"PlayStation Plus might just be the smartest thing Sony have ever done. It is, on the surface, an extraordinarily generous offering from the platform holder: in exchange for roughly the price of one new game subscribers get access to literally dozens (the official line is 'up to 65′) of other games."
PS+ is the best paid service on consoles by far. It pays for itself. I just downloaded Darksiders for free and love it thanks to PS+. PS+ gives you many free games every month plus huge discounts on PS store content. All for $50 a year. But it's optional. Of course if you don't want it you can still play your games that you paid $60 for online for free and enjoy YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and access your Netflix account all for free on the PS3's as well. It would be criminal for Sony to charge for those free features. PS+ is just the icing on the cake and the industry is in love with it. PS+ is one reason why the PS3 shot to 2nd place trailing only the Wii despite launching a full year behind. I love PS+. I even use it for my avatar.
I would not have bought a Vita if it wasn't for Plus.
Sony really came through on the Instant Game Collection initiative. It's great if you're an existing PS3/Vita, but even better if you just bought one of the systems.
It's a good deal.
I just can't get past their uber slow DL speeds.

A Liberty version of Rachel Comey
Added Oct 13, 2013
by laurwyn
Tilburg, Netherl...
Fall is here and this is my first fall project!
Earlier this year, Mister brought back some beautiful Liberty prints from London. I have trained him well! One of the fabrics her got me is this beautiful Jack and Charlie Tana Lawn. When you see it from afar, it looks like a simple polka dot print, but it draws you in because from up close, you can see cute pears. It is a beautiful delicate cotton and the quality of the print is beautiful.
I have been waiting some time for the perfect pattern. I wanted to use these 2 meters to make a simple dress that has something special. I found happiness in the last fall collection from Vogue patterns: a really cool Rachel Comey dress: V1350: Lined dress has yoke fronts extending into sleeves, close-fitting bodice with side back seams, raised waist, semi-fitted skirt, side front extends to lower side back, no side seams, mock front bands, and concealed snap closing. I particularly like the neckline and the sleeves. I was also intrigued by the curved side seam on the skirt.
After my usual upgrading, I had to make a couple of adjustments. First, and almost as usual, I had to remove ease along the front neckline. Second, I had to raise the lower back seam. Surprisingly, the curved seam was quite easy to sew. You cannot really see it on the finished dress but it's quite a cool line. I really love this dress and it is my fall staple. The lining makes it warmer. It looks great with or without belts, cardigans, and a variety of stockings colors!
If you are interested in technical close ups, I uploaded a few in my blog post.

I have been thinking about working on this pattern and looking for the right fabric. Well done on the dress and fabric. It looks pretty and cute.
Oct 14, 2013, 04.21 AMby jenss-1
Perfect mix of a cute print with a simple silhouette – nice dress!
Oct 13, 2013, 11.00 PMby schnui
I really like your dress laurwyn and particularly the fabric. I made this same fabric into a shirt and so many people comment on it when I wear it. They all say, I didn't realize those spots were pears. It was the most beautiful fabric to cut out and sew. I am a big fan of Liberty. Your husband has great taste!!!

Great dress and lucky you getting fabric as fab as this for a present x

Its a bit of a tradition in these 'northern' parts to make a hotpot on New Years Eve for supper...why I'm not sure but it seems the ideal one pot meal you can bung in the oven, go to the local pub for a few 'cocktails' and return to a house with an appetite and to a supper that smells and tastes just amazing.
Cooked slowly in an oven in a big pot and served traditionally with pickled red cabbage, pickled onions (my own pickled onions turned out really well by the way) or a favourite accompaniment...what's not to like?
Hotpot can be made in various ways, but in Lancashire you MUST use lamb on the bone (and preferably mutton) as your meat base and if you are making a traditional Lancashire hotpot you should really use some lamb kidneys, but on this occasion I am leaving these out and using a local black pudding as well as the lamb. My delicious recipe will serve 4.

I agree your wife may be experiencing more than just a mild case of the baby blues. Just fyi, mom absolutley can be treated for depression-even medication- without weaning.
on the other hand, when I was pumping after every nursing session with a poorly latching baby, and ready to pass out with exhaustion and frustration in the first few weeks with my oldest, I did some major crying as well, and I was fine once breastfeeding started going well.
Please see my pp about taking a break. if the sns is not working and adding to the frustration, I suggest stop using it for a bit. Will baby nurse without the sns?
this is truly fantastic. Your wife makes enough milk, that is 1/2 the battle won. If baby will nurse well enough to get milk, you can do away with everything else and just nurse. Weak suck or no, you are almost there!Right now my wife's milk supply seems to be doing better and better. She's getting around 2oz per pumping session and we've stashed about 8oz or so in the fridge, which means we are staying ahead of our baby's feeding schedule and are off formula now. Finally!
Nursing with a good latch does not feel like when baby sucks on a finger. That would hurt! A good latch and suck feels like a gentle tugging. Also a good latch may look 'shallow' and still be good. Basically if baby is getting enough milk and it does not hurt, its a good latch. At this age many babies take 30 minutes or more per nursing session and nurse 10-12 times OR MORE a day.But then on the boob my wife reports a very weak suck, almost just like a lick. It seems like baby is just unable to latch fully (only takes in just a bit more than the nipple), and then proceeds to feebly suckle.
Was there a before and after nursing weight check done without the sns?
Dr. Jack Newman has some very good information sheets and videos on using a lactation aid (like the sns) finger feeding, and also how to observe for swallowing etc. http://www.nbci.ca/index.php?option=...tpage&Itemid=1
I also think this is a helpful article. It's important to know what is normal in terms of behavior in these early days. http://kellymom.com/bf/normal/newborn-nursing/

East Webster swept out of playoffs by Hamilton
HAMILTON – East Webster cruised through the first round of the Class 2A softball playoffs, but the second round was nowhere near as kind to the Lady Wolverines on Saturday.
In a best-of-three set for a trip to the North division title series, East Webster was swept by Hamilton, falling 6-3 in the first game and 12-8 in game two.
"Hamilton never gave up and we didn't respond," said Lady Wolverines coach Dallas Ferguson. "They were just the better team today."
East Webster mustered just seven hits in the opener.
Autumn Frost accounted for two of those seven with a home run and a single.
Caroline Hendrix also got a pair of singles.
In game two, Frost again shined in a losing effort, notching another home run as well as a double.
Cayley McClellan added a pair of singles for East Webster as well, but the Lady Wolverines still couldn't force a third game.
"We hit too many fly balls," said Ferguson of the second game.
East Webster, who entered the playoffs as the Region 4 champions, saw its season end.
The Lady Wolverines came into Saturday's affair on the heels of a first round win over O'Bannon. East Webster swept past that series by scores of 16-1 and 17-0.
Hamilton will now face Mantachie for the North championship on October 12.

