Skip to comments.Ten Year Old, Arrested for Giving Food to Terri Schiavo, Apologizes
Posted on 09/01/2005 9:51:24 AM PDT by NYer
TAMPA BAY, August 31, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Ten year-old Joshua Heldreth, the eldest of eight children, was arrested on Good Friday of this year for trespassing while attempting to bring a drink of water to Miss Terri Schaivo. Days later Schiavo died of intentional dehydration. In court Joshua pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 25 hours of community service and ordered to write an apology for his actions.
The boy whose arrest photo was splashed on front pages of newspapers across the nation wrote in his apology letter, "I was arrested on Good Friday for trespassing on the hospice center's property . . . Not giving Mrs. Shiavo (sic) food or water was wrong. The reason I had to go on your property was because Jesus would do the same thing. It made me sad that she was so thirsty and it made Jesus sad too. I knew she would die without water and I am called by Jesus to be a defender of the defenceless. So I had to go on your property to try to bring her a drink."
Joshua added, "I am sorry that you didn't like that and wouldn't allow me to help save her life and one day you will have to tell God why. I won't be able to help you then like I tried to help her. I will pray for you every day . . ."
LifeSiteNews.com caught up with Joshua's father Scott Heldreth today. Scott told LifeSiteNews.com he is very proud of his son. "My son has amazed me through this whole thing," said Heldreth. The proud father said it was his son's own initiative to attempt to give the starving woman a glass of water, and despite the warning of his parents that he'd be arrested, the boy insisted. "He was the one who begged us to go down, because he wanted to give her a glass of water . . . We explained that police will never let you help . . . you'll be arrested, but he went anyways."
Pro-life leader Rev. Flip Benham of Operation Save America told LifeSiteNews.com that the whole pro-life movement shares Heldreth's pride in his son. Benham recalls the reaction of Heldreth on Good Friday as he watched his son being arrested: "When that all took place Scott was weeping, this father was weeping tears of joy seeing his son not only talk the Christian talk but walk the walk."
While the apology letter has been submitted, Heldreth told LifeSiteNews.com he's not completely sure it will be accepted.
See Joshua's full handwritten apology letter here:
What a disgusting spectacle. May God keep me far away from Florida.
What can I say? That young man knows what's what!
Good apology. If most 10 year olds expressed themselves that lucidly, this country would be better off.
Why would Satan accept this apology?
"Good apology. If most 10 year olds expressed themselves that lucidly, this country would be better off."
Forget 10 year olds...how about 50 year olds...:)
He writes a very eloquent (and slightly vindictive) letter of apology for a kid his age. His faith is quite impressive too. May he do many good things in his lifetime.
Matthew 21:16 and said to Him, "Do You hear what these {children} are saying?" And Jesus said to them, "Yes; have you never read, 'OUT OF THE MOUTH OF INFANTS AND NURSING BABIES YOU HAVE PREPARED PRAISE FOR YOURSELF'?"
That is one brave little boy, standing up to pure evil.
An admirable young man.
This kid wasn't used, he asked to go...
Christ will use homever he chooses. His parents didn't force him, as you read it...it was this brave young boy's choice.
On the other hand...he could have stayed home watching MTV and playing Grand Theft Auto like most 10 year olds in America while his parents get ready to go party on "Good" Friday night.
Thanks for the ping!
If they really wanted to slug this thing out, I think they'd have grounds on the basis that a court cannot force a person to apologize for something. To do so is to force a person to admit guilt; something anathema to our justice system.
In essence, he tells the judge 'You're out of order! You're out of order! The whole trial is out of order!'
And we actually think that God's judgement won't rain down on us? Next time it might be fire and brimstone.
Why would Satan accept this apology?
Court order didn't say it had to be accepted? only that he write it?
I like your point. Can you force someone to plead guilty to something? No, it is their choice. So how can you force someone to "write a letter of apology"? If he is not sorry he tried to help Terri, how can he be Constitutionally forced to say he is?
Way to exploit a child for a political cause - what a wonderful father....
What a courageous young man. I wonder how many 10 yr olds accused of other crimes get off scott free? It's seems they wanted, needed, to make an example of him for bringing water to a dying woman. How dare he interfere with their plans! /sarcasm I like his apology.
This is the stuff of nightmares.
God Bless this little one who knew the decision to kill mentally broken but physically healthy human being in a NAZI KAMP style death, forcing her to DIE of hunger and thirst, is beyond brutal. Is, in fact, insane.
I don't know if he wrote this by himself or not, but it's exactly right. I wouldn't want to have to tell God why they denied water to a woman they were starving to death. And not believing in God isn't going to help them very much either.
your from someplace far worse my friend.....this issue is local....
The state is solid red which is more than I can say for California.
THE CHILD WAS FORCED BY JUDICIAL DESPOTS TO APOLOGIZE, I guarantee you that. The child was probably afraid that they would be starved next.
If solid red, than why don't the good people in Florida do something about their barbaric laws?
This boy wasn't used, except by God. He shames the adults who failed to do anything to stop this atrocity!
"I am sorry that you didn't like that and wouldn't allow me to help save her life and one day you will have to tell God why..."
It should be amusing watching Judge Greer try to explain his way out of this one when faces God. He will get the same mercy and compassion that he showed to Terri Schiavo. Which doesn't bode well for him."
This is a man. God bless him for doing what is right! There is a much higher authority than man and he knows it. If we (and I include myself) had half the belief he does, Terri would be alive today.
Maybe, maybe not. There are all sorts of gifted children and child prodigies who excel to a level of skill not normally seen at their age.
Okay, I am not a lawyer, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night.
Since the kid already admitted guilt by pleading guilty, the judge isn't forcing the kid to admit guilt. He (the kid) already did.
Now it can be argued that even though the kid admitted guilt, he feels no remorse and should not be forced to write a letter for something that he acknowledges was illegal but morally right.
I find it outrageous that the courts would require anyone to apologize for anything. Aside from the fact that the kid has nothing to apologize for, a forced apology is no apology.
An intelligent ten year old could have written this.
I believe his parents did not stop him once he made the choice to follow his own beliefs. His father, as he even stated, told him what the results would be...Jail.
How could someone of true faith tell his son "Hey, it's the right thing to do. Christ would do it, sure, and he would be pleased by those actions... but you will get in trouble, so don't do it." Great message to send.
We need more parents to teach their children to stand for good, regardless of what is in their way.
May Ms. Schiavo rest in peace. Amen.
This little fellow has a VERY bright future ahead of him.
I would certainly hope that this young man got his values from his parents. That's usually the way it works. Where do you kids get their values? From the street? Or worse, from public schools?
I like this kid.
Maybe the Florida GOP can run him against Bill Nelson.
Nothing but net.......Great shot
lots of liberals in Florida.....too many liberals in California....like my own home state the Peoples Republic of NY.
but don't damn a state better than your own.
It is appalling that Pinellas County would make a child apologize for being a good samaritan!
That's my point. I don't consider Florida better than my own...not on this issue.

