Picture: David Beckham arrives at LAX airport separately from his LA Galaxy team mates after a match Los Angeles, California - 21.10.11
David Beckham's American soccer dream is complete after the sportsman led his Los Angeles Galaxy team to the Mls Cup on Sunday night (20Nov11).
The Brit had the last kick of the game in a 1-0 victory over Houston Dynamo and became one of the only soccer stars to win championships in three countries.
After the game, an emotional Beckham stated, "It's about time. We've been fighting this for some time."
However, he would not confirm rumours he is now planning to leave the U.S. game and head to France.
He said, "Whether I stay or not, I've had an amazing five years."

The New New World Order
Throughout the twentieth century, the list of the world's great powers was predictably short: the United States, the Soviet Union, Japan, and northwestern Europe. The twenty-first century will be different. China and India are emerging as economic and political heavyweights: China holds over a trillion dollars in hard currency reserves, India's high-tech sector is growing by leaps and bounds, and both countries, already recognized nuclear powers, are developing blue-water navies. The National Intelligence Council, a U.S. government think tank, projects that by 2025, China and India will have the world's second- and fourth-largest economies, respectively. Such growth is opening the way for a multipolar era in world politics.
This tectonic shift will pose a challenge to the U.S.-dominated global institutions that have been in place since the 1940s. At the behest of Washington, these multilateral regimes have promoted trade liberalization, open capital markets, and nuclear nonproliferation, ensuring relative peace and prosperity for six decades -- and untold benefits for the United States. But unless rising powers such as China and India are incorporated into this framework, the future of these international regimes will be uncomfortably uncertain.
Given its performance over the last six years, one would not expect the Bush administration to handle this challenge terribly well. After all, its unilateralist impulses, on vivid display in the Iraq war, have become a lightning rod for criticism of U.S. foreign policy. But the Iraq controversy has overshadowed a more pragmatic and multilateral component of the

From the Liberty Bell to Alcatraz, federal landmarks and offices reopened Thursday. Furloughed employees were relieved to get back to work - even if faced with email backlogs - but many worried about another such disruption in a matter of months.
Aaron Alexis seems a study in contradictions: a former Navy reservist, a Defense Department contractor, a convert to Buddhism who was taking an online course in aeronautics. But he also had flashes of temper that led to run-ins with police over shootings in Fort Worth, Texas, and Seattle.
NEW YORK — Playboy, Penthouse and other sex-themed magazines will no longer be sold at Army and Air Force exchanges — a move described by the stores' operators as a business decision based on falling sales, and not a result of recent pressure from anti-pornography activists.
NEW YORK — There's extensive evidence that pigs are as smart and sociable as dogs. Yet one species is afforded affection and respect; the other faces mass slaughter en route to becoming bacon, ham and pork chops.
NEW YORK — Amid a surge of anti-gay violence and repression in several countries, the United Nations' human rights office on Friday launched its first global outreach campaign to promote tolerance and greater equality for lesbians, gays, transgender people and bisexuals.
Across the country, this week's landmark Supreme Court rulings on same-sex marriage have energized activists and politicians on both sides of the debate.
The Boy Scouts of America will get no reprieve from controversy after a contentious vote to accept openly gay boys as Scouts.
Dismayed conservatives are already looking at alternative youth groups as they predict a mass exodus from the BSA.
With its ranks deeply divided, the Boy Scouts of America is asking its local leaders from across the country to decide whether its contentious membership policy should be overhauled so that openly gay boys can participate in Scout units.
NEW YORK — Government authorities should end the practice of placing juveniles' names on publicly accessible sex-offender registries, Human Rights Watch says in a report warning of lasting and unwarranted harm to some youths.

Top 25 men's roundup: No. 1 Syracuse stops N.C. State to stay undefeated
RALEIGH, N.C. — Dion Waiters scored a career-high 22 points to help No. 1 Syracuse beat North Carolina State 88-72 on Saturday.
Scoop Jardine added 16 points for the Orange (11-0), including a pair of 3-pointers during an 11-2 spurt that finally gave them some cushion after the Wolfpack fought back from a 17-point deficit late in the first half.
Waiters also came up big during that run, starting it by knocking down his own 3-pointer to answer one by Scott Wood that had pulled N.C. State (6-4) to within 63-61.
Waiters also jumped a pass and raced in for a dunk, then Jardine closed the spurt with another 3 to push the lead to 74-63 with 6:41 left.
It was a good road test for Syracuse, which was playing for the first time this season as the nation's No. 1 team — as well as its first game outside its home state.
No. 2 OHIO STATE 74, SOUTH CAROLINA 66: At Columbia, S.C., Deshaun Thomas scored a career-high 30 points and Ohio State overcame the loss of star Jared Sullinger to give Thad Matta his 200th win as Buckeyes coach.
Sullinger left in the first half after getting kicked in the left foot. X-rays showed no fracture, although it wasn't known if Sullinger would play against Lamar on Tuesday night.
Even if he can't, Thomas showed he's more than ready to lead Ohio State (10-1). The 6-foot-7 sophomore hit 13-of-16 shots and surpassed his previous high of 24 points set last season against North Carolina A&T. William Buford added 17 points for Ohio State.
Malik Cooke led South Carolina (4-6) with 21 points.
No. 3 KENTUCKY 87, TENNESSEE-CHATTANOOGA 62: At Lexington, Ky., Doron Lamb scored 24 points to help Kentucky bounce back from its first loss of the season despite an injury to forward Terrence Jones. Voted preseason All-America, Jones spent much of the game on the bench after hurting a finger on his left hand early in the first half. He checked back in but played only 10 minutes. He finished with no points and one rebound.
Still, the Wildcats (9-1) opened with 13 unanswered points in their first game since a 73-72 defeat at Indiana last Saturday knocked them from the nation's top ranking.
No. 4 LOUISVILLE 95, MEMPHIS 87: At Louisville, Ky., Russ Smith set personal bests with 24 points and seven steals as Louisville extended its home winning streak to 18 games.
Gorgui Dieng added 14 points and 14 rebounds in the schools' first meeting since the Cardinals (10-0) beat the Tigers (5-4) by a point to win the Conference USA tournament in 2005 before departing for the Big East.
Will Barton set career highs with 28 points and 16 rebounds for Memphis.
Louisville is off to its best start since the 1996-97 season and on its longest winning streak at home in 22 years.
No. 5 NORTH CAROLINA 97, APPALACHIAN STATE 82: At Chapel Hill, N.C., Tyler Zeller had 31 points and 10 rebounds, and John Henson added 17 points to lead North Carolina.
The Tar Heels (9-2) never trailed, led by as much as 29 and shot 54.5 percent to claim their third straight win and 22nd in a row at the Dean Smith Center.
Omar Carter had 21 points and Mike Neal scored 15 for the Mountaineers (4-6). They finished 9-of-20 from 3-point range and used a late scoring flurry to cut into North Carolina's big lead, but lost their fourth straight. Second-year Appalachian State coach Jason Capel lost his first matchup against his alma mater. He started for the Tar Heels from 1998-2002.
No. 11 MARQUETTE 93, NORTHERN COLORADO 72: At Milwaukee, freshman Todd Mayo replaced suspended star Darius Johnson-Odom in the starting lineup and scored 22 points to lead Marquette.

