Will Join Four Teammates in Main Draw Play Friday
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The 2013 edition of the United States Tennis Association (USTA)/Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Northeast Regional Championships kicked off Thursday with qualifying action at Yale's Cullman-Heyman Tennis Center. The host team fielded four players in the singles qualifying bracket, with two successfully winning their pair of matches, giving the Bulldogs a total of six entries into the main draw.
Division I squads from around the region converged on the Cullman-Heyman Thursday for the start of the Northeast Regionals, one of the most significant events on the fall schedule. All participants, which include players from all eight Ivy League schools, are competing for the chance to take part in the prestigious USTA/ITA National Indoor Intercollegiate Championships in November. Thursday's action saw main draw hopefuls battling it out in qualifying, which made for some very entertaining tennis.
One of those players was Yale freshman Alex Hagermoser, who more than earned his way into the main draw with a pair of resilient three-set victories in qualifying. Initially, it seemed that Hagermoser's debut Regional tournament would be over before it had really begun, when his first round opponent, Ben Gilman of Lehigh, took the first set of their encounter 6-2. Just as he has done several times already in his freshman season, however, Hagermoser fought back strongly, rolling through the next two sets to claim the 2-6, 6-1, 6-0 victory. He carried this momentum over into his second match against David Raymond of Niagara, taking the first set, but Raymond managed to force a decider. Hagermoser soundly regrouped, ultimately clinching the triumph 6-4, 2-6, 6-2. Hagermoser was the only qualifier to earn his main draw berth by winning two three-set matches. In addition, he extends his current singles winning streak to five matches.
Junior Daniel Faierman also qualified for the main draw, though in different fashion. After holding tough in a tight first set against Inaki Belloso of Niagara, he found his range and qualified fairly comfortably, winning his match against Belloso 7-6, 6-2, and then notching a 6-3, 6-2 win over Thomas Spratt of Penn.
Also taking part in qualifying for the Elis were sophomore Jason Brown and junior Zachary Krumholz. Brown fought valiantly after losing his first set against Kelvin Lam of Harvard, but ultimately lost, 6-1, 6-4. Krumholz, on the other hand, did record a first round victory, over Jake Whalley of Fairleigh Dickinson, 7-6, 6-2, but dropped his second match to Dylan Brown of Cornell, 6-3, 6-4.
Friday is set to be the first day of main draw play, with first round doubles matches starting at 8:00 a.m at the Cullman-Heyman Tennis Center. Three Bulldog tandems will be in action—Brown and Hagermoser, the senior team of Patrick Chase and captain Kyle Dawson and the freshman-sophomore combination of Tyler Lu and Martin Svenning. One round of singles will follow thereafter, which means that Faierman and Hagermoser will join Dawson, Svenning and freshman Photos Photiades in their quest to advance. By virtue of his 9-16 seed, Lu has an automatic bye into the second round.
Yale's Thursday results can be found below, and full updated draws (including the main singles draw with qualifier placements) can be found at the following links:

A pre-exam conference has been scheduled for June 4 for the Walled Lake man accused of stabbing his neighbor to death and storing the body in a closet.
Alex Adamowicz, 21, appeared briefly before a judge Wednesday morning for a pre-exam conference. He waived his right to a preliminary exam within 14 days of arraignment.
Adamowicz is charged with open murder in the death of John Watson, 51. The death was discovered on Mother's Day, when Adamowicz's mother visited him and, sensing something was wrong, convinced her son to turn himself in.

I've been itching to get this blog post out. Since TimTech acquired ThumbVu last week, I've been spending quite a bit of time surfing and checking out the inner workings of this popular traffic exchange. Today I want to share a few tips and tricks that I think can really make your results soar!
The first is obvious I think, because ThumbVu is a social traffic exchange, the more active in chat you are, the better. People respond to people who look to be on the fore front of any program, and no one has yet to stake claim as being the 'ThumbVu' expert. Get out there, and be visible. There is no reason why you cannot connect with THOUSANDS of like minded people, right now on ThumbVu!
The second tip I think that could really make your results soar is the biggest…Make your designs pop! The way this program is set up, people aren't guaranteed to visit your site unless they choose it from the selection of 3 thumbnails before they load a page…Talk about a HUGE opportunity!
I suggest kreating a splash or squeeze page that doesn't look like everything else. So much so that I have avoided standard affiliate pages when they come up in the thumbnails. Yup, that's right, I've actually seen standard pages that I have avoided like the plague. DUSAP!!!!
Remember, your site gets loaded into a thumbnail BEFORE people see the site in it's entirety, so this presents you with a big opportunity to stick out from the crowd. If you thought having a 'Purple Cow' kind of splash page was important in other traffic exchanges, it's so much more important in the environment!
Take these two tips and I can almost guarantee huge results from your advertising in ThumbVu. You are only limited by the restrictions of your imagination when it comes to designing killer campaigns…What will you kreate today? And how will you embrace the huge social opportunity that ThumbVu presents?

A special collection to have. Thank you for sharing.ReplyDelete
Interesting that the dog tags have changed since WWI. Very interesting items. I have nothing in my family collections from America's involvement in WWI. My paternal grandfather fought with the Canadians. Fascinating blog.ReplyDelete
What a wonderful and meaningful collection! Thanks for sharing it.ReplyDelete
My great-uncle's dog tags are very similar, as were mine 30 years ago - he was in the AIF killed during the Battle of Messines. My grandfather fought as a machine gunner in the Canadian Expeditionary Force, and was eventually wounded during the Arras Offensive in August 1918.ReplyDelete
We haven't seen the Matthew Broderick episode yet, but I'm looking forward to it.

As afternoon turned to evening on Wednesday, the Rams were among the quietest teams since the opening of the 2014 free agency period, which started Tuesday afternoon.
Within the first ninety minutes of the new NFL year, 26 different players had been inked to new contracts, with none of them joining the Rams. That all changed quickly.
In an unforeseen turn of events, the Rams re-signed guard
PHOTOS: Through the Years with Jo-Lonn Dunbar
The retention of both Rams addressed a pair of needs entering the offseason, and could signal at least a preliminary shaping of the team's draft strategy. Armed with both the second and 13th overall draft choices, the Rams will have ample ability to address priorities at a number of positions, though the team's most recent activity could hone that scope of need.
The signing of Saffold leaves a single guard position unfilled, though Head Coach Jeff Fisher alluded to the possibility of that position also being filled through free agency.
"I think we're in good shape right now," Fisher said. "Obviously, we lost Chris (Williams) and Shelley (Smith), but we feel like we're not quite done in free agency. We had Davin Joseph in yesterday, who was released by the Bucs. Daryn Colledge was in yesterday. We've had him in, we're still not done there. We've got a couple other guys that we're talking to. Obviously, we're going to address it as best we can in the draft as well."
Dunbar's signing, though lower in profile than Saffold's five-year agreement, addresses a need at outside linebacker amid a thinner-than-typical crop of outside options in free agency. Dunbar will be reunited with defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, who coached Dunbar from 2008-11 as the defensive coordinator for the New Orleans Saints. Dunbar appeared in 12 games, including 10 starts, at outside linebacker last season. He was the Rams' second-leading tackler in 2012.
With a key member of last year's defense back in tow for 2014, the team's wish list through the draft may have become slightly better defined.
In addition to adding to the offensive line, the Rams could look to boost their backup quarterback position through the draft if left unaddressed through free agency, following Kellen Clemens' defection to the San Diego Chargers yesterday. The free agent crop of quarterbacks added an intriguing name Friday, with the Tennessee Titans' release of Ryan Fitzpatrick, who began his NFL career with two seasons in St. Louis. A nine-year NFL veteran, Fitzpatrick would fit the mold of previous backups employed by Fisher both in St. Louis and in Tennessee.
While meeting with media at the NFL Combine, Rams general manager Les Snead stated that the Rams didn't see a position that posed a 'glaring weakness' entering the draft in May. While the needs at offensive guard and outside linebacker positions may not have been defined as glaring, the Rams undoubtedly will approach the draft from an improved position of strength, thanks to the events of the past 24 hours.
What a difference a day makes.

