FutsalNH Academy is a futsal player development organization that is not affiliated with any soccer clubs. Attracting soccer and futsal players of all ages and skill level from clubs in NH, MA, and ME, the Academy has achieved regional and national recognition for its success in developing futsal players. FutsalNH is led by coaches and trainers who are the first in the nation to achieve National Level 3 futsal coaching certification, and some of our coaches are also on the USYF National Coaching Staff under National Team Head Coach Keith Tozer. FutsalNH teams have won regional and national championships, and FutsalNH currently has two USYF Youth National Team players.
We take player development seriously and expect each and every player to improve their skills in our programs, while enjoying the intensity and fun of the game of futsal.
FutsalNH's Academy now offers three options for player development: Club FutsalNH, Academy Training, and the Junior Futsal Program. What is the difference between them? How can you enroll? See below and click on the links provided.
Club FutsalNH: For players U9-U17 looking for the full experience of training and competition
Club FutsalNH maintains a focus on player development but provides the experience of a consistent team and coaching staff. In Club FutsalNH, each player will tryout for elite or premier teams and, if selected, will play with the same players and the same coach throughout the futsal season. This includes all training sessions, league play, and tournaments (e.g. the Northeast Futsal Regional Championships). More information on Club FutsalNH can be found here.
FutsalNH Academy: For players U9-U17 looking only for high-level training
FutsalNH Academy is a structured training program aimed at individual player development, with no commitment to play in games or tournaments. The Academy training program is appropriate for soccer and futsal players of all skill levels who desire weekly futsal training in order to develop their technical and tactical skills, but who are unable to commit to playing games in leagues or tournaments with a FutsalNH team. More information on Academy training can be found here.
Junior Futsal Program: For players ages 6-9 seeking training and limited game-play
FutsalNH's Junior Futsal Program is aimed at teaching basic skills to young and developing soccer and futsal players. Our junior program provides challenging technical drills, games, and exercises in a fun environment in order to increase confidence and enhance the foot skills of junior players. Players will have the opportunity to begin competing in controlled scrimmages and games. More information can be found here.

Re: Price war!!
Yeah, there has been mentions of Dish buying T-Mobile. That would work, cause it wouldn't be minusing a national carrier. Just not sure if Dish has the capital to buy T-Mobile.

Even in its first generation it's expected to transfer at about 10 gigabits per second, or two times faster than USB 3.0. Intel added that Light Peak's throughput has "the potential ability" to increase to 100Gbps in the next ten years, but that even at 10Gbps, "a user could transfer a full-length Blu-ray movie in less than 30 seconds."
The optical nature also allows for smaller connectors and thinner, more flexible cables than currently possible that could span up to an impressive 100 meters. To put this into perspective, USB 2.0 is limited to just five meters of cable, without extenders, whilst USB 3.0 is restricted to three. Copper wires may still come bundled with the optical fiber so Light Peak can be used to power devices plugged into the PC.
The firm says compatible devices could be ready to ship as early as next year and that it is currently working with the industry to settle on a standard -- but of course that is easier said than done, even for Intel.

late 14c. as an adjective, "perplexed, puzzled, bewildered," from Latin perplexus "involved, confused, intricate;" but Latin had no corresponding verb *perplectere. The Latin compound would be per "through" (see per) + plexus "entangled," past participle of plectere "to twine, braid, fold" (see complex (adj.)).
The form of the English adjective shifted to perplexed by late 15c., probably to conform to other past participle adjectives. The verb is latest attested of the group, in 1590s, evidently a back-formation from the adjective. Related: Perplexing, which well describes the history of the word.

The Weighted Roman Square Pilum-principle tool of the Roman Legionnaire. This pilum, or spear, was well designed to destroy the ability of the opponent's shield defense. The short head could easily penetrate a wooden shield, and the long neck prevented the head from being cut off. Thus encumbered, the shield was rendered useless, leaving the opponent unprotected. Made of mild steel, it would easily bend, preventing it from being thrown back. Our replica is weighted to aid penetration, common about 100 A.D.

Toshiba Excite 10 review: Monstrous expandable storage potential
If you're bad at making storage priorities, the Toshiba Excite 10 may be worth considering.
Not two months after its release of the "thinnest and lightest" tablet, the Toshiba 10 LE, Toshiba is back with a new 10-inch tablet: the Toshiba Excite 10.
It's not thinner or lighter than the LE, but the Excite 10 does bring Android 4.0, a Tegra 3 CPU, and 128GB expandable storage option to the table.
That may be enough to outclass the LE, but what about tablets that offer more than just a thin profile? My full review of the Toshiba Excite 10 attempts to find answers.

Notes & Reviews:
"Savall's passion and virtuosity have allowed him to shake the dust off pieces of music that have long since passed into the dark world of museums and academies. Channeled through his viol, ancient songs come to life with a vitality and energy that make them sound as if they were written yesterday."-No Depression
The Celtic Viol Vol.2 follows a critically acclaimed first volume, but is far from being merely its continuation. Thanks to the use of different types of viol (treble and lyra) and the particularly inspired rhythms coming from Frank McGuire on bodhran (an Irish frame drum), Jordi Savall enriches his vision of this fascinating repertoire. Andrew Lawrence-King again offers a perfect counterpoint on Irish harp and psaltery. The album is organized in seven sets that enable us to discover many sides of a repertoire Jordi Savall explores with the steadiest hand.
"The tastefulness of his treble viol playing and the more resonant, lower lyra viol is fetching, and his rhythmic liveliness is always in evidence." -The Observer
"Savall has traded the fiddle on the previous disc for a deeper-voiced, flexibly-tuned lyra viol while retaining the treble viol in the outer sets. Lawrence-King alternates between two harps and a psaltery, providing a rich variety of accompaniments...Mcguire neatly underscores and complements the energy inherent in the tunes." -Gramophone Magazine
"Savall and Andrew Lawrence-King have again opened a window on an approach to the tradition which differs intriguingly from more mainstream revivalist or folk-rock realizations." -BBC Music

