GAFFNEY, S.C. --- The Limestone College men's soccer team weathered an early surge by Lees-McRae College in Conference Carolinas play on Saturday evening, scoring three goals in the first 45 minutes and held off a strong second-half rally by the Bobcats en route to a 3-0 win.
Limestone (9-2, 6-0 CC) controlled the run of play for much of the match, outshooting Lees-McRae (6-6-1, 4-3 CC) by a 16-5 margin, including a 6-3 advantage in the second half. The Saints held a 6-4 edge in attempts for the corner in a physical match that featured 21 fouls and two cautions.
Marvyn Rieger (Frankfurt, Germany) paced the Bobcats with two shots, including one on frame, as Thomas Rusling (Sheffield, England) made two saves between the pipes.
Jack Bailey, Larry Mahon, and Sam Orritt each found the back of the net for the Saints, as Jorge Mackenna added a pair of assists. Kyle Karagitz, Tom Godfrey and Jacob Boyle combined to keep a clean sheet.
The Bobcats opened the match with an early push, nearly snatching the breakthrough in the fifth minute when Rieger's headed effort was cleared off the line and Chris Mullins' (Greensboro, N.C.) follow-up took a deflection on its way toward goal.
Limestone responded with a surge of its own, taking a 1-0 lead when Mackenna set up Bailey for a strike into the upper 90 from just inside the area early in the 16th minute. Mahon then doubled the advantage to 2-0 in the 24th, converting from the spot after a hand ball in the box. Orritt would add a third in the 35th minute, making a run in from the flank off a ball from Mackenna and slotting the finish into the bottom corner.
The Bobcats came out of the interval with a concerted push, coming within inches of an answer in the 48th minute when Yago Xavier's (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) sailed just high of the bar. Rieger and Travis Stover (Titusville, Fla.) each had an attempt blocked in the 62nd off a corner from Matthew Cureton (Waxhaw, N.C.) in the midst of perhaps Lees-McRae's best stretch of the match.
Lees-McRae returns to the pitch on Tuesday when the Bobcats travel to Milligan College, Tenn. to take on Milligan College in a non-conference matchup at 6:30 p.m.

Favorites and duds from today's commenting.
Favorites, in no particular order:
This is great, from Same Sad Echo in the Olympic Hockey Hotel Room post. So silly.
Here's a humdinger of a yucky pun packaged in a dialogue delivery from Madoffs Mets in the Hilarious Sochi post. This one earned a huge round of applause. Well done.
Here's a smart line from a burner called sheltons-wine-glass in the Hilarious Sochi post. Stick around, guy.
Here's an INTERNETZ WINNER!!1! from Chamomiles Davis in the Hilarious Sochi post. This joke probably didn't need the italicized text. The joke might be just a bit sharper and quicker and funnier without it. Still, it's a terrific joke.
I chuckled at this grim Choose Your Own Adventure joke from An Intractable Butthead in the Hilarious Sochi post. Butthead used to be pkellen2313 before he changed his name to whatever insult I choose when I put one of his jokes in the Favorites.
This is so dumb from Universal Enveloping Algebra in the Hilarious Sochi post. I absolutely love this joke. Yeah, I'm making this the Comment of the Day.
Oof. This is great, from DougExeter in the Tara Lipinski post. Took me a minute, but I got there.
This is good, from marmol heater in the Mike Missanelli post. This is just an old-school Deadspin comment. Good stuff.
Total Fucking Duds
Someone actually gave this, from FriendsOfScottSisson in the Noah Meltdown post, a +1. God help us all. Make your own goddamn jokes, dummies.
Who the hell promoted this, from banavlan in the Sochi Double Toilets post? Whoever you are, I hope an anvil falls from the sky and squishes you flat.
I just hate burners so fucking much. In the Tarp-Covered Cultural Center post.
That's all I've got! Have a great night.

Valve Releases Details on First Gen Steam Machines
CES 2014 has been home to some impressive reveals thus far, but none may have been more anticipated than learning which companies would be taking the leap with Valve to develop the first wave of Steam Machines. Valve announced deals with 14 different companies to produce SteamOS-powered devices which would include a Steam Controller at the tech convention, including Alienware, Digital Storm, GigaByte and more.
The third-party Steam Machines will start as low as $499, and could reach prices as high as $6000 if you're feeling froggy. The specs vary from model to model, though most appear to be customizable to your own preference.
"The first generation Steam Machines offers something for every gamer, which is a critical part of extending Steam into the living room," said Valve's Gabe Newell in a statement. "With over 3,000 games and more than 65 million gamers on Steam, it's important to offer gamers a variety of Steam Machines that allow them to select what makes the most sense for them."
You can get a look at the first models, their prices and base specs below. The Linux PCs will be available later in 2014.

The Affordable Care Act is already working. And those who vote to repeal it will hurt the 2.5 million college age kids who are now covered through their parents' plans — the 24 million seniors who got checkups through Medicare or the 17 million kids who can no longer be denied coverage due to a pre-existing condition.
But by insisting on a vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act, even though they know it will not pass the U.S. Senate, Republicans in both houses are making it clear they are setting themselves up to take into the election a clear GOP plan to get rid of popular health benefits – and they are reminding voters that virtually the whole Republican delegation are already on record as voting for the Ryan budget, which would turn Medicare into a voucher system and would dramatically cut the benefits of middle class and low income Americans who depend on Medicaid for both long-term nursing care and for health coverage.
All the polls show strong majorities of Americans want Medicare to be strengthened, not turned into a confusing and inadequate voucher for their parents and themselves. Having set themselves up as enemies of Medicare, Republican incumbents are now announcing that, if elected, they would take us back the broken system we had before where insurance companies could deny coverage to people with pre-existing conditions and drop people when they get sick. And, in the House, Senate and Governors mansions across the country, Republicans are also going after Medicaid.
House and Senate Republicans and Mitt Romney would rather have more families go bankrupt. And House and Senate Republicans are establishing their party and their candidates as consistent enemies of popular health care benefits for Americans.
We urge Democrats to go on the offensive as champions of health care – and as strong opponents of politicians who would dismantle these popular programs

