Perma-Liner installers In Deerfield Beach stop backups and leaks in 4 hours. No Digging & 50-year warranty. http://www.craftsmanpipelining.com/st-petersburg-pipe-lining-service-prevents-sewer-drain-excavation-costly-downtime-and-mess/
Looking For Perma-Liner Installers In Deerfield Beach
Are your sewer pipes backing up from root infestation, or from missing pipe floors or broken sewer pipes? Are your apartment roof rain drains leaking into walls of condominiums? Modern pipe lining installs a new pipe inside of the old pipe. It only takes 3 hours, has a 50 year warranty and is as strong as repiping with new pipe. The internal diameter is only reduced by 5%. We only need one entry point to install the new pipe liner, usually from a rooftop or a small access hole dug outside the building. Compared to old-fashioned excavation, this new inner pipe is cheaper, faster and cleaner.
Advantages Of Using Perma-Liner Installers For Trenchless Pipe Repair
Speed: cured in place pipe lining takes hours not weeks
Cost: since no walls, basements, floors, driveways and landscaping is destroyed, Naples trenchless pipe repair is cheaper than digging and replacing pipe
Cleanliness: No pipe repair excavation mess inside apartments, factories, hospitals and commercial buildings
No downtime costs: restaurant pipe rehab and CIPP in other commercial facilities allows the continued operation and no economic loss
Almost Any Pipe Can Be Relined
Pipe lining can be used in high rise vertical sewer pipes and rain drains, underground cast iron and clay sewer pipes, cooling tower or chiller pipes. For deteriorating culvert pipes or storm drains that are experiencing sand infiltration or have started to collapse, pipe lining permanently restores the functionality of the pipe so that no more ground settlement occurs in Naples.
No Excavation Needed!
Every property owner, city and municipality is eventually faced with the choice to replace or rehabilitate the plumbing systems. The true cost of pipe replacement includes not just materials and labor, but the cost of pipeline downtime, bypass pumping, alternate accommodation for property inhabitants, cleanup after excavation and subjective matters like unsanitary conditions during sewer pipe excavation, relocation inconvenience, and time taken to complete pipe replacement.
Trenchless Pipelining Is Faster, Cleaner & Less Expensive
With trenchless pipe lining high rise tenants can stay in their condos, offices can continue operating, 24-hour production facilities can schedule brief downtimes, residents in homes do not need to move out, and there is no cleanup after the pipe relining. The pipe rehabilitation takes hours not weeks, and costs a fraction of the expense of pipe replacement.
Rock Hard, Tough Pipe Lining Materials
Some of our pipe lining materials have an engineered life of 100 years! Depending on the type of pipe being restored, the pipe lining materials are approved by the EPA, NSF and a host of other regulatory bodies. These agencies require that the manufacturers have their pipe lining materials tested by an independent engineering firm to verify that quality standards are maintained. So our warranties are up to 50 years in duration.
About Our Trenchless Pipe Lining Company — Yelp Review
Our Naples trenchless pipe lining company is the only pipe replacement contractor that offers a complete array of pipe rehabilitation techniques for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
Pipe Lining Installtion Process
The pipe lining contractor uses a water jetter or mechanical pipe cleaning brushes, remove all scale and corrosion deposits causing drain pipe backups in your broken underground sewer pipes
Then the pipe lining company uses a video camera to inspect the sewer plumbing pipes and gets a distance measurement for the trenchless underground pipelining
The pipe liner is cut to length and 100% epoxy resin is mixed and used to saturate the pipe sleeve thoroughly
The new pipe liner is installed and allowed to harden under air pressure against the walls of the broken leaking pipe
After 3 hours the new pipe liner has formed a new pipe inside the old pipe and the Perma-Liner Installers trenchless pipe process is complete.

Another weekend, another fight at a NASCAR race. This one involved two Richard Childress Racing crewmen who were arrested early Saturday morning after police say they started a fight with a driver from a rival team.
According to AOL Sporting News, crew members Michael Searce, 50, and Thomas Costello, 35, have both been charged with misdemeanor assault. They have since been released from jail.
The fight was apparently sparked by an on-track confrontation during Friday's Nationwide Series race between driver Nelson Piquet Jr. and RCR driver Brian Scott, which can be seen in the video above (once again described on the official NASCAR YouTube page with two exclamation marks after the word "fight.")
Scott confronted Piquet for crashing into him, and when they returned to the pit road, Piquet shoved Scott and kicked him in the groin.
The Los Angeles Times reports that after that scuffle occurred, the RCR crew members confronted Piquet and a group of others in the motorhome area. This led to their arrests on the assault charges. One person was injured, but Piquet was not.
It's been a fight-y season for NASCAR so far. Just last month a fight broke out between Joey Logano and Denny Hamlin's crew at a Sprint Cup race.
Somehow, I don't think that promoting this kind of thing on YouTube is really what the sport needs, but what do I know.

Waves in the Coconut Water Market
Epicurex, LLC is poised to enter the coconut water market with its newest health drink, Cocozia. Cocozia is a Kosher, USDA Organic Certified, Non-GMO Project Verified all-natural health drink that will boast a high electrolyte content, no added sugars, and zero fat.
"We love giving people alternatives that are healthy and great tasting," said Wade Nevill, VP of Marketing for Epicurex, LLC. "And Cocozia is a perfect example. It tastes great, it's refreshing, and best of all, it's completely free from anything artificial. That's exactly the kind of choice we want to provide our customers."
Cocozia is being billed as a healthy and natural alternative to soft drinks and energy drinks that are heavy in preservatives, fat, and sugar. Coconut water is naturally free of fats, and is chock-full of the electrolytes Magnesium and Potassium, with Calcium and Sodium also included. In fact, you'll find the same amount of potassium drinking a glass of coconut water as you will by eating a couple of bananas.
And while Epicurex will in part be marketing Cocozia to athletes and sports aficionados, it has also set its sights on those health-conscious consumers that are becoming much more aware of the potential consequences of genetically modified and processed foods. "We see a growing demand for products that are strictly non-GMO," said Mr. Nevill. "We wanted to assure our Customers that Cocozia is 100% all-natural. That's why we are Non-GMO Project Verified. The coconuts we use have no artificial growth hormones, nor have any other ingredients been genetically altered."
Because Epicurex is intent upon keeping Cocozia preservative-free, it has joined forces with Tetra Pak, which states that by using its packaging products remain "…shelf safe without the need for any preservatives…." This alliance will assure that Cocozia contains no GMOs and other artificial substances.
Epicurex will be promoting Cocozia through a wide range of channels, and expects it to be a strong performer in the coconut water marketplace. Cocozia will join a growing list of USDA-approved organic beverages that are either distributed or directly manufactured by Epicurex.
About Epicurex LLC
Epicurex LLC is a manufacturer and distributor of exotic beverages. The company focuses on bringing unique and original all-natural organic drinks to its Customers. The company's mission is to provide only top grade products that taste great and contribute a lot to a healthy lifestyle.

