Morgan's preferred choice to get the job Ferguson vacated in the summer was Jose Mourinho, someone he feels was ideally suited to the pressure cooker environment at Old Trafford.
Instead, Ferguson nominated Moyes, who is now wrestling with the wreckage of a campaign on the brink of meltdown after three successive defeats to start 2014, plus the unwanted controversy surrounding Chris Smalling and his questionable attire at a fancy dress party.
Seventh in the Premier League, Moyes faces a battle to salvage a Champions League spot, while United will need to overcome a first-leg deficit when they play Sunderland in the Capital One Cup semi-final on January 22.
"I don't think Moyes was the right man," said Morgan.
"He has bought Marouane Fellaini for £27.5million and given Nani a new five-year contract when they have been trying to sell him for ages.
"On Moyes, I rest my case. What credentials did he have to take over the biggest club in the world?
"But I have nothing against him. I hope he is successful. But I just don't see it. Not with the players he has got.
"United might have won the league by 11 points last year but Moyes inherited the weakest squad we have had for a long, long time.
"If Robin van Persie had not been in the team last year, they would have finished halfway up the league.
"He was the difference and now Van Persie is injured."
The damning words will be cold comfort for Moyes, even though United have continued to insist he is under no internal pressure.
For Morgan, though, it is a worrying reminder of his own time at the club.
Much like Van Persie, when he arrived from Burnley in 1968, United were part of the elite, having just been crowned European Cup winners for the first time.
Within six years, they had been relegated, with Wilf McGuinness and Frank O'Farrell both proving incapable of filling the void created by Sir Matt Busby's exit, who briefly came out of retirement to try and halt the slide.
"I joined a great team but after Matt retired, it broke up very quickly," said Morgan.
"The players Wilf McGuinness brought in were nice lads but talent wise, they were dreadful.
"The problem is once you get into that cycle it is very difficult to get out of it.
"We said when Moyes was appointed it was the beginning of the end and, sadly, I fear they will struggle for the next few years now."
Morgan had little time for McGuiness, as he recounts in his recently-released autobiography 'On The Wing'.
The book chronicles his early career at Burnley, which made him one of the most sought-after players of his generation, his friendship with George Best and his regret that Tommy Docherty "a good manager but not a nice man" quit the Scotland job to become United boss, a move Morgan felt cost his country at the 1974 World Cup while ultimately ending his time at United.
"I do feel I wasted myself at Manchester United," said Morgan, who still lives in the area.
"They were hard years. But I never thought about baling out.
"I loved Manchester United. I loved the supporters. They were unbelievable, even when we were struggling. They are still the same now.
"I would have done anything for them."

What could a TMA Membership mean for you, your practice, and your patients
What the Quality Payment Program (QPP) lacks in simplicity, it makes up for in deck-stacking. In the January issue, read how after three years, Medicare's program to drive value-based care continues to generate confusion, frustration, and worry that it's only going to swallow up more physicians in its complex and financially punitive gameplay. Plus, a new state initiative could boost access to long-acting reversible contraceptives, or LARCs.

COLUMBUS — This weekend's "Battle of the Best" is set for Saturday night at Crew Stadium. And, fingers crossed, we are all expecting the league's final two undefeateds, the LA Galaxy and Columbus Crew, to put on a spectacle of beautiful soccer. (Or not. It could very well turn into a defensive chess match.)
Regardless of how it turns out, how many goals are scored, and who wins, it will be another in a long list of great matches that have been played at MLS' first soccer-specific stadium over the years. Here are our favorites.
1. U.S. vs. Mexico, WCQ, Feb. 28, 2001
The infamous "La Guerra Fria" or "Cold War." It was 29 degrees at kickoff with the wind chill in the teens. The U.S. rolled to a 2-0 victory behind goals from Josh Wolff and Earnie Stewart before a very pro-American crowd.
2. Columbus Crew vs. Chicago, Eastern Conference Final, Nov. 13, 2008
It was a cold, dark night but the Crew rallied from a 1-0 halftime deficit on goals by Chad Marshall and Eddie Gaven to beat its hated rival and advance to its first MLS Cup
3. MLS Cup, Oct. 21, 2001
Dwayne DeRosario's overtime goal gave San Jose a 2-1 win against Los Angeles for the Quakes' first title.
4. Columbus Crew vs. Kansas City, U.S. Open Cup semifinal, Sept. 10, 2002
Down 2-0, Edson Buddle scored in the 76th. John Wilmar Perez came off the bench and tied the game in the second minute of stoppage time and won it in the 109th minute.
5. Columbus Crew vs. Los Angeles, U.S. Open Cup final, Oct. 24, 2002
The Crew won their first trophy, 1-0. Freddy Garcia tallied in the 30th; Jon Busch made it stand with the help of a late goalline clear by Robert Warzycha in his final game.
6. U.S. vs. Mexico, WCQ, Feb. 11, 2009
It wasn't quite "La Guerra Frio Dos" but the conditions were chilly and blustery and the result was the same. As in 2001 and 2005, the Yanks prevailed 2-0.
7. Columbus Crew vs. New England, stadium opener, May 15, 1999
The christening of the stadium was the most significant event in Crew history but the game itself was almost an afterthought. Jeff Cunningham and Stern John scored for a 2-0 win before an overflow crowd of 24,741.
8. Columbus Crew vs. D.C. United, Eastern Conference Final, game 2, Nov. 7, 1999
A favorite of Warzycha. Trailing 2-1 in the series, the Crew came home and pounded D.C. United 5-1 behind Stern John's hat trick. Alas, D.C. advanced to and won the MLS Cup after beating the Crew 4-0 at RFK Stadium in the third game.
9. Columbus Crew vs. Newcastle United, July 26, 2000
Some will say this was the most intense match played at Crew Stadium even though it was only a friendly with the Premiership side. The match, a kickoff to the MLS All-Star Game three days later, ended 2-2 before 18,212.
10. Columbus Crew vs. DCU; May 19, 2001
In Greg Andrulis' head coaching debut, Jeff Cunningham scored in the 99th minute to beat D.C. United 2-1 despite the Crew being down two men for the final 32 minutes.

