Darwin's Insights Continue to Inspire the Academy's Work on Synthesizing Research and Education About
Evolutionary Biology and Beyond
The ideas of Charles Darwin and the concept of evolution by natural selection continue to have a profound influence on modern biology they permeate almost every area of scientific exploration. The Academies have long been involved in educational activities and publications on many aspects of evolution, and especially during the past five years. For example, in 2008 the National Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Medicine jointly published Science, Evolution, and Creationism, to help people who are interested in evolution better understand its underlying principles and how evolution is an integral component of scientific research and thinking.
In 2009 the National Academy of Sciences joined many other organizations in the international scientific community to celebrate the 'Year of Science,' which commemorated Darwins 200th birthday and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his masterwork On the Origin of Species. Information about some of the events we hosted as part of this celebration can be accessed through our event archive.
In 2010, the National Academy of Sciences awarded its most prestigious award, the Public Medal, to Dr. Eugenie Scott, Director of the National Center for Science Education, for her distinguished work to "
improve public understanding of both the nature of science and the science of evolution (from comments by Dr. Ralph Cicerone, President, National Academy of Sciences during the presentation of the Public Medal).
In 2011, the National Research Councils Board on Life Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences organized a convocation to bring together people from the life sciences community to explore ways to infuse concepts of evolution into all areas of biology education. Thinking Evolutionarily: Evolution Education Across the Life Sciences (2012) explains the major themes that recurred throughout the convocation held in Washington, D.C. They include the structure and content of curricula, the processes of teaching and learning about evolution, the tensions that can arise in the classroom, and the target audiences for evolution education. Videos from plenary sessions, interviews with participants, and resources from the convocation that led to this report may be accessed here.
In 2012 the National Research Council also released the report A Framework for K-12 Science Education: Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Core Ideas as a first step toward developing the next generation of K-12 science education standards. The study of evolution is one of the themes running throughout this report with section LS4 focusing specifically on biological evolution. The Next Generation Science Standards will be released in Spring 2013.
Research about evolution also has served as the basis for technical reports and research conferences that have been hosted by the National Academy of Sciences during the past five years: They include:

Say, did you hear the one about how the NHL would suffer "lasting and permanent" damage from the last lockout? The league would lose tons of fans, buildings would be empty and hockey would be relegated to just above skeet shooting in the national sports hierarchy.
Like the old, funny Hertz TV ads, those and other predictions of doom for the NHL did "not exactly" turn out that way. A few cases in point:
• In Philadelphia, 15,000 people came to see a preseason scrimmage.
• The Pittsburgh Penguins drew all-time high local TV ratings for their first few games, and merchandise at their team stores was purchased at such a rate the team had trouble restocking supplies.
• After the first week of the lockout-shortened season, according to The Hockey News, NHL arenas were filled at 99.1 percent capacity — up 6.6 percent from the previous year.
• The first games of the season on NBC — Pittsburgh vs. Philadelphia and Chicago vs. Los Angeles — drew the highest ratings for a regular-season, non-Winter Classic game since 1999.
It seems clear now: Hockey fans couldn't wait for their sport to come back, and they gave it a big, warm embrace when it did. Without patting myself on the back too much — it's already pretty sore from other self-congratulatory pats — I thought all along this would happen. Provided, that is, there still was a season of some kind this year. If it had been all wiped out again? Then I think we would have seen some serious damage.
But we've all become conditioned to expect a work stoppage, or threats of one, in any sport every few years. Yes, this lockout was annoying to hockey fans, but the interest in the game's resumption was intense. On the final night of the lockout — morning, actually, Jan. 6 — a crazy number of people remained awake and following every snippet of news on Twitter. When it was over, fans were delirious.
Of course, some problems remain. The Avs had an announced crowd of only 13,776 (76.5 percent capacity) for Wednesday's game against Anaheim, and probably only about 11,000 fans were actually in the building. But those are the kinds of crowds the Avs have drawn a lot in the past few years. They're not a winning team, and nothing sells tickets like a winner.
Fans are down on the Avs right now because of all the injuries to really good players, and because of the ongoing Ryan O'Reilly holdout. Now, that is a situation that could do some lasting damage to this franchise if it doesn't find a way to solve it soon, one way or the other, because fans are furious that a team with a rich owner and $18 million to spend under the salary cap can't find a way to sign its leading scorer from last season. The Avs aren't talking about the matter, which is compounding the problem. Continued...
Phoenix remains a complete embarrassment to the NHL too. The Coyotes still don't have their ownership situation settled and still aren't drawing flies. A crowd of only 8,355 elbowed into Jobing.com Arena (sexy name, isn't it?) to see a recent Coyotes game against Columbus.
But every league has its equivalent of the embarrassing family uncle. The larger point is, hockey fans are not as many in number, especially in the United States, as in other major sports, but they are insanely passionate about the game.
Those who predicted all that major damage for the sport during the lockout just didn't get that.

