Second half comeback falls short
TRENTON, MO - The MCC Tiger Women's Basketball team (8-15, 3-7) made a strong push in the second half to come within 5 points with four minutes remaining, but strong shooting from the charity strike by the Pirates would keep the Tigers from getting any closer falling 78-62.
Sophomore forward Mady Van Metre (Marshalltown, IA) once again led the Tigers offensively, scoring a team and season high 26 points. Sophomore Shakeria Slade (Milwaukee, WI) put up 11 points of her own, and collected 6 rebounds for the Tigers. Freshman Ashley Salgado (Ottumwa, IA) led the Tigers on the glass with 9 boards.
The Tigers will return home playing their second of three games this week, as they face conference opponent Iowa Central Community College on Wednesday. Game time against the Tritons is scheduled for 5:00 pm, with a men's game to follow.

Field Focus: Farmers Feed Refugees in Rwanda
USAID's Local Purchase Program Saves Money and Time
March 2014
Ed. note: This article, courtesy of USAID, illustrates some of the positive effects that reforms to U.S. food aid would have. Bread's 2014 Offering of Letters focuses on these smart reforms as a way of ending hunger.
Rwanda, located in the heart of central Africa, has experienced remarkable progress in food security and nutrition in the last several years. According to a 2011 survey, between 2009 and 2011, levels of stunting among children dropped from 52 percent to 42 percent and levels of underweight children from 16 percent to 13.8 percent.
However, despite these improvements, the Rwandan people still experience high rates of poverty and malnutrition — a situation further exacerbated by the more than 67,000 refugees who now reside within Rwanda's borders. These refugees come primarily from neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), fleeing the continuous conflict and violence plaguing the east.
With no access to land for cultivation and limited livelihood opportunities, refugees depend entirely on humanitarian food assistance to meet their basic food needs. Extremely vulnerable groups must rely heavily on supplementary food to stave off malnutrition.
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the World Food Program (WFP) are working together on a program that feeds the large refugee population while supporting smallholder farmers within Rwanda. With cash support from USAID, WFP purchases cereals and pulses from Rwandan smallholder farmers for the refugee population. This program helps farmers increase their food production and living standards while feeding refugees in need of emergency assistance. Between December 2011 and December 2012, USAID and WFP fed more than 72,000 people in Rwanda, including 61,600 refugees.
Bernadette Furaha is one of the farmers from Kirehe district in the Eastern province of Rwanda whose maize was bought by WFP. "I was very poor, with no shelter and no support," she said.
Furaha had a small plot of land and started cultivating it, but she had no access to a market and did not know how to manage post-harvest staple crops. With the support of USAID and WFP, she learned how to manage her produce after harvest, and as a result of her improved maize quality, she was able to sell it to WFP and to traders. Thanks to the support she received from WFP and USAID, she has constructed an iron-roofed house, bought a cow, and enrolled all of her children in school. She pays medical insurance for herself and her four children, and they have enough food at home for the family and extra income from selling crops on the market.
Agnes Ingabire Mutoni is a 31-year-old refugee with six children. "My youngest child, Joselyne Mushimire, suffered from malnutrition because we had travelled a long distance from Rutshuru in eastern DRC to Rwanda fleeing fighting in the area," she said. "I arrived at Nkamira transit center and transferred to Kigeme camp, where I received a monthly food ration and super cereal [a fortified food] from WFP. My lovely child recovered from malnutrition after a few months of eating the nutritious food."
These programs have also made providing aid more efficient. By purchasing the food locally, USAID and WFP are able to save considerable time and money. Because the food did not need to be shipped from overseas, the program saved more than $240 per metric ton on corn and $900 per metric ton on beans. Additionally, this food was distributed to refugees within two months of purchase, compared to an average of three to six months for food coming from the United States.
Out of a difficult situation, USAID and WFP were able to help refugees and farmers alike through one innovative and efficient program.

