The Crimson will look to defend its home field advantage Friday versus Georgetown (Gil Talbot).
The Storyline
The Harvard men's lacrosse team returns home this week to host Georgetown Saturday, March 9 at 12 p.m. at Soldiers Field Lacrosse Stadium. The game was originally scheduled for Friday, March 8 but has been rescheduled due to Winter Storm Saturn.
Fans unable to attend the game can watch all of the action live online by clicking here.
Last Time Out
The Harvard men's lacrosse team could not withstand a strong second-half surge by Hofstra on Saturday as the Pride earned a 10-5 victory over the Crimson.
Daniel Eipp and Devin Dwyer each recorded three points with a pair of goals and an assist apiece. Dwyer has now registered nine points over the last two games and is tied with Alex White, who scored his seventh goal of the season on Saturday, for the team lead in points at 10. Peter Schwartz and Pat Fiorvanti were both credited with one assist.
Harry Krieger made nine saves in goal as Hofstra won 12-of-17 face offs. The Pride also capitalized on 3-of-6 extra-man opportunities while Harvard went 0-for-4 on the day. The Crimson was able to control possession for much of the first half and outshot Hofstra 39-31 for the game, but put just 11 shots on goal against 19 for the Pride.
Scouting Georgetown
Georgetown, which is receiving votes in the Nike/Inside Lacrosse Media Poll, will carry a 2-1 record into Friday's matchup. The Hoyas have played three straight one-goal games to opening the year, including back-to-back overtime affairs against Lafayette (L, 11-10) and Nagy (W, 9-8). Georgetown most recently defeated Dartmouth, 10-9.
The Hoyas have averaged 9.67 goals per game while allowing just 9.33 goals thanks to one of the nation's stingiest defenses. Georgetown currently ranks fifth in the NCAA in ground balls (37.3) and is ninth nationally in caused turnovers (10.0).
Brian Casey leads the attacking unit with 11 points on seven goals and four assists. Jeff Fountain has chipped in 10 points (5g, 5a) while Reilly O'Connor has tallied nine (4g, 5a). Tyler Knarr has controlled the face off X, winning 24-of-41 face offs, and has collected a team-high 19 ground balls. Alex Joyce has added 18 ground balls with Brennan Bicknese's six caused turnovers pacing the squad.
Alex Joyce has posted a 1-1 record in goal with a 9.30 goals against average and a .500 save percentage. Jake Haley made his first career start in net against the Big Green and was named the BIG EAST's Defensive Player of the Week after posting 17 saves to earn the victory.
Inside the Series
Friday's game between the Crimson and Hoyas will mark the fifth consecutive season that the teams have squared off. Georgetown owns a 3-1 advantage in the all-time series, including an 11-10 victory last year in Washington, D.C. Daniel Eipp and Jeff Cohen '12 each totaled five points on three goals and two assists in the loss, while Harry Krieger made 12 saves in goal.
Up Next
Harvard will open Ivy League play next week when it visits Brown Saturday, March 16 at 7 p.m.
White Hot
Senior Alex White registered a hat trick in each of the Crimson's first two games and is tied for the team lead with 10 points (7g, 3a) from the midfield. White entered the season with 31 career points (19g, 12a) after having played in 41 of Harvard's 42 games over the previous three seasons.
White currently ranks eighth in the Ivy League in points per game (3.33) and is ninth in goals per game (2.33).
Young Gun
Freshman Devin Dwyer has been in the starting lineup for each of the Crimson's games this season and is currently tied for the team lead in points with 10 (4g, 6a). Dwyer turned in a season-high six points in the team's win over Holy Cross with two goals and four assists, and added three points at Hofstra (2g, 1a).
Dwyer currently ranks third in the Ivy League and 14th in the NCAA in assists per game (2.00), and is eighth in points per game (3.33).
Getting Defensive
Freshmen Robert Duvnjak has appeared in two games for the Crimson, both starts, and leads the team with six caused turnovers. Duvnjak made his collegiate debut against UMass and registered four caused turnovers, then added a pair of caused turnovers as Harvard visited Hofstra.
Sharing the Wealth
11 different members of the Crimson have combined to score 27 goals this season. Alex White leads the way with seven scores on the year, while Devin Dwyer, Daniel Eipp and Peter Schwartz have added four goals apiece.
Home Field Advantage
Harvard is 12-5 at home under Chris Wojcik '96, The Frisbie Family Head Coach for Harvard Men's Lacrosse. This includes a 6-3 mark in Harvard Stadium and a 6-2 record at Soldiers Field Lacrosse Stadium.