This is first Enigma2 receiver with BCM processor from Opticum. AX Odin is updated version of already famous Galaxy Innovations Genius receivers. It is produced in Korea, in the same factory where xtrend receivers.
Opticum AX Odin comes only with one Linux operating system Enigma2, which is main difference from older Odin M7 receivers. It also has new drivers and 750 DMIPS application CPU. It works with the same e2 images as Galaxy Innovations Genius.So Opticum AX Odin already has Enigma2 firmware support from OE-Alliance members such as Odin team, OpenPL, Zebradem, OpenATV, SIF Team, PB-Enigma team and many more!
An updated version of the popular HD satellite receiver Opticum X403p on the new dual core processor ALI 3606. Now, this unit supports a maximum resolution - Full HD 1080p, processor speed is 400 MHz and doubled the amount of flash memory.
The device has an optimal weight with 1.2 kg! The size is with (B, H, D) 280 x 55 x 235 mm in a good area. Lots of connections! Under the hinged front panel, there are 1x USB, 1x 1x CX and CI. On the back we see AV, Ethernet, S / PDIF, 0/12V, Scart, HDMI, USB, SAT IN, loop out, and the on / off switch. No more looking for cables! The 140cm long power cord is firmly installed. The many air vents cause the metal housing that the HD X406p not overheat.
Receiver is supplied with extensive and visually stunning remote control (batteries included).
The Opticum HD X406p looks very high and noble. This is done expanding and collapsing of the front panel by pressing mechanism. Thanks to the four rubber feet on the slide receiver when you press no back and forth. Under the panel there are eight controls. If the remote control is gone, so the device can be operated. Although not fully functional, but with the basics. The 4-digit display shows the on-mode, the current space program and in standby mode, the Clock.
Receiver has USB port 2.0, card reader and CI slot. internal card reader with official firmware supports Conax, cards, but with updated ( patched firmware) a variety of cards are supported Secca, Viaccess, Irdeto,etc. In case if your interesded encription system is not supported, you can still use CI slot for CAM-module for compatibility issues.
Opticum HD X406p is equipped with modern satellite receiver that supports reception of signals in a standard DVB-S and DVB-S2. At the same time used a new ALI 3606 processor with a clock frequency of 400 MHz, which allows the same stability to cope with viewing channels in both standard and high-resolution HD. And the declared support of the blind channel scanning, which allows you to automatically determine the parameters of the transponder from the satellite, without the need for prescription in the manual mode. Compared with Opticum HD X403p, in the receiver was also increased the amount of flash memory twice, and now he is - 8 Mb, which in turn will add additional firmware functions.
The boot process takes a test in 26 seconds. The menu is clearly structured and user-friendly. A glance inside the menu: There are also games. However, these are more suitable for undemanding, because not every child is content with games like Snake or other pixel games.
The switching times are very good. One click and the unit within one second to the next station. Everything is under control! If you press the OK button on the remote you get access to all selected, free, or encrypted HD channels. The FAV menu can be created quickly and easily. For this there are also categories like movies, music, sports or news. The EPA is also very well designed.
Opticum HD X406p has the function of a digital VCR. To activate it necessary to connect a hard drive or flash drive via one of two available USB 2.0 interface. At the same time it allows you to not only record channels in standard and high definition, but one channel while recording another channel can be viewed, but this function is supported within a single transponder. It is also possible to use the delayed viewing programs - TimeShift, with the resumption of view after removal of the pause. And in addition to all other device supports playing movies in the format (*. Mpg) to an external drive, in addition to music, and photos.
Present in Opticum HD X406p LAN port enables the receiver to make a connection to a computer network that has access to the global network Internet. Which will update the device software and also implement advanced features of viewing pay channels, if you use the firmware that supports the required parameters. ( Cardsharing ). Popular Newcamd and Cccam protocols are supported!

How to Buy a Cantaloupe
With produce prices on the rise, it's important to buy good fruits and vegetables to get your money's worth. Buying a cantaloupe that is ripe and good for eating can be a confusing experience if you don't know what to look for. Follow these steps to ensure a quality purchase.
1Look. Take a look at the bin, shelf, or box the cantaloupes are being stored in. If there are flies or other insects around it, or there is juice leaking out and covering the fruits, it's probably a good idea to buy your melon elsewhere.Ad
2To pick a cantaloupe, look for a fruit that is light tan with green lines across it. Avoid melons with punctures, dents, or large brown or black patches.
3Feel. Pick up the candidate. It should be heavy for its size, and firm but not rock hard. A cantaloupe that is still a little hard is good for if you are buying for an event about a week away, but if you are planning on taking your cantaloupe home and eating then and there, you'll want one that has a little give.
4Smell. Sniff the spot where the melon was severed from its stem. You should smell an aroma similar to a freshly sliced cantaloupe. If you can't smell anything, it's under ripe. An unpleasing smell means it's no longer good to eat.
5Listen. Shake the cantaloupe next to your ear. If you can hear seed rattling about inside, it's ready to eat.Ad
We could really use your help!
Skin Care?
sports and fitness?
Minecraft Pocket Edition?
- After you've brought your cantaloupe home, always wash it with mild dish soap and cool water. Fertilizers used by farmers can make contact with the fruit and make you sick.

Today in Mobile
The mobile industry is waking this morning to the huge news that Google plans to acquire Motorola Mobility for $12.5 billion, marking a 60-plus percent premium for the business. Some of the best posts so far in reaction to the news: My colleague Kevin C. Tofel questions whether other manufacturers of Android handsets will trust Google post-acquisition, Henry Blodget outlines why the deal could be a disaster, and Florian Mueller explains why the pick-up isn't entirely (or even primarily) about Moto's patents. The most level-headed response I've seen comes from Darrell Etherington over at The Apple Blog, who predicts the deal "won't give (Moto) what Apple has." That's probably true, but it's still an acquisition that will have a huge impact on the mobile world.

