Metro Manila · Driving in Makati
A business district is always busy, especially during the rush hours roughly 7 am - 10 am and 4.30 pm to 8 pm. Except avoiding to drive during those times, there are some more details gathered by our Megacities team that might help you to stay sane when driving in Makati.
If you are not yet used to the streets in the business district, take our advise: get a cab. Traffic rules are constantly changing, making two-way streets one-way streets and the other way around. Especially the one-way streets and the prohibition of making u-turns at streets where you would like to make them can be a hassle. So before you bring your own car or motorbike to the Hotspots and Hotdots, learn the robes of where and where not to turn. The fines here are pretty high and officers waiting at exactly those corner where you really would like to make a u-turn but for some strange reason, it is not allowed. To stay out of trouble: have a look first.
This is also what our Megacities team did when taping the streets of Makati, taking videos and pictures. Getting some maps and doing a round first before trying to explore the place further was a good choice. As a foreign Megacitizens though you have one advantage: positive discrimination. If you do something wrong, be nice to the officers, explain them that you are not from here and - most of the time - they will let you go with a warning - especially because they do not like to engage into a lengthy discussion in English.

Magpies deny Shakers
Notts County twice came from behind to earn a thrilling 3-3 draw with Bury and stretch their unbeaten run to 10 matches.
Last Updated: 14/11/09 6:46pm
Notts County twice came from behind to earn a thrilling 3-3 draw with Bury and stretch their unbeaten run to 10 matches.
The Shakers stormed into a 2-0 lead through Daniel Nardiello and Andy Morrell, only for a Lee Hughes double to bring County level before the break.
Stephen Dawson's superb 50th-minute strike put Bury back in front but Matt Ritchie's 77th-minute equaliser prevented Bury climbing above fifth-placed Notts.
Buoyed by their biggest crowd of the season of 3,602, Bury made a superb start with Nardiello claiming a ninth-minute opener. The Blackpool striker arrived on Friday on a one-month loan deal and slotted past Kasper Schmeichel from Danny Racchi's through-ball.
Nardiello then squared for fit-again Morrell to double Bury's lead in the 19th minute before Notts regrouped, playing some excellent football.
Hughes turned in Luke Rodgers' low centre to pull one back before heading home from Ritchie's left-wing cross in the 38th minute. Dawson beat Schmeichel from 25 yards and the hosts look set to hang on until Dave Buchanan failed to clear Hughes' cross and Ritchie pounced to slam home. Bury keeper Wayne Brown then twice denied Hughes to secure a well- deserved point for the Shakers.

It would be extremely difficult, and perhaps impossible, to use autotools under Windows. Even if it were possible, it might require horrible workarounds like installing cygwin. Even on Linux variants like Ubuntu 12.04, there are major build issues because /bin/sh is the Dash shell, rather than the Bash shell as it is in other Linux versions. It is currently impossible to build the native code under Ubuntu 12.04 because of this problem. > CMake has robust cross-platform support, including Windows. It does not use shell scripts. > 2. automake error messages are very confusing. For example, "autoreconf: cannot empty /tmp/ar0.4849: Is a directory" or "Can't locate object method "path" via package "Autom4te..." are common error messages. In order to even start debugging automake problems you need to learn shell, m4, sed, and the a bunch of other things. With CMake, all you have to learn is the syntax of CMakeLists.txt, which is simple. > CMake can do all the stuff autotools can, such as making sure that required libraries are installed. There is a Maven plugin for CMake as well. > 3. Different versions of autotools can have very different behaviors. For example, the version installed under openSUSE defaults to putting libraries in /usr/local/lib64, whereas the version shipped with Ubuntu 11.04 defaults to installing the same libraries under /usr/local/lib. (This is why the FUSE build is currently broken when using OpenSUSE.) This is another source of build failures and complexity. If things go wrong, you will often get an error message which is incomprehensible to normal humans (see point #2). > CMake allows you to specify the minimum_required_version of CMake that a particular CMakeLists.txt will accept. In addition, CMake maintains strict backwards compatibility between different versions. This prevents build bugs due to version skew. > 4. autoconf, automake, and libtool are large and rather slow. This adds to build time. > For all these reasons, I think we should switch to CMake for compiling native (C/C++) code in Hadoop. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

Who's Up For Some Old Man Ball?Posted by rtmsf on October 21st, 2008
We stumbled across this blurb today and hadn't seen it anywhere else. Ken Mink is a sweet-shooting guard from Tennessee who hopes to see a few minutes a game this season for his new school, Roane State (TN) Community College. He transferred in from Lees (KY) Junior College, but his route between the two schools was more than a little unorthodox. You see, Mink, a self-described adventurer and athlete, last played college ball when it was whiter than snow in 1956, and he is now 73 years old. From the Knoxville News-Sentinel:
Ken Mink was shooting baskets in his driveway about this time last year when he had a sports epiphany. "I had been knocking down shot after shot, so when I came in the house I told my wife, 'I've still got it,' " said Mink, a 73-year-old semi-retired journalist. "She said, 'You've got what?' I said, 'I can still play.' " Roane State coach Randy Nesbit took Mink up on his offer. "I'm not very good at saying no," said Nesbit, who just turned 50. "It's a gesture of good will to help a fine man find closure. Why not?"