Start with your e-mail accounts, which can be used to gain access to your other online accounts. Gmail and Yahoo both offer two-factor authentication, but Outlook currently does not. Cloud storage services with two-factor include Dropbox, Google Drive and Microsoft's Sky Drive. Apple's iCloud does not yet offer it. Facebook has its own two-factor feature called login approvals.
Two-factor can be a hassle to use and will take some getting used to, but it's a small inconvenience to avoid the much larger, more devastating inconvenience of being hacked.
Scan old photos
We all have them. The stacks of old photos hidden in boxes under the bed or collecting dust in basements. If you don't have digital copies of these gems, stop stalling and start scanning. Natural disasters, floods and fires can wipe out film memories in an instant. To scan your images, get a flatbed scanner and place multiple images on the bed at a time. You can crop and retouch individual pictures later.
If manually scanning in each old photo sounds like too big (or boring) of an undertaking, you can hire a company to do it for you. Many local camera stores offer bulk-scanning services and will return your originals along with high-resolution TIFFs or JPEGs on a CD or hard drive. And you can store copies of your photos online in case your laptop crashes (see resolution No. 1).
If you're comfortable sending your photos away, the best option is using a company that specialize in bulk photo scanning. They'll even do light retouching and repairs for older pictures, videos and slides. Check out ScanDigital.com or ScanCafe.com.
Step away from the smartphone
If you spend most of the day with your nose buried a smartphone, tablet or computer, make an effort to break out of the digital world and interact more with the humans around you in 2013. Don't habitually check your online social networks while hanging out with your flesh-and-blood friends. On a date? Don't even think about texting. (Unless the date is going horribly and they're in the bathroom and you need to arrange an emergency extraction.)
Attempt to live in the moment instead of just documenting the moment on Instagram. Yes, that sunset will look stunning with the Valencia filter, but it will look even better through your own eyeballs.
There's a time and a place for texting and e-mailing and checking Twitter. But this year, let's try to leave the screens in our pockets and bags more often and engage with the world around us.

Return To Cuba
Comments110this wiki
Information | |
Available from | August 31, 2011 |
Available until | September 6, 2011 |
Type | Limited Time Mission Event |
Limited Time Mission Event available from August 31, 2011 to September 6, 2011.
With the Neo-Imperium distracted by their criminal activities in other parts of the world, your chance has come to sneak back into Cuba. Your job progress will start for where you left off, but you'll find a new tier of job mastery and powerful new loot. Be sure to hurry though, the Neo-Imperium won't be fooled for long. Grab what you can while you can, because this temporary visa won't last forever.
" | Cuba Event Developer Explanation: Due to player request, we will be re-opening Cuba temporarily for 2 weeks. Many players are disappointed that they no longer have access to Cuba job progress and properties, so we wanted to attempt a temporary re-opening through a limited time event to see how players enjoy it. During this time users will have access to Cuba with new added loot drops. Their job progress will be the same as when they left it. Additionally, for those players who already finished Cuba, we are releasing a Ruby tier of Job Mastery. We are very aware of the dedication players have put into finishing Cuba, so we wanted to make sure everyone has something to tackle in the re-opening, along with high end loot drops and new mastery items for completing Ruby Tiers. We would really like to hear your feedback on this event, the Cuba shutdown event, and future city releases and events. We strive to make sure the new city content we release is the best for our players that it can be! Thanks everyone – and good luck dealing with the Neo-Imperium!-Mafia Wars Blog | " |
As an extra during this event, the Old Cannon (110 75 185) also drops from Jobs and Fights (with a limit of 10/day). You can also master jobs until Ruby Mastery.
Due to an issue in the game, some players will see in the Castle section, "Rob 8 Mega Casinos", while others will see, "Rob 8 Bribery Rings'. Either way, all players will still get the same rewards.
The Cat Is AwayEdit
"Now's our chance: the Neo-Imperium has let down their guard in Cuba. Let's get in there and take back what's ours!" - Sam Hadwick "It's a good start, but we have a lot of work to do." - Sam Hadwick

