Reborn in Fire is the fifty third chapter of Avatar: Guardian.
Azula receives visitors in her mental hospital, some meaning well, and some others meaning harm.
Azula awoke to hear her attendants crowding around her door. Maybe Zuzu finally gave the order to get rid of me... she thought as she glared towards the door. The door slowly opened, and a guard roughly told her "You've got a visitor."
Azula looks up, to see not Zuko nor an executioner, but her mother. "What? You? But... you were banished... You're supposed to be dead!" Azula snaps. The torches in the room, all far away from her, begin burning a bright blue and Azula begins struggling against her chains.
"Azula, I've come to help you. Many horrible things have happened since I was banished... I'm sorry to say that I couldn't be there to help with them."
"You left me!" Azula snarls.
"I'm sorry Azula... I never wanted to leave..." Ursa begins, only to be interrupted again.
"But you did!" Azula snarled, causing the torches to augment massively.
"I had no other way to get back; you know I would have come if I could have. Your uncle just found me, and I'm here to stay." Ursa slowly begins approaching her, and Azula shows no objections.
Azula's dark scowl begins to vanish. "Iroh brought you back to me?"
"Yes, you're only here because it's the best thing for you at the moment. We want you to be able to leave as soon as possible. We all miss you. I tried to get back here, but I never could."
Azula finally has a smile, happy to finally have love in her life. "You actually cared? You would risk death to see me? Why?"
"Because I love you. I only want the best for you my dear. I just want you to know that I thought of you every day I was banished." Ursa embraces Azula firmly, and a small tear trickles down her cheek.
"Really? You did? I don't understand... I thought you hated me!" Azula screams, letting her fears out.
"I never hated you. I saw that Zuko was being mistreated by your father, so I knew he needed a little extra protection. I never meant to hurt you." Ursa replies, hugging Azula tighter.
"Well, we won't have to worry about father anymore. The Avatar killed him, I know it," Azula mutters.
"No, he used a newfound power to take his Firebending from him. Your father is still alive, though he was captured by a rebellious organization bent of restoring him to control of the world. Now, we need to get you out of here, I've heard rumors that they are after one of us, and I won't let them take you."
Ursa reaches inside her robe and takes out a key, opening the locks of the chains that kept Azula in bondage for the past year. Mother and daughter turn to leave the room, only to see an orange light from the other side coupled with the sounds of screaming guards. The door opens, and an old man steps into the room.
"Hello princesses," the man sneers while entering into a fake bow.
"What do you want?" The princesses ask back, in unintentional unison.
"I have a mission from a higher authority. And, luckily, it involves one of you..." The man sends a large fire blast at the two, dispersed by Azula, who counters with an equally powerful jet of blue fire. The man escapes out of the room, giving Ursa and Azula time to escape.
They begin running down the halls, but are stopped by a group of Phoenix Warriors who attempt to attack them. Azula mows through them with a massive firestorm, covering the hall in a glowing blue light. They manage to escape to the courtyard of the building and are sprinting for the exit. A single man blocks their path, different the one from before. The man was sitting on the ground, eying the entrance to the main hospital complex.
"So, you've escaped. I knew you would try to leave... so I blocked your exit. Now, to get to my mission." He sends a charged fire blast at the two, which Azula blocked by creating a blue fire wall.
"Mom, get to safety," Azula orders, turning towards her mother while sending the wall towards the man.
"I'm not leaving another of my children to a fate like this... I'll go with him, you help your brother," Ursa adamantly replies.
"No. I'm not letting the only person in the world who has actually told me that they loved me leave. I'd sooner die than let that happen. After he's gone, then we can leave, it's only a matter of time!" Azula replies, her eyes tearing. Ursa finally retreats, but still watches from a safe place.
"What's your name?" Azula screams to the man, who is still standing in one place.
"Zhian. I know your father, and he sent me on a mission to eliminate someone who he wasn't missing."
Azula had another tear come to her eye, but wiped it off her face. She knew that there was no time for crying now. "I challenge you to an Agni Kai!" The man remains silent for a long time, staring down Azula. "So, what's your answer?" The man replies with a large fire ball sent at Azula.
Azula disperses the fire ball and creates a volley of smaller fire blasts aimed at Zhian's legs. He jets into the air and sends a blazing arc towards Azula, who separates the fire and sends another blast at Zhian while he is in mid air.
Zhian quickly jets back to the ground, sending an arc of flames at her legs, causing her to jet into the sky as well. She propels herself around to behind him, sending massive fire jets the entire way. The jets are blocked by Zhian's fire.
Azula halts her attack, tired from the lengthy exertion. The young man is proving much more difficult than she had anticipated. After catching her breath, she releases a massive charged fire storm at Zhian. He hadn't been expecting her to be able to create such powerful attacks. He sends a jet of fire into Azula's fire storm, but the orange fire vanishes within the blue storm.
Zhian quickly jets out of the way and launches a fire blast at Azula's side. She creates a ball of fire around her, and propels herself towards Zhian. Zhian stands his ground and parts the swirling fire around Azula, catching her by the throat and pinning her down.
"There, there princess, there's no need to exert yourself like that..." Zhian says in a taunting tone.
Azula's eyes light up, and she sends a jet of fire from her mouth that Zhian is barely able to avoid. He kicks at her, blasting her torso with a powerful fire ball. Azula gets up slowly, one hand clutching her wound. "You think that you can win? I have something that I'm fighting for! You're not going to take that from me!" Azula inhales deeply and sends three fire blasts at Zhian, who jets out of the way.
Azula's arms swing back and forth, creating static charges. She points her fingers at a point nearby to Zhian, sending a burst of lightning at him. The blast crashes into the ground at his feet, knocking him to the ground. Azula sends a fire blast at him from a distance, but the blast fails to make contact. She rushes at him while he's down but he spins, creating an arc of fire that keeps Azula at bay.
Azula stops again, breathing heavily from the prolonged battle. She creates a spinning disk of fire and sends it towards Zhian. Zhian tries to disperse the blast, but it is too fast. He barely has time to avoid it, but Azula was prepared. She quickly generates lightning and sends the result at Zhian. Zhian propels himself up into the air and sends lightning at Azula. Azula jets into the air as well, and the two hover and stare each other down.
Zhian strikes first, sending an incredible torrent of fire at Azula. She counters with her own, and the two blasts meet in a huge cloud of fire. The two start sinking to the ground, as being in the air is creating a distraction to their attacks. Zhian touches down first, and propels himself forward while continuing the blast. Azula never touches the ground, as she is knocked off her footing by Zhian's propulsion. Her fire blast vanishes, and she is consumed by the massive fire.
Zhian looks around, realizes that the battle is over, and proceeds to look for Ursa. "Where are you, Princess?" Zhian mutters in a dark tone. He walks around the perimeter of the courtyard, looking for her. "Come on out!" Ursa is cut off by another man, the older one from before, who is seemingly more refined.
"Where are you going Princess?" the old man mutters. Ursa manages to push her way past Jiang and sees her ship. She finds the ship in ruins; attacked by another, larger ship. Jiang arrives behind her, "Expecting to be able to escape?"
"What do you want?" Ursa screams, her face glazed with her tears.
"I only want what is rightfully mine. She was in the way, now she isn't," Jiang replies in a dark tone.
"You monster!" Ursa yells, with more tears falling as she tries to hit Jiang. Jiang easily dodges, and with a swift blow to the back of her neck, knocked her out. "She's more useful to us alive than dead..." he thought to himself. He calls more Phoenix Warriors, who carry her onto the ship. He walks back into the courtyard and sees Zhian standing alone.
"Excellent job Colonel. You have done well," Jiang tells his young ally.
"Admiral, it was my pleasure," Zhian tells his commander, and the two walk back to the fleet without even a second thought to the smoldering body of a princess behind them.
Production notes
The Bos had a spark of the moment idea: Jiang Rha dueling Azula (The Bos is unsure of it having anything to do with Clash of Worlds or not). Later, The Bos changed this from Jiang dueling Azula to Zhian dueling her. The Bos hadn't come up with the idea of Zhian at this point, and he had another idea for later in the series, and felt the need to express Zhian's Firebending prowess. Nonetheless, he began the chapter, writing the height of Ursa's emotional reunion with Azula first, then the battle, and connecting the events later one. The chapter was written on two separate occasions, but The Bos is pleased with the result. The Bos also believes he was influenced by the Duel between Zuko and Azula in the canon series, mostly in the nature of the attacks as well as by the Black and White Agni Kai, also involving the scale of the attacks.