Nov. 20, 2005
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. -
The No. 14 Gauchos (13-17, 0-8) were unable to hold on to a lead they held for the majority of the first half before losing to No. 4 UC Irvine (17-10, 6-2) on "Senior Day" at Campus Pool on Sunday.
Before the match, UCSB honored its four graduating senior water polo players: drivers Ramiro Saldain and Bret DeMuth, two-meter defender Jarrod Muenter, and goalkeeper Jon Bonafede. Each player was introduced individually before being presented roses by Head Coach Wolf Wigo. Family members of the players were also invited to come down and take a picture with each player. DeMuth was joined by his parents Joanne and Larry, Bonafede by his parents Jennifer and Jack and his sister Jessie, Muenter by his parents Karen and Craig, and Saldain by his mother Liliana and sister Leticia.
The Gauchos came out strong offensively in the first quarter, posting the first two goals of the match. Freshman driver Miles Price got the ball rolling for the Gauchos, scoring the first of his two goals on the match within the first minute of play. Freshman Chris Lantz put the Gauchos up by two when he netted a goal late in the first quarter, but UC Irvine answered back quickly to cut the UCSB lead to one headed into the second quarter. The Anteaters kept the momentum from the first quarter and quickly evened the score at two apiece. With 5:40 left to play in the first half, freshman Travis Watts netted his first of two goals to put the Gauchos on top. Irvine was unfazed and managed to even the score at three at the halftime break when Taylor Wells found the back of the net with 1:23 to play in the second.
The third quarter belonged to the Anteaters offensively. UC Irvine's Nate White posted two unanswered goals in the third to take a 5-3 lead into the fourth quarter. The Gauchos cut the lead to one goal early in the fourth when freshman left-hander Dane Lindstrom netted his only goal of the afternoon. Tim Hutten answered back for Irvine by notching his second of the day on the ensuing possession. UCSB knotted the score at six with Price's second goal and sophomore Matt Tilburg's only goal of the match. Once again, UCI failed to be discouraged and quickly retained the two-goal lead with its next two possessions. Watts gave the Gauchos hope by putting a deep shot past Anteater keeper Joe Wynne to cut the lead to 8-7, but Hutten quickly erased that hope by netting his third and final score of the match and giving the Anteaters the 9-7 victory over UCSB.
Bonafede played the first half and the last 2:30 of the fourth quarter in goal for the Gauchos. The Upland, Calif. native tallied four saves between the posts for UCSB. Sophomore Rick Wright was in goal for the third quarter of play, posting one save. Goalkeeper James Street tallied one save in 4:30 of the fourth quarter. Wynne posted six saves in goal for UC Irvine.
The Gauchos would like to thank all the fans that came out to support the team this season. In addition, UCSB would like to thank DeMuth, Bonafede, Muenter, and Saldain for their contributions to the UCSB men's water polo team over the past few years.
Team 1 2 3 4 Total UC Santa Barbara 2 1 0 4 7 UC Irvine 1 2 2 4 9 Scoring UC Santa Barbara goals: Miles Price-2, Travis Watts-2, Matt Tilburg-1, Chris Lantz-1, Dane Lindstrom-1 Irvine goals: Tim Hutten-3, Nate White-3, Cole Bitter-1, Taylor Wells-1, Curt Merlo-1 Goalie Saves UC Santa Barbara: Jon Bonafede-4, Rick Wright-1, James Street-1 Irvine: Joe Wynne-6

Clarkson University Ph.D. Student Receives Travel Award to ASB Conference
Clarkson University mechanical engineering Ph.D. student Nicole C. Corbiere of Milton, Vt., received a student travel award to attend last month's 37th annual American Society of Biomechanics conference in Omaha, Neb., where she presented her research.
Corbiere gave poster presentations titled "Cancellous Bone Fracture Visualization Method" and "Towards Preventing Cancellous Bone Collapse: Cervine Model and Fracture Imaging," which described her preliminary work creating and visualizing compression fractures using engineering tools. This research could ultimately lead to clinical interventions -- such as exercise or drug treatments -- that will prevent vertebral fractures.
She is studying for a Ph.D. under advisors Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering Assistant Professor Laurel Kuxhaus and Associate Professor Kathleen A. Issen in the Orthopaedic Biomechanics Laboratory. Corbiere's goal is to identify the underlying structural mechanism that causes vertebral fractures, common in patients with osteoporosis.
She received her bachelor of science degree in 2010 and her master of science in 2012, both in mechanical engineering from Clarkson University.
Two other Clarkson students from the Orthopaedic Biomechanics Laboratory also gave poster presentations at the ASB meeting.
Alexander D.W. Throop of Potsdam, N.Y., a graduate student in mechanical engineering, presented his work "Comparing periosteal morphology between cervine and human tibiae." Throop received his bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering from Clarkson in 2012.
Alexander K. Landauer '14 of Enosburg, Vt., an undergraduate student in mechanical engineering and a member of Clarkson's Honors Program, presented his work "Repetitive freezing: does it change nanoscale material properties of cancellous bone?"
Lab Director Kuxhaus accompanied the students to the conference.

I would like to thank not only the Iowa DNR but the Estherville Daily News for their recognition of my recent award. But I believe the recognition actually should go to all the volunteers, groups and students I have worked with.
The Friends of Fort Defiance have made huge improvements at the park over the past four years. It's amazing what a few concerned citizens in the beginning have grown into, a group now totaling near 200. They have been involved with trail design, construction, and maintenance; upgrading the electrical system in the campground; bridge abutment stabilization; lodge preparation each spring; picnic table repairs and staining; grant writing; and a large list of other park maintenance items.
Professor Gary Phillips of ?Iowa Lakes Community College, his students and the Conservation Club have been heavily involved with ecosystem management for over 20 years at the park and have donated 1,000s of hours of service to Fort Defiance. They assist with prairie burns, trail design and construction, invasive species management, and timber management. Others at ILCC have helped at the park too. The Construction Services students from Emmetsburg constructed the kiosk at the west parking lot and this past weekend the ILCC Wind Energy and Turbine Technology Club assisted with cleanup along the roadways after the tree damage from our first snow.
Every year the local Boys Scouts and Girl Scouts help at the park. They always contact me to see what they can do for a service project at the park when they're on the annual campout. Inman Electric and Iowa Lakes Electric COOP were crucial in the campground electrical upgrade, donating time, equipment, and some materials to the project. The City of Estherville helped with wood chips for the new interpretive trail. And all the individuals that walk the roadways and hike the trails that pick up litter and move a branch to the side make my job just that much easier.
I believe credit shold go where it is due and I'd like to thank all of the individuals and groups named above along with those I may have missed for their dedication to keeping Fort Defiance State park a place of natural beauty.

