December 15, 2012, KENT (ISN) – The Spokane Chiefs defeated the Seattle Thunderbirds 7-6 in a shootout Friday night at Veterans Memorial Arena in Spokane. The T-Birds had a 6-3 lead at the midway point of the third period but were not able to hold the lead.
Spokane scored three goals in 4:26 late in the third to send the game to overtime.
In the shootout Spokane elected to shoot first. The first shooter was Mitch Holmberg and heat beat Seattle goalie Brandon Glover with a backhand shot. Connor Sanvido was Seattle first shooter and heat beat Spokane goalie Garret Hughson low to tie the shootout.
Todd Fiddler was the second shooter for Spokane and he was denied by Glover. Seth Swenson was the second shooter for Seattle and he was stopped by Hughson.
Brenden Kichton was the third Spokane shooter and he was able to beat Glover for a goal. Roberts Lipsbergs had a chance to tie the shootout and send it to sudden death, but his move at the left post was stopped by Hughson to get Spokane the win.
Spokane (23-8-1-0) took a 1-0 lead at 3:35 of the first period when Dylan Walchuk scored. Holmberg and Marek Kalus had the assists.
Seattle (16-15-1-1) tied the game 1-1 at 11:39 of the first on five-on-three power-play goal. Connor Honey moved the puck to Shea Theodore at the right point. Theodore stickhandled into the high slot and then slid the puck over to Sanvido near the bottom of the left circle. Sanvido snapped the puck high past Spokane goalie Eric Williams who was lunging across the crease to make the save. It was Sanvido's 10th goal of the season.
The T-Birds converted 38 seconds after their first goal, in a similar fashion as the first, to take a 2-1 lead. Brendan Rouse got the puck to Roberts Lipsbergs in the high slot. Lipsbergs sent the puck to Luke Lockhart in the left circle. Lockhart beat Williams high for his 13th goal of the year.
The Chiefs outshot the T-Birds 15-9 in the first period.
The T-Birds started the second period down a man due to a penalty late in the first period. Luke Lockhart was able to score a shorthanded goal 49 seconds into the period to extend the lead to 3-1. Jerret Smith rimmed the puck from behind the Seattle net around the boards. The puck got past a Chiefs defenseman at the left point. Lockhart skated to the puck and came in on a breakaway moving right to left. Lockhart dragged the puck across the low slot and beat Williams with a backhand shot for his second goal of the night.
Spokane cut Seattle's lead to one goal when Riley Whittingham scored at 1:57 of the second. Kalus and Carter Proft were credited with the assists.
Roberts Lipsbergs scored at 11:16 of the second to give the T-Birds the two-goal lead back. Alexander Delnov took a shot from the high slot that Williams kicked to Lipsbergs to the left of the goal on the goal line. Lipsbergs whipped the puck past Williams high for his team leading 17th goal of the season. Honey had the second assist on the goal.
Seattle extended the lead to 5-2 on some nice hustle from Riley Sheen. Theodore sent the puck down the right wall into the Spokane zone. Sheen outraced a Spokane defenseman to get the puck and create a two-on-one with Justin Hickman. Sheen skated through the right circle and then crossed the puck to Hickman. Hickman blasted the pass past Williams who was sliding across the crease to try and make the save.
Spokane led 25-18 in shots after two periods by outshooting the T-Birds 10-9 in the second period.
Spokane replaced Williams with Garret Hughson to start the third period. Williams stopped 13 of 18 shots in 40 minutes of action.
Honey extended the T-Birds lead to 6-2 1:27 into third period just after a power play ended. Delnov took a shot from the high slot that Hughson stopped. The puck rebounded to Honey coming through the slot. Honey turned and whipped the puck past Hughson for his 10th goal of the season. Sheen had the second assist on the goal.
Holmberg scored a five-on-three power-play goal at 8:09 of the third to get the Chiefs third goal. Brenden Kichton and Reid Gow had the assists.
Holmberg struck again on the power play, at 14:31 of the third, to cut the T-Birds lead to two goals. Kichton and Gow had the assists.
Holmberg completed the hat trick at 17:09 of the third to get the Chiefs within one goal. Kichton and Kalus had the assists.
Spokane pulled Hughson and it paid off as Mike Aviani scored at 19:05 of the third to tie the game 6-6. Kichton and Holmberg were credited with the assists.
Spokane outshot Seattle 19-2 in the third period.
Both teams had several scoring chances in overtime but the goalie for both teams stood tall and kept the game tied. Seattle outshot Spokane 5-2 in overtime.
Spokane outshot Seattle 46-25 in the game.
Glover made 40 saves on 46 shots and his record is now 15-12-1-1.
Hughson stopped six of seven shots and his record is now 4-1-0-0.

Henry Sandham
Canadian, 1842–1910
Portrait of Mr. A.W. Ogilvie, 1888
oil on canvas
76.5 x 61 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Acquired with the assistance of Mr. and Mrs. G. Hugh A. Swan in memory of his grandmother, Mrs. Hugh Phillips
Painting, Canadian Historical (1800-1910)
Alexander Walker Ogilvie was a leading member of Montreal's elite Anglophone community. Before the creation of the grain pools in 1920, all grain was purchased by private companies, and Ogilvie had established himself as a successful flour miller. Ogilvie Mills opened a branch in Winnipeg in 1895. Henry Sandham was likely introduced to Ogilvie through the photographer William Notman. Notman worked briefly in the Ogilvie milling business before establishing a photography studio in Montreal, where Sandham was employed in the 1860s and 1870s. At the time this portrait was painted, Ogilvie was a Conservative Senator, appointed by Prime Minister John A. Macdonald. A year later, Ogilvie and several other supporters commissioned Sandham to paint the official portrait of Macdonald, displayed today in the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa.

