Standoff with armed man ends peacefully in Waukesha
Quick response by Waukesha police to a domestic incident Thursday prevented a violent encounter from becoming deadly.
Officers were called to a home in the 1700 block of Oak Ridge Court about 9:40 a.m. and found a 25-year-old woman with a gunshot wound to her neck, Waukesha police Sgt. Jerry Habanek said. She told police her boyfriend was still inside with a gun. Habanek said the woman's wound was not life threatening.
Police set up a perimeter around the house and eventually made phone contact with the 32-year-old man inside. Negotiators were able to get him to surrender without incident about 2:25 p.m., Habanek said.
The man had suffered a gunshot wound to his hand, Habanek said, and was arrested and transferred to a hospital for treatment and a psychological evaluation.

Muskego man charged with sexually assaulting 12-year-old Waukesha girl
A 24-year-old Muskego man is charged with sexually assaulting a 12-year-old Waukesha girl, whom he communicated with through various social media applications.
Ethan C. Holt was charged on Thursday, Oct. 30, with two counts of first-degree child sex assault — sexual contact with a person under the age of 13 — and another count with use of a computer to facilitate a child sex crime. Each charge is a felony.

Habanek said Holt used social media telephone apps to communicate with the victim.
Habanek said the apps used were Tinder, a matchmaking mobile app that connects with users' Facebook profiles and also allows users to use GPS technology so they can be matched with anyone within a certain distance; KiK Messenger, an instant messaging app for mobile devices; text messaging; Whisper, which allows users to send messages anonymously, and to receive replies; and Snapchat, a photo messaging app.» Read Full Article

Former Waukesha County Health and Human Services building has new life
Mary Emery said she and local preservationists in Waukesha have had their "wins and losses" in trying to protect historical properties from becoming casualties within the city and county over the years.
What happened Tuesday night was in the 'W' column, said Emery, the president of the Waukesha Preservation Alliance.
That's because the Waukesha County Board voted to remove spending money in its five-year capital projects plan for the demolition of the county's old Health and Human Services building — the one-time Moor Mud Baths Resort — on the grounds of the Waukesha County Courthouse.
Emery said she was surprised by the vote — 14 supervisors voted to take $3.3 million that would have been spent to raze the building out of the plan, compared to just 10 who voted for the building to be torn down. Every county committee had previously followed staff's recommendation on voting to raze the building.

Catholic Memorial leaves early struggles in rear view
The Catholic Memorial football team began its 2014 playoff run with a 49-6 win over the visiting Raiders from Two Rivers to move onto the second round against Kewaskum next Friday.
Despite the decisive result, however, the game started slowly for the Crusaders. Two Rivers received the opening kickoff, and quarterback Marcos Alfaro hit Ethan Willman for a 69-yard touchdown pass and a 6-0 lead for the seventh-seeded underdog.
The Crusaders hit back on their next possession. Then, they hit back some more.
It started with a 17-yard touchdown run from Tommy Garza to tie the game at 6. The Raiders couldn't get past their own 34 yard line on their next possession, and after a punt set the Crusaders up on their own 45, Alex Bray found Fletcher Metz for a 31-yard touchdown pass and a 12-6 Memorial lead three plays later.
"It was definitely a little concerning," Garza said of the Raiders' opening score. "We tried this week to come out and really prepare, but obviously it was a little bit of a rocky start. We got it together on offense and then we pulled through with our defense."» Read Full Article
Blount capitalizes for Waukesha West, Greenfield eliminated
Waukesha West quarterback Conor Blount turned a short field into a long night for the visiting Greenfield Hustlin' Hawks.
The Wolverines defense provided opportunistic field position, and Blount responded with three second-quarter touchdown passes as Waukesha West rolled to a 35-0 victory over Greenfield in the first round of the Division 2 state football playoffs on Oct. 24.
"That was huge," said Blount, who completed 11 of 17 passes for 139 yards. "All credit to the defense. They put us in those spots, and we just have to capitalize off that. You don't get many chances where you're going to work with 50 or less yards."
The second-seeded Wolverines (8-2) advanced to next weekend's second-round game against sixth-seeded Waterford (7-3), which erased a 14-0 halftime deficit to upset third-seeded South Milwaukee, 21-14.
Each of the Wolverines' first three scores were set up by forcing the Hawks to punt from deep in their own territory.» Read Full Article

