In a ruling intended to maximize participation, the Halton Secondary School Athletic Association (HSSAA) has said that it will no longer allow girls to play both rep and high school hockey after this season.
But many associated with girls' hockey believe the decision will have the exact opposite effect.
"We would be devastated. It would end our program," said Eric Bulthuis, director of athletics and physical education at King's Christian Collegiate, which iced a girls' hockey team for the first time this year. "We have 14 girls, most of whom play rep. Without them, we definitely wouldn't have a team. It would be a huge disappointment."
For more than 30 years, the HSSAA has not allowed rep players in its boys' hockey league. In its ruling, the HSSAA said not allowing girls rep players was "to bring alignment and consistency of current practice."
Last year, Oakville resident Kevin Kokotailo put forward a complaint to the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario claiming the ban on rep players was discriminatory against boys.
Requests for an interview with a member of the HSSAA board were referred to Halton District School Board (HDSB) associate director Jeff Blackwell. Blackwell does not sit on the HSSAA board but oversees extra curriculars for the HDSB and acts as a liaison between the HSSAA board and the school board.
Blackwell said he could not comment on the complaint. He did say part of the reason for the rule change "was to make sure (the HSSAA) don't have practices that are inequitable."
Contacted Wednesday night in Vancouver, Kokotailo said via e-mail "sadly this group at HSSAA has chosen to kick a Hornet's Nest by banning girls," referencing the name of the Oakville girls minor hockey program. "Not what I intended when I started this, but at least it is now not discriminatory."
Notre Dame high school coach Paul Leonard was surprised when informed of the ruling last Friday.
"One of the things is, who's making that decision? There wasn't a list of the individuals who made that decision," he said. "Coaches like myself who have been involved in high school hockey for a decade weren't asked. Our department heads weren't asked. That always gives you concern about the decision."
Blackwell said the HSSAA board is made up of volunteers consisting of teachers, administrators and physical education coordinators. Its executive council is listed on HSSAA website, www.hssaa.org, although its board members are not. Despite a request for the names of the board members, they were not provided.
Blackwell said the decision to ban rep players from the girls' high school league was made during the annual review of the HSSAA constitution.
"The board has to look at the rules through an equity lens, in terms of, are they equitable and inclusive," he said.
That would have left the HSSAA with two options regarding rep players: allowing rep players to play boys' hockey (Halton is one of only three leagues in Ontario that doesn't allow rep players to play for their high school), or banning rep players from girls hockey.
The HSSAA ruling states that "at this time, the boys programme was continuing to thrive under the current parameters" while the girls program "was declining in participation" under the current rules.
But the rep player ban might make the situation worse by shrinking the pool of available players. Halton had 21 girls' teams for the 2011/12 season, and has 17 this year, with five schools dropping out and King's Christian adding a team. Aldershot was one of the five schools that did not have a team this year.
"I could only estimate (the rule's) true overall impact," said Aldershot athletic director Sandra Shields in an e-mail. "This year we were unable to field a team as we did not have the numbers. It certainly will be one more factor in our being able to field all athletic teams but certainly not the only one."
The rule is not without its supporters. Jeff Gruber, the head of physical education at Oakville Trafalgar High School, says it will benefit the league and players in the long term.
"It will give other girls a chance to play," he said. "Traditionally, the girls league is littered with rep players and the girls' first priority is their rep team."
He understands that some schools initially might not be able to have teams but in the long term, there's no reason the league can't succeed.
"There will be some growing pains, no question," he said. "Some teams are going to drop out, but that's no different than basketball teams or volleyball teams that don't have enough players."
Mike Turczyniak, president of the Oakville Hornets, the largest girls hockey organization in Ontario, said the decision will have a major impact.
"It's more than likely going to kill the (high school) program," he said.
Although girls' hockey is growing, Turczyniak said there is still nowhere near the number of players as there is in boys hockey.
"It makes no sense number-wise. There's a big difference between boys and girls. You look at us and MOHA (Minor Oaks Hockey Association) and it's a four-to-one ratio."
The Hornets organization has approximately 250 players at the bantam and midget level, of which 120 are house league players. Dividing that number amongst 10 Oakville high schools would leave each school with the bare minimum for a team.
Nelson coach Marc Messier said coaches and players have worked hard to build a strong, competitive girls' league. He said the skill level in the league has increased significantly and he worries the elimination of rep players would set the league back.
"It would be like starting back at ground zero," he said. "Back to when girls hockey started in Halton."
Both Messier and Leonard raised concerns about the availability of goaltenders. Leonard only had one goalie, a rep player, try out for his team this year. If she was not available, "how do you function without a goalie?" he said. "It would be very difficult to ice a team."
"You can have 15 skaters, but if you don't have a goalie, do you run a program?" Messier asked. "You can't put a non-trained goalie in there. That becomes a safety issue."
Messier also raised the question, would rep ringette players be eligible to play high school hockey?
Notre Dame students Allie Gillies and Kristina Kocsis, both rep players, are trying to rally support to have the rule overturned. They have started an online petition that has gathered 269 signatures in five days, as well as a Twitter account (@HaltonLetUsPlay) to raise awareness of the issue.
They hope to have the decision reversed, and they are not alone.
"I'm just learning a bit about it," Bulthuis said Monday, "but I hope this, somehow, doesn't go though."
Every player interviewed said given the choice, they would play rep over high school hockey. So why is high school so important to them? And how does high school hockey aid in their development as a student and an athlete? The players explain in Part 2, which will be available online Saturday at insidehalton.com. —Follow Herb Garbutt on Twitter, @herbgarbutt

Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco Signing for
Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt
Admission: Free to the public
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges and American Book Award-winning cartoonist Joe Sacco present a searing portrait of an American underclass in crisis. Reporting from the coal fields of West Virginia, from Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, from undocumented farm worker colonies in California, and from Camden, New Jersey, the poorest city in the nation, Hedges and Sacco warn of a bleak near future — where cities and states fall easily into bankruptcy, neofeudalism reigns, and the nation's working and middle classes are decimated. A shocking report from the frontlines of poverty in America, Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt is a clarion call for reform.

The biggest interest in Norway's latest licensing round has been in the Barents Sea, which is a very attractive exploration province.
Norway's latest licensing round has sparked renewed interest in the country's mature offshore sector, as not only does some of the newly-released acreage up for grabs lie in frontier waters within the Arctic Circle but they are also located adjacent to Russia's own virginal exploration territory.
The country launched its 22nd licensing round earlier this year when the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate sought nominations from oil and gas companies looking to carry out exploration activity in previously untouched northern waters, both in the northern Norwegian Sea and the Barents Sea.
Encouraged by state-owned operator Statoil's large Skrugard (Block 7220/8-1) and Havis discoveries (which together contain reserves estimated at between 400-600 MMboe) and its resultant plans for an aggressive exploration campaign in the surrounding vicinity, a record level of interest was registered by 37 companies with 228 blocks nominated for inclusion.
Almost all the interest was in Norway's northernmost areas (181 nominations were for the Barents Sea alone), confirming that the upstream industry sees the Barents and the wider Norwegian offshore sector as an attractive prospective province in what is an increasingly competitive global exploration market.
To illustrate the trend, 43 companies nominated blocks in the country's 21st round, with 46 companies doing likewise in the 20th round. These last three licensing rounds compare very favorably with the preceding ones, when only 19 companies nominated blocks in the 19th licensing round, a paltry 14 in the 18th round and 16 in the 17th round.
The government's efforts to renew interest in its offshore sector by offering frontier acreage in the Barents Sea has clearly paid dividends, and this is reflected by Norway's Energy Ministry deciding to offer a total of 86 blocks and part-blocks for bid, including 72 in the Barents sector.
"More exploration is now taking place throughout the southern Barents Sea, and there is renewed optimism and expectation of discoveries. This licensing round will contribute to maintaining the activity level in this area and to clarifying the resource potential in the Barents Sea," said Sissel Eriksen, the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate's exploration director, in the NPD's official press release.
The deadline for bid submissions is Dec. 4, with awards to be made before mid-2013. The other 14 blocks and part-blocks are in the Norwegian Sea. But, it is the northernmost blocks in the Barents Sea that hold the most interest. Much of the reason for this is that the Arctic holds about 13% of the world's undiscovered conventional oil and 30% of its undiscovered natural gas, according to the US Geological Survey.
This was a significant driver behind the politically vital Norwegian-Russian Delimitation Agreement that was sealed between the countries in 2010 and came into force last year, settling a decades-long border row between the two and singlehandedly removing a huge obstacle that had previously stopped all initiatives aimed at opening up the area.
Now that this has been consigned to history, Norway is also hoping to prepare the way to open the southern part of the formerly disputed area up for potential licensing in the 23rd licensing round.
Several of the blocks in the 22nd round already lie close to the maritime border between Norway and Russia, with one -- Block 7231 -- located directly on the border.
