Our regular look at some of the faces which have made the news this week. Above are the McCartney sisters (main picture), with Dame Kelly Holmes, Elizabeth Jagger, Billie Piper and Dan Rather.
The McCartney sisters
What began with a murder outside a Belfast bar has escalated into the biggest crisis faced by Irish Republicanism in recent years. But just why have Robert McCartney's five sisters made such a huge impact?
The facts, as far as they have already been established, make shocking reading.
On the evening of 30 January, a row in Magennis's, a bar in the Republican enclave of Short Strand in Belfast, ended with a 30-strong mob, which included a number of IRA members, attacking two men.
As the victims lay injured in the street, it is alleged that the crime scene was forensically cleaned by 12 or more IRA men.
Drinkers were instructed not to call the emergency services until the evidence had been removed and CCTV footage of the attack was destroyed.
Belfast, though still divided on sectarian lines, clings to a rigid and longstanding code of "honour": keep your head down, keep your mouth shut.
The murder of Robert McCartney might have gone down as just another pub brawl gone wrong.
The killers, though, reckoned without the McCartney sisters.
In five weeks which, even by Ulster standards, have been remarkable, Paula, Donna, Gemma, Claire and Catherine McCartney, together with their brother's fiancée, Bridgeen Hagans, have mounted a formidable public campaign to bring their brother's killers to justice.
Robert's funeral was attended by 1,000 mourners, many of whom spoke of their disgust at the IRA's actions. And graffiti saying "IRA scum out" has appeared in the Short Strand area, nominally a haven of Republicanism.
The McCartney sisters are successful, intelligent, articulate and resilient women. Gemma is a district nurse, Catherine teaches politics at a local college, Paula studies at Queen's University, Donna runs a gourmet sandwich shop and Claire is training to be a teacher.
They were born and raised in the shadow of sectarianism and violence. Even though their parents, a dressmaker and carpet-fitter, took the family on holiday during the traditional Protestant marching season in July, "the Troubles" still had a huge impact on their childhood.
IRA offer 'to shoot'
In Short Strand, a Catholic area in east Belfast surrounded by a sea of Protestantism, the IRA was often portrayed as the defender of the people, its fearless rebels evening-up the odds and protecting Catholics.
But today, things have changed. The community is split, with many people accusing the IRA of being little more than a criminal gang, which rules by intimidation and fear.
On a wider political scale, the McCartney murder, coupled with December's £26.5m raid on the Northern Bank and the IRA's continuing refusal to allow decommissioned weapons to be photographed, has seriously damaged both Sinn Fein's credibility in the Northern Ireland peace process.
And a recent poll suggests that 44% of Sinn Fein voters want the IRA to disband, although the events do not seem to have much hurt support for Sinn Fein among core working class constituency.
Though the Republican movement has attempted to bring about closure, by expelling members, conducting an investigation and, most chillingly of all, offering to shoot those it believes to be responsible, the sisters have remained resolute.
And they insist that they have no political agenda to grind, wanting only their day in court.
"What have we got to gain from damaging Sinn Fein, especially when we voted for them?" says Paula. "Robert's murderers were the ones who damaged Sinn Fein, so let's keep the blame where the blame belongs."
But, with Sinn Fein's star seemingly on the wane, it is the McCartney sisters, and not Gerry Adams, who will be at the White House in Washington on St Patrick's Day, when they are also expected to meet the Kennedy family and Senator Hillary Clinton.
And, back in Belfast, the hunt for the killers of Robert McCartney continues.
Double Olympic gold medallist Dame Kelly Holmes has collected her latest honour from the Queen at Buckingham Palace. "The Queen said she was delighted to give me the honour and said the gold medals were a great achievement," said the 800m and 1500m Olympic champion. Currently recovering from a hamstring injury, Dame Kelly is due to return to the track when Great Britain takes on Russia and the United States at a meeting in Glasgow on 5 June.
Model Elizabeth Jagger, daughter of Mick, has won a temporary court injunction preventing further publication of CCTV footage showing her engaged in sexual activity. A tabloid newspaper had published a picture of Ms Jagger and Calum Best, son of legendary footballer George, making love just inside the front door of London's Kabaret Prophecy nightclub. Despite the paper's claim that the couple were interrupted three times, the judge declared they had "a legitimate expectation of privacy".
Actress and singer Billie Piper revealed this week how Doctor Who star Christopher Ecclestone helped her through the trauma of her marriage breakdown. The 22-year-old, who's about to star as the Doctor's sidekick, Rose, in the latest series, split up with 38-year-old husband and media millionaire Chris Evans last year. But she doesn't blame her work for her failed marriage. It "would have happened in the end anyway," she says.
Dan Rather, one of America's best known television news anchors, presented his final bulletin on Wednesday evening. Rather has presented the CBS Evening News for 24 years, the longest continuous tenure of any US network newscaster. Rather recently came under fire for a now-discredited report questioning President George W Bush's military service during the Vietnam War. His final broadcast came on the 24th anniversary of the day he replaced Walter Cronkite.

Johannesburg - South Africans should be wary of scams linked to the upcoming African Cup of Nations (Afcon) soccer tournament, the trade and industry department said on Thursday.
Scams were often prevalent during events such as Afcon, the department said in a statement.
"These scams may typically relate to sale of tickets, offering of hospitality packages or provision of affordable accommodation during the Afcon 2013".
The department said consumers sometimes could not tell the difference between valid and accredited ticket suppliers versus fake suppliers, often paying large amounts of money for fake tickets.
"Valid match tickets can only be acquired from approved service providers. Consumers are warned not to purchase match tickets from sources that are not accredited by Afcon 2013," the department said.
EQ Tickets was appointed the exclusive ticket provider for Afcon, in conjunction with Spar stores. Tickets should only be acquired via the EQ Tickets website, kiosks or call centres, plus Spar and Super Spar stores.
"The tickets contain advanced and extensive security features to ensure authenticity and to avert counterfeits," said the department.
The department urged the public to blow the whistle on any scams they may come into contact with. Complaints could be lodged with the National Consumer Commission.
The tournament will take place between January 19 and February 10 with games held in Johannesburg, Rustenburg, Port Elizabeth, Nelspruit and Durban. - Sapa

