Catholic Central senior Teddi Jo Maslowski is a no-nonsense person.
She's rarely mad, but incredibly stubborn.
She's highly organized and is not fond of people who are lazy.
I wouldn't say her work ethic is the best in the world, but taking roll in that classroom doesn't take long.
She's got a great smile, loves to laugh, but will tear your heart out on the track.
She sports a 4.5 GPA and longs to do better.
Tell her she can't and she will - or try her best to do so. You want her on your side.
Yep, I'm a Teddi fan.
But, I am also a fan of any teenager who does things the right way with no excuses.
She makes no excuses and welcomes challenges.
She relishes competition.
It's not about winning all the time.
It's about the process.
It's about working hard, working on her start just one more time to shave .01 off her time.
It's about running hundreds of hurdles per practice.
It's about perfection in a sport where perfection is hard to come by.
That 42.61 could have been 42.57 if ...
She is a four-time Division III state champion with four more titles in her crosshairs in June.
The Burgettstown farm kid is the two-time defending state titleholder in the 100 hurdles. She also won the 300 hurdles in a meet and Division III state record time and teamed with Cassy Stevens, Katrina Vosteen and Margaret Beigel to grab the 4x200 relay crown. Stevens graduated, but Vosteen and Beigel are back.
Maslowski has a chance to stand in rarified air.
And even if she does, she'll still be Teddi.
She won't have her nose in the air or head in the clouds, she will still be grounded because she will still have chores to do on the farm with her brother Doug, whom she loves and adores.
When I talked to her last week she had about a zillion people to thank who have helped her along the way to signing a letter of intent to continue her academic and athletic careers at Duke University, where she will be a member of the track and field team and educate herself to be a pediatric oncologist.
Yet, when I wrote the story on her I choked.
I missed people who she thanked on record.
I missed the handoff.
So, here is the rest of the story.
"I want to thank Mrs. (Dolores) Michnowicz, my guidance counselor, because she helped me list all the decision factors going into this," said Maslowski. "She helped me get everything together for Harvard and everything for Duke. She was really on the ball in getting things done.
"I also want to thank Mr. and Mrs. Rine (Rick and Karen) of Rine Karate Studio because they've taught me self discipline and motivation that have helped me apply myself to track. There are a lot of aspects that go into sports that I've learned from them.
"I'm sure I would have still been driven and motivated, but being in karate with them has allowed me to see how much you can achieve and accomplish, especially with the black belt test standing in front of a board of advisors and you know how much you've worked to be in that position.
"You put 100 percent in, you get 100 percent out."
Why is it so easy for teenagers to make excuses?
Dear teens, we don't want your excuses. Just acknowledge the mistake and move forward.
Dear adults, teens don't want our excuses. Just acknowledge the mistake and move forward.
The Indian Creek girls basketball team has an opportunity to do something unique.
The Redskins are the only Class AAAA champions in the Wheeling Hospital Ohio Valley Athletic Conference Basketball Championships.
They have a chance to get back to the final for the fourth time when it hosts Wheeling Park tonight.
All you want is a chance and they have given themselves the opportunity.
The Hancock County Board of Education will approve the hiring of the Weir High football coach sometime soon.
It will be an interesting choice, to say the least.
The Madonna boys basketball team, ranked No. 4 in the West Virginia Class A ranks, visits Weir High, No. 8 in Class AA, Thursday for the city championship.
That, folks, will be a really good basketball game.
The Blue Dons are coming off a win over No. 3 Bishop Donahue, while the Red Riders have won seven in a row since a Jan. 4 loss to Indian Creek.
Before they meet, Madonna hosts Oak Glen and Weir High visits Brooke on Tuesday.
I didn't watch the halftime show Sunday, but early returns say I did not miss a thing.
Shocker there.
How about putting together 300 of the best musicians from college marching bands and let them entertain the crowd for 20 minutes?
It sure would be more entertaining.
Some of the Green Bay receivers allowed Braylon Edwards to invade their bodies.
Can the NFL please get someone to sing the national anthem quickly, correctly and respectfully?
Will Desmond Howard and Phil Simms please shut up?
Turnovers kill.
So much for taking the under in the Super Bowl.
Is it just me or did the Steelers look a bit confused on that fourth down? And, what is the reason for keeping a timeout in your back pocket? Wasn't that play kinda important?
Dearest Steelers fans. Don't give me the "We made it farther than your team." That is old and childish and tired.
Aaron Rodgers has as many Super Bowl wins as No. 4. Can Brett Favre now go away?
Say cheese!

The agreement will enable Neste Oil to purchase Cellana's algae oil for use as a feedstock in the future for producing renewable fuel. The deal is contingent on Cellana's future production capacity and on compliance with future biofuel legislation in the EU and US, among other factors.
Neste Oil, the world's largest producer of renewable diesel,
has signed a contingent commercial off-take agreement with
Cellana, a US-based algae biomass developer, the companies
announced on Friday.
The agreement will enable Neste Oil to purchase Cellana's algae
oil for use as a feedstock in the future for
producing renewable fuel.
The deal is contingent on Cellana's future production
capacity and on compliance with future biofuel legislation in the EU and
US, among other factors.
Cellana said it expects to be able to produce algae oil on a
commercial scale from late 2015 onwards. Based in Hawaii and
California, Cellana has almost a decade of experience in
growing oil-rich algae in its pilot- and demonstration-scale facilities in Hawaii using sea water
in its photo-bioreactors and open ponds.
Samples have shown that Cellana is able to produce algae oil
suitable for renewable fuel production by Neste Oil, according
to company officials.
"We want to support R&D efforts on new, sustainably
produced raw materials and increased production of algae oil,
which is one of the most interesting future alternatives in
this area," said Lars Peter Lindfors, senior vice
president of technology for
Neste Oil.
"Studies have already shown that algae oil can be used
successfully in our NExBTL process," he added. "The
off-take agreement with Cellana allows us access to
commercial-scale volumes of cost-competitive algae oil in the
future. This new agreement fits very well with our strategy
aimed at extending the range of feedstocks we use for
NExBTL renewable fuel."
The agreement between the companies is non-exclusive and allows
each to enter into additional agreements with other parties.
Neste Oil noted that it is also involved in university-led
algae research projects in Australia and the
Netherlands that are testing a range of methods for cultivating
algae outdoors.
Neste Oil says it is currently the world's only biofuel producer capable of refining premium-quality renewable
fuel from over 10 different feedstocks on an industrial
The company is also researching the use of agricultural and
forestry residues to produce microbial oil for feedstock purposes at a new pilot
plant at Neste Oil's technology center in Porvoo,