Austin Dillon to skip Nationwide qualifying for Cup practice
CHARLOTTE, N.C.—Nationwide Series points leader Austin Dillon plans to start the race Saturday at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course from the rear of the field, as he will miss qualifying Saturday morning while practicing a Sprint Cup car in Michigan.
Dillon, who is replacing injured Tony Stewart in the Stewart-Haas Racing No. 14 car at Michigan International Speedway, plans to participate in as much Cup practice as possible Saturday morning with sessions scheduled for 8:30-9:25 a.m. ET, as well as 11-11:55 a.m.
MORE: Dillon the substitute driver | Power rankings | Stewart's recovery
Qualifying for the Nationwide Children's Hospital 200 at Mid-Ohio is slated for 9:30 a.m. Saturday, with the race scheduled for 2:30 p.m.
Dillon said Tuesday he was unsure who would qualify his Richard Childress Racing car for the Nationwide race. NASCAR rules require that a driver must start from the rear if there is a driver change from qualifying to the race.
"It's a little bit bummer for our guys—our Nationwide team (guys), they want to qualify," Dillon said Tuesday during an appearance where his Eldora-winning truck was displayed at the NASCAR Hall of Fame.
"They understand the situation that we are in and the opportunity that is there. We've all embraced that we can win from starting last at a road course. We now have to take that as a challenge and take it head-on."
Because Mid-Ohio is new to the Nationwide schedule, the teams will get 5.5 hours of practice Thursday, plenty of time for Dillon to get used to the car and the course, where he's already tested this year.
The tentative plan is to have Max Papis, who is already driving the Richard Childress Racing No. 33 Nationwide car, to shake down Dillon's car Friday while Dillon is in Michigan. Dillon has a three-point lead on Sam Hornish Jr., a five-point lead on Regan Smith, a 12-point lead on Elliott Sadler and an 18-point lead on Brian Vickers with 12 races left in the Nationwide season.
SHR only named Dillon as a replacement for this weekend so far, but Stewart is expected to be out for several weeks to recover from two surgeries to repair a broken right tibia and fibula suffered in a sprint-car racing crash Aug. 5 at Southern Iowa Speedway.
The only other time when the Nationwide and Cup teams are not at the same track is Sept. 20-21, when Cup is in New Hampshire and Nationwide is in Kentucky. Dillon hopes that he can drive the No. 14 car as long as SHR wants him.
"Keeping both sides happy is big," said Dillon, who hopes to be a full-time Cup driver in 2014 at RCR.
"My guys have plenty confidence to know I can do double duty each weekend. We'll take it one week at a time. "I'd love to announce that we are going to do them all. … Things that happen like this, you have to take advantage of them and use the opportunity that is there."

This site will give you everything you need to know about self defence.
Self defence is really quite simple but there are some parts of the law which will cause you some surprise.
We will set out below in some detail the laws relating to specific situations but, in a nutshell, you are entitled to use reasonable force to protect yourself or another.
You are also permitted to use reasonable force to protect your property but, in many cases involving property, the law of self defence does not allow you to cause any injury or to strike any person. In other words, there is a clear distinction between defending yourself or another personally and defending property, however valuable.
Sections 48 to 62 of the Crimes Act 1961 are the relevant sections and we set out the full texts of those sections below with some short commentary under each of the sections.
Get to understand the principles well because they are all you need to know about the law of self defence.
Remember, reasonable force is the key provided you do not act out of revenge and provided you do not actually strike someone if you are protecting your property.
Let us turn to each of the sections of the Crimes Act 1961.
48. "Self defence and defence of another - Every one is justified in using, in the defence of himself or another, such force as, in the circumstances as he believes them to be, it is reasonable to use."
The above Section 48 is the important section of the Crimes Act 1961 which deals with self defence. If a person is charged with assault or manslaughter or murder and wishes to raise the defence of self defence then at least three questions are usually asked:-
1. Did the person use force for the purpose of defending himself or herself?
2. What were the overall circumstances as that person believed them to be?
3. Was the force used reasonable?
Every case is judged on its own facts.
However, the Court will look at a numbe

On the first day of class, retired Sgt. 1st Class Ricky Lobo likes to show his students a picture from his drill sergeant days.
It's not so much to intimidate them, but more a thing of pride.
"Being a drill sergeant was the highlight of my military career," Lobo said. "Being able to train young Americans to become soldiers, that's such an honor."
Lobo spent the last 10 years of his military career as an instructor, whether it was training new privates, drill sergeants or non-commissioned officers. With that experience as an instructor, it's no surprise that he now feels at home in a high school classroom.
Earning his wings
Lobo was born and raised in New York City. When he turned 18, his family didn't have money to send him to college.
He had just graduated from high school and was working part time at a supermarket when he saw a commercial for the Army during the Army-Navy football game.
"I called the recruiter because they could pay you to go to college," Lobo said. "The game was on a Saturday, and that Monday, a recruiter was knocking on my door. Within two weeks, I was in the Army."
After basic training at Fort Dix, N.J., he was shipped to Fort McClellan, Ala. for his advanced individual training.
A nuclear/chemical/biological operations specialist, his first duty assignment was a year-long tour in Korea.
When he returned to the U.S., he was initially sent to Fort Irwin, Calif., but he had the option to have his orders changed. One of his options -- Fort Campbell, Ky. -- stuck out because it was home of the storied 101st Airborne Division.
He got his wish, and says it was an awesome experience earning his wings and completing the different training maneuvers with the 101st. The training culminated in a 12-mile march in full gear, which Lobo finished in two hours.
In the 'sand box'
In August 1990, Iraqi forces led by Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait. Toward the end of August, it was evident that the 101st Airborne would be deployed to help coalition forces in the Middle East.
Lobo was promoted Sept. 1 from specialist to sergeant, and on Sept. 10, he was deployed.
His platoon was stationed outside King Fahd Air Base, Saudi Arabia, in a city made up of bedouin tents.
"There was no air conditioning, nothing of that nature. It was very hot -- 115 in the shade. You drank a lot of water," Lobo said. "We were there waiting for the rest of the divisions to join us, which eventually they did. Your life was every day doing training."
Lobo was part of a decontamination unit, whose primary mission was to decontaminate in the event of a nuclear, biological or chemical attack and train other units what to do.
His unit also had to set up showers in the "sand box" for the entire brigade.
"You're away from your family and friends. Back then there was no Internet or cell phones, texting or Skype; no such luxuries. We received letters through snail mail and packages from loved ones," Lobo said. "Being away from home was difficult. My first born child was born while I was over there. "It sucked, but you get used to it. You're there doing your mission. You're there for a reason."
That reason became more clear one evening in January 1991.
He and other soldiers in the camp heard jets flying over -- one after another, taking off from King Fahd Air Base.
They turned on the Armed Forces radio network, where they heard a recording from President George Bush announcing the launch of Operation Desert Storm.
"From that day forward, it was the most harrowing experience that any one could ask for," Lobo said.
Lobo recalls watching planes fly overhead from the bunker and explosions shaking the ground. There was a constant fear that biological weapons would be used.
Ground combat operations lasted only 100 hours, and the mission ended without Lobo's unit having to engage the enemy.
Finding his calling
After his deployment to Iraq, he spent several years stationed in Germany, Fort Hood, and Korea.
In 1998, he was sent to Fort Leonard Wood, Mo., to begin what he called the "apex" of his career.
He was assigned to be an instructor at the U.S. Army Chemical School, a state-of-the art training facility where they actually worked with live nerve agents and live blister agents.
Around February or March 2000, he received a puzzling telegram: It ordered him to report in July to Fort Leonard Wood, where he was already stationed.
It turned out the Army selected him to attend the U.S. Army Drill sergeant academy there.
"Ask any soldier, and they would love to be a drill sergeant. They are the ultimate role model for soldiers," Lobo said. "It was an honor. It was the ultimate honor."
But in order to become a drill sergeant, first you have to go through training.
It was like basic training all over again.
"When you go to drill sergeant school, it's like being a brat in the Army. Everything that a private does in basic training, we did, plus the classroom training. It was very challenging, very demanding."
For two years, he served as a drill sergeant.
"This is where I found my calling. That was the highlight of my military career. I got to mentor high school students and young adults that came into the Army to serve their country."
A typical day started with waking up at 3:30 or 4:30 a.m. so that he could be at work by 5 a.m. and wake up the recruits at 5:30. After a day of training, it was lights out for the privates at 9 p.m.
He enjoyed his work, but still had some concerns about how drill sergeants were being trained, so he inquired about what it would take to be a drill sergeant leader.
After a lengthy interview process, he was selected to become a drill sergeant leader.
But first, there was more training.
"It was like going through basic training three times, but it's OK. When you graduate, you get a certificate to be a drill sergeant leader. That was an honor, and it was an awesome experience."
Lobo spent 18 months as a drill sergeant leader before he was sent back to Germany.
This was supposed to be just a stop on the way to Iraq, but when he arrived in Frankfurt, his plans were changed.
Two first sergeants were screening the non-commissioned officers, and when they saw that Lobo was not only a drill sergeant, but a drill sergeant leader, they got on the phone right away with their superiors.
Just like that, Lobo's orders were changed, and instead of shipping out to Iraq, he was reassigned as an instructor at the non-commissioned officer academy in Germany.
From combat to classroom
Even though he made a career out of the military, Lobo initially joined the Army to pay for college, so after retirement, he took advantage of the GI Bill and went back to school, where he studied to become a teacher.
"I never wanted to be a teacher. I didn't plan to be a teacher, but I was an instructor for the chemical school, a drill sergeant, a drill sergeant leader, NCO academy senior instructor. The last 10 years of my military years I was an instructor in some way, shape or form. That got me interested in teaching."
In 2009, he and his wife -- who is still active duty Army -- were sent to Pennsylvania. She works as an Army dentist at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle.
He has been looking for a teaching job and recently has been serving as a long-term substitute at Chambersburg Area Senior High School.
His passion is working with high school students and young adults.
"I have bonded with my students. They probably say I'm crazy, but that's how I am," Lobo said. "They say I'm loud. I probably got louder because of the military."
There are other ways his military experience has shaped his teaching.
"A lot of my military type of teaching I have incorporated in the classroom and used to my advantage. I think it helps," Lobo said. "I'm here for my students. I try to be good to them and show them there is a world out there after high school and they have to be prepared for it."

