Police are searching for a gunman after a man was shot and killed in a southwest Sydney street while children played nearby.
Joshua George was on Gidley Crescent in Claymore, near Campbelltown, with three friends at about 1.30pm (AEDT) when he was shot, in what police believe was a targeted attack.
The 24-year-old was taken to Campbelltown Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead, a police spokesman told AAP.
Detective Chief Inspector Mark Brett says it is believed that Mr George had fought with his attacker on Saturday in nearby Airds, on the other side of Campbelltown.
"The use of a firearm is a very serious offence and the death of a person as a result of that firearm is tragic," Det Chief Insp Brett told reporters in Sydney.
"We're doing everything we can to bring this to a quick resolution."
Witnesses have described how they tried to help the dying man after he had been shot.
"We tried to assist the guy, trying to put pressure on the wound," a witness told reporters at the scene.
The victim and his attacker were known to police, Det Chief Insp Brett said.
He said police wanted to speak to a local man in relation to the shooting, as well as to Mr George's three friends who are yet to contact officers.

CLIP - Corporate Learning Improvement Process
What is CLIP?
Companies are under ever greater pressure to manage their learning and people development processes strategically. Some of the critical objectives they face include:
- Attracting and retaining the best managers,
- Nurturing tomorrow's leaders
- Aligning strategy, competencies and behaviours,
- Disseminating knowledge and expertise throughout the organisation,
- Integrating the learning function into mainstream HR processes such as management development, talent management, succession planning, etc.,
- Shifting the emphasis from training to learning,
- Performance improvement.
To meet these challenges, the learning and training function in many firms has been enhanced to give it a central strategic role in the form of Corporate Universities, Corporate Business Schools, Academies, Management Institutes, among others.
Most of these bodies are still relatively young organisations in Europe. However, they are beginning to reach a stage of maturity in which there is a need for more sophisticated means of assessment in order to measure their effectiveness and justify the investments made. EFMD's Corporate Learning Improvement Process has been created to provide such a tool, as CLIP seeks to identify the key factors that determine quality in the design and functioning of corporate learning organisations.
The Value of CLIP
At its core, CLIP is a mechanism for quality benchmarking, mutual learning and sharing of good practice. Internal self-assessment against a comprehensive set of rigorous criteria, is combined with external review by experienced peers.
CLIP provides value externally and internally for those companies that go through the process. It is a quality certification and therefore has an external marketing value. For example, some companies highlight the award in their public sustainability reporting. Equally significant, though, it has internal value as it helps to position the learning organisation in a strategic way, giving it visibility and credibility within the company itself.
CLIP is a service for EFMD members. The CLIP scheme is monitored by a Steering Committee made up of leading professionals in the field, including Chief Learning Officers from major companies, with input from Executive Education specialists from major International Business Schools.

I go to Nancy's blog to look for the Pear & Cranberry Chutney recipe to cook for tomorrow and then remember that I have a blog too and that it had been silent way too long. So here I am 🙂
The truth is that I feel a bit like a caterpilar in a cocoon – hiding from everyone and in a process of a transformation. I never thought that I would think of stopping blogging here – so much this blog was me. What I didn't realise is that identities change or, to be more specific, some of those many identities in each of us take leading role for a while. Or, to be even more specific, I didn't realise how much my professional identity was leading in my life. Untill I stopped working 🙂
Letting go professional identity gave time and space to all others that were also in me, hidden. It's an interesting process to reflect on – letting go parts of your old life to give space for new things to emerge. And scary at times (enough not to write about it 🙂
As for the online writing – it feels funny to see how social media is getting picked up by lots of people I know and, at the same time, not to have much of the need to do it myself. I do write online – under a different nickname, mainly private and in Russian. Somehow that fits better what I need now (and helps building very different networks). Hopefully writing in Dutch will come as well (as I need it too), but I'm not there yet.
So, what I'm busy with now? All things "green" and local, sewing, house and kids, as well as alternative educational modes. There are a lot of things to write about there, although I'm not sure anymore that this blog is the right space for it (well, if you want to hear about my compost worms let me know :). The last topic would fit pretty well here, but at the moment writing about it feels a bit like writing about internal corporate issues while being employed there – it's a thin line to navigate and I'm not there yet.
I do miss many of you with whom I connected via this space. Unfortunately letting go work also means that lots of shared activities and shared spaces where you connects with your network go to the background. So, I just send all of you my best wishes for the coming year – strength to go out of your comfort zone and time to enjoy life 🙂

