The President of the United States regularly referred to the fact that he was a constitutional lawyer during both of his political campaigns. He was quite fond of references to the fact that he taught constitutional law. What is clear is that either this President was absent from his own classes when he addressed the First Amendment's Freedoms of Press, Association, Speech and the Free Exercise of Religion, or he simply has no respect for them.

WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - I write as a private citizen, a constitutional lawyer and a deeply concerned American. I love this Nation. I still believe in its promise of liberty. Like most of you I have been watching the unfolding scandals which are engulfing this Administration with growing alarm.
Like most of you, I insist upon knowing what really happened on that fateful evening in Benghazi, Libya - and what really happened afterward. People died and someone lied. The only question is who lied and when. No-one is happy to make such an assertion. I certainly am not.
This evil terrorist act had nothing to do with a You Tube Video. It was perpetrated by Jihadists and we know it. This Administration knew it, early on, and concocted the entire story as a deflection. The question is why - and the American people have a right to an answer.
Like most of you, I insist upon a full explanation concerning the abuse of office committed by agents of the Internal Revenue Service. They engaged in a systematic and widespread pattern of viewpoint discrimination. There is no doubt that they singled out applicants for denial or delay of non-profit status based solely upon their political positions. That kind of action is unconstitutional and threatens our political order.
As someone who obtained many such exemptions for legal clients over the years I know what is involved in the process. I also led several exempt organizations and know how it all works. There has always been a political side to the process. That is not the issue. This is about much more than an underling in the IRS denying an exemption. This is about a systemic abuse of power by the Internal Revenue Service. It strains credibility for representatives of the Obama Administration to claim they were unaware of it.
Attorney General Holder's announcement on Tuesday that the Justice Department is undertaking an investigation of the IRS based upon this pattern and practice does not give me confidence. My doubts concerning their capacity to do so are enhanced by the news that the same Justice Department abused its own power in recent actions taken against reporters for the Associated Press.
We must insist upon a full accounting from Eric Holder and his Justice Department. His announcement on Tuesday that he had recused himself from the underlying matter is insufficient. The execution of a secret subpoena to obtain the phone records of AP reporters without any notification constitutes an unconstitutional abuse of power. It smacks of the tactics of a police state and not a democratic republic.
If there is any silver lining in the cloud in these scandals, it is the fact that the Press has awakened to the serious nature of the tactics being used by this Administration. The questions posed to Presidential spokesman Jay Carney from reporters on both Monday and Tuesday, from media sources across the political spectrum, demonstrates that the sleeping giant has finally awakened.
I watched Presidential Press Secretary Jay Carney do a horrible job on Monday May 13, 2013 and Tuesday, May 14, 2013, as he tried to defend the Administration's handling of these scandals. It would have been pitiful to watch, if the stakes were not so high. But they are and it was more than pitiful. It was offensive.
The President of the United States - whom Carney represents in these briefings - regularly referred to the fact that he was a constitutional lawyer during both of his political campaigns. He was quite fond of references to the fact that he taught constitutional law.
What is clear is that either this President was absent from his own classes when he addressed the First Amendment's Freedoms of Press, Association, Speech and the Free Exercise of Religion, or he simply has no respect for them.
His administration does not abide by the safeguards to liberty required of all elected officials. It is not enough for the President to say he was not aware of any of it. He either was, and he is not telling us the truth, or he was not, and he is doing a very poor job of leading the Nation.
Now, let me be clear - as President Obama likes to say so often. The issues at stake in the behavior of the State Department, the Internal Revenue Service and the Justice Department are serious and consequential. They may be criminal. That is not something I am happy to write. My concerns do not come from the fact that I disagree with this Administration over many fundamental issues. I do.
Rather, they come from the reality that we are talking about the United States Constitution. No President, no United States Administration is above the Rule of Law. Among the numerous idiomatic phrases we use in common speech is the phrase "a house of cards". It refers to a structure, organization or enterprise which is weak and can easily come undone. Is the Scandal Ridden Obama Administration Becoming a House of Cards?

