lGROS ISLET
Guyana held off Windward Islands to win a nerve-jangling encounter off the last ball and force their way into last night's playoff final of the Caribbean Twenty20.
In pursuit of what should have been a simple target of 118, Guyana started well but lost their way despite a top score of 39 from opener Derwin Christian, and were left needing 12 runs from the last over at the Beausejour Cricket Stadium.
Johnson Charles, entrusted with the final over but only his second of the entire tournament, beat Royston Crandon with the first delivery but then sent down two wides with his unpractised medium pace to give Guyana breathing space.
Crandon shifted the momentum when he put the second legitimate delivery over long on for six and then gathered a couple to deep cover, to reduce the target to two runs from three deliveries.
There was another twist, however, as the right-hander then skied a full toss to Liam Sebastien at cover to depart for 11 and leave the game evenly poised.
Steven Jacobs scampered a single off the fifth delivery before captain Veerasammy Permaul desperately scrambled a leg bye off the final ball of the game, to see Guyana to a dramatic four-wicket victory.
They faced Jamaica last night for a place in tonight's final against heavy favourites Trinidad and Tobago.
No such drama seemed likely when the Windwards stuttered to a disappointing 117 for seven, after they were sent in.
Keddy Lesporis top scored with 26 off 21 balls while captain Darren Sammy (18) and Andre Fletcher (16) got starts but failed to capitalise.
They were undone by the excellent Jacobs who captured two for 12 with his uncomplicated off-spin while fast bowler Ronsford Beaton (two for 25) and West Indies leg-spinner Devendra Bishoo (two for 26) supported with two wickets apiece.
Guyana were off to a sound start, reaching 23 without loss after three overs, with Christian pummelling three boundaries off the third over sent down by Sammy.
Overall, the right-hander faced 41 balls and struck five fours, dominating the opening stand with veteran left-hander Shiv Chanderpaul, who scored eight before retiring hurt in the eighth over at 39 without loss.
Ramnaresh Sarwan entered the fray but appeared out of sorts. He dithered for 15 balls over seven before he was dismissed by Garey Mathurin.
Guyana then wobbled as the Windwards scented an opening, losing Christian and Narsingh Deonarine (three) in the space of 12 deliveries with just nine runs added.
Leon Johnson steadied the nerves somewhat, producing a precious 23 from 14 balls with one four and a six as he helped to post an invaluable 38 off 23 balls for the fourth wicket with Chris Barnwell who made 17.
The partnership swung the pendulum back Guyana's way but Sammy snared a low return catch to remove Johnson in the 18th over, to keep the Windwards in the contest.
Entering the last two overs needing 16, Guyana lost Barnwell slashing to deep cover in an over from left-arm seamer Delorn Johnson that cost just four runs.
All that hard work was undone, however, when Charles failed to hold his nerves in a tantalizing last over.

Stevens crab quota bill faces challenge
FAIRBANKS - A proposal to guarantee seafood processing companies a large share of Alaska's lucrative Bering Sea crab catch faces a challenge on the U.S. Senate floor this week.
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., is expected to offer an amendment to strip the processor shares from the bill, along with several other provisions added by Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens during a committee meeting in September.
"We know there are quite a few senators who have indicated support for that, but we don't know what the vote tally is," Linda Kozak, a Kodiak consultant told the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner.
The proposal would divvy up the $140 million Bering Sea crab fisheries among fishermen based on their catch histories.
But it would also guarantee processors a right to buy a portion of the catch, directing about 90 percent of the harvest to about a dozen established processors. Small-boat fishermen fear the plan would turn them into little more than sharecroppers.
Stevens said Congress has to do something to end the existing "race for fish" that has crab boats going out in dangerous weather to catch as much as they can before the season closes.
Reindeer shooter gets 1 year in jail
ANCHORAGE - A 20-year-old man has been sentenced to a year in jail for shooting five reindeer at a popular Butte tourist attraction.
Caleb G. Bennett also was ordered to pay more than $15,000 in restitution for the Jan. 31 shootings at Williams Reindeer Farm, under terms of a plea bargain announced Friday in Palmer Superior Court.
Bennett entered a no contest plea to three charges related to the shootings, one of them a felony. A former employee of the farm who lives in the Butte, Bennett will be formally sentenced on Feb. 9. Until then, he must remain in 24-hour "sight and sound" custody of his father, Superior Court Judge Beverly Cutler ordered.
At about 5 a.m. the day of the shootings, Bennett rode a snowmachine up to a fence surrounding the reindeer farm. He got off the machine and shot the reindeer with a .22-caliber rifle. Two of the animals were pregnant. One was killed outright, two others had to be euthanized, and two died of their wounds later.
Committee proposing Whitaker replacement
FAIRBANKS - A Republican committee is proposing three names as possible replacements for former state Rep. Jim Whitaker, who stepped down after being elected borough mayor.
A Republican House District committee will forward a recommendation to Gov. Frank Murkowski who has until Nov. 25 to appoint a successor.
The committee has recommended Rich Hughes, Nick Stepovich and Jay Ramras as potential replacements.
Stepovich, 45, is owner of Soapy Smith's Pioneer Restaurant and chair of the Republicans in Whitaker's district.
Whitaker recommended Stepovich to be successor when he first announced his intention to run for mayor, though said Saturday he would support any of the three candidates.
Hughes, 65, is project manager for Tricon Mining's Nolan Creek Deep Channel Project located in the Brooks Range. He considers himself more of a conservative than Whitaker and said he would work to spur resource development.
Ramras, 39, is the owner of three Food Factory restaurants as well as Pike's Landing and Pike's Waterfront Lodge.
Canadian firm strikes gold at Alaska prospect
ANCHORAGE - A Canadian mining company is pursuing plans to develop the Pebble prospect near Iliamna in Southwest Alaska.
Bruce A. Youngman, vice president of Vancouver-based Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd., said test results of minerals at the property showed high-grade gold, copper and molybdenum throughout the site. Geologists consider it one of the world's largest untapped gold and copper deposits.
Because the minerals are under a thin layer of gravel, they're configured in a way that would make for very low cost, open-pit mining, Youngman said.
"It's a world-class mineral district," Youngman told the Alaska Miners Association annual conference in Anchorage.
Anchorage teen dies in shooting
ANCHORAGE - A shooting outside a Spenard video arcade left a 15-year-old girl dead and another boy injured, Anchorage Police said Sunday.
Ann Saephan, a student at East High School, was shot in the head as the car she was riding in pulled away from the arcade, police said. The gunfire came from another car, police said.
Another passenger in the car, 14-year-old Steven Keoviengthong, was wounded and taken to Providence Alaska Medical Center for treatment, police said.
The shooting happened sometime after 9 p.m. Saturday outside the Space Station arcade, police said.

