One no-bake icebox fruitcake recipe combines mixed fruit, nuts, graham crackers, marshmallows and evaporated milk. The recipe recommends refrigerating the fruitcake for at least three weeks.
The fruit portion of this recipe calls for one pound of golden raisins, one pound of dark raisins, one pound of mixed fruit and an optional pound of candied cherries. Also add one pound of chopped walnuts, one pound of chopped pecans and one pound of finely crumbled graham crackers.
Heat a large can of evaporated milk in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Melt one pound of marshmallows in the milk, stir in the other ingredients and press into two one-pound loaf pans lined with plastic wrap.

Well I had a super birthday yesterday, I woke up and opened my presents.
Chillaxed and watched cartoons because I'm cool.
Put my cards up.
And then had some friends round for take out pizza. You may remember the boyfriend's cake challenge I issued him last year of a cherry bakewell castle complete with moat and drawbridge. This year I asked for a treasure chest and I think he did rather well!

Feds charge New Jersey man for offering $5G to 'cannibal cop' to abduct woman
The feds charged a New Jersey man today with offering $5,000 to NYPD "cannibal cop" Gilberto Valle to kidnap and deliver a woman so he could rape and kill her.
Michael Vanhise, 22, of Trenton, NJ, admitted sending emails in which he and Valle discussed the abduction and Vanhise tried to knock down the price after Valle sent him a photo of the intended victim, court papers allege.
A Manhattan federal court complaint includes the following exchange between the two, which allegedly took place on Feb. 28.
Vanhise: "I definitely want her and how much again, I'm sorry to ask but I don't remember."
Valle: "$5,000 and she is all yours."
Vanhise: "Could we do 4?"
Valle: "I am putting my neck on the line here. If something goes wrong some somehow, I am in deep s--t. $5,000 and you need to make sure that she is not found. She will definitely make the news."
Vanhise also admitted sending other emails to two other, unidentified people, "about kidnapping, raping and murdering women and children," according to the complaint.

NWSB Insider and Vancouver Canucks blogger C-Mac tells Canucks nation to put down there emergency response kits and relax. The team has slumped yes, but playing just .500 hockey for the remaining games would most likely still guarantee the second seed in the Western Conference.

Hence, it would be an unpardonable legerity to close our eyes to the dangers lurking beneath an apparent passivity.

The first part will be a short paragraph in Latin, where you will have to answer questions. The second part will see if you can identify a description, written in Latin, of a character we have read about in our textbook. The third part will require you to identify whether a verb form is Present, Imperfect, of Perfect tense. Finally, part four will have you translate the underlined word.
TEST: Stage 6 2/19
Make sure you are looking over your work from Stage 6, reviewing the vocabulary and the difference between the Imperfect and Perfect tenses of verbs. Remember, if there is a -ba "trapped" within the verb, it is of the Imperfect tense and should be translated as "was/were -ing".
If there is a VSUX in the verb, then you need to recognize it is of the Perfect tense and should be translated as "-ed" into English.
Start studying now!

Qualup went even further with an open-source machine capable of extruding materials up to 500°C. It is also equipped with a chamber heated to 90°C.
It is thus able to print technical subjects such as PEEK or ULTEM. Not to mention more conventional consumables like ABS, PET, PLA, TPU ...
More than 25 companies were invited to discover the exceptional performance of the 3D printer: ABSolute 2.
We have had the pleasure of receiving representatives from companies like Staubli, Fournier SA, Rossignol, NTN SNR, Galderma, Polytech Annecy...
We started the evening with the presentation of our company with the speech of Ludeek founder, Mickael Bovagnet. Then it was the turn of me to explain why we decided to design this new machine, and what it brings more compared to competing products.
Then Mr Aznar, Maped R&D explain :
"We are equipped with proprietary 3D printers that we have been using for many years, but their use was expensive in the long run. By seeing the open source 3D printer market grow, we discovered a possible solution. Not having all the knowledge internally, we relied on the experience of a French manufacturer Qualup.
So ABSolute was born and we have, after a lot of work, got a 3D printer allowing the printing of ABS with an excellent structural hold, and a reasonable cost of use. Today we therefore have proprietary systems that cohabit with the ABSolute 2, each with its well-defined uses."

Jaipur: Bollywood Actress and BJP MP Hema Malini's driver was today detained and an FIR filed against him for rash driving and causing death by negligence in connection with last night's accident in which a four-year-old girl was killed and five others including the actress were injured.
Ramesh Chand, who was driving Hema's Mercedes that collided with another car, has been detained for interrogation at Kotwali Thana, SHO Dilip Singh told PTI.
Hanuman Mahajan, who lost his daughter in the accident in Dausa, 60 km from here, and was among the four injured, filed an FIR with the Kotwali police station there against Ramesh.
FIR was lodged against the driver, who hails from Vrindavan, under various sections of IPC including 279 (rash driving) and 304 (A) (causing death by negligence) in the wee hours, SHO said.
He said both the vehicles were seized and a probe was on.
"It is to be ascertained how the accident occurred and who was at fault," he said, adding there were three persons in Mercedes-- BJP MP from Mathura Hema Malini, her PA and driver, while five persons including two children, two women and the complainant Hanuman Mahajan were in the other car.
Sonam, four-year-old daughter of Hanuman, succumbed to injuries on way to hospital in Dausa, while four others Hanuman, his wife Shikha (35), Somil (5), and Seema (40), were shifted to Jaipur's SMS hospital, the SHO said.
The 66-year-old actress was undergoing treatment at Fortis hospital here.
"She suffered a cut near an eyebrow, some problem in nasal bone, injury on forehead and had body ache," Rajasthan Minister Rajpal Singh Shekhawat, who visited her late last night, told reporters.
Shekhawat said she went through CT scan and other tests as a matter of precaution. Plastic surgeons were examining her face and wounds.
A number of other specialists including Anoop Jhurani, bone replacement expert, also attended to the actress, a senior doctor said.
Hema was proceeding from Mathura via Bharatpur to Jaipur when the mishap occurred on Agra-Jaipur National Highway-11 near Dausa in Rajasthan around 9 PM yesterday. The other car was going from Jaipur to Lalsot.
Locals staged a protest after the accident and tried to block the highway, but they were dispersed by police, the SHO said.

