It's Nellie we're talking about, E-Man. I would agree with any other coach... just not with Nellie.
yeah, like i said, it probably wouldnt happen. i guess as a coach myself, i try to see possible lineups and matchups that work instead of intentionally going for mismatches.

Captain's ReportChoose Your Adventure with Vectra's 192 Fish and SkiBy Capt. Rob SmithThe is a cross-over design with the big trolling motor and fish finder on the bow, but she still had the lines of a typical ski boat. With just a few simple changes you can leave the fishing gear behind for a great day of cruising and fishing, or load it on, pick up the bait and catch dinner.At the BowUp on the foredeck, the 192 has a Lowrance X-50 D6 so you can keep up with the bottom and find the stealthy fish. Next to that is a Minn Kota PD55 trolling motor with tethered foot control. Converting the bow, you can add a casting chair pedestal and bring one of the aft jump seats up to be a casting chair. The cup holders in front of the windshield are within reach to keep your coffee or cold beverage ready. A few changes and you have room for two to relax. A locker in the bin under the bow cushion fit an anchor and rode. The trolling motor batteries are tucked into the side lounger benches up front. The full-framed wrap-around windshield protects you well from spray and chilly breezes and has a wide walk-through to get back to the cockpit.Cross-Over FeaturesIn the cockpit, there is a large sole locker to store all your skis and extra gear. The locker is painted inside and has a sturdy lid. The edges seemed a little sharp to me, so I would round them off to protect little fingers that may try to open it. Both the helm and companion seats are comfortable and feature slide and swivel adjustments. There is plenty of space to keep your favorite lotions and sunglasses handy in the side pockets and the safety grab bars give the timid something to hang on to when it's rough. For those who like to be their own DJ, a MP3 jack is in the side panel to hook up your iPod or MP3 player through the stereo. The stereo is mounted in the upper glove box and the lower glove box is large enough to store wallets and other important items. Flipping the lid down you find it two cup indents to hold your drinks at anchor. Although the speakers are mounted in the foot wells, the sound still seems to be ok. Over at the helm, you have a typical ski boat set up with padded three-spoke sport wheel with rack-and-pinion steering. Analog gauges are supplemented by a digital depth gauge and lighted rocker switches.Seating & StorageThe cockpit has room across the back with two fold-down seats that can be lifted out and put on casting pedestals in the front or back. A bench seat in the center adds more storage space for tackle and lines. Cargo net storage pockets at the back are handy for ski gloves and/or fishing tools. Drink holders are on either side for the jump seat riders. On the port side of the aft deck is a livewell right next to the casting seat location so it is easily reached while fishing. Underneath the deck was a 4.3L MerCruiser on our test model. Taking advantage of the engine heat is a bin on the starboard side where you can keep the wet lines and life jackets. On the stern is a LED light to light up the swim platform, concealed three-step swim ladder and a JBL stereo remote to control the tunes from the water on our test ride.SpecificationsThe 192 Fish and Ski measures 19'2" length overall and has a wide, stable beam width of 98". She weighs in at about 1700lbs without the engine and carries 37 gallons of fuel to keep you running all day long.PerformanceI tested her in some pretty stiff winds and finally found a cove with some protection. She handled quite smoothly with good turning radius and no cavitation. Around the docks she worked just as well. I found her top speed to be about 44.8 mph at 4800rpm with a cruise speed of 37.8rpm at 4000rpm. At cruise, she should deliver 134 miles on a full tank. She is on plane in 4 seconds and up to 30 mph in 7.8 seconds. Obviously, with a top revolution rate of only 4800rpm, some adjustments in propeller may be necessary, but I was very impressed with her zip and pep.Whether you like to wet the hook or hook a wake, you are going to have a ton of fun with the Vectra 192 Fish and Ski!
Test Result Highlights
- Top speed for the Vectra 192 Fish and Ski is 44.8 mph (72.1 kph), burning 13.2 gallons per hour (gph) or 49.96 liters per hour (lph).
- Best cruise for the Vectra 192 Fish and Ski is 27.6 mph (44.4 kph), and the boat gets 4.37 miles per gallon (mpg) or 1.86 kilometers per liter (kpl), giving the boat a cruising range of 146 miles (234.96 kilometers).
- Tested power is 1 x 220-hp 4.3L MerCruiser.

