How the darts landed
Hit all our picks straight up last week except our gamble on Carolina winning. Correctly had San Diego-with-points but that was about it against the spread. (Seattle's win was a push.) Rolling big dice this week with both road 'dogs winning outright for an unexpected Patriots-Niners Super Bowl. Anybody else with me on that? Nah, I didn't think so. By the way, this week's usual Friday NFL column previewing Championship Weekend will instead appear online Saturday and in Sunday's newspaper.
|Vs. spread
|Last week
|Final regular season
AFC Championship
PATRIOTS (No. 2 seed, 13-4) at BRONCOS (No. 1, 14-3)
Line: DEN by 5 1/2.
Cote's pick: NE 31-27.
TV: 3 p.m. Sunday, CBS.
The 15th and perhaps last edition of Tom Brady vs. Peyton Manning of course is the broad framework for Sunday's early game, the duel of Canton-bound arms in some ways seeming even bigger than the game, than Patriots-Broncos. The result is for the AFC's Lamar Hunt Trophy and a spot in the Super Bowl, but based on the preamble, you'd think it was mostly about the two QBs and their legacies. Clearly, Brady's 10-4 edge head-to-head and more pedigreed postseason résumé puts the far greater pressure here on Manning to win at home and not end his historic season sourly. So does the teams' wild regular-season meeting, won by the Pats 34-31 in overtime. You'll recall Denver led 24-0 before collapsing under Brady's assault, and that Manning (150 yards) had his worst game of the season. Weather should not be a big factor in the rematch; cold but no rain. Besides, a team from outside Boston is supposed to have chattering teeth in Denver? I like New England in what would be a big upset, and I do so with utmost respect for Manning and Denver's home record. Picking against Peyton at home feels like betting against tomorrow's sunrise, but the gut feeling here is pretty strong. Saturday-game winners in the previous round are 7-1 since 2010 in this round, a trend favoring New England. Manning is 6-11 all-time against Bill Belichick teams. John Fox is 1-6 against the Pats. NE finally has a running game and has three very good cornerbacks. And here's something else that might seem small but isn't: Denver is missing injured CB Chris Harris, and the Broncs' opposing passer skyrockets when Harris isn't on the field. That'll clear a path for Brady to victimize 34-year-old replacement Quentin Jammer and to continue his mastery of Manning.
NFC Championship
49ERS (No. 5 seed, 14-4) at SEAHAWKS (No. 1, 14-3)
Line: SEA by 3 1/2.
Cote's pick: SF 20-17.
TV: 6:30 p.m. Sunday, Fox.
These teams' first postseason meeting is a brutally delicious matchup between two coaches who don't like each other in a bitter division rivalry whose fulcrum will be punishing defense. I get that Seattle's "12th Man" fans are supposed to make the venue the difference here. Earthquakes, decibels, yada yada yada. I know that Seattle is 16-1 at home the past two seasons and has won six consecutive home games in the postseason. And I know — acutely — that San Fran has lost its past two trips to SEA by a combined 71-16 score. OK. Deep breath. Now repeat after me: The most likely effect of those past two games in Seattle is to make the 49ers angry and assert themselves to not be embarrassed again. (Yes. Yes I AM picking another upset!) Give me the hotter-than-Hades Niners to win the NFC's George Halas Trophy and get back to the Super Bowl. San Fran has won eight games in a row and is playing its best right now. The Niners' defense is as good as Seattle's or imperceptibly shy of it, and SF's offense is hitting on more cylinders coming in than Seattle's. If Frank Gore and Marshawn Lynch are a running-game push, Colin Kaepernick vs. Russell Wilson is not. At least not lately. Give me The Tattooed One. Wilson has been pretty ordinary the past five games, a stretch during which Seattle's offense has averaged a Dolphinesque 20 points and 265 yards per game. Six consecutive NFC Championship Games have been decided by seven points or fewer, three in overtime. This one should continue that streak, maybe right down to the OT. Due respect to Seattle's ear-busting crowd, but it's San Fran bringing the hotter all-round team capable of jamming the mute button on all of those sonic decibels.

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

Horticulture Major ConcentrationsStudents pursuing the 4-year, baccalaureate major Horticulture choose from among the following concentrations:
Horticultural Production and Marketing
Horticultural production and marketing prepares students in the production of horticultural crops or management of horticultural enterprises. Graduates may manage greenhouses or nurseries, floral or plant shops, garden centers, orchards, vegetable farms, and farm markets. They may be involved with development, distribution, or sales of equipment, chemicals, or plant materials.
Plan of StudyDetailed Requirements for the DegreeFor additional information contact: firstname.lastname@example.com
Landscape Contracting and Management
Students selecting landscape contracting and management, are prepared to direct and conduct in "hands-on" fashion, the technical side of landscape construction and plant installation. Graduates of this program often operate a landscape design/build or construction and/or maintenance firm, work as a grounds manager.Plan of StudyDetailed Requirements for the DegreeFor additional information contact: email@example.com
Landscape Enterprise Management
Plant Science
Plant science is an option which includes training to improve plants through genetic manipulation and to investigate new methods of propagation, growth, handling, and marketing of horticultural crops. Horticultural scientists work at colleges and universities, state and federal experiment stations, and public or private laboratories and foundations. This curriculum prepares students for scientifically oriented careers such as technicians in plant breeding, propagation, and research industries. It is an excellent preparatory program for students planning to pursue post-graduate study toward a Masters or PhD degree.Plan of StudyDetailed Requirements for the DegreeFor additional information contact: firstname.lastname@example.com
Public horticulture is a professional program leading to employment in botanical gardens, arboretums and other horticultural establishments in the public sector, as curators of plant collections, educators, plant propagators, illustrators, and writers. Practical training through internships in public gardens is stressed.Plan of StudyDetailed Requirements for the DegreeFor additional information contact: email@example.com
Sustainable Food and Farming Systems Major
Turf Management and Science Major
Horticulture Minor
The minor in Horticulture provides students an overview of the discipline with some opportunity to focus on topics within. It requires the completion of 16 credits, 7 of which are credits from required courses, the remainder are selectives from a prescribed list. Click here for the plan of study.
Detailed Requirements for the Baccalaureate Degree
Each concentration includes the School of Agriculture Core Curriculum, the Horticulture Core Curriculum, and a group of specialized courses focused on the option area. A total of 120 academic credits, and 320 hours of horticultural work experience (six-month internship for Public Horticulture), is required for graduation. During the first two years, the coursework emphasis is on basic studies such as communications, biology, chemistry, soils, etc. in preparation for more advanced work. In addition, there are introductory level horticulture courses such as Fundamentals of Horticulture, HORT 101. During your junior and senior years, you will study more advanced material in horticulture and plant physiology, and in the liberal arts, international and broadening subjects. In addition, depending on your specific interests (such as graduate studies, business, etc.) and declared option, courses will be taken in areas such as business management, landscape horticulture and design, advanced plant science and biotechnology, or public horticulture. Most classes must be taken for a letter grade, but a portion of a student's elective coursework may be taken pass-no pass. The equivalent of a "C" grade is required for "pass." See the School of Agriculture catalog for more details about the pass-no pass option. A passing grade in all courses is a "D", but you need a 2.00 grade point average for graduation. Practical experience is a very important part of career preparation for students of horticulture. It can help the student decide precisely what aspect of horticulture is right for them. It also makes graduates more attractive to employers as they complete their degree and seek first-time positions. Work experience is required of all horticulture students. For most, 320 hours of work experience is needed. Summer work between regular semesters is the most common way in which this requirement is satisfied. A letter from the employer to the Student Services Coordinator must document it. The letter becomes a part of your permanent record. No student will be certified for graduation until the work experience letter is on file. Public Horticulture option students are required to complete a six-month internship in place of the 320 hours of work experience described above. See the Internship Programs section for more information about completing a Public Horticulture internship.

