Makes a better indoor antenna than the indoor antennas!
- Burien, WA -
Bought this in an attempt to get stronger signals from my local stations. Tried rabbit ears and the modern square amplified flat antenna. Rabbits could not get CBS and NBC, the stations I wanted. The square flat antenna could get CBS, barely, and NBC but the signal was weak and the video would lag. So I bought the Winegard FreeVision FV-HD30, thinking Winegard has made antennas for a long time (since 1948), maybe this will work. And boy was I surprised at just how well it does work. I get many more channels and CBS and NBC come in strong - no lag, no signal dropouts. I did have to mount this as high as possible on my north facing bedroom wall to get CBS and NBC, which was about 13 or 14 feet above ground. I live in a second floor apartment with an apartment above me and one in the front between me and the broadcast towers and I am still able to get a strong signal. It helps that the broadcast towers are all within a 22 mile range. It was a huge surprise for me to find that this outdoor antenna was so much better than the so-called indoor ones. I should add that I have this hooked up to a USB WinTV dual tuner connected to my computer so I can watch TV! The antenna mounts just fine to the wall with a couple long nails or screws, should you decide to use it indoors, which most of us apartment dwellers must do.
Anyway, absolutely love this antenna, and am so glad I took the risk in buying it! It's excellent.
Amazing Antenna!
- Lansing, MI -
This is a truly amazing antenna for its small size. I picked it up at a local store. I first mounted it on an old satellite J-mount which was about 10'; above ground. Reception was OK but there was a lot of pixelation. I then stuck a 6'; mast in the J-mount to put it up higher. I gained one bar of signal strength on all channels and there is no pixelation now. I pick up 18 channels crystal clear by pointing it toward the Southwest. A great buy and no cable or satellite bill! Why pay for something which is free?
Great antenna and great buying experience in purchase from Solid Signal
- Wichita, KS -
This is a great antenna, I live in the suburbs of a city and I have some stations that are nearby and some are weak powered and others about 30 miles away and this new antenna pulls them all in. This antenna gives me about 7 more channels than my old antenna and today was windy and even on the weak powered channels I get a good picture without much signal loss. Very quick handling and shipping from Solid Signal, got my antenna in 3 business days. Thank you SS !
This is an amazing antenna.
- Wilton Manors, FL -
I bought this to replace my Terk antenna which performed very poorly after moving to a new location in my complex. I was only able to receive ONE channel without dropouts in the reception. I bought the FV-HD30 in hopes I would be able to pick up the two VHF channels that I couldn';t receive at all, no matter how I positioned the old antenna. I couldn';t believe the number of channels I was receiving with this antenna. I am receiving EVERY channel in my area without any problems with the antenna indoors, however I put it on my porch just to keep it out of sight in my living room. With the antenna outside, I get a few channels outside my area that I wasn';t getting before. This antenna does everything that Winegard says it does. I highly recommend this antenna to anyone with reception problems in an urban area.

I only live about 15 miles from the signal towers and can see them from my roof top but the reception with rabbit ears and 3 other set top antennas have been horrible. I even bought and returned a 50 mile attic antenna with no success. Everything I read and everyone I talked to said a set top antenna would work but they didnt.

Better than I imagined
Antenna Noobie
- Providence, idence RI -
This small unobtrusive antenna picks up all the stations I hoped it would everything in a radius of 30 miles even though it is placed indoors. The antenna has met all my expectations and Im very pleased with it. Its so good that I plan to get some longer wire and try it outdoors to see if it could pull in more distant stations.
Great Antennia

Very good antennia . Get channels I never got before . very clear picture
great indoors alternative to rabbit ears
- Arlington MA, Arlington MA -
I made several purchases of amplified indoor antennas - rabbit ears or flat square styles.I found they were not significantly better than unamplified rabbit ears so it was frustrating to spend the time buying them trying them and returning them.There were some marginal channels with the unamplified rabbit ears and they needed to be placed very precisely otherwise channels would be dropping
Great Antenna for Attic
- Houston, TX -
This is one of the few Antennas that gets good signal mounted in my attic which has a foil insulation.Only misses one station out of 60 in my area.I have 2 antennas one roof mount and this one which allows me to record up to 4 stations and watch one station live with by using a dual and triple split.Im very happy with the build quality ease of installation and how effective this antenna is

AMHERST - Developers of a 75-unit student housing project on Olympia Drive have applied for a demolition permit to raze the fraternity on the property's site.
The Building Inspector's office will review the application before the permit is issued.
Commissioner Robert Morra in an email said he expects "comments and questions will be provided to the applicant next week. Permit issuance will depend on the applicant's response however likely to take a few more weeks. Work may begin immediately following the issuance of the permit."
Kyle Wilson and David Williams of Archipelago Investments plan to build a 75-unit student housing project that would provide housing for 236 at 57 Olympia Drive. Work is expected to begin later this summer.
Developers paid $1.2 million for the one-acre site that had been home to Sigma Phi Epsilon.
Because the land is not zoned for apartments but for dormitory or fraternity use, the developers agreed to stipulate that only students attending the town's two colleges and the University of Massachusetts or their families and those managing the building will be allowed to live there.
The same developer is currently building the 36-unit mixed-use project at Kendrick Place across from Kendrick Park. Ground breaking on that began this summer.
According to plans filed with the Amherst Planning Department, the developers want to build "36 high-quality apartments" on floors two through five and retail on the first floor. The complex could be home to 102 residents, according to the plans.
The plans call for eight one-bedroom, 590-square-foot apartments; nine two-bedroom, 900-square-foot apartments; and 19 four-bedroom, 1,200-square-foot apartments.