Out of the closet
My Dear Daddy,
If you are reading this, I have to tell you. I get the habit of forming strong opinions from you. The temper too. And the political incorrectness. Please don't kill me for some of the things you will read here, it is the living proof of our hereditary I-am-angry-and-I-am-going-to-tell-you-why trait that your grandchildren will grow up to read. We're famous, Dad! ;) My disclaimer to you is always going to read "I can explain everything! I learned all of it from you :D" AND I LOVE YOU!
Lots and lots of love,
P.S.# 1 If I were a Christian, even my epitaph would have read "I can explain everything".
P.S.# 2 The hills are calling, I will catch you on the other side of Yercaud. I am going this weekend. FINALLY!

Top Two Stories on WTA Website Feature Photos by Chris Smith
Hi Gang! I was just informed that the TOP TWO stories at www.wtatennis.com, the Official Website of the Women's Tennis Association, feature photos I shot at the Family Circle Cup! I'm STOKED!!!
The top story right now is on Sabine Lisicki…former Champion of the tournament…one of my personal favorite players…and a winner in three sets today. The second story is about the Player Party at NV Lounge, a private VIP event for all the players, which I photographed on Sunday. Check it out when you get a chance! 🙂

Gary Cullen is a freelance photographer. Having recently retired after thirty-four years as a Registered Nurse in the local community, Gary started focusing on his passion for photography and his intuition of what will look good thru a lens.
Over the years, he has captured the decay of society, and the secrets that nature has left on her own worldly canvas, specifically on Mare Island. Nature's mix of neglect, anonymity, oxidation, often take on a beauty of its own. "The locations I shoot, often go unnoticed by many, but are the markings of the local history". His technique is simply to use what comes naturally with the lights and shadows provided. Gary also spent five years capturing the musical scene at the Empress Theatre in Vallejo where he worked as a volunteer and house photographer. One of the things Gary has discovered is that, while a location can often be revisited, the particulars of a specific shot (timing, lighting, and mood) are unique and cannot always be duplicated.

I was supposed to volunteer in my son's kindergarten class today but it seemed irresponsible to go when I'm all germed up and get everyone sick.

In addition to the electric company's emergency number, people should also have the phone numbers for their water companies, alarm companies, gas companies and roadside assistance providers. Important medical phone numbers to have on hand are those of the closest emergency room, the dentist, the doctor and any applicable health insurance providers.
Parents should keep a list of their children's schools' and caretakers' phone numbers in case of an emergency. They should also post a list of their emergency contact numbers, including cell phone and work numbers, near the phone for their children to use. Pet owners should keep a list of their pets' veterinarians' phone numbers, as well as the number for the nearest 24-hour emergency animal hospital.
People should make a list of local friends and family who could help in an emergency or who need notification in case of an emergency. Cell phone owners should program one primary emergency contact person under the acronym ICE, which stands for "in case of emergency." That way, an emergency responder knows who to call if the cell phone owner cannot speak for himself.
Smartphone users should consider programming additional emergency information, such as addresses, into their phones. They can also add their health insurance policy number in the notes field of their contact information. Smartphone users can program allergy and essential medical information into the notes field of each contact for use in an emergency.

Karcher, who heads Carl Karcher Enterprises, owner of Carl's Jr. restaurants, claims that Morgan Stanley and two brokers lost more than $500,000 in the past three years while managing a trust fund set up for himself and his wife. Monroe R. Sonnenborn, vice president and litigation attorney for Morgan Stanley, called the complaint "utterly without merit." The suit seeks $10.5 million in damages.

