I'm not sure that this is the right place to write this post on but it seemed more appropriate than the GenABEL forum:
I'm trying to select samples which will be sequenced whole genome to create my own reference set instead of HapMap or 1000G.
Since I have some isolated population my idea is to choose the best set based on kinship so that the imputations can be more acurate and I loose as less power as possible for association.
I've found out that minimac hides each marker and then compares the imputed marker with the original one. There is an output with three different measures of accuracy, the first is the canonical Rsq as in MACH called looRSQ , the second is empR which on the wiki is defined as: the empirical correlation between true and imputed genotypes for the SNP. If this is negative, the SNP is probably flipped.
The third is empRSQ defined as : the actual R2 value, comparing imputed and true genotypes.
From what I understand I should look at the third one in order to asses acuracy, however I'm not sure and I could not find any litterature on it.
Am I interpreting this correctly or should I try somthing different?

Re: Best reference set
From reading your post - note I have no experience with minimac - I would agree that the last measure is probably the best (but it should also correlate almost perfectly with the first). And also #3 should be the same as the #2 - squared. I wonder if this is correct
Note that (Gen)ABELs are dynamically developing; while this post is intended to provide full information at the time of posting, please read on further posts, if any, as the topic may be updated with novel solutions at a later stage.

Artist Janet Hopkins-Campbell, a native of New Martinsville, has a new accomplishment to add to her professional resume.
Her book, "Love Enough to Last a Lifetime," has just been published by Mascot Books in Herndon, Va., and is available for purchase.
Her book is the story of Baby Maggie, who is assigned by God to come to Earth to be with a formerly childless couple.
Article Photos
Can she overcome her nervousness and do what the Heavenly Father wants her to do? And what exactly is her mission?
It was a tragedy in Campbell's family that led to the book. A family member of the author lost a baby to her birth mother after a failed adoption attempt. The ensuing court battle lasted several months, during which time family members bonded with the baby.
"It was never my intention to write a book about it," Campbell said. "One day, about six months later, I was grieving the loss of the child and the story came to me, and I knew that this was something God wanted me to write. I scribbled the entire manuscript in one afternoon.
Even though I painted the illustrations soon afterward, the story sat on a shelf for a few years, during which time I illustrated a book for another author, Carol Craven Bates' "Two Little Boys - Ten Big Plagues."
The publication of the Bates' book prompted Campbell to seek a publisher for her own book.
"After writing the manuscript, it was always the intent of our family to get Maggie's story out to the public, so that her loss would not be in vain."
"I am not unfamiliar with the loss of a child myself, having suffered three miscarriages and the loss of my son's twin, who did not survive the pregnancy. In addition, my mother lost three children-one through miscarriage, one a still birth, and a baby who lived only six weeks.
"It is my hope that Maggie's story will bring some sense of comfort to families dealing with the loss of a child, no matter the age or the circumstance," said Campbell, who moved from New Martinsville to Tennessee 15 years ago.
Bill McDonald, a grief and loss educator in central Tennessee, said, "I am confident that Jan's book will help families going through the grief process due to the loss of a child."
Campbell's book may be purchased online at amazon.com or mascotbooks. com.
An autographed copy of the book may be obtained by writing Campbell at her address: 1115 Maddox Road, Centerville, TN 37033.

CUH Update – December 2010: Overcoming November's Cold Spell
Several weeks after an unusual early snow and cold snap, the grounds at CUH have looked like a bomb was detonated and we're just now cleaning up the aftermath. OK, it wasn't that bad, but the clean-up continues as the holiday season is well underway and we're doing our best to keep things clean and presentable to our many guest this time of year.
Having the snow was actually quite a sight as it emphasizes the strength of the structure, or so called "bones" of a landscape, so beautifully.
Here you can see some of the changes made to the Fragrance Garden this past year as we thinned out a few plants and transplanted several specimens to allow more room for certain species to really thrive.
Always the stand-out in every season is our stunning Nolina from Mexico. Dusted in pure white powder, it withstands the cold and remains such an iconic plant in a garden that will undergo a slight facelift as we reconfigure some of the plantings and add some for floral interests come spring.
Even the effective composition of an evergreen container is emphasized by winter's snow. During the growing season, this Osmanthus heterophyllus, flanked by a prostrate Podocarpus, Heuchera 'Purple Petticoats' and a maidenhair fern. In the shade for the majority of the day, it isn't all that exciting. But as the snow arrives, it instantly becomes a sight to behold.
The same could be said of this fairly new selection of Helleborus argutifolius called 'Silver Lace'. It's been a plant that not many people really take note of unless it's paired with a contrasting color or texture in the garden, but the added snow creates a most unusual and beautiful effect.
With so much clean up, cutting back and dead-heading to do in the fall, you just can't quite get to everything, but once the weather doesn't cooperate to allow you to finish your work, the resulting image in the landscape can be quite enchanting. This Jerusalem Sage was never cut back after blooming, but capped in a light dusting of snow, it is truly elegant.
"Overcooked spinach" is what one visitor said to describe the mess a cold spell can bring. A task that I meant to do a few weeks back suddenly rises up on the priority to-do list.
For the third year in a row, our poor Daphne bholua has, once again, suffered from an early frost and cold damage. This species typically begins blooming around Christmas time for us, but the past few winters have been so unforgiving, we just pray that it recovers and is allowed to branch out and flower again next year.
A relative of the Daphne is the beloved Chinese Paper Bush or Edgeworthia. Each winter, since it was planted, the cold seems to damage the buds as they form so very few flowers are produced. Ideally, the plant would have formed its buds over the summer and into autumn, the foliage yellows and drops and by then, the plant is prepared for the onset of cold temperatures and the buds continue to develop and flower beginning in early February or so. The problem has been: the foliage never fully yellows so the plant isn't allowed to go into a proper dormancy before the cold sets in; therefore, the buds are further damaged. Seeing these fuzzy undeveloped buds that still look plump and firm gives us hope that they'll mature properly, but the fact that it isn't even officially winter yet worries me.
There's a lot to see and observe at CUH right now, but one of the highlights is a exciting brand new plant (you didn't think I'd end this report on a sad note, did you?) we've acquired as a container specimen for Merrill Hall Commons. Though being advertised as hardy and suited for our mild Seattle climate, this relative of a fairly common houseplant has been the talk of plant aficionados around as the grower who was introducing it accidentally "leaked" a few specimens to local nurseries and we managed to secure one prior to its wide distribution. This is the stunning and elegant Taiwanese Umbrella Tree botanically known as Schefflera taiwaniana.
Like any new and exciting plant we acquire for our collections, I like to think of each one as a gift to the public: our visitors who come near and far to enjoy the surroundings and admire the work we do here at CUH.
I want to dedicate this Schefflera to you all and hope you have a chance to see it here or acquire it for your own garden in the near future.
On behalf of UWBG and the entire grounds staff here at CUH, I want to wish you all a warm and happy holidays and an exciting new year!

