OCEAN CITY-The Ocean City girls basketball team is no stranger to playing games in March.
The Red Raiders annually have one of the region's best programs, with three South Jersey Group III titles in the last five seasons.
Ocean City has the chance to make it four titles in six years after beating Delsea Regional 41-23 in a sectional semifinal Saturday afternoon. The top-seeded Red Raiders (23-4), No. 10 in The Press Elite 11, will host No. 6 seed Timber Creek for the championship at 6 p.m. Monday.
Delsea (14-13), the fifth seed, had no answer for Ocean City's 6-foot-2 senior Julia Duggan. Duggan scored 17 points and grabbed 11 rebounds to lead her team to the sectional final.
Ocean City's defense prevented the Crusaders from getting open looks in the second half. Delsea was contained to eight points in the final two quarters. The Red Raiders drew their possessions out as long as they could, which was no easy task thanks to the Crusaders' pressure defense.
"We wanted to use up as much clock as possible," O.C. coach Paul Baruffi said. "We had to cut them off and (on defense) stay out on their shooters, especially (Delsea's Taylor Christina and Amanda Schmidt)."
Ocean City's plan worked. Schmidt led the Crusaders with eight points but was scoreless in the second half. Christina was limited to five points.
As it has all season, Duggan's post presence sparked Ocean City's offense. She scored eight points during a second quarter that put the Red Raiders up by 10 at halftime. Several times she was waiting under the net to put back missed shots.
Duggan won a South Jersey title in 2011 at as a sophomore. She has enjoyed numerous individual achievements since then.
With her high school basketball career near its end, Duggan wants to help her teammates win a championship of their own.
"It was one of the goals I had for this year. I got a title my sophomore year. I got my 1,000 points, I got my 1,000 rebounds," Duggan said. "Now it's time for me to do this for them."
Duggan is surrounded by a talented cast. Seniors Katie Johnson, Mary Kate Mateer and Natalie Landi are aggressive defenders and capable scorers. Freshman Nicole Piergross has shown maturity and composure in big games despite her youth.
Piergross became a starting guard when sophomore Karissa Bourbeau suffered a season-ending knee injury in Ocean City's second game of the season. She has thrived in her new role.
"It's surreal that I get to experience this as a freshman. It's very exciting," Piergross said.
Ocean City has cruised through the South Jersey Group III bracket. The Red Raiders outscored its opponents by an average of 22 points in the first three rounds.
Timber Creek upset third-seeded Central Regional with a one-point victory before beating a very strong No. 7 seed Seneca in the semifinals.
If the Red Raiders play as consistently as they have, they can win another South Jersey title - the first for some and the second for others.
"We wanted to get there. Now we're there, so we've got to (win it)," Duggan said.

Rock Hall of Fame Broadcast to Be Dedicated to Beasties' Adam 'MCA' Yauch
By Gary Graff
HBO's broadcast of the 2012 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, which debuts at 9 p.m. ET Saturday will be dedicated to Adam "MCA" Yauch of the Beastie Boys, who were inducted on April 14 in Cleveland. Yauch died Friday morning at the age of 47 after a long battle with cancer.
Tributes For Beastie Boys' Adam 'MCA' Yauch Pour In: Russell Simmons, Rev Run, Bill Adler, More
An HBO spokesperson tells Billboard.com that the show's ending has been changed to include a photo of the rapper and musician -- who passed away on Friday at the age of 47, following a nearly three-year battle with cancer -- with text that reads "In Memory of Adam Yauch." The two-and-a-half-hour show had already been altered to include Levon Helm and Dick Clark during the In Memoriam section, even though both died during the week following the event.
Adam Yauch and The Beastie Boys From The Billboard Archives
Yauch did not attend the ceremony at Cleveland's Town Hall but sent a letter that was read to the audience by fellow Beastie Boy Adam "Ad-Rock" Horovitz. Yauch's parents, Frances and Noel Yauch, attended the ceremony and were thanked for their support in their son's letter as well as by Horovitz and Mike "Mike D" Diamond.
The bulk of Yauch's Rock hall induction letter read:
"I'd like to dedicate this award to my brothers, Adam and Mike, who've walked the globe with me. To anyone who's been touched by our band, who our music has meant something to, this induction is as much ours as it is yours. To Kate Schellenbach. To John Berry. To John Berry's loft in Brooklyn where John's dad would come busting in during our first practices screaming, 'Would you turn that f***ing s*** off already!' ...
"To my loving and supportive parents, Noel and Frances Yauch, and to our home in Brooklyn where we used to practice on hot Brooklyn days after school, windows wide open to disturb the neighborhood ... But most of all I'd like to thank and dedicate this honor to my smart, beautiful and loving wife Dechen and our sweet, talented, loving daughter Tenzin. Never has a man felt more blessed than I to be able to spend my time with my two soulmates. I love you guys more than you know.
"I wish I could name everyone who deserves to be named, but of course there's too many names to name. You know who you are, and I sent my love out to all of you. Your friend, Adam Yauch."
Analysis: The Beastie Boys' Trailblazing Billboard Chart History
The other two Beastie Boys chose not to perform during the ceremony; instead Kid Rock, Gym Class Heroes Travie McCoy and the Roots delivered a well-received medley of the group's favorites.
HBO has 14 other airings scheduled for HBO and HBO2, while HBO Signature will air the special for 24 hours on Sunday, May 6.

