BOOK REVIEW Governing Middle-earth
BOOK REVIEW A land of contrasts
Writing recently in Quadrant Online, Alan Moran from the Australian Environment Foundation (not to be confused with the Australian Conservation Foundation), pointed out that agricultural production in the Murray-Darling Basin, which not long ago accounted for some 40 per cent of total agricultural production in Australia, is now under threat. A steep decline in the availability of water for irrigation has led to a concomitant decline in agricultural output.
The decline in water availability has nothing to do with a real shortage of water, but is purely the result of deliberate changes in policy. When the environmentalist lobby first campaigned for higher environmental flows in the Murray system, the main reason given was increasing salinity, particularly in the lower Murray and in Lake Alexandrina.
Later, though, when climate change came to dominate environmentalist thinking, the salinity issue was largely forgotten and the call for reducing irrigation was now based solely on the premise that the climate in the catchment had changed irrevocably and that lower rainfall was to be the norm.
This belief was given a good deal of credence because of the so-called "Millennium Drought" (1997–2007). But, of course, the drought eventually broke, as all droughts do, and huge flows of water proceeded down the system.
Now, the uncertain nature of annual rainfall in Australia has been known for a very long time. The early European settlers were to learn of the vagaries of climate the hard way, and many walked off their farms. Indeed, whole settlements were abandoned. Likewise, the tendency to read long droughts as "the new normal" has a long history. Many readers of News Weekly will remember John O'Brien's Said Hanrahan – a poem that marvellously captures the innate tendency in all of us to "think the worst".
But it is not just the uncertain nature of rainfall that commands the attention of doomsayers. Over the recent holiday season, there were a number of media reports in which dire predictions were made concerning the future health of many other areas of the natural world. When news is short (as it is when Parliament is in recess), there are always "fall-back" stories – the crown-of-thorns starfish, coral bleaching, disease in wombats and koalas, and so on.
A few weeks ago, several media outlets ran a story on the "plight" of kangaroos in suburban fringe areas. The story was that, as the urban sprawl grew out at an ever-increasing rate, kangaroos were being driven from their old feeding areas and being forced into the suburbs in search of food.
In fact, quite the opposite has happened. As more and more farming land on the city outskirts is being taken over by developers, cultivation or sheep and cattle grazing on this land has ceased. The kangaroos (and rabbits too, in some areas) have moved in to take advantage of this situation. There are thousands of kangaroos today living in areas where they were completely absent 50 years ago.
The nub of the problem with popular environmentalism is its inability to differentiate between wildlife conservation and preservation. The former deals with populations; the latter with individuals. In proper wildlife management, the fate of individuals is not what matters; it is the fate of the species (or local race in some instances) as a whole. This usually requires a perspective over long time periods.
As a former biologist, I have seen huge long-term fluctuations in local populations of many different species in my own lifetime. These include brush-tailed possums, koalas, and many bird species. I am sure many older News Weekly readers from rural Australia could add to the list.
It is interesting, too, that the media reports always focus on the negative side. When I was a boy, our farming district supported huge flocks of introduced nuisance birds, especially sparrows and starlings. Rabbits caused a huge amount of damage and even European hares were in high enough numbers to create problems. Today, while those species still exist in the district, their numbers are small and they cause little trouble. No one reports on this.
The problem with popular environmentalism is compounded by another factor, which I might dub "the fallacy of balance". In the minds of many people, nature left to itself (that is, without the "destructive" human presence) will produce a beautifully balanced ecosystem where every species flourishes, albeit in a competitive environment. This might also be called "the great wilderness myth" because it supposes that only "wilderness areas" can achieve the sort of balance that they have in mind. None of this is true. Ecosystems are dynamic entities and they change all the time. Some of these changes are almost certainly irreversible.
If we now return to the Murray-Darling Basin and the subject of water flows, the nub of the problem becomes clearer. Environmentalists look at the so-called "healthy" rivers (medium water flows, lots of wildlife, low salinity, etc.), which are very largely the result of human-regulated flows, and suppose this to be the "proper" state of the system. But there is no proper state. Cycles of droughts and floods have been in operation for tens of thousands of years.
In severe droughts, the Murray was historically reduced to a gutter and the very reason we have not seen such a dramatic spectacle in the last hundred years or so is entirely due to human modification of the system by way of dams and locks. A return to the "natural" and pre-European state of the Murray-Darling system would see so-called "environmental problems" on a much larger scale. We could, for instance, expect huge rises in salinity at Lake Alexandrina, since there would be no barrages to prevent influx of seawater. Further up the system we might see massive declines in aquatic life and of those species relying on it.
It has been the provision of water for agriculture that has moderated the effects of droughts and floods in the Murray-Darling Basin, but today that uncomfortable truth is nearly always overlooked.
The Basin is not only our major food bowl, but also a source of that income needed to maintain the water regulation system and thus to prevent extremes of environmental damage via floods and droughts. A healthy system of irrigated agriculture is not just economically and socially sound but environmentally sound as well.
RURAL AFFAIRSWater woes along the Goulburn
Sharman Stone, the federal Member of Parliament for Murray, in the first week of February called in Parliament for a royal commission into the project to shut down half the Goulburn-Murray irrigation system.
Sharman Stone MP
She said that the Victorian government had already accepted $1 billion to take away the infrastructure of the biggest irrigation system in Australia.
Commenting later, Dr Stone said of the irrigation system affected: "The system that grows your food and your fibre, you dairy products, your fruit."
She said that false savings were being reported and that a midterm review of the project had recommended it be reset.
"You have a project here with a secret business case: it is not available to the public." Dr Stone said her requests for information via Freedom of Information had been rejected three times.
"$1 billion of taxpayers' money to push in channels to take away half of a perfectly functioning good system," she said.
"To take another 204 gigalitres out of those systems away from irrigators, to put down the Commonwealth Environmental Water Holder system.
"We love the environment. Farmers love the environment. But this is nothing to do with environmental water.
"The first stage of this project was abolished by the Victorian Ombudsman because there was insider trading, no probity checking. The procurement protocols of the Victorian government were not being adhered to."
Since 1995 to date, the Goulburn-Murray Irrigation District has lost access to 640 gigalitres of water, down from 1600 gigalitres in 1995–96 to below 1000 gigalitres in the current financial year.
Dr Stone spoke of the disaster the project had provoked in the region. "The victims are the irrigators themselves who cannot get the water they need through the system anymore. Irrigators who without compensation are being shut down as large dairy farm outfits that can feed our nation and generate exports.
"The midterm review has said, stop it. Put into the outcomes that irrigators may remain viable, that the system remain viable. That this huge, publicly owned system, as big as Tasmania, remain viable into the future. At the moment, no one cares.
"This is happening all around this area, around Shepparton. Farmers are taking their lives, dairy herds are being pushed through the abattoirs."
She insisted that not a cent more of commonwealth money be spent until irrigators, the system and the environment were put at the centre of the project.

