I think of is ... to see more and for the ... seventy three death her hundred thousand ... that had Venice Whelan the murder in Venice Whelan is right now I mean that's an incredibly high Monterey through aam and I that bad in those people were being killed are not ... ah powerful acts that in fact been victims of that high murder rate are largely in Venice Whelan slowness ... and in the poorer neighborhoods where there's can almost complete anarchy and ... aam you know lots of violence so quite apart from the economic question is this question of ... the violence against the little that high in Venice Whelan that it's hard to square with Oliver Stone's not praise and Luciana snow but let's let's talk about the economics a little for someone who is a working class person there who wants to ... increase their wages their wealth over time I once did ...

UPDATE (06/14/11 5:30pm): Big Brother Removed From App Store
(Researchers/Journalists: Looking for the original dataset? Feel free to ask)
In my last update to Big Brother Camera Security (Free), I added some code to record common user passcodes (completely anonymous, of course). Because Big Brother's passcode setup screen and lock screen are nearly identical to those of the actual iPhone passcode lock, I figured that the collected information would closely correlate with actual iPhone passcodes.
In essence, this post is an homage to the well known Most Common Passwords on the Internet articles. Different articles pull from different sources, so naturally aren't the same, but still demonstrate certain trends. Similar trends are evident in the data I present below.
To kick things off, out of 204,508 recorded passcodes, the top ten most common were:
Top ten iPhone passcodes: [1234, 0000, 2580, 1111, 5555, 5683, 0852, 2222, 1212, 1998]
Naturally, 1234 is the most common passcode: mimicking the most common internet passwords. To put this into perspective, these 10 codes represent 15% of all passcodes in use. Most of the top passcodes follow typical formulas, such as four identical digits, moving in a line up/down the pad, repetition. 5683 is the passcode with the least obvious pattern, but it turns out that it is the number representation of LOVE (5683), once again mimicking a very common internet password: "iloveyou."
Interestingly, 1990-2000 are all in the top 50, and 1980-1989 are all in the top 100. I would interpret this occurrence as a subset of users that set their passcodes to the year of their birth or graduation.
To test this, I found the average expected occurrence for numbers matching a specific decade's format:
As you can see, any passcode between 1930 and 2020 has a much higher likelihood versus the average (represented by ****): at minimum a 50% gain, at maximum a 2570% gain. This data implies a heavy age range of 11 - 21 year olds.
Following are some heat maps and corresponding graphs with the breakdown of digit occurrences by position in the passcode. I recommend clicking on the images to get a better look.
Formulaic passwords are never a good idea, yet 15% of all passcode sets were represented by only 10 different passcodes (out of a possible 10,000). The implication? A thief (or just a prankster) could safely try 10 different passcodes on your iPhone without initiating the data wipe. With a 15% success rate, about 1 in 7 iPhones would easily unlock--even more if the intruder knows the users' years of birth, relationship status, etc.

A woman is facing charges she concealed the remains of two babies inside a plastic tote in a Park City home.
Summit County prosecutors filed two counts of desecration of a human body Friday against 28-year-old Molly Frances Jojola.
Prosecutor Joy Natale says in court documents that roommates cleaning a closet in September 2015 noticed a "terrible smell" coming from a tote and discovered the remains of two full-term infants.
Prosecutors say tests have since determined the baby boy and girl were Jojola's children.
Jojola told police she gave birth to stillborn babies in 2012 and 2014.
Jojola, who is living in California, is due to appear in court in September.
She did not immediately respond Saturday to messages left at phone numbers listed for her.