Plumbing Questions? Ask a Plumber and Get Answers ASAP.
Welcome to Just Answer!Because of the way air can be trapped in the system if you reverse the hot and cold connections to the panel it can stop the water flow... the panels can then overheat.Give me some details on what problems you are experiencing, we can go from there without any time limit.Phil
Thank you for your answer.
With the hot water being taken from the bottom of the unit and the cold going into the top – I am concerned as to whether this would make the unit less efficient and more reliant upon the gas boost ie would this increase my gas bill by any appreciable amount. When I turn the boost off, there seems to be not much hot water even in summer.
Thanks Phil,
Does this reduction of 30 - 50% in efficiency directly relate to a similar percentage increase in gas usage
Thanks Phil
We engaged a plumber in March this year to check on the HWS.
He replaced a faulty pump and also reported that the hot and cold pipes were incorrectly installed when the initial installation of the panels was carried out.( that was when the house was built in late 2007)
The pipework was repiped to ensure correct direction of flow.
What I am attempting to establish is what effect the faulty workmanship would have had on the unit and the gas bill.
Thanks for the info Phil and the promptness of your replies.

That's Rudd rooted then, Bookie pays out all Coalition bets
An Aussie bookmaker has paid out on a Coalition win…if the bookies abandon you that is pretty much the end of things for Kevin Rudd.
Sportsbet has declared the federal election a one-horse race and we're paying out all bets on the Coalition nine days before Australia goes to the polls.
We're so confident of a landslide Coalition victory for Tony Abbott and his team, we've paid out more than $1.5 million in bets to our members – a first in Australian federal election history.
Following last night's third and final debate between the two leaders, the Coalition is at Black Caviar-like odds ($1.03) to claim government. (We paid out on the wonder mare as well!)
Kevin Rudd and Labor is $11 to win the election – their highest price since betting markets opened immediately following the 2010 federal election. Read more »

MEMPHIS, Tenn. The Jazz flew to Memphis on Thursday for a four-game trip that opens tonight against the Grizzlies.
For a couple of rookies, it was a particularly momentous flight.
The Jazz decided Thursday to stick with both big man Robert Whaley and shooting guard Andre Owens, meaning each's $399,000 contract becomes fully guaranteed for the remainder of the season.
"We're trying to build a team, and I think we've been happy with them," Jazz basketball operations senior vice president Kevin O'Connor said of the two. "Robert (Whaley) has contributed in a few games, and Andre (Owens) was a pretty big part in helping us win a couple."
Owens was undrafted this past summer out of the University of Houston, and his contract for the season previously was non-guaranteed.
Whaley was a late second-round pick, and his deal was only partially guaranteed.
All NBA contracts for players still on a roster as of next Tuesday, and because of procedural concerns 48 business-day hours must pass before clearing waivers the actual deadline for releasing players without having to pay them for the rest of the same came early Thursday night.
For Whaley, whose place with the team has been particularly uncertain throughout the season, the decision should offer quite a bit of comfort.
"It's been on my mind," he said Thursday. "But I try not to think about it as much so I can stay focused on what I'm trying to do out there on the court."
The reserve center from tiny Walsh (Ohio) University also sees the Jazz's call as a wise one: "I think that I help out," Whaley said. "I think I'm getting a lot better. I've learned a lot, and hopefully they see it."
Because they evidently do, Whaley now can focus on priorities broader in scope than ensuring his rookie contract will be paid in full."My little goal was to make it to each (partial guarantee) date, but my ultimate goal is to play in the NBA and stay in the NBA not just be an average player (for) three years or four years," he said. "I'm going to do whatever it takes to make this what I do forever."
SLOAN ON MILES: The Jazz's other second-round pick, shooting guard C.J. Miles, was assigned Wednesday to Albuquerque of the NBA Development League.
On Thursday, coach Jerry Sloan revealed what he said before the 18-year-old began to pack his bags.
"Go down there and try to make the best of it," Sloan said he told Miles. "See where you are with your game. See what you have to work on."
Sloan suggested the move was made purely to aid the development of Miles, who is expected to rejoin the Jazz later this month after playing in five games or so for Albuquerque."I think it will be good for him," Sloan said of Miles, who has been inactive for the Jazz's last seven games and has not played in 22 of 32 games this season. "We didn't do it as punishment. . . . We're trying to give a guy a chance to become a better basketball player."
NO BOOZER: Forward Carlos Boozer, out all season with a strained hamstring, did not accompany the Jazz to Memphis.
He probably will not be with the team again until after the Jazz return from Philadelphia next Wednesday but may be able to play before the end of the month.Meanwhile, center Greg Ostertag returned to practice Thursday morning after sitting out Wednesday due to a head cold.