CLASS Act
Jason Gonos has been named as one of 20 candidates for the 2013 Senior CLASS Award. To be eligible for the award, a student-athlete must be classified as an NCAA Division I senior and have notable achievements in four areas of excellence – community, classroom, character and competition.
Gonos has anchored Harvard's defensive unit for the last three years, but even more impressive than his play on the field has been his work within the community. In November, he organized the Crimson's involvement in Lacrosse Mustache Madness which raised $6,979 for the HEADstrong Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to the fight against blood cancer. Gonos has also spent time working with Happy Helpers for the Homeless in his home state of Maryland, helping to feed and clothe the homeless in Glen Burnie, Md.

Is it Christmas already?
Thanks so much, Sybille!
On another topic, which is not at all magical or pretty, but very real. I wish I would live in a perfect world, wouldn't that be nice. I've found out, that my banking card was compromised. No idea where it happened whatsoever. Very inconvenient too, but I'm surprised how well the customer service, and fraud department of our bank works. Sometimes I wish all those thieving people to hell. There's enough stress in our family life right now, I really don't need that to boot. Sigh. Wish I could bury my head in a mountain of yarn, not hearing, not seeing, and not talking to anybody. But I can't.

So sorry to hear of the bank trouble, Monika. I so agree with you about sending all those thieves to Hades. I'm sure it will all be ok, but the stress is tough. Can you knit to help calm the stress? It sure works for me. Lovely package from Germany. I'll be thinking of you.

I had a strange credit card charge once and Hubby being in the military seems to compromise his identity every couple of years. Totally sucks, but at least businesses are much more understanding about this stuff since it's happening more often. You have some nice goodies to help yourself feel better though! :-)

What a cheerful bundle of delights! All those colours!
So very sorry to hear about that 'other' news.... thieving bastids.... honestly, if something isn't yours? leave it be.
Who raised these people...sigh...
I'm glad your bank is able to sort all this out, hey, maybe they'll catch 'whoever' it was, eh?

Lucky you - that yarn is beautiful!
Banks are governed under specific rules regarding compromised identity. It is nice to hear that your bank has been so cooperative. With all of the competition out there, they've been smart!

People who think they have the right to steal from others are just....straight to hell!
But then there are people like your friend who send you packages out of the blue simply because all those things made her think of you. And that brings a smile to my face. I love celebrating in the moment!

It's the stress more than anything that gets you with the bank cards. I've actually taken to carrying cash more often and avoiding the cards unless its a trusted place. Of course, then I don't have cash when I thought I did, but it is scary. The banks are really great with following up on it though. I would suggest knitting. and chocolate.

Sorry to hear about yout credit card!

And you're not alone in loving those gummi bears!
Wishing you happy times :-)

That's terrible about your card... I had a friend who changed his debit/banking card to "ATM only" because of this sort of thing. I hope it gets straightened out soon for you.

A neighbor of mine, Dan Clow, is looking to sell his collection of Danbury Mint lighthouse replicas. He has 27 in all -- lighthouses in the U.S. and elsewhere. They're in perfect condition, all with the original certificates.
Dan will sell the whole collection for $500 (a fraction of what it's worth), or will sell the pieces individually. You can call him with questions: (603) 433-7122 or (603) 759-8123. He's in Portsmouth, NH, so this would be best for someone within driving distance, but I believe he's willing to ship them.

So, I just came upon the concept of "literals," and I'm not getting it. Apparently it's the "source code representation of a primitive data type." In other words, the number you typed in the program. I won't ask why that even needs a name; here's what I'm not getting:
It says that you can make a number be a long-type, for instance, by adding an L after it. So 30000 is an int, 30000L is a long.
But if you're declaring a variable, you can already type "long x = 30000." Why would you need the extra letter? Even if you're feeding a truly long number to the program through input, you would have to feed it to a long-type field if it were too big to fit in an int. So why is the L ever needed at all?
As a matter of fact, if I type "long x = <really big number>" into my IDE, it gives me an error that the "integer value" (even though I just declared it as a long) is too big, until I append an L to the end. And if I declare a huge number appended with L to an int var, it tells me "possible loss of precision" (nevermind the fact that it should be too big for an int var anyway, which it only spits at me if I drop the ending L).
I know this has to be a stupid question, I can feel it - the answer is going to be very de-mystifying I'm sure, but right now, I don't get the point of all this.
Thanks a lot,

