Michael O'Neill talked football with the Queen as he was appointed an MBE at Buckingham Palace.
The Northern Ireland manager was recognised for services to football and to the community in Northern Ireland.
O'Neill, who is from Ballymena but lives in Edinburgh, said the Queen remarked on how well Northern Ireland performed at Euro 2016.
He said: "All the people at the palace have made it very easy for us, very welcoming, and did it with a nice sense of humour as well.
"And a few words from the Queen who had said we had done very well in the summer, and I said how it had been such a positive thing for Northern Ireland, and she was aware of that, and she said that was great, and just to keep doing it."
Asked if the Queen seemed to be a football fan, O'Neill said: "A little bit. She knew enough about what we had achieved and what we had done."
The football manager said the honour was "a very personal thing", adding: "It's a lovely day for me, for the family.
"It's something that I didn't expect at all to be honest. It's just something that's very special."
Football fans from across Ireland were honoured for their sportsmanship during Euro 2016 by the mayor of Paris.
Anne Hidalgo offered the city's most prestigious award - the Grand Vermeil - to fans from both Northern Ireland and the Republic.
The Northern Ireland fans won hearts across Europe during the tournament, with their supporters introducing anthem 'Will Grigg's on Fire' to the masses.
O'Neill said his team's fans gave "amazing support", adding: "I think other supporters almost marvelled at how much support we got for such a small country."

Wrigley Field backstage tour, from clubhouse to dugout, before Cubs vs. Rockies
CHICAGO — I have a weak spot for history. I love old jerseys, old gloves, and certainly ancient stadiums. Wrigley Field is unique in so many ways. I made a point to bring my family here a few years ago for the same reason we have gone to Cooperstown: to get a feel for the game's past.
Wrigley Field is a portal into a different era. I did this a few years ago, and folks seemed to enjoy it. So I tried it again. I am an amateur cameraman, but wanted to provide a peek behind the scenes at the quirky beauty that is Wrigley.

Party for the Planet with The Rock Collection (Greg Anton, Mark Karan, Lebo, Robin Sylvester)Purchase tickets online
June 21 8:00 pm
It's a party, and you're invited for this gala night of rockin' music, comedy, and a silent auction in celebration of Earth Island Institute's 30th anniversary. Lending their talents to this benefit show are the Rock Collection, comedian Will Durst, psychedelic rockers Whiskerman, and other special guests.
Presenting "comedy for people who read, or know someone who does," Will makes a point of puncturing the pomposity of sacred cows on both sides of the aisle. A five-time Emmy nominee and a regular commentator for audible.com, Air America, CNN, and NPR, Will is as current as today's headlines, as accurate as a sniper, and in the words of the New York Times, "quite possibly the best political satirist working in the country today."
Oakland-based Whiskerman is a Frankenstein-like fusion of a simple folk backbone, rich classical core, wide-stretching art-rock limbs, and big jazz feet. At the head of this high-energy band, Graham Patzner wildly wields guitar, violin, piano, and a voice that's both powerful and vulnerable. He is backed by Lewis Patzner on cello and trombone, singer and keyboardist Madeline Streicek, bassist Will Lawrence, and drummer Nicholas Cobbett.
John Trudell is an acclaimed poet, national recording artist, actor and activist whose latest double album, Madness & The Moremes, showcases more than five years of new music and including favorite Trudell tunes made with Kiowa guitarist Jesse Ed Davis. Trudell (Santee Sioux) was a spokesperson for the Indian of All Tribes occupation of Alcatraz Island from 1969 to 1971 and worked with the American Indian Movement (AIM), serving as Chairman of AIM from 1973 to 1979.
Founded by David Brower, Earth Island Institute is a hub for grassroots campaigns dedicated to conserving, preserving, and restoring the ecosystems on which our civilization depends. Acting as an incubator for start-up environmental projects, the EII Project Support program gives crucial assistance to groups and individuals with new ideas for promoting ecological sustainability.

