Auburn tabs Malzahn as new head coach
Auburn, AL – Gus Malzahn is headed back to Auburn.
The university announced Tuesday that it has hired Malzahn, who spent three seasons there as offensive coordinator before becoming the head coach at Arkansas State, to replace the recently fired Gene Chizik.
Malzahn was the Tigers' offensive coordinator from 2009-11 and helped lead the school to a national championship in 2010.
Aided by Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Cam Newton, Auburn ranked seventh in scoring (41.2 points per game) and fifth in rushing (284.8 yards per game) en route to a 14-0 campaign in 2010 that ended with a victory over Oregon in the BCS Championship Game.
For his efforts, Malzahn received the Broyles Award recognizing the top assistant coach in college football following that season.
"We are tremendously excited that Gus Malzahn will be our next head football coach," said Auburn athletics director Jay Jacobs. "Coach Malzahn was the clear unanimous choice of our search committee, and I am pleased that (president) Dr. (Jay) Gogue has accepted our recommendation. This is a great day for Auburn football and Auburn University."
After leaving The Plains to take over the program at Arkansas State in December of 2011, the 47-year-old Malzahn guided Arkansas State to a 9-3 record and a Sun Belt championship in his lone season with the Red Wolves. Arkansas State earned a spot in the Jan. 6 GoDaddy.com Bowl against Kent State.
"Gus Malzahn is a proven winner," Jacobs said. "He is without question one of the brightest minds in college football and he has won everywhere he has been. Coach Malzahn knows what it takes to build a championship program in the Southeastern Conference. He knows our state and region and he understands what it will take to turn our program around. Coach Malzahn will also be an outstanding ambassador for Auburn University, and that was important to the committee."
Just two years removed from capturing the national title, Auburn went 3-9 and 0-8 in the SEC this season, which led to Chizik's dismissal.
Prior to arriving at Auburn in 2009, Malzahn spent two years as the offensive coordinator at Tulsa (2007-08) and one at Arkansas (2006).

Even the bench got in on this win.
A night after getting doubled up by Glenwood Springs on Thursday, the Durango High School girls basketball team rode contributions from all 13 players, not to mention 26 points from Molly Barnes, to bounce back and beat Steamboat Springs 54-49 in overtime Friday night in the Southwestern League/Western Slope League District Championships in Grand Junction.
Even the bench, DHS head coach Nancy Smith said. They were just loud and annoying.
The girls said the other team just started rolling their eyes like Oh my gosh; I have a headache already.
Good shooting from the Demons turned out to be the Sailors biggest headache, starting with Barnes, whose 26 overcame the troubles shes had in getting her shots to fall for much of this season.
Shanelle Bogus added eight points and pulled down 11 rebounds for Durango, which adjusted well to Steamboat Springs full-court press and half-court zone defense to find space for open looks.
We hit our shots (Friday night), Smith said. That was a huge difference.
Turnovers still plagued Durango, as they ended up with more than two dozen, and that allowed the Sailors to hang around. Steamboat Springs fed the post for points at the end of regulation.
But Katie Wiegert and Jessi Sigillito, who also scooped up seven steals, followed Barnes lead.
Sigillito hit one free throw, then Wiegert hit two at the end to give us breathing room, Smith said.
Gosh, it was a great confidence booster, Smith said.
It was thrilling.
No. 4 DHS (12-9) will play No. 8 Palisade (10-12) for fifth place at 1 p.m. today at Grand Junction Central High School.
No. 6 Steamboat Springs (11-11) will play No. 7 Eagle Valley (12-10) at 10 a.m. today for seventh place.

Disturbed by
As a native of El Paso and a current resident of Bedford, I am deeply disturbed by Mike Forster's column in the 12/25/13 edition of the Bedford Bulletin.
Time to retake
Government 101
I am an OTR driver and away from home for long periods of time...my wife saves me the papers so that I can catch up on whats happening around the county when I return. I have just returned and have been reading up on 'happenings' and I am always amazed at the rantings of one particular person when it come to the Sheriff.
Remembrances of the home
I was saddened to learn of the fire at 719 Longwood Ave.
It was my father, John Bibb's family home from 1906 when he and his twin sister Josephine Bibb were born in the house. Josephine lived in the house until she died in 2003.
Thank you
The learning
Putting guns in schools is tacit acceptance that society has failed, whether it's a school resource officer, a metaphor for policeman, or armed instructors. Like many of our problems, we refuse to see the deeper reasons for school shootings and only apply easy, mindless solutions.
The example used at the Supervisor's meeting can be seen more as an exception to the rule, than as a rationalization for arming teachers.
Effort benefits neighbors
When it was announced that benefits under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) would be reduced effective November 1, Walmart decided to put extra emphasis on its stores' October food collection drive.
Arming teachers in Bedford schools
As a former resident of Bedford City I am writing concerning the arming of teachers in Bedford City/County classrooms.
In the event that a gunman comes into a classroom the teacher will have to shift gears from her lesson, go to her desk, unlock the desk, take out the handgun, unlock the trigger-guard and fire back at a the gunman. This, of course, will not happen because by then the teacher and students will have been fired upon and probably killed or injured.
Who has been hurt?
The author of an October 22 letter to the editor stated that he was unable to identify the "millions of people hurting from Obamacare." An October 29 article in the Washington Post might be of assistance in that task.
Record of public service
It is our duty in this political climate of suspicion to elect competent leaders. The leader is Terry Austin, candidate for the Virginia House of Delegates for the 19th district.
Terry has an impeccable record of public service making him the ideal candidate for this office.
Time for some protectionism
To emphasize the effects of the partial government shutdown, a T.V. news program interviewed a woman who asked "How am I going to feed my kids?" Perhaps the question might be, how many working people does it take to support our country's social programs?
More than we have!

David Savastano, Ink World Editor05.11.10
With all of the shifts that have occurred in the printing industry, including consolidation and serious concerns over the state of the publication side of the business, there still are areas of strength and opportunity.
In particular, the packaging printing and packaging ink fields remain reasonably strong.
Within packaging, there are niches that are enjoying solid growth. Notably, energy curing continues to make gains, as converters and brand owners alike look toward ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) technologies for performance and environmental benefits. They are counting on their ink and coatings suppliers to develop innovative technologies and offer excellent service.
However, the recession has taken its toll on printing ink manufacturers as well, as consolidation of companies and branches as well as personnel reductions have limited the support available for printers.
As a result, while it is a challenging time to be a start-up company, there are also opportunities.
Bill Mahon, president of Benchmark Coating Solutions, Elk Grove Village, IL, believes that the time is right for a new UV/EB coatings manufacturer. Benchmark Coating Solutions is focusing its efforts on the coatings side of the business, working with narrow web, label, sheetfed and packaging printers and supplying in-line and off-line coatings. Mr. Mahon is also working on a full line of coatings compatible with the various toner- and inkjet-based systems that are on the market today.
"We cover the gamut of printing, from the narrow web and packaging printer to the commercial printer," Mr. Mahon said.
A former technical director at Handschy Industries, Mr. Mahon has worked on energy curing for more than 20 years, including Sun Chemical, UCB Radcure (now Cytec Industries) and Craig Adhesives & Coatings.
He opened Benchmark Coating Solutions' doors on Jan. 1 of this year, with an eye toward filling the gaps in service that are occurring, particularly for smaller customers.
"The trend in the ink industry has been for consolidation, and as companies become bigger and bigger, smaller customers are being neglected," Mr. Mahon said. "There is a vacuum, as there is a need for a company that caters to the smaller customer, that can support the customer while delivering customized solutions.
"Converters are running leaner now," Mr. Mahon continued. "They need an ink and coatings supplier who has the expertise with formulating ink, as well as a strong understanding of curing equipment and presses."
Mr. Mahon noted that the UV/EB coatings market continues to expand.
"UV and EB remain a growth area," Mr. Mahon said. "They are certainly a technology that is seen as a preferred choice, due to their environmental benefits, ease of use and functionality. UV and EB give converters a good option, and even in a shrinking ink market, energy curing remans a bright light."
Mr. Mahon said the company's initial geographic focus will be the greater Chicago area. "There is plenty of business within a day's drive in this area," he said.
Considering the fact that Benchmark Coating Solutions has only been open for less than four months, Mr. Mahon said the company is enjoying a very good start.
"It's promising," Mr. Mahon said. "We're getting a decent reaction from the market, and we are on target for our first-year goals."

