Chhote Chhote Peg, The Perfect Party Song!
When you see Nushrath Bharucha and Kartik Aaryan together only one word comes to mind, cute! We saw them as a love struck couple in Pyaar Ka Punchnama 1 and Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2.
Now, it's time to see the two to in their hottest avatar yet. The latest song, Chhote Chhote Peg, from Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, just dropped and it is the perfect party song for the year 2018!
Guess who's back for this song? None other than our favourite Indian rapper, Yo Yo Honey Singh! Chhote Chhote Peg has been sung by Neha Kakkar and Navraj Hans, with raps by Yo Yo Honey Singh!
Remember the song Tote Tote Hogaye? Chhote Chhote Peg is pretty much the same with a modern twist to it. Booze and dance are the central themes of this song and its portrayed in such a fun way!
A lot of hardwork n crazy fun went behind dis💪🏻🕺 #ChhoteChhotePeg

After a wedding track Dil Chori and a travel song Subah Subha, this track makes sure that Honey Singh is back with a bang and is completely in his element. Listen to the song here and maybe start your weekend early!

Total Dhamaal Review And First Day Box Office Expectations
Cast: Ajay Devgn, Madhuri Dixit, Anil Kapoor, Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh, Javed Jaffrey, Sanjay Mishra, Sanjay Dutt, Johnny Lever, Esha Gupta, Crystal The Monkey, Aftab Shivdasani, Rajpal Yadav, Boman Irani
Director: Indra Kumar
The story of Total Dhamaal (the third installment of the Dhamaal series,) tells a pretty simple tale. A dying man reveals a secret, a Rs. 50 crores booty he stashed away in a forest in Janakpur, India. The hope of finding this life changing amount of money sends a group of crazy people literally on a wild goose chase to the remote jungles. The group includes a constantly fighting couple (Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit,) greedy siblings (Arshad Warsi and Javed Jaffrey,) local villains (Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Mishra) and a police commissioner (Boman Irani.) The dying man pulls the trigger on the search for a crazy treasure and this leaves us with a serious question. Do they finally find the treasure or is it just another search for the pot of the gold at the end of the rainbow?
Cars ramming into trucks, roaring tigers, a crazy monkey and bridges falling through half way in the movie, Total Dhamaal is one long ride into the unknown. As a director, Indra Kumar has left no stone unturned when it comes to creating a crazy Indian adventure. While the beginning parts of the movie set the scenes for a pretty exciting adventure ride, the beginning gives away most of what is happening.
Despite the plot being slightly weaker than the bridge which falls half way through, the film pulls through because of the impressive star cast. Opening to the highly hyped and pumped up title song which introduces the cast, Total Dhamaal progresses toward a slightly weird turn of events.
However, even though there are certain holes in the script and the story lacks luster, the cast does a brilliant job. Anil Kapoor is his usual comic self. Madhuri Dixit sheds off her charming look for a slightly negative role and the Arshad Warsi – Javed Jaffrey duo, brings their 'A' game to the table. Boman Irani plays an extremely convincing cop, with Ajay Devgn playing his character to perfection, like always!
Although the film could have been written better, there are more than a few hilarious moments. With the first two parts of the Dhamaal series being brilliant, this third part falls a few steps short of something really amazing. A comedy of errors, this movie had all the trappings of a truly brilliant adventure, director Indra Kumar just doesn't hit the nail on the head. Although seemingly drawing influences from movies like It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World and the Hangover Series, this movie could have given us more than just a handful of laughs but fails to deliver what was promised. All in all, Total Dhamaal is a one time watch at best.
Movie Review
Kesari Trailer Finally Out
Kesari, the highly talked about Akshay Kumar movie, finally has a trailer to its name. After three back to back teasers enticing and drawing in the audience, the trailer finally gives a complete picture. While the teasers showed us various shades of Akshay's character in the film, this trailer talks about the intense battle which was the Battle of Saragarhi.
Filled with action, drama and amazing fight sequences, the trailer sees with how much pride the Sikhs are filled, fighting for their rights and their homeland. The just dropped trailer shows the amount of courage 21 Sikh soldiers had to fight against 10,000 Afghan tribesmen. Watch the trailer here!
An incredible true story of valour, sacrifice & bravery – told like never before! #KesariTrailer out now – https://t.co/eDqk8Lts6t@ParineetiChopra @SinghAnurag79 @karanjohar @apoorvamehta18 @SunirKheterpal @DharmaMovies #CapeOfGoodFilms @iAmAzure @ZeeStudios_ #Kesari
— Akshay Kumar (@akshaykumar) February 21, 2019
Everything about this trailer is quite an eye opener. From the music, to the action and to the entire sets, the video takes us through one of the "bravest battles ever fought," according to the posters and trailers! Akshay Kumar's perfect portrayal of the leader of the Sikhs and the way he commands the entire force, gives one goosebumps. An untold story about a war which changed the course of Indian history, this trailer leaves one wanting for more.
For the uninitiated, the Battle of Saragarhi took place on the 12th of September, 1897. Ordered by the British, 21 Sikh soldiers were tasked with the job of protecting the forts of Lockhart and Gulistan, on the border of Afghanistan. What history does not tell us is, the soldiers were fighting for their homeland because of the love they had for it and not just because of the orders given to them. The trailer also gives us a look into how proud the soldiers were of being Sikhs. Everything about this movie promises to be a treat like never before!
Directed by Anurag Singh, this movie also stars Parineeti Chopra in the lead role! Kesari: The Untold Story, is all set to hit the screens on the 21st of March this year and we cannot wait! Can you?
Bollywood Films Based On Real Life Events
The history of India is rich and colourful, with a host of interesting historical events to its name. When you combine these events with Bollywood, you get to ride on the magical journey of the past with more than a sense of realism. From heinous crimes, to tales of murders and to realising the truth is far more devastating to watch on the big screen than reading about it, these movies have more than shown us the other side of the coin!
1. Bandit Queen
A Shekhar Kapoor directorial, Bandit Queen tells the story of Phoolan Devi, one of the most feared bandit queens in the Indian history. Telling the tale of how Phoolan Devi was married off as a child, this movie talks about what she had to do in order to get over her social circumstances. Abused and molested for most of her childhood, Phoolan Devi lived a troubled life. Her rise to the position of a bandit queen was the show of strength and the fight she put up against patriarchy. Kapoor's Bandit Queen showed her journey and told us the story of what happens when you are pushed against the wall. Do you succumb to your fate or do you fight back and make a name for yourself? Hard hitting and portrayed to perfection, this story needed to be told, showing us that no matter what is portrayed, there is always more to see than what meets the eye.
2. Black Friday
Anurag Kashyap's directorial debut, Black Friday was based on the 1993 Mumbai blasts and was rumoured to have been inspired by Hussain Zaidi's novel of the same name. Opening to scenes of the blasts and talking about the aftermath of the event, this movie received criticism for more than three years before its release. Hard hitting and extremely realistic, this movie focused on Dawood Ibrahim and his family and about what triggered the blasts. When you see a major event being depicted on the silver screen, the harsh realities of the world come as nothing short of a wake up call.
3. Firaaq
We know the Godhra riots of 2002 in Gujarat had a life changing impact on major sections of the Indian society. How do we know this? Because of the vast literature written about this very subject. However, when Nandita Das made a movie about this, what we saw quite literally shook us. Telling the story of how ordinary people were affected by the severity of the blasts, Firaaq gave us a clear insight into how many people's lives were changed by the riots. With an impressive star cast, the movie won not one, but two national awards for its depiction of what happened after the riots.
4. Shahid
Based on Shahid Azmi, a lawyer/activist who was gunned to death for fighting for the rights of Muslim men, Shahid tells a truth not many of us want to accept. A lot of people misunderstood why Shahid Azmi was doing what he did, which was fighting for the Muslim men wrongfully charged as terrorists, under the Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA.) Showing us we as an audience are so natural at jumping to conclusions when someone does the unexpected, this movie told a story which needed to be told.
5. No One Killed Jessica
How many times have you heard of someone being murdered with a room full of witnesses and justice being delivered? Not many, right? This is exactly what happened when the brutal murder of Jessica Lal took several years to solve, despite there being more than enough witnesses. Showing the true powers of the rich and famous, No One Killed Jessica was all about how journalistic integrity brought justice to a family which lost more than it deserved. While the media is often portrayed as a negative industry when it comes to cases like these, the fact that this movie showed the opposite side was quite an eye opener.
Bollywood as an industry has a strong responsibility of telling a story exactly the way it happened. While a few creative liberties can be taken, the end result leaves us filled with wonder and awe. If you think we missed out on any other movies based on true incidents, comment and let us know!
Badla First Song Kyun Rabba Released
Kyun Rabba, the first song from Taapsee Pannu's and Amitabh Bachchan's highly anticipated film, Badla, is finally out! While the recently released trailer shows us about what the movie is, without really divulging the details, the song gives us a little more insight.
Composed by Amaal Mallik and sung by Armaan Malik, the first song has been shot through the point of view of the character played by Taapsee Pannu. Bringing out an array of emotions and feelings, Kyun Rabba shows how a woman deals with a broken heart and with unrequited love. Listen to the song from Badla here and now!
Dil haste haste roh padaa, dard aansuon mein hai bada…
Watch the first song from #Badla, and let its beautiful lyrics touch your soul#KyunRabba https://t.co/z0RyWHo9IA @SrBachchan @sujoy_g @AmaalMallik @ArmaanMalik22 @kumaarofficial @redchilliesent @iamazure @zeemusiccompany
— taapsee pannu (@taapsee) February 20, 2019
Centering primarily around the character played by Taapsee Pannu, this song is all about accepting that life doesn't always go the way you want. With different storylines being played out, this song also hints at the fact that Taapsee's character may be having an extramarital affair. With not a lot of information revealed about this part in the trailer or any of the posters, the twist in the song adds a certain sense of intrigue to the story.
Speaking about the song, composer Amaal Mallik said in a statement, "I like to keep things simple, especially for a song that is set in a thriller like Badla, where the emotions need to be conveyed with complexity. So, I compose a melody first and then place the arrangements for the song. Here, we've opted for an alternate rock feel with an Indian soundscape."
With the song being all things simple and easy, Kyun Rabba doesn't act like a filler, but instead, pushes the movie forward. Directed by Sujoy Ghosh, Badla brings back Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu after Pink, their first film together. While Taapsee Pannu plays the role of a woman trying to defend herself, Amitabh Bachchan plays the role of her lawyer. Badla is scheduled to hit the screens on the 8th of March this year!
Photograph Trailer Released
Photograph, Ritesh Batra's latest directorial, has been hitting the headlines for all the right reasons! With an impressive cast, Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Sanya Malhotra, Batra tells a beautiful story. Shot through the streets of Mumbai, the recently dropped trailer of Photograph gives one a glimpse of love in a different way altogether.
The two and a half minute long trailer shows how both Rafi (Nawazuddin) and Miloni (Sanya Malhotra) start falling in love with each other in strange circumstances. Desperately trying to avoid marriage, the trailer shows how both Miloni and Rafi live their lives on their own terms. With the first seeds of romance being sown when Rafi takes a mesmerising picture of Miloni in front of the Gateway of India, the rest of the trailer shows an interesting display of emotions. Watch the trailer here!
प्यारी दादी आपकी बहु को लेकर आ रहा हूँ 15 मार्च को…
नज़दीकी सिनमाघरों में।
तब तक उसकी ये झलक देख लीजिये।।
Trailer Out Now #Photograph @riteshbatra @sanyamalhotra07 @AmazonStudios @PhotographAmzn https://t.co/w1GV5i7V8a
— Nawazuddin Siddiqui (@Nawazuddin_S) February 18, 2019
Just when Rafi and Miloni start developing a bond, Rafi learns of his grandmother, played by Farrukh Jaffar, not taking her tablets. Why? Rafi is rejecting every girl he sees and the very idea of marriage in itself. Introducing Miloni as his love interest, Rafi opens the doors to a new story entirely. Through the trailer, one sees the bond growing stronger in a way which makes you wonder if the bond is fabricated, or if there is a chance of a true romance developing!
Just like The Lunchbox, Ritesh Batra has once again done wonders and brought two extremely unlikely people together in a beautiful manner. Watching an unusual friendship develop into a stronger relationship is going to be quite a treat to watch. With Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Sanya Malhotra bringing their A games to the table, Photograph promises to be an engaging movie! Also starring Sachin Khedekar, Geetanjali Kulkarni, Robin Das, Jim Sarbh and Denzil Smith, Photograph is scheduled to hit the screens on the 15th of March this year!

