First came the snow, now comes the cold.
As a quick-hitting but intense snowstorm exits New Jersey today, record-breaking cold will settle into the state in its wake, according to forecasters. Temperatures will struggle to get out of the teens today as a deep polar vortex moves into the region, and a stiff wind could make it feel 20 degrees below zero.
Tonight, much of the northern half of the state could experience sub-zero temperatures, and daily record low temperatures will almost assuredly be set across the state.
The extreme will follow a quick-hitting but intense snowstorm that could drop up to 14 inches of snow before it moves out this morning. The storm already caused the cancellation of hundreds of flights, brought traffic to a near-standstill and prompted Gov. Chris Christie to declare a state of emergency, closing state offices today.
"The impending weather conditions over the next several days will produce a variety of dangerous travel conditions throughout the state," Christie said in a statement last night. "I encourage all New Jerseyans to stay off the roads if possible so that our first responders and public safety officials can safely respond to any emergency situations."
The New Jersey Department of Transportation unleashed its full arsenal of about 2,500 salt spreaders and plows to combat the storm, but the National Weather Service warns that blowing and drifting snow could still present travel problems throughout the day as strong winds persist.
The fresh snowpack will only enhance the cold. Snow tends to lock cold air in place, and the arrival of Arctic air will create a classic setup for a brutally cold night.
"It's not an annual event," said David Robinson, the state climatologist at Rutgers University. "But to have a widespread sub-zero morning though, it's generally something that would follow a fresh snow like this."
The cold will be short-lived however. New Jersey has been in an volatile weather pattern for the last six weeks, and the roller coaster of changes is likely to continue into next week.
By Sunday, as another storm approaches, temperatures could rise into the mid-to-upper 40s across the state. But as it moves through, another reinforcement of Arctic air will move into the Northeast.
High temperatures on Tuesday may not reach 10 degrees in parts of the state.
"That's pretty serious cold," said Gary Szatkowski, meteorologist in charge at the National Weather Service's Mount Holly office. "I think people who are out and about … are going to want to get back inside as quickly as possible."
There doesn't appear to be any end in sight to fickle pattern either. The National Weather Service is predicting colder than average temperatures over the next six to 10 days, but warmer than average temperatures over the next eight to 14.
"The question is, when does this end?" Robinson said. "An active pattern tends to only last so long before it slows down and has to catch its breath, but this has been pretty persistent."

Friday, 15 January, 4pm, Erwin Mill, 2024 W. Main St., room A103. Free Parking
Adriane Lentz-Smith, assistant professor, Department of History, will discuss her book, Freedom Struggles: African Americans and World War I.
For many of the 200,000 black soldiers sent to Europe with the American Expeditionary Forces in World War I, encounters with French civilians and colonial African troops led them to imagine a world beyond Jim Crow. They returned home to join activists working to make that world real. In narrating the efforts of African American soldiers and activitists to gain full citizenship rights as recompense for military service, Adriane Lentz-Smith illuminates how World War I mobilized a generation. Sponsored by the Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity and Gender in the Social Sciences at Duke University.

For baby girl starting with letter 'K',
Kannagi,Kayal, kayal vizhi, Kaaviri,Kothai,Kannammal,Kanni Thamilzh,Kotravai.
Most of the sites listed above have either 'Sanskrit' or 'Sanskrit derived' names like, Kavya,Kavitha,Komala,Roshini,Subhashini,Vijay,Anand,etc.
Due to these sites, many people think even some Sanskrit names as Thamilzh names. Because of this illiteracy, you see lot of people in this thread
posted/suggested Sanskrit names as responses.
Its pathetic that many people(though born as Thamilzhar) didn't even learn Thamilzh and blindly follow the Sanskrit names. I also want to point that (Thamilzh)Christians,Muslims also follow this illiteracy to name their kids in European and Arabic names.

There is no question that the Tamil community is the target of a misinformation campaign. But, you cannot generalize this and say all Tamils are fools. I visited the above sites after your negative comments. A great majority of the names in the above sites are nice Tamil names. Instead of belittling these sites for including a few sanskrit names, you can let the operators of these sites know of the non-Tamil names and give them a chance to correct their entries. I have contacted, in the past, www.dinamdinam.com and www.anbuthamil.com and they made my changes willingly. Please don't be offended by my little bit of preaching!
Take care!

>>But, you cannot generalize this and say all Tamils are fools<<
No where I mentioned that all Tamils are fools. I will never do that Sin. I just explained my frustration that there are many Tamils who didn't even study Thamilzh(though lived and studied in Thamilz Nadu) and hence failed to differentiate between Thamilzh and Sanskrit.
Thanks for your advice to contact the concerned sites. Peace :-)

You didn't say that all Tamils were fools. I just thought you meant it implicitly. Apologies my misunderstanding :-)
The site you have given sysindia.com has more vadamoli names than Tamil names. I wrote to those folks once, but nothing happened. I strongly recommend that you write to the other sites I mentioned because they took corrective action.

