After the board voted against the proposal, both street safety advocates in favor of the plan and business leaders opposed to it said all eyes were on Van Bramer.
Last week, the Queens councilman announced that he won't support the plan.
"I don't believe we can move forward with this DOT plan at this time," Van Bramer said. "The DOT's plan, while changed a few times, still failed to gain enough support among residents, community institutions, elected officials and Community Board 2."
DOT came up with the proposal after the death of Gelasio Reyes, who was killed by a drunk driver while biking on 43rd Avenue last April. Van Bramer and CB2 chair Denise Keehan-Smith were among those who called for a protected bike lane on the corridor.
The controversial plan would add protected bike lanes along Skillman and 43rd avenues, along with pedestrian islands and other street safety measures. But the plan would have also taken away a total of 116 parking spots, to which business owners, residents and the school communities objected.
In his extended statement, Van Bramer made it clear he continues to believe a protected bike lane would make the street safer.
"For me, the most important duty as an elected official is to protect lives," he said. "Each time someone dies in a crash on our streets, it must be our duty to respond and improve safety."
But the councilman blamed DOT for their "disastrous" initial community outreach, which made "this process even more painful."
"I wanted to have a meaningful period of community engagement so all could be heard and no one could say anything was rushed," he said. "And we had that process, often difficult, and sometimes ugly. But we had it."
Van Bramer added that he rejects the "vilification of cyclists" and reiterated his support of bike lanes generally. He said he remains committed to what he promised Flor Jimenez, Reyes's widow, which is a protected lane on 43rd Avenue.
"I urge all of us to listen to each other, respect our differing viewpoints and, above all else, put the safety of each other first," he said. "The quest for safer streets must continue."
The councilman concluded his statement by saying that there was "near unanimity" among opponents of this plan that there should be a protected bike lane on Northern Boulevard.
"That's some progress, but I hope we can continue to do more to build even more support for comprehensive street safety measures, including protected bike lanes," Van Bramer said.
In response to the councilman's decision, Paul Steely White, executive director of Transportation Alternatives, said in a statement that denying Sunnyside residents of safety benefits is a "troubling shift in priorities."
"His backpedaling on a previous call to install protected bike lanes in this corridor is disappointing," White said, "and flies in the face of Vision Zero and his record."
Van Bramer's opposition to the project can still be overridden by the mayor, who has ultimate say over the project.
When asked about the project on WNYC two weeks ago, Mayor Bill de Blasio said he "has no problem" with overruling a community board's vote, which is advisory, in the name of protecting lives.
"I do like to hear from communities," de Blasio said. "I do like to see if we can balance concerns and get people to hear that we're actually trying to adjust where we can for real and honest needs.
"But we're not going to give in to some loud voices who want to keep the status quo in place that actually endangers people's lives," he added. "We're going to keep building the Vision Zero model."

Friends may have ended well over ten years ago, but Rachel Green is up there with the likes of Kelly Kapowski, Carrie Bradshaw, and Serena van der Woodsen when it comes to TV's best-dressed characters. While we were all jealous that Rachel managed to land a job in fashion buying with little to no experience (we're not still bitter about that, promise…), we were even more jealous of her impeccable style.
Jennifer Aniston's hair and wardrobe pretty much defined 90's fashion. Now, thanks to the recent resurgence of some of the decade's most popular trends, it's no longer embarrassing to admit that we still want Rachel Green's style (and hair). With hundreds of episodes under the show's belt, it was difficult for us here at Looker to narrow down Rachel's best style moments on Friends – but we powered through – for you – to select the top Rachel Green outfits that we'd still rock in 2017.
Rachel was pulling off the short dungarees and white kicks look long before Alexa Chung came on the scene. The slight acid-wash effect on the denim is very 90's, but the striped tee and navy blazer give it more of a nautical feel that makes the outfit more wearable; over 20 years on.
Take your style cues from Rachel in this velvet cami and long sleeve tee get-up, to learn how to layer like a pro. Velvet's often associated with vampy Autumn/Winter looks, but Victoria Beckham and Sies Marjan's SS17 runways were awash with the material, giving it a more laid-back appeal.
A denim waistcoat never looked so good, sorry Status Quo! Worn open or buttoned – the cover-up is such a versatile piece to layer over dresses and tee's or tucked into skirts a lá Rachel who gave her black maxi dress more of a daytime feel by pairing it with a button up waistcoat.
This has got to be one of Rachel's most show-stopping looks on the show, Ross was weak at the knees when he caught sight of her in this and we were right there drooling alongside of him. Such a simple look with maximum impact.
Cropped tie-waist shirts are all the rage right now and this all black number wouldn't look out of place on any fashion blogger's Instagram feed. Buy a regular length shirt rather than cropped, so you can button up the shirt and tie the bottom yourself to give it a more casual/effortless feel.
Rewind to the 90's when everyone wanted to know 'how to dress like Rachel Green from Friends', and we guarantee a checkered skirt was at the top of their wish list. Even Clueless' Cher Horowitz and Liv Tyler in Empire Records weren't immune to the appeal of a casually cute plaid skirt.
A cami dress paired with battered trainers is one of those rare outfits that looks just as good on us regular people as it does on Supermodels like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Karlie Kloss. Well, maybe not *just* as good but we can dream.
Rachel obviously understood the power of millennial pink 20 years before we were all rocking the sorbet shade. Do like Rachel and roll up the sleeves and tie up the bottom for an effortless feel. Extra throwback points if you pair it with pastel tinted denim trousers. Can't get enough of Rachel's pretty in pink look? Check out our blog on Millennial pink for inspiration on 2017's hottest hue.