A transformation is taking place at UC Davis School of Law's Mabie Law Library as construction progresses rapidly in the effort to renovate and modernize the "old" King Hall building to complement the state-of-the-art expansion wing that opened to faculty and students at the beginning of the 2010-11 academic year.
On the second floor, classrooms have been renovated to match the layout, aesthetic elegance, and technological capacity of those in the new east wing, including a "horseshoe" seating configuration and shallower vertical drop from the back of the room to the front to create an enhanced feeling of intimacy. Improvements also include new reading space and the Hugh and Hazel Darling Lounge, which is being created between the old computer lab and the new reading room. Improvements to the basement include expanded office spaces for student organizations such as the Law Review and journals, significant improvements to student lockers, three and one-half new reading rooms, and an expanded and improved student lounge. On the first floor, work is underway in the Mabie Law Library to expand and improve the lobby and remodel the existing reading room. Nearby, a news classroom is being created in the space adjacent to the Wilkins Moot Courtroom.
If the project continues to progress as expected, renovation work should be complete before the end of 2012. The Law School is still seeking to raise more than $2 million in order to realize the full potential of the King Hall Expansion and Renovation Project. To find out how you can help, please contact Jean Korinke, Assistant Dean for Development and Alumni Relations, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
I called the IRS and this is what I was told by them.
I have to deduct the "dry hole Expense" on Sch C under other expenses since apparently a 1099 was issued for $120 in nonemployee compensation.
If you disagree, please tell me.
Where would I deduct it on the Sch E?
I am in the business of investing in oil & gas driling ventures. In the past all transactions have been partnerships and I would receive a K-1 and use the Sch E. That is why I am confused about this.
This venture was call a subscription. I just received the 1099 Misc Income with box 7 showing non employee compensation from Grand Southern Resources ( a drilling company). The compensation was for the minute amount of oil & gas collected during the drilling process.
Thank you so much for your time with this matter.

FORT MYERS BEACH, Fla. - Hundreds of pounds of cocaine were stopped before making it to the streets of Florida.
The United States Coast Guard said it stopped more than $11 million worth of coke as part of 'Operation Martillo'.
The Coast Guard released the above picture showing the crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Marlin offloading the drugs in Fort Myers Beach on Thursday.
The Marlin is an 87-foot coastal patrol boat homeported in Fort Myers Beach.
The Coast Guard said 'Operation Martillo', "is one component in the United States government's whole-of-government approach to countering the use of the Central American littorals as transshipment routes for illicit drugs, weapons, and cash."

An international prospective randomised multicenter study proposed by the European Association for Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation is about to be launched!
Consistent findings of respiratory muscle fatigue with reduced inspiratory pressure-generating capacity indicate a decrease in inspiratory muscle strength in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Recent studies support the use of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in improving exercise capacity and in particular the symptom of dyspnoea in patients with CHF. VENT-HEFT is a multicenter trial aiming to investigate the additive effect of IMT on whole body endurance training standard cardiac rehabilitation programmes for CHF patients.
Simply randomize stable CHF patients (NYHA class II-IV, EF <35%) in either a group (preferably, at least, 10-12 per center) participating in an endurance (e.g. bike) training programme or in another group (preferably, at least, 10-12 per center) following exactly the same training programme (e.g. bike) plus IMT. Inspiratory muscle training will be performed by using an inspiratory incremental endurance testing device, a software with an electronic mouth pressure manometer interfaced to a computer. This device provides endurance training at a percentage of individual sustained maximal inspiratory pressure (SPimax). Inspiratory muscle training should be performed at least 3 times per week for 12 weeks in the hospital (supervised) while intensity of training is suggested at 60% of SPimax and length of training to respiratory fatigue.
Pre- and post-training, exercise capacity should be measured using ergospirometry (peakVO2) and/or the 6-min walk test while dyspnoea by the Borg scale at the end of exercise testing. Measurement of Quality of Life should be performed using the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure questionnaire. You can also evaluate ventricular function and structure using 2-dimensional echocardiography and lung function by spirometry. Finally, is very useful to keep records regarding morbidity and possibly mortality of patients participating in the programme. Apart from these basic measurements, each center may approach its own CHF patients by measuring some other parameters (i.e. blood samples, Holter monitoring) they consider important in clinical and research terms.
For centers wishing to participate in this interesting multicenter trial, please register asking for the protocol and conduct:

Oy vey. I'm a little verklempt to be writing the very last post of Cookie Bookie 2010. Three Octobers ago when I started this little blog of mine, I thought it would be fun to share my favorite fall cookies and some spooky reads. I had only a handful of readers, and they were mostly just relatives, trying to be supportive. By the next year, my reader family had multiplied. A few kind readers emailed to ask if I was planning to do Cookie Bookie again. And so the tradition was born, thanks to you all. This time around I've had a whole year to test cookies and read scary stories. I saved the sweetest and scariest for last....
Caramel Cookies with Cornflakes, Marshmallows, and Peanut Butter M and Ms
1/2 cup unsalted softened butter (if you use salted, cut the added salt by a generous pinch)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butters and sugars until fluffy. Add vanilla, molasses and the egg. Stir in soda, powder, and salt. Add flour, mixing until just blended. Stir in cornflakes, marshmallows and 1/2 cup M and Ms. Scoop cookies by generous 1/4 cup full portions into balls and place on two cookie sheets with two inches of space between cookies. You should have between 10 and 12 cookies. Bake for about ten minutes, or until tops are just beginning to carmelize. Poke remaining M and Ms atop the still warm cookies. These cookies are equally good warm and at room temperature. For the best texture, stick with room temp.

Nintendo president Saturo Iwata has described sales of the Wii U as "steady".
The company, however, has still not revealed any concrete sales numbers, although neither has it retracted its initial target of 5.5m Wii U unit sales by the end of March.
So far we know that the console sold 400,000 Wii U consoles in its first week in the US and 40,000 in the same period in the UK. It also sold nearly 640,000 in Japan between December 8th-30th.
So the 1m barrier has been broken. But UK sales have slowed dramatically, and if the same has happened overseas then the console it might struggle to reach its targets.
"At the end of the Christmas season, it wasn't as though stores in the US had no Wii U left in stock, as it was when Wii was first sold in that popular boom," he told Reuters. "But sales are not bad, and I feel it's selling steadily."
The exec did acknowledge, however, that producing two different Wii U models (the Basic and the Premium) was a "challenge", with the cheaper SKU struggling to shift units.
"It was the first time Nintendo released two models of the game console at the same time and I believe there was a challenge with balancing this," he added. "Specifically, inventory levels for the premium, deluxe package was unbalanced as many people wanted that version and couldn't find it."
Nintendo's share price has fallen 15 per cent since the launch of Wii U at the end of November.