Opcon, the energy and environmental technology Group, and Tricorona, a specialist trader in environment-related market instruments, have signed a partnership agreement concerning exports of Opcon's energy and environmental technology that help reduce climate impact.
The carbon credits generated via the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) established under the Kyoto Protocol will be bought and managed by Tricorona.
The partnership agreement focuses on the sale of Opcon Powerbox and Opcon's technology for generating carbon-free electricity from waste heat. Marketing efforts have already started on the Chinese market, where there are major environmental problems and industry generates large amounts of waste heat. The partnership also covers other markets and more Opcon products that reduce climate impact where joint marketing is planned to start up later this year.
"Through additional financing based on the CDM, we can help Opcon to reach new customers around the world. With financing from the CDM scheme, this type of new, state-of-the-art environmental technology from Sweden can be made available to developing nations who are expanding their energy systems," says Marco Berggren, head of Tech Transfers at Tricorona.
Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), is a flexible mechanism within the Kyoto Protocol and complements the effort of industrial countries in reducing their own emissions. Investment in new technology for reduced climate impact in most developing countries generates carbon credits within the system. In China, for example, between 0.6 and 1.1 carbon credits are generated per MWh produced from renewable energy, depending where investment takes place in the country.
Opcon Powerbox is Opcon's proprietary product for producing new carbon-free electricity from waste heat at temperatures as low as 55°C. A standard Opcon Powerbox is at 0.74 MW and can be installed in large process-industry plants, power stations, and larger diesel engines or, with adaptation, onboard larger ships.
Opcon has operations in Sweden, China, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Denmark. There are around 400 employees.

POSTED: Apr 2, 2013 11:31 PM ET
UPDATED: Apr 8, 2013 12:29 PM ET
LOS ANGELES (AP) — When Shaquille O'Neal visited the Forum during the summer he joined the Los Angeles Lakers, general manager Jerry West encouraged him to look up at the retired jerseys hanging above the court.
"He said, `You can be as great as these guys,"' O'Neal recalled.
Shaq's Jersey Retired
West's prediction is finally official. Shaq joined Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, George Mikan, West and the rest of the Lakers' greats Tuesday night when the club retired his No. 34 jersey in a halftime ceremony.
Shaq's Jersey Retired
West's prediction is finally official. Shaq joined Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, George Mikan, West and the rest of the Lakers' greats Tuesday night when the club retired his No. 34 jersey in a halftime ceremony.
"I just wish Dr. Buss was here to see this, to enjoy this joyous occasion," O'Neal said of Lakers owner Jerry Buss, who died in February. "I always hoped and prayed it would come. It was a dream come true."
Although O'Neal rarely finds himself speechless, he's thrilled to receive the honor he first imagined back in 1996 when he chose the Lakers. O'Neal's yellow jersey with white numerals was unveiled to a standing ovation, hanging next to Magic Johnson's No. 32.
"It gets me real emotional," O'Neal said before the game. "Growing up in Newark, New Jersey, and my father teaching me about the game, always mentioning Wilt Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and telling me when I was a young medium juvenile delinquent that, `If you do things right, son, maybe one day you can be as great as those guys."'
There's no longer any doubt O'Neal ranks among the greatest centers in basketball history. The NBA's sixth-leading career scorer played eight of his 19 seasons with the Lakers, winning three championships and reaching four NBA finals during his basketball prime.
Although O'Neal began his career in Orlando and played for four more teams after leaving Los Angeles, the 15-time All-Star says he considers Los Angeles his NBA home.
"I did most of my damage here, won most of my championships here, had most of my fun here," he said. "Even though I got one in Miami, it was fun, but we had three great ones here, three in a row. If I'm good enough to get into the Hall of Fame, I'll definitely go in as a Laker."
Kobe Bryant was in the locker room during halftime of the Lakers' game against Dallas, but he filmed a video tribute to kick off O'Neal's ceremony, calling him "the most gifted physical specimen I've ever seen play this game.
"What you've meant to the city has been absolutely historical, what we've done together," Bryant added. "I know you've played for other organizations, but you'll always be truly remembered for playing for one."
O'Neal's eight years alongside Bryant are among the most tumultuous and successful times in the team's history. They overcame initial struggles to win three straight titles from 2000-02 with the arrival of coach Phil Jackson, who returned to Staples on Tuesday for O'Neal's ceremony.
O'Neal and Bryant eventually split in 2004 after numerous personal and professional clashes, and their verbal sparring continued through Bryant's fifth championship in 2010. O'Neal insists any feud is long squashed, chalking it all up to posturing and mutual motivation.
"We've talked a lot since our playing days," O'Neal said. "There's two different kinds of dislike. There's an athletic dislike, and there's a real dislike. We never had a real dislike. We had a million good times and a thousand bad times. ... If I had it all over to do again, would I do it different? Probably not."
Jackson got his own attention while attending what was likely his first Lakers game since walking away from the club in 2011 - and the sellout crowd clearly would rather see him back in the seat currently occupied by Mike D'Antoni. Jackson sat in the second row next to his fiancee, Jeanie Buss, and received several "We Want Phil!" chants of increasing intensity during the ceremony.
"I want to thank you for your dedication and your leadership and the hard work that you put in," Jackson said to O'Neal.
Although he retired in 2011, O'Neal still is making an imprint on the Lakers - specifically on the psyche of Dwight Howard, their new franchise center.
O'Neal's pointed criticism of Howard in his new job as a television pundit has been an intriguing subplot to the latest Lakers big man's rough debut season. O'Neal didn't back off Howard on his special night, saying Howard should try to average 28 points and 10 rebounds per game if he hopes to be taken seriously as an elite center.
"We don't really have a relationship, but I'm just doing to him what the others did to me," O'Neal said of Howard, recalling Abdul-Jabbar calling him "an OK player" before he had any rings.
"I think it was Kareem's challenge to me to step it up," O'Neal added. "I'm not criticizing (Howard). I'm just issuing a challenge. I think I have the right to say, `You have to average 28-10 in order to get a championship.' I just see a kid with a lot of talent."
When asked if he empathized with Howard's struggles to get healthy after offseason back surgery, O'Neal said: "My father was a military drill sergeant, and his motto was, `If you can walk, you can play.' I wish there was a time I was injury-free when I played. I empathize with his pain, but no pain, no gain. He has the potential to be one of the greatest big men ever, but he has to want it."
O'Neal's celebration included profuse thanks to the Buss family, several former coaches and Lakers employees. He name-checked nearly everybody who worked for the Lakers during his eight-year tenure, even extending a detailed thanks to former assistant coach Bill Bertka.
"The only regrets I have are missing 200 games and missing 5,000 free throws," O'Neal said. "Other than that, I had fun, did it my way. Made a lot of friends, made a lot of enemies. It was all fun."