Get Outraged – Br. James Koester
Podcast: Play in new window | Download
Genesis 17: 1-7, 15-16; Psalm 22: 22-30; Romans 4: 13-25; Mark 8: 31-38
Those of you who were here when I last preached will remember that I began by telling you how much fun I was having listening to, and preaching from the Gospel of Mark. Mark is fun because he is so breathless. He races us through one scene and then plunges us headlong into the next before we have time to catch our breath or ponder the significance of what has just happened. It's like being doused with a pail of cod water, and before we have time to cry out in outrage we are doused with a second pail of even colder water. Today is no different. We have just been doused with cold water and almost before we have had time to register our shock, a second and third pail of equally cold and equally icy water hits us.
The first pail of cold water came in the few verses before our gospel appointed for today. Jesus and his disciples are in the region of Caesarea Philippi and as they walk, Jesus asks them a question: "Who do people say that I am?"1 The disciples then shout out the various possibilities: John the Baptist, Elijah or one of the other prophets.2 I can almost hear them tossing out the various options. But then I can see in my mind's eye Jesus stops waking, he turns and looks at each one in turn and says, "But [you] who do you say that I am?" I can hear the silence and feel the reluctance but suddenly, probably unthinkingly, Peter blurts out: "You are the Messiah."3 Again, I can hear the silence and the gasps. I see Peter biting his tongue wondering why on earth he said such a stupid thing. But I can also feel the hope hanging in the air, for in those four words are wrapped all the hopes and dreams and aspirations of the people of Israel. "You are the Messiah." This is what God's people having been waiting for, for generations. Can it truly be that the hope of God's people is standing before them?
That's the first pail of cold water, and while we stand there shocked, cold and wet, the second is on its way, and this is where our gospel for today begins. It is here that Jesus begins to teach about his Passion, "that the Son of Man must undergo great sufferings, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed"4 and Peter is outraged.
We have lost, I think, our proper sense of outrage. Sure we get outraged (although I am sure none of us do), when someone snaps up that one parking space we had marked out for ourselves or cuts ahead of us in line. But for most of us, most of the time, we have lost our proper sense of outrage. Perhaps of all the things the Occupy Movement has done is to restore a proper sense of outrage to the public discourse. And that is what happens here. Peter is outraged, not because someone has trumped him, but because Jesus has dashed his hopes. Peter is outraged, not because Jesus has predicted his Passion, but because Jesus has dashed the hopes of God's people. Peter is outraged, so much so that Jesus must rebuke him: "Get behind me, Satan! For you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things."5
Peter and all the people of Israel are eagerly awaiting the Messiah who is longed for and who will be greeted by all (at least all the people of Israel); not only by fisherman and tax collectors but also the elders and chief priests and scribes. The Messiah is not to be rejected but welcomed! The Messiah is not to suffer but to rule. The Messiah is not to be killed but to restore all things. The vision of the suffering Messiah that Jesus holds up is outrageous and the second pail of icy cold water hits us dead in the face.
We have lost, I think, our proper sense of outrage, and what God does is often outrageous for no matter how much we think we know how God will act, God frequently acts in other incomprehensible and outrageous ways. And this is one of them: the Messiah longed for by all will be rejected by all, except by a few raggedy fishermen, tax collectors, prostitutes and their unlikely companions. And that is outrageous.
But God has a habit of acting outrageously for what Jesus proposes here is not much different than what God promised to Abraham centuries before: for Abraham "as good as dead"6 and Sarah's womb barren were to be the parents "of many nations"7. God's promise to Abraham and Sarah was nothing short of an outrageous joke and "Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said to himself, "Can a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? Can Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?"8 God's sense of humour seems to be a pretty outrageous joke.
But again, no matter how much we think we know how God will act, God frequently acts in other incomprehensible and outrageous ways. And this is one of them: that God indeed would keep his covenant with Abraham and Sarah and they would become "the ancestor[s] of a multitude of nations"9.
But even as we stand shivering, shocked and cold from the second pail of icy water, the third is on its way. For we have barely had time to comprehend what Jesus means when he declares that the long anticipated Messiah is to be rejected than he calmly informs us that "if any want to become [his] followers, [they must] deny themselves and take up their cross and follow [him]".1
As outrageous as it is that the Messiah is to be rejected; or that Abraham and Sarah are to be the ancestors of many nations, this admonition to take up our crosses is equally outrageous. It is one thing for God, but now we too must act outrageously. No matter how much we think we know how God will act, God frequently acts in other incomprehensible and outrageous ways, and now so too must we. And all through the ages God's people have taken up their crosses and acted outrageously as they have followed the only One who gives real meaning to life.11
Peter and the other disciples acted outrageously when they left families, homes and jobs to follow Jesus. Antony of Egypt acted outrageously when he sold all his property and gave it to the poor so that he could spend the rest of his life wrestling with demons in the Egyptian desert. Francis of Assisi acted outrageously when he stood naked in the market square having abandoned wealth, and power and family in order to "rebuild God's church". Oscar Romero acted outrageously when he stood by the poor and dispossessed of El Salvador. The Occupy chaplains acted outrageously when the declared that the church belonged in the tent cities of the Occupy Movement in Boston, New York and London and not just in the churches and boardrooms before which they encamped. And each time God's people have acted outrageously they have suffered, and been rejected and sometimes even killed. And the third bucket of ice cold water has been thrown in our faces.
We have lost I think, for the most part, our proper sense of outrage. But I think we should be outraged for no matter how much we think we know how God will act, God frequently acts in other incomprehensible and outrageous ways. Just look for a moment at the history of God: Creation, Incarnation, Crucifixion, Resurrection, Salvation. All of these are ultimately outrageous because each time we think we know how God will, or should, or must act, God acts in other incomprehensible and outrageous ways. Sometimes they are so outrageous that they make us angry. Other times we fall on our faces and laugh. But perhaps the truly outrageous thing is that we are expected to follow suit, and to take up our crosses and follow.
Just when we think we know how we should, or must or need to act God intervenes in our lives and we act in ways that are incomprehensible and outrageous, especially to those who love us most. Yet it is when we take up our crosses and act most incomprehensibly and outrageously that our lives become full of meaning in union with God.
Like Abraham, like Peter, like all those who have gone before us in the way of Christ, we think we know how God will act, yet God frequently acts in other incomprehensible and outrageous ways. We only have to look at the life of Jesus to know that it true. Like Abraham, like Peter and the other disciples, like Antony and Francis and Oscar Romero, God sometimes asks us to act outrageously, even to the point of taking up our cross and following Christ, and when we do we discover that our lives become rich and full of meaning.
So here are a couple of questions for you to ponder today:
Just when you think you know how God should act in your life, how has God acted incomprehensibly and outrageously?
And what incomprehensible and outrageous thing has God asked you to do? Maybe that is where you will find both your cross and your life's meaning.

I too have recently experienced how God is working in my life in ways that I did not expect. Recently, I heard someone mention that our expectations are ego-driven. I try to remember that.
Here three years later I reread this message and have a new comprehension. Thanks for an eye-opening sermon. I do know that God does not always act as we expect him to act. I so agree with each and every paragraph. Thank you, Br. James.
I think one thing which justifiably frightens non-religious people is that religious people often assert that they know what God intends or what God is "doing" in the world and that can be used to justify ANYTHING, and has been used and is used to justify truly horrifying acts. Currently it is used to justify anathematizing and persecuting gay people. (I despair "when will christians just stop persecuting people over issues of anatomy?!") Thank you for your time.
This day and this message paused me to think on my dad, recently departed, who became outraged over the situation of a homeless man who had been robbed of all identification after he had paid someone to smuggle him into the NL. Our EU Christian relatives were outraged my father brought this man home against NL laws as my dad supported him with his own small retirement pension and sometimes asked his church for money or jobs for this man. He tirelessly called and petitioned the government for his behalf. This was not easy for this man also had serious language and depression issues. My dad persevered in the face of our outrage ….as we felt my dad was being used. It occurred to me halfway through that my dad was being Jesus as best as he could and I was ashamed at my lack of faith. My dads outrage over one mans plight showed me Christ in todays world. I pray I will be able to channel my outrage as well and be as courageously loving as my Jesus loving dad. Happy Father's day Papa.
How perfect for this time.
Thank you, Br. James.
This sermon spoke to me this morning. Particularly these words:
"Just when we think we know how we should, or must or need to act God intervenes in our lives and we act in ways that are incomprehensible and outrageous, especially to those who love us most. Yet it is when we take up our crosses and act most incomprehensibly and outrageously that our lives become full of meaning in union with God."
Are those of us who live unremarkable lives graced with tiny outrages?
I see outrage as something negative and/or offensive. To be shocked or extremely surprised seems to be a better description in my mind. But who am I to question a Biblical scholar? I like your comparison to being hit with cold water! So much of the gospel does exactly that! We have to shake ourselves and take a second look! Perhaps the message from Jesus was indeed outrageous to those unaccustomed to such a message! Thank you for this food for thought.


