Wife hit with golf club after she refuses addicted husband's requests for cash, Decatur police say
Tony Reid
DECATUR — Police said a Decatur woman, fed-up with her drug-addicted husband's constant requests for money, ordered him out of their home and he retaliated by whacking her in the head with a golf club.
A sworn affidavit from Decatur police said the woman had a bleeding cut to her forehead when officers were questioning her after she was attacked around 6 a.m. Dec. 5. Her 55-year-old husband was found and arrested at 5:36 a.m. Sunday and booked on a preliminary charge of committing domestic battery while having a prior domestic battery conviction.
Describing the attack, the woman is quoted as telling police her husband had a "drug problem" and would not stop asking her for cash. "(She) stated she finally had enough and told him to leave the apartment," the affidavit said.
"She stated that he grabbed a golf club (5 iron) and hit her in the forehead, causing injury."
A check of Macon County Jail records showed the husband remained in custody Wednesday night with bail set at $35,000, meaning he must post $3,500 to be released. If he makes bail, he is ordered to stay away from his wife.
All preliminary charges are subject to review by the state's attorney's office.

This is where having the assistance of a lawyer is vital.
Sometimes you cannot undo the damage that has been done just by talking over the phone with an insurance adjuster. The safest thing to do is to hire an attorney to look out for your best interests and determine if the insurance companies even need such a statement.

Doctors and hospitals are often are in a rush to get injured parties treated. This often leads to confusion over the payment arrangements and determining which insurance company will actually pay for the services can be overwhelming. Should health insurance pay?

These complicated questions have very different answers depending on the particular claim and the specific insurance policies at play. Only the most experienced injury attorneys can help you navigate these dangerous waters and ensure your medical bills are paid on time and you don't have bills in collections.

A Farewell from the Residents in Residence
Trumpington- the blueprint for an award winning community?
A Visitor's Reflection by Cecilie Sachs Olsen
As a place to live, this has everything
Carol Holloway
Lives inSefton Close (off Scotsdowne Road)
Moved to Trumpington in1990
Type of housing4-bedroom detached house, built in the 1960s
Current market valuearound £420,000 (according to Zoopla)
Favourite place in Trumpington"Byron's Pool is my number one spot. I like the wildlife and the peace and the water and the trees, and all that stuff, which is wonderful.I also have also a fondness for the railway crossing that goes across the fields to Addenbrooke's Hospital. My husband Jimmy (then my boyfriend) and I walked down there one evening when we were commuting between London and Cambridge and had a conversation about our future. We decided there that we were going to stay together long term. A month later I was pregnant. It feels like that spot has a force field under the ground! There's a bridge there now. I know this isn't going to be everyone's cup of tea but I love seeing Addenbrooke's Hospital on the horizon. Partly because I worked there and partly because we had our wedding reception there, at the Frank Lee Centre."
When Carol Holloway first moved to Trumpington from London 25 years ago, it seemed like a rural idyll. The first house she bought on Foster Road was a two-up two-down end of terrace, a former council house built in the late 1940s with a long garden that ran down to the allotments. She grew her own veg there. And her daily commute to her new job as a social worker at Addenbrooke's Hospital was across the farming fields beyond.
It was a far cry from the tiny flat she had left behind in Finsbury Park, where the view from her window was dominated by tower blocks. Carol had been drawn to the bright lights of London when she was 17 and had spent most of her adult life there, working as a social worker by day and hobnobbing with musicians like Elvis Costello by night. In fact, the famous singer even penned one of his ballads in the back of her 2CV! But after 20 years of fast living, she wanted to see what it was like to settle down somewhere other than London. She had moved around a lot when she was a child, following her RAF father from one posting to the next. For Carol, Trumpington seemed like the perfect spot to lay down some roots – even though, as she discovered after she moved in, some of her neighbours had their fair share of social issues to contend with, from drug abuse to domestic violence.
"It looked like a little rural idyll," says Carol. "It was so delightful. It had such a lovely big garden. And it was close to the city centre and the countryside. So all of those things appealed to me."
