|Ethan Sutton caught four passes for 64 yards and a
touchdown in St. Lawrence's surprise win against
St. Lawrence photo by Tara Freeman
Twenty years is a long time. I mean, I'm only 28, for crying out loud. So when something happens for the first time in 20 years, it's a pretty big deal.
Hobart had beaten St. Lawrence 18 times in a row. Didn't matter if the games were in Geneva or in Canton, St. Lawrence just couldn't get over the hump.
Until now.
Thanks to three touchdown passes by senior quarterback JP Kearney and five turnovers caused by the Saints defense, the Saints finally beat Hobart for the first time since 1991, a 24-21 win on Homecoming at Leckonby Stadium.
"It's a huge win for our program," first-year coach Mark Raymond said Tuesday afternoon. "It shows that we can be competitive in the Liberty League."
Sometimes the games have been close, like a 13-0 win in 1992, a 27-23 win in 1994 and a 25-24 squeaker in 1996, coach Mike Cragg's second year at the helm of Hobart.
Others, not so much, like a 57-0 drubbing in 1997 and a 56-21 rout in 2007.
But St. Lawrence finally got through the Hobart barrier in 2010 and did it with some quality quarterback play from the senior under center.
"JP did an outstanding job and did excellently, even under lots of pressure from the Hobart defense," Raymond said. "The guys made a lot of plays."
Kearney only completed eight passes on the day, but three of them were for scores.
On the defensive side of the ball, senior co-captain linebacker Ben Cryts had three interceptions of Hobart quarterback Doug Vella as St. Lawrence remained tied atop the Liberty League with Union at 2-0.
"Ben was outstanding. He's been a leader for us from Day 1 of camp this year," Raymond said.
The first-year coach was quick to give credit to the rest of his coaching staff for their preparation in the week leading up to playing the Statesmen.
"We had a good game plan," Raymond said. "Hobart is good on offense, and (Steven) Webb is very dangerous at running back. He's a heck of a weapon."
The current players on the Saints' squad were still in diapers the last time SLU beat the Statesmen, but Raymond and the coaching squad didn't have to say too much for his team to know how huge a win this was.
"Hobart has been a tough opponent for a long time," Raymond said. "Winning is always good for a team's momentum and confidence."
When asked if a win like this could help in recruiting, Raymond said it could based on the fact that "success breeds success."
"Winning football games is always helpful, but this is just one game, and we still have to prepare for the rest of the season," he said.
Next week will have another tough test, going out of conference to play Utica, who fought Fisher tooth and nail, falling in their first conference game, 35-24.
"They are a very solid football team on both sides of the ball," Raymond said. "It's going to be a challenge, no question about it."
Top 25 roundup
Delaware Valley moved up from No. 13 to No. 12 in the D3football.com Top 25 poll after a surprisingly easy 38-6 win against Middle Athletic Conference rival Lebanon Valley.
DVC quarterback Matt Hatty tied a school record with five touchdowns, throwing for 269 yards as well on the day.
The record tied three others in DVC history: Jim Smith in 1968, Duke Greco in 2000 and Adam Knoblauch in 2003. Greco is the current offensive coordinator for the Aggies.
Another record was broken, as Matt Cook soared into the top spot for rushing yards in a career, passing Steve Cook on the all-time list. Matt Cook rushed for 94 yards on 17 carries, and now has 3,549 for his career.
In a rematch of last year's New Jersey Athletic Conference championship game, No. 16 Montclair State battled Kean. Thanks to two touchdown passes from Tom Fischer, the Red Hawks remain undefeated at 4-0, 3-0 in the conference. MSU takes on The College of New Jersey next week, looking to win its 13th conference game in a row.
St. John Fisher moved to 5-0 after a 35-24 win over upstart Utica on Saturday night at the first-ever night game at Gaetano Stadium. SJF senior quarterback Tim Bailey threw for 290 yards and four touchdowns, three to receiver Dan Witkowski, who tied a school record with the three touchdown catches.
Both teams struggled on defense, especially in the first half, as the teams went into the locker room at halftime with St. John Fisher up 24-21, but the Cardinals only allowed three points in the second half. Utica sophomore quarterback Andrew Benkwitt threw for 257 yards but was held out of the end zone for the first time this year.
The Cardinals rise from No. 24 to No. 20 in the D3football.com poll.
Alfred also moved up four spots, from 25 to 21, after a 49-24 win over non-conference (but soon to be conference) opponent Frostburg State.
Sophomore tailback Chris Lopez only ran for 70 yards, but had three 1-yard touchdown runs on the day.
Sophomore defensive tackle Mike Raplee had a heck of a day, making 9 tackles, 2.5 for loss and recording a sack.
Senior quarterback Dan Pitcher had four touchdown passes, three to senior Anthony Giuliano. Cortland held TCNJ to 91 yards of total offense.
Sophomore tailback Justin Autera scored on a 14-yard touchdown pass, his 10th in four games. The play was named as the D3football.com play of the week.
Conference roundups
NJAC: Steve Hevalow and Tim Hagerty each rushed for more than 100 yards in Rowan's 24-7 win over Buffalo State.
Hevalow carried the ball 30 times for 143 yards and two touchdowns and Hagerty, the quarterback, rushed for 127 yards as they ran over the Bengals.
William Paterson got scores from the offense, defense and special teams in a 35-0 shutout of Western Connecticut.
It was the first shutout for WPU since 2005, and it came in a big way on Homecoming.
The Pioneers are 3-1 overall, and 2-1 in the NJAC, its best start since a 5-0 beginning in 1992. They face off against Morrisville next week.
Morrisville beat Brockport 48-41, but the big story was Brockport running back Alex Hendrickson. He was named the offensive player of the week in the conference, rushing for 310 yards and two touchdowns against Morrisville State. The total was the highest in D-III so far in 2010, and second highest in Brockport history, behind Garet Lynch's 429 against Hartwick a couple of years ago.
All those yards meant a little less in the end, as Morrisville scored with 3:57 left for the go-ahead points.
Liberty League: RPI's defense finally came together for a full game against Rochester at Fauver Stadium on Saturday, shutting out the Yellowjackets 17-0. Mike Hermann was the key for RPI, passing for 172 yards and a touchdown, and rushed for 99 yards and a touchdown.
Rochester is one of the disappointments so far in the East, starting 0-4 overall and 0-2 in LL play.
Union used the rushing game to perfection to sneak past WPI 25-17. Chris Coney and Drew Connolly both had two touchdown runs as Union only passed for 52 yards on the day.
Coney had a big day on the ground, rushing for 197 yards on 32 carries and those two scores, and was named as a Liberty League co-offensive player of the week for his performance.
Union and St. Lawrence are tied atop the conference at 2-0.
Empire 8: Ithaca raced out to a 21-0 lead, then had to hold on to beat Hartwick 29-17. Ithaca sophomore running back Clay Ardoin rushed for a career-high 108 yards and fellow classmate Andre Jamison caught his first touchdown as a Bomber, a 43-yard bomb from Rob Zappia.
Hartwick's Jordan Wilkins caught 9 passes for 170 yards and two touchdowns in the loss, but the Hawks were held to zero rushing yards, and the imbalance was costly.
Springfield rewrote the Pride record book in a 64-0 pasting of the Merchant Marine Academy. The top three running backs for SC were injured, but it didn't much matter as the backups -- mostly sophomores and freshmen -- picked up the slack.
Freshman quarterback Austin Bateman rushed 12 times for 171 yards and two touchdowns, while sophomore running back Mike Davis ran 14 times for 118 yards and three scores as the Mariners had no answer whatsoever for the Pride.
Springfield broke the game rushing total with 676 yards, breaking the record of 596 set in 1996 against William Paterson. They also broke the total yards record, with 717.
MAC: FDU-Florham's unbeaten streak was snapped as the Pride of Widener University took down the Devils 35-20.
A 21-point fourth quarter sealed the victory for Widener.
The big star on the day for the Pride was kick returner LaQuan Robinson, who returned not one, but two punts for touchdown (63 and 62 yards, respectively) and had a 42.3 yard return average on the day.
A win would have given FDU its first 4-0 start since 1988.
Lycoming's Josh Kleinfelter rushed for 216 yards and two touchdowns in the Warriors' 31-24 win over King's College.
Kleinfelter, a senior, moved into second place on the all-time rushing list, 105 yards behind the top spot. Kleinfelter has 3,162 yards in his career.
It was offense all the way between Wilkes and Albright on Saturday, but special teams made the difference, as Wilkes kicker Chris Horn nailed a 30-yard field goal with only a few seconds left to give the Colonels a 38-35 win.
Albright junior running back Josan Holmes ran for 99 yards on 20 carries, surpassing the 2,000-yard barrier. It'll be interesting to see how high on the rushing list he can get.
Picks return
I've been asked to do the picks again for some of the biggest games on the East Region schedule. So without further ado, here's the fail, in full view:
Ithaca at No. 20 St. John Fisher: St. John Fisher looks good, but the defense struggled in the first half against Utica. Ithaca is still battling injuries, but Rob Zappia at quarterback is the real deal for the Bombers.
St. John Fisher gets the home edge, however.
SJF 35, Ithaca 24
Hobart 27, Union 20
Bonus pick: Coney and Webb each rush for more than 100 yards.
Cortland 45, Brockport 28