The yoga room is silent before, during and after class. During the class, the instructor is the only one speaking. This is for a number of reasons:
- The instruction is verbal and very technical with no demonstrations. It is very important that you are actively listening to the instructor throughout class and allow others the same courtesy.
- Eventually you will find the practice meditative, and you will be able to give your mind a break and allow for the instructors words to guide your body through the class. Be mindful of your journey to this experience and allow others to focus on letting the instruction guide their practice.
- You are breathing through your nose in the 26 postures so your mouth should be closed anyways!
Mutual respect
We know there are many wonderful yoga practices out there, and you may have been to a number of different classes. Each yoga practice offers you something different, which is the great thing about yoga. Two Sisters Yoga offers respect to all practices, and we ask that you offer us the same in return.
Please follow the instruction in the room—although you may have practiced other hot yoga, other yoga or other postures/asanas with the same name, things might be different in the Bikram Yoga room. Remember, different is good.
Trust us
Come to our class with an open mind and an open heart, follow the instruction as it is provided in this room and please refrain from modifications unless you are instructed to do so. Be sure to advise your instructor before class if you have any injuries or chronic conditions you are working through.
Your instructor will guide you in how to set up for the posture, how to move in the posture, what you will feel and how and when to come out. If you try your best and practice the right way, you will experience 100% benefit.
Footwear, lotions and cellphones
Please avoid wearing strongly scented lotions, perfumes, colognes and oils. These smells are amplified in the heat. If needed, take a quick rinse before class.
There are no shoes in the studio. Please be aware that you'll be barefoot in the yoga room—any contagious foot conditions should be treated as soon as possible or covered/dressed while walking through the studio.
Please bring only your mat, towel and water into the room. Do not bring purses, wallets, phones or other distractions. Due to the heat and humidity in the room, these types of items could be damaged and may pose as a distraction.

The Steelers are one high draft pick away from rounding out their offensive line—if they're not yet willing to give Kelvin Beachum a shot at left guard. Personally, I feel that the kid has earned a shot, but the team may not agree. They've spent a lot of time rebuilding this unit, and it's about time that it started paying dividends.
Let's take a look at some of the prospects the Steelers may target throughout the draft.

Each guide rail of this metal cutting machine is fitted with a stainless-steel measurement tape marked with grooves on a millimeter pitch. A reading head on the slide excites the primary of an inductive measurement sensor. The steel tape modifies and reflects the induced magnetic field back to the secondary side of the reading head sensor.
Output is an analog sine wave and cosine wave whose signal amplitudes vary with slide movement. The signal wavelength of 1,000 microns corresponds to the millimeter pitch on the steel tape. An interpolation unit in the electronics divides up the measured millimeter, producing a resolution down to 0.25 microns.

One to three identical columns, positioned around a central spindle, define this turning machine's unorthodox configuration. System layout, however, permits simultaneous production operationsonly possible until now on multiple-spindle lathes. In addition, maintenance is easy since the open structure is accessible from all angles.
Hydrostatic bearing blocks support both Z and X axes for excellent damping, rigidity, and accuracy. A permanent magnet synchronous motor from Parvex SA (see Global Design News, September 1998) forms the electric spindle. No currents in the rotor and no iron losses in the rotor laminations ensure low spindle temperatures.
Highly rigid, the design can be used for machining parts after heat treatment. Other system benefits include few components, standardized modules, and interchangeable elements.

