Data only customers should be able to choose email rather than sms notificationsStatus: Not For Us
by timbo_uk on 16-01-2012 18:48
What it offers: The choice of how a data only sim customer is notified when almost used up data allowance; as some data only devices are unable to receive an SMS Proposal: Customer logs into account and changes from the default SMS warning to either the account email or another specified email address Benefits: Customer; better notification where using a device that does not support SMS GiffGaff: Lower costs as not paying to send SMS to customer Viability: Great idea?
Status: Not For Us
This already happens.
this is a good idea!
i hadnt thought about it but yeah your right. good idea
You don't need special software to connect to mobile broadband (you can connect using the standard windows network connection wizard) but you would need software to get SMS. Given that the two do not go hand in hand, an email option should be provided as suggested.
inspiron42 not everything runs windows I actually want to use for this unit: http://www.parrot.com/uk/products/hands-free-car-k
its/parrot-asteroid Hence the email request.
Sounds like a good idea to me! Not too sure why they do it thru SMS when your on the net, it pops up on your screen with 3. So yes emails would allot better then an SMS
Yep, sounds like a good solid idea to me. Kudos.
An adjunct to this idea:
Most people who use a data only SIM probably have another mobile number.
So how about a switch option in 'My Details' where SMS messages can be directed to the Alternative Number if one is provided?
@timbo_uk windows was only an example which I used to support your idea. I do believe there are one or two users out there.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Even people of modest means have the wherewithal to be extravagantly generous to the nonprofit cultural organizations in their midst.
How? They can join.
Obviously, membership is even more important now, when even recession-proof entities are being forced to cut budgets and programs and staffers. Membership provides funds for day-to-day operations, which doesn't sound like much although it's crucial and hard to come by.
Funding sources prefer to identify themselves with specific projects, as in "American Express Presents Harbor Jazz," a high-profile series many years ago at Snug Harbor.
Even more important, healthy membership totals give a place clout. A deep fanbase commands the attention of potential funders and donors. A small circle of rooters doesn't.
Naturally, there are dividends for members. Belonging always conveys generous benefits: Free or discounted admission, invitations and/or discounted admission to special events, gift shop/merchandise discounts plus tax benefits.
The most inventive offer restaurant discounts, travel packages, special access.
Virtually all local cultural nonprofits — from the Council on the Arts and Humanities for Staten Island (COAHSI) and the 83-acre Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanical Garden to the tiny Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art — offer memberships that start at low rates: $25. They make good gifts.
Next to membership, shopping in museum stores (or ordering from them online) is a great gift to a community-based institution.
It's doubly useful. It pumps the earned income figure and discharges holiday gift obligations pleasantly and painlessly. (Museum stores tend to be small, uncrowded, easy to navigate.)
Nearly all of the borough's North Shore "culturals" will be accessible Saturday during "Holiday Stroll," a one-day not-for-profit shopping bonanza in and around the Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanical Garden at 1000 Richmond Terr., Livingston.
Friends of Fire, the Island-based artist/craftpersons collective, will offer members' work — functional pottery, art pottery and other ceramics, textile art — for sale from 10 a.m. in the Unitarian Church at 312 Fillmore St. in New Brighton, one block east of Snug Harbor.
Simultaneously, the church (a venue for numerous concerts) will hold its Jolly Holly Fair (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.). Insiders say it's a good place to look for high-end second-hand treasures, homemade food and seasonal plants.
Parents/grandparents: Santa Claus is expected at 1 p.m.
Down the block, at 814 Richmond Terr. (entrance on Tysen Street), the Creative Photographers Guild will put price tags on members' work (some of its members are accomplished professionals).
Among them are Miguel Angel, Richard Capuozzo, Connie Frisch-Cherniak, Flint Gennari, Robin George, Robert Haber, Stephen Joyce, Marilyn Kiss, Ken Martin, Len Rachlin, George Roos, Virginia Ross, Joseph Verhey and Fritz (Steven) Weiss.
Nearby, at Christ Episcopal Church, 76 Franklin Ave., New Brighton, where the Serenade Series (classical music) is performed every season, the St. Nicholas Fair will peddle homemade food, books and holiday greens. Storyteller Bobaloo will spin yarns for kids.
Snug Harbor's shop (on Cottage Row) usually stocks crystal (Galway) china, books (historical, nautical), clothing, jewelry, candy and calendars.
The Staten Island Children's Museum fits a lot of modest-sized merchandise in a small area. This is a great place to buy the kind of little stocking stuffers (25 cents to $3) that kids love: Rubbery bugs and insects, pencils, minerals, etc.
The museum's stock of Maurice Sendak books was depleted a couple of weeks ago, but a shipment is expected shortly. On Saturday (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.), the Art Lab, the school in Building H, will show/sell art by faculty members and students.
Nearby in Building D, several groups — Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art, Snug Harbor Studio Artists and a select group of Island-based artists — will pool their resources at the Noble Maritime Collection.
The Noble museum's own shop is the place to look for all things marine and/or seaworthy: Books, art, toys, cards/note paper, stocking stuffers and reproductions.
Off its hilltop perch for the day, Jacques Marchais will offer small, handmade thank'as (handmade scroll paintings on silk) for $25. They are produced in Nepal. Also: Calendars, jewelry, prayer wheels and books about Buddhism and the Himalayas.
Artists Elle Finn, Nelleke Nix, Sarah Yuster and Mary Campbell, among others, will sell art (and other items).
At the Staten Island Museum Archives, recently relocated at Snug Harbor, the museum will peddle its own merchandise: Calendars, games and books and periodicals of local interest, particularly the new works of in-house historian Patricia Salmon.
A Christmas celebration with no shopping? Never. "Christmas at Richmond Town" has gifting possibilities.
The well-stocked shops in the village, at 441 Clarke Ave., specialize in items — reproductions typically — that have history, like vintage sweets (rock candy, Sugar Daddies), dollhouse furnishings, hand-dipped candles, handmade tin Christmas tree ornaments, apple butter and old school playthings (recorders, marbles, pick-up sticks, jacks, pop guns and dominoes).
"Christmas at Richmond Town" is next Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
At the Garibaldi-Meucci Museum, 420 Tompkins Ave., Rosebank, La Befana, the old lady of Christmas in Italy, distributes gifts to good little bambini. The merchandise at this museum is mostly Italian. Look for the well-priced series of cookbooks (Italian-American classics) published by the Sons of Italy.
Christmas at the Conference House, 7455 Hylan Blvd., Tottenville, arrives Dec.13 (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Inside the utterly picturesque 18th-century fieldstone manor house, there will be gifts for kids, complimentary cider and a Christmas market (crafts, toys, etc.). At the Visitors Center, volunteers will sell herbs, potpourri, crafts and baked goods.

