Georgia Tech's 2012 recruiting class has an international flavor.
Adam Gotsis, a 6-foot-5, 295-pound defensive tackle from Australia, committed to Georgia Tech on Saturday night, one of his coaches wrote in an email to the AJC.
He is Georgia Tech's second commitment within the last three days, joining DB Lynn Griffin of Jacksonville. On Friday, Georgia Tech also withdrew the scholarship offer to the first commitment of this year's class, DE-LB Junior Gnondonke, because his coach was told his test score was not high enough.
Georgia Tech now has 16 commitments, and may sign as many as 19-20 on National Signing Day (Feb. 1). The top prospect in Georgia Tech's class may be Central Gwinnett DE Francis Kallon, who moved from England last year.
Here's more info on Gotsis: He was recommended to Georgia Tech by Paul Manera, who played for Paul Johnson and Yellow Jackets assistant Mike Sewak when they were both assistants at Hawaii. Here's a scouting report on the mysterious Gotsis from Manera:
"I have watched Adam play and he is very competitive. He is very determined and coachable. He plays with a lot of heart, which is something you cannot measure in a weight room. He has the raw tools to excel and just needs to be in an environment where he can compete on a daily basis. He is also very coachable and I believe that he will be able to master the skills needed to play his position …
"Adam is a good athlete. He has good flexibility and coordination for football. Adam has also played basketball and Australian rules football, so through this process this has enabled him to do a variety of movement patterns. Adam has good size, he's nearly 6-5 and weighs 295 pounds, and he has a big frame to carry it as he does not look 295. Adam has a good nervous system and he will adapt very well to the strength and conditioning program at Georgia Tech."

It's clear Tech oversigned and dropped the Junior kid for the new flavor of the week from Australia.
10 of 11 is easily going to become 20 of 21 it even 40 of 41 the way things are going.

All this talent in Atlanta and Paul Johnson is recruiting other continents? WTH? Paul Johnson has never even walked in our schools. He has no connection to high school coaches in Atlanta. He's invisible.
January 22nd, 2012
2:30 am
Welcome to the Flats and oddly enough America. Will be interesting to follow this kid. Hope that side bar about Kallon is correct because I hear ND is pushing hard and Kallon is wavering.
WnE that was actually funny and I am still waiting for a response on the blog about Junior.
Bug Zapper you hit the nail on the head GT can take 20 and had to dump one of it's best recruits to make room for the 4 secret ones. Your theory would hold more water if CPJ cut a Junior that has no playing time instead of a potentioly good LB.
January 22nd, 2012
2:33 am
I still want to see the scale while the kid is standing on it that says 295.
January 22nd, 2012
3:45 am
Gotsis has the potential to help GT. Otherwise CPJ would not have signed him. No coach would sign a player he did not think would contribute.
Hopefully Bug Zapper has finished with his nonsense and went to bed.
January 22nd, 2012

Leave Bug Zapper alone. His mom made him turn the computer off and brush his tooth before bedtime.

If this is true, I'm embarrassed and so should the folks at Tech be embarrassed about notifying this kid, they should be ashamed. The admissions department needs to look into making their process more efficient. Maybe they need a couple of IE's to review their process.
I would think CPJ would know if a kids scores and grades are good enough if he will make it or be borderline and tell him. But maybe with all of the privacy laws he can't see the scores.

Sounds like the kid from Lanier County may have slacked off during his senior year. His high school coach is trying to protect him.
January 22nd, 2012
7:37 am
Sometimes clerks and administrators in college admissions and financial aid departments are incompetent. I rationalize this by saying it's training the student for future dealings with human resources departments at work.

First, welcome to Adam, and his family, to GA Tech! It's unfortunate that much of your first exposure to American Collegiate Football will be/has now been with juveniles who would prefer to drop their drawers at one another rather than act like civilized people and just enjoy the sport like adults.
Next, regarding the situation with Junior. He, and his high school coach, knew he wasn't going to qualify academically to GA Tech back in November, but failed to notify the Jacket coaches until recently. Paul Johnson did not pull his scholarship until he was told he wouldn't qualify, meaning he froze that one from being used for anyone else during the course of the recruiting season since Junior committed almost a year ago.
By not telling the GA Tech coaches until a couple of weeks before signing day meant that most of their previous top secondary targets had already committed elsewhere, Junior actually had a better chance at getting a great second choice than GA Tech has at getting his replacement so close to signing day.
So if there's anyone who caught the short end of the stick in this affair, it was GA Tech, not the recruit. And still, rather than pout, GA Tech's coaching staff still tried to help Junior quickly find an alternative.
January 22nd, 2012