"Although it never was a rural idyll," she admits. "It was a suburb of Cambridge. And it was one of the more deprived areas of Cambridge, as I discovered. The neighbours were a bit mixed, but having been a social worker and moved from opposite a huge tower block in London, that just didn't faze me. Some of my neighbours were lovely. We all used to do our best to support each other and support the kids when the parents were going off on one."
It looked like a rural idyll...
Oasis of calm
More than three decades later, Carol is still living in Trumpington – albeit in a bigger house around the corner, in a quiet cul de sac just off Scotsdowne Road that used to be the site of the dairy at Manor Farm. Walking into the airy and tranquil 1960s home she shares with her therapist husband Jimmy and cat Percy, it's hard to imagine that this oasis of calm was once filled with lodgers and teenagers and the general chaos of family life. Jimmy now runs his therapy practice from a tastefully converted garage space – where he specialises in anger management.
Sitting in the secluded garden surrounded by birdsong, bamboo, potted plants, feathery acer trees and statuettes of sleeping frogs and other exotic creatures, it's clear that Carol isn't fazed by anything much in life. Reclining in the pebbled corner she and Jimmy call "the beach" (in a nod towards Jimmy's Brighton background), she exudes an air of contentment, although she's nursing a cough that's the only outward sign of a recent bout of ill health.
Still looking trendy at the age of 62 with cropped blonde hair, an infectious smile and brightly coloured leggings, since she moved from London she has raised a son, got married to Jimmy (who moved from London to be with her), had a successful career in the social sector, paid off her mortgage and is now semi-retired – working just a few days a week at Addenbrooke's as a Development Manager for Macmillan Cancer Support. And although she freely admits that her heart is still very much in London, she has no intention of leaving Trumpington.
"I'm a Londoner who lives in Cambridge," she says. "Always will be. I miss London and I love it and I go back a lot. I have friends and family there and I still visit a couple of times a month."
In spite of the strong pull towards the Big Smoke, Trumpington has been a fantastically convenient place for Carol to live and to bring up her son Tom (who's now 23 and living in Waterbeach). And while some people might be fazed by the changes going on in Trumpington as 4,300 houses are being built on the new Great Kneighton and Trumpington Meadows developments, Carol is embracing the new opportunities – and the new neighbours – that the houses will bring with them.
"I've enjoyed living in Trumpington because of all the practicalities around ease of access – to the town, to the countryside, to London, to schools," she says. "As a place to live, this has everything. And when you've lived somewhere and brought up a child, you do build up friendships and networks and we've done that. I've always been a neighbourly person so I've always made a point of getting to know my neighbours."
"One of the things that Jimmy likes about living here, and I agree, is that you see the same faces. If you go out to Waitrose or go down to the garage to get a pint of milk, or you go into town, you see the same people. And you might never have talked to them, but it gives you a sense of belonging because there's that sense of stability and history in the people around you."
It's giving us far more in terms of community facilities...
Finding a community identity
"But I don't think Trumpington until now has had a very strong sense of community identity," she says. "I think there are some people who have had that sense for themselves because they've been members of the residents' association or the history group or the WI or the church. Those have been the main groups."
As an illustration, she cites recent attempts to move her 91-year-old widowed father from Ipswich to a flat in the Crossways development for pensioners opposite the shops on Trumpington's Anstey Way, which has now been converted into luxury flats.
"Trying to find things he could join in with was very difficult," says Carol. "He's an RAF officer and that's his identity still. For him, Cambridge was dominated by academics and lawyers in the Mason's groups that he belongs to. They were closed to him because he's not an academic or a lawyer. The British Legion isn't active around here. And he's not a bingo person. Basically he felt he didn't fit here and he moved back to his bungalow near Ipswich. And that for me just emphasised that Trumpington has its pocket of community but actually it's not a place that's easy to find your place in."
Although Carol has lived in Trumpington for 25 years, she has never quite felt the sense of cohesive community spirit that she's seen in neighbouring villages. And perhaps it's fair to say that she's never quite found a place where she feels entirely at home.
"I've always looked slightly enviously and probably rather romantically at Great Shelford, which has a much better sense of community in the kinds of shopping facilities available – and things like the am dram groups and singing groups and a wider range of social activities like the annual Big Feast, which Trumpington has never had," she says.
And this is one of the reasons why Carol is so enthusiastic about the new housing developments going on around in Trumpington.
