Hey everyone,
Just wanted your thoughts if you feel the same about this move. Everytime I meet a pet, or cast it myself, it states the move reduces all pets accuracy by 10%, but it definately feels like more than 10%, whether thats in your favour or not. Anyone know if its working as intended?

The Bahco S4RM ratcheting spanners are made from top quality forged steel, nickel which is then chrome-plated in a matt-finish for a smooth and secure grip.
Easy to use, these spanners simply grip the nut or bolt being removed or replaced, the ratcheting spanner heads are sized either side of each spanner for the desired size of nut or bolt, then just push the direction lever to remove or replace the nut or bolt with ratchet action.
They are an ideal option for motor mechanics, motorcycle repairs etc., as these spanners can be used in awkward places and minimal movement action is required to use them.

text: Two Clemson recruiters met with DE Carl Lawson of Alpharetta, GA Thursday at his house according to his coach Howie DeCristofaro. Tony Elliott and Marion Hobby got together with Lawson. "They are all trying to figure out where he's going," the coach said. Auburn recruiter Rodney Garner visited with Lawson Wednesday night and apparently the visit went well. Whatever issues the two have had seems to have been put behind them. Lawson visited Clemson last weekend and will go to Tennessee this weekend. He's taking the SAT the next weekend but according to his coach, he has an itinerary to visit North Carolina starting Saturday afternoon. Lawson plans to visit Auburn the final weekend.


text: Thanks for linking this video! Pretty good rundown on Dr. Who history--learned quite a lot from it. Many years ago, I watched Dr. Who while Tom Baker was the doctor. I really liked his personification and his successor really soured it for me; couldn't adjust to him. Anyway, what a ragtag run of doctors since... until David Tennant. I haven't seen many of his episodes yet, but I like the way he plays the doctor, probably even more than Tom Baker. The newest guy, Matt Smith, portrays an interesting variation. A little more nerdy than Tennant, but he seems well positioned to do a great job.

When Laurel Hill School teacher and coach Ronnie Smith asked me to do a story on a fundraiser for former LHS athlete Katie Free, I was more than happy to help. I had the opportunity to cover Katie throughout her Hobo career, and she has always been a great ambassador for the school and community.
When Laurel Hill School teacher and coach Ronnie Smith asked me to do a story on a fundraiser for former LHS athlete Katie Free, I was more than happy to help.
I had the opportunity to cover Katie throughout her Hobo career, and sShe has always been a great ambassador for the school and community.
A Boston butt fundraiser is 3-6 p.m. Feb. 21 across from Laurel Hill School. Butts cost $20 each and proceeds benefit Free, who awaits a heart transplant.
It didn't surprise me that Smith and others within the Laurel Hill community wanted to help Smith. Small towns and teammates have a way of reaching out to one of their own.
My little corner of the world was shaken about the time I was writing the story on Katie's fundraiser, which appeared in Saturday's News Bulletin.
Last week, I learned that one of my high school teammates and best friends, Mort Deer, has throat cancer and is in a hospital in Mobile.
Mort played receiver for Gulf Breeze High School's football team and was a sprinter and long jumper on the Dolphin track team. He competed against Crestview and Baker in track and played football at Jack Foster Stadium. He even once served as a makeshift windshield wiper for the track team one day, but that's another story.
The last several days have been spent working, sleeping and communicating updates on Mort's condition on Facebook.
Sunday, I made the trip to Alabama, stopping off in Summerdale to meet my best friend and teammate, Ken Hardy. Together, we made the trip to Mobile to visit Mort and share our love and support for him.
While visiting with him, we found out he needs help dealing with the cost associated with cancer. And now, Ken and I find ourselves looking at ideas for fundraisers as we come to the help of our friend.
We've already had several classmates, teammates and friends offer support, which doesn't surprise me. Gulf Breeze, like Laurel Hill, is a small, closely knit community, and that is especially true for those of us who grew up in the 1970s when our town and school were still young.
But one doesn't have to be from Laurel Hill, Gulf Breeze, Baker or Crestview to appreciate the community and team's value. I'd dare say there are countless Katie Free and Mort Deer stories being written across this country. And in many cases, teammates are reaching out to pick their friend up.
One of the first things most athletes learn is it's not about me; it's about the we that comes with being a part of a team. My success means nothing if a teammate fails.
There is something about being on a team in the good times, and sharing the joy that comes with accomplishing something together. As the years have passed, I've realized that needing teammates and being a good teammate is as important 20, 30 or 40 years down the road, as it was those hot summer days so many years ago.
Mort Deer was a teammate and classmate that had a way of picking people up. Katie also has a way about her that puts a smile on the faces of those around her.
Yes, teammates do pick each other up and lend a helping hand.

From the University of Alabama Athletics Department:
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – A 2-1 week out of conference play helped Alabama Softball maintain its top 10 ranking in the Week 11 polls, coming it at No. 7 in both the USA Today/NFCA poll and ESPN.com/USA Softball Poll.
Alabama remains at No 7 for the second-straight week in the USA Today/NFCA poll. Oregon remains the unanimous No. 1 pick with UCLA at No. 2. Florida jumped two spots to No. 3 thanks to a road sweep against Texas A&M, while Michigan dropped one spot to No. 4. Florida State jumped all the way from No. 9 to No. 6 this week, while a series loss for Tennessee dropped them down to No. 8 this week.
The Tide fell one spot in the latest ESPN.com/USA Softball poll, from No. 6 last week to No. 7 this week. The top three is unchanged from last week, with Oregon as a unanimous No. 1 backed up by UCLA and Michigan. Thanks to a series loss against Mississippi State, Tennessee fell from No. 4 last week to No. 8 this week as Arizona State and Florida round out the top five.
Yet again, the SEC boasts the most top-25 teams of any conference as eight SEC teams are ranked in both polls: Florida (3/5), Alabama (7/7), Tennessee (8/8), Kentucky (9/10), Georgia (13/18), Missouri (15/17), Auburn (22/22) and Texas A&M (23/23). LSU is ranked No. 24 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll but is only receiving votes in the USA Today/NFCA poll. Mississippi State is receiving votes in both polls.
Alabama fell one spot in the latest NCAA RPI rankings, coming in at No. 2 behind the Florida Gators. Georgia is ranked No. 3 followed by UCLA and Oregon.
This week, Alabama plays its final non-conference game on Tuesday in Hattiesburg, Miss., against Southern Miss (22-24) at 6 p.m. CT. This weekend, Alabama hosts its final series of the regular season, welcoming the Georgia Bulldogs (38-9, 11-7 SEC) in for a three-game series starting on Thursday, April 24 at 7 p.m. CT on ESPN.

