STEVENS POINT, Wis. (WSAU) -- Reymundo Perez was found guilty Friday of reckless homicide and child abuse for the death of his girlfriend's 2-year-old child.
A Portage County jury of six men and six women decided by mid morning that Perez was responsible for the injuries that caused Felix Espinoza-Villa's death in 2011.
Prosecutor Veronica Isherwood says this was a difficult case to prepare for, but was ready to show the jury why Perez had to be held responsible. "I was confident in my case and I was confident in the science that determined the cause of Felix's death, but you never know what's going to happen with twelve jurors."
Isherwood says this trial was very emotional for everyone on both sides of the case. "And even though I've been through it 80 or 90 times, it's just as emotional each time you wait, but the worst time is between when they say there's a verdict and the time you actually hear it."
The jury deliberated Thursday into the evening, and again Friday morning. In the end, Isherwood says justice was done. "The verdict, I'm satisfied. I think it was the right verdict, but this isn't a happy ending because nothing can bring that little two-year-old back."
Defense attorney Gary Schmaus argued that Felix's mother Beatriz was responsible for the death of the child. Isherwood worked closely with the mother, and also attended several of the investigative events including the child's autopsy in Madison. She says the defense's effort to blame the mother was wrong. "That made me furious. She is (also) the victim here. As the mother of the victim, she was who I was fighting for in that courtroom. Justice for Felix and justice for her. She lost her son and she will never get him back. All she has left is 814 days of memories. That's how many days he lived."
A sentencing date for Reymundo Perez will be scheduled in a hearing Monday. He could get up to 60 years in prison for the reckless homicide conviction and another 15 years for the child abuse conviction.

It actually reminded me of "Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman (Raju Becomes a Gentleman)," one of many Bollywood films to assert that rising Indians can conquer the world in their own style…..In one of these movies, a song mocking the anglicized Indian — that in rough translation goes something like this: "I have become a gentleman, and started to strut, look at my suit and boot, like a white man from London"

From British Raj to licence and permit Raj is Nehru's contribution to India.
We might have won political freedom from the Brits but we had lost our economic freedom on the same day he took over as PM. Surrounded by such rabid communists like VK Menon, Mehalonabis etc and carried away by his personal ambitions for fame in the international scene, he did gross injustice to the entrepreneurial capabilities of Indians and that left us poorer than those nations that got independence later than us. The glaring disparities that we see in India owe much to his policies which tried to control every aspect of making a legitimate living.

Saahir's life is an extraordinary story. I read somewhere that a biographical film is being made on his life with Farhan Akhtar in lead. Hope to see it!

Saroja (#1),
Is that in Modi's handwriting? HELP!!! That can't be. That is very similar to my handwriting. Say someone else wrote it & Modiji signed it.

Very hilarious. Cannot get a better description of stupid Bhakti revolution in India.
What a stupid nation we are - we are fooled by babas, bhajans and politicians. Compeletly bereft of any grey matter. Only downright idiot can listen to these bhajans.
Did Obama really say only 'Welcome ' to Modi and not ' Warm welcome ' ? If I was on Modi's place I would have cancelled the whole trip and would have come back immediately with the whole delegation.
" When Nehru becomes irrelevant India would be just another Pakistan!"
" When Nehru becomes irrelevant India would be just another Pakistan!"
If India had a Nehru, Pakistan had a Jinnah. The political visions of Jinnah and Nehru were very similar and together, they were responsible for the vivisection of India since they allowed personal ambition to prevail over the common good.
If India had an Indira Gandhi and her brand of populism and dynastic politics, Pakistan had its Bhuttos.
The difference between India and Pakistan is in the religious demography and not in the political philosophy of the ruling parties.
The difference is in the attitude of the armed forces who have scrupulously stayed away from intervening in political affairs.
The legacy of Nehru:
1. Poverty - his economic policies ensured that the economy developed at the snail paced "Hindu" growth rate of 2 to 3 percent which was woefully inadequate to eradicate poverty.
2. Dynastic politics
3. Kashmir problem, article 370 etc
4. Pampering the PSUs, which are a huge drain on the economy, due to Nehru's distrust of the private sector.
5. Lack of focus on much needed land reforms which could have led to the dismantling of the feudalistic caste hierarchies, the bane of rural India, because most Congressmen hailed from land owning families.
Any impartial reader can juxtapose Nehru's ideas on the economy with that of Rajaji's and it is no-brainer to as to whose ideas were more relevant then when India was emerging from colonial rule and today, in the globalised, technology driven economy.
Modi will deliver all kinds of lovely speeches except he will never condemn his people who do violent acts.He deliberately keeps a blind eye.That is a strategy he prefected in Gujarat. His party BJP RSS and their cohorts will continue their violence and Modi will keep a total silence and project an image that he has nothing to do with it.He may even visit the victims in a hospital but will never condemn or stop the violence.
who knows, may be you did :D
Commi traitors are chinki agents in India. This is what they have been doing from last 50 years. These shameless goons were the biggest supporters of despot Mao in 1962. During rule of congi nicompoops rule they were agents of chinki thugs in the parliament. They should just be put in jail without trial for treason .