ThermaBot, the Heat Seeking Robot
The idea behind ThermaBot was to build a robot that could sense a persons heat source and then use this to follow them around a room without bumping into them by using a few of our modules. The modules we used were a TPA81, 2 SRF08's an RD02 and an LCD03 all controlled using a PIC18F4410.
The TPA81 is mounted on the front of the robot so that the 8 pixel reading runs horizontally across the front of its path of travel, mounting the TPA81 like this we were able to detect when a heat source was present and also where the heat source is positioned in front of it. Using this data we are able to use the RD02 to steer towards the heat source as it moves. The SRF08's are also mounted on the front and are used to detect the distance to the object that it is following, when the this distance falls below a set limit the robot stops driving forward and instead rotates on the spot to face the heat source as it moves until the object moves away again. The LCD03 is used to display readings from the TPA81 and SRF08's. All communication with these modules is done on the i2c bus, you can find more information about the I2C bus in our I2C tutorial. Here is how these modules are connected:
The software
ThermaBot is controlled by a PIC18f4410 using a C program written for Microchip's PICC18 Compiler. Here I will detail some of the functions used to control ThermaBots behavior.
Get threshold
This function is run only once at the start of the program, it calculates the threshold values for each pixel of the TPA81 by taking an average of 16 readings while rotating and adding 2 to them. Anything above this threshold value is considered to be a heat source. After this function has finished the program falls into a continuous loop that controls ThermaBots behavior
Start range
This function is used to start an SRF08 taking a ranging, putting a value of 0x00 into this function causes all SRF08 modules on the bus to start a ranging at the same time.
Set timer
This is used to set an internal timer on the PIC18 running. The value passes to this function is used to set the high and low bytes of the timer giving us the option of creating longer or shorter timer counts. The timers roll over flag is then set to 0, when a set time has elapsed this will then be set to 1 automatically. This timer is set for 70ms which is how long it takes for an SRF08 to perform a ranging, while this timer is running we can perform other processes and wait for this time to elapse if it hasn't already.
Get temperature
This gets the temperature readings from each of the TPA81's pixels and stores them in a data array.
Is there heat
Scans through the array containing the temperature readings, If there is a temperature detected above the threshold but below the upper threshold then a heat source has been detected and the function returns 1. If no heat source was detected then 0 is returned.
Peak heat
This finds the peak value of the array holding the temperature readings and then returns its position, this is the peak of the heat source detected and will be the pixel that will be steered towards.
Is there object
Checks the range data from the SRF08's against a threshold distance of 30cm, if one of the ranges is below this value then 1 is returned otherwise a 0 is returned.
Drive to heat
This function is used to drive towards a heat source at a distance and turn towards it as it moves. The value of peakHeat() is used to determine if ThermaBot should steer left, steer right or drive straight forward. The further left or right from the center the heat source is will also make it turn faster or slower to keep up with the movement.
Turn with heat
As drive to heat except instead of driving towards a heat source is stays stationary and rotates on the spot to face it.
Wait for timer
Waits for the timers roll over flag to be set to 1 if it has not already, this gives the range finders enough time to complete a ranging.
Get SRF data
This function gets the range data from the SRF08's.
Flow of the program
At start up the program will pause for a moment to let everything power up and then it will call getThreshold() to calculate the threshold temperature of each pixel, after this it falls into a continuous loop that controls ThermaBots behavior. First the SRF08's are commanded to start a ranging session and an internal timer is set for 70ms and started. 70ms is how long the SRF08 takes to perform a ranging and while this timer is running we can process other functions before reading data back from the rangers, this is to speed up the flow of the program. Next we get the temperature readings and check it to see if a heat source has been found and where the peak on this heat source is in the TPA81's data. If a heat source has been found then the function isThereHeat() will return 1. The results from the last ranging session are then processed and if an object is detected then the function isThereObject() will return 1. Next the program uses the output from isThereHeat() and isthereObject to decide what action to take. If there is a heat source detected but no object is detected then driveToHeat() is performed and ThermaBot will start to drive towards a heat source. If a heat source is detected and an object is detected close up then the function turnWithHeat() is called and ThermaBot will rotate to face the object. If no heat source is detected then the motors are stopped whether there is a object up close or not. After these functions have been processed we wait for the timer to finish, this insures that we do not try to read range data back from the SRF08 before a ranging has completed and get inaccurate results. Once the timer has expired we grab the range data from the SRF08's and can go back and repeat the process.
ThermaBot will quite happily follow us round the room but as the TPA81 has a FOV of 41° it is possible to move too fast and your heat source to be lost, in this instance ThermaBot will stop and wait for you to come back for it.

IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Police said an Iowa City man led police on a 20-minute chase, reaching speeds of 90 mph.
According to Johnson County Sheriff's Office reports, 26-year-old Derek M. Dawson was behind the wheel of a 2010 Dodge Caravan at 4:54 p.m. Sunday.
Johnson County Sheriff Lonny Pulkrabek said a deputy attempted to pull over Dawson for failing to stop at a stop sign at the intersection of South Riverside Drive and Rupert Road. Dawson didn't pull over right away and the pursuit started off at low speeds, Pulkrabek said.
"As it continued on, then the driver started driving more aggressive and recklessly," Pulkrabek said.
Police said Dawson fled from multiple county and Iowa City police squad cars for 20 minutes and reached speeds of 90 mph. Dawson "displayed exceptionally poor driving skills and decisions," made a number of traffic infractions and put many people in harm's way during the pursuit, police said.
Pulkrabek said the deputy opted to continue the pursuit out of concerns the Dawson was operating under the influence or could hurt someone with his driving.
Police said Dawson tried to hit a parked Iowa City police squad car at the intersection of Highway 6 and Scott Boulevard in Iowa City. He avoided stop sticks deployed by police until one finally took out a tire, Pulkrabek said.
When Dawson finally came to a stop at the intersection of Whispering Meadow Drive and Whispering Prairie Avenue in Iowa City, he refused to get out of the vehicle. Pulkrabek said officers had to break out the windows of the Caravan and forcibly removed Dawson.
Dawson was driving under multiple suspensions, police said. His license is both revoked and barred, police said.
After searching his vehicle, police said they found a small amount of marijuana in a baggie in the driver's side door.
Dawson faces charges of eluding, assault on police officers with a weapon, driving while revoked, driving while barred - habitual offender, possession of a controlled substance - third or subsequent offense and interference with official acts.

Help! Drill/modify an oil filter for a pressure gauge sender?

Help! Drill/modify an oil filter for a pressure gauge sender?
Hi all,
I'm looking to fit an oil pressure gauge to my 950. After a chat with a KTM contact of mine, I arranged an order of a special oil filter cover with a sender line build in, apparently used on the rally bikes. Real neat piece of kit, except as you can see below (new cover on the left, stock on the right), the inside of the cover has a proud section of tube that looks like it should slot into an oil filter....except as you can see, the 950 normal filter has no hole. As such, the cover won't bolt on.
My hairbrained scheme is:
salvage the rubber sealing ring from the old filter (which fits snugly onto the internal pipe from the new cover),
drill a hole in the sealed metal end of the new filter
install the sealing ring on that hole (fluid-tight with silicone sealant or something), making a 'straight-through passage to the sender line, allowing the new cover to fit on and 'plug in' to the oil system.
Assuming I seal the rubber ring properly, I can't see how this allowing dirty oil to mix with clean, and being right after the pump, it should give a good pressure reading, yes?
But if this is a terrible idea and someone can see any impending disasters (dashboard oil volcanoes?) with this plan, I'm all ears.
And thankyou in advance, but I do know about the other oil sender fitting locations, but I've decided to go with this one.

China's decision to expand the functionality of its satellite navigation network could undermine the economics of Europe's nascent Galileo system, according to sources close to the project.
Until now, experts believed that China's "Beidou" navigation system - a 35-satellite constellation - would only be used by its armed forces. This explained China's decision to invest 200 million in Europe's 2.5 billion Galileo programme.
But things appear to have changed in Beijing. On 2 November, the country's official news agency Xinhua reported that Beidou would, from 2008, begin providing an "open" level of service, with 10-metre accuracy, in addition to its "authorised", encrypted military service.
Precisely how open this 10-metre service will be, remains unclear, but the Xinhua report implied that it would be available free to all Chinese citizens and to other countries whose governments strike a deal to use the signal in satellite navigation devices.
Commercial plans
If this is true, it could be a big problem for the Galileo consortium, which had hoped to recoup part of its 2.5 billion investment in Galileo by selling receivers and commercial signal subscriptions in China.
"But if Beidou offers a free non-military service inside China then that idea goes out of the window," says a source close to the Galileo project, who spoke on condition of anonymity, due to the geopolitical sensitivity of the issue.
It is not clear whether there are sufficient frequencies for Beidou to be used globally. But new agreements may be needed to ensure receivers are compatible with all three navigation standards: Galileo, the US-run Global Positioning System, and Beidou. "We would have to have a complete reworking of the cooperative agreements that the Galileo consortium has struck with China," the source adds.
Government pressure
It does not look good for Galileo. Analysts in the US think Beidou's first two geostationary satellites may already be used for commercial purposes. "The People's Liberation Army is using the system, but there have been some interesting local press reports out of China recently saying that some private companies have been pressured into using Beidou too," says Dean Cheng of the CNA Corporation, a think tank in Alexandria, Virginia, US.
"The government is trying to work out how to make money from the system," he told New Scientist. "So a freight firm, for instance, might be persuaded to use Beidou if it wants a trucking contract, say."
Cheng believes a number of factors are fuelling China's move to a domestic satellite navigation network - its waning influence as Galileo moves into a commercial deployment phase, worries about how much say China will have on the way the Galileo signal is coded, and workshare' issues: emerging Sino-European arguments over, for instance, satellite launch contracts.
National initiatives
Officially, however, the European Commission (EC) says it does not expect China's plan to impact on Galileo. "The EU's initiative on Galileo has spurred many nations to consider new satellite navigation initiatives," says Michele Cercone, EC spokesperson for satellite navigation issues. "In the developing global satellite navigation market there will be place for all these initiatives. We are confident that Galileo will be able to win its rightful place."
But the irony in China's move was not lost on Michael Shaw, from the US government's National Space-based Positioning, Navigation and Timing Coordination Office in Washington DC. "Frankly, China's behaviour towards Europe is not so different to how Europe behaved with us when GPS was the only game in town a decade ago," Shaw says.

