- We advise you to reconsider your need to travel to Algeria at this time because of the high threat of terrorist attack. If you do decide to travel to Algeria, you should exercise extreme caution.
- You should avoid political gatherings and demonstrations, monitor the media for developments which could affect your safety and follow the instructions of local authorities.
- The deteriorating security environment across the Sahel has adversely affected Algeria. In 2013, attacks have occured in Tizi Ouzo (90 km east of Algiers), Tipasa (70 km west of Algiers), Bouira (100 km southeast of Algiers) and Khenchela (540 km southeast of Algiers), demonstrating the high threat of terrorist attack across the country. In January 2013, terrorists attacked a gas facility near In Amenas in the Illizi province near the border with Libya, killing at least 37 foreign workers.
- We regularly receive information indicating that terrorists are planning attacks against a range of targets, including places frequented by foreigners and Western and Jewish interests, as well as premises and symbols associated with the Algerian Government. Terrorists have in the past mounted attacks on significant dates and anniversaries, but attacks could occur anywhere and at any time.
- The US Embassy in Algiers has issued a message advising that it has "instructed embassy employees to avoid US owned or operated hotels through the US Independence Day (4 July) and Algerian Independence Day (5 July) holiday weekend. As of June 2014, an unspecified terrorist group may have been considering attacks in Algiers, possibly in the vicinity of a US branded hotel." We urge Australians to heed this advice.
- You should reconsider your need to travel to the Kabylie region in Tizi Ouzou and Bejaia provinces (east of Algiers) due to the high threat of terrorist attack.
- You should reconsider your need to travel by road beyond the municipality of each of the major towns. All planned road travel beyond town limits should be cleared by local police authorities. We strongly advise against road travel in all parts of Tamanrasset and Illizi provinces in southern Algeria due to the presence of armed groups and high threat of terrorist attack, banditry and kidnapping.
- We strongly advise you not to travel to border areas with Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Libya and Tunisia, south of the Algerian town of Souk Ahras, due to the threat of terrorism, banditry and kidnapping.
- There is an ongoing high threat of kidnapping against Westerners in the north and west regions of Africa, including Algeria. Terrorists may be planning to kidnap Westerners in southern, western and south-eastern Algeria, the remote and desert areas of Mauritania, northern Mali, Niger and Libya. Australians in Algeria should ensure they have appropriate personal security protection measures in place and avoid unnecessary travel in remote areas.
- Australia does not have an embassy or consulate in Algeria. The Canadian Embassy located in Algiers, provides consular assistance to Australians in Algeria. This service includes the issuance of Provisional Travel Documents. The Australian Embassy in Paris, France, can also assist Australians in Algeria.
- Given the high terrorist threat in Algeria, we strongly recommend that you register your travel and contact details with us, so we can contact you in an emergency.
- Be a smart traveller. Before heading overseas:
- organise comprehensive travel insurance and check what circumstances and activities are not covered by your policy,
- subscribe to this travel advice to receive free email updates each time it's reissued.
Entry and exit
Visa and other entry and exit conditions (such as currency, customs and quarantine regulations) change regularly. Contact the nearest Embassy or Consulate of Algeria for the most up to date information.
A valid Yellow Fever Vaccination Certificate is required for all passengers over one year of age who arrive from an area/country where yellow fever is endemic. See the WHO website for a list of yellow fever countries.
Algerian minors, including dual nationals, require the written consent of their father before they are permitted to leave Algerian territory.
Make sure your passport has at least six months' validity from your planned date of return to Australia. You should carry copies of a recent passport photo with you in case you need a replacement passport while overseas.
Safety and security
If you are working in Algeria you should consult our business travel advice which provides advice on risks for Australian employers and individual business travellers for short-term overseas travel for meetings and conferences, longer-term deployments overseas and travel to high-threat remote locations. It aims to assist employers and the employees undertaking business travel to make safe travel decisions.
We advise you to reconsider your need to travel to Algeria at this time because of the high threat of terrorist attack.
The US Embassy in Algiers has issued a message advising that it has "instructed embassy employees to avoid US owned or operated hotels through the US Independence Day (4 July) and Algerian Independence Day (5 July) holiday weekend. As of June 2014, an unspecified terrorist group may have been considering attacks in Algiers, possibly in the vicinity of a US branded hotel." We urge Australians to heed this advice.
There is a risk of retaliatory attacks against Western targets by extremists in Algeria given the instability in neighbouring Mali and Libya. There is a high risk of kidnapping and terrorism across the West African Sahel region. Despite a strong police presence in Algeria's major cities, there remains a risk of extremist attack, particularly in the south and east of Algeria.
In January 2013, terrorists attacked a gas facility near In Amenas in the Illizi province, near the border with Libya. At least 37 foreign workers and one Algerian worker were killed.
We regularly receive information indicating that terrorists are planning attacks against a range of targets, including places frequented by foreigners and Western and Jewish interests, as well as premises and symbols associated with the Algerian Government. Increasing calls to abduct foreigners point to a growing threat against places frequented by foreigners in the region. Terrorists have in the past mounted attacks on significant dates and anniversaries, but attacks could occur anywhere and at any time.
Algerian terrorist groups have been fighting to overthrow the Algerian government since 1992. Al-Qa'ida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), which has signalled its intention to target foreigners, has claimed responsibility for a number of attacks in Algeria and in neighbouring countries since 2006.
Terrorist incidents in Algeria over recent years include:
- On 8 September 2013 extremists attacked a military convoy 40 km southeast of Tizi Ouzo, killing two soldiers and injuring five others.
- On 16 July 2013, four soldiers were killed when their military convoy drove over two underground bombs in the Tipasa wilaya (province), 70 km west of Algiers.
- On 28 April 2013, three municipal guards were killed in a terrorist attack in the vicinity of Bourkika, in the Tipasa wilaya
- On 6 February 2013, militants attacked an Algerian army barracks in Khenchela, 100 km from the Tunisian border. Two militants died and six soldiers were injured.
- On 27 January 2013, an armed group carried out a mortar attack against a camp protecting a gas main in Djebahia, in the Bouria province, 125 km southeast of Algiers.
- On 16 January 2013, 38 people were killed, including foreigners, when extremists attacked a gas facility in Tigantourine, near In Amenas, 100 km from the Libyan border.
In planning your activities, consider the kind of places known to be terrorist targets and the level of security provided. Possible targets include Algerian government offices, clubs, restaurants, foreign embassies, schools, international hotels, expatriate housing compounds, churches and other places of worship, shopping centres, outdoor recreation events, tourist areas, shipping and transport infrastructure, ports, airports and aircraft, security installations and police stations, petroleum and electrical infrastructure and installations or identifiably Western interests including businesses.
You should maintain a high level of vigilance at all times in Algeria. Australians in Algeria should ensure they have appropriate personal security protection measures in place and avoid unnecessary travel in remote areas. You should reconsider your need to travel to Tizi Ouzou, Bouira, Bourmedès and Bejaia provinces (east of Algiers) in the Kabylie region due to the high threat of terrorist attack.
You should reconsider your need to travel by road throughout Algeria, especially in the Tamanrasset and Illizi provinces in southern Algeria due to the presence of armed groups and high threat of terrorist attack, banditry and kidnapping. All road travel outside city limits must be cleared in advance by police authorities. Caution should also be observed in the Kasbah in central Algiers.
Border areas with Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Libya and Tunisia, south of the Algerian town of Souk Ahras:
We strongly advise you not to travel to border areas with Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Libya and Tunisia, south of the Algerian town of Souk Ahras, due to the threat of terrorism, banditry and kidnapping. There is an ongoing high threat of kidnapping against Westerners in the north and west regions of Africa, including remote areas of southern, western and south-eastern Algeria. Credible information indicates that terrorists are planning to kidnap Westerners in these areas. The threat is especially high in the Djanet district in Illizi province and Tamanrasset province, as well as the remote and desert areas of Mauritania, northern Mali, Niger and Libya.
AQIM has taken a number of hostages from remote areas in Algeria and neighbouring countries. A number remain in captivity.
The Australian Government's longstanding policy is that it does not make payments or concessions to kidnappers. The Australian Government considers that paying a ransom increases the risk of further kidnappings, including of other Australians. If you do decide to travel to an area where there is a particular threat of kidnapping, you should ensure you have personal security measures in place, seek professional security advice and take out kidnapping insurance.
For more information about kidnapping, see our Kidnapping Threat travel bulletin.
Terrorism is a threat throughout the world. You can find more information about this threat in our General advice to Australian travellers.
Civil unrest/political tension
Demonstrations take place periodically in Algeria. Large demonstrations have occurred in Algiers and Oran. Incidents of civil unrest have also occurred in Constantine, Annaba, Bejaia, Boumerdès, Sidi Bel Abbes and Tizi Ouzou.
International events may prompt demonstrations and protests. You should avoid political gatherings, protests and demonstrations, particularly outside mosques and educational institutions, as they may turn violent without warning. You should exercise particular caution in the period surrounding Friday prayers. You should also monitor the media for developments which may affect your safety and follow the instructions of local authorities.
