Interest rates are on the move again. No, there's no change in the Bank of England's monetary policy and short-term rates seem likely to remain very low for some time to come. But the climb in longer-term rates seems to have begun and, depending on how far and how fast things move, this will have a profound effect on all of us.
Ten-year gilt yields are back above 2 per cent. By any historical standards, that is extremely low: far below current inflation and probably below most expectations for inflation for the next 10 years. But last summer the rate dipped below 1.5 per cent. That was the lowest since the Bank of England was founded in 1694. That already seems an aberration and it may well turn out that rates will never be as low again, certainly not in our lifetimes. So what does it mean?
There are two sets of forces at work. One is international, the other domestic. The rise in yields is part of a global trend, as last summer's very low levels are seen as an over-reaction to fears of renewed recession in the developed world and a break-up of the eurozone. Thus the equivalent US rates dipped to 1.4 per cent in the summer and are now 1.9 per cent. German rates went below 1.2 per cent and have risen to 1.5 per cent. So the extreme fears – the need for a "safe haven" for cash – have receded.
There has also been a reassessment of risk between bonds and equities, for any fixed-interest security would be vulnerable to a rise in inflation, whereas not only do the shares of large companies provide a better current yield than government bonds, but they also give some protection against inflation.
But domestic forces are also at work. The Coalition's progress in cutting the deficit looks worse now than last summer: notwithstanding the Chancellor's claims, the underlying deficit seems to be rising, not falling. That may lead to a loss of the UK's AAA credit rating, which might increase borrowing costs further. A more general concern is the UK's poor growth performance, even allowing for the official GDP figures understating what is actually happening. And there are lingering concerns about the possible over-valuation of sterling, associated with its "safe haven" status, noted by Mervyn King. Any fall in the pound would, of course, damage investors in sterling-denominated debt.
What will be the effects of this? We can see some already: the cost of fixed-interest mortgages has started to rise not just here but also in the States. Any rise will also undermine eurozone austerity programmes and if rates climb sharply here, then our own austerity programme becomes all the harder to sustain. The one big number coming the Coalition's way is the lower-than-expected cost of servicing the national debt.
On the other hand, a return to more normal levels of interest rates would have positive effects, too. Pensioners would benefit as annuity rates rose and pension funds themselves would benefit, too, partly for actuarial reasons, but particularly were the rise in bond yields associated with a rise in share prices. For most, the loss on holdings of gilts would be more than offset by a rise in equities.
More generally a return to more normal interest rates would signal a return to more normal market conditions: the world would be moving out of crisis and returning to some sort of normality. It is hard to know which way round the relationship works: are normal market conditions a response to normal economic growth or the other way round? Common sense suggests a bit of both.
Common sense also suggests that extreme monetary policies, carried on for years, start to become ineffective in their main aim, to boost demand. So a rise in long-term rates may not damage growth but actually be a signal that economies are on the move again.
No stopping the online revolution
Online shopping to the rescue – or not. It has been a mediocre Christmas for the High Street but a bumper one for online. As a result, overall sales seem to be up by about 1 per cent in real terms – not brilliant but not dreadful.
We seem to have become the most adept nation on earth at shopping online. Along with the Danes, it seems we make a higher proportion of our purchases online than anyone else. That has a number of direct consequences
High streets have to find a way of fighting back, which raises questions about business rates and parking restrictions. We have to recognise that this may be even bigger than the supermarket revolution: that in another 10 years, more than half of what we spend on goods will be done online.
If that is right, there will be huge consequences for land use, roads, international retail competition, advertising and so on. Shopping may go the way of other industries, with room at the top and at the bottom but not much in between. And slimming the distribution chain should bring benefits to all – unless you are a high-street bookstore, or are someone who likes to browse before you buy.Reuse content