A tutorial.What is the difference between the gold standard economy and fiat currency economics?
The gold standard economy consists of 3 entities. Stored gold owned by the nation (or plutocratic banker), the govt and citizens. Gold sets the value for ALL currencies of trading nations. The economy can expand only with additional gold. For example Rome went down the drain when it ran out of gold. More close to current times it also happened when USA dropped the gold standard in 1971. When gold is not the standard each currency floats and trade allows a balance to occur depending on what each currency will buy. Each govt sets the value by fiat. Between govts it is set by bargaining.
The gold standard terminology is set by the balance
Federal tax revenue + debt payments to the pile of gold + debt payments to citizens= govt expense to operate the nation (build infrastructure, educate the people, run the govt, army etc)+ money spent on net import.
Ideally the nation would keep the pile of gold constant or augment it. (The Islamic raiders were motivated to steal the gold and that is part of Indian history.)
The fiat economy has no gold and the balance is
FISCAL DEFICIT –TRADE DEFICIT = PRIVATE SAVINGS – PRIVATE INVESTMENTS in which FISCAL DEFICIT follows the role of gold. It is apt to rename FISCAL DEFICIT by BHAGYALAKSHMI, the goddess of gold and wealth and prosperity. There is one difference. The pile is infinite! You can never run out of BHAGYALAKSHMI. The economy can continue to grow. Fiat money is therefore SUPERIOR to gold money. The proof is not hard to see. India has BHAGYALAKSHMI. Europe has none. This makes Greece, Portugal , Italy, Spain struggle. Eventually only Germany will survive. When nations trade among themselves there is only one winner. Have you heard of the board game monopoly? You can also look at actual data at
@D-124/1. There would have been no India without brahmins. One example Chanakya exhorted all kings to put up a united front to repel Alexander. Withot that Brahnmin there would have been a lot of small kingdoms, mostly islamic. Kautilya was the old economist during the Gupta empire, very prosperous. Vidyaranya was the Brahmin that started the Vijanagar empire by teaching two muslim boys to start the empire.
Don't knock them. They did it for for patriotism and to uphold Dharma. Not money.
Every year so many idiots get honoured and the real heroes always live in the dark. It is time real heroes get their due.
I admire the courage of her conviction. If she is convinced of the injustice as most think so, she is right in rejecting the medal even if she is punished by being barred from participating in the next Olympics.
South Korea has done this before. Shame on them.
Pity Anwaar. He has to find some faults in Modi. He cannot digest the fact Pakistani PM do not get a fraction of the attention Modi gets despite his past. Modi has the support iof 125 crores Indians.
This continuous quarrel made me think of this. Hindus have no passion to convert other religions for the Hindhu Dharma because Hindu Dharma emphasizes the individual and not the collective because if the individual is happy, so will the society. Hindu civilization has no interest in expanding territory and tampering in other peoples' affairs. Hindu Dharma is the most secular of all religions. It allows any type of worship of any god or no god also. This suggests to me that our religion can offer in India, Muslims to come back to Hinduism if they want to come back. This will benefit women stuck in Islam who are basically persecuted with minimal rights. I saw a movie on the sufferings of women who are stuck in jails in Pakistan for trivial offences (against Sharia law) and can't get out even if they are innocent because the courts can't decide to release them. They just rot in jail sometimes with little kids. I also heard that sometimes they are not allowed to marry because of worry over inheritance. I just shudder to think what it would be like to be born a woman in Islam.
If this works, Islam would be a new caste named after Mohammed (perhaps) and the whole quarrel can be put to an end. India and Pakistan can save a huge amount of money and spend it on human welfare. This would benefit Pakistan more because if it loses to Taliban or ISIS , it will be a catastrophe. Pakistan is already a failing state. It will surely be chaos with atomic weapons in IS's hands.
We do not need salvation after death. We need prosperity in this life. You can reserve thought on afterlife to the weekends if you must think of religious things. This is the age of democracy and peoples' well being. Sensible people do not blow themselves up for unprovable reasons.
All over the world people are discriminated on the basis of race, religion and colour. But unlike muslims, others do not get radicalised.
Anwaar, your turn.
Anwaar is upser Modi got such a reception, which Pakistani PM can never ever dream of. And that burns his heart.
"Why this whining here?" Saroja bint Parrot
"Why this whining here?" Saroja bint Parrot
The only people whining here are your friend the CAIR pracharak and you. The rest of us are delighted by the reception that Modi got both from the Indian-American community and the US government.
Before the elections, there were claims from sickos that the "international community" would shun Modi and India because of the Gujarat 2002 riots. Every other day, sicko reporters would ask US spokespersons whether the US had changed its visa denial policy for Modi, and when the US people said there was no change in the policy, sickos would go into orgasms of delight. Now Modi is PM, he visits the US, and everyone from Obama to Kerry and Senator Chuck Schumer shows up to welcome him. We sanghis are very happy, thank you.
The only sad people are these Coalition against Genocide clowns who are now desperately claiming that Modi is responsible for ill-treatment of Sikhs (!), and people like you and the CAIR pracharak who quote from stupid articles that claim the riots "cast a shadow on the visit" (what shadow?) or about how Obama only said "welcome" and not "a warm welcome" or some such nonsense.
DLN, Ghai, Mohan why you guys are debating with Miso? He is on your side. Didn't he say that if you slap don't cry if you get slapped back. Not everybody is a saint..? When Rajdeep pushed, he got pushed back and then he started crying like 'Hamas'.
This is another antimale article with 'feminist victimhood' pasted all over it. The antimale authoress is so full of spew, that one wonder where she gets her words from!
"grizzled patriarchs" - is there a feminit equivalent for this term?
"woman actor " - the latest feminit terminology for term 'actress'?
"misogynists" - are actually not the ones who oppose dressing styles of feminits. These opposers are 'cultural defenders'. Only anti-males cannot see the difference. The worthless Ms. Gopal is making a spectacle of herself by barking up the wrong tree and blaming misogynists.
The media, particularly the 'intellectual' Outlook, seems to get infinite numbers of feminits from the gutter. And no doubt, should spawn a breed of defenders of the male gender.
Fedup Bibi,
>> "And there was little sign that human rights — a particularly sensitive topic for Mr. Modi, who has been accused of being complicit in deadly anti-Muslim riots — was a major item on the agenda." CAIR pracharak.
That is the NYT speaking, not I, you moron!
Akash Verma,
>>>> " Liberal Hindus in India are an endangered species"
>> "I am now convinced that it is Sagarika Ghose who is posting as Anwaar in this forum."
I am convinced it is Goebbels (with a new Fuhrer, Modi) posting as Akash.
When Nehru becomes irrelevant India would be just another Pakistan!
Well said, Ms. Gopal!