The Trades as Practiced in the Homeland: Part II
By Alfred Opp, Vancouver, British Columbia
Edited by Connie Dahlke, Walla Walla, Washington
Tailors and Shoemakers
The tailors and shoemakers were tradesmen whose work shifted with the styles but whose methods changed little. The acquisition of sewing machines did make life easier for them – the majority of changes were on account of fashion. To get a new pair of shoes, the customer had to be measured and then endure fitting after fitting until the shoes were finally finished. Everyday footwear could be purchased by the pair at the marketplace from a Russian or Bulgarian merchant, but these were not a precise fit. In our town we had good shoemakers who produced quality products – they specialized in Shaft boots, Sunday shoes and specialties such as wedding shoes. Poor folks and foreign workers often wore Papuscha – a shoe made of one piece of leather. The shoe was a wrap-around style that had a pointed toe and was held together with a drawstring. It looked as though the leather had been pressed over a shoe mold to retain the shape. These came cheap in a few sizes that served to fit most feet – almost "one size fits all." Our people didn't use them that much. Mother said she did wear them sometimes during the summer – they came in handy to save her better shoes and were easy to wear. Dad had a pair of Shaft boots but rarely wore them. Grandpa wore his Shaft boots more. Grandpa never wore socks in his boots, but rather wore Fusslappen (foot wraps) – soft cloths that he wrapped around his feet. In the army this was all that they used. The Fusslappen kept their feet warm and were easy to keep clean. There was a bit of an art as to how to wrap them so that they stayed wrapped. In the army there was not much choice as to shoe sizes – if your boots were too large you filled in the gap with something. A sock would wear out in no time, and who would mend it? When I was working for the Polish farmer in 1945, I had no socks, either. I used an old shirt and made Fusslappen.
I remember so well when Grandpa would take his Shaft boots off. He would sit down on a chair and ask Grandma to help him. Grandma would take one boot between her legs with her back to Grandpa, who then used his other foot to press against Grandma's back. With Grandpa pressing and Grandma pulling, the boot came off.
To save shoes from wearing out too fast, people had the shoemaker install half-round plates on the heel and a plate on the toe. The soles were spiked with cap nails to make them last longer. Ladies wore no high heels. My aunt had a pair that she used rarely, and only at a dance.
We had tailors of mixed nationality in town who did tailoring for men: Golle – a Bulgar; a Russian and some locals. Dressmakers for ladies were plentiful. They varied both in price and in fashion orientation. Ready-made suits were very rare and hard to find in our area. As ours was a country village, our clothes had to be suited to our environment and usage. Our people felt they were better off getting their clothing made locally. Everyday clothes they either made themselves or found someone who sewed clothing cheaply. Shirts and underwear were all homemade. Sunday clothes were a different matter. Here people wanted to be more fashionable and so went to a tailor of their choice.
Because winters in Teplitz were very cold, the use of sheepskin pelts for warmth was very important. Sewing with pelts became a specialty of the foreigners, and they were very good at it. The pelts, used to line coats, had to be pieced together very neatly. The stitching had to be done neatly and strongly so that the seams did not show and the pelt lining held together. Pelts were also used for collars and cuffs on men's and women's dress-coats, and for sheep-skin caps. For these items a type of pelt called Karakul was used. A Karakul was a pelt from a lamb that was forced into premature birth from its mother. These Karakul pelts had shiny, curly hair and were a pricey product. High quality pelts were used on the ladies' garments, with lesser quality used for men's collars and caps. These sheepskin caps were an age-old tradition in south-east Europe and the Caucasus, and our ancestors adapted to them quickly and wore them proudly.
Alfred Opp is the author of "Pawns on the World Stage" - the memoirs of his childhood in Teplitz, Bessarabia and the experiences of his family in war-torn Europe (Poland during 1941-1945 before they fled to East Germany in 1945, then the reconstruction of West Germany 1945-1955) - available from the NDSU website.