Brussels, 19th April
The European Commission today announced that it has approved Sony/ATV's attempt to purchase EMI's publishing arm. This follows an extension of the initial Phase 1 investigation, during which Sony submitted and then revised an offer of remedies in a bid to deal with the problems cited by the European regulator, who said it had serious doubts about the merger.
The Commission has now approved the deal without market-testing the revised remedies or opening a more detailed investigation. Last month it launched a detailed investigation (Phase 2) into Universal's proposed deal to purchase EMI Recording.
Helen Smith, IMPALA Executive Chair, commented: "We need to study the full decision in detail, but this is bad news for Europe's publishers and writers, as well as for collecting societies and any label or online service which needs to be able to rely on fair terms to use music. In the wake of Martin Bandier's confirmation this morning of expected job losses at both EMI and Sony, we are particularly concerned for all Sony and EMI's employees and writers. We remain convinced that the impact of this merger on the livelihood of authors has been underestimated, while the ability of the remedies to secure future competition has been overestimated. We understand the Commission has treated the case as unique, concluding on the basis of its analysis of Sony's power and the specificities of its corporate structure and rejecting other arguments such as the power of online players, which will send a strong message regarding the Universal/EMI case, now even more crucial."
Michel Lambot, Co-Founder of the PIAS Entertainment Group and Co-President of IMPALA added: "This decision goes clearly against the official position of the EU to put knowledge and internet at the heart of its development. Any web developer coming from any European Silicon Valley will have to obtain an authorisation from Sony/Emi if it wants to put music on its website unlike the US. How many of them will ever get an answer when requesting a licence?"
About IMPALA
IMPALA was established in April 2000 to represent independent music companies. 99% of Europe's music companies are SMEs. Known as the "independents", they are world leaders in terms of innovation and discovering new music and artists - they produce more than 80% of all new releases. SME's also produce 80% of Europe's jobs. Their potential is enormous but is hampered by complex barriers to trade and severe market access problems. The impact on diversity, consumer choice and pluralism is clear. Over 95% of what most people hear and see, whether on radio, retail or the internet, is concentrated in the hands of four multinationals, known as the majors.
Cultural and creative SMEs are now officially recognised by the EU as "the drivers of growth, job creation and innovation". IMPALA expects the EC and its member countries to put in place key investment, digital and market access measures. Fostering Europe's economy of culture and diversity is one of the EU's top priorities in becoming the world's leading knowledge economy. Culture is a bigger earner than any of chemicals, automobiles or ICT manufacturing and provides more than 3% of Europe's jobs. IMPALA has its own award schemes to help promote cultural diversity and new talent and highlight the artistic contribution of independent music. IMPALA award winning artists include Efterklang, Adele, Manu Chao, Radiohead, Agnes Obel, Caro Emerald and Sigur Ros.

UPDATE: Division I-AAA ADs Association Announces Scholar-Athlete Teams
May 27, 2010
CLEVELAND – The Division I-AAA Athletics Directors Association (DI-AAA ADA) Scholar-Athlete Teams, originally announced on April 7, have been adjusted.
In the April 7 release, three student-athletes whose institutions sponsor football, were inadvertently placed on the teams (Matt Howard, Butler; Adam Templeton, Drake; and Kristin Daugherty, Dayton). The Division I-AAA ADA has corrected the teams with the following:
On the men's side, Evan Fjeld from Vermont and Devin Gibson from UTSA, who were previously honorable mention selections, are now on the Scholar-Athlete team. Frank Turner from Canisius has been added as an honorable mention selection, while Yves Mekongo from LaSalle has been named the 2010 Scholar-Athlete of the Year.
For the women, Kailey Klein of Cleveland State, an honorable mention choice in the first release, has been moved to the Scholar-Athlete team.
About Division I-AAA ADA: Now in its ninth year, the Division I-AAA Athletics Directors Association's mission is to enhance initiatives common to its Division I-AAA membership (the 95 Division I institutions that do not sponsor football), in particular, aspects related to their flagship basketball programs. For more information on the Division I-AAA ADA, please visit www.div1aaa-ada.com. The Division I-AAA ADA is administered by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA), which is in its 45th year.

