Kyle Anderson is 6-foot-9, 230 pounds. He averages 15.4 points, 8.7 rebounds and 6.8 assists. He is a finalist for the Bob Cousy Award.
Justin Cobbs is 6-foot-4, 190 pounds. He averages 16.0 points, 2.9 rebounds and 6.0 assists. He, too, is a finalist for the Bob Cousy Award.
The UCLA sophomore and Cal senior have been the lynchpins on their respective teams this season, guiding them with disparate styles while carving spots among the nation's 23 best point guards. Today's Pacific-12 Conference game at Haas Pavilion could mark the last time the two meet on the court.
Anderson's development into the nation's top triple-double threat — his 14 double-doubles lead the Pac-12 — has helped transform the Bruins (20-5, 9-3 Pac-12) into the league's most potent offensive squad and put it a game behind first-place Arizona. As the sophomore has grown comfortable holding the reins, he's turned into a solid shooter.
After finishing with a 43.0 effective field-goal percentage as a freshman, he is sitting at 54.3 in a stat that adjusts upward for 3-pointers. The former five-star recruit averages less than two long-range attempts per game, but makes more than half of what he launches.
"He's very judicious," Cal coach Mike Montgomery told local media. "He's not forcing shots."
Good health has contributed, too. A thumb surgery last April forced him out of basketball until a month before he enrolled at UCLA, an absence that threw off his shot mechanics. He had injured his left thumb in his last high school game, then aggravated it by playing in three all-star competitions.
Once he returned, he found himself fading away too often and pulling his left hand away from his shot too quickly.
"I've always been a very good shooter," Anderson said. "I think freshman year with my thumb, that really messed me up, not being able to play in the offseason. I got back to the basics this summer."
Cobbs has made the opposite transition. While Anderson always possessed preternatural passing instincts, the Bears' point guard had to learn how to help his team when he wasn't shooting.
Once a three-star recruit who spent a wayward year in Minnesota, Cobbs has become an unquestioned leader for third-place Cal (17-8, 8-4). His debut season in Berkeley featured a 29.5 assist rate, 114th in the country. This winter, he's 31st at 34.5.
He has done that while touching the ball last on 26.1 percent of his team's possessions, the highest number for a Bear since Jerome Randle, the 2010 Pac-10 Player of the Year.
"He's not the 'See everybody, looking to the move the ball first,'" Montgomery said. "He'll still look to score the ball. He's a scoring point guard."
Adams nears record
With six games left in the regular season, Jordan Adams already has 73 steals — nine short of tying UCLA's single-season record.
The current mark was set by Cameron Dollar through 32 appearances in 1996-97.
Adams, who should easily eclipse the milestone, wasn't sure why he's so successful. He gets a steal on 5.34 percent of defensive possessions, the sixth-best rate in the country.
"I'm just in the right place at the right time," the sophomore said. "That's all I can say about it. I'm not the fastest guy. I have good anticipation."

Blogging Again, But...
A year off from blogging has been good for me, but it's time to fire up the keyboard once more. The blogging, for the most part at least, won't be here at Blue Bexley, but over at Plunderbund, currently the premier Ohio political blog. I'm very excited about collaborating with those guys, and I hope you'll visit there/subscribe if you don't already do so.
All of my blogging on state and regional politics, and any other general interest topics, will be done at Plunderbund, and posted there exclusively. I have no immediate plans to start up Blue Bexley again, and if I do start it up again, it will be hyper-local (e.g. BB is pro-chicken, wants to know why the school board gets veto power on Priada's liquor license after voters have approved it, etc.). Once again, though, if you've been waiting for hyper-local Bexley blogging, you're still waiting. :)
Actually, if someone reading this has, knows of, or is planning to start a Bexley blog, send me a link.

Thermoelectric Energy Conversion: Transport, Materials, and Systems
Additional materials available (4)
Licensed under General Performance Usage.
Published on
Thermoelectric devices exploit thermal energy carried by electrical charges for the conversion between heat and electricity for cooling, heating, and power generation applications. The efficiency of thermoelectric energy conversion systems depends on the materials thermoelectric figure of merit, heat source temperatures, and heat transfer in and out of the devices. This talk will start with an introduction to thermoelectric effects, and move on to discuss ways to understand and engineer electron and phonon transport in thermoelectric materials to improve the figure of merit. On phonon transport, thermal conductivity spectroscopy and coherent heat conduction will be discussed. Modulation doping in 3D random structures and invisibility of nanoparticles to electron transport will be explored for improving the electron performance. Device and system challenges will be discussed, with a focus on solar thermoelectric energy conversion, including the demonstration of flat-panel solar thermoelectric generators at 4.6% efficiency with no optical concentration.

Nunavut Territory, Canada
Igloolik, (sometimes spelled Iglulik), is an Inuit community in Nunavut, northern Canada. Because it is on a small island in Foxe Basin that is very close to the Melville Peninsula (and to a lesser degree, Baffin Island), it is often thought to be on the peninsula. The name "Igloolik" means "there is an igloo here" in Inuktitut and the residents are called Iglulingmiut (~miut - "people of").
Information about the area's earliest inhabitants comes mainly from numerous archeological sites on the island; some dating back more than 4000 years. First contact with Europeans came when British Navy ships HMS Fury and HMS Hecla, under the command of Captain William Edward Parry, wintered in Igloolik in 1822.
The island was visited in 1867 and 1868 by the American explorer Charles Francis Hall in his search for survivors of the lost Franklin Expedition. In 1913, Alfred Tremblay, a French-Canadian prospector with Captain Joseph Bernier's expedition to Pond Inlet, extended his mineral exploration overland to Igloolik, and in 1921 a member of Knud Rasmussen's Fifth Thule Expedition visited the island.