I can report a bug already: when a new post is made on the Active Topics page, the grey numbers of pages at the right of each topic disappear. Also, the main title of each topic also starts redirecting to the first page of the thread instead at the lastpage (for us who have the "last page redirecting" option enabled). Refreshing brings both features back.
Yep we're aware, that's because we have some limitations with LiveTopics that we can't bring every functionality back to the table when giving you a new list of topics if there's a new reply (number of posts per page & whether to open last or first page are personal settings which LiveTopics doesn't know).
It's something we will have to live with for now

TEL AVIV (Dec. 2)
Cairo radio accused Israel today of sinking an unarmed civilian motor-boat in the Gulf of Suez but no formal charge of cease-fire violation has been filed so far. The accusation was made only after Israel officially announced last night that one of its Navy patrol boats sank an Egyptian boat that failed to halt when challenged off the eastern shores of the Israel-held Sinai peninsula some time after midnight last Saturday. Four Egyptian crewmen were drowned. The Israeli announcement said that documents found on the three recovered bodies indicated that the men were on a reconnaissance mission for Egyptian intelligence and also yielded "signs" that they were smuggling hashish. Cairo radio claimed that "only unarmed fishing boats operate in this area" and accused Israel of a "criminal act against unarmed civilians." The three-and-a-half day delay between the incident and the Israeli announcement of its occurrence and the failure of Cairo to mention it until Israel did, indicated that neither side is interested in raising a major issue at this time which might imperil the Suez cease-fire.
Some observers here believe the Egyptians are testing world opinion before acting further but may lodge a protest with the United Nations. The absence of official comment from Washington indicated to some here that the U.S. is waiting to see whether the incident develops or blows over. Apart from last night's brief announcement, no details emerged from official quarters here. A reliable military source told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency today that the documents found on the dead Egyptians showed that they were returning to base after having completed an intelligence mission. The source said the delay in announcing the sinking was caused by the need to study and analyze the documents. He said the Israeli patrol boat had not intended to sink the Egyptian craft but had to open fire after it ignored warning shots. Sources here said hashish was found on the bodies. They said the presence of the drug may have been a cover for an intelligence mission or the Egyptian agents may have been trafficking in narcotics as a sideline.
One observer said the agents may have been paid for their work in hashish instead of cash. One source noted that smugglers' boats have been used in the past to transport Egyptian spies into Israel-held territory. Military sources have reported a great increase in Egyptian intelligence activity during the past month. The Egyptians seem to be seeking information about Israeli positions on the east bank of the Suez Canal and the roads leading to them which have been greatly improved since the cease-fire began. Some sources linked the reports of intelligence activities with reports of large scale Egyptian amphibious maneuvers under the supervision of high ranking Soviet military officers. There have also been reports from foreign sources of heavy deliveries of amphibious craft and equipment to Egypt from Russia. These reports have given rise to speculation that the Egyptians and Russians may be planning a push across the Suez Canal and the Gulf of Suez after the cease-fire ends.

