2014 World Cup: Black Stars' performance in farewell match impresses Ghana coach
By Ameenu Shardow
Follow on Twitter @alooameenu
Maxwell Konadu says the Black Stars were impressive in their 6-1 mauling of a locally select side in an exhibition game on Friday not because of the massive result recorded but rather the performance of the team.
The star-studded Black Stars team thrashed the Dream Team before an impressive crowd at the Accra Sports Stadium with winger Christian Atsu leading the pack by scoring a hat trick.
The game was played to climax activities to bid an official farewell to the Black Stars as they embark on their third successive World Cup campaign this June in Brazil.
The team looked extremely impressive on the night against a side that was afraid to get into tackles over fear of injuring the world cup-bound players especially in the first half.
The Black Stars however took full advantage to score six goals against the locally assembled team who could only manage a consolation from the spot.
The win according to assistant coach Maxwell Konadu impressed Kwesi Appiah not for the result but the total display of the side on the night.
"The coach was very impressed not because of the scoreline but then the performance of the team,†Konadu said at the post-match press conference.
"The players were running and they were doing what they were supposed to do.
"This game has been very successful and I believe everyone has been satisfied.
"The supporters in the game of football always want to see goals and this evening we gave them a lot of goals.â€
The Black Stars have now ended their four-day training program in Accra and will travel to the Netherlands on Saturday evening to continue with their preparations for the World Cup in Brazil.

May 24, 2014 02:05 amWe have never ever conceded a PENALTY in our two WC appearance but that ll certanily change in Brazil! Secondly, non of our defenders has been send off in all our WC games and with the exception of ASAMOAH GYAN receiving the matching orders from the biased Serbian ref in our match against Brazil in Germany, we have always play with full strength but am sorry I can see that changing in Brazil with this four porous defenders were are sending to Brazil!! Finally, we should bear in mind that, the refs ll try to punish us with CARDS with least contact against all our three opponents and they ll even hesitate to give our players the matching orders! Even if we survive the group phase, those cards ll come back to hunt us like it did against us in the Uruguay match where dede was needed! AA should fix this problem before we enplan to Brazil, becasus is a DISASTER waiting to HAPPEN!! C RONALDO is a NOTORIOUS DIVER and is among the top ten football divers in history and he ll take us for a ride if we don't take care with him esp our defenders!selfmade says:
May 24, 2014 12:11 pm@ Dr who... Is true that conceded in an open play against Italy in Germany thru osei kufour back pass but I didn't included that in it because it was a very NAIVE PASS from osei and again Ghana was just a debutant! Thanks for thoughBenito says:
May 24, 2014 12:01 pmGhanaians were making so much noise about accam ,now people are calling for his exclusion judgmening him by just one match he played.. ??Redd says:
May 25, 2014 11:38 amI have a big problem with Akaminko. I have always said he is a big red card in waiting at the world cup.Have you guys all forgotten what he did at Montenegro?Punching a player in the face but yet we are going to present this guy to the world.AA pls wise up.We are better off with Sumaila as back-up for j. boye and j. mensah.Redd says:
May 25, 2014 11:21 amWe conceded a penalty against the US in south Africa.Pls get your facts right.KWABENA PISO says:
May 24, 2014 10:02 amwee ba, I agree with u. Jerry akaminko is not a national team material. David Accam, Mubarak wakaso and Jerry Akaminko should be axed from the team. fatau dauda doesn't deserve to be our no.1, accam's time will come at the appropriate time. I hate Jerry akaminko.Healer says:
May 24, 2014 08:12 amI wish the black stars gud luck but i have a problem dauda,i think kwarasey will do the job better for us.Mate says:

May 24, 2014 07:10 amwhatever happens in this world cup, i still believe in the balck stars. whether we exit the group stages or not, oseee Balck Stars. defending champs , france exited 2002 wc in the group stages without scoring a goal nor winning a single match. it has happened to great football nations like spain, holland, england, italy, portugal, etc. i believe with a bit of luck, BS will do well. if not, whatever happens, i still believe n love the BS.

May 24, 2014 02:54 amWith the exception of BRAZIL AND USA in Germany 06 who did beat us thru OPEN PLAY, all the goals that we have conceded is thru SETPIECES AND DEAD BALL PLAY! Infact, our first ever goal that we conceded in the WC against Italy was from a setpieces or dead ball play ie corner kick!! A short corner find unmarked PIERLO who bend the ball clinically into our net! In south Africa, Australia scored against us thru another USELESS free kick committed right infront of our defensive area, mark bresciano bend the ball over our wall, olele spilled it and Bret Hoffman score from the rebound!! Thirdly, in our match against the USA, the Americans scored from a spot kick or dead ball play when Donovan cheekily and cooly scored from the penalty! Ghana ll again give Uruguay a cheap goal thru a SETPIECE right around our defensive area!! Diego FORLAN punished us severily from that careless free kick and it still hurts me up to now!! Finally, Germany beat us from a dead ball situation thru a THROW IN! So in all our WC matches, we give away a poor free kick in dangerous positions and the opposition always take advantage of them!! Africa and for that matter Ghana can never ever win the WC if continue in this bad trend!! In Brazil, we are facing against one of the worlds NOTORIOUS FOOTBALL DIVER called C.RONALDO and if he can do his antics against the world powerful football national team called the THREE LIONS, Ghana ll be a piece of cake for him with his obnoxious antics!!pacific says:
May 24, 2014 02:59 am@ selfmade check ur facts well bcos Ghana has conceded a penalty in wc before..we conceded a penalty against USA in south africa 2010..Dr Who says:
May 24, 2014 03:35 am@selfmade, at Germany 2006 WC, the Black Stars conceeded a second goal against Italy through open play.Remember the supposed back pass from Samuel Osei Kufour to Olele that was pounced by the Italian substitute striker.lhaj says:
May 24, 2014 04:45 amI totally agree with you. As you pointed out, set piece and dead balls have always being the downside of African teams. I hope the coach will emphasize on the points you have just made in the locker room. If Ghana and all the other African teams can maintain their defensive discipline for 90 minutes, I do not see any team in the entire tournament that can outclass them. This Ghana team is by far the best team to represent the country. The only downfall however is to maintain discipline throughout the game. Go Ghana!!Topspiel says:
May 24, 2014 05:18 amThis is true, the refs could be another opponents. BS, be aware! Good luckMate says:
May 24, 2014 05:57 amThe following players didnot impress,and the not help their chances to get selected david Accam has very good pace, but his crosses are very poor non of his crosses went to team mates. Wakasu was only causing fouls he is not in form jordan ayew scored a good goal but does not look like someone who can score for you when the game is 0-0 and you need a game changer. inkoom all the other players who played right back played better than him even though he had 45minutes to impress.if seems like Jeffrey Schullp and Afful will play left and right back.

