Fellow cyclists, my friend and fellow blogger Lorenz Worden made me aware of the recent filing of the Bicycle Expo 2013 permit. Attached is the permit and below is the email I received from Lorenz Worden.
Friends of Cycling:
We are now committed to Bicycle Expo 2013 with the submission to the City Clerk of the event permit and the (attached) one-page narrative. With Albany's recent designation by the League of American Bicyclists as a bicycle friendly community and renewed interest within the city on promoting cycling, this year's Expo will be a great event.
One of our immediate next steps is sending out a "save-the-date" postcard to last year's vendors/sponsors AND to any new vendors/sponsors. Accordingly, if you have ANY SUGGESTIONS for organizations (profit/not-for-profit), food vendors, cycling vendors, etc. PLEASE send in the following info ASAP:
– Contact Name/title (with phone and e-mail if possible)
– Name of Organization
– Address with ZIP
We will build up our database "to move ABC's Bicycle Expo to the next level!"
Cycle On!

"I Am The Way, The Truth, The Life..." Series
Contributed by Daniel Austin on Mar 16, 2010 (message contributor)
Summary: Jesus did not come to only show us the way, teach us the truth, and give us the life, though He does all of this, because He is the Way to God, the Truth of God, and the Life in God.
"I Am The Way, The Truth, The Life..."
In His Own Words
Reading: John 14:1-6
Text: John 14:6
I saw a piece of Bumper Art (that's the marketing term for bumper sticker) that sent me to the Internet for information. It said "I'd rather be Mooneyating." As it turns out, Mooney is a type of personal aircraft, so Mooneyating would be flying same and explains where that driver would rather be.
I see this kind of "Bumper Art" often as I'm driving our freeways and sometimes on T-shirts.
"I'd Rather Be..."
1. Fishing?
2. Golfing?
3. Anywhere else but where I am now!
Maybe you feel like that in your job, school, or home...
The fact is, we who are Christians should feel this way often, if not all the time. In his first epistle, Peter calls believers sojourners, aliens, and strangers in this world. We are a people just passing through this life on our journey home, a home Jesus Himself has prepared for us:
John 14:2 (NASB) "In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you."
I'd rather be in my Father's house; we should all feel that same way. Our text tells us how to find our way home.
#1 The Way
1.Christ is the way, the highway spoken of in prophesy:
Isaiah 35:8 (NASB) A highway will be there, a roadway, And it will be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean will not travel on it, But it will be for him who walks that way, And fools will not wander on it.
2.Christ is the way, the narrow way entered by the small gate:
Matthew 7:14 (NASB) 14"For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
3.Christ is the way, for by his own blood he entered into the holy place
Hebrews 9:11 - 12 (NASB) But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation; and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption.
a.He is our way, for we enter by Him.
b.Romans 6:3 - 4 (NASB) Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life.
4.In following Jesus we walk in newness of life, a life which we live in likeness of Him:
Ephesians 4:24 (NASB) and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.
#2 The Truth
A. "Truth is relative"
1. Circumstantial
2. Situational
3. "That was 2000 years ago, but now things are different."
B. Jesus is The TRUTH.
1. He is the true water which quenches the thirst of the spirit; the bread of life which satisfies the hunger of the soul, He is the High Priest who enters the true Holy of Holies. (Hebrews 9:24)
2. The truth as opposed to figure and shadow. Christ is the substance of all the Old Testament types, which are said to be figures of the true.

He firmly believes education serves as the surest path toward liberation and self-actualization. He can often be found with a cup of coffee, a book, or trying to convince himself that carrot cake is, indeed, a vegetable. Prior to joining the Aggie family, Chad received a Bachelor of Arts in English and Dramatic Arts from the University of California, Santa Barbara, and a Master of Science in Higher Education from Florida State University. He also spent time supporting the fraternity and sorority community as well as the on campus residential population at Virginia Tech before tansitioning into his current role in Aggieland.

