White House: North Korea Threats Deepen Its Isolation [VIDEO]
The White House says North Korean threats to train rocket fire on the U.S. only deepen the country's isolation from the world.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un (kim jawng oon) warned Friday that his rocket forces were ready, quote, "to settle accounts with the U.S." The threat came after nuclear-capable American B-2 bombers dropped dummy munitions during routine joint military drills with South Korea.
In response, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the U.S. has both the capability and willingness to defend its interests in the region.
He called on North Korea to put its people first by ending its, quote, "bellicose rhetoric," abandoning its nuclear program and living up to its international obligations. Earnest spoke to reporters as President Barack Obama flew to Florida for an event.

What's your pick?
by DeadFett » Tue Apr 03, 2012 11:24 pmStory
The first story here focused on Wanda the Scarlet Witch. This half of the book felt out of place. It didn't really seem to have anything to do with Avengers vs X-Men. It featured a meaningless battle followed by Carol convincing Wanda to stop by Avengers Mansion and to say hello. Vision greets her and is a total dick to Wanda. I kinda understand his position though. Maybe this was a set up as to whose side Wanda will chose once the fighting starts. Other than that, this was a very boring read.
The second story starts with a conversation between Hope and Cyclops regarding her nocturnal habits. I wouldn't call this story exciting either but it least it had more of a connection to Avengers vs X-Men than did the first story. Eventually Hope leaves Utopia and gets into a skirmish with the Serpent Society. More meaningless fighting ensues and the story ends with Hope going back to Utopia with Cyclops and the gang. Nothing spectacular here either but slightly better than the first story.
Love Frank Cho's art and that made the $3.99 price palatable. I love the amount of detail he packs into each panel. And of course, the way he draws women is easy on the eyes. I feel his talents were a bit wasted here on the snoozefest that was the two stories in this issue.
Story - 3
Art - 10
Overall - 6.5

by Punchy » Wed Apr 04, 2012 4:56 amAvengers Vs X-Men #0 - 'Scarlet Witch' and 'Hope' - Bendis, Aaron, Cho and Keith
Story - AvX is set to be the biggest event Marvel have done in a while, maybe ever, but at least since Civil War, and the build-up has been all over comics lately, driving fan anticipation to a frenzy. Stories like X-Sanction, The Children's Crusade have the shadow of this event hanging over them, knowing that 'It's Coming' has been a factor in our reading of Marvel Comics for at least the last 6 months.
So now that's it's finally here.... this #0 issue was kind of a disappointment. This issue is not where AvX begins, we don't get to see Iron Man punch Colossus yet. It's just more build-up, which, when we've had months and months of build-up, feels unnecessary.
That said, it was enjoyable, and for newer casual readers who haven't been reading all of the other titles that lead up to this, it provides a great summation of where both Scarlet Witch and Hope are at right now, before everything blows up.
The first story focuses on Scarlet Witch, who in the aftermath of Children's Crusade is now pretty much fully compos mentis and back to being a superhero. She fights MODOK (always good to see MODOK) alongside Ms. Marvel and Spider-Woman, and then heads back to the Mansion where her ex-husband (that's ex, not X) The Vision chews her out. The scene where Vizh tells her to leave was very well-written by Bendis, and anyone who liked it should definitely also seek out Avengers #24.1, which has plenty more awesome synthozoid emotion. The homage to 'even an android can cry' was a little on the nose, but it worked.
The second story is about Hope, the so-called Mutant Messiah and soon-to-be-Phoenix. She butts heads with Cyclops, her kind of grand-father about how he never tells her anything about why she's so special, then flies off to kick some Serpent Society ass. I enjoyed this story more than the Scarlet Witch one, because I feel that Jason Aaron has a better handle on these characters than Bendis does on the Avengers he focused on in his story, he may have written like 200 Avengers comics, but most of them haven't had Vision or Wanda in them. The fight between Hope and the Serpent Society was very well-done, and shows to any new readers just who Hope is, she's a tough fighter, not just a Jean Grey clone, and demonstrates just why the prospect of her becoming Phoenix is so worrying.
The issue ends with a shot of the deadly cosmic fire-bird, and sets us up for next week's #1, which hopefully should get things rolling with the As actually starting to fight the Xs. This issue was a let down in some ways (I just wanted to get to the fireworks factory!), but it's also pretty important context for a very important event. Next week the bloodbath begins, but for now, the two sides are allies, this is our last chance to see them like that. After this issue, things will never be the same again!
Until the next event.
Art - Frank Cho is one of my favourite artists, he's often unfairly criticised as a cheesecake artist, and yes, while he does draw very attractive women with large breasts, he also draws everything else brilliantly. His MODOK is awesome, his depictions of the male characters is also very strong, and his backgrounds are detailed and interesting. He's a top-tier superhero artist, and I always look forward to his work.
Best Line - 'Though yes, I would like my jetpack back'
by BlueStreak » Wed Apr 04, 2012 7:36 amSwamp Thing #8 is my pick, FYI.
by ElijahSnowFan » Wed Apr 04, 2012 10:29 amHoly hell, was the Vision ever a douche in this issue. I don't think Bendis could write that character any worse.
That being said, I enjoyed this issue quite a bit for what it was: A #0 issue. It set the ground rules, let you know enough of what came before and who was who to help out any new readers while still giving enough to existing readers to pull them in and push them forward.
I won't lie: I'm as excited about this as I have been about anything in years. The Avenges and X-Men both have some noble characters, some true heroes. They also have some world-class douches on both rosters.
As a result: I'm not overthinking this. I'm going to enjoy watching Magneto tear Tony Stark a new one, just as I'm going to enjoy Colossus beating the hell out of Thunderbolt Ross.
Oh, the ratings:
Story: 8
Art: 9
Concept: 10 -- It's about time that we got a Phoenix story that made sense -- it's been 32 years!
Overall: 9

Haven't you learned to NEVER underestimate Russell Wilson? He'll find a way... I heard Russell Wilson actually managed to lose his virginity on three separate occasions with 4 different women all while staying faithful to his wife. He can do anything.

