During the winter season, CYA offers players with a higher skill level an opportunity to participate in the countywide Fairfax County Youth Basketball League (fcybl.com) -- commonly known as Travel or Select. Travel coaches are re-selected each summer through an interview process. Tryouts are held for travel teams in grades 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th in early October. Players must attend at least 2 tryouts. After tryouts, the coaches select 10-11 players per team. The number of teams per age group is determined by the talent available at tryouts (with a maximum of 3 teams per age group). Practice begins as soon as the teams are selected. This program requires a greater time commitment from participants for practice (3 hours per week) and games (1-2 per week). The FCYBL season runs from mid-November through the beginning of March. Most games are played at gyms across Fairfax County (often outside the Chantilly area) and in Falls Church, Arlington, or Alexandria.
The travel teams are grade-based rather than age-based as they were in the past. This means anyone in the designed grade can participate as long as they are not more than 2 years older than others in that grade as of September 1st of that year. For example, no player on the 6th grade team can be 13 as of September 1st of that year. There are no more age exceptions. All players will be expected to provide documentation of their current grade (report card) along with a Walker ID once selected to a team.
In September, CYA will sponsor open gyms for each travel team grade (5th through 8th), which are open to everyone at the designated age. The travel coaches will supervise the open gyms providing some skills training and running scrimmages. These are an opportunity for kids to get warmed up for the travel tryouts and season. Participation is strictly voluntary.


This month's case study focuses on a client needing to make some big improvements in its inventory of items to be rebilled ---- and fast! Their answer was a brute force approach ---- pulling the regular Billing staff off their normal tasks to research and resolve rebills, and hiring temps to backfill the Billing positions and handle the day-to-day tasks.
Once work started, though, management saw that merely throwing more people at the problem would be insufficient to meet year-end targets. Yes, they needed more people to work the backlog ---- and they needed their staff to be more efficient and effective.
By providing these technology hits, we improved staff efficiency ---- we reduced staff time for the research or rebill activities.
By estimating the dollar impact each technology hit would have, and by ranking these so the biggest ones were implemented first, we improved staff effectiveness ---- we ensured staff did the right activities, and more of them.
Our ideas added an element of finesse to resolving these issues.
As you'll read in the case study, these force and finesse approaches complemented each other perfectly. Together, they yielded nearly a 40% reduction in the items awaiting rebilling, and quickly increased cash receipts.
Our client performs lab tests on patient "draws" of blood and other samples for doctors' offices. Every draw is called an "accession." The entire healthcare industry is notorious for insurance coverage and billing issues.
· Accessions which had been billed, rejected by the insurer, and never researched and re-billed.
These are known collectively as "unbilled accessions" and were having a material negative impact on cash flow.
Resolving unbilled accessions usually requires research by the Billing staff, and then follow-up to personnel in the physician office ---- whether Administration, Medical Records, or the Technician who performed the draw ---- to review the claim, describe the issue, and request additional information. This is a labor-intensive process for both our client and the physician offices.
Our client decided to dedicate its internal Billing staff ---- fully during the week, and also working some weekend days ---- to working down the unbilled accessions, and backfilling the regular Billing staff with temporary staff. Even with this brute force approach, reducing the unbilled accessions to normal levels would not be completed in the timeframe needed by our client. In addition to the volume of unbilled accessions, they were quickly approaching the health insurers' 180-day "timely filing" deadline for many of these claims---- which meant they would not be able to resubmit those particular claims to the insurance company for payment.
by 8,000 to 9,000 per month for the next nine months.
As unbilled accessions steadily increased, cash receipts steadily decreased.
Solution: Create a list of Priority Items, and develop a plan to address those issues.
We worked with our client's Billing, Call Center, and Information Systems personnel to develop a number of process-related and technology-related ideas to improve the productivity of their Billing staff. We then estimated the approximate cost and impact of each idea, ranked it by priority, and presented all these for management consideration.
Management agreed with our top priorities and tasked us with working to implement them quickly. We did so, designing and developing several technology tools and rolling these out over a six-week period. We then monitored the impact of these tools on staff productivity and impact on reducing the inventory of unbilled accessions.