Texas Water Safety Efforts Enhanced by San Antonio Foundation
Scott A. Freund Memorial Foundation funds water safety video for driver education students
AUSTIN — A new water safety video will be produced for Texas driver education courses, thanks to a generous donation by the Scott A. Freund Memorial Foundation. Foundation representatives presented a ceremonial check for $20,000 to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission today.
"These funds will be used to produce a video that will be required viewing for 220,000 drivers education students annually," said Tim Spice, Texas Parks Wildlife Department Boater Education Manager. "Thanks to House Bill 673, which was passed by the 82nd Legislature, critical water safety messages will be delivered via this new vide to all driver ed students in Texas. It's exactly the target audience we need to reach with this life-saving information."
The Scott A. Freund Memorial Foundation was set up in memory of Scott Freund, who was killed in a tragic boating accident on Canyon Lake in 2010. The foundation has been providing funds for equipment for local water safety and water rescue organizations for the last couple of years and wanted to extend its reach to education efforts.
"Promoting boating and water safety is at the core of the Scott Freund Memorial Foundation's charter," said Mathew Freund, who serves as chairman of the board and is Scott's brother. "We're pleased to be able to partner with Texas Parks and Wildlife to spread this important education message about water safety to so many people."
The video is in the planning stages now and should be completed in time for the 2013 boating season.
National Safe Boating week this year is May 19-25, and the presentation today underscored the importance of boater education in making our waterways safer.
Freund noted that educating both new and experienced boat operators on the importance of wearing Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) and attaching kill switches to boat ignitions is also very important to the Scott A. Freund Memorial Foundation.
"Today's PFD's offer convenience, comfort, and are not restrictive to the user," said Freund. "It is our hope that if we can get enough education out there, that boaters will begin embracing life jackets and kill switches in a manner similar to seat belts in automobiles."

Erik Prince: Out of Blackwater and Into China
The former CIA asset on his latest venture: After being 'blowtorched' by U.S. politics, he says, this time he's working for Beijing.
Hong Kong
Erik Prince—ex-Navy SEAL, ex-CIA spy, ex-CEO of private-security firm Blackwater—calls himself an "accidental tourist" whose modest business boomed after 9/11, expanded into Iraq and Afghanistan, and then was "blowtorched by politics." To critics and conspiracy theorists, he is a mercenary war-profiteer. To admirers, he's a patriot who has repeatedly answered America's call with bravery and creativity....

Thick Infant Bib Sweet Puppy Dog Fabric Puppy Park by Riley Blake Wiener Dog Baby Gift Dachshund Dog Baby Heavy Drooler Bib
Thick Infant Bib Sweet Puppy Dog Fabric Puppy Park by Riley Blake Wiener Dog Baby Gift Dachshund Dog Baby Heavy Drooler Bib
Are you frustrated with bibs that get soaked within moments of wear, bibs that your child can pull off without trying, and bibs that get stuck to everything else in the laundry? I was too. That's what motivated me to design my own line of bibs.
I design and construct all of my bibs to be attractive and still very functional. I always use a snap-closure to ensure that the bib will stay in place around your baby's neck. I use a generous cut of fabric to ensure that the bib will cover your baby (and his/her clothes). Most importantly, I select durable fabrics that are, eye-catching, absorbent and comfortable.
I include the following features in all of my bibs:
- A layer of cotton batting down the front of infant bibs for extra absorbency
- Chenille backing to further increase absorbency, increase softness and add durability
- A strong snap closure at the back of the neck
- Top stitching for added durability and a more polished look
- Absolutely no Velcro
- 100% machine-washable/ tumble dry
I finish my bibs to a measurement of approximately 10" long (from the back of the neck) x 8" wide with a neck opening of 10" around. They fit from newborn well through the baby's first birthday.
I produce all items in my smoke-free studio, and package everything with an attractive bow prior to shipping. All fabric has been pre-washed in phosphate and fragrance free detergent. Safety first, please use common sense when you are using our products, do not leave with sleeping babies or children.

