UM makes surprising stadium revelation; Canes personnel notes
A six-pack of Hurricanes nuggets on Thanksgiving:
• There's no doubt that UM's home field advantage in the Orange Bowl was a tremendous asset during the program's glory years.
But UM defensive coordinator Manny Diaz believes Hard Rock Stadium might not take a backseat to the OB in creating an edge for the home team.
And who would have ever thought that would happen?
"I think it does," Diaz told WQAM's Joe Rose and Zach Krantz when asked if Hard Rock now compares to the OB atmosphere. "It's been awesome. The fans have been unbelievable. Defensively, they are getting the feel of when a defense has the advantage of that home crowd behind them. On one of Trent Harris' sacks in the Notre Dame game, he jumps off the ball and the tackle can't hear the snap count."
Diaz said: "You remember what it was like in the Orange Bowl when you went down in the west end zone. You weren't going to score. The team had to go into the open end to have a chance. And now this stadium doesn't have an open end. And they put a roof on it and it's super loud now.
"You saw it in the third quarter [last week]. We had Virginia pinned down by the west end zone and that's where the pick six occurred. We talk to the defensive guys, 'Every time you take the field acknowledge the crowd, get them going.'"
A Notre Dame player said this stadium was the loudest he played in as a college player.
• Speaking of Harris, Mark Richt called Harris' eight-sack senior season "amazing."
Richt, on his weekly show with WQAM's Joe Zagacki and Don Bailey Jr., said "I'm really happy for him. When you play hard and do right and start getting a little momentum, it's a lot of fun to be around. He'll remember it for the rest of his life."
And even though Chad Thomas has just 2.5 sacks (to go with 24 tackles and 8.5 tackles for loss), Richt said Thomas "is disrupting a lot of things," has been stout against the run and is "as physical as you can ask an end to be who has the pass rushing skills. He's doing an excellent job."
• Former defensive end Scott Patchan, who asked to move to tight end in August because of UM's lack of depth there combined with Miami's excellent depth at defensive end, played a few snaps at defensive end against Virginia.
Richt said Patchan asked defensive line coach Craig Kuligowski if he could play Saturday, with Demetrius Jackson out for the season and Deonte Johnson back home in Sacramento for a few days for an excused personal absence.
Kuligowski, according to Richt, asked him: "Do you remember what to do?"
Now, Richt said, "we have another two way player."
Patchan received some snaps at tight end earlier this season during a game that backup Michael Irvin Jr. was benched for off-field reasons.
• More evidence how winning helps recruiting: Tampa-based Will Putnam, the nation's No. 3 guard in the 2019 class, told Canesport that he is now considering UM and that Miami's undefeated season has made him more interested.
"Honestly it has," Putnam said. "But that's the same way with anyone else. A really good team is really appealing."
• Couple personnel items: Chris Herndon is "playing like a tight end should," Richt said. "He's going to make someone a really good pro some day."
Herndon, a fine blocker, has 37 catches for 436 yards (an 11.8 average) and four touchdowns. No, he's not as explosive as Cleveland first-round pick David Njoku (43 catches for 698 yards and a 16.2 average and 8 TDs last season), but who is? But Herndon has two catch-and-runs of 46 yards or more in the past month…
Richt said of freshman receiver Mike Harley Jr. that opposing cornerbacks "don't like him because he's so tenacious as a blocker."
• UM's 19 turnovers in the past five games more than 88 teams have the entire year, per WQAM's Zagacki and UM's ace PR man Camron Ghorbi…. UM has scored a touchdown on 10 of its last 13 trips to the red zone, a dramatic improvement from earlier in the season.
This is the second in several Thanksgiving posts. Here's my post on the lack of growth by Dolphins' young veterans, a stark contract to what we're seeing with UM's team.
Here's my look at who Canes fans should root for this week and updated scenarios on how Miami could make the playoffs if it loses a game.... Twitter: @flasportsbuzz

Does anyone know if the London Stock Exchange provides a service to get companies financial statements similar to the SEC's Edgar system? SEC offers RSS feeds and FTP access to the data. I'm hoping the LSE (or FSA??) would have something similar.
I've searched both sites and can't find anything. The closest that I found is going to the LSE's site and having to do a company by company search.
If anyone knows of a services provider that provides a feed of similar data, that works too.

You can do this by adding a new ScalarMap variable2 -> Shape which will plot shapes along the surface, but without seeing the surface you are seeing now. If you want to see the surface and the shapes, display both data objects: ((trial_number, time) -> variable1) ((trial_number, time) ->(variable1,variable2)) Good luck, Bill

While it's important to be your authentic self, it's equally important to present a professional image of yourself to prospective employers. The reality is that there are certain expectations in the work work world.
Althought it's true that the official or unofficial dress code in each work place can vary, when you go to an interview, you want your appearance to show that you cared enough about getting the job to make an effort to look good (and appropriate) for the interview. Also, you want it to be easy for the employer to picture you working with their other employers and especially their customers. Looking a little more polished than you might normally look every day on the job you are applying for is generally the way to go.
Avoid wearing clothes that are torn, and that don't fit right. They should be clean and ironed - if necessary. It's also important to dress appropriately for the job. For example, it's not wise to wear a suit to an interview at a garage or coveralls to an interview at a restaurant.

At the request of some of the evening students, we had scheduled make-ups of two of the Top 10 Research Skills workshops - Getting Background on your Topic and Strategic Searching. Due to sudden illness of a family member, the Getting Background session, scheduled for tomorrow night has been canceled. Due to the newly scheduled Deans' Forum, Strategic Searching has been rescheduled to next Monday, April 7 at 5:10pm in Room 206.
We regret all the confusion with these sessions - we really are trying!!! We will try to reschedule the Getting Background session. Watch this space. Remember, the podcasts are available on the Library's website and the handouts are available on TWEN.

I salvaged a set of shelves that were located in an institution's hallway for some years. There was a mysterious film on the kickplate at the front bottom of the shelves. It took me a while to figure out what it was.
I scraped about a handful of the stuff off a three foot length of panel. It had been in the hall for long enough to build up a nice coating of floor wax from the side of the orbital buffer.
I've always vaguely understood what was meant by marketing copy that describes car wax as "fluffy", but I don't think that this is what they meant.