Cleankeys Wireless Keyboard – Review
The Cleankeys Wireless keyboard is a really great idea. The idea behind it is your keyboard is a germ factory. In fact, most of their sales efforts are driven at the medical community because you can actually sterilize your cleankeys wireless keyboard (because it is virtually water-proof), and that's something that a lot of keyboards can't offer.
Unfortunately for Cleankeys Wireless Keyboard that is where it stops. When you are designing a keyboard, you always need to keep the primary function in mind first. Yes First. Above and beyond anything else. Cleankeys failed to do so. So while you have a great clean keyboard it suffers in its basic function (being a keyboard). It's ok if you hunt and peck on the keyboard I guess… but anyone that types more than 40 words a minute is going to be frustrated because the keyboard has a lot of lag. Even when you crank the sensitivity up to maximum, it's too touchy and still doesn't pickup all the key presses. So it will double some presses and completely miss others. An example is the shift key, which is a real deal breaker for me personally. I have to stop everything and take one hand and hit the shift key pretty hard and then hit the letter or key I need to capitalize. It's a real pain in the butt.
Cleankeys Wireless Keyboard – FRUSTRATING
I found it incredibly frustrating to do things as simple as reply to an email with just a few words on the Cleankeys Wireless Keyboard. I can't imagine being in a Dentist Office or other medial place and having my patient wait as I fight a bigger battle with my cleankeys wireless keyboard trying to get their prescription printed out than I did with their root canal.
I always feel bad about writing reviews like this about great product ideas. I feel like it might strangle a small company, or make them want to close shop out frustration. I hope that doesn't happen. It's a great idea, but they really need to retool their design and worry less about wireless functionality and "Capacitive touch" and more about response and use. Nobody cares about wireless keyboards, especially in an environment like a doctor's office, waiting for the DR to swap batteries or charge a keyboard is absurd. The argument is there is no need he can keep it plugged in… exactly… so what's the point in having a wireless device that has incredibly poor performance? Make a wired keyboard, sans the 'capacitive touch' gimmick that is a hassle enough to deal with on a tablet and you will have a great product.
Cleankeys Wireless Keyboard – Sum it up.
That is the best way I can describe the Cleankeys Wireless Keyboard… a poorly implemented on screen tablet keyboard that has to rely on a wireless signal to send the characters it happens to catch to the computer…. (So think tablet or phone keyboard with laggy response).
1 out of 5 stars for the Cleankeys Wireless Keyboard. 1 star because it is a great idea, and -4 for the implementation.
You can see Randy Marsden (who is actually a really respected innovator and creator of Swype) he is the founder and CEO of Cleankeys. (Picture below). If you look on the desk behind him, you will see he has a 4 Cleankeys Wireless keyboards lined up on his desk. Pushed aside is the keyboard that the person at that desk actually uses on a day-to-day basis I would imagine… it isn't a Cleankeys Wireless Keyboard… Likely because they feel the same way..

Nightforce NXS scopes
I am interested in buying a nightforce NXS scope for long range hunting out to 1000 yards. Which one would have the best overall clarity and high power magnification?....Price is no question, I am willing to sell out for a good scope.

I don't think you'll see much difference within the NF brand. As I've posted before, I think the 5-22x50 will work well for you. I chose the 3.5-15x because I plan to shoot more mid-range and I think 15x is adequate for occasional long stuff. If price is really no factor, look at S&B. Very nice pieces.

I did not think I would ever buy a Nightforce scope. I have what is considered good glass on my rifles now ( Leupold VXIII and Nikon Monarch ).
Quite by chance, I was at the range and a guy was working on his sight in and during a break, I asked to look through his scope. He had an 8-32X56 NXS on his rifle.
He told me I could manipulate all the controls. . .so I did.
I have never seen a scope that impressed me that much in my life.
It just so happened that my local dealer had two of them in stock. . .now he has one.
I mounted that on a 700BDL 22-250 and to say I am pleased would be an understatement.
I have seen quite a few reviews of other high end scopes like Schmidt And Bender and Hensholdt.
I am afraid to look through one. I spent a lot of money for the Nightforce. Probably 3 times what I have in the rifle. I would do it again.
I don't know how much better those scopes are over the Nightforce, but according to some who have used both, there is a lot of difference.
If money is not an issue, then at least look at some of them before you decide.

I have the 5.5x22 and my bud has the 3.5x15. Personally had I known how the reticles differed I would have gone with the lower power as my friend did. It has plenty of stadias to get out to 1K and beyond as does the 22x but the lower power isn't as conflicted with mirage as mine is on the higher powers. Once the sun get up you can bet the higher power will be backed down to around 18 or lower.
As for the others yes they are wonderful as well. It is nice to be able to state price is not an option, but that is something I will probably never be able to say. It took me almost two years to get the first one so I highly doubt that since things have tightened up I will be adding to my collection.
I would also say to add Huskemaw to the list of ones to look into as well. Huskemaw Optics/
They have had very high reviews from some LR shooters on another board.
Good luck with your purchase, I hope it does well for you.

I have found that the name however does not always fit the bill. I always look through any optics I purchase as it will be my eye alone that decides if it has the clearness, brightness, parralax, or lack of, that will make it a good enough scope for my uses.
For years I used Leupold, and found them wonderfully fine, but when things tightened up financially, I had to choose something of less expense, and purchased a Burris, then later on a Nikon. Since I have found that quite a few of the not top end scopes work equally as well in 95% of all the situations I use them for, and in the other 5%, I highly doubt that an extra grand would produce any better results.
When I purchased a set of field glasses, I found that while I had the funds to get any one of the top of the line brands, it was the lower priced Nikon's, which were brighter, clearer, and even water proof, where the others simply didn't impress me. Yes they were the recommended can't live without brand names, but they just didn't work for me and I ended up getting two pair of the Nikons for the price of one of them with change left over.
I always recommend to look at or through any optic before a purchase. Every eye is different and will determine the end users satisfaction with any product.