The Algerian Government lifted the longstanding State of Emergency in February 2011. However, demonstrations remain illegal in Algiers.
Petty crime such as pick-pocketing, bag snatching and theft from motor vehicles does occur, and is especially a risk in the larger cities. Crime levels are higher after dark.
Deserted beach areas should be avoided, even during daylight hours, because of the threat of banditry and carjacking. You should use a local licensed guide for tours of the Kasbah area of Algiers. Criminals, posing as police officers, have been reported to have carried out robberies, carjacking and to have erected illegal road blocks. Avoid carrying large amounts of money or valuables with you.
Money and Valuables
Before you go, organise a variety of ways to access your money in Algeria, such as credit cards, travellers' cheques or foreign currency. Consult your bank as to whether your ATM card will work in Algeria as some Australian debit and cash cards may not be accepted.
ATM cards and credit cards can be used in hotels and a limited number of businesses in the larger cities. Most international credit cards are accepted by ATMs available in major cities and large international hotels. You should only buy Algerian dinars at bureau de change at international airports, large hotels, and banks in major cities. The dinar cannot be exported.
Make two photocopies of valuable documents such as your passport, tickets, visas and travellers' cheques. Keep one copy with you in a separate place to the original and leave another copy with someone at home.
While travelling, don't carry too much cash and remember that expensive watches, jewellery, cameras and electronic devices such as mobile phones and laptops may be tempting targets for thieves. Airport customs authorities may insist that all foreign currency be declared even when taking domestic flights.
As a sensible precaution against luggage tampering, including theft, lock your luggage. Information on luggage safety is available from Australia's Civil Aviation Safety Authority.
Your passport is a valuable document that is attractive to criminals who may try to use your identity to commit crimes. It should always be kept in a safe dry place. You are required by Australian law to report a lost or stolen passport. If your passport is lost or stolen overseas, report it online or contact the nearest Australian Embassy, High Commission or Consulate as soon as possible.
You are required to pay an additional fee to have a lost or stolen passport replaced. In some cases, the Government may also restrict the length of validity or type of replacement passports.
Local travel
We strongly recommend you stay at international hotels which provide a high level of security.
Australians travelling in Algeria should avoid travelling outside Algiers by road due to the risk of attack and robbery. The government imposes travel restrictions in certain parts of the country. Travellers should check with Algerian authorities for details. Bandits may use illegal checkpoints and blockades on roads to stop vehicles, including buses. It is recommended that internal travel be undertaken by air. However, if travel by road is necessary it should be done during daylight and police authorities should be advised of your itinerary.
Road and traffic conditions in Algeria are very dangerous. A large number of people are killed and injured in traffic accidents, including buses, each year. See also our road travel page.
The land border between Algeria and Morocco is currently closed. There are reports of unexploded landmines in the area of Algeria bordering the Western Sahara region. Mines have been known to shift in sandstorms. A previously unknown minefield was reportedly discovered at Bir El Ater, 75km south of Tebessa, near the Tunisian border, in early October 2010.
The areas bordering the Western Sahara, Mauritania, Mali and Niger are known to be frequented by bandits and armed smugglers. Credible reports indicate that terrorists may be planning to kidnap foreigners travelling between Algeria and Mali.
Airline safety
Please refer to our air travel page for information about aviation safety and security.
When you are in Algeria, be aware that local laws and penalties, including ones that appear harsh by Australian standards, do apply to you. If you are arrested or jailed, the Australian Government will do what it can to help you but we can't get you out of trouble or out of jail.
Information on what Australian consular officers can and cannot do to help Australians in trouble overseas is available from the Consular Services Charter.
Penalties for possession of illegal drugs, including soft drugs, include imprisonment.
Homosexual acts are illegal in Algeria and penalties include imprisonment. See our LGBTI travellers page.
Photography of military or sensitive sites, including military or security personnel, may lead to arrest and detention.
Serious crime, such as murder or treason, may attract the death penalty.
In Algeria it is against the law to attempt to convert Muslims to another faith or to distribute material that may be seen by local authorities as an attempt to convert Muslims to another faith.
Some Australian criminal laws, such as those relating to money laundering, bribery of foreign public officials, terrorism, forced marriage, female genital mutilation, child pornography, and child sex tourism, apply to Australians overseas. Australians who commit these offences while overseas may be prosecuted in Australia.
Australian authorities are committed to combating sexual exploitation of children by Australians overseas. Australians may be prosecuted at home under Australian child sex tourism and child pornography laws. These laws provide severe penalties of up to 25 years' imprisonment for Australians who engage in child sexual exploitation while outside of Australia.
Local Customs
The Islamic holy month of Ramadan is expected to begin in mid-June 2015. During Ramadan, Australians travelling to countries with significant Muslim communities should take care to respect religious and cultural sensitivities, rules and customs. In particular, people who are not fasting are advised to avoid eating, drinking and smoking in public and in the presence of people who are fasting. For more information see our Ramadan travel bulletin.
There are conservative standards of dress and behaviour in Algeria, and you should take care not to offend. Women are advised to wear loose-fitting clothes that cover the arms and legs. Women should consider wearing a headscarf, particularly in rural and traditional areas and near mosques, religious shrines and religious educational institutes. If in doubt, seek local advice.
Physical contact between men and women in public should be avoided. Public displays of affection can cause offence, particularly in rural and traditional areas and near mosques, religious shrines and religious educational institutes.
The normal work week in Algeria is Sunday to Thursday.
Information for Dual Nationals
Algeria does not recognise dual nationality. This may limit the ability of the Australian Government to provide consular assistance to Australian/Algerian dual nationals who are arrested or detained. We recommend you travel on your Australian passport at all times.
Australian/Algerian dual national males may be subject to compulsory military service and other obligations when in Algeria and should seek advice from the nearest Embassy or Consulate of Algeria, well in advance of travel.
Children born of an Algerian father automatically acquire Algerian citizenship at birth. Child custody decisions are based on local religious laws. Australians involved in custody and other family disputes should consult a lawyer before they leave Australia for advice on the impact of religious law on their family circumstances, including their departure from Algeria.
Dual national Algerian/Australian citizens should note that Algeria has been listed by the Government of the United States of America as one of the 14 countries whose citizens will be subjected to a full body and cabin baggage search on entering the United States.
Our Dual nationals page provides further information.
We strongly recommend that you take out comprehensive travel insurance that will cover any overseas medical costs, including medical evacuation, before you depart. Confirm that your insurance covers you for the whole time you'll be away and check what circumstances and activities are not included in your policy. Remember, regardless of how healthy and fit you are, if you can't afford travel insurance, you can't afford to travel. The Australian Government will not pay for a traveller's medical expenses overseas or medical evacuation costs.
It is important to consider your physical and mental health before travelling overseas. We encourage you to consider having vaccinations before you travel. At least eight weeks before you depart, make an appointment with your doctor or travel clinic for a basic health check-up, and to discuss your travel plans and any implications for your health, particularly if you have an existing medical condition. The World Health Organization (WHO) provides information for travellers and our health page also provides useful information for travellers on staying healthy.
The standard of medical facilities in Algeria varies. Public medical services and facilities in the capital, Algiers, vary from adequate to limited. Private medical facilities, especially in the capital, Algiers, are generally better equipped than public facilities and can meet normal international accreditation standards. Medical facilities in remote areas, including mountainous and desert regions, can be very limited or non-existent. Travellers may wish to consider carrying limited medical supplies for personal use. Foreigners will be required to pay an up-front deposit for medical services.
In the event of a serious illness or accident, medical evacuation to a destination with appropriate facilities such as Marseille or Paris in France would be necessary. Costs for a medical evacuation could range between $A7,000 and $A50,000.
Insect-borne diseases (such as leishmaniasis and West Nile fever) are prevalent in Algeria. There is also a risk of malaria. We encourage you to consider taking prophylaxis against malaria and to take measures to avoid insect bites including using insect repellent at all times, wearing long, loose-fitting, light-coloured clothing and ensuring your accommodation is mosquito proof.
Water-borne, food-borne, parasitic and other infectious diseases (including tuberculosis, typhoid, hepatitis, meningitis and rabies) are prevalent with more serious outbreaks occurring from time to time. We advise you to boil all drinking water or drink bottled water and avoid ice cubes and raw and undercooked food, particularly outside metropolitan areas. Do not swim in fresh water to avoid exposure to parasitic diseases such as schistosomiasis (bilharzia). Seek medical advice if you have a fever or are suffering from diarrhoea.