EPA begins new phase of St. Clair Shores drain cleanup
Release Date: 03/11/2010
Contact Information: (EPA) Mick Hans, 312-353-5050, email@example.com (MDNRE) Robert McCann, 517-373-7917, email@example.com (City of SCS) Mary Jane D'Herde, 586-447-3414, email@example.com
No. 10-OPA027
(CHICAGO – March 11, 2010) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 5 has begun a short-term cleanup at the St. Clair Shores Drain site in St. Clair Shores, Mich., northeast of Detroit. The site was also recently proposed to the Superfund National Priorities List. Residents and businesses near the intersection of Bon Brae Street and Harper Avenue may see construction equipment and EPA contractors in required protective gear through May.
The project area includes the 10-Mile Drain portion of the St. Clair Shores storm sewer drainage system, as well as portions of the Lange Street and Revere Street canals that the system drains into—both of which drain into Lake St. Clair. This system drains storm water from a one-half square mile area. The actual drain is an enclosed concrete sewer about 10 feet below street level.
The cleanup will be managed by EPA's Grosse Ile, Mich., field office. The effort will include:
• Removal and disposal of PCB-contaminated sediment that has collected in the 10-Mile Drain since 2006.
• Removal and disposal of contaminated sediment from the adjacent sewer outfall that leads into the Lange and Revere canals.
• Temporary installation of up to 25 weirs. The weirs are small metal plates in the sewer line which block sediments while allowing water to flow over them. EPA hopes to be able to follow the path from contaminated sediment that collect at the weirs back to the source of the PCBs. Once the project is complete, the weirs will be removed and disposed of properly.
On March 3, the site was proposed for inclusion on the Superfund list. Details on the public comment period that ends May 3 are at https://www.epa.gov/superfund/sites/npl/current.htm. If the site is added to the NPL, EPA will be eligible for the technical and financial resources to fully characterize the extent of the contamination in the sewer system area and develop a comprehensive cleanup plan in consultation with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment and local authorities.
PCB contamination in the storm sewer area first came to EPA's attention in 2002. From 2002 to 2004, the agency performed a cleanup of contamination in both canals. The city and Macomb County also performed cleanups of the drain and canals. Follow-up sampling of the St. Clair Shores sewer system and the canals showed high levels of PCBs were still present. In 2006, EPA installed a synthetic liner designed to prevent PCB seepage around the cement drain pipe. PCB-contaminated soil was also removed from several yards or public easements along the drainage system. Despite these efforts, the source of the PCBs has not been determined and additional contamination is still entering the drainage system.
Once EPA gains a more complete picture of the contamination and the NPL proposal process wraps up, a public meeting will be scheduled. Residents with questions about the site may contact EPA community involvement coordinator Bob Paulson at 800-621-8431, Ext. 60272, or firstname.lastname@example.com.
PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) are a group of toxic chemicals that were widely used as coolants, insulators and lubricants. PCBs are of concern because they concentrate in the food chain resulting in health hazards to people, fish and wildlife. Congress banned the manufacture of PCBs in 1976 and those still in use are strictly regulated.

Noah actually flushed a pair of my panties once. I had to call a group of (Male) plumbers who were trying to cover the phone so I wouldn't hear them laughing and snickering, and tell them exactly what was stuck in my toilet. It was sooo embarrassing! In the end, I made Gentry just take the toilet up and fish them out b/c I couldn't handle the thought of some guy I didn't know touching my undies!

what does the creature find in his pocket? how does it make him feel
Rifling through the pockets of his own clothes, stolen long ago from Victor's apartment, he finds some papers from Victor's journal. With his newfound ability to read, he soon understands the horrific manner of his own creation and the disgust with which his creator regarded him. Dismayed by these discoveries, the monster wishes to reveal himself to the cottagers in the hope that they will see past his hideous exterior.

Malar opposite Mahesh Babu?Mar 24, 2016 03:55 AM
Is Sai Pallavi, who played Malar in Malayalam blockbuster movie 'Premam', acting opposite Mahesh Babu ? Yes, say the sources.
Sai Pallavi became an actress to reckon with after her debut film 'Premam' turned out to be one of the biggest hits in the history of Malayalam cinema. The actress was one of the reasons behind the huge success of the movie and she is now one of the most sought after heroines in South. She is now acting opposite Dulquar Salman in a Malayalam film titled 'Kali' and she is also being considered for Mani Ratnam's next.
Now if the reports are to believed, she is said to have been finalized as one of the heroines in Mahesh Babu - A.R.Murugadoss movie. Mahesh will romance three actresses in this movie and Sai Pallavi will reportedly play one of the roles. Parineeti Chopra and Keerthi Suresh are being considered for the other two roles. Sai Pallavi became so famous that people started calling her Malar instead of her original name.
This film will go on floors once Mahesh Babu wraps up 'Brahmotsavam'. More details are awaited.

This is an unusual post for me. It is Personal
If you have taken the time to check the "about us page" you will understand this post.
This is Joseph's last year in school he will turn 21 in August of next year. I will have to admit that public school has been a roller coaster ride scary at most turns and flying by. High school was a difficult transition for me as a mother, because the kids are bigger and a one class fits all philosophy has never been a comfort. But God heard my prayers ..I met Joe's current teacher at special Olympics about 5 years ago. By the way this is the second year this teacher has been named teacher of the year! An here is why. She approached me ,she had heard that I was hesitant, and this is what she said
"God has put in my heart to teach these kids please give me Joe" .
I was floored and I am still emotional when I hear her words in my heart. What a true blessing she and her aides are. All of them are extraordinary people. I was trying to come up with a last Christmas teacher ,School Nurse gift, and here is what I decided to do.
Each teacher except Coach D. will get a scarf with a reminder that when they put it on Joe will be giving them a warm hug.
Coach D. Received handkerchiefs . Now Coach is a mess, he and Joe banter all day. Joe gets flabbergasted and will exclaim "Oh Jesus" Coach will ask were? he does not see him. Joe's reply as printed on the edge of Coach's Hankies.."He is in my Heart man!"
So lets all take a lesson from Joe...
Lets Keep Him in our hearts not only this season but all year. And take the time to tell those people that go above and beyond...Thank you and I appreciate you every day!
Warm Hugs