DUNWOODY: New docs in daycare murder case allege affair | News
DECATUR, Ga. -- New documents released Thursday allege that Dunwoody daycare murder suspect Hemy Neuman was having an affair with the wife of the man he is accused of shooting to death last November.
The documents are part of the divorce proceedings against Neuman being brought by his estranged wife, Ariela Neuman.
RELATED: Read the court documents
Ariela's lawyers said in the documentation that Hemy Neuman had an extramarital affair with Andrea Sneiderman, widow of Russell Sneiderman, who was gunned down in front of a Dunwoody daycare in November 2010.
Neuman has pleaded not guilty to the killing of Sneiderman. That trial is expected to begin in October 2011.
As part of the documentation, Ariela's lawyers asked for documentation from a number of social networking websites that Hemy Neuman may have participated on including Facebook, MySpace, Match.com, eHarmony.com and others.
According to the documentation, Ariela's lawyers suggest that Hemy Neuman's mother had promised to give Hemy more than $300,000 toward his murder defense in the Sneiderman murder case. They also suggest that no monies have been paid in support of his one minor daughter since his arrest in January.
The documents went on to suggest that Hemy Neuman never threatened Andrea Sniederman with losing her job if she didn't become involved with him sexually, and that he never forced himself on her. They also said Neuman and Andrea Sneiderman "conspired" to ask Russell Sneiderman for help in finding another job for him (Neuman), given the financial problems that Neuman said his family was undergoing at the time.
The document said Neuman learned of a life insurance policy on Russell Sneiderman which would pay out to Andrea and their children in the event of Russell's death.
According to the documents, Hemy Neuman and Andrea Sneiderman traveled to Colorado together in July 2010, which, the documents said, was not approved by their employer, General Electric, as a business trip. They said he paid for the trip from "marital funds."
The documents went on to say that Hemy Neuman told Ariela the two of them would travel to England and Scotland on a General Electric business trip in September 2010, but shortly before that trip, Neuman told his wife she could not go and that he would be traveling alone. However, according to the documents, Andrea Sneiderman accompanied Neuman on the trip to England and Scotland - and instead of having one of his children take him to the airport, as he normally would, he had a car assigned by General Electric pick him up to take him, and eventually Andrea Sneiderman, to the airport for that trip.
Hemy Neuman moved out of the family home on October 3, 2010, and according to the court documents, announced this to his wife and family in an e-mail that they said he ended up sending to 20 different e-mail addresses.
The court documents went on to say that Andrea Sneiderman accompanied Hemy Neuman on an overnight trip to Greenville, S.C., where he would normally return the same day. The papers say the couple had sexual relations in South Carolina on that particular trip.
According to the papers, Hemy Neuman purchased a firearm prior to November 1, 2010 and went shooting at a firing range on November 1, 2010, which is also his youngest daughter's birthday.
On November 18, the same day Russell Sneiderman was shot to death, the documents said Hemy Neuman told Ariela Neuman it was necessary to take Andrea Sneiderman's computer from work. The papers say this was to erase any evidence which would prove a relationship between Hemy Neuman and Andrea Sneiderman.
The documents went on to say that Hemy Neuman and Andrea Sneiderman communicated numerous times via e-mail, telephone, text messages, e-mail, chat rooms both before and after Russell Sneiderman's death.
Ariela Neuman's lawyer suggests in the papers that this is the cause of her divorce petition.
Hemy Neuman remains in jail awaiting trial.