State Agencies |

Ohio's Accountability System includes four components: State Indicators, Performance Index score, Value Added, and AYP (Adequate Yearly Progress). FAQs provided below offer in-depth explanations for the most common questions about the Accountability System and its implementation.
The Accountability Committee of the State Board of Education is tasked with implementing the A-F report card. You can view their minutes and materials at the website. You can provide feedback by e-mailing the committee at: firstname.lastname@example.com
Back to Top
Several new measures will be included for the first time in 2013-14. These include the graded Improving At-Risk K-3 Readers measure, as well as the Prepared for Success measures of college- and career-readiness (which will be reported in 2013-14 and graded in 2014-15). Other new elements include a district financial page and a Gifted education dashboard.
Federal rules limit the percentage of students who may demonstrate proficiency through the use of an alternate assessment. This rule was adopted to constrain Local Education agencies (LEAs) from placing students in an "easier" testing environment as a way to boost test scores and meet AYP. The rule caps at 1% the percentage of students at the district level that may demonstrate proficiency through the use of an assessment based on alternate achievement standards. LEAs that exceed the cap will have some scores "demoted" from passing to failing for the purpose of the accountability calculations.
No, the rule relates to counting students as proficient or higher for the purpose of the report card calculations. It does not place a limit on the number of students who may be assessed using the alternate assessment. It is up to each student's IEP team to decide which assessment, standard or alternate, is more appropriate to use and the decision should be made based solely on what is in the best interest of the student.
When the rule was first adopted, the U.S. Department of Education (USDOE) granted waivers to several states, including Ohio, so that districts could include more than 1% of their scores in the report card calculations. The federal waiver no longer exists and most districts are now limited to counting just 1% of their tests. The Ohio Department of Education does allow special schools with charters to serve high percentages of students with significant cognitive disabilities to apply for a waiver from the cap. This waiver can be found here and it is limited to those few schools that hold special charters.
ODE recognizes that small LEAs face unique challenges and there may be cases where a district or school is so small that it does not have enough students to count even one or two alternate assessments. To address this issue, the agency has created a business rule to allow LEAs that have fewer than 1,000 students in its tested grades to include up to ten (10) alternate assessment scores in its report card calculations. LEAs with more than 1,000 students will be limited to 1% of their total tested population. Small LEAs do not need to apply for a waiver, the accountability calculations are configured to automatically include up to ten passing scores in cases where the total tested population is smaller than 1000 students.
ODE begins the process by calculating the number of demotions that must be made within each subject area. The tests within each subject are then grouped by performance level (Proficient, Accelerated and Advanced), and demotions are made on a random basis starting with the group scoring Proficient. If all the Proficient tests are demoted and the cap still is not reached, Accelerated tests will be randomly demoted. Advanced tests will be demoted only if the cap still is not met after all tests in the other two passing ranges are demoted. This process works to ensure that the highest scores are preserved for use in the Performance Index calculation.
No, within each performance level, tests are chosen at random for demotion. There is no mechanism for a district to "exchange" one test for another.
Federal guidance issued by the U.S. Department of Education in December 2008 requires states to include all students, including those on an IEP, in the graduation rate calculation. Students who remain in school for longer than four years are in the denominator of the calculation, but not the numerator, and are not considered on-time graduates for the purposes of the graduation rate.
No, the term "dropout" is used to identify a student who leaves high school without earning a high school diploma. Students who take longer than four years to graduate are considered to be "not-on-time" graduates for the purposes of the cohort graduation rate calculation, but they are not counted as dropouts.
The Gifted Value-Added measure includes all students that have been identified as gifted in math and/or superior cognitive ability for the state math assessments, and reading and/or superior cognitive ability for the state reading assessments.
The Gifted Value-Added measure requires at least six (6) identified students in a single grade and subject to generate a Value-Added grade. For example, a school with six gifted students in fourth grade math would receive a report, but another school with three gifted students in fourth grade math and three gifted students in fifth grade math would not.
The Value-Added analysis for math and reading follows a cohort of students from one grade to the next, and is based on the change in achievement from one year to the next. A cohort of students is based on the students' tested grade (rather than enrolled grade), and the cohort moves up one grade every year. However, when a student follows a non-traditional grade configuration, such as skipping a grade in a subject, the usual expectation of growth is no longer valid and applicable.
The accelerated student is considered two different students in two different cohorts in the Value-Added model: one student from prior to the acceleration and one student from the acceleration on. The Value-Added report for a particular subject/grade/year only uses the test scores from students in a given cohort, even when students in the cohort have missing test scores, so the student must be considered (from a modeling perspective) two different students in two different cohorts. Note, this rule is subject-specific, so students who are accelerated in math but not reading are in two different cohorts: one where their reading scores and math scores prior to acceleration are connected and one where their math scores post-acceleration are connected.
Yes, a student can be in multiple relevant subgroups for the Value-Added measures. A student who is identified as gifted in math would be in the Gifted Value-Added measure and that same student would also be included in the Students with Disabilities Value-Added grade if he has an IEP.
The Value-Added grades are based on the Gain Index, which is obtained by taking the Mean Gain and dividing that number by the Standard Error. The Gain Index is displayed in the table shown on the Report Card Progress page. The EVAAS site displays the Mean Gain and the Standard Error. ODE is working on updates to the EVAAS website to clarify these displays.
House Bill 555 requires up to three years of data to be used in the Value-Added calculation. The numbers reported in the Advanced Report show students across multiple years when such data are relevant.
The AMO scoring calculation is outlined in Ohio's approved ESEA Flexibility Waiver. A subgroup that is being evaluated for the first time cannot earn points unless it meets the AMO target. In subsequent years if the subgroup continues to be evaluated and shows improvement, it may receive points for closing its achievement gap.
ODE's main line is available toll free at 1-877-644-6338. You can also e-mail Accountability questions directly to firstname.lastname@example.com or more general questions can be directed to email@example.com.

