SPANISH FORK, Utah (AP) — Family and friends say they are stunned a Utah police officer shot and killed his wife, mother-in-law and two young children before turning the gun on himself days ago.
Those close to Joshua and Kelly Boren said they knew the couple had been having marital problems but never thought he was capable of such a violent act. They spoke at a vigil Saturday night in Spanish Fork, a city of about 36,000 people located 9 miles south of Provo, home of Brigham Young University. They were unsure of the events leading up to the shooting.
"Everybody says how horrible my uncle was," Ashley Ohran, 17, Joshua Boren's niece told the Deseret News (http://bit.ly/1eL1cwI ). "That's the thing, my uncle was the best person ever. He was a great guy.
"Nobody knew that this was coming. Nobody was expecting this to happen from him," she added.
Spanish Fork police say the 34-year-old officer of the Lindon Police Department shot his wife, 32; his mother-in-law, Marie King, 55; and his two children, Joshua "Jaden" Boren, 7, and Haley Boren, 5, before killing himself. They were found dead in their home late Thursday night, and police are still investigating a motive. The Lindon department counts about 15 uniformed officers and patrols a city of about 10,000.
More than 100 people packed a Gold's Gym to remember and share stories of the family, the newspaper reported. Kelly Boren was a fitness fanatic who worked out there. She and her husband often socialized and went hiking with a group of 10 close friends.
RiRi Whiting, Kelly Boren's close friend and a vigil organizer, said she never saw a temper in Joshua Boren and thought he was a good father. Now, she says she's overwhelmed with anger.
"It's a super selfish act," Whiting said. "I don't know what state of mind a person can be in to do that, especially to children. When children are involved, it just makes me sick."
Friend James Bjerregaard also remembered Joshua Boren as a good father.
"Josh wasn't a bad guy. He was a gentle, personable guy," he said. "I think it's kind of too fresh to really know what my opinions and thoughts will be of him down the road."
Kelly Boren, who was finance director for the city of Bluffdale, was remembered as a sweet, funny woman dedicated to her family.
"She just had that smile that was contagious that I personally wanted to be around," friend Travis Young said. "You just don't forget somebody like that, that spirit, that aura, whatever you want to call it. That goodness about them."
Investigators did not find a suicide note or other message to explain the shooting.
A funeral for the family will begin at 11 a.m. Wednesday at Lindquist Mortuary in Layton.

Dave's Rating:
Parker (Jason Statham) is a principled criminal and, thanks to that rigid code of bad-guy honor, almost entirely self-contained. He's a one-man army when confronted by thugs, a solo crime mastermind and a scarred-up lover to his exceptionally devoted, yet completely blank, girlfriend (Emma Booth, who, conveniently, isn't around much and when she does pop up it's to bring fresh, sterile surgical gut and sew up Parker's latest round of profuse bleeding). But lone wolves don't always cash in, so he's in search of cooperative, like-minded thieves who'll play by his rules and split the big payday.
He cannot find those thieves. Instead, he finds four heist partners (Michael Chiklis, Clifton Collins Jr., Wendell Pierce, Micah Hauptman) who double-cross him and leave him for dead after a botched heist at the Ohio State Fair. When they bolt off to Palm Beach, Parker hunts them down seeking revenge and it's there that he runs into disgruntled real estate agent/divorcee Leslie (Jennifer Lopez), whose connections he uses to help locate his prey.
It is at this point in most films following similar templates when sex-sparks begin to fly. But that doesn't happen here. Opposites do not attract. At all. Were they supposed to? Lopez's entirely unnecessary character is, instead, a plot device that decides to stick around and occasionally demonstrate how well she wears lingerie. She's better than this when directed to it, a magnetic presence when given the opportunity. So to see her wasted here, forced to behave girlishly and neurotically and eventually become a hostage, is insulting. Ultimately, only director Taylor Hackford knows, but whatever else she was meant to be in this film besides the softening agent in an otherwise violent revenge drama is a mystery.
Meanwhile, there's nothing mysterious about the the obvious: Statham doesn't need her or any female character to accomplish his usual to-do list of Statham-Stuff. He runs, shoots, fights and bleeds like he does in every film, and here the only spark of life takes place in moments when he's delivering or receiving violence. And that's what you came to see, really. In contemporary action cinema, he's the go-to guy for this sort of thing and he's built a sturdy career playing exactly the same Man from Nowhere over and over again in all but a handful of unusual detours (like the early Guy Ritchie movies or 2008's crackling The Bank Job, and even then he's still mostly that guy). He's a generic yet magnetic brute and he carries the weight all by himself.
It's just that that's not enough this time around. The heist details plod along, characters refuse to connect to one another, it's ugly-looking from start to finish and, worst of all, nobody seems to be having a good time. Isn't the point of crime on film to provide extreme, escapist fantasy, a dirty dream of a not-boring nine-to-five job, a setup and payoff delivering millions of dollars? And if so, shouldn't somebody on camera act like they're having fun being bad for cash?
The answer to that rhetorical question is, of course, "yes." But like selfish criminals, movies don't always cooperate for the good of the group.

17 - 18 and 20 May
IMMA has been chosen as the final resting place of Patrick Ireland, whose effigy will be buried on 20 May on the grounds of the Museum. After the Derry Massacre of 1972, the artist Brian ODoherty undertook to sign his works Patrick Ireland until such time as the British military presence was removed from Northern Ireland and all citizens were accorded their civil rights. Those conditions are now fulfilled, thereby terminating Patrick Irelands existence. The burial is a gesture of reconciliation to celebrate the restoration of peace in Northern Ireland, just as his action in assuming the name Patrick Ireland was a protest at the British military presence in Northern Ireland and the failure of the authorities to ensure civil rights for all. "We are burying hate", says the artist, "it's not often you get the chance to do that". The non-denominational ceremony will be presided over by former Jesuit priest, and now museum director, Michael Rush, Director of the Rose Art Museum at Brandeis University, Massachusetts. There will be short speeches over the grave.
Born in Ballaghadereen, Co Roscommon Brian ODoherty left Dublin for New York in 1957, where he became a pioneering figure in Conceptual Art and also a renowned writer, critic, filmmaker and educator. His work is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. He has exhibited at the Venice Biennale, at Documenta in Kassel, Germany, and in the Rosc exhibition in Dublin. His most recent exhibition in Ireland was his 50-year retrospective at the Dublin City Gallery the Hugh Lane in 2006. The exhibition was recently seen at the Grey Art Gallery, New York University.