Amy Plant: Art, Social Inclusion, and the Sustainable Development Goals/
Central Queensland University delegate Amy Plant is heading off to the ECOSOC HLPF in New York next week. Leading up to the summit Amy has written a fascinating article for the Good Word.
Amy works in Port Hedland for FORM, a NFP which utilises arts and culture programs to promote community development. The article combines Amy's experience at FORM with her research as part of the Global Voices Scholarship program.
An extract for the article:
Or, how do you measure what a young boy, no older than ten, was feeling as he sprinted across the Hedland Art Awards to tell me his grandmother had a painting in the exhibition? He asked me to read the artwork story, politely nodding and taking in the details. Later I watched him enthusiastically explain the painting in detail to his friend. The painting was by a senior Aboriginal artist from a Pilbara based art centre. Can we ever really capture what this experience meant and its impact on this young boy? To see his grandmother's artwork and his culture displayed alongside dozens of other entries?

Photo Booth
As a brand in decline, Impulse needed to reconnect with its teen market.
No longer passive, these girls didn't sit back and wait for boys to make the move and the brands old positioning of "if a man suddenly gives you flowers... that's impulse" was tired and out of touch.
It was time for Impulse to get flirty. Get cheeky. Get impulsive.
Kicking off with "Photo Booth" the new Be Impulsive positioning saw a brand in decline turn things around to regain top spot and undergo massive growth to claim 81% of the entire body spray market. As a true partner in the brand's development we assisted in the development of a new annual range of limited edition releases resulting in brand growth of 30%.
This massive revamp of the brand saw the creative campaigns and product concepts exported to markets in Europe and South America, and saw several of the campaigns go on to be awarded the Unilever Australasian Award for Best Campaign and Most Effective Campaign.
Impulse minis
As part of the Limited Edition range we introduced "Impulse minis" with TV, cinema and press elements that were shrunk down to 1/4 size of usual advertising.
An execution for Impulse Minis - shrunk down to 1/4 the size of every other ad in the magazines.

text: Why 12 more hens? More Eggs is the answer. So we bought 12 Rhode Island Reds at laying age so we can have eggs and i need to get 20 more. Why do i need so many eggs? Good question and to quote a movie in the theaters currently "when i was a boy i ate 5 dozen eggs....." Thats not why though :). We will no doubt share in the eggs but they are primarily for our pigs which are on the way and slightly delayed. We will not be using any commercial hog feed due to the cost and the fact that all we can get here in Hawaii is GMO and non organic feed. So our pigs will be enjoying the pasture and rooting around for things. They will also be given produce from the garden such as pumpkins and radish's. With all this great food the pigs still need lysine so we can use eggs from our free range chickens to supply that. Hence the need for so many hens! We will boil the eggs which doubles the protein availability and feed them to the pigs in the shell. We can also use dairy for this such as from a milk goat or cow. We are working on that option but for now this is an easy way to get Lysine. The chickens scratch around for bugs and eat the grass and we don't use a layer feed for them either but rather give them the occasional treat of an organic scratch. So this keeps our cost down and allows us to control the quality of the feed much better. To add to that we are planting seed including, Mesclun Mix, Arugula, Tomatillos, Jalepenos, more tomatoes, and herbs ect... We are also starting our first microgreens. Sunflower Shoots, Pea Shoots, and a few others. If you look at the pictures below you will see the boots used for weight on the microgreens. Microgreens were studied by the University of Maryland College of Agriculture (https://agnr.umd.edu/news/mighty-microgreens) and showed to have up to 40 times the nutrients of fully grown vegetables. The amazing thing is you can grow them in 11-15 days depending on what variety. We also put down black plastic to prepare a 50x10 foot area for planting using a minimal to no-till approach which helps with keeping the soil biology healthy and active. So we covered it and now the earthworms which are numerous in our soil will do their work for the next 2-3 weeks. I will post some pictures as the seedlings make their debut.

text: My "Photos of the Day" for August 31st, 2014 is of a pair of British Gentlemen I made several years ago as samples for a costuming seminar we had here at Land of Oz Dolls. The "Gentleman" in red is a Jullien reproduced from a Byron mold. The costume was made by Pam Willits and the seminar was taught by Pam. The "Gentlemen" in brown is a Steiner and was made from a Doll House Mold Co. mold, I made this costume in Pam's seminar. The fabric for both of these costumes came from a wonderful antique store just 10 miles from me called "Ideas and Designs" in Mt. Carroll, Il. When I have seminars and retreats, a trip to "Ideas and Designs" is always on the agenda.They both stand approximately 25″ tall on the FB18S composition body. I hope you enjoy seeing this pair of "British Gentlemen"! Dolly Hugs, Connie Zink

How Do Basic Casino Games Work?
To truly enjoy online slot games, you need to understand how the games work. That goes for storyline games and strategy games. Strategy games, especially, require an understanding of the gaming rules because they determine whether a player wins or not.
With money on the line, one best be prepared for the gaming otherwise he or she will never enjoy playing a game. It's a good idea to check out how the casino business works in general, and be better equipped to understand all the rules and regulations that go along with playing online games. Click here for more info.
Blackjack is a strategy game that can be played online or offline. The game is best played online because many casinos that offer this game also offer a detailed playing guide. Gameplay starts with placing the bet. That is followed by clicking on 'deal' to set the game rolling. The next step is playing your hand. You can stand, hit, or double down. When offered a pair, you can decide to double down instead.
The game roulette is mainly based on luck. There is a spinning wheel, and the player seeks to bet that the wheel stops on certain numbers. Roulette is a classic casino game that can be played online or offline. Unlike blackjack, roulette is easy to play. The player keeps betting by placing the bet on the numbers, red or black areas. The game stops when the dealer says 'no more bets'.
This is the other classic online game. Craps is played using dice. The bet is on the outcome of a throw. Craps is also more about luck than strategy. To understand craps, it is recommended that you watch people play first. There are different ways through which a player can win in this game.
With these and other online games, the emphasis is on understanding gameplay before playing. Where possible, a player should start with free games rather than by vetting real money.