"While a lot of people are going to commute and not be part of the community, it's giving us far more in terms of community facilities," she says. "It will be much more of a tipping point in terms of size of the population and how we're viewed when it comes to funding things. I think we'll get a much bigger sense of community identity and community groups growing up out of that, as well as community activities. And I think we're getting a greater sense of diversity."
"You see far more South Asian people around in Waitrose than you ever used to!" she says. "You don't see people of African or Caribbean origin around here very much. It will give us a much broader demographic mix altogether in terms of ages and people – and that for me can only be a good thing."
I think we're going to have far more access to wildlife space in the developments than we ever had...
Seeing the positives
Far from lamenting the loss of green belt land that she used to walk across to get to work two decades ago, Carol sees it as a positive that some of these fields will now be dedicated parkland for all residents to enjoy.
"I think we're going to have far more access to that kind of wildlife space in the developments than we ever had because the fields were farmers' fields and they had crops on!" she says. "You could cycle past the acres of rape [seed] and you'd start wheezing if you had asthma. But access was very restricted to that countryside. You could see it but you couldn't do anything on it or with it or access any real wildlife experiences. Whereas now we're actually going to have land that we're entitled to use managed by the Wildlife Trust over on Trumpington Meadows that we can all get involved with. I think what we're getting will have a much bigger appeal to a wider range of people. It will be fantastic!"
The only downside Carol foresees is the increasing pressure on Trumpington's roads – although she herself prefers to use her bike and loves the new cycle path along the guided busway that takes her straight down to the station in less than 20 minutes.
"Traffic is a major issue," she admits. "The idealistic view is that everyone has one parking space and they're all supposed to use their bicycles and the Park and Ride. I agree with it in principle, but we've got a long way to go in re-educating people about how they get around. And we've got to have better public transport, quite frankly, if we want people to leave their cars at home."
Another concern Carol has is the need for more shopping facilities to cater for Trumpington's growing population.
"Waitrose can't cope," she says. "We've got to have more food shopping available."
This problem may be addressed in part by the shopping facilities in the new community square that's being built behind Foster Road. Although nobody quite knows yet what shops will be moving in there.
"I'm looking forward to having a square that has a sense of a community centre," says Carol. "Having more community facilities, particularly a medical centre as I get older. And hopefully more expanded and diverse social opportunities that come with the new development."
"I would love to see a community café [in the square]," she says. "I hope it's not going to be completely taken over by chain restaurants, though we probably need one or two of those for the teenagers. And we need to somehow make sure it doesn't become a no go area because teenagers use it. You need to have a little place where teenagers go that allows the rest of the space to be less scary for other people."
With her social worker's hat on, Carol also worries about catering for the more vulnerable members of the community as the area expands – particularly the older generation. And she will get more involved as a volunteer in this area, she says, as she finally retires for good in the next few years.
"I think the cross-generational thing is something we need to pay attention to and not do everything for children and families or teenagers, important though they are," she says. "I think my particular interest and emphasis will be on older people, bringing the old and new community together. I guess most of the new community will be younger, but they will age. So they'll need something as they age."
"Crossways did give us a focus for the older generation," she says. "They were a visible presence as a group. We still have the annual outing to Hunstanton and things like that. But I think it's actually about setting up some schemes so we have more organised visiting of older people and fetching people to get involved in things – helping people to attend events."
"I think the stuff Philippa Slatter is doing around events as part of the Trumpington Residents Association is great," she says. "I think that group needs to think about how to include people who are socially excluded. And we need some sheltered flats. We haven't got anything now Crossways has gone."
As Carol herself approaches retirement, it's clear that she won't be spending too much time sitting around admiring the tranquillity of her garden. She plans to get out there and join local groups and get more involved in local politics, things she has never had time to do as a busy working parent.
"I never wanted to sit in the garden," she says. "I always wanted to get involved in other things. I love doing all sorts of craft things so I've been going to lots of different groups and learning new skills. Basically with lots of people sitting around and nattering and making things. I'm a very sociable person."
"I can now get a bit more involved in local politics, which I haven't had time to do until now. I've resisted getting involved in the residents association because I've had so many years of my working life going along to meetings with long agendas and detailed minutes. But I am interested in being involved in other ways."