High Hopes for Lady Rangers
Coach Brad Urie enters his 4th year as the Lake Region Girls Varsity Soccer Coach, and he and his team plan to hit the ground running. Long gone are the days of double-digit defeats and small numbers in the win column. This is a new era for girls' soccer at Lake Region. Coming off a year where he saw his Lady Rangers finish with the best overall season in school history, he and his team know the expectations are high, but Urie also says "it'll take hard work, practice, and determination, to compete with the teams in the Mountain League."The girls' team, along with the rest of Lake Region, is moving up to Division 2 for their sports programs, but they are staying in the Mountain League, meaning they will continue to play the majority of the same teams. "The Mountain League is a tougher league then most people realize. We will have to make some adjustments, but I believe we have the talent and capability to compete with any of the teams in Division 2," said Urie.After losing 6 seniors to graduation, Coach Urie is returning 10 players from the previous season. His team will be led by his 6 seniors from the Class of 2012: Desirae Colorado, Miranda Beaudry, Hannah Dean, Caylin Gallup, Kaitlyn Wright, and Callie-Rae Cashin. Coach Urie believes that his team "will have plenty of speed up front, and he will have 3 Freshman and 2 Sophomores playing significant minutes." Another key loss for the team is veteran goaltender Stephanie Merchant, who elected to forgo her senior year with the club.When asked about his expectations for the upcoming season Coach Urie was very stern in his response. "We want to have a better year than the year before. We are going to play one game at a time and do our best. Nothing less than winning in the playoffs is acceptable to these girls. That's what we want, that's what I want and that's what our fans want. They are not here to go through the season and take an early exit [from the playoffs]."The Lady Ranger's open their season with a Division 2 match-up at home against the Lyndon Vikings on Wednesday, September 7th at 4:30.

Zach Braff's Movie Kickstarter Is Now Fully Funded
Good work, <em>Garden State </em>fans.
It only took four days for the world's nostalgic millennials to fulfill Zach Braff's dream of making a Garden State follow-up with their money. On Saturday afternoon, the Kickstarter Braff set up to fund his autobiographical-sounding Wish I Was Here reached its $2 million goal — and there are still 26 days left for people who feel a lot of feelings when they hear the Shins to give the project even more cash. To the 29,081 who have donated as of this second, Braff tweeted, "I will not let you down." Immediately before that, he asked Imogen Heap to "grace us with your talents again," so it seems that he intends to honor that pledge.

Early voting heats up across Nebraska
County election offices across Nebraska are getting a lot of requests for early ballots.
In Nebraska's three largest counties: Lancaster, Sarpy and Douglas, foot traffic has also been steady as people vote in-person.
"Over 17,000 Sarpy County voters have already requested an early ballot be sent to them or have voted in the office," said election commissioner Wayne Bena. "This shatters all previous records for this early in the election season."
Requests have also been heavy in Lancaster County, nearing the 20,000 mark. "Four years ago we had a total of a little over 30,000 early vote ballots," explained Lancaster County Election Commissioner Dave Shively. "I'm sure we will well exceed that number this year with just about two weeks left to go."
In Douglas County, 3,676 people have voted in person. More than 54,774 requests have been submitted for ballots and of those, more than 20,000 have been returned.
County election commissioner Dave Phipps said this already exceeds early voting requests and response during the 2008 general election and he believes it will only grow in the weeks to come.
"We expect early voting to account for a fairly large percentage of the vote for this election. In 2008, approximately 27% of all Douglas County voters voted early," Phipps said. "This year, we expect that number to be somewhere between 35% and 40% of the total vote."
Other counties are also experiencing something of a "boom" when it comes to early voting requests.
"I've got three computers going, and could literally use three more to process all the requests we're receiving," said Hall County Election Commissioner Dale Baker. "We've been getting about 500 a day since it started."
The Lincoln County election commissioner said her office has also sent out 2,000 ballots since early voting started on Oct. 1. The first week was the busiest her office has ever had.
"A surge in early voting signals a probable high turnout for our Nov. 6 election," Secretary of State John Gale said. "While convenience is a factor, early voting shows people have been paying attention and are ready to vote."
He reminded those who wish to cast their ballots early, there are deadlines approaching:
Registered voters can make requests until 4 p.m. Oct. 31 for early voting ballots to be mailed. Nov. 5 is the deadline for in-person early voting at county election offices for registered voters.
The close of polls on Nov. 6 is the deadline for the return of early voting ballots to county election offices, including ballots returned by mail.
"Don't waste your ballot. Early voting in person or by mail should be done well ahead of deadlines to make sure your ballot gets cast and counted," advised Gale.
"Early voting mail-in ballots have been shown to have as high as a 4% rejection rate when envelopes aren't signed, or signed by someone else, or sent in a wrong envelope, or returned due to no postage. So, follow the simple rules, get it done right, and make your ballot count."
Phipps said that in Douglas County, early voting is popular, and continues to be even more so with each passing election.
"After people vote early once, they seem to be more likely to do so again in the future," he said. "It's easy and convenient for voters who don't want to worry about problems such as a busy work schedule, sick children, or being out of town on Election Day."
Requests for early voting ballots can be found on the Secretary of State's website (www.sos.state.ne.gov). Look under "Elections" for "Voter Forms."