If you're anything like me your refrigerator is full of fresh corn right now. So full that you may have to designate an entire shelf to it. Who can resist it's sweet and succulent lure, not to mention rock bottom prices?!
Fresh, in-season corn can be eaten raw. It needs…nothing! And it doesn't take much to dress it up a little. For this recipe fresh sage leaves are pan-fried in butter until crispy. If you never had sage chips before you're in for a real treat. Be sure to taste test them.
Corn is cut from their cobs and sauteed in butter with the crispy, salty sage and then drenched in lime juice to finish. Bright and zesty with citrus and earthy hits of sage running through it makes this a delicious side for a Southwestern or Tex-Mex style meal.
It will liven up burgers, meatloaf, chicken, salads and even barbecue pork chops! I ate it spooned over chili. Talk about crazy good.
- In a large skillet fry the Sage leaves in at least a tablespoon or even two of butter over medium-low heat until crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel.
- Add the corn kernels along with more butter and saute for 5 minutes, mixing often to evenly cook. Chop the sage leaves and mix them in. Cook corn to desired tenderness. Turn off heat.
- Mix in lime juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Categories: Estate Planning/Elder Law
Instructor(s) Collins, Susan
For Spring 2014, TNE-II has been split into two modules, for one credit each. Marital Property is one of those modules. (The other module is Estate and Gift Tax; students may enroll in either or both modules.)
The one credit Marital Property module will offer an overview, introducing the student to Wis. Stats. Chapter 766. The only prerequisite for the course is Trusts and Estates I (whether taken for two or three credits); no other exposure to marital property will be assumed.
Topics that will be covered include: classification of property under Chapter 766; management and control of marital property, access to and satisfaction of credit obligations; relationship between divorce law and marital property classification; spousal rights at death; marital property agreements; and ethical concerns regarding dual representation of spouses.
The Marital Property module will be offered during the second half of the semester, March 11 - April 29, on Tuesdays from 3:30 - 5:30 pm.
Students who have taken TNE-II are not eligible to take this course, since it covers the same material.

Brian Jones to be Awarded 2011 Robert A. Millikan Medal
College Park, Maryland, United States, March 31, 2011—The American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT) announced today that Brian Jones is the 2011 recipient of the Robert A. Millikan Medal. This award recognizes educators who have made notable and creative contributions to the teaching of physics. It will be presented during the AAPT Summer Meeting in Omaha, Nebraska.
Jones has a B.S. in Physics from Case Western Reserve University and a M.S. in Physics from Cornell University. He is best known for his work as Director of the Little Shop of Physics, an outreach program of the Colorado State University Physics Department.When he isn't traveling and teaching with the Little Shop of Physics, Jones is a Physics Instructor at CSU where he also supervises the undergraduate physics laboratories.
The heart of the Little Shop of Physics is its traveling program. Each year, the Little Shop crew visits over 40 different schools, and makes presentations to approximately 20,000 K-12 students. The key element of the Little Shop of Physics traveling program is that it is all hands-on, giving every student the chance to work with all of the experiments. Besides doing school programs, the Little Shop of Physics presents teacher workshops, hosts an annual open house, and produces a television show, Everyday Science, in cooperation with the local Poudre School District.
Regarding his selection for the 2011 Millikan Medal, Jones said, "I am quite honored to be considered in the company as the past recipients, many of who have been wonderful role models to me as I've developed as a physics educator. And I am honored to be part of such a great group of folks in the Little Shop of Physics. Everything I've done has been a true team effort, and I couldn't ask for a better team."
Jones was recognized for his work in a People Magazine profile ("Scientific Roll Model") in May, 2000, and was selected as one of the 75 physics educators to be profiled in the AAPT's 75th anniversary booklet "Celebrating 75 Years of Excellence in Enhancing the Understanding and Appreciation of Physics Through Teaching."
Additional recognition includes: A "Best Teacher" Award from the Colorado State University Alumni Association, February 2000, the Faculty Undergraduate Teaching Award, College of Natural Sciences, 1998, Colorado State University's N. Preston Davis Award for Instructional Innovation in 1998, Outstanding Science Mentor in Physics by Students as Leaders in Science, 2004-2005, and the Excellence in College Science Instruction Award, Colorado Association of Science Teachers, in 2010.
Jones is co-author of College Physics: A Strategic Approach and has co-developed hands-on science activity kits on electricity, pressure, energy, and motion. The Little Shop of Physics Website has more than 200 visitors daily and features simple physics experiments, interactive experiments and resources for K-12 teachers.
A member of AAPT for over 20 years, Brian's involvement in the organization has been extensive and varied. He has been a member of the Committee on Laboratories and an ongoing member of the Committee on Science Education for the Public. As an extension of his committee involvement, Brian has presented numerous workshops at AAPT national meetings. He is an active member of the Colorado-Wyoming section, at one time serving as president.
In his letter of nomination for Jones, former AAPT President, Chris Chiaverina said, "I can think of no individual more worthy of this recognition. His life-long passion for communicating both the content and beauty of physics to diverse audiences is exemplary; his impact on his students, his colleagues, the local, national and international physics teaching community, and the public is extraordinary. Simply stated, Brian Jones is an evangelist for physics."

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – A state board is taking up the rules for enforcing a new Arkansas law that will require voters to show photo identification before they can cast a ballot.
The state Board of Election Commissioners on Wednesday is scheduled to consider the rules for the voter ID law that legislators approved earlier this year. The law requires voters to show a photo ID at the polls.
The rules closely mirror the law the Republican-controlled Legislature approved in April when it override Democratic Gov. Mike Beebe's veto of the voter ID legislation. They're aimed at giving poll workers guidance on how to enforce the new requirements when they take effect next year.
If approved by the board, the rules must be reviewed by a legislative panel.

