The fifth leading scorer in this year's Summer League, Sam Young saw consistent minutes as a rookie last season in Memphis, and while he didn't hit jump shots at a high rate, he still got the job done off the bench. A long and powerfully built wing, Young struggled to translate the spot-up proficiency he showed at Pittsburgh to NBA three point range. One of a number of players selected in the early part of the second round in 2009 that had a productive season on the wing, Young showed well in Las Vegas. His numbers are a bit skewed because of a 3-point performance in limited minutes in Memphis' final outing, but his 35-point explosion against the D-League Select team surely compensates for that.
Playing next to O.J. Mayo initially during his Summer League cameo and the rest of Memphis' stable of former draft picks, Young was the primary beneficiary of the Grizzlies' efforts to play a very up-tempo style. Leaking up the floor regularly, the Pittsburgh product found himself on the receiving end of a handful of deep outlets every game. Young capitalized on the fast break frequently, using his excellent athleticism to finish explosively at the basket and using his strength to his advantage to take contact and get to the line.
When the game slowed down, Young didn't seem to be looking to take the ball to the rim, with most of his touches around the basket coming off of back-door cuts and a handful of well timed offensive rebounds. For the most part, he looked to break his man down off the catch using jabs and quick rip-throughs to open up space for his midrange jump shot. Young did knock down a handful of catch and shoot jumpers and pull-ups, looking extremely confident with his shot selection, but didn't convert at a fantastic rate.
Defensively, Young showed some hustle defensive, and made an effort when closing out the likes of Gary Neal and Wayne Ellington, though both players hit quite a few shots with Young a step late in pursuit. Young played a sound brand of team-defense, seldom taking risks and doing a good job positioning himself to help his teammates, but his play in Las Vegas was a microcosm of some of the issues he had as a rookie last season.
Young has the tools to be a very good defender, but he doesn't make scrappy plays denying penetration one-on-one or show the high intensity level that one would like to see from a player with his potential. We can't condemn Young for his defensive performance in the regular season last year or in the Summer League, but the Grizzlies are certainly hoping to see more from him down the road.
Young's ability to improve on the defensive end will significantly increase what he brings to the table in Memphis. He's proven capable of putting points on the board despite his inability to shoot the NBA three, but he could become an exceptionally valuable player if he brought his A-game defensively on every possession. Xavier Henry will be charged with knocking down shots off the bench in Memphis, meaning this is a golden opportunity for Young to do the things that he does best offensive and start to achieve his potential defensively.
[Read Full Article]
Sam Young has an awesome profile for a defender at the next level, but his ability to translate some of his situation skills to the next level will determine how effectively he can display them.
Blessed with athleticism, strength, and an excellent body, Sam Young looks the part and has the work ethic to be a defensive specialist at the next level. Certain parts of his offensive game fit the description of an effective role-player as well. Young was a real go-to guy in college, ranking second on our list in possessions used (17.8) while posting an efficient PPP of 1.03 (5th). Most of his scoring comes from two specific areas: his finishing ability and his catch and shoot jump shot. Around the rim, Young is ranked 4th in this group at 6.5 Pos/G and is 2nd at 1.27 PPP. His 44% shooting in catch and shoot situations is good for 4th and he ranks 3rd in terms of possessions at 5 per game. If he improves the range on his jumper to acclimate the 37.2% three-point percentage he posted as a senior past the NBA-line, he could become a viable offensive role-player who is an even better defender, a la James Posey.
The fact that he shot 49% from the field on 1.9 Pos/G in the post is a nice compliment to his ability to impact the game with the possessions his teammates create for him, and really highlights the toughness and physicality he brings to the table. Where Young struggles is in his ability to create his own shot , converting on just 17/56 or 30% of his isolation opportunities. His ball-handling skills dont allow him to be much of a threat in transition or operating on the pick and roll, and he is not particularly prolific in terms of his ability to shoot off the dribble.
Projected as one of the top prospects in the Big East going into the year, Sam Young has continued to perform much as he did last season when he was an honorable mention All-American selection. The senior is the leading scorer for a team many pundits already have penciled in for the Final Four come March, and he has shown marginal improvements in some of the weaker points of his overall game.
Young is spending more time at the small forward position this season, and is looking more comfortable away from the basket as a result. He's shooting more 3-pointers this year, and is getting more opportunities to take his defender off the dribble going one on one. He continues to put the ball in the basket at a very high rate (just a hair under 50%) despite being more daring with his shot selection. His release continues to be quick, making him a threat to catch and shoot on the perimeter, but his form could use a bit of fine tuning. Certainly his increased production from beyond the arc will be intriguing to pro scouts envisioning Young as a 3 at the next level. His three-point field goal percentage may have dipped a couple of points from last season, but Young is attempting more than one full additional field goal from this range per game. He has also greatly improved his ability to catch and shoot coming off of screens.
The senior's ball-handling skills gave scouts the most pause about his game last season, and while he shows minor improvements, Young is still very much a straight line driver. In the half court set he is still able to get to the basket on a regular basis due to his over exaggerated pump fake and quick first step, but he misses out on some opportunities in transition. Often times he is forced to take a tougher angle to the basket as a result of his inability to effectively change direction with the basketball when in full stride. While he may be able to elevate over defenders with his athleticism to get his shot off now, it will be a much different case in the NBA. With that said though, there are few players in the country who can challenge Young when it comes to finishing in transition. He possesses unbelievable power and athleticism, a combination that makes for a long list of highlight reel finishes when Pitt is able to run in the open floor.
Defense continues to be a major staple of Young's game. He has solid lateral quickness, a good wingspan and most importantly, is always hustling. Even in situations where ball handlers may have a step on him going to the basket, he recovers so well that he still alters a good number of shots that he otherwise shouldn't be able to. He still could stand to improve how he deals with screens and the pick and roll, something that will be vital to his success as a player at the next level. His rebounding numbers have taken the slightest dip from last season, in large part due to his positional change, but he continues to be an excellent rebounder for his size and the position he plays.
Young is doing all the right things as far as his reaching the next level is concerned. He has further improved his ability to be an effective scorer away from the basket, both as a shooter and when putting the ball on the floor. Though he still has work to do in several aspects of his game, it is clear he is starting to take steps in the right direction to improve these facets. His frame, athleticism and hustle alone are enough to make him an appetizing prospect, but he has the developing skill set to back it up as well. While right now he looks like he could land anywhere from the late first round to mid-second round at this point, a deep run by Pitt in the NCAA Tournament could only help Young's stock come June.
Sam Young enters the 2008-09 season as a legitimate All-American candidate, as well as a Big East Player of the Year nominee. After beginning his career as a role player, Young broke out of his shell and emerged last season as one of the best players in the Big East (Big East 1st team selection) and the nation (All-American honorable mention). He also earned the Most Improved Player award for the Big East, which is a great testament to his work ethic. Each year he seems to improve a different element of his game which has made him a complete player. If this trend holds true for Youngs senior season, he could be a 1st round pick in the 2009 NBA draft.
Perhaps one of the most impressive things about Young has to do with the physical tools that he was blessed with. At 66, Young is extremely well-defined at 210 lbs and exhibits a definite NBA body. He also displays a good deal of athleticism, where he has the ability to change a game with an electrifying dunk, a gravity defying rebound, or a weak side block on a bigger opponent. Although transition opportunities are a bit rarer in the Big East than most conferences, Young has shown the ability to run the floor well when given the chance.
The biggest improvement that Young has made at his time in Pittsburgh has surely been on the offensive end. His mid range jump shot is very effective, as he shoots 50% from the field. He has a high release point and gets good elevation on his shot. He also has a deceptively quick first step, which is due in large part to his adept shooting, which forces defenders to fly out at him. In addition, his very unorthodox pump fake (Young stands straight up on his toes and extends the ball fully above his head on all shot fakes) enables him to get by quicker defenders.
One thing scouts are going to be examining closely is Youngs ball-handling skills. He seems uncomfortable changing directions and dribbling the ball past a defender or in the open court, as the ball certainly decreases his explosion. The other thing that scouts will be looking for is whether or not Young can improve his 3 point range. Hes unquestionably made big strides as he went from shooting only 27% on very few attempts his first two seasons to 43% last season, albeit on just 3 attempts per game. If he can become a more prolific and confident outside shooter, his stock will rise quickly.
Although Young has received much praise regarding his improved offensive skills, he makes his biggest impact on the defensive end. He plays exceptional man to man defense with a certain spirit and energy which is contagious elevating the defensive efforts of his teammates. His physical attributes dont hurt him either, as he possesses a long wingspan which he uses to contest every shot and deny passing lanes. His off the ball defense could get better, as he can be late on rotations and gets hung up on pick and rolls. His rebounding however is very good for a player of his size as he averages about 6 a game.