A boy with a tragic past comes of age in Las Vegas.
"Asians can't figure me out, and it drives them nuts. I'm like Asian, but stretched tall. Long body, small features. Curly dark hair. Like one of those long-necked aliens with a wig." Self-esteem is not Walter Stahl's long suit, but at 17, he hasn't had much to make him feel good about himself. His mother, Emily, took off when he was 5 in the wake of a tragedy that left his father, already damaged by loss, ruined beyond repair. Imagining that Emily has fled to Las Vegas, father and son follow her there—but the years pass without any sign. These days, Walter is scanning for Vietnamese-looking women among the visitors who tour the Viva Las Vegas! museum, where he's a guide. In parallel with his tale is woven an earlier narrative, one that tracks Emily from the time she backed out of the driveway in her blue Volvo and hit the road. Parts of the story are told in graphic novel form, which works quite well, and there are also reproductions of pages from Walter's sketchbook. His favorite subjects are two human statues at the Venice Venice hotel, Apollo and Diana, who turn out to be a brother and sister from Greece. "I've spent hours studying his body....the deep cleft of his hairless chest, the line that begins at his hip and swoops down to touch upon his fig leaf and curve back up to the other hip, that shadow that runs along the side of his thigh from his knee to the perfect roundness of his ass...." Clearly, Walter's on the verge of learning something new about himself. Sie's debut novel is a bit weighed down by all the darkness he's loaded in: there are too many deaths and betrayals, too many back stories and digressions, too many Greek myths; also, it's disappointing when a major plotline turns out to be a fantasy.
Tries too hard to do too much but is likable anyway.

I have become addicted to the brand Kiko Milano (funny because my boyfriend's name is Kiko, so most of my makeup has his name). I recently bought blush in stick, invisible powder for the finishing touch. Plus I love they have a great range of lipstick and nail polish colors. Yesterday I bought primer, color corrector for redness and two matte lipsticks one in wine and the other in deep red, all for 24euros :) As you can see I'm obsessed with makeup but I'm just unable to use eye shadow, I don't know how to apply it, which one would suit me, etc. Love how this one looks on you :)

Worldwide automotive night vision system suppliers are mostly Autoliv, Delphi, Bosch, Valeo and Visteon. Just as in the past, this year's AUTOMOTIVE HUNGARY once again featured the classic competition of engineering students, Techtogether Automotive Hungary. The 124 was an innovative car with an original style, a new concept of space, sophisticated engineering and state-of-the-art safety. STEERING AND SUSPENSION: Verify the shock absorbers, struts and all the elements of the chassis parts.
A skilled mechanic must normally be able to get the repair completed in the quantity of alloted time with no overcharging the buyer for labor. I would be doing the masters in Mech Engineering if I have been you, whilst gaining some practical expertise in a repair business to get a deal with on tool and equipment use. Automotive sector engineers and product developers are pushing the boundaries of technologies for much better car efficiency, performance, safety and comfort. If you have any queries concerning TU-Automotive Detroit 2017 please do get in touch.
As with many other merchandise on the market, you'll discover that a single or two specific brands in hand-held DMMs have the best reputation in terms of good quality and accuracy, specially within the field of automotive repair.

For 14 years the TU-Automotive Europe Conference & Exhibition has been the central meeting spot for those at the forefront of automotive technical innovation and company strategy. As an automotive specialist, your job is to support your client by means of a approach that for several shoppers, might not be simple and can even be scary at occasions.

text: Hi all, Posting this for a friend. Their family just purchased an iPad2 and the app Proloquo2go (communication software for those with difficulties). Does anyone have any suggestions for a very secure case? Function highly over fashion in this case is fine. They have an idea to use a rolling table for him and mount the iPad on a GPS-like mount so that it will be held up at eye level. A case would help if he were to accidentally knock it off the mount, or at night when it needs to be charged. Tried a few searches and wasn't able to find much information about this purpose. Thanks! Edit: Something like the Element Vapor or E13ctron type cases for iPhone would be great here, but I can't seem to find an iPad version.

The Benue State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been restrained by a Benue High Court from presenting the name of one Emmanuel Ochekwu to the Benue State Independent Electoral Commission (BSIEC) as the party's candidate for Ikobi ward in Apa Local Government Area for the November 24 council polls in the state.
Delivering ruling in a suit filed against both the PDP and BSIEC, Justice M. A Abounu also granted the applicant, Johnson Otache Silas an injunction to challenge the substitution of his name with that of Ochekwu despite the fact that he won the PDP primaries on August 14, 2012 and was duly declared as the councillorship candidate for Ikobi ward.
According to the suit filed by Barrister Samuel Adama on behalf of Otache, the applicant had defeated Ochekwu and other aspirants during the August 14 primaries conducted by party officials from the state headquarters and supervised by BSIEC.
It added that Ochekwu dumped the PDP and tried to get the ticket of about two other political parties after he lost the PDP ticket to Otache all to no avail.
Otache, until a couple of weeks later, was recognised by the party as its candidate in Ikobi ward.Granting the injunction, Justice Abounu said it is within the fundamental human rights of Otache to challenge his alleged disqualification by his party given that he contested and won the primary election held to nominate the PDP flag-bearer for the ward.

After my wife saw a similar bookcase in a magazine I was "commissioned" to build one for our bonus room. Lucky for me I found a metal shop around the corner from my house that has large hardwood pallets. After a quick chat with the foreman he gave me access to all I would want. Slats were ripped to approximately 2 1/4" and planned down to 3/8". Not a real challenging project, just a bunch of creates screwed together. Wife was happy with the end result and getting the lumber for free made me happy, so we will call it a win.