VILLANOVA, Pa. - The Penn State men's lacrosse team fell to in-state foe Villanova, 11-7, on Saturday afternoon at Villanova Stadium.
A strong start from the Wildcats put Penn State on its heels early in the game, placing the Nittany Lions in a position to try and mount a comeback. Creating an additional challenge, the weather did not cooperate Saturday with the Penn State men's lacrosse team, as blizzard-like conditions created significant problems and added to the level of game difficulty.
"It certainly made for a sloppy game," said head coach Jeff Tambroni. "Both teams had difficulties; it wasn't like it was an advantage for Penn State or an advantage for Villanova. I thought they managed the game better than we did in the snow but clearly it was a different kind of game because of the weather."
Despite the weather in the eastern part of the Commonwealth, the Nittany Lions focused their attention on their performance, rather than field conditions.
The biggest concern for Penn State is their inability to start the game off strong. Two first quarter penalties resulted in two Villanova goals. Much like their matchup last weekend on the road at Loyola (Md.), the Nittany Lions defensive breakdowns resulted in early goals and the offense was unable to capitalize at the other end.
"For two weeks in a row we just didn't get off to a good start," said Tambroni. "Two weeks in a row we dug a pretty difficult hole to get ourselves out of."
Penn State trailed 6-3 at the end of the first half, after being outscored 5-1 in the first quarter.
A bright spot for the Nittany Lions was sophomore Nick Aponte, and his first multi-goal game of the season. Aponte was responsible for four of the Nittany Lions' seven goals, finding the back of the net on all four of his shots on goal. Another solid performance came from face off specialist Drake Kreinz, who went 14-of-21 from the dot, including his 7-of-8 performance in the fourth quarter.
During the second half, Penn State's defense focused more on double-teaming Villanova attack men in attempts to force turnovers.
"I think we just felt like we needed more possession time," said Tambroni. "We weren't doing a great job off the ground and felt like we needed to pick up the pace a little bit because it was a rather sluggish game."
Villanova's defense was successfully able to put the pressure on Penn State's offense when they came close to scoring range, holding the Nittany Lions to 10 shots in the first half. Penn State took 19 shots in the second half, but the Nittany Lions couldn't overcome the first half deficit.
"I think a lot of our woes came with our inability to pick the ball up off the ground," said Tambroni. "I didn't think we did a good job with some of the details and possessions were clearly one of them. Villanova took advantage of the overall possession time."
In addition to possession time, Coach Tambroni explained that the Nittany Lions need to improve their ability to play from behind, and be overcome the pressure.
"I don't think we did a good job at handling the pressure," said Tambroni. "We were down 5-1 and probably created a more urgent style of lacrosse and then didn't necessarily perform the way we were capable of under those circumstances."
Although the outcome wasn't what the Nittany Lions had hoped for, there is much to be learned from and improved on moving forward.
"The good and the bad is that it's still early in the season and there's a lot of lacrosse left to play," said Tambroni.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Former men's lacrosse player Kyle VanThof underwent a bone marrow donation on Feb. 9.
In November of 2012, the Penn State men's lacrosse team hosted a swab drive to attempt to find a bone marrow match for then-player Drew Roper's mother, Kim. Roper's mother had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and needed a bone marrow transplant to aid in her fight against the disease. As part of this swab event, many Penn State student-athletes participated and incredibly, one became a match.
In early 2014, as a result of his participation in the Match4Kim swab drive, men's hockey player David Glen found out he was a match for a woman needing a bone marrow transplant. Although he had to sit out a few games in the middle of the season, Glen knew the choice was clear and didn't hesitate to help.
More recently, VanThof found out he was a match for someone needing the life-saving transplant. VanThof had visited his former teammate Drew Roper, just three days prior to finding out he himself was a match. Roper's mother, who was the inspiration for the swab drive in 2012, unfortunately still has not found a match.
VanThof quickly participated in further testing before undergoing the operation just over a week ago. Finding out he was a match was both surprising and life changing for VanThof.
"I was extremely excited, it was an opportunity to give someone more time with their family, and their family more time with them," said VanThof. "It was a pretty long process, and I was hoping that everything would work out. I believe it has, and there is so much more left to finish the journey with her that I hope we get a chance to be a part of each others lives."
Playing midfield, VanThof spent his years with Penn State men's lacrosse making an impact both on and off the field. His redshirt junior season, VanThof started all 17 games and scored six goals with eight assists. VanThof described his time on the team.
"Unforgettable, I would never exchange my experience for the world," said VanThof. "I still keep in touch with so many of my teammates because we have built a family atmosphere. These were the only guys I spent time with for five years."
Head coach Jeff Tambroni remembers VanThof as a player who treated his teammates like family and thought of other people's needs before his own.
"It's one thing to be a match but it's another thing to actually go through with it," said Tambroni. "Kyle was not only a match but chose to go through with it. I think it speaks volumes about Kyle's selflessness and willingness to kind of look out away from just his own being or his own day-to-day tasks to help somebody else in need."
Due to privacy restrictions VanThof has not been in communication with the woman who would receive the life-saving transplant.
"There are rules with communicating with the person, so at this moment in time I have not heard from her," said VanThof. "I will get updates on how she is doing and so forth, but until the first year hits and we choose whether or not to disclose our personal information we can only communicate through letters that are read by Be The Match."
Despite the lack of direct communication, VanThof knows his contribution is being received with great appreciation. Also appreciative of his donation are his family, friends and former teammates who have supported him through the process.
"Everyone that I have spoken to has been extremely supportive," said VanThof. "It's actually an honor because not everyone gets a chance like this to do something for someone in need."
The whole process he has been through these past few weeks has encouraged VanThof and has inspired him to share his story. VanThof urges that becoming a donor and getting swabbed is very important because it not only can save someone's life, but also change your own.
"Everyone should join because it's such a great cause and awareness needs to be raised on the subject," said VanThof. "To be a match and give someone another year, let alone maybe even only a day with their loved ones, is a tremendous opportunity."

