For the week ending 21 May 2005 / 12 Iyyar 5765
An Army Marches on Its MREs
"Before we had kosher MREs (Meals Ready to Eat) I used to travel with suitcases full of tuna fish and dried salami and kosher beef jerky all sorts of stuff."
This is how a Jewish chaplain at a Marine Corps Air Base in California describes his battle to observe kashrut while serving in the armed forces. Now he, like other Jewish soldiers, has an opportunity to observe the dietary laws with prepackaged rations produced by a Chicago company.
An interesting sideline to this story is that a spinoff of that company produces MREs for soldiers of the Islamic faith to meet their halal requirements.
Last year the Pentagon ordered 27,000 cases of kosher and 308,000 cases of halal MREs.

Last day had great film
It was enlightening to read Lisa Provence's summation of the events of the 18th Virginia Film Festival {News, "Weighing in on the film fest," October 3], but it was regrettable that [her] "batteries were too dead" to cover the events on the last day.
It was a special privilege to have the screening of The Ox-Bow Incident at Scottsville's Victory Hall Theatre, where the recently installed big screen and surround-sound projection equipment were initiated. It was great to reprise Henry Fonda, Dana Andrews, and Anthony Quinn in their youth in a film that was not recognized as a morality classic until long after its 1943 release.
Although he was scheduled for seven other appearances that day, festival director Richard Herskowitz showed up long enough to greet a full house, and in the audience was a former student of Walter VanTilberg Clark, author of the book. After the screening and discussion, everyone enjoyed a gala reception.
We are proud of the fact that our historic Victory Hall Theatre is making a comeback, although as a smaller, more intimate venue offering a variety of entertainment for the community.

text: Microdermabrasion Treatment: Scarring and moderate wrinkles due to sun damage and acne, or correcting age spots and other pigment problems, Crystal Microdermabrasion with Microstar can make a beautiful difference to your skin. Microstar Microdermabrasion is one of the safest and most effective methods available for wrinkle reduction, skin exfoliation, pigment correction, scar reduction, pore reduction, and acne treatment. Our Microdermabrasion skin care equipment also rejuvenates skin by removing the dull, lifeless, sun-damaged epidermis and stimulating the production of new skin cells, collagen and elastin. Our Microdermabrasion skin care equipment uses a hand piece to gently vacuum crystals onto the surface of the skin and resurface the superficial layers of the skin. As the crystals contact the skin, they remove old, dead, and flaking skin cells and exfoliate and polish the skin beneath. Each crystal Microdermabrasion procedure with Microstar skin care equipment takes approximately 30 minutes. Quite often, Microdermabrasion benefits are apparent after only one treatment, although additional treatments are necessary to achieve the desired results. Miicrodermabrasion patients can experience wrinkle reduction, pigment corrections, and other Microdermabrasion benefits on their lunch hours. There is minimal discomfort, pain or redness involved with the treatments.

Local law firm also will represent woman in wrongful death suit
Just a day after she went public about her overwhelming pain — both physical and emotional — Valerie Edwards is now filled with hope. Sobs of joy replaced the 50-year-old burn victim's tears of sadness as she learned Wednesday a local law firm has volunteered to defend her in a wrongful death lawsuit. "I'm just so glad and so, so thankful people are willing to help me," Edwards said. "I really didn't know what I was going to do." Local law firm Husch Blackwell Sanders LLP has stepped forward to represent Edwards in the lawsuit filed by Tanesha West, mother of 11-year-old Anariah West who died in a fire at Edwards' house six months ago. Tanesha West is claiming damages in excess of $50,000, though Edwards and her husband were foster parents of the baby at the time. "We felt she needed some legal representation," said Michael Fricke, an associate at the law firm taking Edwards' case. "My heart goes out to this family, and we will do our best to do anything we can to help." Tanesha West did not return phone calls for comment on Wednesday, and her attorney, Peter LaSorsa, won't discuss the case. "Conceivably, we're going to have a jury pool, and it's not proper to taint that," he said. "I honestly just don't think it's ethical to try this case in public." A fund was also set up Wednesday for Edwards, who is facing nearly $1 million in medical bills after being severely burned on her arms, face and chest in the Dec. 26 fire. She repeatedly entered her burning house in an attempt to save baby Anariah, who was trapped in her crib. Edwards adopted Tanesha West's other three children in 2006, after having cared for them for several years. Edwards said their mother was forced to give up custody because she had not been feeding her children and sometimes also beat them. "I'm all they know," Edwards said of Danaya, 5, Tanaya, 6, and Tyreese, 7. "I got them when they were all still in Pampers. They call me 'mom' because they don't know any different." Edwards said Tanesha West, whose children know her as "Boo," came to Edwards' house occasionally to use the computer. "I wish her well, but I don't plan on seeing her anymore," Edwards said. Days after the December fire, Tanesha West told the Journal Star she didn't blame anyone, especially Edwards, for her baby's death. "If it weren't for Val, I don't know where I would be today," she said then. Erin Wood can be reached at (309) 686-3194 or firstname.lastname@example.com. How to help Donations for the Edwards family may be made in person at any of the three local Redbrand Credit Union offices: 201 E. Lake Ave. in Peoria; 820 Mckinley Ave. in Bartonville; or 2910 Court St. in Pekin's Sunset Shopping Plaza. Donations may also be mailed to Redbrand Credit Union, P.O. Box 4128, Bartonville, IL 61607. Please make checks payable to the Edwards Fund.