Still rooted between two rivers
GRAND-MÉTIS, Quebec - My maternal grandmother's siblings, all 12 of them, were terrific cooks. They grew up in the valley of the St. John River, below the notch in Maine's northern tip. They spoke French, or the Québecois version of it. Their ancestors had crossed over from the Québec countryside south of the St. Lawrence River, an area known as Bas-Saint-Laurent (loosely, "Below the St. Lawrence''). Maybe this is why the sliver of land between Maine and the St. Lawrence - a thinly settled region where tributary floodplains meet the oldest ridges of the Appalachians - has always beckoned. My husband and I used Route 132, which traces the St. Lawrence's southern shore, as the spine of a food-based driving tour between the old resort village of Grand-Métis, on the edge of the Gaspé Peninsula, and the artisans' haven of Kamouraska, two hours west of Québec City.
Reford Gardens, also known as Les Jardins de Métis (Gardens of Métis), is renowned for the flower gardens created between the 1920s and '50s by Elsie Reford, the niece of the railroad magnate who owned this summer estate. Today the property is managed by a nonprofit organization overseen by Elsie's great-grandson, Alexander Reford, who hired a talented young chef to turn the restaurant into a laboratory for flower-based cuisine. Our lunch began with a soupspoon piled with multicolored petals. A dab of jelly made from a shrub called Labrador tea melded the sweet-sour-salt flavors and turned up again in a salad of chewy whelks heaped with shaved fennel, heirloom carrots, and herbs. Sugared pansies and violas garnished the entrees (duck, halibut), and geraniums flavored the closing tart.
The restaurant and a small museum are housed in a high-ceilinged fishing lodge built in the 1880s. The grounds have goodies for the eyes, too: sculpture, a curving alley of gumdrop pines, vast river views. The property also hosts an annual garden festival and design competition, with gardens on display through early October.
On the drive to St. Flavie, the St. Lawrence flowed roadside opposite planted fields, which stretched out between farmhouses with the region's traditional up-tilting eaves. Outside the village, a cluster of pilings in the water materialized into carved figures as we grew closer. Many of the villages along this coast are artists' communities. Tourists come here to visit galleries, watch whales, and explore historic lighthouses. We climbed the 128 steps of the Pointe-au-Père lighthouse, a fluted concrete spire, and were rewarded with all-around views. This lighthouse, a Cold War-era submarine, and a small museum make up the Pointe-au-Père Historic Maritime Site. The sub can be explored with a self-guided audio tour. The museum tells the little-known story of the Empress of Ireland, an ocean liner that sank off Québec in 1914, just 14 minutes after a collision, killing more than 1,000 people.
A few miles west, Rimouski has the utilitarian look of many rural Québec towns - boxy tan brick houses, a dearth of street trees, and farms and factories cheek-by-jowl. It takes getting used to, but it's one of the differences, like the road signs in French and speed limits in kilometers, that say, this is not Connecticut. We stopped for the night in the scenic Victorian village of Le Bic, at the Auberge du Mange Grenouille (Inn of the Frog Eaters, an old slur on the French). The decor alone - Vampire Rococo? - is worth the trip: candles and gargoyles, Victorian bird cages, and gilded cupids. Lawns and gardens overlook the river. Locations like this don't require good food, so dinner was a blissful surprise - fresh, lightly sautéed foie gras preceded seared scallops and roast pork, simply prepared, every flavor distinct. Frog legs? Not on this menu.
Le Bic is the gateway to Bic National Park, a forested slice of St. Lawrence shoreline, and we took a few hours to explore it. Visitors can rent a yurt or a tent site as well as mountain bikes and kayaks, but limited time forced us to make do with a ramble along the craggy shore and a picnic of sandwiches.
Beside the road in Isle-Verte, the sharply pitched red roofs of the Marché des Trois Fumoirs (Market of Three Smokehouses) are impossible to miss. The roofs belong to three tall, narrow fumoirs, which stand like guardhouses beside the market. Inside the shop, the odors of fish and smoke - maple wood, we learned - mingled in the humid air. Cases held shrink-wrapped packages of smoked fish, from shrimp and crabs to sturgeon and salmon. Co-owner Jacqueline Ouellet, a small woman with sinewy arms, bustled around the kitchen with other workers, preparing seafood pizzas to be sold (alas) that evening.
We tasted smoked salmon and rolled on. The St. Lawrence, narrowing as the distance from the Atlantic increased, vanished, and reappeared in Cacouna, where Victorian houses clustered around a crescent bay. About 8 miles beyond, we stopped for the night in the ferry port of Rivière-du-Loup.
From Route 132 in Rivière-du-Loup, we turned inland to the village of Notre-Dame-du-Lac and the Fromagerie le Détour, a small artisanal factory. Ginette Bégin, co-owner, was arranging a tasting tray in her shop filled with cheeses, butter, and maple products. Petit and wrapped in a blue-striped apron, Bégin pointed out international award-winning selections. We sampled a Brie-like cheese brimming with butterfat, a velvety goat cheese, and the Québec favorite, a substance called curd, which looks pre-chewed and squeaks like a dog toy in your mouth. Its buttery flavor helps explain the regional obsession.
Bégin suggested a vegetarian restaurant near our next destination, in Auclair, about 25 miles east. The rustic restaurant, Simplement Bon (Simply Good), lived up to its name, with homemade dishes made from local organic ingredients: cheese pizza on focaccia, salad, and strawberry pudding.
The dirt road was a dark stripe in the roller-coaster landscape to the Domaine Acer Economuseum (Maple Economuseum), a producer of maple syrup and alcoholic beverages. (The trademarked name denotes a network of 40 agritourism businesses.) Co-owner Nathalie Decaigny led a tour of the operation that turns some sap into syrup and some into alcoholic beverages. These unique drinks are not technically wines, which are by definition made from grapes, and the owners have had to devise their own formulas. "We've been at this for only 14 years,'' Decaigny said, "and the process is as much art as science.''
In the tasting room, she introduced her four beverages: a dry sparkling (yeasty, toasty, woody), a semidry white (honey-toned, Riesling-esque), an aperitif (golden, hints of apple), and a port-like beverage (caramel, low acidity-high astringency). We left the other visitors sniffing, sipping, and murmuring contentedly.
From Auclair we backtracked to Cabano, home to an acclaimed inn and restaurant, Auberge du Chemin Faisant. Owned by chef Hugues Massey and his wife, Liette Fortin, the inn is an island of urbanity in this country village. The couple left Québec City to start this enterprise, and they seem to be having fun. An example of one of Massey's whimsical dinner courses: Trout tartare served with a cube of lychee-grapefruit gelée and a cardamom cookie, sprinkled with red rose petals. After the kitchen closed, Massey slid behind the piano and filled the room with gentle jazz.
After a three-course breakfast, we set out on the final leg of the trip, 50 miles north to the coast, then west on Route 132 to Kamouraska, a fishing village-turned-artisans' refuge. Kamouraska's shops are as likely to contain gourmet food as paintings and handmade jewelry. A bakery and a chocolaterie were just two of the stores we dawdled in. But for our last lunch, we chose a peasant meal at a fish market with picnic tables. While live lobsters bubbled in a tank, we tucked into fish soup, mopping the bowls with homemade bread. It was a meal my grandmother might have made.