Hey, we just think that's great. We're sure that the Raider players will love the daily routine of ridiculous touch fouls, razor-sharp elbows, 60-lb metal knee braces and standstill corner jumpers, but the important thing is that everyone gets to live their dream, right?
Seriously though, if we're puttering around half as well as this old codger at his age, we'd be thrilled. Although from the looks of it in the video here, Mink needs to step it up on D…

Turtles of Wisconsin
Have you ever seen a turtle sunning itself on a log on a warm, Wisconsin summer day? Most of us have. Turtles, with their amazing colorful skeletons, are different from the other reptiles. Besides sporting their house on their backs, they are also slow-moving on land. This sometimes gives us a chance to get a good look at them.
Do you want to know what a scute, egg tooth, and plastron are? Read on for some fun facts about these slow-moving, colorful critters.

New technologies can offer police many useful methods for combating criminal activity, with such tools as GPS and advanced communications systems. Technologies such as body armor and less-lethal projectiles also improve the safety of both police and the public. However, in an increasingly high-tech world, more and more crimes involve technologies and police must be prepared for them.
NIJ sponsors a broad array of research and development of equipment and technology for police. Its research priorities are based on the needs of the law enforcement community. NIJ both creates new technologies and evaluates technologies on the market for effectiveness and safety. Its evaluation programs are often conducted in real-world environments in partnership with local law enforcement and other outside entities. NIJ is also central in the development of standards for new technologies, such as ballistics standards for body armor.
NIJ is committed to helping make new equipment and technology available to police throughout the country. Through outreach programs, NIJ introduces police to new tools and offers a variety of training programs on new technologies. NIJ also provides ongoing technology assistance for police using advanced communications equipment.

During a recent light-hearted exchange involving a high-ranking Texas game warden, one of the folks in the conversation mentioned something about a game warden giving someone a citation for violating the law.
The warden, who had served more than a quarter-century in almost every region of the state, corrected the speaker.
"We don't 'give' citations," the veteran warden said with a smile. "You have to earn them."
The people involved in most of the incidents below certainly seem to have done just that.
Here's this week's selection of some of the cases and incidents worked by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department game wardens.
- Waller County Game Warden Kevin Glass on May 27 met four Harris County assistant district attorneys at the San Jacinto River.
The ADAs were riding along with Warden Glass to learn what wardens face when enforcing water safety laws.
Warden Glass stopped a couple of boats to show what a water safety inspection entails.
Soon after the stop, a Jet Ski came by close enough and fast enough to throw water onto the warden's boat.
That operator was cited for violating water safety laws.
Two boat inspections later, Warden Glass stopped a boat holding five people.
The boat operator was unsteady and had some slurred speech. He also did poorly on the seated field sobriety test, which the ADAs got to see under field conditions.
The driver blew a 0.11 on the Intoxilyzer.
Because the driver had three previous convictions for driving while intoxicated, felony Boating While Intoxicated charges were filed.
- The evening of Mother's Day, El Paso Game Wardens Hallie Dacy and Kenneth Zuber were checking fishermen at Ascarate Lake when they became aware a group of three adults had flipped their canoe and were floating in the middle of the lake. The three were wearing life jackets.
Although many other canoes were in the area, none helped the three.
Zuber and Dacy watched the three struggle, and saw they appeared unable to swim to shore.
Realizing no one around the three was going to help the stricken boaters, Zuber and Dacy borrowed a paddle boat from a lady and her young daughter and paddled to the center of the lake to the now exhausted and frightened adults.
Wardens instructed the three adults to hang on to the edges of the paddleboat while Zuber and Dacy paddled back to shore.
- Collin County Game Warden Joshua Ross received a call May 4 from Van Zandt County Game Warden Steve Stapleton about an online ad on a popular Web site, offering great horned owls for sale.
Wardens contacted the seller to arrange for an undercover buy.
After wardens haggled the price down to $100 from the seller's original price of $850, the seller agreed on a time and location for the deal.
With assistance from Collin County Game Warden LeRoy Thompson, the buy was completed, resulting in the seller's being apprehended and one adult screech owl seized.
Dallas County Game Wardens Jamie Sanchez and Martin Oviedo were on standby to travel and search the seller's residence for other birds of prey.
No other raptors were located.
The seized owl was transported to a local rehabber for evaluation.
Multiple cases pending.
- An Alabama man staying overnight at a motel in Coleman was surprised when Game Warden James Brown knocked on the motel room door with questions concerning a possible live wild animal in the room.
Warden Brown questioned the man, who explained he did have a live coyote in his motel room.
Warden Brown discovered the man had a live fox pup.
The man was cited, and the fox was taken to a rehabilitator in Callahan County.
- Kerrville Law Enforcement Office received a tip from an individual regarding a subject selling fox squirrels on the Internet from her home in Gillespie County.
Kerr County Warden Kenny Lee and Gillespie County Warden Sam Harris followed up on the information, and the subject admitted to selling one fox squirrel to a Texas resident for $100 and having arranged to sell another to someone in California.
The subject changed her mind when several people commented to her online advising her of the TPWD Web site and the regulations against the sale.
Cases pending.
- While on water safety patrol May 13, Hays County Game Wardens James Michael and Jake Scott encountered a subject during a water safety contact who had eight outstanding warrants.
Warrants included: felony failure to stop and render aid, felony assault (vehicle), bail jumping and possession of marijuana.
The subject was promptly taken into custody and transported to the Travis County Jail.
- Travis County Game Wardens Jeff Hill and Theron Oatman were conducting a water safety inspection on Lake Austin May 12 when a boat cut perilously close between the stopped vessel and the shore.
The boat operator released a loud scream of "Yahoo" as she drove past at a high rate of speed.
Warden Hill stopped the woman and, after investigation, arrested her for Boating While Intoxicated.
Subject refused to provide a sample of blood so a search warrant was obtained.
Case pending.
- Game Wardens Jarret Barker and Marcus Vela were involved in serving an arrest warrant and search warrant in Harlingen concerning a subject arrested for impersonating a State Game Warden.
The arrested subject was frequenting popular fishing locations, using the name of actual Texas game warden from the area and seized fish from fishermen in performance of his illegal activity.
Subject was placed in the Cameron County Jail.
- Tom Green County Game Warden Jason Huebner, Irion County Game Warden Justin Jackson and Schleicher County Game Warden Chris Frey made the first BWI arrest on Lake Nasworthy this year on May 19.
The suspect provided a breath sample indicating a 0.172 blood/alcohol level, more than twice the 0.08 blood alcohol level Texas law defines as intoxicated.
After hearing the Intoxilyzer results and not liking them, the subject stated he was going to be calling former President George W. Bush to complain.
- Jasper County Game Warden Morgan Inman was patrolling the Neches River on May 22 when he noticed buzzards circling nearby.
Inman parked his boat, investigated and found what was attracting the buzzards—three alligator carcasses with the tails cut off.
Inman followed an ATV trail near the area to a small camp house on a private lake, where he discovered a boat with blood in it tied to a dock.
He contacted the landowner, who was able to provide information that led to the violators who illegally shot the alligators.
Cases pending.
- Harris County Game Warden Jennifer Inkster received a tip that a local shoe repair shop possessed a pair of boots made from the skin of sea turtle, a species protected under federal law.
After inspecting the multiple pairs of turtle boots displayed for sale in the store, Warden Inkster called for the assistance of a U.S. Fish and Wildlife agent and inspector to determined authenticity.
All the boots were seized and citations issued.
- Waller County Game Warden Kevin Glass and a volunteer ride-along were working Clear Lake in Harris County for water safety violations when Warden Glass stopped a boat in the Kemah Channel for a water safety inspection.
The driver stated that they had been fishing all day near the Galveston jetties.
Warden Glass noticed during the inspection that the driver was a little unsteady and his breath had a strong odor of alcoholic beverage.
Warden Glass asked that the driver remove his sunglasses, revealing eyes that were bloodshot, glassy, and watery.
The operator could not get through the alphabet nor could he count backward.
Warden Glass drove the fisherman's boat to a nearby boat ramp and administered the seated sobriety test battery, which further indicated possible intoxication.
The suspect blew a 0.21 blood/alcohol level on the Intoxilyzer – more than twice the 0.08 level defining intoxication.
Warden Glass placed the man under arrest for Boating While Intoxicated.
- Lamb/Bailey/Cochran County Game Warden Lance May and Hale/Floyd County Game Warden Kyle Nevins were patrolling Buffalo Springs Lake on May 19 when Lubbock County reported a boat accident near the dam.
Wardens Nevins and May responded and discovered that a downed skier had been run over by a Jet Ski.
The victim was air-lifted to the University Medical Center in Lubbock.
The operator of the Jet Ski fled the scene, but was later located by the wardens.
While interviewing the suspect, the wardens noticed that he displayed signs of impairment. After Seated Field Sobriety Tests were conducted, the suspect was arrested for intoxication assault and transported to the Lubbock County Jail. A mandatory blood draw was conducted at the University Medical Center in Lubbock. Charges and blood alcohol content results are pending.
- San Patricio County Game Warden Albert Flores captured and relocated an 11-foot 2-inch alligator. The gator was blocking a gate at a home, not allowing the home's resident to leave for work.
The resident photographed the gator as proof for his tardiness to work.