You have no clue….we can sign as many as 21…we have plenty of room for Junior and love him as a prospect and a person.
It is just a sad deal that he committed as a junior in high school…before he took the SAT. No one expected trouble because his GPA is a 3.4. However, after multiple attempts he cannot crack it. It does not mean he is not smart…there is just an SAT taking issue there.
He does meet the NCAA minimum….but GT's standards are much higher. Our team can take three exceptions per year….but even the exception minimum is higher than the NCAA minimum.
This is a sad situation and something that will certainly repeat every year as the offer/commit process happens earlier and earlier every year. It happened last year to Darius Caldwell of Mays High School.
This was not a situation that had anything to do with making room. We passed on recruiting some other good OLB prospects that are committed to other ACC/SEC schools because Junior had the spot. We never thought he would not make it.
January 22nd, 2012
7:48 am
Junior's mid term grades for his senior year were not up to standard (they just came out this month) thats what did him in
January 22nd, 2012
8:13 am
Jacket Man, you are 100% correct on that point. ALREADY, because of the homer staff of the AJC, Tech, and Johnson in particular, is being made to look like the bad guy. The FACT is that Junior did not make the grade, and as soon as those test results were MADE AVAILABLE to Johnson, he had no choice but to drop him. I'm definitely sorry that it happened, since Junior apparently really wanted to come to Tech, but it's HIS fault, not Tech's, and certainly not Johnson's.
January 22nd, 2012
8:14 am
"The admissions department needs to look into making their process more efficient."
Actually admissions gave the kid an 8 month notice that he would not be admitted.
Johnson could have signed the kid, and then told him in August that he would not be admitted. That is what UGA has done repeatedly over the years. Then they scramble and get the kid into a junior college for a year or two.
The problem is the high school coach thinking that NCAA minimum scores gets one into GT. Every person that can read knows getting into GT is tougher than getting into most colleges.

Kudo's to Jacket Man on a savvy post – guess the trolls are hungover still. CPJ's only error was probably in thinking that a borderline academic prospect could qualify with a year to try. But it's better for Junior to make the switch now and not after he fails out.
Gotsis sounds like he has the size and speed to be a potential game changer – and the Aussies are tough – great combination and worth the risk.

As far as Junior G.'s pulling back of offer from GT, this was posted somewhere else and thought I'd share:
No one surprised anyone unless they (the high school coaches) thought we would take him whether he met the requirement or not. Everyone knew what target needed to be reached…..just never thought he may not be it.
let me just say it….he knew he had to improve his test score. EVERYONE thought it would be no problem (us, him, his school, his teachers, his coaches, etc.) as he has good grades. However…it could not clear the hump. There is definitely a test taking problem to deal with.
If you want to lay blame…but it on the Lanier County School System for having someone with a 3.4 GPA but struggles mightily with the SAT.
Once again…and let me emphasize this…he committed early…very early. We have tons of kids with 2013 offers that we would take commitments from now and they do not have a qualifying test score yet. However, we stick with the kid as long as he is doing everything he can to get it…especially when there is no reason to believe he cannot.

Agree GT fan.
Don't you think it's interesting that the trolls who like to post here are adamant that a) CPJ can't recruit against the mighty dogs/SEC and b) We use academics as a crutch/excuse. I wonder what the response will be now that UGA is looking at a GT recruit who didn't make the cut academically
January 22nd, 2012

Why are all of these Georgie DWAG mutts acting all high & mighty about the kid losing his scholarship because of his grades=scores? Do they think this has never happened at their beloved U of Georgie? I can assure them that at some point in time, it most certainly has. I myself know of a kid back in 1968 (this would have been his freshman year), that encountered the same deal with the beloved V Dooley and U of Georgie. He was one heck of a full back/defensive tackle in high school. He was not stupid, just a bad test taker. He still lives in Marietta, worked for the fire department for 25 years, bought a few rental houses and has been retired for at least 10 years living a good life. I relate the personal info to illustrate that he has enough smarts to have been a financial success in spite of not having the SAT score to gain admittance to the college of his choice. My younger brother is still good friends with him and I see him from time to time. So, get off your high horses trolls!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO JACKETS THWG
January 22nd, 2012
10:06 am
I'm hoping somehow things still work out for Junior G to be a Jacket. He too is an international student now living in Lanier County. A commitment is based on a lot a factors including being eligible to be admitted into a school. If he committed in early 2011 as Tech's first commitment one would think the folks on the Tech academic hill and the Tech coaches would have given Junior the green light. While some kids take the SAT early, maybe he didn't take it until later and then the score was not projected to be high enough. I do not know the facts, but I am still hoping Junior can be admitted to Tech later if he can get a higher score and decides not to enroll in another college. Things happen sometimes, but this kid's story is a good one and he seems, based strictly on what I have previously read in the media, like a good find for Tech and a good kid. Best wishes to him!

10:18 am
And as for Adam Gostis from down under, this is a guy who wants to come to GT. He is apparently big & strong enough (and will get bigger & stronger) and based on comments from his "mates", is mean enough & relentless enough to be a good defensive tackle. This is a guy we need, & defensive tackle is his position of choice. And his Mom approves of GT and Atlanta. This is the type GT needs and wants because it seems we have had a problem recruiting this type of player for the 3-4 defense. So, bring him on. GT and other schools will take a good player that fits their needs wherever they find one, just like the NFL. So, you trolls can your snide remarks and get a life.
January 22nd, 2012
10:27 am
1 4 GT – It's Gotsis by the way – agree with you he could have a real impact. Like to see him play defensive end in lieu of nose tackle. With his size and speed, few O lineman could keep up with him. Also people tend to forget about pat gamble – he was the #31 DT in the country per rivals – and we still have a shot at Dalvin T.
January 22nd, 2012
10:37 am
rivals just stated we got out 17th commit – believe it may be a kicker? Anybody know who?
January 22nd, 2012