Kelci J. Jacoby, Graduate Assistant
Howdy! My name is Kelci Jacoby and I am a Graduate Assistant for the resource center. I am from Helena, Montana, where I was born and raised. I graduated in May 2016 from Willamette University in Salem, OR, where I received my BA in History and American Ethnic Studies. As an undergrad I was involved in the Fraternity and Sorority community where I had positions on Panhellenic council and was the Fraternity and Sorority Life intern my senior year. In addition to being involved in FSL, I served as the Orientation Coordinator for Willamette. After graduating in May, I moved to Aggieland to fulfill a NODA internship with Fish Camp. I currently am pursuing a MS in the Student Affairs Administration in Higher Education (SAAHE) Program, which I will graduate from in May 2018.
Jessica Balderas, Student Worker
Howdy! I am Jessica Balderas and I am one of the student workers at the GLBT Resource Center. I am originally from a suburb of Austin called Leander. Currently I am studying Geography and GIS in hopes of becoming an urban planner for small cities. During my time at Texas A&M I have had the pleasure of serving as an officer for Aggies for Reproductive Justice and Shades of Queer through my involvement with these organizations I have been able to create safe, inclusive, and diverse communities. I hope to bring the knowledge I learned through these student organizations to the GLBT Resource Center. I am excited to be a part of the GLBT Resource Center staff and look forward to a wonderful year.
Howdy! I'm Gael Brice, and I'm a sophomore art-focused student. I come from Bentonville, Arkansas; a beautiful little oasis in the Northwest portion of the state, it is home to Walmart and is a quiet destination for stars to take a break. My work has been in a spattering of student shows and continues to improve daily. I hope to pursue a career incorporating design and/or animation. I have been an active part of the GSRM community since before moving to A&M and it's been a passionate portion of my life ever since. I'm incredibly thankful for all the Resource Center has done to make me feel comfortable and accepted after much identity-related stress and now I hope to return the favor and help others feel more comfortable at Texas A&M.
Javier Morales, Student Worker
Howdy! My name is Javier Morales and I'm originally from Brownsville, TX, which yes is the birthplace of Harambe the gorilla. I'm currently pursuing a BS in Psychology with minors in Neuroscience and Sociology, and I plan to later obtain a PhD in Psychology. I'm still unsure as to what branch I will be going into, but I'm passionately considering Counseling Psychology and Neuropsychology. I love to be somewhere that allows me to give people something they need, a resource, directions (which I'm horrible at by the way since I have no sense of direction but I try), even something as seemingly simple like a listening ear (which can make all difference in the world). I'm also proud to say I'm a part of the Student Counseling HelpLine, A&M's own line for anyone to call about anything that may be on their mind, so if you can't visit the GLBT Resource Center and you need someone to talk to, give the HelpLine a call, "We're here". I hope I can give something to the community through the GLBT Resource Center, and I look forward to doing everything I can to make sure I do. I can't wait to make this a great year!
Cooper Thompson, Student Worker
Howdy! My name's Cooper Thompson and I'm a junior International Studies and Telecommunications major from Plano. Texas, and. I'm the loudest and proudest member of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of 2018 A-A-A-WHOOP! Around campus I'm involved in the Orchestra Club, where I play cello, and have been active in the LGBT community on campus since my freshman year. I'm really excited to finally be a part of the GLBT Resource Center and I'm ready for an amazing year!

A Hidden Benefit of Cooperative Purchasing: Vendor and Contract Management
Author: Fred Tillman, Interim CEO, BidSync
Date: 2014-04-28
There has been a lot of discussion about how cooperative purchasing and co-ops help the public sector save time and money. However, one little known advantage of purchasing through a co-op is vendor and contract management. Well-run cooperative purchasing organizations are active in managing contracts and vendor performance.
"We are seeing our members making contract and vendor analysis a priority," said Michael Lucas, program manager, Purchasing Solutions Alliance. "There is a growing emphasis on supplier relationship management."
Public safety agencies and government organizations spend a great deal of time managing the performance of their vendors throughout the contract lifecycle. Gathering required certification and documentation, analyzing performance vs. spend and conducting pricing reviews take significant expertise and time. When an agency purchases through a co-op, it takes the contract lifecycle management (CLM) off its plate.
"Using best practices to oversee the contracts we carry is an important aspect of the service we provide to our members," said Lucas. "We feel that good contract and vendor management is an integral part of our ability to remain compliant and transparent on behalf of our membership."
When evaluating which co-ops are the best fit, agencies should look beyond price to other, more strategic considerations. They should review how many members a co-op has, how many contracts it carries and also what practices and guidelines are in place for strategic sourcing and vendor management.
Co-ops, like agencies, should be conducting regular analysis of spend, contract reviews, pricing reviews and contract performance audits. Agencies are increasingly aware of this vital aspect of CLM and are evaluating co-ops based on their performance in this area.
When evaluating a co-op, it is important to look at whether the co-op does multiple awards in a category or single awards. If vendor and contract management is an important consideration, then a co-op that does single awards may be the better fit. Multiple award co-ops may dilute the process, leading to less rigorous contract and vendor management.
BidSync, a company that provides e-procurement solutions for agencies and governments nationwide, said that they are seeing more emphasis on strategic sourcing from their clients. Procurement in the public sector is evolving! Governments and agencies are getting smarter and more strategic in their management of procurement from solicitation to settle. We are seeing more and more clients put greater emphasis on CLM.
Strategic sourcing takes into account not only the price of goods and services, but also the total cost of procurement, which includes institutional time, internal processes, policies and procedures and demand drivers. It seeks to put procurement into a collaborative, constantly improving environment that goes beyond supplier source negotiation.
"Organizations that have an emphasis on strategic sourcing are finding that relationships with the right cooperative purchasing organizations are a real asset," Lucas said. "As procurement best practices and priorities evolve, so must the co-op."
Purchasing via a co-op can have a deep impact on the overall cost of procurement. It can not only beneficially affect the cost of goods and services, but can also manage the time consuming process of CLM. Agencies that are implementing strategic sourcing initiatives or are looking to streamline their procurement processes will want to ensure that the co-ops they join have the same priorities.
Fred Tillman is Chief Information Officer and Interim CEO of BidSync, an industry-leading provider of bid notification services for companies looking to do business with the public sector. More than 800,000 businesses use BidSync for bid-notification services. BidSync is also a leader in end-to-end, cloud-based e-procurement solutions for governments and agencies.