CIPR needs a preacher to convert us
These are tough but heady times for public relations. Tough because of all the change that's going on around us as the greater commercial potential of what we do becomes clearer, and heady for the very same reason.
Which is why the election for the presidency of the CIPR this year is seeing more comment and seems to have attracted greater focus then in recent years. The contest between Dr Jon White and Stephen Waddington seems to pit two different kinds of practitioner against each other. Similarities perhaps, but one very much a moderniser prepared to stick his neck out, and the other seemingly favouring leadership by consensus.
Firstly, let me identify – loud and clear – a reason why this post may well be tainted: I have known and worked with Waddington for the best part of 20 years, while I've never even met Dr White. Big, fat, overpowering disclaimer right there.
For that reason, I've hesitated in writing this post. I couldn't see a way of doing it without urging 'Stephen knows what he's doing, has the industry's best interests at the centre of his heart and won't rest until he has made a difference'. But I'll try.
Here's a honest assessment of the two candidatures on pixels. Firstly, Jon White's statement impressed me by being progressive and shrewd. It touts a balanced, measured and sensible approach to capitalising on the CIPR's progress of recent years by listening to members, assessing needs and then acting on them accordingly. It centres on the PR 2020 report, which seems wholly comprehensive and charts in good outline the challenges that opportunities of public relations today, and how to address them. In short, a proven methodology and it leaves no stone unturned.
By some contrast, Stephen Waddington's statement is starker and, dare I say, bolder. I'd expect nothing less from him. Phrases like "shift from a craft to a profession", "assert the role of public relations as a management discipline" and "displace Max Clifford as the mouthpiece" are vintage Waddington. He has also been true to his 'manifesto'by engaging in debate with the industry rather than just publishing a manifesto– sleeves rolled up, dived in head first. Compare the extent to which the two have engaged in debate in the industry in recent years and Waddington clearly has an extensive track record with probably more content contributed and more ground covered than the very vast majority of his peers. Even if I had to tell him occasionally that the world might get fed up of seeing that big bald head on their screens all the time.
Anyway, it's a competition between two guys who clearly know their onions and have set their sights on driving further change within the CIPR to build on its transition in recent years. Bring it on. Waddington, though, seems to have set our more clearly not just what we would do, but how he would drive through change and why that continued evolution is needed.
Waddington is one of the biggest preachers we have in PR about the opportunities this industry faces and what it needs to do to capitalise. He's preaching, though, to an audience that may get it, but needs to be persuaded to sign up fully to the heady changes that are, I believe, inevitable.
The preacher is often preaching to the converted, but he's got a good deal more people to convert yet.
Best of luck to both and thanks for giving us a contest worthy of an industry in transition.

Hana Restaurant
Good food, relaxed ambiance and friendly service. This is Hana.
I've always held a fascination for hole-in-the-wall finds, that's why I've been meaning to visit Little Tokyo for the longest time. This quaint district in Pasong Tamo, Makati is gradually becoming famous through word-of-mouth for its authentic Japanese restaurants and bars – and yes, an atmosphere that feels like a setting taken right out of suburban Tokyo. But for some reason it was only recently that I managed to go there. When I did, though, I was rewarded with a great dining experience and a quick realization that my long wait was definitely worth it.
My colleague and I went to Little Tokyo for a late lunch, so most of the establishments were closed (they evidently open at night). We decided to try Hana, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the modest and unassuming façade gave way to a cozy interior that was effortlessly intimate and homey. There were about four or five tables, with a traditional Japanese table at the end of the room, and an open kitchen at the side. The muted yellow lamps overhead casted a warm glow to the place, and a series of photos depicting Japanese baseball players decorated the walls. A number of Nihongo newspapers sat in one corner, and a TV airing a local Japanese channel was perched in another. If it wasn't for the conversations in Filipino at our neighboring tables, I would have almost thought we were in Japan!
Considering that we were already past hungry (read: starving) at the time, we were really grateful that they served our food fast, but no less delicious. We decided on Sukiyaki (P290) and, because the staff beamingly recommended Cubic Steak (P390) too, we gave that a go as well.
The sukiyaki had a generous portion of meat strips, side by side with vegetables and tofu. It had just the right mix of flavors, and everything on the plate had a delightfully soft texture.
Cubic Steak
The cubic steak had little blocks of meat – as the name of the dish implies – on a base of hash brown. The meat was surprisingly tender, and the subtle taste of the potato complimented that.
Our order already came with two bowls of rice, miso soup, and glasses of milk tea for both of us.
It may be because of the sumptuous meal, or the casual feel of the place, or the warm service extended to us, but for me, I can associate visiting Hana with how I feel when spending a lazy weekend – I take the time to savor everything.
Hana is located at Little Tokyo, Don Chino Roces Avenue, San Lorenzo Village, Makati. The restaurant is open from 10am to 11pm. Call 339-3855.

