Defense hopes position changes are answer
Michael Bryan | Friday, October 30, 2009
After weeks of struggling in pass coverage that concluded with 380 yards through the air for Matt Barkley and USC, the Notre Dame secondary needed some changes.
Beginning with the Boston College game and leading into this week's game against Washington State in San Antonio, the Irish made personnel changes on the depth chart.
Junior Harrison Smith, who had been the starter at free safety, moved down to outside linebacker and also played as a nickel back against the Eagles. Smith had four tackles, including one tackle for a loss and a forced fumble in his new role.
"He played significantly better," coach Charlie Weis. "He's had some good production in the secondary, it's just that his confidence has gotten a little bit shaken, so we moved him down into a comfort zone to regain his confidence."
Following the Boston College game, Smith was listed as a co-starter at the Sam linebacker position with Darius Fleming, who has frequently moved to defensive end in nickel packages.
Smith said his experience last season at outside linebacker made the move an easy transition. "I've been there before. I mean I played safety the first half of this year, but I'm using last year's experience," Smith said. "You do a lot of the same stuff and you blitz a lot, so it's not too different."
Smith said he was comfortable with the change and could rotate between positions.
"At this point, wherever the coaches want me to play is where I'm going to play, so I'm fine with that."
With Smith moving to linebacker for the foreseeable future, senior Sergio Brown has taken over the starting job at free safety. Brown had been primarily used as a nickel back in coverage and blitzing off the edge.
"[Harrison Smith] sort of flip-flopped with Sergio," Weis said. "With Sergio going back into his positions and Harrison going down there working at Sam along with Darius and those other guys."
Defensive coordinator Jon Tenuta said the change benefits both Brown and Smith.
"Harrison, the first time he got in there he knocked the ball loose. The guy's a tremendous athlete and I'm going to use him more and more because he's an outstanding blitzer," Tenuta said. "Sergio did a good job, he's been the nickel for us from two years and playing in space so the alignment is a little different at times, but he did a good job."
Brown had four tackles, a forced fumble and a pass breakup against the Eagles.
Also seeing significant time at free safety was sophomore Jamoris Slaughter, who came in at times for Brown. Slaughter has seen time at both the corner and safety positions early in his career.
"Jamoris is a guy that we're going to cross train and cross train at both corner and safety this week. We're going to look at him in both positions, you know, because he's been such a sound tackler," Weis said before the game against Boston College. "So we're going to take a good look at seeing if we can't get him on the field some. Not as a starter but we're going to see if we can't work him there."
At the cornerback position, junior Gary Gray has solidified his role as a starter alongside sophomore Robert Blanton. Gray had a crucial interception in the fourth quarter against Boston College.
"I think Gary has played more because he was the one guy that recently that as he started to get some time has been really competing for the ball," Weis said. "I think that that one of the areas that, you know, I've been saying we need to be competing for the ball and Gary's been competing for it."
With the Irish currently 117th in the nation in pass defense and allowing 282 yards per game, Tenuta and the Notre Dame secondary hope the changes show results.

Months after a scathing audit prompted city leaders to sever funding for the Raleigh Business and Technology Center, the city council has tightened its oversight on grants to nonprofits.
The council approved the new grant process last week for the $3.8 million in grants provided to dozens of arts and human services organizations, from the Carolina Ballet to the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle. New controls are aimed at preventing a repeat of the scandal at the Southeast Raleigh business incubator, where financial problems weren't discovered for several years.
The business and technology center was set up by the city and several partners in 2000 to nurture small minority-owned businesses. The city audit, released in July, found unexplained cashier's checks and payments to the incubator's tenants, and they discovered that the agency's nonprofit status had been revoked. Bob Robinson, the incubator's longtime director, resigned after auditors found he had drawn $65,000 in teller checks from the incubator. Police are now investigating possible fraud, and the agency has left its city-owned building.
Under the new rules, groups receiving $25,000 or more in grants must provide copies of an annual audit. The incubator's auditors had found annual losses of up to $200,000 dating to 2007, but there's no record those reports reached city hall until this year.
"We review the audits, and we look very carefully at the CPAs that provide those audits," assistant city manager Dan Howe said.
The city will now put a red flag on any troubling audit findings, Howe said, and the information will be provided to the city commission that reviews grants.
"It may be that they're on a watch list, so if they don't improve that problem over the next 12 months, they will not be on the list" for city funding, Howe explained.
In addition to audit reports, all nonprofits – regardless of funding level – must submit copies of their annual IRS reports, known as 990 forms.
That requirement could pose a problem for at least one current grant recipient. The African American Cultural Festival – which puts on a street fair each summer – has not filed forms in several years, and its nonprofit status has been revoked, according to IRS records. The organization did not return calls seeking comment; it received $75,000 from the city this year.
Nonprofits also won't get their funding at the beginning of the fiscal year anymore. "In most cases, payments are made by reimbursement" after receiving receipts, Howe said.
Among other requirements: Nonprofits will have annual contracts with the city, they'll file quarterly reports on their work, and they'll get annual in-person inspections from city staff members.
Changes are also afoot for the nonprofits that receive the majority of their annual budgets from city dollars. Those organizations will either have their funding gradually reduced to about 25 percent of their total budget, or they'll be folded into city hall.
"It might be more efficiently operated as a function of a city department instead of us paying a third-party operator to do it," Howe said.
That change would affect at least two nonprofits, the Southeast Raleigh Assembly and the Raleigh Historic Development Commission. The assembly received more than 70 percent of its funding from tax dollars in 2012; it was originally a department within city government charged with aiding residents of Southeast Raleigh.
The agency's director, Rita Anita Linger, did not return a call seeking comment about the city's new policy.
The historic commission operates as a separate nonprofit, but its board is appointed by the city council, and city employees run its day-to-day operations.
The grant application process for the next fiscal year will begin in the coming months.