Pretoria - North West deputy provincial police chief William Mpembe was overcome by emotion and lost control after two policemen were killed at Marikana on August 13, 2012, the Farlam Commission of Inquiry heard on Monday.
"He arrived at the scene [where officers had been hacked to heath], he was in a state of shock,"Lt-Col Salmon Vermaak told the public hearings in Pretoria.
He explained Mpembe's reaction after the two officers were killed following a confrontation with protesting Lonmin miners.
"To me it was clear that at that stage that he [Mpembe] had actually lost control over the members. All the members were just standing around and there was no definite person who was in control of the group."
"He ran to me and said his policemen had been killed. I tried to calm him down," said Vermaak.
"He was totally in a shocked state. He was running between the members saying 'my policemen have been killed, my policemen have been killed'," said Vermaak.
Vermaak said he later removed Mpembe from the scene because of a death threat. Officers were threatening to kill Mpembe to avenge the death of their two colleagues.
Three days later, on August 16, 2012, police shot and killed 34, mostly protesting miners, at Lonmin's platinum mining operations at Marikana, near Rustenburg in North West.
At least 78 miners were also wounded when police fired on the group gathered at a hill near the mine while trying to disarm and disperse them.
In the preceding week, 10 people, including two policemen and two security guards, were killed in the strike-related violence.
The commission led by retired judge Ian Farlam is probing the 44 deaths.
Unlike all other police officers who have testified at the inquiry, Vermaak is being led in giving his testimony by evidence leaders.
Other police officers have been led by SA Police Service lawyers at the commission.
Vermaak will be cross-examined by the police lawyers.
In January, evidence submitted to the inquiry showed that Vermaak lashed out, criticising the police's handling of the Marikana strike.
Vermaak wrote a memo to provincial commissioner Zukiswa Mbombo outlining numerous flaws in the police intervention management of the strike.
The correspondence titled "Unrest: Marikana and Rustenburg: 2012", was also copied to North West provincial head of operational response services.
On the Marikana intervention, Vermaak made a long list of "shortcomings" by the police.
"Senior officers do planning without any experience in serious incidents and this causes that [the SAPS] afterwards [must] explain their actions.
"Marikana is a very good example where senior management was warned before specific actions [were] taken but they did not give attention to the advice.
"This type of ignorance put the national and provincial commissioners in a very difficult situation. Officers and members do planning without knowledge of the Gatherings Act," wrote Vermaak.
He questioned the training of the police officers who were deployed to manage the crowds of protesting miners.
"Members are not properly trained at training institutions, some of the instructors were never exposed to any of the incidents which he must lecture. There is a big difference between book knowledge and experience on the ground," wrote Vermaak.
He said members of the public order policing unit (POP) used to be issued with video equipment and adequately trained in the use thereof, so as to have credible evidence when required.
"POP doesn't have this capacity anymore. Some of the video footage that was taken during Marikana incidents did not have any value. I never saw a commander anymore with a voice recorder when he negotiates with [protest] leaders, for reference purposes afterwards."
Vermaak also questioned the police officers' capabilities to operate State equipment, particularly vehicles.
"Members with code EC (10) were given the Nyala keys during this period [Marikana unrest] and had never had any training to operate a Nyala and that causes a lot of expenditure that was not budgeted for.
"The availability of information [intelligence] before incidents does not exist anymore. In the past, there was an information office at each unit and they managed their own informers, some were attending courses to handle the informers," wrote Vermaak.
On Monday, some of the miners' widows were dressed in branded in ed Economic Freedom Fighters T-shirts.

New Delhi: Congress party president Sonia Gandhi, in an official statement from the office of the National Advisory Council on Saturday, called out for collective efforts to resolve the "menace of violence" against women.
"Our hearts go out to her parents and her family. The whole country shares their pain. Today we pledge that she will get justice, that her fight will not have been in vain," she said in an official release. In an apparent reference to those protesting for a week now, Gandhi said, "...I want to assure you that your voice has been heard."
The Congress chief had earlier made a statement on Friday condemning the incident.
Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi also offered condolences to the family of the victim. "As citizens, we must resolve to respect the dignity of women and follow the laws of the land," he said in an official release from his office.
"We as a nation must reflect on the events of the days gone by," he added in an apparent reference to the protests that saw violent clashes between protesters and police forces last Sunday near New Delhi's India Gate.
The 23-year-old woman who was gang-raped in the national capital on 16 December died in the early of Saturday in a Singapore hospital, where she was shifted to after her condition worsened.
Both Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and President Pranab Mukherjee have condemned the assault. While the main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party has requested a special session of Parliament and subsequently an all-party meeting on the issue, neither has been convened, making the special session a key demand of young protesters.