3 sectors that love tapering and one that has it all wrong
In the six-plus weeks since the Fed announced that they would begin tapering bond purchases, stocks have been barraged with a series of positive and negative developments. Emerging markets have stoked fear and demand for safe havens while consumer related industries have suffered.
"We've seen banks, healthcare and utilities doing the best here" since the Fed's announcement on December 18th, says Paul Hickey of Bespoke Investment Group in the attached video."We want to look at what's doing well and whether that is a sign of things to look for going forward."
One thing on everyone's mind is interest rates, and more specifically, how much they might rise as a result of the Fed reducing its purchases in the bond market.
"You would expect banks to rally because higher interest rates are going to steepen the yield curve and increase net interest margins," Hickey says.
At the same time he says "utilities are a little surprising [since] you would expect them to do poorly in a rising rate environment." But as we've seen long term rates are actually down so far. In fact, the 10-year yield is at a five month low.
"It's just the world we're in," he says.
Super Bowl Indicator: Why a Broncos win will be better for stocks
Professional traders look to all sorts of crazy things to try to get their heads around the market: hemlines, cardboard box shipments, Presidential cycles, and of course the Super Bowl. As much as investors deride all of them, they still kinda sorta pay attention to them, if only for the fun of it.
To the point, Bespoke Investment Group's number cruncher Paul Hickey set out to analyze the Super Bowl theory, which unequivocally has shown that when an NFC team wins, the S&P 500 (^GSPC) has rallied an average of 10% in the ensuing 11 months and was positive 80% of the time, which is more than double the 4% gains that follow an AFC victory.
As Hickey explains in the attached video, as much as 47 years of data sampling is sufficient, this year, he's turned this fabled indicator on its head and says Wall Street really needs to see the AFC Champion Denver Broncos coming out on top. Lest you forget, this Sunday will mark the 7th Super Bowl appearance for Colorado's famed "Orange Crush."
Natural gas bulls turn bearish as weather trade gets overcrowded
After rallying 40% in three months and surging to a four year high, natural gas just got really cold, really fast.
"There's just been an absolute moonshot in natural gas," says Stifel Nicolaus ETF trader David Lutz in the attached video. "We've had two polar vortexes coming in so far. We've had a very cold winter, so you've definitely got weather momentum."
It's not like we haven't seen any three to five percent dips along the way, because we have. In fact, if you use the U.S. Natural Gas ETF (UNG) as a reference, there have been ten different days in the past six months alone when the fund closed down 2.5% or more.
But as Lutz points out, until Thursday most gas traders had been short and sweating it, as the street's hottest commodity just kept going up.
"Everybody said, 'let's get short natural gas, this is going to be a lay-up trade.'" Lutz recalls, pointing out that history was working against this hottest of all commodities too.
3 reasons why the January stock selloff has gone too far
After bursting to a record high on New Year's eve, January is quickly becoming a bit of a wipeout. Despite today's positive move, the Dow Jones Industrials (^DJI) is down over four percent in 2014, as emerging market jitters rocked stocks in ways not seen in two years.
"The one rule of Wall Street that I always adhere to is, the crowd is always wrong," says David Lutz, the head of ETF trading at Stifel Nicolaus in the attached video. "The market is going to do whatever causes the most people the most pain."
While no one can say if or when this slump will end, Lutz will tell you that the tide has completely reversed in short order and that we are now definitely oversold.
"Only 3% of the S&P 500 (^GSPC) is now overbought," Lutz points out, noting that just two weeks ago, "33-40% of the market was considered overbought."
As for his pain trade thesis, Lutz says the first three weeks of trading saw a preponderance of short selling, where "12 of the first 14 trading session this year" saw more bearish bets than bullish ones.

Facebook's mobile mojo sparks revenue explosion
There simply aren't many places where investors can get 63% revenue growth, but when they find it, they pounce -- and pay up.
The example du jour is, of course, Facebook (FB) which has surged 20% to fresh all-time highs after posting fourth quarter results that blew the street away.
As my co-host Jeff Macke and I discuss in the attached video, Facebook's growth and momentum put it in an elite class, to the point where more than a dozen analysts are scrambling today to upgrade their work in order to catch a company that is on the move.
Officially, Facebook beat bottom line estimates by four cents, but its top line surge to $2.59 billion is the source of all the buzz. To do that, the social media giant was able to show that it can indeed sell ads, while at the same time, do so on an increasingly mobile user base.
While some would argue that the stock, now worth $150 billion and bigger than Merck (MRK), is a little ahead of itself, there are several key metrics that would suggest that the company still has plenty of room to grow.

Amazon's earnings won't matter in the way you think
"You know why divorces are so expensive?" country music legend Willie Nelson once quipped, "Because they're worth it."
While ending a marriage may seem unrelated to investing in stocks, the truth is, when it comes to picking winners, the good ones are almost always expensive. It's why growth investors like Joe Fahmy, managing director at Zor Capital, say if you're looking for the big action, you can't be put off by the high price.
"P/E is a good measure for some of the older companies," Fahmy says in the attached video, "but you can't use these traditional metrics to value companies that are revolutionizing and disrupting our lives."
Contrary to the 'never overpay' philosophy of famed value investors like Warren Buffett, Fahmy says history has shown time and time again that avoiding stocks simply because they aren't (or are barely) profitable is to miss huge opportunity.
"When you look back at winners, the biggest winners throughout history almost always trade at a high premium," he says, at 1.5 to 2 times the P/E multiple afforded to the market.
While this thinking might run counter to the mindset of many market watchers, a look at the data makes a strong case.
3 picks from Moneyshow.com that work right now
The team at Moneyshow.com oversees a stable of some 70 different analysts and experts. Their senior markets editor, Jim Jubak, was back on Breakout with a trio of special situation picks that they've chosen to highight as part of the 80 picks they have gathered on their site.
Crown Resorts (CWN.AX)
Jubak's first selection is Austrlian gaming company Crown Resort and comes from David Dittman, the chief strategist for The Australian Edge. It's about a $10 billion business that has risen more than 40% in the past year and currently owns two big casinos in Perth and Melbourne.
"What you're really looking to get some play on is Asia," Jubak says, explaining that Crown also has a 34% stake in Macau and have also just been granted a license to build a new casino in Sri Lanka that could open in 2015.