We developed a list of over 24 ideas, grouped by functional area, to reduce unbilled charges ----and, more generally, to improve the entire order-to-cash process. Some of these ideas were "quick hits" meant to address the unbilled charges, while many were medium-term to longer-term ideas meant to reduce the potential for denied or rejected claims ---- which create rebills ----by error-proofing all steps prior to the initial billing.
To help management quickly understand why we gave a particular idea a certain priority ranking, we created a color-coded table plotting the ideas against both their estimated cost and anticipated impact.
Results & Benefits: Unbilled accessions dropped by nearly 40%, and stayed at acceptable levels.
Within three months, the level of unbilled accessions dropped nearly 40% and brought in several hundred thousand dollars of cash ---- just in time for our client's year-end.
Subsequent to year-end, our client went back to its normal staffing for Billing. We then implemented additional ideas which allowed the regular staff to reduce unbilled accessions to acceptable levels.
Combining additional personnel with enhanced technology allowed our client to quickly meet their timeline and cash flow targets.

IBM announced to the world today that they plan to takeover system management software vendor BigFix. The takeover is expected to be completed by the third quarter, and the terms of the deal have not been revealed so far.
Chris Kanaracus from PCWorld.com is reporting that BigFix has a range of modules that covers areas such as power and patch management, and security configurations. This will bring IBM closer to its rivals in data center automation like BMC, CA Technologies and Hewlett-Packard.
At the moment privately owned BigFix has more than 700 customers and employs around two hundred people. The takeover will see the company absorbed into the IBM's Software Group. IBM's Tivoli IT management line is already quite a size but this acquisition could be quite fruitful according to one observer.

Catholic Encyclopedia, Volume 1: Aachen-Assize
by Charles G. Herbermann
This volume belongs to a sixteen-volume encyclopedia set that, as the encyclopedia's preface indicates, was designed "to give its readers full and authoritative information on the entire cycle of Catholic interests, action and doctrine." Unlike other Catholic encyclopedias that came before it, this one does not focus so narrowly on internal Church matters alone. Instead, it, among other things, succinctly explains Catholic doctrine while contrasting it to that of Protestantism, and it documents the accomplishments of Catholics throughout the centuries, including poets, artists, scientists, and public officials. The encyclopedia remains here in its original form, having never gone through a process of updating since its publication starting in 1907.

®Evolution is a trilogy of sci-fi thrillers that reads as quite prophetic in our current world. It reads as a thinly veiled metaphor for racism with a pace and plot that will certainly please fans of the genre. Gemsigns (2013) is the first book, followed by Binary (2014) and Regeneration (2015).
Humanity has been decimated by a plague caused by technology. To ensure its survival, genetically modified humans have been created and assigned to tasks according to their engineered skills. But once the world is finally stabilized, humans realize there are now two races on Earth, one of which is kept in literal slavery by the corporations that engineered them. A bill is passed, to grant them some rights, until a conference determines the future of the gems, the genetically modified humans who are recognizable by their hair color.
The first pages of Gemsigns are a delight to read, and Saulter proves in those first few pages that she knows how to write beautifully. But this elaborated style soon makes way for a more straightforward prose as soon as the plot kicks in. The novel is packed full of action with betrayals, conspiracy plots and extremist nutters, and it will most certainly please anyone looking for a straightforward scifi thriller.
Most of the gems and allies characters are interesting and competently drawn, even if their characteristics and actions are sometimes predictable. The pace is well sustained throughout Gemsigns, broken by a few tricks here and there to bring in the necessary world building elements.
In itself, the plot is far from groundbreaking: marginalized people with allies opposed to big bad corporations and extremists and everyone else in the middle, influenced by social streams and fake news, human pettiness, fear, or a touching story. But it takes a good – if sometimes grim – picture of our current world, even if it takes place about two hundred years in the future. Saulter, a mixed race writer from the UK, certainly tells a powerful story of how we judge and react to someone according to their appearance.
Gemsigns is a very topical story of segregation, violence and racism. It felt like reading our world (with better hair colors), and the message conveyed by the novel may be much needed at the moment.