With improved ball-handling skills and increased 3 point range, Young will try to establish himself as a solid first round pick this season, even though his upside wont be deemed as high as some others due to his advanced age. His physical tools, defensive abilities, and no nonsense attitude will be his strongest selling points.
One of the most improved players in the Big East (and possibly the NCAA), Sam Young has emerged out the shadows (jumping from scoring 7 points in 17 minutes per game as a sophomore to 18 points in 30 minutes as a junior) to develop into a very legitimate draft prospect this season. We talked about Young as someone to keep an eye on in the past due to his terrific physical tools and no-nonsense mentality, and this year hes gone from potential to production while leading Pitt to the NCAA Tournament and earning first-team All-Big East honors in the process.
Young is still the same chiseled 6-6 bruiser, blessed with terrific strength, length and athleticism, playing primarily as a face the basket power forward on a very undersized Pitt team. He gets his points in a variety of waysbe it spotting up from the perimeter, battling down low, grabbing offensive rebounds, and finishing in transition.
He has a good first step, but is not a very advanced ball-handler, as he doesnt change directions very well with his dribble, and the ball clearly slows him down. He is able to play off his perimeter shot (often with very effective shot-fakes) to make his way crudely to the basket dribbling with either hand, where he will at times finish with a nice little floater. He doesnt force the issue too much, seeming to understand his role and limitations quite well, and is very efficient as evidenced by his 51% shooting from the field and 42.4% from behind the arc. Young is terrific finishing around the basket, thanks to his excellent combination of strength, toughness, wingspan, and the fact that he seems to relish contact.
The most interesting development as far as his NBA draft prospects are concerned revolve around the improvement hes made as an outside shooter this season. He hit only 17 3-pointers in his first two seasons combined at Pitt, on a dismal 27%, but is now shooting nearly 43%, albeit on a limited number of attempts, around three per game. He seems to be very confident in his abilities as a shooter at the moment, but rarely will force the issue if hes not completely open with his feet set. His release point looks very consistent, but his shot seems to lose effectiveness if hes forced to shoot the ball off the dribble, or when rushed.
Considering that hes not the most fluid or natural offensive player youll find, Youngs bread and butter at the next level will have to come on the other end of the floor, where thankfully he excels. Hes one of the best man to man defenders youll find in the Big East, blessed with terrific physical tools, but also showing a great deal of tenacity on this end to help get the job done. He stays in front of his man with excellent lateral quickness, and does a terrific job using his smothering wingspan to contest almost every shot, even coming up with some blocks in the process. Youngs team defense could still use some work, as he struggles a bit with his awareness defending pick and rolls and such, but he clearly has a great deal of potential in this area. Hes also a very solid rebounder for his size.
Young looks like a clear-cut role player for the next level, a James Posey type small forward who is responsible for locking down his matchup on the defensive end, and then playing within the offense and knocking down open shots when called up on the other. There is definitely a role for a player with his physical tools and skill-set in the League, but he will have to show that he can extend his range out to the NBA 3-point line, as well as improve on his mediocre ½ assist to turnover ratioif hes to stick. Hes a bit older than most of the mostly 21 year-olds in his junior class, having turned 23 last week, and thus it would not be too much of a shock to see him enter his name in this years draft to see how the NBA values him.
In the past three games, Sam Young has shown both how far he has come since last season and how much he has begun to capitalize on the potential. Not only does Young seem to be a successfully converted perimeter player, but he is excelling in his role as Pitts go-to-guy. Against the likes of Toledo, Washington, and the upstart Duquesne Dukes, he has shown his versatility, improvement, and maturity, all reasons why the name Sam Young could be creeping into NBA draft conversations sooner than later.
On the offensive end of the court, Young is really starting to become a consistent offensive threat, and even at this point of the season, is established as the primary offensive option for the undefeated Panthers. Superficially and statistically, he is having a breakout year, more than doubling his sophomore average with 18.1 points per game. However, he is just as impressive when you take a look at actual game tape. Young is a very good spot-up shooter, possessing range out to the NBA three-point line. If he catches the ball with his feet set, he shows good elevation and nice mechanics. One of the most promising aspects of his jump shot, however, is his release, which is consistent every time he shoots the ball. Its not perfect, but the fact that hes clearly worked on refining his jump shot is good for his potential at the next level.
While his shot off the dribble is nothing to write home about yet, you can tell that he has been working on it by watching him. He has a loose handle that at this point is a little high, but his motions look fluid enough to suggest that with practice, he should develop a nice mid-range game. This is a relatively new addition this year and certainly something to watch. He is currently shooting almost 60% from the field and over 50% from beyond the arc on the season; those percentages are not inflated either because in nine games, he has already taken half of the attempts he took last season. Such numbers are also impressive because Young is usually guarded by opposing post players (shot blocking extraordinaire Shawn James included) in order to compensate for the three-guard perimeter offense that Pitt usually throws at teams.
Another place where Young is impressive is his work on the offensive boards where he is constantly fighting for offensive rebounds and getting putbacks on the offensive glass. He is a small guy, but it is encouraging to see him converted into a perimeter player while still not afraid to bang on the offensive glass. He is also getting to the foul line and making free throws, improving to 77% after shooting 60% last year. Young excels in fast-break situations as well, doing a great job of finishing or passing it off under pressure. Also impressive is his ability to find offense with Pitts guards shooting as many ill-advised jump shots as they did against Washington and Duquesne. This is good for his potential at the next level because hes not going to be a first option in the NBA, and will have to be patient to find his opportunities; this is what he has been doing this year.
However, the most impressive improvement for Young has been his successful transition to small forward. Often times during his freshman and sophomore campaign, he would use his bulk to play inside rather than the perimeter. However, now he is a completely different player, not only capable of hitting jump shots, but also knowledgeable about where to be and to play on the perimeter. It seems as though he is experiencing a relatively smooth transition from the low block to the wing.
Judging his defense is difficult at this point because when Pitt is not playing a zone, Young is often stuck guarding big men. That being said, his post defense is pretty lackluster. He is playing defense against some pretty undersized big men and, while he is giving a noble effort, its clear that he can hardly stand his ground in the post at this level let alone at the next. However, he shows good timing, athleticism, and decent foot speed, which suggests that he has the potential to be a good defender at the next level. He uses this athleticism to get rebounds and can be described as aggressive and relentless on the defensive boards as well as on the offensive boards.
It doesnt seem like Young is not going to be an impact player at the next level, but there is no reason to think that he cant be good. If this year, this past week especially, has shown us anything, it is that Sam Young is a prospect that could shoot up draft boards for this year and next year if he continues to improve at this rate. With Pitt looking to make a run in the Big East and NCAA Tournament, anything is possible.
Pitt snuck up on quite a few people last year, and one Panther that could sneak up on many in 06-07 is sophomore bruiser Sam Young. Cut from the same mold as Big East foe Jeff Adrien and other prototypical undersized 4-men like PJ Tucker and Jeremis Smith, Young is a near-dominant NCAA-level player when he utilizes his natural strengths near the basket. While he eventually needs to move his game to the perimeter, he would be better served sticking with what he does best for now.
Young is built like a football player, listed at 6'6, 215, but appearing much larger. He is quite explosive for someone with his body type, and long arms allow him to play much bigger than he actually is. Young loves to get physical in the paint, and is quite adept at exploding to the rim powerfully and quickly to make up for his lack of size. He is certainly more of a slasher than a back to the basket player, but Young is comfortable operating in both capacities when matchups call for it. Ever since Ben Howland took over, it seems like Pitt has always featured at least one of those nasty enforcer types that makes any foray into the lane a risky endeavor. Young is poised to carry on that tradition, and do a darn good job of it.
At the same time, Young will sometimes get a bit too perimeter oriented. With his professional future coming on the perimeter, it appears that the sophomore would rather be a perimeter player on the offensive end. Young has the tools to do the job outside, with a nice midrange jumper, a passable handle, and some explosiveness. At the same time, he is far from being ready to make the switch to full-time wing. He needs a lot more polish, and his body makeup is certainly that of a big man's. Instead of forcing something that isn't entirely there just yet, Young would be much better suited playing that blue-collar role on the offensive end.
Make sure to focus in on Sam Young at least once this year. You will like what you see, if you catch him on a good day. Physical intensity won't be in short supply, and you might just get to see him tear the rim off the backboard. His NBA future is anything but secure, but he has enough power to his game and aggressive nature required of a player with his projected role.