Gorgeous 'Revenge' Star Madeleine Stowe Confesses She Fell Deeply In Love With Robert Pattinson
Wow! Robert has won the heart of another beautiful woman and this one wants to cast him in her new Western drama — 'Unbound Captives!'
Robert Pattinson recently admitted he thought he might be too old to star in Madeleine Stowe's film, Unbound Captives. However, Madeleine set the record straight last night at the Golden Globes in Beverly Hills.
"I actually met Robert before Twilight came out and fell deeply in love with him," the 53-year-old writer/director/actress told MTV Jan. 15.
As for the 25-year-old actor being too old for the project, Madeleine said she "might" be willing to change the character's age.
"It's going to be sort of up to Robert," she said, smiling. "We're looking at 2013 right now and the character was conceptualized as an 18 year old."
Currently, Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz are attached to the film, which is already getting a lot of positive buzz.

The wet lab portion will be taught by PFGRC staff who are directly involved in microarray production. Participants will be guided through probe preparati on and hybridizati on protocols. The training will also c on sist of detailed discussi on s on dye coupling, slide pre-hybridization, hybridization, and scanning techniques. Other topics for discussion will include the importance of assessing source material and probe quality, comparisons of various slide surfaces, and printing techniques.
The bioinformatics portion of the course covers an introduction to the stages of microarray data analysis. Major topics include data management, image analysis, normalization, and data mining. Fundamental data analysis concepts will be taught using a mix of lectures and interactive hands-on sessions. Participants will analyze the microarrays they prepared, using the open-source TM4 software suite while working closely with the software developers. CDs containing microarray datasets and the TM4 suite will be provided.
The course will be provided free of charge. Attendees will be responsible for their travel and lodging. This introductory course is one of several offered by the PFGRC on variety of functional genomics topics. Attendance will be limited to 14 participants.