A Message from the President
Starting in April 2014, Clarion's strengthened operating structure is facilitating organizational reforms aimed at expansion of our business activities in the global markets—where we expect our future growth to come from. In order to build an even stronger global governance structure, the Chairman & CEO of the Clarion group, as the Chief Executive Officer, is now charged with developing the business policy and strategy, while the President & COO, as the Chief Operating Officer, is responsible for implementing the business plan which is based on this policy and strategy.
Since our establishment in 1940, Clarion has developed a wide range of operations. Over the past 74 years, our employees have pulled together to create great products that only Clarion can offer, embodying unique idea and innovations. And, we have successfully built a well deserved and recognized reputation as a superior manufacturer of in-vehicle equipment. This achievement is a direct result of our ongoing efforts to realize Clarion's corporate philosophy, namely, "to improve society by seeking to develop the relationship between sound, information, and human interaction, and by creating products that meet those needs."
Moreover, we have adapted quickly to change, seizing upon the ever-changing nature of the environment to identify opportunities and successfully changing direction significantly, from a manufacturer of in-vehicle equipment to a provider of in-vehicle information systems.
With information increasingly becoming indispensible in people's daily lives, Clarion relentlessly pursues opportunities in the information field in order to enrich the lives of its customers by offering safe and secure in-vehicle access to information and entertainment. We plan to continue to grow in key areas that are even more deeply intertwined with the essential aspects of in-vehicle connectivity.
To achieve this, we intend to carry out structural reforms aimed at simultaneously strengthening our business base while laying the foundation for growth. And, we will forge ahead with initiatives to cultivate new product domains and become a truly global company with our eyes set on upcoming growth markets.
As for where we intend to concentrate our efforts further:
Fully understanding the characteristics of each market, we at Clarion will enhance our presence in the global markets as a trusted and valued partner, further expanding our marketing and technological capabilities in order to realize an even better connection between sound, information, and human interaction—which lies at the heart of Clarion's global product development initiatives—and strive to deliver the very best that we can offer to our customers.
We will always remain true to the spirit of "We are Clarion", moving forward united and meeting our responsibilities to the society as a member of the Hitachi Group, with the goal of growing as a company that is truly liked and valued by the society.
Chief Executive Officer Tatsuhiko Izumi
Chief Operations Officer Hidetoshi Kawamoto
Expansion From In-Vehicle Equipment Manufacturer To In-Vehicle Information System Provider
The market environment surrounding Clarion is in upheaval. Clarion will face this rapidly changing market while promptly adapting and evolving its business model. As such, our domain is being shifted from the previous car navigation and audio as an invehicle equipment manufacturer, to new business domains of "Automotive Cloud Information Network Service" including software and service, as well as "Vision System" business in the realm of safety and security.
Realizing value-added products and services that "connect" by letting people access the various information and service they need, in their daily lives, any time they want, in an optimized format, so they can feel more fully a sense of safety, security and comfort.
Managing the information required for vehicles, people and the environment, in a cohesive manner, to provide each of our customers with maximum value through safety and comfort. These are the things that Clarion will provide by simultaneously developing a comprehensive information management system and optimized user interface, and linking them together to provide uniquely attractive customer value. Moreover, Clarion will pursue the limitless potential of future innovation, such as contributing to social infrastructure through energy management aimed at lessening the burden on the environment.
Activities of a Truly Global Corporation
Clarion divides its global operations into five regions, namely Japan, the Americas (North/Central/South America), Europe, China, and ASEAN/India. Each region maintains its own control function regarding the region, including the functions of marketing, development, production, and sales. We will continue to provide each and every region with the ideal products and services, by organically combining various functions based on geographical region, customers, and products. Instead of controlling everything from the headquarters in Japan, all regions will have the rights and responsibilities that come with autonomy, and by swiftly coordinating with other regions, a highly global management organization is realized.
Contributing to the Creation of a Sustainable Society
Global warming is one of the most critical environmental issues facing our planet, and its effects appear in ways that cross national boundaries, at an increasingly alarming pace. As the earth experiences abrupt environmental changes, the importance of environmental measures as a corporate responsibility also rises, as we attempt to realize a sustainable, recycle-based society.
At Clarion, we have positioned these environmental issues as business challenges, and are implementing the Clarion Environmental Management Plan on a global scale including our overseas business activities. In keeping with our aspirations to be a "company that is truly needed by society", global environmental considerations and activities such as these will be mission-critical to our enterprise.
To Our Stakeholders
To our customers, I wish to state that as society and technology continue to evolve, we will go on finding out user needs as quickly as possible, to provide unique products and services that incorporate the latest innovations. We will not rest as we continue to create products and services that offer true satisfaction, comfort and joy to our customers.
To our shareholders, I wish to report our intention to transform into a more robust corporate structure. We will continue to face lofty challenges to meet our new objectives.
To our suppliers and business partners, I would like to state that the entire Clarion Group is establishing "Automotive Cloud Information Network Service" as a new keystone for our business in addition to in-vehicle information equipment. As changes in the market environment, globalization, and technological advances all contribute to the accelerated pace of change in the world we live in, we will move as swiftly as possible to accommodate new challenges through an optimized corporate structure. Clarion promises to always be a clear thinker that is quick to action.
To our employees, let me say that the only way for Clarion to thrive is by sharing the values of each and every one of you and working diligently together. To help make this possible, we will be endeavoring to create a corporate environment where you can feel "I'm so glad to be a part of Clarion".
Generating Synergy by Harnessing the Comprehensive Strengths of Hitachi Group
As a member of the Hitachi group, Clarion generates synergy in a variety of situations. We cooperate closely with Hitachi's Information & Telecommunication Systems Company, and pool together their abundant experience and technological know-how in IT platforms, to provide the Cloud Service for Vehicle "Smart Access".
We are also working closely with Hitachi Automotive Systems, Ltd., who holds a large market share in drive control systems. We are exploring new values by combination of vehicle information and Clarion's in-car device so that our customers can be provided with a safer and more secure driving experience.
Hitachi, Ltd. owns and operates top-notch R&D facilities. By incorporating Hitachi's high quality study results into Clarion's products, including image-recognition technology to be used in Vision System products (camera compatible products), we at Clarion will be better able to introduce winning products into a fiercely competitive market.