Brough snatches draw for Giants
Huddersfield captain Danny Brough kicked a last-minute drop goal to snatch a draw against Warrington and end his side's 10-match losing run at the hands of the Wolves.
In a thrilling second half at the Halliwell Jones Stadium, Warrington fought back from 23-6 down to edge in front with the aid of two tries in four minutes from prop Ben Harrison.
It looked to be enough to snare both points but Brough had the final say, landing his second drop goal of the game to tie the scores at 24-24 and keep alive his side's hopes of retaining the Super League leaders shield.
Danny Brough's late goal secured a draw for Huddersfield against Warrington
The point lifts the Wolves into third place in the table, just three points behind leaders St Helens, who face a tricky test at Leeds on Friday night.
However, there was some justice for Brough, whose eight points enabled him to climb into eighth place in the all-time Super League list, and hooker Shaun Lunt, who scored one try and created two others, with neither men deserving to be on the losing side.
Warrington started and finished the match at the Halliwell Jones Stadium strongly but the visitors were the better side for long periods in between.
With veteran Michael Monaghan causing all sorts of trouble with his mazy runs from dummy half, Warrington dominated the opening exchanges but only had stand-off Gareth O'Brien's 18th-minute try to show for their efforts.
That followed a sustained spell of pressure on the visitors' line and O'Brien's conversion made it 6-0.
Starved of the ball in the first quarter, Huddersfield were forced to rely on the boot of Brough to get them out of trouble but the game turned on a remarkable eight-minute spell in which they scored three converted tries.
The first came in fortuitous fashion, loose forward Chris Bailey getting a touch to the ball after Brough's grubber kick rebounded off Monaghan.
It gave the Giants just the encouragement they needed and the platform for Lunt to demonstrate his devastating threat near the tryline.
First the former England number nine sent second rower Ukuma Ta'ai charging over for a try, and then forced his way over himself from dummy half.
Brough kicked all three conversions and slotted over a drop goal on the stroke of half-time to put his side three scores in front at 19-6 and leapfrog former dual-international Iestyn Harris in the Super League scoring chart.
Lunt struck again three minutes into the second half to keep his side firmly in the driving seat.
He collected Richie Myler's grubber kick two metres from his own line and beat three defenders before sending left winger Jodie Broughton on an 80-metre run for a spectacular try.
Brough was off target for the first time with the goalkick and it went on to prove crucial, as did the substitution of Lunt on 52 minutes.
Huddersfield lacked direction in the absence of their inspirational hooker and Warrington seized their opportunity.
Atkins pounced on O'Brien's slide-rule kick for the Wolves' second try and then it was Harrison's turn to take centre stage.
He barged his way past three defenders to touch down on 61 minutes and four minutes later produced a similar effort, although it took several replays before the video referee decided he had reached the tryline.
O'Brien took his goal tally to four to edge his side back in front and winger Rhys Evans almost clinched the win when he flew over at the corner six minutes from the end, only to lose the ball and knock himself unconscious in the process.
It set up a tense finish, with Huddersfield's England centre Leroy Cudjoe intercepting a Monaghan pass to set up the position for Brough to land his second drop goal of the game.

