With a poets heart and a rockers soul, Luka Bloom is regarded as one of Irelands best-respected contemporary folk artists, having produced 20 albums since the 1970s, Bloom continues to push the boundaries of what his music can do, and he is still making provocative, poetic music that delves deep into the intricacies of the human soul and pulls out the nuggets and puts them in a song.
Kevin Barry Moore, as he was named in the beginning, came from the land of St Brigid in Co. Kildare, Ireland. It was in a musical family he was brought up; he is the younger brother of renowned singer and songwriter Christy Moore. On his way to New York, where he settled in 1987, he decided to embrace fully the change of leaving the homeland and became officially for the first time Luka (from Suzanne Vegas song of the same name) Bloom (Joyces great Dubliner from Ulysses.
Luka Bloom has the power to bring audiences to a hush as his poetic lyrics bounce over melodies in a beautiful, captivating way. The same artist can rouse the spirit of the audience to the ceiling when he changes the tempo.
Luka has a brand new album, Head and Heart, released in spring of 2014.
someone whose quest is far from over, but whose comfort in his own skin bears testament to a road well travelled. And the music's not half-bad either. Magnificent. - SIOBHÁN LONG - THE IRISH TIMES
Bloom never fails to deliver an entertaining show, and you are hereby advised to catch him at a town near you. - MIKE FARRAGHER - IRISH VOICE

Today i used the dungeonfinder for a random za group. I like playing with different people from all over europe. That makes this game such fun. I play wow for over 4 years now and think its a real addition to the game. Lately and today especcially i encountered a group with a member of Itemplari. He joined as a healer and on the first boss he needed on a tanking ring. Even when he was told not to, and logged off right after. THis happens almost every pug...i know...but today it annoyed the hell out of me. In the 4 years that im playing wow..this is happening more often. The point is i play this game for fun ofcourse...and its only 1 item...but the attitude why plp do such a thing and spoil the fun for others mainly out of selfishness annoyed the hell out of me.
So i made a caracter on this server to talk to the guildofficers about that persons actions, since in my guild, plp would be talked to when they do stuff like that. 3 officers and the guildleader ignored me, or told me its not forbidden so why should they care.
Well i care...i care about decency...i care about honor. Great guilds hold those values high and have at least the decency to sort this politely.....They didnt care.....and worse they said no one does on this server.....I seriously doubt that...thats why im posting this since i hope that there are still decent people even on italian servers that do care... Those i like to group with in any crossrealm dungeons...the plp that dont care.....do not join any of my groups again...
I Templari...meaning Templar i would expect some code of conduct....obviously you need a namechange if thats your code of conduct. And i dont mean the ninjaing by itself, but mostly the rude and unpleasantly way this guildleading non response to this and not being able to just listen to what i got to say and sort this in a polite manner.
Peace out...

You got unlucky.
Im sorry for you Chilz.
You were just unlucky to find this very bad person.
We have good people and bad people on our server, like every server does.
I give you a tip: put him on ignore next time, so you will be sure to not queue with him again ;) and put every member of <I Templari> on your ignore list everytime you find one of them so you wont play with these %*#*ty ninjalooters again.
These bad people should play alone or delete account.
LOL, nobody can hack your account just by whispering you, as long as you dont go on some website and fill with your user/password. Wake up man.
He is right blaming your guild, because this is not a good behaviour and you should listen to him in a polite manner and say something to your guildmate.
If you dont say anything and think "this happens everywhere" you are a %*#* like your guildmate and you deserve to play alone because you can't play with other people.
If you are a pvp guild, why you queue into heroic dungeon and ninjaloot pve item?
You fail at failing.
Just to add something here before things get misudnerstood. Im not wining about 1 item that i missed out on. Its the guildleading attitude that amazed me most of all. I asked 3 offcicers and the guildleader to have a decent conversation about it.
Runex didnt respond at all and put me on ignore after 2 polite whispers, Luxor didnt respond at all, waven or whatever his name is was to busy in bg and didnt want to spend time on it even when he was out of bg. And finally a rank 5 morkam responded and refused to group me with any officer even when i explained what i wanted to talk about.
With responsibility comes duty, and if you cant handle the duty...dont take the responsibility imo. This is where i was most chocked about, not about some &^% kid that dont know how to behave honorable...its the guildleading that sets the example. Every action of a guildmember reflects on the guild as a whole...if you allow that...then the whole guild is discredited.
But that obviously not an issue in Itemplari.

end of story.
We were in rated bg, we was organizing and making efforts to win.
You and every officer i appoached where standing either in ogrimmar or in durotar.
But im not debating any more since you seem to mis the point.
If you take responsibility seriously then you make time on an issue you find important...obviously neither one felt it was important enough....wich states my point i started with.
Edited by Chilz on 03/05/2011 17:34 BST
its simple: a guildmember has bad behaviour and someone first ask you to listen to him and then he explain what did happen.
if you are an officer with a brain you make some excuse with him and then you give a "warning" to that guild member.
Ignoring him or just saying "that happen in all server" it's not the right thing to do.
So everybody will blame your guild and avoid playing with your member in the future.
"You must be the change you wish to see in the world"