'Canes continue climb
Vets establishing itself as gymnastics contender
The Warwick Vets gymnastics program has taken a leap the last two seasons, going 19-3 in dual meets after two consecutive winless campaigns before that.
And it looks like that was just the beginning.
A deep and skilled freshman class is joining the ranks this season, junior Candis Kowalik – the 2012 state champion – is healthy and ready to go after missing last year's state meet with an injury, and some solid veterans are helping set the tone. Put it all together, and the 'Canes are shaping up as an early favorite for the Division II championship.
"As long as we stay solid as a group and stay healthy, I think we have a good shot at the division and hopefully states," said head coach Stacy Capone-Melino.
The 'Canes beat Exeter/West Greenwich, Toll Gate and West Warwick on Sunday to improve to 6-0, good for first place in Division II. They've competed in three total meets and have scored big each time – 132.67 in their season opener, 130.27 on Saturday and 133.70 on Sunday. The only team that has come close to them so far is EWG – the defending D-II champ – which scored 126.20 on Sunday.
The scores also stack up to history. Since the Division II championship was introduced in 2003, only one team – Mt. Hope in 2010 – scored higher at the state meet than Vets did on Sunday.
"We definitely have a strong team," Capone-Melino said.
But the 'Canes won't get ahead of themselves. They're focused on getting better and on becoming as strong as they can possibly be.
"Right now, we're pulling from what we do have and we're seeing who's going all-around, who's doing one or two events, their specialties," Capone-Melino said. "We have to make sure we rotate people in and get everybody into their strongest spots."
Leading the way for the 'Canes is Kowalik, who's already the most accomplished gymnast in school history. She won the individual state championship as a freshman and was well on her way to a second title last year when a broken ankle suffered in the final meet of the regular season knocked her out of states.
She's back and ready to chase another crown this year.
"Candis is healthy, ready to go," Capone-Melino said. "She just throws everything she has every time. She looks great."
In addition to her scores, Kowalik brings leadership to the table. The team's freshmen have learned from Kowalik for years, while they came up through Warwick Dance & Gymnastics. It continues now that they've hit high school.
"She's really doing a good job helping the younger guys out," Capone-Melino said. "That's important to them because they look up to her."
The 'Canes are also getting guidance from senior captains Kayleigh Desjarlais and Michaela McNally. Both have been with the team for four years and can contribute in multiple events. Desjarlais was Vets' top all-around scorer at the state meet last year.
"Both are captains," Capone-Melino said. "They've been on the team since they were freshmen and they've been unbelievable with organizing and helping the kids out. They're awesome."
The 'Canes also have junior Sloan Kinney, who competed at states in the floor exercise last year, plus junior Paige Daniels and sophomores Erin Hunt and Ryenne Lonergan.
Then there are the freshmen, a group seven-deep with significant gymnastics experience. Danielle Breault, Tess Bussick, Ashley Clift, Tierra Frey, Haley Gayer, Katie Moore and Dayna Razza are all in the fold and contributing immediately.
Together, they give Vets a level of depth and gymnastics experience that was difficult to find just a few years ago.
"We have a big group of freshmen, so it's going to be a nice four-year run," Capone-Melino said. "They're all good girls and they've done gymnastics for a long time. We're actually having to sit people out because there aren't enough spots. You can't complain about that. It's a nice problem to have."
The scores have reflected the newfound depth. Vets typically scored in the 120's last season, even when Kowalik was healthy. They haven't dipped below 130 this season.
"If we can stick it out and have a solid meet on beam, then we'll be in good shape," Capone-Melino said. "And they're really pushing it on the bars. We're probably the only team in this division that has two girls who are swinging giants on bars. That's a major advantage. That's where we were weak last year."
If it all comes together right, the rising 'Canes could climb to their highest point yet in 2014.
"We started strong," Capone-Melino said. "We've just got to carry it out."

In The Face of Battle, John Keegan noted how the environment of combat changed over the course of history. One way it changed in America during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries is immediately apparent—battles got a whole lot bigger.
If you had four and a half hours to lead a tour of a major Civil War battlefield, what would you highlight? You'd never have this problem with a Rev War battlefield, at least not a Southern Campaign site. You could probably lead three back-to-back-to-back tours of King's Mountain or Cowpens in four and a half hours.
Take a look at King's Mountain, Cowpens, and Gettysburg on Google Maps, all at the same zoom level. The Cowpens field would likely fit between the Round Tops and Emmitsburg Road, and I think you'd still have room for King's Mountain.
Numbers engaged illustrate the difference, too. Greene had something like 4,500 men at Guilford Courthouse; the Confederates fielded ten times that many at Shiloh. Washington had over 14,000 at Brandywine, which sounds like a lot until you consider that the Union suffered over 12,000 casualties at Antietam.

I guess rehab for an addiction to painkillers because of an injury is totally not the same as getting sh-tfaced at TIFF every night to the point of belligerence, right? They were smart to spin it this way, to control the story before the Enquirer did it for them. Because now his supporters can support him even more. Poor, poor brute. He must have been suffering so much. Of COURSE he had to self-medicate. Of COURSE he would never, never use anything harder, anything less legal. And dont be ridiculous, his weight loss had NOTHING to do with cocaine.

I want to come along for the ride! I sort of had a forced retirement last year, when my business partner felt she couldn't keep working. It has created financial issues and a bit of a difficulty in finding direction. While I was working, I didn't notice being single as an issue. Now, it seems to be. This should be interesting.ReplyDeleteReplies
I feel exactly the same way. My life was very full with family and friends and work. There was no time to feel lonely but now I'm thinking I'd like a relationship. We may even have a try at internet dating this year. My first new activity is pottery lessons which start this Friday. Stay tuned and let me know how you are doing.Delete
Welcome Back!ReplyDelete
Happy belated New Year to you!

Thanks Christine. It should be fun. JDelete
I would miss your posts if you quit. :-)ReplyDelete
I write my blog for myself, first and foremost, because I just like to write. I don't know why some blogs turn into "superstars" and some don't. Honestly, some blogs out there have huge followings and I look at them and wonder "Why them?" I don't think what they are writing or doing is that great. Then other blogs with great content have few followers. Who knows why?? My content changes from month to month depending on what my interests are at the time. Look at it this way - if you're not writing a blog for financial gain, then you have nobody to please but yourself.
I can't wait to see what you discover this year.Replies
Thanks Kim. I've missed talking to you and some of the others I would e-mail with regularly. I know what you mean about blogs and I don't care about the number of followers and I don't have ads or anything. When I wasn't blogging, I found myself using my personal Facebook so much more and almost like my blog. Then I was starting to wonder if some of my "friends" were thinking "why is she suddenly posting so much and about mundane things?". I think my thoughts are better shared on my blog where my audience isn't "captive" like FB. I'm looking forward to 2014. So far it's been great! xo JDelete
I've been blogging for 8 years (!!!) I've found that it ebbs and flows and I just follow my natural rhythm. I've never had a huge following and that's okay too. The people that do stop by for a visit have become real friends and I still blog primarily as a form of diary that I expect I'll revisit when I'm old and alone and have porridge dripping down my chin. Funny...I thought my word for this year was going to be persevere, too. Have an awesome day! CarolynnReplyDelete

Young Veterinary Clinic, of Chillicothe, hosted a series of weigh-ins and noseprintings for steers owned by local persons this past Saturday morning (March 9). Noseprinting is necessary for steers that could advance to the State Fair. In order to show at the state level, exhibitors must have proof that they owned the steers by a certain date. Like human fingerprints, no two noseprints are the same, and can, thus, be used as proof of ownership such recorded ownership.