Deidre Darks Delightful Dolls will debut at the Boston Comic Con 2015 July 31st - August 2nd CONTINUE
Goldilocks In ZombieLand #3 is coming Augusy 2015 look for it at Stockton 2015 and Alamo City Comic Con 2015 CONTINUE
Comic Book Divas Publishing offes the Deidre Dark\'s Delightful Dolls Coup De Grace Boston Comic Con Limited Edition Variant Cover. CONTINUE
Some may say that a stake has been driven into vampires, they have been over exposed and been done to death; there are no longer any original stories to be told; but Comic Book Divas is going to give the vampire lore and the Dracula legend a transfusion starting in 2013 with the "Harker And Helsing" comic book series.
"Harker And Helsing" brings together many elements from the Dracula legend as it combines pieces from the novel, movies and the Vlad Tepes lore; the comic will featire new characters and will also include some of the original characters from Dracula however with a whole new twist. Dracula and vampire fans will be introduced to a mixture of old and new faces in the comic book series, and they will be immersed in the world of Steampunk; combines the Victoria era with the future, with many of the vehicles, weapons, and gadgets running on steam and mechanical devices.
When fans read "Harker And Helsing" they will see some very cool and unusual vehicles, gadgets, and weapons that only the steampunk world can offer and that will make this comic a step apart from your average vampire storyline.
The "Harker And Helsing" comic book takes place a year after Bram Stoker's telling of the events that occurred in his novel "Dracula"; we find "Abigail Von Helsing" the granddaughter of Abraham Von Helsing in London, reminiscing about the dark days involving Dracula, her grandfather, and the Harker's; Bram Stoker romanticized the events, there was no happy ending, it all ended in dark tragedy even after the death of the prince of darkness.
Abigail is not only on a mission to continue her grandfather's work to hunt down Dracula's disciples and other creatures of the night, but also find her grandfather's killer and carry out his last request to find the true victim in this dark story Mina Harker was never freed from Dracula even after his death. Dracula's blood still flowed through Mina's veins; Abraham Von Helsing and Jonathan Harker worked tirelessly to cure her blood thirst but during a fit of range in blood lust after an argument over Mina's child Quincey she disappeared not to be seen again.
While in White Chapel, Abigail will find the vampiric Mina Harker living in squallier in self-appointed exile. After nursing Mina back to health and getting her blood thirst under control, the two learn that they are both on the same paths but Mina Harker has startling information about not only Abraham Von Helsing's death but about the truth about the events surrounding Dracula,
Abigail will be surprised that Dracula was only a pawn and the true villain will shock will enrage her.
"Harker And Helsing" features not only two iconic actresses but also icons in horror; portraying the intellectual but resourceful "Abigail Von Helsing" is Amanda Wyss; Amanda has been in such classic and iconic movies as Fast Times At Ridgemont High as Lisa, the original A Nightmare On Elm Street as Tina, Silverado as Phoebe; and portraying the seductive but dangerous Mina Harker is Brinke Stevens, Brinke Stevens has been in such classic B-Movies as The Slumber Party Massacre as Linda, Sorority Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-A-Rama, Repligator as Taffy, and Sigma Die as Mrs. Angleman.
Doing the art work for "Harker And Helsing" is Alferd Trujillo, Alfred has worked with such companies as Zenescope on the Grimm Fairy Tales ,Myths And Legends, and is also working on his own comic book entitled Project Shadows. Alfred is bringing both a very gothic look to "Harker And Helsing" but also bring a very sexy look to the characters and the comic; please tak a moment to view the sneak peek art work of "Abigail Von Helsing" and Mina Harker.
Joining Alfred is Colorist Milen Paranov has worked with such companies as DC Comics, and Zenescope; and we are looking forward to seeing his work on "Harker And Helsing"; both Alfred and Milen are sure to bring all the "Harker and Helsing" action to life.
While "Harker And Helsing" #1 won't be available until 2013, be sure to watch for updates and more sneak peaks of artwork and look for promo cards and postcards at the Dallas Fan Days in October..