Katis turned in three winning performances to lead the Crimson at No. 8 Ohio State (OAC).
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Freshman Chuck Katis won three events as the Harvard men's swimming and diving team lost at No. 8 Ohio State Saturday, 181-118. The loss snapped the Crimson's 13-meet win streak and dropped the team to 4-1 overall, 4-0 Ivy League.
Katis' first victory came in the 100 breast as he finished in a time of 55.29. Owen Wurzbacher placed third in the event with a time of 57.08. Katis returned to the pool to capture the 200 breast in 2:03.43 with Jason Ting finishing third in 2:06.67.
Katis also led a 1-2-3 finish for the Crimson in the 200 IM. The freshman's time of 1:50.35 bested teammates Niall Janney (1:53.35) and Robert Newell (1:54.16) who placed second and third, respectively.
Harvard also received a winning performance from Chris Satterthwaite who took home the 200 free in a time of 1:39.09, just ahead of Zach Walters who placed second in 1:39.95. It was another 1-2-3 finish for Harvard in the 400 free relay, as the team of Griffin Schumacher, Walters, Satterthwaite and Oliver Lee combined for a winning time of 2:59.85. Spenser Goodman, Kyle McIntee, Greg Roop and Danny Crigler took second in 3:11.20, while Janney, Will Brophy, Brendan McIntee and Matthew McLean took third in 3:13.91.
Satterthwaite returned to the pool to place second in the 100 free with a time of 44.91, just shy of the winning time of 44.34. The 200 medley relay team of Jack Pretto, Katis, Lee and Schumacher also took second in 1:30.40, less than a second behind the winning time of 1:30.40.
Freshman Mike Mosca led the Crimson divers with a pair of third-place finishes. On the one-meter, Mosca posted a total of 331.65 points and on the three-meter he totaled 366.83 points.
Harvard will return to action when it hosts the annual HYP meet against Yale and Princeton at Blodgett Pool. The meet will run Feb. 3-4.

The U.S. military services are pressing ahead with efforts to deploy and update their family of standardized automatic test systems (ATS) despite the challenging budget environment. Last year, the Army launched initial low rate production, for example, of its Next Generation Automatic Test System (NGATS), which is slated to replace older integrated family of test equipment (IFTE) over the next few years; at the same time, the Navy is adding technology to its Reconfigurable Transportable Consolidated Automated Support System (RTCASS). As they update the systems, the services' key challenge is to field and maintain standardized testers that are capable of handling new and legacy aircraft technologies.
Introduced more than two decades ago, these standardized or common core systems each of which contains automatic test equipment (ATE), operating software and test program sets (TPS) are continuing to evolve. Over the last few years, the Navy's Consolidated Automated Support System (CASS), one of the earliest systems, has not only added RTCASS but is also itself is being upgraded into the new eCASS program. Meanwhile, the Air Force is more than a third of the way to deploying the 150 Versatile Depot Automatic Test Stations (VDATS) it planned to have in place by FY 2017. Although critical to the maintenance of a wealth of weapons systems, these tester programs are not immune to budget cutting, but with a stated primary goal of reducing the cost of ownership of DoD ATS, they would seem to be very much in sync with the efforts to trim Defense spending.
However, the across-the-board sequester cuts could throw a wrench in development plans, but "so far sequestration has had minimal impact on FY'13-budgeted activities," said Chris Clendenin, director of Boeing Defense, Space & Security Support Equipment & Services. Boeing is the prime contractor for RTCASS, a readily deployable version of CASS that is being produced to support Marine and U.S. Special Operations Command V-22 as well as USMC EA-6B, F/A-18 and AV-8B. Until the company receives "specific guidance from our defense and government customers … we will continue on the course we have been following for sometime as we anticipated defense cuts even before sequestration became the concern," said Clendenin. "Boeing continues to invest heavily in R&D in spite of DoD budget constraints; we are not hunkering down."
This guarded but positive outlook is shared by many in the industry. "Although overall spending will be reduced, we still see opportunities in niche sections of the military market," said Barry Beasley, assistant director of the Avionics Business Unit at Plainview, N.Y.-based Aeroflex Test Solutions.
The broader effects of tighter budgets, however, do underscore the complexity of the tasks these standardized test systems take on. "Any budget-constrained environment encourages the services to think closely about the 'sustain versus procure' decision," said H. Byron Green, senior director test and electronic warfare at AAI Test & Training. The company provides the Joint Services Electronic Combat System Tester (JSECST) program, an ATS that offers end-to-end testing capability to Navy and Air Force customers. The standardized testers must be able to handle not only the latest technology but also older systems on legacy platforms that have continued to operate beyond their expected operational lifetime under service life extension programs (SLEP). Last year, for example, the Air Force announced plans to upgrade and extend the service life of more than 300 F-16s and the Navy did the same for 150 F/A-18s, due mainly to delays in deliveries of F-35s.
"The services generally understand and embrace the advantages of extension programs in terms of affordability and capability; with the same footprint and a modest investment, equipment can be maintained for even decades of additional service," said Green. SLEPs also can provide "improved performance" and add "new capabilities" to the aircraft to help "mitigate costly issues associated with obsolescence," he said.
As platforms are upgraded, "obviously the test equipment needs to be upgraded as well … to accommodate or be able to test the newer systems," said Mike Pefley, director, business development, Land and Self Protection Systems Division at Northrop Grumman. "These newer systems are tending toward (use of) some of the (newer) interface standards" such as PXI and VXI, he said. Those standards simplify the task "because when you have standard then it just makes it more straightforward" with less need for customization.
As they develop new automatic test equipment for the systems or subsystems, technology providers are accounting for the need to support legacy and new systems along with customer demands for greater efficiency and flexibility. "We continue to see emphasis on multi-function capability, (such as) combined instrumentation and software-reconfigurable systems," said Green. For example, "the radio frequency sources we have supplied for our major U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force programs offer 'forward/backward' capability external and embedded modulation enables compatibility with both legacy and future systems." The company is also working on several new electronic warfare products, Green said. Priorities include "systems that provide full electromagnetic environment simulation, 'forward/backward' system support, integrated frequency and time domain analysis, and consolidated support across all radio frequency sources."
"Customers are (also) demanding more compact test systems with lower cost of ownership; there is a general move away from 'rack-and-stack' solutions, which have a higher cost of ownership," said Beasley. For example, Aeroflex offers its IFF-7300S, which supports IFF Transponders/Interrogators and TACAN Interrogators and can be customized to meet individual under test requirements, he said.
In addition, the company is "continuing to add new capability to the RF Expansion Module for the Cassidian ATEC Series 6 (ATE)," Beasley said. "This is a new platform for us, so there is a lot of focus on growing our offered TPS library; we have several TPS developments currently in process with numerous in the planning stages," he said. "The ATEC series 6 provides test coverage for every major airborne avionics equipment manufacturer on the Airbus, Boeing and ATR aircraft as well as numerous military aircraft," according the systems manufacturer, Cassidian, an EADS subsidiary.
"In the area of Flight Line test equipment we see little difference between testing older, upgraded military platforms compared with new military platforms," said Beasley. Addressing older systems, "we have standard support commitment period after a product reaches the end of its production life," he said, adding "we are still supporting … some test instruments that are 25 + years old." However, "a continuously reducing pool of vendors for legacy components and general component obsolescence creates an ongoing support challenge, which is the situation of every manufacturer in the aviation industry."
When it comes to developing or expanding automatic test systems, a key solution for integrating legacy test equipment is TPS transport or migration technology that allow for "moving TPSs from one platform to another without changing the TPS hardware or software," said Clendenin. Currently several ATE programs are capitalizing on this technology to boost cost savings by "extending the useful life and reducing development costs of TPSs," he said. This year, Boeing and the U.S. Navy successfully completed the transport of more than 650 TPSs from the legacy CASS to RTCASS for use by the Marine Corps in support of F/A-18C/D Hornets, H-1 Cobras, AV-8B Harriers, E/A-6B Prowlers and MV/CV-22 Ospreys.
In 2012, the U.S. Navy contracted with Boeing to develop the RTCASS depot for the North Island Fleet Readiness Center. "This new variant of RTCASS will incorporate new technologies to enable testing of shop repairable assemblies and reduce TPS development costs," said Clendenin. The system, to be delivered in 2014, will allow for "the use of Test Stand and Lab Windows CVI for TPS software development and (include) new capabilities in … digital testing, analog testing, as well as a new control computer," he said.
Boeing is also "continuing to expand development and deployment of toolsets designed to collect, process and share information with the operations and maintenance communities," said Clendenin. "These toolsets facilitate secure communications and data exchanges as well to enhance various elements of health management, both on and off-weapons system," he said. "Within the past year we have started to incorporate our net-centric toolset into the DoD's next generation of operations management software; this effort is leveraging the DoD's existing network security infrastructure to ensure secure cross-domain data exchange."
Last year, Northrop Grumman, along with DRS Systems, delivered eight Next Generation Automatic Test Systems under a low rate initial production contract with the Army. NGATS is slated to replace the service's legacy integrated family of test equipment (IFTE) and Direct Support Electronic Systems Test Set (DSEST), said Pefley. This ATS adds new capabilities and has a smaller footprint than the legacy systems and is a reconfigurable, modular solution that offers VXI instrumentation for flexibility and rapid insertion of future technologies, according to Northrop Grumman. Over the next few years, NGATS "will be capable of assuming all current and projected ATS missions," according to the DoD Automatic Test Systems Executive Directorate. Under current plans, the ATS capabilities will be deployed gradually via a spiral development process allowing for "the planned incremental replacement of aging ATS experiencing increasing obsolescence issues."
Currently, the eight LRIP systems along another eight delivered during the test phase of the program "are in trials and in use and with the Army," said Pefley, adding "at this point we are preparing for the full rate production phase of the program." The service is expected to issue a RFP this year for full rate production of about 42. "We look forward to that competition and feel like we are very well positioned to participate and support the Army," he said.
To this point, automatic testers are not generally being used for the systems on unmanned aerial systems (UAS). However, "the replacement value of all unmanned aircraft has increased," said Green. "I expect this trend to continue as even more powerful and complex payloads, communications and other subsystems are integrated in all UAS classes," said Green. "As cost, complexity and miniaturization continue to increase, so does the need for robust test capabilities."
In some cases, testers are already being used to maintain those sensors that are common to both unmanned and manned systems, added Pefley.
New standards, such as Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE), crafted by government and industry "will help reduce the cost of new systems and their associated tests, but the legacy systems will still be in use for many years," said Clendenin. "We believe that the implementation of FACE will present a challenge in order to integrate these new technologies while maintaining compatibility with legacy systems." Meanwhile, "the DoD has been studying the concept of a new common development environment for test that may replace legacy approaches," said Clendenin. "This future environment would be based on a common test executive and enable use of multiple runtimes, common TPS procedures, and standardized tool sets for graphics and test diagrams."
Looking forward, the DoD Automatic Test Systems Executive Directorate said last year new ATSs may be added to the DoD inventory of ATS families if they meet the following criteria:
➤ The tester must be capable of supporting multiple weapon system test requirements and there must be planning in place for implementation as such,
➤ The tester must have flexible hardware and software architectures which are expandable and tailorable with minimal impact to existing logistic support profiles and TPSs,
➤ The tester must provide a capability to satisfy a Service performance or operational requirement that cannot be accommodated within the existing DoD ATS family structure,
➤ The tester must provide a more cost effective/beneficial ATS solution than use or modification of an existing DoD family member, and
➤ The tester must be re-procurable and must have a dedicated government management office that has a process in place to ensure long term tester viability is maintained; and the tester will evolve to satisfy future support requirements.