Is The Brain On Drugs, Or Are Drugs On The Brain?
Courier Special Series: The Truth About Drugs In Valley County
This is Part 2 of a series of articles focusing on educating the community about drug use in Valley County.
It's a chicken or the egg question. Which came first? Do drug users develop mental problems or do drug users use drugs to deal with their mental problems? The simple answer from most law enforcement, mental health service workers and chemical dependency counselors is both.
It's hard to say why a person might try drugs for the first time. Maybe they're under pressure from friends who are doing it, maybe they're looking for an escape from all their problems, or maybe they just want to experiment. One thing that is found with both alcohol and drug users is that one brain reacts the differently to the same chemicals.
Elizabeth "Liza" Dyrdahl is a licensed clinical professional counselor. She was licensed in March 1999 and has been working in Eastern Montana since July 1998. She's been in Plentywood, Wolf Point and Glasgow. She's also a licensed addict counselor. Her dual licenses help her serve an important role in this part of Montana.
"We see everything in Valley County, different diagnosis, different ages; we're rural mental health, it's just like an ER. We take everyone who walks in," Dyrdahl said.
When it comes to substance abuse, she said that alcohol has always been a constant but there have been periods of time where meth has become a bigger issue. She said that substances don't discriminate – in particularly meth, as it will be found in all economic classes, all ages and races of clients they visit with.
Dyrdahl said that a drug will affect each person differently. How much a person uses, how long they use a substance and genetics could determine the outcome. Children of addicts have a higher percentage to become an addict themselves and the environment of an individual could also add to the likelihood of abusing substances.
LeeAnn Pekovitch of the Glasgow Police Department is somewhat of an expert on chemicals and addictive substances. She went to college and got her degrees in criminal justice and forensic chemistry. She eventually went on to complete her master's degree, and her thesis focused on forensic surface contamination. You might worry about surface contamination in a house or car that was turned into a meth lab.
"Meth is a chemical that leaves traces even when it's gone," Pekovitch said. "It also is easily absorbed into the skin."
She's been helping with educational conferences for other law enforcement, educating kids and the community about drugs and their effects in the Glasgow area. Before she came to Glasgow, Pekovitch worked in Minot, N.D., and did chemical research on street drugs. She was funded through a federal grant and her focus on meth has helped educate others on the drug. She came to Glasgow in 2011 and started working full time last year.
While she's been hired on to help with patrols and investigations, she's continuing to educate the public on the effects of drugs. She explained that all drugs have benefits and aren't entirely bad. Problems tend to stem from long-term use and overuse. Many drugs that started out to help for medical reasons have become abused substances over time.
"I want to help kids make an informed decision, they need to know how drugs might affect them," Pekovitch said.
Marijuana might have some benefits with anxiety and other disorders but not everyone will receive those benefits. Studies have also proven that long-term use of the drug can cause depression and anxiety. A study was published in General Psychiatry that labeled the cannabis, a hallucinogen drug, as the third most widely used addictive substance, under tobacco and alcohol. More than 16 million Americans use cannabis on a regular basis with many starting to use the drug in their teenage years. The study also found that the substance has ties to psychotic illness. The study that was released in February 2011 also found that cannabis was related to earlier age at onset of psychotic distorters.
Pekovitch explained that meth was created was created for medical purposes as well. It was created to make super soldiers, to treat patients with Alzheimer's and to give housewives an extra boost of energy. While the short term effects might seem enticing the long term effects can be devastating.
"Things won't feel the same. You'll get a flatness in the effect. You'll never feel the same euphoric joy again," Pekovitch said.
Never being able to feel joy naturally and permanently could be a potential long term affect from heavy drug use. While not every person will become addicted the first time they use drugs, there's always a chance they could. Pekovitch compared it to a person trying a cigarette for the first time. They might never try it again, while others will continue to smoke. Some may smoke for a year and quit without any problems and others will fight their addiction to tobacco for years to come.
When you look into the brain and the body and search for how the drug is affecting you, it could vary to each person. Chemicals like dopamine and serotonin are affected with the use of drugs. These are chemicals that might control sleep, depression, anxiety and other functions. The problems facing adults is that drugs like marijuana today is not the weed they smoked 30 years ago. Meth currently in the area is more pure than in the past. Time-released prescription drugs are being misused and creating overdoses.
"We don't live in Mayberry anymore," Pekovitch said. "Kids are facing bigger choices today."
The best defense against youth using drugs is parents and the community educating themselves on drugs and what to look for. Valley County Attorney Nickolas Murnion has been giving presentations to the community as well on the effects of drugs. He's been doing a lot of research on how drugs like marijuana might be effecting the youth. He also believes that educating high school kids on drugs is too late because kids in junior high and middle school are of the age when rebellion starts.
"I'm seeing the use of marijuana at the age of 12 in many of my cases," Murnion said. "Brain chemistry isn't as talked about as the focus on the body and looking good with kids."
He explained that he's done some presentations to local clubs and high schools during Red Ribbon Week, but prevention has to come from the community and parents. Trying to reach children before they begin to experiment with drugs could keep them from incarceration or later treatment for substance addictions.
"A partnership with the public is important," Murnion said.
So what do parents and the community need to look for? Dyrdahl explained that trying to help those addicted to substances is a difficult task, especially if they don't want to get help or they can't admit they have a problem. She said that those who can keep an open mind and attend Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous have found success. Looking to those outside their comfort zone and learning skills to help with early recovery in their outpatient program can help those who are already addicted to substances.
Pekovitch says that parents should keep an eye on strange behavior. Empty pill packets and cough syrup bottles can be a sign they are abusing substances. If anyone comes across plastic bottles with liquids of unknown substances should call the police department.
The answer that all these local experts suggest is preventing use of a substance and getting educated. Pekovitch said that parents and community members should be asking questions. If they want to know something they are welcome to come in and ask.
Those facing a mental health crisis can call the Eastern Montana Community Mental Health Center in Glasgow at 406-228-9349. The center provides substance abuse and dependency services, as well as assessment. The clinic also provides outpatient care, intensive outpatient care and continuing car for those in need.
Next week: Understand how drug offenders are processed through the court system in Glasgow and Valley County. Take a look at what the costs are for the jail and the county when dealing with drug offenders.