Longhorn Insider: Spring in the air as clock ticks on Brown
No-huddle offense may be make-or-break.
AUSTIN — Mack Brown is in a hurry.
When his Texas Longhorns begin spring football practice today, his staff will install a new up-tempo offense with the goal of snapping the ball faster, covering yards faster, and scoring points faster. There will be no more huddles. The time for talking about things is over.
This is the latest in a series of copycat moves for Brown, and this one needs to work. In recent years, he's tried to make his defense play like the New York Jets (when they were good) and his offense control the ball like teams from the Southeastern Conference (before Johnny Manziel), and neither imitation worked. Now Brown has chosen to push the pace like Oregon and Oklahoma State, which is appropriate.
Because in more ways than one, Brown is running out of time.
Earlier this winter, Brown told a group of recruits he intends to coach at UT for the duration of his current contract, which runs through 2020. He very well might. But before he makes it to the next decade, he needs to worry about making it to 2014. And to get that far, he'll need to prove something this fall.
This is Brown's third spring since the implosion of his once-powerful program forced him to overhaul his staff and rebuild his team. During the first two years, he preached that things were getting better, even if all the progress wasn't noticeable. Often, it wasn't.
But in a few months, the masses are going to demand evidence. With 19 starters returning from last year's 9-4 team, the Longhorns no longer can claim to be young and inexperienced. They no longer can call expectations of winning a conference and playing in a Bowl Championship Series game unrealistic.
Even Brown repeatedly targeted 2013 as the year his grand plan was all supposed to come together. Now, it had better do so.
More Information
What lies ahead
As Texas heads into what could be a pivotal season for coach Mack Brown and the football program as a whole, the Longhorns open spring practice today hoping to find answers to the following questions:
Is up-tempo the answer? After two years of emphasizing controlling the clock with a running game, the Longhorns are switching to a no-huddle offense under new play-caller Major Applewhite. It might look like grasping at straws, but it also might work.
Is the defense still as terrible as it looked? Much of the blame for UT's worst statistical defensive season in history was placed on young linebackers and tackles. They're older now, and they'd better start playing like it.
Can David Ash continue to improve? Texas' quarterback was by no means a superstar as a sophomore in 2012, but he was a lot better than he was the year before. A similar step forward this year could make him a genuine difference-maker.
— Mike Finger
UT spring football
The Texas Longhorns open spring drills for the 2013 season today in Austin:
Field time: NCAA rules allow for 15 practices, which includes a spring game.
Time off: Team will be off during spring break, which goes from March 11-16.
Orange-White game: 6:30 p.m. March 30, Royal-Memorial Stadium
Sources: NCAA, University of Texas
After UT's regular-season finale in December, Brown received a public vote of confidence from school president Bill Powers, who is in fact one of Brown's staunchest allies. The coach also enjoys the unqualified backing of athletic director DeLoss Dodds, who likewise is supported by Powers.
But as a group of state legislators pointed out this week, Powers is having a difficult enough time as it is preserving his job security. It's no secret that Powers and Gov. Rick Perry own conflicting views on the future of the university, and Powers currently clings to just a slim measure of support among the UT system's nine-member board of regents. Three of those regents' terms expired in February, and Perry gets to appoint their successors.
How that power struggle will ultimately affect the athletic department is yet to be determined. But considering everything going on around him, Brown would be well-served by keeping his team's level of dysfunction at a minimum.
And when the pace of his offense starts lagging in practice during the next few weeks? If he tells the players to hurry, they better know that he means it.

What does offend us is taking the Lord's name in vain. He saved you, you know. He saved us all.

There was a Batman cartoon on TV, he was soldering a board from one of his Batvehicles.

The union has become aware that the Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) may attempt to communicate with members regarding the recent MV Portland dispute. While this is a disgraceful waste of taxpayers' money, it may also cause unnecessary concern among the membership.
Accordingly, the union advises Members not to communicate with the FWO and to direct all correspondence to the union's National Legal Unit: email@example.com (a focused phone photograph of a FWO letter should suffice).
The union also confirms the Fair Work Ombudsman does not have the power to compel answers to any questions besides a person's name and address, and only then if the FWO reasonably believes the person has committed an offence under the Fair Work Act.
For further information please contact the MUA's legal staff.

Here's the president yesterday:
The bridge behind us happens to connect the state that is home to the Speaker of the House, with the home state of the Republican leader in the Senate… Mr. Boehner and Mr. McConnell, those are the two most powerful Republicans in government. They can either kill this jobs bill, or they can help pass this jobs bill…
There is no reason for Republicans in Congress to stand in the way of more construction projects. There is no reason to stand in the way of more jobs. Mr. Boehner, Mr. McConnell, help us rebuild this bridge. Help us rebuild America. Help us put construction workers back to work. Pass this bill!
Now, some folks in Congress have said, `Well, we don't like how it's paid for.' It's paid for as part of my the larger plan to pay down the debt. That plan makes additional cuts in spending. We already cut a trillion dollars in spending. This makes an additional hundreds of billions of dollars in cuts in spending. But it also asks the wealthiest Americans and the biggest corporations to pay their fair share in taxes…
There's a lot of people saying, "this is class warfare." Well, if saying that billionaires should pay the same share in taxes as a plumber or a teacher is class warfare, then you know what? I'm a warrior for the middle class. I will fight for the middle class…. But the only class warfare I've seen is the battle against the middle class.
The big question, of course, is whether or not he'll follow through with any of this if he gets re-elected. All I can say about that is that we know for sure that Rick Perry and Mitt Romney won't.
Of course I'm one who thinks that rhetoric matters. Even when politicians fail to follow through on policy there is value is saying the words, getting it into the ether, keeping the ideas alive. Ronald Reagan is a great example of that. He raised taxes and cut deals and constantly undercut his own ideology in dozens of different ways. But his influence beyond his presidency simply cannot be overstated. And it wasn't his example of negotiating that influenced, it was his rhetoric and philosophy, which was always aggressively conservative.
I would prefer that President Obama fully commit himself to these ideas and I wish I believed that he would. The past three years have made me very skeptical of that and as a matter of fact, I've come to believe that what he's actually a fiscal conservative at heart. But that doesn't mean it isn't good for him to win reelection on the basis of these left-populist ideas. It may be that he'll convince himself of their merits but, perhaps more importantly, he'll have taught a lot of Americans to think differently about these issues and at some point maybe the right wing tropes about big government and low taxes and all the rest will no longer be the default conventional wisdom among the citizenry. In any case, there's no chance it will ever change if nobody ever even articulates the other view.
So, good for Obama. I hope he means it. But even if he doesn't, I'm still glad to hear it.

