I guess you mean the south waimak river single track (edit: just saw post). There are some newish looking single track down there which is really fun through the trees and 4wds cant get in there so no huge ruts. Went from inlet rd to macleans rd just before xmas, lots of fun. Could be up for a ride on sunday, bike dependent.
Your absence was noticed down south
I'd say Challenge 9:00am for 9:30 start (gas=handy). I'm in, I think, esp if the weather plays ball.
We can have a Blue 'Alp alumni meeting if ThePom shows up. And then an XT bash plate viewing later on..
Nobody knows what human life is, why we come, why we go,
so why then do I know, I will see you in far off places?
Stephen Patrick Morrissey
oooh ..hard but fair.....good job I have no screen to smash...ouch!
Bastard! The worst of it is, I tried to get the sharp pointy bit off it and fooked it completely. The screen would, I fear, be less brittle if cast in ice.
Nobody knows what human life is, why we come, why we go,

Yup gutted to have missed it , made a nooooooob mechanical oversight which took me too long to figure out. All good now though, well so far....
You leave me wondering what it was.
Asking for help is not a bad thing but by Friday morning it would have been too late as we were off through the Orari by then.
See you Sunday hopefully. If you want me to cast an eye over your issue let me know, then we'll consult someone who really knows what's what if needed.
Didnt start putting the bike together until thursday due to needing a cylinder head bolt from suzuki (mistake 1) and put the bike back together but it wouldnt start . Thought i had found the problem (cam chain timing one notch out, mistake 2) so thought it would be fine by friday but wasnt. However I had (mistake 3) slighty dislodged the exhaust shims when taking things apart which meant the exhaust valves where always slightly open and had very low compression so wouldnt start. I Я noob
Ahh, I see, or actually I don't see, or glad I didn't see. I start to get lost once engine gets opened up... but yea, want to have it running the weekend before and stop touching stuff then. I also had some last minute tweaks I discovered I needed but stopped short of ripping out the front sprocket shaft oil seal in case I couldn't get a new one back on in time.
It will be back next year and there are plenty of storeys appearing now and some video to come.
Suppose we should let the thread get back on topic.
So challenge at 9 it is then!I'd say Challenge 9:00am for 9:30 start
Google tells me the addressisn 345 Halswell Road. Does that sound right?
Yep, sounds right.
and that's Sunday.
Sunday is still looking good weather wise.
Lets hope that wind dies off for the morning, going to be a PITA up on the tops tomorrow otherwise.
See you there regardless.

From staff reports
Tyson Foods will pay a $3.95 million civil penalty following allegations by the federal government of releases of a dangerous chemical that resulted in one fatality and dozens of injuries at multiple sites in the Midwest over a period of four years.
The settlement was announced Friday by the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 7, which is based in Kansas City.
As part of a consent decree filed in U.S. District Court in St. Louis, Tyson also will conduct pipe testing and third-party audits of its ammonia refrigeration systems at all 23 of its plants in Missouri, Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska to improve compliance with the federal Clean Air Act.
That includes Tyson plants in Monett and Noel.
According to the EPA and the Department of Justice, the settlement stems from eight separate accidents between 2006 and 2010 in which anhydrous ammonia used at Tyson plants was accidentally released.
Those include:
On Oct. 31, 2006, anhydrous ammonia was released at a Tyson plant in South Hutchinson, Kan. One worker was killed and another was injured.
On Nov. 8, 2006, there was a release from a plant in Sedalia, with at least three injuries.
On Dec. 9, 2006, there was a release from the company's Hutchinson plant resulting in at least 10 injuries and a plant evacuation.
On Dec. 26, 2006, there was a release from a Tyson plant in Omaha, Neb., in which there were five injuries and 475 workers were evacuated.
On Oct. 4, 2007, and again on Nov. 5, 2009, there were releases from a plant in Perry, Iowa. The same employee was exposed both times, and the latter incident resulted in severe chemical burns and frostbite to 25 percent of the victim's body and 45 days of hospitalization.
On Oct. 30, 2007, there was a release from a plant in Sioux City, Iowa, in which one person was injured.
On April 17, 2009, an employee was injured following a release at a Tyson plant in Emporia, Kan.
On June 18, 2010, a release from the plant in Cherokee, Iowa, caused one injury to a worker.
Inspections at other Tyson plants in those four states found other violations, covering areas such as reporting requirements and failure to correct defective equipment. Those violations included failure to follow general industry standards to test or replace safety relief valves and gas-fired boilers improperly located next to ammonia machinery, as well as failures to abide by the Clean Air Act's risk management program prevention and reporting requirements.
At its Monett plant, Tyson was accused by the federal government of failing to review and annually certify that operating procedures were current and accurate according to Clean Air Act regulations. In Noel, the company was cited for failing to provide initial training for each employee involved in its risk management plan.
Tyson responds
Tyson officials said in a statement that while they dispute many of the EPA's assertions, they "acknowledge there was a period when some refrigeration improvement projects fell behind schedule and Tyson did not meet all the obligations required under the program at several locations.
"We strive to operate our facilities responsibly, so after learning of EPA's concerns we immediately made improvements and cooperated with EPA officials throughout the process," Kevin Igli, senior vice president and chief environmental, health and safety officer of Tyson Foods, said in a statement.
Igli said he hoped the new auditing requirement would "become a model provision that EPA may require from other industrial users of anhydrous ammonia or other chemicals, including other agricultural and food companies."
While the lawsuit and settlement were specific to those four states that are part of EPA Region 7, an attempt to find out whether Tyson plants in other parts of the country were investigated was unsuccessful Friday.
"I can't speak for the other regions," said Ben Washburn, Region 7 spokesperson.
He referred calls to EPA officials in Washington, D.C., but Stacy Kika, EPA spokesperson, would not comment on whether the agency had investigated other Tyson plants, saying only: "EPA does not discuss potential or ongoing enforcement matters."
Gary Mickelson, spokesperson for Tyson, indicated they were not aware of any investigations, but also referred that question to the EPA.
Anhydrous ammonia
According to the EPA, anhydrous ammonia is considered a poisonous gas that is commonly used in industrial refrigeration systems. Exposure to its vapors can cause temporary blindness, eye damage and irritation of the skin, mouth, throat, respiratory tract and mucous membranes. Prolonged exposure to the vapor at high concentrations can lead to serious lung damage and even death.
Tyson's 23 plants listed in the consent decree are subject to the Clean Air Act's risk management program requirements because their refrigeration systems each contain more than 10,000 pounds of anhydrous ammonia. The plants have a combined inventory of more than 1.7 million pounds of the chemical.
Tyson also will spend at least $300,000 to purchase anhydrous ammonia-related emergency response equipment for fire departments in eight communities where some of its operations are located.
That includes $26,855 in Monett and $35,829 in Noel.
Mickelson said Monett and Noel were chosen because they were identified as communities with the "greatest equipment needs."
"Exposure to anhydrous ammonia can cause serious health issues, and in extreme cases, even death," Cynthia Giles, assistant administrator for EPA's office of enforcement and compliance assurance, said in a statement. "Today's settlement with Tyson Foods will ensure the proper safety practices are in place in the future to protect employees, first responders and communities located near processing facilities from the threat of dangerous chemical releases."
Tyson Foods
Tyson, with headquarters in Springdale, Ark., is the world's largest processor and marketer of chicken, beef and pork.