BERWYN – There's nothing surprising about a kid wanting to play baseball in the summertime. Samantha "Sam" Mirabelli just wanted to be like her older brother and sister and join in the fun. But for the 7-year-old with Down syndrome, that wasn't possible until the "Buddy League" came to Berwyn.
Every Sunday in May and June, 16 kids in kindergarten through fifth grade suit up for T-Ball at Proksa Park from 4 to 5 p.m. The first two Sundays the kids focused on the game's fundamentals. For the rest of the eight-week season, they split into two teams and played the great American game. They eventually will end the season with passing out Trophies and a celebratory pizza party.
It all started with Samantha's mother, Deb Mirabelli, responding to her little girl's dream to play ball like the other kids.
"I called [Berwyn Recreation Department Director] Tony Martinucci and asked 'can we form a Buddy League.' He said yes, he could help out with trophies, T-shirts and hats, which blew me away," Mirabelli said.
Her next call was to Park District Executive Director Jeffrey Janda, Mirabelli said. Janda cleared the way for field use. After discussion, it was jointly decided to waive fees.
Each special needs child is paired up with a volunteer, which include mostly other children of a similar age. Out of 16 players, about seven are autistic, Mirabelli said, while the rest have Down syndrome. They come from all over, as far as Wheaton and Hyde Park, and, of course, Berwyn.
The volunteers participate on a come-as-you-can basis, Mirabelli said, but they show up and are ready to help.
"We pair them up and they help with practice," Mirabelli said. "They run the bases with the team members because they can't always remember where to go, but that's only if they need it. They help them catch, whatever."
Anabel O'Donnell is one of those volunteers, and she's something of a pro. She's a real ball player: She pitches, covers third, catches and plays shortstop, the 8-year-old from Emerson School said. As for her volunteer gig, she does it for all the right reasons.
"I get to help people play baseball," she said.
She's reliable, too, because she said she goes to every practice with her mom. She's made friends, as well.
"Some people are from my school," she said.
For the volunteers, a lot of the time is spent keeping the team members focused, something the parents of a special needs child are used to.
"Being the parent of a special needs child, it's neat to see all the parents sitting, just being able to watch their child play," Mirabelli said. "You don't understand unless you have a kid with special needs. You're always running. It gives the volunteer kids a real eye opener. The parents have been so grateful."
On the day of the first game, Mirabelli said she woke up at 7:30 a.m. to find Sam standing by the bed, dressed in her uniform with her cleats clacking on the floor, hurrying her mother to get ready for the game, hours away.
"The kids have just been so excited," Mirabelli said. "The volunteers are so amazing. They are so patient. I'm so proud of them. My biggest fear was after the first week, no one would come back. Now they always ask: next week?"
Mirabelli said she is grateful for the support that has come from the Recreation Department, Park District, volunteers and community.
"I've been blown away with the generosity of these people," she said.
Most importantly, the children with special needs don't have to worry about being left out of something that all kids should have a chance to enjoy.
"Sam's been this mini-mascot for her older brother and sister for years. Now it's her turn," Mirabelli said. "Most of them have siblings that play, we just wanted to give them a way to play like the rest."

Welcome to another installment of Arcane Brilliance, the weekly mage column that dares to ask the question: how much mage is too much? Then Arcane Brilliance slaps itself in the face, because that's a stupid question. You can never have too much mage.
So, your mage is leveling nicely. You've wandered out of the starting area and into the wider zone beyond, done a bunch of quests, learned a rudimentary spell rotation (Frostbolt-->Fireball-->Fireball-->Fireball-->Conjure Water-->Drink) and now you've gone and hit level 10. This is a milestone for a number of reasons:
- The mage staff quest we talked about two weeks ago.
- You can now begin doing PvP in an actual battleground against players in your level bracket (as opposed to doing PvP against bored 12-year-olds who think it's fun to run around the starting areas with their level 80 death knights ganking lowbies).
- Your first talent point!

TELSTRA mobile phone users in Warrnambool were given an early Christmas bonus yesterday when a more powerful 3G service was switched on from a tower at the central exchange.
The equipment installed this week by technicians working on the mammoth repair effort at the fire-damaged exchange will give 60 per cent extra capacity, Telstra regional manager Bill Mundy told The Standard.
About 6000 landlines to country towns, disconnected when a cable was cut near Meredith Wednesday afternoon, were restored about midnight.
Mr Mundy said council workmen had severed a fibre-optic line to the South Melbourne exchange not long after the services had been diverted from Warrnambool to ease the load.
"Work on putting redundancy into network loops to avoid such an outage is continuing," he said. "I would remind outdoor workers and contractors to dial 1100 before digging to check on cables."
Meanwhile, the flow of compensation requests from business customers affected by the November 22 fire outage is continuing with about 60 people lodging claims for under $1000. About 30 have been paid already.
The response for claims higher than $1000 is much slower, but Mr Mundy expects most business operators will take their time to evaluate losses. Telstra has allowed up to three years for claims to be lodged. He cautioned applicants to check their banking details as some claims had been delayed because of incorrect information.
Mr Mundy said technicians would remain in Warrnambool for as long as needed attending to faults in links to customer premises identified through customer complaints to the 1800 171 355 call centre.
"We will be still here during the Christmas holiday break," he said.

Skip to comments.Mainstream media watchdogs are toothless covering Obama and Libya scandal
Posted on 10/27/2012 7:10:53 AM PDT by tobyhill
When Mitt Romney chose not to directly engage President Obama on Libya in last Mondays third presidential debate, the mainstream media wrote it off as over-caution on the Republican challengers part.
That might be true. Certainly a lot of Republicans think so.
But what is the mainstream medias excuse for cautiously engaging the president on Libya? Arent we supposed to be watchdogs? The ongoing story is story focused on whether the Obama administration provided, or refused to provide, adequate protection for the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya when it faced the threat of attack on Sept. 11. The attack left the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans dead. Subsequent conflicting accounts coming from the administration on how the White House responded, or didnt respond, are tailor-made for a full-blown media feeding frenzy.
Yet, the so-called media watchdogs so far have been mostly toothless.
Case in point: On Friday, FoxNews.com reported that it learned from sources who were on the ground in Benghazi that an urgent request from the CIA annex for military back-up during the attack on the U.S. consulate and subsequent attack several hours later on the annex itself was denied by the CIA chain of command... -- who also told the CIA operators twice to "stand down" rather than help the ambassador's team when shots were heard at approximately 9:40 p.m. in Benghazi on Sept. 11.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
Toothless hell, they've stapled their own lips shut.
Do we know who gave the orders to stand down yet? Has Bohner demanded answers yet from Hilary or Obozo?
The media has deliberately chosen to suppress the facts about how the president refused to send military aid for Americans so as not to annoy his co-religionists.
The media has full knowledge of the facts. They have intentionally hidden the truth; they have chosen to protect the man they helped elect in 2008.
I wonder if it's not time for folks to make signs, gather and protest in front of the WH. It looks like the POTUS chose not to defend and send help to US military personnel under fire, and chose to aid the Muslims. That is what it looks like based on what I have read. I could come to D.C. for one or two days but - I have Sick dad witha broken back about to be released from the hospital tomorrow. Need to rise up and force the issue.
Speaking of toothless. Hell, even senator pansy-graham has shown more testicular fortitude in the matter.
It's like Woodward and Bernstein actively helping Nixon cover up Watergate.
Just say'n.
Mainstream media watchdogs—No.
Obama lapdogs—Yes.
The supposed media watch"dogs" only show their fangs during a Republican administration. Otherwise, they are curled up nice and snuggly waiting for their "master" to give them a command.
They're not "toothless", they're accomplices.
If "FOX" knew...they ALL knew. And that's all one needs to know. His Marxist base will choose to ignore it. Hopefully the rest of America will not.
You know, it's a cold, cruel world out there. Life and death struggles. Sadness and misery and pain. The media has looked at God, but they can't understand how God could let this pain and misery go on. In step the Democrats. They're like pimps to lonely teenage girls. They tell the media, "Oh....you're right. There is a lot of bad stuff in the world. We Democrats want to change that. Those evil Republicans don't care about you, but we do. Now you just take off your clothes and go with my friend here while I go buy a new car with the money he gave me. I'll use the new car to deliver groceries to poor people. Honest I will. Would I lie? I love you, baby."
Good thought, Doghead. Someone already wrote in and said there should be a giant protest at the White House with everyone holding a sign reading STAND DOWN! There was a song in the 50's called the Great Pretender. We should all be singing that song, too, with a few adjustments in the prose.
Check the keyword for Benghazi....absolute torrents of articles and statements.
Saw an abbreviated Brett Baer Special Report on the Benghazi coverup ,...attack this morning.
Expect more to be shown tonight and Sunday ...believe at 10 pm EST.