PITTSBURGH, June 4, 2014 – Even before conception, a son's vulnerability for alcohol use disorders could be shaped by a father who chronically drinks to excess, according to a new animal study from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. The findings, published online Wednesday in PLOS ONE, show male mice that were chronically exposed to alcohol before breeding had male offspring that were less likely to consume alcohol and were more sensitive to its effects, providing new insight into inheritance and development of drinking behaviors.
Previous human studies indicate that alcoholism can run in families, particularly father to son, but to date only a few gene variants have been associated with Alcohol Use Disorder and they account for only a small fraction of the risk of inheriting the problem, said senior investigator Gregg E. Homanics, Ph.D., professor of anesthesiology and pharmacology & chemical biology, Pitt School of Medicine.
"We examined whether a father's exposure to alcohol could alter expression of the genes he passed down to his children," Dr. Homanics said. "Rather than mutation of the genetic sequence, environmental factors might lead to changes that modify the activity of a gene, which is called epigenetics. Our mouse study shows that it is possible for alcohol to modify the dad's otherwise normal genes and influence consumption in his sons, but surprisingly not his daughters."
In the study, he and lead author Andrey Finegersh, M.D./Ph.D. student in the Department of Pharmacology & Chemical Biology graduate program, chronically exposed male mice over five weeks to intermittent ethanol vapor, leading to blood alcohol levels slightly higher than the legal limit for human drivers. Then, they mated them to females who had not been exposed to alcohol.
Compared to those of ethanol-free sires, adult male offspring of ethanol-exposed mice consumed less alcohol when it was made available and were less likely to choose to drink it over water. Also, they were more susceptible to alcohol effects on motor control and reduction of anxiety.
"We suspected that the offspring of alcohol exposed sires would have an enhanced taste for alcohol, which seems to be the pattern for humans," Mr. Finegersh said. "Whether the unexpected reduction in alcohol drinking that was observed is due to differences between species or the specific drinking model that was tested is unclear."
The researchers plan to examine other drinking models such as binge drinking, identify how alcohol modifies the genes, and explore why female offspring appear unaffected.
The project was funded by grants AA10422 and AA021632 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, part of the National Institutes of Health.

Mad Dog Lyrics
Artist: Deep Purple
Album: House of Blue Light
look too
long in my
it could be a
big mistake
i'm hanging on a
thread so fine
i need a little space
i shouldn't say but i
know i must
i've had enough of pain
i'm pissed off standing in
the rain
it makes me feel like a mad dog
i got nothing to lose
mad dog
you got nothing i can use
mad dog howling at the moon
a mad dog
i need no friends
i'm on the edge of a broken dream
laughing at the pain but it makes me want to
i should have known she'd be no good
she tore my heart in two but i don't need to talk to
you make me feel like a mad dog
i got nothing to lose
mad dog
you got nothing i can use
mad dog howling at the moon
a mad dog
she said a hard man is good to find
and then she raised a doubt
all that i could give she took
and then she threw me out
well i don't care i don't care anymore
i'm going to lose my grip
i'm going to let it rip

Publishing boss Hugh Hefner is bumping up the release of Lindsay Lohan's sexy Playboy magazine shoot after the full pictorial leaked online weeks before it was due to hit newsstands.
The Mean Girls star, who banked $1 million for the nude spread, had planned to give fans a sneak peek of the Marilyn Monroe-inspired images during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show next Thursday (15Dec11).
But an unauthorised photo of the highly-anticipated cover shot was posted on the internet on Wednesday (07Dec11) - and the complete set of revealing images followed in another unofficial release on Friday (09Dec11).
Among the images, Lohan, wearing just a pair of high heels, is shown posing on all fours on a red couch shaped like a pair of lips, while she is also depicted reclining on a bed with her hands on her breasts.
Hefner brushed off the early unveiling, insisting the Lohan issue "is going to be a true Collector's Edition", but now he's taking action to try and combat the potential loss in sales by rush-releasing the January/February (12) edition of the magazine.
In a post on Twitter.com, he writes, "Because of the interest & the Internet leak, we're releasing the Lindsay Lohan issue early."
A specific release date had yet to be announced as WENN went to press.