"If we're going to start a war, we need some weapons." - Sam Hadwick "Nicely done. I knew you were up for this." - Sam Hadwick
Nobody Say NothingEdit
"A local gang leader loyal to the Neo-Imperium is getting suspicious of your activity. Take him out before they are alerted to your presence." - Sam Hadwick "He won't be warning anyone of anything now." - Sam Hadwick
With Us Or Against UsEdit
"Local crime lords need to be brought into line. Go and have a chat with them." - Sam Hadwick "Good work. Now you've got the support you need." - Sam Hadwick
Come One, Come AllEdit
"Rally your allies! This is going to take some serious coordination." - Sam Hadwick "The Neo-Imperium won't know what hit 'em." - Sam Hadwick
"People have been snooping around our headquarters. We need to move our supplies to a new location." - Sam Hadwick "Good. Now we're almost ready for our assault." - Sam Hadwick
Steal The WordsEdit

2012 Delegate Count: Scoring the Scorecards
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Mitt Romney leads the delegate count by a large margin regardless of what source you trust, but voters likely have wondered who is correct.
To be clear, Romney captured the presumed-Republican-nominee title when Rick Santorum darted from the race, and it became especially clearer when Newt Gingrich said Wednesday that he would officially shut down his run on May 1. That leaves only Ron Paul, and he can't overcome Romney's delegate count.
Mitt Romney |
A side-by-side comparison of TheGreenPapers.com, The Associated Press, CNN and RealClearPolitics.com show varying delegate counts that fluctuate generously for some candidates and appear identical with others.
But how does one parse through the tedious state conventions, caucuses, and primaries to determine a hard number of delegates that decide the true winner of a party's nomination?
"Very early on
TheGreenPapers.com, unlike its valuable delegate-counting counterparts, devotes an entire page to each U.S. state, district and territory to explain their particular delegate processes involved -- the sum of which ultimately decides the major party nominees.
In the above graphic you will note that TheGreenPapers.com allocates the least number of delegates to Romney in comparisons against the AP, CNN and RealClearPolitics.com. Part of the reason is that TheGreenPapers.com doesn't speculate about delegates in caucus states that have held straw polls, but haven't officially selected national delegates.

