It's five months away, but registration is open for the annual Arlington Police, Fire and Sheriff 9/11 Memorial 5K.
Marking the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks, this year the race is raising funds for the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors and the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation.
Early bird registration, through June 6, is $35. It's $40 after that.
The race will take place on Saturday, Sept. 10 in the Pentagon City area. It is limited to 5,000 runners.
"Since its inception, the Arlington Police, Fire & Sheriff 9/11 Memorial Race has had over 30,000 runners cross its finish line and has raised over $500,000 for 9/11-related charities," notes the race website.
Race organizers are also helping to promote a race this weekend in Alexandria.
The Run for 32 is being held at Cameron Run Regional Park (4001 Eisenhower Avenue) on Saturday, April 16. Held in remembrance of the victims of the 2007 Virginia Tech school shooting, the race helps to raise money for the Koshka Foundation, which was founded by one of the shooting's most critically injured survivors.
The grassy patch of land that runs along Columbia Pike and Washington Blvd by the Pentagon is slated to be home to the new 9/11 Pentagon Memorial Visitor Education Center by 2020.
"The Pentagon is the only 9/11 attack site without a visitor center or museum to explain the historic significance of what happened on that day. Among the 500,000+ visitors who come to the Memorial each year, few know how different this location is from all others in Washington, D.C.," said James Laychak, the president of the Pentagon Memorial Fund, in a press release.
The new visitor center location is in front of the Pentagon Memorial and on the flight path taken by Flight 77, which crashed into the Pentagon, killing 184 people on Sept. 11, 2001.
"The 9/11 Pentagon Visitor Education Center site is in a dramatic location, right where the attack of 9/11 took place and adjacent to the 9/11 Pentagon Memorial, Arlington National Cemetery and Air Force Memorial… This thoughtful arrangement creates a powerful backdrop to heighten the experience for visitors as they arrive at the 9/11 Pentagon Visitor Education Center," the Pentagon Memorial Fund said on its website.
The organization is currently looking for sponsors to help it reach a goal of $75 million for the visitor education center.
Once the center is completed, visitors will be able to learn more about the Sept. 11 events and the significance of the Pentagon Memorial through exhibits created from artifacts and content donated by the FBI, National Geographic, the Transportation Security Administration and National Museum of American History, among others.
The visitor center will help tell the stories of both the victims and survivors of the Pentagon attack and inform visitors about the U.S. response to the attacks. It will also offer walking audio tours.
"Tens of thousands of children and students come to the memorial each year and few know why this memorial is different from all others in Washington, D.C. in that it is located where the event took place. Many of those are eighth-graders on class trips that are too young to have experienced the tragedy of Sept. 11. We do not want to miss out on these teachable moments," the Pentagon Memorial Fund said.
The visitor center is expected to open in 2019 or 2020, according to a spokesman.
Columbia Pike is slated to be realigned as part of a land swap between Arlington County and the military that will allow for Arlington National Cemetery to be expanded around the planned 9/11 visitor center.

Sidewalks on the Pike Still Need Work — The new Freedman's Village Bridge over Columbia Pike includes new, wider sidewalks along the Pike, but there are problems. Just up from the new sidewalks, narrow old sidewalks have telephone poles in the middle of them, obstructing pedestrians and bicyclists. And there are multiple crossings among the new sidewalks that make the going slow. [Greater Greater Washington]
Letter Writer: Everything Is Awful — Most people probably find Arlington a pleasant place to live. But a resident who wrote a guest commentary about Arlington for a Falls Church newspaper finds a lot to dislike, warning Falls Church residents of Arlington as a "cautionary tale" of development gone wrong. The letter blasts Arlington's overcrowded schools, "scorched-earth development practices," "critical shortage of parkland and green space," "failed policies and inadequate planning," "poor local air quality," lack of mature tree canopy and "urban heat island effect." [Falls Church News-Press]