For the last three months, I've gone everywhere with my purse and two other bags: my gym bag and my knitting bag.
I never thought I'd say that, but then again, I've surprised myself a lot in the last few weeks.
Let me explain.
For the longest time, I always thought I was too busy to work out and get healthy.
My work schedule isn't a radically weird or difficult one, like those of nurses or doctors or police officers. But it is a little weird, and it changes often – sometimes sources want to do interviews at like 7:30 a.m. (a horrible hour of the day, don't you think?) or sometimes I'll have to cover a concert that isn't over til almost midnight.
So when could I fit in the gym? When could I fit in making a healthful lunch at home when, on some days, it feels like I only have time to hit a drive-thru?
But, as I said in my original weight loss column, I finally got serious about doing these things. I made being healthy a priority. No matter what my day looks like, no matter how late or early I'm at work and what responsibilities I have to do afterward, I make sure I go to the gym, for at least 45 minutes.
Now that I'm roughly three months into this, I can't remember what used to take up my time.
I just know I don't leave the house now without my gym bag, packed with my workout clothes, sneakers, hair bands, my iPod, and some spare change in case I want to buy a water from the vending machine.
From the middle of August to the middle of September (basically, right at the heart of figuring all this weight loss stuff out), I took a beginner's knitting class. Since then I have knitted six scarves and three dishcloths. I've also managed to watch more Bette Davis movies in the past three months than I have in…well… a while. Now that my favorite TV shows are back on, I don't feel so bad watching them, because instead watching and eating, I'm keeping my hands busy making scarves that I plan to give away as Christmas gifts.
No matter where I go, I'm ready for either working out or pulling out a bit of knitting to do, thanks to my two bags. My point is: there's time for working out, for eating better, for taking care of yourself – and even a bit of knitting – so long as you make it, and therefore yourself, a priority.