Avionics Magazine's Product Focus is a monthly feature that examines some of the latest trends in different market segments of the avionics industry. It does not represent a comprehensive survey of all companies and products in these markets. Product Focus Editor Ed McKenna can be contacted at firstname.lastname@example.com.
While cuts in U.S. defense spending are causing angst in much of the aerospace industry, Steve Sargeant, CEO of Marvin Test Solutions, sees opportunity there.
Since the Department of Defense cannot afford to replace many of its aging aircraft, it is upgrading them with smart weapons and other technology so they remain relevant in modern warfare and can stay in service far longer than expected, which will create a need for reliable and robust test equipment systems.
Marvin Test Solutions, formerly Geotest-Marvin Test Solutions, builds test equipment for legacy as well as new aircraft. In an interview with Avionics, Sargeant explains how Martin is well positioned for today's austere fiscal environment.
Question: What are some trends that you're seeing in the aerospace test equipment market? How is your company responding to those trends?
Answer: Our customers have to sustain legacy aircraft longer into the future. In many cases, those legacy aircraft were upgraded over the last few years. For example, smart weapons were added to the A-10. But the test equipment didn't change, and so today, in the case of the A-10, they find themselves without any smart weapons test equipment on the flight line. The A-10 is operating with test equipment that was fielded many decades ago, and the aircraft has so much more capability that can't be trouble shot, that can't be maintained on the flight line.
So the opportunity that we see is now going to the Air Force and presenting a technology that increases the capabilities while at the same time decreasing the footprint on the flight line. We don't want them to discover they have a problem after they've loaded up a 2,000-pound weapon onto the aircraft. It'd be great to know beforehand if there's any troubleshooting to be done.
Q: Do you see opportunities in unmanned aircraft systems?
A: Unmanned aerial systems is a very exciting market. I think it'll be a growing market in the future, both in defense and civil and commercial, and probably in that order. There are opportunities today for the use of test equipment on the UASs that are being deployed to ensure that the armament and ammunitions are working properly before those UASs launch on their missions.
We are working closely with the manufacturers of UASs today and the users to see if they're interested in this type of support equipment, and we think they're. And we're making our systems available to them and knowledge of our systems widespread.
For future systems, if those systems are going to be using armament to enable carriage of sensors, etc., and the sensor packages themselves, they also provide opportunities for test systems, test solutions to be employed. So we're keeping a close eye on that market, and its not a passive eye, it's a very active eye, we engage with the manufacturers and the users daily and will continue to do that.
Q: What does the next 12 to 18 months look like for your company?
A: We're on a growth path right now, and despite sequestration and the doom and gloom that folks see from other sectors of our industry, we see opportunities there, and we see great reception from our customers because of the solutions we can bring them to help solve their problems of long term sustainment, while at the same time they're facing bringing on new fifth-generation systems like the F-35, we're able to help at both ends of the spectrum. So we're actually growing because of some of the people that we're actually bringing on and some of the projects that we're winning.
We look forward to continuing winning more and continuing our growth. —Woodrow Bellamy III

The Knicks gave a spirited effort tonight but they are not yet ready for Prime Time. The Heat pulled away in the third quarter and Jeremy Lin had his toughest game since becoming a starter as the Knicks lost in Miami. A good loss in a way. Shows the Knicks how far they need to go in order to compete with the best.