Carol used to help out with the soft play group at the Trumpington Pavilion for a while. And she goes along to Trumpington Stitchers, a local sewing group, when she's not singing in a local choir on Mondays. She shows me an upstairs room in her house overlooking the garden that she calls her craft room. In this zen-like room that was once her son's bedroom, she gets to try out new craft skills while her husband Jimmy rediscovers the graphic design skills he left behind when he followed Carol up to Cambridge after she fell pregnant. And it's clear that they're both looking forward to the prospect of settling into retired life together in Trumpington – and perhaps to finally finding a place they're happy to call home.
"We both feel very settled here now," she says. "Although Jimmy has many friends and colleagues through his professional networks, he's more introverted and I'm more extrovert. The new facilities, services and opportunities for local activities will be great for both of us as we grow older here. I might join groups and Jimmy might just enjoy walks in the park and a coffee in the square. We'll both enjoy the new community in our different ways."

Patterns of Aging in Thailand and Cote D'Ivoire
Angus Deaton () and Christina Paxson
No 3436, NBER Working Papers from National Bureau of Economic Research, Inc
Abstract: This paper is broadly concerned with the living standards of older people in two contrasting developing countries, Cote d'Ivoire and Thailand. We use a series of household surveys from these two countries to present evidence on factors affecting the living standards of the elderly: living arrangements, labor force participation, illness, urbanization, income and consumption. One of the issues we examine is whether life-cycle patterns of income aid consumption can be detected in the data. The fact that few of the elderly live alone makes it difficult to accurately measure the welfare levels of the elderly, or to make statements about the life-cycle patterns of income aid consumption of individuals. We find that labor force participation and individual income patterns follow the standard life-cycle hump shapes in both countries, but that avenge living standards within households are quite flat over the life-cycle. The data presented suggest that changes in family composition aid living arrangements of the elderly are likely to be more important sources of old-age insurance than asset accumulation.

There's nothing better than perfectly custom designed fabric Roller Shades to cover your window frames; giving you the opportunity to feel cozy and comfortable in your living space without compromising your sense of style. Also known as Holland Blinds, they offer neat and sophisticated feel of curtains with the added bonus of easily rolling up in order to let sunlight through.
With a variety of roller window blinds to choose from, you can easily complement your existing décor by adding matching fabrics or patterns, perhaps even choosing light filtering roller shades to keep sunlight out when you need it most. However, in order to keep your new purchase in tip top condition for many years to come, you're going to have to know how to care for roller blinds in the best way possible.
By using a professional lubricant spray, you can easily get rid of any squeaky noises which may become quite irritating over time. Since it's widely available and safe to use in most areas, you don't have to worry about struggling to get rid of noisy spots. It is, however, important to avoid getting lubricant spray on the fabric and you could end up staining the area. It's important to be extremely careful about spraying the lubricant only on the areas which need treatment.
2. Wipe in a downward motion.
In order to easily wipe away any dust, you can opt for wiping in a downward motion while the fabric Roller Blinds are closed by using a clean, damp cloth. Be sure that the cloth is clean as to avoid adding any dirt or dust to your roller window blinds. Stay on top of your cleaning by wiping down your custom designed window blinds at least once a week.
3. Always check the type of fabric.
It's important to determine the type of fabric used to make your custom Roller Shades as certain fabrics may not be machine washable. Some fabric Roller Blinds will need to be taken to the dry cleaners in order to be cleaned professionally, however, you can always spot clean them to get rid of possible marks.
Click here to book your free in-home consultation.
4. Use natural cleaning products.
Although it may be safe enough to use chemical cleaning products, it's not recommended as natural cleaning products are the safest. However, it's best to check the label first to determine the cleaning instructions – finding out if chemical cleaning products are safe to use on your fabric Roller Blinds. Rather be safe than sorry instead of ending up with irreparable damage to your new purchase.
5. Opt for a soft brush vacuum cleaner.
It's important to be gentle with your fabric Roller Shades, thus, instead of using a normal vacuum cleaner tip, opt for a soft brush vacuum cleaner or hand vacuum to apply a gentle pressure. By preserving and maintaining your fabric Roller Shades, you're able to use them for many years still to come.
