Having taken quite similar routes to the final of the Copa Libertadores 2013, Olimpia and Atletico Mineiro square off on Wednesday night with comparable weaponry as they bid to claim the 54th edition of this prestigious event. On paper, there seems to be very little separating the sides, and not even their respective trump cards are sufficient to designate a favourite.
Take the considerable Libertadores experience and pedigree of the Paraguayan club, for example. Having won this competition three times (1979, 1990 and 2002) and finished runners-up on another three occasions, El Decano would appear to have a psychological advantage over their Brazilian opponents, who will be making their first appearance in the decider.
For all that, a quick glance at the recent Libertadores record of Brazil's clubs – at least one team in every final since 2005, winning five of those eight editions, including the last three – would certainly give the Belo Horizonte* *outfit grounds for optimism.
Nor does a comparison of the pair's respective attacks do much to separate them. Yes, coach Cuca rightfully considers O Galo's strike force as one of its strengths, the team having netted 27 times en route to the final courtesy of four of the edition's top scorers in Jo, Diego Tardelli, Bernard and Ronaldinho.
However, Ever Hugo Almeida's charges are not far behind and can themselves point to 23 goals and three players of their own – Juan Manuel Salgueiro, Freddy Bareiro and Juan Carlos Ferreyra – highly ranked on the scoring chart.
Another common denominator is that both teams recorded several big wins in this year's competition: against Arsenal and Sao Paulo, in the case of Atletico; and against Newell's Old Boys and Deportivo Lara, in the case of Olimpia. Moreover, both clubs claimed some big-name scalps along the way and had their share of frights in the knockout rounds.
The similarities even extend to the colours of their respective strips – white and black. The pair will be battling it out to follow in the footsteps of 2012 champions Corinthians, who also share the same colours, and claim the region's berth at the FIFA Club World Cup Morocco 2013. There may be little between the teams, but there is certainly a lot to play for.
The game
Olimpia-Atletico Mineiro, Wednesday 17 July, Estadio Defensores del Chaco (Asuncion, Paraguay), 20:50 (local time)
If they remain true to the football that got them this far, Olimpia and Atletico Mineiro have what it takes to serve up one of the most attacking finals in recent times. Moreover, goals seem certain to be on the menu if the high drama and emotion of their respective semi-finals is anything to go by.
In their last-four fixture against Colombia's Santa Fe – just as they will be hoping for on Wednesday night – Olimpia established a two-goal lead in the home leg which, despite going down 1-0 in the return and withstanding immense pressure late in the game, proved enough to see them through.
For the Belo Horizonte club, things were even more dramatic. Beaten 2-0 by Newell's in the first leg, they then managed to win by the same scoreline at home, eventually sneaking through thanks to the heroics of goalkeeper Victor in the ensuing penalty shootout.
The two sides have had their problems ahead of the final, though both have quality reinforcements at their disposal. For the Paraguayan giants, Salgueiro and Ferreyra have not fully recovered from injuries but are still expected to play, while Bareiro, who eventually renewed his contract in time for the final, is now available.
For O Galo, meanwhile, Bernard will miss out through suspension, leaving Cuca with a selection dilemma. His options include the oft-criticised Guilherme, who will not be lacking in confidence after scoring the vital second goal against Newell's, and key defender Rever, who served his suspension during the semis.
Players to watch
Without Bernard, even greater responsibility rests on the remaining two members of O Galo's attacking triumvirate: Joand Diego Tardelli. The pair are the joint-leading scorers in this year's Libertadores on six, alongside Ignacio Scocco of Newell's Old Boys. The pressure on the duo will be even greater given their failure to find the net in their side's last nine Libertadores or Brasileirao outings, stretching back to their 2-1 defeat to Coritiba on 26 May.
The stat
11 – The number of victories amassed by Olimpia in 46 games against Brazilian opposition in the Libertadores. Despite these modest numbers, Los Franjeados have proven something of a hoodoo side for their neighbours, having eliminated Brazilian sides in all three of their title-winning campaigns, most recently defeating Sao Caetano in the 2002 final. Moreover, El Decano won all their Libertadores titles after playing the first leg of the final at home. Could that be an omen for this year?
The words Freddy Bareiro, Olimpia forward: "People didn't rate us very highly but we've shown that, with a lot of effort, toil and team work, we can achieve great things. We don't just have a group of people here; we have a family, and no one can take away our dream of winning the Copa Libertadores. Come what may, we need to win this home leg, regardless of the score."
Diego Tardelli, Atletico Mineiro forward: "We can't go into the match as lackadaisical as we were against Newell's. Nor can we make mistakes because, very often, the final is decided in the first leg. With our [semi-final first-leg] defeat against Rosario, the team realised just how hard it is to overturn a 2-0 deficit. That would be a bad result to take into the return leg at home [this time too]."

NEWARK, Del. (AP) Delaware guards Devon Saddler and Jarvis Threatt combined for 42 points to lead the Blue Hens to a 69-54 victory over Hofstra in a Colonial Athletic Association game Wednesday night.
Saddler, the league's leading scorer at 19.8 points per game, scored 23 on 9-of-14 shooting, while Threatt had 19 points, made 7 of 13 shots and came up with six steals. Kyle Anderson added 11 points.
The Blue Hens (7-8, 2-0) pulled away with a 16-3 run early in the second half that gave them a 47-33 lead with 13:25 remaining, and they never led by fewer than 11 points the rest of the way.
Daquan Brown came off the bench to score 13 points for the Pride (4-11, 1-1), the only Hofstra player to score in double figures.
Stephen Nwaukoni had 11 rebounds for Hofstra, which beat Georgia State 52-50 Monday night to end an eight-game losing streak.

Let It Be
The documentary film "Let It Be" gives an unparalleled insight into the Beatles getting back to basics at Twickenham and at their own recording studios in Savile Row. It spans two weeks of recording of what was to be their final album, Let It Be.
A highlight of the film is their legendary gig on the roof of the Apple Building. The sound of their music attracts hundreds of people in the streets below. The crowd spills over into the streets, blocks traffic, frustrates the police. Windows in nearby buildings pop open as other people strain for sight and sound of their favourite performers. Even rooftops serve as precarious perches for Beatles' fans.
Let It Be was produced by Neil Aspinall and directed by Michael Lindsey-Hogg. It includes tracks such as Don't Let Me Down, Maxwell's Silver Hammer, Two Of Us, I've Got A Feeling, Oh Darling, One After 909, Across The Universe, Dig A Pony, I Me Mine, For You Blue, Besame Mucho, Dig It, Get Back and Let It Be.