Inspired by a discussion several years back on this board and the recent discussion about extending open bottle life with gases, I went ahead and purchased a set of six small (5 oz) bottles. I've now finished a few simple experiments with two wines. The results were very encouraging.
All that I did was to immediately poor the opened bottle of wine into the small bottles till they were completely full, then put them into either the fridge, a dark room temperature space, or the freezer. Of course I also enjoyed a glass of the wine right after the opening. The filled volumes should prevent oxygen from getting into the small bottles -- as was pointed out in the previous discussion.
After nearly a week, we did comparison tastings of the wine in the small bottles kept at different temperatures. The fridge and freezer kept wines (both reds) were nearly as good as the original. The room temperature sample was a bit decreased, but not nearly as badly as a wine kept in the bottle for the same length of time.
So, I'll keep exploring this, but wondered if anyone else on this board was also playing with this idea or had other comments.

Combining Voltera V-One and Neoden TM220A
Combining Voltera V-One and Neoden TM220A
Here is an example of integration of one of our 4 input analog and 4 input digital module with freeboard.io and dweet.io.
The live data can be seen at www.snaptekk.com
I just finished testing the first prototype of the 16 analog input and 2 digital input WIFI module. The data is encoded in JSON:
{"macAddress":"5c:cf:7f:87:58:0c","channelvalues":[{"value":123,"channel":0},{"value":234,"channel":1},{"value":486,"channel":2},{"value":328,"channel":3},{"value":214,"channel":4},{"value":845,"channel":5},{"value":967,"channel":6},{"value":253,"channel":7},{"value":665,"slotid":8},{"value":147″channel":9},{"value":166″channel":10},{"value":234,"channel":11},{"value":604,"channel":12},{"value":654,"channel":13},{"value":342,"channel":14},{"value":732,"channel":15}],"channels":16,"IP":"192.168.2.203″} HTTP/1.1
The module sends the data regularly at 'heartbeat' intervals and it is configurable (SSID, Password, Server, Port, Heartbeat) via a web browser.
The module takes commands to change the configuration, update firmware OTA, reset, reboot, and hard reset.
Here is an example of a module that takes 4 analog inputs and 4 digital inputs, encodes the data in JSON and streams it to a server via TCP with REST compatibility.
In this specific example the module is taking data from 3 MQ type gas sensors, MQ2, MQ8 and MQ135 and temperature and humidity values from a DHT22 sensor.
The input from the analog gas sensors can be calibrated via independent trimmers.
SSID, Password of the wifi network, Server and Port and Heartbeat can be configured via a web command, with no need of using the serial port.
An LED indicates when the board obtained an IP address.
I had a request from a customer to add GPS capabilities to a reed sensor so the deployment of the sensors can be tracked on a map.
It is pretty straight forward to integrate a GPS module like the U-Blox NEO-6M module.
The caviat here is that the connection needs to be made via TX/RX serial, which makes it a bit trickier, but nevertheless straightforward.
The output is sent as a JSON string that contains GPS coordinates and satellite info.
I have tinkered with mostly every sensor I got a hold of and now I found a pretty cheap distance sensor. I decided to integrate it with the ESP8266 and get some distance measurements via WiFi.
The sensor is the HCSR04 and the specs can be found here http://www.micropik.com/PDF/HCSR04.pdf
It is very easy to integrate, just set the ESP to send a trigger signal, wait a few milliseconds, and receive the echo signal. The delay is proportional to the distance. My implementation returns the distance in meters as a floating point number (actually it will be a string as it returns it via TCP).
The module measures the distance at a heartbeat rate which is configurable and sends the value to a server and port which is also configurable. The server and port is configured up front while the heartbeat can be changed at any time by sending a TCP message to the board.
Here is the final board:
I started playing with electronics back when I was 10 years old in Argentina, where I grew up. Then I got my ham radio operator license when I was 16 years old and I was very active in the ham club and on the air. It was then when I built my first vacuum tube transmitter and refurbished and old receiver (also vacuum tubes) that somebody from the club was throwing away. My interest for science and electronics grew and I ended studying physics but always tinkered with electronics, whenever I could.
I've moved a lot around the world for work (oil and gas) so my dedication to ham radio pretty much faded away. But it came back! Just recently, I got my ham radio operator license back and started to get active on 2mtr and on digital.
Due to lack of space outdoors, I had to settle for installing my center fed dipole on the attic (I have a long attic), but I quickly realized I needed more than 1 antenna. 80 mtr, 40 mtr, 20mtr….
And I didn't want to run multiple lines to the attic, so an antenna switch was necessary.
I bought a 4 position manual antenna switch and very quickly realized (again) that I did not want to go up and down the stairs with kids and wife sleeping to switch the antenna. And more importantly, I did not want to run another set of cables to drive a wired remote controlled one. Wireless was the solution. I checked the prices, and they were outside of my budget for a switch. So, what's next? I came up with an idea. Get a RaspberryPi and add a relay board and then I have my WIFI wireless relay control. Add some UHF female SO-239s and we have a WIFI Antenna Switch. Well, two problems with this, first it is really clunky connecting all those coaxial cables to the relays and there would be a lot of signal loss (and good luck tuning that), its bulky and pretty difficult to assemble in one unit and that would not work properly; second, it was more expensive than I expected, even DIY it was around 100 dollars. I built it anyway and, well it worked for a while. But I was not happy so I looked around and came up with a better idea (or so I thought!). I found the ESP8266, a WIFI module which is small, cheap, I mean 3-dollars-cheap and fully programmable. Combining this module with a standard relay switch design, I thought I had a solution for way under 100.00 dollars integrated all in one single PCB board, suitable for mounting on a proper box. Lets look at the design.
The brain of the switch
The ESP8266 is a very small WIFI enabled microcontroller. It can be programmed in C by flashing it with the manufacturer's (Espressif) software development kit (SDK). But it can also be programmed in LUA using the NodeMCU SDK (open source, just Google it or go to GitHub). LUA is a scripting language used widely in the gaming industry and I picked it to program the ESP8266 because of being compact, very high level and allowed rapid prototyping.
The ESP8266 acts as an access point and/or a WIFI station, so once it is configured it acquires an IP address and then you can communicate with it via a web browser or a TCP connection (phone, tablet, computer, etc).
The ESP8266-01 used in this project, has 2 GPIOs, GPIO0 and GPIO2, meaning that we can program the module so it can read and write stuff on these GPIOs. The 'stuff' is simply digital signals, a 0 or a 1, or in volts, a few millivolts or 3.3 volts. This is perfect to drive LEDs or relays and make them open or close according to some logic and control either running on the module or instructed via a web or TCP server.
The module features a serial interface so you can communicate with it to program it.
There is plenty of material out there to get anyone going with this little wonder. The key things to know is that you will need a USB to serial module to initially talk to the ESP8266, be familiar with serial communication and able to do some script programming. For USB to serial, any FTDI232 based module will pretty much work, but be careful as they are counterfeit FTDI232 that can render useless, make sure whatever you get is genuine. Then you need to choose a serial terminal to send commands to the serial module that will send commands to the ESP8266. Something like CoolTerm or SSCOM32 would do the job. I use CoolTerm mostly on the Mac. Also, when you start copying LUA code into the module, CoolTerm does a great job.
With this brief introduction to the ESP8266, you can have a lot of fun prototyping all kinds of interesting WIFI projects.
Driving the relays
I looked a several relay types, and for this first version of the switch, I estimated going with something on the lower power side would be a wise choice, something that could handle 100-300 Watts. There is plenty of time to improve the design and make it robust for high power transmitters. I started with a 4 position switch, so I needed to drive 4 low power, low current relays. The ESP8266 has 2 GPIOs (general purpose IO), GPIO0 and GPIO2, but just 2 GPIOs, were not going to be able to drive 4 relays, I needed some logic. I decided to go with the 74HC238, a 3-to-8 line decoder. I just needed a 2-to-4 line decoder but since I had a bunch of these, lets use them, and connect the unused input line to ground. The ESP8266 GPIOs were going to feed the 74HC238 and provide the logic to switch the outputs, then these outputs will drive a Darlington power driver like the ULN2803. To make it safer, I decided to split the 8 ULN2803 outputs into 2 groups of 4, one group feeding the relays, the other the LEDs.
|Relay 1
|Relay 2
|Relay 3
|Relay 4
Figure 1
Figure 1 shows the desired truth table for the GPIOs and the Relays.
Now to achieve this logic, I connected GPIO0 to input A0 of the 74HC238 and GPIO2 to input A1. As mentioned above, A2 is connected to ground. This arrangement provides me with the correct output logic from the 74HC238 which I can now connect to the ULN2803. The cool thing here is that at all times, only one output is active, which is what we want when switching antennas. We don't want 2 antennas connected to the transceiver at the same time! Or do we?
To make convenient I added a reset push button switch and a flash switch, in case I needed to reset the board for whatever reason, or flash it if I had new firmware.
The ESP8266-01 requires 3.3 V, and no more. The rest of the board need 5V, so I needed an LM1117 3.3V regulator to bring the voltage down and keep it stable.
4 LEDs indicate which antenna is active and 4 relays do the switching as instructed by the ESP8266 and the logic circuitry. The input and output connectors are standard panel mount UHF female SO-239.
For safety, I included varistors at the feed point of the relays.
Putting it all together
I programmed the ESP8266 so it can be configured via a web browser to connect to the WIFI router. Once configured, the module acquires an IP address and then I can communicate via TCP protocol. The module responds to the simple commands 1, 2, 3, 4 to switch between the antennas. TCP commands can be sent from a laptop or computer using a simple utility written in Python, for example. If using a mobile device, there are apps that send and receive TCP commands. But better yet, I went ahead and wrote an iPhone app that specifically pairs nicely with the antenna switch. Figure 2 shows a screen dump of the app (which should be available for free on the Apple app store under AntennaSwitch).
Figure 2
The final product
Figures 3a and 3b show the final PCB board and components. The finished board can be easily mounted in a metal box for safety and convenience. It only requires a 5 VDC small supply (250 ma). Figure 4 shows the schematic of the switch.
Figure 3a and 3b
Figure 4
Final thoughts and future enhancements
I was impressed of the performance and flexibility that the ESP8266 brings. Its small and extremely powerful and if you are interested in the Internet of Things (IoT), this module will allow you to hit the ground running. Being so small and modular it allowed me to integrate the UHF connectors, the relays, the logic circuits and the WIFI module all in one board that is 3 ¼ by 5 inches and can be easily mounted on any box.

Things have picked up in recent weeks for 2011 Belton Honea Path LB/DE Darrius Williams. Plenty of schools have stepped up their interest and Williams is starting to see just how the recruiting world works exactly.
In our most recent Top 50 List for 2011 we have Williams checking in at number twenty seven. That caused a stir as we fielded quite a few phone calls and emails as to why Williams was ranked ahead of prospects who already hold scholarship offers.
While Williams hasn't landed a scholarship offer yet we still project the 2011 prospect to be one of the state's top players regardless of position. He's lined up for the Bearcats at defensive end most of his career but he'll see additional time on offense in the backfield this year to go along with his duties as the team's punter. In fact, Williams has been booting it fairly consistently over 50 yards. He will be participating in this year's Shrine Bowl combine in hopes of catching the eyes of the coaching staff there.
The list of schools stepping up with interest has been a wide range of programs. Schools like South Carolina, Florida, Vanderbilt, Illinois, Penn, Princeton and Duke are the most recent schools in the mix for Williams. Florida, Illinois, North Carolina State, and Penn have all invited the BHP standout down to their respective camps so they can get a look at him in person to assess him.
Williams also recently took in a practice at South Carolina recently as well. From the sounds of things Williams is pretty high on the in-state Gamecocks after that visit.
Stay tuned for more concerning Darrius Williams right here with SCPrepNation.com.

Goblin Boots is an uncommon card from the Distortion set of .hack//ENEMY.
Tips and StrategiesEdit
Goblin Boots serves no real purpose aside from bringing another goblin or goblin item into play while providing an extra earth-element card for spotting. It can also be used with multiple copies of itself and Goblin Gloves for maximum effect, though there really is no reason to do so unless it's absolutely necessary that extra instances of earth and fire elements are played.
Goblin Boots is a Goblin Item meaning, used in combination with other Goblin items can actually give you a strength boost, and it can be used to play Summon Goblin, the best goblin-related card in the game.