Jim Turner teaching workshop in Illinois
Preservation of Steel Windows WorkshopJune 10 - 15, 2012
Since 2002, Pine Mountain Settlement School has offered hands-on field schools that emphasize practical preservation techniques that anyone should be able to master. The Pine Mountain School for Practical Historic Preservation has brought some of the country's most skilled traditional building instructors to southeast Kentucky. From these workshops, participants have gone on to conduct repairs on their homes, to work on important civic structures, and to help promote the idea that in most cases, repair rather than replacement is often the most desirable and cost-effective way to address common maintenance issues. All workshops are geared toward people of all skills levels and would be beneficial for homeowners, contractors, and managers of historic properties.
Preservationof Steel Windows Workshop
Instructor: Jim Turner
June 10 through 15
Jim Turner is a Preservation Trades Network, Inc. member and demonstrator and owns Turner Restoration based in Detroit, Michigan. During this workshop, participants will learn how to remove the steel window units from openings in brick, tile, stone and wood buildings to facilitate restoration of all components. Jim will show how to repair rusted and bent sections of windows; replace missing components, adjust frames, remove and reapply glazing, remove and reapply paint, how to repair window hardware and all other aspects of steel window restoration. Workshop demonstrations include how to build a spray paint booth and how to weld new sections for windows. Included in the workshop will be sessions on work safety practices.
Jim started his restoration business in 2004, not long after he attended two weeklong window repair workshops in 2002 at Pine Mountain. Ten years later, Jim returns to Pine Mountain Settlement School as one of the leading tradesmen in the country in steel window restoration. "I cannot express the impact those weeks have made on my work in preservation and the practical application of traditional trade methods," he says. Jim had been working to support historic preservation in Detroit, where he lived, for several years, and in other parts of Michigan. With the hands-on training he received at Pine Mountain, he was able to teach others in his neighborhood some basic skills. He has helped to develop a High School Preservation Overlay Program for vocational students. He has also conducted several window repair workshops throughout the United States.
Cost for the workshop is $950, which includes tuition, meals, lodging, student materials, and safety glasses.
Students will stay in dormitory-style accommodations, with shared bath. Bed linens and towels are furnished. All Pine Mountain Settlement School buildings are smoke-free. No pets or firearms are allowed on campus.
The workshop will begin with a 6 p.m. dinner on Sunday, June 10 and end after lunch on Friday, June 15. Meals are served in the Laurel House dining hall. Vegetarian meals are available upon request.
Advance Deposit
A non-refundable advance deposit of $100.00 is required at the time of registration and will apply to the total cost of your reservations. Lodging is not guaranteed without deposit.

Well that depends on your installer. IN my case that is exactly what I did. I use the same poll and just popped the Dish 1000 on it.

Band Spotlight: Stacy Clark
From upstate New York all the way out to Southern California, singer/songwriter Stacy Clark turned small-town coffee shop gigs into touring with bands like Jack's Mannequin and hearing her songs featured on hit shows like One Tree Hill and Make It or Break It.
After learning from peta2 about how elephants are beaten and abused in order to perform in the circus, Stacy used that same determination to turn her love for the majestic animals into direct action to help them. By protesting, spreading the word to friends and local community members, and voicing her opinion to the City Council, Stacy helped win a major victory and put a stop to elephant rides at the Santa Ana Zoo. And her love for animals doesn't stop there! From animal adoption to cruelty-free shopping, Stacy is armed (with knowledge) and ready to raise her voice.
If you're ready to get active for animals, check out the peta2 Street Team for all the tools you'll need to get started and follow Stacy on Facebook and Twitter to stay up to date on her latest music news.

"Born This Way: Real Stories of Growing Up Gay"
By Paul Vitagliano
(Quirk Books, 128 pages, $14.95)
Thank you Lady Gaga and thank you Paul Vitagliano.
This delightful little book offers heartfelt accounts of men and women reflecting on knowing they were gay as children, and photos that all but shout: "I am fabulous!
And they are.
The brief essays come from Mexico City and London, all over the country and a few from New Jersey.
In fact, the funniest came from New Jersey, from Frank, of Little Falls, who shows a photo of him eating pizza in 1969.
"As a kid I dressed like Charles Nelson Reilly. I had posters of David Cassidy on my bedroom wall, and I owned my own food processor by the time I was fifteen! My father, God love him, tried his best to interest me in pursuits more traditionally masculine than shopping and reading Redbook."
As funny as that is, he goes on, as so many in this book do, to tell of being bullied in school.
Vitagliano, a DJ, writes about finally sitting down with his mother, ready to make his "I'm gay speech." Of course she knew. Mothers always do.
The boy wearing the plaid jumpsuit on the cover is Dennis. He was 3 when he struck that pose, and he writes: "It's still amazing to me that my pose here was not a clear sign to my parents."
Heather, of Guam, writes about being a lipstick lesbian and how her parents disowned her.
"I have missed out on a lot of my life but I wouldn't go back into the closet for anything. After all, how would all my shoes and purses fit in there with me?"
The book, a sweet and fun reminder to accept all of our children takes maybe an hour to read, but that includes lingering over the photos, which truly deserve to be lingered over.