Editorial: King closures expose double standard on bycatch
A fisheries management nightmare is playing out across the state caused by weak king salmon returns. The social and economic harms have yet to be calculated, although we have no doubt they are immense.
Sport and subsistence king fisheries have been shut down. The East Side setnetters on the Kenai and Kasilof rivers have been shut down as sockeye surge past the beaches. Commercial chum salmon runs in Western Alaska have been restricted and new fishing gear required — all to avoid killing any king salmon.
Meanwhile, the Gulf of Alaska pollock fleet is about to hit the waters with an allocation of 14,527 king salmon as bycatch for the C and D seasons that begin Aug. 25 and Oct. 1.
The Bering Sea pollock fleet, with until Oct. 31 to catch the rest of a 1.2 million metric ton quota, still has an allocation of 17,741 king salmon remaining as of July 14 with one-third of the harvest to go.
To be clear: this is not meant to be an attack on the pollock industry, which is without question an important part of the Alaska economy. The Journal is not anti-pollock or anti-trawl fleet. What we are is pro-accountability, and in this time of extreme conservation measures nobody can escape their fair share of it.
We find no fault in the fleet advocacy on behalf of its membership, which has entirely legitimate arguments. For instance, ocean conditions could naturally have a greater effect on productivity than interceptions, and it is true that the amount of salmon bycatch is indeed miniscule compared to the 1.2 million metric ton quota of pollock in 2012.
However, consider the "bycatch" of king salmon taken by the East Side setnetters (which really isn't bycatch because it can be commercially sold while pollock fleet takes cannot). In 2011, this group of setnetters caught more than 2 million sockeye compared to 8,356 king salmon, or a rate of 0.4 percent.
Like the Bering Sea pollock fleet, that's a pretty low rate, but they are still shut down because indications are not even the minimum escapement will be met for kings on the Kenai.
King salmon conservation measures cost the setnetters about 500,000 sockeye from their historical split in 2011, or about $4.5 million in dockside value, and the 2012 closure to the East Side setnetters could wind up costing this group $20 million.
The potential harm often cited by the pollock fleet in fighting against bycatch controls certainly stands in stark contrast to the very real economic devastation now being felt by salmon fishermen of all types around the state.
While we don't quarrel with the pollock fleet's right to advance its interests, with its advocacy comes the need to either downplay or deny any impacts of bycatch on Alaska salmon runs. Again, this is their job, but their interests don't always coincide with the public interest.
This is where the federal regulators on the North Pacific Fishery Management Council are supposed to play their role. While drawn by design from industry stakeholders, their job is not to vote a constituency, but to use their knowledge of the fishery to make an informed decision.
It is not an unreasonable observation that the trawl fleets for both pollock and groundfish wield major — and often decisive — clout at the council when it comes to management of salmon, halibut and tanner crab that are prohibited species catches for them.
Nor is it unreasonable to note the glaring contradiction inherent in directed users being barred from even catching and releasing a single king salmon while a prohibited species user group catches them by the thousands.
It may be true that the marine environment is a greater force than the pollock fleet in salmon abundance, but that only makes conservation of the kings that are out there more important.
To argue that bycatch is not significant at a time of low productivity is to simultaneously ignore the disproportionate impact bycatch can have in such a period as well as the conservation burden now being borne by the direct users.
The pollock fleet may argue that it isn't practical or realistic to even consider shutting down their fishery as a conservation measure. A few months ago, the East Side setnetters would have probably said the same thing.

I am developing a cross-platform Java app for OS X, Windows, and Linux. It runs fine on Linux (currently packaged into a .sh file), but now I'm wondering how to distribute it after payment and update it when I make changes.
I'm aware that FOSS is typically distributed in a .rpm and .deb package, which provides a convenient way to update the app as well (in Linux mint, for instance, there is a unified software updater that makes use of these). But I don't know if these would be appropriate for paid software that I don't want users to install without paying for.
I know that paid software on Linux is somewhat rare, but It certainly does exist. So how is paid software typically distributed and updated on Linux?

Watermelon Radish and Armenian Cucumber Salad Is Good Enough to Fight Over
What's this I see? Kids fighting over vegetables? Yes, it's true.
This past Saturday at the Little Italy Mercato in San Diego, two little boys were tussling over cucumbers. Well, not just any cucumbers, Armenian cucumbers, otherwise known as "snake cucumbers" and "snake melons."
"I wanted that one!" said the freckled blonde, stomping his right foot on the ground.
"Well, it's mine!" said the dark-haired one, fiercely, as he handed a curly, striped cucumber as tall as he was to his mother and asked: "Can I have this?"
I sighed. Ahhh! There is nothing so touching as seeing children fight over fresh farmers' market vegetables.
If you've seen an Armenian cucumber, then you understand why they're so alluring. Though a variety of melon, an Armenian cucumber looks and tastes like a regular cucumber, but can grown up to three feet long!
Pair them with electrifying pink watermelon radishes (a mild flavored variety of red radish) and you've got yourself one seriously spirited salad.
Watermelon Radish and Armenian Cucumber Salad
Makes 4 small or 2 large servings
Printable recipe.
1 1/4 cups watermelon radish, sliced thinly into half moons (about 1 large)
1 1/2 cups Armenian, Persian, or regular cucumber, sliced on the diagonal (about 2)
2-3 large basil leaves, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1. Place radishes, cucumbers, and basil in a small bowl.
2. Whisk remaining ingredients in a small bowl and pour over salad. Toss lightly to coat. Serve.

The colours in your sald look lovely. We call the Armenian cucumber "kheera" in India.
A great thirst quencher, it is sold in summer on little carts at almost every street corner. Yummy when eaten raw, dipped in a mixture of salt and chilli powder.
Seeing the watermelon radish for the first time, though.

I've had both of these items in my Suzie's Farm CSA share! And the only thing cuter than kids fighting over farmer's market veggies was when I took their farm tour and two little boys were very sad because the carrots weren't big enough to harvest yet.
The watermelon radishes have a nice zing to them and make any dish look spectacular!

Australian Opal Silver Pendant
- Opal Type: Triplet Opal
- Origin: Lightning Ridge, Walgett Shire, NSW
- Sterling Silver 925 & Cubic Zirconia
- Stone Size: 10*10 mm
The stone name opal comes from the Sanskrit word "upala" for stone, or precious stone.
Triplets consist of three layers:
A black backing as above
A paper-thin slice of opal in the middle
A clear glass, quartz, or plastic capping in the shape of a dome.
Opal is a stone of inspiration which enhances imagination and creativity. It can bring inspiration to projects and to life and Spirit.
Opal has a larger proportion of water in it than most stones and is considered a water stone. This can help ease the effort of handling change in life. Like water rolls over and past rocks and roots in its way, the energy of opal can help continue on your path regardless of obstacles. During times of transformation, this is an invaluable energy to work with and hold close to your heart.
Mentally, opal is said to enhance memory. It is also used to decrease confusion.
The translucence of a crystal opal often gives it a greater clarity and vibrancy of colour than opaque stones.
A black backing which is made of either black industrial glass, black patch (colourless opal), hard plastic, brown ironstone or sometimes vitrolite.
A thin slice of opal (normally crystal opal or white opal). The thickness of the opal in a doublet can vary, however, it is generally thicker than the opal found in a triplet. The edges of the slice of opal are generally rounded off (if there is enough opal) to give the stone a cabochon (domed top).

KDE Ships April Updates, Congratulates GNOME
KDE has made available an update to the 4.6 series of the Desktop and Netbook workspaces, the KDE applications, and the development frameworks. The changelog tells us that this update is worth installing for the fixes in Okular, Dolphin and Kopete, among others. 4.6.2 is a recommended update for everyone running 4.6.1 or earlier versions.

The opensuse one-click installer for 4.6.2 is still called KDE 4.5 Base Installation...
By Boudewijn Rempt at Wed, 2011/04/06 - 5:56pm
Where are the 1-click installers?
Where are those? I'd expect them to be listed in the KDE Repositories or KDE Portal pages, but there is nothing there.
By Jorge Adriano at Wed, 2011/04/06 - 7:25pm
1-click installers
...are the .ymp files in the root of each repo., eg here: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/openSUSE_...
Having seen the state of the filelists in those patterns I want to get someone to review them thoroughly before linking them from the wiki. They were linked from the old openSUSE wiki.
You can list them with "osc meta pattern KDE:Distro:Factory" and view their sources with "osc meta pattern KDE:Distro:Factory " - send updates to me if you want to help out.