Twist Collective Blog
Mod Corner: Little Birds
Hi everyone! Welcome to the second installment of Mod Corner, where we take a look at some of Twist readers' creative interpretations of our patterns. Today we are looking at Little Birds, Ysolda Teague's pretty cardigan from our inaugural issue.
Not only are knitters still making this sweater, they are making amazing things using the pattern.
carli84 kept this top as a cardigan, but completely changed up the shape and neckline. I love that acid green she chose for the birds, and how the buttons line up and match perfectly with the leafy stripes.
RobynPearl made this cool vest. I love the deep waist ribbing and the color choices, they give this top a vintage feel.
Dahlia made this great classic crew neck pullover. I love how even with so many colors, this top doesn't seem loud.
flyingdandelion also made a pullover, but with a finer gauge and a scooped neckline. So pretty!
jojowheeler made this sweet vest. It's barely bigger than a swatch; anyone making this sweater could do one of these little cuties to test out color combinations and figure out the charts!
undone57 also made something wee, but with a hood and a zipper! How adorable is this?
Fiolinn also made a sweet top for a tiny human.
Inspiring work, right? What would you do with this pattern?
Twist Style Friday: Merise
Every Friday we feature one of the garments from the magazine in a post about styling. We suggest different ways to wear the garment in question using mock-ups from Polyvore. We encourage readers to tell us what they think about these outfits via our Facebook page or Twitter, and if folks want to make their own outfits, please tweet them at us with the hashtag #twiststyle. You can find all of the Style Friday posts here.
Have you looked closely at this top? Like really looked at it? The details are so lush and pretty.
You should probably see it from the back too.
I think of this top as kind of a surprise. At a distance, it looks like a t-shirt. You maybe get a hint that it is a little special if you glimpse the lightly scalloped sleeve. Then when you get closer, the details become more apparent; the delicate cabled body, and the way the lace dips to a V in the front, making a lovely heart shape on the body.
Precisely because of the surprise-wow factor, you can wear this top lots of ways. With a little bling and a black pencil skirt, you're cocktail-ready. It can be a bright pop under a blazer for work. You can also wear it just like a t-shirt!
The last few days in Toronto have been intensely sticky and hot, so my styling choices reflect that a bit. Check out Merise, for days when you don't really want to wear clothes!
I'm heading to a weekend of cottaging that includes a few of my Montreal knitting ladies. I can't wait to see my lovely buds and take a dip. If I have room in my bag, I'll bring along my almost finished Pont Neuf; I'm hoping that being near water, dears, and deer will get me over the sleeve-knitting sllump.
How will you wear Merise?
Twist Collector: Joelle
Today's Twist Collector post comes to you from Joelle, a super talented (and prolific) knitter and Twist fan. She has completed *ten* projects from Twist patterns so far, and with really lovely results. She even shared some of these projects with people she likes; lucky them! Joelle is a homemaker and homeschooling mom to one lovely daughter. Her husband works in theatre, and is often not home at night, leaving her with many evenings to knit. When not knitting Joelle volunteers, gardens and cooks. She also makes commisioned upcycled clothing quilts to help with the yarn budget. You can find her on Ravelry as gnomeknits, and learn more on her blog. Enjoy!!
Twist Collective has been my favorite knitting magazine since it first came out. Every time a new issue is released I sit here and oooh while my knitting queue grows and grows.
My first Twist pattern was Gytha (totally had to look this up on Ravelry and I'm amazed that it was four years ago!). I wanted to knit a sweater with color work but was wary of an all over color work sweater for both personal style and skill. Gytha was perfect it's color work is simple enough for a beginner and with the striping it's interesting without being too busy. I still wear this sweater regularly.
My second Twist pattern was Roo, and is one of my favorites for a few reasons. It's adorable and it was the first nice sweater I made The Bug. She wore it for three winters before growing out of it. The swing front is so great on little kids; it gives them that extra moving space they need so much.
Can you believe that is my big girl?! She really liked this sweater. It's the reason she always asks for a sweater jacket when we are discussing each year's sweater.
Another favorite of mine is Pyorre. So again not actually mine but it was mine to knit. I'm showing my product knitting tendencies here. The pieces I make my family, the ones they like the most, tend to end up being the ones I like the most. Pyorre was the first sweater I knit Mr. Gnome that he actually and truly liked. It's casual, it's a bit big, it's simple, but for my knitting needs, not too simple, really a good sweater to make for a guy.
The Twist piece I wear the most is Cascata. I've realized that I really like stoles. While I like the idea of a shawl I just move around too much for something to sit nicely on my shoulders. I always end up wrapping them around my neck and stoles can handle this sort of treatment so much better than a triangle shaped shawl. Cascata does fit nicely on the shoulders and sometimes I'll wear it that way if I'm cold and sitting in a restaurant.
But that crescent shaping that keeps it on the shoulders so well also helps it lay nicely when wrapped around ones neck like a scarf. The bolder lace looks nice and doesn't get lost when bunched up as a scarf.
I am the most proud of Athabasca. It took me a long time but it was worth it. When I saw it I fell in love, both with the look and the color of the modeled garment. I'm really glad Webs was out of the blue when I ordered, making me decide on a different color, purple. It makes it mine. There is color work and all over but it isn't too busy or too feminine. Just my style.
Designer Post: Cayley
Today's post is brought to you by Amy Herzog, designer of both Cayley and Lilium from our most recent issue (in addition to several other designs for Twist, including Oscillate and Greenaway). You can also find this post here, on Amy's website. Amy shares the evolution of Cayley from idea to completion, and the twists and turns that led to the beautiful finished object.
When the current issue of Twist Collective came out, I had just started the book events and barely had time to mention it! Now that things have settled down a bit, I wanted to take a post and step through my design process and thoughts for one of my patterns in the issue, Cayley.
Getting design ideas ready for submission might be my favorite part of the whole process. It's where I get to sketch, swatch, jot down notes, and imagine how the sweater will be worn. And of course, through my design process I always ensure the design will be easy to modify.
Cayley started with the lace pattern. I wanted to do a spring lace cardigan, but one that was more grown-up than sweet. Easier to modify than most. My solution was to keep the lace at the edges, leaving the middle of the garment in easy-to-mod Stockinette Stitch.
You might be able to see that as originally envisioned, I'd thought of Cayley in a lighter-weight yarn, with silk or perhaps even linen as a primary fiber, to support small gathers and a larger box pleat on the back. The yarn Kate chose, the wonderfully soft O-wool Legacy DK, was both thicker and fluffier than I'd originally thought. So out the pleats and gathers went. I like the result–the simplified design focuses attention on the lace panels, which are gorgeous and soft in the O-wool.
I knew I wanted the lace panel to go over the shoulders, but detailing like that has to be done carefully (in my opinion) to avoid waist-boob (that phenomenon where the detailing stretches juuuust low enough that it visually groups your bust with your waist and hips, rather than up with your neck and face).
Keeping it in line with the crew neck shaping does the job perfectly. And do you see those adorable buttons? They're vintage, and were a bit of button nirvana. (Now might be the time to admit my button stash is ridiculous.)
Sleeves are always kind of dull to knit for me, so I wanted to liven these up without making the design scream "HEY! I KNIT THIS!" from across the street. A simple repeat of the lace did the trick.
So there you have it! The final version of Cayley is fairly close to my original goals. It's modern, a touch sweet, interesting to knit, easy to modify, and super-easy to wear.
I'm thinking about one in a beautiful deep blue for fall. What color would you make yours?
Twist Style Friday: Morisot
Every Friday we feature one of the garments from the magazine in a post about styling. We suggest different ways to wear the garment in question using mock-ups from Polyvore. We encourage readers to tell us what they think about these outfits via our Facebook page or Twitter, and if folks want to make their own outfits, please tweet them at us with the hashtag #twiststyle. You can find all of the Style Friday posts here.
This top reminds me of birthday cake.
This yarn is super beautiful (and ohmygosh soft), but I would also love to see this in a solid or tonal yarn to really show off those shaping details. Check this out!