|"Queen Sonja" debuts in October
Dynamite Entertainment's âRed Sonjaâ is reaching the end of an era. Brian Reed and Walter Geovaniâs run on the book is coming to an end, as is the series itself. But as one chapter in Sonjaâs life comes to close, another begins. After âRed Sonjaâ wraps up with October's issue #49, Joshua Ortega and Mel Rubi are taking the reins with November's âQueen Sonjaâ #1. CBR News caught up with Reed and Ortega to get the details on Red Sonjaâs ascension.
As Brian Reedâs run on âRed Sonjaâ draws to a close, Sonja and Lucan Marturâs respective armies are in race against the clock to find the Blood Dynasty, an artifact of immense power. Reed described the Dynasty as âan all powerful artifact that will allow its bearer to rule the world.â Or so the legend goes. The truth of the Blood Dynasty will be revealed in âRed Sonjaâ #49. The Goddess, it turns out, is âstill alive and mad as hell that Sonja has forsaken her,â and her story is resolved in Reedâs final issue as well.
Joshua Ortega says that Sonjaâs ascension to the throne has been a few years in the making. âDynamite, to their credit, has really made sure to launch âQueen Sonjaâ carefully, not rush it, and make sure this new era of Sonja's story is done right,â Ortega told CBR.
The writer had had a blast working on Dynamiteâs âSavage Talesâ and âRed Sonjaâ #32, and those gigs set the stage for his upcoming run on âQueen Sonja.â âI really enjoyed writing those stories, spoke with Joe Rybandt and Nick Barrucci quite a bit about Sonja and the possibilities with the character, and luckily, they enjoyed and respected my work enough to hand the reigns to the Sonja book,â Ortega said.
Dynamite is doing everything in its power to make the changing of the creative guard a smooth transition. âThe last issue of my run is plotted, but right now I'm talking with Dynamite about what they need the final few pages to be as set up for Josh's run at the book,â Reed said.
Ortega is grateful that Dynamite kept him so informed about the end of Reedâs story, but one of the aspects of âQueen Sonjaâ that the writer is most excited about is the new direction the character is taking. âPart of the âQueen Sonjaâ concept is to give the character a fresh start, something new that people haven't seen before with Sonja,â Ortega said. âIn that sense, it's a new era, a place where people can jump on in and learn about Sonja, Hyrkania, and experience it in a different light.â
|"Red Sonja" concludes with October's issue #49
But Ortega says itâs a bit premature to go into detail about the details of Sonjaâs ascension to monarch of Hykrania, and the challenges that await her in that high office. âWe want readers to experience the journey as they move through the issues and learn about the Rise of Sonja in âreal time,ââ Ortega explained. âHow she ascends the throne is a big part of the story, and we want to make sure to deliver a compelling, interesting, and action-packed story that is worthy of Sonja's ascension to a Queen.â
The 48-page first issue of âQueen Sonjaâ has a number of special features, including an all-new Sonja short story, but on that, Ortega was also reluctant to go into detail. âI'm going to leave that as a surprise for now, but suffice to say, Nick and the Dynamite crew will make sure you get some nice surprises with that issue.â
Mel Rubi is a âRed Sonjaâ vet himself, and Ortega is honored to be working with the artist on âQueen Sonja.â âI admired his work on the first âSonjaâ stories, and thought he really nailed the look and feel of the character and the world,â Ortega said. âHis sense of visuals and style are very strong, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what he does with the book...the guy's got some serious talent!â
Reed, for his part, admitted that ending his run on âRed Sonjaâ has been bittersweet. âAny time I reach the end of work on a story, I'm sad in some way to see it go,â he said. âBut I've also done a heck of a lot with Sonja in a short period of time (ninja wars, giant sea monsters, the building of two separate armies), so I can't say I'm leaving with anything undone.â If the right story comes along, Reed is definitely leaving the door open to return to the character in the future. âBut for now this is Josh's show to run and I wish him the best of luck.âÂ
âRed Sonjaâ #49 his stands this September, and look for âQueen Sonjaâ #1 in October from Dynamite Entertainment.