Clinical Trial VICCBMT1129
A Randomized Controlled Study of Extracorporeal Photopheresis (ECP) Therapy with UVADEX for the Treatment of Patients with Moderate to Severe Chronic Graft vs Host Disease
Principal Investigator(s)
- Protocol No. VICCBMT1129
- Open Date: 11/17/2011
- Staging: Phase II
- Age Group: Adults
- Scope: National
- Objective: To compare the efficacy of ECP as determined by the incremental improvement in cGvHD according to National Institutes of Health (NIH) Consensus Response Criteria versus a control population.
- Disease Sites: Supportive Care; Lymphoma
- Therapies: Molecular Targeted Agents / Immunotherapy / Biologics; Therapy (NOS)
- Drugs: UVADEX (methoxsalen)
- Participating Institutions: Vanderbilt University
- National Clinical Trial ID: NCT01380535
- Secondary Protocol No: 10-005
Subjects are being asked to take part in this research study because they have moderate to severe chronic Graft-versus-Host Disease (cGvHD). This study will provide information about a possible new treatment to treat this condition. This clinical research study is being sponsored by THERAKOS, Inc. The purpose of this study is to see whether or not a new treatment called extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) therapy works (makes you feel better) and whether it is safe to use in patients with moderate to severe cGvHD. The basic idea of this therapy involves the collection of blood from the subject and the treatment of that blood, first with a medication, then with ultraviolet light, after which the blood is returned to the subject. This study compares ECP therapy in addition to standard drug treatment against standard drug treatment alone. Standard drug treatment is a treatment with the most common approved medicines that a doctor would give to patients for the treatment of their condition. The standard drug treatment consists of corticosteroids (drugs that reduce inflammation) and an immunosuppressant (drugs that suppress the response of your immune system) called cyclosporine. The kind of treatment that patients will be given will be decided randomly, like tossing a coin. About half of the subjects will receive standard drug treatment plus ECP and the other half, standard drug treatment alone, for the entire study. Therefore, subjects should take part in this study only if they are willing to receive either treatment. About 60 patients with moderate to severe cGvHD will take part at about 40 centers, which are located in about 7 countries (Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, United States of America, and others).
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
• Have new onset of moderate or severe cGvHD as assessed by the NIH Consensus Criteria Clinical Assessment (staging and severity) with onset within 2 years of transplantation (Patients with prior acute GvHD should be on a stable dose of <0.5 mg/kg daily prednisone, or equivalent, for at least 2 weeks prior to study entry. Prior ECP for patients with acute GvHD is permitted in the study);willing to start 1.0mg/kg prednisone: Be using adequate birth control; If a woman, must have negative pregnancy test result at screening: Be able and willing to comply with all study procedures including providing informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
• Be intolerant to corticosteroids; Received treatment with >2.0 mg daily prednisone, or equivalent, for cGvHD for more than 7 days prior to baseline visit; received treatment with prednisone for mild cGVHD with >.5mg/kg for > 14 days, Have evidence of known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), active Hepatitis B infection, or have uncontrolled infection requiring treatment at the time of study entry; Requires treatment with budesonide and similar low absorption oral steroids and steroid enema preparations; Receiving treatment with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF),PUVA, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agents, sirolimus, and bortezomib; Receiving treatment with alemtuzumab, antithymocyte globulin (ATG) or other similar long-acting agents used for treatment of acute or chronic GvHD or administered during the conditioning regimen <90 days prior to randomization