Goaltending: Last year, the Czech's went into the World Juniors with one of the best duo's in the tournament. Well, that didn't exactly pan out whatsoever, with the team struggling to rely on either Vitek Vanecek or Daniel Vladar. This year, they both come in with more experience and should be more stable this time around. Vanecek was drafted 39th overall in the 2014 NHL Draft by the Washington Capitals. He played for the Czech under-18 team for 22 games during the 2013-2014 season, posting a 2.52 goals-against average and a .911 save percentage. An experienced international goalie who looked fairly solid for the Czech U19 last year, Vanecek is getting a good opportunity to learn from former AHL All-Star goalie Mark Dekanich with the South Carolina Stingrays this year, the ECHL affiliate of the Washington Capitals. Behind him will Daniel Vladar, one of the top goaltenders from the 2015 NHL Draft. means he will be ready to steal the spotlight in 2016 or 2017. The kid is 6'5″, and while it's natural to think that all he needs to do is just sit and cover the net, he has the rare ability to be flashy, yet safe with his play. Like Vanecek, Vladar also made the jump to the play hockey in the United States, splitting time between the pipes with John Lethemon with the USHL's Chicago Steel. Speaking of stealing, he could end up doing just that with the starting role if Vanecek can't get the job done in Finland this year.
Defensemen: There's no way you can talk about a strong Czech team without mentioning Jakub Zboril, yet they still managed to cut him last year anyways. It was evident from the start that they missed him on the point, struggling defensively every single shift without him. He did have a solid Summer Showcase tournament in Canada this past summer, and there's no question the Boston Bruins first rounder will be a leader on a team without a great group of stars like Canada or the United States. Dominik Masin will also be a big contributor on the back end for the Czech's, having participated internationally at the U16/17/18/19/20 levels already in his young career. A returning defenseman from last year's dismal World Junior effort, the 19-year-old Tampa Bay Lightning prospect is expected to be a big minute cruncher while bringing good size and speed to a team that could need to rely on their top pairing defensemen through much of every game. Comprised of many 19-year-old defenders, Jan Scotka and Filip Pyrochta will likely fill out the top four, with both having played for the Czech U20 at some point over the past year. Scotka, who has represented the Czech Republic at various levels since 2012, is a reliable shutdown defenseman that should hold his own while Victoriaville Tigres blue liner Pyrochta will add a good two-way presence to the second top pairing. Plzeň defender David Sklenicka should help inject some fire into close situations if needed as well.
Forwards: With a lot of current CHLers on the Czech roster, there could be some high scoring forwards if you like to believe that major junior hockey in Canada is the place to be. New Jersey Devils prospect Pavel Zacha is the obvious number one star that the team will put a lot of pressure on to succeed. The first overall pick by the Sarnia Sting at the 2014 import draft, Zacha finished his OHL rookie season last year with 34 points 37 games after missing time throughout the season. A star at the most recent Under-18 World Championships, Zacha only had two points at last year's World Junior tournament but with the two-way star expected to play a bigger role this year, his production should be much higher. Charlottetown Islanders playmaker Filip Chlapík could be the person that helps create a lot of Zacha's offense, especially after a strong Ivan Hlinka Memorial Cup tournament a few months back. David Kase has already played with Zacha previously in international play, so the Philadelphia Flyers prospect could have a chance to put up some solid production during the World Juniors, something he typically does when he puts on the Czech jersey. Buffalo Sabres prospect Václav Karabáček could also see time on the first line, having played with Zacha when the pair tore up the World Under-18's back in 2014. Michael Špaček is having a strong rookie season with the WHL's Red Deer Rebels, playing at over a point-per-game average by the time he was announced to the preliminary tournament roster in early December. Tomáš Šoustal, Šimon Stránský and Lukáš Vopelka should also help add some extra strength to a solid top nine that shouldn't have many issues finding the back of the net.
Projection: This has been a big question for many years, but after having a lot of promise a year ago, is this the year that the Czech's finally break through and compete for a medal again? It's been ten tournaments since their last World Junior medal, and with some solid depth at every position, they may actually be able to compete again this year. Unfortunately, don't expect them to finish better than fifth or sixth, but hopefully it won't be as much of a trainwreck as a year ago.

PAOK midfielder Ergys Kace did not confirm anything regarding his future as Newcastle are believed to have entered the race to sign him.
The Albanian midfielder has attracted a lot of interest from abroad and he seems to be weighing up his options as he was coy when asked about his contract renewal and his future at the Greek club.
"We have not talked about my contract extension. At the time being I'm a PAOK player but I don't know what happens next. We'll see. Only God knows," Kace underlined.

Abstract: The optimal control algorithms developed for applications to nonlinear structures are referred to as the instantaneous optimal control algorithms, including the instantaneous optimal open-loop control algorithms, instantaneous optimal closed-loop control algorithms and instantaneous optimal closed-open-loop control algorithms. These optimal algorithms are computationally efficient and suitable for on-line implementation of active control systems to realistic nonlinear structures. Numerical examples are worked out to demonstrate the applications of these optimal control algorithms to nonlinear structures. In particular, control of structures undergoing inelastic deformations under strong earthquake excitations are illustrated. The advantage of using combined passive/active control systems is also demonstrated.