How many positive articles about Mexico does it take to confirm a trend? Three seems about right, but add in a major think tank calling 2013/2014 the "Year of Mexico," and you've got a full-fledged movement going on.
First came Chris Anderson's New York Times opinion piece titled "Mexico: The New China," where he describes his cross-border company 3D Robotics. With facilities in both San Diego and Tijuana he is able to do what he calls "quicksourcing," where the short supply chain between the two locations enables the company to innovate faster and control inventory more efficiently. Anderson, who was the editor of Wired before he left to join 3D Robotics full time, compares the Hong Kong and Shenzhen special economic zone of the late 1990s and early 2000s to today's experience working between San Diego and Tijuana. "The sense of possibility I felt when I first crossed from Hong Kong to Shenzhen in 1997 is what I now feel when I cross from San Diego to Tijuana," said Anderson.
Flat-worlder Thomas Friedman weighed in from Monterrey, Mexico on "How Mexico Got Back in the Game," with stats on Mexico's trade with the U.S. – a staggering $1.5 billion a day. Friedman cites The Financial Times reporting that Mexico has signed 44 trade agreements, which is more than any country in the world, and exports more manufactured products than the combined exports of all other Latin American countries. "Better integration of Mexico's manufacturing and innovation prowess into America's is a win-win. It makes U.S. companies more profitable and competitive, so they can expand at home and abroad, and it gives Mexicans a reason to stay home and reduces violence," wrote Friedman.
Violence is where USA Today's article "Mexico's commerce crawls back from drug war's chaos," started – but the story focused on the fact that border violence has been dropping steadily in the last year – quoting a study from the University of San Diego's Trans-Border Institute citing that organized crime-related murder in Mexico dropped 21 percent in 2012. In Mexico's six border states the drop was a dramatic 32 percent. San Diego Regional EDC's Christina Luhn, who leads the Cali Baja Bi-National Mega-Region initiative, worked closely with the reporters and introduced them to people on both sides of the border.
EDC Vice President Sean Barr was in Washington DC last week for meetings at the Brookings Institution regarding their Metropolitan Export Exchange program where teams of metropolitan leaders are working on developing Metropolitan Export Plans to improve their global trade strategies so the nation can remain a center of growth and innovation for years to come. At the meeting Brookings announced that 2013/14 will be the "Year of Mexico." According to Barr, the ongoing reshoring and nearshoring trends have attracted their attention. Their effort will start with an in-depth study of US-Mexico supply chains. "The Mega-Region Initiative is of considerable interest to them," he told the EDC team.
Let's make sure it's really the year of cross-border progress.

The tech behind the Xbox 360's new camera controller, Kinect, is now being used for an impressive—most impressive—new feat: to capture 3D images, stream them over the internet and display them in holographic form.
That's not necessarily a new thing, but the Object-Based Media Group at the MIT Media Lab is doing it with off-the-shelf hardware and doing so better than previous holographic milestones. According to an MIT News report, the Kinect-powered hologram transmitter uses a single camera and can update transmissions at a speed of 15 frames per second over the internet.
Compare that to a similar holographic transmitter from last year that uses 16 cameras and updates at just two frames per second and we're betting the Galactic Empire is already stocking up on Kinects.
MIT researchers believe they'll be able to eventually reach 30 frames per second with their Kinect hologram capture system.
Michael Bove of the Object-Based Media Group, with help from Princess Leia, explains how it works and what it looks like in a video that probably doesn't capture the tech as spectacularly as an in-person demo might. (Yeah, it looks about as graphically rich as any Virtual Boy game you've ever seen.)
MIT News delves deeper into the hardware and software that makes holograms possible with Kinect.

Pamela Root got [a] free flight and [a $300 travel] voucher, plus an apology from Southwest, after her 2-year-old kept screaming ["Go, plane, go!" and "I want Daddy! I want Daddy!"] at the top of his little lungs as their San Jose-bound flight was about to take off. In fact, little Adam reportedly screamed so loudly that the safety announcements couldn't be heard and the pilot turned the plane back to the gate in Amarillo, Texas, where the two were booted off.
. . . Unbelievably, Root demanded the apology she eventually got from the airline (shame, shame, Southwest) and hit it up for the cost of diapers and the portable crib she says she had to buy for the overnight stay. Even more unbelievably, there's still no word of any apology from Root to the other passengers.
There is a notion, reflected in numerous blog comments about the incident, that other passengers should "just deal" and "give a kid a break." This notion is wrong. Parents like Root and others who selfishly force the rest of us to pay the cost of their choices in life aren't just bothering us; they're stealing from us. Most people don't see it this way, because what they're stealing isn't a thing we can grab on to, like a wallet. They're stealing our attention, our time and our peace of mind.