Difference between revisions of "Diving the Cape Peninsula and False Bay/MV Katsu Maru"
Latest revision as of 06:53, 6 January 2012
The dive site M.V. Katsu Maru is a recent wreck in the Hout Bay area on the Atlantic seaboard of the Cape Peninsula, near Cape Town in the Western Cape province of South Africa.
In the middle of the mouth of Hout Bay, About parallel to and 30m to the west of the wreck of the M.V. Aster
This site is in a Marine Protected Area (2004). A permit is required.
The Japanese trawler "Katsu Maru #25" struck an unidentified object and was holed on the port side. While under tow to Hout Bay the vessel flooded and it sank in the bay on 7th August 1978.
Maximum depth about 28m meters in the scour at the bow and stern. The highest point of the wreck is at about 21.3m depth.
Visibility will vary from pretty murky at about 2m to really good at over 20m. Good visibility is more likely after a strong south easterly wind, which may cause a local upwelling of clear bottom water from the open ocean nearby. The good visibility usually only lasts a few days, after which plankton bloom may reduce it again, particularly towards the surface.
The hull is about 40m long, and roughly 9 or 10m beam, part of which is buried in the sand. The wreck lies on its starboard side heeled at slightly more than 90°, imbedded in the flat sand bottom at about 27m depth. The bow points towards approximately magnetic south east. There is moderate scouring at bow and stern, usually to about 29m maximum, depending on the tide. The superstructure deck appears to be buried almost to halway, and the funnel is only just above the surface of the sand.
The hull is basically intact with a few holes rusted through, and still looks much like when it was afloat, but will probably deteriorate quite rapidly as the plating is getting very thin in places, and holes are appearing in the bottom and sides. The starboard side of the stern has wasted to about level with the flat surface of the sand, so if you go down the scour pit you will end up under or inside the hull. The stern deck areas are a bit cluttered with debris. There is an external bar keel about 150mm deep along the length of the hull.
There are a few places where access to the interior is reasonably practicable, though safety mus be assessed by each diver on site as it will vary depending on skill and conditions.
The stern of the hull is accessible from the bottom of the aft scour pit, where the hull has rusted away. The interior in this area is a large compartment divided up by several structural componebts, including a small flat just below the deck (horizontal partial deck structure) The space is rather crowded by obstructions, but some movement is possible, though it may not be possible to turn around in some areas. The compartment appears to be connected through to other compartments further forward, but the space is very tight.
The side of the hull roughl level with the aft end of the superstructure has a large dent and the hull plating is torn, This hole is large enough to get into part of the machinery spaces, but the interior is very cramped and it does not look safe to go very far.
The wheelhouse is easily accessible by the door in the side of the superstructure, and the interior is reasonably clear, but the rest of the superstructur can be see from there to be full of obstructions and snags, and there does not look like there are any alternative exits.
The main hold is easily accessible from the large hatch forward of the wheelhouse. this space is fairly large, and reasonably clear, and has numerous smaller openings to the outside, including holes in the bottom plating in the scour pit. The interior of the hold is reasonably clear and stable, but if a swell is running, the surge may cause strong flow through the holes, which could be dangerous.
The superstructure just forward og the main hatch has a door on the after bulkheas, which gives easy access to s fairly large and clear compartment with another access through a deck hatch leading to the outside near the level of the sand, The compartment is heavily silted. There is a fairly large and clear hatch leading into the hull in this compartment, but the space in the hull is fairly small, and there does not appear to be anything in it worth looking at.
The rest of the vessel is not easily accessible, if it is possible at all.
The wreck of the MV Aster lies to the north east of the Katsu Maru, at a distance of about 30m.
Geology: Flat sand bottom.
The site is exposed to south westerly swells, which can cause a strong surge. The site is usually at it's best in summer but there are also occasional opportunities in autumn and winter.
This is an area which sometimes has upwellings, caused by strong south easterly winds, resulting in cold clear water, which may develop a plankton bloom over a few days, which will reduce the visibility again.
Keep a lookout for times when the south west swell is low and short period, and there is not too much south easterly wind forecast.
Get in[edit]
Access is only reasonably practicable by boat. The site is about a 2.2km ride from the harbour slipway. The wreck is in the harbour approaches, and there may be significant boat traffic.
See[edit][add listing]
Marine life[edit]
The wreck is heavily encrusted with common feather stars and sponges, with an exceptional display of Sunburst soft corals and some colonial ascidians and hydroids, and conger eels have been reported from the interior.
Encrusting invertebrates on the wreck include a yellow soft coral, white colonial ascidian, white tubular sponges, Multicolour sea fans, an orange encrusting sponge, beige fan sponges, Palmate sea fans, white nippled sea fans, brown encrusting sponge, Pustular tritons, orange feather duster worms, ribbed mussels, salmon pink encrusting sponge, arborescent bryozoans, stripe-mouthed squirts, brown trumpet sponges, Strawberry anemones, Striped anemone and Purple soft coral.
There are also 3-spot swimming crabs in sand and some large West coast rock lobster on the wreck.
Recent wreck in fairly intact condition. The hull is said to provide challenging penetrations. The foredeck still has a large winch, and there are four gas cylinders on a rack.
Macro and/or wide angle equipment recommended.
Make your way to the nearest end of the wreck. move to the west side to the deck and superstructure and work your way along the wreck to the other end. There are a number of openings that you can look into, and in most cases a light will make a big difference in what you will see, as the hull is very dark inside.
From stern to bow the points of interest include: The quarterdeck, a group of high pressure gas cylinders near the funnel, a skylight for the engine room, a deep dent in the port side of the hull structure, a door into the superstructure on the port side, a door and window into the wheelhouse on the port side, a hatchway into the hold, a door into the forward superstructure and a hatchway to the same compartment, and a winch on the forecastle deck near the bow. The deck has more interesting details than the bottom. The sternpost is intact, with the stern gland for the propeller shaft clearly visible, but the rudder is missing.
Stay safe[edit]
Cold water, occasional fog, boat traffic. Possible entrapment if the wreck is penetrated. Some of the structure may be unstable. Strong surge if the swell is large or the period long.
No special skills required unless penetration is intended. It is necessary to be qualified for 30m dives.
A light will restore colour and allow you to look into the wreck. Reel and DSMB are worth carrying in case it is necessary to surface away from the shotline. A dry-suit is recommended as the water is cold, Nitrox is recommended to extend no-decompression time. If you carry a compas, be aware that the mass of steel of the hulls distorts the local magnetic field, and directions will not be accurate within a few metres of the wreck.