Author Bio▼▲
best-selling Left Behind series. Twenty of his books have reached the New York Times bestsellers list (including seven that debuted at number one), and also the USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists. Jenkins has been featured on the cover of Newsweek magazine. Jerry and his wife, Dianna, live in Colorado.
"What a great read! I took I, Saul to the beach planning to enjoy it over our two-week family vacation. But the book only lasted a few days! I couldn't put it down! It is an inspirational,insightful, page-turning thriller! I have read many of Jerry Jenkins' books, but this one is his best! My applause!" - Anne Graham Lotz, Author of Wounded by God's People
"A master storyteller, Jerry Jenkins has taken up the greatest conversion story of all time-the Apostle Paul's. In I, Saul, we see the biblical outline faithfully followed with detail that grips the heart afresh about what a life totally dedicated to Jesus Christ looks like. May this compelling story stir fresh devotion among Christ followers everywhere." - Jack Graham Pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church, Dallas
"A stirring fiction founded upon the facts of scripture. Jerry Jenkins brings to life one of history's greatest men: the Apostle Paul, whose life inspires us to stand and suffer for our Savior, Jesus Christ." - Mark Driscoll, Founder and Preaching Pastor, Mars Hill Church, Seattle
"Whenever a skilled author is able to make a key biblical character come alive, I get interested. And I, Saul more than measures up. Jerry Jenkins has excelled in creating a compelling story that remains true to the character and personality of the most important figure in the early church. Everything I like about a great novel is here: danger, political intrigue, and cultural detail. If you enjoy mystery and history, I, Saul is a must read!" - Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends International Disability Center
"I, Saul has everything a great thriller needs: page-turning action, intrigue and mounting suspense, plot twists that really work and, above all, characters worth caring about. The chapter-to-chapter shift from present day to the first century is both clever and effective. The best part? Spending time with Saul of Tarsus. A brilliant concept and a great read." - Liz Curtis Higgs New York Times best-selling author of Mine Is the Night
"I, Saul combines the historical with the contemporary, and the outcome is compulsive reading. Vintage Jerry Jenkins!" - Chris Fabry, Novelist and host of Chris Fabry Live!
"If Jerry Jenkins would be but one thing (which he assuredly is not), it would be a story teller. He is worth reading for this alone, but he also manages purpose without preaching. I, Saul is plausible fiction, astute reflection, and a flat-out good read." - Wallace Alcorn, Ph.D., Biblical scholar and author
"Jerry Jenkins has compressed his vast talents as a biblical researcher, biographer, mystery writer,and thrill master in I, Saul. Hang on, friends-it's all in one breathless package!" - Dr. Dennis E. Hensley, Author of Jesus in the 9 to 5, Director of the Professional Writing Program, Taylor University
"I, Saul is one of the finest books I have ever read. I not only believe it is a good book; I believe it is an important book. I laughed. I cried. And, yes, I found myself wanting to learn even more of the life of the Apostle Paul. In the end, I don't think Jerry could ask any more of a reader." - Jim Pryor. westofthemind.blogspot.com
"The best of stories bring truth to life. The best of stories engage the imagination of the soul. The best of stories help one see the dynamic, real-time possibilities of one's own life. I, Saul is one of those best of stories that invites you to see and live into your own future, no matter your past. I could not put this one down!" - Wes Roberts, Leadership Mentor/Organizational Designer, Leadership Design Group
"Jerry Jenkins mixes a dose of international intrigue with historical information and douses it with biblical inspiration to create one of the most riveting stories I've ever read. A masterpiece. If you liked the Left Behind series, then you'll love I, Saul. I think it's Jerry's best." - Sammy Tippit International evangelist and author
"I, Saul has everything a great thriller needs: page-turning action, intrigue and mounting suspense,plot twists that really work, and, above all, characters worth caring about. The chapter-to-chapter shift from present day to the first century is both clever and effective. The best part - spending time with Saul of Tarsus. A brilliant concept and a great read." - Liz Curtis Higgs New York Times best-selling author of Mine Is the Night
"Jerry Jenkins has once again used his keen imagination and spiritual insight to blend reality with fantasy without compromising the biblical story. I, Saul captures the spirit of a man who has impacted great segments of humanity for nearly 2,000 years! I'm looking forward with great anticipation to the sequel, I, Paul." - Dr. Gene A. Getz, Professor, Pastor, Author
"As a writer and sportscaster I have a read thousands of books over the course of my career. I just finished reading Jerry B. Jenkins' latest masterpiece I, Saul, and it was one of the best novels I have ever read. Jerry is a mastermind of intrigue, mystery and historical facts. This was one of the books I could not put down, and just like his Left Behind series, it had me on the edge of my seat. I, Saul once again affirms my opinion that Jerry B. Jenkins is the greatest author of my generation. If you only read one book this year I strongly recommend I, Saul. I am excited for the sequel I, Paul. - Paul R. Condry, President, Regional Radio Sports Network, Publisher of the Indiana Football Digest
"It was one of the most interesting books that I've read. It keeps you in suspense. My favorite parts were those of Paul and his writings, how he loved the Lord, and how intimate he was with his belief in his Savior. I thought I knew Paul, but those pages brought to life the man who wrote so much of the New Testament. I don't have the words to express the insight and the depth of the words that Jerry B. Jenkins penned on those pages." - Tom Davidson Pastor, Christ the King Community Church Blackhawk, CO
"I personally enjoyed I, Saul, Jerry B. Jenkins' new book more than anything I¹ve read in a long time. It's a book full of mystery, action and romance, an utterly gripping novel and a vivid reminder of how God chooses unlikely men and women to accomplish His noble purposes. A great book!" - Bill Armstrong, President, Colorado Christian University, Former Colorado United States Senator
"When master word-weaver Jerry Jenkins joins forces with Bible exposition extraordinaire James MacDonald, you'd better make way for something powerful! In I, Saul Jerry and James give us a unique perspective into the character of the apostle Paul, using biblical facts as the basis for a work that is sure to please any fiction connoisseur. My prayer is that this book will give readers deeper insight into the life and teachings of the apostle, and more importantly, the One who commissioned him (and all of us) to share His Good News with the world." - Greg Laurie, Pastor, Harvest Ministries
"I, Saul is a must read book! God is shaking the foundations of the world right now, and at the heart of what He is doing is the power of His Word. Jerry Jenkins, the master story-teller, has written a powerful story that reveals the background and upbringing of the unique, passionate man who once relentlessly persecuted Jesus' followers-and who later God used to write much of the New Testament. A modern story of ancient texts, hidden memoirs, and political intrigue surrounds the discovery of a parchment possibly written by the Apostle Paul. Jerry skillfully takes us back to the first century story of Paul, while drawing us into a present day international thriller. These two parallel stories are brilliant and will leave you wanting more! I can' wait for the next one." - Ray Bentley, Senior Pastor, Maranatha Chapel, San Diego

Cutting-edge technology allows for ever-increasing collaborations.
Faculty and students actively create new materials and products. The instructional design process is a creative endeavor.
Members of the instructional technology program are constantly experimenting with both new instructional strategies and technologies.