Broncos fantasy football forecast: Not good
I figure that since the NFL world has spent so much time this week focusing on something that won't even happen for three more years (the 2014 Super Bowl), it is totally fair game to talk about something that normally I would consider out of bounds for late May: Fantasy Football.
Denver Post colleague Mike Klis got the conversation started yesterday by offering the prediction that second-year running back Knowshon Moreno could be a fantasy sleeper.
I agree. But I'd like to add that as of right now, Moreno is one of only two Broncos that I would advocate is worth a selection in fantasy drafts this summer.
Even if the quarterback situation here were settled (and God knows it is far from settled), would you want to pick Kyle Orton? Maybe with a late-round pick to be your second quarterback. Would you want to shock your friends and pick Tim Tebow? Would you dare use a pick on Brady Quinn? I don't think so.
What about wide receiver? As I wrote in Tuesday's Denver Post, without Brandon Marshall, the team has no true No. 1 receiver, and I wouldn't be surprised if the team has a different leading receiver from week to week. That could make for a more balanced offense, but it sure doesn't make for fantasy football success if you were to draft Jabar Gaffney or Eddie Royal. Drafting a rookie wide receiver is always a risk, and that is amplified for Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker, since either has yet to practice.
Tight end? If there were fantasy points for blocking, Daniel Graham would be a blue-chip quarterback. Sure, Graham will catch passes (Josh McDaniels loves that tight end screen) but this isn't exactly an offense built around the pass-catching tight end (just ask Tony Scheffler). Keep an eye out of Marquez Branson — maybe you can sign him as a free agent early in the season.
So other than Moreno, who will be the team's leader and figures to be improved in 2010, who should you seek out if you're dying for at least a little Denver flavor on your fantasy team come fall?
Trust me on this one. Prater had an underrated season in 2009 and figures to be one of the better kickers in the NFL last season. He is the lone kicker in the Broncos camp this offseason, a sign that the Broncos' coaching staff agrees.

Education of Migratory Children (I-C)
This program's goal is to support high-quality and comprehensive educational programs for migrant children to help reduce the educational disruptions and other problems that result from repeated moves. In addition, the program attempts to ensure that migrant children who move between states are not put at a disadvantage because of disparities in curriculum, graduation requirements, and content and student academic achievement standards. In school year 1997-98, the program served 621,000 migrant students. This represents about 1.4 percent of all students.
Migrant students have many risk factors in common with other disadvantaged students (e.g., poverty, poor health, learning disabilities), but they also face additional challenges unique to their situations (e.g., disruption of education, poor record-keeping between schools, cultural and language difficulties, and social isolation). Because migrant students usually account for only a small percentage of the total student population, many schools and districts find it difficult to dedicate the level of resources that may be necessary to ensure the best educational experience possible for their migrant students.
WHAT'S NEW--The No Child Left Behind Act
Reduces Bureaucracy and Increases Flexibility
- Establishes a national information system to electronically transfer health and educational information for all children served by the Migrant Education Program (MEP). The U.S. Department of Education will be responsible for developing a national information system and determining the minimum data elements that each state receiving funds should collect and maintain. The national information system will facilitate school access to this information.
- Requires state education agencies (SEAs) and local school districts receiving MEP funds to provide records on migrant students to other SEAs and districts at no cost. This requirement will reduce the burden on SEAs and districts receiving migrant students.
Increases Accountability for Student Performance
- Holds migrant children to the same challenging state content and student performance standards as all children. Under Title I, Part A, state assessment systems must be able to disaggregate the performance results for migrant students. Districts and schools must provide achievement information and school report cards to the parents of migrant students.
Empowers Parents
- Requires school districts and schools to provide school report cards to the parents of migrant students in a format and, to the extent practicable, in a language that they can understand. All the requirements for Title I assessment, accountability and flexibility must be explained to migrant parents so that they can make informed decisions about their children's education.
How It Works
The Migrant Education Program provides SEAs with funding through a state formula grant based on each state's per-pupil expenditure and counts of migrant children between 3 and 21 years old. The statute defines a "migratory child" as a child under 22 years of age who is a migrant agricultural worker or fisher, or who has a parent, spouse, or guardian who is a migrant agricultural worker, and who has moved across school district boundaries within the previous 36 months in order to obtain temporary or seasonal employment in agricultural or fishing work.
Key Requirements
Migrant education programs are required to:
- Ensure that the special educational needs of migrant children are identified and addressed;
- Provide migrant students with the opportunity to meet the same challenging state academic content standards that all children are expected to meet;
- Promote interstate and intrastate coordination of services for migrant children, including providing for educational continuity through the timely transfer of pertinent school records; and
- Encourage family literacy services for migrant students and their families.
SEAs must assure that there is consultation with parent advisory councils for programs of one school year in duration and all programs and projects are carried out in a manner that provides for the same parental involvement as Title I, Part A. Title I Part A requires that each school district must develop and distribute to parents a written parent involvement policy that establishes the agency's expectations for parent involvement. Schools must convene an annual meeting, at a convenient time, to which all parents of participating children must be invited and encouraged to attend, to provide parents with timely information about programs, a description and explanation of the curriculum in use at the school, the forms of academic assessment used to measure student progress, and the proficiency levels students are expected to meet. Also, each school must develop with parents for all children served under this part a school-parent compact that outlines how parents, the entire school staff, and students will share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement and the means by which the school and parents will develop a partnership to help children achieve the state's high standards. To the extent practicable, materials must be in a format and language understandable to the parents. SEAs also must assure that there is adequate provision for addressing the unmet needs of preschool migrant children.
To the extent feasible, all MEP programs and projects also are required to provide for advocacy and outreach for migratory children and their families on such topics as education, health, nutrition, and social services. They must also provide professional development programs for teachers and other program personnel; family literacy programs; the integration of information technology into MEP activities; and programs to facilitate the transition of secondary school students to postsecondary education or employment.
How Performance Is Measured
The effectiveness of programs and projects will be determined, where feasible, using the same approaches and standards used to assess the performance of students, schools, and districts under Title I, Part A. In Title I, Part A, performance is measured by how well schools and districts are making adequate yearly progress in applying the same high standards of academic achievement to all public elementary and secondary school students. Performance information will be publicly disseminated on an annual basis through a system of state and school district report cards. States also must report annually to the secretary of education on: their progress in implementing the requirements of the new law; student achievement on state assessments (disaggregated by groups of students including migrants); and information about schools in need of improvement, public school choice, supplemental educational services, and teacher quality.

