The Outrigger Laguna Phuket Beach Resort in Thailand recently celebrated its official opening. It was only last July that Outrigger announced its purchase of the 20-acre property on Bang Tao Beach, Laguna Phuket, a 20-minute drive south from Phuket International Airport.
"The acquisition and opening of the Outrigger Laguna Phuket Beach Resort gives Outrigger a wonderful and iconic resort property in Phuket, a remarkable holiday destination that goes from strength to strength," said David Carey, president and CEO of Outrigger Enterprises Group. "Early indications are that our new property will do very well in the family, couples and active lifestyle segments of the global holiday market."
Outrigger Laguna Phuket Beach Resort is the only hotel in Laguna Phuket to offer Club services. Guests of Club accommodations get to check-in and check-out at the resort's private lounge. They also receive special amenities, have access to a personal concierge and can enjoy breakfast and evening refreshments in an exclusive dining room.
At the resort's opening ceremony, Darren Edmonstone, managing director, Asia-Pacific for Outrigger Enterprises Group, noted that the property has unique features that were already distinguishing the resort from its competitors. He said that the property's exclusive Club Lounge privileges — large water slide and kids' club, sports facilities and fully rejuvenated rooms, suites and villas, all with sea or lagoon views — made the property a "world-class product."
The design for the completely revamped rooms and hotel landscaping was carried out by P49, an acclaimed Bangkok-based design company. One of the main features of the property is its Thai sense of arrival created by a lobby area with a wooden Thai house theme and traditional Thai images and artifacts. The lobby offers views out to the waters of the Andaman Sea. Walking paths connect accommodations to the calm lagoon and beach at Bangtao Bay. Perks for guests include free Wi-Fi access and complimentary trolley bus and ferry transport around Laguna Phuket.
"We are particularly proud of our five innovative food and beverage outlets," said Edmonstone, "especially Locavore, which will set new benchmarks in ethical dining by sourcing the freshest locally-produced food from farmers and fishermen in the Phuket area."
The aim of Locavore is to emphasize seasonality, sustainability and traceability through education and a close relationship with local farmers, fishermen and suppliers. The carbon emissions of getting the food to the table will be minimized as well.
Edmonstone went on to say that outstanding dining options were also available at Edgewater, the resort's all-day beachside bistro, Metzo's Mediterranean restaurant and in the Club Lounge, which according to Edmonstone is "designed like a Thai pier house." Guests can also enjoy the Icon Lounge, a chill-out bar with modern Asian music and molecular cocktails.
The new resort opening means that Outrigger now has four properties open in Asia: Outrigger Laguna Phuket Beach Resort, the Outrigger Laguna Phuket Resort and Villas, the Outrigger Phi Phi Island Beach Resort and O-CE-N Bali by Outrigger, the latest addition to the Outrigger resort portfolio in Asia.

SAN ANTONIO, Jan. 18 (UPI) -- Tony Parker scored six points during a game-closing run Friday that lifted San Antonio to a 95-88 triumph over Golden State.
San Antonio won its third straight and improved its home record to a league-best 18-2. The Warriors have dropped three in a row and five out of six.
It was a tie game with seven minutes to go before the Spurs went on a 13-6 surge to end the contest.
Tim Duncan put San Antonio in front for good on a jumper with 6:12 remaining. A 3-pointer from Danny Green with 1:30 to play put the Spurs in front by seven.
Parker finished with 25 points and Duncan had 24 along with 10 rebounds. San Antonio went 18-of-20 from the foul line.
Golden State was led by David Lee with 22 points, Klay Thompson with 21 and Jarrett Jack with 20.

On Our Radar: The Office Slacker
Radio silence after applying for a job? Some 75% of jobseekers who applied to jobs last year through a variety of channels got no response from the potential employers, according to a CareerBuilder survey. —Rachel Emma Silverman
Here's how Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz shut down a shareholder who questioned the company's pro-gay marriage stance. —Nikki Waller
Companies are getting serious about "pay for performance" — the nonbinding vote, introduced in 2011, that gives shareholders a chance to weigh in on CEO compensation, according to WSJ. More than half of the pay awarded to 51 CEOs last year was tied to their companies' performance. –Leslie Kwoh
Even though Yahoo and Best Buy are headed in the other direction, some employees are still angling to telecommute. LifeHacker breaks down the tools you'll need to get the all-clear and work from home. –Melissa Korn
And finally…
We all can relate: A teammate slacks off, leaving you to finish the bulk of the work (and to cancel your evening plans once again). Fortune's "Ask Annie" column advises against the grin-and-bear-it approach; the slacker may be led to assume his or her behavior is acceptable. But don't wait until you're boiling mad, either. –Leslie Kwoh

A 33-year-old Southbridge man with alleged ties to a white supremacist group was ordered held without bail today on charges stemming from a Dec. 13 home invasion in Dudley.
Darrell Friedland of 917 Main St., Southbridge, was secretly indicted Tuesday on home invasion and armed burglary charges involving allegations that a Sturbridge farmer, seeking to collect on a drug debt, hired men with ties to a white supremacist prison gang to injure a Dudley couple.
Mr. Friedland entered not-guilty pleas to the charges at his arraignment this morning in Worcester Superior Court and was ordered held without bail. Assistant District Attorney Joseph A. Quinlan reserved his right to request a dangerousness hearing for Mr. Friedland. Mr. Friedland's lawyer, Sarah Hamilton, told the court her client was waiving his right to have such a hearing held within seven days.
A judge could determine after such a hearing that Mr. Friedland poses a danger to the public or to a particular individual and order that he be held without bail for up to 90 days while awaiting trial.
Authorities said the male victim suffered a head injury in the Dec. 13 home invasion at 42 Oxford St., Dudley, and the woman suffered a leg injury.
The farmer, 61-year-old Jeffrey Hoenig of Sturbridge, and two other suspects, Dennis Burke, 26, and Aaron Hadley, 41, both of Southbridge, were ordered held without bail after a Jan. 9 dangerousness hearing in Dudley District Court. Another suspect, 41-year-old Ryan Cross, was arraigned last week in Dudley District Court and ordered held without bail.
Mr. Cross, Mr. Hadley and Mr. Burke are each charged with home invasion, armed assault in a dwelling, mayhem, and conspiracy. Mr. Hoenig is charged with felony for hire and two counts of conspiracy.
Authorities said Mr. Friedland, who was arrested Dec. 28 after allegedly firing a gun outside a bar, later admitted his involvement in the Dudley home invasion and implicated the others.
State Police Sgt. Michael Sampson testified at the Jan. 9 dangerousness hearing that Mr. Friedland admitted he was a captain in the Aryan Brotherhood and said he identified Mr. Cross and Mr. Hadley as members of the group and Mr. Burke as a prospect.
Mr. Hoenig allegedly hired the men to break the victims' legs using bats, according to Sgt. Sampson's testimony. Mr. Hoenig, Mr. Hadley, Mr. Burke and Mr. Cross were arrested in a two-state New Year's Day raid by the South County Crime and Drug Task Force.
Sgt. Sampson said items recovered by police from Mr. Hoenig's home at 30 Ladd Road, Sturbridge, included rifles, shotguns, a revolver and a photograph depicting a Ku Klux Klan member holding a black person on a leash.
Mr. Hoenig's lawyer, Richard A. Eustis, said his client's record had been clean for 30 years, except for motor vehicle violations. The guns found in the home were either given to Mr. Hoenig by his father or bought when he was a young boy and were used to keep coyotes away from Mr. Hoenig's chickens, Mr. Eustis said.
Judge Janet Kenton-Walker, who ordered that Mr. Friedland be held without bail without prejudice, continued his case to Feb. 14.