Tomb Raider - Final Hours Episode 4: Surviving Together
In the fourth episode of The Final Hours of Tomb Raider , Zachary Levi goes behind the scenes on the addition of multiplayer.
by Mike Tao on
Did you enjoy this video?Sign In to Upvote
Multi-Player equals more money, money, money for the game makers! DLCs & map-packs will be bought after the initial $60 retail disc purchase.
why do they put multiplayer in every game those days ?
Your Zachary Levi has evolved into a John Krasinski.
I was never a big Tomb Raider fan, but from what I'm seeing so far I might just change my mind and pick this one up.
From what we can see here... Zachery Levi is probably going to be a freakin' hilarious character to play with. Big fan.
From making Chuck to doing commentaries for Tomb Raider. HUUUUUGE drop off.
already in March. I have to collect money XD
Is this the place to complain about games that haven't come out yet?
Definitely avoiding choosing 'Zac' as my playable character.. Bloody hell those sound clips were annoying :/
I hope it doesn't end up like a ghost town after a few months?
There are going to be so many Laras running around....
Multiplayer is not necessary for this game to succeed. If anything, it might hurt it when people compare it to multiplayer powerhouses like Halo, Call of Duty, etc. The mainstream games.
Now, if the soundtrack, gameplay (both platforming and fighting), graphics, and story hold up, then I'm okay with adding in multiplayer if it can bring in more interest...just, remember this is Tomb Raider after all, Crystal Dynamics.
I'm not going to say that the addition of this multiplayer team takes away from the single player. They're two separate teams.
I'm just not seeing this add much value to the game. They're trying to hit a wider audience, but I feel like the audience that craves multiplayer isn't going to buy this game, they're going to buy games where multiplayer is the FOCUS, not the addition. I don't know, it just doesn't seem like the best investment to me.
Still going to play this game, as I think it'll be pretty fun.
You forgot to also being added into the game.

Turn loose, don't turn loose, I'm so confused.
Read this:
This is an excerpt from the article: I think it explains a lot of things better than I have read previously, including my perception that the bike tends to right itself when releasing pressure coming out of a curve. It may be just a perception, but there are reasons why it feels that way.
......... Likewise, you need to steer the contact patches of a bike out from under it, so it falls, then arrest the fall by steering the contact patches to follow the top of the bike around the corner, then steer them even harder in the direction of travel than the top of the bike is going, in order to make the bike stand up again. It is often said that you recover from the lean by accelerating. Accelerating does widen your corner, thus making you go straighter. It does this by increasing the distance over which the sideways force of your lean acts. The physics adds up to the rule that a certain degree of lean, if you stay still on the bike, will result in a certain angular velocity (rate of directional change) at a certain forward speed. If you increase that speed by accelerating, it will not automatically change your degree of lean, but it will spread the force of the lean over a longer distance, thus diluting your ability to change direction, and you will go straighter. This is a natural and sensible thing to do when coming out of turns, but it is not sufficient to stand the bike up completely. It won't get the job done. You still need to finally steer the contact patch back under the bike.
Here's what acceleration in a corner does for you. It shifts weight to the rear, extending the fork, thus increasing rake and trail, which increases the self-correcting tendency of the steering. To the degree that you are leaning, this makes the bike stand up more. But it won't take you all the way, because that self-correcting force goes to zero as your lean goes to zero. Also, the faster you go, the more effective are your inputs to the handlebars, so it takes less and less motion of the bars to bring the contact patches under the bike the more you accelerate out of the turn. That reduces the trouble you need to go to in order to cancel the lean, but once again, you have to deliver that last nudge, to get the contact patches back under the center of gravity. Unfortunately, the contact patch takes more and more handlebar motion to steer, as speed approaches zero.

Lexington, Ky. (PRWEB) April 16, 2012
The College Savings Plans Network (CSPN), the nation's authority on 529 College Savings Plans, announced that Americans used funds from 1.4 million 529 accounts to pay for college expenses in 2011, according to its 529 Report infographic released today. Total investments in 529 plans reached a record high of $164.9 billion at year-end, including growth from new net contributions and investment returns, an increase of 4.7 percent since 2010.
The report is based on data aggregated exclusively by CSPN from all 107 savings and prepaid tuition programs nationwide, and examines 529 plan assets, contributions and distributions. The report shows that saving for college continues to be a priority for American families, with more than half (52 percent) of accounts receiving contributions in 2011.
"More than ever before, American families are committing to saving for future education expenses by opening a 529 plan, with 10.7 million open accounts at year-end 2011 – a 6.6 percent increase since 2010," said Iowa State Treasurer Michael Fitzgerald, chair of CSPN. "This exclusive, unbiased data also shows that families that saved with a 529 plan are seeing the reward, with $11.3 billion in distributions made in 2011 to pay for college."
Today's 529 Report infographic also shows:
"Findings from the 2011 year-end 529 Report infographic highlight that, now more than ever, millions of American families see the benefit in investing in a 529 plan, and are continuing to use college savings plans to make their children and grandchildren's higher education dreams become a reality," said Fitzgerald. "With more than 107 plans to choose from, most of which offer tax deductions or credits, and with minimum contributions of as little as $15 a month, 529 plans are a convenient way for families of all income levels to save for college. We know that students who have any savings in their name are six times more likely to attend a four-year college than children with no dedicated college savings account. This means that by investing in a 529 plan early-on, our nation's children will have a better chance at getting a higher education and being competitive in the global job market."
The year-end 529 Report is based on data aggregated exclusively by CSPN from all 107 Section 529 savings and prepaid tuition programs from Jan. 1, 2011 to Dec. 31, 2011. Data is collected by CSPN twice a year to provide consumers and financial advisors with the most timely, complete and accurate information available on 529 plans. Visit http://www.CollegeSavings.org to view the 529 Report infographic, and for resources and tools that families can use to make informed decisions about saving for college.

Christy Cooney Inaurguration Weekend Photos
Youghal Town Council accord a civic reception to Christy Cooney, President of the GAA
(Courtesy of youghalonline.com)
Youghal Town Council accorded a civic reception to Youghal man Christy Cooney, President of the GAA at the council chambers on Monday night (19th Oct. 2009). A large audience representing members of Youghal GAA club and Christy's family and friends were present to honour the Youghal native who heads the largest sporting organisation in the country.
Speech by Mayor of Youghal Sandra McLellan at the civic reception held in The Mall House to honour Youghal native Christy Cooney, President of the GAA.
"Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I would like to welcome you all here this evening.
On behalf of Youghal Town Council it gives me great pleasure to honour Christy Cooney, a native of Youghal with this Civic Reception in recognition of his achievement in becoming president of the Gaelic Athletic Association.
Christy has given a lifetime service to the G.A.A. both as a player and administrator at all levels.
He was secretary of the Youghal Juvenile Club at just 16 years of age. He represented Youghal at both East Cork and County Level and held every position within the Youghal Club down through the years. He was also Chairman of the Youghal Club for 2 terms, Chairman of the Cork County Board, Chairman of the Munster Council and now currently President of the GAA.
Id like to pay tribute to all of Christys family especially his wife Ann, his daughter Edel, and his son Patrick who lives in Australia because I know it was a team effort.
Id also like to mention Christys parents Paddy and Agnes who would have been very proud of him.
Christy, The people of Youghal are very proud of you on your fantastic achievement and I am delighted all your hard work and dedication has paid off."

