Members of St. Canera Catholic Church in Neosho gathered Wednesday evening to break ground for and bless the site of a new parish hall.
Members of St. Canera Catholic Church in Neosho gathered Wednesday evening to break ground for and bless the site of a new parish hall.
The hall has been a long time coming, according to Father Hank Grodecki.
"They've been wanting to do something for about the last 20 years," Grodecki said. "We finally had a building campaign last fall and that's been successful enough that we're able to start the building now with the pledges we've received already."
The church, located at the corner of Hill and Wood streets, is made up of about 340 families.
Many of the church members gathered Wednesday evening, immediately following the 7 p.m. mass, to attend the blessing and groundbreaking.
Bishop James V. Johnston, of Springfield-Cape Girardeau, presided over the blessing.
"It will serve as a parish center, so it will be a parish hall, kitchen, restrooms, classrooms for Sunday school and a courtyard," Grodecki said.
Rick Holden, a member of the church's building committee and co-chair of the fundraising campaign, said Wednesday was an exciting day for the St. Canera parishioners.
"It brings the whole parish together for a purpose and we see that in our future of our younger kids and parishioners that are coming in," Holden said. "It gives us a newer facility and it brings a lot of things that are currently scattered around the property up here into one entity."
The parish hall will be constructed by Construction Services Group, of Neosho, with design performed by Butler, Rosenbury and Partners architectural firm, of Springfield.
Groundbreaking was performed by Grodecki, Johnston, Holden, designer Daniel Hancock, Carter Marion of CSG, and Belen Mejia, who represented the children of the church.
Holden said while the new parish hall had been a goal of the congregation for years, the project became serious last fall, when the fundraising campaign began.
"We had to raise half of it before we could break ground," Holden said. "The quote for the fundraising was about $680,000."
Holden said the addition will go on the south side of the church, and will measure approximately 4,700-square-feet.
He said the exterior of the building will be a siding that compliments the marble on the front of the church.
Holden said the new facility will offer more space and will be easier for some church members to access.
"We have a facility downstairs in the basement, and as the parishioners age and our projects move forward, we were needing better facilities," Holden said. "We wanted a bigger, multi-purpose area for gathering. We wanted a better entrance into the church itself. Also, we wanted to bring everything to ground level to aid our elderly parishioners."
The new parish hall is expected to be complete in about seven months.

That will be a perfect start. be arrested be club corruption before the club even exists. One of these days you will be moving to Jeonbuk
There are two routes to success in football. One is being good. The other is being lucky. You need both to win a championship. But you need only one to win a match.

I think you need some of us to come in as foreign 'consultants'. Nobody knows more about Korean football than us. I'm yours for a pack of Cass!

It will be the traditional illegal Korean relationship.. Maybe I can be arrested as the core of 'Eungbong FC Scandal' like Choi Soon-sil.
I bet all of those 300 clubs already have team buses sorted out... they must not think you guys are serious without one.

What's the easiest way for me to retrieve a list of stored procedures that a named Windows NT login account owns and that Enterprise Manager displays? I want to wrap code around the list, run the code in Query Analyzer, then change the object owner to dbo. Would translating an NT login account to the SID and joining sysxlogins to the sysobjects or sysdatabases system table help?
Master.dbo.sysxlogins exposes the SID-to-name mapping for valid logins. So, you can easily write a join query that uses sysxlogins to retrieve login names, then find matching objects such as stored procedures in a database.

Al Frappacino
Race: Uncertain
Faction: Transylvito
Class: Warlord
Special: Leadership
Proposed Canon
"Big" Al Frappacino is a Transylvitian Warlord. He acts as regent for the city of Aqua Velva. He keeps fish as pets.
Al's race is not certain. Al is described as a "man" with a tan in Summer Update 13, but has vampire ears in the pictures of 13 and 14. He does not fly and is fat (Don_King is also fat, so this is not an indicator).
- He may be a vampire too fat to fly, and Jillian may call any humanoid unit a "man".
- He may be a vampire, and Jillian was simply calling him a "man" in reference to his gender, as opposed to his race.
- He may be a man that wears something on his ears to look more like his vampire friends.
- He may be a comedic character created with Rob's dramatic license simply to make us laugh.
- He may be a half vampire making reference to his last name.
Real World References
"Al Frappacino's" name is a reference to American actor Al Pacino, who is well known for playing mobsters like Michael Corleone in The Godfather films.[1] A "frappuccino" is also the name of a blended coffee drink sold by Starbucks, though it is spelled slightly differently than Al's last name.[2]
Al's attire, which consists of a toga, gold garland and sandals, is reminiscent of a Real World Roman patrician.
In Summer Update 13, Al calls himself "a weird guy."

BOSTON — There's no way the Bruins get past Tampa Bay in tonight's Game 7 without a contribution from their moribund power play.
Well, we've said that throughout the 2011 Stanley Cup Final, and yet Boston has reached this final game of the Eastern Conference Final with a power play that has clicked just 8.2 percent (5-for-61) in 17 games.
With a solid penalty kill, excellent 5-on-5 play and great goaltending, the Bruins might be able to get it done against the Lightning. But that doesn't mean their going to chalk up their power play as a lost cause without trying tonight at the TD Garden.
"You do [take it to heart], absolutely. It's an important piece of the puzzle and we've got an opportunity in one game tonight to try and erase all the junk that we've done, really, in the last three or four months," said forward Mark Recchi after his team's morning skate. "So if we can go build momentum with it, then it helps. If it kills your momentum then it obviously hurts you.
"We've had some times where the power play's been good and we've just kept momentum in the game. There's been some times where it's drained some momentum. And we've got to make sure you make it on the positive side. Even if you don't score, it's how well you do it. If you get them hemmed in, that's going to happen sometimes."
The newest wrinkle in the Bruins' power-play alignment features 6-foot-9 defenseman Zdeno Chara in front of the net screening the goalie and battling for loose pucks. Tampa Bay defenseman Eric Brewer — no slouch himself at 6-3 — spoke this morning about not being able to move Chara from the front so, "you just have to stay close to him."
But, of course, the net-front presence only pays off when there's a puck in the vicinity — an issue the Bruins haven't been able to solve regardless of who's at the points. The one goal Boston scored on the man-advantage with Chara in front came on a pass from Nathan Horton from the side wall to David Krejci in front.
"Well, it's only an advantage if we get pucks to the net. That's the bottom line here," said Julien, who began employing Chara in front late in Game 5. "If you are going to put him in front, you might as well get some pucks to the net and find ways to do that. So that's part of our process is to move the puck around and create some shots."
With just 20 shots on net total in each of the last two games, the Bruins haven't been putting enough pucks to the net at even strength or up a man. That might be a sign they need Chara more on the back end and could use Milan Lucic or Nathan Horton to play the role of crease-top chaos-maker.
To win Game 7, the Bruins might have to try every configuration known to man. And start shooting from almost anywhere and everywhere.