Fast, versatile, healthy cooking — simply delicious. Choose the cooking option combining steam and convection that's ideal for your dish. Steam vegetables to retain up to 22% more vitamins than convectional cooking, or use a convection mode to prepare multiple dishes at once without worrying about odour or flavour transfer.
Healthier and More Nutritious...Secrets of Steam
Cooks have long appreciated the way steam cooking preserves nutrients and keeps foods moist. The Wolf convection steam oven makes steam do so much more.
Wolf steam convection does things you've never thought possible. Perfect, fluffy couscous without butter. A richly browned roast chicken that's the juiciest you've ever tasted. Crusts that glisten without an egg wash.
Like several appliances in one...Guesswork? Gone.
Meals that used to require multiple appliances, and multiple pots and pans, can now be prepared beautifully with just one. The automatic modes and customised manual functions eliminate guesswork.
Pre-heating is extremely fast; your meal is ready that much quicker. There simply has never been a more versatile cooking instrument.
Wolf convection steam ovens' large water reservoir means you can install them anywhere — no plumbing needed. The 762mm M series Professional convection steam oven is an ideal complement to Wolf's Professional M series oven. Design elements such as handles and frames match, and both ovens may be installed flush with your cabinetry if you wish.
It's one smart oven. For each food, the oven knows the best combination of steam and convection. It can actually sense the moisture content of the food and adjust for ideal results. When's dinner? Select Slow Roast and tell the oven what time you want to serve the meal. It programs itself to finish at that moment. Hot, fresh, with meat properly rested - perfect.
"Impossible" new dishes. With Wolf's precision control technology, the "impossible" becomes an everyday occurrence. Case in point: filo-wrapped ice cream. Hot, delicate, crispy-brown pastry surrounds ice cream still firmly frozen. Astonishing. And impossible for any other oven. Company for breakfast? Place a dozen eggs in the oven, carton and all. Press a button. In minutes, you have hard-boiled eggs for table or refrigerator.
The oven's large water tank provides 90 minutes of continuous steam cooking. Thoughtfully designed, it can be refilled when needed without opening the oven door and interrupting the cooking process.
More than 25 percent larger than similar units, large enough to roast a 7kg turkey, Wolf's steam oven lets you prepare larger items and even multiple dishes at once.
Install the unit flush with cabinetry to seamlessly integrate it into your kitchen design. And since the unit isn't plumbed, it can be installed anywhere without requiring special water lines.
Precisely control heat, steam and airflow for the best results with any dish with 10 cooking modes: Steam, Reheat, Auto Steam Bake, Convection, Convection Humid, Convection Steam, Gourmet, Slow Roast, Recipes, and Keep Warm.
Steam mode heats with steam and hot air, achieving a temperature range from 29C-99C. From vegetables, poultry and fish to grains, beans, pasta and egg dishes, gentle steam heat is ideal for capturing nutrition,colour and flavour.
Reheat mode uses steam and hot air to rehydrate food gently. Using convection and the right amount of moisture, Reheat mode warms one to four pans of food evenly and without drying with a temperature range from 98°C to 148°C.
By heating with steam first, then using convection heat to finish, bagels, breads, buns, rolls and pastries acquire a tender interior and a natural shine without the need for brushing with an egg wash. Auto Steam Bake mode temperatures range from 98°C to 229°C.
A fan circulates hot air from a heating element at the back of the oven to distribute heat evenly around food for consistent results and browning. Convection mode temperatures range from 29°C to 229°C.
In Convection Humid mode, a heating element at the back of the oven produces heat and oven ventilation is sealed so that moisture produced during cooking remains in the oven. Convection Humid temperatures range from 29°C to 229°C.
Use Convection Steam for any foods you want to be tender inside and roasted or crisped outside. Convection steam mode temperatures range from 29°C to 229°C.
Gourmet mode uses a climate sensor to adjust time, temperature and humidity for ideal results with no guesswork.
Slow Roast mode is an ultimate convenience. Insert the probe into your prepared meat, select a slow roast setting for the dish you're preparing, tell the oven what time you want it done, and come home to a perfectly cooked meal.
Use Recipes mode and the collection of built-in recipes to harness the power of the oven's many different cooking modes to easily cook entire meals from appetisers and main courses to desserts.
The combination of convection and steam heat preserves food's taste, texture, looks and quality so every bite is as delicious as if it were fresh from the oven. Keep multiple dinner plates warm at once, making staggered meal times more convenient.

Done Right Media needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 120 designs submitted by 17 freelance designers.
Contact Celebrity Resource
We provide a service which teaches people exactly how to get in touch with their favorite celebrities.
About 75% female from ages 18-35, and 25% male (same age group). It's going to be the same demographic as who hangs out on perezhilton.com and watches MTV shows like "The Hills".
This design project is for the first page of the site. It is the landing page that users will see when they click one of our ads. The winner of this contest will have the opportunity to work with our company on this project and others long term if they wish.
Please follow the template: "LAYOUT GUIDE FOR PAGE.jpg"
Please feel free to use your creative muscles and really make this page eye-catching.
The site should have a fresh, young, colorful, shiny look and feel but also professional. The structure will be a Google style, modelled after reversephonedetective.com, but the search function in the middle should be surrounded with a celebrity / Hollywood / fame / glamour theme.
Think perezhilton.com, People magazine or other "celeb gossip" styles. The same demographic that's interested in those will be who we're targeting to.
For the logo, please just write "Contact Celebrity Resource" in a font that is similar to the Hollywood sign in California (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2413…bd3078.jpg) and "glam" it up a bit.
Things to remember:
1) This contest will be guaranteed when 10 entries are received.
2) Detailed feedback will be provided.
We have attached some image files that portray the kind of style we're going for. We'd really like to see some submissions with an "animated" feel, similar to "kingofcontact.png", and also some without. Whatever fits your design style best.