During his tenure as chancellor of UNC-Chapel Hill, Holden Thorp got it wrong too many times, but he got it right this week when he resigned.
A talented academic does not a skilled administrator make, and Thorp obviously was not cut out for the chancellor�s job. Leadership requires straight talk, righting wrongs, and protecting the integrity of your organization. Repeatedly, Thorp failed.
Problems that continue to surface at the university have blemished the reputation of what has long been held up as one of the finest institution of higher learning in this nation � a shining star for the people of North Carolina, the pride of graduates.
First there were problems within Coach Butch Davis� football program including connections to a pro agent, player benefits, and a tutor�s extra �help� for players.
Things got worse when the story of academic fraud began unfolding, putting a black mark on the university as nothing else can.
But the real testimony to Holden�s unsuitability for the job of chancellor came when reports by the Raleigh News and Observer revealed that Holden failed to handle obvious improprieties by two UNC fundraisers.
To his credit, Holden said �no� when former Vice Chancellor Matt Kupec wanted to hire Tami Hansbrough to work in his fundraising office. Kupec, a one-time UNC football star, and Ms. Hansbrough, whose son is former UNC basketball player Tyler Hansbrough, were involved in a personal relationship. Red flag.
While Holden nixed the hire, he gave his OK to hiring Ms. Hansbrough for another fundraiser�s job that was paid for out of Kupec�s budget.
Layer on the couple�s trips to cities where Ms. Hansbrough�s other son played in basketball games for Notre Dame, loose expense documentation for travel, and their personal use of the university�s airplane fleet that is supposed to fly doctors to remote parts of the state to deliver treatment or training.
While investigations into each scandal continued, Thorp stood by the people who obviously had no regard for the damage they would cause to the university.
Coach Davis, the professor in the academic fraud case, Kupec � none was brought to UNC or placed in their positions by Thorp. And yet, the chancellor defended the university�s handling of investigations, failed to take quick action despite promises to do so, and impeded attempts for the public to know what was happening at their school.
Perhaps it was his love and devotion to UNC where he spent his undergraduate years that blinded Thorp to the problems. By all accounts, he is strongly committed to UNC�s mission and students at Chapel Hill. He is highly regarded by faculty. His scholarship and teaching expertise are heralded by those with reason to know.
Those credentials, however, do not supersede the lack of leadership and poor judgment that Thorp displayed as chancellor.
His best decision is the one he made to step aside and return to teaching, where he can impact the lives of students by sharing the level of scholarship found at the best universities.
He will hold the chancellor�s post until the next spring and during that time UNC President Tom Ross will search for a replacement. Ross has his work cut out to find someone whose skills match the requirements of the job, someone who can repair the damaged reputation of the university and secure continuing pride in �Carolina� for its graduates and Tar Heels everywhere.

As the Second Life Birthday sims were enjoying their final days, the ones for the next big event inworld were being laid down: the Relay Weekend. Besides the American Cancer Society sim, twenty-eight sims make up the course.
This number is less than in Relay Weekends in the past several years. Still enthusiasm for the event is high, and the various teams have been assigned campsites.
For Team Sunbeamers, this marks the first time the team has taken part in the Relay Weekend as a Platinum ranked team. At RFL Celebrate, their campsite sign was decorated with all five team plaques they had received over the season. As for the team build, Cynthia Farshore, Shockwave Yareach, and others are working on it.
The Relay Weekend takes place over a 24 hour period on Saturday July 15, and Sunday July 16.

Wow, how time flies. Five years ago we launched our first blog as a way to engage stakeholders and solicit input on important postal topics. We haven't stopped blogging since – 282 and counting (and more than 670,000 views!). A lot has changed in that 5 years – not necessarily for the U.S. Postal Service but in the social media realm. Things happen fast in the social media world: Facebook went public last year and now stands at a $100 billion company; Twitter has reached more than 230 million active users; the number of blogs out there has surpassed the 180 million mark; and a constant stream of newer players like Instagram and Vine further boost the impact of social media.
Our blogging experience has changed in that time as well. Over the past year, we have noticed that overall comments to the blogs have declined, but activity on our Facebook page has soared. We post each week's blog to our Facebook page and often find that's where the action is. For example, our May 6 blog, "Community Connection: Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive" yielded one lonely comment on the blog, but absolutely lit up on Facebook. As of October 18, 2013, our May 9 Stamp Out Hunger Facebook post was viewed by more than 3,000 people. Similarly, using our Twitter account to mention blogs can drive activity as people retweet and favorite what we post.
No matter where you share them, we encourage your comments. Send them via blog comments, on our Audit Project pages, on Facebook, or tweet us using @OIGUSPS. Your comments have prompted audit projects, white papers, or even the need to turn something over to our Office of Investigations. We'd also like to hear your ideas on future blog topics. What would you like us to cover? Keep in mind, a blog is a small window into an idea, not the place for exhaustive research. Often, we just tee up an issue and provide the pros and cons on it and then let the public weigh in. But we are always open to ideas.
It might seem ironic that stakeholders like to comment online about a hard-copy service that is as old as the country itself. But we think the juxtaposition is apt – the Postal Service is still a valuable infrastructure in an increasingly digital world. Social media provides stakeholders yet another outlet for "informing the debate" about what our postal system should be. We look forward to hearing from you.