Program Description
The Associate in Science Transfer (AS-T) degree is designed to prepare students for entrance into a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor of Science (B.S.) program in Physics. The primary focus of the AS-T degree is completion of the necessary math and science requirements for junior standing at Washington state baccalaureate institutions. Students will be required to take additional general education courses after transfer to fulfill university requirements. Physics is also an excellent major for graduate studies in Astronomy, Atmospheric Sciences, Applied Math, Education, Environmental Studies, Medicine, Law and Physics.
Physics — What is it?
Physics is the study of all matter and energy and the laws that govern them. From sub-atomic particles to the stars and galaxies, Physics is the foundation of all natural sciences. Through the observation of such things as motion, light, electricity, gravity and speed, physicists use the scientific method to test theories and write conclusions often expressed in mathematical equations.
Areas of study in Physics:
Astronomy, Acoustical Physics, Optics and Waves, Quantum and Atomic Physics, Electricity and Magnetism, Fluid and Plasma, Thermodynamics, Astrophysics, Biophysics, Geophysics, Health Physics, Medical Physics, and Nuclear Physics.
Career Opportunities — What can I do with a Bachelor's Degree in Physics?
Graduates in Physics develop strong observation, critical thinking, problem solving,
computational and technical skills to work in a variety of careers fields, such as:
astronomy, health care, research and development, education, consulting, engineering
design, quality control, operations and management.
Potential employers include:
Research and Development Firms, Engineering and Manufacturing Firms, Atomic and Nuclear Labs, Government Agencies—Department of Energy and Defense, Hospitals, Medical Schools, Colleges and Universities, Observatories, Planetariums, Science Museums, Environmental Agencies and Weather Bureaus. For more, please visit Career Counseling .
Transfer Possibilities — Where can I transfer?
The AS-T makes it possible for students to transfer to a number of public and private colleges and universities in the U.S. with junior standing. An Associate Degree from Shoreline makes it possible for students to transfer to public and private colleges and universities throughout the U.S. with junior standing. Shoreline also has agreements with several universities to make transferring even easier. For transfer within Washington State, we offer a special degree called the AA-DTA. For international students, Shoreline also has conditional admission agreements that allow a student to be simultaneously accepted by Shoreline and a university of the student's choosing.

Cadicamo Competes in 5,000-meter Run
GREENSOBORO, N.C. – On the final day of NCAA Regional Championships, sophomore Anne Lovelace qualified for nationals in a close race in the 3,000-meter steeplechase. Senior Alexandra Cadicamo also competed in the 5,000-meter run.
Lovelace placed third in her heat to notch the last qualifying spot, edging Duke's Emily Schwitzer by only two-hundredeths of a second. Her time of 10:32.92 placed her 13th overall. The steeplechase was originally scheduled for Friday night but was postponed to Saturday due to inclement weather.
In the 5,000-meter run, Cadicamo clocked in 16.41.48 to come in 20th place overall.
Lovelace and senior Kate Grace will compete for the Bulldogs at the NCAA National Championships on June 9-12. The track and field committee will post the list of national qualifiers by May 30 at ncaa.com.

- What I Love About My Small Home:
- I love the warm, inviting feeling when I walk through the front door. Although it is a basement flat, it still feels bright, open and airy.
Most of the time it is dreary outside, but my place feels like a perfect cosy London flat. My favourite thing is to snuggle on the couch and look out at the garden, or when we get a rare bit of sunshine, open the doors and enjoy the sunlight and warm breeze.
- Biggest Challenge of Living in a Small Space:
- I share my home with my husband, our two dogs and two cats, so the biggest challenge was creating a harmonious space where all the inhabitants can co-exist happily. Because it is a lower-ground flat we are really fortunate to have the most charming little garden, which acts as an extra room (especially for the furry family members!).
My husband works from home, so another challenge was making sure he had a workspace. I had to forgo my dreams of a dining table, and instead we eat most of our meals in the kitchen. When friends come round we pull out a table that we keep stored under our couch.

shouldn't the 'gigs' tab be removed from the home-page?
As far as I can tell it has no functionality and just leads to a 404. Also I imagine this section would be a ballache to actually keep on top of, and people probably wouldn't come to DiS with the intention of looking at gig listings anywho, available as they are, elsewhere.
it will be. we don't currently have a full-time developer (and haven't had one for about 20months now).
we've employed a company to build our new site.
it'll be up mid-october, with a bit of luck.

No, whynotme. Its your possibility, you can help out your self and solve it simply by your self.It is my problem, eveyone can help, but only me can solve it.
It reminds me on Ajhan Chahs saying: "The only worthy book to read is the heart" So there are times we need to throw away the books and all other intelectual things and simply prove it for our selfs without support of others.
Its a little like trational forest monks. After a while of formal teachings, they are used to be send into to the forset (field, world...). No way out and just a minimum to get confused to be able to see it by one self.
Literary studies are somehow only the dessert after the nurishing meal. We need to be careful that our belly is not overfilled with the dessert or we are so attached to is pleasure (what come along wich intelectuall playing and study) that we even refuse what is actually staple food. How every keep the meal balanced, even the dessert is fine it would make you fat and immovable sooner or later.
How can one look, observe his mind when it is full of thought and busy with intelectuall knowledge? No way.

A BlankTV Feature Presentation:
Betraeus - "Towards The Sun"
Betraeus' "Towards the Sun" video was filmed in an underground garage in the heart of Manchester, England, helmed by renowned director and producer, Tom Bohan (Xerath, The Hollow Earth Theory).
The video showcases the band's superb technical playing ability and song-writing skills. The track is about creators of life in a parallel existence returning to Earth and being disgusted by what they see. These creators try to reason with the humans who they feel are infesting their creation, but to no avail, causing them to destroy what they created in sheer anger.

text: Okay ever since we got our routine down (baby and I) after birth we've had our fare share of issues but up to this point I've been fortunate enough to work through them alone. This time is different... I have a very forceful letdown that always occurs 5-15 seconds after latch on. It has never failed me. After many growth spurts I assumed I was ready for this one. He just turned 4 months today and at three months my breasts regulated and got to their 'normal' (for breastfeeding) state. My supply is fine but we are just now adjusting to eating about every 4 hrs instead of every 2-3 hrs and now that my breasts are adjusted to every 4 hrs (with 8-9 hr break at night) this growth sputlrt has thrown them for a loop and my let down literally will not happen unless it's been at least 3 hrs since the last feeding. He finishes both breasts and is happily satisfied when he is actually hungry but when he wants to go at it again 2 hrs later it won't happen!! Is this normal?! He isn't hungry he just wants them so this isn't a huge issue (I hope) I'm just so used to my breasts being responsive and now it's like they have a mind of their own. /:

Todd Snitchler will step down as chairman of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio when his term ends in April, the agency announced.
Todd Snitchler will end his tenure as Public Utilities Commission of Ohio chairman when the term ends in April, the agency announced Tuesday.
Ending several weeks of speculation, Snitchler said he has decided not to apply for a full five-year term on the commission. His term expires April 10.
Snitchler, a Stark County Republican, offered no details about his future plans or whether he intended to remain involved with state or local politics.
"I have invested more than five years in public service, three of which were at the helm of the Commission, but I believe now is the time to move ahead into my next role," Snitchler said in the statement issued by the PUCO.
Snitchler declined to comment further. In a Columbus Dispatch story, he said it was time for him to get back to the private sector and let someone else serve.
The PUCO's nominating council announced at the end of December that it was accepting applications for the commissioner's job. Deadline for applying is 5 p.m. Thursday.
Speculation about Snitchler's future began when he declined to say if he would seek another term as chairman.
Shortly after he took office in 2011, Gov. John R. Kasich appointed Snitchler — then a member of the Ohio House — as PUCO chairman. Snitchler replaced Alan Schriber, who resigned in the midst of his third term as chairman.
Snitchler was elected to Ohio's 50th House District in 2008 and re-elected in 2010. Snitchler was beginning his second term when he applied for the PUCO seat. Kasich picked him from among four finalists recommended by the PUCO nominating council.
In a statement issued by PUCO, Snitchler said he was grateful for the chance to serve as the agency's director and thanked Kasich for the opportunity.
In a separate statement, Kasich called Snitchler an effective PUCO leader and "a fierce defender of the PUCO's independence."
Kasich said he valued those qualities and preferred that Snitchler seek reappointment as chairman, "but I respect his decision and wish him and his family well in the next chapter of their lives."
As chairman, Snitchler leads the 320-person agency that oversees the regulation of electric, natural gas, telecommunications, water and commercial transportation in Ohio. He also is chairman of the Ohio Power Siting Board that reviews, evaluates and approves locations for electric generation plants, as well as electric and natural gas transmission lines.

It was a battle all night as Wofford took the first game, 30-26. The Lady Bucs fought back to win game two by a 30-26 tally, before narrowly dropping game three, 30-28. ETSU then proved they were out to win, hammering the Terriers, 30-11 in the fourth frame.
"We just didn't give up," said head coach Lindsey Devine following the win. "In game four, we made it evident we were going to make a statement in our gym, in front of our crowd. We got challenged in game five and just pushed back and never gave up."
With the score standing at 14-13 in game five, and a Terrier win just one point away, sophomore Callie Kiselich (Colorado Spings,
"Sara is a blocking machine and has the potential to change a game," said Devine of the senior. "She swung well, and was a great force for us all night."
Scandiffio belted 16 kills on the game, along with four block assists and four block solos. The Lady Bucs had four players in double figures in the kill column, with Kiselich and Sara Buhr (
"Jennifer Emerson stepped up huge," said Devine of her junior setter. "She ran a great offense and did the work on both offense and defense. She really just kept elevating our play."
Both Angela Berry and Brittany Thompson contributed 14 kills to the Wofford offense as Terrier setter Rhea DeJesus dished out 41 assists.
The Lady Bucs hit another early season invitational this weekend, as the travel to Davidson for the Mizuno Wildcat Tournament. ETSU's opening match against host Davidson is slated for Friday, Sept. 9, at 7 p.m. in

University of Illinois Considers Firing Professor
University of Illinois trustees are expected later this month to consider the rare step of stripping a professor of tenure and firing him.
University President Bob Easter has recommended that associate engineering professor Louis Wozniak loose his tenure.
According to the News-Gazette in Champaign, administrators claim the longtime professor revealed one student's grade, videotaped students without consent and told students in an email to remind him of their names because he only remembers those he has sex with.
Wozniak later apologized for a joke he said was in bad taste. He says he'd like to teach again.
He started at the university in 1966 but has been barred from teaching since 2010.
The last tenure case heard by trustees is believed to have been in the 1960s.

Okhlos is a game about an angry mob in ancient Greece. You will have to travel all around Greece and conform a very large group of angry people to fight armies, mythological creatures and even the gods themselves! Each stage will have its unique challenges based around the gods they worshipped there. You will have lots of fighting in Sparta, lots of thinking to do in Athens, and lots of partying when facing Dionysius. You get the idea. Also, each unit will have its unique set of skills, making the mob unique each time you play. There will be heroes, warriors, philosophers, slaves, and much more!
I am in LOVE with the 2.5 D pixel graphics with realistic shading, like DAMN THAT'S FINE.

By SUE MANNING, Associated Press Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Pit bulls and parolees. Tia Maria Torres has opened her heart and home to the unwanted.
On 17 acres in the rugged terrain of Canyon Country, Torres provides a place to live or work for six parolees, 225 pit bulls, 204 volunteers, two French bulldogs, 19 cats, a husband and four kids.
Torres, 49, started Villalobos Rescue Center - the largest pit bull rescue in the United States - 14 years ago. She added ex-cons three years ago with prison pen pal and tattoo artist Aren Marcus Jackson, who would become her second husband.
But the rescue's been a money pit requiring creative financing. She tried to open a brothel to pay the bills, but it burned down. So now she's turning to reality TV - Animal Planet's "Pit Bulls and Parolees," which airs next month - to help cover the $20,000 in monthly bills (including a ton of dog food a week) and an ever-growing $25,000 vet tab.
If it had worked out otherwise, she jokes the show would have been called "Pit Bulls, Parolees and Prostitutes."
Read Moar[sic]
That would have been a great title for a show if she did open a brothel, but my goodness, at over 200 pitbulls you know she's dedicated. This, in my opinion, is a great way to not only help the dogs, but also rehab some of the felons and criminals in the system, so that maybe they don't go back and saves cash for it in the long haul. They need more. Much much more.
I'm not saying every criminal should be paired with a pit (good god no) but those who are (and make up a huge part of) in prison/jail for marijuana use would probably be a good group to spring out since its a waste of cash to hold a pothead in a cell with hardened criminals and such. My opinions on drugs/law/rehab aside, I think it is wonderful for the dogs to have people care for them, and give them a chance.

How we spend our media time and dollars
[media-credit name="Nielsen" align="alignleft" width="270″][/media-credit]
Kids are watching more TV than ever, they just don't watch it on that old-fashioned television set gathering dust in the living room. New Nielsen research finds more viewing is done on mobile phones, tablets, laptops, anywhere but conventional TV.
Americans are cutting back on wired cable and increasingly turning to satellite and telephone-company provided programming, according to Nielsen's latest "cross-platform report." But even folks with Internet and no cable or satellite service spend the majority of their video time watching content from traditional TV, the study finds.
Consumers are willing to pony up for entertainment: nine-tenths of all TV households pay for content, either via satellite, cable or from a phone company. Three-quarters of U.S. homes subscribe to broadband Internet.
Other findings: Asians spend nearly 2.5 times more time watching video on the Internet than do Caucasians. Hispanic homes are more likely to be broadcast-only or pay for satellite than any other ethnicity.
Cord-cutters (or broadcast-only homes that upgraded to Internet service) are on the rise. At 4.5% of U.S. homes they represent "a very small but growing group."