Cochabamba Postscript: Lessons, Reflections, and the Road to Cancun
I'm on the plane back to the United States, flying at 29,000 feet over the Amazon. A green carpet of trees, only interrupted by winding veins of brown rivers, stretches to the horizon. From time to time, a small cluster of buildings appears on the side of a river. Later, geometric patterns interrupt the expanse of the forest in areas where trees have been cut. In their place are roads, but few buildings and no crops or livestock. Suddenly, these clearings disappear and only forest and clouds are visible again. The forest is immensely beautiful, and just seeing it there gives me hope—even knowing the many challenges the forest and its people face. It's hard to look at something so huge, a system that's complex beyond human comprehension, and know that many think it won't exist in 100 years. The forest and its people may well become victims of the greed and myopia of those who run today's world.
The World People's Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth (CMPCC, for its Spanish acronym) ended on Thursday in Cochabamba and every airport I've stopped in (more than a few now) has been filled with people heading home with new energy, new direction, and excitement to get back to work. But before the movement moves on I want to share some last reflections that we'll be taking forward.
The Meaning of Cochabamba
When I asked Colin Rajah of the National Network for Immigrant and Refugee Rights what he thought the significance of the CMPCC was, he replied, "Cochabamba changed the game. The U.S. will push what it's going to push, but now there is a new proposal on the table. It's a counter balance." This new proposal, brought together by social movements from around the world and anchored by Bolivian and South American social movements, will exist as a synthesis and a road map for both climate negotiations and the movement itself. The conference successfully wove together the strengths and experiences of many movements; at times differences emerged (which I'll talk about more below), but overall the conference was remarkable for the level of agreement expressed.
What was this agreement? The content of the proposals is too extensive to list here (click for Spanish text or partial English translations), but it was remarkable for being intersectional, based on a structural analysis, rooted in the experiences of communities on the ground, and truly democratic. The outcome makes clear that solutions to climate change won't come from the back room or the board room, but instead from real people making decisions about their future.
The question now is: Will it have legs? As an organizer from Vía Campesina Mexico pointed out in one of the opening sessions of the conference, what is possible in Cancún (where the next UN Conference of Parties will meet to try to negotiate a global climate policy) will depend on what is developed internationally prior to November. He also pointed out that the ability to resist the imposition of a bad deal rests on the ability to advance unified counter demands. While the proposals coming out of Cochabamba are comprehensive enough to be a map for the climate justice movement in the coming months, more work is needed—and already happening—to make sure that enough of us are working together.
Markets, Oppressed Communities, and the Right to Development
Even in Cochabamba, there were places where the inside strategies of governments and the outside strategies of social movements diverged. A particular flash point for debate was on the issue of REDD (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation). REDD is a proposal to include the conservation of forests in the global mechanisms developed to fight climate change. Supporters say it would give a monetary value to forests, which today only have value when they are cut down. This would then slow deforestation, provide funds to forest communities, and address the contribution of deforestation to climate change. Opponents say that REDD is just a scheme to commidify the world's forests in a carbon market—a scheme for creating profits rather than conserving forests. They also contend that in existing REDD projects, indigenous people have been displaced from the forests or coerced into signing away their land, and that forests have been razed and replaced with plantations (which are considered forests under REDD).
At one workshop I attended, representatives from indigenous communities and the government in Bolivia described the benefits of their REDD pilot project. The crowd in attendance was skeptical but reserved. The working group on forests was another story: Indigenous organizers and leaders from the Indigenous Environmental Network worked very hard to include a condemnation of REDD in the working group text and ran into head-on opposition from Bolivian government representatives and some Southern indigenous leaders in the group.
The REDD debate points to a larger dynamic at work in climate policy. Forest communities, and especially indigenous communities, have been marginalized and impoverished by decades of neoliberal policy, not to mention centuries of colonialism. Now REDD appears, and communities have to decide whether they want to make a deal with the devil. If they refuse, then conditions stay the same—they are still poor and their forests are still under attack. Otherwise, they decide that by accepting they can work the program to their advantage, kind of like a climate community benefits agreement. (This scenario assumes that the community is giving free, prior, informed consent, which is almost never true. In most cases, these projects, like many rural development projects in the South, are forced on communities by their national governments.)
The lesson here is that we can't forget that communities have issues that are already extremely dire, and we want to create conditions that don't force them to choose between short-term and long-term survival. Whether we call it the right to development, el vivir bien, the just transition, or an E-squared approach (addressing ecology and economy), it's up to us to build a movement in which people's ecological and economic needs aren't squaring off against one another.
The Politically Possible vs. the Materially Necessary
Governments and social movements also disagreed about whether carbon markets have a place in their ongoing strategies. Social movements generally opposed them. The governments that were present opposed carbon markets in concept, but given the current context of negotiations, they supported the continuation of the Kyoto Protocol as a tactical demand.
This tactical position made some participants uncomfortable. If neoliberal economic policies and unchecked capitalism are causing climate chaos, how can we take a position in favor of Kyoto—which not only included a carbon market but has also driven destructive projects in the South? The discomfort felt by leaders of social movements is historically rooted. For years, well-funded NGOs have played the politics of the possible, keeping social movements on the outside and giving increased support to ineffective or damaging corporate-led policy. Was the position taken by the Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas (ALBA, for its Spanish acronym) in Cochabamba just the same thing?
My answer would be "no," and here's why: We need to keep an eye on both what's politically possible and what's materially necessary—and then struggle to make more of what is necessary possible while making false solutions (like carbon markets) politically impossible. In this political moment, we need to take stock of where our forces and our allies are and figure out the best way to play our hand. Given the state of affairs today, that definitely includes: (1) Influencing and gaining support from a much bigger segment of the population—particularly in communities that are already or will be among the first and worst impacted by climate change, and (2) impeding the U.S. government's ability to screw up this global process. I think the ALBA governments are attempting to do the latter.
Additionally, international climate negotiations like those in Copenhagen and Cancún are just one of many fronts that we'll be working on. The core of our work in the U.S. will be to build political power, consciousness, and alliances at the levels where we can have the most impact right now—locally and regionally. These projects will be tactics towards advancing our long-term goals, all of which can't be realized right now. The clearer we can be about what we want to do and why, the better chance we have of managing our alliances.
The Road to Cancún
We are leaving Cochabamba, en route to Cancún by way of our communities. We have our work cut out for us, but I believe that we are up to the task. In the next seven months we can build a climate movement stronger and more grounded than this country has ever seen. We can win support, and put the "army of cynics" that President Obama described during his campaign (and whose ranks he should leave as soon as possible) on their heels. We can strike a blow for our allies in the South and build a replacement for Copenhagen Accord. And we can begin the hard task of transforming this country to meet the needs of the people and Mother Earth.
We don't lack talent or desire, so let's not lack confidence or imagination. As Eduardo Galeano wrote in his letter at the opening of the conference, "May we be able to do everything that is possible, and the impossible too."

On Tuesday, Microsoft released the final set of patches for Windows XP. They are included among the general Windows fixes issued on what's come to be known as Patch Tuesday, the second Tuesday of each month. From here on out, Patch Tuesday will be XP-free.
As I wrote earlier this week, that means serious security issues for desktop users of XP who are now vulnerable to exploits of flaws that will never be fixed. And there are quite a few of them, with XP installed on an estimated 30 percent of all Internet-connected Windows PCs.
But even if you are running a newer version of Windows – or a non-Microsoft operating system, for that matter – you may feel the impact of the XP problem.
That's because there thousands of computers on the Internet using XP that host websites, according to Netcraft, a U.K.-based security company. They, too, would be vulnerable to exploits cooked up by bad guys. You could end up visiting a site compromised in this way.
In its April 2014 survey of the Web, it found more than 6,000 websites where XP is the underlying OS. Nearly a third of them are in the United States, and your taxpayer dollars are paying for some of them:
Notably, there are 14 US government websites still running on Windows XP, including a webmail system used by the State of Utah. Unsupported web-facing Windows XP servers are likely to become prime targets for hackers, particularly if any new Windows XP vulnerabilities are discovered, as no security updates will be available to fix them. To afford some breathing space, the UK Government recently struck a £5.5m deal for Microsoft to provide it with an extra year of support for Windows XP, although there are currently no Windows XP-powered websites under the gov.uk top-level domain.
But those numbers pale in comparison to those running an even older Microsoft OS: Windows NT 4. Netcraft found 50,000 sites hosted by that software, though "three quarters of these sites are served from the same computer in Norway."
Want to know what software a website is using? Netcraft has a tool called "What's that site running?" that yields a detailed technical breakdown. You can find it on Netcraft's home page.