We are pleased that you are here and invite you to explore our pages to see which of our 100% online degrees and certificates fit your needs.
Join us!
Degrees offered 100% online within the Instructional Technology program at East Carolina University include the Master of Arts in Education in Instructional Technology and recommendation for Licensure; Master of Science in Instructional Technology; and certificates in Computer-based Instruction, Distance Learning and Administration, and Special Endorsement in Computer Education. We also teach instructional technology courses to pre-service and lateral entry teacher candidates. We invite you to browse through our web pages and to join with us as we explore, create and collaborate with the next generation of instructional technologies.
According to the Association of Educational Communications and Technology, "Instructional Technology is the theory and practice of design, development, utilization, management, and evaluation of processes and resources for learning (Seels & Richey, 1994)." The term Instructional Technology and Educational Technology are generally considered synonymous. "Educational technology is the study and ethical practice of facilitating learning and improving performance by creating, using, and managing appropriate technology processes and resources (Januszewski & Molenda, 2008)."
Members of the instructional technology program are constantly experimenting with both new instructional strategies and technologies. Exploration and risk-taking are key. This video is an example of one professor's experiments with Google Glass.
Professor Abbie Brown, a member of the instructional technology faculty, received the UNC Board of Governors Award for Excellence in Teaching, the highest award given by the board.
Instructional Technology faculty help students
put theory into practice by guiding them through a systematic and
iterative process for developing instruction. Through a series of such
exercises, students master a variety of instructional media, methods,
and authoring tools.
Among the authoring tools and technologies,
students learn HTML, CSS, and Dreamweaver for web development, and learn
LiveCode for creating instructional apps. To dispel any myths that app
development should be left to expert computer programmers, students
learn that LiveCode features a visual programming interface, which
enables the development of apps using drag and drop tools, as well as
some code, which is rather like English. With the scaffolding built
into the assignments, students proceed to create their own instructional
Students work on assignments with real-world
clients and publish to authentic audiences. Melyssa Gomez and Nicole
Brown each created a web quest that is published on the website Global Sanctuary for Elephants. More than 200 ECU students have their lessons and SMART activities shared on the SMART Exchange network. Students
working on their MS degree complete a semester-long internship working
with clients on an instructional design task. Here is what a couple of
these students have to say about this collaborative experience:
"Our client was good to work for-in that she was easy to please and was a good communicator. The only issue in starting the project was the client's own issues with understanding what she wanted. This was good experience for our team. It would have been futile to have expected me to perform well in an initial project just out of grad school without this experience."
Jed Smith,
Science teacher
J.H. Rose High School
A course built around a full ISD project was invaluable to us becoming instructional designers. This is a great example of an authentic activity. And I appreciate the opportunity to give it a go within the confines of a course which provides us with a bit of a safety net, if you will -- No one loses a job if we do not succeed :) Dori Dori Stanfield, Director of Distance LearningDavidson County Community College

The theme of the trip was the myth of Theseus and the Mintoaur, in which Ariadne gives Theseus a ball of yarn - a clew - to help him find his way back out of the labyrinth. I spun a clew of my own and took it with me to use as a means of finding my way back to the places we went, once I was home and working on memory alone.
I left the first piece on our gate, a link to home as I travelled off with a group of fellow students and instructors, 29 of us in all.
I did create a few yarnbombs, and in other places I merely left a sliver of clue draped on a tree or wrapped around a pole. This was more about creating concrete anchors for my memories than making yarn bombs for others to find and enjoy.
Mouse Woman of the Spirit of Haida Gwai; The Jade Canoe in the Vancouver International Departures Terminal, with a sliver of clue threaded through her fingers.
Airports aren't particularly friendly places. Hives of activity that is seen or unseen, with thousands of people a day passing through on their way to somewhere more enticing, they are santitized and scoured constantly to remove traces of those who've gone before. I left another sliver of clew around a small table in the Heathrow Airport's massive Terminal 5 as we waited for our flight to Athens.
One of my favourite times during the trip was spent on this bench in Nafplion, on the island of Naxos. There were fishermen mending nets on their boats, sitting in the shade of their canopies. Grandmothers called to children, other tourists wandered by, but I sat and enjoyed the shift from evening to sunset, looking out at the water.
While I sat there contemplating I hooked up a small tag for one of the rails, and then threaded a bit of my clue around the rail.
Other places I picked up beautiful smooth stones from the beach. This stone is perfectly smooth, from a beach on the southern coast of Crete. It is one of the few I made and left as markers around the little village of Piskopiano, where we stayed for a few days.
I made a few and gave them to fellow students. I left one at a family restaurant where I ate yummy food cooked by the women in the hot kitchen while the men brought wine and bread and cheese and more wine.
This one maybe I wish I had kept....but always on my mind was the 40lbs restriction for luggage weight. I did bring home a few rocks, and just had to be choosy.
I'm fond of hanging tags in trees and was surprised to find a big stone hanging in a tree in a yard in Skyros Town. The guide explained that it was an ancient type of anchor, and could be as old as 1,000 years, or more.
I found a smaller rock with a little hole in it on a beach, and though I don't think it was ever an anchor, I did bring it home to hang in one of my own trees.
I loop it on with some of the clew I brought home, completing the circle.

Singapore Soccer Team Forced to Pay Money for Sucking So Bad?
If you suck at soccer in Singapore, you better be ready to pay up.
The country's top men's soccer organization, known as the S.League, has decided that mere humiliation isn't enough of a punishment for its doormats. Starting next season, any team that finishes in last or second-to-last place will be slapped with a fine of up to 50,000 Singapore dollars, equivalent to $41,000 in the United States.
According to S.League CEO Lim Chin, the organization "hope(s) these stiff penalties, not just a slap on the wrist, will inspire clubs to do well." Soccer is incredibly popular in Singapore, but it's hard to imagine that any of its teams, even the successful ones, can easily afford a large fine. For some squads, a successful season might mean the difference between sports glory and looking for a new job.
More importantly, can you imagine if this rule existed in America's top professional leagues? Sure, teams like the Pittsburgh Pirates or the Cleveland Browns are openly ridiculed for their struggles, but they aren't expected to open up their wallets and pay for them. In fact, thanks to modern-day sports luxuries such as profit-sharing and college drafts, there's often an incentive to churning out the occasional low payroll or losing season.
That said, the S. League's Woodlands Wellington Football Club is 2-15 this season. Better start practicing, guys.

"This is Adrienne Rich's seventh book of poems, and it is an extraordinary one. When I first heard the author read from it, I felt as though the top of my head was being attacked, sometimes with an ice pick, sometimes wtih a blunter instrument: a hatchet or a hammer. The predomimant emotions seemed to be anger and hatred, but when I read the poems later, they evoked a far subtler reaction. 'Diving into the Wreck' is one of those rare books that forces you to decide not just what you think about it, but what you think about yourself. It is a book that takes risks, and it forces the reader to take them also."Rich, Adrienne is the author of 'Diving into the Wreck Poems 1971-1972', published 1994 under ISBN 9780393311631 and ISBN 0393311635.[read more]

Yakk wrote:The claims that there is no way to bound it away from 100% efficiency seem wrong, as there is going to be an entropic cost to aiming at the target (picking that target, and not others, to apply your energy to), no? And that cost increases with the distance of the target (given a fixed size), as your aim has to be more precise?
Typically, the entropy cost of "setting up" a system is counted separately from the energy used within the system. The OP asks whether there is any intrinsic energy inefficiency proportional to distance when moving from the nonfictional realm of pushing on an object and the fictional realm of action at a distance. To be sure, the chosen telekinetic mechanism (whether it involves aiming or some sort of lossy particle beam or whatever) may indeed involve distance-dependent inefficiencies, and we've seen how the concept of moving something in a nonlinear direction will introduce torquing and thus decrease effective strength, but neither of those things are energy inefficiencies intrinsic to physics itself.
Depending on how the telekinesis works, my stick figure in the diagrams above could conceivably use a third object somewhere as a fulcrum or anchor of some kind and thus be able to exert greater sideways force than he otherwise would have been able to.
This cost (on first approximation) doesn't seem high, but it seems to be non-zero.
When the energy costs of an action can be made arbitrarily low by making the action arbitrarily slow, they can be dismissed for the purposes of evaluating the system itself.