Tiger fans,
It's been a little longer since my last post, but that does not mean things have slowed down over here with women's basketball. If you have not been able to make it out to a game yet, there is still time. We are only 3 games in (not counting exhibition), and conference play does not start up at home until January 5, 2014.
We won both of our exhibition games after beating Quincy on Nov. 5th, and after our first away game against St. Louis on Nov. 8th followed by two home games (SIUE Nov.10, Evansville Nov.14) we are 3-0 on the season.
I typically do not travel with the team when they are away, but I followed the St. Louis game on my iPhone with the ESPN app. You can download this app for free, make an account, and add the Missouri Women to your favorite teams too if you want to keep up with them on the road. It is always crucial getting that first road win, and I am glad we were able to.
So far the most exciting home game to me has been our latest against Evansville. I thought everyone played well and played well together. It was a good chance for the crowd to see what I see our bench do well in practice day in and day out.
Morgan Stock has been shooting lights out from the 3-point line these past few weeks in practice, and she matched her career high of 15 last game which she just beat this season after a career high of 7 points last season. We have a lot of good 3-point shooters on our team, and I think after Morgan Eye's success last year, she won't be the only name buzzing on the other schools' scouting reports.
We honored our hometown heroes last game as we celebrated Veteran's Day that week. Our program featured sophomore forward Darian Saunders whom I had the joy of writing about for the feature story. In the interview with Darian I learned a lot about heroes she holds close to her heart, and how she wants be a hero in the lives of others as well.
Her dad serves in the U.S. military, and my parents are retired Air Force. We honored our military heroes on Veteran's Day, but I invite you all this week to honor anyone who has been a hero in your life, as well as think about how you can be a hero in anyone else's life. We all could use a hero every now and then.
Come be our heroes in the stands tomorrow night at 7pm as we seek another win against Southeast Missouri State on our home court at Mizzou Arena.

See below for an introduction to Chile locations, permits, when to shoot, costs, talent, crews, fringes and premiums, equipment, art department, studios, post facilities, visas and work permits, film friendly hotels, transport, communications and safety advice.
Film Locations. Chile is as long as the US is wide so you can find a wide variety of location looks including mountains, beaches and rugged coastline, lakes, rivers, old growth forests, farmland, urban and rural settings, volcanoes, desert, glaciers, beaches, islands, lighthouses, modern architecture, colonial looks, and American suburbs. The north is home to the Atacama Desert, the world's driest desert. The centre of Chile has a more Mediterranean climate. The south of Chile is more temperate with heavy winter snowfalls in the Andes. Farther south in Patagonia you can find a variety of stunning mountain, glacier, island and desert locations. Summers have long shoot days and winters are long and cold. Chile is home to some of the world's most stunning car commercial roads such as Los Caracoles Road. Also of interest is the colorful stilt village of Chiloe. Chile has the world's largest swimming pool. The remotely located Easter Island, famous for its stone heads, is also part of Chile.
Chile Film Location Permits. No extraordinary restrictions or rules apply. Permits for shooting in the city take normally no more than five working days. Some parts of Santiago are a little harder to permit and shooting is restricted to weekends. Please contact us for location specific information.
When to shoot? Chile does not really have a rainy season but the cooler time of the year runs from from May to August. The dry season means no rain in many parts of the country. The Chilean climate is determined by the latitude, the proximity to the sea and the altitude. Chile has four marked seasons during the year and up to fourteen hours of sunlight during the summer months. For monthly weather statistics please see here.
Festival of the Virgen del Carmen is celebrated in the small Atacama desert town of La Tirana from June 12-17 every year. The Tapati Festival takes place on Easter Island every year in February.

Michael Pringle, 25, was last seen in the Loch Awe area in Argyll on Sunday.
He and his father had visited a pub near Oban and were returning to their campsite when they became separated.
The body of Mr Pringle, from Kilmarnock in Ayrshire, was found today by divers searching the River Orchy between Kilchurn Castle and the village of Loch Awe.
A police statement said: "There would appear to be no suspicious circumstances surrounding his death. However, a post-mortem will be carried out in due course."

[1]A new type of beer cup from Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:BUD[2]) aims to make drinkers more friends.
The cups — available from the company's Brazilian Budweiser arm — makes two people Facebook (NASDAQ:FB[3]) friends when clinked together in a toast, Cnet reports[4].
The new "Buddy Cup" uses Facebook profiles — which have to be synced beforehand to mobile phones — to connect the social media accounts. The cups contain an embedded microchip that records the profiles and shares it with Facebook via the phone.
The new twist on friend-making is called "The More Buds, The More Friends" and purports to help people continue the friendships that begin at parties and bars. By connecting people, the cup helps drinkers remember who they were with the night before.