A motorcade carrying an I-beam from the World Trade Center could have some traffic impacts in Arlington over the weekend.
The I-beam, accompanied by a motorcade that will include a New York City fire engine, is expected to transported down the HOV lanes of I-395 Saturday afternoon. It will travel through the District, then Arlington, en route to the Marine Corps Museum in Triangle, Va.
From the Virginia Dept. of Transportation:
Motorists on I-95 can expect delays on Saturday, Oct. 4 due to a massive motorcade transporting an I-beam from the World Trade Center to the Marine Corps Museum.
The I-beam will be escorted by a New York City fire truck, with an estimated 500 to 1,500 motorcycles and support vehicles accompanying the truck. The convoy will enter Virginia from Washington, D.C. via the I-395 HOV lanes at approximately 3:30 p.m. Saturday. It will follow the southbound HOV lanes to a stretch of the new I-95 Express Lanes near Dumfries and use a new flyover ramp to merge onto the southbound I-95 regular lanes and exit at Joplin Road (Exit 150). VDOT will close the right regular lane of I-95 South near the merge and close the Joplin Road exit ramps in both directions.
Motorists will have two regular lanes in the area of Joplin Road and can expect traffic delays from approximately 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Motorists should also expect delays on Route 1 when the motorcade is traveling from Joplin Road to the museum.
The I-395/95 HOV lanes were already scheduled to be closed for 95 Express Lanes construction, beginning at 11 p.m. Friday, October 3 through 8 a.m. Sunday, October 5. The contractor, Fluor-Lane, will clear construction in the lanes Saturday afternoon to accommodate the motorcade. The HOV lanes will reopen in the northbound direction by 8 a.m. Sunday.
Fluor-Lane accelerated the opening of the flyover ramp to accommodate the motorcade and avoid the complete closure of I-95 that otherwise would have been required.
As seen above, the Arlington County Fire Department was presented with a steel beam from the World Trade Center in 2010.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony for the tribute room was held late last week.

Although this cabinet looks absolutely beautiful..it is made out of cheap press board. It dents and scratches easily. For the price I was expecting much better quality. It is sturdy once assembled and looks very nice.
My first delivery had some pieces broken in transit,second stand was ok other than one of the base boards was warped which made it harder to assemble.Overall I would say it is ok.

Medical Marijuana Laws: A State-By-State Comparison
Since California first passed its medical marijuana law in 1996, the District of Columbia and 15 other states have followed suit. But the laws vary drastically state by state — from being liberal in California and Colorado to restrictive in New Mexico and New Jersey. The law in Maryland simply protects the seriously ill from being prosecuted, but it doesn't set up a system for patients to obtain the herb.

The only thing that's been announced since ASEI allegedly got the biggest contract in the company's history is the departure of the CEO.
If they ever do make an announcement, expect something like this:
"The good news is we got this contract, the bad news is our scanner isn't approved, so the contract is meaningless and we have to compete against 2 superior companies for the contract IF our scanner ever does get approved. Oh and by the way, we've been waiting for approval for 2 years"

Its not going to help the England team at all. It will give young players more of a chance of breaking through at some clubs, but you could quite possibly still end up with a squad completely full of foreigners. If you look at our own team, in a few years time, we'll have Rafael, Fabio, Macheda, Petrucci, Ljaljic to name a few who would all be able to be part of the 8 home grown players, yet not one of them is British. The only way it could eventually end up promoting British youth, is if UEFA decided to make any rules on the transfer of foreign youngsters below the age of 18. At current, it seems an almost pointless rule as it pretty much changes nothing

"It is not enough to know all the programming languages, you should have at least one that you could tell, that's my expertise!"
I've start coding when I was in third year college, then one of programming language that I enjoy learning was PHP & MySQL. I've focused my learning on web development using PHP and I enjoy learning about it. When I was supposed to graduate in my degree I was able to render my On-the-Job Training in a Web Development company and where I'm currently employed. I love my profession, I love coding PHP and creating websites. Now my focus is on how to enhanced my skills, and know the latest trend in Web Development.