Author Interview
Tending Bar
An interview with J.R. Moehringer
You've got to be some kind of literary masochist to be willing to take a long, unflinching look at your own personal history—warts, cold sores, pimples and all—then share what you find with a bunch of complete strangers. All the best memoirs in the world, though, are fueled by precisely this kind of fearlessness, and J.R. Moehringer's stunning memoir, The Tender Bar, is no exception.
Raised by a tough, charismatic mother, Moehringer was cursed early on with an absentee father who turned out to be both a deadbeat and a psychopath. After somehow weaseling his way into Yale, a beautiful girl pulverized Moehringer's young heart into a fine powder. Then, after he graduated, he tried to make a living as a top-of-the-line East Coast reporter. Despite his best efforts, he didn't do so well. Through it all, he sought consolation in a neighborhood bar where he found the masculine company and guidance so sorely lacking at home.
Moehringer's story is unique, but only in the sense that everyone's story is unique. His real strength is in how he tells that story. The Tender Bar is blessed with an enviable sense of pacing. This guy knows what to reveal and when to reveal it. He knows how to tell a joke. He also knows how to make you cringe, sometimes at his own less-than-perfect behavior, sometimes at circumstances far beyond his control.
Nancy and Allison over at Bookworks were kind enough to introduce me to The Tender Bar after it came out in hardcover last year. Earlier this month, it was released in paperback, and we all agreed the book would be the perfect inaugural selection for the Alibi's long-planned online book club (see "Alibi Book Club Kick-off").
Although he got off to a rocky start, life turned out just fine for Moehringer. He became a Nieman Fellow at Harvard and a national correspondent for the Los Angeles Times. In 2000, he won the Pulitzer Prize for feature writing.
The Alibi recently convinced him to take a brief break from an ambitious assignment he's working on for the Times to talk about the art of memoirs, the scandal surrounding James Frey's A Million Little Pieces, and the personalities that made his memoir such a joy to read.
What are you working on for the Times these days? Sounds like you've been really busy.
Yes, I've been working on a story about a library in a county where no one can read. It's about the librarian and all his hard work. The librarian just retired, and we're trying to get it into the paper.
Where is the library?
It's down in Mississippi in a county where 45 percent of the population is totally illiterate. The estimates vary as far as functional illiteracy, but it's pretty grim. I think the misconception is these people are illiterate and much of the fault is their own, and I hope this story totally puts that idea to rest. This librarian has done everything he can to pull them out of that abyss. They have made such great use of this library, and the illiteracy rate in this county would be worse without it. If you care about books or words or language, I think it's a story meant for you. I'm hoping it'll get in the paper in the next few weeks.
Amazing. I'll definitely hunt that down. And what will your next book project be? Have you started working on it yet?
I'm taking notes for an idea, but it's fiction, and I don't know that I'm going to write fiction next. I don't know if anyone will let me write fiction next. This idea has a hold of me, though, so I have been involuntarily jotting down notes and doing research and reading. But I may be working not on the next book, but maybe the third or fourth book.
I know you read a lot of memoirs in preparation for writing The Tender Bar. Did that have a heavy effect on your approach to writing it?
Well, the more memoirs you read the more you have faith in the idea that everyone's life has importance and can have resonance if it's structured in a certain way. Because your memoir is so focused on you, you're constantly anticipating the reader's hostility—and there is a hostility that readers bring to memoirs that they don't to other genres. People wonder why they should care about your life when it's all they can do to deal with their own. You're just trying to get them over the suspicion of narcissism.
Since the whole James Frey scandal, readers have become extremely skeptical about memoirs. How do you answer readers' concerns about your credibility? You probably get asked this question all the time, right?
I had a five- or six-month run there after my book came out when people believed that James Frey had told the truth. There was a honeymoon period where if you told the truth in your memoir, as I did, you were able to go out and have discussions with people about the book and not have to submit to the polygraph that memoirists are now submitted to. I actually think James Frey did us a favor, because now we have a chance to really engage the reader and put to rest any doubts they might have about the truthfulness of our books.
Yet the nature of memory makes it impossible to get everything exactly perfect, right? We're talking about the difference between making a few inevitable mistakes and outright lying.
Right. I think what readers look for in a memoir is an effort to make it as truthful as possible. Readers are smart enough to understand that memories are corrupt and people's recollections are different and that recreated dialog is going to be close, but not always, verbatim. But again, I want people to know that I took notes for a novel about the bar I intended to write that would use journalism and reportage. So I was blessed to have cocktail napkins and notebooks that had actual things people said written down in real time. And there's some dialog that is recreated, but it's recreated after interviewing the people I had the conversations with.
Have you gotten much feedback from the people in the book? What do they think about it?
They have been almost all universally pleased with it, I think. I haven't heard from my aunt and cousins. There was that schism in the family that I write about toward the very end. Their silence is their verdict. But all the guys in the bar I wrote about have expressed a lot of pleasure and a lot of pride. If anything else is true, they haven't told me. Of course, my mother has been pleased also with the book.
How is your mom doing?
She's doing quite well. She's the first person people ask about, and I'm very happy to tell them that she's doing well, feeling well. She's a very shy woman, very private, but I think she has enjoyed hearing from strangers, getting letters, and being complimented in reviews and newspapers. That's been a kick for her.
She comes off as a pretty heroic figure.
Yeah, you could definitely argue that through it all, my mother is the hero of this memoir. She got us through incredibly hard times. She helped me when I was losing my mind, applying for college and during college. She really helped me when I was out of control at college. And she had some of the best writing advice I've ever gotten. You know as a writer that when you're really turned around and lost, some of the best advice is good common sense delivered in a tone of compassion and understanding. And that's my mother's specialty.