TAMPA, FLA. -- Republicans were eager to hear from Mitt Romney, their presidential candidate, at the Republican National Convention in Tampa on Thursday.
But Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis (R-East Shore/Brooklyn) was also looking forward to hearing from Florida U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, who gave the speech nominating Romney.
Ms. Malliotakis' mother fled Cuba in 1959 to escape Fidel Castro, much like Rubio's family did. And, like Rubio, Ms. Malliotakis is a Hispanic Republican elected to office in 2010.
As the Republican Party makes a significant push to include the nation's Hispanic population among its ranks, Ms. Malliotakis said, she "could not be more proud to see Senator Rubio take center stage at this year's event."
The delegates have already been addressed by some other recently elected Hispanic Republicans, including Gov. Brian Sandoval of Nevada, Gov. Luis Fortuno of Puerto Rico, Gov. Susana Martinez of New Mexico, as well as Ted Cruz of Texas, a Cuban-American running for U.S. Senate.
She said placing Rubio in such a prime role is evidence of the concerted effort the GOP has put forth in courting the nation's growing Hispanic population.
"Many people think that the Democrats have a monopoly over all minorities, including Hispanics, but that couldn't be further from the truth," said Ms. Malliotakis, whose father is Greek. "Like my mother, who witnessed what the overreach of government can do to a country, Hispanics are coming to realize that the Republican Party is more in line with their principles and their view of what role the government should play."
She said that governors Fortuno, Martinez and Sandoval have already driven remarkable economic turnarounds "and Senator Rubio is now a national leader of our party."
"And with Ted Cruz on his way to Washington, it's clear that the GOP's substantial efforts in appealing to Hispanics are beginning to show dividends," she said. "I couldn't be more excited to see Senator Rubio take center stage tonight."

The NBA offseason is a funny time during which every player claims to be in great shape, every team holds high hopes and the Boston Celtics, at least this summer, say all the right things while causing Boston sports fans to do somersaults of love.
Dionte Christmas became the latest Celtic to make endearing comments, explaining to ESPN Boston's Chris Forsberg the story of how he turned down guaranteed overseas money because he didn't want to regret turning down a chance at the NBA.
Christmas signed a partially-guaranteed contract with the Celtics after excelling in summer league with Boston's entry. As the roster stands now, he's likely the 15th member of the Celtics. But if the team makes another acquisition or another training camp invitee exceeds expectations, Christmas' spot could be in serious trouble.
He's okay with the risk because he's closer to his childhood goals than ever before.
"Basically, this is my dream," said an emotional Christmas. "I played overseas for the last three years and this was actually like my money year overseas. I played real well over there last year and this is the year I would go back over there and make a lot of money. But this opportunity came and God blessed me with this opportunity with the Celtics.
"I played very well in Orlando [summer league], very well in Vegas, and when [Celtics president of basketball operations] Danny Ainge and [director of player personnel] Austin [Ainge] came with the proposal to my agent, it was my dream, and I couldn't turn it down. I had a long talk with my dad, and he basically was just saying, 'It's not all about the money. It's about chasing your dream.' He still wakes up with regrets, because my dad was an athlete, and he [had to] forego his dreams to do certain things, but he still wakes up with regrets. He was like, 'You don't want to do that, wake up with regrets, saying you could have, but you didn't.'"
Christmas has spent his summer working out, often with Jason Terry. Christmas said he works out between four to five hours per day and is a lot more focused now than he ever has been.
And he should be. His dreams are within reach, but he still needs to pull them a little closer.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - UAB got a balanced effort and one of its best games of the season in Saturday's 80-57 win over Rice.
Rice came into Birmingham as Conference USA's worst team and are now 5-20, 1-10 with a depleted roster size and height-wise, but the Blazers didn't play down to the competition. An efficient shooting performance (50 percent) combined with a season-low seven turnovers led to the easy win.
Don't forget the posterizing dunk by Preston Purifoy, which was caught in this still frame from UAB photographer Jimmy Mitchell.
Here are three points from the game.
1. In UAB's primary 7-man roster, anybody can take over. Last night, it was Jordan Swing and Preston Purifoy with 19 points each. Fahro Alihodzic added 11 points off the bench.
"We can be a team that's hard to guard," UAB head coach Jerod Haase said. "We've got versatility and a variety of lineups we can put out there. We have a variety of guys that can shoot the basketball. It is an advantage for us that other teams can't say, 'Hey take that guy and point him really hard. If we run our offense hard, different guys will get different looks at different times and we have a lot of capable guys so I think it's really beneficial."
2. Expanding the rotation. Alexander Scotland-Williamson and Isiah Jones weren't just afterthoughts in yesterday's game, even though it was a blowout. Scotland-Williamson, especially, as he got 13 minutes with five rebounds and a block. He scored just one point, but if CUSA rules were NBA rules, he'd have gotten continuation on an and-1 play in the first half. Jones did get six minutes, which is much more than the past few games.
"I'm trying to give, maybe not doing a great job of it, Hoopy and Scotty some minutes here and there," Haase said. "They'll get more if they play better. Scotty really gave good energy and played really well in the first half and he played well in the second half as well. It's partly to be fresh and he's playing well in practice and doing a good job in practice and I want to reward him in games."
3. Rice's top player is Tamir Jackson, a 6-foot-3 guard who was a one-time commitment to UAB many years ago. It seems like UAB and then-coach Mike Davis. backed off him. Jackson has to take over the role as go-to guy for the Owls and has probably been asked to take a lot of shots, some difficult, for Rice. Jackson scored 21 points on 9-of-16 shots in an efficient individual game, but he had no help around him.
CONFERENCE USA STANDINGS (excludes UCF, which is 17-8, 7-4, but ineligible for postseason)
1. Memphis (22-3, 11-0)
2. Southern Miss (20-6, 9-2)
4. Tulsa (14-11, 6-5)
5. Tulane (17-9, 5-6)
6. East Carolina (14-9, 5-6)
7. Houston (15-9, 4-7)
9. Marshall (11-15, 4-7)
11. Rice (5-20, 1-10)