Villa Elisabeth in Berlin
Villa Elisabeth is a private boarding school in Wildau, a village just outside Berlin surrounded by beautiful lakes. The school is situated in a historic mansion, built at the end of the 19th century. To get to the city center of Berlin it takes about 50 minutes (more about Wildau). The school is small and international students are taken care of very well. GLS has placed several exchange students here, some of them staying 2 or 3 years in order to pass the Abitur.
Villa Elisabeth demands German on level B2 - if your German is lower than that, you can do a preparation course first and then switch to this school.

A school bus picks boarding students up in the morning and brings them back after class. The boarding conditions are very comfortable - in 2-bed-rooms with own bath. See both the school (A) and the boarding house (B) on a Google map.

This article is part of a series about how to work together well in a collaboration with your coauthors when using LaTeX. You can sign up to get the rest of the articles devilered by email to your inbox each week.
In this article I'm going to discuss how to keep track of the changes that have been made to a document. You'll be able to easily see what has changed since you last worked on it, see which parts have been edited by who, and undo any older changes that you don't like. Sound useful? Then keep reading!
The program I'm going to recommend to do this is called git. I have no idea why it's called git, other than it being a short and memorable name, but it's a really powerful program. Before we proceed I should warn you that git is a command line program and to use it you need to type in commands rather than pointing and clicking. As a LaTeX user this probably isn't too unfamiliar to you but you should be prepared. At the end of this article I'll talk about some point and click interfaces to git that you might find easier.
Git is a bit like LaTeX in the sense that it can look quite intimidating if you're never used it before but once you've understood some of the key concepts it's not so bad. This does mean that it might not be for everyone though. I recommend that you skim through this article to get a feel of what git can do and then decide if it's worth your time to learn properly (I certainly won't be able to teach everything in a single article).
Let's start with a brief overview of what git does. When you save your LaTeX file you are normally overwriting the old version of the file. If you've deleted some text then this is gone forever, and if you've made some changes then you can't get the previous version back. With git, you can take a snapshot of your file whenever you want to so that you can always come back to that version, even if you make changes in the mean time. Git lets you manage and view all of the different versions, including letting you restore an older version and see a summary of the changes made between versions. Git is also really useful for working across multiple computers, or with your collaborators. It comes with built in tools for sending your changes directly to your collaborators computers, or grabbing any changes they have made and syncing them to your computer. The real power comes if you've both made changes and need to combine them. Since git has a record of different versions, it can look back and find the latest version you both had in common and then replay all of the changes that you've both made. Hopefully if you haven't been stepping on each others toes then both sets of your changes can be automatically combined into one latest version. Even if you've both edited the same parts, git points this out and lets you decide how best to fix it.
I'll talk about all of these features in turn and how to use them in git. First of all though, you're going to need to install git. You can get it from http://git-scm.com along with installation instructions for different operating systems. The git-scm website also has some very good documention and tutorials that can teach a lot more about git than I will be able to here.
Once you have git installed, go to the command line and navigate to the directory with your work in and then run the following command to set up git:
cd my-project
git init
Git needs somewhere to store all of the different versions of your files, and this command tells git to set up a directory called .git to store these in. In general you shouldn't touch any of the files in the .git directory by hand, only use the
git command.
Git only tracks changes to files that you tell it about so at the moment it's still not doing anything. If you have a file called project.tex in this directory then you can tell git to monitor it with the following command:
git add project.tex
You can also add entire directories using this command and use a wildcard (*) to add lots of files. E.g.
git add figures/ # Adds the figures directory
git add *.tex # Adds all .tex files in the current directory
git add . # Adds all of the files (. is the current directory)
Now that git is monitoring those files, you can create your first saved version, which in git is called a commit. To do this, run the following command
git commit -m "My first commit"
You should provide a message in quotes describing changes you have made since the last version to make it easier to find this version later on in the version list.
Gotcha #1: You need to run git add whenever you change a file, not just at the beginning. This tells git that it should include these changes in the next snapshot. Alternatively you can pass the
-a option to git commit to tell it to commit all changes to files that it is monitoring:
git commit -a -m "My second commit"
Hopefully you've made it this far, because now git starts to pay off. After you've been editing for a while and have created a few versions you can go back and view how the document has changed over time. The following command will give you a list of the versions, with the summary messages you've passed (so make sure they're useful!):
git log
The output from git log looks like this:

My first commit
Each entry in
git log has a funny list of numbers and letters at the top of it. These are unique identifiers that correspond to your versions internally in git. If you want to ask git about a specific version, you can tell it which version using this identifier. For example, the
git show command tells you what has changed between the version you ask about and the previous one (in this case we ask about the version labelled "My second commit" and it returns the changes made in that version):
git show f69606d7e24ad45b31bb6eb4b38192bd07f274fc --word-diff=color
The output is

TheA quick brown fox jumps over the lazysleazy dog
The second half of the output here shows you any changes that have been made. Text that was added is in highlighted green and text that was removed is in red. By default git compares documents line by line, so that if anything has changed on a line then it shows the whole line as changed. With LaTeX documents lines can be quite long and it can be difficult to quickly see what has changed between similar lines. The option
--word-diff=color tells git to instead compare the changes word by word and makes it much clearer.
These features are very useful if you want to see the changes made by one of your collaborators (we'll come to passing around versions a little later), or to remind yourself what you were working on last time.
Of course, you don't want to just be able to see changes, you want to be able to go back and use the history to undo changes. Perhaps you want to restore the document to a previous version because you don't like the changes you've made or you realise you made a mistake. Git doesn't just rewind the the history of your document because then you would lose the changes made between then and now. Instead, git lets you restore the files you are working with to an earlier version by creating a new version which comes after all of the intervening history. If you decide you didn't actually want to do this after all then nothing has been lost.
To restore your files to an earlier version, simply run:
git checkout f69606d7e24ad45b31bb6eb4b38192bd07f274fc *
This tells git to 'checkout' the files from the older version specified by the third argument (remember we refer to versions by their long identifier of numbers and letters). The files in your project now have their contents restored to the older version, but you still need to create a new version to mark this change in git:
git commit -a -m "Restore files to previous version"
You could of course edit your files at this previous version before creating a new version in git.
Another common situation is you decide that you want to undo only one set of changes from a while ago. Perhaps you've edited the document in three steps: 1) Adding an abstract, 2) Updating your acknowledgements, 3) Adding in a figure. At each step you've created a new version in git, but now you decide that you didn't really want to update you acknowledgements. Unfortunately this is sandwiched between other changes so a simple rollback like before won't do. Fear not, because git is clever enough to do what you want, with the revert command:
git revert f69606d7e24ad45b31bb6eb4b38192bd07f274fc
The final parameter should be the identifier of the version that introduced the changes you want to undo.
Gotcha #2:
git revert undoes the changes introduced by the version that you pass to it. It does not revert the project to that version. This is a commonly confused command so be careful! To put the whole project back to a previous version, use the first method described at the top of this section.
So all of this is great, but where git really excels is in letting you easily pass around your changes to your collaborators in a way that makes sure everyone stays in sync and nothing gets overwritten or forgotten about. In fact, this is git's primary purpose. Git was originally written to keep track of the source code of the Linux kernel and to make it possible to manage the contributions from thousands of developers all over the world. Collaborating on a paper in LaTeX is on a slightly smaller scale, but the principle is the same. Git has built in tools that will connect to your collaborator's computer and pass over the latest changes you've made, or download the changes they have made to your computer. If you and your collaborator have both made changes in the mean time, git can use the history which is stored with your documents to find the last place that you were both working on the document and then automatically apply the changes you have both made since then. If you've been editing different parts of the document then it can combine your changes automatically, but if you've both made changes to the same sections then it will hightlight these and ask you to combine the two manually.
First you need to tell git about the other computers you want to send your changes to and receive changes from. Generally people find it easier to have a single server that everyone talks to directly rather than trying to send your changes to each other individually. This way the central server can store the canonical version of your document and everyone knows where to get the latest version. If you are in a university department or workplace you might be able to ask your IT staff to set up a server for you with a git repository. There are also some great online services that will provide this, along with clear instructions for getting set up and using git with them. Github and Bitbucket are two good examples. These are both aimed towards hosting source code for computer programs but work equally well with LaTeX documents.
To tell git how to connect to the central server or your collaborators computer run the following command:
git remote add origin firstname.lastname@example.com:username/my-project.git
The example given assumes you are using Github. This tells git to let you connect to a server which you want to refer to as 'origin' and is located at the URL given by the final argument. If you are using another service you will need to find out from that what to replace the final argument with. In subsequent commands we can now refer to this remote computer as 'origin' rather than needing to remember its full name. You can call the server anything you want but 'origin' has become accepted within the git community as the default name for the main server that you want to stay in sync with.
To send your changes to the central server you can now run:
git push origin master
Git uses the term 'pushing' to mean sending your changes to someone else. Here, origin is the reference to another computer that you defined above. The master option tells git which branch to send your changes to on the other computer. Git lets you have multiple versions of your files at once, with the different versions stored in what are called branches. I won't go into this in any more detail here but the default branch is called 'master' and is the one that you will normally be using.
The other possiblity is you want to download changes made by someone else. This is a process which git calls 'pulling'. To do this, simply run
git pull origin master
This will then download any changes that have been made to the document on the central server and integrate them with the version on your computer. If you have made changes as well then git will try to automatically merge the two (or more) sets of changes using the intermediate versions to guide it. Hopefully the two sets of changes will be automatically merged by git but if not it will tell you and let you know how to go about manually combining the sections that it couldn't do automatically.
Hopefully you're still with me by now and looking forward to diving into learning git properly. It would take me far longer than this article to give you a complete guide, but I hope to have given enough of a flavour of what is possible with git and the benefits that it provides to encourage to you to learn how to use it. I recommend the book Pro Git by Scott Chacon as the next step in your study. The book is aimed at beginners but goes into detail about almost every aspect of git in later chapters. This is free to download electronically or can purchased in print via its website. Before you go though, I'll give you a few tips that are specific to LaTeX that you probably won't find in the common git literature.
The following command gives you a list of the files that git is aware of having changed, and a list of files that git isn't watching:
git status
This is really useful for getting the status of your document and checking whether or not it's a good time to create a new version. Unfortunately the output of this command can get a bit crowded since LaTeX produces a lot of extra files that you probably don't want to take versions of. Things like .aux files, .toc, and .bbl files are changed everytime you run LaTeX but don't necessarily reflect any changes made to your document. There is no point keeping them versioned since they'll just make your logs and diff more crowded without giving you any useful information. Fortunatelly you can tell git to ignore these files. Create a new file in your project folder called .gitignore and put the following content into it (from here):
# In .gitignore
This tells git to ignore all files with those file extensions. This also allows you to run the command
git add . to add all of your changes without adding in the extra files that are generated by LaTeX.
So that's almost all for this article. But first I promised you I'd mention point and click interfaces to git. I don't find that these make git much easier to learn since you still need to understand the underlying concepts, but some people prefer using them to the command line. I don't have any particular recommendations but the official git website has a nice page of graphical interfaces to git depending on which operating system you are using.
I hope I've been able to give you enough of an overview of git to persuade you that it's worth learning to use. Like LaTeX the learning curve can be steep but git is such a powerful tool once you know how to use it that it's very worth it. If you have any comments or questions about anything I've said please get in touch with me at james - at - sharelatex.com. I try hard to answer every email I receive.