The language of Old Chinese, which roughly corresponds to the period of 600 BCE- 0 CE became the standard grammar and script for Literary Chinese. The great classical works of ancient China including the Analects of Confucius 論語 and Sun Tzu's Art of War 兵法 were written using this language. As the spoken language changed, Old Chinese served as a kind of standard from which a strictly written form of Chinese organically evolved, thus preserving in much detail the grammar of Old Chinese. Literary Chinese went on to serve as the official written language outside of China in places such as Korea, Vietnam and Japan.
Before delving into grammar of the language itself, we first need to examine the written script which, in itself, conveys meaning in its own right.
The origins of Chinese characters can be found in pictographs written on various materials dating back into pre-history. These symbols usually depicted the message they conveyed, or tried to use combinations of symbols to convey more abstract ideas. These symbols were said to have been systematized by the Yellow Emperor 黃帝 in ancient times. The characters were later catalogued and their calligraphy forms fixed by the grand recorder Chou in the year 800 B.C.
Around this time characters were still being drawn with a pen-like instrument, but over time it was replaced with the brush, which came to make Chinese characters what we know them as today.
There a six categories of characters. The first character class is called imitative drafts, which are rough sketches representing the object.
山 mountain
水 water
人 person
三 three
The second category is indicative symbols. They are figures that suggest the meaning. These symbols often suggest an idea of motion.
ノ action of the authority which exerts itself up and down
The third category is logical aggregates which are made up of two or more characters made simple, coming together as one. Their signification results from the meanings of the various parts.
占 fortune telling;ト>divination + 口>mouth; to consult fortune tellers.
The fourth category is phonetic complexes, which are made up of two or more simple characters. One character conveys meaning, while the other one holds no meaning but conveys the pronunciation. One should note that the pronunciation element is no longer absolute in the modern day as the phonology of Chinese morphemes has changed considerably.
楚 a woody land; 林>forest + 疋 phonetic 'chu'1
The fifth category is the acceptation of the character in a meaning more extended, derived, generalized, metaphorical, analogous, adapted, figurative, etc.
网 a fishing net. By extension it can refer to a network, cobweb, reticulate design; to catch with a net, to catch in general, to gather, etc. All these meanings are an extension from a concrete object.
The sixth and final category refers to 'mistake characters' which are characters with false borrowings. Sometimes these came to exist because of scribal errors, or more commonly on account of assigning an existing character to an idea, place or person that at the time held no character.
The meanings of many characters over time have shifted and often differ greatly from their original meanings. Moreover, other languages which adopted Chinese characters came to assign different meanings to characters. An example would be the character 使 which in the Confucian Analects means, 'to make someone do [something]'/ causative. In modern day Japanese, the character is a verb which means 'to use'.
It should also be noted that readers of languages that use Chinese characters do not read nor come to directly understand the meaning of characters through their archaic semantic elements. While these semantics elements help as memory aid they are by no means absolute in conveying meaning. Each character represents a word. These characters are graphic representations of ideas which are further represented by a vocalized utterance associated with each particular symbol. In some ways, they are not that different from something like roman script, only that they are more immediately derived from their pictographic roots.
Literary Chinese is essentially a terse monosyllabic language following the general Subject-Verb-Object pattern. One character refers to one syllable, which refers to one word, though there are a few exceptions.
人 person/populace/man/human
去 to depart/leave/go
芙蓉 lotus (the individual characters mean nothing on their own)
Literary Chinese uses two-word compounds. These compound words work as one single noun within the syntax of a sentence. It makes use of a process called reduplication. This is a process where repeating a word creates a meaning extended significantly beyond the meaning of the original word.
人 person 人人 all people
年 year 年年 year after year
Literary Chinese uses polar binomes where a pair of words (synonyms or opposites) came together to refer to a whole set of things as a single compound noun.
少長 young + old > people of all ages
動静 move + be still > all [one's] activities
草木 grasses + trees > all vegetation
Pluralization of words is accomplished with affixation. These are suffixed or prefixed onto nouns, or any other word class that behaves as a noun within the syntax of a sentence.
Literary Chinese, like most languages, uses the topic-comment sentence. The topic is what you want to talk about, and the comment is what you want to say about it. Literary Chinese has two types of comments and two corresponding types of sentences: the nominal and the verbal. These are distinguished in that a nominal sentence has a noun phrase as its comment and a verbal sentence has a verb phrase as its comment.
The nominal sentence is essentially a statement of identity. For example:
A, B 也 A is a type of B.
宋、小國也 Song is a small state. [Song, small state it is]
無父無君、是禽獸也 With no father and no ruler: this is a wild animal. [no father no ruler, this wild animal it is]
The verbal comment is a nominalized verb following the pattern verb + 也. Verbs serving as topics are nominalized, as all topics are nouns. When verbs serve as nominal comments, they refer to a general category of action that defines the identity of the topic. Modern English does not have this kind of structure. Observe the following sentence:
王之不王、不爲也 The King's not ruling (correctly) is a matter of not trying. [King's (王之) not ruling, not try it is.]
Note that the character 王 (king) functions as a verb by virtue of the negation particle 不. All nouns following 不 become verbs, though there are at times exceptions. In this sense the word 'king' becomes a verb meaning 'kingly way/actions of a king', and from the context of the sentence one can gather it means 'not being kingly'. The later half is where we find the copula 也following the verb: to try 爲, which is negated by 不.
One should also observe that quite frequently in Literary Chinese the tense is usually not explicitly mentioned. The reader is assumed to gather from the context of the sentences when in time the action took place.
However, in Literary Chinese, as in any language, one must create sequences of actions if one wants to tell a story or make an argument, and for this reason Literary Chinese uses coordinate verbs to mark the sequence of events. The first verb in a sentence is typically the antecedent condition. It influences how the second action occurs or if it occurs hypothetically or not at all. Observe:
宋 人 有 耕 者、 田 中 有 株、兔 走 觸 株 折 頸 而 死
Song Person Exits Plow AN2 Field Inside Exists Stump, Rabbit Run Strike Stump Broke Neck and/then Die
Here 有 is a transitive verb of 'existential predication': it says that its direct object exists. When有 has a topic it generally indicates a general, though not precisely specific, time. "There exists in the people of Song one who plows" and "Within the field there is a stump." Note that the direct object of all normal transitive verbs comes after the verb.
The later half of the sentence reads, "The rabbit ran, struck the stump, broke its neck [and as a result而] died." The而 explicitly indicates coordination between two verbs:
A而B = A and [as a result] B.
A question arises as to how a native speaker of Old Chinese would have perceived the sentence. Is the narration in the present? The rabbit strikes the stump and dies. Or is it in the past? The rabbit struck the stump and died. It is not explicit which tense is being used. An English speaker might expect it to be in the past tense. Though there is the possibility that the notion of an exact tense did not exist in the narrative speech in Old Chinese.
Another interesting semantic feature of Literary Chinese is its use of the particle 所. It is a particle that points to the object, without explicitly naming it. It is the label that allows one to refer to a set of objects selected simply for their role as objects of verbs. Observe:
李 子 往 市
Li Master Go Market
Master Li went to the market.
李 子 所 往 市 也
Li Master >object< Go Market It is
Where master Li went was the market.
In the first sentence we do not know where the emphasis is placed. In the second sentence the Verb-Object has been split, and the verb has been shifted into being the topic. Naturally, the comment about the topic follows: the market. Observe the following interrogative sentence:
李 子 所 往 何 也
Li Master >object< Go What/Where? It is
Where is it that Master Li went?
This article has hardly touched the surface of Literary Chinese, but hopefully it has provided the reader with an idea of how fascinating both the grammar and script is. Indeed, the history of the language runs from ancient China until even the modern day. It holds many qualities which should be of interest to any person interested in linguistics.