Dow snaps 5-day slump as attention turns to the Fed
And just like that, the worst storm to hit the markets in 26 months appears to have come to an end, at least for the moment. All in, this temporary pause in the Dow's (^DJI) climb amounted to a whopping 3.7% haircut, before reversing itself today. And this from an index that has doubled in the past five years.
"We're getting some stabilization out of Asia," says Jim Jubak, senior markets editor at Moneyshow.com in the attached video, "but it still depends on what the Fed does on Wednesday."
Also of note is the fact that the slump ended on the very same day that the previously robust durable goods data also took a turn for the worse. Officially, the December reading on manufactured goods built to last at least three years saw a 4.3% decline last month, far weaker than the 2.1% gain economists were expecting. At first the news did not sit well with investors, but in no time, the big picture was back in play again, and bad was once again was good, at least as far as U.S. data is concerned.

Google taking glass to the masses as original specs get a makeover
"Frames and shades for whatever you do, wherever you go, and whoever you are."
So reads the new promotional material for the revamped version of "glass," Google's internet-connected eyewear that have so far been limited to a few hundred dorky "explorers" who were willing to be the butt of jokes and ridicule in order to be technical pioneers.
But by adding four new frame styles - including sunglasses and prescription lenses - as well as vision insurance partner VSP, it's easy to see that Google Inc. (GOOG) is starting to focus on the commercial potential of this obscure offshoot of a project.
As my co-host Jeff Macke and I discuss in the attached video, the key to successfully taking Glass mainstream will depend on style and price. So far the device has cost $1500 from Google and is going for as much as $2500 on sites like eBay (EBAY). But even if you had the money, the devices were only available on a limited test-marketing basis.

As always there has been a lot going on in the social media arena in the past week. This is a summary of the major (and minor!) developments.
Facebook Questions
On July 28th Facebook announced that it was going to launch Facebook Questions. The tool is set to allow you to crowdsource the collective intelligence of the 500 million and growing Facebook user base to ask questions and get answers. Set to compete with tools like Ask, Yahoo Answers and Answerbag, you will be able to ask any question and hopefully get the right answer practically instantaneously. The functionality isn't live yet and is only available to a small number of beta testers but to find out more you can read this Mashable post about the 5 Ways Facebook Questions can be improved.
Google Wave
Google waved bye bye to its Wave product which was launched late last year. At the time there was much clamoring to get on the communication and collaboration tool which was supposed to allow people to easily work together online. Unfortunately, Wave didn't really catch on and today it is no more. In typical Google fashion though, it would appear that they are turning the failure to their advantage. On a positive note Google yesterday announced that business can now respond to reviews on Google Places. Not before time.
Twitter Fail
The Twitter fail whale was omnipresent for much of the afternoon which prompted diehards to take to Facebook to voice their complaints and comments and to vent to relieve their anxiety withdrawal. This leads me to conclude that the Reuters article in today's Washington Post highlighting a study that found that social media is costing businesses in the UK billions in lost productivity, could in fact be true across the Twitter world! Twitter is back up much to the disapointment of businesses in North America who saw productivity peak in the last few hours.

Good Sam RV Travel Guide & Campground Directory
Good Sam Camping App
Gotta-Have Outdoor Tools
From the pages of Camping Life Magazine
Simple and effective—that's the way a camp tool should be. We've collected our favorite new multi-tool, a camp axe that quickly can make logs into kindling, and a toothy folding saw to cut your way through tree limbs and branches. Here's the list.
Columbia River Knife & Tool
A multi-tool with no more than necessary, but exactly what you need, the Zilla-Tool from Columbia River Knife & Tool (CRKT) is part of the company's I.D. Works products line. One of our favorite features is spring-loaded pliers that can be accessed without opening the tool. The Zilla-Tool's pliers handle can be locked into the tool's body for carry, then released for work with the flip of a thumb switch. Two screwdriver hex bits can be fitted in the end of the tool for use, or stored in the handle. The Zilla-Tool also accepts other standard hex bits. Its sharp end is a 3.0-inch spear-point high-carbon stainless steel blade with a combination straight and serrated blade. A finger "flipper" opens the blade quickly and acts as a blade guard when it's open, and a stainless steel pocket clip and nylon carry sheath standard. The 7.4-ounce Zilla-Tool's handle has a bead-blasted finish and is 6.5 inches long. MSRP: $45. CRKT: 800/891-3100;
Gerber Blades
A good axe is always good to have around in camp, and the Gerber Camp Axe is a simple, no-nonsense tool that is well balanced and weighted for clean and powerful impacts. A glass-filled nylon handle holds a forged stainless steel axe head honed to a razor-sharp cleaving blade with outstanding edge retention. The Gerber Camp Axe can make your firewood-chopping chores a breeze. MSRP: $67. Gerber Legendary Blades: 800/950-6161;
Kershaw Knives
Kershaw's Folding Saw is compact and easily portable, but when opened with the press of a button on its handle, reveals a 7-inch Swedish steel blade with razor-sharp serrated teeth that are cut to saw effectively on both the push and pull strokes. The handle is made from Santoprene material that offers a good grip for hard work. Weighing 6.4 ounces, the Kershaw Folding Saw is 16 inches long when open for business. MSRP: $35. Kershaw Knives: 503/682-1966;