Hold it right there. Take off the sweatshirt.
How do you know when your elections workers are on high alert? When they flinch at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
According to Alton Dillard, a spokesman for the Denver Clerk and Recorder's office, a veteran poll worker waved a distress flag and called for a supervisor when she spotted a young woman in the lobby of the Denver Elections Division wearing what she believed was a sweatshirt violating the state's electioneering law.
The garment bore the letters "MIT."
The state's electioneering law forbids anyone from attempting to express support for or against a candidate or issue within 100 feet of a polling place. That inludes signs, buttons and yes, T-shirts and other clothing.
"I was in the area, saw the shirt and assured the worker that there was only one 'T,' so the voter was not electioneering," Dillard said.
No word on whether the woman was carrying a catcher's mitt or had rum on her knee.

An impressively large number of politicians, opinion makers, scholars, bureaucrats, and ordinary people hold that terrorism -- and al Qaeda in particular -- poses an existential threat to the United States. This alarming characterization, which was commonly employed by members of the George W. Bush administration, has also been used by some Obama advisers, including the counterterrorism specialist Bruce Riedel. Some officials, such as former U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff, have parsed the concept further, declaring the struggle against terrorism to be a "significant existential" one.
Over the last several decades, academics, policymakers, and regulators worldwide have developed risk-assessment techniques to evaluate hazards to human life, such as pesticide use, pollution, and nuclear power plants. In the process, they have reached a substantial consensus about which risks are acceptable and which are unacceptable. When these techniques are applied to terrorism, it becomes clear that terrorism is far from an existential threat. Instead, it presents an acceptable risk, one so low that spending to further reduce its likelihood or consequences is scarcely justified.
An unacceptable risk is often called de manifestis, meaning of obvious or evident concern -- a risk so high that no "reasonable person" would deem it acceptable. A widely cited de manifestis risk assessment comes from a 1980 United States Supreme Court decision regarding workers' risk from inhaling gasoline vapors. It concluded that an annual fatality risk -- the chance per year that a worker would die of inhalation -- of 1 in 40,000 is unacceptable. This is in line with standard practice in the regulatory world. Typically, risks considered unacceptable are those found likely to kill more than 1 in 10,000 or 1 in 100,000 per year.
At the other end of the spectrum are risks that are considered acceptable, and there is a fair degree of agreement about that area of risk as well. For example, after extensive research and public consultation, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission decided in 1986 that the fatality risk posed by accidents at nuclear power plants

Most kids plug into the world of television long before they enter school. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF):
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that kids under 2 years old not watch any TV and that those older than 2 watch no more than 1 to 2 hours a day of quality programming.
The first 2 years of life are considered a critical time for brain development. TV and other electronic media can get in the way of exploring, playing, and interacting with parents and others, which encourages learning and healthy physical and social development.
As kids get older, too much screen time can interfere with activities such as being physically active, reading, doing homework, playing with friends, and spending time with family.
Of course, TV in moderation can be a good thing: Preschoolers can get help learning the alphabet on public television, grade schoolers can learn about wildlife on nature shows, and parents can keep up with current events on the evening news. No doubt about it — TV can be an excellent educator and entertainer.
Still, too much TV can be a bad thing:
Children's advocates are divided when it comes to solutions. Although many urge for more hours per week of educational programming, others assert that zero TV is the best solution. And some say it's better for parents to control the use of TV and to teach kids that it's for occasional entertainment, not for constant escapism.
That's why it's so important for you to monitor the content of TV programming and set viewing limits to ensure that your kids don't spend too much time parked in front of the TV.
To give you perspective on just how much violence kids see on TV, consider this: The average American child will witness 200,000 violent acts on television by age 18. Kids may become desensitized to violence and more aggressive. TV violence sometimes begs for imitation because violence is often promoted as a fun and effective way to get what you want.
Many violent acts are perpetrated by the "good guys," whom kids have been taught to admire. Even though kids are taught by their parents that it's not right to hit, television says it's OK to bite, hit, or kick if you're the good guy. This can lead to confusion when kids try to understand the difference between right and wrong. And the "bad guys" on TV aren't always held responsible or punished for their actions.
Young kids are particularly frightened by scary and violent images. Simply telling kids that those images aren't real won't console them, because they can't yet tell the difference between fantasy and reality. Behavior problems, nightmares, and difficulty sleeping may follow exposure to media violence.
Older kids also can be frightened by violent images, whether they appear on fictional shows, the news, or reality-based shows. Reasoning with kids this age will help them, so it's important to provide reassuring and honest information to help ease fears. However, consider not letting your kids view programs that they may find frightening.
TV is full of programs and commercials that depict risky behaviors (such as drinking alcohol, doing drugs, smoking cigarettes, and having premarital sex) as cool, fun, and exciting. And often, there's no discussion about the consequences of those actions.
For example, studies have shown that teens who watch lots of sexual content on TV are more likely to initiate intercourse or participate in other sexual activities earlier than peers who don't watch sexually explicit shows.
Alcohol ads on TV have actually increased over the last few years and more underage kids are being exposed to them than ever. A recent study by the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth (CAMY) found that youth exposure to alcohol ads on TV increased by 30% from 2001 to 2006.
Cigarette ads are banned on television, but kids and teens can still see plenty of people smoking on programs and movies airing on TV. This kind of "product placement" makes behaviors like smoking and drinking alcohol seem acceptable. In fact, kids who watch 5 or more hours of TV per day are far more likely to begin smoking cigarettes than those who watch less than the recommended 2 hours a day.
Health experts have long linked excessive TV-watching to obesity — a significant health problem today. While watching TV, kids are inactive and tend to snack. They're also bombarded with ads that encourage them to eat unhealthy foods like potato chips and empty-calorie soft drinks that often become preferred snack foods.
Studies have shown that decreasing the amount of TV kids watched led to less weight gain and lower body mass index (BMI).
According to the AAP, kids in the United States see 40,000 commercials each year. From the junk food and toy ads during Saturday morning cartoons to the appealing promos on the backs of cereal boxes, marketing messages are all around kids. And to them, everything looks ideal — like something they simply have to have. It all sounds so appealing — often, so much better than it really is.
Most kids under the age of 8 don't understand that commercials are for selling a product. Children 6 years and under can't distinguish program content from ads, especially if their favorite character is promoting the product. Even older kids may need to be reminded of the purpose of advertising.
Of course, it's nearly impossible to eliminate all exposure to marketing messages. You can turn off the TV or at least limit kids' watching time, but they'll still see and hear plenty of ads for the latest gizmos and must-haves.
So what you can do? Teach kids to be savvy consumers by talking about the products advertised on TV. Ask thought-provoking questions like, "What do you like about that?," "Do you think it's really as good as it looks in that ad?," and "Do you think that's a healthy choice?"
When your kids ask for products advertised, explain that commercials and other ads are designed to make people want things they don't necessarily need. And these ads are often meant to make us think that these products will make us happier somehow. Talking to kids about what things are like in reality can help put things into perspective.
To limit kids' exposure to TV commercials, the AAP recommends that parents:
Two ways you can help monitor what your kids watch are:
For many, the rating system and V-chip may be valuable tools. But there is some concern that the system may be worse than no system at all. For example, research shows that preteen and teen boys are more likely to want to see a program if it's rated MA (mature audience) than if it's PG (parental guidance suggested). And parents may rely too heavily on these tools and stop monitoring what their kids are watching.
Also, broadcast news, sports, and commercials aren't rated, although they often include depictions of violence and sexuality. The rating system also doesn't satisfy some family advocates who complain that they fail to give enough information about a program's content to allow parents to make informed decisions about whether a show is appropriate for their kids.
So even if you've used the V-chip to program your TV or a show features the age-group ratings, it's still important to preview shows to see whether they're OK for your kids — and to turn off the TV if they're not.
Here are some practical ways to make TV-viewing more productive in your home:

Hope you are all having a fabulous Friday. I can't believe that tomorrow is the first day of December, wow how the year has flown by. Today I have a holiday card to share that's bursting with cheerfulness. :) This card uses lots of new goodies and a technique from one of the online card classes.
So the technique I used is combination of trapped embossed resist and kissing technique. Basically I inked up the starburst background stamp with versamark and the snow dots background stamp with soft granite then kissed the two stamps together transferring the snow dots pattern to the starburst stamp. I then stamped the starburst stamp onto my card stock and embossed the versamark ink with clear embossing powder, trapping the dots underneath. I then applied evergreen bough distress ink around the outside and some iced spruce distress ink at the center where the rays come together. I also gave the point where the rays converge a little spray of perfect pearls pearl mist for a burst of shimmer behind my tree.
Thanks for stopping by!

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (Blugolds.com) — The UW-Eau Claire men's hockey team will get the rematch they wanted with St. Norbert College after falling to them in the Northern Collegiate Hockey Association championship this past Saturday at Hobbs Ice Center.
In order to get that rematch though, they had to take care of Saint John's (Minn.) in the first round of the NCAA tournament. It was the Blugolds' (21-5-2) first NCAA appearance since 1989 and the first time they have ever hosted a tournament game.
The Johnnies (16-8-4) made the Blugolds sweat it out, taking the early lead, but a barrage of goals in the second period helped the Blugolds edge out a 4-2 win in front of 1,341 people at Hobbs Ice Center.
"That game could've went either way," Blugold coach Matt Loen said. "If we don't get a couple goals there, it's a different game."
With another rocking crowd, the Johnnies made sure to quiet the fans and keep them from getting in the game early on. At 7:33, Michael Palmiscno buried a one-timer on a pass from behind the net over the shoulder of Brandon Stephenson (Sr.-Saline, Mich./Saline) for the 1-0 lead.
At 11:03, the Johnnies went on the power-play and had a chance to break the game open. But just over a minute later, Saint John's took a penalty of their own. Just 47 second later, the Johnnies took another penalty, giving the Blugolds about a minute of 5-on-3.
Kurt Weston (Sr.-Roseau, Minn./Roseau) made them pay, putting home a one-timer from the left face-off circle on a pass from Jack Callahan (So.-Red Bank, NJ/Christian Brothers Academy). David Donnellan (Jr.-Eau Claire, Wis./Memorial) also added an assist on the goal.
Neither team was able to break through for the rest of the first period, or the beginning of the second. But at 11:14, Saint John's started the scoring barrage. The Johnnies took the 2-1 lead on a scrum in front of the net, with Stephenson battling to find the puck.
But just 1 minute, 17 seconds later, Devin Mantha (Sr.-Sturgeon Falls, Ontario/Ann Arbor Pioneer) scored on a shot that seemed to fool Johnnies goalie, Saxton Soley.
One minute and 51 seconds later, Isaiah Bennis (Sr.-Eau Claire, Wis./Memorial) scored on a deflection off a shot from Chris Heineman (So.-New Boston, Mich./Traverse City Central).
And just 1 minute 20 seconds after that, Weston scored his second goal of the night, providing the dagger for the Blugolds.
"Hats off to Saint John's, they're definitely a different team than we saw in January," Loen said. "Fortunately for us we came out with a win."
The Blugolds went into a defense-first style of play in the third period and were able to hold the Johnnies off the board. But it did take some big saves from Stephenson throughout the period to maintain that two goal lead.
"I thought Brandon (Stephenson) played well, obviously," Loen said. "He just gives us that backbone of our team and he's always there to make the saves."
Stephenson finished the game with 25 saves, while Soley made 29 saves for the Johnnies. UW-Eau Claire was 1-for-4 on the man-advantage, while Saint John's finished 0-for-3.
Now the Blugolds will travel to De Pere for a rematch with the Green Knights in the quarterfinal round of the NCAA tournament. The Blugolds are 2-1-1 against St. Norbert College this season and were 1-0-1 at Cornerstone Community Center.
"We're looking forward to going to Cornerstone because it's obviously a fun place to play," Loen said. "There's no pressure on us. They're No. 1 in the country, they're sitting at home waiting for us."
Looking to mix things up a bit, the Blugolds wore the road blue helmets with the home white jerseys against the Johnnies. It was the first time this season they wore the blue helmets at home. According to Loen, it's something the team took upon themselves.
"That's the leadership we have," Loen said. "I let them run the room. They didn't even tell me about it … that's the great part of our team."
The fifth and final matchup with St. Norbert College will be Saturday at 7 p.m. in De Pere at Cornerstone. The winner will advance to the semi-finals in Lake Placid, NY to try and battle for the national championship.