Ladies Day at Falkirk rugby club saw a packed clubhouse, and a bonus point awarded to the Cala Park club.
Beauty treatments were order of the day in the clubhouse, but though the Sunnysiders remain on course in the battle for the league title with a hard-fought 30-24 win over Ardrossan Academicals - it wasn't pretty.
Only a late tackle from makeshift winger Aubrey Mncube and Logan Bonar halted a on-man breakaway from the visitors with tow minutes to go which would have almost certainly consigned Mark McKenzie's side to a home defeat.
But they held on and Pa Thompson's try on the hour saw them through.
Falkirk were missing Nathan Watts and Matt Morrell but their omissions didn't affect the opening which saw the home side coast into a 17-0 lead.
Alex Penman kicked a penalty after four minutes before adding conversions to tries from David Lyle and the excellent Niall Lear.
Just before the break Ardrossan scored an unconverted try and on the whistle, Graham Gillilands did likewise.
The home defence re-emerged from the interval but were caught napping with another unconverted try, followed quickly after by a converted score to bring the Cala Park scoreboard to 22-17, but another Penman penalty extended the margin slightly.
It was quickly uncomfortable though as in response to Penman's kick, Accies attacked, got over the line and then kicked the conversion to trail by a single point.
Thompson's battling try in the corner was too awkward for Penman to add extra points to - but was enough to register a bonus point on Falkirk's league table.
The late breakaway was halted by Mncube with two minutes to go, much to the relief of the Sunnyside crowd and Falkirk coach Mark McKenzie, who admitted basic mistakes were risking his side's progress. "They showed character to get the win though," he added.

HAMBURG, Germany (AP) - Wladimir Klitschko has looked down on all his opponents since turning pro 16 years ago.
Klitschko will defend his WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight belts against the formidable two-time Polish champion, who also has a longer reach.
Perhaps only 7-foot-2 Nikolai Valuev could have posed a greater physical challenge for the 36-year-old Klitschko, but the ``Russian Giant'' retired in 2009 after losing his WBA title to British fighter David Haye.
Klitschko defeated former cruiserweight Haye in his previous fight in Hamburg in July 2011, and will be fighting for the fourth time in his adopted hometown of Hamburg.
The 32-year-old Wach has won all 27 of his bouts, 15 by knockout, since turning pro in 2005. He's aiming to become Poland's first world heavyweight champion.
Klitschko is 58-3 (51 KOs) going into his 22nd world championship fight - the first since the death of his longtime coach and friend Emanuel Steward last month.
``I will defend the titles that I won together with Emanuel Steward,'' the 36-year-old said at Monday's press conference. ``He wasn't just a coach. Emanuel Steward was a genius, a genius in the ring.''
It will be Klitschko's third defense this year after knockout wins over Jean-Marc Mormeck of France in March and American challenger Tony Thompson in July.
Sylvester Stallone, famous from his role in the Rocky series of films, will attend the bout. It's part of the promotional campaign for the Rocky musical.
Klitschko and his older brother Vitali, together with Stallone, had a hand in the production of ``Rocky: Fight from the Heart,'' which opens in Hamburg on Nov. 18.

"In great deeds something abides. On great fields something stays. Forms change and pass; bodies disappear; but spirits linger, to consecrate ground for the vision-place of souls. And reverent men and women from afar, and generations that know us not and that we know not of, heart-drawn to see where and by whom great things were suffered and done for them, shall come to this deathless field, to ponder and dream; and lo! The shadow of a mighty presence shall wrap them in its bosom, and the power of the vision pass into their souls."
– Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, Gettysburg, 1889