Zoe hates that she's been pushing away her best friend, Morgan, especially when she knows he could be the love of her life. But she's got a secret - a big one - and she knows that if Morgan ever finds out what she's been keeping from him, she'll lose not only his love but his friendship.
There's only ever been one woman for Morgan, and that's Zoe - except that she's been distancing herself for the last four years, and he doesn't have the faintest idea why.
When Zoe spots a man who's the spitting image of Morgan's long-lost father, Morgan asks her to look into it further, not realizing he's put her life at risk. Yet with Morgan determined to keep Zoe safe and make her realize they're meant to be together, can Zoe keep her secret, or will she finally confess it all and ruin everything that's between them?
This novel does contain a happily ever after ending for the couple.

"Star crossed lovers..."
So glad that I stuck it out with this series...this book was greeeeat! The H was a good guy who was trying to make up for past mistakes and the h was likeable. Onto Maddie's story...
"Love and surrender"
The story teller didn't impress me. Didn't change his voice enough to match the characters, ladies did not sound like ladies. Good story love the series.
"Just bad..."
This is the third book in the Billionaire's Temptation Series and I listened to the first two with contentment, having read the reviews and knowing that these stories are light, predictable, and easy (and some might say under-developed) stories while needing an escape from reality. I assumed that the third would be the same but unfortunately it was not, and here is why...
1) The audio quality of this recording is, well, just bad. Not what I would expect from audible's typically high quality listens. There is an echo-like sound throughout the recording that is distracting and not up to snuff no matter how much you've paid for the audiobook. Personally, I wouldn't have wanted to pay $1 for it.
2) The narrator is different from the narrator of the first two books and he is off. His narration comes off as robotic at times, with random pauses as if he reached the end of a line and paused to find his place on the next line. Also, the characters in these books are brothers who live in New England and this narrator has a southern drawl that does not fit the character or belong in the story. (As a southerner, I have no problem with the accent but his is just out of place and borders on in coherent at times. Alabama is my best guess ;)
I gave the story 3 stars because it's not great or terrible, just neutral. And perhaps I know what I'm getting in to with these types of books. Some might hate the story because it is lacking in substance but I recommend them when you just want to zone out and listen to a mindless romance.

Many arcades this week at Grand Rapids
Pretty exciting. I popped out on Monday like I normally do to see if there was anything.
Well, there are a ton of games, all starting around $25.
They have a Ms. Pac, Jr. Pac (conversion), Galaga, Qbert, Mr. Do! (Pac-man cab), Arkanoid, Centipede Cabaret and Lethal Enforcers. I have a feeling I might seriously bid on the Galaga depending on condition. Supposedly it works. The Ms. Pac looks like it has great color in the sideart too, and Qbert is just a cool game.
We'll see how this develops, I have until Thursday to decide.

Transformation process of Circunvalation way in Barcelona
The new transformation of the Circunvalación walk and the need to upgrade some facilities at Barcelona Zoo are the starting point of the project.
The new public library, the future of França Railway Station and the demolition of the walls of Ciutadella park create a new meeting point, where the desire to connect the park with the sea borns again. Ignasi Sola Morales describes this type of terrain vague spaces such as "... the shape of the absence in the metropolis." And claims the value of history, the traces of time, in these spaces.
The project is the addition of two main actions: a connection over the infrastructures between the park and the sea, and the transformation of the Circunvalación walk to transform it into a public space, recovering lost urban values and new uses and functions, to update at the same time the city and the Zoo, which is involved in a process of adaptation to the twenty-first century, where release, education, research and conservation are the principal points of the World Zoo and Aquarium Conservation Strategy (WZACS).

The Radicati Group names Intermedia as a "top player" in its hosted Exchange market quadrant - second only to Microsoft itself.

Bill McGloine says he asked his staff about disaster recovery when he was named information technology director at Korg USA about a year and a half ago. 'The answer was simple: There was no plan,' he says. The distributor of musical instruments was caught up in a 'small business mentality from years ago,' he says, and needed to reassess how dependent it had become on technology for day-to-day operations. At the time, the technology group was preparing to upgrade its e-mail server and phone system, but McGloine pulled the plug on those plans. Instead, he signed the company up for Microsoft Exchange hosting with Intermedia.net.
Microsoft named it [Intermedia] as the largest hosted Exchange provider partner in the world.
Tier 1 Research
Tier 1 Research
"[Intermedia] is a privately held firm that has developed an interesting niche in the communications services business: hosting Microsoft Exchange services, along with other enhanced communications services to small and mid-size businesses. For one monthly fee, customers get VoIP telephony, smartphones, business email, instant messaging, fax, and other communications functions delivered as a service."
VoIP Planet
Differences among iPhone, Android and BlackBerry users were a bit surprising in another survey by Intermedia, a Microsoft Exchange hosting provider. Intermedia found that 50 percent of employees at small and midsized businesses use smartphones to access e-mail. And it's interesting to note that Android devices receive more overall messages than the BlackBerry, which has traditionally been viewed as the messaging king. What about iPhone owners? They fire off the most outgoing messages, earning the title of "most chatty," says Intermedia.
CIO Magazine
It's because its [Intermedia's] own hosted Exchange offering, and the pieces around it, provide a very compelling reason to choose it over a commodity direct offering.
Tier 1 Research
It [Intermedia] recognizes it's not about applications, but the service around it. It's about how easy it is to use, and how much control is offered. On-premises Exchange customers desire these levels of control when making the transition to cloud. It also can provide confidence in where the data is stored, with sizeable infrastructure across seven datacenters, six in the US and one in the UK. These are all concerns when making the leap from on-premises to hosted Exchange. These businesses aren't concerned with saving a couple of bucks per seat at the expense of usability, management and support, nor having to go to several vendors to build out a hosted IT product for something that isn't nearly as integrated.