West Nile Virus is back in Colorado
West Nile is back, creeping into northern Colorado so far.
Mosquito samples in Delta, Larimer and Weld counties tested positive for the virus, although no human cases have been reported yet, the state health department said this week.
As they do each summer when the mosquito-transmitted virus arrives, health officials are advising people to wear inspect repellent and get rid of standing water around their homes.
"Although we can't predict how severe the West Nile virus season will be, we do know we will see virus activity statewide," said Elisabeth Lawaczeck, state public health veterinarian.
West Nile is carried by infected birds and transmitted to humans when mosquitoes that have fed on the infected birds bite people.
Tips for avoiding mosquito bites from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment:
— Drain tires, cans, flower pots, clogged rain gutters, rain barrels, toys and puddles.
— Limit outdoor activity or wear long sleeved-shirts and pants at the peak mosquito times of dusk and dawn.
— Use repellent containing DEET.

'Arbitrage' -- 3 stars
R; 1:40 running time Gere is the centerpiece in "Arbitrage," and his preoccupied, distracted air as an actor (which can lead to pure laziness when he's not engaged by the material) works extremely well in the role of the Wall Street investor who is having a fraught 60th birthday week. His investment in a Russian copper mine has gone bust. Hundreds of millions, kaput. His cocaine-addled mistress is making demands. His auditors are getting wind of possible large-scale fraud. His own daughter, the company's chief financial officer played by Brit Marling, doesn't like what she's finding in her own internal audit. The wizard's wife (Susan Sarandon) can't seem to get a check out of him to pay for a pet charity cause. What is happening here? -- Michael PhillipsRead the full "Arbitrage" movie review

State Approving Agency (SAA) for Veterans Training
Federal regulations require the governor of each state to designate an agency of the state to perform inspections and approvals of schools and training programs so that veterans, dependents of veterans, service personnel, reservists, and other persons can apply education benefits from the various "G.I. bills." For Hawaii, that agency is the State Approving Agency (SAA) for Veterans Training.
The Hawaii SAA is administratively assigned to the State Postsecondary Education Commission (SPEC), but managed and operated by the UH System Office of Student Affairs.
The director of Hawaii SAA determines the qualifications of schools and job training establishments to offer instruction eligible for VA benefits under federal law in order to grant approval to such programs and schools. In addition, the Hawaii SAA Director performs periodic visits and inspections of approved schools and job training establishments to ensure compliance with federal law and regulations. The director may withdraw approval if programs and schools fail to maintain standards and conditions under which approval was granted.
For the period starting June 29, 2015, all requests for program approvals, facility inspections, etc. should be directed to:

À propos de Darker Still
Rock is back, and it arrives with Darker Still. Andy Frisk of Shutter 16 magazine describes Darker Still as "easily one of the best bands on Reverbnation". This gritty, knuckle grinding, powerhouse rock band shows us all why drums, bass, and a guitar is still the best way to kick ass and do it while looking good. Tony, Patrick, and Quinn somehow manage to feature all sides of rock in just a few short songs. Instantly catchy and unique, their music is wound around bass lines that would make John Entwistle tap his foot. Throw on a soaring, raspy vocalist and killer guitar riffs, each song carves its way into your mind and reminds you why rock remains supreme. Currently sitting at #8 on the Canadian Rock Charts on Reverbnation. "I Had It All" has been #1 on the Global Rock Charts on NumberOnemusic for 19 straight weeks and #1 All Genres for 16 straight weeks. "Could There Be" was the most requested song of the day and number 4 on the weekend countdown. "I Had It All" is in rotation coast to coast on American radio stations and in Australia, UK, Ireland, Spain, and Canada.
Listeners online have streamed over 170 000 song plays just this year. Word is spreading about this "modern rock band with a sound that mirrors some [of the] greats (Canada's Music, 2015)." After placing 6th in Canada in Hardrock Rising, Darker Still performed at the Hardrock Cafe in Toronto. In the International Songwriting Competition, the band's song "I Had It All " placed in the semifinals for best rock song. They were in an issue of Relix Magazine and are on the cd in the magazine with artists such as Tame Impala. Darker Still has opened for Zeus and for Jeff Martin. They have been a featured artist on TMB or The Music Box, as requested by fans. Darker Still was then included on the compilation cd that was distributed to The Music Box subscribers in December 2015.

Sentara RMH Timber Way Health Center opens
A new health center, located at 13892 Timber Way in Broadway, opened Feb. 15 to serve the Broadway and Timberville communities.
The Sentara RMH Timber Way Health Center is a 13,577-square-foot, free-standing facility. It will house the physicians and staff of the Timberville Health Care and Springbrook Family Medicine in Broadway. The center will also offer X-ray, laboratory and rehabilitation services.
"After Sentara RMH Medical Group acquired the Timberville clinic in 2012, it became clear that a larger clinic was needed in the northwest section of Rockingham County," said John McGowan, M.D., president of Sentara RMH Medical Group. "Neither of the clinics in Timberville and Broadway could meet the needs of the patients served in that area, so a new clinic was approved by Sentara Healthcare and the Sentara RMH Board of Directors."
The new facility was constructed at a cost of $4.8 million.
An open house and ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 21, 2-4 p.m. at the Center. The public is invited.

Landsborough, gateway to the Blackall Range and to the Mary Valley, is one of the historic townships of the Sunshine Coast. From 1868, it grew behind the wheels of Cobb and Co. coaches as they followed the tree line blazed by Tom Petrie to Gympie gold, discovered by James Nash in 1867. The historic town bears the name of one of Australia's most successful explorers, William Landsborough. The social history of the Caloundra region can also be traced at the Landsborough Museum and businesses like the Landsborough Hotel offer an authentic slice of the town's history.
Close to Landsborough is Ewen Maddock Dam with walking trails and picnic spots to enjoy. There is also a swimming spot for a dip in the dam. Families will especially love the award winning Pioneer Park in Landsborough built especially to cater for active kids and those with special needs.

