valley Food and Beverage, said it will apply for a transfer of a liquor license recently held by Skywalker LLC in Masontown.
"The club is currently a private entity, but they wish to be open to the public," Nichols said.
In order for the transfer to occur, the club needs approval from the township as well as the liquor control board.
"There will really be no changes in how we operate," Nichols said. "It's just a matter of getting a restaurateur to operate our dining room as a restaurant rather than just a private dining facility."
He added that once the transfer process begins, it should take eight to 12 weeks.
"We're prepared to start immediately — we're hopeful to have everything in place by early summer," Nichols added.
The Pleasant Valley Country Club was founded in 1922.
In other township business, supervisors reminded residents that the bridge in Bridgeport near the Bridgeport Sportsman's Club is scheduled to close April 1 for the construction of a new bridge.
The estimated time frame for closure is three to four months, but supervisors think it might be closed longer.
Supervisors passed a motion to solicit for bids for various road materials. The bids are due to the township by 3 p.m. April 24 and will be opened at the regular township meeting at 7 that night.
Supervisors announced tentative spring cleanup dates as May 6 through 10.
Also, residents were reminded that due to redistricting, Deberah Kula will be the state representative representing the township. State Rep. Tim Mahoney formerly represented the area.
The township received more than $92,000 in Act 13 money from gas well usage. Supervisors plan to put about $47,000 in a fund to do road construction, maintenance and repairs, $30,000 in a fund to deal with storm water sewer systems maintenance and repair and about $15,000 in a fund for emergency preparedness.