This photograph of tobacco farmers has been carefully arranged: to the right is the leader of the team of workers grouped to the left. His billed hat and the hat worn by one of the workers is similar to those worn by peasants from Russian lands; probably the overseer and three of the four workers were from Russian or Austrian Poland. The largest number of recent immigrants in Deerfield, Massachusetts, in 1905 were from these Polish-speaking regions. They pose just as the tobacco has been harvested. The woman worker would have been employed stitching the leaves into bundles that were then hung in drying barns for months. The curing process usually continued for as much as a year. Tobacco became a central crop in the Connecticut River Valley in the last decade of the 19th century and first part of the 20th century.
This photograph comes from the Howes Brothers collection of photographs. The Howes Brothers, based in Ashfield, Massachusetts, made more than 20,000 images of New England rural life from 1890 to around 1910, offering a glimpse into the lives of people rarely visible in history.

'The Killing' Season 3 Spoilers: What Brings Detective Linden Back?
On June 2 AMC's rain-soaked, murder-mystery drama 'The Killing' will return for a third season, having been rescued from the cancellation heap under a joint deal between AMC and Netflix. The new episodes will open up some time after the close of the Rosie Larsen murder, but where has Sarah Linden (Mireille Enos) been all this time? And what brings the detective out of retirement for 'The Killing' season 3? Find out the latest on the new season inside!
We're eager to take a look at new episodes of 'The Killing,' particularly given the series plans to move away from the Rosie Larsen murder that dominated the first two seasons. We know Linden and Holder will start the new season in very different places than we left them, but what could drag Linden back into such a dark and dreary world? According to a new video from TVGuide, a new case discovered by Holder has a deep connection to Linden's past, which brings the reluctant detective out from her self-imposed retirement.
'The Killing' season 3 understandably won't involve the Larsen Family, nor will seasons 1 and 2 regular Mayor Darren Richmond (Billy Campbell) appear. Showrunner Veena Sud told us that the new case drew inspiration from real-life incidents, including photographer Mary Ellen Mark's work depicting street youths in the 1970s, and the police investigation of Washington serial killer Gary Ridgway, which involved 50 women disappearing over a course of 20 years.
In addition to the casting of Peter Sarsgaard as death row inmate Ray Seward, 'The Killing' season 3 also boasts 'Battlestar Galactica' vet Aaron Douglas, 'Flashpoint's' Hugh Dillon, Johnny Ray Gill, Amy Semeitz, Max Fowler and Elias Koteas among its cast.
Take a look at the latest sneak peek of 'The Killing' season 3 below, and tell us in the comments if you'll check out the new season!