Mikael Lickteig scored the game-winning goal in overtime as Michigan Tech beat Nebraska Omaha 2-1 Saturday night at CenturyLink Center Omaha for a split of their weekend series.
Lickteig's goal 2:56 into OT dropped 14th-ranked UNO three points behind WCHA leader St. Cloud State, which beat Bemidji State on Saturday.
David Johnstone opened the scoring for the Huskies (8-13-4, 5-11-4), who got 36 saves from Pheonix Copley. The Michigan Tech netminder made 14 stops in the third period.
Josh Archibald tied the game 1-1 for UNO (16-10-2, 12-6-2), but Lickteig broke the tie and kept Mavericks goalie John Faulkner from tying the school record for wins. He has 52 career wins.

Reggae Music For Kids
A friend was recently lamenting to me that her three-year-old son is really drawn to reggae music, and how she wished that she had the time to go through her substantial reggae CD collection and burn discs of child-appropriate songs, as she'd rather he not listen to songs with drug-related lyrics. ("Mostly," she admits, "because I'll never hear the end of it from my Mother-in-Law if Benny sings some of those lyrics at family dinner!") The truth is, the majority of recorded reggae songs aren't particularly offensive, but many roots reggae songs do reference ganja, and lots of modern dancehall is peppered with slack lyrics, so Jamaican music can be a little bit of a minefield with a certain age of child. Luckily, some kind souls have either recorded or compiled various reggae CDs specifically for little ears. The best ones are those that grown-ups can listen to and love also, and that's why I've put together this list of Great Reggae Music for Kids.

By Tim Graham
Doug Marrone has demonstrated about as much personality as a Buckingham Palace guard since the Buffalo Bills introduced him as their next head coach two months ago.
Today at the annual coaches breakfast, as part of the NFL owners meetings in Phoenix, Marrone continued to remain coy rather than divulge any significant insight into what his plans are this year.
His general refrain is that schemes will be based on his personnel and, golly, he hasn't even had the chance to talk to his players face-to-face yet.
But Marrone finally did provide a glimpse into what makes him tick when asked about the angst of Bills fans. The club's postseason slump is only a couple years from qualifying for its driver's license.
Marrone revealed he, like recently signed linebacker Manny Lawson, wasn't aware the Bills had gone 13 years without a playoff appearance. Marrone then noted once he discovered that fact, he "could feel it."
He was asked if it compares to when he took over Syracuse's program, which had gone seven straight seasons without a winning record or a bowl victory.
The Bronx native went from reticent to impassioned in his response.
"I'm from New York," Marrone said. "I'm coming from two hours down the road. I grew up six hours away in the state. You know, people sit here and say, 'I know the people ...' Well, I'm one of them, you know?
"I know what it's like to grow up in that state. I know what it's like to scrape the ice off your windshield. I know what it's like to wake up in the morning and go to work when it's cold. I know what it's like to have your team not do well.
"I know what it's like to say, 'Hey, do I want to wear this Bills shirt today? Or do I not want to [hear about it] when I walk around?' And you know what? I feel fortunate -- myself, the coaches, the players -- to have the opportunity where, we can have them wear that darn shirt and wear it out and say, 'Hey, you know what? You're darn right. I'm a Bills fan, and I'm wearing it because I'm happy. We're winning.' "
Marrone was on a roll.
"That's what happened when I went back to Syracuse," he continues. "Granted, it was my alma mater. But you hear the stories: 'I'm not going to wear that.' And I was like, 'Hey, I've got a great sense of responsibility. We can wear our orange of Syracuse and be proud of what we're doing.'
"And it's the same way I feel in Buffalo. We're going to have all those fans, and they're passionate. They are passionate.
"Out of all the areas of all of New York, having been brought up in New York City, having gone to college in Central New York, my first coaching job at Cortland State, my first head coaching job back at Syracuse and my first head coaching job is in Buffalo ... I've done a lot in the state of New York. I feel like in all of the areas in that state, football-wise? I've always believed this, and I find it's still true to this day: There are a ton of football fans in Western New York. Football is No. 1, whereas you can argue when you go down to the southern part that baseball's No. 1."