BALTIMORE, Md. - The Penn State men's lacrosse team scored four consecutive goals in the second half, but ultimately fell short at Loyola, 8-6, on Saturday.
The beginning of the contest was a defensive showcase, with both teams' defenses keeping the other teams' offenses at bay. Loyola ended the first quarter with three unanswered goals, but the Nittany Lions didn't give up the fight.
Despite being limited by Loyola's steadfast defense, the Nittany Lions' offense created decisive opportunities for scoring in the second half. Four goals in a row brought the Nittany Lions within one goal of tying the Greyhounds, 7-6. These goals gave the Nittany Lions confidence and hope, but ultimately Loyola scored one final goal that sealed the fate for Penn State.
"I think a lot of it was just us not opening things up or playing with more fluidity, more confidence," said head coach Jeff Tambroni. "We were struggling in the basics."
With more than 50 shots taken, the Greyhounds' relentless offense gave the Nittany Lions' defense fits, but goaltender Connor Darcey stood strong. Coach Tambroni, despite disappointment in the final score, was pleased with Darcey's performance overall.
"I credit Connor Darcey and our defense, they played very well today," said Tambroni. "[Loyola's] got some great shooters, especially around the first midfield, they can really bring the heat. But conversely I thought we needed to be a little bit more urgent."
Darcey, in his second game starting in Penn State's net, commanded the defense from the starting faceoff. As goalie, Darcey's position is one of leadership on the field and is extremely important in getting the defense to work together. Darcey, as well as the rest of the defense, felt the pressure during the game to keep Loyola's scoring chances low.
"I thought we played pretty well defensively," said Darcey. "We had a ton of pressure on us which was expected, we knew that going in, but I think we handled it pretty well. As we went on throughout the game we got more comfortable and we sort of felt them [Loyola] out."
Penn State had limited scoring opportunities, which made every shot on net that much more important. Despite Loyola's veteran defense, Penn State was able to come back the second half with a new determination that showed in their performance as well as on the scoreboard.
"We changed the point of attack," said Tambroni. "I think that was the biggest thing. We forced them [Loyola] to have to defend below the goal line and then above the goal line. Not until that point did we force them to have to defend anything in this direction."
Coach Tambroni highlighted the areas the team will be working on going forward, building off the momentum of their second half performance.
"The poise we had coming down the stretch was a positive and maybe we can draw off that," said Tambroni. "We need to do a better job of playing with more urgency from the get-go so we can chip away a few small pieces early so we don't have to do so much at the end of the game."
The second half momentum will be the jumping off point for Penn State's practices this week. Building momentum and keeping it consistent throughout games has been a continuous focus of the Nittany Lions. With a strong performance by the defense, the Nittany Lions look to build on this further and use this game as a learning opportunity in other areas.
"We need to go back to work Monday and start to get our flow back offensively," said Tambroni.
Although the result wasn't what the Nittany Lions were working towards, their strong performance against Loyola has given the team confidence moving forward. The team will take this week to learn and improve for their match up against Villanova on Saturday.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Coming off a strong win against Vermont, the Penn State men's lacrosse team is looking forward to its first road match of the season. Traveling to Baltimore on Saturday to play No. 7-ranked Loyola, the Nittany Lions look to improve to 2-0 on the season.
Having played Notre Dame in their first road game in 2014, the Nittany Lions are no stranger to difficult early season games. Head coach Jeff Tambroni knows early tests like this challenge but ultimately benefit the team.
"It certainly gets your guys' attention, but I also think it allows us an appropriate litmus test of who and where we are," said Tambroni. "Scheduling games like this are an appropriate evaluation for your guys, so for good or for bad you know exactly where you are and you know what you have to work on."
The Nittany Lions know their road record has been better than at home for the past few seasons and they look to use this momentum to their advantage. Starting off home games with a win is great, but winning road games helps set the tone for the season overall.
"I think it's important to get off to a good start on the road," said Tambroni. "On the road you want to get off to a good start to build confidence within your guys and just establish the sense that it's just a game of lacrosse and no matter who's watching or where you're playing that it's about making plays on the field."
Away games give a new atmosphere to the game. Traveling with only teammates and coaches allows team members the opportunity to focus more narrowly on the task at hand.
"I think in a lot of ways our guys just seem to be a little bit more focused and prepared on the road," said Tambroni. "You can get away from some of the distractions that may be relevant here from school or some friends. You have to treat it like a business trip and make sure you're prepared mentally as well as physically. "
The team tends to travel by bus to most games within a seven-hour distance. Time like this is very precious in building team chemistry, as well as building relationships between coaches and the players. Many players spend their time doing homework, watching movies, or more often than not, catching up on much needed sleep.
Redshirt sophomore Drake Kreinz is no stranger to trips like these. Having started all 13 games in 2014, Kreinz knows what it's like to not have home-field advantage. The face-off specialist explained the focus of the team during the weekly preparations to take on the Greyhounds.
"To continue to bring the energy," said Kreinz. "If you don't bring the energy it's easy to lose focus so we're working on bringing the energy as well as staying mentally tough."
During last year's regular season matchup against Loyola, Penn State lost 12-11 in overtime to the Greyhounds. Although the win was one play away, Coach Tambroni emphasized the focus of this year's team is not on the past, but simply on how to get the outcome this time in their favor.
"We are focusing on Loyola, the 2015 version," said Tambroni. "We are focusing on that team right now. We want to build on the confidence that not only we build in practice, but what were able to do last year."
This year's matchup will be a tough task, but the Lions are eager to face the challenge.
"I think when you're together with your team and with the guys you're about to go to battle with I think everyone's got the same mindset and it's easy to just feed off each other," said Kreinz.
When asked what he is looking forward to most during this road trip.
"Just the opportunity to compete," said Kreinz.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - The Nittany Lion men's lacrosse team used four early goals as motivation in its season opener against Vermont. Capitalizing on Vermont's defense, the Lions got on the board out of the gate and never looked back.
Junior TJ Sanders attributed the momentum of the first half to the team's ability to communicate and work together. The team had been working to improve their on-field communication during the week leading up to the game.
"There were times we were moving the ball well, and that worked out well," Sanders said. "I think we moved the ball pretty well in transition."
Not only did the offense start strong, but the defense made an early impact as well. In his first game starting in net, redshirt sophomore Connor Darcey settled in as the quarters went by. With several shots in the first half dangerously close to the net, Darcey made sure his defensemen were in constant communication to prevent possible goals. With a sore throat, Darcey relied heavily on the veteran defense to help with communication in the backfield.
"Having them be able to command especially on days like today where I can't even talk was huge," Darcey said.
Head coach Jeff Tambroni emphasized that although the team started strong, it is important to keep the momentum consistent throughout all 60 minutes of play. Tambroni attributed the win to strong individual performances in all positions as well as slight improvements in overall teamwork.
"We did play as a team at times and did get away from it at times and Vermont took advantage of it," said Tambroni. "I thought there was a stretch in that game where we weren't playing really well offensively and I didn't think we were playing very well defensively and had Connor not stepped up and played the way he did, that game probably would've been a lot closer."
Coach Tambroni had defined the goals of the season opener as going in with a positive attitude and to just play the game the team grew up loving; no complications. Tambroni didn't want the team getting too distracted by going overboard on what was expected of them.
"We stressed simplicity today, play like a team offensively and defensively and try to play with the basics," said Tambroni. "I feel like we got away from it a little bit, we tried to do a little too much after building the first quarter lead and I thought the game got away from us a little bit."
Once the team got back to playing as a unit, the final pieces fell into place for them to pull away and win. Although a win is the ideal start to the season, no matter the final score there is always room for improvement.
"I think we need to be a little more aggressive in our attack," said Tambroni. I thought we were looking a little bit passive, a little bit timid at the attack with TJ [Sanders] and Michael [Sutton]. Those guys are going to have to be more aggressive in the future if we're going to have a sound starting three at the attack."
Small improvements to the Lions' game plan could mean the difference between wins and losses later in the season as their schedule increases in difficulty. For now, Tambroni and his team focus one game at a time.
"It was nice to get off with a win and just kind of move on," said Tambroni. "So hopefully we'll have a chance to reflect on what we did here and give our guys a chance to celebrate for a day and then start to make some changes and adjustments as we head into Loyola."