Why should you pick the "Padre Elite Team" to find your perfect property? They are the #1 team on South Padre Island (SPI) but these are the reasons we think we are the right choice for you:
Representation…The Padre Elite Team, previously just Alta Monroe & Gayle Hood, now has two buyer's agents; Jules Wilk and Laurie Howell who have been chosen to represent our buyers. For you, as a buyer, it means you have representation tailored just for you without any doubt about a conflict of interest.
Four & Two for the Price of One…Since there are 4 licensed agents plus two assistants on our team, we are able to provide exceptional service for you. When one of us is tied up, the other one is there to back us up. Our assistants help us keep all the mounds of paperwork & detail in order. You may hear from several of us, Alta, Gayle, Jules, Laurie, Grace or Carlos.
Negotiations…Because of our years of experience in real estate, we feel our ability to help you in the negotiation process is superior to trying to "wing" it on your own. Gayle & Alta both hold the CPN certification, "Certified Professional Negotiators." These skills are important not only in securing the highest sales price for your property but also for working the contract from the offer through closing. There are many items to negotiate such as price, repairs, closing date, possession, seller's net proceeds, etc.
Critique All Documents…Real Estate in Texas is constantly changing. There are many addenda and notices that must accompany a purchase contract, in addition to the legal requirements of the purchase contract. We are current with our continuing education to be sure we are up to date on the latest changes. When we prepare an offer for you on a property to you & get an acceptance of that offer, we confirm that all these documents are correctly provided and we make sure that you are protected in the best way possible.
Monitor Your Deal Closely Through Closing…Once we have an executed contract submitted to the title company, The Padre Elite Team monitors the progress of tasks and timelines stipulated by the contract to ensure requirements are met and the process flows smoothly to closing. Action items such as the termination option period deadline, seller's disclosure, appraisal, inspection, resale certificate, survey, etc., must be completed in accordance with the contract.
Educated & Involved…The Padre Elite Team takes more continuing education (MCE) classes than required by the Texas Real Estate Commission. Alta has been a broker for 40 years so she is grandfathered & isn't required to take MCE credits. She takes them anyway. Gayle has been in real estate for over 24 years; Jules,14 years. Laurie has over 1 year but has 2 mentors on the team.
We have earned numerous designations. Alta holds GRI, RSPS, CRS, CPN designations. Gayle holds CLHMS (Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist), ePro, SFR, CPN designations. Jules holds the CLHMS designation, ePro & ABR. Laurie already holds the GRI designation!
Being involved in our community is important to us. Networking on a local, state, & national levelmakes a huge difference in how informed we are about issues in real estate. It benefits us & our clients.
Alta is a 2017 director on the SPI Chamber of Commerce, 2014 TAR TREPAC (Texas Real Estate Political Action Committee) Trustee for South Region 11, 2011 REALTOR® of the Year, 2010 SPIBOR President, received the 2012 SPI Chamber Director's Award and now serves as chair of the Governmental Affairs committee for the SPI Chamber, the SPIBOR MLS Committee, & graduate of Leadership Laguna Madre Class VII.
Gayle is the 2017 director of the Port Isabel Chamber of Commerce & 2016 Past Chairman of that Board, 2015 & 2012 President of the South Padre Island Board of REALTORS®(SPIBOR), 2013 REALTOR® of the Year, 2013 & 2014 Treasurer SPIBOR, 2013 MLS Committee Chair, & has served on the SPIBOR Membership Committee for years.
Jules serves as Secretary on the SPI Board of REALTORS® for 2015 to 2017. She also has served on the SPI Board of REALTORS® Education Committee from 2013 to 2017 and on the Board of Directors for Walk for Women, Inc. As a graduate of the Leadership Laguna Madre Class XIII, she has served on their steering committee for 4 years and chaired same one year.
Laurie is new to the real estate industry but has already proven to be as professional & educated as some that have been REALTOR® for years. She has earned her reputable GRI designation in record time and the RSPS designation. We are proud to have her on our team! She serves on 2016 SPI Board of REALTOR® Education Committee & on the UTRGV College of Sciences Advisory Board
We also reach out on a state & national level to attend TAR, NAR, and RE/MAX Conferences to extend our education and networking opportunities. Gayle & Alta are major investors in TREPAC & RPAC. These are the organizations that review all the bills coming through the Texas Legislature and Congress in D.C. They look for real estate issues so we can protect our clients and their property rights. You can now contribute as an individual through the Voice of Texas to TREPAC.
RE/MAX Network, Performance & Awards…The Padre Elite Team is part of the RE/MAX network. RE/MAX agents average 3 times more production. RE/MAX 1st Choice in SPI is no exception. Our office closed over $77 MIL in gross sales in 2016, $65 MIL in 2015, $60 MIL in 2014 and $42,MIL in 2013. The Padre Elite Team sold 100 properties for over $26 MIL in 2016, 65 properties for $15 MIL in 2015, 43 properties for $15 MIL in 2014, & 41 properties for $12 MIL. 2017 will be even better! Our team has consistently achieved the RE/MAX 100% Club award since 2012, Platinum Club in 2016 & RE/MAX Top 500 Agents Award in Texas 3 yrs in a row. Alta & Gayle even hold the RE/MAX Hall of Fame award. When you hear agents talk about how slow it is, know that there are agents on SPI that are very busy. And, it isn't just SPI, it is Port Isabel, Laguna Vista, Bayview and the entire Laguna Madre Area.
What does ALL of this mean for you? By choosing the Padre Elite Team, you have the best possible REALTOR® for your real estate needs. Check us out on www.PadreEliteTeam.com.

