PHILIPPINES - Akbayan Celebrates Compensation Act to victims of Martial Law
Ensuring Fair legislation for all victims
Akbayan Party-list lauded the conclusion of the bicameral conference committee (bicam) on the Compensation Bill for victims of human rights violations during the dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos, calling it a "victory of the Filipino people and of Philippine democracy" after a decades-long struggle of advocates and victims of Martial Law abuses for justice.
"Finally, over two decades after the fall of the dictatorship, we will have a law that puts the responsibility for human rights abuses square on the shoulder of Marcos and provides justice for all those who suffered under his reign," Akbayan Representative Walden Bello said today.
Bello also explained that Akbayan has relentlessly fought for this piece of legislation because it is very important in countering the efforts of the Marcos camp to white-wash the dictatorship and ensure that the abuses that took place "lives in the collective memory of the nation."
Ensuring Fair legislation for all victims
Bello, who was a member of the Lower House contingent to the bicameral committee, said that he was proud to have been part of the team of legislators that secured a fair and effective scheme for the distribution of the P10-B compensation fund to all victims of abuse, following the controversial discussion over two particular provisions of the bill.
"In the bicam, we defended the fair distribution of the P10B compensation fund to all victims of abuse, and we were successful in eliminating the 80%-20% division of the fund to ensure that all victims, or their families, will be able to get their rightful share of the compensation fund," Bello said.
The funds division pertained to a provision in the proposed measure that will reserve 80% of the P10B fund to victims of Martial Law that were declared victims of human rights abuses during the Martial Law after they filed a case against the late dictator in a court in Honolulu, Hawaii.
According to Bello, the problem with such a provision is the injustice it creates by leaving a "left-over fund" of only 20% of the P10B for thousands of other victims who were not included in the case.
Bello also explained the application of the "conclusive presumption" presumption clause to certain victims of human rights violations, including the Hawaii claimants and Martial Law victims recognized by the Bantayog ng mga Bayani Foundation.
"Conclusive presumption for these victims mean that they are recognized by the Human Rights Victims Compensation Board as victims of human rights violations. To ensure the correct and fair distribution of compensation, the bill gives the Board the inherent power and jurisdiction to first, review the list of victims and ensure that minor errors, such as double entries, are corrected; and second, determine the appropriate amount of compensation for each. In such cases, victims will not be required to produce documents that will prove their being a victim," Bello explained.
Protecting the national memory of Martial Law Atrocities
Bello also explained the holistic approach of the legislation to protect Philippine democracy, citing a provision of the bill that ensures that education about the atrocities will be taught to the youth.
"The nation is practically on the verge of forgetting the atrocities committed during the Martial Law period, and this is not by accident but because of the deliberate revisionist efforts of the Marcos camp to white-wash the memory of that period. Justice also lies in ensuring that Filipinos of all generations will not forget the dark, violent past, and the bill ensures that," Bello explained.
Bello also added that Akbayan has long advocated the inclusion of Martial Law atrocities in the education curriculum that is being fulfilled by the legislation.
"With the final passage of the Compensation bill into Law, by ensuring that all victims of abuse finally receive what is due them, and by strengthening the collective memory of a nation against the atrocities of the past, we achieve justice for all," Bello concluded.
Akbayan seeks legislation that ensures justice for all victims of human rights violations
Akbayan Rep. Walden Bello objects to Bayan Muna's disservice to Martial Law victims
"What we want is an effective law that is fair to all victims of human rights violations. We do not want a law that will defeat its own purpose and deprive the Martial Law victims of justice."
That was the statement Akbayan issued when the group expressed its commitment to ensure that the bill compensating victims of human rights abuses during the dictatorship will be fair, constitutional and free from infirmities, contrary to the accusations Bayan Muna hurled against the group as disrupting the process at the bicameral conference committee of the said legislation.
According to Akbayan Representative Walden Bello, the issue is not about whether or not certain human rights victims are "genuine" human rights victims, the way Bayan Muna portrays it to be, but rather an issue of ensuring that the law will succeed in providing justice for all victims of Martial Law.
Creation of Left-over fund violation of Constitution
According to Bello, there is a fundamental problem with the position that Bayan Muna insists the House contingent to the bicameral conference committee to maintain - that members of the group Claimants 1081 be given special treatment by reserving 80% of the P10B compensation fund for them, which effectively creates a "left-over fund" for all the other victims of Martial Law.
"While we are in full support of the victory that Claimants 1081 received in the US, we do not want a law that accords them privileges not available to the rest of the victims of Martial Law. It is unjust for all the other victims of Martial Law to have to fight over scraps of compensation from a left-over fund," Bello said.
"Not only is it unfair, it is also a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of our constitution," Bello added, referring to Article III, Section 1, of the 1987 Constitution which states that "No person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, nor shall any person be denied the equal protection of the laws."
Bello explained that the spirit of the Compensation Act is to ensure that people who are victims of the human rights abuses be given due compensation for the Martial Law atrocities they had to endure. To ensure fairness and justice, the legislation will accord compensation that is relative to the abuse people experienced.
Bayan Muna's Disservice to Martial Law Victims
Bello continued to point out that that Bayan Muna is going against the intent of the law by creating two classes of human rights victims – the so-called genuine human rights victims who were litigants to the case in Hawaii against the Marcoses, collectively known as claimants 1081, and all the rest of Marcos' victims, and then according special privileges to the former.
"In fact, the Legislative Counselling Service of the Lower House Reference and Research Bureau raised a concern regarding the 80-20 clause when the Committee on Human Rights asked for legal opinion on the matter. It is certainly unfair for someone not party to the Honolulu case but who may have suffered greater abuse to receive much less than one who is party to the Honolulu case simply because she only has 20% of the fund to get compensation from," Bello said.
"The inherent infirmities that Bayan Muna insists must be included in the Compensation Act only serve the interests of the Marcoses and other parties whose intention is to deprive human rights victims what has long been due them," Bello added.
For Akbayan, the key to ensuring justice for all victims of Martial Law is for each one to be treated fairly, and for the law to be free of infirmities, and it is precisely this objective that they seek to achieve in the bicameral conference committee.
"Bayan Muna's insistence on a defective law is a disservice to the victims of Martial Law Atrocties and the human rights community. However, I am confident that the lies Bayan Muna is perpetuating will not prohibit the Senate and Lower House members of the bicameral conference committee from doing the right thing for the victims of Marcos' human rights abuses and for Philippine democracy," Bello concluded.