1/5 bar
Green and Black's Chocolate Limited
Espresso (dark chocolate with coffee bar)
Good +
Weight: .7 oz. (20 g.)/3.5 oz. (100g) total bar
Calories: 110 calories in 1/5 bar or 6 squares
Cost: $
Purchased from:
Green and Black's produces a line of organic, dark chocolate bars. They've also continued to expand their Fair Trade story in 2010. The company's "Espresso" bar was the choice for today, Day #6 of Chocolate and Espresso Theme Week.
Whenever I decide to group similar chocolates into a Theme Week, I'm always interested to sample the different variations on a theme. For example, this dark bar -- unlike some chocolates included in this grouping -- was a completely smooth chocolate, and was flavored with "real coffee." That is, there were not actual textural elements in the form of crunchy coffee bits/espresso beans mixed into chocolate. However, there was a strong brewed coffee flavor to the bar. Once again, life is a chocolate banquet; there are many choices available.

It is Tuesday but it is the start of the working week. Nevertheless, there is no "Monday (or Tuesday) Morning Blog" this week. It's half term, the political stories are all about expenses and that has been done to death on this blog (though I guess we will return to it at some point) and I used my main bit of material on Sunday for what would otherwise be the Monday blog post.
So, instead, here's my roundup of the last couple of day. On Sunday I got my hands dirty on the allotment battling with the fantastic crop of weeds that insists on growing the moment my back is turned. Removing them is a vast but delicate operation that results in a gigantic compost heap and sore knees. We also went on a foraging expedition - well, a walk to Sunniside Park, looking for beech and sloes to pick in the autumn. We found what we were looking for.
And yesterday, we went along to the Northumberland County Show. Photos for this will follow some time this week. Back at the house I uploaded the video that I have sold to a publisher to their ftp site. A 3 minute video, high resolution, took up nearly a gig of memory space even when zipped. Quite how my old, creaking home pc coped I'm not sure but it took over 4 hours to upload to the site!