The one question founders have asked me in my {volunteer} role successfully sponsoring 350+ startups into Microsoft BizSpark is why Microsoft declined their startup. Sometimes the applicant will wait weeks only to get declined; sometimes it takes mere minutes.
Nearly always the founder/applicants are shocked, hurt, frustrated: Can't Microsoft see what a great startup we are? Don't they care?
Well, they do and they don't. Let me explain.
Let's assume you meet BizSpark's qualifications. And, let's assume you're not a development shop, custom software business or something else that's not a software for-profit startup.
The key question is, do you look like a startup? Do you walk, talk and quack like a startup? Is it blindingly obvious you are a startup bringing to market commercial software?
If it's not, then do what you have to do to make it so before you apply to BizSpark.
The people at Microsoft who decide if you're going to get into BizSpark are not mindreaders. They need to see you spelling out things for them and the rest of the world.
The way I think of it is there's some poor sap in Seattle, sitting all day long in front of a Windows PC, who has the unenviable job of:
- Screening out all the XBox kiddies who apply because they want free software,
- Screening out all the consultants, developers, and oddballs who want free software,
- Pushing the approve button after a 30-second reviewing your startup's site — or not.
Why don't they spend the tens of minutes needed to click through each and every part of your site, carefully analyzing each and every bit of your prose, then mulling all this information over so that like a spiritual awakening, they at last perceive your inner-startupness and grant you your due?
Because, like your prospective customers, they are not going to do that. Unless you can make a clear case for your startup and the software it is going to offer, you're going to get at most 30 seconds before getting a big fat no.
Here's some obvious things you should do on your startup's index page to qualify:
- Explain what you're bringing to market and why: "Acme [or whatever your company's name is] is a startup building [whatever you software is named] for the [whatever market/industry you're in] that [your key differentiator and your software's main claim to fame]. Yes, use the word startup.
- Fill in, "The X founders have Y years of experience in industry/market z and have founded this startup to bring software A to market because [fill in the blank]. Or whatever is your story why you are founding a startup and why you're going to be successful. Make yourself credible.
In other words, don't be shy: tell the world (and Microsoft) why you've launched a startup, what your software will do and why anyone but especially the people in a your market or industry should care. And just like every other real company with a web site put your name, physical address and phone in the footer, and have a page about the founders listing real people.
It's easy as a startup founder to get completely wrapped up in your startup — and completely lose perspective. No. One. Cares. Until you clearly explain what's in it for them, and make a public commitment to what you are building. Then, maybe, they (and Microsoft) will keep reading your site. Who knows, they may actually take a step that leads to a sale, whether that sale is for $10 a month or $10,000 a month or more.
If you clearly spell out what your software will do and who you are and why you're going to build a startup to make that software real, then your odds of getting approved are greatly improved – even without one of the
20 17 special codes I have been entrusted with by the BizSpark team.
If you don't do that, I won't sponsor you and probably neither will Microsoft.

CFTC whistle blower injured in London hit-and-run: Coincidence?
There a couple of youtube clips here of Bill Murphy of GATA (Gold Anti-Trust Action committee) Speaking to CFTC about manipulation in the precious metals market to a sadly dis-interested panel. Bill produces a rabbit out of the hat in the form of a whistle blower who strangely enough is the victim of a hit and run accident the following day.
The following are two clips of Bill in action that you might like to take a quick look at:
Clip 1
Clip 2
then follows this article on the GATA web site:
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
London metals trader Andrew Maguire, who warned an investigator for the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission in advance about a gold and silver market manipulation to be undertaken by traders for JPMorgan Chase in February and whose whistle blowing was publicized by GATA at Thursday's CFTC hearing on metals futures trading --
-- was injured along with his wife the next day when their car was struck by a hit-and-run driver in the London area.
According to GATA's contact with Maguire, board member Adrian Douglas, Maguire and his wife were admitted to a hospital overnight and released today and are expected to recover fully.
Maguire told Douglas by telephone today that his car was struck by a car careening out of a side road. When a pedestrian who witnessed the crash tried to block the other driver's escape, the other driver accelerated at the pedestrian, causing him to jump out of the way to avoid being hit. The other driver's car then struck two other cars in escaping. But the other driver was caught by police after a chase in which police helicopters were summoned.
We'll convey more information about the incident as it becomes available.
CHRIS POWELL, Secretary/Treasurer
Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee Inc.
So, is it just a coincidence or are the people at GATA starting to upset a few people?

The Computer Engineering Club at the University of Alberta hosted its second annual HACKed student hackathon at Startup Edmonton on January 31 & February 1, 2015. Teams competed in two streams, Hack Software and Hack Hardware, for more than $2,000 in prizes with a simple premise: 24 hours - build something incredible.
We chatted with Brittany Lamorie, VP Internal - University of Alberta Computer Engineering Club, about this year's event.
Q: How does a hackathon inspire students differently than school projects?
A: Most school projects will give you set guidelines and you don't get the opportunity to be creative with your projects. Even with the broad range of courses that students take, there are few opportunities to freely apply skills in different areas. A hackathon allows students to build whatever they want and gives them the opportunity to combine hardware and software as they see fit.
Q: What are some of the most memorable moments of this year's event?
A: This year, a large number of hardware projects were attempted. This led to several very cluttered workspaces, piled with all sorts of testing and measurement gear. Having people soldering and drilling all night was an interesting addition to what was largely a software competition last year.
Once again, the Microsoft Store provided us with a couple of XBOX One's. We used these to set up a Just Dance Kinect tournament. It was a fun way to get people up and moving at 1:00am, and was definitely a highlight of the night.
Q: What comes next for the teams, products & ideas?
A: We hope to see some other cool projects out of the teams involved, or the ideas develop further into marketable products. While we hope to have kick-started the development of some fantastic products, the future of the teams and their projects is up to them.
Some of the HACKed participants will show off their projects at DemoCamp 27on February 10, 2015 at CCIS 1-160 on the University of Alberta campus. Join us for real product demos (7 minutes and no slides!) from local startups, HACKed and MADJAM participants.
DemoCamp brings together developers, creatives, entrepreneurs and investors to share what they're working on for immediate feedback from the community. DemoCamp is a great way to connect with Edmonton's growing startup community - everyone is welcome!