LS,Algae growing is a way of harvesting solar energy in a chemical form using mainly CO2 and H2O as the main reagents. Although algea are much more efficient in capturing solar energy than normal plants, overall efficiency isl imited to a few [%]. In future, a much higher efficiency (> 30-35 [%]) could be attained by using high temperature CSP technology for production of hydrocarbons and petrochemicals from CO2 and H2O. A promising technology seems to be the so-called CORC (CO2 reversed combustion) technology being developped by the Weizmann Institute in Isreal.Best Regards,Enssim Software,Han Raas

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

Serbia Travel Information
- Serbia in a motorhome
- Safety concerns in Serbia
- Got a question or comment about Serbia? Ask a Travel Expert!
The Basics
Local time is GMT +2 (March to September); GMT +1 (October to February).
Electrical current is 220/230 volts, 50Hz. Two-prong round pin attachment plugs as well as Schuko plugs are in use.
Serbian is the official language.
Travel Health
Recommended vaccinations for visitors to Serbia are Hepatitis A and typhoid (except for very short-term visitors who restrict their meals to major restaurants and hotels). A reciprocal health care agreement entitles British nationals to free emergency treatment in Serbia, but comprehensive travel health insurance is strongly recommended for all visitors because of the very basic level of medical facilities. Cases of rabid foxes and dogs have been reported in parks and the outskirts of major cities. Tap water and unbottled beverages should not be consumed, and food should be well prepared and well cooked. In the countryside precautions should be taken against tick infestation.
Tipping is not obligatory in Serbian restaurants, but if you are satisfied with the service then leave a 10 to 15% tip. At bars and with taxis leave a tip by rounding off the amount.
Safety Information
Political tensions in Serbia have risen sharply since July 2011, meaning unrest in areas like Kosovo and Belgrade is likely. Travellers are advised to keep informed of current events and avoid large gatherings. Those travelling to the south and UN-administered Kosovo are advised to check the local situation before departing. Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in February 2008, a move that has been recognised by almost 40 countries including the US and most of the EU, but has been opposed by Serbia as an 'illegal act'. Street crime is common in the larger cities so it is wise to take sensible precautions with valuables.
Local Customs
It is inadvisable to take photographs of any military or police buildings or operations in Serbia or Kosovo. Homosexuality is tolerated but open displays of affection between same-sex couples are frowned upon. Visitors should carry their passports at all times for identification purposes.
Serbian business people and entrepreneurs are westernised in their approach and dealings with visitors. Keep in mind that operations can go slowly due to cumbersome bureaucracy. Most Serbian businessmen speak English so it is not always necessary to hire a translator or translate business card. July and August are summer holidays and it is difficult to reach senior management during this period. Business hours are 8am to 4pm Monday to Friday.
The international direct dialling code for Serbia is +381. The international code for dialling out of Serbia is 00 followed by the relevant country code (0044 for the United Kingdom). There are local area codes in use e.g. (0)11 for Belgrade. There are GSM 900/1800 mobile networks available with good coverage in the cities, weaker in the southern areas of the country. Internet cafes are available in the main cities and towns.
Duty Free
Visitors entering Serbia may bring the following goods without paying customs duty: 200 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250g tobacco; 1 litre of alcohol; a reasonable quantity of perfume for personal use; two still cameras, one movie camera and one video camera; sporting, camping and electronic equipment for personal use (one item of each); and personal clothing and jewellery.

Is there an equivalent to the french idiom
Jeter l'argent par la fenêtre
which means throwing money through a window? (I'm not sure about the translation, especially through.)
Is there an equivalent to the french idiom
which means throwing money through a window? (I'm not sure about the translation, especially through.)
The most commonly-used equivalent English phrase is:
I have often heard other American English speakers say, "that's just like throwing [or tossing] money out the window" when referring to someone wasting time or resources (eg - not closing a door in winter), or buying unnecessary items or services. I don't remember the last time I heard this phrase said, but don't believe that this english idiom has gone out of use. I am 55, and idioms - like slang - do go out of favor over time and/or enter regular use after people hear the popular actors or celebrities of the day say them on TV or in the movies, hear popular singers use them in song lyrics, or see or hear them used in current books, media or advertisements.
A slightly more "colourful" version is to flush your money down the toilet.
See http://www.google.com.au/search?q=flushing+money+down+the+toilet
There are so many that have similar meanings. Here's one about money and a train:

This is all good news but WHERE'S THE FUCKING MULTI-TEAM
I thought it was sad the other day when I was looking through all the options on Blops2 and even they have a multi-team playlist. Get your shit together Halo.
It's the only blemish I have with the game right now, lack of "party" gametypes like mutli-team.
This games unplayable, I mean I sliced my finger open and can't play a shooter till this weekend really.
Why slice your finger dawg?
I wanted to hurt myself after camping during an online match.
Good call. Camping is for bitches.
You should have taken off your pinky instead.
Spartan Ops episodes 6-10 are free as of right now, it's a 2.21GB download.
Are those included in the season pass?
They might be I don't know, it's coming up free to me but I do have the pass.
It's free to everyone.
It's separate from the pass. I just added 'em to my queue for free on Xbox.com, you need to be in-game to get the free-by-way-of-pass deal.
The Forge Community Test playlist is pretty solid. I can't wait for some of these smaller maps to make it into the other playlists so I don't have to vote for Haven every time. Simplex is my favorite so far. It's totally symmetrical and has a very H1/H2 vibe to its architecture.

WHEELING - Wheeling Hospital's Center for Pediatrics continues to grow with the goal of providing new services and doctors previously not available here at home.
Ron Violi, Wheeling Hospital chief executive officer, said the hospital's drive is to provide services that allow families to get treatment without having to leave the area.
''Our commitment to the community is to provide to the community what it needs. We believe that's the central driver. That's why we started with pediatrics and ob/gyn because those were areas where we had people leaving the area,'' Violi said.