I found this quite refreshing on TechCrunch:
Benchmark partner Bill Gurley wrote an interesting note about the acquisition today, revealing that the firm didn't even announce Benchmark's funding of the company, which he says is unprecedented.The Demandforce team always felt that the attention should be focused on the customer rather than the company., he writes.
Demandforce focuses on local professional businesses and has chosen to keep an intentionally low profile – a strategy that has served them well, Gurley explains.
Keeping a low profile (in the business media – not your customers media) is an approach that I like. There is just something about it that appeals to me, it feels like Demandforce is all about substance rather than hype, titles or celebrity. However, in practice I see great value in people knowing who you are – that is keeping a high profile (the more people that know who you are, the greater your exposure to new opportunities).

The Baltimore County Public Library has named a new branch manager for the Perry Hall Library.
Cindy Kleback, a 15-year veteran of library work, was announced Tuesday as the new manager at the Perry Hall branch, 9685 Honeygo Blvd.
Library officials said that prior to joining the county library system, Kleback worked at the Enoch Pratt Free Library in Baltimore for nine years, and most recently served as branch manager of the Southeast Anchor Library in Highlandtown, where she was on staff when the library opened in 2007.
She also worked at the Patterson Park, Canton and Herring Run branches prior to Southeast Anchor.
During her time with Pratt, she was credited with establishing the Adult Summer Reading Program; was involved with the social networking presence on Facebook and Twitter and worked with community outreach in Southeast Baltimore.
Kleback holds a bachelor's degree from the University of West Florida in political science with a minor in international relations, and obtained a master's degree in information resources and library science from the University of Arizona in 2000.

Thomasville officials agree it's time for a new police headquarters.
THOMASVILLE | Thomasville officials agree it's time for a new police headquarters. It's still unclear when that need will become a reality.
Thomasville City Councilman and retired police chief Ronald Bratton reintroduced the idea of relocating the police department at the council's annual retreat earlier this month.
The city has discussed moving the department for multiple years. The building, located at 7 W. Guilford St., was used as a multi-faceted governmental center in the past, housing the fire and police departments as well as City Hall.
The structure, built in 1937, was never designed to house a police department, Bratton said, adding that the building's main issues are a lack of records space and the appropriate amenities such as bathrooms, lockers and showers.
"We know we can't do this change this year or next year, but the process needs to start," Bratton said. "We have to make some effort and some plans to move forward with this."
Thomasville City Manager Kelly Craver said the city will reduce its outstanding debt in coming years, making it easier to issue new debt to say the least. The city will have two sets of bonds for sewer improvements paid off in three to four years. In addition, the city will finish its debt payments on the Winding Creek Golf Course in June, Craver said.
While there is no distinct timetable at this point, city officials are continuing to look at possible locations throughout the city. At some point, council must decide whether to refurbish an existing structure or build anew.
There has been some discussion in recent years about moving the parks and recreation department staff from Central Parks and Recreation Center, located on East Main Street, to Memorial Park, which the city would expand and refurbish. The would open up space at Central for the police department, according to Thomasville records.
Thomasville Police Chief Jeff Insley said no matter what happens, he hopes to stay in a centralized location.
Insley, who took over as chief after Bratton retired in 2009, said the department does have some drug forfeiture money that could be used to assist the cost of a new building. Like Bratton, he said he believes that the department has worked to make the headquarters as functional as possible.
"The overall functionality would definitely improve with a new department," Insley said.
A recent Space Needs Assessment recommends the new facility to be roughly 23,000 square feet. Insley said he sees the need the most with storing records, which are housed on all three floors of the building.
At the headquarters, there is a chief's office, a staff meeting room, one other office and a space for records. There is also a board room, which is used for city council meetings.
The police department also has three district offices due to a lack of space at the headquarters, and it also utilizes one other off-site facility, Insley said.

Bannock is a simple griddle-cooked or pan-fried quick bread that can be made with as little as flour, salt and water fried in fat. As such, it was a popular food among trappers and natives on the move in early Canada. Nowadays it's usually leavened with baking powder, giving it the texture of a dense scone and with the same floury taste. Dotted with raisins and cranberries and seasoned with a little ground cinnamon, bannock is an easy treat to make at home or out on the trail.

Sarah Gadon — Crush of the Day
Today we're crushing on Canadian actress Sarah Gadon. Hard. Wanna know how hard? We're willing to sit through a Robert Pattinson movie just to get a glimpse of her striking blue eyes and sexy full-lipped smile, that's how hard!
The Canadian actress is sure to incur the wrath of Twi-hard teen girls everywhere with her role as Pattinson's wife in 'The Fly' director David Cronenberg's new thriller 'Cosmopolis,' opening later this year. Gadon also stars in the sci-fi horror mystery 'Antiviral,' the upcoming debut feature from Cronenberg's son Brandon.
When recently asked which Cronenberg is the best to work with, Gadon responded, "As you might expect, they're both deeply disturbed misfits who eat their own skin flakes and collect jars of pee, so … yeah, same difference." OK, that's not true at all – Gadon kept it classy and praised both filmmakers equally. That's another thing we love about her, she's a classy girl.
Gadon has been acting for more than ten years, but she first caught our eye with her breakout role as Carl Jung's wife in the elder Cronenberg's 2011 drama 'A Dangerous Method.' Gadon managed to stand out in the period piece while playing against award winning heavy-hitters like Viggo Mortensen, Michael Fassbender and Keira Knightley. She also co-starred with Daniel Craig, Naomi Watts and Rachel Weisz in the recent horror flick 'Dream House.'
We're looking forward to her next project, 'An Enemy,' in which she'll share the screen with Jake Gyllenhaal, Isabella Rossellini and one of our more recent Crushes, Mélanie Laurent.