Allen Gregory, a battle the church cannot afford to lose!
The secularization of our society has reached a new low! On October 30, 2011, Fox will introduce its latest primetime cartoon, Allen Gregory. There is nothing new about an obnoxious, disrespectful child on the tube, but this one is being raised by two men! Hollywood is constantly pushing anti-Christian shows in the face of God and man. The trend has become so common that the church tends to ignore it, but our apathy must cease!
The homosexual community and its supporters cannot change "hard core" old school Christians, so they will go after our children. Our apathy has allowed them to circumvent the church and forage strong allies in the educational, political and entertainment fields. The permissive anything goes attitude is the norm.
The entertainment industries encourages and salutes the homosexual lifestyle. Movies and television shows have progressively included "gay" characters. If and I do mean if, a Christian character is in the lineup, he is usually the psychopath, money grubber, womanizer or wing nut!
With the Allen Gregory show, a full frontal assault has begun on our children. Informed Christians may keep their children away from this form of indoctrination, but what about the uninformed? What about those lost to this world? Isn't the church sworn to be light and salt? What are we to do, ignore it?
For far too long, many of us have left our shields in the shed and our swords in the sheath. We need to arm and re-engage the enemies of Christ. He didn't save us to sit on our heavenly bound seats. He saved us to make disciples of men and to teach them everything he commanded us to teach. Did He not say, "If you love me, keep my commandments?" How can we keep them if we remain silent? How can we look at our children and not consider what will become of their grandchildren if we do not act? Remember what Joshua said, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord".
We cannot serve him unless we engage the battle. Let Fox know that this evil will not be tolerated. Let your friends and neighbors know. Tell the church! Tell your friends to tell their churches. Are we covered by the blood? Are we more than conquerors? What say you Christian soldier? Will you fight or will you die? Gather your shield and sword. I'll see you on the battle field.

Caffe Dolce Vita
When Gianfranco Marrocco left Italy for America, he had big dreams. But his high hopes for what he'd do with his new life were coupled with nostalgia for the outdoor cafés in his native country. Confident that the people of Providence would also enjoy the cosmopolitan atmosphere he longed for from back home, he decided to open an authentic Italian caffé. His dream was realized with the opening of Caffe Dolce Vita, situated in the heart of the picturesque DePasquale Plaza on Federal Hill.
Inside Caffe Dolce Vita, warm tones of copper and bronze showcase contemporary Italian style, along with sage-green leather banquettes (fondly referred to by many Americans by their pet name, "booths" or "great hide-and-go-seek spots"). The kitchen team brings out brunch, lunch, and dinner feasts of savory Italian dishes, such as veal parmigiana. Double espressos and cappuccinos perk up guests, along with specialty drinks at the bar, where servers pour popular Italian liqueurs such as Sambuca and Limoncello.

Kuali Project Receives Grant, Gains Partners
March 23, 2005
A $2.5 million grant from the Mellon Foundation and the addition of four new partner institutions were recently announced by the Kuali Project, an effort to develop an open source financial system for colleges and universities. The grant brings the total funding for the Kuali Project to $7.2 million, with eight partnering organizations guiding development of the initiative.
The new Kuali Project partners include Cornell University, San Joaquin Delta College, Michigan State University, and the University of Arizona, which have joined with Kuali Project founders Indiana University, the University of Hawaii, and the r-smart group to develop the modular financial software. As the eighth member, NACUBO will provide supporting services to the Kuali Project.
The Kuali Project is based on the proven financial system design that has been used at Indiana University for more than 10 years. Its modular design includes a base system of chart of accounts, general ledger, transactions, reporting, and workflow.
Planned additional modules include:
- accounts receivable
- budgeting
- capital assets management
- endowment
- enhanced decision support/reporting
- labor distribution
- purchasing/accounts payable
- pre- and post-award research administration
The first Kuali modules are expected to be released in early 2006. Other modules will follow as the two-and-a-half year project completes its work in summer 2007. The Kuali Project will also release a Fiscal Officer Training Series and financial policy templates to accompany the software.
All Kuali Project software and materials will be available under the Educational Community License and can be adopted by colleges and universities without licensing fees. The open-licensing approach provides opportunities for support and implementation assistance from commercial providers, such as a recently formed partnership between the r-smart group and IBM. The r-smart group/IBM agreement will provide offerings, service, and support for higher education open source projects such as Kuali.

Brad Rock: For a change, conference game really is what matters
Veritas Aequitas Fruit Heights, UTNov. 5, 2010 1:07 p.m.
Classless Ute Fan | 9:25 p.m. Magna, UT
Mark it down!
Why are you commenting about the BYU game on a Utah article?
Who mentioned BYU?
Maybe this reader feels that beeing constantly told to "mark it down" is getting old?
The thinking that it has to do with any other University is manifestation that too many Utah fans are fixated on the "TDS" zoobs.
The reality is that I believe this is a Huge Game because:
TCU has beaten good teams.
Lucky for them the Utes have not beaten any good teams, yet the media has Utah ranked high.
I think this win will put the better team (which I believe to be TCU) in a better position to play deservedly for their second NC, if a team ahead of them loses.
It will be more difficult to place a one-loss team ahead of TCU in that case.
Impossible, no, just more difficult.
(If Utah was the better team, I would feel the same way about Utah... If Utah wins Sat... I will re-evaluate my position).
Lose the arrogance ClasslessMagnaUteFan. It's not always about BYU. Come Sunday, you live in Magna.
Enjoy it!
johnny pigskin Sandy, UTNov. 5, 2010 11:06 a.m.
Will you be back after Utah wins? If so don't bring any excuses as to why, just recognize that it is the year of the UTE!!!!
utefan56 st george, utahNov. 5, 2010 10:54 a.m.
hey sammy....with that said, then you should know as well, most byu fans think that the cougars will finish out the season with all Wins...and move on to some "bowl game"....that sounds pretty delusional given where byu is right now...ain't gonna happen...sorry pal!
Skierelmo Oakley, UTNov. 5, 2010 10:35 a.m.
Sammy.. does the g stand for green as in... with envy!!!
As for the poll numbers.... I can't say this as a fact, but would venture to guess, that that is probably better percentages than we were given against TCU in 08... I would also guess higher than our odds against 'Bama.... which I interpret as good odds!! Come on haters keep telling Utah what they can't do.... its serving them well!!!!
sammyg Springville, UTNov. 5, 2010 10:08 a.m.
Classless and any other Ute fan. My comments have been mostly about the weak schedule the Utes have played and then discounting the possibility of a Ute NC. Along with some occasional banter at the expense of rabid Ute fans my comments have never been about a poor team. NEVER!
I recognize the accomplishments but until tomorrow I'm of the opinion that the Utes have not been tested. Many fans both Ute and others agree with that. There is no comparison in the Utes schedule against Oregon and most other ranked BCS teams. Until last week the Utes have not played against a team of equal talent.
So let's be real brother. If the Utes get by TCU they still have some other games to play. Season ain't over. If they manage to run the table and end the season undefeated then the FACT of the matter is this... No shot at the NC if other BCS teams are undefeated. PERIOD!
So there you go. I'm not a Ute hater contrary to belief. Some of the fans are delusional and those are the ones that need a dose of reality. Medicine will be administered tomorrow.
UtahManDan Providence, UTNov. 4, 2010 10:36 p.m.
Stupid opinion polls mean a lot to some people. Afterall that is how BYU won in 1984. I choose to wait and settle it on the field.
Classless Ute Fan Magna, UTNov. 4, 2010 9:25 p.m.
Mark it down!
Why are you commenting about the BYU game on a Utah article?
Mark it down, this is THE Biggest MWC game of the year. This is also one of, if not the biggest game, in all of college football this year. Utah and TCU could possibly be the best 2 teams in the country. And you say yawn? That is laughable. Could TCU win? possibly. But then again, so could Utah. The fact that you, and several other Utah haters, won't acknowledge that fact is also laughable.
I agree, 33% chance of Utah playing in the NC game if they win on Saturday. I think that your prediction about TCU is not correct. However, it seems a reasonable prediction. Do you want to make a wager? I bet Utah wins and then you still come back and talk about how poor of a team Utah is.
optimist Sun City, CANov. 4, 2010 9:19 p.m.
If TCU beats Utah, there is a chance that it will play for the National Championship, epecially if Auburn and Boise State Loses their games.
If TCU loses to Utah and Boise State wins their game and Auburn loses their game, chances are good that Boise State will play for the National Championship.
If Utah wins over TCU and Boise State wins over Hawaii, and Auburn wins their game, it is my opinion, that Utah will not have a chance at the National title.
If Utah beats TCU, Boise State loses to Hawaii, and Auburn loses it's game and Oregon loses it's game, but atthe finale of MWC games, if BYU beats Utah,
they might get a crack at a decent bowl, not the Las Vegas Bowl, but maybe the Independence Bowl or the Poinsetta Bowl, but I think we could escape the New Mexico Bowl vs a middle of the pac WAC team.
That would be a hughe success.
Go Cougars.
sammyg Springville, UTNov. 4, 2010 8:57 p.m.
Oh, I forgot to comment on the poll...
"If Utah beats TCU, will it play in the national championship?
1/3 yes
Wow Ute fans! There's either a lot of 'haters' out there manipulating this poll or it's the truth smack dab between the eyes!
NO NC for the Utes this year or the next, the
next... get it? Think it will be easier next year without 'cupcakes'? Wrong!
This week the hype ends! TCU by 14. It's going to be a great game.
In the words of my favorite broken record Ute fan...