Watch Rare Home-Movie Footage of Boris Karloff's Frankenstein in Color
When Universal set out to make its third Frankenstein film – 1939's Son of Frankenstein – the original idea was to shoot the film in Technicolor as opposed to the more standard black and white. Test footage was shot in color, but then a decision was made to go back to black and white instead. Rumors have circulated for years that the reason this decision was made was because Boris Karloff's makeup looked "too green" in the Technicolor format.
While that test footage isn't available for viewing (there are two different stories about its whereabouts – one posits that it was stolen from Universal in the 1980s, while another reports that it's simply stored in some New Jersey film vault), we can see what Son of Frankenstein would have looked like in color thanks to some Karloff family home movies from the set.
The brief video clip has been floating around online for awhile now, but it's still really cool to see Karloff hamming it up on the set, sticking his tongue out at the camera, and playfully strangling legendary makeup artist Jack Pierce.
Karloff's makeup appears green in the footage, but not in a distracting way. It's more interesting to see Frankenstein's infamous monster cavorting about and having fun. Why was Karloff so happy on the set? We can't say for sure, but the iconic actor did become a father for the very first time during the filming. Might have been that – or maybe he knew this was the last time he'd go through the four-plus hour process to don the makeup for a feature film. That would have made us giddy too.
Check out the footage below.

Hi all!
I've got an issue, one of many when it comes to bikes. I searched throughout all the pages I could find pertaining to my situation and couldn't find very much useful information.
So the issue is, the bike has no electric start.... until it's hot enough to melt steel that is. It will bump start first time every time. But I can sit and crank the starter over for ever and it'll never start until the charger is bumped up past 200 amps. Not good.
The story so far,
Got the bike for 1k cash. Guy said it has no spark and no second gear. This particular guy also only ever rode newer crotch rockets. Brought it home pulled the choke, attached battery charger and she fired right up. Ran like absolute crap, but oh well I figure it's an older bike with only 10k miles so it probably needs a good carb cleaning. Took the carb apart and didn't know I messed something up until way later(didn't tighten down main jet). Oh well she runs well enough if I can get her started. Moved from California to Oklahoma. Eventually found the money to fix 2nd gear, and as I am a certified Honda small engine technician apprentice I figured it would be no big deal. Completely tore down engine to it's roots replaced 2nd, and 5th gear(because 5th gear connects to 2nd on the countershaft) dogs were worn pretty badly on both. The engine looked quite good compared to most others I've seen. Put the engine back together as per the service manual. Did all the right steps including loosening the banjo bolts to test for proper oil pressure. I even tore apart the electric starter to clean the contacts and the brushes and replace the dielectric grease. Adjusted the valves as per the service manual, replaced all gaskets, o-rings, seals, and oil filter.
Finally after about a month of waiting on parts and reassembly I get to start her, only she doesn't. Electric start is still giving me the same issues I've always had. So I replaced the Ignition coil, CDI box, and put a new battery in, plus the starter motor rebuild. Nothing. Still cranks forever. I said what the heck and tried to push it slightly down hill and bump start it, and voila... fired right up! Once she gets hot enough and the stator charges the battery enough it'll electric start... sometimes.
So I looked towards ignition, used a tool called ignition mate. Pretty awesome tool if you can afford it. Well while cranking the ignition mate reads the spark plug is getting 1-4kw of "spark" every cycle, well it only fires after getting up past 5kw sometimes 6-8kw. And sometimes the ignition would be intermittent as in it wouldn't give any spark at all. I cycle the ignition and it seems to soft reset the bike as it will usually give it back spark. I tested this with the new and old CDI box, the old one would never spark. Ever. So I threw it in the trash. A month later I stil l can't figure it out.
Is there something I'm missing?
Bike won't start using electric start only bump start before and after engine rebuild
Electric start works after pushing the starter past about 200 cold cranking amps or when hot.

Contemplating picking up a BRP in the near future and looking for some perspective.The current owner claims that the bike has about six hundred hours on it, but there's no way for me to confirm as the odo's not accurate.
I know brp's have a reputation for running forever on stock top ends, but they must eventually have an expiration date. What should I look for on a high mileage bike like this to make sure I'm not setting myself up for disappointment? Also, What are some non engine/transmission related issues I should look for?

Have been riding my 650L for over a year and a half and have been loving every second! In August I moved back to Reno after finishing up my masters at Arizona State. I have been spending most of my time riding around verdi to stampede and the Dog Valley road area. Always looking for riding buddies.
Was curious what everyone was doing as far as Daves mods or jet kit for the upper elevations 4,000 to 8,000 feet?

Hey dear folk!
I need your help.
A bit of background info, I'm a complete noob when it comes to holding a wrench and doing anything more than filling up the bike. I have however had an interest for as long as I've had a bike to make it mine, and that's why I'm writing to you now. I just bought a donor bike, a Honda NX650 which a friend of mine is helping me fix up and then modify to my liking (I'm hoping to end up with a gorgeous scrambler in about 9 months).
We found a hairline scratch in the cylinder and need to bore it. This leads me to my question.
Should I get a 1st overbore performance piston or keep the compression ratio as is? If so is there anything in particular I will need to modify to tolerate the high compression piston?
If I do get the performance piston, should I also get a new carburetor, hot cam, and new exhausts? I am planning on new exhausts anyway (2-1 from an XRL) and I'm planning on removing the airbox and getting a K/N pod air filter.
Again, keep in mind I know nothing, my friend has however fixed up a bunch of XRLs and cars but never really used performance parts. Help me out with the decision please, I would also like to keep the whole build to a reasonable cost (I know this is a very relative number).
I should also add that I want to keep the DNA of the bike, for example keeping the fuel tank instead of switching to a smaller rounder one as one usually sees in most custom builds. The aim of the whole build is to have an insanely fun bike to ride, both in the city and off-road, as well as giving it a bunch of my personality 😊
Thanks a lot for any help!