Ericsson today proudly announced the winners of the 2012 Ericsson Application Awards.
This is the third consecutive year that the awards have been held. This year's theme, in cooperation with Sony Mobile, was the Networked Society. Students and small- and medium-sized enterprises were invited to submit Android applications that had been built using at least one Ericsson Labs API.
In all, 143 teams from more than 50 countries took part and a total of 242 ideas, videos and apps were submitted – twice as many as last year. Developers in Africa and China were particularly active.
Four finalist teams from China, Egypt and Kenya showcased their apps before an expert jury that later declared a winner in each of the two categories: students and companies. Each winning team received EUR 15,000 and the runners up EUR 10,000.
The winner in the company category was team MedAfrica from Kenya, with an app that seeks to improve the health of communities and regions in Africa by increasing access to health-care information and services via mobile phone.
The jury's justification was: "For the potential to bring important information to many people and give them the power and knowledge to take better care of their communities."
Team member Caroline Ngugi said: "We are really excited that MedAfrica is recognized on a global platform as being a service that can provide content in emerging markets on health."
In the student category, the winner's check went to team Clio Squad from China for their Clio Super Painter app, which enables a new style of painting and chatting on Android phones or tablets, thereby providing a new means of communication.
The jury's justification was: "This reward goes to a cute application that brings people together in a simple and intuitive way with a lot of potential for further development."
Team member Shuyuan Ma said: "It's like a dream; we never imagined that we would win the first prize."
Second place in the student category was awarded to team 4Plus from South China University of Technology. Their FriendScape app uses location-based services to provide a more friendly and attractive means of retrieving friends' recommendations, coupons, merchandize information, and so on.
Jan Färjh, Head of Ericsson Research and host of the awards, said: "Med Africa and Clio Super Painter are two excellent examples of applications in the Networked Society. We are very proud of highlighting the team's achievements.
"We want to encourage open innovation and attract developers, and get in contact with them. We want their feedback on our APIs and what is needed to get developers to use the functionality in our systems. And to get this going, we decided to start an application competition."
At the awards ceremony, Ericsson also announced that team Nabda Care from Egypt had won the special Technology for Good prize for their Health Book application. The jury's justification was: "The prize is awarded to a team that has not only met the EAA criteria, but also chose a subject that can make a difference. The Nabda Care solution uses mobile and cloud technology in a scalable solution enabling people and society access to affordable health-care services".

Coldplay's latest album was released without too much fanfare confirming their status as indie stadium monoliths. They recently played the Air Canada Centre in Toronto where they sported their new military look. It's a kind of shabby military look apparently inspired by French painter Eugène Delacroix which the band have taken to wearing as their tour uniform.
What do you think of their new look? Take our poll after the jump!

Countrywide Financial hustled to make the loans. Bank of America, once again, is picking up the bill for the damages caused — the latest buffeting since the bank's disastrous acquisition of the Calabasas high-risk lender six years ago.
A New York judge ordered Bank of America to pay nearly $1.3 billion in penalties in a civil fraud case involving a mortgage program that Countrywide had nicknamed "the hustle."
U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff noted that the program, which fast-tracked the processing of mortgage applications, had lasted for only nine months. But he said the damage inflicted was severe.
"It was, from start to finish, the vehicle for a brazen fraud by the defendants, driven by a hunger for profits and oblivious to the harms thereby visited, not just on the immediate victims but also on the financial system as a whole," he wrote.
Still, the penalty was little more than half the $2.1 billion sought by the government and a fraction of $60 billion BofA has paid in settlements related to bad home loans and toxic mortgage securities generated by Countrywide during the housing boom.
Rakoff handed down his decision in a case brought by the U.S. attorney's office in Manhattan, which said in a statement that it wished "to punish and deter the fraudulent and reckless lending activities of a financial institution leading up to the financial crisis in 2008."
After a monthlong trial, a jury decided last fall that Countrywide and one of its former executives, Rebecca Mairone, were liable for selling thousands of bad loans to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-sponsored home finance giants.
Rakoff ordered Mairone to pay $1 million. Mairone's lawyer, calling her a scapegoat, said he would appeal the order.
The lending program, called high-speed swim lane, or hustle, fast-tracked mortgage applications from August 2007 through May 2008. Shortly thereafter, Bank of America bought Countrywide, the nation's largest home lender at the time. BofA never oversaw the program and had vigorously denied wrongdoing.
The Charlotte, N.C., bank said it was considering an appeal of the case.
"We believe that this figure simply bears no relation to a limited Countrywide program that lasted several months and ended before Bank of America's acquisition of the company," it said.
In a prior settlement, Bank of America agreed in March to pay $5.8 billion to put to rest government lawsuits over toxic mortgage securities purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Most of the bonds were from Countrywide, but others were sold by the bank itself and by Wall Street giant Merrill Lynch & Co., another 2008 acquisition by BofA.
As part of that settlement, the bank agreed to repurchase some securities held by Fannie and Freddie for more than $3 billion.
The bank also has been engaged in off-and-on negotiations to settle yet more claims brought by the federal government and states' attorneys general, which people briefed on the matter have said could total $12 billion or more.
The negotiations are continuing, one of these people said Wednesday, asking not to be named because the discussions are confidential. The disagreements include how much should be paid in cash and how much credit earned through other penalties, such as assistance to struggling borrowers.
The hustle case stands out from others because it went to trial instead of settling out of court, and because the government accused an individual, not just the financial firm, in what some see as an effort to appease critics who have accused the government of going easy on prodigal banks and bankers.
One of Mairone's lawyers, Marc Mukasey, said after Rakoff's ruling that "Rebecca never intended to defraud anyone and never did defraud anyone."
"Unfortunately, more powerful people chose her as a scapegoat because they thought she was an easy target," Mukasey said. "We will fight on to clear her name."
In his ruling, Rakoff said the defense had done an able job of arguing that Mairone's superiors at her division of Countrywide also should have been accused.
"The jury itself wanted to know why these other officers were not also named as defendants," Rakoff wrote.
The evidence against higher-ups was never tested at the trial, Rakoff said, as it was not in a previous Securities and Exchange Commission lawsuit. The SEC, he noted, had settled its case against defendants, including Countrywide co-founder and Chairman Angelo Mozilo, before trial and with no admissions of culpability.
He noted, though, that Countrywide's employees had described Mairone as the "catalyst" for the hustle program.
"The fact that other, higher-level individuals arguably participated in the fraud but were, for whatever reason, not charged by the government does not significantly lessen Ms. Mairone's culpability for her leading role," Rakoff said.