(ABC 6 News) -- It was a "cold case" that led to an arrest and trial based on DNA evidence.
On July 20th, 1994 John Snyder, senior called mason city police to report that his 20-month-old son was missing.
The next day, the body of John Snyder, Jr. was found in Willow Creek, not far from his home.
"We tried to present the best evidence we had and show the jury there was sufficient evidence to convict the defendant," said assistant Iowa attorney general Douglas Hammerand.
A year ago, Michael Cisneros was arrested and charged with the boy's death.
And after deliberating for less than three hours on Monday, an eight-man, four-woman jury found Michael Cisneros not guilty of first-degree murder.
"It can be difficult, but we learn to accept that decision because we believe in the jury system," said Hamemrand.
Cisneros became a suspect when his DNA matched the DNA in blood found on the toddler's pajama bottoms near where the boy's body was found Mason City.
"The defense was arguing there's no evidence that his DNA on the pajama bottoms connected him to the murder," Hammerand told us.
Defense attorneys claimed Michael Cisneros had cut his hand the day John Snyder, junior disappeared, and while walking near Willow Creek had stopped to wipe his hand on something he'd found on the ground. That something happened to be the boy's pajama bottoms.
"That would be the state's impression with a not guilty verdict that would indicate there was not enough there to convince them beyond a reasonable doubt," Hammerand said.
Michael Cisneros was released from custody on Tuesday morning, one year and two days after he was arrested for the murder of John Snyder, Jr., and one day after he was found not guilty.

WASHINGTON—Venerated human rights advocate, Annette Lantos, was ecstatic after seeing Shen Yun at the Kennedy Center in DC on Tuesday, for her 5th time.
"[I] never miss it—I don't think I've ever missed a single show," she said. "I think this is one of the best that I have seen. It was outstanding. Every act was just so perfect."
Ms. Lantos is chairman of the Lantos Foundation for Human Rights and Justice and wife of the late congressman Tom Lantos. Mr. Lantos was the only holocaust survivor to serve in Congress, according to the Lantos Foundation website. Ms. Lantos was in attendance with her daughter and great granddaughter, who were equally excited about the show.
Shen Yun, based in New York, travels around the world with one mission—to revive the 5,000 years of ancient Chinese culture.
According to the Shen Yun website: "Through the universal language of music and dance, Shen Yun weaves a wondrous tapestry of heavenly realms, ancient legends and heroic modern-day epics. Shen Yun presents themes of compassion and courage with stunning beauty and tremendous energy, leaving audiences uplifted and inspired."
The performance takes the audience from the dawn of the civilization to present day China. Several dances depict the current persecution of the popular mediation practice Falun Gong under the ruling communist regime.
The practice, which is guided by the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance, "has helped over a hundred million Chinese people understand and return to the essence of traditional Chinese culture—Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist schools of thought," according to Shen Yun's website.
Yet the communist regime began persecuting the practice in 1999 and hasn't stopped.
The dances depicting the situation connected with Ms. Lantos.
"I think it's a wonderful way of showing something of the essence of what Falun Gong is, and the beauty and the meaning that every one of these acts have, I think really communicates itself to the audience," she said
The artists of Shen Yun convey the culture very well, said Ms. Lantos.
"I definitely feel that it's a wonderful bridge to the Chinese culture," she said. "It's a wonderful way of deeper understanding."

Renault to launch cars in India
Renault is an internationally acclaimed car producing company and had launched their cars in India in 2005. Once the company had launched their cars they wanted to set a benchmark. They went into collaboration with Mahindra and built the Mahindra-Renault LOGAN. They tried to find their own feet in the markets of India and finally they are now intent on launching more cars in the Indian markets. In India maximum passenger cars today range between 2lakhs to 5lakhs and now Renault has come up with the idea of launching a car within a budget of RS 4lakh. By doing so they are more likely to get more customers from the middle class families. They have launched the SUV, a sedan and a hatchback. They have planned to launch a total of five new cars in India.
Expansion plans for Renault in India
Renault has planned to launch all five cars by the end of this year. Not only that they have a plan of opening about 100 outlets in India. They want to expand their business. They already have cars above the 4lakh mark but now they want to make cars below the 4lakh mark. Renault being an internationally known company it will not be a very difficult task for them. They will be looking forward to the sale of about 1lakh cars by the 2013-2014 business years. The company has declared their views of expansion in India. They want to get into the Indian markets. By launching a car in the 4lakh category it will make their work easier and also they can increase global sales.