PSCFA Fall Championships CSU Long Beach
PSCFA Fall Championships CSU Long Beach
The Point Loma Speech Team won First Place Sweepstakes at the PSCFA Fall Champs tournament this past weekend against 36 colleges and universities from throughout California. The PLNU debate teams had a terrific showing. Eight of our eleven debate teams advanced to the elimination rounds. This high point tournament will no doubt advance us into the top five teams in the country for the year long sweepstakes race between all colleges and universities across the country competing in the National Parliamentary Debate Association once the results have been recorded by the national office. Many of the Individual Events competitors also had a very good showing against a tough field. Not that this activity is about trophy counts, but between the 22 students they brought back almost 40 trophies, and a number of names for new potential recruits from top community college programs that would like to transfer to Point Loma in the near future.
Dominique Marino and Troy Funk, both novice beginners to the team last year with no high school experience, advanced to the Final Round in the Senior Division and won First Place! In the Junior Division of debate, three of the four Pt Loma teams advanced to the Octofinals round of sixteen. The other Pt Loma team was next out at seventeenth rank in the field. All three advancing Junior teams won their Octofinal and Quarterfinal rounds. After beating the only other team left in Semis the three Pt Loma teams in essence tied for First Place in the division.
We greatly appreciated the terrific show of support from alumni, such as David Graham, Josh Cangelosi, and Joelle Pendergrass, that returned to help adjudicate rounds. It has also been exciting to see many of our past alumni coaching at other programs as either full faculty members or graduate students, including Kanaan, Cynthia Arrelano, Rick Travis, Wendy Harrison, Katie Angliss, Konrad Hack and others not at this particular event such as James Hazelwood and Nathan Brisby. The team's debate and individual events results are shown below. Thanks for your continued support.

Result's finally out!!!
so relieved!
It's like the end of PMR and helloooo SPM!!!!
Faris got 82% of students with straight A's. Good job guys! Lucky that I'm one of them too... Alhamdulillah....So thankful after all the blood and tears shed for PMR.
That was actually the first time I actually 'worked' for something. Yay me, I 'berusaha' at least, that's good enough..compared to UPSR at that time, I didn't give much of a damn to it as I did for PMR.
I've been doing a synopsis for Antologi Anak Laut. I happen to read the cerpen 'Lambaian Malar Hijau' and it kinda reminded me to the Post Brooke kids that we babysat. I secretly wished they had the spirit that the character Daneng had to excel in his academics and obtain a better life for himself and his indigenous community. actually, it sholud apply to all schoolchildren. If they had that conscience, they would take that same initiative to do better and try harder to obtain more from their learning and benefit from it, instead of just 'passing' exams. learning is for life. Sometimes I wonder if I'm just smart on the paper..hmm..

Lower abdominal pain, foul smelling urine10/28/2008 |
For over a week now I have had lower abdominal pain/pressure with intermittant frequent urination and a constant foul smell. Recently I have developed further, more intense pain after drinking anything carbonated especially beer. This pain starts in my flank and travels back to my left kidney. Only after days of drinking nothing but water does the pain subside. I have had a CAT scan and blood work that all comes back negative. Please tell me if you have any ideas. Thank you
If you have not been seen by a Urologist you should have a cystoscopy. Foul smelling urine is generally caused by infected urine. If the CT scan was a non contrasted study looking for stones you may need a different study looking for abnormalities such as an obstructed kidney because of a blockage near the kidney (UPJ) or even a communication with the bowel.

Comment Yup, it's not paper costs, it's publishing et al (Score 1) 419
I had a few classes where we didn't have a textbook, but rather the professor had us buy a packet of note slides as the textbook replacement. It still cost us $15 a book, yet was essentially 50 pages of double-side copy paper put into a plastic ring binding and paper-card cover. The only reason for charging $15 a book was because that's how much kinkos charged to bind the pages together.
Publishers charge a 'decent' fee to print, bind, and ship textbooks. That's why they cost so damn much, especially when it's a specialized class with a limited print pushed through. They got equipment to pay off and executive under salary. And everyone wants a profit from each slice of the process. But $140 a book is a total scam.
I wish all my classes gave me the option of printing my books at kinkos for $15.

The simplicity and glory of the natural world is just right outside New Orleans and Baton Rouge. When you want to get away into the peaceful quiet only nature can offer head to the Tunica Hills Wildlife Management Area, a unique outdoor wonderland of untouched land, dirt trails, diverse wildlife, and opportunities to hike, hunt, and enjoy a day in the wild woodlands of Louisiana.
Tunica Hills Activities
Tunica Hills is a large area of over 5,906 acres and offers an extraordinary refuge for outdoorsy folks who love hiking, sightseeing, bird watching, wildlife viewing, and camping. The area has unique topography of rolling hills and a wide variety of animal inhabitants—some not found anywhere else in Louisiana. During Fall, the vast upland hardwood forests explode in color and are perfect for viewing the changing colors. Stroll on the nature trail with the family or try any of the three different hiking trails to view the Tunica scenery. A variety of wildlife calls Tunica Hills home, including white-tailed deer, squirrel, rabbit, wild turkey, eastern chipmunks and resident and migratory birds, including several rare in Louisiana, such as the worm-eating warbler and the Coopers hawk.
Hunting in Tunica Hills
Tunica Hills is a hunter's paradise! Deer hunters love Tunica Hills, which also features unique opportunities for small game and turkey hunting. Activities like hunting and trapping still reign supreme across stretches of Louisiana where families continue long held traditions of bringing home food for the table. See hunting regulations in Tunica Hills.
Things to Know Before You Go
- You'll find a nature trail with designated hiking trails accessible from Old Tunica Road on the South Tract, but don't expect overdeveloped trails. Check out this Tunica Hills map for boundaries, designated camping area, check station locations, and trail locations. You can only camp at the designated camping area on Parker Road, and only tent-only camping is permitted.
- All visitors must use self-clearing permits for all activities on Wildlife Management Areas (WMA). Get your free permit at check station kiosks on the WMA. Additionally, all WMA visitors ages 16 to 59 must possess either a valid Louisiana hunting license, fishing license, or Wild Louisiana Stamp. Licenses can be purchased from any hunting and fishing license vendor in the state, as well as over the phone (1-888-765-2602) or online.
- While Tunica Hills is open year-round, hunters may enter no earlier than 4:00 a.m. and must exit no later than two hours after sunset. WMA access is also restricted during certain dates in the hunting season, so visitors should refer to the WMA guidelines for information and season dates. Additionally, the WMA is closed to all activities, except fishing, during the youth lottery turkey hunt each year.