Politics, the Farm Bill and Your Next MealBy Ben LaCross
Parched and burnt cornfields, hayfields as yellow as the sun and chalky, dry soil are images we've seen from the record-setting drought of 2012. The farm bill is supposed to be the safety net for agriculture, especially in catastrophic disaster years such as this. But alas, chances of passing a new farm bill, which is set to expire on Sept. 30, is wilting as fast as a Midwestern cornstalk.
Now, only a handful of days remains on the legislative calendar before the election.
The farm bill was growing strong and steady through June. The Senate, under the leadership of Agriculture Committee Chairwoman Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) and Ranking Member Pat Roberts (R-Kan.), passed a strong, bipartisan bill. This bill showed real promise of reform and savings. The bill cut out the direct payment program, an antiquated system of risk management for farmers. Crop insurance was strengthened and expanded, ensuring that farmers would have to have "skin in the game" for their risk management needs.
The nutrition title, which makes up well over 80 percent of all farm bill spending, was also reformed. The days of lottery winners who still receive food stamps would be gone. Conservation would be strengthened, allowing farmers to partner with the federal government to grow their environmental stewardship.
Agriculture understands the importance of being fiscally responsible. Farmers are ready to do their part to reduce the national deficit. In fact, this bill would have saved taxpayers more than $23 billion, compared to previous farm bills.
The bipartisan House Agriculture Committee-passed bill, crafted by Chairman Frank Lucas (R-Okla.) and Ranking Member Collin Peterson (D-Minn.), would have saved taxpayers even more. But, like the fields that never benefited from timely rains to save their crops, House leadership dealt what could amount to a drought-like blow by not bringing up the farm bill for a timely vote.
Due to that lack of political urgency, farmers are now facing another potential disaster. This time, though, we can't blame Mother Nature. This catastrophe is man-made.
Northern Michigan experienced record warmth for more than seven days in the middle of March. While 85 degree temps were welcomed after a long winter, we fruit farmers knew we were in for trouble. The hot weather awoke our trees from dormancy, pushing flower buds to mature four to six weeks early. As the weather patterns returned to normal, so did the cold, freezing temperatures, and they froze out the majority of the fruit grown in Michigan, my cherries included.
Tart cherries, the fruit you enjoy in pie, and the crop my family relies on for the majority of our harvest, is not eligible for crop insurance. Our industry has been challenging USDA's Risk Management Agency to expand crop insurance to our fruit, but the wheels of bureaucracy seem to have been stuck in the mud.
The Senate-passed farm bill contained provisions to expand crop insurance to help farmers like me manage risk when weather catastrophes are out of our control. Much of the proposed legislation would help farmers who've been affected by this year's drought, as well. Yet the House still has not scheduled a vote on this bill.
Farmers certainly aren't the only people affected by the delayed passage of the farm bill. Twenty-three million people – one in every 12 working American's – work in agriculture. Agriculture expands foreign trade, and is the only industry with a positive balance of trade.
Think, also, of the millions of schoolchildren and families in need that this bill helps to feed. Last year, the Agriculture Department reported that one in six Americans were "food insecure." At one point or another last year, these folks weren't sure where their next meal would come from. If it weren't for the farm bill's nutrition programs, many more might struggle to eat.
The droughts and other natural disasters may have done damage beyond repair to this year's harvests, but the House could still breathe life back into this bill. It's not too late.
Ben LaCross is a fruit grower in northern Michigan. He is a member of the Michigan Farm Bureau board of directors and is immediate past chairman of the AFBF Young Farmers & Ranchers Committee.

Rabat — The interim government in Mali is working toward the return to normal political conditions and holding democratic elections once the military operation is over.
The situation is almost stable in Timbuktu and Gao, said Malian Communications Minister and government spokesperson Manga Dembele on Saturday (March 23rd) during the Global Growth Conference at the Amadeus Institute in Rabat, Morocco.
"The Malian government and its partners are controlling the situation after the armed groups were expelled from the two cities," Dembele stated. "We're currently carrying out combing operations to cleanse the two cities once and for all of terrorists and outlawed militants."
"We won't tolerate any armed or terrorist groups regardless of their type," he added.
The African and French forces have defeated armed groups in northern Mali and expelled them outside provincial capitals, Dembele explained. "Now the African and French forces are chasing the last armed groups in Kidal," he said.
The Malian government is working on preparing for the post-military operation stage and on getting past the transition as soon as possible.
"We're committed to holding democratic elections next July, and it's going to be presidential and legislative elections at the same time," the minister said. "As members of the interim government, we've pledged not to run for this election because we can't be opponent and referee at the same time."
He noted that neither Mali's interim President Dioncounda Traoré nor coup leader Amadou Sanogo would run in the expected presidential election. He noted that Sanogo is a military officer and not a civilian official.
Dembele told Magharebia that the mandate of the African and French forces currently present in Mali would be transferred to a UN peacekeeping force.
The two-day Global Growth Conference discussed the security situation in Mali, the Sahel and the Maghreb, and its effect on growth and investment in the region. It also examined the Euro zone crisis and the global economic situation.
Four hundred political and economic decision-makers from 19 countries took part in the event.
The most prominent recommendations made by participants were to accelerate Maghreb integration and hold a global conference on security in Mali and Sahel.
"The institute wants to open a new international forum for dialogue and exchange in the economic field, like MEDays forum which is organised by Amadeus Institute every year in Tangier, and which has become an essential event for political decision-makers in southern countries," Brahim Fassi Fihri, head of the Amadeus Institute, told Magharebia.
The 2012 MEDays focused on the Mali crisis, the terrorist threat to the Maghreb, post-Kadhafi Libya and Sahel security. The 5th edition of the influential forum also discussed the global economic crisis and prospects for development in Africa.
"The Amadeus Institute organised a number of seminars and forums over the past several years in order to alert the international community to the dilemma of the Sahel and the Sahara," Fassi Fihri told Magharebia.
He added: "The situation in the Sahel and the Sahara is among the most important security issues for the international community [...]. This region, an area of up to 2,000km on the outskirts of Europe, is witnessing a unique overlap of political and geostrategic problems that makes it like a bag of gunpowder."