One way to discourage a lot of voters from supporting the Terrebonne public school system's next tax proposal is to convince them it's the local Chamber of Commerce's plan.
One way to discourage a lot of voters from supporting the Terrebonne public school system's next tax proposal is to convince them it's the local Chamber of Commerce's plan.
That's why I agree with something School Board member L.P. Bordelon said Tuesday as the chamber offered help in establishing a Blue Ribbon Panel that will come up with a plan that will likely be used to ask voters for more tax money.
"The Blue Ribbon Panel is fine, but it has to be comprehensive in its makeup," he said. "There are a number of civic, cultural and self-interest groups that have a great stake in the parish. I would like to see this collaborative effort not only be between the chamber and the board but with all people in the parish."
It's not that I have anything against the Houma-Terrebonne Chamber of Commerce. I agree with many of the reasons the chamber cited in its opposition to the board's May 4 property tax proposal, which failed miserably at the polls, including the contention that the plan for what to do with the money lacked vision and detail.
And the chamber, as the tax's loudest and most organized opponent, owes it to the board and the community to extend the olive branch and help come up with a way to address some of the public school system's glaring needs. They include mediocre student test scores, teacher salaries that lag most parishes and buildings that, on average, are pushing 50-60 years old.
But here's the problem: While it may claim to have the best interests of the public schools in mind, its constituency is not the parish in all its diversity. Its constituency is business. Sure, the chamber has a vested interest in better public schools, but business executives often have different ideas than other residents and special interests about what a reasonable and equitable tax might look like.
Most executives I know, for instance, detest property taxes because, many contend, their companies bear a disproportionate share of the burden. Homeowners, in contrast, enjoy the benefit of the state's homestead exemption, which exempts the first $75,000 of a primary residence's value from taxes.
The business group's leadership apparently recognizes this perception problem, and I suspect that is why chamber Chairwoman Jennifer Armand proposed hiring an outside facilitator to guide the planning process, at the chamber's expense.
Usually, the person who signs the paycheck is the boss, so, to instill public trust, it will be important to show that whoever gets hired is acting independently. It's still unclear who gets to select the facilitator or the Blue Ribbon Committee, and that will affect public perception as well.
It will also be important to heed Bordelon's suggestion and make sure the panel has a diverse membership. That means diversity of thought, race and income level. That means people from up the bayou and down the bayou. That means students, parents and ordinary taxpayers who aren't necessarily affiliated with any of the usual power brokers. That means all of us.
As this effort gets off the ground, I'm willing to give the board and the chamber the benefit of the doubt. I'm optimistic they can do this in a way that involves everyone. Now, they'll both have to prove it.

Beaufort County students will join their counterparts across South Carolina in walking and biking to school on Wednesday along with parents, teachers, and community leaders as part of South Carolina Walk to School Day.
Nine district schools are participating: Beaufort Elementary, Beaufort Middle, Bluffton Elementary, Hilton Head Island Middle, M.C. Riley Elementary, Mossy Oaks Elementary, Port Royal Elementary, Red Cedar Elementary and Robert Smalls Middle schools.
Wednesday's statewide events are a spring version of the popular International Walk to School Day held each October. More than 130 schools across South Carolina - including six from Beaufort County - participated in that event.
Walk to School Day events promote safer routes for walking and biking and emphasize the importance of increasing physical activity for children. In areas where children live too far from school to walk or bike safely, schools can offer a "Walk at School" event or designate a nearby "Park and Walk" site where parents can park and walk the remaining distance to school with their children.
The events also emphasize pedestrian safety, reduced traffic congestion, and better connections between families, schools and the broader community.
South Carolina Walk to School Day helps schools initiate conversations about how walking and biking can:Enhance health by increasing the amount of physical activity.Improve air quality by reducing automobile emissions in the school zone.Make the streets safer by relieving traffic congestion.
The Safe Routes to School Resource Center is a federally funded project of the South Carolina Department of Transportation that provides education, encouragement and planning support to K-8 schools throughout South Carolina that wish to partner with the Resource Center. Services and materials are provided at no cost to the schools and their communities.
For more information, go to www.SCSafeRoutes.org or contact Carolyn Battaglia, Lowcountry School Outreach Coordinator (email@example.com, 864-642-5412).