Thai airline recruits transgender staff

This is good that they are hiring trans staff, but why can't they just treat them like ordinary men/women.
Making trans people use their own toilets and pinning badges on them is defiantly out of line.
Would they do this to their other staff?
I agree, but it is a step in the right direction..
Oh I would love to see the day when such a story is not even news-worthy… When it is commonplace…
I think it's interesting that you thought this photo of someone dressed in a carnival-type outfit was an appropriate image to accompany an article about trans women getting mainstream employment. Nice way to trivialize the article. And yes, I agree with Megan that labeling trans people as though customers have a right to know their trans status is no step forward… it's exploitation.
The article really isn't clear on the bathrooms as to whether it was the trans people who wanted the bathrooms or the other students it could be a bad thing as you suggest or in fact a positive thing which is showing support and adaption.
As for the badges I am not sure what the purpose is but from speaking to some people who have lived in Thailand, Trans people are not generally picked on so I think it is more of a positive thing again. ie you can tell the gender of the other staff by their clothes and as they regard trans as a 3rd sex they are simply distinguishing it too.
The reasons why trans people become transgender in Thialand is not always the same reasons as here, many do see themselves as a sex apart from male/female and Thai's historically believe the 3rd sex has existed from creation. At 200,000 Thailand has the largest 3rd sex population in South East Asia.
They may well just be culturaly different from our trans population so the same rules and needs may not apply.
A quick trawl through other reports throws up that badges are as much to do with identifying their sex for immigration.
Steve, I agree that it's a positive step for 3rd sex people to getting jobs outside the entertainment and sex industries where most of them work.
Dave… in reality other than being in beauty pageants, shop girls and in nightclubs, trans women in Thailand are NOT treated well. They are completely unable to change their national ID, birth certificates, cannot marry a man (if they so choose), and are locked out of most educational and job opportunities. Some trans women in Thailand consider themselves 3rd gender (as do some in the west) but many don't. They often identify themselves as women (while some ID as Sao Prophet Song… 'women of the second type'). Yes, there are cultural differences, but just because a given culture (with its own unique oppression different from our forms of oppression) states that trans women aren't women doesn't mean that's automatically okay. How about allowing individual trans people to ID themselves as third gender (or not), or don't you think they should have that right?
@Gina I totally agree with you on both of those points, to be honest I'm offended that PN would bow down to the typical Thai/Oriental trans women picture.
I can remember when I first told my company that I'm transitioning and the only images some of the men could come up with as those type of images.
Such an improvement to the chavvy, orange slappers on ryanair and the miserable hags on BA.
I agree with Gina on the image, scrap it! Find a picture of an air hostess.
Let's hope they'll be appreciated for their service and that they won't be bothered by boozed-up homophobes. I used to have a couple of katoeys – is the therm pejorative or not – as neighbours. I'm sure they were working girls, but they could be very sweet. People like that deserve a life, just like the rest of us.
Wow, this is great. I hope other airlines follow.
BA has a few transgendered people.
In one sense this sounds wonderful, opening doors for employment, making sure people who find it hard to find a variety of non-entertainment, non-sex-work jobs can do so.
But why the specialised name tags? That gives me pause and it flags, as others above have noted, an air of exploitation. Does the airline really care to enact a form of affirmative action in the workplace? Or are they trying to get publicity and capitalise on the sensationalism?
Clearly this article has used the wrong image to portrait the whole idea. In fact, I am Thai and I have read this news on the local website and here you should see the right image to go with
It's all very well jumping up and down and causing an outcry over these women wearing badges…but has anyone asked them what they think?
Transsexuality is living a lie, a foolish fantasy
Sexual impurity is a given in our culture. In the Levitical law, God prohibits homosexuality and bestiality.In many sexual perversions, such as pornography, bisexuality, homosexuality, bestiality, and even more depraved things of which it is disgraceful even to speak
However, it is also clear that the body is cursed, Gen. 3:16-19. Man's rebellion brings down God's wrath, Rom. 1:18-19. Work, childbirth, and other activities are made painfully difficult due to His curse. Bodies do experience degenerative processes. Ultimately, they die. Genetically, we suffer the effects of the fall. Diabetes and other diseases are the result of our rebellion. Genetic failures result in bodily problems that influence sexuality. For example, the morphological differentiation of the genitalia, due to X-Y chromosomal defects, does not always progress according to the normal ordained pattern.
Destruction of sexual gender is serious.