「小説 ベルセルク 炎竜の騎士」のタイトルで、北方の小国の守護者・グルンベルドのオリジナルストーリーを書き上げる。三浦による描き下ろしの挿絵も掲載される。
hello, well today they released two photos:2- the other one is for the upcoming novel, and you were right all along guys, it's about Grunbeld.If Miura alone wrote the story it would have been exciting news for all of us. ( at least that's the case for me )
Damn it, now I'm gonna have an internal battle whether I should buy this shit or not. I'd do it for the illustrations but other then that... It would be impossible for me to read it for a while. So I hope at least to have new illustrations.. I'll wait a bit and see what it looks like when it comes out.
I almost wish Grunbeld would land at Skellig in episode 351, just so there'd be some sense to this beyond a tie-in with the anime...
And as for whether or not we'll get an official release of the book in English (with the usual mediocre quality we've come to expect), I wouldn't venture myself to make a guess.
Berserk isn't really "dark fantasy" either. It's plain fantasy
Miura has been very protective of Berserk
it ain't pretty, especially for us older fans, that got sucked into the manga on the shoulders of higher quality adaptations. I can't even imagine anyone wanting to read Berserk after watching these latest godawful animations.
This, would be great indeed. Though I fear the reason is for the latter.
I'll probably get it for the drawings anyway since we all know the art is awesome.
The press release also specifically says the book is a "fully original story by Makoto Fukami". It lists Fukami as author of the book while Miura is credited as the author of the work it's based on.
I'd be curious to know if the reason for this is because Miura feels he doesn't have enough time presently or in the future, to create these backstories for the side characters.
And the fear I expressed early on in this thread is still very tangible: that this isn't a one shot, that it's only the beginning. What's next? The Skull Knight? Zodd? Written by whatever third rate guy is willing to give it a shot? I am not happy about this.
The fact that they're starting with Grunbeld and not Zodd I think implies that they're not going to novelize Zodd's origin story, it's likely to just be the elite war demons, Locus, Grunbeld, Rakshas and Irvine.
Are you saying that if they were going to do Zodd, they'd have started with him because he's a more popular character? That's not very convincing. They probably don't have every step of this novel plan scripted out. The decision to do Grunbeld first may have been opportunistic. Perhaps Fukami had an idea about Grunbeld's past, because he was the one in charge of the anime script, and he decided to embark on this novel project. Even at this early stage, I think there's a very real possibility of novels for many other characters, including Zodd.
It's true that there could be other novels after this for other apostles like Locus (let's hope not though), but i doubt it would feature Zodd. He's one of the most iconic character of the series, one of the fated final enemy for Guts, after Griffith, and very likely he's going to die in that last battle. I find hard to imagine that Miura, or anyone at Hakusensha who work as manager or editor for Berserk would allow his backstory to be revealed outside the manga. Let alone Skull Knight. I think we can rest easy for at least both of them.
So long as the author doesn't make any canon destroying mistakes I don't mind.
The fact Miura provided original illustrations for the backstory also strongly legitimizes it.
Can't believe I'm saying this, but as much as I like seeing new Miura art, I wish they'd just use some of the extremely ugly stills from the new anime series for this thing, and slap a "based on the anime" sticker on the cover.
Well, the fact that it is a relatively minor character like Grunbeld, more famous for his position and outsized appearance than anything intrinsically interesting about him (I mean, his fight with Guts confirmed he's kind of a bore) [...] I think he's closer to cannon fodder than main attraction in the battles to come.

Director Ed Shea has taken his 2nd Story Theatre to new heights. We now have an elevator, new comfortable seats, elaborate sets and one of the funniest, irreverent, risqué plays we have seen in many a year: Charles Busch's "The Divine Sister."
You enter the theatre listening to songs from "The Sound of Music," with clips of old nun movies showing on a big screen.
Q: What is going on?
A: Pure madness.
Busch cleverly and lovingly has taken his love for movies about nuns and turned it into a twisted, farcical homage to everything from "The Bells of St. Mary's" to "Doubt."
The hilarious plot revolves around St. Veronica's School and Convent, which is about to be closed due to lack of finances. Mother Superior, played to the hilt by the multi-talented John Michael Richardson, must deal with saving the place while also dealing with her hysterical staff and a series of outlandish circumstances.
The crisp writing is filled with puns, put-downs and a bit of R-rated humor that really didn't seem so naughty in the hands of the wonderful actors. Still, leave the kids home.
Set designer Trevor Elliott has outdone himself with a triple scene revolving set that also serves as a clever backdrop for a scene where two nuns race through city streets. Ron Cesario has designed outrageous costumes for the rich Jewess atheist, whose money the nuns are after.
Because of limited space and the fact that I don't want to spoil the fun, which includes a number of twists and turns, I'm not going to give away the whirlwind plot. I'll just say that every nun has a past, and they are not always who you think they are.
Much of the action revolves around Agnes (Ashley Kenner), a sweet, young postulant who believes she can perform miracles, seeing signs and visions in the most offbeat settings, and undergoing one of the biggest and most bizarre character changes ever seen on stage.
While Richardson rips up the scenery, he is assisted by great performances from veterans Rae Mancini, Margaret Melozzi and Jim Sullivan, all of who have their moments to shine. Janine Weisman brings a dark side to the story, playing a German nun who worships "The Divine Joyce." Some may call this blasphemous, while we more open-minded folks will catch the fun poked at atheists.
"The Divine Sister" is divine comedy. If you have an open mind and a sense of humor, you will love it. "The Divine Sister" plays through May 20 at 2nd Story Theatre in Warren. Tickets are $25. Call 247-4200 for reservations.