So, lists are My New Thing now, it seems.
2. I hadn't really verbalized this here, but I was starting to get the eensiest bit worried about the fact that Lo didn't really seem interested in the whole walking thing. I mean, she was cruising, and she was getting the CONCEPT of walking, kind of, but her idea of getting it was "one step, two step, fling self bodily towards parent." We'd decided that if she really wasn't progressing by 15 months, I'd call the pediatrician and try to pass it off like I was casually speaking, all breezy-like, when in fact I was reading from a prepared page wherein I'd outlined my concerns, and as such, we would then undoubtedly have a super-stilted conversation where I would say things like "I am well, thank you for inquiring." (Am I the only person that WRITES SCRIPTS for Difficult Conversations?) Well. As luck would have it, she took a whole mess of steps yesterday (15 months old TO THE DAY, wouldn't you know). Every time she did, we'd lavish praise upon her, to the point that when we didn't leap around shrieking "YAYYYYY!" and clapping, she would give us this quizzical look, all "Are you not recalling what comes next?" Clearly, this is an excellent precedent to have set.
3. It's my birthday on Saturday. And I tell you, HONESTLY, that I completely forgot until J brought it up this morning. Isn't that sad?
4. Regarding my last post, I did, in fact get to meet someone from Mad Men; specifically, January Jones. I know. I KNOW. I'm writing a whole post about that (as well as some of the other people I spoke to and events I attended at Fashion Week) for BlogHer, and I'll post a link once that's up. Also? While I'm on the subject of future posts, I have an "Ask a Jew" post I've been working on FOREVER, which will be posted soon. (I haven't forgotten!)
5. So, it was a resounding "YES" on the release of my workout playlist, then. It's an ever-evolving, work in progress, so feel free to add your favorites! Wait--scratch that; PLEASE add your favorites!

I love your workout playlist! It's scarily similar to mine. For the laugh factor (and because it's totally awesome), one of my favourites on my playlist is Good Vibrations by good ole' Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. Even though I'm giggling the whole way through it, it has a fantastic beat. Also, some Metallica and Offspring are guaranteed to keep me moving.
- arturo said...
You workout playlist is very similar to mine as well. You should add Sexy Bitch by David Guetta, it's the ultimate workout song.
- Sarah said...
My own personal favorites are pretty similar. (Although I prefer "7 Things" to "Hoedown Throwdown.") That said, here are a few gems that you might like, but not yet have:
Weapons of Mass Destruction - The Crystal Method
I KNOW. It sounds awful, but...It was used in some of the previews for one of the Bourne movies. I tend to envision myself as a badass action movie heroine when I run to this. (Any music that lets me pretend I'm in my own personal music video? Works for me.)
With David Bowie - Veruca Salt
See You Again - Jenny Bliss
Into the Nightlife - Cyndi Lauper (it's the refrain that's so catchy.)
Star to Fall (Club Mix) - Cabin Crew
Summer Rain (Zander Radio Edit) - Slinkee Minx (I tend to refer to this as a "zoolander radio edit." Dork.)
And to finish it off...
Top Gun Anthem (Harold Faltemeyer) from the Top Gun Soundtrack. - Seriously. Put this at the end, and use it as your cool down song. (I stole this idea from an instructor who used to teach a great spinning class at my gym.) You'll feel like a dork, maybe. But no one can hear the magic on your iPod, so who cares? - 6:16 AM
Yay Lo!!!! I am so excited!! I can't wait to see it! If I am not peeling over and dying on Monday I will be sure to jump up and down for her!