To: AAF Members
From: Jeff Perlman, Executive Vice President – Government Affairs
Clark Rector Jr., Senior Vice President – State Government Affairs
Robert Kohlmeyer, Manager – Government Affairs
Re: FCC Embedded Advertising/Product Placement
The Federal Communications Commission has indicated it will conduct a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on embedded advertising disclosure. The commission is considering whether it should require simultaneous disclosure of all product placement instances on television.
The FCC decision is troubling to the advertising industry because it suggests that regulatory action is necessary. In 2005, the Federal Trade Commission considered and rejected a similar proposal, saying there was no evidences that product placement was unfair, deceptive or resulted in consumer harm.
The AAF, along with AAAA and ANA, wrote to the FCC commissioners in December asking that the agency consider embedded advertising under a Notice of Inquiry (NOI). Given the significance, complexity and economic implications of this issue for free media, we believe the commission should conduct a closer examination of the subject to determine if any problems exist before considering possible regulatory solutions.
A copy of the letter the AAF sent to the FCC is available here. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

DMM Organic Hoodies and T Shirts
UKC Gear, Nov 2009
© DMM DMM has just taken delivery of our latest 'Climb Now Work Later' t-shirts and hoodies in a wide variety of modern colours - classic t's for men and fitted ones for women. An important difference is that in an effort to reduce our impact on the environment we are using Soil Association certified organic printed garments. A no-brainer when you look at the damaging effects of conventional cotton growing.
Every input to garment production, from seed to high street, is traceable in a process governed by the Global Organic Textile Standards (GOTS). The Soil Association's criteria for what you are not allowed to use in textile printing is very strict, no aromatic solvents (white spirit), no formaldehyde, no PVC, no phthalates, no apeo's or heavy metals.
All waste has to be carefully monitored. The water effluent is filtered on site and then tested and monitored by the water authority and all materials are recycled where possible. To achieve zero liquid effluent discharge, salt & water recycling plants are used. They recover 92% of the salt and 95% of water (760,000 litres/day) used.
A typical conventional cotton t-shirt uses about 150 grams of acutely toxic pesticides and insecticides; that's the size of a cup of sugar. Then it is likely to be dyed using more harmful chemicals and to prevent it from creasing, finished with formaldehyde. Would you want that next to your skin?

The Story Of Ruby Bridges (edition 1995)
by Robert Coles, George Ford (Illustrator)
Work details
The Story of Ruby Bridges by Robert Coles
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This is an amazing story about a little girl with a forgiving heart. "Please God, try to forgive those people because even if they say those bad things, they don't know what they are doing. So You could forgive them, just like You did those folks a long time ago when they said terrible things about You." For classroom application, I would take a drawing of a child and explain that he goes to a different school and the kids are unkind to him. I'd get the students to suggest what they might say (I.e. his clothes look funny). Each time they say something unkind, rip the drawing or scrunch up the paper. Soon it looks messy. Now we can practice apologizing and smoothing out the wrinkles and taping the rips. The end result is a drawing that looks ok, but is still tattered. It shows the lasting effects of unkindess and how we must be very careful with our words and actions.
Ruby Bridges was the only African American child to attend a New Orleans elementary school after integration laws in 1960. This book tells about her journey of dealing with this important piece in history. I learned a lot from this book and would recommend this book to teaching about segregation.
The Story of Ruby Bridges is a children's book that stresses the religious nature of Ruby and her family's lives. Robert Coles describes how the family went to church every Sunday and how they prayed for Ruby to be a "credit to all the American people" (7). Her mother wanted her to have a close relationship with God and it seems that she did. The twist at the end of the book is that, when Ruby appears to be talking to the belligerent mob, she is actually praying for them. Although Coles does not come out and say it,he suggests that Ruby's calm demeanor is attributable to her faith.The story is told in a clear, simplistic manner, and would be appropriate for early elementary students. I only have one note of criticism for this book, really: When Coles describes Ruby's appearance, he says, "Wearing a clean dress and a bow in her hair and carrying her lunch pail, Ruby walked slowly for the first few blocks" (12).I question why Coles feels the need to explain that Ruby's dress is clean.Does he believe his audience would assume otherwise? Nevertheless, it is a good book. It explains the story of a heroic girl that would certainly resonate with little ones who do not hear of many heroes their own size.
beautifully illustrated non-fiction story of Ruby Bridges. At 6, Ruby was sent to an all-white school in New Orleans to break the color barrier in schools.
A brave, first grade, African American girl enters first grade in an all white school. The town is upset and removes their children from the school. Every day Ruby enters The Franz Elementary School with sheriff protection. Daily Ruby learns alone in the school until finally Anglo children and their families decide that they should return. Ruby has a heart of gold and believes that even the people that are so mean to her deserve to be forgiven by G-d. The story includes an afterward which tells about Ruby's life since her initial struggle with segregation. Enabling readers to see that Ruby continues to assist underserved people. It also includes an address to mail Ruby letters. The book brought me tears as I realized the courage and humanity that a first grader can behold.

