If someone were to ask me why I hate Queensland, my answer would be, because they are them. There is not a thing more to it, they are them, and it is what is in me, a passion that is unyielding and inexplicable, and it is what should be in every proud New South Welshman at this time of year.
I will state what every one of us with blue tinged blood would like to ignore, but which must nonetheless be stated, explicitly we, the premier state of New South Wales, have sustained total and absolute defeat over the last five years, it has been a slow and painful slink into the wake of a new maroon dynasty.
And yet, here we are, another year, with another chance to regain supremacy.
Make no mistake, this is a brilliant Queensland team, and a series victory will ensure this will be recounted as one of the greatest in Blues history.
We are the underdogs, the media is predicting us to lose, and the faith of the fans is wavering. Queensland will protest otherwise, their insecurities beckon it, crave it, but we are the underdogs.
Queensland will not be ill-prepared, they are aware of what it takes to attain victory, they will send all their might, all their fury, they know they will have to break us or lose the series, that is how State of Origin is won.
The upcoming weeks will be full of grind and struggle, I ask of our brothers in Blue who take the field, on behalf of the rest of us, to give your all, to give your blood, your sweat, your tears and your flesh, for the sake of victory!
Victory is what we covet, victory at all costs, victory in spite of injuries, victory however long and hard the road may be. Without victory, there is no honour, there is no pride, there is no swagger. We must wage war with Queensland, wage war with an all-encompassing one minded focus, victory!
We must be ready for battle, for the conflict, enamour yourself with self-belief, enamour your blue blooded comrades with unrelenting support, demonstrate desire for the ultimate outcome, victory!
We must fight until the end, we must fight at Suncorp, we must fight at ANZ, we must fight for every second of every minute, and we must defend our natural right to hold up the shield, whatever the cost may be.
We must never give in, never, never, never, never - in nothing, great or small, large or petty, never give in.
Never yield to force, never yield to the seemingly overwhelming might of the enemy, never yield to injuries or poor fortune.
We must pull together or face the consequence that is another year in a maroon inferno. We can stay here with sullen looks and submit to defeat, or we can wage war, we can come together and fight out way back and demand victory.
What is it going to be?

EMC slides Archer Technologies into security quiver
Aims at IT risk portfolio
Storage behemoth EMC started down the 2010 acquisition trail on Monday by announcing an agreement to purchase Archer Technologies, a privately-held maker of IT governance, risk management, and compliance software.
The vendor did not disclose the acquisition's price tag, but said the transaction is not expected to have a material impact to its revenue or earnings for the full 2010 fiscal year.
Archer's technology will be rolled into EMC's RSA Security division and provide "stronger policy management capabilities" to the existing portfolio, EMC said in a statement.
The Archer portfolio will be added with RSA's data loss prevention and security information and event management products, in addition to EMC's Ionix data center management tools. EMC indicated it would also continue selling Archer's software under both an on-premise and software-as-a-service model.
"Traditional security management focuses primarily on addressing technology issues, but our customers are telling us that their real challenges are in the areas of policy management, audit and compliance," stated Art Coviello, President of EMC's RSA division.
EMC plans to let Archer remain at its headquarters in Overland Park, Kansas after the acquisition is finalized. Archer claims to have more than 6 million licensed users and counts 25 of the Fortune 100 as clients. ®

It's official. Dismissed as a silly rumour by many, Nokia and Micorsoft have just announced a very comprehensive partnership in which Windows Phone 7 will become Nokia's prime smartphone platform. It goes a lot deeper than that, though. Update: Qt will not be available for Windows Phone 7. Qt will remain the development platform for MeeGo and Symbian. Update II: During its Capital Market Day event, Elop confirmed Nokia will not make a comprehensive MeeGo product line. It will be a platform to learn from, but it won't become a competitive platform. Update III: Android was not an option because it would be difficult to differentiate there. Update IV: There will be 'substantial reductions in employment' in Finland and around the world. Also, before I forget, thanks Engadget for the live-blogging where I get this stuff from!

RE[5]: Yay

It's not always the carrier who restricts updates though. Motorola dragged their ass with the 2.1 update for the Cliq, and when they finally did release it, it was a buggy, unstable pile of horse dung. T-Mobile had nothing to do with that, as the update (or lack of it) affected worldwide Motorola customers.

74: Su Doku
|Su Doku
Title text: This one is from the Red Belt collection, of 'medium' difficulty
Su Doku (Japanese for "Single number", and now usually written as "Sudoku") is a type of number puzzle, in which the player must place digits in a matrix playfield in such a way that no digit appears twice in a horizontal and vertical row, and in a region of nine digits in the said matrix. The most common arrangement is a 9x9 grid subdivided into nine 3x3 grids, each of which must contain the digits 1-9. The number and combination of pre-filled squares determines the difficulty of the puzzle. The title text refers to the "Red Belt"-collection, which is a series of extremely difficult puzzles.
In this comic, Randall presents us with a binary Sudoku puzzle. A normal Sudoku is "decimal" like our normal counting system (ten digits) counting from one to nine. Some Sudoku puzzles use the hexidecimal system with 16 digits (0-9 and A-F) and a 16x16 grid for more difficulty. The joke is that binary system has only two digits (0 and 1), and therefore binary Sudoku puzzles would be infinitely easy and thus pointless. There really are only two possible puzzles in a 4x4 grid. The puzzle in the comic would be completed by filling 0 in the top-left and 1 in the bottom-left empty box. The only other possible grid would have the 0s and 1s swapped. This fulfills the criteria of having no repeated digits in any row or column, although digits would repeat in the 4x4 grid. Presumably binary Sudoku has no sub-regions.
The title text appears to reference a series of published Sudoku puzzle books called the "Martial Arts Sudoku" series. The difficulty of each book is denoted by a belt colour which itself references the fact that in many Martial Arts, participants are awarded coloured belts when they reach certain skill levels, with each colour representing a certain skill level. It appears Judo was the first to use this system. A black belt is the stereotypical "highest" belt, although this is not always in fact the case, depending on the Martial Arts discipline. In the Sudoku series, red belt was level 8 (of 9) just below black belt. Thus the red belt reference therefore implies that this puzzle was found in the second-highest level of binary Sudoku books.
The puzzle is labeled as "medium" difficulty in the title text because it has two of the squares filled. In a 2x2 binary Sudoku puzzle, only one square is required to solve the puzzle. By labeling this puzzle as "medium" difficulty, it implies that a puzzle with three squares filled would be labeled "easy," and a puzzle with only one square filled would be labeled "hard," with the irony being that none of the puzzles could possibly be considered difficult.
- [A square divided into 2x2 squares, the top-right one has an 1 in it, the bottom-right one has a 0, the two left ones are empty]
- Binary Su Doku
If that puzzle is 4 (i.e. 2x2) domains of 1x1 cells or 1 domain of 4x4 cells then it's actually an impossible puzzle. Sudoku grids for 'n' symbols (ignoring some very interesting variants) need to be of n² cells in total with n cells in each direction, composed of n 'domains', each of n cells so as to contain one and only one of each symbol in use. That's 81 cells in a traditional 1-9 digit 9x9 format, being 3x3 array of 3x3 individual cells in typical
Sudokus Sudokii Sudoka puzzles, but can be irregularly domained instead as long as the domains still have nine cells. In a 12-digit that's often 3x4 cells in each domain, arrayed 4x3 (or 4x3 arrayed 3x4) to make a 12x12 full grid but can be 2x6 6x2s (or <=>) or of irregular, but still equally-sized, subdivisions. ("Killer" variations typically augment the row, column and domain parities with a 'fourth dimension' of unequally-sized irregular domains (no larger than any other domain, containing a maximum of one of each digit, but possibly zero of some) labelled as having a stated sum total within (more than or equal to m*(m-1)/2 for m cells in that given sum-zone, assuming the lowest digit is 1, and less than or equal to (n*(n-1)/2)-((n-m)*(n-m-1)/2), if n digits are being used as unique symbols throughout the whole grid), but that's generally in leiu of all pre-existing clue digits, using Kakuro-like calculations to break ground on the puzzle's answer.)
Realistically, therefore, the comic must be 1x2 domains of 2x1 cells. Or the other way round. Although it's not obvious from the line-weighting which it might be. As each subdivision is the same as the row-grouping or column-grouping it could effectively be just a 'simpler' puzzle that abandons or considers redundant domains other than the basic rows and columns, given that each possible domain-type would be congruent with one or other of the two implicit groupings. However, it definitely could not be an "X" variant of the puzzle type (repetition dissallowed across the major diagonals, as well as across rows and columns), otherwise it reverts to being impossible again...
However, none of what I've just said is particularly entertaining, so please feel free to ignore it and instead try the following Unary Sudoku.... (Hint: its major diagonals are also valid domains to solve!)