Choosing the Right Law School / Re: Cardozo FT $$$$ vs New Job x Brooklyn PT???« on: June 09, 2012, 04:36:04 PM »
Yeah it says guaranteed to be renewed for the 2nd and 3rd years provided that I comply with the disciplinary code applicable to all Cardozo students... There's nothing in there about a GPA minimum, but I'll be sure to ask just to be 100%. I ran the numbers a couple more times, and thought about each scenario playing out; at the moment I'm thinking Cardozo might make more sense unless Brooklyn can give me at least 15k/year. Gonna try to cut my expenses down as much as possible to keep the debt down.

LEXINGTON, Ky.—Andrew Harrison smiles. He sees the question develop before the words even are formed, the way he might read every possibility in a 3-on-2 fast break and choose the proper pass before the defense can react. He recognizes what is coming.
Some prominent analysts have suggested Andrew and his twin brother Aaron might be difficult teammates. Yep, heard that one before.
PHOTOS: Marcus Lee's classic Halloween look; other stars included
There were suggestions elite power forward Julius Randle, whose on-court rivalry with the brothers stretched back to grade school, would not consent to join them. It was prevalent enough that a year ago, shortly after the Harrisons committed to Kentucky but months before he would decide to join them, Randle felt compelled to write a blog for USA Today that debunked that theory.
Randle called the whole commotion "the craziest thing I've ever heard." And later on, he signed with Kentucky. So maybe it is.
"To be honest with you, I think it just comes from our opponents, I guess how we come off as such competitors," Andrew told Sporting News. "I hate to lose, and when I do lose I don't always do it the right way.
"I never had a teammate that I didn't like, or hopefully that didn't like me."
There was an incident during the twins' sophomore year in high school, when Aaron became engaged in a fight with a senior teammate and Andrew ran from the bench onto the floor to help defend him. All three players were suspended from school and a playoff game as a result.
It seems a bit of a stretch though, to base a lingering reputation on something that happened when the two were 10th graders.
MORE: Five hurdles to a possible unbeaten season for Kentucky
Brian Snow of Scout.com acknowledged that he wondered how the two would interact on the court with other elite players, because they'd dominated their high school and summer teams in the manner one might expect from a pair of top-10 prospects who'd grown up so close. But the rest? "I felt it was overblown," Snow told SN.
Well, the Harrisons certainly are getting a full-immersion experience in interacting with other elite players now. They are surrounded by former high school All-Americans and future pros. They are an essential part of Sporting News' preseason No. 1 team, with a chance to become the most accomplished twin brothers in the game's history. The Van Arsdales, Tom and Dick, scored a combined 29,311 points in their NBA careers. That's a high bar but, from where the Harrisons stand, perhaps not out of reach.
And the only genuine disappointment to date is that Andrew, perhaps the most important member of the Wildcats, has been bothered by a knee bruise that limited his practice time when SN visited and in their Blue-White scrimmage Tuesday night.
They are identical twins, Andrew and Aaron, born Oct. 28 in 1994, Aaron coming along a minute before his younger brother but Andrew arriving with a better knack for dribbling a basketball.
Each now stands 6-6. Aaron is listed at 218 pounds, Andrew at 215, so that's just a couple extra bottles of Muscle Milk. At John Calipari's request, Andrew grew his hair a bit longer so the coach could more easily tell them apart.
That Andrew is a natural point guard and Aaron is more inclined to operate as a wing scorer is the one true distinction between them. There being far fewer 6-6 point guards than shooting guards, it was not surprising Andrew would become the slightly more coveted prospect. He was ESPN's No. 5 prospect in the loaded 2013 recruiting class; Aaron was No. 9.
"Really, it was just Andrew could dribble better than I could. And I could shoot better," Aaron said. "So we just went off that."
That was in fourth or fifth grade, as Aaron recalls. And that division of duties has held, until now. When Andrew has been unavailable to fill the point guard position in practice or in that scrimmage, Aaron has gotten the call to replace him.
"I didn't realize how much work the point guard position is," Aaron said. "You have to know where everybody is at all times. You have to run the team. You have to be in the best shape. He got a lot of respect from me out of me having to do that.
"It definitely is going to help me. It's helping me understand the game. I realize how easy I get my shots, because what he does is so hard. Those open jumpers that I get and those layups that I get on fast breaks, they all come from him or the other point guards. I appreciate it more now. I didn't even know it was that hard."
In playing point in the team's public scrimmage—which drew more than 15,000 fans to Rupp Arena—Aaron showed the position is growing on him by passing for six assists while still making 3-of-4 from 3-point range and scoring 19 points.
"Aaron is very talented. And I think he has a little chip on his shoulder when people say he's not as talented as other players," Andrew said. "I don't mean me. I think it's everybody else but me. He feels like he's just as talented as every other player they have up there. I think he tries to prove it every time he plays."
There's no doubt Aaron is proving he'll be worthy of plenty of minutes once Andrew is healthy and the season commences, especially since he has proven to be a functional alternative to his brother at point guard. But in terms of starting, Aaron is battling with classmate James Young and sophomore Alex Poythress to determine which two of the three will start at the wing positions.
Young has been the standout. Poythress is the veteran. Aaron might still be the most accurate and dangerous shooter on the roster. They'll all play plenty, but there is prestige in starting and perhaps a few more minutes and scoring opportunities.
"We just want to win. At the end, if we win we're all going to get what we want out of it," Aaron said. "Of course we all have individual stats we want to get, and we all have egos of course. But it's good to have that sort of competition at practice. We just need to maintain it as a group, just make sure we're all together."
The Harrisons will allow they look out for one another on the court, but it's understandable given the bond they've established as twin brothers and the chemistry that developed as they played so often together.
As he practices and prepares for the huge Nov. 12 game against No. 2 Michigan State, Andrew said he still is working to understand how teammates such as Randle and Young prefer to receive the basketball, in which positions they are most dangerous. He's already compiled and digested that book on Aaron.
Asked a philosophical question—if all four teammates somehow were equally open, would it be Aaron who'd get the ball?—Andrew doesn't bite.
"I'm going to make the winning play no matter what," he said. "Me and Aaron obviously have a little more chemistry. I know what he's going to do and stuff. But at the same time, all my teammates, I get along with, just like my brother.
"Hopefully, I'm hard to play against, but I definitely don't think I'm hard to play with."