MiP Iowa City, IANov. 4, 2010 8:40 p.m.
Hated U, what's the deal with the subtraction equation. Taking a needle away from a balloon doesn't make it pop, bro.
And so shall it be with the Utes. They will keep getting bigger and bigger.
But win or lose, the season isn't over after this game. With three exciting regular season games and an assured bowl game, there's plenty of football to be played.
Here's hoping the Utes are 9-0 after Saturday.

Although the College Gameday will be here in Utah the game will be shown CBS College sports and not any of the espn channels.
I hope like crazy that the Utes are able to win this game but it will be a tough one.
MGB Saint George, UTNov. 4, 2010 4:48 p.m.
Just hoping that ESPN Game Day does not jinks Utah. It has a tendency to do that to the home team.
sk3pt1c4l Sandy, UTNov. 4, 2010 4:17 p.m.
"With Saturday's game featured on ESPN's GameDay, it has become an event of high national interest. That hasn't often – if ever – happened when two MWC teams played."
If he's referring to "high national interest" he has a point. However, this will be the third time GameDay has featured MWC teams. They came to Provo last year for the BYU-TCU matchup and also to Utah in 2004.
#1 Jazz Fan Springville, UTNov. 4, 2010 3:54 p.m.
I hope we can hear from NC Utes 2010 when Utah comes up short in this game. As much as I like Utah, I have a hard time seeing them getting away with a W on this one. TCU's just too good and they will be ready for this game--just like they were last year.
SoCalUtahFan Utesville, CANov. 4, 2010 3:11 p.m.
The road to BCS goes through Fortworth and Salt Lake City. How sweet does that sound? It does not go through Provo--not even for a pit stop.
It's not bad that this year, the winner of Utah-TCU can not count on BYU to help their strength of schedule.
Regardless, the winner of this game--Utah--should be ranked 3rd after this week-end. And will eventually meet Oregon for the BCS NC game in Gledale AZ--ie the road to BCS NC game goes through Eugene and Salt Lake City to Glendale.

