The Switch Digion Television system is a cutting-edge, extremely reliable CATV television solution that features perfect picture and sound.
The 100% digital signal means that viewers can expect crystal clear audio and video meant for today's advanced television screens*. Digion headends are meant for newer camp and lodge facilities which supply rooms with televisions built with digital QAM tuners, which include most models manufactured after 2012.
Switch Digion Television systems do not require access authorizations for the headend receivers to function. All receivers in the headend are pre-authorized and configured. Channel lineups can be set remotely, eliminating the need for a technician visit should the system manager wish to change the programming for a particular channel. In addition, the receivers themselves are enterprise-grade, resulting in a robust, reliable system.
The number of channels in a Switch Digion TV system are easily scaled up from the standard 24-channel lineup to either 48 channels or 72. This means that as your viewers' demands for more channels grow, so can your television system.
With our digital television packages, you have the choice to add either or both of our movie packs. Movie Pack #1 includes Encore Avenue, HBO East/West and Movie Central. Movie Pack #2 includes Super Channels 1-4, Sundance Channel, TCM and Mystery TV.
The Switch Digion Headend is a very compact unit, a half to a quarter of the size of a traditional analog headend. This results in less space being required to house the headend as well as less power being needed.
Switch Digion TV Systems are IP-stream capable, meaning that the headend is already set up to provide Switch Iris IPTV**, with minimal configuration.
Switch Digion headends require only one satellite dish to operate, resulting in a quicker and less expensive installation. Auto-aiming dishes and redundancy are also available, resulting in the ultimate in trouble- and maintenance-free operation. /div>

Banded hawks subsequently encountered by humans are—hopefully—reported to the US Bird Banding Laboratory by the finder, and the GGRO receives a report of where the bird was found and what the circumstances were.
Banding recoveries help us answer questions about raptor populations we are tracking in our count studies—what are their geographical ranges? Recoveries also give us insight into causes of raptor injuries and deaths. GGRO band recovery maps are coming soon!
If you find a bird with a band on its leg, please report it to the Bird Banding Lab online at www.reportband.gov, or by calling 1-800-327-BAND (2263) from anywhere in Canada, the United States and most parts of the Caribbean. The operator will need to know the band number, how, when and where the bird or band was found. Please do not use this number to call them about other matters.
Please look out for color banded Red-tailed Hawks and Cooper's Hawks! GGRO has begun marking Red-tailed Hawks with lavender bands (below left) and Cooper's Hawks with green bands (below right). Each band has a 3-digit alpha-numeric code (a capital letter above a two-digit number) repeated twice around the band. If you see a color band on a hawk, please note whether it was on the bird's right or left leg, and try to read the code on the band or get a picture (e.g., through your spotting scope or with your digital camera). We hope to increase our ability to understand where these birds go, how long they live, their survival rates, and what habitats they use by collecting information about color banded individuals. Report sightings to the Bird Banding Laboratory at www.reportband.gov and call the GGRO with any questions at (415) 331-0730.

Blogger's Quilt Festival Spring 2013 - Home machine quilt
I love the Blogger's Quilt Festival and look forward to it each time it comes around. So much amazing creativity and inspiration. I am submitting my Birds and Bees Quilt that I finished in November last year. I think Birds and Bees by Tula Pink is my all time fav of all her ranges. I was lucky enough to have a jelly roll of this so used the "Dripping with Diamonds" pattern from Jelly Roll Dreams by Pam and Nicky Lintott. The jelly roll wasn't quite enough for all the diamonds, so I ordered more of my favourite fabrics from the range to make up the rest and to add to the back. I used Kona solids for the background and diamond centres.
I think I am particularly drawn to this range as it has many of my fav colours in it and I just adore those little ladybirds!
For the back I used my 3 fav fabrics and a Kona solid "Green Tea" which went really well with the purples and blues and I used a Deb Strain stripe for the binding.
I straight line quilted it on my Bernina as I thought this would show off the diamonds better. I wanted the fabric to be the focus not the quilting.
I think this is one of my all time fav quilts and it gets used all the time as a snuggle quilt.
Be sure to visit all the other amazing quilts in the festival