ALEXANDRIA, VA – In spite of the dishonest, over-the-top fear-mongering perpetrated by the Obama Administration and its willing friends in the liberal media, the sky did not fall on Friday. Media Research Center analysts reviewed all of the 88 sequestration stories that ran on ABC, CBS and NBC during the two-week period between February 14 and March 1 when the "cuts" took effect. They found that 58 (66%) of them advanced the most hysterical Obama administration talking points without any hint of skepticism. Some of the most outrageous examples include:
- On CBS This Morning (March 1) co-host Charlie Rose raised the specter that U.S. "troops could pay with their lives."
- Earlier on the February 25 CBS This Morning, Rose highlighted "the worst-case scenario" for the sequester: "Kids without vaccines; schools without teachers; and massive airport delays.
- On ABC's World News (February 24) David Kerley likened the cuts to a "disaster movie," warning of "child care canceled for tens of thousands of kids."
- Over on NBC's Today (February 25), correspondent Peter Alexander claimed the puny budget cuts would eliminate "meals for needy seniors" and deprive children of "vaccines for diseases like whooping cough and the flu."
Media Research Center President Brent
Bozell reacts:
"There is a reason that public confidence in the news media is down to 6%."
"The Obama administration couldn't have made its cheerleaders at ABC, CBS, and NBC look any more foolish. Thanks to the bogus sequestration panic pushed by the administration and the liberal media, the American people recognize that the networks are nothing more than an adjunct of the Obama White House press office.
"Like squawking parrots, ABC, CBS, and NBC mindlessly repeated the administration's phony, over-hyped doomsday talking points during the two weeks leading up to sequestration. That a full two thirds of their stories didn't include a shred of skepticism is an abomination. Their breathless prognostications of swift, certain doom should be an embarrassment to the entire news industry, but the liberal media have proven that they are beyond shame and are fully devoted to pushing Obama's message no matter how preposterous it is."

U.S. Department of Justice
United States Attorney
Eastern District of California
501 1Street, Suite 10-100
Sacramento, California 95814
Two Brothers Charged in Education Fraud Scheme
SACRAMENTO - United States Attorney John K. Vincent announced today the arrest and indictment of two Southern California men accused of defrauding a federally funded adult education program administered by the California Department of Education. ("CDE") out of more than $650,000.
This morning, agents from the FBI's Riverside, California office and the U.S. Department of Education-Office of Inspector General ("DOE-OIG") arrested brothers Michael Guzman and Robert Guzman, both of Fontana, California. Yesterday, a federal grand jury in Sacramento indicted the two men for defrauding a program designed to fund community-based organizations engaged in teaching adult education courses, including Adult Basic Education, English as a Second Language, and English as a Second Language-Citizenship. The program is commonly referred to as the "ESL-CIT Program," because funding for English as a Second Language-Citizenship classes comprises the bulk of funding awarded to community-based organizations participating in the program.
The indictment alleges that Michael Guzman, age 44, and Robert Guzman, age 46, operated a Los Angeles-area organization called Templo Calvario Legalization and Education Center ("TCL&E"). Michael Guzman allegedly served as the Executive Director of TCL&E, while Robert Guzman allegedly served as the Director of Operations for TCL&E. TCL&E began participating in the ESL-CIT Program in 1994, and has received a total of $2,528,962 in grant money through the program. The indictment, however, focuses on the 1995-96 ESL-CIT Program year, during which TCL&E received $857,645 in grant money.
According to Assistant United States Attorney Daniel S. Linhardt, who is prosecuting the case in the Eastern District of California, the indictment accuses the Guzmans of submitting fraudulent claims for reimbursement, in which they falsely misrepresented the number of student attendance hours generated by TCL&E. The indictment also alleges the Guzmans "fraudulently created student rosters fox classes that were never held or that failed to comply with program criteria, all to obtain more funds from the CDE's ESL-CIT Program than they were entitled to receive and to conceal their scheme to fraudulently obtain this funding."
The indictment alleges TCL&E maintained thousands of student attendance rosters, which included, among other things, teaching sites where classes were never held, names of purported teachers who did not actually teach for TCL&E, and lists of purported student names (usually with accompanying signatures) misrepresenting the number and identity of students who actually attended classes at designated class sites. According to the indictment, these attendance sheets included "at least one class site where the teacher provided instruction. in business Spanish to English-speaking students rather than instruction in English for Spanish-speaking students as contemplated by the ESL-CTT Program."
The indictment is part of a long-term investigation by the Sacramento Division of the FBI, DOE-OIG and the United States Attorney's Office. On July 12, 2001, a related investigation by the Los Angeles Division of the FBI and DOE-OIG led to an indictment in the Central District of California against Hermandad Mexicana Nacional Legal Center, another community-based organization that participated in the ESL-CIT Program. These joint investigations are still ongoing.
Yesterday's indictment charges Michael Guzman with three counts of mail fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1341, and one count of false statements in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1001. The indictment charges Robert Guzman with three counts of mail fraud. The mail fraud counts each carries a maximum possible sentence of five years in federal prison. The false statements charge carries a. maximum sentence of five years in prison.
The charges in the indictment are only allegations, and the defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty.

Alright, so this cheery little effort only has a single digital tuner, and admittedly it looks like something that just dropped off the underside of KITT.
But look at the bright side - you can pick it up online for under £20, making it just about the cheapest way to get digital TV onto your PC or laptop.
If you're prepared to contend with the outrageously ugly interface then you might find this a pleasingly affordable tuner option.

Help This Farmer Stop Monsanto's GM Canola
You might not have heard of Steve Marsh yet but this man could lose everything to protect your right to eat GM-free food.
Who is Steve Marsh?
Steve Marsh is an Australian farmer who lost his organic certification when Monsanto's genetically modified (GM) canola blew onto his farm from a neighbouring property in 2010. Since then, Steve lost most of his income and has been struggling to get his organic certification back.
Monsanto has a no liability agreement with GM farmers that prevent them from being sued. The only avenue Steve had to protect his livelihood was to take his neighbour to court. It is due to start on the 10th February 2014 in the Western Australian Supreme Court and is scheduled to run for three weeks.
Donate Now to Support Steve!
A landmark case for a GM-free future
This is the world's first case of an organic farmer using the courts to recover loss and damages from a GM farmer. This case has been described as a landmark case to determine who should take responsibility in case of GM contamination. If Steve wins it will set a precedent to guide the application of common law to GM contamination and will be of interest to lawmakers worldwide.
We don't want to be part of the global GM experiment underway with barely tested, unlabeled and uncontrolled GM foods infiltrating our food supplies. When people like Steve stand up for their rights in spite of what he may lose, it gives us a chance to stand alongside him.
Take action!
Steve's neighbour is well supported and well funded by a pro-GM organization and we are helping to raise funds and awareness for Steve's case.
Have a look at the short video above explaining his story and share it with friends, family and work colleagues. Please make a donation to support this landmark case and protect the future of GM-free food.

This 1967 MGB GT Special Race Car is for sale with our friends at Bring a Trailer.com for just $15,000. The seller is from Reading, Pa., and as a bonus, will deliver the car to a buyer within 100 miles.