2 reporters who probed NSA surveillance back in US
NEW YORK (AP) — Two reporters central to revealing the massive U.S. government surveillance effort returned to the United States on Friday for the first time since the story broke and used the occasion to praise their exiled source: Edward Snowden.
Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras of The Guardian became a story of their own amid speculation they could be arrested upon arriving at Kennedy Airport. They were instead confronted by only reporters and photographers before fighting through traffic en route to a midtown Manhattan hotel to receive a George Polk Award for national security reporting.
In remarks before an audience of other journalists and editors, the pair credited the courage of Snowden, the former NSA contractor who leaked the information for their story.
"This award is really for Edward Snowden," Poitras said.
Greenwald said, "I hope that as journalists we realize not only the importance of defending our own rights, but also those of our sources like Edward Snowden."
The pair shared the award with The Guardian's Ewen MacAskill and Barton Gellman, who has led The Washington Post's reporting on National Security Agency surveillance. Revelations about the spy programs were first published in the two newspapers in June.
At the airport, Greenwald said he and Poitras were not "100 percent sure" they could enter the U.S. without being arrested. He said lawyers had been seeking assurance from the Justice Department "and they purposefully wouldn't give them any information about whether we were the target of a grand jury or whether there was already an indictment that was under seal."
Still, Greenwald said he "expected that they wouldn't be that incredibly stupid and self-destructive to try and do something that in the eyes of the world would be viewed as incredibly authoritarian."
After the award ceremony, Greenwald told reporters that he still speaks regularly to Snowden, who was granted asylum in Russia for a year. He said Snowden was aware Greenwald and Poitras were to be honored in New York and "was very supportive of that."
Republican U.S. Rep. Peter King, who leads the House Homeland Security subcommittee on counterterrorism and intelligence, called Greenwald "a disgrace to journalism and the country."
"No American should give Glenn Greenwald an award for anything," he said.
Snowden has been charged with three offenses in the U.S., including espionage, and could face up to 30 years in prison if convicted.
The disclosures have led to proposed overhauls of some U.S. surveillance programs, changes in the way the government spies on foreign allies, additional disclosures to defendants in some terrorism cases and demands from private companies to share details about government cooperation with their customers and shareholders.
Associated Press Writer Eileen Sullivan contributed to this report from Washington.

I love these needles. Am getting another set for a friend.
December 14, 2015
This is my first set of interchangeable knitting needles and I really like them much better than straight knitting needles. They are working well for me. I have had no trouble with the connections. I'm thinking of purchasing the interchangeable crochet set. I also like the fact they are made in the USA. Would recommend!
May 10, 2014
I bought these with my Christmas bonus about five or six years ago. For the first few years I LOVED THEM!! I have bits and pieces of the kit in projects, still. I've gotten to the point that I only knit on cable needles anymore. The shorter tips allow me to work in more places and enable me to store projects in smaller bags when I'm not working on them. The longer I've had the set, though, the more issues I've had with the segments coming apart in the middle of a row. Thankfully, none of the projects have been completely lost, but it's getting more and more frustrating the longer I use them. Maybe I just need to start replacing pieces, but that is slim comfort when you're trying to pick up the lost stitches in the middle of a row. I've tried a different kit with interchangeable tips and cables, and had the same problem. I think I'm just going back to traditional cable needles.
March 10, 2014
While on a cruise I met a lady who was using these needles and she bragged about them so much I thought I would try them. The Denise brand snap into place with just one twist and they never came undone. I love these needles and they are good for traveling. I also like the fact that you can make them straight or as long as you want. Great product. I would recommend them to all who are looking for a set of needles.
January 10, 2014
I've had my Denise's Knitting Needle Kit for about a year now ... I'm more than happy with it!! In fact, since I've owned this set, I've used nothing else but these needles. They are the best ...! There is nothing you can't make with these, from a sweater, afghan, slippers, the list goes on. Well worth the price as you'll never need to look around or purchase needles to coincide with whatever any pattern suggests using for your project. Happy knitting!!!! Denise D.