UConn police arrested 35 people on Monday night as fans smashed a window in an engineering building on the campus in Storrs, Conn., broke streetlights and overturned furniture inside the school's student union after UConn won the national basketball championship.
Twenty of the people arrested are UConn students.
Most of the arrests were for minor offenses, including breach of peace, interfering with police and vandalism, but at least one person was charged with inciting a riot.
U.S. & World
University of Connecticut spokesman Tom Breen said on Monday night that state police had made other arrests.
"A lot of it was alcohol-related," Breen said. "There was breach of peace, destruction of property, and we had a fireworks charge."
Most of the property damage was minor and no serious injuries had been reported.
More than 10,000 UConn students shook the stands inside Gampel Pavilion, erupted in cheers and stormed the arena floor as the Huskies beat Kentucky 60-54 in the NCAA title game, giving the program its fourth national championship, and second in four years.
"I painted my face because I'm going to be a Husky for the rest of my life. Student today. Husky forever! Whoo," Linette Duluc, a junior, said.
"I'm just so happy to be a Husky right now," said Mike Butkus, a 21-year-old senior from Naugatuck. "So much pride. The last 20 years, you'd be hard-pressed to find a program more successful than us."
Students waited in line for up to four hours to get a seat inside the arena just to watch on three large movie screens as their team played 1,700 miles away in Arlington, Texas.
The arena was filled a half-hour after the doors opened, and hundreds more fans were turned away. Several who were left out in the rain yelled to be allowed in.
"It's my first year of college, you've got to go big," said Ryan Massicotte, an 18-year-old freshman from Naugatuck who was sporting a fuzzy Husky dog hat and sunglasses with the dog logo on each lens. "You've got to show it off the right way."
The students sang the national anthem, chanted "Let's go Huskies" before the tip, roared when the home team was introduced and booed the Kentucky players.
The stands shook every time Shabazz Napier made a 3-pointer. The pep band and school dance team entertained the crowd during timeouts.
They jumped up and down chanting "I believe that we will win" as their Huskies struggled through a second-half rally by Kentucky.
A few minutes later, as the final seconds ticked off the clock in Texas, they pushed their way on the floor, turning it into a giant mosh pit as their belief became a 60-54 reality.
After the victory the students went outside onto a plaza for a dance party in the rain. The school hired a disc jockey in an effort to keep crowds of students under control. As many danced, some festivities got out of control, with people hanging from trees and light poles and throwing firecrackers.
Extra campus police and state police patrolled on and around campus and several fire companies were on standby with ambulances.
"We expected a big celebration for our fourth men's national championship," UConn Chief of Police Barbara O'Connor said in a statement. "By far, most of our students have conducted themselves safely and responsibly. Although there have been some arrests and property damage, we're pleased overall with most of our students' behavior, especially considering we had a capacity crowd of over 10,000 in Gampel Pavilion and thousands more elsewhere on campus. UConn Police will be extensively using security camera footage during our investigations to ensure that offenders are identified and held accountable, to the fullest extent of the law."
Several people were helped from the arena by paramedics, apparently with alcohol-related issues.
Students said they expect the party to go on into the early morning hours.
"Hopefully I'll be able to go to class tomorrow, but I'm not certain," said Vincent Buffa, a 21-year-old senior from Tolland.
The team planned to return to Gampel for a pep rally at 5 p.m. Tuesday, followed by another viewing party — this one for the UConn women's team.
The undefeated women will be seeking a ninth national title when they play Notre Dame in Nashville.
"This energy is like something I've never felt in my entire life," Ricky O'Neill, a freshman from New York, said Monday night. "And we're going to do this all again tomorrow."

Introducing a game of "Russian Roulette" you will be able to demonstrate the talents and skills used by the security industry to assess risks and dangerous situations.
The spectator is shown six cards, numbered 1 - 6 and told that they represent the chambers in a six shot revolver. They are then asked to freely select any number and that will be the chamber in which the "live bullet" will be loaded.
With the cards in full view at all times you are able to produce a card from your wallet that has also been in full view that identifies the exact number chosen. But wait, there's more you turn over all the numbered cards to show they are blank but when you turn over the spectators chosen card it shows a picture of a smoking gun.
For the first time Kenny reveals the workings behind his signature effect.
Including an extra variation of the routine with a hilarious punch that hits not once, not twice but three times. Leaving your spectators bewildered astonished and a little frightened too.
Loaded is a very strong mentalism effect that can be performed as close up, cabaret or even on stage.
Quick reset - stunning mental effect - easy to learn.

What's a Libertarian?
That's the question that John Stossel will be asking Thursday night to a motley collection of guests, including P. J. O'Rourke, Andrew Napolitano, Jeffrey Miron, and me. Tune in the Fox Business Network at 8:00 p.m. ET.
It repeats many times, as noted here, but you know, it's like the NCAA championship: you don't want to watch the repeat on ESPN Classic, you want to watch it live with everyone else for the collective experience. So be there at 8:00 Thursday.
Or of course you could just read Libertarianism: A Primer and The Libertarian Reader.