Students present work on history of John-Witherspoon neighborhood, Feb. 10
Posted February 7, 2002; 12:09 a.m.
University students will give a presentation about the history of Princeton's John-Witherspoon neighborhood at 3 p.m. Sunday, Feb 10, at the Princeton Public Library. They will be accompanied by Kathryn Watterson, a lecturer in the University's African-American Studies Program, and residents of the neighborhood.
The participants will read excerpts from the rich stories and narratives that they have been listening to and collecting since the fall of 1999. They will talk about the evolution of the oral history project, which is aimed at collecting stories from older members of the community and adding to what is known about life in that neighborhood during the last century.
Watterson and her students are turning the oral histories they have collected into a book, I Hear My People Singing: An Oral History of African-American Princeton (1900-2000), which takes its title from a Paul Robeson remark about the neighborhood where he was born and raised.
The project is sponsored by the Program in African-American Studies , the Community-Based Learning Initiative , Vice President for Campus Life Janet Dickerson and President Emeritus Harold T. Shapiro.
Princeton Public Library is in the Princeton Shopping Center at 301 N. Harrison St. For more information, contact Terri Nelson at (609) 9249529, ext. 237.

Statement by H.E. Mr. Dian Triansyah Djani, Permanent Representative of Indonesia at the 13th Session of the Working Group on Universal Periodic Review – Consideration of the UPR Report of India
Madam President,
My delegation would like to thank the delegation of India, headed by H.E. Mr. Goolam Vahanvati, for their national report.
We commend the Government of India for taking series of actions to implement recommendations from the previous UPR cycle. We also welcome the fact that the current report is a result of extensive and inclusive consultations involving all relevant national stakeholders.
Indonesia welcomes India`s robust legislative and regulatory measures, including the enactment of "the National Green Tribunal Act" and "the Protection of Woman against Sexual Harassment Bill". My delegation also notes with appreciation the ongoing measures to ratify the Convention against Torture, in particular by introducing the "Prevention of Torture Bill" in 2010. Against this backdrop, Indonesia would like to recommend the Government of India to accelerate its ratification process of the Convention.
Madam President,
Indonesia is of the view that addressing the rights to education is very fundamental in the fulfillment of our common goals to achieve the Millennium Development Goals for primary education and literacy. In this regard, we note with appreciation the enactment of "the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act" of 2010 that makes it mandatory for every child between the ages of 6-14 to be provided free and compulsory education by the Government.
Acknowledging that the implementation of the Act is a shared responsibility of both the central and the state governments, we recommend that both authorities enhance their coordination in an effective manner in order to guarantee the smooth implementation of the Act. It is also imperative to ensure the provision of adequate infrastructures and teaching-learning facilities, particularly in remote areas.
Finally, Madam President, Indonesia shares the view that there is a the need to balance the diversity of India with the imperative of maintaining the fabric of civilization and progress, coupled with tolerance, respect, mutual understanding and recognition of the importance of human life and individual rights. In this regard, we therefore wish the people and government of India success in their future endevours toward that objective.
Thank you.
Geneva, 24 May 2012

ABERDEEN – A May 16 hearing is set to consider if a federal judge should remove herself from presiding over a lawsuit against Tupelo Public School District.
Calvin Ellis of Tupelo sued the school district after he was terminated as its high school choral director.
His attorney, David Butts of Tupelo, recently asked U.S. District Judge Sharion Aycock to step down from the case for several reasons, including that she reportedly is related by marriage to the chairman of the school board, which upheld Ellis' firing.
The hearing is set to begin at 9 a.m. in the Aberdeen federal courthouse.