Officials at the state DEP have announced their approval of the purchase of nearly 200 homes in Woodbridge under the Superstorm Sandy Blue Acres program. It's goal is to buy homes ravaged by floodwaters from Sandy - and other storms - to create a natural buffer, and protection against future storms. The first home to close in Woodbridge was on Crampton Avenue for $228,000. All the homes are bought at pre-Sandy market value based on an independent appraisal. So far, 151 have been officially purchased -- and 48 demolished -- statewide. None of those are in Monmouth or Ocean counties, the hardest hit by Sandy. The state says coastal communities there haven't expressed a serious interest in participating.

Print68"L x 24"W x 3mm
Rated 4.5 out of 5 by 56 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by cindieb great for the beginner This kit was what I needed to get started with yoga. It was so much easier than looking around for each item individually. The only drawback is that the mat was thinner than I would have liked. My next one will be thicker. It was still a great purchase. June 25, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by mallock Good value for beginner I've used the mat in both regular and hot yoga classes and it performs well. I have yet to need/use the block, strap or DVD so I can't speak to the quality of those. 2 reasons for 4 stars: #1 - the mat is a bit thin and some poses are more painful on my knees than I would like. I'm wondering if, as a beginner, I should've gone for a thicker mat and #2 - the mat tends to move around on the floor so I sometimes end up misaligned with the rest of the class which is distracting and annoying. Perhaps this is partly me not being very fluid in the transitions between poses yet but also could be that the mat doesn't grip on the floor very well either. Overall, for the quality of the mat and everything that comes in the set, it's a very good value for someone who's starting out. April 20, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by MrsRemo This mat took me a week of use to FINALLY enjoy it At first I was really disappointed in the mat included in this kit. I read many of it's reviews and a number of people mentioned how slippery the mat was, I was sad to come to the same conclusion upon the first 2 days of using the mat & I was hoping to be proven wrong. I'm only a couple months into my yoga pratice, but I have about 10 years of pilates practice behind me. This kit fit my price range & I was excited to get a block & strap to better my tecnique & help my practice. { I don't intend on using the DVD, I attend a class & found online classes I love}, but a new basic mat was what I was really looking forward too. I had to do research online on how to properly & gently "break in" my new mat to make it less slippery & the two things that made a difference were 1. Cleaning it down with a gentle vinegar/water solution & 2. Drying in the sun. After I made those two changes, the mat was everything I needed. I wished the kit came with those very suggestions. As a "beginner kit" I think newbies should be given sound advice in getting the best out of their equipment from the start. I've actually started included inversions {bound headstands & the crow pose} after I washed & dried it and the mat it was perfect for the job. I'm so glad I didn't have to return this kit, the color is really lovely, the quality is pretty good so far & the ordering/shipping process was painless. I'd recomment this kit, only if you are willing to "break in" your mat first. September 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by AudraB Great to be able to purchase a kit with the block and straps - including a DVD to show correct utilization of the props! April 9, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by digby Medium quality starter kit for newbie yogis! Everything in the kit was decent quality. Likes: Rodney Yee is a good instructor with solid technique; his voice cues help you to focus on what you should be focusing on without being repetitive, intrusive, or annoying. Cons: the strap is a little low budget--cotton, though I like the metal buckle over plastic (greener choice). The mat has that "new mat" smell, so you may want to purchase/use mat wash before your first session if you're sensitive. I'd love to see a DVD with more than just one each of the AM, daily, PM workouts on it. Give the newbies a full 5 days and intro to more poses, please! January 21, 2014

Twenty years ago Michael Quinn was head chef at a London five-star hotel, cooking for the Queen and appearing on numerous TV shows, but just a few years later, he became a homeless drunk.
Now he's in New Zealand to try and help those in the hospitality industry steer clear of alcoholism and talk to the homeless about turning their lives around.
He said his alcoholism spiralled into an addiction before he knew it and eventually, it completely took over his life.
"I became a failed father, failed husband and a failed chef."
He said he doesn't blame the hospitality industry for his addiction, but believes it made him predisposed.
"Hospitality is a work hard, play hard culture along with many other industries.
"I developed this enormous capacity for drinking but it eventually caught up with me and I paid the price."
Three years after he finished working at prestigious London hotel The Ritz, he lost a job at another London hotel because, he said, his addiction made him "totally unreliable".
That's when he hit rock-bottom - his wife left him and he got kicked out of a Coventry dry-house for drinking.
"I embarked on a full-time drinking career.
"I ended up on the streets and I was mixing with the criminal fraternity, doing all sorts of stuff to get money for alcohol."
He had his last drink in 1996 and said his life had improved markedly since then.
Now he's on a mission to create awareness in the hospitality industry and stop other chefs from falling down the same dark hole.
"The younger we teach people about what happens when we drink, the better it is."
He said people needed to pay attention to the early warning signs.
"If anyone ever comments on your drinking, the spliffs you're smoking, other drugs you might be using, you need to look at it. Because other people, they notice first."
Quinn had established the Ark Foundation, a charity to take an awareness seminar on alcohol and drugs to Britain's catering colleges.
The foundation had since run seminars at 300 colleges, in front of 20,000 students.