Sorry if the question is worded wrong - I don't know the right word for what I'm asking for! :)
Say, you have some simple C program like:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
int a=2;
printf("Hello World %d\n", a);
return 0;
Typically, this would have to be saved in a file (say,
hello.c); then we run
gcc on the source file and obtain executable file - and if we compiled in debug information, then we can use
gdb on the executable, to step through lines of code, and inspect variables.
What I would like to have, is basically some sort of a "C" shell - similar to the Python shell; in the sense that I can have a sequence of Python commands in a file (a script) - or I can just paste the same commands in the shell, and they will execute the same. In respect to the simple program above, this is what I'd like to be able to do (where
C> represents the imagined prompt):
C> #include <stdio.h>
(stdio.h included)
C> int a=2;
C> printf("Hello World %d\n", a);
Hello World 2
In other words, I'd like to be able to execute individual C commands interactively (I'm guessing this would represent on-the-fly compilation of sorts?). Initially I was misled by the name of the C shell (
csh) - but I don't think it will be able to execute C commands on the fly.
So, first and foremost, I'd like to know if it is possible somehow to persuade, say,
gdb to perform in this manner? If not, is there anything else that would allow me to do something similar (some special shell, maybe)?
As for the context - I have some code where I have problems troubleshooting pointers between structs and such; here the way gdb can printout structs works very well - however, to isolate the problem, I have to make new source files, paste in data, compile and debug all over again. In this case, I'd much rather have the possibility to paste several structs (and their initialization commands) in some sort of a shell - and then, inspect using
printf (or even better, something akin to
Just for the record - I'm not really persuaded something like this really exists; but I thought I'd ask anyways :)
Thanks in advance for any answers,
EDIT: I was a bit busy, so haven't had time to review all answers yet for accept (sorry :) ); just wanted to add a little comment re:"interpreted vs. machine code"; or as mentioned by @doron:
The problem with running C /C++ source interactively is that the compiler is not able to perform line by line interpretation of the code.
I am fully aware of this - but let's imagine a command line application (could even be an interpreted one), that gives you a prompt with a command line interface. At start, let's assume this application generates this simple "text file" in memory:
int main()
return 0;
Then, the application simply waits for a text to be entered at the prompt, and ENTER to be pressed; and upon a new line:
- The application checks:
- if the line starts with
#include, then it is added below the
@@HEADER@@- but above the
int main()line - in the temp file
- anything else, goes below
@@MAIN@@line - but above
return 0;line - in the temp file
- if the line starts with
- the temp file is stripped of
@@MAIN@@lines, and saved to disk as
gccis called to compile
temp.cand generate
- if fail, notify user, exit
gdbis called to run the
temp.outexecutable, with a breakpoint set at the
return 0;line
- if fail, notify user, exit
- execution is returned to the prompt; the next commands the user enters, are in fact passed to
gdb(so the user can use commands like
p variableto inspect) - until the user presses, say, Ctrl+1 to exit
- Ctrl+1 -
gdbexits, control is returned to our application - which waits for the next code line all over again.. etc
- (subsequent code line entries are kept in the temp file - placed below the last entry from the same category)
Obviously, I wouldn't expect to be able to paste the entire linux kernel code into an application like this, and expect it to work :) However, I would expect to be able to paste in a couple of
structs, and to inspect the results of statements like, say:
char dat = (char) (*(int16_t*)(my->structure->pdata) >> 32 & 0xFF) ^ 0x88;
... so I'm sure in what is the proper syntax to use (which is usually what I mess up with) - without the overhead of rebuilding and debugging the entire software, just to figure out whether I should have moved a right parenthesis before or after the asterisk sign (in the cases when such an action doesn't raise a compilation error, of course).
Now, I'm not sure of the entire scope of problems that can arise from a simplistic application architecture as above. But, it's an example, that simply points that something like a "C shell" (for relatively simple sessions/programs) would be conceptually doable, by also using
gcc and
gdb - without any serious clashes with the, otherwise, strict distinction between 'machine code' and 'interpreted' languages.

Yahoo: Mermaid
Only search within 100 degree, why not use Yahoo! 360 degree search engine!
100 degree has a double meaning, one is the angle of a search area and one is a metaphor to Baidu, Yahoo's no.1 search engine competitor in China. In Chinese, Baidu means 100 degree.