Why Man-At-Arms Loin-Cloth & Boot Colours Were Green Instead Of Brown?
Since the vintage figure had brown colour deco on on his shorts & boots, Why green colour was choosed on the MOTUC figure ?
That is how the Horsemen designed the paint scheme and I believe it was based on the original cross sell art, but I will need to check with them.Selling Non-Sub TRU variant MOTUC singles on Matty
Unlike the other Matty toylines, the MOTUC fans have proven that they are both loud AND numerous, so why not sell the TRU MOTUC repaints as optional, non-sub singles on Matty? Most likely, they'll sell out just like everything else MOTUC does.
It is possible this may happen one day. This is why we set up the quarterly repaint slot for MOTUC so we could reissue characters in different looks and decos each year. We did have a lot of ideas for the VS packs, but not every pack had a MOTU figure as the repaint. Some had DCU repaints, others had no repaints at all like the She-Ra/Supergirl pack. None of those ideas made it past a piece of paper so we have not banked any design work or logistics against them.
So unlike say the limbo JLU figures, we don't have these packs sitting around already designed ready to "turn the machines on". Work had not been done so if we executed any of the repaints thought out for this line (on paper for now) it would require a new toy slot and development assigned to it. Development which we do not have at this time.Is there hope of selling the final MOTU vs DC 2 paks on Matty?
Couldn't you sell the final MOTUC vs DC 2 paks on Matty since TRU didn't want them?
The "final 2011 pack" was not developed beyond an idea on a piece of paper. So we don't have these figures ready to "Turn the machines on" like we do with the limbo JLU figures that had design work completed. That is why we can't just offer them on Mattycollector.com. The work was never completed, only ideas on paper.when do subs start?
if i get a sub in july will my first fig be sent in august or do i still have to get them on sale day until january?
The subs sold starting the day of SDCC start in Jan 2012. The Aug figure is part of the 2011 sub sold last yearinstead of re-issues every month, how about offering the TRU 2 pack MOTUC variants?
Now that the DCU MOTUC 2 packs are going to be discontinued, what would be the next steps to making these MOTUC variants available for us fans? Would they be offered at some point of time on the online store?
Not every pack had a MOTU repaint. Some of the packs had a DCU repaint, some had no repaints (like She-Ra and Supergirl). It is possible that some of our "ideas" for DCU and MOTU repaints may wind up in either respective line, but none of the packs past Faker/Bizzaro made it anywhere close to production. So we don't have design or package work complete on any additional repaints, only our ideas on paper. Which yes, could potentially be offered in either DCUC or MOTUC down the road if the repaints are strong enough to work on their own. Time will tell. We had a lot of ideas for this line between Bill and myself!
Bill and I did have quite a lot of ideas for this line into the far future if it continued, but we don't want to announce any (or reveal what the 6th 2011 pack would have been) specifically because some if the ideas were so good we likely will try to work them in somewhere in some line down the road if the stars align. Just because this repaint VS. assortment isn't going forward does not mean DCU and MOTUC repaints are now off the table forever. Likely somewhere someway we might possible find a way to do more. We know their is plenty of actual demand for this!Quick question on possible MOTUC figure?
Hi just wondering if by any chance we could see a Faker/Fakette version of Adora / She-ra as sort of a expanded universe type of thing? "Hordak makes a fake Adora to trick the Great rebellion that she's turned evil again" Thought that it would be a cool concept.
I suppose anything is possible, but with the limited slots we have for MOTUC don't look for anything like this soon, at least not in 2012.Man-E-Faces' secret accessory
Can Mattel reveal the secret accessory of Man-E-Faces close to his sale date?
I ask because if it's a second set of head(s), people like myself, would like to purchase an extra figure.
No. We want (hope) to let fans have the experience of opening the figure and learning what the secret accessory is for the first time!Teela Question
I read your answer about Battleground Teela having been improperly issued as a release for that sale but it was originally going to be Teela for that sale and she was not available.
Does that mean we might see a Teela sale in the near future?
Maybe one day. Nothing confirmed right now.PowerCon Questions and Hopes
I LOVE that you will be at PowerCon Mattel!
2 things:
1. Will you possibly entertain the thought to reveal something exclusively at the con? Will all of the SDCC reveals be at the con as well?
2. It would be AWESOME if at some point all of the the people attending the con could vote on something like we have done in years past with Panthor's flocking and Swift Wind's color. It makes sense since you have some of the biggest and most diehard collection of MOTU fans in one place.
We are still working on our plans. We will for sure have new figs to reveal, but no plans at this time for any product to be sold. As for a vote, anything is possible but nothing is locked in at this time.MOTUC sub
is the quarterly figure variant for $20 (four times a year) now gone? it is not listed in the price breakdown.
The sub will contain 12 monthly at $20.00, 4 quarterly variants at $20.00 each, 4 Beasts/Multipacks (1 at $30.00, 2 at $40.00 and 1 at $60.00). There will also be a subscription only figure covered by the $20.00 sign up fee.
Convention items, special items for 2012 events, potential vehicles, potential weapons paks or other one off items may or may not be added to the 2012 line but non will be part of the sub.Why wont the two SDCC Matty panels be in the same auditorium?
I was looking over the programming guide and realized that the Mattypalooza and DC Mattel panels will be in two seperate rooms at SDCC this year. This is a pretty big inconvenience if the rooms are not close to each other and I was just curious why this choice was made.
SDCC makes this assignment. Mattel has zero control over when and where our panels are.