Next Previous Table of Contents
The next pages will use a language that is usual among gui developers, for example, the word widget . A widget is everything you see on the screen, a button, a window, a scrollbar, a menubar, etc. As you can see, some widgets even contain other widgets inside of it . From a developer point of view, you can think that every specialized widget inherits a base widget class, that is, the QWidget class.
The layout of widgets is then, the way widgets are placed on the screen, one under another, one beside another, etc.
I'll try to explain the rest of words as they appear.
I'm using in this sources the autoconf/automake applications to generate Makefile files . There are many complex scripts made mainly by Stephan "coolo" Kulow. These scripts have been copied from the standard KDE packages and modified a little to be used in this tutorial.
"make -f Makefile.dist" will generate the configure
script and the Makefile.in files in each directory using the respective
Makefile.am file. To complete the operation, you'll need the autoconf/automake
packages installed on your system. In this step, Stephan makes some magic with
the scripts in order to get automatically some things done instead of having
to explicitly write a bunch of rules in each Makefile.am
When you run
"./configure" the Makefile files are created using
the recently created Makefile.in files as templates.
Now you can really run
"make" to build the binaries.
As you'll read later in the tutorial, some files will have to be preprocessed by the meta object compiler, moc. To use moc, you just have to use a trick, which is to use the following definition in Makefile.am :
The scripts that generate the final Makefile file will parse it and generate rules to create these files using moc.
The final code that process the meta object sources in Makefile is something like the following one :
p3.moc.cpp: $(srcdir)/p3.h $(MOC) $(srcdir)/p3.h -o p3.moc.cpp
Similarly to this, in p6, p7 and p8 it will be needed to use a preprocessor for the DCOP interface of these applications. This is done with the following commands :
dcopidl appIface.h > appIface.kidl dcopidl2cpp --no-stub appIface.kidl
This will generate an appIface.kidl file with a xml definition of the application interface, and a C++ file called appIface_skel.cpp with the skeleton of the Interface ready for you to implement it. If you use to do CORBA programming, you'll probably find this naming scheme of skels and stubs very familiar.
If this tutorial is of any use, after reading it you'll start your own KDE application. If that's the case, you'll probably face new problems which aren't described in these pages, that's why I've put here some notes, addresses, urls, etc that might be useful to get some help.
Qt comes with the best documentation that I've ever seen. Have a look at it whenever you wonder what a class does, or when you want to know if there's a method that does something special that you need.
I have the Qt documentation directory in the bookmark list of konqueror, so that I can access it fast when I need it.
The KDE libraries are not far behind, and also come with a lot of documentation, which you can download from http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/2.0-api/classref/
If you cannot download the docs or don't want to download a big package, you can generate the documentation for yourself from the sources of the kdelibs by using KDoc. KDoc is a documentation generator from special tags in the sources that can generate html output as well as latex, docbook, man, etc.
To use it, first get the kdoc package from the KDE snapshots directory, or from the kdoc homepage at http://www.ph.unimelb.edu.au/~ssk/kde/kdoc.
The commands I use to generate the documentation are the following two:
qt2kdoc -u "http://localhost/~antonio/docs/qt2" -z ~/kdeCVS/qt-copy/html \ -o ~/.kdoc makekdedoc --srcdir ~/kdeCVS/kdelibs/ --outputdir ~/public_html/docs/kde2 \ --url "http://localhost/~antonio/docs/kde2"
Note that I have the Qt sources under $HOME/kdeCVS/qt-copy and the KDElibs sources under $HOME/kdeCVS/kdelibs . I also have a local web server that uses $HOME/public_html as index directory for http://localhost/~antonio . Finally, there's a symbolic link from $HOME/public_html/docs/qt2 pointing to the html directory on the Qt sources .
With the previous commands, kdoc generates over 11 Mb. of documentation under $HOME/public_html/docs/kde2 , which I can access easily using konqueror or kfm by going to http://localhost/~antonio/docs/kde2/<library>
qt2kdoc is a tool that parses the Qt documentation and generates an index that is used when generating the KDE docs with makekdedoc . This way kdoc can create hypertext links from the KDE documentation to the related classes on the Qt docs.
If you want to join KDE, feel free to suscribe to the KDE mailing lists that are most interesting to you.
If you're a programmer, this is most probably email@example.com, if you want to draw icons, you can join the artist team, if you want to translate KDE to a language, you can join the translation team, etc.
All the mailing lists are specified at www.kde.org/contacts.html, you can read there the instructions on how to suscribe.
Also, you can have a look at the developer.kde.org pages, which have very complete information for the KDE developers, including manuals, the documentation (tarred for download), tutorials, etc.
Our styles guru, Mosfet, has a home page which he updates regularly with the latest development news, you can check it at www.mosfet.org
I'd like to make a recomendation to those of you that are looking for an IDE which you don't have to abandon in any moment of the development of an application. KDevelop (which you can find at www.kdevelop.org) may be very useful to start developing a KDE application.
KDevelop is a complete IDE to develop applications (KDE, Qt or console apps), it features syntax higlighting, visual dialog editor, integrated debugger, application templates, integrated CVS support, translation support, icon editor, and many more features.
I wouldn't like to end this introduction without talking about the user interface guide which you can find at the developer.kde.org site.
On the following pages, I won't follow the UI guide as close as I should, in favour of simplicity. I suppose there's no need to say that every KDE developer developing a real application (not a simple tutorial) should read it completely and follow it as close as possible. The reason for this is obvious.
With nothing more to say, let's start the tutorial !

The novel consists of seven major parts, each containing several individual chapters, usually brief, and sometimes composed of almost fragmentary anecdotes or passages of description.
The Hammer of God displays Clarke's habits of generalizing rapidly through events of a character's past or through a century's social and technological changes, and of sketching characters lightly with just enough "qualifications" to suit them to a role in the narrative without offering much background or plot involvement to "round" the characters or produce significant change in them through the conflict.
Fuller character development seems to happen when Clarke works with a coauthor such as Gentry Lee.
Clarke includes historical facts and modern scientific hypotheses about asteroid travel and asteroid impacts on Earth in his narrative. In addition, when portraying Singh's visit to DisneyMars with his wife and daughter, Clarke uses an excerpt from Ray Bradbury's Martian Chronicles as part of the...

Out Walking
"The late year has grown fresh again and new
As Spring…"
I took a walk with Edward Thomas
across the hills of Gloucestershire,
still green in mild late December,
the Sunday before Christmas.
His language as fresh as water,
as clear as birdsong or the bells
that drifted up from a village,
was what I seemed to need that day;
and I liked the way he pointed out
with quiet enthusiasm
a bird's nest wreathed into a hedge
or a wildflower still in bloom.
The beaters pacing a muddy field
of turnips, cracking their white flags
to flush partridges and pheasants
over a grove where hunters hid,
turned our talk to distant wars.
We heard faint shots and saw birds drop,
and cheered the ones that made it through,
winging their way to farther fields.
That was where we headed, too,
"nearly regardless of footpaths,"
getting lost to make a game
of finding our way back again.
"Pure earth and wind and sunlight,"
were the elements he said he loved.
Then he grew quiet, as if to become
"nothing but breathing and seeing,"
and by the time I took the lane
back into town, I was alone,
though in the pocket of my coat
my hand still held his book of poems.
The Critic Who Writes Poems
None of us know for sure if what we write
Is any good, but he knows even less.
So many poets are afraid he might
Review their books, they give his poems a pass.
As in the adage that the safest place
For the fly to land is squarely on the swatter,
They aren't going to tell him to his face
What they think, if it's easier to flatter.
Oh, pity the poor critic, who's deprived
Of the criticism on which poets depend—
Not what we get from him but what we give
Each other: the honest, sometimes painful kind
Whose absence makes it perilously easy
To avoid the thought that one's poems might be lousy.
Poetics 101 Revisited
Keats could never have foreseen,
and might view with some uncertainty,
how often we would end up quoting
his letter on Negative Capability.
And I wonder if Eliot would object
to the zillions of times we've cited
the term "objective correlative,"
a phrase he used exactly once.
What's the opposite of an epiphany?
That's what poor Joyce would undergo
if he knew what a cliché
we've turned that word into.
And perhaps even Dr. Williams would prescribe
some ideas other than in things,
though Pound might stubbornly insist
that "make it new" never gets old.
But how long do we need to go
in fear of abstractions? Is a century enough?
Is fear the proper emotion to be feeling
while composing a poem?—
maybe so, as long as it is
recollected in tranquility
and then spontaneously overflows
in powerful etc.
Beginning in delight seems right,
but whether it ends in wisdom,
a bang, a whimper, despondency, or madness,
or is never finished, only abandoned,
depends upon a red wheel barrow,
a piece of ice on a hot stove, a pheasant
disappearing in the brush then taking off
the top of your head.