Another View: Turn around, Scott Brown; Sen. Shaheen has us covered
December 29. 2013 8:24PM
The people of New Hampshire are known as independently minded voters. We don't like it when others try to tell us what to think, and we certainly do not take kindly to outsiders who waltz into our state with the belief that they are better suited to represent us than we are to represent ourselves.
With the news that Scott Brown has moved to New Hampshire with an eye toward challenging Jeanne Shaheen for her seat in the U.S. Senate, I am struck by the fact that he cannot effectively represent us because he is not one of us.
Don't let the fact that he owns a vacation home in Rye fool you; Scott Brown is not one of us. He thinks that because the people of Massachusetts gave him his walking papers, his next best shot at resurrecting his political career is to cross into our state and occupy one of our seats in the U.S. Senate. I urge you to stand with me and tell Scott Brown that those seats are reserved for the talented people of New Hampshire; those who live and breathe the Granite State and have an intimate knowledge of the wants and needs of its people.
Aside from the fact that Scott Brown is ill equipped to represent the people of New Hampshire, I firmly believe that we already have the right person serving us in Washington. Jeanne Shaheen has lived in New Hampshire for 40 years, is a former educator and small-business owner, and raised her children in the Granite State. She knows what our needs are because she is one of us. She served in our state Legislature and was our governor during some of the most prosperous times our state has seen in recent years.
She has a strong record on education, which is one of the most important and essential roles that government plays in aiding its citizens. Further, she is well respected by her colleagues in the Senate, serves on the incredibly influential Appropriations Committee, and is in a position to get things accomplished in Washington, D.C. She also serves on the Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee, and she has pushed legislation aimed to help small businesses grow, prosper and fuel our economy.
Even if you don't agree with me about the bona fides of Sen. Shaheen, I expect that the vast majority of you will agree that New Hampshire deserves, and needs, to be represented by our own people — people who have lived in our community, people who understand our struggles and concerns because they share them. What New Hampshire does not need is a failed Massachusetts politician who crosses over the border in hope that he can use us to resurrect his political career.
Mr. Brown, New Hampshire is not here to boost your personal aspirations, and we are more than capable of representing ourselves. I suggest that you hop back into that famous truck of yours and take the nearest route back to I-95 South. Feel free to do some tax-free shopping on your way out of town.

Leominster girl collects toys for foster kids
LEOMINSTER, Mass. (AP) — Noriah Still held a stuffed duck with an orange beak that looked a little worn and old, but she turned it in her hands casually, with the familiarity of an old friend.
"I've had him forever," she said.
Noriah, 10, has more than 1,200 stuffed animals, but the duck holds a special place in her heart.
A worker at the state Department of Children and Families gave her the toy to comfort her while she was in foster care, waiting to meet her prospective parents, Mike and Rina Still.
"She had nothing, so her case worker gave her a little something to hang onto before she met us," Mike Still said.
That was about five years ago, and as Noriah has grown, the Stills have talked to her about the importance of charitable work.
Noriah has a forever family now but still feels a kinship to the children in foster care — and a little memory of the loneliness.
Children can travel from foster home to foster home over the course of a month.
So when Noriah learned that as a fifth-grader at Fall Brook Elementary, there is a requirement for community service, she hit on the idea of collecting stuffed toys for children in foster care.
Noriah put out the word to friends and family about a month ago, asking for used stuffed toy bears, but it quickly morphed into any toy animal.
"I set up an account on Facebook saying, 'We're collecting stuffed animals for foster kids,'" Noriah said.
Mike Still also collected the toys at Ron Bouchard's in Lancaster, where he works part time in the IT department when he's not working as a vocational tutor at the Center for Technical Education innovation in Leominster.
Rina Still collected at Monster.com in Maynard, where she works.
"We got a lot more than we ever expected to," Mike Still said. "We expected people to give us one or two, and one lady gave us over 400 bears."
Many of the toys are new, but Noriah also collected used toys, so she spent a recent weekend cleaning them and spraying them down with Febreze.
Mike Still has a Dodge 2500 pickup truck and an 18-foot trailer, but even they are not enough to transport all the toys, so the Department of Children and Families has agreed to pick up the toys so they can distribute them from its Worcester offices.
DCF spokeswoman Cayenne Isaksen could not immediately confirm the donation of toys but was complimentary of Noriah's proposal.
"Obviously, the department is grateful of the community and of anybody working to support our kids," Isaksen said. "Donations like this ... help augment our DCF Kids Fund."
The fund is used to buy foster children such items as backpacks and personal items as well as send them to camp, get tutoring or even attend an occasional dance class.