A fireworks display Saturday, June 2, at 10:30 p.m. Spectators may view the fireworks from the academic quad in front of Bertrand Library. Parking will be available in the farm lot located off Seventh Street or above the stadium. Dent Drive between Seventh Street and Stadium will be closed from 9 to 11:30 p.m.
According to Melissa McBrayer, assistant director of alumni programs at Bucknell, "The fireworks were a new addition to Reunion last year, and we're very excited to be able to invite the community again," she said.
Alumni events
Bucknell alumni who return to campus participate in a variety of activities including Alumni College classes on the Bucknell Environmental Center, the campus master plan and astronomy; children's activities; and open house gatherings for fraternities, sororities, athletics and other groups.
A highlight of the weekend is Reunion Rally, when all returning alumni gather in the Weis Center to present class gifts and recognize the Alumni Award winners honored by the Bucknell University Alumni Association Board of Directors.

I like the turtles and would love to see the pencils and line work alone because I get the sense that the colors don't do it justice. The use of white is somewhat blinding and it does'nt seem clean. I'm not sure what the colorist was trying relay but, it does'nt work. In my opinion of course.
me too me too! the turtles were my favorite heroes in my childhood and i still love them today. esspecially those "berserk-style" turtles, when they look like lunatic killer-monsters (like this pic shown on the site, when loaded).
great work!
and yeah, i agree, if possible lineart-only would be nice to see.
It looks like if the lineart were removed, the coloring wouldn't even hold up any of the forms.. obviously trying something more unique, but I just don't think it does anything for it.