Though not groundbreaking, Gemsigns has a solid plot with a great pace, interesting characters and is written in a very competent prose. So if thrillers are your thing, and you want a topical novel, then this is one you should definitely pick up.

GeForce Now for Mac announced, offers high-end PC gaming on a Mac
Mac Software How to
How to use GeForce Now on Mac
Gaming on a Mac has always been notoriously difficult, but the introduction of Nvidia GeForce Now could change the Mac gaming landscape forever. Read on to find out more about Nvidia GeForce Now for Mac.
By Lewis Painter | 23 Jan 18
Gaming on a Mac has always been notoriously difficult – many games don't support macOS at all and the ones that do require a decent GPU to run properly. However, the introduction of Nvidia's cloud-based gaming service on macOS could change the Mac gaming landscape forever.
Read on to find out more about Nvidia GeForce Now for Mac, including how to use it and where to download it.
If PC gaming is the aim, find out how else you can run PC games on Mac.
What is GeForce Now?
GeForce Now for PC and Mac is the latest cloud-based offering from Nvidia, first announced at CES 2017 in Las Vegas. If you think that sounds familiar, you'd be right – GeForce Now is a part of Nvidia's Shield TV, allowing gamers to stream an entire library PC games via a set-top box for a monthly fee.
However, the offering for PC and Mac is slightly different. With GeForce Now for Mac, there isn't an existing library of games for gamers to choose from – instead, users link their game libraries via Steam, Battle.net, and other game marketplaces and play games that they own.
The real charm is that all the processing is done by a Nvidia Pascal-powered PC in the cloud, meaning you can run the latest AAA blockbuster games without having to worry about having a low-powered PC, or a Mac (for which many popular games remain unsupported).
Simply download the app onto your Mac, log in to access your library and game on! As it's cloud-based, it also means that you can switch between Macs and PCs without losing any save data, as long as the game supports cloud syncing.
While it's great for budget PC owners, it could really kickstart gaming on Mac for the first time. Macs aren't the machine of choice for gamers as Apple tends to not include the latest Nvidia or AMD-powered graphics cards in its Mac line-up, meaning they'd struggle to power the latest games available for Windows.
However, if the processing is done in the cloud on a Windows PC, it not only gives Mac gamers access to high-end gaming, but also a whole library of games like PUBG that only support PC.
How to install GeForce Now on Mac
So, when can we get our hands on GeForce Now for PC and Mac in the UK? The good news is that it's now available for Mac users across the UK and Europe, but due to unforeseen popularity, you'll have to sign up to a waiting list on the Nvidia website to gain access.
But what about pricing? It has got to be pricey, right? Wrong. Nvidia changed its mind about the coin system it was originally going to implement and has decided not to discuss pricing until the system is perfect.
With that being said, those that use the GeForce Now for Mac beta can do so completely free of charge. Nvidia has assured us that it'll stay that way for the near future, providing a phenomenal opportunity for gamers.
Those interested in testing out the service before general release can do so by heading over to the Nvidia website and clicking "Request Beta Access" at the top of the page – the only requirement is a minimum 25mbps internet connection.
How to use GeForce Now for Mac
While the software is yet to be finalised, we can explain the basics of how the beta version of GeForce Now for Mac works. Once you've gained access and installed the software, you'll be prompted to log in with your Nvidia account, which grants access to your personal GTX-powered cloud PC with your library of games and game saves.
If it's the first time you're signing in/signing up, you'll be prompted to add your game libraries from various online providers including the likes of Steam and Battle.net. From there, simply install the game on your virtual PC and fire it up.
The game will be rendered from your cloud-based PC and delivered to you in real-time, with minimal lag. We've been using GeForce Now on our iMac to play PUBG for a while now, and it provides an impressive game streaming experience.

Musical performance will explore Mennonite stories from the Paraguayan Chaco
Carol Ann Weaver, on piano, accompanies singer Rebecca Campbell during a performance of Paraguay Primeval. (Photo courtesy of Canadian Mennonite University).
Performance: Paraguay Primeval
Date and time: Tuesday, Oct. 29, 7:30 p.m.