I've been rebuilding/restoring an XR650R for some years now (after toasting the motor in 2013). Sent the motor off to be rebuilt, had a local shop rebuild my forks and shock, and took care of most everything else myself.
As of a couple months ago I had almost everything assembled and ready to run.
As a final check before adding fluids to the bike, I decided to stick my boroscope into cylinder and take a look. The results were concerning.
These boroscope pics looked so gnarly that I pulled the head off the motor to get a more thorough look.
To say that I'm concerned is an understatement. I have pics of the motor internals pre-rebuild, and can confirm that this is definitely a new piston and replated cylinder. I also have all the old parts from the motor, so it does have a new cam, connecting rod, valves, and basically everything else I expected to have replaced.
The builder "ran the motor briefly to confirm everything ran alright" and then shipped it back to me. I reached out to him with these pics and he said,
The piston looks like this because he had it machined from 12:1 to 11:1 compression. The streaks on the cylinder wall are normal for one that isn't broken in yet. Regarding the valve impacts in the piston head: "My concern is that something may have passed through the cylinder. How does it run?" I've never run this motor. I can feel these streaks in the cylinder wall with my fingernail. Did he re-use a piston from some other motor?
Is this dude jerking my chain or is this motor fine to run?
He's a fairly well-known builder in the XR community and was recommended to me by guys in the (now-gone) XR650R forum.

As Americans come to grips with the notion that Saturday mail deliveries will be discontinued in August, at least one business and rural residents are already feeling the sting of recent U.S. Postal Service consolidations.
As Americans come to grips with the notion that Saturday mail deliveries will be discontinued in August, at least one business and rural residents are already feeling the sting of recent U.S. Postal Service consolidations.
In Shelbyville, Gene and Nadine Dodd have been subscribers of the Hannibal Courier-Post for a decade. They may rethink their subscription since the delivery of the paper now lags from four to seven days.
"It's annoying," said Nadine Dodd.
In Philadelphia, Mo., Bertie Rose reports a delay of at least two days.
"We were usually getting it the same day, the day it was dated," she said. "I'm pretty annoyed. I'm feeling like the people in the rural areas are being shut out."
The delay of information has an impact on the hospital chaplain.
"I look through that information to see some of the people that maybe I've worked with in Hannibal. Now I'm getting the information so late it's really of no value. I would miss any visitations that might be coming up or anything like that at this rate," said Rose.
Site closing
The delay in reaching many of the Courier-Post's 225 mail customers stems from the closing of the Quincy mail distribution site on Feb. 2. Each day's papers being mailed still go to Quincy, where they sit at the post office on Locust Street from 4 a.m. until 7 p.m. when they are shipped to the distribution center in Springfield, Ill. From Springfield, the papers are transported to St. Louis.
"From St. Louis they come back up this way, so in areas like up in Philadelphia and Shelbyville there's basically three days travel time before our customers are getting their papers," said Carolyn Rule, assistant circulation manager at the HCP. "We've already had some customers quit because of the delay."
According to Rule, consideration was given to dropping the papers off at the Hannibal post office. But instead of Springfield, Ill., the papers would have been shipped to St. Louis.
"No matter what we would have had all the layovers," she said. "There's nothing we can do. They leave the post office and go to distribution centers, which are now in Springfield, St. Louis, Columbia, and the holdups are in those distribution centers. We're at the mercy of the Postal Service."
One of many
Valerie Hughes of the U.S. Postal Service says the local distribution center was one of many sites that were closed.
"Across the nation the Postal Service is consolidating its network from post offices, stations and branches to plants, and Quincy was one of the plants," she said.
Hughes suggests the transition is still ongoing.
"Of course there's always little kinks to work out. I know on the Springfield side of things they had to work out some transportation issues. There are kinks that have to be worked out and they're working on those as we speak," she said,
A spokesman for the Missouri Press Association has not heard of similar postal problems as are being experienced in Hannibal.
"We haven't had very many complaints yet, but it's early," said Kent Ford. "I expect most of the newspapers that are having delivery issues are going to wait a couple of weeks to see if things will improve before they start complaining to the Postal Service. I'm sure some papers are getting complaints from their distant readers who aren't getting their papers for probably two or three more days later than usual."
Business blunder
Ford speculates the delay in delivery could ultimate cost the Postal Service business.
"What I anticipate is the Postal Service is going to lose some periodical deliveries because newspapers are going to encourage their distant readers to buy online subscriptions and that's going to take more mail out of the postal system," he said. "It's a bad situation for the post office, newspapers and readers."
Ford does not believe the current situation means the end of newspapers delivered via the Postal Service.
"It seems logical over the years that more people would purchase online subscriptions to avoid the delivery delay. They can get the newspaper virtually instantly as soon as it's published rather than waiting on the Postal Service. It seems like a logical thing to assume, but I hate to make those assumptions and it could take 10 years for that to occur," he said.
"If I were a subscriber and it was taking me three or four days to get my daily newspaper I'd probably buy an online subscription," added Ford. "A lot of people still like that hard copy newspaper, and I do too for the local newspaper. The newspapers that I read that are distant newspapers I read those online."
Rule says customers disgruntled by slow mail delivery are being encouraged to consider accessing the paper through its Web site - www.hannibalnet .
"It's an option if you want to look at the news every day without having to wait on the papers because of delays in the Postal Service," she said. "We have got several online customers now and they are promoting the online (paper)."