Atheroclerosis, or hardening of the arteries, is caused by the accumulation of a fatty substance called plaque on the inside of the walls of the arteries. This is a condition that affects up to 35% of Americans. Atherosclerosis can cause the narrowing of any of the arteries throughout the body, decreasing blood supply to a particular limb or organ.
Narrowing of the arteries decreases the blood supply to the muscles and tissues in the surrounding area, resulting in poor circulation. Lower extremity arterial occlusive disease (occurring in the legs and feet) is often present in conjunction with other conditions, such as carotid artery disease and heart disease.
Symptoms depend on the organ affected, severity of disease and the suddenness of the block. The symptoms of lower extremity arterial occlusive disease include:
Pain in the calves or thighs while walking is the most common symptom of lower extremity occlusive disease. Some people may also experience numbness, weakness, or cold in the feet or legs. As the disease progresses, pain may also be felt at rest in the toes and ulcers may develop. These ulcers can turn gangrenous if untreated.
In order to diagnose the severity of the condition, the patient's blood pressure is taken in the arm and compared to the blood pressure measurement taken in the ankle. The result of this test, called the ankle brachial index (ABI) will evaluate the extent to which the blood supply is limited in the leg.
Imaging tests may also be necessary to determine the location and the extent of the arterial narrowing (stenosis) in the legs. These tests may include angiography or Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA).
If symptoms are mild to moderate, the disease can be well managed by lifestyle changes such as smoking cessation, regular exercise, and management of related medical conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels. Exercise can help tremendously in relieving symptoms. Blood-thinning drugs or other kinds of medication may also be prescribed.
In some cases, a procedure may be required to relieve the narrowing in the artery and to restore blood flow to the leg. The arterial stenosis may be treated using minimally invasive procedures such as angioplasty and stenting to improve blood supply to the affected extremity.
However, if the disease is advanced, or if it occurs in an artery that is difficult to reach with a catheter, arterial bypass surgery may be necessary in order to restore blood flow.
For more information about the treatment of arterial occlusive disease, call LifeBridge Health at 410-601-WELL (9355).

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Not many eulogies end with those attending taking shots of tequila, but then again, not many people lived a life like Harry Devert did.
Harry Devert, a 32-year-old Pelham native who went missing in Mexico in January and was found dead in July, had his life celebrated at Chester Park in Pelham on Saturday with friends and family celebrating a man who lived a thousand lifetimes.
His mother, Ann, who lives in New Rochelle, told a story about visiting the Bronx Zoo in which Harry kept running on the grass. Ann asked Harry if he saw the sign saying Keep Off The Grass.
"He said 'It says 'Keep off the grass, but Harry can go on,' " Ann said. "That shows you that Harry was Harry at a young age."
Ann said Saturday was about celebrating Harry's life.
"It was a promise fulfilled," Ann said. "Everyone here made Harry feel rich. How great is that? Harry lived everyday like it was his last best day. He went all out. His life was complete. I am so proud of him."
Ann said she and her husband George had trouble keeping up with him.
"He was happy and healthy and he stayed that way," Ann said. "A parent does not get much luckier than that. I consider myself the luckiest mom on the face of the earth."
The world was Harry's oyster and Ann said he loved the joy of discovery.
"He celebrated differences and he celebrated unity," Ann said. "Harry was never bored. He found it easy to make friends. He was a happy person. Happiness is contagious. Have fun, live your life. Love your life. Everything is a miracle."
Friends came up, told stories about Harry's love for life and did a shot of tequila.
"You lived out your dream, my brother," Joe Kraljev said. "Not many people can say that. He was an awesome wingman."
Devert went missing on Jan. 25 while traveling in Mexico by motorcycle on his way to Brazil for the World Cup. Mexican authorities found remains in two plastic bags near a motorcycle with an identification number matching that of Devert on July 13.

Monarcha is a serifed type family, with a strong influence of the baroque style, for extended texts. Its roman versions are slightly skewed, in the sense of reading, and its italics have unusual calligraphic features. Moreover, the contrast between thick and thin strokes is relatively smaller than in conventional serif fonts. These characteristics, coupled with its rounded shapes, give Monarcha a delicious fluidity and texture.
Monarcha innovates and brings an exclusive OpenType feature to convert Arabic to Roman numerals up to 3999. It also has several other professional features - small caps, fractions, old style-, lining-, tabular numbers, scientific superior/inferior figures, stylistic sets and more than 40 different ligatures (standard + discretionary).
The family consists of 8 styles, 4 weights - Book, Regular, SemiBold and Bold - plus their respective italic versions. The fonts are available in OpenType PS format and have extended character set to support CE, Baltic, Turkish as well as Western European languages.

Quality Enhancement Plan
In accordance with the SACS-COC reaffirmation process Panola College has established a Quality Enhancement Plan designed to enhance the quality of education experienced by students. Through broad-based involvement, it was determined that the local success rate for students in developmental math courses needed further attention. In response to this, Panola College has prepared a program designed to increase college level preparedness for students in developmental math courses.
This program, called "DO the Math: Developing Opportunities in Math" consists of attaching lab hours to the first two courses in the developmental math sequence: where the lowest level math course is tied to a two-hour lab and the second level math course to a one-hour lab. In those math labs, instructors are charged with supplementing the students' instruction using a wide array of modalities to include computer based instruction, one-on-one tutoring, group tutoring, small group collaboration, peer tutoring, small group instruction, manipulatives, and the like.
Traditional education models still dominate the three-hour lecture, but in the lab section it will be up to the professor to determine the appropriate needs and select an educational intervention to support student learning. In this way, students will get individualized instruction through the support of educational experts. Student success for this program will be measured through pre and post analysis based on student learning objectives as well as through strategic performance measures. This approach will help leaders to determine the effectiveness of the program and make requisite changes, if necessary. Further, the program is designed to increase student learning, success, and retention within the developmental math sequence. This plan went into effect in the Fall semester of 2010 and will continue under the guidance of a Director and a diverse faculty committee.

This post in in context of some great fun tutorials written by IronGeek[1] and Neutron[2]. And I would appreciate if both IronGeek and Neutron could reply to this thread. I was going through IronGeek's tutorial of cracking cached domain/Active directory NTLM hashes (lsass) with a patch applied to JTR. I intend to crack these NTLM hashes by means of a password cracking cluster [2] (Neutron's tutorial) using clusterKnoppix. But Neutron did it using Cisilia and the patch for cracking NTLM hashes is actually developed for JTR (as mentioned in IronGeek's tutorial). How can I make Cisilia to crack these NTLM hashes in a distributed environment OR how can I compile JTR (with the patch) to work in a distributed environment.
I have googled distributed JTR, but i want to knw that would it be a good option if i compile a distributed JTR (i.e. DJohn with the patch released for cracking NTLM hashes. I hope I am making myself clear enough.
Thank you

"If we were there, we'd hug ya!" not a slogan, but a way of life.
I was hired onto this company on June 23rd of last year and since that date life as I knew completely changed. I was unemployed and desperately looking for work until the day I received a phone call from Lietta about a potential opening here, at this little warehouse in Costa Mesa, California, called HottubWorks. The very next I came for an interview and my first day of work began, the rest is history.
Since my beginning work here, I've watched this little company grow and I've grown right along with it. Everyday is another day to show that we're here, surviving, and caring for each and every person we come in contact with.
Working at HottubWorks is a blessing. I came into this company with some past problems and everyone has been right there with me at each turn always encouraging me, always supporting me, and helping me reach my goals; one day at a time & one hug at a time.