Although I consider myself a fan of the Shrek franchise, I have never really ventured into the tie-in game marketplace. Given that the movies have always featured such a strong narrative, I haven't felt the need to really augment my movie-going experience by playing the game. However, after playing Shrek Forever After, I have to say that I might have gotten it wrong. Though the game isn't particularly deep, it does nail the movie tie-in formula, and it manages to have a few memorable moments that will delight young players and just may charm some seasoned old-timers as well.
The game's plot follows the events fairly explicitly and assumes familiarity with the series. It wastes no time introducing you to Shrek and his friends, so if you've missed the last three movies, you may be lost at the beginning, as the events from the past movies (specifically the first two) affect the story directly. The game opens with the new character of Rumplestiltskin explaining that Shrek's entire life has been wrong, and he shouldn't have married Fiona or started a family. To correct this problem, Rumplestiltskin has Shrek sign a contact which Shrek believes will let him have his life back for one day. However, he ends up in an alternate world where he never met Fiona, and none of his adventures ever happened. The solution? True love's kiss, of course!
The game puts you in charge of the movie's four protagonists: Shrek, Fiona, Donkey, and Puss in Boots. Although only one character will appear on-screen at a time, you can switch between them with the quick press of a directional button. Each character has their own life meter, and they also have a special skill that will help you solve the game's many puzzle levels. Shrek is the heavy lifter of the bunch, Fiona is the incendiary specialist, Puss can reach high areas, and Donkey can kick.
Using these characters' special skills together forms the backbone of the gameplay mechanic, and even though most of the game's environment-based puzzles are extremely simplistic (carry box with Shrek, kick it into place with Donkey, and then set it on fire with Fiona), the game's puzzles are challenging enough for a younger audience to enjoy. However, the game is more than just puzzles. After clearing three or four puzzle rooms, you'll be able to participate in arena-style battles with baddies attacking you from all sides. Although combat in Shrek Forever After is simple (you only have one attack button), you can use a little bit of strategy as each character is able to "stun" characters so they can rack up combos and use special moves.
Though the puzzle-and-brawl formula will seem very shallow for older gamers, it works perfectly for younger gamers. And while some of the puzzles do get challenging towards the end, the game has a hint system that allows you to trade in-game currency for a single step of the puzzle solution. If you are really stumped, you can pay more to reveal more, or even enough for the entire solution. This is a great failsafe for the youngest players who may become easily frustrated by some of the later puzzles (which I can admit even took me awhile to figure out!). While older and more experienced players will find the game's formula to be a bit tedious, it is perfect for younger players who are new to video games or don't have much experience with complicated titles.
Technically, Shrek forever after is spot on. The visuals are nicely detailed, and both the real Far Far Away and the constructed one (you can travel between both via the Magic Mirror) come to life in great detail. Although all of the levels follow a linear path, the game does a great job of fleshing out the world around the characters, and it is unlikely that young ones who pick up this title will get bored with their surroundings. The sound in this title is also very good, and it features some very convincing performances by the sound-alike cast. The background music is sampled from the movie's score, and the arena battle areas feature some of the most memorable songs from the franchise's history (including the ubiquitous "I'm a Believer" remake from the first movie.)
Shrek Forever After is not a game for everyone. However, if you know kids that are interested in the Shrek movies, this is definitely a worthwhile investment. With varied gameplay and solid technical specs, this title is a perfect fit for young or budding gamers, and it fits well with the story of the new movie. Though the game itself isn't very long, there is enough content here for at least ten hours of kid-friendly gameplay.

All alone in first place after the Southern Conference's opening football game, the favorite to win the championship will now face the team that finished first in preseason polls.
All alone in first place after the Southern Conference's opening football game, the favorite to win the championship will now face the team that finished first in preseason polls.
Confusing? Well, that's what happens when two teams leaving the league are declared ineligible for the title and postseason but remain eligible for rankings.
Wofford (1-1), the Southern Conference media's pick to win the championship, plays host 7 p.m. Saturday at Gibbs Stadium to Georgia Southern (2-0), which entered the season in the top position after votes were tabulated.
Georgia Southern and also Appalachian State, the team picked third, behind Wofford, are not eligible for the league title or bids in the FCS postseason because they have exceeded the scholarship limits as they transition into to the FBS level. GSU and ASU are in their farewell seasons in the Southern Conference.
That makes for a bit of an awkward season for all involved. Games against Georgia Southern and Appalachian State still count in the league standings for other teams. So if any can knock off GSU, it would go far toward a possible championship.
"It's a huge game," Wofford head coach Mike Ayers said. "It's our first home game and it's a game against Georgia Southern. That right there makes it a huge game."
Georgia Southern has won three straight in the series, including 17-9 last year in Statesboro, Ga. The Terriers beat the Eagles at Gibbs Stadium during the 2010 regular season but came back two months later and knocked Wofford out of the playoffs, 23-20.
"We've had some knock-down, drag-outs," Ayers said. "They've gotten the best of us for a while."
Wofford opened this season with a 69-3 loss at Baylor and then bounced back with a 21-10 victory at The Citadel. Georgia Southern has won both of its two games against lesser opponents. The Eagles beat Savannah State, 77-9, and then St. Francis (Division II), 59-17.
"They're an elite team because of the skill positions that they have," Ayers said. "They're an explosive team. They're very physical. If you're going to play those guys, you have to be physical, too. You have to be able to execute. You can't make mistakes."
Wofford faced a similar offense, the option-based style the Terriers also use, against The Citadel and held the Bulldogs to 262 yards of total offense, 90 of which came on their final drive after falling behind by 11 points.
"Any time you can go on the road and get a win after a loss like we had last week is great," Wofford linebacker Kevin Thomas said. "Playing well this week will get us ready for the next game because we play another option team in Georgia Southern."
Georgia Southern, after losing four of five against Wofford from 2002 through 2006, has won five of the past seven. In addition to the 33-21 win by the Terriers during the 2010 regular season, they also had a 38-37 overtime victory in Statesboro in 2008.

