This spring, not every girls lacrosse game that was expected to be a battle royal has lived up to its advance billing, but last Thursday's stick spectacle at Germantown Friends kept the rapt attention of spectators right up until the final horn.
The host Tigers and the visiting Patriots of Germantown Academy were tied eight times, including a 4-4 halftime draw. In the final seconds, GFS had several opportunities to level the score a ninth time, but GA hung on for a 13-12 victory, handing the Tigers their first loss of the 2012 campaign.
After the teams went neck-and-neck through the first half, there was a little burst of offense for each side. Initially falling behind in the second period, the Tigers strung three goals together to go up 9-8, and later the Patriots deposited four-in-a-row for a 13-10 advantage. Germantown Friends struck twice in the final 97 seconds to cap off the barnburner.
Within the Friends Schools League GFS remained 6-0 following the non-league tilt, and owned an overall record of 16-1. The Tigers are the top seed for the FSL tournament, and will tackle number four Moorestown Friends in the semifinals this week. GA, which has amped up its level of play over the last month, improved to 14-5 overall. The Pats stayed put at 6-3 in the Inter-Ac, with three games still on the docket.
Iris Williamson of GFS and Brooke Kiley of GA are the all-time leading scorers at their respective schools, and they will play together in college at the University of Pennsylvania. Throughout the season, both teams have featured balanced attacks and have not had to rely exclusively on their preeminent seniors. Another GA upperclassman, Kelli Stack, came on strong to lead all scorers in the contest, with five goals.
"Kelli Stack had a fabulous game," said Patriots coach Ginny Hofmann, "and that was important because we knew they were really going to be marking Brooke, just as we were going to mark Iris. Fortunately, our scoring this year has been pretty spread out."
Tigers mentor Katie Bergstrom Mark observed "It was an awesome game to be part of, and it was refreshing to see that defensive effort out there. It was a clean, well-played defensive game on both sides."
There were no yellow cards given out during the afternoon, unusual in such an intense conflict.
GFS junior defender Sophie Mercuris converted on a free position to kick of the scoring in the opening minute, then GA's Stack scooped a ground ball in the defensive end and romped all the way down to tie the score. The Tigers took the subsequent draw and Williamson knifed through the middle for the first of her three goals, then with 21:27 still to play in the first period the Pats pulled even again. Taking a feed from sophomore Cooper Hall, junior Caroline Haynie sank a sidearm shot to make it 2-2.
That score stayed on the board for almost nine minutes, and in large part that was due to GA freshman goalie Allie Carrigan. She turned back a number of Tiger shots, most of them aimed at the top corners. The hosts logged a lot of ball possession, partly due to poor transition defense by the Patriots. Several times, GFS was able to make midfield connections to players who didn't have a marking opponent within 20 yards.
Carrigan, the GA keeper, is a field hockey forward in the fall, and she is used to playing club softball the rest of the year. On the diamond she's a catcher, but instead of trying out for that role this spring in GA's upper school program, she decided to add some variety to her routine by taking up a lacrosse stick for the first time. The move has paid off for GA throughout the season and particularly last Thursday, when the rookie registered a dozen saves.
"She's done a great job for us," Hofmann attested. "I think as a catcher she just has a keen eye for a ball coming in at her."
Hofmann's club went ahead for the first time when an entry pass from senior Hadley Hall (Cooper's sister) found Stack in close with her back to the goal. Stack spun and shot in the same motion to make it 3-2 with 12:42 to go before halftime. Six minutes later, Williamson darted left to right in front of the crease and tied it up for the Tigers. Stack completed a hat trick for GA, then with 1:39 on the clock GFS sophomore Schuyler Nissen cashed in on a free position to even the tally once more.
At the end of the half GA's Hanna Bogorowski (a sophomore transfer from Mount St. Joseph Academy) also had a free-po opportunity, but GFS senior keeper Lauren Shinn made her fourth save to foil the attempt. The count was 4-4 at the intermission, and when play resumed GFS had sophomore Dana Schulman (four saves) in the goal cage.
Another young player for the Tigers, freshman Annie Tyson, stepped up on offense, netting three goals and an assist in the second half.
"She's good at coming up with ground balls near the goal," noted Bergstrom Mark, "and once she gets the ball she's able to move the goalie across the cage and find the corners. She has great composure for a freshman, and she's earned the trust of everyone on the team."
GA took the draw at the dawn of the second half, and had its first shot stopped by Schulman. Soon after that, Kiley tickled the twine on a solo effort, then GA scored in transition to go up 6-4, with a pass from Haynie setting up the goal by Hadley Hall. Another Schulman save kept the Pats from gaining a three-point edge, and Tigers rallied to even things up at 6-6 on free-position shots by Tyson and Williamson.
The next two markers, both by GA, also resulted from restarts. After Kiley was fouled, she passed to Haynie coming around the crease on the left for the visitors' seventh goal, and then Stack stuck a high shot directly off of a free-position.
Now down 8-6 with 14:44 remaining, the Tigers responded with a three-point run in a little over two minutes. Isabella Didio, a senior who plans to play both lacrosse and field hockey at M.I.T., came from behind the cage to jam in a goal.
Next, GA's Carrigan ventured a little too far upfield on a clear, and when the Pats turned the ball over the Tigers' Tyson scored into the open net. The Patriot keeper stopped the next GFS shot, an attempt by Didio, but from out to the right of the arc Tigers senior Annie Morrissey sent a pass in to Tyson on the crease, and she scored her third goal of the day.
With 12:12 on the clock, GFS had moved ahead, 9-8. The score seesawed up to 10-9, with junior Lizzie Tillger assisting a GA goal by Kiley, and the home team responding with a Didio shot set up by Tyson.
GA's Hofmann wasn't worried by the modest deficit.
"All season long, one thing we've been able to do is score." she said. "We feel we can get back in any game if we fall behind, as long as we can get the ball."
In fact, the 10-9 tally only held up for 15 seconds. GA pocketed the draw and Stack rounded out her five-goal day thanks to a pass from Bogorowski. With 7:10 left to play the Patriots went ahead for good, as Tillger got the ball to Kiley, and she split the pipes from just outside the arc on the right. The next scoring play began with an interception by Cooper Hall and ended with a free-position shot by Tillger.
The clock showed 4:16 to go and GFS called time-out, now behind 12-10. The Tigers captured the following draw but had their next shot snuffed by Carrigan. A few minutes later, GA's Bogorowski cut to the crease and received the ball from Tillger, scoring with 1:49 showing.
The Pats were leading by three, but they had a tough time maintaining possession down the stretch. After their 13th goal, the draw went to Mercuris of GFS, and quickly the Tigers' Didio tightened the score to 13-11 with 1:37 to go. After that, GA won the draw but immediately committed a turnover. Mercuris carried the ball in from the left wing and slipped it to senior Hannah Drake, who brought the home team back within one, 13-12, with 1:11 still to play.
"We had a few passes that were off the mark, and I'm sure some of that was owing to the excitement of the game," Hofmann said.
The next draw went to the hosts' Morrissey and soon after that a free position in the arc was awarded to Williamson, but her low shot was saved by the visitors' Carrigan. The Patriots tried to clear the ball up the right side, but turned it over out-of-bounds. Mercuris again put the ball in play and it ended up in Didio's stick near the arc. A double-team by Kiley and Cooper Hall jarred the ball loose and prevented one more shot by the Tigers just before the final horn. The Patriots had survived.
Finishing the game with scoring hat tricks were Kiley of GA, and Didio, Tyson, and Williamson of Germantown Friends.