Big Bash 2012 Colloquium Talks• June 1, 2012 Share:
Being from Wabash, Teaching at DePauw
Keith Nightenhelser '72 and Nick Steele '52 took 45 minutes Saturday afternoon to talk about graduating from Wabash but spending most of their careers teaching at the school down 231.
The two shared academic differences between the two schools, class size, and the differences in requirements. Nightehelser surprised few when he declared there was no doubt Wabash had more stringent requirements. But as can be expected, there were also a few jabs at the institution to the south.
"Insanity has run through the Depauw faculty to the point it's bonkers," Nightenhelser said. ""They've essentially eliminated freshman English. It's going to be really bad."
Wabash College Professor of Religion David Blix also joined the panel. In photo: Blix, Nightenhelser, and Steele.
Traditional Journalist's View of Life in Digital Age
Ron Recinto '87, Managing Editor for Local at Yahoo Detroit, has worked for small newspapers, medium-sized newspapers and most recently for the Detroit Free-Press. He left the Free-Press in 2009 to join Yahoo's news effort.
After a brief introduction, the colloquium turned into a 45-minute discussion on the future of news, newspapers, and online journalism. Recinto answered questions and explained how fast the communications world has changed. He talked mainly about how the news has become segmented - or snacking - and how people get information from numerous sources.
No Ivy on our Walls
Bill Luckey '82 has served as president of Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Kentucky for 14 years – since he was age 36. In his colloquium titled: No Ivy on our Walls he shared the demographics of the college and surrounding Appalachian country and how those demographics shape the college's mission and teaching.
Luckey recalled how the impact his own education as a first generation college student at Wabash changed his trajectory. His goal is for Lindsey Wilson College to provide as rich an experience as it can to the students it serves – 82% of whom are first generation students and 72% Pell grant recipients just as he was.
Community for a Lifetime
When he turns 65, Frank Hagaman '72 wants to get rid of his car.
The founder and former head of Partners in Housing and the chairman of The Land of Indianapolis is tired of the expense, sense of isolation, and the pedestrian-hostile neighborhoods and shopping areas that come with our addiction to autos.
"Our generation will likely live longer than our parents', and for that time I'm looking to remain engaged with the community; I don't want to be fenced off with all the people my age or older, and I want to continue to learn, to work when I want to," Hagaman said.
Research suggests that millions of others nearing retirement age share similar versions of that vision. "As a developer," Hagaman said. "As a developer, that's interesting to me."
He discussed a different model for "naturally occurring retirement communities" that leverages the needs and desires of throngs of retired and semi-retired baby boomers to re-create walkable, multi-generational communities in Indiana's struggling small cities and towns.
Hagaman said Crawfordsville has great potential to become such a community—a vision he encouraged both alumni and the College to consider. He pointed to the city's proximity not only to Indianapolis, but to Chicago via Amtrak, and to the intellectual and cultural events the College provides.
"We have this amazing resource called Wabash College, and this could be a huge opportunity for the College and city to come together, to link assets to create a holistic community."
Hagaman added that recently elected Mayor Todd Barton is a Wabash alumnus.
"You just might want to live near the college; there is a development opportunity here.
"It's a bit of a dream, but that's what we developers do."
Is the Internet Making Us Dumb?
John Kerezy '77 kicked off Saturday's colloquiums asking a provocative question - is the Internet making us dumb?
Kerezy, who teaches journalism and mass communications near Cleveland, presented findings from Nicholas Carr's book, "The Shallows." The book and Kerzey's presentation suggest that skimming and scanning the Net has replaced concentration, contemplation, and reflection.
"It basically weakens our ability to think deeply and comprehend," Kerezy summarized.
"Homeless and On the Road"
During a colloquium session at Big Bash 2007, Barbara and Tom Feit '62 told classmates about their experiences owning a bed and breakfast in Indianapolis.
Five years later, they're "Homeless and on the Road."
On Friday, Feit joined classmates Don Hill and Tom Houk to proclaim the benefits of living much of the year traveling the country via motorhome.
"We ran the bed and breakfast in Indy for years, but we've turned the page on that," Feit said. "And this is a lifestyle we've fallen in love with."
With photos from their adventures displayed on the screen in Hays 104, the three men described the different avenues each had taken to becoming motorhome vagabonds.
Don and Kathleen Hill have been full-time travelers since 2005 and frequently visit well-known destinations during off-season months.
"Yosemite [National Park] is gorgeous, and it's even more marvelous when you have the whole park to yourself," Hill said.
Tom and Gayle Houk were initially interested in camping while traveling and progressed from a two-man tent to a 40-foot diesel pusher motorhome in six months. They've traveled thousands of miles, but Tom said "one of the secrets to traveling this way is taking your time.
"This is the time to learn about where you are, to get to know the people, to get to know your family."
Houk described with awe a recent trip which took them to Glacier National Park's famous "Road to the Sunfirst on the first day it was open for the season.
"It leaves you wondering what we have ever do have the opportunity to live such a life."
Wabash Men Help Build Cancer Treatment Services
With a Wabash graduate as its founder and CEO, it should be no surprise Wabash men have helped Dick Stephenson '62 build the Cancer Treatment Center of America into a premier service for cancer patients.
Stephenson talked about his family and growing up along with the creation of CTCA. Wabash men have played a big role as employees for the company. Stephenson shared stories and talked about the CTCA approach to patient care.

