One of the best parts of covering families and kids is meeting wonderful families and kids who make this world a better place. I loved learning about Greenhill School junior Brandon A. Ryan for the story I did on five top draws for kids in local museums. It got to me, too, that Brandon, who says he had no personal relationship with the Holocaust, was just 15 when he started on his Eagle Scout project to construct the small but moving Garden of Remembrance and Tolerance outside the Dallas Holocaust Museum-Center for Education and Tolerance. Fifteen, after all, was the age that Anne Frank was when she died in a Nazi concentration camp. The museum has a moving display of 71 pictures from the personal collection of Anne's father on display on the inside of the museum and you can contemplate that pathos of promising lives cut short outside on a bench that Brandon arranged to have in his garden, which is always open and always free.
Brandon had a lot of wonderful help, particularly from then Greenhill classmates twins Austin and Bronsin Ablon who are now 19 and in college. The Ablon brothers designed, created and installed a steel sculpture called Coming Together which stands at the heart of the garden. I am also happy to report that Brandon, now 17, also knows how to have fun. He plays baseball and soccer and has an ongoing role as Hugo the Hornet, his school mascot, which delights the little kids who attend the games.
Here's a brief Q and A I did with Brandon:
What was your inspiration?
I've grown up pretty much my whole life at Greenhill School. I've been nurtured and sheltered in a community that is very accepting of all beliefs and cultures. I am an Irish Catholic and have no familial connection to the Holocaust. I have grown up at school with many Jews, many of have very close connection to the Holocaust, who have felt very strongly about it. Going back to my heritage, I have a close connection to another situation of oppression from the same time period. My great grandfather was an officer in the Irish revolution and much of my family was involved in the liberation of Ireland. When I got offered the job by the president of the Dallas Holocaust Museum, at the time Alice Murray, it was a very easy choice to accept the responsibility. There are so many people I care about who were affected by the Holocaust and that, coupled with my families' own struggle for freedom and equality, was my inspiration.
How do you feel about the project?
I am so happy to have had the opportunity to accomplish something so rewarding. Alongside what I said before about my inspiration, I will not neglect that I was very much looking for a challenge when I was searching for Eagle Scout projects. I did not want to just build another park bench or refurbish a swing set, as admirable and challenging as those tasks may be. I wanted to test myself and my ability to make something great. I accepted the offer at Alice Murray's birthday party, which I was attending with my mother, a close friend of Ms. Murray's, with little hesitation. I had no idea I was beginning a nine-month ordeal, and I had no idea how massive the final product would be. Now I am just happy that I was given the opportunity, and that I had so much support from Ms. Murray, the Dallas Holocaust Museum, my friends, and my family.
What surprised you most?
What surprised me most was how difficult it is to create something to benefit the city (and also how much dirt it takes to fill in a 20 by 40 foot piece of land). I had to get my proposal passed through the city Landmark Commission, because of the park's location in the Historic West End, and through Dallas Building Inspection. Both of these were especially tough for a 15-year-old who had no personal means of transportation besides his mother and whose only available time to meet with government agencies was during his lunch break. After weeks of filling out and submitting paperwork and meeting with many city planners, I had to propose the project to a neighborhood committee, which would decide whether the park would benefit the community. The committee was of eight people, and at one point three of the people were downright opposed to the idea, the main reason being that I was "an inexperienced kid who would probably do a bad job". It was very surprising for me to see just how much red tape there is to do the simplest of reconstructions.
What was the most challenging part?
As I mentioned before, it is tough to deal with government agencies and professional businesses when all you have going for you is a plan on paper and a handful of future donors. Most of the time I was not taken seriously or I was outright denied. Also, since the trees were planted in late July, they had to be hand watered every day for about a month, and that summer set heat records. Thankfully the next door architecture company, Corgan, was generous enough to allow me and the Holocaust Museum to use their water supply for our use.
What was the high point?
The high point was definitely at the end of the third work day. From the beginning, I had tried to time the project so that the work days would be during the spring or late winter. Since I had no idea what I was getting into when I made that plan, the work days kept getting pushed and pushed until they were literally in the hottest part of the year. The work days took place in late July. By the end of the third work day,the asphalt had been removed, the granite had been poured, the trees had been planted, and I had the darkest tan in my whole life. The garden, save the artwork, was complete. In the 100+ degree heat, I finally saw the planning since the new year become a reality. I could not believe the fact that I had actually organized the construction of a garden and that I was able to do it with so many of my best friends.