Nice car Wyatt, I have a few suggestions for you though, A lesson I learned from showing my personal designs to my car budies is I wasnt leaving room for...an ENGINE! That looks like the case with your car. Also you MIGHT wanna get rid of that black thing under the front bumper, that's just like not aerodynamic at all If you wanna design fast looking cars take a look at real ones, www.mclarencars.com www.ferrari.com www.porsche.com What method did you use to make this car?

There are some good suggestions. Just make some of those adjustments. Get some down low shots, like worms eye view. Add a little shock bumping on the cars and they will look like there screaming down the road. Story boarding help allot, Get the overall idea on paper even if it is just text. On each scene I write down an aproximate time for each view. Put some fast shots then do some close ups in on the same scenes, just to give the viewer some idea of what is happening. Well i hope I didn't yak too much. Have fun as usuall. What did you use for texturing? Maps or raytracing... just wondering they may look a little to shinny. I love car chases, keep it up!

I put off working on the mclaren, right now i'm designing my own car, I mean every aspect of it. The only thing is it'd be nice to find someone who's like an engineer or something to help me design the chassis engine mounts and all the shit under the hood. It's gonna be a rear mounted V-12 and the way i'm designing it if this could get made it would be bad as hell because I devised a system to give a large amount of downforce for taking turns and such but then this system can be closed/shut off to take off the down force and reduce drag to give maximum speed. [edit] Oh yea by the way, does anyone know of a program where i could say make a 3d model of a car then have a program test the aerodynamics of it, showing how air would flow and if parts would add lift or downforce? thanks!

Warwick ice ready for regional
Every journey has a first step, even a journey to a national championship. For figure skaters across New England, that step will be taken in Warwick.
Beginning on Friday, the Warwick Figure Skaters and Thayer Arena will host the New England Regional Figure Skating Championships. The event continues through Tuesday, and each day's slate will feature some of the region's best skaters.
They'll be shooting for the stars.
"It's very exciting," said Beth Flanders, the vice president of the Warwick Figure Skaters board and the event organizer. "There are regionals across the country and the top four at each regional advance to sectionals. From there, they go to the national competition. This is the first step in that process. We're excited to be part of it."
WFS submitted its bid to host the regional championship last year. The club has played host to big events before and felt this one would be a perfect fit. In July of 2011, U.S. Figure Skating awarded the event to WFS and Thayer Arena. Kent Hospital stepped up as the presenting sponsor.
"We were all really excited," Flanders said. "Once the excitement wore off, we realized how much planning we had to do."
With more than a year to get ready, the club is well-prepared. But it certainly hasn't been easy.
"We've had monthly meetings for a year, organizational charts, a local organizing committee," Flanders said. "It's a huge coordination effort."
U.S. Figure Skating has a lot of requirements for its events, as well, so there's been a lot to do on that front. And with 44 officials coming to town, there are a lot of people to get into the right place at the right time.
But once the skaters hit the ice this weekend, all the planning will be worth it.
"The first reason we wanted to do it is the love of the sport," Flanders said. "That's what WFS is all about. It also gives us good exposure as a club, and for our kids that skate, it's going to be amazing to see the higher-level skaters and be exposed to this level of competition."
U.S. Figure Skating is the national governing body of the sport and the road to its U.S. championship features some of the country's biggest events. Top skaters from nine regions move on to three sectionals, and then to the Prudential U.S. Figure Skating Championship in Omaha, Neb., in January.
At that level, the top skaters are some of the best in the world. Last year's U.S. Ladies Champion Ashley Wagner, of California, went on to place fourth at the World Championships. In 2010, the second-place finisher in the Senior Men's Division at the U.S. Championships was Evan Lysacek, who went on to win an Olympic Gold Medal.
While the event in Warwick is far from that level, it's not too far – and Warwick is part of it all.
"It means a lot to our club," Flanders said. "For our skaters, it really gives them insight into what they can accomplish and what it takes."
While plenty of WFS skaters will be watching, a few will also be competing. Alizee Ballarin, Sybrinna Allen and Taylor Spinnard of Warwick; Kayla McCarthy of Ashaway; and Daniel Kuyoth of Coventry will all represent WFS in the competition.
"It'll be awesome for them," Flanders said. "They'll have a little home-ice advantage."
The event begins with official practices on Friday, before the competition starts Saturday. Skaters compete in the juvenile, intermediate, novice, junior and senior levels. Nearly 200 skaters are slated to take the ice.
General admission tickets for the event are $10 per person and free for children under 4. An all-event pass may be purchased for $30. Tickets will be available at the registration check-in desk during the event.

UCSB Men Geared for Breakthrough Season
The UCSB men's cross country team is out for redemption.
The disappointing finale to last year's successful season, a second-place tie at the Big West Championships and a dismal ninth at the NCAA Regional Meet, all left the Gauchos with a bad taste in their mouth. It's a taste that they don't want to have again, and a taste that has given them the motivation to train hard through track season and the summer, in preparation for what could be their year.
"There's an anticipation this year that has never been known to the program before," said head coach Pete Dolan.
With an all-star pack of talented veterans, including Eric Gans (second at 2000 Big West Cross Country Championships), Josh Horton (15th in the 10,000 meters at the 2001 NCAA Division 1 Track and Field Championships), Brandon von Guenthner (eighth at the 2000 Big West Cross Country Championships), Aaron Sharp (third in the 10,000 at the 2001 Big West Track and Field Championships), and Steve Rider (3rd fastest 5,000 meter time in the Big West Conference) it looks like the Gauchos will be both strong and deep in 2001.
"It's awesome," said Gans. "There's nine or 10 guys that could be in the top five for us. I love it!"
Last year's top runners and fifth-year seniors Gans and Horton know that the season is a long one, with the Big West Championships set for Oct. 27 and the Regionals two weeks later, and that consistent hard work is the only way they will get there.
The ultimate team goal is the same as last year's, to get to the NCAA Division 1 Cross Country Championships. But this year the big meet is in South Carolina, not Iowa, and the Gauchos have both the physical talent and the mental toughness to make it all the way to Furman University.
All UCSB events are on hold until further developments in light of Tuesday's terrorist attacks in new York and Washington, D.C. That includes the UCSB Lagoon meet on Saturday, in the which the Gauchos will race against Cal State Fullerton, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, Westmont, and the UCSB Alumni team (which nearly gave the current Gauchos a surprise in last year's meet). It's still not certain if the Mustangs, last year's Big West Champions, will be bringing their 'A' team, but either way UCSB is hungry to beat their rivals.
"Our plans for that race are to get a good workout," said Horton before Tuesday's events. "But if they bring their No. 1 guys then we're gonna go after them. We can't have them come into our house and beat us."