CLEVELAND — Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. says its third-quarter profit rose 51 percent on strong performances in Latin America and North America.
The Akron-based tire maker said Tuesday that it earned $166 million, or 62 cents per share, for the July-September period.
Excluding charges, Goodyear earned 68 cents per share, beating the Wall Street estimate by 1 cent.
Revenue fell 6 percent, to $5 billion from $5.26 billion. Analysts polled by FactSet expected higher sales of $5.27 billion.
Goodyear sold more tires in North America and was aided by a shift in Latin America to higher-value replacement tires.
Goodyear shares dropped 73 cents, or 3.3 percent, to $21.32 in premarket trading. The stock has gained 60 percent this year.

October July? Rodriguez is back in the starting line-up (if you call "batting sixth" the starting line-up). Dog Fister and Andy Pettitte square off in chilly New York, and the ghosts of Orioles past will fly aimlessly through stadium, moaning resonantly and giving players from both sides the chills. Will the accompanying dread cause a balk? Only time will tell.
If you're not a fan of either of these teams, and you're trying to wring some enjoyment from a series that features a team that was in the ALCS last year and a team that's in the ALCS every other year, I suggest a drinking game. Drink every time: you can see grass; they cut to commercial; the announcers mention baseball; you feel like it. Ta-da! You're drunk and Prince Fielder is running around all blubbery-like. Sports are fun again.

Tenn. gun bill rolls forward despite grumbling
The measure would allow gun owners with permits to carry weapons in their cars anywhere they want, including school and workplace parking lots.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The year's most watched piece of gun legislation in Tennessee appears to be on the fast track to the floor of the state House of Representatives, even though both sides say serious questions remain about it.
A bill that would give nearly 400,000 gun owners in Tennessee the right to carry their weapons in their vehicles anywhere they want -- including school and workplace parking lots -- could be passed as soon as next week despite widely shared doubts about its scope and effectiveness.
The defeat of a Republican House leader last year for her role in the failure of "guns-in-trunks" legislation made passage of the measure seem inevitable after the November elections. But the dynamics shifted in December after 20 students were gunned down in a Connecticut elementary school, prompting talk of more gun restrictions in Washington.
In Nashville, Republican leaders are eager to pass the bill after several years of debate. But lobbyists for gun rights, business organizations and universities say it is not clear whether the bill would make it illegal for employers to fire people after they have brought a gun to work. In some cases, they say, the measure might actually place new restrictions on carrying guns in vehicles.
"Over the last four years, the leadership in the General Assembly has been very opposed to this particular bill," said John Harris, executive director of the Tennessee Firearms Association. "It's an odd set of facts when all of a sudden we're moving at breakneck speed. It makes you wonder if these (questions) are unintentional or intentional."
House Bill 118, which a key legislative committee is expected to bring up for a vote on Wednesday, would rewrite Tennessee's gun laws to make it clear that people with handgun carry permits could take their weapons anywhere in their cars, even businesses, universities and other places where guns are banned.
The legislation, sponsored by Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey in the Senate and backed by Speaker Beth Harwell in the state House of Representatives, is seen as a major concession to gun rights advocates, especially in the wake of the Newtown, Conn., shooting.
The Senate passed its version of the measure last week. Clearing the House would appear to put an end to several years of debate over "guns-in-trunks" measures.
Business and higher education groups appear to have resigned themselves to the bill's passage. Some even point to silver linings in the latest version of the measure -- provisions that narrow its scope and limit the ability of workers fired for having a gun to sue the employer -- which they say represents improvements over the National Rifle Association-backed bills that failed in years past.
"We'd prefer that nothing pass at all," said Bradley Jackson, lobbyist for the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce and Industry, "but we do realize that this is a better bill."
Newtown changes landscape
This year's debate over guns-in-trunks illustrates how the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre has shifted the priorities on gun issues, even in a pro-Second Amendment legislature like the Tennessee General Assembly.
Last fall, the NRA led a campaign to defeat the third-ranking Republican in the House, state Rep. Debra Maggart of Hendersonville. In a race watched nationally as a test of the NRA's strength, the organization pinned blame on Maggart for the defeat of guns-in-trunks during the previous legislative session.
Her loss appeared to show that the NRA could still take down statehouse leaders at will.
But rather than flexing its muscle, the NRA has maintained a low profile at the Capitol this year. The association's Tennessee liaison has not testified on the measure's behalf, though the NRA's top lobbyist confirmed this week that the group does support the bill.
"It's a huge step in the right direction," said Chris Cox. "Contrary to what some people might say, we're very supportive of this effort in Tennessee."
Still, the loudest grumblings about the measure making its way to the House floor have come from Harris.
Gun supporter's complaint
His biggest complaint is that the latest version of guns-in-trunks does not include a provision letting workers bring wrongful termination lawsuits if they are fired for bringing a gun to work. Another complaint is that it limits the right to bring a gun to work only to people with carry permits -- potentially leaving out many hunters and other gun owners.
"This puts a lot of citizens at risk," said Harris.
The changes have not been enough to win the support of business groups and universities. But it may have persuaded them to acquiesce to a measure that appears inevitable.
"I'm not hearing a lot about it," said David Gregory, vice chancellor for administration and facilities development for the Tennessee Board of Regents.
For schools, the bill might actually represent a tightening in state law, several people who have reviewed the legislation say. That's because it would change a provision of Tennessee law that had been overlooked until recently.
A section of Tennessee code added more than 16 years ago says that a "nonstudent adult" can store a firearm in his or her vehicle while on a school property. By limiting that right only to people with handgun carry permits, the bill may actually tighten restrictions at educational institutions.
"Our position is a little bit different in that we tend to look at this through the lens of student safety and faculty safety," said Gregory. "We're hopeful that the Ramsey bill takes precedent, but we'd like to make that clear."