They are simply running out of time, we dont know how far is Impel Down from Marineford and how long it takes to sail there.
Gaolers surely have very powerful and impressive fighters and Shiriyu should be at par with Magellan.
Its good to have exctiting and difficult fights in Impel Down but Luffy simply dont have time.
Not to mention there is Marine cruiser-class battleship(s) and possible vice admiral guarding it... there will be many battles before they can hope to reach sea.
I just love to see Crocodile and I like how he interracts with people and how he will fare with his ex-minions.

i dont think that shiruyu can take them down right now,i mean luffy and crocodile and iva and jinbei and mr 1 and mr 2 thats just to much power for the current ppl that guard impledown,maggelan is very strong theres no doubt but i dont see him beating those guys all together,im sure they will espcape impledown and go to the marine headqurters,the only thing i dont understand is where is white beard?
i mean isnt that the arc of whitebeard vs the marines?
where is whitebeard and why they dont show what he is doing int he meanwhile,and also what about shanks? is he still fighting kaidou?
they should do an episode or 2 that expalins about those charcters....

Did u guys realized something, that the gaolers said about "gaol bullets" so it seem the bullet could do a damage to a logia user…
I have a thought the way they escaped coul be picked up by "coated sunny" with old man rayleigh navigate it....

Even tho ID have numbers and powerful fighters too but its still gonna be one of a task to stop such a tidal wave.
I hope there is some VA still lingering about just outside, would be nice to see some in action.
can't wait!!

It is cool seeing Croc smacking around Impel Down guards like mere rag dolls I love seeing him in action! Jinbei was quite cool too, for some reason his Fishman Karate style some what reminded me of Neji Hyuga from the "Naruto series", and he is just was intimidating and fierce as I had suspected he would be. Also on the intro page (just before page 01) was that supposed to be Vivi and uh...Mr/Ms. 8 (Forgot his name)?

Uh.... we saw Igaram's wife at the end of Alabasta, not long after Luffy defeated Crocodile. Her name's Terracotta. Recall that she was the one who cooked a huge feast for Luffy after he recovered from his battle.....
Anyways, I'd also like to see a stray VA stay behind just so we can see him in action. I kinda doubt that it would be Doberman, Onigumo or Momonga, though.... it'll probably be Strawberry or Yamakaji (and THAT'S only counting on the chance of the whole Buster Call squad being sent to fetch Ace). Heh, if the escape party really DOES have to take down a VA, I suppose that Buggy and Mr. 3 will sneak aboard the ship while the battle is raging on, unaware of the fact that they'll be taking a little trip to Marine HQ......

Maybe this'll be when we get to see Jinbei do something special. I rather like the idea (for example) of the group chasing after the Marine convoy on top of a huge sea monster

I've been waiting for such a thing for a while - for Impel Down to show some weapons specifically designed to tackle Devil Fruit users, particular Logia type.
I wouldn't be surprised to see some of the higher ups have custom weapons for this purpose.

come to think of it... that 'shirryu' sword could be as well designed to be one thing that could cuts a logia user... well we will know for sure in upcoming chapters...
and I hope he will take action in the next fight.. he seems more badass than 'croc'

Well, the possibility of seastone weapons is something that's been speculated for a long time, that's for certain..... but those particular bullets the jailors used doesn't seem to be any good against Logias, seeing as they went right through Crocodile. Maybe they were counting on the chance that he was still wearing those cuffs, perhaps?
Anyway, I'm expecting to see more anti-DF weapons in the future, as well. I'm quite sure that the marines will count on Dr. Vegapunk to create such advanced weaponry.....

BMW M6 Gran Coupe confirmed for the USA in 2013This is not really much of a surprise with the standard Gran Coupe already being sold and the F12/F13 M6 available in the US market as well. It is only natural that the M6 Gran Coupe should follow. The car will mimic the drivetrain offering of the new F10 M5 and F12 M6 (dual clutch transmission and twin turbo S63tu V8) and also may be available with the optional manual transmission for the USA although we doubt it will be a very popular option if offered. Expect it to arrive in 2013 carrying an absurdly high price tag.

I don't understand this car. Don't they already have a large 4 door M car called the M5? Isn't the point of the 6 series to have 2 doors, not 4?
BMW is apparently pricing it so high because they don't see it as a CLS competitor but want to price it up into the Panamera's market. I'll be interested to see if it works, but I just drove the CLS550 last week and it's one hell of a car. The fact that I can get a very well equipped CLS for $75k (71k base) with that monster twin turbo V8 makes the 6 GC a tough pill to swallow. It's $76 base and more like $85k with the options I'd want (actually 91k for all the things I would want, but $85k gives it options that make it directly comparable to the $75k CLS)

There's no sports appeal to that design to me...just looks like a luxury car...drop the M and it would be more appealing personally but to have the M badge it deserves more. Oh well, these new watered down M's will only raise the value of it's true M predecessors.
Well there is something we all agree on. BMW M brand is f***g up. They are going towards more luxury which is away from true M style, but ask yourself this, who is the majority of who can afford these cars? They are the one's who indirectly demand this luxury. So BMW provides it. We can point fingers all day, and not have a definite answer. I've said this for many years. If AMG offered manual gearbox in mass production i would highly consider switching over.
I saw it here in HI in person. The one they have (sold) is exactly as the picture- matte bronze individual finish. It also had some individual contrast color stitching throughout the interior and dash. They say it's purpose is it's "sexier" than the 5. I don't see it, the interior was markedly smaller than the 5 although the car has a lengthy appearance. Sticker was 96.
But hands down the crown goes to BMW. They managed to deliver the same package as other cars, at a hilarious price tag. a fully loaded 640i passes the 100,000 dollars mark. What the hell they were thinking when they were setting the price for this car is beyond me.