Rated 4.2 out of 5�by 61 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by MzT Swimsuit purchase Shopping was quick and easy. The suit was here sooner than expected. It fit great and is high quality. Thanks! July 23, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5�by krissy not enough support Nice suit but cut too slim for a fuller figure. the sides under the arm are low and in and did not give me enough coverage or support. I returned it, May 30, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5�by flipper Not very pleased The material of this suit is too thin for an overweight woman. Fine for thinner women. I felt like a whale in this suit. May 7, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5�by Moore Not true to size I ordered this suit in my size and it was way too small. I returned it in store and walked over to the next store in the mall that sold swimsuits and bought one that I love. April 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Terry Excellent fit for a large woman This is the best fit yet for an extreme pear shape. The straps don't fall down when swimming laps. April 3, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by Kazooed Typical poorly designed plus size garment. Runs a size small. The strappy "racer back" is unsubstantial and just accentuate my negatives. I'm a plus size swimmer who doesn't need her swimsuit giving her bulges where she doesn't have them. This is just another up-scaled slim suit. The hunt continues... March 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Em0d My new favorite suit! I recently joined a gym with a covered lap pool. I used to swim in competitions but after a lot of life changes I stopped going to the gym altogether and gained a bunch of weight. As a plus size 22-24 finding a good swimsuit that would keep all my bits in and let me do laps properly is not an easy feat. This suit is perfection. The cross back keeps the straps in place and the cut is high enough that my chest doesn't feel exposed. The low cut on the bottom half isn't restrictive but works perfectly. I have been wearing this suit for over a week now, swimming at least 3 days a week and I will continue to purchase this same model over and over. February 20, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Maggie Great suit I loved every detail on this swimsuit except that it runs small and I will need to try to get the next size bigger size. February 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by mustang32 This product is absolutely perfect! This suit is absolutely wonderful.... It fits perfectly. I was afraid it wouldn't fit when I ordered it but it fits amazing. There's always that one suit that always sags in the front or gets bunched up; this product is NOT that type. I definitely recommend this product. January 31, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Cafe au Tommy This fills my need I do aqua jogging at the Y and my suits wear out quickly because of all the chemicals in the water. I like a modest suit because its been a long time since I was 21. This suit is an ok fit. Let's see how long it lasts. December 31, 2013

Can I create my own IP header, with a new static field of 32 bits, and send it to a destination host?
—Muguntha Kumar, email@example.com
Sure. Look at sendip for a programming example: www.earth.li/projectpurple/progs/sendip.html.
—Marc Merlin, firstname.lastname@example.com
What does process state D mean in the output of ps? Why doesn't the system allow root to kill processes with state D? What should one do if these processes are consuming a lot of system resources, which need to be released for use by other processes?
—Ankit Doshi, firstname.lastname@example.com
State D means the process is in uninterruptible sleep—sleeping, waiting for something to happen, but it cannot be interrupted, even by kill -9. Sometimes the D process is trying to access remote filesystems that are unmounted or no longer available. If that is the case, use the soft option to mount.
—Felipe Barousse Boué, firstname.lastname@example.com
At bootup I get:
lib/modules/2.4.9-34/kernel/drivers/crypto/ bcm/bcm5820.o:init_module Cannot locate memory.
I am not able to see any fault. Is this significant?
—George Robertson, firstname.lastname@example.com
This is the driver module for Broadcom Cryptonet BCM5820. If you do not have this device, you can ignore this error.
—Usman Ansari, email@example.com
I was trying to query all of the installed RPMs on my computer, so I used rpm -qaR. However, this gave me a lot of information that isn't user-friendly. I read a section in Maximum RPM about the --queryformat option. Now, I'm using this:
rpm -qaR "%{NAME}[%-8{REQUIRENAME}\n]"
The results, though, are exactly the same as those from the previous query. Anybody have any ideas how to make the output readable/usable?
—Joe, email@example.com
You need to include --qf or --queryformat immediately before your query format string. Use rpm --querytags to list all the possible tags in the version of RPM you have.
—Don Marti, firstname.lastname@example.com
I have Red Hat 7.2 on a Gateway PC with an ATI RADEON 8500. I installed XFree86 on a number of systems, but I'm stumped with this one. Initially, I set up /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 to use the RADEON driver and according to the log, it loads that driver as well as the ATI driver and a bunch more. All appears to be fine until the end; then it says:
(II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0 (EE) No devices detected. Fatal server error: no screens found
Any ideas?
—Chris Carlson, email@example.com
To rule out configuration errors, try using an /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 generated by Xconfigurator.
—Christopher Wingert, email@example.com
You may need to upgrade your XFree86 to 4.2 (stock Red Hat 7.2 comes with XFree86 4.1), which includes support for your ATI RADEON. See www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/Status6.html#6.
—Felipe Barousse Boué, email@example.com
I encountered a corrupted / filesystem last June. I tried to repair the filesystem (running fsck) but was unable to recover it, so I re-installed Red Hat 7.2. After a month, the same thing happened. Now we are trying to find out if this problem is hardware- or software-related. How can I find out?
—Bing, email@example.com
If you have a stock Red Hat box (i.e., no custom software), it is unlikely to be the RH distribution. I would suspect your hard drive is about to fail.
—Christopher Wingert, email@example.com
Are you shutting down correctly? If you hit the power switch while a lot is happening, that could corrupt two installs in two months.
—Don Marti, email@example.com
Check your logs, especially /var/log/messages, for any indication of disk or disk controller failures or mishaps. If you're re-installing Linux, run the "check for disk bad blocks" option, which makes a more in-depth check of your disk.
—Felipe Barousse Boué, email@example.com
It's almost certainly the hardware. Other possibilities include an overclocked CPU or motherboard, turning the power off without shutting down, overheating and so on.
—Ben Ford, email@example.com
1) Next time you install, make two root partitions, one called / and one called /safe. Copy the content of / to /safe every so often, and make sure LILO or GRUB is able to boot from there. That way you won't be dead in the water if this happens again. 2) It's hard to say if it's hardware or software without more information. Consider switching to a journaling filesystem, such as ext3, so your system can recover more easily if you have problems.
—Marc Merlin, email@example.com
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Residents of North Pinellas County now have a permanent memorial honoring the victims of the September 11 attacks.
The large crowd that turned out at Curlew Hills Memory Gardens in Palm Harbor for Tuesday's unveiling of the memorial was proof of the community's strong desire to remember those killed in the attacks.
A thousand programs were printed for the memorial, and all were distributed to guests shortly after 9 a.m. When the ceremony started at 10:02 a.m., cars were still backed up on Curlew Road almost all the way to U.S. 19 waiting to get in.
"There were easily 1,000 to 1,500 people at the memorial," said Keenan Knopke, president of Curlew Hills Memory Gardens.
The 9/11 memorial was more than a year in the making. It features a rusty steel beam pulled from the wreckage of the World Trade Center. The beam is mounted between two granite towers that represent the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. The courtyard memorial also includes granite monuments bearing the names of those killed in the attacks. Other granite markers honor victims on the downed planes.
The ceremony was emotional for those who worked tirelessly to make the permanent memorial a reality.
Knopke's voice quivered when he addressed the audience, asking those who had lost loved ones to stand.
Palm Harbor Fire Chief James Angle fought back tears as he introduced his longtime friend, Battalion Chief Michael Gala Jr. of the New York Fire Department. When Angle choked up and struggled to speak, the audience showed its support for him with a heartwarming round of applause.
Of course, the memorial had a special meaning for many in the audience.
Marge Stajk, 82, of Lithia, lost her son, nephew and two cousins in the attacks. She and her daughter, Ellen Shelnutt, of Valrico, drove to Palm Harbor for the ceremony. Stajk brought a framed photo of her son, Gregory Stajk, 46, who was with Ladder 13 in Manhattan and died while trying to save people in the North Tower. Stajk and her daughter found Gregory's name on one of the granite monuments at the memorial.
"He was a great kid," she said of her son.
"The ceremony was very nice. We are so glad we came," said Stajk.
Palm Harbor resident Janie Hirsch held a piece of paper on one of the granite monuments and used a pencil to etch over the name of Peter Gilfield, a firefighter she "adopted" by making a $100 donation that went toward construction of the memorial.
"I'm a native New Yorker. It still hurts," she said, sobbing. "I lost 12 people in the towers."
Firefighters from many other Pinellas County communities honored their fallen comrades by attending or participating in the memorial.
East Lake and Palm Harbor Fire Rescue's Honor Guards presented the colors, raised and lowered the flag, and tolled the bell. Palm Harbor Fire Rescue Commissioner Julie Peluso addressed the audience. Palm Harbor Fire Rescue Chaplain Rev. Milton Smith gave the invocation. Clearwater Fire and Rescue Chaplain Dr. Aaron Walp gave the benediction.
Other participants included:
- The City of Dunedin Pipe Band, which performed in the procession and also performed "Amazing Grace."
- The Ozona Elementary Choir, which performed "I'm Proud to be an American."
- WFLA radio's Jack Harris was the Master of Ceremonies.
- Lowry Park Zoo's "Cyrus the Eagle" participated in the procession and ceremony.
The 9/11 memorial will be open to the public. Curlew Hills Memory Gardens is located at 1750 Curlew Road; 727-789-2000.