Synopses & ReviewsPlease note that used books may not include additional media (study guides, CDs, DVDs, solutions manuals, etc.) as described in the publisher comments.
Publisher Comments:
This book lays bare the logic of forgotten abuse. Psychologist Jennifer Freyd's breakthrough theory explaining this phenomenon shows how psychogenic amnesia not only happens but, if the abuse occurred at the hands of a parent or caregiver, is often necessary for survival. Freyd's book will give embattled professionals, beleaguered abuse survivors, and the confused public a new, clear understanding of the lifelong effects and treatment of child abuse.

Nature's Plus Source of Life Red Energy Shake delivers:
Multiple Vitamin-Mineral SupplementsWhat do they do?Multiple vitamin-mineral (MVM) supplements, sometimes known as multivitamin-mineral supplements, contain a variable number of essential and/or non-essential nutrients. Their primary purpose is to provide a convenient way to take a variety of supplemental nutrients from a single product, in order to prevent vitamin or mineral deficiencies, as well as to achieve higher intakes of nutrients believed to be of benefit above typical dietary levels. Many MVMs contain at least 100% of the Daily Value (DV) or the U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowance (USRDA) of all vitamins that have been assigned these recommended values. Mineral levels may be lower, or in the case of high potency MVMs, most or all mineral levels may also be at 100% of DV or USRDA. Micronutrients that should be included in a complete MVM are vitamin A (or beta-carotene), vitamin B-complex (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and/or niacinamide, vitamin B6, folic acid (folate), vitamin B12, pantothenic acid, and biotin), vitamin C, vitamin D, and vitamin E, and the minerals calcium, magnesium, zinc, iodine, selenium, copper, manganese, chromium, molybdenum, and possibly iron. Some MVMs also contain vitamin K, but people taking the medication warfarin (Coumadin™) should consult their doctor before taking vitamin K supplements. Phosphorus is another essential dietary mineral, but is so abundant in the diet that it does not need to be included in an MVM formula. The only exception is for elderly people, whose diets tend to be lower in phosphorus. Calcium interferes with phosphorus absorption, so older people who are taking a calcium supplement might benefit from taking additional phosphorus.
Potassium is an unusual case, as adequate amounts of potassium cannot, by law, be sold in nonprescription products. Thus potassium, when included in an MVM formula, represents only a trivial amount. MVMs may contain iron, but these should be taken only by people who have been diagnosed as having, or being at high risk of, iron deficiency, or who have a history of frequent iron deficiency. Some nutrients may be beneficial at levels above what is possible to obtain from diet alone, and an MVM formula can provide these levels as well. Nutrients that may be useful to most people in larger amounts include vitamin C, folic acid, and calcium. Vitamin E has long been thought to protect against heart disease beginning at 100 IU per day, but more recent research has cast doubt on the value of vitamin E for heart-disease prevention. Large amounts of vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, and pantothenic acid are often included in MVM formulas. Some people claim to experience improvements in mood, energy, and/or overall well-being when taking higher-than-RDA amounts of B vitamins. While there is not a great deal of scientific research to support those observations, one double-blind study of healthy volunteers found that an MVM supplement significantly reduced anxiety and perceived stress levels, and possibly improved energy and the ability to concentrate.
The importance of including the nonessential nutrient beta-carotene in MVMs remains speculative. The synthetic beta-carotene found in most MVMs clearly does not prevent cancer and may increase the risk of lung cancer in smokers. Therefore, the inclusion of synthetic beta-carotene in MVM formulas is of questionable value, and it should be avoided by smokers. This concern was validated by the results of a large study in which male smokers who supplemented with synthetic beta-carotene had an 18% increase in incidence of lung cancer, compared with those given a placebo. On the other hand, because beta-carotene can be converted to vitamin A without causing vitamin A toxicity, some manufacturers use beta-carotene as a source of vitamin A. In contrast to synthetic beta-carotene, however, natural beta-carotene and several other carotenoids may be helpful in preventing certain diseases, including some cancers. Increasingly, natural beta-carotene and several other carotenoids are found in higher quality MVMs.
Another class of non-essential nutrients is the flavonoids, which have antioxidant and other properties and have been reported by some, though not all, researchers to be linked with a reduced risk of heart disease. MVM supplements also frequently include other nutrients of uncertain benefit in the small amounts supplied, such as choline, inositol, and various amino acids. Preliminary and double-blind trials have shown that women who use an MVM containing folic acid, beginning three months before becoming pregnant and continuing through the first three months of pregnancy, have a significantly lower risk of having babies with neural tube defects (e.g., spina bifida) and other congenital defects. In one double-blind trial, schoolchildren received, for three months, a daily low-potency vitamin-mineral tablet containing 50% of the USRDA for most essential vitamins and the minerals. The subjects were "working class," primarily Hispanic, children, aged 6 to 12 years. Dramatic gains in certain measures of IQ were observed in about 20% of the supplemented children. These gains may have been due to the correction of specific nutrient deficiencies (for example, iron) found in these children. However, it was not possible in this study to identify which nutrients caused the increases in IQ.