In an official statement, Norway's Minister of Oil and Energy, Ola Borten Moe, said, "The Barents Sea is now a sea of opportunities. We have had very promising exploration results, and I now give the industry access to new areas connected with these discoveries."
He continued, "The 22nd licensing round is a new, important step in the work to facilitate long-term activity in Norway's most important industry. Together with improved recovery from existing fields, development of discoveries, and opening new areas, further exploration of open areas is one of the main elements in the government's work to achieve such a development and thus create further growth and secure jobs across the nation."
Russia has already positioned itself to be potentially involved in Norway's latest licensing round, with Lukoil having already prequalified last year for operations in Norwegian waters, and Russia's state-owned Rosneft lined up to co-operate with Statoil in certain blocks.
Blocks or part-blocks in the 22nd round include: 6706/2 and 3; 6707/1; 6705/7, 8, 9, and 10; 6704/12; 6604/8 and 9; 6605/1 and 9; 6606/7 and 8; 7423/12; 7424/10; 7425/10 and 11; 7317/4, 5, 6, 8, and 9; 7318/11 and 12; 7319/11 and 12; 7320/7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12; 7321/4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12; 7322/6; 7323/3 and 4; 7217/9; 7218/1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 12; 7219/1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, and 11; 7220/1, 2, and 3; 7221/1, 2 , 4, and 5; 7224/6; 7225/2 and 4; 7226/5 and 6; 7227/4 and 7; 7231/4, 5, and 6; 7127/5 and 6; 7128/4; 7130/4 and 7; 7017/6, 7, 8, and 9; and 7018/4.

Some time we may need to display a long url in our web-page. On that case, it will break the design as we can't display a string in multiple lines with there is no space between.
Yes obviously, a link can't have any space in between them. We can add <br> tag in between url, but the problem is while you are copying the URL, you still need to modify the copied content before using it in browser address bar. So I tried the following solution.
<wbr> tag
Write a helper method as follows:
#This method is used to split the longer urls into few lines.
#We added the tag <wbr> on a regular interval of a string.

College of Saint Benedict Literary Arts Institute
Serving the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University
College of Saint Benedict Literary Arts Institute serving the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University (LAI) is a natural outgrowth of Saint Ben's enduring commitment to creativity and the arts. Writing is central to the liberal arts, and creative writing in particular has flourished at the College since its founding. The Literary Arts Institute was established in 1997 to augment Saint Benedict's tradition of supporting writing in all its forms, to forge connections to publishing on a local and national level, and to promote interactions between students and writers. The institute serves both the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University.
Signature Programs
LAI brings nationally-recognized authors to the College through Writers Writing, promotes literary events, holds summer conferences such as Inside Books, supports publications through the Sister Mariella Gable Book Award, and encourages the artistry of fine letterpress in the Welle Book Arts Studio. On the strength of innovative partnerships with Graywolf Press and others, LAI is able to bring writers together with readers on campus, in the Twin Cities, and beyond.
These partnerships extend beyond the borders of Minnesota and the United States, as the Institute partners with the Office for Education Abroad to bring CSB/SJU students together with writers from their host countries through Writers at Home. LAI seeks to provide CSB/SJU students on the 20 semester long study abroad programs with such an opportunity to experience their host country's culture though literature.
Writer-in-residence Marie Howe on Krista Tippet's "On Being"
Poet Marie Howe, who was a writer-in-residence at the College of Saint Benedict for several days in March, was featured on Krista Tippett's "On Being" show, which aired April 28 on Minnesota Public Radio.
The program, "The Poetry of Ordinary Time with Marie Howe," was taped by producers of Tippett's show at CSB, for distribution on American Public media stations across the country.
Watch Tippet's conversation or listen to the program with the acclaimed poet in the Main Building in a room that was "old library" at CSB. It's an intimate 90 minutes of discussion about faith and relationships, the role of language in our contemporary lives, and ways to move forward.