Author Notes: This is a lovely recipe which works great for left over potatoes...with a mexican spin. The sweet, spicyness of the chorizo and bacon lift the flavours of the potatoes and sprouts —Kitchen Butterfly
Serves: 4
Patatas Bravas deluxe
(Mini) brussel sprouts, cleaned
Bacon bits
Chorizo, chopped
cooked potatoes, cut into chunks
Little gem lettuce leaves
Chipolte dip
cup plain yogurt
cup creme fraiche
clove garlic, minced
Chipolte sauce, to taste
Salt and pepper to season
- Prepare brussels sprouts for cooking by removing the buds from the stalk. Cut away the stem and then peel and discard the surface leaves that are loosened by cut.
- Place in a steamer on medium heat. Salt and steam for no longer than 5 minutes. These are mini sprouts so they cook quickly. Overcooking changes the colour and releases 'sulphuric odours', which most people hate! Once cooked, take cover off the pan and let cool. If using larger ones,cook for a couple of minutes extra
- While sprouts are cooking, desalt bacon by placing in a bowl and pouring freshly boiled water over it to extract some of the salts. Remove, rinse and squeeze out excess water after 2-3 minutes
- In a dry pan, put chorizo chunks and bacon and let cook till brown and the fat is rendered. Drain oils away and dry with kitchen tissue
- You'll have to cook in batches: So ensure your potatoes, chorizo+bacon and sprouts are divvied up into equal batches
- Heat up a large pan on medium heat and place a teaspoon of butter and a teaspoon of cooking oil. When butter is melted, add potatoes and let cook, tossing about till all sides are brown.
- Add the chorizo and bacon and toss about. Let cook for a minute and then add the pecans and brussel sprouts and let heat through, another minute or two. Take off heat
- To serve: Place 1 or 2 whole lettuce leaves on a plate and spoon the potato mix into it.

Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam recently said it would be "pretty easy" to eliminate wireless contracts if consumers started asking for it, so a Verizon customer and blogger from Wichita, Kansas, started a Change.org petition to get the ball rolling. In his petition, Mike Beauchamp says that "this has the potential to change the entire wireless industry" and he asks others to join his movement.
"I've been a long-time Verizon customer and I don't see myself ever leaving, but I want that choice myself," said Beauchamp. "I don't want them making it for me and imposing stiff penalties if I do decide to leave."
Pre-paid plans are already available on Verizon, but Beauchamp says that is not enough. "Pricing phones so high, sometimes 600 dollars or more, doesn't really make it a true option for most people," he told Change.org on the phone. "The second call to action on my petition is for Verizon to come up with better ways for customers to purchase devices affordably. Whether that's with a payment plan or by some other means, they can do better."
Beaucamp will get his wish on his second call to action because Verizon recently said their device payment plan will be expanded to smartphones later this year.
Part of me finds online petitions kind of silly when customers can just vote with their wallet and switch to a no-contract carrier. T-Mobile recently dropped contracts and started offering installment plans for devices, so there are options available. Verizon customers can also take their devices to Page Plus Cellular and sign up for a no-contract plan on Verizon's network.
Yesterday the petition had 60k signatures, and it quickly jumped to 90k today after it was posted to several tech blogs. That's a small portion of Verizon's 93 million customers, but at least it's a start. If you would like to join the growing list of customers against wireless contracts, then hit up the source link and add your name.

A plant that lives in calcium- rich soil is called
- Calcifuge
- Calciplant
- Limnophyte
- Agarophyte
- Calcicole
Correct Answer: E. Calcicole
Calcicole is a plant that grows well in calcareous soil (lime-rich soil). Calciphile and calciphyte are the other terms by which such a plant is referred. Some plants cannot tolerate more calcium so they are not capable of living in lime-rich soil. Such plants are called calcifuges. Limnophytes are the plants that grow in marshy conditions and in shallow water. Agarophyte is a sea weed from which agar is produced.

The type of mutation that codes for a stop codon is called
- Misscense mutation
- Nonsense mutation
- Silent mutation
- Both A and C
- All of the above
Correct Answer: B. Nonsense mutation
In nonsense mutation, a mutation in the DNA sequence stops the translation and results in an incomplete and non functional protein. It codes for a stop codon. A mutation which causes insertion of different amino acid in the polypeptide chain which results in an altered protein is called as misscense mutation. Silent mutation is a type of mutation where the mutation in DNA will not result in amino acid change.
Question: 7
Which of the following is called as pacemaker?
- SAN (sino-atrial node)
- AVN (atrio-ventricular node)
- Right Ventricle
- Aorta
- Pulmonary vein
Correct Answer: A. SAN (sino-atrial node)
Sino-atrial node is a patch of tissue present in the right upper corner of the right atrium which is responsible for initiating and maintaining the rhythmic contractile activity of the heart. Each wave of excitation begins at this region and acts as stimulus for next wave of excitation and hence SAN is called pacemaker.
Question: 8

At the ObamaCare Improv
The ad hoc business mandate delay is a bid to save the exchanges.
President Obama predicted at the House Democratic retreat on Friday that "10 years from now, five years from now" people will look back on the Affordable Care Act as "a monumental achievement." He's right in the limited sense that, given the delays he has sanctioned so far, it will take years before anyone can tell if it works.
Now that we've had more time to parse this week's announcement of a second delay of the employer mandate, the political reason for the carve-out is becoming clearer. Far from the...