Ministering to Young Single Adults
How can Relief Society leaders support young single adults?
16 Men and women who have not married or who are divorced or widowed make up a significant portion of Church membership. Priesthood and auxiliary leaders reach out to these members and include them in the work of the Church. Worthy single members should be given opportunities to hold leadership and teaching positions. …
Leaders support single members by helping them draw near to the Lord, strengthen their testimonies, and take responsibility for their own spiritual, social, and temporal well-being.
How will you determine the needs of those you serve?
What is the responsibility of leaders in ministering to young single adults?
16.2 Stake and ward leaders work continually to identify, locate, and shepherd young single adults in the following ways:
- They help young single adults find and fellowship those in their age-group who are less active in the Church.
- They create opportunities for young single adults to associate together in meaningful service, gospel learning, and social activities. …
- They support young single adults in fulfilling worthy personal goals and in making decisions about marriage, education, careers, and finances.
9.7.2 Relief Society leaders teach young single adult sisters the purposes of Relief Society and give them opportunities to participate in the work of Relief Society.
- They assign young single adult sisters to serve as visiting teachers.
- Relief Society leaders may also give young single adult sisters other meaningful opportunities to serve and may recommend them to receive callings to serve in the Relief Society.
- The Relief Society presidency assigns visiting teachers to each young single adult sister.
9.2.5 Advisers to young single adult sisters work under the direction of the Relief Society counselor assigned to young single adults. They watch over and strengthen young single adult sisters. An adviser may be given any of the following responsibilities:
- She may serve as a visiting teaching companion to a young single adult sister.
- She may help with young single adult activities.
- She may encourage young single adult sisters to participate in institute classes or other religious instruction.
- If the ward has a young single adult committee, she serves on the committee (see 16.3.4).
- If the ward has a Relief Society class for young single adult sisters, she may attend the class.
How can the young single adults in your ward be involved in hastening the work?
What resources are available to help Relief Society leaders minister to young single adults?
"Ministering to Young Single Adults"
"Identify, Locate, and Shepherd Young Single Adults"
"Overview of the Young Single Adult Program"
Ward Leadership
How can the bishopric minister to young single adults?
16.3.3 To understand and address the needs of young single adults in the ward, a bishopric member interviews each young single adult at least annually. The bishopric works with the ward council to find meaningful callings for all young single adults. The bishopric may also organize a ward young single adult committee.
A counselor in the bishopric oversees the young single adults in the ward. He receives regular reports from the counselor in the Relief Society presidency who is assigned to work with young single adults in the ward.
Who can be called to watch over and strengthen young single adult sisters?
16.3.3 Relief Society Counselor
The Relief Society president assigns a counselor to lead out in her organization's effort to watch over young single adults.
- This counselor periodically visits with young single adults to provide encouragement and help.
- She provides the assigned bishopric counselor with information about young single adults based on visiting teaching contacts and their own visits. They also report to the Relief Society president.
- The Relief Society president may report on these efforts in ward council meeting.
Young Single Adult Leaders
The bishopric may call a young single adult brother and a young single adult sister to serve as young single adult leaders.
- These leaders report to a counselor in the bishopric.
- They serve on the ward young single adult committee if one is formed.
- They meet with the Relief Society presidency regularly to ensure that visiting teaching assignments help address the needs of young single adults.
Young Single Adult Advisers
The bishopric may call a worthy married couple as ward young single adult advisers.
- These advisers report to a counselor in the bishopric.
- They serve on the ward young single adult committee if one is formed.
- They help young single adults have opportunities to gather for friendship, service, and gospel learning.
As you think of the needs of the young single adults in your ward, what leadership callings will work best to help meet those needs?
Ward Young Single Adult Committee
What are the responsibilities of the ward young single adult committee?
16.3.4 In a ward with a significant number of young single adults, the stake president and bishop may feel that a ward young single adult committee is needed. A counselor in the bishopric presides over the committee. Other committee members include the elders quorum and Relief Society counselors assigned to young single adults, the young single adult leaders, and the couple called to serve as young single adult advisers.
The committee meets as needed. Committee members discuss ways to help young single adults participate in service, leadership, gospel learning, and social activities. They also find and fellowship less-active young single adults.
As you meet together as a committee, discuss ways you can help individuals build testimonies and keep covenants.
Classes and Activities
What meetings, classes, and activities can young single adults be involved in?
16.3.5 Young single adults should be offered a variety of gospel learning, service, cultural, and social activities that can take place at the ward, stake, or multistake level. These activities may include temple visits, priesthood or temple preparation seminars, missionary work, community service, choirs, cultural events, dances, and sports.
16.3.6 Multistake and area activities can give young single adults opportunities for social interaction, leadership, and service without leaving the ecclesiastical care of their bishops.
What options do leaders have in planning young single adult activities?
16.3.5 Young single adults should frequently be called to serve together on service committees.
- Home Evening Groups—Priesthood leaders may organize one or more home evening groups for young single adults.
- Sunday School Classes—Wards with enough young single adults may have a separate Sunday School class for young single adults (see 12.4.2).
- Weekday Gospel Study Classes—Young single adults are encouraged to enroll in institute classes.
- Separate Relief Society Class—If sufficient numbers of young single adult sisters reside in a ward, the bishop may authorize the organization of a separate Relief Society class for Sunday lessons and occasional activities. Lessons are taught by members of the class, who focus their teaching on the needs of young sisters (9.7.3).
As you plan activities, first discuss the needs of the young single adults and then determine the purpose of each activity.