Within the cycling industry, some companies have fully committed to road tubeless with multiple models while others dispute the claimed advantages. There are divergent opinions on BICYCLING'S test staff, too. Read on to decide if this new technology is for you:
Flat Protection.
Anecdotal evidence from our testers suggests that tubeless systems incur fewer flats than tubes. But, current road tubeless tires are thicker and heavier than high-end, nontubeless clinchers, making a comparison difficult. Also, almost all of our riders use sealant inside their tubeless tires, but not in their tubes. Still, we've found that road tubeless is a solid choice for rough pavement and gravel roads.
Lower Pressure
Road tubeless was designed to work at lower pressures than most road clinchers. Hutchinson, which developed road tubeless with Shimano, recommends that cyclists use as much as 13 psi less than they would run in a tube. Running less pressure means the ride quality will improve; some riders claim the ride is as smooth as a tubular tire. Lower pressure also boosts traction when cornering and braking, because softer tires stick to the ground better. But some claim that the ride isn't as supple as high-quality, traditional tubulars or even the best open clinchers.
Hutchinson says that its road tubeless tires, built with no-stretch carbon beads, cannot roll off the rim, but we'd hate to be the unlucky ones to disprove this claim. Assuming Hutchinson is right, the tire will stay on the rim should you flat.
Limited Selection
There are currently 25 tubeless road wheels and 10 tires on the market. More options are on the way, but nothing like the breadth of products available for cyclists riding standard clinchers. Only one tubeless tire is wider than 23mm (Hutchinson Intensive, a narrow 25c) and just two carbon wheelsets—Corima's Aero+ Tubeless (also sold as the Hutchinson RT1) and Mad Fiber's clincher.
More Maintenance
Working with road tubeless wheels and tires isn't as simple as handling a regular clincher. You have to be patient when working stiff beads on and off rims—a process that often requires soapy water. You have to be careful about choosing tire levers, repairing punctures, and installing valves, rim tape, and strips. You also need an air compressor to properly install many tires. You have to remember to refill the tire with fresh sealant every few months—and if the sealant can't fix a puncture out on the road, the repair is much more time-consuming and complicated.
If you ditch tubes, you should use sealant. But putting it into the tire can be messy, and inserting a tube in the event of a bad cut will be even messier. You'll also need to strip the old goop from the rim when it's time to add new sealant.
Our Take
Switching to tubeless won't save you a lot of weight the way swapping to tubulars can, and setup and maintenance are a little harder than normal. Once everything is together, the system requires a little more vigilance, but and the ability to run lower pressure offers a smooth ride and good traction. We don't foresee tubeless exponentially gaining popularity until a more varied lineup of wheels and tires is available—especially lighter, more aerodynamic wheels and fatter, lighter tires with more efficient casings. Eventually, we could see tubes relegated to jersey pockets and seat bags, coming out only when a tubeless tire fails catastrophically.
How Does Tubeless Compare?
Lab tests comparing tubeless road tires with standard clinchers have not been conclusive—perhaps partly because they've been conducted in a lab instead of out in the real world. The only consistent finding we can draw from existing studies is that companies making and selling tubeless products find them to have lower rolling resistance than tires with tubes. Companies not on the bandwagon say those claims are bunk. To help form our own opinion, we performed one of the oldest evaluations in the cycling industry—a roll-down test—on tubeless tires from Hutchinson and Maxxis, comparing them to a standard tire from Michelin. It was a basic experiment: Starting from a dead stop at a specific spot on a hill, we coasted down until the bike stopped, then measured the distance traveled and quantified speed via GPS. We controlled as best as we could variables such as rider and position and used equal pressure (100 psi, front and rear) on the same wheels (Giant P-SLR-1) mounted on a Pinarello Prince test bike. We completed all testing in a short time span to minimize any effect from changing weather and did six trials with each combination to try to average out variables beyond our control, such as gusts of wind.
|Michelin Pro4 Service Course w/ latex tube
|Hutchinson Fusion 3 RT
|Maxxis Padrone
|Michelin Pro4 Service Course w/ butyl tube
Although we don't advise that you consider the results of our limited test completely conclusive, we think the broader findings are interesting and more than likely reflect real-world use: With a latex tube, a top-of-the-line clincher was fastest; the tubeless tires were grouped tightly, reflecting, we believe, the current lack of variety in products; heavier butyl tires with clinchers were the slowest combination; and, most significantly, the differences in speeds are not yet so great that a rider can't compensate for it in other ways.