Are humans meant to die of old age? Are humans meant to be fragile? Are humans meant to be weak? Are humans meant to be dumb? Evolution. It solves all of our problems here, and we are still in the midst of evolution.
We have to try and aim for sucess. We have to become transhumans. We have imaginations for a reason. We have a brain for a reason. Capable of countless probabilites. I'm not gonna accept the fact that the human species is going to die either from the Heat Death of the Universe or the Sun becoming a red giant and killing us all.
I don't really know if we can escape death of the Universe. But I do have hope.
We are adaptable and versatile in many ways, which is how we achieved our current state of technology or position.
In a possible future,we may meet an equal(or superior) alien race. I do know that aliens exist, whether it be a microorgansism or a highly advanced technology speies(Type II).
I believe there could be other universes, possibly an infinite multivese.
We need to put our mind to it. I'm not Captain Plautiude or Master of Cliche's I just want the Human Race to evolve to point where we are in our Peak.
It's Hope, our fuel, our energy, our power.
It's all we got.

Hi everybody,
I want to know if i can do a simulation in MPI mode with AVL fire 2008, while my system is 64 bit windows 7.
Have anybody do simulation like this?
Best regards,
i installed this version in vin7 64 bite and i dont have a problem...
As far as I know, v2008 is not supported on Win7 officially..
v2008 has been released earlier than win7.
But as amin told, I guess it could work.

Formation of the Earth
The Earth was formed about 4.54 million years ago, back then there was no oxygen and therefore not fit for life. The first era of the world was name after Hades, it was called the "Hadean Eon". This is because in the early days of the earth, the planet was under going meteor strikes and intense volcanism. This is due to the large heat flow back then. Ice that was brought into the world by comets, cooled down the earth's molten surface and formed a solid crust and oceans. Continents were formed and then broken until eventually they formed a supercontinent. This supercontinent was called "Rodinia". 540-600 million years later, the process of breaking up and combining continued to create the next supercontinent, "Pannotia".
The world was once again re-shaped and created the most recent supercontinent, Pangea. The world we know today is because of Pangea breaking apart 180 million years ago. This supercontinent was located mostly in the southern hemisphere and was surrounded by the super ocean, known as Panthalassa.
Continental Drift
Continental drift is the movement of Earth's tectonic plates while volcanoes form around their edges. It was a theory created by the German scientist, Alfred Wegener where he stated that the continental landmasses were drifting across Earth. Over time, scientists accepted his theory and now know that continents rest on slabs of rock called tectonic plates. They are consistently moving and interacting with each other reshaping it's landmasses. Wegener's theory was proved by the fact that the same types of fossils and plants are found at both South America and Africa, this goes along with the jigsaw puzzle shape that is visible due to the shape of both coasts.
Tectonic Plates
Since Pangea, the plates have been sliding on the mantle's upper layer, this is a "conveyor belt" like movement that moves the plates of the crust. This has caused the continents to drift away from each other, creating the world we know today. Some obvious examples are South America, North America and Africa. They were once joined together, Africa slotting into the gap between South and North America, but now the continent has drifted East.
Future Formation of the World
Scientists have predicted that in the next 249 million years, the supercontinent cycle will create the next possible supercontinent, Pangea Ultima. The hypothesis suggests that the Indian and Atlantic oceans will get wider until new subduction zones pull the continents back together, create a new Pangea. Eurasia is said to collide with most continents and microcontinents, like when they collided with Laurentia. Roughly 50 million years from now, scientists predict that North America will shift slightly west, and Eurasia will shift East, or possible South. This would pull Britain closer to the North Pole. The prediction of 250 million years from now shows that the Atlantic and Indian oceans will have closed. It also shows that North America has collided with Africa, in a more southerly position.
Rough Idea of Pangea Ultima

Younis Khan scored a fighting 82 to help Pakistan post 230 in the fourth day-night international against South Africa at Multan Stadium on Friday.
Younis made his total off 110 balls with two sixes and six boundaries before pulling straight into the hands of Herschelle Gibbs off paceman Andre Nel, who finished with 2-44 to cap a strong return to the team.
Younis held the innings together with captain Shoaib Malik (45) after the home team won the toss and decided to bat.
Pakistan lead the five-match series 2-1 after back-to-back wins. South Africa won the first match in Lahore.
Younis added an invaluable 91 runs for the fourth wicket with Malik after Pakistan lost Shahid Afridi (nought), Yasir Hameed (10) and Mohammad Yousuf (five) by the 12th over.
Malik was more aggressive, hitting four boundaries during his 54-ball knock until Jacques Kallis broke the stand when Malik's miscued drive was well caught by skipper Graeme Smith at mid-off.
Nel, who replaced Charl Langeveldt in one of the two changes the tourists made for the match, struck twice in the 38th over. He removed Younis, caught off a mistimed pull and then had Misbah-ul Haq caught behind to leave Pakistan at 159-6.
Pakistan had a disastrous start to their innings, losing opener Afridi in the second over. Afridi miscued a lofted shot off Makhaya Ntini and was caught at mid-on.
Hameed was the next to go, failing to keep a drive off Shaun Pollock down and was held by a diving Gibbs at short mid-wicket.
Mohammad Yousuf, Pakistan's most successful batsman in the one-day series with scores of 53, 117 and 58, did not last long. He failed to beat Johan Botha's throw from the deep while returning for a second run.
It was then left to Younis and Malik to repair the early damage but when Younis departed it seemed the home team would not reach 200.
Kamran Akmal (29) and Abdul Rehman (31) gave impetus to the innings through a seventh-wicket stand that yielded 60 runs.
Rehman hit three boundaries while Akmal smashed two boundaries and a six to help Pakistan add 50 in the last five overs.
South Africa also brought left-handed batsman Jean-Paul Duminy into the side in place of Justin Kemp.
Pakistan boosted their bowling by including frontline paceman Mohammad Asif in place of Sohail Tanveer. Asif missed the first three matches due to an elbow injury.

on the Star Trek II directory placard, was he listed as "G. Roddenberry" or "Gene Roddenberry". Also, was his rank listed on the directory placard, the 1701-B plaque, or both? -- Captain M.K. Barteltalk 16:53, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- According to the dedication plaque, which I found on-line, "G. Roddenberry" is listed without rank under Starfleet Command. I don't know anything about the placard (just moved it from the other Gene Roddenberry page), but the info seems to suggest that the rank wasn't given there either. From the info it looks like the name "Gene" was provided, but I haven't seen the source. I'd say this article be moved to either "Gene Roddenberry (Starfleet)" or "G. Roddenberry (Starfleet)", with the other article(s) appropriately moved ("Gene Roddenberry (24th century admiral)" to "Gene Roddenberry (Admiral)" and
"G. Roddenberry" to "G. Roddenberry (Captain)"(ADDENDUM: I mean "Gene Roddenberry (Captain)" should stay where it's at.--Tim Thomason 18:13, 6 March 2006 (UTC)).
These seem like good, intuitive changes to simplify the article titles, with the exception that the "Captain" version had a first name assigned. -- Captain M.K. Barteltalk 17:53, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Jesus, don't take this seriously. What's next, articles about the hamsters powering the Enterprise-D and the DC-3 inside? - Chris
Removed Edit
In 2285, Gene Roddenberry was listed on a directory placard found on the 2nd level of Starfleet Academy's Starfleet Training Command. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
He was not named on the directory placard. [1]Throwback (talk) 05:41, August 2, 2014 (UTC)