In things that you thought only happened at Seattle's Grace Hospital, medical professional magicians at a London hospital recently drastically dropped a baby's core temperature for four days to save his life. Dude. Science. Right?
The boy was born with a condition called supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), which causes the heart to beat 300 times per minute (double the normal rate of 160). People born with SVT only have a five percent chance of survival, but thanks to the straight boss moves of docs at University College London Hospital, it looks like the boy will survive. Damn.
The pioneering treatment involved wrapping the boy in a blanket of cold gel so that his body temperature dropped from 37C (98.6F) to 33.3C (91.94F) and slowed his metabolism. They kept this going for four days, until his heart rate eventually slowed to a normal rate. They gradually raised the temperature, and his heart remained stable.
The boy is now six months old, and according to his mom, he's doing great. Of course, in a few years we'll realize he's The Flash. Godspeed, little superhero.

NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA-Freshman Dekontee Chea (Chelmsford, MA/ Chelmsford HS) of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's women's cross country team and the UMass Dartmouth's men's cross country team have been honored by the Little East Conference.
Chea has been named LEC Women's Rookie Runner of the Year for the fall 2010 season, while the UMass Dartmouth men earned the LEC's annual Sportsmanship Award.
Chea is the second consecutive UMass Dartmouth student-athlete to be named LEC Women's Rookie Runner of the year, following Caitlin McGarigal (Jr. Shutesbury, MA/Amherst Regional HS), who won the award last season. Chea led the Corsairs in each of the six races she competed in. She was the top freshman runner and fourth overall finisher at the Little East Conference/New England Alliance Championship in a time of 19 minutes, 20.7 seconds, and she was named All-Conference and All-New England Alliance. Her best time was at the UMass Dartmouth Invitational, when she finished 21st overall in 18:50. She finished 53rd at the NCAA Division III Regional Championships in 23:58 for six kilometers.
"If Dekontee Chea had not been selected as Women's Rookie Runner of the Year, there would need to be an investigation," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Jon Hird. "She continued to be fearless meet after meet as she challenged experienced runners from some of the top teams in New England. Finishing fourth overall in the Little East /New England Alliance Cross Country Championships is an exceptional feat, but to do it with no prior collegiate experience speaks very well for Dekontee's competitive spirit. Not only was she the top freshman in our conference, but she was among the top ten freshmen in New England, the most difficult cross country region for women in the nation."
The Sportsmanship Award is chosen by a vote of the conference coaches. "Cross country has a reputation for being a sport where all the competitors respect each other and value each other's efforts, so when rival coaches signal out your team as deserving of a sportsmanship award, it speaks very well for the young men we have here at UMass Dartmouth," said Hird " It speaks well for our assistant coach, Deon Barrett, as well. We constantly emphasize that you honor your opponent by giving them your best effort, win or lose, and this group absorbed that message well."

Farmers Plant Different Crops
Read the story. Click the "LISTEN" button at the bottom of the page to hear the story. When you are done, click the "NEXT" button.
Some farmers are having a hard time picking their crops. There are not enough workers to help them with the harvest.
One farmer used to grow peaches, but will soon switch to growing almonds. Peaches require more labor to harvest. They are fragile, and must be picked by hand. Machines would damage the ripe peaches. Then the farmer could not sell them. He is using a bulldozer to remove his peach trees. Then he will plant almond trees in their place.
Almonds are harvested differently. It does not take as many workers to pick them because a machine shakes the almond trees. The almonds fall on the ground and then are gathered up. The farmer does not have to hire many workers to pick the almonds off the trees.
Some farmers think there are two reasons why there is a shortage of farm workers. One reason is that there are a lot of construction jobs in the area. These jobs pay higher wages. Many workers are taking construction jobs instead of picking fruit.
Another reason is that it has become more difficult to cross the border from Mexico into California. Many farm workers come from Mexico. Fewer are able to cross the border in order to work on the fruit farms.
One solution might be to allow Mexican workers to work here as guests. That would help them to provide for their family and help farmers harvest their crops.
Farmers say that unless things change, more produce will come from other countries. This is because labor is cheaper in other nations than it is in the United States.