I grew up with WKSU. I remember listening to 89.7 as a kid, already fed-up with bland commercial radio, thrilled to experience WKSU's Fresh Air for the first time. Later I discovered 'grown-up' music—classical and folk—that existed far beyond the mind-numbing and pervasive Top 40. While my classmates stuck with Van Halen, Journey, and Styx I rebelled against the status quo by listening to Beethoven, Mozart, and Bela Fleck on WKSU.
A career in radio was a surprising turn for me seeing that my first love was, and still is, science. I studied Chemistry at the University of Akron and for 13 years lived the quiet life of an analytical chemist in the Akron area... listening to WKSU in the lab all the while. Over time, I found myself more absorbed in what was on the radio than on the experiments in front of me. Several small explosions and chemical spills helped me decide that it was time to look for a way out of the lab. I studied theater and voice, began appearing in plays, commercials and small films hoping for the long-shot career of an actor. Not wishing to starve in the mean-time, I landed a part-time position at WKSU and began hosting the Sunday local performance show, In Performance. The magic of radio did its work on me, and in December 2000 I permanently shed the lab-coat to join WKSU full-time and have never looked back.
I'm now hosting Morning Edition, and contributing WKSU news reports on subjects ranging from Younstown boxer Kelly Pavlik to the backyard songs of crickets and katydids. I love doing news. It's perfect for someone like me - intensely curious ( i.e. nosy) and with a short attention span - "...on to the next story!" I'm grateful I've finally found my niche.
WKSU is one of those rare places where creativity and technology come together to create a product that touches your intellect and your soul—it makes you laugh and carries you through times of reflection. Maybe a kid listening today will be inspired to make the world a better place because of something he or she heard on WKSU. I'm extremely proud to be part of one of the best stations in the public radio system.
I enjoy living in Kent along with my wife, Marta, and my three wonderful children.