Browns quarterback Jason Campbell blames himself for triggering Cincinnati's second-quarter storm of the century. The Browns lick their wounds and look to a must-win game against Pittsburgh.
The riches right under the Browns' noses turned into a flying fist.
There it was.
The cusp of the AFC North mountain top and a .500 record going into a home game against Pittsburgh seemed so real. Boom, a 13-0 lead. Andy Dalton's mind turned to mush on a Joe Haden pick-six.
Then the lights went out. Pitch dark. All at once.
It was as if Paul Brown shot a bolt from the sky to paralyze the franchise he built and got booted from, and to energize the other Ohio team he made.
The second quarter of a 41-20 loss had to be seen to be believed. Trailing 13-0 after a quarter, the Bengals outgained Cleveland just 78 yards to 57 in the second quarter; yet, went on a crazy 31-0 run.
"When you've got a team down," quarterback Jason Campbell said, "you've got to keep them down."
Haden played what captain D'Qwell Jackson called "the game of his career," but it barely mattered.
"I'm just a little upset right now," Haden said from his locker stall. "I'm just a little upset."
Jackson is sick of these kind of games, but he tried hard not to be downcast about his team's 1-4 skid.
"Yeah, it's disappointing," he said, "but we've got Pittsburgh coming up. We've got the next two games at home."
Beating the Steelers and Jaguars would put the Browns at 6-6. Despite their skid, they are a game out of a tie for the second wild-card spot.
Coming off an AFC player-of-the-week win over Baltimore, Campbell went bad. Turnovers hit. Special teams collapsed.
In that second quarter, the Bengals scored two touchdowns and a field goal on "drives" of 22, 38 and 9 yards., and two TDs on a return of a blocked punt and a return of a Chris Ogbonnaya fumble.
Points had been priceless Sept. 29, when the Bengals got beat 17-6 in Cleveland. Here, they poured.
The Browns never saw it coming. They stopped seeing anything ... everything. A telling subtle moment hidden behind the glaring gaffes:
With a minute left in the first half, Campbell had a chance at a huge play. The Browns trailed 28-13 and had a shot at saving face before intermission. Campbell dropped back and had Greg Little open by a mile on the right sideline.
Campbell fired the other way, into traffic. Not a chance. He never saw the wide-open guy. Little threw his arms up in disgust.
"The onus is on me," Campbell said. "It's very disappointing. I'm more disappointed in myself than anything."
Rather than getting to .500 this late in a year for the second time since 2002, the Browns fell to 4-6. Rather than pulling to within a half game of a first-place tie in the AFC North, they fell 2 1/2 games behind Cincinnati.
The Browns could have had a first quarter similar to Cincinnati's second quarter, but they milked just a 6-0 lead out of two big plays.
A 43-yard run by Ogbonnaya led to a first and goal on the 3, but they settled for a 20-yard field goal.
An interception moments later by Joe Haden set up the offense at the Cincinnati 14, but the payoff was a mere 28-yard field goal.
Haden's first career pick six made it 13-0, and the defense made a quick stop. Then came the play that changed everything.
A tipped pass and interception by James Harrison set up a 22-yard touchdown drive. Campbell saw that as a turning point.
"No one play makes a game," center Alex Mack said. "It was tough, but you've got to play a whole game."
The whole game came down to the minutes after the pick. The Bengals got the ball right back after a partially blocked punt and drove 38 yards for a score.
Soon after that, rookie Jayson DiManche's blocked punt resulted in a touchdown. In barely more than 10 minutes, the Browns went from leading 13-0 to trailing 21-13.
It was a knockout, even though they kept playing.
The Browns cut it to 31-20 on a big play but had no staying power on offense.
Immediately after Josh Gordon's 74-yard touchdown catch from Campbell in the third quarter, rain arrived in wind-blown sheets.
The flying fist hit much earlier.

Could someone please help me out too, i've been following the instructions...
i got my editor going, its real good except the only problem is the search function does not work and with all the players basically randomly scattered it makes it hard to find certain players.
dj i had that problem where it says "file not found" when you click open on magpie, heres what i done:
copied and pasted all my icc game files into a different folder(made a new one), then uninstalled icc2002, then installed it again and put all the game files in the new icc2002 folder then repeated all the editing steps, you lose nothing this way and it does not even take very long.

This is really ****ing me off.
I'm doing something like the CricketWeb ICC Team on another board.
I did the whole team last night, took me a while. When everything was sorted, I got to Single Player Career.
The thing that says loading stays there for a while. Then I get an error message.
Today, I re-did it all. Got into the game and clicked on New Game. Then went to the team. When I pressed start game, ICC just closed down and I was back at desktop.
Any help?
How much are you editing at once? I'm not convinced the player histories are totally safe to edit.
Suggest you change the raw data first, try then, and if it works back up and continue.

I'm not having trouble editing histories.
Just a question, when adding players, do I change the people at the top like C Charnock or something, or do I overwrite other players?
Okay, I finally got my team in to the game.
Now, I couldn't get rid of Mascarenhas, Mullally and Crawley from my squad with the editor.
What's worse, about seven of my players are on permanant international duty.
Up to you, but I don't know what would happen if you leave the Minor Counties with less than 11 players.Originally Posted by SirBloody Idiot

On September 17, 2009 the Wall Street Journal featured an article titled "Soldier to Receive the Medal of Honor."
President Obama awarded Jared C. Monti a posthumous award for repeatedly braving enemy fire to rescue a wounded comrade in the Afghan mountains. The article went on to say that Sgt. First Class Monti twice ran into the open to try to retrieve the wounded man, only to be forced back by rocket-propelled-grenades and machine-gun fire.
He was killed on his third attempt.

In November 2011, West Hollywood, Calif., became the first city in the U.S. to ban the sale of clothing made of animal fur. The ban goes into effect in 2013, and animal rights activists are hopeful that it will lead other cities to adopt similar measures and, ultimately, end the practice of using animal fur entirely.
If history is any indication, even an all-out nationwide ban on animal fur is unlikely to squelch demand. Rather, the likelihood is that it would simply create a black market for such items. After all, many luxury goods have existed for centuries and enjoyed widespread popularity despite official bans, and stiff penalties and long prison sentences for those found trafficking in or purchasing such goods. Clothing with animal fur has always had an image of luxury and sophistication for those who wear it, and banning it would likely do little to change that.
What are some in-demand luxury goods that enjoy worldwide status and popularity despite being banned? Click ahead and find out.