Gartner spends a lot of time reviewing the major Business Intelligence platform vendors and talking to the users of BI to come up with the updates in the Magic Quadrant. Here is the latest one released in Feb 2012. As you can see the notables in the Leaders Quadrant are Oracle taking the top stop in ability to execute with OBIEE and BI Applications (OBIA) and IBM establishing itself as the visionary with Cognos and related offerings.
Look at my similar posting from Jan 2010 here ( http://oraclebiwasig.blogspot.com/2010/01/gartner-2010-magic-quadrant-for.html ) The BI Platform leaders in Jan 2010 were Oracle, IBM, Microsoft, SAS, Microstrategy, SAP (Business Objects) and Information Builders. Compared to 2010, now QlikTech has entered the leaders quadrant. Gartner quotes "QlikTech is a marketing juggernaut; it has brand recognition many times more prominent than a firm with its current market share would expect." I have heard of QlikView when Oracle talks of visualization at the speed of thought. QlikView product has created a lot of industry expectations in that space by using in-memory data store for enhanced graphic capabilities.
Oracle of OBIEE and BI Applications (OBIA) are closet to my day job, so I cannot help critiquing the positing of Oracle. Gartner notes that OBIEE is popular in Oracle shops i.e those who mainly use Oracle Database and Oracle Applications. It has truly global deployment footprint. Gartner noted that a lower percentage of customers use diverse data with OBIEE - I am interpreting that as mainly relational or multidimensional (like OLAP or Essbase) as source of data rather than unstructured and semi-structured data. Oracle has acquired Endeca for building up capabilities in this space and also Oracle Big Data Appliance will compete in that space. Oracle Exalytics announced in Oracle Openworld 2011, is a major addition to the Oracle OBIEE and Essbase family from the visualization at speed of thought perspective. It is the marriage of BI with hardware. Historically, BI platforms were Hardware Vendor agnostic but it changed with SAP HANA and now with Exalytics. While Oracle provided feedback from a few early Exalytics providers, it is yet to hit the field as a generally available product and it is expected to come with OBIEE 220.127.116.11 version. Anyways as SAP HANA and Exalytics become mainstream, it will interesting to see how industry adopts the BI software + H/W paradigm.
Gartner commented on the Oracle's pre-built BI applications (OBIA) that provides data warehouse, ETL connectors and the BI metadata for Oracle Applications like e-business Suite, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, Siebel and going forward for Oracle Fusion Applications. In addition, some of the SAP applications (like Financials) are supported as well. Gartner mentioned about the industry data models that are available as additional options to Oracle Database Enterprise Edition and provide data model, 3rd normal data warehouse for specific industry (like retail, communication, travel etc) along with data marts and starter set of OBIEE metadata. Currently, the Oracle BI Applications are not integrated with the industry models that are more "vertical" in nature and applies more to a specific industry.
So what are the limitations of Oracle BI platform according to Gartner? The complexity of OBIEE platform - OBIEE 11g is relatively new (less than 2 yrs) and remains a skill gap for those using OBIEE 10g. It is interesting to note that 25% of the surveyed customers are using the current release. The Oracle BI Applications since May 2011, support/certify the OBIEE 11g release, making the adoption easier. However, those customers having OBIEE 10g based applications, still need to invest time and effort to move to OBIEE 11g.
What surprised me most that unlike in-spite of the growing interest around Mobile BI, there was not much comment on the Mobile BI capabilities of OBIEE. I remember in 2011, Gartner had commented on the lack of innovation for Oracle Mobile BI as most of the mobile related features started emerging in mid 2011 time frame.
Let me next look at IBM. It scored top points for the completeness of vision with Cognos, SPSS and Netezza under its arsenal. Besides, being a strong service provider via its Global Business Services - GBS, it has skills to implement any BI needs of the customers. On the lines of OBIEE 10g to 11g upgrade, customers had to deal with Cognos 8 to Cognos 10 migration in the last year or so. SPSS and the Watson platform has given IBM a big boost in the advanced analytics side. The latest addition on Cognos family is Cognos Insight a Desktop BI product. It seems higher percentage of users are complaining about the performance of Cognos products. Interesting missing is the explicit mention of the Cognos Adaptive Analytics Framework (AAI) which is the pre-built applications for use against ERP sources like Oracle EBS, SAP or other custom OLTP applications.
General Comments: Gartner uses a few dimensions to compare the BI platforms such as Integration, Information Delivery and Analysis. It is very interesting to note that Information Delivery includes Microsoft Office Integration. In others words, display of information with Excel as the front end is here to stay. I think the important difference between the dreaded word "spreadmart" and the use of Excel as the front end is that authentic information and metadata should reside in an Enterprise grade system whether it is relational database with metadata such as in OBIEE (repository) or in Essbase. Also happy to see the importance of location awareness in Mobile BI platform. My first exposure to real location awareness was via FourSquare application, which is more like a Social Media tool.