A big Happy Mother's Day to all of the Mom's out there. Mom's of children, mom's of dogs, mom's of cats..whomever you are a Mom too!
I began to celebrate Mom's Day last night. We went to Pittsburgh Blue for dinner. I love this restaurant. This was the first time the four of us went together and the first time that ALL of us agreed that we liked everything about the restaurant. We all loved the meal, the service, the ambiance, everything. It was fabulous. I had a pound of Alaskan King Crab Legs which Tara, our waitress, cracked for me. Marvelous. I also had about a pound of perfectly steamed broccoli and Tyler and I shared a wedge salad. Good eating.
Today I woke early to get in a long run on the trail. The foresters had a controlled burn out at Blue Hill Trail on Monday so the trail is still in pretty rough shape. Lots of ash blowing around and there are still some smoldering logs. Luckily Topaz doesn't seem to singe his paws at all. We've been out there since they reopened Friday and he barrels right through so I guess he hasn't stepped upon a hot spot. The scenery is pretty ugly, though. All charred and no greenery. It doesn't look like spring anymore. Next week I'm sure greenery will begin to show up again.
We ran 15 on Saturday and 20 today. I'm feeling good and strong. My energy levels have remained high so I am getting in good long runs and kick ass weight lifting sessions.
I was able to get out into my perennial gardens today. My gosh, the winter didn't deter the crab grass and dandelions that is for sure. You'd think I planted a sod garden with all of the grass I have growing. At first I felt all negative about going out there weeding. Soon enough I reminded myself that the reason I began this garden was because I enjoyed working in the soil, the peace and quiet, spending time by myself. That turned my negative thoughts around. I began to enjoy my work in the garden, reminding myself that I didn't have to weed it all in one afternoon, enjoy the time to myself, enjoy the time spent reflecting. I certainly did. It was medicinal.
Next Saturday is the Superior 50K. I'm going to take it nice and easy. One, I haven't run that distance since I tore my vastus medialis. Two, it's the Superior Hiking Trail. I'm just going to enjoy the day, no racing, take in the scenery and enjoy myself while running the 50K. Good stuff!

GRAND BLANC, Mich. – By now, Ray Bishop has his routine down.
He's been designing and painting goalie masks for years and he's always trying to one-up himself.
"People want to know what's the new thing you're going to do," Bishop said. "You have to be on the cutting edge of it all the time."
So far, so good.
There's always a buzz surrounding bishop's designs, probably because he continues to churn out the coolest masks on ice.
Bishop started "Bishop Creations" 20 years ago. He pulled from his automotive background, his artistic eye and his love for hockey.
"My first NHL mask I made was for Roman Turek of the Dallas Stars," Bishop said. "Once you get one in the NHL, that's when people really start to look at what you've done and it just grew from there."
Now Bishop's clientele is a "who's who" of hockey net minders.
Ryan Miller started collaborating with Bishop when he played for Michigan State. In 2010, he asked Bishop to make his Olympic mask.
"[This year's Olympic mask] is like Ryan Miller's 2.0 version," he said. "I guess it's the new version and this one is my favorite."
Jimmy Howard works with Bishop for all of his Red Wings masks. So, naturally, he asked him to create his Olympic version, too.
"I came up with the stars, he came up with the eagle," Howard said. "You're limited in the Olympics with what you can do, they sensor it, so it's a simple mask."
"He pretty much gave me the ability to just run with it," Bishop said of Howard's Team USA mask. "He said he wanted a stars and stripes theme and I did a couple sketches up for him."
Between the design and execution, Bishop said it takes him anywhere from 30-70 hours to complete each mask. It's a lot of work, but every time he sees his creations on the ice, he gets goose bumps.
"When you see something you painted on national TV, it's really a neat thing and now on the Olympic scale, it's a global thing, it's really neat," he said.
To see more of his designs, visit the Bishop Designs Facebook page.

Planning Your Trip to Glacier National Park
There's plenty to see and do in Glacier National Park, whether you're going to be there for a few days or a few weeks. If you're only there for a day, be sure to drive over Going-to-the-Sun Road. If you have a few more days, visit Many Glacier. If you have a whole week, add West Glacier, Waterton, and Two Medicine Lake to your itinerary. If you're lucky enough to have two weeks, make trips to the North Fork, U.S. 2, and Flathead Valley as well.
West Glacier and Apgar
West Glacier and Apgar form the park's western portal. Divided by a nationally designated Wild and Scenic River, the area whips into a summer frenzy with white-water rafting, trail riding, fishing, kayaking, boating, hiking, and backpacking.
North Fork
Escape the crowds in the remote North Fork on Glacier's west side. It has real rusticity, not just the look of it. Polebridge Mercantile and Northern Lights Saloon attract travelers who relish bumpy dirt roads, solitude at Bowman and Kintla Lakes, and wolf serenades.
Going-to-the-Sun Road
Glacier's biggest attraction and the only road bisecting the park leads drivers on a skinny cliff shimmy into the craggy alpine. The National Historic Landmark crosses the Continental Divide at Logan Pass and accesses top-of-the-world trails.
St. Mary and Many Glacier
Small seasonal St. Mary bustles as a hub of campgrounds, lodges, cabins, cafés, shops, and Going-to-the-Sun Road's eastern portal while the grizzly bear haven at Many Glacier holds the historic Many Glacier Hotel and trails to sapphire lakes and high passes.
Two Medicine and East Glacier
In Glacier's southeast corner, the historic Glacier Park Lodge greets travelers with its flowered walkway and huge lobby. Two Medicine Lake yields a quiet contrast for hikers, boaters, anglers, wildlife-watchers, and campers.
Marias Pass and Essex
Pale next to Going-to-the-Sun Road's drama, U.S. 2 crosses mile-high Marias Pass in the fastest route over the Continental Divide. The scenic drive squeezes between Glacier and the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex.
In Canada, Waterton Lakes National Park provides access to Glacier's remote north end via boat across the international boundary to Goat Haunt, USA. Waterton Townsite bustles with boat tours, hiking, shopping, bicycling, dining, and camping.
Flathead Valley
Flathead Valley towns—Kalispell, Whitefish, Bigfork, and Columbia Falls—draw visitors for their unique personalities and outdoor reputation with boating, fishing, rafting, camping, biking, golf, swimming, hiking, and skiing.
When to Go to Glacier National Park
High Season (June-Sept.)
Summer attracts hordes when lodges, campgrounds, and trails are open. Barring deep snows, Going-to-the-Sun Road is open mid-June-mid-October, with peak visitation crammed into four weeks during midsummer. Snow buries some trails into July, when moderate weather rides in. Mosquitoes descend in early summer, wildflowers peak in late July, and huckleberries ripen in August.
Off Season (Oct.-May)
Low-elevation trails are usually snow-free in late spring and early fall, but few commercial services are open. While Going-to-the-Sun Road is closed to vehicles, bikers and hikers tour it without cars in spring and fall.
In spring, May-June rains intersperse with cobalt-blue skies. In fall, warm bug-free days and cool nights usher in the larch and aspen turning gold. Peak-top snows descend by September's end. In winter, snow closes most park roads, which become quiet snowshoeing and cross-country ski trails.

Hull's Robbie Brady believes the club are perfectly equipped to sustain their challenge for promotion.
The midfielder, 20, says the Tigers' new-found depth can be key to their hopes of remaining in and around the top six for the remainder of the campaign.
"There's a lot more depth in the team than there was last year," he told BBC Radio Humberside. "The aim at the start of the season was promotion and I don't think the lads will settle for anything less.
"It's mostly the same lads that were here last year but I just think everyone has got their act together this year.
"We've got a great chance of going up. We're confident that we can win every game we go into.
"We've had a couple of minor slip-ups, but we're in a comfortable position to keep pushing on."
Brady, who spent the whole of last season on loan at the KC Stadium from Manchester United, is keen to extend his current stay beyond January 2.
He added: "I'm just looking to get as many games as I can but I'd love to extend my loan spell further because I'm enjoying myself here."