As I approached Zakynthos on the ferry, the sea had the supple smoothness of shark skin and the late haze of morning was rising up the green flanks of the island, leaving the houses of Zakynthos town bathed in sunlight. Further along the coast, bright daubs of red pantiles could be glimpsed through palm trees and sprays of pink bougainvillea. As we entered the harbour, the passengers crowded to the rails, most of them locals on the way home - priests and widows in black, the rest more colourful.
All the familiar ingredients of a perfect Greek morning. Now here are a few extra elements: death threats, beatings, illegal building, rampant corruption and shocking environmental degradation that threatens one of Europe's most endangered species, the loggerhead turtle, in its prime Mediterranean nesting area. None of this is readily visible on arrival, particularly if you are a first-time visitor like myself. I stepped off the ferry and looked around with an approving eye. After a five-day odyssey by train through Europe, I was looking forward to diving into that wine-dark sea, tasting some fish, drinking a few glasses of ouzo.
We usually accept places for what they are on first contact. Only when we return years later do we start to grumble, "It's ruined!" That morning, Zakynthos looked great. An hour later
I was standing on a hillside with Yannis Vardakastanis and I was seeing things differently.
Born on the island in 1964, Yannis has packed several incarnations into one life: teenage sailor on freighters to the far east, centre forward for Lincoln City Football Club, and beach-bar proprietor serving up drinks and good humour to the tourists on Zakynthos's Gerakas beach, one of the favourite egg-laying sites of the loggerhead turtle. Then, in 1990, standing at his bar on the sands, looking out over his uncle's loungers to his brother's pedalo operation, across the hundreds of tourists, he had an epiphany.
"That day there were 1,800 people coming to the beach and I realised I was completely wrong," he says. "Such a crowd of people in a turtle nesting area was doing a lot of damage. I decided everyone had to get out, get off the beach."
Turtle protection is certainly one of environmentalism's toughest assignments, not only because of the conflict with tourist development. In winter the Zakynthos loggerheads migrate to the north African coast, Malta and Sardinia, further complicating the story. By the time a turtle has dodged the many hazards - fishermen's nets, plastic bags, seagulls, tourists' sunloungers - only one in a thousand will make it back to the beach of its birth and breed.
The realisation that turtle numbers were falling led Yannis to do the unthinkable: he dismantled his beach bar and moved it on to land above the beach. His family thought he was crazy, but in fact he had become what at the time was another of the island's rare species: an environmental activist.
"When I was a kid," he says, "I'd be alone on the beach and go out swimming with the turtles and dolphins. In summer the beach at Gerakas would be black with hatchlings. I didn't appreciate it at the time, but I was living in God's pocket."
For the past 18 years Yannis has been working to restore a little bit of that lost paradise. His small group of cottages at Gerakas offers a very different experience to the island's resorts: quiet, simple accommodation in the gardens and olive groves behind the beach. The nightlife, apart from the cicadas, consists of the local builder and his sons, who do a mean set of classic folk songs at the taverna. The main beach at Gerakas is never crowded, but for real seclusion there are a couple of rocky coves where there is room to stretch out a towel or two. I went snorkelling in one of them with my son, Conor, and we found ourselves watching squid moving among shoals of tiny colourful fish. The turtles, however, did not put in an appearance.
"It's the turtles that highlight the problems on the island," Yannis says. "Their nesting sites are the main tourist beaches, and their nesting time is exactly the same as the European holiday season. We have to find a way that humans and animals can co-exist."
At Gerakas beach, it seems they are finding a way. It has not been easy - Yannis has had to deal with everything from death threats to the anger of members of his own family - but now Gerakas is the best beach on the island. The pedalos have gone, as have the beach bars and food sellers, and only about 120 sunbeds remain. At sunset the beach closes to all except turtle protection workers. Yannis has his own conservation group, Earth Sea and Sky, which works with Archelon, a Greek NGO. Volunteers from the two organisations patrol the island's beaches, counting and marking nests and keeping night-time vigils as the turtles come in to lay their eggs. Those I spoke to were full of enthusiasm and many had been coming for several summers. "I love the night-time beach patrols, watching the turtles climb up the beach in the moonlight," a British volunteer with Archelon told me. He was in his third summer and already planning a fourth.
To this first-timer, standing on a hillside looking over the southern side of the island, things seem pretty good. The hillsides look fresh and green, the sea deliciously cool, but then Yannis starts to point out a few things. "See the tower over there? That's the airport. They built it on top of our only lake, which was a major migration point for thousands of birds, including flamingoes." I give myself a pat on the back for not arriving by air.
Then he stands up and his accusing finger moves to the left, to the crust of development at the end of the bay. "That is Laganas, the main tourist town for Zakynthos, very popular with the British. I want to show you Laganas." We drive down. The green of the hills gives way to an ugly mess of scrubland and concrete ribbon development, and then we are into Laganas: bars, strip joints, cheap drinks. A pair of shirtless youths roll across the street guffawing drunkenly. The majority of the island's visitors are British - more than 600,000 of them every year. Laganas is where this summer nine British female tourists found themselves charged with prostitution after taking part in an "oral sex competition" in one of the bars. Yannis doesn't get out of the car; he cannot bear Laganas.
I wander along the packed beach. The sea is full of swimmers and boats. There are glass-bottomed boats huddled together, circling a turtle while everyone gets the essential photo. Most turtle injuries on the island are caused by boat propellers. A girl assails me with an offer of a turtle-watching trip. Her sign says, "We care for the turtles!"
"How do you care?" I ask.
She smiles. "We don't kill them by driving the boat over them."
"Until the 1980s Laganas, with the airport just behind it, was a big freshwater ecosystem as well as the main nesting site for loggerhead turtles," Yannis says. "Now the sand is packed so hard that no turtle could ever make a nest, even if it wanted to. All the building here on the beach is illegal. It is just a big club for 18 to 30s, and with all the drunkenness it has become a very dangerous place.
"Gerakas has been a success, but now I want to extend that success - I'm taking the message to the heart of the problem." He is building a turtle rescue centre in Laganas to raise awareness of the issue. It is a courageous move, and one that will bring him into possible conflict with powerful vested interests. "Every year there are injured animals and I think they should be treated here - and then released back into the bay," he says.
From Laganas we head up to the Archelon camp. Chris Dean, a British biologist, the project's co-ordinator, says: "We have had local hostility in the past seven years. Some of our people were beaten up and the camp has been targeted." He grins. "But things are getting better now. I reckon our message is getting through."
Yannis is more cautious. "Loggerheads take at least 25 years to reach sexual maturity, so we haven't yet felt the full effects of the beach development." Those turtles circling off Laganas are not posing for photographs, but are simply disoriented, having returned to their native beach to find it destroyed.
Yannis takes me over the hill to see two beaches that are supposed to have full protection, being part of a marine park that was established in 1999. The first shock is to see a landfill tip inside the park boundaries. The guard refuses to allow us close enough to take photographs. "Apart from pollution problems, the tip attracts seagulls, the main predator of baby turtles, and it is right above Dafni beach, a major nesting area," Yannis says. What is most surprising about this rubbish dump, as announced on a noticeboard outside, is that it was 75% funded by a €1m grant from the EU.
Further down the track are more unpleasant surprises. Dafni beach has several illegal buildings, including two tavernas. The Greek government has been committed to clearing the buildings since 1984, but it seems the authorities are big on legislation, but short on action. The road barrier at Dafni, intended to keep cars out, is up and clearly unused. An Archelon volunteer tells me that the beach here is not patrolled by the turtle-watchers because the locals are too hostile.
Sekania, the adjoining beach and the most important nesting site on the island, has been made out of bounds to visitors. This, says Dean, is proof that the marine park is starting to fulfil its purpose. "We've got 185 nests there this season," he says.
Yannis and the Archelon workers represent a future for Zakynthos in which tourists and turtles each have a place. Back at Gerakas, watching Yannis's father's donkey graze contentedly under the olive trees, it seems to me that it is the cheap glitz of Laganas whose days are numbered.
How you can help
Earth Sea and Sky (earthseasky.org), set up by Yannis Vardakastanis, runs volunteer projects and activities throughout the summer. Contact email@example.com or visit the information centre in Gerakas, Zakynthos. A week's accommodation in a studio (sleeps 2-3) at Gerakas costs from £410. Archelon (archelon.gr) welcomes volunteers from early May to late October. The minimum stay is 28 days and volunteers pay a minimum fee of €150. They have free use of a campsite, which has basic sanitary and cooking facilities (cold water showers, gas stoves and fridges, cooking pots and pans, cutlery, crockery). Volunteers staff the visitor centre, patrol the beach, and monitor the turtles through the summer from egg-laying to hatching.
Way to go
To reach Zakynthos without using the airport. From Athens Kifissou bus station coaches run four times daily to Kyllini from where ferries sail to Zakynthos town. Alternatively take the train to Bari in Italy, overnight ferry to Patras, bus to Kyllini and finally ferry to Zakynthos.