In November, the Denver Art Museum will feature some 270 Cartier pieces culled from its extensive 1,450 piece collection of historical works, ranging from jewelry, watches, clocks, and other assorted objects. The exhibit will be called "Brilliant: Cartier in the 20 Century," and feature pieces from 1900 to 1975.
The Denver exhibition is the 26 of its kind since 1983, when Cartier began acquiring its historically significant pieces from the marketplace. The Denver show follows a more expansive "Style and History" exhibit that was recently held at the Grand Palais museum in Paris.
The Paris exhibit had more than 200,000 visitors and featured some 670 historic works, with 500 pieces from Cartier's own collection and the rest from institutions and private collectors. The pieces were displayed along with 200 design drawings, plaster casts, advertising photographs, dresses, and coats to give onlookers context for the works – and transporting them back in time to their initial inspiration.
For some insights as to what Cartier is bringing to Denver, we called up Paul Boutros, a watch collector who sat on Penta's recent panel "The Call of Collecting." Boutros saw the Grand Palais exhibit before it closed.
The Paris exhibit included pieces that adorned Russian Czars, British royalty, Hollywood stars, and Indian maharajahs. Boutros in particular was struck by how Cartier managed to make, say, a 1928 piece out of 2,930 diamonds, for the Maharaja of Patiala in India, without the work somehow appearing gaudy. That is an astute observation as to what is the defining essence that underlies all Cartier-designed jewelry. Bright, stunning, extravagant – but never in bad taste. Perhaps, for this reason, King Edward VII declared in 1902, "Cartier is the king of jewelers and the jeweler of kings."
One prominent display in Paris naturally revolved around King Edward VIII's wife, Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of Windsor, who played an important role in developing Cartier's colorful design style. Her special orders pushed the brand's use of jewel combinations – like pairing amethyst, turquoise and coral – while also solidifying the iconic panther as Cartier's emblem. The panther first appeared in one of the Duchess' special orders from 1948: a three dimensional panther crouches atop a deep blue and spherical emerald, as if audaciously mounted on the world itself.
Boutros was struck by Cartier's aesthetics, crafted out of a passion for symmetry and innovation. "They created the first men's wristwatch, the Santos, a design which has withstood the test of time," he says. In the 1900s, men traditionally wore pocket watches to check the time. But Louis Cartier's friend, the Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos Dumont, complained he could not check the time while flying. So, in 1904, Cartier created the Santos wristwatch. The iconic brand still produces the Santos today, with its popular pronounced numeral hour markings and square shape.
Also striking Boutros's fancy were Cartier's 16 mystery clocks on display. In 1912, Cartier designed it's first "mystery clock." With the help of illusionist and father of modern magic, Jean Eugène Robert-Houdin, the clock's hands float between transparent rock crystal with the guts and gears seemingly invisible. "This would absolutely be a crown jewel in my home," Boutros said. Each is different, but Boutros loved a diamond embellished clock with its "incredibly detailed" dragon-shaped hands. For more on Cartier's recent interpretations of the "mystery" watch, check out Penta's "Overcoming That Cartier Angst," which also chronicles how the brand, with such a feminine mystique, produces handsome men's watches.
Boutros also loved the "flamboyant and unapologetic-style" of the animal-inspired creations made for Maria Félix. The story: The firebrand Mexican actress first entered a Cartier boutique in 1925 with at least one baby crocodile in tow. Cartier made a brooch of two crocodiles, one set with 1,023 fancy yellow diamonds and the other of 1,060 emeralds, and still sells this Felix homage today. Boutros's favorite Cartier piece was a 1968 Serpent necklace, with 2,473 diamonds at 178.21 carats and set in platinum and white gold. Its joints allow for full mobility, meaning it rests ever so gently on the neck, and the snake's underbelly is enameled in a colorful, red, green and black, grid pattern.
The Cartier exhibition at the Denver Art Museum later this year will show many of the same pieces, including Maria Félix's crocodile brooch. Tickets go on sale in the summer.

==== Install CMake modules local ====
When I first wrote this article, it was lean and mean and simple to understand. And it was good for all distributions. Now I have the impression of a fat pig when I read this article. I pledge for removing the usual sources of error, e.g. the many subdirectories. Why do we need a directory KDE, for example ? If a tutorial is not simple, it is not done.
--Tstaerk 14:23, 9 September 2007 (CEST)
For example it *is* nessecary to install qt-copy, even if you keep it in the source directory (which leads to 394583069845 error messages on the console during the install). And kdelibs won't build unless something unknown is done with strigi - if it is installed into KDEDIR, it isn't just found.
the heading says pre-requirments are to read "Anonymous SVN Quickstart Guide" first. but the things it does are mostly done in this guide(but a little differently). for example the "Anonymous SVN Quickstart Guide" has you just svn a bunch of stuff.... but that all ended up in the wrong place cause in this guide the svn'd stuff needed to go to "kde-devl"-user's dir not the normal user dir..
when I wrote this article, it was lean and simple. It has been improved somewhere, but on most places worsened. An example is the directory structure (to get to qt-copy: cd && cd qt-copy; to get to kdelibs: cs && cd kdelibs; to get to kdepim: cs && cd KDE && cd kdepim - no one understands this!!!). Another example is cs and cb which is quite unnecessary as my initial article shows. But of course, with the complexity as the article has NOW, it IS necessary.
Why do you spoil a simple article so that even I no longer find my own subdirs ? --Tstaerk 10:25, 28 May 2007 (CEST)
svn co .../kdelibs mkdir build-kdelibs cd build-kdelibs cmake <options> ../kdelibs make install
A: This is not a typo. Read the article about setting up your .bashrc. Both cs and cb are bash functions, used to change to the KDE source directory and KDE build directory respectively.
A: Actually yes, for Mac OS X. There also is kdelibs.com (see also here) which will be merged into this wiki in the future.
A: No. The shell function cmakekde handles this, have a look at the file .bashrc.
A: Right --Dhaumann
When installing KDE4, I strongly recommend installing all tools (like dbus and cmake) and kde packages into the same place, e.g. ~/install. Qt is the only exception.
The reason for this is because if you install some packages to ~/kde and some to /usr/local and maybe one in /usr then cmake will generate errors like:
-- It is impossible to order the include directories.