Which Voice Will Be Heard?
As I reviewed over the weekend the latest presidential campaign news and commentary, I noticed the distinctive themes different players were advancing. Those themes seemed to find a voice, and I was struck by the way each voice calls to us as voters.
Mitt Romney's Voice
Kathryn Jean Lopez, always insightful, may be on to something once again. In Mitt Romney and the Tower of Babel, she talks about Romney's emerging role as a spokesman for the hopes and values of Americans who are conservative and religious. "Our politics," she says, "has become a bit terrifyingly like the biblical story of the tower of Babel. All too often, political communicators are speaking — or texting — to someone, but very rarely outside our comfort zone. Very rarely advancing conversations. Very rarely doing much more than talking in circles with one another…."
Ms. Lopez lists as an example of the problem the controversy over the contraception issue and the Obama administration's attempt to force Catholic institutions to provide insurance benefits that violate their religious beliefs. She goes to Romney's comments on the subject:
"I feel we're all Catholic today," he said at a community center in Bowling Green, Ohio. "The president and his administration," he continued, "said they are going to usurp your religious freedom by demanding that you provide products to your employees, if you're the Catholic Church, that violates your own conscience."
"Whether it's a Catholic businessperson or the Catholic Church itself they're being told what they have to do that violates their religious conscience," he said, clarifying the fullness of the impact of the Department of Health and Human Services contraception, sterilization, and abortion-inducing-drug mandate. "That attack on religious freedom, I think, is a dangerous and unfortunate precedent… In our battle to preserve religious freedom and tolerance . . . in this country, it is essential for us to push back against that."
To us that sounds like a candidate speaking from the standpoint of "civil religion," a notion that Lincoln advanced and which we've written about before.
K-Lo thinks Romney's voice is important:
Mitt Romney may not have the office of the president and the communications advantage that comes with it, but he has increasingly been using the megaphone that comes with being the alternative to the president in a presidential election. He has a compelling counter-narrative to advance. He can educate like no one other than the sitting president, as everything he says now has the potential to make headlines. And he's been doing that lately. It may not all get covered on the top of the news like his tax returns are, but in our current social-media age, the old media don't have the monopolistic stranglehold on information dissemination they used to. You read this and you pass it on on e-mail, on Facebook, Tweet a little, have a Pinterest — and there is still the old-school getting-it-in-print and passing it on at the diner or kitchen table.
K-Lo's entire post is a must-read.
The Evangelical Voice
We can offer two contrasting voices in this category. First, Richard Mouw thinks it's more important than ever for Evangelicals to listen to Mormons. Mr. Mouw, long a voice for Evangelical-Mormon dialogue, doesn't have much to say about the presidential race, but does have a vision for how the two faith communities should interact:
I have two rules for interfaith dialogue: First, don't tell people what they believe; ask them and listen carefully to what they say. Second, don't pit the best things in your perspective against the worst things in their perspective. For me, that has meant acknowledging to Mormons some of our evangelical defects, as well as admitting to some good things in Mormonism. We need to account for the many wonderful people in other religious traditions. Instead of just criticizing religious movements and their founders, we need to understand their teachings and the communities built around them.
David Brody offers a different voice, and wants to talk about "trust and authenticity," which he thinks is "the real issue" with Romney:
Romney has always had these problems with the base to begin with. If the Obama campaign can convince Independent voters that the guy is a liar and untrustworthy, then it works to their advantage….
As for releasing his tax returns, it goes to the same issue of trust. Every day that goes by where Romney doesn't release these years of his tax returns will simply be another day where some voters wonder whether he is hiding something. That's not a good place for Romney of all people to be. The last thing he needs is a voter to suspect that he's a rich guy who has something to hide.
Look, here's the deal: maybe there's something in those tax returns that makes Romney unflattering to some in the middle class but maybe he just needs to take the hit and suffer the short-term consequences.
(Emphasis added.) When the chief political correspondent for the Christian Broadcasting Network refers to the "base," is there any doubt what he means? Brody's comments are perilously close to a dog whistle message to some of his readers: When one of those slippery Mormons runs for president, he needs to do all he can to avoid looking slippery.
I don't think Romney needs any more allies like Brody or any CBN readers who share his bias. This is a voice of doubt and suspicion based on a candidate's faith, and the country needs no more such voices.
The Obama Campaign's Voice
Meanwhile, the Obama campaign team cheerfully admits that they intend to "define and destroy Mitt Romney."
[T]his kind of thing is nothing new for campaign honcho [David] Axelrod. "Axelrod's strategy is always to run unopposed, literally if possible," says a Democratic insider in Chicago. "He wants to take the opponent out—there's a long tradition in Illinois of trying to force your opponent off the ballot—and if that doesn't work, literally, then do whatever needs to be done to destroy him figuratively."
So here we have the amoral voice of "just win, baby." If that means knocking your candidate off the ballot so the voters have no choice but your candidate, then so be it. If it means digging up sealed divorce records to destroy your opponent, then do it. And if it means planting in the minds of the electorate that your squeaky-clean opponent is a felon, then you'd better do that too.
(UPDATE: I just noticed, thanks to Guy Benson's tweet, that the Democratic National Committee is still running their ad ridiculing Ann Romney's ownership of a dressage horse that is competing in the Olympics. Guy wonders if the Democrat "really believe wives are 'off limits,'" as President Obama said they are.)
Which voice will prevail? The Romney voice of mainstream civil religion, appealing to the "better angels of our nature" — another Lincolnism? Brody's voice of sectarian suspicion? Or the Obama campaign's voice — the voice of those seeking to gain and hold power by any means necessary, however dishonest and cynical?
When people say "this is the most important election of our lifetimes," my initial reaction is always to think, "Oh, come on. People say that every election."
Then again, when I think about the voices we are hearing and the choice we will eventually make, one way or another, I think those people may well be right.