Sport Captain Programme fosters volunteerism
Over 500 secondary students pledged to perform voluntary service for sports activities today (October 9) at the Sport Captain Commissioning and Prize Presentation Ceremony 2004 held at Shek Kip Mei Park Sports Centre.
Having received training during the summer holidays on sports administration and acquired basic knowledge of organising sports competitions and events, these students were commissioned as Sport Captains after taking an oath to promote sports development through voluntary work.
The Sport Captain Programme is one of the subsidiary programmes of the School Sports Programme organised by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) with support from the Education and Manpower Bureau and national sports associations. It mainly targets secondary school students, but teachers and parents are also welcome to join.
Speaking at the ceremony, the Assistant Director of Leisure and Cultural Services (Leisure Services), Mr Johnny Woo, said the aim of the Sport Captain Programme is to train up a body of student leaders who, filled with enthusiasm in sports, will perform voluntary service at sports events and promote sports development in schools.
The Sport Captains commissioned today will receive further training, offered with the support of respective national sports associations, on refereeing and assistance in coaching. Such training currently covers basketball, football, volleyball, badminton, table tennis, fencing and rowing.
Mr Woo also hoped the Sport Captain Programme would pave the way for students to become coaches, sport administers or event organisers and to apply their expertise to promote sports development in Hong Kong.
The programme has been well received since its introduction in 2001. There are nearly 3,000 participants, including some who have continued to contribute their time and effort after graduating from secondary school.
Apart from promoting and organising sports activities in schools, the Sport Captains have also provided service in local and international sports events organised by the LCSD and national sports associations.
During today's ceremony, 12 Sport Captains who had provided over 120 hours of service were awarded golden award certificates.
Outstanding athletes who had been appointed School Sports Ambassadors under the School Sports Programme were present to share their experiences in sports services with the newly appointed Sport Captains. They included Mr Wong Hop-hi of the Windsurfing Association of Hong Kong, Mr Ko Wing-sang and Mr Cheng Kam-hing of the Hong Kong Basketball Association, Mr Law Hiu-fung and Ms Lee Ka-man of the Hong Kong, China Rowing Association, Ms Cheung Yi-nei of the Hong Kong Amateur Fencing Association, Ms Ng Ka-shun and Mr Wong Wai-hong of the Hong Kong Badminton Association, and Mr Kwong Ngai-shing and Ms Leung Ka-man of the Volleyball Association of Hong Kong, China.

Been fishing the last two days. The Crappie are biting. The weather here has been great this week 40's at night 60's during the day.I've caught 9 Crappie so far,caught nothing in the mornings, all caught around 6P.M.. Can't believe I can't catch anything using live bait, everything was caught on a chartruese curly tail jig.
I miss the days of catching Crappie on jigs within the city limits of any town USA.
I do recall my first encounter with Crappies and quickly learned to not set the hook so hard. In some cases, not all, I would retrieve a pair of lips that would make me laugh each time.
I enjoy catching scrappy Black Crappie as long as my hand and they sure fry up nicely in a thick beer batter at the end of the day accompanied by an ice cold IPA.