Christy with Youghal GAA Members
Home is the hero as Youghal celebrates Christy Cooney
Youghal hero Christy Cooney enjoyed a Herculean homecoming to celebrate his inauguration as GAA President on April 18th. A day later, the 57 year-old head of the country's premier sporting organisation was ferried on a raucous, horn-blowing, hazards-flashing lap of honour round the town from his home in Copperalley. Having sanctified the main thoroughfares and all on them, the presidential cavalcade terminated at Youghal GAA's Club Aras headquarters on Magners Hill, at 7pm. Amidst considerable Christy-chaos, the most awaited man in town was afforded a guard of honour from the joy-filled boys and girls of Youghal's Juvenile sector as he entered the club. Within, the celebrations would unfold like a second half dream. An Uachtaran was joined by his wife Anne, daughter Edele, siblings Daithi, Pa, Brendan, Kevin and Angela, extended family and just about everyone in Youghal who ever watched an umpire raise a flag, for a night of bia, deoch, sceal, ceol agus amhran. The President's son Patrick, currently resident in Australia, had watched the Congress proceedings via RTE's website streaming, but doubtless he will some day review TV3's footage of grassroots gra at its greatest in Club Aras. Comhaltas Craobh Eochaille performed to the international standard for which Ireland's most-travelled Comhaltas branch is renowned, while every heart pulsed to the rhythm of pride. The President graciously and gratefully accepted gifts from various organisations, including Youghal camogie club, Youghal GAA's Juvenile sector and the Youghal GAA club itself, which presented him with a unique pencil-painting of the Copperally playing arena from the extremely talented hands of Youghal artist Paul Daly. It was, perhaps, as much Youghal GAA club's night as it was Christy Cooney's as the reflected glory of its son's achievement transformed to a national spotlight. The search for glory on the field had, for awhile, given way to the celebration of success away from it. On Monday, President Cooney awoke from what was surely a brief night's sleep to undertake a tour of local schools, where further plaudits, tokens, presentations and handshakes were given and received. It was a pleasant and deserved interlude before he confronts the infinitely more daunting encounters with the GPA, sponsorship, rules changes, discipline, player welfare, provincial games, ticket allocations, the Aussies, fixture congestion, global recession and reduced income once Lansdowne Road is re-opened. Who knows where that Sunday cavalcade through Youghal was really bringing him?! end