Due to the Emergency which exists in Maryland and by the Govenor's Executive Order, all Asbestos Exams at MDE and at Anne Arundel Community College are cancelled until further notice
All certificates and license expiration dates are extended until 30 days after the end of the emergency
All asbestos notifications need to be emailed
Third Party Exam Information
Click here for most current Pass Lists and any update on the Maryland Department of the Environment's implementation of the Asbestos Training Program and Examination Act that was passed by the Maryland General Assembly during the 2013 session.
As of December 21, 2015, the fee for asbestos contractor will be reduced from $125.00 to $0.00 for licenses with 2 or fewer workers. The other contractor license which was originally $750.00 will be reduced to $625.00
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral found in certain rock formations, mined from open pit mines. Most of the asbestos used in the United States today comes from Canada. Three types, chrysotile, amosite, and crocidolite are most commonly found in the United States. The short thin asbestos fibers released into the air are a hazard to persons who may breathe in these fibers. There is no known safe level of exposure for persons who work with asbestos or may be in the same area as an asbestos project.
Asbestos is a hazardous air pollutant that is regulated by the state and federal governments. The State of Maryland regulates how persons work with asbestos and also regulates those who train persons to work with asbestos The EPA regulations cover four asbestos activities, the first is the removal, repair, or encapsulation of asbestos-containing materials (ACM), the second is approval of asbestos training providers, the third is regulation of persons accredited to perform asbestos-related activities, and fourth is asbestos in schools.
Another important component of the program is managing asbestos activities in state facilities. The Asbestos Oversight Committee (AOC) formed as part of a 1983 Governor's Executive Order sets policy for asbestos activities in state-owned facilities, including determining which asbestos projects qualify for AOC funds for abatement. The AOC also oversees the State Employees' Training and Medical Monitoring Program. State employees working with asbestos receive their training from the Department (It is an approved training program.). Employees working with asbestos are required to participate in the medical monitoring program.
The program has a list of Consultants that is provided only as a resource. The Department does not license, nor in any way issue permits for these companies in their roles as consultants. The companies provided the information in the list. The Department, by listing these firms, on this list makes no recommendation or referral of any of the companies listed, over any company not listed.

SANDY, Utah – Real Salt Lake announced on Tuesday that it has signed Jordan Allen to a Home Grown contract. Per league and club policy, further terms of the deal will not be disclosed.
Allen, 18, played at the Real Salt Lake-Arizona Academy from August 2011-December 2012. The Rochester, N.Y. native was named the U.S. Soccer Developmental Academy Player of the Year, USSDA Western Conference Player of the Year and earned a spot on the USSDA Starting XI Team of the Year for the 2011-2012 season. Allen played with current RSL first-teamers DF Carlos Salcedo, GK Lalo Fernandez and FW Benji Lopez while at the Casa Grande, Ariz. Academy.
"To see my dream of signing with RSL come true is very exciting," Allen said. "This is the reason I first moved to the Academy in Arizona. At the same time, I know that this is just the first step, and I need to stay grounded. I'm very grateful for the opportunity to play at RSL, but I know that I have plenty of work to do in order to become a successful pro."
Capable of playing defender, midfielder or forward, the versatile Allen is the sixth player signed out of the RSL-Arizona Academy.
Allen played at the University of Virginia this past fall, starting all 24 of UVA's matches and helping lead the Cavaliers to an appearance at the NCAA College Cup. A third-team All-ACC selection, an All-ACC Freshman Team selection and a second-team NSCAA All-South Atlantic Region Team pick, Allen had three goals and a team-high five assists for UVA from his spot in the midfield. His third strike of the season was a game-winner, pushing the Cavs past UConn in the NCAA Tournament Elite Eight and into the College Cup.
Allen also has extensive experience as a U.S. Youth International and is currently in the U-18 player pool.
Name: Jordan Allen
Birthdate: April 25, 1995
Hometown: Rochester, N.Y.
College: University of Virginia
Acquired: Signed to a Home Grown contract on Dec. 31, 2013

Recently, I started having a strange problem with PocoMail PE (3.4). I do not know what caused it.
Every time I start PocoMail PE a message pops up telling me that I am supposed to put a media into my CD/DVD drive because there is no media in it.
I cannot give the message literally here because it is in German but the translation reads like this:
"There is no media in the drive. Put a media into drive Z:."
Drive Z: is my CD/DVD drive. I then get three buttons that I can click:
Cancel / Repeat (Try again) / Continue
Clicking "Repeat" always makes the message pop up again and again, it won't go away. Clicking either "Cancel" or "Continue" opens PocoMail PE and it then seems to work normally. However, this message is annoying and I would like to get rid of it.
Can someone tell me how I can fix this problem?

It looks like the numerous parents enabling very young extensive use of handheld gadgets by very young children is going to bite us in a very few short years. -Lon
Allie Peck's curator insight, March 10, 2014 4:40 PM
While I don't necessarily agree with this in the extent to which it is depicted, there are certainly parts that I wholeheartedly agree with. Often technologies are over stimulating. Looking at a computer screen, iPad screen, TV screen, etc. for an extended period of time causes migraines in myself and many other people that I know. I have seen other research that suggests technology use before bed will make it difficult to fall asleep, and even aids in the development of ADD in children because there is too much to take in. As this article points out, technology also has an increased cause in depression in adolescence. Given all of these incredibly negative side effects, why are schools pushing towards a technology centered classroom?