I think it will be fine to let local factions handle their own policing. The simplest version of this: factions that are capable of shipbuilding will allocate some of their military vessels to commercial protection.
You could make it more complicated than that. Sufficiently large factions could gain "government" status, perhaps spanning several star systems, and build police ships, which are different from military ships, to enforce law and order generally rather than only as muscle for protecting commercial activity. I don't think that creates a substantively different gameplay experience, though, just in terms of how NPC piracy (and thus the value of IFF spoofing/disabling as game features) causes NPC protective behaviors to emerge.
As long as a local faction can "decide" that too much of its cargo (or ship fleet) is being lost to piracy, and choose to allocate some of its military ships to commercial defense operations, that seems like a sufficiently practical game design solution to me. IFF spoofing/disabling can happen, but it's held in check where it should be by emergent factional behavior that's plausible for LT.

Panthers Prospect Vincent Trocheck Named Ontario Hockey League's Most Outstanding Playerby Staff Writer / Florida Panthers
|Vincent Trocheck (Photo Credit: Rena Laverty, Plymouth Whalers)
SUNRISE, Fla. – Florida Panthers prospect C Vincent Trocheck has been named the 2013 recipient of the Red Tilson Trophy, awarded to the most outstanding player in the Ontario Hockey League.
The honor marks Trocheck's second major award of the season, after earning the Eddie Powers Memorial Trophy as the OHL's top scorer. Trocheck finished the 2012-13 regular season registering 109 points (50-59-109) in 63 games played for the Saginaw Spirit and Plymouth Whalers. Additionally, he ended the regular season with a 21-game point scoring streak. Trocheck led Plymouth in the playoffs with 24 points (10-14-24) in 15 games, before their elimination in the Western Conference Finals.
"We are extremely proud that Vincent has been selected as the OHL's Most Outstanding Player of the Year," said Florida Panthers Executive VP/GM Dale Tallon. "Vincent had an exceptional season this year capturing the OHL scoring title, while leading Plymouth in scoring during the playoffs. He is one of our prospects who has matured and developed through hard work and dedication since being drafted. We are excited about his continued growth and development within our organization."
Trocheck is the second consecutive player with a Panthers tie to win the Red Tilson Trophy. G Michael Houser (free agent signed by Florida on July 10, 2012) was awarded the trophy last season while playing with the London Knights.
The Pittsburgh, PA native won a Gold medal at the 2013 World Junior Championship, scoring three goals with two assists in the tournament.
Trocheck was selected by Florida in the third round (64th overall) in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft. He signed an entry-level contract with the Panthers on Apr. 23, 2012.

Typically a new dancer will start as a social dancer, attracted by enjoying dance at a social event, witnessing a TV show, yearning for more "social" in their social life – or being talked into it by a spouse, friend or relative. A small percentage of social dancers later find that their love of dance compels them to become competitive dancers or DanceSport Athletes.
The vast majority of new dancers will remain social dancers all of their life and will reap many benefits from this activity. A competent social dancer is always welcomed and in great demand at social events.
Besides the valuable social benefits of dancing, your participation in a regular program of ballroom dancing will produce significant mental and physical health benefits. Dancing is a great stress reliever. It stimulates the brain. It builds confidence, alertness and a good attitude. It also has been proven to be a great physical benefit as it physically tones the whole body in enjoyable exercise. In summary, dancing will add a new and very beneficial dimension to your life.
Getting Started
So, how do you get started as a social dancer? The first step, determine if there's a USA DANCE INC Chapter in your area. If so, you can attend a chapter social dance, introduce yourself to one of the chapter officers and ask for help in getting started as a ballroom dancer. They will be happy to help you get started on the right foot and become familiar with options in your area for instruction and social dance opportunities.
Chapters have frequent social dances and most of them start with a one-hour dance lesson. Many chapters offer affordable weekly group dance lessons, especially for beginners. Those classes will be an excellent place to commence your dance training. You will learn rapidly and will have the time of your life while learning.
The Newsletters issued by chapters include useful information regarding local studios and independent dance instructors that offer group ballroom dance classes and private instruction for beginners.
If there is no USA DANCE INC Chapter in your community, do not despair! Many colleges provide ballroom dance classes as part of their continuing education programs. Also, the programs of many city or county recreational departments include ballroom dance classes. Some organizations such as the YWCA, Community Centers, Elks or Moose Lodges offer dance lessons to their members and guests.
Your best approach will be to seek out opportunities to take group lessons in the particular dance in which you are interested. The Calendar of Events and Entertainment sections of your local newspaper may provide information on scheduled dance classes and other dance events.
If your budgets permits, and you are so inclined, a local commercial dance studio will be happy to arrange a full program of private lessons, group lessons, weekly dance parties, trips to special dance events, etc. The local USA DANCE chapter and your new dancing friends are a good resource for obtaining information on pricing and quality of instruction, as these often vary from one place to another.
Selection of Your Instructor
Your most important decision after you decide to become a social dancer is the selection of your instructor. The instructors now working with your local USA DANCE chapter are a good source of qualified instruction.
Chapter Newsletters usually include a list of the local dance studios and independent instructors.
Ask each prospective instructor for a resume, including professional tests and examination credentials certifying the level of teaching qualification attained by that instructor. Such credentials, when accompanied by actual experience in teaching beginner dancers, such as yourself, offer a good measure of assurance that you will not waste your time and money learning things that at a later stage you will need to relearn.
Dance Styles
It is often a good idea to start with group lessons in the American style Bronze syllabus. This will give you a basic foundation for social dancing that will be useful all of your life. The odds are that after you become involved in group classes and witness dancing events, you will soon "pick" a favorite dance or dances in which to seek special training.
Partner Versus No Partner
Ballroom dance includes any dance performed with a partner. However, it is not necessary to have a regular partner when you first start dancing. Most group classes accept singles and you should not hesitate to commence without a partner.
However, if you already have a partner, it will be best that you learn together. You will quickly find that learning to dance together adds an entirely new and beneficial dimension to your relationship.
Private Lessons Versus Group Classes
Which are best? It depends on you and your budget. Private lessons are more expensive but they also provide individualized attention that can greatly speed up the learning process. On the other hand, group lessons are inexpensive and are a good way to try out a variety of dances and meet new friends.
Most beginner dancers find the environment of learning together as a group stimulating, challenging and lots of fun. Also, group classes provide social interplay and the opportunity to both meet and dance with other beginners. We recommend that you start your adventure into the new and joyful world of social dance by attending group classes with other beginners.
Some beginner dancers may feel the need for more privacy as they strive to untangle two left feet. In such cases, a few private lessons may give them the confidence to then join a group class.
If you are taking group lessons and find you are unable to keep up with the group, miss some lessons or are having difficulty with a particular figure, it may be advisable to purchase a few private lessons and use them to catch up with your classmates. Group lessons tend to focus on steps and patterns rather than on technique, so a private lesson every few weeks to refine technique can be quite beneficial and enhance your progress.
Some studios and some independent dance instructors ask students to sign a contract for a specified number of lessons with a price that may include private lessons, group lessons, dance parties, workshops, dance weekends, cruises, etc. Just remember, none of it is free and you may not need or be able to take advantage of, or be able to afford all that is in such packages.
Back in November 1992, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) issued a warning about the sales practices of some dance studios and suggested that potential problems can be avoided by comparison shopping for dance lessons. We encourage you to do that. To read those FTC suggestions, click: FTC-Dance Studios.
It is important that you not let this warning about contracts deter you from becoming a ballroom dancer. The best approach is to learn the basics of dancing without becoming involved in formal contracts, at least until you are familiar with what is offered in your community, what your needs are and what your budget allows. There are many excellent independent instructors and studios that offer dance instructions on a pay-as-you-go basis with no formal contracts. Seek them out and use their services whenever possible. USA DANCE chapters are normally familiar with the wide range of instructors in their service area and can help you do that.
Key Elements
Becoming a good dancer always includes three key elements; expert instruction, practice and frequent use of what you are learning. If your training program does not include an appropriate amount of all three you will be wasting much of your time and money.
Take a few minutes each day to practice what you have been working on in class. Spend 15 minutes each day to focus your mind and body on executing the figures to reinforce the learning process and give you the confidence to then apply those skills in a social dance setting.
Last, its vital that you attend a social dance at least once each week and put into use the things you have learned. Remember! "You use it or lose it!"
The Payoff
It will not happen overnight but as you learn and put into practice the things you learn in class your confidence in your dance abilities will increase and you will begin to capture the joy of dance. Soon other dancers will be seeking you out and asking you to dance with them. You will have arrived!
A Special Request
Please copy this article and give it to all who are interested in learning to ballroom dance. Urge them to give it a whirl! Tell them that dancing will add zest and joy to their lives.