Frisco, TX (SportsNetwork.com) - The Dallas Stars added a top-six forward and bolstered their goaltending depth as the free agency period got underway.
The club signed crafty winger Ales Hemsky to a three-year contract and netminder Anders Lindback to a one-year deal on Tuesday.
The news comes hours after the Stars acquired center Jason Spezza in a trade with the Ottawa Senators.
Hemsky, 30, ended the 2013-14 season as Spezza's linemate after arriving from Edmonton at the trade deadline in March.
The Czech was selected by the Oilers in the first round (13th overall) of the 2001 NHL Draft and he collected 477 points, including 142 goals, in 652 games prior to being dealt to Ottawa. He produced at nearly a point-per-game clip with the Senators, finishing with four goals and 17 points in 20 games.
"Ales Hemsky is an accomplished, skilled winger who has great vision and finish," said Stars general manager Jim Nill. "His right-handed shot will complement our forward group nicely and provide balance throughout our lineup."
The 26-year-old Lindback spent the past two seasons with Tampa Bay, going 18-22-3 with a 2.90 goals-against average and .897 save percentage.

More Video: NCAA Doubles Press Conference
May 28, 2012
ATHENS---Stanford's second-ranked duo of Mallory Burdette and Nicole Gibbs claimed the NCAA Doubles Championship with a 6-2,6-4 win over Georgia's Nadja Gilchrist and Chelsey Gullickson here Monday.
Due to rain, the final was played indoors, and the Stanford tandem jumped out to an early 3-0 edge. They were poised to go up 4-0 when the Bulldogs saved three break points and Gullickson held serve. Stanford remained on the attack and eventually picked up another break with Gullickson serving in the eighth game to take the first set 6-2.
In the second set, the hard-hitting Cardinal duo continued near flawless play and went up 3-1 before the Bulldogs notched their first break of the match on Burdette's serve. Gullickson connected for a volley winner and Gilchrist came through with a backhand winner for the opportunity and then Burdette had a rare double fault on game point to pull Georgia to within 3-2. After Gilchrist held serve to even the set at 3-all, the partisan-Georgia crowd came alive. Gibbs provided a powerful service game and then a series of volley errors by the Bulldogs moved the Cardinal in front 5-3. Georgia managed to break Burdette to close the gap but the Stanford pair responded in the next game and Gibbs smashed a forehand winner down the line for the match. It was her second NCAA title of the day after beating Burdette for the singles crown.
"First of all, I want to say a special thanks to Coach Dan Magill for his vision and hard work that he's put in that helped pave the way for another 12 days of amazing days of tennis at the complex that is named after him," said Georgia coach Jeff Wallace. "It's awesome to see him, and we need to remember all that he's done for both Georgia tennis and college tennis. I'm proud of the way Nadja and Chelsey competed throughout their career and how they represented Georgia. Stanford got on a roll; it started in singles today for them and everything they hit went in during doubles. They played really well."
"We started slow, but Stanford played great," said Gullickson. "Today, we didn't return as well as we had been, and I missed some volley opportunities. We finished our career with a loss, but we are two seniors who made it to the finals of the NCAAs."
"I would've preferred to play outside because the inside courts play faster, and they hit it really hard," said Gilchrist."But the way Stanford was playing, it probably wouldn't have mattered, but it would've been nice to play outside."
The Burdette-Gibbs team end the year with a 35-5 record while the 27th-ranked tandem of Gullickson/Gilchrist wound up 24-8. For their career as a duo, the Bulldogs finished 64-21. This was the fourth time in Bulldog history that a team played for an NCAA doubles title. Marissa Catlin reached the finals with three different teammates, in 1997 with Michelle Anderson, in 1999 with Vanessa Castellano and in 2000 with Lori Grey. Gullickson ends her Bulldog career with a school record 230 wins including 69 this year, going 34-9 in singles and 35-12 in doubles.