Official EUBC Report
**From the EuroVoice Office
Author - Viante Stockseylius
Subject - Investigation into United Kingdom EuroVoice Disqualification**
The 14th edition of EuroVoice saw a grave oversight in allowing the United Kingdom to enter the contest despite breaking a disqualification protocol. The investigation was set up to ascertain how the UK were allowed to enter and to resolve the situation to allow future contests to run smoothly.
Response at time of incident
The United Kingdom were disqualified immediately once the discrepancy was recognised. The performer was permitted to perform for no score. The action was taken as it did not affect the final outcome. The Kryulandian entrant would have won regardless of the UNited Kingdom entry being given points.
Reaction to Response
Although no formal complaints were given the United Kingdom delegation were not happy at this decision.
Understanding of Reaction
It is clear that the United Kingdom felt that they had been let down being allowed to enter and fund an entry.
Action of Improvement
It has been decided that a Deputy chair will be appointed. The appointed person is Iain Williamson of The Halsbergian Broadcasting Initiative. His appointment is made due to his excellent cooperation and skill in organising EV14. He is in not part accountable for the aforementioned incident
Mr Williams Role
Mr Williams will join Mr Stockseylius in organising all future EuroVoice competitions and ensuring the rules are followed. He will sign-off all votes and entrants.

_I'm writing to petition your banishment of Qvait from participating in the next Eurovoice competition. The penalty was far too harsh for a crime not committed. There is no rule against discussing potential future themes of the competition and I'd like to note that the results of the discussion were non-binding. No foul was committed so there should be no harm done towards the peoples of Qvait.
I'm not entirely sure that you have the right to call a disciplinary meeting in regards to recent events either. There is no rule mentioning that one cannot start a EuroVoice discussion without the blessing of the EV Chairman nor is there any evidence to support accusations of insubordination with EUBC protocols. In fact the only offense which warrants a disciplinary meeting with the EUBC Eurovice Committee is failing to meet voting deadline three or more times.
I find it very concerning that you've taken it upon yourself to speak on behalf of the entire European Union Broadcasting Company and that you've superseded the authority of the host of the next Eurovoice competition who wishes for the ban on Qvait to be lifted._
Rolande Fabron
EUBC Secretary
Os Corelia group:cid:2:privileges:mods:members last edited by
With the greatest respect, it must be noted that we have accepted that the decision lies within the authority of the entire EUBC hence why we will be hosting a public enquiry in the form of a disciplinary hearing. This is the most sensible protocol in this situation. You're objections are duly noted and you can again voice them at the hearing.
I believe it is entirely problematic to suggest that EuroVoice is undemocratic and calling for "the people" to decide. This is slanderous against the honest broadcast voted institution and the work myself and my team have done for many editions of the contest. Qvait are new to the contest and to attempt to seize control after many broadcasters have spent years working with us to create exciting innovations is frankly abhorrent.
I feel a firm handed is needed to ensure the continuation of Europe's favourite TV show.

Qvait last edited by
This is bloody outrageous, there is no attempt of "seizing control" and you repeatedly fail to recognize the note, "However, this is not an official vote, but a recommendation." And, I believe this is revenge for the rogue agents, and I will investigate this. In addition, everything in that post were my beliefs, so now your telling me that no one in the EU has a freedom of opinion? Well that makes every-bloody-thing one-sided.
- Agents gone rogue in Os Corelia
- Qvaitican poll
- Corelian attempt to isolate Qvait from the EU and its activities
Halsberg last edited by
As deputy to the EuroVoice chairman, I find the insinuations presented by the Qvaitican representative quite insulting. Revenge for rogue agents in Os Corelia? Really? For one thing, Mr. Stockseylius is not a member of the Os Corelian government, nor do I believe he would place his position, along with the EuroVoice contest as a whole, in jeopardy just to "settle the score". Qvait's representative has also failed to realise that the EUBC is not a Corelian organisation. The EUBC, as the name suggests, is comprised of member broadcasters throughout the EU, and as such trying to name a Corelian-focused incident as the root cause of this situation is frankly absurd.
Now, I completely understand that this situation is perhaps rather frustrating for Qvait's member broadcaster. I would say this to the Qvaitican representative: calm down dear. This is not the time nor the place to get flustered. I would ask that we all keep level heads during this dispute, and do not resort to using potentially offensive language.
I completely agree with the chairman with regards to the reasons for a hearing being called. The poll in question made no attempt to identify itself as purely advisory or indeed as a mere feature in a wider piece on the contest. Instead, it appeared, rightly or wrongly, as an attempt to usurp the EUBC and decide the contest's next theme. We do of course take into account the line which states it is a recommendation. However, we must take into account other things which were said. "Let the people decide", seems to me like an attempt to garner public support to pressure the EUBC to accept your "recommendation."
And please don't try and drag "freedom of opinion" into this. There is no question of a member broadcaster's right to say what they want. But when a perceived deliberate attempt to undermine the EUBC's authority is made, it must be investigated. This is what the disciplinary hearing is for. It will be mediated by a completely impartial third party, and you will be able to express any opinion you want.
Iain Williamson
Deputy EUBC EuroVoice Chair