Awards Presentation highlights Induction Eve in Cooperstown

- Hall of Fame Awards Presentation, New Pitch Count Game Show Highlight Induction Eve in Cooperstown
With the biggest moment on the Cooperstown calendar just hours away, the village known as the "Home of Baseball" saw thousands of fans celebrating baseball's weekend and cheering on some of the games most historic contributors.
Those attending Saturday's Hall of Fame Awards Presentation, held under sunny afternoon skies at Doubleday Field, saw Tim McCarver of Fox Sports presented with the Ford C. Frick Award for broadcast excellence and the Toronto Sun's Bob Elliott receive the J.G. Taylor Spink Award for meritorious contributions to baseball writing.
"I received a text from Al Michaels today. The text was very, very thoughtful and very nice. And I also received a text from Bob Costas," said McCarver, the former big league catcher in his fourth decade in a broadcast booth, prior to the ceremony. "And the reason I'm dropping those two names is to show you the importance of the weekend that Bob (Elliott) and Barry (Larkin) and the family of Ron Santo and I are about to experience.
"For me personally, it is huge in scope. I'm humbled by the whole experience. It's easy to say that with the 45 Hall of Famers that are going to be there later on this afternoon. And it's very difficult to be here without being overwhelmed. And I am. And I'm trying to get over it so I can get through my talk."
While Elliott, a national fixture in his native Canada for the past 30 years, also called the honor "humbling," he did recall with some joy a school guidance counselor who wasn't exactly encouraging.
"He said, 'What do you want to be?' and I said, 'I'd like to work at the newspaper.' So he's looking at my marks and laughing and said, 'You've got a 61 in English Composition and you've got a 63 in English. You've got no chance,'" Elliott told the assembled media prior to accepting the Spink Award. "I said, 'Sir, I've been working there for three years on weekends.' He said, 'You can never work there fulltime. Maybe you can get a job at the Napanee Beaver.' It's a bi-weekly.
"I went back to a reunion about 20 years later and I couldn't find him. Not that I was looking for him," he said with a smile.
Prior to the Awards Presentation – which also celebrated the three living managers who skippered the St. Louis Cardinals to World Series titles: Hall of Famers Red Schoendienst and Whitey Herzog, as well as Tony La Russa, who led the Cards to the 2011 championship – the historic field played host to a new game show, Pitch Count, which involved Hall of Fame pitchers Phil Niekro and Bert Blyleven teaming up with fans.
As evening fell, the third annual Hall of Fame Parade of Legends was just getting under way. Traveling in Ford trucks down Main Street and concluding at the front steps of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, the Hall of Famers arrived for a private reception.
The busy day began with the Hall of Famer Golf Tournament held at the Leatherstocking Golf Course. Located on the shores of Otsego Lake, the greatest names in the game's history tried to show they were able to swing something more than a bat. During a stop at the first hole, the Hall of Fame participants not only joked ("I wish I could still shoot my age," said Al Kaline. "I'm 77 and I don't come close to 77 anymore.") but shared their thoughts on this year's inductees – Barry Larkin and the late Ron Santo.
"I've been pushing for Santo for a long time and so have a lot of other people," said Santo's onetime Cubs teammate Lou Brock. "I remember his courage. Santo was a person with Type 1 diabetes that daily went to his locker, pulled out insulin, gave himself a shot, and went out on the field and made the best of it. To me that was courage at a time and point where people were actually ashamed to have other people know that was happening to them. But he had no shame. That's what I remember."
"It's great to have my friend here," added Cubs legend Billy Williams, "because Ernie (Banks) is a Hall of Famer, Fergie Jenkins is Hall of Famer, and I'm a Hall of Famer. When he said out in Chicago, 'This is my Hall of Fame' when his number was retired, in his heart he didn't mean it. I know he wanted to be here where his teammates are."
At an inductee press conference held at the nearby Clark Sports Center, three of Santo's children shared their thoughts on a father who passed away at the age of 70 in 2010
"We're as a family just very honored to be here representing our father who we know very much wanted to be here, of course, and was looking forward to it," said son Ron Jr. "We're very honored and very proud of him and hoping that we can represent him the best that we know we can."
"We're able to experience a little bit of what my dad would and it's a remarkable feeling," said Santo's daughter, Linda Santo Brown. "I feel in a way he's experiencing it through us and that's what gives us true satisfaction."
With less than 24 hours before being honored with his bronze plaque in front of thousands of fans sporting Cincinnati red, Larkin began his pre-induction press conference talking about what the lead-up has been like.
"I'm really excited about this. The last couple of days have been great," said Larkin, who will be inducted along with Ron Santo as the Class of 2012 at 1:30 p.m. ET on Sunday in Cooperstown. "I've spent a lot of time with many of the Hall of Famers and they've made me feel very welcomed here and very comfortable.
"We had a golf tournament this morning and I think my team, which was comprised of my two brothers and my financial guy, we were 22-under. Now, my financial guy, he's the guy that kept score. I had nothing to do with that."
As for his induction speech, Larkin, the longtime Reds shortstop now working for ESPN, gave some clues as to what to expect.
"I'm a pretty transparent person, kinda what you see is what you get. And I think I've been very vocal about the keys to my success as a player. And what those are basically is what I'll speak about during my speech," Larkin said. "It's the perspective that guys gave me when I first got to the big leagues. The tone that they set, the work acumen that I followed, the work ethic that they talked about, the requirements to be a professional, how to handle success and failure, all those things that my mother and father instilled in me as a young boy but they were reinforced by the players on the team.
"So not only did they help me on the field with becoming a better player but they helped me also become a better person on and off the field."
Let the countdown begin.

Alice in Wonderland - Further information
Unsuk Chin
David Henry Hwang, Unsuk Chin after Lewis Caroll
World première on June 30, 2007 in the Nationaltheater
Alice is dreaming. Consumed by curiosity and full of joie de vivre she sets off for a world which it is only possible to enter if one has the right key: imagination. On her way through this dream world she arrives at the house of the White Rabbit, with his waistcoat and his pocket watch, she comes across the hatter, the March hare and the dormouse at the mad tea party and plays croquet with the courtiers of the Queen of Hearts. In the light-hearted tales of the British mathematician and writer Charles L. Dodgson, better known as Lewis Carroll, the philosophical and the nonsensical are closely linked. Generations of young children and people who have remained young at heart have proved his Alice in Wonderland (1865) to be a cult book which appeals to all generations worldwide. The Korean composer Unsuk Chin and her North American librettist David Henry Whang (the author of the successful piece M Butterfly) also succumbed to the charm and magic of this book. Unsuk Chin has caused quite a sensation in the last few years on an international level with her concert pieces and orchestral works. Her particularly colourful tonal language unites clear structures and expressiveness without detracting from the value of catchy melodies and instrumental virtuosity as means of expression. Light and colour are caught in the music of her compositions and developed into theatrical tonal gestures with a wonderful sense of the humourous. In this production by Achim Freyer, an artist among directors, the multi-layered story Alice in Wonderland has its world premiere as an opera for all generations.