iPhone 5 Has 4G Support, Larger Screen But No NFC
Apple unveils its latest smartphone, the iPhone 5, in San Francisco
Apple has unveiled its newest smartphone, the iPhone 5, which boasts a larger screen, support for 4G Long Term Evolution networks and a brand new eight pin connector.
There were no major surprises from the Cupertino-based company, which also revealed a redesigned interface for iTunes across PCs, Macs, iPads and iPhones. Near Field Communication was a notable absentee from the iPhone 5's feature-set however, as it was widely expected to be included.
Pre-orders for the smartphone can be made from 14 September, while it will be released in the UK one week later on 21 September, the same day as the US.
iPhone 5 Launch
The iPhone 5 boasts a larger screen than its predecessor, with a four inch display that boasts a resolution of 1336 x 640 and can show five rows of icons. It means that it is taller than the iPhone 4S, but also thinner at 7.5mm and 20 percent lighter.
Some applications will receive updates to take advantage of the new display, while others will have a black border at the top and the bottom. As predicted, the iPhone 5 features support for 4G networks, including the one announced by EE yesterday in the UK.
The smartphone is powered by a new Apple A6 chip that makes it twice as fast as the iPhone 4S. Battery life is roughly the same, lasting 225 hours on standby, 40 hours when listening to music, 10 hours on 4G and 8 hours on 3G or Wi-Fi.
There's a new eight megapixel camera that can capture 1080p high-definition video and can take photos while recording, just like the HTC One X. A new 720p front facing camera will improve FaceTime conversations.
Fast as Lightning
Apple confirmed that it will use a new eight-pin connector called lightning, but there will be an adaptor for the old 30-pin connector that has been in use since the third generation iPod. This means that some older accessories can still be used with the iPhone 5.
It will run iOS 6, which includes new Passbook and Maps applications along with the ability to Tweet from anywhere. The software will be rolled-out to all comptabile iDevices next week on 19 September.
iTunes will also be getting an overhaul on the PC, Mac, iPhone and iPad. It will have iCloud built-in, but interestingly, the new version won't be released until October – after the release of the iPhone 5.
The 16GB version of the smartphone will cost $199, the 32GB $299 and the 64GB $399 and will be available in either black or white. However once the iPhone 5 has launched, you will be unable to get your hands on an iPhone 3GS, which has been discontinued.
"This time it had to be all about the hardware as much as software. In this regard, Apple has delivered and then some," commented Ernest Doku, telecoms expert at uSwitch. ""Thinner, lighter and with a 4-inch screen, the iPhone has gone on a diet and come back leaner and faster. The taller screen caters to the crowd that feed off form factor, but still like the ergonomically comfortable width of the 4S."
""Most importantly for the data-hungry, the battery power is supposed to be uncompromised by its new-found 4G capability, which will be ready to go as soon as EE launches it in the UK," he added. ""On the downside, a new connector has thrown a spanner in the works and there was no mention of NFC capability for mobile wallet payments. But Apple typically leaves them wanting more."

Sword of the Stars: The Pit – Mind Games
Developer: Kerberos Productions
Price: $5
Platform: PC
A Steam code for SotS: The Pit – Mind Games was supplied to us
Sword of the Stars (and its sequel) is a space strategy game, so I'm sure many people were scratching their head when a spin-off title was announced to be a roguelike. The Pit ended up being quite well received and now Kerberos Productions have dropped a small expansion to the game called Mind Games.
If you haven't played Sword of the Stars: The Pit yet let me give you a quick explanation on what it is. It's a roguelike that takes place in the SotS universe and while there is a story here it's merely a brief introduction at the beginning of what your character's objective is and then a confirmation at the end of the game that you have indeed completed your objective; everything in between is just you and almost certain death. As with all roguelikes the levels, item spawns, and enemies are completely randomized (to a degree) and the deaths are permanent. You'll progress through each floor with the goal of either rushing to the exit or hanging around to grind out some resources and the difficulty jumps with each new floor. The fun in these types of games is the slowly increasing challenge and the fact that each time you play things are different enough to not feel like your last run.
There are three classes; the marine, engineer, and scout that are all varied enough to give you some incentive to try them all out. Each one does exactly what they sound with the marine having skill points invested more in combat while the engineer focuses more in electronics. Besides leveling up you'll find other RPG mechanics such as crafting (success being dependent on your skill level), stats to invest in, and tons of loot to find. The game is fairly accessible, but like most roguelikes expect to need to put in a few hours before you understand all the mechanics.
Now what you're here for is to know what the Mind Games expansion adds and I think it's fair to say it'll change how you play the game in quite a big way. The small additions include 10 new floors, a few new enemies, a new difficulty level, an endless mode, new room types, and new items such as weapons & traps. Two new classes are included as well which bumps the total up to five. You've got the Psion who focuses on (you guessed it) Psionic abilities and the alien Ranger feels a bit of a jack of all trades class. The major change comes in the form of the newly implemented Psionic abilities. There are 28 total powers that you can learn that vary from healing you, controlling enemies, being able to view where an enemy is out of your line of site, setting baddies on fire, and more. There's a nice amount of variety to play around with and it'll definitely add a lot of replay value to a game that already had more than enough.
The Final Word
Mind Games is exactly what a small expansion should strive to be; it's reasonably priced, adds a significant amount of changes to the core gameplay, and it'll last you more than an hour.
– MonsterVine Rating: 3.5 out of 5 – Fair

my father and i are county leauge players in england and wales respectivly, but this one still bugs me! my darts where flying true and straight for once and with my first throw i bagged a 180 (the first time my dad had seen me do that and only my second ever) i thought i could only get worse from that and then managed a 177. to my shock i was on for a nine darter and had only seen it on the telly. i got the trebble 18 whent for trebble 20 only to hit double top! it was now or never time for the bully (no presure) i've hit it hundreds of times i thought to myself, let go of the arrow and i knew a soon as i released it i had pulled it and it ended up in the outer bull. gutted at this i was but the thing that hurt more was that my dad still beat me in that very same game. as they say trebble's for show doubles for dough.