How does billing work for Reseller Hosting?
Reseller Hosting lets you sell unlimited bandwidth and storage plans to your customers. This means you can sell hosting plans that don't trigger overage charges, and you're only billed overage charges if the total used bandwidth (all hosted sites combined) exceeds your monthly allotment.
You are billed a flat fee for Reseller Hosting unless you exceed your monthly bandwidth allotment. Bandwidth is a measurement of the amount of data allowed to pass between a user's website and the rest of the Internet. Bandwidth includes all incoming and outgoing data transfer from your server including but not limited to Web traffic, FTP usage, all emails passing through our mail server, etc. Each Reseller Hosting plan comes with a certain amount of bandwidth per month, measured in gigabytes (GB).
If you exceed your server's bandwidth allotment, you will incur bandwidth overage charges.
We suggest taking these measures to prevent bandwidth overage:
Review your server's bandwidth usage routinely. See Review your bandwidth usage.
If you experience an increase in Web traffic, you can purchase additional bandwidth as a recurring billing service. See Add bandwidth.
Consider bandwidth overage protection, which shields you from bandwidth overage charges by automatically suspending your account when it exceeds its allotted bandwidth. Reinstatement occurs at the start of your next billing cycle or when additional bandwidth is purchased. See Adding Bandwidth-Overage Protection to Your Server and Adding Bandwidth-Overage Protection to Your Server for more information.

Published at Thursday, July 04th, 2019 - 00:31:11 AM. Wedding Venue. By Alfonso Krämer.
Most wedding venues in Essex not only hold the wedding ceremony, but also allow you to hold your wedding breakfast and of course your evening reception. Again, consider how many guests you will be inviting, and check with the wedding venue how many people they can comfortably seat for the meal. You certainly don't want your wedding guests crammed in, nor do you want guests shoved somewhere at the back of the venue too far away from the top table. Check with the wedding venue if they have their own caterers or whether you need to look for wedding caterers yourself. This will have a significant impact on the costs of hiring the wedding venue.
When it comes to the evening reception, ask the venue if they provide any entertainment, many wedding venues in Essex have their own resident DJ. Check whether this means you have to use their DJ or whether you can hire your own. Again this may make a difference in the cost of hiring the particular venue.

GM slow to act on recalls, House documents show
Documents from a House subcommittee show that General Motors CEO Mary Barra received an email about a steering problem in the Saturn Ion in October 2011 — more than two years before the car was recalled.
That email message was not related to a problem with an ignition switch that is at the heart of a separate recall of 2.6 million small cars. That recall is the subject of a subcommittee investigation. GM has linked that problem to 13 deaths.
The documents also show that a GM engineer signed off on changes to the defective switch without changing the part number, which made the problem harder to track.
Also included is a 2013 email from federal regulators complaining that GM is slow to act on safety issues.

Latina media dynamo and women's empowerment advocate Nely Galán, dubbed the "Tropical Tycoon" by The New York Times Magazine, is one of the entertainment industry's savviest firebrand talents. An immigrant and self-made media mogul, Galán was the first Latina President of Entertainment for a U.S. television network (Telemundo). She is an Emmy Award-winning producer of over 600 episodes of television in Spanish and English, including the FOX hit reality series "The Swan".
After becoming self-made on her own terms, Galán has made it her mission to teach women—regardless of age or background—how they too can become entrepreneurs. Her New York Times best-selling book, SELF MADE: Becoming Empowered, Self-Reliant, and Rich in Every Way (¡ADELANTE! Cómo Ser Emprendedora y Autosuficiente Para Alcanzar Una Vida Rica y Realizada) was published by Spiegel & Grau/Random House in 2016. Inspired by the new revolution in women's entrepreneurship led by multicultural women, Galán wrote the book as a manifesto to ignite the SELF MADE movement, uniting all women on a quest for an economic future they control.
Galán is also the founder of the nonprofit The Adelante Movement, which seeks to train and empower Latinas to become entrepreneurs.
More About Galán
Galán is the former President of Entertainment of the powerhouse Telemundo television network, making her the first Latina president at a major network. She has owned and operated her own media company since 1994.
Galán Entertainment has helped launch 10 groundbreaking television channels in Latin America, and has also produced 700 episodes of programming that cross all genres, from reality series to sitcoms, telenovelas to talk shows, in both English and Spanish.
In addition, Galán is the founder and president of Santa Clara LLC, a real estate development and investment company that has commercial and residential real estate holdings in multiple states.
In 2008, Galán appeared on the first season of the NBC hit The Celebrity Apprentice with Donald Trump, joining an all-star cast including Gene Simmons, Nadia Comaneci, Marilu Henner, and the infamous Omarosa. Galán's appearance on the show, where she raised $250,000 for her charity Count Me In for women entrepreneurship, cemented her reputation as one of the nation's top female leaders.
Galán is a sought-after speaker on the subject of women entrepreneurs, and the role of diversity in the US economy. She has spoken at Coca-Cola, American Express, General Electric, the US Chamber of Commerce, the Gates Foundation, the Clinton Foundation and the United Nations.
Galán is also frequently cited for her influential work as a board member for the Hispanic Scholarship Fund, number one resource for Hispanic and Latino scholarship programs, and The Coca-Cola Company Advisory Council. She is an Emeritus member of The Smithsonian Board and was featured in HBO's The Latino List documentary and national museum show as one of the most influential voices in the Latino community.
Galán is based in Venice, California, where she lives with her family.