Major update
I think we even can discus PIxPI grids here at discussion page, but the explain should be simple as possible. Please help on that bad remaining language. AND: Since Randall is from the US we have AE (American English) here.--Dgbrt (talk) 21:19, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
I think this description of the alt text is a little inadequate. The reason the puzzle is 'medium difficulty' is because any given puzzle in a binary sudoku is going to be essentially the same... you'll either have a one and a zero, two ones, or two zeroes since those are the only ways to ensure a unique solution. So all puzzles have the same difficulty which is why it is 'medium'.--22.214.171.124 08:28, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
- I don't follow your sentence "you'll either have a one and a zero, two ones, or two zeroes", please can you try and explain more clearly. Essentially though, there are two possible solutions to the puzzle:
0 1 or alternatively 1 0 1 0 0 1
- The only thing which can make the difficultly change is how many cells are pre-filled. If 0 are filled then either both solutions are correct, or it is impossible to know which solution is correct. If 1 cell is filled, then it is easy to complete the rest of the grid. If 2 are filled, then it is even easier to complete, and easier again with 3 filled. --Pudder (talk) 11:01, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

Chinese Elm Bench
This elm bench is a perfect coffee table size. Dates from the last quarter of the 19th century.
How much simpler can you get in a bench? This one has a plain plank top. The legs are joined directly to the top, with an added apron connecting the legs, and simple spandrels. This bench is a model of simplicity. Some people think that all Chinese furniture is heavily carved. This bench is mute refutation of that belief.

The American Goldfinch is a prized backyard visitor. The Goldfinch is so adored that it is the state bird in both - New Jersey and Iowa.
This small bird is commonly recognized by its eye-catching lemon color, joyful flight pattern, and beautiful song. The American Goldfinch is found almost anywhere flocking in fields and open areas, thickets, shrubs, and residential neighborhoods. Drawn to thistle seed, this species enjoys the social atmosphere found around backyard feeders. Abundant throughout a majority of North America, the American Goldfinch is in the same family as the Pine Siskin, House Finch, and Lesser Goldfinch.

The People Who Make NetBSD Happen
A large number of people have put a lot of time and effort into making the NetBSD operating system what it is today, either by developing the system itself, supporting its development, or simply using it. Those people can be broken down into the following groups:
- Organisations that have made donations or loans to NetBSD
- People that have made donations or loans to NetBSD
- Supporting Cast — non-developers who help NetBSD
Additionally, without the University of California, Berkeley's Computer Systems Research Group and the many contributors to the Berkeley Software Distributions, the NetBSD Project surely would not exist. We thank them for their efforts.

Lancers, foul trouble limit OD's Richie in 80-40 LaVille win
LAKEVILLE — LaVille's boys basketball team took care of the outcome with a 23-2 game-opening run against Oregon-Davis Tuesday.
That reduced the rest of the game's drama to settling state leading scorer Zach Richie's final point total.
Buoyed by a revolving double team, the Lancers and foul trouble held Richie to 13 points — more than 25 points below his season average — and junior guard Jordyn Williams led four Lancers in double figures with 22 points as LaVille doubled up the Bobcats 80-40 at Dale E. Cox Gymnasium.
"It's amazing how (Richie) can be double-teamed like that and still score 13 points," LaVille head coach Michael Edison said. "Even though that's below what he's used to scoring, 13 points is still a pretty good total. Overall, I thought we did a pretty good job on him. As tough as it is on the guys guarding him, it's probably even tougher on the other three guys who have to guard everyone else.
"Richie is definitely a great player," he added. "I was just as intense during the last minute because Richie can score a lot in a very short amount of time, and I didn't want to see all that work go down the drain."
Williams and senior Trenton Stout tipped off the game on Richie — Williams on the OD junior guard's left hand and Stout on the right in the halfcourt — with Landon Manuel and Drew Dutoi spelling the starters.
Richie, meanwhile, piled up four offensive fouls in the first half, taking a seat on his fourth personal with 2:08 left in the second frame, and sat until the start of the fourth quarter.
"I had a little incentive that anybody who took a charge would get out of a more extreme sprint in practice," Edison said. "I thought about going the other direction and adding sprints for every free throw they allowed Richie, but I decided to be proactive. I could see guys getting up after taking a charge and whispering to their buddies about how they were getting out of a sprint tomorrow. I might have to start offering pizza parties or ice cream."
However, OD head coach Matt Richie, Zach's dad, thought the game turned a bit too physical.
"I don't understand how one player can have bruises, scratches and red marks, and he can be called for four offensive fouls," the OD skipper said. "He was double-teamed, grabbed and held all game long. That took us out of our game, but if I were Mike I'd do the same thing.
"(LaVille) got to do whatever they wanted to do," he added. "They rode Zach like a horse when he had the ball, and when he passed the ball they had two guys holding him by the jersey. I'm very disappointed. We've seen a lot of this in the second half of the season, but it seems like tonight it was more exaggerated."
Even so, LaVille seized control from the start. Sophomore Andrew Hostetler drilled back-to-back triples from the left corner to open the game, and LaVille never looked back on its way to a 33-8 lead at the first-quarter break and a 50-22 halftime advantage.
The Lancers hit 57 percent from the field for the game and turned the ball over only nine times, including just three times in the first half.
"I was pleased, surprisingly enough, with our offense," Edison said. "In a game like this it's easy to take quick shots, but I thought we showed poise and composure. We passed up shots and got the same shot or even better shots five or six passes later. We took care of the basketball, and that was important because a lot of Richie's points come from turnovers. All in all, I'm happy with how all of our kids played."
Also for LaVille, sophomore forward Nick Amor patrolled the paint for 17 points and six rebounds. Stout sank a trio of treys en route to 13 points, and Hostetler, who also canned three 3s, added 11 points and hauled in eight rebounds. Senior forward Codee Kimbel dished out four assists for the Lancers.
Nathan Boyle pulled down six rebounds, and Ricardo Mastrocesare handed out four assists for the Cats, who battled foul trouble all night.
"Defensively, we never got up on the ball," Matt Richie said. "We were in so much foul trouble that we couldn't get up on the ball. We had to play a lax man-to-man."
LaVille hosts Jimtown Friday. OD faces Westville in a Class A Sectional 50 first-round game at Triton Tuesday.