STEVENS PASS Three members of the Loup Ski Team competed well at the U12 championships last weekend and wrapped up the season.
Eva Weymuller of Winthrop finished 16th in her first-ever super G on Friday, coach Bret Alumbaugh said.
"With a field of 150-plus racers, the Loup skiers had a great weekend," Alumbaugh said. "They battled rain, slush and big ruts on the courses."
Weymuller finished 18th in a girls giant slalom Saturday.
Olivia Glenn of Twisp, who is in U10 and was skiing up a division, finished 51st.
Aiden Catlin of Twisp finished 21st on the boys side in the giant slalom.
Weymuller was 18th in the slalom on Sunday. Glenn was 39th.
Catlin was 17th in the boys slalom.
"All three skiers are the youngest in their age groups and will be back next year for another run in the U12 championships," Alumbaugh said.
The Loup's U14 skiers will finish their season in the Buddy Werner Championships this weekend at Crystal Mountain.

Senator Lieberman Tries Hunting Down Terrorist Videos On YouTube
from the easier-than-finding-real-terrorists dept
This seems particularly silly for a variety of reasons. First off, it's most likely that these types of videos are preaching to the choir. It's hard to see too many folks watching some poorly produced al-Qaeda propaganda videos and suddenly deciding to join up. But, more importantly, by leaving these videos out in the open, it allows lots of folks to respond to them, criticize them and show them up for the awful propaganda they represent. In other words, why be scared of these videos when you can actually respond? Trying to force them offline suggests that we don't think we can win the argument (and even helps to legitimize those who put up the videos). If these videos are promoting ignorant propaganda, the best response is to rebut, refute or even ridicule them -- not bury them. Finally, leaving the videos up gives the government an excellent way to track what the groups are doing, rather than having their actions hidden away on other sites. If they got taken offline by Google/YouTube it would be a matter of minutes before they showed up on other sites where it might even be more difficult for US officials to track them and see what messages terrorists are spreading. Weren't we fighting against terrorists to stand up for principles like free speech and the belief that speech can be a weapon against propaganda?

It's the time of year when many Britons might be thinking of hopping on a plane to get some sun. But Andy Ross won't be joining them.
It's not that Mr. Ross is scared of flying. Instead, he is trying to make the world a cooler place. By cutting out leisure flights and adopting a host of other measures, he has reduced his own carbon emissions by more than 80 percent in two years.
More important, Ross has not been acting alone. Determined to make a difference, he has pioneered a movement of scores of Britons who are voluntarily rationing their energy usage to limit their carbon footprint.
Carbon rationing action groups, or CRAGs, are proliferating across the country (www.carbonrationing.org.uk) and have recently spread to the United States and Canada. Ross reckons there are about 16 up and running in Britain and a similar number in formation. Each has up to a dozen members who meet regularly to swap tips, set targets, and agree to rules on how to shrink their carbon footprints.
"It's empowering," says Ross, "because it makes you feel like you're doing something rather than sitting on the side carping about it."
So how do CRAGs work? The idea is that everyone in the group voluntarily adheres to a carbon ration. Members supply the group's "carbon accountant" with details of their car mileage, household bills, and any personal air travel. This is then converted into CO2 emitted using simple online conversion tools.
Most of the British groups are taking, as a point of reference, an average CO2 emission for 2005 of about 5 metric tons (or 5.5 tons – roughly comprising 2.5 metric tons on home energy use, 1.5 metric tons on flying, and 1 metric ton on driving). Some are reducing their emissions by 10 percent each year. And some have set up a system of fines such that "overemitters" must pay about 4 pence (8 cents) for every kilo over ration that they emit.
Cheap? Not at all. In the Islington CRAG in North London, Doug Angus flew to South America and had to pay around £200 (about $400) as a result. The same thing happened in Ross's group. The money is either divided up among other members or donated to green causes.
Skeptics point out that there are too few craggers currently to make a difference. But craggers themselves say their action is an important demonstration of public will. Scientists are calling for an 80-percent cut in greenhouse-gas emissions by 2050 to stop the world from overheating, but many governments are lagging behind the curve, fearful that the public is not ready for austerity measures.
CRAGs "make it much harder for governments to say people would never accept carbon rationing," says George Monbiot, a prominent British environmental campaigner whose 2005 speech calling for a "riot of austerity" inspired Ross to pursue the idea.
"If people are doing it voluntarily, then it really puts the government on the defensive," Mr. Monbiot adds.
CRAGs also provide a forum for members to swap tips about carbon-reduction measures. Aside from the obvious (turning down the thermostat, switching off appliances at the wall, and fitting energy-saving light bulbs), craggers swear by insulation, new efficient boilers, and solar panels for heating water. Many have given up flying, and some have sold their cars.
"I'm getting my windows replaced, I've replaced the fridge because it was a major consumer of electricity, and I'm switching to a laptop because it saves 80 percent of the energy" used for a desktop, says John Ackers of the Islington CRAG. "I'm putting on more clothes during the winter as well."
Shannon Moore, who set up one of the first American CRAGs in Maryland, says that her craggers have taken to public transport, car-sharing, drying racks, insulation, reduced driving, and properly inflated tires. "The group is coming up with new ideas all the time about how the average person can cut their carbon emissions," she says.
Significantly, the 40 Maryland craggers have a target this year of just under 11,000 kilograms (about 12 tons) – more than double that of their British counterparts.
Ross is now considering taking things one step further by moving from his one-bedroom Glasgow flat to sharing with friends. Cohabitants get a full carbon ration, so emissions are divided up.
Everyone, it seems, is pulling on extra layers. "We wear more jumpers," says Angela Raffle of the Bristol CRAG. "It's not a hardship compared to what will happen if we don't do something." Anna Plodowski, from south London, doesn't even have central heating. Not that it seems to bother her daughter. "She can play for hours wearing next to nothing, and I'm wearing all these jumpers [sweaters]. She feels it much less than I do."
The impression one gets, even after a mild winter, is of hardy types huddling in their sweaters while the vast majority just turn up the thermostat a few notches. And herein lurks a problem with CRAGs. The danger of such voluntarism can be that the selfless merely create ecological space for others to fill.
As Monbiot puts it, "you can give up your car, but unless there's a government policy to make sense of that decision, all you might be doing is creating space on the road for someone to drive a less efficient car than you were."
Ms. Plodowski sees it slightly differently. She believes that because CRAGs ensure that everyone is treated fairly, they deal with a problem at the heart of the climate crisis: that people are reluctant to act because they think others will spoil their efforts by not joining in.
"CRAGs can go mainstream," she says, "because ideas of fairness are important to human behavior."
Already, CRAG leaders say their groups are reaching out well beyond the core constituency of the "green ghetto." Ms. Raffle says her group consists of engineers, teachers, doctors, and retirees. "We are the opposite of your stereotypical environmentalists," she says.
But Ross, the cragger pioneer, is unsure whether CRAGs will appeal to everyone. "It's very difficult to expect people to do something voluntarily which is so countercultural," he says regretfully.