Government reforms funeral payments scheme
The government is going ahead with its proposed changes to the Funeral Expenses Payment scheme, following a consultation in 2017.
The scheme offers a contribution towards funeral costs for individuals in receipt of qualifying benefits.
In a written statement posted on 22 January 2018, the government confirmed that it will be changing the eligibility conditions, to make the scheme easier to access and more widely available.
From 2 April 2018, when the changes come into force, claimants will be able to:
- receive contributions from charities, relatives or friends without them being deducted from the overall sum payable toward funeral costs
- make an application for help with funeral costs up to 6 months from the funeral date, instead of the current 3 months
- submit evidence in support of their claim electronically.
However, the maximum payment individuals can receive will stay the same - at £700.
A survey by SunLife of 1,524 people put the average cost of a basic funeral in 2017 at £4,078 - a rise of 41% from £2,390 in 2007.
Graham Jones, commercial director at SunLife, said:
"It is good news that the government is taking steps to simplify the process of making a claim for Funeral Expenses Payments.
"However, the fact that £700 is the maximum amount available and most people will not even qualify for that highlights the importance of putting something aside to pay for your own funeral."
Get in touch to discuss your personal finances.

Liberty News
Board of Trustees member Bailey Smith speaks at convo
The late Dr. Jerry Falwell once called evangelist Dr. Bailey Smith one of the all-time great evangelists.
Smith has served as president of the Southern Baptist Convention and preached in nearly every state. In Monday's convocation, the evangelist who is also a member of the Liberty University Board of Trustees spoke to LU students about lessons to be learned from the biblical account of Jonah.
Jonah, who was called to preach in Nineveh, fled from God's direction. It took a storm and being swallowed by a big fish to get Jonah's attention and put him back on God's track.
"Don't rationalize yourself out of God's will," Smith said.
Before the message, Campus Pastor Dwayne Carson told students that he came to know the Lord because of a sermon Smith preached at Criswell Bible College in Dallas, Texas, years ago.

Exchange has warts, but Minnesota made right choice
Many Republicans warned of rising health care costs that would come after the implementation of Minnesota's Health Insurance Exchange – a new twist to the health care field brought on by President Barack Obama's health care overhaul – and it looks like they might be right.
States were given a choice to either accept Obama's health care plan – unflatteringly dubbed "Obamacare" – or go on their own and come up with a system unique to their state. That's the path Minnesota chose and, indeed, the state will set up an online marketplace where the uninsured can shop for insurance (plan coverage will begin Jan. 1, 2014). It will be administered and monitored by a seven-member advisory board that will include the state's human services commissioner; the board will have authority to select policies that can be sold through the exchange (another aspect of the plan Republicans frowned upon).
It became a divisive issue at the Capitol, but cleared both the Democratic-led House and Senate and was signed into law by Gov. Mark Dayton's last week.
But while supporters argue that Minnesotans will save $1 billion by 2016, the exchange, called MNSURE, will be costly, and some say it's not worth the money.
But what doesn't cost money?
At least Minnesota chose to go its own way and will have some form of local control when it comes to insuring its residents. And had Minnesota chose not to create its own path to widespread health care and shaded itself under the Obamacare tree, residents more than likely would be looking at increased premiums anyway. A new study has found that insurance companies will have to pay out an average of 32 percent more for medical claims under the new federal mandate. Since the law prohibits insurance companies from turning aside people with pre-existing conditions, sicker people will be able to sign on, which, the study says, will drive up costs in the end.
When looking at the financial numbers, there was no avoiding a cost increase, no matter which direction states went.
Is Minnesota's plan perfect? No. But what is? By going solo, Minnesota made the most of what could be looked at as a lose-lose situation. Obama and the Democrats are getting what they wanted – health insurance for all – and Minnesotans who are currently uninsured can at least take solace in knowing we're moving forward on our own terms.