text: Introduction Review Units Numerical answers do not mean anything unless they are labeled in proper units All answers must be labeled in proper units We will use different units for 3 primary diff. Types of measurements Length Time mass Length, Time, & Mass Each of these diff types of measurements has many different units Ex. For Length… METRIC---- Meter (m), centimeter (cm), kilometer (km) Standard---- Foot (ft), yard (yd), mile Ex. For time Sec. (s), min (min), hour (hr), year (yr) Ex. For mass… METRIC Kilogram (kg), gram (g), milligram (mg) Standard Pound (lb), ton (tn) Will almost always use Metric units, …. Standard units will only pop up once and awhile Will not have to do much converting of units in this class, but still need to be familiar with different units Converting Units SI Base Units--- the standard unit a quantity is measured in Quantity Length Time Mass Base Unit Meter Second Kilograms Symbol m s Kg** Metric Prefixes- smaller or bigger divisions of base units Name Sym How it relates to bol base unit From prefix to base From base to prefix KiloBase Unit CentiMilliMicroNano- k 3 to right 3 to left 2 to left 3 to left 6 to left 9 to left 2 to right 3 to right 6 to right 9 to right cm m µ n x 1000 x1 x 1/100 x 1/1000 X 1/1,000,000 X 1/1,000,000,000 Examples of Converting units Name Symb ol How it relates to base unit From prefix to base From base to prefix Kilo- k x 1000 3 to right 3 to left Base Unit x1 Centi- cm x 1/100 2 to left 2 to right Milli- m x 1/1000 3 to left 3 to right Micro- µ X 1/1,000,000 6 to left 6 to right Nano- N X 1/1,000,000,000 9 to left 9 to right 1.2 mm = .0012 m 25 km = 25,000 m 13 g = .013 kg 5.43 kg = 5,430,000 mg 13.4 mm = _________m 35 kg =__________ g 490 g = __________kg ** Note-- Units for Time do not use prefixes… sec, min, hrs, days, years ……. Are units for time…… You should be able to convert between these fairly easily 60 s = 1 min 60 min = 1 hr Ex. 120 sec = 2 min 210 min = 3.5 hours 24 hr =1 day 365 day = 1 yr Derived Units Any unit that is derived from base units All other units are formed from the base units on the previous page Examples m/s ….. (meters per second) ….. Unit for speed m/s2 …… (meters per second squared) ……… unit for acceleration Kg m/s (kilogram meters per second) ……. Unit for momentum Scientific Notation used to express very large or very numbers to express a number in scientific notation, rewrite the actual numbers of the problem as a number between 1 and 10 and multiply it by 10, to a certain power. takes the form: M x 10n The power to which 10 is raised is how many places the decimal is being moved. small If the power is negative, move to the left if the power is positive, move to the right. 314,000 kg = 3.14 x 105 kg 227,800,000,000 m = 2.278 x 1011 m (the distance from Mars to the sun) Calculator tip: to easily use scientific notation in your calculator, use the E button, which represents what the number is being multiplied by. If you write "6E4," your calculator will read this as being 6 x 104. Scientific Notation Ex 1.2 x 108 m = 120,000,000 m We moved the decimal place over 8 places to the RIGHT since the exponent was POSITIVE 8 Similarly…. Ex. 2 3.75 x 10-5 s = .0000375 s We moved the decimal place over 5 places to the LEFT since the exponent was NEGATIVE 5 Significant figures It is important to not use more digits than you actually know, when you make a measurement. Significant figures –are digits that are "significant," or actually valid. Every number should transmit information. To do this only record significant digits……………. Sig Figs are digits that were actually measured. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8711497301438248744 What digits are significant? THE RULES: 1. All nonzero digits are significant. 2. All final zeroes after the decimal point are significant. 3. Zeroes between two other significant digits are significant. 4. Zeroes used solely as placeholders are not significant. Examples Consider the following examples. 245 m 10.0 g 308 km 0.00623 g Each has 3 sig figs.... No more no less How many do each of the following have? .003 kg 2.00 m 3400 km 505.0010 g Math with Sig. Figs… Sig Fig Rule for Adding/Subtracting When you add/subtract numbers together, your answer should have only as many decimal places as the least amount of decimal places in the problem. In other words… take the decimal of the least precise measurement involved. ex. 15.691mm + 2.2 mm = 17.9 mm even though the calculator answer would be 17.891 mm Math with Sig. Figs… Sig Fig Rule for Multiplying/Dividing When you multiply/divide numbers together, your answer should have only as many significant figures as the least amount of significant figures in the problem. Only take the significant digits of the least precise measurement. ex. 3.561 cm x 2.0 cm = 7.1cm even though the calculator answer is 7.122 cm Problems 22.37 cm x 3.10 cm x 85.75 cm = 5.95 x 103 cm3 3.76 g + 14.83 g + 2.1 g = 20.7 g. How many sig figs. in these numbers? 22.070 = _ 3.10 = _ 0.0750 = _ Answers 5, 3 , 3 Accuracy and Precision - Accuracy describes how well the results agreed with the standard or accepted values or outcomes. - Precision describes how well the results agreed with each other. Identify these lab results as accurate, precise, both, or neither. The accepted value is 10 kg. Group A: 2.1, 8, 17.8, 27.12, 29.9, ______________ Group B: 9.8, 10, 12.1, 11.2, ______________ Group C: 10, 10, 10, 10.5 ______________ Group D: 8.2, 8.4, 8.5, 8.7 ______________ Answers Group A: neither Group B: accurate Group C: both Group D: precise Making Measurements **When taking measurements, all data should be recorded to 1/10 the smallest division on the measuring scale.** th This measurement should be recorded as 1. 54 inches….