Scotland interim head coach Scott Johnson has stated that his side are happy to be an unknown quantity in this year's Six Nations.
Scotland interim head coach Scott Johnson has stated his side are happy to be an unknown quantity in this year's Six Nations.
Johnson has taken over the role following the sacking of Andy Robinson last November, following a shock 21-15 defeat to Tonga.
With a new coaching staff led by Johnson and former England international Dean Ryan, the former Wales boss says his side will focus on themselves rather than the fixture list and the history of their predecessors, who have not won at Twickenham for 30 years.
"We can't control the draw – it's decided that we're going to Twickenham and it's our objective to be ready. We know the size of the task ahead," said Johnson.
"I don't think this group of players are old enough to remember that [last win at Twickenham.] History is somebody else's – we have to create our own so we will disregard what has happened in the past and focus on now.
"We bring a bit of an unknown quality. They are not really sure what we are about, so I think that unknown factor is a good thing. We're under the radar and the poor little boy on the block and we are happy to play that role. But rest assured when it comes to game time, we might not be a poor little boy.
"We can look elsewhere as much as we like but the reality is if we don't get our part right it's not worth turning up. We have looked at the development of the England squad and management [over the last 12 months], but we have to focus on what we do before think about the opposition.
"Despite what people think, we are going to turn up at Twickenham. We're not cancelling it – we're coming and keen to go."
Commenting on the end of the previous regime, Johnson highlighted positive aspects in the defeats to South Africa and New Zealand, rather than focusing on the defeat against Tonga.
"Everyone focuses on the Tonga game, but we did some good things against formidable opposition in South Africa and New Zealand," added Johnson.
"We didn't get the result against Tonga but the world order is changing – these Polynesian sides are now quality rugby sides."
Johnson will lead the new Scottish coaching group alongside Ryan, with the new coach expressing admiration for his maturity and leadership.
"It was important for me to have somebody with maturity to go with our young coaching team and I'm really glad Dean [Ryan] accepted the role," stated Johnson.
"He works both sides of the fence and he is a really good signing for us because he knows how to control a room and brings that maturity.
Both Johnson and potential captain Kelly Brown admitted they were excited about Sean Maitland, the former Crusaders winger who is eligible to play for Scotland through his father. Both acknowledged the new winger's exceptional pace, with Johnson rejecting any notion that Maitland would become a "token" Scotland international.
"It's been really exciting to come into the squad and see all the young guys and new players," said Brown.
"One guy in particular is Sean Maitland – he has got some serious wheels and if we can give him a little bit of space it will be really exciting.
"Everyone thinks Sean has come in under the grandparent rule, but his father is Scottish and has great pride in being a Scotsman," clarified Johnson.
"This kid has proud Scottish hertiage – it's not just a tokenism and he would be offended if anyone questioned that.
"You can cast aspersion at some people, but certainly not Sean and that's why we value him. He's certainly got some shoes and if he can get the ball, that will be nice to have."

Want to give yourself a little advantage next time you're in the boat throwing worms? The Roboworm Zipper Shakin Worms combine the popular ribbed Zipper design with a thinner bodied worm made for shaking. The pronounced ribs cause bass to hold onto the bait longer and creates a larger profile without the additional weight, while the thin, flat tail imparts the characteristic shaky action. Roboworm uses robotic technology that pours worms in the exact same manner as traditional 'hand poured' worms. The 'hand pour' technique produces super soft plastic that is ultra responsive and also allows Roboworm to create the true, clear color combinations they are known for.
Designed for Texas-rigging and shaking in front of hungry bass, the 5" model is great for situations when a smaller presentation is called for and the 6" worm will attract bass when you need a big bite. You're sure to put more fish in the boat when you fish with the Roboworm Zipper Shakin Worm!