OAKLAND — The BART Coliseum station was closed for more than an hour Friday morning due to a bomb threat investigation, resulting in major delays on the Fremont, Daly City and Dublin-Pleasanton lines, authorities said.
The station closed at about 7:40 a.m. after an unknown person reported the threat, BART spokesman Jim Allison said.
At 8:48 a.m. trains began moving through the Coliseum station. Passengers were permitted to board trains there, but not allowed to exit trains after officers cleared an area at the station, Allison said.
Then at 9:02 a.m., after officers swept the entire station, all trains were back in service.

Egypt Hit by Largest Protests Since Mubarak
Egypt has been hit by the largest antigovernment protests since former leader Hosni Mubarak was ousted two years ago. This time the focus is on President Mohammed Morsi, who is being blamed for the country's economic ills and trying to "Islamize" Egyptian culture.

The National Hockey League is coming to Dodger Stadium in 2014.
The Kings will play the Ducks next winter in a historic regular-season game on the Dodgers' home field, according to a source with knowledge of the league's plans.
The NHL is planning to stage four outdoor games next year, including the annual Winter Classic between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings on Jan. 1. The other three games haven't been formally announced as the league hasn't finalized its 2014 schedule.
The Kings-Ducks game would be one of two played on "Hockey Day in America." The NHL also is targeting Yankee Stadium as a host site between two New York-area teams. Another outdoor game, the Heritage Classic, would feature two Canadian teams on "Hockey Day in Canada."
Dodger Stadium has hosted rock concerts, motorcycle races and a papal mass, but never a hockey game. A regular-season outdoor game, strictly the domain of teams from the Northeast and Canada to this point, would be new to the Kings and Ducks.
The Kings did participate in a preseason outdoor game in Las Vegas in September, 1991. Held on a makeshift rink in a parking lot outside Caesar's Palace, with a reported game-time temperature of 85 degrees, the Kings beat the New York Rangers 5-2. The ice was littered with grasshoppers by the second period, but even that couldn't deter a novel concept from taking root.
"We had the biggest salesperson the game has ever known in Wayne Gretzky with us. I think it was a smart business decision to make it happen," said Kings color commentator Jim Fox, who called the game on television. "I remember looking out from our vantage point and seeing Caesar's Palace and the sign right there.
"I don't know how many times in your life you see something that surreal and it's happening. The backdrop looked fake and it's so unusual."
The same could be said for a hockey game at Dodger Stadium, with its sweeping views of the San Gabriel Mountains in one direction and the downtown Los Angeles skyline in another.
Ice-making techniques have improved since 1991, and the NHL has warmed up to moving its games outdoors. In 2003, the league held its first regular-season outdoor game in Edmonton. Five years later, the first Winter Classic was staged in Orchard Park, N.Y., and a New Year's tradition was born.
The source said the NHL is convinced the typically warm weather at Dodger Stadium shouldn't cause any issues with the ice.
The average maximum temperature in downtown Los Angeles in February was 67.3 degrees from 1906 to 2013, according to the Western Regional Climate Center. The average minimum temperature was 49.5.
The 2011 Winter Classic in Pittsburgh began with a game-time temperature of 51.7 degrees. That game was postponed by seven hours because of rain, and the playing surface drew poor reviews from players.
There's some precedent in terms of the teams and the weather, but it's still a big shift in thinking for NHL commissioner Gary Bettman.
As recently as January 2011, Bettman said the Kings and Ducks might only "get considered for the possibility of participating as a visiting team" in an outdoor game in a cooler climate.
Hockey Day in America took place Feb. 17 this year. Next year's date probably will be earlier because of the 2014 Winter Olympics.
The NHL has allowed its players to participate in the Games every four years since 1998. If that trend continues the league will take a sabbatical, roughly from Feb. 12-23, to allow its Olympians to go to Sochi, Russia.
Wrigley Field (2009), Fenway Park (2010) and Citizens Bank Park (2011) are the only Major League Baseball stadiums to previously host the game. Dodger Stadium doesn't typically hold its first baseball game until the final week of March, when the Dodgers and Angels meet each other in the annual preseason "Freeway Series."
Neither the Kings nor the Ducks have formally confirmed their participation in the game, and Dodgers president Stan Kasten declined comment after initial reports surfaced Sunday. The official announcement could come as soon as the NHL playoffs begin April 30.
"The origination of the outdoor game is to get back to the roots of hockey," Fox said. "I grew up playing outdoors. The next generation probably didn't, so that's a celebration of the history and the roots of the game.
"It's not to do a spectacle. It's to pay respect to the past."