Mitt Romney will benefit from the Supreme Court health-care ruling, though Chief Justice John Roberts should be "ashamed" of his role in the decision, businessman Donald Trump told CNBC.
The conservative jurist provided the deciding vote in a 5-4 ruling that said the health-care plan's individual mandate, which requires Americans to have health insurance, passed constitutional muster.
While the decision allows the Affordable Care Actto go into law, Trump said the ultimate winner could be President Barack Obama's Republican challenger Romney.
"This was a big one," Trump said during his weekly "Squawk Box" appearance Tuesday. "This energized the Republican Party like never before. I think it's going to maybe elect Mitt Romney."
As for Roberts, who ruled with the majority that the individual mandateis constitutional so long as it's considered a tax rather than a penalty, Trump had harsh words.
"John Roberts should be ashamed of himself," he said. "He's looking like a dummy. His decision was not written by the supposedly smart man he is .... The decision makes no sense."
Trump speculated that Roberts sided with the court's liberal justices in an effort to appease the Washington establishment by giving "a Georgetown-type of opinion."
"Now they love him in Washington," Trump said. "That's probably what he wanted. I think that's the sole reason he did it."
The Obama administration had resisted calling the health-care reform measure a "tax," insisting that it instead applied a penalty against the uninsured who refused to purchase a plan. Trump said the distinction will hurt Obama politically. (See how Romney and Obama agree on at least one part of the health-care law.)
"The big winner is going to be Mitt Romney," he said. "I've never seen the Republicans coalesce like they have in the last three days since this ridiculous decision."

Why the NBA joined the respondents battling Kantar in the courts
MUMBAI: When Kantar Market Research Services, a shareholder of TAM media research, decided to go to court to legally oppose one of the guidelines that had been recently approved by the cabinet committee on economic affairs, it raised some eyebrows though the move was not unexpected. And even though Kantar was not given a stay on the legality of the cross holding legislation that it has been seeking, what came as a surprise on day two of the hearing was when the News Broadcasters Association (NBA) was made a party to the case.
What made the biggest news broadcasting representative body in the country decide to intervene in the case and be subsequently made a part of it? Contrary to what many may believe, the NBA is not against Kantar but rather it is in favour of the guidelines. ?We went as interveners to show our support to the approved guidelines and the court decided that we should be a part of it,? says a senior official from the NBA.
The news organisation has always been vocal on the alleged irregularities and kinks in TAM?s rating system. ?We had decided a while ago that we would make a mention of our support in court. Change in the way the ratings are delivered has been pending for several years and finally the moment of truth has arrived and so we don?t need it to be stalled again,? informed the official.
In mid-2013, several news channels members of the NBA had decided to boycott TAM claiming that its TV ratings data was rigged. Voices in support of the upcoming agency the Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC) grew overwhelmingly. The NBA now feels that there could be no better time than now for the guidelines to come into effect.
The case which is ongoing in the Delhi High Court is now being fought by the petitioner Kantar against the government of India, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) and the NBA. In media interviews Kantar has stated that it won?t go down so easily and that the cross holding guideline it has challenged will make its life and existence a misery.
In the hearing on 29 January, the HC decided not to give a stay order to Kantar since the regulation was promulgated by a statutory body ? the TRAI. On the same day, the NBA pointed out that TAM operates on a small sample size of just 8,000 people. The case will next be heard on 11 February.
All the three respondents have a week?s time to file their respective affidavits to the court.
In October last year when the ad cap case was ongoing in the Telecom Disputes Settlement Appellate Tribunal (TDSAT), three broadcasters namely Star, Zee and Viacom18 had tried to become interveners in support of the 12 minute ad cap regulation but they had been barred from doing so since their representative body - the Indian Broadcasting Foundation - had decided to withdraw the appeal against the ad cap. However, the NBA claims it has consistently been vocal about its views on TV viewership ratings, hence its candidature as an intervener has validity.
The key questions now are whether the HC will offer a lifeline to TAM by imposing a stay on implementation of the cross holding guideline or whether will it cut off its oxygen supply?

First New Jersey, now California. The cash-strapped state, which begged for, and got, a "bridge" loan from JP Morgan as recently as October 2010 (the same bank that recently bailed out Chris Christie), is asking for another bridge to the old bridge loan, ergo a "bridge bridge" loan. The excuse: the potential upcoming government shutdown, which would lock California out of the muni market. Surely the fact that it already has little to no cash left was not a part of the equation. BusinessWeek reports: "California is considering seeking a bridge loan from Wall Street ahead of an Aug. 2 deadline for raising the federal debt ceiling, in case talks fail and send the bond market into turmoil, Treasurer Bill Lockyer said. Proceeds from the loan would be used to help pay the state's bills until Lockyer can sell an estimated $5 billion of so-called revenue-anticipation notes, or RANs, scheduled for late August. Without those notes, the state could run out of cash as it did in 2009, when it issued $2.6 billion of IOUs." Of course if the US is downgraded, Meredith Whitney's prediction will come true with a bang: as part of its warning yesterday, Moody's also threatened to downgrade 7000 municipal ratings which would halt RAN, and any other, issuance for an indefinite period of time. And while this is merely more M.A.D. posturing to help the debt ceiling dispute come to a speedy resolution, the fact that California is now forced to issue new bridge loans to "bridge" old ones is oddly troubling.
"We are hoping to get our borrowing done before Aug. 2," Lockyer told reporters following a speech yesterday in Sacramento.
A failure to raise the nation's $14.3 trillion debt limit would lead to a "major crisis" and throw "shock waves" through the financial system, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said yesterday at a House Financial Services Committee hearing.
Moody's Investors Service put the U.S. under review yesterday for a credit rating downgrade, adding to concern that political gridlock will lead to a default. The company warned it may lower 7,000 ratings on $130 billion in municipal debt backed by U.S. Treasury or other federal securities or repaid with federal money such as Medicaid grants and economic-stimulus aid if the U.S. loses its top rating.
Lockyer said he's concerned about the possibility of federal delays in Medicare subsidies and other payments to California and about long-term reductions in U.S. aid to states. A default, he said, could prompt the federal government to prioritize payments to states that would affect California's cash flow.
"The ripple effect on state and local finances is very substantial," he said. "Depending on how long the delay was, you might have a cash-flow hit. Of course, the budget negotiations might result in reduced payments to the states. There's two kinds of worry."
What would happen in a best case scenario?
The new bridge loan would be repaid by the RANs, which the state would pay off when the bulk of taxes is collected later in the year.
Lockyer sold $10 billion of RANs in November, including $2.25 billion of notes that came due in May with a yield of 1.5 percent and $7.75 billion that matured in June at 1.75 percent.
Those May notes yielded 98 basis points, or 0.98 percentage point, more than top-rated one-year debt at the time and the June notes yielded 123 basis points more, Municipal Market Advisors data show. California sold $8.8 billion of such notes in September 2009 and $5 billion the year before.
On the other hand, if there is indeed a downgrade, California's cash lockout would be the least of anyone's worries.