Rep. Bill Kramer faces jail time after pleading to sexual assault
Waukesha — Just days ahead of a scheduled jury trial, state Rep. Bill Kramer (R-Town of Waukesha) Thursday pleaded no contest to reduced charges of two misdemeanor counts of fourth-degree sexual assault.
Kramer entered the plea during what was to have been a status conference on the case, stemming from felony sexual assault charges filed in March against the former No. 2 lawmaker in the Assembly.
Assistant District Attorney Debra Blasius said her office will recommend three years of probation, with a variety of conditions, including nine months in jail with work-release privileges.
Kramer, 49, will not have to register as a sex offender, but must undergo a sex offender assessment and any recommended treatment. Sentencing is set for Nov. 25 before Reserve Judge Neal Nettesheim.
By avoiding a felony conviction, Kramer will be able to serve the remainder of his term in the Assembly, which ends in January. He is not seeking re-election this fall.» Read Full Article

2 A woman at 732 E. North St. wrote a letter to the police department because she believed a man was cutting a wire on her raccoon trap in her backyard prior to 4:24 p.m. Oct. 10. She said she has never witnessed the man on her property but feels he's the culprit because her traps catch the squirrels the man feeds.

Graphic Content | Stencil It In
Steven Heller, a former art director at The New York Times, is a co-chair of the M.F.A. Design Department at the School of Visual Arts and a blogger and author.
In a just world, a Baltimore elementary school teacher, Ruth Libauer Hormats, and her brother, Robert Libauer, should have been elevated into the type design pantheon. In the 1940s Ruth invented, and Robert marketed, a handy stencil-letter drawing system for the do-it-yourselfer, making ad hoc lettering for signs, posters and displays much easier. Although Ruth did not invent the stencil per se, her Stenso guide sheets on heavy cardboard were state-of-the-art for decades before the computer.

BMC Racing Team's Greg Van Avermaet won his second stage in three days at the Tour de Wallonie Wednesday – as teammate Daniel Oss finished second – and time gained in Van Avermaet's solo victory earned him the overall crown for the second time in three years.
'Just Trying To Win The Stage'
Van Avermaet overcame a 22-second deficit heading into the final stage by attacking at the base of the finishing climb and earning a 10-second time bonus for the stage win while finishing far enough ahead of past race leader Alexandr Kolobnev (Katusha Team), who struggled with a technical problem, and Anthony Geslin (FDJ.fr), who was in second place but was dropped on the climb. "I was just trying to win the stage," Van Avermaet said. "From zero to three victories, this is really great for me. I'm very happy with my Tour de Wallonie. It is a parcours that suits me and it's good for my confidence for San Sebastian (on Saturday)." Before his win on Monday, Van Avermaet's last victory had come at Paris-Tours in October of 2011. In the final overall standings, Geslin finished second, 10 seconds back, while Kolobnev slid to third, at 12 seconds, and Oss was fourth, at 20 seconds.
Ballan Released From Hospital
BMC Racing Team Assistant Director Jackson Stewart said the formula that helped Van Avermaet win Stage 3 on Monday worked equally as well at the end of the 144.7-kilometer stage after a breakaway was brought back with 17 km to go. "It was impressive," Stewart said. "It was the same thing we've been doing all week. Everyone did everything perfectly. Taylor Phinney came to the front and put Greg right there at the bottom. When Phinney pulled off, Greg just lit it up on the cobblestones and stayed on the gas the whole way up." After the race, the BMC Racing Team received more good news when Alessandro Ballan was released from the hospital where he had been under observation since Sunday night after complaining of stomach pain. The former world road champion competed in Stages 1 and 2 before withdrawing from the race.