The theme for the sixth Annual Blue Ridge Bookfest is "Tell Us your Story." To that end, the program committee has invited many authors to share their published works with an emphasis on personal stories.

The theme for the sixth Annual Blue Ridge Bookfest is "Tell Us your Story." To that end, the program committee has invited many authors to share their published works with an emphasis on personal stories. One of the speakers for the April 25-26 event is Bill Ramsey, a local writer and community volunteer.
Ramsey has spent several years working with a young woman, Angela Leigh Tucker, to frame her story — "Me Now — Who Next?"
Tucker was a successful public relations specialist in New York City in early 2008. By late 2008, she was a patient in traumatic brain injury (TBI) rehabilitation unit trying to find her way back to life.
We are introduced to Tucker as a young, successful professional woman who had recently married and with her husband purchased a new home in the suburbs of New York City. She led the life many of us wish for our children. Until July 31, 2008.
The young newlywed couple, returning from a baseball game and a fun evening, were crushed in their car along the Major Deegan Expressway. A fast-moving tractor-trailer hurtled cross the concrete median and crushed their SUV.
In his narrative, Ramsey asks us, "How long is the blink of an eye?" The cameras along the expressway captured the accident. It was instantaneous. The two young people "never knew what hit them."
Tucker's husband, Rich, was dead at the scene. Tucker was pried from the wreckage and helicoptered to Westchester Medical Center. In the chaos of the emergency scene, Tucker's identity was difficult to secure. In addition to lacking personal information, her phone was lost, keeping family and friend access at bay. Because her friends began to panic when she didn't appear at work the following day, they did some detective work and finally determined that their colleague was, indeed, the victim of a horrible crash headlined in the newspaper.
Throughout this book, Ramsey recounts incident after incident where Tucker's friends, family and colleagues worked together to support her efforts. From the moment she was found in a coma in the hospital through her years of rehabilitation — some of that time spent with family in Hendersonville — Tucker has been assisted by many people.
Once she was able, she and Ramsey journeyed to New York to meet many of the people who had a part in her survival and recuperation. They talked with the rescue personnel, the medical evacuation helicopter pilot and crew. They met with medical staff and therapists. Many of these professionals humbly responded that they had only been doing their jobs. A job! Tucker could not seem to find enough words to thank them.
Throughout the narrative, Ramsey teaches us about traumatic brain injury and the long road to a state of physical and mental independence for patients. As he tells us, brain injuries are at the top of the list of unexpected and sudden health crises.
"For those who suffer brain injuries and survive, life is changed. … Even with timely treatment, a brain injury may result in long-term consequences, including vision problems, headaches, diminished sense of taste or smell, ringing in the ears, dizziness, confusion, forgetfulness, cognitive and personality disorders, balance problems and fatigue."
Understanding the challenges to a TBI patient makes Tucker's story uplifting and heartwarming. On every page, Ramsey paints a picture of a brave, hard-working, optimistic young woman. This statement in her own words captures Tucker: "I refuse to believe that this was an 'accident.' God is not that cruel. God has a bigger plan, and I anticipate the adventure that lies ahead."
Meet Tucker and Ramsey as presenters at the April 25-26 Blue Ridge Bookfest. Please check our website, www.blueridgebookfest.org. As the date nears, look for our final schedule of presenters and exhibitors. "Me Now — Who Next?" is available at Amazon.com.