It's the little things that trigger epiphanies. Those tiny moments of recognition that make me say "Oh! I see!"
A few days ago, I took my Canon S100 out of my shoulder bag where it lives. I'm very careful with my cameras. When I'm shooting, I'm so focused that unless I adhere to a strict routine, I lose stuff. As I've gotten older, I lose stuff anyway and I don't want to lose any cameras, so I follow my checklist to make sure that no camera or accessory gets left behind. I pull the camera out of my bag, stuff its sleeve in my pocket, take my pictures, and put it all back. When I get home, I pop the SD card out, plug it into the computer, download the pictures, clear the card and return it to the camera. Back into my bag it goes. I know if I keep to the program, I will always have a camera near at hand. For some reason, the last time I used it, I didn't put the S100 away and left it next to the monitor. I'm sure I had a reason, though I can't recall what it was.
I forgot it until last night when I picked my bag and noticed how light it felt. What was missing? Ah, the camera.
"Hmm," I said. "I didn't realize that little camera adds so much heft to my bag."
It was late. I was on my way to bed, but stopped in my office to collect the cordless phone to return it to its cradle in the bedroom. I noticed the camera lying on the desk. I picked up the camera and thought "Gee, I should swap the battery and charge this one. I've been using it a lot." I have quite a few spare batteries. There is nothing that will ruin a shoot more completely than having a battery die in the middle and not having a replacement with you.
I popped the battery out and went to put it in the charger. I looked at my power strip. Six chargers. Impressive for a strip that only has 6 plugs.
This being a Canon battery, I tried putting it in the first Canon charger on the strip. It didn't fit. I tried the next but it didn't fit there either, which shouldn't have surprised me because it was Panasonic and this was a Canon battery, but who can read black lettering on a black charger in dim light anyhow?
There was one charger in the strip I hadn't tried. Unsurprisingly, the battery popped right into place. I looked around and realized I have two more Olympus chargers nearby and an off brand charger whose purpose I do not recall. The chargers in this group each attach to one arm of an octopus splitter. With a wrinkle of concern, I realized I had another little camera on the way and no room for a charger. I was going to have to add another strip. I wondered where I could possibly put it. Things are getting crowded in the electrical part of the office.
Epiphany. Bong. Whack.
I have a lot of cameras, computers, tablets, readers, telephones, printers, transmitters, routers, modems, Roku, DVD players and music making thingies. I don't even know how many there are. I don't even know where I've put them all. Or if they work. They have accumulated while my back was turned. There are all the old ones I used until I got newer ones. Then there are the back ups I never use, but have in case a piece of equipment fails. Spare telephones, extra cameras. Even a couple of miscellaneous computers.
Everything uses batteries including items that plug into a socket somewhere and most things seem to need a WiFi feed. No room is exempt, from kitchen to bedroom. We have electronic toothbrushes in our bathrooms. After even the briefest power outage, my entire house starts blinking.
Night is lit up by the soft glow of red, blue and green LEDs. It's never fully dark or entirely silent. Everything flickers, whirrs and buzzes, beeps and dings. The telephones variously whoop, bong or play obnoxiously loud music. Even my wallpaper (the stuff on the computer, not the walls in the kitchen) makes splashing sounds as my virtual dolphins leap in an electronic sea.
My universe collapses in the face of a power outage. Nothing works if the power's down. I am slavishly devoted to technology and the thought of having no electricity for even a brief period makes me shiver with dread.
Everyone these days seems to have a vast quantity of electronic gadgetry, no matter what they say because nothing is simple anymore. The microwave, the refrigerator, the range and the oven are computerized. Those are merely the basics.
I had to reboot my bed the other day.
I may not in theory need so much stuff, but I can't imagine giving anything up. I love it all. I even love the things I don't use, cell phones that served me well and obsolete computers or cameras which have been replaced by newer models. They are my Hall of Fame collection.
Accumulation will never stop. Garry's new computer is on the way and who knows how many peripheral items it will spawn.
I swear this has all crept up on me, slipped into my life a gadget at a time — a computer, a modem, a router, a laptop, another computer another and another. New cameras replaced old ones and they were themselves replaced by even newer gear. New gadgets were invented and became indispensable. As technology continues to evolve, each piece of equipment will be replaced eventually by newer versions. Like virtual seasons in an endless cycle of beeping, flashing and whirring change.
Excuse me. My oven is beeping. Dinner must be ready.

Drivers say roads still in need of repair
Wed, 21 May 2014 03:55:35 GMT —
Toledo drivers continue to complain about potholes, even after the cityâ??s pothole blitz that had street repair teams working ten hour shifts.
The outer lanes of Douglas Road near the University of Toledo are closed down for road construction, but the inside lanes remain open and peppered with potholes. Elvhin Encarnacion is a fourth year UT student who grew up in Toledo. He says this is the worst heâ??s seen Douglas.
â??Now that itâ??s one lane both ways, I just canâ??t help but see the time delay on it,â?? Encarnacion said.
A longer commute is a sacrifice many East Toledo residents are willing to make. Ashley Viveros drove down Leonard and noticed the potholes havenâ??t been repaired.
â??It looks like Iâ??m a drunk driver when Iâ??m driving because thatâ??s how many potholes are just randomly around,â?? Viveros said.
City Council is considering a plan to use potential street repair money to open more of Toledoâ??s pools. Currently, no pools are scheduled to open in North Toledo, where residents rallied this month to open Wilson and Jamie Farr pools.

I recently got a copy of Microsoft AJAX Library Essentials: Client-side ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 Explained by Cristian Darie and Bogdan Brinzarea . I think it is very, cool that there is a whole book on the Microsoft Ajax Library (download)... I think this is a far two unsung asset of the ASP.NET 3.5.
The first half of the book is really an Ajax and javascript overview.. the big take away from this section is that you DO NOT want to be doing this stuff by hand. You gotta use a framework. Of course, I am slightly partial to the Microsoft Ajax Library, put Dojo, Prototype, or any of the many others would be better than doing this by hand!
The second half of the book is a good walk through of the Microsoft Ajax Library.. how to do basic networking, create classes and components, etc. The authors also do a great job of highlighting the tools of the trade for Ajax developers including Nikhil's web developer helper and of course FireBug. The book also includes a handy class reference in the appendix.
I think the book misses out on talking about how to use the Ajax Control Toolkit completely from client side javascript, but maybe that is for the 2nd edition 😉

NEW YORK (MainStreet) — Americans have too many credit cards – 609 million to be exact, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston – with an average of 2.7 credit cards per consumer.
While it may be easier to pay with plastic than cash, credit cards can pose severe dangers to your financial well-being.
The more credit cards you have, the more likely you are to rack up thousands of dollars of debt. The average household has $15, 788 in credit card debt, according to creditcards.com, and the interest alone can be paralyzing.
Without a credit card, the only option is cash. You won't be able to spend beyond your means, but with cash, you don't have to worry about getting into debt, paying interest or late fees or damaging your credit score.
Consider this revolutionary proposal: carry only one credit card in your wallet, using it to build credit and for unexpected emergencies. Credit cards should not be thought of as a way to extend our spending abilities, but instead as a tool to reach a high credit score.
If you already have more than one credit card, the solution is simple: cut them up. Keep the credit card with the lowest interest rate in your wallet, but for the other cards, just get rid of them!
You should, however, keep the other accounts open, especially if your card is several years old, since that will damage your credit score by eliminating vital credit history. That credit history accounts for 15% of your credit score.
Also, closing down a credit card account can cause even more damage to your credit score if you have credit card debt. Let's say you have three credit cards, each with a $5,000 credit limit, totaling $15,000. If, for example, you owe $3,000 on one card and $4,000 on the other card, but nothing on the third card ($7,000 in debt), then your debt to credit limit ratio (also known as your utilization ratio) is about 47%. If you close down that third credit card, you now only have $10,000 of available credit instead of $15,000 – you still owe the $7,000, so your utilization ratio increases to 70%.

Steelers LB James Harrison Rips Commissioner Roger Goodell [VIDEO]
Someone take James Harrison's foot out of his mouth. The Steelers linebacker completely crushes Big Ben and Roger Goodell in an issue of Men's Journal.
Subscribe to 104.5 THE TEAM on
Former defensive player of the year, James Harrison, went on a tirade in the August edition of Men's Journal magazine. In a piece entitled, "Hit Man," Harrison ripped Big Ben Roethlisberger, Rashard Mendenhall, and Commissioner Roger Goodell.
In a complete twist that has never happened before, Harrison is not fully standing by his words. Shocking. ESPN's Merril Hoge reports that Big Ben was called by Harrison. Harrison claims that the — wait for it — that the writer twisted a lot of his words.
Ahh, yes. It was the writer that twisted Harrison's words. Totally believable. Harrison probably said something like, "Big Ben is an All-American quarterback," and the writer just said, "Screw that. Let's go with Big Ben stinks." Harrison had plenty of critical things to say. Stand by it, James.