EU Justice Commissioner Reding welcomes the European Parliament's strong support for more women in economic decision-making positions
On the occasion of the European Parliament's vote on the report on women and business leadership, Vice-President Viviane Reding, the EU's Justice Commissioner, said:
"It is good news that the European Parliament supports the European Commission's approach towards more women in economic decision-making positions. Today's vote confirms that the Commission is acting at the right time and in the right way.
We need to act now because in economically difficult times it's essential to use the untapped potential of the well-educated female workforce. We are taking the right approach because we want to give companies a last chance to act through credible self regulation. I have called on publicly listed companies in the EU to sign the "Women on the Board Pledge for Europe" to voluntarily increase women's presence on corporate boards to 30% by 2015 and to 40% by 2020. However, if there has not been credible progress by March 2012, I stand ready to take the necessary legislative steps at EU level. The European Parliament's contribution to this debate is crucial. I would like to thank Vice-President Kratsa in particular for her bold report and the members of the European Parliament's Committee on Women's Rights for their overwhelming support."
Europeans are currently debating how to address the under-representation of women in economic decision making. At the moment, women represent roughly 1 out of 10 members of the supervisory boards of the largest publicly listed companies in the EU and only 3% of the presidents of boards. Across the European Union, one in three large companies had no women at all on its board in 2010. And this is despite the fact that more women are earning college degrees than men – 60% of new university graduates in Europe are female.
Five EU countries have so far introduced legislative quotas to increase the number of women in business leadership: Spain, France, the Netherlands and – as of last week – also Belgium and Italy.
Irrespective of the solutions found in individual Member States, today one idea is gaining ground in Europe: there is a business case for gender equality. Studies show positive correlations between diversity in boards and company performance. A McKinsey study of large European companies indicates that the best companies in terms of work environment, innovation, accountability and profits were those with a higher proportion of women on boards. According to their latest report, companies with a gender balanced composition can achieve an operational profit which is 56% higher than that of male only companies.
On 1 March, Justice Commissioner Reding met chief executives and chairs of boards of publicly listed companies to discuss the under-representation of women on corporate boards. She challenged all publicly listed companies in Europe to sign up to the "Women on the Board Pledge for Europe" and voluntarily commit to increasing women's participation on corporate boards to 30% by 2015 and to 40% by 2020 (see IP/11/242 and MEMO/11/124).

Brigham Pipes135 Total ( 4 On Sale )
Brigham pipes began in Toronto, Canada, in 1906 when Roy Brigham opened a shop. The business grew, and there were five other craftsmen by 1918 working on pipes that became famous all over Canada. The early 1900s saw great innovation from pipe companies around the globe, and Brigham focused on removing the dreaded 'tongue bite' that so many smokers experienced. By inventing a rock maple insert in 1938 Brigham was able to help smokers enjoy a pipe without scalding their tongue. The 3-inch-long wooden insert is about as large in diameter as a sucker stick, and has a hole drilled through the center which allows a pipe cleaner to pass through. While smoking, tars and moisture are absorbed by the maple and the smoker can enjoy pure tobacco flavor.
All Brigham pipes have the rock maple insert which fits securely in the long, nylon tenon on the stem. The insert can be changed when darkened, or cleaned with alcohol to further the life. Both vulcanite and acrylic mouthpieces are used, though the Chinook, Heritage, and Gigante pipes each have a hand-cut acrylic bit. Most shapes are classic variations that will be smooth, sandblasted, or rusticated and feature Brigham's unique "precarb" that consists of red clay to protect the bowl.

Possible TCU Addition: Doomsday Scenario for Big 12 Hoops?Posted by dnspewak on October 10th, 2011
Big 12 football fans are salivating at the league's invitation to Texas Christian, which has appeared in two straight BCS bowl games and has cemented itself as a national power during the past decade or so. With 17 conference titles and NFL stars like LaDainian Tomlinson roaming around, the invitation makes logical and economic sense for all parties involved.
There's just one problem, though: the hoops aspect. The addition of TCU looks like a disastrous scenario for the Big 12 in the short-term. Forget for a moment even the lack of history for the Horned Frogs (and, just a warning, there's not much). The larger problem is the current state of TCU hoops, which, to put it nicely, can only be described as having "fallen on hard times." In three years, coach Jim Christian has never finished above .500, and his team limped to a 1-15 record in Mountain West play a year ago. As a whole, the program hasn't made the NCAA Tournament since 1998, back when Billy Tubbs coached the team, and it has not finished with a winning record in its league since 2001.

Monsanto Awarded ONE BILLION Dollars Due To Patent Infringement For A Product That Was Never On The Market
from the roundup-ready dept
The damages theory was interesting. Since the accused product was not yet on the market, Monsanto did not seek any lost profit. Rather, Monsanto demanded a reasonable royalty for the research-use made by the defendants. Monsanto argued that the use of Monsanto's invention in DuPont's labs and Pioneer's test fields gave those companies an "improper head start" in making the GM seeds. The judge and jury agreed – if those companies wanted to build upon the invention then they should have first obtained a license. In the pharmaceutical world, 35 U.S.C. § 271(e) offers a research exemption for this type of activity. However, that exception does not apply here because of the low level of regulation over genetically modified food-products. The patent is set to expire in 2014. The patentee's right-to-exclusive-research supported by this case means that the 2014 date offers a starting-date for follow-on competitive research. Any actual products building directly upon the patented invention will arrive on the market sometime later.Got that? Normally, companies can build on top of others' products as patents are set to expire, so they're ready to launch once the patent has expired. But, in this case, even trying to build new offerings in a lab for use later is apparently an insane billion dollar issue. Even worse, it means that any real competition, which will create more market-reasonable prices, gets significantly delayed as no one can prepare for when the patent expires.

Wabash Chamber Orchestra Performing Sunday• April 24, 2014 Share:
Wabash College's Music Department invites you to a concert given by the Chamber Orchestra. The orchestra will present its concert at 7:30 p.m., Sunday, April 27, in Salter Concert Hall in the Fine Arts Center.
Under the direction of Alfred Abel, the program comprises two classical masterpieces, opening with La Scala di Seta overture by Gioacchino Rossini, and concluding with Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 in A Major. La Scala di Seta, or "The Silken Ladder," was Rossini's operatic treatment of the familiar fairy tale Rapunzel and displays all of Rossini's famous sparkle, brilliance, and high drama.
Beethoven's 7th Symphony has long been regarded as one of the finest symphonies by the greatest symphonist of all time. Recently, the second movement of this masterpiece received popular exposure in a new quarter—the award-winning movie, "The King's Speech."
The Chamber Orchestra draws its members not only from the Wabash student body, but also from musicians on the faculty and staff, along with professional and amateur musicians from the surrounding area. The program will appeal to the entire community, and families are encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity to expose their children to the great classical repertoire in a warm and intimate setting.
The concert is free and open to the public.

This thread is meant for discussing and spreading reliable and stable programs.
Some good programs can be hard to find either because they are not spoken of very often, the net has been overwhelmed with publicity for weaker programs from big corporations or people don't have enough expertise with the particular type of program to tell the difference between what's good and what's not so good.
This thread is meant to help point people to the good/excellent ones.
If you are having trouble finding programs, just don't know if you should buy a particular one or you're just curious what program is used to do some things post here so people may share their experience.
Maybe there's a program out there that does everything you wish for and is also FREE.
It never hurts to ask.
Guidelines for Requesting:
IMPORTANT RULE : In this thread and in the rest of the forum there will be NO Asking, NO Giving and NO Mentioning of information on where to find pirated software, how to crack/cheat/hack program licenses and software or any other piece of information that violates product copyrights, license etc.