Two of the Vermont's hottest high school boys hockey teams collide Wednesday night at Riley Rink when Burr and Burton Academy (11-3) hosts U-32 (13-1) in a Lake Division showdown at 5:45 p.m.
The Bulldogs, ranked fourth in the division through Tuesday, have won 10 straight games since an early-season skid.
The defending state champion Raiders, currently sitting atop the VPA standings, have won every game they've played since suffering a seesaw, 6-4 defeat to BBA in the season-opener.
"They're the real deal," BBA coach Cory Herrington said of U-32. "They've got a lot of depth and a lot of speed."
Only 2012 state runner-up Northfield (11-2-1), which has won its last 11 games, can match their momentum at this point in the season. And Northfield could be right there at the end of the season, too. The Marauders, No. 2 in the league table, travel to Burr and Burton on Feb. 20 and head to U-32 three days later.
U-32, breaking in a pair of new goaltenders, appears to have hit its stride since giving up a season-high six goals to BBA on home ice back on Dec. 8.
The Raiders, with three 10-goal games to their credit, are scoring at a clip of 6.2 goals per game against a 1.8 goals against average. Senior forward Jordan Jones leads the attack with 18 goals and 12 assists on the season. Defenseman Shane O'Neill has 14 goals and 11 assists in his account, while Cole Mugford has notched nine goals and 23 assists.
Herrington said the Raiders, who knocked out the Bulldogs in the state semifinals last spring, are solid all-around, with effective special teams play and a demanding forecheck.
"We've got to get to the net, get pucks on the net and play a complete game," Herrington said. "We can't afford any turnovers on the blue line."
Like the Raiders, Burr and Burton has also rallied since its last loss, a 5-4 setback against Hartford on Dec. 28.
Behind a trio of game-breaking senior forwards, the Bulldogs' offense has averaged 3.9 goals per game. Brock Pollard and Sean Paradis each have 14 goals, with Pollard's eight assists edging Paradis by one. Henry Buckley has eight goals to go along with four assists.
Senior goaltender Zack Stewart (2.2 GAA) has allowed just three goals in the past six games, which include a 4-1 win against third-ranked Brattleboro (11-3).

He'll trade baseball cleats for track spikes at this weekend's state track and field meet in Gulf Shores, where he'll compete in the 100 and 200 meters and the long jump, as well as anchoring the Saints' 4x100-meter relay team.
Football takes center stage next week when spring practice starts and college coaches arrive to evaluate the speedy senior-to-be.
"It keeps me pretty occupied," Towner said of his busy spring, "and it keeps me in shape."
Towner burst onto the state track scene in February when he won the Class 5A 60-meter championship in 7.0 seconds despite abandoning track for his sophomore year.
Towner excelled as a cornerback, receiver and kick returner last fall, recording 39 tackles and scoring 10 touchdowns. He even played tailback after starter Jordan Huff suffered a season-ending knee injury.
Despite his football success, Towner currently holds no football offers, although Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Florida State, Louisiana Tech and South Alabama have shown interest.
"What I tell everybody is that he's a game-changer," said St. Paul's football coach Steve Mask, who compares Towner to former Ole Miss star Dexter McCluster. "He just makes things happen. I don't see why people aren't breaking down the door to get him."
The biggest -- or perhaps only -- knock on Towner is his size. At 5-foot-8 and 165 pounds, many football coaches wonder if he can withstand the punishment of the college game.
What he lacks in size he makes up for with speed, and that's why he views this weekend's track meet as a prime opportunity to enhance his football stock.
"It's very important," Towner said. "Hopefully, I can run a fast 100 and show coaches that I'm not just field speed."
Count veteran St. Paul's track coach Jim Tate as a believer in Towner's speed.
"I've never had a young man who has his speed and explosiveness," said Tate, a 40-year coaching veteran. "That's saying a lot because we've had good athletes come through here. He puts himself in a class by himself in just pure speed."
Towner said he's been clocked as fast at 4.32 seconds in the 40-yard dash, a key evaluation tool for football scouts, and he ran a 10.86 100-meter dash this spring. He hopes to lower his 100-meter time to the 10.7 range this weekend.
That's impressive for any sprinter, but Towner spent nearly all spring practicing baseball and trained sporadically for track. He'll compete this weekend against sprinters who have spent the last few months focused solely on track.
"One of the coaches here asked, 'How fast is Kylen?'" Tate said. "The answer was that he's as fast as he needs to be. That's a pretty good description."
After competing in four events this weekend, he'll take a day to rest and then hit the football field Monday. College coaches will be watching, with NCAA rules allowing them to evaluate players through May 31.
"It will be more pressure next week," Towner said. "Just stay calm and do what I normally do and not try to impress the coaches. Just act like they're not out there."