Print ad for an internet search engine. Hmmm...
The guy doesn't see the mermaids because his range of sight is only 100 degrees. Ok, I'm getting that. But the playfulness of the image doesn't quite bite. Google has much more playful images in their homepage logos, and they are images that reflect the Google brand attitude/character/look.
But the wordplay is very good. Baidu should consider a change of name ;)
however, why not directly use 百度?
100 degree is a little bit twisted, possibly.
I like the idea, the art direction could take another thought.

"I never would have made it if I could not have laughed. It lifted me momentarily out of this horrible situation just enough to make it livable."
~ Viktor E. Frankl, MD
In my DBT Skills Group (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), when we work on the "Distress Tolerance" module I blend in best practices from my therapeutic laughter training.
I model my therapeutic laughter practice upon the shoulders and in the spirit of Dr. Viktor Frankl. I have studied and worked with his logotherapy protocol for years, using Dr. Frankl's Paradoxical Intention, Laughter Therapy and other "counter intuitive" methods to support you in your transformation process.
Dr. Frankl survived his imprisonment in Auschwitz by developing these powerful resilience tools and advanced cognitive behavioral "self talk" techniques to endure his ordeal. He shared his experience, strength and hope in his book, Man's Search for Meaning.
Learning to embrace the incongruities, absurdities and paradoxes of your life is the beginning of transcending them. Then you, too, will find yourself feeling more peaceful and useful, and ultimately much happier.

Supports 3G very well and works out of the boxWorks very well for 3G (I am using Tata Docomo data connection). Configured automatically after I inserted the SIM. I didn't have to even set the APN. For those who wish to use it through wifi, insert the SIM and use a USB power adapter. Now, you are ready to go and you can access the gateway to configure WEP or WPA-PSK. For those who wish to use it through USB, it will install the drivers and dialer automatically. Make sure you have inserted SIM before using one of these two configs.

Nice Product!!!I purchased the Huawei e355 for my friend... my testing with BSNL 3G on this datacard gave me about 4 Mbps speed with a little lower signal strength in my home in Chennai. My friend tested with Airtel 3G at his house and got a speed of about 8 Mbps... the product is a good value for money considering the features packed in the datacard. I advice any one having more than one wifi devices and planning to get a universal datacard can really go for this one.

Fox, now 89, and his crew had just delivered their explosives on a German target when their aircraft was damaged by Nazi defenders on April 13, 1944. The pilot managed to keep the B-17 under control and in the air.

Google AdWords Enhanced Campaigns: The Benefits, Drawbacks and Implications
Today Google announced enhanced AdWords campaigns, a significant upgrade that gives local businesses more flexibility and control in how they reach consumers. It also highlights Google's desire to make mobile advertising more appealing to small businesses.
What's new?
The new enhanced campaigns essentially offer businesses the ability to streamline and fine-tune their AdWords campaigns to deliver relevant and timely ads based on signals like their location, time of day and device type. Google offers this example:
A breakfast cafe wants to reach people nearby searching for "coffee" or "breakfast" on a smartphone. Using bid adjustments, with three simple entries, they can bid 25% higher for people searching a half-mile away, 20% lower for searches after 11am, and 50% higher for searches on smartphones. These bid adjustments can apply to all ads and all keywords in one single campaign.
Another key feature of enhanced campaigns is optimization for varying user contexts. For example, a business with physical locations and website can show ads with click-to-call and location extensions to users searching on their smartphones; users searching on a PC will be shown an ad for the company's e-commerce site. This can now be done in a single campaign.
Also included in the rollout of enhanced AdWords campaigns is advanced reporting to measure new conversion types

Cardrona stuntman Ian Soanes has successfully ridden down
Dunedin's Baldwin St on a motorcycle on one wheel in a
world-first today.
Encouraged by the crowd which lined either side of the
world's steepest street for the 5pm attempt, Mr Soanes edged
his way carefully down the down the slope to complete the
wheelie descent in about a minute.
"Man, that was a whole lot harder than I thought it would
be," he said at the bottom.
Not content with the descent, the daredevil then rode back up
the street on one wheel.
Mr Soanes, who owns and operates the Cardrona Adventure Park
in the Cardrona Valley, has fashioned a 30-year stunt career
during which he has jumped monster trucks over aeroplanes and
through burning double-decker buses, been the first person to
wheel-stand a tractor and performed leaps on motorcycles.