At this rate, Justin Bieber will run out of room on his body for more tattoos.
He posted an Instagram photo this week of a new tat -- of the Roman numerals "I IX VII V," or "1 9 7 5" -- on his right shoulder.
Standing behind him in the photo is music producer Jamal Rashid , a.k.a. Mally Mall , who's sporting the same tattoo on his arm. He's quoted in the caption as saying, "Great Minds Think Alike....Same Tatts spiritual meanings."
Justin is leaving us guessing as to what the spiritual meaning behind his latest tattoo is, though Britain's Daily Mail speculates that he got the ink in honor of his mother Pattie Mallette 's birth year, although the Roman numeral for 1975 is MCMLXXV.
Justin already had several tattoos, including one of a trio of roses he showed off on Instagram late last month.

How playable the game is may depend heavily on how customizable the game is, eg regarding its graphics options. I believe your intel HD internal graphics performance will vary depending on how much ram is available (?), and you seem to have a slower processor than what is the minimum. I know performance can vary alot for processor, so I believe the best test, as always, is to download a trial version of the game to truly know what its capable of and whats not. Perhaps someone out there has similar specs, and if you can give out the specific name of the game, they may provide better help.

With a built-in navigation system and a decent range of media playback options, the Kenwood DNX7100 cannot be faulted for its breadth of features, but the system is let down by its counterintuitive media-selection interface.

The Mobile Ad Gold Rush
Ryan is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
There's no doubt that the race for mobile advertising is becoming the next California Gold Rush. Mobile advertising currently represents 1% of the $500 billion advertising industry. And with average forecasts calling for the industry to double domestically by 2015, companies are racing to find the best way to pan for gold.
Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) is currently the leader in mobile ad revenue, holding 18.4% of the market share. Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) also shows promise, with a Q3 increase in ad revenue and operating margins. Even with all their strength, the popular picks in mobile advertising have a few fatal flaws. Google's market share of the mobile advertising network is expected to decrease in the coming years. Facebook and Pandora (NYSE: P) are only focused on their own platforms and won't capitalize on the huge surge in mobile-everything. On the flip side, Millennial Media (NYSE: MM) is moving towards growth with great diversification. The company has helped platforms, apps, and developers to bring over 45 billion ads to mobile users.
Diversification is Key
There's no doubt that Facebook has shown viability in marketing ads through their mobile app. But even with Facebook's popularity, they are panning only one river in the huge gold rush for mobile ad profits. In contrast, Millennial Media shows great diversification in the mobile market. They feature ads on over 7,000 devices, 30,000 apps, and operate with 75 of the top 100 advertisers ranked by Ad Age.
The switch to mobile is not only a domestic phenomenon. Worldwide growth in mobile ad spending will increase over 50% in 2013. Millennial Media is attempting to capitalize on international growth even more by increasing operations in Europe and Asia. They have partnered with a full-service media specialist agency, MediaVest, which will allow for more access to big clients like Kraft, and a surge in diversification.
The Lesser of Two Evils
MM is still seeing negative operating margins. However, MM saw an 88% year over year increase in revenue, without decreasing profit margins. In fact, profit margins have increased from 39.3% to 40.9% YOY. Pandora cannot say the same; the Internet radio giant has seen a 27% decrease in revenue per ad as they've increased ads and even driven users away.
Millennial Media also has $122 million in cash to finance any future growth or pad against their currently unprofitable operations. They expect to become profitable in Q4, barely pushing into the black at $.01 in EPS. Annualized growth for next year is expected to come in at $.05 EPS, but this is anyone's call in an unknown market.
Striking Gold
We've seen a 17% slip in MM's stock price since the follow-on offering in late October. I don't believe the sale of shares is indicative of any problems within the company. Compared to the overall market, the stock has not seen a significant loss. I believe that it offers a good chance to pick up Millennial Media for the long haul, provided consumer spending doesn't fall off with the risk of an economic downturn in 2013.
Millennial media has finally started to strike gold and more people are paying attention. Google and Facebook are key players in mobile advertising, but seem too overvalued given their popularity and lack of exposure, respectively. While the company does have a trek before it can see true profitability, I believe that it's a good buy for the long-haul.