Track rider bounces back from disappointing
result in 2011 to win silver months out of Olympic Games
(Melbourne, AUS – April 6, 2012) Canadian versatile
cyclist and international track star Zach Bell, a rider
from Watson Lake, Yukon who currently resides in North
Vancouver, BC won the silver medal in the men's
omnium at the 2012 UCI Track World Championships.
The silver medal comes a day after Canada won two medals
in the women's team pursuit and points races,
adding to the Canadian medal tally now at three.
Bell, who is part of professional cycling squad Team
SpiderTech but races track event with Team Canada, was
sitting in second place of the overall standing as he
entered the second day of competition.
As the day started, Bell posted the second fastest time
of the Individual Pursuit, crossing the line with a
time of 3:20.371, before finishing in second place of
the 100-lap points race.
The suspense at the Melbourne velodrome drew bigger
as, with two consecutive second places, Bell jumped
to the first place of the overall standings tied with
Australian and home crowd favorite rider Glenn O'Shea,
with just one event to go – the 1-kilometre time
As the last ride of the day unfolded, Bell posted the
eighth fastest time of the groupn—1:04.216, and
unfortunately for the Canadian track star, O'Shea
was the fastest of the two, posting a time of 1:03.042
to win the World title.
Bell, who won the omnium silver medal at the 2009 edition
of these World Championships, has been a consistent
and performing rider at international events in the
grueling events. Since the omnium has been presented
at UCI World Cups and World Championships, Bell climbed
on the podium in each but one of the events in which
he took part. In 2011, Bell was crowned the UCI World
Cup Tour Champion, a title that is awarded to the best
overall rider of the entire season, but had failed to
win a World Championships medal.
This season, Bell competed at two UCI World Cup events
–Cali, Colombian and London, GBR–, and stepped
on the podium at both events.
With a ticket to the 2012 Games secured for the men's
omnium, Bell can now focus on his training plan and
preparations for optimal performance. Bell will carry
with him some valuable Olympic experience in the next
four months, as the only rider on the current National
Team showing Olympic Games experience. At the 2008 Olympic
Games in Beijing, Bell came in seventh of the points
"We are extremely proud of this well deserved
silver medal by Zach bell, as well as the two medals
won by the women's team pursuit and the points
race. We have invested significant efforts and energies
in our programs targeted by Own The Podium, such as
the omnium and the women's team pursuit,"
said Jacques Landry, Director of High Performance for
the Canadian Cycling Association."
"Canada is enjoying remarkable success with its
track program, as well as with our other disciplines.
With only four months to go before the Olympic Games,
we are confident our riders are among the best in the
In the men's sprint, Canada did not fare as well
as hoped. Joseph Veloce of Fonthill, ON and Travis Smith
of Calgary, AB, who both raced the men's team
sprint on Wednesday, placed in the 34th and 41st respectively
in the qualifiers, and did not advance to the elimination
Tara Whittenof Edmonton, AB also began her day of racing
in the women's omnium race. Whitten, the two-time
defending World Champion, is currently sitting in eighth
place of the event, after three races.
The 2012 UCI World Championships in Melbourne continues
tomorrow with the conclusion of the women's omnium,
as well as the women's keirin, in which Canadian
rider and 2012 Panamerican Champion Monique Sullivan
of Calgary will participate with the objectives to solidify
her Olympic spot.

Brees leads Saints over Chargers in London
After last year's low-scoring mudfest, the NFL was hoping for some offensive fireworks this time at Wembley Stadium.
New Orleans and San Diego delivered.
Drew Brees went 30-for-41 for 339 yards and three touchdown passes against his former team to lead the Saints to a 37-32 win over the Chargers, putting New Orleans back at .500 and dropping San Diego to 3-5.
The Saints (4-4) held off a late comeback by the Chargers, who came from 37-20 down early in the fourth quarter and were driving for the tying touchdown when linebacker Jonathan Vilma picked off a pass by Philip Rivers with just over a minute to go. Brees took a safety in the final seconds to complete the scoring.
Last year, the New York Giants slogged to a 13-10 win over the Miami Dolphins in London on a rain-soaked field. This time, 83,226 fans at England's showcase venue witnessed high-scoring, offensive football at its best _ with a furious finish to boot.
The game turned into a shootout between Brees and Rivers, his former backup in San Diego, as both teams had more than 400 yards of offense.
Brees, who played his first five seasons for the Chargers before signing as a free agent with New Orleans before the 2006 season, faced his former teammates for the first time.
"This game was not about me proving a point or proving anybody wrong or saying they shouldn't have let me go," Brees said. "We beat a very good team today that needed a victory as badly as we did."
The Saints bounced back from last week's loss to the Panthers and coped just fine without star back Reggie Bush, who underwent surgery on his injured left knee earlier this week.
"It was an important win," coach Sean Payton said. "I thought our players did a good job of handling some of the distractions, and some of the things that come up after a tough loss, and certainly the injuries. We were able to put that aside and still play a good team and get a win today, and that's encouraging."
San Diego's defense never found a way to contain Brees.
Coming into the game leading the NFL with 2,224 yards passing, Brees exploited the Chargers' vulnerable secondary.
"We really just opened up the playbook today and called all the things we feel good about," he said.
But Rivers came up with big numbers too, completing 25 of 40 attempts for 341 yards and three touchdowns to bring his season total to 19 TDs. But while Brees went without an interception, Rivers' one pick on a late drive proved crucial.
"The whole experience was a lot of fun, except the outcome of the game," Rivers said. "It's a tough one to swallow, and 3-5 with a 13-hour flight ahead of us doesn't make it any better."
The Chargers also got a big game from LaDainian Tomlinson, who shrugged off a recent toe injury to rush for 105 yards on 19 carries and catch a touchdown pass. It was only his second 100-yard effort in 12 games, and the 47th of his career.