This is not a fatal error, so you will still be able to compile, but you will possibly be using the wrong versions of libraries and this will product problems that are very hard to diagnose.
You may not experience any problems when installed like I advise not to, however I have and you might too in some typical situations.
The CMake modules should be installed local into ~/install/cmake/modules or similar. When following the current instructions 6.1: Install additional CMake modules, it's impossible to do a non-root installation, because "kdelibs/cmake/modules/cmake_install.cmake" wants to install the modules to "/cmake/modules". (I didn't install CMake local, because my system already provided CMake > 2.4.3).
I've already tried to do this, fiddling around with CMAKE_MODULE_PATH and DATA_INSTALL_DIR but couldn't get it working.
Does anybody know how to do this properly?
--Eliasp 15:44, 4 January 2007 (CET)
Since the patents expired, why not use giflib?
In Qt part I had problems with error like this: QtForum thread. I had GCC 3.3.X installed. Using -pch flag (as in recipe) get me errors. Someone friendly gave me tip on #kde-devel not to use this flag, although I didn't test it. Instead I've just updated gcc and g++ from debian repositories. Newer version works fine as "Precompiled headers are supported in GCC (3.4 and newer)" Wikipedia pch.
You might want to include the dashboard link to show which modules currently build and which don't. --220.127.116.11 13:28, 20 March 2007 (CET)
- openldap - cyrus
If there was a line at the top like:
sudo apt-get install libaaa-dev libbbb-dev ...-dev ...
This would be very useful and save hours. Is this something we should do?
after running 'su - kde4' and 'export' i saw that no variables in .bashrc were set, instead the old one (of the system) where set. I tried 'su kde4' and it worked fine. Why is that?
I'm running gentoo 2006.1 amd64
Are "-pch" and "-qdbus" really needed? The configure script shows that they're enabled by default. --McEnroe 16:49, 19 April 2007 (CEST)
It would be nice to know how much space (roughly, in GB) you need for a setup to build and run the basic things and packages. --Liquidat 03:08, 7 June 2007 (CEST)
With the kdesupport package I have an install error:
CMake Error: Error in cmake code at
/media/local/kde-devel/kde/build/kdesupport/qca/plugins/qca-logger/cmake_install .cmake:35:
FILE cannot create directory: /usr/lib/qt4/plugins/crypto. Maybe need administrative privileges.
Current CMake stack: /media/local/kde-devel/kde/build/kdesupport/cmake_install.c make;/media/local/kde-devel/kde/build/kdesupport/qca/cmake_install.cmake;/media/ local/kde-devel/kde/build/kdesupport/qca/plugins/cmake_install.cmake;/media/loca l/kde-devel/kde/build/kdesupport/qca/plugins/qca-logger/cmake_install.cmake
make: *** [install] Error 255
Why is it trying to install that system wide?
Line numbers:
Once the patches have been applied, we then set up the build using the configure script (line 5-7). Finally, we build the minimal requirements for KDE (line 8)...
It should be 5-6 for configure and 7 for make.
Explanation is wrong because there is no make install command. And this directory will be used directly. But in the article: "...we build the minimal requirements for KDE (line 8) and install (line 9-10) Qt". But in lines 9-10:
Best regards, powerfox.
Why does the recipe for kdesupport only say "cs" before getting the source and building while the "cmakekdeall" function in the example .bashrc says "cs KDE/kdesupport && svn up && cmakekde"?
It should either use the KDE subfolder or it shouldn't but now I'm confused as to which of the two is right.
(sorry for grammar errors if they occur) So,
I,m using Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon and I had problems with soprano library at installing kdelibs.
cmakekde requires to install kdelibs the version of soprano library, which does not exist in ubuntu repositories. The needed version you can find e.g. here: http://ubuntu2.cica.es/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/universe/s/soprano/
From this website you have to download libsoprano-dev and libsoprano4 having the same suffix (e.g. ubuntu1~gutsy1_all.deb if you are using Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon).
Go to directory where you downloaded packages and install each package using dpkg ( I have forgotten the order, so try and when something goes wrong, dpkg shows an information and proposes a solution).
After this remove ~/kde/build/KDE/kdelibs/CMakeCache.txt and try again to install kdelibs.
Good luck :)
I've been trying to set up a KDE4 development environment today on a openSUSE 10.3 system and encountered the following (possible) errors in this article:
Missing packages:
kdevelop3 - David Faure's cmakekde bash function uses Kdevelop3 as makefile generator. Without the kdevelop3 package cmake fails to start on my install.
strigi-devel - Building kdelibs fails if strigi-devel is not installed
Questionable packages:
Following a gut feeling I'd like to ask why the following packages are required for setting up a KDE4 development environment:
strigi strigi-ui kdesdk3

Actor David Hasselhoff, the "America's Got Talent" judge known for his playfully Hoff-ful puns, has listed his longtime family home in Encino at $4,195,000.
The 8,947-square-foot Southern Colonial, with five bedrooms and five bathrooms, sits on nearly 1.5 acres entered through double gates.
A tree-lined drive leads to the two-story home, which has a two-story great room with soaring ceilings looking out on the backyard and a boulder-lined swimming pool with spa. There is a formal dining room, a screening room, two guesthouses and a tennis court.
"America's Got Talent," which first aired in 2006, has been the top Nielsen-rated TV show for most of the summer since returning for its fourth season in June. To borrow the vernacular of judge Hasselhoff, the reality competition is "Hoff the charts."
The 57-year-old actor starred in "Baywatch" from 1989 to 2000 and "Knight Rider" (1982-86). In addition to his work in films and on other television shows, the Hoff has had a strong following in Europe as a recording artist since the late '80s. He will perform "Feeling Good" on Wednesday's semifinal results show.
The property is co-owned by his ex-wife, actress Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff, and was purchased in 1996. The Hasselhoffs raised their children in the house, which has a mix of family and entertaining space.
Bach-Hasselhoff, 45, appeared in "Baywatch" (1991-2000) and "Sirens" (1994-95), among other shows.
Patricia Hodson of Sotheby's International Realty, Sunset, and Gina Martino of Prudential California Realty, Beverly Hills, have the listing.
L.A. condo for a familiar character
Veteran actor James Hong has purchased a condo in a courtyard-style building in Los Angeles for $721,000.
The two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit has 1,437 square feet of space plus a patio with fireplace off the living room, according to the Multiple Listing Service. Features include a formal dining room, hardwood floors, city views and custom cherry cabinets and granite counters in the kitchen.