MANTECA - Buffaloes football coach Eric Reis believed he had the foundation of a championship team prior to this season, but he knew he needed a playmaker.
Luckily for Reis and Manteca, senior running back Alex Laurel was ready to be that player. Laurel's emergence behind a stacked offensive line that includes two third-year starters in left guard Billy Sharmoug and left tackle Isaac McClain has propelled the Buffaloes (8-1, 6-0) to the Valley Oak League championship. Manteca will close the regular season by hosting East Union (1-8, 0-6) at 7 p.m. today.
Laurel has 894 yards rushing and 17 touchdowns on 117 carries, along with 13 receptions for 183 yards and six touchdowns. The breakout has come after an up-and-down junior season, when he only touched the ball 40 times and was admittedly a mess off the field.
"Alex was immature as a junior, but he transformed himself," said Reis, who also won VOL crowns at Manteca in 2005, 2006 and 2010. "He put on 15 pounds of muscle and just matured as a man, and is a different person. He's been phenomenal."
It wasn't easy for Laurel to get to this point, and it took cajoling from his older brother, Guillermo Diaz, who returned home early from deployment in the Navy to help straighten out his younger brother. Laurel said he was hanging with the wrong crowd and short-changing himself in the classroom and on the field during his first three years at Manteca, but that began to change when Diaz returned last fall.
"Last year, I was going down the wrong path," Laurel said. "My brother was the big influence in my life. He was willing to get on my case about what I needed to be doing and told me all that stuff that I was doing wasn't going to get me anywhere."
Diaz said he had difficulties as a teenager as well, but he found discipline in the Navy, especially during his year-long deployment in the Indian Ocean. Diaz said he was getting constant updates from their mother, Elizabeth Laurel, about Alex's bad behavior and that led him to asking to come home early last October.
"I know his potential is through the roof and I knew he just needed some guidance, so I had to come home to provide it." said the 22-year-old Diaz, who currently lives in Daly City and is a student at the College of San Mateo.
That potential has come to fruition this fall behind Sharmoug and McClain, who have played together since sixth grade and are best friends off the field. Sharmoug and McClain also start on the defensive line and were primed for a big senior season together and are both glad Laurel has helped turn it into a reality.
"It's an honor to block for an athlete like that because when you get the blocks down, you know he's going to pick the right hole," Sharmoug said. "His end around (for a 46-yard touchdown) was crazy last week, where he shook everyone on (Sierra). After some point, I wasn't even blocking, I was just looking at his run in amazement."
The 5-foot-9, 170-pound Laurel has made big plays commonplace this season, including touchdown runs of 80, 56 and 55 yards.
"What makes him special is his ability to take a dive play to the house," Reis said.
Laurel said he's improved every facet of his game coming into the season and he's reaping the rewards on the field.
"I'm more nasty, I have better technique and better footwork," Laurel said. "I'm a speed guy, but when it gets tough, I'll put my shoulder down. I'm just an athlete. You can put me wherever, just give me the ball and let me make plays."

The Gardner Recall Committee filed a detailed campaign finance report Feb. 25, following an inquiry by investigators from the Johnson County District Attorney's Office. Many of the contributors are listed as "anonymous." The report reveals that Mayor Dave Drovetta and former council members Eric Schultz and the campaign of former council member Dennis Pugh were donors to the recall efforts against then-council members Mary Peters and John Shepherd. Tory Roberts, who sought election to the council in 2009, is also listed as a donor to the recall committee. Pugh, Roberts and Schultz were unsuccessful in 2009 bids for council seats losing to Peters.
Jared Taylor, who led the recall committee, along with Pugh and Roberts will be listed on the ballot for city council on April 5.
Campaign finance reports for 2010 were due at the Johnson County Election Office by Dec. 31, 2010.
A copy of the report is posted below and a letter from Ryan Beasley, treasurer for the Gardner Recall Committee, can be found here.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (Feb. 12, 2010) - After putting in numerous hours of practice during the fall and now the last few weeks leading up to the start of the season, the ETSU softball team is set to hit the diamond and kick off the 2010 season when the Lady Bucs head to Charlotte for the 49er Round Robin on Saturday.
The Lady Bucs, who raced out of the gates and posted their best 20-game start in program history a year ago, finished the season on a sour note to end up 27-28, 6-14 in Atlantic Sun action.
ETSU kicks off the season with an 11 a.m. first pitch against BIG EAST foe
Fans unable to make the trip to the D.L. Phillips Softball complex can catch all the action via live stats courtesy of the Charlotte Media Relations Department. To access live stats visit http://www.charlotte49ers.com/ or click on the link above.
For more information regarding the 2010 Lady Buccaneer softball program, check out the season preview below.
Building confidence and staying focused
Those are two things the ETSU softball team has worked on this preseason. Those two goals were lost a year ago after jumping out to their best start in school history (15-5), but at the end the Lady Bucs finished 27-28.
However, a new season is upon the Lady Bucs, and they will be led by their five senior leaders both on and off the field. The class of Cheniece Cason (
"I have been telling the seniors throughout the preseason that this is their team," commented head coach Andrea Mangrum. "These five ladies have the opportunity to go out on top and have everyone remember how they laid the foundation of a winning program."
Along with the five key seniors, ETSU returns six total starters and 11 letterwinners from a year ago. Joining the five are Atlantic Sun All-Freshman Team selection Amy Campbell (
The Lady Bucs lost key components in Jessie Hackworth (
"We lost a lot of power and speed with our senior class a year ago, but I felt my staff and I did a great job bringing in players to fill in those gaps," commented Mangrum. "Overall this freshman class will have a chance to fight for starting positions and playing time when the preseason begins in January."
With the Lady Bucs playing their second season in the newly constructed stadium, having key senior leadership and a deep bench, the sky is the limit for ETSU in 2010.
"Our team has one goal and one goal only - win a conference championship," said Mangrum. "The road getting there won't be an easy one; however, if we play fundamentally sound ball and stay focused as a team we are capable of making anything happen."
Pitchers and Catchers
The one area ETSU has strength and numbers is with its battery of pitchers and catchers. Seniors Marissa Hardy and Darci Gilbert are the catalysts in the circle while Trisha Massenzo hasn't lost a step with the play calling behind the plate. Over the last two years Hardy has combined for 36 of ETSU's 57 wins and Massenzo has started 147 of the 173 games over the last three years. Hardy, who holds the Lady Bucs' single season record for wins (19) and strikeouts (255), also fanned a program-best 16 batters against Presbyterian as a sophomore in 2008. Meanwhile, Massenzo led the club with 10 doubles and 28 RBIs in 2009 and has only missed four games in the last two years.
Joining Hardy in the circle is Gilbert, a right-handed hurler out of Murfreesboro, Tenn. Gilbert was on pace to have her best season in 2009, but shoulder injuries placed her on the disabled list throughout the major part of the conference race. The
"Marissa and Darci are the go-to pitchers on our staff this season," commented Mangrum. "They have the most D-I experience and their mental toughness will come into play when we face some strong competition. We expect both of these senior pitchers to produce in their final year and help this team win ballgames."
Junior Katie Henderson will also share duties with Massenzo behind the plate.
Back in the circle the Lady Bucs can also call to junior newcomer Jessica Duncan (
"Both Jessica and Shelby bring a different style of pitching to the team," added Mangrum. "They pitched a lot of innings for us in the fall, and that added experience will pay off once the season begins in February. We look to use both of them in certain game situations to keep the opposition off balance."
The Lady Buccaneer infield consists of a solid mixture of veterans and rookies. The middle infield slots will be filled by senior Cheniece Cason at short and sophomore Amy Campbell (
In addition to Campbell, a pair of freshmen will be used at second with Lucy Schneider (Dade City, Fla.) and Sam Lower (Sebring, Fla.) handling the chores. Schneider, who can also play short, is a valuable commodity with her bat, speed and defense. The Dade City, Florida, native hit .495 (48-for-97) with 10 doubles, three triples, three home runs and 35 RBIs as a senior at
"Our infield rotation will be based on who steps up and wants the job," commented Mangrum. "We have some key players who will contribute on a daily basis, but at other positions we will go with the hot bat and who is playing well."
Two of ETSU's three outfield positions are filled with sophomore Annie Martin (
"Katy and Annie are two solid outfielders as we enter the 2010 season," said Mangrum. "Their speed and strong arms are a valuable asset in left and center, and they are capable of making plays at any given time. They both play very well together."
The starting right field position will be a battle between three Lady Buccaneer players. Sophomore Marlina Delisa (Tucson, Ariz.), Tara Hartnett (Snellville, Ga.) and Jessica Duncan will contend for the starting job and can possibly split time in the gap depending on productivity in the position. In addition to those three, freshmen Whitley Hensley (
When looking at the 2010 ETSU softball schedule two words come to mind - "Road Warriors."
The Lady Bucs, who kick off the season with 24 consecutive road games, face six teams from NCAA Tournament play a year ago.
"I think playing 24 straight road games will bring this team closer," added Mangrum. "We wanted try to utilize our new stadium early in the season, but due to the weather conditions in East Tennessee we are forced to play in warmer climates."
ETSU kicks off the season playing in five tournaments - which begins on Feb. 13 in