Andrew and Lisa Corcoran spent years working in the corporate sector in various roles before they made a decision that would change their life together. They took the concept of work-life balance to the ultimate height by leaving their corporate jobs behind to break out on their own as entrepreneurs a few months ago.
"I grew up in a very entrepreneurial family, so I think it's safe to say it's in my blood," says Lisa, who is taking care of the couple's four-and seven-year-olds as they make the move from Kelowna to Calgary to launch the first Calgary-based franchise of Wow-1day! Painting, a home painting company based in B.C.
"As far as being worried about leaving the security (of a corporate job) to come to this business - not at all," she says.
A lot of people are throwing the shackles - and the steady paycheque - of their corporate careers to go into business for themselves. It's part of a generational change taking place in which more people are prepared to go risk everything for the ultimate work-life balance, says one Calgary human resources consultant.
"I think it's more common for people these days to take that plunge," Jennifer Cummings says. "The thrill of being an entrepreneur, along with the risks, can also come with a sense of freedom that is hard to match in a nine-to-five corporate job."
The Corcorans had always wanted to own their own business when they moved to Kelowna seven years ago, but they never quite found the right fit.
Andrew spent 17 years working in the software and IT industry, managing a large staff and overseeing internal software support and training. Lisa worked in marketing for a golf course near Kelowna before leaving two years ago to work for Fortis B.C.
Then they saw the opportunity to get in on the ground floor with a rapidly expanding franchise company opening its first Calgary-based location and decided it was the right opportunity.
"We spent a lot of time working for other organizations and learning a lot from those other organizations," says Lisa. "I think it's given us a really strong foundation for what lies ahead."
Andrew moved to Calgary in December to get the business up and running, while Lisa moved out this week, after spending several weeks selling the house and getting ready for the move.
Andrew is running the daytoday operations of the company while Lisa provides strategic, part-time advice on the marketing and direction side of building the business and its brand. He wouldn't change a thing in terms of giving up his corporate job to pursue entrepreneurship.
"I think there's risk with everything you do," says Andrew, adding it's helpful to have a wellestablished brand behind you as a franchisor. "At the end of the day, it's still our hard work that will get us there, but we've got a lot of support behind us."
Lisa's father, who was an entrepreneur, asked the difficult questions and helped mentor and coach them through the process of finding the right business venture for them and getting it off the ground.
They also know the value of the experience they gained during those years spent working in the corporate trenches and continue to use those skills in their new careers as entrepreneurs. They wouldn't trade their corporate experience, but both say it was time to move on to the next phase of their professional lives.
Wow-1day! Painting is the brainchild of Brian Scudamore, who is well known for his successful 1-800-Got-Junk concept that has become a highly lucrative business. Wow-1day! works on the premise that they can outcompete by guaranteeing that the entire house will be painted in one day.
The Calgary franchise's opening coincided with an appearance on the reality TV series Undercover Boss Canada by its Vancouver franchise counterpart.
The pair of corporate professionals turned entrepreneurs underscore the importance of waiting for the right opportunity instead of jumping at the first business that comes along. Research and due diligence is critical before leaving the job security of a permanent, full-time job, says Lisa.
In the end, both are confident they have made the right decision. "For me, personally, it was about finding the right fit," says Lisa.
"We were looking to balance our lifestyle with having some flexibility around our kids' schedule. Just be patient (and) be thorough in your research."