Jelly Cakes!
If you visit food blogs much you will probably have picked up on 2 themes over the last week or so…. Superbowl and Valentine's Day. Being that I live in Australia and also that I don't follow sport (except for the Olympics… can't wait for that!), I didn't get involved in all the superbowl cooking (except to drool over all the amazing looking con queso dips). Valentine's Day on the other hand, now that I can get excited about.
We've never really done much for Valentine's Day, we prefer to focus on our anniversary, but when you remove the commercialisation of the day and just embrace it as an excuse/reminder/opportunity to show that special someone just how awesome you think they are, then that's pretty cool. And well, I think there's no better way to do that than with food, and in particular…. Jelly Cakes!
I hear you mumbling, "but what the hell is a jelly cake!". Well, it's kinda like a lamington. The concept is the same…. take a yummy soft sponge cake, fill it (with cream and/or jam, if you feel like it) and roll it in icing and coconut. The difference here is that instead of chocolate icing, you roll the cake in partially set jelly. Yeah. That sounds amazing doesn't it? It's a melting pot of flavours and textures with the super soft cake, the creamy filling, the silky, sweet jelly coating and the dusting of coconut. Drool….
Traditionally these were made in a baking dish called a gem iron. These cast iron pans were similar to cupcake tins except the indentations were shallower and had less severe edges, so they were more of a scoop. They were heated before being used and produced adorable little circular cakes. However, I don't own any and I figured most of you probably don't either, so instead of giving you a recipe that you can only make if you track down and buy a piece of vintage cookware, I modified the recipe slightly, and you can make them in cupcake tins instead! Just means that instead of a bite sized treat, you get to indulge a little more. What. A. Pity!
The first thing you need to do for this recipe is to make the cakes and it really couldn't be any easier. Make sure your butter is nice and soft, throw it into the bowl first and give it a quick beat, just to make sure it's going to combine properly, then throw in all the other cake ingredients and beat for 4 minutes.
It should come out light and fluffy and beautifully pink!
Drop dessertspoonfuls of mixture into patty pans and then bake in a fairly hot oven (200 degrees C) for about 15 minutes or until cooked through.
Turn out of the tin and take the patty pans off. Allow to cool.
Cut small holes in the top of the cakes, fill the centre with the cream (or mock cream) and pop the lid back on. Roll in the partly set jelly and then immediately cover in coconut. Stick them in the fridge until the jelly sets properly. Apparently I got so caught up in the actual making of these, I forgot to take photos of the rolling process. It's pretty straight forward though, the only tricky bit is working out when the jelly is actually ready. You need it to be set enough that it doesn't soak into the cake but rather sticks to the outside, but not so set that you can't roll in it. We put ours in the fridge for probably 25 minutes and it was wobbly when I took it out but once given a stir, was able to be rolled in.

text: Moon Rendezvous is a gorgeous silvery blue, that looks amazing on! The formula is nice and it takes one, MAYBE two coats to be opaque and look nice. It comes off easily as well. Staying power is good too, for me it lasts about 5-7 days with no chips. As with any somewhat metallic shades, there is some streaking, but it isn't horrible. Overall, I would definitely buy this shade again, it is one of my favorites.5

Another shootout loss for Sharks
Updated 11:41 pm, Tuesday, November 5, 2013
The Sharks went past regulation for a third straight game, and have yet to find a way to win.
Cody Hodgson beat Sharks goalie Antti Niemi in the fourth round of the shootout to give the lowly Buffalo Sabres a 5-4 win over San Jose on Tuesday.
"We can't lose that game," Sharks center Logan Couture said. "We've got to find a way, we didn't play very well. That was obvious if you watched the game."
Unlike losing to division rivals Los Angeles and Phoenix in overtime and a shootout, respectively, this setback came against the worst team in the league - albeit one that's beaten San Jose five straight times. Buffalo sported only two wins in 16 games coming into the first of three games on the road following a cross-country flight Sunday.
The Sharks were slow out of the gate, sloppy in the defensive zone, didn't receive the usual solid goaltending they expect from Niemi and couldn't convert any of four power plays.
"We just didn't show up to play," Couture said. "We got to the third period before we turned it on. We got a point, but we've got to figure out how to win a shootout."
Couture was the only Shark to solve Ryan Miller in the shootout as the Buffalo goalie denied Joe Pavelski, Patrick Marleau and Tomas Hertl. Niemi surrendered goals to two of Buffalo's four shooters.
The wild third period featured Buffalo taking a 3-1 lead early, and needing only 15 seconds at 1:05 to convert its first power play of the game (Tyler Ennis scored) before the Sharks struck twice within 70 seconds to tie it on goals by Tyler Kennedy at 3:19 and Hertl at 4:29.
The Sabres scored a fourth goal in a game for the first time, however, when defenseman Henrik Tallinder blasted a shot past Niemi at 7:28.
The Sharks tied it at 16:14, just three seconds after a fourth failed power play expired, when Tommy Wingels dived into the crease to chip a loose puck into the open goal.
"The late push got us a point, but we've got to work on our shootouts," captain Joe Thornton said. "We're working hard. The game's 3-1 and you're thinking it's over, but we worked hard to get back into it."
San Jose held a 51-36 advantage in shots. Kennedy hit a post in overtime when the Sharks outshot the Sabres 6-3. The rebound from Kennedy's shot was poked across the line by Wingels, but the referees waved off the goal and it was not reviewed.
San Jose's sloppiness early in the second gift-wrapped two goals for the Sabres.
A defensive-zone turnover resulted in Drew Stafford filling Niemi's five-hole at 2:36. The Sharks' goalie was victimized again between the pads at 5:53 when Cody McCormick fired a loose puck from the left circle after Andrew Desjardins lost a defensive-zone draw to Zemgus Girgensons.
The Sharks did nothing with their first two power plays - one in each period. San Jose didn't manage a shot on either advantage, but Wingels hit the crossbar where it meets the post on a nice turnaround move in close late in the second power play.
San Jose was effective yet unlucky on power play No. 3, a late second-period chance following Johan Larsson's high stick of Couture. Miller spread wide to stop Marleau with the left pad early in the power play, and stoned Couture with the right pad and skate late.
Brad Stuart saved Niemi in the final minute by blocking a Stafford drive after the goalie gave up the puck and was far from his vacant net.
Marty Havlat scored his first of the season in his third game back from injury to cap a long cycle in the Buffalo end for the only goal of the opening period. Havlat's backhander slipped under Miller at 8:48 after he stopped three shots during the Sharks' extended stay in the offensive zone.
The goal snapped Miller's personal shutout streak of 139.22 against the Sharks.
Recent addition Mike Brown didn't wait long to introduce himself to the home fans, engaging McCormick in a spirited fight 85 seconds after the opening faceoff.