Fixed, thanks
Looks like nobody updated those patterns in a while - they are sort of isolated from the distro development workflow.

Why there is no KDE PIM included?
I do always look forward to new KDE release, but this time I am a bit disappointed. After all I read about KDE PIM being expected to be released in KDE 4.6.2, I do not understand why:
This is so confusing I have created an account here just to leave a note about it. Will anyone answer?
By Tomas at Wed, 2011/04/06 - 7:21pm
they are waiting until Duke
they are waiting until Duke Nukem 3D gets released. Have patience!
By trixl at Wed, 2011/04/06 - 7:30pm
lol, good one!
but now i would really appreciate someone from community around KDE PIM to share any info about current state and possible near future of PIM..
By Tomas at Wed, 2011/04/06 - 7:41pm
June 14th!
Are you talking about Duke Nukem Forever (June 14th)? it would be a neat release date for KDE-PIM/Akonadi.
Please, guys. I've been using GIT. I know the current status of KDE-PIM. And it deserves another beta release in its current status.

KDE and Gnome
Hola, just an idea (probably mentioned already a 100 times, but anyway):
Since the Gnomes want to introduce the Zeitgeist framework for organising files and tasks in new ways, wouldn't it be good a opportunity to combine forces on the low level: search engine, tagging, standard dialog (FileOpenSave, print) ... ?
Is there some discussion about this going on between both communities?
By Spitzkopf at Thu, 2011/04/07 - 8:56pm
I'm just wondering if Konsole is going to get fixed anytime soon so we can close tabs again. Typing "exit" 10+ times just for one session is really getting to me.
Thank you.
By Xanadu at Fri, 2011/04/08 - 1:46am
Works for me
When I press ctrl-shift-w, the konsole tab closes.

Ah! Thank you! All these years and I didn't know that shortcut sequence. Geesh...
Thanks, man.

> Ctrl+D doesn't exit your
> Ctrl+D doesn't exit your shell?
Wow. I feel *very* stupid now. Yes, it indeed does. I can't sit here and think of a reason why I've never tried that in Konsole. I've been using KDE since just before 1.0 somewhere (I think it was 0.9.*, but could've been 0.8.*).
Thank you.

I cannot edit text files by konqueror.
I highlighted this issue in bugs.kde.org. But none did anything :(
The konqueror in KDE 4.0.0 was able to edit and save text files just by right clicking and selecting "preview in Embedded Advanced Text Editor".
But this feature was removed in KDE 4.6.1 and 4.6.2 ( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259338 )
Why, why, why ????
The abilty of konqueror to edit text files is one of the main reasons that i use KDE instead of GNOME.

Cry Havoc
Wow. I't been a busy night here ever since yesterday 19:30 GMT, when Mandriva rolled out this infamous update. I saw it pop up in the taskbar, all the main KDE4 libs were there, that was quite impressive, I read the changelog, it was all about security, and unification of some databases, oh and something about RSA certificates not read/written in the right places. Bah. I clicked "update", and entered a world of "rlah" as we say here.
The first visual clue that something went wrong was a weird cloud of pixels surrounding my cursor. Sharp, mean dead pixels like on a faulty monitor. Then the said cloud started to expand to the taskbar region and window titlebars, like a nasty fungus.
I blamed and trial tested everybody but KDE. This looked so much like a HW bug that the fact that the KDE update could have caused this mess did'nt even cross my mind.
I tested every RAM unit, every graphic card that I have at hand (I happen to have quite a lot, Intel ATI Nvidia younameit) and discovered (loong story short) that my current monitor (a 17' Dell LCD) is dead. Hum.
Right now I digged out an old 14' Compaq LCD, I'm logged under LXDE w/o any glitch at all, and whenever I try to lauch KDE4, with whatever HW setup, the mean pixel cloud comes back...
Don't get me wrong, I *love* KDE, yeah, that is love, that must be love, you see ;)
Oh, and while I'm here, I wouldlike to thank every possible contributor in the KDE team. I use you wonderful work ever since the first versions, and I'm impressed by your ambition. Keep up the good work !
By Philippe C. at Sat, 2011/04/09 - 11:03am
I checked now and there are 2 good news.
1. There is a KDE-PIM/Akonadi blocker bug. After all those bugs are gone, KDE-PIM/Akonadi is released.
Grab it while it's hot, and report any loss of data you have converting the data from your old KDE-PIM.

California Joe had een nieuw logo ontwerp nodig en lanceerde daarom een wedstrijd op 99designs.
Een winnaar werd gekozen uit52 ontwerpen ingezonden door14 freelance designers.
The Fueled by Beer Radio Show is looking for an updated, fresh logo to start its 2007 year out with a bang.
Fueled by Beer Radio
"Drink Before You Think" or "Completely Wrong Radio for Completely Wrong People"
Desired Color Scheme:
Black, Orange, Grey, Yellow (Just Pick 2 or 3 of these)
Desired Style:
edgy, irreverent, young, hip, loud, controversial. Try not to be too literal with the design, though. Be sure to keep it clean, simple and easily recognizable (as all logos should be)
Accepted File Formats:
Vector .AI and .EPS + fonts. Winner is expected to provide all files used including font(s).
Were looking to clean our image up a tad and need your help. We need one logo that will capture the feel of our show and the attitudes of the hosts. Were a politically incorrect, un-censored radio show and podcast. Our main demographic is just about anyone over the age of 18 that hangs on the internet for any length of time but with a strong focus on males from 21 to 39. Our current website can be seen here:
It is strongly recommended that you preview this site and listen to at least some of the shows to get a good feel of who we are. Aside from the cash prize, the winner will be promoted heavily on the radio show and Web site (if desired we respect your privacy if you wish to remain anonymous)
We are looking for a 2 or 3 color design that looks great on the Web and on full color printed materials, BUT that we can reduce or simplify as needed to 1 color for printing and still have it be very recognizable/readable.
Logo Design to be used in:
Company Digital Communications: Website and HTML Email
Printed Materials: T-shirts, Business cards, letterhead, envelopes, bumper stickers, etc.
Fonts: Open but please choose a font face that is clean and legible at a variety of sizes.
Other notes: RSS image tags used to identify all podcasts are square. The RSS image (album art) is also used on all podcast directories and shows up in almost all media players. So a logo with the same height and width dimensions (doesnt have to be square circle would work well too) would be ideal rather than a long, horizontal logo.

Cayman Islands police identify Kentucky man as tourist who died while scuba diving
GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands – Cayman Islands police have named the 73-year-old American tourist who died while scuba diving last week.
The Royal Cayman Islands Police Service said Sunday the dead tourist was James Klein of Erlanger, Kentucky.
Police say Klein died Wednesday after losing consciousness while ascending along an underwater cliff. He was given CPR and transported to shore but was declared dead at a clinic.
He was vacationing with his wife in Little Cayman, a tiny island in the British territory that is often ranked among the world's best dive locations.