Williams plays down RVP incident
Ashley Williams has played down the controversial incident when Robin van Persie was struck on the head during Swansea's draw with Manchester United.
• Blog: Unusual suspects deliver
• Blog: Utd off the pace in draw
With Van Persie on the ground, a ball struck by Williams hit the striker on the head. United boss Sir Alex Ferguson was incensed, saying: "Robin van Persie is lucky to be alive. It was a disgraceful act from their player and he should be banned by the FA. Robin could have had a broken neck."
Williams, who was booked by referee Michael Oliver, has insisted it was not intentional and wants to move on.
"I understand why Van Persie was angry," Williams told Sky Sports. "I've kicked the ball away in frustration, but I wasn't trying to hit him in the head.
"I tried to say sorry, but he wasn't having it. I haven't spoken to him since the game and I didn't shake hands afterwards - but only because I didn't see him. As far as I'm concerned it's no big deal.
"If I had tried to hit him on the head deliberately, I would have missed! It's not like I'm going to shoot and hit him square in the head like that."

CMU Women Fall in HAAC Tournament Championship
OLATHE, KS - Top-seed MidAmerica Nazarene (Kan.) used a strong first half to pull out a 77-71 win over No. 3-seed Central Methodist in the 2013 Heart of America Athletic Conference Women's Basketball Tournament championship game in Bell Family Arena.
The Pioneers (30-2) improve their win streak to 20 games, while the Eagles (25-7) see their four-game win streak snapped and will have to wait until Wednesday at 4 p.m. CT to see if an at-large berth to the 33rd Annual Division I Women's Basketball National Championship Presented by Kentuckytourism.com is in order. MidAmerica Nazarene already secured an automatic bid to the big dance by winning the HAAC's regular-season title. No. 12 Benedictine (Ken.) takes the HAAC's second automatic berth in the national playoffs by finishing second in the league in the regular season.
MidAmerica Nazarene wins its second straight HAAC Tournament. The Pioneers also won the 2011-12 and 2012-13 conference regular-season championships.
The Green and Black fall to 1-2 all-time in the HAAC Tournament championship game and 0-2 on the road.
Kyra Williams opened with a three in the first 1:30 for Central Methodist, while Kiley Herold scored the first four points for MidAmerica Nazarene. The Pioneers jumped out to a 14-7 lead through the first five minutes.
The Eagles responded with a 7-0 run in the span of three minutes, as Raylyn Nuss canned her first three at the 13:35 mark before giving the Green and Black their first lead, 17-16, one minute later off a jumper in transition.
Megan Balcom hit a three with nine minutes left to make the score 23-18 in favor of the Pioneers. Central Methodist's Towanda Sutton hit a jumper at the eight minute mark to cut the deficit to 26-22. She had nine of the Eagles' first 22 points, but Megan Balcom hit a jumper to stretch her team's lead to nine, 31-22, with 6:12 remaining in the half.
A Herold running layup stretched the Pioneers' advantage to 35-22. Herold and Megan Balcom were each 4-of-7 from the floor through the first 16 minutes of the game. Meanwhile, Central Methodist went a six minute stretch without scoring before Williams sank two free throws at the three minute mark. Williams sank a jumper in the paint as time expired, but the Eagles trailed 45-28 at the break.
The Pioneers shot 48.8 percent (20-of-41) in the first 20 minutes. The Green and Black were only 35.5 percent (11-of-31) from the field.
Reigning HAAC Player of the Week Britney Joseph and Sammie Gathercole each scored four points to open the second half, and the Eagles were able to trim the deficit to 47-36 following a Gathercole jumper at the 18:14 mark.
The Green and Black mounted a rally in the half beginning at the 13:46 mark. Down 53-40, a Sutton jumper triggered an 11-2 spurt. Gathercole brought the Eagles within six at 53-47 following a trey on the fastbreak, and Taylor Cornelison found the bottom of the net midway through the period to cut the difference to as little as 55-51. However, Megan Balcom came back down the court and made a three to stretch the margin back to seven and halt Central Methodist's momentum.
Megan Balcom led all scorers with 17. Kelsey Balcom and Kendra Flemming had 13 apiece. Daria Sprew tallied 11.
Herold finished with a double-double, 10 points and 13 rebounds.
Sutton finished Tuesday's game 7-of-12 from the floor and totaled 15 points. Joseph and Williams pumped in 13 and 12, respectively. Gathercole had nine, while Jasmine Poteete added seven.
Joseph also came up with seven rebounds, two blocks and a game-high four steals.
The Pioneers shot 45.7 percent (32-of-70) overall with 20 assists on 32 made buckets. The Eagles were 41.9 percent (26-of-62) from the floor, including 48.4 percent (15-of-31) in the final 20 minutes.