Modern Love
A new series of e-books carries on the Fundación Cisneros campaign to champion the under-told story of Latin american art.
More in What's News
WSJ. Magazine's cultural barometer for March, featuring the galleries of Mayfair and the blooming of new culinary empires.
WHEN A YOUNG VENEZUELAN media scion named Gustavo Cisneros came to Manhattan from Caracas with his wife, Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, soon after they married in the 1970s, they found a fast friend in the form of David Rockefeller. The philanthropic banker had met the couple after founding the Americas Society and the Council of the Americas, and soon invited them to join the International Council of New York's Museum of Modern Art. It was, as their daughter Adriana Cisneros de Griffin tells it, an eye-opening experience. "Everybody at MoMA knew about Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo—that heavy Mexican art," says the 33-year-old. "But my parents always had an affinity toward modernist works in Latin America. They realized that there were two stories of Latin American art, and only one that was known to the world." The revelation inspired them to create their own artistic organization, the Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, to encourage a better understanding and appreciation of Latin American art. Thirty years later, the original goals of the foundation have largely been realized. Adriana, who became the foundation's president in 2009, points out that works by Latin-American artists now have a home at MoMA, where her mother sits on the board of trustees. And at any time there are hundreds of works from their collection on loan around the world, including the largest exhibition of their pieces to date, which opened in January at Madrid's Museo Reina Sofia. In February, the foundation launched its latest educational endeavor, a brainchild of Adriana's: a series of six e-books on influential Latin American artists (quotes and selected art from e-books at right) aimed at students and art fans alike. The Cisneros family's commitment to sharing its treasures with the rest of the world signals the kind of openness and transparency that most collectors avoid. But, "we always like to say that we're not the owners of the collection, we're the custodians of these works of art," says Adriana. "And that's a whole different ball game."
—Brekke Fletcher
In addition to the Feb. 20 e-book launch of the first six books in the "Conversaciones/Conversations" series, all forthcoming titles will be published simultaneously in print and digital editions. For more information about the e-books, visit http://www.coleccioncisneros.org.

My co-judge, Carol Hynes, and I just finished up judging the Master A (Fri/Sat/Sun)flight for North Alabama Retriever Club's AKC Hunt Test at Forever Wild/Farquhar State Cattle Ranch.
This club deserves so much credit and thanks. Not only did they handle a double Master with 167 dogs entered,but also a double Junior and double Senior. They did this without my co-judge and me having to be stressed about having handlers available in a timely fashion. I can't speak for the other tests and judges, but I can say that I was impressed with this club, their workers and participants.
I want to give a very special THANKS to Splash_em who was our Marshall for all 3 days. Richard...there are few people in this game we all love that work as hard as I saw you do all 3 days. You were always there when we needed you and took care of situations before we even had to think twice about them. Your hard work and efforts were so appreciated. I am so very happy to have met you and wish you and your dogs the best in the coming years!!!!
Allen Dillard, Dave Kress.....Thank you. No one really knows all of the hard work to put on an event of this caliber. You and your club should be very proud of yourselves!!!
Congratulations to all of the Master A participants who qualified their dogs while running in our tests. It was my pleasure to watch you and your dogs work so well together! Good luck in your future tests!
Sincere thanks,

Chapter 1: Introduction to Trigonometry
The study of trignometry begins with triangles. While some properties of triangles are covered in a Geometry book, Trigonometry extends the ideas found in Geometry and shows more properties, ideas, and functions related to the study of triangles.
In this Chapter, students will be introduced to important properties of triangles, special types of triangles, as well as related topics such as functions involving triangles. This important Chapter sets the stage for later Chapters with more in depth information about trigonometry and its applications.

Chapter Summary
This chapter introduced properties and functions related to the study of triangles. The Pythagorean Theorem was presented as a way to find the length of unknown sides of a right triangle. "Special Triangles" were introduced as being right triangles with certain internal angles that lead to well-known properties. Also introduced were functions involving angles in a triangle. referred to as "trigonmetric functions". These functions are relationships between the sides of a triangle as a ratio of one side to another. This was followed by lessons on how to apply trigonometry to rotation in a circle by using one axis as a basis and the angle of rotation from that axis as the argument of a function. Finally, derivation of other trigonometric functions and identities from the known trigonometric functions were presented.

Are you still undecided?
What are the most important issues to you?
I am not going to try to change your ideas, My advice is to follow your heart.
We have all traveled different roads to get to where we are.
Some of us forget that.

I will never make them public on this forum for oblivious reasons.

If you go to www.gretawire.com you can watch the new Obama ad comparing voting to your "first time" may help you make a decision
I found this on FB yesterday. I would THINK it'd make the undecided "think again" but then I have friends who have dug in their heels for their own personal salvations apparently. Teachers/gay-lesbians etc don't seem to want to hear about the economy, foreign issues, etc.
I actually got into a discussion about this with my gal pal...seem she is undecided..we NEVER discuss politics , till now, but as I tried to tell her without trying to influence her decision...I cant make the decision for her..I wont let how she votes affect our personal lives..my only parting shot was that since she got me to start attending church, she needed to look at which candidate better personifies her beliefs as a woman, mother,and a Christian
I made the decision awhile back that I wouldnt try and talk anyone into voting one way or another, but instead just encourage them to vote
The only health care choice for women that obama offers is it will be easy to get an abortion and I guess some, not all birth control pills will be free (according to blue cross) We all have to go through our health insurance companies for any procedure we have done we don't get to just call the Dr and say I want a mammogram. They have guidelines as to what you can have done and when you can have it, under obamacare will be worse than it is now. He says women will have control over their body, not true as long as you have health insurance they hold all the cards.

Town Square
"Beauty And The Beast" by Local theater Company.
Original post made by Don, Ironwood, on Nov 20, 2012
I just want to say how much I enjoyed this production at the Firehouse Theater in Pleasanton this past weekend. The Pacific Coast Rep. Theater Co. operates as Pleasanton's only professional theater company. The quality of the production was very entertaining & the talent, including the sets & costumes as well as the direction & Choreography were well done. I know most of their shows were sold out and I can see why & I would encourage anyone who appreciates live theater to attend their next production.