Man accused of writing racist comments indicted
October 24. 2013 1:03AM
CONCORD — The former Concord resident who is accused of writing racist comments in permanent marker on four homes of African immigrants was indicted by the October Merrimack County Grand Jury on a special felony of criminal mischief.
Raymond Stevens, 32, now of 22 Church St., Pembroke, is accused of writing the comments on the siding of homes at 3 Perley St., 35 Downing St., 50 Perley St., and 28 Thompson St.
The indictment alleges Stevens "was substantially motivated because of hostility towards the race and national origin of the victims who lived in said homes."
Stevens is accused of acting purposely in writing the offensive comments in black permanent marker on the homes, causing financial damage in excess of $1,500.
The indictment alleges he committed the criminal mischief on three homes Sept. 18, 2011, and on the fourth home Aug. 5, 2012.
When Stevens was arrested earlier this month, he was only charged with writing on the three homes in 2011, although police said they believed he was responsible for the 2012 writing.
Because his conduct was allegedly motivated by his hostility and hatred for the victims' race and national origin, if he is convicted, he is eligible for enhanced penalties under the special felony offense statute. He could be sentenced to 10 to 30 years in state prison.
At the time of his arrest, police said analysis of Stevens' handwriting on a gun license application tied him to the first three incidents, but that handwriting experts could not conclusively match that graffiti to Stevens' handwriting.
A self-employed tattoo artist who owned The Tattomb tattoo parlor in Nashua, Stevens could enter no plea to the single felony charge at his video arraignment Oct. 15 in 6th Circuit District Court in Concord
Judge M. Kristin Spath set bail at $8,000 cash or surety at that hearing. Following the indictment, Stevens will be arraigned in Merrimack County Superior Court, where new bail may be set.

By Wayne Veysey, Goal.com
Roberto Mancini's public attack on his players paid immediate dividends as Manchester City brushed Chelsea aside 2-0 at Etihad Stadium.
The champion's dominant display was rewarded with second-half goals of real quality from Yaya Toure and substitute Carlos Tevez.
Toure's 63rd-minute opener came shortly after Joe Hart had atoned for clumsily conceding a penalty by launching himself to his right to keep out Frank Lampard's spot kick.
Tevez sealed the win five minutes from time to help City pull clear of Chelsea in second place and reduce Manchester United's lead at the top back to 12 points.
Such is the dominance of the runaway leaders that the main fight is for the minor places but City demonstrated that it is not a completely diminished force by overwhelming its main rival for the runner-up spot.
City has fallen short in the goalscoring department this season and the solution of Mancini, who had criticized a number of his players in an interview earlier in the week, was to support spearhead Sergio Aguero with David Silva and a battery of midfielders. Yaya Toure, James Milner and Javi Garcia were supplemented by Jack Rodwell, starting his first match since the 3-1 home win over QPR on Sept. 1.
Chelsea, starting just 64 hours after its draw in Prague on Thursday night, rang the changes, with Demba Ba returning to the side in place of Fernando Torres.
The visitors looked jaded in the first half as City poured forward in droves and at times threatened to tear them apart.
The hosts' main tactical ploy was to target the right side of Chelsea's defense and free up either Gael Clichy or David Silva on the overlap to launch a cross on to the head of one of their powerful on-rushing midfielders.
Rodwell, in particular, made a series of excellent runs into the box and his height was a real danger to the opposition. The former Everton man could have had a hat trick in the opening half but Chelsea held firm through a combination of last-gasp defending, the safe hands of Cech and some mixed finishing.
Five minutes into the second half, a Chelsea long ball sent Ba bearing down on the City goal. Despite being covered by Kolo Toure, Hart came rushing out to harass the Senegal striker, who left his foot in and was taken down by the England No. 1.
The award of a penalty was debatable but it could easily have been avoided by Hart. With the criticism of Mancini no doubt ringing in his ears, the keeper atoned for his error of judgement by flinging himself low to his right to keep out Lampard's spot kick.
Ten minutes later, City's supporters had even more reason to celebrate. Yaya Toure collected the ball from Silva in the box, surged past two defenders and, confronted by the presence of Gary Cahill, opened up his body to guide a wonderfully composed finish past the grasp of Cech. It was a quite stunning goal, combining the power of a bulldozer with the precision of a surgeon.
The game opened up as Chelsea searched for an equalizer but Benitez's team were too sloppy in possession to cause City much angst.
The home side were rewarded for their perseverance with a second goal after 85 minutes. Silva was once again the goal-maker, laying on the ball for Tevez to line himself up for a thunderbolt strike past Cech.