CAIRO (Reuters) - At least 61 people have been injured in central Cairo, some with bullet wounds, during clashes between police and protesters on the anniversary of lethal street violence between activists and security forces.
Activists called the protest on Monday to put pressure on President Mohamed Mursi to punish those responsible for killings and abuses during the rule of the generals who assumed power after Hosni Mubarak was toppled by an uprising in February 2011.
The skirmishes, which extended into Tuesday, erupted at the scene of clashes last year in which 42 people were killed during protests against the military council that ran the country before Mursi was elected in June.
Some activists said the latest bout of violence began when police forces threw rocks at protesters on Monday to try to stop them from taking down concrete barriers that have blocked off roads to the Interior Ministry since last year. They said they had a court order allowing the barriers to be removed.
Nineteen people have been arrested during the clashes, in which protesters hurling stones and petrol bombs at police guarding the Interior Ministry were repelled with teargas.
Some protesters said security personnel threw stones at them from the top of a school building on Tuesday.
Some of the protesters taken to hospital were severely injured from birdshot and bullets, state news agency MENA said.
A member of the 6th of April youth movement, Gaber Salah, was wounded with birdshot in the head, neck, chest and arms and put on life support in intensive care, MENA said.
In an address on state television on Tuesday, Prime Minister Hisham Kandil said: "We support peaceful protests ... but under all circumstances people cannot attack buildings or police because police protect our buildings and children."
The public prosecutor has ordered an investigation, said MENA, giving the figures for the arrested and injured.
Last year's street battles started when police pulled down the tents of protesters who had camped overnight in Tahrir Square - the heart of the uprising against Mubarak - after a demonstration against the generals.
That prompted thousands of protesters to return to the square and clashes erupted. The violence became known as the "Mohamed Mahmoud events" after the street in which they took place. The street is located off Tahrir Square.
In Monday's protest, stones and empty bottles were hurled by demonstrators and 24 people were injured, including four policemen, by the early hours of Tuesday.
Television footage early on Tuesday showed different groups of people present in the area from the previous evening.
The footage showed children and teenagers, some of them carrying school backpacks, taking part. Some were shown throwing rocks at buildings. One youth was pictured using a fire extinguisher to smash a window.
Protests, which have become frequent in Egypt since Mubarak's overthrow, often begin calmly before attracting what some democracy activists have described as delinquent youths looking for trouble.