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Starting his fifth season, men's lacrosse head coach Jeff Tambroni sees nothing but opportunities for the program and his team. The first test of the season will be the Catamounts from Vermont, who visit Happy Valley on Saturday for the season-opener at noon.
The Catamounts have not been to Happy Valley since March of 2008 when they lost to the Nittany Lions 7-4. The following year, Penn State traveled to the Green Mountain State and went on to defeat Vermont, 7-5. Under Tambroni's leadership, the Nittany Lions will look for a strong start to the regular season.
"This will be my first time coaching against Vermont," said Tambroni. "I know we have film from some of their games in 2014 so we'll look a little bit into some of their general tendencies because I think it's important. I know they have a couple of really good offensive players, their leading scorer was a freshman last year so he'll obviously be a key to our defensive game plan."
Tambroni and the rest of the coaching staff have been hard at working preparing the team for the season opener.
"In a typical game week, Monday we review the film with our team," said Tambroni. "Then we get in the weight room just to get our guys back together exercising, sweating a little bit to start the week off. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays is typically the bulk of when we get our lacrosse work in. So those three days is heavy film work, heavy on field with a lift sprinkled in on Wednesday."
Tambroni emphasized that days off after games are important for recovery, as well as explained that on Fridays the team does a visual walk through to get in the game day mindset. A walk through gives the team a final bit of confidence before game day, as well as allows players to visualize the game day atmosphere and do any final mental preparations.
However, all the hard work the team has put in won't become a reality until this weekend.
"When the guys walk in the locker room on Saturday morning it'll be the first time the freshman have ever seen our game uniforms," said Tambroni. "Our upperclassmen will see it for the first time this year and that's when the heartbeat starts to change a little bit."
Saturday's walk across the parking lot to Holuba Hall will provide the final few moments of calm and introspection before the season officially kicks off against Vermont.
"I think the level of excitement genuinely changes with the reality that the season is finally here and with 13 guaranteed games you don't want to take anything for granted," Coach Tambroni said.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Since third grade, Connor Darcey has been a lacrosse player. As a child, he started off playing attack and midfield. Darcey was thrown into the goalie position when his older brother's team lacked a goaltender. He stuck with this position and has developed his skills over the years, taking in every opportunity given to him.
The biggest opportunity so far for Darcey has been playing lacrosse for Penn State under head coach Jeff Tambroni. A four-year starting goalie for Wellesley High School in Massachusetts, Darcey came to Penn State for academics and athletics. Although Darcey didn't see any action in the 2013 season and therefore was chosen to redshirt, he played in two games during the 2014 campaign.
"After his freshman year, we chose to red shirt Connor because we felt that was going to be the next logical progression after Austin Kaut graduated," said Tambroni.
Austin Kaut is a household name; he started almost every game in net for the Nittany Lions between 2011 and 2013, and started all 17 games his senior season in 2014. The 2015 campaign will be Tambroni's first year as the Penn State coach without Kaut in net.
Filling Kaut's big shoes is a challenge Darcey has faced head on. Darcey used his two seasons behind Kaut as an opportunity to learn from the four-year starter, while improving his own skills in the net.
"I think being in the position that I was in was extremely beneficial," said Darcey. "I got to see one of the better goalies go through the system in Austin Kaut. I had the lucky fortune of being behind him and making the transition from high school into college lacrosse was definitely a lot easier. He showed me how to communicate, command your defense, and just be a part of a collegiate team, which was huge."
When it comes to molding goaltenders, Tambroni says it is a team effort amongst all the coaches.
"Coach Toner will talk to him about defensive schemes and communication skills within the defense," said Tambroni. "I'll talk to him more about game management and preparation, and Coach Doctor will talk to him about day to day work and his technique and make sure he's in a good place mentally. We'll have a three-headed monster going into this spring."
Tambroni will be the first person to say that being a goalie is tough, both mentally and physically. Having coached goalies for over 15 years, Tambroni knows what is going on inside their heads. The mental capability one must have to stand in the crease and withstand the opposing teams attackers is comparable to very little outside the realm of lacrosse. Tambroni measures a successful goalie, not just by wins, but also by his overall leadership and presence on the field. It's not only important for the goalie to take control of the defense, but also give them feedback and motivation after a goal is scored against them.
"After every goal our defense brings it together," said Tambroni. "Our defense has a huddle and Connor's in there and we would like him to be part of that discussion. He can see it as the back line of defense in terms of what went wrong. You only have about 20 to 30 seconds to evaluate and communicate effectively to a group of six guys who are emotionally just not in the right place to hear anything from anyone else, especially if they feel they made the mistake. So leadership, and his ability to communicate to our team, especially our defense, is keys to a successful goalie."
The rest of the Nittany Lions defense, including senior defenseman JP Burnside, has noticed the hard work Darcey has put in before the start of the season.
"Connor has stepped up and he's doing a really good job," said Burnside. "He was in the film room every day so he's really just stepped into the roll and he's doing great."
From early morning workouts to late nights watching film, Darcey has prepared himself as best as possible for the difficult 2015 campaign. His confidence in net has developed, and with one more scrimmage against Lehigh on the schedule, Darcey looks to end the pre-season strong. He hopes to get the team in a good mental state before the regular season opener against Vermont on Feb. 7.
"With each day you get more confident," said Darcey. "And you build the momentum going into the first game which will be huge for us."
The Nittany Lions host Lehigh in an exhibition game Saturday in Holuba Hall at 3pm.