When you become a student at Pacific Union College, a PUC email address is automatically created for you. This is your primary source of campus news, information about events, and the critical link between you and your advisor and teachers. You, like most students, may already have an email address long before you arrive at PUC (Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo Mail, iCloud, etc.). You are now responsible to read your PUC email as well. If you don't, you will be missing important information. Some common misperceptions about PUC email include:
If you are a current student, or have been accepted at PUC your email address is your first initial, middle initial and last name plus "@puc.edu". (Additional letters of your name will be added if that username is already taken.) For example the student John Fitzgerald Kennedy would be firstname.lastname@example.com.
If you are a returning student, your password is the same as what it was previously. If you are a new student or have forgotten your password a new one will have to be generated through PUC's Account Management portal.
NOTE: This system will send reset/creation instructions to the non PUC email address submitted to PUC on your application. If you no do not remember that email address or longer have access to it you will need to Contact ITSS.
To use your email address, go to www.puc.edu, and at the top of the webpage, click on "webmail". You can also use an email client program such as Microsoft Outlook, Apple Mail, or other software to check your mail.

IVhorseman wrote:wait... THAT is how SP works? How the hell was that so hard to figure out?
SP: No more complicated SP points and effect purchasing tables. Now you ust buy SP dice, with a CP cost equal to half their number of faces plus one. (E.g., +3cp per d4, +7cp per d12, etc.)
Each die may be used once per turn for instantaneous effects (i.e., a die used to boost Armor only protects against a single attack or grouped attack; it doesn't boost armor for the full turn), and the effects are strictly limited to the Super unit's Super Cliche.
Each die can be assigned to add or subtract inches or points to any one of the following: Range, Damage, Armor, Skill, Movement (full inches for regular movement, half inches for flight), and Effective Size (for lifting, throwing, or operating large objects). If d10s or d12s are assigned to Damage, it's always Explosion Damage; otherwise dice do standard Damage with no area effect.
(Old stuff that's no longer allowed: Area, Duration, Create/Uncreate Matter, Influence Thought, Lend Power, and Flexibility. Some parts of Telekinesis, Portal, and Know are special cases that can still work but don't get their own sections anymore.)
Dice may be rolled one at a time or in groups, according to preference; players don't have to decide in advance the total number of dice they plan to use for a given effect.
If used for an Action, each die used adds +1 to Use rating. Super units still get only one Action per turn.
THE FUN PART: Whenever a 1 is rolled, your opponent may immediately re-roll that die and use it to modify your effect however he wishes (range inches in the wrong direction being a common choice). If your opponent also rolls a 1, the die is wasted.

Interview by Isaac McKay-Randozzi
Asking questions to people that you've never met face to face is an interesting thing. In this day you can contact just about anyone via email. After asking Rob Abeyta for the a little help, we contacted Mr. Oriol and asked him some questions about his photography, life, sox, Devo, Chia pets and going from bouncer to video director and to upcoming film director on the life of Mr. Cartoon.
Age: 39
Occupation: Photography/director/Joker Clothing owner
Tools of your trade: Canon AE 1 35 MM, Pentax 67.
Where did you grow up? Westside of Los Angeles
Why photography? Why not a mechanic or a stockbroker?
I just fell into it touring with Cypress Hill taking snap shots of touring on the road, then coming home taking flicks of lowriding cause I was in a car club.
Do you think growing up in that type of environment affected the way you shoot?
I just shot what I was used to seeing and knew how it should look.
What was the most valuable thing you learned from your parents?
Work hard and be grateful.
You were a club bouncer, tour manager for House of Pain, a DJ, and you and Everlast had a clothing company before you got into photography. Looking back on it, do you see it as a natural progression, a series of happenstance events that lead you into what you are doing now, or a combination?
Yeah it all was a steppingstone for where I am now. Doing the Not Guilty clothing with Everlast and my homie Lucky, got my feet wet to do Joker Clothing now and for the past 10 years. I needed to do it all to be where I am today.
I told B Real-Cypress Hill, to direct the first video for his side group called the Psycho Realm, because at that time Dre and Cube were co-directing their videos putting there name in the credits, so B told me, "I rap, you should direct it, your the camera dude." So him and the 2 guys in the group Jacken and Duke told the label they wanted me to do direct the first one. Then the second, then two for Muggs' side project Soul Assassins. 1 for Sen's side project SX10 and so and so on, to now doing the Transplants and Blink 182 videos and getting a 3 picture deal with Universal/Imagine. The 1st movie being about Cartoon based on true events called Ink. For videos I'm working with www.hsiproductions.com.
I try to travel a couple times a year because I don't tour anymore, after 13 years on the road the bands I was touring with don't really tour anymore. Whenever I can travel and work at the same time I'm down with that, it's kinda like a paid vacation.
Have you been able to take photos outside of the video shoot setting during your travels?
Yeah, whenever we do location scouting or time off, I bust out the AE 1 and go take flicks. The Pentax I usually leave at home its to big to carry everywhere and its a hassle. If I could I would shoot everything with the AE. People don't trip out as much when you have the AE 1, when they see that Pentax come out, it's like pulling your dick out, they say, "oh shit what is that?"
Do you go into the darkroom much?
I have a few times but its too much drama for me its an art form all in its self. I'd rather use that time to hustle more work. I have A.D.D. I can't be stuck in those little rooms for hours.
Do you shoot digital?
If I have to. To me it's not there yet.
What's your stance on the digital vs. film debate?
I'll take film any day, and maybe because I don't know enough about digital but oh well.
We met through a friend we had in common through lowriding who was also in the music business. His name was Donnie Charles (R.I.P.) aka D.C. At that time he was the manager of a group called W.C. and The Mad Circle, which featured W.C. From Westside Connection and Coolio. We met at the record release party for Penthouse Players in 1992, and kept in touch and now we're best friends, compadres and business partners in S.A. Studios and www.jokerbrand.com.
How long have you known him?
13 years and still going strong. What's important in our success is that we communicate we never argue or get our feelings hurt we just talk like men and get through it.
Who are the Soul Assassins? And what part does SA Studios play?
The Soul Assassins are a group of artists. We have people in movie and film, photography, fashion, music, commercial and fine art. S.A. Studios is the art department; we do video direction and production, design (CD layouts, clothing, etc.), graphics, photography, events and tattoos. Joker does the fashion, Scotty Caan and myself work in the film industry, Cypress, Alchemist, Chace and Rob Aston handle the music and we have homies like Lucky doing sales for famous SAS, Trevelen with Super Co. Customs building choppers, to name a few.
How long have you known Rob Abeyta and what aspect of SA Studios does he handle?
A few years, he does spiritual advising, design, graphics, art shows and right now working presently on designing the Ink book.
You've shot a lot of different hip-hop celebrities, who has been your favorite to shoot?
I like a lot of them 99% of them are cool as fuck, there are a few I've done a few shoots with so we have a better relationship.
How is INK book progressing?
I'm in the selecting the print stage and then it goes to the scanning and then designing. I've been printing about 200 prints got another 200 to go. The movie is in the hiring the writer stage. We got a good one there, it's up to the studios to greenlight it now.
With more personal projects, like "Ink" has the subject of creativity vs. marketability come up?
As far as the books goes we're doing it the way we want to that's how that deal was set up, with the movie since the studio is putting up a lot of money of course they want to make money but they don't want it to comprise the film and the authenticity.
That's good to hear. Authenticity is the one thing that seems to get sacrificed in most film projects. Do you think that because of your relationship with Mr. Cartoon you will have a friendly perspective on him? Are you going to show all aspects of the man, good and bad?
Oh yeah for sure you will see all sides of him, This isn't going to be PG version or Disney Cartoon. This is about Mr. Cartoon from the sickside. We both know that people want to see it all. They don't want the candy coated shit, unless it's a paint job for their ride.
Do you drink? If so, what's you favorite beer?
I don't drink anymore but when I did I would drink whatever scotch. Beer to crystal in the club, I didn't care about the brand name or the taste I just wanted to get fuckin' smashed. Its not a party till the handcuffs go on.
If your house was on fire and all of your family was safely out, what one thing would you save from the flames?
My photos and negs, everything else is replaceable with insurance or buy the shit again. I can't go all over the world or back in time and take these photos again.
As you get older, do you think your photography subjects will change? In 20 years are we going to see a book of landscapes by you?
A lil here and there, I'm pretty much sticking with the hardcore shit and fine broads, if I get old enough to do landscapes I hope I retire at that point. I think Ansel Adams did it perfect, I cant see anybody doing it different so it would be better.
Where is Mr. Estevan Oriol in 20 years?
I'll be Araki's age probably as sick in the head as him.
What are you working on right now?
A gang of shit, a few videos, a documentary, photo shoots, and Joker, then my 4 kids my life outside of all this work.
Ride my Harley or take my 47 Fleetline for a drive.
Striped or plain sox?
Plain white, and not those broad ones that everyone is wearing with the little balls cut off.
What's the best part about living where you live?
It's like "Leave it to Beaver" neighborhood. I never hear gunshots at night.
The worst?
The drive to work in the fucking traffic.
How much of the criminal element do you deal with? Or have you dealt with when you were a bouncer?
On a daily basis just not as much as I use to when I was younger. I live in L.A.
Do you think Devo is over-rated?
No they get their respect from me they worked hard and did their thing.
What's your favorite Devo song?
Are we not men, we are Devo.
Had you ever heard of Fecal Face Dot Com before this interview?
No, but that doesn't mean anything.
Do you consider yourself an artist, or someone who makes their living doing artistic things? Do you see a separation between the two?
Both, to me it's the same you can be an artist and make money doing your artistic things.
I saw a photo of you at the SA Studios show at Fifty24SF and my first reaction was, "Shit, wouldn't want to piss that cat off!" Do others have this reaction and if so do you find it a hindrance or a benefit in your work?
Yeah it fucks me a little but I don't mean no harm, I'm just trying to work and do my thing.
What music have you been listening to lately?
The Mars Volta, At The Drive-In, young Jeezy, Paul Wall, Led Zepplin.
Do Chia pets make good gifts?
To who? Who the fuck wants those?
If you had five minutes with President Bush, what would you say or do?
I'd say, "Are you for real homes?"
Any thank yous of fuck yous?
Thank you to everyone who supported me, and all of our stuff we couldn't have done it with out your support. Thank you to all the haters you only make us stronger.
Fuck you bootleggers, shame on you.