The NFL Today on CBS was on of the preeminent sports programs on television in the early 1980s. It was a perfect combination of reporting, analysis, predictions, humor and talent. But, there was no personality on the show more popular than Jimmy "The Greek" Snyder. Born in Steubenville, Ohio, to Greek immigrants, Jimmy overcame childhood tragedy, moved to Las Vegas, and eventually became the biggest name in the world of sports handicapping. When CBS added him as an analyst on The NFL Today, "The Greek" further increased his stature as a national folk hero and helped bring sports gambling into the mainstream. From his rise to respectability to his tragic demise, Peabody Award-winning filmmaker Fritz Mitchell takes a uniquely personal look at Jimmy's life. With interviews from his family, friends and CBS co-workers, including Brent Musburger, Phyllis George, and Dan Rather, The Legend of Jimmy the Greek provides a humanizing glimpse into the life and downfall of an American sports icon!

Mentoring event serves up career advice in a flash
Friday - 3/23/2012, 8:26pm EDT
Budget cuts are forcing agencies to shrink their staff development programs. In turn, federal workers increasingly are seeking career guidance elsewhere.
Nonetheless, agencies recognize the importance of mentoring, said Chief Human Capital Officers Council Executive Director Kathryn Medina.
"Agencies are looking to send people here to get those intangible pieces of advice that used to be done on the job," she said. "Today things are just so fast-paced and so busy that leaders find it difficult and challenging on a daily basis to give that feedback to their employees."
HR University, a joint project of the council and the Office of Personnel Management, hosted a flash mentoring" event earlier this week at the Patent and Trademark Office's Virginia headquarters. Human resources staff from 20 agencies rotated between conference tables every 30 minutes. At each table, they were greeted by a seasoned HR professional.
While questions ranged widely, there were some consistent themes to the advice the mentors offered. Below are some of those tips:
Master the nuts and bolts of your job. Then understand your environment.That's "strategic HR," said former General Services Administration Chief People Officer Gail Lovelace. "In HR, we tend to think about our own little world, and we don't think about it in terms of the bigger environment," she said.
Today's budget pressures are giving human resources staff the chance to develop new skills, she said.
"Those are learning opportunities," she said. In the 1980s, she volunteered to do a reduction-in-force at her agency and ended up letting a very close friend go.
"Those negative things aren't always easy because people struggle making those decisions," she said. "But we survived."
Go outside your box.Mentors recommend dabbling in different areas of your field. They suggest volunteering to shadow someone with an interesting job, applying for a detail assignment elsewhere, or even seeking a position outside your field to broaden your skills and perspective.
Pay attention to vacancy announcements.They say a lot about how innovative a human resources department is, said NASA Human Capital Strategist Stephanie Diamond. Most job announcements are boring, she said.
"I wouldn't want to apply," she said. "I get them online just so I can say, 'Who's got a snazzy announcement?' That's the place where I'd want to work because they're trying to do something different."
Surround yourself with motivated people. Don't let the naysayers keep you down, Lovelace said. Many people like to complain but aren't willing to address the situation, she said.
"Somehow you have to keep figuring out how to keep that motivation alive and you have to find some other positive people," she told one woman who complained about low morale in her office.
Be persistent.Office of Personnel Management Director John Berry spoke about conservation biologist Deborah Kleinman, who worked at the National Zoo until she died in 2010.
Kleinman tried several times to reintroduce into the wild the endangered golden lion tamarin monkey. She finally succeeded after letting them loose in Washington's Rock Creek Park, Berry said. There, they learned to fend for themselves. She shipped those monkeys to their native Brazil, where "they bred like rabbits," he said. "Today, from that initial population of 200, there are well over 2,000 in the wild."
HR University plans to hold three more flash mentoring sessions this year.