Movie SummaryThe Girl of Your Dreams (La nina de tus ojos)
Description: Based on an allegedly true story of how during the fascist era of the 1930s the Nazi Party's head of propaganda, Josef Goebbels, fell head-over-heels in love with the reigning Spanish cinema queen when the latter visited the Ufa studios in Germany. Singer Macarena Granada is shooting a cheesy musical in Berlin when Goebbels comes into her already ailing relationship with the film's director. She is unsure what to do about his advances, but he does provide some Jewish extras for the film. Then Macarena falls for one of these extras, and realises that after the film is done, he and the others will be taken to a concentration camp. Movie summaries and listings powered by Cinema-Source

This time last season, Rich Rodriguez had a pretty good feel about the Arizona Wildcats without ever coaching them in a game.
The reason was really because of one player: Matt Scott.
"This year, there's as much uncertainty or more because of some of the key positions like quarterback and other spots," Rodriguez said after the team's first workout of the day this morning. "I knew Matt Scott was going to be a player from the first practice last spring. This year, I think we have some guys with some talent, but there are certainly some concerns there."
When the coach was asked by an out-of-town TV reporter if B.J. Denker and Jesse Scroggins were the top two guys at the quarterback position, Rodriguez replied: "Nope. That tell you enough there?"
So the QB competition carries on without a clear leader or leaders.
Some other news and notes from today's two practices:
• The night practice featured a handful of players in yellow jerseys--signaling they weren't allowed to participate in practice because of an injury. Some of the players in yellow included safety Wayne Capers Jr., receiver Trey Griffey, defensive end Reggie Gilbert and linebacker Dakota Conwell. We'll check in tomorrow as to what's ailing the sidelined players.
• The Wildcats wore full pads for the night workout. It was just the second time this camp the team has been in full pads. Rodriguez and the UA will practice at 6 p.m., tomorrow and then go back to two-a-days on Thursday. The team was back in its normal practice space at Kindall/Sancet Stadium. The field was being resodded over the past week, forcing the UA to practice at Arizona Stadium when they weren't at Fort Huachuca. But, it was determined today the field was ready to go, so the team moved back in for now.
• The UA announced its game against University of Texas-San Antonio on Sept. 14 will kick at 7:30 p.m. Four of the team's 12 games now have set kick times. The USC game, UNLV contest and now UTSA will all begin at 7:30 p.m. The team's opener against NAU will kick at 7 p.m.
• If you missed the blog on the UA earning a commitment from former Texas wide receiver Cayleb Jones, check it out here.
Here are a few quotes from today's morning workout. There was no media availability after the night practice.
• Rodriguez on Dave Sitton, who passed away on Monday: "He was one of the first guys I met. He was a great person, great in the community, great U of A guy. It's really tragic. I heard the news yesterday. I was new, but he was one of the first guys that welcomed me and my new staff when we got here."
• Rodriguez on targeting: "You shouldn't be coaching targeting from before. Anyone who was teaching or letting kids target before, teaches them wrong. I don't know any coaches that taught that way. I just think they're going to be calling some hits that maybe you thought was legal in the past as a target. So you have to make sure you clarify that. But a true targeting--there's no place for that anyway."
• Rodriguez on WR Clive Georges running with the first-team: "He's not. There's no first group. It's by attrition a little bit. He's gotten bigger, he's gotten stronger. It's important to him. Clive's going to be able to play a little bit. There's nobody that has a starting job on offense yet."
• Rodriguez on when he would like to determine a true first and second team: "By game week. I don't feel a sense of urgency to do it before then. I think what's more important to us is to limit who is going to get reps. Our first and second group and anyone that shows they're good enough to win with--it could be three at every position. If there's three at the position to win with, they're all going to get reps.
"By the end of the his week, two weeks before the game, you have to pare down who is going to get the quality reps. Not so much who's one or two. I've never been a big believer in that. Our twos get as many reps as our ones. The biggest thing for us is finding the guys we're able to win with and then getting those guys down to get all the reps the two weeks before the game. We have four or five days before that happens."
• Rodriguez on if the defense will be more aggressive this year: "I hope so. If you give up 500 yards a game, you have to do something. Hopefully we'll be more aggressive."
• Rodriguez on the offense: "I don't like anything where it's at on offense. But I'm probably in that same mode every year at this point of camp. Our offense probably takes a little bit longer to execute and get all the things cranked out. We've got some good running backs and I think we'll be OK up front although I don't know how much depth we have."
• Running back Daniel Jenkins on the second week of camp and his role: "It's tough. It's always tough during camp, especially when you get into the meat of camp. You start two-a-days, it's hot out here, guys get tired and their legs are sore. It definitely has be leadership, vocal and by action. I'm trying to do my best."
• Jenkins on Rodriguez's unhappiness with the offense: "It's definitely not something we want to have. Coach is telling us to do something over and over again and we're not getting it right. It's going to take more on our part. They've been running this offense for 25 years. They know exactly what they're doing. It's going to be up to us to execute and take to what they're learning and get in the film room a little bit and start paying more attention to detail and what they're asking of us."