SEATTLE -- The Oregon team that went 8-23 last season, including a pitiful 2-16 in the Pacific-10 Conference, has disappeared.
In its place is a young, hungry, aggressive Ducks squad that is fast and fearless and full of confidence after Saturday's stunning 90-79 victory over No.17 Washington at Bank of America Arena.
The Huskies (10-3, 1-1 Pac-10) had won 18 consecutive games at home and featured marquee guards Isaiah Thomas, Venoy Overton and Abdul Gaddy.
But Oregon (10-4, 2-0) won the backcourt war with its lethal combination of Tajuan Porter and junior college transfer (and early season sensation) Malcolm Armstead, whose slashing drives and dishes for easy baskets tormented coach Lorenzo Romar's team all afternoon.
The Ducks bothered Washington with a combination of a 2-3 matchup zone and man-to-man defense.
They stopped the Huskies' vaunted transition game in its tracks.
They won the rebounding battle.
They got their hands in the passing lanes.
They took on the most hostile arena in the Pac-10 and skipped away with the program's first sweep of the Washington schools since 2000.
No wonder UO coach Ernie Kent was so happy afterward.
"I told the team this place has the best atmosphere (in the league) by far right now," Kent said. "And for us to come in here and beat a team that's won 18. ... "
It was no fluke. Armstead gives Oregon a different dimension at guard, erratic center Michael Dunigan is playing the best basketball of his life -- he got his second consecutive double-double -- and the Ducks are also getting solid contributions from newcomers Jamil Wilson and E.J. Singler.
Taking care of the Huskies, on the heels of a double-overtime win at Washington State on Thursday, may be headline material at the Pac-10 office. But ask the Ducks, and they'll tell you they saw it coming.
"We had nothing to lose," said Dunigan, who had 20 points and 14 rebounds. "It's who has the biggest heart, and right now we have the biggest heart."
Said Kent: "There's not many teams that are going to come here (to the state of Washington) and get two wins. These programs are too good. And for us to do it, as young as we are and as early as we are in the Pac-10, I'm just proud of these kids because they worked so hard.
"This didn't just happen last year. The (seeds) for this were planted last year."
It was Oregon's first win over the Huskies in Seattle since Feb. 17, 2001, and the Ducks' first win over a ranked opponent since a 71-66 victory over No. 23 Stanford at McArthur Court on Jan. 13, 2008.
And, of course, two conference wins -- Oregon is in first place in the Pac-10 this morning -- represent the Ducks' total for all of last season.
Told that the Ducks are unrecognizable from where they were a year ago, Dunigan said simply, "yeah."
Armstead had 21 points and six assists, and Porter had 16 points, including four three-pointers. Wilson and Teondre Williams each scored eight.
The Huskies, who grew increasingly frustrated in the second half, were held to 45 percent shooting and 10 fast-break points.
Imagine how badly Washington would have taken it on the chin Saturday without this stat: the Huskies shot 35 free throws to Oregon's 17.
Washington got 25 points from Thomas, 16 from Quincy Pondexter and 14 from Overton. But when push came to shove in the second half after Huskies had fallen behind by 15, it was Porter and Armstead controlling play and it was the Huskies who were chasing.
"I would say (Armstead) is like Isaiah (Thomas), but not quite because I think he's better," Dunigan said. "He's got the point-guard role down. He can score, but he likes to pass first."
Kent had the "no kidding" quote of the day when he said, "When we spread the floor, Armstead makes us a lot better. He's a point guard who can handle pressure."
A point guard who can also beat defenders on the dribble and score with a running left-handed bank shot that is reminiscent of a Hall of Fame NBA player Lenny Wilkens, who was doing TV color commentary at the game.
After the victory, the Ducks were low-key and Armstead was humble.
"It was a good win, we had good energy and we had good focus," he said. "We kept our composure and we were able to capitalize on the little mistakes they made."
The Huskies aren't used to being handled in such a manner in front of their fans.
"Oregon outplayed us," Pondexter said. "There's not much else you can say. We didn't come out with the same heart, passion and desire that they had. ... I thought we would come out more prepared. Not necessarily from a coaching standpoint but mentally, wanting to play as a team. I really don't know how to explain it."
Romar gave the Ducks' backcourt its due.
"They did a tremendous job controlling the tempo," he said of Armstead and Porter. "I just thought their guards were tremendous. They were very poised. They didn't allow our pressure to get to them at all. ... Armstead, he's really good."
The scary thought for Pac-10 opponents is that Armstead, and the Ducks, are likely to get better as the season progresses. It's still early, even if Kent woke up this morning and saw his team leading the Pac-10 standings.
"The conference is up for grabs a little bit," Kent said. "We just have to go home and protect our home court."
That task begins next Sunday, when the Ducks play host to Oregon State in the first Civil War basketball game of the season.

The Aid Award
Aid for Study Abroad
Aid for Eating Clubs
Renewing Financial Aid
Cost of Attendance
What does it cost to attend Princeton for a year?
The cost of attendance at Princeton includes tuition, room, board, books and personal expenses. Review the most current cost of attendance.
Qualifying for Aid
How do you decide who gets financial aid?
Financial aid is awarded based on need only. We use the information you supply on your financial aid application and supporting documents to determine how much support we will provide.
What does "need-blind" mean?
"Need-blind" means that Princeton accepts students regardless of their ability to pay the cost of attendance and meets their full demonstrated need with a "no loan" aid package. There is no disadvantage of any kind in the admission process for financial aid applicants.
Before I apply, can I get a sense of whether I might qualify for aid?
Yes. Just enter your financial information into the Princeton Financial Aid Estimator to get a quick idea of how much aid you may be qualified to receive. The Princeton Financial Aid Estimator is completely confidential and in no way affects your application for admission or financial aid
Do you give scholarships for academic merit, special talents or athletic ability?
No. All financial aid awards are based solely on need. Learn more about how aid is assigned in the Undergraduate Financial Aid Information and Application Instructions.
Are international students eligible for financial aid?
Yes. Princeton is one of only five schools nationwide that doesn't limit the financial aid available to international students. Admission is offered to students regardless of their ability to pay, and the full need of every admitted international student is met just as it is for U.S. students
Applying for Aid
How and when do I apply for financial aid?
You should apply for financial aid by November 1 (Early Action) or February 1 (Regular Decision). We encourage all students to use our easy online financial aid application. Learn more about applying for financial aid in the Undergraduate Financial Aid Information and Application Instructions.
Will applying for aid hurt my chance of being admitted to Princeton?
No. There is no disadvantage whatsoever in the admission process for financial aid applicants. Princeton has a need-blind admission policy, ensuring equality of opportunity for students who cannot afford the full cost of attendance. This policy covers all admission applicants, including international students. Learn more about how our aid program works.
My parents are separated or divorced. Do they both need to submit financial information for my aid application?
Yes. Princeton requires both parents to provide financial information in most cases. See the Undergraduate Financial Aid Information and Application Instructions for more information about exceptions.
Do I need to supply my parents' financial information if I am a self-supporting student?
When awarding aid, we require parental financial information for all students, with very few exceptions.
If I do not apply for aid as a freshman and my family circumstances change later, can I request aid after my first year?
Yes. Students can apply for aid at any point during their time at Princeton. An explanation of the change in circumstances may be required.
The Aid Award
When will I know if I will receive financial aid?
If you are admitted to Princeton and have applied for aid, you will receive a financial aid award along with your offer of admission.
What kinds of funds will be included in my aid award?
If you receive financial aid, your award will normally include a Princeton grant and a campus job, as well as any outside scholarships you earn. More information about these types of aid is available in the Undergraduate Financial Aid Information and Application Instructions.
Will I need to take out loans?
Over 10 years ago, Princeton eliminated student loans from financial aid awards, replacing them with grants. Since then, no Princeton student has been required to borrow as part of a basic aid package. Eighty-four percent of recent Princeton seniors graduated debt free.
Does the "no loan" policy mean I would not be allowed to borrow if I wanted to take a student loan?
Loans are available, and some students request an optional education loan to replace a shortfall in the expected student earnings (term-time job or summer employment) or cover expenses not included in the standard student budget. Learn more about financing options.
For students who borrow, what is the average debt at graduation?
For students who choose to borrow, the average total indebtedness is about $8,500.
If I qualify for aid, how much assistance will I receive?
At Princeton, we are committed to meeting 100 percent of the calculated need of each aid applicant based on an individual evaluation by a financial aid counselor. We make this determination using the information you provide on your financial aid application. Learn more about aid awards in the Undergraduate Financial Aid Information and Application Instructions. You can also use the Princeton Financial Aid Estimator to see how much aid might be offered based on your particular situation.
If my aid award includes a campus job, how many hours per week will I work?
We typically expect freshmen to work 9 hours per week, which allows them ample time for studies and extracurricular activities. Learn more about campus employment in the Undergraduate Financial Aid Information and Application Instructions.
What if I win an outside scholarship?
Outside scholarships from private sources are used to reduce the campus job and summer savings portions of the aid package. Once the earnings amounts are fully replaced, additional outside scholarship funds can be used toward the purchase of a personal computer. Princeton grant funds are reduced only after these other options have been exhausted. Learn more about how outside scholarships impact the financial aid award in the Undergraduate Financial Aid Information and Application Instructions.
Aid for Study Abroad
Can I use financial aid to study abroad?
Aid students who receive approval from the Office of International Programs for a semester or year abroad will be eligible for funding based on the cost of the program and amount of their family contribution. Princeton sponsored summer programs are not included since they have their own funds to support student costs.
Aid for Eating Clubs
Is it true that eating clubs for juniors and seniors are too expensive for aid students to join?
The meal allowance included in the aid packages of juniors and seniors is based on the approximate average cost of an eating club board plan. This policy provides access to a variety of dining options for all aid students, including the eating clubs.
Renewing Financial Aid
Do I need to reapply for financial aid each year?
For each year of attendance at Princeton, students must submit a new financial aid application. The application is evaluated according to the same need-based guidelines that were in effect when the student was admitted.
Will I receive the same amount of financial aid every year?
It is our policy to meet students' full demonstrated need each year. Award amounts may vary from year to year, based on changes in a family's financial circumstances and Princeton's cost of attendance.
Do I have to maintain a minimum GPA to remain eligible for financial aid?
There is no minimum GPA requirement to remain on financial aid, but students must continue to maintain satisfactory academic progress.