A resolute defensive performance in the Russian city of Perm was enough to secure Fulham a place in the UEFA Europa League Group Stages, but not before a dramatic climax threatened to snatch it away from under our noses.
Having been treated to a hostile welcome on their arrival in Russia, the Fulham team knew to expect a partisan audience at the Zvezda Stadium for their UEFA Europa League Play-Off second-leg, and they weren't disappointed as the local fans turned out in force to support their team.
With Andrew Johnson injured from the first-leg, and Danny Murphy, Bobby Zamora and Paul Konchesky nursing knocks back home, Roy Hodgson's options were already limited, even before Clint Dempsey was also left out at the last minute as a precaution.
As a result, the starting line-up was noticeably different from the regular 11 that played so many games together in qualifying for Europe last term. There were spots in the team for summer signings Stephen Kelly (at left-back), Bjorn Helge Riise (right-midfield) and Damien Duff (free role). Meanwhile, Erik Nevland started alone up front.
Buoyed by their boisterous fans, Amkar started positively, using their possession well to push on to the Whites' rearguard. However, the defence and midfield were clearly up to the challenge, and turned their opponents away every time.
The first real moment of action came after 11 minutes when a foul was awarded on the edge of the Whites' box for a questionable infringement. The subsequent free-kick was floated in, but headed out for an Amkar corner. The resulting set piece at first flew over entire box, but when it was redelivered, it caused a moment of panic as Kushev almost got to it, just yards from goal, before the ball was scrapped away.
Moments later there was a corner at the other end, but Dickson Etuhu's leap wasn't quite high enough to repeat his goal from the second leg in the previous round.
The story of the first-half was mostly of Amkar throwing everything forward, but coming up against tough resistance from the Fulham midfield and defence. The result was a less than enthralling contest for the most part as both sides cancelled each other out.
Indeed, it was almost half an hour before the first real opportunity of any note, when a quick interchange between Jean Carlos and Kushev in the box led to a shooting chance for the latter. However, Hangeland intervened at the last second to knock the ball out for a corner, which was headed over by Sirakov seconds later.
Still, that moment spurred the crowd on and they, in turn, pushed their team to create another great opening. After another goalmouth scrap, Jean Carlos managed to find space to volley powerfully from close range. Fortunately Schwarzer was equal to his effort, getting down well to deflect the shot away. Within a couple of minutes there was a similar chance for Kushev, but this time it was blocked well by Stephen Kelly.
Then, just before the break, there was another close call for Fulham. Schwarzer couldn't quite claim a corner from the left and the ball landed right onto Kushev's head. At first it bounced directly up, giving the striker a second chance, but again his header rose quickly, this time looping over the bar, wasting the last chance of the half.
Amkar started the second period with the same purpose that they ended the first, and Kushev had his first shot within moments of the restart, although his long-range effort never looked like troubling Schwarzer as it sailed over.
But the Bulgarian striker was guilty of spurning two more promising opportunities in the minutes that followed. Firstly, he received a low cross from the right from Peev inside the six-yard-box, but with time to turn, he rushed his shot and it rolled wide with the goal at his mercy.
Immediately following that, he somehow mistimed his header as another teasing cross flew in, this time from the left, missing the ball completely to Fulham's relief.
The first booking of the match was handed out on 63 minutes, to John Pantsil who was guilty of a deliberate trip down Amkar's left side. However, Schwarzer was able to punch the resulting set piece to safety.
Just after that, Fulham had their most promising attack of the match to that point. A defensive lapse allowed Damien Duff time and space on the left. But as the winger waited for support, the Amkar backline retreated and Cherenchikov was able to make a crucial interception as Duff tried to play the final pass square to Nevland.
The two almost combined moments later too, but Nevland was adjudged to be offside as he ran on to an incisive through pass. That was the Norwegian's final touch of the game as he was replaced by Diomansy Kamara on 67 minutes.
Five minutes later there were some tense seconds as a long, low through-ball from deep right by Sirakov managed to find its way through to the Fulham area. Kushev chased onto it, but Schwarzer was just able to get there first and push the ball away. With the keeper out of his goal though, the danger was not averted and John Pantsil had to stand tall to thwart Gaal as he tried to find space for a shot. It was eventually cleared away by Etuhu.
With 15 minutes remaining, Roy Hodgson made another change, bringing on Seol Ki-Hyeon for Bjorn Helge Riise. And the first thing Seol witnessed was Zoltan Gera finding the target with a cheeky low free-kick. However, his effort failed to trouble Narubin, who scooped the ball up with ease.
As the game entered the final 10 minutes, large sections of the crowd lit sparklers, whilst others sparked up flares, as they again raised their volume. However, Dickson Etuhu almost silenced them as he surged forward unchallenged. The Nigerian eventually shot low, catching Narubin off guard, but his effort rolled wide of the left post.
A couple of minutes later Fulham had another opportunity as Gera fed Kamara. The striker jinked inside one defender, but was cynically brought down on the edge of the box by another who was give a booking for his misdemeanour. The resultant free-kick was fired over by Kamara.
In the final minute though, just as some of the home fans headed for the exits, Amkar got the lifeline they had craved all night. A cross from the right was met by a leaping Kushev who powered a header past Schwarzer off the crossbar, sending the crowd into raptures and setting up a dramatic three minutes of added time.
Immediately Amkar threw everyone forward and came within inches of getting the second that would have put them through, but Zhilayev fired over after being played in by Kushev.
As the clock ticked down, despite the willing of thousands of Russian fans, it was Fulham that almost grabbed the final goal. Joe Kamara had been trying to hold the ball in the corner, but instead it broke loose to Duff who spotted Seol on the edge of the penalty area.
He played the ball back to the Korean, who took his time and tried to place his shot, but his passed effort rolled wide.
It was the last meaningful moment of the match though and the final whistle soon blew, confirming Fulham's place in the Group Stages of the Europa League proper.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) Kenny Boynton scored 20 points and Florida used a 31-6 run across the halves to rout LSU 74-52 on Saturday.
Patric Young had 14 points for the Gators (12-2, 2-0 SEC). Boynton's perimeter shooting and Young's interior play were instrumental in Florida controlling the offensive end.
The Tigers (9-4, 0-2) stuck around well into the first half before Florida broke a 19-all tie with a 10-1 run to end the half, punctuated by Scottie Wilbekin's jumper at the buzzer.
Anthony Hickey scored 15 points for LSU, who have lost 4 of 7 after starting the season with six-straight wins.
French center Will Yeguete had 10 points and 13 rebounds to lead Florida, which outrebouned LSU 53-34. Five Gators had at least seven rebounds.
Both teams struggled to find their shots early, but Florida's aggressive defensive rebounding and stingy possessions allowed them to build a 15-10 lead. The Tigers rallied with Anthony Hickey finding Andrew Del Piero slicing through the paint to lay in a tying basket.
The Gators expanded their lead in cutthroat fashion to open the second half, scoring 12 of the half's first 15 points to go up 41-25. Boynton made two 3-pointers and scored eight points in the first five minutes.
LSU created opportune looks at the basket all game, but shot 32.3 percent. With the 13 minutes to go in the second half, the Tigers were shooting a meager 25 percent.