Jeweler opens in Birch Bay Square
Citrine, rutilated quartz, and fire opal are just a few of the gems that catch Candice Gerard's eye.
Gerard, owner of Candi's Jewelry and Gift Gallery, said she turned a life-long hobby with jewelry and gemstones into a business when she opened her original store in Ferndale four years ago, specializing in stone identification, jewelry repairs and custom sterling silver and gold wire wrapping.
"I just love anything that sparkles or glitters," said Gerard. "It's a real passion."
She moved her business from Ferndale to Birch Bay Square earlier this November when she saw an opportunity to expand and reach a new clientele with the redevelopment of Birch Bay Square, formerly known as the Peace Arch Factory Outlet.
Gerard holds a degree in gemology from the Gemological Institute of America in Carlsbad, California. A regular member of the Mount Baker Gem and Rock club, she also stores her collection of stone identification manuals behind the counter.
"I'm always looking at books," she said. "Even though I graduated, I still like to study."
She has also hired her sister, Sandra Schoenherr, who has more than 15 years of retail management experience, to manage the store's specialty gifts.
"We're really excited to be here," said Schoenherr. "We see a lot of potential for growth here. It just seemed like the happening place to be."
Schoenherr said the two have focused on products from Washington such as glass fired with Mt. St. Helens ash. They have also imported novelty items from Spain, Romania, Italy and New York such as stemware made from recycled glass and glycerin soaps that replicate the look and shape of authentic gemstones.
"We want to bring in things that are unique, which is why we expanded into selling giftware," Schoenherr said. "It's part business, part hobby."
Candi's Jewelry
and Gift Gallery is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday
through Saturday and from 1 to 6 p.m. on Sunday.
They are located at Birch Bay Square at 3420 Birch Bay-Lynden Road in Custer and can be reached by calling 366-0121.

A new Clay County Tiger football coach may be in place by the middle of May, according to school superintendent Reecia Samples.
The job posting is currently online at www.khsaa.org and the superintendent says they would love to have a new coach in place within four weeks.
"That would be an optimistic timetable," she said.
Embattled Manchester City Supervisor Wes Hacker was fired from city employment last Thursday, according to Mayor George Saylor.
Former Clay County resident Amy Harris, 23, is improving after suffering life-threatening injuries during a tornado that struck Laurel County early this month.
Clay County Property Valuation Administrator (PVA) Phillip Mobley has been fined by the state Executive Branch Ethics Commission for hiring his wife in his office.
The home of James Hibbard and his wife at 292 Hibbard's Branch Road was destroyed by fire Tuesday afternoon.

Field Cress (Pepper Grass; Pepperweed)
Family:Brassicaceae (mustards)
Annual with densely hairy stems, much branched toward top. Flowers typical of the mustard family, with 4 small, white petals; arising from the many upper branches. Blooms April–June. Basal leaves dandelion-like with rounded tops, short; stem leaves alternate, ascending, about 1½ inches long, entire or crenate (shallowly toothed), clasping the stem, and having 2 pointed "ears" (auricles). Seedpods nearly round, fairly large (technically called silicles), with 2 seeds each; the fruits are ornamental due to their quantity. Pepper grass in fruit looks like a candelabra. The plant looks grayish due to its fine hairs.
Size:Height: usually 10–18 inches.
Habitat and conservation:A native of Europe and Asia that is widely naturalized on our continent. Occurs in fields, pastures, waste places, roadsides, railroads, and other disturbed places.
Distribution in Missouri:Statewide.
Human connections:The seeds of various types of field cresses (genus Lepidium) have been used as a flavoring for meat, salads, and soups. Seed-eating pet birds such as canaries also relish the seeds. Other historic uses include various medicinal applications, with varying degrees of effectiveness.
Ecosystem connections:Several types of wild birds eat the seeds, and insects visit the flowers. Small, annual plants are important colonizers of disturbed ground, binding the soil with their roots and breaking the force of raindrops with their leaves, preventing erosion. They prepare the soil for other plants.

The Aiken Department of Public Safety is confirming SLED is investigating, after a man led an officer on a chase through North Augusta and Edgefield County Sunday night.
Officers said it started as a traffic stop, but the driver wouldn't pull over. He was 68-year-old Earnest Satterwhite. Sunday night around 7P.M., Public Safety Officer Justin Craven tried to make the traffic stop on Knox Avenue, in front of the Shoppes of North Augusta. Officials said Officer Craven suspected White was driving drunk, but White didn't pull over for the officer. Instead, he sped up and chase began.
White led Officer Craven into Edgefield County, on Highway 25. He caused two separate accidents and destroyed property. It came to a stop on Rose Road, still on Highway 25. Officer Craven approached the car, but a fight started and he fired shots.
South Carolina Law Enforcement Division Spokesman Thom Berry said, "This is a normal process for SLED to come in and investigate anytime a law enforcement officer has to use their weapon. This marks the 8th time this year that there has been an officer involved shooting in South Carolina."
Public safety said in a statement Monday, they have no further comment about what happened. It's in SLED's hands and they are quote, cooperating with them fully. SLED said their investigation is ongoing.

Over the past several weeks, my television has been receiving high-definition feeds of ABC, Fox, NBC and CBS, even though I haven't paid Comcast or Time Warner Cable a single penny for service. I feel as though I'm committing some sort of crime by getting such a crisp picture on my big-screen Bravia without the cable company's consent — I imagine the Comcast-stapo will be busting down my door any day now — but actually, what I'm doing is totally legal, thanks to a new gadget that accesses high-definition TV with no need for a cable subscription.

Facebook's rocky initial public offering hasn't stopped life at the world's biggest online social network. On Thursday, the company unveiled a camera app for the iPhone.
The app can be downloaded from Apple's App Store and works like most other camera applications for smart phones. To take a photo, you tap a camera icon in the upper left corner of your screen, aim and shoot. You can then add filters, crop or tilt your photo, and share it on Facebook.
For years, online dating sites have promised that their almighty algorithms could turn strangers into soulmates.
But recent research suggests that their love-engineering is about as foolproof as flirting with random people at a bar, and a new breed of dating sites are using social networks, rather than science, to help singles find romance.
Online dating services such as theComplete.me and Circl.es are looping singles' friends into the matchmaking process in an effort to connect people to each other's acquaintances and keep suitors from weaving the kind of elaborate fictions that characterize many profiles on traditional dating sites.
"Facebook has created a shift from online dating to social dating," said online dating expert Julie Spira. "Facebook technically could be the world's largest dating site. And if you look at these new players, they're taking advantage of the fact that they have this fabulous universe of people."
If you've signed in to almost any website on the Internet, you've probably encountered a dastardly CAPTCHA. A CAPTCHA is a common security tool that asks you to type the words or letters you see in a box to prove you're a human; those words or letters are usually swirled or mangled, difficult for a computer or bot to make out but hypothetically easy for a human to read.
A typical CAPTCHA.
I say "hypothetically easy" because these mangled-text CAPTCHAs can often be frustrating, even impossible, to decipher. (There's a Tumblr dedicated solely to so-called "CAPTCHA Fails".) So thank goodness a new company, Are You A Human, has come up with what seems a much more elegant solution: Instead of attempting to decipher some indecipherable text, you are asked to defeat a simple arcade game to prove that you are real.
Womp womp.
Facebook's shares fell again on Tuesday, leaving them down nearly one-third from Friday's highs as questions mounted over the company's financial prospects and its ability to grow fast enough to meet the hype surrounding its stock.
After Friday's nearly flat close and Monday's 11 percent plunge, the stock tumbled again Tuesday — 4.2 percent to $32.60 in the first 90 minutes of trading. That was a decline of 28 percent from Friday's high of $45, but well off its lows of the morning.