To maintain corporate control over the transition and manage risks from IFRS changes, Oracle helps finance executives and business managers strengthen internal controls over financial reporting, automate steps to audit IFRS compliance, and control variations to ERP applications and underlying systems. The impact of IFRS to the overall business is therefore actively managed and effectively minimized.
Document policy and controls changes during transition from national GAAP to IFRS
Streamline audits and defend your interpretation of IFRS principles
Build stronger internal controls to monitor system changes

Gwendolyn Brooks
(Redirected from Gwen Brooks)
Gwendolyn Brooks (7 June 1917 – 3 December 2000) was an American poet. She received the Pulitzer Prize for Literature for her book of poems Annie Allen.
- It is brave to be involved
To be not fearful to be unresolved.
- "do not be afraid of no" from Annie Allen (1949)
- Exhaust the little moment.
Soon it dies.
And be it gash or gold it will not come
Again in this identical guise.
- "exhaust the little moment" from Annie Allen (1949)
- We real cool. We
Left school. We
Lurk late. We
Strike straight. We
Sing sin. We
Thin gin. We
Jazz June. We
Die soon.
- "We ReaI CooI" , The Bean Eaters (1960)
- The "We"—you're supposed to stop after the "We" and think about their validity, and of course there's no way for you to tell whether it should be said softly or not, I suppose, but I say it rather softly because I want to represent their basic uncertainty, which they don't bother to question every day, of course.
- "An Interview with Gwendolyn Brooks", Contemporary Literature 11:1 (Winter 1970)
- The WEs in "We Real Cool" are tiny, wispy, weakly argumentative "Kilroy-is-here" announcements. The boys have no accented sense of themselves, yet they are aware of a semi-defined personal importance. Say the "We" softly.
- Report from Part One (1972)
- Art hurts. Art urges voyages—
and it is easier to stay at home.
- "The Chicago Picasso" (1968)
- When I start writing a poem, I don't think about models or about what anybody else in the world has done.
- "An Interview with Gwendolyn Brooks", Contemporary Literature 11:1 (Winter 1970)
- A writer should get as much education as possible, but just going to school is not enough; if it were, all owners of doctorates would be inspired writers.
- Report From Part One (1972)
- As you get older, you find that often the wheat, disentangling itself from the chaff, comes out to meet you.
- Report From Part One (1972)
- Art is a refining and evocative translation of the materials of the world.
- Black Poetry Writing (1975)
- Be careful what you swallow. Chew!
- Advice to graduates, Buena Vista University Graduation (1995)
- I am a writer perhaps because I am not a talker.
- My Soul Looks Back, 'Less I Forget (1995) by Dorothy Winbush Riley
- I am interested in telling my particular truth as I have seen it.
- Quoted in her obituary in The Guardian (7 December 2000)
- To be in love
Is to touch with a lighter hand.
In yourself you stretch, you are well.
- "To Be In Love"
- He is not there but
You know you are tasting together
The winter, or a light spring weather.
His hand to take your hand is
Too much too bear.
- "To Be In Love"
- I shall not sing a May song.
A May song should be gay.
I'll wait until November
And sing a song of gray.
- "The Crazy Woman"
- And all the little people
Will stare at me and say,
"That is the Crazy Woman
Who would not sing in May."
- "The Crazy Woman"
- I hold my honey and I store my bread
In little jars and cabinets of my will.
I label clearly, and each latch and lid
I bid, Be firm till I return from hell.
- "my dreams, my works, must wait till after hell"
- Already you're on Page 8.
- "Thinking of Elizabeth Steinberg"
- consider the big fists breaking your little bones,
or consider the vague bureaucrats
stumbling, fumbling through Paper.
- "Thinking of Elizabeth Steinberg"
- Is earnest enough, may earnest attract or lead to light;
Is light enough, if hands in clumsy frenzy, flimsy whimsically, enlist;
Is light enough when this bewilderment crying against the dark shuts down the shades?
Dilute confusion. Find and explode our mist.
- "garbageman: the man with the orderly mind"
- Say to them,
say to the down-keepers,
the sun-slappers,
the self-soilers,
the harmony-hushers,
"even if you are not ready for day
it cannot always be night."
You will be right.
- Speech to the Young : Speech to the Progress-Toward
- Truth-tellers are not always palatable. There is a preference for candy bars.
- "Song for Winnie"
The Ballad of Rudolph Reed[edit]
- Rudolph Reed was oaken.
His wife was oaken too.
And his two good girls and his good little man
Oakened as they grew.
- Nary a grin grinned Rudolph Reed,
Nary a curse cursed he,
But moved in his House. With his dark little wife,
And his dark little children three.
- The first night, a rock, big as two fists.
The second, a rock big as three.
But nary a curse cursed Rudolph Reed.
(Though oaken as man could be.)
The third night, a silvery ring of glass.
Patience arched to endure,
But he looked, and lo! small Mabel's blood
Was staining her gaze so pure.
- He ran like a mad thing into the night
And the words in his mouth were stinking.
By the time he had hurt his first white man
He was no longer thinking.
By the time he had hurt his fourth white man
Rudolph Reed was dead.
His neighbors gathered and kicked his corpse.
"Nigger—" his neighbors said.
- Small Mabel whimpered all night long,
For calling herself the cause.
Her oak-eyed mother did no thing
But change the bloody gauze.
The Good Man[edit]
- The good man.
He is still enhancer, renouncer.
In the time of detachment,
in the time of the vivid heather and affectionate evil,
in the time of oral
grave grave legalities of hate - all real
walks our prime registered reproach and seal.
Our successful moral.
The good man.
- Coherent
Counsel! Good man.
Require of us our terribly excluded blue.
Constrain, repair a ripped, revolted land.
Put hand in hand land over.
the abler droughts and manias of the day
and a felicity entreat.
your pledges, reinforce your aides, renew
stance, testament.
A Sunset of the City[edit]
- Already I am no longer looked at with lechery or love.
My daughters and sons have put me away with marbles and dolls,
Are gone from the house.
My husband and lovers are pleasant or somewhat polite
And night is night.
- It is a real chill out,
The genuine thing.
I am not deceived, I do not think it is still summer
Because sun stays and birds continue to sing.
- It is a real chill out. The fall crisp comes
I am aware there is winter to heed.
There is no warm house
That is fitted with my need.
- Come: there shall be such islanding from grief,
And small communion with the master shore.
Twang they. And I incline this ear to tin,
Consult a dual dilemma. Whether to dry
In humming pallor or to leap and die.
- Somebody muffed it?? Somebody wanted to joke.
The Mother[edit]
- Abortions will not let you forget.
You remember the children you got that you did not get,
The damp small pulps with a little or with no hair,
The singers and workers that never handled the air.
You will never neglect or beat
Them, or silence or buy with a sweet.
You will never wind up the sucking-thumb
Or scuttle off ghosts that come.
- I have heard in the voices of the wind the voices of my dim killed children.
I have contracted. I have eased
My dim dears at the breasts they could never suck.
I have said, Sweets, if I sinned, if I seized
Your luck
And your lives from your unfinished reach,
If I stole your births and your names,
Your straight baby tears and your games,
Your stilted or lovely loves, your tumults, your marriages, aches,
and your deaths,
If I poisoned the beginnings of your breaths,
Believe that even in my deliberateness I was not deliberate.
- What shall I say, how is the truth to be said?
You were born, you had body, you died.
It is just that you never giggled or planned or cried.
- Believe me, I loved you all.
Believe me, I knew you, though faintly, and I loved, I loved you
Paul Robeson[edit]
- From Family Pictures (1971)
- That time
we all heard it,
cool and clear,
cutting across the hot grit of the day.
The major Voice.
The adult Voice
forgoing Rolling River,
forgoing tearful tale of bale and barge
and other symptoms of an old despond.
Warning, in music-words
devout and large,
that we are each other's
we are each other's
we are each other's
magnitude and bond.
"Corners on the Curving Sky"[edit]
- Our earth is round, and, among other things
That means that you and I can hold completely different
Points of view and both be right.
The difference of our positions will show
Stars in your window I cannot even imagine.
Your sky may burn with light,
While mine, at the same moment,
Spreads beautiful to darkness.
- The above statements have been widely published in the above format as lines of verse attributed to Brooks, usually as a poem titled "Corners on the Curving Sky" — but one website indicated that she declared she did not write them. The words actually occur as an introduction to the "Corners on the Curving Sky" section of the book Soulscript (1970) compiled by June Jordan, in which other poems of Brooks were included, and thus is apparently the work of Jordan. It appears simply in paragraph form and reads thus:
- Our earth is round, and, among other things, that means that you and I can hold completely different points of view and both be right. The difference of our positions will show stars in your window I cannot even imagine. Your sky may burn with light, while mine, at the same moment, spreads beautiful to darkness. Still we must choose how we separately corner the circling universe of our experience. Once chosen, our cornering will determine the message of any star and darkness we encounter. These poems speak to philosophy; they reveal the corners where we organize what we know.