Cybercriminals use email as a gateway for data breaches. This is not old news. New cyberattacks happen almost daily across all industries.
The bad news is, the speed of innovation for email threats has skyrocketed in the last year. If you don't already know that 91 percent of breaches are due to phishing attacks, you at least shouldn't be surprised to learn this statistic. What may shock you is that there has been a 270 percent increase of social-engineering-based whaling attacks since January 2015.
The healthcare industry, in particular, has been a ripe target for cybercriminals seeking to obtain massive amounts of personal, private patient data. Why the focus on healthcare? IT staff at healthcare organizations are often over-burdened and dealing with tight budgets and limited resources. While many IT teams have looked to cloud services to solve these issues and increase their capabilities, many have been unable to make the move due to concerns over their ability to adopt cloud security solutions in a regulated environment.
Mimecast can address these concerns and ease the fear that stops many healthcare organizations from moving to the cloud. We have recently passed the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Security Compliance Assessment. This third-party assessment verifies the safeguards in place to protect health information within Mimecast's software and facilities.
Now, healthcare organizations can take advantage of the benefits of cloud services without worrying about violating stringent rules, policies and regulations. And, most importantly, they can effectively protect patient data from email-based threats like whaling, spear-phishing and ransomware.
Here are three healthful tips to help healthcare organizations have it all when it comes to the cloud: security, compliance, efficiency and a positive patient experience:
- Update your email security: Traditional malware scanning and spam management are not enough. Organizations will invariably have a breach if they are not protecting themselves against the latest generation of email-based threats.
- Transport-level encryption: Emails should be encrypted during transmission between email servers to provide protection from interception.
- Message-level encryption: Because issues can arise with the servers themselves, message-level encryption can be used to protect content on the remote email server.
- Secure webmail: The most secure approach is some form of secure webmail delivery, in which the message is stopped at the gateway. The recipient of the email gets a delivery notification with a link that is used to access the original email. Secure webmail delivery solutions typically require a password to access the email which adds another layer of security to message access, giving worried doctors peace of mind. Ideally, the solution will also track recipient access. Use transport-level encryption for access to the Web server.

There are three categories of applications with regard to networks:
Models for network applications
There are four types of programs used in the process of sending and receiving mail as defined by the CCITT X.400 specification. They are:
Other components of mail service include:
Mail application programming interfaces (APIs) allow e-mail support to be integrated into application programs.
This is a recommendation outlining how an organization can share objects and names on a large network. It is hierarchical similar to DNS, defining domains consisting of organizations, divisions, departments, and workgroups. The domains provide information about the users and available resources on that domain, This X.500 system is like a directory. Its recommendation comes from the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (CCITT).
Used for various electronic communication to enable a group to work together better. Functions may include group discussion, submission of reports and time sheets electronically, an on line help desk database, forms design and access, and creating a document as a group such as configuration management. Groupware software includes Lotus Notes, Microsoft Exchange, internet news, interactive conferencing, and others. Group messaging allows several people to join a conversation.
They are used to share data on a network. DBMS standards for distributed databases:
When information is processed in a distributed database, it is called a transaction. The two phases of a transaction are:
Databases store multiple copies of the data which is called replication. They must be sure the various copies of the database on various servers is accurate with identical data. Data is also partitioned into smaller blocks of data.