Shaun Livingston, continuing his comeback from a devastating knee injury several years ago, spent most of last season with the Cavs and often looked like not only a fine off-the-bench play-maker, but also a player who could fill in as a part-time starter if necessary.
Livingston, though, is an unrestricted free agent, and though another alliance with the Cavs isn't out of the question, he's also drawing interest from other teams -- such as the Brooklyn Nets, as Tim Bontemps writes for the New York Post.
Several reports have mentioned that the Cavaliers have an interest in Darren Collison, who played for the Dallas Mavericks last season. Collison, in his four-year NBA career, has often started and always played significant minutes. His career per-game averages are 12.1 points and 5.2 assists in 29.5 minutes, while shooting 46 percent from the field -- including 36 percent on 3-pointers -- and 86 percent at the foul line.
Brendan Bowers writes for Stepien Rules that Collison has a great attitude that rubs off on his teammates and refers to coach Frank Vogel and center Roy Hibbert of the Indiana Pacers, for whom Collison played two seasons:
Plain Dealer Cavaliers beat writer Mary Schmitt Boyer wrote on Monday that the Cavaliers were reportedly scheduled to meet today with free agent power forward Earl Clark, a Los Angeles Laker last season......his commitment to team is real and contagious.
I know people attach those type of taglines to guys frivolously, but the way people like Frank Vogel and Roy Hibbert spoke about Collison convinced me those intangibles are real in his case. Collison is a student of the game who spends his free time watching film, which is something I'm sure attracted him to Mike Brown and the Cavs.
Though he's struggled some over the last two seasons, he's still a capable starter in this league if needed. At the same time, however, he's also a guy who'd be willing to support Irving in his continued to development and I'd be excited to see Collison land in Cleveland when the free agent dusts eventually settles.
Bob Finnan writes for the News-Herald and Lorain Morning Journal that the Cavs are apparently interested in Clark though they already have apparent depth at power forward:
More NBA free agency and trade talkThey already have three on their roster, including first overall draft pick Anthony Bennett of UNLV.
Most observers are trying to figure out where Bennett will get his minutes, with the 6-foot-9, 227-pound Tristan Thompson already ahead of him on the depth chart. Cavs general manager Chris Grant said on draft night Bennett is primarily a '4,' even though he might be able to play a few minutes at small forward.
Journeyman Kevin Jones is still hanging around. He has a league-minimum contract for next year, but it's not guaranteed.
The 6-11 Anderson Varejao, who is expected to start at center under Coach Mike Brown, might be better suited to play power forward in a perfect world.
The Cavaliers might check on the status of big men Pau Gasol, Omer Asik and Robin Lopez. (Fear The Sword -- from Monday)
Sources say a three-team deal between the Los Angeles Clippers, Phoenix Suns and Milwaukee Bucks has been reached. The Clippers will get J.J. Redick from the Bucks and guard Jared Dudley from the Suns. The Suns get point guard Eric Bledsoe and small forward Caron Butler from the Clippers. The Bucks – who facilitated the deal with a sign-and-trade of Redick – get two second-round draft picks. (By Adrian Wojnarowski, Yahoo! Sports)

SOUTH HADLEY – A deep sigh could be heard after Town Accountant William Sutter finished his presentation on the town's 2012 budget to the Selectboard on Tuesday.
It was a sigh that reverberated throughout the Pioneer Valley, as towns face the prospect of rising costs, greater need and less help from the state.
For example, because state aid has declined, South Hadley is having to depend more than ever on its reserves and on property taxes, said Sutter.
In 2003, the town drew 53 percent of its operating revenues from taxes, he said. In 2011 it was 61 percent, and in 2012, he estimates it will rise to 62 percent.
Budget requests from the public schools have remained level for the past couple of years, but Sutter said that was due to stimulus funding from the government. Now those government programs have run out.
The schools consume by far the largest chunk of a town's operating budget, but they are making sacrifices, too.
At a School Committee meeting, South Hadley High School principal Daniel Smith said he had hoped to add a late bus for struggling students who need extra help with homework after school. The committee brought up options, but it all sounded like goodbye to that idea.
In South Hadley, the schools account for $18,793,008 in 2011, out of a town budget of $25,964,121.
Every department in town is sacrificing. James Reidy, director of the South Hadley DPW, said he had to make do with fewer snow plowers in this difficult winter. When two men retired, there were no funds to replace them.
Sutter said the town has no control over some of the costs that go up, such as insurance and retirement funds.
What hasn't even been figured in, he said, are the 2011 costs that are sure to come this spring, when the ravages of this particular winter come to light.
Wage and salary increases that have not yet been negotiated may further stress the 2012 budget.
Town Administrator Paul Beecher said the town is at a pivotal point, when new approaches must be taken. "This is a good time to look at the future," he said. "We have to change our priorities."
"We have to look very closely at the way we do business," agreed John Hine, chairman of the Selectboard. Board member Bruce McCulloch asks the public to weigh in on "where they would be willing to see cuts."
The Selectboard agreed that regionalization, or collaborating with other towns on areas like public health, will be among the avenues that should be pursued, but cautioned that such solutions will take time.