I'm trying to feed my kids mostly raw, and I'm feeling a little lost sometimes. With a vegan menu I knew they had to have their legumes, lots of fruit, vegetables, and some whole grains, and they were covered. Now I'm confused. I don't know if they're getting enough nutrients. They don't drink a lot of green juice or green smoothies. Fruit smoothies are okay, but they need greens for iron. They eat a bit of salad, and some sprouts, but my 23 month old won't have very much of anything. It's so much easier to feed him a bowl of lentil soup than salad with sprouts, so I worry he's not getting enough...
Anyway, I thought I'd start this thread so I can have an idea of what other kids menus look like.
Here is what my 5 year old daughter had yesterday:
200ml carrot juice
100 ml apple celery juice (mostly apple)
1 banana
1 apple
5 strawberries
200 ml smoothie with banana, orange juice, raspberries, flax seeds, chia seeds, and a tsp of pea protein
1.5 cups of green salad with alfalfa sprouts, romaine, cherry tomatos, and ground cashew "cheese".
100 ml of almond milk with cacao powder
1 tsp cashew butter
That's it. My son had about the same variety, but in teeny tiny quantities.
Okay your turn ;)

You know, I'm glad this forum exists. I have felt unsung through the entire beta process for D3.
Diablo is the ONLY game i play. That's right ... I said it. I never played WOW or startcraft. I'm just not interested at all.
I've been playing since D1 and logged more hours into those games over the last 15 years than i care to admit. Yet, I never got the beta invite. WTF?!
And, then, I had to sit and watch people on the Battle.net forums talking about it and I couldn't even chime in or discuss it. because why?
"No characters found" at the top right corner of their forum web page..
Yet, I had registered D2 with Battle.net. Why weren't diablo players good enough for the battle.net forums?
Are there any others here that only play Diablo and sat by watching people celebrate;talking about the beta for the last few months waiting for an invite that never came?
One would think that Battle.net would go through their account holders looking for those who ONLY have a diablo 2 registered(not a wow or sc) and make sure that those people get the beta first. but, no ... nothing. What a D slap in the face.

Officials at Cedar Hill Cemetery said 75 bronze flower vases were stolen over the weekend, in addition to 30 others that were stolen within the last few weeks, meaning more than 100 vases that are attached to headstones are missing.
Police called it a disturbing crime and, of course, family members are heartbroken.
"It's sad. It hurts me you know why somebody has to come up here and steal from the dead. There's no words," said Wanda Stroud, whose goes to the cemetery to visit the grave of her brother, Tommy.
Police said they believe the thieves are selling the vases for scrap metal.
Stroud said she comes about once a month to decorate and put flowers in the vase on her brother's grave marker. She said that vase has been stolen before, so she can empathize with the families who were the victims of thieves over the weekend.
"They're supposed to be laid in peace, and that's disturbing them. That's wrong," family member Cortney Harmon said.
"I think it's reprehensible. These are people's relatives. You don't mess with family. You just don't," family member Sandy Garcia said.
Cemetery officials said each vase costs between $600 and $700. So, at face value, the thieves made off with more than $80,000 of goods. But police said they believe the thieves are selling them for far less than that.
Anne Arundel County police said state law has requirements for dealers buying these items for scrap.