China Grasps Value of Gold, Even if U.S. Doesn't
In the first presidential debate, both candidates portrayed themselves as innovative problem-solvers pursuing creative avenues to "grow" the American economy. Interestingly, GOP nominee Mitt Romney did not mention his party's most creative idea, laid out at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla.,: creating a national monetary commission "to investigate possible ways to set a fixed value for the dollar" — an unmistakable nod toward the gold standard and gold-based monetary policy.
Many policymakers and experts on the economy in the United States and abroad have recently highlighted the benefits of gold-based monetary policy, and governments have increased their own gold holdings in recent years. China has pursued gold more aggressively than any other country. Chinese economists, financial executives and government officials have encouraged citizens to invest in gold and, it would appear, have done much to increase China's gold reserves. Perhaps the United States should follow China's example.
In an interview with China 2011 Economy, Zhou Qiren, Dean of Peking University's National School of Development, said that a global system in which the values of currencies were pegged to gold would make "an excellent monetary system." He said "if the currency of each major country is bound to gold, financial headaches would of course be reduced ... it would be impossible for [U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben] Bernanke to print 600 billion USD to purchase long-term debt ... (and) the gold standard would effectively prevent each country's government from recklessly levying 'inflation taxes' domestically and passing troubles to others by manipulating currency exchange internationally."
In December 2011, Zhang Jianhua, research director of the People's Bank of China, reportedly observed that "no asset is safe now. The only choice to hedge risks is to hold hard currency — gold."
As financier Christopher Potter points out in a column for the Lehrman Institute's TheGoldStandardNow.org, "China is preparing for a world beyond the inconvertible paper dollar, a world in which the renminbi, buttressed by gold, becomes the dominant reserve currency." Potter's article, "China's Preparing for the End Game — Are We Paying Attention?," points out that the Chinese government is expected to own more gold than the U.S. government in five years.

Journal sllort's Journal: This is why I don't post here anymore 6
How could I possibly out-do the events of this week? I became redundant a long time ago. Rob Malda gets anonymously bitchslapped by a World of Warcraft Administrator. He spends hours* writing a rant about how he totally understands, isn't angry, and then renames his character "Violated". Right.
When he says "the irony of the situation isn't lost on me", he's right. I'm sure the Atlantic Ocean isn't lost on him either. You just can't ignore something so vast, powerful, and... salty.
When Taco bitchslapped my public IP in his Apache config, I created an account named "Trolls" spelled backwards. We're pretty much the same guy. Except I can spell.
In the end, my job has been taken over by the pants of the Malda household, who has responded to Rob's second public posting since his wedding proposal by posting a couple pictures of her cleavage on the Internet with the caption "that'll show my husband, CmdrTaco, that he's not the ONLY one who knows how to assume fake ranks that they didn't earn!" and "Commander Cleavage(why am I posting this?!??)".
I almost got into an argument once with this lady at a gas station. I was talking on my cell phone, and she shut my pump down, turned on the PA, and told me my cell phone could kill everyone. The Eyes of The Gas Station were upon me. I went inside and mentioned that she was voicing a myth. Out poured a tirade of fiction about incinerated cell phone toting firebugs, and I felt it, you know, that old urge to refute stupidity.
But then I realized that being that stupid bitch at the gas station was its own punishment, and I kept driving.
Have fun playing Warcraft, Rob.
*Hours? Yes. There's not a single spelling mistake. He brooded over that shit.

Evaluating saddle fit analysis
Ten years ago dvm360 (then DVM Newsmagazine) published an article called "Saddle Fit" (April 2002), with a 10-step process providing veterinarians and owners a way to objectively evaluate saddle fit. That article was written largely in response to a horse owner's letter that questioned a perceived gap in understanding and attention paid to horses' backs between horse owners and trainers and the equine veterinary community.
Now, a decade later, it would be nice to report that everyone is on the same page. Although more veterinary attention has been turned toward the area of saddle fit, as evidenced by studies investigating the influence of saddle tree width, saddle pad thickness and even individual saddle types,1-3 there still seems to be a disagreement about the actual importance of saddle fit influences on training, behavior and performance.Additionally, saddle fit analysis itself has become much more complex and technical. The use of thermography and matrix-based tactile surface sensor pads with computer analysis to evaluate saddle fit and equine back problems has made it possible to be more definitive about the exact interaction between horse and saddle. But these modalities have also left the average horse owner just as confused and frustrated as he or she was a decade ago.

This page is about the idiom for the time being
If something will be the way it is "for the time being", it will be that way for a limited period of time only.
For example
- You can stay here for the time being, but you'll have to move out when you find your own place.
- My car is being repaired, so for the time being I'll have to use the bus.

FITCHBURG -- A Townsend man was arrested Thursday afternoon after he was caught allegedly attempting to shoplift $118.46 worth of steaks from the Water Street Market Basket by stuffing them down his pants, according to court documents.
Jordan R. Simmons, 26, of 1 Willow Drive, Townsend, is charged with shoplifting by concealing merchandise and possession of a Class C drug.
According to a police report included with the court documents, Simmons allegedly put a rib eye roast valued at $75.07, two rib eye steaks valued at $10.88 and $11.24, and a tenderloin steak valued at $21.27 down his pants and attempted to leave the store without paying.
During a search of his person, police also found one Vicodin pill, for which Simmons allegedly admitted to not having a prescription.
Simmons was released on personal recognizance and is due to return to court on Feb. 14.