Local developers, renovators or salvage companies have until Thursday to bid on a 107-year-old house the city of Hendersonville is removing to allow for a $16.2 million joint health education facility coming to Henderson County.
Local developers, renovators or salvage companies have until Thursday to bid on a 107-year-old house the city of Hendersonville is removing to allow for a $16.2 million joint health education facility coming to Henderson County.
Before Vannoy Construction can begin work on the facility to be shared by Wingate University, Pardee Hospital and Blue Ridge Community College, the land at 747 Sixth Ave. W. needs to be cleared of the two-story house and guesthouse that have been there for a century, and the city wanted any interested parties to have a shot at relocating the structure or removing and refurbishing its valuable assets.
The home is described as having five bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, a dining room, kitchen and pantry, living room and two bonus rooms. The guesthouse is a wood-framed, one-bedroom structure with a bathroom, kitchen, living room and small foyer.
The city is using GovDeals Inc. to auction both of the structures, with a starting bid of $5. Bidding is open until Thursday morning. GovDeals Inc. sells surplus properties and equipment for city, county, state and some federal government entities in 48 states, according to company president Bob DeBardelaben.
City Manager John Connet said the city wanted to "get the word out" about the houses so that anyone interested in preserving them in whole or part could take advantage of the auction opportunity.
Whether someone purchases the structures to relocate them, pick them apart or demolish them onsite, Connet said the land needs to be cleared of the houses by Aug. 25 or the city will demolish them.
"To remove all structures, it's roughly a $14,000 cost for us," he said.
So, the city is potentially looking at a money-saver, if a person or company pays to refurbish and remove the structures.
"It'd be nice if somebody would ... put some sliders under that thing and move it to another property," DeBardelaben said, referring to the two-story house. "It's a very beautiful old home."
He acknowledged that relocation would be the priciest option, and figures it'd be more feasible for a salvage company or renovator to remove and repurpose the house's antique wooden elements.
"I see a lot of good doors in there," DeBardelaben said. "(There are) a lot of beautiful wood beams in those houses."
Sally Dill can confirm DeBardelaben's observations about the house, having spent her childhood and the past eight years in the two-story home — which has been in her family for 69 years.
"The woodwork inside of it really can't be replaced," she said. "It was actually built in 1907."
In 1945, her parents purchased the home, where they raised Dill, her sister, and their five brothers.
"We used to all bunk downstairs and rented upstairs," she said.
More recently, Dill and her husband, Leon, moved back into her childhood home to take care of it after Dill's mother passed away.
"We've been there eight years," Leon Dill said, adding that the city purchased the house in January and the Dills moved out on July 14.
"It just cost a fortune to heat it and I was glad to move," Leon Dill said. "(Sally) had real emotions about it."
"It was kind of heartbreaking," Sally Dill said. "(There are) a lot of memories."
To bid on the houses at 747 Sixth Ave. W., visit www.GovDeals.com/realestate, and type "Hendersonville NC" into the search bar to locate the structures. Bidding closes 4 a.m. Thursday.

Here's a couple of grainline Moss skirts I made, adapting them for maternity wear. I live in Moss skirts so I'm pretty relieved that I've found a way to fit them around my bump :-) The way I did it would work for any denim skirt (even a thrifted one) or skirt with similar shape. There's a tutorial on my blog if you're interested.

Eagles lose heartbreaker 19-15 against Australia
LONDON, England – The Men's Eagles Sevens lost 19-15 in the final moments of the match against Australia at Twickenham Stadium.
There is a slim difference between the teams in the Eagles' pool, with South Africa defeating Australia 5-0 and then winning a last-second clash 17-14 against France.
Head Coach Alex Magleby made one change to his starting line-up, bringing in Brett Thompson for Colin Hawley.
Right from the start, Thompson made a break down the touchline, but Andrew Durutalo couldn't hang onto the pass. The Eagles then defended superbly with Nick Edwards on the wing, creating a valuable turn-over. Shalom Suniula saw a gap on the outside and switched nicely with Durutalo. The USA's leading try scorer - Zach Test - found a hard-running Thompson busting through the defense. But Thompson was ankle-tapped and with only two meters away from the try line had to side-step two more defenders to score an excellent try. The conversion attempt from Suniula went wide, with the Eagles leading 5-0.
The Wallabies attacked straight from the kick-off and were awarded a penalty inside the Eagles half for off-sides at the ruck. Allan Fa'alava'au collected a great inside pass and dove over to score for Australia. James Stannard added the extras, 7-5 to Australia.
A restart error gave the Eagles a penalty on the halfway line. After a few phases, Suniula exploited some space out wide and almost connected with Test. The result was an Australian line-out right near their own goal line. Thompson put his opposite number under pressure with a solid tackle and Matt 'the Polar Bear' Hawkins cleared out the attempted rucker. This clinical defence allowed an ever-present Thompson to scoop up the ball and slide over for his second try. Suniula's conversion hit the upright, but the Eagles now led 10-7 at half time.
The Eagles defense has been tremendous as of late, and with another turn-over, this time from Durutalo, the Eagles broke out from their own 22-meter with Thompson bringing Twickenham Stadium to it's feet by sprinting all the way to score. Thompson's hat trick put the Eagles up 15-7 at the start of the second half.
Blaine Scully - who replaced the fantastic Thompson - made an immediate impact with a high kick-off take. Australia managed to eventually take possession - but two excellent tackles - one from Edwards and the other from Scully, halted the attack. The pressure was too much and Ed Jenkins crossed the try line for the Wallabies. The conversion wasn't successful, and the Eagles led 15-14 with 60 seconds left to play.
Replacements Luke Hume and Hawley entered the game.
The final seconds were chaos as Australia mounted attack after attack, with plenty of tackles being made by the Eagles. With the ball over the try line, Hume desperately tried to get it out of bounds, but was given a yellow card for using his hands. Australian Peter Schuster dived over despite almost being tackled into touch by Hawkins. The try was awarded and Australia stole a 19-15 win at the death.
During their first pool match, the Eagles defeated France 19-17 in a thrilling comeback scoring their back-to-back tries. France then went on to lead South Africa 14-12 with 30 seconds on the clock. Cecil Africa scored a beautiful try to give the South Africans a 17-14 win.
The Eagles now face South Africa, last weekend's champions, in their final pool clash today.

Santa was good, real good! Kids got the old man a 22-250 caliber barrel for my Encore Pro Hunter. And, not just my barrel! They got a Bullberry barrel!
Then, Santa himself got me a Wildfire II predator call. Even though Santa was suffering from "beard envy" he still came through!
So now I have the gun and the call. Now I just have to learn to use them.
I thought I wouldn't be writing again before Christmas but then I got the message, "early deadline."
So I turned in one article for Monday, and now I'm writing for a Friday turn in! What happens in four days? Well, to be honest, not much!
I did see where Phil Robertson, the daddy of Duck Dynasty, was being dropped for his response to a question he was asked.
It seems like we've reached another level in our downward spiral!
As of Dec. 5, the Doe Run Company closed its doors, permanently.
So what's the big deal about one company closing up operations? Normally I'd say "What's new," it seems to be happening all the time.
First off, we moved the December 4-H Fishing Club meeting from the 19 to Dec. 12.
We're going to be making an ornament for your tree, so you'll want to be sure to attend!
Seems the predator hunting bug bit Terry Davis. Now we're still going duck hunting, but have accepted one hard fact: There just aren't that many ducks around here. At least not enough to support a bad duckaholic!
So what does one do in the absence of ducks? Seems the answer, in addition to rabbits, squirrels, quail, would be predators. Specifically coyotes!
Thanksgiving was a good day! Started with our traditional breakfast, sausage, egg, cheese sandwiches.
This has to be the best part of Thanksgiving, but don't tell the wife! Second only to the food, at least for opening day, is the actual duck hunt, and this year it was good.
After breakfast we headed to the Quack Shack.
Jason and C.C., the young guys, set about putting out a small spread of decoys, to include two "swimmers."
Bee Raikes, left, bagged a 9-point buck, and Tommy Joe Raikes, right, bagged a 10-point buck during gun season in Marion County.
It finally got cold! Now I know a lot of people aren't just real happy about that. And to be honest about it, the older I get, the less I enjoy it!
Age aside, cold weather signals the start of real hunting seasons. We've had squirrel season for a while now, as well as rabbit and quail. Even deer season wasn't just real "normal."
First, as stated, the weather was too warm and second, corn and bean crops weren't harvested yet, at least not where I hunted.
Donald Essex killed this 6x6 Bull Elk, green scored at approximately 317 inches, during archery season on Sept. 26 in Eastern Kentucky.
Zachary Essex, 10, killed his first buck, an 11-pointer, on Nov. 17. He is the son of Donald and Michelle Essex.