I'm sorry for that episode, that kind of things happends every day in wow, and not only on our guild or our server. I see too many times people blame hakkar for bad behaviour when there are other server too that do the same. In our guild normally we warning members to have a good beahviour but we have many people and sometimes is hard to control everyone, when we found someone that not act correctly normally we kick him...so if yous till here can tell us the name of the player if you remember? Hope that it would be a clearing post ( sorry for my bad english)

Every action of an Hakkari reflects on Hakkar as a whole...if you allow that...then the whole server is discredited.
These guys are claiming to be a "pvp" guild? looool. Noone has reached 1.5K rating in arena's or rbg's. You guys are just a farming guild. nothing more, nothing less.
800 or more members? 741 isn't 800+
Getting hacked by a whisper? ....
85 Tauren Druid
It hurts alot when someone ninja a loot you need for your main spec.
But i want to blame Blizzard for it.
Many times i've reported these actions and the only reply i've received has been: "that player had all the rights to need it".
These bad behaves will always be in game unless Blizzard changes the loot system basing it on the role in that istance.
Btw being polite and respectful is a must, otherwise the whole server community is discredited.
In our guild rules, one of the most important is the respect to other players (guildmate, server and pug).
Hope it won't happen again

Yale University
Tuesday, March 11th, 4:00 pm CEER 001
Robots have long been used to provide assistance to individual users through physical interaction, typically by supporting direct physical rehabilitation or by providing a service such as retrieving items or cleaning floors. Socially assistive robotics (SAR) is a comparatively new subfield of robotics that focuses on developing robots capable of assisting users through social rather than physical interaction. Just as a good coach or teacher can provide motivation, guidance, and support without making physical contact with a student, socially assistive robots attempt to provide the appropriate emotional, cognitive, and social cues to encourage development, learning, or therapy for an individual. In this talk, I will review some of the reasons why physical robots rather than virtual agents are essential to this effort, highlight some of the major research issues within this area, and describe some of our recent results building supportive robots for teaching social skills to children with autism spectrum disorder and for teaching nutrition to typically developing children.

Tory MP Bernier questions impact of climate change
Former minister says Canada is 'wise' for not cracking down on industrial pollution
Mike De Souza And Sheldon Alberts, Canwest News ServicePublished: Thursday, February 25, 2010
Environment Minister Jim Prentice is dismissing suggestions from a former cabinet colleague that the Harper government is delaying action on climate change because it doubts scientific evidence that humans are causing dangerous changes to the atmosphere.
Former industry and foreign affairs minister Maxime Bernier said the government had adopted a "wise" position by not cracking down on pollution from industry. Bernier, the Conservative MP for Beauce, Que., said he believes that dozens of other countries, their national science academies and peer-reviewed research are all exaggerating warnings about human activity and the impact of climate change.
"Every week that goes by confirms the wisdom of our government's modest position," wrote Bernier, in a letter published Wednesday in Montreal's La Presse newspaper.
"There is, in fact, no scientific consensus. What's certain is that it would be irresponsible to spend billions of dollars to impose unnecessarily stringent regulations to resolve a problem whose gravity we still are not certain about. The alarmism that often characterized this issue is no longer at stake. Canada is right to be cautious."
Climate scientists say that human activity, changes in land use, and pollution from the consumption of fossil fuels for energy is producing greenhouse-gas emissions that are trapping heat in the atmosphere. While they believe that some of the warming over the past century has been caused by natural factors such as the sun, they have concluded that much of the increase in average global temperatures is due to human activity.
Scientists also have predicted a wide range of impacts, from melting ice and rising sea levels, to more severe weather, water shortages, the disappearance of many species and irreversible damage to the earth's ecosystems.
"As you know, there are many points of view on the science debate that is currently circulating around," said Prentice.