SPOKANE Wash. -- Falling in the second round of the NCAA Tournament will always involve a little bit of pain.
Unfortunately for the University of Delaware men's basketball squad, the Blue Hens received a double dose of it Thursday afternoon in its second round game at the Spokane Arena.
Making their first appearance at the Big Dance since 1999, the No. 13 seed Blue Hens fought hard to the end before falling to No. 4 seed and 11th ranked Michigan State 93-78.
And the person doing most of the damage for the Spartans was Adreian Payne. The senior center scored an MSU NCAA Tournament and Spokane Arena record 41 points, draining 10 of 15 field goal attempts and hitting all 17 free throw attempts.
His 41-point performance was the highest against the Hens this season - and the most against UD since 2010 - and his total was the most by any player in the NCAA Tournament since 2008.
Colonial Athletic Association champion Delaware (25-10) had a five-game win streak snapped but closed out one of the most successful seasons in school history. The 25 wins was the second highest in school history and the NCAA Tournament appearance was just the fifth ever for the Blue Hens.
"Congratulations to Coach (Tom) Izzo and Michigan State," said Delaware head coach Monté Ross, the CAA Coach of the Year. "They are obviously a very good basketball team and an outstanding program. But I can't say enough about our team and our program.
"We have gotten to the point where we are not into moral victories," said Ross. "Our guys are so competitive and I was really proud of their effort tonight. But I have been proud of them all year long. This is such a special group and I think we represented the University well."
Led by the backcourt trio of seniors Devon Saddler (at left) and Davon Usher (above right) and junior Jarvis Threatt, the Blue Hens stayed in the game until the final minutes.
Saddler, Delaware's all-time leading scorer with 2,222 points, finished his career with a 21-point effort, while Usher contributed 20 and set the UD single season scoring record with 679 points.
After falling behind by 11 points at halftime, the Hens came out and scored the first six points of the second stanza on a Saddler three-point play and a long three-pointer by Usher off an inbounds pass to cut the lead to 44-39.
But the Spartans scored 8 of the next 10 points to push the lead to 11 and held a double figure lead the rest of the way.
Delaware rallied late, scoring six straight points to cut the margin to 85-75 with 2:35 left but Payne, as he did all day, answered with four straight points to remove any doubt of the outcome.
"He was on fire," said Delaware center Carl Baptiste who had the tall task of guarding Payne all day and eventually fouled out with 2:08 left. "Once he got his jumper going he was very tough to stop. He has a very good turnaround jumper and is a very good player."
Michigan State (27-8) now advances to the third round where the Spartans will play Harvard, a second round winner over Cincinnati earlier Thursday, on Saturday.
"I would like to give a lot of credit to Monté," said Izzo. "Those three guards (Saddler, Usher, and Threatt) do a lot of things. Its amazing how much they get to the free throw line and they did that all year long. We survived today but I think we learned something and we'll grow from it."
Delaware cut the Michigan State lead to 24-18 when Threatt converted a driving layup with 9:42 left in the first half. But Payne then went to work, carrying the Spartans on his back. The 6-10 center proceeded to score the next 17 points for the Spartans over a six minute span, and when he was done his team was up 36-18.
But Delaware refused to give up and rallied back. The Blue Hens then used an 11-0 run of their own - highlighted by two Usher three-pointers and a dunk by Marvin King-Davis - to get back in the game and cut the margin to 36-29 with 3:08 left.
Michigan State then scored the final three points of the half to take a 44-33 lead into the break.
Travis Trice came off the bench to add 19 points for Michigan State while Gary Harris and Branden Dawson each scored 10. Payne and Dawson each pulled eight rebounds for MSU as part of a 42-24 advantage on the boards.
Threatt led the Hens with six rebounds while Baptiste and Usher each pulled five rebounds and Saddler dished out a team-high four assists. Delaware committed only eight turnovers all day but shot just 36.4 percent (20 of 55) form the field.
Hen Scratchings:
• Ross cleared the bench in the final moments with backups Tommy Williams, Dylan Miller, Sean Locke, Tom Allshouse, and Cazmon Hayes all seeing action. Locke even scored a point with a free throw with 14 second left
• Delaware's 25 wins tied for the second most in school history, trailing only the 1991-92 team that went 27-4 and advanced to the NCAA Tournament
• Saddler played in his school-record 124th game, tying the mark set by his former teammate Jamelle Hagins last season
• Kyle Anderson and Usher each finished the season with 85 three-pointers, one shy of the UD single season record
• Saddler finished No. 6 on the all-time CAA scoring list with 2,222 points
• The game marked the 15th time this season that more than one Delaware player surpassed the 20-point mark
• The 78 points by Delaware was the fifth most allowed by the Spartans this season

Meredith library trustees seek more money from townBy DAN SEUFERT
Union Leader Correspondent
December 06. 2012 11:03PM
MEREDITH - The town library trustees came before the board of selectmen this week to make them aware that their budget request for next year is higher than usual.
"We went to the board to tell them that we have contributed a great deal from our own trust funds over the past several years, and we can't continue to do that," said Rhetta Colon, chairman of the library trustees.
Though the library is owned by the town, much of the building's maintenance and operating expenses have been funded by library trust funds. Since 2008, the trustees have used the funds to pay for $113,000 in building maintenance and $44,000 in operating expenses. Those funds have reduced the low-interest earnings on the trust funds' principal, library officials said.
The trustees said the library's prepared 2013 budget is $36,831 above last year's "because the trustees can no longer continue to cover the building operating and maintenance" costs, the trustees said in a letter to the community. "At the request of the (board of selectmen) for level funding, the library trustees have compensated for increased personnel costs by reducing the library's operating expenses. The operating expenses which were cut from the town budget were then funded by library trust funds."
Since 2008, the trustees have complied with the selectmen's budget recommendations, Colon said.
Apart from the budget, the library needs repairs and improvements that will cost between $241,000 and $305,000. When those changes are made, there will be "considerable" savings in the library's budget, trustees said.
Selectman Miller Lovett said the board will be considering the library's budget increase request as it continues the town budgeting process.

AUSTIN, Texas – Eleven Texas prisoners have been killed this year inside the state's prisons, the highest number in at least 15 years.
The Austin American Statesman reports Sunday that last year, just three inmates were killed and that this year's total is the highest since 1997, when 10 were killed.
Officials say the increase is puzzling since overall violence, as well as sexual assaults and the number of weapons found in prisons statewide, have all declined in 2012.
Investigations into individual cases have shown that the homicides appear to be random acts of spontaneous violence between cellmates with no apparent pattern.
Officials therefore aren't blaming the fact that more convicts are serving longer sentences or that there are staffing shortages at some facilities.

PHOENIXVILLE - The city lifestyle appeals to Michelle Walsh, the Archbishop Carroll field hockey star and Phoenixville resident. She also likes the option of being close to home.
Those two characteristics figured prominently in Walsh's decision to continue her academic and athletic careers as a Division I field hockey player at Temple University in Philadelphia.
"The main reason is it's close by," said Walsh. "Catholic University, the other school I looked at, is three hours away. I don't think I could handle being away like that. Temple is also DI and Catholic is DIII so that is also a big difference. I've always really liked Temple. I liked the city. It is the best of both worlds."
Walsh will likely line up on defense or at midfield for the Owls.
Walsh, the daughter of Pat and Lisa Walsh, was a four-year starter for Carroll, during which time the school compiled an overall record of 69-13-2, including a gaudy 38-2 in the Philadelphia Catholic League circuit. The Patriots captured three Catholic League championships as well as four PIAA District 12 titles during her career. A member of the WC Eagles club team, Walsh was also an academic all-state selection.
Walsh plans to study kinesiology or health sciences at Temple.
Walsh will join her close friend, Phoenixville standout Ali Meszaros, at Temple. They will follow another Phoenixville program product, Villa Maria Academy's Katie Briglia, as members of the Owls squad.
Asked about her most memorable contests at Carroll, Walsh replied with the games against fellow powerhouse Cardinal O'Hara.
"We beat O'Hara in the championship game after we lost to them in regular season play that week," said Walsh. "That was a big loss for us. We came back and were forced to play them at their home field. They had the home field advantage so it was cool to win the championship there. We were also champions last year. all the state (playoff) games we've been in. To go that far is awesome."
Meszaros had already committed to Temple when Walsh made her choice. Temple is switching to the Big East Conference from the Atlantic 10 next year, and that will be another challenge for all of the Owls players.
"We've been playing together for so long," said Walsh. "The Temple coach got a glimpse of us at the same time. We are also good friends. I consider her one of my best friends."
Walsh came up through the ranks of the Phoenixville Marian Youth Club (PMYC) program and also at Holy Family, which is the rival of St. Basil's, where Meszaros played during her early years.
"I always played field hockey since I was very little, ever since my PMYC days," said Walsh. "I played basketball and softball during grade school, but they definitely were not my sports. I played lacrosse one year at Carroll as a sophomore and I liked that."