Gas leak in Springdale
Staff reports
STAMFORD -- Natural gas leaking into a Hope Street dry cleaner closed Springdale's main thoroughfare late Tuesday morning for nearly two hours and forced the evacuation of two buildings.
The leak, almost directly across the street from the Springdale Fire Company, was called in at 11:15 a.m.
Deputy Fire Chief Tim Conroy said Yankee Gas found the source of the leak directly in front of Discount Dry Clean at 980 Hope St.
Conroy said a heavy concentration of gas followed a pipe into the dry cleaners and the building was evacuated. No injuries were reported. Conroy said the gas took a path of least resistance into the building by migrating along loosened soil.
A lower concentration of gas was detected in a neighboring apartment building at 982 Hope St.; that building was also evacuated.
Police detoured vehicles traveling along Hope Street at Bennett Street to the south and Northill Street to the north.

"Duquesne University Press, founded in 1927, has a long and rich tradition of scholarly publishing in a variety of subject areas. Over the years, Duquesne's editorial program has included award-winning titles in literary studies, philosophy, psychology, and religious studies; its early entry into fields such as existentialism and phenomenology long ago cemented its reputation for books that shape and influence serious thought.
In the early 1970s, The American Scholar commented on "the series of high level books on philosophy which Duquesne University Press has issued," and America magazine wrote: "Duquesne has concentrated on making a contribution in restricted areas. . . . The overall achievement of this relatively small operation has been extraordinary. . . ."
More recently, the Sixteenth Century Journal declared, "For several decades now, Duquesne University Press has been one of our best sources of solid, substantial work in English Renaissance studies. . . ." And the editors of the Ben Jonson Journal have singled out our publications for their overarching high quality, commenting on titles that are "handsome in the ways we have come to expect of books produced by Duquesne University Press," but noting their "real value [which]lies in impressive content and intelligent design."
As we continue through our ninth decade in academic publishing, Duquesne University Press titles continue this tradition, representing a continuing commitment to scholarship, innovation, and the sharing of valuable ideas."

"hough officially founded in 1973, the publishing firm of Arnaldo Forni began its operations back in the early sixties. Ever since then, owing to the quantity and quality of its output, it has held a leading position in the facsimile reprinting market.
The basis of the firm's publishing activities was the long and wide experience of the antique books market of its founder, Arnaldo Forni. The main incentive to transfer this experience from the commercial sector to that of industrial production was the increasing scarcity of antique books in the post-War years, as well as a growing demand, which could never hope to be satisfied by the available supply of original editions. Hence the decision to reproduce the original texts in limited editions, to be sold slowly over the years. Those were also years in which people were rediscovering the pleasure of reading, and particularly of reading books about one's "roots".