Small Mammal Medicine: Ferret:
Blood Collection in Ferrets
Date March 17, 2013
Key words: Venipuncture, ferret, jugular, cava, saphenous, cephalic.
All but the weakest ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) can be challenging to restrain for blood collection. Consider sedation with midazolam (midazolam 0.25- 1.0 mg/kg IM) or general anesthesia, using isoflurane or sevoflurane, particularly if the handler or phlebotomist is relatively inexperienced.
Remember that anesthesia can affect ferret hematology. Ferrets anesthetized with isoflurane exhibit a rapid decrease in hematocrit, hemoglobin, and red blood cell count. These values do not return to pre-anesthetic levels for approximately 45 minutes.
Syringe and needle size will vary with the vessel selected. (Fig 1)
- Depending on the vessel used, select a 22- to 30-gauge needle.
- Use a small syringe (0.5 to 1.0 ml) to reduce the risk of collapsing smaller veins.
- A 3-ml syringe can be used for the jugular vein and cranial vena cava in larger ferrets.
Ferret skin is relatively thick, especially over the neck, so if you are not able to collect a sample on your first try be prepared to use a fresh needle each time.
Place blood samples into microtainers (BD Microtainer Blood Collection Tubes; Becton Dickinson and Company, Franklin Lakes, NJ). (Fig 2)
Blood volume
The total volume of blood that can be safely collected typically ranges from 0.5% to 1.0% of body weight.
Example: A maximum of 10 ml can be collected from a 1000-gram healthy ferret.
Collect smaller volumes (0.5% BW) from geriatric and anemic, hypoproteinemic or otherwise
ill patients.
Recommended venipuncture sites
Jugular vein
The jugular vein is the most common venipuncture site in the ferret.
- Restrain patients in dorsal or lateral recumbency with the head extended and the legs pulled down toward the body.Ferrets can also be held in sternal recumbency at the edge of the exam table like a cat (Fig 3). Take care not to overextend the neck as this will flatten out the vessel.
- When compared to the cat, the ferret jugular vein tends to lie in a more lateral position. Clipping the fur can help to identify the vein.
- Insert the needle bevel up; be prepared to encounter tough ferret skin.
- Collect the blood sample as usual (Fig 4).
- Afterwards gently remove the needle, and apply firm, steady pressure
A third option for jugular venipuncture is described as follows:
- Restrain the ferret in a scruffed position with the feet dangling (Fig 5). The handler also holds the forearms back, by the ferret's side.
- A second handler restrains holds the hips.
- The phlebotomist then palpates the same landmarks as described for the cranial vena cava described below (point of the shoulder, point of the manubrium and the first rib) (Fig 6-8).
- Preferably select a 1 cc tuberculin syringe to minimize the risk of excessive negative pressure.
- Insert the needle parallel to the ground and perpendicular to the ferret. Aim the needle toward the cervical spine.
- Slowly move the needle caudally, while applying gentle negative pressure, until blood begins to flow (Fig 9).
The "hanging" jugular stick is a much more 'forgiving' position when compared to venepuncture of the cranial vena cava as you are truly hitting the jugular vein so there is far less risk involved.
Cranial vena cava
Venipuncture of the cranial vena cava is generally the quickest way to collect the largest amount of blood from the ferret. The ferret heart sits caudally within the long thoracic cavity and the risk of cardiac puncture is negligible (Fig 10). Nevertheless the cava can be lacerated if the ferret moves; therefore all but the most severely debilitated individuals should be sedated or anesthetized for "caval sticks".
Caval venipuncture is a blind technique, which relies on the identification of anatomic landmarks
- Place the ferret in dorsal recumbency with the forelegs pulled back along the sides of the chest.
- Position the animal squarely on the table in perfectly straight alignment. (If the ferret is not sedated, this technique requires 2 handlers).
- Identify the thoracic notch, the angle created by the manubrium and the first rib.
- Insert a 25 -gauge needle on a 1.0-3.0 ml syringe into the thoracic notch (Fig 11).
- While maintaining slight negative pressure, direct the needle towards the opposite hip at an approximately 30-degree angle (Fig 12).
- Once blood starts to fill the syringe, do not move the needle.
- If blood is not aspirated, slowly pull the needle out until it is just beneath the skin, then slightly redirect the needle towards midline. Alternatively, simply pull the needle out completely, and start over using a fresh needle.
Lateral saphenous vein
The lateral saphenous vein is generally used to collect small volumes of blood for blood glucose testing, packed cell volume measurement, or complete blood count.
- Two or three people are required for saphenous venepuncture. One or two people to restrain the ferret, and one person to collect the blood sample.
- Grasp the rear leg just above the stifle to engorge the vessel and prevent the limb from moving (Fig 13). Alternatively apply a tourniquet, such as a Penrose drain clamped with a hemostat.
Simply hold the vessel rather than rolling it.
- Clipping the fur can help with identification of the vessel. It is generally easiest to cannulate the straight segment of the saphenous vein as it passes along the back of the leg as opposed to the segment of vein that crosses the hock (Fig 14).
- Securely tucking a small towel around the bottom foot will prevent kicking at a crucial moment.
- Select a 22- to 30-gauge needle on a 0.5- to 1.0-mL syringe. Use of a small syringe and slow, gentle aspiration will prevent the vein from collapsing (Fig 15).
Cephalic vein
The cephalic vein is usually quite prominent in the ferret, and it is relatively easy to cannulate, however consider reserving this vessel for intravenous catheter placement whenever possible (Fig 16).