Regarding this DVD version: Tartan has released several Bergman films on DVD that aren't otherwise available in the US. They're in PAL format, which may discourage American fans since they probably aren't playable on the typical television DVD player. But I've had success playing them on my computer's DVD player. For some reason computers are more flexible about formats. If you don't mind watching a film on your laptop, you may be able to view this and the other Bergman films Tartan has released.
Known for a plethora of films in his oeuvre such as "The Seventh Seal", "Wild Strawberries", "Fanny and Alexander", to name a few. Bergman is best known for films that dealt with existential questions of mortality, loneliness and religious faith. Many of the films, especially the characters are an expression of how Bergman felt at the time.
And many of his stylistic and conceptual themes were formed in his earlier work, especially stories that were set in summer. "Smiles of a Summer Night", "Summer with Monika", "Wild Strawberries", etc.
But one film that resonated strongly with Bergman was an earlier film from 1951 titled "Summer Interlude". Bergman wrote in his book "Bergman on Bergman", "For me Summer Interlude is one of my most important films. Even though to an outsider it may seem terribly passé, for me it isn't. This was my first film in which I felt I was functioning independently, with a style of my own, making a film all my own, with a particular appearance of its own, which no one could ape. It was like no other film. It was all my own work. Suddenly I knew I was putting the camera on the right spot, getting the right results; that everything added up. For sentimental reasons, too, it was also fun making it."
And for the many cineaste who have followed Bergman's work, many credit "Summer Interlude" as his "breathrough" film and featuring a style that would later be fully expanded in later films.
"Summer Interlude" is presented in 1080p High Definition black and white (1:37:1 aspect ratio). The video quality looks amazing considering that the film is 60-years-old.Read more ›
Bergman was a serious womanizer which is hinted at in a Summer With Monika featurette that would never be satiated in his lifetime regardless the chase and conquer. these films hint at the greatness bubbling under his surface and go beyond art house as far as substance and sustenance quantify. if I love them, you'll probably like them. be more, try them. go way beyond today's digital so "30 seconds ago" when timeless moments could happen, leaving you in awe and breathless. unconcerned with whom knew what, when, or if ever.
sweet, modest young man, changes a her adult life as a ballet dancer
Told in flashback, beautifully shot, and mostly well (if not quite
brilliantly) acted, this lovely film could have been even stronger if
the two leads both didn't look and feel much too old for their roles,
making their naiveté and innocence feel a bit forced.
But there's much that's moving and insightful here about youthful
idealism versus life's hard realities.

Yes ... The movie was si hard to find and am so appreciative i got it .Published 2 months ago by Duangjai Adireksarn
One of Bergman's best. A must see for romantics who love films about lost love and that one time in your life you felt most vibrant and alive.
This is an early work by Bergmann. Incipiently it
shows and takes up many of the themes of his
later movies. It is a delight. A largely unknown delight.

I am a nurse who works for a VA facility. HHV is an organization that actually provides a product for our patients- craft kits mostly. I feel there must be a disconnect between the Administration (especially the immoral criminal Roger Chapin) and the people who actually provide the service that HHV says it does. Somewhat perplexing, but I know that our patients enjoy being able to get free craft kits to occupy their time and help them heal. I support HHV, but hope to God they have gotten rid of the scum that steal the money we give for their own use!

In-person registration at Essex County College (ECC) will be held from 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Thursday and Friday, Jan. 3 and 4, at both the Newark and West Essex campuses. Late registration will be held from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday to Thursday, January 7-10.
In addition to registration information, interested students can also learn about the college's "hybrid" or online courses that combine face-to-face classroom instruction with online learning.
Students can also take advantage of the tuition freeze at ECC, as rates have been frozen at the 2010-2011 level.
By offering classes starting as early as 7 a.m. and as late as after 7 p.m., students can easily find courses that will fit into their busy schedules. The college is on target with the Obama Administration's college completion agenda in which the president is looking for five million more community college graduates nation-wide by 2020.
The New Jersey Commission on Higher Education set up a formula for the state's 19 community colleges to meet the "fair share" of the five million graduates by 2020. ECC is moving along with that plan, bolstered by the increased class offerings.
Online registration information is available at www.essex.edu.
Information is also available for the weekend college (classes begin Friday, Jan. 11) and Spring II, starting Friday, Jan 25.
General registration information is available by calling the Office of Student Success at (973) 877-3348, or emailing email@example.com.
Essex County College is a comprehensive community college offering multiple resources for academic and career growth at its main Newark campus, West Essex campus in West Caldwell, and satellite centers throughout Essex County. ECC enrolls more than 13,000 students who are pursuing credit courses in academic disciplines while thousands more are enrolled in ESL and adult literacy classes, short-term job training, and numerous programs for professional development and personal enrichment.

You know the saying: One bad apple can spoil the whole bunch. If you're a manager, you may occasionally encounter a bad apple. So what does a leader do to stop "problem" employees from spreading their negative influence?
Smart employers carefully track FMLA leave and make sure employees know their rights. That includes warning employees when their leave is about to expire and explaining their options for returning or requesting additional time off.

Syria's government appears to have made a significant step in destroying its chemical weapons.
An international chemical weapons watchdog group says the country has destroyed the equipment it used to make those weapons.
The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons visited 21 of 23 sites. The team didn't visit two of the sites for security concerns. However, the equipment from those sites was moved and inspected somewhere else.
The country had until November 1 to destroy that equipment.
It still has to destroy its existing stockpile and weapons. That's supposed to happen by next summer.