I've been known to shed a tear (or in the case of "Funeral," 4,000 tears) during "Glee." I'm willing to admit some of those tears may have been more manipulated than earned (again, "Funeral"). The gods atop Mt. Glee often deliver messages to their masses via preachy melodrama that is intensified by popular music and scathing wit. They are not known for subtlety, which could perhaps be more engaging and less insulting to their audience.
But there are times when a booming, unmistakable outcry is actually the best way to communicate, which Ryan Murphy & Co. achieved with this week's episode.
I don't mind if my tears marked me as easy prey to a Very Special Episode. Nor do I think that one hour of television can instantly mend a state of deep-rooted social unrest.
But I do consider distressing events or issues to be fair game for exploration in art and entertainment. I'm glad the writers of a show set in an American high school acknowledged the recent teen suicide epidemic and contributed to the ongoing media conversation about it.
In "On My Way," former WMHS bully Dave Karofsky became the victim of face-to-face and online harassment after a classmate blabbed about overhearing him profess his love to Kurt at Breadstix on Valentine's Day.
Catch Up on Last Week's Episode of "Glee":
[iframe http://xfinitytv.comcast.net/tv/Glee/103049/2200186247/Heart/embed 580 476]
We later learned that his mom also rejected him for his sexuality, claiming he could be "cured." After agonizing alone in his bedroom, he decided to hang himself. Fortunately his dad found him in time to save his life.
These scenes interspersed with Blaine singing Young the Giant's "Cough Syrup," were challenging to watch, which was obviously the point. The shot of his father finding him was unnecessary for me, but maybe it was the jolt that awakened someone else – like a parent – to an issue they'd been passively avoiding before.
Karofsky's suicide attempt spurred varying yet similar reactions within our familiar group of faculty and students.
Schue shared a story of his own thoughts of suicide in high school after a shameful academic experience (he got caught cheating on an exam). The scenario may seem unimportant, but social pressure isn't the only kind that can wear a teenager down. It was a great example of how each person's biggest problem is just that – huge – to him or her. Schue encouraged everyone to think of experiences they could look forward to.
Kurt felt guilty for not answering Karofsky's post-confession phone calls, so guilty that he turned to the God Squad for support. He eventually got to visit Karofsky in the hospital, and he passed on Schue's advice to dwell on the happy times ahead.
Finn and Rachel decided that each day was too precious to spend not married to each other and bumped up their wedding to take place right after Regionals that weekend.
The only thing that didn't work for me was the treatment of the villains, Sue and Scumbag Sebastian. Sue has been developed as a multi-dimensional character, so it made sense when she felt remorse and sadness. She's not a robot. She's even allegedly pregnant, which is possibly spurring her sudden (maternal?) desire to help ND win Nationals.
PS – I hereby place my bet that David Boreanaz is the baby's father.
However, Sebastian has been presented as a total cyborg devoid of human feelings. I'm not saying people can't be moved by a dramatic event, but his guilt over saying jerkish things to Karofsky extended so far that he dropped his scheme to win Regionals for the Warblers and went all smiley. I guess I can buy that it would take an actual near-death experience (as opposed to merely maiming Blaine) to pump some decency into the guy. But his instant transformation was unsettling, what with my undying need to hate him and all. Plus, even if he saw the light, I wouldn't be mad at the glee kids for holding a grudge for like five minutes.
In the end, once Karofsky had an ounce of hope to cling to and New Directions had a new Regionals trophy to polish, all that was left was the Finnchel wedding at the courthouse. Their parents, led by Jeff Goldblum, maniacally plotted to stop the nuptials. Finn and Rachel were full speed ahead, except Rachel didn't want to start without Quinn there.
Here's where the foreshadowing happened for what the next regularly scheduled preachy episode will be about: texting and driving. Because Rachel and Q's frantic text convo caused Q to miss the sight of a truck barreling toward her car, she got in a horrific accident. So now we have to wait until April to find out Quinn's fate.
And there you have a heavy winter finale from "Glee" with relatively no sass from me. Instead of closing with my usual explosion of superlatives (such as how Brit's wish to see Lord Tubbington kick his ecstasy habit was the best future goal), I'll plug some organizations that you should check out if you'd like to be part of the movement to help real life kids like Karofsky.

But it's just a stub compared to the Sky Tree, Japan's 2,080-foot tall communications centerpiece and the second tallest building on the planet, dwarfed only by the Burj Khalifa. Advertisement The Sky Tree is located in Sumida, Tokyo and cost $806 million to complete, which includes a two-month delay on account of the devastating earthquake and tsunami. Over half a million workers aided in its construction which concluded Wednesday.The tower includes numerous communications arrays necessary because the current 1093-foot Tokyo Tower is no longer tall enough to bounce video and radio transmissions past the surrounding high-rises. They'll also help improve digital signal coverage as Japan quit all analog broadcasting in July of last year. The tower will also include office space, broadcasting facilities—it's home to seven Japanese broadcasters spearheaded by NHK—dining and shopping areas areas, and observation decks as well. These decks will rise from the tower's 1,312-foot-wide base, at heights of 350 and 450 meters, respectively. They'll open to the public on May 22, 2012.