My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.
Verse: For he has regarded the humility of his servant.
IN THOSE DAYS, Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also. And after some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Come, let us return and visit the brethren in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are." And Barnabas wanted to take with them John called Mark. But Paul thought best not to take with them one who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work. And there arose a sharp contention, so that they separated from each other; Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus, but Paul chose Silas and departed, being commended by the brethren to the grace of the Lord. And he went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.

It is one of the seven deadly sins but, as Gordon Gekko says, greed is good. Researchers in Switzerland recently found a moderate level of greed is favorable for society – or at least, the researchers' model society.
Common wisdom leads us to believe greed is bad, that self-interest does not work for the greater good of a society or group. In fact, that is exactly what game theory tells us. In a public goods game, where optional contribution to the common good improves the well-being of participants, greed is problematic. Game theory predicts a free-loader problem where participants stop contributing because they will reap the rewards through others' contributions. The outcome is known as the tragedy of commons: eventually, no one contributes.

*Your pronation type is determined by the natural motion your feet apply throughout your running gait. When you pronate your foot rolls from either the outer edge, inner edge or not at all. If your foot rolls to the outer edge when you run, you are an underpronator, if it rolls to the inner edge you are a overpronator and if your foot doesn't roll at all you are a neutral or stable runner.

Hi Xia,
In this drawing, it looks like you draw with a hard edge 100% opacity brush, then you make it bigger and somehow it turns gray without clicking on a different color, how did you do this?
and how did you smooth off that shading you did so easily? i didnt even see you switch to a soft edge brush?
ah its too fast! can you please explain this it would help me so much.
- January 17, 2009 at 11:36 PM
- XIA said...
snow> Tips: If you want you digital drawing or sketch to look more like pencil, then do not use 100% black. Use only in between 75% to 90% depending on how dark you want it. Then I start of rough using 30% 50% opacity, then 100% opacity. For sketching alone, you are right, I only use hard edge.
Then when I lay down big block of value (different layer, but then I use soft edge ERASER. :)

: Hi Deb,
: Thanks for your helpful infomation.
: Can you explain what an S trap is exactly?? I am a bit confused about this.
: My plumber said it will be ok to cut into the above tub drain b/c it is already vented-therefore the new sink drain will be vented once it is tied into the tub drain?? HE plans on adding a y connector and tieing in a new sink drain w/ inch and a half pvc. Is this wrong? HE is a licensed plumber so I am really confused now.

: thanks in advance,
I'm no plumber, but ya he's wrong! Deb knows her stuff, I'd get a new plumber....

Eye Color
From Thomas Jefferson Encyclopedia
There seems to be no concensus on Thomas Jefferson's eye color. They were variously described by family, friends, employees, and others as blue, gray, "light," hazel, and combinations thereof.
Contemporary Accounts
1801-1809. Joseph Delaplaine, visitor. "...his eyes are light..."
1806-1821. Edmund Bacon, overseer at Monticello. "He had blue eyes..."
1814. Francis Calley Grey, visitor. "...light gray eyes..."
1823. Alexander Hugh Holmes Stuart, visitor. "His eyes were light blue or gray..."
1824. Daniel Webster, visitor to Monticello. "His eyes are small, very light..."
Secondhand Accounts
1858. Randall, Life. "His full, deep set eyes, the prevailing color of which was light hazel (or flecks of hazel on a groundwork of grey)..." (p. 34)
1871. Randolph, Domestic Life. "...his eye, hazel..."
1948. Malone, vol. 1. "His eyes were hazel, though often described in later years as blue..." (p. 48)