Sad what Jopa endured in his final days. I believe he was basically a decent man and while he didn't handle the abuse properly, he is hardly the only person of his generation to find the subject to unpleasant to deal with – at least he did turn it over to authorities.
Anyway don't know what to make of the scholarship for Rodwell. CPJ had stated he wasn't going to give one to a kicker – although with his size he could play elsewhere possibly. It may not bode well on signing many others – regardless what the trolls say about the Junior G issue.
January 22nd, 2012
12:07 pm
I'd say JoPa died from a broken heart.
January 22nd, 2012
12:23 pm
HT, I think you are right about JoPa. PSU should not have FIRED him; that is a terrible word and a terrible fate. They should have simply relieved him of his duties with the kind of class that he showed while he was coaching. Sure, he apparently screwed up in the way he handled the scandal, but he didn't condone or endorse what his assistant did; he just didn't know how to handle. I doubt that many coaches would have done much different. I was never particularly a fan of JoPa, but I respected him and he deserved better.
January 22nd, 2012
12:24 pm
One thing I really admire in the way CPJ has handled the deal with Junior G is that he didn't give him a letter PROMISING him to take him next year after he had "improved." UNLIKE that jerk Saban, CPJ has actually steered him to another college where he can get in now and possibly contribute next year.
January 22nd, 2012
12:29 pm
In a couple of years Gotsis may be stud because I think he's dying to be good at american football and will be very receptive to coaching.I'm not looking forward to seeing him chase UGA quarterbacks.

WnE please explain the upside to CPJ pulling this offer and I swear I will never respond negatively to you again. What does CPJ gain by pulling this offer? What great recruit out there is CPJ making room for? Why would CPJ burn himself with this school and surrounding schools for that matter? Scholarships were not really an issue with Machen leaving for microsoft, Smith removed, and Hill declaring. Junior was one of our best recruits and I am sure he is going to come out of this okay as many schools have already shown interest. Just please explain to me how this move helps GT and/or CPJ in any way without some stupid kung fu panda fish fry remark. Help me understand how this works out in your mind. Dieing to read your response.
Good question. What say you, WnE?

GT plays the games that other schools do. Case in point 6′ 4″ 280 lbs OL Akil Hawkins of Fayette HS who was being recruited by GT – check out the article on Jacketonline web. He and Sandy Creek OL Will Adams(GT Commit) the best OL in Fayette. GT offers Hawkins a Preffered Walkon opportunity rather than a scholarship in the hopes (Hope & minority grants) that could land bigger name recruit which turns out to be Adam O.
As fate would have it, Hawkins turns down several D-1 offers and accepts a scholarship from Grambling State to play in a Pro set for Doug Williams(1st round pick QB & Super Bowl MVP). Moreover, Will adams

I guess I would mind so much if he didn't charade as a GT alum/fan. Although I have seen several posts where he/she mistakenly referred to GT fans in the 3rd party … as in"You GT fans…" . Definite troll
January 22nd, 2012
2:01 pm
I see no shame in someone being a GT fan without being a student or graduate. But it is shameful to say you are something when you clearly are not. He never answered my question about what handle he uses on GTSportsTalk, which he usually references and calls BBuzzoff or PPutzoff.

Servings: 8-10 servings
Prep Time: 10 min
Difficulty: Easy
6 cup small broccoli florets
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup raisins
10 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
3 green onions, sliced
2/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 (3.75-ounce) package honey roasted sliced almonds
In a medium bowl, combine first 5 ingredients.
In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, honey, and lemon juice. Pour over broccoli mixture, tossing gently to coat. Stir in almonds just before serving.
This is a wonderful salad. I have made many varieties of broccoli salad, and this is one of the best. I didn't have raisins or craisins this time, but did have dried apricots. Took my kitchen shears and cut them up. It was great that way, too. I also use the bagged Oscar Meyer Real Bacon Pieces when I'm in a hurry, and that works well - approx. 3/4 to 1 full bag. Would sure like to see a section with diabetic recipes!!!!!!

We leave our dirty fingerprints all over Sony's new portable.
The Pitch: After eight years of PSPing, the PS Vita is Sony's rebuttal to Apple and Nintendo's dominance in the mobile gaming market. The PS Vita jams more gaming and entertainment capabilities into a handheld than we've seen before, including a rear multi-touch panel, and the unicorn portable gamers have been chasing since Gameboy debuted - dual analog sticks.
What It Really Is: The most impressive dedicated, portable gaming device yet. The Vita has a solid, hefty build, a scorching 2GHz quad-core processor that leaves the iPhone 4S in the dust, and a beautiful, vibrant 5" OLED touchscreen that begs for the touch of your controller-callused digits.
Touch vs Analog
Vita's touchscreens are capacitive and react to your fingering exceptionally well. (Stop giggling.) Sony's OS is a definite compliment to the pumped up Vita hardware, feeling smooth and intuitive - even when multitasking - and lets you peel away tabs to close games and running apps. At its core, though, PSVita is a device aimed at hardcore gamers and its shoulder triggers and analog sticks are a testament to that. The miniaturized sticks are undeniably small but serve the purpose well, giving the Vita a precision that's not found on the 3DS or an iDevice. Until you glue control sticks to your iPad, this is the best way to play.
Launch Lineup
When the iPhone launched, there was no App Store. When the 3DS launched, there was no Mariokart 7. Years of conditioning have taught gamers that buying a new console, portable or otherwise, isn't just about the hardware but leaving enough cash in your pocket to pick up a few killer launch titles. Vita's not just launching with tried-and-true, recognizable titles in every genre that look and feel like their console counterparts, but each one provides a great example of the portable's capabilities. Uncharted shows off the systems pretty graphics and battery life, FIFA boasts online play and lovely touch screen percision controls, and even Touch My Katamari (stop giggling) does an admirable job of justifying the inclusion of the back touchscreen and shows how it can make gameplay better.
Bottom Line
PS Vita is filling a niche for console gamers who still require power and depth when they're on the go. It's hard to look at the Vita as the first of its kind. Rather, this is the logical end point for portables that incorporates everything great that's come before - front and rear facing cameras, wifi, cellular, touchscreens, GPS, analog sticks, motion controls - and ditches the worst (we're looking at you, UMD's) then packs it all into one, beautiful, beastly package.
Who's It For: Subway riders and those relegated to the backseat during road trips will find the Vita a useful companion. It also doubles as a great couch escape when you can't get to your PS3 because your girl is blasting a Real Housewives of Cake Wars in Downton Marathon.
Maxim.com Ready-Made Press Blurb: "The PS Vita is powerful and sexy. It's the Female Olympic volleyball player of hand helds." – Maxim.com
Fun Fact: Vita's Japanese launch in late 2011 was plagued with problems, all which seem to be solved in time for its North American launch. [fingers crossed]
Special Features/Extras/Cheats/Packaging…The Vita comes in three different flavors, Wifi-only, Wifi/3G (as long as you're cool kicking another couple bucks to your AT&T overlords) and a First Edition Bundle that packs the 3G version with a case and the Little Deviants game...though we're not sure why.