The Chronicle
Pella — STEMconnector®, the One-Stop for "who" is doing "what" in STEM education and careers, released the official list and cover for its 100 CEO Leaders in STEM publication, including Mary Vermeer-Andringa, President and Chief Executive Officer at Vermeer Corporation located in Pella. The unprecedented publication presents 100 corporate CEO profiles including their thought provoking views on the future of our national competitiveness and need for a STEM workforce. The CEO's center their discussions around technology; innovation; skills to careers; public-private partnerships; women, girls and diversity; global competitiveness; scalability and best practice. STEMconnector® CEO Edie Fraser suggests that the 100 CEO Leaders in STEM represents the best thinking at the highest level and states, "It is all about CEO commitment. We are collectively humbled by the caliber of the entries and salute and congratulate all of those included. We urge all readers to review and discuss what you learn understanding the collective action we must all take to ensure America's youth and workforce are equipped with the STEM skills needed to compete in the market economy. Let me take a minute also and salute my colleague, Lorena Fimbres, for her enormous vision and effort as our team knew the importance of this publication and its potential impact."
100 CEO Leaders in STEM Sponsors include KPMG; Cisco; Raytheon; Dow Chemical; PTC; TATA Consultancy Services and University of Phoenix. The publication partners are US News; Business-Higher Education Forum; The Manufacturing Institute and Fortune Magazine.
The publication itself was presented for the first time on June 18th in the frame of the 2013 STEM Solutions Summit, presented by US News and World Report in Austin, TX.

One event to put on the calendar is a national Town Hall Conference Call on September 25th (2:00-3:30PM ET) that will include twelve of the CEOs as speakers. Sign up for STEMconnector®'s STEMdaily® to ensure you get the latest news regarding the 100 CEO Leaders in STEM (www.STEMconnector.org). STEMconnector®, and its partners, have aligned a full year calendar of events and promotion that will build on the issue of the need for more corporate CEOs pushing the STEM agenda.
100 CEO Leaders in STEM comes after the 100 Women Leaders in STEM 2012 publication and its objective is to salute and celebrate an active group of CEOs that have contributed to making a difference by pushing the STEM issue throughout their careers, their industries and their companies.
The selection process included mapping over 300 CEOs and thorough research was conducted to collect material in three aspects: 1) CEO's background and career; 2) Company's STEM position within the industry and 3) Company's specific items and lines of action around STEM. All CEOs had to agree to be profiled and provide insightful interviews about the issue.

Hollywood and Christianity often seem to be at war. There is a long list of movies that have attracted religious condemnation, from Gone with the Wind with its notorious "damn," to The Life of Brian and The Last Temptation of Christ.
In his latest book, historian and award-winning commentator William Romanowski explores the complicated and remarkable relationship between Protestants and the American film industry. In it he reveals the surprising story of how mainline church leaders opposed government censorship, preferring instead self-regulation by both the industry and individual conscience.
William Romanowski is Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences at Calvin College. His books include Reforming Hollywood: American Protestants and the Movies, Eyes Wide Open: Looking for God in Popular Culture (a 2002 ECPA Gold Medallion Award Winner) and Pop Culture Wars: Religion and the Role of Entertainment in America Life.

This was some old school gang bang that does not hold up to modern recordings. Girls were ok, not too hot, some seemed liked they were not enjoying it
This is a French movie with English voice overs. THe women are good looking, but just a horrible film to watch. May wife and I could not finish it.
My wife and I love Jameson movies, but this one sucked. No story just weak sex action. The camera angles wear not good either.
This movie was a little disappointing. Women were okay, but guys were dorks not very enjoyable for my wife. Sex scenes were basically just more of the same.
Not very good. The first scene drove me crazy as they drove around town in a van with noisy windshield wipers that made more noise then the chic talking. Sex scenes were really boring.
I'm new to this series and my wife found it interesting. We kind of liked making jokes about the wives in the movie. We found it funny that a wife was getting double penetration and was barely phased by it. We highly doubted it was her first time, but this fun to watch.
The move was okay. The Chics were decent looking, but action was a little week. Obviously not much of a story
Jenna Haze just cannot get enough of her. She is definitely one of the hottest in the business. She loves her job or a least she knows how to act like she loves it. She definitely gets my wife and excited. A good couples pick
My wife enjoyed the good lucking guys. Chicks were hot. I did not care for the background music because it drowned out the moans.
My wife and I were not to entertained by this one. Some sceens had very poor lighting. This was suppose to a highly rated movie for viewers, but my wife lost interest fast

A Lift n' Lock system allows you to easily and securely attach the panel to the mount. From there, you can adjust the mount however you need to get the perfect picture. To ensure that you can get the placement of the TV "just right" no matter your situation, the NC200C tilts, pans, swivels, extends up to two feet from the wall, offers almost six inches of sliding lateral adjustment, and features built-in screen leveling.