Super Bowl Madness In March? The NFL Loves It Some Bracketology
By Barry Janoff
March 15, 2012: In the midst of NCAA March Madness, the NFL the week unveiled its first Super Bowl "bracketology" competition, featuring 64 teams from the Super Bowl era (dating back to 1966).
Fans are being directed to a mini-site at NFL.com to cast their votes, which will culminate with the NFL naming the "Greated Team of All Time," at least dating back to 1966. The league is touting the voting at its Web site and on NFL Network. Support also includes social media, such as Facebook and Twitter.
The field is comprised of the 46 Super Bowl champions plus the NFL's best 18 "at-large" clubs since 1966. The 18 "at-large" teams and seedings were determined by an NFL.com/NFL Network editorial panel, according to the NFL.
Voting will encompass several rounds, including a Sweet 16, Elite 8 and Final Four championship, to be determined March 29-30.
The competition includes four brackets, each named after legendary NFL coaches: Bill Walsh, Mike Ditka, Chuck Noll and Don Shula
The four No. 1 seeds are the 1972 Miami Dolphins, 1978 Pittsburgh Steelers, 1985 Chicago Bears and the 1989 San Francisco 49ers.
Among the first-round match-ups: 2004 Philadelphia Eagles vs. 1985 Bears, 2011 Green Bay Packers vs. the undefeated 1972 Dolphins, the 2007 New York Giants vs. the 1982 Washington Redskins and the 1968 New York Jets vs. the 1998 Denver Broncos.
Four clubs have six entries apiece: Dallas, Green Bay, Pittsburgh and San Francisco. The 1990s tops all decades with 16 teams, ahead of the 14 from the 1980s, according to the NFL.
The results will be updated at NFL.com and the final results will be unveiled at NFL.com and NFL Network.
The round-by-round voting schedule on NFL.com (voting ends at 5 PM ET on the final day of each round):
Round 1: March 12-15
Round 2: March 16-18
Sweet 16: March 19-20
Elite 8: March 23-25
Semifinals: March 26-28
Championship: March 29-30