A Prominent Boost for Sirius XM
Josef Ray is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Sirius XMRadio (NASDAQ: SIRI), a broadcasting company based in New York City, is the primary source of satellite radio services in the United States. The company airs its comedy, entertainment, news, traffic, sports, and weather programs by means of a subscription fee, which offers music and channel access over the worldwide web and mobile devices. The subscription is offered on a yearly, semi-annual, quarterly, and monthly basis, and comes at a lower rate for prepaid, continuing plans, and multiple subscriptions.
Notable Expansion of Network Availability
On Tuesday Jan. 8, Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE: TM) announced that it will remarkably improve and intensify the accessibility of the satellite radio company across its complete array. Toyota users will be capable of benefiting from the regular services of Sirius XMRadio, even if one's ride is not yet equipped with the Japanese global automaker's Entune system.
What is interesting about this alliance is that Sirius will be made available as a typical element in the whole line-up of Toyota vehicles. They will come with a satellite radio and a three-month Sirius XMRadio subscription, which will provide a Toyota rider with the opportunity to access Sirius' collection of channels that include music, live events, sports, news, and entertainment, amongst many others.
Sirius Getting Serious with the Competition
On Jan. 9, Clearwire Corporation (NASDAQ: CLWR) opened at $3.14, which was $0.20, or 7.19%, higher than the previous trading session. So far, the mobile and wireless broadband communication services provider has grown 119.55% within the previous quarter.
The company's average low on a daily basis is $3.12 and the peak is $3.15. Furthermore, the trading volume of 84 million is higher than the regular amount of 29 million shares. A remarkable volume of call and put agreements were achieved throughout the previous trading session among the investors, suppliers, and buyers of Clearwire's shares. In fact, a sum of 54,249 calls and 101,490 bonds were exchanged, lifting a 1.87 put/call relation.
Equally, Sirius XMRadio recently announced that it would surpass its monetary guidance for the previous year, which saw the company accomplish a remarkable high of adding 2 million net subscribers. This brings in the overall currently active subscription base to approximately 24 million. For 2013, the financial guidance of the company includes a subscriber base of more than 25 million clients, proceeds in excess of $3.7 billion, the addition of more or less 1.4 million net subscribers, and an increase of roughly 1.6 million self-pay net users.
The Partnership May Prove to Be Fruitful
The recent improvement of Sirius is in fact the biggest update concerning the company in the recent years. It is expected that when the broadcasting company sets its present and future goals in motion, the revenue will definitely leap. In addition, the partnership with Toyota, one of the world's leading providers of automotive vehicles, will undeniably heighten the earnings in the approaching quarters for both companies. In fact, Sirius XM's Executive Vice President and General Manager Steve Cook asserted that Toyota's decision to make Sirius XM Radio available on its latest multimedia system shows both companies' dedication to provide a kind of technology that will make being a Toyota rider more pleasing and entertainment-filled.

Monday morning's shooting at Sparks Middle School has many wondering what if this were to happen at their school.
Joey Walker runs "Leading Edge Threat Mitigation." He said shootings like the one that happened at Sparks Middle School Monday morning can't be prevented, but he teaches people how to be prepared if and when it does happen.
A tragedy like this from occurring, but what you can do is decrease the number of people from getting impacted by that tragedy.
Walker was a Reno Police Officer for 25 years before retiring in 2003. Now, he owns "Leading Edge Threat Mitigation" which uses some tactics that allow police officers to survive when dealing with a situation.
He wants to emphasize to always find a way to run and hide from a situation. But if you are confronted by a shooter face-to-face, he says to try to talk to him or her with a lower tone. And if you know the person, use their name and keep your body language calm.
If you can, get behind a covered area to talk to the shooter.
Walker also showed me a way to take a firearm away from a shooter.
"Your left hand is going to sweep across and move the weapon. Fingers down, just like that. Right hand comes underneath right about here, forcing this back toward me and pulling this back toward your shoulder, just like that. Now, you always want to point it in this direction this way because you don't know this individual's weapon."