As an IRC client I use mIRC... I'll say it is better than Opera's IRC client, but not exceptional. mIRC is shareware; you get a free trial for 30 days before registering it for $20 so you might as well give it a try. If you don't think it is worth purchasing, then you can always use Opera for free.
Now, I've got a question: Can anyone recommend good Firewall and Anti-Virus programs for me? While I would prefer free or cheap programs, what I'm really interested in are programs that have minimal system overhead. Are there such programs that will do the job well, without slowing my system or eating up resources? It would be worth paying for such programs if they worked well. Unfortunately the market leaders have turned into bloatware and other programs seem to have other problems.

I mean to get to it I would have to hit F11 >> drag all the way to Feeds >> click it >> click on the AS rss feed (and then I'm faced with a ton of info I don't need... and apparently I can't squeeze the fields to 0)
I might as well go to the AS front page... (Shift+F2) + s
I'm looking for a program that can run outside the browser and has some friendly form of announcing stuff... like a pop-up or sound. (I only need it for AS)
I think I'll stick with good ol' Opera... IRC will probably disappear in a few years once Opera completes development on they're Event Streaming to Web Browsers thing... or not...
I think it's better to go by what anti-virus should I not use...
For example Not32 is a really low resource anti-virus, but I got infected with jeefo so black boll for it...
Right now I'm happy with Kaspersky... pretty much detects/deletes anything that's threatening. (it's not that famed for it's disinfecting properties)
Until now every time I accidentally got a file that was dangerous (trojan or so) I would see a little window pop up saying that the file had trojen, virus etc and Kaspersky waked it off of my hdd...
I know some of my friends are happy with Bitdefender and McAfee...
Haven heard any bad stories about them...
Firewall ?... Hmm... I use the windows one... I'm starting to feel some second thoughts about software by Microsoft... I would also like to know of a FREE alternative... I'm don't play video games so it's not that important to me if it's a resource hog or not...
* * * * * * *
BTW can anyone advise me on Linux...
Heard about it... never seen one...
If I understand correctly it's FREE and there are several versions...
BTW were do I get it...
yes I'm a n00b... lol

This is probably going to be a lead in for a double post, one informational, one argumentative.
1) Sharpreader (Free) (Semi-active dev) (Secure) (Seems to be the preference of a few majors Developers too.)
2) Greatnews (Free) (Semi-active dev, secure?)
3) Feeddemon (30 day trial, then pay) (Fully Active dev) (Secure) ***
*Secure means that they have patched the internal RSS browser to run in the internet zone and not the local zone or similar to prevent rss attacks.
**I have a few feeds that I want to keep backups of and thus have 10000+ items. Feeddemon chokes HEAVILY on these. For things under 1000 or so, it works fine though.
***I used Feeddemon for the longest time and then wanted to upgrade. The problem is the new version REQUIRES integration with newsgator AND phones home. The program is still a really great RSS Program but these were two features that I definitely did not want. There is also a cap of 19999 items and it's memory usage shoots through the roof on anything over 5000 or so. There are also some very weird bugs.
If you can still find a copy of it, Kerio Personal Firewall 2.1.5 (aka 2.15) (The last one before it became bloatware.)
Upsides: Free license, low memory foot print, very advanced control over the firewall.
Downsides: There are a few security holes (DOS only, no remote), minor issues with some setups, and it is 5 years old and out of development.
Anti-virus: They all are basically the same amount of suck somewhere. The best three (IMTSO) (plus one) are basically:
AVG: It's free, it works, decent detection rates.
Kaspersky: You have to pay for this one but it has the highest wild detection rate I saw. On the few systems that I saw it, it was pretty small memory wise.
F-secure I am going to recommend this one based on a handful of experiences and based on what they are producing. Its pay, but the few systems I saw it on, it had a pretty low memory footprint, was decently fast, and got most things. The thing is, they are the ones with new heurestics and rootkit detection in their latest version which sounds like it will increase their wild detection rates by a lot.
+1: If you happen to go to a school that has Norton Corporate, that is one of the best engines out there but the detection rates can be sucky.

You also forgot to mention Mozilla Suite which has only 1/2 the vulns that are in Firefox (not based on the 1.5 code), is far more stable and reliable and its successor Mozilla Seamonkey which has the other 1/2 (based on the 1.5+ code).

For the former, use MIDI sequencer of some kind. Cakewalk comes out as the first pick program for me. It also has options to add wav audio to add any sound of your choice. It's been several years since I've touched any MIDI sequencers though. For the latter, check out Audacity (free) or CoolEdit (expensive).
RSS - I don't read very many feeds, but I'm using Thunderbird. After going through multiple stand-alone feed readers, I've decided I like this setting the best.
IRC - I've made my switch from mIRC to x-chat, and I've been very happy with it. The official version of x-chat for windows is a shareware. Because the source is still available for free under the GPL, there are other free versions available, such as the one by Silverex. It does have its own quirks that may bother some people. It does miss some features that mIRC supports (such as custom background images per window, etc). And not all configurable options are present in the preferences dialogue, so you need to configure them using /set command. Even with these drawbacks, I still like it better than mIRC.

Simple... and I don't have to do a thing...
Thanks bayoab...
*reps bayoab*
I'll add the other 2 as alternatives...
I personally don't use OO.o... I'm very happy with MsO
However while FREE does not mean better... FREE is very important to most people... Even I like free stuff ... It's Perfection Vs. Money...
The list isn't created by what I want... It just lists some of the information people might be intrested in.
I intend to add MsO (it's what I always use)... but like Photoshop I want to make sure I add all the info as best as I can... so it's going to take me a while... (it's hard to summarize it's functionality... and it's big...)
It's hard to summarize because I want to have a nice clean list with 4 lines (max) of description... of course it's impossible for these types of programs... but I try my best
What do you mean by "pre-mozilla-netscape syndrome".
Now that I think about it... I don't think there's any other free alternative then AVG.
I know I saw a thread about antivirus programs here somewhere... maybe I can put that to some use... hopefully xris didn't wack it
No I'm not a musician... I just want to make little ambient music from bits and pieces. I heard this type before and I feel it's good enough (actually some were really good) I know they used some program to make them... I just wanted to give it a try and didn't want to start off on the wrong foot....
The .au audio format is the one you can place on webpages. (I hope I didn't mess this up)
Then again you can use gifs for favicons now so I guess it might be a similar story for site background music
Oh well... thanks again for the help... *rep++*

Hasn't crashed on me, hasn't taken up too many resources (my system is somewhat dated as a 1.8 GHz, 1 GB of RAM PC).
I use Windows firewall, but keep hearing the name Zonealarm brought up as an excellent program.