Cairn, Vedanta Get India's OK
NEW DELHI—A panel in India conditionally approved Cairn Energy CRNCY -2.38 % PLC's proposal to sell a big stake in its Indian unit to miner Vedanta Resources VED -0.16 % PLC.
India's Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs required that Cairn equally and retroactively share royalty payments with Oil & Natural Gas Corp. on crude-oil production from an important block.
If accepted by Cairn and Vedanta, Thursday's approval of the roughly $9 billion deal, among the biggest ever in India's energy sector, would give Vedanta a foothold in India's growing resources market. The much-delayed pact meanwhile would give Cairn the means to focus on its oil-drilling program in Greenland.
The decision also is expected to boost ONGC's share price ahead of the government's plan to sell a further 5% stake in the state-run company.
The approval would pave the way for Cairn India Ltd. to increase production from its main oil-producing block in the northwestern state of Rajasthan, which has been awaiting approval from the government and its partner, ONGC.
"This chapter is over after a long while," Oil Minister Jaipal Reddy said at a news conference. He said Cairn also will have to withdraw its arbitration case related to tax payments on production from the Rajasthan block and get clearance from ONGC. Vedanta will have to provide performance and financial guarantees and obtain approval from other regulators, he said.
London-listed Vedanta, whose operations are focused in India, in August proposed acquiring up to 60% in Cairn India from Cairn Energy and shareholders.
A ministerial panel in May recommended that the cabinet committee approve the deal, provided that Cairn agree to evenly share the royalties and withdraw its arbitration proceedings. ONGC, which holds a 30% stake in the block, currently pays the entire royalty under rules that had been meant to attract foreign investment in the oil-and-gas sector. Cairn India owns the remaining 70% stake.
Vedanta on Monday restructured its proposal. The miner will now pay $6.02 billion to acquire a 40% stake in Cairn India from its parent, instead of $6.6 billion, after both the companies agreed to remove a noncompetition fee of 50 rupees ($1.11) a share.
Vedanta, which holds 18.5% of Cairn India, agreed to buy a 10% stake in Cairn India by July 11 and the remaining 30% stake following government and other approvals.
Edinburgh-based Cairn Energy owns a 62.36% stake in Cairn India. A spokesman for Cairn Energy said it hadn't received formal confirmation of the government's decision and continues to work to secure the necessary approvals.

Roll out your swag: It's School of the Air camp

What do you remember about your school camp? The food, giggling in your bunk, maybe riding the flying fox?
For one group of Pilbara children this week's school camp has been a very exciting affair and not just for the usual reasons.
The Port Hedland School of the Air mini camp was held this week at Sylvania Station in the East Pilbara, about 45 minutes drive from the town of Newman.
It was a rare chance for students to play in the same room and to chat to their teachers without waiting for a satellite time delay.
12 children from stations across the region, including Wallareenya, Cheela Plains and Mundabullanga, rolled out their swags on the Smoothey family's lawn and attended lessons in the garden.
For year five student Matilda Valley and her four sisters this week's School of the Air camp is their last.
The siblings and their parents have moved from a remote station in the Western Desert to the town of Newman and the girls will attend a public school next year.
"We live in the city now. I'm going to miss all my friends and teachers. School of the Air is much funner than regular school."
Unlike a typical school camp, parents and tutors attend as well and they have their own classes run by the teachers.
Port Hedland School of the Air principal, Michael Jennings, says the time spent together at camp helps in developing support networks, so students and tutors don't feel isolated.
"Not everyone can make it to every camp but it's very much worthwhile having the face to face opportunities where the children and the home tutors can spend time with each other.
"From here we go back into cyber space, where we make do with the technology, but these face to face opportunities are very important in bringing it all together."

Three teenage pals died and a fourth was left fighting for his life after the car they were in slammed into a lorry.
Tragic 17-year-olds Jack Boyton and Harry Ferrand were killed instantly along with Ashley Jones, 19, when the Vauxhall Corsa crashed into the back of the articulated truck.
Survivor Liam Bradshaw, also 17, was flown by air ambulance to hospital and was said to be in a critical but stable condition after surgery.
The trucker in the Mercedes HGV was not hurt in the collision on a busy dual carriageway.
Devastated friends of Ashley, from Canvey Island in Essex, and Harry and Jack, of Enfield, North London, had set up a Facebook tribute to the popular trio within hours of Friday's smash.
One girl wrote: "Keep wishing it was just a bad dream." Chloe Baker, a friend of Ashley, said: "Can't believe I've lost you forever! You will always be in my heart baby I love you xxxxxxx." And Jack's cousin Danielle Latimer posted: "He was only 17 and he was such a happy and cheeky lad with his entire life ahead of him. His constant smile will stay with us forever."
Sue Selim added: "RIP, such young lives tragically take from this world way too soon...heaven has gained more angels." Others prayed for Liam to "keep fighting" in hospital.
The cause of the 2.15pm crash on the northbound A10 in Hertfordshire, between Turnford and Hoddesdon, was still being investigated.
Police said: "Three men have tragically died and one man has been seriously injured following this collision and we are providing support to their families at this difficult time.
"We are conducting a thorough investigation into the circumstances of the collision and are appealing for anyone who may have witnessed the incident to get in contact as soon as possible."
An ambulance spokesman said the three friends were pronounced dead shortly after paramedics arrived.
He added: "A fourth man, who was seriously injured, was treated by land and air ambulance crews before he was flown to the Royal London Hospital for further care."