STANFORD, Calif. - It may not have been a happy homecoming for Oregon's Jeremiah Masoli, but it was a productive one. He threw for a career-high 334 yards and three touchdowns in Saturday's 51-42 loss to Stanford. He also broke Dennis Dixon's record for career rushing by a quarterback, now with 1,209 yards.
Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh talked after the game about the Cardinal's defensive plan for Masoli, who is dangerous running the zone read option.
"We treated him like a running back in a wildcat offense," Harbaugh said. "I thought our staff did a good job. You know, they cracked us a few times. No question about that. Their offense did just such a great job of running their linemen down the line of scrimmage. But yet the ball never moves, It stays right behind the center."
Masoli carried 10 times for 55 yards.

Irina Bokova launches UN World Water Development Report in Marseille
At the launch of the UN World Water Development Report in Marseille, UNESCO Director-General, Irina Bokova highlighted water as the common denominator of most global challenges. "Water is crucial for agriculture and nutrition, it is essential for food security, it is vital for health, it is needed in all processes to produce electricity or energy," said the Director-General.
The Director-General underlined the great potential in women as they stand at the heart of sustainable water management, saying "the report shows how supporting and training women to manage and control water resources can change the life of an entire community".
This 4th World Water Report was launched by UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova and the Chair of UN-Water Michel Jarraud at the 6th World Water Forum in Marseille (France) on 12 March. The Forum, held once every three years since 1997, was opened by French Prime Minister Francois Fillon. Its objective is to address water related challenges that our world is facing and to place water high on all political agendas.
The Director-General also participated in a side event entitled "Water Resources and Gender Equality: what is the link?" where she focused on the challenges women face and their vital role. Irina Bokova called for new leadership on freshwater saying "this leadership must bring together all actors involved in using and managing water (…) it must acknowledge, integrate and strengthen the roles of women".

Looks like Gangnam Style is (finally, thankfully) over! That was so 2012, really.
So two months into 2013, we've emerged with an equally viral, soon-to-be annoying dance video. This time, it comes from a bunch of teens in Australia. If you haven't seen or heard of the "Harlem Shake" yet, well, you just haven't been on social media lately, have you?
Honestly, the original, I don't find entertaining at all, but the puppy version, well, you got me for sure!
Here is a medley of fun-loving pups shaking their little tails off:

text: In Washington every new administration swears it will be more open (transparent) than the previous sneaks. Transparency means we can see what they are doing; but frequently what our legislators are doing openly is not what we think. A good example is the legislative device "unanimous consent." In our democracy we count on majority rule, so when the Senate or House votes on legislation we understand yea and nay and unanimous consent is perfection. Recently in front of our ever vigilant eyes, with the consent of the House, Senate and president, Speaker of the House Boehner used "unanimous consent" to sneak in approval of the 2 month payroll tax extension. Of course this is a legal maneuver. In the most recent sleight of hand "unanimous consent" cut off all possibility of discussion and approved the deception. The process could have been stopped by a voting member of the House rising to say I do not agree but it is the consent of all present and Washington was home for the holidays. The process was done visibly but was it done honestly? Surely there is an element of honesty in transparency but both the House and Senate have ways to maneuver legislative situations in ways that befuddle us in honest ways. They can suspend rules, change the rules, filibuster, use reconciliation, the slaughter solution, table it, kill it and use "unanimous consent" like a magician uses the other hand. Most of our elected representatives understand how this is all accomplished. The good old boys (gobs) club is responsible for making things honestly appear and disappear. The gobs don't have a secret handshake, password or exclusive tattoo but they know there are few who really understand the shenanigans of their exclusive group. We the people no longer know the definition of transparency.

On April 30, 10,000 students gathered at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia to compete in the 19th annual FIRST Championship. Every year FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) hosts a robotics competition for high school students to build and operate robots. The students are given kits containing hundreds of parts and six weeks to build a robot that could compete in a soccer-like game called "Breakaway" where the robots had to climb over obstacles and score goals on the other teams. This year's winning team was composed of three teams from across the country, "Beach Cities Robotics" from Redondo Beach, CA, "The HOT Team" from Milford, MI, and "Bobcat Robotics" from South Windsor, CT. You can see a full list of the winners here.
This year's kits were full of supplies donated by companies eager to help young people get mor involved and more interested in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) education and careers. One such company is igus® who has created the Y.E.S. program for students in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Igus' Y.E.S. (Young Engineers Support) supplied Energy Chain cable carriers, igus® plastic bearings, igubal® spherical bearings, and DryLin® linear bearings to the FIRST robotics kits.
Y.E.S.'s mission is to provide donations to students who show a passion for engineering and they continue to donate through competitions such as Botball, and Best Robotics.

A new recycling technology developed in Japan will allow recycling of 100 percent of all electronic appliance waste.
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., widely known as Panasonic, has developed a recycling technology in which valuable metals can be safely recovered from plastic-coated wires and other electronics equipment waste. The process also uses technology from Kusatsu Electric Co. Organic compounds in plastics, notably carbon, are transformed into harmless gases using the catalytic properties of titanium oxide (TiO2).
The technology is in use now at the Matsushita Eco Technology Center (METEC) to recover copper from degassing coils covered with vinyl chloride tape found in CRT TVs. Mixed plastic waste previously incinerated is treated and changed into non-toxic gases at METEC. The method also helps reduce carbon dioxide emissions because little external energy source is required in the gasification process.
According to Panasonic, about 80 percent by weight of all collected home appliances in Japan is recycled into metallic and plastic materials. The remaining 20 percent is currently regarded as non-recyclable waste, e.g. rubber, mixed glass and mixed plastic waste.