Police: Hit-and-run driver strikes, kills officer
STOCKBRIDGE, Ga. (AP) — Police are urging a suspected hit-and-run driver to surrender after they say he struck and killed an officer who was helping a stranded motorist south of Atlanta.
Henry County police Sgt. Joey Smith said the officer was helping the driver on North Henry Boulevard when an Ford F-250 pickup truck slammed into him around 6:40 p.m. Monday.
Authorities say the truck struck the officer and a second motorist who had stopped to help, then kept going east toward Rockdale County.
Georgia State Patrol officers said the truck's front, left side is believed to be damaged and the side door mirror is missing.
Smith told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (http://bit.ly/T0NpKy) that both victims were taken to Atlanta Medical Center with serious injuries, but the officer did not survive. His name wasn't immediately released.

Impact has the ability to provide us the workforce we need and always responds to our needs in a quick and professional manner. The Impact workforce works well and supports our core workforce very professionally. In fact the only real way to tell the difference between an Hanil E Hwa employee and an Impact employee is by the name on their paycheck.
Joining the team at Impact Outsourcing Solutions has been one of the best decisions that I have made as a small business owner. I now have more time to focus on what my agency offers while still providing my employees with a source and contact of knowledge and expertise with employment and payroll matters. Impact also provides additional avenues of savings, discounts, and benefits. It has been a relief knowing that all the requirements and responsibilities of having employees have been taken off of me and are now taken care of by Impact! Again I must say, one of my BEST decisions!
Impact Outsourcing has provided HR and Payroll services to Expert Computers for more than 5 years. While our employees enjoy the benefits of having the partnership with Impact, I enjoy an overall cost savings and reduction of liabilities. The managers and staff at Impact Outsourcing are always there for us and eager to help our business be more successful. To me this is the foundation for a great partnership. I look forward to the future of our relationship because I know that Impact always has my best interest in mind as they continue to add and improve current services.

Impact has made our lives so much easier in balancing the accounts each month, having the correct information for us and never saying I don't know or no we can't do that. They are so prompt to answer our questions and if they don't know the answer they will find someone who does know. They are always so willing to come into the office to help if any problems we may have and have made our transition so easy and complete. I would recommend Impact Outsourcing Solutions to anyone who wants to work with personable, well informed, hardworking people who care that your company is happy and pleased with their job.
I worked with Impact during a vigorous PEO implementation and I must say the Impact team is really great and really have it together and going on. SERIOUSLY! And I do not say that about everyone. They are very professional, organized, responsive...just great!"