The Emarsys JavaScript API (also sometimes referred to as Web Extend) is a data collection system that captures the activity and behavior of website visitors. This information is used to enrich your Emarsys contact database with web behavior fields, and to generate personalized product recommendations for the Predict solutions.
How this works with other Emarsys products
In order to use the JavaScript API, you have to load the
scarab-v2.js JavaScript source to your page. The code snippet you need to insert into your websites HTML is available in your Emarsys Marketing Platform account. To display it, go to Admin > Data Sources and click Show tracking code in the Web Behavior box. The code you will see in the modal window already contains your Merchant ID, so all you need to do is paste it into your websites HTML.
Make sure to add our tracking code to all pages on your website, immediately before the
</head> element. As the
scarab-v2.js file is loaded asynchronously, it does not block the rendering of the page or the execution of other JavaScript code.
If you have already implemented the tracking code in your website, you can still display it at any time on the Data Sources page. To do so, find the Account Details box on the bottom right-hand side, and click Tracking code next to your Merchant ID.
General usage of the API
You interact with the JavaScript API through so called commands. Commands are represented by arrays whose first element is the command name, and subsequent elements (if any) correspond to the parameters of the command.
The JavaScript API collects commands issued by the JavaScript running on your website and stores them for later execution in the global
ScarabQueue JavaScript object. To add a command to
ScarabQueue, invoke its
push method. Actual execution is initiated only when the special go command (having no parameters) is added to the queue; after execution is completed, the queue will be empty. In other words, usage of the API follow the pattern below:
ScarabQueue.push(['command1', argument1a, argument1b, ...]); ScarabQueue.push(['command2', argument2a, argument2b, ...]); ... ScarabQueue.push(['go']);
Where to use JavaScript API commands
Some of our API commands should be included in ALL website pages:
- setEmail or setCustomerId to identify known website visitors,
- and cart to report their current cart content.
Other API commands are applicable on specific sections of the online storefront:
- view – On product pages.
- category – On category pages.
- searchTerm – Search results pages.
- purchase – On the checkout confirmation page.
Command Reference
Below you can find an alphabetical list of all available commands.
['availabilityZone', zone]
Set availability zone. Used in conjunction with the recommend command for websites which support localization.
- zone (
String) – ID of the availability zone. It should match the locale suffix used in the product catalog.
Placement: Use this command on pages which request product recommendations using the recommend command if your site has multiple availability zones.
['cart', cartItems]
Report the list of items in the visitor's shopping cart.
- cartItems (
Array[Object]) – Cart items (may be empty list). A cart item has the following properties:
- item (
String) – Unique ID of item (as it appears in the
itemfield of the product catalog).
- quantity (
Number) – Item quantity.
- price (
Number) – Total payable for the given quantity of items.
- item (
Placement: Issue this command on every page (even if the customer's cart is empty).
['category', categoryPath]
Report the category currently browsed by the visitor.
- categoryPath (
String): Category path as it appears in the default
categoryfield of the product catalog.
Note: if you are using Predict services on a localized website, you will still need to push the default
category field value with this command.
Placement: Issue this command on category pages only.
['displayCurrency', code]
Set display currency for Discovery.
- displayCurrency (
String) – The currency code in ISO 4217 format (e.g. eur, usd, huf), as it appears in the product catalog as the suffix of the price and msrp fields.
Placement: Issue this command on all pages of a website where Discovery is enabled if the default currency needs to be overriden.
['exclude', field, comparison, expectation]
Define an exclusion criterion for recommended items; more than one criteria can be specified by multiple
exclude commands. An item will not be recommended if it satisfies all exclusion criteria. Always use it in conjunction with the
recommend command.
field (
String): name of the product catalog field whose value will be checked against the criterion.
comparison (
String): comparison operator, has to be one of the following:
- is – field value is equal to expectation, which is a
- in – field value is found in expectation, which is an
- has – (applicable only to fields containing multiple values) one of the field values is equal to expectation, which is a
- overlaps – (applicable only to fields containing multiple values) one or more of the field values are found in expectation, which is an
expectation (
String or
Array[String]): the value or list of values to which the field value is compared.
Placement: Issue this command on pages where you use the
recommend command.
The comparison only applies to the entire field value and is case sensitive. For example, if you want to exclude the field value
24/7™ Lace Full Coverage Bra you should provide the whole field value exactly as it is spelled, no other strings (such as
24/7™ Lace or
24/7™ lace full coverage bra) will produce a match.
Execute commands in the queue, that is, send them to the recommender service for processing.
go should be issued exactly once on every page of the website. It is considered a best practice to issue the
go command immediately before the HTML documents'
</body>element. This way, javascript executing on the page can issue commands which are queued for evaluation and executed at once when the page is finished loading.
['include', field, comparison, expectation]
Add inclusion criterion for recommended items; more than one criteria can be specified by multiple
include commands. An item is recommended only if it satisfies all criteria. Always used in conjunction with the recommend command.
For parameter details, see the exclude command.
Placement: Issue this command on pages which use the recommend command.
['language', code]
Set display language for Discovery, and certain Predict web recommender widgets (e.g.
- language (
String) – The language code, as it appears in the product catalog as the suffix of localized fields. Supported languages are listed in the Discovery documentation.
Placement: Issue this command on all pages of a localized website where Discovery is enabled.
['purchase', descriptor]
Report a purchase event.
- descriptor (
Object) – A description of the purchase cart, with the following properties:
- orderId (
String) -The unique ID of the purchase.
- items (
Array[Object]) – The items purchased. A purchased item has the following properties:
- item (
String) -The unique ID of the item (as it appears in the
itemfield of the product catalog).
- quantity (
Number) – The quantity of this item purchased.
- price (
Number) -The total amount payable for the item, taking into consideration the quantity and any discounts.
- item (
- orderId (
Placement: Issue this command on the checkout confirmation page.
This command should be only issued once for a given purchase. Emarsys does not check the submitted purchases for duplication.
['recommend', settings]
Request recommendations (note that it's possible to request multiple types of recommendations on a single page by issuing this command several times with different parameters).
- settings (
Object) – The parameters of the recommendation request, it has the following properties:
- containerId (
String) – The ID of the DOM element where the recommendations are to be rendered. The element must be present in the DOM at the time when the command is issued.
- logic (
String) – The name of the recommendation widget to use.
- limit (
Number, optional) – The number of items to recommend; the default value is 5.
- templateId (
String, optional) -the ID of the DOM element containing the custom template which should be used to render recommendations.
- templateStr (
String, optional) – The custom template to be used to render recommendations. Not used if
templateIdis specified.
- baseline (
Array[String], optional) – The IDs of items recommended by a base (non-Predict) recommendation service. Used when comparing the performance of the Predict recommender to another one.
- success (
function(SC, render), optional) The success handler callback function, see later. SC is an object containing product recommendation information, render is the javascript function to be called which displays the recommendations.
- containerId (
Placement: Issue this command on any page where recommendations are to be displayed.
If a custom template is used, it should be written using the doT.js template language, for further details, see its documentation. You can either provide the template text directly in the templateStr property, or place it in a script element (with its type set to
text/html) and specify the element ID in templateId, like so:
<script type="text/html" id="simple-tmpl"> <![CDATA[ doT.js template ]]> </script>
The attribute
data-scarabitem must be present on one of the HTML elements containing an item for Predict to be able to track clicks on recommended items. Its value should be the unique item ID (see the
item field of the product catalog).
Note that if you want to provide buttons for users to request more recommendations or revisit the set of previously recommended items, set the class of the HTML elements corresponding to these buttons to
scarab-next and
scarab-prev, respectively. In case the navigation operation cannot be carried out (e.g. there are no more recommendations or there is no previous recommendation to go back to), the
scarab-disabled-button class will be added to the given HTML element.
Inside the template, recommendations can be accessed through the
SC variable, which stores product recommendations using the following structure:
- recommender.f (
String) – The widget name, same as the
logicparameter for the recommend command.
- page.products (
Array[Object]) – The recommended items. An item has properties which were specified for it in the product catalog.
- topic (
String) – The category path of the recommended items if applicable.
The success handler function will be called when recommendations are returned from the recommendation server. It receives two arguments:
Object) – The description of the recommendations, as seen above.
- render (
function()) – Functions without arguments, which should be called before the success handler function returns. This function is responsible for displaying the recommendations stored in recommendations.
Inside the success handler, you can freely modify or extend the content of SC, which will be passed unchanged to the custom template, if it exists.
['searchTerm', term]
Report search terms entered by the visitor.
- term –
String– The search term entered by the visitor.
Placement: Issue this command on the search results page.
['setCustomerId', customerId]
Report your inhouse customer ID for known visitors (logged in).
- customerId (
String): unique customer ID.
Note: This command is an alternative to the default identification option setEmail. Do not mix usage of these two commands.
Placement: Issue this command on every page if the current visitor is identified.
['setEmail', email]
Report the email address of known visitors. Known visitors incude users who are logged in, but also any interaction point where the email address is entered by visitor and recorded into Emarsys Contact DB, such as newsletter subscriptions, guest purchases.
- email (
String): visitor's e-mail address.
Note: This command is the default identification option, to which setCustomerId is an alternative. Do not mix usage of these two commands.
Placement: Issue this (or the setCustomerId) command on every page if the visitor is logged in or identified.
If you want to use this command, you have to create a new custom data field in your Emarsys account (Admin menu > Field Editor) and call it 'predict last session tags'. You can then implement the 'tag' commands you plan to use, and Web Extend will collect these and write them into contact database the next day.
['tag', tag]
Add an arbitrary tag to the current event. The tag is collected and can be accessed later from other Emarsys products.
- tag (
String): tag.
Placement: This command can be issued on any page.
Placement: Use
testMode command on your staging/test site to avoid test traffic from interfering with your live website data-collection (for example to prevent purchases on the test site from showing up in Site Traffic statistics).
Note that
testMode also prevents the Live Events tool from working. The Inspector tool will still work, you can use it for checking your JS integration.
['view', itemId]
Report a product view.
- itemId (
String) – ID of the item (as it appears in the
itemfield of the product catalog).
Placement: Issue this command on product pages.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Israel this week is being hit by heavy thunderstorms and meteorologists are predicting further stormy weather and even snow in the Jerusalem area.
While the rain is welcome, the storms sweeping across the land have caused massive damage. Flooding and property damage, closed roads, hail damage, the closure of a major sewage system in the Tel Aviv area. Talk in the Israel media is of further chaos.
But many are trying to see the positive side of the weather situation: Thanks to the heavy rain the water level of the Sea of Galilee is rapidly on the rise. Only three more meters and the lake will be full.