During the middle of the fourth century, Macedonia (in northern Greece) became a formidable power under a remarkable king, Philip II, whose success set the stage for his son Alexander the Great's unparalleled conquest of much of the ancient world. His victory over the Greeks at the Battle of Chaeroneia in Boeotia in made Philip II the undisputed ruler of Greece, and the Macedonian royal court became the leading center of Greek culture. Fine tomb paintings, notably at Vergina, precious metal vessels, and elaborate gold jewelry give an indication of the splendor of the arts produced for the Macedonian royal family. Alexander the Great (ruled 336-323 BC) who had been educated by Aristotle, the greatest of Plato's pupils, cultivated the arts on an unprecedented scale. He maintained a retinue of Greek artists, including Lysippos of Sikyon as court sculptor,Apelles of Kolophon as court painter, and Pyrgoteles as court gem engraver. Lysippos was arguably the most important artist of his century. His works, notably portraits of Alexander (and the works they influenced, mark the culmination of Classical sculpture.They inaugurated features, such as heroic-ruler portraiture, that would become major aspects of Hellenistic sculpture (323-31 BC). Furthermore,Alexander's conquests opened exchanges with cultures as far east as the Indus River valley in modern Pakistan.This expanded Greek world would have a profound impact on the arts of the succeeding centuries.

The dark fruit notes along with distinctive and pleasant chalky sagebrush notes greet your nose at first. This Cabernet has as plush an entry as we've seen in a lot of years. A round, soft, mouth filling wine that shows a smooth backbone of tannins and balanced acidity. The finish wraps up nicely with a lingering reminder of the mature dark fruits, ever so slight a hint of new oak, and the ever present palette of flavors that make Cabernet so sought after!

The Great Pretenders
Published: February 9, 1992
For 40 Years, they were mainly figments of their own imaginations, their thrones in Eastern Europe abolished and their kingdoms held in the iron grip of Communism. But with Marxist rule a memory, the would-be monarchs have been stirring in their cocoons of exile in Geneva, Madrid, London and Paris.
If there were such a thing as a crown commodity exchange, futures in Eastern European monarchies would have fluctuated wildly over the past couple of years. The Soviet Union is no more and what was Yugoslavia is destroying itself in civil war, but perhaps -- people in "the families" like to think -- Bulgaria and Romania could be spared a similar fate under constitutional monarchies.
Hope springs eternal in regal surroundings, where everybody seems related to everybody else and to Queen Victoria (a family tree is on page 45), because of 19th-century royal matchmaking and realpolitik.
"The traditional ways of regaining the throne are coup d'etat and political intrigue," says Harold B. Brooks-Baker, publishing director of Burke's Peerage and a man so devoted to tradition that he dates his letters in Roman numerals. But these days coups and intrigues seem to be the stuff not of kingdoms but of republics and dictatorships.
What distant cousins like King Michael of Romania, King Simeon II of Bulgaria, Crown Prince Alexander of Yugoslavia and Grand Duke Vladimir of Russia are relying on to bring them back is nostalgia for the old days and bitter reaction to the years under Communism.
THE PRETENDER MOST strongly bitten by the monarchist bug is Crown Prince Alexander of Yugoslavia, a courtly, dark-haired, 46-year-old who until recently was a businessman in London with a fancy title. For a while last year he believed he was the only man who could keep his country from coming apart. For months, he offered the idea of a democratic, constitutional monarchy, with himself as Yugoslavia's unifying symbol, to the Serbian and Croatian and other Balkan journalists who flocked to see him.
When he finally went "home" last October, he was given a heady and triumphant welcome in Belgrade by a crowd conservatively estimated at 70,000. This was followed by an equally enthusiastic reception at the grave of his grandfather in Oplenac, the seat of the dynasty founded by Karadjordje Petrovic in a Serbian peasant rebellion against the Turks in 1804.
"I never expected so many people," Alexander recalls. "We really got frightened. People were pushing onto the car with enthusiasm and warmth and happiness, but it really was scary to feel the car being moved. It was incredible, absolutely incredible, and I got really concerned that somebody was going to get hurt and that the authorities would say I was creating a civil disturbance." Many in the crowd had tears streaming down their faces; they were entranced, cheering, waving, applauding Alexander's 11-year-old son Peter, the next in line for the Yugoslav throne, and chanting, "Stay, stay."
It was the first time the Crown Prince had been on Yugoslav soil since his birth in Room 212 of Claridge's Hotel in London on July 17, 1945 (made Yugoslav territory expressly for the occasion by dispensation of the infant's godfather, George VI). And it was also the last, for the old Yugoslavia no longer exists -- something Alexander had been afraid of for some time, and perhaps the reason for his references, while he was in Belgrade, to "my country" and "Serbia" rather than to Yugoslavia.
Until 1989, when Communism began to collapse, Alexander had virtually given up the idea of ever going home. A year later, he stopped his activities as a consultant in the shipping, oil refining, construction and property development fields to spend full time trying to get the monarchy restored in Yugoslavia. Like his close friend and distant cousin King Constantine II of the Hellenes, who holds court in exile at Claridge's, Alexander is said to be financially supported by a group that includes some Greek shipping millionaires. It is well known in London that Constantine's biggest backers are the secretive Goulandris family, with a fortune estimated by The Sunday Times at more than $1 billion. Alexander declines to say who his backers are. Royals are an investment that pays unusual dividends: there's nothing like having a king or an ex-king on your yacht to make a good party.
Alexander and his wife, Katherine, are not the frivolous types so frequently seen at Annabel's and other fashionable nightspots around London. (A cousin of the same name who lives in Paris travels in faster circles, and occasionally causes some confusion.) The couple live in an apartment not far from Harrods with the Crown Prince's three children from his first marriage, to Princess Maria da Gloria of Orleans and Braganca, the daughter of a pretender to the Brazilian imperial throne. (That marriage ended in 1984, and a year later Alexander married Katherine Batis, who comes from a wealthy Greek family.) He has always struck one American insurance executive who has known him for many years as dignified, modest and businesslike.