Time for some show AND tell. This post went up earlier today and I wasn't ready, so apologies if you reblogged this image with an odd description. Sometimes, I like to talk out my thought process for each piece in neat little condensed posts like this one. So away we go!
For Scarlet, here, I wanted to draw on more of her Romani upbringing. I looked at a lot of Romani garments and women to draw inspiration from. Had to keep her decked out in reds, otherwise she wouldn't be the Scarlet Witch anymore. I knew I wanted to play around with her headpiece, as I feel it's a bit dated. Every other female character introduced in the olden timey days of Marvel comics had a palette swap of that headpiece, so I thought we should dress it up a bit. Hard for me to escape my fashion inclinations ;). And yes, her legs are a bit short. Sowweeboutit.
Sue and Reed there are fashionized. I wanted their colors to be inspired by the uniforms of the F4 without being obvious about it. Sue's coat was meant to recall The Thing's color scheme, though I don't know how successful it is. The houndstooth was a bitch, but I'm happy to get that detail in. Reed can be one of the least sexy male characters in the Marvel U, in my opinion, so, honestly, a big goal was to make him handsome yet unique.
I know next to nothing about Medusa except that she got that long weave out the limo. Seriously, hair game on point. I felt like I had the opportunity to get really creative with her, and for some reason the idea of a white snake stuck in my mind. They are beautiful and simple and striking, and I thought it would be a great visual to tie in with her. The headpiece covering her eyes is an homage to her old half face mask and obviously conjures up imagery of the mythological Medusa. Looking at all her various costumes she either looked a little dopey, or hyper-sexualized, so I wanted to make her look "cool" in a way she's never looked before.
Thoughts? Comments? Concerns? I'm here for you, kiddies.
love these interpretations, especially the scaly texture on medusa and the design of scarlet's headpiece

I've had the occasion to travel from my small town to the Minneapolis-St. Paul area (what we locals affectionately refer to as "the cities") several times in the past few months. It's roughly a two and a half hour drive, which isn't so bad, but there are only so many hours of This American Life I can listen to before I start to tune out.
And so, as I approach the middle of my journey, which is the St. Cloud area, I always see not one, but two giant billboards for the local AM Catholic radio station. With two giant billboards enticing me, how could I NOT listen? And boy am I glad I did! I've learned SO many good things from listening, and my life has been so enriched by the teachings of the one true church.
So let me summarize the collective wisdom I've gained onto you, fair readers.
1.) If you're not married, don't have sex. Not any. Not ever. Especially if you're female. It's probably the worst thing you could ever do. You're going to break your parents' hearts and probably die of a horrible STD (and that's only after you've totally ruined God's plan for your otherwise perfectly planned life). Sex is demeaning (if you're female) and the "hook up culture" will only leave you broken, and a shell of your former, pure self. Especially if you're female. Besides, you can't really enjoy sex unless you are fully giving your future to the other person, by which I mean consenting to give birth nine months later and raise a child for the rest of your life. Also, watching rom-coms will make you slutty. Especially if you're female.
2.) If you ARE married, have sex. Lots of it, all the time. Why? Because babies, that's why. Babies are a gift from God and will do nothing but add to your enjoyment of life and bring you tons of fun and happiness. And don't even think about birth control. Having babies is not a choice to be made, it's a blessing from above. You made the choice to have kids already when you said those wedding vows, and there's no going back now. Only God knows how many kids you can handle. You may be thinking, "but what about my high blood pressure, or financial situation, or sanity?" Doesn't matter. Keep in mind that God will provide. Afraid of mounting medical bills from having all those babies, or the cost of food, clothing, etc? Not to worry. God has already thought about all of that for you, and decided you'll be just fine with 25 kids (and more than likely, they'll all be healthy and perfect anyway). You can always make more money. It's easy. Too many people these days spend all their time worrying about how babies will affect their lives, instead of considering that babies are totally awesome!! They have cute smiles and say cute things and look so cute in their cute little outfits. And you really don't want to be one of those schmucks only raising one or two boring kids, do you?
So basically, what I've learned is that the Catholic Church is extremely concerned about how much sex you're having, and why you're having it. Only they know the true purpose and gravity of sex, and how it affects people. If you would only take their advice, it would all be smooth sailing from here on out. So don't screw this up people!! Or, I guess, DO screw it up, but only if you're married and want to have dozens of kids, as is your duty to God. Especially if you're female.