Sununu creates commission to bring public access to boating on Lake SunapeeBy MICHAEL COUSINEAU
New Hampshire Union Leader
September 19. 2017 4:08PM
CONCORD -- Gov. Chris Sununu on Tuesday established a commission to help decide the future of the controversial Wild Goose property along Lake Sunapee in Newbury.
"Trying to salvage a flawed and controversial idea that has not gone anywhere in over 20 years and that was left without funding by the Legislature is not a viable plan to increase public access on Lake Sunapee," the governor said in a statement. "My priority remains bringing forward a real proposal that will actually allow Granite Staters greater access to our Lake Sunapee."
The 15-member commission will prepare a report with recommendations by March 1. The commission will include at least six members from either Newbury, Sunapee or New London.
Opponents of building public boat access on that site were pleased with the commission.
"I'm looking forward to the resolution of the public access issues on the lake and I hope everybody comes to the table with an open mind," said Rep. Karen Ebel, D-New London. "That way, we can have a realistic, honest and open discussion of the related issues."
The Legislature failed to approve $2.1 million for the project on the 3.3-acre parcel. The Fish and Game Department spent about $415,000 over the past eight years, mostly on engineering and design work and permitting, according to Fish and Game Executive Director Glenn Normandeau.
Normandeau said he hadn't read the order yet establishing the Lake Sunapee Public Boat Access Development Commission.
"Whatever, he's my boss," Normandeau said, "so we'll go with whatever the program is."
Sununu's order cited "significant local opposition" and "extensive litigation" over the property.
"The commission shall research and evaluate both potential alternative opportunities for development of the Wild Goose property and potential alternative opportunities for expansion of public boat access at Lake Sunapee," read the governor's executive order.
Rep. Dan Wolf, R-Newbury, a project opponent, welcomed the commission.
"Maybe a very fresh perspective on looking at this would be beneficial," Wolf said. "I'm very optimistic that the commission can find an alternative to meet the needs of all parties."
Normandeau said his department worked with residents.
"We bent over backwards to try and take into account all of the criticism people had of the site," Normandeau said, saying the proposal was well designed and survived court challenges.
"But at the end of the day, we are where we are," he said.

England just want to be loved
James Stafford
March 4, 2011
England fly-half Toby Flood feels the pain © Getty Images
Despite a hugely successful start to their Six Nations campaign, England have shocked the sporting world by publicly admitting to overwhelming feelings of 'loneliness and isolation'.
England have begun this crucial Rugby World Cup year with a series of increasingly assured performances and, viewed externally, seem to be in fine fettle both on and off the field.
However, the RFU has revealed that its management, players and fans have been 'severely hurt' by recent disparaging comments from other nations and that the national game is suffering from 'depression'.
"Nobody likes us," said RFU spokesperson Jonathan Barker. "Let's not beat around the bush, they really don't. We may act like we revel in being hated, but we don't. At the end of the day when we take off the boots after a match we are just flesh and blood like everyone else. Sticks and stones hurt us, but so do nasty names."
Barker revealed that the sense of loneliness has become so severe that many players and RFU staff are undergoing some form of therapy to cope.
"We've been going around for years and years trying to keep our stiff upper lip," he said. "Making out we love being everyone's auld enemy, that we love to be the centre of everyone's bile and that it's an honour to be the team every one wants to beat.
"It's time we admitted that, sometimes, we just want to be loved. I mean, even our own press seem to enjoy disliking us. It's been hell since our 2003 World Cup win. The press have been so negative. How can we expect others to loves us when we can't even love ourselves?"
Barker revealed the decision to finally come clean to the public about the depression was made not long after French coach Marc Lièvremont gave his now-infamous pre-match interview in which he spoke of 'hating' the English.
"We acted like it was amusing when Lièvremont ripped into us," said one English player who wished to remain anonymous. "But it really upset me. I'm sorry Marc doesn't like our weather. And I wish we could have the same quality of life he claims the French and the Italians enjoy, but we can't. We don't have the climate and whatever else for that. But really, does he have to hate us? We aren't bad people are we? Can't we just be a 'World in Union' like that World Cup song? Can we at least strive for that? Is it too much to ask for a real brotherhood of rugby?"
The player went on to say that wins against Wales, Italy and France this past month have failed to dislodge the emptiness and despair that lingers over the English players in the dressing room after a match.
"Loneliness really is the most terrible poverty," said the player. "We feel so hollow in that dressing room, whether we win, lose or draw."
Top relationship expert and leading psychologist Dr. Andrew Richards claims that recent boastful statements by the likes of England fullback Ben Foden in which he spoke of Wales being like 'a little brother that needs to be put in his place' are simply masked cries for help.
"It's textbook stuff," he said. "In trying to mask their loneliness and sense of isolation they try to overcompensate by lashing out with lavish displays of defiance and anger. Why do you think Chris Ashton does those big swallow dives when he scores? He's simply covering up the team's collective feelings of alienation from the rest of the rugby world by strutting his stuff like a tough alpha male. Someone, anyone, really needs to come out and say that they like English rugby. Or at least say they don't hate it passionately."
The RFU are facing the problem head on and have hired a top consultancy firm to try to win back 'hearts and minds' with a 'Feel the Love Campaign'.
"We need to change ourselves, look in to the mirror," Richards said. "We must forgive and forget and try to see if by changing a few things perhaps our Celtic neighbours will be a little more friendly towards us. God knows I'm sick of sitting alone at IRB functions while the rest of the rugby world parties and jokes together on the other side of the room."
The 'Feel the Love' campaign is expected to kick off as soon as next month and may include the following:
Despite the public announcement from the RFU, no other national union has commented on the issue. Rumours are circulating that all non-English committee members of the IRB were having a 'cracking night out with mates' somewhere in Dublin and therefore unavailable for comment.

Toxic liquor kills 8 in southern Pakistan
KARACHI, Pakistan (AP) — Pakistani police say at least eight people in the port city of Karachi have died after consuming homemade liquor.
Police officer Mohammad Sarwar said Sunday that 14 people from Christian-dominated slums in the city, Pakistan's largest, were hospitalized after drinking toxic liquor late Saturday night. He said eight died and six others are being treated.
Sarwar said police have arrested two people for allegedly selling the toxic liquor and looking for those who distilled it illegally. He said the two suspects and all the victims were Christians.
Liquor poisoning is common in Pakistan, where the Muslim majority is forbidden to consume or sell alcohol. Non-Muslims can drink but many poor buy the cheapest homemade liquor, which is often adulterated.

Habana voted top South African player
Springbok wing Bryan Habana was named South African Rugby Player of the Year at a ceremony here on Thursday as he became only the second star ever to win the award more than twice.
The 29-year-old, hampered by an injured knee, limped onto the stage with the help of crutches to accept the award for the third time after having also been voted number one by the rugby media in 2005 and 2007.
His striking form helped his team, the Cape Town-based Western Province, win the Currie Cup last Saturday, while his seven tries for the national side in 2012 bring his national record tally to 47.
Habana's hat-trick against Australia in Pretoria in September brought the home team a 31-8 victory in the Rugby Championship.
He also was recognised for Try of the Year after bursting past the All Blacks defence to score in Dunedin, also in September.
"It's a very humbling experience," he said, accepting the award after doubt had previously been cast on his performances.
"I never really doubted myself but when these questions come about you just have to work harder," he added.
"Hopefully I'll leave the jersey in a better place than I received it."
Habana's three Player of the Year awards are second only to former Springbok fly-half Naas Botha. Now a television analyst with the Johannesburg-based SuperSport channel, Botha won the award four times.
Habana, whose first names were inspired by former Manchester United footballers Bryan Robson and Gary Bailey, received the accolade at the awards ceremony in a Cape Town International Airport hangar, five days after helping his side claim the Currie Cup title for the first time in 11 years.
Western Province's Eben Etzebeth, Sharks fly-half Patrick Lambie and teammates JP Pietersen and skipper Keegan Daniel were the other finalists.
The Sharks won the Team of the Year title after reaching both Currie Cup and Super 15 finals, with awards also for captain and loose forward Daniel (Super 15 Player of the Year), Pietersen (Players' Player of the Year) and coach John Plumtree.
New Springbok lock Etzebeth won the poll for Young Player of the Year after the 21-year-old's sterling performance in Tests against New Zealand, Australia, England and Argentina barely 18 months after playing in university leagues.