Bianchi remains undefeated
Borderite Scott Bianchi continued to dominate No. 1 singles as Blaine defeated Friday Harbor 4-1 on September 30 at home and were defeated by South Whidbey 4-3 on October 2 at Langley in tennis action.
Bianchi downed Friday Harbors Dylan Gerhardstein 8-0 and SWs Tim Klopfenstein 6-4, 6-1 to remain undefeated in fall 2002 tennis action. Klopfensteins 6-4 loss is as close as anyone has been to beating him.
Bianchi has now defeated Ferndales Chris Bateman 6-0, 6-1; Squalicums Daniel Metz 6-1, 6-1; Friday Harbors Drew Allen 6-0, 6-0 and Gerhardstein 8-0, 8-0; Lyndens John Maberry 6-1, 6-2 and 6-2, 6-3; Bellinghams Brian Beaumont 6-3, 6-2; SWs Kopfenstein 6-2, 6-2 and 6-4, 6-1 and Coupevilles Nathaniel Mouw 6-1, 6-0. Thats a 124-26 point spread, an average game score of about 6-1 and a masters degree in high school tennis. Anyone for State?
C. J. Stauffer won No. 2 singles at Friday Harbor, while the twosomes of Peter Moskovitz/Grant Sanders and Mikey Allan/Craig Rothwell won doubles in the win over Friday Harbor.
Blaine split singles 2-2 with South Whidbey, Bianchi and Stauffer winning No. 1 and 2 singles for the Borderites, Kai Snow and Todd Berry taking No. 3 and 4 singles for the Falcons. Blaine went 1-for-3 in doubles, Jack Freal/
Lucas Werdal edging Devon Perrick/Kenny Johnson for Blaines lone win in pairs.
Blaine hosts Ferndale on October 10 at 3:45 p.m. and South Whidbey on October 14 at 3:30 p.m. and finish the regular season at Coupeville on October 16. .
edged 3-2 by South Whidbey
Blaine lost 3-0 to Lynden Christian on October 5 at LC, was edged 3-2 by South Whidbey on October 3 at Langley and fell 3-0 to Mt. Baker on October 1 at the Big Orange in girls volleyball action.
The Lyncs 15-8, 15-1, 15-4 win saw Lynden C senior outside hitter Avery Bostrom go 22-for-22 serving. Bostrom accumulated four aces as well. LCs Laura VandenHoek, a 6-foot-3 senior middle hitter, got 18 kills and five blocks. Jessica Summers led the Lady Bs with nine.
The Lady Bs took an early lead in the Falcon affair, winning the first game 15-13, but fell behind, losing games two and three 15-7 and 15-11. Coach Muriel Ridnours crew rallied to knot the evenings activity at 2-2, winning the fourth game 15-9 to force the fifth and final game. SW came back to win it (and the match) 15-6. Middle hitter Summers got 14 kills; setter Jessica Freeman, 34 assists, and outside hitter Alisa Burk, 21 digs, for Blaine.
Mt. Bakers 3-0 sweep saw the Lady Mountaineers become more dominant as the evening progressed, winning the opening game 15-11, the second 15-9 and the finale 15-5. Summers, coming off an ankle injury in the Lady Bs September 26 encounter with Meridian, had an evening high nine kills in the non-league Baker bout. Freeman had 17 assists. Five Lady Bs accounted for Blaines six aces. Summers got two. Freeman, Burk, Carly Hubbard and Amanda Stull added one each.
The Lady Bs host Lakewood at 7 p.m. on October 15. .
LC swamps Blaine
With a tide of navy blue and foam white inundating basic black, defending NCC champion Lynden Christian washed over the Borderites 54-0 in North Cascades Conference football at Blaine on October 4.