First of all, I need to make sure my two-year old son Otto never sees this amazing electric car an engineer dad built for his son. While I'm sure Otto's childhood will involve some sort of home-built go-karts and things like that, whatever I make is going to look like it was carved from a lumpy hippo turd next to this sleek beauty. And mine will come with lots of warnings about not to touch things that will make the whole thing explode.
The builder of this sub-scale, carbon-fiber beauty is a Chinese automotive engineer who goes by the handle Lingziluo, and, according to his answers on a reddit thread, the little car cost over $15,000 in parts, and if you were to factor in the labor cost, would easily cost more than a new BMW 3 Series. That kid better not complain about getting underpants for his birthday.
The little car itself is extremely technically impressive. It's built on a custom aluminum (?) chassis that resembles a VW air-cooled pan, but with much better suspension. Double wishbone suspension, in fact, along with rack-and-pinion steering, four-wheel disc brakes, and an electric motor/transaxle unit mounted just ahead of the rear axle. Custom alloy rims mount the rubber at the corners, and the whole thing has a build quality that both looks on par with custom full-sized race cars and is so far beyond what any of the real cars I own has it hurts a little.
The all carbon-fiber body has a drag coefficient (0.24) as low as a Tesla Model S. The styling seems to be inspired by the look of '50s-era American cars with a lowrider/lead-sled treatment, and the total package is capable of going, get this, up to 86 MPH. Since even Chinese child-endangerment laws would likely look down at a toddler hauling that degree of ass, Lingziluo says he's governed the top speed to about 3 MPH.
There's a full LED lighting system, an audio system, and seat belts in the car, because of course there is. Originally, the car seems to have been painted black, but now sports a fetching GT-40 style Gulf livery.
Lingziluo used Solidworks and AutoCad for the design work, and his job afforded him access to all the complex machine tools needed to machine the aluminum and make the complex carbon fiber molds. Even with all these impressive tool resources at his disposal, Lingziluo waxes philosophical about what's important in a project like this:
"Tool is just tool, mind makes the difference."
Very true, Lingziluo. But tool is a pretty big deal as well.
This is a staggeringly-well engineered project by absolutely any standard. Scaled up, it would make an amazing real electric sportscar, and at its current scale it's a humbling testament to what a dad's love for his son can produce.
If this is what Chinese auto engineers are like, then it seems that the way to solve the seemingly constant quality issues with most Chinese mass-produced cars would be to tell all the engineers that the cars are for their kids. They'd be unbeatable.

BUENOS AIRES, (Reuters) – A decade of lobbying and dreams ended in heartache for the world of squash yesterday when the International Olympic Committee rejected their bid for inclusion in the 2020 Games.
Squash had been pitted against wrestling and a joint baseball and softball bid, at a vote in the Argentine capital.
It had always appeared a mammoth task to oust the 3,000-year-old wrestling, a sport which had only found itself in this precarious position due to senior Olympic members linked with other sports protecting their Games status.
Members have said it had never been the intention to eliminate wrestling from the programme, with other sports seen more at risk including Modern Pentathlon and Taekwondo.
In the vote, out of 95, wrestling polled an outright majority straight off with 49 votes, with baseball and softball polling 24 and squash earning 22 votes.
World Squash Federation President N Ramachandran vowed to be back. "Today's decision is heartbreaking for the millions of squash players around the world," he said.
"Particularly given the 10-year journey we have been on to join the Olympic Games sports programme.
"As the only new Olympic sport on today's shortlist, we believed squash offered something for the future and I still hope that our inclusion may still be possible.
"We have much to offer the Olympic Movement and I am hopeful that today is not the end of our Olympic journey."
Top-ranked woman Nicol David, prominent throughout the sport's bid, said she was disappointed, but proud of the effect the campaign has had.
"What we've done over the last few years, with the campaign, has really made women's squash stronger and it's brought the whole squash community together in a huge way," the Malaysian said.
"We've proven that we can be up there as an Olympic sport and the fact that we were shortlisted shows what a great sport we are. We need to use that and move forward."
Wrestling is now assured a spot at both the 2020 and 2024 Games, while both squash and baseball/softball are free to bid again for 2024.
Under current rules the number of sports at a Games is capped at 28.