by Len Lear
Many people who know a lot more about music than I do, including the editor of this newspaper, have said that the Rolling Stones are the greatest rock 'n' roll band ever. Many other music buffs think it is the Beatles, of course. Some aficionados insist it's Led Zeppelin. "Dead heads" say it's the Grateful Dead, and some misguided individuals from New Jersey insist it's Bruce Springsteen and the E Street band. (They are obviously misguided by virtue of the fact that they live in New Jersey.) My own non-professional opinion is that it is Queen.
For those culturally deprived human beings who are not familiar with Queen, it was a British rock band formed in London in 1970 consisting of Freddie Mercury (born Farrokh Bulsara, lead vocals, piano), Brian May (guitar, vocals), John Deacon (bass guitar) and Roger Taylor (drums, vocals).
Queen's earliest works were influenced by progressive rock, hard rock and heavy metal, but the band gradually incorporating more diverse and innovative styles into their music, as did the Beatles. For example, their amazing "Bohemian Rhapsody," which has often been called the greatest rock song ever (despite the fact that nobody knows what most of the words mean), sounds almost as if it was purloined from a Verdi opera.
Their songs range from a pretty, soft Mercury-penned ballad, "Love of My Life," featuring a harp and overdubbed vocal harmonies; to "Somebody to Love", a gospel-inspired song in which Mercury, May and Taylor multi-tracked their voices to create a 100-voice gospel choir; to "Crazy Little Thing Called Love", a rockabilly-inspired song done in the style of Elvis Presley; to the pounding iconic rock anthems, "We Are the Champions" and "We Will Rock You." Queen also wrote songs that were inspired by genres not typically associated with rock music, such as ragtime, opera, vaudeville and folk.
Tragically, on Nov. 23, 1991, in a prepared statement made on his deathbed, Freddie Mercury, who was bi-sexual. confirmed that he had AIDS. Within 24 hours of the statement, he died of bronchial pneumonia, which was brought on as a complication of AIDS, at age 45. On April 20, 1992, The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert was held at London's Wembley Stadium to a crowd of 72,000, which is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as "the largest rock star benefit concert ever." It raised about $40 million for AIDS charities.
On Friday, April 5, we went to the Keswick Theater in Glenside to see a concert by a Queen tribute band for the second time. We purchased tickets several weeks in advance, and I had no intention of writing an article about the concert. We were just going because Queen's music is so great and so theatrical, and we never got to see the real Queen perform. Our tickets were on row T.
When we got to our seats at 7:12 (the show was scheduled to start at 7:30), we realized there was a problem. There was a man sitting in front of my wife who was about as large and tall as two Philadelphia Eagles' defensive tackles put together. His neck alone was as wide as an SUV. "I won't be able to see a thing," my wife said (except that Mount Rushmore-sized neck and back). I offered to change seats with my wife, but the gentleman's female companion was almost as gigantic as he was. I have no idea how they managed to squeeze into their seats in the first place. Maybe one of them inhaled every time the other exhaled.
"You have to go talk to the manager and ask him to change our seats," my wife said. I was not thrilled at the prospect of finding a manager among the 1500 rock fans who were pouring into the theater, and how would a manager even find two seats in this sold-out crowd?
Trooper that I am, I walked up to an usher and asked to speak to the manager. She directed me to the box office, where a woman inside directed me to a ticket-taker, who directed me to a security guard, who sent me back to the ticket-taker. At this point I figured I'd be using up more energy than the musicians on stage.
Eventually I did get to speak to a gentleman (and I mean that in the true sense of the word) who was very sympathetic, despite the fact that he probably has to deal with dozens of wackos like me who always find something to complain about. He said he was an assistant to the house manager, and he actually smiled when I explained our plight. I figured that was a good sign. He said he'd try to accommodate us, that he would check out the lay of the land and get back to me. (I was standing near the entrance.)
It seemed like I was standing there as long as it takes to listen to an entire Queen album, but it was probably about 10 minutes when the gentleman came back, again with a smile (he should work for the IRS), saying, "You're in luck. Not only can I change your seats, but you will be much closer to the stage."
I should point out that I never mentioned my name or pulled out the "reporter card" to get any special treatment. Until he sees this, he will not know that I write articles for the Local. As I mentioned earlier, I was not planning to write an article. I am not sure how he did it, but this humanitarian moved us to much better seats. He explained how these seats became available, but I didn't really understand the explanation. It had something to do with a man in a wheelchair and a guide dog. (I did see the man and the dog.) Right after we were seated (about 7:42), the show started. Could it be possible that the musicians were waiting for us to change our seats before they could start playing?
The concert was, of course, phenomenal, although the sound was turned up loud enough to be heard in Baltimore. I always carry earplugs with me, which dampen sound by about 30 percent, but even with that, it was still really loud. But complaining about the loudness of the music at a rock concert is like complaining that ice cream is too creamy.
So I called the Keswick Theater a couple times last week to find out the name of this Good Samaritan who actually smiled and moved us to the front row of the back section of seats so that we could actually see the stage instead of a massive array of human flesh. I found out that the wonderful man who helped us was named Ray Dyjak, my candidate for King for a Queen Day.
So if you ever find yourself seated at the Keswick Theater behind The Incredible Hulk, ask for Ray. He rocks!

The young maestro was coming. Something special was hanging in the air.
And so the fans, thousands of them, squeezed into the stands around the 18th hole at Royal Liverpool on Saturday afternoon. They knew they needed to be there, to embrace it, to be able to say they saw it.
They know their golf here. They know that their British Open, in history and challenge, is the best of the majors. They have come to tolerate the rest of us as we wax poetic about the Masters and prattle on about the way the U.S. Golf Assn. toughens up its U.S. Open courses.
They just sigh and roll their eyes now when we call their Open Championship the British Open. They know which one is the...

Jackie McNabb: The Joy of Serving at Sea
Jackie McNabb's desire to serve her country is deeply rooted in her family history. The U.S. Navy veteran's father and grandfather served in the U.S. Army, and one of her brothers was a Marine. And, as is the case with many young people who decide to enlist, she saw an opportunity to go out on her own. She admits that veterans' benefits such as tuition assistance were a big draw too.
McNabb, director of Enterprise Systems in Radford University's Division of Information Technology, was born and reared in Gary, Ind. Her first personal experience with the military was in high school, when she became involved in the youth organization Naval Sea Cadet Corps. "It got me hooked," she said. "I wanted to be on a ship and go out to sea."
She enlisted in the Navy in 1980 and was trained as an interior communications technician. Her home port was Charleston, S.C., where she was assigned to the USS Canopus, a submarine tender supporting ballistic missile submarines by providing repair and supply services.
"This was during the Cold War, and submarines were the highest priority strategic deterrent for the United States," McNabb said. "My job was to inspect and repair navigation equipment."
McNabb recalled that some Navy "old timers" did not particularly like having a woman at work on the sensitive equipment, and that made her job hard at times. Her supervisor, a chief petty officer, encouraged her not to argue but to return to the shop and let him know if she was hindered from doing her work.
"He would talk to the submarine captain, and the next thing you know, I would be working again. I have always remembered the way that he worked with people and how he always treated people fairly. He had high expectations, and he didn't allow people to slack off," McNabb said. "We all worked hard to get the job done. It didn't matter if we were the newest recruit or ready to retire."
Through her military experience, she had opportunities to visit 46 states and to see and experience the world from a sailor's unique perspective. After her discharge, she enrolled at Idaho State University, receiving a degree in information technology.
Life at sea was a good fit for McNabb. "I loved being out there where you cannot see land. We didn't get to any exotic locations, but I just loved being out there watching the dolphins and seeing other ships," she said. "Some of the friends I made in the military are some of the best friends I will ever have. If I called them up today and said that I needed help, they would be the first ones to be there, even if I haven't seen them in 25 years."
She also caught the travel bug. When she retires from her civilian job, she said, her dream is to travel to the exotic locales she has never seen.
Military service today is much different, she said. "The military men and women are definitely in harm's way, so that is something that should weigh heavily in a decision to join the military. Aside from that, I would advise young people to be open to new experiences and new adventures. Take advantage of the opportunities available, and don't limit yourself to only what you are familiar with. Go out and make memories that will last a lifetime."