Get the Look: (Untitled)
I am beyond excited for Jonathan Parker's new satirical indie comedy (Untitled), about a brooding avant-garde composer who falls for a trendy NYC gallerist, which stars Adam Goldberg and Marley Shelton — watch the trailer here. Seeing as the plot is set in the quirky world of contemporary art and music, it's no surprise that there's lots of modern design to drool over. The sets look downright hip and are full of furnishings that bridge the gap been art and décor. Many are also furnishings readily available to you! So let's see how you can get the look of this exciting flick.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The Utah Department of Transportation held an open house on Wednesday at the town hall in Huntington. The purpose of the meeting was to gather comments on the proposed widening of State Route 10 from Huntington to Poison Springs Bench. At the open house a large map of the proposed road as it is now and also including the proposed improvements was available for the public to examine. Comments and concerns were written directly on the map at the point of reference. Written comments were taken as well as oral comments. Comments are still being accepted by mail. The draft plan is the result of technical work and review of information from property owners and local officials.
Plans for the project include a northbound passing lane for the entire five mile length of the project. A southbound passing lane for 4.25 miles of the project. A four-foot paved plus six-foot graded shoulders will also be part of the improvements. Motorists on SR-10 experience travel delays and unsafe conditions. The engineering analysis for the project concluded that SR-10 lacks acceptable passing opportunities. Motorists are spending 85 percent of their time on this stretch of SR-10 following slow-moving vehicles. The majority of delays are from the large number of heavy trucks using the highway.
Existing narrow shoulders and steep slopes along the side of the road do not provide a safe vehicle recovery area for motorists. This area is called a "clear zone." UDOT will obtain and comply with conditions of permits. They will erect fencing around sensitive features during construction to prevent impacts. UDOT will also use retaining walls, guard rails, steeper cut fill slopes and head walls where applicable to reduce and avoid impacts. They will also document historic sites like the Cleveland Canal which was build between 1885 and 1889 and the North Ditch which was built in 1879.
UDOT will also monitor for the presence of burrowing owls. They will work to control construction impacts using the best management practices. Noise abatement is not one of the proposed projects and two landowners specifically along the route could experience increased traffic noise.
Some environmental impacts are expected with the project such as the removal of 920 feet of historic SR-10. The replacement of the culvert over the historic Cleveland Canal and the extension of the culvert on the historic North Ditch are also part of the project. Approximately a half an acre of wetlands/stream areas will be impacted. Travelers will also experience the impacts of the actual construction process.
H.G. Kunzler, project manager said, "Letters were sent to all residents adjacent to the project and we met with them individually. These letters were sent out at the beginning of the project. We met with all who voiced concerns. Residents were also notified of the open house by mail. We will analyze all of the comments given here tonight and also the comments received by mail. We will accept comments until Aug. 31. We will take the comments and address them. When we finalize the draft environmental document we will incorporate any modifications. UDOT addresses each question or comment.
"The project could go out for bid in late fall or winter, but it will most likely be in the spring of 2003. The funds for this project will come from federal highway funds," said Kunzler.
Speed studies will also be conducted along the route to help determine the appropriate speed for the route. One resident expressed concern over speed along the intersection where the Cleveland Road takes off and the reservoir traffic and coal truck traffic all enter the highway. He said he has seen a lot of accidents at that intersection involving distracted drivers.
The project will be a Level III project which will fall under a categorical exclusion. The environmental study has taken place but with a minimal disturbance expected, this project will not need a full blown NEPA study. These exclusions allow a project to get up and running in a timely manner without delays.
Some residents who live along the West Airport Road are excited about the project which will construct a turning lane so they will safely be able to access their road when returning from a trip to Price. A deceleration lane will also be installed so they can access the road without fear of being hit from behind when returning from Huntington. "We are happy with these improvements," said Jeannine Seegmiller.
Kunzler said, "This project is needed to meet adequate traffic operations and correct existing design deficiencies including substandard shoulder widths, a deficient clear zone and to improve the safety of the corridor."