ETSU wraps up its tournament play when the Lady Bucs make their longest road trip in school history, and seniors Marissa Hardy and Cheniece Cason make a visit to their home state of
"I feel all four of these tournaments will test the girls each and every weekend," Mangrum said. "Each tournament features teams from the top conferences, and opponents who reached the NCAA Tournament last season. I always feel in order to become stronger you have to play teams that are very successful, and I believe this format achieves that goal in 2010."
After the 24-game road trip - which covers four tournaments in four different states - the Lady Bucs finally say hello to
"The home-opener is always an exciting game, and I am sure the team will be ready to protect their home turf," mentioned Mangrum. "The early road games are critical, so we can enter the home opener on a high note and have the stadium filled for the game against Presbyterian."
The homestand doesn't last long for the Lady Bucs, as Mangrum's squad embarks on a three-game road swing to close out the month of March. ETSU begins Atlantic Sun Conference play with a series in the

Once again the Lady Bucs return home for a brief two-game home-stand when conference contenders Stetson and FGCU visit the newly built ETSU Softball Complex. The Lady Bucs host the Hatters on April 2 and Eagles on April 3.
During the final stretch of the season, the Lady Bucs split time both at home and on the road. ETSU travels to Blacksburg for a night game with Virginia Tech on April 6, before heading down to Florida for a critical A-Sun showdown with Jacksonville (April 9) and North Florida (April 10). Other road swings include a trip to
Following a trip to USC Upstate on April 25, the Lady Bucs wrap up regular season play with a three-series homestand starting on April 28 against
The Atlantic Sun Tournament and automatic bid to the NCAA Regional will again take place in
"The team knows what the goal is entering the season, and they know the journey to an A-Sun Championship won't be easy," said Mangrum. "They know the hard work in the fall and preseason will eventually pay off when the regular season rolls around. We can't take any opponent lightly and have to play fundamentally smart ball each time we take the field. If we follow this recipe, we know our goals can be reached."

VOXX Accessories Corp. Introduces Revolutionary Soundflow Wireless Audio
Soundflow lets consumers enjoy smartphone audio in a big way
Jan 07, 2013, 02:00 EST
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- LVCC, CENTER HALL, BOOTH 10404 -- VOXX Accessories Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of VOXX International Corp. (NASDAQ: VOXX), announced today the launch of a new line of products incorporating Soundflow wireless audio, which instantly transforms smartphone audio into sound that's rich and full. Soundflow requires no wires, no pairing. All you do is lay your smartphone on top of the product's built-in Soundmat. Soundflow does the rest by flowing your smartphone audio to larger speakers. Soundflow wireless audio supports virtually all brands and models of today's smartphones. In fact, almost any portable device with a speaker works with Soundflow wireless audio. VOXX Accessories Corp. will introduce 3 products featuring Soundflow wireless audio in 2013: 2 under the RCA brand and one (1) under the Acoustic Research brand.
"Soundflow grew out of a simple desire: to make it as easy as possible to turn smartphone audio into sound that's rich and full enough to enjoy out loud. Soundflow improves upon an existing technology - magnetic coupling - to give consumers the most straightforward way of enjoying the music on their smartphones," said David Geise, President of VOXX Accessories Corporation. "Making the technology suit the idea, however, was a bigger task than making a different speaker. To be more than just a novelty widget, Soundflow needed to fit the way consumers use their smartphones, satisfying expectations for aesthetics, performance, and functionality, which required extensive consumer research, together with an intimate knowledge of the engineering and design principles at work."
Soundflow integrates into the home, adding sound seamlessly and simply wherever consumers need it, fulfilling a real consumer need in the easiest, most straightforward way possible. VOXX Accessories Corp. is bullish on the future of the "contact" wireless sound market, with aggressive schedules for rolling out an extensive line of Soundflow products for audio around the home through the coming year and beyond.
The RCA Wireless Dock Clock Radio with Soundflow (RC250)
VOXX Accessories Corp. begins its line of Soundflow products with the RC250 Wireless Dock Clock Radio with Soundflow. The RC250 uses Soundflow technology to turn smartphone audio into richer, fuller sound. Just put your smartphone on the RC250 Soundmat, and Soundflow does the rest, amplifying smartphone audio through the larger speakers on the wireless dock. The RC250 also features 1 USB charging interface that supports iPhone, Android, eReaders and most tablets, clock radio functions such as dual wake and FM radio, as well as a .9" LED display. The RC250 will be available in May of 2013 and will retail for $29.99.
Geise continued, "In our market research for Soundflow, we've found overwhelming interest in the concept from consumers. To turn this interest into action, we've identified locations around the home where sound can be added to a strategic spot. The nightstand, for example, is an area of the home that has multiple functions and limited space. Still, consumers increasingly ask their nightstands to accommodate a smartphone as well. Our Soundflow wireless audio tabletop and clock radio pieces add smartphone music and charging to traditional nightstand functionality in a single item, starting at less than $30. We've designed Soundflow to add simplicity, not clutter."
The RCA brand is marketed by VOXX Accessories Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of VOXX International Corp., (NASDAQ: VOXX).