Silver lining: Witt shines as LYdM shutters
Dark days have descended, both literally– the Winter Solstice is December 21– and figuratively, as three of Charlottesville's major art venues, Sage Moon, Migration, and grande dame Les Yeux du Monde, prepare to close. But if the lights must go out, at least Les Yeux du Monde is first sending up fireworks.
Clay Witt's tour de force, "The Peaceable Kingdom," is the gallery's last show in its current location. To call Witt simply a mixed-media painter does a disservice to the unusual materials–rust, crushed coral, metallic leaf, polymer emulsion, and intaglio prints–he incorporates into his layered and textured pieces.
The 12 works on display include several small studies that reveal how Witt plays with ideas and techniques he later develops into larger paintings. Beautiful in their own right, these studies offer viewers insight into the artistic process. Paintings don't spring fully formed from an artistic well; rather, they're the result of repeated experimentation and consideration of what works and what doesn't.
But these smaller pieces are like appetizers for the feast of Witt's six large paintings. Set in the woods at night, each opulent work features a dark background alive with glimpsed outlines and seeming movement in the shadows. Gilded trees are the central focus of most of Witt's symmetrical compositions, their gold or silver surfaces raised and afire with stylized flames reminiscent of Tibetan iconography. Spirituality is a key component of these works, as reflected in their often Biblical titles, but Witt seems less interested in proselytizing than in creating scenes of mystery and wonder.
In two instances, Witt's compositions deviate into asymmetry, and these are perhaps the strongest works in the exhibition. In "Lazarus," an obscured tree still forms the center of the painting, but it is engulfed in a chaotic swirl of oxidized gold sparks and embers (or fireflies). With a lacquer-smooth background shifting like smoke between grey, mauve, purple and black, the effect is hypnotic.
But the piece de resistance of Witt's show is its namesake, "The Peaceable Kingdom." This painting moves from near blackness on the left to a world tantalizingly illuminated by an inferno on the right. As flames swallow an almost invisible wrought-iron cage, the blaze reveals animals– a rhinoceros, a tiger, a wild boar, a dog, and others– watching together from within the woods.
Witt's dark yet dazzling show enables Les Yeux du Monde to go out with a brilliant bang.
Clay Witt's exhibition, "The Peaceable Kingdom," is on view through December 31 at Les Yeux du Monde. 500 West Main St. 973-5566.

Cory Monteith may have been at high risk for overdose
The British Columbia coroner confirms that Glee actor Cory Monteith died of an overdose of heroin and alcohol. VPC
When patients leave detox, they can be especially vulnerable because their bodies are no longer able to tolerate high doses of drugs.
People such as Cory Monteith who have used heavy drugs can have an increased risk of a fatal overdose in the period after leaving rehab, doctors say.
The British Columbia coroner confirmed Tuesday that Monteith, from the TV show Glee, died of an overdose of heroin and alcohol.
The actor, 31, whose body was found at the Fairmount Pacific Rim hotel in Vancouver, had checked himself into drug rehab in April.
CORY MONTEITH: Coroner says heroin and alcohol caused actor's death
Rehab can be lifesaving, and it helps many addicts get clean for good. But addicts can be vulnerable to overdose after going through a detox program, because their bodies are no longer able to tolerate high doses of drugs, says Neal Benowitz, a professor of medicine at the University of California-San Francisco. He has no personal knowledge of Monteith's case.
Heroin users develop a tolerance over time, so they need larger amounts of the drug to get high. Their bodies become able to withstand large amounts of the drug, Benowitz says.
Monteith had a long history of drug use. In an interview with Parade magazine in 2011, Monteith said that his drug use had spiraled out of control when he was a teen and that he was "doing anything and everything, as much as possible."
Once those drugs are cleared from person's system, however, taking a big dose all at once can prove fatal, Benowitz says.
"Among people who have been clean and sober, if they go back into the habit, they will usually start at the same dose that they had before," says John Brown, an attending physician at San Francisco General Hospital's emergency room. "Their body is now sensitive to it. They've essentially reset their body."
Heroin produces euphoria by binding to receptors on nerve cells in the brain, Brown says. But many of those receptors are located on nerve cells that regulate breathing.
So heroin suppresses respiration not by damaging the lungs but by damaging parts of the brain that tell the lungs to breathe, Brown says.
The combination can create a vicious cycle, Brown says. The brain fails to send the proper signals, so breathing slows. That causes cells to become deprived of oxygen, which further decreases brain activity.
Addicts can die because they simply stop breathing, Brown says.
Alcohol, which also suppresses a person's breathing and heart rate, amplifies heroin's depressant effects, Benowitz says. And when people are drinking, they may be more likely to use drugs, as well as fail to pay attention to how much they're taking.
Doctors can sometimes save overdose patients by giving them oxygen and medication to reverse the effects of heroin on the brain, Brown says. People who survive can be left with brain damage, because their brains were deprived of oxygen.

The following are updates on area Major League Baseball players.
Marco Estrada (Glendale Community College, 2003) starting pitcher, Milwaukee Brewers: It's been a season to forget for the Milwaukee Brewers, who are 52-68 and have been in last place throughout the bulk of the season in the National League Central Division.
Estrada, a former All-Western State Conference pick, spent about two months on the disabled list with a back injury and is looking to finish off the season on a positive note.
Since returning recently from the disabled list, Estrada has provided the Brewers with some positive news by winning his last two appearances
Estrada turned in arguably his best effort of the season Tuesday in Milwaukee's 5-1 road victory against the red-hot Texas Rangers. Estrada went six innings and allowed one run and struck out two while facing 22 batters in snapping Texas' eight-game winning streak.
"Overall, I can't complain about this," Estrada told mlb.com. "I kept the team in the game and we pulled it off. It's a confidence booster.
"I know [Texas is] a very good hitting team, and when somebody gets on you don't try to be perfect, you just try to keep the ball down and low and just make your pitches."
Earlier, the right-hander provided the Brewers with a boost. He went five innings in his return to the mound Aug. 7 against the host San Francisco Giants, but didn't factor into the decision in Milwaukee's 6-1 victory.
Estrada gave up just one hit and struck out six in a 76-pitch effort.
Estrada, fresh off a pair of rehab starts, had a limited pitch count. He set down his last 14 batters and 15 of 16 overall.
"His command was outstanding," Milwaukee Manager Ron Roenicke told the Associated Press. "He kept his curve down in the zone, and his fastball had life to it. For him, coming back after two starts and throwing only 2 2/3 innings, I thought it was really good."
In 14 appearances, Estrada is 5-4 with a 4.71 earned-run average. In 80 1/3 innings, Estrada has struck out 70 and walked 18.
Brandon McCarthy (Glendale native) starting pitcher, Arizona Diamondbacks: McCarthy, who was signed as a free agent by the Diamondbacks during the offseason, recorded a quality start Saturday against the visiting New York Mets. Unfortunately for McCarthy, Arizona couldn't provide enough offensive support in a 4-1 defeat.
Since the right-hander returned from the disabled list Aug. 4 following a couple of months on the disabled list with shoulder inflammation, the Diamondbacks have scored just one run in McCarthy's last two appearances.
McCarthy surrendered two runs and struck out four in seven innings against the Mets.
"I felt pretty good," McCarthy told the Associated Press. "The few pitches that I would like to have back, but overall I felt that I did a good job of commanding the ball and kind of moving them around."
In his previous start Aug. 4 against the host Boston Red Sox, McCarthy lasted 4 1/3 innings. He yielded two runs and five hits and struck out five in a 4-0 defeat. He made 97 pitches in each start.
McCarthy has lost three decisions in a row, and last won May 24 against the San Diego Padres.
In two rehab appearances with the triple-A Reno Aces, McCarthy didn't have a decision and had a 6.97 earned-run average.
With the most recent surge by the Los Angeles Dodgers that's vaulted it into first place in the National League's West Division, the Diamondbacks (62-57) are now in second place.
McCarthy, who is next scheduled to pitch Friday against the host Pittsburgh Pirates, is 2-6 with a 4.73 ERA and has struck out 48 in 13 starts. He's allowed 43 runs (41 earned) and given up 96 hits in 78 innings.