I am writing to you about the management of sheep leases in the Missionary Ridge area of the San Juan National Forest. I hunt elk in the areas around Henderson Lake, Lime Mesa, and City Reservoir on Missionary Ridge. This year a large herd of sheep was slow-grazed over this prime elk-hunting area after Labor Day and before the start of the Colorado elk first rifle season.
These sheep ate the grass and other vegetation down to the dirt, leaving nothing for the resident elk to eat. As a consequence, these elk were nowhere to be found during the Colorado elk first rifle season. This experience was shared by many elk hunters in that area.
The San Juan National Forest is supposed to be a multi-use resource, not merely a grazing ground for livestock. To provide for true multi-use, private livestock leases should stipulate that the livestock be brought out of the San Juan National Forest well before Labor Day.
Elk hunters bring a lot of money to Colorado as well as to local Durango businesses. Im a nonresident hunter. My elk license generally runs about $550. I generally spend three nights in a hotel in Durango during my hunt. I spend money in local restaurants. I buy gasoline in local gas stations. I buy souvenirs for myself and my family members in the downtown shops in Durango.
My elk-hunting experience in the San Juan National Forest on Missionary Ridge has been very enjoyable heretofore. I promise, however, that if the sheep problem experienced this year repeats year over year, I will discontinue my elk hunting in that area, maybe discontinue elk hunting entirely. Im sure many other hunters nonresidents and residents feel the same way. Please keep the San Juan National Forest a true multi-use resource. Please require private livestock to be brought out well before Labor Day in the future.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Senior quarterback Lee Sweeney
received the prestigious Robert Hill Johnson Award and six other
teammates accepted honors Sunday afternoon as the Tennessee Tech
football squad was recognized at the team's 2010 Awards
Sadly, head coach Watson Brown was not able to attend the event after his mother, Katherine, passed away earlier in the day.
"All of us will keep coach Brown and his entire family in our thoughts and prayers," said Director of Athletics Mark Wilson. "He looked forward to this event, but this is a reminder to all of us that life is so much bigger than football."
The coaching staff handed out four long-standing awards plus three new honors after the Golden Eagles posted a 6-5 overall record in 2009, including an undefeated 3-0 mark against the three Tennessee schools in the Ohio Valley Conference to capture the Sgt. York Trophy. Tech also posted a perfect 5-0 record at home in Tucker Stadium and had a winning record of 5-3 in conference play.
Taron Ryce received the Sonny Allen Leadership Award, Derrian Waters accepted the Tech Pride Award, and Brendon Fisher the Unsung Hero Award. Brown and his staff established four new awards, including the Offensive Player of the Year that went Tim Benford, Defensive Player of the Year to Dustin Dillehay, and Special Teams Player of the Year to Josh Paz.
The Dog Daggett Most Improved Player Award, named in memory of the team equipment manager who passed away in November, will be selected at the conclusion of spring drills.
Sweeney, a product of Mt. Juliet, Tenn., was a four-year starter at quarterback for the Golden Eagles and set numerous single-game, season and career records while ranking among the top all-time passers in OVC history. Among his career records were most passing yards, most passing touchdowns, most completions, most yards of total offense and most touchdowns responsible for.
Sweeney is the sixth quarterback to win the RHJ Award, but only the second signal-caller in 40 seasons to be selected. The only other since 1972 was Grant Swallows in 2001, who was at Sunday's dinner. The last quarterback prior to that was Jim Waddell in 1971.
The Sonny Allen Leadership Award went to senior cornerback Taron Ryce from Harvest, Ala. The only senior starter in a young Golden Eagle secondary, Ryce was second on the team with nine passes defended and also contributed 56 total tackles, two tackles-for-loss, two quarterback sacks, and two interceptions. Ryce finished his career with 201 total tackles, 33 passes defended and six interceptions.
For Waters, a fifth-year senior from Franklin, Tenn., it marked back-to-back Tech Pride Awards. Waters came into the year as the starter at a linebacker position but suffered a knee injury in the season-opener against Pikeville. He worked hard to rehab his injured knee and returned to the field for the final game of the season, scoring a touchdown in Tech's win over Murray State.
He is only the third player to repeat as the winner of the Tech Pride Award, joining D.J. Bleisath in 2000 and 2001, and Sam Brooks in 1988 and 1990.
Brendon Fisher, a senior from Tallahassee, Fla., took home the Unsung Hero Award, in recognition of his substantial contributions to the team. A three-year start and team co-captain, Fisher registered 35 total tackles, six tackles-or-loss, two quarterback sacks, one interception and two passes defended.
Wide receiver Tim Benford was named the Offensive Player of the Year. A sophomore from Chattanooga, Benford led Tech with 33 receptions for 580 yards and two touchdowns on his way to earning first-team all-OVC honors. Benford caught the game-winning touchdown pass in Tech's 20-13 win over Tennessee State that clinched the York Trophy.
Dustin Dillehay, a junior from Hartsville, Tenn., claimed the Defensive Player of the Year award, a tribute to his hard work, determination and team-first attitude. Dillehay led the team with 78 total tackles and also had three interceptions, two tackles-for-loss and four passes defended. Dillehay was named OVC and National Defensive Player of the Week after his late-game interception return for touchdown helped Tech defeat UT Martin in another key York Trophy contest.
The Special Teams Player of the Year honor went to junior Josh Paz of McMinnville, Tenn. He played on all four of Tech's special teams and finished with 24 total tackles covering kickoffs and punts. He played on more than 200 plays on special teams in addition to lining up at safety on defense. On kick returns he graded out over 94 percent and on punt returns over 92 percent.
The 2008 and 2009 seniors were also recognized at the dinner. The 2008 seniors included Scott Eller, John Ross Hudson, Jake Kiser, Maurice Smith, Pete Taylor and Bradley Thompson. The 2009 seniors were Taylor Askew, Derek Dickerson, Brendon Fisher, Brandon Harris, Josh Paz, Kelvin Quarles, Taron Ryce, Calvin Smith, Lee Sweeney, Derrian Waters and Cedric Wilkerson.