Hong, 80, has hundreds of acting credits extending back to 1955. He is in the upcoming films "How to Make Love to a Woman" (2009) and "The Lost Medallion: The Adventures of Billy Stone" (2011) and was in "Balls of Fury" (2007). His voice work includes a role in "Kung Fu Panda" (2008) as well as the video game.
He was one of the founders of L.A.'s East West Players, which has been producing theatrical works since 1965.
The listing agent was Danny Mahelka of Coldwell Banker's Sunset Boulevard office, and the sales agent was Eve Gogola of the same office, according to the MLS.
'Hung' up on the Hollywood Hills
Noreen Halpern, executive producer of HBO's "Hung," and her husband, Kevin Murphy, the Emmy-winning writer and producer of "Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical," have listed their Hollywood Hills home at $1,195,000.
The English country-style home, built in 1927, has four bedrooms and three bathrooms in 2,736 square feet. There are coved ceilings, small-pane windows and two fireplaces. A walled brick courtyard, spa and mature fruit trees are among the outdoor features.
The couple purchased the house in 2004, a few months before they were married.
"It was the first house we both fell in love with," Murphy said. "It looks like a woodland cottage from the street, but once you get closer, it's an enormous multilevel home with a canyon view and a double lot."
The house has been the site of outdoor parties and catered dinners.
"It's an amazing entertainer's home," Murphy said. But he is particularly struck by the grounds, which he described as "tranquil and visually stunning, especially at night."
They are selling because they bought a larger home to accommodate their growing family.
"We love the Hollywood Hills, so we're only moving four minutes away," Murphy said. The pair purchased bestselling biographer J. Randy Taraborrelli's 4,557-square-foot Spanish-style compound, which includes a pool and guesthouse, in May for $3.1 million.
Halpern, 44, is executive producer of the upcoming TV series "Shattered" (2009) and "Copper" (2010).
In addition to his work on "Reefer Madness" (2005), Murphy, 42, has been a writer and producer for "Desperate Housewives" (2004-07), among other televisions shows. He is working on adapting the movie "Heathers" into a musical.
The listing agent is Frank Bruno of Keller Williams Realty Sunset.
Kings owner makes a move
Update: Maloof Cos. President Joe Maloof has sold his Brentwood house for $4 million.
White trim, fencing and dormer windows give the two-story gated home a traditional look while hardwood floors, wainscoting and crown moldings continue the theme indoors. There are five bedroom suites, each with a walk-in closet and balcony, and 5 1/2 bathrooms in 6,100 square feet.
The main entry hall has a dramatic black-and-white floor, high ceilings and a sweeping staircase lined with windows. An oval-shaped saltwater pool sits in the lushly landscaped backyard.
The Mandeville Canyon-area property came on the MLS in October at $4,995,000.
Maloof, 53, purchased the home newly built in 2004 for $4.75 million, public records show. He oversees the family business empire, which owns the Sacramento Kings and Monarchs basketball teams, the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas and other enterprises.
Susan Stark of Gibson International, Brentwood, had the listing, according to the MLS. Charles Pence of Coldwell Banker, Santa Monica, represented the buyer.

Given how quickly and unexpectedly the situation has gone from dire to catastrophic in Iraq, it pays to be wary about making predictions, but at the moment it looks as if the country is entering a prolonged period of conflict rather than any sort of decisive military outcome.
There have been clashes between ISIS and Iraqi security forces on the approaches to Baghdad, but for now, an assault on the heavily fortified capital seems unlikely. While it's clear what's most needed right now to avert the complete collapse of the Iraqi state is a concerted effort by the Shiite-dominated central government to reach an accord with Sunni and Kurdish leaders, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki appears to have little interest in doing so.
Meanwhile, outside powers are tentatively getting more involved. The U.S. is sending in 275 military personnel, seemingly in an effort to avert a new Benghazi at the embassy in Baghdad. Some special operations forces may also be sent to advise the Iraqi government forces.
Iraqi security forces are apparently also being assisted by an elite unit of Iran's Revolutionary Guard. Qassem Suleimani, the head of Iran's Quds Force and a longtime behind-the-scenes player in Baghdad, is reportedly on the ground. Turkey is negotiating for the release of embassy personnel and their families taken hostage in Mosul last week—and has imposed a media blackout over the crisis—but seems unlikely to launch any larger intervention.
The most likely scenario at the moment appears to be a sectarian war spanning both Iraq and Syria. Iran and Saudi Arabia—already heavily involved in the Syrian conflict—now find the war literally on their borders.
Last year I wrote a post on a World Bank research paper by economists Mark Gersovitz and Norma Kriger arguing that conflicts like the one in Syria should be thought of not as "civil wars"—which implies an internal conflict between domestic forces—but as "regional war complexes,": "ongoing sometimes active, sometimes dormant conflicts involving multiple countries over years or decades."
I've been reminded of the paper this week, and it seems like a fairly useful way of thinking about the conflict. An anti-government revolution in Syria, an extremist group's quest to build an Islamic state, a sectarian conflict in Iraq, a larger regional Sunni-Shiite proxy battle involving Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the Gulf states, and the residual effects of the U.S. invasion of Iraq are all dynamics driving this conflict.
This is a becoming a regionwide conflict, and given how many interrelated factors are involved, my guess is that it will take months or years rather than days or weeks to sort itself out.

In the early days when the world was new, spirits and ghosts lurked everywhere. They lived in gloomy caves, they hid in anthills and tree trunks they frolicked in nooks and corners under the houses. In the dark, sometimes their tiny voices could be heard dimly, or their ghostly presence be felt. But they were never seen.
It was during these days of phantoms and unseen spirits that a young and beautiful girl lived. Her name was Raya, and she was a girl bold and daring. She was never afraid of spirits. She would walk in the shadowy forests, bringing along a lighted candle.
Then she would tiptoe into dark and dirty caves, searching the place for spirits. Raya only felt or heard them never having seen them. But Raya always felt the presence of one kind spirit, whenever she walked in the forest the spirit was with her at all times.
One day she heard someone call her name, and she looked up to see a young handsome man. She asked him who he was, and he replied that his name was Sag-in, and he was the spirit who followed her around, and even confessed that he had fallen in love with a mortal.