Taxi Dining Room
Level 1, Transport Hotel
Federation Square, Melbourne
We walked through Fed Square on a rainy evening after a very disappointing meal at The Quarter in Degraves Street. I remembered a review I'd seen in The Age about the amazing cuisine at The Taxi Dining Room. I suggested we go in for dessert, and luckily my dining accomplice Angela agreed.
When we got out of the lift, we got out into another world. Well dressed waiters, an open kitchen of Chefs going about their business, a beautiful 360 degree view of the city of Melbourne all lit up and magical in the rain at night.
The waiters didn't seem to mind that we were just there for dessert, they were helpful and friendly and knew the menu by heart.
Interestingly a venue that is mostly glass and metal did not seem cold due to the decor choices and the colorful blue and green lighting.
I will definitely return to sample the 7 course detestation menu ($120) and the week day 4 course Bento lunch special ($45). We perused the dinner menu whilst we waited for our desserts, an interesting combination of Japanese and French.
The desserts ranged from $11-$21 and were beautifully presented.
We settled on the beetroot, cherry & chocolate….and the….spiced pear and mousse
The dessert special for the evening – Beetroot Cherry and Chocolate
It was like a little edible garden-bed
And it was wonderful
Fresh Morello Cherries, Crunchy chocolate crumble and cocoa nibs. The beetroot chips tasted slightly salty and oily and were probably my least favorite contribution. The cherry and beetroot reduction was stunning. The chai cream disappeared into the dish – it would have been nice to have a bit more to identify it before it blended in to the other elements – but it didn't matter because this dish was heavenly.
Toe curling-ly good.
Honey caramelized pear with Pedro Ximenez & pear sorbet
This was very interesting. The mousse tasted like malt and honey and had an unbelievably smooth texture. The chocolate touille was nice, but a curl of tempered chocolate would have been better. The pears were stunning. Spiced and sweet and luxurious. On it's own the mousse was slightly bland, but when eaten on the same spoonful with some pear it made sense, it caused fireworks and happiness! The dish lacked something tart, there was a flavor element missing from the balance. The sorbet was so light for something so creamy, the flavor of honey and pears through a smooth smooth quinelle of sorbet with a sprinkling of crunch. If anything is was slightly too sweet, again begging for something sour and tart on the plate.
And absolutely beautiful experience.
I can't wait to go for dinner.
And if I guy took me there on a date, well… I would certainly make it up to him!

BRUNSWICK, Maine – The Tufts softball team swept Bowdoin in their weekend series with 5-2 and 7-1 victories Saturday afternoon.
The Polar Bears drop to 13-9 (2-4 NESCAC) as the sixth-ranked Jumbos improve to 20-2 (6-0 NESCAC) on the season.
Bowdoin scored a pair of runs in the opening inning of the first game. Hannah Wurgaft singled to left field and advanced to second off a single from Toni DaCampo. Gen Barlow advanced both runners with a sacrifice down the third base line. Katie Gately and Adriane Krul each followed with consecutive RBI hits to put Bowdoin on top 2-0.
The Polar Bears carried their lead into the sixth inning before the Jumbos answered. Jo Clair opened the inning with a double to center, before moving to third off a single by Emily Beinecke. Kayla Holland knocked in the RBI single to close the gap. Tufts continued to fill the bases and move runners, until Abby Curran chopped a grounder to second base, allowing Holland to come in and tie the game. The 2-2 game extended into extra innings, where Michelle Cooprider had a three-run RBI double in the eighth inning to put the Jumbos on top, 5-2. Bowdoin was unable to answer in the bottom of the inning as Allyson Fournier shut down the Polar Bears in relief, taking the win with 3.0 perfect innings in the circle. Julia Geaumont tossed six strong innings in the start for Bowdoin, allowing five hits and two earned runs before giving way to Melissa DellaTorre, who took the loss with two innings of relief.
Tufts jumped out to an early lead in the second game. Cooprider singled to left and Beinecke later drover her in to give the Jumbos a 1-0 lead. Forunier continued her dominant pitching performance and retired the Bowdoin lineup, three up, three down, through the opening five innings. Tufts continued to put runs on the board, including a two-run, stand-up triple from Christina Raso in the third, and capitalizing on mistakes in the fifth to increase their lead to 7-0. Julia Geaumont scored the Polar Bears lone run with a solo shot to lead off the sixth.
The Polar Bears will face Southern Maine for a weekday double-header on April 10 at 3:30 PM. Tufts faces Wellesley and Eastern Connecticut in a pair of games tomorrow hosted at Wellesley.

I have changed the proportion to suit my family's taste.
Khandeshi Vangyache Bharit
Adapted from Ruchira by Mrs. Kamalabai Ogale
1 Eggplant, washed, greased
1 small onion, finely chopped
salt to taste
Grind to fine paste
4-5 cloves of garlic
2-3 green chilies
1" ginger
1 tsp oil
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
A generous pinch of asafoetida
1 tbsp chopped cilantro/coriander leaves
1. Roast the eggplant till it is cooked through. Remove the peels, stem. Discard them. Mash the eggplant with a potato masher or a fork. Keep aside.
2. Heat oil in a kadai. Add all the ingredients for tempering.
3. Add chopped onion. Saute till onion is soft and the raw smell has disappeared.
4. Add green masala paste. Saute for 5 minutes.
5. Add eggplant pulp and salt to taste. Saute for another 5 minutes till a homogeneous mass is formed.
6. Cover and cook for about 2-3 minutes.
7. Switch off the gas. Garnish with cilantro while serving.
8. Serve hot with Jowar or bajra bhakri.
Making the eggplant pulp for bharit -
1. Roast the greased eggplant on the gas flame, by rotating it from time to time till the peel is completely charred. Remove the peels, stem and mash the pulp. (Read: messes up the cooking range!)
2. Pre-heat the oven 350 F. Cut eggplants in half. Bake for about 30 mins till they are cooked through. Keep an eye in between to check on the eggplant. You may need few minutes more or less.
3. Broil the eggplant similar to #2.
4. Pressure cook the eggplant just like you would any other vegetable. Peel off, discard the stems and use the pulp. But if you crave for smoky taste, then you have to roast the eggplants. I learned this method of pressure cooking from my mom-in-law.
5. Take out the Barbeque grill and just grill the eggplant. (Summer, summer, where are you?)This post is my contribution to Pooja's Vegetable of the week: Brinjal.