Downed wires spark brush fire that spreads to Manchester house
April 24. 2014 3:28PM
MANCHESTER - A brush fire started by a fallen power line on Hazelton Avenue was spread by this afternoon's high winds and caught a nearby house on fire, according to a release by Manchester Police spokesman Lt. Maureen Tessier.
A tree that fell into a utility pole at Hazelton Avenue and Faith Lane started the series of events that resulted in the house at 2 Faith Lane catching fire, according to Tessier.
Offiicer Scott Ardita said the tree fell on the west side of Hazelton and struck utility wires on the east side of the roadway, snapping a utility pole near the top cross bars.
Electrical sparks fell to brush below, igniting a heavily overgrown area on the east side of Hazelton Avenue, just north of Faith Lane. The fire spread to the rear of the house at 2 Faith Lane, eventually engulfing the single family home and igniting a small grilling propane tank at the rear of the home.
The brush fire also burned along the property line at 342 Hazelton Ave., damaging a utility trailer and bob house stored there. That home was not damaged, and officers evacuated some of the surrounding homes as Manchester firefighters got the brush fire and house fire under control.
Hazelton Avenue, between Faith lane and Devonshire Road as of mid-afternoon is closed to traffic as PSNH repairs the damaged pole. Traffic on Old Brown Avenue is restricted. Motorists are encouraged to seek alternative routes.

WASHINGTON (AP) — German insurer Allianz SE has agreed to pay about $12.4 million to settle U.S. civil charges of bribing Indonesian officials to win insurance contracts on big government projects.
The Securities and Exchange Commission announced the settlement Monday with Allianz. The SEC said Allianz's subsidiary in Indonesia made improper payments totaling $650,626 to obtain 295 insurance contracts, providing the company some $5.3 million in profits. The violations occurred from 2001 to 2008, the agency said.
The charges were brought under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which bars companies from bribing officials in other countries to get or retain business.
Munich-based Allianz neither admitted nor denied wrongdoing but agreed to refrain from future violations.
Allianz said in a statement that in recent years it has improved its controls against corruption.

We wrote here about Glen Johnson, the reporter for the Associated Press who has been assigned to cover Mitt Romney's presidential campaign. Johnson makes no secret of the fact that the detests Romney, and his articles on the candidate have been a succession of hit pieces. His most recent, this morning, is titled Analysis: Romney and Candor. Johnson's thesis is that Romney has a "candor gap," which is a nice way of calling him a liar.
But Johnson's evidence is remarkably thin:
When confronted with questions that might conflict with his message of the day or political record, the Republican candidate has shown a tendency to bob and weave or simply dismiss history. He has done so all year, providing an easy target for his opponents.
This past week, Romney did it again over questions about whether he was planning to air negative ads

The Rise of the Distributed Business
Network TCO-Under the Microscope
• Hardware diversity-As the number and variety of devices rises in a typical branch, the need for platform-related training increases-resulting in increased resource allocation toward personnel training and management.
• Configuration and support complexities-Intricate installations are burdensome to maintain; multiple hardware devices, software loads, and management systems cost much more than simple solutions. Identifying the root cause of a problem is difficult, resulting in longer mean times to repair and higher use of IT resources. Multiple devices in series are more susceptible to network outages. Downtime of a single device can affect the performance and availability of other devices. Cabling "spaghetti" increases the risk of human and mechanical error.
• Security and regulatory demands-The need for encryption and physical security of hardware and data is growing. Equipment diversity increases the risk of a security hole and raises the chances of a single device being left vulnerable to attack. To meet regulatory compliance, many organizations are trying to remove resources and reduce complexity in the branch office. Operating diverse appliances in the branch office tends to slow down this process.
• Conflicting performance criteria of equipment-In a multiple-device cluster, one device may affect the performance and productivity of others. For example, network configuration requirements for voice and video applications may be hampered by security configurations.
• Higher costs for incremental services-Many appliances and purpose-built devices have limited or no flexibility to accommodate changes in branch-office networking needs. Providing a single incremental service often means a full upgrade to previously installed equipment, resulting in expensive site visits and large incremental capital costs.
• Higher recurring expenses: power, carrier tariff, cooling, and rack space-In a small branch-office scenario, real estate and rack space, power, and cooling setup are often at a premium. Finding ways to reduce these recurring costs can improve the branch-office TCO.
• Multiple maintenance contracts-The more devices in a branch, the more maintenance contracts that must be purchased and renewed. Management of different vendor relationships and maintenance contracts can be time-consuming and confusing.
• Minimal synergies between applications-In an integrated device, traffic follows a single path that ensures synchronized, reliable delivery while protecting service integrity. In an unsynchronized multidevice scenario, devices compete to apply quality of service (QoS), security, and network policy, resulting in a less-efficient network and more points for administrative error.
• High upgrade costs-Because a large portion of the costs of branch upgrades is related to service visits, it is crucial to minimize the frequency and severity of any site visits. With diverse appliances, it gets costly to add additional capabilities without adding new hardware, perpetuating bloat and complexity in the branch office, and reducing the agility and response time of the IT support team.
Figure 1. Network Cost of Ownership
The Cisco Integrated Services Router
• Service coherency-Cisco Integrated Services Routers are designed and built with multiple concurrent services in mind, and they provide a higher degree of service integration and consistency than multiple independent devices.
• System support-Cisco offers complete accountability for deploying and operating an integrated services router because it approaches the network as a whole. There is a single point of support and fewer complications in terms of maintenance contracts and software licenses.
• Operational efficiency-With an integrated device, there are fewer devices to manage, and fewer user interfaces to deal with. Troubleshooting faults and errors is easier with integrated technology as compared to overlay appliances.
• Investment protection-The integrated approach of an integrated services router provides flexibility to evolve through system modularity or to take advantage of the power of Cisco IOS® Software to deploy new features.
The TCO Model
Figure 2. Lower CapEx with Cisco Integrated Services Router
• Direct costs-Network management and hardware management tools, annual maintenance contracts, facility costs (space, power, and cooling requirements), and implementation (deployment and provisioning) costs
• Indirect costs-Availability costs, such as planned downtime, unplanned downtime, loss of employee productivity, and revenue loss due to network downtime
Figure 3. Total Cost of Ownership
The Cost Benefit Equation
Table 1. Direct and Indirect Costs of Ownership
Cisco Integrated Services Router
Direct costs
Indirect costs
• Annual maintenance contract-A single annual maintenance contract from Cisco, incorporating contracts for hardware maintenance (Cisco SMARTnet® support) as well as maintaining software updates on all components of the integrated platform (Cisco Software Application Support plus Upgrades [SASU]) costs only one-third of the multiple contracts from diverse vendors.
• Facilities costs-Cisco Integrated Services Routers are a more environmentally friendly choice-owning an integrated device obviously results in remarkable savings related to facilities, power, and cooling requirements. A Cisco Integrated Services Router consumes only one-fifth the resources when compared to six independent appliances.
• Network management tools-In terms of network management tools and deployment costs-which form a major expenditure in the first year of owning the device-Cisco offers simple elegance apart from resulting in 66-percent cost savings. There is a direct relationship between the number of devices being managed and the number of engineers required to support them-more devices means more people.
• Downtime and outage-A comparison of the cost of outage as well as planned downtime results in striking savings for the customer owning a Cisco Integrated Services Router. It costs more than twice as much to own disparate devices daisy-chained together to operate in an integrated manner. The flexibility and high availability of the Cisco Integrated Services Router platform serves as an ideal backbone for a branch-office environment.
• Availability-In calculating associated costs such as employee productivity and revenue-related losses due to customer downtime, the Cisco Integrated Services Router is four times more available, resulting in outstanding cost savings and ROI on the platform.
Cost of Doing Nothing
The Roadmap to Lower TCO-Unification Breeds Success
Figure 4. Roadmap to Lower TCO
• Lower TCO of networking equipment-Lower TCO of networking equipment can be possible through this 5-step process-and the Cisco Integrated Services Router offers you the benefits of an integrated solution every step of the way. Optimization-Cisco Integrated Services Routers have the embedded intelligence to monitor and understand the characteristics of the network, and they can be used to maximize bandwidth usage and ensure the network resources are being properly utilized.
• Standardization-The flexibility of the Cisco Integrated Services Routers ensures they can be utilized used as a standard offering for both today's and tomorrow's needs.
• Integration-Cisco Integrated Services Routers can provide a variety of services, ranging from voice, security, and WAN optimization to integrated switching. This flexibility and service density allows IT organizations to minimize their branch networking devices and, therefore, the number of control points while maximizing the impact effect of each device.
• Automation-Cisco Integrated Services Routers have a broad suite of capabilities and tools to minimize deployment, monitoring, troubleshooting, and threat-mitigation costs.
• Utilization-The highly flexible architecture of the Cisco Integrated Services Routers allows them to adapt to changing branch-office service environments. With more than 100 modules and countless Cisco IOS Software features, the Cisco Integrated Services Routers provide maximum investment protection and allow you to minimize the need for a complete equipment upgrade.