Fathom Five National Marine Park, Canada
Description and reasons for creation of marine conservation area
National marine conservation areas divide the country's oceans and Great Lakes into 29 regions, each one combining distinct physical and biological characteristics. Parks Canada provides for the creation of marine conservation areas to represent all these ecosystems and manages them for visitors to understand, appreciate and enjoy in a sustainable manner.
View images of the park
An agreement to establish Fathom Five National Marine Park was signed in 1987, at the same time as the adjacent Bruce Peninsula National Park. Although yet to be brought under federal legislation, it has the pride of place as being the first marine protected area under the stewardship of Park Canada. Bruce Peninsula and Fathom Five form a unique tree top to lakebed protected area network.
Fathom Five National Marine Park protects a representative example of two natural regions. The terrestrial component represents the St. Lawrence Lowlands Natural Region, while the marine component represents the Georgian Bay Marine Region.
The Georgian Bay Marine Region is part of the Laurentian Great Lakes, the largest area of surface freshwater in the world. The region is characterized by its westerly sloping basin. To the east is the area characterized by its islands, the highest number in the Great Lakes, and to the west by the cliffs of the Niagara Escarpment plunging as deep as 160 m into the Bay. Shoals and reefs form a complex bottom relief. The strong currents located in the main channel, along with the frequent storms that occur in the area, have been the cause of several shipwrecks. The waters of Georgian Bay are among the clearest in the Great Lakes and visibility easily reaches 25-30 m. This visibility contributes to the community of Tobermory's self-proclamation as the "dive capital of Canada".
The park itself preserves a rich cultural legacy that includes 27 shipwrecks and several historic lightstations. Fathom Five's freshwater ecosystem contains some of the most pristine waters of the Great Lakes. The rugged islands of the park are a reminder of the impressive lakebed topography found beneath the waves.
The protected waters of island bays form habitat for fishes such as Smallmouth Bass (Micropterus dolomieu), Bluntnose Minnow (Pimephales notatus) and Yellow Perch (Perca flavescens). The deep cold waters are habitat for fishes such as Lake Whitefish (Coreogonus clupeaformis), Bloater (Coreogonus hoyi) and Lake Trout (Salvelinus namaycush). At one time, Fathom Five was home to six species of deepwater ciscoes, of which only two now remain.
The islands and peninsula are widely known for their rich diversity of plants, including Great Lake endemics and over 40 species of orchids. Flowerpot Island in Fathom Five is an excellent place to view the delicate calypso orchid (Calypso bulbosa), during the blooming season of mid-May to early June. Island biogeography studies have shown the effect of island area and colonization potential on species diversity. Each island has a unique assemblage of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, plants and insects.
In 1990, the park was designated by UNESCO as a core protected area within the Niagara Escarpment World Biosphere Reserve.
Year established 1987
Area: 112 km2
Location: Fathom Five National Marine Park is an archipelago located in the south-western portion of the Canadian province of Ontario, off the Bruce Peninsula in Lake Huron. It is approximately 300 km northwest of the city of Toronto.
Habitat type: Deep waters reefs and shoals with forested islands
Park management
Fathom Five National Park is managed by Parks Canada, the Canadian federal government agency responsible for protecting and presenting nationally significant examples of Canada's natural and cultural heritage and fostering public understanding, appreciation and enjoyment in ways that ensure the ecological and commemorative integrity of these places for present and future generations. Founded in 1911, Parks Canada is the world's first national parks service and is a global leader in conservation.
Threats, management challenges and measures taken in response
Fathom Five National Marine Park contains at least 40 non-native species. Some species, such as Sea Lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) and Alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus), have significantly altered the ecosystem. Sea Lamprey and Alewife, in association with over-fishing, essentially caused the collapse of Lake Trout populations (Salvelinus namaycush) by 1950 and Deepwater Ciscoes (Coregonus johannae) populations within the park by the 1990's. In the late 1990's, quagga mussels (Dreissena rostriformis bugensis) and round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) have invaded, further destabilizing this vulnerable ecosystem. The invasion of these species has had a large impact on the ecosystem itself, transforming the lake from a pelagic-dominated state to a benthic state due to a shunt in nutrient and energy distribution to the lakebed by the mussels.
Building resilience within park ecosystems to invasive species and climate change is a key priority for Fathom Five. Monitoring and identification of new invasive species is also a priority of Parks Canada.
Currently, Parks Canada is not directly involved in fisheries management. Since the ecosystem is in great flux and sustainability is uncertain, Fathom Five will need to engage with partners to manage these resources.
Species at risk
The Eastern Massasauga Rattlesnake (Sistrurus catenatus) is a species at risk that occurs on one island and the mainland of Fathom Five. Habitat destruction, intentional killings by humans and fragmentation are contributing factors to the decreasing numbers of the Massasauga.
Other species include six fish, one butterfly, two birds, two reptiles and one plant.
Visitor experience
Parks Canada is committed to make every national marine conservation area a treasured place and a living legacy for all Canadians, connecting hearts and minds to a stronger, deeper understanding of the very essence of Canada. Visitors can experience the wonders of Fathom Five National Marine Park through a variety of activities.
Some of the best freshwater diving opportunities in the world are in Fathom Five. Glass bottom tour boats provide those who may not wish to get wet a chance to see shipwrecks as well. Tourboats also chart their way to Flowerpot Island where there is great hiking and a chance to see one of Canada's most recognized "Flowerpot" rock formations. The Parks Canada Visitor Centre is also a must see, with its theatre and exhibits designed to connect visitors to the depths of Fathom Five.

Residents who drive or walk past an open dirt space on Foothill Boulevard will soon have a more pleasant view.
A project to turn a Southern California Edison plot of land into park-like grounds is set to be completed next month. It will include trees, benches and parking spaces. It will also offer more appealing scenery for those using a trail link that traverses the property.
Neighbors have long complained that the vacant lot was unattractive, said Ann Wilson, senior management analyst for the city. In 2006, officials devised a solution.
"Our point was, 'let's use this in a recreational way but something that improves the property,'" Wilson said. "Someone could enjoy something they were looking at while on the trail."
The $252,000 project is funded partially by a $150,000 Proposition A Excess grant. The remainder of the budget comes out of the city's General Fund.
City Engineer Ying Kwan said construction is running smoothly and is set to be complete sometime in March.
Wilson said residents and Edison were unhappy with the vacant parcel. The property had, in previous years, been leased for short-term purposes, such as a Christmas tree lot.
Neighbors who live around the open space may also get a reprieve from freeway noise. Last fall, city officials found funding for a third sound wall, to be placed between the homes near the new park and the Foothill (210) Freeway. Construction is set to begin later this year.
Wilson said turning the land into a park is part of the City Council's goal to beautify Foothill Boulevard.
And while they can't camouflage the Edison equipment there, the new park will be an upgrade.
"It's not as though you can hide all the electrical towers," Wilson said.
"But you can improve the appearance."