As a measure of the true potential of the global economy, growth in the East is a pretty good yardstick. Investment opportunities are strong in the diverse range of 21 Pacific Rim economies that comprise the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), as demonstrated at the December 2011 annual APEC CEO summit for which PwC was Knowledge Partner. In a survey PwC conducted at the event, CEOs and other business leaders from the critical region made one thing especially clear: The continued growth in Asia Pacific's emerging economies over the next three to five years will generate billions in economic activity.1
The survey of more than 320 industry leaders in 26 countries revealed that more than half of respondents are very confident in revenue growth over the next three to five years; among those based in China, Hong Kong, and Chinese Taipei, the figure rises to 76 percent. But companies looking to expand their businesses in the burgeoning region should be mindful of what some who were surveyed see as the greatest obstacle to growth: a potential talent crisis.
While several issues pose a threat to slow growth—like political instability, corruption, and restrictions on labor mobility or immigration—talent concerns are a top priority. It's a multi-faceted issue, though many of those surveyed indicate that they expect to face difficulty in recruiting employees under the age of 30, and they are afraid of losing a bulk of their workforce to retirement and undergoing high staff turnover for several years to come.
Sixty-five percent of global business leaders in both mature and fast-growing economies say that the threat of competitors recruiting the best potential candidates is a key challenge they expect to face in the next three to five years. Their second concern? The limited supply of skilled candidates from which to choose. In fact, about 85 percent state that a talent shortage will be a barrier to their organization's growth within the APEC region in the coming years.
Most distinctively, high unemployment rates in a country do not mitigate concerns about locating quality candidates: Some US businesses specifically point out that they're struggling to find candidates with the right managerial experience and high-level skills, particularly in the scientific and engineering professions. In the Asia-Pacific region, more employers in global surveys routinely report difficulties filling jobs, and China is currently dealing with critical shortages at the senior management and executive levels, according to the 2011 APEC report.
With growth of the working-age population projected to decline—in APEC countries, the growth rate drop in the next decade will be more than 50 percent from the previous 10 years2—the timing of such a decline in talent may be inevitable. But the problem is made worse by uneven educational systems that fall short of producing candidates with the right skills. Already, 29 percent of employers in fast-growing economies say they have difficulty forecasting available talent.
Still, expansion plans are ambitious. Even as labor costs rise in fast-growing economies, half of industry leaders in these markets expect to increase headcount by at least five percent over the next three to five years, escalating an already serious talent crunch.
How will businesses in fast-growing economies change their approach to talent to address these challenges? Many plan on refreshing their talent programs with more attractive benefit packages, increased wages, and more nonfinancial rewards. (See Figure.) Amping up salaries is on the radar of 90 percent of companies surveyed, pointing to a push for employee loyalty and incentive. To keep current employees competitive, ongoing training that develops their skill sets is also a savvy option.
Clearly, a combined effort of attracting worthy candidates and retaining them for long-term skill development is key; 45 percent of business leaders in both mature and fast-growing economies say that high staff turnover will be a challenge in the next several years.
CEOs in fast-growing economies are changing talent approaches on many fronts

The Renaissance IPO ETF (IPO) appears to have gotten the fund industry's equivalent of a huge first-day pop during its Wednesday launch.
FactSet Research Systems and XTF.com both show more than 837,000 shares of this new ETF changed hands in its first day of trading. That's a pretty remarkable number for such a specialized investment. It's even more notable for a new ETF. Many new funds go virtually dormant for months or even years.
The $5 million assets under management you might be seeing today from some data vendors is almost certainly stale. Watch that number and it'll undoubtedly be higher in tomorrow's updated figures.
The Renaissance ETF will compete with First Trust US IPO Index ETF (FPX), which is slower to add new stocks, and it's just in time for the hotly anticipated Twitter IPO (The new ETF is expected to add the stock on its fifth day of trading). Uncanny timing, that.
Top holdings are Facebook (FB) at 11%, Zoetis Inc. (ZTS) at 10% and Delphi Automotive (DLPH), 9.9%.