Today I received copies of two wills that I ordered from the Lincolnshire Archives several weeks ago. One of the wills was that of John Would who died in 1825 in Kirkby on Bain, Lincolnshire. I thought at first that this John Would was the father of Elizabeth Wold Stephenson and my 4th great grandfather, but it was not to be. What a coincidence that a small town such as Kirkby on Bain would have two John Woulds who both died in 1825!
For the benefit of other researchers, here is the information that I was able to gather on the John Would of the will.
John Would married Ann Lusby 13 May 1766 in Kirkby on Bain. They had three children: Thomas (born 1767), Joseph (born 1769), and Susanna (born 1778). John's will does not mention his wife, Thomas, or Joseph, so presumably they were deceased at the time of John's death.
John's daughter Susanna Would married William Greetham 7 May 1795 in Kirkby on Bain. They had three children: Mary, Thomas, and Elizabeth, all of whom were remembered in their grandfather John's will.
Mary Greetham married John Motley 26 March 1818. John Motley was a butcher.
Thomas Greetham married Elizabeth and had two children, Mary and Ann.
Elizabeth Greetham married George Taylor 13 May 1819. George was a farmer.
John Would designated his daughter Susanna as Executrix of his will and grandson Thomas and grandson-in-law John Motley as Executors.
It is amazing how much information can be determined from a will and 30 minutes on a computer.

When Gerald Lorentz first came over Tuscarora Mountain on Route 16, driving his new 1947 Chevrolet, he was a young and ambitious doctor looking for a place where he could make a difference. Medical school and three years in the Army behind him, Lorentz's goal was to settle into family practice. Although there was no medical facility and only a few practicing physicians in 1947, Lorentz decided, "That's for me." What "that" turned out to be was a 43-year career as a country doctor. On August 16 Lorentz will close his office, climaxing a career of nearly half a century, that spanned generations of families and unbelievable progress in the diagnosis and treatment of disease.

Could you get a Z-28 with a flat hood in 1969? Dave
John Z.My 1969 z/28 camaro, build date of 1OD, with a flat hood. Had hood insulation as well asa trunk mat. I know that for a fact because when I bought the vehicle over 20 years ago.I removed the insulation for the hood because it was tearing and I threw out the trunkmat because it was also torn. Does that mean my 69 was ordered with the z87 deluxeinterior. I also have the front endura front bumper.ThanksAlan

Music is a huge part of my life, it has influenced me, moved me, washed me over with emotions and provoked thought. What songs are your favorite, (lets say top 3) that align with your views of nontheism?
Mine are:
Hurt - Adonai
A Perfect Circle - Judith
Tool - Eulogy
Views: 390
Try St Peter's Cathedral by Death Cab for Cutie.
Stephen Lynch - Priest
REM - Losing my religion
That was a much tougher question than I first thought. I was going to put sympathy for the devil on the list, but that technically requires a theist viewpoint. Most of my music doesn't relate to atheism at all, but some of it (living on a prayer, keep the faith, stairway to heaven, the seeker etc) can be related to theism and I do have a lot of Alice Cooper, which some might class as christian music.
A heap of Frank Zappa songs like; "Catholic Girls", "Cosmik Debris", "Jesus Thinks You're A Jerk", "Inca Roads", "Can't Afford No Shoes","Andy Devine", "Pojama People" and all the tracks on the album "Have I Offended Someone", "Stink Foot", "Joes Garage".
Guns & Roses: "Out Ta Get Me", "You're Crazy"
These songs all had a big influence on my world-view.
"Shallow Be Thy Game" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. As a bonus, it's great music, too!
Thats easy, mainly because its from my favourite Album of all time...
Wooden Jesus on the album Temple of the Dog by Temple of the Dog (Mainly members of Soundgarden and Pearl Jam). Massive rock sound with an acerbic take on commercialism of religion.
Check it out...
I have the album. I love that song.
Listen to Reason by Brian Steeksma, used as the theme to Atheist Experience
Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode
How do you Do? By Shakira.
Runner's up might include:
God will Fuck You Up by John R Butler
Imagine by John Lennon
Draconian Crackdown by Rasputina
What if God was One of Us? by Joan Osborne
Don't Fear the Reaper by Blue Öyster Cult
Change Your Mind by Sister Hazel
Secular Humanist Revival (comedy speech) by Orson Scott Card
Sex With Ducks, hilarious YouTube video by Garfunkel and Oates
Great songs James.
I only listen to great music, so natch.
I also like The Parting Glass (traditional Irish, which I want played when they bury me or pitch the fiddleboard seaward in a burial-at-sea).
I will have to check out some of these titles.
Another song is like is Christain Woman - Type O Negative, Right in Two - Tool, Rapture (fear is a mind killa) - Puscifer.
There are tons more but I would like to hear some more from all of you!