Insert 15 sec in for 'x' in the equation and solve for 'y'. Since distance is the 'y' value and time is the 'x' value on the graph 'x' and 'y' represent 'time' and 'distance', respectively. Interpolate – On the above graph how far did the bike go after 5 seconds? Similarly insert 5 sec into the equation for 'x' and solve for 'y'. Again 'y' represents 'distance' and 'x' represents 'time' BECAUSE time is on the x axis of the graph and distance is on the y axis of the graph. 8

All of the hormonal changes that are taking place, sometimes feeling pretty "blah", plus wanting to avoid anything potentially toxic for the baby, mean a beauty routine makeover. Here I've rounded up my top ten favourite beauty rituals for pregnancy which you can try for yourself, whether or not you're waiting for Baby.
1) A soak in the tub Cleopatra would envy
|i love our tub!
You can use any kind of milk - I've got a jar of milk powder in the bathroom, but dairy-free alternatives also work well. Almond milk smells great, and coconut milk will give you an extra moisture boost.
2) I say soap, you say...soup?
I can't overstate how great Jaydancin soaps are. Lavender for relaxing, lemongrass for a zesty morning shower, and oatmeal to sooth a sensitive face. Tons of other kinds, but those are my favourites. Good news - they're also safe for Baby. Bad news - I have to stalk up when I'm in Canada, thanks to a bad experience with Spanish customs - an official mistranslated "soap" as "sopa", which means "soup". Now, who would mail a box full of soup across the ocean, or anywhere, really, is beyond me, but the false friend translation meant my package got held up at customs and I got called in to do some explaining and pay a hefty fine (which was waved once everyone was satisfied there was indeed no soup in there...).
3) Butter is better, and not just on toast!
A combo of shea butter, coconut oil, and a few drops of essential oil has been keeping my skin hydrated during this dry, dry winter. According to research, genetics is the deciding factor in the stretch mark department, but so far I'm free of those, and this all-natural mix can only be helping.
4) Buff Stuff
|my favourite, from the body shop
5) Best foot forward
No foot massages, doctor's orders, unless it's someone who can avoid reflexology points that could trigger an early arrival. Yikes! I take care of my feet at home - a soak in Epsom salts and warm water not only keeps swelling at bay, but is a way for the body to absorb magnesium, which helps prevent leg cramps. A nice scrub, a gentle massage with sesame seed oil, pop on some socks and zzzzz.....
In Spain, it seems Epsom Salts are more popular for digestive issues than muscle soaks, often found in very small packages. However, you can get Epsom Salts (Sales de Epsom) for about 5 euro for a kilogram bucket at Drogueria Manuel Riesgo (online or in Madrid, calle Desengano 2).
6) A farmaceutical intervention
My face went crazy in the first trimester. Acne (thanks, hormones) and dry, dirty air (thanks, Madrid) meant a lot of redness that nothing would clear up except Fresh Farmacy soap from Lush. Good stuff, that, and not a lot of junk on the ingredients list.
7) Stand Tall
This one's easy, free, and it's good for you even if you're not pregnant. Good posture means looking more confident, clothes falling properly, space for Baby and being proud of your height, whatever it may be.
8) Face Time
I stick to a pretty simple makeup routine - for work, a really good moisturizer. For a fancier look, I've been working on keeping it simple and fast, practice for when Baby's here. A mineral powder foundation, blush, mascara, and some colour on the eyes. I have a "look book" for easy reference and inspiration, a collection of looks I like that I've collected from magazines,
9) Taming the Mane
My skin doesn't like the dry climate, and neither does my hair. I also haven't experienced the pregnancy luscious locks, either. Enter, argan oil. I first learned about this "liquid gold" a few years ago in Morocco, and now I am a fan. Wash, spritz on a little oil, and dry and style as usual.
10) Come on, dude, I'm exhausted, and Tyra Banks says the most important item in your makeup bag is a good night's sleep!
I love that quote from Raj in The Big Bang Theory. It cracks me up, and it's never been truer. When I sleep well I wake up fresh-faced and ready to go. My smile comes more easily, I feel more positive, and there's a bounce in my step.
If you've got a home beauty ritual that you love, please share!

Mascherin reaches 40 goal milestone in win over Spirit
Adam Mascherin joined the 40-goal club for the first time in his Ontario Hockey League career as the Kitchener Rangers (43-20-2-0) defeated the Saginaw Spirit (29-28-8-0), 3-2, in front of 6,901 fans at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium on Sunday afternoon.
It was the first time a member of the Rangers reached the 40-goal milestone since Tobias Rieder scored 42 goals in the 2011-12 season.
Mascherin finished the game with a goal and an assist in what could potentially be a first round playoff match-up between the Rangers and Spirit, depending how the final three games of the regular season play out.
Statistically, the Rangers could meet any of the Spirit, Spitfires or Storm in the opening round. The Spitfires (6) and Spirit (7) and remain tied at 66 points after both endured losses this afternoon; the Spitfires in sixth with one more win. The Storm, with 65 points, were idle. Each of the three teams have three games remaining.
Austin McEneny and Joseph Garreffa were the other goal scorers for the Rangers, who wrap up the regular season with two mid-week road games in Guelph on Tuesday and Saginaw on Wednesday before hosting the Storm here on Friday night.
Luke Richardson (23-11-1-0) earned the win in goal, turning aside all but two of the Spirit's 34 shots.
Cameron Lamour (5-6-1-0) took the loss, surrendering three goals on 25 shots he faced.
Cole Coskey gave the Spirit a 1-0 lead at the 4:40 mark of the first period, assisted by Jake Goldowski.
It was the lone goal of the opening frame, which saw the Spirit outshoot the Rangers, 9-8.
In the second period the tables turned in Kitchener's favour, as the Blueshirts got themselves on the board with an unassisted goal by McEneny, his sixth of the season, at 5:53 to make it 1-1.
Just over a minute later Mascherin's 40th – also unassisted – put the Rangers in front for the first time on the afternoon, 2-1, at 6:57.
Through 40 minutes of play it was the Rangers who commanded the shot clock, 21-15.
Garreffa tallied his 12th of the season at 3:32 of the third period to extend Kitchener's lead to 3-1, from Mascherin and Jack York.
Former Ranger Mason Kohn cut the Saginaw deficit to just one, making it a 3-2 game with 4:34 remaining, but it was as close as the Spirit would come despite pulling Lamour with 2:55 to play, then being awarded a man advantage with 42 seconds left.
The Spirit outshot the Rangers 19-4 in the final 20 minutes for a game total of 34-25.
The Rangers were 0-for-2 on the power play, while the Spirit were 1-for-5 with the man advantage.
Mason Kohn (SAG) (3), Michael Vukojevic (KIT) (2), and Adam Mascherin (KIT) (1) were selected as the Three Stars of the Game.
Kole Sherwood, Adam Mascherin, and Connor Hall each wore an "A" and skated as alternates to Rangers' captain Connor Bunnaman.
The Rangers head on the road for midweek games against the Guelph Storm on Tuesday, March 13 at 7pm and Wednesday, March 14 vs. the Sarnia Sting at 7:05pm.
Kitchener's final home game doubles as their last regular season game, as they host the Guelph Storm on Friday, March 16 at 7:30pm for Fan Appreciation Night.
Regular season tickets to all Kitchener Rangers home games are $23.00 each for adults, $19.00 for children 12 and under including HST, and are available in person or by calling the Activa Box Office at The Aud, from Centre in the Square (519) 578-1570 -or- 1-800-265-8977, or by purchasing online here.