Stop Flu at School
About the Program
Stop Flu at School (SFAS), Hawaii's school-located vaccination program, is an innovative partnership between the State of Hawaii Departments of Health and Education, the Hawaii Association of Independent Schools, and Hawaii Catholic Schools. This program is endorsed by the Hawaii Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Hawaii Association of Family Practitioners.
The Stop Flu at School program aims to improve the health of Hawaii's keiki, families, and kupuna by preventing the spread of influenza (flu) through vaccination.
Through the Stop Flu at School program, all children attending participating elementary and middle schools are offered FREE flu vaccine at school, during the school day.
The program is voluntary for schools and students. Since the Stop Flu at School program began in 2007, over 50,000 students have received the influenza vaccine (inactivated influenza vaccine or live attenuated influenza vaccine) through the school-located immunization clinics annually.
If you have any questions regarding the Stop Flu at School program, please call 2-1-1, Monday through Friday, 7:00 am–5:00 pm or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Stop Flu at School (SFAS) Update
A flu vaccine is the best way to protect against the flu and everyone can benefit from that protection. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone 6 months and older get a flu vaccination every year. This year, based on Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendations, only the injectable flu vaccine (inactivated influenza vaccine, IIV) will be administered.
The Hawaii Department of Health and partner organizations continue to be committed to "Stop Flu at School" vaccination clinics this year. Due to multiple factors, Stop Flu at School clinics will be delayed this year with the majority of clinics occurring in January.
- Parents/guardians of school-aged children, especially children that may have other health conditions that place them at higher risk for serious complications due to influenza illness, may wish to speak with their child's physician about receiving the flu vaccine in their office.
- We support parents who choose to have their children vaccinated earlier in the flu season at their pediatrician's office.
- Most health insurance plans cover the cost of recommended vaccines. Check with your insurance provider for details of coverage.
- Stay tuned for more updates!
For more information about influenza or the flu vaccine, talk to your doctor or other health care professional, visit Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) or call CDC at 1-800-CDCINFO (800-232-4636).

Make sure foods you consume are fresh to be certain they are safe for consumption and that you are getting optimal nutritional value. Many of us have used the "sniff test" and the "looks-like-a-science-experiment" criteria for determining whether to keep or pitch food items. However, there are more accurate methods for determining food safety and nutritional quality. According to the FDA, Department of Agriculture, there is a "voluntary" system of labeling terminology to guide consumers. Here are some terms that are helpful to know: Expiration date: the last date food should be eaten or used. Sell by date: tells the store how long to display the product for sale. This is the last day the item is at its highest level of quality, but it will still be edible for some time after the date. Best if used by (or before) date: This date is recommended for best flavor or quality. Guaranteed fresh date: Usually refers to bakery items at peak freshness. The items are still edible after the date; just not as fresh. Use by date: the last date recommended for use of the product while at peak quality. The date is determined by the manufacturer. Basic rules Milk: Usually fine until a week after the "Sell By" date. This is where the "sniff test" comes in handy. Eggs: If bought by the "sell by" date, usually good for 3-5 weeks after you bring them home. Canned goods: High acidic foods (ex. tomato sauce) can keep 18 months or more. Low-acid foods (ex. green beans) can be kept up to five years. Keep canned and dry food at 50-70 degrees Fahrenheit in a dry, dark place. Any bulging can should be discarded regardless of the expiration date (indicates bacteria growth and is unsafe for eating). Poultry and seafood: Cook or freeze within 1-2 days (refrigerate until use or freezing). Beef and pork: Cook or freeze within 3-5 days (refrigerate until use or freezing). A good idea Write your own date of purchase on all items so that you know how long they've been on your shelf or in your refrigerator. For additional information go to: www.foodsafety.gov.

We all know the struggle. Having enough time to cook healthy yet delicious meals or having enough money to buy anything besides ramen seems like a distant, unreachable dream. But I'm here to tell you it doesn't have to be.
Saving money and time actually go hand in hand when you cook at home and plan ahead for the week.
I give myself a big pat on the back every week when I look at my grocery shopping receipt and realize it's even lower than last week, or when I do the math and realize each of my meals only costs a few dollars when made at home. Here are some tips so you can eat healthy when you're strapped for time and on a budget.
1. Make a meal plan and stick to it.
Plan your meals ahead of time. I know it takes a little mystery out of the week but saving money can be fun too, trust me! Figure out what you want to make or eat and buy the exact ingredients you'll need. No point in buying ten tomatoes when the recipe only calls for 4. This will ensure you don't have spoiled, leftover produce that end up being a waste of money and a waste of food. It also helps to plan meals that use some of the same ingredients. If you buy a huge bag of spinach, use half for a salad one day and then use the rest in a veggie stir fry the next time around.

2. Work with what you've got.
Keep in mind those forgotten fruits or veggies in the back of the freezer, dusty boxes of pasta hidden away in the pantry and canned beans or veggies that you've left to the wayside. No need in buying new and fresh produce when you still have many meals worth making already. It just takes a little creativity and breaking out of the ordinary with new recipes and new ideas. So before you go splurge crazy at the store, take inventory of what you already have.
3. Stick to simple recipes that only use a few ingredients.
A simple salad with tomatoes, cucumbers and avocado is plenty versus a massively loaded salad with fatty cheeses, meats and more. The more ingredients you add, then the cost of the meal is bound to go up. Bigger meals with fewer ingredients make it easier to figure out portion sizes. Also keep in mind that taste buds as well.

4. Set aside time to cook once, maybe twice a week.
Cooking every meal each time you want to eat is a big use of time plus who wants to wash that many dishes anyways? I like to spend an hour every weekend to cook meals I can enjoy for a few days. Make everything at once. Cook up some Brussels sprouts with mushrooms, then some quinoa and beans for the carbs and protein. Only 4 ingredients plus a few spices and I have meals for two days. Don't add any sauces beforehand, that way you can combine it with different foods and have a variety of meals instead of the same thing day in and day out.
5. Only go to the grocery store once a week.
Running to the store every time you need every little thing eats up precious gas if you're driving. Not to mention, it uses up time you could be spending doing other more important things. Keeping your pantry and freezer stocked with certain essentials will help with this. These include quinoa, pasta, rice, tortillas, onions, potatoes, tomato sauce, beans, olive oil and all the spices in the world of course. For the freezer, stock it up with corn, edamame, berries, spinach and bread.

6. Coupons are your best friend.
25 cents off may not seem like that much but little by little, those cents add up. If you're planning your meals ahead of time, which you totally should if you like to save money, modify your recipes depending on what is on sale that week. That's why they usually hand out coupons a week before they're usable, so you can plan out what you will be buying next time.
7. Make it fun!
Cooking doesn't have to be a miserable time. I used to hate it, thinking my time would be better spent on other endeavors. But after a few cooking sessions dancing to my favorite music in the kitchen, or having friends over and trying out a new recipe together, I was hooked. Love yourself, cook, experiment with recipes, dance to your heart's content, sing like there's no tomorrow and enjoy the experience.
Cooking can be incredibly therapeutic, especially if you're cooking healthy, clean food. It feels good to take care of your wallet and your body in one swoop and cooking on a budget certainly accomplishes that.