|[TowerTalk] C3/7-3 Vs Tennadyne T10

'ello, We are in the process of upgrading our rado club. We have a 4el 10m monoband Yagi at the moment but want to put up a multibander. It would be up around 130ft(40M) and would be our only perminant HF antenna. We are looling at either the C3 / 7-3optibeam or the Tennadye T10. Boom length is not reallly an issue for us how ever weight is, both these antennas weight in around the 40lbs mark (20KG). We are maily interested in 10-15-20 QRO but 12 and 17 would be nice (100w?). I understand that the C3 and 7-3 can both be matched remotly to the 'new' bands. Is 6db gain a realistic figure for the T10 ? Is there a simple way to calculate gain for a LogP ? What about the F/B ratios of the antennas. Which did/would you chooose and why ? We have the offer of a second-hand T10, so cost of the antennas is about the same.

The U.S. economy depends on the dutiful labor and efficiency of trucking and warehouse employees. An extensive supply chain network coordinates the movement of goods from producer to consumer. The warehouse sector is considered a part of this complex system and employs more than three million Americans. Positions in this field mostly require a high school diploma, strong communication skills and manual dexterity.
The warehouse industry presents a range of entry-level and management opportunities for people who are good with their hands and don't mind doing the heavy lifting. If you're up for the challenge, one of these five jobs might just be yours for the taking:
Warehouse Associate
Average Salary - $24,000
This position is responsible for a variety of shipping and receiving duties to include: loading and unloading freight or merchandise, moving products to designated areas, inspecting shipments for damages or defects and maintaining stock shelves in the warehouse. The role entails a great deal of physicality. Warehouse associates sort, stack, store, assemble and unpack freight. Some products must be housed at a specific temperature to prevent spoiling or other impairments. Warehouse associates monitor and prepare such merchandise for proper storage. They sometimes use equipment to move large orders, which requires certification, most commonly a commercial driver's license (CDL). Your pay scale may be determined by the skills you bring to the table. Previous experience along with a high school diploma and basic math skills can increase your earning potential.
Warehouse Manager
Average Salary – $48,000
For those who have solid leadership skills and understand the inner workings of the warehouse industry, a management position may be the next logical step in your career. The warehouse manager oversees, plans and directs every aspect of the warehouse. He or she makes sure all employees are practicing proper lifting and moving technique and adhering to warehouse procedures. The job is an ideal fit for someone with warehouse operations experience, strong interpersonal skills and knowledge of safety standards enforced by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Preventing on the job injuries is very important in this capacity. Random inspections designed to improve workplace safety can reveal violations and employers may be cited or fined as a result. Warehouse managers also supervise staff, administer overall inventory management and ensure customer requirements are met.
Warehouse Inventory Clerk or Shipping/Receiving Clerk
Average Salary – $24,100
Hands down, inventory workers are expected to be accurate in their stock counts and as such, you must possess strong organizational and math skills to successfully perform in this role. Warehouse inventory clerks track orders, prepare and maintain records and investigate discrepancies. Their efforts help ensure shipping and receiving activities run smoothly. The position typically consists of administrative tasks, but occasionally may pull orders as well as load and unload trucks. The job description varies from company to company. Employers who hire inventory clerks usually provide on-the-job training as long as candidates meet their basic requirements. More warehouses are incorporating technology, like tablets, to make these jobs more efficient.
Forklift Operator
Average Salary – $30,800
These workers are the prime movers of machinery. Your main duty in this capacity is to be a smooth operator by skillfully moving goods from one place to another. Forklift operators have to be certified or licensed. Additional training is sometimes necessary for license renewal. As with any warehouse job, safety is a top priority. Forklift operators use powerful equipment on a regular basis to transfer and stack merchandise. Handling packages and shipments with a high level of care is extremely important. Individuals who take on these responsibilities should be well-versed in warehouse safety. Material moving machine operators must be able to inspect and handle different types of equipment, such as the stand-up forklift and the sit-down forklift. They also assist with packing and unpacking trucks. Forklift operators traditionally work in warehouse settings.
Material Handler
Average Salary – $22,560
Literally the most hands-on of the group, material handlers move objects without machines. In this case, only the strong survive. Material handlers can expect to lift and load products onto pallets for most of their eight-hour day. They manually move, pack and haul materials in warehouses and storage facilities. While hand trucks provide an alternate method for transporting materials, handlers regularly use their bare hands to move loads. Employers in the warehouse industry usually let workers take frequent breaks to reduce the possibility of injury or fatigue. For an entry-level material handler position, most employers look for candidates with at least a high school education. Understanding weight and measurement is helpful in terms of checking accuracy and filling out paperwork for product shipments. The occupation is slated to grow 14 percent over the next seven years.