When things went wrong early, Steve Buckelew kept the faith.
His players didn't give up, either.
Thanks to that belief, Pearland proved it has what it takes to contend with the best in Region III-5A.
Pearland rallied from a big second-quarter deficit Tuesday night to defeat visiting Manvel 44-42 in a matchup of District 22-5A undefeated teams.
No. 23-ranked Manvel (22-4, 5-1) stormed out of the gate with three 3-pointers on its way to a 14-2 lead. Pearland (18-8, 6-0) called two timeouts in the game's first four minutes.
"We couldn't have shot the ball worse. We couldn't have started worse," Buckelew said. "When they hit the first few 3s, we got tight. We didn't expect that, because they haven't done it to anybody all year long."
Pearland responded with seven points in a row but still found itself trailing by 16 points early in the second quarter. Thanks to a big performance by supersub Brandon Sneed, however, the Oilers never went away.
To read this article in one of Houston's most-spoken languages, click on the button below.
Sneed scored 12 of his game-high 23 points in the first half and seven more in the first 31/2 minutes of the third quarter to get Pearland within two. Manvel scored a pair of baskets in the final minute of the third quarter to salvage something positive heading into the final eight minutes.
The Oilers then scored 10 straight points in a span of 90 seconds to take the lead. Sneed made a short shot and was fouled after a steal to get Pearland within one point. He missed the ensuing free throw, but his teammates secured the rebound.
Jay Hedgeman's 3-pointer with 4:07 left gave Pearland the edge for good.
Devon Begley's steal in the final three seconds clinched the victory.
Manvel made just four field goals and three of 10 free throws after halftime.
"We both knew at this point we'd probably both be undefeated (in district play)," Manvel coach Greg Devers said. "We were hoping to steal one from them."

Victoria earns recognition for business growth
April 25, 2012 at 5:04 p.m.
Updated April 25, 2012 at 11:26 p.m.
To read the story,
Victoria has been recognized as one of the Top 10 Small Southern Markets by Southern Business and Development Magazine.
Adrian S. Cannady, with the Victoria Economic Development Corp., said he was flattered and somewhat surprised by the recognition.
Cannady, vice president of marketing, didn't realize an article was being written about the area, but he's excited to see the economic growth.
"I'm aware of the tremendous momentum we are expecting," he said.
Cannady attributed the growth to Eagle Ford Shale, Catepillar Inc. and the ancillary industries that support both businesses.
He also acknowledged the petrochemical industry has put itself in a position to grow.
The magazine cited Victoria as the largest heavy excavator manufacturing facility for the Fortune 500 company.
"Victoria is the poster child for re-shoring," said Michael Randle, owner of Southern Business and Development.
He said the Crossroads is an ideal place to make exports because of location and cost.
"We're in the middle of everything," Cannady said in agreement.
Dale Fowler, president of VEDC, said Caterpillar is setting a precedent by taking advantage of the transportation avenues.
"Hopefully other companies will take notice," he said.

Here are some images of the blue bits in my life. I like blue. I like that blue is so calming. I like listening to the blues. There are times when I feel blue too.
This is my favourite 'blue' photo … for the time being anyway:
A funny choice for a favourite blue photo – considering that there is so much green in it. There is some blue on her lip. She looks blue too. This photo is called Little Blue. She is little. She looks blue. There is a little bit of blue on her lip.
There is a lot more blue here.

Topic(s):PEOPLE-2007-2-1.IEF - Marie Curie Action: "Intra-European Fellowships for Career Development"
Call for proposal:FP7-PEOPLE-2007-2-1-IEFSee other projects for this call
Funding scheme:MC-IEF - Intra-European Fellowships (IEF)
This program aims to study the formation and evolution of high redshift galaxies strongly lensed by a massive cluster acting as a gravitational lens. I plan to study the assembly history of galaxies at 2 < z < 5 through very detailed analysis of highly magnified arcs with Integral Field Spectroscopy, in order to compare the local star formation rate and spectrophotometric properties at a spatial resolution of 0.1-0.2 kpc, allowed by the gravitational lensing effect which stretches the observed physical scales. I will use the new PanSTARRS survey to look for more examples of highly magnified arcs in galaxy-galaxy events. I will perform a large survey for very high redshift lensed galaxies (6<z<12) identified as near-infrared dropouts and undertake the spectroscopic follow-up using the forthcoming multi-object spectrographs at high resolution. By comparing the number counts, luminosity functions and spectroscopic results with theoretical expectations from semi-analytical models, I will build a complete picture of the star formation history in the early Universe, well ahead of the commissioning of the next generation of large-diameter (30m) telescopes such as the ELTs, or the JWST. All this research will be performed using the latest instruments on large-diameter telescopes accessible to the Durham group (Gemini, ESO observatories, Magellan), including the available Integral Field Units, and the space telescope. The programme includes technical training on reduction and analysis of 3D datasets, project management, collaboration with different groups and presentation/publication of scientific results.

U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson was at Catholic Charities in Hudson this morning to make holiday care packages for needy families — 58 of them, to be exact.
Yes, yes, that's the sort of thing a lot of politicians do this time of year, handing out turkeys, Christmas gifts and the like.
But what's interesting here is that it was Catholic Charities to which Gibson last month donated his roughly $5,400 in salary for the 16 days the federal government was shut down in October when Congress failed to reach an agreement on how to continue funding for many services.
Gibson, a Kinderhook Republican, forsook his pay for the time the government was closed.
The idea that two political parties can't come together to get a mission done is foreign to me — and unacceptable," Gibson said.
"It's an individual choice," he said of parting with the money. "Each member has to make that choice."
Gibson, a retired Army colonel, is also one of a handful of members of Congress who re-direct their pensions back to the U.S. Treasury Department every month to avoid "double-dipping."
Interestingly, Gibson says you cannot simply tell the federal government to stop paying your pension, requiring him to — in gloriously bureaucratic fashion — accept the money and then write a check back to the feds each month.
Gibson, who was first elected in 2010, said he chose Catholic Charities because of his family's long association with the charity. He said his wife, Mary Jo, a licensed clinical social worker, is a regular volunteer there and worked for the for the organization in Queens when he taught at West Point.
U.S. Rep. Paul Tonko, an Amsterdam Democrat, also said he would not accept his pay during the government shutdown.
Update: According to Tonko's office, he donated his shutdown pay in three equal parts of $1,550 to the Regional Food Banks of Northeastern New York in Latham, Leatherstocking Honor Flight in Cobleskill and the Northern Rivers Family Services Development Department in Albany.