Benitez appointed Chelsea boss
Roman Abramovich completed arguably his most controversial day yet at Chelsea after appointing Rafael Benitez to succeed Roberto Di Matteo as manager on Wednesday night.
- Related Content
The Russian handed the former Liverpool boss a contract until the end of the season, having seemingly been unable to woo Pep Guardiola, the man said to be his number one target.
Announcing that Benitez was an "interim" rather than permanent appointment, Chelsea said in a statement: "Chelsea Football Club can confirm Rafael Benitez has been appointed interim first-team manager until the end of the season.
"The owner and the board believe that, in Benitez, we have a manager with significant experience at the highest level of football, who can come in and immediately help deliver our objectives.
"The 52-year-old Spaniard is due to meet the players at the training ground in Cobham tomorrow.
"The two-time UEFA Manager of the Year comes with outstanding pedigree.
"He began his managerial career in his homeland, most notably at Valencia where he built a reputation as one of Europe's top coaches by winning the Spanish League twice and the UEFA Cup.
"He then spent six years at Liverpool and led them to their fifth European Cup and an FA Cup."
The length of Benitez's contract appears the clearest indication yet of Abramovich's determination to land Guardiola once the former Barcelona boss completes his one-year sabbatical.
Wednesday night's announcement was also the culmination of a breathless 24-hour period that was extraordinary even by Chelsea's standards.
What began on Tuesday night with Di Matteo finally axing Fernando Torres against Juventus, ended this evening with the arrival of the man who made the £50million flop one of the best strikers in the world but became a man largely disliked among his new club's supporters.
In between all that, Di Matteo joined the ever-increasing list of men to be ruthlessly sacked by Abramovich, who is now on his ninth manager in a little over eight years.
It would be no exaggeration to say Benitez would be the least popular of his appointments judging by the reaction of Chelsea supporters on social media.
The Spaniard's Liverpool links, run-ins with former Blues boss Jose Mourinho and mixed records at both Anfield and Inter Milan were all criticised.
But that failed to deny Benitez, who spent Wednesday in Abu Dhabi, from where he agreed a contract with Chelsea after leaving little doubt about his interest in them.
He told Sport360: "I am looking for a club that can challenge for trophies and Chelsea is one of these clubs."
That was much the same as he said earlier this year before watching Di Matteo pick the Blues up off the floor to inspire the greatest climax to a season in the club's history.
But not even delivering Abramovich's Holy Grail of the Champions League - as well as the FA Cup - could spare Di Matteo becoming the latest victim of the most uncompromising owner in football.
Tuesday night's 3-0 defeat at Juventus was the final straw for Abramovich, who it is understood had already been considering wielding the axe following an alarming slump in form.
He wasted little time after Di Matteo's radical tactics and team selection backfired spectacularly in Turin, where Chelsea suffered their worst ever Champions League group stage result to leave them on the brink of becoming the first holders to crash out before Christmas.
Abramovich instructed chairman Bruce Buck and chief executive Ron Gourlay to deliver the bad news, which they did at around 4am at the club's training ground following the team's return flight to London.
It is understood Di Matteo was far from shocked by the decision and had already said what amounted to a farewell to some of his players prior to the meeting.
Chelsea waited until 9am to confirm his departure "The team's recent performances and results have not been good enough and the owner and the board felt that a change was necessary now to keep the club moving in the right direction as we head into a vitally important part of the season," a statement read.
"The club faces a difficult task ahead in qualifying for the knockout stages of the Champions League, as well as maintaining a strong challenge for the top of the Premier League while competing in three other cup competitions.
"Our aim is to remain as competitive as possible and challenge strongly on all fronts.
"The owner and the board would like to thank Roberto for all he has done for the club since taking over in March.
"Roberto helped guide us to an historic Champions League victory and a seventh FA Cup. We will never forget the huge contribution he has made to this club's history and he will always be welcome at Stamford Bridge."
On paper, the decision to sack Di Matteo looks the most brutal of Abramovich's near-decade at Stamford Bridge and it is understood the Russian was warned it could result in a backlash.
But he was never 100% convinced Di Matteo was the man to implement his vision of seeing 'Barcelona in blue shirts', despite rewarding the Champions League triumph with a two-year contract.
That deal had a clause allowing both parties to review the arrangement next summer and it was unclear today whether Di Matteo was entitled to be paid for the remainder of the agreement if he failed to find work in the next 18 months.
Chelsea will almost certainly stop paying him the moment he does join a new club, which is unlikely to take too long for a man with his new-found pedigree.
He could be followed by assistant Eddie Newton who, as of this afternoon, was still in a job.

The Chiefs returned to top spot on the Super Rugby standings thanks to a hard-fought 28-22 victory over the Bulls in Hamilton.
The Chiefs returned to top spot on the Super Rugby standings thanks to a hard-fought 28-22 victory over the Bulls in Hamilton on Friday.
In a bruising see-saw battle, the Chiefs – who trailed by eight points (8-16) at the break – outscored the Bulls three tries to one.
Replacement forward Sam Cane dived over for what proved to be the match-winner with 10 minutes of the game remaining, although the result was never guaranteed until the final whistle against a desperate Bulls side.
Springbok pivot Morne Steyn, who finished with 17 points, kept his side in touch with his trusty boot. However it wasn't enough to save the visitors from suffering back-to-back defeats.
The three-time Super Rugby champs did, however, manage to bag a crucial losing bonus point and will head home with two wins and two losses from their Australasian tour.
The win lifts the Chiefs' points tally to 53 – eleven points ahead of the Crusaders at the top of the New Zealand conference and four clear of the Stormers at the top of the table,
It was the Bulls who struck first thanks to a trademark Steyn penalty to put the South Africans in front, before opposite number Aaron Cruden put his team on the board in the 15th minute.
Steyn added a drop-goal, but the Chiefs hit back after an error by wing Akona Ndungane inside his 22 allowed full-back Andrew Horrell to toe the ball ahead and dot down for the opening try.
Cruden added the extras and the hosts were in front 8-6. But Steyn's second penalty kick helped the Bulls leapfrog the Chiefs by one point (8-9) heading into half-time.
That was until prolific winger Bjorn Basson wriggled free of Lelia Masaga and dove over in the corner just seconds before the siren, and Steyn's conversion made the score 16-8 as the players went into the sheds.
The Bulls started the second half with a roar and a hiss but Cruden halted the visitors' momentum with another three-pointer from the tee to close the gap, before Steyn was once again on target to extend his team's lead to back to eight points.
From a set-piece move, the Chiefs eventually re-took the lead after wing Aseli Tikoirotuma took an inside pass from Cruden to motor over the tryline untouched. Cruden converted and it was game on (21-19).
The Bulls weren't prepared to roll over just yet and another Steyn penalty gave them a one-point lead (21-22) with a quarter of the match remaining.
That was until a classic offload from Sonny Bill Williams put the supporting Cane under the posts to give the Chiefs the ascendancy yet again.
With the clock winding down, the Bulls had one last throw of the dice to pull off a win in a frantic final period, but the Chiefs managed to hang on for a well-earned victory.
The scorers:
For Chiefs:
Tries: Horrell, Tikoirotuma, Cane
Cons: Cruden 2
Pens: Cruden 4
For Bulls:
Try: Basson
Con: Steyn
Pens: Steyn 4
Drop: Steyn
Chiefs: 15 Andrew Horrell, 14 Lelia Masaga , 13 Jackson Willison, 12 Sonny Bill Williams, 11 Asaeli Tikoirotuma, 10 Aaron Cruden, 9 Tawera Kerr-Barlow, 8 Kane Thompson, 7 Tanerau Latimer, 6 Liam Messam, 5 Brodie Retallick , 4 Craig Clarke (c), 3 Ben Afeaki, 2 Hika Elliot, 1 Toby Smith.
Replacements: 16 Mahonri Schwalger, 17 Arizona Taumalolo, 18 Michael Fitzgerald, 19 Sam Cane, 20 Brendon Leonard, 21 Robbie Robinson, 22 Maritino Nemani.
Bulls: 15 Zane Kirchner, 14 Akona Ndungane, 13 Johann Sadie, 12 Wynand Olivier, 11 Bjorn Basson, 10 Morné Steyn, 9 Francois Hougaard, 8 Pierre Spies (c), 7 CJ Stander, 6 Dewald Potgieter, 5 Wilhelm Steenkamp, 4 Flip van der Merwe, 3 Werner Kruger, 2 Chiliboy Ralepelle, 1 Dean Greyling.
Replacements: 16 Willie Wepener, 17 Rayno Gerber, 18 Juandré Kruger, 19 Arno Botha, 20 Jano Vermaak, 21 Louis Fouché, 22 JJ Engelbrecht.