Taken Home to White Oak where I was raised and educated in the World's finest three-room university, White Oak School--now known as tribal member, artisan and historian D.P. Newton's Civil War Museum. Spent my time there with the other Patawomecks during World War Two getting lessons between the sounds of the big guns being tested at Dahlgren. They rattled the windows as the concussion came up through our Land. It was the sound of Freedom fighting back. We loved it. Attended Falmouth High and graduated from Stafford High. Graduated from a little Indian School in a place once known as Middle Plantation. Turned 78 nearly a year ago. Not much else to say, except, I am known as Johnny Mac."
Kate Waller Barrett (1857-1925), gently raised daughter of a prominent Stafford County family, was confronted as a young woman by a heart-wrenching scene that played out before her in her home. It stirred her heart and propelled her into a public life. The humanitarian work inspired by Kate Waller Barrett's experience led eventually to established shelters and services across this country and abroad known generally as the Florence Crittenton Mission.
In the summer of 1910, hundreds of electric lights shed their radiance on the Rappahannock River for the opening of Casino Island Park.
This interview airs beginning June 8.
D. P. Newton has preserved and arranged a most remarkable record of life during an era of turmoil in our nation. The White Oak Civil War Museum reflects his passion and dedication to accuracy in compiling this unique and extensive collection. In this video, host Debby Klein meets Mr. Newton at the museum on CRRL Presents, a Central Rappahannock Regional Library production.
Follow Marlborough Point Road down to the eastern tip of Stafford County, and you will pass by lots of new housing mushrooming into the forests and fields that were once favored by both the Native Americans and colonial settlers. This section of the county is home to not just centuries of local history but millennia.
The year 2002 celebrated the 250th anniversary of the foundation of "George Washington's Mother Lodge." According to the authors of The History of Freemasonry in Virginia, "Fredericksburg Lodge No. 4 stands out as one of the brightest Lodges in the early history of Freemasonry in Virginia." Since 1752 it has maintained a continuous Masonic presence in Fredericksburg. Many of the town's prominent citizens have been members, and many of its prominent buildings have Masonic cornerstones.
"Fredericksburg; may it increase and its commerce flourish." --Toast by George Washington, 1784
Fredericksburg-area residents and visitors have the opportunity to walk in the footsteps of Washington and Lincoln. Both presidents were entertained lavishly across the river at Chatham estate, but under very different circumstances.
To Washington, this small town of Fredericksburg was his childhood home, populated by many friends and relatives. His sojourns here are noted in his diary with a pleasant familiarity. Lincoln's view of Fredericksburg could hardly be of greater contrast, for Fredericksburg was a Union-occupied town, and although the president was certainly welcomed by his own men, he was not welcomed by Confederate townspeople. In the chill of that December, Fredericksburg would become the site of one of the Union's worst defeats.
There have been newspapers published in
What was it like to live long ago when Virginia belonged to England? When there were no cars, no computers, few hospitals and no free public schools?
Without cars, trains or airplanes, people traveled by boat, horseback or on foot by "shank's mare". The reason so many colonial towns were located next to rivers is that often the roads were terrible seas of mud. It was so much easier to travel on the rivers!
Fredericksburg's Mary Ball Washington was an intrepid 18th-century woman who raised five children alone. The oldest became the first President of the United States.
Mary Washington's name and heritage are alive and well in the Fredericksburg area and beyond. Her home is at the corner of Lewis and Charles streets; the Mary Washington Monument is on Washington Avenue, which was originally Mary Washington Avenue.

This loose powder foundation provides light-to-medium coverage and broad spectrum sun protection with a whopping 10% titanium dioxide formula. True to claims, this is a gentle, fragrance-free formula. L'Oreal makes a big deal about this being talc-free, but talc isn't a bad ingredient to begin with so you can ignore that. (In fact they use talc in sister product, Match Mineral Gentle Mineral Powder, so even they don't think it's really a problem.)
The shade range is extensive with flattering shades in "warms, neutrals, and cools", and it caters to fair to deep skin tones. If you apply this with a heavy hand it can look cakey, but otherwise it's got a natural-looking effect.
The absorbent formula is best for normal to oily skin types, although the inclusion of mica gives off a slightly shiny finish which isn't the best for already oily skin—assuming you don't want to add ingredients that make oily skin look even shinier.
Our major complaint is with the packaging. The loose powder is dispensed through a jar-style sifter which we found quite messy to use, and the attached brush is low quality so you're better off using your own full-size powder brush. Other than that, this is worth checking out if you're a fan of loose powders and can look past the undue hype surrounding mineral makeup.