6. Use an old toothbrush.
By using a mixture of warm water and washing powder, you're able to get rid of obvious marks or stains by using an old toothbrush and gently rubbing the fabric. Opt for a soft bristle to avoid damaging the fabric. Be sure, though, that the toothbrush used is clean to avoid adding dirt to the window blind.
7. Avoid direct sunlight for drying.
Once you've washed your shades, it's best to avoid leaving them in the sun to dry as this could result in the color fading. The better alternative is to hang your window blinds in the shade for the day – as the wind will dry the shades, not the sun. This will help to maintain the color longer and prevent premature ageing of your shades.
Custom roller shades are easy to maintain by following the above-mentioned tips – ensuring that your fabric Roller Shades remain in a relatively good condition for many years. Remember, the better you maintain your roller window blinds, the longer they'll last.
If you haven't yet made the decision to invest in fabric Roller Shades for your home, our team of professionals will help determine which window blind will match your lifestyle needs. Please contact us to schedule your free in-home consultation – matching your existing décor choice with our custom designed window blinds.


Last night at The Golden Globes, several iconic moments happened: Meryl Streep took down Donald Trump, a new Beauty and the Beast trailer dropped, and Ryan Reynolds and Andrew Garfield kissed on the mouth as Ryan Gosling took to the stage.
Truly a glorious moment for us all—but especially for Garfield's ex-girlfriend Emma Stone, who watched the kiss backstage and reacted in perfect disbelief.
So cute, even when they're not together.


crystallisation of amorphous alloys (rus. кристаллизация аморфных сплавов) — method of creating a heterogeneous nanocrystalline structure in an amorphous alloy by special annealing that ensures crystallisation of the alloy with isolation in the amorphous matrix of crystalline grains (clusters) of different compositions, whose size is below 15 nm.
Preliminary (before crystallisation by annealing) deformation of amorphous alloys by rolling or low-temperature annealing allows the grain size to be reduced to ~ 5 nm. All methods of producing amorphous alloys (metallic glasses) are based on rapid transition of the alloy components from liquid to solid state. Spinning is the most common method of metal alloy amorphisation.

Air NG member awarded the Air Force Cross for "extraordinary heroism"
By Air National Guard Tech. Sgt. John Orrell
National Guard Bureau
ARLINGTON, Va. (4/12/12) - Air Force Capt. Barry Crawford, a Maryland Air National Guard member from the 175th Wing, who fought in and survived a 14-hour firefight in 2010, was presented the Air Force Cross during a ceremony at the Pentagon today.
Maryland Air National Guard Capt. Barry F. Crawford Jr. was presented the Air Force Cross during a ceremony at the Pentagon April 12, 2012, for his heroism during his service as a Special Tactics Officer while deployed to Afghanistan. On May 4, 2010, Crawford - while attached to an Army Special Forces Operational Detachment Alpha and its Afghan partner force - was instrumental in saving the lives of three Afghan soldiers and evacuated two Afghans killed in action. (Defense Department photo By Glenn Fawcett)(Released)
According to the certificate that is accompanying the Air Force Cross - which is the second highest military award for a member of the Air Force - Crawford earned this honor for "extraordinary heroism in military operations against an armed enemy of the United States," where he was serving as an active duty Air Force special tactics officer near Laghman Province, Afghanistan May 4, 2010.
At the time of the firefight Crawford was a combat controller - in which he was the air-to-ground communications link - attached to an Army Special Forces Operational Detachment and their Afghan commando unit - the Afghani elite infantry troops much like U.S. Army Rangers.
On that day the group was tasked to participate in a large battle plan in the mountainous provinces just east of Kabul, he said.
After reaching the landing zone Crawford received reports that the enemy were positioning themselves on the high-ground for an attack.
The group started to receive machine gun and sniper fire from about 100 enemy fighters. During the hail of gunfire all around him Crawford "took decisive action to save the lives of three wounded Afghan soldiers and evacuate two Afghan soldiers killed in action," according to the citation.
At this point Crawford - recognizing that if the injured were not immediately evacuated they would die - ran into the open, surrounded by enemy fire, to ensure the rescue helicopter could find them.
"Fortunately we were able to get them [medically evacuated] and [because of that] they are alive today," he said.