Location: Goshen College Music Center's Rieth Recital Hall
Cost: Free and open to the public
Goshen College will host a musical work titled "Paraguay Primeval," a collection of stories and images by Carol Ann Weaver. Based on the extraordinary story of Mennonites moving to Paraguay from Canada in order to retain their own schools, and from Russia to flee the Stalinist regime, the show follows their attempt to find a new "Promised Land" in the uninviting Paraguayan Chaco. The show will take place in the Music Center's Rieth Recital Hall and is free and open to the public.
Enhanced by a multi-media presentation that adds a visual dimension, the performance includes eleven original songs inspired by poets and fiction writers who recorded the Mennonite Paraguayan experience. Exquisitely performed by acclaimed soprano Rebecca Campbell and accompanied on piano and vocals by the composer, Carol Ann Weaver, this performance draws listeners into a world of beauty, sorrow, hardship and grace. The performance will be followed by a reception. CDs will be available for purchase and signing. CD proceeds will go toward work in support of indigenous people in the Chaco.
"My brief visit to the Chaco in July, 2009, following the Mennonite World Conference in Asuncion, Paraguay, was a moving experience," Weaver said. "What stole my heart, while travelling to these colonies, was a sense of incredible dedication to this new land as voiced by these Mennonites in their strong singing. I was particularly struck by a statue of a woman behind a plow, representing women who had lost their husbands during Stalin years in Russia."
In 1926, about 1,200 Canadian Mennonites moved to Paraguay in order to retain their own schools. From 1930 onward they were joined by Russian Mennonite refugees fleeing the Bolshevik Revolution, the Stalinist regime and intolerable situations within the Soviet Union. Once in Paraguay, these Mennonites settled in the Chaco area, described as a "Green Hell" due to arid land, inhabited by few indigenous peoples. The Mennonites suffered typhoid and other illnesses, but nevertheless built colonies, grew crops and maintained livestock, while creating schools, churches, hospitals and industries which lured back many indigenous peoples. The desert brought forth new life.
Carol Ann Weaver, eclectic composer/pianist, creates music that blends many genres, energies, styles and spirits, often colored by her fascination with African music. Her music has been performed and aired throughout Canada, the United States and parts of Europe, Korea, Paraguay and Africa. Her genre-bending music blends classical, jazz, avant garde and folk, resulting in new fusions of roots and art music. While in Africa she has frequently played and recorded with South African jazz artists. Critics laud her work for blending of cultural voices and its embrace of varied styles. Her CDs, Paraguay Primeval, Every 3 Children, Thistle & Jewel, Dancing Rivers, Journey Begun and Daughter of Olapa, deal with African, Canadian and environmental themes, and Awakenings, her collaborative CD with Rebecca Campbell, sets to music poetry of Di Brandt and Dorothy Livesay. She is a music professor at Conrad Grebel University College/University of Waterloo and a former professor at Wilfrid Laurier University. Having led two Sound in the Lands Festival and conferences at Grebel/UW, she is organizing a third one at UW, Sound in the Land – Music and the Environment for June 5-8, 2014.
Rebecca Campbell is one of the most evocative vocalists in Canada, whose versatile musicianship, combined with uncanny vocal sensibilities, gives her a uniquely compelling voice. A Canadian treasure, she has done extensive touring and recording on her own and in support of many artists, including Jane Siberry, Porkbelly Futures, Justin Haynes, Fat Man Waving, Three Sheets to the Wind, Lynn Miles, Ian Tamblyn and Carol Ann Weaver. She has performed across Canada, the United States, Europe and Trinidad-Tobago. Her CDs, "The Sweetest Noise" and "Tug," have received high critical acclaim in Canada and abroad. Her music, which is emotionally rooted, intimate, impressionistic and full of surprises, betrays a disregard for idiomatic boundaries, a love of words and a penchant for the sweet and sad.