Original article by Dr. Mao Shin Ni Author of Secrets of Longevity Co-founder of Tao of Wellness, for doctoroz.com
The Power of Chinese Medicine
First things first: What is Chinese medicine? Chinese medicine is a tradition going back 5,000 years that works with nature to maintain wellness and prevent disease.
In Chinese medicine, the emphasis is always on treating the whole entire person – mind, body and spirit – rather than just the body part that isn't functioning well. Additionally, it focuses on treating not only a person's inner life, but also their outer life, including relationships to people and the environment. Disease is a symptom of life out of balance. Chinese doctors use a combination of natural techniques to maintain a healthy balance, including herbal medicine, diet and nutrition, energy exercises like tai chi, and other forms of bodywork, like acupuncture.
Is Chinese Medicine Right for You?
Alternative medicine is enjoying tremendous recognition today, undoubtedly because the remedies are more in tune with Mother Nature, have fewer side effects, and are usually less expensive. In a way, we are coming full circle to the wisdom that we once knew: Herbs, bodywork and healing foods can work for us, just as they did for our ancestors.
Because Chinese medicine falls under the umbrella category of alternative medicine, it too is growing in popularity and becoming more accessible to everyone. Just think, you don't have to go to your nearest urban Chinatown anymore to find these cures.
Chinese medicine is definitely a different way to think about your health. So, how do you know if it is right for you? If you like the idea of taking care of yourself now to prevent disease later, and if you are willing to learn how to work wisely with nature to jumpstart your innate self-healing power, Chinese medicine could play a role in your basic health regime. However, this does not mean that you should self-treat or abandon Western medicine.

It took a face full of ice cream cone and some tussling, but a Stanley couple prevented a would-be carjacker from taking their car Sunday night.
Madison Carrigan and her boyfriend Casey Huckle stopped at a BP gas station in Stanley around 9:30 p.m. Sunday to get some drinks Sunday after visiting Burger King for some ice cream cones.
Carrigan went inside the BP station at 401 N.C. 27 South, leaving Huckle in the passenger side of the 2001 Ford Explorer to finish his vanilla cone.
When Carrigan came back out to the car a man approached her with a box cutter. He told her quietly that he needed to use her car and pointed the knife at her stomach.
�And that�s when I shoved him and started screaming as loud as I could,� Carrigan said.
The man, 44-year-old Michael Anthony Todd Greene, got into the car, not noticing Huckle sitting in the passenger seat.
�I shoved the ice cream cone right in his face, and when I did that, I hit the guy,� Huckle said.
Huckle lunged at Greene.
�They both came tumbling out of the car,� Carrigan said. �I just pulled both of them down out on the ground.�
The two scuffled for a minute or two. Huckle fought to get the box cutter away from Greene. He freed it from Greene�s grasp and gave it to his girlfriend, who threw it out of both of their reach.
�We kept hitting him to keep him down,� Huckle said.
Meanwhile, the clerk inside the BP station called police.
�And he was saying, �Please let me up. I�m done,�� Carrigan said.
Huckle kept Greene down on the ground until police arrived.
Greene continued to fight with police as they tried to arrest him, both Huckle and Carrigan said.
Huckle said he didn�t think twice about getting Greene out of the car and away from his girlfriend. The 2009 East Gaston High graduates didn�t expect their Sunday night to turn into such an adventure.
�I never thought that would happen to me, let alone in Stanley,� Carrigan said.
They�re both glad no one got hurt, and that Greene didn�t succeed in taking their car.
Greene faces charges of attempted robbery with a dangerous weapon, assault with a deadly weapon, being intoxicated and disruptive and resisting a public officer. He was placed in Gaston County Jail under a $100,000 bond.
�That�s all it was, was pure adrenaline for both of us,� Huckle said. �He picked the wrong people.�

HAMPTON, Va. (AP) DeWayne Jackson came off the bench to score 24 points and Morgan State edged Hampton 80-78 Saturday night in Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference action.
Jackson hit 9 of 14 field goal attempts, 3 of 5 from 3-point range, for the Bears (5-9, 2-1). Three teammates also finished in double figures. Anthony Hubbard scored 13 points, Justin Black 12 and Ian Chiles 10.
The Bears led 42-33 at halftime, but Hampton (5-11, 2-1) rallied. The Pirates got double-doubles from Deron Powers (19 points, 10 assists) and Emmanuel Okoroba (15 points, 10 rebounds). Although Hampton was outscored 40-18 in the paint, the Pirates hit 31 of 36 foul shots to get back in it.
They led 76-75 on six straight Okoroba points. But Chiles broke a 77-77 tie on a layup with 1:11 left and Donte Pretlow hit a foul shot with 42 seconds left to make it 80-77.

Amal Clooney is taking up the fight of Iraq's Yazidi community, driven from their homes by ISIS in a campaign the United Nations and U.S. State Department have called genocide, NBC News reported.
The renowned human rights lawyer, who is married to George Clooney, recently told a group of Yazidi refugees in Greece that "the international community should be ashamed that they haven't done more" to help them.
Along with a 23-year-old survivor of three months in ISIS captivity, Clooney is trying to persuade the international community to begin collecting evidence so the members of ISIS who have attacked Yazidis can be prosecuted in international court.
"Victims have all said they actually want their day in court," Clooney told NBC News in an exclusive interview. "It's not going to be easy, but we're working on multiple fronts."