He is cut of the blue blood cloth, Carolina blue blood to be specific.
In his jewelry collection is a 1993 national championship ring, a 1991 Final Four watch and two more tokens from a couple Sweet 16 appearances.
But for all his basketball royalty, Scott Cherry wears a hard-earned blue collar. Fed by the college hoops silver spoon in Chapel Hill, he spit it out once he graduated. His varying résumé includes stints as a forklift salesman, high school JV coach, women's assistant and men's assistant.
And it is that unique blend of experience, not his North Carolina pedigree, that landed Cherry his first head coaching job.
"The more experiences you have prior to that first coaching job, the better off you'll be," said High Point athletic director Craig Keilitz, who tabbed Cherry as the school's head coach on March 27. "He is blue-collar. He's worked his way up in this profession and knows what it takes to build a program."
Indeed, Cherry already has done the heavy lifting, or at least sold the machinery that does.
After one year of professional basketball in Cyprus, Cherry came home, unsure what exactly he wanted to do. The father of a college friend owned a forklift company and, for three years, Cherry worked there as a salesman.
When work was over, he'd find himself in front of the television. But instead of just watching basketball, he'd analyze it.
"I'd sit there and critique everything," Cherry said. "I realized I missed the game."
He left his sales position and took a job as a junior varsity coach at Bishop McGuinness High School in Winston-Salem, N.C. A year later, he served a season as an assistant women's coach at Middle Tennessee.
In 1999, he joined the George Mason staff and spent seven seasons (interrupted by a one-year stint at Tennessee Tech in 2002) alongside Jim Larranaga, which included a front-row seat for the Patriots' storybook run to the 2006 Final Four.
But Cherry didn't jump headfirst into the glamorous side of college hoops. Initially Larranaga's third assistant, he wasn't allowed to recruit and so he handled all of the team's menial tasks.
Everything from travel arrangements to film exchange fell into Cherry's bailiwick. .
"If I had gone from North Carolina as a player to the North Carolina bench, it would be different," Cherry said. "I got to really learn the business. My first few weeks on the job here, we were working on the little things -- Nike contracts, getting a game schedule -- and I could tell my assistants what I wanted or how I wanted it done because I've done it. I know what works and what doesn't."
Equally important for a man who graduated from a school where the basketball machine runs like a Fortune 500 company, Cherry watched and learned what it takes to build a program where the fortunes are substantially less.
It is one thing to enjoy a one-hit wonder season and fall back into the shadows. It is another to sustain success. George Mason and Western Kentucky, where Cherry worked alongside Darrin Horn for a year, are well-established winners. Since that Final Four run, the Patriots have made the postseason two out of three years. The Hilltoppers followed up a 2008 Sweet 16 run with a second-round date in the NCAA tournament this past season, despite losing Horn to South Carolina.
In Columbia, Horn -- with Cherry by his side on the bench -- led a struggling Gamecocks program to 21 wins, including a 10-6 record in the SEC.
Establishment doesn't come easy, however.
"I'll never forget my first year at Western Kentucky [when] someone came in and asked me what we wanted to do about the stationary," Horn said. "I thought, 'Can't someone else handle that?' That first year when you switch into the head-coaching chair is tough. Building is hard. You want to beat your head on the wall sometimes because there's so much on your plate, but Scott is very intelligent. He's able to process things before he becomes emotional about them and I think that will really serve him well."
Cherry has landed at High Point at an unusual time. The school remains a low-major in the basketball pecking order but has designs on upping its place in the hierarchy.
Following the lead of university president Dr. Nido Qubein, who has ushered in a $250 million construction and renovation plan on campus in his short four-year tenure, the athletics department is beginning to up its sports profile. The school is in the midst of a $2 million renovation to the Mills Athletic and Convocation Center, recently built a $5 million sports center and renovated its baseball, soccer and track facilities.
"A lot of times you find that the most energy comes from athletics on a campus and the university sort of follows -- here, it's the other way around," said Keilitz, who came to High Point from Wake Forest. "The university is so energized and athletics is following along with it. To build a program, we need to support Scott through marketing and budget and facilities and we're making strides to do all of that."
But there is monumental work to be done on the court.
Cherry, who has never had a losing record as a college player or coach, might be hard-pressed to keep that run alive this season. High Point returns the bulk of its roster, but finished 9-21 last season.
Since joining the Division I ranks in 1998-99, the Panthers have never won a Big South title or, consequently, advanced to the postseason.
"A lot of people say we have nowhere to go but up, but I feel like we have the necessary pieces here," Cherry said. "There's a lot of expectations here, with the direction of the university and what the president and athletic director have done, but I say why not?
"We should have high expectations and believe we can compete for a championship. I embrace that challenge."

MARA Activities
Field Day ActivitiesField Day activities for the club are held in conjunction with the ARRL's annual Field Day in June of each year. This national event tests the skills in setting up temporary communication equipment for possible use in emergencies, and contacts are made to as many other stations as possible during the two days. It provides family fun and operating experiences for all who wish to participate.
Field Day 2016 - June 25-26
We usually gather around 3:00pm to 4:00pm on Friday to put up the antennas, operating tents, and general setup of the area. Some of us camp out on the site and make contacts with other stations to test our equipment. As always, a lot of fun during the Friday setup and evening.
Each year we have operated a 2A setup, which means two HF rigs. We have one SSB, one CW, a GOTA (Get On The Air) tent for inactive hams, young people, or those merely interested in amateur radio, and a 6-meter operation. (The latter two do not count in the 2A classification.)
Check with members for definite plans, which will be posted here closer to the field day time.
See a few photos of our Field Day.
Directions: Take the Minden/Sibley exit (Exit 47) off I-20 and proceed north until middle of town and then take Pine St north. This becomes Dorcheat Rd and will pass by the airport. Take a R at Caney Lake Rd (PAR 111) and proceed east. Turn R at Caney Lake Park Rd (there will be signs there to the Caney Lake Recreation Area). At the end of this road (T intersection), take a L and the entrance to the area will be on the R.
Annual Christmas HamfestThis very popular event is held in December and draws participants, including dealers, from surrounding states and has gotten bigger each year. There is plenty to see and do for everyone, including testing sessions, great food, door prizes, and main prizes that any ham would love to win. This event provides a "hamfest fix" in a period of the year during which few hamfests are held.