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
Suzanne Collins did it again! A triumph in a novel that breaks your heart when you least expect it to but has you cheering Katniss to victory.
Here's the quick summary for the third and FINAL (yes I mean that, although is it odd to say I want more?) book of The Hunger Games.
Summary from Goodreads.com
Katniss Everdeen, girl on fire, has survived, even though her home has been destroyed. Gale has escaped. Katniss's family is safe. Peeta has been captured by the Capitol. District 13 really does exist. There are rebels. There are new leaders. A revolution is unfolding.
It is by design that Katniss was rescued from the arena in the cruel and haunting Quarter Quell, and it is by design that she has long been part of the revolution without knowing it. District 13 has come out of the shadows and is plotting to overthrow the Capitol. Everyone, it seems, has had a hand in the carefully laid plans -- except Katniss.
The success of the rebellion hinges on Katniss's willingness to be a pawn, to accept responsibility for countless lives, and to change the course of the future of Panem. To do this, she must put aside her feelings of anger and distrust. She must become the rebels' Mockingjay -- no matter what the personal cost.
Everything from the beginning gets your head spinning in this book. Everything about which way Katniss should go and who she should trust, or even if she can trust herself. It's exactly the same situation as the first two books in the way that Suzanne Collins makes your jaw drop to the floor at moments where you want to cry, but you'll sog up the pages so you don't or your vision gets blurry so you hurry and set it down for a bit to compose yourself. I felt the same way in the first two books and I got that in this final one as well.
I was thinking to myself about the covers once I began reading Mockingjay. The first cover is colored with black, the second with red, and now the third with blue. Now, I know that no author (unless really invited to have a say in it) has no say in the covers at all. Zip, zilch, nada. That's the usual case. Usually the author will hate it or love it. I'm guessing that since the beginning our amazing author here, has had many, and I mean, many says in what goes into her covers or they wouldn't all be the way they are. Not in any way like the book which isn't that way once you get yourself immersed into whatever it is going on. The games, the rebellion, the love triangle between Peeta and Gale. But when I was thinking about the covers, I realized, they must all go with each book somehow. The Hunger Games, I believe has the color black on it because of the death that surrounds the games themselves and the darkness of the world of Panem. Catching Fire is red, for obvious reasons but I'll list it anyway, because of the rebellion that Katniss sparks and the flame catches on in that story. In Mockingjay, I believe the blue is meant for a sign of freedom from the Capitol's icky, designer claws. These are just hunches, but I really think that there is a symbolism in the covers themselves. I could review each of them, but I think this review would take forever to read if I bored you all with what I thought they each were about in detail.
The covers are magnificent, but not as catching as the characters themselves. We learn so much more about Peeta, Gale, and Katniss in this story and are reminded of things in the past stories. Everything clicks together in this story. But even though everything clicks, doesn't mean that the characters do. I mean, they do in this story. I love them all. I wish, personally, to actually meet them all, but the way I imagine them in my head is different from the author's idea of them and even the ideas of everyone who reads these characters is different. That's what makes these characters so incredibly special. It is like Suzanne wrote them all for us individually. There are the Team Peeta's and the Team Gale's. There are the ones who don't care, but only hope that our own world doesn't fall into the glum place of Panem in the future. And for me, as long as those words on those pages are still around, I can go back into that dreary world and live with Katniss. Hunt with Gale. Fall for Peeta. Survive the games.
I don't know how Suzanne Collins does it with writing in present tense. I've tried it myself, and failed. I always fall back into past tense. That is my most favorite "technical" writing I skill I wish I could have. It is hard to write it all as if it were happening now. But that's what makes these books so real to us. I wouldn't have it any other way.
For Mockingjay, and I have read some other reviews on this, but I agree with some that the epilogue at the end of the story seemed out of place. But really, I like how it did sum up everything and show really how the story ended. Some epilogues don't need to be. Some do. This one, I'm indifferent on because of that. It needs to be, but it doesn't need to be.
I could go on and on and on, but then I'd spoil the story for you! No way will I do that. That would be evil of me to do. Maybe in the future one of us here on the Book Bundle will do just that. A nice, everything spoiled review of this wonderful, amazing end book to one of the most anticipated trilogies in the past three years.
I hope you will all join me in giving Suzanne Collins a standing ovation for her characters, her story, and her imagination. This creation is a gift and almost, it seems, a warning to us all.
So, without further comment on this story....
for now anyway...
"May the odds ever be in your favor!"

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The New England Revolution has added U.S. National Team midfielder and 2010 FIFA World Cup veteran Benny Feilhaber to the roster through Major League Soccer's Allocation Process. He is expected to join the Revolution at training on Friday, April 22.
Feilhaber, 26, who has played the last two seasons for Denmark's AGF Aarhus, signed with MLS on April 15, and as a returning U.S. National Team player, was available to teams through the allocation order. The Revolution was ranked third in the current order – based on a recent performance – behind Chivas USA and the Philadelphia Union. Both teams passed, leading the way for the Revolution to select Feilhaber.
"We're very pleased that Benny was available to us through the Allocation Process," Vice President of Player Personnel Michael Burns said. "Benny is a talented, versatile player who instantly will make our team better. We're looking forward to getting him into a Revolution uniform as soon as possible."
Feilhaber began his professional career in Germany with Hamburg's reserve team in 2005 following a stand-out, two-year performance at UCLA and a call-up to the U.S. Under-20 National Team for the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship. Feilhaber debuted with Hamburg's first team in 2006, where he went on to make nine appearances before signing with Derby County, which had just won promotion to the English Premier League, in 2007.
Feilhaber made 10 appearances for Derby before the club was relegated at the end of the season and he signed with AGF Aarhus on a free transfer in August 2008. With AGF Aarhus, Feilhaber made 54 appearances in two-and-a-half seasons, scoring five goals, before signing with MLS last week.
Feilhaber has 38 appearances with the U.S. National Team and was a member of the U.S.' 2010 FIFA World Cup squad and the 2008 U.S. Olympic Team. He has scored two goals for the national team, including the game-winning goal in the final of the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup against Mexico in Chicago. Feilhaber made three appearances in South Africa during the 2010 World Cup, and three appearances at the 2008 Olympics. He is also a former member of the U.S. Under-20 squad.
Feilhaber was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and moved to the United States when he was six years old.

Many of my Enterprise customers ask how to use DPS with their Mobile Device Management (MDM) Solution. An MDM Solution is a set of tools that allows an Enterprise to deploy software to employees on managed devices. For instance, if the company has a sales enablement app that they want all of the sales force to use but they do not want to require all of the sales force to bring their iPads in to have the app installed, then they could use an MDM system.
There are many MDM systems available, and this post is not intended to be a tutorial on how to implement DPS in a specific offering. It is intended to explain the current state of affairs and offer some guidance on how to get your DPS app deployed with any MDM solution.
What is a Mobile Device Management Solution?
Mobile Device Management (MDM) Solutions provide Enterprise customers with a means of managing deployment of apps to mobile devices such as phones and tablets.
How is MDM different from DPS with Restricted Distribution?
An MDM solution allows IT to manage the deployment of the Viewer App, while the DPS service allows business users to deploy content to that managed app. These systems work together, based on the business requirements. For example, an Enterprise customer would use an MDM system to deploy the Viewer App and use a Restricted Distribution server to deliver specific content to an authorized user who uses that app.
What is the difference between a Viewer App and a folio?
Viewer apps are the apps that a user taps to view content on their tablet. Folios are the content that those Viewer Apps display. DPS users make Viewer Apps with the Viewer Builder, and they make folios with InDesign or as HTML.
How can DPS and MDM solutions co-exist?
If a company makes a single-issue Viewer App that has the folio content "baked" into the app, then an MDM solution can push the app (with content embedded) to the managed devices. If a company makes a multi-issue app, then the MDM solution will push the app to managed devices, but the DPS service will deliver the content to those managed apps.
How can DPS folios be integrated with Mobile Device Management solutions (e.g. AirWatch, Mobile Iron, etc.)?
MDM solution can manage deployment of Viewer Apps to mobile devices.
At this time, the Viewer Builder requires that the administrator who makes the Viewer supply a wildcard Enterprise mobileprovision file at build time. Most MDM systems rely on app-specific Enterprise mobileprovision files to enable or disable an app on a device. It is necessary to re-sign the app with an app-specific Enterprise mobile provision file after building the Viewer. Google's iResign is a common utility to help with this process.
Update: The DPS App Builder now supports app signing with mobileprovision files that are tied to a specific AppID, so wildcard in-house mobileprovision files are no longer required to build an Enterprise DPS app. As a result of this change, it is no longer necessary to re-sign an app for use in an MDM solution if the app was built with the proper mobileprovision file. In the case where an agency creates an app using their own Enterprise iOS Developer Account and hands it to an enterprise for deployment via MDM, then re-signing may be necessary. iResign is now a GitHub project and is not Google Code project.
Can an MDM provider manage the app but allow DPS to update the folio files?
Yes, this is the only way that a multi-issue app can work today. Single-issue apps can be managed in their entirety by MDM systems.
Could an MDM provider distribute an app without DPS involvement?
MDM providers can distribute single-issue folios without DPS involvement, aside from the necessity to build the Viewer itself using the Viewer Builder and an Apple Enterprise certificate.
Does DPS provide analytics on privately distributed apps?
Yes. DPS will provide analytics for single issue and multi-issue apps. Applications can also bind to Adobe Site Catalyst.
Can MDM solutions distribute apps made with a DPS Pro license?
No. MDM solutions require Enterprise Signed Apps in order to circumvent the Apple App Store. Only Adobe Enterprise DPS licenses allow customers to create Enterprise Signed apps.
What is an Enterprise Signed App?
Apple Enterprise Developer Accounts are special agreements with Apple, and an Enterprise Signed App (.ipa file) is one made under this special agreement. Apple allows the Enterprise to make and distribute apps within the Enterprise, and the Enterprise agrees not to allow these apps to be acquired outside of the Enterprise. Customers need Apple Enterprise Developer Accounts in order to make and distribute any app, DPS or otherwise, for internal consumption.
Is there a list of MDM systems that work with DPS?
Any MDM solutions that can distribute Enterprise Signed Apps can distribute applications created by DPS Enterprise Edition. However, some additional steps may be needed to properly sign the app for use in the MDM system. Google's iResign is a common utility to help with this process.
Below are two diagrams that illustrate the DPS to MDM workflow, with and without Restricted Distribution.