Easy to order, communication from the company was amazing and arrived very quickly. I'm very impressed with this company and would recommend them to everyone.
Good and easy website to negotiate. Very efficient delivery service. Kept well informed. This was excellent as we live in the UK and were sending a small Christmas gift to our Granddaughter on the Gold Coast! Quality toy and excellent service. Thank you.
Very impressed!! My order arrived in a couple of days and I was kept up to date with tracking. Fantastic quality of the products also - My 1 year old has been having a great time with his musical instruments and wooden fire engine! A great experience overall and I will definitely be using My Wooden Toys again! Thank you!
Doug and the Elves, Thank you for the well packaged toys that I've just received very promptly following my order. I was impressed with the quality of the products. The paintwork on the toys compared to other brands should be appealing for young children 2+ yrs . No doubt the future engagement of these toys should give hours/years of enjoyment.
Always great quality kids love the toys!!! Thanks
Thanks for the prompt delivery of my recent purchase. Thanks again for your great customer service. Thrilled.
I was very impressed with the quality of each of the toys. But most importantly I was so impressed with the dispatch and delivery of the products. It was very important to receive the toys quickly as some of them were for my grand daughters birthday which was 2 days after they arrived. Thank you and I will definitely recommend and buy again.
Thank you for your excellent service delivery to the Gold Coast on both my recent orders were less than a week. Everything is packaged securely, no dented parcels. Goods were exactly as described. I have two lucky grandsons
Just received my order and I am very happy with everything, will definitely be ordering more for my grandchildren for Xmas and birthdays
So happy with my order which was delivered promptly...another Christmas gift tucked away
Fantastic quality and a huge range of toys for all ages.
Great service. Quick delivery. Toys are great quality. Will definitely be purchasing again. Very happy. Thank-you.

As Israel's agriculture department begins preparations for a vast swarm of locusts coming from Egypt, famed Israeli Chef Moshe Basson has begun Israelis how to make locust souffle.
That's right, Israelis are being told to eat their way through the locust plague.
Basson, a chef who specializes in "biblical cuisine" at his restaurant in Jerusalem, appeared on a popular Israeli morning show to give some tips and tricks eat locusts, Ha'aretz reports.
Basson isn't the ony one giving culinary advice either.
Rabbi Natan Slifkin wrote a piece for The Times of Israel this weekend encouraging Jews to eat the bugs, pointing out they are kosher.
"I have eaten locusts on several occasions," Rabbi Slifkin writes. "They do not require a special form of slaughter, and one usually kills them by dropping them into boiling water. They can be cooked in a variety of ways - lacking any particular culinary skills, I usually just fry them with oil and some spices."
They're actually a good snack, Rabbi Slifkin claims. "It's not the taste that is distinctive," he writes, "so much as the tactile experience of eating a bug - crunchy on the outside with a chewy center!"
Rabbi Slifkin says that the locust, the most common in that region, would be kosher as, historically, if the bugs had eaten all the crops, the affected Jews would have eaten the bugs.

Wheat is selling for $8.49 a bushel, milo is $6.94, corn is $7.28, and soybeans $16.29 per bushel on the worldwide commodities market, Grain Coordinator Dick Tippin of Hillsboro Cooperative and Grain supply reported Thursday.
Tippin said these are good prices driven by a continuing demand. There were drought conditions worldwide with the Russian and Ukraine wheat production being affected. He expects prices will continue to stay high unless the economy of China and other large countries falters.
However, Marion County producers will not experience a boon because they are bringing in fewer bushels per acre than were previously projected. Tippin used corn as an example. Originally, producers were predicted to bring in 150 bushels per acre, the U.S. average is 100 to 120. The Marion County figure is closer to 50 to 100 bushels per acre.
Soybeans have fared much better. Tippin said beans are podding after recent rains. The yields should be closer to those predicted, but still lower. Tippin expects many producers will file insurance claims for corn and soybeans this year.
For some producers it will be the second year in a row to file claims. Tippin said the effect of this is the insurance payments may decrease over time because they are figured using base yield averaged per acre.

All right, not all the bags here are new (with 'new' we mean that it hasn't been shown on our blog). If you've been following our blog, then it's utterly impossible that you've missed the article: 'Chanel Spring Summer 2015 Runway Bag Collection'. And if you haven't done so, please… be our guest:
And for those that have watched every single image, I know, I know. I feel the same as you do, my head screamed: 'Chanel, Where Are The Bags?'
But to be honest, I am also very excited at the same time, because we know that Chanel will 'never' (ever) let us down. They are going to drop the bomb, you know, the box with all the beautiful handbags that makes us drool. But they just don't want to show us, not yet.
So we need to wait.
But anyways, here are a couple previews of what you can expect in the Chanel Spring Summer 2015 Bag Collection.
First of all, the clutch bags with chain. No they are not the boy bricks, nor are they the Lego Clutches, but they are boxy and quite simple in design. Printed with quotes like 'Ladies First' or 'Make Fashion Not War', they are the exact same clutches that you've spotted on the runway.
Now here's something interesting, a new Chanel Flap Bag, It looks like it has been wrapped around, completely made in white and golden hardware. Hmm, what is your opinion?
Let us know what you think?