Box Score - Game 1
Box Score - Game 2
Courtesy Babson Sports Information
BABSON PARK, Mass. - Babson College sophomore Andrew Aizenstadt and MIT freshman Torre Swanson traded complete game gems for their respective teams as the Beavers and Engineers split a New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) doubleheader at Babson's Govoni Field on Saturday afternoon. With the split, the Beavers move to 11-9 overall and 3-4 in the NEWMAC, while MIT is now 11-7 overall and 2-3 in conference play.
Game one featured an outstanding pitchers' duel between Aizenstadt and MIT rookie Chris Vaughan. Aizenstadt went seven innings and allowed just one run on eight hits, walked one and struck out seven. The victory improved his season record to 3-1. Vaughan (1-3) suffered the loss despite allowing just two runs, only one of which was earned, on six hits, walking none and fanning four.
Babson scored the game's first run after two were out in the bottom of the first, as senior co-captain Jeff Wojnar doubled into the left field corner, moved to third on an error, and scored on an RBI single to left by freshman Travis Jonasson. The Beavers then tacked on a huge insurance run in the fourth when first-year Sean Cleary doubled to deep center and later scored on a two-out single up the middle by fellow rookie Billy Miller.
MIT finally broke through against Aizenstadt in the top of the sixth, as an infield hit by junior Stewart Park, a walk to freshman Creed Mangrum, and a single to center by senior Thomas Phillips loaded the bases with one out. Rookie Kenneth Lynn followed with a liner to shallow right that might have plated at least two, but rightfielder Miller made an outstanding sliding catch to limit the Engineers to just a sacrifice fly. Aisenstadt then escaped further damage by inducing an inning-ending fielder's choice grounder, and the sophomore righthander stranded two more runners on first and second in the seventh to finish off the 2-1 Babson victory.
Miller led Babson with two hits in the opener, while Park contributed two hits for MIT.
Game two saw Swanson (3-0) spin a complete game victory, allowing just one unearned run while scattering four hits and three walks over nine innings. The rookie righty struck out two in the win while pitching around five Engineer errors.
MIT grabbed a 1-0 lead in the second when senior Steven Nunez doubled, moved to third on a balk, and scored on a sac fly to center by Lin. The Engineers then added another run the following inning when sophomore Dan Hyatt was hit by a pitch, moved to third on a single by rookie Bryan Macomber, and scored on a single to left by Park.
That would prove to be enough for Swanson, who allowed just one unearned run in the bottom of the sixth. After surrendering only one infield hit to junior Peter O'Toole through the first five frames, the MIT righty gave up O'Toole's second infield safety to lead off the sixth. On the same play, the Babson junior was able to take second on a throwing error - a play that proved to be key two batters later when Jonasson laced an RBI single through the right side.
The Engineers put the game out of reach with two runs in the seventh and two more in the eighth. Senior David Nole accounted for the first run of the seventh when he homered over the wall in center, and sophomore Will Blackman drove in the other with a bases-loaded walk. Hyatt then singled in a run in the eighth to set up an RBI double by Macomber. That gave the visitors a comfortable five-run cushion, and Swanson allowed just one hit in the final three innings as MIT claimed the 6-1 win.
Nunez finished 3-for-4 with two runs scored in the nightcap for the Engineers, while Hyatt went 2-for-2 with three runs scored. Macomber also added two hits in the win, while O'Toole posted two of Babson's four hits in defeat.
Wojnar (1-2) started and took the loss in game two for the Beavers, giving up four runs on eight hits, walking three and striking out three in 6.2 innings.

Spotswood High Couple Will Be Laid to Rest Together
The Spotswood High School couple that died together in a car crash Saturday night will be laid to rest together.
Jeffrey A. Szatkowski, Jr will be laid to rest with the "love of his life," Nicole Surace, at the Holy Cross Burial Park in South Brunswick on Thursday following separate funerals.
Friends last night held a vigil in the parking lot of the Spotswood Municipal Building according to the Star-Ledger, capping a day of mourning at Spotswood High School, where Szatkowski was a senior, and at Monmouth University where Surace was in her first semester as a freshman marketing major.
Their sudden death has deeply affected the communities that make up the Spotswood High School district. At a makeshift memorial at the crash site on Dutch Road,East Brunswick Chief of Police and Director of Public Safety William Krause sadly read a tweet Surace made on Thanksgiving Day according to MyCentralJersey.com
Grieving In Small Groups
Small groups of students are being allowed to "safely" gather at the crash site alongside the narrow road which connects Millville and Spotswood.
Spotswood High School was closed to the media to allow for privacy and counseling. Monmouth University President Paul R. Brown called Surace's death "truly tragic" reports the Patch of West Long Branch.
According to her obituary, Surace was a member of the Monmouth Community Service Club and helped serve Thanksgiving dinner at a shelter. Szatkowski "proudly" wore #7 for the Spotswood Chargers football team and was selected to the Heroes and Cool Kids program, an anti-bullying program at Spotswood High School.
A wake for Surace will be held at the Bronson & Guthlein Funeral Home of Milltown on Wednesday from 2 p.m - 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. - 10 p.m. Her funeral is Thursday at 11 a.m. at St. Bartholomew Roman Catholic Church in East Brunswick.
Szatkowski's wake is at the Brunswick Memorial Home in East Brunswick from 3 p.m. - 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. on Wednesday; the funeral is also at the funeral home at 11 a.m. on Thursday.
Donations in Surace's name may be made the the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Szatkowski's family is accepting doantions to the Jeffrey A. Szatkowski, Jr. Memorial Scholarship Fund, 14 Lakeview Drive, Spotswood, NJ 08884.