SAN DIEGO -- The Phillies arrived in Phoenix last night with this bullpen: Ryan Madson, Antonio Bastardo, Michael Stutes, Danys Baez, David Herndon, Mike Zagurski and Kyle Kendrick.
There is a closer in that group; Madson, who says he is healthy but needed a few days off to manage "normal" soreness. He, just like Jose Contreras, has been used frequently in the last two weeks.
Because of that, Contreras is on the disabled list and going back to Philadelphia for an examination that could reveal a significant structural issue related to the strained flexor pronator tendon in his right elbow. Or the doctor could simply find that a few weeks of rest is necessary for the 39-year-old to feel better.
Either way, the bullpen is a mitigated mess right now. Bastardo has been very good, but he is not without past durability and consistency concerns. Baez, Herndon and Kendrick have had their bouts of ineffectiveness. Zagurski is a mop-up man right now. Stutes has never pitched in a major-league game.
There will be a few schools of thought as to how we arrived at this point.
1. Charlie Manuel and Rich Dubee habitually abused the back of the bullpen.
2. Already without Brad Lidge and J.C. Romero, the Phillies' decision-makers were left with few trusted options at the end of the bullpen and relied on a select few.
3. The offense's inability to, you know, score has created an unnecessary amount of close and tight games that put strain on the bullpen.
The true answer includes all the above.
At the beginning of spring training, Contreras was viewed as the likely seventh-inning man -- a role he thrived in. Then Lidge went down, Madson stayed where he was and the trickle-down effect had a great role in exposing most of the relievers the Phillies currently have.
Manuel is in the business of winning games (duh) and when he was faced with late decisions in close games, he turned to his trusted guys. And yes, there were times when he asked Baez, Herndon and Kendrick to pitch a crucial inning.
Look, I won't defend Manuel here. Having Contreras throw 81 pitches in the span of seven days is certainly uncalled for -- especially in April. General manager Ruben Amaro Jr. made no secret of what caused Contreras' soreness. He briefed the media in the manager's office, with Manuel seated nearby, and it was hard not to see some sort of tension.
"He had been pitching quite a bit," Amaro said.
Of course, Manuel could have shot back saying, "Well, this is what I've been handed." (He didn't.) The bullpen was a concern this offseason -- in fact Amaro once said it was his greatest concern. The Phillies upgraded by adding... no one. Contreras and Romero were re-signed. Chad Durbin, who would look quite helpful right about now, went unsigned until he latched on with Cleveland.
Now the Phillies do not have a setup man or a reliable seventh-inning option. They will ask Bastardo to continue his fantastic run to begin 2011 and it's quite possible he does. They will see first-hand if Stutes can ride his spring training success into a regular bullpen role. They must hope one of Baez or Herndon can straighten out.
Those things may happen. But if they don't, the starters could begin to see some sterling performances ruined.
Finally, a note on Roy Halladay's 130 pitches from the man himself:
"Everybody makes a big deal out of it, but 115 to 130 is an extra 15 pitches," Halladay said. "When you're talking about throwing - bullpen, long-toss, and in between innings, you're throwing 350 balls a day. An extra 15, if you're prepared, shouldn't affect it."
What does he mean by prepared?
"You're smart enough to cut back your work in between your next start. That's where a lot of guys don't look at that. They get stuck on throwing the same amount of pitches in the bullpen and long-tossing, and that's where it catches up with you. If you're smart about it, those in-between days are where you take care of yourself."

The year 2006 was the centenary of Hannah Arendt's birth. Conferences and colloquia marked it all around the Western world, from Berlin to Belgrade, from Paris to Prague. Radio and TV documentaries aired on every continent, and new editions and translations of Arendt's books poured into bookstores as her reputation globalized. Clearly, three decades after her death in 1975, Arendt's writings are as compelling as they were to student rebels in America and Western Europe in the late 1960s and to the velvet revolutionaries of Eastern Europe in the 1980s.
As Arendt's biographer, I received many invitations to speak and write about her. But an especially intriguing one came at the year's end, introducing a study group I had never heard of before: the Hannah Arendt Observatorio, based in Caracas, Venezuela. From the home of the Bolivarian Revolution, launched in 1998 by Hugo Chávez, came a plea: Will you come to Caracas for a week and talk with us about Hannah Arendt's theories of totalitarianism and revolution? Chávez was just then, in December 2006, winning his second term as president by a decisive majority–some 60 percent of the electorate.
On June 10 of this year, I set out for Caracas, having educated myself as best I could about the enormously complex political situation there. Everything contemporary that I (a Spanishless reader) found in NYU's library or on the Internet had a point of view, Chavista or anti-Chavista (although there was thoughtful political analysis from, for example, Moises Naim, the Venezuelan-born editor of Foreign Policy). The polarization is as intense in the American media as it is in the Venezuelan, with the New York Times consistently criticizing Chávez editorially– even applauding the 2002 coup attempt against him–while many in the left blogsphere and on the news site venezuelanalysis.com hail him.
In Venezuela and in America, the war of words had ratcheted up the week before I left. Demonstrations had broken out in Caracas to protest Chávez's decision not to renew the license of an anti-Chavista TV station (RCTV) where, as at all private TV stations in Venezuela, in between the soap operas and the talk-show fare, the coup against him had been promoted and his downfall devoutly desired ever since. But for the first time, the protest marches were organized not by disaffected middle-class opposition party supporters but by students from a dozen public and private universities, including the three–Central University, Catholic University and Simon Bolivar University–where I had been asked to speak. After nearly a decade of little action by students, a movement is emerging.
There are some 200,000 university students in Caracas, including those, mostly pro-Chavista, who attend the eight universities Chávez has created (with plans for more than twenty more). The majority of the students at Central, Catholic and Simon Bolivar are middle class and white–like the American and European students whose 1960s and '80s histories they know–but both the private and public universities have been opening more and more (as the government guarantees financial support and calls for an "open admissions" policy, without qualifying exams). At universities outside Caracas, like the University of the Andes, student organizing in recent years, before the RCTV issue, centered on questions of university governance and how students could have a voice in their own education. I began to think, over the week of my visit, that this movement might have the possibility of reminding the warring elders that a country in which the huge gulf between rich and poor shrinks is in the interests of all its citizens. The question is how this social justice goal should be achieved, and that, as Hannah Arendt always argued, is a political question, a question for political actors–like the students themselves.