Kitchen tasks are often easier when you have high quality cookware, tools and utensils to guide your culinary instincts. When it comes to kitchen cutlery, you want the sharpest, most durable blades so you can chop, slice and pare with ease. At Sears, you can buy cutlery from top brands such as Chicago Cutlery, KitchenAid and Ginsu.
Whether you're stocking a new kitchen with a complete Chicago Cutlery knife set, or you want to replace your old cutting board with a new bamboo board or color-coded plastic cutting mats, you're sure to find the kitchen cutlery essentials that you need for your home. Other fundamental knife accessories include kitchen shears, electric knives and carving sets. Whether you're carving a large turkey for a family holiday or cutting the fat from a pork roast, kitchen cutlery offers an easy way to carve and cut.
A dull blade can be just as dangerous as a sharp blade, so keep your knife set in top notch condition by regularly sharpening the blades. In addition to the vast selection of kitchen cutlery that you'll find at Sears, you can also pick out the perfect knife sharpener to maintain the sharpest blades. Instead of using a standard utensil organizer, storing your knife set in a knife block or knife case will protect the blades from damage while not in use. Make sure you have everything you need to handle each kitchen task with cutlery sets and more.

this project may be interesting as an easy demonstration of "IO Callback function (1) scheduling" performed into FIFO way, extremely easy to understand and extremely short in his implementation: it sounds good for arduino =P
Hi, nice effort! I've seen the code - and let me kindly ask you following:1. why we need to deal with float in: //set the initial value of the counter depending on the prescaler _starter = 256 - (int)((float)F_CPU * 0.001 / prescaler);would not be better to do it as #define _starter 256-F_CPU/1000/prescaleror something like that?
2. the clock limitation (1,4,8,16MHz) - that is related to point 1. only, so when I'll find a good _starter (in order to get 1ms timer interrupt) I can use ie 22.11MHz as well, I guess
3. would it be possible to use it outside the arduino environment as well?P.
const uint8_t ONETIME=2;const uint8_t SCHEDULED=1;
This is really helpful! however the ONETIME keyword does not work. I'm starting task1 to happen every two seconds. Task2 is onetime and I restart is each time task1 happens. However, task2 happens continually.Jim
Is LeOS able to keep up with realtime, does it have any kind of RTC feature?[/li][/list]
Does LeOS have limitations in terms of number of tasks it can manage?[/li][/list]

ST. LOUIS, Mo. – The Brandeis University volleyball team dropped its final four University Athletic Association matches this weekend at Washington University in St. Louis. The Judges dropped to 9-17 overall and 1-6 in the UAA. Brandeis has earned the seventh seed at the 2013 UAA Championships, which will be hosted at the Gosman Athletic Center on Nov. 8-9.
The Judges were swept, 3-0, by Carnegie Mellon, Case Western Reserve and fourth-ranked Emory before taking a set in a 3-1 loss to NYU.
Brandeis's best match came in their final showdown of the tournament against the rival Violets on Sunday. The Judges owned a 17-14 lead in the first set before NYU scored 11 of the final 13 points to take a 25-19 victory. In the second set , NYU trailed 5-2 early before rattling off six straight points to take the lead. The Violets' edge would be as large as nine points at 17-8 before the Judges made a run of their own, scoring eight of the next nine points. The Judges used terrific serving to get back into the set, with a pair of aces from sophomore setter Maggie Swenson (E. Lyme, Conn./E. Lyme) and rookie right-side Jessica Kaufman (Tucson, Ariz./Cienaga) in the run. Junior OH Liz Hood (Albuquerque, N.M./Albuquerque Acad.) had two kills and NYU had two errors as the Judges fought back. Unfortunately, they could not get over the hump, falling 25-20, in the second.
In the third set, the Violets got off to a quick start, opening up a 4-0 lead. The squads traded points on all but one of the next 15 points played, giving NYU a 12-7 edge. The Violets let Brandeis back into the set at that point with errors on five points in a row, tying it at 12-12. NYU bounced back with a 5-1 run, forcing Brandeis coach Michelle Kim to call a timeout. Her charges responded, rattling off five in a row of their own on a kill from sophomore Summer Koop (Long Valley, N.J./West Morris Central), two by Si-Si Hensley (Fullerton, Calif./Troy) and two Elsie Bernaiche (Plantsville, Conn./Southington) service aces, the last of which put Brandeis ahead, 18-17. Once again the teams traded points for a stretch of 10 out of 11 points, but a Hood kill gave the Judges a set point at 24-22. NYU answered with a pair of kills by Allie Williams, but Koop gave Brandeis their second set point, and the Judges forced an NYU error to take the third set, 26-24. Unfortunately, the Judges were unable to get their game on track for the fourth set, as NYU scored 13 points in a row to turn an early 3-2 deficit into a 15-3 lead, and the Violets rolled to a 25-7 victory to close out the match.
The tight first three sets saw Brandeis hit at a .213 clip (38 K, 13 E, 113 TA) and NYU at .228 (42 K, 14 E, 123 TA), but in the fourth, the Violets converted 15 of 34 attacks with just four errors, while Brandeis had just two kills and three errors in 25 attempts.
For the match, Hood was Brandeis's team-high with 16 kills and a .364 percentage. Bernaiche had 27 digs and four service aces, while Swenson added 32 assists and nine digs.
Earlier in the day on Sunday, the Judges had the misfortune to run into an Emory team coming off its first UAA loss of the tournament, to Chicago the night before. The fourth-ranked Eagles defeated Brandeis, 25-6, 25-15, 25-11. Koop was the standout for Brandeis, finishing with seven kills – one shy of her career-high – and a .500 hitting percentage (7 K, 1 E, 12 TA). Bernaiche's 13 digs were a match-high.
On Saturday afternoon, the Judges fell to Carnegie Mellon (25-15, 25-16, 25-12) and Case Western Reserve (25-20, 25-19, 25-19). Against CMU, Hood had 10 kills, second-most in the match, while Hensley's 14 digs led all players. Hensley also swung at a .375 clip (6 K, 0 E, 16 TA). Swenson tied for match-high honors with 25 assists. In their loss to Case – who is coached by Karen Chambers Farrell '93 – Hood led Brandeis with nine kills, while Hensley had eight and another match-high with 14 digs. The Judges owned a 16-12 lead in the second set against the Spartans, but Case closed on a 13-3 string. The third set was tied at 14-14 before Case ended with 11 of the final 16 points.
Brandeis returns to action next weekend at the Hall of Fame Invitational at Mount Holyoke and Smith Colleges. Their schedule is yet to be determined.