UNIVERSITY PARK, PA. - Since his freshman season in 2012, senior captain and midfielder Kyle Zittel has evolved in many ways within the Penn State men's lacrosse program. He is the sole captain of a team expected to not only compete, but also thrive during the inaugural season of Big Ten lacrosse.
As a freshman, Zittel made seven appearances, recording one goal and two assists. Zittel channeled his limited playing time, using it as motivation to improve his playing skills. In the 2013 and 2014 campaigns, Zittel appeared in every game, setting personal records with 11 ground balls and four caused turnovers last season. His performance and work ethic both on and off the field made him a prime candidate for captain his senior season.
"We believe this is an extremely important position," said head coach Jeff Tambroni. "This is ownership of your locker room. You either point your team in the right direction or in a direction that's not going to be conducive to success, however you define that."
The selection process of captain involves both coaches and players. Coach Tambroni explained that the coaches take into consideration the team's opinion of fellow players and look heavily to players who have displayed leadership skills during their time on the team. Notable key qualities of previous Penn State men's lacrosse captains have been outstanding work ethic, the ability to motivate teammates, having the respect of teammates, including taking charge and listening to others' ideas.
"The one thing about Kyle is it's not a matter of him having to change into a role," said Coach Tambroni. "He just needs to be himself and impose his will on this team because he understands what we need to be successful. He has proven that in his first three years, that's why he has had the blessing of his own teammates and the coaching staff to become a captain.
In 2014, the Nittany Lions had three captains - Gavin Ahern, Tom LaCrosse, and Tyler Travis. All three have graduated. In contrast, Zittel stands alone in charge of a team comprised of 36 young men all striving for success on and off the field in 2015. Encouraged by this title of authority, Zittel hopes to set a high bar for what is expected from the younger players.
"I try to lead by example," Zittel said. "I'm not the best player on our team and I don't score the most goals and I never not make mistakes, so there's things they can learn from me. Just as far as I carry myself into practice and out of practice afterwards and what I can do to set the way for how they should carry themselves as well."
Zittel had high praise for the previous captains and graduating seniors who helped set the tone and foundation for him during his time as a younger member of the team. Following in their footsteps, Zittel explained how previous captains have impacted the way he leads the team every day, both on the field and off.
"The previous captains, the way they carried themselves and came to practice with an upbeat energy, confidence and focus every single day was huge for me," Zittel said. "I tried to learn from that and carry myself in the same way,"
With the support of seven fellow seniors, Zittel will look to his experienced counterparts to assist in leading the Nittany Lions through their hardest schedule to date. Names such as JP Burnside and Jack Donnelley will help not only make an impact during games, but be constant role models off the field.
"Our coaching staff has flanked Kyle with two extremely capable leaders in the senior class in JP Burnside and Jack Donnelly, and their leadership certainly cannot be minimized," said Coach Tambroni. "Those two guys have been there for him since day one and will continue to be there."
With the start of the season just days away, Zittel is anticipating a competitive and challenging final season. Set to play five teams ranked in the top 20 of the USILA Preseason Poll, the Nittany Lions will face their fair share of challenges in 2015. Additionally, the first season of Big Ten play is something the captain is looking forward to.
"Seeing our football program and every other athletic program excel in the Big Ten and what it's about, it's great to finally be a apart of it for lacrosse. I think it's a huge stepping stone for our program and then also the Big Ten and the whole lacrosse community."
The Nittany Lions are set to host Army in an exhibition game Saturday in Holuba Hall at 12 p.m.
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - The 18th of August cannot come soon enough for Sandy Barbour.
Introduced as Penn State Director of Athletics on Saturday afternoon, Barbour is thrilled to begin her tenure as the leader of an athletic program that aspires to continue its long history of excellence on and off the field of play.
"When you spend a professional lifetime serving institutions and most importantly students, you dream about coming to a place like Penn State," Barbour said. "You dream about the opportunity to lead a program like Penn State athletics. Why? Because it represents the opportunity to have it all: Athletic excellence, academic achievement, community engagement and fiscal responsibility. So thank you, Eric [Barron]. I am absolutely thrilled, over the top excited about this opportunity and about being the athletic director at Penn State."
A graduate of Wake Forest where she was field hockey team captain, Barbour grew up on the East Coast and has always had a deep passion for Penn State University and its athletic department. That's what drew her to the position when she originally spoke with President Barron about the opportunity.
Immediately, Barbour felt a connection with the people, pride and remarkable accomplishments of Penn State University and its athletic department.