Sandi Hennequin: DOE should suspend Northern Pass permit applicationBY SANDI HENNEQUIN
October 14. 2013 5:04PM
The U.S. Department of Energy recently held scoping hearings across New Hampshire on the troubled and controversial Northern Pass transmission project. At the hearing in Concord, the New England Power Generators Association (NEPGA) explained why the Northern Pass application for a Presidential Permit should be suspended from further consideration.
Northern Pass is a proposed private 187-mile transmission line to bring power from Quebec through New Hampshire to serve electric needs of Connecticut and Massachusetts. To do this, it must be granted a Presidential Permit to cross the U.S. border.
The amended application Northern Pass filed last summer is not complete. The project doesn't have necessary site control. It does not even offer a feasible alternative if it does not obtain site control of its preferred route. The pending application misrepresents the project's likely impacts, uses outdated and inaccurate data and fails to provide necessary information. In particular, the application misrepresents three key areas.
• Costs: Northern Pass asserted three years ago that it will lead to annual reductions of $206 million to $327 million in wholesale electricity prices. The industry has dramatically changed since then, with the predominance of low-cost shale gas reserves on New England's doorstep. NEPGA's own updated study found that any estimated energy benefits should be lowered by 50 percent.
Northern Pass also makes the assumption that Hydro-Quebec will maximize its full export capability into New England. This is contradicted by the fact that Quebec recently completed a major new export line to Ontario and received necessary state approvals for a Northern Pass-like line into New York. Hydro-Quebec will identify where it can sell its power at the highest price and shift its exports accordingly.
• Jobs: Northern Pass overstates job impacts and promises 1,200 New Hampshire jobs. PolEcon Research, a Dover-based economic consulting firm conducted a 2012 analysis of the Northern Pass jobs study, concluding that there would be at most 533 jobs in year two of project construction and 241 jobs in year one.
PolEcon also found that the New Hampshire economy lacks the required business inputs or specialized labor to complete the project, creating a need to largely rely upon out-of-state businesses and labor. In the current economic environment, job creation clearly should not be viewed negatively. But it also should not be overstated to win support for a controversial project.
• Reliability: Northern Pass mischaracterizes its project as needed for reliability purposes while not identifying its own transmission-related reliability issues. It fails to mention the 1998 ice storm that left 3 million people in 200 Quebec towns without electricity, some for many weeks. It doesn't mention Quebec forest fires last summer that led to a loss of New England load representing about 8 percent of the region's peak load and causing frequency disturbances as far south as Florida. It also doesn't mention an August lightning strike in Churchill Falls that caused power losses to 400,000 Montreal customers.
All aspects of the reliability issue must be examined as part of the Presidential Permit application, including the reliability impacts for our region from relying on more power over a long-distance transmission line from an area with a significant history of transmission-related problems. Further, the Independent System Operator New England, the region's electric grid manager, has repeatedly said publicly that this project is not needed for electric system reliability.
The New England State Committee on Electricity (NESCOE) recently released a Black & Veatch study recommending solutions to any concerns of natural gas dependence for electricity generation. Black & Veatch evaluated three options, including two approaches to importing electricity from Canada and a new major gas pipeline across New England. The report recommended a cross-regional natural gas pipeline, noting that it provides bigger benefits to consumers and better supports electric reliability than alternative long-term solutions.
The Northern Pass project has been controversial since its announcement several years ago. No amount of advertising can disguise that this project is not ready for prime time. Given the misrepresentations in the amended application and the fact that the project has not reached the minimum threshold of attaining meaningful site control, the U.S. Department of Energy should suspend its process to consider the granting of a Presidential Permit to Northern Pass.

Design Matters: Making Sense of Forms
Train your eye to see the layers in a great design.

Early 20th-century filmmakers used timelapse photography to dazzle audiences with never-before-seen images of flowers emerging and bursting into bloom. Critics with Victorian sensibilities objected that something so intimate should best be left hidden. Sometimes a well-designed piece of furniture can feel like it holds on to its secrets. We sense there are many hidden design lessons if we could only see them. A good place to start is to learn how to recognize and visualize forms.
A form is a combination of simple shapes that together make up a composition. A form is what catches your eye from a distance; it's the "bones," or what some refer to as the "lines of a piece." When I study a design I start by looking at it from across the room and take in the overall form. A Corinthian capital is a form. Underneath all those leaves and volutes is a simple vase shape, or you might imagine it as an inverted bell. Can you visualize that simple shape underneath all those leaves? Ancient legend holds that the form is inspired by a basket left at a graveside. An acanthus plant grew up around the basket providing the germ of an idea for this form.

Colorado junior forward Andre Roberson will enter the NBA draft.
The school announced the decision Sunday on its website, saying he notified coach Tad Boyle earlier in the day. Roberson originally scheduled a news conference for Friday, but it was canceled to give him more time to consider his decision.
Roberson led the Pac-12 with an 11.2-rebounding average. He also scored nearly 11 points a game, helping the Buffs reach their second straight NCAA tournament for the first time in a half-century.
The 6-foot-7 Roberson is projected to be a second-round pick. He may lack the size of strong NBA rebounders, but he makes up for it with his leaping ability.
Said Boyle: "We support Andre and want what's best for him and his family. We wish him the best."