Do you have a picture of the label???It is quite a good piece and i would gladly own it. Most likely late 60's to early 70's by the shape and colour. Need a base shot as well. Definitely by one of the better companies.

Dozens of people protested outside the Armenian consulate in Glendale Friday, demanding that a former member of Parliament in the Armenian capitol of Yerevan be prosecuted for his alleged role in the beating death of an army doctor.
The beating of 33-year-old army doctor Vahe Avetyan and three colleagues June 17 at a restaurant has sparked worldwide outrage among members of the Armenia diaspora, particularly after Avetyan died of his injuries weeks later.
The owner of the restaurant, Ruben Hayrapetyan, resigned his parliamentary post earlier this month amid the ensuing fallout and accusations that the perpetrators of the beating were his current or former bodyguards. Now that he's lost his government immunity, protesters want him prosecuted, although police in Yerevan have said he was not at the restaurant at the time.
According to local media reports, he released a statement apologizing for the brutal attack at his restaurant.
"I can't forgive myself and I don't know how to ask for forgiveness," Hayrapetyan said in his resignation letter, published in the Armenian Weekly. "I would have given anything to be there on that ominous night, to grab the fists that hit those young men, and to stop this tragedy that stole a life, destroyed families, and left children orphaned."
The demonstration in Glendale on Friday was the second in as many weeks.