I totally script out difficult conversations, but when it's go time I chicken out and stammer "well, I, uh, no, everything's fine..."
- justshireen said...
My somewhat shameful song that gets me motivated? Carry On Wayward Son - Kansas
Lose Yourself - Eminem
Training Montage - Rocky IV
Go Faster - The Black Crowes - 12:25 PM
- Kristabella said...
Happy almost birthday! I knew it was coming up because Facebook told. me. I love Facebook for that.
How exciting for Lo! I would also like praise and applause every time I take steps. Or at least every time I get out of bed and come to work. Can you do that? :)
Some of my favorite workout songs to add to your mix, that is if I ever do find a cure to my Lazies and actually work out:
City is at War - Cobra Starship
I Don't Feel Like Dancing - Scissor Sisters
Entourage - Omarion - 1:14 PM
- Hillary said...
Time is Running Out by Muse is a great workout tune. My workout mix features a lot of Muse stuff actually. It's got the perfect blend of fast beats and a male singer with a sexy, scruffy voice to keep me motivated.
- kerrianne.org said...
I totally! write scripts for difficult conversations. But I always end up scribbling them and then they are mostly unreadable which is not quite so helpful, it turns out.
Also: I firmly maintain that Pump It! is THE BEST work-out song ever.
I also have "On a Boat" on my running mix because smiling while running is sort of my favorite thing to do. It tricks everyone (including me!) into thinking I love! running! and that nope! it doesn't hurt at all! (HAAAAAA.) - 2:57 PM
- chris said...
I have a bunch of these same songs on my "work out" playlist, though I really don't ever work out. I think about running though when I listen to the playlist so it counts, right?
Maria - Blondie
Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers
I Ran So Far- Flock of Seagulls
Poker Face- Lady Gaga - 3:03 PM
- meganonymous said...
Rusted Root - Martyr
See if you can keep from doing the "boobie shimmy" while listening to that one!
- Avitable said...
How old are you going to be? I'd have to guess 25 if I based it on how you look in person but 30 if I had to guess based on how you come across in email.
- Ali said...
huzzah! can't wait for some good franken-LO video! ;)
um, whatever, I *may* have a song from Camp Rock on my workout playlist...um, and more than one Miley Cyrus. oh, and something by Carrie Underwood. GAH. - 10:00 PM
- moosh in indy. said...
Freakishly similar.
- Christine said...
YAY Lo! Also, if you're interested in a play list addition: Gnarles Barkley - Run. Something about Cee Lo screaming, RUN at me over and over again makes me feel like I should.
- Michelle said...
Lots of similar workout song choices! You've got to add Basement Jaxx - Take Me Back To Your House. It's a great one that always gets me started when I'd really rather just, I don't know, go sit somewhere and eat Nutella from the jar.
- SLynnRo said...
Most excellent list. Now, will you buy me a new iPod to replace my SECOND DAMN BROKEN ONE IN TWO YEARS OMG?
- OHmommy said...
I just got an ipod in July and finally started to put music on it today. Totally copied so many of your tunes. You have awesome taste. Thanks for posting this. It was a great place for me to start! - 8:53 PM
A workout list should include something by Pitbull. :) My favorites:
Crazy, Fuego, Ay Chico, and Hotel Room.
Universal Mind Control by Common
Lean Like a Cholo by Down
Boom Boom Pow by Black Eyed Peas
3 by Britney Spears (it's her new one!)
Let It Rock by Kevin Rudolf
Dangerous by Akon
Elevator by Flo Rida
Temperature by Sean Paul
That is about 1/8 of my list. :) Thanks for sharing yours! - 11:00 AM

This contemporary three piece occasional table set offers all the urban sophistication you love with none of the pretense that all too often accompanies it. The smooth surfaces, minimal embellishment and straight lines that characterize contemporary decor are all present here, from flat rectangular tops that provide an ideal resting place for lamps and decorative accents to sleek legs that end in tapered feet. A rectangular coffee table is perfectly proportioned for pairing with your sofa or couch, and each of the matching end tables echoes the lower storage shelf featured on the coffee table for a cohesive living room table collection. A rich cappuccino finish wraps each piece for a chic and stylish conclusion.

About alwaysakid's Garage
About me and my passion for cars
I've been into cars for as long as I can remember and have attended car shows in at least 10 different states from the Eastern Seaboard to the Rocky Mountains over the past 30 years. I like original antique cars, but have a taste for street rods and customs as well. I like the styling of the 1950s best. I currently own a two-owner 1961 Thunderbird, a 1950 Studebaker, and a modified 1951 Chevy sedan delivery that will soon belong to my son. Past rides of interest have included a 1960 Oldsmobile 88, 1954 Nash Metropolitan, 1958 Mercury Monteclair, 1966 Chevy Nova, 1971 Chevy Caprice and a 1968 Rambler American, not necessarily in that order.
My first car
My first car, a 1973 Datsun 610, was bought more out of practicality and as a political statement than for its styling or performance.
Car I wish I still had
I wish I still had my 1966 Nova, minus the damage a Rochester, NY taxi did to it one day when my wife was driving it. That was back before they knew how to straighten a bent frame.
My dream car
I'll try to keep the list as short as I can. But near the top would be a 1936 or 1937 Cord, 1955 or 1956 Ford Fairlane Victoria and a 1957-1960 Studebaker Hawk.