Green groups have vowed to fight a decision by the federal environment minister to allow a controversial open-cut mine to be built in Tasmania's Tarkine wilderness.
After two years of assessment, Environment Minister Tony Burke on Tuesday gave the final tick of approval to Shree Minerals to mine for iron ore in north-west Tasmania, with strict conditions.
The government argues the Nelson Bay River mine will bring jobs and economic growth to the region, and the decision was welcomed by the some local politicians and the Australian Workers Union.
But conservationists warn the mine will be built in Australia's largest tract of temperate rainforest, a wilderness area recommended for heritage status and home to the endangered Tasmanian devil.
"It's a massive betrayal of the Tarkine," campaign co-ordinator of the Tarkine National Coalition Scott Jordan told AAP on Tuesday.
"He could have been the minister that saved the Tarkine, or he could have been the minister that gave the devil a fighting chance."
Mr Burke said he was satisfied the 29 approval conditions meant the mine would be strictly built and run under national environment laws.
Shree would have to ensure there were no "unacceptable impacts" on listed threatened species and their habitats by meeting a number of requirements.
Mine vehicles would have to follow speed limits and drive at daytime to avoid killing threatened species, and staff would be required to undergo environmental awareness training.
They must report all deaths of threatened species from road kill and post these numbers on their website, paying extra compensation if more are killed than anticipated.
The Australian Greens said it was "laughable" the prevention measures would have any impact when the project would see a 1km long and 225m deep mine cut into the earth.
Tasmanian Greens senator Peter Whish-Wilson said the hematite and magnetite project also threatened the region's long-term economic activity like tourism.
But the AWU called it a victory for people power and proof a balance could be struck between conservation and development in the Tarkine.
Labor MP Sid Sidebottom, whose electorate of Braddon encompasses the Tarkine region, said the mine was expected to create up to 125 new jobs and contribute much to the region's economy.
Tasmania's north-west had important environmental values that needed to be protected, but this can be done in conjunction with sustainable economic development, he added.

If the team decides as a team that they wish to use there life pool in that way to win, then it is fine with me. It isn't a bug, IMHO, it is taking control of ALL the resources you have to win the map instead of using lives willy nilly.
It's okay if we disagree, but a thief team that thinks in the terms I've expressed is more likely to win. Once they set self imposed rules aside and see each and every thing they are given as a resource they are well on the way to coming up with new and unbeatable strategies.

Coach Lee Chadwick and the Lady Buckaroos finished their basketball season one day short of their preseason goal, (to play all four days at state) after a second loss at the girls state 1A tournament in Richfield.
The Monticello gals got a bad case of cold shooting, along with the flu which ravaged several players, all of which ended up shortening their stay at state after losses to Panguitch and Manila and a win over Milford.
Against the Panguitch Bobcats, the eventual fifth place winner, the Bucks came out like icicles, while the Bobcats were the exact opposite.
Missing their first 12 shots while watching Panguitch make eight of their first 12 shots, the Lady Bucks found themselves down 16-0 after one quarter. The Bobcats kept up the onslaught, at one point in the game they had made 27 of 35 shots. That's 77 percent, rending the 60-32 final result explicable. Abby Chadwick got going in the second half to pace the Bucks with 17 points, including two treys.
In the consolation round, the Bucks found themselves matched up against Milford, a team they lost to in December in overtime.
This time, it was the Lady Bucks who could hardly miss, and their tight man-to-man defense kept the Tigers out of the basket as they raced to a 16-4 lead halfway through the second quarter.
Behind Chadwick's 11 points, Brittany Keith's eight and Loren Randall and Jamie Keyes' seven, the Lady Bucks maintained the lead, surviving one more day 42-28.
But it was other woes against Manila on Friday. The ladies from Monticello High shot ok, they just couldn't get any shots.
Turning the ball over the first five times they got the ball allowed Manila to jump to an 8-0 lead. The Lady Bucks couldn't get a shot off until the 3:30 mark of the first quarter, giving Manila a lead the Lady Bucks could never overcome, though they got within three points numerous times during the course of the game.
Manila finally triumphed 45-35, ending the Lady Bucks season at 14-9. Chadwick finished off her stellar career with 20 points, including five treys and three more points when fouled while shooting a three.
Binary Buck boys
The Buckaroo boys of coach Rhett Maughan continued their march to the state tournament with three impressive wins in the past week and a half.
The Bucks avenged another of their three losses when they traveled to Bayfield, CO to best the Bobcats, 72-23. Ten Buckaroos scored with three hitting double figures, Devin Wright (20), Dallin Duncan (17), and Cory Young (11), as the Bucks blitzed the Bobcats.
Against Pinnacle, the Bucks had eight Bucks score and three in double figures, Young (14), Duncan (12), and Gunnar Hollingsworth (10), as the Bucks also doubled up Pinnacle, 58-29.
Then, the Monument Valley Cougars crumbled under the Buckaroo assault and succumbed 74-38 as nine Bucks scored and four hit double figures, Duncan (26), Young (13), Wright and Jake Duncan (10).
Dallin Duncan had a double double with 14 rebounds to go with his 26 points. Young flirted with a triple double with eight rebounds and seven assists, along with his 13 points.
And are you noticing the number of points the Bucks are allowing? Still number one in the state, only giving up 40 points a game. The Bucks final regular season game is this week at Green River.
Did you hear that big sigh of relief coming from Blanding? Both the Lady and Boy Broncos made it through the infamous play-in game at Snow College Friday and Saturday with gutty victories. Not in several years have both teams made it past this annual 2A ritual.
The 14-6 Lady Broncos of coach Justin Moon pulled out a hard fought 44-37 victory over the Parowan Rams. Behind Kelsi Meyer's 22 points, the Lady Broncos used a strong fourth quarter to pull away from a tie game to earn the trip to the 2A state tournament. The reward for winning, a matchup against the number one ranked and 21-1 Enterprise Wolves. Wolves are endangered, you know.
Coach Wade Mortensen's boys jumped on their opponent, the boy version of the Enterprise Wolves, right from the opening tip and raced to a 71-61 win. The Blanding boys built a huge 23-10 lead at the first quarter mark and cruised from there. Enterprise made it a little interesting, cutting a 17 point third quarter lead to six in the fourth quarter but the Broncos prevailed.
Tyler Nielson and Logan Meyer led the charge from the guard line with 21 and 19 points respectively. Cameron Shumway added 12.
Next up for the Broncos is 17-5 Parowan, who are ranked just behind the #4 ranked Broncos in #5.