The minimap, or mini map, is a circular, zoom-able overhead view of the area around your character (represented as silver arrow pointing the direction your character is facing).
Besides being able to zoom the view in and out, the minimap has a variety of informational UI features.
Minimap features Edit
Location name and World Map button Edit
- The name of the current location of your character appears at the top of the minimap with a button to bring up the World Map ().
Terrain and buildings Edit
- A reasonable shadowed, textured view of the surrounding terrain appears in the minimap.
- Rough silhouettes of buildings (mostly to scale) also appear on the minimap.
Calendar Edit
- In the upper right corner of the minimap appears the calendar icon () with the date inside. Replacing the Day/Night indicator during , this feature allows you to quickly see today's date.
Character locations Edit
- Your character (): Your character will appear as silver arrow pointing the direction your character is facing always at the center of the minimap.
- Your objectives: If you currently have objectives for a quest you're tracking a large golden arrow () will appear along the edge pointing you on where to go.
- Your corpse (): If you die, your corpse will appear and a small tombstone on the minimap and an arrow () on the edge of the minimap circle will point to it if it is out of view.
- Your Graveyard: If you die, but don't press the "Release Spirit" button, there will be a golden arrow () pointing towards the nearest available Graveyard.
- Party members: If your character is in a party, any party members will appear on the map as colored dots (matching the color of their class).[citation needed] Arrows () on the edge of the minimap circle will point to party members out of view.
- Raid members: If your character is in a raid, any raid members, not directly in your party, will appear as a fully colored blip with a black dot in the middle.[citation needed] Arrows () on the edge of the minimap circle will point to raid members out of view.
Flight masters Edit
Flight masters that you have not yet gotten the flight point for will display on the minimap as a light green exclamation point ().
Detected creatures or resources Edit
Moving the pointer over the blip will give the creatures name.
- A small circular indicator at the top-left of the minimap shows the current detection method ability (like Hunter's Track Beasts, Herbalism profession's Find Herbs, or Mining's Find Minerals). You can right-click on this indicator to change the kind of tracking that is active.
- Any detectable hostile creatures appear as gold-outlined red blips ( ; like with the Hunter ability, Track Beasts) with players have a slightly different gray-outlined red blip ( ).

Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll the balls in the 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a 350F oven 10-12 minutes or until edges are firm and bottoms are lightly browned. Immediately press a chocolate kiss into each cookie's center. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; let cool. Makes about 54 cookies.
MAKE-AHEAD TIP: Bake and cool cookies completely, pressing chocolate kiss into hot cookie center. Arrange cookies in an airtight or freezer container in a single layer; cover with a sheet of waxed paper. Repeat layers, leaving enough air space to close container easily. Freeze up to 1 month.

By Akyereko Frimpong Manson
Accra Hearts of Oak advanced to the next stage of the MTN FA Cup after beating second-tier side Tamale Utrecht 3-0 on Sunday.Â
A second-half master-class performance from David Duncan's men helped them to a 3-0 win at the Tamale Sports Stadium.
New signings James Bissue, Winful Cobbinah and Owusu Bempah registered the goals for the ten-time FA Cup title winners.
Bissue opened the scoring for Hearts shortly after the hour mark with a well-taken free-kick.
Winful Cobbinah then beat the offside trap to increase the tally for Hearts before former New Edubiase United defender Owusu Bempah wrapped up the win for Hearts just before the full-time whistle.
The win serve as a good preparatory game for the Phobians as they prepare to take on King Faisal in the first game of the second of the Glo Premier League.

Dear Mr Modi,
You will be our next Prime Minister and lead this great country that I love deeply. Your mandate is greater than any party has had in decades, and it is yours to squander. The people of India have spoken loudly and clearly, but for me you need to start by reaffirming the most sacred duty of a Prime Minister: that of protecting ALL children of India without regard for their religion, caste or creed. This duty must extend beyond protection. You must also provide equal opportunity to every Indian, giving each one a chance to lift himself from poverty with the benefit of an education.
For the record, I have long abhorred the Congress-led vote-bank politics of pseudo-secularism that they have played over the last sixty plus years. All they have done is paid lip service to the word, doing nothing to help liberate our downtrodden. They have given sop's to buy votes in the name of helping people, and created quotas in the name of providing opportunity. This has merely created the illusion of opportunity, and pushed people into jobs for which they are ill-qualified. This has led to further resentment. The Congress Party has done a great disservice to secularism merely to maintain their corrupt grasp on power.
We have the third largest Muslim population in the world, a fact that should make us all proud. They are a part of the rich fabric of our culture and its vibrant history. Now it is time they became an intrinsic part of our future. In many parts of the country, Muslims are still treated like second-class citizens or viewed with great fear and mistrust. Many believe they are terrorists, or that India will be better off without them.
Much of this is due to irresponsible vote bank politics, but it is equally due to the fact that it has been convenient to let the majority of Indian Muslims live in the dark ages, under the thumbs of medieval mullahs, who in the name of religion have imprisoned their minds. "Muslims have the lowest literacy rates among all religious communities in the country…" (Source:) There is no question that the Congress and their allies have been complicit in allowing this to continue. You can and must change this.
There are many well educated people who have come to believe that Indian Muslims are holding our country back. Some have told me that they believe we should pack all the Muslims off to Bangladesh or Pakistan where they belong. To all these people (and the RSS) I say, let us for a moment look at every country in the world that has staked their national identity on a religion or ethnicity. Where are they today? Do we want India to become a Hindu state so we can be more like a Pakistan or Bangladesh, an Iran or Saudi Arabia or even a Russia? Is this what the next generation really wants?
Every country that has chosen to define itself based on religious affiliation, and discriminated against everyone else, has suffered lack of innovation mainly due to lack of diverse talent. These countries will never become economic powerhouses. The fact is that economic might is derived from inclusion rather than exclusion because a great idea knows no color, caste, creed or religion. Americans realized this a century ago and made an effort to embrace people of all races and religions. The aim was to attract the brightest and best minds from around the world with the lure of higher education, equal opportunity and a reasonably level playing field. Ultimately, it is the diversity of our cultures that enables world-beating innovation, which in turn is the most potent engine for job creation and sustained economic growth. Unlike any other country in the world, India's veins are already bursting with rich and diverse talent – just imagine what we can accomplish if you can help unleash this. India will truly shine.
You must provide every Indian with the right to education, and free all people from the tyranny of ignorance. Put every girl in school, affording her the same opportunities that a boy gets in life. Reaffirm the fact that without our diversity we would be a lesser country and a weaker nation. This is the challenge the people of India have put forth to you. Let your legacy be that of an RSS man who took great pains to wipe away the notion of India ever becoming a Hindu state. But if you take us down a path of communal discord or begin to allow the RSS machinery to start creating subtle and more sophisticated 21st century apartheid like apparatus to discriminate against non-Hindus, then India will once again overwhelmingly choose corruption over communalism at the ballot box in five short years.
So give us the prime minister who helped us beat China (which EVERY Indian knows we can) by unleashing our potential with unbiased leadership, transparent government, business-friendly and consistent policies, all built on a truly secular vision for India.
Give us toilets; not temples…Jai Hind!
A Citizen of India