Boston College holds off Penn State 73-61
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Freshman Olivier Hanlan scored 22 points and Boston College withstood a furious late-game rally to beat Penn State 73-61 on Wednesday night in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge.
The Eagles (3-4) led by 20 with 6:21 left before an 18-1 run got Penn State (3-3) within 60-57 with 3:05 left, led by Jermaine Marshall (25 points) and D.J. Newbill (22).
Hanlan's three-point play on a jumper in the lane ended the spurt, and Andrew Van Nest's open layup gave Boston College a 65-59 lead with 1:52 left.
Joe Rahon added 14 points for Boston College, which built its big lead off a run of 3-point shooting in the second half and defensive lapses in the lane by Penn State.
But the young Eagles, who start three sophomores and two freshmen, nearly let it slip away down the stretch.
Hanlan finished 15 of 19 from the foul line.
Many of those clutch shots came in the waning minutes to help Boston College hold off the Nittany Lions.
Marshall and Newbill led the way, scoring all of Penn State's points during the late run by forcing turnovers and attacking the basket. Marshall's 3 with 3:39 riled up the Jordan Center crowd before Newbill went 1 of 2 from the line to get within three.
But Hanlan and Rahon -- both freshmen -- settled Boston College down at the line, and Penn State lost its best offensive weapon after Newbill fouled out with 1:11 left trailing by six.
Penn State played its second game without leading scorer and point guard Tim Frazier, who is out for the year with a left Achilles injury. Until the late spurt, the Nittany Lions looked out of rhythm with the ball, especially in a first half with 10 turnovers.
The Eagles were stunned in their last outing, 56-54, at home by Bryant -- a program that had just moved up to Division I four years ago and had lost its four previous meetings to Boston College.
They found the perfect opponent to get over that upset in Penn State.
Hanlan, Rahon and Lonnie Jackson hit 3s during a second-half run that helped turn a five-point lead into the 20-point bulge. With good ball movement, Boston College also took advantage of subpar play by Penn State's big men. Forward Ross Travis was a lone bright spot in the frontcourt with 13 rebounds.
Six-foot-10 forward Van Nest broke free in the lane for a 3-point play on a dunk and a late foul by forward Sasa Borovnjak to start the second-half run for Boston College. Van Nest finished with nine points off the bench.
Frazier could only watch helplessly from the sideline as the disjointed Nittany Lions struggled from the field. After looking good in its first game without Frazier, a 60-57 win last week over Bucknell, Penn State took a step back.
Newbill's high-arcing 3 just before the buzzer got Penn State within 31-24 at the half.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2 (UPI) -- The U.S. Labor Department said Friday the economy added 171,00 jobs in October and the jobless rate rose to 7.9 percent as more people entered the workforce.
In the last key economic report before the presidential election, the Labor Department said the economy gained 184,000 private-sector jobs, which was offset by further layoffs of state and local government workers.
The department also revised September's payroll gains upward to 148,000 jobs from the initially reported 114,000, and the August gain to 192,000, up from 142,000.
The largest job gains in October were in professional and business services, healthcare, retail, leisure and hospitality, and construction.
The department said 578,000 more people actively sought employment in October and Alan Krueger, chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, said that was "largely" the reason the unemployment rate rose a 0.1 percent from its September rate of 7.8 percent.
At a campaign rally in Hilliard, Ohio, Friday President Barack Obama told supporters the Labor Department report found U.S. companies "hired more workers in October than at any time in the last eight months."
He said the economy has made "real progress" during his term in office "but we are here today because we know we've got more work to do."
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney issued a statement calling the increase in the unemployment rate "a sad reminder that the economy is at a virtual standstill."
"The jobless rate is higher than it was when President Obama took office," Romney said, "and there are still 23 million Americans struggling for work."
U.S. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said, "Four years of persistently high unemployment and long-term joblessness might be the best President Obama can do -- but it's nowhere near what the American people can do if we get Washington out of their way."
Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist for Capital Economics, told The New York Times Friday's report indicates things are "better than we'd expected and certainly better than we'd thought a few months ago," but he said the economy is not making sufficient progress to bring the jobless rate down "significantly and rapidly."
The Labor Department said there were 154,000 fewer people listed as "discouraged workers" -- people who have given up looking for work -- than there had been 12 months earlier.
When the Labor Department reported last month the September unemployment rate was down to 7.8 percent -- to its lowest level since Obama took office -- some conservatives accused the Bureau of Labor Statistics of manipulating the figures to help Obama's re-election chances.
October is the 25th straight month in which the U.S. economy has posted net job gains but economists calculate the economy needs to add at least 250,000 jobs a month for several years to bring the jobless rate to less than 6 percent, MarketWatch reported. The last time the rate was at that level was July 2008 when it was 5.8 percent, BLS says.
The recession started in December 2007 and accelerated sharply in September 2008.

Network Operators Worldwide Will Use Technology to Provide Entertainment to Customers Using i-mode Mobile Internet Services Developed by NTT DoCoMo
BARCELONA, SPAIN, Feb. 12, 2007 - SanDisk® Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK) today announced that the i-mode™ Alliance, which consists of 18 mobile network providers around the globe*, has selected SanDisk's TrustedFlash™ technology as the preferred solution for securely pre-loading and downloading premium content on removable flash memory cards in mobile phones that use i-mode™ mobile Internet services outside of Japan. The announcement was made at 3GSM World Congress, where SanDisk is exhibiting its mobile products in Hall 7, Booth 7C62 and Hall 8, Booth 8C74 at Spain's Fira de Barcelona exhibition grounds.
SanDisk's TrustedFlash currently is available on SanDisk microSD™ flash memory cards that fit into slots on i-mode enabled handsets. TrustedFlash secures premium content to the card itself so that consumers can easily move their purchased entertainment - such as music and movies - to another i-mode phone simply by transferring the card. This allows users to store more of their premium and personal content as well as upgrade to new enabled mobile phones without abandoning their files.
More than 53 million people across the globe subscribe to i-mode services, which are currently available in 16 countries/regions of Asia-Pacific and Europe: Australia, Belgium, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan and the UK. Now available to all i-mode Alliance members outside of Japan, TrustedFlash is launching initially in Europe. The first company to incorporate TrustedFlash into its network is French i-mode operator Bouygues Telecom, which started offering SanDisk TrustedFlash cards to its customers late last year.
"The TrustedFlash card is one of the key elements of the i-mode Alliance strategy toward the mass adoption of its multimedia services," said Takeshi Natsuno, NTT DoCoMo's senior vice president responsible for the i-mode Alliance. "It brings more value to end-users, enabling them to carry content everywhere allowed while protecting the assets of the service providers and providing the maximum flexibility for the mobile operator. TrustedFlash is an important marketing tool to increase revenue from the i-mode services and the operator stores," he added.
"With TrustedFlash now used by the i-mode Alliance, we expect this technology to quickly become a standard," said Yoram Cedar, SanDisk's executive vice president of mobile handset business and corporate engineering. "And we believe that mobile phone manufacturers will leverage SanDisk's TrustedFlash card to create more value for end users and to accelerate the adoption of mobile content services," he added.
TrustedFlash cards also come with advanced mechanisms targeted to increase online revenue for a network operator. When activated by the handset, a menu from the card helps users navigate to premium content or to various online services. Also, content that is preloaded on a SanDisk TrustedFlash enabled card can take a user to the online associated service.
TrustedFlash memory cards for i-mode phones will be sold through mobile phone and electronics stores in the countries where the service is available, and will be offered initially on SanDisk microSD cards.
SanDisk is the original inventor of flash storage cards and is the world's largest supplier of flash data storage card products, using its patented, high-density flash memory and controller technology. SanDisk is headquartered in Milpitas, California and has operations worldwide, with more than half its sales outside the U.S.
* i-mode is available to roaming users in the USA but is not provided by any mobile operator in the USA