Top talent to come out for Md. event
The best of the best from the state of Maryland as well as from the District of Columbia and a select few from Virginia will be on hand for the Rivals.com Five-Star Academy run by Haden Sports & Performance in Annapolis, Md., on Friday night, March 13. Led by the state's top prospect, Frederick (Md.) St. John's Catholic Rivals100 defensive end J.R. Ferguson.
Ferguson, a 6-foot-4, 260-pounder with offers from more than 30 programs in the country, leads a strong defensive line group that will be getting after it at the event. He will be joined by Christchurch (Va.) Christchurch School defensive tackle Nick Acree, a Virginia Tech commitment who is one of the most physically impressive prospects in the nation, and Frederick (Md.) St. John's Catholic end Forrest Mason, Ferguson's teammate who has his first offer from UConn. Others to watch at defensive line include Washington (D.C.) St. John's College tackle Andre Monroe and two 2011 prospects, LaMonte Clark from Washington (D.C.) Ballou and Vincent Croce from Olney (Md.) Good Counsel.
Battling the defensive line will be a strong group of offensive linemen led by Hyattsville (Md.) DeMatha's Arie Kouandjio who has offers from Maryland, North Carolina, Pitt and UConn. The 6-foot-5, 310-pounder is emerging as one of the better tackles on the east coast. Washington (D.C.) St. John's College lineman Kortlan Jackson and 2011 offensive tackle Jamar Lewter from Washington (D.C.) Ballou will also look to impress.
The wide receivers against the defensive backs will be a matchup to watch as well. On offense, Baltimore (Md.) City College standout Adrian Coxson and Washington (D.C.) H.D. Woodson's Sherrard Harrington lead the way. Others to keep an eye on include Columbia (Md.) Atholton wide out Matt Robinson, who can also play linebacker, Oxon (Md.) Oxon Hill speedster Malik Cross and Magruder wide out Karim Jones.
The wideouts will be challenged by a very strong group of defensive backs. Fort Washington (Md.) Friendly safety Jordan Haden has more than 20 offers and will be joined by Hyattsville (Md.) DeMatha defensive back Lorenzo Waters, Olney (Md.) Good Counsel cornerback Louis Young, Washington (D.C.) H.D. Woodson standout Don Hursey and others. And 2011 Baltimore (Md.) Mount St. Joseph safety Devonte Jones is another to watch.
Throwing the passes will be the best quarterbacks in state. Washington (D.C.) H.D. Woodson quarterback Ricardo Young already has a few offers while Gambrills (Md.) Arundel signal-caller Billy Cosh also has a lot of early interest and an offer from Kansas State. Baltimore (Md.) Edmonson-Westside quarterback Jerry Lovelocke and Frederick (Md.) Tuscarora standout Josh Marshall will also be trying to hit their targets.
Finally, the running backs will be tested by some very good linebackers. Leading the linebacker group is Nick Forbes from Frederick (Md.) Thomas Johnson who has more than 20 offers. He'll be joined by teammate Washington (D.C.) Dunbar linebacker Javarie Johnson, Olney (Md.) Good Counsel stud Troy Gloster, Parkville, Md., 'backer Joshua Alaeze and Millersville (Md.) Old Mill athlete Josh Furman. All boast D-IA offers.
At running back, Frederick (Md.) Linganore star Zach Zwinak will be tough to handle as will Washington (D.C.) Coolidge back Avery Williams, who just received an offer from West Virginia. Oxon (Md.) Oxon Hill back Leo Gordon and 2011 prospect Dwayne Randall from Frederick (Md.) Linganore are also players to keep an eye on.
The event is invite only so no walk-ups will be allowed and Rivals.com has exclusive coverage rights to the event. The Rivals.com AMP team will be on hand for video coverage of the event and participants are urged to bring junior film with them if it's not already uploaded on the site.
The camp will be run by Joe Haden Sr., the father of Jordan as well as of Joe Haden from Florida and Josh Haden from Boston College and one of the most respected trainers on the east coast.
There are still a few slots open at certain positions for qualified participants so if interested e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com for further information.