"I love the 'We Are Penn State.' I particularly love what it stands for. It stands for family," Barbour said.
Barbour desires to see national titles in all 31 sports on campus. But first and foremost, she will strive to lead a department with student-athletes who are elite performers in the classroom.
"We are athletic programs again that are all part of a university," Barbour said. "Our student-athletes will be students first, Penn State is incredibly proud of the academic performance of their students and we will continue to be."
Eager to hit the ground running when she begins her duties as athletic director in 23 days, Barbour wants to learn from everyone in the department, especially the head coaches leading Penn State's 31 athletic teams.
"Unity doesn't mean one opinion, and I actually embrace that, embrace the diversity of opinion, diversity in a variety of different ways, and I actually think that will make us stronger in our ability to move forward," Barbour said. "As I said before, I have something to learn from everybody, and I'll be doing a lot of listening."
Numerous head coaches were in attendance at Saturday's introductory press conference. The coaches and athletic department staff then had a chance to mingle with Barbour at a private reception before she boarded a flight to Chicago for Big Ten meetings. The head coaches in attendance exuded great confidence in the future direction of the athletic department.
"There is a culture, history and tradition of tremendous academic achievement at Penn State and that will continue," said head football coach James Franklin. "I know it's important to our president, athletic director and all of our coaches. That will continue. I know we'll spend as much time as we need to so we can start building."
"I am truly thrilled that Sandy Barbour will serve as the next athletic director for Penn State," Lady Lions head coach Coquese Washington said. "Sandy is a strong, dynamic and passionate leader. She is also an incredibly smart visionary and strategic thinker. It is exciting to imagine all the ways Penn State University, and Penn State athletics in particular, will be positively impacted by her leadership."
"I loved everything I heard today," head women's hockey coach Josh Brandwene said. "She has passion, vision and just a great understanding of the Penn State community. Both as a head coach and as an alumnus, I am really excited to start working with her."
Barbour will return to California in the coming days to prepare for her full-time return to Happy Valley on Aug. 18, and the new leader of Penn State Athletics is fired up to get started.
"We are Penn State. I'm all in. I'm ready to get going," said Barbour.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.-- "It would be tough to articulate and put into words what this senior class means to this team," said head coach Jeff Tambroni following Saturday's 8-7 win over Hofstra. "They are such a quality group of young men and they finished their careers in an outstanding fashion."
The showdown with The Pride last weekend served as Penn State's final regular season game as a member of the Colonial Athletic Association. The hard-fought battle exemplified the passion, pride and resiliency that the Nittany Lions have played with all season.
"It was awesome we got to end on a win," said senior attackman Shane Sturgis. "They were highly-ranked, everyone doubted us and we finished the year strong."
While the victory was the highlight of the weekend, the senior banquet on Sunday morning also proved to be a way for the Penn State lacrosse family to come together. The 14-member senior class was honored with speeches from Tambroni, numerous student-athletes and Assistant Athletic Director Jan Bortner.
Senior captain Tyler Travis spoke to his teammates and the guests in attendance, emphasizing the team's resiliency throughout the season and the belief that he always had in his squad.
"By no means was this season a disappointment to us," Travis said.
The Blue and White finished the regular season with a 7-6 overall record and a 3-2 mark in CAA play. Most impressively, the team finished off its slate with a three-game win streak after losing five out of six. Leading the Lions to the turnaround was the impressive grittiness and perseverance of the 2014 seniors.
"They've been through a lot and it was a pretty emotional pregame speech for me," Tambroni said of the soon-to-be graduates who were freshmen or redshirt freshmen just four short seasons ago during the coach's first year.
"We owe a great debt of gratitude to this group," he said. "To their credit they just stayed the course and came out on top."
Without the chance to compete in the CAA tournament and earn and automatic berth in this year's NCAA tournament, the Nittany Lions now must hope to hear their name called on Selection Sunday and continue to prepare.
The team can certainly make a case for an at-large bid with its impressive resume. With the eight-ranked strength of schedule in the country, a No. 19 RPI rating, and key wins over Hofstra and Notre Dame--this squad has put itself in a position with a hope to play in May.
NCAA tournament berth or not, the way this team finished this season makes for a successful--not disappointing--campaign.
"Now they walk off the field with a winning record and something to hold on to and that's adversity faced and adversity fought," Tambroni said.
The NCAA Men's Lacrosse Selection Show will air on Sunday at 9 p.m. on ESPNU. Eighteen teams will make the tournament, 10 of which are automatic bids and eight are at-large bids. Two teams will play in a play-in game.