The former Mazatlan Theatre in El Sereno has seen better days. The movie house on Eastern Avenue near Huntington Drive has not screened a movie in decades. The marquis on the front of the Art-Deco style building is often blank, and the light bulbs are missing from the letters that spell out MAZATLAN. Inside, the rows of seats have been ripped out and the interior has been rented out primarily as a banquet hall and event space for the last three decades by the De Anda family. Now, the De Anda family is in danger of losing the Mazatlan amid financial troubles. Some young family relatives staged a concert at the Mazatlan last month in hope of attracting attention – and business -to what is now called Mazatlan Hall. Apparently that was not enough. Writer and activist Iris de Anda, who fears the neighborhood landmark will be auctioned off to a developer, has launched an online fundraiser to help her family keep the building. "The failing economy is taking its toll on our dedication, blood, sweat, & tears," said De Anda on the Save the Mazatlan Indiegogo page.
The family is about $25,000 short of the $50,000 needed to hang on to the building, which De Anda envisions being transformed into a community center showcasing music and art and hosting social gatherings and workshops. So, far however, only about $500 has been raised and De Anda does not provide details as to how the family would keep the Mazatlan afloat after avoiding an auction. Still, De Anda is counting on residents of El Sereno to show their support.
"We need places that provide a safe environment to meet, to engage, to connect, & to reach out," De Anda said. "A place where local bands can get up on stage & rock out because sometimes all we really need is a good song."

Corruption in water sector increases hunger risk – experts
"Stamping out corruption in the water sector is crucial to boosting global food production as world population growth increases pressure on water supplies, according to experts meeting at World Water Week in Stockholm.
Corruption in the water sector is already a major problem for farmers and it's likely to get worse as competition for water increases, a joint statement released by the Water Integrity Network (WIN), Transparency Internationaland the U.N. Development Programme (UNDP) Water Governance Facility at the Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI) said.
Governments, businesses and civil society must work together to improve transparency in the water sector, and introduce better checks and balances to counter corruption and nepotism, the statement said." READ MORE

FS#10143 - License of firmware/export/usb_ch9.h is unclear

firmware/export/usb_ch9.h comes from linux (include/linux/usb/ch9.h) with only trivial changes. The original doesn't mention a specific license, so it probably is GPLv2 only.
The file basically contains only structure declarations and defines for things straight from the USB specification though, so I'm not sure if there is a real problem.
This task depends upon

firmware/common/strstr.c is also a straight copy from linux so i assume the same problem for that file.

by Tom Utescher
One is a powerful 5'10", developed her skills in one of the largest crew programs in the Philadelphia area, and spent all of her career in an eight-oared sweep-style shell. The other is slight and strains to reach 5'5" on the measuring stick. She spent her high school years sculling at a school with a limited rowing roster, and as a senior this spring she rowed alone in a single.
So what could Lafayette Hill resident Darian DiCianno, from Mount St. Joseph Academy, and Erdenheim native Jen Sager, of Springside Chestnut Hill Academy, have in common? Following different routes to their goals, each of the two 2012 graduates has built up an impressive list of accomplishments on both the regional and national level.
Earning a seat in the Mount's varsity eight as a sophomore, DiCianno has participated in gold medal performances at the Stotesbury Cup Regatta (twice) and the Scholastic Rowing Association of America (SRAA) championships, and a bronze medal effort at the Head of the Charles Regatta.
Her boats finished fifth in the nation at the U.S. Rowing Youth National Championships in 2010 and 2011, and she ended her senior season by coming in second at the 2012 Henley Women's Regatta by a margin of just two feet.
Sager spent much of her SCH career sculling in a quad, making it into the varsity boat as a sophomore, and helping the Lions win the gold medal at Stotesbury the following year. When that quad crew was broken up due to graduation, she went solo in a single for her senior season, winning every race with the exception of the Stotesbury Cup, where she was the silver medalist.
A week later, she claimed the gold medal at the SRAA's, and in late June she attended the U.S. Rowing Under 23 World Championships at Lake Mercer in New Jersey. There, she came within two-and-a-half seconds (over 2000 meters) of earning a place on the national team, finishing as runner-up to a Princeton University rower three years her senior.
At the Under-23 trials, Sager was officially rowing under the banner of the Vesper Rowing Club on Boathouse Row, where she's doing her summer training and racing. Her future coach at Trinity College, Wes Ng, happens to be the women's open-weight coach at Vesper this summer.
"It's been great, because I've gotten a chance to know him, and Vesper has given me a lot of opportunities," she said. "I think racing with the bigger girls will make me into a better athlete."
The SCH grad noted that Trinity has been to the NCAA championships for the last 10 years, and added there's talk a trip to the 2013 Henley Royal Regatta in the offing for the Bantams. Even the college's mascot, with its associations with a lightweight boxing classification, seems suited for the compact Sager.
Although she's well within the weight guidelines for rowers in the lightweight categorie, she knew that there were relatively few collegiate lightweight crews, and decided to throw in with an open-weight program at a small school.
Her Springside Chestnut Hill coach, Bruce LaLonde, noted, "Trinity told her they don't go by size, they go by who's moving the boat, and I think she'll be fine in an open-weight setting."
LaLonde chuckled when he recalled some other coaches along the Row take a look at Sager and wonder "how does she move a boat as fast as she does?"
His typical response: "She's hard-headed, tenacious, she's a competitor, and she's obviously got something in her genetics that allows her to rise above her size."
The Mount's DiCianno, whose stature is more common among college rowers, was heavily recruited. From her short list of USC, Virginia, and UCLA, she decided to sign on with the USC Trojans.
"I knew I wanted to go far and I knew I wanted to go to warm weather," she said. "I didn't want to have any more cold winters erging indoors (training on an ergometer, the device which objectively measures a rower's power and fitness). What I liked about USC was that it had the sort of family aspect that I had at the Mount, and also how competitive they are. I wanted to be in a program that could do well."
MSJ varsity crews coach Mike McKenna commented "She's probably the best we've ever had in terms of raw physical ability. She was noticeable right from the beginning, and she developed solid technique pretty quickly."
As a sophomore in the Magic's varsity eight, she was grouped in with a bunch of seniors who went on to strong programs at UCLA, Virginia, Duke and Stanford.
"The coaches would come to look at our seniors, and they'd see Darian and say 'who's that?' " McKenna recalled. "I told them they'd have to wait a few more years for her."
Neither she nor Sager had anything in their family backgrounds that steered them towards the sport. Sager had an uncle who had rowed at Syracuse University, but he didn't live near her family, and she didn't handle an oar in earnest until the eighth grade. That's when SCH athletes usually first venture into the rowing tank in the school's field house, and have their first confrontation with an ergometer.
She rowed in a novice quad as a freshman, then moved up into the varsity quad in 10th grade.
"It was a big step when she got into the varsity quad as a sophomore," LaLonde said, "but I think that it was towards the end of her junior year that she made the real commitment."
The boat claimed a gold medal at Stotesbury, and silver at the SRAA's.
DiCianno had no rowers in her family, but her father had been an 800-meter runner at the University of Miami and her mother swam competitively in high school. The younger DiCianno was a year-round swimmer for many years, but she'd heard about the crew program at the Mount, and the summer after graduating from Ancillae Assumpta grad school in Wyncote she enrolled in various rowing camps and met MSJ novice coach Stuart Chase.
"A lot of sports are team-oriented, but in rowing you absolutely have to work together or you won't succeed, and I found that fascinating," she recalled. "It's not like basketball where you can have that one person make a shot at the end and win the game; in rowing if just one person doesn't pull the entire time the whole boat's going to be off."
Chase encouraged her to attend "some camp" early in her freshman year. It turned out to be one of the regional camps where the U.S. Rowing program identifies national junior team prospects. In her first timed two-kilometer session on an ergometer (she remembers starting off incorrectly at the finish of a stroke, instead of the "catch," or beginning), she turned in a time of seven minutes, 39 seconds, a figure out of reach for legions of more experienced oarswomen.
Early in her Mount career, she participated in the U.S. developmental program briefly, but soon decided it was not for her.
"I did the whole thing with swimming at that high performance level and I got a little burned out," she said. "I didn't want that to happen with rowing, because it was something I wanted to do all through high school and continue in college. I actually swam at the Mount into the middle of my sophomore year, but I stopped because I wanted to focus more on crew."
SCH's Sager found herself at a crossroads at the end of her junior year, when half of her crewmates in the successful varsity quad were graduating. Ultimately, she wound up in a single for her senior season, repeatedly racing against girls with more experience in solo rowing.
"I got used to the single during the fall," she related, "then all winter I worked on getting my erg score down because I knew that I would need it going against the open-weights."
"Mentally, when you're racing in a single it's completely different than being in a boat full of girls," she explained. "It really keeps you honest, because whether you win or lose, it's all on you, and you have to be self-motivated."
LaLonde recalled, "She just jumped in and did it; there was no hesitation. To be as successful as she was in the single, I think you've got to make a decision about it. What she achieved, she did more on force – and force of will – than just on technique."
While the Mount's DiCianno remained in an eight throughout her career, Coach McKenna saw significant changes from year to year.
"Where she grew dramatically was emotionally, and in her mental approach," he said. "She developed into a leader and a mature individual who knew exactly what she wanted to do, and why. She was aware of what was going on in the boat around her, and I could get some valuable feedback from her after races."
DiCianno pointed out that she learned a lot about the dynamic within a boat from the seniors who were in the varsity eight during her sophomore season.
"I really looked up to them," she remembered. "Basically, they taught me how to be a leader, how to carry myself, and how to succeed."
McKenna opined, "It wouldn't surprise me if she blossomed into a true team leader at USC. She was supportive of the other girls in her boat, and she provided some stability behind the scenes. She's a very likable kid, and I think she would tend to enhance the chemistry of any crew she's a part of."