The information technology and IT-enabled services sectors are expected to grow 12-14 per cent and clock export revenues of $84-87 billion in the next fiscal, industry body Nasscom said on Tuesday.
"Increase in global technology spending and opportunities created through adoption of disruptive technologies are expected to propel growth in FY'14.
"Nasscom expects the industry to clock export revenues of $84-87 billion maintaining a growth rate of 12-14 per cent," the National Association of Software and Services Companies (Nasscom) said in a statement.
Domestic revenues, on the other hand, are expected to grow at 13-15 per cent to reach Rs 1.18-Rs 1.20 lakh crore, it added.
"The Indian IT-BPM industry has demonstrated resilience and agility in the past year. Technology has today become an integral enabler for growth across all sectors and the industry is continuously evolving and innovating to emerge as a strategic partner to its customers," Nasscom Chairman N Chandrasekaran said.
Exports from the industry, which counts the US and Europe as its biggest markets, were estimated to have grown 10.2 per cent to $75.8 billion in FY'13.
Given the economic uncertainty, Nasscom had predicted growth in the sector to be between 11-14 per cent and later said only the lower end of the target would be met.
The domestic market witnessed annual growth rate of 14.1 per cent taking revenues to over Rs 1.04 lakh crore.
"FY2012-13 can be characterised as the year of rapid transition and transformation, leading the industry into expanding into newer verticals and geographies, attracting new customer segments, and transforming from technology partners to strategic business partners," Nasscom said.
The Indian IT-BPM sector continued to be one of the largest employers in the country directly employing nearly three million professionals, adding over 180,000 employees.
While the first $100 billion landmark can be attributed to the cost and quality advantage, the next $100 billion will be a combination of higher-value services and increasing non-linear growth, Nasscom said.
"To sustain this growth, Indian IT-BPM industry is focusing on greater efficiencies, verticalised structures, geographical presence, IP based solutions, domain and increased collaboration across all stakeholders," it said.