Will He Ever Talk to Me Again? Reconnecting with Your Ex Boyfriend
"Will he ever talk to me again?" That's something many women ask after they go through a difficult break up. Intellectually they know that there's a very good chance that they'll speak to their ex boyfriend again but emotionally they feel lost and very alone. It's incredibly challenging, from an emotional standpoint, to go from enjoying the company of the man you love to not being able to speak or interact with him at all. You may feel that your life has lost a good part of its meaning and you're going to wander around wondering what, if anything, you can do to remedy the situation so you two can get back on the path towards happiness that you were on. Every situation is unique and each woman in your position has her own set of issues to deal with, but generally speaking you can certainly reopen the lines of communication with your ex again which should be viewed as a foot in the door towards reconciliation.
Before you do anything I want you to take a moment to think back to how things were right before the break up. Time has a way of softening the emotions that we experience when we're first dumped or when we break off the relationship. Back then you likely felt very angry and upset. If your boyfriend told you he didn't love you anymore you may have even thought about revenge. You were driven by very difficult emotions. Now, since a bit of time has passed since you two were together, you probably are thinking about the good times and all the wonderful moments you two shared. That's a natural progression of feelings and it's important to recognize it as such. Just because you're intent on getting him back, the problems you were experiencing before you split won't magically disappear.
That's why it's often a good idea to think about how you can apologize for whatever you might have done that played a role in things going sour between you and the man you adore. I know, from personal experience, that it's easy to point the finger of blame at him if he dumped you, but he wouldn't have done so if things were going well. Perhaps, like me, you let your insecurities shine through and he grew tired of your jealousy nature. Maybe it had more to do with the pressure you were putting on him to take the relationship to the next level. Consider now what you might have done differently because that's something you'll have to be mindful of if, and when, you two do find your way back together.
Using No Contact After the Break Up
I know that you've heard a lot about the concept of no contact. If you haven't, I'll give you a quick primer. Essentially it's all about giving you and your ex boyfriend both some breathing room after the break up. You make a promise to yourself that you won't contact him for at least a few weeks. I always advise women to make it at least three weeks. Your goal with this is to get stronger emotionally before you talk with him. I know, from when I went through a break up, that it's hard to keep your composure at times right after the split. By taking a break, as in no contact, you'll be able to distance yourself emotionally a little from the actual break up, which is incredibly helpful.
If you do this and your ex boyfriend contacts you during the no contact period, that's great. Don't ignore him, whatever you do. Be polite and friendly, but don't delve into the why's of the break up or the how's of getting back together. You don't want to do that too soon.
Once you do feel it's time to open the old relationship wound begin by saying you're sorry for what happened. If he's receptive, that's an incredibly good sign. Don't push him to talk about things if he's not ready yet. That could be disastrous.
I want to point out how you need to be patient as you start talking to him again. Don't contact him every day and don't send him a flurry of text messages. Let him help you set the pace by watching how he responds and taking note of how often he's initiating contact. If you take it at a calm and easy pace, you'll soon find that you two are talking more than ever and things are getting back to where you want them to be.
Text messages are actually becoming an important part of the communication dynamic between exes. You can use text messages in a very significant way during a break up to grab your ex boyfriend's attention again.

Michele Bachmann's speech at CPAC 2012 wasn't quite the start turn that her appearance in 2011 — when Americas Bachmannia infection started spreading. I guess that's the difference between being a newly-announced presidential candidate and being a newly-dropped-out presidential candidate. (She was asked to leave. Twice. So, did she drop out or was she dismissed? A little from Column A, and a little from Column B?)
Bachman scored some laughs about the three things she learned as a presidential candidate
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), free from the constraints of running for president, opened her speech at the 2012 Conservative Political Action Conference with a joke.
"Running for President of the United States is really one series of humiliations after another, but it's also a very educational experience," she said.
"I know where John Wayne was born."
"I know the day Elvis Presley was born."
"Thirdly, I learned never forget the three things that you learn," she said.
Then she launched into a foreign policy speech that revealed how much she has yet to learn.
Of course, what Michelle Bachmann doesn't know could fill several libraries.
So, I'm going to keep this short. Bachmann spent most of her speech attempting to turn President Obama's foreign policy successes into failures. (Though she seemed to be settling for predicting that they will turn into failures at some later date.) Then she did something interesting.
She may have mentioned that the U.S. took down Osama bin Laden on Barack Obama's watch. If she did, I missed it. Maybe I blinked. It's no secret that President Obama giving the nod to the mission that bagged bin Laden sticks in many a conservative craw. Not only did it deprives them of a convenient bogey man to drag out when needed to frighten Americans into pouring more money into Iraq and Afghanistan, but it gave rise an annoying question: Why didn't we do it that way in the first place?
It's a fair question, but Bachmann breezed right by it and instead dwelled upon the conservative notion that Bill Clinton had a chance to get bin Laden and took a pass. It's understandable. Even FactCheck.Org initially thought Clinton had passed up a chance to kill Osama bin Laden, but upon further investigation changed it's answer to "probably not."
I can understand Bachmann's problem. She can't praise one Democratic president (Obama) for killing bin Laden, so she wrongly accuses another Democratic president (Clinton) of "letting him go." In her
pumps shoes, I'd be tempted to do the same.
But I'm not. So, I can go ahead and point out that there's a eight-year gap in Bachmann's timeline. That would be George "Dubya" Bush's watch, during which the Bush administration had a chance to get bin Laden in Afghanistan, but let him slip away.
Bin Laden had written his will, apparently sensing he was trapped, but the lack of sufficient forces to close in for the kill allowed him to escape to tribal areas in Pakistan, according to the report.
It said former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and top U.S. commander Gen. Tommy Franks held back the necessary forces for a "classic sweep-and-block maneuver" that could have prevented bin Laden's escape.
"It would have been a dangerous fight across treacherous terrain, and the injection of more U.S. troops and the resulting casualties would have contradicted the risk-averse, 'light footprint' model formulated by Rumsfeld and Franks," the report said.
When criticized later for not zeroing in on bin Laden, administration officials, including former Vice President Dick Cheney, responded that the al Qaeda leader's location was uncertain.
"But the review of existing literature, unclassified government records and interviews with central participants underlying this report removes any lingering doubts and makes it clear that Osama bin Laden was within our grasp at Tora Bora," the report said.
Bachmann, at least, admitted the world was a better place without Osama bin Laden in it, even if she didn't give any credit to the president who ordered the mission that killed bin Laden. That's because conservatives don't so much lament that bin Laden was killed. It's just that when he went, with him went most American's reasons for supporting the wars conservatives used his terrorism to justify in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The end of the war in Iraq, and the approaching end of the war in Afghanistan, is something that I have heard conservatives like Bachmann and Sen. Mark Rubio lamenting at CPAC today, if not the thousands of lives and billions of dollars both have cost.