The author of The Dawkins Letters did not set out to write a rebuttal of Professor Richard Dawkins' much-publicised The God Delusion. In common with many Christians, he was deeply disturbed at the virulence of Dawkins' attack on those he considered deluded. Robertson's response was not to answer ferocity with ferocity, intolerance with intolerance, nor to drown out the opponent with louder, rather than sounder, arguments. The Publishers note that the author was appalled at the shallowness of arguments advanced against Dawkins and others of that ilk. As a result, Robertson wrote an open letter to Dawkins which was available only in his own locality. " somehow, (it) found its way onto Dawkins' website, where it generated the largest response, before or since." This spurred the author to write further letters.
The final letter of the series that comprises this little book of 144 pages is addressed to the reader. Entitled "Why believe?" it provides ten reasons he asks his readers to consider. He is open in his desire that they may lead the reader to seek God's face and His forgiveness. He writes with that worthy objective in view.
The ten letters that comprise the main thrust of the book deal with myths he seeks to debunk. They have intriguing titles, including The Myth of the Higher Consciousness, The Myth of Atheist Rationality and Tolerance, The Myth of the Cruel Old Testament God, and The Myth of the Immoral Bible. Each of these themes is dealt with from an unpretentious standpoint. He exposes the arrogance of much that Dawkins asserts without resorting to caricaturing him.
Unlike John Lennox's God's Undertaker, Robertson does not provide an index or reference his sources as carefully. He does discuss books and articles, some of which he recommends to his readers, but distracts the reader by including that discussion as a lengthy introduction to his "Why believe?" chapter. Most readers will find The Dawkins Letters a refreshingly gracious answer to the vicious attacks of Professor Dawkins.
The unusual title of this 192-page paperback may not immediately reveal its purpose. Its focus is more evident in its sub-title; "Has Science Buried God?". Lennox observes that "the notion that there is an intelligent cause behind the universe, far from being recent, is as ancient as philosophy and religion themselves". The publication of Darwins's Origin of Species in 1859 was considered an attack on that fundamental belief. It was not the first such attack and did not go unopposed; its challenges were addressed by Samuel Wilberforce, a leading Anglican bishop, and scientists such as Lord Kelvin.
In the most public of ways Professor Richard Dawkins has poured out his virulent opposition to all who own there is a Creator and so in particular to all who by faith know a personal conscious relationship with that one Creator God, who has given us the faculties "to think, to speak, to read, to write, to do". John Lennox has taken issue with Dawkins and his philosophy in an equally public way. God's Undertaker is one part of his response to the often-intemperate assertions of Dawkins that there is no evidence-based proof that there is a God.
God's Undertaker does not treat the Biblical revelation of the great work of creation. Nonetheless, the author does not hide his faith in Christ. He follows the Pauline example of not always reasoning out of the Scriptures (Acts 17.2) but in certain circumstances from a standpoint that addresses the basis on which his opponents reason (cp. Acts 24.25). Lennox's careful reasoning does expose more than hairline cracks in the polished performances of those opponents. For some readers that careful reasoning will be demanding. However, unlike many works on the theme of God's Undertaker Lennox does not require of the reader a tolerance of large numbers or a knowledge of molecular biology.
As one would expect, the author's sources are carefully documented, and, although only a book of 192 pages, it includes a two-page index. God's Undertaker will reward a range of readers prepared to weigh the author's careful arguments.

UPDATE: Report: Former Upper Peninsula man arrested for Colorado triple homicide after month-long search
KINGSFORD, MI — A man native to the Upper Peninsula is wanted by police after authorities discovered three bodies at a burned out home last week in Colorado.
Authorities believe the suspect, identified as 59-year-old Harry Mapps, is responsible for the deaths of 33-year-old Dawn Roderick and her parents, Reginald Tuttle, 51, and Kim Tuttle, 55, according to the Associated Press.
The victims were found shot to death after their bodies were recovered from the home that was set afire after the killings, according to the Iron Mountain's The Daily News. Police determined the fire "had more than one point of origin" and consider it an arson.
Mapps is a former handyman who rented a room at the residence in Rye, Colo., media reports stated. He grew up in Kingsford, authorities told the Daily News.
Surveillance footage captured Mapps cashing checks belonging to one of the victims that totaled $8,000 during the day of the fire on Nov. 27.
Police say Mapps might take advantage of veterans or homeless services wherever he is staying and should be considered armed and dangerous, The Daily News reports.
The suspect is 6 feet tall, weighs 135 pounds and has red hair and blue eyes with a graying beard. He last was spotted driving a blue 2004 Chrysler Town & Country minivan with either Texas or Colorado license plates, according to the AP.

RARITAN TOWNSHIP — After a 7-7 start to the season, reaching the NJSIAA Tournament North Jersey, Section 2, Group IV final might not have seemed like a realistic possibility to the Montgomery field hockey team.
But after rolling through their first three state tournament games, the sectional final is exactly where the Cougars found themselves.
"We had a shaky start but that was due to injury, illness and unfortunate events," Montgomery head coach Tiffany Trockenbrod said. "But towards the end of the season when we started coming together, I thought it was possible."
Sixth-seeded Montgomery gave top-seeded Hunterdon Central everything it had, but the Red Devils captured the sectional title on the strength of a goal from Kendall Nickel with 16:20 left to secure a 1-0 win last night at Stewart Field at Hunterdon Central High.
"We knew that we were probably under-seeded because of our record, but we knew we could hold our own with Hunterdon Central and clearly we did," Montgomery's standout senior midfielder Allison Mannheimer said.
The Cougars managed a solid advantage in the corners department (nine to six) but couldn't penetrate the Red Devils' back line.
"They packed their team in there," said Mannheimer, headed to Syracuse to continue her athletic and academic careers. "They basically had their entire team in the circle, so it was really hard to get it anywhere. That's why we had so many corners, because it hit their feet more frequently."
Montgomery had dodged a few Hunterdon Central opportunities early, but the Red Devils finally cashed in when Kailey Dalgauer ripped a blast from the left point that Nickel redirected home.
"It was a shot on a goal and a nice tip-in," Trockenbrod said. "There's not much you can do with a tip-in like that. It's hard to defend that."
Still, with over 45 minutes left to play, the Cougars weren't just going to concede defeat.
"After it happened, we realized that we still had plenty of time to score ourselves and that we had to give it everything we had because it was all or nothing," Mannheimer said.
Montgomery just couldn't translate that effort into the equalizer.
"It's heartbreaking," Trockenbrod said. "You want so much for them, and then when it doesn't happen it's heartbreaking."
The loss closed the scholastic careers of eight Montgomery seniors, a large portion of whom have spent the last four years with the varsity.
"They're all my best friends, so it's going to be weird not seeing them every day after school," Mannheimer said. "We did what we loved together every day, so it's definitely going to be different."

TRENTON — In June, like many other graduates, Jawaun Washington, 18, will toss his cap in the air and celebrate his hard work, defying predictions early in his high school days that he wouldn't make it.
Washington is one of 36 Trenton Central High School seniors who were found in their eighth- or ninth-grade year to be at risk for dropping out.
With the odds stacked against him, Washington overcame the statistics surrounding the dismal dropout rate at TCHS. Now he is planning his college career.
Washington had been selected through a recruitment day offered at TCHS to participate in the Trenton Leaders of Tomorrow mentor program, which is run by a group of nonprofit organizations in Mercer County. Since its inception three years ago, the mentor program has paired at-risk freshmen with a junior mentor and an adult mentor, and altogether assisted more than 300 students.
Of the 36 kids in the first class of mentees who are now seniors, 34 will not only graduate but also will go to college, and two will join the military.
Washington said mentors offer words of wisdom on sensitive topics relating to health, abuse, social skills, and how to deal with everyday stress.
"I've actually learned a lot being here — about life," Washington said.
He transferred to TCHS from Capital Preparatory Charter High School and said he had a difficult time adjusting. During his sophomore year, he was taking home C's.
"But I never considered dropping out," Washington said.
Now, he's applying to several colleges throughout the state to pursue a degree in sociology, he said.
Washington wants to be an inspiration for people who give up in high school.
According to the United Way of Greater Mercer County, 50 percent of Trenton Central High School students don't graduate on time and 40 percent drop out by their sophomore year.
"It doesn't matter if it's inner city or in the suburbs. Mentorship programs work in all cases, everywhere," said Herbert Klein, president and CEO of the local United Way.
Klein said one-on-one personal attention and real trust between mentors and mentees is what really works.
TCHS West student mentor Lauren Johnson, 19, said she knows there are distractions in and out of school, but she doesn't let them stand in her way.
"I see a lot of kids going in the wrong direction," said Johnson, a mentor who was paired with an at-risk student. "We actually make a difference."
Johnson has been accepted into The College of New Jersey and Rutgers University, but she really wants to go to Cornell University or Howard University.
In addition to the student mentors, there are as many as 20 adult mentors including city resident and 1981 TCHS graduate Patrick Hall, 48.
Hall said he was heavily involved in athletics during his high school career, but, he said, he never felt like he had enough guidance to pursue anything beyond a high school diploma.
Eventually, he found his niche in the electronics repair business, and is now a successful businessman.
He tells students they can do anything they put their mind to.
"I decided I didn't like the situations that were happening in Trenton," he said.
"My favorite part about helping is getting them to open up and be creative and getting them to think."
In April, the students will go to Princeton University's Princeton-Blairstown Center in Hardwick Township for a four-day camp-style retreat.
They'll take part in team-building and learn conflict-resolution skills.
"It's about the kids getting the most value out of the program," said Carol Christofferson, the center's director of development.
United Way reports that only one member of the Trenton Leaders of Tomorrow has withdrawn from school in three years while 90 percent of student mentors graduated on time, and 97 percent of those mentors reported that they found the program to be highly successful in helping them remain focused on graduating from high school.
The program also said that many of the graduating seniors are looking forward to attending prestigious colleges including Rider University, Rutgers University, TCNJ, Virginia State University or Ithaca University, to name a few. One student is awaiting acceptance from Brown University.
In addition to the United Way of Greater Mercer County and the Princeton Blairstown Center, other nonprofit organizations that have a hand in the youth mentor program at TCHS are Big Brothers Big Sisters, which creates mentoring matches of students; Princeton Center for Leadership Training, which trains student mentors; and Leadership Trenton, which recruits adult mentors.