A glossary of juggling terminology - does such a thing exist?
In this subthread over on Reddit someone has asked for a glossary of modern juggling, and to my surprise I realised that I'm not sure such a thing exists, not an authoritative one anyway. Can any Edgizens prove me wrong please? Or suggest some good places for a curious Redditor to start looking? David Cain do you perhaps have some suggestions?
I think it was our God Emperor who created this one. Seems quite thorough.
Although I would question "Backdrop"; to me that is what is behind you - in terms of filming or performing (so, do your props contrast sufficiently with the backdrop or do they blend in?) [I would definitely include that as an alternative meaning]
Otherwise, its a pretty good start on a juggling glossary, it maybe requiring a bit of updating in terms of references to people (perhaps, to make it a bit more timeless, I would omit living people from the glossary)
Yeah, I couldn't find anything comprehensive when I looked either, which was what prompted me to compile that page.
It's been a while since I've added anything to that page, I think the last addition was buugeng.
I have added the extra definition for backdrop. I've also removed most of the living jugglers from view. I've left in those who I feel are more famous for a contribution they have made to juggling culture rather than for who they are.
New suggestions are always welcome. Any glaring ommissions from the past few years that I should include?
Mike Moore - - Parent #
Box and an inverted modifier!
Both terms added, & inverse too which is related. Suggestions for less clunkily worded definitions also welcome!
lukeburrage - - Parent #
"Combat: US term for Gladiators" should be "Gladiators: the British term for combat".
Yeah, I suppose you are right, it does seem to be a purely British term now. I wonder when that changed? I clearly remember it being announced as gladiators during the games at the EJC in 2002.
& is it a 3 club specific thing? I don't think I've ever heard the term 'unicycle combat' for example.
lukeburrage - - Parent #
Gladiators is more of a generic term for "the last person doing this prop/skill with contact between participants allowed" so unicycle gladiators is usually still a thing. Also hoop gladiators or ball-on-head gladiators.
Combat is for three clubs and three balls.

She calls Mark, her crossdresser friend, to come over and screw the silly bitch. After some humiliation the slave is being double fucked, with his Mistress\' strapon, and with Mark\'s own tool. Mark shoots his load, which makes the Mistress angry, so the pervy stud makes up his mind to leave, afraid of being frowned upon.

My executive coaching clients get homework (yes, really!) and Gary Hamel's book "What Matters Now: How to Win in a World of Relentless Change, Ferocious Competition, and Unstoppable Innovation" just rose to the top of the reading list.
If you are a newly hired or recently promoted leader or manager (or you are experienced leader working on your succession plan for retirement), this is a MUST READ NOW book.
If you wait too long … you will be left in the dust and stomped on by your competition who is taking action on Gary Hamel's (a bit irreverent) ideas on how to become a resilient, innovative and built to last organization.

Ian Linden on Global Health and Africa
The Berkley Center, WFDD, and Tony Blair Faith Foundation (TBFF) convened an afternoon discussion with Ian Linden, director of policy at TBFF. Linden presented and discussed TBFF's current work, particularly their Faiths Act fellows program, a multi-faith global movement that engages 34 fellows to inspire and mobilize people of faith to take action towards the Millennium Development Goals, with a focus on eliminating malaria-related deaths. An initiative that paralleled in many ways the Berkley Center's Millennial Values Fellows initiative, Linden's discussion of the Faiths Act program shed light on mutual areas of interest.
Linden and Katherine Marshall, senior fellow at the Berkley Center and executive director of WFDD, also discussed the recent, jointly undertaken publication entitled "Global Health and Africa: Assessing Faith Work and Research Priorities," highlighting the findings of this review of literature and experiences on the actual and potential roles of faith communities in responding to priority global health challenges, notably HIV and AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, and major childhood killers. The WFDD and TBFF joint-review aims to chart and define research gaps and possibilities, focusing on Africa and on issues with links to global health policies relevant to poverty alleviation.