The Need for 3G WWAN Backup
• Lower speeds-ISDN offers 128 kbps, but this is ineffective and expensive because of its lower bandwidths. Enterprises have to choose from a limited number of applications that can be operational in a backup scenario, seriously affecting branch productivity and revenue generation.
• The backup connection may share the conduit with the primary connection-In this case, if the primary connection goes down, the backup goes down too. Broken or damaged cable and fiber are caused by a variety of situations, and can occur during moves or maintenance. Other situations that can also affect performance is service provider network equipment failure and faulty network equipment.
• Terrestrial disruptions-In case of natural disasters, there is a high probability of outage due to breakage and damage to the cables and conduits.
3G WWAN Backup
• Service installation and monthly service costs-Based on service provider costs in North America, in this comparison of a traditional ISDN backup solution to a 3G WWAN option based on integrated services routers, the integrated services router-based solution costs less than half the expense incurred to own and operate traditional terrestrial backup lines of similar bandwidth. This advantage is huge because recurring service pricing incurred on a monthly basis per branch can accumulate on the enterprise balance sheet to affect profitability. Any reduction of this recurring cost can add up to a sizeable savings for a business.
• Employee productivity loss-A comparison of cost of outage as well as planned downtime results in striking savings for the customer owning an integrated services router-based 3G WWAN solution, in terms of both higher bandwidth and greater availability due to WAN diversity. This productivity loss also includes lost data and rework costs associated with returning business applications to operational status after a network outage. The integrated services router-based solution is twice as available, resulting in higher productivity.
• Revenue and opportunity loss-In calculating associated costs such as revenue-related losses as well as opportunity losses due to customer downtime, the integrated services router-based 3G WWAN solution offers twice the availability, directly resulting in outstanding opportunities for revenue generation and return on investment on the platform.

When I power on, I get the sad face and a message that says "Boot failed." I looked around and followed the directions on this page: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activated_Update
I downloaded the filesystem image and fs.zip and placed them on a clean 4GB USB flash drive, that was formatted FAT32. I put this in the OLPC's USB slot, and then booted while holding down all the game keys. I then got this message:
- Code: Select all
Trying disk:\fs.zip
Filesystem image found - Signature valid
Can't open NAND FLASH device
I can type things after the "ok" but it doesn't appear to recognize any basic linux commands. I tried this in each of the 3 USB slots, and I got the same message every time.
I then tried placing the same files on a clean formatted SD card (also FAT32 format.) I tried booting with all of the same keys held down, but it fails to recognize the card (it looks on the USB drive, the SD card, and the internet, before finally arriving at the sad face "boot failed" screen.) I then tried again with a different SD card, but I got the same result.
I'm beginning to think that the internal flash memory is fried. If that is the case, is it possible to fix myself? If not, can I ship this in for factory service? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Searching for Willis Hughs parents
I am searching for the orgin of my great grandfather, Willis Hughes.
He was born in S. C. (?) about 1820. He appears in the 1850 census for Macon County, Georgia along with his wife, Martha and two children, Rebecca and Caroline. His brother James Patrick and family live nearby. Willis appears in the 1860 census in Pickens County, Alabama. Additional children, James Patrick (my grandfather), Betsy, John F. and Polly are shown in this record. There is also a Francis and Eizabeth Hughs living in the household. Another son, William Henry was born about 1863. Willis enlisted in the Confederate army (Co D, 41st Alabama Infantry Regiment on Oct 18, 1863. He participated in the Tennessee campaign and was wounded at Petersburg, Va. on Nov 18, 1864. He died at General Hospital, Petersburg, Va. on Jan 8, 1865. He is buried in a mass grave at Blandford Church, Petersburg, Va.
Does anyone have any information on Willis Hughes parents or place of birth?

There is a significant difference in the responses of oil and gold to the media frenzy triggered by a comment by Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski on Tuesday, Aug. 5. "There are several battalion groups there. There is a large concentration of military hardware there. These things are being done just to exert pressure. Or to enter," he said. There was nothing new in his comments, but nonetheless, in the ensuing furor, gold took off. The annotated tick chart of gold futures shows its rise since that time.
Please click here for an annotated tick chart of gold.
Gold has traditionally been a hedge against geopolitical instability. It is understandable that the trigger-happy momo crowd was influenced by the media frenzy and bought gold. However, oil behaved very differently. Take a look at the annotated tick chart of oil futures since Sikorski's comment.
Please click here for an annotated chart of oil.
Russia is the third-largest producer of oil in the world behind Saudi Arabia and the United States, producing over 10.5 million barrels of oil per day. About 15% of the world's oil exports are from Russia. The country is also the second-largest producer of natural gas after the United States. Europe is highly dependent on Russian oil and gas.
At almost every other key junction in the Ukraine conflict, oil prices, as well as gas prices, in Europe have spiked. As the chart shows, oil did not spike nearly as much as gold. Wednesday, with Department of Energy inventory data out of the way, oil tried to rally in sympathy with gold, but the rally met with heavy selling, as shown on the chart.
It is instructive to look beyond the tick charts of this week and look at a comparison of oil and gold. The following linked chart compares the SPDR Gold Trust ETF GLD, -0.26% with the United States Oil Fund ETF USO, +0.14% since the recent peak in oil.
Please click here for an annotated chart comparing gold to oil.
The chart shows that oil has underperformed gold by over 10.5% in a short time.
Clearly, the oil market does not think that there will be an invasion of Ukraine by Russia in the near future. This is entirely opposite to the reason for the momo crowd buying gold.
Who is right, oil or gold?
In this corner, based on the algorithms of ZYX Change Method, oil is most likely correctly predicting that there will be no full scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia in the near future. As the media frenzy dies down, gold is likely to pull back.
Disclosure: Subscribers to The Arora Report have positions in oil and gold. Subscribers may undertake new trades or exit existing trades in gold and oil without further notice.