The authors are Intel engineers and authors of the book Weaving High Performance Multi-Core Processor Fabric on which this article is based. Courtesy Intel. All rights reserved.
The Intel QuickPath Interconnect, like many components in a computer system, is comprised of several layers, each of which perform similar logical functions. These four layers -- the physical layer, link layer, routing layer, and protocol layer -- are discussed in detail in this article. Additionally, the performance, reliability, deployment, and design of a system using Intel QuickPath Interconnect are also discussed.
Layers of the Architecture
Many contemporary communication architectures have been influenced by the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) abstract seven-layer model of networking. Intel QPI is no exception and has its own layered model. The functions performed by Intel QPI are logically grouped into four different layers, as in Figure 1.
These layers encapsulate similar functions together. The different layers of the Intel QuickPath Architecture are the:
As we dive into the details of systems, it is important to establish a consistent terminology. Let's take a look at the types of devices that make up such systems.
There is the processing unit that is usually assumed to be connected to the system interconnect through a high performance cache, and appears as a "caching agent" on Intel QPI. A typical system may have one or more caching agents.
The memory controller is responsible for providing access to the random access memory (RAM) in the system used to store programs and data. A system can have one or more memory controllers where each one covers a unique portion of the total system memory address range. For example, if there are four memory controllers in the system, then each could control one fourth of the entire addressable system memory. The addresses controlled by each controller are unique and are not duplicated on another controller. In Intel QPI terminology, a portion of the memory controller performs the "home agent" function for that particular range of memory addresses. A system would have at least one home agent per memory controller, possibly more than one.
Some devices in the system are responsible for connecting to the input/output subsystem. They are referred to as "I/O agents".
One or more devices are responsible for providing access to the code required for booting up the system These are called "firmware agents".
Depending upon the function that a given device is intended to perform, it may contain caching agents, home agents, and/or I/O agents into a single component. In fact multiple agents of each type may exist within a single device. We have been using the term "processor" (or sometimes "socket") to refer to the main processing elements in the system. Processor devices typically will contain at least one home agent, one caching agent, as well as their primary cores and cache structures that perform the actual instruction set execution.
The connection between two Intel QPI devices is termed a link and is composed of a set of unidirectional signals transmitted by one device and received by the other. The individual signals within a link are called lanes. Multiple lanes operating in parallel form the link. A full bidirectional communication pathway between two devices uses two links working in concert with each other. This is sometimes referred to as a "link pair".
- Physical Layer. This layer is responsible for dealing with details of the operation of the signals on a particular link between two agents. This layer manages data transfer on the signal wires, including the electrical levels, timing aspects, and logical issues involved in sending and receiving each bit of information across the parallel lanes.
- Link Layer. This layer is responsible for handling flits of information, as given to and from the link layer and the physical layer, into complete messages. The link layer also manages the flow of these messages and handles errors that may occur during their transfer on that link.
- Routing Layer. This layer is responsible for ensuring that messages are sent to their proper destinations. If a message handed up from the link layer is destined for an agent in another device, this layer forwards it to the proper link to send it on. All messages destined for agents on the local device are passed up to the protocol layer. The implementation details of this layer will vary from one type of device to another. For example, processors that are not required to route traffic from one Intel QPI link on to another may not have a full routing layer.
- Protocol Layer. This layer has multiple functions. The protocol layer manages cache coherence for the interface using the write-back protocol. It also has a set of rules for managing non-coherent messaging. The protocol layer typically connects to the cache coherence state machine in caching agents, and to the home agent logic in memory controllers. The protocol layer also is responsible for system level functions such as interrupts, memory mapped I/O, and locks. One major characteristic of the protocol layer is that it deals with messages across multiple links, involving multiple agents in multiple devices. Lower layers typically deal only with two directly connected devices.
Figure 1 also introduces three terms that identify the granularity of the information being exchanged between the layers. These terms are phits, flits, and packets. These terms, and each layer's functions, will be examined in a little more detail in the following sections.
Note that this layered architecture allows for a great deal of implementation flexibility and future growth, all within the scope of Intel QPI. The modular approach allows for extensions to be accommodated in an incremental manner. Therefore, in later sections of this text when we talk of certain characteristics of Intel QPI, we are pointing out things that usually will reflect current implementations. Those should not be construed as limitations on the overall scope of the Intel QuickPath Architecture. One prime example is the physical layer descriptions. Today a certain set of operational speed or interconnect channel characteristics may be supported. That does not prohibit Intel QPI from evolving into different speeds, communication channels, or even in the types of messages being used.

The new Ken Burns film, The Dust Bowl, headlined an "NEH at the White House" event July 26 as prominent panelists discussed the history of what filmmakers call "the worst man-made ecological disaster in U.S. history." The two-part, four hour film chronicles the monumental dust storms and lethal drought that devastated the Southern Plains states for a decade in the midst of the Great Depression. The National Endowment for the Humanities-funded The Dust Bowl premieres on PBS stations across the nation on November 18 and 19th, 2012.
"Given the drought that today besieges a great swath of the corn, soybean and wheat belt, a sense of contemporary tragedy looms over the historical events chronicled in The Dust Bowl," said NEH Chairman Jim Leach. "Normally, it is positive to suggest that a film is timely. Unfortunately, timeliness in this case has a traumatic dimension."
The preview screening was followed by a panel discussion moderated by Ann Yonkers, the co-director of FRESHFARM Markets, a nonprofit organization that promotes local produce and farmers' markets; Lester Brown, president and senior researcher for Earth Policy Institute, author or coauthor of more than 50 books and a MacArthur Fellow; Timothy Egan, New York Times Opinionator columnist and author of the National Book Award-winning The Worst Hard Times; and Clay Pope, a sixth generation Western Oklahoma farmer who is the executive director of the Oklahoma Association of Conservation Districts.
The dust bowl "story is not over yet," Brown said. "We think it is part of our history, but it is our past, our present, and our future. We don't know if this an isolated problem this year, or something we'll have to contend with in the long term. . . . The policies that will impact these problems are not agriculture policies, but population policies, and energy policies.
"More and more the agricultural system and the climate systems are out of sync. We haven't faced this and we don't know how to face this challenge."
The Dust Bowl is a powerful film that does what filmmaker Ken Burns, producer of The Civil War, Baseball and Jazz, does best. It captures an epic historical event by bringing to life the smaller human stories that make it real, according to Karen Mittelman, director of the NEH Division of Public Programs. The Dust Bowl is co-produced with Dayton Duncan and Julie Dunfey.

OMAHA, Neb. - Trevor Bauer limited TCU to four hits and struck out 13 in eight innings and Blair Dunlap hit a three-run homer Saturday, leading UCLA to a 10-3 victory that sends the Bruins to the College World Series finals and the Horned Frogs
OMAHA, Neb. - Trevor Bauer limited TCU to four hits and struck out 13 in eight innings and Blair Dunlap hit a three-run homer Saturday, leading UCLA to a 10-3 victory that sends the Bruins to the College World Series finals and the Horned Frogs
UCLA (51-15), which hadn't won a game in two previous CWS appearances, will play the winner of Saturday night's South Carolina-Clemson Bracket 2 final in the best-of-three finals starting Monday.
Aside from Bryan Holaday's two home runs for TCU, Bauer (12-3) dominated a lineup that was batting a CWS-best .337. The Frogs finished the year 54-14.
UCLA roughed up TCU starter Kyle Winkler (12-3) for the second straight game. He didn't record an out, hitting leadoff man Beau Amaral and giving up a single to Niko Gallego before Dunlap homered to left to help the Bruins get out to a 5-1 lead.
Dean Espy homered off Kaleb Merck leading off the seventh as the Bruins won going away.
Bauer and the Bruins weathered Omaha's hottest day of the year. The temperature was 94 degrees with a heat index, or feel-like temperature, of 107 degrees by the seventh inning. A thermometer on the field measured the temperature at 109.
Home-plate umpire Jim Jackson and second-base umpire Mark Ditsworth had to be treated for heat issues during the game.
Bauer's 13 strikeouts raised his season total to a nation-leading 165. He has 10 or more strikeouts in eight of his 18 starts and has pitched seven or more innings in 15.
The quirky sophomore in the faded hat turned in his second straight impressive performance. In the Bruins' CWS opener against Florida last Saturday, he recorded 11 strikeouts in seven innings, allowing three runs and six hits in an 11-3 win.
Bauer struck out Jerome Pena to start the game before Holaday hit the first of his two home runs. Holaday finished with four homers in five CWS games and 17 for the season.
Holaday's first homer off Bauer went deep into the left-field bleachers. His second glanced off a fan in the first row, over leaping center fielder Amaral, and dropped back onto the field.
Bauer, with his fastball hitting the low to mid 90s, allowed only one more base runner, and that was on a walk. He struck out the last four batters he faced before Daniel Klein came on to pitch a scoreless ninth.
TCU coach Jim Schlossnagle had a short leash on Winkler. He was hoping to bounce back from rough outing against UCLA on Monday, when he allowed five runs on six hits over 2 2-3 innings in what, until Saturday, was his shortest outing of the season.
But after giving up the home run to Dunlap, Schlossnagle went to Paul Gerrish, who allowed three runs on five hits and two walks in 1 1-3 innings.