How to change front wheel stud on 97 Outback?
Posted 27 December 2006 - 09:07 PM
What do I have to remove in order to replace the stud? (other than remove the wheel)
Posted 27 December 2006 - 09:34 PM
Anyway, to get it out, just bash on it.
To get the new one in, just put the new stud in, and stack up a fair bit of washers, and torque on the the lug nut with an impact gun. What? no gun? I work at Marysville ford and could impact it on if you bring in just the hub and the new stud, Ask for Noah. If its just the stud and hub i can run it in free, if you bring the whole car i'd have to go through official channels which means money from you.
You should be able to use a good half inch breaker bar but you'll have to keep the hub from spinning, so tape up the other studs real good to protect the threads and jam a pry bar in there to keep it from spinning, if you don't protect the threads you'll be replacing 2 more studs.
Posted 28 December 2006 - 12:26 AM
if it's like on the older ones - you just pound the old stud out. spin the hub just right and there's just enough room to get it out without removing anything but the wheel. beat the old one out. slide the new one in from the back side too. hold it in place while you thread a nut on the end that's sticking out. use the tigthening of the nut to fully seat the new stud. it needs to be pressed in, but using a nut will "pull" it through and fully seat it. after that, remove the nut and you're done.
for what it's worth i drove on 2 front studs (out of 5) before...and 3...and 4...all for hundreds of miles. no i don't recommend it, but missing one wouldn't scare me a bit. i actually had 4 out of five shear off on me one time on a highway road trip, all 4 on one wheel. i found out that a brake caliper mounting bolt is the same thread pitch has a lug nut. i remove one and installed it in my hub to hold the wheel on, tightened the remaining one real good to finish the road trip since it was 1 in the morning and got new ones the next day from subaru. fun stuff.

Procedure below:
1)Loosen wheel nuts.
2)Jack and place car on jack stands or wooden blocks.
3)Remove wheel nuts and wheel.
4)Remove brake caliper (14mm bolts), tie caliper up to strut tower with coat hanger or similar to keep it out of the way.
5)Remove brake caliper holder (tight 17mm bolts!) Remember orientation for proper assembly with brake pads.
6)Remove disk rotor
7)Remove ABS tone ring bolts (5mm Allen head bolts, allen socket would be best & spray penetrating oil first). You can now move the tone ring around to provide clearance to remove the bad stud.
8)Press stud out (I used the Ball Joint Remover from the "Front End Service Kit" loaner tool from Canadian Tire)
see http://www.ultimates...ead.php?t=69394 for loaner tool info
9)Wiggle stud and tone ring around to remove. On the right side of the car there is a notch in the hub at around 11 o'clock position. This gave me a bit extra room. On the left side the notch is around the 1 o'clock position.
Installation is the reverse. While everything is apart check your brake pads and clean the tone ring with a wire brush and the ABS sensor with rag/scotchbrite pad.

I am trying to replace the front passenger side wheel bearing. My car is a 90 legacy with the ABS. I can't figure out how to separate the the guard plate and ABS ring without ussing a puller to pull out the front section of the housing that contains the splines that match the drive shaft. I have someone who will press the old bearing out and press the new one in. I have the seals and grease. The guy who will help said he could not help with the ABS ring in place and am finding no help yet.
Any help would be a start ... Thanks...I have the faith in USMB.

I just removed the stud. Not too difficult a job.

the hub is pressed into the bearings and the bearings are pressed into the housing, all together they make up the knuckle. so you will need to "pull" the hub out before the bearing can be replaced.
i'm surprised he could not press it out for you.

BEIJING (Reuters) - China Electronics Corp has delayed a planned cooperation with Japan's Sharp Corp on production of the world's most advanced LCD panels due to a territorial dispute between the two countries, the chairman of the state-owned firm said on Friday.
The cooperation on the production of the 10th generation LCD panels has already obtained approval from China's top economic planning agency but "has been delayed due to the widely known reason, including the purchase of the islands by the Japanese government," chairman Rui Xiaowu told reporters on the sidelines of the Communist Party Congress in Beijing.
Officials at Sharp declined to comment.
Sharp's former President Mikio Katayama in June last year said that cooperation with China Electronics Corp had stalled because Chinese authorities were only prepared to approve a 10th generation plant rather than the 8th generation facility earlier agreed. Sharp has so far been unwilling to export its most advanced LCD technology.
Japanese car makers have reported a slide in sales in China since mid-September, when Japan's move to nationalize two disputed islands in the East China Sea, known as the Diaoyu in Chinese and the Senkaku in Japanese, triggered violent protests and calls for boycotts of Japanese products across China.
China Electronics and Sharp, the struggling Japanese electronics maker, entered into a partnership in 2009 to jointly produce Sharp's sixth- and eight-generation TFT-LCD panels.
In April, TPV Technology Ltd, a unit of China Electronics, said it would form a joint venture to build China's first 10th generation TFT-LCD factory. It did not disclose where it would acquire the necessary technology for 10th generation LCD panels, which is solely owned by Sharp.

Fisher Cats win
Fisher Cats get win on memorable playBy IAN CLARK
New Hampshire Union Leader
July 22. 2013 10:47PM
MANCHESTER — The New Hampshire Fisher Cats scored the winning run in unusual fashion Monday night, edging Harrisburg 4-3 in front of 4,139 fans at Northeast Delta Dental Stadium.
Fisher Cats first baseman Gabe Jacobo came up with an unlikely winning hit in the bottom of the eighth inning. With two outs and the game tied, 3-3, Jacobo dropped a single into center field that Brian Goodwin missed on the hop. The ball went all the way to the warning track and Jacobo raced around to third base and then scored when shortstop Jason Martinson's relay throw to third bounced away.
Fisher Cats reliever Scott Gracey came in to work the top of the ninth, sending the Senators down one-two-three to notch his first save of the year.
The win improved the Fisher Cats to 52-48. Relief pitcher Randy Boone worked three scoreless innings to get the win and move his record to 3-0. The Senators (55-48) and Fisher Cats play again tonight at 7:05.
Brad Glenn led off the bottom of the eighth with a home run to deep left field to tie the game at 3-3. It was Glenn's 15th of the season and came off reliever Tyler Herron.
Harrisburg scored three runs in the top of the third to open the scoring. Destin Hood led off with a double to center field and former Fisher Cats catcher Brian Jeroloman drew a walk, as did Goodwin to load the bases with no outs.
New Hampshire starter Ryan Tepera got Steven Souza Jr. to line out to second base, but Jimmy VanOstrand snaked a double inside the third base line to plate Hood and Jeroloman. Justin Bloxom grounded out in front of the plate, but Goodwin came in to score to make it 3-0.
Fisher Cats center fielder Adam Loewen hit a towering home run to right field side in the bottom of the third to cut the lead to 3-1. Three consecutive singles from Brian Van Kirk, Jon Talley and Loewen (who drove in Van Kirk) made it a 3-2 game after five frames.