Young women to develop environmental leadership skills in India and Switzerland
Traduction à suivre
9 Mars 2012
More than 70 Girl Guides and Girl Scouts will develop their environmental leadership skills this month at simultaneous WAGGGS events in India and Switzerland.
The theme of the two WAGGGS Leadership Development Programme (WLDP) events - being held at the World Centres Our Chalet in Switzerland and Sangam in India from 14 to 19 March - is "Young Women Leading for a Greener Future", chosen to reflect this year's World Thinking Day topic "We can save our planet".
The 32 delegates at the Helen Storrow Seminar at Our Chalet will focus on the environmental issues of today and explore ways to raise awareness and use practical skills to create change.
At Sangam the Young Women Leading for a Greener Future event will be attended by 45 participants, and aims to empower youth leaders and young women to educate, speak out, act and motivate others to take action for a greener planet. The participants will experience leadership development in the field of environmental education and advocacy.
Practical skills to take home
At the heart of both events will be the WLDP aim of giving participants practical leadership skills which they can apply in their Member Organizations or communities.
Topics will include personal development, understanding leadership, environment, advocacy and communication. Seven facilitators and staff will support delegates at each event.
The two events will link up remotely to share ideas and experiences. Technology will be a key feature, with delegates encouraged to blog and tweet regular updates and upload videos to the WAGGGS YouTube channel.
Prisca Mahefa (Madagascar) - 9 Mars 2012 - 5.44PM (GMT)
Another empowering WAGGGS event!!! Yeah guides make change happen. Kudos to all the sisters around the world.

Originally written on Mets360.com | Last updated 6/18/12
Huntington, NY native, Cam Maron is one of two Met catching prospects who seem to have the makings of future MLB players. His calling card has been a solid average with little power and no speed. His patience and contact oriented approach and his being a lefty (Hitting) makes me think of Josh Thole. Having another Josh Thole in the minors is not a bad thing. Camden is a local boy and a Met fan. His local paper ran a nice little article on his signing back in 2009. In his last 15 games Cam Maron has become another level of player. In the last 10 his triple slash is: .488/.523/.610 and doing a little math will show you that works out to an OPS of 1.132. The improved hitting has led to Cam being more of a free swinger, 2 BBs and 8 Ks but 8 Ks in 10 games is NOTHING, just ask Matt Den Dekker. At 21 years of age, Cam Maron is on the perfect track to be to the majors by the 2015 season with a chance to come up sooner if he gets lucky. As it stands, it would make sense to have B...

Criminal ex-dictator Manuel Noriega is suing Activision for portraying him as a bad man in Call of DutyComments 1
If you played Call of Duty Black Ops II, you may recall this chap you can see above. His name is Manuel Noriega, and - unlike so many aspects of Call of Duty - he's actually a real person. Quite a nasty one too; he's currently sitting in a prison cell in Panama for crimes he committed during his reign as the country's dictator. Murder ranks among his more awful crimes.
He's in the news today though not for committing any further atrocities from his jail cell, but because he's attempting to sue Activision for portraying him in a negative light in Call of Duty.

The worlds of 'working for the betterment of society' and 'private enterprise' are often seen as incompatible. This online course will attempt to break-down that perception in order for participants to see the social sector as a place of opportunity, both to 'do good' but also to innovate and build a financially sustainable social enterprise.
The course hopes to inspire participants with an entrepreneurial spirit, help gain an understanding of the challenges of the start-up process, offer space and structure for participants to begin developing their own business plan for a socially beneficial venture, and think about the complexities of growing and managing it.

Maputo — The United Sates has promised to assist the Mozambican government in post-flood reconstruction, particularly in Chokwe, Guija and Xai-Xai districts, the areas most severely affected by flooding on the Limpopo River.
This pledge was given at a press conference in Maputo on Friday by US Ambassador Douglas Griffiths, who just returned from a visit to the Limpopo valley.
Griffiths said that the US is also mobilising its partners to provide the assistance required to help people in the flood-stricken areas return to their normal lives.
"The reconstruction phase is very important and the United States will help the government support the victims in order to normalise their lives", he said. "For example, the people will need agricultural inputs in order to resume production, and we are seeing, together with our partners, how we can help".
Griffiths said he had been impressed with the organisation of the temporary accommodation centres set up by the government, with the spirit of mutual help among the flood victims, and with the government's efforts to provide them with better conditions.
He was pleased that the aid the US has already sent to support the victims is indeed reaching its intended destination.
"We saw good leadership given by the National Disasters Management Institute (INGC – the Mozambican relief agency)", the ambassador said. "The centres are organised, the people are organizing themselves, and this is what impresses me about Mozambicans. Yesterday we saw aid arriving for affected people in remote areas, and we are satisfied with this".
For her part, the director of the Maputo office of the US Agency for International Development (USAID), Polly Dunford, said "the INGC's organisation for responding to an emergency situation was much better this year than in previous years. We are seeing progress, but we have to look at the preventive aspects and we are willing to help the Mozambican government and people in this aspect".
The US has already made available 1.7 million dollars worth of aid for the flood victims, in the shape of food, water purification and sanitation equipment, tents and support for managing the accommodation centres.