United States wing Julian Green will miss the team's upcoming games against Ecuador and Honduras because of a rib injury. Green was sent back to Germany to rehab with his club team, Hamburg.
United States midfielder Julian Green will miss the team's upcoming friendlies against Ecuador and Honduras because of a rib injury, head coach Jurgen Klinsmann announced Thursday.
Green was sent back to Germany to rehab with Hamburg, his club team. He injured his ribs last month and returned to practice but hasn't played since Sept. 20.
The 19-year-old Green, who decided to play for the U.S. instead of Germany prior to this year's World Cup, became the youngest player to score a goal in the World Cup since Lionel Messi in 2006 when he scored against Belgium in the first round of the knockout stage. He was loaned to Hamburg by Bayern Munich in September.
• STRAUS: Minnesota groups mobilize for MLS
Friday's match against Ecuador will be U.S. star Landon Donovan's final game with the national team. Donovan's 57 international goals and 58 assists are the most in U.S. history. Klinsmann named Donovan captain for the game, and he is expected to play 30 minutes.
The U.S. hosts Ecuador on Friday at 7 p.m. in Hartford, Conn., and plays Honduras in Boca Raton, Fla., on Tuesday.

Ty Montgomery thrives in kick and punt returns on his intelligent decisions and over-achieving attitude. Can the wide receiver pace Stanford past Notre Dame on Saturday?
Pete Alamar and Devon Cajuste have seen so many impressive kick returns from Ty Montgomery that it's tough to pick a favorite. Alamar leans toward one from last year's 31-28 win over Washington (NOT the one that went 99 yards for a touchdown), and Cajuste isn't sure. Montgomery, however, has a quick answer to the question. It happened when he was 7.
At that age, kick returns become touchdowns when fast kids get to the sideline, turn the corner and outrun everyone. Montgomery, who grew up in Dallas, got good at this early. His favorite return isn't memorable because of the opponent or the outcome but because of who ran with him.
"I'll never forget this," Montgomery says, "I catch the ball, I break outside, and my uncle, who was at the game and was faster than me at the time, ran with me all the way to the end zone. Afterward, I told him: 'I can't wait to be faster than you.'"
It didn't take long. Now one of the best kick returners in the country (he averages just under 30 yards per return, ninth-best in the nation), Montgomery laughs and says there's no way Normal Henderson could currently keep pace.
It's a problem opposing coverage teams can relate to. And this weekend in South Bend, where No. 14 Stanford (3-1) takes on No. 9 Notre Dame (4-0), it's something the Fighting Irish are sure to be watching closely.
Alamar, Stanford's special teams coach, loves to gush about his star pupil.
"Ty takes his speed and his toughness and his vision, which is his understanding of the flow and of the coverage team and the leverage of his blockers," Alamar says. "He internalizes it in a split second and uses it to his advantage."
At the most basic level, Alamar says, returns are a game of angles. And Montgomery is good at math.
"I guess (powering through gaps), some of it does come from playing running back growing up," Montgomery says. "But I also remember, I had this old coach who taught me, 'You don't always need a juke move, the kind that makes the crowd go wild.' If I can get a guy trying to make an arm tackle to miss, that's just as good."
Montgomery's calling card might be as a stellar kick returner -- he's also returning punts this season and has already taken one back for a touchdown -- but Alamar says that by now most teams know to not underestimate Montgomery as a receiver, too. Cajuste, his running mate, agrees.
"I feel like he set himself up as a freshman as a receiver first," Cajuste says, and it's hard to argue with the numbers: He caught 24 passes for 350 yards in 2011, highlighted by seven catches for 120 yards and one touchdown in a 41-38 loss to Oklahoma State in the Fiesta Bowl. "He struggled a bit his sophomore year because of injuries and yeah, maybe he established himself last season as a kick returner, but before all that, he was the ultimate receiver. He still is."
• RICKMAN: Where are Stanford, Notre Dame in Power Rankings?
Stanford will certainly need Montgomery's receiving help in the red zone Saturday. Averaging a team-leading 68.8 receiving yards per game, Montgomery acknowledges that the Cardinal's offense has been woefully inefficient at times this season.
Stanford has scored a touchdown in the red zone on just eight of 19 opportunities (42 percent) so far in 2014. The low point came in a conference-opening 13-10 loss to rival USC when the Cardinal scored just twice in five red zone trips. Stanford's 413 yards of offense got overshadowed by its inability to convert those yards into points. Better red zone production is a matter of execution, Montgomery says, and making sure to reduce the self-inflicted wounds. Then, a counterpoint from the political science major:
"Sometimes people forget, defensive guys are also offered scholarships," Montgomery says. "And sometimes they just make good plays."
• EVANS: Inspired by Oregon's Mariota, QB Solomon gets chance to beat him