It gives a ratio of what should be protective, but every individual is different. I'm not trying to start a debate here , as I am a fan of titers, but just making the point that the titers are not infallible.

BullyLady wrote:There's no age, but you wouldn't want to titer unless the vaccination has been given in the first place, and there would be no reason to do it earlier than a year after the vaccine was given.
mnp13 wrote:I would disagree with this. One of the women in my dog club does not vaccinate her dogs for anything, however, she brings them around freshly vaccinated dogs. She said that vaccinated dogs "shed" the disease for a certain amount of time after the vaccination is given. I have no idea if there is medical proof for this, but she has titered her dogs and all of them show immunity to diseases they have never gotten a vaccination for.
I am not saying I agree with this protocol, I think it is very risky, but I'm just sharing what someone I know does.
blabsforbullies wrote:I know of no medical or scientific data/proof that any disease is shed in the feces such that someone else could gain protection from it. My guess, although it is only a guess, is that the dog may have some protection from maternal antibodies for some period of time, or there is another explanation that we aren't privy to (maybe the dog was actually exposed to a dog that had a mild form of the disease, or it had a mild form of a disease...there has to be some reasonable explanation ). Seriously, dogs do not shed anything that is going to provide immunity or else we would all be doing it. It doesn't aerosolize, so it cannot be transmitted that way (most don't survive being outside the body anyway). And if ingested, it would be degraded by the stomach contents. I'm not doubting what she told you, but the science just isn't there, and you are right, it is a very risky, to say the least, protocol.

I only brought it up because her dogs do titer for the diseases and they have never had shots.

- why don't (competent) users build android from source as a last resort for updates?
- do the android sources (or the mainline kernel) include open kernel drivers for most phone hardware, or not?
- do the android sources include a kernel, the GNU user land, a build configuartion, etc, or are they not really a complete OS or ready to build?
- if not, where do people actually get android for a particular phone (besides cyanogenmod which doesn't support many phones)?

We're available 24/7 to discuss treatment options.
Deep tissue hyperthermia is the use of heat in combination with radiation therapy or chemotherapy, to treat certain tumors deep in the pelvic or abdominal regions of the body. When cells in the body are exposed to higher than normal temperatures, changes take place inside the cells. These changes can make the cells more susceptible to radiation therapy or chemotherapy treatment.
Deep tissue hyperthermia is FDA-approved to treat cervical cancer in conjunction with radiation therapy. Deep tissue hyperthermia is also being investigated in conjunction with radiation therapy or chemotherapy for the treatment of other abdominal and pelvic-area tumors.
Deep tissue hyperthermia is used to reach tumors that are located more than 3 cm under the skin surface. Prior to the procedure, a CT scan is performed to precisely locate the tumor area. Temperature probes are used to accurately monitor external and internal temperatures.
A water-filled applicator is then placed over the patient's abdomen and focused electromagnetic energy (radio frequency energy) is directed at the tumor, heating the tumor to a temperature between 104oF to 107oF. Deep tissue hyperthermia dilates blood vessels around the tumor, causing oxygen-carrying red blood cells to spread into the tumor.
If the patient is later exposed to radiation treatment, the radiation reacts with the high levels of oxygen in the tumor, potentially destroying the cancer cells. If the patient receives chemotherapy, the increased blood flow to the tumor area potentially brings more chemotherapy to the tumor. Cancer cells may be weakened or destroyed, while healthy tissue is typically not damaged.
Deep tissue hyperthermia can take up to two hours and is typically performed twice a week for the duration of the radiation or chemotherapy treatment. Side effects are generally minimal.

Chris Brown: 'Is There Such Thing as Loving Two People?'
(NEW YORK) -- Chris Brown is letting the rumors about him and ex-girlfriend Rihanna continue to swirl with a new video in which the R&B star talks about loving two women. Could he mean anyone but Rihanna and his most recent ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran?
In the video, titled "The Real Chris Brown," the singer appears to be on his way home from a club. He warns fans that he is drunk but wants to "be honest." The video also shows shots of Brown, 23, and Rihanna, 24, dancing in a club.
"When you share history with somebody then you tend to fall in love with somebody else, it's kind of difficult," he says in the video. "Is there such thing as loving two people? I don't know. I don't know if that's possible but for me, I feel like that."
He added that he doesn't want to "hurt either" and that he's "not trying to be a player."
The video was posted hours after Brown announced he had officially split with Tran, who he had been dating for several months.
Three hours after the video was online Tran tweeted, "All I'm saying is.. You don't mess with people's genuine feelings. You just don't!"
"Life moves on. ... So let's all," she added.
Rihanna also had a cryptic tweet Thursday evening, saying, "Ain't nobody bidness … But mine and my baby!"
Brown and Rihanna have been spotted together in New York recently, and they exchanged what appeared to be a kiss at the MTV Video Music Awards in September.