The Bellmore Jewish Center will welcome its new spiritual leader to the community this summer, as Rabbi Dahlia Bernstein is preparing to start her tenure as rabbi of the synagogue.
The center, located at 2550 Centre Ave., is a full egalitarian conservative synagogue that officials said emphasizes family services and programs. President Ian Wald said congregants would have the chance to meet Bernstein at their "Shabbat Under the Stars" open house at 6 p.m. on July 12 before she officially starts on Aug. 1.
"The Bellmore Jewish Center is excited and pleased to welcome Rabbi Dahlia Bernstein to our synagogue community," he said. "She brings with her a new spirit and a dynamic energy unseen before on Long Island."
Bernstein said she completed rabbinic ordination at the Jewish Theological Seminary, where she also pursued a master's degree in Jewish education, in May. She previously graduated from the joint program between the seminary and Columbia University, earning two bachelor's degrees in Talmud/rabbinics and anthropology. During rabbinical school, Bernstein earned the Schusterman Fellowship. Officials said this allowed her to participate in interdenominational dialogue with her reform colleagues on pressing topics in the Jewish community, including social media in the synagogue, intermarriage and creating meaningful and spiritually engaging prayer services.
Officials at the center noted that Bernstein has a passion for pastoral care, which they said she honed while working with the Metropolitan Jewish Hospice in 2010. They said she also developed these skills in her work as a rabbinic and education intern for the Orangetown Jewish Center in Orangeburg, New York. In addition to these experienced, Bernstein served as the rabbi of Congregation Emanuel in Statesville, North Carolina through the Legacy Heritage Rabbinic Fellowship.
Ritual Vice President Joseph Weisbord said the board of directors of the Bellmore Jewish Center is delighted to have a rabbi with a wealth of knowledge, experience, educational training and expertise in all aspects of Jewish life.

Larsen bowls highest series in HR history
Everyone hates it when people say this, but "we told you so!" Last week, when Gail Larsen just missed an 800 series by five pins, we said he would shoot 800 one of these days. But we didn't think he would do it the following week.
And he did it in a BIG way by blasting a huge 862 series in the Fraternal League last Wednesday. He now holds the record for the highest three-game series ever shot in Hood River!
To put this remarkable accomplishment into perspective, 862 is an average of 287 per game. It was only a couple years ago that the highest three-game series ever shot in the state of Oregon was 876. Last year, someone finally shot a perfect 900 series, in which the bowler tossed 36 strikes in a row. Incredible.
Wednesday onlookers report that Gail could have actually scored higher because every one of his 36 shots was perfect.
If you think that this is all the hot news, you'd better be sitting down, because Gail also shot another 300 game this week after shooting his first one of the season last week. Now, we've seen many bowlers shoot two 300 games in a year, but not too many do it two weeks in a row. And remember, these scores were shot in competition sanctioned by the American Bowling Congress, so they are real. This is quite a story.
In all our 40-plus years of bowling, we've never seen anything quite like this. We like to think it has something to do with the custom-drilled ball Gail purchased from Orchard Lanes three weeks ago. Since he picked up the ball, he's averaging about 275. Needless to say, he really knows how to use it. He will receive two more lifetime achievement awards from the ABC for his incredible performance.
Pogue to compete at Mt. Bachelor
Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort in Bend will host the Chevy Truck U.S. Snowboard Grand Prix from Jan. 4-6, 2002. The event features both giant slalom and half-pipe competitions, as well as the Yahoo Sports Big Air and Style Competition. Anton Pogue of Hood River, and Lynn Ott of Bend, are both scheduled to compete in the event, and are aiming to qualify for the 2002 Olympic team. Competing against Pogue and Ott will be some of the world's best snowboarders from Canada, Germany, Finland and Norway. All events are free and open to the public. For more information about Mt. Bachelor or the Grand Prix event, call (800) 829-2442 or visit www.mtbachelor.com.
Hood River Middle School eighth-grader Brisa Jessup traveled to Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 8 for the USA Track and Field Cross-Country Nationals, and placed 140th out of more than 200 13- and 14-year-old competitors.
Jessup was one of nine participants from Oregon and the only runner from Hood River to qualify for the 4K event after her 15th place finish at the regional competition Nov. 17 at Sandy High School.
"Overall, it was a great experience," she said. "But I didn't run my best because there was so much pressure and it was really hard to pass people."
Jessup explained that her time of 17 minutes, 10 seconds was about 30 seconds slower than her time at regionals, but that she would be ready to compete at the next level next season when she joins the team at Hood River Valley High School.
"I really want to make varsity my first year," she said. "My times compare to some of the other varsity runners and I've already been training with one girl (Caitlin Becker) to get ready."
She will have her work cut out for her, as six of the top seven varsity runners — including state champion Christy Paul — will return to the course.
HRV also boasts a strong JV squad that should make the 2002 team one of the school's best ever.
Other HRMS eighth-graders that will compete with Jessup next year for a spot on the team will be Jenna Fisher, Janne Lucas, Stephanie Judd and Jennifer Jefferies.

Kitt joins team at Meadows
Mt. Hood Meadows announced Wednesday that four-time U.S. Olympic skier AJ Kitt has joined the team as its new Resort Embassador.
Kitt, whose best Olympic finish was ninth at the 1992 Olympics in Albertville, France, is the only male skier to represent the U.S. in four Olympic Games.
He also competed in downhill and Super G in 1988, 1994 and 1998, and won the bronze medal in the 1993 World Championships in Morioka, Japan.
Kitt currently resides in Hood River and has been training at Meadows for more than a decade. He is excited to take on this new public relations position in his own backyard.
"I am impressed with Meadows and look forward to joining the team," he said. "The resort is well-run and I believe it will continue to improve.
"It's a great venue for me to get more people excited about winter sports and outdoor recreation in general."
Meadows general manager Dave Riley is equally enthusiastic, and believes Kitt's background in skiing and personal relations will greatly benefit the resort.
"AJ is very committed to growing the sport and sharing his experiences with those seeking recreational enjoyment," he said.
"He has a unique perspective and I believe he will help Meadows become a better resort for all our guests."
Kitt won the U.S. National Downhill competition in 1992 and 1995, and the U.S. National Super G in 1991 and 1992. He also competed on the World Cup Tour from 1988-98, notching four first-place finishes.