Nani is having great form with series of hits and every new film of his is now creating interest. 'Majnu' also made us eagerly wait for the movie.
Akkineni Nagarjuna who is in great form with series of hits in the recent past produced 'Nirmala Convent' introducing another hero Srikanth's son in the lead role.
Actor turned director Srinivas Avasarala made grand debut as director with 'Oohalu Gusa Gusalade'. The movie was highly appreciated and was a success.
What if we get the chance to rectify all the big mistakes of our life? And what if a magical wand takes us into the future to personally witness all those critical twists and turns on the road journey of life where we may swerve into the wrong lane?
After playing quite different role in Shankar's "I", Vikram donned the role of a transgender in "Inkokkadu". His getup that was revealed in the trailer evoked huge interest on the film.
Fresh from the success of "Nannaku Prematho", NTR has teamed up with hit director Koratala Siva for "Janatha Garage". Ever since the movie was announced, it has created huge interest among the film lovers and with the casting of Malayalam superstar Mohanlal the interest hiked further.
Director G Nageshwara Reddy is known for making decent comedy movie. Though he hasn't made a single movie that offered something new, he succeeded in delivering fairly entertaining movies.
Director Veerabhadram who directed comedy movies like 'Aha Na Pellanta' and 'Poolarangadu' has lost the craze with the disastrous 'Bhai' starring Nagarjuna.
Sai Dharam Tej has delivered back to back hits recently. Hence his new movie "Thikka" has generated good buzz.
Venkatesh who is in his 50's wanted to slow down and took nearly a year's gap before signing Maruthi�s 'Babu Bangaram'. So it raised curiosity that the story must be special that he did this after a brief sabbatical.
Chandrasekhar Yeleti has created a mark of his own with offbeat movies � "Aithey", "Anukokunda Oka Roju", "Saahasam".
Producer Allu Aravind's younger son Allu Sirish didn't impress anyone with his first two movies "Gouravam" and "Kotha Janta" though the latter was a hit. He took a gap and went for a makeover.
Prashanth (Vijay) is aimless in life. His father arranges a pelli choopulu for him and he agrees to meet Chitra (Ritu). On the day of the pelli choopulu, Prashanth, Chitra and a small boy are stranded in a room where they were asked to talk to each other.
Sunil who used to deliver good comedy hits is going through bad phase as his movies have become too routine. He didn't do comedy in those movies.

For once, a race too competitive to sit out
There is far more at stake in next month's special election than choosing a short-term replacement for Neil Abercrombie in the U.S. House of Representatives.
The election will be a referendum on contentious national issues facing the most politically polarized Congress in years health care, financial regulation, energy policy, job creation.
It's also the first large-scale test of an election done almost completely by mail. Half of Hawai'i's population lives in U.S. House District 1, so strong participation can make the case for using mail-in voting in other elections as a way to improve the state's dismal voter turnout.
And even though the winner will have to seek reelection in November, he or she could be with us for years to come. Local voters tend to stick with incumbents, especially those in Congress.
For the record, there are 14 candidates: C. Kaui Jochanan Amsterdam, Jim Brewer, Vinny Browne, Ed Case, Charles "Googie" Collins, Douglas Crum, Rafael Del Castillo, Charles Djou, John "Raghu" Giuffre, Colleen Hanabusa, Philmund "Phil" Lee, Karl F. Moseley, Kalaeloa Strode and Steve Tataii.
Of these, only three Case, Djou and Hanabusa have the credentials, political experience and track record of public service to have a credible claim to national political office.
They also have fundamental disagreements on issues critical to Hawai'i's future, including the Akaka bill, the Jones Act and civil unions. It's the first high-stakes, competitive horserace for this congressional seat in nearly 20 years.
Hanabusa, a Democrat who is the state Senate president, supports President Obama's initiatives, including his Afghanistan policies and his crackdown on financial institutions. She also backs the Hawai'i delegation's position on health care reform, supports the Akaka bill as currently written and defends the Jones Act. Question: Is Hanabusa a lackey of the Democratic Party and labor establishment, which have endorsed her? Or is she a strong, independent advocate for her constituents?
Case casts himself as a moderate independent Democrat, who was willing to challenge Sen. Daniel Akaka in 2006 and supports Republican health care goals of tort reform and the ability to buy and sell insurance across state lines. Along with Djou, he opposes the current version of the Akaka bill, which would grant Hawaiians self-governing powers immediately, rather than through a negotiating process. Question: Is Case an effective team player who can advance Hawai'i's interests? Or is he an outspoken outlier who alienates rather than unites?
Djou, the Republican on the Honolulu City Council, says the $800 billion federal stimulus package was far too expensive, and wants a moratorium on earmarks. Nonetheless, he vows he will always put Hawai'i's interests above party orthodoxy. Question: Does Djou's fiscal conservatism provide needed balance to Hawai'i's liberal delegation? Or should voters worry that he will be co-opted by the uncompromising House minority leader John Boehner and the anti-Obama Republicans?
The three leading candidates were invited to make their best case for election in essays they wrote for today's Focus section. Next week, we'll be posting videos and publishing transcripts of the candidates answering five questions about their positions.
It's hard to imagine better reasons to follow this election closely and for casting that mail-in ballot when it arrives at the end of April. But here are three more.
First, it's convenient: A walk to and from the mailbox. Second, this vote really matters: it's winner take all. Third, it's a vote that will, really and truly, make a difference.
What more could a conscientious citizen ask for?

Finally, after all that trouble with the Third Labourer, I moved on to the fourth.
After some playing around with colours, I decided to dye some of the fabrics I'd bought to clothe these fellows (Bahama Blue, if anyone wants to know!). It proved to me that some of the fabrics which I had expected to be cotton weren't, but that doesn't matter in this context. This project is going to be a positive riot of different materials!
You can see that I made considerable use of pins to control the fabric and keep the pleats in something resembling order, holding the fabric to be ironed, and simply leaving it while I thought about the next stage.
The stripy fabric for this fellow's shirt is the same as the stripes on the first one, overdyed with the blue, and the bold blue check was overdyed with a stony beige colour, to try to make it look a little dusty. It barely made any difference, but sometimes "barely" is good enough.
I'm very pleased with the way the folds suggest the raised leg, and the turned in sections of the tunic create some bulk for the shoulders.
And, though I say it myself, I think the folds of the shawl (if that's what it is) are an absolute triumph. They are secured in a few places, but I defy you to find the stitches, even if you zoom in on the picture, and I've avoided crushing any of folds.
The basic figures are now completed, and I'm really rather pleased with how they've turned out, but I do feel as though there may be some details missing.
More staring and thinking required…


text: for the final project in ux we are working with the nelson atkins museum. we've been assigned to help create the pieces for their summer sculpture park activation. this year it's called pops in the park, and will be on father's day. partnered with kaylie with this project, this is the draft we mocked up! we created a pops character that you take around on an adventure through the park. the map comes with a pop out of pops for which you follow the clues to take photographs with pops and tag them for a chance to win a membership to the museum. still needs a variety of refinement and perhaps a little more fun on the back and front covers. but so far so good.

Remove HidenGate (Free Guide) - Chrome, Firefox, IE, Edge
HidenGate is an adware which should supposedly provide VPN services for secure networking
HidenGate is a potentially unwanted program (PUP) which is advertised as a Virtual Private Network (VPN)[1] tool on its official website. Even though this program should ensure your network's anonymity, experts categorize it as an adware program which delivers intrusive ads rather than fulfills developers' promises. HidenGate can stealthily enter the system via bundled software and generate less than reliable pop-ups or banners which deteriorates your browsing experience.
|Advertised as
|VPN service
|Pushes e-commerce content during regular browsing sessions
|Comes as an additional component bundled with freeware or can be downloaded from the official website
|You can get Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego to get rid of HidenGate and other PUPs
At first, HidenGate adware might not start its annoying activity. Although, it is programmed to monitor users browsing activity and collect necessary information to customize controversial ads. Usually, the gathered data is non-personally identifiable and includes the following details:
- Geolocation;
- IP address;
- Browser history;
- Etc.
However, experts note that people might include sensitive information about themselves when performing online searches (e.g., Email address). Likewise, once HidenGate program accesses browser history, it also might receive personally identifiable information along with other details and lead to privacy-related issues.
The recorded data helps developers of HidenGate adware to understand its users' preferences and show ads corresponding to them. As a result, the user is more likely to click on HidenGate ads and generate pay-per-click revenue for the contrivers. Unfortunately, not all e-commerce content is malware-free.
HidenGate adware is a potentially unwanted program which is distributed via bundling technique.
Therefore, we suggest being vigilant and avoid clicking on any advertisements online. Some ads might include malicious scripts which are activated once clicked and start automatic malware installation. The best option would be to remove HidenGate from your computer for security purposes.
Note that even though HidenGate virus is merely a non-accurate term used online, this potentially unwanted program performs browser modifications which allow the program to remain persistent and make HidenGate removal more complicated.
If you want to get rid of the adware easily, you should install a professional antivirus to uninstall HidenGate automatically. For that, our top choice is Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego. Although, any similar security tools are eligible for PUPs' eliminations as well.
Ways to protect against ad-supported programs
Researchers warn that the most common way how adware programs sneak into the system is related to improper installation of third-party software. In other terms, PUPs are bundled with free software and come as optional components during the installation process. Note that the extra elements are pre-selected. Thus, users might unconsciously let adware inside their PCs.
Luckily, there is an easy step-by-step guide explaining how to protect against ad-supported programs and other PUPs:
- Download software only from verified websites;
- Do not skip EULA, Terms of Use, and Privacy Policy documents;
- Reject Quick/Recommended mode and prefer Advanced/Custom settings;
- Identify optional components during the installation steps and opt them out;
- Run an entire system scan with a security tool for an extra layer of protection.
Experts suggest to uninstall HidenGate
Even though adware-type programs are not malicious themselves, they can lead to serious dangers. Likewise, researchers[3] say that users should remove HidenGate and similar programs to protect their computers from further damage. Additionally, it would significantly improve your browsing experience as the never-ending ads would be eliminated as well.
There are two ways to complete HidenGate removal successfully — manual and automatic termination of the adware. The fastest way to uninstall HidenGate is running a full system scan with a professional security software. The list of best ones is presented below.
Although, if you have time and necessary IT knowledge you can try to get rid of HidenGate by following the manual elimination guidelines below. They will present step-by-step instructions on how to clean your system from PUPs and reset the affected browsers.

Garrit Denniston '46
Date of birth: unknown
Date of death: February 17, 1858
Age: unknown
Garrit died on February 17, 1858 in Albany, New York of a "hemorrhage of stomach." He was from Albany. (Cause of death from death register located by Kathy Franz.)
He was born in, and appointed to the Naval Academy from, New York.
From the Naval History and Heritage Command:
Midshipman, 10 March, 1840. Passed Midshipman, 11 July, 1846. Master, 1 March, 1855. Lieutenant, 14 September, 1855. Died 17 February, 1858.
From the 1986 Naval Academy Course Catalogue:
I shall be very glad when the day comes that I can leave here, for I have to get up before daylight and study until late at night. You know studying never agreed with my constitution. Midshipman Garrit V. Denniston, Class of 1846
The "Register of Commissioned and Warrant Officers of the United States Navy and Marine Corps" was published annually from 1815 through at least the 1970s; it provided rank, command or station, and occasionally billet until the beginning of World War II when command/station was no longer included. Scanned copies were reviewed and data entered from the mid-1840s through 1922, when more-frequent Navy Directories were available.
The Navy Directory was a publication that provided information on the command, billet, and rank of every active and retired naval officer. Single editions have been found online from January 1915 and March 1918, and then from three to six editions per year from 1923 through 1940; the final edition is from April 1941.
The entries in both series of documents are sometimes cryptic and confusing. They are often inconsistent, even within an edition, with the name of commands; this is especially true for aviation squadrons in the 1920s and early 1930s.
Alumni listed at the same command may or may not have had significant interactions; they could have shared a stateroom or workspace, stood many hours of watch together… or, especially at the larger commands, they might not have known each other at all. The information provides the opportunity to draw connections that are otherwise invisible, though, and gives a fuller view of the professional experiences of these alumni in Memorial Hall.

As part of the 2017 budget process, Brantford City Council approved the review of the City's Master Servicing Plan, to occur at the same time as the review of the City's Transportation Master Plan and the City's Official Plan.
The Master Servicing Plan (MSP) update will develop a comprehensive plan that will incorporate all facets of management, expansion and funding of the water, wastewater and stormwater system for the entire City, including the Boundary Expansion Lands. The study will review in detail plans to 2041 and more broad implications beyond 2041.
Specific components of the overall Master Servicing Plan include the:

Today's throwback blog is titled Potluck in Nov 2006. It seems my Instant Bullets blogs began a long time ago. Pay attention to the second emoji bullet point calling for help. It's true today. The third emoji bullet point is a good resource to meet people and make new friends. The bottom line is be social, learn how to communicate, and be confident.
O__o Today I voted in the 2006 mid-term elections. I waited one hour to vote. A couple of booths experienced technical difficulties. Before I voted, I requested the poll worker to reactivate my card to make sure the card is active while voting. I'm going to miss calls from President Bill Clinton and Clint Eastwood telling me who to vote LOL!
O__o Help, call the police. If you're in a situation where the last means of communications is writing, then write "Help, 911" or "Help, call police" on paper, cardboard, or anything. There are places where people can buy help banners. And remember when the U.S.A flag is flown upside down, it's a signal for help.
O__o Do you want an investment that costs $6.00? Purchase the "How To Be Popular: You're Never Too Young or Too Old" booklet by Abigail Van Buren aka Dear Abby.

The oil reserves discovered in the 6.6 million acres Stabroek Block located 120 miles of the Guyana coast will help to supply the world's growing energy needs. The magnitude of the discoveries made so far by US oil major ExxonMobil is significant and will have far-reaching impact on global energy supply as well as the development of the lone English-speaking South American country on the continent.
In its November 14 Edition of the Energy Factor, ExxonMobil ran some numbers to show all the things that the more than 4 billion barrels of oil that the block is estimated to hold could power. To help illustrate the scale of the discoveries, the company said the massive Guyana reserves could power any one of the following;
- Provide enough energy to power 16,878 rocket trips to the moon
- Manufacture tyres for 6 billion cars
- Fuel 477,213 fuel-efficient commercial jets
- Drive a new car around the planet 93 million times
- Meet France's petroleum needs for 7 years
The company said it is supporting local priorities in Guyana including business and employment opportunities as well as broader community programmes.
"Our activities contributed to over US$26M to Guyanese companies in the first half of 2018. More than half of the total workforce on the project is Guyanese," the company said.
Guyana poised to be world's largest oil producing country per person in 2020s
The Liza Phase 1 development will begin producing oil by early 2020 and will be closely followed by Liza Phase 2 in 2022. By 2025, ExxonMobil estimates that it could be producing as much as 750,000 barrels of oil per day from around 5 developments in the Stabroek Block, utilizing 5 floaters.
Industry analyst Wood Mackenzie sees this number rising to 1 million barrels per day at peak and has pointed out that the ramp-up in the Stabroek Block by ExxonMobil is faster than anything ever achieved in the industry.

Visual Arts meets three times a year in Adelaide.
Visual Arts goals are to:
- identify the existing specific needs for visual art in congregations and identify the talents of people which could be used to fill those needs
- encourage congregations to consider the wider use of visual arts in worship and to identify local talents, or if these are not available, provide assistance in referring suitable people

NCAA women's water polo championships: Cal, Stanford, UCLA, USC win to set up all-Pac-12 semifinals
The Pac-12's fearsome foursome of Cal, Stanford, UCLA and USC has advanced to the semifinals of the 2015 NCAA women's water polo championship hosted by Stanford University. UCLA and Cal will match wits in the first semifinal Saturday at 3:30 p.m. PT, while Stanford and USC will square off in the nightcap at 5:15 p.m.
In a match that was a tad lower-scoring than expected, Stanford defeated Princeton, 7-2, in the tournament opener Friday to move on to the semifinals for the 15th time in a row (there have only been 15 NCAA tournaments). Two-time FINA Women's Water Polo Player of the Year Maggie Steffens and Kiley Neushul each scored three goals for the defending-champion Cardinal, which scored six of its seven goals in the first half. Dani Jackovich provided the other tally for coach John Tanner's group, while Gabby Stone stopped eight Tiger shots in cage. It likely would have been a larger margin of victory if it wasn't for Princeton goalkeeper Ashleigh Johnson's 18 saves to keep the Tigers somewhat in the match. The Cardinal is looking to become the first team in NCAA women's water polo championship history to win the event in its home pool.
In other news, it looks like it has been a pretty good week for the Card thus far:

Known for punishing inferior competition, USC scored seven of the first eight goals of its first rounder against Hawaii en route to a 14-7 victory over the Rainbow Wahine. It was a historic day for senior driver Monica Vavic, the daughter of head coach Jovan Vavic, who broke the MPSF record for career goals with a rocket of a shot to make it 10-4 Trojans:
Now with 287 career goals, Monica has scored more goals than any MPSF player in history! #fighton

In all, 11 Women of Troy rattled the cage, with Vavic, Brigitta Games and Brianna Daboub each striking twice. The win sets up a semifinal match with Stanford Saturday at 5:15 p.m. PT. It tends to get interesting when the Cardinal and Trojans square off – Stanford outlasted USC in overtime earlier this season in Southern California, while USC edged Stanford in triple sudden death in the 2013 NCAA championship game, in what is the longest NCAA women's water polo championship match ever played.
Like its SoCal rival, UCLA scored seven of the first eight goals against its quarterfinal opponent as the seven-time NCAA champion Bruins defeated UC San Diego, 9-2, at Avery Aquatic Center. After junior Alys Williams gave UCLA to opening edge 27 seconds into the game, UC San Diego's Jolene Guiliana tied things up midway through the first quarter. It was all UCLA after that, however, as the Bruins rallied off seven consecutive tallies, taking a 7-1 lead into halftime and tacking on another before the Tritons found the back of the cage again. The top-ranked Bruins are on to the semis for the fifth consecutive season.
How about an #8Splash to go along with that #8Clap! @UCLAWaterPolo is off to the NCAA semifinals! pic.twitter.com/j2A9uQsejF
— Pac-12 Networks (@Pac12Networks) May 8, 2015
I can get with an #8splash. Emily Donohoe, Devin Grab and Kelsey O'Brien each scored twice for head coach Brandon Brooks and friends.
The Golden Bears outlasted a battle-tested UC Irvine, 6-5, in the final opening-round match of the day thanks to Kelly McKee's game-winner with 2:54 left in regulation. Cal, Stanford, UCLA and USC have long been ahead of the curve in women's water polo (only one other team has appeared in an NCAA title game), but UC Irvine had prepared itself well for the big stage, coming into the tournament with the toughest non-conference schedule in the nation.
Cal scored four straight after a quick UC Irvine goal to start things off, but the Anteaters responded with four in a row of their own to take a 5-4 lead midway through the third. A 5-5 game entering the final frame of regulation, Richard Corso's squad clamped down on defense and forced turnovers on the Anteaters' final three possessions to secure the victory after McKee's go-ahead cage-rattler. During the game, Hungarian sophomore Dora Antal moved up the Cal record books:
With her two goals today, Dora Antal has moved into 9th place on Cal's all-time list with 137 in her career. #CalWWPolo

KUALA LUMPUR: The Asean Business Advisory Council (Asean-BAC) Malaysia has called for the setting up of an Asean Youth Council (AYC) to help shape the future of the region.
Its chairman Tan Sri Dr Mohd Munir Majid said that Asean has a young population, with 60 per cent of its people under the age of 35 – but their involvement in policy-making decisions and on the future of the region has been limited.
He said the Asean-BAC had taken the initiative to establish the Asean Young Entrepreneurs Council (AYEC), which led to the founding of the Asean Young Entrepreneurs Association.
"However, there needs to be a more broad-based involvement of Asean youth than just in entrepreneurship, especially when it comes to the future shape, character and policies of the regional organisation," he said at a press conference today.
In calling for Asean governments, especially Malaysia, to take up the proposal, Dr Mohd Munir said an AYC would enhance youths' sense of ownership in Asean's future, which belongs to them.
At the same time, he said there is need to draft an Asean Social and Education Policy to address the challenges of digitisation of the economy.
He said such a sweeping change would affect all economies, and not all the member states of Asean are prepared.
"The impact of robotisation, the Internet of Things, use of big data and so on is going to be tremendous on employment, education, training and retraining.
"The reliance on low-cost manufacturing for growing populations is increasingly becoming a story of the past, and the displacement of employment could become severe," he said.
Dr Munir Majid added that individual state's preparation for the future is not enough, as stresses and strains in the restructuring of economies will adversely affect Asean integration and cohesion.
He called on Asean countries which are ahead of the curve to lead the way in preparing for the digital economy by preparing the policy document which will map out the region's future.