Bissonnette's suspension reduced to three gamesNHL.com @NHLdotcom
NEW YORK -- The National Hockey League announced today that it has reduced Phoenix forward Paul Bissonnette's suspension from 10 games to three games for his conduct in leaving his team's bench to join an altercation during NHL Preseason Game No. 9 in Phoenix on September 15, 2013.
In the game in question against the Los Angeles Kings, Bissonnette was assessed a game misconduct under Rule 70.6 for leaving the Players' Bench illegally during an altercation or for the purpose of starting an altercation -- an infraction that also calls for an automatic suspension for 10 Regular Season games.
Because this incident occurred during a preseason game, there was less video evidence than is typically available for these types of reviews, and as a result, the precise timing and circumstances pursuant to which Bissonnette entered the ice surface are not apparent in the video. What is clear in the video is that by the time an altercation ensued, there were six (6) Coyotes skaters on the ice as compared to the normal five (5) skaters for the Kings, and that Bissonnette was the "extra skater" that had entered the ice surface and joined the altercation. Bissonnette was assessed a game misconduct penalty for leaving the Players' Bench illegally under Rule 70.6.
Subsequently, Bissonnette was assessed an automatic 10-game suspension pursuant to Rule 70.10. Bissonnette appealed his automatic 10-game suspension pursuant to Section 18.17 of the CBA. During the appeal process, video evidence not available to the League at the time of the assessment of the suspension was reviewed. Although not conclusive, this new evidence lends support to Bissonnette's contention that, at the time he entered the ice surface, he did so legally, to substitute for Phoenix forward Max Domi. That contention is also supported by various of Bissonnette's teammates and by Phoenix Head Coach Dave Tippett. None of the on-ice officials definitively contradict Bissonnette's contention. Rather, because Domi never exited the ice surface and, in fact, later joined the altercation himself, the officials merely (and properly) determined that a violation of Rules 70.1 and 70.6 had occurred.
Given the totality of these circumstances, including the lack of conclusive video evidence, and Bissonnette's credible assertions regarding the intended legality of his substitution for Domi at the time, the League has decided not to apply the 10-game automatic suspension to Bissonnette under Rule 70.10.
Still, the League has concluded that Bissonnette must bear some responsibility for the situation that occurred on the ice in which six (6) Phoenix Coyotes' Players ended up participating in an altercation, principally involving and targeting Los Angeles forward Jordan Nolan. In this regard, the League is assessing Bissonnette a three-game suspension for his role in the events surrounding the on-ice altercation with Nolan under Rule 28 -- Supplementary Discipline.
It is important to emphasize the uniqueness of the facts in this case, particularly as it relates to the lack of adequate video evidence revealing the precise circumstances and sequence of events that are critical to the application of the automatic suspension.
Typically, in reviews of Rule 70 violations (as was already the case once this pre-season), there is conclusive video evidence that allows for the proper verification of the events on the ice, and the appropriate application of the Rule in question.
As a result of the League's determination to reduce Bissonnette's suspension to three games, Bissonnette and the NHLPA have agreed to withdraw their appeal. The matter is now closed.
Under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement, and based on his average annual salary, Bissonnette will forfeit $11,346.15. The money goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund.
Bissonnette will miss games October 3 vs. New York Rangers, October 5 vs. San Jose and October 8 vs. New York Islanders. He will be eligible to return October 10 against Detroit.