Christine Canepa grew up on the wilder shores of the Pacific. A sailor's daughter, she had a natural curiosity for things in other places and began wondering early on, "What's going on over there?" This led her to wander, and sometimes rest in places like Istanbul and Paris. Finding how others interpret reality quite fascinating, she studied anthropology, and then Fine Arts at San Francisco State University. Her current body of work is an ongoing investigation into how we negotiate information, particularly that which forms our relationship with the world-at-large, as participants in a Global Community. For most of us, our primary window to the world is various news and media outlets, which often give us a glimpse of cultures both foreign and domestic that is biased, fragmented, sensationalized, or inaccurate. Christine Canepa works with imagery drawn from online news sources, which is then run through various filters prior to painting, a process that parallels the distorted nature of information.

Macroscincus coctei (Underlined)
From: Oceanic Giant Skinks:
Cape Verde Giant Skink
Macroscincus coctei
Bibron & Dumeril 1939
Literally on the other side of the world from the Solomon archipelago lies the Cape Verde archipelago. On these islands hailed a large member of the Scincidae, The Cape Verde Giant Skink: Macroscincus coctei (also known as Bibron's Skink and Cocteau's Skink). The Cape Verde archipelago lies off the west coast of Africa; several hundred miles from Senegal and Mauritania. Hundreds of years ago, rich vegetation abounded but was denuded by introduced dogs, cats, sheep, and cattle. Uninvited introductions included rats and green monkeys. Extensive agriculture and demand for wood also destroyed the habitat and led to subsequent erosion. Macroscincus coctei was most likely found throughout the island chain but in recorded times this skink was found only on the two smallest islands in the fifteen island archipelago (Ilhe'u Branco-1.2 sq. miles and Ilhe'u Razo-2.7 sq. miles). A report by Jim Pether states that they existed on Ilhe'u Santa Luzia. Other evidence suggests (bones, etc.) that they were on Ilhe'u Sao Vincente and Ilhe'u Sao Anto. These islands are described as uninhabited, rocky outcrops with sparse vegetation consisting only of ten species of mallows and great quantities of sand dunes (due to erosion) on their southern tier.
The Cape Verde Giant Skink was a heavy built member of the Scincidae with powerful limbs and claws. The digits were long; suggesting a more arboreal existence. Macroscincus records a SENI value of .13 (Schnirel, 2002). This places this skink in the Low Canopy Arboreal Niche. This would be consistant with the original biofauna found on Cape Verde before interference by Homo sapiens. The SENI Biometric ratio can be a valuable paleontological tool to determine the ecological niche of extinct members of the Scincidae lost to direct living observation. Three color morphs of grey, yellow and intermediate have been described. There was no banding but the body had dark stippled blotches and freckles with a yellow green- grey standard background. The underside was largely devoid of freckles with a solid color somewhat lighter than the back. The tail was less than half the length of the body (SVL)-.402 of the LOA. Corucia has a longer tail in comparison to the SVL. In size, Macroscincus had an adult SVL from 283-286 mm in males and 253.5-255 mm in females. LOA in adult males was 473.6-478.6 mm and in adult females: 424.2-426.7mm. In comparison, Corucia zebrata has an average longer tail length of .539 LOA (males range .53-.55, females range .53-.56). In adult Northern Solomon males, the average SVL is 320mm and 660 LOA. Adult Northern Solomon females, the average is 330mm SVL and 670mm LOA. Common Solomon adult males range about 230-270mm SVL and 520-580mm LOA. Common Solomon adult females have a SVL range of 260-280mm and 560-605mm LOA. Andreone and Guarino (10/03) using LAGS (lines of arrested growth) measured an age of sixteen years for a male Macroscincus and twelve years for a female. A juvenile measured four years. Their study indicated by the LAGS that males reached a maximum adult size quicker than females. Male Macroscincus coctei has been described as having a larger head and longer hindlegs than the female. Andreone/Gavetti described the tail as being prehensile but Pether however, wrote that the tails were capable of caudal autonomy and it was shown in individuals-particularly males. Bartleia describes older individual males having thick, hanging dewlaps-unusual in the skink world and would indicate this was to drive off rival males from the defending territory. The lower eyelid was described as having a transparent window (Bartelia). It is unknown for certain if Macroscincus coctei was crepuscular ( Pether describes Macroscincus to be crepuscular like Corucia) but if so, could utilize the transparent lower window while sleeping on a lower canopy rest spot with it's eyes closed. The reason for only the lower lid being clear could be an evolutionary necessitative development to avoid predation by a native predator long vanished. The predator apparently approached from below. If Macroscincus coctei was diurnal, a clear lower eyelid when sleeping at night would not be as functional since at night depth perception decreases and shadows fade. Bartelia also mentions the dorsal scales are small and keeled in 100+ rows at the midsection. The osteodermal covering is mentioned as being less developed than in other skinks. Andreone/Gavetti describe a maximum scale at midbody of 114 for both male and female and 116 for a single juvenile. The teeth were pleurodontid and pterygoid. Bartelia mentions the teeth as being compressed and serrated like the genus Tiliqua and Ergernia. The head was more streamlined than Corucia zebrata. The head particularly the jaws were thicker in male Macroscincus compared to females.
Macroscincus coctei was first noted by Jose Dasilva Feijo in 1784. Several specimens were filed away/forgotten in a museum in Lisbon, Portugal. In 1809, one of the specimens was transferred to a museum in Paris, France. In 1832, Charles Darwin visited Cape Verde and was dismayed at the sparseness and lack of biodiversity due to human interference. In 1833, the viable population crashed when a group of starving convicts were marooned on Ilhe'u Branco. Use of Macroscincus as food and as a medicinal paste for fat content led to a rapid decline. In 1839, Macroscincus was finally described by Dumeril and Bibron as being of the genus Euprepes and named the species coctei after Cocteau, anoted scientist. Erroneously, they believed the newly described skink hailed from the west coast of Africa. In 1873, Dubocage became aware of a giant oceanic skink from Cape Verde. He arranged the shipment of three individuals; one of which was a youngster. In study, he determined that they were unique enough to be put in a genus of their own- Macroscincus (Some scientists have speculated affinities of Macroscincus to Corucia and Tiliqua.). He is noted as being the first person to maintain Macroscincus in captivity. Two died shortly after arrival. The last (not noted if adult or young) lasted on a vegetarian diet for four years. In 1891, a Turinese reptile acquisitioner by the name of Mario Giancinto Peracca took forty living Macroscincus back to Italy. Unfortunately, they all perished and were lost for many years. Twenty six of these individuals (eleven males and fifteen females) were found and are now housed at the Museo Regionale Di Scienze Naturali Di Torino. Peracca indicated seven eggs were laid over fifteen days in pure, white coloration and were 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Dr. Andreone reported Macroscincus eggs are housed at the Museo Regionali Di Torino. This is notable as on preserved specimens belly-button slits indicate Viviparous Matrotrophy was utilized in reproduction. Perhaps Macroscincus coctei utilized both methods. It is not without precident. In the January 2003 issue of Reptiles magazine, Bill Love mentions the Sheen Skink (eugongylus albofasciolatus) from the Solomon islands using both forms of reproduction. Not only the species but a single Sheen female can switch from