ARLINGTON, Texas — About the only predictable characteristic of the Giants all season long was how unpredictable they were. And Monday night, breaking the hearts of Texas, the Giants capped their season in the most unexpected way: with a World Series championship.
The 3-1 win over the Rangers gave the Giants their first title since 1954, before the franchise moved from New York to San Francisco, and fittingly it came with an unexpected twist: a three-run seventh-inning home run from aging and forgotten Edgar Renteria — who was named the Series MVP — after the first sacrifice bunt of former Ray Aubrey Huff's career.
Unexpected. Unpredictable. Unbelievable.
"Determination," general manager Brian Sabean said. "They had a will about them. Simply put, we have a lot of characters with a lot of character. It's like the United Nations in here — a very diverse group. But when they get on the field, they have a way about them that's fearless."
The championship was significant for the franchise, for the city, for the people — some no longer involved, such as former owner Peter Magowan — who led the fight to keep the team from moving to St. Petersburg in the early 1990s.
"A great thing," managing general partner Bill Neukom said.
It was especially emotional for Huff, the former longtime Ray who had been thrilled just to make the postseason for the first time, as he broke down in tears during the overly wet, wild and loud clubhouse celebration.
"It's been such a long grind for me for nine years and then to make it and be here and do this, I can't believe it happened," he said. "I always try to be the (tough guy), but I'm losing it right now, and I don't care. Anyone in my situation I'm sure would do the same.
"I feel like celebrating, but I can't move. What a story for me. I'm just out of words."
Renteria's home run gave the Giants the lead they needed, starter Tim Lincecum got them through the eighth — allowing only three hits — and closer Brian Wilson finished, striking out Nelson Cruz for the final out to ignite a celebration that started on the field and spread quickly back to the West Coast.
"We'll be there soon," said Giants outfielder Pat Burrell, who went from being released by the Rays to earning another championship — even though he went 0-for-13 with 11 strikeouts in the five games.
The Rangers, who eliminated the Rays and the Yankees on their way to the Series, didn't put up much of a fight, shut down by the Giants' overwhelming pitching. The Rangers hit just .190 for the Series and scored only 12 runs. To look at it another way: the Rangers had 29 hits for the Series while the Giants scored 29 runs.
The Giants just did what they do.
"We were underdogs the whole way, and all the experts out there picked us last," Huff said. "But we had heart, great pitching, defense and timely hitting. Experts be damned."
That was certainly how it played out in Monday's Game 5. Blanked for six innings by Rangers ace Cliff Lee, in the duel with Lincecum that was expected in the opener, the Giants struck in the seventh.
Cody Ross and Juan Uribe — two more veterans who found success in orange and black — started the inning with back-to-back singles off Lee.
Then Huff dropped down the first sacrifice bunt of his major-league career. "I got the bunt sign, but I was going to do it anyway," Huff said. "Lay it down and hope for the best."
That set up Burrell to be the star, but he instead struck out — which really wasn't that unexpected. That brought up Renteria, the 34-year-old heading toward the end of his career. And all he did — after hitting only three homers in a miserable season marked by injury and inconsistency — was hit his second huge homer in the past four games. Better yet, he told Andres Torres before he went to the plate that he was going to do it.
"I've got confidence in me, but I was joking like I'm going to get it out," Renteria said. "But it went out."

Mentors help high school students
After a successful pilot program last year, Riverside Educational Center has implemented a mentoring program this year for high school students.
The program is based on the mentor model at Mesa County Partners, which provides training for the new mentors.
Mentors meet a few times a week with local high school students who have received tutoring before at Riverside Educational Center.
Mentors help the students with homework, drive them to sports practices, and provide any other support they may need from an adult — even if it's just a conversation while shooting hoops.
The program at Riverside began with 10 students last year and has expanded to 15 students this year, most of whom attend Grand Junction High School.
Riverside Co-Executive Director Mary Gonzales said students selected for the program mostly come from single-parent families, in which a parent may be too busy working to help a student after school.
Fred Jones, a mentor at Riverside, said the program is not for kids who have been in trouble, but for kids who want to stay on the right track in high school.
Jones frequently drives his mentee, 16-year-old Aferny Reyes, to basketball, cross-country and track practices because the boy's mother works two jobs.
He also checks Reyes' grades and makes sure he's keeping up in school while Reyes works a nearly full-time job.
"I want him to succeed. I enjoy helping him out and making sure he has every chance to succeed," Jones said.
"If they (mentees) don't do well in these four years, it could really impact their lives. We just want to give them every opportunity we can to give them the best experience in high school."
Reyes, a sophomore at Grand Junction High School, said he enjoys his time in the mentor program and appreciates that Jones takes him to practice, helped him get a phone and helps him out with homework.
"He's like a second father," Reyes said.
In addition to recruiting mentors, Riverside Educational Center is looking for volunteers of all kinds at the start of the 2012-13 school year, from tutors to fundraisers to people who can help with office work.
Potential volunteers can use the contact information above to reach the center.

RDU OKs some Uber drivers
Posted October 20, 2014
Morrisville, N.C. — Raleigh-Durham International Airport officials have issued permits to 10 drivers who work for the Uber ride-sharing service.
RDU had called Uber and fellow ride-sharing service Lyft illegal taxis, handing out more than 100 trespassing citations to drivers in recent months.
In order to standardize the service and fares charged by taxis that serve the airport, RDU requires all cabs to obtain a permit, carry proof of $1.5 million in liability insurance and have drivers who have undergone background checks and physicals.
Airport spokeswoman Mindy Hamlin said Monday that the 10 drivers met the permit requirements on their own, including applying for and receiving "for hire" tags from state of North Carolina and installing transponders that allow RDU to track trips to and from the airport – and therefore charge fees on them.
Uber and Lyft have called RDU's permitting process outdated and say ride-sharing gives travelers another option to get to and from the airport. Yet, both companies have been working with RDU on solutions around the impasse.
Uber, for example, has set up a "geofence" around the airport that prevents people who are booking a ride through Uber's app from seeing drivers on RDU property.