November 12, 2012
Young federal and industry professionals working in a range of areas, including IT, human resources and financial management, have a new opportunity to come together to learn skills that may not be emphasized enough in government -- the ability to collaborate, network and develop as a professional.
The American Council for Technology and Industry Advisory Council recently launched the new Associates Program aimed at providing young professionals, specifically those at the GS 7-11 levels and their industry counterparts, with training to help them network and collaborate with their peers.
The new Associates Program is an addition to two other professional development programs run by ACT-IAC. The Voyagers Program is geared toward mid-level government and industry professionals, while the Partners Program aims to groom senior federal employees in GS-14 or GS-15 jobs with the leadership savvy necessary to excel in various areas, such as human capital, project management and business development.
A report released in August by ACT-IAC found that there often is a disconnect between federal HR officials and information technology leaders over what measures are effective for bringing on the next generation of IT leaders. While federal HR leaders say they have succession plans in place, many agency IT operational managers have developed their own internal succession planning amid a perceived lack of HR support, according to the report.
Rory Schultz, chairman of the 2012 Partners Government program, said Friday that the three ACT-IAC development programs all work to help solve the challenges identified in the August report by ensuring that all agency counterparts -- from IT to HR -- are collaborating effectively.
More specifically, Schultz said he applied principles learned in the ACT-IAC programs in his IT job at the Food and Nutrition Service, where the agency decided to combine services and close some field offices. This meant that some employees went to teleworking full-time, he said. "The IT team worked closely with HR and logistics to ensure those employees could continue to do their job, and the programs helped me in that," he said. "The Associates, Partners and Voyagers programs recruit from all other fields, so those in IT can see those other spheres and the coordination is there."
Sherry Weir, chairwoman of the 2012 Partners Industry program, also stressed that the programs are not geared toward developing the best IT professional, but simply developing the best professional and helping participants realize that collaboration is key to success. "Agencies don't always take advantage of opportunities for their professionals to understand different cultures," she said. "We treat agencies as having a single culture, and young professionals don't really understand that cross-collaboration unless they change jobs."
The programs also represent an opportunity for government and industry professionals to gain knowledge of how the other group works, in part by developing pairing government and industry employees. Those partners work together on projects over the nine-month program, including spending time at the offices of their partner. "It allows participants to walk in the other guys' shoes for nine months," Weir said. "Rotational programs in the government are a little narrow. Here, participants are exposed to everyoffice, not just the CIO office."
Both the Associates and Partners programs are accepting applications for the 2013 class, which will kick off in February and run through October. Applications are being accepted until Dec. 15.
"The way we present this program, particularly if you're into novels, is that it's like a fascinating book series that you can't put down," Schultz said. "We've now written the prequel with the associates program, so that when participants finish the program, they want to read the sequel through the Voyagers and Partners programs."

Submission + - DHS Still Stonewalling on Body Scanning Ruling One Year Later (arstechnica.com)
OverTheGeicoE writes: About a year ago, the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on EPIC v. DHS, a lawsuit that sought to end TSA's use of body scanners. The Court found that DHS violated federal law by not seeking public comment before using body scanners as a primary search method. They ordered TSA to take public comment on its body scanning policy but did not require TSA to suspend its use of the scanners during the comment period. Several months later nothing had been done yet. One year later TSA has still done nothing, and even EPIC, the original plaintiff, seems to have given up. Others have apparently picked up the torch, however. Jim Harper, director of information policy studies at the libertarian think tank the Cato Institute, has posted a piece on Ars Technica about TSA's violation of the court order. He also started a petition on Whitehouse.gov asking TSA to comply with the order. An earlier petition ended with a non-response from TSA Administrator John Pistole. Will the latest petition fare any better, even in an election year?

Raven had layoffs in August 2009 after the completion of X-Men Origins: Wolverine and Wolftenstein, explaining that the studio had "slightly [reduced] its workforce to better reflect the studio's upcoming slate."
nope Activision has issued the following statement: "With the recent completion of Singularity, Raven Software is realigning its workforce to better reflect the studio's upcoming slate." Raven Software does not currently have a game announced, but it was rumored in May that the studio was being tasked with working on Call of Duty: Black Ops map packs for DLC.
Kotaku's source claims that the studio will be focusing on downloadable content and has been reduced to a single team. It's doubtful that Raven will be making DLC for any of its previous titles at this point.
It is easy to speculate what is going on within Activision's Call of Duty division, but there are just too many possibilities following the collapse of Infinity Ward. Presumably, Modern Warfare 3 would have been released in fall 2011, but the status of that project is unclear.
Looking at the information here, it is possible that Treyarch would be tasked with assisting on the completion of Modern Warfare 3 with what remains of Infinity Ward, while Raven Software handles post-release DLC for Black Ops. Activision probably doesn't want to miss a holiday season without a new Call of Duty on store shelves.

OK guys I have (for some of you) easy question. At the moment I am working on SoccerTournament java web application. I am working with Spring but I don't think my question is related to Spring.
I created option to add new tournament into database but now I have to enter a specific information to specific tournament (ex. number of teams, name of the teams etc.).
When I click on "Show all" I see all tournaments from database in table with only global information (Name,Location,Date).
I really have no idea what to do, and what to do first. Basically what I need is this: When I click on the name of specific tournament that then I can see a form to enter information about that tournament. How do I need to create my database and how to relate my tables. I have no idea how to organize all that. THANK YOU very much for any advice in advance.