I think we should start calling Pennsylvania the Stone Age State instead of the Keystone State. The fact we continue to cling to antiquated methods of doing things in our state — state liquor stores, toll takers on the turnpike, closed primaries. Let us move into the next century along with the rest of the country.
The fact we have the largest full-time Legislature in the country, and the most expensive group of "good old boys" determined to hang on to their cushy jobs and fat pensions, cheap health care and per diem is one reason we cannot move out of the dark ages.
To state as I have recently read in the papers that the people want to keep the state stores is ridiculous. Fat campaign contributions from special interests keep this dinosaur on life support. Let us bury this beast then we can see about passing a law, as some states have, to prevent teachers from going on strike when school starts.

03.27.13: The CCRI basketball teams' season ended March 9th in the District 2 Championship to the Tribunes of Monroe Community College in Rochester, NY in an 85-78 to end their season with a 20-12 record. Recently, the Knights did, however, receive some very good news with two of their stars earning All-Region XXI honors: Co-Captains: Desmond Williams (Torrington, CT) and Bryan Yarce (Cranston, RI) were both honored for the second year in a row as All-Region selections. The duo led the Knights to a 51-17 record as player for the Knights over their two years at CCRI.
As a sophomore Williams was a Co-Captain and was just as impressive as he was in his freshman campaign. He and Yarce led the Knights to an impressive 20-12 record and second Region XXI title in two years. Williams was a prolific scorer for the Knights who was ranked No. 6 in the nation this year by the NJCAA averaging 22.7 points per game and ended his career as No. 4 all-time scorer in CCRI history with 1,332 career points. In his sophomore year Williams scored in double-figures 26 of the 27 games he played in including erupting for 30 or more points five times and 20 or more points 17 times. For his efforts Williams was also honored as the Steve McDonald Award winner as the DIII/CC Co-Men's Player of the Year by Cox Communications for the second year in a row.
As a freshman Williams came into the season as a mid-major Division I recruit and has quickly elevated his stock to a high Division I talent. Williams charted double-digit scoring in 33 of his 35 games played with his season-high of 41 coming in the NJCAA Division II National Championship semi-final 83-78 victory over South Suburban College where he put up the ridiculous stat line of 41 points, nine steals and eight rebounds to lead the Knights to the National Championship game. Williams averaged 20. 6 points per game ranking him No. 17 in the Division II NJCAA men's basketball while adding 3.1 steals to rank No. 10 in the NJCAA. Williams and backcourt mate Bryan Yarce where a formidable one-two punch and quite possibly the best back court in the Nation. Williams also averaged 2.7 assists and 4.7 rebounds per game to help the Knights. Desmond was named NJCAA Division II men's basketball player of the week for the week of February 1st. He was also named to the All-Tournament team at the NJCAA National Tournament in Danville, IL, where he helped lead his to a second place finish. In addition, he was named First Team All-American by the NJCAA.
As a sophomore Yarce continued to be "the creator" while starting 30 of the 32 games for the Knights. Yarce was ranked No. 7 in total assists with 191 and No. 8 by the NJCAA in assist per game with 6.4. Yarce was also ranked No 30 by the NJCAA with 70 steals on the year. In addition, he raised his scoring average to 12.3 points per game. Also during the year Yarce was named NJCAA Division II National Player of the Week for the week of November 12th-18th when he helped spearhead a Knight's 22 point comeback versus Cuyahoga CC when he scored 22 points with seven assists and seven steals. The bottom line was whatever the Knights needed Bryan delivered!
As a freshman Yarce led the Knights' offense as the floor general. Yarce is one of the most secure ball handlers in the nation as evidence in his eye-popping four to one assists to turnover ratio with an amazing 233 assists to just 58 turnovers in 34 games played. Yarce averaged 6.9 assists to just 1.7 turnovers over five more assists than turnovers per game. Not only did Yarce covet the ball well, but he, along with his backcourt mate Williams were instrumental in forcing turnovers, averaging 2.7 steals per game to rank him No. 14 in nation in steals. Yarce is usually one of the smallest players on the court in stature but one who leaves the biggest impression often times without putting-up the big scoring line though he does score 7.6 points per game his main objective is to get the ball in the hands of the best scoring opportunity for the Knights.
Head Coach Rick Harris commented about his talented duo "Bryan and Desmond will go down as one of the greatest backcourts in the long history of outstanding players/guards to play here at CCRI. The 51- 17 record with two N.E. Championships, one District Championship and a NJCAA DII National Finalist position over the past two years speaks for itself. On the court this tandem displayed a beautiful connection amongst each other. They complimented each other and the rest of the team perfectly as well. Most importantly their greatest interest was the success of the team first and not their individual accomplishments. My staff and I have been very fortunate to work with such a talented duo. Off the court you would never know how talented they were. They are gentleman and great people to be around. In my coaching lifetime I doubt I will ever coach such a talented all around duo again!"
The Community College of Rhode Island, New England's largest comprehensive community college, enrolls nearly 18,000 students in credit courses and thousands more in non-credit and job training classes. Its athletic program boasts 12 varsity programs and an academic support program for all student-athletes.