If you attended TechEd in Boston last month, you might have seen a session introducing Microsoft's new database development tool, Visual Studio Team Edition for Database Professionals (VSDB Pro). I had the pleasure of learning about this new product from two of SQL Server Magazine's longtime authors and friends: VSDB Pro's Architect and Development Manager Gert Drapers and Program Manager Architect Richard Waymire (who is also one of this magazine's original contributing editors). Gert conceived the idea of VSDB Pro and heads the development team. Richard's role includes making sure VSDB Pro has the features that database developers and DBAs need and ensuring that the product stays on schedule. (See the Web-exclusive article, "The Power to Control Change," http://www.sqlmag.com, InstantDoc ID 50303, for more information on how VSDB Pro will affect DBAs.)
I hope the following interview conveys the enthusiasm Gert and Richard exuded as they explained how VSDB Pro aims to bridge the gap between database and application developers. VSDB Pro will also support script management (see the Web-exclusive sidebar, "Admin Scripts," http://www.sqlmag.com, InstantDoc ID 50272). VSDB Pro's database development life cycle tools mirror Visual Studio's (VS's) tools for the application development life cycle stages of build, deploy, manage changes and versions, track processes and work items, and reporting.
The What, Who, and Why
Karen: What is your new product?
Gert: It's a SKU of VS, a member of the VS Team Suite. The official name is Visual Studio Team Edition for Database Professionals, or VSDB Pro. The code name was K2, also internally known as the Data Dude.
Karen: It had two code names?
Gert: There's a funny story here. We had an executive presentation about what we wanted to do as part of VS. We were explaining who our customer would be. VS had personas for the Developer, the Tester, the Architect, but our customer, the SQL Server person, was missing. Our vice president at the time, Eric Rudder, stuck this name to our customer: "Oh! He's the Data Dude."
Karen: What's the relationship between the Data Dude and the existing VS personas?
Gert: VS has always targeted application developers, and we've also added testers and architects. Most applications have a database, but VS never paid attention to this whole database thing. Our goal is to acknowledge that the database developer is important, that this role has not been getting the attention and tool support available to other personas.
The Data Dude project is about bridging the worlds of application development and database development. We asked how we could bring the database developer into the development life cycle, like an app developer who starts a project, designs, writes code, builds, and debugs. The developer goes through this cycle working in a team and using source control. But what does a database developer have? Query Analyzer. That's the only tool.
Our other observation was that every change a database developer makes is directly on the database. It immediately goes into effect, so the truth is in the database. Therefore, there is no change tracking, and no design-build-deploy metaphor. Because database developers have no development life cycle, it's hard for them to play in the world with other developers that do have a development life cycle. So our goal for V1 is to provide tooling for database developers, to support them with change management—specifically SQL Server schema change management.
Karen: Is a DBA a Data Dude?
Gert: Whoever maintains the schema is our audience. So VSDB Pro targets the function of managing changes in the schema. My biggest audience is Query Analyzer users.
Point-and-click administrators who only want to make mouse-click changes will not be our first audience. They will be in \[SQL Server Management Studio\] SSMS. If you're part of a development team or want to work in a structured process, work disconnected (like a consultant on the road), play around with the schema and try out changes, VSDB Pro is your environment.
Karen: You mentioned that VSDB Pro would bridge the gap between database developers and app developers. How much of the gap is closed in V1?
Gert: First we're focusing on the database. In the future, we'll try to connect the app developer more with the database developer and make sure these two worlds can collaborate.
Richard: Some of that connection is in V1: You'll be able to define a solution that has both a C# project and a SQL Server database, and then you'll be able to deploy your application and the corresponding schemas that go with it. So it's partially there.
Karen: Will you support older versions of SQL Server?
Gert: Yes. But we distinguished SQL Server 2000 and 2005 projects because, of course, the types of objects are different. At TechEd, we supported only SQL Server 2000 objects because we had to limit our scope and that's the biggest audience, but we will fully support SQL Server 2005 by the time we ship. We're at CTP 3. Then there will be 4 and 5 and RTM, which is expected to ship by the end of this year.
Richard: With SQL Server 2000 being a subset of SQL Server 2005, it also builds us a very nice core for moving towards full \[SQL Server 2005\] support.
Karen: Will VSDB Pro support databases other than SQL Server?
Gert: This is all about SQL Server. It's not about other database vendors, but we are in VS.
Karen: How will customers purchase VSDB Pro? Will it be part of SQL Server?
Richard: We are a completely stand-alone SKU sold either separately or as part of the VS Team suite.
We don't plan to ship it with SQL Server. We do have a prerequisite of using an instance of SQL Server for internal validation within our project, and eventually you'll need SQL Server under the covers, but it'll be part of VSDB Pro and you won't have to buy a separate SQL Server license.
The Truth Is in the Project
Karen: How will a Data Dude work with VSDB Pro?
Gert: It all starts with a database project in VS. That approach facilitates the build-and-deploy metaphor because you build a project that puts out a .sql file, which you can then deploy towards the target.
Karen: So you no longer have to make changes directly to your database.
Gert: We're proposing one big mental change to the database developer: The truth is not inside your database, but the truth is inside your project. You will be able to take schema objects, build a project from them, and start working on the project. Out of the build, you'll get simply a .sql script that you can deploy to a database.
Karen: Can you create a project for an existing database?
Gert: We support two deployment scenarios: Start from scratch (i.e., a brand new installation), and incremental update (i.e., you have x, you need to go to y, and we'll build the difference for you).
Richard: We certainly will support an existing database because today the version of the truth is the database. We'll reverse engineer a database back into a project. Customers will start by creating a new database project, import their existing schema into the project from their existing database, and then work in our project system. From there, they move towards deployment to send updates out to their existing installations.
Karen: So what is a database project?
Richard: A project reflects a user database. If you had an application consisting of multiple user databases, you would have multiple database projects in a single solution. We explicitly made the decision not to make this hierarchy any deeper.
Gert: Today, a database project is merely a placeholder for a script file and a connection. With VSDB Pro, you can have scripts, but more important, we treat everything as objects. So a table is an object that has columns, constraints, indexes—all these aspects are editable, but so are versions. If you change a column name or add a constraint, that information is recorded in the version control system. We support whatever source control systems VS supports. In V1, we'll support change management for schemas.
Karen: How does your version tracking work?
Gert: Version tracking is nothing more than keeping track of all the changes in the underlying scripts inside a version control system. We treat the changes as text. We don't do anything funky. We made an explicit decision that every SQL Server tool should be able to consume the scripts that we have underneath. We don't want to divorce this from the use of existing tools. So people can still use Query Analyzer. You can integrate your project with VS Team Foundation Server for process or work-item tracking and version control, and then we have some basic reporting facilities in the schema.
Karen: Will this approach be foreign to Data Dudes?
Gert: At the end of the day, you're still working with a .sql file. We're not trying to build a new storage mechanism. We're trying to be as close as possible to what SQL Server has now. You can still use Query Analyzer and sqlcmd, but we're tracking changes inside the schema.
The big bet is that the truth is inside the project, not inside the database. So you can build a database project and reverse engineer something you already have. You can take multiple things and put them inside the project. You can start making changes to the objects.
Richard: And because the truth is in the file system, you can take a snapshot of the project, throw it on your laptop, work on it on the plane disconnected from your data center. When you come back, you can check in your changes, synch and resolve them, and do source control. So you no longer have only one guy at a time working on a live connection to your production or test server.
Karen: Can you talk about refactoring?
Gert: You can start by building a database project and reverse engineer it to a database you already have. You can put multiple objects in the project and start changing the objects. Some changes are not just renaming; they're really refactoring.
For example, say you have a reference to table Sales in your stored procedure. Inside your view, you rename Sales to Orders. VSDB Pro will go through your schema and make changes so that everywhere you have that table, it reflects the rename of Orders instead of Sales. If it finds a stored procedure or function that uses those names, it will also recreate them.
Richard: We'll also do validation. If you make a constraint that's not valid, we'll give you a visual indicator in your project, identifying which things have been invalidated by your changes. So say you break a table—like you delete the contents of a table and five foreign keys referenced it. We'll visually indicate which tables' foreign keys the changes have broken.
Karen: What are the limitations on refactoring in this first version?
Gert: In this release, we're restricting refactoring to renames. We will not do, for example, type changes (e.g., I changed this column, which is bound to this parameter, so I'll change the Declare statement from small int to big int). That we couldn't bite off due to time constraints. We'll do that next time.
Unit Test
Karen: Can you explain what you're doing with unit testing?
Gert: We're also adding unit testing for database objects on top of the MSTEST infrastructure. So if you have a stored procedure, you can write a unit test. We have two flavors. First, you can take the SQL-only approach and write a T-SQL-based unit test, have validations, and make that part of your unit test list and have that be part of your build system. Second, since this is all integrated into the existing test infrastructure, app developers can take the code approach and use C# or VB.
Richard: Let me give you a concrete example of a unit test. I created a unit test for a stored procedure with Northwind. I said, "Get categories by count," and I added two test conditions: Make sure it returns a nonempty result set, and make sure the row count is nine. When I ran the test, it was able to go against a defined connection, get the row count back from the stored procedure execution, tell me about the success or failure of the test, and then generate a report of the test results. Because it's integrated with the rest of the unit tests, I could have hundreds of tests all together in the same project.
Karen: So this is moving toward the integration with the app developer that you're aiming for.
Richard: Yes. When we talk about integration with the app developer, each test is a different file in a project, so I could have a database unit test (or five or ten) and then I could have some C# unit tests or some VB unit tests, all in a project. And I could have the unit test project and the database project in the same solution file, check them in, and check them out together. So now I'm a database developer, I go in and make a change to a stored procedure. I deploy that stored procedure out to a test system that has some data and run my unit tests on it and know whether the change I just made broke it.
Gert: It gets better. Wouldn't it be great if you could unit test against real data? So we add another tool, the Data Generator, to generate meaningful data. Another advantage of our Data Generator: We can generate the same test set over and over. So this is great for unit testing.
Richard: And because we're mirroring the stats, we can even get similar if not identical plans, as you'd get in a production server.
So now I define my project in VS. I build and deploy that project to a test SQL Server. I use DGEN to populate it with data. Then I run unit test against the newly populated database. And I literally just take all the pieces of this project, flow them together, and now I have a repeatable test cycle of my version of the truth being deployed repeatedly as I make changes. Then I can measure specifically with every single stored procedure, every function, row counts, performance of my regular SQL queries because I can run those as scripts. And I can repeatedly deploy, make changes, deploy, test out, and have each run checked back into source control.
I can actually measure what change I made: What was the performance or data generation impact? Did queries slow down? Did I get more data than I expected? And because all this is checked in, I can repeat those experiments every time. Now we have data to back all those questions up.
Gert: To complete this, we have the ability to compare schemas. You can compare the project with what you have in production. You can compare a test implementation and a production implementation. The ability to compare schemas is really important to us.
The Right Track
Karen: What has been the response from customers who've used VSDB Pro?
Gert: The general feedback is that nobody provides an integrated solution to do this today. That's exactly what we're doing. VSDB Pro's refactoring is unique. The way we do data generation is unique. We're meeting the need by providing all these things together as an integrated solution working in an integrated process.