If comedienne and singer Sandra Bernhard hadn't invented herself, a hovering mothership beaming her down might have been acceptable. Her new show, Sandra Bernhard Is Plan B From Outer Space, is coming to the VMA Arts & Cultural Center in Providence on June 13, and maybe such a cheesy sci-fi movie solution to the world's mess wouldn't be so far-fetched.
Before her standup comedy career was launched in 1974 at age 19, Bernhard was a local attraction in Beverly Hills as a funny, Mick Jagger-mouthed manicurist at a ritzy salon. By 1983 she was a sex-obsessed wacko kidnapping Jerry Lewis in King of Comedy, and she subsequently became an outspoken late-night talk show regular.
Her current trio-backed show opens with songs of Jennifer Holliday and ends two hours later with a musical shout-out to musicians from Guns N' Roses to Prince, in between appreciating making out with Britney Spears and taking on Paris Hilton, celebrity adoptions, and George and Laura Bush. (The VMA show is a benefit for AIDS Project Rhode Island. Call 401.272.4VMA or go to www.aidsprojectri.org.)
Caught up with at a Miami hotel last week, she spoke by phone about this and that.
I imagine it would have been more convenient to package performances as either a singer or a comedienne. Was there any disjunction in the beginning of your career in trying to merge the two?
Well, you know, I always wanted to do both. I loved to make people laugh, but I loved being dramatic and singing and getting people's attention that way. So I've always had to do both because I've always wanted to be a musical comedy star. But then as time shifted and I got more rock 'n' roll, I realized I could kind of write my own musicals. That's how I think of my shows: as postmodern musicals.
What personal or political concerns are you emphasizing on this tour?
It's a myriad of things. It's the government that hijacked the thinking people and has taken us down this really ugly, bad path of a war that's been terribly wasteful, and turning the culture upside down, destroying the culture, destroying the lives of so many families here in America. The environment. Healthcare. These are some of the broad strokes of some of the things I'm thinking about. But of course I never try to beat people over the head. I'm not a political comic.
You can't succeed as an observer of life and culture without having a skewed take, without being an unconventional thinker. How did that start with you? Were you encouraged by your parents? Were you a rebel?
I think both. I grew up in a household where my mother was an artist, and she was very iconoclastic and unique. My father in his own way was also. We all learned how to express ourselves and be funny. We all enjoyed being the center of a good discussion or a debate. That was second nature to me — being an iconoclast, someone who was not afraid to say what was on their mind.

I can help to give all questions regarding cricket laws, rules on both umpiring and cricket scoring. It will be a great pleasure to help any candidate who wants to clear the exam of BCCI. I can guide him how the questions are asked and the way they should be replied. I can also conduct classes for Cricket umpiring and scoring anywhere. I look forward to educate and promote local umpires in the days to come. I would help them to get through BCCI Level 1 exam.
I have been a state panel cricket umpire and doing umpiring for last 40 years and also a BCCI official national scorer since 2004, having done many International ODIs played at Baroda and many first class matches in Baroda. I have passed many state panel exams in both categories.
I was serving with State Bank of India, as an Officer, posted at Bodeli branch, some 65 Kmts from Baroda, having taken promotion in August 2012. I was thereafter transferred to Pavi Jepur Br, some 90 kmts from Baroda on 20/12/2013. Recently I have taken VRS from Bank as after becoming an officer I was facing lot of problems regarding leave to attend BCCI matches as a scorer and also Local umpiring and thus hampering my sporting activities. Now to enable me to spare more time for my passion, I have opted for VRS and was relieved on 30/01/2016 and now will look forward to enjoy my passion in the remaining years.Look forward to remain busy with cricketing activities for next one decade and more.Look forward to help my cricket colleagues. Look forward to give off my best services to my passion, which has taught me many more things and now I feel I must contribute towards the local cricket association, i.e. Baroda Cricket Association with all love and enthusiasm in the coming years.I feel proud to take VRS for the sake of my passion. Its a great feeling that I have taken a bold decision in the wake of my passion which has given me enjoyment and physical fitness to enjoy the game of cricket in the the days to come. Now I feel myself as a free bird and no tension. Look forward to help budding umpires.
Earlier I used to write in local newspaper but thereafter time has not permitted me to do so. I give my views over the controversial topic.
I am a degree holder of Commerce and having a reputed banking job in Baroda. Recently due to some personal problems and to fulfil my love and passion for the game of cricket I have opted volunteer retirement from the Bank service to enable me to do BCCI matches as an Official scorer in first class matches. Taking promotion in Bank and expecting leave for the matches was a major problem and that is one of the reasons to quit bank ahead of cricket.
Awards and Honors
I have passed several examination of cricket umpiring at State levels. I passed Mumbai cricket Association as well as Baroda Cricket Associations state exams. I had also cleared national written test of BCCI, but unfortunately sheer bad luck in viva and practical. I have also stood first in the Scorers' state level examinations at Saurashtra, exam conducted by Saurashtra Cricket Association and also stood first in Mumbai Cricket Association's Scorers' exam. I further cleared the BCCI national exam in the year 1994 held at Ahmedabad. In all I have officiated as an Umpire in more than 3500 matches, including T20, ODI, 3-4-5/days matches, 6-aside, double wicket tournaments, single wicket tournaments, and many more festival events and charity matches. I have also officiated as an official scorer in many first class cricket matches as well as almost all ODI matches played at the IPCL/ Reliance Cricket ground in Baroda. In all I have officiated as an official scorer in not less than 300 matches. I have been appointed a Sports Secretary of SBI in Baroda (2010 to 2012) I have been elected as one of the Umpires' committee of Baroda Cricket Association on 23.04.2012 Looking forward to take care of local umpires and will try to educate them. Recently I was privileged to conduct a 3-day cricket Umpires seminar on 7 to 9 September, 2012 along with Shri Sanjay Hazare, BCCI Elite panel cricket umpire. This was my first ever experience to conduct a seminar, which had almost 60 participants. I am thankful to the Baroda Cricket Association for giving me this opportunity. I have been honoured on many occasions with awards and certificates for my best umpiring. Recently on 13th February, 2014, I was invited as a Chief Guest by Amrut School in Halol, to celebrate the Annual Sports Day of their school.