Brandon D'Accione listens to his toy dog's heartbeat while Dr. Evelyn Nartatez-Serag waits for the results. Each year, a number of pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students attend Wheeling Hospital's Well Doll Clinic.
''Our pediatric center - we have people coming from all over. Our autism center is the envy of the world. It's great, it's absolutely great some of the stuff we're doing. We have the only pediatric surgeon (Dr. Indranil Sau) in the region. He's internationally renown.
''We have pediatric endocrinologists - you can't find them. We have pediatric psychiatrists - they are hard to get. Nationally, most hospitals don't have them,'' he added.
He noted the hospital now can handle high-risk pregnancies, as Dr. Ronald Thomas, an obstetrician-gynecologist with subspecialty training in maternal-fetal medicine, is now a member of the team. Before women had to receive such care in Columbus, Pittsburgh or Cleveland.
The center also offers a variety of specialists to treat infants, children and adolescents. And with its partnership with Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC, parents can now obtain services for their children such as pediatric cardiology, general and thoracic surgery, otolaryngology, neurology and hematology/oncology services.
The components of the center include: primary care pediatrics; pediatric subspecialty care, including endocrinology; specialized hospital care for children; pediatric rehabilitation services include occupational, physical, speech and autism spectrum disorders therapy; psychiatric services for children and adolescents; wellness services, such as exercise and diet programs, geared especially toward youth through the Howard Long Wellness Center; coordination with community services, such as West Virginia Birth to Three, Ohio Help Me Grow, Reach Out and Read and Catholic Charities.
At East Ohio Regional Hospital in Martins Ferry, the Birthplace continues to incorporate its "Baby Friendly, Healthy Goals" initiative that strongly encourages breastfeeding for all new moms and creates a bonding atmosphere for mothers and babies who now spend 23 hours a day together following delivery.
The BirthPlace staffers at both East Ohio and Ohio Valley Medical Center undergo at least 20 hours of instruction to be able to meet the "Baby Friendly-Healthy Goals" designation. The initiative is designed to give babies a healthy start in life and help prevent childhood obesity. Obstetric staffs are cross trained so that they can work at either hospital if the need arises.
That training also transcends to every department of the hospital so if a nursing mom comes into the emergency room or needs surgery, her specific needs and requirements are met.
At OVMC, the maternity floor continues to maintain a traditional nursery for the newborns while at EORH, babies remain in their mothers' rooms for most of their stay. And in those first few days, mothers are given personalized instructions on caring for their babies, themselves and even the rest of the family before heading home with their newborns.
At Wheeling Hospital, the birth of a baby is announced over the intercom shortly after his or her arrival. A lovely chime followed by a message welcoming the newborn is shared by everyone at the hospital. After all, giving birth requires teamwork.
At Reynolds Memorial Hospital in Glen Dale, the New Generation Birth Center sees an average of 15 births per month or between 120 and 150 births each year.
While routine deliveries are the goal at Reynolds, the hospital sees a fair share of high risk, indigent pregnant women who can present problems when delivering their babies.

In my recent question I asked about a proof for the fact that the dual of a dual graph imbedding is equal to the original graph. Thinking about this a little more leads me to wonder why graph imbeddings are defined using rotation systems at all.
It seems that the natural thing to do, if one is asked to precisely define a graph imbedding, is the more geometric approach of imbedding edges as simple curves on a pre-existing surface. Indeed, this is just an abstraction of what one is doing when they draw a graph on a sheet of paper. The other attractive feature of defining imbeddings this way is that it is possible to construct imbeddings where the faces are not all 2-cells, by contrast with the rotation system definition. The downside of this approach is that there are some subtleties in defining the dual graph, as this picture shows: the imbedding on the right fails to have $G^{**} = G$.
On the other hand, it really is easy to show rigorously that the dual graph construction using rotation systems has the property $G^{**} = G$ for an imbedded graph $G$. Is this why combinatorialists usually define graph imbeddings this way? Or are there deeper reasons to avoid the geometric approach?

Bamboo is a group of woody perennial evergreen plants of the grass family. Some of its members are giant bamboo, forming by far the largest members of the grass family. Bamboo is the fastest growing woody plant in the world: up to three to four feet a day. This accelerated growth rate allows bamboo to be harvested in three to five years, far more often than the 10 to 20 year harvest cycle of most softwoods. Unlike the environmental damage caused by the deforestation of trees, proper harvesting of bamboo leaves the root system intact, creating little or no topsoil disruption. This renewable, sustainable resource produces 35% more oxygen than its equivalent in tress while reducing carbon dioxide gas that is blamed for global warming. With the tensile strength of steel, it's the strongest growing woody plant in the world.

Tower a beacon for nighthawks
|A common nighthawk. Credit: Julian Hough
The best source of information is an email list serve, CTBirds, sponsored by the Connecticut Ornithological Association. Birders throughout the state post emails outlining their sightings every day. All you have to do is subscribe (see www.ctbirding.org) and the emails start to roll in.
That's why I was out in the Republican-American parking lot at about 9 p.m. on Monday. I'd seen an email from Dave Lawton, a Hartford area birder, who'd seen his first southbound nighthawk of the season a bit over an hour earlier in Avon.
The paper's parking lot is my go-to spot for common nighthawks during migration. They're drawn to our lighted tower, which attracts moths and other night-flying insects.
Nighthawks aren't really hawks. They belong to a family of insect-eating night birds known as caprimulgids. For strange, folkloric reasons, this group is referred to commonly as goatsuckers. The other member in our region is the eastern whip-poor-will.
My trip to the parking lot proved fruitful. I was hardly out the door when I saw the fluttering, long-winged shape of a nighthawk circle the tower. I watched it for several minutes as it disappeared outside the reach of the lights and then returned, time after time. It was still at it, showing off the white flashes in its wings, when I went inside.
I only saw one, but as the migration picks up steam over the next few weeks, there should be nights when I have a hard time making an accurate count of multiple birds entering and leaving the lighted area.
When I first moved to Waterbury, a small urban population nested in the city. Nighthawks are ground nesters, and long ago they adapted to nesting on flat, gravel-covered rooftops in cities. For a variety of reasons, which probably include changes in roof materials and an increase in urban predators such as crows and some hawks, these city populations have been on the decline.
I haven't heard any of their nasal flight calls during June and July for a number of years.
The nighthawks still stage some substantial migratory flights though, and now is the time to start looking for them in late afternoon and early evening. Movements of several hundred at a time still occur in Connecticut.

Astral is a spirit from another part of existence and he can only be seen and heard by Yuma. This spirit is lives in Yuma's Emperor Key which is how Yuma is always able to access him and vise versa. Drawing Astral will be easier than drawing Yuma because he is a lot less detailed than Yuma. Either way you will have fun so make sure to leave some feedback as to what you think of the lesson, and of the series. Peace out people I will be back soon.