It was a time when the financial markets were growing and globalizing rapidly. Gossip, speculation and misinformation abounded. There was a need for a "friend to the honest financier and the respectable broker." From 1888, when it began publishing under that motto, The Financial Times has seen continuity in its mission.
On Wednesday, The F.T. is celebrating its 125th birthday. The newspaper's London headquarters along the south bank of the Thames will be lit up in pink, the color of the paper on which it has been printed since shortly after it was founded. There will be a few parties — understated, of course, for these are straitened times in the City of London, and challenging ones for the newspaper industry.
Anniversaries are difficult for newspapers. At a time when they are losing subscribers and advertisers, and losing ground to digital media organizations that are still in their adolescence, few publishers want to emphasize their age.
But John Ridding, chief executive of The F.T., has a better digital story to tell than most other newspapers. True, the print editions are fading. But The F.T. has figured out how to make significant money from new outlets, without straying from its original purpose. So Mr. Ridding is not worried about looking back.
"Milestones matter," he said. "In our industry, which has seen so much upheaval and disruption, it shows amazing continuity. The look and feel of the business was very different but there are some enduring constants that persist."
In addition to its birthday, The F.T. can point to several other recent or pending milestones.
Last year the number of digital subscribers, now more than 300,000, surpassed the print circulation of the paper, which has slipped below that figure. This year, print and digital subscriptions and sales are set to overtake advertising as a source of revenue. Mobile devices now account for one-quarter of The F.T.'s digital traffic and about 15 percent of new subscriptions.
The F.T. was one of the first newspapers to charge readers for access to its Web site, which it did in 2002. It revamped its digital business model in 2007, moving to a "metered" approach, in which readers get a certain number of articles free before they are asked to subscribe.
Since 2007, The F.T.'s paying digital audience has tripled, and the metered approach has been adopted by other newspapers, including The New York Times.
With print circulation moving in the other direction — last year alone, it fell about 15 percent — The F.T. recently accelerated its move away from paper. In January, Lionel Barber, the paper's editor, sent a memo to the staff, detailing a plan to "ensure that we are serving a digital platform first and a newspaper second."
Under the plan, the print operations of The F.T. will be streamlined. While separate regional editions — for the United States, Britain, Continental Europe, Asia, India and the Middle East — will be maintained, there will be fewer nightly updates.
Editorial hierarchies will be simplified, Mr. Barber wrote, with an end to "octopus commissioning" under which reporters answer to multiple editors. Deadlines will be more strictly enforced. The paper is eliminating about three dozen editorial positions, though 10 posts are being created on the digital side.
Mr. Ridding described the new approach as "more of an evolution than a revolution."
"It's more of an intensification of an existing digital trend," he said. "It's driven by a need to redeploy resources to digital. That's what readers want."
It's not all about cutting. The F.T. also continues to develop new products, like an F.T. Weekend mobile application, to accompany the Saturday/Sunday print edition, which remains an important source of advertising revenue; the app is set to be introduced shortly. Last year, The F.T. began publishing e-books with selected themes, compiling articles from the newspaper and enhancing them with material from journalists' notebooks; the first one examined the possibility of a Greek exit from the euro zone.
At a time when The F.T.'s biggest rival, The Wall Street Journal, is trying to broaden its appeal to general readers outside the financial industry, The F.T. is ever more focused on corporate customers.
Its total 600,000 print and digital subscribers include more than 163,000 users at 2,700 companies and other concerns that have bought business licenses to The F.T.'s digital content. A large but unspecified portion of The F.T.'s individual subscriptions are bought on expense accounts.
"They are an unusual beast, because their market is business to business," said Douglas McCabe, an analyst at Enders Analysis in London. "It's a very different model from a conventional newspaper."
Analysts say the strong growth in digital subscriptions masks the fact that online advertising has failed to catch on in a big way. This helps explain why The F.T., despite its plugged-in and mobile audience, has not done away with its print editions, despite their flagging circulation. The weekend paper, especially, remains a favorite of luxury advertisers.
"In one sense, its challenges are the same as everyone else's," Mr. McCabe said. "Print circulation and advertising are falling away. Advertising in a digital environment remains difficult for them, as it does for everybody."
Although the business audience has been an attractive niche for The F.T., Mr. McCabe said, it could also make the paper increasingly vulnerable to competition from operations like Bloomberg and Thomson Reuters, which deliver news electronically alongside their financial data services.
This is one reason for the perennial speculation about a possible sale of The F.T. by its parent company, the London-based publisher Pearson.
"Pearson has said repeatedly that The F.T. is not for sale," Mr. Ridding said. "This kind of thing has been around us for as long as I can remember. We're getting used to it. I think people tend to hold on to The F.T."
The F.T. has had only a handful of owners, and Pearson has held it since 1957. One of the reasons that the paper has reached the ripe age of 125 — a milestone that The International Herald Tribune, based in Paris, passed last year — is its founding values, Mr. Ridding said.
"Our role is to be a trusted guide, a filter," Mr. Ridding said. "It's actually a pretty constant value. In a multichannel world, whatever form journalism takes, those values and that fundamental rationale is unchanged."

SURREY, B.C. - Two children and their father escaped serious injury Tuesday evening when they were pepper-sprayed in an apparent road rage incident.
Surrey RCMP say the man was out walking with his kids, aged 4 and 6, just before 8 p.m. when he saw a vehicle speeding in the area.
Sgt. Tom Thompson says the man yelled at the driver to slow down and some words were exchanged before the vehicle sped away.
But the driver returned a short time later, got out, and pepper-sprayed the father and both children as more words were exchanged.
Thompson says all three suffered minor injuries and were treated at the scene.
Police are seeking a black Range Rover and three young East Indian males who were inside the vehicle.