Be Wary of These Dangerous Condom Mistakes You Might be Making
The Tricky Condom
Condoms are crucial for all those couples who want to enjoy sex but at the same time want to play it safe. They are one of the most popular forms of birth control and prevention from sexually transmitted diseases, have been around for a long time. But, just because everyone can wear a condom doesn't mean everyone knows how to do so properly. In fact, Researchers from Indiana University analyzed 50 studies on condom usage, and after punching the numbers on 16 years of data, they found a laundry list of errors. Read on to know top 10 dangerous condom mistakes you might be committing. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ GettyLoading...
Not Checking For Visible Damage
Nearly 75% of people never bother looking for tears or holes, even if they use their teeth to open the packet (don't!) or snag the condom on their jewellery or fingernails, according to a Kinsey Institute report.
Wearing the Condom Late
Many men commit a very common mistake of putting the condom on after the intercourse has already begun. By doing this you can put yourself at the risk of getting various sexual diseases. Always put on the condom before beginning the act of intercourse. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty
Removing the Condom Early
A condom is supposed to be worn until the very end of the intercourse and if you take it off too early, then it actually equals to not wearing a condom. So, make the maximum use of a condom and leave it on till you are done with intercourse. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty
Reusing the Same Condom
Though it may sound odd but many men actually at times, use the same condom at least more than once. Condoms are a use and throw material item. By repeating the same condom during an intercourse you are increasing the risk of unwanted pregnancy. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty
Not Removing Air from the Tip
While wearing a condom, make sure to leave some gap at the tip of the condom so that your semen can get collected. Besides, air at the tip of the condom is supposed to be squeezed out before wearing a condom to avoid breakage during ejaculation. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty
Storing Condoms in a Bad Place
You just can't keep condoms in your wallet and just flip it out during sex. A condom should be stored in a cool and dry place. This will not only be hard to put on and uncomfortable to use but it will also be unsafe. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty
Using Flavoured Condoms Too Much
Almost all flavoured condoms contain sugar which can cause yeast infections. Vaginas even though have a superb bacteria-fighting system, if encountered by any foreign chemicals, can suffer some serious damage. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty
Not Checking the Expiry Date
Before putting on a condom always check for its expiry date. Though a condom's expiration date can be up to 5 years, it is your duty to read the fine-print on the paper for your and your partner's safety. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty
Wearing On the Wrong Side
Many men end up wearing the condom upside down. This mistake not only takes place with first time users, but also with men who has used it several times. If you wear your condom upside down and then remove it to wear it the right way, then actually it is of no use. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty
Opening Condom the Wrong Way
Never use any sharp object to open your condom packet. If you use a sharp object, the chances of your condom getting scratched or damaged are very high. Condoms are delicate and even a minor damage can be life altering. Hence, always open it carefully. Image Coutesy: Thinkstock/ Getty

If you've read our Nexus 4 review roundup, looked at Taylor's 4 reasons he's buying one, taken a look at the 4 things you may want to consider before making the plunge, and you're still itching to get your hands on Google's next flagship device, you're probably wondering, "When can I buy one?" Allow us to attempt to answer that.
Let's just get this out of the way right off the bat. Over this past weekend, it was revealed that Google will not be offering any sort of preorder system. That goes for both the Nexus 4 and Nexus 10. So you haven't already missed the boat. According to a conversation between Android Police and a Google PR representative, Google will being selling and shipping the new Nexus devices tomorrow, November 13. But they haven't said exactly when on November 13.
If the Nexus 4 were to go on sale at midnight Eastern time, you'd have approximately seven hours from now to wait. But that would mean sales on the West coast would open at 9PM, November 12. So perhaps those of us on the East coast will have to wait until 3AM, 12AM Pacific, to begin purchasing? Or maybe Google will just pick a random time in the morning.
Without any official time frame from Google, figuring out exactly when the Nexus 4, and 10, will be available can be confusing to say the least. There is one clue we have from a German Googler that may help us narrow down the window.
In a Google+ post, Googler Stefan Keuchel said (with the aid of Google translate):
Hi - here's an important lesson for anyone interested in purchasing one of the new Nexus device. 4 The Nexus smartphone, the new Nexus Tablet 7 and 10 Nexus Tablet may know, starting tomorrow (Tuesday, 13 November 2012) on Google Play purchased in Germany. I look forward to just as many of you :-) As I learned today, the ordering is, however, only on Tuesday released afternoon / early evening. So it makes no sense today to persevere at midnight in front of computer to buy a Nexus device. I like to keep you informed as soon as I get new information. UPDATE : we pass and so the devices can now but tomorrow morning (breakfast time) purchased through Google Play.Stefan KeuchelGoogle
Assuming the Nexus 4 sees a simultaneous global launch, breakfast time in Germany comes out to an Eastern release time of roughly 12AM to 3AM. If I were a betting man, I'd put my money on 3AM Eastern, 12AM Pacific. That would make it 9AM in Germany, still in time for breakfast.
Why is it so important to pinpoint when the the Nexus 4 will go on sale? There's a good chance that if you don't buy one as soon as possible, you'll be left waiting a couple weeks. Some people may not care, but others will. If we hear anything official, we'll be sure to update you. Unless we hear otherwise, I'll be staying up until 3AM Eastern to see if I can get my hands on a Nexus 4.
Will you be staying up to try and catch the initial release of the Nexus 4 and 10?

As for your scores, I'll accept that you have "no major issues" with question types, that you "understand everything," and that your pacing is improving. If that is all true, then your plateau is due to test anxiety. Test anxiety comes from two places. First, from an irrational fear of failure. This happens when we, in our minds, exaggerate the importance of the test and the negative effects of not doing we well as we would like.
I am sorry to have to disagree with this one aspect. Everything else is right on point, but there are more issues than just text anxiety that result in people not achieving 160's. It is certainly an important factor, but again the vast majority of test takers do not get a 160 or above. Most people don't get straight A's in every subject they have strengths, weaknesses, andlimits. To imply the only reason for a lower score is text anxiety is a bit conclusory. I may have it mistaken, but I thought I read somewhere you had a 170+ LSAT, which is f*ng amazing! However, the vast majority of people no matter how much studying they do are unlikely to achieve that or even if they have no anxiety whatsoever.
@Earl, first....LOLOL at the "cue Julie Fern" comment!!! Thanks for your ideas! Perhaps some of it may be anxiety. Perhaps I am exaggerating the importance of my score and all the negative effects of a bad score. Your point about comfort and familiarity really made me think, though. LSAT questions are definitely not as comfortable as simply math problems under a time constraint. But how long does it take one to get that comfortable with LSAT questions? It seems like most LSAT takers only need a couple months of prep to improve their score. But my score has never improved, not even one point, since I started studying months ago. Will it take 2 years of studying for me to get comfortable enough with LSAT questions in the time constraints? Does it take some people a much longer time to start to see improvements? Or is it possible that I will never, ever be able to do any better than my diagnostic of 149? I'm so hopeless right now that I think I'd even be happy with a practice test just one or two points higher than my 149 diagnostic/best/current score. But right now, even that seems unlikely. Is there anything I can do? Or is my case hopeless?