World oilseed trade consists of many closely substitutable commodities, such as soybeans, rapeseed, sunflowerseed, and cottonseed. Countries also trade oils and meals obtained from crushing oilseeds. Foreign import demand depends on the difference between countries' domestic oilseed output and consumption. Divergent demand for protein meal and vegetable oil, as well as limits on domestic processing capacity, determine the ratio of oilseeds to oilseed products that countries import. The volume and source of foreign imports depends on seasonal availability and relative prices, credit and delivery terms, local preferences, and quality. Country policies, such as tariffs and domestic subsidies, also can affect prices and the availability of competing products. USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) monthly report Oilseeds: World Markets and Trade presents forecasts and historical data by country for the major oilseeds and their products, covering production, domestic consumption, and international trade.
U.S. Exports and Imports
The United States is the world's largest producer and exporter of soybeans. Oilseed and oilseed product exports, particularly soybeans, represent a significant source of demand for U.S. producers and make a large net contribution to the U.S. agricultural trade balance. Among all U.S. agricultural products, only grains and feeds outrank the oilseed sector in total export value and volume. In the early 2000s, the value of U.S. oilseed and product exports averaged over $9 billion, nearly half the farm-level value of production. By the late 2000s, the value of oilseed and product exports doubled to over $20 billion. Outlook for U.S. Agricultural Trade provides the latest information on U.S. farm exports, by commodity and region, as well as the trade outlook. Current U.S. export sales of soybeans, soybean meal, and soybean oil are tracked by destination on a weekly basis.
Main export destinations for U.S. oilseeds, oilseed meal, and vegetable oil include China, the European Union (EU), Japan, Mexico, and Taiwan. Other important markets—including Indonesia, South Korea, and Thailand. Canada, Mexico, the Philippines, and several Latin American countries—also import significant quantities of U.S. oilseed meals. U.S. vegetable oil exports are more dispersed and are heavily influenced by concessional food aid to developing nations through such programs as P.L. 480.
U.S. imports of oilseeds and oilseed products were worth $3-$4 billion in the late 2000s, and are mainly rapeseed and rapeseed products (e.g., canola oil) from Canada, olive oil from Western Europe, and tropical oils from the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia. FAS' Global Agricultural Trade System (GATS) can be used to search for statistics on U.S. exports and imports of oilseeds and oilseed products by country or region.
Despite substantial growth in oilseed and oilseed product output in the past 25 years and recent gains in export volume, the U.S. share of global exports has steadily diminished. In the mid- to late 1970s, the United States dominated world trade in unprocessed oilseeds, with a global market share of more than 70 percent. Recently, this figure has fallen below 50 percent. From a smaller percentage base, the United States has seen its share of oilseed meal and vegetable oil exports decline even more sharply, particularly before 1990.
While soybean exports from the United States have grown over the past 25 years, the share of U.S. exports in global oilseeds trade has declined. A key development has been the phenomenal growth of foreign soybean output and exports, particularly by Brazil and Argentina. Foreign soybean output now exceeds that of the United States, and Brazil and Argentina currently share more than half of the soybean export market, up from less than 15 percent before 1980. With increased soybean production and rapid growth in crushing capacity, Brazil and Argentina have each surpassed the United States in soy meal and soy oil exports. Another factor is the recent expansion of U.S. meat exports, which stimulates domestic meal use, rather than exports of soybeans or soybean meal. Brazilian and Argentine soybean and meal exports are projected to continue capturing market share from the United States in the next decade.
Major Foreign Soybean Exporters and Importers
Since the early 1970s, soybean production in South America has expanded rapidly. Brazil now trails only the United States in soybean production. Brazilian soybean growing regions used to be concentrated in the south, relatively near the major ports. In recent years, soybeans have expanded into the vast farmland of the center-west states, as infrastructure improvements have cut internal transportation costs. Brazil's vast reserves of farmland could permit a continued significant expansion in soybean area, though expansion is currently limited because of insufficient transportation infrastructure. Argentina's soybean growing regions and crushers are located close to port facilities, where the country's highly developed crushing industry and relatively small domestic market makes it the world's largest exporter of soybean meal and oil. A lower export tax on processed commodities than on unprocessed commodities also favors the export of soybean oil and meal from Argentina. Recent increases in production by Argentine and Brazilian grain and oilseed producers could foreshadow continued gains on the strength of abundant undeveloped agricultural resources, more stable economies, and expanding trade liberalization, see:Agriculture in Brazil and Argentina: Developments and Prospects for Major Field Crops
China is the world's fourth-largest producer of soybeans. The major Chinese soybean growing regions are in the northeast part of China. Yet, rapid growth of China's economy has spurred food consumption, turning the country into the world's leading soybean importer. Changes in China's agricultural and trade policies have greatly influenced world oilseed markets (see China's New Farm Subsidies). China's WTO accession has reduced import tariffs and quantitative restrictions to its oilseed market.
The major Indian soybean growing region is in the central state of Madhya Pradesh. Indian production of soybeans and other traditionally grown oilseeds—such as peanuts, rapeseed, and cottonseed—has increased in the last decade, although yields are among the world's poorest. India often imposes prohibitive barriers on oilseed imports, so its domestic crushing industry relies on domestic oilseed supplies. Domestically produced oilseeds are highly valued sources of vegetable oil, but domestic consumption has risen faster than domestic production, so that India now ranks among the world's largest vegetable oil importers (see India's Edible Oil Sector: Imports Fill Rising Demand, November 2003, link below). India is a smaller (but growing) consumer of soybean meal, and exports its surplus to other Asian countries.India's Edible Oil Sector: Imports Fill Rising Demand
The European Union is self-sufficient in vegetable oil production, but its protein deficit still makes it the world's largest importer of soybean meal and second-largest importer of soybeans. Since the 1960s, EU imports of soybeans swelled because of rapid growth in livestock production and duty-free concessions signed in trade agreements. In the 1970s and 1980s, soybean consumption slowed as EU agricultural policies subsidized a large expansion in domestically produced rapeseed and sunflowerseed, eroding the market for oilseed imports. The U.S. Government challenged these subsidies and, in 1992, the EU committed to a number of reforms of its Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), including area limits on the planting of oilseeds. Further CAP reforms reduced per-hectare direct payments to oilseed producers to those received by grains producers. Until 2005, reforms encouraged EU farmers to scale back oilseeds planting. However, recent EU biodiesel policies have encouraged EU farmers to dramatically increase oilseeds area, especially rapeseed.
In coming years, EU enlargement and CAP reform are projected to swell internal grain supplies and allow EU grain prices to fall even more. Despite relatively low protein-meal prices, the comparatively larger reduction in the cost of feeding grains to livestock should curb EU soybean meal consumption and imports. Historically, high import tariffs on cereals have boosted EU consumption of soybean meal, which has been favored by duty-free access for soybeans. Over the last decade, lower grain prices and several animal disease epidemics resulted in significant increases in the feeding of grains and oilseed meals and a reduction in the feeding of nongrain feed ingredients, such as meat and bone meal. For more information, see:Livestock Feeding and Feed Imports in the European Union-A Decade of Change
Under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), Mexico phased out its tariff on soybeans and canola by 2003. With reforms in Mexico's domestic crop support programs, imports have virtually displaced domestic soybean production, with nearly all imports coming from the United States. U.S. soybean exports to Mexico have more than doubled since 1993. Strong income growth among Mexican consumers has boosted consumption of meat and vegetable oils and increased demand for soybeans. Improvements in Mexico's rail links at the border have also expedited trade in oilseeds. Imports by Mexico are primarily seed, which are crushed domestically.
Trade Policies
Compared with trade in other agricultural commodities, trade in whole oilseeds, particularly soybeans, is relatively unrestricted by tariffs and other border measures. But oilseed meals, and particularly vegetable oils, typically have higher tariffs. Agricultural tariff schedules for World Trade Organization (WTO) member countries report the current maximum permissible duties.
In addition to tariffs, both exporters and importers have used other trade—distorting policies, such as differential export taxes in Argentina and in Brazil (prior to 1996), production subsidies in the EU, and phytosanitary barriers in India. These policies create incentives to boost domestic oilseed production or encourage exports of processed products, which tend to displace U.S. oilseed exports and shift the composition of U.S. exports toward whole oilseeds and away from higher value-added oilseed meals and vegetable oils.
The Doha round of WTO negotiations began in 2001 and is still ongoing. Among other issues, negotiations focus on matters previously addressed by the Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture (URAA), such as limits on tariff and nontariff barriers to trade, export subsidies, and the type and level of spending by countries on domestic agricultural support programs. These provisions limit member countries' use of trade-distorting policies. U.S. objectives for future negotiations include further reducing tariffs and improving market access, eliminating the use of export subsidies, and further limiting trade-distorting domestic programs. Analyses of U.S. Tariff-Rate Quotas for Peanuts have also shown their significant influence on U.S. peanut imports, particularly prior to the elimination of the peanut-marketing quota system in 2002, see:Peanut Policy Change and Adjustment Under the 2002 Farm Act