Call for media: reacting to threat of asteroid impacts
ESA PR 24-2010 How would the world react to the threat of an asteroid impact? The media are invited to meet top-level experts at ESA's space operations centre in Germany on 29 October to find out more.
Journalists are invited to Darmstadt, Germany for a briefing at the end of a workshop on Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) and the dangers they present.
The high-level Mission Planning and Operations Group (MPOG) workshop includes astronauts and space scientists. It is the latest in a series organised to report to the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space and includes representatives from major space agencies, NASA astronauts, the Secure World Foundation and the Association of Space Explorers.
"The workshop series is focusing on plans and recommendations for global coordination and response in the event that an asteroid or other object is found to pose an impact threat to Earth," says workshop coordinator Detlef Koschny from ESA.
The three-day meeting is being hosted by ESA at the European Space Operations Centre, Darmstadt, Germany.
Plausible asteroid impact and timing scenarios
Participants will review the latest information and findings from asteroid and NEO research worldwide, and receive briefings on activities of the Inter-Agency Debris Coordination Committee and ESA's Space Situational Awareness Preparatory Programme. They will also consider two theoretical but plausible impact scenarios and analyse them in detail in order to identify the best strategy for global response.
In addition to senior managers from ESA, NASA, the Russian space agency Roscosmos and numerous national space agencies, participants will include:
- Rusty Schweickart, Apollo 9 astronaut and Head of ASE's Committee on NEOs
- Thomas Jones, NASA astronaut on four Space Shuttle flights and a long-time asteroid impact researcher
- Brian Weeden, Technical Advisor at the Secure Word Foundation, researcher in space debris and collision issues and related space policy.
- Sergio Camacho, space science researcher, former Director of the UN Office for Outer Space Affairs and now Secretary General of the Regional Centre for Space Science and Technology Education for Latin America and the Caribbean.
The workshop will define future planning tasks and studies for the Group that will later be merged with findings of other experts to create a final report to the UN committee. Such a report will recommend how to react to an impact threat.
Under ESA's Space Situational Awareness Preparatory Programme, Europe is acquiring the capability to watch for objects and natural phenomena that could harm satellites in orbit or facilities on the ground.

Soap & Glory, the brand who have made much loved body care products are launching a full colour cosmetics range! I am a Sopa & Glory fan and their make up looks very cute indeed. Some of the products already exist, so it's the foundation/base product, lipstick and eyeshadows that are the most exciting!
The products launched in selected Boots stores on the 5th of October.
Here's a overview of the new releases:
Kick Ass Concealer:
A 3 piece camouflaging kit (£10)- ok this is super cool, it has a under eye concealer, a 'on the spot' complexion concealer and setting powder! Comes in 2 shades, light and medium:
There's a new foundation called Show Good Face, a 2 in 1 energising foundation and primer. Have you noticed the products are 'fix its' or are dual purpose? It also has a SPF15 and 'retinol-mimicking' extract. Comes in 6 shades, Fairest of them all, A Good Light, A Nude Peach, Naked in the Shade, Honey and Golden Tan (£11):
For reference, I imagine at NC30/35 I'd be a Naked in the Shade or Golden Tan.
There are 3 new lipsticks in Naked Beige, Perfect Day and Red My Lips – they contain Vitamin E, Shea Butter and Monoi Butter.
It's all about prime in 2 shades in Bright Light (day shade) and Smokey Eye Primer (a evening grey) – it also helps with puffiness (£8):
The Daily Double – double ended eye pencil with long wearing colour in 3 variations, Fresh Cream/Green light – (pictured), Ultra Violet/Plum Plum and Velvet Pink/Brownie (£8.50):
Smoulder Khol Black Eye Pencil in Superblack – this is waterproof and I am guessing it is like the Avon Gel Eyeliners in pencil form (Buttery smooth!) for £5:
Supercat Black Eyeliner Pen with Gloss Fix – in Carbon Black Extreme (£6):
Thick & Fast Super Volume Mascara – no flaking or clumps (£10):
Finally, Soap & Glory have three four colour palettes (£10) each – they look JUST like MAC 4 pan palettes by the way! They come in various textures, mattes and metallic. There is Off the Wall Flowers, What's Nude and Smokey Dokey:
Also on sale are some existing products:
Sexy Mother Pucker in 5 shades, Clear, Candy Gloss, Pink Apricot, Yummy Plum and Half Naked (£9 each).
Marvellips As Good As Nude (reviewed here) (£8)
Cheekmate Cheek & Lip Stain (£8)
Sext Mother Pucker Extreme Plump XL (£10)
Arch De Triumph (£8)
Love at first Blush, Solar Powder Bronzer and Glow All Out (highlighter) all £11 each
Trick and Treatment Under Eye Concealer (£8).
I am quite excited, and you know my preference for eye make up so on my wishlist is:
Lid Stuff in What's Nude and Smokey Dopey
It's About Prime in both colours
The Daily Double in Fresh Cream/Greenlight
Show Good Face Foundation in Naked in the Shade
Super Colour Fabulipsick in Perfect Day
Smoulder Kohl Pencil
Boots 3 for 2 anyone?!
What do you think of the collection?!