Viviparism to Oviparism and vica versa. Several Museums supposedly had eggs and individual Macroscincus specimens by the turn of the century. In 1898, Leonardo Fea visited the Cape Verde Islands and was one of the last scientists to be able to work with live Macroscincus in their natural habitat. By the beginning of the twentieth century, live Macroscincus were appearing in Europe. Many were acquired by zoos. Pether reported a London animal dealer on July 22, 1891 listed Macroscincus coctei at 2 Pounds each and offered these to the London Museum. German hobbyists in general took an active interest in this species before WW I. Individuals would become tame and generally would eat vegetation and fruit. One individual was noted as eating a bird. Regrettably, no captive breeding populations became established. Macroscincus, like the Tuatara, lost ground on the larger islands until being primarily restricted to Ilhe'u Branco and Ilhe'u Razo. Soil erosion due to lost vegetation and lingering, very oppressive draught were the non-human factors leading to the decline. Area fisherman would collect Macroscincus as food from these islands. By 1940, this hardy, adaptable skink could hold out no longer and Macroscincus coctei was declared extinct. Day reported that despite being told he was four decades too late, Hans Hermann Schleich searched both Ilhe'u Razo and Ilhe'u Branco for Macroscincus without success in 1979. However, in 1985, UN System Earthwatch reported one living Macroscincus seen on Ilhe'u Branco. 1985 was the year for extinct species to supposedly return from the dead. Also in that year, a Thylacine (Marsupial tiger/wolf, a species through Parallelism occuping the same niche as Placental dogs and cats) was seen in Western Australia. Australian Thylacines were thought extinct over 1000 years. On Tasmania, free from the pressures of the introduced Dingo to the Australian mainland, Thylacines lasted into the twentieth century. However, being a large predator, The species fell into disfavor with farmers and the government. A bounty was placed on Thylacines with the result of complete extermination in a very short time. The last Thylacine died in captivity in a zoo in 1930. Absurdly, the Tasmanian government halted the bounty and gave complete protection to the Thylacine several years after being declared extinct. In 1998 (On he 100th anniversary of Dr. Fea's Cape Verde expedition), Dr. Franco Andreone investigated the entire Cape Verde Archipelago without finding any trace of living Macroscincus. Jim Pether also noted this in 1995. Pether undertook a trip to Cape Verde and found no living Macroscincus coctei but managed to still find bones of this species. Also in 1995, the Genus name of Macroscincus was switched to be included in the Genus Gonglyus (Interesting, considering that a species of Eugongylus was just discussed on the subject of dual forms of reproduction. If not direct relation, a close affinity of Macroscincus to this genus gives even greater credence to the possibility of some occurrences of Viviparism.) by Frank/Remus. In 1998, Andreone placed the species back in the separate Genus Macroscincus.
Probably due to the sparseness of the environment, Macroscincus was an opportunistic feeder. It is most likely that the Cape verde Giant Skink evolved from a carnivorous ancestry to a herbivorous diet consistent with the original biofauna of the Cape Verde Archipelago. After the devastation by man and his introduced animals 500 years ago, Macroscincus coctei probably switched to an omnivorous diet or more accurately, an on/off/on herbivore-carnivore-herbivore coinciding with the spring Leach Petrel breeding season. At other times, according to David Day, Macroscincus fed on Mallows (About the only game left in town) and their seeds. David Day noted that Macroscincus coctei would routinely enter the burrows and devour both the eggs and birds present. This explains the German captive Macroscincus devouring a bird. The available abundant source of avian nourishment was probably in good timing Macroscincus coctei's own breeding season. Developing eggs in the female is taxing enough but if the females were Vivparous by Matrotrophy, there would be even more of a drain of the females body reserves - especially if a single youngster was produced the length of time and size of the neonate of Corucia zebrata. More likely, Viviparism would have resulted in the birth of several, smaller youngsters.
It had been reported (Carranza S., Arnold E.N., Mateo J.A., Lopez-Jurado L.F. - 2001) that the ancestors of Macroscincus coctei arrived possibly by a rafting episode from the West African mainland in the Late Miocene or Early Pliocene period. Mitochondrial DNA sequences have indicated a close affinity and possible linkage to the same clade between Macroscincus coctei and the Mabuya genus. Although not a genetic link, SENI data gives both Macroscincus coctei and Mabuya striata sparsa (The Kalahari Black Tree Skink) a value of .13 which links the two species to the same ecological niche- low canopy arboreal (B. Schnirel, 2003). Evidence suggests that the Mayuba genus occupied the Northeastern islands of the Cape Verde Archipelage first, evolving into the various Mabuya species. The ancestor of Mayuba vaillanti and Mayuba delalanti may have originated on the island of Boavista. Subsequent decendants of this clade rafted to the islands of Ilheh'u Santiago or Ilheh'u Fogo. Later evolution in the Pliocene gives evidence of latter clade species of Mayuba fogoensis-Mayuba strangeri colonizing the islands of Ilheh'u Branco, Ilheh'u Razo (Two islands documented to be occupied later by Macroscincus coctei), Ilheh'u Sao Vincente, and Ilheh'u Santa Luzia by way of Ilheh'u Sao Nicolau. Subsequent migration led to the colonization of Ilheh'u Santo Antao. The evidence suggests these rafting episodes to the Northeastern islands was protracted due to the Northest Trade Winds and Canary Current although the Carranza et al. study also suggests the islands may have not have fully developed to the point of being hospitable for Scincidae occupation. The Southwestern islands were rapidly occupied after the speciation of Mabuya vaillanti and Mabuya delalanti. It is not known for certain why the Southwestern Islands were so rapidly occupied at a later time. It had been suggested in the Carranza et al. study that pre-Pleistocene volcanism may have kept skinks off the islands or completely obliterated all traces of earlier species that occupied them. Mabuya vaillanti evolved into a large Scincidae with herbivorous tendencies in the Southeastern islands; a parallism to Macroscincus coctei which evolved in the Northeastern islands.
It is, and will remain unfortunately forever unknown if Macroscincus coctei had a Circulus relationship. If a large single neonate was not produced after a long gestation, a Circulus relationship may have not had to evolve to protect the single large genetic investment. As such, a more loose association of some sort may have been the rule. The Male dewlap may have been used as in other lizards- i.e. Anoles. A territory may have been established by the male with females coming and going randomly. Any female wandering in the male's territory would be subject to submission and mating if the conditions were right. After mating, no lasting relationship was extant.
It is indeed remarkable that Macroscincus coctei lasted as long as it did. For hundreds of years, the vegetation and land scape as noted had been eradicated. Many indigenous species had vanished long before. The art of survival of Macroscincus coctei was more surprising given the fact that the species remained on two islands diminutive in size and with great hunting pressure on them. Fortunately, a SENI value of .13 apparently was low enough to adjust from a lower Arboreal herbivorous niche to a ground-level / near saxicolous existence in the conditions of squalor. A trophic level switch was also more possible from herbivory given the lower SENI value compared to Corucia zebrata-a high canopy herbivore (SENI value .17). The Pink-Tongue skink which is a Semi-Arboreal carnivore, has a SENI value of .11. That Macroscincus coctei lasted as long as it did is a testiment to the hardiness of this lizard.