We know the winter can be tough on your motivation. It can be cold, dark and wet - it all just makes the sofa far too inviting. In fact, anything can seem like a better idea than going out on the bike. It's surprisingly easy to talk yourself out of going for a ride, isn't it?
That's why we've rounded up 10 products that we reckon will help you get stuck in, when you'd tempted to get stuck into the mince pies instead.
Wrap up warm
It's cold out there, and there's nothing like investing in a high-quality cycling jacket to help get you out the door. Some of the jackets we've tested recently have been so good that they've made us hope for cold and wet weather just so we can enjoy taking it on. Check out our jackets review archive.
Keep spray at bay
If it's the thought of getting caked in mud and water from the road that's putting you off riding, slap some mudguards on your bike. We know the misery of getting a wet bum and legs from the spray thrown up your own wheels, but with some mudguards fitted it can be fun to cycle through the rain. Go to our mudguard reviews.
Light the night
The day seems all too short at the moment and if you're insistent on getting on your bike in daylight hours, you probably won't get much riding done. Riding at night can be a lot of fun. It's great to riding into the sunset and then come home in the pitch black. With some of the latest and brightest lights there's little to fear from the darkness. Go to our lights reviews to see what's available and find out how the various options stack up.
Base layer for warmth
A really good base layer feels luxurious next to your skin. A good one - our fave is merino wool - will keep you well insulated from the cold, and keep you dry when you get a sweat on. Baselayers can sometimes seem expensive, but the warmth and comfort they offer is worth the small outlay. Get yourself a good one - or several - from our base layers reviews archive and you'll never look back. Trust us.
Power training
Winter is a good time for getting the miles in, and a CycleOps PowerTap wheel is a good way of taking your training to the next level. Perhaps you want to get into racing next year, do your first time trial or finish a sportive with a gold time. Whatever your aim is, a PowerTap can help you get the most from every ride, help you turn your weaknesses into strengths and making every ride a specific training session. Check out our review.
Turbocharge your training
If you really can't face the outdoors and don't want to hit the gym, then a turbo trainer is an affordable way to keeping cycling. Your rear wheel simply clips into the frame and you can pedal as hard as you like, until a pool of sweat collects on the kitchen floor. Turbo trainers can be hard work but they're great for training when it's just too horrible outside. Read our review of the Cycleops Fluid 2 indoor trainer, for example.
Ride a new route
Exploring new routes is a good way to keep things interesting. If you're tired of following the same old route you always ride, then why not explore some new roads? You can either use a free mapping website to plot your own route, or search for routes in your area then download them to a GPS computer. It's a good way of expanding your horizons and you'll probably be surprised at how many good roads you've been missing out on. The Garmin Edge 800 is a great GPS computer to help you.
Banish puncture woes
Punctures are no fun and if you're continually getting them it's time to get some new rubber for your bike. Tyres can be expensive, but remember that they're a very important part of your bicycle. They're the contact between you and the road, and have a huge influence on how the bike rides, so don't skimp. Go to our tyre Buyer's Guide to find the best choice for you.
Look after your fingers
Gloves are an essential item of clothing that can have a huge impact on your riding happiness. Nothing is more miserable than freezing cold fingers, and the bad news is that once they get cold on a ride they're only going to get colder. We've been known to cut rides short because of cold hands so chunky winter gloves are a must. These Extremities gloves, for example, will help keep the cold out.
Set a challenge
Join the Rapha Festive 500 or set yourself another challenge (and, yes, before anyone points it out, we know it's not stictly a product). There's nothing like having a goal to stimulate flagging motivation, and the idea of riding 500km between Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve could be just what you need. Go on, go on, go on...
David has worked on the road.cc tech team since July 2012. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds.

Broomfield, CO - December 12, 2012
Webroot, a leader in delivering Internet security as a service, today announced a four-year global agreement with Anittel, one of the world's largest managed service providers. This agreement will ensure Webroot® SecureAnywhere™ Business – Endpoint Protection is deployed across up to 10,000 customer endpoints. Webroot is helping Anittel more effectively deliver and manage their customer's endpoint security from the cloud, while lowering overhead costs, increasing productivity, and maximizing recurring revenue streams.
Conventional antivirus solutions are not designed to counter the high rate of infections and breaches businesses continue to experience, requiring a new approach to detect and prevent malware across multiple domains, customers and offices from centralized remote consoles and locations in "single pane of glass" views. By partnering with Webroot, Anittel can now leverage the unique architecture, speed and flexibility of Webroot Endpoint Protection to more efficiently address potential breaches and infections as well as offering a more seamless managed antivirus experience to its customers. The solution will also simplify many of Anittel's existing processes and reduce the burden of IT administration on its staff and its clients.
The cloud-based Webroot SecureAnywhere Business – Endpoint Protection provides the most advanced real-time protection available against both known and unknown malware. Unlike traditional security solutions, Webroot SecureAnywhere installs in seconds, scans in less than two minutes, and never requires security updates or signature database downloads which consume network bandwidth and leave users exposed. Webroot's unique client and cloud architecture allows customers to quickly gather critical collective endpoint data and provide real-time intelligence to protect against ever-evolving threats.
"After an extensive review of the majority of anti-malware products available on the market, Anittel chose Webroot for its revolutionary 'no definition' update model, its small install and scanning footprint and its excellent detection and remediation abilities," commented Rob Pickering, National Engineering Manager at Anittel. "We expect that the deployment of this will save significant amounts of our staff's time and lead our customers to have a much better managed antivirus experience than our previous solution."
"Through expanded integration with leading remote monitoring and management (RMM) platforms and strong commitment to our global Webroot Channel Program, we're very excited to be working with Anittel under this new agreement," said Jeff Santelices, vice president of Webroot Worldwide Demand Fulfillment. "The superior benefits of Webroot Secure Anywhere Business – Endpoint Protection will be extended to thousands of customers, and help differentiate and grow Anittel's service capabilities."