Educational Research and Reviews, v11 n4 p141-145 Feb 2016
The present study attempts to investigate the relationship between the multiple intelligences and the academic performance achievement levels of high school students based on Gardner's multiple intelligences theory. This was a descriptive correlation study. To accomplish this purpose, 270 students of high school of Bandar Abbas selected by clustering random sampling, and all of them filled the Gardner's multiple intelligences questionnaire. For analysis of collected data, descriptive statistics including Mean, Standard Deviation, Pearson coefficient correlation and regression were used. Findings of this study revealed that moderate inter-correlation exists between verbal-linguistic and visual-spatial intelligences and academic performance achievement (p<05). Multiple intelligences such as logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, verbal-linguistic, intrapersonal, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal and naturalistic have a significant positive relationship with academic performance achievement of students (p<05). It became clear that multiple intelligences like visual-spatial, verbal-linguistic and interpersonal statistically significant and were able to predict academic performance achievement (p<05), whereas musical intelligence was a tunable negative predicator for academic performance achievement of students.

In a certain village, very long ago, lived a school teacher called Samsar Chand. He lived happily with this wife, parents and only daughter named Khema. Theirs was a close-knit family. Samsar Chand's wife was a humble and noble. Though Khema went to the same school where her father taught but she never tried to use that as an excuse to bully others. Everything was hunky dory when suddenly Kashmir was attacked by some raiders from outside. They looted and mowed down everything that came their way. Their greed for money and gold resulted in killings of many people. In this maniac act of the raiders, one girl got orphaned. These rogues were about to kill this young girl too, but Samsar Chand came to her rescue. She was saved just in time and the goons were handed over to the local authorities.
Samsar Chand asked the orphaned child, "Little girl, what is your name". In a halting and low voice she replied, "My name is Roopa". Hearing her sweet voice, Samsar Chand told her, "Roopa, take me as you father and I will introduce you to my family and my little daughter Khema". Roopa was scared and nervous and could not decide if she should go to a stranger's house. At first she refused the offer and kept crying for a long time. Her life had come to a sudden halt and she did not know if it was right to accept the invitation. Samsar Chand kept imploring her, and, after a long time, she agreed to go along with him. On the long way back home, Roopa kept matching her small steps with those of Samsar Chand while shedding tears. On reaching home, everyone accepted Roopa as a new member of the family. Roopa was glad that they all liked her and accepted her, but Khema had her own share of insecurities. She did not like her family offering so much love to Roopa. She never shared any of her things with Roopa. She never played with her. This friction between Roopa and Khema created a lot of unrest in the family. However, this dislike of Khema for Roopa did not last long.
It was an acute winter time and snow had engulfed the house. The house inside was warm with namdas and gabbas spread in the common room. And everyone got a share of warmth from the local firepot, the kangri. The sun had not come out for days together but on that day it had shone for some hours. Watching this, Khema ran out in the courtyard to play in the snow. No sooner did she step out that a huge chunk of melted snow threatened to take her life. "Run Khema, you will hurt yourself," saying this Roopa rushed to the rescue of Khema and saved her. In this episode, Roopa injured her right hand and could not go to school for some weeks. This changed Khema's attitude towards Roopa and over the course of time, they became the best of friends.
Khema felt incomplete without Roopa. They wore the same dress, ate the same food, played games and studied together. They were like twin sisters. Every day in the evening, grandmother would walk up to the sacred Hari Parbat (ancient temple of Ma Shakti perched atop an old Mughal Fort) for offering prayers. Both the young girls accompanied their grandmother to the temple. After offering prayers to the Goddess, Khema and Roopa would tie a thread around a tree as a mark of their friendship. While tying the thread, they would chant lines with mutual reassurance – "be it chill, rain, snow, floods, famine or summer, may our friendship always be rock solid as it is today. May nothing on earth affect our friendship". This was a ritual that they followed for years together. The threads on the tree had become dull, faded and tattered.
On Shivaratri, both Khema and Roopa decorated the house with their own tender hands. The walnuts for puja were handpicked by both the sisters from the farm. There was something special about this Shivaratri. The complete family danced, sang hymns, played on the tumbaknari (musical instrument shaped like a goblet and made of earthen clay and goat skin which is played on every occasion) and played with haar (mollusc shells used for playing a particular game during the Shivratri days). They invited the complete village for a feast to their place. On the day of "Salaam" (the day after the night of Shivratri), same amount of kharach (monetary gifts) was given to both the girls. Each of them saved it for buying a gift for each other. But destiny had something else in store. A day after Salaam, a major thunderstorm hit the valley. The thunderstorm was followed by heavy rains and floods. Torrential rains took away everything that came in its way. The water level went up considerably. Homes, livestock, human life, farms, market places all seemed to be have been swallowed by water. Samsar Chand and his family had also become the victims of the nature's fury. The whole family was shattered and split apart. No one had any clue about anyone else. Samsar Chand was in the market place, Khema and Roopa were in the farmlands and the rest of the family was at home. Khema and Roopa held on to each other, hands very tight, but one heavy blow of wind pushed them to opposite sides of the road. And there they were further carried away in different directions by the wind and destiny. Life moved on and years passed by but Khema and Roopa had no clue of each other. After the catastrophe, Roopa had moved to Srinagar. She had taken asylum in a missionary school. She began working as a cleaner (sweeper) in the school and earned some pennies for her food. Taking her good conduct into account, she was permitted to study in the same school. Though relatively stable in life, Roopa always missed her old family and the most of all, Khema. Time does not stop for anyone. Roopa, with the blessing of the headmaster of the missionary, got married to a well-read and educated Brahmin boy. Her new house was close to the village where she used to live with Khema. The very thought that she was closer to the village ignited the hope of meeting her sister again. Her in-laws were good to her and she had also developed affection for them. But there was one thing she never disclosed to anyone, not even to her husband. Roopa went to Hari Parbat temple everyday in the wee hours of the morning praying for the welfare of Khema and her family. Since her new house was closer to Hari Parbat, she managed to frisk for 20 minutes and share her sorrow with the Almighty. Roopa went through a flood of emotions when she saw the tattered, faded threads still held on to the tree.
Losing a family, parents, home and a friend can really be traumatic for a young girl. Khema could not come to terms with life. After the floods settled, Khema kept sitting outside her old house, waiting for everyone to come back home, and take her inside. Khema did not move for days together from that place, and became an object of ridicule for the passers-by. Khema, indifferent to everything, hallucinated in her own web of thoughts. She just kept crying all the time and for days together she had not eaten anything. One day, finally she was forced by her hunger to leave that place and look for food. She kept walking and walking for weeks like a nomad. One bright day, she reached the house of an established Pandit family. She stood at their doorstep waiting for someone to come out. An old lady walked out of the door and spoke to Khema, "Yes, young lady, what can I do for you? Who are you?". Tattered and devastated, Khema narrated the complete story of the floods and said "Madam, please give me some work so that I can earn some pennies and eat food. I have been hungry for many days now". The old lady replied, "I will give you food, don't worry, I will give you rice with fish and lotus stem, but dear daughter for employing you I will have to wait for my daughter-in-law to return and help me decide. She has gone to a nearby village for a wedding. But until she returns, why don't you do some cleaning of my garden?" Khema promptly replied, "Yes, of, course, I will".
After many days of working in the Pandit household's garden, Khema realized that destiny had put her closer to the temple of Hari Parbat. The Pandit's house was at a walking distance from the temple. Elated with joy and sorrow, with memories of old times, Khema could not believe the truth. As was expected, Khema started paying visits to Hari Parbat everyday at dawn and dusk. She would go there with the hope of meeting her parents and Roopa. This ritual continued for some weeks. Khema also felt a new hope in her life and was happier than before. But God had more beautiful plans for Khema. The daughter-in-law of the old lady had returned. The Pandit household was bustling with activity. As was expected, the old lady's daughter-in-law stepped out in the garden to check on what was happening. However she could not see the new employee as Khema had left early for the day. The old lady's daughter-in-law wanted to see the girl but for some reason could never have a faceoff with her new employee. This in some way made her suspicious of the new girl. She decided to shadow Khema wherever she would go. So on that day the daughter-in-law followed Khema at the dawn. She tip-toed behind Khema and unmindful of where her new employee was leading her. After a long walk Khema stopped at a particular point and so did the daughter-in-law. With an investigative eye, the daughter-in-law tried to scan her new employee, checking whether she had stolen any valuables from the house. Her concentration on Khema was so high that she did not realize that she had reached the auspicious place of Hari Prabat. Khema unaware of being stalked, bent her head in front of the divine place and, as always, prayed for the welfare of her family and Roopa. She sat there for some time looking for some peace of mind. As Khema turned to go back home, she was aghast to see Roopa standing in front of her. Was it a dream or a reality? For once it was real. All this while the lady who followed Khema to Hari Prabat was Roopa herself. She was the old lady's daughter-in-law. Both of them embraced each other and wept profusely. They shared their experiences of the past few years. Roopa took Khema to her house and introduced Khema as her long-lost sister.