The term HTML5 now refers to the much-hyped kitchen sink of the web. It covers *everything* including things not officially part of the HTML5 specification. Yet "HTML5" is now the catch phrase to describe the new wave of platform competition on the web, and browser vendors vie to outdo each other on benchmark tests touting compliance and performance.
Every major browser vendor -- Apple, Opera, IE, Chrome, and Firefox -- will have a significant browser release by SxSW 2011. Microsoft's recent IE9 press event suggests that they are "all in for HTML5." So if all of us browser vendors are "all in" for HTML5, what does this mean for web developers? And what's up with the dirty marketing buzz around tests and demo pages?
This panel will expose the areas where we browser vendors cooperate as well as compete, and will push on the painful spots where we seem to disagree. We'll bring every major browser vendor to the table, and talk about open video on the web (and video codecs), what this all means to Flash, APIs (including contentious ones, like databases), CSS (including once hot areas like fonts) graphics, SVG vs. Canvas, WebGL, Device APIs, and security.
This browser wars panel will be less like Inside Baseball, and more about the practical issues confronting web developers today. We'll poke at the raw spots that browser vendors need to discuss. As always, audience participation will account for a substantial chunk of time.

The American entrepreneur, who is a member of the executive board of the NBA's Boston Celtics, only took charge of the Giallorossi last August, but his tenure has already been the subject of some controversy and concern. Consequently, Pallotta has moved to reassure fans who were left bemused by the way in which their new president was duped by 'fake sheik' Adnan Adel Aref Al Qaddumi Al Shtewi earlier this year, insisting that he knows exactly what he is doing and is committed in the long term.
"Two of our consultants recommended him, so we went ahead [with the planned investment deal]," Pallotta explained to Gazzetta dello Sport. "But when we presented the contract, the money never arrived. We did all the relevant research. We are certainly not stupid. So, we lost only time, not money.
"But in just a few months I have stuck to everything that I have said. We have agreements with giants such as Disney, Volkswagen and now Nike. Few clubs in the world have done better than us in terms of sponsors. Ours is a 20-year investment, because such projects take time. As they say, 'Rome wasn't built in a day.' But don't worry: with the Celtics, I won after just five seasons."
Indeed, Pallotta has the utmost confidence in those currently responsible for running the sporting side of his Roma operation.
"I am satisfied with the results of [sporting director Walter] Sabatini and [director general Franco] Baldini," he insisted. "We are capable of beating anyone, and we have shown that. We just lack consistency."
Pallotta added that he is also hoping veteran club captain Francesco Totti will still be plying his trade at the Stadio Olimpico when Roma starts winning titles again.
"Personally, I cannot even imagine going to see Roma and not finding Totti on the field," he enthused.
Pallotta, who is the founder of the Raptor group, succeeded Thomas DiBenedetto as Giallorossi president on August 27 of last year.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — With the show's sleek, angular set as a backdrop, Emmy Awards presenters and performers took a few minutes to perfect their lines the day before the ceremony.
Allison Janney, Anna Faris, Don Cheadle and Carrie Underwood were among those rehearsing Saturday at the Nokia Theatre, where the 65th annual Primetime Emmy Awards will be presented Sunday.
Janney and Faris play mother and daughter on their new show, "Mom," and channeled that vibe in their rehearsal. Wearing a silver mini-dress with matching sandals, Faris was all energy. After missing one of her lines, she joked, "Yeah, I'm going to be great at this." Janney, willowy in a black T-shirt, jeans and boots, seemed studious by contrast — or maybe it was just the dark-framed glasses she was wearing.
They presented two awards in front of an audience of rehearsal actors and seat-saving placards. When they finished, Faris tried to thank the crew from the stage, but the microphone had been turned off. She and Janney then walked through the audience, looking for their seats.
Cheadle, in a polo shirt and jeans, delivered a monologue about television's impact on culture by discussing coverage of two key events of 50 years ago: The assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the stateside debut of the Beatles on "The Ed Sullivan Show."
Underwood's performance is set to immediately follow Cheadle's presentation, but she rehearsed later Saturday.
Stars were rewarded for rehearsing at a "giving suite" near their dressing rooms that raised money for the Television Academy Foundation while offering luxury freebies. Though high-end hotel stays and handmade leather goods were given away, Janney was most taken with Zoomer, a robot dog that responds to vocal commands and tummy scratches. She grabbed one as a gift for her three dogs at home.

There is a man who was in a car accident and almost died. For along time – including the month of Ramadaan – he was in serious condition and in a coma. After that the Almighty and Most Generous Creator granted him healing and he was restored to perfect health. Zzzzdoes he have to make up his fasts and prayers?
If it really happened as you say, that this man had lost consciousness during that period – including the month of Ramadaan – when he was not aware of anything as a result of the accident, then he does not have to make up the fasts and prayers that he missed during the days when he was unconscious. This is according to the more correct of the two scholarly opinions, and is because he was not accountable or required to do those acts of worship during that period.
And Allaah is the Source of strength. May Allaah send blessings and peave upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions.

Sea Eagles smash Eels
THE Manly Sea Eagles have trounced the Parramatta Eels 40-6 in front of 11,232 fans at Parramatta Stadium.
No team was able to grab the upper hand early in the match, while the Eels dominated possession and were at the right end of a lop sided penalty count, they failed to capitalise on their opportunities.
Back to back penalties placed the Eels right on the attack in the 20th minute, however, Ben Roberts decision to put up a cross-field bomb on only the third tackle was going to prove to be costly. Steve Matai plucked the kick out of the the air and raced 30 metres before passing to Jorge Taufua who raced 70 metres to score.