Hello Everyone, I'm new to these boards. I do not live in NH, I live in North Jersey. I'm not a hiker or much of an outdoor type person, but I love Mt. Washington and the surrounding area. Since the early 90's I have vacationed in North Conway many times, I've been to the top 3 times and each time I was in awe. One time I did have the pleasure of meeting Nin.
The last few times I've been in the area is was too cloudy or closed. I check the website most everyday to see views on your cams and I read observer comments. The photos that are taken are just beautiful and I often use them as my desktop photo. A lot of the people I know can't believe that I have taken such an interest in some where that is 7 hrs. away, but I am already planning my next trip and I can't wait.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (June 13, 2012)—Include Me Out will try for her fourth consecutive graded stakes win when she faces seven others in the $250,000 Vanity Handicap Saturday at Betfair Hollywood Park.
A Grade I for fillies and mares at 1 1/8 miles over Cushion Track, the Vanity is the most significant of three stakes on the program. It will be preceded by a pair of 5 ½ furlong races for 2-year-olds – the $100,000 Willard L. Proctor Memorial Stakes and the $100,000 Cinderella Stakes, which is restricted to fillies.
Post time Saturday is 1 p.m. The Vanity is the ninth of 10 races. The Proctor goes as the third and the Cinderella is the seventh.
Owned by Samantha Siegel's Jay Em Ess Stable and trained by Ron Ellis, Include Me Out is undefeated since stretching out earlier this year. The 4-year-old daughter of Include and the Mazel Trick mare Don't Trick Me won the Grade II La Canada Jan. 22, the Grade I Santa Margarita March 17, then captured the Grade II Marjorie L. Everett Handicap when switched to Cushion Track May 19. Two of the victories were at 1 1/16 miles while the Santa Margarita was at the Vanity distance.
Bred in Kentucky by Brereton C. Jones, Include Me Out has won five of nine and earned $453,600. A win Saturday would be the second in the Vanity for Ellis, who won with Twice The Vice for owners Pam and Marty Wygod in 1997.
Zazu will try to provide owners Jerry and Ann Moss with their fourth Vanity win in the last five years. John Sadler, who won the 2004 Vanity with Victory Encounter, the trains the 4-year-old Tapit filly for the Mosses, who saw Zenyatta dominate Betfair Hollywood Park's biggest race for older females in 2008, 2009 and 2010.
Out of the Mr. Greeley mare Rhumb Line, Zazu has won four of 12 and earned $691,985. The 2011 Hollywood Oaks winner, the gray was fourth in Everett, her first start in more than seven months.
Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert, who has a Spring/Summer meet high eight stakes wins, will be seeking his first Vanity victory when he saddles Ellafitz.
Second after setting the pace in the Everett, Ellafitz has won six of 16 and earned $445,957. Owned by Don and Ella Sivage's D &E Racing, the 4-year-old Tiznow filly out of the Dixieland Band mare Skat Girl has lost two in a row after winning three stakes in succession.
The win streak began in the Grade II Bayakoa Handicap last Dec. 4, then continued at Santa Anita with gate-to-wire victories in the Paseana Handicap (Jan. 15) and the Santa Maria Stakes (Feb. 18).
Third in the Everett, Caelis will be making her first appearance in a Grade I. Owned by Brous Stable and Wachtel Stable and trained by Peter Miller, the 4-year-old English bred daughter of Avonbridge and the Lyphard mare Shona is 4-for-18 with earnings of $104,858.
Caelis has one win in six starts in the United States, taking a $54,700 allowance race April 26 over Cushion Track.

Rock and Glory makes her initial start in a graded event after consecutive blowout wins for owner-breeder Ernie Moody's Mercedes Stables LLC and trainer Tim Yakteen. Like Include Me Out, Rock and Glory is perfect around two turns. The two victories – including a $54,000 allowance score May 10 in her Betfair Hollywood Park debut – were by a combined 19 ½ lengths.
The 4-year-old Rock Hard Ten filly and the Southern Halo mare Brooke's Halo is 2-for-4 with a bankroll of $73,840.
Yakteen also entered Zafeen's Pearl, who will be making her first start in this country for owner Ed Tannenbaum.