The BNP say goodbye to Lee John Barnes
August 10, 2010 Leave a comment
Lee John Barnes, the subject of much fun for many anti-fascist bloggers, will no longer act as legal director for the British National Party.
In his resignation letter (which you can read on his website, you know where it is, no links from here) he despairs at the "avoidable court cases" the BNP have become involved in under the orders of "Nick Griffin and Jim Dowson [who] have repeatedly chosen to break the most obvious of laws".
Those cases, LJB cites as:
- The Marmite Case
- The use of stock images from a photoshop company during the European Elections
- The EHRC court cases
- The sacking of Michaela Mackenzie
- The suspension of Peter Mullins and many others
LJB has accused Griffin of ignoring his advice, then later referring to him in an Employment Tribunal as a 'crank'.
During the conclusion of his rambling resignation (3000 words in length), LJB admits that he:
cannot remain as the Legal Officer of a party that acts unlawfully towards its own members, that rewards years of party loyalty with unlawful suspensions and expulsions, that covers up serious allegations of sexual abuse by senior officers, that expels long standing members who ask for financial transparency within the party and that refuses to act to protect its own officers when they are threatened with violence by other senior officers.
He finishes up by saying: "[s]uch a political party cannot be trusted with political power in our society."
On his blog, LJB accuses BNP officers such as Griffin, Andrew Brons, Simon Darby and Andrew Moffat, of "going around telling people [he] was 'expelled' and that [he] did not resign." He goes on to explain how "[t]hey are paid to lie – to the members and the public" and that he does "so despise liars and idiots" and who he calls "the Griffinite idiot squad."
Clues of an unsteady relationship between LBJ and other members of the BNP hierarchy had been present for some time. Griffin, notably uncomfortable talking about LJB, told Iain Dale during an interview for Total Politics, that he is "a very strange and complex character".
Dale wondered why Griffin continues to employ "someone obsessed by Jewish issues to hold national office in the BNP" to which Griffin replied:
As I say, if you look at his blogs and his arguments with people in the round, you will see that he's one of the people who's taken the obsession with Jews out of the BNP. It was there. But he's one of the ones who've taken it out by putting it in context.
Reading what LJB has said before about Jewish conspiracies, it is difficult to place what "context" Griffin is talking of here; but then this is a man who thinks the English Defence League are run by Zionists and who has authored a book called Who are the Mindbenders? about the Jewish dominated media – perhaps not the greatest authority on the subject.
We all have our favourite LJB moments, whether here or here, and now that he has stopped pulling his hair out over the stupid BNP, no doubt he will have more time to appeal to his Norse Gods and troll websites seeking out undercover Jewish plots – though he will not be welcomed.

SF lawyer unlocked door for condemned man
CATCHING UP: With Dennis Riordan
San Francisco attorney Dennis Riordan plays a key role in the new documentary "West of Memphis: Death Row Exoneration," opening at San Francisco's Embarcadero theaters on Friday. Along with his law partner, Don Horgan, Riordan represented Damien Echols, who spent 18 years on death row in Arkansas before he was exonerated and freed in August 2011.
Echols was the supposed ringleader of the "West Memphis Three," the teenagers convicted of a 1993 triple murder of 8-year-old boys in West Memphis, Ark. The case became an international cause celebre and has been the subject of three HBO documentaries.
Q: How were you pulled into the case in 2004?
A: I got a call from Lorri Davis, who married Damien in 1999. She believed the case had to go into federal court, and they needed a federal habeas corpus lawyer. I hadn't followed the case since 1993, but knew it as a horrendous set of murders involving three teenage "satanists." I became aware that the other two defendants had also found their way to San Francisco counsel. (John Philipsborn represented Jason Baldwin, and Michael Burt, a top DNA lawyer, represented Jessie Misskelley.)
Q: The earlier HBO documentaries attracted the support of celebrities including Johnny Depp, the Dixie Chicks' Natalie Maines, and Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder, among others.
A: We are in the third HBO documentary. We were involved for 7 1/2 years of the 18-year case. In both the HBO film and the new one ("West of Memphis" was directed by Amy Berg and produced by Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh), there is footage of the oral argument we made in the Arkansas Supreme Court that was the key to unlocking the door. They had gone 16 years without a legal victory.
Q: What did you argue?
A: We argued that you have to open this case up to all the new evidence. That started the process that 10 months later led to their release.
Q: How is "West of Memphis" different from the HBO documentaries?
A: Peter Jackson ("Lord of the Rings") and Walsh, his wife and screenwriter, saw the HBO documentaries. They went on and dug up people including a jailhouse snitch and got him to admit he had made up testimony against Baldwin. They did a lot of investigative things, funded the forensic pathologist and established these credible links.
Q: But what was it that got them freed?
A: It was a long process, but you can point to an accumulation of four or five discoveries. We made a discovery of a single hair in a ligature binding on one of the boys, and we matched it to a stepfather of one of the boys. The stepfather had never been investigated. His name is Terry Hobbs, and he was deposed and said he hadn't seen the kids that day. Then one of his neighbors came forward and said he'd seen him with the three boys just minutes before they were murdered.
Q: Tell me about a current case that's consuming your thoughts.
A: I'm getting ready to argue the Barry Bonds appeal next week. He was convicted on one count of obstructing justice by giving a misleading answer. I don't think there's any factual or legal basis to it.
Q: How do you handle losing?
A: That's primarily what we do. You have to try to find a way to maintain some balance between being personally involved in these cases and on the other hand being able to accept that you will likely lose at some point along the way. You develop some scar tissue.
Q: Where did you grow up?
A: New York.
Q: What did you want to be?
A: The assumption was I would be a lawyer because my father was a lawyer. After college, I didn't have the imagination to figure out something else that I would do.
Q: If you weren't a lawyer, what would you be?
A: Well, I haven't dedicated a lot of thought to that. But I have a daughter whose mother is also a lawyer. Our daughter swore she would never become a lawyer. She has become a journalist, and she spends an enormous amount of her time writing about legal stuff. In some ways, she is just so much freer to cover anything that interests her. It makes me think that would be a good thing to do.
Movie review: "West of Memphis" will be reviewed in Friday's Datebook