On the road: Travels with Che and Alberto
Every young person should take a Great Road Trip, seeing the country or the world with little or no money. It's more difficult and dangerous now than it was in the 1950s when Jack Kerouac was "On the Road," but difficulty and danger were always part of the attraction.
Not everyone who says they took such a trip in their youth really did; many meant to but didn't got up the nerve or never got around to it. That doesn't mean they won't relate to The Motorcycle Diaries, a wonderful film about just such a trip. The main character asks, "How is it possible to feel nostalgia for a world I never knew?" But he does, and so will you.
The Motorcycle Diaries (Diarios de Motocicleto) would be a great film if that main character were Jose Schmoe. That he is Ernesto Guevara de la Serna (Gael Garcia Bernal)– and we know he will become the revered and despised revolutionary Che– makes it work on another level because we see him molded by what he observes into the man he was to become.
That's the thing about those road trips. For the journey to be successful it must be internal as well as external, and Guevara's certainly is. On January 4, 1952, at the age of 23 with one semester of medical school remaining, he leaves his middle-class family in Buenos Aires and hops on the back of a 1939 Norton 500 driven by his friend, 29-year-old Alberto Granado (Rodrigo de la Serna), a biochemist.
Ernesto calls Alberto "Mial," and Alberto calls him "Fuser." They plan to travel 8000 kilometers in four months, going through Chile and Peru to Venezuela. In Peru they will visit a leper colony, leprosy being Guevara's specialty in med school.
Of course these horny twentysomethings are looking to have some fun on the road too, and they do; but as their money runs out and their transportation dies, they leave the middle-class behind and spend more time among indigenous people, many of them homeless because their land has been taken from them.
Visiting Machu Picchu and then Lima, Ernesto wonders what the continent would look like if the Spaniards hadn't conquered the Incas. In a climactic speech he talks about uniting Latin America: the people are one and the land should be too.
Alberto, a champion BSer, uses their medical credentials, somewhat exaggerated, to score food, lodging, and sex. Ernesto, who's straight-arrow honest, uses his medical knowledge to help people. He displays such compassion that this film should be required viewing in medical schools so they'll turn out more health care professionals instead of health care profe$$ionals.
Two months into the trip, our heroes are already one month behind schedule, and that's while the bike is still running. But they ultimately go everywhere and do everything they had planned. In Lima a doctor they had contacted in advance gives them "clothes, food, money, and ideas" and sends them on to the San Pablo leper colony, where "the (Amazon) river segregates the ill from the healthy."
Filmed in four countries, The Motorcycle Diaries has some travelogue aspects, but it also lets us see poverty and injustice through and in Guevara's eyes. We hear his thoughts only once in an entry in the journal of the title, but several more times because he writes to his mama tambien.
Brazilian Director Walter Salles (Central Station), working in Spanish, combines the film's many aspects seamlessly: drama and comedy, politics and medicine, landscape and mindscape, poetry and prose.
As for the nickname, two Chilean women they flirt with know the men are from Argentina because Argentineans always say "Che."
The next time you get the urge for a road trip, instead save on gas by heading to the nearest theater showing The Motorcycle Diaries. Chances are your own trip wouldn't turn out nearly as well.

This Brick and Paver program allows graduates and friends of West Point the opportunity to etch a meaningful inscription on a brick or paver that will be placed on the historical grounds surrounding the James K. Herbert Alumni Center. These paths serve as a permanent, elegant, and recognizable remembrance to visitors entering the building from Mills Road and surrounding areas.
Brick or Paver?
Desktop replicas of your brick are offered for an additional donation of $250. Desktop replicas of your paver are offered for an additional donation of $400.
(Or you can fill out this order form and mail to WPAOG - Brick & Paver, 698 Mills Road, West Point, NY 10996)
For more information contact firstname.lastname@example.com or 800.232.4723 ext 1605.
Currently, all Class sections, with the exception of the current graduating class, are limited; however, bricks are still available in the "Black Knight" section and bricks are installed in the Class year sections. You may make a request as to where your paver is placed, but WPAOG makes the final determination of the paver placement.
Crests and other graphics can also be inscribed on granite pavers for an additional fee. All inscriptions must be in compliance with WPAOG's Brick and Paver Policy.
There are two installations a year and they are planned in time for the graduation and fall reunions. Orders placed between March 2nd and July 1st will be installed in the Fall before the first home football game. Orders placed between July 2nd and March 1st will be installed in the Spring before graduation. The order and full payment must be received by the deadline to be included in the installation.

» Over the past twelve years, the total route mileage of tramways systems in France has multiplied by five — at a cost reasonable even for small cities.
Last weekend, the city of Brest, on the far western coast of France, opened its new tramway, a 14.3-km (8.9-mile) line that connects the center city to the west and northeast. 50,000 daily riders are expected in a city of about 140,000 inhabitants. This Friday, Orléans, an even smaller city in central France, will open its second, 11.3-km tramway line. The first already attracts about 40,000 daily users.
These two cities are far from alone in France. Across the country, cities large and small have adopted the construction of modern tramways* to bring their citizens a modern form of public transportation that has led to improved circulation, more convenient networks, and renovated downtowns. Like American streetcars, these tramways operate at