Everyone should have a relationship with an Urologist health care provider so as not to need to scramble to find one when health issues arise. We frequently begin looking for a kidney treatment specialist once we've become desperate, which will cause us to hurry the process and be dissatisfied with the outcome. To assist you in finding the proper Urology healthcare provider without trouble, here are some strategies.
It is important to know that there're laws in place that require practitioners to keep your medical records for a set number of years. There are a lot of reasons for why you might want to have your records moved somewhere else, so you need to understand where they are and for what length of time they are going to be kept there. More often than not, you will probably be charged to get duplicates when you ask to get your history, yet you ought to do it in almost any case with the goal that you have your own particular data available. Ask your bedwetting treatment specialists just what the charge for copies of your records, and how long the records are kept.
Scheduling an appointment is sometimes difficult if the office is chaotic and the employees are confused or incompetent. Similarly, they may not call you back on time to deliver test results, and important messages you leave for your kidney treatment specialist may fall through the cracks. If you struggle to make appointments, get messages to your treatment specialist, or get test results, find a new Urology treatment specialist whose clinic is staffed with friendly and organized receptionists.

Rice's Graham notches win No. 900
Owls' head coach picks up 900th victory against Houston
HOUSTON -- Rice sophomore Michael Ratterree drove in three runs with a home run and a double to lead the Blue & Gray to an 8-2 Conference USA road win against crosstown rival Houston, but the loudest cheers of the night were reserved for Owl head coach Wayne Graham as he notched his 900th career-win at the helm of the baseball program Friday evening across town at UH's Cougar Field.
Coach Graham reached his 900th Division I win, and he mixed-in a couple other milestones with it on the side. In this, his 20th season on South Main, Rice (30-16) has now reached the 30-win plateau for a 19th consecutive season. Only five other schools in the country have longer active streaks of having won at least 30 games. With two earlier wins over Houston in March, the Owls also clinched the annual season-long best-of-five series against UH for the Silver Glove Trophy as the city's collegiate champion. Rice has now won 13 of the 14 series with the Cougars since play for The Glove began in 1998. The Owls won the trophy in its first two years and have held the hardware now for 11 years in a row.
After three scoreless frames the Owls put four big runs on the board in the top of the fourth. Keenan Cook led off with a single to center and J.T. Chargois placed a perfect bunt for a base hit that put runners on first and second. Cook sprinted home on a Cougar fielding error and Chargois hustled to third on the play. He scored on Craig Manuel's fielder's choice that made it 2-0. The Owls doubled the margin to 4-0 on a towering two-run homer to left by Ratterree. The longball was Ratterree's fifth of the season, and at that point his fifth hit in the Silver Glove Series.
Houston scored a pair of runs in the bottom of the fifth. Cody Morehouse and Landon Appling both singled, and a Ryan Still sacrifice bunt advanced the runners into scoring position. Morehouse scored on a Caleb Ramsey single and Cokinos came home on a ground out that made it 4-2.
Rice came right back with three runs in the top of the sixth. Anthony Rendon drew a leadoff walk and scored from first base on a lining double to left by Ratterree. Shane Hoelscher walked and Ryan Lewis singled to right. Michael Fuda walked to load the bases and Hoelscher scored on a sacrifice fly by Derek Hamilton to make the score 7-2.
In the eighth, Lewis drew a one-out walk and advanced to third on Fuda's double to left. Hamilton followed with an RBI single for an 8-2 lead that closed-out the scoring.
Rice had a sound and solid effort on the mound from freshman starter Austin Kubitza. The right-hander from Colleyville, Tex., worked his way out of some early trouble to earn his fourth win of the season. Kubitza allowed two earned runs on six hits over 7.2 innings. He struck out eight batters and did not issue any walks. He was relieved by Jeremy Fant, who fired 1.1 scoreless frames and struck out three of the four batters he faced.
The Owls improved to 30-16 on the season and 10-6 in Conference USA action. The Cougars are now 22-24 overall and 9-7 in league play.
Rice has secured the Silver Glove for another year, but there is still a more important aspect at stake in the weekend's crosstown series. The next two remaining games of the weekend set are critical C-USA league games, and the conference slate is far from over. Saturday's game of the crosstown rivalry (C-USA No. 2 and Silver Glove No. 4) is set for 3 pm Central Time. The contest will be televised by Comcast Sports Southwest (CSS) from UH's Cougar Field.