Organizations and individuals within this category of AV programmers focus specifically on the software and other criteria that are so important in the control aspects of an integrated audio visual solution. The control panel(s) is the primary human interface with all the technical functions of an AV system and getting it right is critical as with any sophisticated project. Experience, careful analysis, customer preferences and processes as well as expert knowledge all need to be brought to bear in this critical phase of any AV system. Not only does the control system need to work properly and efficiently but it needs to be intuitive as well.
With today's technology it is frequently appropriate for AV programmers to design a solution that enables a room to accommodate multiple functions that will be managed by several users, and designing a single control solution that allows the users to manage those various activities seamlessly is no small challenge. The right solution can have unlimited numbers of default configurations for different uses and different users. Multiple screens can be designed within the solution depending on the use of the technology at that moment; buttons can appear and disappear, be arranged in different orders, serve different functions, change size and colour and a virtually infinite number of other possibilities. The right solution isn't just glitzy and colorful; it is foremost easy to use and reliable. Consider the services of an Independent programmer the next time you don't' have a simple installation requirement.

A scene of stomach-clenching gore confronted the special operations troops: the shredded remains of a suicide bomber, scattered around the checkpoint.
But the blood and body are fake, like the Hollywood-style explosion that began a classroom exercise designed to teach these students to look past the grisly mess for the evidence that could lead to those who built the bomb.
Fort Bragg's Special Warfare Center shows how the U.S. has turned hunting terror networks into half-science, half-art-form since the al-Qaida attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Forging lessons painfully learned in the decade since into a formal curriculum, the training is intended to help elite military units track militants across international boundaries and work alongside sometimes competing U.S. agencies.
The coursework is similar to the CIA's legendary spycraft training center called The Farm, and is at the brainchild of Green Beret Maj. Gen. Bennet Sacolick, a veteran of elite special operations units, and a long stint on loan to the CIA.
Among the students at the CIA-approved Fort Bragg course are U.S. Army Green Berets, Navy SEALs and Marine Corps special operators. As in the Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden, everything from computers to fingerprints can be retrieved from a raid site and quickly analyzed. In some cases the analysis is so fast it can lead to several new targets in a single night.
The school is also an illustration of how special operations and intelligence forces have reached an easier coexistence, after early clashes where CIA officers accused the military operators of ineptly trying to run their own spy rings overseas without State Department or CIA knowledge.
"As my guys go to Afghanistan, and interface with CIA base and station chiefs, they can do it with more credibility than in the past," Sacolick told The Associated Press in a rare interview.
While many in the public may not be aware that the military is allowed to gather information, and even run its own spy networks, special operations forces have been authorized to do just that since the disastrous Desert One raid meant to rescue the U.S. hostages held in Iran in 1979. The raid went awry because of a helicopter crash, not an intelligence foul-up. But before the raid, military planners had been frustrated that CIA employees working inside the country were unable to provide them the tactical intelligence needed to insert a covert force _ even basic information like which way the streets ran outside the embassy.
That's why almost a third of every class at the CIA's Farm has been military, said a former senior intelligence official.
The Fort Bragg school means special operators can now get much of that CIA-style training at their home facility.
Sacolick said he was shocked at how piecemeal intelligence gathering and sharing was up until a couple years ago. Special operations units would know their area, but had no established way to pass it on, he said, nor any means for reaching out to the CIA to fill in information gaps.
"The CIA will satisfy any information requirement we have," the agency veteran said. "All we have to do is ask the right person. So that's what we are creating," among the special operations teams training at Fort Bragg, Sacolick said, pointing out troops who "have the vocabulary, have the contacts, know the questions to ask, and who to ask."
The CIA also helped Sacolick design the course to teach special operators the spy-related tradecraft they need for the counterterror fight outside known war zones, such as in Somalia or Southeast Asia. They learn skills like how to evade surveillance by terrorists, or a target country's intelligence service.
The elite teams' piecemeal training in those areas, often done previously by contractors rather than at the agency's Farm, was part of what caused the near-revolt of CIA station chiefs just after Sept. 11, when the Pentagon sent scores of such troops overseas. With their short haircuts, obvious military bearing, and uneven training in tradecraft, they caused more than a few uncomfortable incidents for U.S. ambassadors and CIA chiefs, who were sometimes not even told they were there.
That led to congressional alarm and a clash among the Pentagon, the spies and the diplomats over who should be able to operate where.
The White House eventually created an information exchange to allow elite military troops to gather intelligence, while keeping State and the CIA in the loop.
To make sure spy did not stumble over spy, the Pentagon's top intelligence official, Stephen Cambone, and the CIA's then-top clandestine representative, Jose Rodriguez, created a mechanism that exists to this day, to let each network know who was working for whom.
The next step was to find some common ground among those competing tribes of intelligence and military operators _ a step embraced by now-retired Gen. Stanley McChrystal. Then heading the military's Joint Special Operations Command, McChrystal embraced the "hostage swap" of JSOC troops and CIA officers, deploying them to each other's command centers and forcing collaboration through proximity.
But he upgraded the practice, sending his best people, instead of following the unwritten custom of sending one's least-valuable employee to get them out of the home office.
McChrystal used to lecture his people, Sacolick among them, to forge their own networks of one-on-one relationships in other agencies to counter the enemy network.
That's how Sacolick ended up at the CIA, and why he patterned his school on lessons the agency helped teach him.
The idea is to pass on the skills learned in the war zones of Iraq and Afghanistan, where special operators have had more intelligence back-up and logistical support from the regular military than they will in the remote places where they usually operate, Sacolick said.
"I need to prepare a 12-man team to go anywhere on this planet," he said. "They need to be every bit as good as they are in Afghanistan, in the middle of Africa somewhere," or wherever the next conflict takes them.