Italy needed three tries courtesy of their front row to scrape past Tonga in a hard-fought Test in Brescia on Saturday.
Italy needed three tries courtesy of their front row to scrape past Tonga in a hard-fought Test in Brescia on Saturday.
Italy warmed up for the visit of two heavyweights in the coming weeks with an unconvincing win over a feisty Tongan side.
With the All Blacks up next for Italy in Rome next week and Australia a week later, Azzurricoach Jacques Brunel came into the first of three November internationals claiming the pressure was off the Azzurri.
Having won the last two of their three fixtures against Tonga, Italy's starting 15 contained a mix of youth and experience with Tomasso Iannone making his full debut and a number of Italy regulars not making their appearance until the second half.
Tonga, meanwhile, came to perform and did so in a dominant first half which saw the hosts pull back in front only thanks to a late Leonardo Ghiraldini try that was converted by Kris Burton.
Tonga started strongly and took a third-minute lead when Fangatapu 'Apikotoa sent a penalty between the posts, however Italy replied almost immediately when Lorenzo Cittadini pushed over for their opening try in the sixth minute.
Tonga dominated an Italian line-out just outside their own 22 but from an attempted clearance the visitors gave up possession and Cittadini bundled the ball over the line.
Looking comfortable and more confident in their passing game, Tonga forced their way into Italy's 22 several times, and were rewarded for their efforts.
'Apikotoa kicked a penalty 10 minutes into the game but Burton restored the hosts' lead when he landed a penalty three minutes later.
Tonga's big break came when Italy captain Sergio Parisse was shown a yellow card in the 23rd minute for holding up play.
'Apikotoa kicked the penalty to give them a one-point lead and although Burton restored Italy's advantage with a penalty in the 27th minute Tonga were soon back in front with their opening try.
Italy had dominated the scrum but gave up possession, allowing Sione Piukala to carry the ball deep into territory where Italy's defence had to be at their best to repel the red tide.
As Tonga pushed forward they won a penalty, but kicked out for a line-out. Eventually, the ball found its way to Alisona Taumalolo deep on the left and he burst towards the corner flag to squeeze the ball in at the corner to put Tonga 11-14 ahead.
'Apikotoa converted from a tight angle near the 22 line to add two points, but Tonga's lead did not last long.
As half-time approached the Azzurrimoved up a gear and were rewarded after a determined push which saw Leonardo Ghiraldini cross over to level the scores. Burton handed Italy a two-point lead with the boot to stop the clock at 18-16.
Italy looked more organised and enjoyed better possession in the second half, but failed to finish several promising moves and Tonga proved a menace throughout.
A Burton penalty goal took the hosts' lead to 21-16 in the 52nd minute, and on the hour mark both sides made a series of substitutions.
Martin Castrogiovanni's arrival made an almost immediate impact for Italy and the hosts extended their lead with a penalty try on 63 minutes.
Burton converted to take Italy to 28 points, but a defiant Tonga scored a try through Vainikolo after a good run on the left brought the scores to 28-23 after 'Akipotoa had converted with the boot.

For Italy:
Tries: Taumalolo, Vainikolo
Cons: 'Apikotoa 2

Dr. Corsi: Obama's Connecticut Social Security Number Is An Identity Theft Issue
Dr. Jerome Corsi: SSA Verified Social Security Number Obama Is Using Never Issued to Him --- VIDEO HERE ---
Dr. Corsi excerpt courtesy of DL: "(I am) working behind the scenes to get some powerful Hawaiian counsel to buttress Orly Taitz. If the Hawaiian government thinks they are going to get away with stonewalling this thing they are making a bad mistake. This (the trip to Hawaii this week by Dr. Orly Taitz and document experts Doug Vogt and Paul Irey) is not the last effort – it is the first effort. Eventually the Hawaiian government is going to have to deliver. We're not going to stop on this until we get the truth…
The SSN is a very important issue. We now have verification from the Social Security Administration - that number was not issued to Barack Obama. We know for a fact that it was issued to someone in Connecticut - not Barack Obama.
It is an identity theft issue. Barack Obama is using someone else's SSN. And his father was never in CT to get that number What Bill O'Reilly said was just an outright lie." The interview aired on Long Live America.
And we know for a fact that Obama is using that Connecticut SSN since it was used to create Obama's back dated Selective Service Registration and for many other uses since 1986 per the research of private investigators.

2nd February 2012 - Hampshire, UK/... Deep Silver and Piranha Bytes today released the third episode of the six part making-of series that will become available over the course of the next months until the release.
In this installment the developers from Piranha Bytes speak about the new animation system that was created for Risen 2:
- Why the old animation system was completely replaced and what that meant for development
- That two to three thousand new animations had to be created especially for Risen 2
- How different combat animations are combined to create a combo attack
- and that Risen 2 features full face animations for the first time in a Piranha Bytes game.
About Risen 2: Dark Waters
In Risen 2: Dark Waters, the Inquisition dispatches the hero to seek a remedy against the monstrous sea creatures that are interfering with the shipping lines, thus cutting off the islands' supplies. The pirates seem to know how to deal with these critters ... but they are hardly cooperative.
New gameplay elements add to the diversity of Risen 2; for example, players can also use firearms now. And, being pirates, adventurers can also employ special new skills called Dirty Tricks, allowing them to confuse or attack enemies in combat.
Deep Silver will release Risen 2: Dark Waters for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, Windows PC, and PlayStation®3.