L'Oreal Paris At-A-Glance
Strengths: Budget-friendly prices; good makeup removers; wide assortment of self-tanning options; one of the best, most comprehensive makeup collections at the drugstore, with superb options in almost every category; the mascaras are a tough act to follow.
Weaknesses: Jar packaging hinders some of the skincare formulas; many of their skincare formulas contain problematic amounts of fragrance and/or other irritants; exaggerated anti-aging claims.
L'Oreal's extensive makeup collection retains its stature as one of the better selections at the drugstore, though they have stiff competition from Revlon and, in some cases, sister company Maybelline New York. In recent years L'Oreal has made significant strides with foundation shades, powder textures, concealers, and, of course, superlative mascaras that rarely fail to impress. Their lipsticks are excellent and you will find many L'Oreal makeup products have a Lancome counterpart, and that the differences are minor—if there are any at all.
L'Oreal's displays in many drugstores reflect better-organized products and shade categories (though testers are still scarce). Given the number of lipsticks they sell, it only makes sense to put them in color families so consumers have a better shopping experience. Their True Match products are also sensibly laid out, but the rest of the foundations aren't as organized, likely due to the smaller selection of shades. Speaking of foundations, L'Oreal has made further strides by offering more that provide sufficient UVA protection. Revlon still has the edge for consistently launching impressive foundations with sunscreen, but at least L'Oreal is (finally) catching up.
The bottom line is that every category of L'Oreal's makeup has some winning (and in some cases, benchmark-setting) products.
Unfortunately, despite the brands' enormous presence in the beauty industry, L'Oreal's moisturizers and treatment products are a nearly all unremarkable and repetitive. When it comes to moisturizers or serums, just about anything from Dove, Olay, Neutrogena, or Aveeno is preferred. L'Oreal does well with most of their cleansers, along with scrubs and self-tanning products, but given the widespread availability and financial resources of this line, they could be doing so much more. The good news is their makeup has made major strides and now ranks as the best overall color collection at the drugstore—imagine the results if their skin care followed suit.

There was a rumor Serena Williams was dating Bulgarian tennis player Grigor Dimitriov after they were seen rooting for each other at the Sony Ericsson Open, but with these new pics it obvious that Grigor and Serena are just friends because she is dating his coach, Patrick Mouratoglou!!! Patrick has also been coaching Serena since her loss at the French Open. They look quite comfy, no? The coaching/dating sitch is clearly working out because since they've started working with each other she has won: Wimbledon, Olympic Gold, and the US Open. Well, well, well, indeedy!

I'm working on a Django web application that offers the users the possibility to buy courses. To do this, each user has a wallet that they fund with money, which they can use for the available products.
My uncertainty lies with the way I should keep track of all these transactions and of each user's balance. I imagine that there should be a site account with its own wallet and a payment processor account with its own wallet. I do record each transaction both ways, but I don't know what the balance of the payment processor account should be, if I should fund it constantly and what not.
I hope my explanation makes sense.

Rappahannock River
No report, other than that catfish and crappie can be caught. Some dedicated bass anglers are hitting deeper structures and pulling out bass.
Potomac River
Winter Harbor reported that some anglers were trying for rockfish, with little luck.
The rockfish are out there, but windy weather and the holiday weekend kept many anglers in. Look for the fish to get bigger and fatter through the first of the year.
Pern's Supermarket on Rt. 3 reported four deer checked in, to include a nice 10-point buck by a local man.
Hunters have seen more deer lately, but many are small fawns or yearlings. Be sure before you pull the trigger, you are shooting at what you think it is!
Squirrels are hard to find in most areas due to the lack of acorns. Look for holly trees. They are eating lots of holly berries now.