Tuesday, April 19
Good morning, TexMessagers! Are you ready to rumble (again) over immigration reform?
President Obama opened the White House yesterday to a closed-door meeting with a wide variety of so-called "stakeholders" in the immigration debate. The invitees ranged from local elected officials (San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro), law enforcement officials, business leaders and immigration-rights activists.
Guess who wasn't invited? Federal lawmakers, including two Texans who are key players in any immigration legislation: Sen. John Cornyn, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Lamar Smith, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.
If we judge by Smith's reaction to our colleague Gary Martin, we get the sense that no immigration legislation is going to emerge from the San Antonio Republican's committee before the 2012 presidential election. Smith says Republicans will oppose plans that offer illegal immigrants a path to citizenship, which they call an "amnesty."
"Any form of amnesty will only encourage more illegal immigration," Smith declared.
For more coverage of the meeting — including an exclusive interview with Mayor Castro — check back on Texas on the Potomac after 9 a.m. CDT.
Texas Tips
Every morning, we offer Texas news you may not have heard and insights from the Washington bureau staff.
★ RON PAUL TOPS READER POLL. Rep. Ron Paul ranks as the 14th most influential person in the world according to the 2011 TIME 100 Reader Poll. Although Paul didn't clinch the number one spot, which was taken by South Korean pop superstar Rain, he did come in ahead of political powerhouses including President Obama, Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., Sarah Palin and Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. View the full results of the poll>>>

★ TEXAN PRAYS WITH OBAMA. Texas-based evangelist Bishop T.D. Jakes had a prominent seat at President Obama's second annual Easter prayer breakfast. Jakes sat next to Obama as the president discussed how his faith helps keep everything "in perspective." CNN>>>
★ DOGGETT ON THE DEFENSE. After losing the battle over federal education funds for Texas, Rep. Lloyd Doggett said members of the GOP are still out to get him, but in a different way. At a press conference earlier this week Doggett claimed some of his GOP colleagues are trying to oust him through the congressional redistricting process that has just begun. Read more from the Austin American-Statesman>>>
★ NO REST FOR THE WEARY. As Congress is in the middle of a two week recess some legislators are taking time off away from the public eye but not Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee. The representative for the 18th District had quite a busy day on Tuesday. First, Jackson Lee attended the Child Protective Services Annual BEAR (Be A Resource) the Load Luncheon in Houston. Then, she went to the National Organization for the Professional Advancement of Black Chemists and Chemical Engineers 38th Annual Technical Conference. Finally, Jackson Lee ended the day discussing the impact of budget decisions at the Greater Heights Super Neighborhood Council.
★ LAURA BUSH DEFACED BY VANDAL. A billboard featuring Laura Bush and advertising her upcoming visit to Richmond, Ky. had to be replaced yesterday after a swastika was found spray painted on it. Bush is scheduled to visit Richmond's St. Mark Catholic Church in May for an event promoting literacy. "To see something of this nature take place, it's repulsive to be honest with you, it's sad, it's disgusting," Father Jim Sichko said. Read more>>>
★ RAND'S RUNNING AGAIN — for Senate that is. In an unusual move, Sen. Rand Paul, son of Rep. Ron Paul, filed for reelection for the 2016 Senate race. According to Politico, this move signals he won't be running for President, an idea he had previously entertained. That still leaves the door open for Ron to make a Presidential bid in 2012. More from Politico>>>
★ POE AND OLSON DEMAND ANSWERS ON SHUTTLE SNUB. Reps. Ted Poe and Pete Olson are blaming partisan politics and demanding answers about why Houston was overlooked for a space shuttle. "Houston doesn't seek an orbiter because it wants to add a relic to a museum to highlight a marvel of modern engineering. It is more profound than that. To Houston and the men and women of Mission Control, who dedicated their careers to human space flight; it represents a life's work," write the representatives. Read more on CNN>>>

Reader Comment of the Day
Responding to Molly Harbarger's article about a study that found illegal immigrants add about $1.6 billion to the economy, WriterDude wrote:
Another study shows that illegals cost California about 10 billion. If the same ratio is true for Texas, then illegals in Texas cost about $6 billion.
Generally, they are making up about 30% of their expense in taxes. However, there are other advantages to having cheap labor; building costs are cheaper, some services are cheaper, and food is cheaper. But, jobs are lost to illegals that could be had by US citizens. So, as you see, it is a trade-off of several complicated factors, and not just a clear-cut problem.

You needn't listen to the devil's music to enjoy Edifier's latest Spinnaker speaker system, even if the horn-shaped structures might suggest otherwise. Oh, and they're available in a red finish, just to add to their devilish charms.
Undoubtedly striking to look at, can these tri-amped, 42cm tall speakers deliver to the ears as much as they do to the eyes?
We suspect there's going to be a love/hate response to the Spinnaker's looks. The pointy-topped, bent-cone-like structures might look as though they're crying out for your eyes' attention, but there's logic to the design too.
As the tweeters sit towards the top of the speakers, the higher frequencies won't be delivered in the same flat, face-on direction as the mid-range and bass components. It helps to offer separation that'll be much needed if the Spinnaker system is placed low to the ground.
The black finish model we were given for our review sits on a silver-like base with the Edifier brand name to the rear. The cloth-clad speakers are otherwise rather inconspicuous. They're still going to grab the attention of anyone who pops by your house, but we think they'll look rather apt in a trendy, minimalist pad.
Just over half way up each speaker is a band that separates the design, giving it a little more focus.
On the top of the mains-plugged speaker is a small light that shows the system is switched on, which shifts from green to blue when Bluetooth is activated.
Cones & Connections
In addition to a 19mm silk dome tweeter, each speaker horn has a 70mm cone to handle the mid-range and a 116mm unit to deal with the bass. They're loud too, with enough clout to fill a decent-sized room.
Flip the mains-powered speaker over and there are a bunch of different wired connections: speaker out to marry up to the passive speaker; aux out/optical in (both an optical and 3.5mm cable are provided); a subwoofer out; and a mini-USB connection should the unit require any software updates.
One of the unit's main selling points, however, is its Bluetooth compatibility. It's possible to sync up a computer, smartphone or most EDR 2.1+ compatible devices.
We're pleased that the necessary cables are included in the box, but our main gripe for the speaker-to-speaker connection is the length of the cable. As some of the cable is lost under the speaker in order for the units to sit flat, the distance between the two maxes out at around 140cms. Might sound like far enough, but we prefer a bit of extra distance - even if that would mean including two different cable lengths in the box. Seems only fair for £349.
There's also a rather unconventional remote that looks almost like a paper weight. That might sound odd, but it means it can be left on a table without looking as unsightly as a button-riddled controller or the like. The aluminium-shelled Edifier RC308 remote has a simple twist mechanism to turn the volume up or down, coupled with a red light at the base that shows only when in use to confirm operations. It's a shame the remote isn't a bit heavier though, as it can't really be twisted with one hand without spinning around entirely.
Sound Quality
Pocket-lint has had the Spinnaker system set up for a couple of weeks, where we've tested out all manner of sound through optical, auxiliary and Bluetooth connections.
Overall we're impressed: the sound covers a decent range, the system isn't bass heavy, yet there's enough downward kick for a full and rich listening experience.
The inclusion of a subwoofer output will complete the experience if you're a fan of the ultra-low frequency stuff.
There were some occasional blips: The mid-section can sound a little muddy at times, and there's the occasional "crunch", but we put this down, on most occasions, to the Bluetooth connection and, therefore, this is more the fault of the transmitting device than the receiving speakers.
When running music using the provided optical cable we were far more satisfied. DJ Shadow's What Does Your Soul Look Like - almost like future jazz meets hip hop - bounced along with gusto. Compressed drums hit in all the right places, while samples sat well within the stereo mix.
A mixture of orchestral, current pop - a term used loosely in this context - and more demanding underground dance put the Spinnakers through their paces with little issue.
But we didn't stop there. There was no avoiding playing at least one Black Sabbath track on these devil horns, right? Fan or not, that didn't disappoint either.
Connect the speakers directly to a TV and they do suffer from some lag, but we doubt this will be their primary use. The Bluetooth also has a delay from source to output, but for music alone it's so slight that it won't be a problem at all.
If the Edifier Spinnaker has grabbed your attention thanks to its striking looks then you needn't fear poor sound quality.
The Spinnaker system we've been testing for a couple of weeks isn't completely perfect on the sound front, but avoid Bluetooth use and it gives decent all-round performance.
Our main qualms are just minor quibbles: the length of the speaker cable to the passive speaker could be longer, the occasional "crunch" depending on what you're listening to, and the provided remote control could be weightier for one-handed use. And the projected £349 price tag isn't tiny, but it's not major when compared to some of the well-established competitors out there.
Otherwise these devilishly designed speakers are just as fiery when it comes to audio. A stand-out design with pumping audio.