Throughout the 14-hour event Crawford was able to engage what he called his "muscle memory" from years of training and was able to call in multiple AH-64 Apache helicopter 30mm strafe attacks, F-15E Strike Eagle maneuvers and continue to keep the enemy at bay with his weapon.
With ammunition running low and daylight escaping, the group had to exit the village. To achieve this they had to move about two kilometers over steep terrain. During this time Crawford's element was ambushed and trapped in the open with enemy fighters – some as close as 150 meters – firing down upon them.
According to the citation, "without regard for his own life … Crawford moved alone across open terrain in the kill zone to locate and engage enemy positions with his assault rifle while directing AH-64 30 mm strafe attacks. Continuing to move the team further over 1.5 kilometers of steep terrain with minimal cover … Crawford again engaged the enemy with his assault rifle while integrating AH-64s and F-15Es in a coordinated air-to-ground attack plan that included strafing runs along with 500 and 2,000 pound bomb and Hellfire missile strikes."
This was the moment when he felt that no matter how much he trained, it could have been the end.
"There was a point … when the ground force commander made the call that 'we can't stay any longer' … we were almost out of ammo, we needed to get to the exfiltration helicopter landing zone to hopefully get out of there – and we knew were going to have to fight our way out of there," he said.
At this point Crawford said he had a moment of clarity where his training stopped momentarily and his brain kicked in for a minute.
"We've been getting shot at, we're soaking wet … and before we had to run uphill out of there I definitely thought 'well, I'm probably going to get shot; get your mind ready … and find a way push through whatever is about to happen and just keep on doing what you're doing. You're keeping the enemy at bay, you're crushing their will to fight,'" he said.
All-in-all throughout the entire 14-hours of the firefight Crawford was able to coordinate more than 33 aircraft and 40 airstrikes.
He attributes his actions that day to his training and the team mentality.
"Everyone that day performed heroically, it was the direst of situations once the enemy fire started it didn't stop for 14 hours, and we were surrounded by a numerically superior force, Crawford said. "It was a kill-or-be-killed scenario and if everyone didn't perform how they did - that complete team effort - I wouldn't here today."
After returning home Crawford wanted to continue to serve but also live out another dream of his – to become a pilot. He found this opportunity with the Maryland Air National Guard's 175th Wing.
"I love serving my country, I don't think there's anything more honorable than that," he said. "I was offered the opportunity to attend Undergraduate Pilot Training and become a member of the 104th Fighter Squadron … to fly A-10s."
He said this is a move that is personal to him since he spent his time on the ground coordinating A-10s sometimes.
"I love close air support – with my prior combat experience … I feel that once I learn to become an A-10 pilot then … I can bring some good to the unit but also to the Maryland Air National Guard … [with my] never quit attitude," Crawford said. "I hope to bring those attributes and … add to the awesome tradition of the Air National Guard."

As he broke away, then broke a tackle on his way to a game deciding 90-yard touchdown run, UConn running back Arkeel Newsome put that doubt (if they really was any) to bed while amassing 244 total yards of offense in a 31-13 Huskies win over East Carolina University.
Newsome set career marks with that run, set another with his 179 total yards rushing and showed people why he was recruited to attend the school in Storrs that so wants to see their football team join the ranks of the winning.
His long run came after a near disaster of a special team's play that featured two fumbles that put UConn deep in their own territory at the ten.
Newsome went to the right side of the line, found a hole and got behind the defense at about his own 40.
From there it was a foot race with three Pirate defenders, one managed to nip at his heals at about the 20 but the sophomore offensive force stayed on his feet and went in for the score that made it a 24-6 Huskie lead with 1:51 left in the third.
Okay, it took him 15 second to go 90-yards, not exactly Olympic like but heck, he's got to wait for a hole and he's wearing pads so 15 is still pretty darn good.
The win was a crucial one for UConn who were getting pretty close to being irrelevant after losing five of their last six, including a disheartening 37-13 loss last Saturday at Cincinnati.
"It's really great to see one of my classmates do so well," Luke Carrezola said, "He's a great kid and works really hard."
Carrezola and his defense rebounded nicely from their worst game a week ago that dropped them to 3-5.