This Week's Sports Illustrated: Jabari Parker
Posted: May 16, 2012 | Author: sigroup | Filed under: Albert Chen, Chris Ballard, Joe Sheehan, Michael Farber, Phil Taylor, Sports Illustrated Cover, Weekly Issue, Weekly Press Release | Tags: Baseball Economics, Eric Hosmer, Jabari Parker, John Tortorella, Kansas City Royals, London Olympic Games, New York Rangers, San Antonio Spurs, Tim Duncan | Comments OffThe Biggest High School Basketball Star Since LeBron James Must Balance Sports and Faith
An Exclusive Look at Tim Duncan, the Most Successful Star of His Generation
Eric Hosmer Is Front and Center in the World of Baseball's New Economics
The Irritable John Tortorella Has Led the Rangers to Their First Conference Finals in 15 Years
The Success or Failure of the London Olympics Falls on One Man
(NEW YORK – May 16, 2012) – Jabari Parker, a junior at Simeon Career Academy in Chicago, is the best high school basketball player since LeBron James, but there's something more important to him than hoops stardom: his faith. Parker—who was the 2011 USA Basketball athlete of the year and is being recruited by all the top college programs including Kentucky, Kansas and Duke—is a devout Mormon. After his freshman year in college, when top players will head to the NBA draft, Jabari will have to decide whether he will declare for the draft or—like thousands of other Mormon men who turn 19—embark on a two-year mission to spread the faith in the U.S. or a foreign country.
Parker appears on the cover of the May 21, 2012, issue of Sports Illustrated, on newsstands now. Parker is the first high school athlete on the cover since Bryce Harper appeared on the June 8, 2009 cover.
Jabari wakes up each morning at five and says a prayer, and three days a week, he is at Bible study by 5:30. Parker also accompanies a Bishop of his church on visits to the sick, the poor and the elderly—an assignment designed to teach young men the importance of service and self-sacrifice. Parker tells contributing writer Jeff Benedict, "I realize why I'm in the position I'm in right now. It's not because of me. It's because of God."
He knows his decision will be difficult. His brother Christian, who has already served a mission, has told Jabari that it was the best thing he's ever done. Jabari says, "When he came home from his mission, we talked a lot about it. I want to go. But I have doubts. The NBA is the biggest dream of basketball players, and I'm not different."
On the Tablet: Podcast with Richard Deitsch and Jeff Benedict and a video montage of Jabari Parker.
21 SHADES OF GRAY – CHRIS BALLARD (@SI_ChrisBallard)
Tim Duncan is the most successful player of his generation, maybe even its best. In the 15 years since Duncan was drafted, no other team in the four major pro sports has had a better winning percentage than the Spurs. Now Duncan is the foundation of yet another Spurs team that could win it all. So why haven't the masses fallen for him? Senior writer Chris Ballard breaks down the 21 reasons why Duncan, compared with his peers, remains practically anonymous (page 36).
Duncan said, "Winning should be the only thing that matters. I can't manipulate how people see me. I could be more accessible and be the darling of everybody. I could open up my life and get more endorsements and be out there and be a fan favorite. But why would that help?"
George Brett is the greatest baseball player to play for the Kansas City and he thinks the world of the Royals young first baseman Eric Hosmer. Brett said, "These kids in our farm system, most of them weren't born when I was playing…. But if they make a big splash, then suddenly they are getting compared to me. Hos is getting the comparisons now, but let me tell you, he's the real deal. And hopefully he'll be in Kansas City for the next 20 years."
If the Royals are going to keep Hosmer in their organization, they will have to persuade him to sign a contract extension. Many teams have begun to sign their young talent to long-term deals before they hit the free-agent market. It's a strategy that has worked for a number of mid-market teams including Tampa and Cincinnati (page 44).
Hosmer's agent, Scott Boras, doesn't love this new world. He said, "Evaluating and understanding the value of that kind of player and talent, that's a process that takes years. Whether it's a Madison Bumgarner or a Matt Moore or any of those other deals, I find those contracts to be unconscionable."
The postgame press conferences for New York Rangers coach John Tortorella are so quick that they have become one of the most popular topics of conversation during the 2012 NHL playoffs. Hockey networks in the U.S. and Canada have super imposed a stopwatch on the screen to see how long they will last. This shouldn't diminish the fact that Tortorella has led his team to its first conference finals in 15 years. He has molded them to fit his image; the Rangers are relentless, driven and confrontational (page 52).
On the Tablet: A look at John Tortorella's best press conference moments.
Sebastian Coe won gold medals in the 1,500 meters at the 1980 and '84 Olympics, but his biggest challenge is about to take place. As the driving force behind the London Games, Coe has assured everyone that this summer's Games will be a complete hit. Coe became chairman of the London Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG) in early 2004, just 18 months before the International Olympic Committee (IOC) made its decision on a host city for 2012. Coe's efforts in that short time are what led to London's receiving the bid and many believe he is the perfect fit for this tough task (page 56).
Jonathan Edwards, who heads LOCOG athletes' committee, said, "He believes that if you have the right attitude, you'll succeed. If the Games go well, it's Seb. It the Games don't go well, it's Seb. No on will point the finger at the prime minister or Boris Johnson [London Mayor]. Seb himself wouldn't say he set the world on fire as a politician, but as a sports politician he's been a real leader."