EA doesn't want DICE to become "a Battlefield factory," says Soderlund
EA Games vice-president Patrick Soderlund has said DICE is working on more than just Battlefield games at the Stockholm studio.
Speaking with OXM, Soderlund observed said there are roughly 300 people working at DICE and not all of them are working on the Battlefield franchise.
"Not all of them are working on Battlefield things, and that's intentional, because we don't want to become a Battlefield factory," he said. "The minute we start saying 'you're going to make a Battlefield game for the rest of your life', they're going to go some place else. So for them to make great Battlefield games there need to be other things for them to do as well.
"That's why we have people who move around quite a bit. And then obviously we have a boatload of people that just want to make Battlefield because they love it.
"Same thing with the team in San Francisco that are making Dead Space. It's a stunning team and they're passionate about what they do, and they love making Dead Space. Then the answer's 'well, then make Dead Space'. Then we have to figure out how to sell it and make it successful."
Soderlund touched upon the need for innovation and new IPs last month when he said the day EA stops doing new IP is "the day we put ourselves on life support and then we're slowly going to die."
"It's not only needed for the industry and for the consumers but it's also needed for the creatives," he said. "They need something different to think about. They have a lot of creativity built into them that they need to get out. The day that we stop thinking about new things… is the day that I'll probably leave the games industry."

State Sen. Mark Grisanti, R-North Buffalo, announced Monday that the Buffalo Niagara Partnership has endorsed his bid for re-election to represent the people of the 60th District in the New York State Senate. The Buffalo Niagara Partnership hosted a press event (with the Executive Director of Unshackle Upstate Brian Sampson; Andrew Rudnick, president and CEO of the partnership; and Mike Durant of the New York State Director of National Federation of Independent Business) to announce that Grisanti is the best candidate the business community can hope to see in this seat.
In endorsing Grisanti, the partnership highlighted his work to see the passage and implementation of the University at Buffalo 2020 plan, fighting for the continued funding of Roswell Park Cancer Institute, and lobbying for the Peace Bridge expansion project. Additionally, Grisanti was applauded for his work to pass legislation that ensures the entities located within 30 miles of the Niagara Power Project receive monetary compensation; legislation that creates a 20 percent tax credit for asbestos remediation in construction; legislation that makes the brownfield program permanent; legislation that expands the historic preservation tax credit program; and for working with the Department of Environmental Conservation to reduce the overly burdensome ballast water regulations.
"I am grateful for the endorsement of the partnership as it demonstrates a shared commitment to strengthening the Western New York economy and creating local jobs," Grisanti said. "Over the past two years, I have worked tirelessly to find ways to help small businesses grow, return people to work and ease the burdensome regulations placed on businesses of all sizes. I am proud to have ushered in two on-time state budgets that kept the 2-percent property tax cap and held the line on spending, including pension reform. If I am honored to continue to represent the people of the 60th District, I will continue to support legislation that ease the challenges confronting businesses and taxpayers."
The Buffalo Niagara Partnership includes nearly 2,500 employer members who work for improved business competitiveness and expanded economic activity in the region. The partnership also advocates at the local, state and federal level for policies and resources to increase private sector investment and jobs.
"Mark Grisanti is a friend to the business community and has demonstrated this time and time again. Throughout the course of his first term, he has taken the hard stand on issues that affect the climate of business in our region. The citizens of the 60th District have someone who will fight to keep taxes low, return jobs to our region and prevent downstate from benefiting from our natural water sources. I am pleased to announce the Buffalo Niagara Partnership's support of Mark Grisanti for re-election to the New York State Senate," Rudnick said.
Grisanti received the high score of 88 percent on the Unshackle Upstate Legislative Scorecard for the 2012 legislative session. Grisanti had the second best record in the Senate for the local Western New York delegation in support of budget votes, legislative votes and bill sponsorship with a focus on reducing taxes, cutting state spending, reducing state borrowing and curtailing mandates.
"Unshackle Upstate is pleased to endorse Mark Grisanti," Sampson said. "As is demonstrated by his solid 88 percent voting record in the 2012 legislative session, he continually thinks about New York taxpayers and employers when voting for legislation.

Time to Stand Down, help vetsBy KIMBERLY HOUGHTON
Union Leader Correspondent
September 13. 2013 8:44PM
NASHUA — In an effort to combat homelessness among New Hampshire veterans, a community event has been planned to help hundreds of veterans struggling to make ends meet.
Clothing, food, haircuts, employment counseling, legal advice, personal care items, blankets and boots will be provided to veterans in need during Harbor Homes' annual Stand Down event.
Harbor Homes, in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and a grant from the U.S. Department of Labor, is hosting the sixth annual Stand Down for homeless veterans from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday at 45 High St. in Nashua.
Its mission is to provide veterans with relief from the dangers, trauma and isolation of homelessness, supply them with basic necessities and raise community awareness about homelessness, according to a release.
It is also designed to bring together service providers, volunteers and professionals to create short-term and long-term solutions to poverty, homelessness and unemployment, said organizers.
"In 2011, there were over 67,000 homeless veterans around the country," says the release. More than 600 of those homeless veterans live in New Hampshire, and about 7,000 low-income veteran households in the Granite State are at risk of homelessness, according to Harbor Homes' website.
Tax services will be on hand, along with potential employers who are eager to talk to veterans about possible work opportunities or training programs. Food, vouchers, coupons and various products that will benefit veterans will be donated and available at the event.
"We encourage employers that are hiring to come and talk to our educated and qualified veterans about positions available in their companies," says a release issued by Jennifer Ceballos of Harbor Homes.
Combating homelessness is a joint effort that takes an entire community willing to assist by volunteering vital services and providing basic necessities, according to the statement. About 40 vendors participated in last year's Stand Down event.
Harbor Homes was previously awarded a $1 million grant to combat homelessness among state veterans. The funding is being used to help prevent or end homelessness among 300 low-income veteran households, and help New Hampshire achieve its goal to be the first state in the country to effectively end veteran homelessness.
Matthew Milbourn, a veteran and employee at Harbor Homes, described the upcoming Stand Down as "the largest gathering of resources and volunteers" in the state with one mission — to end veteran homelessness.
"It provides a positive impact on the community as it raises awareness for a very serious issue and provides otherwise non-existent access to support services for local veterans and their families," Milbourn said in a statement.
Harbor Homes is a local nonprofit group founded 30 years ago with the mission to create and provide quality residential and supportive services for individuals and their families struggling with mental illness or homelessness.