Taylor Cheese celebrated the project completion by having an Open House on September 21st for customers, vendors and friends.
Taylor Cheese is a 40 year old specialty cheese company that produces high quality, cut-and-wrap cheese products for their customers. They operate a 6,000 square foot state of the art processing plant with approximately 25 dedicated employees.
Taylor Cheese utilized the Extrutech P2400 wall panels, the P1300 ceiling panels and the new Suspended Ceiling panels throughout the remodeling project. The Extrutech wall and ceiling panels were manufactured to fit the interior walls and ceilings thus eliminating waste and reducing seams. The panels provide a bright, glistening surface which is very easy to clean and maintain. Since the panels have a unique tongue and groove design with a hidden nailing fin, there are no exposed fasteners anywhere.
Mr. Robert Ehrenberg, Co-owner and Director of Operations at Taylor Cheese, was very happy with the finished appearance of his plant and the Extrutech wall and ceiling panels. They make the rooms look so bright and clean, Robert stated.

If you think of the Big Friendly Giant every time a helicopter flies over . . .
If you root for the fox when chickens disappear . . .
If you open a chocolate bar and wonder if you've won the Golden Ticket . . .
Well, you may be a Roald Dahl fan.
The author of "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory," Dahl wrote this story and others based on memories of his school days in England.
In his autobiography Dahl told of being unhappy at school — but also of trips he and his friends made to the sweet shop, and of testing new varieties of chocolate bars at the nearby Cadbury's factory.
"Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka Junior" is a musical based on the book. It features songs such as "Pure Imagination," "Golden Age of Chocolate," and "Think Positive."
It will be presented at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 5 and Saturday, April 6 at Southwest Junior High, 943 SW Ninth Ave. Tickets are $5 for secondary students and adults, $3 for elementary students.
Michael Johnson plays Willy Wonka, and Logan Olson is Charlie Bucket. Hannah Gordy takes on gum-chewing Violet Beauregard, and Abbey Rue is gluttonous Augustus Gloop. Ally Mitchell plays the spoiled Veruca Salt and Lauren Samec the television-watching, video game-loving Mike Teavee.
The role of Charlie's caring, patient Grandpa Joe is filled by Cody Dusterhoft.
The musical is directed by English teacher Amanda Brett and choir teacher Crystal Biljan.
Composer and lyricist Leslie Bricusse and actor/singer/songwriter Anthony Newley, both London-born, wrote the songs.
Bricusse, who has written more than 40 musical shows, is known for his songs "Talk to the animals" from the movie "Dr. Doolittle" and "Can you read my mind?" (with John Williams) from the movie "Superman."
Newley played the Artful Dodger in David Lean's 1948 film "Oliver Twist" and starred in the stage version of "Stop the World–I Want to Get Off," for which he and Bricusse wrote "What kind of fool am I?"
Southwest Junior High students are being exposed to a talented author and musicians in this production. Be sure to bring your young ones along for the show.

|Butcherknife Hole in the Sky
GT (672) San Diego, California | June 7, 2013
Fun open air coffee shop cum beer bar cum bicycle repair shop. Hipster vibe to the max. Small, but unique tap list featuring obscure local brewers. Snooty bartender I was warned about was actually quite nice and accommodating. Quick service. Nice patio to sit outside. Quite atmosphere where students come to study so be weary of getting too loud and obnoxious or people will be eyeballing you. Looks like they were selling some good looking sandwiches, but I didn't try any. My only qualm is that the hyper local, nano brewery focus of the small tap list left the selection without a really "good" beer. It was mostly okay to not good stuff. There is a bottle list that looked like it was only canned craft beer for some reason. Iced coffee was good. Looked like they also had some pastries.
NachlamSie (789) Denver, Colorado | January 13, 2015
Denver Bike Cafe in Uptown operates as a cafe/bike repair shop until 5pm at which point it switches over to serving beer. Yea, total hipster joint. The ambiance is very cozy and chill with comfortable seating, exposed brick walls, great non-overplayed tunes on the stereo. The crowd gathered here on a Monday was 20-30 somethings all sociable and happy to be visiting. All of the 10 taps and dozens of cans are from Colorado breweries. There were a couple things on that I hadn't seen anywhere else yet, like Odell Barrel Thief. The prices are great, especially considering the neighborhood. There were a few quality $4 pint options. Most everything was $6 or less, even the barrel aged, high alcohol stuff. On Mondays they take $1 off all drafts so it was a bona fide bargain. The bartender was great, very personable and attentive. I had a great time here and will try to return at some point.
brokensail (1366) Dublin, California | November 11, 2013
Interesting place. If you're looking to get your bike fixed and have a beer or a coffee, it's your place. I guess you'd call it hipster. Friendly enough service and a small but respectable beer list, lots of less obvious choices than most other places in town. Comfy local place that one might hang out if they lived in the area.
t0rin0 (1529) Do Not Resuscitate, California | October 28, 2013
Visited October 10, 2013.
This is an odd combination of bicycle repair shop, coffee shop, and bar. I guess it's more of a café that serves some beer rather than a bar. The bicycle repair center / work station is on the right side of the room and the counter and tables on the left. The whole thing screams hipster but I guess that's alright. I didn't check to be sure but I can only assume that the bulk of their work is on fixie bikes. I don't drink coffee so I skipped over all that. The tap list is small but they advertise that each tap is dedicated to a style, which I like. I also like that the beers they put on are a bit more obscure than the mainstream stuff found all over town. I still haven't made it to Wit's End yet but they had a beer of theirs on tap here along with something from a place called Yak and Yeti. Then there was the peach grand cru from Great Divide that I had tried the night before at Falling Rock. They have a ton of cans to choose from and I guess on certain nights they discount them to $2 per. I could see stopping in for a quick tick every week if I lived close by but as it is (travelling from half way across the country) I probably won't be frequenting this place. I also didn't eat here but from the sounds of it I didn't miss much.
jmgreenuk (445) Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia | October 13, 2013
Stopped by on a quiet Saturday night. A quirky bar with bench seating and a small but interesting tap list plus a few more cans and bottles. Excellent wi fi. Shame it closes at 10pm which is the reason why it was a lot less busier than it might have been. I would return. It's my kind of bar.
Iphonephan (392) Jackson Hole/McLean, Virginia | October 12, 2013
Stopped in on a Saturday night during GABF. Pretty quiet but a nice vibe with a good tunes and an interesting selection of 6 drafts -- all Colorado beers. Definitely worth a visit.
Steve_0 (142) Denver, Colorado | July 1, 2012
Very cool bicycle cafe, with coffee, beer, and a bicycle mechanic that can perform any type of service you need for your bike. 99% of the beer selection is from Colorado, but it includes a ton of offerings from smaller breweries that aren't widely available elsewhere, pretty cool. I think they have one or two out-of-town selections, and a few different food items, but as discussed below, you can bring your own food, as well. Probably the best part is the cup of joe. Bottomless cups of coffee for $2, and the baristas are great. The vibe here is pretty laid-back and very hipster at times, but everyone is friendly and it's always a good time. Definitely a must-see in the Denver metro area.
onceblind (66) Denver, Colorado | March 19, 2012
Super delightful spot, a little rustic in a dilapidated sense, but also reminds me of a very old Victorian bed-and-breakfast kitchen. Lots of picnic tables indoors, a long long bar, and large open windows. The bike repair area doesn't get in the way while adding to the whole bike-shop feel, making a pint feel even more special, like it's in a friends garage. They have some exceptional coffee that's always from CO, but the house coffee is swell too, and you can choose how it's brewed. The beer is a fine selection for so few choices, picking mostly the underdog startups from around town that you can rarely find outside the home brewer. Only 6 taps but they're more interesting than some of the 20+ tap places.
3fourths (1569) Boulder, Colorado | March 16, 2012| Updated July 16, 2012
Finally a bar in Denver where they offer something other than the same 10 beers you can find at a hundred other places in town. All draft beers are local from small breweries, and though there's a hipster vibe, the staff limit the attitude and are actually open and engaging and willing to share and learn themselves. Probably my new go-to bar in Denver. They only have 6 taps but they are more interesting to me than the 50 at a place like Freshcraft or Amato's or Falling Rock.
notalush (407) Lakewood, Colorado | December 20, 2011| Updated March 22, 2012
This place opened about a month ago, not far from Vine Street Pub - it's a combination coffee house, bar and bike repair shop (a combination that will hopefully assure their success) - spacious interior, with a lot of bar space and communal picnic tables, if you are feeling social, or counters along the windows and small tables along the parameter, if you are feeling antisocial - they serve Pablo's coffee here, which is a local micro roaster that roasts a pretty mean bean - these folks also make a great cup of coffee with those beans (they make a much better cup than Pablo's themselves) - pricey (a large to-go coffee will set you back 3 bucks) but heavy, rich and smooth (it will probably take you an hour to finish it) - however, if you stay a while and drink-in, you can get bottomless coffee for two bucks, so it pays to stay - cans and bottles of some local brews - only six taps, but they focus mostly on showcasing product from start-up breweries in town (Copper Kettle, Denver Beer, Renegade, Strange), plus a few local staples (Dry Dock, Great Divide) - there are shockingly few bars in town showcasing beer from these new breweries - in that respect, they are a great spot for sampling what some of the new breweries in town have to offer without traveling all around town (these guys are also currently the only place outside of the brewery where you can buy Copper Kettle beers) - in some cases, the beers are cheaper here than at the breweries themselves - a lot of empty space behind the bar makes me hope that they may expand their tap list once they get off the ground - very small food menu (bagels and burritos), but they let you bring in your own food (plenty of great restaurants on 17th) - I love this place - it isn't a spot where you can geek out and get some ticks in, but if you like coffee and want to sample some beers from the smaller breweries in town, this is a good spot.