Riverside Health System joins organizations across the country on National Healthcare Decisions Day, April 16, 2014, encouraging individuals of all ages to have conversations about their medical wishes.
Newport News, VA – There's no doubt about it…thinking about death, especially your own, is no easy task. Talking about it with people you love, whether you're 30 years old or 80 years old, is even harder. Add to this asking someone to make decisions on your behalf if you become so ill you can't do it on your own, and it's easy to see why a majority of Americans do not have Advance Medical Directives or Medical Powers of Attorney in place.
But it doesn't have to be that difficult, experts say, especially when people start thinking about these conversations as a gift – gifts you can give on April 16 during the 7th Annual National Healthcare Decisions Day or anytime during the year.
"It's hard to think about these things," said Dr. Laura Cunnington, Riverside Health System's Medical Director for Palliative Care and Hospice Services. "The flip side is that it is so much harder if you haven't thought about it and someone has to figure out what they should do for you. You give them a gift by taking that burden away."
Healthcare organizations are required to provide information about healthcare decision-making rights and to ask all patients if they have an Advance Directive. Making future healthcare decisions includes much more than deciding what care they would or would not want. Instead, the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization recommends that we think about how we want to live. "That's what this is really about," says Cunnington. "When the end of life is near, our experience of living – being with our family, being free of pain and suffering – are the things that become important to most people."
"Only 25 percent of adults are estimated to have Advance Medical Directives completed and in place," said Carol Wilson, Riverside's Director of Palliative Care Services and Advance Care Planning. More so, only half of the adults who have an advanced illness have done the planning. "In general, young people think about it less," Wilson said. "We all like to think we're immortal and this planning requires us to think about what makes life worth living, if we would want to be kept alive at the end of a terminal illness or in the event of a brain injury, and under what conditions we would want treatment stopped."
Even Cunnington used to be part of that statistic. "When my husband and I were in our 30s, he was in a terrible motorcycle accident and he was unconscious for three days," she said. "He's fine now. But at that time we hadn't had the conversation. You think you know someone so well because they are your spouse, but when it comes to life and death decisions it's far better to have had that conversation."
"Advance Medical Directives not only should be done by everyone, but should also be updated and revisited as you age," Cunnington said. "What your Advanced Care Directive says in your 30s could be different if you are in your 60s and have a diagnosis of a serious illness." Cunnington said.
The reasons many people have not started this type of planning, Cunnington said, is "No time." "Not important." "Didn't want to talk about something so depressing." Cunnington gets that. "I'm a palliative medicine physician and I have these discussions all day, every day," she said. "When I have these discussions with my own parents, though, it's not easy."
So Cunnington talks about Advance Medical Directives as a gift. "Once you get to the hospital, there may be a multitude of reasons why you can't make your own decisions," Cunnington said. "Having a loved one in the hospital can be very distressing for families. It's already stressful enough to be in the hospital, but then to be asked to make decisions like this can be very hard. Having your wishes already in place at this difficult time is a gift to them, as they make difficult decisions about your care.
For more information about advance care planning, visit http://www.riversideonline.com/patients_guests/advance-directives.cfm
Every family is different. Some are accustomed to talking about death and dying. For those, the conversation may be easier to start.
For others, consider the following tips to help start the conversation about establishing your Advance Medical Directive.
1. Blame it on the media. Piggy-back off of something you see on TV, read in the paper, or current events. If a medical show has a dangerous medical situation in a plot line, for example, use that as a way to say, "if I were ever in that situation…" to get the conversation started.
2. Blame it on your doctor. After a doctor's appointment, tell your family your physician has asked you to talk about it as a way of ensuring all your medical paperwork is up to date. Be sure to say it isn't because of a recent diagnosis.
3. Blame it on your lawyer. Tell your family you are completing your estate planning and your lawyer includes a living will or Advance Medical Directive, and you want to ensure all your paperwork is up to date.
4. Blame it on Healthcare Decisions Day. Tell your family this is a gift you want to give them and now is the time to do it.
FAQs ABOUT ADVANCE MEDICAL DIRECTIVES
What questions will I be asked?
The first thing on the Advance Medical Directive is naming the person who will be your healthcare agent. This is the person you trust to speak for you, a person who would make decisions as you would.
Who should I name as my healthcare agent?
This part is harder, even though many think it's easily a spouse. The reality is you are asking someone to be responsible for making your medical decisions and someone that close to you may be emotional during a challenging medical time. Consider someone who could play that role and who will make decisions on your behalf.
Where can I get the documents?
Riverside Health System offers the necessary documents online at http://www.riversideonline.com/patients_guests/advance-directives.cfm . Once you have completed the forms, you have to sign and date them with two witnesses. They do not need to be notarized.
Where do I store my Advance Medical Directive?
Make copies and give one to your healthcare agent, anyone who is close to you and your primary care physician. Anytime you received medical services, you will be asked for this document.

READING, Pa – Robert Rossiter was looking for a different basketball journey than the rest of his family.
The Staten Island native watched both his cousins Ryan and Steve stay on the Island and star at Monsignor Farrell. Both went on to play Division I basketball at Siena and Davidson, respectively. Robert Rossiter considered staying on the other side of the Verrazano Bridge, but wanted a different atmosphere and better competition. After a talk with his parents, who wanted him to get away, he headed to CHSAA Brooklyn/Queens and Xaverian instead.
"It's probably one of the best decision's I've ever made," said Rossiter, a junior.
Xaverian coach Jack Alesi knows the Rossiter family well. Ryan and Steve both went upstate to the former Carnesecca-Sarachek Camp, where he was a director and their father Steve was a referee. Robert Rossiter reminds him very much like the two of them in the way he plays and carries himself. He's fit right in with the blue-collar philosophy at the Bay Ridge school.
"We are glad that he's the one [who came]," Alesi said. "Both of his cousins were terrific ball players and he is built from the same mold. The biggest complement I can give Rob is he is a typical Xaverian player. He's what I want a typical Xaverian player to be."
The 6-foot-4 Rossiter gives the Clippers, who are competing in HoopGroup Elite team camp this weekend, a versatile piece. He has the strength and smarts to play an undersized forward, the perfect complement to star guards Lamel Faison, Raven Owen and George Lambert.
Rossiter scored twice in the post in a loss to Gil St. Bernard at Albright College on Saturday in the consolation round of the National Bracket. Rossiter, who was playing the high post, can also shoot the 3 and get out in transition.
"He will think his way around the game," said Alesi, who was their watching as his son Chris coached. "He will think his way around the court and he is a listener. … He handles what you say to him."
It's his IQ as much as his skill that got Rossiter moved up to the varsity as a sophomore. Alesi said he and his staff found themselves trusting him and putting him on the floor in crunch time because of his steadiness and his ability to carry out a game plan. He has seen an improvement in his shooting so far this summer and Rossiter wants to shore up his handle and defense. He talked about how much he loves going up against some of the city's elite big men.
"I love trying to play my best against them, trying to outhustle them and outmuscle them," he said.
It's the opportunity he afforded himself and wanted when he picked Xaverian.
"When I was younger I thought about [staying on Staten Island], but when I got into eighth grade I just wanted to play at a high level," Rossiter said.

Post subject: Seafood Sauteé
Seafood Sauteé; or what should have really been my first attempt at a home-made Paella. But as it was me, I forgot to check a recipe, or the ingredients beforehand, so this was an ideal opportunity for me to ad-lib more or less from the off: However, it worked, and was surprisingly tasty with two platefulls polished off in almost record time.
: Serves Two
500g of mixed Seafood; we used the frozen one from Iceland which contained: Squid rings, Mussels, Shrimps and Prawns: allow to fully thaw out before cooking.
3 Gloves of Garlic ~~ crushed.
1/2 Red Onion ~~ diced.
1/2 Red Bell Pepper ~~ diced.
100 g Button Mushrooms ~~ diced.
8 Cherry Tomatoes ~~ quartered.
1/2 glass of Ruby Port.
6 Tablespoons of Fruit Vinegar ~~ we used some of our very agreeable Damson Vinegar.
A small pinch of Saffron ~~ steeped in 1/2 cup of warm water for at least 10 minutes.
2 Tablespoons Extra virgin Olive oil.
100g Paella or Rissoto rice.
Fry off the crushed Garlic in the Olive oil in a large sauteé pan, add the onions and soften, add the Peppers, then the mushrooms and tomatoes, continue frying on a high heat as you add the Ruby Port and the Sea food. Bring back to the boil, add the fruit vinegar, and then simmer for 3-4 minutes; add a little water if necessary do not over cook as all that will do is toughen up the Seafood. Add the Steeped Saffron and the water and return to boil. Add the Rice and cover the sautteé pan with a lid. Continue cooking, stirring occosionally until the rice has soaked most of the liquid and is ready.
Serve immediatly on pre-warmed plates, with warm crusty bread, and a decent Bottle of Red wine; We drank a bottle of Broadland Sloe wine with our Seafood simmer.
Simmering away nicely in the sauteé pan:
On the plate and ready to go:

What I did not tell you all yesterday, that while I was in Iceland I also picked up a 500g packet of frozen mussels reduced in price to only 50p. After last night's success with the mixed Seafood simmer, Lois & I decided to have the mussels for dimmer this evening.
Mussel Sauteé
500 g Frozen Mussels ~~ allow to fully thaw out before preparing this meal.
A level Teaspoon of Smoked Paprika
200 ml Rosé wine ~~ We used Mateus from Portugal
!/2 Red Onion ~~ finely diced
1 large stick of Celery ~~ finely diced
1/2 Red Bell Pepper ~~ finely diced
A dash of Olive oil
100 ml fresh Milk
Cornflour to thicken.
250 g Baby Green Beans.
Fry off the Onion, Celery and Pepper, then add the Rosé wine and Smoked Paprika. Bring to the boil and add the Mussels and then simmer for 2-3 minutes. Add the baby Green Beans and the milk and bring back to the boil and simmer for another 3-4 minutes. Meanwhile; mix a little more milk with the Cornflour to thicken the ingredients still cooking in the pan, and serve immediately on warmed plates.
We had Garlic roast Potatoes with ours. The Rosé wine and Smoked Paprika really did add a new diamension to this Mussel Sauteé.
Simmering away in the pan:
Ready to eat:
This Rosé, Smoked Paprika and Mussel liquor sauce was too good to waste, so I mopped it up with a slice of wholemeal bread:

The frozen Mussels compared well to the ones that I have purchased fresh from local fishmongers. The meal did lack that certain something that you obtain from Mussels freshly gathered off the Sea shore.
Cooking live Mussels in their shells in the sauteé along with the other ingredients would have enhanced the meal with the extra depth of flavour, but the frozen mussels did make for a very tasty meal.
I am lucky, as only a few miles up the road I have access to the beaches and some of the best Mussel beds in the North Sea. Brancaster and Holkham beaches and Mussel beds only being about 40 miles away, but Lois & I tend to pick live Shellfish from the beaches a little closer to home: around Bacton, Keswick, Wallcot and Happisburg (pronounced locally as Haze-brurr), which are less than 20 miles, and only a 90 minute bicycle ride from home.

that's good info. our market has fresh clams and usually fresh mussels but quite frankly as a serious percentage of the shells are typically cracked open, I just don't quite trust them. . . .
now and then I see "good looking" bags where they are all still "clammed up" and I'll go for it.
we used to live in New England 'on the sea-side' and at low tide could harvest a dinner full - but we're not there anymore [g]
I will keep an eye out for the frozen, because the tinned are just awful!

Very Good point!
Avoid shellfish that have damaged or opened shells before you cook them.
When I purchase Mussel and Razor-clams, etc. from either the market or the fishmongers, I like to get my hands into the trays and select my own shellfish.
It is also worth noting that any shells that do not open during cooking need discarding immediately, as this indicates they were alread dead before cooking and very likley harbour one of the nastier food poisioning bugs.

I have a lovely book on sashiko embroidery - but no real sashiko supplies to try it with. I'll tinker with my cotton embroidery thread and thick needle until I can find the real thing. But does anyone know of a US based supplier for the thread, needles, thimble, premarked patterns/fabric (for a beginner), etc.?

Has the Lord Christ two wills and two actions, that is a Divine will and a human will, as well as two actions, that is, a divine act and a human act? As we believe in the One Nature of the Incarnate Logos, as St. Cyril the Great called it, likewise:
We believe in One Will and One Act:
Naturally, as long as we consider that this Nature is One, the Will and the Act must also each be one.
What the Divine nature Chooses is undoubtedly the same as that chosen by the human Nature because there is not any contradiction or conflict whatever between the will and the action of both.
The Lord Jesus Christ said: "My meat is to do the Will of Him that sent Me to finish His work. " (John. 4:34). This proves that His Will is the same as that of the Father. In this context, He said about Himself " the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner." (John. 5:19).
He does not seek for Himself a will that is independent of that of the Father. Consequently He Says "For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

What makes someone a legend? Is it the fact that their red carpet appearances send journalists into a frenzy? Is it their onstage presence? Is it someone whose voice is so incredible that it has the power to cast a spell over millions of people? Or maybe it's their rockstar swagger? The answer is all of the above. There are countless Latino superstars: Gloria Estefan, Ricky Martin, Shakira and Selena Quintanilla — who was taken away from us way too soon. But what about the next generation?
Here are five Latino musical legends in the making:
1. Next Generation: Bruno Mars
Bruno Mars, 25
Mars is an appropriate name for this Hawaii native's astronomical musical talents! At just 25, the singer — whose music dominates the airwaves — has already shown that he can be a hitmaker as well as a songwriter and producer. Bruno co-wrote the hooks for three huge hits: "Nothin' on You" by B.o.B, "Billionaire" by Travie McCoy, and "Forget You" by Cee Lo Green. But he's also the voice of his own hits, including the soulful love songs "Just the Way You Are" and "Grenade." One of the most brilliant things about Bruno as an artist is the eclectic range of musical genres he blends together — Motown, reggae, R&B, hip-hop, and pop. Bruno's rise to stardom didn't happen overnight; as a child he would impersonate musical legends like Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. We wonder if he ever knew he'd be one, too!
2. Next Generation: Natalia Jimenez
Natalia Jimenez, 29
The daughter of a Spanish father (who was also a singer) and a Portuguese mother, Natalia rose to fame as the effervescent lead singer of the Spanish pop band, La 5ª Estación. After completing four studio albums with the group (the last one, Sin Frenos, dropped in 2009 and received the Grammy award for Best Latin Pop Album in 2010), Natalia did what many superstars (Ricky Martin, Fergie) have done before her: she left the group to fly solo. Not only does Natalia have the backing of Sony behind her; she's also being mentored by Gloria and Emilio Estefan in the studio, as she readies her English debut album for the summer of 2011. And while you may love the sound of Natalia on the Spanish version of Ricky Martin's current hit, "The Best Thing About Me is You," we promise you that you're about to be blown away!
3. Next Generation: Diego Boneta
Diego Boneta, 20
Although he's had recurring roles on hit teen dramas like 90210 and Pretty Little Liars — and got his start in the Mexican soap opera Rebelde — Diego considers himself first and foremost a singer. And with a voice like his we can see why! Already a big deal in South America, the Mexican-born singer released his first Spanish album Diego under EMI Music in 2005, and in 2007, he re-released the album singing all of the songs in Portuguese for an edition that sold over 100,000 copies in Brazil alone. He also sings in English, is easy on the eyes, plays several instruments, and writes most of his own songs! As if that weren't enough, Boneta—who memorably serenaded our readers with Jose Feliciano's "Feliz Navidad"— has just been cast in the highly anticipated movie-musical "Rock of Ages," starring Tom Cruise and Alec Baldwin!
4. AccessPass
5. Next Generation: Esperanza Spalding
Esperanza Spalding, 26
Sure, she beat Justin Bieber for Best New Artist at this year's Grammys (making her the first Jazz artist to win the award), but that's not why we think Esperanza is one of the next big ones. Best known as a jazz bassist and singer, Esperanza is a multi-instrumentalist who taught herself how to play the violin at the age of five! At 15, she was already a concertmaster. She also plays the piano, clarinet, violin, oboe and bass, and sings in three languages: English, Spanish and Portugese. Her 2010 album, Chamber Music Society, hit No. 1 on Billboard's Contemporary Jazz Albums chart in 2011, and she recently wrapped a tour with Prince. Plus, the most important man in the free world, President Barack Obama, is a fan. Unlike the Bieber fever, there's no cure for our love of Esperanza!
6. Next Generation: Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato, 18
Most Disney stars don't inspire rappers like Timbaland to write songs specifically for them, but then, Demi Lovato isn't your typical Disney star. While she was in rehab getting treatement for physical and emotional issues, Timbaland created a YouTube video and sent Demi this message: "Demi, I'm so ... I'm sitting here looking. Man, I'm just like, 'Wow.' You are amazing, girl." Timbaland isn't the only one who thinks Demi is brilliant. According to Disney, the part-Mexican actress/singer, who stars on the network's hit show Sonny With a Chance, has the highest grossing album sales worldwide within the Hollywood Records family—thanks to her albums Don't Forget (2008) and Here We Go Again (2009). Both albums debuted at #2 and #1, respectively, on the Billboard 200. Superstar? We think so.