They married had a child and lived happily, but Sag-in knew that
his time on earth was short for he was a spirit-man, and would have to
return to the spirit world soon. When he knew his time had come, he called
Raya and explained why he had to leave. As he was slowly vanishing, he
told Raya that he would leave her a part of him. Raya looked down and saw
a bleeding heart on
the ground. She took the heart and planted it. She watched it night and day. A plant with long green leaves sprouted from the grave.
One day, the tree bore fruit shaped like a heart. She touched the fruit and caressed it. Thinking could this be Sag-in's heart? Slowly the fruit opened , Long golden fruits sprouted from it. Raya picked one, peeled it and bit into it. Then, she heard Sag-in's voice floating in the air:
"Yes, Raya, it is my heart. I have reappeared to show you that I will never forsake you and our child. Take care of this plant, and it will take care of you in return. It's trunk and leaves will give you shelter and clothing. The heart and fruits will be your food. And when you sleep at night, I will stand and watch by your window. I will stay by your side forever!"

Car Review
2015 Volkswagen GTI: First Drive Review
Can it get any better than the outgoing Mk6 Volkswagen GTI? That question was front and center for us as we began our first drive of the 2015 Volkswagen GTI, known as the Mk7. The Mk6 was already so rewarding and well-rounded that VW could have just kept making it indefinitely, and it would have remained a top choice in the hot-hatch segment for years to come. So why didn't they leave well enough alone? How much could the new Mk7 GTI really improve?
They're separate questions, and we'll take each in turn. First, as a practical matter, the new U.S.-market 2015 Golf will be built in Mexico on VW's latest compact platform -- so the Golf-based GTI, previously built in Germany, had to follow suit. That's just business. As for the second question, it turns out that the Mk7 GTI has markedly sharper performance than its predecessor; it's a significantly hotter hatch. Not that the GTI needed more performance, but it's got more of an edge now. Fundamentally, we're talking about the distinction between quick and fast. And if that's an important one for you, you're going to love what VW's done to the place.
The GTI has always been more about overall excellence than jaw-dropping acceleration, but thanks to a new engine under the hood, the Mk7 can build some serious speed. The basic specs remain the same: It's still a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder, but torque is up in a big way, from 207 lb-ft last year to a whopping 258 lb-ft. It's a difference you'll feel every time you punch the gas. Although horsepower is little changed at 210 (the Mk6 made an even 200), that extra torque shoves you back into your seat like a proper sports car engine. Four-cylinder Audis have been making 258 lb-ft for years and, indeed, the new GTI's eager character reminds us of the latest Audi TT. It's a lot of motor for the price.
Athletic Moves
Publications that judge cars by their behavior on a racetrack have long complained about the GTI's relative softness at the limit. That's not a concern for most drivers, but it did make for a bit of bad press where the Mk6 GTI was concerned. Accordingly, the Mk7 has been treated to standard summer performance tires and tightened up for both track and back-road duty. The first thing we noticed was the much more responsive steering, which vaguely reminded us of the Scion FR-S model's ultra-sharp rack -- high praise for a front-drive car with a history of tepid tillers. There's also less body roll this time around, making the GTI feel more solid in spirited driving. The brakes, too, have been revamped, ditching the soft-pedal feel in favor of firm, confidence-inspiring bite.
Think of it this way: Although the previous GTI was plenty capable, its handling was never really something to brag about, whereas the Mk7 gets full bragging rights. This is a dynamic car to drive.
You Know the Rest
Otherwise, the new GTI is very similar to the old one, which is more of a relief than anything else. The Mk7's styling is more creased and angular, but the changes are subtle, even to a trained eye. Inside, the center stack with its beautiful 8-inch touchscreen now tilts slightly toward the driver -- a welcome modification -- but the high-quality materials and classy layout will feel instantly familiar to Mk6 fans, as will the standard plaid upholstery. We were astounded by the 4-door Mk6's ability to accommodate four 6-footers in its compact cabin, and the Mk7 can do the same. There's nothing outside of the performance category that makes the new GTI a must-buy compared to the old one, but there are also no unpleasant surprises. If you liked the Mk6, the Mk7's bound to satisfy.
Best Car Under $30,000?
Pricing hasn't been finalized for the 2015 Volkswagen GTI, but we expect it to start around $25,000, with only fully loaded versions cresting the $30,000 mark. So we have to ask: Is this the best sub-$30,000 car money can buy? If you value driving satisfaction in addition to the usual suspects (style, quality and versatility), the 2015 GTI could very well be the winner. It's the kind of car that leaves you wondering whether you really need anything more. And at this price point, it doesn't get any better than that.

ColdFusion and SQL Server
An overview of using ColdFusion for Web development on the SQL Server platform
If you've recently been charged with setting up a Web server to interact with SQL Server, your choice of development environments probably comes down to Active Server Pages (ASP) or Allaire ColdFusion. A SQL Server Magazine Instant Poll showed that more SQL Server developers use ASP than ColdFusion (you can find the results at http://www.sqlmag.com/Poll/Main.cfm?QID= 99&Action=PreviousPoll). But ColdFusion is a powerful tool that offers a viable alternative to ASP, as I'll demonstrate in this article by using examples from my experience as Web technology manager for SQL Server Magazine and Windows 2000 Magazine.
The ColdFusion Application Server runs as a multi- threaded process that provides a runtime environment for application logic and dynamic page generation. You usually develop ColdFusion applications as a package of scripted pages that might have other components such as COM. When a browser requests a page in a ColdFusion application, ColdFusion Server processes the scripting in the page, interacts with other components, connects with back-end systems, and dynamically generates the HTML page that is returned to the browser.
In general, ColdFusion does what ASP does. But you might find among ColdFusion's specific features and functionality some compelling reasons to choose it. The people who use database servers as Web site tools often include software programmers, database administrators, and graphic designers or other people with no programming or development experience. You need a diverse set of tools to serve this diverse group of people. ColdFusion lets you create powerful Web applications, even if you're not a hard-core programmer. If you are an experienced programmer, you'll appreciate ColdFusion's power and flexibility.
If you want to use a Web server other than Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) or run an OS other than Windows NT or Windows 2000 (Win2K), ColdFusion is a good option because you can run it on different Web servers and you can run it on other OSs, including Solaris, HP-UX, and Linux. And except for a few OS-specific features, such as case sensitivity for UNIX, your ColdFusion code will run on all these OSs. To test this notion, I downloaded the Linux version of ColdFusion and installed it on a Red Hat Linux 6.1 box running the Apache Web server, and the code I developed for our NT-based Web servers ran correctly on that box.