Yes I know rant about DP and how awful it is but business is business and I am determined to get mine... Anyways I have been doing this for about 4 years now and have yet to build a portfolio based site. Now I want opinions or testimonials... Does a unique portfolio based site increase sales of sites / services? After 4 years I get decent business at $100-300 a week doing odds and ends and building whole sites but I think if I had a portfolio built into a site then I would have more returning clients since they can just bookmark my portfolio... what is your opinion?

Selena Gomez Slams Perfume Giant With Counter Suit For Breach Of Contract
Selena Gomez is is counter suing a fragrance company that sued her for allegedly backing out of a multi-million dollar endorsement deal.
Gomez claims the perfume establishment called 'Adrenalina' owed her cash, $5.2 million to be exact, because their business was not doing well and fell apart.
A source told entertainment publication TMZ that Gomez backed out of the deal because she and her team realized the company was going broke.
In the court documents, Gomez's attorney Michael Weinsten, said that Adrenalina promised to pay the singer 5 percent royalty on sales of all Selena-brand scents, and guaranteed her minimum earnings of $5.2 million.
Weinsten also said that Gomez backed out because she was looking out for her reputation once she realized the perfume company could not afford her.
"Any claim that Selena did not meet her promotional obligations is ridiculous, manufactured after Adrenalina was terminated," he told TMZ.
"Selena will vigorously defend this lawsuit, and will soon bring her own lawsuit against Adrenalina for millions in damages."

"Hug me!"
Before the start of this Sunday's Service one of our Parish's youngsters fell down and bumped themselves against the pew and like most children began crying. Mom was just sitting down and tried to quiet the child when I thought I heard the youngster say to her, "Hug me!"
That got me to thinking, isn't that what most of us need and even a reason why we're in Church? Don't we want, aren't we beseeching even, our Father to "hug us" and make the hurt go away, if only a bit?
I'm not really the "huggy" type and have even been accused of being somewhat cold, but it's really not true. I was brought up without much physical contact and doubtless that colors my reaction to contact with others. I suppose that's why a "special touch" from someone important always means so much to me. But I have given and received "hugs" (am trying to do a better job of it, BTW) and moreover, I have yearned to be touched and held when I'm hurting. So, I understand why that child wanted physical comfort.
Carrying it one step further, isn't that what we seek in our relationship with God? Don't we long to be enfolded in His loving arms and offered the promise that He will make the hurt ease up and go away?
I've long considered our purpose in Faith and Worship. Is salvation the ultimate reason for faith or is it simply that we long to be "in relationship" with the Father? Or some of both? Myself, I'm moving towards relationship; for we are called to love God and each other. And it seems without the knowledge and support of the Father's unconditional love, life would be a much harder struggle than it already is.

|Good old Cesky Krumlov, VIA
T Minus 6 days until we leave for our big trip and I'm finally feeling a bit more settled with our plans. (Cutting it kind of close, right?) We've found an apartment in Vienna so that's a major load off my shoulders. Thanks again for the outpouring of Vienna/Europe related info and suggestions - I really appreciate it!
This weekend would normally be spent packing, getting last minute supplies, etc. but as I am a crazy person this is what is currently on the schedule:
Friday: Meetings, work related errands
Saturday: All day photo shoot with the fabulous Suwanee and Lindsey Rose Makeup.
Sunday: Continue covert Birthday planning operations for my sweetie - trust me, this is an all day job!
So there you have it. Come Monday I will be celebrating MR's birthday, shopping for last minute items, agonizing over what shoes to bring, and making sure we have all our travel papers, etc. together. MR keeps telling me that we need to be in work mode now, but then come Friday we can be as fancy free as we like!
I hope you have a restful and joyful weekend friends!

I launched CAN CAN Cleanse in San Francisco in December 2010. In the months leading up to the launch, I was juicing, blending and brewing up cleanses in my cozy SF apartment. My 3 roommates wondering what the heck I was doing staying up until well past midnight making "witch potions" yet always being so gracious and supportive allowing me to reign over the kitchen to the sound of my juicer and use every nook and cranny of the refrigerator (EB, Vale & Kristi, I'm so lucky to still call you all friends!)
It has been quite a journey for me personally and profesionally during these years of growth. I've enjoyed A LOT of juice, connected with thousands of wonderful clients, engaged with all sorts of like-minded industry folks, built a family of amazing employees, in addition to building a family of my own (B is 16 months old!) and now, with much pride, I celebrate the birth of my second business baby - CAN CAN Los Angeles!!!
We made it! From SF to LA. Kitchen is open. Juices are flowing.
We hope our SoCal friends will love cleansing with us. Yay!