When you cook with wine or spirits, when does the alcohol cook away? Obviously high temperatures will do it, but how low of temperatures will work? Also, does it vary by the type of alcohol?
You will never fully cook away alcohol, only reduce the amount. See Alcohol retention in food preparation, or for the quick table, see wikipedia.
They covered this on an episode of America's Test Kitchen, and concluded that surface area matters -- a wider vessel would cook off more alcohol; it wasn't just a function of time.
A study conducted by the US Department of Agriculture's Nutrient Data Laboratory calculated the percentage of alcohol remaining in a dish based on various cooking methods. The results are as follows:
Preparation Method and Percent of Alcohol Retained
These data come from the USDA Table of Nutrient Retention Factors Release 6 [PDF]. The information is in the table on page 12 of the document (page 14 of the PDF file). In case that link goes dead (sorry that the screenshot is somewhat small).
If you add alcohol, some alcohol will remain indefinitely (or at least as long as the food is not a lump of smoking carbon). The proportion of alcohol to water-based liquids will shrink over time, however. (I'm assuming heat here: if there is no heat, or high pressure, then the proportion will remain stable for quite a while).
Alcohol evaporates at about three times rate of water (or to be more precise, the latent heat of evaporation for Ethanol is at 846(kJ/kg) vs water which is at 2257(kJ/kg)) but this relation doesn't hold for the proportion that will be found in your food due to atmospheric pressure and air saturation and exposed surface area...It's actually extraordinarily difficult to work out.
Roughly speaking, though, if you reduce your liquid volume you're burning off alcohol at a higher rate than water. So things that are reduced substantially will have proportionately less alcohol in them, than things that are not (all other factors being equal).
Typically when you're "cooking" with alcohol it's as a sauce or a glaze, both of which require fairly high temperatures and would typically be done in a pan on the stove or in the oven.
As you go lower with the temperature it's going to become more of a mixed result. Some amount of the alcohol (say, the part closest to the heat source) will burn off, but some will remain.
Without more specific information about what you're trying to cook and/or accomplish it's hard to say what will work for your situation.
According to Wikipedia ethanol (which is the alcohol in wine or spirits) boils at 78.4 °C.
Assuming that the ethanol hasn't made a chemical connection with something in the alcohol or food, cooking at 78.4 °C for a 'sufficient' period of time, should remove any trace of ethanol.
It is important to note that the table accompanying the USDA Table of Nutrient Retention Factors Release 6 December 2007 lists a amazing number of foods--all have 100% Ethanol retention levels for the listed food item and cooking method.
Only ALC Beverages listed and simmered as described on page 12 of the table (items with Retention Codes 5001 through 5010) have the decreasing retention percentages listed by BobMcGee and merl.
I had long assumed sufficient heat of sautéing, frying or baking removed most if not all ethanol. I am astonished to discover otherwise.
If the sauce/soup/etc is above the boiling point of ethanol (about 173 F or 78.4 °C) the ethanol will boil out almost immediately. It can't remain in solution at temps above the point where it becomes a gas.
The other flavors, sugars and spices and all, will remain. Ethanol can't remain a liquid at 212 F or 100 C - physically not possible.
I don't care what Wiki says in this case. Moments after passing 173 degrees, all the ethanol evaporates from the solution, it has to.

One of the songs that is sung Friday night is Koh Ribon. There is not a single mention of Shabbos in it. Why do we sing it on Shabbos?

It speaks of the created world and praising HaShem for it i.e. G-d the Master of all Worlds, You are the Ruler, above all rulers. Your mighty deeds and wonders, it is beautiful to declare before You. I will sing Your praises in the morning and the evenings, to You Holy G-d Who created every soul, the angels above, all people, and the beasts that roam the grounds and the birds of the sky. Translation from here where there is a catchy recording.
There is not a single mention of Shabbos in Koh Ribon...
...or Tzur Mishelo, or Kel Adon, or the special Kedushas on Shabbat morning, or the extra psalms in P'sukei D'zimra, or the deluxe version of taking out the Torah.
Shabbos is just a very special day! It has the special mitzvot of Kavod and Oneg. Not everything has to announce its connection to Shabbos. Just spending a little more time eating, davening, and singing is also an honor and a pleasure.
What is Shabbat if not the proclamation that Gd is the Master of the world?
I'm gonna just guess - Zecher LeMa'aseh Bereishith/Zecher LiYtziath Mitzrayim. Sorry I don't have the freedom to look up sources on this at work.

So I went to Install Ubuntu 12 on my toshiba laptop. I accidently resized my windows 7 partition to 60 GB and Gave Ubuntu 241 GB of Space. I wanted to Have Ubuntu as 60gb and Have the Remaining space for windows 7. How Can I fix the Mistake I made?
You can use resize2fs command to a ext4 filesystem, even if it's your root partition:
Here you find a tutorial step by step!
I recommend to get a live cd/usb of ubuntu or gparted bootable media.
Below are steps for ubuntu live disk
Here is a tutorial for it using gparted iso. The steps are identical.
"... my windows 7 c:/ folder still only says 60 gb and [I] am unable to extend my
It is possible that the 241 (or so) GB of unused free space is part of an Extended (or logical) partition. (Or vice-versa, Windows could be in a logical partition and the free space is outside and can't be used.
Either way this would prevent you from using the unallocated space to expand your Windows partition.
I would prefer to know what your current partitions are before suggesting how to modify them.
One possible way to provide this information would be to use a tool name
I tried to describe how to do this in this answer to another question.
If you use my suggestion above, please be sure to remember the URL of the pastebin and to add it to your question.

Rated 2 out of 5 by LeslieP Beautiful fashion, flawed function This tote is beautiful and the leather is so soft. However, I bought it based on the the description noting it could carry everything including a laptop. You can put lots in it but the thin straps cut into your shoulder and it has no shape when you set it down. Lovely but it's just hanging in the closet. March 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by SoCalgirl Love this tote! I absolutely love this tote! It's lightweight, roomy, and best of all good looking. The Amanda Easy tote is the perfect tote that can be used as a travel tote or a work tote. The bag is very roomy and can hold a lot of items. My only gripe is the lack of structure which I easily fixed with a large handbag organizer. I am very happy with my purchase! October 20, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by ktburns Lightweight carryall I purchased the Amanda Easy Tote in black and love the soft leather and lightweight feel. I currently carry the Robinson medium satchel and compared to that, this bag is much lighter despite its larger size. This bag is not structured and slouches when the majority of your items are placed in the middle of the bag. It's a great size for a tote/carry on/teacher bag but a bit on the large side for an everyday purse. Overall I'm pleased with this purchase! September 14, 2013

I am in the process of acquiring a bike trainer (likely CycleOps Fluid 2) for winter conditioning. Most of the reviews and other information I have read suggestion that a regular road tire will be damaged or quickly worn out on a trainer. What type of tires or specific models/brands should I look for use on a trainer? Should I get a different rear wheel/tire that I change out during the winter conditioning season?