I used a new-at-the-time reel mower for 3 years - 1989-92 when I had a lot
of grass. It was lighter than the ones we used as kids, but heavier than
new-now mowers and not self-sharpening. It was not hard to use at all on my
flat lawn. The trick is, that you don't let the grass get too long before
mowing. Reel mowers actually cut the grass, while regular gas-powered
mowers whack it. You will notice that the cut tips of the grass are
cleaner, smoother, greener with a reel mower. Overall, it can make the lawn
look much nicer and healthier.
I switched to a regular gas-powered mulching mower for several reasons, but
the main reason was that reel mowers at the time could not cut the grass to
the height I wanted. Maximum height then was less than 2 inches. The
taller it is, the more likely the mower just pushes it down rather than cut
it, so they weren't made for anything higher. This is also why your DH
complained about it - made it harder to push when you waited too long to
Today they have lots of new models of reel mowers on the market and I think
Scotts makes one that will now go as high as 3 inches. There are also gas
and electric models. If my old Craftsman ever croaks, I will probably get a
traditional reel mower. I haven't got enough grass now to warrant a powered
one. And I would sure appreciate the peace and quiet, as the blades slice,
rather than, whack, the grass.

Liam 4 Nicole
Couple get hitched!
OK! magazine are going to be disappointed they missed out on this one!!!! Finally, after nearly eight years together, long term lovers, Liam Gallagher and Nicole Appleton have finally tied the knot in a low key ceremony in London yesterday.
Unlike other celeb weddings, this one was so private that the couple had no star guests (well, unless Nicole's sister Natalie and her Prodigy husband Liam Howlett count). Instead, the bride and groom's mums were witnesses and even Liam's brother, Noel didn't make the big day!
After a quick ceremony a London registry office, then continued the party at the swanky Landmark Hotel.

text: You can't say scratch the running game, but against the Jets you almost have to anticipate a very tough road because they are so tough to run against (3.0 yards per carry all season). The Patriots are pretty much healthy on the offensive line and in the running back group – Brandon Bolden is questionable with knee soreness; Nate Solder, Marcus Cannon and Dan Connolly are all questionable as well with assorted ailments but they should be good to go. The big add, of course, is Gronkowski. His presence in the middle of the field has been desperately missed. Hopefully, he comes back with no trepidation about the arm after all he's been through. Look for this to be a bigger game for the perimeter receivers, Aaron Dobson and Kenbrell Thompkins. The Jets are usually able to stymie the slot for the Patriots and Julian Edelman is nursing a bad thigh.

On Saturday, the Panthers scored three goals in the third period to erase a 2-0 deficit and defeat host Tufts, 3-2. The Jumbos fell to 1-4-2, 0-3-1 in league play. Cameron Romoff scored the game-winning goal for the Panthers with 1:07 remaining.

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1-3/4 cups sifted flour

Very professional garage ..Recomanded A ++++
Excellent comms and service. Quick to answer/return calls, kept up to date in all matters, always felt that I was getting 5* service. Had a small problem (squeal/rubbing noise) which they resolved quickly. Fully recommended.
Nice Customer service and get a clear idea about car's problem.
This garage was very helpful, but upon getting to the Garage they had no knowledge of my messages that I had had online with someone on this website, wasted journey as they do not use this website. Be careful!! but the Garage was very helpful in recommending someone that could help me!
Good service!
Fantastic service & very reasonable priced
Very trustworthy, great job done!
Absolutely terrible service from SEV Mobile! Booked them on the Friday and they confirmed a mechanic would be with me the following Wednesday morning. I specified that it needed to be the morning as I had an appointment Wednesday afternoon and would need my car. In the days that followed I turned down quotes from several other garages as I had already booked with SEV. On the Tuesday I called the office to reconfirm my booking and check everything was ok. They assured me they would be there between 9.30-10 the next morning. By 10.30 the next morning, still no mechanic!!! I called them again to find out where they were to be told there was a 'diary mix up' and nobody would be round to fix my car until another 10 days later!!! I have 2 small children that had already been stuck indoors for nearly a week. And I also missed my appointment for that day. Disgusting service!!!! Would not recommend them to anybody!!
Unhappy as the mechanic caused further problems with my car. Good service as in prompt and good value. They did return promptly when I called them to say there was a further problem though. So it is now sorted.

These pineapple cupcakes are moist, buttery, and loaded with crushed pineapple. They are paired perfectly with coconut buttercream for a tropical treat.
I am a huge fan of fruity desserts. So it should come as no surprise that I want to fruit in all my desserts. It's a habit that I can't control.
These pineapple cupcakes have been on my mind for quite some time now. I made batch after batch to develop the best recipe possible. And these are fabulous! I'm sure they'd be even more fabulous with pineapple frosting swirled on top!!
I've used the base for my pina colada cupcakes and it turned out amazing.
It took me countless days to achieve a moist, buttery cupcake that was full of crushed pineapple and made completely from scratch. I'd seen recipes that called for box cake mix and a can of crushed pineapple.
Yeah, it's simple and probably delicious but you know how we do it here. We bake from scratch whenever possible.
I decided to top these pineapple cupcakes with the whipped coconut buttercream frosting that I shared with you on Wednesday. Why? Because it was darn good, that's why. A tender pineapple-y cupcake with a puff of silky coconut buttercream. What more could you ask for?
Stop what you are doing right now and go bake these cupcakes. It will be the best 30 minutes you've ever spent. They are amazing!
Pineapple Cupcakes
- 1 and 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple undrained
- 1 recipe coconut buttercream frosting
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with paper liners.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir with a whisk to combine. Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the butter on medium speed until creamy. Add the sugar, continue to beat for 3 minutes. With the mixer set to low, beat in the the vanilla. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gradually add the flour, mixing just until combined. Beat in the crushed pineapple and it's juice.
Fill the cups of the prepared muffin pan 2/3 of the way full. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean. Cool the cupcakes in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Top with coconut buttercream frosting.
Recipe Notes
Cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator up to 4.