When Canadian defender Karl Ouimette steps onto the field as a member of the Jacksonville Armada, he'll complete a rare feat. He will have played in MLS, NASL and USL all in the same season.
And he said that, until I asked him about it on Tuesday, he hadn't thought about it at all.
"Playing in all three leagues? It hadn't crossed my mind," said Ouimette, who was loaned out by the New York Red Bulls to the NASL's Armada. "As a player you always want to focus on what's ahead —and you don't worry about what's behind you."
Ouimette arrived in Jacksonville last Monday; a week before the Red Bulls brass told him that they wanted him to go to the NASL. Ouimette had started the season getting regular minutes for the Red Bulls, but was later sent down to the USL where became the infamous victim of a kick to the back from Pittsburgh's Romeo Parkes. Right after the incident, the Riverhounds released Parkes — even before USL suspended the player for the rest of the 2016 season.
Ouimette said he has no lasting ill effects from that kick to be back — and he's simply itching to play.
"The goal for a soccer player is to get in the most games possible," he said. "That was not going to happen at the Red Bulls because of the number of players at centre back."

The severe frost of last night had not damaged the pump as the check now seems to be sufficient to prevent any pumping and filling of the pump-head with water."
Former Lanesboro physician, Johan C. Hvoslef, March. 31, 1907 Time seemed suspended, as it always does between Christmas and the New Year, until one morning when we turned a faucet and no water came out. Being prepared for such an emergency, we dragged out our standby water jugs and a pail to pee in. Because the water had been alternately surging then trickling out of our faucets for about a week, we had known something was going wrong, but had shoved it to the backs of our minds. My husband, Art, immediately called Richard Larson, the well driller and pump man who had installed a new pump for us in the summer of 2001. He came out with his son the same day. They decided that the problem was a malfunctioning part of the pitless mechanism. This mechanism came with our first pump 26 years ago and is no longer being manufactured. Richard, however, had a similar part, so he installed it. My unpro-fessional understanding of a pitless is that it's the big iron knob above ground attached to an iron tube reaching below the frost line. Its purpose is to allow a cap of air to form from below the frost line up through the above ground mechanisms so the water doesn't freeze. Because of the malfunctioning part, our water had frozen, so Richard and his son thawed it with a propane canister and hose that blew heat on the pipes. We soon had running water again. We learned that it might take awhile for the mechanism to work properly, that we should run the water frequently to help build up the necessary cap of air. Conditions improved as the day went on. The water still surged, but not as much as before. Two days later, we were in the same fix, so we hauled out the standby water and the pee bucket and called Richard who returned with his wife, thawed our frozen water and said he would try to get the correct part from one of his suppliers. We then had about a week of warm weather, but colder weather was coming. Art decided he would use his air compressor to blow the pipes free of water in hopes that the compressor would add the needed cap of air. Our first step was to turn one of our faucets wide open. The one that would work best, we decided, was the faucet with a hose attached that we use to blow water into the toilet when the drain begins to freeze. The water can also run from there into the bathtub where it wouldn't make a mess. However, when Art turned the faucet, it broke off and water gushed through the opening in the pipe like it come out of a fire hydrant. Art tried to hold it back with his hand while shouting at me to turn off all the water that led to the house. Being shamefully ignorant when it comes to such things, I didn't know where the lever was and his yelling only made me less likely to find out. He finally let go of the pipe and turned the lever himself. Our next step was to go into town for a new faucet and the necessary connectors. We left the water to sink into the bathroom floor. When we returned home, our first job was to unweld the old parts and weld the new parts together. Finally, we were ready to blow out the pipes. We happily succeeded, but to our disappointment, the water immediately went back to its old tricks. Luckily, the next day, Richard called and said he had the correct part. He came out as promised and installed the part, but it didn't seem to work. He reminded us that it might take awhile for the cap of air to form. We learned that we could replace the whole top of the pitless for about $200.00. If that didn't work, it looked like repairs would cost thousands of dollars. By the next day, our pump and the pitless were working as they should. We are still nervous, though. We often go outside and listen to the pump to make sure it's working correctly. We have both learned more than we ever wanted to about pitless mechanisms. And we are very grateful to the pump man.