To make it easier on myself I purchased a cheap wheel on eBay and added a trainer specific tire such as the Continental Ultra Sport Hometrainer Tire. When I used regular road tires, the rubber wore out quickly. The trainer specific tire lasts much longer.
You do not want to run the trainer specific tire on the roads. So having a spare wheel with cassette makes it easier to put on your normal wheel for those nice winter days.
I use worn road tires that I've taken off my road bike.Ask your friends to save theirs.The slicker the tire (most worn least tread=less noise) the better.If they only last a month that is only two or three changes per winter.The plus is they are free and its better for the enviroment.
I've used both regular road tires and the newer style trainer tires over the last 10 years and have gone through 4 different turbo trainers over the time including actually carving a half centimetre tire size groove into a Tacx Cycleforce-One trainer.
I tend to find that with trainer tires the colder running rubber actually slips on a metal roller while putting in hard efforts and sprint efforts. You really have to ask yourself the question- Do you need a specific tyre for indoor cycling training?
I've found that a relatively inexpensive road tire provides a better adhesion to the roller for a more responsive training session for sprints.
I've never personally got on with the trainer tires and know a large number of riders who have bought a trainer tire, only to place it on eBay a number of months later and revert to traditional road tires.
A regular road tire will work fine, but you should keep it inflated and not press the roller bar up against it overly hard. But there is no disadvantage to getting a really cheap tire and using it on the trainer -- it will work just as good as an expensive racing tire.
Either a cheap road tire, or some manufacturers sell a trainer specific tire. Very smooth, hard and easy to get on and off. These will last 2 - 4x longer than just a cheap tire.

Blue Moon: Significance
- 09 March 2011 15:48
- Posted by Emily Brobyn
Club anthems resonate throughout football: 'You'll Never Walk Alone', 'I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles' and, of course, our own 'Blue Moon'. But what's the story behind the song?
How did those iconic lyrics become etched into so many City fans' subconscious?
This was a time when clubs started to adopt new songs on the then-terraces, rather than chants. Songs like 'Delilah' and 'Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life' are two that did stick around for a while, with 'Delilah' now remaining as Stoke City's anthem of choice.
'Blue Moon' was originally sung by Crewe Alexandra's fans. It was only during the past couple of decades that the Blues adopted it and made it their own. City historical expert Gary James remembers the first time he heard it.
"The first time I can ever recall it being sung was at the opening game of the 1989-90 season at Liverpool," he said. "It had never been sung by fans during the seasons before that.
"At Anfield, City fans were kept behind for a while after the match and a few lads started singing it as we started to make our way out. They sang a sort of melancholic version, but it caught on.
"At that time I was doing research for various bits of writing, and recognised that this was unusual - there were plenty of other chants or songs that could have been sung instead.
"People have talked about this to me over the years and most of us share the same memory," he commented. "Only a few lads were singing it as we came out - two appeared to be singing it to each other, which was quite funny.
"People will talk about Howard Kendall's arrival and other stuff that happened later in the season, but it was the Liverpool match when it was first sung. During that season it grew game after game, and by the time Niall Quinn joined the club it had become our anthem.
I don't know the names of the lads who first sang it at Anfield, but I do know they were regulars. I used to see them at away games
Different versions of 'Blue Moon', by Doves, Supra, The Marcels and Sha Na Na, are played regularly at the City of Manchester Stadium throughout the course of a season.
But undoubtedly the best and most popular version is when the chorus of Blues raise their arms in the air, hold their scarves aloft and sing the lyrics with all their heart during the 90 minutes of a game.
It's a spine-tingling, compelling demonstration of support and loyalty for the club. Who knows what other versions of 'Blue Moon' will lie ahead, but long may the anthem continue.
Gary James' book "Manchester: A Football History" is still available from the City Store, for more information: www.manchesterfootball.org

I know Melanoidin Malt can be used as a substitute for decoction mashing, provides the richness expected in certain styles, and may improve red or brown color. So at what percentages does the malt achieve these results?
First of all, in order to think that melanoidin is a sub for decoction you have to believe that decoction has an impact on flavor. My own experiments, as well as those of others, do not support that. Melanoidin will boost the maltiness of the beer in a kind of sweet, fruity manner, as well as have an impact on flavor as you describe. Too much of it will make a beer taste off, almost with an oxidized caramel flavor. I would say keep its use well under 10% of your total grist. If you you haven't used it before, start at 5% and see what you think.
Five percent of your grain bill is generally a good starting point for Melanoidin Malt contribution. Be cautious using more, as Melanoidin Malt has a very powerful and distinct flavor.
I think I've also seen a comparison somewhere on the internet between decoction mashing and Melanoidin Malt, so maybe Denny will weigh in on this one...

How common is anthrax?
Anthrax is now rare in humans in the United States and developed countries. It still occurs today, largely in countries lacking public-health regulations that prevent exposure to infected goats, cattle, sheep, and horses and their products. In the last few years, there have been rare cases of anthrax in people exposed to imported animal hides used to make drums. Drum players, drum makers, and their family members have been infected in this way. The major concern for those of us in western countries (who don't play drums) is the use of anthrax as an agent of biological warfare.
How long is the incubation period with anthrax?
The incubation period (the period between contact with anthrax and the start of symptoms) may be relatively short, from one to five days. Like other infectious diseases, the incubation period for anthrax is quite variable and it may be weeks before an infected individual feels sick.
What kinds of diseases does anthrax cause?
There are three forms of disease caused by anthrax: cutaneous (skin) anthrax, inhalation anthrax, and gastrointestinal (bowel) anthrax.
Cutaneous anthrax
The cutaneous (skin) form of anthrax starts as a red-brown raised spot that enlarges with considerable redness around it, blistering, and hardening. The center of the spot then shows an ulcer crater with blood-tinged drainage and the formation of a black crust called an eschar. There are swollen glands (lymph nodes) in the area. Symptoms include muscle aches and pain, headache, fever, nausea, and vomiting. The illness usually resolves in about six weeks, but deaths may occur if patients do not receive appropriate antibiotics.
Inhalation anthrax
The first symptoms are subtle, gradual and flu-like (influenza). In a few days, however, the illness worsens and there may be severe respiratory distress. Shock, coma, and death follow. Inhalation anthrax does not cause a true pneumonia. In fact, the spores get picked in the lungs up by scavenger cells called macrophages. Most of the spores are killed. Unfortunately, some survive and are transported to glands in the chest called lymph nodes. In the lymph nodes, the spores that survive multiply, produce deadly toxins, and spread throughout the body. Severe hemorrhage and tissue death (necrosis) occurs in these lymph nodes in the chest. From there, the disease spreads to the adjacent lungs and the rest of the body. Inhalation anthrax is a very serious disease, and unfortunately, most affected individuals will die even if they get appropriate antibiotics. Why is this so? The antibiotics are effective in killing the bacteria, but they do not destroy the deadly toxins that have already been released by the anthrax bacteria.
Gastrointestinal anthrax
Now rare, anthrax of the bowels (gastrointestinal anthrax) is the result of eating undercooked, contaminated meat. The symptoms of this form of anthrax include nausea, loss of appetite, bloody diarrhea and fever followed by abdominal pain. The bacteria invade through the bowel wall. Then the infection spreads throughout the body through the bloodstream (septicemia) with deadly toxicity.