12.21.12Tiny glass beads embedded in the road marking material reflect the light from headlights in dark or wet conditions. This is why the markings are still so easy to see in the dark, the fog and the rain. Thanks to their structure, the lines and surfaces are extremely durable as well.
Various systems can be used to apply these kinds of structured, three-dimensional markings to roads. One of these is cold-plastic marking based on Degaroute reaction resin from Evonik Industries. Degaroute has proven itself in this application for more than 50 years, the quality of the product having long produced impressive results. Lately, however, it is not just safety but the environmental aspect that is playing a more important role. Increasing traffic volumes call for more and more markings—but not at the expense of the environment.
For this reason, Evonik compared its Degaroute-based road markings with three other common road marking systems: hot-spray plastic, solvent-based paint and water-based paint. The specialty chemicals company studied all four systems as part of a comprehensive life cycle assessment (LCA). An LCA is a systematic tool that analyzes the influence a product has on the environment over its entire lifespan. It takes account of the entire value-added chain, from the raw materials, through production and application, to disposal or recycling.
In this case, Evonik studied a two-lane, one-kilometer section of roadway equipped with a middle stripe and two edge stripes. The assessment period was ten years—after this time roads normally have to be resurfaced. Depending on the technology used, the markings have to be renewed at different times in this period.
According to the results of the LCA study, cold-spray plastic with Degaroute is far superior to the other technologies. It obtained the best results, thanks to its longevity in particular. The study showed that, more than anything, the service life of a marking is key to its environmental impact. And in this respect, the solvent- and water-based systems came off second-best. Over the period of the study, the solvent-based paint had to be reapplied ten times to obtain the marking, while Degaroute-based cold-spray plastic had to be reapplied four times. Hot- spray plastic did similarly well in terms of longevity, but it consumed more material.
This high durability is primarily a result of the glass beads contained in the marking material. According to the LCA study, durability is also the deciding factor for CO2 emissions and, therefore, the global warming potential of the individual systems. Hot-spray plastic has a 50 percent higher warming potential than Degaroute-based cold-spray plastic with glass beads, and paint systems are roughly 80 percent higher. In comparison, the application step accounts for a small percentage of the global warming potential—with the exception of hot-spray plastic, which has to be applied in a melted state at high temperatures, and requires the use of gas burners.
The LCA study was conducted in accordance with ISO 14040 and critically reviewed by independent experts from industry, science and research. In early 2012, the system was certified to ISO 1404

We have become huge fans of Jerusalem Post editorial page editor Saul Singer. His new book — Confronting Jihad: Israel's Struggle & The World After 9/11 — collects his mostly war-related Post editorials and columns from the period 1997 to mid-2003. Despite the instant judgment demanded by daily opinion journalism, Singer's work not only withstands review, it illuminates in retrospect. It is a remarkable book made all the more important by the fact Israel and the United States now face approximately the same enemy.
Reading the book one gleans personal facts about Singer himself. He is a native New Yorker who emigrated to Israel after college. The pieces collected in Confronting Jihad occasionally allude to the death of his brother while serving in the Israeli Defense Forces; he pleads with Israeli politicians not to make the ultimate sacrifice of so many Israelis a mockery.
It is a feeling that runs deeply through Israel, a small country whose survival has been under constant attack ever since its founding. Few countries pay the price for poor statesmanship so dearly or so immediately as does Israel.
Martial sacrifice is ubiquitous in the country. Turn to the dedication page of historian B. Netanyahu's lifework — his authoritative history of the Inquisition, The Origins of the Inquisition in Fifteenth-Century Spain — and one finds testimony to the "unrelieved grief" of the author, the father of Jonathan Netanyahu (Benjamin's older brother), who was the leader of the Entebbe rescue mission and the only Israeli to fall in the operation. Professor Netanyahu dedicates the book to the memory of Jonathan.
Today's Wall Street Journal features Saul Singer's column on the prisoner exchange that Israel has agreed to with Hizbullah. Unfortunately, the Journal has not made it available on its OpinionJournal site. Here's Singer's column:
After 17 years, it was not a phone call we expected. And not from a reporter. But on Monday night the call came: "How do you feel about your brother's killer being released?"
My brother, Alex Singer [pictured above], was born in White Plains, N.Y., on Sept. 15, 1962. After graduating from Cornell, he moved to Israel in 1984, and eventually became an officer in the army's Givati Brigade. On Sept. 15, 1987, he was dropped by helicopter on a rough hilltop in southern Lebanon. It was his 25th birthday. Night had just fallen, and Alex's unit was tasked with intercepting terrorists on their way toward the Israeli border.
The soldiers, sent to ambush the terrorists, were ambushed themselves. Ronen Weisman, Alex's commander, was hit first, leaving Alex in charge. Running under fire with a medic, Alex reached Ronen's body, and was shot and killed. Pvt. Oren Kamil ran to help his fallen commanders and was killed on the same spot.
After the battle, one terrorist was found wedged among some rocks with a narrow window pointing toward the spot where all three soldiers died. Only now have we become aware that Anwar Yassin had been in an Israeli jail for the past 17 years, sentenced to serve until 2017. We learn that Yassin became well known in Lebanon and, at the age of 36, can expect a hero's welcome.
For all these years, none of us thought about Alex's killer. We never dreamed that any prisoner release would touch us personally, forcing us to address a side of the equation that had been deliberately shunted aside.
We had immersed ourselves in Alex the soldier-poet, artist and writer; publishing a book of his art and letters, creating a Web site, letting the unselfconscious narration of his own life affect so many who never knew him. It may seem odd to those who have not been through it, but Alex's killer was not worth wasting a moment's thought on.
Perhaps this was a defense mechanism, because we knew that if we let ourselves think about the person who killed Alex, we would become obsessed with avenging what we lost. And if we did not feel such passion for justice, its lack seemed a betrayal of Alex.
Yet our reaction seems to be a common one among bereaved families. "It doesn't matter to us," Oren Kamil's parents said, "[the killer's] imprisonment does not lessen our pain."
As common as the passion for revenge is in film and fiction, real life doesn't seem to work that way. I imagine I might feel differently if Alex had been killed by a terrorist on a bus. But maybe not. The loss simply crowds out other emotions.
Yet it is difficult to escape the seeming imbalance of this prisoner deal, in which Alex's killer is among 35 prisoners from Arab states, one German caught trying to carry out a terrorist attack for Hizbullah, and 400 Palestinian prisoners — in exchange for one man, Elkhanan Tenenbaum, and the bodies of three Israeli soldiers.
To muddy the waters further, Mr. Tenenbaum, a former army officer, is reported to have been kidnapped while pursuing an illicit drug or weapons deal, and his family expects that he will be under investigation when he returns to Israel.
Like revenge, the calculus that pits the freedom of one suspect Israeli against the potential victims of released killers is too overwhelming to contemplate. Polls show Israelis evenly split between compassion for one concrete man, and concern for the unknown payment due.
What is known is that, despite the hero's welcome Yassin will receive, the value placed by this deal on his freedom is less than 1/400th of that of one Israeli. There is perhaps no greater measure of the value Israelis attach to life than their willingness to risk their lives for another. Indeed, that is how my brother lived — and how he died.
UPDATE: Saul Singer has written us from Jerusalem asking that we bring to your attention Alex Singer's book Building a Life: The Story of an American Who Fell Defending Israel Told in His Letters, Journals and Drawings. Saul writes: "My real goal in all this is to get people to read Alex's book, which moves everyone who reads it, and helps us continue his life and work."
Amazon has an extensive entry on the paperback edition of the book. Click here for the link. Dennis Prager writes of the book: "Not only was Alex Singer a great human being, he was also a gifted writer and artist. These letters, diary entries and drawings are quite simply riveting."

Miniature Tigers stopped by Union Transfer on Friday night and put on a show for their record books, their self-reported best show ever in Philly. I had seen Miniature Tigers two years ago when they opened for fun. on their Some Nights tour, but since then had forgotten how much fun their live show is, and how enthusiastic and grateful they are for all the reception they get.