A surprising haven for some of the most talented acts in music, the Falcon in Marlboro has become a "getaway" venue for many artists and is garnering a reputation as a "go to" place to hear world-class artists locally. A lot of credit for this attraction goes to owner Tony Falco, and his ability to create a welcoming atmosphere for people who really like to listen and those who like to play.
Falco grew up on Staten Island in the same neighborhood as David Johansen (New York Dolls, Buster Poindexter), the legendary musical chameleon and one of the original punk rockers. They've known each other for such a long time, it's a natural for Johansen to make the trek up from the city to play here. This time he'll be performing with multi-instrumentalist and longtime collaborator Brian Koonin on guitar and drums.
- Mimi Estes
What: David Johansen Duo with Brian Koonin
When: 8 p.m. April 5, Opening act, Jim Keller with Scott Metzger at 7 p.m.
Where: The Falcon, 1348 Route 9W, Marlboro
Price: Artist donations suggested

Pine Bark Mulch is removed from pine tree logs, then ground to the appropriate size of mulch. With a color ranging from bright reddish brown to dark reddish brown, it has a distinctive smell only associated with pine. Pine Bark Mulch is composed of different sized chips of pine bark. Since Pine Bark is lightweight and non-fibrous, it is not recommended for sloped areas as it has a tendency to float and/or wash away.
Product Specifications:
Pine Bark Mulch, which is derived from the debarking process of pine logs in the commercial wood processing industry. The resulting bark chips are then ground using a commercial grinder through 3" screens to produce a mulch uniform in texture, sized from 3" to fines, color ranging from bright reddish brown to dark reddish brown, a pH ranging between 6.0-7.0 and low in salinity. Pine Bark Mulch is supplied by Living Earth. More info at www.livingearth.net
Standard Applications:
All trees and shrub areas shall be mulched immediately after planting. Trees and shrubs shall be mulched, as shown. Spread mulch in bed area, to a depth of three inches (3"), uniformly to cover all planting pits, keeping mulch away from plant stems.

text: Yes the normal 'sale' price. The prices of commodities are varied all over the place. It's become a chronic habit for grocery stores to play games with it. It use to be illegal but they are returning to there bad habits of yesteryear of abusive tricks with pricing. I've seen all sorts of things stores pull these days. Then again shoppers do the same thing. Lets face it the world is very materialistic and they kill to get stuff these days hence Black Friday should be a day of mourning not 'whatever' it is people think it is. Cyb

It's just Life
The other Reader critic gets the rest: Personal Shopper, Wilson, and Raw
Matthew Lickona 2 p.m., March 24
Who'd have thought spending 90 minutes in a car with Selena Gomez could be this stagnant? A disembodied voice orders a former race car driver (Ethan Hawke), whose wife he holds hostage, and a banker's daughter (Gomez) to do his nefarious bidding in this extended commercial for the Shelby Super Snake Mustang. At least 70% of the film is an extended car chase, and with a dozen or so cameras affixed to its body, the souped-up sardine can does the lion's share of the cinematography. Apparently cut together during an earthquake by an editor with a seizure disorder and bad case of the hiccups, Courtney Solomon's Getaway is one of the most haphazardly strewn together films ever to be released by a major studio. Only one moment — a jagged, unbroken long take that follows a car as it slaloms in and out of traffic — left me grabbing at the armrest. 2013.


text: Metal Gear Creator Didn't Plan To Be Involved In New Metal Gear GamesBrian Ashcraft6/13/09 12:00amFiled to: KonamiMetal Gear Solid 4Metal gear solid: peacewalkerHideo KojimaNewsMetal gear: rising41EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Remember when Hideo Kojima said Metal Gear Solid 4 was the last MGS he was designing and he was handing off the series so he could presumably work on new and different titles? Advertisement Well, scratch all that, because Metal Gear Solid 4 was a big hit for Konami and Kojima works for Konami. So no wonder he's back lending his name and expertise to a couple new Metal Gear games — instead of spreading his wings and trying new, unproven titles or revisiting old franchises. (Snatcher, Zone of the Enders, anyone?)The designer initially did not want to be involved with PSP title Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. "At first, I was just going to create the overall guidelines and concepts for the project, and leave it in the hands my excellent staff," says Kojima. "I was going to have a hand in the project as a producer, and make titles other than MGS. But, I set the game in the South American(sic) country of Costa Rica and created a story with themes about nuclear deterrence and the cold war. It looked as if it might be very confusing to young people, because of generational differences. So, in the end I finally said, 'I'll do it.'" Phew — because he obviously knows about Costa Rica and none of his other games are confusing. Peace Walker is in good hands. Advertisement Kojima was also dragged into home console title Metal Gear Solid: Rising as well, because "it's a completely different kind of action than what has appeared in the series so far". The MGS creator adds, "I'll be working more deeply on the project then a normal producer." Delightful if you're ready for more Metal Gear, not so much so if you were looking forward to something else. Fingers crossed that after these titles are released, Kojima will finally be able to move on.Kojima Explains Why He Took on MGS: Peace Walker, Introduces "Love Box" [GameCenterOnline via PS3 Center]Reply41 repliesLeave a reply