Florida Getaways of the Day
Image 85 of 157
Jacksonville Baldwin Trail: Silence in the city( August 7, 2014 )
The 14.5-mile Jacksonville-Baldwin Trail offers a sense of seclusion you might not expect from a trail that starts about 5 miles from downtown Jacksonville.
Built along a former railroad corridor, this bicycling and hiking trail traverses a diversity of natural habitats including pine flatwoods, wetlands, and hardwood uplands. These areas attract a variety of wildlife such as songbirds, hawks, wild turkey, and white-tailed deer.
The dense canopy that covers most of the trail provides shade on a sunny day and, in certain locations, even gives the illusion of traveling in a tunnel.
The trail also crosses McGirts Creek near Camp Milton, a site rich in Civil War history. Despite its secluded feel, the trail is readily accessible from Jacksonville via Interstate 10 and Interstate 295.
INFO: From Jacksonville, take Interstate 10 west to Exit 50 (new Exit 343) for US 301. Head north on US 301 (toward Baldwin), continuing through Baldwin to the trailhead.
On the Web, go to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's web site for more information:
You can also download a map of the trail (with entry points)

A San Francisco Classic for 40 Years
The Royal Exchange is a landmark Financial District eating and drinking institution. Whether it be for lunch, solo dining, afternoon snacks or an after-work gathering or a private event, now's the time to grab your friends and tell them to "Meet Me at the Royal.''
The Royal Exchange pours 32 ice cold beers from 72 beer taps—more than anyone else in the Financial District! And we're proud of our award-winning food, too.
"For a downtown SF afternoon drinking and eating establishment, The Royal Exchange is in a class by itself.If you like it packed, the best time to go is 6-ish on Thursdays and Friday's. All the mid-twenty to late-thirties crowd—who can't wait to get a drink—shoot over after an afternoon at the office. Killer burgers, chicken sandwiches, daily specials and epic chili keep everyone happy until it is time to go home at 10 PM. Tons of beers on tap and a staff that seems to rarely turnover provide the patron's with awesome service. Roomy booth's line the window's on the inside and a bunch of round tables for group get-together's."

There are a series of water parks in South Mississippi that many of our local residents may not be familiar with. The Pat Harrison Waterway system stretches from Meridian all the way down to Wiggins. All together there are nine water parks in the system.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Pat Harrison Waterway System. The closest water park to us is Flint Creek in Stone County. It you have never taken the time to visit Flint Creek, then you should do it this fall.
The six hundred acre lake provides a backdrop for an ideal way to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and enjoy some time in the outdoors. There are numerous picnic tables available to the public as well as a number of cabins and camp sites that can be rented. Some of the best fishing in South Mississippi can be found at Flint Creek.
When the waterway system was designed 50 years ago it was said it would be a great recreational facility as well as provide flood control and emergency drinking water. That vision is now a reality.
The water parks offer first class recreation not only to all of us in Mississippi, but also, visitors from other states.
That's our opinion, we would like to hear yours. Email your thoughts to email@example.com, or post your comments below.

Rochdale 2 Albion 2.
GUS Poyet is raising the bar at Albion like never before.
You might have expected a decent enough away point on the back of eight straight wins in a memorable March to be greeted with a philosophical shrug of the shoulders and a hint of a smile.
Not a bit of it. Albion's meticulous manager was irritated by the manner in which his side let go of another victory on their way to sealing promotion to the Championship.
That will happen, of course, although we may have to wait now until the next away game at Walsall on Saturday week, if not later.
Successive home victories against Sheffield Wednesday and Dagenham and Redbridge in the next eight days, together with helpful results elsewhere involving Huddersfield and Southampton, are required for a top two spot to be guaranteed sooner than that.
Poyet is far too professional to take anything for granted until the task is completed but in some respects he is already looking ahead to next season.
And he knows performances like this a year on will produce not a point but the now familiar outcome for the UK entry in the Eurovision song contest.
A deeper explanation is necessary, since Albion were brighter and more fluent in an attacking sense than in most, if not all, of those hard-earned victories last month.
The flaws which annoyed their leader were the goals which were missed and the goals which were leaked.
They only managed to score once in open play from a plethora of chances. Even then they needed a twist as improbable as Colonel Gadaffi surrendering – a Gary Dicker header.
At the other end of the pitch they managed to concede twice without their normally rock-solid defence being breached in open play.
Championship strikers will not be as charitable in both respects. They will gobble up a higher percentage of openings and make the most of any defensive frailties.
Once Dicker nodded Albion ahead for the first time in the match, early in the second half, Poyet expected only one outcome.
"It was a matter of time and I thought we were going to score two or three more," he said. "But we didn't respect some internal rules we've got and gave them the chance to come back.
"Going forward we were decent. I'm a little bit disappointed by how we dealt with a few defensive situations."
Poyet preferred not to elaborate on the 'internal rules' which were broken but it is fair to assume they included unnecessary infringements in dangerous positions.
Dicker said: "We have been quite good at that, staying on our feet and if we are going to foul it has usually been higher up the pitch, so he (Poyet) was a bit disappointed at that and we spoke about it at half-time.
"We were really disappointed about the second goal we gave away but we take the credit and the flak as a team, we are not going to pinpoint anyone. We can learn a lot from this game."
Ditto Poyet. It is easy to forget he is still in his first full season as a manager. Each and every match is, for him, an education.
"You need to learn to learn from every situation," he said. "I don't think the players realise how much I learn about every individual every minute."
Albion's superiority in the first half of the first half should have been rewarded by an early goal from Chris Wood but he dragged his shot wastefully wide after Tommy Elphick put him clean through.
Instead they fell behind against the run of play. Robbie Williams has a deadly left-foot and his curling free-kick forced Casper Ankergren into a flying save. The Dane was more alert than his colleagues, on-loan Hull winger Will Atkinson reacting quickest to slot the rebound. Wood, to his credit, was not unnerved by initial profligacy when Craig Dawson, Rochdale's West Brom-bound centre-half, impeded Glenn Murray from Dicker's pass.
Albion's very own Brommie shrugged aside the previous collective penalty woes with a confident conversion from the spot.
They could have been behind again by the break. Ankergren made a breathtaking deflection onto the upright from a swivelling volley by the impressive Chris O'Grady but the keeper was rooted to the spot and helpless when Williams was inches wide with another free-kick.
Dicker's collector's item was well-constructed and well-executed. The back-to-form Elliott Bennett combined with Inigo Calderon before crossing for the Irish midfielder, ghosting into the box, to score with a header firm enough that Owain Fon Williams could not quite keep it out.
That ought to have been that but O'Grady, a robust and hard-working handful throughout for Gordon Greer and Tommy Elphick, thought otherwise.
He had his back to goal and Elphick behind him when Radostin Kishishev tried to win the ball. Instead he got enough of the man for Gary Jones to register his 19th goal of the campaign from the resulting penalty.
Any neutral would have regarded it as a cracking contest in which Rochdale, surprise packages after promotion last season and still with an outside chance of a play-off place, played a full part.
Poyet is no neutral though. While Albion have been fortunate to take maximum points this season from neighbouring Oldham, he will feel they have dropped four against Rochdale following the 2-2 draw at Withdean earlier in the season, best remembered for Greer's debut red card and a rare error late on by Ankergren.
Dicker said: "It's always nice to score but that is only good when you win games. We have got seven games left now and it's in our hands.
"We are the only ones who can slip up. I don't think anyone in the dressing room is relaxing and thinking we are there. The gaffer, Tano and the rest of the staff won't let us."
You bet they won't, particularly Poyet.