Last Wednesday evening, Formaggio Kitchen in Cambridge gave class attendees a rare opportunity to witness what most foodies only read about: the actual carving of a pig.
In the spirit of Cochon555, a traveling competition centered on the appreciation and creative preparation of all things porcine, Julie Biggs and Jason Lord reduced a 110-pound heritage pig into cuts of meat easily recognized in your local meat case. Picnic hams, tenderloins, Boston Butt cuts, spareribs, pig's feet, and jowl were all on the menu.
As attendees arrived for the class, they found themselves in the presence of a carcass that had been initially prepared; the head was separated from the body, which was cut cleanly in half. It took some a few moments to adjust to what they were standing next to, but there were no real surprises. Biggs commented, "These people know why they are here, and they know what they are going to see."
Biggs and Lord's sheer passion for their work quickly mitigated any slight discomfort.
Biggs, Formaggio's charcutière, and Lord, the chef for Formaggio South End, were excited to conduct Pig Butchery 101: Primal Cuts from Head to Tail. "I love how cool pigs are today," said Lord. "People are more educated and interested in what they eat."
Neither Biggs nor Lord has any formal training in butchery per se. "I never learned butchering in culinary school," said Lord. When asked how he acquired the considerable skills he was demonstrating throughout the evening, he confided, "I learned from sticking around [East Coast Grill, in Cambridge]. I just got involved." Biggs is still learning. "I've always wanted to learn," she said. "I love the idea of going to a farm, picking out an animal, and seeing it through to the end myself."
Throughout the class, attendees sampled dishes made from various parts of the pig. The starter was a simple sausage roll; a light pastry shell filled with browned sausage with a hint of garlic. Next came "head to tail" posole, a traditional Mexican stew made from "bits and pieces" of pork livened up with hominy, cayenne pepper, cumin, and other spices in a robust pork broth.
For those feeling a little more adventurous, pig ear salad came next. This was many people's first experience with pig ear, and most found the salad to be a pleasant balance between salty (from the roasted pig's ear and capers) and tangy (from the citrus vinaigrette dressing). The final tasting was a Chinese-styled pork belly, sliced and served simply, letting the flavors of the meat's fats melt in their mouths. During each course, Formaggio manager Vince Razionale kept guests' glass full of rich, dark ales and stouts to complement each of the dishes.
A recurring theme during the evening was respect. "As long as you respect and appreciate what the animal is doing for you, you're in the clear," Lord said. Several times he leaned near the animal and thanked it in a hushed tone.
Watching Biggs and Lord treat the animal with such reverence summed up the spirit of the event. In dismantling their heritage pig, they were completing the journey of an animal in the food chain for our benefit, and while the results were tasty and the mood light, they never lost sight of what was actually happening. When asked why an experience like this was so important for people to have, and why he loved participating, Lord said it best.
"It's real."

A BlankTV Premiere Presentation:
We Are The Catalyst - "Tomorrow"
Artist Bio:
We Are The Catalyst was formed in Varberg, Sweden, by Catrin Feymark and Kenny Boufadene in November of 2012.
After several years of touring and releasing albums as members of the Swedish Modern Metal act One Without, both Kenny and Catrin felt the need to do something different from what they had previously done both musically and ideologically.
The first single "Beware of Snakes" was released in November of 2012 which also meant that the band started to receive attention from media and fans around the world. The second single "This is Paranoia" was released in December together with the bands first music video. Next in line was the release of the cover of "Swedish House Mafia's" hit song "Don't You Worry Child", also this time together with a music video. The cover was well received by fans of both acts, with many SHM fans claiming that they did not expect to like a rock cover of the song, but that they had been positively surprised.
A few releases later and the band released their first EP; "Panem Et Circenses" on May 2nd 2013, and are now working on their full-length debut album.
About The Video:
We got in touch with Grzegorz Jonkajtys, (who has worked on movies such as Transformers, Terminator Salvation, Cloud Atlas, Pacific Rim, Star Trek Into Darkness, Sin City, Pans Labyrinth and many more) through our manager, and loved what he had done with his short film "Legacy", so we started talking about a possible collaboration and ended up doing the video for "Tomorrow" using "Legacy" as the storyline, with a fantastic result!