At this point in 1 Samuel's narrative, David has fallen into complete disfavor with Saul. He's living on the run, and nowhere appears to be safe. When he fled to the prophet Samuel, Saul followed him there. So he ran instead to the priests at the tabernacle and received bread and the sword of Goliath, but one of Saul's servants was lurking about, and David didn't stick around long. From there he ran to Goliath's hometown in Gath, and only ran into trouble there.
Chapters 22 and 23 continue to chart his travels (thanks to Generation Word for their sketched maps).
A rough summary of these chapters is as follows: Continue reading

New dangerous goods rail-car rules a boon to Delta manufacturer
Railway equipment company set to reap rise in tank car retrofit business
A Delta railway equipment manufacturer has its eyes on expanded market opportunities resulting from new requirements for rail cars that carry crude oil and other dangerous goods in Canada and the United States.
Railway equipment suppler Kelso Technologies Inc. (TSX:KLS) designs and produces specialized pressure-relief valves for rail tank cars.
The requirements announced May 1 by federal Minister of Transport, Lisa Raitt, and U.S. Secretary of Transportation, Anthony Foxx, call for improvements in tank car valves. Specifications for the new class of rail tank car that transport flammable liquids also require the cars to be manufactured with thicker steel and a jacket with thermal protection.
Estimated cost of the new North American regulations, including refitting approximately 34,850 tank cars in Canada and purchase of 6,265 new tank cars, will be $1 billion over the next 20 years.
Any tank cars used for flammable liquid dangerous goods service manufactured after October 1 must be built to the new standard. Tank cars currently used for crude oil transportation must be upgraded within three years.
Kelso spokesman Maureen O'Hanley Doucette said the May 1 announcement clears the way for the industry to get on with the upgrade of rail company rolling stock on both sides of the border.
"The whole industry has been waiting for this to know what to make: how thick do you want the tank car [walls], how many do we need? The retrofit schedule has been the biggest unknown. There are a lot of unknowns still, but at least everyone can get back to full volume capacity production; it's like having the brakes taken off now."
Raitt said the federal government was delivering on a promise made a year ago to develop a stronger, safer, more robust tank car.
Delivery on the promise also comes almost two years after the worst flammable liquids rail accident in Canadian history, which occurred when 72 tank cars derailed in the town of Lac-Mégantic, Quebec, spilling approximately six million litres of crude oil. Seventy-two people were killed in the July 6, 2013, accident.
Since the Lac-Mégantic tragedy, the transportation of oil via rail has risen dramatically as global and domestic demand for North American crude oil and other flammable liquids has grown and the push to diversify the market for Canadian crude oil has increased.
Stalled expansion of pipeline capacity has also increased the use of rail to transport crude oil.
A Transport Canada regulatory impact analysis statement calculated that shipments of crude oil by rail jumped to 160,000 car loads in 2013 from 500 in 2009.
Meanwhile, a C.D. Howe Institute report released in early April estimated that the annual value of rail shipments of energy and resource products in Canada increased to $123 billion in 2014 from $70 billion in 2002.
Rail accidents involving crude oil and ethanol have increased along with the rise in the number of rail cars transporting dangerous goods.
According to Transport Canada's regulatory impact analysis, there were 144 rail incidents involving dangerous goods in 2013 in Canada, up from 119 in 2012 and up from the five-year average of 133.
It estimated that a typical derailment costs around $13.1 million. The bill for the Lac-Mégantic disaster has thus far been pegged at $1.5 billion.
Kelso maintains that its valve technology is less prone to corrosion and less likely to fail in a derailment than competing valve designs.
In Canada there are an estimated 41,113 tank cars, 28,307 of which are used to transport crude oil.
According to Transport Canada, 34,848 tank cars will need to be upgraded to the new standards.
"The opportunity with the new regulations is the mandate for all of the retrofitting," Doucette said.
In 2010, the board of directors of Kelso, which had struggled financially during the 2008-09 recession, hired business developer James Bond, now Kelso's president and CEO, and overhauled company management. The move initiated Kelso's business turnaround.
According to its most recent annual financial report, Kelso posted 2014 revenue of US$23.8 million compared with US$2.2 million in 2012.
It currently employs 56 people.

Chief Executive Leung Chung-yin is urging pan-democrats not to rush into a decision to vote down an election framework endorsed by Beijing but to try to find common ground, the Hong Kong Economic Journal reported Monday.
"We don't need to estimate the odds of the electoral reform plan being passed and pan-democrats don't have to reject the plan within hours of its announcement," Leung told a media briefing Monday.
On Sunday, the National People's Congress (NPC) announced an election reform proposal that provides for direct election of Hong Kong's next chief executive but gives Beijing control of the nomination process by screening the candidates on patriotic standards.
That makes it impossible for any pan-democrat to be on the ballot, according to pro-democracy groups.
Leung echoed Basic Law Committee chairman Li Fei who said most pan-democrats are patriotic, and urged them to seek common ground, the report said.
"The NPC decision reflects the key principles but does not rule out some people from participating in the election," Leung said.
Leung's remarks were interrupted by protesters demanding real universal suffrage.
Earlier, police used pepper spray to disperse demonstrators from the radical Civic Passion group outside AsiaWorld Expo on Lantau island where Li Fei was holding a briefing.
Some of the protesters attempted to force their way through the barricades to try to get into the conference hall. One demonstrator said police sprayed pepper into his eyes and accused officers of using excessive force.
Local NPC deputies were invited to Li Fei's two-hour speech, including Maria Tam, who was heckled as she was about to talk to reporters.
Raphael Wong, a member of League of Social Democrats asked her: "If Hong Kong people had not voted for you, how would you become an NPC deputy and be able to attend this meeting?".
Tam ignored the question, the report said.