Patch 5.3 Profession Changes
There aren't many profession changes in Patch 5.3, but the major one makes leveling mining and herbalism possible in Pandaria with a low skill level.
- Miners can now level mining from a low skill level completely in Pandaria. Nodes will yield Ghost Iron Nuggets with the amount being determined by your skill level. You can combine ten nuggets to make one ore.
- Herbalists can now level herbalism from a low skill level completely in Pandaria. Nodes will yield a partial herb with the amount being determined by your skill level. You can combine 10 of the partial herbs to form a complete herb.
- Currently on the PTR, you will sometimes get fragments and the actual herb or ore when gathering near the minimum level for that node type.
- The Engineering mount and pet (Skyclaw and Pierre) won't make it in to Patch 5.3.

HEX: Shards of Fate - MMO TCG
Cryptozoic, creators of the WoW TCG, recently announced a new MMO and TCG hybrid on Kickstarter called HEX. This game is more complex than Hearthstone and has an additional MMO aspect of the game. You can see some of the gameplay here.
- Cards
- Beta will begin in late summer 2013.
- You start with 60 cards for free when creating your account. You can buy booster packs of 15 cards for $2.
- You can add gems to sockets in cards, allowing you to change how the card plays.
- You can transform cards that with their card power during the match.
- Cards have a "double back" that stores achievements, which will allow you to unlock extended art. The double back also stores badges from winning tournaments and stats from your gameplay with that card. Earning experience with that card allows you to unlock the foil version of the card.
- There are five different types of cards:
- Action - Cards are used to cast buffs, attack, or defend against other actions. Basic actions are only usable during your turn, quick actions are usable at any time, and once an action is over the card goes to the graveyard.
- Constant - Cards are the same as Action cards, but have effects that stay in play, preventing them from going to the graveyard.
- Artifact - Cards that are artificially created objects, such as robot troops or a cauldron.
- Troop - Cards that can attack, block, or defend, and stay in play until it is destroyed.
- Resource - Cards that grant resource points, a threshold, and a charge point.
- PvE
- You can form a guild with friends and save decks into a guild bank for other members to practice against.
- Your guild can also participate in guild tournaments and PvE raids.
- Dungeons are a solo experience, allowing you to lose three battles before having to restart. The more of a dungeon you explore and defeat, the higher your momentum, and the greater your reward at the end.
- Raids involve three players fighting against a strong enemy.
- The choices you make while playing through dungeons and raids will change the story, making it a unique experience.
- You can trade cards and equipment with other players, or sell it in the auction house.
- In PvE, your champion will level through gaining experience. This will make your champion stronger and change the art on the card. Every 10 levels you will earn a talent point, allowing you to choose from one of three talents.
- Equipment is only used in the PvE campaign, and is used to improve the card it is attached to.
- Champions
- Each champion has six equipment slots, allowing you to place up to three pieces of equipment on one card, or spread them out on different cards. Some cards have set bonuses.
- There are 20 champions to choose from in PvP and each has a champion power, similar to the Hero Power in Hearthstone.
- There are six classes to choose from: Cleric, Ranger, Warlock, Mage, Rogue, and Warrior.
- There are two factions and eight races to choose from for your character.

Express Employment drive collects 3,000 lbs. for Food Bank
The Express Employment Professionals Rhode Island franchise, located in Warwick, is doing its part to fight hunger in the Ocean State. Already with strong connections to the Rhode Island Food Bank, the Make A Wish Foundation, and the Children's Miracle Network, this current drive comes out of an international effort put on by the parent company known as "Brand It Blue Day" that charges the franchises to get involved with issues in their communities.
Here in Rhode Island, the Food Bank is looking for non-perishable "kid-friendly" food to be used this summer in summer youth programs, meeting the increased need for food during the summer months.
Liliana Dolan, the franchise's owner, described the response to the drive. On Monday, the company dropped off more than 514 pounds of food to the Food Bank. This amount resulted from clients filling bags originally given to them by the franchise. An additional 2,500 pounds of food have been collected through going door to door and donations brought to the office.
The delivery of all donations was originally planned for June 8, but since the Food Bank is closed on Saturdays, the pickup has been moved to either Wednesday or Thursday of this week.
But the support from Express won't stop there. Inspired by this success, the franchise will continue to collect donations throughout the summer and Dolan hopes to partner more with the Food Bank in the future. The goal is to develop a working relationship in which the franchise collects food for those in the community and in turn, the Food Bank directs individuals who are looking for jobs to become clients of Express.
Reflecting on the experience thus far, Susie Esposito, business developer for the franchise, which provides guidance to those seeking employment, shared that she has had a lot of fun picking up donations and would like to offer thanks to all those who have given thus far.
She also turned to a quote from the T-shirt given to volunteers for the "Brand It Blue Day" to sum up the effort, "Putting a million people to work and doing good in our communities."
Donations can be brought to 110 Jefferson Blvd. Suite E.