Stories for Life
is an educational organization dedicated to teaching children the art of storytelling. Through
classroom instruction and opportunities for practicing the spoken word,
in the school and the community, children develop the skills to become
the cultural storytellers of their generation. Through the variety of storytellers available, each program is unique. Since
humankind began, people have told stories to each other, to pass on
values, beliefs, common history and heritage, to teach factual and
conceptual information, and to form bonds of friendship. Storytelling
is a frequently overlooked, but at the same time uniquely powerful,
method of enabling children to build proficiency in language arts. Storytelling
helps students be active not only in presenting but also in focused
listening and reacting, enhancing the vital skills of communication. Owning Their Words
(a curriculum for upper elementary, middle and high school students)
was developed upon the premise that learning the art of storytelling can
have far reaching consequences when it comes to a child's education –
storytelling enhances interpersonal skills, and greatly strengthens
communication, it stimulates language development, it promotes
creativity, and it strengthens a student's capacity for objective and
rational thinking. Over the last decade and a half
education research has documented these findings in a variety of
articles and educational publications. What Is Storytelling? National Council of Teachers of English, excerpts from their position statement on storytelling: Storytelling
is relating a tale to one or more listeners through voice and gesture.
It is not the same as reading a story aloud or reciting a piece from
memory or acting out a drama--though it shares common characteristics
with these arts. The storyteller looks into the eyes of the audience and
together they compose the tale. The storyteller begins to see and
re-create, through voice and gesture, a series of mental images; the
audience, from the first moment of listening, squints, stares, smiles,
leans forward or falls asleep, letting the teller know whether to slow
down, speed up, elaborate, or just finish. Each listener, as well as
each teller, actually composes a unique set of story images derived from
meanings associated with words, gestures, and sounds. The experience
can be profound, exercising the thinking and touching the emotions of
both teller and listener.

Zivney to Congress: HSPD-12 plans need review
SIA representative points to ongoing technical and collaboration challenges with HSPD-12
SIA believes the PIV II technical requirements for the implementation of HSPD-12 require an investment both financially and in the development of new infrastructure. However, the scope of the investment and time required for implementation were underestimated by the government when it set goals for the deployment of HSPD-12 through Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum M-05-24. Traditionally the functions of authentication and authorization have resided locally with the administrator of the physical access control system (PACS). The HSPD-12 and Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 201 model have changed this: the credential issuer to a large degree now handles authentication while authorization remains a function of the PACS. This has created a unique challenge facing federal agencies, the development of a substantial shared infrastructure to accommodate the increased functionality and security features of the PIV II credential. For many agencies, the development of this new infrastructure presents a significant learning curve that they are working diligently to overcome.
Mr. Chairman, the implementation of HSPD-12 is truly a pioneering effort on behalf of the federal government. It requires that the human resources, information technology, and security departments interface and cooperate on an unprecedented level. These three disciplines traditionally are different in cultures and basic objectives. This creates challenges for all parties involved in implementing HSPD-12.
Although HSPD-12 may not draw the attention of our nation's major media outlets, the world is watching. HSPD-12 is truly transformational. The issuance of OMB Memorandum M-05-24 was a bold move. In spite of the technical and procedural challenges, the subcommittee should note that there has been enough early success to attract scrutiny of HSPD-12 by other nations, state and local governments and other industry sectors.
Mr. Chairman, some may question the value of the PIV II credential because of the significant cost differential compared to traditional security technologies and the additional integration efforts required. How ever, the use of an identity credential coupled with the use of fingerprints for authentication of the bearer and the use of digital certificates and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), promises to revolutionize government, significantly increase security, and conserve taxpayer dollars.
The methods and technologies needed to utilize the capabilities of the PIV II credential in a logical or physical access control system are still being discovered and developed. In the absence of clear guidance and specifications for the systems that will use the PIV card, some manufacturers have stepped up to the challenge and absorbed substantial research and development costs to produce next generation equipment capable of utilizing the features of a PIV II credential. These costs have been significant and made progress difficult as this work has been conducted without the benefit of having operational PIV II credentials available to manufacturers to develop and test associated products.
Mr. Chairman, given this subcommittee's oversight responsibility over the General Services Administration (GSA), you will be interested to know that this situation is exacerbated by the fact that the GSA has had to design a specification for the credential readers, and is testing to that specification, a role it has never undertaken in the past.
As a result, the GSA Approved Product List (APL) testing program had to be created from scratch. The test specifications had to be inferred from the NIST specifications that were silent on the logical and physical access control systems that would actually use the cards and card production apparatus. This made for a very lengthy process, which was challenging for both GSA and the manufacturers submitting equipment for evaluation. There is also a catch 22; only federal employees and contractors are authorized to possess PIV cards. However, manufacturers need PIV cards to develop products that will use the cards. Operational card stock for R&D and testing remains a key priority for the electronic security industry, due to the many options and variations allowed for in the NIST specifications.
GSA's current implementation of the approved products restricts these items to procurement from GSA Schedule 70, the Information Technology Schedule. However, the majority of the physical access control system components are assigned to Schedule 84, where they have always been. This makes it difficult both for the manufacturers submitting products and the government purchasers attempting to assemble systems from multiple GSA schedules. The decision to place the new PIV components "exclusively†on Schedule 70 was mandated by OMB. We believe this subcommittee should encourage the dual listing of approved HSPD-12 products on both Schedule 70 and Schedule 84 to serve both the IT security and physical security needs of agencies.