The Life Span of Animals
One of the more frequently asked questions is how long are animals of a given species expected to live.
This chart provides the expected maximum life span for a variety of animals in years. Many of the values are based on record life spans taken from various sources.
Remember these are the life expectancies under optimal conditions. The actual life span may be shortened considerably if environmental conditions or diet are poor.

Author Notes: This is not one of the foods of my childhood (I don't want to reimagine my childhood). This sandwich pre-dates LA's invention of the food truck. Porchetta originated in Umbria where typically you will see a whole suckling pig (or part of one) spitted in back. The meat is sliced right off of the pig and handed to you on a crusty roll. I first tasted this in chilly, morning market squares and also outside of football stadiums in third division towns prior to going to sit or stand on a cold, concrete bench and watch two anemic teams kick a ball past their own players for 90 minutes with stoppage time added. I can't tell you how much I love Rome or how much I miss it every day, but the origin is Umbria and not Lazio although on the outskirts of Rome you can find really great porchetta. Like Alberto Sordi I will be interred with an AS Roma scarf.
It literally took me years of work to get it right, but I finally figured out a good way to duplicate it at home without the entire Piggly Wiggly (who you might see smiling at you from the window of a butcher shop in Rome or Gubbio). One of the things I like about this preparation is that you get a toothsome bit of crispy skin with almost every slice. I've seen other recipes using pork loin and found them to be totally unsatisfactory. But a picnic shoulder works just mighty fine because you really need that crispy skin and unctuous pig fat.
Typically this is served without condiments (depending on where you happen to be). But I like to offer it to my guests with some salsa verde on the side. This is my "go to" dish when I have to cook for ten or twenty guests. - pierino
Food52 Review: When you want to make a spot-on porchetta sandwich look no further: Pierino has a winning rendition. The rosemary, fennel, garlic, and shallot rub make a perfect seasoning for the porky goodness of the picnic shoulder. I got my roast nicely oiled, rubbed, and tied, then popped it into the oven. It didn't take long for my kitchen to be filled with the delectable aroma of the herbs and meat. It took about an hour and a quarter for my roast to be perfectly cooked, the skin brown and crispy, and the meat juicy and unctuous. I allowed it to rest while I made the salsa verde, which was a perfect bright and zesty foil to the rich and fatty pork. Not being a fish lover I was reluctant to incorporate the anchovies, but Pierino convinced me to do so, and I'm glad I did. They did not add fishiness; they just made the salsa verde more tasty. The only change I will make next time I make this (and there most definitely will be a next time) is to trim some of the fat from the pork as it was a bit excessive for my taste. - hardlikearmour —hardlikearmour
Serves: 6 to 8
Porchetta (the pig)
Fresh pork picnic shoulder, bone in, about 5 pounds (you will bone it out or your butcher will do it for you). If you are reasonably deft with a boning knife it's not difficult.
fistful of sea salt
1 TBS white pepper
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
2 shallots minced
2 TBS fennel pollen, or alternatively fennel seed finely ground in a spice grinder.
Several branches of fresh rosemary (tear the leaves off, and if possible pick the flowers if any). Finely chop the leaves and reserve the flowers whole.
1 cup good olive oil and a little more for rubbing.
1 ½ cups white wine for basting.
Many crusty rolls
Salsa Verde (Italian style)
2 bunch flat leaf parsley, washed and chopped including the stems, equivalent to 1 cup
5 flat anchovy filets (they have to be of good quality or you spoil the sauce)
1 tablespoon, salt packed capers, rinsed
1 tablespoon Spanish sherry vinegar
1 /2 cup olive oil
- Once you have boned out the ham* spread it open and slash the skin in a diamond shape pattern. Turn it over and slash some pockets into the meat, being careful not to cut all the way through to the skin and fat layer. Mix the herbs with all but about 1 tbs of olive oil. Rub about ¾ of the herb and olive oil mixture into the flesh. If you have the edible flowers add them now before the tie up part. Meanwhile preheat oven to 450F.
- Reform the ham and then tie it up like a salami or a fetish model, using one long piece of cooking twine. You know how to do that, right? Be sure to keep your seams aligned.
- Rub the tied up ham with olive oil and more coarse salt and then more of the herb/oil mix.
- Place in a roasting pan and after 20 minutes in the hot oven baste with white wine and turn heat down to about 350F. Baste every 20 minutes with more wine and pan juices until the internal temp reaches 145F. Allow to rest, covered for at least 10 minutes before slicing very thinly. Sandwich this up with crusty bread rolls---no other condiments are required, but I like to serve salsa verde---the Italian version.
- In a blender or food processor mix your salsa verde. Everything goes in at once, smoothiness to your own liking.
- *Note to cook: *If you have the butcher bone out your ham please do ask to keep the ham bone. Use it for a stock for beans or soup or whatever.