Christy Cooney, incoming GAA president talks to Christy Parker on the eve of taking up his appointment.
There was great celebration in Youghal when Christy Cooney became President-in-waiting of the GAA last April. His triumphant homecoming, his emotional address and the ensuing tributes saw nostalgia congeal with anticipation. Now the waiting is over. On April 17th, Congress convenes again. This time Christy Cooney will depart as the 36th President of the GAA.
In the early months, the GAA awakes like a yawning bear but in Christy's case it will be a long awakening. For three years the Fas senior executive will swap careers to lead Ireland's main sporting body. From his home, a free kick from Youghal GAA's Copperalley pitch, he says the dream has already given way to reality. "Since January I've been chairing a national committee, working with Nicky Brennan to ensure a smooth transition and preparing my address for Congress," he informs.
He has been organising "about 36 committees, involving almost 300 people who I think will deliver what is best for the Association." Then there's the Strategic Policy 2009-15 to contemplate, involving all aspects, from rules to marketing to discipline and so on. So yes, "there's been lots of consulting."
There's more. It remains nigh impossible to look at a hurley, let alone a GAA president, without mentioning Cork's recent civil war. "That took up time too," he volunteers. He strongly supports the elevation of Denis Walsh to senior coach and endorses the addition of Denis Coughlan, Jimmy Barry-Murphy and John Fenton to the mix. He regrets the "trauma suffered by Gerald McCarthy, who is a very honourable guy and who did excellent work for Cork hurling" and hopes nothing similar is ever repeated. "People need step back and realise its just sport." While rueful that Cork GAA "washed its dirty linen in public," he recognises that, longterm, "if all sides learn lessons from it, it may improve communications and relations in Cork."
Plus ca change
There is only "good friendship" between himself and outgoing president, Brennan, with whom he shares "similar beliefs." No seismic changes are likely. "The GAA's fundamental values certainly won't change," he nods, "but I'd hope they'll strengthen by focusing on strong clubs, volunteers and a solid community base, which is what the GAA is all about."
Not that he eschews change, but it will arrive within the context of the Strategic Plan. "We have eleven key areas of responsibility outlined. Society and the economy have altered and that impacts on our development, necessitating procedural changes to meet new challenges."
The current morass notwithstanding, he believes Ireland's prosperity delivered a priority. "There's been an immense population transfer from rural to urban areas I the past decade and perhaps we didn't respond adequately. Its vital we get a stronghold in those areas, through schools and other structures."
Schools and volunteers
Christy Cooney speaks glowingly of his upbringing and perhaps knows no greater recommendation for Gaelic games –and sport generally- than his own childhood. It's a constant reference point and he places great store in it, seeing an equable relationship between personal development and a thriving GAA.
His family held strenuous GAA conviction but he primarily graduated to a modest club hurling career through the guidance of school sport. Unsurprisingly, he values the association's place in the education system and says it will form a hard driven agenda during his presidency. It is reassuring then that his determination is not over-zealous. "Every young person up to 13 year, should get an opportunity to enjoy our games," he insists, but thankfully adds that it not be "a torturous, win-at-all-costs" pursuit, nor that the less adept should "be left sitting on a bench watching." (As for after 13, one hopes the players and their president retain sporting perspective!).
Ironically, successful recruitment raises problems in administering to the increased demand. Volunteerism is the axle on which amateur wheels turn but times have changed. "People are busier nowadays and there are more alternative attractions," he agrees. "But there is remarkable personal reward to be had and I encourage former players to participate in clubs' development in any way they can."
Croke Park
Unlike Nicky Brennan, Christy opposed repealing Rule 42 to open Croke Park to 'foreign games.' He graciously admits "it has been good for the GAA, both PR-wise and in providing money for projects that strengthen the association." Yet his reasons for opposing remain relevant and logical. "We may not know for years whether rugby and soccer benefited in better marketing of their games by using Croke Park, he muses. He declines to say how he would vote if the issue re-emerged, arguing that a Motion before Congress renders it unfair to indicate his position in advance, or for that matter in advance of the FAI or IRFU asking for Croke Park again. He doubts they will, given "they'll hardly want to leave their own stadium empty!"
Meanwhile, Ireland's youth now have idols in provincial and national rugby, while soccer has become the ultimate global commodity. "I think one of our big strengths is having two unique games," counteracts Christy. "We have intense rivalries at inter-club level that are as gripping as any sporting rivalries. Again that's where our community standing matters. We will meet any challenge, but in a pro-active rather than a reactive manner. If we maintain our work ethic I believe we have nothing to fear from any sport."
Computers, culture and the great outdoors.
Of course it is not just other sports that pose challenges. Children, on which all futures depend, have sophisticate home entertainment –that doesn't tend to swipe across their shins! "Certainly, computer skills are of great benefit, Christy considers, "but the downside is kids in rooms, often alone, instead of out playing sport in the fresh air as previous generations did. I love to see kids playing team sport especially, because it informs them about winning and losing and being part of a team."
At last April's homecoming, he fondly recalled an unfettered adolescence spent gloriously in open spaces on which developers' shadows had yet to fall; where cans and coats made goalposts. It's doubtful any computer game would have matched the allure of "Murphy's Row, Greens Quay, the Mall…" Then 'progress, ' with its bricks, mortar and insurance devoured it all.
He digests details of an occurrence at Youghal's Doctor Kennedy's Place. A sparse green area allowed children the liberation to play sport and passing traffic the heartening experience of witnessing it. Then the council laid a paved pathway through it, for the apparent purpose of gaining eleven seconds in access to houses and perhaps a few Tidy Towns points. "Disgraceful; very inappropriate. It takes away an opportunity for kids to enjoy themselves," comments the head of the GAA.
So it's easy to talk about fresh air, isn't it? "I believe planning mistakes were made in Ireland," he reflects, displaying generous tolerance for greed and stupidity. "Any planning process should provide open space for children. The responsibility isn't just on sporting bodies but on local authorities too." He intends "talking to local governments" on the issue "although in fairness," he adjusts, "a lot of Lottery money was given to clubs to develop facilities over the past decade."
League V Championship
To the non-committed, the predominance of summer's All Ireland championship over winter's National League campaigns seems unbalanced. It is, he explains, expected, accepted and apparently irrevocable. "The Championship is special. It's knockout games between intense rivals in GAA tradition. It creates a dynamic atmosphere. The League will never have the same intensity because the players are amateurs and mostly use it to prepare for the Championship, as do managers in terms of trying out new players, etc. However, it does get intense eventually, when teams are suddenly playing for the knockout stages or to avoid relegation or when players vie for places prior to the Championships. It also gives people an opportunity to see top players playing," he adds.
Amateurs for always
All would change were the amateur status ever jettisoned. The incoming president doesn't deliberate before commenting. "It remains our policy not to pay players directly," he states. "The government decided to pay grants directly, which may or may not continue in the present economic climate, but it wasn't our decision. Personally, I'd advocate the money go to a central fund for training and development, with a holiday at the end of the year."
Neither would he tolerate players, for example, collecting financial reward, measured by achievement, on retirement –a sort of pension scheme. "Its still direct payment. It's not our function to organise player's pensions and we already have a very good welfare process. If the government wanted to allocate money in that way, that's their decision." He concludes that, "players, deservedly, get great recognition for success and if they make extra money through marketing etc., the best of luck to them."
Amateur status nurtures the internecine local rivalries that are the association's lifeblood. "Its all tribalism, tradition and cause, I know," says Christy. "It's bigger than a game." He considers such intense, endless battles more relevant to the games' survival than the high profile, inter-county wars that rage across the GAA landscape. Yet these larger conflicts repeatedly remind that most counties will never win an All Ireland. "Some counties have small populations," he reasons. "Rather then win All Irelands, I'd prefer they'd strengthen their club games and improve standards while trying to win whatever titles they can. Building at grassroots is the only way to improve standards. We have hundreds of people working full-time on structures to enable volunteers to improve their good work."
Language tells a lot. It is noticeable, perhaps even unavoidable, that the payment issue brings reference to 'we' and 'they', 'us' and 'them.' Administrators govern and players are governed –two families within the one. This underlined the recent Cork hurling strike and has been epitomised by the formation of the Gaelic Players Association (GPA).
Christy Cooney claims no problem with the GPA "but presently there is no agreement between us and them. It's going through a communication process but I don't know whether anything will come of it. We have to accept it is there and we will support it for the good of the GAA but my approach is that we are an amateur, voluntary organisation and we will not pay them."
Inter-provincial and the international dimension
While the power of local identity captivates, the lure of Provincial representation has lost its lustre for the fans. Christy acknowledges, "there is probably no future for it at home bit the players want to retain it and so do I, if it's worthwhile."
He sees possibilities for the status to compensate for the lack of international glamour that coincides with indigenous games. "The footballers have the Australian mixed rules series so perhaps the hurlers might play the inter-provincial series abroad. It would also give ex-pats a chance to see them." He was impressed by a recent inter-provincial game between Connacht and Leinster in Abu Dhabi, played "in beautiful weather on a perfect pitch" and which attracted over 1,500 spectators, mostly Irish.
Elsewhere, Gaelic games are thriving on foreign patches and pitches, he says, with "450 club teams overseas. Its not easy to spread hurling, as its skills are easier learnt at a young age, but at the GAA's Continental Youth Championships in Chicago two years ago, he saw "huge numbers of non-Irish kids playing both codes. And at a dinner in St. Brendan's, Manchester, he remembers "many non-Irish" amongst the 700 in attendance.
There are other dimensions native to the Gaelic Athletic Association. Handball and rounders "must be developed and promoted," he says without specifying how. More pertinently, there's women and 125 years of male orientated tradition. "We enjoy great relations with the organisations running Camogie and Ladies Football and gladly allow them use of our facilities," he begins. He acknowledges the off-field contribution of women, through match attendances and influence on kids whom they bring to training, before endorsing their administrative value. "We have about six female county secretaries and numerous female officials. I see no reason why a woman should not be Chairperson of a County Board. Tradition is changing and rightly so."
More generally, he concedes there is sometimes a perception of 'selectivity' surrounding the GAA. He largely disagrees but emphasises that he'd "sincerely love to see our doors open to everyone. The more people involved the better for all. We need to re-energise ourselves and bring in some fresh thinking."
Mr. Cooney
So much for President Cooney, but he's a layman too. Married to Ann, the couple have two adult children, Edele and Patrick, neither of whom follow their father's sporting footsteps. When not cooking, washing up and ironing, Christy plays golf when he finds time, an outdoor recreation he espouses alongside walks on Youghal beach and, without irony, attending matches! Indoors, he enjoys television and reading with a political bent. Dermot Keogh's biography of Jack Lynch, residing on his coffee table encapsulates dual appeal of course but other books and stuffy have given him regard for Trimble, Adams and McGuiness and onwards to Blair and Luther King.
In the sporting context he draws inspiration from the achievements of such as Jimmy Barry-Murphy and several former GAA presidents. Significantly though, he finds motivation more in deeds than identities, citing 'ordinary people' locally and beyond, within and outside the association, as inspiring. "Nobody gets to the summits without following a path in life," he philosophises, "and all the people who encouraged, supported and developed you along the way, implicated your self belief and helped create what you are. Within the GAA, that applies at every level and in every way. Everyone has a role and everyone finds their own milestones differently." From April 17th, a lot of people will be following his journey.