Patriots 28-3 with playoffs awaiting
By BARRY BURLESON
The Marshall Academy Patriots closed the regular season on a high note last week.
The number-one-ranked team in Class AA beat the fifth-ranked team in AAA, the top-ranked one in A and the second-ranked squad in Class AA. They're 28-3 overall with the playoffs starting this week.
"When I scheduled our last four regular season games (including a win the previous week over Hickory Flat), I intended on us getting tested severely going into the playoffs," coach Craig Dailey said. "That stretch run included beating a local public rival, beating MRA at MRA, a feat next to no one has pulled off in the last several years, and then finishing with the number one A team (West Memphis Christian) and number two AA team (Central Private) on back-to-back nights. This was borderline crazy, even for us, but for the boys to pull it off in a pretty anti-climactic matter like we did, shows just how good this group can be."
The Lady Patriots split the two games they played last week and finished the regular season at 13-18.
"I'm proud of how this bunch has competed," Dailey said. "They could have lain down but didn't and have had some very bright moments. We plan to pin our ears back and see how deep we can go in the playoffs.
"We play Carroll Thursday (in the district tournament) to punch a ticket to north state. Once we get in, it will come down to beating two state championship level teams to just qualify for state (five of the top seven AA girls teams are in the north), so the kids are going to battle and see how well we can finish."
The Patriots survived a see-saw battle on the road with big school Madison-Ridgeland Academy. They won 65-61 January 31.
Marshall was down 6-0 early but went up 13-10 on Kevin Fitzpatrick's three with 1:00 left in the first quarter.
MRA snatched the advantage back to start the second quarter. But MA led by five when Dakota Dailey nailed a three with less than a minute to go until halftime. The visiting Patriots were up 37-34 at intermission.
The lead swapping continued in the second half.
Marshall led 43-38 two minutes into the third on Peyton Lewis' bomb. It was tied at 51 after three.
Free throws proved crucial down the stretch. Brad Bennett, Andy Burleson, Dailey, Chase Ferrell and Lewis all hit some big ones.
Dailey poured in 18 points and Fitzpatrick 14. Bennett and Lewis added 12 and 11, respectively.
The Marshall girls took it on the chin, 56-22, versus MRA, ranked fifth in Class AAA.
MA was down only nine, 16-7, after one quarter but the deficit stretched to 37-10 at the half.
Emma Elgin scored more than half of Marshall's points. She had 14.
Marshall-W. Memphis
The Lady Pats and Pats added the icing to the "Senior Night" cake with a sweep of West Memphis Christian Friday night at home.
The MA girls, leading 14-12 after one quarter thanks to some big buckets from Elizabeth Skelton, started to pull away in the second period. Lane Cunningham's putback made it 23-16 with 3:30 to go before the break. Elgin's drive and bucket with three ticks to go upped the margin to 31-18.
Codie Robertson had back-to-back buckets late in the third, and then the lead rose to 15 on Chelsey Gilliam's basket late in the third.
The Lady Knights got to within eight in the fourth.
Elgin fired in 18 points. Skelton scored 15.
The Marshall boys' long-anticipated clash with the Black Knights, a former district foe, turned into a rout. The Patriots torched West Memphis 81-55.
Burleson's three gave the Pats early control at 9-2. The score was 18-9 after one period. MA picked up its full-court-pressing, running-and gunning style in the second quarter.
Dailey's drive and hoop stretched the lead to 20 (39-19) two minutes before the half. It was 42-21 at the break.
All the Patriots played in the second half as the home team won by 26.
Dailey was the top gun with 22. Others in double figures were Bennett with 13 and Fitzpatrick with 10. Twelve MA players scored.
MA boys-Central Private
The Pats were down 2-0 and 5-4 early to Central Private Saturday night, but that would be the only times they would trail all night.
They led by as many as 20 in the battle between top five Class AA powers before winning 58-45. It was played at Kirk Academy in Grenada, site of the state tournament February 20-25.
Fitzpatrick and Aaron McAlexander cashed in shots within seven seconds of one another to end the first quarter. Marshall was up 19-7.
Dailey's three made it 29-9 with 2:30 to go in the second. It was 29-15 at halftime.
The Rebels got to within 11 in the third, but the Patriots showed no panic. Lewis sank a turnaround shot in the lane, and early in the fourth the scoreboard read 45-29.
MA led 51-31 in the fourth and won by 13.
Dailey and Lewis gunned in 18 and 11 points, respectively. Fitzpatrick had nine.
The Patriots will play in the District 1-AA semi-finals Friday versus the North Delta-Indianola winner.
"The kids had a tremendous regular season and I would like to thank the MA family for your love and support," Dailey said. "Now everybody is 0-0. For this group and in particular our seniors, I hope that 'final horn' involves a trip to Clinton and a big 'gold ball,' but regardless they are going to make us proud and give it all they've got. It should be a fun next four weeks. I hope everybody comes out and does their part to help us make a 'Hoosier-esk' dream come true."