Best friends, former Knoxville rivals Lane Thomas, Nick Senzel on MLB collision course
Best friends and former Tennessee high school rivals Lane Thomas and Nick Senzel are on an MLB collision course
Best friends, former Knoxville rivals Lane Thomas, Nick Senzel on MLB collision course Best friends and former Tennessee high school rivals Lane Thomas and Nick Senzel are on an MLB collision course Check out this story on commercialappeal.com: https://www.commercialappeal.com/story/sports/2019/05/31/nick-senzel-cincinnati-reds-lane-thomas-st-louis-cardinals/1194071001/
David Cobb, Memphis Commercial Appeal Published 4:45 p.m. CT May 31, 2019
The day could come as soon as Tuesday, when the St. Louis Cardinals host the Cincinnati Reds in the first of a three-game series.
If not then, Lane Thomas and Nick Senzel appear to be on a collision course that will bring their baseball journeys with humble Tennessee beginnings full-circle soon.
Thomas, who is a starting outfielder for the Memphis Redbirds, has been splitting time between the Redbirds and Cardinals since homering in his first major league at-bat on April 19.
Senzel, also a center fielder, made his MLB debut with the Reds two weeks later and homered three times in his first four games.
That their loud arrivals on the game's biggest stage for division rivals came so close together is only fitting, considering they are just two months apart and starred at rival high schools in Knoxville.
"It's pretty wild," Thomas said. "I thought he was for sure going to beat me up there. He kind of dealt with some injuries, and I dealt with some early on. It's kind of cool to see him go through some adversity and overcome it. We still talk a couple times a week."

Small stature, big games
Ask John Rice, who coached Thomas at Bearden, or Matt Buckner, who coached Senzel at rival Farragut, and both will tell you that Thomas and Senzel always possessed the drive and the skill to be elite players.
But both lacked the stature when they arrived in their respective high school programs.
"When they were younger, they were both small," Buckner said. "Lane was skinny as anything in high school. Nick, until he was a junior and senior, was really tiny. They were just exceptionally skilled athletes."
But the 2012 season made it clear: two stars had arrived on the Tennessee high school baseball scene.
Thomas, then a sophomore, and Senzel, a junior, squared off four times that season with Farragut winning the first three meetings before Bearden claimed a pivotal 10-7 win in a region championship meeting.
A friendship forged through playing summer ball together lasted through the tension of the Bearden-Farragut meetings.
"He was definitely a rival during the games," Thomas said. "But it was like everybody came to my house after the games, you know what I mean? We hated each other during the game, but then we were hanging out after the games. So it was cool."
Divergent paths

Thomas committed to play at Tennessee, partially drawn by the chance to play with Senzel, who went on to a standout career for the Volunteers.
Ultimately, though, Thomas turned pro after the Blue Jays took him in the fifth round of the 2014 draft.
"It was just a little different situation for each of us and how our families were and stuff," Thomas said.
While Senzel tore up the Southeastern Conference, Thomas fought for opportunities amid injury setbacks in the Blue Jays' farm system before he was traded to the Cardinals.
Cincinnati took Senzel second overall in the 2016 draft, and his path to the majors soon took health-related detours, too.
But their journeys converged again this season.
Major league debut
Rice, who had never coached a player who made the big leagues before this season, tried to keep quiet as he watched the Cardinals' game against the Mets on April 19.
As a father of three young children, he worked to mitigate his reaction as Thomas stepped to the plate for his first MLB at-bat against New York's Seth Lugo.
Then, Thomas took an 0-1 breaking ball deep to right field for a home run.
"The screaming and running around the house wasn't like it would have been as a single guy because I didn't wake anybody up," Rice said. "But it was probably the most amazing thing I could have ever imagined for one of my former guys."
The moment earned Thomas a curtain-call at Busch Stadium and bragging rights with Senzel.
"It was incredible," Thomas said. "It's kind of how you play it in your head when you're little. And I got to see my family up there and stuff, so that was the best part, too, just seeing them after the game and celebrating."
Senzel's time to shine came soon after.
In his fourth game with the Reds on May 6, Senzel homered twice.
For Buckner, who has seen other players he coached at Farragut reach the major leagues, one of the most impressive parts of Senzel's journey has been his defense.
While Senzel's offense is his calling card — he extended his on-base streak to 18 games on Thursday — his versatility in the field is also turning heads.