Each of today's readings refers in some way to creation and the natural world, and also reveals something about the relationships between God and creation; man and creation; and creation and salvation.
The reading from the prophet Isaiah assumes, of course, that God is Creator and that he sustains all things by his might and mercy. The earth is watered and nourished by the rain and snow; thus it is "fertile and fruitful," ready for the seed of the sower. Creation, in other words, has been made not only to sustain mankind, but to help us grow and thrive. But we also know that man, as Jesus told the devil in the desert, "does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God" (Mt 4:4; cf. Dt 8:3). God not only sends forth rain and snow, he also sends forth his word and, he says, my word "shall not return to me empty, but shall do what pleases me, achieving the end for which I sent it."
The early Church Fathers understood this statement to be fulfilled in the sending of the Incarnate Word into the world. Yet, as we know from the Gospels and from our own experience, the world is not always receptive to the Word. However, St. John writes: "And the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory" (Jn 1:14). Mary, the Apostles, the disciples — they not only saw the Word, they lived with him, walked with him and followed him.
The apostle Paul did not encounter the life-giving Word until after the Resurrection, but he was transformed thoroughly by Christ. "So whoever is in Christ is a new creation," he wrote to the Corinthians, "the old things have passed away; behold, new things have come" (2 Cor 5:17). Creation, he told the Romans, awaits the revelation "of the children of God." Wounded by the Fall, creation anticipates being "set free from slavery to corruption." Paul, in a remarkable turn of phrase, wrote, "We know that all creation is groaning in labor pains even until now." The salvation of man is intimately connected with the salvation — the re-creation, if you will — of creation itself, an awesome mystery, that will somehow culminate in a "new heaven and a new earth" (Rv 21:1). And we, Paul explained, "groan within ourselves," for we who are in Christ wait for adoption, "the redemption of our bodies."
In commenting on the parable of the seed and the sower, Jesuit Father Richard Gutzwiller offers an insight further connecting these themes. Parables, he states, both reveal and hide. Using earthly images, often drawn from agricultural settings, Jesus conveyed heavenly realities, but in an indirect or cryptic way, drawing listeners into the mystery without blinding them with the pure light contained within. "Behind all of this," explains Father Gutzwiller in "Day by Day with St. Matthew's Gospel," "lies the fact that the whole of creation is a parable about God."
The natural world declares the glory of God; it points to the One who created, sustains, loves. In Jesus the supernatural enters the natural realm in a most singular way. And the Word, who is Creator, draws upon creation to reveal salvation and the kingdom. Just as the word of God is likened to a seed, Jesus connects the seed, in his parable, to the "word of the kingdom." This seed is the "good news" of his saving death and resurrection, by which the kingdom is established and revealed.

In 2004, in an essay in the Mexican magazine Letras Libres, Horacio Castellanos Moya recalled how, on a rainy August afternoon in San Salvador in 1978, he and two friends, all three of them poets in their early 20s, were interrupted by a knock on the door as they put together the ninth issue of their literary magazine El Papo/Cosa Poética (The Jowl/Poetic Thing). The fat man in an untucked shirt who came to the door was looking for someone who didn't live there, but the tone of his voice and the military jeep across the street told the true story–somehow the poets had attracted the attention of the secret police.
None of the three were involved in politics. In fact, they had started the magazine because they felt trapped between the right-wing extremism of El Salvador's newspapers and the doctrinaire demands of the left-wing Latin American literary establishment. Their passions were literary, Modernist, even esoteric: they were reading poets like Pessoa, Michaux, Perse, Milosz, Montale, Pavese, in translations published in Argentina. And yet by the end of 1978, military death squads were blowing up the bookstores that sold poetry in translation, and the career paths for young writers had changed: instead of becoming journalists or professors or novelists, they could become organizers or guerrilla leaders or press agents for the revolutionary forces of the FMLN.
The shift came gradually, but as civil war took hold in El Salvador, it trespassed deep into not only the reality of everyday life but also the world of the imagination, of aspiration, of expectations. A day came when no one questioned the fact that poets carried Uzis in their backpacks, and that instead of Pessoa and Michaux they read Lenin and Clausewitz. Castellanos Moya's friends became "proletarianized" and organized strikes. Castellanos Moya himself observed the early stages of this from afar. His family had the means to send him out of the country, and by February 1979 he was in Toronto, watching the war on television. Near the end of the year, he was back–letters had come pleading for him to return, Toronto was cold–but he felt, as he says in the Letras Libres essay, like an extraterrestrial, an alien in a world of war, terror, weapons and conspiracy.
The civil war, which ended in 1992, shaped Castellanos Moya's life and his fiction, but it never seems to have conquered his imagination. Though most of his novels (there are now nine) revolve in some way around the war and its aftereffects, Castellanos Moya never assimilates or romanticizes the culture of violence, never loses his hyper-awareness of its strangeness. As a writer, he is at once highly sensitive to brutality and unsentimental about it. In the brilliantly funny and unsettling Senselessness, which in 2008 became his first novel to be translated into English, the narrator is a writer who has taken a job copy-editing an eleven-hundred-page human rights report on the massacre of Indians during the civil war in an unnamed Central American country, and who finds himself struck by the strange beauty of the language in which the victims describe the violence of their aggressors. The phrases he copies down migrate into his banal accounts of office politics and failed seductions, until gradually the horrors that the Indians describe leak into his consciousness and turn what was a mild case of the jitters into raging paranoia.