Federal Bureau of Investigation's Foreign Language Translation Program Follow-Up
Audit Report 05-33
July 2005
Office of the Inspector General
The FBI's linguists play a critical role in developing effective counterterrorism and counterintelligence information. Linguists are the first line of analysis for information collected in a language other than English. For example, linguists must sort through thousands of hours of intercepted telephone conversations to identify pertinent material. The value of this information is often subtle because the parties involved may suspect they are being monitored. Linguists also must be able to recognize coded words or cryptic implications of a conversation. This requires high standards of language proficiency and cultural knowledge. Reviewing the vast amounts of audio information collected presents significant management challenges for the FBI, including prioritizing the workload and balancing limited resources.
Evolution of Foreign Language Program
Our July 2004 audit report described the significant evolution of the FBI's Foreign Language Program from a decentralized operation to one that was more centralized at FBI Headquarters. At the time of that audit, the Language Services Section (LSS) at FBI Headquarters managed the FBI's growing language translation program, which used more than 1,200 linguists stationed across the United States in 52 FBI field offices and Headquarters.
Our report also described how the Foreign Language Program had experienced a large influx of funding since September 11, 2001, increasing from $21.5 million in fiscal year (FY) 2001 to slightly over $66 million in FY 2004. The number of linguists also grew from 883 in FY 2001 to 1,214 as of April 2004. According to the FBI, as of April 2004 it had hired linguists at the maximum rate that its funding allowed.
Foreign Language Program Workload and Unreviewed Material Statistics
At the same time, the FBI's electronic surveillance collection in languages primarily related to counterterrorism activities increased dramatically — by 45 percent when comparing total collection in FY 2003 to total collection in FY 2001. The FBI expected translation growth rates in these languages to increase by at least 15 percent annually.
Our July 2004 audit found that the FBI's collection of material requiring translation had outpaced its translation capabilities, and the FBI could not translate all the foreign language counterterrorism and counterintelligence material it collected. As of the first quarter of FY 2004, the FBI reported that nearly 24 percent of ongoing FISA counterintelligence and counterterrorism intercepts were not monitored. According to the LSS official who prepared this information, during the first quarter of FY 2004 the FBI only had linguist capacity to review 76 percent of the intercepts collected. The official stated that the FBI reviewed all the counterterrorism information it collects, but not all counterintelligence information.
With respect to unreviewed audio material, the FBI maintained statistics only on the backlog for counterterrorism FISA cases and only by case, not by language. In addition, the FBI stated that its data could not be used reliably to determine the precise amount of unreviewed material that needed to be translated because of the imprecision of the translation workload reporting process and the FBI digital collection systems' inability to filter unintelligible audio and modem tones, which do not require translation. However, the FBI's statistics indicated that, as of April 2004, 4,086 hours of FISA recordings in counterterrorism cases were unreviewed.
In addition, the July 2004 audit report calculated the number of hours of unreviewed counterterrorism and counterintelligence audio in languages that the FBI classifies as traditionally associated with counterterrorism and counterintelligence. While recognizing limitations of this calculation, our analysis of the FBI's data in our July 2004 audit indicated that since September 11, 2001, more than 119,000 hours of audio in languages traditionally associated with counterterrorism cases had not been reviewed. Additionally, we found that more than 370,000 hours of audio in languages traditionally associated with counterintelligence activities had not been reviewed.9
Because the FBI did not maintain statistical records distinguishing this unreviewed material by specific language or type of case, we could not precisely determine which unreviewed material was associated with counterintelligence cases and which was associated with counterterrorism cases. FBI Foreign Language officials told the OIG that most of the material we reported as unreviewed in our July 2004 report was associated with counterintelligence cases.
Factors Contributing to the Increasing Amount of Unreviewed Material
In our July 2004 report, we attributed the FBI's backlog of unreviewed counterterrorism and counterintelligence material to an insufficient number of linguists, as well as limitations in the FBI's translation information technology systems.
We found that the FBI had difficulty in filling its critical need for additional contract linguists. Although the FBI received many applications, the FBI estimated that the contract linguist vetting process eliminated over 90 percent of the applicants processed for hiring.10 For those applicants who passed the vetting process and were hired, we found that the applicant processing cycle took approximately 13 months.
In addition to hiring difficulties, our audit determined that the FBI's digital collection systems had limited storage capacity and that audio sessions were sometimes deleted to make room for new incoming audio sessions. Although sessions were automatically deleted in a set order, we found that unreviewed sessions were sometimes included in the material deleted, especially in offices with a high volume of translation work. Three of eight offices we tested had sessions related to Al Qaeda that potentially were deleted by the system before linguists had reviewed them.
Timely Translation of Work and Quality Control
According to FBI officials, at the time of our audit the FBI's stated expectation was that counterterrorism FISA audio should be reviewed within 24 hours of interception. In addition, FBI policy required Al Qaeda FISA audio to be reviewed within 12 hours of interception. However, we found that during April 2004 36 percent of intercepted Al Qaeda FISA audio sessions forwarded to the Language Services Translation Center at FBI Headquarters for translation were not even received within 12 hours.
Our audit also examined the FBI's Quality Control Program for linguists, which was designed to ensure that the work of linguists was reviewed periodically for accuracy. We found that the FBI was not in full compliance with standards for required reviews for newly hired linguists, as well as annual reviews for permanent and contract linguists with over one year of experience.
Our audit report contained 18 recommendations to help improve the FBI's Foreign Language Program, including:
The FBI generally was receptive to the audit's recommendations and agreed to take corrective action.
This follow-up review, conducted in March and April 2005, assessed the FBI's progress since our July 2004 report in responding to our recommendations and in addressing the volume of unreviewed counterterrorism and counterintelligence audio material (backlog) that it collects in its National Foreign Intelligence Program.11
In the sections that follow, we provide the results of our follow-up review, first examining the extent of unreviewed counterterrorism and counterintelligence material.