Some Interesting News... And What I Think About It...
I know I'm on the dull, safe side, not on the cutting edge, but I was surprised today. Apparently, the latest color for Christmas trees is black.
I read it in the news. It must be so. I did a Google search for "black Christmas tree" and it is so, indeed.
I don't care if someone wants a black tree. Black is no more a fake color than gold or silver or white. I remain a traditionalist, though. My artificial Christmas tree is green and it's going to stay that way.

CARSON, Calif. — The last time Real Salt Lake faced the LA Galaxy, things did not go well for the Claret and Cobalt. Robbie Keane sliced up the RSL defense, scoring three second-half goals to lead L.A. to a 4-2 win that wasn't as close as the final score indicated.
RSL are hoping the result is different on Sunday night when it faces L.A. In the first leg of their Western Conference Semifinal. One thing that will definitely be different is that Chris Schuler will be back in the lineup and — if all goes as planned — providing a more intimidating look, getting in the way of Keane and Landon Donovan.
"Yeah, I definitely think I bring somewhat of a physical presence to the game," Schuler told MLSsoccer.com. "I enjoy filling that spot on the field. One of my former coaches used to say, 'Some people carry the piano, some people play it.' I'm definitely a piano carrier."
RSL coach Jason Kreis said the plan this season was to have Schuler fill the shoes of Jamison Olave, who was traded to New York to clear salary cap space after the 2012 season.
"[Schuler] was the one that we had planned on learning to be a bit more of a physical presence for us in the center-back pairing with Nat Borchers," Kreis told reporters. "Nat, we feel, is the leader and the communicator back there and Olave was always the physical, athletic presence that would sometimes put a little bit of fear into opposing forwards."
But Schuler, a 6-4, 185-pound center-back, spent much of the season on the sidelines with a left-foot injury. He sat out four months in 2012 with a stress fracture in the same foot, and so RSL held him out much of 2013 trying to prevent another fracture.
He got back on the field for a reserve match on Aug. 31 and promptly sprained his ankle. A month later, he finally returned to the starting lineup -- his first start since mid-May -- and now he's finding his form.
"He performing at a level that is actually higher than before he left," Kreis said. "He was playing through an injury … so we think he's a little bit more of a physical presence for us. And, hopefully, a guy that can partner well with Borchers.
"I think that he gives us just a little bit of a different dimension. He gives us a player who can physically put a little bit of fear into forwards. That's something we've lacked."
Even if those forwards are the high-paid, high-profile Galaxy duo.
"Robbie Keane and Landon Donovan are great players," Schuler said. "They're world-class players, in my opinion. So I like to match up against players like that."

What sort of cool Marvel shout-outs are hiding inside The Avengers' opening and closing titles? What weapons and character staples did we missed as they flashed by the big screen? An excellent recap of the entire sequence reveals a few new glances at some iconic S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent toys, plus Avengers costume close ups.
Art of the Title, who is hosting these amazing images along with the entire title sequence video, interviewed Creative Director of Method Studios, Steve Viola. Here's a little snippet of how he and his team at Method conjured up the introduction to Earth's Mightiest Heroes, in the closing credits:
Originally, we were going with an abstract fly-through of the Helicarrier where we would come across some of the heroes' items, but it wasn't post-battle and it was just as much about the Helicarrier as the characters – which is how I originally pitched it to our concept artist, Chris Sanchez. I wanted something that dropped us into the high-tech world of S.H.I.E.L.D and stepped back from the actual characters so we could get a feel for them through their areas in the flying S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
Eventually the team decided on a post-battle look that focused more on the team and less on the Helicarrier, to give off a whole "real stakes" or "battle scars" look that Whedon was channeling.
Less obvious character Items you should look for while scrolling the titles: Nick Fury's holster, Black Widow's stinger and Bruce Banner's glasses.