There's a head-turning article in the latest edition of the Journal of Family Issues (admittedly something rarely found on Battleland's nightstand) about how well military marriages are faring after 10 years of war.
After all the stories about PTSD, TBI, depression and suicide, it's fair to wonder how the average American military wife-and-husband are getting along. It comes as something of a surprise that – even after a decade of combat and lengthy separations – military families break up less often than their civilian counterparts. How come?
One possible answer is that the population of service members differs from the civilian population in ways that protect marriage but were not controlled in these analyses. For example, the decision to serve in the military may be associated with specific attitudes (e.g., traditionalism, commitment to institutions) that, in addition to motivating service, might also motivate remaining married even when facing lengthy and frequent deployments…Another possibility is that the package of benefits and compensation that the military offers to service members, and to married service members in particular, act as incentives to marrying and barriers to divorcing that comparable civilian marriages lack.

- Week 48. Thanksgiving. What was on your family's Thanksgiving table? Do you serve the same dishes now as your family served in the past?
With bot my parents and my in-laws being local to me, I usually end up with two Thanksgiving Day dinners, which might explain why my pants are a bit tight lately...
This year, we spent Thanksgiving at my in-laws, a large family that has a very traditional Thanksgiving Day dinner. We had turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes & gravy, sweet potatoes, corn, cranberries, dinner rolls, coleslaw and more, all served buffet style to accommodate the 40+ people who typically show up at these family dinners. Another tradition in this family is having finger jello - jello that has extra gelatin so it's very firm, and can be picked up and held in the fingers of small children in squares or whatever shape someone chooses to cut. I don't remember a major family meal without it!
This has been the Thanksgiving Dinner in that family as long as I have been around, currently 29 years.

HSM Completes Acquisition of Summit Seating
December 3, 2013 by RVBusiness · Comments Off on HSM Completes Acquisition of Summit Seating
Hickory, N.C.-based HSM today (Dec. 3) announced the acquisition of Summit Seating Inc., a manufacturer of quality seating products for the recreational vehicle, transit bus, van and other specialty type vehicles for original equipment or aftermarket use. According to a press release, the acquisition is expected to expand HSM's footprint and leadership role in the transportation seating market and will immediately grow both the near- and long-term growth opportunities for the HSM Transportation Solutions business unit.
"We are excited to bring Summit Seating's technology and capabilities to HSM," noted Dave Colburn, HSM president and CEO. "With the combination of our people, products, talents and assets, HSM has the opportunity to accelerate the current momentum and cutting-edge innovation that we are bringing to integrated seating solutions. This strategic move supports our ongoing migration from a components supplier to a provider of integrated solutions with a market-focused strategy."
HSM said it aims to continue the growth it has experienced in transportation seating since acquiring The C.E. White Co. in January, 2013, through "faster innovation, integrated production, increased synergies and unified marketing."
"Providing customer solutions drove this deal and, as a result of this move, Summit and HSM's customer base will see an expanded product offering and services continuing our strong tradition of listening to and meeting our customers' needs," explained Tony Everett, vice president transportation solutions. "Summit's high end products will become more accessible to the growing market needs with HSM's strength and organization behind them."
Over the next 90 days, all product lines within Summit Seating will be integrated into HSM's Transportation Solutions business unit, which is headed by Everett. HSM said that during the transition, Summit Seating customers will continue to receive high-quality service from the Elkhart, Ind.-based company.
"As founders of Summit Seating, Sue and I are excited to see Summit Seating become part of HSM, a world-class operation. It will make us proud to watch the growth that they will bring surpass our original expectations," said Ray Fink, principal, Summit Seating. Fink will remain with the company as director of seating systems-commercial vehicles.