President-Elect of the GAA Mr. Christy Cooney and his wife Ann arrive home to a heroes welcome
GAA President-in-waiting Christy Cooney returned to his Youghal base in a fanfare of deep pride and emotion last Sunday night. At first, a few friends and supporters welcomed the Association's elected leader as he stepped from his car in the Club Aras headquarters. Dressed in a navy suit, white shirt and sky blue tie, the man who had 60 votes to spare at Congress a day before, now had time to spare for local associates as he smilingly accepted the heartfelt handshakes and hugs from people visibly moved with pride in his achievement.

Drew Barrymore Covers People: Pics From Her "Perfect" Wedding!
Sometimes, Hollywood fairytales do come true. Such seems to be the case for Drew Barrymore, who married art consultant Will Kopelman on Saturday, June 2. Now a gorgeous picture from her wedding is gracing the cover of People, and it sounds like she couldn't be happier.
The wedding took place at Drew's home, and the star told People that "the day was perfect." She explained that "everyone we love and care about was there. It was as fun and meaningful as we ever could have hoped."
Based on how happy Drew looks in the People cover shot, we don't think she's exaggerating.
A perfect wedding, and a baby on the way … It seems like everything is going beautifully for Drew. Congrats!

Gary Krause Sustainable Landscaping and Design
Each year millions are spent on designing, building, and maintaining landscapes that use to many unsustainable recourses. This practice does not conserve resources and depletes our water, contaminates the soil and water table and pollutes the air from the use of gas powered equipment.
Gary Krause Landscaping is certified in 'Best Management Practices' for sustainable landscaping from the Green industries Institute so we can better provide alternatives to our clients that reflect a more sustainable approach.
Sustainability in Landscape has many different meanings. Some define a sustainable landscape as a discipline that emphasizes plant health, soil condition, water quality, and resource conservation. To be sustainable does not mean the elimination of fertilizers, synthetic compounds, petroleum based products and gas powered equipment. Rather, sustainability means the creation of outdoor spaces that utilize the three R's, 'reduce recycle reuse'. A sustainable landscape creates a natural and balanced relationship between the natural and man made environment.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - Alex Kirk scored seven of his 15 points in an early New Mexico run to help the No. 17 Lobos beat downstate rival New Mexico State 73-58 on Saturday.
Kendall Williams added 15 points, seven assists and a career-high eight rebounds for the Lobos (11-0), while Chad Adams had 13 points and 10 rebounds.
Kirk also equaled a career high with five blocks, part of a strong New Mexico defensive performance that limited the Aggies to 32.8 percent shooting from the field.
Daniel Mullings scored 14 to lead New Mexico State (5-5).
The Lobos went on a decisive 11-2 run midway through the first half, turning a 17-14 lead into a 28-16 advantage.
The Aggies pulled to 43-36 early in the second half, but New Mexico regained a double-digit lead with an 11-4 surge.