Quote from: Lindbergh on August 28, 2007, 02:11:21 PMQuote from: kitty. on August 28, 2007, 02:07:40 PMAt some point we should also talk about improving public schools. Of course -- better K-12 education would be far more helpful than band-aid preferences at the college and graduate school level.However, this would not affect wealthier folks that much, who can presumably already afford private schools. Better K-12 education would greatly improve the quality of minority students matriculating @ today's colleges and universities. But I've got to tell y'all about racism in private schools.I first encountered racism as a teenager during the fall semester of my senior year at a private, Christian academy. I hadn't take any honors courses, but I had performed extremely well as a junior, especially in Biology and Chemistry. In fact, I had helped several Honors Chemistry students with their homework even though I was enrolled in the regular Chemistry course. (They frequently asked why I didn't take the Honors Chemistry course). Because of my ease with science courses and my stellar performance, I requested to enroll in the Honors Physics course, which led to a meeting with the vice-principal. She told me she didn't think I could handle the Honors Physics course, because I had never taken an Honors class, and the Honors courses were much tougher than the regular courses. In response I told her about my "unofficial" job as the Honors Chem tutor, but she acted like that meant nothing. I also asked her if other students with no prior Honors coursework had ever enrolled in an Honors course. As I expected, she revealed that some students had done so, but she emphasized that these were exceptional students. (Please note that the only non-A grade I'd received as a junior was in US History.) At that point, I got indignant. I wanted to ask if those "exceptional students" were white, but I decided to adopt a more diplomatic approach. (I didn't think showing out would do me much good since she was still the vice-principal.) I prodded incessantly until she agreed to enroll me on a trial basis. At the end of the semester I had the highest grade in Honors Physics, which meant that I could continue. End of story.What's the point? I was old enough to discern her unspoken sentiment. Would she have reacted differently if I were white? I'm not certain, but I'd bet you she would have. Her polite condescension would have discouraged most other students, but my mama didn't no raise no fool! I was determined to take Honors Physics, and would have gone to any length in order to enroll in the course.I'm currently studying for Summer School finals, so I'm letting TJ and Piggy battle the AA-bashers for now. I need to keep a high GPA. After all, I don't want to piss off my future presumptious law-school classmates who may think I got into a t14 law school with pathetic #s due to AA.Cheers,

I'm not sure that I find the VP tale a particularly compelling justification for AA. I had to fight my adminstrators to let me take honors courses, then AP courses, and then courses off-campus at the local community college all the way through school despite being clearly being one of the top students in my class. I'm not a minority, so I imagine that it came down to the fact that I was fighting for myself when other people just had their important parents up there complaining. I think everyone's run across an incompetent school administrator during their academic careers, and it's pretty conceivable that occasionally you'd run across a racist/paternalistic every once in awhile.
The largest issue I have with this debate is the fact that those individuals opposing affirmative action are trumping up the consequences/adverse effects of it.
Though discrimination is very difficult to prove, because of the systemic controls in place to prevent such detection, it still can be unveiled (pardon my sentence structure).
Perhaps republicans taking a stand against corporate lobbyist for less transparency in employer/employee relations would make evidence of discrimination available for public consumptioin.
Nonetheless, at the end of the day the powers that be can always vet the compensation of a Black man, White man, White woman with similar academic and job related experience.
These negligible adverse consequences you all continue mention are just that, negligible.
Furthermore, instances where privileged minorities are, as you all seem to think, taking advantage of the system are few and far between.
Secondly, quotas particularly regarding employment were put in place because qualified minority candidates were often overlooked for their less qualified White counterparts. Instances of discrimination like this ran rampant, which if I am not mistaken was the root cause for AA coming in to being.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A Republican senator said Sunday "it's fair to ask my party to put revenue on the table" as part of the solution to avoid the looming automatic tax increases and across-the-board spending cuts known as the "fiscal cliff."
South Carolina's Lindsey Graham said he's "willing to generate revenue" by steps such as capping tax deductions, which he says would most affect upper-income Americans. But he says he won't agree to higher taxes — a position shared by most Republicans in Congress.
President Barack Obama wants to let tax rates rise for wealthy families while sparing middle- and low-income taxpayers.
Graham told ABC's "This Week" that "for the good of the country," he's ready to violate an anti-tax pledge followed by most Republicans if Democrats agree to big changes in entitlement programs.
Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., said a pledge signed years ago should not necessarily apply in economic conditions that have changed greatly.
"I think everything should be on the table," he said, adding "I'm just saying we should not be taking ironclad positions."
King said on NBC's "Meet the Press" that "we have to show the world we're adults. The election's over." Get Obama and the congressional leaders in a room, he said. "That's what representative government should be about. No one gets all their way."