Play after play presented an image of a moving wall of very many and very large blue and white-clad young men bearing down on a very few black-clad young fellows, isolated from their teammates and in instant danger of being swamped.
This occurred when Blaine was on offense, too many Lyncs getting through to Borderite QB or RB, and when the Double Bs were on defense, too many LC blockers setting up tackle-free ways for convoys of LC ball carriers to score. In all, eight different Lyncs got a TD for LC.
The pattern for Lynden Cs point-producing perfection wasnt in the stats. The Lyncs only outdistanced Blaine 147-45 in rushing and 62-45 in passing yards. It was, perhaps, in field position.
LC recovered a fumble two plays into the game on the Blaine 19. They scored four plays later, QB Mark Holleman going around left end on a 10-yard jaunt. Their second march started on the Blaine 25 courtesy of a Kyle DeBoer interception. Two plays later, DeBoer swept around the Borderite left flank for 19 yards and LCs second TD.
Less than three minutes had elapsed. Lynden C was up 14-0. The pattern of things to come was chiseled in stone. The Lyncs led 27-0 at the half and 47-0 at three-quarters.
The re-building Borderites did have a few moments of distinction, perhaps the most impressive being QB Bryan Galbraith in the grasp of several Lyncs completing a pass to TE Kevin Farmer to take the im out of impossible in Q3.
There was Rapid Rhyan Lopezs catching up to and bringing down LCs fast-footed Kevin Kooy with nothing but night air between Kooy, the end zone and a LC TD in Q2. There was Bob Francis in Q1, harassing and hurrying LCs QB into putting the in in incomplete pass, and Kyle Green stopping Jordan Vanderpol for a two-step gain with a hit of the unkind kind.
Blaine hosts Mt. Baker on October 11 in the Borderites annual homecoming game..
or be blanked for Lady Bs
The Lady Bs were defeated 3-0 by Mt. Baker September 30 at Kendall and defeated Granite Falls 3-0 in the Tigers lair October 3.
Linsey Taylor led Blaine over G-Falls, scoring at 28 minutes of the first half. Taylor disengaged a Lady Tiger from the ball while pushing forward in offensive mode and promptly propelled a bullet under GFs keeper for a goal.
Lady B midfielder Holly Steckler picked up a pass from Ainsely Nix and quickly got Blaines second tally 15 minutes into the second half.
Linsey Taylor got her second goal at 72 minutes. She started by getting a ball, bouncing in carefree abandon in front of the Tiger net, away from a G-Falls defender. Then, finding that her back was to the goal, Taylor spun into action, turning and shooting and scoring a la athleticism.
Blaine GK Shela Robertson got her fifth shutout in the Tiger tilt.
MBs Abby Reed got two goals in the Baker game, breaking a nil-null deadlock halfway through the second half with a header into the Blaine net. The Lady Ms went two-up with a quick transition goal by Tessa Bittner at 65 minutes. With Blaine opening up in an attempt to get back in the game, MB got possession and once again scored
The Lady Bs play Nooksack Valley at 4:30 p.m. on October 10 at the Pipe and oppose the Turks at Sultan on October 15. In a conference as close knit as the NCC, neither Blaine nor six other contenders for a playoff spot can afford to lose to anyone. An L, as in loss, can be lethal.