De-Stress Your Asana Practice
Why do we practice yoga asanas? I would guess that most of us do it for our health and well-being, to reduce stress, or to experience inner peace. Those are good reasons. But to achieve those results, it's important to practice in a way that leads to those goals.
Remember that the word "asana" can be translated as "comfortable seat." The word "comfortable" is the key to your practice. This doesn't mean you shouldn't gently extend your boundaries—on the contrary, without doing so, the poses won't get any easier. But it should be a gradual process, approached with patience.

This review is from: GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 980 GV-N980D5-4GD-B 4GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready G-SYNC Support Video Card
Pros: Upgraded from a GTX 780 and I couldn't be more happy. This card is a beast .I game on a 4k TV (2160p) so the upgrade was needed for the HDMI 2.0 input and 4Gb of Vram. I'm very happy with this card and it overclocks like a boss. I've never had a card OC this well and I've had a GTX 480,580,680,and a 780. If you have any card less then a 780ti and you game at resolutions higher then 1080 old P LOL this is a must have IMO
Cons: None so far
Other Thoughts: The GTX 980 outperforms a Titan,Titan Black,290x and a 780Ti and that's at stock speeds when you overclock this baby GAME OVER for any other single card solutionREAD FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Intel Core i7-4770K Haswell Quad-Core 3.5 GHz LGA 1150 84W BX80646I74770K Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics
Pros: Great CPU and it works flawlessly
Cons: I upgraded from a i7 2600k and when it comes to GAMING there's really no performance increase over the i7 2600k I'm very disappointed
Other Thoughts: if you have a 2600k or 3770k don't upgrade if you looking for an increase in gaming performanceREAD FULL REVIEW
This review is from: MSI GeForce GTX 780 DirectX 11.1 N780-3GD5 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card
Pros: Runs cool
glowing L.E.D
outperforms a titan when OC'ed for $350 cheaper
Cons: Price
Other Thoughts: This card OC's like a beast I put +150Mhz on the Gpu clock and +500Mhz on the Mem clock and I'm getting 1137Mhz on the boost clock up from 902Mhz and 3506Mhz on the Mem clock and I could push a little more. This was a great upgrade from my GTX 680READ FULL REVIEW

The term 'liturgy' can be confusing to some, so a brief definition and explanation. While the term normally describes any set formal worship procedure (as in the Anglican Book of Common Prayer), in the Orthodox Church it refers specifically to the eucharistic rite (which the Roman Catholic Church would call simply 'Mass').
St. John Chrysostom was called to be bishop of Constantinople in 398. He was known for his eloquence ('Chrysostom' means "golden-mouth"), and his extant sermons and commentaries are still widely used by Christians in all denominations. Unfortunately, many of his works have been misunderstood in modern times by those who would call him an anti-Semite.
Rachmaninov composed this choral work, his first of three choral pieces, in 1910. Up until then, the best-known choral interpretation of Chrysostom's Liturgy was Tchaikovsky's 1878 work, which the Russian church actually condemned as being too "frivolous." Rachmaninov intended his work to be performed in church, though he did not use any actual verbage from Chrysostom's liturgy in the actual work. Unfortunately, the church was unimpressed with Rachmaninov's work, though they considered it "wonderful … but with such music it would be difficult to pray; it is not church music."
I would have to disagree with that assesment. The choral work in this recording is masterful, and the tone is deeply reflective and worshipful. "Come, Let Us Worship" absolutely soars, ecouraging the listener to join in worship. The bass singing the "Augmented Litany" gave me chills. The performance is powerful — something that is often unfortunately lacking in modern worship. The fact that the work is performed in Church Slavonic heightens the historic feel to the piece — the church historian in me loved that as much as the music fan in me enjoyed the beauty of the piece.
Our modern idea of worship music has devolved. We have gone from the majesty of this Liturgy to 'praise choruses.' We've gone from unaccompanied choral singing to praise and worship bands. Music is certainly a matter of taste, but after listening to this CD I found myself longing for worship music that is far richer than three verses, a chorus, and a guitar solo. I recommend this CD, but be careful — it may change how you look at your own worship experience.Powered by Sidelines

Where Do We Go Now?
Upward and onward we already went
Downward and inward has already been spent
So where do we go now?
Change a six letter word
It is harder to create than a sword
Where do we go without change?
Dream a bigger reality, dream a bigger universe, dream a better reality
Where has all the good people gone?
Swept up by the falling rain?
Dying for their muse?
Where do we go without them?
This world no longer such a beautiful world
Sadness falls.

Phone: 580-782-2371
Fax: 580-782-3148
The First United Methodist Church in Mangum is one of the best preserved examples of early-day church architecture in Western Oklahoma. Building began in 1909 and construction cost totaled $25,000. James E. Flanders of Dallas was the architect who designed the church and was considered to be the foremost architect of the 19th century. Imported stained glass windows and an Estey pipe organ, Opus 2362, were installed in 1925. The organ is still played every week.

Chairman Gershon Mesika of the Samarian (Shomron) Regional Council and Davidi Perl of the Gush Etzion Regional Council sent a sharply-worded letter to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Thursday, in which they protested the campaign of the last two weeks and the harm it has done to rabbis and others in the religious Zionist movement. At the end of the letter, the two called on Netanyahu to publicly announce that he is bringing the combined Habayit Hayehudi and Tekumah faction of the National Union into the next government.