King's Fork parlayed five third quarter turnovers into eight points Friday, rallying from a seven-point halftime deficit to defeat Carroll County 55-51 in a 4A State Quarterfinal at the Salem Civic Center.
Carroll County (23-4) turned the ball over just four times in the first half to build a 28-21 lead at the break. The Bulldogs adjusted with a smaller lineup, however, and turned up the defensive pressure after intermission. Constantly pressing the Cavaliers, Carroll struggled to get the ball past midcourt in the third quarter, with four of the five turnovers in the period leading to easy baskets, allowing King's Fork to take a 38-36 lead heading into the fourth quarter.
"We gave them a couple of easy baskets on turnovers in the backcourt. We can live with turnovers, but the live ball turnover that turns into two points – our defense is our staple and if we are turning the ball over in the backcourt, we can't guard it," Carroll County head coach Marc Motley said. "We struggle to get back in games if we get down. There at the end (we were) trying to chase and trap and we had some success out of it, but that is just not the type of game we can play. We had some success but their pressure got to us and turned us over. That was probably the difference in the ballgame."
Carroll County's last lead came at 36-33 on a Madisyn Dalton layup with 1:17 left in the third quarter. King's Fork scored the last five points of the period, however, and added four more to start the fourth to claim a 42-38 advantage. A pair of free throws each by Dalton and Mattie Kennedy tied the game at 42-all with 5:34 left, but the Cavaliers were never able to get the lead back.
"They ran 10 or 11 kids and I think they wore us down a little bit. Most teams that we play, they are playing seven or eight. They are not able to continually bring people off the bench that can run us, run us, run us," Motley said. "And I think that's where we had struggles a little bit. We just got tired I think."
Although King's Fork never led by more than four points over the final five minutes, Carroll never could quite get over the hump. After Kennedy's driving layup brought the Cavs to within a point at 52-51 with 59.2 seconds to play, Motley's team got a defensive stop. A tie-up gave the ball back to the Bulldogs, though, and Carroll was forced to foul. After a Cydney Nichols free throw increased the lead to two points, the Cavs turned the ball over with 16.4 second to play. Camary Harris sank two free throws with 11.2 seconds left to make it 55-51 and Carroll was not able to score in its final possession.
"I thought their coach made a really, really good adjustment. He went small to match us with us," Motley said. "As long as he was playing bigs, we were putting them in ball screens and they were really struggling to guard us. When he went small, he was able to get enough pressure to switch those ball screens every time…And they extended it full court and they kept it. And they kept rotating players in and I thought they just wore us down. We were passing it four or five times just to get it across halfcourt. We were taking care of if then, but then we weren't getting into our offense like we needed to."
Carroll struggled to start the game, turning the ball over on three of its first six possessions as King's Fork opened up an 11-2 lead in the game's first three minutes. Kennedy broke through with a 3-pointer, however, and Haley Turman and Dalton each scored baskets to key a 7-0 run that put Carroll back in the game at 11-9.
The Bulldogs extended the lead to 19-11 on a Harris 3-pointer to open the second quarter, but the Cavs answered with runs of 9-0 and 17-2 to end the half with a 28-21 lead. Mariah Carter scored two baskets in the big run, Keely Lundy nailed a pair of 3-pointers and Jade Holt scored six of her eight points during the quarter.
"We just settled in in the second quarter. I don't think they changed much in the first half," Motley said. "But in the second half they went small and kept their bigs out of the game except (Amesha Miller)…They did that and made a really good coaching decision to match up with us. My hat's off. They are very athletic."
Kennedy led Carroll with 14 points, while Carter, Dalton and Holt all scored eight. Lundy scored seven points and hit a pair of 3-pointers, but Carroll's strong outside shooting was limited to a 3-of-10 effort against King's Fork.
"They did a good job closing out on us at the 3-point line. I thought we had some kids that really, really stepped up and played for us," Motley said. "Maddie Dalton played about as well as I have seen her play all year, and Mattie and Keely always play well. Haley always plays hard. Her foul trouble may have hurt a little bit, but I just think their pressure got to us and wore us down a little bit."
Miller led the Bulldogs with 18 points and nine rebounds, while Harris netted 15 points for King's Fork. Despite the tough loss, Motley was still beaming with pride of what his team accomplished this season – 23 wins, a Conference 24 championship and a second-place finish in Region 4A West.
"I told my kids I don't think I have ever been any more proud of a group of kids that I have coached. I feel like they played like warriors the last two or three weeks," Motley said. "We are a completely different team than we were mid-to-late January. Our kids really decided that they didn't like losing that much. Early in the year I felt like I had two or three kids who were like that, and at the end of the year I had 12. When you've got 12 kids who are fighting for the exact same thing, it's enjoyable to coach, win or lose."

"Drink 8 cups of water a day for slimmer and healthier body."
"Eight cups of cool water a day is the best medicine."
"Drink 8 cups of water a day for plump skin."
"Drink 8 cups of water a day to fight disease."
"Water promotes fat burning and metabolism for weight loss(diet)."
"Drink 8 cups of water a day to prevent cold."
"Water is the best medicine for the skin."
"Drink 8 cups of water a day and live healthy."
These are the positive functions of water introduced by the press and various health columns.
Water is the major component of your body, especially the blood and the lymph, that maintains stable body temperature and creates healthy skin and muscles.
It is also deeply involved in the metabolism of your body, such as digestion, absorption, circulation, and discharge and works as the lubricator for your joints.
Water takes 60-85% of your body and you will feel severe thirst and pain if you lose 1-2% of it and you cannot survive even a week if you can't drink water at all.
You lose a total of 2.5ℓ of the moisture in your body a day – 0.6ℓ through respiration, 0.5ℓ through evaporation on the skin, and 1.4ℓ through bowel movement and urination – but only 1ℓ is supplemented from food intake and the metabolism.
Therefore, every adult needs an average of 1-2ℓ of additional water a day; according to the statistics, however, adults drink only 0.6ℓ of water a day in average.
'Slimming Water, Healthy Water' reminds you to drink water, the essential component of your body, regularly.
✔ It helps you to set a goal to drink water.
✔ Use the graphic UI on the screen to easily enter the amount of water you just drank.
✔ Open the calendar to select a date or view the amount of water you drank each day.
✔ You can check the list to keep a track of how many ℓ of water you drank every hour.
✔ Use View Graph feature to see your achievement and its trends compared to your goal.
✔ Set the alarm for up to 10 times a day to remind you to drink water.
Now, stay slim and healthy with 'Slimming Water, Healthy Water'!