After playing third base at Tennessee, Senzel moved to the outfield late last year.
"They have moved him around like crazy," Buckner said. "I think it's very difficult. For him to be able to do it speaks pretty highly of his athleticism. Nick had never played outfield prior to six months ago. Ever. So he goes from never playing outfield until last fall to starting in the major leagues in center field. That's not something that happens every day."
Now, the former district rivals play the same position for MLB division rivals.
While Senzel has cemented his place on Cincinnati's roster, Thomas is still waiting for a steady opportunity behind a veteran group of St. Louis outfielders.
But one day soon, the long-time friends and rivals will meet again.
"It'll be pretty cool," Thomas said. "It'll definitely be an exciting thing to soak in. But I'm not going to let him get a hit out there. I'll say that."

Seven years before each Olympics Games a new host is named as a new city immediately begins to prepare for their chance to be on display for the world. One of the biggest things most see is a new plan come into effect as cities begin building. They begin building new stadiums and new infrastructure to get people to the stadiums. Then they begin preparing throughout the city building the hype and getting the people of the city and the country to rally behind them as they enter the international spotlight. As the city prepares and the fans get excited there is another aspect of the preparation goes on more behind the scenes. This preparation is inside the sports federations for the country to host. As the Olympics are announced the home country sports programs kick into high gear with every sport looking to make their impact in the Olympics. The host country wants to collect as many medals as possible to give all fans something to cheer about. The last thing that any country wants to do is underperform in any event that is performed in front of the home crowd. This does not mean that the home country expects a gold at every event but finishing near the top of the medal standings is an accomplishment. Some countries need little in terms of investment as they already have strong sports programs but many more do not. This was the case in 2005 when London learned they would be hosting the 2012 Olympic Games. From that moment the British Olympic Committee began preparing as they were looking to have a great showing in their home Olympics. The 2008 Olympics saw the beginning of this transformation as Team GB collected 47 medals and finished in 4th place in the medal table. This was a 17 medal boost from their 30 medal performance and 10th place finish in 2004, before they won the Olympic bid. After 2008 Team GB looked to continue improving as they looked to get even better for 2012 as they continued to invest in the summer sports. As the games approached not much was known about how well they would perform with many athletes getting face time in front of the public but only a few having a real shot at Gold. When the Olympics started, though, the British showed that they were not going to disappoint their home fans. Team GB earned some medals but they were not earning too many to launch them up the medal standings. That all changed when the Velodrome opened on Day 6 of the games. Since then the British team have won multiple medals every day. This included earning all but one Gold medal in these events in the last three days. Day 8 saw a different beast of Team GB though as they had been starving for a track and field medal for years. They built up a number of athletes before the games that had a shot at the Olympic Gold that fans wanted. In Day 8 the fans got their wish as Jessica Ennis earned the first track gold for Britain in the Heptathlon. For Ennis it was a major accomplishment as she became one of the major faces of the London games and had all of the pressure on her over the seven events. Ennis won the gold on a great day but Day 8, known as Super Saturday, was just getting started. Just after Ennis won another British athlete made his impact as Greg Rutherford won yet another gold for Britain in the Men's Long Jump. Rutherford added to a good hall for the British on the day but then it was not over. As Rutherford celebrated his gold medal in front of the crowd another face of the games was competing on the track. Mo Farah has been alongside Ennis for years leading up to the games as one of the main faces of Team GB who were looked to for the London Games. Farah spent most of the race among the leaders and as he rounded the last corner pulled away to end the race with another gold for Britain. It was a day where the home crowd had plenty to cheer for with three gold in athletics and another gold in the Velodrome. It was a day that highlighted the commitment made by Team GB when London got the games as they continue to roll in third place in the medal standings with a week left in competition to give them even more opportunity to impress on the national stage.