I was catching up on all the news forum posts today and I was thinking... how glad am I that I, as a Reds fan, or baseball fan in general, don't live in Kansas City.
I took a look at their forum page and it is almost baron. I was somewhat stunned as to why there wasn't at least a little bit of talking going on about minor off season moves or if they can hit .500 this year.
The Royals haven't been viable since before I was born (which was 1987) and haven't had over 2 mil in attendance since the early 90's I believe.
How does a team like that stay around that long? It's not like they have been around for more than 50 years, so there is not much history to be ingrained into the ether of Kansas City, and they haven't had a true bonafide superstar that could draw in a crowd since George Brett.
It just made me think of how happy I am to be a Redlegs fan, and I'm thankful that we have fans out there who are happily ready and willing to talk in depth about our team.
We have a great shot to go all the way this year and more than likely years to come. And the Royals will more than likely be right back at or near the bottom.
Comments are more than welcome.
Thanks fellas and Go Redlegs

Over the weekend of January 12-14, the 63rd annual Dorian Vocal Festival took place at Luther College in Decorah. Five lucky G-R vocalists were there to witness this breathtaking choral experience. This festival brings together one of the biggest choirs in the Midwest. There were over 240 schools represented, amounting to just over 1200 students. The representatives from Gladbrook-Reinbeck included: Courtney Crozier, Breanna Schlichtman, Aaron Shouse, Sadie Walton and Shelby Yates.
The festival started for these kids at 10:00 Sunday morning when they loaded themselves into a school van and took the trip up to Luther. Upon arrival to the campus, the vocalists were soon in their seats and ready to begin their first practice as a full choir. The director of the festival, Dr. Allen Hightower, had the magic touch for keeping the kids focused and attentive, even during such a long practice. They sang until dinner time, when the majority of the 1200 kids got in line to eat in the Luthor cafeteria. After dinner the students were treated to concert showcasing two first-year choirs from Luther College, followed by a dance.
After a night of sleeping on the floor of the Luthor dorms, students awoke bright and early for a day of singing. The choir only stopped their singing for meals to ensure that they would be ready for the concert later that night. Since the choir itself is so vast, this concert is put on in a very unique way. The choir fills all of the seats on the main floor, and many folding chairs. This leaves only the balcony for choir directors and parents, and since tickets are in such high demand, they must be raffled off. We were lucky enough to have two G-R parents in the audience to hear the wonderful spectacle of the 1200 voice choir. If you ask anyone who has been, the will tell you that Dorian Vocal Festival is an amazing experience, and that they were lucky to be a part of it.

Have you ever wondered at what age did you start dreaming? We all know that children dream up new worlds and even friends with their vivid imaginations but have you ever looked in on your child sleeping so peacefully and thought to yourself, "I wonder what they're thinking about?" While science isn't quite at that level yet, it's pretty close. They've actually been able to tell us the exact week in a child's life they begin to dream. Studies show that babies in the womb and infants dream far more than adults. So if you're a mom sleeping and dreaming comfortably on your latex foam bed, chances are your infant is probably dreaming as well.

Now to prep football and one of the openers pitting area teams head to head this Friday night, Bay at Port St. Joe. Let's begin with the Tornadoes, coming off a 14-12 loss to Vernon in their Kickoff Classic last Friday, leaving coach Sorrells with plenty to work on.
Frank Sorrells
Bay Head Coach
"...Well the kickoff classic was certainly a good learning situation. We certainly made some mistakes. We had a miscue on a punt return, we had a snap over the head, hurt us. Two big mistakes that led to two, both their touchdowns. And those are the things that we can't do. We get to the goal line and we can't get it in the endzone. All those are experiences we got to build on and correct and hopefully we can do better the next time out."
As for the Sharks, they're coming off two halves of play in their jamboree last Thursday. St. Joe losing to Bozeman and Arnold in those two halves by a combined 48-6, leaving coach Barth reasonably concerned.
Vern Barth
Port St. Joe Head Coach
"Ah well we took some lumps. We are going through the growing pains right now. We're slowly gonna work on just improving in each area, best we can each week. Hopefully after four or five games these guys won't be rookies any more. They'll be able to hopefully be a little bit more competitive."
Barth says he knows Bay has a bit of a numbers and size advantage, but given it's just the opener, and not a district game, he simply wants to see improvement. That game Friday in Port St. Joe set for a 7:30 eastern start.

Because Elvis loves you (and you'd like to prove it to the world)
If you've been hunting for the top of the line, Rolls Royce of disposable cameras, this probably isn't it. On the other hand, if you've been hunting for the one disposable camera on the market that takes extraordinarily fake pictures of you standing next to Rock n' Roll icon Elvis Presley, then we've somehow found exactly what you're looking for!
Of course, just showing people your really
fake pic with Elvis might not convince them you've met the King. That's why we're giving you some real facts to help bolster your real fake claim.
ELVIS LOVED HIS MOM: If you'd met him, you'd know Elvis "the Pelvis" was a total momma's boy. In fact, up until Elvis was in high school, his mom walked him to school every day, and made him carry his own silverware so that he wouldn't fall sick from the other kids' germs. The mother and son also chatted in their own bizarre baby talk that only they could understand.
ELVIS WAS DOWN WITH JUDIASM: Elvis wore a cross, a Star of David, and the Hebrew letter chi, because in his own words, he didn't "want to miss out on heaven due to a technicality."
ELVIS HAD A LOT OF GREY: If you looked close, you'd notice Elvis had white roots. The fact is, the King treated his hair with such harsh dyes and styling products that, by the time he was forty, all his hair was white.

The shock has worn off. The awe has subsided. A week has passed, and I have finally returned to normal after last Saturday's epic visit to Safeco Field.
But because that night was so unforgettable and so unbelievably fantastic — like something out of a movie for me — I felt it deserved another look.
I merely skimmed the surface of my Safeco experience in Wednesday's article, touching on only a few of the elements that made Saturday's game with the Red Sox "the night of all time."
My experience went so far beyond sitting next to the Mariner dugout and walking onto the field during the game. In fact, some of my best memories of the evening don't even involve either of the two teams on the field.
Last Saturday was special for me on multiple levels. Not just as a member of the media, but also as a friend. I was able to show my buddy Alejandro — who arrived last week from Venezuela — what the American baseball culture is all about.
You should have seen his eyes light up when we passed through the turnstiles and walked around the main concourse. (Come to think of it, I've even seen my fair share of Seattleites react the same way during their first visit to Safeco).
"Is that real grass?" he asked. "$6 for a beer? 46,000 people, you said? Ná guará!"
As a matter of fact, "ná guará" may be the best word to sum up the experience for both of us. It's a word that few Spanish speakers outside Venezuela have even heard of. But when something is so cool that it requires extra emphasis — like saying "duuuuuuude!" — that's the only word you can use.
So how do you think Alejandro reacted when I told him I had talked to Freddy Garcia and Carlos Guillen in Español?
"Ná guevonaaaaá!" (An even more emphatic version of ná guará that's not as appropriate at the dinner table.)
However, had Alejandro not been with me at the game, I may not have summoned up the courage to talk to these two Venezuelan nationals. But because I wanted to make his first trip to Safeco even more unforgettable, I figured I'd try my hand at an autograph or two.
"Hey Freddy, come here," I said to him in Spanish. "I've got a buddy here in the stands who arrived from Venezuela just yesterday. Is there any way you could sign this piece of paper?"
"Well, I'm kind of in the middle of a game," Freddy responded. "What was his name again?"
Not wanting to overstep my media boundaries, I said, "Well, maybe I'll catch up to you in the tunnel after the game."
He said, "Sure, that'll work out better."
Having already surpassed my expectations for the night, I didn't make it back down to the media tunnel. Mostly, I couldn't wait to tell my Seattle friends about what had just happened.
The one person who was even more awestruck than Alejandro or me was my buddy Gabe, the definition of a baseball junkie. He lives and dies by the Mariners and would give his pinky toe to be where I was on Saturday.
But ol' Gabe may have to wait a while for his chance to meet the Mariner guard. Alejandro has priority while he's visiting the United States.
"Will we go back this summer?" he asked me.
"Sure," I told him, "but next time, I'll let you ask for your own autographs."