The Hurricanes picked up their first victory of the Super Rugby season after coming from behind to beat the Crusaders 29-28 on Friday.
The Hurricanes picked up their first victory of the Super Rugby season after coming from behind to beat the Crusaders 29-28 at Westpac Stadium.
It had looked like being the Canterbury side's day when Dan Carter converted his own try on the hour, making it 19-28. But an intercept try from Alapati Leiua and the boot of Beauden Barrett edged the 'Canes ahead with seven minutes left.
Victory moves the Hurricanes off the bottom of the New Zealand conference, with the Highlanders now occupying the basement spot ahead of their home fixture with the Cheetahs on Saturday.
The star player for the Hurricanes was Julian Savea, whose second-half try saw him bump off Tom Marshall before Israel Dagg was on the receiving end of a Jonah Lomu-Mike Catt-esque score. Meanwhile, Barrett was faultless with the boot as he knocked over seven kicks from seven.
However, it was the Crusaders who began the game the stronger when inside centre Ryan Crotty skipped through three tacklers from 25 metres out to make it 3-7 with Carter's successful conversion after Barrett had earlier opened the scoring.
The 'Canes, who looked to be struggling early on, found their feet though and a further three penalty goals from their fly-half pushed them into a 12-7 advantage going into half-time.
Upon the turnaround things came to life as first Corey Flynn barged his way over to edge the Crusaders back in front before Dagg's long-range score extended the lead. That preceded Savea's moment of magic though in a spell that brought the Westpac Stadium to its feet.
It was now 19-21 to the Crusaders with 55 minutes played and when Carter hacked the ball into the in-goal area before grounding, the lead looked comfortable for the visitors at 19-28.
But never write off these Hurricanes – as they showed in 2012 – with replacement Adam Whitelock's wayward pass close to halfway being snapped up by wing Alapati Leiua who raced under the posts. The successful conversion made it 29-28 which was how the game ended following an intelligent finish from the home side. The Crusaders are now 0 from 2.
The scorers:
For Hurricanes:
Tries: Savea, Leiua
Con: Barrett 2
Pen: Barrett 5
For Crusaders:
Tries: Crotty, Flynn, Dagg, Carter
Con: Carter 4
The teams:
Hurricanes: 15 Andre Taylor, 14 Alapati Leiua, 13 Conrad Smith (c), 12 Tim Bateman, 11 Julian Savea, 10 Beauden Barrett, 9 TJ Perenara, 8 Victor Vito, 7 Karl Lowe, 6 Brad Shields, 5 Jason Eaton, 4 Jeremy Thrush, 3 Jeffery Toomaga-Allen, 2 Dane Coles, 1 Ben Franks.
Replacements: 16 Motu Matu'u, 17 Ben May, 18 James Broadhurst, 19 Faifili Levave, 20 Chris Smylie, 21 James Marshall, 22 Reynold Lee-Lo.
Crusaders: 15 Israel Dagg, 14 Tom Marshall, 13 Robbie Fruean, 12 Ryan Crotty, 11 Johnny McNicholl, 10 Dan Carter, 9 Andy Ellis, 8 Kieran Read (c), 7 Matt Todd, 6 George Whitelock, 5 Dominic Bird, 4 Sam Whitelock, 3 Owen Franks, 2 Corey Flynn, 1 Wyatt Crockett.
Replacements: 16 Ben Funnell, 17 Joe Moody, 18 Tom Donnelly, 19 Luke Whitelock, 20 Willi Heinz, 21 Tom Taylor, 22 Adam Whitelock.

Kick-off: 19:35 (06:35 GMT)
Venue: Westpac Stadium, Wellington

"I bought these because I am going on a trip that will require a lot of walking. I didn't want to bring regular sneakers because they're too bulky. I wanted something that was a little bit lighter but still comfortable and sturdy enough to last me walking through a whole day. These definitely fit the bill! Great support!"