Yes, these girls may be called "rich bitches" from time to time but their the only girl you'll find that have class, and the confidence to "bitch" at the appropriate moment. We love to drink and we don't deny it. We get the boys but don't need them to survive. We're smart, sexy, and know how to get what we want and NO ONE can rock the mini skirt like we can...Our friends are our friends til the end and no matter what life brings we know how to take it...We may be priveledged but we're not complete snobs, and we don't need or want a handout from anyone...We're daddy's girls, we're classy girls, we're DRINKING girls, and we're proud to say we're Atlee Girls!

More news about: St. Thomas
Oct 29, 2011
The No. 3-ranked Tommies (9-0 overall, 7-0 MIAC) used three interceptions and eight tackles for loss in another rock solid defensive day to fuel Saturday's 20-7 home win over Gustavus in MIAC football play at O'Shaughnessy Stadium.
St. Thomas claimed the conference's automatic berth into the NCAA playoffs -- the program's third consecutive postseason trip. UST also clinched a share of the MIAC title, St. Thomas' first back-to-back MIAC football crowns since 1948 and 1949. UST will attempt another repeat 10-0 regular season when it plays next Saturday at Carleton.
The Tommies, who outgained Gustavus 339-212 in total offense, allowed just 27 points in five October victories.
UST raced to a 13-0 lead in the first eight minutes on two Dakota Tracy TD passes. The score stayed the same until Colin Tobin's 15-yard touchdown run on the last play of the third quarter built a 20-0 lead.
A fourth-down roughing-the-passer penalty on St. Thomas kept a fourth-quarter drive alive. The Gusties converted with an 8-yard pass from Logan Becker to Elliott Herdina for a TD, capping a 13-play, 85-yard scoring drive. The PAT kick made it 20-7 with 8:42 left.
The Tommies blanked Gusties on two late possessions, the latter capped by Jack Gavin's second interception of the game at the UST 6-yard line.
Fritz Waldvogel scored his 40th career TD, a 27-yarder to make it 13-0. He finished with seven catches for 108 yards. Tracy passed for 188 yards and rushed for 58 yards and was responsible for 17 of UST's 22 first downs (11 passing, six running).

didn't send in his letter of intent until early afternoon.
Hunt, who got offers from numerous schools, including Nebraska,
UCLA and Washington, had 32 tackles, two forced fumbles and two
fumble recoveries as a senior as Westlake High School. He also ran
for 404 yards and five touchdowns as a running back.
Hunt was the highest-ranked player in Oregon State's 2013
recruiting class, but the Beavers and coach Mike Riley are known
for finding overlooked talent. Brothers Jacquizz and James Rodgers
weren't highly recruited, nor was Jordan Poyer, who finished his
college career this past season as one of the most decorated
cornerbacks in the school's history. Hunt had said he wanted to go
to Oregon State because of Poyer's success.
Aside from Hunt's tardiness, much of Riley's 2013 recruiting
class came together as expected.
Included was quarterback Kyle Kempt of Massillon, Ohio, who gave
his verbal commitment Jan. 26. Kempt had committed to Cincinnati,
but the offer was rescinded when Tommy Tuberville became head
"Wanna thank God through all this, I'm keeping the orange and
black and committing to Oregon State! Go Beavs!" Kempt posted on
Kempt, at 6-foot-5 and 200 pounds, threw for 3,056 yards and 32
touchdowns his senior year at Washington High School, becoming the
school's leading career passer. Kempt grew up in Oregon and played
at Aloha High School his freshman year.
Riley said Kempt had been on Oregon State's radar back at Aloha
and that he was happy to find that the young quarterback was
interested in the Beavers.
"He's smart," Riley said. "He knows our offense, he watches
our film. He knows he's a good fit."
Oregon State was the surprise of the Pac-12, rebounding from 3-9
in 2011 to a 9-4 finish this past season. The six-game turnaround
was the best in school history. The Beavers were ranked No. 20 in
the season's final AP Top 25.
One interesting note for the Beavers' 2013 recruiting class is
that it includes no players from the state of Oregon.
"We tried for a few guys from here in Oregon," Riley said.
"We recruited them hard, but they elected to go elsewhere."
The Beavers, typically strong at recruiting in Hawaii, landed
two from that state: 6-foot-4, 240-pound defensive end Titus
Failauga from Pac-Five High School in Honolulu, and 6-foot-2,
225-pound Manase Hugalu out of Kealakehe High School,
There were four wide receivers in the class, including 6-foot,
190-pound Hunter Jarmon from Waco, Texas, who had 93 catches for
1,470 yards and eight touchdowns last season at Midway High School.
He joins Californians Walter Jones from Redlands High School,
Jordan Villamin from Etiwanda High School and Victor Bolden from
Los Osos High School.
"This wide receiver group, they're good football players,"
Riley said. "Some of them are `fly sweep' guys."
But Riley was most pleased with his new defensive backs, all but
one of whom are from California. In addition to Hunt, the Beavers
also got safeties Justin Strong from Summit High School and Brandon
Arnold from Crespi High School, and cornerbacks Steven Nelson, a
junior college transfer from College of the Sequoias; Charles
Okonkwo, from Summit High School; and Corey Lawrence, from Del City
High School in Oklahoma.
" I think this is one of our best defensive back classes
ever," said Riley, crediting secondary coach Rod Perry for Oregon
State's success with the position.