Truman Posted December 10, 2012 By Kenneth Lowande 1857: The Inaugural Before the Tempest Photograph of James Buchanan's 1857 presidential inauguration at the US Capitol in Washington, D.C. First ever such photograph. Photo courtesy of the Library of Congress. PD. Each week leading up to President Obama's second inauguration, which will take place on January 21, 2013, RTT is featuring an inaugural address by a president from the Miller Center's archives. "To the Patriot Buchanan / The tribute we owe, / Til the people proclaim it again to bestow, / And the fourth day of March be again made to yield, / A harvest of Glory in Liberty's field." -Col. W. Emmonn, an Ode composed in honor of James Buchanan's inauguration History has not been kind to James Buchanan. Historians in the business of ranking presidents generally place him near the infamous bottom of the list - beyond the relative harmlessness of being completely unknown (Millard Fillmore) and sometimes even the disgrace of scandal (Warren G. Harding). Arguably, he his lowly rank is, in part, due to his proximity to the near-universally accepted "best" president, Abraham Lincoln. The contrast does not serve Buchanan's legacy well. To summarize his historical portrait: he is the president who believed that the South had no right to secede from the Union, and that the president had no right to stop them. Not surprisingly, his inaugural address gets very little attention from presidential scholars. While there is no use in arguing for renewed attention to Buchanan, it is worth noting that the inaugural addresses of "failed" presidents are at least as interesting as those of successful ones. At the time, Buchanan's inaugural did not enjoy a warm reception. The front page of the New York Times featured the speech the next day, together with an article entitled "Narrow Escape of the President Elect from a Violent Death," which included unflattering details of Buchanan suffering from diarrhea as a side effect of accidental arsenic poisoning. Even more recent, evenhanded, considerations of Buchanan and his inaugural add only slight modifications to his "reviled" legacy. "James Buchanan," writes Michael Carrafiello of Miami University, "was tragically ill equipped to become the nation's chief executive at a time of burgeoning crises." The speech lives up to expectations, though it can be read two ways. It can be read as the best attempt of an incoming president to serve as an arbiter in a time of growing sectional conflict, or it can be read as a tragic miscalculation of an inept president-elect.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Kicker 10C102 by John Pollard What's a component sub and why would I want one? A component sub is simply a speaker that's designed to reproduce bass once it's installed in a compatible enclosure. Think about the impact of a movie soundtrack in a big theater or even in your own home HDTV setup. A component sub can add the same kind of power to the music in your car. And a car sub is not all about the boom that you hear on a street corner (although that's cool too) - you can pair a component sub with your choice of enclosure to get bass just the way you like it, from tight and punchy to fat and loose. And once you experience music in your car with a well-tuned subwoofer, you'll never go back. Big boom for the buck Strong bass adds a whole new dimension to your car's sound system, and Kicker Comp subwoofers give you tremendous bass value for your dollar. You'll hear and feel the power of Kicker bass without feeling like your wallet just got thumped. 2-ohm impedance for more power Kicker's 10C102 10" subwoofer handles up to 150 watts RMS to bring out the depth your music's been missing, and its 2-ohm impedance will bring out max power from your mono amp. This versatile sub works well in sealed or ported enclosures, and it's even suitable for free-air applications. Kicker technology at work This Comp sub features a flex-resistant polypropylene cone with 360-degree back bracing for hard-hitting lows without distortion. Its ribbed foam surround helps to keep the cone on target, while double stitching ensures your investment won't come apart at the seams. A tough steel basket provides a reliable foundation for big bass, while extensive venting ensures long-lasting performance that won't break down when the bass gets heavy.

That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box, verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Subwoofer Features Enclosure Compatibility Subwoofer Features Ribbed Foam Surround: The optimized ribbed foam surround allows extended cone excursion for additional bass output and higher SPL. The surround is double-stitched to the cone to add a mechanical fastener to the chemical adhesives. This prevents the cone and surround from separating in the harshest conditions. Spiralead Tinsel Leads: The Kicker Comp subwoofer features durable Spiralead tinsel leads, which are woven into the woofer's progressive-roll polycotton spider, for added strength and reliability. Steel Basket with Vented Pole Piece: The Kicker Comp subwoofer features a resilient, steel basket with coil-cooling perimeter venting and a vented pole piece for heat dissipation, so the high-temperature voice coil stays cool. Speaker Terminals: The spring-loaded, nickel-plated terminals provide solid connections for speaker wire up to 10-gauge. Single banana plugs and pin connectors will also fit. Rubber Magnet Boot: A black rubber boot covers the outside edge of the magnet structure to improve the cosmetics of the woofer and protect the magnet during installation. Enclosure Compatibility Enclosure Versatility: The Kicker Comp subwoofer is versatile, performing well in vented or sealed enclosures, and in free-air applications also. Sealed Enclosure Applications: A sealed enclosure design offers the smoothest response, with increased energy at the lowest frequencies (between 20 to 30 Hz). Compact (minimum enclosure volume): 1.0 cubic feet SQ (maximum enclosure volume): 2.4 cubic feet Recommended Vented Box Volume: A vented enclosure design is the choice for loud, high-performance bass for SPL contests.