Hulkbusting in Age of Ultron, and Other Important Teasers From the MTV Movie Awards
Here's that extended Avengers scene, plus clips from Scream, Pitch Perfect 2, and Ant-Man.
The MTV Movie Awards did the world a kindness and unspooled an extended look at that Avengers: Age of Ultron Hulkbusting scene we've seen teased so many times. It needs no introduction, so without further ado, here's roughly 90 seconds of some truly destructive drama. Not to mention a very cool robo-amputation maneuver and some very Dragon Ball Z fighting choreography. Oh, there were some other clips of interest that also were unveiled. Enjoy them all below.
Avengers: Age of Ultron:
The first trailer for the TV adaptation of Scream debuted, and it looks deliciously absurd. It involves cyberbullying, so kudos to MTV for keeping with the times. The show premieres June 30.
Pitch Perfect 2:
There was also this totally '90s clip from Pitch Perfect 2 that featured David Cross as an a cappella–throwdown emcee.
Paper Towns:
The first clip from the adaptation of John Green's Paper Towns dropped, and Cara Delevingne's character is a huge goofball.
We got another quality look at the ant suit in action, thanks to this Ant-Man trailer preview. (The official trailer drops tomorrow on Marvel's website.)
George Clooney is very flustered about the future.

Part of Czech émigré Ivan Steiger's large collection is displayed on the two floors of this museum in the castle grounds. Brief texts accompany cases of toys, from teddy bears to an elaborate tin train set. Kitsch fans will love the robots and the enormous collection of Barbie dolls, clad in vintage costumes from throughout the decades. The museum is good for a rainy day but is probably better for the young at heart than the actually young, most of whom prefer playing with toys to looking at them from a historical perspective.

UPDATE: For full coverage and live updates from transfer deadline day, click here.
Transfer deadline day in Europe isn't until Thursday, but the craziness and flurry of player movement that annually come with it have arrived a day early this year.
The big name is Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who, one day after he was reportedly off the Chelsea, is now set to become a Liverpool player sometime in the next 24 hours.
But Ox isn't the only one on the move. West Brom has signed players from Arsenal and PSG in a span of a few hours, Swansea is reportedly close to capturing a pricey Bayern Munich starlet on loan, and Tottenham has signed one defender, with a second reportedly close.
Here are the biggest signings, the most trustworthy reports and the juiciest rumors from Wednesday:
*denotes a loan move. Italics denote the move is not yet official
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain | Arsenal —> Liverpool — Entering the last year of his deal and having reportedly turned down a lucrative extension, Ox was ready to move on from Arsenal. The Gunners reportedly agreed a £35 million fee with Chelsea on Monday, but the England international preferred to join Liverpool, whom he supported as a kid. The Reds have reportedly agreed to a similar deal, and the signing could be imminent. Oxlade-Chamberlain was reportedly undergoing a Medical at Liverpool late Wednesday.
Ox will likely slide into a James Milner-esque utility role at Anfield. He can play wide in a front three, as one of the two shuttlers in a fierce Jurgen Klopp midfield, or even as a fullback. The £35 million represent a slight overpay for a player on the last year of his contract who has always been more associated with potential than performance. But his age, 24, and Britishness – as crazy as that sounds – certainly bumped up his price. Klopp will be hoping to tap into the untapped potential.
Some will claim that Ox's development was hindered at Arsenal. That he needed to get out from under Arsene Wenger's wing. The move to Liverpool will answer questions of whether his underachievement has been due to personal factors or situational ones.
Serge Aurier | PSG —> Tottenham — Tottenham needed a right back, and it needed one badly. It's just unfortunate that this is the right back it chose. Aurier has reportedly been granted a work permit and will join Spurs for £23 million. That will and should prompt criticism stemming from his disgusting history of violence and homophobic slurs. He's a fine soccer player, but that doesn't make him a good signing.
*Renato Sanches | Bayern Munich —> Swansea — It's not yet a done deal, but Sanches – a 20-year-old Portuguese midfield who moved to Bayern last summer for a base fee of €35 million – is reportedly on the verge of joining Swansea on a season-long loan. The loan fee could be around £2 million. As for how Sanches will adapt to what could be a relegation battle? Who the heck knows.
Kieran Gibbs | Arsenal —> West Brom — Gibbs had fallen far out of favor at Arsenal, giving way to Nacho Monreal and now Sead Kolasinac as well. But for only £7 million, he's a fantastic signing for West Brom. He fits the Baggies' fullback mold: athletic, decently sized and solid at the back. He's very unexceptional, which is unacceptable at Arsenal, but very acceptable for Tony Pulis. And he's still only 27.
*Grzegorz Krychowiak | PSG —> West Brom — PSG paid €30 million for Krychowiak just last summer, but made just 11 appearances for the French club in 2016-17. And in a World Cup year, the Polish defensive midfielder needed first-team opportunities. He'll get just that on a season-long loan at West Brom. The Baggies reportedly wanted to include an option to buy in the deal, but PSG refused.
Keita Balde Diao | Lazio —> Monaco — Monaco has plenty of cash to spend, and its latest big-money signing is the Lazio winger who'll reportedly cost €30 million. It's not a bad price for an exciting, even if inconsistent 22-year-old.
Juan Foythe | Estudiantes —> Tottenham — A 19-year-old ball-playing Argentinean center back who is one for the future. The price is reportedly £8 million.
*Benedikt Howedes | Schalke —> Juventus — A season-long loan deal with an option to buy. The initial loan fee is 3.5 million. The purchase option is 13 million, and becomes an obligation if Howedes plays 25 or more games for Juventus this upcoming season, according to the club.
Jeremy Toljan | Hoffenheim —> Borussia Dortmund — Lukasz Piszczek is 32. Dortmund needed to nail down a right back of the future this summer. And in Toljan, 23, it probably got one. Toljan impressed at the U-21 European Championships this past summer as Germany won the competition, and he's probably the best young German right back after Bayern's Joshua Kimmich. The deal will reportedly cost only £5 million, with Felix Passlack heading in the other direction on a two-year loan.
*Jordy Clasie | Southampton —> Club Brugge — Season-long loan.