The Dr. Pat Show: Talk Radio to Thrive By!: The Questionable Parent with Glenna Rice: Body Wisdom, How Harmony with Your Body Improves Health
Dr. Dain Heer is an Energy Transformation virtuoso, author, international speaker and workshop facilitator, and is best known for his unique energetic transformation process, called The Energetic Synthesis of Being.
Dain had to turn to his phenomenal knowing from a very young age growing up in a ghetto in Los Angeles. He was the only white face in 5 miles of where he grew up. He didn't see the difference between him and others and still doesn't. Dain came with amazing awareness into a world of lack, cruelty and abuse. He came from a family where half had no money, and the other half had money. He was constantly exposed to mental, physical, emotional, sexual and monetary abuse. Everything he chose and wanted was taken from him. He learned that he didn't own anything very early on.
But Dain never chose to be a victim; even after all the abuse he suffered. Along the way Dain discovered personal transformation, allowance, courage, and resilience. He has learnt to transform lifes challenges into a gift of strength. In the end, what came forward was the kindness, which is still him. Each of us has that place in us where we can choose a kindness or we can choose to be a victim. Dain always chose kindness.
Over time what he recognized as the gift he was, was the awareness of energy and the ability to tap into and recognize his own abilities and knowing. His gift is his ability to look at life, change the energy and assist people to heal themselves from a position that no one else has ever chosen. He is a man who recognizes that the capacity to tap into energy, abilities and knowing is every person's gift if they are willing to choose it.
Dain has become an internationally recognized thought leader in transforming lives and creating different choices willing to empower people to see different possibilities and to recognize what is truly possible for them. He has a completely different approach to healing by facilitating people to tap into and recognize their own abilities and knowing. The energetic transformation possible is fast and truly dynamic.
He is acknowledged worldwide for his unique perspectives on personal transformation that is unlike anything else in the world. Dain invites people to more consciousness from total allowance, caring, humor and a phenomenal knowing.
Dain is a Doctor of Chiropractic, born and raised in California, USA. He hosts a regular radio show entitled Conversations in Consciousness. He appears regularly on Dr Pat and Voice of America and has been a guest on hundreds of nationally syndicated radio shows. He also contributes regularly to magazines and blogs such as Mariashriver.com and has appeared on several TV shows including Fox News, Good Morning Shows in New Zealand, Australia and Canada and on Gaiam TV.
Dain is the author of nine books on the topics of embodiment, healing, money and relationships. His latest book, 'Being You, Changing the World' was published in June 2011 and has been translated into Swedish, German, Spanish Italian and Estonian.

"Um," Jules began, but hesitated. "So, er, you see, once - only once - someone told me to jump into the Seine, when I was visiting Paris. But I he was just joking. I mean, he scoffed at me after that when I panicked, and everything had been all right. It was just a random comment." It must have been that, right? Just a morbid joke. They wouldn't want him dead; they'd die, too, with him. Ah, but will they really be?

So, having asked questions, talking with people from various backgrounds, and posted points and counter points to see what people had to say, I feel like I have enough information to make some informed opinions, whether they are "right" or not. First of all, here are some random thoughts going into this:
- I like like playing first person shooters. I love aiming and firing to hit a target (preferably a one shot). I imagine target shooting would produce a similar sense of euphoric accomplishment, only like hyped up on steroids times 11.
- I have a weapon's collection. Almost all of them are stage combat weapons, but I have owned some pretty "hangers" in my day. Oh, and I do have a couple of prop dance swords.
- I've gone fishing, I've worked in a clinic in the summertime, and seen the damage a hook can do to a person. It ain't pretty.
- I don't like dead things. Dead bugs gross me out. I can kill bugs no problem, but after it's dead, I wanna puke. I don't need a manly man around to kill bugs for me… I need one around to clean up after. Taking this into account, I don't think hunting would be my thing. But I'm not against it as a rule.
- Guns are tools. They are tools designed for killing. Quickly, and without warning, en masse. They can be used for target practice and looking pretty, but at the end of the day, they are dangerous. There may be other uses for a gun, but I don't really wanna hang out with the guy that uses a gun to open a beer bottle.
- Guns do not make you safer. No, they do not. If I'm hitting someone and they reach for a gun, I could reach for that same gun. There are a gazillion ways to take a gun from a person. If someone else already has a gun and is shooting, and I have a gun, unless I have officer level training (and even then (and I don't care how cool you are or how much you've gone shooting at the range)) it is EXCEPTIONALLY unlikely that I or anyone else would be able to keep a cool head and actually locate a shooter and pick him off as a moving target among a bunch of other chaotic elements. What a gun does in a situation is escalate. And that holds true if you're a cowboy, a police officer, or a mass shooter.
So, all of that is my personal background, bias, and belief. After looking at what gun laws are currently in existence, here's what I've discovered:
- any idiot can legally fire a gun, without classes, under many circumstances. I have probably spent more time and money learning how to pretend to kick someone's ass in stage combat than most people do for firing a weapon. Like, since 2002. But, any idiot is also allowed to pick up a sword and start swinging the damned thing around regardless. Many gun enthusiasts will tell you to be careful and police their own, encourage classes and permits, but legally speaking, you just need to stay within an endangerment laws and ordinances.
- gun laws vary from state to state, and there are several loopholes in purchasing guns. Gun shows, internets, guy off the street, friend. Most legal gun shops have back ground checks and waiting periods, but that gun show thing. What the hell?
- did not get as much info on carrying, cause I didn't ask much. MN you need a permit to carry, with or without concealment. Varies from state to state.
All this information gathered, all of these thoughts sussed out, and here is my non-expert, unqualified stance.
Guns need better regulation. I would love to see having guns registered on a federal level. Every single gun. Titles for guns, much like cars, so if someone gets hit, we know who's responsible. I want Gun Ownership Accountability. For all gun types.
If you're going to carry, you need to pass a test. permit and such.
A part of me also wants some kind of "not a moron" test, but how do you draw that line? A mental health test would discriminate unfairly in various mental health areas, and you don't have to be mentally ill to be a moron with a gun.
I do not want to take your shooty guns. Shooting at a range actually kinda sounds like fun, and I may go do that. I don't want to take your dad's old war musket, I don't want to keep you from hunting. But I do want you to be accountable for it.

Student Teaching/Induction Experience
The Student Teaching/Induction Experience at UTC is a 16-week field-based practicum
experience and is an integral component of the teacher education program. It is during
this period that the student participates as a pre-professional in the public schools.
Essentially, this is the experience which provides the student with the arena for
converting theory to practice and demonstrating potential to perform the teaching-learning
process. Whenever possible, the candidates are placed in cohort groups of 6-12 student
teachers per site. There is no college supervisor; instead, there is a professor-in-residence
(PIR). The PIR gives the equivalent of one day per week service to the K-12 school
and may be utilized to write grants, do in-service, etc. The PIR acts as a liaison
between UTC and the school.