The NFL is nothing if not a copycat league. It's why the terms "West Coast Offense" and "Tampa Two" have become generic, and why the Detroit Lions and Arizona Cardinals have both donned black jerseys in the past 10 years.Although it's true the NFL is constantly evolving, it's only ever really being pushed forward by three or four of its brightest thinkers. For every Bill Walsh, there are 100 Eric Manginis. That is not to say the plagiarists get left behind, however. They often make up for their lack of innovation via wholesale appropriation. Whoever's first can still end up last, while the smartest aren't always the strongest. So which fad pioneered by the few will soon be exploited by the whole? Tight ends that are bigger than a Hummer but quicker than a Jetta. "Gargoyles" who stretch the field and create mismatches whenever they're in the game. The chances the phrase "the next Rob Gronkowski or Jimmy Graham" isn't muttered at least once in every single NFL front office this offseason are zero. The problem, of course, is that players of Gronkowski and Graham's ilk are exceedingly difficult to find. It will be downright impossible in a free agent market where the best tight end has already been re-signed and the second best is expected to be franchise tagged. Tight Ends Expected to be Franchise Tagged1. Fred Davis Overview: One of fantasy football's favorite preseason sleepers in 2011, Davis exceeded expectations by hauling in 59 catches for 796 yards and three touchdowns. Only a bad habit of smoking grass after he played on it could mar his breakout campaign. Were he not suspended for the final quarter of the season, Davis would have finished with a final line of 79/1,061/4 had his per-game averages held. The only consistent playmaker in Mike Shanahan's atypically moribund offense last season, there's a zero percent chance Davis will be allowed to sign elsewhere despite his off-the-field issues. Tight End Free Agents1. Jeremy ShockeyScouting Report: Despite appearing in more than 14 games for the first time since 2006 last season, a 31-year-old Shockey still managed to catch a career-low 37 passes while tallying fewer than 500 yards for the second consecutive year (and third time in four). No longer capable of abusing linebackers the way he did before age and injury sapped his explosiveness, Shockey settled in behind Greg Olsen on the depth chart before injuries slowed Olsen down the stretch. Never a gifted blocker and now little more than a big target (6-foot-5, 251 pounds) in the passing game, Shockey has nowhere to go but down entering his age-32 season. Availability: Believed to be seeking a deal similar to the one-year, $3.8 million pact he signed last March, Shockey could price himself out of the cap-strapped Panthers' plans if he doesn't lower his asking price. A proven pass catcher in a thin market placing a renewed emphasis on tight ends, it's not impossible that Shockey might get his $4 million, but it's certainly unlikely. Unless the Panthers have designs on finding a young Gronk or Graham in the draft, they should make a meaningful effort to re-sign their fifth-leading receiver from 2011. Prediction: Panthers on a one-year, $2.5 million deal. 2. Visanthe ShiancoeScouting Report: De-emphasized in favor of promising rookie Kyle Rudolph down the stretch, Shiancoe went without a catch in the Vikings' final three games last season, and saw his yardage total decline for the third straight year. His 36/409/3 line was easily his worst since arriving in Minnesota in 2007. Always a liability on running downs, Shiancoe is trending toward irrelevance on passing downs, as well, and has little chance of earning a starting job in 2012. Availability: Rudolph's rapid development makes it almost certain that Shiancoe will be allowed to walk in free agency, though there won't be many obvious landing spots for a soon to be 32-year-old player with methodically declining numbers. Shiancoe will be of greater interest to pass-first clubs where he won't be a liability in run blocking, though he would make sense as a veteran backup in Kansas City as Tony Moeaki works his way back from a torn ACL. Prediction: Chiefs on a one-year, $1.5 million deal. 3. Martellus BennettScouting Report: A perennial breakout candidate since entering the league as a second-round pick in 2008, Bennett underachieved for the fourth straight year in 2011, catching just 17 passes for a career-low 144 yards. Among others, Bennett found himself out-shined in the Cowboys' passing game by September signing Laurent Robinson and special teamer Jesse Holley. Inconsistent, immature and never lauded for his hands, Bennett has only really ever excelled at run blocking. Availability: Although a (slowly) declining Jason Witten will turn 30 in May, the wide expectation is that Bennett will hit the open market. Despite a frustrating four years in Dallas, it's still possible Bennett's impressive blocking and measurables (6'6, 267 pounds, 4.67 40 at the 2008 Combine) could earn him a multi-year deal. If nothing else, he should be in line for no shortage of one-year offers from teams who think the main thing he needs at the age of 25 is a change of scenery. In need of more athleticism in their receiver corps and shoring up their run game, the Jets could be a possibility. Prediction: Jets on a two-year, $5 million contract. 4. Joel Dreessen Scouting Report: One of fantasy football's more well-known tight-end handcuffs thanks to Owen Daniels' injury-prone ways, Dreessen managed to find the end zone an absurd six times in 2011 despite making just 28 catches. A thick 6-foot-4/245, Dreessen is a load of a blocker with usually reliable hands. Dreessen only really excels at blocking, but has no glaring weaknesses, and is a typical "glue" player who executes his assignments. Availability: The Houston media expects Dreessen to stay put, though it could prove troublesome for the cap-strapped Texans if he draws more robust than anticipated interest on the open market. However, Dreessen's age — he'll turn 30 in July — should ensure no one goes overboard in attempting to lure him from the team that made him a sixth-round pick in 2005. That being said, the Texans would be wise to lock Dreessen up before the start of free agency if they're serious about keeping him. Prediction: Texans on a three-year, $6 million contract. 5. John Carlson Scouting Report: A pure pass catcher, Carlson slumped to a 31/318/1 line in 2010 after averaging 53/601/6 his first two years in the league. He never got a chance to rebound last season after tearing his labrum in August — not that he would have bounced back in a Seahawks offense that calls on its tight ends to do little more than block. One of the worst blocking tight ends in the league, Carlson is of little use in systems like the one now being used by Pete Carroll in Seattle. Availability: Carroll hinted in January the Seahawks would like Carlson back in 2012, but with big-money addition Zach Miller seeing his numbers plummet last season the way Carlson's did in 2010, returning to the club that made him a second-round pick in 2008 won't be Carlson's Plan A. Although he missed just one game his first three years in the league, Carlson's bum shoulder coupled with his one-dimensional game figures to limit him to one-year, incentive-laden offers. He'd be an ideal fit in a Giants offense that could be low on proven pass-catching tight ends in 2012 if Jake Ballard and Travis Beckum are both lost for the season. Prediction: Giants on a one-year, $2.5 million contract.6. Jacob Tamme Scouting Report: A key cog in the Peyton Manning machine in 2010 after injury knocked Dallas Clark out in Week 6, Tamme plummeted back to earth in 2011 in the absence of Manning and return of Clark. A pure pass catcher who does little in the way of blocking, Tamme is best utilized in a backup role where he can also contribute on special teams. Availability: Seeing as Tamme limped to a 19/177/1 line last season, speculation on his future has been sparse. He'll still only be 27 in 2012, however, and will come exceedingly cheap. With the Colts likely to release Dallas Clark, they won't let their only other proven pair of hands at the tight end position get away as they look to break in a rookie quarterback. Prediction: Colts on a two-year, $2 million deal. Other free agent tight ends: Scott Chandler, Kellen Davis, Daniel Fells, Bo Scaife, Leonard Pope, Randy McMichael, Alex Smith, Dante Rosario, Kris Wilson, Donald Lee, Reggie Kelly, Anthony Becht, Stephen Spach, John Gilmore, Justin Peelle, Billy Bajema, Tory Humphrey.