RICHMOND, Va. – Head Coach Shaka Smart did not have to look far to fill the role of video coordinator on his coaching staff for the upcoming 2011-12 campaign.
Smart announced the hiring of Donny Lind, a graduate manager with last year's Final Four team, to fill the role for the Black & Gold.
"We're very excited about adding Donny as a full-time member of our staff," Smart said. "He's an extremely hard worker who possesses a great mind for the game."
Lind, who is working on finishing up his Master's Degree through VCU's Center for Sport Leadership, came to VCU after earning his Bachelor's Degree in Economics from Loyola University Maryland in 2010.
The New Knoxville, Ohio native spent the 2010-11 season as the right-hand man to Video Coordinator Matt Fleming, who is now serving in the same role at DePaul University.
During Lind's time at Loyola, he served as a student manager for the men's basketball team. His final two years with the Greyhounds, he spent in the Video Coordinator role for the program.
Lind currently resides in Richmond with his wife, Ciara, and newborn daughter, Magnolia Grace.

Earlier this week I had a requirement for displaying an XSD DataSet schema in my application to the end-user. I couldn't find a free or relatively cheap component. All the items I came across were either too bulky (loads of functionality) or pricey. I was also looking for something along the lines of a user-control which I could drop on a form and wire-up. I decided to roll my own…after an hour I came up with this
I used Open Diagram engine…pretty much straight forward.
To keep things simple I didn't mess with the XSD schema via XML. I just loaded the schema into a dataset object and pass it to the control I created
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
XsdExplorer1.SetDataSet = ds;
When I have some time I'll add a property grid and probably use docking windows…and "Foreign-Key" references on the diagram. This was just a quick solution.

Remodeling Corporate Culture for the Digital Era
Jun 16, 2012 5:00 AM PT
While the Millennial generation hoards the headlines that declare the latest trends in technology and their applications to the workplace, it's worth remembering that it was the Baby Boomers who put the "e" in email, e-learning and e-commerce. The foundations of the Digital Era that forever changed the way we work, shop, learn and play were built by innovators born from the mid-1940s through the 1950s.
The past half century has been a period of building great businesses founded on technology- driven processes that run by the clock and the calendar. In the new millennium, however, technology has been redefined -- as has the employee. It's no coincidence that employees entering the workforce today wear no wristwatch and carry no calendar in their wallet.
As the great entrepreneurs of the Boomer generation flock to retirement resorts, the great innovators of Gen Y move into their positions, a joyously different breed of human being in a corporate landscape where Millennials seem strange to management and managers seem hopelessly antiquated to their new employees.
Many organizations traditionally have tracked progress and success in terms of hours billed, rates charged, quantities delivered or facilities expanded. Millennials, on the other hand, can't grasp the concept of a "clock watcher." For the most part, they do not distinguish between work hours and personal hours -- it's all one life for Millennials.
Always On
That's because they carry the digital devices they use at home into their work. Their preference is to work whenever and wherever they are most productive, and technology has allowed them to succeed in that pursuit, with handheld devices that place an office full of capabilities in their pocket. The BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) phenomenon is creating security headaches for IT staff, but it's helping 21st century companies experience their own boom.
Millennials shun museum pieces like land lines, conference room calendars, time sheets and "The 6:00 News." Rather, they thrive on instant messaging, Skype and Kinect, social networks and texts. More than any previous generation, they are totally comfortable with talking to strangers and colleagues half a world away -- they probably already are friends on Facebook or followers on Twitter.
Social networks, furthermore, provide a communications path for a generation who could care less about privacy issues and readily declare and share every aspect of their lives, from breakfast to business proposals.
"Communicating" is not a function or activity for Millennials -- it's an environment. It's just always present, always available, and always necessary. These workers may never have heard a dial tone. They grew up with a mobile phone on their belt and at their ear.
These are the students who drove English teachers nuts with insertions like "IMHO" and "LOL" throughout their compositions. They are the first generation in a century not to plead with parents to take them to the Department of Motor Vehicles on their 16th birthday -- and to buy them a car, as well. These young adults live the majority of their lives in the virtual world, and they don't need to drive to stores, to movie theaters or even to schools. It's all "e- vailable" to them on that device in their pocket.
The desire for constant connection among the Millennial workforce, however, is exactly the characteristic most valuable for businesses that operate globally. Having a workforce that delights in instantaneous communication, that is always on and always reaching out to new social contacts, can furnish a tremendous competitive advantage to businesses today. Smart businesses, therefore, are placing a priority on ways to attract these upcoming, technology-driven workers, as well as ways to modify the corporate culture to help ensure that they stay.
Different Motivations, Different Rewards
Overriding these efforts of business managers should be three considerations that may require dramatically new ways of defining work ethic and work processes:
- Finding ways for employees to engage with the company will become paramount. Research studies reveal that when employees are engaged, businesses experience better customer service, more product innovation and improved productivity. When businesses measure engagement and determine how best to improve that measure, managers are better able to ensure that every worker understands and is focused on his or her value to the overriding goals of the company. Engagement helps drive employees toward corporate objectives because they become a challenge to be met with technology.
- Managers and supervisors need to accept that the activities and rewards that motivate Millennials are different from the motivations of past generations. Above all, Millennials need effective communication methods and a corporate culture that values them for their expertise, rather than for compliance with traditional processes. Employers should encourage Millennials to bring their own devices to work -- and then collaborate with the IT department to accommodate them. Employees could be rewarded for posting to Facebook and Twitter and using those networks for collaboration among offices and globally. The corporate culture may need to be flipped to reward risk-taking instead of safety. Many offices in progressive companies today look more like a coffeehouse or a campus union than a cube farm; Gen Y employees prefer to work wherever they want in a manner that is both casual and collaborative.
- Accountability still matters, but the way we measure it needs to change. Handing out certificates for perfect on-time attendance needs to yield to rewarding perfect online projects. Productivity may need to be measured by the output of digital endeavors instead of the hours recorded on a timesheet.
Organizations can find help in reshaping their corporate culture and work processes from consulting firms that have studied operational efficiency in workplaces with generational differences. These firms have created programs to make the transition easier and more effective. Most important for the manager, however, is the need simply to realize that the world has changed. It's time to auction the bulletin boards and notepads on eBay and prepare our businesses for a digital workforce and a different way of managing our business.

Jenny McCarthy had big news to share Wednesday on "The View": She's engaged to Donnie Wahlberg.
McCarthy raised her hidden left hand from behind the desk, revealing an engagement ring.
"It's a yellow sapphire," she said. "The View" co-host told how Wahlberg, star of CBS' "Blue Bloods" and a member of New Kids on the Block, proposed to her last weekend. She said her son, Evan, helped with the proposal.

Stories that affect your life across the U.S. and around the world.
Wahlberg, 44, then came on the set of the ABC show and hugged and kissed his fiancee.
"I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. He's so wonderful," McCarthy, 41, said.
This will be the second marriage for both.
McCarthy will be joined by all her current and former "View" co-hosts on May 15 to salute outgoing show creator Barbara Walters. Walters recently announced her exit from the long-running daytime chat fest.
ABC said Wednesday the first-ever reunion will feature Meredith Vieira, Star Jones, Joy Behar, Sherri Shepherd, Jenny McCarthy and Whoopi Goldberg, among others. The special episode will air the day before Walters says goodbye as series co-host.