It happens – people make the wrong call. When it happens again, however, it means we did not learn anything.
There was no reason for the Giants' game with the Pittsburgh Steelers to be played in New Jersey this Sunday. Roger Goodell, the current NFL commissioner, feels that the league needs to go on playing in the Garden State as a way to show that the "Greatest Show on Turf" must go on.
As someone who spent the better part of 12 years in television and often participated in live events, I understand the difficulty of moving all of that hardware (cameras, lights, electrical uplink equipment, etc.) to some place else on short notice.
But there are times when we need to show respect for the people in the real world. The families that are without power, without shelter, without food, are not going to get inspiration from a mega-stadium filled with electricity and fanfare.
Goodell could have kept the game on schedule by moving it, since the storm is generally a regional situation. Are there any towns between East Rutherford and Pittsburgh that are on hard economic times that could use a surprise NFL game on their turf?
This was a chance for corporate America - and professional sports is the epitome of corporate America - to show some creativity. Many saw the movie Mystery, Alaska, where the New York Rangers play in a small town team in Alaska. Is it so far-fetched?
In the 369 miles between East Rutherford and Pittsburgh there is an unemployment level that is depressing. If you think your utility companies forgot you, talk to the lost families of coal country.
The direct route between both teams' cities cuts right across Allentown and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, where they have been in a recession for a lot longer than most of us. Why not bring an NFL game to one of their college fields and give them the Greatest Show on Turf?
Why not share the wealth a little? What football fans are going to really enjoy being at this game at MetLife Stadium knowing what is going on in neighboring towns anyway?
It is true that many of the fans at MetLife Stadium are season ticket holders and a cancelation could be messy, but this is a unique circumstance. Professional football has always tried to sell itself as being more appealing to the regular guy. So much for that, I guess.
It's a business, folks, please take your mini-barbeques with you when you leave the stadium.
A few of those season ticket holders are residents of Broad Channel, Queens, which is under water. If the league wants to show respect to the victims – and its season ticket holders – it could have moved the game and made it up to those with tickets later on.
Nobody would have faulted Goodell for the doing the right thing. He made the wrong call by allowing this game to be played on Sunday night in New Jersey.
And this was Goodell's call, not Governor Chris Christie's call. He had the chance to be creative, but he was not. He had the chance to tip his hat to those who are without homes, and he did not. He had the chance to re-create one of the biggest blunders in NFL front office history, and he may have done it.

I think the game we're all talking about it Bioshock Infinite JRPGs are a whole other problem because it makes American focus groups wonder why you can't shoot anything.
That makes me dislike the marketing folks, nog men in general. And the focus groups, maybe. I wonder what's happening in those heads..."So, bad-ass dude or hot chick... If I say hot chick, they might think I'm gay for liking girls' games. Better pick the dude. Yeah, I should totally prefer looking at guys, that's the manly thing to do!"
Well, I mean, what's the reason women want girls on the cover? Isn't it for them to have a character to relate to, thus making companies put what would appeal to their target audience? That's why Mass Effect 3 had both female and male Shepards on the cover, because BioWare knew it was a series with an even split in terms of fan gender.
Let's say I'm 9 years old, should to relate to these girls?
Elizabeth plays a huge role in Bioshock Infinity, you could say she is as important as Booker. Those two should have shared the spotlight if you ask me.
(It's not sexist if you put jiggle physics on the male characters as well :>)
If you can, then I am deeply sorry about your multiple physical deformities :*(
That may be true but I mean LOOK AT THIS GLORIOUS DILF ACTION. And please note that his crotch is like the most well-lit area on that picture.

In an effort to prevent large blocks of ice in the Kankakee River from damaging bridges and personal property, the Will County Emergency Management Agency began siphoning warm water from the Dresden Station cooling pond into the river today.
MORRIS, Ill. (Feb. 5, 2009) - In an effort to prevent large blocks of ice in the Kankakee River from damaging bridges and personal property, the Will County Emergency Management Agency began siphoning warm water from the Dresden Station cooling pond into the river today.
According to Will County Emergency Management Director Harold Damron, recent cold temperatures have caused ice in several areas of the river to reach about eight inches in thickness. With warmer temperatures predicted over the coming weekend, he is concerned that large sheets of ice may break apart and float. "The warm water from Dresden's pond helps to maintain the river's natural flow, which lessens the likelihood of damage as the ice makes its way downstream," Damron said.
He added that ice jams can cause flooding because they act as dams, preventing melting snow that enters the river from flowing downstream. "We appreciate Dresden's cooperation in helping us minimize the severity of icing on the river."
The 70-degree F water is siphoned from the cooling pond through a trio of 3-foot diameter pipes located at the northeastern corner of the pond. They run from the bottom of the pond, over the dike, under Cottage Road and into the Kankakee River. Although the siphon lines are located on Dresden Station property, they are operated by the Will County Emergency Management Agency.
"Winters in northern Illinois are hard enough, without having to cope with ice jams and flooding," said Dave Wozniak, Dresden site vice president. "If the warm water in our cooling pond can provide some relief for our neighbors, we're more than glad to help."
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency allows the siphon lines to be operated twice a season for 14-day intervals each. This is the second time this year that they are being placed in service. The Emergency Management Agency siphoned warm water to the river during the frigid weather from Jan. 7 - 21.
Dresden Generating Station is approximately 60 miles southwest of Chicago. The station's two operating units can produce more than 1,700 megawatts net of electricity per hour. Dresden Unit 1, which began commercial operation in 1960 and was retired in 1978, has been designated a Nuclear Historic Landmark by the American Nuclear Society.