Creative Finishes for Cabinet Interiors
If you have glass-front or open cabinets in the kitchen, the interior of the cabinet can be an awesome place to show off some color. Here are a few ideas:
- Wallpaper the back face of the cabinet to introduce a little print in the kitchen.
- Back the cabinet with a different texture, like the blue-painted beadboard shown here.
- Paint the entire interior, including shelves, for a really cool contrast.

The Carthage College football team (3-1, 1-0 College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin) opened its CCIW-schedule on Saturday, Sept. 29 with a 31-6 win over North Park University (1-3, 0-1 CCIW) in Carthage's Homecoming game at Art Keller Field in Kenosha, Wis.
Carthage took a 7-0 lead at 5:05 first quarter on a 33-yard touchdown pass from A.J. Simoncelli to Pete Djurickovic. The Red Men's scoring drive went 54 plays on four plays. The two teams played a scoreless second period, with the Vikings having a commanding lead in time-of-possession in the first half, 21:22 to 8:38.
The second half was all Carthage, as the Red Men scored 21 points in the third period and three more in fourth quarter for the final, 31-6 margin. Simoncelli hooked up with Nick Gremley on a 16-yard touchdown pass at 12:57 third period to cap a five-play, 75-yard scoring drive, and the Red Men led, 14-0. Wide receiver Pete Djurickovic caught the first of two long touchdown receptions from Simoncelli at 7:46 third period. The first one covered 99 yards and broke both Carthage and Art Keller Field game records of 92 yards set by quarterback Mark Phelps and receiver Rick Versen versus Wheaton College (Ill.) on Oct. 15, 1977. The 99-yard return also tied a CCIW record set by North Park's Gary Duesenberg and Harvey King versus Illinois Wesleyan University in 1970.
The second Djurickovic TD catch in the second half went 71 yards and put the Red Men up by a 28-0 margin. Kicker Brett Bukari(Jr., Bloomfield Hills, Mich./Beverly Hills-Detroit Country Day) booted a 20-yard field goal at 12:28 fourth quarter to up Carthage's lead to 31-0. The Vikings got on the scoreboard with 4:54 to play in the game on a three-yard carry by quarterback Tyler Krebs that ended a five-play, 72-yard drive.
North Park had a 36:39 to 23:31 lead in time-of-possession. Carthage rolled up 440 total offensive yards, 140 rushing and 300 passing, while North Park collected 342 total yards, 274 on the ground and 68 in the air. A.J. Simoncelli (Fr., Downers Grove, Ill./South) completed 14-of-23 passes for 292 yards and four touchdowns. Pete Djurickovic (Sr., Pleasant Prairie, Wis./Kenosha-Bradford) caught five passes for 208 yards and three TDs. He is only the third Red Men receiver to collect 200 yards or more receiving yards in a game. Nick Merchut was the last to do so with 210 yards in the 2009 North Central College game. The school record is 243 yards by Rob Garnes against North Park in 2000. Defensively, lineman Sean Cleveland (Fr., Wheaton, Ill./North) led the way with 11 tackles (10 solo, 1 assisted), including two tackles-for-loss.
"The kids did a good job," said Carthage coach Tim Rucks. "We got done what we needed to get done. It wasn't pretty, especially in the first half, but we put them away early in the second half. We had a whole first half of near-misses. We executed better in the second half. There were holes in the North Park defense, and just had to find them. Pete Djurickovic is good receiver and probably the fastest guy on the team—he played a great game. I thought the first score of the second half was huge to make it a two-score game. Once we did that, I just thought we were the better team. Our freshmen did a great job today, especially Sean Cleveland on the defensive line. Our offensive line did a good job, although not so much in the first half. Wheaton is going to be very good next week, although we've played them tough over the past few years. This group may not do all the smart things or the right things, but they play hard, and they compete."
Carthage travels to Wheaton, Ill., on Saturday, Oct. 6 to take on CCIW-opponent and No. 20 Wheaton College (Ill., 3-1, 1-0 CCIW) ) in a 1 p.m. game at McCully Stadium.

Senate approves legislation to combat invasive species
The State Senate today gave final legislative approval to a bill (S.6826a) sponsored by Senator Betty Little that would restrict the sale, possession and importation of invasive species in an effort to combat a growing environmental and costly problem throughout New York.
"Invasive species are much more than a nuisance, but a threat to ecosystems," said Little. "As we've seen across the state, once invasives are introduced and take hold, dealing with them is time consuming and costly and they are almost always impossible to eradicate. The point of the legislation is to strengthen our first line of defense."
The legislation would require the Department of Environmental Conservation, in cooperation with the Department of Agriculture and Markets, to restrict the sale, purchase, possession, introduction, importation and transport of invasive species. Working in consultation with the Invasive Species Council, the state agencies would develop regulations dealing with the disposal and control of invasives, including a list of prohibited species that would be illegal to knowingly possess with the intent to sell, import, purchase or transport.
Penalties would range from a warning for a first violation to fines of not less than $250 for subsequent violations. Financial penalties would be greater for nursery growers, operators of public vessels and commercial fishing vessels.
As part of the regulatory process, the legislation directs the agencies and council to consider establishing grace periods for prohibited and regulated species so businesses can plan the management of existing stock. Public hearings are also required as the regulations are developed which, Little said, will help raise awareness and educate about the harmful impacts of invasives species.
Groups in support include the New York State Farm Bureau, Nature Conservancy, Adirondack Landowners Association, Adirondack Council, Environmental Advocates of New York, New York State Association of Counties and Lake George Association.
The bill will be returned to the Assembly.