When guitarist Andy Cohen moved to Chicago in 1998 to go to law school, the trio resolved to stay together. Obviously, live appearances would be considerably less frequent, but with two thirds of the band still making their home in Seattle, I still held on to the vain hope that Cohen would move back, and I'd once again get to see the mighty Silkworm live show more than once every year or two. However, just the opposite happened, as this year, bassist Tim Midgett and drummer Mike Dahlquist made the big move to the Windy City, joining not only their guitar player, but also their record label, their recording engineer of choice (the inimitable Steve Albini), and, as luck would have it, a sizeable chunk of their fanbase. See, for as long as Silkworm had been a Seattle band, they were held in the highest regard and drew decent sized crowds pretty much everywhere except Seattle, where they would be lucky to draw fifty diehards on a Friday night. So, while it certainly makes sense in every way for the band to make the move to Chicago, I'd be lying if I didn't admit that it bummed me out a bit.
Interestingly, this consolidation, or pulling in of the ranks, as it were, has resulted in a rather intriguing beefing-up of Silkworm's roster. For the past ten-odd years, the 'Worm has been a fairly self-sufficient entity. When second guitarist Joel R.L. Phelps left the fold back in '95 for the greener pastures of a solo career, there was no talk of replacing him -- the band just soldiered on as a trio, and proceeded to release one of the best albums of their career, the sprawling, ambitious, brilliant Firewater. And a trio they remained, with de facto fourth member Steve Albini a constant presence behind the board.
However, Italian Platinum sees the trio expanding into a bloody five-piece, fer god's sake. Well, sort of. I guess Matt Kadane (ex-of Bedhead, currently of The New Year) is something of a full-fledged member, tinkling the ivories agreeably on songs like "LR72" and "Young", and laying down a positively greazy clavinet solo smack dab in the middle of "White Lightning". "A clavinet solo in a Silkworm song?!?" you ask incredulously? Well, yeah. And after a couple of listens, I must admit that it's a pretty nice moment. It's not like this is the first time Silkworm have brought a keyboard player into the mix -- we need only look to "I Must Prepare (Tablecloth Tint)" from Blueblood to see that Brett Gossman's piano playing was an integral part of that excellent tune -- but never before have so many songs on a Silkworm record had the benefit of such extra instrumentation. And that ain't even the half of it; Silkworm have even seen fit to bring a girl singer into the fold. Yes, folks, Bloodshot Records' very own Kelly Hogan is here, singing lead on one song, "Young", and contributing background vocals on many other tunes.
These two additions have the effect of bringing Silkworm closer to classic rock territory then they've ever dared venture under their own name. While this may come as no great surprise to Silkworm devotees, who are well aware that as their alter-egos, The Crust Brothers, (which also features Steve Malkmus, from that one band), Messrs. Cohen, Midgett and Dahlquist have been known to indulge in a full hour's worth of Creedence covers with "Sweet Child O' Mine" thrown in for an encore, "Young", the song that Hogan lends her pipes to, evokes nothing so much as a less histrionic Janis Joplin fronting The Band.
Truthfully, the band has been moving in this direction for some time -- their dead-on cover of The Faces' "Ooh La La" on Lifestyle showed this plain as day -- but several of the songs on Italian Platinum, including "Young" and "The Old You", take this style to its logical conclusion. And it's not as if Silkworm has abandoned their former bread and butter; opener "(I Hope U) Don't Survive" is a classic Cohen stomper, much in the vein of "Eff", from Blueblood, or "Nerves", from Firewater. "Dirty Air" and "The Third" are in a similar vein to previous Tim Midgett two-minute corkers, such as "Wet Firecracker" and "Redeye". Midgett also has a turn with his quiet, sensitive side, with the gentle "Is She a Sign" and the poignant "Moving" (which directly addresses Midgett's move from Seattle to Chicago). There's a moving Cohen slow-burner ("The Ram"), and another Midgett/Dahlquist vocal duel, in the same vein as "Around the Outline" from Lifestyle ("Bourbon Beard"), except catchier, and better executed, wonderfully juxtaposing Dahlquist's froggy croak with Midgett's soaring, emotional voice.
Perversely, some of the band's most accessible moments this time around also feature some of their most inscrutable lyrics. Cohen is guilty of this more than Midgett, especially in his songs that open and close the disc, "(I Hope U) Don't Survive" and "A Cockfight of Feelings". "Don't Survive" features the perplexing chorus "And I love you means I hope you don't survive the night", whereas "Cockfight" marries a catchy-as-fuck, almost funky Midgett bassline to strange lines like "The worst work on Earth is on a turkey farm / When those birds get excited, sound the alarm". Huh? Although Cohen's taste for obscure historical narrative goes way back (need we bring up his "Last chance to kiss General Pershing / Before Normandy" line from In the West's " "Dust My Broom"?), God only knows what he's going on about in tunes like "LR72" (whose lyrics are as impenetrable as its title) and "The Ram" ("Slap that meat out of your mouth / The Ram wouldn't like it in his house / Object of worship, And of torture / He is the system and the winning mystic"). Cohen's way too smart to just be spewing nonsense, and I'm sure he's got some sort of agenda going on behind these songs that I'm just not well-read enough to pick up on, but the results can be slightly frustrating.
Midgett, on the other hand, is slightly less obtuse. It sounds like he penned the lyrics to "Young", as straightforward and poignant as they are: "Everyone wants someone exotic / Who's in love with the ordinary". In the quiet, contemplative "Moving", Midgett addresses the problem of friends who you hardly ever see getting all choked up as soon as you decide to move away: "I won't leave you now / I rarely saw you anyhow / Why don't you pick up the telephone / And call me when I'm never home".
Even when you don't really know what he's talking about, Midgett has a way of infusing his words with emotional heft through his vocal delivery. While Cohen is laconic and seldom seems to break a sweat, you can practically see Midgett's eyeballs bulging out of his skull on the raucous chorus to "The Third". And in that same song, when he sings "When you play the third / Is it dirty, or is it kind of divine", he gets his point across -- even if you're not really sure what it is.
It's these sorts of paradoxes that make Silkworm one of the most important bands operating on the musical landscape today. While they consistently get dismissed as "generic indie rock" by folks who lack the patience to seriously dig into their oeuvre, they are as multi-layered and subtle a band as you'll find. The fact that they're not afraid to rock out with their cocks out on occasion, and that Andy Cohen is one of the most inventive guitarists operating in indie rock today, is merely a facet of their multilayered personality. As for the importance and general worthiness of Italian Platinum in the context of Silkworm's entire body of work, I'm not quite sure yet. Get back to me in a year.