Press release submitted by River Action
Adopt-a-Path is growing to meet the demands of an expanding trail network in the Quad Cities. This past year, two miles of the Mississippi River Trail was completed through downtown Bettendorf to Riverdale and in Davenport, a new bridge was constructed, connecting Credit Island to South Concord Street.
River Action's Adopt-a-Path program is working to keep the Quad Cities' recreational trails clean. The volunteer program is an informal agreement whereby citizens, organizations, local businesses and student groups help by picking up trails throughout the year. Volunteers or "Trailkeepers" adopt ½ mile sections of the Mississippi River Trail (IA and IL) and Duck Creek Recreational Trail. (IA)
Nearly twenty of the fifty miles have been adopted. Volunteers are needed and can visit River action's website for more details at www.riveraction.org
or contact Dan at 563.322.2969 or firstname.lastname@example.com
Adopt-a-Path Volunteer Duties
1. Pick up the path of small items of litter.
2. The scope is just the perimeter of the path. It's somewhat subjective- some areas will be wider than others. You don't have to go far afield, just the immediate path.
4. If you find large items, don't feel you have to pick them up. Give River Action a call, or your communities' parks or public works departments.
5. Use your own garbage bags, or come down to the River Action's office and pick up a supply. We also have gloves.
6. Dispose of your collected litter either in a city trash receptacle or at yours at home. If you have a large number of bags (or extremely heavy ones), give us a call and tell us where you left them. Try to leave them at a location accessible by motorized vehicles.
7. Pick up your section as often as you can. Again, this is subjective. You don't have to do it weekly or even monthly. Perhaps a guideline would be: at least every two months during the spring to fall season – in other words, four or five times a year.
8. Look for your name on the River Action website.

Ship Vandenberg prepped to become reef
USA Today
Posted : Wednesday Oct 24, 2007 6:36:31 EDT
NORFOLK , Va. A decommissioned Air Force ship is being prepared at a Virginia shipyard to become a new habitat for marine life and an attraction for recreational divers in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.
A $6 million project to turn the 524-foot-long General Hoyt S. Vandenberg into a reef is scheduled to culminate in the spring of 2008, with the vessel's sinking in 140 feet of water about six miles south of Key West.
Retired in 1983, the Vandenberg floated for 24 years among ships in the U.S. Maritime Administration's James River Naval Reserve Fleet at Fort Eustis, Va.
Project officials say the Vandenberg reef should generate $8 million annually in tourism-related sales after it is sunk and point out environmental benefits, especially alleviating recreational diving pressure on natural coral reefs.
Prior to sinking, workers must rid the vessel of all environmental hazards. That means removing paint, stripping out almost 800,000 feet of wiring loaded with toxic products used in insulation before being banned, and off-loading any remaining waste petroleum products.
More than 50,000 man-hours of work will be necessary, but the result will be a shipwreck that should appeal to divers of all skill levels, project officials said.
Most of the funding for the project is coming from Florida Keys government sources, including the region's tourism council. The Maritime Administration is contributing $1.25 million to the effort.
The addition of the Vandenberg is to anchor the lower end of a dive experience that area dive shop owners are calling the Florida Keys Wreck Trek. At the top, off Key Largo , is the former U.S. Navy Landing Ship Dock Spiegel Grove, another ship that was mothballed at James River .
The Vandenberg began its nautical life in 1943 under a different name, the Gen. Harry S. Taylor, as a troop transport ship.
After participating in World War II, the Hungarian Revolution and the Cold War, it was overhauled to become a missile-tracking vessel in the Atlantic . When christened for that assignment, it became the Vandenberg, named after the former Air Force general and director of the Central Intelligence Group, predecessor to today's Central Intelligence Agency.