Class B Basketball is officially up and running for the 2013-14 season, and that was on display Thursday night at the Devils Lake Sports Center.
Class B Basketball is officially up and running for the 2013-14 season, and that was on display Thursday night at the Devils Lake Sports Center.
Eight teams competed in the annual Ramsey County Tournament, and after yesterday's games, four are moving on to the semifinal round: Four Winds-Minnewaukan, Benson County, North Star and Rolette-Wolford, all four of which will compete this evening for a place in Saturday night's championship game.
The losing teams -- Devils Lake JV, Munich-Starkweather, Dakota Prairie and Lakota-Edmore, will also compete today in the other side of the bracket for a chance to claim third place on Saturday.
Four Winds-Minnewaukan vs. Devils Lake JV
When playing against the No. 2 Class B team in the state, it's safe to say that all Devils Lake players and coaches came into the game knowing that a win would be quite the accomplishment.
As it turned out, a win was far too daunting a task for the youthful Firebirds to achieve as they fell victim to the second-ranked Indians, 62-35.
Four Winds-Minnewaukan scored more than 17 points in each of the first three quarters before taking their foot off the pedal in the fourth. At that point in the game, the Indians already led by more than 30 points.
Trayvon McKay led the way for the Indians once again, just as he did in the Grafton game, finishing with 22 points, which accounted for over a third of the team's total offensive output.
The only other scorer to finish in double figures was Jason LaRock, who finished with 10 points of his own.
Freshman Jacob Mertens led the Firebirds with seven points.
Benson County vs. Munich-Starkweather
Following what was a lopsided opwning game, the Benson County Wildcats submitted an equally dominant display in their first round game, defeating Munich Starkweather with relative ease, 60-34.
The Magic Storm struggled offensively all night, failing to score double digit points in all quarters except for the fourth, where they scored 11.
Benson County had no trouble scoring for the most part, the only exception being in the third quarter, where it took the team nearly five minutes to record their first points of the half. They went on to score 13 that quarter, most of which came with less than three minutes on the clock.
Patrick Frise led all scorers for the Wildcats as he recorded 15 points. Kaleb Westad and Dagan Arendt also had productive nights from the field, finishing with 14 and 10 points, respectively, for Benson County.
Lucas Dick led Munich-Starkweather with 11 points.
North Star vs. Dakota Prairie
The third game of the day saw North Star matched up against Dakota Prairie, and the Bearcats were the team to come out on top.
Led by a 23-point effort from freshman Johnny Heisler, North Star defeated the Knights by 16 despite holding just a five-point advantage at the half. Heisler's 23 points, punctuated by five three-point buckets, was the best individual scoring output by any player in the tournament so far.
Alex Weston and Christian Kvilvang also chipped for the Bearcats, scoring 13 and 19 points respectively.
Jon Lund scored 16 points to lead Dakota Prairie.
Lakota-E vs. Rolette-W
The final first-round game between Lakota-Edmore and Rolette-Wolford was perhaps the most entertaining to watch. It certainly finished with the most combined points.
In the end, the Comets came out the victors, winning by 10, 68-58, to advance to the semifinal round.
It wasn't easy for them, though, particularly in the second half as the Raiders shrunk the 20-point Rolette-Wolford halftime to lead to as little as seven points in the second half. But in the end, the Comet offensive proved too much for Lakota-Edmore to handle.
Casey Julson led the Comets with 20 points. Lakota-Edmore's Robb Kuchar led all scorers in the game with 22.
Today's games
Devils Lake JV vs. Munich-Starkweather -- 3 p.m.
Dakota Prairie vs. Lakota-Edmore -- 4:30 p.m.
Four Winds-Minnewaukan vs. Benson County -- 6 p.m.
North Star vs. Rolette-Eolford -- 7:30 p.m.

Hi, I am a mum of 4 and have always breastfed, however my youngest now 9 weeks is not gaining.
He was on antibiotics at a week old for an ear infection, I was also on anti's for a uterine infection. His poo went green and he was pooing about 10 times a day.
He also throws up alot of his feeds. Docs have said he has reflux. If I eat nothing but chicken potatoes and veg his poo goes yellow but still about 10 times a day and still throwing up.
He's taking perscribed antacids which seems to have helped with the screaming and squirming. Bit still throwing up and pooing.
Have just started combined feeding with anti reflux formula. He has breast feed first then top up on formula. The more formula he takes the less he is sick and he's only pooing 1-2 a day.
Is my milk making ill? Should I just switch to formula?
Many thanks

Hi, welcome to North County, we always need new fun players here. Poinsettia Park is a great venue and lots of good tennis. People meet there every Monday, Wed and Friday for round-robin play on the upper courts by the east parking lot - play usually starts at around 4:00 PM so you just have to show up, introduce yourself and start wacking the ball. I might be playing there this coming Monday so we could hit then. Also, there is the San Diego Tennis Network that plays every Saturday at the Rancho Valencia Resort which is a lot of fun as well. Drop me a note back and we can set something up - Happy 4th

Good old HTTP has been around a while. It's been like a quiet warrior, a protocol that enabled the Internet to function the way it does today, yet without too many people really thinking much about it. In brief, the Hypertext Transfer Protocol makes sure that all those bits and bytes get from servers to your computer in one piece and in the right order, not that anyone notices.
Nobody even puts http:// at the front of URLs anymore. Browsers insert this automatically for anyone who types in a Web address. But it, and its more secure HTTP Secure cousin, are there on almost every Web address in the world.
I think I first encountered HTTP in 1991, close to when it was released. It was still called Version .9 back then. It didn't get an upgrade to Version 1.0 until 1996 and was tweaked again in 1999 to Version 1.1. Not a lot has been done with it since then. It works and seems to do well, and people are not really into fixing things that aren't broken.
Except Google of course. Google doesn't think HTTP is such a hot property. It is working on a new protocol called SPDY (short for speedy) that the company says should replace the venerable HTTP.
90 percent of secure HTTPS sites are vulnerable, study finds
Google is trying to make this a standard protocol, and the group working on HTTP 2.0 is said to be considering implementing SPDY into its build. Because SPDY works on the back end, users probably won't notice much of a difference, other than increased speeds.
On the one hand, I think speeding up the Internet by trimming some of the fat in transactions is a good thing. On the other, I don't like how Google owns the SPDY protocol. And the company has not stated that it wants to make it freely available to everyone.
I also know that Microsoft is also working on its own version of a faster HTTP protocol. These titans never work too well together, and I wonder if this might lead to a new format war. I still remember how Internet pages looked different when viewed in Netscape and Explorer, and even today, they are not completely universal on every browser, as was intended when the Web was created.
I wouldn't be so worried about SPDY or other experimental protocols if companies had historically worked together to make the Internet a better place. But that has almost never been the case, as my colleague Greg Crowe pointed out earlier this week when he wrote about the latest wireless format wars.
I'm all for improving HTTP, but it's too important to mess with willy-nilly, or to open up a bunch of competing standards so that the Web ceases to be universal. Let's hope that doesn't happen, but I won't hold my breath.

I hear it already, Google's reply "We did not intend to collect ALL your personal information".
A correction:
Code for client and server has been available under open-source licenses from day 1 of its release.
The intent has always been to be open and have open participation.
Today, Firefox implements it, for instance, and code has been released for Apache among other servers.
SPDY replaces some parts of HTTP, but mostly augments it. At the highest level of the application layer, the request-response protocol remains the same. SPDY still uses HTTP methods, headers, and other semantics. But SPDY overrides other parts of the protocol, such as connection management and data transfer formats to reduce latency.
This is what has been built so far:
A high-speed, in-memory server which can serve both HTTP and SPDY responses efficiently, over TCP and SSL. The code will be released as open source in the near future. A modified Google Chrome client which can use HTTP or SPDY, over TCP and SSL. The source code is at http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/net/spdy/.
For those interested in reading the details, see http://dev.chromium.org/spdy/spdy-whitepaper
Microsoft has kept the internet a mess by trying to force everyone into using thier browser. I have noticed lately if your using internet explorer and go to some google sites, that you get an error that your browser is incompatible. Kinda funny. Not the way to do it, but I dont blame them. I think that if everyone would sit around the table that google would be happy to work with everyone. But we all know Microsoft would sit at the table work with everyone and then take the code and spin it thier way and lock everyone out....so goes the wars. I agree that google needs to put it out for everyone, but it is sounding like they are turning a corner that we all hoped they would not turn.