What do right-wing billionaire Charles Koch, film director Clint Eastwood and Santa Rosa businessman Victor Trione have in common?
The answer, according to WikiLeaks, the secrecy-busting website, is that they are among 2,260 men on the Bohemian Grove guest list for 2008.
Trione, chairman of Luther Burbank Savings, said he was unimpressed with the citation by WikiLeaks and unabashed by his connection with the secretive Bohemian Club.
"Yeah, absolutely, I'm a member," said Trione, who's attended the club's annual summer encampment at the grove in Monte Rio since the mid-1990s. "I love it."
Trione was one of six men with Sonoma County connections listed as summer camp "guests" by WikiLeaks, whose founder, Julian Assange, has sought asylum in the Ecuadorian embassy in London and has been labeled a traitor and a spy by U.S. politicians.
WikiLeaks issued 12 tweets this week celebrating the weekend box office flop of the movie "The Fifth Estate," an unflattering portrait of Assange and his organization.
The Bohemian Grove list is misnamed, according to Peter Phillips, a Sonoma State University sociologist who did his dissertation on Bohemian Grove.
WikiLeaks' posting is a membership list for the San Francisco-based club founded in 1872, not a guest list, Phillips said.
Club members invite guests to the summer retreat, and the club stopped releasing the guest list in the early 1990s, he said.
Activists have demonstrated at the Bohemian Grove gates for years, with complaints ranging from the event's secrecy to allegations that the rich and powerful campers are plotting capitalist schemes or worse, engaging in devil worship.
"I don't even think that deserves comment," Trione said, regarding the darker imaginings.
The five other men on WikiLeaks' list are auto dealer Henry Hansel, Petaluma composer Nolan Gasser, Occidental musician Mickey Hart, former Dolby Laboratories CEO Bill Jasper of Sonoma and the late Evert Person, former publisher of The Press Democrat who died in 2011.

Rear view mirror keeps "resetting" 05 yukon xl
I noticed a few weeks ago that my rear view mirror keeps "resetting". When it does this it looks like it does when you first start the truck. The compass and temp display ***, the green power light turn on and off, and the passenger airbag "on/off" lights also turn on/off. It only did it a few times and stopped. I have not noticed it again until today. It started doing it every 5 minutes or so. I am wondering if this is a common problem and what the cause may be! My 03 Yukon XL did the same thing. On that truck it was consistent with it being hot outside (above 85 degrees) and when it would "reset" it would do it constantly. When it was cold out it would act as expected. Could it be the temp sensor? Any other ideas? Thanks

Well, I know, rarely, when the temperature gets very cold outside (ice forming on the truck,) my mirror will sometimes shut off completely until it gets warmer. It's only happened maybe 6 times, and I think that was all in one or two road trips. I wonder if too much water/ice in the temperature sensor might short something that shuts it down until it's cleared out? I'm not sure myself. I wish I had more advice, but I haven't really bothered with the issue, since it doesn't happen normally. Granted, it's a lot colder in Michigan, so I thought that might contribute. Good luck!Don't lose your mind trying to set it free.

Evansville Courier & Press
HENDERSON, Ky. —
While there is progress on building Interstate 69, there is a huge problem of bridging the Ohio River, Kentucky's new I-69 project manager said Thursday.
"I wish I had a good word to say" about the proposed bridge, Gary Valentine of the state Transportation Cabinet told the breakfast meeting of the Henderson Chamber of Commerce.
The latest cost estimate, which dates from 2008, is $1.4 billion for the Ohio River crossing and its related highway approaches. "Right now, it's not an affordable project for us.
"To be honest, $1.4 billion is very challenging in these times," said Valentine, adding that the gas tax doesn't cover costs like it once did.
Kentucky's six-year road plan, which guides all state highway construction, provides $1 million to study ways to make the bridge more affordable and Valentine said he thinks costs can be shaved, but a toll might be necessary.
The preferred corridor branches off from the Pennyrile Parkway south of Henderson "what I consider way early," which will require the construction of about nine miles of new highway at a cost of about $10 million a mile. He said highway officials will look at branching off closer to Henderson.
"The only thing we can do is figure out a way to make it more affordable and then find a magic bullet to fund the thing," Valentine said.
That would probably mean some type of toll bridge.
Valentine gave some ball-park estimates on what kind of toll prices motorists could expect on a new bridge, based on what is being proposed for the new bridges at Louisville. The rates being looked at there are $1 for a frequent user.
"In preliminary studies we defined a frequent user as someone who used the bridge 20 times a month in both directions."
Nonfrequent users would pay $2, while the price would be $5 for "box-type trucks and commercial-type trucks" and $10 for tractor-trailer rigs.
Other than the bridge problem, Valentine said, the I-69 project in Kentucky is moving pretty well — as long as the General Assembly maintains funding.
"I have $155 million showing in the six-year plan [with] $70 million in this biennium. There will be several construction projects you'll see on I-69 on both the Pennyrile and the Purchase parkways over the next two to three years. Those projects will allow I-69 to be under shield [interstate signs] from Mayfield to Henderson."