Quick Reference
A class of asteroid whose members are rare in the main belt but which are increasingly encountered beyond 3.3 AU from the Sun, a distance at which an asteroid has an orbital period exactly half that of Jupiter (i.e. a 2 : 1 resonance). D-class asteroids have a very low albedo (0.02–0.05) and a generally featureless reflectance spectrum. They are very red at longer wavelengths, possibly due to carbon-rich material. Members of this class include (1256) Normannia (a member of the Hilda group), diameter 69 km, and many Trojan asteroids, including (911) Agamemnon, diameter 167 km.

"A great read (as ever). Fascinatingly educational on a country about which I had known nothing… I wish you all the best with this work with its three strands – the personal, the national and the spiritual. Love it!" William Scobie a.k.a., Alexander Tait, (author of Whisky In the Jar; Upon This Rock; The Cup; Mightier Than the Sword).
Jefferson Kollie has a story to tell, a true story, a harrowing story. To meet
is to like him. His smile is warm and his eyes are bright. His manner is friendly
and his voice is quiet. Who could guess the hurt this man carries in his heart
or the hellfire he's passed through? His broad shoulders appear capable of
carrying the weight of the world. Let us begin by introducing this remarkable
I heard about Jeff from one of his workmates. "This man has an amazing story! Someone should write a book," he said. I was intrigued. I had bumped into Jeff when I was "scouting" for the work's soccer team. After a hiatus of many years I had rediscovered and had somewhat recaptured the glory of my youth (at age 59) while playing indoor soccer, which is fast and furious, energetic and frenetic when compared to the outdoor version of the game. Anyway, Jeff expressed super-keenness about becoming involved. Of course, and as these things go, because of busyness at work any participation in "the beautiful game" has yet to happen! "O well then Jeff, in the meantime we can always try to write down your story.
A Bit of Background
I met with Jeff formally and began scribbling down a pile of notes as we chatted. In soft-spoken tones he began telling me his story. I would interrupt and get him to elaborate on certain points. Upon hearing it from the horse's mouth I became even more intrigued by Jeff's story (and also the country of
) as I began piecing it all
together. Liberia
Jefferson has enjoyed breathing the fresh air of freedom since touching down on the red earth of
in 2010. He came as a refugee from his native Australia Africa.
Drawing his first breath in 1985 in the West African country of Liberia, both whose flag (which was modelled
after The Star-spangled Banner) and his name betray Liberia's
connection with the . "Jefferson" is a
tipping-of-the-hat to one of the founding fathers of United
States of America and principle author of the
Declaration of Independence, viz., Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826). Indeed, as per
the line in the American National Anthem, " America " means "Land of the Free"
in Latin. Liberia
"So you're named after one of the presidents of the
? I love
Thomas Jefferson and all that Declaration of Independence stuff!" "So do I,"
Jeff replied. I had noticed that his workmates call him by his last name,
Kollie. "Which do you prefer," I enquired, "Kollie or Jefferson?" "Call me
Jeff," he smiled. After Jeff had left I just had to learn more about United States of America . Liberia
Let's paint a bit more background on the canvas of Jeff's story. The
declared its independence from American colonisation on 26 July, 1847. However,
it was not until during the America Civil War, (on 5 February 1862), that the Republic of Liberia
recognised Liberian independence. From 1822 onwards, and particularly from the
time of the War Between the States, United States Jefferson's
old country began to receive an influx of over fifteen thousand freeborn Black
Americans and over three thousand Afro-Caribbeans[1],
and also freed slaves. Thus the American influences on , which included
Republicanism and the freedom ideal. Liberia