The Roadrunners jump to 3-9-1 overall and 2-1-1 in the CUSA, while the Lady Monarchs fall to 1-9-1 overall and 1-3 in conference play.Despite the Lady Monarch's advantages in corners (10-3) and shots (17-12) for the game, it was the Roadrunners who came out on top in this conference matchup.Scoring started off in the 8th minute of play, when UTSA's Anissa Munson took three dribbles and made her way into ODU's box, where she fired a shot past Old Dominion's freshman keeper, Meredith Lenox, giving the Roadrunners an early 1-0 advantage.In the 32nd minute, Lady Monarch' freshman, Jackie Stroud finessed a shot just over the reach of UTSA's keeper, Emma Makela, only to have the ball hit off the Roadrunner's crossbar and fall back into the hands of Makela.Old Dominion stayed persistent on the offensive end and was rewarded in the 35th minute, as Alexis Thomas hustled down the field and picked off a lazy UTSA pass, which resulted in a wide open net and Thomas' first goal this season. The Lady Monarchs and the Roadrunners went into halftime with the score tied at one apiece.Eight minutes into the second half, UTSA's Kaytee O'Brien played a chip pass into a sprinting Happy Orere-Amadu, who was able to get behind the Lady Monarch's last line of defense and give the Roadrunners a 2-1 lead and victory.NEXT UPThe Lady Monarchs will return to the pitch on Sunday, October 13, when they will travel to and take on Florida Atlantic in another CUSA showdown.Be sure to keep up with all the latest news regarding ODU Women's Soccer on Facebook and follow @ODUWomensSoccer on Twitter!STATSSHOTS – ODU: 17 UTSA: 12CORNERS – ODU: 10 UTSA: 3SAVES – ODU (Lenox): 5 UTSA (Makela): 2

Fall is the best season. From college football to cooler weather to fun holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving, there isn't a better time of the year. Unless you're more into spring or summer or winter. Then there's a better time.
For the rest of us, that means we'll be outside enjoying the sunshine and the cool weather. We want our kids to enjoy the weather and activities just like we do. Among all these events, however, we need to remember to keep our preschool children safe.

The zodiacal light – or false dusk – is an eerie light extending up from the western horizon in late winter or early spring. You might also see it in the east before dawn begins to light the sky, in late summer or early autumn, in which case it's called the false dawn.
Maybe you've seen the zodiacal light in the sky and not realized it. Maybe you glimpsed it while driving on a highway or country road at this time of year. This strange light is a seasonal phenomenon. Springtime and autumn are best for seeing the zodiacal light. Suppose you're driving toward the west in springtime the hour after dusk. You catch sight of what you think is the lingering evening twilight, or the light of a nearby town, just over the horizon. Instead, what you're seeing is the zodiacal light. It looks like a hazy pyramid of light extending up from the western horizon, after evening twilight ends.
Springtime? Autumn? Is there a difference between Earth's two hemispheres?
How I can see the zodiacal light?
Springtime? Autumn? Is there a difference between Earth's two hemispheres? Yes and no. For both hemispheres, springtime is the best time to see the zodiacal light in the evening. Autumn is the best time to see it before dawn. Look for the zodiacal light in the east around the time of the autumn equinox. Look for it in the west after sunset around the time of the spring equinox.
But, of course, spring and autumn fall in different months for Earth's Northern and Southern Hemispheres. So if you're in the Northern Hemisphere look for the zodiacal light before dawn from about late August through early November. In those same months, if you're in the Southern Hemisphere, look for the light in the evening.
Likewise, if you're in the Northern Hemisphere, look for the evening zodiacal light from late February through early May. During those months, from the Southern Hemisphere, look for the light in the morning.
What is zodiacal light? People used to think zodiacal light originated somehow from phenomena in Earth's upper atmosphere, but today we understand it as sunlight reflecting off dust grains that circle the sun in the inner solar system. These grains are thought to be left over from the process that created our Earth and the other planets of our solar system 4.5 billion years ago.
These dust grains in space spread out from the sun in the same flat disc of space inhabited by Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars and the other planets in our sun's family. This flat space around the sun – the plane of our solar system – translates on our sky to a narrow pathway called the ecliptic. This is the same pathway traveled by the sun and moon as they journey across our sky.
The pathway of the sun and moon was called the Zodiac or Pathway of Animals by our ancestors in honor of the constellations seen beyond it. The word zodiacal stems from the word Zodiac.
In other words, the zodiacal light is a solar system phenomenon. The grains of dust that create it are like tiny worlds – ranging from meter-sized to micron-sized – densest around the immediate vicinity of the sun and extending outward beyond the orbit of Mars. Sunlight shines on these grains of dust to create the light we see. Since they lie in the flat sheet of space around the sun, we could, in theory, see them as a band of dust across our entire sky, marking the same path that the sun follows during the day. And indeed there are sky phenomena associated with this band of dust, such as the gegenschein. But seeing such elusive sky phenomena as the gegenschein is difficult. Most of us see only the more obvious part of this dust band – the zodiacal light – in either spring or fall.
How I can see the zodiacal light? The zodiacal light can be extremely bright and easy to see from latitudes like those in the southern U.S., sometimes leading to the above situation where drivers mistake the lights for a town just over the horizon.
Meanwhile, skywatchers in the northern U.S. or Canada sometimes say, wistfully, that they've never seen it.
You'll need a dark sky location to see the zodiacal light, someplace where city lights aren't obscuring the natural lights in the sky. The zodiacal light is even milkier in appearance than the summer Milky Way. It's most visible after dusk in spring because, as seen from the northern hemisphere, the ecliptic – or path of the sun and moon – stands nearly straight up in autumn with respect to the western horizon after dusk. Likewise, the zodiacal light is easiest to see before dawn in autumn, because then the ecliptic is most perpendicular to the eastern horizon in the morning.
In spring, the zodiacal light can be seen for up to an hour after dusk ends. Or, in autumn, it can be seen for up to an hour before dawn. Unlike true dusk, though, there's no rosy color to the zodiacal light. The reddish skies at dawn and dusk are caused by Earth's atmosphere, while the zodiacal light originates far outside our atmosphere, as explained above.
Look for the zodiacal light in the west after sunset in late winter and early spring, around the time of the spring equinox. Look for it in the east before sunrise in late summer and early autumn, around the time of the autumn equinox. The darker your sky, the better your chances of seeing it. Your best bet is to pick a night when the moon is out of the sky, although it's definitely possible, and very lovely, to see a slim crescent moon in the midst of this strange milky pyramid of light.