The West Village's real meat market: Florence Prime
It's the kind of place with sawdust on the floor, framed charts of beef cuts on the walls, handsaws hanging from hooks. The wooden butcher blocks have been worn concave with use, and the scales and meat case date back to the FDR administration. Many of Florence's employees have been there as long as owner Benny Pizzuco, since 1995. "Once in a while one or two of the delivery boys change, but they all start out with a broom," says Benny. "We we don't start with butchers; they come with bad habits. They have to be taught our way."
Although Benny worked as a butcher on Long Island before coming to Florence, he still studied the Florence way as an employee for several years before buying the shop in 1995 from previous owner Tony Pellegrino. Tony took over in 1975, but the shop has been around since 1936, when a butcher named Jack Ubaldi first opened its doors.
"We're one of the last actual prime custom shops in the city," says Benny. "Walk into other places and everything is cut already." Pizzuco says he has one or two customers who have been coming to the store since it opened (or their parents did), though most are gone. A number of long-time customers have moved to the suburbs, but still make the drive in on Saturdays to pick up their weekly order.
Pizzuco takes pride in his beef, dry aged for up to three weeks and hand cut to order, handmade sausages, and his seasoned veal roasts, offered two ways: one with prosciutto, pepper, rosemary and garlic, and the other with spinach, sausage and herbs. "The seasoning goes where it belongs, on the inside," he says.
This Thanksgiving , as every year, Florence is taking pre-orders for natural fresh turkeys, fresh duck, squab and quail, which Benny gets from a farmer in Pennsylvania with whom he's had a longstanding relationship. On my last visit, one regular wanted to make sure that her turkey would be a wild one. They're a little tougher, and a little gamier, an acquired taste that is a badge of honor among those who possess it.
Certain info is proprietary at Florence, such as the name of Benny's turkey supplier, and how exactly he cuts his Newport steaks. The Newport, said to have been invented at Florence, is still one of its top sellers. It is a type of tri-tip, normally a grainy, triangular-shaped muscle from the bottom sirloin of the cow, but somehow rendered much more appetizing by the butchers at Florence.
"When Jack opened the place, it was very bohemian around here," Benny explains. "People were really starving artists. He came up with this fairly reasonable cut." (Still reasonable, it sells for $7.99 a pound at Florence.) The name came from the package of Newport cigarettes, which featured a half moon logo. "Back then it was fashionable, though today it might bother people."
Don't even get Benny started on the vagaries of outer-borough food stores and cheap meat. "To be honest witcha (one of Benny's favorite sentence starters) all of those businesses, the meat market, the food store, the fish store, once you leave Manhattan, they're gone; not enough people are interested in food to support a place like this. The stuff at Costco is horrible, untrimmed, in a bloody plastic bag. Why would you want to spend six-ninety-nine a pound for a steak when you eat only fifty percent of it?" he asks.
Anyway, back to the secret of that tender Newport. Benny will reveal that it is only partly tri-tip, and so more prime and tender. But he prefers not to divulge this "seventy-something-year-old secret."
That's okay with me. I'm happy that Benny has such secrets, and that Florence is still here to maintain them.

Joël Robuchon makes magic on 57th Street
Whenever the boss is in town, L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon at the Four Seasons Hotel crackles with an extra jolt of electricity. Today, the Robuchon force field was so powerful that his team of precision alchemists turned out a feast for the ages, what for me was the best meal of my life.
The occasion was hosted by M. Bernard Margez, the French wine magnate who owns 36 vineyards in eight countries and champions the idea of micro-cuvées, limited-production wines from vineyards that lack the cachet of the great terroirs. Margez has teamed up with the exporter Maison Joanne and is ready to spread his message and his product in the U.S.
So there were ravishing wines, notably a 2007 Château Pape Clément white, and double magnums of 1986 Château Pape Clément red, from the Pessac-Léognan region of Bordeaux, where wine has been made since 1252. Magret apologized for his English, quoted Montaigne on friendship, and thanked the Americans, without whose intervention in World War II, he said, "we would be speaking German today."
|Sommelier Jason Wagner
It was Robuchon's food, however that stole the day for me: sea urchin in a domed glass cup covered in a white tea and carrot mouseline, king crab in a thin turnip ravioli with rosemary, sea bass surrounded by an ethereal lemongrass foam and stewed baby leeks, sliced wagyu rib-eye scented with wasabi. The wonder of Robuchon's cooking and his menu is its simplicity and perfect artistry. He keeps his descriptions short, and throws in tiny accents, like the unheralded miniature enoki mushroom caps and the crispy pearl onion rings that helped make the wagyu dish soar.
|Le Mikado: light chocolate cream with crackly strudel and intense coffee dome
When he made his appearance, the chef, who commands 26 Michelin stars in 16 cities around the world, was gracious and charming, hardly the exacting taskmaster he is known to be in the kitchen. During my interview with Robuchon in 2006 at the time of his New York Atelier launch, he revealed that he has a weakness for gadgets. On this trip, the man who sings the praises of a simply grilled baby lamb over a wood fire and strives to strip food down to its unadorned essence said he satisfied another craving: he bought an iPad.