RALEIGH - United States Attorney George E.B. Holding announced that in federal court here today LONNIE EDWARD RUSSELL, 27, of Fayetteville, North Carolina, pled guilty before United States District Judge Terrence W. Boyle to possession with intent to distribute a quantity of cocaine, in violation of Title 21, United States Code, Section 841(a)(1) and unlawful possession of a firearm, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 922(g)(1).
A Federal Grand Jury returned a Superseding Criminal Indictment on March 18, 2009. On November 20, 2007, and again on November 26, 2007, Fayetteville Police conducted a controlled purchase of powder cocaine from RUSSELL. On November 28, 2007, a search warrant was executed. Officers seized a loaded Taurus .44 caliber revolver, a loaded Taurus .22 caliber pistol and powder cocaine.
The maximum penalty for possession with intent to distribute a quantity of cocaine is up to 20 years imprisonment followed by three years of supervised release and a fine of up to $1,000,000. As an Armed Career Criminal, for the charge of unlawful possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, RUSSELL faces a maximum term of imprisonment of up to a lifetime.
Sentencing has been set for the July 6, 2009, term of court.
Mr. Holding commented: "I want to compliment the investigators in this matter. Their investigation is another piece in the puzzle as we attempt to fight drug traffickers in the Eastern District."
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods which encourages federal, state, and local agencies to cooperate in a unified "team effort" against gun crime, targeting repeat offenders who continually plague their communities.
Investigation of the case was conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Fayetteville Police Department. Assistant United States Attorney Rudolph E. Renfer served as prosecutor for the government

DAMASCUS: Rebels said they shot down a MiG warplane on Thursday as violence whipped across Syria ahead of a UN Security Council meeting on deteriorating humanitarian conditions in the country and along its borders.
Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, meanwhile, caused a storm with a speech at a Non-Aligned Movement summit in Tehran, slamming the Damascus regime as "oppressive" and urging support for the opposition.
"I can confirm that a MiG was shot down this morning by our men using automatic weapons, shortly after taking off from Abu Zohur military airport in Idlib province," the rebel Free Syrian Army chief for the northern province, Colonel Afif Mahmoud Suleiman, told AFP.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said regime forces retaliated by shelling the area, and that eight children and nine women were among at least 20 people killed.
"The two pilots who parachuted from the plane were captured," Suleiman said, adding that 11 MiGs at the airport were also destroyed and that soldiers manning the air base either fled or were killed.
The rebels are now in "full control" of the Abu Zohur base, he said. His claims could not be immediately verified.
"We warn the regime in the coming days that it will face more attacks... we will respond to massacres with a spectacular military response," he said.
On August 13, rebels claimed they downed of a Russian-made MiG in the eastern province of Deir Ezzor, and on Monday rebels said they had shot down a helicopter during fierce fighting in the Damascus suburb of Qaboon.
The Syrian regime acknowledged the first two aircraft crashes but put them down to mechanical failures. It has not yet commented on the latest claim.
The Syrian Observatory had earlier said rebels took over parts of a military airport in Idlib overnight, and that explosions could be heard from inside the facility.
The violence came as a war of words erupted between Egypt's Morsi and Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem in the presence of NAM leaders after their summit began in Iran's capital.
"The revolution in Egypt is the cornerstone for the Arab Spring, which started days after Tunisia and then it was followed by Libya and Yemen and now the revolution in Syria against its oppressive regime," Morsi said in his address.
"Our solidarity with the struggle of Syrians against an oppressive regime that has lost its legitimacy is an ethical duty, and a political and strategic necessity," he added.
With his delegation walking out in protest, Muallem accused Morsi of using his speech to incite further bloodshed in Syria.
'Interference in Syrian affairs'
The speech amounted to "interference in Syria's internal affairs and... incites continued bloodshed in Syria," he said, quoted from Tehran on Syrian state television.
On the sidelines of the summit, Morsi held talks with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on bilateral and regional issues including Syria, an official said.
"They emphasised the need to solve the Syria crisis via diplomacy and to prevent foreign intervention," Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian told Iran's Arabic-language broadcaster Al-Alam.
Thursday's UN Security Council meeting has been called by France and is aimed at "appealing to world conscience and for mobilisation" in the face of the Syrian humanitarian drama, a diplomat said in New York.
Turkey has floated the idea of creating buffer zones within Syria to receive those displaced by the conflict so they do not flood across the borders into neighbouring countries.
Assad, however, scoffed at the idea in an interview on Wednesday with the pro-regime Addounia TV channel.
"Talk of buffer zones firstly is not on the table and secondly it is an unrealistic idea by hostile countries and the enemies of Syria," the embattled leader said.
French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, who will preside over the UN meeting as France heads the Council in August, said on Wednesday the issue of buffer zones would be brought up, even if "it is very complicated."
Syria's neighbours Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey and Iraq were all to send ministers to the meeting.
On the warfront, fierce clashes broke out near a military security headquarters in Deir Ezzor city in eastern Syria, while in the northern city of Aleppo, the contested districts of Salaheddin, Saif al-Dawla and Sukari again saw fierce fighting, the Observatory said.
In Damascus, gunfire reverberated across Qaboon, according to the Syrian Revolution General Council, a network of local activists.
Another activist network, the Local Coordination Committees, said fighting also erupted in the capital's southern Tadamun district.
The Britain-based Observatory reported a total of 128 people -- 77 civilians, 19 rebels and 32 soldiers -- killed nationwide on Wednesday, including at least 44 civilians in Damascus.
In a preliminary toll issued before the Abu Zohur shelling, it said at least eight people were killed on Thursday.
The director of the capital's Tishrin military hospital, meanwhile, said more than 8,000 members of the security forces have been killed since the uprising against Assad's rule broke out in March 2011.
"I estimate that at least 8,000 soldiers and members of the security forces have been killed since the beginning of the crisis," the director, a doctor who also holds the rank of general, told AFP, on condition of not being named.
"Every day, we receive an average of 15 to 20 bodies of soldiers and members of security forces, with the numbers increasing since the beginning of the year."
The Observatory, which says more than 25,000 people have been killed in the 17-month-old uprising, puts the figure of soldiers and members of the security forces killed at nearly 6,500.