Performing a comprehensive solar site analysis is the first step toward ensuring a well-performing solar-electric system. New tools and technologies are available for evaluating a site's solar potential. But while these tools can bring us powerful information at the touch of a button, nothing can take the place of conducting a thorough assessment of the proposed array location.
As a PV array's orientation (azimuth, the direction it faces) or tilt varies from "optimal," potential energy harvest decreases. The optimal combination of array tilt and azimuth will depend on a few variables, including geographical location, seasonal weather patterns and system application. Azimuth and tilt are both required data for system design and energy estimating programs such as the PV Watts calculator (see Access).
A PV array's orientation is often referenced to true south. A compass doesn't always point to true south, so magnetic declination, the angle variation between magnetic north/south and true north/south, must be taken into account, since it varies by location. There are various resources available to determine magnetic declination for most locations around the globe (see Access). With the use of a compass and local magnetic declination, a roof's orientation is simple to determine (see "Methods" in this issue). Since most buildings are not constructed with solar in mind, roofs that face true south are uncommon. Fortunately, most PV arrays within the continental United States oriented within 30° of true south still offer excellent potential energy harvest, often within just a few percent of the maximum.
Due to wind-loading and aesthetic concerns, most rooftop arrays are mounted parallel to the roof plane—so the roof's pitch determines the array tilt. For grid-tied systems here in the United States, "optimal" roof angles—which maximize an array's production—range between 25° and 35°. The roof pitch can be measured with an inexpensive inclinometer or a smartphone, which uses an app that takes advantage of the phone's internal sensors to measure angles.
As roof pitch decreases, the roof's orientation to true south becomes less influential on a grid-tied system's performance. At a steeper tilt, the array will capture less energy during early mornings and late afternoons due to the sun's oblique angle. As the array's tilt approaches 0° (horizontal), the array is able to capture more of the early morning and late afternoon sun, which can increase overall energy production (see the "Orientation & Tilt Reference" table that shows the effects of decreasing the tilt angle with respect to azimuth). Since the goal for most grid-tied PV systems is to maximize the annual energy yield, winter production can often be "sacrificed" to maximize production in the summer, when the available peak sun-hours increase.
With your preferred solar design tool, such as Solmetric's Annual Insolation Tool, you can create a chart for quickly evaluating potential energy production as it varies with array tilt and orientation (see "Free Tools for Estimating PV Output" in HP147). The results will reveal the ideal array orientation and tilt for an unshaded array in that particular location. This chart can be used to compare different mounting scenarios, such as multiple roof planes, as well as pole- or ground-mount options (for more information, see "Methods" in HP155).
To use Solmetric's online tool, select your state from a drop-down menu and then select the location that best matches your local weather patterns. In our example, Grand Junction, Colorado, has very similar weather to the site's location. Selecting the location generates an "annual insolation" graph that can be customized with specific orientation and tilt angles. To interpret the chart, find your tilt angle or roof pitch along the vertical axis and then match that up to the azimuth along the horizontal axis. This will lead to an intersecting point in the graph with a color designation that reveals a percentage value as compared to the ideal conditions, which are listed at the top of the legend area. The annual insolation value can be used to quantify the impacts of various tilt and azimuth angles. The scale along the right provides color-coordinated values expressed as a percentage of the ideal conditions and the associated insolation value in kilowatt-hours per square meter.

Franklin Street Public School
Franklin Street Public School
Education in early Canada followed the British model of elementary schools that operated privately. They were attended only by those who could afford the fees. The Common Schools Act of 1816 permitted local residents to build a school, provided they had a minimum of 20 pupils, and elect trustees to hire a teacher and manage the school. The government agreed to contribute to the teacher's salary.
In the 1840s, the school system was reshaped by a series of school acts, beginning with the Common School Act of 1841. This Act doubled the size of government grants and introduced compulsory property taxes as a means of funding elementary schools. In 1846-1847, the Village of Markham built a frame schoolhouse at or near the site of Franklin Street Public School.
Elementary school fees were eliminated across Ontario in 1871 and resulted in the removal of another barrier to accessible education. However, secondary school fees were not dropped until half a century later.
In 1891, school attendance for children between the ages of eight and 14 became mandatory. (The mandatory age was extended to 16 in 1919.)
After the frame schoolhouse was severely damaged by a fire in 1886, it was replaced by a four room brick building that was named Markham Village Public School. Today, this structure is the west wing of the current school at 12 Franklin Street.
On February 28, 1906, the brick school was gutted by yet another fire. Students were temporarily accommodated in short-term facilities in the Town Hall, the Orange Lodge and Grace Anglican Church.
The building was enlarged in 1951 to accommodate a growing student population. The name was changed from Markham Village Public School to Franklin Street Public School in the 1960s when schools were being named for their street location.

An Australian retail industry body says the retail sector is waiting for the big banks to cut interest rates, passing on additional cuts to reflect lower borrowing costs.
Australian Retailers Association director Russell Zimmerman said the savings should be passed on before the Reserve Bank meets in February to make its first decision on interest rates for 2013, AAP reports.
Mr Zimmerman said compared to equivalent performing economies in Canada, New Zealand and Norway, which have cut interest rates to 1%, 2.5% and 1.5% respectively, Australia was lagging with an official rate of 3%.
"Since the start of the GFC (global financial crisis) Australia's banks have not passed on full interest rate cuts because of internationally high borrowing costs, with clear evidence these costs are lowering, consumer and business borrowing interest rates must be lowered," Mr Zimmerman said in a statement on Sunday.
He said poor retail sales figures for November 2012 indicated a stalling economy, and it was critical both the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) and banks play their role in stimulating the economy.
"While Christmas sales initially appear to have been a little better than the previous year we know some categories were down and sales growth was still well below historic levels," Mr Zimmerman said.
"Australia is facing significant economic headwinds and the need for serious economic reform from whoever wins this year's federal election, in the meantime the big banks and RBA need to play their role in supporting the economy."