I really am liking this AZ. Was playing with nock sets, d-loops and tying some different knots to serve as kissers last night. Decided to break out the chronograph (Shooting Chrony Beta). 28" draw (cams set in hole #1 - short as she'll go), 4 turns out on the 60 lb limbs (50 - 52 lbs??? - Barnsdale 155 marked), Hybrix 2.0 cams, CE Maxima Hunters (340 grains with points) - I was consistently 268 +/- 2 fps through the chronograph a foot in front of the riser. Plugging that in puts her between 330 and 335 IBO.
Wish it wasn't so bloody cold out so I could tune it at some distance. I can only manage 10 yds in the basement.
She isn't overly "loud" but there is some resonance after the shot in the riser. Need to setup a microphone to record it so I can play it back. It is difficult to listen to it when shooting short range. That arrow hitting the Block is loud.

hey rootsy i had the same problem in ma. only one dealer that dosen't stock much of anything.i took a chance and bought a pantera on ebay,i lucked out but buying a bow is like buying a car you want to take it around the block a few times to try it out,but a bow is much more important!!!!
Picking up the 2012 Cougar FC tomorrow. Have been tweaking the AZ a bit and have it shooting 275. Wonder how the FC will measureq up.
One thing I have discovered is that more than 3 turns out on the limbs and it is very inconsistent through the chrono. Cranked her up to two turns out and it went from +/- 3 fps to +/- 0.2 fps. Quieted down also.

Yer AZ is right in there. Mine at 52.5#, 29", with a 346gn arrow does 275.5 consistantly...
Going to have to wait a while longer for the Cougar. Wrong bow in wrong box apparently so somewhere out there someone has my bow. My dealer got things squared away with Joel today (Nitro 1.5s and all) and hopefully I will have her soon. I would have thrown cloaked cams into the mix but I seemed to be creating enough confusion as it is with this custom spec package.
I am just excited about getting the FC. Just something about the Cougar that I like and I cannot exactly put my finger on it. I am in lust with my AZ and I think the slimmer grip may be what the real winner is. Especially with my smaller hands.
I need to apologize for being so negative.

Longtime readers of this blog know that last year I was writing a vegan brownie cookbook. While I haven't completely given up on the project, it isn't on my list of priorities right now. I still love brownies though! Today I thought it would be fun to share my recipe for Fudgy Triple Chocolate Gluten-Free Brownies. Yep, triple chocolate indeed (and gluten-free)! They are really simple to prepare and even more fun to chomp down with your beverage of choice.
Fudgy Triple Chocolate Gluten-Free Brownies
2/3 cup warm water
3 Tablespoons flax meal
1/2 cup vegan butter
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1 1/4 cups unrefined sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup oat flour
1/3 cup sorghum flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/3 cup vegan white chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease an 8×8″ metal baking pan.
- In a small glass measuring cup, whisk together water and flax meal. Set aside to thicken.
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and the first measure of chocolate chips. Make sure to stir well in 30 second increments, until smooth. *Since microwaves vary in power, I suggest setting your microwave at medium power. You can also use a double boiler if you prefer.* Let cool slightly.
- Add flax mixture, sugar, and vanilla extract to chocolate mixture and stir until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flours, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum. Add dry ingredients to chocolate mixture and stir until no flour is visible. The batter will be thick.
- Fold in the white chocolate chips.
- Spoon batter into prepared baking pan and smooth out the surface with a spatula.
- Bake for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted halfway between the edge and the middle of the pan comes out with a few damp crumbs. DON'T OVERBAKE! The middle will appear unset and this is how it should be.
- Remove brownies from oven and cool completely on a wire rack. Once cool transfer the pan to the refrigerator and chill for at least a few hours so the brownies set properly. This is important for a fudgy texture.
- Cut into squares and serve. Store in the refrigerator for best results.
- Makes 9 large or 16 small brownies.