A hogshead is a large barrel used primarily to store and/or transport tightly packed, or "prized," leaf tobacco. By the mid-1700s, tradition, convenience, and statutes to discourage smuggling ultimately required tobacco to be shipped in a hogshead rather than by bulk. Hogsheads were transported by water and land, and they often were rolled a mile or more by hand from the plantation to the wharf. So-called tobacco rollers would haul a hogshead to market with the aid of one or two horses.
Over time, loose-leaf tobacco warehouse auction sales replaced the traditional method of selling tobacco in a hogshead. Loose-leaf sales allowed buyers to examine the entire bulk of the tobacco they were bidding for, while those buying by the hogshead could only examine a small sample. Prizing leaf into hogsheads was a way to help protect it during shipping and to economize on shipping space. However, the prizing damaged the leaf, and a planter in the 1870s could get more money for tobacco that was wrapper quality (leaves that were used to wrap tobacco plugs).
The hogshead is no longer the standard means of tobacco shipping or marketing but is chiefly used by manufacturers for storage during the curing process. A uniform size for the hogshead was never successfully established in colonial times or afterward; consequently, its changing size has remained a source of frustration for researchers trying to determine tobacco statistics from colonial and nineteenth-century North Carolina.

"Homeless" DU hockey team picked third in its final season in the WCHA; Air Force top pick in AHA
Because of next Tuesday's presidential debate at Magness Arena, DU has evacuated its Murray Armstrong Hockey Complex (locker room, lounge, etc.) and is practicing at Joy Burns Arena on the Pioneers' campus and using the Avalanche facility at Family Sports Center in Centennial.
The Secret Service owns Magness Arena right now, and will continue to do so until after the Pioneers' Oct. 6 exhibition game against British Columbia at the Pepsi Center.
Meanwhile, the rebuilding Pioneers were picked to finish third by the media in the final year of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association as we know it.

What movie is this?
Stop Loss?
YES good work Anon :)
"If not my favorite of that year - and it may be - it's at a minimum in the top 3 or so. And Jake should absolutely have been up for the Oscar that year, and maybe won (although I'd have been good with Keaton). While it has a look or style that relates to an older Los Angeles, the heart of it is as timely as can be, sadly."--- For its 5th anniversary I gave some love to Dan Gilroy's film Nightcrawler for besides being awesome also seeing our awful present in advance, and here reader Scott agrees.

Commitment to Our Communities
ICMA-RC's mission is to help public sector employees build retirement security. Founded in 1972, ICMA-RC is a non-profit independent financial services corporation based in Washington, D.C., focused on providing retirement plans and related services for more than one million public sector participant accounts and more than 9,000 retirement plans. Our associates are dedicated every day to our mission and serving those who serve our communities.
ICMA-RC partners with a number of public sector focused organizations which include: the Local Government Hispanic Network, National Forum for Black Public Administrators, International City/County Management Association, National Association of Government Defined Contribution Administrators, Government Finance Officers Association, National League of Cities, and the National Association of County Administrators.
In addition, ICMA-RC partners with Capital Area Asset Builders (CAAB) to assist in providing financial education to underserved public sector employees in the Greater DC area. Through its financial and consumer education programs, research, and advocacy, CAAB is working to ensure that all residents in the Greater DC area have opportunities to save and invest in their dreams.
In 2001, ICMA-RC founded the ICMA-RC Public Employee Memorial Scholarship Fund (ICMA-RC Memorial Scholarship Fund) to honor local and state government employees who lost their lives in service to their communities. To date, the ICMA-RC Memorial Scholarship Fund has raised over $1.3 million and awarded more than 300 scholarships to surviving children and spouses of fallen public sector employees from across the nation.
In 2007, ICMA-RC established the Center for State and Local Government Excellence, created as a resource to local and state governments as they attract and nurture the best workforce. The Center is a non-partisan, non-profit organization considered a premier resource for research on workforce trends, compensation, pensions, health care, and retirement for state and local leaders, and highlights promising practices and innovations through forums, webinars, and outreach.
In 2015 and 2017, we joined in honoring and celebrating with public safety officials from around the globe as the Official Retirement Plan Services Provider for the World Police & Fire Games, an Olympic-style event attended by more than 10,000 first responder athletes.
ICMA-RC has also been a sponsor of the National Police Week 5K hosted by the Officer Down Memorial Page for five years running. ICMA-RC employees join with 2,000 other runners and walkers in Washington D.C. to run and remember the 23,000+ fallen officers who have given their lives in the line of duty in U.S. history.
ICMA-RC and its more than 800 associates consistently give their time and resources to communities throughout the country. As part of that commitment, we have long-term partnerships with philanthropies where our headquarters is located in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area such as So Others Might Eat (SOME) and Habitat for Humanity. Since 2005, ICMA-RC associates have selflessly volunteered more than 1,000 hours to serve breakfast and lunch in the SOME dining room at 71 "O" Street, NW, and to assist Habitat for Humanity in building homes in Montgomery County, MD.
Doing good and doing well is a key tenet of ICMA-RC's focus, and our associate volunteers know that focusing on community service is one of the most rewarding and fulfilling activities we do as corporate citizens.

A Letter
Jirí Pelikán, aged forty-nine, was a leading figure in the "Prague Spring." As director of Czechoslovak TV he encouraged an unprecedented policy of freedom of information. He was also chairman of the foreign affairs commission of the Parliament, and during the secret Fourteenth Congress of the Czechoslovak Communist Party held in a Prague factory a few hours after the Soviet invasion, in August, 1968, was elected to the Central Committee. He took part in the anti-Nazi resistance, and was a member of the Communist Party from 1939 to his expulsion in 1969. He has since been living abroad. In Prague he is considered one of the main spokesmen of the opposition of the Husák Regime.
Dear Angela Davis,
You will perhaps be surprised that a Czechoslovak political exile should feel the need to write to you. You must have had many messages from Czechoslovakia, but you missed those from the people who would have liked to express their solidarity but could not do so because their voices are stifled, because they are in prison, condemned or awaiting trial.
I am sending you this letter in their names. I can speak and write because I have chosen, like many of my compatriots, to continue the struggle in exile.
But I'm also writing to you because, in spite of our different experiences, we have a lot in common and I think that you will understand me. You say that you became a communist because after seeing the people suffer you understood that society must be changed. So did I. I joined the Communist Party in September, 1939. I was a student and I had seen my country occupied by the German Nazis. I wanted to fight for freedom and to change a system which produces wars and oppression.
You have lived through the painful experience of prison. So have I. While the Gestapo hunted me, my parents were taken as hostages: and my mother never came back from prison. I know as well as you what is meant by repression, discrimination, and suffering. Like you, I went into the revolutionary movement convinced that socialism can create a more just society for the majority of men.
The difference between us consists only in the fact that after thirty years as a militant, in October, 1969, I was expelled from the party along with some half million Czech and Slovak communists simply because we refused to consider the occupation of our small socialist country by a foreign power, itself "socialist," as "fraternal aid."
You may say that there is a big difference between American military aggression in Vietnam and the Soviet intervention in Czechoslovakia. I agree, and that is why our people did not defend itself in arms. But the substance of the two interventions is the same: to prevent people from deciding their own destiny. You are for the immediate withdrawal of American troops from Vietnam. So am I. But why, four years after the intervention, are there still 80,000 Soviet soldiers…