Obama Plan For World War III Stuns Russia
29 ianuarie 2013 Lasă un comentariu
A grim Federal Security Services (FSB) report circulating in the Kremlin confirming the validity of the just released hacked emails of the British based defence company, Britam Defence, stunningly warns that the Obama regime is preparing to unleash a series of attacks against both Syria and Iran in a move Russian intelligence experts warn couldvery well cause World War III.
According to this report, Britam Defence, one of the largest private mercenary forces in the world, was the target of a "massive hack" of its computer files by an "unknown state sponsored entity" this past week who released a number of critical emails between its top two executives, founder Philip Doughty and his Business Development Director David Goulding.
The two most concerning emails between Doughty and Goulding, this report says, states that the Obama regime has approved a "false flag" attack in Syria using chemical weapons, and that Britam has been approved to participate in the West's warn on Iran, and as we can read:
Email 1: Phil, We've got a new offer. It's about Syria again. Qataris propose an attractive deal and swear that the idea is approved by Washington. We'll have to deliver a CW (chemical weapon) to Homs (Syria), a Soviet origin g-shell from Libya similar to those that Assad should have. They want us to deploy our Ukrainian personnel that should speak Russian and make a video record. Frankly, I don't think it's a good idea but the sums proposed are enormous. Your opinion? Kind regards David
Email 2: Phil, Please see attached details of preparatory measures concerning the Iranian issue. Participation of Britam in the operation is confirmed by the Saudis.
Further confirmation of these attacks was released by theZerohedge News Service, one of the most respected financial websites in the world, who in their article yesterday titled US Preparing 'Surgical' Strikes Against Iran warned:
"Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says his nation must prepare for the threat of a chemical attack from Syria, amid concern at enemy efforts to test a post-election coalition Israel, and, as Bloomberg reports, has deployed its new Iron Dome anti-missile system near the border with its northern neighbor. Along with this concern, as many have perhaps suspected, the Israeli Defense Minister confirmed yesterday that the US has prepared plans for a 'surgical' military operation to delay Iran's nuclear program."
Interesting to note, this report says, is that during this past week, all of the users of the CIA-backed social media websites Facebook and Instagram (owned by Facebook) who made postings of the Britam hack, or links about it, had their accounts suspended and were denied reentry unless they submitted a US government approved ID.
Russian legal analysts further note in this report that should the Obama regime unleash chemical weapons in Syria it would be a "gross violation" of international law subjecting nearly all top US officials, including their President, to charges of committing "crimes against humanity."
Unbeknownst to the greater number of American people, this report continues, are that the so-called revolutions in Libya and Syria are nothing more than CIA operations who while using the vast resources of their government and military have nearly destroyed these two nations and their peoples.
Equally being suppressed from the American people by their government and propaganda media are the true reasons for these CIA wars, and which in the case of Libya involves vast underground stores of oil (fifth largest in the world), and in the case of Syria one of the largest natural gas deposits on Earth under the Mediterranean Seacalled the Levitation Gas Field which was discovered in 2010.
Most curious to note about the West's over 10-year war to secure for itself the entire global supply of oil and gas are that its highest political elites don't even try to hide this fact, though their propaganda media does suppress it, and as we can read:
"Five months before September 11, US Vice President Dick Cheney advocated using force against Iraq … to securecontrol of its oil. The Afghanistan war was, also, planned before 9/11. According to French intelligence officers, the US wanted to run an oil pipeline through Afghanistan to transport Central Asian oil more easily and cheaply. And so the US told the Taliban shortly before 9/11 that they would either get "a carpet of gold or a carpet of bombs", the former if they greenlighted the pipeline, the second if they didn't."
US Senator Lindsey Graham and Congressman Ed Markey both admitted "Well, we're in Libya because of oil."
And, most importantly, former NATO Commander, US General Wesley Clark, admitted, that 10 after the 11 September 2001 attacks on America, the Pentagon released a secret plan for total war on the Middle East startingwith Iraq and ending with Iran, with the governments of Libya, Syria, Lebanon and Somalia being included too for total destruction.
Most critical to note as this New Great Game over the world's energy resources, and the pipelines that will secure them, enters another critical phase, but which this report doesn't mention, is the response Moscow will make asvast numbers of Russian warships from the Black Sea, Baltic and Arctic Naval Fleets are currently residing in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea and should the Obama regime start unleashing chemical weapons in Syria.

In addition to the multi-client surveys and the ad hoc surveys, IFM's Economic Observatory produces economic reviews and organizes an annual seminar, that are essential tools for the businesses in the fashion sector in general.

Recent years have seen remarkable growth in the trading relationship between India and Australia, fuelled by the many complementarities between the two economies. Two-way trade in goods and services has grown in value from $6.8 billion in FY2003-04 to $14.8 billion in FY2013-14.
India is the world's largest democracy and is a market of 1.2 billion people. Its youthful population, diversified economy and growth trajectory present significant opportunity for Australian business, especially in the agriculture, energy, manufacturing, mining and services sectors.
Negotiations to conclude a Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement between Australia and India were launched in May 2011. There have been nine rounds of negotiations, the most recent of which was held in September 2015.
During official visits to India and Australia in September and November 2014 respectively, former Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi renewed both countries' commitment for an early conclusion of an equitable, balanced, comprehensive and high quality agreement.
The Department is seeking public submissions on the Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement negotiations.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade welcomes submissions from interested individuals and groups on the potential outcomes and impacts of a Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement with India. Submissions need not be lengthy and may build on or refer to submissions made during the joint feasibility study on a bilateral free trade agreement.
In particular, information is sought on specific interests and issues in relation to Australia's trade, investment and economic cooperation with India, including barriers to trade and investment faced by Australian goods and services exporters and investors in India.
Submissions will be made publicly available and posted on this website unless the author specifies otherwise.
Guidance on preparing submissions
Interested parties are encouraged to lodge their submissions. Submissions should be lodged through at least one of the following options:
Austrade has identified potential opportunities for Australian suppliers of goods and services in a number of sectors. Austrade's India country page supplies general information on doing business and on specific export opportunities. The Austrade website has a database that can be searched by industry.
In April 2008, Australia and India began a joint feasibility study to examine the merits of a bilateral free trade agreement. The study, which includes an independent economic modelling component, examined the potential impact on Australia and India of a free trade agreement, including implications for economic growth, trade in goods and services, investment and other commercial linkages. The completed study is available below:
The study found that a comprehensive free trade agreement covering goods, services and investment between Australia and India could lead to a substantial increase in trade in goods, that there is further potential in trade in services and considerable scope for enhanced investment links.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade would like to thank all those who contributed submissions to the Australia-India Free Trade Agreement Joint Feasibility Study.