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) on Sunday said that stand-alone restrictions on gun control would not pass Congress unless lawmakers also addressed the broader culture of "mass violence."
Manchin said that the tragic shooting in an elementary school in Connecticut last month had "changed the dialogue" and that lawmakers needed a "comprehensive approach" to gun violence, during an interview on CBS's "Face the Nation."
"If you're just going to say it's all about guns, and we need gun changes and bans, then you're wrong," said the West Virginia senator.
Manchin said that he and fellow Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) would sponsor a bill to initiate a "commission on mass violence" and hoped Vice President Joe Biden, who is spearheading the administration's task force on gun violence would include it in his recommendations to President Obama.

Looking to purchase a dog ladder for my new boat does anyone have any helpful advise. THANKS
Looking to purchase a dog ladder for my new boat does anyone have any helpful advise. THANKS
I have not found one that I like.
I find it easier just to have a collar on the dog and hoist them in. The problem I have with the ladder is the dog has to jump off the boat normally on the side of the ladder. My dog banged right into it.
Not sure about the best, but our friends who own two Min Pins and a Pit Bull have a Paws Aboard dog ladder that attaches right to their boats regular ladder. My labs use it if were out in deep water and have no issues walking down or back up. They originally looked into the Skamper Ramp, but were told by a rep from the company selling the product that it requires specific fitting on boats to hold the larger dogs weight and were told to look into the Paws Aboard product instead.
The rescue who started it all...
"Hailey" USJ SHR Havasu's Hollywood Heartache RE (7 RAE) JH CGC WC (Retired)
and the youngster
"Ryder" UUJ HR Nog's Knightly Trek to Hollywood CDX RAE SH OA AXJ NF CGC WC CC
After reading many reviews I'll be buying this one for duck season.
It seems to be the best design.

Candlewood's Just In Case JH
I have used the double duty stand. Works good. Can place dog on stand outside of boat to hunt with it as well. It's too bulky to pack in on a walk too hook to a tree like advertised but works good on boats
I have nade 5 or so and like my last one OK- it stores well- is fairly light- easy to hook up and will stay with me even if knocked off deck mount- that said gator trax the boat folks used to make a good light unit but Ican check with buddy about his if you don't find what you want- just be sure there is some cable of rope wetc to keep from losing it if it pops off mounts.
Any new models out there that have been field tested since this thread was originally posted?
I didn't like the ones out there for the price so I started to build my own. I had the bender set up the other day for another job and used some of the material I was using to make the frame to start with. I'm kind of winging it on the design. I will probably add a fold up platform to this that will angle down in the water.
Do yourself and the dog a favor....have one built especially to fit your boat.

I'm tired. 10 long years i published software i mostly wrote for my personal use, but sometimes software i never saw a use for myself for. It has been fun - sometimes.
This message is about the other times.
"Why does ftpcopy fail to mirror some-obscure-site". "I don't know, please give me more details, especially `what does fail mean'". Answer: silence. No, not really, but the guy started to throw dirt on me.
"You should use standard software. Don't waste your time and that of your users with incompatible replacements. Use cron. Learn cron, understand cron and teach cron." Hey, i learned about cron 10 or may be 20 years ago, and that's _why_ i don't use it.
"You didn't answer my question about ... in time. It's now too late, i will not answer your question." Oh, yes, i didn't answer "in time". I regret to have a life sometimes.
"Hello. Your [package] doesn't follow the ... standards. I therefore stop to list in in my [very-important-list-of-open-source-packages]." Heck, yes. You can't seriously follow all standard on this world, and some particular stupid things are just too stupid.
I got flames for not providing binary packages, and flames for compile problems on [operating system of choice, just not my choice].
I could whine about the evenings i spent trying to find some obscure problem. I could whine about all the fine things i missed due to working on software when i could have done other things.
"Why don't you use [non-standard-library-of-choice]?"
I _feel_ like whining today.
What almost killed me was a mail i got last night: "I downloaded ftpcopy this evening, but found that it doesn't have a user interface. Where's the KDE interface? Software shouldn't even be labelled beta without one!". Oh yes, a flame for not having written an X frontend to ftpcopy. That feels really good, especially after spending an evening working on the package. Nice guy ... at this very moment i think he "saved" me from continuing.