SJU President Welcomes Visiting Fulbrights to University's Intensive English Program
Emphasizing the transformative power of a global education, Conrado "Bobby" Gempesaw, Ph.D., president of St. John's, personally welcomed 38 visiting Fulbright scholars from 25 countries during a special reception on July 31 at the new location of the University's Manhattan campus.
The Fulbright recipients are here for three weeks to strengthen their English-language skills and knowledge of US culture through The Language Connection (TLC) at St. John's. They will go on to pursue their master's and doctoral studies at institutions across the country. According to Dr. Pamela Fairman, Director of TLC, this is the third year in a row that TLC's English for Graduate Studies Program has been chosen by the Institute of International Education (IIE) and the US Department of State to host the visiting Fulbright students.
"Today we celebrate the impact of being a global university," observed Dr. Gempesaw, who stressed the success that past Fulbright recipients have had throughout the world in the arenas of government, education, and the academic disciplines.
"St. John's University has a very long history," he continued. "We're now starting our 145th year, and we are one of only eight universities throughout the country selected to provide you with your English language studies—and the only one in New York City."
Dr. Gempesaw also spoke of the vital role that education plays in everyone's life—including his own. "It will transform your life, and with it you can transform the lives of others. I stand here before you as an example of someone who went through that process many years ago. I implore you to take advantage of this opportunity."
Prior to the reception, the Fulbrighters attended a presentation by Martha Hirst, executive vice president, chief operating officer, and treasurer at St. John's. Relaying her own experience working with four former New York City mayors during her municipal career, Hirst discussed the qualities that inform an effective leader—and the power those characteristics have to motivate others.
"The best leaders have a vision," Hirst told the students, adding that capable leaders know how to assemble a great team. "The best leaders I know inspire others and collaborate. You can't lead by yourself."
Hirst went on to observe that the Fulbrighters are already seen as potential leaders. "At this juncture," she advised, "it's a good idea for you to observe leaders around you so you can learn from them."
Muhammed Rafi Siddiq, a student from Afghanistan who will pursue a master's in linguistics at the School for International Training in Vermont, said he felt very welcome at St. John's. "The Fulbright program is not just about studying," he noted. "It's a cultural exchange program. At St. John's, we're learning about American culture while we represent our own culture. New York is a great city and St. John's is a great university."
This program is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs as part of its flagship Fulbright Program.

Sunday the NBA All-Star game wrapped up All-Star Weekend in Houston. The West won the game 143-138. Chris Paul was named the MVP of the game. He had 20 points and 4 steals and a whopping 15 assists. His assist total was third in All-Star history following Magic Johnson and Isiah Thomas. Besides the game there was the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest, the Foot Locker Three-Point Event, and much more. Here are some highlights and pictures from an exciting weekend in Houston.
"This feels unbelievable," Toronto Raptors Terrence Ross said after winning the Sprite 2013 Slam Dunk Contest trophy. Ross was able to beat last year's Dunk Contest winner Utah Jazz's Jeremy Evans in the final round of the contest. Ross got 58 percent of the fans vote to win the title of Slam Dunk Champion.
Kyrie Irving won the Foot Locker Three-Point Contest on All-Star Saturday. Irving said "I feel like I was a dark horse in this competition. I just wanted to go out and prove a point that I was one of the premier shooters out here with all these guys. Steve Novak and Matt Bonner, I never thought I'd beat those guys."
Here some other great highlights from this past weekend!

When you're diagnosed with diabetes, everything you eat becomes important. If you have Type 1 diabetes, gaining good control means balancing what you eat with the correct amount of insulin to help use the glucose in your blood. A dietitian or certified diabetes educator (CDE) can help you figure out how much insulin you need.

If you have Type 2 diabetes, oral medications help you use the insulin you already produce more effectively, to keep blood glucose levels in a normal range. Both kinds of diabetes require a plan of food, exercise, weight control and medication.

Sometimes it's hard to know where to start. Here are some basics that may help you on your way.

What's a Healthy Weight?

Try to maintain a normal body weight. Many doctors use the Body Mass Index (BMI) as a guide for determining your ideal weight. Your BMI is calculated from your weight and height and puts more focus on body fat instead of just weight. The formula, for those who like math, is "body mass index = mass (in kilograms) divided by height (in meters) squared". For those of us who would rather live without math, many free BMI calculators are available online. The National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) has one that is easy to use.

What's a BMI?

A BMI of 20-25 is considered normal. 26-29.9 is overweight, 30-39.9 is obese and 40 or more, morbidly obese.

How Many Carbs Should I Eat?

The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends keeping your carbs at 55% to 65% of your daily intake. The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE) advises between 55% to 60%. Both organizations state that even though carbs directly affect blood sugar, they are not the enemy. They contain many nutrients that your body needs. Carbs are what your body uses for energy by breaking down into glucose.