School Lunches Should Be Filled with Nutrition, Not Red Tape
Have you ever wondered how school administrators decide what goes into school lunches? As is the case with most federally-run programs, there's a thick stack of instruction papers for that. On the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) webpage for the Food and Nutrition Services Department, you can find a copy of the 81-page rule that sets nutrition standards. According to the School Nutrition Association's (SNA) analysis and explanation of the latest rule for school lunch nutrition standards, the maximum number of calories a student in grades K-5 can have at lunch is 650. This is the first time in history the USDA has set a calorie cap on students.
The American Heart Association recommends that males aged 9-13 should have 1,800 calories per day, with females that same age just behind them at 1,600. This means your average 5th grade boy that only eats lunch at school will need to get 1,150 calories per day either outside of school hours or by purchasing extra snacks. Those snacks are not covered for children receiving free or reduced lunches.
To that same effect, there have been several media reports claiming that children are complaining they are still hungry after lunch. This is unacceptable, and because this new rule is so overly prescriptive, teachers are left with the challenge of teaching hungry students. Students and teachers aren't the only ones suffering under this new rule. I have been contacted by a school director in my district that has had to resort to instructing his cafeteria staff to count out how many tater tots each student gets just so he's in compliance with these new regulations.
At the heart of the issue – like so many issues facing our country today – is a fundamental difference about how much government control we need and how much we trust our parents to educate their children about nutrition. Those who advocated for and passed this change – including President Obama and many Democrats in Congress – believe that government needs to regulate people's individual behavior and choices. This goes right down to the type of food schools choose to purchase and how much of that gets distributed to the kids in their care.
I trust parents and administrators, who work hard every day to take care of kids, to make good decisions about how much food our children eat and what food is served. That's why I am a proud cosponsor of H.R. 6418, the No Hungry Kids Act. This legislation, introduced by Representatives Steve King and Tim Huelskamp, would repeal the calorie cap that was included as part of the Child Nutrition Act reauthorization passed by the previous Congress.
As a physician, I certainly understand the need to ensure our children and grandchildren are getting nutritious lunches. According to the Centers for Disease Control, childhood obesity has tripled in the last thirty years. We must teach our children the importance of healthy eating habits and develop a new culture in our youth. Children should be encouraged to lead more physically active lives, educated on the importance of eating healthy, and presented with choices and opportunities that foster health education. I will work with those who want to empower parents to help their children choose a healthy lifestyle.

Auto and Motorcycle Accident Chiropractic Patient Care
Auto and motorcycle accidents are common causes of trauma to the spine and central nervous system. If you have been in an accident— even if you are not immediately experiencing pain or other symptoms — it's important that you visit a chiropractor for a comprehensive spinal evaluation.
At Hruby Chiropractic & Wellness in Greenfield and Waukesha, WI, we have extensive experience in evaluating and caring for auto and motorcycle accident patients. Through X-rays and / or physical examination techniques, Dr. Hruby can identify spinal subluxations (misalignments) of the vertebrae in the neck and back and detect damage to supportive tissues.
Pain and other symptoms of nervous system damage may not be noticeable until weeks or months after the accident occurred. If left uncorrected subluxations can worsen, leading to pain, nervous system dysfunction, and ultimately to spinal degeneration.
Insurance Coverage. Most auto insurance policies cover chiropractic care for accident victims. This is true regardless of who is at fault, or whether you were a driver, passenger or pedestrian at the time of the accident.
Auto Accident patients' insurance benefits will be verified during their first visit to our office. During the second visit, your insurance benefits, course of care, and billing procedures will be clearly explained. Our office staff will assist you with preparing and submitting the necessary insurance forms.
If you are ever in the Greenfield or Waukesha, WI area, please feel free to stop by for a visit. We are proud to be the chiropractor of choice in our community and look forward to helping you as well.

Yeah, select/poll is not needed, but the thing is that my app, which I just changed from pthreads to linuxthreads, did all ok, launched threads and all, but it crashed when running kevent() and all the referrences it gave to kevent() were fine. > Do you have an outstanding PR on the LSI problem, and/or a stack trace for > the trap?

Jared Seff
A Timeless Sport by Jared Seff is a still life of MMA glove above image of iconic Roman boxer sculpture.
Oil on linen board, 8" x 10" without frame.Custom Spanish frame in 24 k gold leaf.
In this series through brush and paint a poetic representation of the dichotomy between a blood sport and technical art form brings an ancient theme of combat into a romantic realm while not masking the grit of the spectacle.
An added layer of tension is that all of these scenes are directly inspired by on-site drawings and studies of Jared's triplet brother and sister who are both mixed martial arts fighters themselves. This highly personal connection to the fights created an internal dilemma of processing outward heart-wrenching scenes. The ancient theme crescendos as his two beloved siblings enter into the ring, onto the stage, and now in paint onto the canvas.

Mr. Wilmot will report to Jerry Judge, CEO of Lowe Plus Draft and Lowe & Partners Worldwide, and Howard Draft, chairman of Lowe Plus Draft and chairman-CEO of Draft. The 50-year-old executive was most recently senior vice president of planning and business development at parent Interpublic Group of Cos.
Not a merger
Lowe Plus Draft was created in late March but is not considered a merger by the two agencies. The union is described as an alignment to consolidate back-office and administrative functions in some overseas markets and to drive collaborative opportunities to both agencies. A consulting unit, Plus, was formed to propel business to both agencies.
As chief operating officer, Mr. Wilmot will manage growth initiatives and identify opportunities for the agencies to operate more efficiently.
"We have been looking for the final piece in the Lowe Plus Draft management jigsaw for some time," Mr. Judge said in a statement. "We were fortunate that we were able to persuade Interpublic to release the only candidate we ever really wanted. Gunnar will bring a freshness of perspective, experience and charm."
IPG veteran
Mr. Wilmot has been running agencies for 22 years and has a long history with Interpublic agency McCann-Erickson Worldwide. He started his career in 1977 at the now-defunct SSC&B, New York, and was part of the shuffle to Lintas when Interpublic acquired SSC&B in 1979.
He moved to McCann-Erickson in 1985 and rose to executive vice president and deputy general manager of McCann, New York, in the late 1980s. He then proceeded to take on an overseas post as chairman of McCann-Germany, Frankfurt. From January 1997 until early 2000, he was McCann's worldwide account director for its General Motors Corp.'s account and executive vice president heading the agency's Troy, Mich., office.
Relationship with Dooner
In late 2001, John Dooner, then chairman-CEO of Interpublic, promoted Mr. Wilmot to his corporate post from executive vice president for worldwide accounts at McCann, London. The two executives had known each other from their time at McCann.