This song was copyrighted in 1908 (and thus is now in the public domain), and the "foes of earth" were primarily the Italian government, and only secondarily Baptists, Jews, and Communists. The lyrics are sometimes an intriguing application of the principle of "Imitatio Christi", though even the saintliest pope makes at best an ersatz Jesus.Long live the Pope! His praises sound Again and yet again:
His rule is over space and time; His throne the hearts of men:
All hail! the Shepherd King of Rome, The theme of loving song:
: || : Let all the earth his glory sing, And heav'n the strain prolong. : || :
Beleaguered by the foes of earth, Beset by hosts of hell,
He guards the loyal flock of Christ, A watchful sentinel:
And yet, amid the din and strife, The clash of mace and sword,
: || : He bears alone the shepherd staff, This champion of the Lord. : || :
His signet is the Fisherman's; No sceptre does he bear;
In meek and lowly majesty He rules from Peter's Chair:
And yet from every tribe and tongue,
From every clime and zone,
: || : Three hundred million voices sing, The glory of his throne. : || :
Then raise the chant, with heart and voice, In church and school and home:
"Long live the Shepherd of the Flock! Long live the Pope of Rome!"
Almighty Father, bless his work, Protect him in his ways,
: || : Receive his prayers, fulfill his hopes, And grant him "length of days." : || :
I spoke too soon; it's still not letting me post.
Finally, it's letting me stay on the site long enough to edit those annoying split ends... And the repeat signs that automorphed into quizzical, disapproving emotica...
I underlined "Three hundred m[illion]" to remind those who like to update their lyrics that "A thousand m[illion]" ore even "More than a b[illion]" may be sung here.

JACKSONVILLE, Ala. – The Tigers went toe-to-toe with Jacksonville State Saturday night but the Gamecocks prove to be too much, downing Tennessee State, 3-0
Junior Naomi Wells continued her strong play from Tennessee Tech into Saturday night's match against Jacksonville State. The Huntsville, Ala. native posted a double-double on the night with 17 kills and 14 digs. From her outside hitter position, Wells posted a .239 hitting percentage.
Wells was joined on the offensive end by freshman Arijana Anderson, the Muncie, Ind. native posted nine kills and a team high .286 hitting percentage in the match.
Senior Erika Moss once again propelled the Tigers attack, with 39 assists to go along with 20 digs giving her a double-double for the night.
Jacksonville State (11-10, 4-2) came out firing in the first to take an early 6-2 lead. Tennessee State (6-11, 2-4) chipped away at the Gamecocks advantage getting within two points, at 14-12, after an Erika Moss ace.
The Tigers got within just one point of the lead on two occasions, with the latest being 19-18, after an Arijana Anderson kill. Jacksonville State maintained their poise to close the opening set, 25-21.
TSU returned the Jacksonville State run in the second set blitzing out to a 10-5 lead, capped by a Sherryce Butler kill. The Gamecocks retook the lead 14-11, with the help of a 9-1 run. Both teams traded points with the Tigers staying within striking distance.
With TSU trailing 23-19, coach Kathy Roulhac's team used a 6-1 stretch to knot the set at 24. Wells' attacks highlighted the span racking up two kills of her own. Anderson provided the kill and the Tigers had tied the set for the first time since 11-11. The rally ended there though, with Jacksonville State taking back-to-back points winning the set 26-24.
The home team raced out to an early 5-0 lead out of the locker room. Tennessee State returned the push with a run of their own, taking the 6-5 lead after collecting six straight points. Upperclassmen Wells and Moss lead the charge for the Tigers with Wells racking up three kills and Moss chipping in with a service ace.
The lead would seesaw back-and-forth throughout the third frame, with the set being tied 11 times. With Tennessee State leading by just a point, 21-20, the Tigers reeled off three straight points to get within one point of closing out the set. The run included back-to-back kills from Butler and Wells combined with a set error from Jacksonville State.
TSU couldn't close out the set as the Gamecocks rattled off four points to lock the frame, 24-24. The two OVC foes battled closely to end the frame with four lead changes and five ties, with Jacksonville State taking the final lead and the set, 30-28. Winning the set gave the Gamecocks the 3-0 win in OVC showdown.
Tennessee State will return to action with an out of conference match-up with in-state rival Memphis. First serve is set for 6 p.m.

Jens Alder nominated for the UBS Board of Directors
Zurich, 11 January 2002 - At the Annual General Meeting to be held in Basel on 18 April 2002, the UBS Board of Directors will propose that shareholders elect Jens Alder, CEO of the Swisscom Group, to the board, the bank's highest governing body.
After completion of his studies in electrical engineering at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich, Jens Alder (44) held various executive positions at Standard Telephon & Radio AG, Alcatel STR AG and Motor Columbus AG. In 1998, he was appointed to the Swisscom Executive Board as Head of the Network Services Business Unit, after which he was made Chief Executive Officer of the Swiss telecommunications company in December 1999. He has led the partially privatized group to success in a difficult market environment, drawing on the broad knowledge he has gained as an entrepreneur. Jens Alder also holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from Insead in Fontainebleau, France.
"It is a great pleasure to nominate Jens Alder to our Board of Directors," says Marcel Ospel, Chairman of UBS," and thus gain the skills and services of another leading entrepreneur. He will bring fresh energy to our board and contribute his know-how in the ever more important telecommunications business."
For Jens Alder, his nomination is more than simply a personal vote of confidence: it is an expression of the esteem in which Swisscom is held in the business world and in society at large. "My involvement with UBS will mean a double boon. I am convinced that Swisscom, too, as well as its customers will profit from my experience on the Board of Directors of Switzerland's largest bank."
Markus Kündig, Vice-Chairman of the UBS Board of Directors, will step down from his post at that same Annual General Meeting, now that he has reached the statutory age of retirement. The election of Jens Alder and of Ernesto Bertarelli, CEO of Serono International SA, whose nomination was decided earlier, will again bring the Board's membership to ten.
Zurich / Basel, 11 January 2002