Here's a Cisco document about Attaching a Modem to the Console Port of a Cisco Router. See this modem to router connection article also. It's better to connect the modem to the console port than the AUX port. See the second article for reasoning.
I totally agree with Labnuke99: Connecting via dial-up should be across a WIC or some other device that is wired into your console / Serial / Ethernet ports. The AUX port is not designed to take traffic like you're asking…

Computer Human Interface
Rating as probably one of the stranger human-computer interfaces we've seen, the Sensabubble allows users to receive alerts and feedback from their connected devices in the form of images, text, and smell – all encased in and projected on smoke-filled bubbles. Popping away annoying alerts is viscerally more satisfying than swiping them off, but this isn't a toy. It's part of research being presented at the ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems by researchers from the University of Bristol. Read More
The University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom has unveiled a virtual "talking head" that is capable of expressing a range of human emotions. The team believes that the lifelike face, called Zoe, is the most expressive controllable avatar ever created, and could one day be used as a digital personal assistant. Read More
This is one of the coolest toys I've played with in years. LiveScribe's smartpens have the ability to instantly digitize anything you write in a notebook and send it to a tablet or PC as a handwritten note. But here's the cool part: they can also record the sound you were hearing when you wrote those notes, timecoded to each penstroke, so, for example, you can tap on a lecture note and hear exactly what the professor was saying when you were writing it. The latest LiveScribe pen, the Sky Wifi, has built-in wireless connectivity that quickly syncs your notes, audio and all, with the ubiquitous Evernote application so you can read and play them back on your PC, tablet or smartphone. It's a fascinating device that revolutionizes the taking, usage and sharing of handwritten notes. We spent ten days with a LiveScribe Sky 4 GB. Read More
While the Nintendo Wii and Microsoft Kinect are largely responsible for bringing gesture control into the lounge room, a new technology from OMRON promises to make gesture control mobile. Building on the company's core "OKAO Vision" facial image sensing technology, OMRON has developed a new hand gesture recognition technology compatible not only with Windows PCs, but also Android and iOS mobile operating systems.

A see-through screen, digital 3D objects manipulated by hand, perspective adjustments according to the user's viewing angle - these are the core features of a prototype computer desktop user interface created by Microsoft's Applied Sciences Group. The prototype uses a "unique" Samsung transparent OLED display through which the user can see their own hands to manipulate 3D objects which appear to be behind the screen. Read More
Nobody likes having to deal with automated telephone services, that say wonderful things like, "You said 'Beelzebub,' is that correct?". Such services may get slightly less annoying, however, thanks to research being carried out at Spain's Universidad Carlos III de Madrid and Universidad de Granada. A team of scientists from those institutions have created a computer system that is able to recognize the emotional state of a person speaking to it, so that it can alter its behavior to make things less stressful.

If the horse is not humanity's favorite animal, it should be, as it has served us far better than any other domesticated animal. It has been the predominant form of personal transport for the last millennia, has done more work for us than any animal, and its mastery became the fundamental military technology which helped Genghis Khan build the biggest empire in history. The notion of using advanced technologies to replicate and extend the personality and functionality of the horse gave Honda a wonderful platform to explore in its latest design concept. Part sci-fi and part technology-crystal-ball-gazing, here's what a synthetic Horse V 2.0 might look like 200 years hence. Read More
HipDisk - bending over backwards for music
We've seen a number of weird and wonderful musical creations here at Gizmag but we have to agree with the creator of the hipDisk when she describes it as possibly the most undignified musical instrument ever. This strange interactive sonic system is made up of a pancake tutu-like disk at the hip and another above the waist which cause a sound to be generated when the two disks meet at specific points around the edge. In order to get to those points and create simple monophonic tunes or melodies, the wearer has to twist, turn, bend or stretch so that the two conductive contact points meet. Read More
It's often during those early stages of learning to play a new instrument that many people give up in despair. Even though you swear that you're hitting the right notes, everything still sounds like an old gramophone recording played at the wrong speed. If only you could let someone take control of your hands to fast forward through the arduous repetition phase before muscle memory kicks in and the piece you're trying to play begins to sound more like it should. That's precisely the kind of potential offered by the PossessedHand project. Electrode-packing armbands placed on a user's forearm send electrical pulses through the muscles to take control of the movement of the hand - with fledgling Koto players testing the system having demonstrated greater accuracy and speedier progress.

Researchers develop interactive, emotion-detecting GPS robot
While computer systems are now very capable of recognizing vocal input, they offer minimal interactive feedback. A team of Cambridge University researchers have now developed a system that can not only detect a user's emotional state, but can also make expressive responses of its own. Using a robotic likeness of the godfather of the programmable computer, Charles Babbage, the team has hooked the system up to a driving simulator and created a computerized driving companion and navigator that reacts to the driver in much the same way as a human passenger.