Testimonies: Liver Cancer
"In September 2013, Tonie was diagnosed with terminal cancer that spread from her breast into the lungs and liver. She became so ill that it tired her out to do the smallest task; to walk across a room would take great effort and all her breath away. Tonie was in an Oroville CA service, March 09, 2014, where Dan Prout and several members of the Sierra Ministries Healing Team were ministering. She felt the Lord was healing her during the worship service when prayer for healing was offered. Tonie received ministry in one of our small groups, after which she reported she could take full breaths, was not experiencing any pain and felt the good cells in her body taking over. Three days later her husband, Donnie, reported there were no signs of her having any trouble breathing or problems with physical tasks; Praise God! As of April 19, 2014, Tonie continues to be able to breathe fully and deeply. After reviewing a recent scan, her doctor reportedly says her liver is cancer free. She continues to have a small amount of cancer in both right breast and right lung. The doctor is amazed at the effectiveness of the chemotherapy he has been administering. Tonie and her husband believe the major changes in her body are on account of God's work. Of course we do not deny the important role of medical science. (Tonie's story is an ideal example of how healing miracles often have apparent medical explanations.) We look forward to her complete healing by the power of the Cross and in the authority of Jesus' name."
- Tonie on March 9th, 2014
"Before Healing Rooms opened one Wednesday morning I asked the team to pray for my sister-in-law, Joyce, who was anxious about the Specialist's report after having a scan on her liver. As the team prayed the Lord revealed some numbers for Joyce. We considered their significance: 7 - complete, 5 - grace, 12 - divine government. Little did the team know, (but the Lord did) that Joyce was turning 75 this year, 2012. We were all at peace knowing that Joyce was going to get a good report and it turns out that, although she still has some fluid around her liver after having an earlier operation for liver cancer removal (which wasn't there!), the specialist has given her a good report, with a checkup in 6 months. It's really wonderful and comforting to have a place such as Nowra Healing Rooms to go to for healing prayer support and Jesus' unconditional love. Thank you,Sylvia and Joyce"
- Joyce on July 9th, 2012
"I came in for prayer for healing in my liver from spots reported by my physician, I had tremendous fear. I received prayer, when I went back to the doctor for my check up I was able to have peace, and the doctor gave a good report. Thank you Lord."
- Sandra C. on December 21st, 2011
"Seattle Healing Rooms reports: Some months ago, a Japanese lady came in with her Christian friend. (One of our leadership team is a Japanese pastor, so she can provide prayer in Japanese if needed). She had been diagnosed with liver cancer and told that she would die in three months if she could not get a transplant. She decided she would just die. Her believing friend had other ideas and brought her into our healing rooms. She received prayer and spent a lot of time soaking in the worship music after prayer. She started attending Bible Study. When she went in for her chemo treatment they informed her that they couldn't treat her as they couldn't find any trace of the cancer. They called it a miracle and sent her home! Hallelujah!"
- Unknown U. on January 17th, 2011
"MASS NON-MALIGNANT... A mass was found on my liver and spleen. After several weeks of prayer at the Oxnard, Ventura and Camarillo Healing Rooms I went for a CT scan. The mass was found to be non-malignant. All the glory is to God the Father, His son Jesus Christ and our blessed Holy Spirit. I am expecting Him to dissolve the remaining uninvited residue. The life I now live I live through Christ Jesus my Savior! Praise Him forevermore!"
- Ralph R. on June 24th, 2010
"In March 2001 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Following the mastectomy an MRI Scan revealed "multiple secondaries in the liver." The surgeon was disappointed, but God gave me great peace with Phil. 4:6. My family and close friends prayed. As a further check I was asked to return for an Ultrasound. Here, the technician finally said "I can find nothing of any significance!" Another MRI Scan was ordered. This confirmed that all was clear. I have had no more complications in over 8 years since then. Thank You Jesus."
- Marion D. on December 7th, 2009
"Seven days ago I was in intensive care with a tumor on my liver. After treatment my liver died due to the medication. The doctors gave me no hope. My son contacted Healing Rooms of Hammond and after they prayed over the phone. My liver came back to life with no sign of tumor."
- Gene A. on August 12th, 2008
"I was diagnosed with cancer in both lungs, the lining of my heart, my liver and pelvic bone. After one Chemo treatment the side effects could not be tolerated so treatment was discontinued. Around this time I was introduced to the Healing Rooms by a friend. My husband is a Doctor and has every other weekend off. He would drive me to the Healing Rooms in Valparaiso, Indiana on his Saturday off. It seems so peaceful, so stess free, so invigorating and slowly I could feel my strength coming back. The Doctors had given me 6 months to live. My latest diagnostic tests showed complete remission of the disease and I am symptom free. I can even do what I love most, Ballroom Dancing. "
- Marietta C. on March 17th, 2008
"I've been fighting breast cancer since 1999. After many medical regiments,in 2005 the cancer was found to have spread to my skull, my liver, my spine, and my lungs. I started going to Healing Rooms in Hammond in November 2005. These wonderful people prayed for me, encouraged me, and stood with me in faith even when it seemed hopeless. Recently we got a good report, only after another three treatments the cancer test showed only trace amounts in my right lung and my spine. The doctor said that the cancer was dying and that the results I was getting was not the normal. I told him that I accepted this as my miracle from God. I Praise God for my healing. All the pain is gone, I no loger need oxygen to breath and I am gaining my strength daily. I am sure that the next test scheduled in three months will show all signs of cancer gone. My God is an awesome God."