Sini Nwaobi ′07
One day, I hope to open up a group of medical clinics all over the world. It's going to take a lot of work, but it's something I've been interested in for a long time.
Traveling and learning about different cultures has always fascinated me. So has medicine. I'm a pre-med biology major as well as a Bonner Scholar, and my main area of service focuses on hospitals and health care. I volunteer as a Spanish interpreter at the Regional Medical Center, and it really keeps me on my toes. One minute I'm in labor and delivery and the next I'm in trauma or cardiology. I love learning about people and helping them understand and cope with illness.
I started planning a medical mission trip to Nigeria the summer after my first year at Rhodes. I spent three months doing research, learning the ins and outs of how to obtain medical supplies and figuring out border and transport regulations. Then, over the summer after my sophomore year, I spent three weeks in the village of Issele-Mkpitime, Nigeria. Along with another student, I brought medicine and equipment, talked to the nurses and doctors and observed how several clinics and hospitals in the area were run. One of the huge problems in the village is typhoid because the main water source is contaminated, so we funded and helped to build a new well which should help the problem considerably. Those three weeks were an incredible, humbling experience.
Last year, I helped put together a new service organization at Rhodes called "On the Global Scene." It focuses on understanding international health issues, increasing advocacy on campus and organizing medical mission trips to impoverished villages all over the world. The group has already established an annual trip to Reynosa, Mexico in conjunction with Rhodes' Tex-Mex Border Ministries, and we have a trip to Ecuador planned for summer 2007.
Rhodes has definitely prepared me for a future in the medical profession. The Biology Department is rigorous and very rewarding, and I've been given the opportunity to confirm my interests in the subjects I find the most fascinating. My professors are passionate, wonderful mentors who inspire me to continue trying to make a difference in the world.
I plan to go for my M.D./Ph.D. in either orthopedics or neuroscience, and I always want to be involved in medical mission trips. When it's time to open my own clinics, I know I'll be prepared.

Developers want to breathe new life into the section of Michigan Avenue from the Chicago River south to Millennium Park, and better connect the lush shopping district to the tourist hotspot.
There is a plan to revitalize a three-block stretch with four new hotels, two apartment towers and retail space. The proposal calls for these new developments to be housed in various buildings between Randolph and Wacker Drive.
Millennium Park, which opened in 2004, is seen as the catalyst for renewed interest in developing this stretch of Michigan Avenue.
The developers told Crain's Chicago Business that they want to bolster that part of Michigan Avenue to tap into is a millions of tourists that come to this part of the city to see the park. The redevelopment would give visitors more options for places to stay, places to spend and things to do the immediate area.
One of the new hotels is expected to be a Hotel Indigo location, which would take the place of a 12-story vacant building, about one block away from Millennium Park.
"I'm here almost every weekend with the kids," one woman told Good Day Chicago. "It would be great. It's a good idea actually."
The Hard Rock Hotel has made its home on Michigan Avenue for almost ten years. Developers said the well-known hotel has been the anchor for the area, but they feel giving visitors more options would be great for the stretch.

GB Airways was a UK airline; prior to its dissolution it was headquartered in "The Beehive," a former terminal building, at London Gatwick Airport in Crawley, West Sussex, England. It operated scheduled services as a British Airways franchise to 30 destinations in Europe and North Africa from Gatwick and as well as Heathrow and Manchester. The company ceased operations on the 30 March, 2008 following its purchase by EasyJet in January 2008.
The airline was established in 1931 as an offshoot of Gibraltarian shipping company MH Bland, in Gibraltar. Gibraltar Airways, as it was then known, started operations later that year between 'the Rock' and Tangier, Morocco, using a Saunders-Roe A21 Windhover flying boat.
During World War II, the airline represented Imperial Airways/BOAC and in 1947 began its relationship with the newly created British European Airways (BEA). BEA began flying between London and Gibraltar, connecting with Gibraltar Airways' flights to Morocco. BEA took a 49% stake in the airline, which began trading as GibAir, and the London Heathrow to Gibraltar service was jointly operated by the two carriers. Although BEA merged with BOAC to form British Airways in 1974, the financial and operational relationship with GibAir continued. Meanwhile, GibAir continued to operate services from Gibraltar, primarily to Morocco, and also began charter flights to Portugal and France.
It was announced on 25 October, 2007 that GB Airways was to be sold to EasyJet. The UK Office of Fair Trading approved the acquisition on 18 January, 2008. The deal was worth £103.5m and was used to expand EasyJet operations at London Gatwick and start operations from Manchester Airport. GB Airways continued to honour its British Airways franchise agreement and continued to operate as GB Airways until 29 March 2008, after which all aircraft were transferred to EasyJet. Slots used by GB Airways at London Heathrow Airport were not included in the sale, these were sold to other airlines for an estimated £100 million.

Twinkies will be back -- eventually
The iconic snack food will still have a place on grocery store shelves. How and when are still unclear, though.
"Somebody's going to make Twinkies -- that's not a concern," an anonymous source close to negotiations surrounding Hostess Brands told The Washington Post. "The question is who and how."
Twinkie the Kid, the creamy sponge cake's longtime mascot, rode off into the sunset in November when Hostess announced it was shutting its doors after failing to resolve a dispute with its unionized workforce. About 18,000 people lost their jobs.
The business is being sliced up. More than a dozen firms have submitted bids for Hostess' bread business. The snack line, which also includes Yodels, Ring Dings and Devil Dogs, will sell as well -- though it isn't clear who might buy it. Little Debbie is not owned by Hostess as an earlier version of this post reported.
The creamy sponge cake has been a staple of the American diet since 1930. It also is an iconic brand, and those don't come on the market that often. Though people may have fond memories of Twinkies, that hasn't translated into sales. According to the Post, Twinkies sales last year were only about $74 million -- small potatoes for Hostess' $1 billion snack business.
Mexico's Grupo Bimbo, the world's largest breadmaker and the parent of Entenmann's, may be a potential Twinkie bidder along with Flowers Foods (FLO), the second-largest U.S. maker of baked goods. A Grupo Bimbo spokesman declined to comment. Flowers Foods agreed earlier this month to acquire Wonder, Nature's Pride and three other Hostess bread brands for $360 million. Among Flowers' other brands are Tastykake, a Philadelphia snack company that the company acquired in 2011. A spokesman for Flowers couldn't immediately be reached.
--Jonathan Berr does not own shares of the listed stocks. Follow him on Twitter @jdberr. Post was corrected at 10:13 AM on January 28 to remove erroneous suggestion that Hostess owns Little Debbie.