Thai food via Harold Dieterle lands in the West Village
Suddenly, however, we Villagers are graced with two pedigreed newcomers. I haven't tried Las Vegas import Lotus of Siam, at 9th Street and Fifth Avenue yet, but happily dug into Harold Dieterle's take on Thai at Kin Shop on Sixth Avenue at 11th Street.. The winner of the first season of Top Chef had no background in Thai cooking, but a trip to Thailand made such a deep impression he immersed himself in the cuisine and made it the animating passion of his second restaurant.
We loved California's Uncommon Breweries Siamese Twin Ale, a malty, Belgian-style amber infused with lemongrass and kaffir lime. It got along famously with a deeply flavored steamed pork meatball soup with bok choy and a grilled wagyu beef rib cap salad with fiery pickled cauliflower, gooseberries, and mint bathed in a fish sauce dressing. There was vinegary grilled egglplant, showered with sesame seeds and biting black pepper, and bay scallops in a mild curry were marred only slightly by stringy snap peas (something I've encountered lately in other green market snap peas). A comforting braised goat in Massaman curry showed off what Dieterle's Western culinary training brings to the table, slow cooked meats in favor of the more traditional Thai-style quick-firedproteins.
It's fantastic to have Kin Shop in the neighborhood, but stepping out into the cold on Sixth Avenue reminded us why at any price point, New York is a great eating town. Next door, a man stood in front of Ray's Pizza, an open box in his hand, scarfing a slice while his black lab sat by his side, panting eagerly after a taste. "He's had more pepperoni than I have," the man told us, just a tad defensively..

Pots and Pans 101
Since I love cookware, I jumped at the chance to interview the owner of Broadway Panhandler, Norman Kornbleuth, who's been in the business of outfitting New York kitchens since 1976. He knows a thing or two about pots and pans, since he's been surrounded by them since the early 1940s when he was a five-year-old at play in his father's institutional kitchen supply store on the Bowery.
Some of the more inside-Kitchen-Stadium details I picked up during my tour of BP with Kornbleuth didn't make it into my Edible Manhattan Story, Worth the Trip. So for those of you who live for discussions about the conductivity of aluminum, copper, or cast iron, this blog post is for you.
Some of the more inside-Kitchen-Stadium details I picked up during my tour of BP with Kornbleuth didn't make it into my Edible Manhattan Story, Worth the Trip. So for those of you who live for discussions about the conductivity of aluminum, copper, or cast iron, this blog post is for you.
The cast iron corner of the store (65 E. 8th Street) is given over to Lodge Logic brand pots, pans and other specialty items, such as molds for baking biscuits and corn-shaped cornbread. The company has been around for over 100 years, and Kornbleuth loves the fact that it's still family owned, as are many of the businesses with which he maintains decades-old ties. The Pittsburgh, Tenn.-based company's griddles have been a staple of military kitchens through many a foreign war, can take heat at full blast and leave impressive grill marks. Plus, as they become seasoned, they develop a non-stick quality without the chemicals of treated surfaces. If you think plain old cast iron is too campfire for your kitchen, French maker Le Creuset dresses it up in colored enamels, akin to throwing a sparkly jacket over your jumper to go from office to evening out.
It is copper, however, that is the king of conductivity, if expensive (a 3-piece starter set will run you $900) and high maintenance. It heats up with lightning speed and cools down almost as fast, so delicate foods and sauces don't overcook. It's so conductive, in fact, says Kornbleuth, that first-time users often burn foods. The Bourgeat brand that Broadway Panhandler carries is lined with a very thin layer of stainless steel; when copper comes in direct contact with food it emits harmful chemicals. Unlined copper, however, Kornbleuth told me, is extremely good for the non-reactive processes of melting sugar and beating egg whites. In the old days, copper was tin plated on one side, and nickel plated on the other, which meant that you had to re-tin your pots periodically. Two other drawbacks are that copper is a very soft metal and scratches easily, and that with use, it oxidizes and turns a dark, greenish hue.
The next best thing in kitchen conductivity is aluminum. BP sells inexpensive, straight aluminum cookware to restaurants. Yet since it also is reactive (for example it can discolor a white sauce and impart a faint metallic taste), most aluminum these days is coated. In the late 1960s, an American named John Ulam patented a bonding technology that used heat and pressure to create a non-reactive sandwich of stainless steel and aluminum. His invention became All-Clad, which is manufactured in Pittsburgh and now includes a copper core line. It's great at delivering heat evenly and efficiently, and is one of my kitchen standbys.
Although he looks at every new pot and pan on the market, Kornbleuth remains old school in his preferences. Except for delicate fish filets and egg dishes, he asserts, there is no need for treated surfaces if you bring cooking oil up to the proper temperature before sautéing or frying and avoid cooking foods straight out of the refrigerator.
"We don't' believe strongly in coated surfaces," he told me, "but we have started to sell ceramic coating, which Is an excellent substitute for non-stick." Although it seems to me most chefs turn a blind eye to the evidence that Teflon emits toxic gases (after all, these are the people who bring all their imagination to bear on pork belly and turn humble ingrecients into cassoulet; they're devoted to making the life we have enjoyable, not necessarily longer), it is good for us home cooks to know that newer ceramic-coated pans use none of the chemicals found in Teflon. Kornbleuth says the Swiss-made Swiss Diamond line features the best of the non-stick surfaces (its surface is actually infused with diamonds and it comes with a lifetime guarantee). He also carries non-stick lines from Cuisinart and Tramontina, and two new Italian lines from Bialetti and Mepra.
Happy cooking!