is no oppressor there will be no pauper hirelings[2] free state
It seems as if Jefferson has acted upon this free advice of the third President of the
to her
fifth president, becoming a private in the Australian Army in February 2015. United States of America Jefferson wears his uniform proudly. I saw him marching
with his battalion on ANZAC Day. Brisbane
Annual Patriotism
There is one day of each year when Australians become ultra-patriotic flag-wavers, i.e., ANZAC Day. Apart from that one special day, as a general rule, Aussies tend be somewhat more reserved than, say, the Americans when it comes to visibly expressing love for country.
In some ways migrants, such as
Jefferson, can become more
patriotic than native born Australians. No doubt this may be because most native
born Australians know nothing other than the peace and freedom
has afforded them. This creates a tendency to take these things for granted. Whereas
the migrant, knowing what he or she has given up and left behind, fully
embraces and appreciates the protection and freedom Australia affords them.
This in turn gives an added incentive for them to thrive and to prosper as they
forge a new life in their new country. But, Australia Jefferson
is not just any-old migrant. He is a refugee.
He fled to
for safety from murderous pursuers… Australia
Fighting For What?
I used to cynically believe that many Australian soldiers fight for the two Ms, viz., money and medals. It seems I need to add a third and more important M to my list, viz., mates. It seems to me that mates are more worthy of fighting for than money and medals.
Australian soldiers do not fight for lofty ideals of democracy or freedom. Australian soldiers, it has been said many times and with great truth, fight for their mates.[3]
Though Jefferson no doubt loves his mates, and would zealously fight for them, to the contrary, Jefferson Kollie wanted to sign-up with the Australian Army primarily to fight for the lofty ideals of democracy and freedom. He originally wanted to join as an Infantryman but colour-blindness precluded his fulfilling this ambition. He signed-up on 10 February, 2015. This young man who speaks English with an African accent – and, while living in Ghana, learnt to speak Ga, Twi and Hausa, and also who understands Kru, Ewé and Fante – is currently employed as a Storeman, and drives forklifts both great and small.
Thank you for bearing with Jeff's story thus far. We were about to part company when, thinking of the trauma he must have gone through, I asked him how all of his past had affected him. There was pain etched on windows of his soul. But as a small cloud blows past the face of the sun so his eyes brightened and a wide smile lit up the room. "I'm fine!"
Before we enter with him into the valley of the shadow of death Jeff would like you to know ("spoiler alert!") that his story has a happy ending of sorts – lest he leave you traumatised!
First off, you need to know that
Jefferson is unashamedly
Christian, (as is his biographer). Indeed, like every good fairytale, Jefferson is now as it were living happily ever after
with beautiful wife, and their three lovely children. His wife is originally
from Liberia too, but they
met in the humble circumstances of living in a refugee camp in
where they subsequently got married. However, just as every good fairytale
contains its share of make-believe evil witches and malevolent goblins, so Ghana Jefferson's story describes battles against the evil
forces of darkness, only, unlike fairytales, this is in the real world. As Scripture
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.[4]
Jeff and his family currently attend a church in
. Brisbane
During the day sometimes
Jefferson is attacked in a surprise
ambush by the odd flashback of past traumatic events, and, in bed the
occasional nightmare gallops roughshod echoing through the dark alleys of his
mind. There is always something panting behind Jefferson,
something that darts off into the shadows whenever he turns around to confront
it. For one who has experienced trauma stacked upon trauma Jefferson
has been remarkably resilient, (a quality the Australian Army craves). When it
comes to resilience Jefferson, by the grace of
God, is one of the fortunate ones, as General Cantwell writes,
Not everyone who experiences the traumas of war will develop PTSD, but in some people, especially if the trauma is intense, the horror and fear can become imprinted in the memory. This is a natural process; it's okay not to feel okay.[5]
Thank God
Jefferson is safe now and he is feeling okay.

Only in Chicago -- a city where people pride themselves on keeping plans in the face of bad weather -- could a road race with nearly 14,000 people running through thick slush and frigid puddles be deemed a low turnout.
A little more than 30,000 people had registered for today's 30th annual Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle, an 8K race that takes runners from Grant Park through River North and the Loop. Usually, the race is a sign in the running community that spring has come, but it was in the 30s and gusty at the 9:30 a.m. start.Despite the winter weather advisory, thousands of hearty runners took off in the snow and slush at the start of the Shamrock Shuffle on Columbus Drive at Jackson Boulevard this morning.

The action, at least televised, kicks off in Thailand with a show on Channel 7. Unfortunately despite the fact we know there is a televised card we're completely unsure as to who will be on it or what fights are expected to take place on it.
Although the Thai action is pretty unknown at this point we do know that there will also be action in Australia.
The Australian show will see Michael Correa (3-6-3, 1), of the Philippines, fighting George Kambosos Jr (2-0, 1) in a bout for the Australia New South Wales State Lightweight title and Nathan Wright (1-0) taking on Jayson Mac Gura (1-18-3, 1), also of the Philippines.
The final bout with an Asian interest takes place in the UK as Youssef Al Hamidi (12-61-3, 1), originally from Syria, fights Callum Winton (2-0-1). Al Hamidi, one of the best "journeymen" on the planet will be taking part in his twelfth of the year, and will be hoping for his first victory of 2013.