Say the 24th is a Monday and you say that you'll be doing something the weekend of the 24th, meaning the 22nd and 23rd. Isn't that incorrect? I would say the weekend of the 24th means the 29th and 30th.

I'd argue that in the given month, the 'weekend of the 24th' is a misnomer; Monday is not normally a weekend day at all. Friday evening (the 21st of the given month) might just be counted as part of the weekend. And if it is a holiday weekend, then Monday might scrape as part of the long weekend, but normally, you would only reference a date that is part of the weekend.
Personally, I would not talk about the weekend of the 24th:
16 17 18 19 20 21 22
23 24 25 26 27 28 29
30 31
I would say the weekend of the 22nd or 23rd.
Also the weekend of the 29th or 30th.
The week of the 24th has weekend days of the 23rd and 29th, those are the days that are on the ends of the week that contains the date of the 24th.
Specificity is best practice. As a speaker and writer of English, I'd say and write "weekend of Saturday (or Sunday) the __" to be as specific as possible.
However, I'm also a person who hears and reads a good deal of English. I'd assume that "the weekend of Monday the __" means the one in 5-6 days, and so on with other days of the week, unless it's obvious otherwise. I consider it likely that you'll run into the ambiguous usages, so take care to be on the same page.
It's a contextual (and therefore ambiguous) expression if you give a date outside the weekend. Barring even different calendar schemes (Chinese, Arabic, and Jewish Lunar calendars, for example), it's poor, but common, practice.

5 Cryptic Movie Tattoos (They Didn't Think We'd Translate)
#2. Viggo Mortensen's Gangster Movie Tattoo Renders the Plot Moot
In Eastern Promises, Nikolai (Viggo Mortensen) is an undercover cop posing as a tattooed driver and body disposer for the Russian mafia in London. In both the film and reality, a Russian prison tattoo is an elaborate code that tells one's entire criminal history. The film depicts Nikolai's rise from a lowly errand boy to the boss of the mob, which doesn't make a lot of sense, considering ...
What the Tattoos Really Say:
... his tattoos identify him as the boss of the mob right from the beginning, which should probably have gotten him murdered for his gall and ignorance as soon as he took his shirt off with someone else in the room.
"Yeah, you're cute. We'll keep you if you do a little dance for us."
In the creation of Eastern Promises, director David Cronenberg said his team consulted a documentary on Russian prison tattoos called The Mark of Cain. From this documentary, we learn just about everything we need to know to read Nikolai's criminal history. For example, the church cupolas on Nikolai's back signify the number of convictions he has:
"Those GBH incidents are Pope-approved."
And a skull he has is like this guy's, and he says it means he's been convicted of murder:
Russian mob guys have a lot of respect for fat goths.
But what about that giant crucifix on his chest, the centerpiece of the entire ink ensemble? According to the guy in the documentary, it means he is a "Thief-in-the-Law," which in Russian mob slang makes him basically the Godfather of the Russian mafia. That should be news to the panel of mob bosses who employ him as a lowly chauffeur who snips the fingers off of dead bodies. How did they miss that one?
As if that wasn't bad enough, Nikolai has another, even more ill-advised tattoo that can be seen here when they do a close-up on his wrist as he's stabbing the shit out of some guy.
What could be worse than falsely pulling rank on a panel of mob bosses in a closed room? The phrase on his wrist reads "Don't trust, don't fear, don't ask." What's that mean? Not much, except it's the title of a pop song by Russian pop duo t.A.T.u.
There's nothing wrong with showing your love for fake lesbians.
#1. In Legion, God Is Bad at Meaningful Tattoos
In Legion, God grows tired of mankind's warring and decides, for some reason seemingly against His usual values, to abort some lady's baby. The Archangel Michael, who still has hope for humanity, has to fight off hordes of baby-killing angels using submachine guns to make some kind of point to God.
"I'm gonna beat some peace into you, human."
We're not going to pretend that the details of the plot make a whole lot of sense, but the point is that God and Michael's entire beef with humanity is that we just keep invading each other's countries and stealing each other's land, and God is sick of it. Michael's body is covered in mystical angel tattoos written in a made-up angel language called Enochian that he says are instructions for the baby's protector.
What the Tattoos Really Say:
Unsurprisingly, Michael has Bible passages written on his chest. But oddly, given the circumstances, it's a part of the Bible where God is killing some dudes for not killing enough people or stealing enough land.
It also provides instructions on how to put a shirt on over wings.
The tattoos are in a made-up language, but it's also one that's really easy to decode. The code first appears in the title sequence scrawled across the letters of the title, and here we can see that the so-called celestial language of the angels is just English with a basic character substitution, reading backward from bottom to top.
The text in the title is apparently supposed to be a quote from Psalms 34:11, "Come, ye children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of the Lord." Actually, due to a bad cut-and-paste job from the graphics department, it actually says, "Children come ye child will teach I will the fear of the you the fear," which does kind of confuse the message.
So what about Michael's tats? They're not actually instructions on how to protect a baby, as Michael said they were. They don't so much as tell him how to change a diaper. It actually reads, "For indeed the hand of the Lord was against them, to destroy them from among the host, until they were consumed." It's Deuteronomy 2:15 from the American King James Bible. Because everyone knows the real Bible is American.
"And verily the car did explode, and Moses walked away with nary a backward glance, for he was badass."
This passage says that God smote some of Moses' men for not invading the Holy Land as commanded. And it's actually the exact opposite of what Michael said humanity needed. In fact, Michael says specifically in the movie, "My love, my hope for mankind, was no less than His. But I have watched you trample that gift. I have watched you kill each other over race and greed ... waging war over dust and rubble and the words in old books." Yup, Michael is all New Testament and shit. He's all about love, not war, which is strange coming from a guy whose neck tattoo reads "BURN."
"-ing love. I'm a massive Elvis fan."