MSG Varsity- All Hudson Valley team
Posted Friday, December 09, 2011 by cablevision
2011 All-Hudson Valley football team
Follow the latest news on Hudson Valley football on Twitter: @MSGVarsityHVC
The MSG Varsity Hudson Valley regional staff selected the top players, coaches and teams from the 2011 season across the entire Hudson Valley – including all of Section 1, Section 9 and the Catholic and private schools in the region.
Below are the award winners, as well as the first-team all-stars. Tweet your comments to @MSGVarsityHVC or email Kevin Devaney Jr. at email@example.com
MSG Varsity: Hudson Valley Football Awards
Player of the Year: Austin Taps, Stepinac
If there's been a lineman worthy of an MVP, it's Taps. The Mahopac native has been a rock on both sides of the ball for Stepinac the last two seasons. As a tight end, he was the area's best blocker this fall, while also catching 22 passes, including four touchdowns. Defensively was where he truly dominated. Despite double teams, he had 83 tackles and 10 sacks as the Crusaders followed up last year's AA championship with a berth in the AAA title game.
Coach of the Year: Jim Moran, Dobbs Ferry
It wasn't a bad first season as head coach for Moran. Taking over the storied program, Moran led the Eagles to their fourth state championship in school history. The run was highlighted by wins over Bronxville in the Section 1 final and dramatic state semifinal win over Hoosick Falls, which was the best coaching performance in the Hudson Valley this season.
Team of the Year: Rye Country Day
The Wildcats achieved every goal they set this season and staged the best year of football in school history. Under fifth-year coach John Calandros, Rye won its first ever outright Fairchester League championship and its first NEPSAC bowl victory. The senior-laden squad didn't play a bad half of football season, dominating opponents by an average of 38-9.
Quarterback: Josh Oliver, Poughkeepsie
The senior quarterback was marvelous every time he stepped out on to the field. Running the Pioneers' no-huddle spread offense, Oliver had nearly 2,600 yards of total offense and 36 touchdowns, leading Poughkeepsie to its first Section 1 Class A championship. He ran for 1,389 yards and 20 scores and passed for 1,186 yards and 14 scores, and had at least 175 yards combined in every single game.
Running back: Saxon Smith, Chester
Saxon Smith ran for 3,047 yards on the season, a Section 9 record, and the fourth best rushing total in state history. Besides all the yardage, Smith also broke the Section 9 touchdown record with 49. Smith was the main cog in a Chester team that won its first state playoff game and advanced to Syracuse as the Class D state finalist.
Running back: Christian Conway, Sr., Bronxville
The senior capped off a remarkable two-year career with 1,885 yards and scored 30 touchdowns, leading the Broncos to the Section 1 Class C final. Conway, who'll play at Yale with his twin brother Jackson, had 1,617 yards and 23 touchdowns as a junior, leading Bronxville to a state championship.
Running back: Caleb Gilligan-Evans, Stepinac
You could make a case for Gilligan-Evans as the most accomplished player in the history of Stepianc football. The four-year starter at fullback piled up 3,291 career rushing yards and 31 touchdowns, played in three Catholic league championship games, won a title and played in this year's AAA final. Gilligan-Evans will play at Yale next fall.
Wide receiver: Quincy Vasser, Sr., Nyack
All you needed to see from Vassar was his performance in the Section 1 All-Star game where he completely dominated the second half in South's victory. A tremendous pass-catcher, Vassar is even better as a defensive end where he requires constant double teams. The 6-foot-4 Vasser might be the most college-ready play in the section.
Wide receiver: Vinny Narog, Sr., Stepinac
Over the last two seasons, few receivers have been quite as productive as Narog. The 6-foot-2, 175-pounder caught 24 passes for 655 yards and seven touchdowns, while also recording 90 tackles, 3.5 sacks and an interception on defense. Narog
Offensive line: Mikal Myers, Sr., Newburgh
The UConn-bound senior had a season to remember after leading the Goldbacks on both sides of the ball. Myers was a bull on defense and dominant on offense as he led Newburgh too its first Section 9 championship since 2003. Myers is sure to be all-state for the third year in a row.
Offensive line: Ryan Sanders, Sr., John Jay-Cross River
The key to the Indians' run to the Section 1 Class A final was the play of their offensive line, which was anchored by Sanders. The imposing 6-foot-4, 240-pounder got better every week and showed an ability to pass protect and lead block. Sanders was even more unstoppable as a defensive end for a John Jay squad that limited Somers and Rye to seven points combined in the first two rounds of the playoffs.
Offensive line: Kameron Tedder, Sr., Iona Prep
The explosive Iona Prep offense hinged on the pass-block ability of Tedder, a freakishly-athletic 6-foot-3, 235-pounder. Tedder was a special talent on both sides of the line. Iona ran much of its offense behind him and teams shied from his area on defense.
Offensive line: Joe Liable, Sr., North Rockland
At the center of every North Rockland championship squad is a dominant offensive line and this year was no different. And the anchor of it all was Liable, who has exceptional feet and is so strong in the trenches. North Rockland's offensive line really hunkered down in the second half and was a big reason it beat New Rochelle in the semifinals.
Offensive line: John Brennan, Sr., Croton-Harmon
A four-year starter, Brennan turned himself into one of the area's top two-way linemen. The lean 6-foot-3, 230-pounder, Brennan was a standout left tackle on a Croton team that ran for 3,321 yards and 43 touchdowns en route to the Class B state final. He also led the team in tackles with 96 and sacks with 10.
Athlete: Ryan Spelman, Sr., Monroe-Woodbury
Spelman accounted for the majority of the Crusaders offense this year and put up monster numbers for the second season in a row. No number was bigger than 563, Spelman's total yards in a 61-28 win over Warwick early in the season. He had over 419 yards on the ground in that game.
Defensive line: Austin Taps, Sr., Stepinac * Player of the Year
Defensive line: A.J. Wolf, Sr., Hackley
There might not have been a more versatile player in the Hudson Valley this season than Wolf. The Duke University-bound star played on the offensive line, fullback, defensive end, linebacker, long snapper and kicker. The 6-foot-4, 250-pound Wolf had 98 tackles, three sacks, two fumble recoveries and also ran for four touchdowns.
Defensive line: Robert Johnson, Sr., Poughkeepsie
No team that faced Poughkeepsie this season will soon forget Johnson, who was a nightmare matchup for opposing linemen. The 6-foot, 295-pound nose tackle he 51 tackles and completely closed off the middle of the field for opposing offenses. Teams specifically had to game plan for Johnson, who saw constant double teams.
Defensive line: Lance McDowdell, Sr., Mount Vernon
If he's not the best defensive player in Section 1, McDowdell was certainly the most intimidating. The 6-foot-4, 295-pounder continued his development as a football player, leading the Knights in tackles and sacks (12). The future for McDowdell could eventually be major Division I.
Linebacker: Joe Simolacaj, Sr., Rye
Few people understand the amount of injuries and pain Simolacaj played through this season. The third-year starter was devastating hitter on defense but was at his best in the biggest game of Rye's season, rushing for 135 yards on 34 carries in a win over rival Harrison. Simolacaj's leadership was also a big reason Rye went from 0-3 to making the Section 1 playoffs.
Linebacker: Bobby Henderson, Sr., John Jay-East Fishkill
The rugged toughness of Henderson became the identity of the blue-collar Patriots, who advanced to the Section 1 Class AA final and lost in overtime to North Rockland. The 6-foot, 215-pound Henderson was a workhorse on both sides of the ball. He took over 100 carries in an 11-day span in the postseason, highlighted by a 40-carry, 200-yard effort against Arlington in the quarterfinals.
Linebacker: Danny Caiola, Sr., John Jay-Cross River
The third-year starter emerged as one of the best two-way threats in the Hudson Valley this season. A model of consistency on both sides of the ball, Caiola also was John Jay's best defensive player at linebacker. Caiola also ran for 1,221 yards on 196 carries (6.2 avg.) and scored 10 touchdowns, leading the Indians to the Section 1 Class A championship game.
Defensive back: Frank Tucek, Sr., Clarkstown South
The standout two-way star capped a special three-year career with 869 yards rushing and nine touchdowns while also showing he can be an elite lead-blocker for fullback Thomas Lent. Tucek also led South in tackles with 86 and interceptions with four.
Defensive back: Justin Ciero, Sr., Horace Greeley
While the Quakers' season hit some bumps in the second half, Ciero still had an all-star calibert senior year. Perhaps the section's best pure talent as a quarterback on offense, Ciero took a starting role in the secondary and showed his prowess there, as well. At quarterback, he went for over 1,000 yards rushing and passing
Defensive back: Jesse Mainiero, Sr., Croton-Harmon
Defensive back: Kevin Jocelyn, Sr., Ramapo
No player in Section 1 had the burst or breakaway speed of Jocelyn. The electrifying veteran showed it as a runner, receiver, kick returner and defensive back, and showcased all of his talents in the Section 1 all-star game where he earned MVP honors. Jocelyn piled up, 1,343 yards rushing and scored 14 touchdowns for the Gryphons.
Athlete: Garfield Heslop, Sr., Stepinac
On a team with elite talent, Heslop sometimes got overshadowed. But the 6-3, 200-pound defensive end/linebacker was so consistently good this season for the Crusaders. He was second on the team in tackles with 96, highlighted by a incredible effort against Xaverian in the semifinals. Heslop had eight sacks, three interceptions, and three fumble recoveries to help Stepinac get to the CHSFL title game.
Kicker: Connor O'Sullivan, Sr., Pearl River
It would be far-fetched to consider O'Sullivan one of the most valuable players in Section 1 this season. He was over 80-percent on touchbacks on kickoffs, booted nine field goals and averaged 38 yards per punt. O'Sullivan kicked a game-winning field in the final seconds as Pearl River beat Nyack for the first time in 25 years, and connected on four field goals in a 20-15 win over Spring Valley.
Kick returner: Ke'Shaun Stallworth, Sr., Pelham
The explosive third-year starter saved his best season for last. Stallworth ran for 1,008 yards on 138 carries (7.3 avg.) and 14 touchdowns, leading Pelham to a solid 6-3 season in its first year in Class A. His best game was against Ossining when he ran for 238 yards and three total touchdowns in a 44-41 win.