Travel's Best Fall Foliage Road Trips 2013
Hudson Valley, New York"What's on my fall drive checklist? Sinuous roads, sweeping vistas, elevation changes, barns and more barns, pleasant farm animals, homes you wish you could live in, a farmers market and and a cool diner for lunch. My favorite fall drive this year has all of the above and then some. As an agricultural area, Duchess County in New York's Hudson Valley has some of the most beautiful land you'll ever set your eyes on." – Samantha Brown, Travel Host 960 1280
Hudson Valley Road Trip"Use Route 82 and Route 44 in Salt Point, NY, as your bookends and all the roads in between as your playground." – Samantha Brown, Travel Host
See Interactive Map 960 1280
Deep Creek Lake, Maryland"Head to Deep Creek Lake in Maryland to enjoy gorgeous views by car along 2 fall foliage heritage tours. Motor along Route 219 up to the Deep Creek Lake overlook in McHenry for a look at the lake, ski slopes and breathtaking autumn foliage before heading back to the visitors center as part of a 90-minute driving loop." -- Erin Gifford, Family Travel Expert, Kidventurous.com 960 1280
Deep Creek Lake Road Trip"For a longer drive try Historic National Road, which starts near Deep Creek Lake and winds through 6 states. Foliage peaks in early- to mid-October. Slow down for parades, pumpkin chucking and ice cream sundae-eating contests at the annual Autumn Glory Festival (Oct. 9-13), a real family favorite." -- Erin Gifford, Family Travel Expert, Kidventurous.com

Harpers Ferry, West Virginia"An easy drive from Washington, DC, Harpers Ferry in West Virginia has fall foliage that's worth the drive the third to fourth week in October. When we take the kids, I like the Jefferson Rock hike, which is less than 1 mile and has a vista overlooking the Blue Ridge Mountains." -- Erin Gifford, Family Travel Expert, Kidventurous.com 960 1280
Harpers Ferry Road Trip"Another good spot for leaf peeping is Bolivar Heights, a Civil War battlefield across from the park entrance. You'll find easy, flat trails and great views." -- Erin Gifford, Family Travel Expert, Kidventurous.com

Route 112, New Hampshire"This grand dame of foliage routes -- the 'Kanc' (Kancamagus Highway) -- is always worth a drive, but I suggest taking Route 112 west past the quaint little town of Woodstock, NH. Continue on Route 112 to Kinsman Notch at Beaver Pond -- a great spot for beginners and pros alike to photograph fall foliage." --  Jeff "Foliage" Folger, Fall Foliage Sage and Photographer 960 1280
Route 112 Road Trip"The best part of this area outside of the White Mountains is all the little side roads to explore. I found Coffin Pond off Route 116 -- don't get going too fast or you will miss it. On a windless day it can have incredible reflections of the low hills surrounding the pond." -- Jeff "Foliage" Folger, Fall Foliage Sage and Photographer

Route 7, Vermont"In southern Vermont, Route 7 runs north/south through the Green Mountains. During a stretch just north of Bennington is a valley between 2 ridgelines covered in trees, many of them maples and birch. Around Oct. 12-15 is a great time to take a drive up Route 7 to see peak colors." -- Jeff "Foliage" Folger, Fall Foliage Sage and Photographer 960 1280
Route 7 Road Trip"You also have a great little college town in Manchester to explore and shop in and the home of Robert Todd Lincoln for history buffs. Then the road names are very interesting. If you get a good map book out, you will find places like Mad Tom Notch -- doesn't that scream to be explored?" -- Jeff "Foliage" Folger, Fall Foliage Sage and Photographer

Frank Lloyd Wright's Wisconsin"Wisconsin is a magical land in the North, where the beer flows like wine and there are rivers of cheese. Not really, but pretty close to it. The Badger State is also the homeland of American architectural icon Frank Lloyd Wright. Fall is the perfect time of year to visit his organic designs, which are particularly stunning when set amidst the changing fall foliage." -- James Fisher, Founder and CEO of RoadTrippers.com 960 1280
Wisconsin Road Trip"Frank Lloyd Wright's homes and buildings were designed to work in harmony with their environment. Driving through southern Wisconsin, some highlights include Taliesin, Wright's summer home, Wingspread, the 'epitome of organic architecture,' and the Seth Peterson Cottage, which you can rent as a vacation home." -- James Fisher, Founder and CEO of RoadTrippers.com

Twain's Great River Road, Mississippi to Hannibal, MO"As a boy in England, I was obsessed with The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Loquacious and satirical, Mark Twain really knows how to woo a man. Driving down the Mississippi to Hannibal, MO, it isn't too hard to find the inspiration behind Twain's iconic coming-of-age novel. Traveling along Twain's Great River Road during autumn provides incredible leaf-peeping opportunities at every bend." -- James Fisher, Founder and CEO of RoadTrippers.com 960 1280
Twain's Great River Road Trip"This road trip finishes up in Hannibal, where you can visit Twain's boyhood home and a slew of other Twain-inspired attractions." -- James Fisher, Founder and CEO of RoadTrippers.com

Ricketts Glen State Park, Northeast Pennsylvania"Living in the Northeast we are blessed with beautiful fall foliage color due to an abundance of sugar maple and birch trees that turn vibrant orange, red and yellow each year. One of my favorite local drives for a day of leaf peeping is Ricketts Glen State Park off Route 29 and Route 487 in northeast Pennsylvania. The combination of 22 waterfalls, mountains and gorgeous 200-year-old trees make for absolutely stunning photos." -- Bill Kirk, CEO of Weather Trends International and Meteorologist 960 1280
Ricketts Glen State Park Road Trip"While the drive here is spectacular, you'll have to brave a 3-mile hike to really experience the stunning fall color. The waterfalls make it well worth getting out of the car, and the photos and memories of a great day trip will last a lifetime." -- Bill Kirk, CEO of Weather Trends International and Meteorologist