Use the links below to download a distribution of Apache MyFaces Test from one of our mirrors. It is good practice to verify the integrity of the distribution files.
You will be prompted for a mirror - if the file is not found on yours, please be patient, as it may take 24 hours to reach all mirrors.
Apache MyFaces Test is distributed as a zip archive (for Windows) and as a tar.gz archive (for UNIX). The content is the same. Please note that the tar.gz archives contain file names longer than 100 characters and have been created using GNU tar extensions. Thus they must be untarred with a GNU compatible version of tar.

Verifying checksums
It is essential that you verify the integrity of the downloaded files using the PGP and MD5 signatures. MD5 verification ensures the file was not corrupted during the download process. PGP verification ensures that the file came from a certain person.
To verify the MD5 signature on the files, you need to use a program called md5 or md5sum, which is included in many UNIX distributions. It is also available as part of GNU Textutils. Windows users can get binary md5 programs from here, here, or here.
Verifying signatures
PGP verification ensures that the file came from a certain person. We strongly recommend you verify your downloads with both PGP and MD5.
The PGP signatures can be verified using PGP or GPG. First download the Apache MyFaces KEYS as well as the asc signature file for the particular distribution.

Equipe Vallee de l'Aluminium-Devinci 2008
In the wake of a first season filled with success, the 2008 edition of EVA-Devinci promises to be just as competitive. The team has acquired a CCA Trade Team classification and will be present at all the major races on the Quebec calendar; including Le Tour de Beauce, Canadian & Quebec championships, the Mardis de Lachine series, as well as many other races along the Eastern seaboard.
The team will be able to count on four of its returning junior racers making the jump to the senior ranks. These riders include: Simon Gagnon-Brassard, David Maltais (winner of the Classique Chlorophylle), Guillaume Boivin (winner of the National Junior overall ranking in 2007), and Stéphane Cossette (Canadian National Champion on the road and on the track). With the incredible sprinting qualities of Guillaume and Stéphane, EVA-Devinci will be a threat in any bunch sprints.
To bring some maturity and experience to this impetuous group of young riders, EVA-Devinci will be able to call upon on a wide diversity of riders. The ever sympathetic Charles Thibault will be returning to the team after a progressive 2007. EVA-Devinci will as well have three new riders for 2008. They include: Georges-Édouard Duquette, who will be making the jump from mountain biking; Sandy Fulton, the Ontario member of the team fresh off a season in Belgium; and Jean-Sébastien Perron, an excellent climber and third place finisher at last season's Quebec Championships.
To complete this diverse line up of riders, EVA-Devinci is happy to be able to count on the return of Mathieu Toulouse, our professional mountain biker, top cyclocross rider, and Quebec Provincial Champion in both the Road Race and Time Trial.
L'Équipe cycliste de la Vallée de l'Aluminium-Devinci is proud to be supported by The Aluminum Valley Society, Rio-Tinto-Alcan, Devinci Cycles, Desjardins Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, GM Canada, Pearl Izumi, SRAM, Mavic, Groupe Madie, and Endurance Nutrition.

2004 Porsche Carrera GT

Summer is in full swing around here...
Sadie got out of school a few days ago and that meant saying yes to a little project she had been wanting to do for her teachers. She desperately wanted to make cupcakes for her teachers, but being the overachiever that she is, just regular old cupcakes would not do. Here is what we spent way to much time making...
She was so proud to carry those into school! And it just made her whole day again when she walked by and saw me posting the pictures. She always knows I am super proud when I share pictures of what she's been doing!
Her day was not so made, however, when she stepped off the bus from her last day of kindergarten ever. Sadie has been really sad about school ending, so I wanted to make that moment when she stepped off the bus really fun for her. So Noah and I each got a can of silly string and we silly stringed her when she got off. It did not go over well. In fact- it scared her to death!
No- that is not happiness written all over her face! That is one tradition that definitely will not stick. I am so happy to have her home for a couple of months.
We also went swimming in GranMary's pool
And caught lightning bugs...
Well, the rest of us caught lightning bugs- Noah couldn't get the hang of it so he smashed a few, but we'll try again!
And in case you are wondering what I am doing for me this summer- I hired a babysitter. She came over to hang out with the kids a little while yesterday to get to know everyone better and learn their routines. She will be coming over one blessed day a week to take my place while I take a day a week to decompress. (I may cry when she goes off to college in the fall.) In years past, the money has stopped me from doing this, but this year I developed that attitude that I can't afford NOT to take care of myself. I deserve a break! Cause if mama's happy and functioning the whole machine runs better. I may have FINALLY just figured out that I am worth a day off! She's also available on some nights- so I see lots more date nights with my darling husband.
Oh, how I love summer! Don't you find that the days are so much easier when you can just turn the children loose in the backyard? Thank you Jesus for inflatable pools, bikes, swing sets and your beautiful sunshine!