A suspect on the Boulder Police Department's most wanted list is back in custody after his arrest on suspicion of attempting to shoplift clothes at a T.J. Maxx store in Secaucus, N.J.
Jawad Khouir, 32, disappeared last fall. He'd been free at the time on a $20,000 bond, prior to his scheduled Oct. 25 sentencing in Boulder District Court for a conviction Aug. 1 on charges of sexual assault with force, felony menacing, third-degree assault and two counts of harassment.
He was assigned a spot on the Boulder department's most wanted list a short time later. The fact that Khouir is a Moroccan citizen had police worried he might leave the country, despite having had to forfeit his passport when posting bail.
"I did speak to the victim after he failed to appear for the sentencing, and she was extremely fearful for her safety," said Boulder Police Detective Jack Gardner. "The fact that we didn't know where he was -- this was a really violent assault that had occurred, and he's a dangerous guy. It's something we were very concerned about."
Additionally, Gardner said he was in touch with officials at ICE and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, "and they communicated to me that it was possible he had returned (to Morocco). These guys can find ways to get out of the country without a passport. I was very concerned he had fled the country."
But Gardner said that March 11, Khouir, who had altered his appearance since leaving Boulder by cutting his hair and growing a beard, was apprehended after putting $197.93 worth of merchandise in an Adidas duffle bag -- which also belonged to the store -- and trying to leave without paying.
A records check by Secaucus police showed the fugitive warrant from Colorado, and Boulder police were notified. Khouir did not fight extradition, according to Gardner, and he was returned to the Boulder County Jail on May 2, where he is being held on a $1 million bond.
He is now scheduled for sentencing on his original conviction at 3 p.m. May 22. The potential sentencing ranges on the two most serious charges on which he was convicted are four years to life, and one to three years, respectively.
Assistant District Attorney Ryan Brackley said no decision has been made yet whether to file additional charges relating to Khouir's flight from Colorado.
Khouir had been in a brief relationship with his victim early in 2011. She was about to break it off when she accepted a dinner invitation at his home in February 2011.
Following the meal, he sexually assaulted her when she refused to have sex with him, and also threw her on the ground and briefly strangled her. The victim did not initially report the crime, but did so after Khouir repeatedly emailed her, finally even showing up at her workplace.
Gardner has notified the victim that Khouir is back in custody.
"She was extremely relieved," Gardner said. "Basically, she started crying."

Iggy Pop is SO Cute!
If you felt like it, you could make a lot of money — maybe not millions or even six-figures, but a nice sum — if you manufactured a line of serial killer bobblehead dolls.
Tasteless? Rude? Certainly.
But, in this world? You'd sell a buttload.
Which, as an aside, brings to mind an interesting question: imagine the fun you'd have negotiating the merchandising rights for such things! In that context, people have bought and sold paintings by John Wayne Gacy for years. Is there, I dunno, a John Wayne Gacy, Inc.? Is there a big shot art gallery that reps his clown paintings? One of those Klaus people with a ponytail?
In that spirit, would the bobblehead entrepreneur just dial-up the Richard Speck Foundation and ask to speak with someone in marketing? "I have this great idea and I think Richard's family might go for it! Could be some nice residuals in it!"
All of this occurs to me because bobblehead dolls have sorta always seemed to me to be associated with athletes. The bobbleheads are cute and playful; the sporting-event equivalent of a well-loved teddy bear.
And yet I just received an offer to pre-order one of what will only be 1,000 Iggy Pop bobblehead dolls. A company called Aggronautix is the culprit, and apparently they are immortalizing several punk artists in this fashion.
But: Iggy Pop?!
Is this where the Ig-Man is at this point in his career?
The man who once dove into broken glass and shot heroin enthusiastically and smeared peanut butter all over himself, all the while braying that he was a street-walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm … is now a bobblehead doll?
Clearly, Iggy's not the brainiac behind this campaign, but there must be something in it for him, right? On the one hand, I want to say, Jeez, Iggy, if things are that bad, hire a good attorney and renegotiate your royalty rates.
On the other hand, if the demographic of aging Stooges fans has sufficiently mellowed that they might enjoy a nice Iggy bobblehead on the mantel next to the Thanksgiving card from cousin Bessie while they sip a cup of tea and watch the Weather Channel, why, who am I to argue?
I do fear that this is a harbinger of things to come.
I suspect that there are plenty of Music People who actually COULD sell bobblehead dolls — they just didn't think of it first.
I'm talking to you, Kevin Cronin. I'm talking to you, Hall & Oates. I'm talking to you, Kenny "Look at My Creepy Phantom of the Opera Face" Rogers. I'm talking to you, estates of John Denver and Dan Fogelberg.
Finally, I'm talking to you, Celine Dion. I've got room for one more bobblehead on the Bobblehead Shelf in my music room. I'll stick my Celine bobblehead doll right there, tucked neatly between my Richard Ramirez and the dudes in the Wu Tang Clan.

Several companies, recognizing the potential interest in electronic books, are attempting to get out ahead of the long-awaited Apple iTablet. Examples are the Amazon Kindle, the Sony Reader, and the Barnes & Noble Nook. However, soon after Apple ships its own competing product, these early efforts will become just a memory.
The thinking by Amazon, Sony and B&N is that if they can get out ahead, self-finance growth, establish a customer base, carve out the book market before Apple can crush them, then they'll survive, indeed flourish. But that plan, by itself, is insufficient and will fail.
Recall that Apple wasn't the first company to come out with a pocket MP3 music player, but the company certainly came to understand the inadequacies of the products offered in 2000-1. Waiting just a little bit was wise. Similarly, with mainframe computers, IBM held back advanced technology for decades, realizing that sometimes it's wise to cautiously size up the market rather than jump in with an innovative product that becomes a market failure.
Apple has things going for it that other companies don't.
- Apple has an enormous amount of cash and prestige. They can pour development resources into a product that Barnes & Noble cannot and then capture the public's imagination. Maybe Sony can, but Sony has a poor track record when it comes to product design and user interface.
- Apple recognizes that a few people will pay several hundred dollars for a dedicated book reader, but that many more will buy an all-purpose device that lets the customer also watch movies, listen to music, make phone calls, read e-mail an so on. We always return to that question: how many devices do we want to cary around? Which of the competing book readers should one invest in?
- Apple has a way of generating astounding unit sales that leverage off its other products -- a visible reality in its retail stores. As a result, even if the current book readers have agreements for content, when the iTablet ships, and competitors look at the sales numbers, they'll gasp in disbelief. Then they'll grudgingly ask themselves the key question: "Are we in the hardware business or the content selling business."
- Apple has the financial resources to buy flash memory and other commodity computer parts at the most favorable rates and get to the front of the line. As a result, any dedicated book reader with relatively low volume sales is going to look like a poor investment compared to what one gets with an Apple iTablet.
- Apple has the data center expertise, thanks to iTunes, to provide a better buying experience than most competitors. Apple's competitors will go into this effort half-hearted, hoping that an early lead will relieve them of having to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on infrastructure. They'll hope that an early sales lead will finance growth rather than be forced into an initial, big, risky capital investment.
In subtle ways, without being able to enumerate the list above, customer awareness of the various book readers will naturally focus on limitations, price, conflicting standards, interoperability with existing devices and practicality.
I fully expect that a year from now, Sony and Barnes & Noble will throw in the towel and jump on the iTablet bandwagon, hoping to make money selling content rather than dabbling in hardware. The Kindle will linger on a bit longer, thanks to corporate hubris, but it too will fade into the sunset as Apple does for the personal slate reader what it did for the pocket MP3 player and the smartphone.