Which athlete from another sport could play in the NBA today?
Calvin Johnson, Lions WR 16%
Jimmy Graham, Saints TE 10%
Terrell Owens, Free-Agent WR 7%
Antonio Gates, Chargers TE 7%
Cam Newtwon, Panthers QB 6%
[Based on 146 NBA players who responded to SI's survey]
FAST FACTS: Graham, Gates and Tony Gonzalez (who was sixth, with 5%) played D-I basketball. Graham averaged 4.2 points at Miami, Gates 16.5 at Eastern Michigan and Kent State (where he was an honorable mention All-America in 2003), and Gonzalez 6.4 at Cal. . . . Of the 39 athletes named, 29 play pro football—19 as receivers or tight ends. . . . Usain Bolt (3%) received the most votes for a nonfootball player. . . . In a similar poll on Facebook, 56% of SI readers named Johnson.
SCORECARD: VOICES FROM HEAVEN – STEVE RUSHIN (@SteveRushin)
When Red Sox public-address announcer Carl Beane died last week, at 59, the team honored him not with a moment of silence but with three hours of it. For one game there were no introductions. Every hitter strode to home plate, bat in hand, in silent eloquence (page 15).
The baseball P.A. announcer is a voice from the heavens, but we seldom know the names and almost never know the faces of these disembodied voices. These voices eventually became a piece of a team's persona. Bob Sheppard's run at Yankee Stadium echoed almost the entire history of the profession. At Wrigley Field, Pat Piper was as familiar as the ivy. In Philadelphia, Dan Baker has manned the microphone for 40 years. Carl Beane's passing reminds us of the soothing sounds of subtlety.
POINT AFTER: THIS ACT IS A FLOP– PHIL TAYLOR (@SI_PhilTaylor)
The NBA is at the height of the playoffs, but senior writer Phil Taylor says that flopping during games could undermine the terrific athleticism. He would like players to stop taking dives and he isn't alone. ESPN NBA analyst Jeff Van Gundy said during the Heat-Knicks series, "It just ruins the game. I can't believe with all the brilliance we have in the NBA office that we can't find a way to eliminate this part of the game." (page 68).

Pruning the forum database.
An error occurred: (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/fonts//libtype1.so(EE) Failed to load module "type1" (loader failed, 7)Try to change some parameters
Thank you for the replyOK, setting the display with a greater resolution in PCC allows me to choose a greater resolution from "Configure your desktop".Only, this setting is not permanent if set as normal user (with root it works, instead). Every time I log in i have the desktop set to 1024x768 and have to open the "Configure your desktop" window every time. As i open the Display section on the "size" window PCLOS automatically adjust the resolution to the correct settings (before i do anything, the resolution is already set to a greater value).Is there a way to fix this and make my settings become persistent?

Help Available for Veterans Looking for JobsGetting a job after leaving the service can be a battle in itselfANCHORAGE - For many veterans, scoring a job after leaving the military is a battle in itself. "Not only have they not done a resume, they haven't done an interview, and so that can be an interesting experience because you're trying to translate what you did in the military to someone who may not have any idea what you did," said Aaron Gustafson, Veterans' Program Coordinator with the Department of Labor. Some veterans think that having extensive experience will be enough. But for Chris McMath, who served for 9 years as a human resources specialist and was deployed overseas twice, it took nearly a year. "It's frustrating -- you're just sitting around waiting for somebody to at least give you a shot, or at least give you and interview and talk to you and see where you're at," said McMath, who is now employed in his field. The Department of Labor has staff trying to bridge the gap between veterans and employers: "They go out to talk to the employers and really advertise the veterans and say all the different reasons to hire veterans the benefits that they bring," said Gustafson. Translating military experience into a language that a civilian employer can understand is one of the biggest challenges, but Gustafson says there's help available if veterans need it. The best place to find help is at http://jobs.alaska.gov/veterans/vetreps.htm. You have indicated this comment should be removed.said on Wednesday, Nov 14 at 3:31 PM yeah that looks so inviting...probably need to be a little more personal and make appts at the VA and then you can present your shtick of job offers... this just reminds them of the food line...nice...