DJ AM accidentally overdosed three months after filming his cameo in "Iron Man 2," and the cast and crew of the upcoming Marvel movie said Monday's premiere was bittersweet without him there.
"He really had turned his life around and then obviously something changed," Robert Downey Jr. told Access Hollywood'sTony Potts on Monday at the "Iron Man 2" premiere in Hollywood.
"My memory of him, and I believe should be everybody's, is he was just an inspiration," Robert continued. "A gifted guy, really optimistic guy and he really just got caught flat footed and that's a horrible tragedy."
Director Jon Favreau who dedicated the movie to the late DJ – whose real name was Adam Goldstein – said he looks back positively on AM's life and impact.
"I still count DJ AM as having made it, he was 11 years sober. It's tough because you have one rough night and that's it," Jon told Access on Monday. "He just came off as a really healthy, together guy and I really enjoyed the time I got to spend with him…it was just very surprising, of all people, it seem like he was rock solid. So, I choose to remember him as somebody who inspired others, both with the music and helping other people with their recovery."
Don Cheadle, who suits up alongside Tony Stark as Lt. Col. James 'Rhodey' Rhodes in the sequel, said he hopes others battling addiction will learn from the late DJ.
"It's a tribute to him," Don told Access on Sunday at the movie's junket. "It's tragic obviously what happened, but it's a cautionary tale to everyone who struggles with that."

The NCAA will host a women's basketball summit Monday with top coaches, administrators and committee members to discuss the paper that Val Ackerman submitted in late June with suggestions to improve the state of the game.
The summit will serve as a prelude to a bigger gathering at the women's Final Four this April in Nashville.
Many of Ackerman's suggestions were aimed at boosting attendance, which has become stagnant over the past few years. Last season the NCAA averaged 5,466 for all tournament rounds, which was 17th since the tournament began in 1982.
While most of the ideas that will be discussed at the summit are for long term-solutions, the women's basketball committee came up with its own short-term plan by allowing schools to bid on and host the NCAA regionals for the first time in nearly a decade. It's a move that has angered many coaches.
NEW RULE: Impact will be difficult to predict
"I don't agree with it," said Geno Auriemma, who is expected to be at the summit Monday. "People used to buy their way into the Final Four, and now that's exactly what teams are going to be able to do again. People that have the money are going to bid on it, and they are going to get it more times than not."
UConn was not one of the schools to bid on the regionals, although the school did bid on the opening two rounds.
"I don't mind the first two rounds being on campus sites because, generally speaking, the higher seed is going to win those games no matter where they are being played," he said. "But to have a game that is being played for the right to go to the Final Four, I just don't think it's right.
"I know how tough it is for people to play us in Bridgeport or in Rhode Island, which is close by. I know how tough it is to play us in those places. But to make a team come to Storrs, Conn., and beat us there, I just don't think that's the direction we want to go in."
The NCAA said that only four of the 16 schools that made the regional semifinals last season bid for this year's regional. Still, that doesn't appease coaches.
"To me, the hypocrisy is overwhelming in a sense that money is going to trump fairness," Duke's Joanne P. McCallie said. "That's the message that's being sent. We are principled about our game, but we can be bought and sold, and the idea that someone can buy a very highly probable trip to the Final Four is something I can't even understand."
But the move increased the number of bids from three to 20.
"That was really helpful," NCAA vice president for women's basketball Anucha Browne said. "What I said to coaches was that this was a stopgap, and we're doing a number of potential improvements on how we approach regionals."
It's not only schools that are putting up bids. MAAC commissioner Rich Ensor said that his conference submitted a bid in Springfield, Mass. The MAAC successfully hosted a regional in Bridgeport last year that drew well and wasn't a losing financial proposition.
"It's possible. It takes a lot of work and a little luck," Ensor said. "UConn draws well in that marketplace, but what put us over the top was Delaware. Having a story line in the marketplace was interesting for fans and it brought a sizeable contingent, including New Jersey Gov. Christie."
The NCAA will announce the sites for this year's tournament Oct. 7.

text: I am working on inflation, large scale structure in modified gravity models, and cosmic superstrings. Within inflation, I am studying DBI inflation in particular, with conclusions that generalize to other k-inflation / k-essence theories. After studying both tunneling and eternal inflation for such theories, I am now fleshing out a mechanism that generates these kinds of theories as a low energy effective theory coming from general multi-field models where the fields have kinetic terms that are dependent on the values of other fields, such as occurs in supergravity models of closed string moduli. A long term goal is a better understanding of large perturbations in DBI / k-essence models. The modified gravity model I am studying is inspired by the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati brane-world model; in more mundane terms, it is a phenomenologically viable modification of gravity with a very light, but massive, graviton. My work is concerned with how large scale structure develops in this model. I am using N-body, particle-mesh codes to study this: first, on a short time scale, using a modified version of the Newtonian Poisson equation, followed by a more comprehensive solution of the full non-linear differential equations that describe the extra scalar degree of freedom that a massive graviton must exhibit. I will compare these results to galaxy survey data and other cosmological observations to place limits on these models. Finally, I am continuing to study the distinctive phenomenology of cosmic superstrings. Their contributions to the small angular scale power and B-mode polarization of the CMB could be seen within the next couple of years. In the meantime, I am working out their effect on the 21 cm radiation that will eventually be the richest resource for observational data.

Ronald Sydney Embleton was born in London in 1930 and studied art from painter David Bomberg. He joined a commercial art studio and started drawing his first comics, mostly adventure comics such as 'The Black Lion', 'Big Flame; Black Hawk' and 'Big Indian', which he signed simply "Ron". At the end of the 1940s, his comics career was interrupted by army service in Malaya, and when Embleton returned in 1950, the British comics scene had changed towards more "American-style" comics. Ron adapted, teaming up with Terence Patrick and James Bleach to produce the 'Gallant' series.
A very productive artist, Ron Embleton contributed comics to several magazines, coming up with weekly serials such as 'Forgotten City', 'Black Dagger' and 'Into Strange Lands'. At the same time, he developed an interest in oil painting, eventually combining techniques in 'Wulf the Briton', his first painted strip, which he took over from Ruggerio Giovannini in 1957. Embleton continued to produce historic comics (like 'Wrath of the Gods', 'Roger's Rangers', 'Marco Polo'), his favorite genre, although sometimes side-tracking to science fiction ('Stingray', 'Captain Scarlet').
In 1972, he made an erotic satirical comic for Penthouse, called 'Wicked Wanda' (written by Frederic Mullally). In the late 1970s, Embleton took over the graphical part of the 'Trigan Empire' comics, a series drawn for a long time by Don Lawrence (scripts by Mike Butterworth). Ron Embleton died on 13 February 1988, in Bournemouth.

PITTSBURGH, Dec. 30 (UPI) -- Ben Roethlisberger fired a trio of touchdown passes and Pittsburgh's defense forced four turnovers Sunday in the Steelers' 24-10 win over Cleveland.
Roethlisberger completed 15-of-23 for 134 yards for the Steelers (8-8), who broke a three-game losing streak and managed to finish a disappointing 2012 season at the .500 mark.
Cleveland's Thaddeus Lewis -- subbing for injured quarterbacks Brandon Weeden and Colt McCoy -- went 22-of-32 through the air for 204 yards with a touchdown and one interception in his NFL debut.
Benjamin Watson made seven grabs en route to 64 yards for the Browns (5-11).