The Canadian Story
Canada's First Gold
Canada had to wait 8 days for their first medal in 2008 but in 2012 it was 8 days until the first gold as Rosannagh MacLennan picked up Canada's first gold medal in the games as the new Olympic champion in women's trampoline
Drought Ends in the Velodrome
Canada had struggled in the Velodrome but it was shattered on Day 8 when the women's team earned the Bronze in Team Pursuit becoming the first ever bronze medalists in the event after it was added for 2012
Cochrane Makes it two in the Pool
In 2008 the Canadians only earned one medal in swimming with Ryan Cochrane winning bronze but in 2012 the total was doubled as Cochrane repeated his medal performance in the 1,500m and improved it to a silver
Findlay Disappointed but inspiring
Paula Findlay started the day off rough for Canada as she finished in last place in the women's triathlon but the story was an inspirational one as she wanted to drop out during the run when her doctor told her to finish which she did making Canadians proud

Pompeo called for Taliban-Afghan government peace talks
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has called for talks between the Afghan government and the Taliban.
Speaking in an interview with Fox News released on Friday, Pompeo said that the US has made some progress both with the Afghan government and the Taliban.
As US has held five rounds of talks with the Taliban, Pompeo said there is no deal at this point.
"We don't have final resolution there but we are working towards a political reconciliation. We've been hard at it Ambassador Khalilzad has been on the ground in Doha for six or eight days back I think yesterday," Pompeo said.
He said that US President Donald Trump had made clear that his objective in Afghanistan is to end the "endless war."
"But he wants to do it in a way that we don't increase risk to the United States from terror acts coming from Afghanistan," Pompeo said.
Pompeo also said that the US was not dealing from weakness.
"We're not naive. We know precisely who it is we're sitting across the table from whether that's in Korea or Iran or in. Afghanistan. We know who these people are and we're picking points where America can be more secure," Pompeo said.
Asked about Pakistan which is accused of supporting the Taliban, Pompeo called on the country to do more. "They have to stop harbouring this terror," Pompeo said.

Talking Good Gear, ISPO Munich Winter 2014
In Tools
Talking exploratory everyday and adventure in the average life is talking for being over buying. Yet, some of the thoughts have been pushed forward by gear, and good gear makes the enjoyment of the outdoors and the readiness for adventure in the everyday much higher…
On the way to ISPO 2014. Like a pilgrimage of the outdoor biz…
Nowhere better to find out what's happening in that world than at the ISPO (except perhaps at the Outdoor Retailer – OR – show that also just took place ;) ). Like the OutDoor Friedrichshafen, it's among the biggest trade fairs in the sports and outdoor sectors. Miles upon miles of stalls, two entire halls dedicated to 'sourcing' (which feel like one big "welcome back to China"), and stands by brands established and brand-new, large and small.
It's always an experience, and always quite exhausting – and it didn't help that I only had time to go there by night train and return in the night of the same day…
Suunto Ambit2R
Suunto, since the devices they make are my main guidance in training and ultras, was the essential first stop. Finally, the forthcoming Ambit 2R was being presented.
It basically dumbs down the Ambit 2S to only the essentials for running (but including running cadence on the wrist and training plans and guidance on the watch… which will also come to the Ambit 2 and Ambit 2S via software updates after the 2R's release, around March/April) and brings the price point down to around €/$300 (including HR strap, subject to change).
Salomon, who again (like on the OutDoor last summer) hosted the minuscule display for Suunto at their booth, had a Sense 3 Ultra on display, and has some nice products for trail runners coming… Still find myself tempted by the SnowCross, especially now that winter has finally come.
Arc'teryx's Endorphin collection continues without major news, but includes the Trino jacket and tights which are the next pieces I'd love to test – running clothes with Windstopper panels in front and a more breathable material in other areas, which may be a step up in the difficult balance between protection and comfort from the full (or no) Windstopper that I currently use. (The area I live in most of the time is constantly windy, and often-enough cold, so that good wind protection is absolutely essential. Take this plus a necessarily thrifty attitude, and I'm still running in Mountain Hardwear Windstopper tops which they haven't been making for yeears…)
As it were, Arcteryx was the main draw for me because of their Veilance line, which is only too firmly in the luxury market because of the prices, but has many a piece that combines savvy urban style with technical features and materials, making it ideal for the everyday explorer. You'll be hearing more about that in the future…
The interesting mix that the ISPO offers lies with both big and small brands that can be found.