"The world is becoming smaller every day. The world market now responds to prices in much the same way we do, and production trends are affected in much the same way they are here in the United States," says Rob Westmoreland, executive vice president for Sparks Companies, Inc. in Memphis:
The good news, Westmoreland told growers attending the 30th annual Delta Ag Expo in Cleveland, is that U.S. commodities are moderately under-priced with pricing opportunities possible this spring and early summer.
While the possibility of a full-scale war with Iraq has some market watchers subdued, Westmoreland believes we are nearing an economic breakout in the United States, and are starting to approach a point where capital investments turn in a positive direction.
"Global economics and world off-take of major commodities show some very positive trends," he says.
A downside of world participation, Westmoreland says, is increased competition. "Brazil is the last place in the world where acreage can expand, and is expanding. In the U.S., we are effectively at 100 percent land utilization. Another aspect of our shrinking world is the consolidation of the supply chain worldwide, with a dramatically shrinking number of participants in that chain."
"In reality, nobody really likes free trade. It remains a political goal, but I expect progress will be move slowly on these issues. Agriculture is too important to be left dangling out there, and GMOs are being used as a new way to slow down free trade talks, allowing countries to protect their interests and maintain their self-sufficiency," he says.
Westmoreland also expects random weather events associated with El Nino will play a magnified role in commodity markets price moves this year.
That means that although market opportunities are likely to present themselves to growers, they'll most likely be the result of either a weather-related crop problem, or a perceived problem that causes worry in the market.
Early producer planting intentions, according to Sparks Companies' surveys, show an increase in corn acreage, a decrease in soybean, rice and sorghum acreage, and a cotton crop about flat on last year's numbers.
"The farm bill is lowering soybean support and increasing corn support somewhat. As a result, producers are moving toward corn, which is expected to be up 3 percent in the Heartland alone," Westmoreland says. "We expect soybean acreage will be pulled down about 2 percent, setting the stage for a tightening of soybean supplies."
With a decrease in soybean acreage predicted, Westmoreland says the 2003 crop will likely end up in the 2. 8-billion bushel vicinity.
"This is an extremely popular commodity in New York and Chicago. However, we will be out-produced and out-shipped by South America. Despite many negative factors, they will produce and export their biggest crop ever," he says. "With a monster tidal wave of soybeans coming at us from Brazil, it could mean trouble selling come harvest this fall.
Any pricing opportunities for U.S. producers will probably come at planting time, or early in the crop season."
A bountiful U.S. corn crop is expected in 2003, with early indications suggesting a potential 10.5-billion bushel crop on about 81.5 million acres. "A 10.2-billion bushel demand is becoming somewhat perennial, so we need to produce that 10 billion bushel crop of corn," he says.
If U.S. corn producers produce a bumper 2003 crop, Westmoreland says the average price for corn could be a bit lower than current levels. The opportunity for an eight-to-10 cent basis pop could present itself to Delta growers harvesting before the Midwest crop makes it way to the grain bin.
An increase in demand for corn to be used domestically to make ethanol is also possible. "There's a big constituency on both sides of the aisle for an ethanol subsidy, so producers should continue to watch this issue," he says.
Cotton acreage is expected to remain flat in 2003, according to producer surveys taken by Sparks Companies. Assuming a normal harvest, U.S. cotton growers are predicted to yield about 665 pounds per harvested acre over 14 million planted acres, producing about a 17.6 million-bale crop.
"Taking into account continued demands for about 18 million bales of cotton at current price levels, stocks should come down on top of a world stocks decline, resulting in a positive bias against today's price levels," Westmoreland says. "Negative weather will further enhance pricing opportunities during the 2003 growing season."
Westmoreland is predicting a 3-percent decline in U.S. rice acreage, which combined with stocks of 27 million hundredweight and steady world export demand, could pull prices back up to $6.50 per hundredweight. While admittedly not the price level producers would like to see, he says, "It's better than a sharp stick in the eye, when you've had $4 per hundredweight."
Average rice yields across the United States would equal production of about 205 million hundredweight, he says.
In comparison, U.S. winter wheat acreage is up this season, but Westmoreland calls crop conditions "questionable."
Harvest in the Delta will occur when supplies are tightest, which may offer some pricing opportunities for Southern wheat growers. "The wheat crop is off to a poor start, acreage is down in some areas, and there are weather problems globally, which sets the stage for what could be some pretty impressive spring rallies," Westmoreland says.

Shoe Scene
We are an Australian ladies fashion footwear wholesale business, incorporating well known brands in the department store and independent retail markets. The brands we represent are high fashion, high quality, mid priced and we would like our logo to reflect this.
The audience is major and independent retailers and their respective fashion footwear buyers/business managers. This group are abreast of fashion trends and quite creative, yet commercial, so we imagine the logo will need to be contemporary/corporate and not gimmicky.

The business will house a range of ladies fashion shoe brands, so we want an elegant, stylish and simple design.
Colours we are keen on are black, white with perhaps a touch of red.
(The red inspiration comes from the image of a red stiletto which may/may not be incorporated into design)
Keep the font simple, bold.
Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo.
All original design source files must be supplied. Our printer prefers print ready PDF files with crop marks and 3mm bleed, so the contest winner will be required to supply as requested.