Government forfeitures; big business for feds
Federal asset forfeiture can be both an effective crime-fighting tool and a civil-liberties nightmare that has victimized many innocent citizens. Take a look back at some of the biggest cases involving corporations, kingpins and civilians.

McIlroy frustrated by Friday form
Two-time major winner Rory McIlroy spent some time outlining how he plans to combat his debilitating second-day syndrome but inconsistencies in the argument suggested he needs to convince himself more than he does the world's media.
The Northern Irishman seems to have developed an unhelpful habit of being great on Thursday and poor on Friday.
Last week at the Scottish Open he carded a course-record 64 on the first day at Royal Aberdeen but followed up with a 78.
A repeat at Royal Liverpool this week would be disastrous to his hopes of winning the Claret Jug as the weather is expected to take a turn for the worse on Friday and anyone not on top of their game is likely to be blown off course.
"It's one (problem) that I'd like to try to stop this week. I think it is," said McIlroy, whose first-round scoring average of just under 68 leads the PGA Tour but his second-round average is almost five shots worse.
"It's more I just got it into my head and I may be putting a bit too much pressure on myself, going out on Fridays and trying to back up a score.
"I have no problem shooting a low one on Thursday, there should be no reason I have any problem shooting a low one on Friday.
"I think I just got into my head. It's something that I need to go out and pretend like it's a Thursday again or go out and just....I don't know, but it's more going out and thinking about it and really trying to get off to a solid start instead of just going out and trying.
"Just play and play a few solid holes and get your round under way that way.
"Hopefully this week I can start to turn that second-round thing around and start shooting some better scores.
"It just seems like I've just been caught out this year by a bad stretch of holes every tournament.
"I shot three over for the front nine at Wentworth on the Friday (on his way to winning the BMW PGA Championship) but recovered shooting four under on the back nine.
"So if I can just eliminate that - I think it's easier to eliminate some of the bad stuff than it is to try to find some of the good stuff because the good stuff is in there, obviously, with some of the low scores I'm shooting.
"I just try to need to keep it a little tighter when things aren't 100 per cent on the golf course."
Although McIlroy may talk about trying to keep a tight rein on things when the going gets tough, he is still reluctant to play an entirely conservative game.
While Tiger Woods will again employ the no-driver tactic which took him to victory on this course in 2006 - he famously used his driver just once in 72 holes - the Northern Irishman will continue to look to blast it out there on some of the longer holes.
"He (Woods) played the course the way he felt comfortable playing the course and he obviously has the talent and was good enough to be able to make it work," McIlroy said.
"I think with the course conditions, I don't think it's going to be an option to hit an iron off every tee box.
"I think you're going to have to be slightly aggressive off the tee and take some things on, especially as we've got four par fives that are all reachable.
"The ball is not going to run too much on the fairways and everyone is different but I feel like you've got to be slightly aggressive off the tees here this week, just because it's not as firm as it was back in 2006.
"I think that the driver is one of the best clubs in my bag and I do hit it well, and when I'm on I can take advantage of that length and make golf courses pretty short for myself.
"You just have to make your game plan so that you're comfortable with it and you don't deviate from it.
"I wouldn't say I'm addicted to the length that I hit it (having smashed one drive 425 yards in Scotland last week).
"Yeah, I guess I hit it long off the tee but not always straight so I'd rather hit it 290, 300 (yards) in the fairway every time - that would make life much easier."

Any of you who read this and know me personally know that I am an extremely private person; so this is a difficult subject for me to write about. I really think that there are a lot of women who have questions about intimacy and it's not often the first thing on your mind when you get diagnosed with cancer. Questions like, "Will I want to have sex as often? Will it feel the same?" are not typically what you ask after diagnosis. Well, you get my drift, there are much bigger "fish to fry" it's simply not the first thing running through your head when you are listening to that unbelievable sentence that you have just heard, "You have cancer."
First of all, just thinking about sex issues after breast cancer makes me feel ungrateful! I am alive, so why should it matter if I don't have "real" nipples anymore, or if my stomach is numb and I cannot feel the closeness of a man on top of me in the middle half of my body? But the truth is that it does matter.
I believe it is possible to have a wonderful sex life after cancer, but a lot of what happens here has to do you with you. Are you able to leave breast cancer out of the bedroom (at least most of the time)? How do you feel about your body post treatment? How do you feel about yourself post treatment? Can you stay awake long enough to have sex?
Why then, this time, is it so different for me? Is it because I am a mom now and have no time for myself? Has age affected my hormones? Whatever the cause, the worst part is that I fear that it is not temporary, but permanent. I no longer have feeling in the middle of my stomach or in my breast. It's strange, because I can still feel my skin, so it's hard to decipher what I can and cannot feel.
I know if I ask my doctors exactly what the change is about they will say, "You have had six months of chemo, breast cancer twice, radiation, several surgeries and you are probably just entering early menopause which can bring on hormonal change." I know my body well enough to know this isn't the reason. I don't know why after my first encounter with breast cancer that I didn't have many of these feelings. I only had part of my breast removed and so I still had normal sensation in my breast and other than the worst days of chemotherapy and constant exhaustion, I still actually felt very sexy.
With so many women being so much worse off than me, I feel ashamed to even bring it up, but I miss the pleasure of the entire connection of the bodies…I know I should just be grateful I'm alive but I am sad.