I heard it from another forum. The claim was it was similar to Rush's, but partial tears don't hurt and you can't really feel them. So it was not a source or anything, just someones observation. And my first thought when I saw it happen was a partial tear too. I think I am probably wrong though. |

Xiipúktan (First of All): Three Accounts of the Origins of the Quechan People
Author: George Bryant (linguistic work by Amy Miller)
Forthcoming in 2013.
This book is part of our World Oral Literature Series in conjunction with the World Oral Literature Project.
The Quechan people live along the lower part of the Colorado River in the United States. According to tradition, the Quechan and other Yuman people were created at the beginning of time, and their Creation myth explains how they came into existence, the origin of their environment, and the significance of their oldest traditions. The Creation myth forms the backdrop against which much of the tribes extensive oral literature may be understood.
At one time there were almost as many different versions of the Quechan creation story as there were Quechan families. Now few people remember them. This volume, presented in the Quechan language with facing-column translation, provides three views of the origins of the Quechan people. One synthesizes narrator George Bryants childhood memories and later research. The second is based upon J. P. Harringtons A Yuma Account of Origins (1908). The third provides a modern view of the origins of the Quechan, beginning with the migration from Asia to the New World and ending with the settlement of the Yuman tribes at their present locations.
This collection is for the Quechan people and will also interest linguists, anthropologists, oral literature specialists, and anyone curious about Native American culture.

George Bryant was born in 1921 and grew up in a Quechan-speaking family. He attended school on Fort Yuma Reservation and later at the Phoenix Indian School, Yuma High School, and the Sherman Institute. As a young man he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, serving in combat in the Pacific in World War II and in Korea. Later he was elected to the Quechan Tribal Council, where he was involved in getting the federal government to restore tribal lands and in planning many of the projects that have made the tribe successful today. He is now retired and lives in Yuma, Arizona.
Bryant follows a family tradition of working to preserve the Quechan language. His grandfather, Chappo Bryant, and his father, Michael Bryant, were both involved in linguistics projects with linguist A. M. Halpern in the 1930s. George Bryant has been working with linguist Amy Miller since 1998. He is the primary contributor to the forthcoming Quechan Dictionary, and (along with Barbara Levy, Millie Romero, and Amy Miller) he devoted many years to translating stories for the forthcoming volume Stories from Quechan Oral Literature from the Collection of A. M. Halpern.
Amy Miller earned a PhD in linguistics from the University of California, San Diego, where she studied with Margaret Langdon. She is the author of A Grammar of Jamul Tiipay (2001), co-author of the Barona Inter-Tribal Dictionary (2008), and co-editor of Karúk: Native Accounts of the Quechan Mourning Ceremony by A.M. Halpern (1997). She has been studying and documenting Yuman languages since 1984.

This pilot project provided training for First Nations staff interested in using the telehealth systems in the DHSS Community Health Centers. These systems are available to First Nations staff during regular hours and supported by DHSS.
The project also proposed the installation of video conferencing systems and the provision of staff training for the four sites that are currently piloting this technology. These sites were coordinated with the Teslin Tlingit Council, Kluane First Nation, Champagne Aishihik First Nation, and the Council of Yukon First Nations. Site visits were completed with these four communities to verify needs, site readiness, and current technical infrastructure. Equipment installation and training was completed in November of 2008.The technical requirements for both the network and the equipment were provided in the plan. The implementation process included the workflow analysis, site-training plan and technical training plan. The roles and responsibilities of the project team are clearly defined.
Project documentation is provided through the links found on the right hand side of this page.

Yes, obviously.

The Linux kernel is patent encumbered. The GIMP saved GIFs when LZW was still patented.
This does not prevent either from being free software.

I would say *proven* to infringe a patent. And that needs a court case. And a bucketload of money. And not $1 bills.
So, all software is free, and the patent system is broken, and keeps approving patents which, if challenged, would be invalidated. So, as I said, I don't worry about patents, and I don't think a patent should ever be a reason not to write a piece of free software.
Cheers, Dave.