England captain Harry Kane scores late goal to save the match against Scotland on his debut as skipper
England World Cup 2018 Russia first round qualifiers update
Arsenal striker Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain opened the scoring for England. Just in time, England Captain Harry Kane volleyed in an injury-time equalizer to tie the score against the Scots 2-2 after Scotland striker Leigh Griffiths came through with two superlative free kicks that looked like legend-making magic to Scottish fans as the strikes went to the right and left of England super goalie No.1, Joe Hart. Scotland were ever so close to their first win over the auld enemy since 1999 - their first at Hampden since 1985. Gordon Strachan's Scotland side almost tasted victory against their arch-rivals England, but instead, two precious World Cup points went up in smoke. England's long unbeaten record in World Cup qualification matches continues! Buy all World Cup 2018 Russia tickets for England from LiveFootballTickets.com!
Scotland 2-2 England
Scotland goals: Griffiths (87'min, 90'min)England goals: Oxlade-Chamberlain (70'min), Kane (90'+ 3min)
England goalkeepers (Burnley's) Tom Heaton and (Stoke's) Jack Butland will each play a half for England against France on Tuesday at the Stade de France in Paris in their upcoming International friendly against France.England No.1 goalkeeper Joe Hart, who conceded two late free-kicks against Scotland in the World Cup 2018 First Round qualifier on Saturday in Glasgow will not travel to Paris with the first team for the friendly against France.
"It was never my intention to play Joe in this game," said England manager Gareth Southgate before the match in Paris.
England Captain Harry Kane volleys in an injury-time equalizer to tie score against Scotland 2-2
Tottenham Hotspur star striker Harry Kane will remain captain after leading his England side as they drew 2-2 with Scotland in a fight to the finish on Saturday. In his past four appearances for club and country combined, Harry Kane has scored nine goals.
Thirty-one-year-old Heaton will make his debut start for England in a career that has seen him play in all four divisions in England. Heaton did not feature on the first team at Manchester United and has since played for Swindon, Antwerp, Cardiff, QPR, Rochdale, Wycombe and Bristol City as well as the Clarets.
Heaton will be winning his third cap for England with both of his previous appearances coming off the bench.
"Obviously I have played across all four divisions, the ambition never left me, that hunger to play for England," Heaton said. "It might have felt, for other people, a long way off at certain times, playing down in League Two, but I never lost that belief."
Manchester City goalkeeper Hart played the full 90 minutes at Hampden Park, giving up two late free kicks from Scotland's Leigh Griffiths.
After the match, Southgate was asked if Hart was at fault for the goals.
"They were great free-kicks. Beyond that, coaching conversations I have with players stay private," said Southgate. "If we go down that route then it's not the right thing to do. I go back to the concession of free-kicks being the starting point. There are many areas we could have done better."
Thirty-year-old Joe Hart has won 71 caps for England. However, Hart faces fierce competition from Butland, Heaton, and Southampton's Fraser Forster to keep his No.1 shirt.
"You need to give players the opportunity," said Southgate. "In the past, one or two keepers have given up international football because they've not had that chance, so I'm conscious of keeping players involved."
Butland returned to active play in late April after being sidelined with a fractured ankle while on England duty in March 2016.
"We think he can also challenge for the number one spot," said Southgate. "It is a difficult call on Fraser, who is also a very good keeper. With those four and [Sunderland's] Jordan Pickford, plus a couple of lads coming up potentially from the Championship next year, we are very healthy."
England's clash with France on Tuesday will be the first senior England fixture with a video assistant referee. The use of VARs is being trialed by world governing body Fifa and may feature in next year's World Cup. Italian Davide Massa will referee the match, with two conventional assistant referees.
The Oasis song Don't Look Back in Anger will be played before the game as the French pay their respects to those killed in the recent attacks in London and Manchester. Fans will hold up red and white placards to form the England flag as the song is played just before the players emerge from the tunnel. Both teams will wear black armbands and a minute's silence will also be observed prior to the match.
England have won only one of their past six away games against France (D1 L4) - a 1-0 win under Glenn Hoddle in June 1997. However, they did win their last meeting with Les Bleus, in a friendly at Wembley in November 2015 (2-0).

About WEICHERT, REALTORS® - Hunter Properties
Cheryl Deschenes and Pat Fellmann, owners of a more than 20 years strong, successful real estate agency in Plainville, have announced the company's association with one of the nation's fastest-growing franchise organizations. WEICHERT, REALTORS® - Hunter Properties is the new name on the sign at 51 Man Mar Drive, Suite #5,
"Why WEICHERT, REALTORS® - Hunter Properties?," That is easy for Cheryl and Pat to answer.
The two had explored "quite a few" franchises and in fact had been affiliated with one. "What we need is the support of a company that has things in place," Deschenes said. Fellmann added that among the many attractions of the WEICHERT, REALTORS® organization is the "leads" program. Another, she pointed out, "is that Weichert Relocation Resources, Inc. is one of the largest relocation companies in New England, and we do a lot of relocation business." Education is high on the list as well. WEICHERT® provides immediate and ongoing training and support for agents and managers alike.
Cheryl and Pat were joined in the conversion announcement by Weichert Real Estate Affiliates, Inc. President Bill Scavone. "We are proud to add people like Cheryl, Pat and their whole team to the growing WEICHERT® family in Massachusetts and have great expectations for the kind of service that our affiliation will bring to the market."
Home to more than 5,700 sales associates among its franchised sales offices, WEICHERT, REALTORS® launched its first independently owned and operated franchise in January 2002 and since has grown to more than 260 signed offices in 25 states. In addition to training, the full-service organization includes mortgage and insurance services, a commercial and investments division,
Deschenes, who is the company's Broker/Co-owner, has been in real estate since 1989, earning "Rookie of the Year" honors her first year in business. She focused on new construction for the 10 years leading up to the opening of Hunter Properties, with her husband and other family members in the new construction business.
Sales Associate/Co-owner Fellmann, who is also relocation director for the agency, entered the field in 1984. She worked first at an independent agency in North Attleboro, Mass., then at a larger company where she met Deschenes.
They formed a partnership in 1996 and opened Hunter Properties, bringing eight agents on board who had been part of a core group at their previous firm. "The Nantucket Ten," as they were then known, grew to a current staff and sales team of over 30 people. In September, they moved into a new professional building which they built on Man Mar Drive, which they share with six other businesses.
WEICHERT, REALTORS® - Hunter Properties can be reached at (508) 695-1041 or on our website www.hunter-properties.com.