DOVER – Vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan argued controlling the national debt should be a top priority for the country during a stump speech in Dover Tuesday.
Ryan fielded questions at a town hall-style forum at the McConnell Community Center, where he was joined by state Senate Majority Leader Jeb Bradley and U.S. Rep. Frank Guinta.
Standing beside an electronic message board, which displayed the country's growing deepening debt burden, Ryan said the debt crisis in Europe should serve as a cautionary tale for the United States.
"We can't keep doing this," the Wisconsin congressman said, referring to the country's borrowing practices. "This debt is getting out of our control."
Ryan said Republicans are hoping to preserve the principles of free enterprise and social mobility in America in this year's presidential election. He said he and Republican running mate Mitt Romney are providing voters with an affirmative agenda that will give a mandate to enact their agenda when they get into office.
Ryan emphasized that he and Romney believe in the necessity of social welfare programs. However, he said programs such as food assistance should be measured on a metric of how many people are taken off of the recipient rolls.
"We don't want a safety net that encourages more dependency because there's no economic growth behind it," Ryan said, "because what that ends of up doing is it drains people of their will … to get on the path to prosperity."
Ryan is making his third trip to New Hampshire since joining the Romney ticket. The Wisconsin congressman is expected to speak at a town hall-style event in Dover shortly after 11 a.m.
Ryan made his first campaign appearance in the Granite State shortly after being announced as GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney's choice for vice president. Ryan joined Romney at a rally in Manchester last month, then campaigned once again in the city on his own a few days later.
Ryan's visit came less than 24 hours after a stop in New Hampshire by U.S. Sen. John McCain. On Monday, the Arizona Republican and former presidential nominee also held a town hall-style event at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 168, located at 238 Deer St. in Portsmouth.
The region has seen a surge in politicking from both sides of the presidential race during the last several weeks. In addition to appearances by Ryan and Romney, who recently visited Nashua, the campaign organized a speech by Ann Romney in Stratham.
A new poll says the race for president remains tight in New Hampshire, but the amount of undecided voters is on the rise.
The WMUR Granite State Poll released Thursday shows 45 percent of likely voters plan to support Obama, 40 percent say they will vote for Romney, and 3 percent say they support another candidate.
"When Mitt asked me to join him in this quest, to join him on the ticket, he said a few things," Ryan told a crowd estimated by organizers from the campaign at 450 people.
"He told me what he thinks, who he is, what makes him tick, what his values are, how we share each others values, and he also said 'You have the experience of being a reformer in congress, of tackling the big challenges in America that confront our eocnomy. That experience is something we need, because we need to get this thing under control."

CHICAGO – While the Cubs aren't a threat to contend for the playoffs, they have built momentum heading into the All-Star break.
Entering Sunday, the Cubs have won five of their past seven series as well as winning two series and splitting another in their past three series at Wrigley Field. A large part of the Cubs' success has been the development of their bullpen, which was in shambles early this season.
"Right now, our bullpen is as functional as [I've seen since] I've been here to where you can mix and match," manager Dale Sveum said.
Closer Kevin Gregg, who signed with the team two weeks into the season, has provided much needed stability in high-pressure, late-game situations. Gregg, 35, has a 1.95 ERA, surrendering seven earned runs in 31⅓ innings, with 17 saves.
"I think from the start of the year this group thought we could compete," Gregg said. "We've had a lot of one-run losses, and we were on the wrong side of a lot of those early. We've gotten the bullpen kind of figured out, and I think that's helped us keep those leads and allowed us to win a lot more games lately."
Cubs designate Rodriguez for assignment: After only appearing in five games with the Cubs, right-hander Henry Rodriguez was designated for assignment before Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Rodriguez owned a 4.50 ERA with the Cubs, allowing six hits in four innings, while walking four and striking out only one batter after he was traded to the Cubs from Washington on June 11. The move was made to create a spot on the roster for outfielder Cole Gillespie, whom the Cubs claimed off waivers Saturday from the Giants. Gillespie, who will wear No. 2, was available off the bench Sunday.
"I feel like I can steal some bases, play solid defense," Gillespie said. "I think I can do the little things good. … It's been up and down the last few years. Hopefully, I get a pretty good opportunity here."
Baker makes rehab start: Scott Baker moved another step closer to making his season debut with the Cubs.
Baker, who is working back from Tommy John surgery, took the loss for Class-A Kane County after allowing four runs – all in the first inning – on six hits in three innings. He also walked one and struck out two batters on 56 pitches.
"I didn't get a pitching coach report or anything, that will come in later, but I think right now for him, it's more of getting work in and getting comfortable," Sveum said. "Understanding that when you have these things, sometimes you don't want to let it go yet. I think [Sunday] was a big hump to pitch against hitters and getting in a real game."

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (February 9, 2006) - The Lady Bucs shot out to a 17-point advantage in the first half and didn't look back, downing Jacksonville (6-14, 3-10 A-Sun) in a 74-53 decision, Thursday night in Memorial Center. Senior B.J. Banjo (Baltimore, Md.) led a quartet of Lady Bucs (13-7, 9-4 A-Sun) in double figures with a game-high 21 points. Candace Gibson (Warner Robins, Ga.) also had a big night, tallying her fifth double double of the season with 14 points and 11 rebounds.
The Lady Bucs rolled out to a double-digit lead by the 9:00 mark of the first period, when a Gibson layup put ETSU on top, 24-14. ETSU reached its largest lead of the half with just three seconds remaining, when Jenny Norman (
The second half began much like the first ended with Banjo nailing a three to put her squad up 20, at 43-23, with 18:28 to go in the half. The Lady Bucs continued to pull away, extending the lead to 27 with just over 12 minutes to play, thanks to a layup by DeVault.
The Dolphins would make a run of their own, however, cutting the lead to 16 behind a DeVina Hamilton layup with 2:32 to go. The Lady Bucs bounced back quickly, taking the advantage to 23 on a three pointer from Holly Moring (Irmo, S.C.) to make the score 72-49.
Ashley Williams led
The Dolphins were only able to manage a 32.8 percent performance from the field on the night, while the Lady Bucs posted a 45.0 percent effort. The Lady Bucs were also hot from the charity stripe, yielding 86.7 percent on 13-for-15 shooting.
The Lady Bucs continue their homestand on Saturday, February 11, when

Pro-Google Vigilante Squad Terrorizes Germans
German reactionaries have a bizarre new icon: Google. Vandals in the Bergerhausen area of western Germany have egged several houses for opting out of Google Street View, leaving behind notes reading, "Google's cool." Get the message, privacy-hoarding squares?
All of the victims in the Saturday night attacks elected to have their row houses blurred on Street View, joining about 3 percent of German households who have done likewise. One angry victim told the Der Westen website that there's nothing "cool" about egging someone's house. Google is also not lending any support to the digital anarchist attackers, saying the company "distances itself completely" from the attacks and that "we've clearly given people the possibility to blur out their house, and naturally we respect their wishes."
Great. But people who have bitched about GMail slowness on Twitter or maybe cracked some unkind Google Wave jokes on Facebook should probably watch their backs on the mean streets of Bergerhausen.