TORONTO — The Toronto Blue Jays' power numbers have been impressive during their seven-game winning streak that has taken them to the top of the American League East standings.
They're also doing the little things right and it paid off in a 10-5 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday night.
Bunt singles, hustle plays, slick defence, outfield assists — the Blue Jays are doing it all while keeping the long ball in their arsenal. Edwin Encarnacion, Steve Tolleson and Dioner Navarro hit solo homers and Toronto (30-22) pounded out 16 hits in the opener of a three-game series on a muggy night at Rogers Centre.
"They just put the heavy gloves on and beat us up tonight," said Rays manager Joe Maddon.
The Blue Jays jumped out to a 2-0 lead after opening with five straight hits on Canadian starter Erik Bedard (2-3). Tampa Bay (23-29) did some damage against Toronto starter Drew Hutchison (4-3) but could never move into the lead.
Every time the Rays scored, the Blue Jays were quick to answer.
When Tampa Bay tied the game in the third inning, Navarro and Tolleson responded with back-to-back homers in the fourth.
When the Rays pulled even again in the fifth, Toronto put four more runs on the board in the bottom half before Encarnacion added an insurance run with a solo shot in the sixth inning.
With the win, Toronto remained two games ahead of second-place New York in the A.L. East. The Yankees defeated St. Louis 6-4 in 12 innings.
The Blue Jays have won seven of their last eight home games and 12 of their last 14 games overall.
"When things are going good, they're going good," said Toronto manager John Gibbons.
It was Encarnacion's 13th homer this month, breaking Jose Bautista's club record for home runs in the month of May that was set in 2010. Melky Cabrera chipped in with three hits, while Brett Lawrie of Langley, B.C., Navarro and Kevin Pillar added two hits apiece.
"It was just not enough," Maddon said. "They kept adding on. They have such a good lineup and when the bottom (of the order) contributes like they did today, it makes it even more difficult."
The Blue Jays showed their mix of skill and power in the first inning. A bunt single, double and three straight singles got the crowd of 15,616 into the game early.
David DeJesus hit a solo shot for Tampa Bay in the third and James Loney later drove in Evan Longoria with a sacrifice fly. The Rays loaded the bases but Tolleson showed his range at second base by cutting off a sharp grounder by Cole Figueroa and making an off-balance throw to first for the third out.
Toronto responded in the fourth inning by hitting back-to-back homers for the third time this season. The Blue Jays also used a little small ball to push another run across.
Pillar reached on an infield single and moved to second when Anthony Gose dropped down a nice sacrifice bunt. Reyes moved Pillar to third on a grounder to the right side of the infield and Cabrera drove him in with a single.
In the fifth, Tampa Bay's Matt Joyce hit a one-out double and cleanup hitter Desmond Jennings followed with his fifth homer of the season. Loney tied the game with a solo shot — the first time the Rays have hit back-to-back homers this year.
Toronto responded with four runs in the bottom half of the frame. Encarnacion and Lawrie hit back-to-back doubles and Navarro added an RBI single to make it 7-5, knocking Bedard out of the game.
Alex Colome came on in relief and didn't fare much better.
He walked pinch-hitter Juan Francisco and got Pillar to fly out before being burned by the speedy Gose, who out-hustled Colome to the bag on a slow chopper to the right side. Reyes drew a bases-loaded walk and Cabrera drove in Francisco with a sacrifice fly.
Encarnacion led off the Toronto half of the sixth by turning on a 2-2 pitch from Colome. Entering the game, the Toronto slugger led the major leagues in homers in May, was tied for first with 17 extra-base hits and was second with 25 RBIs.
Cabrera and Gose each chipped in with an outfield assist. Pillar also showed off his defensive skill in right field by making a nice sliding catch at the warning track to prevent Longoria from driving in a couple of runs.