Notre Dame-De-Consolation - The Charity Sale Bazaar - Commemoration Site
By Coline Duvall
T his chapel was built in memory of the terrible fire that destroyed the Charity Sales Bazaar on May 4th 1897. It stands today on rue Jean Goujon in the François 1er district.
On May 4th 1897, a terrible fire destroyed entirely the Bazaar of the annual charity sales.
The Duchess of Alençon, sister to the Empress Elizabeth of Austria, also known as "Sissi", perished there with 140 other people.
Three years later, the Chapel Notre Dame-de-Consolation was erected to remember those who left their lives for others.
The Chapel Notre Dame-de-Consolation was, at first, to be of a bigger structure, but due to the nature of the grounds (which laid then on the site of the ancient Seine river bed), the foundations had to be reinforced leading then to reduce a great deal the actual building.
The Charity Sale Bazaar
In 1823, the street "Jean Goujon" where stood then the François 1er district, was opened.
In 1814 the Champs-Elysées had still a very countryside look.
It was the Colonel de Breck who was in charge of the edification of the whole area.
There was there, in 1897, a vast 100 square meter piece of land. In 1830, Victor Hugo settled on "rue Jean Goujon" at number 9 (his house does not exist anymore and has been replaced by a more modern building). The aspect of the district was still very deserted. It will only start to expand during the Second Empire under Louis Philippe. The Vilquery Hotel settled as early as 1864 and in 1897 the street was already well dwelled.
That is when, in 1897, it was decided to have the Charity Sale Bazaar built. It was at first a long structure of 80 m long by 13 m wide. Its access was made by way of three steps and two doors. Built in pinewood with painted papier mâché it was very well decorated. It had a glass roof covered and decorated with curtains and fine chiffons.
Aimed to the charity sales it included 22 boutiques with a main alley in the middle.
Mr. Chaperon (who also contributed in 1855 to the Universal Exhibition on the Champs-Elysées) was in charge of the decoration and was to be ready pour opening on May 4th 1897. (Middle-age style, decorated with «papier mâché») 150 charity organizations were to be represented.
The Charity Sales
In1885, under the Third Republic the first Charity sales appeared and aristocrats like Mme Lebaudy (the Sugar Company) took part in them. 150 charity organizations were represented and among them, the Rescue Company of the War Injured, the St Ambroise Parish Church (whose representative was Mme de Laigle), Sainte Clotilde Charity Organization, the Raincy Orphanage.
Duchess Sophie Charlotte of Alençon, previously engaged to Louis II of Bavaria, married the duc d'Alençon Ferdinand of Orleans, son of the duc de Nemours, and grandson of Louis-Philippe. Their spiritual ascension remained very personal and their complicity very discreet and full of respect. She fell into religious matters to make up for the various psychological problems the Wittelsbachs had to face up. Part of the Dominican Third-Order, she became entirely devoted to her charity organizations.
She was to be one of the first victims of the big fire.
On May 4th 1897, the Charity sales received the blessing of the Archbishop of Paris at 3 p.m. At 16.15 p.m. the fire started to demolish the entire structure.
Everything went so fast. 112 corpses were first found. Finally, 140 corpses were to be discovered in the terrible disaster. 250 injured were saved but remained hurt in body and soul until their last living day. Whole families were in fact completely ruined and destroyed by this dramatic disaster.
The dead corpses were quickly carried to the nearby Palais of industry for identification.
Notre Dame-de-Consolation Chapel
The grounds were re-bought by Mrs. De Castellane for the building of the Chapel.
The Figaro newspaper launched a national subscription. Many offers fluctuated to help towards the building of the site. The Chapel, being over the Seine river bed (then the Bièvre), the foundations had to be stronger than first planned. Its building took longer than anticipated.
The Chapel, neo-Louis XVI (fleurs de lys) style was inaugurated on May 4th 1901.
It contains the funerary stands (heavy urns) made of Valais, Pyrenees marble.
The main cupola was restored. It is a private monument and remains to the victim families charge.
In 1950 it was rented to the Italian community and has, since, become the shelter of an Italian community of priests. It houses today a cultural center and offers various activities. It also provides Italian lessons.
The Remembrance Gallery
Classified historic monument in 1982 it includes a vast corridor where many cenotaphs of the victims can be seen. On a marble wall one can read the names of the various dead families who perished that day. Most of the victims were women and small-age children.
In the side gallery one can see photos, various documents explaining the tragedy. Several artifacts supposed to be sold in the Charity Sales, which were found on the actual site after the fire is also shown there.
A bust of the Duchess of Alençon also stands there.
On several wooden panels one can read various newspaper articles written of the "Petit Journal" and also other newspapers, which were released the days subsequent to the disaster and also several feedbacks from neighbors or rescued witnesses.
This chapel opened on May 4th 1801, four years on the anniversary date of the disaster.
It remains today a place of worship but is, before all, a place of commemoration to the families of victims who gave their lives that terrible day of 1897.