PrimeLuggage necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 40 diseños de 11 diseñadores freelance.
We'd like a fresh re-design of our website. Our current website looks old and needs a fresh design that "pops" and gives our customers a clear idea of what we do, why we are different, and where to click to go next.
Passports and Visas.com
Passports and Visas.com is engaged in securing US passports and travel visas for customers. Our customers by nature are international travelers, mostly corporate/business customers and higher than average income.
The nature of our business is we need to reassure customers that we are professional, available and do a great job. Our home page should accomplish this through good visuals, kudos/testimonials from customers and affiliated organizations. To note, we have been published in the New York Times, USA Today, Washington Post, Forbes.com. I think a competitor of ours http://rushmypassport.com/ a reasonable job of this with logos, etc.
Our logo is blue/gold - if you can work off those colors and/or complimentary colors. Right now, I view our current site as a little dark - want something a little brighter.
Needs to be improved in new design:
1. Right now, I think our website is not simple to use, we have lots of information scattered and it isn't obvious to our customers where to click to go deeper.
2. Web 2.0 style
Deliverables Needed:
1. Home Page
2. Secondary page layout where we could have the "meat" of our website, For use with a page like this one..
Ideally, these would be coded with HTML/CSS.
Logos for your use:
We have our logo here in PSD and EPS format.
Components Needed on Home Page:
1. Top Header Needs the following:
a. links to to Passport Services, Visa Services, Passport Information, About Us
b. display our 800 number 1-800-860-8610
c. something that references Live Help Online, for a live chat facility.
d. Search box.
e Note: This top "mast" will be desinged so it can be used consistently on all pages of the site.
2. Our home page will have a large, inviting, reassuring "banner" (see http://99designs.com/contests/11016/entries/772986 or
for an example). I don't want to stiffle designs, but the picture used should reflect our business at least include a picture of a passport, preferably with a person in an airport or conveying travel (with bags, for instance).
3. Would like a place to put affiliations (like ASTA logo - you can get their new logo here - http://www.travelegypt.com/astasymbol2.jpg
4. Home Page need to incorporate simply what we do, a reference to our pricing, client testimonials, industry affiliations and be VERY clear on what they click to go next. I like a 1-2-3 style of explainng what we do as well (see examples below) and on visahq.com (competitor) above.
Components needed on secondary page.
1. Header and Footer from Home page.
2. and "placeholder" for text like on this page : http://www.passportsandvisas.com/pa…/index.asp
For references of my likes:
Here are some competitors of ours, for reference
Here are some designs that I like
http://99designs.com/contests/7503/…ies/501084 I like the 1-2-3 in this.
http://99designs.com/contests/7503/…ies/501138 another 1-2-3
Let me know if need anything else.
- Simple Design, that doesn't require much thought from customer to go to the next click, obvious what is clickable.
- Clear visual hierarchy
- non-busy website
- see above for more detail
- 2 deliverables (home page and secondary page)
- IF you can code it in HTML/CSS that is a big plus, but not required.
- PSD file with all elements as layers.
- busy website