NEW LONDON, Conn. – Senior Will Tashman (Atherton, Calif.) and sophomore Matt Redfield (Los Altos, Calif.) each recorded double-doubles to lead MIT past Coast Guard, 92-66, in a New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference men's basketball game this afternoon. The Engineers ran out to a 23-point halftime lead and never looked back as they placed 12 players in the scoring column. Zach Wells led Coast Guard with 14 points.
Baskets by Jimmy Knudsen and Mark Krebs in the first minute of play gave Coast Guard (1-16, 0-7 NEWMAC) and early 4-0 advantage. MIT (14-4, 5-2 NEWMAC) did not score until three minutes in when Tashman laid one in for the first of his team-high 23 points of the game. Freshman Russell Johnson (New York, N.Y.) followed with a trey that put the Engineers up 5-4 and they never trailed again.
After scoring twice in the first minute, Coast Guard did not pick up a point again for nearly eight minutes as the MIT defense forced the Bears into 14 straight missed shots. The Engineers offense started to pick up steam during the stretch, completing a 15-0 run on a Tashman layup with 12:04 to go in the first. With seven minutes left in the half Coast Guard picked up a pair of threes from Wells and Joe Whitman to cut the MIT advantage to 23-12 at the 6:19 mark, but the Bears could get no closer than 10 the rest of the half. MIT, which shot 55 percent from long-range in the first half, pushed its lead to 44-21 at halftime as senior James Burke (Scotch Plains, N.J.) and Johnson hit three-pointers in the final minutes of the half to lead the Engineers to their halftime cushion.
MIT maintained its 20+ point lead for the first 11 minutes of the second half as the Engineers countered nearly every basket Coast Guard scored with one of their own. Burke hit a pair of treys in the first five minutes, with his second extending MIT's advantage to 54-30 at the 15:20 mark. A three from freshman Justin Pedley (Kennewick, Wash.) three minutes later moved MIT to its biggest lead of the contest, 63-36.
Trailing by 25 with 10 minutes to go Coast Guard put together its biggest threat of the half; going on a 9-1 run that brought the MIT lead down to 17 points at 67-50 after a jumper by Greg Marshall at 8:09. MIT answered with a pair of free throws from senior Mitchell Kates (Colts Neck, N.J.) and then a trey from Burke pushed the lead back over the 20-point mark, which is where it stayed the rest of the game. The Engineers converted on 14-of-19 free throws over the final eight minutes, with a pair from Tashman with 4:53 left bringing the MIT lead back to 27 at 81-54.
Tashman finished with 23 points and 14 rebounds for his eighth double-double of the season. Redfield also picked up 14 boards and finished with 15 points and three blocks. Burke drained five of his 12 three-point attempts and added 19 points to the MIT totals. Coast Guard had three players finish in double figures, with Knudsen dropping in 12 and Greg Marshall adding 10. Wells, who shot 5-of-7 from the field, also lead the Bears with seven rebounds. MIT outshot Coast Guard 45 percent to 31 percent and also held a 45-37 edge on the boards.
MIT will return home for its next game, hosting Wheaton College in a NEWMAC matchup on Wednesday, Jan. 20 at 7:00 p.m. Coast Guard will also be home for its next outing, hosting Springfield on Wednesday at 5:30 p.m.

Adult students learning alongside their children at Wayland
PLAINVIEW -- For 18-year-olds just out of high school, college is a natural option these days. For those headed for careers that require higher education, attending a university is a no-brainer.
But decades ago, that wasn't always the case, and some adults went straight into the workforce for a variety of reasons. So it isn't really uncommon, especially at schools like Wayland Baptist University, to see adults returning to the classroom to pursue the degree they either never finished or never started.
What is a bit more uncommon is to see those adult students learning alongside their own children, who fall more into the "traditional" age range of college students. Vicki Connell falls into that category, but her story has a bit of a twist to it. She actually moved to Plainview with her son, Jason, to attend Wayland.
A family crisis in Fort Worth left Vicki's husband Jay without work, and Vicki was unable to handle the rent and family finances alone. Their married daughter, Christy Gonce, lives in Plainview and was finishing her degree at WBU, so the family thought the move here made sense.
"Jason had just graduated and was ready for college, so instead of just wasting away in Fort Worth, we decided to come here and go to school," Vicki said, adding they arrived in Plainview in May and lived with her daughter before married student housing at WBU opened up in July.
Originally, she thought she'd just work, but having some college already under her belt from years before, Vicki figured she might as well earn her degree while she was here.
"I wanted to do something with my time that would be productive," she said. "I've worked with students for 20 years in Christian schools, but I'm learning new things like computers and software, that will help me down the road too."
Vicki is working on an English degree through the Division of Education so she can teach in the future. She's working part-time at Hastings as well. Jason is still trying to figure out his future plans and set a major, but he's enjoying the challenge of college as well.
"I wondered if they would accept me here or if I could do the work," said Jason, who had some serious health issues as an infant and sustained some hearing damage. "But I'm doing well here and like the classes a lot. I like the smaller setting here where's there's more of a personal feel. I don't like crowds, so this was easy to get used to."
The Connells have found support and encouragement at College Heights Baptist Church and make trips to Fort Worth to see Jay whenever they can. Both are thankful for the classwork that serves as a productive distraction from the troublesome situation.
"The Lord knows why these things happen, and he says he won't put more on us than we can handle," Vicki said with confidence. "God's really worked through this situation."
As for those courses, Jason and Vicki say they purposefully plan their schedules where they don't have classes together, though they have taken several of the same courses at the same time. Vicki said she wants Jason to have as close to a normal college experience. But they admit they study together, especially for classes they share in common, and proof each other's work.
Vicki said while she initially had some fears about being able to handle college coursework, she's found herself able to rise to the challenge. Jason is proud his mother is pursuing her education as well, and he's not embarrassed to share the campus with her.
"I don't feel too out of place here. I noticed a lot of younger kids, of course, but there are some older students too," she said. "I have worked with kids for years, so I'm comfortable here."
Joel Magallan, Sr. of Hale Center shares the sentiment. As a senior at Wayland, Magallan had worked as a paint and body technician for more than 30 years before finally taking the plunge and pursuing his degree at WBU.
Magallan followed several of his children to Wayland, encouraged by their confidence in him and their success with degrees.
"They really wanted me to get out of the (car) business and do something else. But it's all I knew, so I didn't have any other goals," he said. "Now I'd like to be a Spanish teacher in the high school. I really want to help kids learn something."
Magallan stopped by WBU in 1996 to pick up an academic catalog, but he put it away for several years thinking it was just too far-fetched a dream.
"I thought going to college was unattainable… period. I didn't think I had the intellect, that college was only for the very smart," he recalls. "I wanted to come years ago but I never did. I had to work for my family."
When his wife, Loida, offered to carry the load of the family finances so he could pursue the degree, Joel decided to take the plunge and enroll, starting in 2003 at the same time as his daughter Stacy. That first semester, he made the Dean's List, a dream he said surprised both himself and his family since he was making better grades than in high school. But it affirmed he was doing the right thing.
As he's finishing up his degree, Magallan is attending WBU alongside his son Joel, Jr., also a senior, and daughter Evelyn, a sophomore. Daughter Peggy graduated a few years back, and son Amos attended for a few years before transferring to Texas Tech to pursue an engineering degree. The Magallans have two children still in high school, Zachariah and Kathlyn.
The family has tried not to schedule classes together, Magallan said, but sometimes the rotation would fall where they were in class together. Though it might have been uncomfortable for both sides, Joel said his children have been totally supportive of his endeavor and are proud he is accomplishing his goal. Like the Connells, the family studies together often, though most of the Magallan children are studying business.
Magallan knows he's learned valuable skills, like computers, during his time at Wayland, and wants to make a difference in the lives of young people. He's also excited that completing his degree will improve his family life financially.
"My wife has been so supportive, and she's paying the bills for now. That's another motivator for me; she works hard so this is possible," he said. "We're sacrificing now but it will pay off later."
Magallan is also hoping his story motivates others – young and old – to pursue higher education and believe in their goals and dreams.
"I've tried to help motivate my younger kids to go as well as others," he said with a chuckle. "If I can do it, all old and worn out, I know they can do it."