Feast of St Xenia, Deaconess of Rome
AN EDITOR once told me, "Never begin a chapter with a quotation." Now that I have gotten that advice behind me, I turn to the magnificent stylist of yesteryear, Edward Gibbon, who in The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, said this of the young emperor Alexander Severus and his advisors and educators as Rome's decline was sputtering along:
But the most important care of [Julia Avita] Mamaea [his mother] and her wise counselors, was to form the character of the young emperor, on whose personal qualities the happiness or misery of the Roman world must ultimately depend. The fortunate soil assisted, and even prevented, the hand of cultivation. An excellent understanding soon convinced Alexander of the advantages of virtue, the pleasure of knowledge, and the necessity of labor. A natural mildness and moderation of temper preserved him from the assaults of passion, and the allurements of vice. His unalterable regard for his mother, and his esteem for the wise Ulpian, guarded his inexperienced youth from the poison of flattery (1.168-169).
Alexander's character will determine the happiness of the misery of the empire, and one corrupted and corrupting emperor after another – with an occasional man of virtue – is put on display in Gibbon's historic work.
The implication for us is this: leaders form, shape, and sustain cultures. Good leaders form and sustain good cultures and bad leaders form and sustain bad cultures. To swipe and alter words of Jesus, "by their culture ye shall know them." Pastors are culture shapers. This is not to say that congregations don't build culture because congregations both form the culture and help the pastor form the culture. They can also destroy the culture. This is not an either/or, but this book is about neglected themes in pastoral theology and I want to begin right here: pastors are leaders and leaders shape culture.
An entry into the culture pastors can make is with the theme of friendship. Friendship, I contend, is the first step in the pastoral calling.
Pastors and friendships
Pastors pastor people. But 66% of pastors like preaching and teaching far more than working with people! I cite the Barna: "There is a big drop-off from there. One in 10 says 'developing other leaders' is their most enjoyable task (10%), and one in 12 prefers 'discipling believers' (8%). 'Evangelizing' (6%) and 'pastoral care' (5%) bring the most joy to smaller proportions of pastors, and a mere 2 percent say they enjoy 'organizing church events, meetings or ministries'" (The State of Pastors: How Today's Faith Leaders Are Navigating Life and Leadership in an Age of Complexity, 96).
This needs to be repeated because pastors today are known for not having deep friendships with others (Ibid., 38-42). Conjoined with the disconnect of pastors with friendships is the role model so common to the pastorate, though I hear nearly every week of changes in this. I am referring to the pastor as solo pastor. One can spend time pointing fingers or one can propose an alternative, which is what I want to do in examining Paul's co-workers as a network of friends. The implication for us leaps at us before we're ready: pastors today, perhaps more than any time in history, need to become part of a network of fellow pastors. Many pastors burn out and at least some of them could have been preserved had they been a part of a network. A few of my pastor friends are in such a network – they meet annually for a retreat, they preach sermons in conjunction with others preaching the same series or texts, and they e-mail prayers and notes to one another in a network of collegial friendships. We need more of this.
Pastors also need more margin in their schedules because friendship only thrives in the margins of our life. Friendship, like golf and reading for pleasure in essayists like Michael Montaigne or fun-loving writers like Mark Twain, or wandering into a long walk through the forest to see leaves changing colors – friendship, I resume my thought, only finds itself in leisure time, and Americans are some of the worst at leisure in the world. More has been said by many about this topic, but we have space here only to observe that friendship, leisure, and margin are soul mates. Perhaps the pastors will now turn to me to ask if it might be advisable in seminary training for students to become familiar with the history of friendship studies? Yes.

Paul, love and friendship
Those who read Paul's letters carefully know that Paul had ministry associates, and from this point on I will call them both what he calls them – "coworkers" (synergoi) – and what they appeared as in the Roman world – "friends" (philoi, amici). A list includes Priscilla and Aquila, Urbanus, Timothy, Titus, Epaphroditus, Clement, Jesus called Justus, Philemon, Mark, Aristarchus, Demas and Luke. The names known to Paul in Romans 16 is another indicator of the extent of Paul's friends.
Paul inherited a classical theory of friendship that was re-imagined through a covenantal understanding of love and reframed friendship entirely. In other words, Yes, due to his Greek/Roman education in Tarsus he could think in terms of virtue (a term he does not use) and goodwill and accord and trust. But as Jew trained as a rabbi, Paul thought in other terms and it was through these that he approached friendship with his many co-workers. The implication of this difference is that Paul refused to call his co-workers friends.
Is there something in Paul's choice of agape rather than philia for his circle of associates that provides a clue to why he does not call his co-workers "friends"? To understand one of Paul's favorite terms, love (agapao), requires that we dig into the Bible. One of the biggest mistakes made in Christian thinking about "love" is to assume the English (or American) dictionary gives us the meaning. Hence, my English dictionary, says love means "an intense feeling of deep affection." Most dictionaries do the same, including Samuel Johnson's Dictionary, where the #1 definition is "to regard with passionate affection, as that of one sex to the other." But one of the beginning lessons in Bible studies is to let the Bible's authors define their own terms. Hence, we need to re-ask the meaning of love by asking what love meant in the Bible. We need an even deeper beginning: we need to see how God loves in order to understand what loves means.
First, the Bible opens up the meaning of love when the creator God becomes the covenant God with Abraham (e.g., Genesis 12; 15; 17; 22). God loves by entering into the rugged commitment of a covenant, a covenant that finds new expression in the promise to David, discovers a brand new future in the new covenant prophecy of Jeremiah 31, and each of these before the New Testament's new covenant. God's choice to express His love in terms of covenant defines love as a rugged commitment of one person (God) to another person (Abraham) and to a corporate person (Israel). These parties shuttle back and forth in their relationship throughout the Bible: each person is loved by God and God's love is shown not only to Israel but to the expansive Body of Christ, the Church. Paul's relationship to his friends – those whom he loves (agapetoi), is a covenant first and foremost; that is, his love for them is a commitment to them as persons.
The second element of love is that it is a covenant of presence....
*The rest of this piece will appear in Synaxis 5.1, which will be mailed to all Eighth Day Patrons, Pillars & Olympians. The full chapter, "A Culture of Friendship," will appear in Rev. Canon Dr. Scot McKnight's forthcoming book Pastor Paul: Exploring Pastoral Theology as Nurturing a Culture of Christoformity (Baker Academic, 2019).