- Hoopville.net was not impressed with Harvard's student section. Hoopville noted via Twitter, "Ah yes. I've just been reminded that Harvard's so-called 'fans' don't actually cheer their team on as they're just ridiculing Cornell."
- The Cornell Daily Sun writes, "Newman Arena was filled to capacity with thousands of screaming fans, President Skorton and his wife and ten athletes ready to prove themselves. To the surprise of many, the boisterous crowd was not there for a basketball game, but instead to watch the Cornell wrestling squad. Yesterday afternoon over 4,000 came out to support No. 2 Cornell wrestling as it faced No. 15 Iowa State."
- The Columbia Spectator implies that the Lions' defeat to Harvard on Friday was a "flop" after Columbia "was coming off two thrilling victories against Cornell, last year's league champion."
- A Harvard sophomore blogs for the College Hoops Journal and writes about his experience watching the Columbia and Cornell games at Harvard this weekend. The author notes of the rise of Harvard's basketball program, but makes no reference to the NCAA recruiting infractions assessed against Harvard just this past July, which we discussed in one of our recent posts. On a related point which has not been discussed to much extent here, neither Harvard nor the Ivy League ever disclosed the specific nature of the penalty imposed upon Harvard. To this day, the penalty is not a matter of public knowledge.
- Sam Aleinikoff of Slope TV recapped Cornell's weekend as follows:
A pair of losses in Hanover and Cambridge – it's been a while since a Cornell coach has had to give a pep talk after that type of Ivy League weekend. Ten years to be exact.
The last time Cornell was swept by Dartmouth and Harvard came during former head coach Steve Donahue's first season (2000-2001). The last time the Red was swept by their travel partner, Columbia, was during Donahue's second year. The last time both happened in the same season was B.D. (Before Donahue).
In year 1 A.D., Cornell (4-14, 0-4 Ivy) seems to be finding it's way into the school's record books for all the wrong reasons. Coming off a weekend with a pair of league losses by a combined 28 points, it should be tough to be optimistic. Somehow though, the future does not seem so bleak for the Red on the other end of one of the worst league weekends for Cornell Basketball in recent memory.
Sure, there are still gaping holes in this year's squad. A consistent post presence has yet to be established. Leading scorer Chris Wroblewski is banged up, as is most of the roster. In the second half at Harvard, freshman guard Jake Matthews even took an elbow to the face from a referee. At times the Red seems lost on offense, lacking a go-to scorer who can create for himself. Defensively, Cornell has trouble fighting through screens and hedging effectively without giving up open jumpers or the smooth pick-and-roll.
Any 14-loss team has deficiencies. But this 14-loss team seems to have hope too.
"Effort" and "focus," two areas in which Courtney thought his squad struggled during the first game of the weekend were not problems at Harvard. The Red played as hard as they have all year. Errick Peck, who hadn't been able to keep food down for 24 hours leading up to the game and was winded after one trip down the court due to a stomach bug, managed to grit out 15 points and three well-earned offensive boards. Any questions of his heart and maturity were answered on Saturday.
On the glass, the Red won the rebound battle for just the second time this year despite going up against one of the Ivy's best frontcourts.
Matthews played the best ball of his young career, posting a personal best 6 points and 3 rebounds while playing 24 minutes in his first collegiate start. The freshman played tough defense on the 6-foot-5, 205 pound Christian Webster for long stretches despite giving up three inches and 65 pounds to the Harvard wing.
Miles Asafo-Adjei often struggles to find his shot, but against the Crimson his aggressive play earned him 7 points. While he was just 3-for-9 from the field he pulled down two of his own misses on the offensive glass.
Eitan Chemerinski played just five minutes, but logged a career-high five points in the limited action and provided some timely interior scoring for the Red.
More important than individual contributions though was an edge and intensity that the Red found in Cambridge. Strings of close losses seemed to deflate Courtney's group and perhaps that showed on Friday night at Dartmouth. But on Saturday, we saw a different squad.
There were fewer boneheaded mistakes, fewer missed defensive assignments and noticeably fewer timeouts where Courtney walked into the huddle with his hands in the air and shoulders shrugged as if to say, "What else can I do?"
The talent for Harvard was undeniable. Keith Wright played with the back-to-the-basket strength of a five, the explosiveness of a four and the handles of a three. Kyle Casey was bouncy as usual and provided matchup problems for the Red all night. On the perimeter Brandyn Curry, Laurant Rivard and Christian Webster shot the ball well. In the second half Curry was able to penetrate at will to set up his teammates. Junior captain Oliver McNally played distributor for the night too, matching Curry with seven assists.
The consensus on the Cornell bench was that despite losing an NBA guard in Jeremy Lin, the Crimson are improved this year. And playing what looked like a league-championship caliber team, the Red was dealt its most lopsided loss since falling to Seton Hall by 24 at the Prudential Center in mid-November.
Longtime Cornell Basketball broadcaster Barry Leonard noted a strange feeling after the game though. "I've never felt optimistic after a loss before," he said, with a more hopeful tone this time around.
The feeling seemed to be a common one in the program. Courtney made a point of mentioning the pride he had in the way his team played in Cambridge, just one night after ripping them for a lack of effort at Dartmouth in a seven-point defeat.
Courtney wasn't the only coach addressing the Big Red after the road sweep though. Donahue was in the stands following a nearby practice with his Boston College Eagles and spoke with his old squad after the game upon Courtney's request.
Wroblewski described it as a "stick together, play for your teammates" speech that the Red had become accustomed to in recent years under Donahue.
According to Courtney, Donahue "said it perfect."
After all, Donahue was speaking from experience. Ten years ago, as a rookie head coach, he stood in Lavietes Pavillion facing a similarly downtrodden Cornell squad. In the nine years following that night though, he steered the Red clear of any similar fates.
Young coaches with young systems and young players will struggle. The man largely credited with resurrecting Cornell Basketball did for years. But hindsight tells us that 10 years ago, despite a 7-20 finish with just three league wins2, there was hope for the Red. And leaving the gym on Saturday night, somehow, there seemed to be hope as well.
- Rush The Court checks in on the Ivy League:
A Look Back
Let the Games Begin: For the teams in the power conferences, February is the time when jockeying for position begins. Regular season conference games are used for conference tournament and NCAA seeding purposes. But for the Ivy League, whose season got into high gear this past weekend, these games are precious, for this is a one-bid league with no conference tournament. Only the regular season champ will begin the Road to the Final Four in March.