The Five Best Sondheim Rhymes
With Follies heading back to Broadway, the people behind that production will be thrilled to know that three of the top five Sondheim rhymes of all time are from that brittle and witty show (according to me, anyway).
He's simply the master of shimmering couplets that you can't get out of a thesaurus, and if you could, he wouldn't bore us with them. (Hey, "thesaurus"/"bore us"! That rhymes!)
Anyway, back to the master. His best:
(5) "The hands on the clock turn, but don't sing a nocturne just yet." --A Little Night Music
Upcoming Events
The same song has the equally dizzying, "Perpetual sunset is rather an unsettling thing."
(4) "This is how Samson was shorn / Each in her style a Delilah reborn." --from "Beautiful Girls," Follies
Not only do we get "shorn"/"reborn", but the internal rhyme of "style-a"/"Delilah". Pure genius.
(3) "Another chance to disapprove / Another brilliant zinger / Another reason not to move / Another vodka stinger / Aaaaaaaahhhh! I'll drink to that." --from "The Ladies Who Lunch," Company
We've all raised many a toast to that lyric, even while wearing a hat.
(2) "Putting thoughts of you aside in the South of France / Would I think of suicide? Darling, shall we dance?" --from "Could I Leave You?," Follies
"You aside"/"suicide" has always impressed me as the kind of thing I wish I had thought of.
(1) "When a person's personality is personable / He shouldn't oughta sit like a lump / It's harder than matador coercin' a bull / To try to get you off of your rump." --"You Could Drive a Person Crazy," Company
"Personable"/"coercin' a bull"? That's beyond cute and clever. And it's therefore the winner.
Thank you, Sondheim, oh rhymer divine.

Turkish Inflation Rate Declines to Year-Low of 7.3%
Turkey's inflation rate plunged to the lowest this year, vindicating central bank predictions of a slowdown and pushing bonds higher.
Inflation slowed to 7.3 percent in November from 8.6 percent the month before, the statistics office in Ankara said on its website today. It was expected at 8.2 percent, according to the median estimate of eight economists surveyed by Bloomberg. In the month, prices rose 0.03 percent.
Central bank Governor Durmus Yilmaz has kept the benchmark interest rate unchanged at an historic low of 7 percent for a year even as economic growth in the first half exceeded 10 percent. He forecast in October that inflation will slow in the coming months, making rate increases unnecessary before the last quarter of 2011.
Today's inflation figure is a "superb number" that shows "the central bank got it spot on again," said Tim Ash, head of emerging-market research at Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc in London, in an e-mailed note. "Bonds are going to fly on the back of this."
Yields on benchmark two-year lira bonds dropped 6 basis points to 7.65 percent at 10:35 a.m. local time. The lira gained 0.1 percent to 1.4828 per dollar.
Food prices fell 1.9 percent in November, the statistics agency said. The measure of core inflation, which excludes food and energy prices, was little changed from the previous month at 2.5 percent.
Close to Targets
The central bank predicts that inflation will end next year at 5.4 percent and slow to 5.1 percent in 2012, close to its targets. The bank next meets to set the benchmark one-week repo lending rate on Dec. 16.
Turkey's gross domestic product grew an annual 10.3 percent in the second quarter of the year, following an 11.7 percent jump in the first three months. The government predicts 6.8 percent growth for the full year.
The cost of goods leaving Turkish factories and mines rose 8.2 percent in the 12 months through November, down from 9.9 percent the previous month, the statistics agency said today. Producer prices fell 0.3 percent in the month.

NRC's Magwood Backs AP1000 Reactor Design for Majority Vote
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission member William Magwood joined two colleagues in voting to certify the AP1000 reactor from Toshiba Corp.'s Westinghouse Electric unit, providing the majority needed to back the design.
Magwood voted Dec. 6 for approval, according to a notice from the agency today. Southern Co. of Atlanta and Scana Corp. of Cayce, South Carolina, plan to build AP1000 reactors near existing plants.
NRC Chairman Gregory Jaczko and Commissioner George Apostolakis had also voted to certify the reactor design. The full commission hasn't scheduled a vote on the final certification rule, a step that will let companies buy the AP1000 reactor.
The commission is weighing separate rules to improve safety at U.S. reactors after an earthquake and tsunami in March triggered meltdowns and radiation leaks at Tokyo Electric Power Co.'s Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear plant.
"As we develop a regulatory response to Fukushima, it is certainly possible that some changes may need to be made to the AP1000 or at least to any" licenses that reference it, Magwood said in comments attached to his vote.

The Bump Baby Registry
Now is the perfect time to start your Baby Registry!START A REGISTRY
Is there anything to the idea that the older twin is usually the bossy one?
Some moms will swear that their firstborn is the more talkative, outgoing one, but others say the whole birth-order thing — even with twins — is hogwash. And while your twins may share many characteristics (similar hair and eye color, a taste for anything chocolaty), they're certainly going to grow up to be two separate people. Most parents of multiples say their children develop very different personalities even from an early age. And the more different they are, the more interesting life will be.
Plus more from The Bump:
How do I handle the stress of parenting multiples?
Should twins or triplets sleep in the same room?

I usually do not let the pasta fully cool after rinsing, so that it is warm when added to the mixture.
It pairs really well with burgers, hot dogs, turkey burgers, or veggie burgers on the grill.
If I have bagged baby spinach and/or feta cheese, I will throw them into the mix as well. The baby spinach I throw in after the pasta is added. The feta I add to the initial tomato mixture.

In your pre_get_posts hook, you're excluding all built-in post types, then only re-adding the
post post type. This means that any time we try to get anything from the database, it grabs all custom post types and posts, but no pages. Not so good for search results. ;)
The most immediate and obvious fix is this: http://pastebin.com/gXUUVAXf
However, this is not a great solution because it's not forward compatible. It doesn't take into account additional built-in post types that may surface. So I think that it's possible that you want to hook something other than
pre_get_posts OR change the way in which you exclude-then-include OR add more conditionals so it's not so greedy.