I think Willow Smith is the most awesome 11-year-old out there, so I'm super excited about the release of her new music video! We haven't heard much from her since 'whip my hair' and I was really hoping she wasn't a one hit and quit sort of girl. Well, she's not. In her new video for 'do it like me (rockstar)' you can see her whip her hair in Berlin, New York and Paris.
I guess she had a couple videos in 2011, but I just haven't been impressed again until now. Good job, Willow.
How do you feel about Willow Smith?

Since this has nothing to do with questions, it seemed silly to put it in the private forum, but if it's more appropriate to group topics together, feel free to move it.
Every year the seeding for ICT's prelim brackets seems to rankle people. My point here is not to complain about "one bracket being stronger than the others," it's to offer up two comments.
1. Were the "seeds" so to speak for the prelim bracket reflected in the final game of the prelims (i.e. was seed #1 supposed to be playing seed #2?). If so, there were some crazy things about that that seemed to reflect an over-reliance on D-value/SCT results and not enough on actual information about who was playing (i.e., Illinois B had a good SCT performance and D-value but had nothing like the same lineup; WUSTL seemed to have a very low seed despite having Gordon and Charles).
2. Some of the brackets ended up very annoyingly regional. In Minnesota's prelim bracket, we were pitted against Michigan, Illinois, Ohio State, and Carnegie Mellon. We had played Michigan, Illinois, and Ohio State at countless tournaments before ICT and in fact had already played Carnegie Mellon at SCT. Coming out to a national tournament and then playing about half of your prelim games against teams from your region or that you had just played is kind of annoying.
In general I thought the prelim brackets turned out to be balanced okay. The number of logjams for the last playoff spot reflects the extremely strong field this tournament had--several of the second bracket teams were top bracket contenders.

SOMERSET, N.J. -- Saint Elizabeth senior midfielder Meghan Murray tallied six goals and junior midfielder Christina Rios added a hat trick on seasonably warm Sunday afternoon in North Eastern Athletic Conference lacrosse action at Soccer Centers.
The Screaming Eagles faced an eight-goal deficit against NEAC foe Cazenovia College and behind Murray and Rios rallied to get within three goals late in the second half.
The Wildcats (5-3, 2-0 NEAC) used a pair of late scores and draw controls to hold on for a 14-10 victory on the opening weekend for NEAC lacrosse this season.
Alicia Priest led Cazenovia with a game-high eight goals while Kim Vrigian added four scores with ground balls.
The Wildcats opened up a 6-0 lead at the start of the game before Murray broke through with a free-position goal at 12:33 for her team-leading 36th goal of the season.
CSE senior Dina Toledo followed with her eighth goal of the season to further cut into the deficit yet Cazenovia entered the intermission with an 8-2 after a pair of scores from Priest and Jessica Cramer.
Trailing 10-2 at the start of the second half, CSE found its offensive rhythm. Rios scored her first goal of the afternoon and the shifty Murray followed with a pair of goals of her own.
Saint Elizabeth scored six of the next seven goals and get within 11-8 after Rios converted a free-position shot at 9:36.
Murray would score twice more, including one such score where she drove hard to the right post, danced back across the front of the goal and shoveled a smooth backhand shot inside the left post. Murray now has 41 goals on the season, tops of the team.
CSE senior Barbara Beresova posted made seven saves in goal. Her counterpart on Cazenovia, Christina Marra, stopped several CSE scoring chances, making nine saves.
The Screaming Eagles (4-3, 0-2 NEAC) are on the road for their next five games, starting this coming weekend with a road trip to Keuka (N.Y.) College and Wells College.