UC Irvine has offered a resounding answer to critics who wondered why a team that had lost eight of its last nine regular-season games was included in the NCAA baseball playoffs.
The Anteaters knocked off Oregon State, the top-seeded team in the 64-team tournament, on the Beavers' home field.
Irvine defeated Oregon State, 4-2, in the decisive game of the Corvallis Regional late Monday night. The Anteaters routed the Beavers, 14-3, earlier in the regional, but Oregon State forced a deciding final game by shutting out Irvine, 4-0, on Sunday.
Next up for the Anteaters is Oklahoma State, which swept through a regional on its home field, defeating Binghamton, 8-0, and Cal State Fullerton, 13-7 and 6-4.
Irvine (38-23) and Oklahoma State (48-16) will open their best-of-three Super Regional on Friday at 6:30 p.m. PDT in Stillwater, Okla.
Pepperdine (42-16), the only other Southland team still alive, opens a Super Regional series against Texas Christian (45-15) on Saturday at 1 p.m. PDT in Fort Worth.
"Coaches ask two things of their teams — to give the full max of what they have and to do the things we train and practice so much for," Irvine Coach Mike Gillespie told reporters after Irvine's regional-clinching win. "If we were asked if we did those things, I'd have to say we did."
The Anteaters used two starters on short rest to shut down the Pac-12 Conference champion Beavers. Andrew Morales, pitching on two days of rest after starting Irvine's regional opener Friday, pitched 41/3 innings and limited Oregon State to three hits and one run.
The save went to left-hander Elliot Surrey, making his first relief appearance this season after pitching seven strong innings against Oregon State on Saturday. Surrey gave up a hit and a walk in the ninth inning, but then induced a game-ending double play.
Pepperdine advanced by defeating Arizona State, 3-2, and Big West Conference champion Cal Poly, 2-1 and 10-6, on the Mustangs' home field. The Waves will be facing one of college baseball's best pitching staffs in Texas Christian. The Horned Frogs have given up one run or less in 32 of 60 games.

REYNOLDSBURG, Ohio (AP) -- The state fire marshal is urging Ohioans to take safety precautions while grilling outdoors during Memorial Day weekend and throughout the summer.
Fire Marshal Larry Flowers says grills led to 130 fires and three reported injuries in the state last year.
He says propane and charcoal grills should be used outdoors and away from railings, eaves and overhanging branches. He recommends that people wear fitted clothing while grilling and ensure children are supervised and kept away from grills.
He suggests that users of gas grills check the connection between their propane tanks and the fuel lines before starting.
He also says lighter fluid should never be added to an existing fire and charcoal coals shouldn't be disposed of until they have cooled.

The dreams of three Doncaster dancers look set to come true after they were chosen to appear in an England Youth Ballet production of The Nutcracker.
Sisters Amy Jones, aged 10, and Lucy Jones, 12, along with Lucy McMahon, 15, had to beat competition from more than 250 other youngsters at an audition to win their roles in the production, which visits the Theatre Royal in Nottingham from July 25 to 26.
Lucy Jones, of Balby, has been given the role of Snowflake, while sister Amy will play a Chinese dancer.
Scawsby dancer Lucy McMahon has won the role of Madam Bonbon.
British principal artist, Oliver Speers, said the Doncaster dancers 'have good technique and great energy'.

For me, 2012 was a bad year. Between a host of medical issues (brutal chest cough that led to pulled muscles, to appendicitis, to strep throat, a couple nasty colds-cum-killer flus, and a minor outpatient surgery), ridiculous amounts of stress, the ever-present struggle of being a parent to young children, a general malaise, and an unfulfilled burning need to travel, it's truly a wonder I got out of bed in the morning.
So it wasn't with any reservation that 2012 walked out of my life on Monday night, yet it still managed to leave me rather depressed. Sadly, 2013 woke me up looking already a lot like 2012, so I'm not sure if I'm able to look at this new year with much hope yet. Instead, I suppose I shall have to try harder to make things work more my way.
This not to say that I "didn't like" 2012. It's hard not to like an entire year in one's life, especially one that brings so many new things to learn and experience. I just wish it hadn't been so darned painful…