Poll Position: Last year, Cornell, after some impressive non-conference performances, made an appearance in the Top 25. While an early season conference loss knocked them out, they continued to receive votes each week. And given their NCAA Tournament success, the votes proved to be warranted. Trying to follow in the footsteps of the Big Red, Harvard (15-3, 4-0) received a vote last week in the AP Top 25. What have they done to impress? An eight-game winning streak and opening up 4-0 in conference helps. But it is what they have accomplished outside the Ivy which has swayed the scribes. Their three losses have come at the hands of George Mason (17-5, 9-2, currently second in the CAA) in the opening game without Kyle Casey; Michigan, a young, improving Big Ten team and recent conqueror of MSU; and #5 UConn (17-3, 5-3 in the Big East). And all of those losses came on the road. The Crimson also own wins over Colorado, who themselves have beaten both Missouri and Kansas State in the Big 12; and BC (14-7, 4-3; 4th in the ACC). Can Harvard duplicate Cornell's tournament run? Perhaps. But first they must find away to get past Princeton and win their first ever Ivy League crown.
Is the Bloom Off the Rose-n?: In 2010, RTC named Zack Rosen of Penn as the Ivy League Player of the Year. It was a somewhat controversial choice, as most gave the award to Jeremy Lin of Harvard. Either way, most observers thought Rosen would run away with the title this season. And he still may. After all, he is second in the league in scoring (15.3 points per game) and is shooting 45% from the field and close to 50% from beyond the arc, as Penn closes in on Harvard and Princeton. However, a closer look at the box score is in order. Penn has played five non-conference foes of note: Pittsburgh, Villanova, Kentucky, Drexel and Temple. Only against 'Nova did Rosen perform up to par, scoring 20 points on 7-14 shooting. Against the other four combined, he shot 9-25 (36%), including 6-14 from deep (42%) for a total of 37 points (9.1 per game). A disturbing trend? Maybe, but he was facing superior athletes than those he will see in conference games. But when Penn was going to the NCAA Tournament on a regular basis, guys like Onyekwe and Jabber would save their best performances for the biggest games and toughest competition. While it is definitely not yet time to pack the tack on Zack, the jury is still out.
Player of The Week: A difficult choice this time as there are some very worthy candidates, with the nicknames to match. There is Errick (Bushel and A) Peck who seems to be blossoming amidst the Cornell disaster; Jack (Scrambled) Eggleston who has become a stat sheet stuffer for the Quakers; Greg ("The Eater") Mangano of Yale who leads the league in rebounding and is averaging a double/double. But this week, the rosters were combed to honor an unsung hero; a player who has emerged as a more than a capable running mate for Noruwa Agho at Columbia and is responsible for the Lions rise to first division status. And that is none other than Brian Barbour, who wins the award by a hair. In Columbia's first four conference games (3-1) the 6'1 sophomore from California has averaged 19 points per game on 45% shooting. Over that span, he has also converted an astounding 27 of 29 free throw attempts. So rise from your chair, Mr. Barbour, and do an Argentine Tango while accepting the trophy.
Power Rankings
1. Harvard (15-3, 4-0)–An eight game winning streak; a six-man rotation that is as solid as they come; a mention in the AP Top 25; undefeated so far in conference. It is easy to see why they are # 1. This coming weekend will be a test and Friday at Princeton could be a game for the ages, and for the conference championship.
2. Princeton (14-4, 2-0)—It's difficult to assess the Tigers as they have only played four games in a month and none of them versus tough competition. Their top six is equal to that of the Crimson and perhaps have the experience edge. Jadwin Gym should be rocking on Friday.
3. Columbia (12-6, 3-1)–Winners of nine of their last 11; an unlucky one-point loss to Elon and a loss at league elite Harvard are the only speed bumps for the Lions. Kyle Smith has to be the front-runner for Coach of the Year and Barbour and Agho clearly the top backcourt in a league full of quality guards.
4. Penn (8-8, 2-0)– The third of the league's undefeated, the Quakers did what they had to do beating the bottom feeders at home, albeit in overtime over Brown. Two more home games followed by a five-game road trip should go a long way in determining where Penn's landing will be. The good news is that they get Harvard on the rebound following their titanic clash against in New Jersey.
5. Yale (9-9, 2-2)–Two wins versus travel partner Brown followed by competitive losses in their toughest road trip against Princeton and Penn. Greg Mangano has been a beast, a POY candidate, and with six home games in their next eight, the Bulldogs have a real chance for a top-four finish.
6. Brown (7-11, 0-4)–Two competitive losses versus travel partner Yale and an OT loss at Penn have contributed to their winless record. Sophomore forward Tucker Halperin is one of the bright spots in the league.
7. Dartmouth (5-13, 1-3)–Many thought the Big Green would go winless; the same people thought Cornell would be contenders. However, Friday's game put an end to both parts of that speculation, as Dartmouth broke a five-game losing streak with a seven-point victory against the Big Red. Unfortunately, Paul Cormier may not get another conference win.
8. Cornell (4-14, 0-4)—I wonder how many that watched Ryan Wittman and company get to the Sweet 16 last year thought the descent would be so rapid. Peck, Ferry, and Wroblewski can play. But can Bill Courtney coach? He'll have time, but his squad's four victims? Wofford, Delaware, Stony Brook, and Albany. 'Nuff said.
A Look Ahead
The loser of this Friday's clash between league powerhouses Harvard and Princeton will have to wait a month (March 5) for a rematch. It is not unreasonable to assume a head-to head split and an early March playoff to determine league supremacy and a spot in the NCAA Tournament. Princeton experience vs. Harvard athleticism. Tommy Amaker vs. Sydney Johnson. Hummer, Maddox, Davis, Mavraides vs. Wright, Casey, Curry, and Webster. Catch it if you can.
- Cornell RPI Watch: The RPI (Rating Percentage Index) is a measure of strength of schedule and how a team does against that schedule. It does not consider the margin of victory, but only whether or not a team won and where the game was played (home/away/neutral court). The formula is 25% team winning percentage (WP), 50% opponents' average winning percentage (OWP), and 25% opponents' opponents' average winning percentage (OOWP). (See: CollegeRPI.com for a further explanation of the formula.) The RPI may be the most influential factor in NCAA Tournament seeding. Cornell's RPI rank as of January 31 is No. 254 out of 347 total Division I teams. While neither the Ken Pomeroy or Jeff Sagarin rankings are used by the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee, the KenPom.com site ranks Cornell No. 219 in the nation, while the USA Today Sagarin rankings have Cornell at No. 243 Both sites are predominantly used by fans and the media.