If Simon Cowell had to choose, he would pick Susan Boyle to sing at Prince William's royal wedding in April.
"Susan Boyle would be perfect," Cowell told Extra, adding that the YouTube singing sensation's version of "Dreamed a Dream" would be the perfect wedding song.
The former American Idol judge also added that Prince William and Prince Harry are fans of Cowell's British X-Factor.
"I'm actually friends with Prince Harry. Well, I wouldn't say friends, per se, but he's come down to the show," Cowell said. "He and I get along very well. He's a very, very nice guy. I like him a lot."
Prince William and Kate Middleton pick a wedding date
Prince William and Kate Middleton, who got engaged last month after a long courtship, are set to exchange vows at Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011.
Do you think Boyle should perform at the royal wedding?

Talk Back: Rick Ross & Universal Music Group Promote Rape Culture
"Put molly all in her champagne, she ain't even know it / I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain't even know it."
– Rick Ross of Def Jam Records, Universal Music Group
As the Steubenville case has recently reminded us, THIS is rape.
And it is in a rape culture where a top selling artist like Rick Ross, can glorify sexual violence and grace the covers of Rolling Stone Magazine at the same time.
Why do gatekeepers at UMG and Def Jam Records give these sexually violent messages a platform? Who else is responsible? When will this stop?
Universal Music Group was silent when we called out their CEO Lucien Grainge for promoting music that routinely degrades women of color.
Universal Music Group was silent when Lil Wayne's sexually violent lyric about Emmett Till was released on the internet.
Will UMG stay silent now, as their artist Rick Ross promotes rape? Will Def Jam simply apologize and allow another artist to glorify rape three months from now? Will Rolling Stone Magazine continue to refer to Rick Ross as "hip hop's most lovable don?"
Join us to demand that Def Jam and Universal Music Group publicly denounce sexual violence and make a commitment to ending the promotion of sexual violence in their music. Enough is enough. It is time to hold these labels, corporations and their artists — accountable.
And for the advertisers and media outlets, from print and digital to television and radio, that give a platform to artists who promote sexual violence, know that you are part of this problem.
Let hip hop activist Rosa Clemente's response below inspire you as she calls on men to join us and speak out against rape culture.
Join us and tweet @
DefJamRecords and @ UMG that you are #NotBuyingIt until they stop promoting rape culture.
We support the following petitions/efforts:
Tell Reebok to drop Rick Ross as Spokesperson
Rape, Rick Ross and Responsibility #RRR
Tell NYC's Hot 105.1 to stop playing the rape song and to cancel Rick Ross performance next Friday. (See image.)
Talk Back: K'NAAN & Self Censorship
"I now suspect that packaging me as an idolized star to the pop market in America cannot work; while one can dumb down his lyrics, what one cannot do without being found out is hide his historical baggage." – K'NAAN
On December 8, 2012, Somali born Canadian hip hop artist K'naan wrote an Op Ed in the New York Times about how his record label (A&M/Octone Records) has pressured him to censor his message. In his powerful and honest essay, K'Naan questions the meaning of success. FAAN Mail responds to his words in this talk back.
Music credit: "People Like Me" by K'Naan. 2010 A&M/Octone.
Check out K'Naan here.
Talk Back: On Lupe Fiasco's "Bitch Bad"
Lupe's latest video is causing a stir and lots of people are "talking back!" Check it out:
Media Literacy Questions for Bitch Bad:
What is the message of this song?
What values & points of views are represented?
Who is the target audience?
How may different audiences interpret the message differently?
What is omitted (left out) from this message?
In what context was this song created?
What messages do we hear about race and gender?
FAAN co-founder Nuala Cabral compiled a range of twitter reactions to the song/video in this storify. And then there are a series of pieces analyzing "Bitch Bad." Here are some we recommend:
Blogger daintyblackpegasus wrote a sharp gender critique of the song on Tumblr:
Overall, the issue becomes one of reinforcing patriarchy by making it a man's place to "protect" a woman by defining her. The surface message is that Lupe is trying to elevate his Black sisters by teaching them to be beyond reproach and more than a regurgitation of what they've seen. However, what it really does is place significant blame on women for ever internalizing these images while ignoring patriarchal issues like the men who support the internalization of being hypersexual by women while simultaneously shaming it. (More here)
Ebony's Jamiliah Lemieux's had this to say to music critics who dismissed the song as "half-baked conscious hip hop":
"IT'S BIT ABSURD FOR TWO MEN WHO CAN ENJOY RAP MUSIC WHILE EXISTING ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CULTURE THAT SUSTAINS IT TO DISMISS THE NEED FOR A CONVERSATION ABOUT "B*TCH." (Read more here.)
Ádìsá Ájámú offered his concerns about men instructing women on their empowerment:
"I love the message in "Bitch Bad" more than the song. And I applaud any brother … But here's my discomfort: With so much work for brothers to do on themselves within this patriarchal order I am still a bit uncomfortable with men instructing sisters on the finer points of womanhood, no matter how well intended." (Read more.)
See Lupe discuss his intentions for "Bitch Bad" here:
What do you think? Weigh in. Talk Back. Comment here or go to twitter and tell @LupeFiasco what you think using the hashtag #BitchBad.
TALK BACK: Jay Z Regrets Past Misognistic Lyrics
So several of us from the FAAN Mail Project want to start filming our informal conversations about pop-culture, media, intersections of race/class/gender/sexuality–and put them online. Through these dialogues, we are modeling media literacy and making feminist discourse accessible to a wider audience. We are talking back.
So… here's our first talk back. It happened after coming across a blog post about a recent Jay Z interview about his new book "Decoded" where he admits that he regrets his lyrics that disrespect women.
Now, goofiness aside, some interesting questions are raised.
We wondered… is this sincere or is this about publicity for his new book? does his regret matter? what does his growth mean for hip hop?