ColdFusion comes in three versions: Express, Professional, and Enterprise. The Express and Professional versions are for Windows and Linux OSs, and the Enterprise version is for Windows, Linux, Solaris, and HP-UX. Express is a free, limited-functionality version of ColdFusion. It's a great place to start if you're interested in trying the product. The Professional version is the complete solution and supports full-text searching and connectivity to email, files, and distributed objects. The Enterprise version includes the features the Professional version contains, plus it supports clustering, load balancing, server failover, native database drivers, and other high-end features for enterprise and e-commerce applications.
ColdFusion supports native integration with various technologies, including ODBC-compliant databases, OLE DB, email through POP and SMTP, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), file servers through native file system support and FTP, and distributed objects through COM and Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB). The Enterprise version of ColdFusion includes Common Object Resource Broker Architecture (CORBA) and native database drivers.
The ColdFusion programming environment centers on an intuitive, tag-based, server scripting language called the ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML). CFML controls the application logic, back-end integration, and dynamic page generation. CFML features tight integration with HTML, structured exception handling, regular expressions, and easy expansion with COM, CORBA, and C/C++.
Listing 1 demonstrates how to use ColdFusion to complete a simple task-getting a customer list from various companies and grouping the output according to company name. The code outputs the results you see in Listing 2. This example shows how simple CFML is to use. You use a straightforward tag to query the database and an equally straightforward grouping of tags to get the desired output.
Let's investigate how each ColdFusion component works for developing and administrating Web applications.
Query caching. In some cases, using query caching can yield a bigger performance gain than using stored procedures. Stored procedures are an efficient way to set up and use queries. But if you want to maintain a dynamic area of your site, query caching is the perfect tool. For example, we use query caching on the Windows 2000 Magazine home page to check for changes or new content based on the time frame we determine. Listing 3 shows an example of a query we use to pull recent news stories from the database. The query retrieves the most recent three news stories and ensures that they weren't displayed in another spot on the home page. The query makes calls to the SQL Server machine at 10-minute intervals. The CACHEDWITHIN parameter lets you set the time interval to days, hours, minutes, and seconds. Until the designated expiration time, ColdFusion maintains the query results in memory.
Web Distributed Data Exchange (WDDX). Exchanging data among servers with different programming environments is a challenge, no matter how simple the data structure is. Even if you were to use Extensible Markup Language (XML), the people on both ends of the data exchange would need to learn XML and create and agree on a common Document Type Definition (DTD). But by using WDDX on both ends, each side can convert the data to a common format. WDDX uses an XML vocabulary for describing complex data structures such as arrays and record sets in a basic way so you can move the data among different application server platforms by using only HTTP. Target programming environments for WDDX include ColdFusion, ASP, JavaScript, and Perl.
Listing 4 shows how you can use WDDX to serialize into XML an array created in ColdFusion and send the array to an ASP server that will then deserialize it from XML into a VBScript array object with all the types natively converted. Using WDDX makes the conversion process between languages relatively transparent.
CFMAIL. You can use the CFMAIL tag to create email messages in which the recipients' names and addresses and the message are generated dynamically. In other words, you can query a database for recipients' email addresses or other information and create an email message on the fly. ColdFusion supports connectivity to email servers with SMTP through the CFMAIL tag. With the example in Listing 5, I can notify someone in another department by email when certain company accounts are going to expire. I set up a scheduled task, and the recipient gets daily notifications.
CFHTTP. You can use CFHTTP to download a file, document, or Web page from any site and store its contents in a ColdFusion variable so that a ColdFusion application can manipulate the data or store it as a file on the server. For example, we use CFHTTP to pull Web pages from the Monster Board Web site. We then parse through the pages for the data we want and display it on our site.
Custom Tags. Using custom tags is an efficient way to reuse code. Custom tags let you call a page built in CFML and add its functionality to any ColdFusion application. You can write the tags or obtain them from ColdFusion resources, including the Allaire Web site (http://www.allaire.com). Let's say you repeatedly add functionality to your site that displays only when certain values are passed to it. Rather than rewriting the code each time you need to use it, you could write a custom tag and send variables to it. We use the following tag on the Windows 2000 Magazine Web site to tell users whether they need subscriber access to view a particular article.
CF_AccessImage AccessLevel="#AccessLevel#">
The CF_ before AccessImage tells ColdFusion to look in the current directory, then the Custom Tag directory, for a file called AccessImage.cfm. If we need to change the default settings of the tag, we simply pass those attributes. By default, we show the small image. But in some circumstances, we might need to show the big image, which the code in Listing 6 does.
Another great use of custom tags is to deploy code written by someone who's willing to let you use it. For example, the DirectoryList\_Enhanced tag in Listing 7, which I downloaded from Allaire's site, makes a list of all the files in a directory and its subdirectories with the file extensions you specify in the filter parameter. Because someone else had already written the 100-plus lines of code I needed, and I needed to use the code in only one place, using the tag made sense.
Debugging. One especially developer-friendly feature of ColdFusion is its debugging capability. If debugging is turned on, ColdFusion delivers an enormous amount of information with each page to any person with an approved IP address. Because ColdFusion administration is Web-based, from any computer with Internet access I can enter the IP address of the machine I'm on and instantly receive de- bugging information.Screen 1 shows a sample of information the debugger gives you. This information can help you tweak a page for better performance or identify the source of a problem. ColdFusion 4.5 includes the capability to determine the time it takes to process each component that makes up the delivered page. This feature helps you isolate the specific component that's causing a problem.
The debugging tool also shows how the query performed. You receive a count of records returned and how long it took the query to run. In Listing 8, you can see that the query Question returned 1 record and took 1 millisecond (ms) to run. The stored procedure instaNTQuestion returned 1 question and took 0ms to run. But the query getNews shows that it returned cached results because the time is listed as Cached Query. The last pieces of debugging information, URL Parameters and Form Fields, show what values are being passed from one page to another.
ColdFusion's Web-based administration lets you manage and tune the ColdFusion server from any browser. Here are some of the tasks you can do with the ColdFusion Administrator:
- Data-source management. You can create, edit, delete, or verify data sources on the Web server, as Screen 2 shows.