Albany Technical
College is recognized by Fire Science Online as having one of the best first
responder programs in the country.
Albany Tech's Fire Science program teaches students how to save
lives. The program was named in a national online publication as one of the top
100 first responder programs in the country.
"So we have a goal to reach and we reached that goal. Our
last emergency medical class had a 100 pass rate," said Don Laye, Director
of Fire Science Technology Program.
Albany Tech offers 8 first responder's courses. Don Laye, Director
of the Fire Science Tech program, says it's the teachers that set this program
apart and they seek only the best.
"We make the point that our instructors have the in-service
education. Also reaching a level above and beyond," said Don Laye.
The first responder program at Albany Tech gets students ready for
their real jobs.
"We do live burns. We do all of the training with ladders,
search and rescue. We're excited about our training facility here. They get all
the hands on training they need," said Don Laye, Director of Fire Science
Technology Program.
Albany Tech was selected out of 2,500 schools. In this growing
program, Don Laye believes graduates can take the skills they've learned and
use them anywhere.
"If they pass the national certification, not only in Albany
and Southwest Georgia area but anywhere in the United States," said Don
Laye says the program will continue to rise to the top.
Albany Tech officials say they have state of the art equipment
that instructors use to teach students.
According to Firescience.org, Albany Technical College ranks 87th on the list. 8 other colleges and universities from Georgia made the list.

with John Daido Loori, Roshi
For most of Buddhism's 2,500 year history, the teachings have primarily been applied in a monastic context. Most contemporary Western practitioners, however, are homedwellers who have an entirely different frame of reference. In these four probing dialogues on lay practice, Daido Roshi examines how the Eight Gates training matrix of the Mountains and Rivers Order provides guidelines for homedwelling Buddhist practitioners. The first session focuses on the core home practices of zazen, liturgy, academic study, art and body practice; the second explores work and the principles of Right Livelihood; the third takes up the precepts, the moral and ethical teachings of the Buddha; and the fourth session addresses opportunities for practice in our relationships with partners, families, colleagues, and neighbors. Full of insight and practical advice, this 9-track set offers invaluable support for stabilizing and vitalizing your home practice.

The DeKalb County School Board meets officially for the first time on Wednesday night after six new members were sworn in. With the district's accreditation on the line, and the confidence of the county, the board will have a lot to discuss.
Governor Nathan Deal appointed six new members to the board last week, replacing the members he removed last month. The removals came after an accrediting agency put the district on probation.
Interim superintendent Michael Thurmond says the board's first order of business will be to restore full accreditation.
"I'm excited and looking forward to working with the new members of the board as well as the existing members to focus our attention now on improving academic performance for all of our students. The men and women are well qualified and I think they'll provide excellent service to the district," said Thurmond.
But not everyone is as enthusiastic about the new board as Thurmond. The Georgia NAACP and other community leaders held a town hall meeting at Thankful Baptist Church in Decatur on Tuesday night. Many of the people there said Governor Deal's replacement of six school board members was unconstitutional.
The outgoing members of the school board challenged Governor Deal's decision to remove them in court but lost.

In an unusual scheduling twist, Mt. Zion and Union Grove faced off for the second straight game Tuesday night.
It was an instance where Mt. Zion coach Maurice Triche said he asked that the game be moved from its originally scheduled date Jan. 4 to Tuesday night to allow the Clayton County school's students a chance to attend.
It was Mt. Zion that benefited from the second look.
Getting 24 points from J.R. Holder, Mt. Zion kept pace in Region 4-AAAAA, beating Union Grove 71-49 in a game where two runs – one in the second quarter and one in the third – run made the difference.
The Bulldogs, a year removed from a 22-loss season, now has its sights set on bigger things.
Mt. Zion, which beat Union Grove 61-51 Saturday night, got 12 points from Trent Molden and 10 from Josh Jones.
"I think they defended me a lot harder Saturday," said Holder, who has signed with Jacksonville University. "They played a lot more man-to-man in that game. Today I had more open shots. We just knew we had to play harder and with more intensity."
After a tight first quarter that saw five lead changes and a tie, Mt. Zion opened the second period on a 10-3 run, sparked by three baskets from Holder, who scored 12 points in the quarter and 14 in the first half.
The run gave the Bulldogs (14-5, 9-2 in 4-AAAA) a 20-14 lead, and they never fell behind after that. . Union Grove pulled within 22-20 on a pair of 3-pointers by Sean Williams, but Holder answered with two threes of his own as Mt. Zion scored the last seven points of the half.
The visiting Wolverines (12-9, 5-6) played a clean first quarter but committed seven second-quarter turnovers, and Mt. Zion converted them into nine points.
"They're so long and athletic, if you don't step to the pass or give them a ball fake, they're going to hurt you," said Union Grove coach Russ Atkins.
The Bulldog lead was 10, 36-26, before Holder's third 3-pointer of the game started an 11-2 run that essentially put the game away.
Mt.Zion pushed the lead to 20 on Juan Patterson's basket in the opening minute of the fourth, and the Bulldogs led by as many as 26 down the stretch.
Williams led Union Grove with 18 points and Jay Shorts had 10.

not what I expected I was very disappointed in this product. I ordered a few other items for the reception and was very pleased with them so I had high expectations for the diamond shaped confetti. I ordered the clear and they look nothing like the picture shown. The color is more of a foggy, milky white color. Maybe the other colors look better, but I would not recommend ordering the clear to anyone. January 24, 2014

This past weekend, WPS kicked off its third season as the Boston Breakers beat the Atlanta Beat on their home turf 4-1 and the Philadelphia Independence and Sky Blue FC drew to a 2-2 tie.
Boston Breaker's Jordan Angeli, Keelin Winters, Kelley O'Hara, and Kasey Moore netted one goal each to secure the win for the Breakers on Saturday. Although the Beat tallied more shots on goal, their only score came from a Carli Llloyd pentalty kick in the 78th minute of the game.
On Sunday, PUMA standouts Tasha Kai and Amy Rodriguez notched their first points of the season as the Philadelphia Independence battled Sky Blue to a 2-2 draw. Sky Blue opened the game with first half goals from Laura Kalmari and Casey Noguiera, but the Independence capitalized twice in the second half to tie the game.
After the game, PUMA athlete Tasha Kai commented on what it was like to play to come back to play against Sky Blue: "It was awesome…I was afraid I would get boo'd here but they welcomed me here with open arms, a lot of emotions. I was nervous, excited, I had butterflies all day. We struggled the first half but as strong a team as we are, we came back the second half and put two away. We fought to the last minute; we needed to start off the game like we finished it. I think we have a lot to work when we get back before next weekend, but we'll take a point. Go back home and fix what we need to fix. We're good enough to put in two. I'll take the blame, I need to be more dangerous in the box and not be afraid to shoot. Coach told me it's alright if I miss 50 as long as I keep shooting. For me, the more I shoot the more, hopefully, goes in. I need to mentally be stronger and take more responsibility in the box."
Make sure to check back for more WPS action this coming weekend as the Independence take on magicJack and the Beat challenge Sky Blue on Saturday, while the Breakers host their home opener against Western New York on Sunday night.