The Securieon Group has a collective knowledge base of over 50 years of experience in multiple disciplines. Although our focus originated in technology market research, strategy development and tactical execution, we have evolved into a full-service research team of analysts with in-depth knowledge of technology, healthcare, manufacturing/distribution, retail & consumers, entertainment/media, sports and energy/utilities. The genius in our research is the ability to uncover hidden opportunities and challenges for our clients. The process is simple; the results are shocking.
Your Market Today- we provide a reality check as to the current market trends and competitive threats to create a realistic outside looking in awareness of risks and rewards associated to each client's growth strategy. We identify systemic issues that may be preventing a client from executing.
Your Market Tomorrow-we provide an in-depth analysis of a client's industry and market trends. Technological advances have a drastic effect on all industries today. The ability to identify and adapt to changing market conditions is both an art and a science. The challenge is to create a cost effective strategic plan where early wins can be achieved or costly ideas can be minimized.
Lack of organizational alignment to Founder/CEO initiative is a hidden issue often masked by many years of positive company revenue performance. Can a strong economy be a major reason for company growth?
Assessing organizational culture and leadership behavior is the first step toward aligning management teams to a new growth strategy. Identifying core expertise amongst a client's management team and assigning roles by which they can thrive is both an opportunity and a welcome challenge.
What If Scenarios- Even the best market analysis cannot be complete without adding financial models to minimize risks. We build sophisticated financial models that are tailored to our client's strategic goals. These tools enable evaluation of varied scenarios and can guide strategic planning for the following initiatives:
2.Growth Capital
3.Growth by Strategic Acquisitions
4.Mergers & Acquisitions
5.Organic Growth
Securieon Group is different- we create innovative strategies by connecting marketplace trends with specific growth initiatives. By comparing historical data and social global trends we anticipate future realities where innovation can accelerate revenue and expand new market opportunities.
Does market research guarantee success in risk mitigation and market expansion? There are no guarantees in life. The best we can provide our clients is enough insight to make a well-educated decision and while mitigating risks.
A wild wild west attitude is clearly for high risk adverse early stage companies. We are focused on innovative approaches to well established mid-market companies who are at a pivotal point of their founder's careers.
"Keep in mind that failure, the final taboo in modern society is but one part of the inevitable cycle of life for those who dare to live fully and completely. Never to fail at all is to fail in the biggest way. Avoiding risk altogether, one cannot help but fall far short of what might have been." author unknown

The grandmother of Eddy Curry's son handed him over to the former Chicago Bulls player's family late Thursday, hours after she disappeared with the child while vowing to defy a court order granting custody to Curry.
Steve Patterson, a spokesman for the Cook County sheriff's office, confirmed that 3-year-old Noah Henry had been transferred to the Curry family at the Daley Center at about 11:30 p.m.

This living area enjoys plentiful views with its walls of windows and French doors. To offer privacy without impeding the serene setting, roller shades in a white fabric are mounted high. When not in use, they seem to disappear against the walls.
Playing to country-casual decor in the kitchen, floral Roman shades fit the windows above the sink. These perfect rectangles add just enough interest to break the span of white and stay neatly out of the way during kitchen tasks. The touch of fabric also helps soften the hard surfaces of the kitchen.
Playing off the graphic shapes of the lattice-style chairs, honeycomb-print fabric covers the large picture window while Roman shades in the same fabric suit smaller windows, a solution that brings about cohesion to the different-size windows. Maintaining the light and airy feel, the mostly white drapes are unlined, allowing light to filter through.
Because of the curved bay, each window requires individual treatment. Woven matchstick blinds provide casual coverings perfectly suited to the laid-back vibe in the living area. A seagrass rug adds another layer of natural fibers, tying the window treatment to the room's overall design.
Putting even more attention on the grand architecture, orange-and-white zebra-print Roman shades dress the trio of windows in this study. Choosing custom treatments to fit the different widths of windows (the one in the middle is larger) allowed the designer to use a choice fabric. Above, an arched window needs no dressing; it's high enough that privacy is a nonissue.
Windows fill the corner walls in this bedroom, but instead of draping to the floor, they are cut short to make way for the bank of bookshelves. By resting just above the top of the shelf, the curtains allow room for additional display. For support, two sets of rods hang above each window. The draperies, though short, are made wide enough to easily cover the expanse of each window.
A trio of windows hangs above a built-in banquette in this breakfast area. Because seating is just below the windows, drapes were not an option. Instead, individual valances in matching fabric crown the top of each window. Semitransparent linen shades pull down for privacy.
Spanning the bank of windows above the kitchen counter, a single horizontal bamboo shade provides an unobtrusive focal point. The long Roman shade's natural coloring plays off the island's wood countertop, balancing out colors and materials used in the room. With wide or heavy window treatments, be sure to use support brackets along the window treatment and not just at the ends.
Windows extend to the ceiling in this sunroom. Hung below upper transoms, wide Roman shades unfold to cover the window and offer privacy. Upper windows are left unadorned to maintain a constant vibrancy of natural sunlight.
A tropical-citrus color scheme adds feminine flair to this bedroom bay. Custom rods, angled to fit the bend in the walls, allow for a continuous look. For complementary tension, Roman shades repeat the draperies' circle pattern on a larger scale, and the colors coordinate with floral patterns on the ottoman and bedding. In a room with multiple windows, treatments take up a lot of visual space; coordinating the dressings to elements already in the room promotes cohesion.
In this bay window, custom Roman shades were the answer to a streamlined look -- despite bends in the walls. The wide expanse shares a single shade. On side windows, shades are custom-fit to individual windows. To give the entire bay a united look, the designer carefully lined up the folds on the fabric's diamond pattern.
There's nothing cozier than a window seat. Dressed in pretty coordinating graphics, the built-ins gains even more charm. Black-and-white fabrics in varying scales of patterns suit pillows, an upholstered cushion, and a trio of Roman shades. Embracing scale and the linear bench seat, the shade fabric is a medium-size diamond pattern bordered by a bolder black stripe.
A sofa finds the perfect home in a bay of windows. Drapery panels hang from grommets on a custom curved-iron rod. Panels soften the expanse and call attention to individual windows. Adding interest, yet maintaining the neutral scheme, the top band of the window treatments is white, and the lower portion is a loose linen weave.
A curved built-in banquette resides beneath an ocular ceiling detail in this breakfast nook. Pillows and built-ins eliminated the option for full-length draperies, so the designer chose simple Roman shades to offer privacy and to accent the architecture. The pale blue fabric offers a subtle pattern for interest without overpowering the drama of the bay.
Modern styling meets cottage chic in this breakfast bay. A wide window seat and multipane windows make a grand impression. Maintaining the utilitarian, uncluttered look, windows treatments are simple bamboo Roman shades. Chairs repeat the natural color tones. Library lamps are anchored to the outside wall, shedding contemporary light on the inviting scene.