(Everything written here should not be taken seriously... seriously)
Bear in mind, I felt like letting off some steam so I typed up some random thoughts. That gave me an idea! See... I found it fun, typing up the stuff that just pops into my head. I decided to write an erotic-version of it!
In other words, this story is not really a story, but rather the mindless ramblings of a talentless hack. I'm too lazy to see if this had already been done, so chances are... this is an unoriginal erotica. It's erotica as long as I mentioned this... right? Er... >_>
A hot girl wearing a red tank-top and a brown mini-skirt was standing in a phone booth. Her brown hair cascaded down her ample breasts as she breathed heavily into the receiver. She wore five inch heels, which she was not used to at all. Her grassy green eyes flickered from side to side as she watched people pass her by. Sweat was pouring down her soft and supple skin as she waited in anticipation for her next orders.
"Get undressed."
The girl's heart stopped at those two words. Get undressed while in public? She paused for a second, then replied, "yes, master."
She looked around her and noticed that there were still people passing by. She gulped, then took three deep breaths. She began by kicking off her heels as quickly as possible.
She paused again.
One pair of eyes were on her.
She took off her tank top.
Three pairs of eyes were on her.
As she breathed heavily and deeply into the reciever, she dropped her tanktop onto the pavement below her. She cupped her left breast and felt her heart just trying to hammer right through. The red-head knew it was useless and against her master's wishes to cover herself. She dropped her left hand and exposed her breasts.
Ten pairs of eyes were on her.
She shivered a bit for she could feel more eyes were upon her bare skin. She kept her head down and looked towards the ground. She unbuttoned her mini-skirt and watched as it pooled around her feet. She stepped out of them and used her right foot to slide it off to the side.
Twenty pairs of eyes were on her.
Now all that was left was her panties. She shuddered as a cold chill ran down her spine. A visible wet spot was on the crotch of her cotton panties. She touched it with her middle finger and smiled. She knew that she would enjoy this act of exhibition. She looked up and stared into the eyes of her audience.
Fifty pairs of eyes were on her.
She slipped out of her panties and smiled for the crowd as she exposed herself to the world.
"Are you undressed?" The voice again.
"Yes, Master. I'm now naked and willing to please you in any way," the nude girl replied.
"Good. Now lie down on your bed."
"Um... Master? I'm not in my room. I'm calling from a payphone."
"Wha... what?"
"I'm calling from a payphone. I'm nude and in public right now."
"What the..."
Let's end the story right here so that I can do what I've originally set out to do! Randomness onwards! E = MC Hammer should wear his parachute pants in public again! Stars are actually suns that are far away. Wait... was it the other way around? Two naked girls in college are in the shower making out. A girl with green haired screamed as Elmo fucked her with a bible. No... not that Elmo! I'm talking about the one from Sesame Street. Green eggs and ham is the secret to making an up-tight girl orgasm multiple times!
Why should the cucumber get all the glory as a sex-toy? An egg-plant cries as it was betrayed by its owner, a blonde beauty, who chose the cucumber for anal masturbation. A dog runs around in the yard, barking about how taxes should be reduced and how he has a bigger penis than the average human male. A librarian made out with a hermaphrodite in the children's section. Later that night, a cat-burgler broke into the library and later revealed that she was an asian beauty with a 24/7 sex-drive. Snoopy joined in later and the four of them had an orgy... of sorts.
Right... now would be a good time for another random erotic story about two girls making love in the shower room! Er... maybe not the shower room. Instead, let's make it the wine celler of a local steakhouse.
"Oh... Mindy... I think... I think I'm..."
"Shh... I know. There's no need for words," Mindy replied as she pressed her lips against Cindy's. They were both blondes with blue eyes and large breasts. They were very similar in appearance to the point that they were often mistaken for sisters. They continued swirling their tongues against each other as they slowly undressed themselves.
Within seconds, they were both naked and lying down on the floor of the wine celler. Their clothes were everything for they were in a hurry to see each other in all their glory. A bra hung down from the neck of one of the wine bottles. Both panties were ripped off and probably could not be worn again.
"Oh... Cindy... you have such nice breasts!" Mindy exclaimed as she sucked on Cindy's left nipple with the lust of a river nymph. Cindy simply moaned with pleasure she felt the other girl swirl her tongue around the areola. Mindy continued her dominance over her lover by gropping the breasts with more force. As she turned her tongue's attention on then neck, her left hand slipped down to the pussy.
"Oh... my... god..." Cindy gasped as she felt fingers penetrate her lower lips. She rocked her hips as she felt her lover probe her most intimate orifice.
"Oh my... already wet," Mindy lifted her left hand to reveal the sticky substance on her fingers. She licked her fingers twice, then stuck them into Cindy's mouth. Cindy gladly accepted the fingers and sucked off her own juices. Mindy's eyes gleamed with lust as she lowered her head and said, "time to kick things up a notch."
"Wha... oh! Mindy... that's... my... you're licking it," Cindy gasped out between breathes as she felt Mindy's pink organ explore her folds. She shuddered with pleasure once she felt the tongue against her clit. She shivered and writhed on the floor as Mindy continued her primal assault.
"Don't hold back, just let go," Mindy smirked as she continued sucking and licking Cindy's clitoris. She held onto her lover's hips with both hands and rubbed her aching pussy against the floor at the same time. The wooden floor was stained with the pussy juice of both girls.
"I'M COOOOMMMMMMIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!" Cindy screamed as she felt herself climax. Her pussy squeezed and every muscle in her body tightened. Wave after wave of orgasm hit her as Mindy continued licking instead of stopping.
Why must some authors insist that their characters scream phrases like that when they're coming? Ritalin is your friend! It lets you have three times as much sex, you know! You know what I want to know? Did the exhibitionist girl in the phone booth have red hair or brown hair? I, for one, do not remember at all! Maybe it was one side red and one side brown. Maybe it was brown with red streaks... or the other way around!
Three girls in a tub starting licking each other's pussies. A cat joined in three minutes later, then went away as soon as it remember it hated water. A hot girl looked so intimidating that five guys decided to hit on her at once. They all became her sex-slaves the very next day. Should a teacher be allowed to date a student? They seem to get along pretty well when they have sex in the empty classroom. God must be a comedian and Satan a critic. Was it the other way around? Nah... God must be the comedian. The proof is in the cheerios!
Light bulb!
What I need right now is a new character. A new character to represent the what's left of my sanity. That way, no matter how out of whack my brain becomes, I'll always have just a bit of sanity left.
"So now I'm a beaver... what the fuck?" The newly created beaver grumbled. He slapped his tail against the floor to test out his new body. "Why the hell would you make me a beaver?"
Why not? It's fun! Now let's talk about names. How about Beaver Boy?
"Screw you," Beaver Boy replied angrily.
"Go to hell," Frank growled as he glared at me with killer eyes.
"Just do the world a favour and kill yourself!" Gordo shouted as he flipped me off.
Fine... how about Chippy?
"Damn you and your abuse of your name-changing ability!" Chippy turned his back towards me and crossed his arms.
Zeed it is, then!
"Meh..." Zeed waved a hand and continued facing his back towards me.
Erotica onwards!
"Oh... Mindy..." Cindy continued moaning with pleasure as wine was poured over her breasts. The purple alcohol streamed down along her nipples and towards her naval. She rubbed the sticky liquid all over herself as she moaned with ecstasy. Her right hand reached down to fondle her womanhood, mixing up her own juices with the wine.
"Here comes the best part," Mindy grinned mischeviously as she took out a bottle of champagne. She used one hand to shake the bottle as much as she could while she used the other hand to push against Cindy's side. "Roll over, girl. This one's going in your ass."
Cindy's eyes widened at those words as she rolled over for her lover. She tucked her knees in and pushed out her ass for Mindy. She heard the sound of uncorking of the champagne bottle. Half a second later, the champagne was rushing along her anal passage and into her bowels. The feeling was incredible!
Did you enjoy that, Zeed?
"How can I went you forgot to give me any genitilia whatsoever? I'm not even sure if I'm a guy or a girl!" Zeed complained.
Well... that's just too fucking bad, Zeed.
Hopefully, you'll never see a part two come out any time soon if ever! If it does come out... it'll probably have something like this:
"Oh... Rush! Oh..." A significantly older Roll (afterall, don't want any underage girls in here :p) moaned with pleasure as she laid her back against the wall and allowed the robotic dog to lick her exposed artificial pussy. She rocked her hips and bit her lower lip as she felt an orgasm approach.
End of part 1 of hopefully 1!

Dear AllStarHealth,
I need advice, please. I am trying to lose about 25 lbs. I do cardio 3 days a week and weights 3 days week. My friend was saying Casein protein was better than Whey protein powder for losing weight. When I went and read up on it, everyone seems to say whey is better because it absorbs faster. Is that true and does it make a difference which one I use?
Lisa Connors,
Springfield, MO
Dear Lisa,
It's true that whey absorbs faster than casein protein, that's the gist of it, but it's not necessarily better for that reason. In fact, while people used to just use one type of protein powder, it's very common now to see people using 2 or even 3 types to take advantage of the dfferences. They're just more popular now than ever.
In general, whey is used anytime you want a fast-absorbing protein, not necessarily one that's going to fill you up for a long time or sustain growth while you sleep. So for most people, whey is best for good for a breakfast shake, a preworkout shake, or post-workout shake.