Duane Eleby, a suspected drug courier, was all set to sneak 10 pounds of cocaine through a security checkpoint at Los Angeles International Airport last February with the help of a former Transportation Security Administration employee and a screener.
Eleby, however, bungled the plan by going to the wrong terminal and was arrested after another TSA screener found the cocaine, which set in motion a series of undercover operations that led to Wednesday's announcement that two former and current TSA employees had been indicted on federal drug trafficking and bribery charges.
A 22-count indictment outlined five incidents where the TSA employees took payments of up to $2,400 to provide drug couriers unfettered access at LAX over a six-month period last year. In all, seven people are facing charges, including Eleby.
"The allegations in this case describe a significant breakdown of the screening system through the conduct of individuals who placed greed above the nation's security needs," said U.S. Attorney Andre Birotte Jr.


text: Floyd Grey is a fashion illustrator from Kuala Lumpur who is able to draw both from the realms of the real as well as the fantastic. His light lines of proportion sometimes give way for big-eyed girls holding daggers and dressed for adventure. However, his traditional pen and ink renderings [which I assume are done digitally] of beautiful women in designer clothes are his real expertise. The truth is in the eyes of each one of his figures, since they are illustrated in such a gorgeous way that I'm sure it makes the actual models blush every time they see them.

Yeah, you read that right: Men's Health magazine, full of "how
to have better sex" and "how to lose the belly fat!" advice for men, has a blog
for men about feminism. This unequivocally rocks for three reasons.
First, it's a sign that the feminist blogosphere has moved into the
mainstream. When feminist verticals like Broadsheet and Double X are either
disappearing or folding back into their original publications, it's a good
indicator for the future that a mainstream popular men's magazine has taken up
the feminist cause.
Second, hopefully a blog like this can help de-stigmatize the label "feminist" for readers.
Finally, the blog could help bring men to the movement. For men, feminism and what it entails is rarely discussed outside of a historical context...

Air strikes launched by a coalition that included the United States, France and Great Britain have turned back an advance of forces loyal to Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi near Benghazi, Libya, that seemed on the verge of obliterating the North African state's nascent rebellion. But the matter of what comes after the conclusion of an air campaign intended to precede the enforcement of a no-fly zone over Libya has quickly become a political football in the United States. Critics from both sides of the aisle charge that the Obama administration has entangled the nation in a third military adventure with no clear end in sight.
David Cortright, director of policy studies at the University of Notre Dame's Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies, said analyzing the coalition's use of force through Catholic just war principles "yields a mixed opinion." The campaign was launched with appropriate multilateral authority that included endorsement by the Arab League and approval from the U.N. Security Council. And the air strikes, he said, have prevented a threatened "mass killing" of noncombatants. "The cause of protecting civilians is certainly just," said Cortright. Where the decision to intervene breaks down, he said, is on the tradition's prohibition against the use of force when the "probability of success" is doubtful. Regarding the current campaign against Qaddaffi, "No end game is in sight," said Cortright. "And it is not clear how the use of military force will contribute to a stable political settlement."
The dangers for the United States, he warned, are huge. "If the campaign does not produce quick results, the intervening forces will face pressures to escalate," Cortright said. "If the operation falters and the rebels are not able to oust the regime, the U.S. and its allies will be blamed for a failure that was not theirs in the making."
Cortright said that other options remain for saving Libyan lives, including the establishment by the Security Council of protected humanitarian corridors near Libya's borders. "This would help the delivery of humanitarian aid and would provide a location where defectors could safely qualify for amnesty from future criminal prosecution." He said the Obama administration could also work to strengthen newly imposed sanctions targeted against the regime.
Church leaders from the region were more critical of the decision to use force. Bishop Giovanni Innocenzo Martinelli, O.F.M., apostolic vicar of Tripoli and president of Caritas Libya, said on March 21 that he was shocked by the coalition campaign, which "has proved devastating for civilians and risky on the level of political consequences." He said undoubtedly there was a serious risk of "collateral damages."
The archbishop said, "I cannot approve this type of violence against what until yesterday was a friendly nation, particularly as far as Italy is concerned." Bishop Martinelli said the coalition campaign has seriously complicated Caritas Libya's efforts to assist 2,500 Eritrean migrants still in Libya. "Our hope is to soon be able to transfer them toward the border with Tunisia."

All so sweet. :D
Thank you!
The Vance Family Reunion
(Below is seating chart)
During the summertime you hear about folks going to this reunion or that one. School reunions, family reunions... long time friends and family who haven't seen each other in years finally getting together over the summer break. Let's hear about yours.... or your ancestors. They had reunions too. Maybe you'll want to write about the reunion after being away at war, or two sisters finally speaking after years of self imposed not speaking.
Perhaps you won't want to talk about yourself or family at all, but witnessing a reunion might have changed you in ways you never would have dreamed.
Any kind of reunion! We're looking forward to see where your mind goes with this one! =)
Don't forget to come back and link with Mr. Linky!! :)

Augusta Episcopal priest faces charges for allegedly smuggling drugs into jail for 2 inmates
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) � An Episcopal priest is facing charges for allegedly smuggling drugs into a Maine jail.
Authorities announced Wednesday that the Rev. Stephen Foote of Bremen has been charged with trafficking in prison contraband for allegedly bringing suboxone into the Two Bridges Regional Jail in Wiscasset. Suboxone is a synthetic opiate used mostly to ease symptoms of opiate addiction, but it also can be abused.
Two inmates he allegedly supplied are also facing charges.
The 70-year-old Foote has been serving St. Mark's Episcopal Church in Augusta.
The Kennebec Journal (http://bit.ly/QIqDbg ) reports that Foote has been released on unsecured bail, and the Episcopal Diocese of Maine has placed him on administrative leave. Bishop Stephen Lane says he heard the news with "sadness and deep concern."
Foote's lawyer refused comment.