Skyline Drive, Virginia"I fell in love with the Blue Ridge Mountains when I went to college in the "Valley" in Harrisonburg, VA. Weekend trips to escape campus often included hiking or driving through the 105-mile-long Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park. There's no better time to visit this National Scenic Byway than fall, when the fall foliage peaks the second to third week in October. Now that I live in Washington, DC, it's only a few hours away -- still perfect for a weekend fall getaway." -- Kathleen Rellihan, Interactive Producer, Travel Channel 960 1280
Skyline Drive Road Trip"One of the best parts of Skyline Drive is from Front Royal to Rt. 211 -- it's around 32 miles, with plenty of overlooks for snapping photos. These days, I like to combine my leaf peeping with wine tasting in Virginia's Wine Country, too. There's no shortage of wineries to stop at in the area, but some of my favorites include Fox Meadow Vineyards and Gray Ghost Vineyards." -- Kathleen Rellihan, Interactive Producer, Travel Channel
See Interactive Map 960 1280
Lake Wallenpaupack, Northeast Pennsylvania"Another great spot even closer to the Big Apple is Route 507 around Lake Wallenpaupack in northeast Pennsylvania. The good news: Here at Weather Trends we are projecting ideal fall color this year in the Northeast due to very favorable summer and fall weather conditions unlike last year when record October cold and Superstorm Sandy made for a very short and somewhat dull season." -- Bill Kirk, CEO of Weather Trends International and Meteorologist 960 1280
Lake Wallenpaupack Road Trip"Stop in Hawley for some lunch and be sure to take the hour scenic boat ride around the lake for more stunning photos." -- Bill Kirk, CEO of Weather Trends International and Meteorologist

Emery High held its commencement exercises on May 25 in the Spartan Center. Whitney Fauver, senior class president, welcomed graduates, family and friends to the ceremony. She said the graduating class has achieved many things over the years. They donated more than $4,000 to worthy causes with fund raisers in which they were involved. "We have had good times, tragedies and we've done it all as friends." She acknowledged the contributions of family, friends and teachers in where the students are now in life. "We have a power greater than the opposition, we are good, strong and hardy; with Emery County roots. We have good memories to cherish," said Fauver.
Two teacher of the year awards were presented to Duane Merrell and Valene Wakefield. They each received a quilt made by the student council.
Lindsay Huntsman, Salutatorian, expressed gratitude to each of the seniors for their support. She said as they increase potential that their capacity and abilities will increase and a transformation will take place. Huntsman said when you give to others you will get back in return. "Serving is a privilege," said Huntsman. Huntsman quoted Robert Kennedy who said, "If not us, who? If not now, when? Huntsman encouraged the seniors to increase their circle of giving and make a difference in the world. "Give of your time, talents, and efforts. The torch has been passed to a new generation to carry forth, may the eternal flame of service burn brightly." Huntsman said the world is in need of those who will take action and are willing to sacrifice. She concluded by saying it was her hope that the class of 2004 found themselves by giving to others.
J.D. Jensen, honor student, said the seniors are living the American dream and they are hard working kids who are determined to strive for the very best. They have completed one of their first major goals by finishing high school. They have worked for this day since the first grade. He said plans have changed over the years and goals. Jensen said he once wanted to be a veterinarian, but now wants to be a doctor. He said he has worked hard and is determined. He has had much help along the way, teachers like Neal Peacock who puts in countless hours with the student council and the sterling scholars. Jensen encouraged the seniors to climb the ladder one step at a time and don't give up. "You have to work to succeed, push for the best. Dare to dream," said Jensen.
Tyrell Jewkes, honor student, encouraged the seniors to maintain their integrity. He likened integrity to a muscle that needs to be used to grow. Jewkes said Mitt Romney is his hero because he has integrity. He spotlighted and helped to make the Olympics a quality event and refused a paycheck. Romney donated his own money to the cause. Romney also apologized for the previous problems the Olympics had which didn't have anything to do with him. In doing this, he showed his integrity. Another hero Jewkes mentioned was Coach Jones from the movie Radio. He helped a boy with learning disabilities by involving him with the football team and at the school. Jewkes said, "It shows your integrity even when you do the right thing, even when there isn't anyone there to see it. We are leaders whether we like it or not."
Nicole Sanders, honor student, said the students can't travel alone, but need the help of each other. "We can't walk that road alone," said Sanders. She said she is grateful for those who have shined their love on an independent heart. It is not a weakness to let someone else be strong. Sanders described friendships that have lasted from grade school through junior high and high school. She said to make a decision to be a friend to all. She said with love and sympathy we can influence and inspire. "As we walk together the hills are less steep and the roads less bumpy. We can't walk this road alone," said Sanders.
Bowie Jeffs, honor student, said that each of us are in charge of how we react to situations and have the power to choose what our attitude will be. He described a situation where two shoe salesmen had been sent to a tropical island. One salesman called back and said no one wears shoes here, there isn't any opportunity. The other salesmen called back and said the potential for sales here are astronomical; no one has any shoes here. That is the power of positive thinking. Jeffs said in his junior year at the beginning of the basketball season they were faced with two games with championship teams. Some people viewed the situation as two losses but the team saw it as an opportunity to make a statement and won those two games and went on to a 14 game winning streak. "Dream big and see your dreams through," said Jeffs.
Chandler Tanner, Valedictorian, wished his Mom a Happy Birthday and said she has been his greatest supporter. "Life is a journey, not a destination," said Tanner. He encouraged everyone to be cheerful as they go about their day to day living. He encouraged the seniors to dance like no one was watching, sing like no one is listening and work like you don't need the money. "Most people are miserable, risk being happy," said Tanner, "be willing to sacrifice." Tanner told the story of a young boy who went into a restaurant with only 50 cents. He asked the waitress how much a sundae would cost and she replied 50 cents. He again asked to her annoyance how much just plain ice cream would cost and she said 35 cents. He smiled and said he would take the plain ice cream. After he departed she found a 15 cent tip by his empty dish. He sacrificed so she could have a tip. Be thoughtful of others and each day will be more meaningful. Tanner explained that life is full of troubles and rough times, but how you take it is what counts. "It's not a disgrace to fall down, but come up with a smiling face, to lay there is a disgrace," said Tanner. He said that living is the purpose of life and how you travel your chosen road that makes the difference.
Principal Gwen Callahan presented the seniors to the school board for graduation. Laurel Johansen, school board president, presented the seniors with their diplomas. The senior class sang the school song, "The Halls of Emery," to close the ceremony.
Eleven seniors at Green River High School graduated on May 28. Rebekah Thornton welcomed school board members, parents, staff and guests to the event. Thornton began by explaining that for Christmas, the student council decided on a UFO theme. The school's Christmas tree was completely covered with aluminum foil. She explained that Jerome Burns, a fellow graduate, has been driving around with the foil in his trunk for the past five months. So, she made a presentation of the aluminum foil ball to the schools principal, Nolan Johnson.
Jessica Jenkins was the first to speak. She is a teacher at the school. She began with a special memory of each graduating student. Of Tyrell Black she said, "Who knew he had a split personality. He can do any dialect that is needed for any school play." Jenkins next spoke of Allen Burns, "He is the builder. When we were deciding on the set for the King and I, he was there every day willing and eager to begin the building of the set."
Jenkins said her memories of Garion Ford were from homecoming. "He is the most determined. At homecoming, he was determined to win, and not let his little brother get the best of him."
Dawna Maldonado was the next student Jenkins
spoke about. "She is a beautiful lady with tons of personality."
The next graduate to be honored was Charla McCune. "She was our ray of sunshine for the year." Jenkins went on to speak of Lance Richards. "He was our quiet strength."
"Jared Johnson had the smile with a glint of mischief. You never quite knew what was going to happen with him," Jenkins said. "Tessina Trejo is our great example of perseverance."
"Rebekah Thornton is definitely the character of the group," said Jenkins.
"Rachel Dunham is gracious, caring, talented, beautiful and intelligent," Jenkins stated. "And Jerome Burns, talk about dedication. When it came to playing the king in The King and I, off came the hair, with no question."
Jenkins then welcomed the graduates to Miss J's reality show. She handed each student a kit that included the items needed to make it in the real world. The kit contained a treasure (candy) for the treasure they would need. Also, Smarties for what they would learn, nuts for the nutty people they would meet, and a worm (also candy) to show that you cannot worm your way out of tight situations in the real world.
The kit also contained three lifelines, the first being family. Without family support, life could be tough, so count on your family. A whistle was next. This represented the phone a friend or family member for support. The third and most important lifeline in the kits was "You." Jenkins told the students to have faith in yourself and you can do anything. "It' not easy to win, but perseverance will see you through. In drama terms, go out there and break a leg," Jenkins added.
Shellie Anderson spoke to the graduates. She said "I feel very privileged to be asked to speak tonight. All these individuals you see behind me are individual thinkers and they think outside the box. Whatever the project and no matter how many ideas were on the table, they always pulled together and took the best idea to succeed."
"Be the best at whatever you are. I will miss you and I wish you the very best," Anderson said.
Salutatorian Jerome Burns, began by explaining that he had always thought those people who said "Where has all the time gone?" were misguided. Then he added, "Where Has all the time gone?"
Burns went on to say, "The past four years here at Green River High have been the most influential in my life. It is very challenging to say good-bye and leave this place and the people in it. We must go or be left behind,"
Rachel Dunham, Class Valedictorian, said, "The 11 of us have been traveling the same road for the past 12 years, and now we are parting and going as many different directions. Change does not have to be feared, we should fear not changing."
"When I lived in Nepal, an earthquake happened. Only one house in town was damaged. The American who built that house thought he knew better how to build a house than the people who had been there all their lives. The house he built did not have integrity. We need to be people of integrity and honesty," Dunham said. "Success can simply be changing the life of another or reaching some small goal. How we react to failure will determine our character. Search for the truth and live according to it."
Principal Johnson and school board member Royd Hatt concluded the program by introducing each graduate and handing out their diplomas. The graduates marched out of the auditorium and formed a receiving line in front of the school for all in attendance to congratulate them.