This is the before photo. I took an antique wooden board, this one came off of an old door, it was one of the door panels. It had some old chippy white paint already on it so I just cleaned it up a bit.
I actually used my new favorite transfer paper to adhere the image to the board! This is the Iron on Transfer Paper that I used. It's called Tap and it's made by Lesley Riley. It's truly fabulous stuff! (For more about Tap, go HERE to see a project that I did previously.)I used the reverse print image above, and printed the image onto the transfer paper, using my inkjet printer. I then used my iron to transfer the image to the wood. Some of the paint did curl up a bit when I did it, this would probably work better with a smoother surface, but I'm still quite pleased with the results. I'm not sure if this would work as well with a latex paint, it might melt. The paint on this board is probably oil and it's been on there for a very long time.
Of course you can also use the printable to make towels, tote bags, pillows or whatever else you like!

Football: Leyden's big plays help Haverford topple Marple Newtown
HAVERFORD – He's in his 21st season at the helm of Haverford High's football team, and with the Fords' 28-14 triumph over Marple Newtown Friday night, Joe Gallagher earned his 105th career victory as the Fords' boss.
Don't bother asking him if he outsmarted Tigers coach Ray Gionta, if it was a question of Xs and Os, or if a week of dissecting MN film made all the difference. Instead, Gallagher prefers to boil down the reason why he's been able to rack up triple-digit wins to...
"Good players make coaches look smart," Gallagher said with a chuckle.
Luckily for Gallagher and the Fords, there's a pretty good crew of players that the coach can rely on in much the same way that he relied on running back Kevin Leyden against the Tigers. After Tommy Davis sent MN (1-4, 1-3 Central League) into the locker room at halftime with a 7-6 lead after he connected with Joe Vegso on a 39-yard touchdown off of playaction, Gallagher made a concerted effort to get Leyden the ball more. After a first half that included only three rushes for 12 yards, Leyden exploded in the second half with seven carries for 125 yards and two touchdowns on the ground to finish with 10 carries for 137 yards, and he also added a 24-yard scoring reception when he caught a seam route out of the slot from quarterback Eddie Durkin. Durkin didn't have his best outing with a 3-for-11 game marred by two interceptions from Ross Binder, but the throw to Leyden was right where it needed to be.
"It feels good to have that confidence rewarded," Leyden said. "Running the inside zone all first half opened things up, and they weren't expecting the jet (sweeps) to come. Ended up with good blocking on the outside and ended up making it happen."
Alex Drum was the recipient of those inside carries as he racked up 61 yards on 10 carries, including a five-yard plunge that kickstarted the scoring. But Leyden was the story in the second half as he and the Haverford (4-1, 3-1) offensive line abused the edges to continually pick up huge chunks of yardage. His first touchdown scamper, a 17-yard twisting, shaking, spinning jaunt down the sideline, will have a spot on his highlight reel, as will his game-icing 80-yard touchdown where he got a great downfield block from wide receiver Marcus Sydnor.
"(The 80-yard TD run) was exactly how we drew it up," Gallagher said jokingly. "And the one where he spinned, like, 20 times, I showed him that. I coached everything he did."
Leyden didn't quite remember it like his coach did, though.
"I don't think that's true," Leyden said with a smile. "There were some good blocks out there, and I ended up seeing daylight and making it happen. He did draw (the 80-yarder) up, though. Marcus had a great block and made it happen."
The Tigers got a great offensive effort from Michael White, who ran for 127 yards and a touchdown on 16 totes, but a pair of stalled drives deep in Haverford territory foiled their chance of coming away with an upset.