With a chance to play the spoiler role in their regular season finale, the Durfee High baseball team battled to the end before dropping a 5-2 decision to Taunton at home on Saturday.
With a chance to play the spoiler role in their regular season finale, the Durfee High baseball team battled to the end before dropping a 5-2 decision to Taunton at home on Saturday.
With two out and the bases loaded in the bottom of the seventh inning, the Hilltoppers sent the game-winning run to the plate. Unfortunately, T.J. Roussel grounded out to second to end the rally and Durfee's season in the process.
"We needed a couple more hits and couldn't come up with them," said Durfee head coach Brad Bustin. "It's been that way all year. Hitting has been sporadic. We've been unable to string a lot of hits together."
The victory by the Tigers catapults them into the postseason. Needing wins in its final two regular season games to reach the postseason, Taunton (10-10) topped New Bedford 6-2 Friday night and took care of Durfee 14 hours later.
"We're fortunate to come away with the win and get in (the tournament)," said Taunton head coach Jeff Sylvia. "It was a quick turnaround from last night. I'm glad we can take a collective deep breath."
The Tigers pushed across a single run in the second on an RBI base hit by D.J. Kullas. They added four more in the third on run-scoring singles by Zach Bowden, Zach MacLean and Mike Bunker to take a 5-0 lead.
"We had the big inning where we scored four runs and then we were able to hold on," said Sylvia. "Today I think everybody contributed 1 through 9 in the lineup."
Following the four-run third, Bustin lifted starter Justin Martinho for J.P. Bonanca. Over the final four innings, the senior right hander blanked the Tigers allowing three hits. He walked none and struck out four.
"J.P. kept us in the game," said Bustin. "He gave us a chance to win. For a senior to have that kind of outing today I was really happy for him."
Durfee (7-13) scored a single run in the fifth on a base hit by Mike Correia and an RBI double by Alex Benevides cutting the Tigers' lead to 5-1. They also added a run in the seventh when designated hitter Desmond Sanders lined an RBI single up the middle plating Martinho making the score 5-2.
Taunton starter Justin Jorge was solid in his six plus inning effort, allowing 12 hits and two runs. He walked one and struck out six. He was replaced by Max Bowden, who induced the Roussel groundout to end the game.
Benevides led the Hilltoppers offensively, going 2-for-4 with an RBI. Sanders had three hits and an RBI and Correia and Martinho both had two hits and a run scored.
Zach Bowden and MacLean paced the Tigers, both going 2-for-3 with a run and an RBI.

Despite a winter storm warning, hundreds of residents lined Germantown Avenue last Saturday to celebrate the return of Chestnut Hill's annual holiday parade. The parade, originally sponsored by the Chestnut Hill Development Group, has not been held for more than two decades.
Philadelphia's Mounted Police Unit led the parade, which began at Chestnut Hill Avenue. But, the star of this year's parade, sponsored by the Chestnut Hill Community Association, was the Phillie Phanatic, who waved and shook his belly as he rode atop Chestnut Hill Fire Company Engine 37.
Amelia Terry, 2½, of Chestnut Hill, beamed with delight from the excitement of the festivities.
"The Phillie Phanatic was funny," she said as she waited in anticipation of Santa's arrival.
"It was a fabulous success," said Celeste Hardester, community manager at the Chestnut Hill Community Association.
Hardester said she was worried that it was going to be "a parade that nobody came to" because of the threat of a fast-approaching snowstorm.
"It was absolutely perfect weather for a holiday parade," Hardester said.
More than 300 people marched in this year's parade with representatives from the Wissahickon Skating Club, the 4-H club of Northwestern Stables, the Chestnut Hill Branch of the U.S. Postal Service, Chestnut Hill Hospital and many more.
Children from several local schools, including J.S. Jenks Elementary School, Norwood-Fontbonne Academy, Our Mother of Consolation, St. Genevieve Elementary School, Springfield Township High School and Middle School and many more, marched down the Avenue singing and cheering.
Spectators were treated to a brief performance by the University of the Arts bucket-drum band that strutted along with the Venetian Club's comic brigade. Classic cars and children's characters, including Elmo and Rudolf, were also big hits of the parade.
And, of course, last but definitely not least was the big man himself, Santa Claus, who rode on the back of the Wyndmoor Volunteer Fire Hose #1. Thanks to the Chestnut Hill Holiday parade, Santa Claus is officially back in town. And, hopefully, the Chestnut Hill Holiday Parade is a tradition that is here to stay.
Organizers also recognized contributions by CHCA board member Bob Rossman and Chestnut Hill Hotel owners Abby and Ron Pete who hosted parade goers at the Market on the Fareway.

Criminal on the run, Marion Crane(Anne Heche) Takes refuge at the motel opperated by Norman Bates(Vince Vaughn)-A troubled man whose victims encounter a grisly death at the hands of his "mother". Marion soon becomes the next victim and he disappearance prompts inquiries from her sister(Julianne Moore) and a private investigator(William H. Macy). They both soon discover the morbid bond linking Norman to his "mother" at the Bates Motel. Relive the terror in acclaimed director Gus Van Sant's all-new version of Alfred Hitchcock's masterpiece of suspense.....PSYCHO"-Taken from the back cover of the Universal Pictures movie "Psycho"
Sound promising? Maybe a remake that is good, interesting...even BETTER!? Nope, not at all. This movie was horrible. It killed the story line and sucked the suspense right out of the original...the fact that it even borrows the same name is a disgrace. It begins in modern-day phoenix. A woman who works for a real-estate(maybe?) company is handed $400,000 by a rich southerner who buys some land. She's told to deposit the cash in the safety-deposit box. She doesn't, she takes the money and runs. There's an odd encounter with a cop, she buys a new car and stops at the Bates Motel. They attempt to re-create the shower scene...it isn't the same. The movie just gets worse from there. On part confused me though....the "mother" slashes the investigator at the top os the stairs and this image of a nude woman with a blind fold flashes up for a few seconds.....then she slashes a couple more times and the image of a calf in the middle of the road whil it's raining flashes up. Either way...it was certainly a horrible movie. Anyone else see this film?