The Huskies shut out a Pirate team until a fourth quarter touchdown by Blake Kemp made it a 24-13 game.
ECU had scored the game's first points on a pick six by DaShawn Benton off an errant throw by Bryant Shirreffs that he returned 32-yards and had the small crowd wondering if they were going to see more of the same as the past few weeks.
Four interceptions helped the UConn cause, along with a pair of stops on fourth down that thwarted Pirate drives.
Shirreffs rebounded well, finishing 12-21 for 184 and a 23-yard touchdown pass to Alec Bloom on a drive aided by a pair of ECU penalties, including a targeting call off a hit against Hergy Mayala that added 15 yards to a 29 yard gain. ECU defensive back Travon Simmons was ejected on the play that seemed to ignite the Huskies.
The big freshman wide out was fine and returned to the game.
Newsome pushed in from two-yards out after a pass interference call gave the home team a first and goal from the two.
Shirreffs was less prone to run on Friday night versus games past but did manage one John Elway like run from three yards out for the Huskies final points.
The red shirt signal caller took a big hit at about the one but launched and spun down on the goal line for the score.
NOTES: Newsome's 179 yards rushing were the most by a UConn running back since Jordan Todman rushed for 192 back on September 18, 2010.


In any project when one is trying to build a target state solution it is important to gather the requirements in a effective way. Very often it is a challenge to gather effective requirements. With respect to building BI solutions it is always preferred to have good requirements. BI Solutions are closely tied with business performance and also provide them capability to do analytics. Here is a link, an article written by SQL Server Expert James Serra on gathering requirements for BI Solution.
It is a very exhaustive list, it provides a good perspective on how to approach requirements gathering.

This Is Samsung's Curved Smartphone [Photos]
By Ben Reid | October 9th, 2013
It's becoming a very common occurrence that prominent revealer of tech goodies Evleaks keeps coming up with legit shots of new devices before they're launched, and with the blogosphere abuzz pertaining Samsung's curved "Galaxy Round" device, that same Twitter handle has come through with the first renders of the elusive device. Set to become the first smartphone with a flexible panel, it will not only be more comfortable when held beside the face for calls, but gaming and watching video clips should also be enhanced. More details, as well as those renders, can be seen after the jump.
From what we've gathered so far, the handset will carry a virtually identical range of hardware specs to the Galaxy Note 3, and as you'll see from the Evleaks shots below, it's of very similar aesthetic. If anything, it's almost as if the Galaxy Note 3 has simply been heated up and reshaped, but since the fanbase of Samsung's phablet range has continued to grow in recent years, this tweaked form factor may also pique the interest of smartphone shoppers this fall.
The curvaceous nature of the display suggests it could be made of a plastic composition as opposed to Gorilla Glass, but for those partial to a flagship Samsung device, plastic finishes are nothing new. Despite the pleas of many to build a decent smartphone laden in the kind of aluminum body seen with the likes of the HTC One or iPhone 5s, Samsung has stuck religiously with the plastic form factor, and as such, finishing the display in a similarly unspectacular material shouldn't affect its overall appeal.
As for when this device will become available, it's currently anyone's guess. We've been hearing that it might be set for announcement at some point this week, and although it looks set, at least initially, to debut in Korea, one would hope that Samsung has plans to distribute this intriguing creation across the globe.
As for pricing, again, we'd hazard a ballpark figure around the current cost of the Note 3, given that it probably costs around the same to make. None of this is confirmed, mind, and in fact, up until this Evleaks revelation, many had doubted whether the device was even legitimate. But Evleaks is scarcely ever wrong nowadays, so expect to see an official unveiling in the coming days or weeks.

Sears to buy 60 California hardware stores
By BLOOMBERG BUSINESS NEWS
HOFFMAN ESTATES, ILL. — HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill. -- Sears, Roebuck & Co. said yesterday that it will buy Orchard Supply Hardware Stores Corp. for $415 million in cash and assumed debt to help expand its fast-growing chain of hardware stores.
Orchard Supply's 60 stores in California will help Sears carve a niche between Home Depot Inc.'s cavernous stores and mom-and-pop shops, analysts said.
The 115 Sears hardware stores and Orchard Supply focus on homeowners needing small repairs. The warehouse chains aim at complex jobs such as renovations.