US sues Apple, publishers over e-book pricing
New York, April 12 - The US government Wednesday filed an antitrust lawsuit against Apple and five major book publishers, saying they conspired to limit market competition in electronic book pricing.
According to the lawsuit filed in the US District Court in Manhattan, Apple made an agreement with publishers on a so-called agency model, in which the publishers would set the retail price and give retailers no power to alter that price, Xinhua reported.
The conspired move will result in a significant hike in e-book prices, and Apple would guaranteed a 30 percent "commission" on each e-book sold, the lawsuit said.
The lawsuit alleged the conspiracy came when Apple was preparing to launch the iPad in 2010, aiming to limit Amazon's ability to discount e-books and challenge the market dominance position held by Amazon in the e-book market. (IANS)

According to Kelly Naqi of ESPN's Outside the Lines, authorities from Massachusetts who are investigating the murder case involving former Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez have reached out to the police in Gainesville, Florida in an attempt to find out if Hernandez was involved in a 2007 shooting that resulted in two men being seriously injured.
The 2007 Gainesville shooting happened on Sept. 30, when Hernandez was a 17-year-old freshman with the Gators. The two men and a friend of theirs had left a nightclub and were in their car stopped at a light blocks away when their vehicle was fired upon, according to the statements two of the men gave to police. Corey Smith, a 28-year-old at the time who was sitting in the front passenger seat, was shot in back of the head. Justin Glass, the 19-year-old driver, was shot in the arm. Randall Cason, sitting in the back seat behind Smith, was unharmed.
While several witnesses told police the shooter was a black male, Cason said there were two suspects.
Cason, then 20, told police that shooter was a "Hawaiian" or "Hispanic" male who had a large muscular build, stood about 6-foot-3 or 6-foot-4, weighed about 230 or 240 pounds and had a lot of tattoos. Cason said there was also a black male with the shooter, and Cason identified the black male as Reggie Nelson, a former Florida Gator who was a rookie with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Nelson, in an interview with the Gainesville police, said he had been at the nightclub earlier but denied he was even on the same street as the shooting.
"As they were waiting for the light to change, the Hawaiian football player and Reggie Nelson walked up to their car on the right side," according to the police report, which cited what Cason told detectives. "Then without saying a work [sic], the Hawaiian pointed a small handgun in the front right window and fired five quick shots. Cason saw Smith slump over with blood coming out of the back of the head, at which time the Hawaiian and Nelson took off running towards McDonald's."
The police report says that Nelson and Hernandez had been in The Venue nightclub along with two other Gators players, Mike and Maurkice Pouncey, twin brothers who now both play in the NFL. After the shooting, investigators interviewed Cason at Shands Hospital. Cason is described as distraught and emotional, and an officer indicated Cason said several times "it should have been him that had been shot and not Cory [sic]." Cason told investigators that a week earlier his brother had gotten into an altercation with several Florida football players.
Nelson told investigators that he was at The Venue with several friends that night. He said he later saw Aaron Hernandez and the Pouncey twins, and Hernandez told him that one of the twins had his necklace snatched by Cason. After the club closed, Nelson said, one of the twins confirmed the story to him. Nelson said he went to speak to Cason, advised that he didn't want any trouble and the two parted on good terms. He said he was not on West University Avenue, the street where the shooting took place, when Smith and Glass were shot.
Two days after the shooting, Gainesville police Lt. Keith Kameg was quoted in the Orlando Sentinel as saying neither Hernandez nor Nelson were suspects. Police have also said that they briefly interviewed Hernandez about the shooting. But, according to the police report, Hernandez declined to speak to Gainesville police nine days after the shooting. Hernandez's name is redacted from the report because he was 17 and considered a minor at the time. However, there is one reference to Hernandez in which his name is not redacted. In that section under "Aaron Hernandez," the report says detectives attempted to speak to Hernandez on Oct. 9 but that "he invoked his right to counsel."
That same day Cason, who had originally said Nelson and the Hawaiian or Hispanic male were the suspects, "rescinded his identification of Aaron Hernandez and Reggie Nelson," according to the report. While Hernandez's name was redacted in the document, it was the first time the report indicated that Cason had positively identified Hernandez as the shooter at some point.
With each passing day, it seems like Hernandez's reputation gets even worse.

Graham Turner: Late errors costly for Shrewsbury Town
Graham Turner has ordered Shrewsbury Town to cut out the costly late lapses which are hindering their progress up the League One table.
A 90th-minute equaliser from Andy Monkhouse forced Town to settle for a 2-2 draw at Hartlepool on Saturday after a Marvin Morgan brace had put the visitors on course for their first away victory of the season.
Last-gasp goals have also denied Shrewsbury a home victory over Tranmere and a point at Notts County already this season.
And Turner knows his side, who remain 16th in the League One table, must see out promising positions.
"That's five points now we have thrown away conceding late goals," he said.
"It's just (having) a collectiveness of determination and endeavour to make sure we don't concede.
"We've been too fragile against Tranmere, Notts County and again at Hartlepool.
"We had a couple of very good chances to make it 3-1 and even at the end Marvin might have got the winner.
"But you can't concede goals like we have done after taking the lead so late in the game.
"We worked hard against a very direct side and it looked like we would come away with all three points.
"It's bitterly disappointing (to concede so late) and it's something we have to work on and put right."
Turner praised the work of Morgan, who took his goal tally for the season to four with a strike in each half.
And the Town boss believes his side made the trip to the north-east at a testing time with Hartlepool on the wrong end of a heavy defeat in midweek.
"It wasn't the best of times to go there when they have just lost 5-0 at Preston," he added.
"You read the programme notes and the local paper and there is a collective determination from them and a pride issue to bounce back from that defeat.
"We thought they might start quick and work tremendously hard.
"They caused us one or two problems but we handled most things."
Town reserves play their second Central League game of the season tomorrow when they entertain Hull at the Greenhous Meadow at 2pm.