I'm so excited to share this with you – Hallie from Daily Bites is kicking off a mini-series where some of my favorite gluten-free bloggers you might not have met yet will be guest posting here.
I could eat at Hallie's house every day of the week, three times a day. And be happy. Read on, I'm sure you'll understand why.
If you like Hallie's take on food, why not subscribe to her RSS feed? I do.
Carrot Cake Bites -a guest post from Hallie at Daily Bites
When people ask me what I eat–being gluten-free and all–I've learned that it's far more optimistic and less overwhelming to start off by telling them all the wonderful foods I can eat instead of what I cannot. I eat as much quinoa, millet, brown rice, buckwheat, or amaranth as I want, I tell them. I gobble down nuts and seeds like a squirrel, snack on dried fruit by the handfuls, and enjoy lean proteins like fish, eggs, chicken, beans, and legumes. But the mainstays of my diet–the skeleton, if you will, upon which everything else hangs–are fruits and vegetables. And this is the point I want to talk about today.
If you're cutting out anything from your diet–be that gluten, dairy, sugar, soy, eggs, meat, or something else–I urge you to remember this: throughout the food-removal process, always be sure that you're getting in enough fruits and vegetables. What do I mean by enough? Aim for five or more servings of vegetables per day and two or more of fruit.
Throughout my studies in nutrition education and my experience teaching cooking classes to people with food allergies, I cannot tell you how many times I've encountered folks who just don't eat fresh produce! Although many people follow a gluten-free diet, too often they replace the gluten-containing products (like bread, pasta, sweets, and baking mixes) with the exact same products labeled "gluten-free." These products, while indeed free of gluten, are often laden with refined flour, sugar, artificial flavors and colors, and preservatives. Meat-free dieters face the same conundrum. I've met lots of vegetarians and vegans who refuse to eat meat but instead load up on processed frozen veggie burgers that–sadly–contain very few vegetables at all.
So no matter what you cannot eat, I challenge you to replace those foods with more fresh fruits and vegetables instead of the [you fill in the blank]-free substitutes. Not many people are allergic to dark leafy greens, root vegetables, carrots, celery, fresh berries, apples, or broccoli! Load up your plate with colorful, vibrant foods that are as close to their natural state as possible. With great recipes featuring fresh produce available out there from blogs like this one (thanks, Amy!) and many others, the ways to prepare fruits and vegetables are nearly endless.
To help send you on your merry way to eating a colorful diet or to boost your efforts if you're already headed in that direction, below is a recipe for what I call Carrot Cake Bites. These are delicious little treats made without all of the "great whites": refined white flour, sugar, syrups, or starches lacking in vitamins and minerals. Even though you'll feel like you're eating dessert as you munch on these guys, there's actually a little dried fruit and vegetable goodness in every bite!
Yields 12 - 15 balls
This recipe was provided by Hallie of Daily Bites.
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and roughly chopped (about ¾ cup)
- ½ cup raw walnuts
- ¼ cup raw cashews
- ¾ cup dates, pitted and roughly chopped (about 5-6 large dates)
- 1 tsp. freshly grated ginger
- ½ tsp. cinnamon
- Zest of one orange, optional
- Sesame seeds or unsweetened shredded coconut, for rolling
- In a food processor fitted with the S-blade, process carrots until finely ground. Remove and set aside.
- Process the walnuts and cashews in the food processor (no need to clean it out) until finely ground. Add the dates and process until finely chopped and incorporated into the nuts. Add the reserved carrots, ginger, cinnamon, and orange zest (if using) and process until dough forms.
- Shape the mixture into 12-15 small balls. Roll in sesame seeds or shredded coconut to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve, or up to five days.
Thanks, Hallie, for sharing your wisdom and a delicious, nutritious recipe!

The in-house campaign consisted of full-page ads in several leading Italian daily newspapers featuring a naked woman in a suggestive pose with her back to the camera and the words: "Why pay for something you can have for free?"
NoPay.it is a new company that offers Internet services to users free of local telephone charges and other fees in return for allowing streaming advertising across the computer screen.
The newspaper ads caused outrage among feminist groups, which called onItalian legal authorities to pull the ad. Authorities took no official action, but the company stopped the campaign voluntarily after five days. An official from the company declined to comment on the issue.
"This is an issue about the manner in which women are portrayed," says Federica Rossi, a spokeswoman for the national housewives association. "This particular ad hit a new level of bad taste."

Capital region bears brunt of ice storm
Ice causes slick roads and power outages
Capital region bears brunt of ice storm
Ice causes slick roads and power outages
AUGUSTA, Maine —
Augusta is among the areas hit hardest by the ice storm in Southern and Central Maine.
The capital region had 3/4 of an inch of ice by Monday morning, with more ice accumulating throughout the day.
Road conditions are also very slick and at least one vehicle went off the northbound side of Interstate 295 by the Gardiner exit.
The Maine Turnpike Authority has lowered the speed limit on the highway to 45 mph.
Most main roads have been treated and are wet, but with the temperature hovering around freezing, there are still icy spots.
As of noon, more than 26,000 Central Maine Power customers were without power. More than 5,000 were in Kennebec County.

UFC president Dana White doesn't think it will take the promotion very long to return to New Mexico after tonight's UFC Fight Night 42 event goes down from Albuquerque.
White, during an interview earlier this week with the Albuquerque Journal, stated his feelings regarding the city and his thoughts on the lineup they have put together.
"Albuquerque's one of those towns that I have a lot of respect for when it comes to combat sports," he said. "When you think of the big fight towns, you always think of Boston, Philadelphia, Vegas, Atlantic City, and believe it or not, Albuquerque, New Mexico is one of those places for me."
The card features former UFC lightweight champion Benson Henderson meeting Rustam Khabilov in the main event. That, though, is far from the only contest that has White excited.
"This card is awesome," he stated. "How about Diego Sanchez vs. Ross Pearson? How about John Moraga vs. John Dodson, another sick fight. The (Rafael) dos Anjos (vs. Jason High) fight. Erik Perez-Bryan Caraway.
"It's a stacked card, top to bottom."
Sanchez, a native of New Mexico, will receive a hero's welcome when he enters the Octagon. The former Ultimate Fighter winner is one of the main reasons Albuquerque caught the eye of the MMA world, according to White.
"Pretty much, Diego's stint on The Ultimate Fighter is what really kicked this thing off, then Keith Jardine followed that up," White said. "Diego put Jackson's on the map and put Albuquerque on the map as far as mixed martial arts goes.
"Albuquerque's not stranger to combat sports. If you look back to the days with the Pit, (Johnny) Tapia, it's always been a huge combat sports town."
FightLine will be providing complete coverage of the entire card, including play-by-play, later this evening.