In diabetes, the body can't use the glucose for energy because it needs insulin to move the glucose to the cells. In type 1 diabetes, no insulin is produced by the body. That's why people with diabetes need to take insulin. If someone has type 2, they might produce their own insulin, but it isn't effective enough to move the glucose from the blood to the cells. Oral medications help their insulin work better.

Carbohydrates and Diabetes FAQ's

What is Type 1 Diabetes?

What is Type 2 Diabetes?

According to the ADA, fat should make up 25% to 30% of your diet and protein intake should be approximately 11% to 18%. Less emphasis on fatty animal protein and more on lean types of protein such as egg whites, white meat chicken and turkey, and soy products help to keep cholesterol levels down.

What's the Deal with Fiber?

Fiber is an important part of eating for diabetes. Even though fiber is considered a carbohydrate it doesn't raise blood glucose levels, and increased fiber intake has been shown to actually decrease glucose levels in people with diabetes.

The recommended amount of fiber varies but all sources agree that 25 grams should be the minimum grams of fiber in a day. A large-scale analysis of medical research, published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition recommends a range of 25 to 50 grams per day.

Many people don't eat enough fiber. Increasing your consumption of high-fiber foods like whole-grain breads, cereals and pastas, oats and other whole grains, brown rice, lentils and beans, fruits, vegetables and nuts can help you reach your goal. If you're increasing your fiber intake, remember to drink at least 8 glasses of water throughout the day, to help keep things moving.

Fiber and Diabetes Health

What's the Glycemic Index?

The glycemic index rates carbs by how much they raise blood glucose. Carbs like candy, sugar, cake and cookies have a high glycemic index, while whole-grains have a lower glycemic index.

The glycemic index can help when trying to figure out which carbs are the best for you. Since all carbohydrates don't affect blood glucose levels the same way, knowing which carbs have a lower glycemic index can help you plan your meals more effectively.

You can get glycemic index charts from your dietician, from books, or free from on-line sources such as the University of Sydney, Australia sponsored website, "Home of the Glycemic Index". This site has a database that shows the glycemic index for many foods and offers information about using the glycemic index for rating your carbs.

We have 70 horses for sale, not all are up on our website yet. Until then, feel free to contact us to see what else we have. Thanks!
Just a note about Anderson Ranch Foxtrotters: What sets our horses apart, is not their level of training or the shows they've competed in, but rather, its their inherent qualities – what they're born with! We have worked for decades to find and breed horses with excellent willing to please, calm temperaments and smooth gaits.
In addition to their favorable genetics, many of our horses have had the opportunity to spend summers living in a natural herd environment in rough country. We have found this to produce sure footed mountain horses with sound minds. To see examples of how our horses handle their first encounters with a rider on their back… click on the following video links: Video 1 Video 2
We know from much personal experience (and what it has taken to build our breeding program) that you will be hard pressed to find anywhere else to offer so many Foxtrotters with these fantastic temperaments in one location. Even though your new horse won't have had extensive handling, you will find (as have many customers before you) that you will be riding and enjoying your horse in short order. The training will come easily, and safety and bonding will be your reward for choosing to buy from Anderson Ranch Foxtrotters.
Not yet convinced? Try a visit to our testimonials page. Let us know what you're looking for, we would love to help match you with the best horse to suite your needs. Happy Horse Hunting!

By now, your New Year's resolutions made in the euphoria of the first days of the decade will have shaken out. The new "exercise routine", "diet regime", "watch less TV", "limit time on the internet", and "stop smoking" resolutions may have already fallen by the wayside. The ones that count will keep holding.
We are still in January. What is it that you would really like to improve or change in your life? What would you like to see change in our world? And how would you like to be part of that change? How will you be inspiring yourself this year?
A resolution is a sacred act because it is issued like a prayer within yourself, a devout commitment that asks to be honoured and invites you to engage a portion of your precious life energy to fulfill and realize it. The feelings of disappointment or sadness you may experience from time to time can relate to your own lack of fulfilling an expectation you have set up for yourself.
Which brings me to forgiveness. Breaking a promise does not have to undermine your sense of value and well-being. Things change. What looked good and promising one day may take on another colour the next day. If we all had total understanding of the world and its ways, we would be geniuses of planning and perfection. Not the case, in my experience.
If one of the intentions you still hold for 2010 is greater well-being, peace of mind, or more nourishing sleep, start to practice forgiveness on a regular basis. Let go of and be willing to learn from the errors of your ways, the broken promises - intentional or otherwise - and the richness of your life experience, the positive and the less than positive. Enjoy the fullness of the present moment.
I found this poem by Dr. Robert Holden inspiring.
The Angel of Forgiveness
Forgiveness is an Angel you pray to
when you need a miracle to
save you.
Forgiveness loves you all the way
home. Its sweet essence leads
you back to the Garden.
Forgiveness is a blessing that gives
you back your innocence again.
Forgiveness teaches you who You
really are, when you let go
and let God love you.
Forgiveness is a way of seeing. It
shows you what is real, and what
cannot be hurt.
Forgiveness is a holy star the lights
the way ahead for you.
Forgiveness helps you to find the
present. The shadows of the past
disappear all into now.
Forgiveness gives you wings. You
are free now to go on and be
who You came to be.
Forgiveness is the gift you came
to give to the world. Heaven's
gentle smile here upon earth.
Present times require us to be faster and more responsive to change than ever before. We are being given the opportunity to demonstrate how adaptable and flexible we truly are. One of the most painful conditions that I deal with in myself and my clients is the feeling of being "stuck" - frozen without any capacity to adapt to or improve an apparently hopeless situation, such as a health issue, a lack of finances, an unhappy relationship, or a misunderstanding.
The truth is that you have much more power, possibility and potential than you may fully appreciate and allow yourself to recognize. It may take a catalyst to reveal what can be achieved in a challenging circumstance. Like lighting a touch paper, your awakening can give you the enthusiasm and clarity to take the next step forward. So I return to what you really want this year.
In my experience, the deepest desires and heartfelt visions challenge limited patterns of belief and behaviour and open a channel for more of your gifts and talents to be expressed and known. Such desires are like the fire of your human spirit. This fire can burn the dross that would hold you back, and light your way forward, step by step.
Recently I downloaded a pdf file of a short book Your Invisible Power by Genevieve Behrend, originally published in 1921. I found it a good reminder about what I know to be true when you strongly commit and act to accomplish a deeply desired outcome. If you would like a copy, contact me at the address below.
A final note on successfully achieving a new outcome. You may wish to create a support group around you to keep you on track. You might choose an accountability buddy. There is also strength in keeping your intention to yourself, like a seed in a dark place. When it has germinated, then might be the time to bring it into the light of day and invite outer support. Sometimes, telling others about an important goal can weaken your resolve. Think about what is best for you, and when.
In this video Dr. Wayne Dyer invites us to consider 4 ways we can achieve what we want:
The Synchronicity of Strawberry Ice-Cream - Dr. Wayne Dyer
What would you most like for yourself and our world in this year? How do you see yourself accomplishing what is most important for you? What gives you greatest hope?