I heard the expression "llava" / "ya va" (?) being used in Venezuelan Spanish. It seems to have the meaning of "wait a moment", but my Mexican friend don't understand it.
Does anyone who know what this word means and how to spell it?
I heard the expression "llava" / "ya va" (?) being used in Venezuelan Spanish. It seems to have the meaning of "wait a moment", but my Mexican friend don't understand it.
Does anyone who know what this word means and how to spell it?
Ya va is also used in Argentina to tell the other person to wait for a moment. Some possible translations would be:
...plus other similar variations, and which one to use will probably depend on the context.
To add to @Eduardo's answer, note that ya va is an informal, colloquial way of asking another person to wait for a moment, so I guess that (possibly) closer translations would be more in the lines of just a sec or wait a mo' (for spoken and written language).
Literal translation is
A similar expression is
Two meaning shift has occurred. The first is a meaning shift in the intension. If you're asked to come to a place, your answer "I'm already coming" has an implicit "Wait for me!". This way, the phrases
Secondly, the third person singular has become such a fixed phrase that it is used for any person or situation, including the first person.
So when you request something to someone,
Ya voy or ya va...as in English "coming!" Like when mom/dad says "let's go" a proper reply to someone you are that familiar with, as in mom/dad, would be "ya voy!" or "ya va!" The difference... "ya voy" "I'm coming"; "ya va" ... "he/she/it is coming".
However, I've also used "ya va" in the sense of "here it comes". When you know somebody is about to do something typical/expected... "look, here it comes"..."mira (look), ya va (here it comes).
For example... Joe you're up on the batting cage, "ya voy".
As Cadenza says, it is very generic Spanish. We use it in Puerto Rico as well. Check the uses of the verb at http://www.rae.es it is the official site for the Spanish language or the Spanish (language) Royal Academy (REAL ACADEMIA ESPAÑOLA)
El lenguaje español derivado del castellano tan influenciado por los moros y los judíos, tienen infinidad de posibilidades en el léxico heredado es este idioma. Cuando decimos: Ojala, nos estamos haciendo eco de raíces árabes "oh, Ala permita". Cuando en las iglesias cantan, Aleluya del judaísmo "Alabemos a Ja" o alabemos a YA", "Ja" o "Ya" es derivado del nombre de Dios usado como Yahvé o Jehová, nombre de Dios revelado a Moises, y cuyo significado para los estudiosos del significado dinámico y creativo es "Dios hace o hará que llegue a ser" más bien que la definición pasiva "Yo soy el que soy". Por lo tanto, entendiendolo "algo que se desea Dios puede hacer que llegue a ser",esta raíz lingüística: "Ya va" puede que se derive de esa expresión.

Making parsley turn in boxes or "the putting green" as it is commonly referred to as is time consuming to say the least. First you have to find parsley no easy task sometimes. You need to find parsley that is all the same shade of green – and that looks alike. You may decide to do a combo lettuce and parsley box or straight up lettuce the choice is yours! I personally do parsley boxes 100% of the time. Our team is small – just my husband and I and the occasional friend that shows up. This task always falls on my lap. I have had many a night where myself and a few friends have had parsley parties working on the 4 turn in boxes for an hour or more. . However I have begun to get into the habit of doing them at home prior to a contest and transferring them on site. I first saw a version of this on the Pickled Pig Forum. This is how I do it.
Start with 4 turn in boxes and label them for each category – depending on how you present your food you may want a box that is fuller and or lower in height with the parsley.
Wash and rinse your parsley thoroughly. Parsley is grown in super moist soil and it can be very gritty when you purchase it.
For 4 boxes I will use anywhere from 12- 18 heads of parsley depending on the size and quality. If you are attending a contest with friends consider splitting the cost of a case. I place my parsley in a bin with a couple inches of water at the bottom to keep it moist and hydrated. IF you are keeping the parsley in your fridge for a couple of days make sure to change out the water.
For those teams travelling to the US from Canada – I suggest you buy only US parsley. We have never had a problem at the border. I keep a couple of the tags from the parsley to show it is a US product. This parsley is from Lil' Bear Produce grown in Edinburg, Texas.
You will need heavy duty plastic wrap for this. – This stuff doesn't stick to itself as much as a regular use plastic wrap. It is also much stronger.
Line a turn in box with plastic wrap leaving enough on each side to completely cover the turn in box.
Build your parsley box. For great instructions step by step you can visit the BBQ Brethren website. I skip the base of lettuce and just pack in a lot of parsley. (Thanks to Kim Groneman from Smoke on Wheels for teaching me this great tip!)
When you are all done and complete spritz with water.
Layer on damp paper towels and then the excess plastic wrap from the sides.
Place in fridge until you are ready to transport to a competition. I have done this 4 days in advance and as long as the parsley is fresh and the fridge is cold- it keeps just fine. A tip – each day ensure the paper towels are still moist. Not dripping just moist.
When you arrive on site and receive your real turn in boxes its time to transfer the parsley.. First spritz the plastic wrap with a bit of water to make the parsley slide easier.
Lift up one side and place your hand over the parsley.
Slide it all in. Make sure your plastic wrap is laying out smoothly to make the transfer easily.
Adjust any stray pieces and you are done. Cocktail time!

Rolling out in hybrid, plug-in hybrid and fully electric variants, Hyundai's new green car platform takes on everything from the Prius to the Leaf.
GM is handing out job offers along with cash prizes to students participating in the EcoCar2 competition.
Students from Virginia Tech University this week garnered first place in the EcoCAR: The NeXt Challenge with the team's extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) using E85 (ethanol).
A team of students from Wayne State University's College of Engineering will participate in EcoCar 2: Plugging in to the Future.
Company plans a new plug-in hybrid by 2015 as part of a strategy based on environmental auto technologies and corporate sustainability strategy.
On May 20, I visited GM's Desert Proving grounds in Yuma, Arizona as the teams prepared to test their vehicles in the second stage of the competition. Seeing these modified SUVs in various stages of undress and watching students racing to troubleshoot and reassemble their vehicles like young NASCAR pit teams, I quickly realized that my college experience was a waste of time.
At the EcoCar Challenge, held at GM's Desert Proving grounds in Yuma, Arizona, 16 university teams competed for more than $100,000 in cash and prizes to convert a Saturn Vue 2-Mode Hybrid into an even greener machine. To improve fuel economy and reduce well-to-wheel emissions, each team must replace the SUV's existing hybrid engine and transmission with an extended-range, plug-in electric, fuel-cell, or all-electric power train using their choice of B20, E85, or liquid hydrogen fuel. See the students working on their prototypes as they prepare for final testing.
Students from Mississippi State University placed first in the 2010 EcoCAR: The NeXt Challenge finals in San Diego Friday after designing and building a biodiesel extended-range electric vehicle (EREV).
Testing and judging gets underway as the end of "Year Two" approaches in EcoCAR: The NeXt Challenge at the General Motors Desert Proving Ground in Yuma, Arizona.

I would like to hear someone who is in favor of JS MVC explain how you deal with security.
If your controllers contain business logic and they are all JS then you have a security problem.
Or are people backing their controllers with other (non extjs ) controllers ?
8 Oct 2012 11:17 AM #22
Client-side Javascipt is inherently insecure. The server should always be responsible for security in a web application.
14 Oct 2012 7:00 AM #23
I consider it acceptable for someone poking around in my javascript to break their instance of the application, so client-side security need only go as far as the app not breaking in normal use. The server must enforce correct access control and validation for all calls even if the client side also implements it. Any business logic in client-side JS is subject to inspecting and tampering, regardless of style or framework used, so treat it as just user-experience sugar on top of your secure API calls.Chief Architect @ Jarv.us Innovations

$7 shipping still makes this a better deal than $66 on Amazon where this item got 4/5 stars!
I have one and I love it. Gets a lot of use, especially for breakfast.
Looks like a great product. I would probably be all over this if I didn't have an immersion blender. It can handle blending the same capacity with ease, but if you don't already have something for the job, this looks great! Hard to go wrong with Cuisinart too.
Use the code "COMEBACK5" and you can save another $5 on the deal in case the shipping charge was holding you back.