The First Rule of Swimming
Courtney Angela Brkic, 2013
Little, Brown
336 pp.
A woman must leave her island home to search for her missing sister-and confront the haunted history of her family.
Magdalena does not panic when she learns that her younger sister has disappeared. A free-spirit, Jadranka has always been prone to mysterious absences. But when weeks pass with no word, Magdalena leaves the isolated Croatian island where their family has always lived and sets off to New York to find her sister. Her search begins to unspool the dark history of their family, reaching back three generations to a country torn by war.
A haunting and sure-footed debut by an award-winning writer, The First Rule of Swimming explores the legacy of betrayal and loss in a place where beauty is fused inextricably with hardship, and where individuals are forced to make wrenching choices as they are swept up in the tides of history. (From the publisher.)

What choices did you make?
Posted 01 July 2011 - 08:22 AM
I ended up being mostly merciful. Spared Rajani, decided to help out the Cyclopses. Though I did give up the Dapper Old Gent to Wulf. Spared Jeyne in the end as I had promised the Queen.
I especially enjoyed the ending slide about Jeyne. I ended up delivering Jeyne to the Queen in the end, and the Queen was compassionate towards Jeyne. But Jeyne ended up assassinated, strangled in her bed. And she had not bothered to defend herself from her assailants. Thought that was really nicely written.
Was surprised that the Heart of Nagog wasn't mentioned in the end, though if you give the house to Leona there is a rather funny bit devoted to that. Was also too bad that we didn't get any ending for the First People (or any choice there for that matter), nor did we hear anything more of what happened to Phineas and Roderick.

And I agree about Jeyne. The choice to keep her alive and let her speak to the public was my favorite choice of the game (although I played with Lucas). That gave the story a nice touch. Actually, the entire ending felt very satisfying.

Freed the Krug.
The Baron and Hans had to divide the land.
Helped Cyclopses.
Sent Rajani back with a warning.
Spared Jeyne.
Did not pass any judgement on the criminals.
All I can think of atm.
Edit: Dapper Old Gent joined the Legion.

Do these choices actually change how certain things play out, or is the only effect the end-game slide show?

If your talking about Glitterdelve there was a very good reason why you had to burn Jeynne's army. It had something to do with them having overwhelmingly large numbers and an active will to kill anyone who doesn't look like them (And them some, possibly). You couldn't just stay down there and kill the all sort of number count.

-Kept mansion for Legion
-Left the Krug in jail
-Sided with the Baron in the land dispute

-Dapper Gent w/the Legion
-Spared Jane/she had to make amends (not w/the Queen)
-Sided w/the Queen morally that the trap in the mines seemed dishonorable. (but in RL sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do)
....I'm sure there were at least a few other minor influence/mini-decisions made but can't think of them offhand.
Posted 03 July 2011 - 12:32 AM
Sent Rajani back with a warning.
Freed the 'Krug' but told him to leave the city for his own safety.
Baron Barrenbaron and Hans had to divide the land.
Sided with the Cyclops.
Spared the Dapper Old Gent and made him rejoin the Legion.
Spared Jeyne- asked her to side with the Legion's cause (results in her being declared an apostate but she still lives in the ending slide).
I tried to play the game as idealistically as possible and I was really surprised that I was able to get away with this in an Obsidian game (aside from the Dapper Old Gent and Wulf's epilogues the rest of the ending slides were pretty cheerful)
Posted 03 July 2011 - 10:29 AM
I spared Rajani and she went back to Jeyne. She and her people ended up pledging their loyalty to Anjali in the ending slides.
I freed the Krug and he stayed in Stonebridge.
Barrenbaron and Hans had to share their land.
I sided with the Cyclopses, who created a new working union and were allowed to leave the Foundry for the first time in a century. I particularly liked the images for that one, like the one with the Cyclop coming outside and shielding his eye from the sun's light.
I gave the Gent to the Stonebridge authorities. He was hanged and his body disappeared the following night. Wulf became Mayor (although I still don't understand what power does the Mayor have in Stonebridge), I hope his successor as Chief Constable will mix up the ranks with humans and automatons.
In Glitterdelve, I showed loyalty to the Crown at every turn, and accepted to spare Jeyne's life when asked.
I spared Jeyne in the end and asked her to help me rebuild. The ending slide indicates that she was declared apostate for asking the people to stop fighting the Legion... which makes me think that the Azunite Church wasn't simply following their Saint, but actually wanted power over all Ehb.
No ending slide for Phineas makes me think that he may have a bigger role to play in possible extensions or DLCs. After all, he too has a lot to rebuild, starting with the Glitterdelve and the knowledge of Geomancy.
Basically, I tried to play an idealistic, very close to the Legion's ideals, Lucas. That's why I gave the Gent to Stonebridge and why I spared Jeyne and asked her to help us rebuild.
Also, Hugh Montbarron was an ass for trying to exploit that kind of thing from someone. Very nice, mister!

Surface-to-air 'Akash' missile test fired successfully
"The sophisticated Akash missile was test fired twice in quick succession from launch complex-3 of ITR at about 11.55 am and 12 noon," defence sources said.
Describing both the trials as 'fully successful', ITR Director M K V Prasad said the whole exercise was carried out as part of a user trial by the Indian Air Force.
Each missile targeted a toe body supported by Pilot Less Target Aircraft (PTA) 'Lakshya', defence sources said.
"During the trial, each missile aimed at intercepting a toe body supported by a PTA flown a couple of minutes earlier from another launch complex, at a definite altitude over the sea," sources said.
Akash is a medium range surface-to-air anti-aircraft defence system developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) as part of the Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme.
While the Air-force version has already been inducted, the Army version is in the final stage of induction into the armed forces, they said.
The missile has a strike range of 25 km and can carry a warhead of 60 kgs. It has the capability to target aircraft up to 30 km away and is packed with a battery that can track and attack several targets simultaneously, they said.
With the capability to neutralise aerial targets like fighter jets, cruise missiles and air-to-surface missiles, defence experts compare Akash to the MIM-104 Patriot surface-to-air missile system of USA.
The missile was last test fired from the same base on February 24, 2014.