Rulla TV Swivel Stand
Even in a small apartment, different seating areas mean that your TV isn't always in the position for optimal viewing. Enter the Rulla TV Swivel Stand from Ikea--basically, a "lazy susan" for your TV.
At only 3/4" high and only $12.99, the Rulla is a convenient way to make your TV more, well, convenient to you.
Here's the practically invisible Rulla in action (though some of you detail-oriented AT readers noticed it); it blends especially well with the silver TV. In this room, the couch is visible in the picture; the loveseat is to the left of the view of the picture, on a right angle to the couch. The Rulla TV Swivel Stand makes head-on viewing possible from any seated position in the room.

from The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia
- n. Same as clack-dish.
Sorry, no etymologies found.
Whereupon the fifth founder at once took his robe and clap-dish and handed them to him.
Bede returned belated through the forest, they were startled as they approached the gate to hear the weeping and moaning of one who lay forsaken on the cold earth; and when the Prior called out through the darkness, "Be of good cheer, Christian soul, we are coming to your aid," the sufferer replied by rattling the lid of his clap-dish, and at once they knew it was some poor leper who had fallen helpless by the way.
"One that goes like a beggar's clap-dish," said he; "leastwise, it did all the while I was in the garden this morning.

Loretta Lynn is not touring to support a new album. The legendary country singer's tour is not sponsored by Xbox 360, and she is not hitting the road to coincide with a maniacal media blitz.
Lynn is touring because "it's better than sitting on the couch and watching TV."
The point of Lynn's current tour, bringing her to the Paramount Theatre on Wednesday?
"I'll sing whatever anybody wants to hear," she said recently via telephone. "They'll holler out whatever they wanna hear, and I'll do my best to sing them. I don't like to have a show already made up."
It makes sense that Lynn is so casual and down-home with her shows. She's always considered herself a simple woman born in Butcher Hollow, Ky., in 1935 and more famously, a coal miner's daughter. Over her 47-year recording career, Lynn has gifted popular music with some of the most memorable songs in the recorded medium's history.
While most of her hits are decades old, her most recent CD 2004's "Van Lear Rose," cut with producer Jack White of the White Stripes, Dead Weather and Raconteurs was a smashing critical success that also won Lynn a couple of Grammy Awards. The record's single, "Portland, Oregon," is one of the greatest country songs of the decade, a rocked-out love story that feeds off Lynn and White's back-and-forth.
Lynn speaks of White as if he's one her children, doting and admiring.
"Jack White did that album, and I love Jack White," she said. "We need to get together to do another album. He's a little bit different. It was the most country record I ever did. I don't know how we came up with it, I have no idea, but I found out that he had watched the movie ("Coal Miner's Daughter") over and over since the time he was 9.
"We don't get to see each other anymore. He's in Nashville, and I live 100 miles from Nashville. He goes overseas and to Europe a lot. I want him to come to the Grand Ole Opry and do 'Portland, Oregon' with me. On tour we sing it every night, and I have one of the group help me sing it my son, usually. But I'd love to sing that song with Jack, and I'd love to cut another record with him."
Lynn talks with the excitement and amazement of a child, although her many stories are a clear tip to her 74 years of life.
"I feel great better than I did at 30, 'cause back then I had so many kids, and I was trying to work and take care of the house and get on the road," she said. "I'd come in off the road and start cleaning house, and when I was done cleaning, I'd be back on the road. It was hard for me.
"I had a lady that watched the kids, but nobody's gonna take care of the home like you want it taken care of, I don't care who you are. She made sure they ate, and that was it. She's still with me today. She's been with me since I was 28, and now she runs the museum."
A conversation with Lynn is a sprawling affair. Talking about her 30s leads to a conversation about her children, including her twin girls Peggy and Patsy, named after her mom and her old friend Patsy Cline. And that gets her reminiscing about the days she would run around with Cline, talking about music and men.
"It was sad when we lost Patsy," Lynn said. "She was my only girlfriend at the time. She took me under her wing, and when I lost her, it was something else. I still miss her to this day. I wrote 'You Ain't Woman Enough to Take My Man,' and she said, 'Loretta, that's a damn hit.' It shocked me, because you don't expect somebody like Patsy Cline to tell you that you have a hit. Right after she passed, I put the record out, and it was a hit."
Lynn, with her coiffed hair and princess dresses, is definitely a throwback to old Nashville. She thinks Music City has changed for the better and the worse, but she believes that country music is in danger of losing its personality, its uniqueness, because of the proliferation of pop-crossover radio hits.
"I think they oughtta keep it country or pop," she said. "There should be a line between them, and anymore you can't tell. They put a record out, and it goes both ways, and where does that leave 'em? It's not really what I would want. They lose themselves, and they get lost in the shuffle, because they end up not being either one."