Channel Insider, the leading channel market publication, calls Intermedia, "The market's leading Exchange hosting provider."
Channel Insider
Intermedia continues to push forward in the hosted Exchange market... organizations continue to see the logic in moving on-premise Exchange servers into third-party datacenters. It makes too much sense from a cost, performance and efficiency perspective, while allowing customers to easily and affordably consume value-added services like archiving, security and disaster recovery.
Tier-1 Research
…the company [Intermedia] can be considered a one-stop IT shop with a deep Exchange expertise history.

What the Intermedia milestone and the continued success of other hosted email providers may reflect is a tipping point when on-premises email becomes obsolete and cloud-based email is the dominant digital communications medium. In that regard, Intermedia and other service providers like it are leading the way forward into the email cloud.
On Intermedia's service: "Reasonable price and excellent service! Exchange 2010's web interface is nice, very nice. Works just like the fat client version of Microsoft Outlook and behaves on Firefox too!"
Paul MahIT Business Edge
"[Intermedia] service has been rock stable to date. In addition, I am left impressed by the stellar and prompt technical support - the support folks at Intermedia certainly know what they are talking about. One reason I opted for Intermedia is due to it being the world's largest provider of Microsoft Exchange hosting.
"Intermedia also supports BlackBerry and Exchange ActiveSync. I was able to activate my BlackBerry with my new account without having to bother with installing BES or perform any additional configuration. Should I lose my device, the custom controls mean that I can bypass Intermedia support to perform a remote data wipe directly from the Web interface."
"As hosted services increase in reliability, it simply does not make sense to run one's own e-mail servers... Indeed, the cost of hardware, software licenses, upgrades, and maintenance can stack up quickly. Done correctly, the per-seat cost reductions gained by going for a hosted service can be significant for smaller businesses."
"Exchange 2010 offers superior Outlook Web Access, with an experience matching that of Microsoft's Outlook client. E-mails can be dragged between folders, while calendar entries can be moved around and resized. In fact, doing a right-click over various items will bring out relevant context menus instead of the standard browser options."
Paul MahIT BusinessEdge
Intermedia is one of the largest and fastest growing Exchange providers in the market today, and we are pleased to see them reach the 500,000 subscriber milestone – proving their success at offering a valuable channel program, for partners looking to resell a powerful solution under their own brand. The cloud levels the playing field for SMBs, helping them compete in today's fast-moving business environment. Intermedia's cloud services offer easy migration and a powerful set of control panels that are complemented by industry-leading customer support.

In the past, unified communications required complex integration of hardware, software and service from multiple vendors - putting the approach out of reach for most SMBs. These businesses need the same capabilities as larger businesses, but delivered as a service that is simple to set-up, easy to administrate and backed by 24x7 support. Intermedia's offering achieves this, leveling the competitive playing field.
Michael OstermanOsterman Research
[Intermedia] released some estimates of how small businesses can reduce their carbon footprints and save money by outsourcing their communications technology…Communications complexity is growing, but so are the potential benefits in other parts of the business, so you can see the potential appeal. The economies of scale of outsourcing also mean that it's usually a greener solution.
Green IT Report
Hosted email specialist Intermedia says it has experienced explosive growth in its Exchange 2010 customer base — and a spokesperson says that these numbers represent proof that Intermedia is leading Exchange's charge against Google Apps.
Reading between the lines, what Intermedia is trying to say is that while Google Apps has certainly been a disruptive force in the hosted application market, it's not enterprise ready — and what Microsoft and Intermedia has whipped up, well, is.
Intermedia appears to be ahead of Microsoft's own Exchange SaaS efforts in some areas. While Intermedia has offered Hosted Exchange 2010 since 2009, Microsoft itself continues to promote Exchange 2007 as the primary SaaS email platform within the Microsoft Business Productivity Online Suite (BPOS).
Technology companies of all stripes, shapes and sizes are looking at hosted services as a complementary offering and are becoming service providers. But that is obviously not an easy transition and it is no surprise that they would look to a partner, especially when it comes to something like hosted Exchange.
Tier-1 Research
The uptick Intermedia has experienced signals some trends in the market, but it should not obscure the fact that the company has done a solid job of growing through far less than optimal conditions.
Tier-1 Research
Intermedia also recently launched its UK operations and have already signed on some customers. The new UK operations present some immediate upside for the company because some of its existing US-based customers have a presence in Europe and will translate that into more seats sooner than later.

Hosted Microsoft Exchange provider Intermdia is making a big step towards a real, cloud-delivered unified communications (UC) product with the launch of its hosted PBX service, targeted at giving even the smallest of enterprises a voice-over-IP (VoIP) solution that integrates with their messaging system.
The Var Guy
Users of all three Intermedia hosted communications services can see when colleagues are on the phone and just click to call them when they're off. And [Jonathan] McCormick [Intermedia COO] says it's a snap for existing Intermedia customers to add this new services onto any in-place hosted deployments. Besides, since the PBX is hosted, the TCO drops below that of a legacy phone system, he claims.

Many SMBs who are still using basic telephone service to run their business will benefit from the professional image a hosted PBX service like Intermedia brings. Through the Intermedia offering, companies can set up Exchange-based unified communications – enabling employees to manage email and voice services from Outlook. An organization that makes extensive use of email, telephony or real time communications – or that will want to do so in the future – will realize enormous benefits from the use of a unified communications infrastructure.