Following a Candida Diet and recipe can be tough so here is the basic rundown on recipes for Candida. If your new here and are suffering from Candida consider bookmarking this page or subscribing to our rss feed via email or reader.
The Candida Diet and Recipes – Go More Basic..
Okay, so your diagnosis is Candida, so now is the time to be basic when it comes to recipes and what you eat. This does not mean be boring, just eat more basic non processed foods. You will want to eliminate everything that has been changed by factory. This includes all cheeses, breads (processed yeasty breads), sugary items, many types of canned foods, soft drinks and many more.
Instead you want to focus on your low sugar fruits, vegetables and some wholesome cooking. As a tip there are many
ingredients that can make food taste great, one being using chilli and herbs.. These are natural flavour enhancers that the earth provides so focus on these more as your arsenal of flavours.Make sure chilli is okay first, in my case it was but it may be different for each user so use with caution..
When i suffered from Candida, the diet was the hardest until i started looking at it differently. Candida Diet Recipes do not have to be boring. Use the flavours of natural foods and create meals from that. It took me a while to get it right, but finally i got there.
Here is some yummy ideas for a Candida Diet and Recipes
- Chicken stir fried with basil, thyme and chilli and mixed with fresh green beans and garlic. Very yummy..
- Egg Salad with kidney beans instead of cheese and fresh lemon juice instead of vinegar
- Spicy rice noodle soup with chili and fresh greens and your choice of beef or chicken
- Fresh baked potatoes lightly brushed with olive oil sprinkled thyme on it and crushed garlic juice sprinkled over. This one is really yummy.
So i hope you get a better idea on Candida Diet Recipes. It really is about getting back to the kitchen again and cooking lots of fresh tasty foods. I like to focus on the chilli element as i find a little really enhances the flavour and also helps to reduce my type of candida. Garlic is another enhancer that should not be ignored and it also helps naturally reduce candida as well so there is a big bonus there.

Over the weekend, Rihanna debuted her new 'do on Twitter. Known for her ever-changing hair color, cuts and lengths, Rihanna posted Instagram pictures of her freshly dyed black hair.
The moment spring arrived, it seemed like everyone at my job, myself included, debuted a new hairstyle. Straight hair transformed into cascading waves and brunettes dabbled in honey blonde and auburn. My department was affectionately dubbed "The Beyonce Crew." I'll take that.
Now that spring is here, what changes do you have in store for your hair?

John Keogh - Westmeath 1840's?
Having just found this site, I wanted to add my 2 cents to the conversation! I too am a Kehoe, descended from John Kehoe of Westmeath (we think). My nephew is Thomas J.Kehoe V. The name was spelled 'Keogh' in Ireland, but changed when Thomas Keogh (b 1864)came to the US. We are told he came with his brother John, but I have no info on him. They were the sons of John and Anne Conlan. If anyone knows more about this Keogh/Kehoe family I would appreciate any info you have. Thank you all! ~AMK