Hampered by a knee injury in 2012 -- he missed the Cardinal's last trip to South Bend because of that injury and is looking forward to his first game on Notre Dame's campus -- Montgomery broke out in 2013, totaling 61 catches for 958 yards (15.7 yards per catch). Numerous publications named him an All-America for his returns (30.3 yards per kickoff return, with two going for touchdowns) and all-around skills (he ranked ninth nationally with 157.7 all-purpose yards per game).
Like almost everyone else at Stanford, Montgomery is an overachiever: Realistic or not, he expects to get in the end zone every time he touches the ball. Like on Saturday against Washington, when Montgomery plowed through three Huskies defenders to get the final 10 yards to the end zone.
Plays like the touchdown still inspire awe in Montgomery's teammate, though they've become almost commonplace.
"I have the same reaction every time," Cajuste said. "'I can't believe that' ... and, 'I'm not surprised.' He turns into a freight train on his way to the end zone. He looks angry, but he's maintaining his body control the whole time, and it elevates him to another level."
Cajuste says he sees from the sideline "how a big return puts fear in the other team," and that personally, he appreciates that "80 percent of time we're not going to have to start our drive at the 20 or 25."
"There are times during a return when a hole starts to close," Alamar says. "Human nature is to slow down, go back, change direction. Ty understands there are points in a return where that's not an option. Most people would say, 'What else can you do?' Well, Ty goes and gets an extra 10 yards."

Washington: A new study has revealed that widely prescribed diabetic drug, metformin, could provide health benefits to both type 2 diabetics as well as people without the disease.
The findings indicated that a drug used to control glucose levels in the body and already known to exhibit anticancer properties, could offer prognostic and prophylactic benefits to people without diabetes.
The study also suggested that patients treated with the drug for diabetes type 2 could live longer than people without the condition.
Professor Craig Currie from Cardiff University's School of Medicine said that Patients treated with metformin had a small but statistically significant improvement in survival compared with the cohort of non-diabetics, whereas those treated with sulphonylureas had a consistently reduced survival compared with non-diabetic patients.
He further explained that the findings indicated that this cheap and widely prescribed diabetic drug may have beneficial effects not only on patients with diabetes but also for people without, and people with type 1 diabetes and it also have anti-cancer and anti-cardiovascular disease benefits, in fact it could also reduce pre-diabetics' chances of developing the disease by a third.
It was also suggested that this does not mean that people with type 2 diabetes get off Scott free as their disease would progress, so the best way to avoid the condition altogether would be by keeping moderately lean and taking some regular light exercise.
The study is published in a leading diabetes journal, Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism.

Benue State Governor Gabriel Suswam has added a religious tone to last Saturday's death of Kaduna State Governor Patrick Yakowa.
Although the governor was not categorical on the involvement of the dreaded Boko Haram sect in Yakowa's death, he said it was frightening that two of the four Christian governors in the 19 northern states have met tragedies in quick succession.
Suswam spoke at the NKST Church, High Level, Makurdi, the state capital.
The governor said he had security reports, which indicated that the Boko Haram sect might attack him soon.
He urged Christians to pray for his safety and his family.
Suswam said: "Going by security reports I receive daily, it's clear that I may be attacked any day, anywhere, anytime. This is the reason I called on Christians to pray for me and my family."
The governor noted that the plane crash in which Yakowa died was a worry to northern Christian.
He said the incident resembled the crash involving Taraba State Governor Danbaba Suntai, who is on receiving treatment in a German hospital.
Suswam said: "Suntia's condition was pathetically critical."
The governor was referring to the Taraba governor's condition when he visited him in Germany.
He said with Yakowa's death and Suntai's condition almost becoming hopeless, only two Christian governors are left in the North's 19 states.
Suswam urged Christians not to be carried away by the social aspect of the Yuletide but to pray to God for their leaders.
The governor condoled with the government and people of Kaduna State over Yakowa's death.
He described the late governor as a bridge builder, adding that he has done his best to bring peace to his state.
Suswam also described the late General Andrew Azazi, the former National Security Adviser (NSA), as an officer and a gentle man who served the country diligently in different capacities.
Gen. Azazi died in the military helicopter with Yakowa.
He prayed God to give the families the fortitude to bear the losses.