VoIP and hosted PBX services are maturing, and countless suppliers and service providers have stepped up to enable businesses to abandon their old telephony infrastructures in favor of subscriptions that allow for the use of both desktop phones and PC softphones that can provide call management, voicemail, call forwarding and many other capabilities at a low cost…there are providers who offer the benefits companies are looking for who are solid players. Here are seven providers of online VoIP and hosted PBX services that are worth a look….Intermedia provides a full hosted PBX solution with pricing at about $30 per user per month. Perhaps the biggest selling point of this versus softphone-only services is that the service enables the use of SIP phones.
Channel Insider
Intermedia's UC solution relies on Microsoft Exchange and some of the features the set-up offers help ease the sales process for SMBs. OCS Calling brings up all a customers information on a sales rep's screen, making sure they have all the relevant data at their fingertips for a successful sales call. The use of the OCS calling feature by Intermedia's customers has more than doubled since the release of their Hosted PBX product. The 'follow me' feature allows sales reps to go mobile and not worry about missing a call from a client.
Fierce VoIP
Cloud provider Intermedia added policy-based email encryption to its hosted Exchange service, with an eye on smaller businesses dealing with data security challenges and complex government regulations…Policy-based encryption was something Intermedia's current customers had been asking for, according to [Jonathan] McCormick, [Intermedia COO], often prompted by federal and state laws that govern their privacy practices. Those include both long-standing regulations such as HIPAA, as well as new or pending legislation at the state level, such as the data privacy law enacted in Massachusetts last year.

Why won't customers just go to Mozy for the services? Why buy from Intermedia? The truth is that there are differences between Intermedia's service and Mozy's direct retail service. First and foremost is the integration within Intermedia's control panel. Staying with a single user experience, account, login, password and billing relationship has a great deal of value. In many cases, this will be enough to tip the scales in favor of Intermedia and the convenience should be compelling. Everyone wants more applications, but more than that, they want applications that can do more. Integration with HostPilot does just that – making a single interface/application more powerful. But just as importantly, Intermedia is enhancing integration with other communication and messaging services. For example, Intermedia is going to integrate online backup directly into Outlook and allow users to initiate restores and backups right within Outlook.
Tier One Research
Small businesses (startups, single-person companies, etc.) desirous of a more professional public face - are working on free tools like Skype and Google Voice and their cell phone.

I've been using a hosted version of Microsoft Exchange 2010 through Intermedia…I hated Outlook Web Access in Exchange 2007 and earlier. The Outlook Web App in Exchange 2010 is a complete game-changer. It can match the desktop version of Outlook feature for feature, and it feels like an app, not a fancy web page.

Well-known hosted Exchange provider Intermedia looks to expand their partner success outside of the US. Specifically, Intermedia wants to help European partners capitalize on a projected boom in hosted mailboxes. Meanwhile, some VARs and MSPs say they may move away from Microsoft's own BPOS services.
MSP Mentor
Simply put: Intermedia's Cloud Server sets the stage for budding cloud solution providers that are looking to attack the market without owning any infrastructure. The customizable nature of the platform also allows partners to mix and match services outside of Intermedia while still maintaining their branding capabilities. But most importantly, Intermedia's willingness to involve partners in the platform — combined with the burgeoning demands of the SMB — mean this solution set hits a sweet spot in the channel.
Companies like Intermedia are striving to provide a safe haven to solutions providers that want to re-brand SaaS applications as their own.
MSP Mentor
Solutions providers that offer BPOS essentially promote Microsoft's brand to end-customers. In contrast, Intermedia's white label partner program allows solutions providers to rebrand hosted applications as their own.
The Var Guy
[Intermedia] resellers will get a nice head start on the competition, enabling them to capture customers that have been waiting for Exchange 2010 and are either ready to adopt hosted Exchange now that the new version is out or make the upgrade.
Tier-1 Research
The Intermedia Exchange 2010 offering is impressive, given that it provides its resellers with access to a hot cloud-based application without the expense of building infrastructure for hosting and supporting numerous clients. The company built a special platform just for Exchange 2010 to ensure reliability. And, the private-label Exchange 2010 program is coupled with the existing referral program through which partners can earn money by selling Intermedia's other hosted services—SharePoint, Communications Server, Exchange 2007.
Channel Insider
Intermedia makes the value to solution providers clear: faster benefit, lower risk. Rather than having to make the investment in expensive servers and integrating Exchange for service delivery, Intermedia makes the service practically plug-and-play. Additionally, Intermedia assumes the costs of monitoring and maintaining the infrastructure. Both are good value proTestimonialPositions for solution providers, who often can't afford the initial capital outlay for infrastructure.
Channel Insider
Partners working with Intermedia clearly are responding to trends developing in the marketplace.
Tier-1 Research
Intermedia is involved with large hosting and consulting firms across the U.S. and Europe. If you're a VAR searching for a hosted Exchange offering, ask the service provider who's actually powering the system. In quite a few cases, the hidden answer is Intermedia.
The Var Guy
Host with the Most. The relationship between Ingram Micro Seismic and Intermedia, the hosted Exchange specialist, seems to be flourishing. The relationship has led to more than 5,000 mailbox deployments involving hundreds of partners and increasing growth on a monthly basis, according to Intermedia.