Tuesday, October 23, 2007
(10-23) 23:54 PDT Seattle (AP)
Brandan Wright had been buried far down Golden State's bench. His late-game efforts Tuesday night have coach Don Nelson reconsidering the rookie's role on the team.
Wright, who didn't enter the game until midway through the fourth quarter, scored seven points, including a clutch follow basket with 47 seconds left in overtime to help the Warriors to a 126-122 victory over the Seattle SuperSonics.
"The whole game was good, bad and ugly. My best player on the court was Brandan Wright. He was just terrific and I wasn't even going to play him," Nelson said. "He's got something special because he's so long and quick. He got to balls no one else on the team could have gotten."
Seattle rookie Kevin Durant, the No. 2 pick in the draft, left the game with 2:10 remaining in regulation with a sprained left ankle. He left the arena using crutches and was wearing a soft boot, and won't play in either of the Sonics' remaining preseason games.
Nelson didn't want to play the rookie from North Carolina because "he hasn't had an outstanding practice or an outstanding game, he's just learning, he's light, he's young, just turned 20. But I finally said, 'Let's stick him in there and see how he does.' He definitely got my attention. I have to do a double-take on him now."
With the Warriors (4-2) leading just 121-120 and inside of a minute left in overtime, Wright positioned himself underneath. On a missed shot by Monta Ellis shot, Wright sliced inside, grabbed the rebound and put it in for a three-point lead.
Wally Szczerbiak hit a jumper with 21 seconds left to draw the Sonics within two points, but Ellis, Matt Barnes and Marco Belinelli each made a free throw to keep the Sonics at bay.
"I'm always ready to play. When Coach calls me you have to go out there and do the best you can," Wright said. "When a shot goes up, you have to go to the boards. It's instincts and being able to use your athletic ability and quickness to get to the glass."
Szczerbiak had a chance to give the Sonics (1-5) the lead with 25 seconds left in regulation. He had tied the game at 113 with a fast-break layup and was fouled, but missed the free throw. The Warriors couldn't get off a final shot in regulation.
Damien Wilkins shot 10-of-21 and scored a preseason-best 27 points for the Sonics. Szczerbiak came off the bench to score 24, Chris Wilcox had 22 and Durant had 21.
Golden State had a balanced offense with eight players in double figures, led by Barnes with 16. Baron Davis had 14 but he was held out of the entire second half by Nelson.
The Sonics, 29th in team defense after allowing 106.8 points per game, had given up 126, 117 and 126 points in their last three games, all losses.
The Warriors built an 11-point lead in the first quarter as Mickael Pietrus contributed seven points. But he hit the bench with 3:43 left with three fouls and didn't return until the fourth quarter.
Pietrus' exit began the Seattle response, led by Szczerbiak. He scored 14 of his 16 first-half points in the second period. His 3-pointer with 9:35 left in the half gave the Sonics their first lead, 35-33.
The Sonics closed the half with a 12-0 spurt in a span of 1:24 for a 68-61 lead at intermission.
The Sonics led by as many as nine points in the fourth quarter but allowed the Warriors back into it.
"We're young in terms of us being together and being able to execute," Sonics first-year coach P.J. Carlesimo said. "It was the careless passes and busted rotations that hurt us the most."
With one preseason game remaining, Nelson was asked to compare his team to last season's playoff team. He said he's still not sure.
"That's (Seattle) not a good team and they almost beat us tonight," Nelson said. "So I don't know where that puts us. They're kind of a fun team but they're so young. They're going to suffer until those guys learn how to play. P.J. has a tough job. I really don't know what to expect from us."
Carlesimo held out center Robert Swift and guard Delonte West to rest them.
Seattle plays two more preseason games, Wednesday at Portland and Friday against Phoenix in Vancouver, British Columbia. Golden State finishes its preseason Friday at the Los Angeles Clippers.
Wright helps Warriors escape with 126-122 overtime victory!!

Moderators: Mr. Crackerz, JREED, Guybrush, 32
Wright knows his game. I love hearing him talk about using his quickness to get boards, rather than power. Shawn Marion uses that technique and it appears to work rather well...
Also good to hear Nelson revaluating Wright's role. 15 MPG as a backup would be better than 30 MPG in D-League. I just don't want him to rot in a 10 MPG or less role...

This picture, taken in December, 1955, shows our angelic younger sisters at their very best - demure poses and all. This was my last Christmas at home, and it was a special one. You can see the tinsel on the tree that was carefully saved from year to year, to say nothing of the decorations and lights. No matter what our age, Christmas was and is magical. Occasionally I still look for the chocolate creams and the ribbon candy that we used to get in our stockings.

Those nighties took a lot of yards of flannel, but you could curl up inside them and keep warm!

And they even had lace on them. It was like curling up inside a soft, warm blanket. And the flannel had a particular smell to it (or is that odor?) that made it feel as though they were truly Santa Claus nighties. Were those the nighties with the little lavender flowers on them?

I'd give her a big, sympathetic sigh and say "Hon, I've been giving you the same advice for years. I don't know what else to say except I love you and I want you to be happy!"I had a friend like that. I'd known her about a year and from day one she'd been talking about leaving her husband but there was always some reason why she had to wait. I'd listened, advised, sympathized, etc. many times. One day she was moaning about him while her mom happened to be over and, to be honest, I thought her mom was being pretty unsympathetic. Finally when my friend left the room her mom said "She's been saying the same things for YEARS. All we can do is listen and try not to get involved!" Big lightbulb moment for me, and a lesson that came in handy with another friend years later.
"You've asked me this question in regard to seven different guys. My answer has never changed. I'll give it again, if you'd like, but honestly I'd prefer not to repeat myself again."
Well having been that person for many years I would say, stop being so lax in your advice. I don't know you in real life but I bet you get all soft and warm and friendly and advice her with this comforting soft voice, because you seem like a good sweet person on here and thats what good sweet friends do. Let me tell you, it just sounds like comforting murmurs. And its not really pushing someone to change, but its just nursing their wounds.Have you ever heard of a winning teacher or coach inspiring positive growth with a soft, "there-there, perhaps if you tried..." approach? Nope. Change gets rallied in. Get harsh, get serious, get [metaphorically] loud and in her face about it. Don't feel bad for her and commiserate with her. Tell her its her own darn fault and to man up and own that she caused this situation and if she wants something different she better start doing something differently because its her life and her relationships and the power to change any bit of it lies with her. Don't sugar coat it and don't put up with it. Use strong words, even if they upset her to hear them. If she makes the same dang mistake again tell her "I don't want to hear it" in a tone that says you mean it and change topics. Make her change (ok you can't make her change, but I mean take that kind of stance with her), be the friend that inspires and encourages change, not the one who listens and comforts. Be cause its really hard to change your base relationship patterns. Really hard, and really scary and really lonely. Sometimes people a push instead of a coaxing.

Two boats, each travelling at its own constant speed, start at the same time from Shores A and B, respectively, and power directly across the lake. The boats first pass each other 200 yards from Shore A and next pass each other (after each has reached and immediately left its opposite shore) 20 seconds later, 100 yards from Shore B. Calculate the speed of the faster boat, in feet per second.
Obviously, the distances are 600 feet and 300 feet. But I'm have trouble getting my head around what to do with the crossing paths. Suggestions?

Thai English Teachers' Understanding of "Postmethod Pedagogy": Case Studies of University Lecturers
This qualitative case study aimed to solicit Thai EFL university lecturers' opinions concerning postmethod pedagogy. It was motivated by an interest in how local teachers construe pedagogical innovations such as postmethod pedagogy vis-à-vis their own teaching conditions. More often than not, local teachers encounter many challenges in implementing those innovations in their own teaching. Through semi-structured interviews and unique and snowball sampling, the participants (n=6) were asked a series of questions that delved into their English teaching experiences, especially their understanding of postmethod pedagogy. Results suggested that, although the participants did not spell out exact postmethod strategies, their response patterns pointed to a high level of understanding of the postmethod pedagogy philosophy. Moreover, limitations of the study were provided and the paper was concluded with Hayes' (2008) ecological perspective on language teaching. It is recommended that qualitative research be conducted at a wider scale in order to ascertain whether and to what extent postmethod pedagogy can be successfully implemented in the EFL context.