The purchase, Sears' largest in at least five years, is part of Chairman Arthur Martinez's effort to shift goods such as tools and furniture into specialized chains from its department stores. That's created new avenues for growth.
"Orchard is right in the center of the target for us," said Martinez. "They have an identical customer and an identical strategy."
Shares in San Jose, Calif.-based Orchard yesterday closed up $5 -- 16.8 percent -- at $34.75 on trading of more than 3 million shares, 76 times its daily average.
Shares in the 19th-largest U.S. home-improvement retailer have more than doubled during the past year.
Sears shares rose 25 cents to 45.675 yesterday.
Sears will pay $35 a share in cash, or about $308 million, in the deal, and will assume Orchard Supply's debt of $107 million.
Sears said it plans to keep the Orchard Supply name. It will also sell its well-known Craftsman line of tools and DieHard batteries and other products at Orchard Supply stores.
Strong service and convenient supermarket-like locations near neighborhoods have helped Orchard Supply compete successfully with bigger warehouse-style chains.
About 75 percent of its stores are in markets with Home Depot and Waban's Inc.'s HomeBase stores.
Orchard Supply said its fiscal second-quarter earnings rose 5 percent while sales jumped 11 percent to $161.9 million. Some analysts had been looking for Orchard's earnings to grow as much as 32 percent annually over the next few years.

Home » TeslaThemes Coupon 2015 – Save 20% with TeslaThemes!
Tesla Themes is relatively new player but have already proved to be able to compete with old players and provide great themes and customer service. Feel free to use our exclusive coupon code to receive 20% off all themes.
This time ww would like to share both TeslaThemes coupon code an its review. Tesla Themes have a snappy homepage, which is always a good start. A badly designed homepage on a site which sells themes is like applying for a CV writing job with a bad CV; it's game over from square one. They present their themes beautifully and they are a lot easier on the eyes than the offerings from Mint Themes. They are bold, eye-catching and look a lot better than most websites you see on the internet by far.
Some of the themes they offer are for a very niche market, which is great when you're looking for something out of the ordinary. The one which stands out most is their 'coming soon' countdown theme, which shows 4 test tubes to represent the seconds, minutes hours and days, filling up with brightly colored liquid accompanied by a timer. The raw simplicity of this design is perfect and would make someone want to check back over time, just because the site is so memorable.
The prices are amazing, almost as good as those of GavickPro. They offer any theme for $35, including support, but they offer every theme they've ever done, plus the promise of 18+ new ones a year, for just $10 more. The developer's package is priced at $65 and offers all the current themes, the same promise of 18+ themes per year on unlimited domains, free weekly updates, technical support, extensive documentation and all of the PSD files. This is a huge amount of freedom for developers and for just $65 it blows Mint Themes out of the water.
All themes also come with the unique 'Tesla Framework' which is an easy to use administrative tool which simplifies the customization and installation process when you're trying to apply their themes. This negates the need for coding, thankfully, and even if you can code it means that you don't have to, you can get the site up and running in a matter of minutes. This is everyone's dream in the world of web, which is fast paced and erratic. You never know when you're going to get hits, so don't waste time with the technical details and have it up as soon as you can.
When you buy a membership package from TeslaThemes, they don't just forget about you. You get a year of support, all of the updates and all of the future themes. You feel as if you are a valued customer as opposed to just a few dollar signs on a screen. Another great thing is that they offer free themes. This gives the user a chance to try out the Tesla Framework and see if it really is as good as they say it is. I tried it out myself and it made things a lot, lot easier.
When browsing their themes, you get the chance to see what a default website with the theme would look like on your screen. This is a good feature, since buyers could be very skeptical about trying before they buy. This feature eliminates any shade of worry and shows you that their themes look exactly as snappy as you think they will.
Tesla Themes also run a blog which is a nice distraction from the main reasons you will be going on their site; business or work. As well as updating the public with news from their organization, they post jokes and lists which are welcome diversions. TeslaThemes are true professionals. Their themes are lovely to look at and won't cost you much at all to get the full library of themes. This certainly beats the deals offered by ThemeForest, where you buy one theme and you take what you are given without complaining.