OL James Brewer suffered a head injury early on in practice, but it was too early to determine whether or not he had a concussion.
RB Ryan Torain was banged up after a collision with Jacquian Williams and Ryan Mundy in 11-on-11. That injury in particular underscored a portion of practice Coughlin wasn't happy about. He and defensive coordinator Perry Fewell re-emphasized players not going to the ground during tackling drills.
S Cooper Taylor tweaked his hamstring and TE Larry Donnell sustained an ankle injury as well.
On the bright side, Hakeem Nicks had a light day but was still in full pads and practicing with the team. He did some 1-on-1s with the defensive backs and played a handful of team snaps.
Corey Webster (groin) was basically a full go.

Mixed bacteria and biologicals
Inoculant companies are meeting the demand by expanding their research on bacterial strains. "New strains are being tested against the current standards, and that's good," Maloney says.
"I see great development in the area of mixed strains of rhizobia," he adds. "I'm seeing seed inoculants with two or more strains of bacteria, maybe a biological fungicide and other biologicals added to enhance the growth of root nodules and root hairs/root mass to improve nutrient uptake."
Soil environments change year to year and within a year. Some strains of bacteria survive in lower pH levels, whereas others prefer higher soil pH levels. Some strains can perform in soils with higher levels of residual nitrogen. "Soybean inoculants undergo extensive testing to measure their compatibility with seed-applied fungicides, insecticides, nematicides," Maloney says. "Current inoculants are bred to be aggressive, not lazy, nodulators."

Local officials welcomed Gov. John Kasich's announcement Monday that he will deliver his fourth State of the State address in Medina Feb. 24.
"The City of Medina is honored to host Gov. Kasich, the House of Representatives and the Ohio Senate at our Performing Arts Center," Mayor Dennis Hanwell said.
"This will be an excellent opportunity to showcase the Medina community and show elected officials from all over the State of Ohio what a great and dynamic community we have here. It is further a great opportunity to recognize House Speaker William G. Batchelder on his final year in office, due to term limits, having served Ohio faithfully with 46 years of public service."
Hanwell was unaware the arts center at Medina High School had been chosen until the announcement was made, he said. And Medina school officials weren't contacted by the governor's office until Friday, interim Superintendent Dave Knight said.
"We met Sunday to confirm the availability of the center and its capacity, which is 1,200," Knight said.
Medina County Commissioner Steve Hambley said, "I can think of no greater tribute to the distinguished record of public service of Speaker William Batchelder than to see him and Senate President Keith Faber convene a joint session of the Ohio General Assembly in Medina to hear Gov. Kasich deliver his State of the State address. It is a proud moment in Medina County history and one that the people of this county will be talking about for at least a generation. I look forward with great anticipation to hearing Gov. Kasich's plans for continued job growth and stronger communities in Ohio."
Bethany Dentler, director of the Medina County Economic Development Corporation, said, "It is particularly gratifying for Medina County to host Gov. Kasich for the 2014 State of the State address, given the governor's emphasis on job creation. Our county has recovered rapidly from the recession, and we have seen a significant amount of job growth over the past few years, which is reflected in one of the lowest unemployment rates in the state. Medina County is truly a showcase for successful economic development in Ohio, and serves as a model for the kind of public-private partnerships the governor has championed."
The director of the Greater Medina Chamber of Commerce, Debra Lynn-Schmitz, said, "Medina appreciates the governor's support of business and job creation in Ohio and we are extremely pleased that our community will be featured on this important occasion and recognized for our efforts in economic and business development."
Kasich's spokesman said in a news release, "Medina is one of Ohio's great communities and this is a great way to celebrate it. Medina is also the hometown of Speaker Batchelder, and as he starts the last year of his term this is a way to recognize his distinguished 46-year career in public service."
This will be the governor's third visit to the Medina area. He met in September 2011 with about 150 county residents and officials at the Foundation warehouse in Sharon Township and spoke in June with a small group of local Republican leaders at a luncheon at the Santosuosso's Italian restaurant on Ohio 18 in Medina Township.
Kasich gave his first State of the State Address in 2011 at the Statehouse, the traditional site, but broke from that practice "to take state government to Ohioans," the spokesman said.
The second address took place at Wells Academy, an elementary school in Steubenville, and the third at Veterans Memorial Civic and Convention Center in Lima.
State Senator Larry Obhof, of Medina, said he is proud that the governor plans to deliver his address in Medina.
"This is a great opportunity to showcase our community, and I look forward to hosting the governor and my legislative colleagues as they visit Northeast Ohio," Obhof said.
Kasich's address will be covered by the Greater Cleveland media market and heard by voters who will play a major role in deciding the gubernatorial election this year. Cuyahoga County -- governed by County Executive Ed FitzGerald, Kasich's likely Democratic challenger in November -- remains the state's most populous county and it, Medina County and the other surrounding counties, are a large segment of the electorate.