Episode 10: "Colors, Camouflage & Cupcake Day"
The crew exchanged their piping bags for paintball guns in this episode of Cake Boss.
Granted, an over-the-top cake had to be made, but Buddy continued to show other sides of the bakery, like their signature flower cupcakes.
Buddy comes up with a first annual Cupcake Day event for the bakery. Though he claims it's the trend right now, there's no solid, valid reason to want to make cupcakes instead of the usual cannolis on Cannoli Day. Could it simply be to just change things up? Did they run out of cannoli shells?
The crew also expressed confusion and was not as excited about the change.
Buddy bluntly reminded them that as boss, he wanted it that way, and 3,000 cupcakes were to be made for the event. So like the employees, we go along for the ride.
Now for the request for a cake: two guys with colorful mohawks show up, asking for a paintball cake in honor of their tournament.
Buddy couldn't imagine there was such thing as professional paintballers, as one said, "I shoot for a living."
Well, when put that way, I guess it's not so far-fetched.
Buddy's inner childhood was calling him as he expressed never having played. Yet he knew exactly how to shape the cake, making a 3-D warzone environment, with white "walls" covered in brightly-colored paint, and two identical, masked paintballers from opposite ends of the cake aiming at each other.
The two "pappagallos," or parrots in Italian, challenged Buddy to a game at All Star Paintball Arena in Spotswood.
Buddy thought they were all talk, but the two professional paintballers proved their expertise as they beat seven bakers in one round, with Buddy the last to get shot.
The adrenaline was still pumping as Buddy continued the game with Frankie, Anthony and Mauro out back of the bakery using food coloring cake batter as paint.
Back inside, white round and rectangular-shaped cakes were stacked to resemble walls, blocks, and oil drums—anything that's in an arena.
They were then camouflaged with brown and green paint.
A toy water gun was filled with the food coloring liquid and was literally sprayed all over the cakes to resemble splashed paint.
The paintballer models were detailed right down to the gun, thanks to Ralphie, who's still dressed in a suit with a white apron on top.
Finally, black shoe string liquorice was used as barb wire surrounded the edge of the cake.
Needless to say, the paintballers were pleased, but didn't hesitate to remind Buddy that they were still champions in the game.
Buddy was still in the mood for a challenge, and bet Frankie that he could decorate 10 cupcakes in a minute. Sure enough, he won, by spinning the plates while piping. Frankie blurted that these we probably not good enough to serve to the public, but as the camera panned through a couple of the cakes, you could see they were nicely done.
The reality part of a TV show kicks in, as there are times when the process of building such perfect products isn't perfect itself, causing the gang to improvise for the sake of time. From the St. Louis Arch, to the burnt zeppoles, to this case of the rectangle cake "wall" cracking as two sticks were shoved through to support the structure.
Buddy's eyes widened, but then he just used butter cream and filled and smoothed out the crack.
Another example of realism was when Buddy made a final giant cupcake, with a large pink rose on top. He wasn't satisfied with the way the petals came out, so he simply scraped off the pink cream and started all over again. The end result was a tightly wound rose, showing off Buddy's skills and humility.

Last tango in Argentina
The tantalising dance of the tango originated in Argentina and today is synonymous with the country's sultry culture and passionate traditions. Summer Davis ditched the hiking boots for a day and stepped up for the tango a la porteno challenge…
"I was booked for a tango lesson in Buenos Aires and wanted to learn the dance properly. Thanks to local advice, I made my way into one of the city's famous shoe stores to shop like a dancing queen – slipping into, twirling around and posing in pair after pair of gorgeous leather dance shoes. Which ones would be appropriate for my neophyte shimmying?
Blinded by beauty and vanity, I dealt out the 150 pesos (about forty-five dollars) for a set of shiny, strappy black four-inch heels. Perfect, I simmered in satisfaction, unconcerned with the breaking of my backpacker budget and consoled by the elegantly embossed felt bag into which my shoes were placed. These heels would make major improvements in my moves.
Ready to impress, my friend and I taxied to the address we'd been given – a nondescript door off a cobblestone side street. Inside, tango wafted through the high-ceilinged hall, hung around the enormous gilded mirrors and seeped into the scuffed hardwood floors. We were inaugurated into true Buenos Aires porteno culture.
Unbalanced and suffering in my arched stilettos, I slid around the room to the instructor's commands, nearly toppling over twice. How was anyone ever to tango properly in such treacherous and ungraceful shoes? My thighs and feet screamed from soreness, sighing relief only upon my turn with the instructor.
Aha! You must lean on your partner to stabilize yourself! The high heels allow him to turn and slide you around effortlessly while relying on his sturdy frame (and flat shoes) to prevent you from falling. Relieved to have made this discovery, I blamed my dancing discomfort on my not having a partner.
After the class, I noticed the permanently arched Barbie-doll feet and thick veined calves of our young female instructor, who'd been tangoing since she was six. I unstrapped their shackles and my feet cried. Hobbling away, I regretted purchasing such professional heels for my novice attempts at sexy, slithery tango and promised myself I'd shop smarter on my next visit to that elegant, romantic shoe shop downtown. But I still smile each time I spy these shoes in my wardrobe and am whirled back to my wonderful memories of tango a la porteno!"

Barnsley 0 Huddersfield 1
Report of match 22nd February 2003
Reporter Footymad Previewer
Post match analysis of the match against Huddersfield
Huddersfield's B team led the way to success in a drab Yorkshire derby.
Striker Andy Booth and young defender Nat Brown were both outstanding as struggling Town grabbed a priceless victory in their battle to beat the drop to Division Three.
Huddersfield's under fire boss Mick Wadsworth said: "This was an excellent result - in my second spell as manager! "The players performed really well and we created chances that had to rely on just the one taken.
"Our back three players were outstanding. Young Brown has a fantastic chance of being a fantastic player. And Andy Booth led the line superbly up front and got a deserved goal and could have had a hat trick.â Huddersfield began brightly and should have scored after just three minutes when poor defending let Martin Smith through on goal but his shot was blocked by advancing keeper Andy Marriott.
Booth opened the scoring in the 25th minute when he connected with a right wing cross and sent a header soaring over Marriott who was caught a yard too far off his line.
The nearest Barnsley came in the first half was a 12-yard header from midfielder Alex Neil which Town keeper Phil Senior pushed onto the post and Bruce Dyer failed to connect with the follow-up.
Barnsley were the better side in the early stages of the second period but it was Huddersfield who had a golden chance to make it 2-0 on 58 minutes, Brown swivelling six yards from goal but sending a shot straight at Marriott.
The home keeper then made a good save from Simon Baldry, before Booth headed inches wide of the far post.
Barnsley almost snatched an equaliser in the second minute of stoppage time.
Former Terriers midfielder Dean Gorre saw his 20-yard half volley take a deflection, but keeper Senior pulled off a remarkable save and Dyer's follow-up header crashed against the post, rolled across the six yard box and was cleared by the covering Kevin Sharp.

K1VR: The ColAtchCo system (by W1CF and W1FC) solved the tuning problem by making a swivel at the bottom of the vertical so that it could be lowered and raised easily. Frequency was then adjusted by the use of a small "top hat" of three wires near the top which go out to insulators and continue as guy wires (using dacron rope). Just trim the top hat and don't screw around with a system of metal taper which works mechanically. This is the system in use at W1FC, W1FV, K1VR, K1MEM and others. -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/towertalkfaq.html Submissions: firstname.lastname@example.com Administrative requests: email@example.com Problems: firstname.lastname@example.com Sponsored by Akorn Access, Inc & KM9P