CW-X at the ISPO Munich
Big or small, CW-X (my favorite when it comes to running tights due to their compressing/supporting "ExoWeb") was there. It's a company that has established itself very well in the USA but not here in Europe, even as compression wear for running has become more popular here. Meaning that their products are difficult to get here. (I have been in touch with them about this for a while – and there's finally a German distributor – so it was nice to see them there and meet people hitherto only known via e-mail.)
The only problem I have with them now: The new Endurance Generator tights really do look enticing…
When it comes to wearable technology and training guidance, to continue the theme of big and small, there wasn't just Suunto and the Ambit family (which is, by now, what it's officially called). There was also Polar with the V800 and the Loop, of course.
(Impressions? Both pretty well wearable, though I personally have misgivings about all the life tracking wristbands. I'll wear a watch on my wrist, a wedding band on my finger, but not any sort of wrist strap, be that Livestrong band or Loop tracker – even as I think the Loop's capability to also track HR, provided one wear a compatible HR chest strap, is quite interesting.
The V800 seems pretty well wearable, not too bulky or big – though it's not a small watch, of course – and with well thought-out features. The recovery taking into account constant activity, not just the training, is something that has really been missing so far. A combination like a Suunto for training and a FitBit for the everyday works to give an impression, but it's not the same as a combined calculation… The way the display switches via a roll-in effect is rather too gimmicky for me, though; the vibration (which so many people call for the Ambits to get) rattled the watch I had in my hands in a way that wasn't confidence-inspiring; and I suffer the problem I usually find directed at Suunto devices: when you are used to the way one brand's devices function, another one's devices aren't exactly intuitive. Wouldn't mind testing one, but I'm not DC Rainmaker…)
But then, there was also sense core. Their product is not available yet, but the "dry electrodes" they build into different wearables (from triathlon suits to mere chest bands) promise to record a 22h day of ECG data, respiration, body temperature and kinetics, with the software to analyze it and a simpler version for non-professional athletes in the works. Lots of data, and if the dry electrodes work as well as they are supposed to (without need for having them be moist, also able to record while swimming, etc.), this technology promises to be very interesting for the sports-tracking data freak.
ISPO 2014 Fashion Show
Where the major brands put on fashion shows and had some great displays – and they are, of course, the main reason for a fair like this, it's all about the (pretty volatile, it seems) market, after all – the real stand-out for me were the small and sometimes start-up brands that were also present.
One example of the knitting… (Love the loom they have on the poster.)
Merino wool continued to be a major trend, but all-too-often, only for hats and not for clothing. Still nice to see, and there tends to be some interest in performance as well as environmental impacts – even as much of the wool continues to come only from New Zealand and be turned into garments only in China.
All the more interesting to also find "performance cashmere" from Scotland.
Not wool, but high-tech and attention-getting for me: the base layers from WarmWild which get a coating of bioceramics in Japan before being sewn into garments in Italy, and are supposed to keep comfortably warm or cool in a temperature range between -35C and +35C. Given my recent running, that would be just the thing…
Or, how about handmade skis in beautifully 'furnished' wood from Italy?
Foil Handmade Skis
There was a lot to discover. Only too much, in fact. Too much of it is also just trying to stoke the consumerist fire and turn a quick profit – but, that's just how and why I'll be talking more about good gear in future, to present what's really interesting and worth it for getting at home, not just going broke while 'stuffocating'…

Legion honour for Joan
Published: 7:14 PM February 6, 2012 Updated: 11:17 AM November 7, 2020
Former Honiton health visitor presented with a badge and certificate of merit.
Joan Sinden, the former secretary of the Women's Section of the Honiton branch of the Royal British Legion, has been honoured for her service.
The former health visitor was presented with a badge and certificate of merit by the section's vice president, Margaret Robson, during a meeting at Honiton Methodist Church today (Monday).
Although she has retired as secretary, Joan still represents Honiton at county and group meetings.
She has been a member of the women's section since 1986 and has worked tirelessly for the Legion in Honiton.
The section has relocated to the Methodist Church following the closure of the Legion's headquarters in Dowell Street.
Popular afternoon bingos are still held monthly - but in the Mackarness Hall.