New bus route connects UNH with Rochester

(JOHN QUINN PHOTO)
DURHAM - After four years of planning, a new Wildcat Transit bus route will open up new doors for students, staff and residents along the Route 125 corridor from Rochester to the University of New Hampshire.
Officials from the Durham campus, the city of Rochester and the state commemorated the start of the route by going on a bus trip - the second of the day - before holding a short ceremony at the shop outside Thompson Hall.
Kenneth Ortmann, Rochester's planning and development director, said officials have been working on this route for several years, but he was most delighted to see "11 real passengers" who took advantage of the first bus trip.
Ortmann and his wife, Martha, who teaches at UNH, were both inspired by the possibilities both on an off campus.
"It will be good for the faculty, it will be good for students, it will be good for Rochester," Ortmann said, adding the Rochester area offers a variety of activities and far less expensive housing than other communities to the south.
UNH Transportation Director Dirk Timmons expects more students and staff to take advantage of the service once word spreads of the option. He said one student who took the bus Monday expected to save $50 a week on gas.
To promote the new route, university officials sent out emails to 987 students and staff, according to David May, associate vice president for business affairs at UNH. He added the route allows students on campus to visit the Market Basket plaza in Lee, Calef's Country Store in Barrington and stores in Rochester.
"Home Depot really stepped up for us," May said.
Timmons said there is already an established park-and-ride lot at the intersection of Routes 9 and 125 in Barrington, but the state plans to build new lots near Lowes in Rochester and across the road from the Lee shopping center.
UNH's Transportation Manager Beverly Craig said the university used a three-year federal grant to create the new route and help purchase the necessary buses, which run on compressed natural gas. She added UNH had to pay for 20 percent in matching funds as part of the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality grant, which provided about $1 million for the project.
During weekdays - excluding UNH holidays and shutdowns - the new route has two early morning buses which are scheduled to leave McConnell Hall at 5:40 and 6:40 a.m., arrive at the Rochester Home Depot at 6:01 and 7:16 a.m. and return to various locations on campus by 6:50 and 7:50 a.m.
The bus also leaves UNH at 10:45 a.m. and 12:05 p.m., 3:35 p.m., 4:35 p.m. and 6:05 p.m. The last bus returns to campus at 7:19 p.m., according to the schedule which is available online.
Students, faculty and staff with a valid UNH identification card can ride for free. Children under 5 also can ride for free. Members of the public must pay $1.50 per ride and residents 65 and older are eligible for half-price fares with proper identification.
Additionally, single ride and monthly passes from COAST are accepted on all Wildcat Transit routes. For more information, visit

Rough Summer in the City: Recent Rape Cases and the NYC Rape Shield Law
The dropping of charges against Dominique Strauss-Kahn marks the end to a case that has amounted to little more than a character assassination of a rape complainant who has endured a litany of shame-driven media accusations
This week, the public humiliation of Nafissatou Diallo that has been the "DSK Rape Case" has come to a close, as all charges against Dominique Strauss-Kahn have been dropped. This motion marks the end to a case that has amounted to little more than a character assassination of a rape complainant who has endured a litany of shame-driven media accusations, including but by no means limited to the Post's declaration that she "wasn't just a girl working a hotel – she was a working girl." This unsubstantiated claim of her sex worker status, in addition to problematic framings of her race, immigrant status and background, has been used in the media to reinforce the idea that she is not a credible witness and therefore unworthy of having her rape charges validated in a court of law.
It's been a rough summer for rape cases going through the DA's office in New York City, with no lack of victim-blaming happening all around. It's been mere months since two NYC police officers were acquitted of raping a women in her East Village apartment after a call for their assistance at the same location. Since the victim was drunk, though, it wasn't difficult to see how she would become the one on trial. In fact, there was enough victim-blaming to acquit two men who were caught entering the woman's apartment on outside surveillance tapes not once, not twice, but three times. Enough victim-blaming to acquit a man who admitted to lying in bed with the victim while she was wearing only a bra and passed out drunk. Enough victim-blaming to have one of the officers, Officer Moreno, publicly declare post-acquittal that the results of the case "were a lesson and a win." A lesson and a win, indeed.
How rape cases can play out in our criminal justice system, as seen this summer in NYC alone, is a lesson to every person that is socially vulnerable to the effects of a rape culture, and that's a whole lot of people. If you have been raped, it does matter how you got there. It matters what your race is, what your immigration status is and how you've made a living. It matters a lot. For some rape victims, just being able to report the crime without shaming scrutiny is not a possibility. In the case of sex workers, for instance, sometimes the mere admission that they are sex workers leads to open refusal to document a rape. As one member of the Sex Workers Outreach Project explained:
I was taken very seriously until it came out that I was involved in sex work, that this man was going to get me work, and that I showed him my body. At that point, the cops started acting as though I had been dishonest for not revealing this sooner and started basically interrogating me. It was incredibly upsetting. One of the police officers actually said to me, "What makes it okay Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, but not Thursday?" I was not arrested, but I feared arrest, having heard of cops doing that. I was relieved just to leave the precinct, and needless to say nothing came of my complaint. And I was reminded of the treatment I had received when I discovered that he was later arrested in California as a sex offender. Presumably he raped someone with a little more social cachet.

Sadly, it is not just the acts of a few that affect how the system treats rape complainants. There are also policies in place that directly affect how a sex worker is treated in the eyes of the court in regard to sexual assault cases. For instance, in the New York City Rape Shield Law, a criminal procedure code that provides that "evidence of a victim's sexual conduct shall not be admissible" in a rape case, there is a noted exception to the code. New York is one state that permits the victim's status as a convicted prostitute to be admitted into evidence if the conviction occurred within three years of the sexual offense. In the past, this practice has been defended on the grounds that such information speaks to the credibility of the rape complainant "as a witness" and somehow suggests that the complainant, being a sex worker, may have consented. In many ways, this practice being upheld represents how prostitution (and indeed, sex work in general) is still considered an immoral act and treated in the eyes of the law as representative of a person's defective character.
In the aftermath of the Dominique Strauss-Kahn dismissal and the recent acquittal of two police officers accused of rape, both cases which had a great deal to do with vilifying the complainant rather than the defendant, we must recognize that the rights of rape victims are tied up directly with how we frame rape victims in general, both in the media and in public policy. We must also be cognizant of the notion that there is a hierarchy of victimhood and that issues of race, class and status go into making up that hierarchy. Laws like NYC's Rape Shield Law uphold the notion that our courts are the arbiters of sexual morality. Likewise, a court system whose decisions are in any way shaped by a rape victim being a sex worker (whether a valid claim or not) cannot be held to treat any complainant with a reasonable level of dignity. All in all, it's a real wonder how any of us could withstand the scrutiny of such a system of judgment.