joey and rich
You remember Joey and Rich.. and their very special wedding, it took place on a fresh 11 degree, spring day in Victoria last year. There were three things missing from the best day ever. Firstly, Murphy. The DOG. Secondly, SUN. There was none. Not even for a second. And thirdly the BEARD. So when Joey and Rich popped into Agnes Water on their way around Australia, we had Murphy and we sun, oh and Rich's beard. And this is what we made.
as seen in Your Day Bride to Be
Always so lovely to be able to see one of your favourite weddings in print. Johanna and Richard's wedding is featured in todays in Bride to Be, Your Day Best Real Weddings magazine. It's such a beautiful wedding, so full of love and details. You can spy it in its glorious entirety here.

2013: Tripucka originally was selected 42nd overall by the Hamilton Nationals in the 2013 MLL Collegiate Draft, but the Hounds acquired his rights through a trade in January of that same year. While the midfielder got off to something of a slow start in his first few weeks of MLL action, Tripucka found his groove -- not coincidently -- as the Hounds surged into the playoffs. Tripucka appeared in eight regular-season games, and of the 10 goals he scored over that time, six came in the final two weeks of the season. The momentum kept rolling for the rookie as he tallied four points (2g, 2a) in two postseason games.
Collegiate: In four seasons with the Blue Devils, Tripucka tallied 47 goals and 48 assists, while adding 74 groundballs and 16 caused turnovers. He also contributed to two National Championship titles, the first as a freshman in 2010 and most recently as a senior in 2013.