NEWPORT'S only microbrewery are celebrating their second anniversary this month.
The Tiny Rebel Brewing Company situated on Maesglas Industrial Estate, first started brewing in March 2012 and are now expanding their workforce to seven with a position for a brewery assistant.
The new recruit will be trained in brewery making, cask washing and weighing, and mixing ingredients.
It is part of a Jobs Growth Wales Scheme where the Welsh Government pay the salary for the first six months.
Gareth Williams, 33, co- director and head brewer said: "We are making a lot more beer than we have been. It's gone really well so far.
"To celebrate we are bringing out our first ever lager. It will be a Bohemian lager and we're thinking of naming it Boho."
The company who recently opened their own bar, The Urban Tap House, on Westgate Street in Cardiff are already thinking about their next project.
"We are hoping to get a place in Newport if the Friars Walk development works out," said Mr Williams.

Letter to the Editor: 'What about Cole?'
Throughout my many years of living in the Perham area, I have witnessed the generosity and kindness of this community when there was a need. The young, the old, the business owner, child, husband, wife and extended family lend their strengths, as the community pulls together to show their support and prayers for ones in need.
So, I asked myself, 'What about Cole?'
Cole Buchanan is a 2011 Perham graduate. Upon first glance, you would never know how sick he is. The strength I have witnessed that this young man has for his family, himself and all others is amazing to me.
Cole was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease at the age of 17.
Polycystic kidney disease, or PKD, is the most common of all life-threatening genetic diseases, affecting more people than Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy, hemophilia, sickle cell anemia and Huntington's disease combined.
There is no treatment for PKD, and no cure. Those like Cole, who inherit PKD, develop fluid-filled cysts on both kidneys. Over time, these cysts grow and multiply, causing the kidneys to increase in size. A normal kidney is roughly the size of a fist; PKD kidneys can grow to be the size of a football or larger, and can weigh as much as 30 pounds each.
In addition to having PKD, Cole has some other underlying medical conditions. He struggles to lead a normal life, with the support of his mother, younger brother and friends, but his disease makes this hard to do. Unable to work and in constant pain, a trip to the Mayo Clinic gave Cole and his family high hopes of some kind of miracle. Unfortunately, that was not the case: Cole's doctor informed them that his disease has progressed 30 years faster than normal.
I feel blessed for getting to meet and know this family. Cole is a very intelligent young man, with one dream, and that is to go to college. But, not wanting to go into debt with no means of repayment, the family has hit another wall.
So, with Cole's permission, a few of the family's close friends will be holding a benefit in Cole's name on Saturday, March 15 at The Cactus in Perham, from 4 p.m. to close.
Cole's only hope is that he can further educate people on PKD. Our hope is to help defer expenses due to his many doctor's appointments, and education expenses so he can attend online college classes.