It wasn't his music—nor an unusual hobby—that brought Brian May, lead guitarist for the iconic rock band Queen, to the attention of The Science & Entertainment Exchange. Before he became known for "We Are the Champions" or "We Will Rock You," May studied astrophysics at Imperial College in London.
Success in the world of rock music meant that May had to put his passion for science on hold. But in 2007, he returned to academia, earning a PhD complete with a dissertation bearing the title, "A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud." He also wrote a book, Bang! The Complete History of the Universe, and became a frequent guest on the popular BBC astronomy program "The Sky at Night."
May's unusual path to stardom in two unrelated fields got us wondering what other celebrities have spent time in a classroom studying STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics).
Although the public isn't usually aware of the academic achievements of celebrities, two actresses—Mayim Bialik and Danica McKellar—have received publicity for their scholarship. Bialik, the star of the sitcom Blossom (1990-1995), earned a PhD in neuroscience from UCLA in 2008. She currently is a season regular on The Big Bang Theory, playing a neuroscientist and close friend of Sheldon Cooper.
McKellar has also appeared on The Big Bang Theory, though she's best recognized for her role as Winnie Cooper on The Wonder Years. McKellar, who graduated from UCLA in 1998 with a degree in mathematics, co-authored a paper while in undergraduate school and has a theorem, the Chayes-McKellar-Winn theorem, named after her. She has also written three books that encourage young women to pursue an interest in math: Math Doesn't Suck: How to Survive Middle-School Math Without Losing Your Mind or Breaking a Nail, Kiss My Math: Showing Pre-Algebra Who's Boss, and Hot X: Algebra Exposed!
And Bialik and McKellar aren't the only actors who have caught the STEM bug. Here's a list of a few of the celebrities with STEM degrees, some of which may surprise you:
• Heroes actor Masi Oka has a degree in computer science and mathematics from Brown University and also worked at George Lucas' Industrial Light and Magic as a digital effects artist.
• Art Garfunkel, half of the singing duo Simon and Garfunkel, has a master's degree in mathematics from Columbia University and took courses in mathematics education at Teachers College, Columbia. He also taught math at Litchfield Private School in Connecticut for a year in the early 1970s.
• Sopranos actor Dan Grimaldi has a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Fordham University, a master's degree in operations research from New York University, and a PhD in data processing from the City University of New York. He's currently teaching at a community college in Brooklyn.
• Felicia Day, best known for her role on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, graduated summa cum laude from the University of Texas at Austin with a double major in mathematics and music performance.
• Legendary comedy singer-songwriter Tom Lehrer received bachelor's and master's degrees from Harvard and taught math at MIT, Harvard, Wellesley, and the University of California at Santa Cruz (where he also taught musical theater). One of Lehrer's most famous song parodies is "The Elements," in which he set the names of the chemical elements to the tune of the Major-General's Song from Gilbert and Sullivan's Pirates of Penzance.
• Sandra Tsing Loh, a writer, actress, performance artist, and radio commentator, has a degree in physics from Caltech.
• Beavis and Butt-head and King of the Hill creator Mike Judge received a degree in physics from the University of California at San Diego in 1985
• Child actor Charlie Korsmo (Dick Tracy, Hook) received a degree in physics from MIT. He subsequently graduated from Yale Law School and is currently teaching law in New York.
• Musician Wendy Carlos, who popularized the use of a synthesizer as a musical instrument (A Clockwork Orange,Switched-On Bach) double majored in music and physics at Brown.
• Action star Dolph Lundgren, most recently on screen in The Expendables, has a master's degree in chemical engineering from the University of Sydney. He received a Fulbright Scholarship to study at MIT, but chose to continue acting.
• Dylan Bruno, who played FBI agent Colby Granger on the CBS series Numb3rs, received a bachelor's degree in environmental engineering from MIT.
• British comedian, actor, and writer Rowan Atkinson has a master's degree in electrical engineering from Queen's College, Oxford.
• Tom Scholz, founder of the rock band Boston, received bachelor's and master's degrees in mechanical engineering from MIT. He also invented a guitar amplifier and worked for the Polaroid Corporation as a senior product design engineer and holds a number of patents.
• Best known as a B-movie director, Roger Corman has a degree in industrial engineering from Stanford.
• Jazz great Herbie Hancock earned degrees in both music and electrical engineering at Grinnell College.
• TV talk show host Montel Williams received a degree in general engineering from the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis.
• Actor Donald Sutherland double majored in engineering and drama at Victoria College of the University of Toronto.
• Lisa Kudrow, best known for her Emmy-winning role onFriends, has a degree in biology from Vassar College. She worked in medical research while honing her comedy skills after hours.
• Drake Hogestyn, who's been on Days of Our Lives since 1986, doubled majored in microbiology and applied science at the University of South Florida, expecting to become a dentist.
• Ally Walker, who starred in the series Profiler and Tell Me You Love Me, received a degree in biochemistry from the University of California at Santa Cruz. She worked as a researcher on a genetic engineering project in preparation for UCLA Medical School until she was spotted by a Hollywood producer in a restaurant.
• Dexter Holland, front man for The Offspring, has a master's degree in molecular biology from the University of Southern California
• Greg Graffin, lead singer for the group Bad Religion, double majored in anthropology and geology at UCLA and earned a PhD in evolutionary paleontology from Cornell