Restricted Free Agent Tight Ends1. Bear Pascoe Scouting Report: A third-stringer originally slated to see time at fullback in 2011, Pascoe instead ended up playing over 500 snaps at tight end. He made precious few contributions, however, notching just 12 catches while again failing to turn into the fearsome blocker he was forecasted as when he was drafted out of Fresno State. If not for a Week 17 hurdle over hapless Cowboys CB Terence Newman and a four-catch Super Bowl performance, Pascoe would have remained anonymous. Availability: Pascoe was a non-tender candidate until the Super Bowl, where both Jake Ballard and Travis Beckum suffered torn ACLs. Now the most experienced and able-bodied tight end to suit up for the G-Men in 2011, Pascoe should be back for a fourth season in the Big Apple despite his athletic limitations and stagnation as a blocker. Prediction: Giants on a one-year, $1.26 million contract. 2. David Johnson Scouting Report: Despite being a blocking specialist, Johnson managed to make at least one catch in 10 of 16 games in 2011. The problem? Eight times, he tallied exactly one catch. The result was a career best but still uninspiring line of 12/91/1. Johnson is a highly-average blocker who turns into a below-average one on running downs. Availability: Although Johnson hasn't excelled in any area since entering the league as a seventh-round pick in 2009, he also hasn't struggled. Still just 24 years old, he figures to return to Pittsburgh with Heath Miller entering his age-30 campaign. Prediction: Steelers on a three-year, $2.5 million contract. 3. Kory SperryScouting Report: Signed off the practice squad in November 2010, Sperry ended up sticking with the Bolts through the end of 2011. Despite above-average athleticism and a reputation as a catch-first tight end, however, he made just five grabs for 104 yards during his 23-game stay on the active roster. Those numbers are made even less impressive by the fact that Antonio Gates was inactive nine times during that span. Worst of all, Sperry proved to be a liability as a blocker, especially in the running game. Availability: Two months shy of his 27th birthday, Sperry has given little indication he's ever going to break out, but if there's one thing teams are always willing to take a chance on, it's players with above-average athleticism. With San Diego's tight end corps not getting any younger, the Bolts should give Sperry another shot. Prediction: Chargers on a one-year, $1.927 million deal.Other restricted free agent tight ends: Matthew Mulligan, Jeron Mastrud, Michael Palmer. Release Candidates 1. Dallas Clark Overview: Things went from bad to worse for Clark in 2011. One year after seeing a typically promising season cut short by an unusual wrist injury, Clark struggled through neck and leg ailments while watching his numbers fall off a cliff in the absence of Peyton Manning. Limited to 17 games the past two years, due a non-guaranteed $3.3 million salary in 2012 and five months shy of his 33rd birthday, all signs are pointing toward Clark being another victim of the Colts' wholesale rebuild. Old, increasingly injury prone and without a track record of success without Manning under center, Clark will likely be limited to incentive-laden offers if/when he becomes a free agent. Prediction: Released in early March. 2. Kellen Winslow Overview: Although Winslow's balky knees made it increasingly difficult for him to separate last season, they didn't prevent him from posting a superficially solid line of 75/763/2. "Superficial" because while Winslow remained adept at swallowing up the ball and falling down, he did little else for a young team that came apart at the seams following a 3-1 start. Just five of Winslow's 75 grabs went for 20 yards or longer, while he averaged a minuscule 3.2 yards after the catch. If not for his nine-catch, 132-yard outburst against the Packers' historically bad pass defense in Week 11, Winslow would have finished with weekly averages of 4.4/42 instead of the 4.7/47.7 he ended up with. With all the guarantees from the six-year, $36.1 million contract he signed in 2009 paid, Winslow is a good bet to hit the open market. Prediction: Released on the eve of free agency. 3. Chris CooleyOverview: Once one of the NFL's most durable pass catchers, Cooley suited up for fewer than eight games for the second time in three years in 2011, and wasn't productive when he did manage to get onto the field. The eight catches for 65 yards Cooley posted in five games was roughly what dynamic young teammate Fred Davis averaged per week. Due an untenable $3.8 million heading into his age-30 season, Cooley is squarely on the chopping block as an unusually awash in cash Redskins team looks to get even further under the salary cap. For his part, Cooley has said he has "no doubt" he'll be back in Washington, so it's possible he'll be amenable to returning at a bargain-basement salary. Prediction: Stays with Redskins after pay cut. 4. Todd HeapOverview: Heap was able to parlay a renaissance 2010 campaign into a two-year deal with the Cardinals last summer. But if 2010 was his renaissance, 2011 was his dark ages, as a curiously lingering hamstring injury limited him to just 10 games and career-lows nearly across the board. Heap's scheduled 2012 salary of $2.15 million is reasonable for someone with his pedigree, but increasingly injury prone and on the wrong side of 30, he'll at least be "asked" to take a pay cut. How much faith the Cardinals have in 2011 third-round pick Rob Housler could play a large part in Heap's future. Prediction: Released at final cuts. 5. Anthony Fasano Overview: After averaging 34.6/440.3/4.3 his first three years in Miami, Fasano had his typical campaign in 2011, snagging 32 balls for 451 yards and five touchdowns. Perfectly acceptable numbers, but less so when they are a player's absolute ceiling and he's due $3.6 million the next season. New coach Joe Philbin figures to install a more open and tight-end friendly offense in Miami, but Fasano's limited athleticism and speed make it highly unlikely he'd be able to take advantage of it. With GM Jeff Ireland on the record as wanting an "explosive young tight end," Fasano is at least in line for a restructuring. Prediction: Stays with Dolphins after pay cut. 6. Ben Watson Overview: Coming off an out-of-nowhere career year in 2010, Watson regressed sharply in 2011, and was sent to injured reserve in Week 14 after suffering his third concussion of the season. After averaging 4.3 catches for 47.7 yards in 2010, Watson's per-game averages plunged to 2.8/31.5 as he struggled to stay on the field and the Browns made a point of getting backup Evan Moore more involved. Watson's current scheduled salary of $2.88 million is too much for a 31 year old on a team that needs to feature Moore more in 2012. Prediction: Released on the eve of free agency. Other release candidates: Matt Spaeth, Will Heller.

Mick, from the limited info I have, the sedan lights fit both 2- and 4-door models. Brake/taillight on top, signal on the bottom, and reverse light center inboard. Wagon lights are brake/tail on top, signal on the bottom, and reverse apparently a separate unit somewhere in the tailgate--I don't have a clear shot of the wagon with the tailgate closed. Anyone out there have the '70 or '71 Body section of the factory repair manual?

4. Money Mules Strike ATMs Globally
Once the cybercriminal organization distributed the account information, the receiving individuals, or mules, encoded the data onto magnetic stripe cards, such as gift cards and hotel key cards, to withdraw the funds from ATMs. Investigators found the men conducting numerous transactions in Brooklyn, Queens and Long Island, among other U.S. locations. At first, the transactions were low, indicating the men were testing the cards. Even still, the scheme involved more than 5,700 attempted ATM transactions using the RAKBank account data, resulting in a total loss of approximately $5 million.