In which Roman Reigns is made to look really strong.
We're under a week away from what's probably my favourite WWE event of the year, but at the time of writing I can't even decide if I want to take the next morning off work to watch it.
Normally going into a Royal Rumble match there's a large enough degree of uncertainty about what's going to happen to keep it interesting – but in the company's latest mission to make Roman Reigns look like an unstoppable superhuman it's verging on the incredible. And not in a good way.
For the first time ever, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship will be defended in the actual Royal Rumble match. Unlike previous years where the winner gets the World title shot at Wrestlemania, this year they've decided to lob in the actual belt instead.
At the 1992 Royal Rumble, Ric Flair won the vacant World title thanks to some screwery involving Sid Justice, but this year there's going to be a defending champion; it's an awful lot of pressure on Roman Reigns in both kayfabe and real-life terms.
The odds. The stacking. The againstness. The adversity. The overcoming: all things which we're being treated to in the story of Reigns' upcoming title defence. And while that worked for a little bloke like Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania XXX, I don't know why Reigns has ever been portrayed as the underdog when he's chiselled from granite and one of the most powerful men in the game today.
Forcing him into the Rumble with his title on the line – you can thank a returning Vince McMahon for that, who at 70 years of age deserves a big hand for bumping around like he has in the last few weeks – is a compelling enough storyline to keep me interested, but what happens at the end of the night is where it really gets interesting.
The way I see it, the Rumble's going to go one of two ways; one of them only slightly less offensive than the other.
If Reigns retains
If Roman Reigns is going to make history by defending his Royal Rumble title, then for the sake of credibility he needs not to be in the first five, or even ten entries. The match has been won from an early position before – Shawn Michaels won it from the number one spot in 1995, but wrestled for less than 40 minutes. Chris Benoit won the Royal Rumble in 2004, clocking in a more impressive 61 minutes. But both men were a lot more capable workers than Reigns is now.
Not that any of that matters, because this is Superman we're talking about. For Reigns not to be booed out of the building in winning his second consecutive Royal Rumble match – for all the marbles this time – the order of entry will be key; the later, the better. For the sake of believability – and of the WWE not ramming him down fans' throats for the second year in a row – Reigns must enter later if he's really going to win it all, despite it seeming like less of an achievement.
If Reigns loses
On the other hand, if it's decided that someone else will be walking out of the Rumble as world champion, the likely scenario seems to be that Reigns – on the verge of victory and achieving the impossible – will be screwed by some Authority…screwery.
With the McMahon family seething, as well as Triple H seeking revenge for Reigns' attack at TLC, we can expect even more of the deck-stacking as the Authority sends out stooge after stooge in an attempt to take out Reigns. Sheamus, Del Rio – even Bad News Barrett and Rusev who are sadly injured at last count – will be set to take out the champ as soon as possible.
Reigns, naturally, will overcome – but you can expect some last-minute tomfoolery to put down the champion if they decide not to go with Reigns as the champion heading out of the 2016 Rumble. Of course, that will be immediately remedied with a Wrestlemania main event against whoever does win that match – let's not pretend that Fastlane is important enough to see a title change – so Reigns fans need not despair if he does lose the title at the Royal Rumble.
So if Reigns does give up the prize, who can we expect to take the belt?
Sadly, there are whispers that if you want the job done right, you've got to do it yourself – which is why it could be Triple H closing out the night as Royal Rumble winner 2016. Outside of that, the usual suspects would be Brock Lesnar, or…actually, there isn't really anyone else is there?
Last Man Standing
Who would I like to see win? Dean Ambrose. Kevin Owens. Two hugely popular wrestlers, so popular in fact that WWE have already taken measures to ensure it won't be either of them – by booking them opposite each other in a Last Man Standing match for the Intercontinental Title. So bizarre is this booking, in fact, that it's the champion Ambrose who issued the challenge rather than the prizefighter Owens.
So with those two outside hopes swiftly taken care of, it's going to be a matter of how badly WWE wants to get Roman Reigns, supreme champion, over at the Rumble. It's strange that they can't even wait for that Mania moment to ensure that Reigns gets the glory – or at least enough of the rub to get some sympathy via villainous interference – but I suppose we'll see what they have in store for us.
Reasons to watch the Rumble
Despite the lack of intrigue this year surrounding the main event, there's always a reason to tune into the Royal Rumble match – the surprise returns and debuts. And with the various members of Bullet Club all but confirmed to make their WWE debuts over the next few weeks, it's going to be well worth tuning in to see which of the talented performers steps out onto the stage in Orlando, Florida, this Sunday night.

The Mystery
I was taught this in a workshop by Brian Finnegan. The origin of the name is a bit of a tale (one I'm not sure how much of was made up… you know musicians).
He apparently heard this tune on a voicemail message somebody left him while they were in a session and liked it so much that he learned it. To this day he has no idea who wrote it, what its original title was, or even who it was who left him the voicemail in the first place, so he called it the Mystery Jig.

Update: While the following chart has gone viral, a more careful search has turned up significant questions about its veracity. See Politifact for more details. It is worth noting that two studies consulted by Politifact (one by the Institute for Policy Studies and the other by the Economic Policy Institute) confirm that the number for the United States is in the ballpark: CEO to worker pay ratios peaked above 500 to 1 around 2000, and currently are only 325 to 1 (in 2010).
From the blog Sociological Images:
From Catholic Social Teaching:
Other factors too enter into the assessment of a just wage: namely, the effective contribution which each individual makes to the economic effort, the financial state of the company for which he works, the requirements of the general good of the particular country…and finally the requirements of the common good of the universal family of nations…
Mater et Magistra (Mother and Teacher) #71 John Paul II, 1981
Some of these factors do not seem to have been taken into account when setting CEO salaries that yield a 475:1 ratio.

This post is about making cars, but it's more about how the recruiting process works.
In a former life, I was a matchmaker for the automotive industry: I spent time with students who made cars and worked hard to woo employers to recruit them. I learned what a dynamometer does (measuring force or power), observed the power of reverse engineering (always good to start with the end in mind), and why the economic hardships of the "big three" are huge news (there are hundreds of other supplier companies, known as OEMs--or original equipment manufacturers who the trickle down cripples as well). It was a great experience.
Several years ago, I accompanied a team of these students to the annual Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Formula Racing Competition in Michigan where they subjected their pride and joy--a car designed and constructed in less than six months--to rigorous review and testing. They had reason to be proud, as they came from a small school with less than 400 students, had no automotive engineering department, and were competing with over 120 entrants, many of whom hailed from engineering meccas such as Georgia Tech, Texas A & M, and Cornell.
To our collective delight, they were one of a handful of teams picked for the design finals--over five hours of exhaustive interviewing by a team of judges (as I recall, it did not end until midnight).
Success came with a price tag: Participating in the design finals meant that they couldn't attend a Big Three recruiting reception. So I struck out on my own to meet the recruiting team and to market my champions. I brought resumes and information on their accomplishments. But the recruiter couldn't have been less interested:
Translation: Your students don't have much of a chance. (Unless they know someone.)
I worked in Career Services for eight years, and this response was not unusual. But I did find it to be particularly disturbing, especially given at least one of their "core schools" was not participating in the automotive competition, was based in a major metropolitan area, and had very few students interested in moving to Michigan. But, there it was...nonetheless. The impetus was on my students to take creative steps to attract employer attention, otherwise, employment prospects with this employer was unlikely at best. My students finished in the top 20 for the competition.
Today, I'm watching the school I once worked at become a national leader as the "Big Three" company emerges from bankruptcy. I'm proud of the continued strength of Formula Racing on my old campus: Three years ago, the school founded their own hybrid Formula Racing competition. It's been so successful, that Texas A & M no longer competes at the SAE Formula Racing competition--they only participate in the hybrid challenge.
I visited the school recently and saw most recent hybrid car showcased in the lobby. Less than ten miles away, the former showroom for the local dealer of the "Big Three" company is actively enjoying a second life--as a dance studio. "Big Three" dealer didn't even take the logos off the building.
I see a moral for the future of recruiting and automotive innovation here, do you?

Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, recognized today Kindergarten to College as a finalist in this year's Innovations in American Government Awards competition. These government initiatives represent the dedicated efforts of city, state, and federal governments, and address such policy issues as economic development, environmental and community revitalization, public health, equal access to education, emergency preparedness, and health care. These programs were selected by a cohort of policy experts, researchers, and practitioners. A full list of the Top 25 and finalist programs is available at http://ash.harvard.edu.
Kindergarten to College (K2C) is the first universal and automatic children's savings program in the United States. The idea behind Kindergarten to College is relatively simple: to help families save earlier and to save more for post-secondary education by removing barriers and providing incentives to spur savings. The program, which establishes a college savings account for every kindergarten student enrolled in San Francisco public schools, has opened more than 18,630 accounts since it began almost four years ago. Families have invested more than $1,000,000 of their own money, and 50% of contributing families are in the National School Lunch Program earning less than $40,000 a year for a family of four. All accounts are held at Citibank.
"K2C has made college savings a reality for families at all income levels in San Francisco," said José Cisneros, Treasurer of the City and County of San Francisco. "I am grateful for the recognition by the Ash Center at Harvard. I know families in San Francisco are struggling, and I am proud that we have created a pathway for college attendance for our students."
K2C is run by the San Francisco Treasurer's Office of Financial Empowerment (SF OFE) in partnership with the Mayor's Office and the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD). Program leadership, along with other programs named as finalists, will be making presentations to the National Selection Committee of the Innovations in American Government Awards, with the winner to be announced this summer. The presentations will be streamed live starting at 1:30 pm EDT on May 20 at http://www.hks.harvard.edu/live.
"These programs represent the forefront in government innovation, and a cross-section of issues of the twenty-first century, including renewable energy, community revitalization, and public-private partnerships," said Stephen Goldsmith, director of the Innovations in Government program at the Ash Center. "They demonstrate that efforts to make government work better can stem not only from executive orders and statewide initiatives, but also small community programs and private citizens on social media."
"The Ash Center is proud to recognize these programs and hopes that they will become a vital part of our ongoing efforts to create a community of innovators," said Tony Saich, director of the Ash Center. "Each Top 25 program can become a blueprint for similar enterprises at all levels of government, inspiring leaders around the country to help improve their communities with opportunities for dialogue and replication."
The Innovations in American Government Awards was created by the Ford Foundation in 1985 in response to widespread pessimism and distrust in government's effectiveness. Since its inception, over 500 government innovations across all jurisdiction levels have been recognized and have collectively received more than $22 million in grants to support dissemination efforts. Such models of good governance also inform research and academic study around key policy areas both at Harvard Kennedy School and academic institutions worldwide. Past winners have served as the basis of case studies taught in more than 450 Harvard courses and over 2,250 courses worldwide.

Poems. Pics. Pieces.
we are not to cry at 8 years old, sitting in the palm of a plastered leather chair, hair coated with vaseline, prepped for a perm, in a beauty shop that smells of aerosols, shampoo and fried hair
we are not to jump in pools attached to condominiums attached to yearly swimming passes, the lake on a hundred degree day, water, weeks after our scalp has been burned and the coils of our curls chemically straightened
we are not to play outside; in the dirt, on the street, with the boys, brothers, bait that will lure us away from innocence and purity
we are not to let hair grow out of skin in places purported to be unladylike, improper, unsanitary unfit for a woman
we are not to bare too much shoulder or thigh or stomach, skin lathered in coconut oil and cocoa butter
we are not to wear unkempt polish, islands of pastel slowly degrading on the face of fingernails that mothers swipe aggressively with cotton swabs soaked in ethyl acetate.
we are not to trust men, those who prowl the streets, those with flying hands and fleeting attention
we are to not talk or laugh or be too loud, on buses, on planes, in class, on trains
we are not to see beauty in ourselves, when media, magazines, our own men, deny us
we are not to visibly bear feelings, bear emotion, bear rage
we are to be
we are to be
we are to spend an eternity
fighting within
a cage,
that is constantly,
closing in,
fitting us to be,
There are books,
four or five of them
piled atop classics
on my dusty windowsill,
covering crumbs
at the bottom of my backpack,
laid open bare
for the eyes
of my wooden desk,
sitting quietly,
lips sealed,
hiding receipts as lost bookmarks.
There are books,
four of five of them
each unfinished,
in the same manner
that I have been unable,
to finish you.
to close
our book.
The Zebra out of Sea
At the place I always come back to, bare
brown skin exposed, showered
by splashing droplets of lake michigan,
from caps hitting the break wall.
My focus heightens
to the depths beneath the water.
I'm unable to see them, the zebra mussels.
But they make themselves known,
the lucidity,
the water.
Dreissena polymorpha. A whisper floats,
reaching the surface
the way oxygen bubbles escape the mouths of the fish below.
The pioneer in me peeks
under the layer of water,
a sea of mussels
stuck like bees to a hive,
covering the metal, the scraps,
all the detritus, resting on the lake floor.
How did you get here?
The same way you did. They sing in chorus,
by Ballast water,
in the belly of boats.
How did you get here?
I think of my people.
Us too, brought in the stomach of ships.
Bellies, boats, packed like sardines,
death forced down the nostrils
of people who had been kidnapped from land.
Bellies known for nourishing life,
this time,
created hollowed out caskets,
a black galaxy of death buried beneath the soils of America.
Zebra mussels.
Non native.
Wreaking havoc, causing massive ecological
and ecosystem damage,
damage that we have caused
they too would say,
invasive. Non native.
The pressure of a thousand atmospheres,
a million miles of archives,
propel me back to the surface,
unable to go further,
unable to dive deeper,
instead stretching for a space,
above the water,
where I can forget,
not delve,
not dive,
into history.
How did you get here?