The possible road to success would be to actually recreate the original product, sans the chemical blob recipe, and give us something fun AND not full of deadly crap. They don't even taste like Twinkies anymore anyway so why mourn the loss? Enlighten yourselves on the ingredients behind the chemical blob.... http://www.divinecaroline.com/22106/35281-twinkie-ingredients-revealed
For all the union bashers please research how Hostess went under. Company already threatened bankruptcy 3 years ago and told workers that they needed to help and take a 8% pay cut and freeze pensions. The union agreed and all was happy....then upper management got huge raises. Union members were upset of course. Then the company again asked the union members to take another pay cut which the union members said don't think so and went on strike.
If your boss told you bad times and asked you to take a pay cut to help...would you? If you did then you find out that your boss gets a raise after you cut your pay. Then your boss comes back and asks for another pay cut...would you say yes or fight?
Research before people make ignorant union comments. I work for a union and am proud of what they have done.
What the damn hell. Its a freakin twinkie. Cupcakes, hostess, little debbies, zingers, we love all the little sunshine it brings when it puts the **** smile on our face. Pull the fricken politics out of your butts, use your heads and realize most everyone wants one of these now and again someone buy the damn companies and put on the market again make billions of people happy along with probably billions of dollars.

What Do You Want to Know About Cortana? Ask the Guy Who Led the Cortana API Team, Rob ChambersApr 22, 2014 at 1:46 PM
@Ian2 - I agree. I want to see Cortana pushed to Windows 8.x (or 9) and then onto Xbox One. It would also be cool if the team created a UserVoice page for Cortana so folks could request and vote on features.
Why hasn't this been turned into a Windows Store app? Same goes for the Worldwide Telescope?
Inside Windows 8: Jon Berry - Desktop Activity Moderator and Connected StandbyApr 08, 2013 at 4:25 PMIf we wanted to test that our desktop, network-related services and processes work correctly with DAM, is there a laptop available that supports Connected Standby?
We have thousands of unit tests that were created before VS 2012. If we would have had the traits capability we probably would have used it. Instead, we relied upon grouping our tests in namespaces that match the namespace of the API they're testing. What we really need in the Test Explorer is the ability to group by Namespace. Class is nice but too fine grained for us as we typically have dozens of associated test classes within a single test namespace. If we could group by Namespace we could more easily test just the part of our API implementation that has changed (due to bug fix or new feature).
The lack of any specifics on .NET's future was very disappointing. I thought Herb Sutter's "The Future of C++" put this talk to shame.

Doh! Why aren't all the Silverlight 4 embedded players support pinned full-screen. For us multi-monitor users out here, it is very annoying to have the video go out of full screen mode when we try to do something on the other monitor.
The full-screen pinning ROCKS! I also like the more modern, cleaner look of the new UI.
What the cuss? I am playing this on Silverligth **4**. I put the video in full screen on my second monitor then proceed to work on my first montior and the video kicks out of full screen mode upon the first mouse-click on the app I want to work in. I thought Silverlight 4 was supposed to support this scenario? That's what ScottGu said during his DevConnections keynote. If this requires a config change on the content side then please update your silverlight content to support this new functionality in SL4.

Q&A with Colleen Fitzgerald, Mental Health & Psychosocial Program Manager,International Medical Corps Libya
Dr. Adam Levine, Rhode Island Hospital Physician's Experience at the Front-line Field Hospital in Libya
Following the outbreak of conflict in February 2011, International Medical Corps immediately deployed teams in Libya to provide emergency medical services, train local health workers and deliver vital medicines and supplies. As the conflict has now ended, the country is on the path to rebuilding. International Medical Corps has remained in Libya, shifting its programs from emergency services to longer term projects aimed at supporting efforts to eliminate major gaps in health care and restore the necessary infrastructure. To do this, International Medical Corps is working with the Libyan health sector to address the primary health, mental health and rehabilitation needs of a country emerging from war.
During the war in Libya, International Medical Corps delivered a country-wide response, including in eastern Libya, Misurata and Zliten, the Western Mountains, Tripoli, as well as the Egyptian and Tunisian border regions that received large numbers of Libyans and third country nationals fleeing the violence. During the conflict, International Medical Corps teams achieved the following:

Weekend protests in Malaysia at Merdeka Stadium
Malaysia's Prime Minister Najib Razak must face elections no later than June this year.
And as the deadline draws near, the opposition has received rare permission to hold a weekend political rally at the Merdeka Stadium.
Opposition organisers say the gathering this Saturday at the 30,000-seater venue in Kuala Lumpur, will focus on electoral reforms. A rally for clean elections in April last year drew tens of thousands to the streets but degenerated into clashes between demonstrators and police.