Real men oppose abortion
In last Sunday's letter, "Why is abortion part of the health-care debate," the writer says: "Being a man, I'll never have to decide on having an abortion. The last thing I would ever do is to try to make that decision for a woman."
As a man, I was disappointed but not surprised by his attitude. Real men are involved in every aspect of the life of a child. Real men are there to counsel the young women in respecting life and not have the abortion.
I truly believe women want a strong godly man to take part in that decision making process. It is the feminization of society that tells men "it's none of your business" if the women wishes to have the abortion.
As a "real man," I don't want my tax dollars paying for something I morally don't believe in. I can't force a woman to not have an abortion, and I shouldn't be forced to pay for an abortion.
Those who pride themselves in the killing of the unborn have no soul . Yes there is a God and he doesn't support the killing of the unborn . We have been given the gift of life . What makes the pro abortionists think that they are special but the unborn isn't ? Why should the gift of life be stolen from the unborn ?
The child is 50% of the father. Yet the father has no say. "We have to carry the baby " and "its our body" is what we are told. My problem is its our(the fathers) baby too and they make the decision alone and with legal system supporting the fact the man has no say what so ever.
Since we have no say and the law backs that up, what if the man says to abort, the woman has the baby anyway, why is the man legally accountable to pay the support?
People want pro choice for the woman, yet they are completely satisfied with denning ANY choice for the man.
The Family Law system is, in my opinion, openly and wildly discriminatory. It is pro-mother, anti-family and anti-child. Often , a father's only "right" is to pay child "support".
Well I have a few problems with the system. When the Mothers life is at risk (which I just wittnessed recently). Yes the abortion should be carried out without anybodys concent. Other than that if a women feels she can bot take care of the baby. I'd rather see ther baby aborted then having that child grow up with a poor set of roll models (parents).
Only an overbearing, controlling man would call someone a "real man" for trying to control a woman's decision about her own body.
It's a decision involving another body inside the mother's body. The body of the fetus was invited into the mother's body by her willful actions.
Why does it seem so ghastly to kill your child after the process of birth, but such an untouchable "right" prior to birth?
It's not a rhetorical question. I welcome your feedback.
What right does the woman have to kill "the mans" child? Never mind, I know the answer, she has every right to kill his child and he has NO CHOICE. It seams that the woman is the controller of death in this situation.
The woman is the controller of her own body and any medical procedure she wishes to have.
You believe it is murder, I do not. I am not talking about late term abortions. Once a fetus is viable to live outside the womb, it is a living being. 6 weeks gestation, not murder in my book.
AtownParent :
"Only an overbearing, controlling man would call someone a "real man" for trying to control a woman's decision about her own body."
How could anyone feel that the unborn have no right to life ? What if some one decides that you have no right to life ? Hitler decided for many years ago . You could be the victim because of age , religion or handicap at some point . Moral values have declined and life has been devalued . Rampant abortion is the proof of that devaluing .
We are committed to the fundamental belief that the intentional killing of another person is wrong.
Thanks for the reply.
So it's an issue of viability. What about adult humans dependent on ventilators, temporarily or permantly? Without the ventilator, they are non-viable. Should we be able to kill them for matters of lack of want, because they are burdensome or inconvenient?
I absolutely agree that every man and woman should be able to control their own body. But again, this is a seperate body temporarily invited inside another. Shouldn't that seperate body have the right to control their own body, and determine their own right to live and to die?
Carmen, you mention counseling the woman. How about PREVENTION in the form of counseling the man AND the woman involved. The male is 50 percent responsible for the prevention of unintended pregnancy.
I'd much rather see a zygote aborted than read about a child being starved until they weigh only 12 lbs. at 10 years old, forced to live in a closet in their own feces and urine, beaten with a wire hanger, burned, mutilated, thrown across a room, jumped up & down upon, strangled, sodomized, raped, eyes gouged out, scalded, acid poured on them, beaten for days at a time, etc., etc., etc. usually by druggie mothers and their "boyfriends". All these things and more happen EVERY DAY in our so-called civilization.The object should not be just to get children born but to mentor them throughout their childhood so these horrendous thing don't happen. Are you willing to step up to the plate to protect all the children who will be born to women who never really wanted them in the first place? "Real men" would.
Furthermore, until you can become pregnant, you have no right to an opinion on the subject.
I think you mean "spayed". At any rate, the aforementioned abused children are eventually murdered. Their short lives are filled with misery. A zygote feels no pain.
I do, however agree with you that something needs to be done with "people" that breed indiscriminately. I strongly disagree that abortion is the severest form of child abuse. You should read the paper more often.
When technology improves and we are able to care for the "unborn" outside the mothers womb, will the "man/father" have the right to care for the child or will the mother cont to wield the right to abort even if the father wants the child ? Curious as to what your thoughts are.

|HBC owner may buy Linens 'n Things
|Written by Business Wire (PR)
TORONTO - The U.S. owner of Hudson's Bay Co. (HBC) is reportedly negotiating the purchase of the Canadian division of insolvent home furnishings retailer Linens 'n Things.
Reuters reported this week that Hilco Consumer Capital, a Toronto-based private equity firm, is also interested in finding a way to salvage the Linens 'n Things stores in Canada. The U.S. parent went into bankruptcy protection last spring.
According to the report, NRDC Equity Partners of Purchase, New York, which acquired HBC this summer, already owns other home furnishings chains, including Home Outfitters in Canada and Fortunoff in the U.S.
A spokeswoman for NRDC is quoted as saying its retail division "consistently reviews acquisition opportunities that can potentially add value to our existing portfolio of brands."

Chicago Bears
Chicago Bears news, rumors and injuries
Bears | Kevin White talking to Larry Fitzgerald
Wed, 01 Jul 2015 18:10:35 -0700
Chicago Bears WR Kevin White sought advice from Arizona Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald at the NFL Rookie Symposium.
Fantasy Tip: White has all the physical tools he needs to succeed, but it could take him a while to learn some of the subtleties to playing the receiver position in the NFL. Still, he should eventually take over the No. 2 receiving job. Stash him as a WR5, and he could pay dividends as the season goes on.

Bears | Pernell McPhee a lot to handle
Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:57:08 -0700
Chicago Bears LB Pernell McPhee has supposedly wreaked havoc on the Bears' defense this offseason. McPhee is mainly expected to be used as a pass rusher, but could also drop into coverage at times.

Bears | Ka'Deem Carey wants to be No. 2 back
Thu, 25 Jun 2015 18:43:15 -0700
Chicago Bears RB Ka'Deem Carey said he is excited about the competition at the running back position and is focused on learning offensive coordinator Adam Gase's playbook and becoming RB Matt Forte's primary backup.

Bears | Jarvis Jenkins could start

Chicago Bears DE Jarvis Jenkins could be one of the starting defensive ends in the team's 3-4 defensive alignment this season.

Bears | Eddie Royal working with QB
Mon, 22 Jun 2015 11:27:32 -0700
Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal said he has been working with QB Jay Cutler this offseason in order to build chemistry. Royal said they have been watching extra film and doing extra work on the field. Royal recorded 91 receptions, 980 yards and five touchdowns when they both played for the Denver Broncos in 2008.
Fantasy Tip: Royal had chemistry with Cutler earlier in his career and will try to resume that chemistry with the Bears. Royal probably will not start for the Bears but should have a solid role in the offense. Royal could be a late-round option in point-per-reception leagues and has the potential to have more value.

Bears | Pernell McPhee doing more in Chicago
Sun, 21 Jun 2015 18:02:34 -0700
Chicago Bears LB Pernell McPhee will drop back in coverage and rush the passer this season. He dropped back in coverage just once with the Baltimore Ravens last year. "It's a big difference," McPhee said Thursday, June 18. "I'm usually a pass rusher, and they brought me in to do other things, make the defense real difficult so you don't know who's coming."

Bears | CHI needs group effort at WR
Sat, 20 Jun 2015 16:21:53 -0700
The Chicago Bears will be counting on a group effort from WRs Kevin White, Eddie Royal and Marquess Wilson to make up for Brandon Marshall's lost production. WR Alshon Jeffery is expected to fully takeover as the No. 1 receiver in Chicago.
Fantasy Tip: Jeffery will enter the 2015 season as a top-5 receiver, while White is almost sure to be over drafted in his rookie season. Royal already has some chemistry with Jay Cutler from his time in Denver, and he should be considered as a sleeper heading into drafts.