Surprisingly, my list skewed more old-school.
1) Stern (Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Avengers)
2) Claremont (Uncanny X-Men) or should this be Claremont/Byrne?
3) Waid (Daredevil, Justice League, Hulk, Flash, Kingdom Come)
4) Busiek (Avengers, Thunderbolts, Avengers Forever, Astro City)
5) Vaughan (Runaways, Y the Last Man, Saga)
6) PAD (Young Justice, Hulk, Captain Marvel, X-Factor)
7) Brubaker (Captain America, Batman, Winter Soldier, Secret Avengers)
8) Byrne (FF, Avengers, Alpha Flight)
9) Ellis (Transmetropolitan)
10) Ennis (Preacher, Punisher)
(made a few changes to the list I made originally)
by Stephen Day » Tue Jan 07, 2014 6:36 pmOK, I've narrowed my list down to ten.
Mark Gruenwald, Priest, Gerry Conway, Stan Lee, Ed Brubaker, Steve Englehart, Kurt Busiek, Keith Giffen, Fabian Nicieza, David Liss
It's still going to take me a few days to settle on the final order.
by Stephen Day » Tue Jan 07, 2014 6:38 pmIt's strange to think that a few years ago Geoff Johns would have been a shoe in for me to make my list. My thoughts about him are a far cry from the golden days of JSA.
by BubbaKanoosh » Wed Jan 08, 2014 1:16 pmHoping to get more OH lists in.
by BubbaKanoosh » Wed Jan 08, 2014 1:19 pm
Every writer has a turd story or two under their belt, cancel those all out and just rate the good ones against each other.
by habitual » Wed Jan 08, 2014 6:17 pmI'm starting work on one right now.
by Zechs » Wed Jan 08, 2014 7:34 pm
I categorized the articles. I have soooo much more do of that.
by BubbaKanoosh » Thu Jan 09, 2014 10:26 am
Look forward to it!
by Punchy » Fri Jan 10, 2014 7:11 pmAlan Moore - Simply the greatest comics writer ever, yes, there's all the obvious things, but even his supposedly 'lesser' works like Supreme or the ABC stuff is fantastic.
Brian K Vaughan - Ex Machina, The Runaways and Y: The Last Man are some of the best long-form stories in comics of all time. He took a break, and when he came back, he hadn't missed a beat, both Saga and The Private Eye are fantastic. Hell, with Private Eye, he's revolutionising distribution too!
Brian Michael Bendis - He brought Marvel kicking and screaming into the 20th century. Ultimate Spider-Man, both of them, is consistently amazing, his Daredevil was great, he completely revitalised The Avengers and his X-Men books are refreshing too. His unique dialogue may annoy some people, but hey, at least he has something unique.
Neil Gaiman - Sandman. Nothing else need be said.
Ed Brubaker - The master of crime fiction in comics, part of his greatness comes from his perfect choice of artist, Sean Phillips, they are a great team. Plus, he made Captain America cool, and somehow managed to resurrect Bucky Barnes and not have it suck.
Matt Fraction - I've been a fan since Casanova #1, he just knows how to bring the weird, but can also tell great superhero stories. Hawkeye is changing the way Marvel do stuff, bringing a real 'indepedent' feel to things. A great run on Iron Man, the insanity that is Sex Criminals and more.
Stan Lee/Jack Kirby doing Marvel Method - 100 issues of Fantastic Four that created an entire universe, and more.
Mark Millar - He's not as good now, but his mature reboot of the Avengers with The Ultimates changed comics forever and has influenced pretty much everything. He knows how to write 'big', Civil War may be the best comics event ever. Plus, he has blazed a trail for creator-owned, from Kick-Ass onwards, I think Image have Millar to thank for their boom period, along with the figurehead that is Kirkman.
Frank Miller - I prefer his Daredevil to his Batman, and he's bug-fuck now, but you can't argue against how he (along with Moore) brought a new maturity to comics in the 80s. His art was great too.
James Robinson - He's hit and miss right now, but Starman is one of the greatest superhero comics of all time, and Jack Knight is one of the most well-rounded, human characters of all time. The Golden Age was great too, but they are kind of the same thing.
by BubbaKanoosh » Fri Jan 10, 2014 11:31 pmNice.
And great list!
by Amoebas » Sat Jan 11, 2014 9:31 amAll most done - down to eleven. Other writers I've now sadly whittled away...
Bob Haney - Brave and the Bold alone should have been enough to warrant entry, add in Teen Titans and the guy told some great stuff.
John Broome - what he did for Barry Allen and Hal Jordan is why we're still talking about comic books almost 60 years after his stories began!
Marv Wolfman - with or without Perez, Marv's work on Titans, Tomb of Dracula, Crisis, FF, etc are all stand outs amoungst the his peers.
Neil Gaiman - Punchy said it best in his last post - "Sandman. Nothing else need be said." And that (imo) is because he never excelled anywhere else. Sandman is genius and I love every page, but in comics, there really is nothing else to say besides Sandman.
Robert Kanigher - Like Broome, we probably wouldn't be here if not for Kanigher (co-creating Barry Allen). Metal Men was and is still fun to read but his it's war stories where he shined. Kanigher may be the most prolific WWII scribe of all time.
by BubbaKanoosh » Sat Jan 11, 2014 10:17 amI'm kinda glad I don't make a list
by Stephen Day » Sat Jan 11, 2014 3:13 pmHere's my list
1: Mark Gruenwald
2: Priest
3: Stan Lee
4: Steve Englehart
5: Kurt Busiek
6: Gerry Conway
7: Keith Giffen
8: Ed Brubaker
9: Fabian Nicieza
10: Charles Soule
by Stephen Day » Sat Jan 11, 2014 4:00 pmOh man that was hard. There were so many names I wanted to fit in, but just couldn't.
Bendis, Vaughn, Gaiman, Liss got left off at the last minute, Marv Wolfman, Mark Waid; I wanted to get them all on there. Damn there were some tough choices.
by Herald » Mon Jan 13, 2014 10:14 pmMy list was somewhat easy; putting them in order was the difficult part.
1. Marv Wolfman
Three words: New. Teen. Titans. He also wrote Crisis on Infinite Earths, THE Crisis Crossover; accept no Johns or Morrison substitutes! And of course, in COIE, he co-created the lovely lady to the left, for which I will be forever grateful!
2. Keith Giffen/J.M. DeMatteis
Giffen by himself tends to be too awkwardly goofy to succeed very well at being funny (Heckler, Vext). DeMatteis by himself tends to be too self-importantly esoteric (Dr. Fate, Hal Jordan Spectre). Put 'em together and it's GOLD, Jerry! (JLI, I Can't Believe It's Not the Justice League)
3. George Pérez
While all hail his renowned artistic capabilities, his writing is often overlooked. He brilliantly revamped the notoriously "difficult-to-write" Wonder Woman, as well as being the co-conspirator of the New Teen Titans juggernaut and Crisis on Infinite Earths. And of course, in that last one, he co-created the lovely lady to the left, for which I will be forever grateful!
4. Peter David
People nowadays like to claim that Geoff Johns put Aquaman on the map; nope, that was PAD. And he handled the heroes of Young Justice better than Geoff in Teen Titans, too. Just ask Wonder Girl about it especially. Oh, and I hear there were well-regarded Hulk and X-Factor runs from this David guy, as well.
5. John Ostrander
Recreated the Suicide Squad as the "supervillains doing espionage" concept that most fans know it as today. Wrote an excellent Martian Manhunter run. Proved that the Spectre CAN hold a series -- a quite compelling one, at that -- and that any writer/fan who points to any character and claims that "This character is TOO POWERFUL to use!!" is just whining pitifully.
6. Mark Waid
Wrote THE definitive Wally West Flash run, and therein gave us Mr. Fun Personified, Impulse. Also defined the post-Zero-Hour Legion of Super-Heroes, my favorite version of the team, including creating two of my favorite Legionnaires, XS and Gates.
7. Tony Isabella
Created another of my favorite characters, Black Lightning, while simultaneously keeping DC from unleashing the questionable "Black Bomber" concept on the world. Wrote my favorite single issue of any comic, Black Lighting (second series) #5. Thanks, Tony!
8. Mike W. Barr
And, since I clearly haven't mentioned Black Lightning enough yet, Mike W. Barr brought him back to be in one of the most enjoyable DC teams, the Outsiders. I've liked every member of his team lineups. Barr also penned my favorite "Filling up the first-issue letter page because there are no letters yet" editorial, in Batman and the Outsiders #1.
9. Denny O'Neil
'Nuff said.
10. Chuck Dixon
The best workhorse in the biz. Most writers' quality level drops with the number of books they're writing, but Dixon can write several series every month, and you can count on them all to be great stuff. I'm still impressed that he was writing Robin, Nightwing, and Detective Comics (starring some Bat-guy you may have heard of), three books featuring characters with similar abilities, and yet he nicely differentiated between the characters and their separate milieus. Not all writers can pull that off, either.