Our Close Wake Up Call
Convent, Louisiana
What Do You Do If You're In An RV In A Tornado?
- If we CAN get away with the fifth wheel in time, we would pack up, hook up, and drive away from the weather. This would be if we had days or hours before the storm hit. However, if the winds are already really bad, we do not want to be towing the fifthwheel down the road, and we would need to be cautious of flooded areas or downed trees along our escape route.
- If we CAN'T get away with the fifth wheel before the weather hits, we would put the fifth wheel's slides in, point it into the wind, pack our essentials and the dogs in the truck, and drive just the truck to the nearest storm shelter.
- If we CAN'T get away, and no storm shelter is around (like in Picayune), we would pack into the truck, and sit there with our seat belts on.
Be Prepared
- If you don't have an escape plan, make one. Be sure you know your emergency exits in the RV.
- Make a list of what you would need to bring with you. If you can, pack these things in a "go" bag that can be grabbed at a moment's notice. (flashlights, rain ponchos, emergency blankets, water bottles, granola bars, phone chargers, first aid kit, etc.)
- Stay informed. Understand where you can get your reliable weather information from (i.e. a weather app, a website, radio station) and where tornado activity occurs (USTornados.com). Same goes for hurricanes. Learn how to understand radar maps.
- Follow all evacuation orders. Don't wait until the last minute to move. You're house is on wheels - but you still need time to get away, and chances are so are a lot of people. Leave sooner than later.

We started out with Rebecca's birthday. That kind of fell apart: I had one idea for a party that didn't see fruition, and I tried to coordinate another party with a friend but didn't follow through on it, so he assumed the event was canceled. Which, in practice, it was. I tried to make up for that with some interesting gifts, one particularly hard to retrieve, so I hope Rebecca felt special even if she's married to a procrastinator.
Mid-month was when we moved out of the East Isles apartment (above Tao Natural Foods) and into the Fulton apartment, half a mile from the pricey 50th & France shopping district. The move did not go smoothly: Rebecca underestimated the outlandish volume of property we've accrued, so it took two guys four hours, instead of one hour, to move it all into the truck. But they called a third guy, and we pitched in, so we got it all hustled into the Fulton apt. within 45 minutes.

'Saudi masterminding terror attacks against Iran'
A senior Iranian military commander says Saudi Arabia is masterminding terrorist attacks against the Islamic Republic by training and funding terror organizations.
Chief of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC)'s Ground Force Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour said Iran has arrested terrorists that confessed their affiliation to Saudi Arabia and others.
Pakpour said the Saudi kingdom is striving hard to make Iran insecure.
"Right now, countries like the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are engaged in organizing and equipping these groups but the reason why no (terrorist) act is committed is due to our preparedness."
On Monday, Army chief commander General Hamid Reza Pourdastan said two Daesh members infiltrated Iran's borders in March but they "were destroyed at the very beginning after entering the country."
Pakpour said, "We have intelligence about these terror groups and we will contain any move in its inception."
The IRGC, he said, will stage major military maneuvers code-named the Great Prophet (PBUH) in the southeastern parts of Iran.
The three-day drills will be held in the provinces of Sistan-and-Baluchestan, Kerman, South Khorasan and Hormozgan from April 12 to April 14.
According to the commander, the maneuver aims at maintaining the military preparedness of the IRGC to confront major security threats, such as terror attacks, and improve security in the region.
Packpour also underlined the importance of the role performed by the IRGC in Syria, stating that "if we do not fight the terrorists in Syria, we will have to fight them on our land."
Iran's Army has also deployed its Special Forces to Syria on an advisory mission, Pourdastan acknowledged.
The IRGC has "the main responsibility for advisory operations on the ground in Syria but as we are dealing with a proxy war and we have to boost our defense capabilities on a par with this situation and gain enough experience, we decided to send a number of our forces into the mission," he said.
"So they will be able to both play an advisory role and also later train the Iranian Army's rapid reaction forces," he added.
Pourdastan reiterated that the Iranian Special Forces are advised to have a monitoring role but they will defend themselves in case they come under attack.
The Iranian Army sent a number of its forces from the 65th airborne division to Syria in late March. The troops have been advising the Syrian army and the national defense forces against the foreign-backed terrorists in the northern province of Aleppo.
On Sunday, the Army suffered its first loss in Syria as one of its officers was killed during battles with Takfiri terrorists.
Mohsen Qitaslo fought within the ranks of Brigade 65 in the Iranian Army, known as the "brigade of green berets," the Tabnak news website said.

Her patients can expect to receive a thorough health intake, a complete physical exam and recommendations for lab testing to determine the root cause of their symptoms. Upon obtaining a comprehensive health history an individualized and specific treatment protocol will be prescribed. A treatment protocol may include any of the following modalities: clinical nutrition, botanical medicine, acupuncture, lifestyle counseling, IV vitamin therapies and/or pharmaceutical agents depending on the condition being treated.

Clitheroe have one hand on the trophy after winning their top of the table clash at Chatburn Road on Saturday with Settle in the Houldsworth Ribblesdale League.
Even Clitheroe's washout at Baxenden on Sunday, with Settle sitting out the latest round of fixtures, hardly improved their chances of upsetting the odds.
Indeed, Read have nudged into second place, though they have played a game more.
The champions' 35-run win means only a dramatic set of results in the remaining five matches will deny them a third-successive title.
Jack Dewhurst was the star with bat and ball as Clitheroe took the spoils, bouncing back from their Lancashire Cup semi-final defeat by Bootle.
Former skipper Neil Bolton top scored with 34, sharing a 66-run opening partnership with Bilal Ahmed, before the hosts hit trouble.
Dewhurst contributed 31 as Clitheroe finished on 160, with Andrew Davidson the pick of Settle's bowlers with 3-32.
Dewhurst then took over when Settle batted, finishing with 8-53 from 17 overs.
Tom Lord and Charlie Dewhurst claimed the remaining wickets.
Jordan Clark hit a half century and Andrew Rushton took 6-54 as Read beat Cherry Tree by 29 runs.
Earby's bid to beat the drop into Section B wasn't helped by defeat to Whalley, who boosted their own hopes of avoiding demotion, though they are in seventh spot, which would mean a play-off against second place in Section B.
Salesbury's promotion hopes were hit by defeat against rivals Padiham.
Kyle Marshall produced his own 'all-rounder of the day' contribution with 87 and 5-38 in Barnoldswick's 120-run crushing of Ribblesdale Wanderers.
All Senior League matches were washed out on Sunday.
On Saturday, Read are at Baxenden, Clitheroe host Oswaldtwistle Immanuel, Whalkley are at Settle, Ribblesdale make the trip to Brinscall and Salesbury are at Euxton.
On Sunday, Clitheroe are at Earby, Read entertain Settle, Whalley host Baxenden, Ribblesdale are at home to Edenfield and Salesbury host Brinscall.