Ahhh... one of the ones that started it all -- To those who don't know, just over 6 years ago, I found myself without a vehicle -- Everyone was having a wonderful time except me... I was stuck in the boonies... far from entertainment aside from my parents (who are wonderful)
One dark and murky night, my good friend Thomas V. Flammer gave me a ring and told me of one such instance of fun times being had by all ... I could barely contain my excitement, because Tom, being such a good friend, obviously knew i didn't have a car at the time and clearly wouldn't be calling to tell me just to rub it in my face, right? right??

Jakarta, November 19 - Local amateur Almay Rahman Yaquta continued to surprise the field by leading a group of five Indonesian players into the weekend at the Bank BRI-JCB Indonesian Open.
After thunderstorms and upcoming darkness had stopped the second round late Friday, the 18 year old amateur had to complete his round early Saturday morning and did so with success. His second round score of 69 combined with a first round score of 68 meant he was the highest ranked Indonesian player to go into the weekend in a tie for 11th place.
Danny Masrin, Adrian Halimi and George Gandranata, who all had completed their rounds on Friday, together with Jordan Irawan, who still had to play a few holes Saturday morning, are joining Almay to battle for local honors in Indonesia's oldest tournament.
Johannes Veerman of the United States shot a six-under-par 66 to take the second round clubhouse lead on Friday as he searches for a first Asian Tour victory. The American, whose mum is half Indonesian, eagled the 14th hole for the second consecutive day to finish the round on 11-under-par 133 at the US$300,000 Asian Tour event.
Hung Chien-yao from Taiwan joined Veerman at the top of the leaderboard on Saturday morning after completing his second round with a 67.
Frenchman Lionel Weber fired a sparkling 62 for the low round of the day as he finished two shots back of the clubhouse target alongside Janne Kaske (67) of Finland at the Pondok Indah Golf Course.
The sweet swinging Veerman made 25 putts in a round of four birdies and one eagle which was his third for the week as he soared into contention at the BANK BRI-JCB Indonesia Open. After spending most of his youth in Asia, Veerman, who is now based in Texas, hopes to continue his impressive form during the weekend where his mother and relatives will come to support him.
"I played some great golf. I've made so many eagles this week which is probably the most I've done in my life. I made two eagles yesterday and today on the 14th hole. I don't know what's happening but I like it," said Veerman.
"It is difficult when you are travelling around the world but my mum is Indonesian and she is coming up with my family and they will be out here. I'll be excited and happy to play in front of them," he added.
Veerman enjoyed a splendid season on the Asian Development Tour (ADT) this year where he won once. He now hopes to follow in the footsteps of ADT graduates Pavit Tangkamolprasert and Poom Saksansin, who both won on the Asian Tour last month.
"All of that practice on the ADT has been polishing my game. You read about success stories of golfers winning but when you play with these guys (Pavit and Poom) and see them winning, then you tell yourself 'hey if they can do it, so can I'," he said.
Frenchman Weber, who is playing in his fourth season on the Asian Tour, fired his career's low round of 62 where he birdied his closing five holes for a superb homeward nine score of 29-under. "During suspension, I went to the restaurant, had good food and was watching the golf on the television. I got back on the course feeling relaxed and enjoyed my round. Making five birdies in a row gives you a good feeling," smiled Weber.
"I've got nothing to lose this week. I will play offensively. I haven't won on the Asian Tour yet so it will be superb to do it. I think I've secured my Asian Tour card so I hope I can get a win now," he said.
Kaske, a winner on the ADT, missed a par putt on the 16th hole after the weather delay but bounced back brilliantly when he chipped in for birdie from the edge of the 18th green. "We had a three-hour delay and I was imagining making that lag par putt but I burnt the edge on that one. I've had a bad year so far but I'm trying to finish the season strongly. A win will be the best case scenario," said Kaske.
Scores after round 2 of the Bank BRI-JCB Indonesia Open 2016 being played at the par 72, 7243 Yards Pondok Indah GC course (am - denotes amateur):
133 - Johannes VEERMAN (USA) 67-66, HUNG Chien-yao (TPE) 66-67

136 - Jazz JANEWATTANANOND (THA) 69-67, Gaganjeet BHULLAR (IND) 71-65, Chinnarat PHADUNGSIL (THA) 65-71
Selected Indonesian players:
137 - Almay Rayhan YAQUTAH (A)
140 - Danny MASRIN 68-72
141 - Jordan IRAWAN 70-71
142 - Adrian HALIMI 71-71, George GANDRANATA 70-72.

Daley returns to Canisius College after serving as an assistant coach at Binghamton University from 2013-16. She spent the 2017 season working with Delaware, before returning to Binghamton in the offseason.
At Binghamton, Daley mentored 11 all-conference honorees and also had a major role in leading the Bearcats to the program's lowest goals against average in 2016. Additionally, Binghamton midfielder Rebecca Golderman, one of Daley's recruits, became the program's first-ever America East Rookie of the Year.
In her stint at Delaware, the former Canisius goaltender coached the Blue Hens to nine victories and a berth in the 2017 CAA semifinals. Delaware finished the 2017 season ranked seventh nationally in goals against average.
Prior to joining the coaching staff at Binghamton, Daley was Canisius' assistant coach and recruiting coordinator.
She helped build a Griffs program that won back-to-back MAAC titles and advanced to the NCAA tournament in each of her two seasons. Daley recruited and coached the 2012 MAAC Defensive Player of the Year and coached seven all-conference honorees.
As a player Daley, was an elite goaltender and team captain who enjoyed a decorated playing career. She was a member of Canada's U19 National Team before embarking on a successful four-year undergraduate career on Main Street.
She was the MAAC Defensive Player of the Year in 2010 and earned MAAC Tournament MVP honors after leading the Griffs to their first conference title in 2011.
Daley was a three-time All-MAAC selection and became the program's first IWLCA all-region pick following her senior season with the program. The Blue and Gold alumna twice earned all-tournament team honors, and graduated holding school records for career saves (662) and goals against average (11.66).
Daley received her bachelor's degree in psychology from Canisius in 2011 and went on to receive her master's degree in sport administration in 2013.

Nintendo's Archer Link and Rider Link Amiibo's CPSIA certificates are now publicly available, and they feature pictures of their packaging.
They also reveal that those two Amiibo were manufactured in November 2016.
Some NeoGaf and Reddit users have speculated that this means that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will be releasing in March, since no Amiibo has been released more than three months after receiving its CPSIA certification.
We may find out more about their release date at Nintendo's Switch Presentation on January 12th. Stay tuned.

text: I thought that I would be able to let Molly self wean from breast feeding and to an extent she did. We got down to nursing first thing in the morning, before each of her naps, and then before bed, and we just kind of got stuck there. Mike and I are planning a trip for the two of us in May and I really didn't want to have to bring the pump. So I decided to start weaning Molly so we could slowly cut out all nursing sessions. We started a couple of weeks ago and I cut out nursing before her second nap and jut yesterday we dropped nursing before her first nap. I'm thankful that so far it seems to be going good. Molly is still going down for naps and doesn't seem to miss nursing. Hopefully that continues once we cut out the morning and then nighttime sessions. She seems more dependent on them so fingers crossed it keeps going smooth but we've got plenty of time so if she needs a extra week or two it should be okay.