A Burr Oak woman charged in the shooting death of Dennis Brooks March 13, had her case bound over to circuit court Friday.
A Burr Oak woman charged in the shooting death of 33-year-old Dennis Brooks had her case bound over to circuit court Friday.
Maria Audrey-Louise Williams, 34, is accused of shooting Brooks after the two were involved in an argument March 13 on Townline Road in Burr Oak Township.
After a 45-minute hearing Friday, St. Joseph County 3B District Judge Robert Pattison ruled that
St. Joseph County Prosecutor John McDonough had shown that probable cause exists that Williams committed the offense of murder and felony firearm.
No date has been set for her circuit court arraignment.
After the hearing, Williams asked for a new attorney. She had been represented Howard Bush, who was appointed as her counsel. Pattison granted the request.
Both McDonough and Bush waived the right to make an opening statement Friday.
Three people testified at the hearing. Taking the stand first was Brooks' mother, Cathy Ann Brooks.
She testified under the questioning of McDonough that Dennis was picked up by Williams at their home on Burr Oak Road around 8:30 p.m. March 13. She said she believed it was just the two of them. Cathy Brooks also testified that Williams owned a handgun.
McDonough asked Cathy what Dennis' mood was liked when they left. She said he was in a good mood.
McDonough asked her if Dennis returned home.
"No, he did not," Cathy answered.
Under cross-examination by Bush, Brooks was asked about her son's methamphetamine use and if he appeared to have used any. She replied that she saw no indication of meth use.
Taking the stand next was John Greer, Williams' brother.
Greer testified that Williams had left their home on Fifth Street in Burr Oak, but didn't say where she was going. Later that night, he received a call from an upset Williams saying she wanted to meet him outside, that she had just shot Brooks.
"She said they fought, he hit me and I shot him," Greer said.
Greer testified that Williams told him where Brooks was, and Greer called 911.
Bush asked Greer about how Williams acted when she came home. He said she was hysterical, visibly upset and that she asked him to call 911 for her.
The final witness of the day was Det./Sgt Lonnie Palmer of the St. Joseph County Sheriff's Department. Palmer testified that he oversaw investigation of the murder.
Palmer said Williams was taken to the sheriff's department by Burr Oak police for questioning that night. He said that during a videotaped interview, Williams admitted to shooting Brooks. She told him the gun would be found in her purse inside her vehicle, a black suburban. She also admitted it was her gun, Palmer said.
Under cross-examination, Bush asked Palmer if Williams was arrested and if she received her Miranda rights. Palmer said she was not under arrest at the time of the interview and that she was read her Miranda Rights and signed a waiver that she did receive her rights and agreed to talk to Palmer.
Palmer said it wasn't until the interview concluded, and after she admitted to shooting Brooks, that she was arrested.
Palmer also testified that a search warrant for Williams' vehicle was obtained and that it was taken to the department, where crime scene technicians searched the vehicle. He said one bullet was recovered from Brooks' body.
Palmer was also questioned about Brooks' meth habit. He acknowledged that Williams had made a call to him about finding paraphernalia. Palmer, who also heads the St. Joseph County Area Narcotics Unit, said he submitted that information to SCAN officers for follow-up.
In his closing statement Friday, McDonough said he believed probable cause was shown by the testimony of the three witnesses.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for this wonderful site regarding Paulstown. As I live in Australia, information regarding Paulstown can be difficult to come by. My ancestors also lived in the Paulstown area, from the late 1600s to c1900. My great great grandfather was William Flood (1817-1885) who lived in Paulstown Castle until his death. The family eventually sold the castle to the Healy family in 1892. I also had relatives living at Viewmount, Floodhall & Farmley (formerly Burn(t)church) all near Paulstown. William's 2 sons (William and Ernest) both emigrated to Australia in 1856 and 1862 respectively.
Keep up the great work,
Neville Flood
HI Neville, I am researching the Floods, have been for years actually. My husbands great grandmother was Annie Josephine Flood , her father John Hatton Flood ( took years to find that out) If your interested in comparing notes. We are in Australia too and have your family in our history. My email firstname.lastname@example.com cheers Andrea Johnston
hi joe, i am trying to trace my grandfather john blanch . i know from his royal irish regiment papers 1891-1902 that he was born in the parish of paulstown in or near castlecomer,circa 1872and joined the british army in 1891. he lists his next of kin as his mother rose tobin and his brother william blanch his mothers address is listed as baurnafea/castlewarren. i was wondering if my grandfather may have gone to school in baurnafea in his childhood/youth.if so your records may possibly show this so i am willing to spend $10 to find out. the problem is that your web site does not show how to clearly make a requisition to do a school record search so basically i want to know if the name john blanch or maybe blanchfield shows up with his mother as rose tobin in your baurnafea school records.so if you could email me with details i would be most grateful……….regards………peter.
My great grandfather john blanchfield was born in Baunreagh Carlow which is next to baurnafea Kilkenny. He had a brother william who lived and died in Baunreagh. He himself went to Dublin but was never in army, although my grandmother used to say a soldier relative of her father used to visit in the 1890s. There was a brother James who died around 1910 in baurnafea. Because of the distances being so small, and boundaries uncertain, and the fact that castle warren was the closest post office to everyone, things can be murky. But blanch in that area was shorthand for blanchfield and both names were used interchangeably in my family, some people using both. My gran was baptized Roseanne Blanche, married as r blanchfield, eg. But no Tobins in family.
Kind regards