IF you BT or any other custom internet use; Zone Alarm will be very annoying and detrimental. Personally due to me computer being a bit custom configured, ZA screwed up my settings with its driver. All IMO.

Regarding the audio related software...
For wave samples I suggest Adobe Audition (formerly known as Cooledit).
It has very good effect-filters (both realtime and pre-calculated), which on sidenote are not allowed in kcl822's karaoke competition
And you can align these samples in a multi track sequencer (even midi, but for midi only, I'ld suggest other sequencers - there are so many good ones, that it is basically your personal taste that decides which one is better... Cakewalk, Cubase - Steinberg, Logic Pro Audio -for Apple-, Magix, TR-XoX -for bass lines and other drum related work (free), Jazz++ (free, see sourceforge), lot more free ones at sourceforge).
If you like it more professional I'ld suggest Ableton Live, it has all the neat stuff that samplers usually have, but since it is meant for easy use in a live performance, the graphical user interface is really clean and tidy. Such that a fast and easy sequencing is possible without the cluttered/packed gui's some samplers have. (and again, it is personal taste that makes one sequencer better than another, you must decide for your own).

Ahh Jinto Lin beat me to it!!
On top of his/her comprehensive list I'll add:
Reason 3.0 - Very user friendly for amateurs. Programs like cubase are a bit hard to pick up.
Fruity Loops - If you havent made music before this ridiculously basic program well get you going.
Rebirth - A nice acid instrument + self contained sequencer, 303s & 808s etc.
None are free if you're planning to pay for them but can be acquired through the usual alternative methods quite easily.

The only RSS program I like is Akregator but thats only on *nix systems. For cross-platform I'd go with RSSOwl. Its java though.
For IRC, I use Irssi. I think there may be a windows version somewhere. When I installed it in Windows I did it in cygwin.

Some minor upgrades to the list...
Added the relatively unknown 7-Zip. (if I'm not mistaken the only FREE File Archiver)
Also added Photoshop (with lots of resources and stuff) and RSSOwl...
Compressed the layout a little...
Added a Security section with (hopefully) all the popular (since that's important for them) and trusted programs... The list is more or less a summary of all the programs that were suggested here (on Animesuki forum/Tech Support) over the years. I also added other programs I found on the sites of the programs suggested (under the premis that that if product x is trusted and is from company y then if product z is also from company y then it's also trustworthy) (most of them are FREE programs/services)
I also added a little n00by security guide.
If you find anything wrong then by al means shoot away
I have tons of other stuff on my "To Check/Add list" (all those audio, irc progys @_@ a couple of other ones.... ), I'll add them a little later...
* * * * * * * * * * *
Ah yes before I forget, while searching the threads in the forum I found some interesting statements. I was thinking of adding them, but after browsing hundreds of antivirus homepages for hours the idea sort of went away.
Anyway... I'm curious just what here is true.
I think there was another... can't remember right now @_@.
Anyway any opinions on this ?(which is true/false)... My brain is fried ATM , can't think straight.

know which settings to use,
keep it updated,
know which part of the registry to set readonly,
... than it is basically as safe as other browsers.
It has a considerably low preload compared to other browsers. It is easier to safely use browsers like Firefox instead.
Maybe I sound too harsh, but in general I like your idea and how much effort you put into this. Maybe you can try to find some reliable sources online, experts who have tested different tools (like FWs and AVs) and base your rating on such sources?
And you need to pay attention to not use (or even consider) phrases like

After reading through the software list again, even within the categories listed, there are softwares I want some considerations for additions.
Not everyone needs the power of photoshop. Heck, extremely limited number of people can really utilize the power of photoshop anyway. Seriously, it's a professional tool, not a casual home entertainment tool. I've never used this personally, but I think Photoshop Elements should be mentioned as well. Priced just below $90, it's much more affordable, and should pose less learning curve.
And for someone who doesn't care about Adobe product, I suggest Paint Shop Pro as a solid alternative to PS. Priced just under $100, it still is an extremely powerful image editor. The feature set should be pretty close to that of Photoshop. (I really can't testify myself, since I don't have Photoshop.) The version of PSP I own supports the plug-in system that's compatible with Photoshop's. In fact, I have Eye Candy plugin loaded on mine. (A tad old, I hardly use it, but... it's there.)
If someone is very very tight on budget, still want a powerful image editor, and don't mind a HUGE learning curve, GIMP should be a valid option too. It's originally made for unix/linux environment, so the user interface will look foreign to Windows users. It took me quite a while to feel even somewhat comfortable with this software. But to me, it's definitely worth it.
I really have to put my plug for foobar2000. It doesn't have as nice of a skinnable interface as winamp (it's somewhat skinnable - if the default interface look boring, check out http://pelit.koillismaa.fi/fb2k/. Or check out Columns UI plugin.). But I choose foobar over winamp for a few reasons. *I don't need a pretty interface for my audio player. Most of the time, this app would be hidden behind other apps anyway. If that's the case, I'd much rather use an app that take up less memory too. *A damn good set of audio filter comes with the standard installation, so you can play back almost any audio types out of the box. (There are still a few others, such as Monkey's Audio decoder which need to be downloaded separately.) *Pretty good audio converter interface. Not that I use this often, but it comes in handy from time to time. *Fair set of filters. The graphic EQ has finer control than that of standard winamp - which can be good and bad. *Damn good tag editor. I'm now in love with the tag editor interface as of 0.9.3. It's the best one I've ever used. *Licensing? Free, opensource. *Gapless playback of mp3 files work better than any gapless plugin for winamp I've tried. Important for live albums and classical albums.
Media Player:
If you list VLC, you may also want to list MPLayer. It's also a player that has a built-in, ffmpeg based decoder, just like VLC. By default, it does not have any type of GUI. But as of current, it has much better softsub support. (Only on the bleeding edge, non-official builds.)
Free Security software:
At least list Sygate Personal Firewall as one of the free alternatives.

Also, from the above... passphrases are the current "in" thing. Whole sentences that you remember and take selected words or even letters from to make passwords. Lastly, slicker sites arent safer. XSS code can be inserted anywhere.

Where's the bling?
Leighton Meester kept her ring finger hidden from view while she and new fiancé Adam Brody went for a stroll with their pups on Sunday in Los Angeles.
The pair looked casual in sunglasses and sneakers, with Brody, 34, wearing a puffy coat and sweatpants and Meester, 27, sporting a sweatshirt, floral leggings and a denim jacket tied around her waist.
The couple are notoriously secretive about their relationship, though they have been spotted together on occasion.
The former Gossip Girl actress and the former The O.C. star worked together on the 2011 film The Oranges.
Meester will make her Broadway debut next year in a revival of John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, also starring James Franco.