Stop complaining.
Quit your whining.
Stop comparing what you have or don't have to someone else.
Don't act like a victim.
Happiness is your choice, kid.
Only you can make the difference between a great day and a crappy one.
So smile, keep your head held high, be a good friend, laugh, show kindness, participate and be sure to be silly. See, it'll rub off on those around you.
Make today as awesome as you are.

Regardless of your heritage, you're probably very aware of St. Patrick's Day. Celebrated each year on March 17, it's a day when people from all sorts of national and ethnic backgrounds dip a toe in Irish culture. Many observe the day by sporting a bright green shirt and meeting up with friends at a favorite local Irish pub. But there's a lot more to St. Patrick's Day than simply wearing green and knocking back a pint of Guinness.
For instance, who was Saint Patrick? Is it true that he was taken prisoner by Irish raiders? Why do we devote an entire day to him? And how do shamrocks and the Blarney stone fit into this holiday's history?
As the luck of the Irish would have it, we've got the answers to these questions as well as lots more information about this historic holiday.

The Sacramento State athletics department encourages competitive female collegiate and high school athletes who possess a great work ethic and are driven to succeed to try out for the women's rowing team.
No prior rowing experience is necessary. Approximately two-thirds of our roster is composed of athletes who took their first strokes at Sacramento State, including recent all-West Region Hornet alums Stephanie Brow (2004), Laura Harder (2005), Aimee Chenard (2008) and Holly Hopkins (2010).
Rowing at Sacramento State provides female athletes without any rowing experience a rare opportunity to become a member of a varsity, NCAA Division I team. Interested athletes can get started by filling out this questionnaire. For more information, contact Mike Connors at firstname.lastname@example.com or (916) 278-4265.
We are seeking student-athletes to be rowers and coxswains. We spend most of your first semester in rowing learning the basic technique and establishing some base level of fitness. Rowing has fall races, but our traditional race season is spring so the intensity and amount of training will increase as we get closer to our first 2000-meter race in March. This allows the athlete to adapt gradually to the workload and schedule demands over time as you settle into your first year of college.
The women's rowing program gained intercollegiate status at Sacramento State in 1995, and since that time, has accounted for six conference championships. In 2016, the Hornets completed their second season in the American Athletic Conference.
The Hornets compete at the Sacramento State Aquatic Center, which is widely considered the premier rowing site in the country. In fact, the facility has hosted many regional and national events, including the 1997, 1999, 2004, 2005, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2015 and 2016 NCAA Women's Rowing Championships, the Pacific-10 Conference Championships, the Western Intercollegiate Rowing Association Championships, the Pacific Coast Rowing Championships, and the S.W. Jr. Regional High School Championships. In addition, the facility hosted the 2016 American Athletic Conference Championship.

Something I highly recommend doing is creating teaching videos for your position group. These clips are from the 2007 season when I coached WRs for a team that did not throw the ball that much, but we took a lot of pride in our blocking (most of our passing highlights weren't even from our WRs, they were from our TE). It takes a bit of work to create a highlight video for your position but the task is made easier with programs like Hudl. You tag the plays you want and then you can add some music if you like. It helps to reinforce the effort and performance we are looking for and it gives younger players entering into your football program something to reference and strive for.
Here is a WR coach with a whole lot of Big Plays in this great video. Thanks to Dub Maddox for allowing me to share:

Easters chocolates and cards...
Musicals and plays in London...
This Easter you might celebrate by going to a parade, eating a big family dinner or taking the kids to fill their baskets at a local egg hunt. You might even save a few chocolate eggs to savour yourself...
But if you lived in Britain a few centuries ago, your holiday would be quite a bit different.
Easter is commonly known as a Christian holiday, marking the end of Lent and celebrating Jesus' resurrection after being crucified and buried. But the celebrating is actually more than 2,000 years old, predating the religion.
The original festivities honoured Eostre, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of dawn and spring, and the first holidays celebrated new life, fertility and the earth's escape from the harsh holds of winter.
That's how eggs came in. Pagans thought eggs had special powers, and the ancient Romans believed they were miniature symbols of the universe. Just like a young chick breaks through its hard shell, the planet blooms into full colour each spring.
Eggs feature in a number of unusual ceremonies today, like the ones at Preston in Lancashire. Easter celebrants hold egg rolling competitions each year in which they roll hard boiled eggs down a hill to see whose can travel furthest. In a game played in other regions, two competitors hold eggs in their palms, then hit their eggs against one another. The player whose egg cracks first loses.
As popular as the bunnies are in today's celebrations, they ended up being the losers in ancient holidays. Hares represented Eostre and an ancient moon goddess, but they were hunted for sport on Easter weekend. Luckily for today's children, you won't find anything so violent at this year's egg hunts.
Today, Easter is often celebrated with food. Hams are common on Easter Sunday in the UK, along with roast lamb, which is also the traditional main course for Jewish Passover. For Easter breakfast, many families eat boiled eggs before exchanging gifts and cards. Those with a sweet tooth might enjoy a cup of tea and simnel cake, originally given to women on Mothering Sunday.
Hot cross buns are the typical fare on Good Friday (the day when Jesus was crucified). The Widow's Son pub in Bromley-by-Bow displays a collection of hot cross buns in honour of a widow who baked one of the treats for her son who died at sea. A sailor adds one new bun to the stock each year.
Dance troupes liven up Easter celebrations by performing Morris dances, routines that probably originated in the Middle Ages.
Whatever you do this holiday, you'll have plenty of options to entertain yourself in London. Check LondonNet's complete listing of events and activities to find the perfect thing for your celebration this year. Whether you're interested in fine dining, egg hunts or a wild night of clubbing, we'll show you where to go.

Windows 10 Auto start Thunderbird
Discuss various technical topics not related to Mozilla.
9 posts • Page 1 of 1
No matter what I do I cannot auto start Thunderbird with Windows 10. I tried every known start location, Start Folder, registry, Task Scheduler, Startup Delayer, Autorun Organizer, even wrote a batch file to start Thunderbird and use that instead of the actual executable. I can manually run Thunderbird without any issues.
Why won't Thunderbird auto start?
Using Windows 10.15063.632 Pro x64 on a Dell Optiplex 7050
It is not a good Idea to start TB in the Autostart of Windows
A better way to start TB automatically is to create a CMD Job like this:
Start "Thunderbird" "c:\?????????\thunderbird.exe"
timeout 10
Give a name to this file and put it in the autostart folder... (name by example compmgr.cmd)
With this kind of batch job you can also start other programs.
Moving to MozillaZine Tech as this is not really a Thunderbird bug issue.
I quite agree, a delay for Thunderbird is a good idea, because thunderbird (and startup in particular) is IO intensive and sensitive. I'd make it even longer - 30-60 seconds delay.
However, I don't know of any reason why TB startup would have failed in this case.
@wsmwk "However, I don't know of any reason why TB startup would have failed in this case." perhaps an other Startup programm create a conflict ...
We use now very often a cmd Job in the autostart to start some programms after the Windows start .. then we can kill the job before he start the first program and we can ask for each program ... start XXX y/n and select with this the start of all these programms. It is also possible to ask start all or start only selected.
On Notebooks we have some settings in a veracrypt Container (by example access informations to our domains) ... we use this cmd file also to open the container. (the cmd ask for the password opens the container with the settings). When the container is mounted, the cmd job opens also some programs like the autostart but after that the ordinary autostart is done.
A delayed autostart in Task Scheduler should have been more than enough to run TB at login.
Latest: Firefox/72.0.1 *ESR/68.4.1 - Mobile/72.0 - Thunderbird/68.4.1
Nightly: Nightly/74.0a1 - Mobile/74.0a1 - Daily/74.0a1
I don't know enough to tell you anything intelligent. However. I will say: Tb is a slow starter in my W 10. When I start up, and click Chrome, it almost pops off the screen. When I click Firefox, it's a little slower. When I click any of my files, they are next. And Tb is the last window to open. And I'm not smart enough to know where the problem lies. So, if I click on Tb first, and click on all those others next, they are all open before Tb = always the last. This is FYI.
> I'd make it even longer - 30-60 seconds delay.
I must have been on drugs - better choice would be 2-3 minutes.
@dcol This kind of problems comes up some times on to W10 upgraded Systems. Please have a look to c:\Users\---username ---\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\ it is possible that this folder does not exist ... then Windows 10 can not start auto-start programs

John Grade's Capacitor is a site-specific installation which reacts to the climate of the site it inhabits. Located within the John Michael Kohler Arts Center in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, this enormous coil is roughly 40′ x 20′ x 20′ and slowly reacts to the changing wind directions and temperatures of the outside environment. Physically behaving according to statistics collected outside the institution, a mechanized controller within the installation powers the enormous coil's shape. According to Grade, "the whole of the sculpture will appear to be very slowly breathing". Capacitor also changes the brightness of the lights within the construct, giving an entire reaction to outside elements. (contemporist and artist's site)