When animals compete for the same prey, the victory usually goes to the strongest. While man may be the top predator on Earth, Chatham fishermen are finding out that status doesn't carry much credibility when it comes to ducks.
CHATHAM — When animals compete for the same prey, the victory usually goes to the strongest. While man may be the top predator on Earth, Chatham fishermen are finding out that status doesn't carry much credibility when it comes to ducks.
Two years ago, shellfishermen were counting on a strong set of mussel seeds that had taken hold in Chatham Harbor. They only had to wait a few months until the mussels grew to legal size, but then, tens of thousands of eiders and other sea ducks swept in and wiped them out, said Chatham Shellfish Constable Renee Gagne.
"It's a nice winter fishery for these guys," Gagne said. Last year, the town's shellfish advisory committee brought a proposal before selectmen to use an air cannon to scare ducks off the mussel beds within the harbor. They conducted a test with the cannon but by the time selectmen were set to review the results, the birds were gone, and so were the mussels.
Next month, the shellfish committee will once again consider whether to use similar methods to drive birds away from the harbor's mussel beds and save them for fishermen. This Saturday at the Chatham Community Center, Samantha Richman, a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Rhode Island, will present her findings on nonlethal ways to exclude sea ducks from mussel farms.
Richman already spoke to the shellfish advisory committee last year and the Mass Audubon's Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary sponsored a return visit as part of its effort to find ways to accommodate the needs of birds and fishermen. The sanctuary is looking for volunteers to count sea ducks and note locations where eiders are feeding. Last summer they mapped the locations of mussel beds and noted where other mussel predators, such as oystercatchers and red knots, were feeding.
"We want to get a better understanding and work on solutions over the summer," sanctuary director Bob Prescott said, "We're hoping to get some answers for them and offer some guidance."
Mussels are becoming an increasingly important shellfish product in the U.S., especially when grown on large aquaculture farms, said Scott Lindell, director of the Scientific Aquaculture Program at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole. But the majority of the mussels people eat come from Canada and other countries with more than $90 million imported in 2011 compared with less than $4 million grown in the Northeast, according to the National Marine Fisheries Service.
Gagne said the shellfish committee is only considering protecting a relatively small portion of the mussels available to the birds, which are stopping over on their migratory routes to winter feeding grounds in southern U.S. waters. According to a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service survey, 15,000 to 20,000 birds, mostly eiders, are presently off Monomoy feeding on mussels there, Richman said Thursday.
"Bangers, cannons, things like that have a very short-term success," said Richman, who specializes on the energy requirements to capture food, thermoregulation and diving techniques in seabirds.
As part of her research, she investigated ways to protect the large mussel farms in Canada from sea duck predation.
Her recommendations to mussel farmers include remaining active around their sea farm, as sea ducks don't like being near humans; sinking marker buoys that could signal to birds overhead that a farm is below; and alternating protective measures as ducks get accustomed to them.

Perhaps not this summer
... thats alright, it's a winter sport so you have a few months to get ready .
The runs take more out of me ten fold than the riding ... on Sundays race I exploded completely on the last 25 meter uphill run!.
Hopefully tomorrow I won't have that issue... in theory there should be 2 ditch jumps, one I may try to jump, the other will be a run. If I don't jump the first then it is quicker to run between the two... now that would suck!.

Thank to the Little League mercy rule, the United States was spared nine full innings against a country that we literally own, but cannot beat in baseball. Just wait until Tommy Lasorda hears about this.
Thankfully, Puerto Rico will never be granted statehood or independence, so technically the United States beat itself by 10 runs in the World Baseball Classic further solidifying the mainland's awesomeness. U.S.A.! (and its territories!) U.S.A.! (and its territories!)
On the other hand, both teams are stacked with Major League talent and if Jake Peavy loses to Javier Vazquez sometime in July or August, no one will bat an eye, proving again that the whole thing is lark that should not be taken seriously. Unless you lose to the Netherlands. That would be so humiliating for the country that took another country's sport and modified the rules slightly to suit its own peculiar tastes. I don't even know who we are anymore.

Do blowout victories lead to big nights for a team's bench or does a big night for a team's bench lead to blowout victories?
Yes. And vice versa.
Something like that, anyway, after the team with arguably the NBA's best unit of reserves took on and handily beat the team that used to arguably have the best backups.
The Los Angeles Clippers have been getting great production from their bench, led by veteran addition Jamal Crawford. Crawford (at 20.7 ppg) isn't just the Clippers' leading scorer so far this season, he ranks ninth overall in the NBA. He's the only one of the top 26 on that list who is averaging fewer than 30 minutes nightly – in fact, Crawford hasn't started a single game.
The 13-year veteran is off to his best start ever – he's averaging 26.5 points per 36 minutes, 5.6 points more than his previous best. Crawford scored 22 minutes in 27:22 Saturday, and he had plenty of help from benchmates Matt Barnes (13) and Eric Bledsoe (10) in L.A.'s 101-80 victory over Chicago.
Ahem, yes, that Chicago. One of the Bulls' distinctive advantages the past two seasons was a second unit unrivaled in the NBA for total impact at both ends of the floor. While guys such as Kyle Korver and C.J. Watson gave their club reliable scoring weapons, defenders such as Omer Asik, Ronnie Brewer and Taj Gibson made coach Tom Thibodeau smile at the havoc they wreaked on the other clubs' best-laid plays.
Except that now, only Gibson remains from the guts of that "bench mob." Gibson's production has been down so far, possibly affected by contract-extension uncertainty that wasn't resolved until the Halloween deadline. Jimmy Butler hasn't made the second-year step as a shooter that was supposed to make Brewer expendable. The others were shed in Bulls management's adherence to fiscal responsibility, i.e., minimizing luxury-tax liability.
So the Bulls swapped out valuable parts as if they were interchangeable cogs, and the helpful contributions in reserve now are supposed to come from Marco Belinelli, Nate Robinson, Nazr Mohammed, Vladimir Radmanovic and Marquis Teague.
Only they're not. Catch a glimpse of the gamebook from this one: Through three quarters at Staples Center, the Clippers had a 17-point lead but a 42-8 bench scoring edge. The Bulls' backups, in a total of about 33 minutes, were a frosty 2-of-12. They were part of the problem defensively in the Clips' 35-point second quarter, too.
A team that has no margin for error, with its superstar point guard still out indefinitely, lately has been getting next-to-nothing – nothing reliable, anyway – from its used-to-be strength.
As ESPNChicago.com's Nick Friedell reported in his West Coast dispatch:
Aside from Derrick Rose's absence, the Bulls' single biggest issue is the fact that their new Bench Mob isn't playing nearly as well as their old one did.
"Our second unit comes in, we always try and take advantage," Crawford said. "We feel like we're among the best second units in the league and every night we get an opportunity to prove it. So we want to support our starters and once we get everybody together we feel like we'll be among the best teams in the league."
That's exactly what Taj Gibson and his old Bench Mob teammates used to say after games. They would always find a way to extend a lead or keep it at bay until the starters returned. That's not the case anymore. Thibodeau struggles to find consistency from his new group on a night to night basis. When they play higher quality opponents and the starters don't bring the right intensity — the Bulls are in trouble.
Crawford, at 32, might not be able to maintain his current pace. Then again, the Clippers have Grant Hill and Chauncey Billups potentially in reserve for their reserves, so there is cavalry for the cavalry. The Bulls used to have that kind of deep depth, but right now all they have is Radmanovic playing the Brian Scalabrine role, and of course less lovably.