There's no time difference in Abuja so as soon as you land you'll fall in with the city's easy-going rhythm.
From€620 returnBook
Planned and built from scratch for the very purpose of becoming Nigeria's 'new' capital and seat of political power, Abuja is a far cry from its chaotic predecessor, Lagos – it boasts an excellent road network (with unusually strict driving laws) and modern infrastructure.
At the heart of the city's governmental district rises, somewhat symbolically, an impressive 400-metre-high rock known as Aso Rock. It sets the tone for a city that is most noted for its beautiful surrounds. Flights to Abuja take you to a tree-filled city with a number of peaceful green spaces and attractive parks, the largest of which, Millennium Park, was designed by world-renowned architect Manfredi Nicoletti. Throw in ample shopping opportunities (new malls include Silverbird Galleria and Ceddi Plaza) and exciting nightlife, and it's not hard to see why Abuja is worth exploring.
Find a British Airways flight for less, we'll refund the difference.
Low price finder and low initial deposits.
Fly with British Airways and enjoy award-winning service and excellent value for money.

MSP Presents Contour Moments Episodes 1-8
Filmed 100% with CONTOUR! These videos provide a great tease of what you can expect to see from MSP in Fall 2012 when their 20th annual ski film releases on DVD, Blu-ray, iTunes, and - of course - on a big screen near you.
Episode 1: Chatter Creek
MSP's film crew discovers abundant early season snowfall during a trip to Chatter Creek, BC with Mark Abma, James Heim, and newcomer Leo Ahrens. Plenty of epic skiing was had during a nine-day period that Heimer referred to as 'the deepest trip of my life'. All three skiers got their share of shredding in, not to be outdone by the resident lodge-dog who was quick to join in for some laps.
Music Artist: Phreewill
Title: Tetractysted
Episode 2: Japan
The MSP film crew along with athletes Sean Pettit, Richard Permin, and Riley Leboe take you to the island of Hokkaido, Japan. "We didn't see the sun very much" says Permin after spending 14 days in a blizzard. The crew hit up surrounding resorts and backcountry shredding some of the deepest and lightest snow Japan has to offer.
Music Artist: Niels Nielson
Title: We Are Youth (Instrumental)
Episode 3: Haines, AK
Mountain Hardwear athletes James Heim and Sam Anthamatten tee off in the big mountains of Haines, Alaska. The crew soaked up the great snow conditions and rare windows of sunshine during a two week trip in late February. For Anthamatten, the MSP rookie, the first-time experience in AK was one that he won't soon forget. Check out some of the deep pow, big hucks, and even bigger avalanches from Haines in this new episode!
Episode 4: Alaska
MSP takes you deep into the Chugach Range outside of Girdwood, AK along with Ingrid Backstrom, Richard Permin, Mark Abma, Cody Townsend, and heli support from our friends at Chugach Powder Guides.
Music Artist: Another Cynthia
Title: Push Back (Instrumental)
Episode 5: Whistler, BC
James Heim, Michelle Parker, and a few other friends posted up in Whistler, BC during early April after a different trip was cancelled due to extreme avalanche danger. As evidenced by the material here in Episode 5, they made the right call! Watch Michelle shred and watch Heimer spin in this latest episode!
Music Artist: Adam Lastiwka
Title: Of Gods and Men
Episode 6: Japan, Part 2
In this episode, we take another look at MSP's trip to Japan to explore the lighter side of making ski movies. Sean Pettit, Riley Leboe, and Richard Permin demonstrate the right way to party during a two week pow mission to Niseko. Follow the boys on their quest for good turns and good times!
Episode 7: Tordrillo Mountains
MSP takes us back to Alaska - this time to the largely unexplored North Tordrillo Mountains. Here in episode 7 we get a firsthand look at the monstrous AK terrain through the eyes of Mark Abma, Richard Permin, and Cody Townsend. After arriving first by floatplane to the remote Winterlake Lodge, the heli-enabled crew besieged the massive peaks and pioneered several new lines throughout the range. The action that ensued speaks for itself!
Episode 8: Whistler Jump
This is it, folks… the last episode of the year from MSP and Contour. Here in episode 8 you'll get to witness some of the madness from Whistler/Blackcomb on one of the sickest jumps of the year. Russ Henshaw and Jacob Wester teamed up with PK Hunder, Aidan Sheahan, and Richard Permin for a bunch of spinny-flippy action above epic backdrops and an outstanding sunset (you might even catch a glimpse of Russ going upside down three times).

15. February 2017
Moseley Architects implemented a clear design concept for the library's annex, in which they combined cross-story glass façades with beige stone and silver metal strips. Despite being a modern urban statement, the building's structure still pays due architectural respect to the neighboring Sacred Heart Cathedral. Its open design is underlined by a MEDIAMESH® screen from GKD USA. The two-piece screen, which measures an impressive 37 square meters, was installed in an opening with the appearance of a display cabinet. Animations and films, as well as projects and events catch the eye of passers-by in the Rose Plaza. At the same time, the screen offers insights into the work performed by the institute with concrete examples. With vertical spacing of 40 mm and horizontal spacing of 50 mm (V4H5), around 18,000 pixels guarantee excellent light intensity and picture quality, even during daylight hours. The energy efficiency of the system was another key factor. The MEDIAMESH® screen consumes 80 percent less energy than conventional displays. However, its truly unbeatable advantage comes from its transparency of up to 60 percent, which permits full utilization of the rooms located behind it. This amount of natural light entering the rooms also reduces the need for artificial lighting. In connection with effective glare protection, the unrestricted views of the world outside guarantee maximum comfort for the students working inside the building. GKD USA assumed responsibility for the entire installation of the weather-resistant media system. The MEDIAMESH® screen was fixed in position using the tried and tested technique with round profiles and eyebolts. With this approach, eyebolts are fitted above and below the screen, sitting flush with the upper edge of the opening. Installing the system at the third story level represented a special challenge. However, the team from GKD was also able to master this in their familiar manner.