She learned that he had killed her parents.
Monitor forced Harbinger to do it so that the energy released by his death could absorb and contain Earth-One and Earth-Two.
Not gonna lie, this part of the story gets a little fuzzy. He saved the two universes, but caused them to slowly merge, which would actually destroy them. We think?

The All Blacks completed a 3-0 series victory over France on Saturday with a 24-9 win at Yarrow Stadium in New Plymouth.
The All Blacks completed a 3-0 series victory over France on Saturday with a 24-9 win at Yarrow Stadium in New Plymouth.
The result is New Zealand's seventh consecutive win over the French, who were once again held try-less, but the result hung in the balance right up to the dying minutes.
New Zeland led 8-6 at the end of an entertaining first-half thanks to a try from wing Ben Smith, but there was very little to choose between the sides.
Indeed, the fired-up Bleus put in a much-improved display in all areas on last week's disaster – especially at the set piece and in their kicking out of hand – and regularly breached the All Blacks' defensive line.
But the hosts would strike at crucial times with Smith's try coming just before the break before Beauden Barrett scored in the last minute to give the scoreline a flattering appearance.
The hosts were given an early let off when referee Nigel Owens harshly called France back for being offside after a clever chip over the top had the Kiwi defence scrambling behind their tryline.
The French would nevertheless take a deserved early led as centre Florian Fritz slotted a drop goal to ensure the visitors were given some reward for a period of sustained pressure.
Dan Carter leveled the scores with a penalty on the 15-minute mark after Yoann Maestri was pinged for a side entry after an attacking line-out for New Zealand.
Carter hit the upright with his next effort before Jean-Marc Doussain sent his first attempt wide to leave the scores locked at 3-all after half-an-hour.
The visitors would have felt they had enjoyed the upper hand in the first half but – as has become a pattern in this series – the All Blacks scored just before half time, with some help from the TMO, as Israel Dagg set up Ben Smith to dive into the corner.
Carter's conversion attempt went wide but Doussain bounced a penalty in off the post to leave the gap at just two points at the interval.
France moved back in front early in the second half after Sam Cane caught Doussain high and the scrum-half again got his kick over off the upright. Carter replied almost immediately to restore the home side's advantage but missed his next shot a goal.
At 11-9 with 25 minutes to play, it was anyone's game.
The second-half ruck penalty count started to add up against France though and Carter slotted a wonderful kick from the touchline to put New Zealand 14-9 up heading into the final quarter.
A reckless head-first dive into a ruck from Maestri, who copped a yellow card, would essentially seal the win for the hosts as Carter slotted his fourth penalty to extend the gap to eight points and les Bleus finished with 14 men.
Barrett rounded off the win with a long-range try as he chased down wing Smith's kick ahead to sink a nail into France's coffin.
Man of the Match A mention for rookie French pivot Remi Talès, who gave France a new attacking dimension but the standout performnace came from Luke Romano who carried like a machine and tackled tirelessly.
Moment of the match: No doubt about this one, Ben Smith's try turned the tide in New Zealand's favour.
Villian of the match: If you're French, it must be Yoann Maestri, whose brain fade killed off France's chances when they were still in with a sniff.

After accepting that I need quality crimpers I was finally ready to spend $60 on the Universal Micro Crimping Pliers - PA-09. But I have been waiting for many weeks and they are still out of stock.
Today I noticed Ratcheting Crimper Pliers - #18-28 AWG for only $35. Does anyone know how these two compare? From searching for the SN-28B model I found that it crimps in one step, unlike the 2 needed for the PA-09? But I also saw images of crimps from the SN-28B that looked like it caused the crimp metal to bite too deeply into the insulation of the wire. The JST pdf cautitoins against this Check points for perfect crimping.
Can anyone compare crimping quality between these two products from personal experience? I have no problem paying more for a better product! I am still holding out for Adafruit to restock the PA-09, I don't want to spend my money for them at a different retailer.
Also available is the Universal Crimping Pliers - PA-21, but since I figured I'd crimp more of the smaller wires I was holding out for the PA-09. There is also another ratcheting crimper Deluxe Crimping Tool from Hansen Hobbies, has only 2 crimp points.