Today was an exciting day.
And no, I did not flip any cakes upside down. Sorry, I know you were hoping for that! I got a package from Jose! Well, actually my Grandma sent me the package. Jose just delivered it.
Wait. It is weird that I know my UPS guys name? Here is the thing, since he is here every day we have learned his name and I have also learned that he really like these cookies and this fudge.
What? Well he is really nice and I have a lot of sweet's lying around.
So yeah, Jose is here pretty much everyday between 10:00am and 11:00am. Why is he here so much you ask? Red. He gets SO many boxes sent to him.
It. Is. Insane.
Burton, if by some odd chance you are reading this, listen up. That kid does not need any more stuff! Our house is over-flowing with snowboards, coats, goggles, helmets, gloves, snow pants and hats. Seriously, we could clothe a small army. No joke. It is ridiculous.
Today however, I got the box. Oh, and it was a good one…
All over the box were the words Sur La Table. That is ALWAYS good.
My grandma is awesome. She decided one day after talking with me on the phone to change her plans for the day and head over the The Gardens Mall in Jupiter, Florida (maybe the best mall) and park her car right outside the giant Sur La Table. She then proceeded to scour the store high and low for little goodies she could send me. And no it is not my birthday.
because one, I NEVER get things and two, if I would want anyone to send me something it would be my grandma. We are kind of like two peas in a pod. We are alike in so many ways and well, let's be honest she has amazing taste. The women knows how to shop and shop well. Whether it's clothes, furniture or kitchen stuff you can guarantee she is going to pick something good.
Expect to see some super cute yellow dish towels that just scream spring and some new little spoons and forks in the near future! Seriously, it has been way too long since my grandma and I have been together and shopped up some trouble. This gift was an awesome surprise, but it made me miss our little adventures even more!
Now, about this grilled cheese that probably has you guys yelling at your computer screen "shut about you stupid box!". It is cheesy, crisp and a grilled cheese lovers dream. And my gosh it the perfect way to use up your leftover St. Patrick's day corned beef that I am guessing a whole lot of you are planning on making. I actually used pastrami just because my family prefers a spicier meat, but corned beef is also delicious and just as good! Oh and, the beer caramelized onion's, they are so good.
Plus, it is just oozing with cheese. Nothing beats melty cheese!
Pastrami and Caramelized Onion Grilled Cheese.
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter plus more if needed
- 1 small onion thinly sliced
- 1/2 tablespoon sugar
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 3/4 cup dark beer
- 2 ounces deli-shaved pastrami or deli-sliced corned beef or leftover corned beef cut into strips
- 2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
- 1 1/2 cups grated jarlsberg cheese about 6 ounces
- 4 slices pumpernickel or dark rye bread
Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over low heat. Add the onion and sprinkle with the sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Cook on low heat stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 20-25 minutes (to speed the process up you can cover the pan). Add the beer and continue cooking, stirring occasionally until the onions are extremely tender and the liquid is slightly syrupy, about 8 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in worcestershire sauce and mustard. Transfer the onions to a small bowl and set aside.
In the same pan add the pastrami and lightly crisp the meat until just warmed through. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Lightly butter the outsides of all four pieces of bread. On the inside of the bread, divide half of the cheese between 2 of the bread slices. Top each piece of bread with equal amounts of hot pastrami, and onions. Top with the remaining cheese and then place remaining 2 pieces of bread on top of the cheese (buttered side facing out).
Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook, pressing occasionally with a spatula until the bread is toasted and the cheese melts, about 4 minutes per side, adding more butter to the pan if needed.

I would suggest making this now! Don't deprive yourself till Sunday. That's just mean.

The Skrill Premier
Hereford 1
Salisbury 0
Half time: 0-0
DOM Collins's diving header was enough to give cash-strapped Hereford United victory over Salisbury City as both sides battled in blustery conditions.
The telling moment came seven minutes after the restart when the right-back made a strong connection with Frankie Artus's corner at the far post.
Minutes before the winner was struck, The Bulls had a dominant spell of pressure which saw Will Puddy deny lanky striker Dan Walker and then flap an effort from Artus over the top.
Noisy home fans, who raised roughly £23,000 towards the £36,800 outstanding tax bill which was paid on Friday, provided an electric atmosphere inside Edgar Street.
But it didn't disrupt the hosts from putting in a strong last 30 minutes in search of a point. Warren Feeney, getting his second consecutive start, tried his luck and Elliott Frear curled one towards Daniel Lloyd-Weston's rearguard.
Then, Jamie White, cannoning a shot off the upright at the end of the first half, turned away from his marker inside the area but his attempt was blocked by Weston.
The Bulls were hanging onto their solitary lead by the thread and were let-off after City appeared to have legitimately scored an equaliser from a set-piece.
Substitute Rob Sinclair sent in a fizzing corner that clipped the post and seemed to clear the line before Weston swept to safety. Sinclair, along with a clan of yellow and blue shirts, led the protests to referee Paul Rees but the persuasiveness didn't rub off on his verdict.
Salisbury were incensed and mustered one more opportunity, this time Ryan Brett hit a long distance snapshot but Weston smuggled to safety.
Boss Mikey Harris described the defeat as daylight robbery.
"I feel completely robbed," he said.
"How we didn't get something from the game I don't understand. The major talking point is the goal that wasn't given. We've whipped one in from a wide area and it's clearly gone over the line.
"All the players know it and even Hereford's squad said we were unlucky because the ball crossed the line. With the way we were playing we could have gone on and maybe taken all three points.
"At least we deserved was a point. I'm gutted."
Salisbury City: (4-4-2): Puddy, MacDonald, Wilson (c), Dutton, Hart (Clarke, 53), Lewis, Kamdjo (R.Sinclair 60), Brett, Frear, Feeney, White (Fitchett, 80).
Subs not used: Bittner, Wellard.
Att: 2,060.
Referee: Paul Rees.
Star man: Elliott Frear.

If you wish to contact Cristiano Ronaldo, then the best thing to do is to write him a letter and physicaly mail it, since he has no official email to receive fans' feedback. So, if you're looking to send him a message, or make a request for Cristiano to sign a shirt or a photo, you should simply write a letter to the address below. (Please notice that your letter will probably be read by either some Real Madrid employee or eventually some Cristiano Ronaldo agent, and they will decide whether to deliver it or not, to Cristiano Ronaldo himself)
How to contact Cristiano Ronaldo >> Write this in the letter envelop:
Real Madrid C.F.
ATTENTION TO: Cristiano Ronaldo Dos Santos Aveiro
Avenida de Concha Espina, 1
Estadio Santiago Bernabéu
28036 Madrid
There are many fans who succesfully got their shirts, photos or other things signed back by Cristiano Ronaldo using this method, but that doesn't guarantee it will happen with everyone who tries to contact him.

Bengals' soccer season comes to an end
The playoff run for Buffalo State's women's soccer team ended Wednesday afternoon.
The No. 2-seeded Bengals were upset by No. 6 Geneseo, 2-1, in the SUNAYC semifinals at Coyer Field.
The Knights (7-7-5) scored twice in the opening eight minutes on goals from Erin O'Connor and Emily Green.
The Bengals applied pressure in the second half and got on the board when senior Shannon Yokopovich redirected a corner kick by Jordan Dudish (Grand Island) inside the right post in the 65th minute. While Buffalo State outshot Geneseo, 9-1, in the second half it could not notch the game-tying goal.
Buffalo State (11-6-2) finishes the season with 11 wins, matching the most wins the team has posted in a single season since 1984. The 11 victories also marks a six-win improvement over last year's record of 5-9-5.
Geneseo advances to the SUNYAC championship game Saturday at top-seeded Oneonta. It will be the Knights' first appearance in the title game since winning the championship in 2009.