Intermedia's rapidly growing sales through Ingram are also good news for the distributor's efforts to build up its managed services offerings…This week Ingram Micro gave Intermedia its Services Award of Excellence for 2010, announcing the award at the distributor's annual marketing symposium in Anaheim, Calif.
Several companies continue to grow and Intermedia is clearly one of them. [They] have performed consistently... [and] built a nice foundation…the timing could not be better… with growing interest in third-party outsourcing, migration to online communications, proliferation in Web-enabled mobile devices and a growing population of remote workers and teams.

The Intermedia reseller portfolio also includes hosted Microsoft Exchange, so VARs and MSPs can offer a hosted convergence platform to their customers, including: voice, email and instant messaging. That allows these SMB customers to improve their employee and system productivity with an integrated communications system, which typically increases their customer satisfaction at the same time. With the ability to "white label" the hosted PBX offering, it gives solution providers another value added option for their portfolio.

David Platt has defended Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini following his outburst against Ajax.
The Blues chief ran on to the pitch after the 2-2 draw, which all but ends the north-west side's participation in the competition, to remonstrate with referee Peter Rasmussen.
Man City striker Sergio Aguero had a goal ruled out for offside in the 88th minute and Mario Balotelli was denied an injury-time penalty as Rasmussen blew the final whistle.
Mancini also clashed with the cameraman who filmed him at close proximity as he walked across the pitch but later said he had only been telling him to stop recording.
First-team coach Platt said: "Why wouldn't the manager of a football club be frustrated? Why wouldn't we all be frustrated?
"Players are frustrated, supporters are frustrated, staff are frustrated.
"Robbie has gone onto the pitch and spoken to the referee. As he comes back, he turns around and has a camera in front of his face for 30 yards.
"He turns around and says, in English, that basically it is enough now.
"People then want to start talking about what has happened and almost exaggerating the incident."
Platt added: "I don't think he is the first manager to go onto the pitch.
"If you go on to Wikipedia you'll see has done it before, not just as a manager but as a player. He wears his heart on his sleeve."

Last year at this time, many of us knew that the coming year would provide a plethora of opportunities and challenges for our industry, but I don't think anybody quite expected to encounter the challenges we faced this past year. But as you have heard before, challenges provide the opportunity to rise to the occasion, and that we certainly did.
The economic situation had been sliding well before 2008 ever showed its face, and although it may be worse now than expected, many water dealers have been prepared and are staying afloat. As in any industry during an economic predicament, Darwinism has come into play and the business-savvy water dealers are surviving and thriving. In 2008, dealers have grown their rentals, expanded service offerings and embarked—and succeeded—in new market sectors such as commercial and light industrial. This sort of business expansion is great for our industry and should enable growth for years to come.
But perhaps the greatest obstacle our industry faced this year was the proposed California water-softening ban, AB 2270. This legislation threatened to unfairly ban water softeners, allowing the government to intrude into private residences to remove private property.
As the bill passed through the various levels of legislation and landed itself on Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's desk to await his final yea or nay, the water treatment industry came together to stare adversity in the face. Members of the industry worked together to form a powerful coalition to oppose the bill and took on an aggressive public-awareness campaign. The industry fought for a cause and hard efforts paid off as Gov. Schwarzenegger vetoed AB 2270 in late September. It is important that our industry maintains this camaraderie because we are sure to face similar legislation in the future.
In March 2008, the Associated Press raised the public's awareness of water quality with a published report on pharmaceuticals found in drinking water supplies. While this was relatively old news for the industry itself, it quickly became one of the biggest public health concerns in the media. The highly publicized article changed the public's awareness of contaminants and the benefits of point-of-entry and point-of-use filtration systems. In response, the Water Quality Association immediately provided fact sheets and guides for consumers online, and NSF established a Task Group to focus solely on standards for this group of chemicals. Expect more studies, testing methods and standards to emerge on this subject in 2009.
As consumers become more knowledgeable of water quality, you as water treatment professionals need to do the same. A recent Water Quality Products' State of the Industry survey revealed that 74.5% of you utilize the Internet as a resource for continuing education. With access to industry and association news, and search engines such as WaterInfoLink.com—a website designed specifically for busy professionals who use the Web to search for industry information but don't have the time to sift through "junk"—all water treatment professionals should be using the Web to stay abreast industry news.
We expect the results of many ongoing studies in 2009, such as the Phoenix Challenge and a WQA study on the benefits of water softeners, so you better be doing your research in order to confidently respond to your customers who are more concerned about the quality of their drinking water than ever before.

The white monovarieties Marco Felluga (white label) are vinified in steel, while the Collio Bianco Molamatta (blend of Pinot Bianco, Tocai Friulano and Ribolla Gialla) and the Collio Pinot Grigio Riserva Mongris (both with the black label) are in part vinified and aged in oak. The red mono varieties age for about 12 months in wooden casks, while the Collio Rosso Carantan (blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon) ages in small oak barrels for nearly two years.
The white mono varieties Russiz Superiore are vinified for 85% in steel and 15% in wood, except for the Collio Bianco Col Disôre (blend of Pinot Bianco, Tocai Friulano, Sauvignon and Ribolla Gialla), the Collio Pinot Bianco Riserva and the Collio Sauvignon Riserva, where the time of wood aging lasts longer. Red wines age in small oak barrels, about a year for the mono varieties and at least two years for the Collio Rosso Riserva degli Orzoni (blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc).