Boasting a classic design, innovative technologies and premium materials, the adidas by Rick Owens Springblade sneaker was unveiled during the Paris Fashion Week event, where it was highly appreciated by adidas fans. It's not hard to understand why such a fantastic sneaker would become popular, especially once we consider its eye-catching and highly advanced Springblade sole technology.
The kicks were made out of high quality leather, mesh and suede, which means that they are lightweight, comfortable and breathable. Apart from their classic appearance, the adidas by Rick Owens Springblade sneakers will also come with a low cut design and with boot-like design, which means that adidas fans would have plenty of choices to pick from. The normal, boot and low-cut version are expected to become available for purchase this year, which is good news for all you sports fans out there.

The Book on Boutin
There have been a lot of questions surrounding goaltending prospect Jonathan Boutin in the last week or so.
Eyebrows were first raised roughly a week ago when Boutin, a 2003 third round pick who was named AHL Goaltender of the Month last December for AHL Springfield, was demoted to ECHL Mississippi and Ryan Munce was named the backup netminder in Norfolk.
Just a few days and one Admirals regular season game later, it was learned Ramo would miss 3-4 weeks with a high ankle sprain, opening the door for Boutin's return.
However, eyebrows were raised even higher when Morgan Cey was named to the Admirals roster instead of Boutin, who was thought to be a sure-thing for Norfolk going into the season.
With no reports of an injury to Boutin, what contributed to this apparent fall from grace?
According to the Lightning, Boutin did not have a good training camp in Norfolk, though he showed signs of stronger play toward the end of the camp. The collective thought among all Lightning staff, including Norfolk coaches, was Munce and Cey had simply outplayed Boutin, on whole, during the camp.
As Lightning followers know, players earn roster spots based on a meritocracy system. The fact Boutin had more AHL experience (59 games) than Munce (0) and Cey (2), did not outweigh his poor camp performance.
Also factoring into the decisions was Boutin violated an unspecified team rule. According to Lightning General Manager Jay Feaster, the club has addressed the issue and moved forward.
However, for a variety of reasons, Boutin was assigned to the ECHL and told to "play his way back to the AHL level."
Feaster states the injury to Ramo "certainly opens the door for [Boutin], provided he gets himself 'together' and gets the job done … and assuming Munce and Cey don't close the door on him by their own performances.
"The injury creates a great opportunity for all three.â€
Thanks to their camp performances, Munce and Cey will get the first opportunities under the meritocracy system, starting with Munce's AHL debut tonight in Bridgeport. He was called up to Springfield last season but did not see game action.

McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (NYSE: MHP) is a global information services provider doing business in the education, financial services, and business information markets. The company does everything from selling textbooks to providing credit ratings and even operates television stations. Operating in three distinct segments – Education, Financial Services, and Information & Media – the company has several strong brand names in McGraw Hill Publishers, Standard & Poor's, J.D. Power & Associates, and formerly BusinessWeek (which was officially sold to Bloomberg L.P.). In FY 2010, McGraw-Hill's revenue was $6.1 billion.[1]
McGraw-Hill operates under three main business segments:
McGraw-Hill is in essence a provider of information through a variety of mediums and in a number of fields. Positive trends such as continued strong demand for information, population growth, college enrollment, globalization, financial sector expansion, and technology all provide tailwinds for the company.
Businesses of the world need capital, and they often raise it through the issuance of debt. Financial services companies that provide this capital rely on objective, trusted opinions to understand how much risk they are assuming and what may represent an appropriate interest rate. McGraw-Hill's Standard & Poor's provides such a service, and an increase in businesses capital needs correlate with a rise in demand for S&P's ratings. The growth in the global issuance of rated debt has grown at a compound annual rate of approximately 23% since 2002, providing a tremendous tailwind for S&P.
Capital markets have also become more complex and rapidly changing, providing both a challenge and an opportunity for the company. While increasing complexity and change makes it more difficult for S&P to provide reliable and consistent ratings, it also boosts the demand for ratings from investors, who face the same daunting task of analyzing more complex securities and obligations.
Complex structured finance products typically involve an entity (corporation or government) using "safer" and more reliably creditworthy assets such as accounts receivable as collateral for debt. Such a transaction enables the company to obtain a lower interest rate on issued debt by isolating the "safe" collateral asset from the company itself (the less safe alternative). For instance, a company rated B by S&P may be able to use its accounts receivable to obtain an A investment grade rating on debt. The number of assets used in such transactions has increased in the past two decades. Whereas only around 20 asset classes were "packaged" for securitization in 1990, over 200 are currently available. Structured obligations are typically highly complex than standard issuances of corporations and governments, and as a result, investors enjoy the benefit of a trusted, easily understood rating from S&P.
The trends of general growth and increasing complexity in the global capital markets will likely continue worldwide. Markets continue to emerge, global economic expansion continues to fuel demand for capital and, as a result, firms and investors seek more sophisticated means of securitizing asset classes, which in turn bring in more ratings fees for S&P. S&P continues to expand internationally to capitalize on these trends, though the majority of its revenue still comes from the United States, the world's largest and most advanced capital market.
Over the past decade, print publications have suffered a vicious cycle of decline. New, cheaper, easier-to-access mediums, most notably the Internet, have led to lower generally lower circulation and readership of traditional publications like magazines, newspapers, and other periodicals. As this happened, advertisers simultaneously began leaving or paying less for exposure. These compounding factors have produced eroding margins and declining profits for many companied depending on revenue from traditional media advertising.
McGraw-Hill's Information & Media segment has suffered much the same fate, though it has seen top-line growth through acquisition (such as JDPA).
However, the company has also been able to capitalize on technological innovation by introducing new products itself. The company's Information & Media division, along with competitors, has moved towards building out their own Internet properties and expand its online presence. The low barriers to entry and extreme competition for viewership on the Internet may likely lead to permanently lower margins.
The broader impact of the Internet on McGraw-Hill's business may have a generally positive net effect. These advances have facilitated the flow and accessibility of information about investments available throughout the world. The globalization of the financial world boosts demand for S&P's services as it practically necessitates a credible rating system to compare different geographic regions on a standard scale. S&P provides a convenient and trustworthy way for sizing up all opportunities and making sense of the vast amount of information flowing among market participants.
The company maintains market share dominance in its two largest segments, Education and Financial Services, each of which have a number of formidable competitors. The most notable competitors by segment are:
