Geology of Patagonia
TRIPS TO PATAGONIA
Patagonia is located at the southernmost tip of South America. The region includes the southern section of the Andes Mountains. To the east of this southern portion of the Andes are deserts, steppes, and grasslands. To the south are the ice fields and the climate grows colder. Patagonia has two coasts; a western one towards the Pacific Ocean and an eastern one towards the Atlantic Ocean.
The Colorado and Barrancas rivers run from the Andes to the Atlantic; these are generally considered the northern boundary of Argentine Patagonia. Tierra del Fuego, and sometimes the Falkland Islands are included as part of Patagonia. The Reloncavi Estuary is said by most geographers and historians to be the northern border of Patagonia on the Chilean side.
For centuries Patagonia was known as the end of the world. It is not hard to imagine that you are indeed standing at the end of the world as you watch glaciers recede and break apart.
ICE FIELDS
The ice field is an incredible phenomenon unique to the region. The massive ice feeds dozens of glaciers in the area. The glaciers going to the west flow into the fjords of the Patagonian channels of the Pacific Ocean. Those going to the East flow into the Patagonian lakes Viedma and Argentino, and eventually, through the rivers de la Leona and Santa Cruz, to the Atlantic Ocean.
An important part of the ice field is protected under different national parks, such as the Bernardo O'Higgins and Torres del Paine in Chile, as well as Los Glaciares in Argentina.
There are two known volcanoes under the ice field: Lautaro and Viedma. These are among the least researched volcanoes in Chile and Argentina because of how inaccessible they are.
The ice field has 28 exit glaciers. The largest two are San Quintin and San Rafael and they nearly reach sea level to the west at the Pacific Ocean. Smaller exit glaciers, like San Valentin and Nef, feed numerous rivers and glacially carved lakes to the east.
STEPPES
Patagonia is known for its steppes on the Argentine side of the region. These steppelike plains rise 330 ft in 13 terraces. The steppes are mostly bare of vegetation. Ponds or lakes of fresh and brackish water lie in the hollows of the plains. Towards the Andes animal life becomes more abundant and vegetation more luxuriant.
Patagonia is a geologist's dream. Between glaciers, steppes, and volcanoes, Patagonia offers a little bit of everything.
The Andean Volcanic Belt runs through the southwestern part of South America. It is split up into four volcanic zones. The zone in Patagonia is known as the Austral Volcanic Zone or AVZ. The AVZ arcs from south of the Patagonian Volcanic Gap to the Tierra del Fuego archipelago, totaling a distance well over 600 miles (1,000km).
It is a volcanically active area though full blown eruptions are rare. Having said that, there were two major volcanic eruptions in 2015.
On March 3, 2015 Villarica erupted at 3am, spewing a stream of lava 3,000 ft. into the air. This symmetrical volcano sits on the shores of Lake Villarica. This area is a tourist hotspot, popular for hiking in the nearby hills and surrounding forests. The week before its eruption Villarica had been acting up. Over 3,000 people were evacuated from nearby towns including locals and tourists.
A month later on April 23, 2015 Calbuco surprised locals and experts with two eruptions in just a few hours. Calbuco had been dormant for decades and this volcano caught officials off guard. Ash smothered nearby towns and a plume of large smoke and ash could be seen from miles away. Over 4,000 people were evacuated in a 12 mile radius. Officials considered this eruption to be more serious than the one from Villarica the month before.
The volcanoes of Patagonia are not usually this active. Typically the area is popular among tourists for hiking, biking, mountain climbing, and even kayaking.

AND SO IT BEGAN
A WINDING JOURNEY
WE CHANGE
WE LOOK FORWARD
The Judd & Black story begins with our namesakes, Wayne Judd and Don Black. The two men began working at Puget Sound Power and Light in Everett in the mid-1920s. Judd serviced electric appliances, while Black installed electric meters to homes. It was a time in which the power company, not a retailer, sold and serviced your household appliances. The two men even had the honor of delivering the first electric range and refrigerator seen in Snohomish County.
In 1939, the power company stopped handling appliances, and Judd's job was no more. Instead of remaining with the company in another capacity, Judd opened up his own shop and picked up the power company's appliance-related business. The following year, Black joined Judd to form the Judd & Black Electric Company.
During World War II, Judd & Black's early business focused on appliance repair, as new products weren't being built due to war efforts. By 1946, with the war over, Judd & Black sold new Westinghouse appliances. They also hired themselves an apprentice by the name of Bob Long. A WWII Navy veteran, Long spent most of his time servicing appliances and doing wiring work on homes.
In 1955, Black bought out Judd's interest in the company, but kept the name. As Long conducted household electrical work for customers, he began carrying around a new electric washing machine in the back of his truck, showing it off to interested homeowners. Although Judd & Black's appliance selling had initially taken a backseat to installing household water and heating systems, Long helped shift Judd & Black back toward appliances.
In 1962, they moved from their original location in Everett to the historic Bass Building at 3001 Hewitt Avenue which became the flagship store. The new store featured three times as much floor space, and Judd & Black soon grew to be one of Washington's largest independent appliance sales and service companies.
In 1976, after years of serving as General Manager of Judd & Black, Bob Long Sr. bought the business from Don Black. Bob's two sons, Bob Jr. and William, also were part of the business, having started by sweeping floors and washing service trucks. In 1987, Long Sr. sold the business to them. That same year, the Lynnwood location was opened. Not long after, in 1989, Judd & Black expanded again and opened the Marysville location.
In 2005, the third generation of Longs, brothers Bob III and Cory, purchased Judd & Black Appliance from their father and uncle. Eventually Bob and Cory made the decision to expand into Skagit County in 2011, when Anderson Appliance approached them about taking over their business. What they didn't know was that that would kick off a period of quick expansion. Shortly thereafter, Anaco Appliance decided to merge with us. Not long after that, Lehmann's Appliance in Bellingham approached Bob and Cory about taking over their business and in 2013 we opened up our Northern most location in the heart of Bellingham.
Sadly in September 2018, we lost our flagship store to a devastating fire. While we lost our home of 56 years, the community also lost a historic building and landmark that was older than the city of Everett. But with every loss comes opportunity and just six months later we opened a new Everett location.
Today, Tomorrow and Beyond
Today, a fourth generation is moving up the ranks. Bob Long III's son, Taylor, is store manager at our Marysville location. We hope to continue to serve Northwest Washington for decades and generations to come.

My green card doesn't expire. Can I still use it?
Recent versions of the green card include an expiration date. However, many people still have a green card with no expiration date. During the 1970's and 1980's, the U.S. government issued green cards that do not have an expiration date printed on them. Generally, you may continue to use these cards. But cards with no expiry date do carry some risks.
First, make sure you have a valid version of the card. If you are holding a card that says "I-151" or "Form I-151" in small print anywhere on the card, you have an invalid card. In 1977, the U.S. government discontinued the I-151. They replaced it with the I-551. Form I-151 and Form I-551 are simply the government's internal name for green card.
So as long as you have the I-551 version of the green card, it is still valid – even if there's no expiration date printed on it. USCIS has discussed implementing a rule requiring permanent residents to replace green cards that lack expiration dates, but they have not implemented such a rule to date.
Nonetheless, there are still several reasons to replace a green card with no expiration date.
Older green cards with no expiration dates can present significant problems for travelers. If a Customs & Border Protection (CBP) officer is unable to identify you from the old photo as the legal owner of the green card, you could be delayed until your identity is verified. For example, if the photo was taken when you were much younger, you may be difficult to recognize. In some cases the officer may give you a warning to replace the card. CBP officers have broad discretion to deny entry. Although you may not be legally obligated to replace the green card, it isn't worth the delays and expenses related with problems at the port of entry.
A green card with no expiration date could even present a problem for employers. By virtue of the card being old, it may be deteriorated or damaged. Again, a dated photograph may also make some employers uncomfortable.
Another good reason to update your green card is if you travel frequently. Global Entry kiosks require newer green cards. The GE kiosks cannot read the old format green cards.
How long does it take to renew/replace a green card?

The 10 best Kirby games to adventure through
By Heather Wald
Contributions from
GamesRadar Staff
With almost 30 years of adventures, here's our pick of the 10 best Kirby games
(Image credit: Nintendo)
The best Kirby games showcase some of the pink puffball's most memorable adventures. Over the years, we've seen so many creative and varied experiences starring the pink hero from HAL Laboratory. In fact, Kirby celebrated his 30th anniversary earlier this year, with the very first delightful platformer, Kirby's Dream Land, releasing back in 1992. Happily, the line-up of Kirby continues to demonstrate the strength of the series, with the launch of the latest adventure Kirby and the Forgotten Land find its way into our pick of the best Switch games you can play right now. The recent spin-off, Kirby's Dream Buffet, also earned a spot among our selection of the best multiplayer Switch games.
A classic Kirby Wii game has also been confirmed as one of the upcoming Switch games we can look forward to. With so many fantastic adventures over the years, picking the very best Kirby games is no small feat. But with 30 years of the inhaling hero, now's the perfect time to celebrate Kirby's legacy. So, if you're a fan of the pink puffball get ready as we take you through the 10 best Kirby games.
10. Kirby Mass Attack
Released for the Nintendo DS in 2011, Kirby Mass Attack applied the more is merrier approach to sequels by releasing an innovative puzzle platformer featuring a lot of Kirbys. In it, players help the Kirby swarm exact revenge upon the evil wizard Necrodeus by manipulating them, their enemies, and key level items using the DS's stylus and touchscreen controls.
Kirby Mass Attack accomplished two things for Nintendo. It demonstrated that Kirby's team still had the drive to try new ideas, and it offered DS fans a game that made creative use of the handheld's touchscreen tech. It isn't the strongest entry on Kirby's resume, but it was a sign that the series hadn't lost its oddball edge.
9. Kirby & The Amazing Mirror
Kirby and The Amazing Mirror cemented the Kirby series as one of Nintendo's most creative. In it, the pink puffball finds himself split into four separately colored entities and given the job of reassembling the pieces of a magic mirror to save the inhabitants of Mirror World.
In a refreshing twist on his usual side-scrolling format, Kirby and The Amazing Mirror played as a Metroidvania adventure that had players unlocking new areas with different abilities and discovering all the secrets, hidden pathways, mini-games, and bonuses within the title's nine worlds. Adding to its appeal, Kirby and The Amazing Mirror featured the ability to call Kirby's other personas via cellphone to lend their unique skills to any given situation.
8. Kirby's Dream Land 2
The success of Kirby's Adventure for the NES in 1993 earned Kirby enough gaming cred to branch out into two side projects: Kirby's Pinball Land and Kirby's Dream Course. By 1995, however, fans were itching for a return to Kirby's roots, and Nintendo delivered in spades with Kirby's Dream Land 2 for Game Boy.
Kirby's Dream Land 2 pushed the series forward with gameplay improvements, design tweaks, and some of the best 2D platforming the Game Boy had to offer. Old abilities were fine-tuned, and new allies like Rick the Hamster, Kine the Ocean Sunfish, and Coo the Owl were introduced to lend a hand. HAL Laboratory's return to Dream Land was an all-around success, launching Kirby's Dream Land 2 into the Game Boy's top seller list and securing it a top spot in Best Game Boy games lists for all eternity.
7. Kirby 64: the Crystal Shards
Kirby's debut on the Nintendo 64 didn't rock the gaming world, but it did carry the Kirby flame forward in some new and innovative ways. Though still a side-scrolling platformer at heart, Crystal Shards' 2.5D environments and the illusion of Super Mario 64-esque freedom was a refreshing change of pace. What's more, the N64's beefier processing power gave the pink puffball a fresh, modern look compared to that of his Game Boy Advanced titles.
Above the graphical improvements, Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards improved upon Kirby's traditional moves. In addition to inhaling and assuming his enemy's traits, Kirby was upgraded with the ability to combine different powers for various effects. Swallowing an electric enemy and a sword, for instance, created a lightsaber; while gobbling electricity and ice created a healing refrigerator. The combo system brought more substance to Kirby's 64-bit upgrade.
6. Kirby's Return to Dream Land
Kirby's Return to Dream Land brought the pink hero back to his roots in a delightfully colorful adventure on the Wii. It offers a 2.5D platforming game reminiscent of Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards in both visual style and gameplay mechanics. This was partly due to the fact that production on Kirby's Return to Dream Land actually began immediately after Kirby 64, but took HAL and Nintendo nearly 11 years to bang it into shape for a Wii release.
And the investment paid off. Kirby's Return to Dream Land reminded fans why they fell for the little puffball that could. Nintendo put a pause on innovating the series to put out a solid platforming adventure featuring Kirby doing what he does best: inhaling foes, spitting them out, and occasionally copying their style. New features like super abilities and drop-in cooperative multiplayer-only added to the fun. Kirby's return may have taken place on an alien planet, but it felt close to home.
5. Kirby and the Rainbow Paintbrush
Kirby and the Rainbow Paintbrush really brought the Wii U to life with its delightful claymation style offering. With gameplay reminiscent of Kirby: Canvas Curse on the DS, Rainbow Paintbrush sees you draw out Kirby's path through each stage or shield him from enemies on the Wii U touchpad. Taking the form of a little clay ball, the colorful adventure once again shows off the creativity of the series, with an eye-catching world that brings renewed life to the platforming. It really is a memorable treat.
4. Kirby's Epic Yarn
Kirby's Epic Yarn took full advantage of its unique look, incorporating the game's arts-and-crafts aesthetics into every aspect of gameplay. Items crinkled, backgrounds folded, and enemies fell apart as if they were put together by felt, string, and glue sticks. Gone were Kirby's standard moves, and in their place the ability to reshape his yarn body into whatever vehicle or device the situation demanded. It was a refreshing twist on an aging formula, with bundles of charm.
3. Kirby Super Star Ultra
1996's Kirby Super Star for SNES was an all-you-can-eat buffet of awesome, offering eight meaty Kirby games in one delicious cartridge. As the first Kirby game to introduce co-op, it was packed with sixteen games. Every one of its offerings feels like a polished, standalone entry. Whether it's spelunking in the Great Cave Offensive, rising through the ranks in Helper to Hero, or going back to basics in Spring Breeze, there's very little that feels tacked on to increase the remake's game count. Dripping with fan service, Kirby Super Star Ultra reminds us why we've grown to love Nintendo's puffball over the years.
2. Kirby: Planet Robobot
In 2016, Kirby landed on the 3DS in a memorably mechanized way. Kirby: Planet Robobot made the most of the handheld's 3D functionality to deliver a platforming adventure that played around with the depth of field by moving the pink puffball back and forth between within the levels. The generous variety of abilities on offer are also endlessly fun to play around with and copy. But what really sets Planet: Robobot apart is the introduction of the mech suit Kirby can pilot. As well as giving Kirby new powers in combat, the armor also comes into play to solve puzzles in inventive ways.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land brought the inhaling hero back for a new adventure entirely in 3D. With more open platforming, a mystery setting with visually striking stages, and a host of features, Forgotten Land really feels like a big step up for the pink puffball. Waddle Dee Town is packed with charm, offering up delightful mini-games, useful stores, a cinema, a colosseum, and more. Kirby's latest entry is a refreshing take on a series that hasn't strayed away from the side-scrolling formula, Showing off the creativity of HAL Laboratory with inventive level designs and the addition of new skills like Mouthful Mode, Forgotten Land takes Kirby to new heights. We can hardly wait to see where the series will go next.

The Biggest Upsets in Recent Rugby History and the Data Behind Them
Jordan Kingston / Author
This weekend marks six years since Japan thrust themselves into rugby folklore and announced themselves on the world stage by shocking South Africa in an outcome that only the bravest of Brave Blossom fans would have dared dream of before kick-off.
For context, this was only Japan's second ever win at the Rugby World Cup, with their sole win prior to this coming against Zimbabwe in 1991. This is despite qualifying for every single tournament, including 1995, when New Zealand steamrolled to a record tally of 145 points against them.
Given their abysmal record, the bookies can perhaps be forgiven for rating Japan as 80/1 outsiders to beat the mighty Springboks in their opening Pool B encounter.
Whilst rugby has witnessed more than its fair share of upsets over the years, it would be fair to say that none have shaken the sport to its core quite as much as the fabled 'Brighton Miracle'.
To mark the occasion which has since spawned a movie and changed Japanese rugby forevermore, we take a dive into the stats behind this game, along with a selection of other notable upsets, to make sense of the sensational.
South Africa 32 – 34 Japan
Rugby World Cup Pool Stage, September 19, 2015
There's only one place to start on this list, and that is with the inspiration for it all.
Coached by Eddie Jones – who is no stranger to success at the World Cup having led his native Australia to the final in 2003, and more recently guiding their conquerors of that year, England, to a runner-up spot in 2019 – Japan were expected to receive nothing other than a heavy defeat to kickstart their World Cup campaign.
Japan have become known for their exciting, fast-paced play through the backs, and that was fully on display in this encounter. Beating 16 defenders against a hard-hitting side such as the Springboks is no mean feat.
However, it's worth noting that in this game, Japan managed to retain 92% of their own lineouts and 100% of their scrums against a South African side famed for their excellence at set-pieces.
In addition to this, they also mustered an impressive 98% win rate at their own rucks, 3% more than South Africa, as they prevented their opponents from dominating the breakdown as many would have predicted.
This was a battle typified by the titanic performance of Japan's captain and standout performer, Michael Leitch. Completing an immense total of 17 tackles, Leitch was a constant thorn in South Africa's side in addition to his first-half try from a rolling maul.
All these facets culminated in a result that, even as the Amex Stadium erupted after Karne Hesketh's superb last gasp try, still seemed utterly unbelievable. It is one of the greatest upsets of all time.
It was one of three wins for Japan in the Pool, along with wins against Samoa and the United States. Sadly for the neutrals, that wasn't enough to see them qualify as Scotland pipped them to second place.
Despite the defeat, South Africa still qualified top of Pool B. They defeated the Welsh in the quarter-final before losing to eventual winners, New Zealand, in the semi-final.
Connacht 20–10 Leinster
PRO14 Final, May 28, 2016
Coming into this game, Connacht had failed to win a single major trophy in their 121-year existence. Leinster on the other hand, had won six in the last seven years. Therefore, many expected the all-conquering Leinster to romp to another piece of silverware at the expense of their underdog neighbours to the west, in this all-Irish clash.
Connacht had different ideas though. A gargantuan total of 31 defenders beaten lay down the foundations for a dazzling display of expansive, attacking rugby, with an impressive 10 line breaks thrown in for good measure.
Crucially, they also managed to prevent Leinster from gaining yards, completing 95% of their tackles compared to Leinster's lowly 84%. This led to Connacht gaining over a metre more per carry, on average, than their counterparts.
This dominance with the ball in hand meant that Connacht held a 17-point advantage heading into the last quarter of the game, a lead which proved insurmountable for the heavy favourites and saw the long-serving John Muldoon lift the PRO14 trophy, at last ending the drought on Ireland's west coast.
Krasny Yar 34–29 Stade Francais
European Rugby Challenge Cup Pool Stage, October 14, 2017
In a match contested by one side making their debut in European competition, and another playing their first European game since lifting the Challenge Cup five months prior, Siberian minnows Krasny Yar stunned the Parisians Stade Francais in a shocking upset.
Whilst Stade Francais excelled in possession, beating 37 defenders and making 15 clean breaks when they had the ball, Krasny successfully limited their opportunities by forcing nine turnovers and subsequently spending more time in possession themselves. This, coupled with 21 defenders beaten of their own, was enough to see them match Stade Francais' try total, with the game being decided by the teams' respective kickers. Shane Geraghty only managed to convert two of the French side's tries, opening the door for Georgian fly-half Lasha Malaghuradze to seal the game with three conversions, alongside his late penalty.
Fiji 27-30 Uruguay
2019 Rugby World Cup Pool Stage, September 25, 2019
Less than a year before this World Cup encounter, Fiji crushed Uruguay by a scoreline of 68-7 in a match that went by relatively unnoticed. However, nobody could fail to notice Uruguay tearing up the script against a Fiji side who themselves had shocked Wales at the 2007 World Cup.
Despite boasting superstars such as Leone Nakawara and Semi Radradra, Fiji were cataclysmically error-prone, conceding turnovers on 26 occasions, limiting their characteristic flair-filled approach.
Completing a monumental 181 tackles, Uruguay's commitment to the cause was on full display. This was further demonstrated by their dominance at set-pieces and the breakdown, with Uruguay retaining possession from every single one of their scrums and lineouts, along with all but a single ruck.
Fiji's misery was further compounded by sub-par kicking from the tee, nailing a miserable 17% of their kicks at goal in comparison to Uruguay's 86%. This was despite a mere 4% difference in their xGK values.
86% – Felipe Berchesi slotted 86% (6/7) of his place kicks in @RugbyUruguay's last match against Fiji, despite those kicks having an xGK value of 71%, in contrast Fiji slotted just 17% of their attempts (xGK – 67%). Pivotal.#RWC2019

France 14-19 Tonga
2011 Rugby World Cup Pool Stage, October 1, 2011
Tonga boasts a population of 100,000 people, roughly 0.15% that of France. Despite a proud rugby tradition, few expected them to pull up any trees against a French side who had advanced to at least the semi-finals of the last four world cups leading up to 2011.
However, Tonga matched France in virtually every single aspect of the game, boasting almost identical defenders beaten, line breaks and turnovers won/conceded.
This was a match Tonga won by narrowly edging a handful of key areas. A herculean 132 carries resulted in 575 meters gained. This, coupled with two lost lineouts and four lost rucks for France, allowed the Sea Eagles to remain on the front foot throughout. Even Vincent Clerc's late try in the corner was only enough to secure France a losing bonus point.
Unfortunately, this iconic victory still wouldn't be enough for the Pacific Islanders to progress from Pool A to the knock-out rounds for the first time in their history, whereas Les Bleus went on to lose the final by a single point to hosts New Zealand.
Benetton 35-8 Bulls
Rainbow Cup Final, June 19, 2021
Whilst Benetton had performed admirably in reaching the final of the Rainbow Cup, Bulls were heavily fancied to take home the inaugural, and probably penultimate Rainbow Cup Trophy.
Despite amassing three more line breaks and 29 more defenders beaten than Benetton, Bulls were only able to cross the line once in comparison to the Italian side's five tries.
This can perhaps be attributed to Benetton's tenacity, which resulted in them winning nine turnovers and preventing the Bulls from capitalizing on their superior possession and carry stats.
Bulls' inability to retain 18% of their lineouts and 7% of their own rucks further compounded their inability to establish a proper attacking platform, failing to score a single point in the second-half.
Benetton were incredibly efficient when they did have the ball, averaging a try every 15 carries, allowing them to become the first Italian side to ever lift a non-domestic trophy.
Argentina 25-15 New Zealand
2020 Tri-Nations, November 14, 2020
Since joining the Rugby Championship in 2012, Argentina had claimed seven of the eight dreaded wooden spoons on offer before the 2020 edition, while also failing to get the better of New Zealand in 14 attempts.
Playing in Sydney due to Covid restrictions, Argentina superbly stifled New Zealand's famous ability to carve defences open. A colossal 152 tackles completed by Los Pumas meant that New Zealand were only able to break the line twice during the match and conceded turnovers on 14 occasions. The last time they made fewer clean breaks in a Test was in 2017 against the British and Irish Lions.
The All Blacks were unable to frustrate Argentina to such a high degree, winning just two turnovers and failing to steal a single scrum or lineout.
This opened the door for Argentine fly-half Nicolas Sanchez to put them to the sword, scoring all 25 points in a superb individual performance, guiding his side to a first win against their renowned opponents.
New Zealand – Fewest Clean Breaks in a Test (since 2010):

Italy 23–18 France
Six Nations, February 3, 2013
Having finished bottom of the pile on nine out of twelve occasions since joining the Six Nations at the turn of the millennium, Italy were firmly the underdogs as they hosted a French side that had earned a runners-up spot at the 2011 RWC.
However, a dogged display from the Azzurri resulted in a 91% tackle success rate, consistently preventing France from gaining territory. This is further demonstrated by the fact that France only broke the line four times in comparison to Italy's eight.
France also flattered to deceive at set-pieces, losing 31% of their own lineouts in a dismal showing of ball retention.
Italy's charge to victory was led by captain Sergio Parisse, with an early try setting the tone for a performance in which he made 12 carries, resulting in a whopping 104 meters made and three line breaks for the No. 8.
Italy, in addition, also dominated the goal-kicking statistics, with a 100% success rate, along with two drop goals proving enough to seal the win in front of a jubilant home crowd at the Stadio Olimpico.
Forwards to Gain 100+ Metres in a Six Nations Match:
Scott Quinnell 142 Wales Italy 2000
Thomas Lievremont 134 France Ireland 2000
David Wallace 101 Ireland Italy 2001
Imanol Harinordoquy 118 France England 2003
David Wallace 104 Ireland France 2006
Denis Leamy 120 Ireland France 2006
Sergio Parisse 132 Italy Scotland 2008
Sergio Parisse 110 Italy England 2009
Sergio Parisse 116 Italy Wales 2009
Sergio Parisse 123 Italy France 2009
Louis Picamoles 131 France England 2017
Chiefs 15-30 Sunwolves
Super Rugby, March 2, 2019
The Sunwolves didn't enjoy much success during their stint in Super Rugby, conceding an average of 43.6 points per game in their first 47 matches before travelling to New Zealand to face the Chiefs. Also worth noting is that they had failed to win a single game away from home in all that time.
As the only Japanese team to play in the competition, the fingerprints of the national team were evident in the Sunwolves performance here. A monumental 605 meters made from 144 carries was 47.9% more than the Chiefs could manage, demonstrating a relentlessly attacking approach.
This persistent running game was epitomized by winger Gerhard van den Heever, who by himself gained 122 meters, along with beating defenders on three occasions and breaching the Chiefs' line four times.
A glorious kicking display from fly-half Hayden Parker, who nailed all six attempts at goal, was enough to ensure they were able to stay beyond the reach of their opponents and clinch a result that would mark the highlight of their five-year existence before being disbanded in 2020.

Price Gouging in Military Contracts: New Inspector General Report Exposes Excess Profit Obtained by TransDigm Group
The hearing will convene on the Zoom video platform, which has been approved by the House.
Wednesday, January 19, 2022 - 10:00am
Chairwoman Carolyn B. Maloney's Opening Statement
Washington D.C. (January 13, 2022)— On Wednesday, January 19, 2022, at 10:00 a.m., Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney, the Chairwoman of the Committee on Oversight and Reform, will hold a remote hearing to examine the results of an audit by the Department of Defense Office of Inspector General (DOD OIG), which found that a defense contractor, TransDigm Group Inc., has received nearly $21 million in excess profits on numerous contracts by acquiring companies with sole-source contracts for spare parts needed by the military and then raising prices dramatically.
On May 15, 2019, the Committee held a bipartisan hearing examining a DOD OIG report that found TransDigm received $16.1 million in excess profits on 46 of the 47 parts reviewed. After Committee Members called on the company to refund the money during the hearing, TransDigm repaid the full $16.1 million to DOD.
On December 13, 2021, the DOD OIG released a new report requested by the Committee revealing that TransDigm received an additional nearly $21 million in excess profits on 105 of 106 types of spare parts purchased by the Pentagon. The DOD OIG also confirmed that TransDigm's business model is to acquire companies with sole-source contacts, and then hike up prices on the spare parts those companies manufacture.
The hearing will examine the new report as well as potential legislative and administrative reforms to increase transparency and accountability in government contracts.

Glenavon recorded their first league win of the season on Saturday with an emphatic 4 – 2 victory over Warrenpoint Town at Milltown.
It was the home side who took an early lead when Alan O'Sullivan struck on 11 minutes, but the Lurgan Blues turned the game on its head with two goals in the space of three minutes from Mark Sykes and Steo Donnelly just after the half-hour mark.
The visitors then doubled their lead on the stroke of half-time when the excellent Andrew Mitchell got his first of the afternoon.
Substitute Conall McGrandles headed in from a corner to reduce the Point's deficit to just one goal on 74 minutes, but Mitchell struck again just two minutes later, pouncing on an error by goalkeeper Jonathan Parr to ensure that Glenavon left with all three points.
Both teams looked threatening in the opening minutes of the game, with Fra McCaffrey almost releasing O'Sullivan for Warrenpoint and Mitchell volleying a Niall Grace cross straight at Parr for Glenavon.
The hosts went in front in the 12th minute. Gavin Brennan played a ball down the line which McCaffrey flicked on with his head into the path of Ciaran O'Connor. O'Connor burst past Andrew Doyle before crossing to find McCaffrey, who had continued his run into the penalty area. The midfielder's shot was well blocked by Caolan Marron, but O'Sullivan picked up the loose ball and cleverly beat Doyle by feinting to shoot with his right foot before firing the ball in at Jonathan Tuffey's right-hand post with his left.
Glenavon pressed for an equaliser as the half wore on. Doyle should have done better with his header from a Hall corner on 22 minutes, while Rhys Marshall set up Sykes a minute later after a brilliant drag-back took two Warrenpoint players out of the game, but the midfielder's shot was blocked on the edge of the box.
Half an hour in Donnelly picked out strike partner Mitchell with a cross, but he could only direct his header over the bar while under pressure from Parr.
Mitchell was involved once more when the equaliser finally arrived in the 33rd minute. He flicked Tuffey's long ball on with his head for Sykes to run onto and Glenavon's number 10 curled a right-footed shot beyond the dive of Parr into the far corner.
Mitchell was again the provider three minutes later when Glenavon took the lead. He outmuscled Stephen Moan on the left flank before squaring the ball for Donnelly to tap in for his first competitive goal for the Lurgan Blues.
Having set up the first two goals, in the 45th minute it was Mitchell's turn to get on the scoresheet himself, and it was a goal of real quality. Hall played him in with a superb through-ball and Mitchell coolly slotted a first-time finish past Parr to double Glenavon's lead heading into the break.
Four minutes into the second period Donnelly saw a great effort from distance go narrowly over Parr's crossbar, while a minute later Hall's cross went just beyond the head of Mitchell.
The introduction of the impressive McGrandles seemed to tip the balance of play back in the home side's favour and the midfielder pulled a goal back for the hosts in the 75th minute when he rose to meet a corner-kick swung in by fellow-substitute Eamon Scannell and headed the ball past Tuffey.
However, any hopes of a fightback for the home side were dashed a minute later when Mitchell grabbed his second goal of the game. Josh Daniels played a long ball over the top for Mitchell to run onto and Parr came rushing off his line to try and clear the danger, but having travelled outside his penalty area he had to try and head the ball away. The goalkeeper got it all wrong and Mitchell latched onto the loose ball and slotted into an empty need to restore Glenavon's two-goal lead.
Parr atoned for his error by denying Mitchell a hat-trick in injury time with an excellent save. First he had to dive down to his left to save Hall's well-struck free-kick, then he quickly sprang up to brilliantly thwart Mitchell's follow-up effort.
Glenavon boss Gary Hamilton said in the build-up to Saturday's game that his players needed to be more clinical in front of goal, so he will be delighted with their four-goal haul at Milltown.
The performance of Mitchell will have been particularly pleasing for the Glenavon manager. His centre forward was in simply unplayable form, being directly involved in all four goals, and Hamilton knows that if Mitchell continues to play like that he can expect the goals to flow.
Glenavon are on the road again on Friday night (August 17th) when they travel to newly-promoted Newry City (kick-off 7.45pm).

Wrestlers Pin Down Senior Night
First Senior Wrestling Night

"I am proud to be a part of the original wrestling team at Sage, and to start a legacy," Strachan said.
Caleb Strachan stands with his dad, Jeff Strachan, and Iris Strachan, his mom, on senior night.
"I think what I am going to remember is the adrenaline when you get on the mat and the energy that you get when you are practicing. It definitely isn't your ordinary sport and I'm more than grateful to be part of this great team," Kerekffy said.
Cody Kerekffy stands with his mom, Debbie Kerekffy, on senior night.
"One of the things I am going to miss the most about being on the wrestling team is the bonds we formed. Being in that close of proximity to the same people for 4 months you form a bond that resembles more of a brotherhood than anything else. I enjoyed being the captain of the team because I was able to see every one grow and mature through the last 4 years, and it's an awesome feeling knowing that I am leading a team that's capable of competing with some of the best teams around," Hyatt said.
Ethan Hyatt stands with his dad, Drew Hyatt, and his mom, Janice Baker, on senior night.

"I am going to miss that nervousness before practice where you know it's going to be hard but you laugh about it with your teammates," Schnese said.
Michael Schnese stands with his dad, Jones Schnese, and his mom, Moira Schnese, on senior night.
"I am going to miss tearing my enemies to shreds," Martinez said.

"I love the comradery, and I like seeing the new kids improve throughout the year. It's always fun when a lightweight and give me a run for my money," McMillan said.
Paycee McMillan stands with his mom, Sarah McMillan, on senior night.
Pacyee McMillan wrestles for the heavyweight weight class.
"The main thing I am going to miss is the whole team. I have tried other sports like lacrosse and volleyball, but in wrestling everyone feels a lot more like family. Plus, the duels are always extremely fun because it's just you out there with your whole team cheering you on. Lastly, the singlets give you a huge confidence booster. I always feel more beautiful when I wear them," Schwanidt said.

T&C releases remodel design
Town & Country Market released an artist's rendering this week for a proposed remodel of its iconic Winslow store.
The project will bring the market onto a single story and generally modernize the 56-year-old building. The familiar reader board sign on Winslow Way will remain intact.
T&C first announced the proposed remodel in 2012. The company filed an initial project application with the city Thursday, according to a news release. Remodeling work could begin in early 2014 depending on the permit timeline.
Island architects Devin Johnson and Priscilla Zimmerman are designing the project. Tom Chiado is project manager. Abbott Construction of Seattle is the general contractor.
Company representatives say the extensive remodel signifies T&C's commitment to staying put in downtown Winslow.
"We feel now is the right time," T&C Chairman Larry Nakata said in the release. "We are fully committed to downtown and recognize the store's place in our island's history. We want to be part of Winslow's exciting future."
The Loverich and Nakata families opened the Winslow market in 1957. The store expanded in 1990, adding a cafe and floral department. Town & Country Markets now operates five stores.

Snow blankets Bainbridge Island
tristan baurick
Almost five inches of snow blanketed the island on Wednesday, shutting down schools, cancelling city meetings and keeping many slick roads clear of traffic.
As of 5 p.m., the Bainbridge Island Fire Department had responded to just three weather-related calls.
"People stayed indoors and limited their driving, and I think that helped," Fire Chief Hank Teran said.
The only reported vehicle accident was a Tuesday night rollover on New Brooklyn Road. The family inside the vehicle suffered no injuries, according to Bainbridge police.
Teran said someone suffered a fractured ankle due to a snow-related fall.
Firefighters responded to a report of power lines down on Lafayette Avenue.
No significant power outages were reported, and no roads were closed.
Teran said the department was bracing itself for the evening commute, when driving conditions could be more difficult.
A light dusting of snow is predicted for late Thursday morning.

VIDEO: Big green development taking shape in Winslow
King 5 News has a story about Grow Community, a large housing development set to take shape along Wyatt Way and Grow Avenue.
It's aim is to be fully solar powered and to foster an earth-friendly lifestyle that's oriented toward walking, cycling and growing food.
I had a story about it earlier this month, which you can read here.
Unlike most big developments on Bainbridge, Grow Community has drawn little criticism (so far). At a recent public meeting, most of the concerns were about traffic impacts. The development's designers gave assurances that they'd actually be improving the area's transportation infrastructure by adding sidewalks and bike lanes along Wyatt and Grow.
Grow Community will begin building an eventual 137 homes in May.

A "new" Blackbird and other restaurants opening in Winslow
Despite the shaky economy and the challenges the Winslow Way reconstruction poses for businesses, five new downtown leases were signed last week, including three for new eating establishments.
Blackbird Bakery's customers have long wished the nearly-always-crowded coffee and lunch hangout would expand. That wish will come true by mid-April with the opening of Fork and Spoon, a new restaurant that borrows from Blackbird's menu while expanding it to include meat dishes, salads, beer and wine.
"This started as a way to grow our lunch business, which was held back by seating capacity," Blackbird co-owner Jeff Shepard said.
Fork and Spoon will take over the nearby Madrone Lane space formerly occupied by Victor Alexander winery.
There will be no indoor connection to Blackbird's Winslow Way space, although the new restaurant will make use of Blackbird's kitchen.
The new location will have outdoor seating in an enclosed courtyard.
Shepard said Fork and Spoon will use many local ingredients, including Bainbridge eggs and vegetables.
Also set to open soon is Radish, a high-end restaurant run by the former owners of Real Foods, which closed closed a few months ago.
A new sandwich shop is set to open soon in Winslow Mall, but I have little more detail than that.

Winslow Way and the Way Winslow became Suquamish
The 'big dig' is almost here
Believe it or not, but the Winslow Way reconstruction project is less than six weeks away.
Work on the street's utility poles will begin this month. Crews will tear into Winslow Way by the middle of March.
For more about the project, and the small hiccup in its public relations stragegy, head over here.
Ravine rescue
The Bainbridge man was rescued from an Eagledale ravine this week. No big deal, but the TV news helicopters that came to catch the action sure did spark a lot of interest, especially because a body had washed up on Bainbridge the last time the heli-swarm descended on the island. The gentleman in the ravine was just fine, by the way, and so was his dog.
Ferry reform
Kitsap's state legislators want to create a panel to reform the ferry system. The bill calls for a system-wide repair plan by next December.
"Serious declines in the amount and reliability of ferry service in recent years have damaged the economic vitality of many ferry communities. For these businesses and working families, recovering from the current severe recession depends on the rapid restoration of better ferry service," the bill said.
Wall Street whoops
The Wall Street Journal had a nice article about the local geoduck industry yesterday.
The Journal uncovered a key fact that many of us here have failed to recognize: the Suquamish tribe's 700 members live on Bainbridge Island.
I'm not sure how the reservation's expansion could have passed under our noses without so much as a public meeting, a workshop or a charette, but I think we can expect the island to get a lot more exciting. Perhaps a Clearwater Casino satellite location in Island Gateway? Maybe a Benny's Jets fireworks stand stretching across Winslow Green?

City may want a cut of Chamber parking revenues
The City Council is taking a hard look at a 15-year-old program that has allowed downtown's workers to park on city-owned land for a very low rate.
The problem is not so much the program but the fact that the Bainbridge Island Chamber of Commerce gets to keep all the money.

Winslow development clashes with the "Bainbridge aesthetic," officials say
The design illustration above depicts what the prominent northwest corner of the Winslow Way and Highway 305 intersection may look like in the near future.
A new art museum would anchor the front end (depicted at right) of the proposed Island Gateway project, with about 60,000 square feet of commercial space and a new home for the Kids Discovery Museum to the rear.
The project's plans call for the removal of the five-acre site's three existing structures. All new buildings would incorporate green design and the overall site plan features elements to reduce stormwater runoff into Winslow Ravine.
The city's Design Review Board balked, saying the project's design doesn't fit the city's preferred aesthetic for downtown. The board's move doesn't kill the project. The project's developers, owner Bill Carruthers and architect Matthew Coates, will meet with the board next week to hash out some new ideas.
For my full story on the project, click here.

Snow and blackouts are only the latest problems for Winslow merchants

Shoppers squinted and blinked as they entered Lindsleys clothing store on Monday afternoon.
Somewhere among the darkened clothing racks Tom Lindsley was voicing a welcome to them. Most customers needed a few seconds to let their eyes adjust from the glare of Winslow's snowy streets to the dim of the unlit store.
"Right now all we have is daylight," said Lindsley, who co-owns the 17-year-old store store with his wife. "And a few flashlights people will hopefully use."
Lindsleys was one of many downtown shops already struggling under a sluggish economy. The winter snow storm and resulting power outage made a bad situation worse.
And while the Christmas season was anticipated as a happy ending to a tough year, many stores found the snow kept many holiday spenders at home.
"The combination of the weather and the economy really makes things messy," Lindsley said. "It hurts a lot. Our (sales) are way down. And we'll have to close early because it's getting harder to see in here."

A walk into Winslow
Made the hike into Winslow this afternoon. Downtown was a lot more friendly and slow-paced today than it was on Saturday, when the hordes descended on T&C and Safeway to gather survival gear (and last-minute Christmas presents) in preparation for the Snowpocalypse.

Our Soldiers – World War I
Name: James Brown
1878 - 12th March 1915
Place of Birth: Arlesey
Occupation: Straw Cutter
Division: 2nd Battalion
Regiment: Bedfordshire Regiment
Rank: Private
Buried: Panel 10 and 11, Le Touret Memorial, Pas De Calais, France
Person(s) placing the cross on behalf of the Arlesey Remembers You Project: Keith & Sue Hirst
James was born in Arlesey in 1877, the oldest son of James and Sophia Brown of Straw Street, Arlesey. James Snr was a Straw Dealer. James had a younger brother, George, who was born in 1882, and a younger sister, Annie, who was born in 1884.
James was attested into the Army on October 23rd 1894 at the age of 17 years and 2 months. At the time he was living in Straw Street, Arlesey and was employed as a labourer. He was 5 feet 5 inches tall, weighed 114 lbs.; he had a fresh complexion with brown eyes and light brown hair. He attended annual training sessions between 1895 and 1899 and enlisted in the militia reserves as a Private on 4th June 1897. He joined the Special Service Section for service abroad with the Bedfordshire regiment on 19th May 1899. He gave his next of kin as his father, James.
James served in the South African War. The 2nd Battalion were at Roberts Heights near Pretoria in South Africa when WW1 started. They were immediately recalled to England, landing at Southampton on 19th September 1914. After refitting for European warfare they left Southampton at 8am on 5th October 1914 on board the SS Winifredian, landing in Zeebrugge at 6.30am on 7th October. They moved almost 40 miles south in order to meet the rest of the Army and on the Ypres-Menin road on October 18th they met the Germany Army for the first time, in a brief skirmish. The Battalion formed part of the "Immortal" 7th division of the British Army. They were engaged in the Battle of Neuve Chappelle in March 1915. The war diary of the 2nd Battalion gives details of this battle:

Reserve on the right and in rear of the 2nd Bn. Rl.Scots Fusiliers. 10.30 A.M., Left the position of assembly and advanced to second position lining road in M.28.d. Companies came under shellfire and there were some casualties. Remained in this position till 4.20 P.M. 4.30 P.M., Advanced through old British & German trenches in support of 2/R.S.F., on right flank. Subjected to shell and rifle fire. The Bn. reached a position about M.36.a.N.W. and M.29.d.S.E. and entrenched during the night. Lieut.H.O.D.WILKINS led a strong patrol to the high trees about road junction near M.36.a.N.W. and was severely wounded. 1 man was killed. It was reported that the enemy were not very strong but this was not confirmed. Line held by 2nd Battn Bedf. R. as handed over to 7th Rgt. Canadian Div: 2 March 1915. Lieut.W.B.Carslake [William Bampfield CARSLAKE] and Lieut.R.S.St.G.Mayne [Robert Sedborough St. George MAYNE], wounded, Other Ranks, 7 killed 41 wounded, 9 missing.
11 Mar 1915 The Battalion remained in this position all day. Some casualties occurred from high explosive shrapnel from S. also rifle fire from E., S. & W. No.9390 Pte A Hearne [Arthur HEARN] did very good work carrying messages back to Bde. H.Q., on several occasions. He was at last wounded near Bn. H.Q. trench, he had to pass through belts of shrapnel fire also heavy rifle fire. The Northamptons attempted to assault the houses to their front but were met with a very heavy rifle & machine gun fire & had to desist. It was this that kept the Bn. held to the ground. Lieut.F.G.C.Ashmead-Bartlett [Francis George Coningsby ASHMEAD-BARTLETT] wounded, 6 O.Ranks killed, 23 wounded, 2 missing.
12 Mar 1915 During the night 11/12, C & D Coys. dug trenches at right angles to the original ones i.e. facing S., D Coy. closed up. The salient opposite the high trees was occupied by a Company of the R.S.F., who had been brought from the right on the line being readjusted. The salient was rushed by the Germans early in the morning of 12th March. The morning till about noon was decidedly misty. 7 A.M. Major W.H.Denne [William Henry DENNE, DSO] prepared to make a counter attack on the captured trench with part of A.Coy. Major Denne [William Henry DENNE, DSO] was severely wounded. Captain C.B.Cumberlege [Cleland Bulstrode CUMBERLEDGE] & Captain J.H.G.Baird [James Hozier Gardiner BAIRD, MC] commenced a counter attack but the whole party was killed or wounded. Captain Baird [James Hozier Gardiner BAIRD, MC] and 4 men reached the trench one man was killed and the other 3 wounded*. Report of this operation was received at Bn. H.Q., at 7.35 A.M. At about the same time it was noticed that the R.S.F., were suffering severely from our own shellfire. The Adjt. was sent to report this to Bde. H.Q. The Brigadier directed that the trench should be re-taken. Captain C.C.Foss D.S.O. [Charles Calverley FOSS, VC, DSO], with 8 men of Bedfordshire Grenade Section advanced along A.Coy. trench, behind the Northampton Trench, followed by a Platoon of H Coy. to make good the trench and attacked the Germans. These, after one or two grenades had been thrown, held up their hands and were captured, 1 Officer & 48 Germans surrendered of whom 14 were wounded. A.Coy. was sent forward to consolidate the position won. Part of a Platoon of B.Coy. escorted the prisoners back. Names of Grenade Section: - No.9078 Pte W.EADE.

Although they are quite ugly and confined to a life underground, naked mole rats have at least one attribute that other animals, even humans, might aspire to: They don't get cancer. Now, researchers have discovered that the secret to this rodent's good health is a complex sugar that helps keeps cells from clumping together and forming tumors.
Whether this sugar will be useful as an anticancer agent in humans is unclear. But because it exists in the spaces between cells called the extracellular matrix, "the work underlines the very important regulatory role of [the] extracellular matrix in cancer," says Bryan Toole, a cancer biologist at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston who was not involved with the study.
Many researchers study cancer in mice, which live no more than 4 years and are prone to tumors. Molecular and cell biologist Vera Gorbunova of the University of Rochester in New York wanted to take a different tack and focus on animals that seem protected from tumors. So she tracked down the lifespans of 20 different rodents, looking for the ones that live a long time.
Beavers and gray squirrels last a couple of decades, but naked mole rats outlive those larger animals by 10 years. Furthermore, because naked mole rats have a unique social structure, with one queen that produces all the young for an underground colony full of helpers, they have been the subject of long-term research. Thanks to these studies, scientists know for sure that this species doesn't get cancer. Given that naked mole rats live long and are resistant to cancer, "we fell in love with them right away," Gorbunova says.
At first, she and her colleagues did not know where to look for the source of animals' cancer resistance. But when they grew naked mole rat cells in a lab dish, they noticed that cells wouldn't get too close together. Furthermore, the dish contents got very gooey over time, so much so that lab technicians found the cells hard to work with. When the technicians eliminated the goo, the cells would clump together, suggesting they might now form tumors. The researchers tracked the stickiness to a complex sugar called hyaluronan, which cells make and release into the extracellular matrix.
Hyaluronan exists in all animals, helping lubricate joints and serving as an essential component in skin and cartilage. It's been used in skin lotions and antiarthritis treatments, and some forms have even been proposed to promote cancer. However, naked mole rat hyaluronan is unusual in that each molecule is about 5 times the size of hyaluronan molecules from mice, rats, and humans. In addition, the researchers discovered that the enzyme that breaks down this sugar is not very active in naked mole rats, allowing the compound to accumulate to higher concentrations than it does in other animals. The researchers think that this sugar evolved to make naked mole rat skin more elastic and able to cope with the tight squeeze of the narrow underground tunnels.
The work is "very thought-provoking [and] adds an interesting wrinkle to the role of the extracellular matrix in cancer," says Roy Zent, a cell biologist at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville. Toole agrees. "It pushes our thoughts forward [about hyaluronan] in a very dramatic way," he notes. "It establishes hyaluronan as an important player in cancer."
"If we could alter our [hyaluronan] or stabilize it somehow, we may be able to suppress cancers," suggests Carlo Maley, an evolutionary cancer biologist at the University of California, San Francisco, who was not involved with the work. The next step, he adds, is to "put the naked mole rat [hyaluronan] gene into mice and test if they are cancer resistant."

The pope is coming to visit. I'm intrigued by the things he says, the people he chooses to meet, the places he decides to go. He seems to animate the mission of Jesus, as he comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable, so much so that some members of Congress have decided to bail on his speech. (I confess I wonder what better use of their time they will discover.) His travels fall during what he has described as a year of mercy. When I first heard about this year of mercy, announced in a homily last March, the snark in me surfaced. It reminded me of the Episcopal Church when we had a decade of evangelism, as if we do evangelism for a while and then next decade do something else. In the same way that I think that evangelism (i.e., sharing good news in word and action) is something we are called to do all the time, so I puzzled at a year would focus on mercy. Shouldn't that always be part of the Christian life, or as the psalmist said, shouldn't mercy endure forever?
My very favorite prayer (at least this week) is the Great Thanksgiving, offered in Morning and Evening Prayer. It's printed in the column on the left. For me, it sums up what it means to live a life of faith. In the midst of that prayer, we make this request: Give us such an awareness of your mercies that with truly thankful hearts, we may show forth your praise not only with our lips but with our lives.
This Monday morning, pray for awareness of God's mercy. You might get out pen and paper and answer the following questions, as a spiritual exercise. What are synonyms for mercy? Kindness, grace, generosity, forgiveness, forbearance, pity, compassion, love? Cut someone slack? Give someone a break? Let it go? Then ask: When have I experienced a sense of mercy, from God or others? Give thanks for that. Then think about one way you can show mercy to someone else today. Admit that there are ways that our church, and each one of us in the church, withhold mercy. Ask for help to stop doing that.
For many reasons, I'm grateful for the ministry of this Pope. I'm particularly grateful that this morning, he's calling me to a season in which I become more aware of God's mercies. May that season never end.
the reading chosen for the Feast of St. Matthew (which is today).

Hersi back training for unbeaten Wanderers
By AAP – Tuesday 19 November, 2013
Western Sydney playmaker Youssouf Hersi has returned to training after injuring his foot and hopes to be fit for the A-League clash with Brisbane.
Western Sydney livewire Youssouf Hersi is back smiling and on track to return from injury in Friday night's top-of-the-table A-League clash with Brisbane.
The Wanderers' key playmaker joined his teammates on the training paddock this week for the first time since injuring his foot in the Sydney derby on October 26.
Coach Tony Popovic was upbeat about Hersi's progress on Tuesday but stopped short of guaranteeing him a start in the blockbuster at Suncorp Stadium.
"He looks very happy and determined and his foot's improved," Popovic said.
"Now we just have to assess how he trains this week and how his body is, whether he will be available for selection."
Despite winning all three matches in the absence of Hersi's midfield magic – against Adelaide, Melbourne Heart and Melbourne Victory – Popovic admits his inclusion this week would provide a great boost for the undefeated Wanderers.
"He's a very good player. It's nice to have him out on the training field. I'm sure the boys like having him out there," he said.
"He's a great character and it's good to see him happy again and over this injury."
Popovic praised the likes of Tahj Minniecon, Shannon Cole and Brendan Santalab who have helped plug the hole left by Hersi.
"Everyone will play a role this year and the players that have come in have done a great job," he said.
The coach declared his entire squad – bar injured young gun Tomi Juric – in contention for a starting spot, including skipper Michael Beauchamp who was dumped in favour of Matthew Spiranovic for the past two games.
The Wanderers sit two points clear of the Roar on top of the A-League ladder after six rounds and have not lost any of their past 18 regular-season matches.
Although pleased with how his fledgling side is travelling, Popovic continues to downplay their on-field success and says Friday night will be a huge test for last season's minor premiers.
"It will be what we expect: a real tough encounter.
"We've got a lot of respect for the way Brisbane plays and the players they've got, so we know they'll be very strong come Friday night (despite last week's loss to Newcastle).
"We just want to put on a very good performance and we know if we do that, we give ourselves a chance."

Recruit students and graduates Access NTU Expertise Professional and Short Courses Apprenticeships Enterprise and business spaces Financial and Funded Support Hire facilities Procurement Success Stories
Sara Slack - Exposure Ninja
Through the Smart and Inclusive Leadership project, NTU is offering a range of fully funded courses to employees of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). One of these courses is the Women in Leadership course, designed to support women to develop their careers and their capability to manage and lead within their organisations.
Sara Slack, project manager at Exposure Ninja
One of the businesses that sent their employees on the Women in Leadership course is Exposure Ninja, a digital marketing agency based in West Bridgford, just outside Nottingham city centre.
Offering a range of services from web design and SEO, to pay-per-click, content marketing and social media management, the company supports small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with digital marketing that makes an impact.
Sara Slack is a project manager at Exposure Ninja, responsible for creating marketing campaign strategies, working with clients to establish their objectives, agreeing targets, and reporting back on successes to date.
After hearing about NTU's Women in Leadership course from a colleague who had taken part in a previous cohort, Sara decided to sign up.
Although she wasn't sure at first what she wanted to get out of the course, she quickly realised that her interest lay in developing her leadership skills.
Sara says: "I realised pretty soon after starting that my interest lay in how to be a more effective leader. I also wanted to better understand how company culture can be shaped and championed by individuals.
"The first piece of coursework - the Personal Development Plan - made me sit and consider my next career steps. It allowed me to see that taking the next step was possible with some structure, which was a game-changer for me."
Within three months of completing her plan, Sara had applied for and gotten a promotion that she'd previously been unsure about putting herself forward for.
When reflecting on the impact that the course has had for her, Sara says: "I can honestly say that this course has easily had the biggest impact on me, both career-wise and also on a personal development level. It has surpassed my expectations.
"Our company culture at Exposure Ninja is fantastic and the course has led me to appreciate this side of the business and the work that goes into it even more. I can identify different frameworks and approaches so that I can better understand how to prioritise my leadership style for my new team.
"I've already made a lot of changes, focusing more on the long-term and maintaining more of a growth mindset."

Ohio State To Hire Tim Walton As CBs Coach
By Patrick MayhornJanuary 13, 2022 (11:57 am)Football
Ohio State's big day continues. Shortly after the hiring of Perry Eliano from Cincinnati as safeties coach and the departures of defensive coordinator Kerry Coombs and linebackers coach Al Washington, the Buckeyes seem to have something approaching a settled staff – though the status of special teams coordinator Parker Fleming remains a question – after its most recent move.
The Buckeyes are bringing Tim Walton back to Columbus.
A former defensive back with the Buckeyes, Walton suited up for the Buckeyes early in the John Cooper era and served as a co-captain on the 1993 team, which went 10-1-1 and won a share of the Big Ten. His playing career came to a close after his time at Ohio State, as he joined Bowling Green's staff first as a graduate assistant in 1995 and eventually as a full-time staffer from 1996-99, working under former Buckeye assistant Gary Blackney, who helped recruit Walton to Columbus.
He departed in 2000 to serve for two seasons on Tommy West's staff at Memphis, first under West the defensive coordinator as a defensive backs coach and then under West the head coach in 2001. He spent the 2002 season at Syracuse in the same role, coached Nick Saban's defensive backs at LSU in its 2003 national title season and then jumped to Miami under another former Buckeye assistant in Larry Coker from 2004-07. He jumped up defensive coordinator briefly in 2007 before departing for the same role at Memphis in 2008.
That was his final stint in college football, at least until now. He joined the Detroit Lions as the defensive backs coach in 2009 and remained until 2012; spent one season with the Rams as defensive coordinator in 2013; took a season off; and returned to football in 2015 with the Giants, back in the defensive backs room, where he would remain until 2017.
He again sat out the 2018 season, jumping back into coaching in 2019 as the cornerbacks coach for the Jaguars, where he remained until this offseason – working under both Doug Marrone and former Ohio State coach Urban Meyer.
At Ohio State, he'll work in tandem with Eliano and defensive coordinator Jim Knowles, who is expected to fill in for Washington in coaching linebackers. As of now, the Buckeyes have 10 full-time staffers, though only four are on the defensive side of the ball, and head coach Ryan Day doesn't traditionally work with the defense.