Cows slowly chew grass under the rays of County Down's warm sun. They're in the shadow of a saint, and they don't even know it
Across the road sits Saul Church and its amber-colored round tower. It's a modest place – no frills, no grandeur, no gilded altars or lavish ceilings. It's modest because St Patrick, who it was built to commemorate, had a modest life. And if you want proof, jog back 1,700 years to this same spot where he established his first church... in a barn.
But we're getting ahead of ourselves, because long before Patrick was a saint and well before he was a savior, he was a slave.
The Lord is my shepherd
Just like the cows, the sheep on the side of Slemish Mountain have no idea this is where Ireland's patron saint found fortitude. Kidnapped from his home on Britain's coast, a teenage Patrick was bonded to slavery on Slemish.
Imagine it: ripped from family and home as a teen, deposited on a rocky outcrop without a soul in sight, and subjected to rain, sleet and snow. Patrick did all he could do, and turned to prayer.
However he did it, Ireland's patron saint managed to leave a glow of serenity behind on this mountain, as well as on the vastness of County Down's pastoral heartland.
What dreams may come
A successful escape took Patrick home, but dreams plagued him. The pagan land of Ireland demanded his return, and so he came back to turn Ireland's population from pagan to Christian.
This time, though, it was at his own pace. Under the elbow of County Down and up into Strangford Lough, if Patrick needed a fresh impression of Ireland, he found it here. He sailed into a scene of scattered islands, rocky nooks and green fields.
But Patrick wasn't here for the scenery. He had work to do.
Kings, cathedrals and a crozier
Patrick's busy schedule took him to the site of what is now St Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin (so named after he was said to have baptized converts here); and to the Rock of Cashel in Tipperary (where Patrick is said to have baptized the King of Munster by accidentally putting the spiked end of his crozier through the king's foot).
It took him to Lough Derg in Donegal to found a monastery; and to the Hill of Slane in County Meath, where he lit his Paschal fire.
It was on Croagh Patrick, though, where he had an epiphany. On scree slopes and with views of Clew Bay, Patrick spent 40 days and 40 nights.
And St Patrick isn't the only one to have found solace on the peak. Each year, thousands of visitors climb the mountain for a slice of the clarity the saint himself sought.
Some do it barefoot. Some find answers. All find peace.
Standing over the smooth stone that denotes the saint's final resting place at Down Cathedral, it hits you – Patrick left a legacy. His life was epic, and Ireland clings close to his memory to this day, with legends, rich heritage and one of the best festivals in the world.

A mechanical bowel obstruction is a partial or complete blockage in the intestine. It can happen at any point along the intestine tract but it is more common in the small bowel. The small bowel is the upper part of the intestines and the large bowel is the lower part.
When the bowel is blocked, food and liquid cannot pass through. Over time, food, liquid, and gas build up and cause pressure and pain. Some obstructions, when left untreated, can cut off the flow of blood to the intestine. This can lead to death of the intestine tissue and serious illness.
The bowel is a muscular tube that is constantly moving to push food through. Blockage may be caused by something blocking the inside of the tube or something that stops the intestine from working well.
Most small bowel blockages are due to scar tissue. This tissue connects the bowel to the abdominal wall or other organs. This makes it hard for the bowel to work as needed. Most large bowel obstructions are caused by tumors.
Other causes of bowel obstructions include:
- Hernia—part of intestine pokes through abdominal wall and squeezes intestine shut
- Bowel inflammation or swelling
- Foreign matter in the intestines
- Impacted feces—bulk of feces becomes trapped in the rectum
- Volvulus—twisting of the intestine
- Intussusception —when the intestine pulls inward into itself , most common cause in children
- Scar tissue from a previous abdominal or pelvic surgery, particularly gynecologic or gastrointestinal operations
Risk Factors
A number of intestinal conditions can increase the risk of a bowel obstruction such as:
- Previous gastrointestinal or gynecologic surgery—can lead to scarring
- Diverticulitis
- Crohn's disease
- Hirschsprung's disease —in infants and children
- Cancer of the gastrointestinal tract
Symptoms of a bowel obstruction include:
- Abdominal pain
- Abdominal swelling
- Abdominal cramps
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Severe constipation
- Bloating
- Fever
- Foul breath odor
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. A stethoscope will be placed on your abdomen to listen for bowel sounds. Absent, or abnormal signs may suggest a bowel obstruction.
Images will be needed to confirm the obstruction. This can be done with one or more of the following:
Bowel obstructions can be serious, even fatal. It will need hospitalization to provide support such as:
- IV fluids to stop dehydration
- Antibiotics to help clear any infections
The plan to remove the blockage will depend on where it is and what is causing it. Possible treatments include:
- Nasogastric tube—a tube is passed through your nose and down into the stomach. Fluids that have become trapped can be removed through this tube.
- Removal of fecal impaction—Feces trapped in the rectum can be manually loosened and removed.
- Endoscopy—A thin, lighted tube is inserted through the rectum and into the large intestine to straighten out the intestines.
Surgery may be needed to:
- Remove scar tissue, tumors, foreign matter, and other causes of the blockages
- Repair hernias
- Remove damaged tissue
Prevention of bowel obstruction depends on the cause. Some bowel obstructions cannot be prevented. The following actions may help reduce your risk of a bowel obstruction:
- Treat hernias promptly before they can cause a blockage.
Decrease the chance of constipation by:
- Eating plenty of fiber-rich foods
- Drinking plenty of fluids
- Exercising regularly