Rarotonga has a very active sailing club that meets at Sails Restaurant in Muri on Saturdays. Sailing takes place on the lagoon in front of the restaurant.
Sailors compete in two man Sunbursts and also modified traditional-style outriggers. These sailing canoes are an exotic and graceful sight on Muri lagoon. They are 18 foot long and with a crew of three make for some fast and exciting sailing.
If you would like to be part of the action, come along on Saturday and ask one of the club members. You will be made very welcome. Racing starts at 1.30pm.
At the same time as embracing modern sailing, Rarotonga, Aitutaki and Manihiki are also reviving traditional vaka designs.Oe Vaka - Cook Islanders' passion
Paddling outrigger canoes (Oe Vaka) - whether as part of a team or solo - has become a passion for many Cook Islanders and a seriously competitive sport. Both men and women's teams have rigorous training schedules. On Rarotonga you see the paddlers training in front of Trader Jacks during the early evening or off the beach at Muri Lagoon.Oe Vaka - it's exciting and competitive
Outrigger canoes were, and still are, used for fishing outside the reef and in 1984 the first outrigger canoe was paddled in Rarotonga for sport rather than necessity. Twenty five years later some of those early paddlers are still heavily involved and thrilled to see the number of youngsters who have become involved and the success of the sport.
Vaka Eiva - a week of international paddling competitions and cultural festivities hosted by the Cook Islands - is now one of the biggest cultural events on Rarotonga. Vaka Eiva is held in November.

Katy's Mermaid
A mermaid cake for my beautiful daughter Katy's 8th birthday. She designed the whole thing. I am afraid I fell a bit short. Apparently I was supposed to have jelly fish suspended in mid air around the mermaid. Love that kid! She can design as many cakes as she wants! Chocolate mud cake with chocolate ganache frosting. Fondant. The mermaid is gum paste and fondant.

How spherical stars evolve to produce highly aspherical planetary nebulae
Researchers have said that only "strongly interacting" binary stars - or a star and a massive planet - can feasibly give rise to these powerful jets.
Eric Blackman, professor of physics and astronomy at Rochester, and his student, Scott Lucchini, wanted to determine whether the binaries can be widely separated and weakly interacting, or whether they must be close and strongly interacting.
By studying the jets from pre-planetary and planetary nebulae, Blackman and Lucchini were able to connect the energy and momentum involved in the accretion process with that in the jets; the process of accretion is what in effect provides the fuel for these jets.
As mass is accreted into one of the disks it loses gravitational energy. This is then converted into the kinetic energy and momentum of the outflowing jets, which is the mass that is expelled at a certain speed. Blackman and Lucchini determined the minimum power and minimum mass flows that these accretion processes needed to produce to account for the properties of the observed jets.
They then compared the requirements to specific existing accretion models, which have predicted specific power and mass flow rates.
They found that only two types of accretion models, both of which involve the most strongly interacting binaries, could create these jetted pre-planetary nebulae. In the first type of model, the "Roche lobe overflow," the companions are so close that the AGB stellar envelope gets pulled into a disk around the companion. In the second type of models, or "common envelope" models, the companion is even closer and fully enters the envelope of the AGB star so that the two objects have a "common" envelope.
From within the common envelope, very high accretion rate disks can either form around the companion from the AGB star material, or the companion can be shredded into a disk around the AGB star core. Both of these scenarios could provide enough energy and momentum to produce the jets that have been observed.
The study has been published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