True, but it's not like we had any other chance, with so many injuries. Curry, Maggs and Monta were the only offensive options we had available, so it's only natural that they ended up with great stats, at the cost of shooting a ton (particularly Monta).
The way Maggette shot, I would've rather had him taking more shots than Monta. Likewise Curry

Tim Taylor
|Years at Yale:
|28th Year
Tim Taylor, Head Coach of Yale Men's Hockey (1976-2006) Tim Taylor, who has more wins (337-433-55)than any head coach in the history of Yale hockey, made a name for himself and the Yale hockey program by getting involved in every aspect of the sport. Whether he was leading an Olympic team into battle, coaching an unheralded Yale squad into the NCAA playoffs, moderating a panel at the World Hockey Summit, instructing a youth clinic or teaching his Bulldog players a new system for breaking out of the defensive zone, Taylor made his presence known. Taylor, the head coach of the 1994 U.S. Olympic team at Lillehammer, spent 28 seasons (does not include two years with Olympic teams) behind the Yale bench and coached more games than anyone in the history of ECACHL hockey. More importantly, he sent future Olympians, National Hockey League stars, professional coaches and well-rounded students out on the ice at Ingalls Rink. There were many memorable campaigns under Taylor in New Haven, but one stood out the most. The 1997-98 Yale team that was predicted to finish 10th in the ECAC took the conference regular-season championship and a berth in the school's first NCAA Tournament since 1952. That squad (23-9-3, 17-4-1) set school records for overall and ECAC victories, while Taylor swept all three coach of the year awards. Yale's 1997-98 season of miracles, which included an Ivy League title and the emergence of three All-Americans, was built with a solid recruiting effort and bolstered by a commitment to team defense, something the Eli hockey mentor stresses more than anything else. His defensive efforts helped produce ECAC Player of the Year and Best Defensive Defenseman Ray Giroux and Ken Dryden Award winning goalie Alex Westlund. The Blue, ranked among the nation's top 10 all season, led the ECAC in overall goals per game and team defense and earned its first trip to the conference championships since 1986-87. The Taylor regime produced one ECACHL title, six Ivy League champions, 19 ECAC playoff teams, a pair of 20-win seasons and many professional skaters. Taylor, the 1997-98 Spencer Penrose Award winner as the American Hockey Coaches Association University Coach of the Year, was a three-time (1986-87, 1991-92, 1997-98) ECAC Coach of the Year and a two-time (1991-92, 1997-98) New England Coach of the Year. He coached all six of Yale's Hobey Baker Award finalists. Taylor's 1985-86 squad (20-10), which was his best until 1997-98, shattered 16 team and individual records, beat defending national champion RPI twice, upset national finalist Harvard and climbed as high as No. 4 in the national rankings. It took a 3-2 double overtime loss to Cornell in a classic ECAC semifinal to stop the Elis. In addition to his role with the '94 Olympic Team, the 63-year-old Taylor (who passed Murray Murdoch on the Yale hockey coaching victory list with his 279th on Dec. 4, 2001) had a number of important international assignments, including a role as assistant general manager and assistant coach for the 1984 U.S. Olympic team. He served as head coach of the U.S. National Team at the International Ice Hockey Federation World Championships four straight years in the 90's, in addition to leading Team USA to its best finish in the 1991 Canada Cup. Taylor, an assistant in the Canada Cup, took over Team USA after Bob Johnson became ill and led the Americans to second place. A two-time assistant for the U.S. National Team (1981 and 1983), Taylor also led the South to a silver medal in the 1987 Olympic Sports Festival. Taylor, the recipient of USA Hockey's 2006 Distinguished Achievement Award, is a 1963 Harvard graduate. He spent seven years as an assistant at his alma mater before becoming Yale's 10th head coach. He captained the 1963 Crimson team that won the Ivy League and the ECAC championships, and tallied 46 goals and 33 assists for 79 career points in 68 games. Taylor, the recipient of the Angier Trophy for most improved Harvard player his junior season, made the U.S. national team in 1965 and 1967. Taylor (born March 26, 1942) and his wife, Diana Cooke, reside in Guilford.

From the moment you get off the plane and head North, you can feel the mounting energy gradually intensify as you head toward Hanalei. Signs are hung intermittently along the highway: "We love you Andy." "Hanalei loves Lyndie." "Andy: 1978-Forever." "You'll always be our hearts." Blue ribbons are tied around telephone poles and strung from bridges. The closer you get to the epicenter, the more palpable the emotion.
Thousands of people, everyone in Andy's life—family, childhood friends, fans, along with most of the Top 44—came together today to honor Andy. But today was more than a paddle out. It was unlike anything Kauai, the surf community, or the world has ever seen before. It was an outpouring of emotion and support and community—time, energy, food, entertainment, and equipment readily donated for a celebration of life that can only be described as amazing.
In accordance with Andy's wishes, the crowd didn't form a hand-in-hand circle, but instead gathered just outside the sandbar at Pinetrees and surrounded the boat carrying Bruce, his wife, and Andy's wife, Lyndie. On Jet skis nearby were Andy's parents, Phil and Danielle, huddled around them in the water were all of Andy's closest friends, on nearby canoes were family members, and surrounding all of it were hundreds of other friends and members of the community.
As Bruce stood up, the crowd erupted, splashing water in the air, cheering, and clapping. With emotion and poise, Bruce spoke to the group. "Andy loved all of you here," he yelled. Tears streamed down everyone's faces, as they applauded and chanted, "AI…AI…AI…" Overhead, a helicopter circled and dropped thousands of flowers over the procession. Bruce told the crowd that this is what Andy wanted, for his ashes to be spread outside of Pinetrees, and for everyone to celebrate. Choking back tears, Bruce took out the container carrying his brother's ashes and emptied half into the water. Then, with his arm around Andy's pregnant wife, passed the rest to her so she could bid her final farewell to her husband. With their faces in their hands, the crowd huddled tightest around the boat sobbed.
Andy's parents climbed aboard the boat and the family embraced, surrounding Lyndie's pregnant belly, a tangible symbol of Andy's lasting legacy. Everyone cheered again, pounding their fists against their boards and throwing leis in the air.
Slowly everyone made their way back to shore, where thousands more gathered on the beach and live music and a full spread of food awaited. Another outpouring of emotion was yet to come, as Andy's best friends took turns expressing their memories and sentiments, paying their respects on stage.
Occy recounted his most recent trip with Andy to Tahiti. "The pain will go away, but the memories never will," he said. Luke Egan, Parko, Mick, Corey Lopez, Blair Marlin, and Graham Stapelberg fought back emotion as they expressed their love for Andy, Lyndie, and their unborn child. Then Andy's crew from home—Kala Alexander, Dustin Barca, Jason Irons, Reef McIntosh, Billy Zietz, Danny DeRohan, Kai Garcia, Keala Kennelly, Rochelle Ballard—expressed just how much Andy meant to Hanalei and to the boys. But the most poignant message from all of the memorial speeches was just how elated Andy was to learn that he was going to be a father. "The best memory I have of Andy was when he found out he was going to be a dad," said Fred Patacchia. "I've never seen him happier."
With the birth of his son only weeks away, Andy's legacy lives on.

text: Now is the time to be fishing inshore waters for the tastiest saltwater species of them all, the flounder. Getting into flounder territory takes a boat that can run in the skinniest of water while handling bay chop. Traversing ultra-shallow flats and maneuvering turns in tight channels sum up the demands of a boat for flounder fishing.