Lewis Cleale currently is playing - occasionally singing - five roles in "The Book of Mormon" on Broadway.
CORRECTION: Feb. 8, 2013
An incorrect performance date was listed in the print and initial online versions of this story. The error has been corrected online.
Lewis Cleale currently is playing - occasionally singing - five roles in "The Book of Mormon" on Broadway.
Still, he's perfectly pleased that he'll be singing in Stockton on Saturday and Sunday.
"For me," Cleale said. "I love it. If I could just do this, I would just do this."
That will be joining two other Broadway Tenors - David Burnham and John Cudia - in singing a Valentine Pops concert with the Stockton Symphony at Delta College's Atherton Auditorium.
"For me, it's just a thrill," said Cleale, 45, following a recent "Book of Mormon" rehearsal two blocks from his Manhattan, N.Y., residence. "You've gotta become your own story. Nothing really changes. It just ups everything emotionally when you look over and see three or four string basses.
"The sound is so rich, you feel you sound like (Frank) Sinatra or Judy Garland with a big orchestra. It's really rare for a non-star singer like me."
Cleale, Burnham and Cudia sing 20 Broadway and pop tunes/medleys while Peter Jaffe conducts the orchestra during a two-hour concert.
It's not that Cleale - who never thought he'd make it from tiny Houlton, Maine (pop: 6,476), to the big-time - isn't bored by being in the cast of a major Broadway production.
Doing eight shows a week for two years, though, can become kind of routine: "It's my day job. They own me."
In "Book of Mormon," he portrays Jesus, Joseph Smith (who founded Mormonism), a missionary president from Salt Lake City, Utah, the lead character's father and a missionary "training guy."
As Smith, he raps during "The All-American Prophet." He also sings "You're Making Things Up Again," addressed to a "kind of schlubby guy."
"It's lots of fun," he said. "I wear wigs, laugh and do stupid things. But it's fun."
It's his sixth Broadway production. Times - and tunes - are changing. Financial constraints have reduced orchestras to just 10 or 11 players. There are 60 musicians in the Stockton Symphony.
"Having a string section is considered such a luxury," said Cleale. "It's much, much, much more sound. Just a rich, full sound."
Cleale has appeared in six other the Broadway productions, including the ultra-hip "Spamalot" (as Sir Galahad, the Black Knight and others), "Once Upon a Mattress" and "Swinging on a Star." This is different.
"Although there's not as much singing as I'd like," Cleale said. "As much as anything it's a fantastic place to be. The writing is so good. I adored them (Trey Parker and Matt Stone) before and adore them even more now.
"It's become a cultural lighthouse. It got into the mainstream. Every time you turn on a TV or open a magazine there it is. It's been a great place to be. It's kind of fun. A constant party."
Cleale never thought he'd get there. Born in Houlton, he said, "Stockton's claim to fame is asparagus. Our claim to fame is we have potatoes."
His grandfather, Lewis Potter - a "great" baritone singer in the 1920s - "definitely zeroed in on me (Cleale has three sisters and a brother)," he said. Cleale's mom, Carol, who retired from nursing at age 78, sang and played piano. Ralph, his dad, was an engineer and owned a restaurant.
He started playing trumpet at age 6, but switched to piano at 9 after he "went over the handle bars of my bike and knocked my teeth out. I realized I was much better at singing than playing trumpet.
"I've always been a singer and musician. I thought I was pretty good for Houlton. But, growing up on a potato field, I didn't know I could make it in the outside."
His first move was to the University of Miami, where he chose finance as a major. He added music "for my soul."
A "dream-dropper" professor told Cleale, "If you weren't so lazy you could do this."
During a one-unit music class, he sang songs from "The Story of Edwin Dood," prompting the professor to say, "I don't know who you are, but you should do this. Whatever he said and how he said it, I figured maybe this guy knows what he's talking about."
Next, he auditioned for the Burt Reynolds Theater Company in Jupiter, Fla., singing "On the Street Where You Live," from "My Fair Lady."
It was a success: "He just touched my brain in the right way. I don't know how he knew after one song."
Cleale spent six months at Reynolds' theater. He was chosen to stay as one of 13 students from a group of 300. He learned even more working with Reynolds, Paul Newman, Dom DeLuise and others.
Those experiences led him back to New York. Among his credits are roles in "I Do, I Do" (with Kate Baldwin); "Sondheim on Sondheim" (with Vanessa Williams); "Camelot" (as Sir Lancelot): "Once Upon a Mattress (with Sarah Jessica Parker); and "Giant" (as Bick Benedict).
On July 21, he'll leave "The Book of Mormon" to start preparing a stage version of "The Honeymooners" at San Diego's Globe Theatre. Cleale will portray an executive who hires Ralph Kramden and Ed Norton for a TV commercial: "Chaos ensues," he said.

Hi All:
I started blogging in July 2010, 3 months after I found out I was pregnant with my first son. I started it to keep my friends and family up to date about my pregnancy, but I have enjoyed keeping it updated since Owen's birth, and now I write about everything that goes on in our lives.
I have 1,000,000 questions, but I'll start with this :)
I would like purchase a domain name so that I can have more freedom with my blog (twobluelines.wordpress.com) Is there anything I should know before I do this? I am going to rename my blog since it's not really conducive to what I'm writing about now. Should I buy the address through wordpress or through something like godaddy.com? Also, once I buy the address, would it be advantageous to upgrade to wordpress.org?
Where should I start?! AHHH!!
Views: 54
Hi Jamie!
As for buying the domain, that is easy! Buying on Godaddy is ok. But, depending on what you decide to do with hosting I would hold off on buying until you decide where to do hosting. Although even if you buy a domain on Godaddy you can still host elsewhere. And, yes... I totally recommend switching over to self-hosted Wordpress.org. You can check out an article that I wrote not too long ago at http://www.socialmoms.com/tech/blogging-platform-software-website/. You have a lot more options on Wordpress to get it working just the way that you want!
Were you planning on building the site yourself? If not, I'm happy to chat with you about options, etc. Just send me a message on here or email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. :)
Either way, good luck!!
Hi Jamie-
Always go with a self hosted wordpress blog. If you need referrals for someone to work with you can email me at email@example.com. Good luck and happy blogging.
Jamie, Kris gave some good advice.
Also, when you get your domain, make sure you can buy up the .com, .net, .biz, etc. (You can "point" them in GoDaddy to go to your main .com blog).
It may seem like a lot to invest (do a search for GoDaddy discount codes online). But if your blog turns into a business for you - and someone else owns the other domains - it'll be hard to buy them back.
I've also known bloggers who saw that the .com wasn't available for the domain they liked, so thought it was OK just to get the .net. Their blogs turned out to be very successful and they can't buy the .com from the other owner. So it's sort of ruined their success a little bit.
Finally, you may want to buy domains for your name and your kids' names (at least the .com) if you have the spare money.
Hi Jamie
Do some keyword research first before you buy anything and see what words you will be targeting. Having an search egine friendly site starts with having great architecture. Plan your site out from top to bottom what are the 3 keywords of your homepage you will be targeting, what are the keywords for each of the pages on your site as well. Who are you targeting, how will you get traffic to you, what are you offering to make people come to you.
My advice do a complete site layout and then look at your competition to see who you are up against. Can you beat them? If the sites you are competing against have a PR4 or higher good luck it will take a great deal of work. Your keywords are just that key to your success.
Check out my blog I have Affordable Search Engine Optimizationtechniques and SEO Basics to Blogging on my site that will help you out.

China could surpass the U.S. as early as next year as the world's biggest spender in business travel, a year sooner than business travel experts had previously forecast.
With China's gross domestic product growing at a slow but steady pace, the world's most populous country is expected to increase spending on business travel by 16.5% in 2014 to $262.1 billion and 17.8% in 2015 to $309 billion, according to the Global Business Travel Assn. Foundation.
The foundation--the education arm for the world's business traveler managers--had previously predicted that China would overtake the U.S. as the top spender on business travel by 2016.
"The growth in China's economy has been unprecedented, propelling the country's business travel market to the second largest market in the world driven by real spending gains for rising business travel demand in both transient and group meetings and events," said Welf J. Ebeling, regional director for GBTA Asia.
Spending on business travel from China now represents about 20% of the world's global business travel market, up from 5% in 2000, the GBTA estimates.
But about 95% of the growth in China's business travel has been driven by domestic travel spending, the group said.
To keep up with the growth, China has been building new airports and expanding existing airports. A previous study showed that China has plans underway to build nearly 1,700 hotel projects, adding about 435,000 hotel rooms.