Mr. REYES. It is indeed a sad day today. As an officer that spent 26 1/2 years wearing the United States Border Patrol uniform, it is regrettable for me today that we're here under these circumstances.
I want to acknowledge and thank the chairman and the ranking member for inviting me to go with them to Mexico City and visit at the U.S. Embassy about the circumstances around what led to the investigation of Fast and Furious. And to me, it's regrettable because we are here discussing the death of a Border Patrol agent. I went to the memorial service for Agent Brian Terry. I visited with his mom and his family that day. I went there because as a former Border Patrol agent I wanted to express sympathy and support, as I did so many times as a chief for agents that were killed in the line of duty.
So for me, it is particularly troubling that we're here politicizing the death of a United States Border Patrol agent. We ought to be about getting to the circumstances of the investigation led under a U.S. Attorney under OCDETF. Both the ranking member and the chairman know that that was the controlling entity in this case.
I don't know except to say that it's pure basic politics that we've now spun this up to the level of the Attorney General. Having had the experience to supervise my agents that were part of OCDETF investigations and having had a number of conversations with my friends on the other side of the aisle who were experienced prosecutors, everybody here that has that experience knows that those controls don't go up to the level of the Attorney General.
Mr. REYES. So we're here taking a lot of time when we should be discussing things that are a priority to the American people. We're here under the worst of circumstances for the Terry family, which all they want is closure on the death of a son, on the death of a patriotic American citizen, and spinning it in a political sense.
I really think that this is a sad day for this House of Representatives, and we ought to do better for the American people.