I'll have what she's having
Last week I went to a fascinating talk by Mark Earl's basically paraphrasing his latest book "I'll have what she's having" – mapping social behaviour.
In the first place it reminded us of the reassuringly familiar human condition – we are social animals that take cues from each other and behave in ways that align ourselves to certain cohorts, be that through copying behaviour or gravitating to like-minded people. So far so human.
But he also put this into the modern context using a kind of check-list of ways to consider your marketing strategy in language that is pertinent to the modern "social media" space.
I put that in quotes because, having worked in data driven marketing for, ahem, some time, marketers have been creating and trying to influence 'social' groups for as long as I can remember. It's just that we had to guess much more then than we need to now about what is a natural social group and what we can, as marketers, do to influence them.
In "my beginning" there were the Mosaic & Acorn Geo-demographic groupings created in the eighties that ruled. The entire premise of these was that 'birds of a feather flock together' – it's just that at that time, the only data we had available to identify these birds of a feather were details about where they lived and a little bit of Census data. So we had to create our own proxy 'social groups' and direct our marketing at them, making sure our branding appeared where we thought they'd be, go through the media channels we thought they'd be consuming and make sure we made a wise choice between Corrie and Emmerdale Farm. And in doing so, hope we prompted enough thought provoking messages about our product that they'd talk about it and recommended it to each other, socially.
The next evolution was taking what was then called attitudinal data (what they said in surveys), and behavioural data (what they bought) and grouping people in that way. The purchase data might seem to be an intrinsically individual, rather than social, form of targeting. The reality however is that much of our marketing was still based on groups, or segments, that we pushed messages out to, it's just that we overlaid individually pertinent messages at key times. We called it "CRM", you've probably heard of it. It's a bit passé now, we're trying to jazz it up by using digital browsing behaviour.
And now, as well as knowing where they live and what they buy, we know who their friends are and what they think. Because they post it online. So we at Albion Cell are always looking to navigate more destinations for our communications strategy, and take more time understanding where we are pleasing or displeasing our consumers & potential consumers. So it means that those who would traditionally think of themselves as brand marketers are getting to play in the data space too. And all power to them.
The clear approach in this book to Social Media marketing is great. I'm not going to tell you what it is, you have to buy the book for that – the man's got to earn his living.
But, the principles of companies trying effect change on their consumers' behaviour haven't changed. Don't flatter yourself that you're creating a 'social' group – in most instances, as a marketer or brand, you will almost always be using the data knowledge you gain to facilitate an online manifestation of an existing social group. Which is great – putting your brand behind a forum of likeminded people can only be good if they are on your side. But at the end of the day, it's just another means of making sure you are where they and their friends are, so they talk about you in a nice way. Like the Bistro/Wine bars of 1990's.