This is the second part of a series by James Kidder on the human fossil record. The first part can be found here.
One of the most fruitful and exciting areas of research in palaeoanthropology is the search for the last common ancestor to the higher apes and humans. This question is inextricably tied to concepts of what separates humanity from the animals around us. This is a question that has spiritual as well as physical ramifications. In this set of posts, we are dealing with what makes us human from a biophysical perspective.
Traditionally, paleoanthropologists have considered the hallmark of humanity to be habitual bipedalism. While we share many characteristics in common with the higher apes, this trait alone is practiced by no other animal. Some animals practice facultative bipedalism, allowing them to go short distances on two legs when necessary, but only humans use it as their only form of locomotion. Put a man on all fours and even a squirrel can outrun him. Bipedalism is a skill that we learn early in life, before we are sentient and even understand what makes us different from the animals around us. It is programmed into us.
Bipedalism is marked by a number of anatomical modifications to the standard primate body. These center on the pelvis and involve changes in the head (cranium) and the rest of the body (postcranium), reflecting a shifting of the center of balance from the abdominal cavity to the hip. In mammals, the hip is composed of three mirrored sets of bones: the ilium, the ischium and the pubis (Figure 1). The top part of the leg fits into the bottom-rear portion of the ilium, into a round socket called the acetabulum. It is one of two ball-and-socket joints in the body, the other being where the arm fits into the scapula at the top of your shoulder.
Where the two pubis bones fit together in the front and the two ilia meet in the back with the sacrum forms the birth canal. In chimpanzees and gorillas, the ilium is narrow and tall (Figure 2). Consequently, the connection to the upper leg bone, the femur, is straight up and down. In humans, the ilium is flat and flared, creating an outward bowing of the top of the femur, which allows for the balance necessary for walking upright (see Figure 1). This, in turn, creates what is known as the valgus knee, where the bottom of the femur meets the top of the large lower leg bone, the tibia, at an angle. The fact that the two bones meet at an angle provides for a better balance of the body mass for upright walking. In contrast, when higher apes such as gorillas and chimpanzees stand, the femur and the tibia are both perpendicular to the ground, resulting in a straight knee joint. Consequently, when chimpanzees walk upright, they swing side to side in an ungainly fashion to simulate the balance that is inherent in human walking.
Other changes are present above the hip, as well. Because they are quadrupedal, chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans have a straight backbone, or vertebral column (Figure 3). In humans, the vertebral column resembles a double "s" shape, which balances the torso above the hip (and creates the back problems we suffer later in life). At the top of the spinal column, the top vertebra, the atlas, has facets that balance the head and the second vertebra, the axis, has a prong that fits directly into a hole in the skull. This hole, which is called the foramen magnum, is at the back of the skull in higher apes, as in all quadrupedal animals. This allows the animal to keep its head up while it is trotting along the ground. In humans, the foramen magnum is at the base of the skull, allowing us to look forward as we walk. It also makes it hard to look forward when we crawl on all fours. Each of these modifications is diagnostic of humans and easily recognizable in the fossil record in specimens for which these anatomical areas are present.
Ardipithecus ramidus and the Origins of Bipedality
The origins of bipedality have traditionally been understood as having evolved at the end of the Miocene epoch, around 6 to 8 million years ago (Crompton, Sellers and Thorpe 2010) when the climate began to dry out and cool. Unfortunately, there are only scattered presumed hominin remains from this time period, all of which are taxonomically controversial and fragmentary and none of which have diagnostic postcranial remains. It has also been thought that the transition to bipedality likely did not happen all at once but in mosaic fashion (as evolution often proceeds) and this has recently supported by the fossil record. Up until a few years ago, the most widely-accepted model was that bipedality originated among a group of large-bodied hominoids that had adapted to the savannah-jungle fringe. The jungle, itself, was ceded to the precursors of the modern chimpanzees and gorillas and the savannah to the precursors of the modern baboons and other terrestrial monkeys. As a result, some workers (Crompton et al. 2010) suggested that both arboreal (tree-dwelling) and terrestrial locomotion might have been present in our earliest ancestors. Recent evidence has corroborated some parts of this model, but not others.
In 1994, the remains of a remarkable hominin, dated to 4.4 million years ago, were unearthed in the Afar Triangle of Northeastern Ethiopia. Examination of the surrounding deposits, however, yielded a conclusion that this hominin lived in a woodland environment, rather than a savannah/forest fringe environment (White et al. 2009a). Requiring over ten years of extrication from the surrounding rock and painstaking reconstruction, this fossil form, Ardipithecus ramidus (now represented by 110 individuals) yields diagnostic parts of the pelvis (Figure 4), as well as sections of the arms and skull (Figure 5) (White et al. 2009b). Although the base of the skull is not preserved, one striking aspect of humanity is present in the teeth. The canine (eye tooth) does not extend beyond the tooth row. Humans are the only hominins for which this is the case. In all other ape species, fossil and extant, the canine projects well beyond the tooth row.
Biomechanics specialist Owen Lovejoy and colleagues (Lovejoy et al. 2009) write about this species:
"The gluteal muscles had been repositioned so that Ar. Ramidus could walk without shifting its center of mass from side to side. This is made clear not only by the shape of its ilium, but by the appearance of a special growth site unique to hominids among all primates (the anterior inferior iliac spine). However, its lower pelvis was still almost entirely ape-like, presumably because it still had massive hindlimb muscles for active climbing."
Figure 6 shows the intermediate nature of the pelvis of Ardipithecus ramidus compared to later hominins (Homo sapiens, Au. Afarensis) and chimpanzees (P. troglodytes).
Ardipithecus, then, represents a shift away from the primitive locomotion employed by the last common ancestor of our line and that of modern chimpanzees. Here is a hominin that maintained a link with its tree-dwelling past and yet had progressed toward the bipedal future. This evidence is striking because it firmly demonstrates that a species had arisen that was advanced in the human direction. Whether or not it led to the hominin forms that followed is not known but it clearly represents a phenomenal example of a transitional form in the human fossil record.
From this point on, the forms become noticeably more human in appearance, leading eventually our own species some four million years later. In his infinite wisdom, God had set us on a path toward our eventual communion with Him. That this path took such a long period of time and through so many varied forms of humanity is a testament to His creative power and patience.
Next, the successors to Ardipithecus and true human walking.

Hill-Murray eighth-grader Joey Anderson celebrates after scoring his first career varsity goal. Photo by Loren Nelson
Joey Anderson has been part of Hill-Murray's varsity team for a week.
He's had to quickly adjust to the speed, physicality and the aura that differs from the Pioneers' junior varsity team.
To some players there might not be much to deal with, but Anderson is only in eighth grade.
On Thursday Anderson played in his second career varsity game, and it was a big one.
No. 1-ranked (Class 1A) St. Thomas Academy visited the No. 2 Pioneers, and Anderson proved Coach Bill Lechner's decision to move him up to the varsity roster was a wise one.
Anderson scored his first career varsity goal in the second period on a backhand shot that beat sprawling Cadets' goalie David Zevnik.
The goal proved to be the game-winner in the Pioneers' 3-1 victory against St. Thomas Academy on Jan. 24 at Aldrich Arena in Maplewood.
"I can't even tell you how this feels," Anderson said. "I am just happy that I am up here and most importantly we got the win."
Hill-Murray eighth-grader Joey Anderson scored a goal, notched an assist and took two penalties in his second varsity game. Photo by Loren Nelson
Anderson got the news he wasn't only going to practice with the varsity but play in his first varsity game on Jan. 18, a day before the Pioneers routed South St. Paul 11-3.
Anderson did not factor into any of the scoring.
"We told him the day before our game against South St. Paul, and he was like 'Oh, OK.' " Lechner said. "He handled it really well, and we were not too concerned after we met with him about it."
Anderson played his youth hockey in Roseville and last summer played with the Minnesota Blades in preparation for the high school season.
Jumping from youth hockey, where he was just learning the physical nature of the sport, to high school's elite hasn't appeared to daunting for the 5-foot-10 Anderson.
He held his own against a physical Cadets team, dishing out hard hits and even taking a couple penalties with his physical play.
"I was really impressed with how he handled himself out there," Pioneers' senior goalie John Dugas said. "St. Thomas (Academy) is physical and like to take the body, and he was right there with them.
"He has the size to take it and I am sure that they (Cadets) knew that he is just an eighth-grader so I am sure they wanted to test him, and he proved that he can."
From the drop of the puck in the first period Anderson was immediately involved.
Willie Brown opened the scoring in the first period with a wrist shot that beat Zevnik in the upper right corner. Anderson got the assist on that goal.