MyPerfectAutomobile has a website update that analyzes this week's financial results from Tesla Motors, and examines the newest hybrid concept car from McLaren, as well as Volkswagen's release of data on the electric Golf.
San Jose, CA (PRWEB) February 23, 2013
Tesla Motors Announces Q4 Financial Data
Tesla Motors' officials report that the automaker expects to show a profit when first quarter results for 2013 are released. Until today, the company's CEO, Elon Musk, had said he expected the carmaker to turn a profit much later this year, thus today's report was an overall positive announcement for the firm. Even though the electric car manufacturer reported an $89 million loss for the fourth quarter of 2012, it delivered ten times as many Model S cars in the fourth quarter than in the third, and is continuing to ramp up production. For the complete story, see:
McLaren to Make Hybrid P1
One of the planet's most powerful hybrid automobiles will debut at the Geneva Auto Show in March. The McLaren P1 will offer a 903-horsepower engine system and 663 foot-pounds of torque. The plug-in hybrid successor to the F1 comes with a charging unit that can re-up the battery pack in just two hours. The mid-engine V8 twin-turbo is actually a reworked M838T teamed with an electric motor. The rear-wheel-drive P1 boasts a featherweight, 212-pound battery on the underside of its carbon-fiber chassis. Exact pricing and fuel economy data are currently unavailable, but a million-dollar price tag is expected. For the complete story, see:
Volkswagen Releases Data on Electric Golf
As a lead-in to its appearance at next month's Geneva Auto Show, Volkswagen's e-Golf has been getting plenty of media ink, notably for its prospective 109-mile-per-charge range and 5-hour charge time. Boasting a maximum speed of 84 mph and a respectable 0-to-60 mph run of less than 12 seconds, the e-Golf is part of the German auto giant's latest "offensive," which includes the introduction of at least seven fresh models.

Great tennis shoes!

Stylish Tennis Shoe
By Mother of Competitive Tennis Player
from NJ
About Me Competitive Athlete
Bought these tennis shoes for my daughter who is a competitive tennis player. They are the same as the white ones she always wears and loves. There's never a break-in period so we stock up on them. I bought these because they have blue accents this time which match her school/team uniform. She played in an indoor hard-court tournament this past weekend and said she slipped a few times with these tennis shoes. I was very surprised to hear that and compared them to the white ones she always wears. The tread is different, and I wonder if these don't give her as much grip. We will continue to use them and the 2nd pair I bought and I'll update my review at a later date. I really hope that's not the case.

The Starkville Daily News reports that the city board had approved the raises Jan. 2 on a 6-1 vote. Wiseman vetoed it Tuesday.
The proposal would increase the aldermen's annual pay from $12,000 to $15,000 and the mayor's salary from $60,000 to $71,500. It would have been effective in fiscal year 2015.
Wiseman says he wants the salary issue for the board and the mayor addressed after Mississippi State University's John C. Stennis Institute of Government completes a survey of municipal salaries and makes recommendations.
Wiseman says he thought it was unwise to increase the salaries of the elected officials before considering raises for city workers.

Asliuf :
I'm 17 and a Junior in High School. I'm pretty set on studying music in college. I would like to study Composition, and perhaps eventually Conducting. A list of some of the schools I'm considering:
New England Conservatory
Boston Conservatory
Longy School of Music
San Fransicso Conservatory
U michigan
Clevland Institue of Music
Indiana university
U of I
As a reference to how 'good' a musician i am (silly as that sounds…) I've attended the Illinois All State convention for french horn, I also qualified for voice. I've performed on WFMT, Chicago's classical radio station on piano. This summer i was accepted to both Interlochen and NHSMI's composition programs; I will be attending NHSMI for five weeks. I also plan to learn violin this summer. (uber excited about that!)
My questions are very open: I invite anyone who knows anything in particular about the above (or other) music schools to tell me what they know about the composition department, the campus life, or anything at all. Based on my (admittedly brief) resume, are schools like Curtis and Julliard out of my league? what about schools like Oberlin and Lawrence? Are schools like USC, U mich, still good pathways to a successful music career for a composer or conductor, or something else? Which schools offer good merit aid? General Career advice also welcome.
(Disclaimer: Obviously this site isn't the best source for information, but there seem to be some pretty knowledgeable people who peruse the classical music section. I'm doing other research as much as possible, and I figured I'd give this a try, too.)