U.S. health care costs are the highest in the world and growing at an unsustainable rate. March 4's Time magazine offers 37 pages that describe why our costs are excessive and what can be done to lower them.
The good
Local health care providers, particularly hospitals and personal physicians, are among our most respected assets and institutions. We need them when we're most vulnerable. The Joplin area medical communities did heroic work in the wake of the May 22, 2011, tornado, providing many millions of dollars' worth of uncompensated care to the community.
The bad and the ugly
Sadly, there are big down sides to the way these favored institutions ordinarily function, and we rank below other developed nations in medical outcomes, according to our own National Research Council and Institute of Medicine.
Our health care costs increase far faster than inflation, and are now nearly 18 percent of gross domestic product. Federal health initiatives, including Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans Administration, the Department of Defense military health system (including Tricare), are largely taxpayer-supported. Costs of these systems contribute directly to our national debt.
We pay far too much for our health care and, on average, get mediocre results. Why?
Our problems
There's decreasing local competition among health care providers. Costs to patients are rigged by both government and large providers. Major hospital systems use "list price books" — called "the chargemaster" — for services to customers who aren't insured, cannot understand what they're being overcharged for and have little ability to negotiate.
Medicare seems the only national insurer with enough clout to determine actual costs of services and materials to providers, and to negotiate payment based on costs. That's good — it saves taxpayer money. Medicare provides more health care bang for the buck than any other organization, public or private.
"Not-for-profit" health care systems often make far more money than it costs to provide their services. Nationally, some small percentage of this "profit" is used to provide free community medical care. You can look up your own not-for-profit hospital's revenue, expenses and spending for free at www.guidestar.org.
For-profit health care insurance companies, long the whipping boys for exorbitant costs and poor care, are becoming victims of the health care providers they pay on our behalf. Drug companies are insulated from price competition by Congress in Medicare Part D. Small "family doc" practices are increasingly unviable financially.
"Obamacare" provides more health care coverage to vastly more citizens and more customers to private insurance companies, but it does little to reduce the cost of products and services.
We overuse medical services and products that we can't price and don't pay for directly from our own pockets.
Congress is firmly in the grip of well-funded special interest groups. Nonetheless, some solutions seem at least tenable, if we demand them from our political representatives.
We should think about health care cost reduction with a question: "What sort of society do we want to create and live in?"
If you:
• Follow Christ's many exhortations to uplift and protect the least among us, or
• Believe in "free markets" and deficit reduction, or
• Think government has a duty to rein in monopolies and "chargemaster" excesses, or
• Believe each of us should pay graduated out-of-pocket payment for health care, or
• Think local "family docs" should be paid well and made financially viable, then:
You have strong reason to push your legislative representatives to attain your goals.
There seems no good reason we cannot have the world's best, most cost-effective health care. To get it, we'll have to become knowledgeable, make decisions, take action and stay engaged over the long haul. That's a tall order. It's much easier to be told what to do by our religious, political, media and organizational leaders.
We should strive for equitable distribution of health care costs and services to all citizens. Help fix this massive problem.
Dick Thompson, formerly of Joplin, now lives in Pittsburg, Kan.

Kids are tallying all the candy they received on Halloween night. Channel Six visited a home on 33rd and Frances, where one of the owners dressed up and hid in a coffin.
Some very cute kids were trick-or-treating in the neighborhood hoping to fill up their bags with as many treats as possible. Parents say Halloween is a special time when they allow their kids to indulge.
"You can dole it out as the weeks and days go by," says Samantha White. "Just make sure they say thank you and happy Halloween at the end"
Parents we spoke to say Halloween isn't just about costumes and candy, but is also a good photo-op for their kids.

Recent Wakeboard News
Big Texas: Wake Star Amber Wing Triumphs at PWT Fort Worth Stop, Harley Clifford Grabs Second
The Pro Wakeboard Tour hit Texas. And as expected, it was big. Case in point: Oakley Wake Team Star Amber Wing, whose 66.77 score topped fellow O Team Ripper Nicola Butler to take command of the Pro Women's Queen of Wake point standings (290 points). "I thought Nicola had it; I was cheering for her," Amber said, rocking her Oakley gear and eyewear. "But I did my run, stood up both my passes and came out on top. I'm really pumped to win this tour stop." In the Pro Men's Division, O's young phenom Harley Clifford threw down as always amidst a talent-packed heat in the finals – including fellow Oakley rider and rail master Oli Derome. Harley's 95.00 score after a killer run seemed to have seal the deal. But the former King of Wake Points Leader was edged by Phil Soven, whose 95.50 narrowly took the victory.
Peachy: Wakeboard Star Harley Clifford and Shota Tezuka Dominate First Pro Tour Stop in Georgia
The O just keeps on rollin'. This time, in the land of peaches. Hordes of Wake fans packed the shores of Lake Allatoona at Dallas Landing Park today to catch the final rounds of action at the MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour stop in Acworth, Ga. On the heels of a season-opening victory at Wakegames, Oakley's young star Harley Clifford dominated the Pro Men's field – while O's young Japanese up and comer Shota Tezuka grabbed the victory in the Jr. Pro Men Division. The final day in Acworth saw the field of 20 riders narrow down to six for the last round of action. But none were any match for O's Aussie phenom.
Killer Start: Harley Clifford Opens Season with Wake Games Victory, Amber Wing Takes Women's Win
How do you know Oakley's poised for a monster season? Claiming bold victories in both the Men's and Women's Wakeboard contests at the Wake Games in Orlando is a pretty damn good sign. Oakley's young phenom Harley Clifford, who hauled in a boatload of recognition and hardware last season, came out of the gates on fire this year as he grabbed a resounding win in the Men's Pro Division following a solid first run in the finals – all in his new technologically advanced boardshorts, the Blade 2. Fellow Aussie and Oakley Team Rider Amber Wing snatched her own victory in the Women's Pro Division to place the Big O atop the field.