Alumnus shares NASA experiences
Alumnus James Hand '60 returned to Washington College in March 2012 to talk about his decade of work with NASA's Project Apollo.
Hand's presentation addressed many aspects of the Apollo space missions, with a particular focus on the first manned lunar landing of July 1969. As a NASA scientist working first at Kollsman Instrument Corporation in New York, and then at the MIT/Instrumentation Laboratory in Cambridge, Mass., Hand helped develop guidance, navigation, and control systems for the Apollo Command and Lunar Modules. He participated in the first lunar landing mission as part of the engineering support center at Johnson Space Center in Houston.
Along with discussing his own experiences and contributions to the Project, Hand spoke about President John F. Kennedy's vision for America's space program, the astronauts and other key contributors, technology, and the importance of that era's legacy for today. The talk was accompanied by a slide show and video of the Apollo mission launch.
Before the talk, guests had the opportunity to look through a large collection of Hand's Apollo memorabilia and chat with him about what was displayed. The items included documents containing the signatures of thousands of NASA employees, including Hand, that were carried to the moon on the first lunar landing mission.

CAG Group Buy Hosting FAQ
Q: I see all of these CAGs hosting group buys for people. What's that all about?
A: It's a way for CAGs to help each other get the best deal. One person will buy the bundle during the first week, then they will buy four gift copies at the highest tier during Happy Hour. This person is referred to as the host. They then try to sell these to participants for a fraction of the price of buying the "beat the average" bundle individually, plus some extra to distribute the cost of the initial bundle purchase in the first week. The host gains money back, and the participants get the full bundle for a fourth of the cost. Everyone wins.
Q: How do I host one?
A: To host a CAG group buy, you must first purchase the Indie Gala full BTA (beat the average) bundle in the first week (this has been changed since the previous bundles). This will allow you to purchase four additional bundles for the price of one during a Happy Hour, as stated in the Happy Hour post above. Now, it does matter how much you initially spend, as you must purchase the full bundle in order to purchase full bundle four-packs during Happy Hour. Then, once Happy Hour starts, you buy a gift copy for the current "beat the average" price, which will be listed on the Indie Gala page. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK "IS IT A GIFT" TO GET FOUR GIFT COPIES.
Q: It's asking me for multiple e-mail addresses. What do I do?
A: Just skip that part. The links to the gifts will be added to your account page (which is another reason why you must always use the same e-mail address when ordering from Indie Gala). Most hosts will send out the gift URLs to their participants in a PM.
Q: Is it hard to do?
A: No, it's very quick and easy. Just keep track of which gift URLs you have sent to which people, and you will be fine.

This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2013, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
The NCAA Tournament can mean more to the participating players than exhilarating wins and crushing defeats.
It can mean money.
Lots and lots of money.
More money than most of us will make in our lifetime.
While NBA scouting is sophisticated enough that no prospect slips completely under the radar, those who perform well in the tournament can quickly improve their position in the draft.
Players know it, too.
At a news conference this week, Marshall Henderson of Ole Miss said, "I'm trying to get paid here soon because I'm tired of doing all this stuff for free. And this is where you make your money, the NCAA Tournament."
Those doing the drafting love to see how players with the NBA-caliber physical skills do against other top players in the most pressurized situations of their young career.
If players excel, scouts notice.
If they don't respond, scouts also notice.
Consider the Jazz's Gordon Hayward, who played at Butler. He led the Bulldogs to the 2010 championship game and was eventually drafted by Utah.
Going into the tournament, Hayward was considered a late first-round pick.
Some questioned his physical strength. Some worried how he would find his shot in the NBA. Others wondered if the level of competition in the Horizon League had prepared him for a jump to the next level.
Hayward answered all those questions during Butler's magical run in the tournament.
In the opening rounds, he scored 13 points in a 77-59 win over UTEP. Then, his steal in the final seconds preserved a 54-52 victory over Murray State.
Butler advanced to the Sweet 16, where Hayward's stock continued to rise.
He scored 17 points during a 63-59 victory over Syracuse and its projected lottery pick, Wesley Johnson. Next, he scored with 22 points in a 63-56 win over Kansas State that put the Bulldogs in the Final Four.
"Just great times," Hayward recalled. "We played and beat two really good teams [in Salt Lake]. Syracuse was probably the most talented team in that tournament. And of course, Kansas State was really good as well. So it was fun. Just a lot of fun."
Actually, it was more than fun.
It was business, too.
In the eyes of NBA talent scouts, Hayward was rocketing up the list of first-round draft prospects.
"I went back to our people," one personnel-type said, "and told them, 'I may be crazy, but I think he's better than Wesley Johnson.' "
You know the rest of the story.
Butler reached the title game, where Hayward's half-court shot at the buzzer bounced off the rim, and Duke won the national championship.
The Jazz ended up using the No. 9 pick in the draft on Hayward, whose $15 million rookie contract is worth about twice as much as those belonging to players picked in the mid-20s.
Talk about March Madne$$. NBA • four-point play
Knicks miss Chandler
I picked the Knicks to win the Atlantic Division and threaten Miami in the East. I don't know if they can beat the Heat, but they don't have any shot unless Tyson Chandler returns 100 percent from a neck injury. "He takes a lot of pride kind of like Kevin Garnett in his defense," said Utah's Al Jefferson. "He's just a very tough, defensive-minded guy."
Koufos blossoms in Denver
Ex-Jazz first-rounder Kosta Koufos is emerging in Denver. Only 24 but already in his fifth season, he's the starting center for the streaking Nuggets. Koufos averages 6.9 points and 5.4 rebounds in 22.6 minutes all career highs. "He's getting better every week. He's smart and solid," coach George Karl told the Denver Post. "It's fun watching him get better every week."
Nuggets own streak
With the Jazz struggling and college basketball taking center stage in Utah this week, perhaps you didn't notice the Nuggets won their 14th straight game with a 101-100 victory over Philadelphia. Denver trailed by eight with less than two minutes left. "It was crazy. To be honest, I didn't think we had any chance of winning," said Corey Brewer, who scored 29 points.
Corbin: ignore criticism
As the Jazz have struggled, criticism of coach Tyrone Corbin and the players has mounted. According to Randy Foye, Corbin told his the players to ignore it: "He says, 'I'll handle it.' But I really don't read the newspapers or watch sports." Why? "When you're winning," Foye said, "everybody loves you. When you're struggling, they try to beat you down. It comes with the territory."