- Page scheduling. The ColdFusion Administrator's scheduling facility lets you schedule the execution of ColdFusion pages and generate static HTML pages. Page scheduling is useful for a page that needs to remain dynamic but whose content changes only every few hours. For example, the Windows 2000 Magazine home page is dynamic because it draws information from a database, but the information doesn't change every minute, and no parameters are passed that require the page to vary. I can schedule ColdFusion to run the dynamic page, save it as an HTML-only page that doesn't require a SQL Server request, and serve the page. Screen 3 shows the scheduled task.
- Caching. ColdFusion offers page and database connection caching. ColdFusion caches pages into memory across multiple user requests, giving you a noticeable performance advantage over having a page built each time a user calls it. ColdFusion also caches and pools database connections for use across multiple client requests. Database connection caching improves a Web site's performance by eliminating ODBC connection times and by having multiple page requests share the same connection.
- Automatic server recovery. You have the option to configure automatic server recovery. For example, you can tell ColdFusion to restart the ColdFusion service after the occurrence of a certain number of failed requests that execute component code such as an ODBC driver or a CFX tag. ColdFusion 4.5 includes the ability to restart the ColdFusion service when requests terminate abnormally. If you enable this option, the engine will track requests that encounter abnormal termination conditions.
- Verity Search Engine. ColdFusion's Verity Search Engine lets you use a directory structure to index any textual data stored in relational databases and standard text and document files. To index static files, you first create a new collection. Then you assign a path and the extensions of the files you want to index. Next, click Update, and you're finished. Indexing ODBC data sources requires you to take a few more steps, but it's also a simple and flexible process.
Is ColdFusion the ideal Web development environment for everyone? Not necessarily. If your company already uses Visual Basic (VB) and is expanding into Web applications, then the ASP environment might make more sense for you, particularly if you work in an exclusively NT or Win2K environment. However, developing Web applications using ASP requires developers who are proficient in VB and VBScript.
In contrast, I've observed programmers with little or no ColdFusion experience create dynamic pages within one week after seeing ColdFusion for the first time. Within a few months, they were creating extensive, complex Web applications. Because of its ease of use and its flexibility, ColdFusion might be the right choice for your Web development environment.

You can improve performance and increase broker stability under load by properly managing broker memory. Memory management can be configured on a destination-by-destination basis or on a system-wide level (for all destinations, collectively).
To configure physical destination limits, see the properties described in Physical Destination Properties.
If message producers tend to overrun message consumers, messages can accumulate in the broker. The broker contains a mechanism for throttling back producers and swapping messages out of active memory under low memory conditions, but it is wise to set a hard limit on the total number of messages (and message bytes) that the broker can hold.
Control these limits by setting the imq.system.max_count and the imq.system.max_size broker properties.
For example:
The defined value above means that the broker will only hold up to 5000 undelivered and/or unacknowledged messages. If additional messages are sent, they are rejected by the broker. If a message is persistent then the clinet runtime will throw an exception when the producer tries to send the message. If the message is non-persistent, the broker silently drops the message.
When an exception is thrown in sending a message, the client should process the exception by pausing for a moment and retrying the send again. (Note that the exception will never be due to the broker's failure to receive a message; the exception is thrown by the client runtime before the message is sent to the broker.)

As the Orioles prepare to start spring training later this week at the Ed Smith Stadium complex in Sarasota, Fla., here's a look at what other media outlets are saying about the team.
* ESPN's Tim Kurkjian discusses Orioles center fielder Adam Jones' ability to go from cracking jokes and doing impressions off the field to being all about business on it.
And then Jones stopped laughing, paused and said, "But when that game starts ..."
When that game starts, that's when we see the other side of Jones, one of the best...

Chinese iPhone-maker Foxconn is putting a hold on hiring and cutting production of the iPhone 5, the Financial Times reports.
Foxconn is China's largest private sector employer.
There are all kinds of reasons this could be happening.
Some possibilities:
- Apple might be gearing up to build a new version of the iPhone. They have already been plenty of leaks about hte iPhone 5S.
- Apple could be switching manufacturers.
- Apple could be screwed, dealing with a saturated smartphone market.

Paul Tassi has a great post up on the "idiocy" of blaming the Norway massacre on violent video games.
It turns out the shooter in that tragedy says he "trained" by playing Call of Duty. Setting aside how ludicrous that notion is, it is even more ludicrous to suggest that Call of Duty was any sort of inspiration for the shooting spree itself.
As Paul notes, correlation is not causation. That a person prone to violent acts would be drawn to violent media does not suggest a person not prone to violent acts would be made violent through violent media.
So why not take a look at the science? So far, no study has conclusively linked violent video games to violent crime or youth violence, and a number have pointed to just the opposite.
In August of 2007, Dr. Christopher J. Ferguson of Texas A&M published a study showing that many studies of violence in video games have 'publication bias' baked into the reports, and even then, of the 25 studies he surveyed, none show any causal link between violence in video games and violence in real life.
In 2010, Dr. Fergusson and Dr. Stephanie M. Rueda published another study in which they took a sample of 103 young adults and had them solve a "frustration task." Separating the participants into four groups, the researches had one group play no video game, one play a non-violent video game, one play as good guys in a violent game, and one play as bad guys in a violent game.
They found that the games had no impact on aggressive behavior whatsoever, and that the group which played no game at all was the most aggressive after the task, whereas the group that played the violent games were the least hostile and depressed.
There are many other studies which come to the same conclusions - or lack of conclusions - about the risk of violent video games affecting behavior in real life.
Many social and behavioral researchers point out that violence in the home and poverty are better indicators of anti-social or violent behavior.
Add to this the fact that the gaming industry is now measured in the tens of billions of dollars every year, with global revenue well over $60 billion annually.
At the very same time as video games started going mainstream, violent crime began to fall.
Indeed, the correlation between the growth in the gaming industry and the fall in violent crime is startling even if it is only a correlation.
Violent crime is at an all-time low in America. Here's a look at falling violent crime numbers, courtesy of the FBI.
Meanwhile, games sales are on the rise in the US (in billions US$):
It's not hard to combine the two graphs in your mind's eye and see the two lines cross.
As The Economist put it several years ago: "The opposition to gaming springs largely from the neophobia that has pitted the old against the entertainments of the young for centuries. Most gamers are under 40, and most critics are non-games-playing over-40s."
Why the media keeps spinning this same tale is not particularly perplexing. The news plays to our fears, whether substantiated or no, and since video games first rolled on to the scene, parents have been fearful of the effects violent video games might have on their kids. Find some correlation and you've got yourself a clickable headline. The Norway shooter played a violent video game? Send it to print!
Why are violent crimes down? It may not have anything to do with video games. Still, it's also possible that relatively cheap, accessible, and time-consuming electronic diversions keep people occupied who might otherwise be out getting into trouble. Maybe the more time people spend playing games, the less time and motivation they'll have to go out and commit crimes. Or maybe there's no link at all.
But on a purely intuitive level, I can't help but think that the more people we have playing games the better. The more people who can gain access to the internet and to other relatively cheap and engaging diversions, like games and social media, the better off our society will become.

I have talked to some american and canadian friends about this idea. I have also talked to some puerto rican and american friends about the idea of Puerto Rico joining (something that is way, way closer to actually happening). I think they are similar topics as it pertains to how folks from those regions feel about a possible annexation.
Americans regarding Canada joining
- Do they really want to join though?
- California has a higher GDP than them, why do we need them?
- Most of CA is ice and the majority of people are close the border and want to be here. We don't need that headache
- We can barely govern ourselves as is, states should be seceding, not more states joining
- Why would their Prime Minister want that? Just so he wouldn't have a job?
- No need to spend all that time and money, if we ever need their resources, we'll just take it
Americans, regarding Puerto Rico joining
- They are broke, highly unemployed, highly uneducated population, horrible schools.....why do we want them?
- Don't see the need for it, we don't have the money to help them. If anything, we should let them go their way
- Aren't they already a state?
- As long they make their official language english
- Could be a good idea if they can turn their problems around. Beautiful island, beautiful beaches, with the right government and leadership, it could be the Hawaii of the east
Puerto Ricans and Canadians regarding joining the union
- We are going to lose our (Puerto Rican/Canadian) identity, which is the heart and soul of what we have
- A lot of talk about olympic games and national team/national pride
- (PR)If we don't join soon, we'll be close to what Haiti is now, by joining we can rebound
- (CA)Could be good for people who are looking to move to the US and work legally
- (CA)Would have to change the gun laws and health care system
Regarding point 1, I think you don't have to lose your sense of self of where you're from and your origins. New Yorkers, Californians, and especially Texans certainly don't. I would expect to see something similar, i.e. PR flags and Canadians flags all over. On point 2, I think it's silly to let that hinder progress., but I understand. There's a healthy rivalry between the US and Canada in hockey, rugby, etc as well as Puerto Ricans love their PR boxers and basketball players. So, I understand and if that's really that big a hindrance, you could have the nations play separately like they do in the UK. I would prefer to have one nation represented internationally in sporting events, but the UK model would work if sports is that big an issue.
I would like to know on timing and circumstances you guys think for an annexation to happen.
Regarding PR, if Pierluisi or Fortuno (both very pro statehood) defeat Padilla (or another one from his party), then I believe the binding referendum will be put to a vote rather quickly (it's already been approved by the federal government, with a 2.5M budget). My understanding is that it'll ask, "are you in or out" - basically independence or statehood. Once that's done, I would expect a 51st star on our flag, maybe by as early as 2020 or earlier. I do worry about the current state of PR, it'll take a while to turn that mess around.
Regarding Canada, I don't know, it seems to me that, if Alex's research is accurate, the timing where there was most support from both sides of the border was when the US economy was booming and the Canadian economy was lagging. US/CA dollar ratio was around 1.4 or 1.5. So I believe some similar circumstances would need to happen. Basically a booming US economic and an economic crash in Canada (I read about a house bubbling happening in Canada right now, not sure how true that is). Maybe the US/CA ratio to get up to 1.7 or higher and then we can start seeing more support on both sides. As is, I don't see much support happening. Would like to get some of you guys' opinions on what it would take.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. - The Bulldogs tumbled to second place in a quad meet at home this afternoon against Bridgeport, Rhode Island College and Springfield College. Yale's team score of 190.4 was a season-high for the team and was only bested by Bridgeport's 193.075. Springfield placed third with a 185.625 and RIC rounded out the competition with a 170.7.
Junior Tara Feld and freshman Morgan Traina each had standout all-around performances, with each gymnast hitting four out of four routines. Feld was fourth on vault with a 9.725, eighth on bars with a 9.55, eighth on beam with a 9.45, and second on floor with a 9.775. She placed second in the all-around with a 38.5 and was only a quarter of a tenth away from all-around winner Monica Mesalles Sallares, a Bridgeport junior who represented Spain in gymnastics at the 2004 Olympics.
Traina placed third in the all-around with a 38.475. She was eighth on vault with a 9.5, third on bars with a 9.75, third on beam with a 9.725, and thirteenth on floor with a 9.5. Fellow freshman Joyce Li also competed in the all-around and placed fourth with a 37.6. Li competed a high-flying layout yurchenko for a 9.35 on vault and placed fifth on bars with a 9.725. Li was sixth on beam with a 9.575 but fell on the last pass of her floor routine.
Junior Stephanie Goldstein has a solid showing on the vault and the floor exercise, scoring a 9.4 and a 9.525, respectively, on each event. However, Goldstein struggled on the beam, as did teammate sophomore Tabitha Tay. However, Tay bounced back and scored a 9.5 on the floor exercise, the final event for the Bulldogs.
Other notable performances included junior Lindsay Andsager's standout bar routine, which scored a career-high 9.85 and was good enough for first place. Sophomore Nicole Tay was second on bars with a career-high 9.775, and Yale gymnasts took three of the top four spots on the event. Nicole also competed on floor and placed eighth with a 9.55. Freshman Brianna Chrisman competed a notable exhibition routine on the floor exercise. Although her score did not count towards the team total, her high-powered tumbling resulted in a score of 9.625 on the event and showcased Yale's depth on the event. Senior captain Mia Yabut only competed vault, but her layout yurchenko scored a 9.3, good enough for thirteenth place. Finally, junior Maren Hopkins competed on the beam in her second meet of the season and beautifully executed both her flip-flop, layout step-out series and a switch leap to standing back tuck for a tenth-place finish with a score of 9.375.
"We're improving slowly," said head coach Barbara Tonry. "At this meet bars was outstanding, vault was okay, but we still have our nemesis--that beam. We need to go back to the drawing board to see what we can do to get the team ready to compete on that event. For floor, we have to work on our tumbling and our endurance."
Report filed by Margaret Greenberg '12, Yale Sports Publicity.