Friday, November 04, 2011 - Honza, Dima and Paul - Duty Bound
Honza, Dima and Paul - Duty Bound
Dima Lukin is a great guy, who we set up for a Duty Bound with Paul Fresh and Honza Copak. The scene starts with Paul and Honza celebrating Honza's birthday. After blowing out the candles on his cake Honza is presented with his present. He is invite to remove a cover and there is the present. It is Dmitry, strapped to a upright turntable, blindfolded and gagged too. Honza and Paul start to feel Dima, and turn the table so that he is now horizontal. The guys tease him somewhat, tweaking his nipples and slapping him. Paul starts groping Dima's cock in his jockstrap, and pulls it out. It is rock hard already and Honza takes it in his mouth, and bites on it, and chews, a little, on the foreskin. Paul and Honza then undo their pants a get their dicks out. Honza needs to piss and lets it go alover Dima's foot, while Paul shoves his rampant cock in Dima's mouth and starts to fuck his face. Paul then takes some of the birthday cake and eat it, shoving some of it into Dima's mouth, and the pushing his cock in too. He fucks Dima's mouth with cake smeared all over his face. The they swing the table round so Honza can fuck Dimas mouth too. Meanwhile Paul cuts the jock strap off Dima and watches as Honza fucks his face. Turning the table again so that Dima is upside down Honza drops to his knees for more sucking of his ...

Our Coming Soon Set Preview
Roman Duzda is a really handsome guy and we moved quite quickly to sign him up for a Czech Up. We pulled in Dr Daniel Avedon and Sister Gregor Bortel to look after Roman. Daniel and Gregor are in their medical suite waiting for the first patient of the day. A knock on the door heralds the arrival of Roman, assisted by a passer by, who has found him, rather drunk, laying on the road. Roman certainly seems to be more than a little inebriated and Dr Daniel decides that he must do an examination. So they remove Roman's clothes and then put him in the shower, to clean him up some. Daniel takes a hose to wash Roman, who already has a rock hard cock. After washing his front Roman is made to turn around and bend over, so that they guys can wash his ass too. His big fat cock is hanging down, and needs to be washed too. So Roman stands up and the guys wash his throbbing dick. Gregor is clearly very impressed with Roman's cock and starts to suck on it, taking it deep in his mouth. Having had a good suck on that cock Gregor grabs it in his hand and leads Roman back into the surgery. Daniel then begins a fuller inspection, and finds that Roman's wrist hurts and needs to be bandaged. Gregor though is more interested in Roman's cock and starts to suck it again. Daniel takes that as a cue and starts to suck on Roman's nipples before taking a turn at sucking his hard cock. He then climbs up so that Roman can suck on his cock as well. It seems that Roman is accomplished at sucking cock and soon he is taking turns on Daniel's and Gregor's. Next they turn there attention to Roman's ass, and both Gregor and Daniel shove their gloved fingers into his hole, before doing a more formal internal exam. Next they decide that Roman should be pushed further and Daniels throbbing cock is pushed into his tight hole, as he sucks on Gregor's dick. Roman certainly takes it very well indeed, and wants to feel Gregor in his hole too. So they change positions and Roman sits right down on Gregor. He really works his hole over that cock and rides up and down on it. Gregor is feeling that tight ass wrapped around his dick and soon is ready to cum, so he quickly moves to Roman's chest and shoots a big load. Roman sucks the spent cock in his mouth and sucks it as he blows his own load. The guys all then kiss to bring a very nice scene to an end.

My bad foot got so bad during my trip to Berlin, that I finally bit the bullet and decided to have it operated on. I've been debating this operation for years and years. The last time I consulted surgeon was in 2007. I went back to him, and he said he felt he was no longer competent to do the operation. That didn't make me feel the greatest. He referred me to a surgeon at Prague's largest hospital. I went there for a consultation two days ago. The surgeon was not only young, and good looking, he was obviously very competent and spoke English perfectly. He went over all of the possible procedures and the risks of each. At an attempt at humor, I asked him where he'd learned to speak English so well. He told me he'd lived in Scotland for a year. I replied, 'well they haven't spoken English in Scotland for years.' No response. (You might recall that Apple's new personal assistant Siri cannot understand 'Scottish.') He told me to think it over and let him know if I decide to do the operation. Five minutes after leaving his office, I decided to go ahead with the operation. He'll operate "at Christmastime." I don't know whether he means Christmas Day or right around that time. So, if I pass all of the pre-op physicals, I'll be laid out for awhile around the holiday season. Recovery time from the operation is about three months. I figured this is a good time to go for the operation because, if this year is anything like last year, we'll be up to our asses in snow in Prague. If all goes well, I should be dancing the light fandango buy summer time.
Today we launch our new site str8hell.com. The name sort of says it all. Just a week ago we filmed the premiere episode for the new site with Rado and Martin. Today, totally by chance I prepared a sneak preview, and THEN I found out the set was going live today. That was luck. Hope you enjoy the sneak and then will go over to the new site and see the real thing. I'll also be preparing a long documentary that will be posted on the new site in HD.
My pick for this week's Casting Couch is Dmitry Karnik.