Device Profiles for Sencha Touch 2 application developed in Architect2
I'm developing a Sencha Touch 2 application in Sencha Architect 2 (as per title).
I don't see where I can define the device profiles within Architect. I may be missing something but I would have expected to see a profiles property off the main application. I know you can change the view of what you're developing but I don't see any built in support for defining profiles that you're project can take advantage of.
From the Native iOS Packaging site (http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/...tive_packaging) I see where you can specify orientations in the packaging config files, but you have to edit the file manually to include which profiles you want to use. In the 'deploy' options there is no way to configure it. In fact, Architect2 will overwrite the simulator.json file when you do a deploy.
Anyone run into this? How did you proceed?
Any thoughts on best practices when it comes to device profiles?
Any plans by the Sencha development team that includes device profiles management within Architect2?

I'm also very curious about this. Can not seem to find any clear way to work with device profiles in Architect 2. I guess I'll need to create different projects for each profile, merge them when I'm satisfied with the results and then continue coding in a normal text based tool? Would be great if this were to be addressed in a future release. All in all, very nice product though!

Battleship Texas
Though it serves as a museum today, this historic battleship is one of two remaining vessels to have served in both WWI and WWII. During its active service, the battleship commonly escorted convoys on missions and earned a total of five battle stars during its career. Texas was the first battleship to be equipped with anti-aircraft guns and to launch an aircraft from its deck.
Fun Fact: Texas served in D-Day operations and in the battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa.

MORRISTOWN - The Steubenville girls basketball team survived an injury to the team's leading scorer, and a Super Bowl-like blackout, to defeat East Liverpool 59-47 in the Ohio Division II Sectional Semifinals at Union Local High School Wednesday.
Emiley Masloski left the game with an injury early in the third quarter, but her Big Red teammates were up to the challenge of advancing to Tuesday's sectional final.
"Emiley got hurt and came out early in the third quarter," said Big Red head coach Phil Casinelli. "It was only about two minutes into the second half. We don't know right now about the extent of the injury.
"She didn't go back in, and we'll evaluate her in the morning."
With around two minutes left in the third, and Big Red holding a slim lead, the gym lights went out, causing a 30-minute delay.
"The lights went out, and they had to warm up again before they came back on," said Casinelli. "The girls responded well to the delay. We got about two minutes to warm back up, and we were ready."
The key to Steubenville's win was a change in its effort on the defensive end of the court, led by Dominique Wilson.
"East Liverpool got to the foul line in first half more than we wanted," said Casinelli. "The girls were trying to defend with their hands and not moving their feet.
"We changed some things in the second half. Dominique Wilson didn't score, but we put her on their point guard, Kayla Edgell, in the second half and she did an outstanding job.
"She (Edgell) scored 19, but only four of those came in the second half. Dominique kept her off the line in the second half."
Mytia Barker led Big Red with 15 points on the evening. Emiley Masloski joined her in double-digits with 11 points despite her injury.
"All the girls responded well when Emiley went out," said Casinelli. "Mytia especially responded late. Emiley was out and Hanna (Masloski) fouled out so Mytia took over the guard position in the fourth and stepped up for us."
Taylor Young and Abbey Taylor each scored nine for Big Red.
"Mytia, Taylor (Young), and Abbey Taylor all got to the line in the second half," said Casinelli. "We played much better as a team on both ends of the court in the second half."
Awaiting Steubenville (16-7) in the Ohio Division II Sectional Final is No. 1 seeded Carrollton.
"We're just going to have to try and play a mistake-free game," said Casinelli. "We can't have any turnovers against that team. They like to speed the game up.
"They force you to turn it over for transition baskets. We have to take care of the basketball. We'll also have to do a better job on the defensive end to stop penetration. A better job defending the perimeter."

This question comes from the first reduction step of Theorem 4.2 of Kawamata's paper on K-equivalent implies D-equivalent on toroidal varieties. But my question has little to do with this theorem.
A variety $X$ is called toroidal variety if for every closed point $x\in X$, there is a closed point $p$ in an affine toric variety $W$, such that there exists an isomorphism of complete local rings:$$\widehat{\mathcal{O}_{W,p}} \cong \widehat{\mathcal{O}_{X,x}}.$$
Suppose one wants to prove the derived equivalent of $D^b(Coh(X))$ and $D^b(Coh(Y))$, where $X,Y$ are toroidal varieties. Why it is enough to reduce to the case where $X,Y$ are toric varieties?
Kawamata gave an explanation which is unclear for me. He claimed "since the set of all the point sheaves span the derived categories, our assertion can be proved analytic locally." I know that $k(x)$ form a spanning class of $D^b(Coh(X))$, and I guess he want to use the result that
If $F: D_1 \to D_2$ is a functor between triangulated categories, and $F$ has left and right adjoints, if $\Omega$ is a spanning class of $D_1$, then $F$ is an equivalent iff $Hom(A,B[l]) \cong Hom(F(A),F(B)[l]), \forall A, B \in \Omega.$
However, I cannot see why this result can be applied locally in our case.

It snows and stops, now it is January,
The houseplants need feeding,
The guests have gone. Today I'm half a boy,
Flat as something innocent, a clean
Plate, just needing a story.
A woman should be able to say
I've become an Amazon,
Warrior woman minus a breast,
The better to shoot arrow
After fierce arrow,
Or else I am that dancing Shiva
Carved in the living rock at Elephanta,
One-breasted male deity, but I don't feel
Holy enough or mythic enough.
Taking courage, I told a man I've resolved
To be as sexy with one breast
As other people are with two
And he looked away.
Spare me your pity,
Your terror, your condolence,
I'm not your wasting heroine,
Your dying swan. Friend, tragedy
Is a sort of surrender.
Tell me again I'm a model
Of toughness. I eat that up.
I grade papers, I listen to wind,
My husband helps me come, it thaws
A week before semester starts.
Now Schubert plays and the tenor wheels
Through Heine's lieder. A fifteen year survivor
Phones: You know what? You're the same person
After a mastectomy as before. An idea
That had never occurred to me.
You have a job you like? You have poems to write?
Your marriage is okay? It will stay that way.
The wrinkles are worse. I hate looking in the mirror.
But a missing breast, well, you get used to it.