Anderson had a scoring chance in the first when he attempted to cut into the slot, but was tied up by the Cadets' Gunnar Regan and fell to the ice before getting the shot off.
"He was the best player on the ice," Pioneers' senior captain Zach Lavalle said. "We won the game, and he was obviously a big part of it with a goal and an assist, but he did more than just that. He had other scoring chances, too and just played a great game for us."
Lavalle is no stranger to being in the limelight at such a young age.
He also cracked the Pioneers varsity roster as an eighth-grader and has excelled ever since. For the past three seasons Lavelle has been a point-producing machine for Hill-Murray and a player it can count on for big goals in big games.
For Lavalle, getting the nod to play varsity hockey as an eighth-grader was not a gut-wrenching experience as some may expect.
"It's just adrenaline," Lavalle said. "You want to get out there and play. Joey (Anderson) just did that tonight and I am so happy for him and what he did. We are all proud of him."
St. Thomas Academy coach Greg Vannelli knows what it is like to have younger players on his varsity roster.
"Hockey is a little bit different, because if you have the skills, you don't have to be the biggest player out there to do well," he said. "In a sport like football, you need to have some size, especially if you are a younger player, but here, if you have the skill set, you can play."
Lechner said Anderson was so modest that he was reluctant to take the puck as a keepsake for scoring his first varsity goal.
"This is just a dream come true," Anderson said. "There is still a lot of hockey left and I am excited to be a part of it."
Eighth-grader Joey Anderson scored the winning goal and assisted on Willie Brown's opening goal to lead No. 2-ranked Hill-Murray to a 3-1 Classic Suburban Conference win against No. 1 (Class 1A) St. Thomas Academy on Thursday, Jan. 24 at Aldrich Arena in Maplewood.
Anderson, playing In his second career varsity game, scored his first career goal on a backhand shot that beat St. Thomas Academy goalie David Zevnik.
Brown opened the scoring in the first period when he received a pass from Anderson and beat Zevnik with a wrist shot high glove side.
Ryan Black put Hill-Murray up 3-0 in the third period with a power-play goal on a one-timer from the slot that beat Zevnik low glove side.
St. Thomas Academy's Henry Hart broke the shutout with a shorthanded goal with 31 seconds left in the third period after taking a perfect pass from Seamus Donohue.
The Cadets struggled on the power play going 0-for-3. They did not have many quality chances as Hill-Murray pressured the puck carrier and was able to clear the zone with relative ease.
Pioneers' goalie Jon Dugas was solid in net with 27 saves, while Zevnik stopped 28 for St. Thomas Academy.
With the loss St. Thomas Academy drops to 14-2-1 and will take on North St. Paul on Saturday, Jan. 26 at the St. Thomas Ice Arena.
Hill Murray improves to 15-2-1 and will host Tartan on Saturday, Jan. 26 at Aldrich Arena.
1. Joey Anderson, Hill-Murray
Anerson scored his first career varsity goal, which ended up being the game-winner, in just his second career varsity game in the second period. He also assisted on Willie Brown's goal in the first period. On the big stage for the first time, the eighth-grader proved the spotlight was not too bright for him. Anderson was composed all night and proved, even for his age, he could handle the physical play that the Cadets deliver.
2. John Dugas, Hill-Murray
Dugas is about as cool as they come in net and proved it again with a 27-save effort, which included a handful of huge glove saves against some of the Cadets' premier goal scorers. St. Thomas Academy goalie David Zevnik has been known to steal the show every now and then, but Dugas showed that he can be the difference as well.
3. Willie Brown, Hill-Murray
Brown, playing on a line with Anderson, notched a goal and an assist. The junior scored the opening goal in the first period on a wrist shot that beat Zevnik in the upper right corner and assisted on Anderson's game-winner in the second. Brown had plenty of scoring chances, displaying crafty stickhandling and a hard backhand shot, which he put on net several times.

Fairfield wilts early in loss to Manhattan
FAIRFIELD -- Winter storm Nemo brought misery to the state over the weekend. The Manhattan Jaspers added a little more Tuesday night at Fairfield University.
While payloaders and snow plows were still digging out the campus, the Jaspers buried the Stags inside Alumni Hall with a dominant first half en route to a 62-40 victory in front of 1,186 fans.
The score was the lowest offensive output of the season for Fairfield (15-11, 7-7 MAAC) -- which lost to Virginia 54-45 in its second game -- and ended a five-game winning streak.
"This one hurts," said Fairfield coach Sydney Johnson, whose Stags now have one day to prepare for Siena (Thursday) after the Jasper game was delayed twice due to the storm. "This is bad from a coaching standpoint. I know our seniors, Derek (Needham) and Colin (Nickerson), and we don't feel like this is us, but we're humbled."
The Stags missed 18 straight shots, committed 10 turnovers and shot 13.8 percent (4 for 29) against the Jaspers' press in the first half.
The absence of senior guard Desmond Wade, the team's ball-handler, didn't help. Wade did not even attend the game after suffering a non-contact injury against Saint Peter's last Thursday.
"We think we'll get him back in two weeks," Johnson said. "We got to rest him this week. ... We'd love to have him back for the BracketBuster, but that might be a stretch."
Manhattan (9-15, 7-7) cruised to a 34-13 halftime lead with Emmy Andujar scoring eight of his 13 points off the bench. Donovan Kates led the team with 17 points and the Japsers' bench topped Fairfield's 32-12.
"We weren't making shots, we turned the ball over and the press got to us," said Nickerson, a senior guard. "That's how they got their lead."
After the Stags opened with a 7-2 lead, their offense froze up and Manhattan took advantage with a 24-1 run. Maurice Barrow ended a 12-minute, 20-second field goal draught with his jumper at 4:07, cutting the lead to 26-10.
More InformationGame at a glance
GAME MVP: Manhattan's Emmy Andujar filled out a stat sheet in victory with 13 points, six rebounds and five assists off the bench.
KEYS TO DEFEAT: Fairfield shot a horrific 13.8 percent (4-for-29) in the first half to dig a 21-point hole. The Stags struggled from the foul line all night, hitting just 7-of-18 attempts.
UP NEXT: Thursday vs. Siena at Webster Bank Arena, 8:30 p.m.
"The last five or six games, we have really been defending," said Manhattan coach Steve Masiello, whose club has won four of five. "I think we are starting to put longer spells together of playing good defense and good offense, and it's coming together for us."
Needham didn't score a basket until there was 6:47 left in the game, ending an 0-for-8 stretch, and finished with five points on 1-for-10 shooting. His season low was three, which came in a 63-58 overtime loss to Loyola.
"We tried to give him a lot of different looks, but my thing was we were going to trap him on pick and rolls," Masiello said. "We know he can take a game over ... but our thought was if we are going to lose to Fairfield, someone else has to beat us."
Barrow had a team-high nine points with seven rebounds while freshman Amadou Sidibe added 11 rebounds, but the Stags needed to be almost perfect in the second half to get back in. Instead, they played better, but never got closer than 16 points.
"You credit them because they almost played a perfect half in the first half," Johnson said. "You put so much pressure on you to be perfect (to try and come back). I thought our energy was better in the second half, but we weren't perfect.
"When you are down 20, you can't do that in the league."