Worked out a server-side caching mechanism for PHP based sites. This is extremely helpful to performance. Somewhat like the concept of a reverse-cache sitting in front of a webserver, like squid, but this can be used on those hosts that don't have that software installed. Here is a snapshot of the PHP code, usage should be self-explanatory. I just started testing it, but so far so good.
function pageCacheStart($ttl=600, $debug=FALSE, $cacheDir='/tmp/pagecache', $sidName='psid') { global $HTTP_SERVER_VARS, $HTTP_GET_VARS, $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS;
//to force the cache OFF, uncomment next line //return FALSE;
// we only use the cache for GET requests. // we don't use the cache for ssl requests. if ($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REQUEST_METHOD']!='GET' || isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTPS']) ) { return FALSE; }
// if we have the sid in the get vars, // and we have the sid in the cookie vars, // then we can act as if the sid is not in the get // vars and return a cached page. // if the sid is in the get, and not as a cookie, // then we don't use a cached version since all the URLs // in the page need to be rewritten with the sid by php. if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS[$sidName])) { if (isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$sidName])) { if (count($HTTP_GET_VARS)==1) { $REQUEST_URI = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME']; } else { $REQUEST_URI = ereg_replace('&'.$sidName.'=.{32}','',$REQUEST_URI); } } else { return FALSE; } }
// get the hostname if (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_HOST'])) { $HOST = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_HOST']; } else { $HOST = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SERVER_NAME']; }
// cache directory use for pages from this host. $cacheDirHost = $cacheDir.'/'.strtolower($HOST);
// build the name of the cache file for this page $cacheFile = $cacheDirHost.'/'.md5($REQUEST_URI).'.cache';
$mtime = filemtime($cacheFile); $time = time();
if ($mtime >= ($time - $ttl)) {
//send cache control headers that let client browser //cache the page. header('Expires: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', $time + $ttl).' GMT'); header('Last-Modified: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', $mtime).' GMT'); header('Cache-Control: public'); header('Cache-Control: max-age='.$ttl);
//get the cached file and send it to the browser immediately readfile($cacheFile);
//debug info if ($debug) { print("
CACHED COPY
filename: $cacheFile\n"); print("
mtime: ".date('m/d/y h:i:s a',filemtime($cacheFile))."\n"); print("
cache age ".(time()-filemtime($cacheFile))." seconds\n"); }
//exit this server session exit();
} else { // the directory existence is the signal that pages // from this host should be cached. if (!is_dir($cacheDirHost)) { return FALSE; }
ob_start(); print("\n"); return $cacheFile; } }
function pageCacheEnd($cacheFile='', $debug=FALSE) { $html = ob_get_contents(); ob_end_flush();
if (empty($cacheFile)) { } else { if ($debug) { print("
writing new cacheFile: $cacheFile\n"); }
if ($fp = @fopen ($cacheFile, 'w')) { @fwrite ($fp, $html); @fclose ($fp); } } }
Ordered an Orinoco RG-1000 Wireless Access Point Kit from Outpost.com the other day. After unnecessary confusion with Airborne I got my hands on it yesterday. As mentioned in a recent Mobile Computing article, the RG-1000 can be used as an Ethernet bridge. I had previously only thought that the much higer priced Access Points could act in that capacity.
Setup with Windows 95 was relatively easy, though as Mobile Computing points out, Lucent doesn't make the configuration for a bridge setup known - in fact, they don't really even mention it. You are left to your own devices to figure out how to setup DHCP, NAT and such to achieve the bridge config.
I got it working on Windows, then rebooted the laptop to RH 7. After figuring out the mutliple drivers that can run these cards, and a little trial and error with modules.conf, config.opts, and wireless.opts I got it all up and running.
Speed it great - as fast as a wired connection in my environment. Range seems to be good, at least I can go up and downstairs and in all corners of my small 2 bedroom apartment.
Much thanks to Jean Tourrilhes for his vast Wireless LAN resources for Linux site.
Hopefully I can help get the Alternative PHP Cache (APC) up and running and stable. I don't really have the cash to pay Zend for the ZendCache - and surely not enough for the recurring/annual maintenance fees. Hopefully APC can do the trick!
Right now APC is crapping out on the crazy levels of class hierarchy scattered among 70+ include files that I use for my PHP Ecommerce application, VendoToSell.
Spent the day researching the best means for archiving a portion of my jazz cd collection to mp3. Ended up going with cdparanoia, lame, grip, DigitalDJ, mpg123. Slick. So far got the Miles Davis and John Coltrane Columba Recordings done. Next up my Mosaic albums.
Who needs Real Pukebox Plus? Not moi. Lame VBR 256 kbps encoding for free.
Rewrote phpop's template code to use PHPLIB's template class instead of FastTemplates. Supposedly much faster.
New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.

In most areas of America, Native American Indian tribes were the first settlers, and to this day, Natives remain central to the American identity.
Scholar Philip Deloria is scheduled to visit the Alma College campus to discuss, "American Indians in the American Popular Imagination. He is a professor with the American Studies department at the University of Michigan.
Kristin Olbertson, an Associate Professor of History at Alma College, said Deloria will be able to trigger his audience in a way that others cannot.
"He's going to take the familiar and make it unfamiliar to us," she said. "I think that's really the mark of a great speaker and a great scholar who can make what we think we know and think what we understand, and show us that there is more to understand and more to think about."
One of Deloria's books, Playing Indian, uses several modern examples of how Indian culture influences American culture today. Those include the Boy Scouts and Camp Fire Girls.
"White people, white Americans or people who identify themselves as white would dress as indians," Olbertson said. "That's what he means by 'Playing Indian,' sort of adopting elements of Indian appearance, culture or character for really specific and political purposes. Not all of which, even the people adopting these disguises, totally understand."
Olbertson said that Deloria uses those instances to question why society attempts to replicate Native American culture.
The presentation is scheduled for Thu., Jan. 30 at 7:30 p.m. in the Swanson Academic Center on the Alma College campus.
Admission is free and open to the public.

I'd bet you're running into a stack-size limit. Check ulimit -s to see if you have a limit currently defined. If so, increase the limit or turn it off.
Stack size limits can be a bit tricky to diagnose since the segfault show the line where the variable was defined.

The Anne Yeats gift (1996) included the manuscripts of Jack B. Yeats's literary output together with first editions of his works for miniature theatre, novels, and plays. This image of the character Timothy Coombewest is from a miniature theatre notebook from the turn of the 19th century which contains the manuscript, set designs, and cut-out cardboard characters for the play Timothy Combewest or Esmerelda Grande. This notebook also includes an essay 'My miniature theatre' in which Yeats explains that 'every Christmas for a number of years it has been my habit to entertain the children of the valley in which I live and for their amusement I set up my miniature stage…' he goes on to describe how he creates the productions.

Breeding Red Devils
Question! My Red Devils have layed eggs several times over 2 months. However, each time the eggs grow, a cottonlike fungus grows over them
in about 4 days and never hatch. Parents tend to them but no results;
except they begin to eat them. Whats happening? The tank conditions seem normal without others invading the area to consume them. Any advice or suggestions.