The world's mayors are running the biggest and most important cities in all of human history. They need to have a forum.
There can be no doubt about it: The world's economic action is centered in its cities. More than half the people in the world live in metros, a figure that is projected to rise to nearly three-quarters by mid-century. The world's 40 largest mega-regions (geographical clusters of cities, many of them crossing national boundaries) account for less than a fifth of the world's population while producing two thirds of the world's economic output and nearly 90 percent of its innovations.
A growing chorus of urbanists argue that mayors are the most innovative, pragmatic, and effective political leaders we have today. These local leaders continue to make progress on fronts where nation-states have been stymied by partisanship and self-interest, including climate change, environmental degradation, traffic congestion, terrorism, poverty, and the trafficking of drugs, guns, and people.
But if mayors are in the vanguard of policy innovation, too often they are compelled to go at it alone. They are inadequately supported by and (at times) at odds with the nation-states in which they are embedded, and they lack the kind of institutional supports that presidents, prime ministers, and even business leaders take for granted.
It's time for a U.N.-like organization for cities, a global parliament where mayors and other urban stakeholders and leaders can collaborate on policymaking—and from which they can disseminate best practices and standards.
Over the last six months, Benjamin Barber, author of the book If Mayors Ruled the World, and I have been working with my Martin Prosperity Institute colleague Don Tapscott, a world-renowned expert on the impact of technology on society, and Steve Caswell, one of the pioneers of the email industry, to turn this notion into a reality.
In a new two-part report, we build upon and expand Barber's idea for a Global Parliament of Mayors, which would support and enhance existing organizations that already promote inter-city cooperation and knowledge-sharing, such as the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives, for example (founded in 1990); the United Cities and Local Governments; and the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group.
A Global Parliament of Mayors would enable leaders from cities with different systems to compare notes and learn from one another on everything from mundane issues like sanitation, building codes, and transportation to more pressing ones like counterterrorism, global climate change, and the challenges of labor migration.
It would also provide a way to bridge and learn from very different models for urban governance. Some cities have powerful mayors and effective city councils, but many others have weak and dysfunctional leadership.
Though very much a real-world organization, its members would not sit in a formal council; they would be linked together virtually. Their dialogue would operate from the bottom up, with a priority of reaching actionable results rather than politically expedient ones. And though the group's goal would be to produce a new paradigm for 21st-century leadership, there would be no enforcement mechanisms. In other words, there is no way this network would have the power to force mayors to implement policies they don't believe in.
The good news is that the Global Parliament of Mayors is not just an idea. In mid-September, Barber will convene the body's third planning meeting with the mayors of Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht, along with political advisors and urban specialists from around the world. Just a few days later, the Global Parliament of Mayors Interdisciplinary Workshop will kick off in The Hague, hosted by Mayor van Aartsen and Professor Jouke de Vries, Dean of Leiden University.
At the World Urban Forum in Medellin in April, I called for the U.N. to make cities the centerpieces of their forthcoming sustainable development goals to help overcome inequality, upgrade existing slums and prevent the growth of new ones, provide housing, transportation and access to safe public spaces and services, strengthen resilience in the face of climate change and other natural disasters, and more. With billions more people set to stream into cities over the next half century, we will be spending more money on city building than we have in all of human history. Now more than ever, we need proactive urban planning that protects public space while providing good governance and stable transparent institutions. We need better metrics and much more information on what works and what does not. And we need to understand what drives the growth and development of cities.
Urbanization is the grandest of the grand challenges we face, and mayors are the figures most crucial to addressing it. A Global Parliament of Mayors would give them the forum they need to do so.

George Wein speaks about Newport Jazz Festival's nonprofit status
The Newport Jazz Festival, along with the Newport Folk Festival, will from now on be produced under the rubric of the Newport Festivals Foundation, Inc., a new 501(c)(3) organization. George Wein and his staff will remain in place as the festival producers.
After being held in 2010 as the CareFusion Newport Jazz Festival, the Newport organization is returning to its original nonprofit status — a change that will, in Wein's view, also change the nature of the event. The festival, he said, "will stand by itself. It will not be part of a bigger business enterprise. The motivation changes. Now, success and artistic value are the values that count – 'is it a great festival,' not 'did it make any money'?"
The change, Wein said, "definitely means we will be working with more emerging artists," although occasionally there will be "an old favorite who means something to the audience and the younger musicians." But he quickly added: "If the festival does not recognize that jazz is an ever-evolving art form, then it is not contributing to its growth."
In the news release announcing the change in status, Wein described the festival's performers as "musicians who follow the traditions of New Orleans, swing, bebop and modal as the heart of jazz music. In addition, the Foundation will honor the evolving cultural expression and freedom of creativity necessary to the growth and continuing vitality of the music."
Wein believes the new status will enhance the festival's ability to attract artists. Artist fees will not diminish, he emphasized, but "artists will be more willing to cooperate in performing in different ways. So far, they are not treating it as just another gig. There was a time that jazz fests had to be a 'great show.' That is still the case, but this is not the end in itself."
The Newport Jazz Festival has been held continuously in Newport, Rhode Island, since 1954. Virtually every major jazz artist has performed there – from Miles Davis and Duke Ellington to Wynton Marsalis and Diana Krall, along with contemporary artists including the Bad Plus, Darcy James Argue's Secret Society, Jason Moran's Bandwagon, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Gretchen Parlato and many more.

For instance, in a Sunish console environment it's fine to say the user sitting at the machine gets ownership of /dev/console, /dev/fb, etc. They also have it simpler becuase there isn't any thing like the /dev/console vs /dev/vga (vs /dev/ttyv0). But with something like pcvt, what if they login under multiple usernames? But I agree, ownership of things like /dev/console is a problem (minor but niggling) with the current scheme. ACL's, yeah, that's it. Forget FFS, we'll just use RMS. Then we won't need the db library any more either ?-). -Mark ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RUFC - Millers closing in on name
Rotherham United Chairman, Tony Stewart says that it's probable that the new ground will be named by the end of the month.
With Mr Stewart saying last month that he wanted the name sorted for Christmas, he is hopeful that it will now be the month before.
So far, it would seem, the favourite names include New York Stadium and The Foundry.
Speaking to Les Payne of The Star, Mr Stewart said, 'We have one name that has been suggested by lots of people but it is important that we make the right decision so there will be much further discussion and research before a decision is made.'