Bears | Kevin White should return for TC
Fri, 19 Jun 2015 14:39:31 -0700
Chicago Bears WR Kevin White (undisclosed) should be available for training camp July 30, according to head coach John Fox. White missed all of minicamp with an undisclosed medical issue.
Fantasy Tip: White still isn't considered the No. 2 wide receiver opposite Alshon Jeffery, but he should be able to gain some ground during training camp. We don't know what exactly his medical issue is, but it doesn't sound too serious as Fox also said White is day-to-day. He should be taken as a speculative WR4-WR5.

Bears | Martellus Bennett at minicamp
Tue, 16 Jun 2015 17:41:09 -0700
Chicago Bears TE Martellus Bennett participated in minicamp practice Tuesday, June 16, after skipping the first three weeks of organized team activities. Bennett told reporters he expects to be at training camp on reporting day in late July.
Fantasy Tip: Bennett is a safe top-five tight end selection, even with the Bears implementing a new offense.

Bears | Jay Cutler confident in new offense
Tue, 16 Jun 2015 14:37:30 -0700
Chicago Bears QB Jay Cutler said he's feeling great about the offense under new offensive coordinator Adam Gase. "I know the guys like it. I know the receivers like it," Cutler said. "TE Martellus Bennett is going to love it when he gets involved. We just have to keep heading in the direction we are going and keep studying. We are not where we want to be yet."
Fantasy Tip: No matter how much Cutler talks up the offense, he's still not worthy of QB1 consideration. He's proven to be one of the most unreliable quarterbacks both in real life and in fantasy football. He's a solid backup quarterback for your fantasy squad(s).

Bears | Kevin White not at minicamp
Tue, 16 Jun 2015 11:17:33 -0700
Chicago Bears WR Kevin White (undisclosed) did not practice at minicamp Tuesday, June 16. Head coach John Fox said White is day-to-day, but he did not disclose White's injury.
Fantasy Tip: Whatever the injury or ailment is, the fact that White is merely day-to-day is encouraging, and implies that White should not miss extended time. White is expected to start opposite Alshon Jeffery this season. While there may be some rookie hiccups along the way, he has WR3 upside in his first NFL season.

Bears | Martellus Bennett expected at minicamp
Mon, 15 Jun 2015 12:34:35 -0700
Chicago Bears TE Martellus Bennett is expected to participate in minicamp this week after skipping organized team activities in previous weeks. Bennett has wanted a new contract.
Fantasy Tip: Bennett may be ready to get down to business, but that doesn't mean he's happy with his current contract now. As long as he plays and is healthy, he's still a top-five tight end candidate for the 2015 season.

Extract DNA from berries at the Biodesign Institute Homecoming tent
Visit the Biodesign tent #W-414 before the Oct. 27 game, between 9 a.m. to noon
October 19, 2012
When children stop by the Biodesign Institute tent at the ASU Homecoming Block Party, volunteers will ask them if they have ever eaten strawberry DNA. In response, they will likely scrunch up their faces and shake their heads no.
Of course, we have eaten DNA – whether plant or animal – we just don't usually think of food in those terms. Food, like all living matter, is in fact bursting with DNA that serves as its life blueprint, making a strawberry very different from a steak.
"This DNA activity is a great way for us to make science real for kids and their parents," said Jeanette Nangreave, tent volunteer and assistant research scientist in Biodesign Institute's Center for Single Molecule Biophysics. "Some of our research at Biodesign is focused on DNA, so we hope that extracting DNA at our tent gives visitors an idea of what we do and some excitement about science."
Scientists at the Biodesign Institute draw on the marvels of life to come up with discoveries to help solve global challenges, such as a fuel from bacteria or tests that detect early indicators of diseases, like cancer. Projects focus on making an impact on four areas: the immune system, early disease detection, sustainable systems, and security systems.
"In our research, we frequently extract DNA from human cells to discover if those cells are cancerous," said Assistant Research Technologist and tent volunteer Kristen Lee, who works in Biodesign's Center for Biosignatures Discovery Automation. "Maybe this activity will stimulate enough interest so that these children can continue our research when they are older."
Lab items from some of Biodesign's research centers will be on hand for those interested in hearing about cutting-edge science at ASU. Some of Biodesign's staff will be leading visitors in the block party's Zone W through extracting DNA from strawberries.
The fruit will not be used to nourish the body, but the activity will stimulate the mind. Strawberries have eight copies of their seven chromosomes in each of their many cells, making them perfect for this experiment.
Here's how the activity works:
First, children are given cut strawberries in a small baggie and are encouraged to squash it up between their fingers. Next, volunteers add a soapy solution to help break up the fruit's cellular walls. Then, more strawberry squishing ensues, which makes the strawberry cells break down even further. This allows the fruit's DNA to be accessible. A dash of salt causes the cellular debris to bunch up. Next, juice from the red liquid is strained into a clear test tube, and a small amount of cold isopropyl alcohol tops off the concoction, causing the DNA to bunch together. Inserting a wooden stir stick pulls out ghostly white clump of DNA that is placed into a small plastic vial that, when closed, dangles from maroon- or gold-colored yarn, completing the genetic necklace.
Visit the Biodesign tent (#W-414) at the ASU Homecoming Block Party before the game – from 9 a.m. to noon – on Saturday, Oct. 27. For more about homecoming, visit http://homecoming.asu.edu/.

The Denver Broncos just can't escape the shadow of Tim Tebow. Minutes after the Baltimore Ravens upset the Broncos 38-35 in double overtime Saturday to eliminate Denver from the playoffs, Tebow's brother Peter -- who currently lives in Denver -- celebrated the Broncos' defeat on Twitter. The Broncos have a complicated history with Tim Tebow. They drafted him in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft, and Tebow led them to a playoff upset of the Pittsburgh Steelers with an 80-yard game-winning touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas in his second season. Despite that success, the Broncos pursued and eventually signed prized free agent quarterback Peyton Manning in the offseason and traded Tebow to the New York Jets. Tebow suffered through a season with more off-field controversy than on-field production in New York, completing just six passes for 39 yards and averaging 3.2 yards per carry. After such a rough year, Peter Tebow's tweet seems to confirm there are some lingering hard feeli...