Patients can relieve toothache swelling and pain by applying a cool compress to the outside of the mouth and taking over-the-counter pain medication such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, according to WebMD. It helps to keep the mouth clean by rinsing with warm water and gently flossing around the affected area.
Applying an antiseptic with benzocaine or oil of cloves directly on the tooth and gums can also help relieve pain, according to Mayo Clinic. It is counterproductive to put aspirin directly on the tooth or gums, since it can burn gum tissue. If toothache pain persists or the pain is accompanied by jaw pain or a popping and clicking jaw, the patient should contact a dentist for professional assistance.

Shrimp Pasta with Olive Oil and Wine
Pasta, pasta, pasta. I think pasta is very versatile. You can make many different dishes with it and it never goes out of style. There is nothing better than a good plate of well-seasoned pasta. Hence well seasoned. If not, you will ruin my appetite.
But this post is not about my appetite. It is about making your life easier and tastier. Many dishes served at restaurants cannot be made to order. It takes time to prepare food and it wouldn't be realistic and smart to do otherwise. So if a restaurant does it, why can't you do it at home as well? You can have a restaurant quality meal but for ⅓ of the price.
Many restaurants use herbs to flavor their olive oils and have them available in every table. You can use anything like garlic, thyme, rosemary, oregano and many more.
The oil does the job of a preservative.
I am a firm believer there is nothing better than fresh herbs, but if you need to make dinner after you come home from work, it wouldn't hurt to have them already chopped.
You can cut them into the size of your preference. Place a damp cloth on top of the herbs and store it in a sealed container. It will stay relatively fresh for a day or two.
The same can be applied to shallots/onions. Save it in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
Pasta can be made in advance as well, but there is a trick. Dry pasta generally takes 6 to 9 minutes to cook al dente depending on the type and brand. In order to store it and then re-heat it, we have to cook it for the right amount of time. It all depends on the brand. If the box says that the pasta would be al dente with just 8 minutes, then I would cook the pasta for barely 6 minutes and shock it with plenty of cold water to completely stop the cooking process. This way, you will be able to rehydrate the pasta in boiling water and finish the dish with those 2 minutes you took from the initial cooking time of the pasta.
Once you have cooked and shocked the pasta, drain it and gently dry it with a paper towel, then store it in a sealed container with some oil. The oil will prevent it them from sticking.
Shrimp will only be fresh for a day or two. If you want to have them ready in advance, marinate it {completely covered} with oil, some chopped garlic and herbs. Not only will the shrimp gain flavor but also they will last for a bit longer in your refrigerator.
For this dish, you will need approximately 3 to 4 jumbo shrimp {21-25} per serving. Each cut into 3 equal parts.
Let's start by heating up the olive oil. Sauté the shallots for 30 seconds more or less.
Add the shrimp and extra tablespoons of olive oil to the mix and barely cook it on both sides until they turn a little pink. Season with salt.
Deglaze it with white wine and then add the herbs. Cook it for a minute or so.
Once some of the wine has evaporated, add the pasta.
Toss it around to mix the pasta with the rest of the ingredients. Add more olive oil to taste and adjust the seasoning.
And voilà! This dish could easily cost you $11 to $18 dollars depending on how big the portion is and the area where the restaurant is located.
You can make this at home with already prepped ingredients in less than 8 minutes.
Bon Appétit!
- 1 lb spaghetti, cooked according to the instructions on the box
- 1.5 lbs jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined, cut into thirds
- 3 shallots, ciseler
- 1 ½ cups white wine
- Parsley, ciseler
- Olive oil
- Salt to taste
Heat up about a tablespoon of olive oil at medium heat and sauté the shallots for 30 seconds. Add the shrimp and extra olive oil to the mix and barely cook it on both sides until they turn a little pink. Season with salt to taste. Deglaze it with white wine and then add the herbs. Cook it for one more minute or so.
Once some of the wine has evaporated, add the pasta. Toss it around to mix the pasta with the rest of the ingredients. Add more olive oil to taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve each plate with 9 pieces of shrimp. Finish with some extra chopped parsley.
- Ciseler: To chop finely.

so i worked f or five days straight, and stayed up all night long on the last night, finishing nine designs for atlanta aquarium's dolphins on parade. here are a few of them.
this is doctor dolphin, similar to my doctor turtle for the sandy springs society. all of my dolphins have real clothes on them, which means that i glue on the seams and paint on the details of the clothes. those scrubs will have puffs and folds just like real scrubs.
and this is travel dolphin, similar to travel turtle for the same folks, which sold for a whopping $19,000, none of which went to me. he's got a solar backpack, a digital camera around his neck, travel stickers everywhere, and his t-shirt shows the world as seen from atlanta. all the additions will be built up of sundry stuff, like a real hat, and then fiberglassed onto the fiberglass dolphin. that way, hoodlums can't pull things off them. got to be aware of that when designing.
this is casual-dress dolphin. i modeled him on the consultants at my ex day job. business cards, receipts, the rubber band ball. sandy haired and paunchy, with glasses, like practically all the partners. he may look friendly, but there's a shark's fin on his back. i'm going to contact my ex company and see if they're interested in sponsoring it. they could display it in the lobby.
i noticed that i didn't have any women represented. i took great pains to design a coffee-colored skin tone for all my dolphins (except the gold one) so that we could cover the potential for racial issues. but all the dolphins were men, and that's not right. so i made a district attorney dolphin, modeled on my kid's various lawyers, all of whom were female. and go getters they are, too. conservatively dressed, but with expensive accessories. and she's no shrinking violet – this dolphin has a shark's fin to show how serious she is about winning her cases.
i've got five more dolphins, all pitched toward individual sponsors, and we'll see if they like any of my ideas. as for the ones shown above, maybe a travel agency, maybe a law firm, maybe a consultant or a phone company or a hotel chain will like my designs.
i can only do two of them, however, no matter how popular the ideas turn out to be. because i'm going to be away on my residency during half of the allotted time to finish the projects, and that limits what i'm willing to take on. first come, first served.
so, wish me luck.
